[Red Mansions] Why does Xiaoye want to whitewash

Jia Lian didn't know at this time that the old lady in the Rongguo Mansion wanted to come up with something. Since he took office in Changzhi County, he has never been greedy for ink or squandered the county's money, so the remaining money is more, which is naturally strange. It's enough to have a good idea.

I built roads for each village before, and helped export some special products of each village. Although the profit was not large, it also gave the people an extra way to make money.

Later, I learned that there used to be a small port on the river under the jurisdiction of Changzhi County, but it was abandoned for various reasons. I felt it was a pity, so I planned to mobilize the strong laborers in the county to help rebuild it, and it could also be consolidated. Get off the embankment.

It's just that the weather has been going well in the past few years, and it is impossible for a small county magistrate of him to ask the court to allocate funds, and it is impossible for him to pay for it out of his own pocket, so he mobilized the people. For good waterwheels, those who have waterwheels will dig a few more wells. In short, although they don't get much money, they don't suffer.

Then, in mid-September, when the appointment of the capital was made, Jia Lian had exhausted all the money from the county government office. When he suddenly learned that he was going back to Beijing again, the thought that flashed through his mind was: County government office With such a financial situation, it should be a good handover...

But with Jia Lian still a little bit overwhelmed, Wang Xifeng was very excited when he learned that he was going back to Beijing, and immediately prepared to pack up and leave.Jia Lian was speechless, "We still have to wait for the new county magistrate to come and take over, what are you in such a hurry for?"

"You don't want to go home, I still want to!

Wang Xifeng still remembered what Jia Lian was talking about a few days ago. When the economy in Changzhi County got better and better, he might be able to move around and play in another place.

She didn't say anything at that time, but in fact, she was not interested in Jia Lian's talking about playing.It's fun to live outside, but so what?Wang Xifeng still likes the prosperity of the capital, so she was very happy with Jia Lian's letter of appointment.

But looking at the Fourth Translation Hall written on it, Wang Xifeng asked a little puzzled: "What department is the Fourth Translation Hall?"

Jia Lian glanced down casually, then shook his head, "How do I know?"

But their husband and wife are ignorant, don't they have well-informed people around them?Jia Lian took the letter of appointment and went to consult the old doctor and Mr. Fu.But the two knew it just by hearing their names, and Mr. Fu explained to Jia Lian: "This is a place to receive tributes from neighboring countries and translate language books. It stands to reason that they should all have talents in this field. I didn't expect you The family actually found such an errand for you."

When Jia Lian heard this, isn't this the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?But as far as he knows, Honglu Temple should be in charge of diplomacy. I really haven't heard much about the Four Translation Hall...

It's just different from Mr. Fu's gentle attitude. The old doctor was not satisfied with Jia Lian's sudden appointment. He regarded Jia Lian as his junior, so he naturally hoped that Jia Lian would be well.

In a place like the Fourth Translation Hall, Jia Lian basically occupied a space when he went in. Leisure is indeed leisure, but it is too wasteful.And although Jia Lian is usually cynical, in fact, he seems to have some talents and ideas, and he has actually done something. Now that he is suddenly transferred, wouldn't it be in vain?

So he said directly with a bit of displeasure on his face: "Although you can't see your political achievements now, what you do will definitely be effective after a few years. Now that the Rongguo Mansion suddenly took you back, it's not for nothing. Is there someone behind?"

At that time, when the appointment was delivered, there was also a letter from the Rongguo Mansion. Jia Lian already knew why he was suddenly transferred back.He didn't do it for political achievements, but because he had to do something when he came to this place. Anyway, he just wanted to let himself have a clear conscience. As for whether the people behind him would take advantage of it, it really didn't matter.

What really made him more concerned was that his grandmother once again manipulated him directly without his consent. This was even more uncomfortable for Jia Lian. Even if he is quite interested in this translation hall now, it cannot offset this discomfort. ...

It's just that these emotions don't need to be endured by others, so Jia Lian just laughed without saying a word.

After returning to the room, I told Wang Xifeng what the Fourth Translation Hall was. Wang Xifeng didn't really care about the department. She was concerned about another matter. The letter from Big Brother Zhu said that Xue's family was also planning to go to Beijing. I hope they We can take care of each other on the road together.

"Cousin said that we will go to Beijing with the Xue family, do you want to get in touch?"

Jia Lian shrugged, "Our time has not yet been set, wait for the Xue family to contact us."

That's fine, Wang Xifeng saw that Jia Lian wasn't very interested, so she immediately put aside the matter and just packed up her things cheerfully.

The children were still a little strange when they saw it, so Wang Xifeng told them that they were going back to the capital.However, Daiyu and Lin Ke were not very happy, they became depressed uncontrollably.

Sister Qiao sensitively noticed Lin Ke's strange emotions, and after class, she dragged him to a place where no one was around, pinched her small waist, blocked Lin Ke in a corner, and asked him, "Who bullied you?" Already? Tell me!"

"..." Lin Ke glanced at the maids and sisters not far away. Probably she was the only one who thought she would not be discovered by Lian's second sister-in-law. Thinking that she would be beaten again in a while, she pretended to be mature and sighed, saying: "The second sister-in-law Lian said that you are not allowed to do this, and you will not be able to get married."

Sister Qiao waved her hand, which seemed to reprimand Fang Qiu, "My father said it! When I grow up, he will definitely arrange me out!"

After finishing speaking, she patted Lin Ke, who was half a head smaller than her, like a big sister, and continued: "Everyone in the yamen listens to me! Whoever bullies you, I will bring someone back to you! Speak out with confidence!"

"...The eldest of our family is Lian's second sister-in-law."

When Sister Qiao heard this, she pursed her lips, "Why are you so annoying, okay! I don't deny it either, just tell me if I ask you!"

Lin Ke lowered his head and said in frustration, "You guys are going back to Beijing, what will my sister and I do?"

"Of course we're going together?" Sister Qiao said as a matter of course, "Isn't my aunt unable to take care of you?"

Lin Ke was still a little disappointed and said, "But I also miss my father..."

"Then..." Sister Qiao may feel a little out of line, and she doesn't know what to do for a while, because if she is asked to leave her parents, she will definitely be sad.

The little head turned around and couldn't figure it out, but if I didn't understand, I went to my parents, and Sister Qiao turned around and went to them for help.

Lin Ke didn't expect to get any comfort from Sister Qiao, but she turned around and ran away without saying a word, which made him subconsciously chase after her.

The maids who were guarding the little master from afar suddenly saw Sister Qiao and Master Biao running up, they didn't know, so they were worried about where the two bumped into each other, so they also ran after them.

Wang Xifeng had just returned from the county government office at this time, and was sitting in the courtyard to enjoy the shade. Seeing them all running there, big and small, she immediately turned serious and said angrily, "Look at what you look like? When you return to Rongguo Mansion Are you so unruly? Do you want to be punished!"

The maids were naturally afraid of Second Mistress, so they immediately stood there not daring to move. Even Lin Ke gradually slowed down and walked over in a regular manner.

But sister Qiao didn't care about that much, and rushed directly to her mother.

And Wang Xifeng was almost thrown by her, Wang Wangtian said angrily: "You troublesome person! When will you be more stable!"

Sister Qiao didn't care, she hugged her mother's leg and asked directly: "Mother! Let's go back to the capital, what should Lin Ke do?"

"Call my cousin!"

The eldest sister is a few years older than Lin Ke and still calls her "cousin" every time, but it happens that the elder sister has never been called by her name in a very unruly manner.

Wang Xifeng tapped her daughter's forehead twice with her index finger, and really wanted to correct her strange accent, but she just remembered that this girl didn't know how to speak official Chinese, or she did it on purpose, thinking that she would definitely change after being laughed at in Beijing. I didn't say anything about it.

Instead, he tore the fat girl off his lap, and said helplessly, "Your father and your aunt will discuss the matter of Daiyu and Lin Ke, and you children don't need to worry about it!"

When Wang Xifeng fooled her well and stopped Qiao Jie who wanted to take Lin Ke away, the two of them both felt a little headache when they saw Qiao leaving with her lips pouting angrily.

"Ke'er, although you are her cousin, you are two months younger than Sister Qiao! Don't get too used to her!"

Lin Ke looked up at Lian's second sister-in-law, and seriously retorted: "I am Qiao's elder, so I must love her."

The little doll who was only a few years old seriously said that he was the "elder" of another little doll. Wang Xifeng's heart sank in an instant, and she couldn't stop looking at Lin Ke and said, "Sister-in-law, if she has a son like our Ke'er, it's really a big deal." Satisfied! Why are you so cute!"

Wang Xifeng liked him, and immediately picked him up. Lin Ke blushed, and was reluctant to get out of Lian's second sister-in-law's arms, so she could only shyly stay in her arms.

After hugging for a while, Wang Xifeng said to him: "Although sometimes you are not so happy, the elders will try their best to consider you. But although you are young, if you have your own ideas, you can tell us Yes, don't hold it in your heart."

Lin Ke was silent for a while, but still said honestly, "Ke'er just can't bear to part with you and her father, so why don't they leave?"

Wang Xifeng has no way to guarantee that life and death are inevitable, and it is impossible to change the established path for someone, and what Daiyu and Lin Ke will do is still up to their father.

But thinking of the letter from the Rongguo Mansion, the grandmother was eagerly expecting and exhorting them to take the two children back home, and considering that my uncle is alone now, it must still be inconvenient to take care of them.Wang Xifeng felt that it was very possible that Daiyu and her brother would still follow her to Beijing.
