You don't need to deliberately inquire about the farce that the Jia family has produced. You can listen to it by strolling around the street outside. A good-hearted man" persuaded him, telling him to teach the juniors well and stop making jokes all day long.

Lin Ruhai still carried it when she was outside, her face didn't show at all, but when she got home, her face turned dark.

There are so many men in the world who are "beautiful" like a cow's hair, but it's really rare for Jia Lian to pull anything smelly and smelly into his arms. It's really hungry, like a hungry ghost in color!

What else is there to be cuckolded by brothers and nephews... It's too late for normal people to hide such a scandal, how to deal with it, how to vent their anger, what to do in private, what to do with love in private, get it on the table, and the two families fight in the street for this... This Do you still feel that your reputation is not bad enough?Still think it's not lively enough?Or do you think your head is not green enough?

Lin Ruhai really couldn't understand what was going on in that idiot's mind, and what was even more incomprehensible was how the Jia family, which seemed normal back then, became what it is now?

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will find that it is not too surprising that the Jia family will become like this.

Needless to say about the Ning Mansion, Jia Jing was a Jinshi of Yimao Branch at any rate back then, he had some talent and a bright future, but he was obsessed with cultivation and soaring, he tossed about alchemy all day long, and didn't ask about family affairs at all, just for fear of asking more One sentence is tainted with cause and effect, preventing him from ascending to immortality, so Jia Zhen will be let go?And with an old man like him taking the lead, how can Jia Rong, a son, be any better?Naturally follow suit.

Besides, in the Rong Mansion, Jia She was raised in front of her grandmother since she was a child, and she was doted on by her grandmother, just like Jia Baoyu today, whenever the old lady wanted to spur him to make progress, the old lady would hug her heart and howl Get up, stop him life and death, you are not allowed to persecute the child, once, twice or three times, it is like this, and when you look back suddenly, the child has grown up and has developed a temper.

When the old man was around, Jia Amnesty didn't dare to be too presumptuous. When his old man kicked his legs away, he would naturally go to heaven without restraint.As for Jia Zheng, he is a rare and serious descendant of the Jia family. He has loved reading since he was a child, but unfortunately his qualifications are limited. , It's really not the material of the imperial examination, just look at him who has been working in the Ministry of Fifth Grade Industry for so many years and never moved his butt.

Besides, Jia Lian, one is that his father had a good head, he lost his mother early when he was young, no one controlled him, he grew crooked when he grew up, and married a daughter-in-law when he grew up, and the daughter-in-law was an extremely powerful , a belly full of colorful intestines was crushed by his wife, and the pressure became more and more perverted, and he was willing to touch any kind of rotten stuff.

There is only one Jia Baoyu left... don't mention it.

After thinking about it in this way, Lin Ruhai is completely helpless. The century-old reputation of the Lin family has been spread by such an in-law... and thinking about how his wife always talks about how the family is, Lin Ruhai can't help but think, if his wife is still alive Seeing how her natal family is now, I'm afraid she will be too angry.

There are so many dandies all over the capital, it's really rare that Jia's house can become so stinky and stinky.

Lin Ruhai didn't use this kind of pickle to stain the ears of the two daughters, but the sisters still heard about it. Lin Mohan was fine, after all, she had read the original book a long time ago, so she thought that the younger sister was afraid that she wouldn't be able to stand this kind of pickle. Unexpectedly, when I turned my head to look, I found that she seemed to be quite calm, so I couldn't help being surprised.

Lin Daiyu seemed to see her doubts, and said: "A person like Baoyu who looks like a beautiful person...not to mention Cousin Lian and the others have no limit to their mischief, and they don't feel surprised at what they do. I just don't know what happened to Sister-in-law Lian." Being able to be carried out on the spot showed that the situation was quite serious.

"Wait until I send someone to have a look..."

Lin Ruhai heard the eldest daughter's words just after walking to the door, and asked casually, "What are you sending people to see?"

"Father." Lin Mohan poured a cup of tea and handed it over, explaining, "I just heard about the Jia family and wanted to send someone to ask about Sister-in-law Lian's condition. I don't know where it hurt."

"It's not that I'm injured, it's that I fell and moved my tires, and I almost couldn't save it. Fortunately, I found a nearby medical center in time."

"Sister-in-law Lian is pregnant?" Lin Mohan was stunned.

"You don't need to send someone to look at it. Just now, someone from Jia's family came and said that the old lady is sick." Lin Ruhai couldn't help laughing to herself, the old lady just happened to be sick when the court was demanding debts?I'm afraid she just wants to borrow money from their family, find an excuse to pass the steps so that they can go there, and maybe the old lady even wants to intercede with him, the Minister of the Household Department, so that the debt can be temporarily fooled.

Lin Daiyu didn't know the twists and turns, and she was a little anxious when she heard that the old lady was ill.

"Han'er will go to the warehouse to pick up some medicinal herbs and supplements in a while, and we will visit the old lady tomorrow morning." He advised Lin Daiyu, "Yu'er should not worry too much, the old lady should be fine, the servant who just came to pass the news He has a relaxed look on his face."

Only then did Lin Daiyu feel a little relieved.

In the early morning of the next day, the father and daughter got into the carriage and headed towards Rongfu, but Lin Yanlang had already entered school, and he had a lot of homework every day, and besides, he had a well-educated father, Tanhualang, who was very demanding. , I had a hard time in my childhood haha.

The old lady cried when she saw them, not to mention how sad the old lady was, but she clearly said that she was sick, but her face was very rosy, and she didn't look sick at all. She heard her crying and secretly accused Lin Ruhai and her sisters Two cruel people... What else does Lin Daiyu not understand?The worry and concern disappeared in an instant, leaving only boredom.

Lin Mohan patted his younger sister's hand lightly to comfort her, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with the old lady? Have you ever called the imperial doctor to see her?"

Jia Mu sighed and said, "It's not that I have any disease, it's just that I'm worrying too much."

Just waiting to ask her why she was worried, so as to start the next topic, it seems that this is the purpose of pretending to be sick and calling them here today, but I don't know what the hell they want to make trouble.

Lin Mohan glanced at his father, saw him smile slightly, and said, "Aren't you worried about your sister-in-law Lian? Go and see her."

Mother Jia also nodded when she heard the words, and said: "She is not in good health, and she is a little depressed. You can go and talk to her."

Is this trying to spend them out to talk about things?No wonder the sisters are not in the house today.

Sisters Lin Mohan and Lin Daiyu were a little worried that the old lady would make trouble again, but they thought that their father was not someone who could be manipulated by others, and their hearts were still at ease, so they obediently left hand in hand.

As soon as the two left, Jia Mu's face fell, "Why didn't you tell me about the court's debt collection? We suddenly asked us to pay 20 taels of silver. Isn't this difficult for others?"

Lin Ruhai frowned, "How can the government affairs of the court be leaked at will in advance? Besides, it's not going to be done right away, isn't it given ten days to prepare?"

"What's enough for ten days? That's 20 taels of silver!" Mrs. Wang was dying of anxiety, and she couldn't help complaining to him: "Why is it so good to suddenly demand debts? Isn't this forcing someone to death!"

"It's only natural to pay back the debt." Lin Ruhai turned cold and said, "I'm the one who did this job, but the creditor is the emperor. Are you complaining that the emperor is mean and ungrateful?"

Mrs. Wang was so frightened that her face turned pale, she said in a low voice: "My brother-in-law misunderstood, I just complained casually, how can I blame the emperor."

"Shut up if you don't know how to talk." Mother Jia glared at her, then looked at Lin Ruhai, "You are my son-in-law, and I won't hide it from you, but now the family is no longer what it used to be. It was a big expense again, and now there is really no money in the account..." As he spoke, he began to sob and cry.

Speaking of Concubine Xian again, is it possible that she still wants to use Concubine Xian to suppress others?This creditor is the emperor.

Lin Ruhai smiled sarcastically, and said helplessly, "The old lady told me that I can't make the decision either."

Jia's mother said: "You are a close minister of the emperor, so you can't intercede with the emperor... It's not that you won't pay it back, but it's just two years later, let the family save some money, or pay less first..." Tell her to come to her privately She said that she was naturally unwilling to repay the money, but she also knew that she couldn't say that, she could only delay it if she could, maybe the emperor would forget it when he was busy.

"The emperor is not that unkind person, but... the old lady has ever thought that not only the Jia family owes debts, but most of the whole court owes debts. If the emperor shows grace to the Jia family, So what if other people also go to intercede? It’s impossible to favor one another, but if all the families have given Grace, how can the debt be recovered? Why does the old lady think the emperor suddenly wants to collect debts? The treasury is tight.”

Lin Ruhai sighed: "If we ordinary people are a little nervous about money, at most we can just save money for a while, but once the treasury is tight...we need to use money to defend against the enemy, and every year there will be some natural disasters here or there Needing money to relieve disasters, raising soldiers to buy horses and making weapons is constantly burning money... Is this not a major issue that is related to the people's livelihood or shakes the foundation of the country? The emperor is determined to recover foreign debts to fill the treasury. It is useless to say anything. If the old lady believes in me, just listen to my advice, no matter what, find a way to get the money back as soon as possible, otherwise you will anger the emperor and let no one have any good fruit to eat."

"The emperor's determination is very firm. If anyone dares to act badly at this time, he will probably become the chicken that kills chickens to make an example to monkeys."

Mrs. Wang's face turned paler and paler, her brows and eyes were full of unconcealable anxiety, and the string of Buddhist beads in her hand was almost not torn off by her.

But Mother Jia continued to cry: "As long as I can get it out of my hand, how can I be unwilling? The mansion is really at the end of its rope!"

Lin Ruhai gave an idea very "intimately", "It doesn't matter if the family can't come up with such a large amount of cash, if you take out some things, you can use the market price to pay for the money."

Mother Jia's crying stopped abruptly, and she was obviously stunned.

She originally planned to cry poorly and "borrow" money from the Lin family, but now that they have pointed out a way out, how can she speak up?

Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes and said with a reluctant smile: "The old things in the family are all passed down from the ancestors, and they will be handed down to future generations for a long time. How can they be used to pay for silver envoys?"

"That's the reason." Mother Jia nodded, fearing that Lin Ruhai would continue to come up with some good ideas, she simply spoke directly, "I thought that if the Holy Majesty really refused to take it easy, it would be better for the son-in-law to borrow money to help the family first. Get through this difficult time..."

Lin Ruhai looked at her and said: "The old lady asks herself, if the family can't afford that much money now, can it be done in the future? What year and month will it be in the future? The Lin family can afford this money, but The money of the Lin family was not brought by the strong wind... After the filial piety of Empress Xiaoyi, Han'er should marry the fourth elder brother. How can this dowry be shabby? Yu'er will also be appointed by the emperor in the future, and her family status will not be low Go, the dowry naturally has rules, and Lang'er married a wife..."

In fact, both of them knew in their hearts that this so-called "borrow" could not be expected to be repaid at all. After all, it was his mother-in-law.Even if he was reasonable, it would be too ugly and embarrassing if he really brought it to court. It's better not to get used to her from the beginning.

Mother Jia's face turned cold, "Is the son-in-law really going to die?"

"How can we talk about dying? If the family really had no way out, I would definitely not stand by and watch, but I have pointed out a clear way for you just now, but you are not... unwilling to touch yourself The foundation of the family, but you want to dig out my Lin family's belongings? The old lady's calculation is too smart. I am your son-in-law, but you don't think about using our Lin family as your Jia family's pocketbook .”

These words were not polite at all, and the atmosphere condensed instantly.

There are two flowers on each table.

But Lin Mohan and Lin Daiyu went to visit Wang Xifeng, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw such a strong person lying on the bed resting, and their hearts suddenly trembled.

"Is it so serious? Is the child okay?"

Wang Xifeng frowned slightly, and said: "The doctor said that the situation is not very good, and told him to stay in bed, and he dare not tell him to go out."

That's not a good thing to say.

Lin Daiyu sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "Why did you fall down so well? What are you doing with so many women and girls around you?"

When Ping'er heard this, he cried out for injustice, "It's the third sister You who wanted to die, and suddenly she rushed up like she was going epileptic, and people didn't even have time to react."

"Third Sister You dares to do anything to you?" Lin Mohan was also surprised.

A hostility appeared on Wang Xifeng's face, "I can't spare her."

"You can take a rest." Lin Daiyu gave her a white look, "Now that you're like this, you still worry about cleaning up people? Let's take care of your body first, but you can't stand it anymore."

"Exactly. It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. Why bother to get angry at this moment? Take care of yourself. By the way, what happened in the mansion? I saw that the old lady seemed to have something to say to her father, and she still had something to say." They sent us out on purpose."

"What else can I do? This is trying to use your family's money as envoys." Wang Xifeng sneered and said: "Yesterday, someone from the household department came and said that they wanted to return the 20 taels of silver from the treasury."

"20 taels?" Lin Daiyu was taken aback, "Why did the mansion borrow so much money?"

Knowing what was going on, Lin Mohan was completely relieved. Her old father was not some living Bodhisattva, and she wanted to take advantage of him?Dreaming.

"I was not in this mansion when I borrowed this money back then, and I don't know how I borrowed so much money, but now I'm caught blind."

"Why don't you seem to be in a hurry at all?" Lin Mohan was very surprised by her obviously abnormal attitude, "It is estimated that there is not much money in the mansion, and now such a burning matter, why do you follow her?" Like an outsider."

"The public account in the mansion has been out of money for a long time, and now I have to get some things from the warehouse and sell them if I want to pay back the money. The warehouse..." Wang Xifeng narrowed his eyes slightly, and the cold light flickered, "There are valuables in the warehouse. Things have long been dumped by the old lady into her own private treasury, you are not outsiders, you know what is going on at home, the old lady loves Baoyu like eyeballs, so the private treasury can still be missed by us If it really gets to the point where I have to sell things to raise money, then the second room should be the one who should be distressed."

The two sisters were also speechless after hearing this, no wonder Wang Xifeng was not in a hurry at all, neither left nor right could fall into her hands, what was she anxious about?Probably on the contrary, I can't wait to sell them all as soon as possible. It's better to lose all the benefits than to ask the second room to take advantage of it.

"The old lady is really..." People don't know what to say about her.

A woman's private treasury is her own dowry and the wealth she has accumulated over the years, so it is naturally up to her to arrange it for herself. No one can say anything to whomever she likes, but she can fill her own with things from the treasury at home. Private treasury... Isn't this evacuating the Rong Mansion to subsidize the second house?There is no such thing as partiality.

However, Lin Mohan doesn't think that Wang Xifeng will just admit it like this. These two couples have always dared to spend the money in the frying pan. Can they bear this?I'm afraid I'm holding back some ideas.

Wang Xifeng looked at them again, and said with a bitter face: "I'm not worried about Uncle Lin, she definitely won't be taken advantage of by him, I'm just afraid that the old lady will come back to pester you after being beaten by Uncle Lin, you two The little girl's family must not be softened by her crying. Now that there is no cash in the house, it is not really poor enough to drink the Northwest Wind. She came to your family because she was not willing to part with the money. "

Lin Daiyu sighed helplessly, sat by the side without words, with a lazy and indifferent expression.

Lin Mohan squinted at Wang Xifeng, with a half-smile on his face, "Why do I think you are overly enthusiastic?"

Wang Xifeng secretly cursed "ghost spirit", but on the face he shouted grievances in a serious manner.

"Come on, you need to be less calculating this day, you won't be worried if you ask you to raise a baby." Lin Mohan was impatient to hear her sing a big show, and changed the subject, and asked instead: "What happened to you and Cousin Lian? Didn't you fight?"

"He dares!" Wang Xifeng snorted coldly, and said quite proudly: "Now he just wants to sacrifice me like an ancestor, he doesn't even dare to speak to me loudly, and dares to fight with me? He dare not even dare!"

"That's right, I usually don't see anyone every day, but now it's good, those cronies and dog friends can't go out no matter how much they shout, and they can't be driven away by grandma every day, that is, they go out early this morning to grandma. I went to buy snacks, and I have to continue to be annoying when I come back later."

Tsk, this son's charm is really great.

Lin Mohan curled her lips. In the original book, Wang Xifeng's son could not be saved, and she didn't know what her fate would be now.

"When I came back, Baoyu vomited blood. I don't know how he is now?" Lin Daiyu asked suddenly.

When Wang Xifeng heard this, he laughed, "Don't worry, he's doing well now, and it's so beautiful to have his sister Yun sitting and lying with him every day to relieve boredom."

Hearing this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help frowning, "Could it be that the old lady wants to pair Xiangyun and Baoyu again?"

"Not necessarily." Wang Xifeng didn't say much, only the expression on his face was slightly sarcastic.

Lin Daiyu's complexion is not very good-looking. Baoyu is already well-versed in human affairs, asking such an innocent girl to sit and lie with him every day, but it seems that she has no intention of getting married. This is not a scam. ?That's the grand-nephew of a direct relative, how can the old lady really do this?

Lin Mohan thought that the old lady might be trying to find a horse by riding a donkey. Jia Baoyu's reputation is not good, and it would be difficult to hire a girl from a wealthy family. Shi Xiangyun is also a girl from the Hou family. But at least it looks good on the surface. If there is really no better choice in the end, it is reluctant to make Shi Xiangyun and Jia Baoyu a pair. But if there is a better choice, Shi Xiangyun will have to be abandoned.

From the bottom of my heart, the old lady is not without a little affection for these girls, but it is obviously far worse than Jia Baoyu.

Before he had time to say a few more words, Lin Ruhai called someone to come and yell, but he didn't call to say goodbye to the old lady. In all likelihood, they broke up again.

When the father and daughter arrived at the door, they saw a young and beautiful woman yelling and cursing outside. When they saw them, the swearing stopped, and they looked at Lin Ruhai in a daze.

Seeing this, Lin Mohan subconsciously glanced at his old father. Although he is not too young, his figure is still tall and straight, and there are not many wrinkles on his face. In addition, he is full of knowledge, gentle and elegant, and has held high positions for many years. It has a calm demeanor... It is really charming.

Watching the carriage go away, Third Sister You turned her head and asked the servant of the Jia family who came to drive her away, "Is that Jia Lian's uncle Lin Ruhai and Master Lin?"
