After Jia Rui was born, everyone in Rongguo Mansion loved him very much. Even Jia Shishi, who had always been partial to Jia Baoyu, loved this great-grandson so much that he wanted to take him to his house several times to raise him.

But Wang Xifeng laughed and laughed and refused, joking, how could it be her own son's turn to be raised by others.Another one, even Wang Xifeng herself couldn't tell whether Jia Shishi wanted to take Brother Rui away because she liked it, or whether she wanted to return to the top of the pyramid in Rongguo Mansion so as to control her husband and wife.

Even Jia Lian was not happy, he worked hard every day outside, playing tricks on everyone up and down, just to make a future for his son.No matter how tired he is outside, when he comes back and sees his son's chubby face, he will feel tired and satisfied.

But Jia Shishi is the elder after all, and Wang Xifeng and his wife couldn't refuse many times. At the critical moment, Jia Amnesty, the unscrupulous bastard, ran to the Rongqing Hall and made a big fuss, holding Jia Zheng, Jia Zhu, and Jia Baoyu together. There was a threat to one's future, and then Jia Shishi calmed down.

In June of that year, there was a sudden heavy rain in Dagan, which broke down many embankments, and countless refugees fled for their lives. Even at the feet of the emperor like the capital, many victims came.Zhonggong died early, and today there is no successor Lixin. The princess took the lead and organized all the nobles in the palace, as well as the wives and grandmas of various aristocratic families, to raise money to help the people.

It's just that it is not a good way to flow out a large amount of food and money every day. After a long time, everyone will not be too happy.

On this day, Wang Xifeng was leaning against the beauty, frowning and thinking about something.Jia Lian is now a member of the household department, Wailang, and the household department is in charge of money. Now that the flood has struck, money is everywhere. Jia Lian has not been home for a long time.

As for Wang Xifeng, when she worked with the Crown Princess last time, she caught the Crown Princess's eyes because of her superb means and generous actions.At the beginning, it was naturally beautiful, but now when the other wives shrank their heads and went back, she had to continue to spend a lot of money to continue disaster relief.Even with her generous dowry and the fact that she is in charge of the huge Rongguo Mansion, she is quite powerless.

Ping'er had been accompanying him all the time, but suddenly his heart moved slightly, thinking that this was the best time for him to leave Rongguo Mansion.She made a draft in her heart, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "Grandma is worried about the disaster victims?"

Wang Xifeng looked up at her lazily, nodded for the invisible, and shook her head again: "Where is it my turn to worry about those things? I just think that these disaster victims are rushing into Beijing like this , we sprinkled out the white rice and silver, but we couldn't even hear it, it's really..."

"Grandma, I don't know if I should say something or not?" Ping'er looked at Wang Xifeng tentatively, with a hesitant look on his face.

"You've always been clever. If you want to say something, then say it. If what you say is reasonable, I'll have something to slap you." Wang Xifeng looked at Ping'er, feeling emotional in his heart.At the beginning, this servant girl was just pointing at me casually, but now she has become my right and left hand. Compared with Feng'er, An'er, and Le'er's families who have children, she is more useful.

Moreover, Ping'er has made a disguise, and now he is only a middle-class talent, and in a place like Rongguo Mansion where beauties gather, he can't show his color at all.There is such a great beauty as Wang Xifeng by her side, like green leaves lining red flowers, Wang Xifeng looks more and more beautiful, and Jia Lian doesn't have half of her mind on Ping'er, so she won Wang Xifeng's reuse.

"I was thinking that the reason why these disaster victims need help every day is because they have no property in Beijing. You should know that every plant and tree in this capital costs money. If they have no money, they can only wait With the help of the government."

When Ping'er said this, Wang Xifeng interrupted: "I don't know that they have no money, but many people are reluctant to give away meals for free. Is it possible that they still have to give money?"

"Grandma, don't worry. I'm not talking about giving money for free. We can hire them to work, take care of two meals a day, and give some silver taels. Anyway, we are going to feed them now. Spring Didn’t you say that the road to Xishanzhuangzi was full of potholes, and you wanted to find someone to make it up?”

When Wang Xifeng heard this, he clapped his hands suddenly, and said cheerfully: "Good idea! It's hard for you to think of it, not only our family, but other families also have a place to get workers. Whether it's building roads and digging lakes, or saying Landfilling in mountains is a place for employing people, and in previous years, they hired long-term workers from the family and nearby villagers and tenants, which is also a lot of money."

"Pack up your things and prepare the carriage, let's go to the princess! No, no, don't go to the princess, go to your second master. We can do this, but we can do it even more now. In previous years, we had to build roads and bridges. An order must be issued, and manpower is readily available now."

Wang Xifeng stood up and called the servant girl to come and change her clothes. She has always been a hot-tempered person, so she got on the carriage to the Ministry of Households in a short while and galloped all the way to the gate of the Yamen of the Ministry of Households.

Inside, Jia Lian was listening to a group of people arguing, people asking for money everywhere, and when he was in a state of desperation, he suddenly heard a small official come in to announce that Jia Jialian's second grandmother was outside the door, waiting for Jia Yuanwailang to go out.

"Hey, it's the old man's fault. With your time limited, Mr. Jia might as well go home first, and just come over tomorrow. You guys have also lived in the mansion for a long time. The wives and children at home My old mother is worried, so go back and get dressed first, and change the stinky clothes before you come back." Mr. Sun, the left servant of the household department, joked a few words with a smile, and was impatient to fight with other departments again. Let everyone go and rest.

Everyone laughed for a while, Jia Lian was a little embarrassed, his handsome face was flushed, he hurriedly saluted everyone, and hurriedly hid.When they arrived at the gate of the government office, they saw Jia's carriage parked on one side.

Jia Lian walked over in two or three steps, lifted the curtain and sat on it, and asked angrily, "How did you find this place? Just now, Mr. Sun and all his colleagues were here, and you thought I couldn't live without my wife. It's really embarrassing."

Wang Xifeng was a little happy to see Jia Lian at first, but now that she heard this, she pulled her face down and said angrily, "Second Master Lian has such a great official power that he played it on his family. They didn't come to look for you." Yes, but there is an opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune, and I don't want to miss it."

When Jia Lian saw that Sister Feng was angry, she didn't dare to play tricks anymore, and hurried over to flatter her: "Good grandma, don't be angry, I was deceived by lard for a while, but I was just teased by some colleagues, and I can't save face. You and For Brother Rui's sake, don't argue with me."

Wang Xifeng let Jia Lian's spirits down, flattered her in every possible way, and this time she turned her anger into joy, and said with a smile: "It turns out that I and Heping were at home, worrying about disaster relief. That girl was clever and thought of a work-for-relief." Way, I heard it was good, so I came to you in a hurry and gave you a chance to make meritorious deeds. But when you met, it was just a row, which made my heart go cold."

When Jia Lian heard the words "relief with work", she felt a little interesting. After hearing the words, she coaxed Wang Xifeng a few more words, and then asked, "I've never heard of this word. Relief with work? Let's go Where can we find so many ways to survive for these disaster victims?"

Wang Xifeng smiled complacently: "Who has no way to survive, that is, the road that our family said was going to be built on the West Mountain. It has been almost a year and no one has been found to start the construction. And I heard that Mrs. Zhao of Dali Temple wants to build it. How easy is it to dig a big lake like ours in a garden? Not to mention the official roads everywhere, which need to be repaired every year, and there are plenty of places to employ people."

Jia Lian clapped his hands and exclaimed: "What a coincidence! There are also royal tombs and palaces everywhere! Now the Wanshou Garden in the western suburbs has been shut down due to the disaster. Although the Queen Mother doesn't say it, she may not be happy in her heart. .If we invite the victims to go, not to mention saving money, but also rushing the construction period, we may not be able to make it in time for the Wanshou Festival next year."

"Good brother Feng, you have helped me a lot. I will go to find Mr. Sun now, and I won't go back today. You can ask Xing'er to send me two sets of clean clothes later, and prepare some refreshing Yi Kehua The food is here, adults, these days I have been eating steamed buns and drinking cold water, and I haven't had a good meal for a long time."

Jia Lian was so happy that she hugged Wang Xifeng and kissed her a few times. The maids beside her all blushed and turned their heads away.Although Wang Xifeng had always been bold, he had never been so frivolous on such occasions. He was so angry that he hit him twice. Seeing Jia Lian's unshaven face and dark circles under his eyes, he felt a little distressed.

"Understood, you go in quickly. Although the business is important, you should pay more attention to your body. You are a man of Lao Tzu. If you can't take care of yourself, what will you tell Brother Rui and me to do?"

Wang Xifeng sang and beat her repeatedly, showing a lot of tenderness, which made Jia Lian look straight at her, but it's a pity that she has business to do now, but her heart is so hot that she can't help it.

Jia Lian hurried back to the Yamen of the Household Department, and Wang Xifeng also asked the servant to drive the carriage back to the Rongguo Mansion, and ordered the maid to prepare food and clothing in the kitchen.

Because the weather is extremely hot, people are bored, and the affairs of the household department are complicated, Wang Xifeng specially prepared many kinds of pills and a large box of sour plum cream to take with him.In this way, anyone who has a headache and a loss of appetite can respond in an emergency.After Jia Lian received this big bag of things, his heart became even warmer for this virtuous wife and beautiful lady, and there is no need to mention the strong relationship between husband and wife.

Besides, Jia Lian left the Yamen in a hurry and came back in a hurry.Before the other household officials had time to leave, they saw Jia Lian rushing back with a happy face, and Master Sun was a little surprised: "Mr. , the old man needs to back up Dali."

Jia Lian laughed, saluted and replied: "It is indeed a happy event, but it is not my family's happy event, but our household department's happy event. I would like to trouble you to listen carefully."
