[Red Mansions] Why does Xiaoye want to whitewash

Except for Rongguo Mansion, all the properties are almost equivalent to the average share between the two houses. Except for Jia Zhu who thinks the share is too much, the second house naturally has no objection.

And Jia Lian didn't care, so he didn't say anything.

Only Jia Amnesty was the most dissatisfied, but he also knew that he was not as strong as Jia Lian in speaking to his mother now, and it was useless for him to object alone, so he just said, "Yingchun's marriage has been decided. If you pay for it, Yingchun will also have to go out on business!"

Mother Jia didn't expect her son to open his mouth with such a small amount of money, and at the same time he said angrily, "Old woman, come out! Is it okay?"

Jia Amnesty still said shamelessly, "Mother, if you are willing to give, that is your love for Yingchun, and you must give what is due to the public."

The old lady's chest was heaving, Jia Zheng was a filial man, and immediately said: "Mother, don't be angry, this is what you should do, just come from the public."

"Hypocrisy." Jia She muttered in a low voice, and then said, "Since the second brother is so sensible, it's easy to say, when are you going to move out of Rongxi Hall?"

"This..." Jia Zheng looked at his mother, ready to wait for her order.

However, Jia Lian was not planning to move into Rongxi Hall, so he said, "Grandson feels that he is used to living in the current place, and has no plans to move for the time being."

Jia Zhu glanced gratefully at Jia Lian who had rescued her from the siege, then bowed to her grandmother and said, "When I get back, my grandson will let Wan'er clean it up, and I'll pour out the yard in a few days."

Jia Amnesty was not tired of Jia Zhu, glanced at Jia Lian, whispered that he was "playing against the tune", and then pretended to be generous: "My son is also used to living in the east, so why not move mother to Rongxi Hall, the second brother Move to the west to live."

Mother Jia looked at it, and it was unexpected that Jia Amnesty did not show more dissatisfaction with the property distribution ratio, so now he asked the second room to move out of Rongxi Hall, she pondered for a moment and then made a decision: "Then move out." .”

However, the division of property in Rongguo Mansion ended without incident, and the others left one after another, but Jia's mother left Jia Lian behind and said to him alone: ​​"I have to think about the future of the Jia family. You don't have a son-in-law now. When I divided the birth, I tended to give part to Pearl..."

Jia Lian thought it was because of the fairness between the two families, but he didn't expect it to be because of the heirs.Although he could understand the characteristics of this era, and did not have any opinion on the division of property, but at this time the old lady clearly expressed that her daughter was not as important as a boy, and he was unwilling to accept it.

Then he looked at the grandmother very seriously and said, "You don't need to explain to your grandson, you care about things like passing on the family line, but your grandson doesn't care, I love the three sisters like jewels, no worse than boys. "

The old lady moved her lips, but she didn't explain how she felt sorry for the girls at home, anyone could see it.But this doesn't mean that she can ignore the inheritance of Rongguo Mansion like Jia Lian.

After Jia Lian went back, Wang Xifeng asked what the old lady had said. Jia Lian didn't tell her the truth because she had something on her mind. Injustice, probably trying to appease us."

Wang Xifeng was holding their property list now, shaking her head, and said, "Forget it, Second Uncle still has Baoyu at home, and I was surprised that Grandma didn't share it with him."

"Don't forget that grandma has private property." Of course, this is the old lady's savings for many years, and he will not covet it. As for Wang Xifeng... Jia Lian smiled teasingly: "When did our second grandma Lian become so generous?" ?”

Wang Xifeng shook the list in her hand, glanced sideways at Jia Lian, and snorted, "Such a large amount of property has already been in my hands, you can be careful with your skin in the future!"

"Hey!" Jia Lian came behind her with a nod and bowed her head when she heard this, and while reaching out to massage her shoulders, she said flatteringly, "Second Mistress Lian is so rich, do I need to mention my monthly money?"

Wang Xifeng patted Jia Lian's hand, touched her neck, and waited for him to press it over before saying, "After the division of production, each of you has to spend your own money. When I just came back, sister-in-law Zhu said, let me see if there is any shortage." People will pick and choose in the mansion, and then we will have to pay the monthly salary of the servants who serve in the grandmother's yard."

"It's up to you to discuss." Jia Lian had no objection at all.

When there was no division of property, everything was paid out on business, so it was inevitable that there was a mentality of taking advantage of it. Now that everyone spends it, Mrs. Wang naturally feels distressed to spend such a large amount of money for the monthly payment of her servants. Li Wan went to discuss with Wang Xifeng about diverting some of the servants to the big house.

Wang Xifeng thought about it, she and Jia Lian now have more and more property, although not all the people in the mansion are easy to use, but the servants who have sold their lives are always easier to deal with, and they don't need to spend money to get another from Ren Yazi. purchase.

Of course, it must be easier for new buyers to adjust.Teach some, it's just that these people in the mansion have some friendship after all, and they are relatively mature helpers. As for some things that are difficult to discipline, she thinks she can handle them well.

So when Jia Mu and the second room finished changing the yard, Wang Xifeng and Li Wan split up some of the servants, and then re-arranged, which was smoother than that of the west side. Anyway, for the big house, apart from money and more people Some haven't changed much either.

And the Xue family started tidying up their house from the next year. When Erfang and Jiamu exchanged yards, they ignored Jiamu and Mrs. Wang's persuasion, and moved out of Rongguo Mansion directly.

Jia Lian and Jia Zhu later found out when they were drinking with Xue Pan that it was Xue Baochai who insisted on moving out of Rongguo Mansion. The two guessed that it was because of their contradictions, saying that they wanted to get married but backtracking, which hurt the little girl's self-esteem .

Sighing, Jia Zhu said to Xue Pan: "It's not easy for the two women, aunt and cousin. Cousin, you have to think more about them."

Xue Pan was the most impatient of being preached by others. He felt a little disappointed when he heard what his cousin said at this time, but because he lived in Jia's house for such a long time, he agreed perfunctorily.

Seeing Xue Pan's lazy attitude, Jia Zhu frowned and wanted to continue, but Jia Lian quickly stopped her and said with a smile, "Let's get together with my cousins ​​today, let's not talk about those spoilers."

Jia Zhu had no choice but to stop talking. The atmosphere was a bit worse than before, and in the end it could only be regarded as an unhappy breakup.

Jia Zhu and the others left, and said angrily, "If it wasn't for my cousin, why should I meddle in his business? I don't have to drag Auntie and Baochai down!"

"Whatever you sow, you will reap the fruits. It is also a fact that my aunt loves you."

Jia Zhu sighed again after hearing this, thinking of her son, said: "Lan'er was also spoiled by her mother and his mother, so she must be more strictly restrained in the future, so as not to become a dandy and mislead others and herself."

"Lan'er is already very sensible!" Besides, noble sons and brothers are all pampered, Jia Lian really felt that Jia Zhu was sometimes too strict, so he persuaded: "If you really want Lan'er to be less squeamish, let these children Add half an hour of martial arts class every day, beating and beating are also good."

Jia Zhu nodded thoughtfully, and said, "I suffered from poor health before, so I should exercise."

"Also, if you're worried about Xue Pan, I'll talk to my friend later, and I'll find some excuses to teach him a lesson in the future. Paying attention to propriety will always improve your memory."

"Will it work?" Jia Zhu was a little skeptical, but also a little unbearable, "Although Xue Pan is a little muddled, his temper is still simple, so don't teach him too much..."

"Look, you still say that your aunt is doting, don't you have the same mentality?" Jia Lian gave Jia Zhu a funny look, tapped the head of the fan on his neck twice and continued, "If he doesn't remember to eat or not to beat, then he will eat." Beat it up twice more, don't worry, you will be careful."

Jia Zhu still knew Jia Lian. Since he promised, he knew there would be no problem, so he nodded and said, "Then pay more attention, and don't let him get into trouble."

"That's easy to say. I also know Xue Pan's drinking and meat friends. I just need to let them pay attention when they go out."

So looking back, Jia Lian specially invited no less than Xue Pan's good relationship to eat and drink. By the way, please ask for this matter. I have to say that luckily he did something in advance and really avoided it. Xue Pan made a big mistake in the future.

At this time, Jia Lian helped Jia Zhu arrange to teach his cousin a lesson, and went to Zhang's house. Just before Xue's house moved, they also packed up their house and moved in.

At that time, Jia Lian only stopped for a while because of something to do, and he didn't find time to pass since then.Next year, their brothers will participate in Chunwei, so it is necessary for Jia Lian to take care of them.

The last time I came here, I didn’t look at it carefully, so this time I came to Zhang’s house, Zhang Xiujin and Zhang Xiuqi took Jia Lian around the garden, but this season there is no green at all, and Jia Lian is not particularly able to Appreciate this kind of graceful and delicate with a sense of desolation.

Zhang Xiujin also noticed it, so he walked through the garden and took Jia Lian to the study room. This is a place shared by the two brothers. It is full of various books, and they are well preserved. Every shelf is full.

Jia Lian walked over from the front and tentatively took out two books to read, but just holding them in his hand and looking at the title, he felt the weight he couldn't bear, and immediately put them back.

"Have you read all of these?" Jia Lian pointed at the books on the bookshelf, swung his fingers left and right, and looked at the two brothers curiously.

Zhang Xiujin smiled and said: "Most of them have been read, but most of them are books needed for the imperial examination, and the rest are just for relaxation."

Jia Lian cupped his hands and said in admiration: "You scholars, just for your patience and perseverance, I really respect you."
