Master of Karma in the Red Chamber

After Jia Zheng heard the news, he immediately rode through the West Corner Gate, and hurried to ask Jia Mu's advice.At this moment, Mother Jia had already dressed, and when she saw Jia Zheng, her expression finally calmed down a bit, "I'm sending someone to look for you, but you told your brother-in-law about giving gifts yesterday?"

Jia Zheng looked regretful, "I said it, of course I said it. He still didn't listen to persuasion, so I had a hard time explaining the truth to him before I reluctantly agreed."

Mother Jia closed her eyelids as she breathed a sigh of relief, and opened them after a while, feeling much calmer than before.

"Then let him give this gift?" Jia Zheng tentatively asked Jia's mother.

Jia Mu frowned, thinking about the matter carefully, and never dared to make a rash decision.The key point is that it is really difficult for her to understand the temperament of the master of the East Mansion.If you say he is vicious, he will do good deeds and treat some people kindly. If you say he is kind, he will kill people when he is ruthless.Mother Jia didn't know what attitude Yan Liang held on this matter.If they do something wrong right now and cause him to dislike it, they will only hit the tiger's mouth in vain.

"The new official has three fires when he takes office, and he is easy to show off his power. In addition, he is inherently ruthless. Whether this matter should be done or not, you and I have to analyze carefully."

As soon as Jia's mother finished speaking, a servant girl came over to pass the message, "Mr. Lin returned all the presents from the old lady. He said that if he visits, he will prepare the gifts himself, so that the old lady will not spend money."

"Look at my good son-in-law, he's so sensible. All right, I'll do what he wants on my side, go back to your master." Mother Jia smiled kindly, and when the maid left, she sneered With an impatient look on his face.

"I don't think there's any way out. This is a polite way of refusing you," Jia Zheng said.

"He doesn't dare." Mother Jia snorted, she is an elder after all, she still has the ability to manage a son-in-law.

As soon as Mrs. Wang entered the door, she came over to comfort Jia Mu when she saw this, and then sent someone to collect all the returned bottles and jars and send them back to the back building.

"He was already arrogant and arrogant, so he didn't want to go. Why did you hurt yourself because of this? It's our unfilial piety." Mrs. Wang blamed herself empathetically.

"You're wrong. Who wants to beg for help, but isn't it for the sake of his career?" Jia Mu suddenly said fiercely.

Mrs. Wang kept silent, pretending to be offended, but in her heart she applauded what Jia Mu said.

"Then let's explain it to my brother-in-law again?" Jia Zheng looked at Mrs. Wang comfortingly, then sighed helplessly.

Yan Liang was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and his worries were not limited to his brother-in-law Lin Ruhai's promotion.Jia Zheng was even more worried about what he should do in the future.When he was a doctor in the fifth-rank official department, Jia Zheng was very afraid that he would wear small shoes for himself during the exam.Fortunately for him, he did not pass the exams for Beijing officials in the Ministry of Industry this year.But who would have expected that after just three to five months, he would be greatly promoted again, from a fifth-rank official to a second-rank official.When ordinary people become officials, they have to work hard for three to five years before they can be promoted from the fifth rank to the fifth rank. This is "prosperous official luck", which is considered fast.Look at him, he has been in the fifth grade for nearly ten years, and he hasn't moved.But when it came to Jia Yanliang, something was wrong, and the whole city couldn't be measured by normal standards.

Mother Jia sighed again and again, feeling very upset, "I don't know if our Rong Mansion is too unlucky, or that Jia Yanliang is too lucky."

"My son doesn't understand. What is he capable of? Let the emperor wantonly promote him twice in less than a year!" What are the historians doing to eat, but they failed to stop the emperor from making this decree!

Jia's mother sighed: "Since he came back from the Taoist temple, he has indeed been able to get official luck. Could it be that he practiced Taoism and used some methods to change his luck?" Jia's mother believed in this at first, but now that Yan Liang's promotion was so abnormal, she decided to He was even more suspicious that Yan Liang had used some unique method of changing his luck to change his own fate.

Jia Zheng was stunned for a moment, thinking that if there was such a way, he could try it later.After saying goodbye to Jia's mother, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang chatted for a while, and secretly sent someone to find out what Yan Liang was doing in Xuanzhen Temple, in order to find out the reason for his change of luck.

"He is very imposing, but we are forced to be humble to him. It would be great if there is such a way for us to find." Mrs. Wang has even begun to imagine that after her husband's luck changes, he will be greatly promoted in the court Scenes of prestige everywhere.Then let his daughter Yuanchun make some famous names in the harem, and with the power of his natal brother, at that time, the Rongguo Mansion will dominate the capital.As for Jia Yanliang, pinching him to death is as easy as killing a grasshopper.

Jia Zheng saw that Mrs. Wang was smiling and she was still in a daze, and asked her what was wrong.

Mrs. Wang blinked her eyes back to her senses, said in embarrassment that it was nothing, then turned around and arranged for Zhou Rui and his wife, who were the quickest under her command, to investigate the change of luck.

Besides, Second Sister You, after crying last night, her eyes were swollen like peaches this morning.Seeing this, Mrs. You and Third Sister You both asked her what was wrong.

Second Sister You pretended to be all right, and smiled warmly at the two of them: "I couldn't sleep last night, I opened the window to let the air in, and I was accidentally blinded by the wind, so I rubbed it." Second Sister You was afraid that the two would not believe it. , deliberately rubbed his eyes severely on the spot.

"Stop it, you're rubbing your eyeballs out." Mrs. You hurriedly stopped her, not allowing her to be so rude.

Second Sister You giggled and held Mrs. You's hand to show that she was fine.Third Sister You was watching the fun, covering her mouth and laughing at her.

After Second Sister You had eaten with Mrs. You and Third Sister, she hid in the house alone while others were taking a nap.She secretly moved out a box, set up a brazier, and threw the letters in the box, as well as some purses, into the brazier to burn.After the burning was over, Second Sister You took out a pair of jade bracelets, a few pieces of jade hairpins and jade pendants from the box.Then she grabbed a handful, raised her hand high, and slammed the jade on the ground, smashing the jade into pieces.

After getting rid of these troubles, Second Sister You felt better.During these days, she has been preoccupied, entangled in these things, repenting but hesitant to miss the kindness that others have treated her.Now that I think about it, my thoughts are really shameful.Thinking carefully about how shamelessly she received things from others and not cherishing herself, Second Sister You felt that she was too shameful for a woman, very shameful and detestable.If she wanted to change for the better, she would start by destroying these things, change her mind, and start a new life.

Lin Ruhai was under the pressure of Jia Mu and Jia Zheng, after all, he is a junior, and now he lives in Rongguo Mansion.As a guest, how could he have the face to refute the reason for rejecting others.Mother Jia was pressing hard. He wanted to be obedient, and he chose to visit Ningguo Mansion today because he followed his promise to them.

But Lin Ruhai is not a fool. He went to the Ningguo Mansion at this time, and it is easy to give people the impression of being a follower.Lin Ruhai made a detour, and when Yan Liang left the mansion, he pretended that he didn't know what to do and went to see him.After sitting for a while, he said goodbye to the butler, and the congratulatory gift was an ordinary fan drawn by him.

Yu Lu knew that his housekeeper still paid attention to Lin Ruhai, so he enthusiastically persuaded him to keep him for dinner, but Lin Ruhai absolutely refused, as if he was very afraid of meeting his master at this time.Yu Lu nodded his head and told Yan Liang what had happened when he turned around.

Yan Liang knew that Lin Ruhai was coerced, and sighed in his heart that he is indeed a veteran in the officialdom, and he is very good at handling things.Lin Ruhai actually avoided seeing him on purpose and came to greet him in this way, first avoiding the danger that he might be annoyed, and after returning home, he could successfully fool Jiamu.Not only that, but the whole incident allowed Yan Liang to see clearly his style of dealing with people: good-natured, quick-witted and intelligent, but not ingratiating to the powerful.

Yan Liang was very pleased with Lin Ruhai's handling of things, at least he really didn't recommend the wrong person this time.Yan Liang never doubted that Lin Ruhai was a good person.Lin Ruhai was indeed the only good official among the five candidates who had not committed any bad karma.

Yan Liang has been in the Ministry of Officials these days, and he has already understood the law of promotion and demotion of officials in Beijing for the past 40 years.Except for those who committed corruption and crimes, the rest of the officials who were dismissed for various reasons were basically caused by not knowing how to deal with things in a roundabout way.Even if some officials have a reputation of incorruptibility and are highly valued by the emperor, they will not be able to do what others do, and they will definitely not work in the capital for long.At the feet of the emperor, there are too many relatives of the emperor, and it is possible to meet them wherever you go.If an official does not know how to deal with these people in a roundabout way, he will only offend them in a reckless manner, and the gain will not be worth the loss.

Yan Liang glanced at the fan left behind by Lin Ruhai, the fan was painted with flowers and butterflies, the pattern was exquisite, and the meticulous brushwork was extremely careful.However, the style and pattern of this fan are somewhat feminine, and it seems that it is prepared for his precious daughter Xichun.

This Lin Ruhai really understood him with all his heart.

Yan Liang was very happy in his heart, played with the fan for a while, and happily went to harass Xichun...

Lin Ruhai didn't wait for the news from the Ning Mansion, but heaved a sigh of relief, no news is good news.At least he knew his intentions and didn't annoy him for causing trouble.Now the troublesome matter has been resolved, but through this time he also understands the 'danger' of living in Rong Mansion, Lin Ruhai has a vague feeling that the old lady will cause more troubles for them if they stay any longer.So he asked people to look for the house in secret, it would be best to find a place where he could move in immediately after cleaning, so that he could move out of Rong Mansion earlier and stay away from that confused old lady.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai had a discussion with Jia Min. After all, Jia's mother was her mother, so she naturally tried to be as tactful as possible.

Jia Min also agreed, "That's fine, we brought a lot of people. If we really live like this, I'm afraid they won't be able to bear it. Speaking of which, my mother cherishes her precious grandson who was born with jade, and the first thing in her eyes must be It's him, others can only settle for the next best thing. That's all, an old lady should love her grandson, but what do you think Baoyu's child is used to? Six years old should be sensible and polite, but he just likes to be in a pile of makeup He also jumped on our child, fumbling with his hands and arms. I saw it yesterday, but I didn't give him face, so I scolded him severely. This child didn't learn well when he was young, and no one disciplined him. The problem has formed a habit, can it be corrected?"

When Lin Ruhai heard this, she immediately turned black, "Regardless of whether the promotion is successful or not, we will move out!"
