The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

It is said that Daiyu sister and brother were discussing in the small study to figure out why Lin Hai was assassinated. The more they thought about it, the more they felt it was reasonable.If you are ready, invite the master in.

After waiting for a long time, Lin Hai finally walked slowly.Daiyu couldn't help crying again when she saw him, Lin Hai immediately realized that she was pretending for nothing, and stared at the two of them: "Who told your sister?"

Jia Huan immediately pointed at Jia Cong: "He!"

Jia Cong chuckled flatteringly: "Sister, are you smart? We're trying to help you find someone behind the scenes."

Lin Hai waved his hand and said, "It has nothing to do with your children."

Jia Cong hurriedly said, "Uncle, listen to our guess first, is there any truth?" Because he winked at Daiyu.

Daiyu stopped crying, and slowly told her father what they had just guessed.

Lin Hai couldn't help clapping the case after hearing this: "I was thinking about this just now, but I didn't think about it. Yu'er, you are really a female Zhuge."

Jia Cong clapped his hands and said, "Did I say my sister is smart~~"

Lin Hai couldn't help raising his feet and circling around the wall of the room, thinking incessantly, "Yes, that must be the case! I've been away from Yangzhou for a long time without incident, but halfway through, I started to encounter thieves." It’s stolen. When I came to Beijing to meet with the sage, I didn’t hear anything.” Jia Cong couldn’t help winking at Jia Huan—this posture was exactly the same as Daiyu’s just now, and it was obvious that they were father and daughter. "Everyone who is well-informed knows that I am here to submit my resignation letter. I don't think I am looking for my position. I just don't want me to go back."

Daiyu hurriedly said: "Then can you find an official in the capital and not go back?"

Lin Hai waved his hand and said, "I'm afraid it won't work. If you don't talk about it, you have to go back for another term. Besides," he snorted softly, "I don't want me, Mr. Lin, to know, but I want to know!"

Daiyu was in a hurry: "Tai Shigong said that the son of a daughter can't sit down. I know it's extremely dangerous, so I have to try it myself! Father doesn't think about his daughter?" She cried again as she spoke.

Lin Hai hurriedly argued: "Yu'er, people have already called at your door, how can you allow them to get what they want? The so-called knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, but going to the mountains with tigers, your father, a dignified second-rank official of the imperial court, can they scare them?"

Jia Cong rolled his eyes fiercely at the side: Thanks to this old man who was born in ancient times, he doesn't know how to coax girls at all.Seeing that Lin Daiyu's tears were like a waterfall again, she had no choice but to ask for help: "It's not a problem to hide in the middle of the capital. There is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days. He has set his sights on my uncle, even with such a ruthless hand. The two of us It's not going to die. Only by getting rid of this root can we be truly safe."

Lin Hai nodded again and again: "Very, very, very! That's exactly what I mean, and Cong'er said it for me."

Daiyu stared at her father intentionally, but her eyes were red like rabbits, without any power.Yin said: "Since this is the case, father must wait for the people behind the scenes to be uprooted before he can go back. Otherwise, I will not follow."

Lin Hai frowned and said, "If I don't go back, how will I know who it is?"

Only then did Daiyu remember to ask him: "Didn't dad go to interrogate the assassin? Didn't he say anything?"

Lin Hai smiled wryly and said, "I told you, he told you everything he knew, but he is just an assassin and knows very little." Then he told what Hu Zhong just said and his own speculation.

Daiyu gritted her teeth and scolded, "What a ungrateful and dead slave!"

However, Jia Cong felt that this was human nature, but this person's eyes were high and his abilities were low, and he didn't even want his life to take shortcuts, so he couldn't help but twitched his lips.

Pian Lin Hai saw it, and asked, "What about Cong'er?"

Jia Cong said casually: "As long as you want to find such a person, you can find it anywhere."

“How come you see?”

"Earlier, I heard from my third sister that if things are uneven, there will be noise." This was what he heard from Jia Baoyu in his previous life, but now he had to fall on Tanchun's head first. "Nowadays, people in this world are born divided into superiors and inferiors; but God does not divide people when they are smart. There are smart and stupid people between superiors and inferiors. Meeting superiors is better than inferiors. It’s okay to be smart, but there is always the opposite. There are fewer superiors and more inferiors, so every household can find servants who are smarter than the superior.” He spread his hands, “If things are not fair, they will cry, right? Not fair Those with an honest temper will bear it. But God does not distinguish between superiors and subordinates when giving temper to others. There are always servants who are smarter than the Master and have a dishonest temper and refuse to bear it. What's more, the world is used to looking up Look down on others.” According to a survey in a previous life, most people felt that they were overqualified. , if you want to look for it, which of these big families with hundreds of servants can't find one?"

Lin Hai listened for a long time, and couldn't help clapping his hands: "You're right!" He quickly asked, "Who told you this?"

"That..." Jia Cong smirked guiltily, "Hey..."

But Lin Hai followed up and asked: "It's true, which gentleman said it? Lin has a heart to see."

Jia Cong curled his lips, thinking that this is something your apprentice and I thought up, do you believe it?I had to say: "I'm afraid...it won't be easy to meet."

Lin Hai hurriedly asked, "Aren't you in the capital?"

Lin Daiyu hurriedly tugged at her father's sleeve, leaned over and whispered, "I'm afraid it's a woman."

Lin Hai was stunned, and couldn't help saying, "What a pity!"

Jia Cong wanted him to misunderstand, clapping his hands together: "Look! This is also a kind of injustice. I, Mr. Lin, am so talented. If I am a man, I am afraid that I will not be able to go on stage to pay homage to the minister? However, women are not allowed to be officials in this world."

Lin Hai also became depressed for a while, and sighed: "It's really a pity for Yu'er..."

Jia Huan also said beside him: "There is also the third sister, who is also very smart."

Jia Cong looked at it, clicked to the end, and quickly changed the topic: "Therefore, if there is no Hu Zhong, I am afraid there will be Wu Zhong and Mo Zhong."

Lin Hai nodded, stroked his beard and said: "It makes sense, so it seems that I have managed a family before." The children who said that all laughed quietly.He frowned again and said, "Now we can only wait for Yangzhou to investigate."

Jia Cong thought for a while: "Since that Hu Zhong was doing business with the people behind the scenes, he stabbed his uncle with a dagger in exchange for 1 taels of silver. Now that he has stabbed the dagger and got the silver, their business is considered complete?"

Lin Hai didn't understand: "What does Cong'er mean?"

Jia Cong said: "If he is purely doing business with someone, then he is not the other party's person."

Lin Haidao: "No."

Jia Cong said: "Last time my father gave me a bank note of ten taels of silver. I read it over and over many times, and I memorized every line on it." In fact, he was curious. Looking back, I saw silver bills, the legendary magic weapon for making money. "This Hu Zhong is smart, he must have a good memory, and he has been poor for half of his life. He has been given bank notes for a long time, and he will carefully examine each of them many times. I don't know which bank the bank notes are from. The ticket number? Is it possible to remember the patterns, marks, and letters clearly? Such a large amount of money, an ordinary small bank, would not be able to give it away casually. I am afraid that it will be issued by a big bank. The treasurers of the big bank are all shrewd people, maybe I remember some clues, and it’s unknown if my uncle can find out the source from them.”

After he finished speaking, Lin Hai couldn't help clapping the case: "Wonderful!" He praised several times, "It's hard for you to think about it!"

Jia Cong glanced at Jia Huan triumphantly, and Jia Huan said helplessly to Daiyu, "Look at my sister, how happy he is."

Daiyu pursed her lips and nodded, "It's really a useful idea." She was also very proud in her heart - she actually taught this kid.

Lin Hai hurriedly got up: "I'll ask Hu Zhong!"

Jia Huan asked, "Will he help us think?"

Lin Hai smiled and said, "I don't need you children to worry about this." He clapped his hands and left.

Jia Cong suddenly thought of Yao'er, and called after him, "Where's brother Yao'er?"

Lin Hai said from afar, "You're fighting Yang Song from behind."

Jia Huan and Jia Cong immediately understood that Yang Song was the "quite capable guard" who bullied the little thug together with Yao Er just now, and couldn't sit still with winking eyebrows.

Daiyu looked at the two of them and sighed: "Come on, come on, I never expected you to help me with anything, go and play."

He rushed out with two "Awws" and ran to the backyard. Sure enough, he saw Yao'er and the guard were discussing each other.

At the other end, Lin Hai sent someone to bring Hu Zhong to the hall again, and recounted what Jia Cong said just now with a smile, and asked him, "If you think about it, you must remember which bank the bank note is from? Maybe the patterns, marks, and inscriptions can help the painter draw it?" Hu Zhong was dumbfounded.

Lin Hainai said seriously: "Have you ever heard that you can ride a crane down to Yangzhou with a hundred thousand guan in your waist?"

Hu Zhong shook his head.

Lin Haiyin stood up and stroked his beard with his hands behind his back, and paced in front of the hall: "This is a famous sentence written by Xu Ning of the Tang Dynasty, which intends to describe the prosperity of Huaiyang. It's not difficult. Since ancient times, rich merchants and banks have been closely linked. Thinking about it, your bank note must have been issued by a big bank, and the people behind the scenes, even if they are not wealthy merchants in Huaiyang, are probably inseparable. Hu Zhong, I can think of bank notes. The people behind the scenes can also think of the ticket. It may not be safe for your daughter-in-law to exchange the silver ticket for your life."

Hu Zhong's expression that had never moved after the self-stabbing was finally moved.

Lin Hai looked at him and said, "You can't exchange all the ten-thousand taels of silver bills for your daughter-in-law?" Hu Zhong shuddered.Lin Hai knew that he had hit his sore spot, and said, "The business between you and the person behind the scenes has been settled, and I don't want your money. If you don't help me find him, I and your family can feel at ease." .”

Hu Zhong suddenly calmed down again, shook his head and said, "I don't know how to read."

But Lin Hai knew that he was a person who could read the accounts, and he could read all the words on the bank notes, so Yuu probably wouldn't say it.After a little thought, although this person is conceited to be a bit clever, he is narrow-minded and shallow.Since you don't even want your life and conscience for the sake of your son's well-being, you must take your child very seriously.Does he really worry about his wife?I'm afraid that most of those banknotes are not in the hands of his wife, but are distributed among the three sons.Yin said: "Those three boys in your family, the oldest is fourteen, and the half-old is not young. They can't control themselves. If they go to a rich place and have money in their hands, if they don't keep it all, they will use it to buy food and clothing. It's not known if he is playing, or even going to the place of fireworks to catch a new one. It must be known that gambling houses and brothels are the fastest news in the world. I am afraid that he spent a silver note yesterday, and someone will come to his door today. "

Hu Zhong's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth hard.

Lin Hai nodded and said, "Think about it, I still say that I don't want your money." Because he waved someone to take him down, he ordered Mo to eat less.

As he sat down to sort out his thoughts for the meeting, someone reported outside that the virtuous king had arrived, so he hurriedly got up and went out to greet him.

After arriving at the door, Situ Pan strode over and held his hand: "Is Ru Hai startled?"

Lin Haidao: "I was never shocked, but I wanted to laugh at the moment when I should have been the most surprised." Yin joined hands and sat down inside, and told him in detail about today's assassination.

When he heard that it was Jia Huan who took a pack of snacks to block the poisonous dagger for him, Situ Pan couldn't help clapping his hands: "Good boy!"

Lin Hai laughed and said, "Let him say mung bean cake and walnut cake, but I wasn't scared."

Situ Pan also laughed: "There are not many serious adults in the Jia family who are useful, but the children are all lucky."

Lin Haiyin told the story of Hu Zhongzhi's interrogation and reasoned. He attributed all the children's words to his own name, because they were still too young, Daiyu especially the girl, so don't draw Situ Pan's attention.

Situ Pan clapped his hands repeatedly, and sighed, "Ruhai, how about you come to be Minister of the Ministry of Punishments in the future?"

Lin Hai quickly waved his hands and said, "Forget it, I'd rather go to the Imperial Academy to rest."

Situ Pan only sighed regretfully.

The two of them discussed the meeting again. It was time for Jia Cong and the others to go back to their residence, so they came to say goodbye. Just as Situ Pan was still there, they all rushed up to salute.

Situ Pante praised Jia Huan, saying that he was "quick, steady and filial", and Jia Huan's ears were red.

Jia Cong hurriedly said: "Brother Xian Wang, Uncle Lin, let's discuss this matter, we must not let our adults know about this matter today."

Lin Hai was surprised: "But why? It's not a good thing, and I didn't want to publicize it."

Jia Cong snorted and said, "We lied to our family when we came to look for you to study every day. We all said that we went to the Escort Bureau to learn martial arts, and the second aunt was not happy to go to study with my brother. If this matter is revealed today, it will be exposed. .”

Where did Lin Hai want to get this?After a long while, the striker said angrily, "How can this be reasonable!"

Situ Pan said: "I originally thought that I would go to your house to praise you, but if you don't keep it, it's a bad thing with good intentions." Because he asked, "Didn't you say you came to our house to play?"

Jia Cong curled his lips and said, "A lot of things have happened in the family. It's too earth-shattering to go to your house. I don't dare to attract attention at this moment. It's better to calm down."

Situ Pan glanced at him: "I heard that Mr. She is checking the accounts?"

Jia Cong said: "It is said that the second aunt has corrupted a lot of public funds. By the way," he frowned and looked at Situ Pan, "Does our family really owe your brother a lot of money?"

Situ Pan nodded seriously: "I really owe him a lot of money."

Jia Cong shook his head like a grown-up, and sighed: "It's better to persuade your brother, don't lend money to others in the future, everyone will be unhappy. Look at my old man's dark face, just like others owe him money." It’s like money. Borrowing it is easy and paying it back hurts!”

Situ Pan nodded seriously again: "You are right, I don't think he will lend money to others in the future."

Lin Hai was laughing beside him.
