Mrs. Xing of the Red Chamber

With a firm face, he said:

"Then we will definitely study hard in the future, and after taking the exam and becoming an official, we will be able to let father and the others come back."

Jia Zong also nodded and said:

"Yes, we will definitely study hard in the future, and after we are admitted to Jinshi as soon as possible, we can let father and the others come back."

Seeing how sensible her two younger brothers, who were never very close, were so sensible, even the dull Jia Yingchun and sister Qiao were moved with red eyes.

Li Mo nodded calmly and encouraged:

"Then you all have to work hard in the future, just don't make excuses and go play again by yourself."

Li Moda didn't want to wait for Heng'an and the others to come out of the imperial examination before going north. If he waited until then, after so many years, whether Jia Amnesty would still be alive would be a problem.

The life in exile in the north is not as simple as those inexperienced people think. If no one takes care of them, they may die at any time.

After talking to them and encouraging them to take good care of themselves, Li Mo went back to his room to rest. After thinking about it, when he had time tomorrow, he should go to Xue Baochai and the others as soon as possible to see if they could help him. How did you find a place to live in the future?

Although Li Mo has been busy shopping outside for the past two or three days to get acquainted with the situation and went to see Jia Amnesty, he can find some signs of the Xue family selling their shop and mansion these days.

This Rongguo Mansion has been ransacked, and the Xue family has not heard of any major incidents recently, so there must be a reason behind these actions of the Xue family.

Since it wasn't due to external reasons such as being bullied and repaying debts, it was the Xue family's own reasons, and there was something in the Xue family that Mrs. Xue and the others wanted to achieve at all costs.

Apart from Xue Pan's matter, Li Mo really couldn't think of anything else. No wonder Mrs. Xue's complexion has improved a lot in the past two days. Maybe it's because she found Xue Pan's solution!

Now that the Xue family is also in a hurry to raise money, the matter of finding a house for the Jia family should also be accelerated. If the Xue family sells this mansion, wouldn't everyone have nowhere to live?

Li Mo didn't think that the Xue family would continue to kindly take in people like the Jia family after spending all their wealth to save Xue Pan.

Anyway, the Xue family didn't owe him anything, and Li Mo was not the kind of person who would just hang on because someone else took him in with good intentions and the other party had money.

After Li Mo tidied himself up, he had been busy for a long time yesterday in order to prepare something for Jia She and the others, and he didn't have a good rest. Even though Li Mo had practiced the nameless kung fu, he could stay up for several days and nights without any problem.

But Li Mo couldn't bear it, and felt that he was tired in his heart. If he didn't sleep well for a day, he felt that something was wrong. It's better to rest early, and then go to other things after getting up tomorrow!

After thinking about it for a while, Li Mo practiced three weekly exercises while lying on the bed, and after a while, he began to breathe very steadily on the bed. Obviously, Li Mo who was lying on the bed had already fallen asleep.

Xue Baochai and Mrs. Xue, who came back to Xue's house, asked the servants how the property they ordered to be sold was done, and they knew that there were already several buyers, and they should be able to negotiate in a few days. After Cheng got the cash, Mrs. Xue and the others felt relieved.

Xue Baochai and Mrs. Xue were sitting in the living room. After letting the servants go down, they thought of the Jia family who still lived in Xue's house.

Xue Baochai couldn't help frowning, and said:

"Since there is already news about the properties sold by our Xue family, then I = we should pack up our things quickly these few days and move out of the mansion. What about the Jia family who live in the mansion now?"

Mrs. Xue was full of thoughts that when she got the money, she would go to help Xue Pan to clear up the relationship, so as to save her precious son's life, how could she have the mood to take care of those in Jia's family?

"Since the mansion is about to be sold, even we have to move, not to mention those of the Jia family, didn't you say that they have asked you to help find a house to live in? You can let someone find it within two days. , tell them, let them move out together!"

This is always my in-law's family, and we don't know how long we will live together in the future. For the sake of my own future, Xue Baochai dare not just drive everyone out like Mrs. Xue said so casually.

However, after the Xue family sold all these properties, the family business was considered gone. The small courtyard left at the end could not accommodate the people of the Jia family. My brother lived thereafter.

Even Xue Baochai herself will move out to live with the Jia family at that time. After all, it is related to her own vital interests. Even if Xue Baochai's heart has always been biased towards her natal family, she has to worry about her husband's family.

After thinking about it, he said:

"Then I'll try to get people to find a place to live as quickly as possible, even if it's rented. If you think the house is not suitable in the future, you can take a look at it slowly and find a suitable house."

Mrs. Xue has no objection to these, but she thinks that the family will not have much money in the future, and this daughter of hers will always live with those of the Jia family, and she doesn't know how much money she will be exploited by the Jia family.

Mrs. Xue looked at Xue Baochai, and said earnestly:

"Baochai, even if you want to live with the Jia family all the time in the future, you should be more careful with the money in your own hands, and don't be fooled by others just talking about the money in your hands. In the past, the rest of your life was still long, if you didn't have money, you don't know how difficult life would be!"

Speaking of these, with Xue Baochai's intelligence, how could he not understand what his mother was trying to say?

"Mother, don't worry, my daughter knows these things well. If it's money that shouldn't be spent or someone who has nothing to do with it, she won't take out the money in her hand."

This daughter of mine has always been prudent and smarter than herself. After reminding her and seeing her understand what he means, Mrs. Xue can feel relieved.

"Well, as long as you are clear about these points that need attention, you don't need mother and I to talk nonsense."

On the second day, Li Mo went to find Xue Baochai and reminded him that he wanted to move out as soon as possible, but Xue Baochai was worried that he would not have a chance to talk about it with the Jia family.

Seeing that Li Mo took the initiative to talk about it, it was easier for her to speak, and said:

"Eldest lady, I have ordered my servants to go out to inquire about it two days ago, and there may be some news coming back today and tomorrow, don't worry!"

Li Mo said gratefully:

"I'm bothering Baochai and your mother these days. When we find a suitable house and we move there, we can invite your mother to have a gathering. It's just that you don't look very good these days, but is there anything bothering you?"

Xue Baochai hasn't had much contact with Li Mo, and doesn't know her very well. She has always heard her aunt and mother-in-law despise her in a very contemptuous tone. .

But judging from these days, this eldest lady is a very non-existent person. If she didn't take the initiative to speak out, everyone would generally ignore her existence.

This is a person who is a bit difficult to understand, but even if the eldest wife does not have a strong sense of existence, I don't see her suffering any disadvantages. As long as it is about her own interests, she will become shrewd.

But looking at the fate of these people in Rongguo Mansion, in the previous generation, it seemed that except for the eldest wife who didn't care about anything, the others didn't end well.

If it weren't for the fact that the house was ransacked shortly after he married into the Rongguo Mansion, after a long time, even Xue Baochai couldn't guarantee that he would be fine.

In the past, everyone said that the eldest wife was stupid, but according to Xue Baochai, she is really a very smart person. If she had fought for some housekeeping rights in the past, she might be imprisoned with the second wife and the others now. Coming out of the prison with nothing to do?

It seems that even if this eldest wife can't get along well, she can't easily offend her. Thinking of this, Xue Baochai pretended to be in trouble and said:

"Eldest lady, you also know that the business of our Xue family is not getting better day by day. The uncle's house and our Rongguo Mansion have both collapsed, and there is no one backing. With only us weak girls left, isn't it impossible to keep the family business?"

Because Xue Pan's matter had not yet been settled, Xue Baochai didn't dare to reveal it for a while when the matter was not yet finalized, for fear of making this matter unnecessary.

But the fact that Xue's family sold their property can't be hidden from others, so they thought of using this excuse to explain it face-to-face. Anyway, this is also a fact, so it's up to others not to believe it.

Li Mo knew that this was just Xue Baochai's prevarication, but it had nothing to do with Li Mo, as long as it was okay on the surface.
