Master of Karma in the Red Chamber

Besides, after being lectured by Yan Liang a few days ago, Mrs. You has been in a bad mood, always feeling ashamed and shameless, and she can't help but hate Master Jing for not showing his face, and blame him for being too ruthless.But as time went by, she sometimes felt that it was kindness to respect the master, and she should be grateful.Especially since the foster mother came to her house, she has been helping her teach her two daughters very hard, and the daughters have become more and more respectful to her.

In the past two days, seeing the second daughter who behaves like everyone, Mrs. You gradually felt a sense of pride in raising a lady from a famous family, and she also realized in her heart that respecting the master was kind to her in the beginning.Some outsiders said that Mr. Jing was cruel and venomous, and never opened his face to others. Mrs. You really believed it a few days ago, but now, she has a different understanding.The master is a serious master, very majestic, but he has a very good heart, at least he has "ulterior motives" for the girls.

Thinking of this, Mrs. You was very happy, and even thought that he would help the women in this way because he had other thoughts about her.Master Jing probably just couldn't express his affection due to secular obstacles, so he secretly supported her, helped her discipline her daughter, and expressed his affection with practical actions.

Second Sister You came over to do needlework with her old mother, and when she saw her mother holding the needle, she was sad and laughed, and asked her what was wrong.

Mrs. You blushed, hesitated for a moment, and happily sat Layu's second sister next to her, "Why do you think Master Ning Fu is so kind to us girls, and even specially asked such a good nun to teach you?"

"I'm thinking about the relationship between relatives, and I want to help us." Second Sister You replied.

"You are still young, so you don't understand these things. What kind of relatives do our family stick to him? No one in his family surnamed Jia is so caring. Last time we went, we met Grandma Huang. He also complained that Jin Rong would not have the opportunity to go to Jia's school because of the master."

Mrs. You felt that if Master Jing really didn't care about their wives at all, why bother to treat them so well?It can be seen that what he said to himself that day was not all sincere.Besides, he has read a lot like him, and as a very high-status family lord, he must be arrogant and not good at expressing his children's personal feelings.He is so kind to people, only a woman who is so considerate as her can figure it out.

Thinking about it, Mrs. You couldn't help but pouted her mouth, happy again.

"Mother is in such a good mood today, embroider a crabapple for me." Second Sister You coquettishly sent the flower frame into Old Madam You's arms.

Mrs. You was not in the mood, she left that flowery frame, thinking of some reason to go to Ningguo Mansion again.In this matter between a man and a woman, if one person puts on airs, the other should take the initiative. Only in this way can a positive result be achieved.

It just so happened that it was Brother Qiang'er's birthday two days later.This child has no father and no mother, Mrs. You planned to make a pair of shoes for him, first to show her care for this lonely child, and second, to have an excuse to go to Ningguo Mansion again.

Thinking of this, Mrs. You picked up the needle and thread, and hurriedly started to do it.

As the weather gradually got warmer, Yang Feikuan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and Wu Min, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, proposed to invite a few close colleagues to have a drink and chat in a beautiful suburb of Beijing on the day of rest and bathing.Yan Liang was also included in the invitation, and went to the agreed place on time that day.

This other garden was built on a beautiful mountainside in the north of the suburbs of Beijing. There is water at the foot of the mountain, and there is a peach blossom forest all over the mountain. At this season, the peach blossoms are officially in bud.From a close look, it is a pink flower bud, and from a distance, it is full of pink dots, which is indeed springlike.When the carriage reached the foot of the mountain, it couldn't go up. Next, we needed to climb the mountain on foot.The stone steps up the mountain have just been cleaned, and there are still traces of dryness. There is also a long and delicate bat pattern engraved on the edge of each stone step. This alone can show its extraordinary wealth.

Yan Liang immediately became suspicious. This kind of artistic conception that needs to spend a lot of money to create is not like Yang Feijiao's, and it is not like that Wu Min.Yan Liang also checked Wu Min's details, and he didn't have a deep family background. Even if he was greedy for money in private, he would not dare to be so blatant.

When Yan Liang was halfway up the mountain, he saw two rows of green-clothed maidservants standing on the left and right sides of the small road leading to Bieyuan, a total of twelve maids.After paying his respects, two of them came out and led Yan Liang to the Bieyuan.

Yan Liang looked at the clothes of these maids, all of them were good, and the materials were better than those of ordinary girls.

Yan Liang became more and more sure that this 'small gathering' was not small.

After arriving at the place, Yan Liang heard someone whispering to Mr. Qi.Sure enough, after a while, Qi Shengao showed up with Wu Min and Yang Feijiao.Qi Shen cheerfully greeted everyone, and specially introduced Yan Liang, the newly appointed official doctor, to everyone.

Yan Liang became the focus of everyone's attention in an instant, but he didn't show the slightest honor to be favored. He just smiled warmly and said hello to everyone with a slight bow.

"He just came here, and he's still a little unfamiliar," Qi Shengao seemed to be helping Yan Liang, and called everyone to enjoy the spring scenery and recite poems first.

Yan Liang saw that Yang Feikuan, who was by Qi Shengao's side, had an unnatural expression, and guessed that he should be the same as himself, and was deceived by someone who could hide it.Yan Liang deliberately slowed down and walked last.Not long after, Yang Fei found an excuse to escape and came to Yan Liang's side.

Yang Feiqian asked: "Do you know about his coming?"

"You are the one who invited me. If you don't know, how would I know?" Yan Liang frowned slightly, a little disgusted by Yang Fei's thoughtless questioning.

Yang Feiqian was stunned for a moment, and sighed helplessly, "I was also invited by Wu Min. I thought it was just a few colleagues who could get along with me and relax together. Who would have thought that Qi, who happened to be obedient, would also come. This Let's all be cautious."

"Master Yang thinks that this other garden will be owned by Wu Min?"

Yan Liang's words made Yang Feikuo startled suddenly, and he suddenly realized, "We were both deceived by Wu Min?"

Yan Liang glanced at him, there was no need for him to answer such obvious questions.

Yang Fei turned around angrily, and went to ask Wu Min to clarify.

Waiting for everyone to eat, drink and watch the theater. After drinking until the afternoon, they all felt tired, supported each other, and said goodbye.Yang Feikuan's complexion was not good the whole time, and when he finally endured this moment, he immediately lifted his robe and left.Seeing this, Wu Min seemed to be afraid of offending him, so he hurried to help him, and Fei insisted on sending Yang Feijiao back to the mansion in person with the cheek.Seeing Wu Min's face looked better, Yang Feiqian let him go with his arm.

Yan Liang was naturally looking forward to leaving early, but was forced to stay by Qi Shengao.

"You didn't drink much, so it's okay to go back later. Just stay and chat with me to relieve boredom." Qi Shengao narrowed his eyes, leaning on the Luohan couch, a little lazy.

Yan Liang drank his tea with his head bowed, and did not respond to Qi Shengao's words at all, and Qi Shengao wisely stopped talking.At the end of the hatchback, Yan Liang raised his eyes and looked at him coldly: "Master Qi, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"What do you mean? Why should I have something to say to you?" Qi Shengao retorted unconvinced.

Yan Liang smiled, hurriedly got up and bowed to say goodbye. "Since you have nothing to say, please let the officer leave." After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Qi Shengao did not expect that Yan Liang would dare to act like this in front of him, let alone a mere fifth-rank official, even a first- and second-rank official of the imperial court would behave like a docile and obedient sheep in front of him .

This stunned, sudden surprise made Qi Shengao unable to react for a while, Yan Liang had already walked out of the door quickly and left.

Qi Shen kept his face high and couldn't ask others to chase him, but he made a strong mark on Yan Liang in his heart.On the way to court the next day, he kept thinking about how he should teach this guy a lesson today, so that he would know what would happen if he offended him.

"Do you have anything to say about the candidate for the minister of the Ministry of Industry?" the emperor asked in the court hall.

"Sun Qian, the magistrate of Yuzhou, and Lin Hai, the doctor of Lantai Temple, have achieved outstanding achievements in political affairs, and they are hard to distinguish. However, if you have to compare, I think Sun Qian is more capable. After all, he was the one who made the Yuzhou government a sensation all over the country. If it is handled properly, it can be seen that it can achieve great things and has outstanding talents." Yang Feikuan, the servant of the Ministry of officials, was the first to express his opinion.

When Qi Shengao heard him recommending Sun Qian, he blinked coldly and laughed a few times in his heart.

Then Wu Min, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, stood up and suggested Lin Ruhai.Since then, officials have expressed their support for the election of Lin Ruhai.There are also good reasons, Shilu scholar, Tanhua background, honest man, and such remarkable achievements, it is very suitable to be the minister of the Ministry of Industry.

The emperor felt that each had its own reasons and it was difficult to make a decision, so he decided to deal with this matter later.

After coming down to court, the emperor left Qi Shengao alone and asked him who was more suitable.Qi Shengao replied tactfully, saying that either one is good.The emperor blamed Qi Shengao for not being able to give him advice, but he was very happy in his heart, at least his favored minister was not suspected of forming a clique.The emperor thought for a while, and was about to say "Sun", when Qi Shengao suddenly spoke again.

"Your Majesty, why don't you give Jia Jing a try, but I heard that he has a good eye for selecting candidates."

These words suddenly aroused the emperor's curiosity about Yan Liang's ability to "see faces".

"This guy is very famous in my harem now. Two days ago, he helped the old lady choose candidates, and was praised by the old lady. Even I wonder if it's an overkill to give him a mere official. .”

"Whether it is a material or not, you will know after using it more." Qi Shengao suggested.

The emperor immediately ordered Qi Shengao to be in charge of this matter, and asked him to prepare five candidates for officials to be selected by Yan Liang.The emperor knew that Yan Liang was quite capable in selecting guards and court ladies, so he wanted to see if he could also make a difference in major matters.

Qi Shengao got what he wanted, and immediately went to trouble Yan Liang after resigning.

"In front of the emperor, I was kind enough to help you pick someone up. But let me tell you, the emperor knows well that if you choose the wrong one among these five people, you will not be able to afford it. "

Yan Liang was not frightened at all, but only made one request.If you want these five people, you must come to the capital and come before him.

This matter is very simple, Qi Shengao immediately asked someone to handle it.

Two days later, the news that Qi Shengao called people to Beijing was still on the way.

Lin Ruhai's reply letter has arrived.

The letter was sent to Rongguo Mansion first, and the messenger went to Ningguo Mansion after taking a few breaths, but was stopped by Mrs. Wang's people.She instigated Mother Jia to send Zhou Rui's family in the past, and directly invited Yan Liang to Rongguo Mansion to read the letter.

Obviously, Mother Jia and the others were very curious about Lin Ruhai's special letter to Yan Liang. If they wanted to know the answer, they naturally needed Yan Liang to open the letter in front of them.

Mother Jia couldn't wait to open the letter Jia Min wrote to herself, and she was very happy to learn that Lin Ruhai might be promoted to the capital.But she was happy for only a moment, and learned from the lines that Jia Yanliang had sent a letter to Yangzhou to greet him.

When Mother Jia thought that she was a month late in replying to the letter, apart from feeling guilty on the one hand, she also hated Jia Yanliang for meddling in his own business.

Lin's son-in-law is going to be promoted to the capital to become a high-ranking official, so Yan Liang can use his position in the official department to get the news early, so he must have the evil intention to curry favor with her good son-in-law as soon as possible.

Today, she will give a good lesson to Yan Liang, an idiot who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth.Still want to be honored by their promising son-in-law?no way!delusion!
