New Dream of Red Mansions
Chapter 57
Mrs. Wang's brows were almost pale these days, she dropped the account book in her hand, thought for a while, and took the list written by Jia Zheng to find Jia Mu.
A few days ago, she had already proposed to temporarily borrow Daiyu's shops. As long as they sell well and the power of the Jia family, they might be able to sell for about 55 taels, but the old lady refused to agree no matter what.
Mrs. Wang decided to persuade her again tonight. How can I say that it is the honor of the whole family for a noble concubine to visit relatives, and there is no reason why only his family should pay for it.
Mother Jia closed her eyes slightly, and glanced at Mrs. Wang, who was pleasing to the eye, feeling a little annoyed in her heart, and said, "Those shops are not only owned by Daiyu, but also those who gave birth to a brother. Back then, Uncle Lin entrusted us with things because he could trust us." Old woman, there is no reason for us to embezzle it ourselves. If it was only Yu'er's, the old woman would talk to Yu'er if she was ashamed, but now she can't. You don't need to talk about it. Last time you embezzled the money from Yan girl on your own initiative , I didn’t know at first, and if I knew, I would definitely not agree. Their siblings lost their parents when they were young. No matter how difficult our family is, our family is not as difficult as them. I still have several shops in my dowry. Take them, and then Make up more, if it is not enough, I can only think of a way with the bank." Jia Mu looked at her pointedly and said: "The imperial concubine is my granddaughter, so I feel sorry for her, she is also your daughter, you also You have to feel sorry for yourself.”
Mrs. Wang blushed.
Jia Mu looked at her back with a worried expression on her face.Although she has been away from home for a long time, she is not a woman who knows nothing. Even if Rongguo Mansion has lost its former glory, the money is still available.
The two daughters-in-law were on guard against each other. The Zhang family of the Xing family kept putting money into their own pockets. Although the Wang family was more respectable, their methods were much better than the Xing family. In recent years, she took money from the Jia family. With the money she left, plus her dowry, she herself was unwilling to take out the money, and kept staring at the money of the girls in her family.
Thinking of this, Jia's mother felt a tight pain in her chest. A good mistress can benefit three generations of children and grandchildren, but her two daughters-in-law are a bit out of place.
Sister Feng is capable, but the child is too cruel, and Mother Jia is not at ease to hand over the family to her.
But Mrs. Wang who went out was very angry in her heart. Didn't she send Jia Lian and Zhou Rui down because she wanted to take over the property of the Lin family?She calculated in private that the Lin family's property was at least one million yuan, which she deduced based on the old lady's and Jia Min's letters and the news from her subordinates.
But who knew that the Lin family would suddenly want to adopt a child, that's all, and even divided the property into two for safekeeping.
Daiyu has lived in Jia's house for so many years, and her food and clothing expenses are compared with Baoyu's. Even sisters Tanchun are not as good as her, so why not use some of her money temporarily?
As for Xiyan, Mrs. Wang's eyes flashed with disgust. If she, the aunt, hadn't come forward to protect them and protect their siblings in Jia's house, they might have fallen to where they would have ended up.
Mrs. Wang thought about it, she was not reconciled, she took Daiyu's hand and complained when Daiyu came to pay her respects, to build such a big garden, which of the flowers, fruits, stones and water does not cost money?
What's more, there are house decorations, such as silk and satin inside, Mrs. Wang frowned, and sighed: "In the past, when your elder sister was useless in the palace, the family was worried that they would not be able to eat, but now she has to be a noble concubine." , Your Majesty let her go home to visit relatives with great kindness, but the family can't afford so much money, your aunt is so anxious."
Xi Yan sat aside and listened with a sneer in her heart.
They live in the Rongguo Mansion, no matter what the reason for coming here is, they are indeed protected by the Rongguo Mansion, and their life in the Jia family is not bad. If Mrs. Wang tells them well, the two of them One is not necessarily unwilling to contribute.
It's just that the Jia family has dirty minds and shouldn't be plotting against them secretly.
Daiyu naturally heard Mrs. Wang's voice-over, but just as Jia's mother said, the money was not hers alone, but hers and her brother's. She had to discuss with Lin Yuan what to do, and her father said However, when in doubt, I would listen to the opinions of my grandmother Lin Yuan and Xi Yan.
But Daiyu had already decided to spend a sum of money in her heart, and her father gave her a lot of money before he died.
Mrs. Wang saw that Daiyu's heart was loose, so she let the sisters go.
Xiyan walked beside Daiyu and asked, "How is sister going?"
"I lived in the mansion since I was a child. Although I was a guest, my grandmother treated me very well, and my uncle and aunt also treated me very well. Now that Jia's mansion is in trouble, I should naturally do my part. It's just how much I have to give, and I have to talk to my grandmother. Brother discussed it, what does my sister think."
Xiyan nodded and said: "That's right, just remember, you and your son only have this 100 million family assets. It's not certain how much you will have left when you grow up. You should also leave some permanent property. In the future, you and your son Brother also has something to rely on."
Daiyu looked at Xiyan in surprise, Xiyan looked at Daiyu quietly and said: "People in the house say that Brother Yu and I are generous, but in fact, we just took the money left by our father to send those servants away. That's all."
With a jump in her heart, Daiyu knew that Xiyan was warning her not to take out the money her father secretly left for her.Daiyu thought of her father's last instructions, and solemnly thanked Xiyan, "Thank you very much, if it wasn't for you, I'm afraid I would have disobeyed my father's instructions."
Xiyan smiled lightly, Daiyu's precautions towards Jia's mansion were only against those servants, she didn't have any sense of precaution against Jia's mother, Jia Zheng and others.
In fact, when Mrs. Wang borrowed money from Daiyu, Daiyu must borrow it. She has lived in Jia's house for too long. If she doesn't borrow money, people will only think that she is mean and ungrateful if word spreads.
"Sister, why don't you send someone to call Brother Lin and discuss it with him. It's not good for a girl to come forward. Why don't you leave it to Brother Lin. Uncle Lin entrusted you to Brother Lin to take care of you. Let him take care of these things. It would be the best thing to come forward and talk to the Jia family, not to mention, he is the brother who gave birth to a brother."
Daiyu nodded.
Lin Yuan tidied up the yard with the shop on the third day in the capital, and moved out with the twins. He only came to see Daiyu every once in a while.
Brother You still goes to school with Mr. Chen, but after school every day, most of them will live in Anping Street where the third grandfather lives, which happens to be on the same street as Mr. Chen's house.Grandpa Liu liked the son very much, and he was accepted as a disciple by Grandpa Liu. When Lin Yuan went to see Brother Sheng, he met two grandpas. The third grandpa saw that Grandpa Six and Mr. Chen both had disciples, and his heart was moved. After asking Lin Yuan what he meant, he accepted Lin Yuan as a disciple, while the twin Lin Zhi worshiped the sixth grandpa as a master, and Lin Hui worshiped under the third grandpa.
The Lin family and the Wang family got closer.
It was much easier to see Lin Yuan, so Xiyan asked Dongmei to ask a servant to go to Wang's house on Anping Street to find someone.In order to prevent Lin Yuan from being too passive, Xiyan also wrote a letter to tell Lin Yuan the cause and effect, and also wrote down what she had said to Daiyu.
Daiyu went to find Mother Jia, "... If the second aunt hadn't mentioned it, Daiyu would not have known how difficult the mansion was, and now she has sent someone to call her elder brother to come in, and Yu'er doesn't understand those general affairs, so she just let her go. Eldest brother and second aunt discuss it, but those shops are not only owned by me, but also the one who gave birth to my brother, so..."
Mother Jia pulled Daiyu into her arms pitifully, and said, "You don't have to worry about her. What are you children supposed to do? Play well in the mansion. I'll talk to your second aunt. The things are left to you by your father, how can you sell them? They will be left to you as a dowry in the future."
Daiyu blushed and lowered her head.
Mother Jia looked at Daiyu's black hair with pity, and when she looked up again, her eyes flashed sternly. It seemed that she was becoming more and more useless in this family, and that Mrs. Wang dared to go past her to find Daiyu. Did the girl say it?
A few days ago, she had already proposed to temporarily borrow Daiyu's shops. As long as they sell well and the power of the Jia family, they might be able to sell for about 55 taels, but the old lady refused to agree no matter what.

Jia Mu looked at her pointedly and said: "The imperial concubine is my granddaughter, so I feel sorry for her, she is also your daughter, you also You have to feel sorry for yourself.”
Mrs. Wang blushed.
