The maid of the red house

Taking off the filial piety clothes and changing into red clothes, the banquet was held with great excitement, which can be called a joyous time for both guests and hosts.

Sister Feng dealt with it with a smile on her face, and finally felt relieved.

Those people are all well-informed. They were a little worried about Daiyu at first, but now that the Rongguo Mansion has given Daiyu a big deal, they have changed a little bit. Mrs. Zhang smiled and complimented Jia Mu and said: "It's strange that the old lady loves her granddaughter and raises the girl well." She is better than anyone else, just look at this scene." She was worried that the Rongguo Mansion would not treat Daiyu as her own girl and would not do it for her, and if she really didn't do it, it would be notorious in the capital.

When Rongguo Mansion brought Daiyu over, they had to both teach and support them, and the treatment that boudoir daughters should have should not be missed. No, the Rongguo Mansion will not be able to explain to the world.Of course, if they were really shameless, no one else could do anything.

This is also the reason why Lin Ruhai did not entrust his old friend to take care of him in the past, but instead sent a letter suddenly before he died.

So Mrs. Zhang thought that the best way to treat Daiyu was to not only seek foreign aid, but also make the Rongguo Mansion treat her well, even if they were not as dedicated as they were with their own daughter, but they had to be decent.

Jia's mother hurriedly said: "My granddaughter has no support, so I love her a little bit. It's just that I am old, I don't go out, I don't care much, and I don't remember much. I am afraid that this child will be wronged. Now she After leaving the filial piety, I will come to the door tomorrow to greet the wives and wives, and ask the wives to take care of me, I will thank you in advance when I am here."

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "The old lady is serious. I also love Miss Lin as a person."

Mrs. Xu sat aside and listened, and said with a smile: "Our old man also misses Aunt Lin in his heart. If the old man and our old lady were not in the Northeast, he would have taken Aunt Lin to live at home for two days. Now Tete tells us to be filial. Aunt Lin, the old matriarch just need to rest assured, although we are juniors, how old are we older than Aunt Lin, can we still make Aunt Lin feel wronged?"

Everyone laughed, Zhang said: "It's better for relatives to move around more."

When Jia's mother asked about Princess Yongchang, Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said: "Princess thinks it's cold in the capital, so she went to live in the hot spring village for two days, so she was never at home."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "The princess is so at ease."

Mrs. Zhang listened with a smile, Daiyu is a girl who is a filial piety, and has nothing to do with the princess mansion. The princess called her here, which is already giving Daiyu great face, and she called her only after hearing Mrs. Zhang talk about her pity for Daiyu here.

After the banquet and changing clothes, there is already a well-prepared retreat.

After having tea and talking about some gossip, Mrs. Zhang left first. Jia Mu ordered Mrs. Xing Wang to send out the second door. When she was young, Mrs. Zhang also left. Yes, gradually the song ends.

Before leaving, Mrs. Xu said to Daiyu: "The house is too busy right now, so I don't want to disturb you. After the wedding of the lady in the house, I will come to pick up my aunt's house to enjoy the flowers. Our family is not good at anything else. There are a few plum blossoms that bloom brightly in the first month."

Daiyu was naturally happy when she heard this, and she agreed with her whole mouth.

When Xueyan was packing up her things in the evening, she couldn't help beaming with joy, and said: "After the New Year, our girls can come and walk around."

Daiyu was already exhausted after a busy day, she was leaning on the kang, she slowly shook her head when she heard the words, a string of red agate beads in her mouth followed her movements gently swaying.

Seeing this, Xueyan was puzzled, and when she was about to ask, she heard Mother Rong sigh: "Where is it so easy to go out and walk around? Which aristocratic family's daughter is not taken out by the elderly female relatives in the mansion? I watched coldly, old lady I don't like to go out, and the second wife takes Lian and the second grandmother when I go to various houses, but my own daughter doesn't take it with me, so how can I bring a girl with a foreign surname?"

Xueyan was stunned, it turned out that if the lady wants to go out, she must be accompanied by a female elder?

If this is the case, what should Daiyu do?

Could it be that Xu Shi came to pick up Daiyu in person, and Daiyu couldn't go there?

Xueyan couldn't help getting anxious, and Daiyu in front of her couldn't care less about clearing away the things she got today, and said, "Mama, what should I do? How can I socialize if the girl doesn't go out? How can I interact with girls from various families? Since the girl lives In this mansion, I have never been out of the house once, if it is true what Mammy said, there was no such thing in the past, and even less so now."

Socializing is the most important way for Daiyu to expand her personal connections.

When a rich family chooses a daughter-in-law, it also depends on the number of connections.

Daiyu has no parents to rely on, so Xueyan can only increase her bargaining chips one by one, hoping that she can marry a good man.

Nanny Rong frowned and didn't answer, she felt a little difficult, no matter how good etiquette Daiyu learned, no matter how good she was, no matter how many old friends she had at home, it would be useless if no elders took her out to socialize, and she couldn't be bothered She ran to Mrs. Wang and asked her to take Daiyu out, and Nanny Rong had seen the situation in the mansion clearly, she didn't think Mrs. Wang would treat Daiyu so kindly.

Mother Jia really loved Daiyu, but unfortunately she refused to go out.

Seeing that the two of them were very worried, Zhang Momo said with a smile: "What are you worried about? Since the grandma of the Sang family said to invite the girl in person, is it possible that the mansion is still preventing the girl from going out? Even if the girl is not allowed to go out, why not spend more money?" A few taels of silver to set up a few tables of banquets, and post a post to invite the daughters of each family. After walking around a lot, you will naturally get used to it, and the relationship will become closer. When the daughters of each family post posts to invite the girl, it is the time for the girl to go out. Like the grandma of the Sang family, can you still refuse?"

Xueyan smiled and said: "Look at me, I'm so confused, I didn't even think of this!"

Daiyu sat up and said slowly: "You are very smart in the past, but today you are just caring and messing up. Come here and help me take off this hard-working hairpin and loosen my hair. You keep those things for Zijuan tidy."

Xueyan hurriedly turned to her side to remove her make-up, and changed into the bright red clothes she had just worn today.

Xueyan discovered that Daiyu wore bright clothes with an indescribably charming appearance. She is really suitable for light makeup and thick smears. It is not that she likes plain colors as others think. The clothes are simple, but Baochai's clothes are also suitable for everyone's lady, but she wears less jewelry and the clothes are not old, but the fabrics are more luxurious and complicated.

When Daiyu wore plain clothes, it was Jia Min and Lin Ruhai's filial piety period, so the original book focused on Daiyu's clothes twice, but clearly stated that Daiyu had already passed the filial piety period, not that she didn't know the rules, During the filial piety period, she wore red clothes and fell in love with Baoyu.The red dress in the snow is something that will happen next year, but Yuanchun's proclaiming her audience can show that she made a filial piety before Yuanchun's, which is exactly this year, otherwise she can't go to see Yuanchun, even if she doesn't care, the people of Rongguo Mansion Impossible not to be taboo.

Xueyan's thoughts drifted far away, secretly sighing at Mr. Cao's exquisite writing skills, and put the unloaded hairpins and bracelets in the dowry, only to hear Daiyu say: "Just now I looked at the gift of filial piety below today, your godmother Tete sent two bolts of bright red satin, two pots of wintersweet, and two pots of narcissus, saying that they are filial to me, and thank you for me when you go to give the Lai family a new year gift."

Xueyan came back to her senses and said: "I don't go to give presents until the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. There's still half a month left. Let's talk about it then. Besides, my godmother has always been a good person. In what year won't I send my brothers and sisters a lot of light things and flowers Bonsai, just keep it, girl."

Lai’s daughter-in-law really knows how to be a human being. In the original book, it was written that Baoqin was given wintersweet and narcissus. At that time, Baoqin was very fond of Jia’s mother. Now Jia’s mother loves Daiyu the most among the girls. Of course, their family should treat her well. , This is also the reason why everyone Lai has a good reputation in the Rongguo Mansion.

Daiyu said: "It is to her advantage that Mrs. Lai's daughter-in-law knows how to behave. I thank her for being my heart. You must not take it to heart."

Xueyan responded with a smile.

In the past year, she has treated the Lai family sincerely. She has never broken three festivals and two lives. She often has clothes, shoes and socks. She rarely asks about the Lai family's affairs, and never bullies others. news, or the strong relationship between the servants, the feelings between each other are a little closer.

Daiyu changed into homely clothes, wrapped in a crane cloak with big red feather satin and black fox leg leather that Jiamu had given her outside, with a red-headed rope loosely tied on her head, without any floral decorations, sitting on the kang The boss told Zicuckoo: "I got a lot of gold, jade, rings, gold, silver, and fragrant beads as a gift today. I don't need many. Leave some for me to reward people during the New Year, and divide the rest myself."

Except for the Xu family of the Sang family, the female family members who came to congratulate today can be regarded as the elders of Daiyu, no matter how bad they are, they are of the same generation who have been married. Except for Mrs. Zhang, everyone has met for the first time. Not to mention the congratulatory gifts from various families, such as silk and satin rulers, or gold and jade jewelry, most of which are bright colors, suitable for Daiyu to wear after she is filial piety.

So Snow Goose got several of each of the things that Daiyu had distributed, filling up the little box by the bedside.

Although these things are small, they are very delicate, and they are very decent as gifts.

Except for the clothes and jewelry made in the mansion, Xueyan didn't get any extra rewards from above this year, only Daiyu gave some things more or less during the festivals. Seven or eight.

Xueyan likes to count money and hide things. Everyone in Daiyu's room knows it and often makes fun of it. Sure enough, seeing her smiling face, Daiyu laughed again: "Zicuckoo, since she loves this, let's go down." Give her the remaining few rings, they are useless anyway, I can get more next year!"

Zijuan then grabbed the rest of the gold, silver, and jade rings, took a total of two handfuls, and put them into Xueyan's box together.

Xueyan laughed so hard that she couldn't see her teeth.

The New Year's money that Daiyu gets every year has always been second to none in Rongguo Mansion, second only to Baoyu. After all, Baoyu has to go outside, so she gets more money than Daiyu. In Daiyu's room, only gold and silver coins have been saved. The box, Xueyan Zijuan often took it out of the box and sorted it up and down. Sometimes when Daiyu was around, she grabbed it and gave it to them.

Daiyu didn't care about gold, silver and belongings at all, and her hands were always loose. Even if she rewarded her servants, she didn't do it for a purposeful bribe. She always rewarded people during festivals or when she came to give gifts, so the little girl she knew likes to send things. in their room.

Zijuan doesn't care about these things either. Not only does she get more rewards than Xueyan every year, but she also earns more, because her parents are stewards of the mansion, and they have a house and land. Her parents used the money she accumulated over the years last year, of which Most of it was rewarded by Lin Ruhai while he was alive, and with the money collected by the family, he bought a yard and a hundred acres of land, all of which were put in her name.

Xueyan was so envious, she really wanted to buy a house and land to increase her income, but no one made decisions for her.

Although she can ask the Lai family for help, but after all, she has only met her relatives for more than a year, and the Lai family doesn't mention it, so she doesn't want to bother them. Moreover, she doesn't want people to know the amount of money she has saved.

However, she wants to buy a house first, it doesn’t need to be too big, because she doesn’t know when the Rongguo Mansion ransacked the house, and she doesn’t know whether Daiyu can marry before the Jia family ransacked the house. If Daiyu hadn't settled down with someone else, and if he didn't prepare a house, where would the dozen or so masters and servants live?

The Lin family's house in the capital city has not been lived in for many years, and Lin Ruhai did not leave a deed, so it was disposed of by the Rongguo Mansion long ago.

Fortunately, there is still time to plan this matter, so Xue Yan is not in a hurry for now.

When she didn't want to go to Lai's house to kowtow and give gifts, Xueyan expressed her gratitude to Lai's daughter-in-law. Lai's daughter-in-law said with a smile: "Aside from you girls, who else takes it seriously? You girls are too polite. Well, Mrs. Lin has so many old friends, and my uncle's nephew and daughter-in-law are taking care of her, so what are your plans?"

Xueyan said: "What plans can I have? I am young and ignorant, so my godmother gives me an idea."

Lai's daughter-in-law likes that Xueyan is sensible and sensible, and has never troubled her family, so she is willing to help her. After thinking about it, she said: "I remember that Zijuan's parents bought her a house and land last year, and this year's income is enough. There are two or three hundred taels, and a thousand people are envious of them, even the young masters are envious, because their family is smart. No matter in these houses, you have been with Miss Lin for so many years, you must have saved a few, even if it is not enough to buy land, It’s about enough to buy a house and rent it out to earn 300 taels a year.”

When Xueyan heard this, her eyes sparkled, as if she had just dozed off and brought the pillow.

She tried her best to suppress the joy in her heart, but there was a little hesitation on her face, and she said: "I don't have any ideas, and I am afraid that I will be too much trouble for my mother-in-law."

Lai's daughter-in-law said angrily: "What's the trouble? The family is divided. Besides, I won't show up for these things, but I just asked the housekeeper to take care of it for you. I only thought of you when I learned that a good house was about to be sold yesterday." Come on. That house is too small for our family to be of much use, but it is a good deal for you. "

Xueyan knew in her heart that everyone Lai had made a lot of profit from the construction of the family-friendly villa in the past two years. The Rongguo Mansion built the family-friendly villa, and their small garden was also expanded. He didn't pay much attention to the small house, so he asked what kind of house it was and how much it was worth.

Lai's daughter-in-law said: "It's in the Xiaohuazhi alley behind our house. There are about sixteen or seven rooms. The front hall and the back room are complete. It has only been built for two years, and everything is new. The price is 200 taels of silver, together with the furniture. Isn’t it extremely cheap? The original owner of the house was a candidate. Although he had two dollars, he had no power. He hadn’t found a job in a year. He approached your elder brother and introduced the master. He was talking about envoys next year. Trying to find a job, I don't want his mother to die of illness before, and he wants to help Ling return to his hometown. After going there for three years, he has to sell the house. I'll ask someone to keep it for you. If you want it, I'll ask someone to give it to you Transfer, if you don't want it, I'll give it to someone else."

Xueyan hurriedly said: "I can afford 200 taels, and I also want to buy a house, but I often don't come out in the mansion, so I have to ask my godmother to rent it out for me after I buy it." She wanted to see the house with her own eyes. How, but thinking that he is a child, it is not good for her girl to come to her house, and moreover, she believes that the family will not coax her, and it is of no benefit for the Lai family to coax her.

Lai's daughter-in-law smiled and said: "There are housekeepers to take care of it, it's not worth anything! If you want it, I'll send someone to talk about it."

Xueyan said: "I'll go back and get the silver."

Lai's daughter-in-law hurriedly stopped her and said, "What are you busy with? I'll put it on for you first, and ask someone to transfer the title of the house. The deed is in your hands. It's not too late for you to give me the money. But your household registration has to be delivered first. Ask someone to go to the yamen to arrange the transfer."

Knowing that Mrs. Lai's daughter-in-law is very thoughtful, Xueyan said with a smile, "The household registration is put in the dowry."

Although she had already obtained her contract of sale from Daiyu, she did not go to the yamen to cancel her registration, and put her household registration in the mustard seed, which was hung in the Lin family. After she finished speaking with Mrs. Lai, she went back to her room He opened the dowry and pretended to search, but actually quietly took out the household registration from the mustard seeds and handed it to Lai's daughter-in-law.

The room that Lai's family tidied up for her was very spacious and elegantly furnished, and it looked no worse than Lai Xinrong's. Usually, whatever Lai Xinrong had, Lai's eldest daughter-in-law would often send it to her at the mansion. There are a lot of maids and maids to serve, plus the maids and maids I brought when I went out, so I really look like a rich lady.

Stayed at Lai's house for one night, and the deed and household registration were delivered the next day.

Xueyan sighed secretly that the Lai family's work was simple and fast.

Lai's daughter-in-law showed it to her, and said, "The white deed doesn't have to pay taxes. I don't think it's good that you can take over the house with the deed. This is the red deed. The red deed means paying taxes and paying the silver. It's documented in the yamen." , even if you lose the deed, you only need to go to the yamen, the house is still yours, and another deed will be bought for you, and no one else can occupy your house with the deed."

Xueyan read it carefully, and saw that it detailed the sixteen-and-a-half rooms and the number of furniture in Xiaohuazhi Alley's new house in the past two years, as well as her name, house payment, tax money, transfer date, address, etc., and she felt joyful in her heart. .

She is now a homeowner.

Solemnly thanked Mrs. Lai, Xueyan immediately freed up her savings after returning home, Daiyu asked curiously, and heard that she wanted to buy a house, which was just behind the Rongguo Mansion, and immediately asked Zijuan to take out ten ingots of five Giving her two taels of silver, Lin Ruhai thought very carefully. I'm afraid the ingots are too big to be useful, so the biggest gold and silver box left for Daiyu was five taels and one ingot, and said: "When Zijuan bought a house and land, I gave it to her. 50 taels of silver, and I will give you 50 taels today."

Xueyan was startled, but did not refuse, then picked up those odds and ends of gold and silver coins and coins to make up more than 200 taels.

Lai's daughter-in-law accepted it with a smile, and said: "The son has to finish his mother's funeral, and he can only move out after the first month of the month. After their family moves out, let them hang out for a few days. I will ask you to come out and look at the house, and then rent it." Get out. The houses in the area behind our mansion are very easy to rent out. For a house like this, you can pay back five or sixty taels of silver a year, and you will get back the capital in three or four years."

Xueyan was grateful in her heart, thank you again and again.

However, Lai's daughter-in-law has no time to take care of this matter, because the affairs in the house are so complicated that even the masters have not had a good year, Xueyan doesn't care, and just stays with Dai in the room Jade.

Daiyu is now a filial piety, and she often goes out and about, and the busyness of the house does not affect her in the slightest. Although Sister Feng is on good terms with her now, Daiyu doesn't bother her, knowing that Sister Feng is the busiest, so Li Wan's place is the one she goes to the most often. In addition to taking care of Jia Lan, Li Wan is lonely and welcomes Daiyu, but it happens that Sanchun lives in her hut, so Daiyu often runs into them.

Xueyan agrees that Daiyu and Li Wan are good friends, and in the original book, Li Wan is also a man with a plan.

Daiyu is a man of great talent, a noble family, and a serious student of the Four Books. Li Wan can't teach Jia Lan anything. She understands that every time he comes, Jia Lan has to ask for advice from the Four Books. One day he suddenly said: "The family school is very messy, the old master is not as good as my aunt!"

Li Wan felt sad when he heard that, and couldn't help wiping away tears with a handkerchief.

Sitting on the kang with a book in her hand, Daiyu was puzzled and asked, "The family school is the foundation of the family. If there is chaos, it will ruin the life of the children. Why doesn't the old man care about it?" She was enlightened by Lin Ruhai since she was a child. Mr. Xixi was hired to teach. Although he knew that the family school in the aristocratic family was the most important thing, he didn't know that the family school in Rongguo Mansion was full of smoke.

Jialan was three years younger than Daiyu, and he was still a child. Seeing that Daiyu taught him to be careful, he was very grateful, so he didn't hide Daiyu, and said truthfully: "When Uncle Rui was here, the old man still had a lot of energy to take care of him. Even at that time, the chaos was unbelievable. Uncle Rui often blackmailed the students in the family school to buy wine and meat for him. In addition, there were several elementary school students who were not good. Years ago, when the second uncle went to school with Mr. Qin, he was friendly with them, and had a big fight with Grandma Huang’s nephew in the back porch because of this! Soon after, Uncle Rui died, and the old man became discouraged, so he didn’t care about teaching. gone."

Daiyu frowned more and more when she heard this, but Xueyan secretly applauded when she heard it, she finally knew another side of Baoyu.

Seeing this, Li Wan hurriedly reprimanded Aizi and said: "You are young, what words have you learned to tell your aunt, carefully, the old lady and master know it, and they have exposed your skin!"

Jia Lan poked his neck and said, "Mum and aunt don't talk about it, how do the old lady and the master know? Besides, I don't often appear in front of the old lady and the master except during the holidays."

When Li Wan heard this, his heart became more and more painful.

Daiyu hurriedly comforted: "Brother Lan, for your mother's sake, you can't let outsiders know about this."

Jia Lan nodded sullenly, and said, "Except for my mother and aunt, I never say this in front of outsiders. Don't worry, aunt."

Daiyu was slightly relieved, glanced at Li Wan, and persuaded: "Sister-in-law, don't be sad, Brother Lan works so hard, and he can read the Four Books well. In the future, I will earn a phoenix crown for my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law's life will be better. "

These words made Li Wan feel very comfortable. She had been a widow for many years, and she was suffocating in her heart. She just wanted to teach Jia Lan to become a talent in the future so that she could be proud, but she couldn't tell Daiyu these words, and sighed: "I only hope that he will be normal." It’s just An’an, I can’t study like your big brother is struggling for his life, it will damage his body, so every time he gets tired from reading, I ask him to practice riding and archery, but no one teaches him, he doesn’t look like that, and today’s family school is like that , I was so worried that I couldn’t sleep at night.”

Daiyu frowned and said: "The family school is not good? Why didn't my sister-in-law tell my uncle? Uncle is most looking forward to the improvement of his children and grandchildren. My sister-in-law said that she will definitely rectify the atmosphere of the family school. Even if she doesn't, she can probably hire a teacher for Brother Lang gentlemen."

Li Wan smiled wryly, and sent Jia Lan to review the homework that Daiyu had just taught. Fang whispered: "My good sister, I am a widow, how can I see my father-in-law? I can't tell my wife about this. You know, Baoyu has never I love reading, if for this reason, the master thinks of Baoyu's distaste for reading and beats and scolds Baoyu, wouldn't it be the fault of Brother Lan and me?"

One of their mother and son lost their husband and the other lost their father. I don’t know how many people said that they ordered Kefuke’s father hard, which made it difficult for the two of them in the mansion. Mrs. Wang didn’t take any extra care. The monthly money of two silvers, except for the yearly and monthly bills, has no other income, and she is a widow who can't take care of things, so naturally the mother and son are not taken seriously by the people below, and their situation is just a little bit better than Jiahuan's.

Even if she has the heart to teach her son to be a talent, but the family school is too chaotic, and there is no husband, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Daiyu said displeased: "My sister-in-law is so afraid of things, so she is only Baoyu, and will it delay the progress of other descendants?"

She never persuaded Baoyu to become famous, because she understood Baoyu's temperament, and she was an outsider, not qualified to advise, so she never said these words, Baoyu respected her deeply, but her father Lin Ruhai once rode a horse and paraded through the streets Infinite Tanhualang, she herself has read the Four Books and Five Classics, how could she really despise reading and make progress?

Li Wan shook his head, the tears on his face were still wet, and there were new traces.

Daiyu thought for a while, looked up at Xueyan, remembered that she had more ideas, and asked, "What good idea do you have?"

Xueyan was stunned, and said with a smile: "Miss asked me? I don't have any good ideas. After all, it's about Lan Ge'er's future. We can't make decisions, and neither can Grandma. To ask Mr. Xixi, the second master must come forward Just do it."

It's not something their female relatives can do to hire a teacher for Jalan.

After all, Daiyu's thinking was too naive, Xueyan said again: "It would be great if Lang Ge'er was asked to study outside, but the school outside must be good? We don't know. Got it, how do you look at the mansion? If the mansion knows and loses face, can you not blame Grandma and Brother Lan?"

Daiyu asked anxiously: "Could it be that you are really at a loss? Grandma can't pay Lang Geer to hire a husband by herself?"

Xueyan sighed, and said: "Mr., you have to use the post from the mansion to invite you. Where did Grandma get the post from the mansion? Second, if you invite your husband, you must have a study room for class. Naturally, Grandma can't do it here." Yes, if it is placed in the master's study, how can the master not know? Besides, the master appreciates antiques, calligraphy and paintings with Qingke every day, and there is no place for Lange to study in the study."

The more Xueyan talked, the lower Daiyu's head drooped, and she said for a long time: "Is there really no way out?"

Li Wan forced a smile and said: "Since it's impossible, let's trouble Sister Lau Lin to come a few more times to teach Lan Er's homework. Although I can read those books, I can't compare with my sister who has been taught by my uncle."

Daiyu was about to agree, but Xueyan said: "There is a way, but I don't know if it will work."

Daiyu and Li Wan asked questions.

Xueyan said: "Anyway, when the second master doesn't go to the yamen, he doesn't care about the family affairs at home, and is very leisurely. Otherwise, how can he have the energy to drink and enjoy with the Qing guests? Why don't you ask Lan Geer to go to the second master often to ask for homework, so Several times, find another opportunity to complain, don't say it too clearly, as long as it is true or false, it will easily arouse the second master's suspicion. If the second master is interested, he only needs to go to the family school. The master loves his grandson, so he will naturally give Lang Geer an explanation, or rectify the family school atmosphere and hire another great scholar to take care of it, or hire another teacher for Lang Geer to teach."

If Jia Zheng wants face like that, he will definitely not ignore it.

Xue Yan never knew how to evaluate Jia Zheng.Saying that he can read, he is not a serious imperial examination; it has been 20 years since Jia Daishan's death from the title of sixth-rank principal, and now he can be promoted to fifth-rank Yuanwailang. It can be seen that he really has no ability; , no matter what happened, it was all taken care of by the second-class people Jia Amnesty, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian and Lai Dalai. There are many hidden places in various projects, and he doesn't know that a large amount of money has been embezzled, and he doesn't understand the slightest commonplace affairs; It is said that he has a straight personality, not frivolous, but he lives in Rongxi Hall. Yes, there are five main rooms in Rongxi Hall. The one who does not live in this main room is Mrs. Wang. There are three side rooms, while Jia She lives in a corner, living in the southeast corner of Rongguo Mansion, with a stable outside.

Although many people say that it is justifiable for the elders to live with the youngest son regardless of the fact that Jia’s mother is here, so Jia Zheng is allowed to live in Rongxitang, but it must be known that Jia’s mother does not live with Jia Zheng. It's normal to live with Jia Zheng in Rongxi Hall, but Jia's mother lives in the large courtyard to the west of the main courtyard of Rongxi Hall, which is like the location of the Palace of Compassion and Peace in the imperial palace.

However, civil and martial arts are different, and most of those who come from the army have rough rules. Although the Rongguo Mansion has been passed down for several generations, it has not yet broken away from the rough general atmosphere, so Xueyan thinks it is probably because of this, so their mansion doesn't care much about the elders and concubines.

Regardless of whether this is the case, Xueyan thinks that Jia Zheng is a prudish.Thinking about the original book, Baoyu and Jia Huan have already spotted the people in the house. I don’t know how to spot them, unless it’s the girl in Mrs. Wang’s courtyard. If it’s not Mrs. Wang but Baoyu or someone else, Then it would really be a joke, as a father to observe the maid next to his son?

In addition, to be able to give birth to a daughter as beautiful as Tanchun, Aunt Zhao's appearance is indeed very good, but after several observations by Xueyan, she is definitely not as good as Mrs. Wang's appearance and demeanor.People like Jia Baoyu and Jia Yuanchun were born, including the servants who mentioned Jia Zhu as handsome, and Mrs. Wang is Sister Feng's aunt, Xue Baochai's aunt, and Sister Feng Xue Baochai's appearance is first-class.Even though he is almost 50 years old now, the charm still exists.

Mrs. Wang and Aunt Zhao are equally beautiful, but what Jia Zheng likes most now is Aunt Zhao, a black-hearted and rotten person. Don't say that Mrs. Wang is a Bodhisattva and has no interest. Mrs. Wang can give birth to Jia Baoyu in her 30s, definitely not A wooden person with no taste, of course, she is not as good as Aunt Zhao because Aunt Zhao is younger than her, and she is not yet 30 years old.

I have to say that Aunt Zhao is really extremely despicable and despicable, with a very cruel heart and no brains. Although she hasn't done all the actions in the original book, Xueyan has seen what this person does, and the only thing she can do It's just a face.

It happened that such a character was favored by Jia Zheng. In the original book, he said to Jia Mu that the coffins and clothes of Sister Feng and Baoyu were all ready. Jia Mu spit on her face, but Jia Zheng didn’t scold him at all. I don’t think it’s strange. ?I remember that when Baoyu and Sister Feng were tortured, Jia Zheng gave up, and Jia Amnesty was still in a hurry trying to find a way!

Xueyan thought, the only reason why Jia Zheng dotes on Aunt Zhao more now is probably because she dislikes Mrs. Wang for being old and decrepit. No matter how beautiful a woman is, she still has charm. After all, she is an old woman who is almost 50 years old.

Therefore, Xueyan disliked Jia Zhengzhi very much, he must not be as upright as outsiders commented.

Some readers think that Jia Zheng loves Daiyu more, so Daiyu said in the original book to complain to her uncle, but Xueyan thinks that Daiyu said that because she knew that Baoyu was afraid of Jia Zheng.Besides, Xueyan has been with Daiyu for so long, and she has never seen Jia Zheng take extra care of this niece.What's more, Daiyu didn't meet her when she came to Jia's mansion for the first time, and she didn't express anything afterwards. It's not as beautiful as what Jia Amnesty said back then!It is true that Jia Amnesty did not see Daiyu either, but what he said fit his identity.

Jia Zheng's only advantage is probably that he pays attention to decency and reputation in everything, and he will not do things like bullying others and forcing a girl to be a concubine. This alone is much better than Jia She. Kill the fan to death!Even though Jia Amnesty didn't do it himself, but his actions are effective and the officials protect each other. After all, it is his greed that caused the trouble.

The reason why Xueyan came up with this method is because Jia Zheng pays attention to reputation and decency. If Jia Lan implements this method, it is very possible to get rid of the bad atmosphere of the family school.

Of course, Xueyan didn't think that she would be able to achieve her goal.

Li Wan and Daiyu were thoughtful, and Li Wan asked for a long time: "What if there is no conclusion for both of them?"

Xueyan spread her hands and said: "If the second master doesn't care about Brother Lan's future, we will really be helpless."

She hoped that Jia Lan could go to school outside, see the unique scenery outside and in the mansion, and hear how stinky and bad the reputation of Rongguo Mansion outside is, she would be more open-minded, and maybe she would not treat Miss Qiao in the future Stand by and watch.

Many people say that Jia Lan is the villainous brother among the ruthless uncles. In fact, Xueyan doesn't agree with it. Although she thought about it once before, she changed her mind after getting to know Li Wan's mother and son. It's true that it's just such a son, and it's not like Sister Feng's housekeeper who has a lot of money. Can you save money for your son to manage later?Just like what the verdict says, she was granted the title of imperial order in the end and wore a phoenix coronet and Xiapei. It is a pity that her son died early, so she failed her original intentions in vain.

Jia Lan took the name Lan. Orchids are noble and noble things, so they are praised for their character, but Jia Rong and Jia Qiang in Ningguo Mansion can also be called Qiaojie's elder brother.The original book does not say that Jia Lan is Sister Feng's nephew, nor does it mention their conflicts. After Jia Rong is Sister Feng's nephew, after what happened to Sister You and Sister You, Sister Feng made a big fuss in Ningguo Mansion, Jia Zhenyou and Jia Rong really don't hate Fan at all?Moreover, with Jia Rong's personality, a black heart and a rotten heart, if he suffers in front of Sister Feng, can he not take revenge on Sister Qiao?

Therefore, Xueyan is more inclined that Li Wan may stand by and watch, but Jia Lan is by no means the villainous brother among the ruthless uncles.

Li Wan didn't know that Xueyan had thought of these things. She listened to Xueyan's words and thought about it for a long time. Although she was a little apprehensive, she still said: "For Lan'er, I have to give it a go."

The implication is that he intends to use the method Xue Yan said.

After hearing this, Daiyu said: "Sister-in-law, you might as well take it easy, it won't be too late to talk about it after the mother-in-law."

Li Wan nodded and said: "Sister, don't worry, at this time I will naturally not ask Lan Geer to disturb the master without winking. I will talk about it after the first lunar month. By then, the family's major affairs will be over and the master will be free."

In the blink of an eye, it was the Lantern Festival, and since the eighth day of the first lunar month, the mansion has been solemn and solemn. The superiors have already ordered that no one is allowed to run around. Finally, it came to the Lantern Festival, because Daiyu is not from the Jia family. People who live here don't have to wait outside with Jia Mu, Mrs. Xing Wang, Sister Feng and others like Sanchun, but read in their own room. Although they don't have to wait, they are all dressed in clothes and jewelry in case Yuanchun summons them.

Xueyan smiled and said: "In such a cold day, if the girl waits outside for half a day, won't she freeze to death? We are so comfortable."

Daiyu also smiled when she heard this.

She didn't take this matter very seriously, so she was naturally not as honored as the people in Jia's mansion.

At that moment, Aunt Xue and Baochai came over, and Daiyu only
