[Red Chamber] Mrs. Lin replaced her

Looking at Jia She who was sitting at the table with his face blushing, Jia Zi kicked Jia She amusingly: "I said, you were kicked out of the Rongguo Mansion just now, and you even lost your ancestral title. Don't you think you should look a little sad?"

Jia Amnesty put one foot on the chair casually, raised the back of his hand and wiped his mouth, and said with a smile: "I'm very sad, so I found something to divert my attention. Otherwise, I Wouldn't it be more uncomfortable? Do you think my stomach will be comfortable if I eat this way?" Jia She said, hiccupping uncontrollably, and looked at Jia Zi with a smile on his face.

Seeing Jia Amnesty's heartless appearance, Jia Zi cooperated with a look of sudden realization, with a mocking smile on his face: "It turns out that what you are looking for is to eat and drink. Don't say it, this kind of relieves sadness." The sad way is really special. I thought that what you were looking for was another maid who wanted to be pulled into the room as a roommate!" In fact, when he was in Rongqing Hall, Jiazi had already It can be seen: Jia She is not really interested in Yuanyang, he just uses the matter of Yuanyang as an excuse to separate the family.

"Don't mention this soon," Jia She waved his hand, with a displeased expression on his face: "That blind maid who doesn't know how to flatter her, even kept saying that she would rather be a sister-in-law than be a roommate for me. It also made me feel like murdering and arsoning, digging up her ancestral grave, really frustrating. Hmph, I don’t even look at what kind of person I am, his master..."

Jia Zi and Lin Hai looked at each other, and listened with a smile to Jia She's bragging about how handsome, handsome and suave he was, fascinated by how many little maids in the mansion, how many house maids in his yard were fascinated, Mesmerized.It wasn't until Jia She's boasting came to an end that Jia Zi supported his chin and asked jokingly, "By the way, you don't really like that mandarin duck, do you?"

"She's so beautiful." Jia She pinched his waist, looking disgusted: "I'm just blind, I don't have a woman in this life, and I won't fall in love with her. You don't even look at her pockmarked face." , really sleeping on her bed, I'm still afraid of having nightmares in the middle of the night."

Jia Zi carefully recalled the figure and appearance of the mandarin duck.If you ignore the scattered freckles on the face of the goose egg, in fact, the appearance and figure of the mandarin duck are still good.After all, based on Jia Mu's usual disposition, if the mandarin ducks had no beauty at all, she would not be able to keep people by her side to serve her personally: for example, the maid named Xi Ren next to Jia Baoyu is an obvious one. example.

Although at the beginning, Jia's mother gave Jia Baoyu the Xiren who was originally her maidservant on the grounds that Jia Baoyu had no suitable person to serve her.However, Jia Zi is extremely suspicious that the reason why Mother Jia gave Xi Ren to Jia Baoyu is that Xi Ren is too mediocre in appearance, has a distasteful personality, and does not meet her aesthetic standards at all.And giving Xiren to Jia Baoyu, on the one hand, can maintain his image of benevolence and kindness, and perfectly cover up the real reason why he transferred Xiren away; Giving it to Jia Baoyu can also show her care and attention to Jia Baoyu.

At the same time, because Xiren looks too mediocre, without any outstanding features, she doesn't have to worry about Jia Baoyu being seduced by Xiren—Jia Baoyu grew up surrounded and doted on by girls, and by his side There are so many wonderful girls.From Jia Baoyu's point of view, it is impossible to fall in love with Xiren's slaves who want to have no appearance, no figure, no taste, and no interest.Therefore, Jia Mu did not hesitate to kick the Xiren, whom she did not like, to Jia Baoyu—of course, the Xiren did not disappoint Jia Mu.She took good care of Jia Baoyu, and Jia Baoyu trusted her very much.

However, mandarin ducks and Xiren are completely different.Yuanyang is the number one celebrity in front of Jiamu, she is Jiamu's right-hand man, holds the key to Jiamu's private treasury, has a list of items in Jiamu's private treasury, and knows all the wicked things Jiamu has done in the past few years .Therefore, it is naturally impossible for Jia Mu to give the mandarin duck to Jia She: otherwise, she would have personally handed over her private treasury and handle to Jia She.

It was precisely because Jia Amnesty was aware of this that he asked Mother Jia for a mandarin duck to be his housemate, so that his plan to separate from the Rongguo Mansion could be successfully completed.

However, Jia Mu's refusal was in Jia Amnesty's expectation. But Yuanyang rejected him without hesitation, and cut his ambition in public, saying that he would rather become a nun than be a housemate for Jia She.This made Jia She deeply feel that his face was damaged.Therefore, when mandarin ducks were mentioned, Jia She hated him so much that his teeth itch.

"Don't make it so ugly," Jiazi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Actually, that mandarin duck looks pretty good, but it just has a few freckles on its face, so it's not as pockmarked as you said. !" Jiazi turned to Lin Hai, shook Lin Hai's arm, and said teasingly, "Tell me, am I right? Is that mandarin duck pretty good-looking?"

Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: "What mandarin ducks, what does this matter have to do with me?" Lin Hai and Jia's mother rarely met each other, so it was even more impossible to pay attention to what the maid next to Jia's mother looked like. .

"It's the big maid next to my aunt!" Jiazi thought for a while, and then further explained: "By the way, it's the one who was kneeling in the middle of the main hall of Rongqing Hall, the one with disheveled hair, and the one with an aggrieved face. The one holding the scissors as if about to commit suicide..." Seeing that Lin Hai still hadn't reacted, Jia Zi hurriedly explained further to Lin Hai.

Lin Hai shook his head and said honestly, "I didn't pay attention."

"Hee hee," Jia She said with a smirk on his face, "Azi, what do you want my brother-in-law to answer when you say that? Do you want him to admit that he saw other women in front of you? And comment on how other women look like?"

The separation of the family went very smoothly today, and Jia She is naturally in a very good mood: Although he gave up the title to Jia Zheng and left the Yerong Mansion, he has perfectly achieved his goal and successfully transferred the family to Jia Zheng. The treasury owed 100 million taels to Jia Zheng.

Thinking of Jia Zheng's unconcealable surprise and joy when he heard that he was going to hand over the title to him, Jia Amnesty secretly had some expectation in his heart: I really hope that the new emperor will give the order just after Jia Zheng inherited the title. To recover the money owed by the state treasury, see how good Jia Zheng's face will be then?

As long as he thought of Jia Zheng's ugly face at that time, Jia She would laugh three times, pour a pot of wine on the stove, and sing a little song to express his excitement and happiness.

However, now there is one thing that Jia She feels hesitant about: does he want to find someone to spread the word outside, saying that Jia Zheng forcibly snatched the ancestral title of the Rongguo Mansion from him?In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Jia Amnesty really wanted to do this, he really wanted to tear off Jia Zheng's hypocrisy and shamelessness in front of everyone in the capital.

"He dares?" Hearing Jia Amnesty's teasing words, Jia Jing immediately raised his eyebrows: "He wants to see others try?"

Jia Zi proudly raised his eyebrows at Lin Hai, with a look of "See, I have the support of my elder brother, if you dare to look at others, you will be miserable".

"You know," Lin Hai smiled and winked at Jia Zi, and said with a gentle smile, "I never look at other people." When Lin Hai was in Yangzhou as a salt inspector, in order to win over Lin Hai, many wealthy businessmen in Yangzhou They all sent beautiful women or singers to Lin Hai.However, Lin Hai never accepted those women, and sent them back without even looking at them.

"Hey," Jia She yelled and joked, "This is really sour. It's so cold..."

Jia Zi kicked Jia Amnesty's chair, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up: "You are cold, then do you want me to get you some thick quilts, just wrap you up and carry you back?" Jia Zi said There was a strong threat in her eyes, with the look of "as long as Jia She dares to nod, she will immediately go and bring all the quilts in the house, wrap Jia She into rice dumplings and carry them back": Lin Hai is sour, and he can only She said it herself, no one else can say it.

"No, no," Jia She quickly shook his head and waved his hands, with a flattering look, "I'm just joking. Azi, don't take it seriously."

After dinner in Ningguo Mansion, Jia Zi and Lin Hai returned home with their three children and Jia Xichun who was reluctant to part with Lin Daiyu.After the four children were settled, Jia Zi and Lin Hai had time to be alone.

"Say," Jia Zi lay on Lin Hai's body, pulled Lin Hai's skirt, and pretended to be threatening, "Is there something you didn't tell me?"

"What's the matter?" Lin Hai put one arm around Jiazi's waist and rested his other hand on the back of his head, with a very casual look: "What did I not tell you?"

Jiazi squeezed Lin Hai's chin: "You still want to lie to me? Amnesty is making a fuss about breaking up the family. Why did you guess the reason all of a sudden? Do you know any inside information?" At that time, Jia Zi felt that something was wrong: she didn't even guess the reason why Jia She suddenly wanted to split up, and she probably didn't guess it at the beginning when she saw Jia Jing's expression; but Lin Hai guessed it all at once. up.Jiazi thought about it, and felt that something was wrong: this should not only be the reason why Ningguo Mansion repaid the treasury owed money, there should be other reasons that she knows.

"I'll tell you about this later." Lin Hai quickly kissed Jia Zi on the lips, and then asked in puzzlement: "By the way, what happened today? Didn't you say it was the plan of pardon?" Do you want to separate? But when we arrived at Rongguo Mansion, what we heard was that She She wants to take in that maid named Yuanyang?" Lin Hai naturally couldn't understand that Mother Jia would not even want her own son because of a maid. Known approach: At least in Lin Hai's eyes, Jia's mother doesn't look like the kind of person who treats slaves as her own.

"What else could be going on?" Jia Zi casually fiddled with Lin Hai's skirt and yawned, "She used that girl. She knew in her heart that Yuanyang is the most important girl my aunt relies on." Huan, it is absolutely impossible for her to give him the mandarin duck. Therefore, She She took advantage of this matter, saying that she wanted to take the mandarin duck as a joint room, and thus the family was separated smoothly."

Lin Hai frowned slightly, and then reacted: "You mean, Amnesty pretended to accept that girl?" Lin Hai still didn't quite understand: Jia She's doing this was too convoluted, right?What if Mother Jia agrees to give him the mandarin duck?Didn't his plan fail completely?

"That's right." Jia Zi nodded lightly: "Yuanyang is Auntie's confidant, holding the key of Auntie's private treasury in her hand, so it is naturally impossible for Auntie to pardon her. Pardon just grasped this point However, with my aunt's consistent virtues," Jiazi touched his chin and said softly, "She should leave the matter to Yuanyang to decide for herself, and keep saying something like 'this matter is not related to her'. Your lifelong happiness, you should think about it yourself'. But in fact, Yuanyang dare to agree to try?"

Seeing Jiazi's serious appearance, as if she really saw what happened at the scene, Lin Hai squeezed Jiazi's face in a funny way, and kissed the corner of Jiazi's lips with a smile.

Jia Zi pushed Lin Hai's face away, and said in a strange way: "Besides, even though that mandarin duck is a servant, he has been waiting by my aunt's side all the time. His eyes are very high: it is impossible for him to look at She She." He is an old and unfavorable old man. By the way, do you know the four maids of Rongguo Mansion?"

"What four maids?"

There was a disdainful smile on the corner of Jiazi's mouth: "It's the mandarin duck next to Auntie, the Jin Chuan next to Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang..."

"Little Wang?" Lin Hai looked puzzled: "Isn't she already divorced by Lian'er? Why is her maid..." Lin Hai really didn't understand, Wang Xifeng had obviously been divorced by Jia Lian, so her maid How could she be regarded as the maid of the Rongguo Mansion?Could it be that Wang Xifeng's servants are still receiving the monthly money from Rongguo Mansion?

Jia Zi pouted: "I mean before she was divorced by Lian'er."

Lin Hai nodded and said with a smile, "I forgot. Go on, who else?"

"Ping'er next to Xiao Wang," Jia Zi said with a look of disgust, "there is Xiren next to Jia Baoyu. These four people are known as the four maids of the Rongguo Mansion, and their status in the mansion is aloof. His little masters, such as Yingchun, Tanchun, Jia Huan, Jia Cong, Jia Lan, etc., are much stronger. It can be said that they walk sideways in Rongguo Mansion. Other servants in the family do not treat Yingchun, Jia Lan, etc. Take it as one thing, but they dare not ignore the existence of the four of them. When the servants saw them, they called out one by one, Sister Yuanyang and Sister Pinger. Of course, the most important thing is that they dared to agree , looking like he forgot who he is."

Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, he never expected that the Rongguo Mansion had no rules to such an extent: the servants in the mansion had a higher status than the master.Even if Jia Yingchun, Jia Tanchun, Jia Huan, and Jia Cong are concubines, they are still the masters of the mansion; what's more, Jia Lan is the only son left by Jia Zhu, the eldest son of Jia Zheng, who belongs to Jia Zheng's family. Bearing grandson...

"Rongguo Mansion has always been like this." Seeing the doubts in Lin Hai's heart, Jia Zi bit Lin Hai's lips lightly, and explained: "The people who serve the elders have a higher status than the masters of the younger generation." Actually , Jiazi is very disdainful of such absurd rules of Rongguo Mansion: To exalt a slave's status higher than his master, let a slave trample his little master under his feet, does Rongguo Mansion have a lot of face?

"There are no rules." Lin Hai curled his lips, and concluded directly: "No wonder the old general Jia Daishan was famous in the past, and he was the number one celebrity around the emperor with his holy favor. But now it is only a short period of ten years. , the Rongguo Mansion has not been completed like this."

Jia Zi made a grimace, and then seemed to remember something, eye to eye with Lin Hai, nose to nose, stretched out his hands to hold Lin Hai's face, and asked softly, "Now, is it time for you to talk?"

Lin Hai kissed Jiazi's lips lightly without thinking, and said in a dazed way, "What did you say?"

"I'm telling you something serious." Jia Zi pushed Lin Hai's face away, put his hands on Lin Hai's shoulders, and slightly propped up his body: "You said before, about why you guessed right away. She wants to separate from Rongguo Mansion because he doesn't want to bear the money that Rongguo Mansion owes to the treasury, you will tell me."

Hearing what Jiazi said, Lin Hai couldn't help laughing: "According to what you said, She is like a conspirator who doesn't pay back his debts." Of course, from Lin Hai's point of view, Jia She's brain is really It's not enough to be a conspirator, at most it's a renegades.

"He is." Jiazi replied without thinking, then looked at Lin Hai and asked, "Can you tell me the truth this time?"

Lin Hai smiled, and gently stroked Jia Zi's cheek: "Do you know what idea the emperor came up with two days ago?"

"He's a demon again?" Jiazi blinked, his interest was obviously higher, and even his voice was a little excited: "Tell me, what is he doing again? ?” Obviously, Jia Zi was very interested in what Lin Hai said.

Gently pinching Jiazi's nose, Lin Hai smiled softly and said, "A few days ago, the emperor suddenly felt emotional, saying that all the concubines in the palace have been in the palace for many years, and their families must miss them very much, so... ..." At this point, Lin Hai stopped what he said like a trick.Naturally, he was not worried that Jiazi would spread the words of the two of them: Jiazi is not a child, so he naturally knows what to say and what not to say.

"So?" Jia Zi tilted his head to look at Lin Hai, blinked his eyes, grabbed Lin Hai's lapel, and said with a surprised face: "Could it be that he wants to take all the parents and brothers of the concubines into the palace?" In the middle, let their family reunite? Then he is really..." Jiazi almost blurted out the words that the emperor is crazy.Of course, in Jiazi's heart, he had already decided that the emperor was really crazy, so he expressed the feeling that the families of the concubines must miss them very much.

Lin Hai hugged Jiazi and turned over, leaned close to Jiazi's ear, and said in a low voice: "It's about the same. The emperor should soon issue a decree to allow noble relatives in Beijing to build relatives' villas, and then ask the higher authorities According to the decree, the nobles in the palace will go out of the palace for a short reunion."

"What did you say?" Jia Zi opened his eyes wide, looking completely unbelievable.She never thought that the emperor could make such a ridiculous decision: let the nobles in the palace go home to visit their relatives.

To put this kind of thing nicely, the emperor sympathized with the homesickness of his concubines.But in fact, the emperor was forced to abdicate due to physical reasons, and then found that his successor was not as obedient to him as he had promised, so he tried every means to vent his personal anger-using the treasury's money to vent his anger.

Everyone knows that taking over a car has always been one of the most costly things.

The emperor has been in power for many years and has been to the south of the Yangtze River several times.Every time he travels, in addition to the mighty entourage, the palace must be rebuilt, and the reception garden will be built, and gold and silver will be spent like running water.But in the end, what was left was a pile of abandoned gardens and an increasingly empty treasury.

Therefore, in his own eyes, the emperor's several southern tours were very successful and smooth, which made people talk about it.But for the treasury, which was already empty due to years of war, and the people in the places he passed, it was nothing less than a disaster.

However, the current emperor is not in good health, so naturally he can no longer go to the south of the Yangtze River.But Jiazi never imagined that the emperor himself could no longer harm the treasury's money, so he pushed out his own woman and let his own woman to toss the treasury's money.

Among the major families in Beijing, there are not a few families with women who are nobles in Beijing.Jiazi fully understands that after receiving the emperor's order, the families of the nobles in the palace must build so-called family-friendly villas, and then ask for an order to bring their daughters back for reunion.Moreover, comparisons among the nobles in Beijing have always been commonplace, and the family-saving villas they built must be more luxurious than the last one.In this way, it is undoubtedly worse for the already insufficient treasury.

Gently kissing Jiazi's eyelids, Lin Hai gently caressed Jiazi's face, and said with a smile: "When I first heard about this, I was just as surprised as you. It’s something I’ve never heard of.”

Jia Zi flattened his mouth: "It's not something that no one has heard of. Alas, the capital is going to be in chaos again." As the envoy of the Gyeonggi Camp, Jia Zi was worried about the money in the treasury After that, I immediately thought of the issue of safety.Although the law and order in the capital seems to have little to do with Jiazi, Jiazi knows that whether it is building a family-saving villa or going out for nobles in the palace, it will inevitably cause great chaos.If it doesn't work out, her Gyeonggi camp will have to be dispatched together with the Wucheng soldiers and horses to help maintain the law and order in the capital.

"Actually," Lin Hai leaned close to Jia Zi's ear and said softly, "You can think about it from a different angle." At the beginning, Lin Hai had the same worry as Jia Zi.However, after discussing with the new emperor, Lin Hai also suddenly realized that although this matter sounds absurd, it is also an opportunity to fill the national treasury.However, it was not good for the new emperor to come forward on his own, so he asked Lin Hai to discuss it.It was precisely because of this that Lin Hai knew about this in advance.

Jia Zi looked at Lin Hai suspiciously: "What?"

"The premise for a royal concubine to visit relatives is that," Lin Hai said with a gentle smile, "her natal family has a relatives' villa in Beijing. Building a relatives' villa requires a lot of construction work."

Jazi blinked in confusion: "And then?"

"Why did you suddenly change..." Under Jiazi's sharp gaze, Lin Hai paused for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Think about it, all the aristocratic families in Beijing want to build family-friendly villas, which will inevitably cause stone The prices of lumber, wood, etc. have soared. Then..." Lin Hai blinked, with a look of "you should understand".

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Jiazi was still in a daze: "They are all building family-saving villas, and the prices of stone and wood have skyrocketed. Isn't the money in the treasury going to be spent faster?"

Lin Hai was taken aback by Jiazi's words, and asked in puzzlement, "What does this have to do with the treasury?"

"Isn't it to build a family-saving villa?" Jiazi blinked and asked doubtfully, "Don't you need to spend money to build a family-friendly villa?"

Lin Hai finally understood what Jia Zi meant, and couldn't help biting Jia Zi's lips in a funny way: "Although the family-senting villa is also a pick-up, the money for the construction of the family-senting villa has to be paid by the families themselves." Thinking that Jiazi would directly bring the matter to the treasury, he couldn't help but find it very funny.

"Ah?" Jiazi's eyes widened, and he suddenly realized: Although those concubines are the emperor's women, they are not the emperor himself: they want to visit their relatives, so naturally they cannot let the treasury pay for it.

"Finally understand?" Lin Hai gently squeezed Jiazi's face, and said jokingly, "Why did you suddenly think of going to the treasury?"

Jia Zi made a face at Lin Hai: "Don't make fun of me. Go on." Hearing Lin Hai say that the concubine is visiting relatives and needs her family to spend their own money to build a visiting villa, Jia Zi already understood that Lin Hai guessed that Jia Amnesty would The reason for the matter of giving up the title is related to the fact that Rongguo Mansion's treasury owes money.However, regarding Lin Hai's speculation, Jia Zi couldn't help but feel a little amused: Where can Jia Amnesty go to find out the emperor's mind?The old boy obviously got angry with Jia Mu and reached the limit he could bear, so he decided to split up the family.

"So," Lin Hai kissed Jiazi's lips, and whispered softly, "The Rongguo Mansion will definitely build a family-friendly villa..."

The author has something to say: the long-lost update, there will be a chapter update later.

The Emperor: I am the Demon Moth King, who am I afraid of?

Xiren: I'm not afraid to tell you clearly that I have hooked up with Jia Baoyu.
