Weak Concubine [Qing Wear + Red House]

"Cough, cough, is fourth master looking at Dumb Goose too?"

"what?"

Jin Yao shook her head playfully:

"It's nothing, it's a kind of goose."

It was originally a stalk when Daiyu played with Baoyu in the Red Mansion, and the fourth elder brother would definitely not know.

But she forgot, the fourth elder brother didn't know, but he was serious and really looked into the sky:

"There are no geese around at this time of year, I'm afraid someone's eagles flew by!"

"Hey! Keke, you are right, I was wrong, please come inside, don't blow the wind here."

Embarrassed, Jinyao invited Thirteen Gege and Fifteen Gege to the study room:

"There is a heated kang here, sit on the kang and play to avoid the cold on the ground."

"It's okay, you don't have to entertain the two of us, hurry up and talk to the fourth brother, I didn't expect you and the fourth brother to be so familiar." Wen Ke said generously.

Jinyao hurriedly asked Jinling and the others to bring over her usual boredom-releasing little toys and some storybooks, and asked them to wait on Gege on the ground, and brought over all kinds of snacks, snacks, and fruits prepared in the kitchen.

Just like this, Jinyao felt disrespectful. It was rare for someone to go out of the palace, but even when she came to her house, she still sat on the kang and played by herself. What is the difference between that and the palace.

In fact, if she asked Wen Ke, she would definitely answer her, "There is a difference".

For those who can only stay in the palace all day, even going out of the palace for a walk is relaxing.

The host and guest gave way a few times before Jinyao left the inner room to entertain the fourth master outside the study.

Fourth master never urged her, sat at her desk and flipped through a book, and only put it down when he saw her coming over.

"It's causing you trouble."

Jin Yao chuckled lightly:

"Don't say that, I'm also honored to be able to help the fourth brother. What aspect do you want to ask?"

"I heard from your brother that you know a lot about the style of the merchant family?"

"It's hard to say that I understand it very well, but there is something to help."

Otherwise, how could her small treasury fill up so quickly, and even if she has a good idea to do business, she needs specialized talents, and if the scale is small, she can earn a living. How can she compare with a professional businessman's family, who has a special shop? , dedicated operators, and customer groups.

Like her family, father naturally wouldn't get involved with this. He is usually very busy, so he doesn't want to care about it.

And the eldest brother has always been aloof, and looks down on businessmen who never get in touch with each other on weekdays, and have no business idea. When he got married, the dowry given to his biological mother after he got married was almost lost by him, and he couldn't make up for it. .

Her third brother doesn't even have any concept of money, as long as he has food and clothing, he doesn't care about other things, he is only immersed in the sea of ​​learning, even though they are twins, but Jinyao hasn't been with his second brother since he was a child. together more.

Only the mother is quite good at managing her dowry, and managed her dowry so much that she and her second brother have been interested in it since they were young, and followed behind to earn some pocket money. Except for her mother, the family Others don't know how much silver their brother and sister have.

The fourth elder brother and his two younger sisters stayed in the Nian Mansion until after three o'clock in the afternoon before leaving.

Before leaving, the two princesses still had something to say, and Wen Ke said embarrassedly:

"Jinyao, the things you play with are really interesting, where did you buy them?"

Jin Yao smiled:

"Where did you buy it? My third brother made it for me." Yes, the third brother who is the same age as her often makes some small toys for her to play with...

When Wenkegege and Dunkegege heard this, envy appeared in their eyes, but they didn't say anything.

Jinyao was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, she still didn't send them off directly.

One is that this thing is old because I have played with it myself. After all, it is the third brother's wish, and I made it by myself. People made it again and gave it away, which happened to be a coming-of-age gift.

As soon as they left, Jin Yao slumped on the chair and didn't want to move.

This fourth master really deserves to be a workaholic. He asked her and took "notes" at the same time. Apart from taking a half-hour break after lunch, he didn't even take a break.

Once again, I am glad that I am a woman. If a man works under his hands in the future, he will not be exhausted. Oh, her old waist. "Mommy, rub it for me!"

"After Laba is the new year; Laba porridge, drink it for a few days, and it will be mile la la 23..." Now the New Year's atmosphere is full, and the nursery rhymes from the children running outside the mansion seem to have spread into the mansion.

Jinyao has been busy these days, busy making gift lists, busy shopping everywhere.In addition to the ones for home use during the Chinese New Year, there are also a lot of gifts for relatives and friends, so they should be prepared in advance.

In order to reduce Nian Gengyao's burden, she took the initiative to take all the responsibilities and tried not to let these trivial matters at home disturb him.

After the new year, it will be Chun Wei, and her brother is still on duty every day, and sometimes colleagues get together to bond with each other when he is off duty, and only at night can he read books for an hour or two, she is so worried.

Nian Gengyao shook his head dumbfounded, and finally accepted his sister's kindness, so he didn't need to worry about the New Year's affairs, and he could study his homework when he had time.

In fact, he felt that reading is a long-term accumulation, and it is not something that can be achieved by working hard for a while, but this girl is more nervous than him, so he can only follow her.

Fortunately, they don't have many relatives in the capital, so they need to worry about three or five families, and relatives farther away don't need to be so troublesome.

What's more, the second brother's boss and colleagues salute each other, which also needs to be taken seriously, otherwise, if he is negligent somewhere, he will be remembered by others without realizing it, and offending people unintentionally is the worst thing.

She didn't bother her brother about this matter, and it was the same with Nian Gengyao's Shutong Fengshouwen.

There is also Jinyao's own. She has been in Beijing for a few months and has made many little sisters with handkerchiefs. Naturally, during the New Year's Day, she has to give gifts normally.

In short, it is more laborious than physical labor.

Nanny Sun has been following Jinyao nervously, not daring to miss her eyes.

Every time I come to Nian Jinyao, I will make some old problems. Although I am getting older and getting better, I still dare not ignore it.Especially after being away from her parents this year, and having to worry about major Chinese New Year events, I am afraid that she will collapse from exhaustion.

It's a pity that Jinyao herself doesn't think that although being so busy is a bit hard, she is in a good mood, except that she misses her parents more.

Especially at the end of the year, the dividends sent to her by her subordinates are enough to make her happy for a while.

And being so busy, she naturally couldn't think of other people's affairs. Seeing that Du 28 was going to be thirty soon, she suddenly remembered:

"Jin Ling, you gave the New Year's gift to Uncle's house, right?"

"Yes girl, what's the matter?"

"I'm so busy and confused. I haven't been to their house for more than 20 days. How are they doing now?"

"Mother Fang and I looked pretty good when we went to give the New Year gift.

My uncle and wife are in good spirits. Although their new house is an old one, it is well-kept. There are not many servants. It is said that there are only about fifty people, and most of them are newly bought by my uncle and wife after moving. I didn't bring many people with me when I came out, so it didn't have much impact. "

"Where did Brother Cong go to school?"

"I heard from my uncle and wife that my uncle hired a gentleman to study at home."

Jinyao nodded, she heard that since the score came out, my uncle has been very strict with Jia Cong, the only child who is with me. Last time Jia Cong came to play, he even complained to her brother, saying that he was going to lose a layer of skin .

"Did you hear that when you went there, New Year's gifts were sent in the mansion over there?"

Jin Ling frowned:

"I didn't hear from my uncle and wife that Second Master Lian and Second Grandma Lian gave New Year's gifts. I think it's later than us."

"I don't know if the second cousin will spend the New Year with them."

When it comes to welcoming the spring, Jinyao is not in any mood.

In any case, it's her own choice, as long as she doesn't regret it in the future, how can others control so much.

After all, she stayed in Jia's mansion, and heard that Jia's mother was proposing marriage for her.

But Jia Lian and his wife still lived in Rongguo Mansion. Although Jia She was disappointed with him, in the end he was still a kind father who passed on the title to him, but when it was passed on to him, he was already a third-class general. There is no title left.

But even so, the life of Jia Lian and his wife has not changed much. The place they live in is not too big.

Even though their hearts were towards the second room, they still felt a little uncomfortable, thinking of the empress, they endured it.

And the old lady hated Jia Amnesty.

Before he died, he was not allowed to separate the family, and he was not allowed to pass the title to Jia Lian, because he was afraid that if it passed to Jia Lian, the second room would be embarrassed. After all, it is normal to live with brothers and sisters-in-law, but it is not normal to live with nephews, especially nephews. There is still his own father, but he does not live with him.

But Jia Amnesty actually made a big fuss, many people knew that he had passed the title to his son, but when he returned to the mansion, he wanted to use his mother's name to eat and drink, how could she bear it.

At the beginning, I said that letting him leave the house was just to scare him, but I didn't expect that he would really move out. Anyway, Jia Mu knew that he didn't have much money. If he doesn't believe that he can endure that hardship when he gets old, he will have to bow his head to her sooner or later.

I didn't want Jia She to be more troublesome than her, so he finally separated people.

She also made up her mind, and directly asked Jia Zhen to separate him from the clan, but she didn't tell the whole clan, just in case one day he caused trouble outside and hurt his mother, this would be a tear-off evidence.

And Jia Lian and his wife can't take care of their father at this time, they are so busy that they hardly even have time to sleep, what do you mean?

It turns out that there is a decree from the Holy Spirit that anyone who has built a garden can ask the decree to pick up the mother-in-law after the inspection by the servants.

As soon as the news got out of Jia's house, the Ningrong and Rongfu were all busy with this matter, except Jia Baoyu, who was idle, and Lin Daiyu, who was weak, everyone else took the job.

Even Xichun, who was the youngest, was given the task of cleaning up the calligraphy and paintings in the warehouse into a book, and then looked around in the new garden to see what kind of calligraphy and paintings should be hung.

Although she is young, she is good at painting, and her natural appreciation level is also good. It is appropriate to entrust this task to her. Xichun is also happy to have something to do, very happy.

Not to mention other people's homes, just saying that there is still a lot of work to be done at her own home, Pian Jinyao was shocked by the news brought back by Feiling who came back from outside.

"I didn't hear what you said just now?"

"Girl, you heard me right, I did see Miss Xue blocking the second master at the West Corner Gate..."
