New Dream of Red Mansions

Jia Huan is not material for reading. If Jia Baoyu has the talent for reading but not the heart for reading, then Jia Huan has the heart for reading but not the talent for reading. On this point, Xiyan has to admit that Jia Huan Inheriting Jia Zheng's IQ is not material for studying.

Tanchun has always been a decisive person. Although she still had many conflicts with Aunt Zhao in the past few years, she still obeyed Xiyan's advice and strongly intervened in his education for this younger brother.

Now the servant next to Jia Huan has been bought by Tanchun, and Jia Huan is not like what Aunt Zhao said before. At least now Jia Huan is not annoying. People are disgusted, and they are a lot more generous in dealing with things.

Tanchun started to plan his future since he knew that Jia Huan might not go far on the way to study, and Jia Huan and Mingming were more interested in money, but because he was still young, Jia Huan was still studying in the academy .

Although Jia Huan may not rely on the imperial examinations in the future, Tanchun still hopes that he can read more books. Hearing that he didn't go to the academy today, he wanted to go and see what was going on.

Baoyu didn't go to school today, and went to the back room early to play chess with Daiyu. When Xiyan came back, she couldn't help frowning, "Baoyu, you didn't go to school."

Baoyu begged for mercy and said, "My dear sister, I have read what the gentleman said about the mean today. I only come to play two games of chess with Sister Lin. I will definitely go to school tomorrow."

Xiyan opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything after all, but after Baoyu left, Xiyan pulled Daiyu and said, "We are getting older every day, although Baoyu is like an elder brother, don't let him be immobile in the future." Just go into the house, and when we play together in the future, we will be with the sisters, or go to the old lady."

Daiyu knew that Xiyan didn't like Baoyu's unmotivated appearance, and she was afraid that he would spoil Brother Yu. Now that she has a younger brother, she also understood the feeling, and nodded when she heard that, "Got it, I'll go to the old lady next time." Play there."

Daiyu is still keeping her filial piety now, and she doesn't like going out to play, so she has been staying in the house for a while, and only went out for a while when Xiyan took her for a walk. Usually, the sisters came to look for her. she played.

Xiyan also knew that she just talked about it.

Wang Ziteng asked: "Have you found out who said what to the emperor?"

Steward Wang shook his head, "Eunuch Su said he didn't know either, but the servant looked at him as if it was inconvenient to say."

"Could it be that I offended someone unintentionally?" Wang Ziteng frowned and thought, but he didn't have a thought in the end. How can he be in his position without one or two enemies, but he thinks they don't have that ability. Let Eunuch Su keep silent.

"Forget it, now that the matter is over, don't think too much about it." Wang Ziteng waved his hand and said, "You go and send a post to Jia's mansion. I'll go to the mansion tomorrow to see my aunt, sister Feng, sister Yan and Brother You."

Steward Wang responded.

Wang Ziteng's feelings for Wang Xiyan and Brother You are complicated. He really never thought about letting Wang Xiyan and Brother You adopt him.For his half brother Wang Zifei, he is more of a kind of indifference.

Since childhood, he has been loved by his father. Even if Wang Zifei is the youngest son, his father loves him the most. For this youngest son, his father is more indifferent.

He and his second brother were enlightened by his father himself, only Wang Zifei was enlightened by the master of the family school, and the age difference between him and Wang Zifei was too big. When he was already taking over the uncle's mansion, Wang Zifei had just grown up. big.Moreover, his father quickly separated Wang Zifei after he obtained his honor in the exam. He didn't spend much time with this younger brother, so he was just a familiar stranger.

But Wang Zifei is undoubtedly excellent. In his future political career, he always heard the name of this younger brother from different people. He was cut off by his father, but he succeeded in business with the name of second place. Great river north and south.

There are always people in the officialdom who secretly compare him with him, and his political opponents criticize him even more. It's not that Wang Ziteng has never been angry, but his anger is always like hitting cotton when it meets the indifferent and gentle Wang Zifei. .

The Wang family has always been in charge of the Shibo Department. Even if they don’t rely on the Zhuangzi shop at home, the money is enough for the prince. The Wang family’s children are also used to being extravagant. , but it has decreased by more than four-fifths, plus the shortfall left by the early years... Wang Ziteng felt a little sad.

Wang Zifei left behind a lot of things, the key is that there is a salt field among them. As long as these industries are well managed, the Wang family may be able to pay off the deficit in another ten or eight years. What the Jin family did to Wang Xiyan's sister and brother He had also heard about it, but it was a matter of the back house, and he had no reason to care about it.

Wang Ziteng's mood suddenly became a little gloomy. No matter how anxious he was to spend money, he would never use the dowry of his stepmother and sister-in-law. So what kind of person has Wang Ziteng become?However, the Jin family was preoccupied with scheming, and for some reason, all the letters sent to him by the family and the Jin family were replaced by someone, and he still hasn't found out who it is until today.

Wang Zifei is dead, no matter how smart he is, it is impossible to calculate what happened today, if it wasn't him, it couldn't be Xiyan sister and brother, right?Wang Ziteng shook his head mockingly. It seems that only his political enemies are left now, but Wang Ziteng is a little uncertain. He always feels that something is wrong, but he can't say what is wrong. The relationship between Xiyan's siblings is too tense.Who knows what backhand Wang Zifei kept in the dark?

That person is so smart, how could he entrust his children to him without any grievances?Wang Ziteng thought he couldn't do this.

When Mrs. Wang heard that her elder brother was coming the next day, she quickly sent a letter to Xiyan, asking her to call Brother You back to see his uncle.

Xiyan snorted coldly, and agreed. After Mrs. Wang's people left, Xiyan said to Chunlan: "Go to Anping Street yourself, and tell Brother Yu not to come back today, and not to come back tomorrow."

Chunlan's eyes widened, "Girl?"

Dongmei calmly nodded her forehead and said, "Idiot, don't hurry up."

Xiyan looked at Dongmei approvingly, "After all, you are more courageous than Chunlan. Don't look at her bluffing, she can only scare outsiders."

Chunlan pouted and left unconvinced.

After the people left, Dongmei said worriedly: "Girl, will it be against the Elder Master..."

"No," Xi Yan said with a smile: "Since Uncle came to see us, he naturally wanted to seek peace. What does it matter if Brother You comes or not? It's just for outsiders to see." What's more, Wang Ziteng has already It's not their uncle anymore.

Wang Ziteng met Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng, so he proposed to talk to Brother Xiyanyou alone.

Xiyan was a little embarrassed and said: "Uncle, Brother Yu was left behind by their husband yesterday, and today I heard that he is going to a temple, so..."

Wang Ziteng waved his hands warmly and said: "Brother Yu's study is important, I just told him a few words in vain, he is not here, it is the same to tell you."

Xiyan respectfully got up and listened.

Wang Ziteng waved his hands indifferently and said: "There is no need to be so formal, now there are only two uncles and nephews in the room, why should we care about these trivial formalities?"

Having said that, Xiyan respectfully sat on only half of it. Wang Ziteng smiled in satisfaction. Looking at Wang Xiyan who was wringing her fingers a little nervously, Wang Ziteng sighed and said, "I have wronged you."

Xiyan's eyes were slightly red, she shook her head and said, "My niece is not wronged."

Wang Ziteng sighed: "Your aunt did something wrong. At that time, my uncle couldn't receive the news and missed the time to stop it. Now my uncle has punished her. The uncle wanted to take you over again, but your third grandfather and six Grandpa likes you siblings very much and won't let go. Uncle is helpless now. You and Brother Yu don't need to be discouraged. Uncle will always be your uncle. If you have any difficulties in the future, just ask Brother Yu to come to me. I just can't find it for a while. I can also find your third uncle."

Xiyan lowered her head and responded.

Wang Ziteng continued: "I heard that brother Yu is studying well now, but my uncle knows some old gentlemen from Baitan Academy. If brother Yu wants to go, uncle can recommend one or two for him."

Xiyan said gratefully: "There are more uncles, but I don't understand these things, I have to wait for Brother You to come back and ask him, but I heard Brother You said that Mr. Chen taught very well, and he taught a lot. Everyone wants to pay homage to Mr. Chen's door."

Wang Ziteng nodded and said: "Mr. Chen is indeed good, but the academy also has the benefits of the academy. If Brother Yu goes to the academy, he will meet more people, which will be more beneficial to his future career."

This is indeed the truth, but Brother You is still young, Xiyan doesn't want Brother You to put more energy on it, not to mention that there are not many friends.

But Wang Ziteng's words were indeed for Brother You's sake, and Xiyan thanked him very solemnly.

Wang Ziteng said a few more words of comfort, then took out a purse and handed it to Xiyan, saying: "Nowadays you spend a lot of money in Rongguo Mansion, this money is just a little thought from uncle, you can use it to buy some pens and inks, just use it to buy money. It doesn't matter if you have some food and clothing, if you don't have enough money in the future, you can ask someone to ask uncle for it."

Xiyan hastily declined and said: "We still have a monthly payment here, and we don't need to spend money on food and clothing, so why should we use uncle's money? Uncle should put it away quickly."

Wang Ziteng stuffed it in her hand indifferently, and said: "The elder dare not resign, you just keep it, it is more or less uncle's wish."

Xiyan immediately became grateful and grateful. After sending Wang Ziteng away with a smile, she turned around and put away her smile. She opened her purse and saw that there were 200 taels of silver in it.

Xi Yan shook her head and smiled, it seemed that Marquis Pingyang's previous actions had indeed frightened him.

In Xiyan's impression, Wang Ziteng was never stingy, on the contrary, the other party was kind and generous. If he hadn't spent money lavishly, the Wang family wouldn't have gotten into trouble so quickly, and he wouldn't have held the money firmly. In her hands, the money in Jin's hands does not exceed ten thousand taels, so that she has to do everything possible to calculate the dowry left by her grandmother and mother.

But it is still a lot to give two children 200 taels of silver at once, after all, he also said that it is pocket money.
