Rebirth of the Red Mansions: Jia Lian's way of turning over

Jia Lian had a smirk all over his face, which made Jia Amnesty really a little inexplicably excited.

Ever since he heard Lian'er's words, that bastard Jia Zheng really got tricked by him a lot!

"Father, think about it. It will definitely not be obvious in this booklet that you want an official position. No matter what official it is, it must be a real job, so as to be worthy of our grandfather's reputation. But the Imperial Academy is different. It is both expensive and scholarly. In terms of etiquette, Second Uncle prides himself on being a literati, but there are all top-ranked Scholars, so can Second Uncle like him?"

Jia Amnesty's eyes lit up when he heard this, "So in the end, he won't be able to get promoted or get well. It's just a waste of father's death care."

"It's such a father. My son is very arrogant when he hears about the people in the Hanlin Academy. So far, no one has sheltered him. Originally, the ministers were jealous of our nobles, and the second uncle insulted the Hanlin Academy. Not even a fifth-rank official knew about it." When will he be able to sit, after all, we four kings and eight princes in that place can't reach out to promote him. But it's different in the sixth department, even Uncle Lin can help him, let alone other people."

Jia Amnesty listened to his eloquent explanation, and clapped his hands, it was true. If the second child was made a high-ranking official, would he, the successor of the Rongguo Mansion, still have to rely on him?

Thinking about it this way, Jia Shege should feel a pain in his chest.

After Jia Lian finished his serious speech, he began to sneer again, "Second Uncle's entry into the Imperial Academy can be regarded as a top three in the examination. Grandfather's wishful thinking has been fulfilled. I don't know whether Grandma and Second Uncle are happy or unhappy with this result."

The corners of Jia She's mouth widened, and he decided directly, "That's the way to do it. He passed the top three in the exam, and he is worthy of the books he has read. I don't care if he is happy or not, and he came to sarcastic. Angry into internal injuries.”

After all, Jia Amnesty took the notebook and wrote it, and he couldn't wait for the pen and ink to dry before printing his private seal.

Jia Lian waited for him to arrange for someone to send the booklet away before he said again, "Father, I bought two ginseng, one for you and the other for grandfather. In this way, I was so filial and friendly that I spent all my private house, but it doesn't matter. , if my father makes a name for me in the family, it will be worth the money."

"Why do you suddenly love that thing, you little bastard? You're not afraid of your grandmother and that vicious woman Wang?" Jia She took the two senators and took a closer look, "Well, they are all of good vintages. Your grandfather might really use them Got it."

Thinking of his dying grandfather, Jia Lian lowered his eyelids.

"Isn't my son trying to vent his anger on the eldest family? Usually, the second householders are filial and considerate and have a long history. Our eldest family is a dude and one is not good-looking, but the matter of attacking the noble is right now, so we need to make something nice. Otherwise, the title would be lowered a lot, and people might say what to say."

As soon as Jia She heard the word Xijue, Jia She quickly sat up straight, "That's right, without a good reputation, the title has indeed been lowered a lot, so it seems that the master has to go to the main house to fulfill his filial piety, and your little reputation for filial piety will be given to you by the way." You do it."

"Father, the son is not only filial, but also friendly to his elder brother. I forgot the book my son gave Jia Zhu a while ago? It cost 300 taels."

"Understood, why do you have so many things to do, kid, get out of here quickly."

"Father, you can't be careful. You can't dress too brightly recently, and you can't look good. It's better to eat more vegetables and lose two catties. The name of filial piety can't be escaped, even grandma can't say it." What is it?"

After all, Jia Lian snatched his two ginseng, and said with a smile, as if he didn't want to keep any of them, "Master, I have offended you."

"You little bastard is gloating, hurry up and get out of my way!! Let me put down this gin too!"

"Father, don't you still lack ginseng? Let's treat it as a reward for the boy, and the boy will be round and round."

After all, Jia Lian turned around and ran away. Jia She was so angry that he dropped a glass. He couldn't recover for a long time. He sat there and touched his beard that had just been renewed. this face.

After Jia Lian left Jia Amnesty's yard, he didn't go to other places, but when he walked to his own yard, he was a little irritable, and he didn't know why the tigress was waiting to settle accounts with him at home.

Having been bullied by that woman for half his life, now Jia Lian still has lingering fears when he thinks about it, but he is still reluctant to let go and will continue to entangle with her. If she marries someone else, he doesn't know how he feels.

In the end, she is also a poor person. The dowry was taken away and her power was taken away. There are so many masters in the Ningrong Second Mansion, but she was the only one who died in prison early. She was thrown into a mass grave without even a grave. I went back to look for it, but couldn't find it.

Thinking of this, Jia Lian sighed again.

In this life, I hope she will not trust the Wang family so blindly, and he will try his best to be her backer so that she can live a comfortable and stable life.

As soon as he returned to the courtyard and opened the curtain, Jia Lian smelled a faint scent. Zhao Nanny and Heping'er were sitting in the outer room talking happily, and when they saw him coming back, they smiled strangely, "She did it in the house." What?"

"Brother Lian, you'll know if you go and have a look." Zhao Mama pushed her hands away, but Jia Lian couldn't help it. She opened the curtain and walked into the inner room. He, such Wang Xifeng will be hard to see in the future.

"Grandpa is back? What good things do you have with you?"

"This is the ginseng that I want to honor to my grandfather. Later, you will have someone send it to the enshrined imperial physician for inspection. If there is no problem, then send it to the main house, and say that I honor it to my grandfather."

Jia Lian picked out one of them, and handed the other to Wang Xifeng, "This ginseng was originally intended to be dedicated to my father, but he didn't lack it, so I took it back and threw it for myself. They are all good ginseng, which are hard to buy outside. arrive."

Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes, and said with a half-smile, "Didn't you just come back with such a big bag of ginseng? Why are there only two left?"

"I'm not going to hide it from you. I found the big bag just now from the old lady's private treasury. Her old man can't afford that much, so it's a waste to keep it. But when people asked about my small bag, they only said it was a book. Brother Zhu Seeing that it's going to die, there must be someone in the family to take over."

"Oh, on top? Aren't you afraid to piss grandma and my aunt to death?" Before Jia Zhu left, she was trampled under her feet. No wonder Erfang was happy, "Master, you want to slap Erfang in the face!"

"That's natural. Our Rongguo Mansion's first house and second house are in the same situation. You can't stand on the wrong side. You have to think clearly whether your husband is reliable or your aunt is reliable."

"If you can let me take five points of this heart, I will naturally be devoted to you. If you bring a concubine today and fall in love with a girl tomorrow, then I'll rely on my aunt."

"Don't worry, you have more than five points here. I can use my wealth to assure you that I will never let you down in this life."

"Hmph, try to fool me with some sweet words, how much money do you have, and you don't care about things or money. You have a few hundred taels in your hands." Wang Xifeng said so, but his heart was still at ease, and he leaned against Jia Lian's arms. Laughing heartily.

"Who said the master's worth is only a few hundred taels? Look at what this is. Could it be that the bag of ginseng just now is the price of cabbage?" Jia Lian took out the land deeds of the two courtyards.

"Look, these two courtyards have three entrances, and there is an alley across Muyang Street where the Sixth Department is located. They are rented to those who are officials, and they can get a lot of money every year. Not long after our dynasty was founded, there are so many people in the capital. It’s a big yard that no one buys, but after a few years, the population of central Beijing will increase, and our two yards will be worth a lot.”

Wang Xifeng's eyebrows brightened when he heard that, "Then why don't you buy more yards to store up, no matter where it is, you will never lose money, right? If you don't get enough money, I still have some money here, just a little, and I will take it back later. It must be doubled for me."

"You money fanatic sees that money is open, and my father is about to keep his filial piety. How dare you make a big move. If you buy too much, maybe the main house will find out. The family has not been separated yet, and the money in the hands of the father Should things be confiscated or not? If not, how will they discredit the Lord?"

"Then do it after the family is divided. At worst, I will work harder for grandma, and it will all cost me dowry money. No matter which family's rules, can you still swallow your wife's dowry?"

Jia Lian rubbed his smooth chin, thought for a while and said, "Well, let's think about how to do it first. You have a lot of dowry money on hand, so you don't need to make small and big troubles. In the future, the money will burn your hands, and your waist will burn." It should be hard."

"That's right, I feel more at ease when I have more money. A few days ago, my aunt asked me to be the housekeeper, saying that she was exhausted and afraid that something would go wrong. Master, do you think I will pick it up or not? They let go in such a hurry. I'm afraid that there will be troubles later and I will make up for it."

Jia Lian looked at her in surprise, "You don't want a housekeeper?"

Wang Xifeng stared, "What do you mean by that? I'm so stupid that I want to make up for it. The big house in this house has no face, and I want to be a housekeeper. I'm afraid I won't be able to get it. It's a waste of money. It's really worthless, it's better to go to earn money with the master, not to mention that the money earned is mine, and it is easy to gain a foothold with the money. If someone else rides on my head, I will definitely let her know how good I am."

Seeing that she was speaking clearly and logically, Jia Lian didn't recover for a while.

It's different, it's really different, but he likes it, if Wang Xifeng can stand by his side and think of him wholeheartedly, there's no need to worry about revenge.

But why did she hold on to the butler in her previous life?

"Well, my lord has an idea for you. If you want you to be a housekeeper over there, you can take care of it, but don't fill it in, you have to fish it back. The old lady's housekeeper doesn't know how much she has fished for many years. Auntie is so eager to let go, I'm afraid it's also because of this."

Jia Lian looked outside to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, and then continued, "The family now earns about 3 taels a year, which is more than 2 less than when my mother was housekeeper. There are five to six hundred people, and the monthly salary is nearly ten thousand taels. They have to pay the labor costs of the shopkeeper’s village, especially the relatives in the back street and the poor in the clan. While living extravagantly, you still want to scrape off a layer, do you think this housekeeper is worth it?"
