The Legend of the Long Room in the Red Mansion

Fortunately, Ning Shan didn't know about the big mess that the silly father made, so the silly father still stayed happily in the Ning family and pampered him.As for the fact that the concubine's younger sister will go to the draft three years later, the silly father and his wife are happy to see it succeed. It just so happens that Jia Yuanchun, the second wife, was demoted. Therefore, the silly father sternly praised Yingchun girl who just started trying to be a housekeeper, and also rewarded many things.Ning Shan responded with neither support nor objection to this. It is true that he needs his concubine to take care of the house for him, but it is only a stopgap measure. Choose a qualified headed mistress to hire back; and the fact that the concubine's sister is well married will indeed help him, but Ning Shan doesn't expect to climb up through nepotism. But, as for whether they can be mutually beneficial in the future, that's something for later, so let's not consider it for the time being.Adding trouble to the Jia family's second room was just following the silly father's wishes. He didn't pay attention to the entire Jia family, let alone a mere second room.Only the silly father would hold his breath and insist on breaking up with them, and the silly father has a job to do, so it's good if he doesn't come to cause trouble for him.That's why Ning Shan indulged the silly father, supported him, and let him go out to play tricks on the tiger.

The silly father's nonsense in front of the Supreme Emperor turned the Rongguo Mansion upside down.Jia Wang's imperial order was clearly taken away, and she could no longer be the head of the house. This position had to be given to her niece, Xiao Jia Wang, who was also Ning Shan's sister-in-law. She was Jia Lian's wife. I also followed my aunt in the loan business, and suddenly saw that the royal family blamed her, and the good concubine was demoted as soon as she said it, and was finally frightened, crying and telling Jia Lian about her participation in the loan.Jia Lian was immediately turned upside down by anger. Although he is a dude, he still has a boundary in his mind and understands the basic laws. What's more, he has done business that will affect future generations. His mother-in-law has been doing it for three or four years. No wonder he got married Up to now, there is only one daughter, but no son.

Jia Lian had a good idea in his head, and saw the second room fell into the clouds under the attack of this crime, so he didn't dare to delay immediately, and took his wife and daughter to Ning Shan's house for help under the pretext of paying his respects to his father.

Ning Shan gave Jia Lian's daughter to Jia She to play with, and she took Jia Lian to the study to educate her: "Since the higher authorities have put all the blame on Da Jia Wang, you can take the opportunity to get rid of it together. Just don't do it again." Ning Shan purposely found fault to vent her anger on the silly father, how could she help smooth it out?Even if it is to help Xiao Jia Wang, he has no such obligation.

Jia Lian still knew the shame in his heart, and always felt that throwing the blame was not a good thing, not to mention that he was still grateful to Da Jia Wang, and always felt that he was raised by his second wife, not that irresponsible father and greedy and mean Raised by stepmother.After listening to Jia Lian's explanation, Ning Shan didn't know whether to praise Jia Lian for being kind, or to criticize Jia Amnesty for being irresponsible, but he did know some things.

"Do you know why you are Lian's second master?" Ning Shan raised her eyes and asked lightly.

Jia Lian was stunned for a moment before replying: "It is said that the eldest brother is originally a twin? The elder brother left in the family died early, but after all, he has been listed in the genealogy, so I am the second master."

Ning Shan enlightened: "Then you think it's fine, why did the uncle die young? Don't think it's because the twins are unknown, or I'm not in good health, I've always been fine."

Jia Lian is not stupid after all, this enlightenment, and Ning Shan's previous words of telling him to blame Jia Wang without hesitation, immediately turned red: "But Second Aunt, no, what did Jia Wang do?"

Ning Shan pushed [-]: "I don't know what, you said that. All I know is that we are both twins, and I have been living well. But after your mother passed away, you were raised by the second room I've grown up too." What he said was the truth, but he didn't care how Jia Lian understood it.However, judging from Da Jia Wang's viciousness of profiteering and exploitation, she may not be unable to do this matter.However, after so many years, she really did it, and there is no evidence.

Jia Lian's eyes were so red that he couldn't even look in the right direction of the back hall where Xiao Jia Wang was taken by Yingchun: "I have been a thief for all these years, have I become my mother?" Tearing, with a look of regret.

Seeing this, Ning Shan also felt that she was being cruel, so she hurriedly made amends: "You can't say that, after all, we don't have evidence, it's just random guessing." This guessing was the first time I saw Jia She, He yelled after he was drunk, although Jia She always complained that Jia Shishi was biased and the second wife was vicious, but when it came to the truth, he couldn't find any evidence, and even this speculation might not be reliable.

However, Jia Lian seemed to be convinced at once. Ning Shan speculated that this unlucky brother was just trying to find a place to shirk the pain and depression that he had not had a mother for many years and his father could not be relied on. It seemed that this would make him feel I am not so pitiful, but someone loves me.The ability to deceive oneself and others is no less than Jia She, which shows that father and son have inherited each other.Jia She also deceived himself in this way in the early years, thinking that as long as he gave up what Jia Shishi wanted, he would be loved like Jia Zheng. However, after waiting for so many years, Jia Shishi did not show any kindness towards him. The more he stepped on his head and felt complacent, he became discouraged.Ning Shan didn't know if it was a good thing for Jia Lian to have fantasies about Jia Amnesty's Rumu, but it was not a bad thing to let him guard against the second room, so as to avoid being dragged down by that family in the future, and she was reluctant to deal with it, but ran to He's making trouble here.

Ning Shan sent Jia Lian, who seemed to be a little crazy, to Jia Amnesty's courtyard to pick up her mother-in-law and daughter, but she saw Jia Lian's eyes were red, and she knelt down at Jia Amnesty with a "plop", and kowtowed hard several times. He yelled "Dad" in a crying voice.Jia Amnesty was really taken aback, he was teasing his granddaughter, coaxing her to feed him a mouthful of snacks, all of it was in his throat, he couldn't swallow it, he couldn't spit it out, he choked so much that he beat his chest and feet, tears glistened in his eyes.Seeing this, Jia Lian became more imaginative and couldn't stop.Ning Shan rubbed her nose, always felt that she seemed to be doing a little too much and was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong, she could only blame Jia Lian for being too imaginative, and Jia Amnesty for cooperating too well.

To be honest, it's been a while since I took over the silly father. This one really doesn't care about the matter, and the wife and children are all left behind. Occasionally, when I think of it, I mainly reprimand him, and call me here for help. With a few words of warning, I usually only focus on tinkering with my pile of calligraphy, painting and antiques in the study.It is said that at first he liked to hang out with concubines and maidservants, but after living here, the maidservants are all the children of the Ning family, and Jia Amnesty didn't bring any of his aunts with him, so I don't know if he didn't remember it, or he was worried about it after all. The son's family can't be too presumptuous, anyway, Ning Shan didn't see him eager to look at calligraphy, painting and antiques to that maid.What's more, when I first met the silly father and listened to his drunken talk after drinking, Ning Shan knew that a lot of gossip outside was not credible. Dirty water, at least Jia Amnesty, who lives under Ning Shan's nose, is very peaceful. He never causes trouble or adds trouble. Although he spends a lot of money, he pays for it himself. Ning Shan also pays him some filial piety on a monthly basis. , All the pension money that should be given is also given, but the amount is far from enough for Jia She to go to Liulichang to buy a pair of calligraphy and paintings, but I have never seen him complain about it, it is really easier to support than imagined.

Ning Shan couldn't figure it out, how could such a well-behaved old man be treated like that?What's more, although Jia She can't play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is tired of poetry and poetry, he is good at criticizing. Ning Shan accidentally discovered that her concubine Yingchun is good at playing chess, and she called her to play a few games on the day of rest. It really is very extraordinary, even though he still can't beat Ning Shan, it always pushes him into a critical situation.I saw it for Jia Amnesty during a replay, and commented on a few rounds, and it was indeed very detailed and in place.His eyesight in calligraphy and painting has never been wrong. Half of the calligraphy and paintings in Ning Shan's study room were selected by Jia She, and they are all genuine works by famous artists. One pair was even seen by Ning Shan in her previous life. I don't know whose family Jia She came from. Amoy exchange out.As for Qin, most of his reputation in the flower building is due to the oirans. Those oirans are all serious and learned, and being able to make friends with Jia Amnesty shows that this person is really a little ink, otherwise his eyes are higher than the top and he pays attention to reputation. The oirans don't need to sell too much face to a third-rate general in a second-rate mansion that is about to decline.

Although Ning Shan was ready to support Jia She for nothing, wouldn't it be better if he could bring other added value.Ever since she discovered Jia She's talent in Jinshi antiques, Ning Shan encouraged him a lot, asking him to find more famous products to make a name for him, so that he could take advantage of the opportunity to break into the antique circle.Gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times are not talking about. Nowadays, those who can afford gold and stone are the rich and powerful families. Ordinary people have no money to buy these things, but there are always many unscrupulous children who sell them for money. Well, Jia Amnesty bought a lot of things from those people at low prices, but he has a good eye and never misses, which is why he has accumulated today.

Jia Amnesty had no interest in the upper-class circles in the capital, but after Ning Shan's analysis, he was very active in doing so, which would severely embarrass Jia Zheng and make him look ashamed.He is very enthusiastic about everything that can make Jia Zheng and his family uncomfortable. Since Ning Shan finished speaking, Jia Amnesty has greatly reduced the time spent in the study, and instead went to the streets when he was free. Lane's shopping treasures not only enriched her pockets, but also made some contacts by the way, which is what Ning Shan lacks now.After staying in the border town for more than ten years, he returned to hand over military power in order to protect himself. Now he can't get in touch with the old army too much, and he doesn't know much about the upper circles in the capital. As a high-ranking official of calligraphy and painting, he can also take this opportunity to inquire about the details of the former dynasty and the harem, and to understand and speculate on the emperor's mind is a must-have skill for aristocratic families in all dynasties. Without the backing of these qualifications and skills, what do they rely on to pass on for hundreds of generations? .

The second master of the Rongguo Mansion, Jia Zheng, has been boasted for many years. He has always regarded himself as a dignified person. He has always thought that he is the representative of the Rongguo Mansion. He is the only one who is worthy to go out and socialize with many celebrities. When the big man talked about his incompetent elder brother, he was quite appreciative in his words, and he was immediately hit hard.He felt that his family's luck had not been very good since Jia She's eldest son, who had been adopted long ago, came back, and he hated Ning Shan for hindering his official career.Later, Jia Lian dragged him back. Since he attacked the noble, he has become reserved. Many things are not assigned by him like before, and he has inexplicably paid attention to official positions. Really bad.Jia Zheng was very disdainful of this, and taught him not to try to donate an official to become an official, but Jia Lian stopped him with a sentence: "The second uncle also got into the official by relying on the old man's benevolence, why can't my nephew?"
