[Red House] A beautiful girl welcomes the spring

Third Sister You is not Lin Daiyu. Lin Daiyu is humble and kind. When she finds words that hurt other people’s weakness, she feels wronged first and doesn’t know how to argue. She is not Jia Yan either. When Jia Amnesty didn't get up here before, Jia Yan used it to suppress those servants who had grown rich eyes and high hands for many years, but now they are used to it, and both Jia Mu and Jia Amnesty know that she has a bright future in the future. , so he indulged her more and more, making her a little bit unable to let go.Not to mention, Jia Yan's current identity is here, and if she is offended, she just needs to raise her head and stare at the other party, unless it is an elder, otherwise, the other party must apologize.

Third Sister You originally came from a small family, and she has a hot temper. Like Xue Baochai, she lives in Rongguo Mansion with others, and she cannot tolerate others looking down on her.

If it was Jia Yanlin Daiyu, she was either a serious lady in the Rongguo Mansion, or she was a cousin and Mrs. Xing's heart and soul. Of course, Third Sister You would not dare to offend her.

But what is Xue Baochai?

In the eyes of Third Sister You, she is just like her, relying on her relatives in this mansion, so she lives here as a sojourn. Who is nobler than whom?

Not to mention that it was just an unintentional mistake, but this Xue Baochai actually picked on her, shook her face, and scolded her.

From Sanjie You's point of view, she is not doing well. Her own mother You Laoniang, her elder sister You Erjie, Mrs. Xing Jiayan and the two Fengyi female officials can say it, but Xue Baochai can't say it.

So at the moment, she put her face aside, and said with a bit of yin and yang: "Miss Bao said that, isn't this mocking me for not having this blessing and no brothers? Poor my mother married twice and didn't give birth to a brother. Miss Bao also has a brother with the same mother, so my mother doesn't have to bear the bad reputation of remarrying. Say it, don't you?"

But Xue Baochai was so angry that even the handkerchief was crumpled.

Jia Yan quickly said: "Okay, okay, sister Bao, you also know. Sister You San's temper, even her own sister also has a headache, otherwise, she would not let her come to me. By the way, come here Man, bring a pen and paper."

Jia Yan turned to Tanchun and said, "The third younger sister also copied a copy back. Among other things, I gave it to Baoyu in front of the old lady and the second lady, and let the old lady and the second lady know how good you are."

Tanchun quickly thanked him, then took his seat and sat down.

When I heard about it just now, Tanchun planned to make a copy too.It's just that Xue Baochai said that at the time, and she thought she could only borrow it from Jia Yanlin Daiyu in private.

Since Jia Yan said so, she naturally didn't need to think of another way.He didn't refuse at the moment, thanked him, and sat down immediately.

Then Jia Yan said to Xue Baochai, "Sister Bao, let's talk in the room over there."

Although Jia Yan said that Third Sister You had a bad temper, she was helping Third Sister You by asking someone to give Tanchun a pen and paper.

How can a person not bow his head under the eaves?

No matter how strong Xue Baochai was, she didn't dare to talk back to Jia Yan, who is now the county lord, so she had to follow Jia Yan to the big study opposite.

Xue Baochai wondered in his heart: It seems that the second sister didn't see the bank notes in the interlayer?Could it be that someone swallowed it privately?

Thinking of this, Xue Baochai felt more and more uncomfortable.

4 taels of silver is not a small amount for the current Xue family. If it is cheaper, I don’t know which one...

Thinking about it this way, Xue Baochai's intestines turned green with regret.

Knowing this, she personally sent the bank note to Jia Yan.

When Xue Baochai was thinking wildly, he saw an extra stack of papers in front of him, and looked carefully, what was it if it wasn't the bank notes she had stuffed in the interlayer of the soil instrument?

Seeing clearly what was in front of him, Xue Baochai quickly raised his head to look at Jia Yan.

Jia Yan said: "Sister Bao, when I was promoted to Junjun, your family already gave me a set of jewelry, plus 5000 taels of silver. I dare not accept the 4 taels."

Xue Baochai quickly apologized and said with a smile: "Second sister, you are being polite. Last time I heard that the family still owed the treasury a deficit of nearly 20 yuan, so I wanted to help out a little bit. It is also our heart. 4 taels of silver is not much. , However, we can only afford so much money at the moment, if we can allow some time..."

Jia Yan raised her hand, stopped Xue Baochai's words, and said, "Sister Bao, I'm afraid you have misunderstood me. I don't have many other things about me, but I am more proud than others. I have always used money wisely. , Take it with a degree. Knowing that Sister Bao’s family is not short of money, so I accepted the 5000 taels of silver and jewelry for congratulations. But the 4 taels of silver are different, but I dare not take it. Sister Bao Just take it back."

When Xue Baochai heard this, she panicked: "Second Sister, what does this mean? No, I mean, I don't quite understand, so I ask Second Sister to give me some pointers."

Jia Yan said: "Sister Bao, although it is our duty as sons and daughters to share our father's worries, I can't get involved in such outside matters. And as early as October last year, our family's deficit I just paid it back. I know Sister Bao’s intentions are good, but please take back this money. If Sister Bao doesn’t take it back, then I won’t dare to let Sister Bao in again.”

Xue Baochai heard that she had no choice but to stuff the thick one-knife bill into her purse.

In the flower hall, Third Sister You saw from a distance that Xue Baochai, who was following Jia Yan along the veranda, looked very preoccupied, so she thought that Jia Yan had taught Xue Baochai a lesson, and she was secretly happy.

Tanchun prevented Mrs. Wang from giving Xue Baochai face, but as the younger sister of the second sister You, the third sister You knew very well that Mrs. Jia Shexing did not deal with Mrs. Wang. Xue Baochai said she was Wang Xifeng's cousin, but Wang Xifeng herself It's hard to protect yourself, let alone others?

Not to mention, among wives and concubines, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.Since her elder sister You Erjie became Jia Lian's concubine, she was doomed to confront Xue Baochai.Therefore, the more shameless Xue Baochai was, the happier she was.

Therefore, seeing that Xue Baochai was about to come into the house, she did not greet Xue Baochai, but only pulled Lin Daiyu to talk: "Oh, Miss Lin, you don't know. There are two sets of jewelry for each wife and Junjun, it is said that at least this amount is needed."

Tan Chun didn't want to tell Third Sister You about this, but she was shocked when she saw Third Sister You compare six, and said, "Sister You, you said, it must be 6000 taels, right?"

Although Tanchun really wanted to say 600 taels, she knew very well that in their Jia family, 600 taels was totally out of reach.

"It's not 6000 taels. The mother next to Sister Yan said that the four sets of jewelry were not worth 6000 taels. I heard that at this time last year, the fifth grandmother on the back porch came in to beg his wife for her son's future. But who would have thought that it would be After working hard for a year, they have a net income of 7 to [-] taels of silver!"

Although Tanchun is a girl, she rarely uses money, but this does not mean that she does not know what 6 taels of silver means.

When Lin Daiyu first came to Jia's house that year, Jia pardoned Jia Yan's words and gave up the two taels of silver per month for makeup. Now she only has the monthly money of two taels of silver.

Not to mention, now that she is living in Mrs. Wang's West Courtyard instead of Jia Mu's house, the cost has increased even more.Every month, her hands are tight, and it will take several months to save five hundred dollars.

How is it like Jia Yan, in addition to the monthly money of two taels of silver, there is also a quarterly entertainment fee of 3000 taels that Jia's mother asked, as well as Jia Amnesty's subsidies from time to time, and filial piety from everywhere.Just like Jia Yun's filial piety, the four sets of 6000 taels of silver jewelry, even if Madam Xing and Jia Yan share the two sets, the value of Jia Yan's two sets will not be less than 2000 taels.

During the Chinese New Year this year, Jia Yun paid special filial piety to Mrs. Xing and Jia Yan's jewellery. Tanchun knew about it, but she didn't know that Jia Yun had only been working for Jia Yan for a year. He also got 5 to [-] taels of silver, even if he bought a gift to honor Mrs. Xing Jia Yan, he still has at least [-] taels of silver left!

Even though she was extremely jealous of Jia Yan before, now that she heard Third Sister You say this, Tanchun admired this cousin from the bottom of her heart: "Second Sister is naturally excellent. I just don't know what you said last time about the shortfall. Is the mansion still up?"

Jia Yan happened to come in, and when he heard what Tanchun said, he said, "It's not back."

Tanchun said, "Really?"

Jia Yan said: "Yes. Last year, my father took Yan's family to toss for half a year, and produced sweet and fragrant wine, and then repaid the deficit."

Tanchun was surprised and said: "The Yan family? But Aunt Yan's family?"

"It's not her family. My father also said that if it wasn't for Yan's family, it would have taken three or four years to repay the deficit. Amitabha! We can breathe a sigh of relief after paying back the more than one hundred thousand taels of silver. "

Third Sister You said happily: "Doesn't that mean that brother-in-law's promotion is expected?"

Jia Yan smiled and said: "You can say that. But the evaluation of the Ministry of Officials is still the main thing. It is the rule of the Ministry of Officials to evaluate once a year and promote every three years."

Third Sister You said: "That's amazing. Others at my brother-in-law's age are still reading the Five Classics frequently in front of the window, but my brother-in-law is already an official of the fifth rank. If he is promoted every three years, maybe he will be promoted after two years." Nian is a senior official of the fourth rank!"

Jia Yan also laughed when he said it: "Then I will lend you a good word."

Third Sister You laughed and said, "Your Majesty should say Tongxi."
