[Red House] A beautiful girl welcomes the spring

Jia Jing is the patriarch of the Jia clan, and it is for the matter of visiting relatives at the villa. Of course, Jia Yan will not refuse his request to see him. However, since she wants to see Jia Jing, it is natural that she must be accompanied by Jia Mu and Mrs. Xing.

The main hall of Rongxi Hall had long been hung with bead curtains, and Jia Yan was sitting behind the bead curtains, accompanied by Mrs. Youshi, Mrs. Jia's mother Xing, while Jia Jing and Jia Zhen knelt outside the door.

Jia Yan frowned when she saw the drawings of the Grand View Garden designed by the familiar yet unfamiliar Shan Ziye:

"Do you have the current drawings of our Ningrong Second Mansion?"

Jia Yan's numerology skills are excellent, and the drawing has already marked the distance. She only needs to do a little mental calculation, and she knows that the total area of ​​the garden is as high as 56 square meters. Not to mention the cost, the area alone is enough to make people To impeach her is extravagant and absurd.

You Shi hurriedly said: "Go back to your mother, yes."

From the day when Jia Yan received the edict of the appointment, Jia Yan was called the empress, or concubine Shu, the second young lady, and the second young lady in the Jia family's mouth. No one called these titles anymore.

Immediately, someone pulled away the blueprint of Ningrong Second Mansion and presented it in front of Jia Yan.

Jia Yan compared the two drawings and said, "Bring a pen and a ruler."

Youshi immediately asked the maid to bring a large book case, and then presented the two-color paint of indigo and cinnabar.

Jia Yan compared the drawings of the current appearance of the Ningrong Second Mansion, and used indigo to draw the road from the east courtyard of Rongxi Hall to Lixiangyuan on the design drawing.

In the original book, Zhou Rui's family sent palace flowers along this path.On the east side of this narrow road is Jia Amnesty's East Courtyard, and the courtyard where Jia Yan lives now is a courtyard in the East Courtyard.Past the East Courtyard, across the private alley is the Huifang Garden of Ningguo Mansion, on the west side of the East Courtyard, across this narrow road is the current back garden of Rongguo Mansion.

After drawing this narrow path, Jia Yan drew on the drawing, including the future Yihong Courtyard, Bodhidharma Courtyard, Quicui Temple and other courtyard scenes, as long as they were on the east side of the narrow path, all of them were drawn with a Chinese ink brush, and then Use a blue pen to draw three circles on Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Daoxiang Village, and Tubi Mountain Villa, and circle the concave crystal pavilion corresponding to Tubi Mountain Villa, and use the |arrow|head to move to the west side. dotted line.

Among them, Tubi Mountain Villa and Aujing Pavilion, because of their good names, Jia Yan wrote them directly.

This stroke of hers directly reduced the area of ​​the family-speaking villa by more than half.

Jia Yan said: "First, I have lived in this East Courtyard for six or seven years, and I just want to stay for a while, so there is no need to demolish it. I lived in the East Courtyard before the garden was repaired. Wait for the garden I'll move after it's fixed."

"Yes."

Outside the door, Jia Jing and Jia Zhen's father and son responded respectfully.

Jia Zhen just flattered the horse's leg, but Jia Jing's heart was like a bright mirror.

Jia Jing knew very well that according to the original plan, not only the area of ​​the garden, but the cost of construction, it would be able to wipe out the family fortune of the Jia family.With Jia Yan's stroke, what was crossed out was not half of the palace area, but more than half of the construction cost!

"Secondly, I like to play with the farming. The palace knows about it, so the Humble Garden is indispensable. In addition, I really like the bamboo forest in the blueprint, and I am planning to build a two-story building in the bamboo forest. It is used for collection of books. The name is Tingtao Pavilion. This Tubi Villa is left to the fourth sister. In the future, the fourth sister will accompany me to live in the yard, overlooking the scenery of the whole yard. I remember the fourth sister is Those who love to paint and paint, live in a higher place and are cheaper. The Oujing Pavilion below is for Sister Lin. She is going to observe filial piety and mourn, so she lives with me to avoid being bumped into."

When Jia Mu heard this, she frowned immediately: "Ma'am, Miss Lin has to keep her filial piety, I'm afraid she will run into Madam."

But Jia Yan said: "Sister Lin's father is also my aunt. I protect Sister Lin very much. Can my aunt and aunt blame me under the nine springs? It's settled like this. By the way, the Concave Crystal Pavilion can be built with two floors or It is a small three-story building, with girls and servants living below, and sister Lin's bedroom and study above. I can live here when my relatives and sisters come to accompany me occasionally.”

Jia Jing quickly agreed.

Jia Yan continued: "This garden does not need precious wood such as red sandalwood, huanghuali, chicken wing wood, etc., but camphor wood can be used to prevent insects and termites, and it is easy to maintain. I remember that sister Lin's home has a camphor forest of more than 20 acres. , when the time comes, I will ask Sister Lin how much camphor wood is about [-] or [-] years old. The only copy of the calligraphy and painting is not allowed to be moved. My aunt has done her best for the country. I know the position of the Yangzhou salt censor and the chaos of the salt administration. My aunt has been in charge of the salt administration for the imperial court for five or six years. Now only With such a little flesh and blood, our family is raising Sister Lin, not so much because we are Sister Lin’s natal family, but rather because we are taking care of the orphans of loyal officials for the court. So, if you let me know that you have embezzled things from the Lin family, I will definitely be annoyed .do you understand?"

According to the original book, excluding the property left to the Lin family, the property that Lin Daiyu finally brought to the Jia family should be three or two million taels of silver.

Jia Yan didn't know whether it was more than 200 million or more than 300 million.However, these camphor woods cost five to sixty thousand taels of silver when they are dead, and there is still a lot of water in it, and the shipping fee is included.

With Jia Yan as a person, at most she would only ask Lin Daiyu for these camphor logs, and only if she ordered these camphor logs first, would she have a reason not to allow others to move Lin Daiyu's other property.

Jia Mu, Mrs. Xing, You Shi, and Jia Zhen outside were all shocked.

They finally know now that Jia Yan knows their idea of ​​moving Lin Daiyu's property, and Jia Yan does not approve of such behavior.

As for Jia Jing, the corners of his mouth hooked up.

Jia Jing raised his head and said: "Ma'am, what about the display in the garden?"

"You don't need to pursue luxury or antiques, it's better to be comfortable and practical. By the way, since the West Courtyard is also within the scope of demolition, let the third sister and the fourth sister squeeze together to avoid being bumped into. "

No matter what, Tanchun is also Jia Yan's cousin. If Tanchun is bullied and loses his reputation, it will also affect Jia Yan.

Furthermore, Jia Yan also knew that Tanchun was motivated, in order to prevent Tanchun from being used by others because of Mrs. Wang, it is better for her to win over Tanchun early.

As long as Tanchun comes to her place, when Tanchun grows up in the future and needs to discuss relatives, it can also be said that Tanchun grew up with Jia Yan and was brought up by Madam Xing, the Madam Hou and court lady.

In this way, it will not affect Tanchun's future, but will help.Tanchun is a shrewd person, and if he uses it well, it is not a bad thing for Jia Yan.

Jia Yan handed down the revised drawing, and let Jia Mu, Mrs. Xing, You Shi and others read it, and then passed it to Jia Jing.

After Jia Jing and Jia Zhen's father and son had also seen the blueprint, Jia Yan said, "Uncle Jing, take a look. According to my calculation, how much money can this garden save?"

There was a smile in Jia Jing's voice, and said:

"If you go back to your mother, you can save almost 100 million taels of silver."

Jia Yan sneered and said, "How much do our two families have now?! How much did you plan to spend on this garden? Will everyone stop eating in the future? Forget it, the money saved will add a little money to the family. The [-]-acre sacrifice field is where the family studies will start. By the way, Uncle Jing, now you are the only one in our Jia family who came from the Jinshi Department. I won’t talk nonsense with you. This family study matter, It is your responsibility. So, please clean up the ethnology. The gentleman who should be hired should be hired, and the boy who should be punished should be punished. If the ethnology is still like this, all the people who come out will be trash. Why should I recommend them to Wansui? Gentlemen with six arts, catch them all! Get away from the sour Confucians who only know what they are! Wansui recruits officials to work for the court, not to spend money to support them to travel around the mountains and rivers Eating, painting, and having fun!"

"In addition, this Rongxi Hall is regulated by the Duke of the Kingdom. Since my father is a Marquis, I will change it first! First change the Rongxi Hall, and then build this palace!"
