There is no phoenix

Jia She said: "Forget it, we can't take care of ourselves now, so don't worry about others. There is no hope for the East Mansion, and we might burn ourselves."

Mrs. Xing said: "Master said so, is there any other way?"

Jia She said: "The state of the mansion has become like this, I think it has something to do with the old lady's partiality. The Ningguo mansion was buried for Qin Keqing that day, and we were asked to spend money desperately, thinking that we could please the emperor. If I hadn't recommended Zhang Youshi to the emperor Treating illnesses, how can we have the glory of our mother? The mother spent all the savings of our family for decades, and also used the dowry money of my niece, so that the family has been holding back their trousers all these years. Pretending to be beautiful. I want to marry a mandarin duck, but the old lady refuses, and even scolds me. Baoyu hangs out with so many girls, but the old lady is like a baby, and never says a word."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xing also said angrily: "Isn't it true what the master said. We are big houses, and we are under the hereditary inheritance, but outside, it is said that we have been honored by the empress in the palace. Let me tell you, if it weren't for the empress's relatives to cover Yuanzi, it is possible for us to spread money all over the house right now."

Jia She said: "Looking at the old lady's current state, she has a lot of money, tens of thousands, all of which can be taken out by the mandarin ducks in the house at any time."

Mrs. Xing said: "The old lady wants to get one hundred and eighty thousand in cash now, I'm afraid it will not be difficult at all. When Feng Lazi was still in the mansion, I knew that she and Lian'er were carrying us and Yuanyang behind their backs. Let's steal the old lady's things and turn them into money."

Jia She was surprised and asked: "Why didn't I hear you mention it before? So that dead girl Yuanyang has an affair with Lian'er? I thought she really only looked at the sky as she said."

Mrs. Xing said: "The master just talks about me, you don't know, because of your affairs, the old lady still blames me."

Jia Amnesty thought for a while and said, "It's better to get Yuanyang. With her, I have the dignity of an old lady. With money, I just don't want to do this hereditary. We can also eat, drink and have fun freely."

Mrs. Xing said: "Yuanyang has such a strong temper, I'm afraid it will not be easy for her to be united with us."

Jia She said: "She just likes that the old lady will obey her, so she has the confidence to fight against me. If the old lady doesn't praise her, I'm afraid she will ask me to be my aunt."

Mrs. Xing thought for a while and said, "Yuanyang is now 19 years old, so she should know some things about people. I think of a girl, as long as the raw rice is cooked, she must accept her fate."

Jia Amnesty nodded and said: "You are right, as long as her body is broken, I see who else she wants to marry! It's just that this method is not easy to do, she is with the old lady every day."

Mrs. Xing said: "My lord, don't be in a hurry to do this. Now that the old lady is old, Baoyu and Huan'er Lan'er can't see hope yet. Hereditary is you, the old man, as long as you say more good things in front of the old lady , to please the old lady, and then directly beg the old lady to give you the mandarin duck, I am afraid it is possible."

Jia She said: "But the old lady said before that I can't get a girl like Yuanyang, she is willing to pay for me to buy someone, so it's changed to Yanhong?"

Mrs. Xing said: "Master is a student, don't you know 'this time, that time'? At the beginning, the old lady really didn't want to part with the mandarin ducks, but this year I heard the old lady say several times that after the new year, the mandarin ducks will be free. If she were to marry a good family, wouldn't she be willing to marry a mandarin duck?"

After hearing this, Jia Amnesty asked happily: "The old lady really said that after the end of the year, Yuanyang will be free? Let her marry?"

Mrs. Xing said: "Of course, if you don't believe me, you can ask the people in the house. No matter whether the master or servants, everyone knows. I'm afraid that you, a dignified hereditary elder, don't know."

Jia She said: "In this case, I will go to see the old lady and discuss this matter. I don't believe it. Since the old lady thinks that mandarin ducks are the best, why doesn't she want to stay in our house for a long time and marry her?" Give me this hereditary eldest son? If Yuanyang marries me, why should the old lady worry about it?"

Mrs. Xing said: "Master can think this way, why don't you try the old lady's tone now. In this way, you go there first, and when you get to the old lady, you can ask Yuanyang to say something to me, and I will naturally find a way to keep it." Living in a mandarin duck, you can test the old lady slowly and try to make her fall in love. As long as the old lady nods, everything will be easy to handle."

Jia Amnesty listened, nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go and tidy up right now, you prepare two good ginsengs for me, and I'll take them to see the old lady."

Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Xing discussed for a while, and they saw that it was already the application time, so Jia Amnesty took the things Mrs. Xing had prepared, brought a servant, and came to Jia Mu.

These days, Mother Jia was worried about the Ningguo Mansion, so she woke up after a long nap in the afternoon, so she let the mandarin ducks grind the ink and wrote a letter to Daiyu herself.After only writing a few lines, Amber came to report: "Old lady, the great master is here."

Jia Mu hurriedly said, "Let him in and see if he has any good news."

Jia Amnesty walked in and saw that Jia's mother was writing a letter, she couldn't help but wondered, "Who is mother writing to?"

Mother Jia sighed: "Such a big thing happened in Dongfu. Seeing that you and Baoyu didn't send any good news, I had no choice but to write to Miss Lin. Miss Lin has always been filial to me. I begged her like this. I'm afraid there is still some hope."

Jia She said: "The children and grandchildren are not filial, which makes the old lady worry, and the son is ashamed! But the son is here today to talk about the affairs of our mansion, as well as the East mansion. Mother, these two ginsengs were bought by my son outside today. , to make up for the mother. As long as the mother is in good health, if there is anything outside, the sons will naturally go to it."

When Jia She said this, he suddenly patted his head and said, "Look at my head, I only remember to take ginseng. I brought a kind of incense outside today, and lit it in the house. It is the most soothing to sleep. Son listen Lian'er's mother said, "Mom hasn't been sleeping well these days. She bought it yesterday, but she forgot to take ginseng today. Miss Yuanyang, go to the old lady's place and just say what I say. In the drawer in the middle of my room, give the red box to me. Give it to the old lady, and I will tell you to use it later."

After hearing this, Yuanyang only looked at Jia Mu, and when Jia She came to tell her about the inquiry outside, she spoke more enthusiastically than usual, and hurriedly said to Yuanyang: "In this case, Yuanyang, go to the eldest lady to get something. I'll write again later."

After hearing this, Yuanyang had no choice but to agree and walked out.

Mother Jia put down her pen, took the ginseng handed over by Jia Amnesty, opened it, looked at it, and sighed: "It's hard for you to be so thoughtful. Tell me quickly, what did you find out outside? Brother Zhen and his son will not be in danger." Bar?"

Jia Amnesty looked at Amber on one side, Mother Jia understood, and quickly said to Amber: "You all go outside, I am talking to the master here, you all don't come in."

After hearing this, Amber hurriedly took the two girls out.

Seeing that Amber had gone out, Jia's mother hurriedly said, "Now they have gone out, please tell me the news from the snooping in detail."

Jia She then sighed: "Old lady, my son dare not lie to you, things are a little bad. I spent a lot of money today, and got news from the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice that Brother Zhen and his son not only got together to drink and gamble, but also Qin Keqing's affairs, and even Some people have reported on me and Baoyu."

When Jia Mu heard this, she was shocked and said, "What? Someone else reported on Qin Keqing? And you and Baoyu? What is it about you and Baoyu?"

Jia She said: "It's the matter of Jin Chuan'er and Yanhong. It is said that Baoyu and I forced their lives."

When Jia Mu heard this, she was in a daze.

Jia She hurriedly said: "Mother, don't be in a hurry. In my opinion, our family is still safe and sound. Maybe the emperor still thinks about my merit in recommending Zhang Youshi to cure his illness that day, and for the sake of his mother and niece, so We need to clean up our house. According to my son, there is only one person who can manage the house well and will not cause trouble again."

Jia Mu said: "Now who has the ability to keep our house safe?"

Jia She said: "Mother is a smart person, whoever she trains to be the most outstanding will naturally be able to keep our family."

Jia Mu said, "Don't beat around the bush, just say who it is?"

Jia She said: "A few years ago, I once said that the most outstanding person in our family is not the son of our family, but the girl Yuanyang. The son always wanted to praise her, but the mother refused. Now I still say that, Yuanyang is the lucky star in my family. If she manages our family, everything will be fine."

Jia Mu said: "But Yuanyang is a girl after all, how can she convince the public if she is the housekeeper?"

Jia She said: "What if she is the wife of a hereditary general like me? If she doesn't want to be an aunt, I'll let her be a concubine. Isn't her status enough to convince the public? Mother values ​​her and thinks she is more important than her son and grandson." Du Qiang, is mother really willing to let her marry someone else? Don't you want her to be your daughter-in-law and a member of our family? Think about it, mother, if Yuanyang really became the master of our family, wouldn't she be more loyal?"
