[Red Mansions] Male wife

Jia Xiuyun squinted at Jia Rong, and said with a sneer, "What else is going on, your old man doesn't want to practice Taoism and refine medicine anymore."

"Of course I saw this. I wanted to ask you what trick you used to fool the old man into not practicing. When the old man just realized Taoism, how many people tried to persuade him, and whoever was beaten with a swollen nose and kicked out? If you don't see him, the old man will change his mind. How can you get two chickens in, and the old man will listen to you?"

"That's because the old man discovered that the elixir he spent most of his life practicing could poison people, not to mention immortality." Jia Xiuyun looked at Jia Rong with strange eyes.It's not that you ancients like to trade cinnabar and other things rich in heavy metals to make alchemy, and in the end you get lead and mercury poisoning, and your death is uglier than anyone else.In order to save Jia Jing's life, he gave birth to two chickens in vain. I hope that Jia Jing after leaving the mountain will not let down the chickens that died for him.

When the car drove to the main entrance of Ningguo Mansion, the servant beside Jia Rong jumped out of the car early and went to the mansion to inform.Jia Jing, Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng and others went out of the mansion to welcome them. These people hadn't seen Jia Jing for a long time. Seeing that he really got out of the car and entered the mansion, they couldn't believe it. Everyone's eyes fell on Jia Jing.Observe that Jia Jing is wearing a Taoist robe, his face is older than before, he has a long beard, and his body has been completely thin... As expected of a monk, he is pure-hearted and ascetic. At first glance, he seems to be more energetic than before .

Jia Zhen paid homage to the old father respectfully, and personally helped him to the main hall.Along the way, Jia Jing didn't speak, but moved his eyes to observe the surrounding conditions and environment.After he led the members of the Jia family to sit down, Jia Jing coughed and looked at Jia Xiuyun and Jia Rong who were standing at the door.

"I have been away from the mansion for more than ten years, but I have missed a lot of good things in my family. Now our Jia family also has such excellent juniors. The younger generation is awesome, not bad! It is the political brother who is good at teaching children." Jia Jing said the last sentence Only then did everyone understand that he was praising Jia Xiuyun.Everyone followed the trend and looked towards Jia Xiuyun.

Jia Zheng stood up with a smile and thanked him, the smile on his face was full of pride.The first thing the old patriarch of the Jia family said when he came back was to praise his son, how could he not make him feel proud.

"Where's your son who was born with jade? I remember that this child was pink and tender when he was a child, and he was very cute. At that time, I said that this child must be a handsome and romantic figure in the future. Why don't you see him today?" Jia Jing mentioned Baoyu and said.

Jia Zheng looked embarrassed and explained Baoyu's illness in embarrassment.

"Hehe, this child has a pure and kind heart." Jia Jing sighed, wondering if Baoyu was mentally ill. His granddaughter-in-law died, and Baoyu, as an uncle, vomited blood and hurt his spirits.If this matter gets out, it might be arranged by others.Jia Jing glanced away at Jia Zheng from the corner of his eye. His younger brother had been an official for many years, and he didn't seem to have learned how to communicate with others.Even if this kind of thing is true, in front of everyone, he should say that his son is sick because of other things.Besides, Baoyu is so worthless, Jia Zheng said it so bluntly, it seems that he, as a father, has not taught him well.An official appointed by the court, whose children have not been properly disciplined, how could the court and the emperor entrust him with important responsibilities.

Jia Jing sighed again and again in his heart, it seems that the Jia family has been in decline for more than ten years without him.I think that the Rongning Second Mansion, which was famous all over the country in the past, now has to rely on marrying a son to gain wealth and beg for official positions.

Back then, Jia Jing was tired of enjoying the wealth and prosperity of Jia's family. When he reached the point where he wanted nothing, he packed his luggage and went to the Taoist temple to study the way of ascension to immortality.For these years, he has never cared about world affairs. When he went out to observe today, he realized that the world has changed and the world has changed.As for the descendants of Jia's family, all of them are dandies, and they are about to ruin the family. There are one or two good ones, but they are too weak to turn the tide.

Fortunately, that kid Xiuyun woke him up with two chicken bites.Now Jia Jing has also thought about it and wants to go another way.Since he can't be a figure admired by people in the sky, he will be an underground one.He wanted to revitalize the Jia family, so that the children of other families could not catch up.

Jia Zhen briefly told Jia Jing about the funeral of her daughter-in-law Qin, and explained to him the grand occasion of the funeral tomorrow.Jia Jing squinted his eyes and listened without speaking.Jia Zhen felt that the old father might be angry, and looked at Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng worriedly, hoping that the two brothers could ask for help, but he himself did not dare.

"Brother respect, my nephew is right. Tomorrow's burial will not be in vain for the filial piety she did during her lifetime. The Ning family will also gain face." Jia She said.

"Bullshit face! You, are you willing to ransack our whole family's house!" Jia Jing glared at Jia Zhen, ordering her to quickly put down the extravagant decorations at the funeral, and the funeral will be held tomorrow, and everything will be kept simple according to the rules. "You also know that the families and princes are going to set up road sacrifices, so keep your eyes on us. You should be more cautious in terms of rules. Why do you feel good and waste more and more? Who can guarantee that there are no bad people among these people? Jealousy and unhappy with our family? If someone hurts us secretly once, it will be enough for us to suffer for a lifetime. In the imperial city, at the feet of the emperor, you, ah, how can you be so ignorant and arrogant!"

Jia Jing was so angry that he shook his beard and his hands.After he reprimanded, he put his hands behind his back angrily and prepared to find a room to change clothes. When he passed by Jia Zhen who was kneeling on the ground, he angrily stretched out his hand and patted Jia Zhen's head, warning her to think about it.

As soon as Jia Jing left, Jia Zhenfang was helped up by his son Jia Rong.He didn't care too much, and hurriedly asked someone to pack up his things, and everything was done according to his father's wishes.Those in charge were a little embarrassed to hear this. If there was no leader to guide them, they would be in a mess, and the funeral tomorrow might not go smoothly.

Jia Zhen hurriedly pulled Jia Xiuyun to plead, asking him to take full responsibility for the matter.He was afraid that Jia Xiuyun would not agree because of their previous argument, so he promised him many benefits in a low voice.

Jia Xiuyun laughed, the lion opened his mouth and said: "I don't want what you said, I want a good thing, how dare you give it?"

"what?"

"Is the Xuanzhen Temple used by your old man to practice Taoism the property of your family?"

Jia Zhen was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "Indeed, but what do you want to do with that broken Taoist temple? Could it be that you got the old man out and wanted to go in by yourself?"

"Give me the title deed, so what's the point of talking so much?" Jia Xiuyun wasn't polite at all, it was his legal income.

Jia Zhen had no objection, and immediately sent someone to fetch it. "However, I don't know if the old man is determined not to leave. If he changes his mind and wants to..."

"Don't worry, I won't rob the old man. If he doesn't want it, I will. If he really goes back, I'll just return it to you." Jia Xiuyun said cheerfully.

Jia Zhen nodded, it doesn't matter.That Taoist temple is healthy in the middle of the mountain, and there is nothing valuable, and so is that mountain. It can pay for a few cars of firewood every year, which is not even as good as a chicken rib.That mountain was not a fertile soil at all, so it was used to build a Taoist temple in the first place.Jia Zhen is very satisfied with this transaction, what he originally promised to give Jia Xiu is a few pieces of jade, which are much more valuable than that mountain.Well, he saved it.

The next day, when Qin Keqing went to the funeral, Baoyu also came to see him off.The funeral procession in Ningfu was shortened a lot, even the number of Taoist priests who led the way was reduced from 48 to [-].Baoyu followed the team weeping and crying. Sure enough, he met King Beijing on his way and got a bracelet from him.King Bei Jing also noticed Jia Xiuyun, and said kindly that he had met Pei Jin a few times when he was a child, and they were considered friends. From this point of view, they could also be called friends because of Jia Xiuyun.

Seeing the pink-faced and tender King Bei Jing, Jia Xiuyun felt inexplicably disliked. Even though the world called him gentle and kind, Jia Xiuyun didn't like him very much. He just said something perfunctory. They came for the funeral, not for a chat.

The Road Sacrifice set up by Pei's residence was the last one. After he nodded with Jia Xiuyun, he didn't say anything more.Turn around and wait for him at the old place, wait for Jia Xiuyun to finish his work, then meet him at the restaurant.

"You have quite a lot of tricks. I think the Ning Mansion has restrained a lot." Pei Jin continued to laugh, "I heard about it, but I didn't expect you to have an idea to invite your old patriarch back."

"I can't help it. When the Lord found out that the location of Xuanzhen Temple is close to your property, he became a 'thief' at that time, and naturally he would try his best to invite him out of the mountain." Jia Xiuyun said with emotion.

"It doesn't belong to my family anymore, it has become a bride price for you." Pei Jin corrected.

"Oh, yes, it's all the Lord's. I heard that this year's Dragon Boat Festival, the emperor will still invite the children of the aristocratic families to race the dragon boat?"

Pei Jin nodded, "Why are you interested in boating?"

"No, think of a way later, and count me in." After Jia Xiuyun explained, he stood up hastily, slapped his ass and left. "Ningfu still has a lot of things to deal with, and I have to go to work for a day." After speaking, Jia Xiuyun got in the car and said goodbye to Pei Jin.

Just as Jia Jing returned to Daoning State Mansion, many servants in the mansion had already changed, so they didn't know his temperament and majesty.Jia Jing must take this opportunity to assert his authority and intimidate everyone.It so happened that when Jia Zheng and Jia Zhen were discussing about the Jia family school, Jia Jing came in and asked about the scandalous affairs of the previous school, Jia Jing immediately slapped the table to rectify it.

Jia Jing is not a person who does not miss old love, but Jia Dairu is indeed old and frail, and his knowledge is limited.Jia Jing directly made him a deputy manager who didn't care about anything, and hired Song Juren, a well-known local teacher in the capital, to take charge of this matter.

Song Juren was a proud and arrogant person. Because he was dissatisfied with the corrupt style of officials inside the imperial court and feared being polluted by the dirty atmosphere, he resigned and stayed at home to find leisure. He came just right to manage the Jia family school.No one above him cares about him, and the students below him will respect him and listen to him.Song Juren agreed immediately, and used his untapped talents in the school. Within a month, the atmosphere in Jia's school would be correct.

At the emperor's dragon boat race, Jia Xiuyun met Wu Tianzhong, the grandson of the Taifu, and the two chatted very well.Later, under the three or two months of contact and communication, it can be regarded as a bosom friend.Of course, every time the two met, Pei Jin would never be missing.

When the time was right, Jia Xiuyun mentioned to Wu Tianzhong his desire to open an academy.With the help of Pei Jin, he has been recognized by the government.If you can get the approval of the emperor, master and master, and name the academy, it will be famous far and wide from the day the academy is completed.Of course, Jia Xiuyun does not need the Taifu to teach in person, but only borrows his name, just like the honorary principal in a modern school.In addition to having full-time teachers to teach, the college will also hire officials from the Imperial College and officials who have passed the imperial examination to give lectures, so that the gold-medal teachers will not be afraid to attract those rich families who have money but cannot enter the Imperial College to study.Every year, the profits from the club will be used for donations, one part will be given to the court, and the other part will be used on the people.

Wu Tianzhong appreciated Jia Xiuyun's suggestion very much. After he visited the academy that Jia Xiuyun had already broken ground, he finally agreed to go home to persuade his grandfather.

Jia Xiuyun was a little worried as he sent Wu Tianzhong away.Turning to look at Pei Jin: "Do you think this can be done?"

"For the benefit of the students all over the world, it will naturally succeed." Pei Jin smiled, and there seemed to be some lingering worry between his brows.

Jia Xiuyun patted Pei Jin on the shoulder, holding back until now to explain what happened next. "Don't worry, when the academy recoups its cost and asks me to earn a hundred thousand or eighty thousand, I will let go and donate the academy Wutaste to the imperial court. I don't want to make a big tree to attract attention. I have my life to make money but not my life to spend it."

Pei Jin looked at him coldly, without saying a word.

Jia Xiuyun shivered at the sight, shrank his neck in horror and asked him what happened.
