[Red Chamber] Feijun does not "marry"

☆、Preparation for the construction of the park

Jia Yu looked at the silent Jia Baoyu, and felt that this bastard seemed to be growing up. It seemed that feelings were indeed something that tempered people.Because Qin Keqing didn't die, Qin Zhong didn't have an affair with Zhizhi'er because Qin Keqing didn't die, and he didn't have an affair with Zhizhi'er, and he didn't end up being discovered by Qin Ye later, angering his father to death, and dying of illness himself.

Speaking of which, this Qin Zhong is also a pitiful person, Qin Zhong Qin Zhong, is also a kind of love.Now that he is by Baoyu's side, it's a good home for him.

Lin Daiyu and Lin Cong returned to the Lin residence, and Jia's family suddenly lost a few juniors, which felt a little deserted.Jia's mother always loved the excitement, and raised the Jia family's children under her knees since she was a child, enjoying the family happiness surrounded by her children and grandchildren. Now that her most beloved Yu'er and Cong'er, who was finally found, have left the house, she can't help but feel a little lost , but watching the rest of the children is also a consolation.

It's just that before Jia's mother disappeared for a few days, a most important event was put on the agenda.Ever since Yuan Chun, the eldest sister of the Jia family, was made a virtuous concubine, news of her kindness and family visits spread one after another.At the beginning, it was not accurate, but later it was accurate by eight points. At this time, the Jia family had to start preparing for Yuanchun's relatives garden.

The first thing is the money for the construction of the family-saving garden. Although the royal family has allocated a part of it, it is still not enough overall.As the housekeeper's wife of Rongguo Mansion and Yuanchun's mother, Mrs. Wang is naturally the most concerned about this matter.

But the Jia family looks like a bunch of flowers on the surface, but what it looks like inside, others don't know, so how can she not know.For the money to build the garden, Mrs. Wang was so worried that she couldn't sleep for a few days, and finally she called Jia Yu to discuss it after much deliberation.

"Mother, what do you want from me?" As soon as Jia Yu came to Mrs. Wang's yard, Mrs. Wang dragged her to the kang and sat down.

Mrs. Wang asked her servant girl to serve tea and cakes for Jia Yu, and then waved them all down, leaving only their mother.

"Yu'er, it is our Jia family's honor to have your elder sister conferred a virtuous concubine. This matter of visiting relatives is already considered accurate. Although the royal family also allocated a part of the money for the construction of a relative's garden, it is a drop in the bucket after all. With Yu'er's intelligence It can also be seen that our Jia family is struggling to make ends meet, where should we get the money to build this garden." Mrs. Wang said with a heavy sigh.

Jia Yu is naturally clear about this matter, the matter of the money is really not a big deal to him, but how to get the money out should not attract attention.

"Mother, why bother, the eldest sister is now in the palace, it is the glory of our entire Jia family, and the cost of the family-saving garden will naturally be borne by the entire Jia family. It's just that the eldest sister is from our second room after all, so we naturally want more A few percent." Jia Yu patted Mrs. Wang's hand in relief.

"My mother also thought of this, but how can Dongfu and Dafang be willing to pay this money?" Mrs. Wang naturally understands that it is the most difficult thing to deal with when it comes to this word.

"Mother, you don't have to be so embarrassing, and you don't need them to pay too much. Even if they each contribute [-] to [-] percent, we will make up the rest. The eldest sister earns honor and favor in the palace, and they don't need to spend too much on each house. If you can borrow your strength, you will naturally not miscalculate this account." Jia Yu smiled casually.

"It's just that even if they pay [-]% for the first room, we have to make up [-]% for the second room. Where will this money come from?" Mrs. Wang is still worried. Although she still has dowry money and a shop, this is all In the future, it will be left to Baoyu and Yu'er, and she will never use her own ladder to make up for the hole in Jia's family when everyone is borrowing their strength.

"Mother, don't worry, Yu'er will take the money. It can be regarded as Yu'er's contribution to the eldest sister, but I hope that mother will cover up for Yu'er when the time comes." Jia Yu said. He took the teacup and handed it to Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang took the teacup in a daze, she didn't know how many surprises her Yuer would give her.

"Yu'er, how do you have this money?" Mrs. Wang seemed to have thought of something again, put down her teacup, and asked anxiously while grabbing Jia Yu's hand. She had very high expectations for Jia Yu, but she didn't want him The yellow and white vulgar things have gone astray.

"Mother, don't worry, it's just that a few shops have made some money." Jia Yu comforted Mrs. Wang, then took out two land deeds from her pocket and gave them to Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang stared wide-eyed with the two flimsy pieces of paper in her hand. The two pieces of paper were the title deeds of Jianbaozhai, a famous jewelry store in the capital, and Zhiweilou, a restaurant.Looking at these two pieces of paper, Mrs. Wang understood why Jia Yu didn't take money seriously.

Looking at the title deed of Jianbaozhai, Mrs. Wang suddenly understood the origin of the box of pearl hairpins that Sister Lin used to slap Aunt Xue in the face last time.So, he gave Jia Yu a reproachful look, and said: "You really love that girl from the Lin family, and you use the best jewelry in your shop to earn her face."

"Mother, it's okay if I'm wrong. It's just that I sincerely treat Sister Lin as my own sister, and the girls in our family don't treat me badly, everyone gets it." Jia Yu thought that Aunt Xue took it. The royal palace flower wanted to give Sister Lin a bad start, so she took out a box of pearl hairpins and asked Sister Lin to slap Aunt Xue in the face.Although they were happy and vented their anger when they did it at the beginning, they also angered their own mother enough, and now they just happened to make amends to Mrs. Wang.

"Hmph, I can really blame you, but it's just the same thing. You will treat your other younger sisters better in the future. I always feel that you hold the girls of the Lin family to the top of your heart, but treat our own girls mediocre." Madam smiled and stretched out her index finger to poke the cinnabar between Jia Yu's eyebrows.

The grain of cinnabar between Jia Yu's eyebrows has been there since he was born. It stands to reason that a man with such a grain of cinnabar would look a bit more enchanting. It is not a good omen for a man and a woman to look at each other.It's just that as Jia Yu grew older and the temperament in his bones came out, the cinnabar added a brilliance to him, and it didn't appear the slightest femininity.

"Then Yu'er will thank my mother for her kindness. Let's treat these two shops as Yu'er's filial piety to my mother." Jia Yu then pushed the two land deeds to Mrs. Wang. push.

"Mother knows what Yu'er wants, but it's better to keep this shop in Yu'er's hands. I, a woman, can't manage such a good shop. It's a waste of money in my hands." Mrs. Wang shook her head with a smile. Shaking his head, he put the two land deeds back into Jia Yu's hands.

Jia Yu didn't understand at first that Mrs. Wang has always attached great importance to money. He thought that Mrs. Wang must be happy to send these two shops that are making money every day.

"Yu'er, do you think mother likes these vulgar things?" Mrs. Wang seemed to see Jia Yu's doubts, and smiled faintly, unexpectedly showing a glamorous charm.

It should be said that Mrs. Wang was considered a beauty when she was young, otherwise there would be such outstanding children as Baoyu, Jia Yu, and Yuanchun.Although she is a little older now, but because of the well-maintained lifestyle, she has a kind of charm of a mature woman, but this beauty and charm have been hidden by her under the dull appearance all day long, and she does not easily reveal it.

"The reason why mother values ​​money is naturally because of Baoyu and your two brothers. Our second room is looking good in Jia's mansion now. If one day the old lady dies, the good days of the second room may come to an end. The eldest room wants us Packing up and moving out of Rongguo Mansion is also a reason, when the time comes, these ladders from my mother will be the last hope of our second room, so I will naturally pay more attention." Mrs. Wang smiled lightly and slowly expressed her painstaking efforts.

Jia Yu felt a little sour when he heard this, he also knew the embarrassing situation of the second bedroom, and relied on the old lady's favor to live in the main courtyard of Rongguo Mansion.When the old lady was still alive, everything was justified, and Jia She could bear it, but when the old lady was gone, would the second wife still have a good time?Da Fang must reckon all the face he had in the past.

If the eldest house is kinder, that is, the second house will move to the side courtyard, and the main courtyard will be handed over to the serious master of Rongguo Mansion.If the first room is not kind, so what if the second room is directly driven out of the Rongguo Mansion?Isn't that how the Ning Mansion dealt with it back then?

As for the issue of property, it is even more important. It depends on how the first house is allocated, and the second house is absolutely speechless.

Thinking of this, Jia Yu looked at Mrs. Wang with even more respect.Mrs. Wang has been using her own methods to preserve the second room, and my father can't bear to pay attention to these vulgar things.

"Mother, with Yu'er here in the future, you don't have to spend so much thought." Jia Yu suddenly felt a little distressed for this woman in the deep house.

Back then he was suffering from dementia, in order to protect him, Mrs. Wang had no choice but to be indifferent to him in order to keep him safe.In the whole second room, only Mrs. Wang was conscientiously planning for the future life. Originally, there was still a sister-in-law Zhu to help, but the loss of brother Zhu took away the last trace of sister-in-law Zhu's popularity, and she no longer cared about family affairs.

"Naturally, mother knows that Yu'er is filial." Mrs. Wang hugged Jia Yu in her arms happily.

"By the way, since Yu'er has this ability, why don't I take care of these dowry shops for my mother. Although these shops still have income in these years, they are not as good as before. I am a woman. After all, they are not good at running business." Madam Wang let go of Jia Yu after speaking, took out a small key from her body, and opened a delicate small copper lock on the Duobao Pavilion next to her bed.

Mrs. Wang carefully opened the small cabinet door, and took out an extremely exquisitely carved box from it.She carefully placed the box in front of her. After opening it, there were a few pieces of jewelry that were very expensive at first glance, and there were miscellaneous things on the bottom. At the bottom were a few land deeds.

Mrs. Wang picked out the deeds of the ten or so shops and handed them to Jia Yu. There were still a dozen or so Zhuangzi's deeds in her hand. She planned to give them to Jia Yu together, but she hesitated and put them back. At the bottom of the box, he sighed slightly.

Jia Yu was not unhappy, he naturally understood that it was reserved for Jia Baoyu, and as for the last sigh, he probably also thought that these dozen or so Zhuangzi were the last way out for Jia Baoyu, so he couldn't help but feel sad.

"Mother, don't be sad, as long as Yu'er is here, even if my brother is still ignorant of the world, Yu'er will let my brother be a rich and idle person for the rest of his life, and will not let him suffer." Jia Yu said and shook Mrs. Wang's hand.

"Hey..." Mrs. Wang sighed faintly, and felt very relieved to see Jia Yu's concerned eyes.At least now that her youngest son has really grown up, he can single-handedly shoulder the burden of their family.

"Mother's shops are temporarily placed in Yu'er's hands, and bonuses will naturally be given to Nianqin during the New Year's Day, so I can save myself from worrying about it." Jia Yu got these more than a dozen from Mrs. Wang. Naturally, a shop would not let her suffer, and the bonuses offered were by no means comparable to what Mrs. Wang could receive in previous years.

"Just follow Yu'er's wishes." Mrs. Wang smiled, and naturally understood Jia Yu's intentions.

To say that these shops and Zhuangzi owned by Mrs. Wang are all in excellent locations. After all, Mrs. Wang was also a serious concubine of the Wang family back then, which is not something that Wang Xifeng can compare to.When Mrs. Wang got married, she was also worthy of red makeup. Now she has been running the Jia family for many years, and her own small coffers are also very sufficient, but the Jia family's mid-career is really not very good-looking.

After all, the Jia family has a big business, food and clothing, and human relations, which one is not a big sum.But now all the servants of Jia's family are very petite, bullying their superiors and concealing their inferiority, pretending to be powerful, and relying on others' power, it seems that they are all masters.

Thinking of this, Jia Yu's eyes couldn't help but darken. If these malignant tumors in Jia's mansion were not removed, she might be dragged down in the future.So Jia Yu said to Mrs. Wang: "My son met Lian's second sister-in-law before, so I told her a few words that our family's slaves are really not very useful. Instead, we should pick some and let them out."

"How do you say that?" Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Yu strangely.Wang Xifeng did come to her and told her that she planned to release a group of undisciplined slaves, but she felt that the garden was about to be built, and it was time to employ people. Inevitably stretched.

"All the slaves in our mansion have grown up with big hearts. The slaves bully the master, and it will ruin the reputation of our Jia mansion. Now the mansion is going to build this family garden. Wouldn't it be unbeautiful to have some nasty things happen." Jia Yu casually took out a booklet from her sleeve and handed it to Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang took it suspiciously, and when she opened it to read the content carefully, she couldn't help being so angry that she almost passed out.

The pamphlet recorded all the things that the evil servants of Jia's mansion did. It was shocking. Mrs. Wang never thought that the servants of Jia's mansion would be so frivolous.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was very angry, Jia Yu quickly sat over and stroked her back to comfort her, then brought tea and fed it to Mrs. Wang herself.

"Mother, why do you have to be so angry because of these worthless slaves? The left and right are just sent out of the house, and the family will give some money to the children, and then sell the bought ones." Jia Yu didn't care about those slaves who did evil. Soft-hearted, in his opinion, anyone who threatens the Jia family is on the opposite side of him.

"Very true." Mrs. Wang also realized the seriousness of the evil servants, and made up her mind to sort out the servants of Jia's mansion before building the family-friendly garden.

After solving the important matter of building the garden, Mrs. Wang hurriedly ordered her servants to set up a meal. After leaving Jia Yu, she ordered a girl to call Baoyu, but the two brothers ate with Mrs. Wang.

Then Mrs. Wang returned to Jiamu about sending some of her servants out and building a family-friendly garden. Although Jiamu didn't take care of the family affairs for many years, she was very clear about the shortcomings of Jia's mansion.It's just that firstly, she felt that she was old and didn't like to worry about these trivial matters; secondly, she didn't want to meddle in the family affairs that her daughter-in-law had already taken over.

So when Mrs. Wang brought up this matter, Mother Jia looked at this daughter-in-law who was always dull in front of her in surprise, finally nodded and said appreciatively, "Very well."

Mrs. Wang didn't expect to get Jia's mother's support so smoothly, she was stunned for a moment, she stood up quickly and saluted, "Daughter-in-law should follow mother's orders."

Jia's mother nodded, and then said: "As for the construction of the family-friendly garden, it is a major matter for our Jia family. Naturally, we must call all the heads of the Jia family's houses to discuss it together."

Therefore, with the consent of Jia Mu, Jia Zhen, Jia Rong, Youshi, and Qin from Ningfu, Jia She and Mrs. Xing from Rongfu, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang from the second room even borrowed to live in Rongguo Mansion. Aunt Xue also gathered in Jia Mu's upper room.

In the end, as Jia Yu said, he took out a charter, Dongfu gave 6 taels, Rongfu gave 12 taels, and Mrs. Wang herself took out 12 taels from Tiji.Originally Madam Xing was not very happy about giving away so much money from the Rong Mansion, but seeing Madam Wang's behavior, she also knew that if she had any objections at this time, it would be to slap her in the face.

Jia's mother was very satisfied with Mrs. Wang's approach. It was the greatest wish that Mrs. Wang, a mother, could give out 12 taels of silver to build a garden for the elder sister.So, Mother Jia said: "My eldest sister is my most beloved granddaughter, how can I let you take out so many money as a mother, how about I also take out 5 taels this time, and you will do the rest .”

"Thank you, old lady." The elder did not dare to say goodbye, Madam Wang naturally did not dare to stand up and say polite words, but she just thanked her honestly, not to mention that this was also for the elder sister's face.

"Why don't I contribute to our eldest sister? It's a little bit of my aunt's kindness." Aunt Xue also stood up, took out 2 taels of silver and handed it to Mrs. Wang.

"How can this make my aunt spend money?" Mrs. Wang pushed the bank note handed over by Aunt Xue.

"Sister, how can you say such outrageous things, you and I are sisters, and you should do something for the elder sister." Aunt Xue stuffed the silver ticket into Mrs. Wang's hand, and went back to her seat to sit down.

"Then thank you, auntie." Mrs. Wang nodded to Aunt Xue, she naturally understood that her sister was paving the way for Baochai to enter the house in the future.

Mother Jia was also very satisfied with Aunt Xue's actions. Although she still felt that Baochai's status as a merchant's daughter was a bit low, it was still a good choice.The Jia family is now empty inside, and it would be nice to have such a wealthy foreign family to help, not to mention that Xue Jiabaochai's child is very clever, gentle and pleasant, a rare character.

Aunt Xue also saw the faint admiration in the eyes of Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang. In the eyes of others, she was wronged for the money, but she was very happy.It made Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang happy. In the future, when Baochai from her family marries into Jia's family, she will definitely receive more preferential treatment.

It's just that Mrs. Jia and Aunt Xue took the ladders and came out to pay for the garden building, which made Mrs. Xing a little jealous. She was the daughter of a small family, and she had never seen so much money.At the thought of the several 10 taels of silver just to build a garden, my distressed eyes turned red for a moment.But with Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang in front, she dared not say a word, so she had to endure it.

Afterwards, everyone marked off the place where the family-speaking garden was built, and the matter was considered over.Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng took advantage of the construction of the garden to sort out the servants in the entire Rongguo Mansion, and punished all the evil servants on Jia Yu's booklet.

All of a sudden, there was a new look in Jia's house, and Wang Xifeng even bought a lot of new servants from Ren Yazi.The new servants hadn't figured out the master's temper, so they were all very obedient and cautious in their words and deeds. It turned out that the rest of the old people were also trembling after Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng's vigorous rectification this time, and they didn't dare to play tricks again.

Mother Jia looked at the newly replaced servants, although they haven't been used very smoothly yet, they are much more disciplined than the original batch, and if they are well trained, they will definitely be used in the future.It's just that Mother Jia didn't expect Mrs. Wang's methods to be so severe this time. Even Zhou Rui's family members around her were sent out, and people who were very useful in the past were also kicked out from every house.

But everyone saw that Mrs. Wang was never soft on her dowry, and they didn't dare to say anything more, and Mrs. Wang was able to tell all the things, which made everyone look at him with admiration for a while, and even more so. The evilness of the servants of Jia's family has been seen thoroughly.

Although there were a few people around Jiamu, she was clear about what she had done before, and she was just lazy to take care of it. Now that they were kicked out together, it would be more worry-free, so that they would not have to keep holding them outside. Jia's mansion is a waste.

Jia Yu was very clear about what happened in the mansion, after all, he asked Feng Sha to prepare that booklet, and it was also to find a reason for Mrs. Wang's actions.Putting out the piles of pieces, I am not afraid that those dog slaves will not admit it, and it is justifiable to drive them out of the house.

Jia Yu, who was standing at the window, squinted a pair of amorous peach blossom eyes, looking at the direction of the palace with deep eyes, with flashes of light in his eyes from time to time.But before he could think any more, his little servant Yunzhu stumbled in and said while panting, "Third Master, the master told you to go ahead, saying that the imperial decree came from the palace and called you Go to receive the order."

When Jia Yu heard that the imperial decree had come from the palace, a flash of brilliance flashed in her rippling peach blossom eyes, which made Yunzhu go crazy.Jia Yu chuckled lightly, tapped him on the head, and walked forward, but the usual sluggish pace was a bit faster...
