Palace Flower as Employment [Red Mansion]
Chapter 34
When Xue Baochai and others came to Mrs. Xing's side, Mrs. Xing happened to have guests, so she sent Xue Baochai and others to go to the back and asked them to play with Lin Daiyu and Jia Wan, but they didn't expect that Lin Daiyu was not in her room at all. It's on Jia Wan's side.
Shi Xiangyun was very surprised.
When he saw Jia Wan's expression of shame and joy, he became even more aware:
"It turns out that sister Wan is also engaged."
Seeing this, Jia Xuan who was sitting below said with a smile, "That's not true. If it wasn't for the national funeral, the second aunt should have gotten engaged last year, so why wait until now?"
"Oh? I don't know who it is?"
"Of course it's the Xu family. Although he's not the eldest son, he's also the eldest son of the third family. The master said that the dowry of the second aunt is higher than that of the eldest aunt."
Jia Amnesty's original words were that when the Zhang family and Xu family fell into trouble one after another, he was unable to help these two families. Therefore, if Jia Wan were to marry, he would have to pay a heavy dowry.
Therefore, Jia Wan's dowry was set at a level of 15 from the beginning.
That is to say, Jia Wan's dowry furniture is also a good thing from the Jia family's warehouse. Jia Amnesty also prepares for her to marry a small village worth [-] yuan, as well as clothes and jewelry in a box of silver. Even Jia Qi also gave it to her. A dressing box with a mirror, two sets of glass tea sets, and two pairs of glass vases.
Xue Baochai suddenly said: "I vaguely heard that when Sister Yue got married, Brother Qi seemed to give some prescription."
Suddenly someone outside said: "I gave sister Yue a prescription for western white wine."
Everyone was startled, Shi Xiangyun immediately recognized that it was Jia Qi's voice, jumped up immediately, and hid behind Tanchun.
Jia Qi had seen Shi Xiangyun a long time ago, and he simply pretended not to see Shi Xiangyun like this:
"It's okay, I'll just say a few words and leave. When the eldest sister got married, I gave a prescription for white wine. There are also two prescriptions here, one is canned yellow peaches, and the other is apple cider vinegar. The second sister chooses one .Or," Jia Qi held up two envelopes in front of Jia Wan, "Second sister draws one?"
Prescription?
It is not uncommon to marry Zhuangzi's shop as a dowry. You may lose money in business, and Zhuangzi may also fail in harvest. Only Fangzi is the real valuable thing!
Even though she knew it wasn't the formula of glass, Xue Baochai's heart skipped a beat when she looked at the two envelopes.
Who married their daughter as a dowry to Fang Zi?
Who doesn't leave this kind of thing for their children and grandchildren?Who would give it to a married woman for free?Or a married woman who came out halfway!
Xue Baochai's mouth was full of bitterness.
Other people's brothers are like this, but my own brother is like that!Others just need to enjoy life comfortably at home. With brothers like Jia Qi, if Jia Yue and Jia Wan are wronged in the future, will Jia Qi support them?
But what about yourself?
It doesn't matter if the elder brother is useless, but I have to find a way to save him as my younger sister!
Thinking of being a thief at the age of 17, still living in a boudoir, without a husband's family, Xue Baochai couldn't tell what it was like.
Xue Baochai was uncomfortable, and Yingchun was equally uncomfortable.
Yingchun's character is cowardly, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't know what it means to marry Fangzi as a dowry!Yingchun can basically be sure that if she hadn't been adopted back then, with Jia She's temperament, she would definitely raise her status when she got married, and she would never lose her dowry.Even among these two prescriptions, at least one is for myself.
But now, she can only watch quietly from the sidelines, watching Jia Wan choose.
Jia Wan lowered her head slightly, thought for a while, and said: "Apple cider vinegar has a special taste, which is quite different from the ones bought outside. However, there are also a lot of sherbets here, and there are also apples. If I like it, I can send it to someone. It’s not that he has to go out to buy it. Instead, it’s this canned yellow peach. Older people always like to eat some fruit in winter. Our old lady also likes to eat peaches. Although canned is not as good as Fresh peaches are better than nothing. I want this."
"Row."
Jia Qi simply handed over the recipe of canned yellow peaches to Jia Wan, and Jia Wan personally put it away in her current dressing box, said a few more gossips, and Jia Wan got up to leave.
After Jia Qi left, Shi Xiangyun said, "What's the matter with Brother Qi? Why is it only for Sister Wan and not Second Sister?"
Jia Wan was taken aback, but Jia Xuan spoke first: "I'm sorry, I only have one second aunt. My fourth uncle also only has one second sister. As for this one, we don't dare to be my own sister."
"you!"
Shi Xiangyun raised his willow eyebrows upside down.
"How can you talk like that?"
Obviously, she was angry.
"I don't quite understand what Aunt Yun means. What's wrong with me?"
Shi Xiangyun froze, but Jia Xuan coldly glanced at Yingchun next to him, and met Shi Xiangyun again.
"Excuse me, what did I say wrong? Aunt Yun?"
Others, Su Shi Xiangyun, dare not provoke her easily, but Jia Xuan is not afraid.
"Aunt Yun, things belong to my fourth uncle. My fourth uncle can give them whatever he likes. Besides, since Aunt Yun is so fond of fighting injustices, why didn't you ask fourth uncle when fourth uncle was here just now? Fourth uncle left After reading it, it’s just here and here, who will see it?!”
"You!" Shi Xiangyun was furious, "You, you bullied me! I want to tell the old lady!"
"Who is bullying whom? Today is a good day for our second aunt, and you are here to make trouble. Just make trouble, but you dare not quarrel with my fourth uncle, you will only bully my second aunt! Don't look at Aunt Lin, this thing It belongs to my fourth uncle, not Aunt Lin! Besides, Aunt Lin is my fourth uncle’s daughter-in-law. As long as this thing is not a dowry for Aunt Lin from the Lin family, and as long as it is made by my fourth uncle, Aunt Lin will only You can listen to my fourth uncle!"
Shi Xiangyun never expected that Jia Xuan would not save her face at all, feeling wronged and sad, with a fever on his face, he rushed out at that time.
Shi Xiangyun all went back, and Yingchun also got up to leave. Naturally, Tanchun and Xue Baochai couldn't stay longer, so they had to leave.
Seeing this group of people leave, Jia Xuan made a grimace at the backs of these people, then turned her head and said, "Aunt Lin, Second Aunt, look at them, those who don't know think they are deliberately trying to create trouble for us! "
Jia Wan said, "What do they have to do with us now?"
Jia Han also said: "That's not true. Seeing that my third uncle is also engaged, we will have a wedding in the coming year. After the wedding, we will separate..."
Thinking of this, Jia Han also felt very uncomfortable.
Among the three uncles, Jia Xuan and Jia Han are the closest to Jia Qi, not because Jia Qi is young and they grew up together, but because Jia Qi treats them the best.
When they first came, they didn't know a few big characters, and they were not as versatile and proficient in poetry as Shi Xiangyun Tanchun and others. Therefore, almost all of them felt inferior when they first came.
Although Mrs. Jia Shexing and Jia Lian and Jia Cong comforted them again and again, they were still uneasy. They were afraid that they would lose face to Mrs. Jia Shexing, and they were also afraid that they would be looked down upon when they got married.
It turned out that Jia Qi found out what was on their minds, and then told them:
Reading and literacy is a must, but reciting poems and painting are not.Because most of the men in this world are as idle as Jia Zheng and Jia Baoyu, and it is rare to play at home every day. Even Jia She has no errands, but Jia She also rarely socializes, and usually has no time in broad daylight. Staying in the inner house is basically for socializing or on the way to socializing, or preparing for socializing, and like him, what you will tell Lin Daiyu is often about current|event|political|political.
Therefore, reciting poems and painting, unless you like it, or to pass the time, you can learn it to a high level naturally, and you don't have to force the rest.
Even if your future husband composes a poem in front of you, you don’t need to immediately compose a poem that can match the [-] Tang poems and the [-] Song poems to answer the poem. What do you want to express, and then you can answer with famous sentences. If you are a woman who really made a famous sentence, it’s fine if you meet a husband who is open-minded. , low self-esteem husband, that is simply asking for trouble.
Of course, a housekeeper is not required.Unless there are special reasons, for example, there is no serious mother-in-law, or the mother-in-law is very unreliable, otherwise, basically follow the mother-in-law and sister-in-law (if there are any above), and learn first, except for your own dowry, basically Just take care of your own small courtyard.
In fact, in this world, when girls from most families get married, they seldom dowry land, Zhuang Zi, etc. Most of them are clothes, jewelry, furniture, sundries, and silver in a box, because the land is reserved for their sons. .
That is to say, Jia Amnesty, who had a lot of money in his hand and a lot of Zhuangzi, and because he felt that he had climbed over others (the Qi family of the household servant) or owed them (the second Xu family of the former Yue family), so he gave it to Zhuangzi.If it were someone else, only a girl like Lin Daiyu would have so many fields in her hands, and even Wang Xifeng didn't have a Zhuangzi shop or land for dowry.
Jia Qi told them directly that after marriage, if there is anything that cannot be decided, or if you are not sure, you can just talk to your husband directly, even if it is about your own dowry to Zhuangzi.
Women will regard the power of the housekeeper as proof of their status as the main wife. In fact, the same is true for men. If you ask your husband about marrying Zhuangzi as a dowry, your husband will think that this is a sign that you trust him and treat him as your own.
Women can't be too ignorant.Like the second wife over there, she is bold but has no taboos. She doesn't know what to do and what not to do. That's the root cause of trouble.Jia Yuanchun has been a concubine for several years, and Mrs. Wang is still white, this is the best proof.
A better woman is the kind of woman who can take care of her family honestly.So, don't think it's great that you wash clothes, cook and take care of your children, because in this world, this is the minimum requirement for a woman.Not to mention, when you marry a daughter from someone like the Jia family, you will definitely marry a girl and a woman as a dowry. As long as you have money, as long as you can afford it, you can use a girl if you want, and a woman if you want to use her. The in-law's family took it seriously, dismissed all the people they married without knowing the situation, and then exhausted themselves to death, that is a fool!
Of course, even if you don't have so much dowry, you can earn money and afford to hire people, you are also qualified to raise a group of maids and women, so that you can live comfortably, earn more money, and run a business for yourself. A better quality of life forms a virtuous circle and makes you live a better life.
A better woman, in addition to being able to take care of the house properly, can also deduce various trends from various clues of the court, and then avoid various risks.This kind of woman is often a good woman that Baijiaqiu seeks.
The best woman is on the basis of the former, has a zest for life, not only can adjust herself in a timely manner, but also can make others' lives happy, and can stick to her own heart when it comes to major events, and she will be happy when others don't notice. Many disasters will be eliminated invisible by means of spring wind and rain.
Jia Wan still remembers that when the Grand View Garden was being reformed, Jia Qi explained it to herself using the financial situation of Mrs. Jia Zhengwang’s family and the Grand View Garden as examples:
"...At that time, the rule over there would be proposed to be changed. The reason was that extravagance required frugality. The third girl had experienced the spirit. According to common sense, if it were me, anyway, there was a position with seven or eight hands over there. If I can’t find someone to do the work, I’ve already wiped all those seven or eight hands, and went directly to the one who can do the work. But that girl Bao didn’t. I don’t know if she really didn’t understand or she was fake. I don't understand, or is it because she feels that she has bought people's hearts now, and she will have time to clean up after she enters the house? I don't think she has ever thought about the income and expenditure situation there..."
Jia Qi told Jia Wan plainly that a woman like Xue Baochai who is so selfish that she doesn't even care about her husband and her family and only thinks about herself is taboo for any man.
In this world, there are always many women who think they are great for no reason, and there are also many women who have low self-esteem.
Xue Baochai belongs to the former, while Jia Yue, Jia Wan, Jia Xuan and Jia Han belong to the latter.
Who made them adoptive daughters?
Only Jia Qi can explain and analyze to them, tell them what to do when they encounter problems, and build up their confidence.Now, with this prescription again, Jia Wan knew very well that if something happened to her in the future, Jia Qi would definitely help her.Similarly, whatever happens to Jia Qi in the future, even at the risk of being abandoned by her husband's family, she will reach out.
This is not only the case for Jia Wan, but also for Jia Xuan and Jia Han, even the married Jia Yue.
Seeing Jia Wan, Jia Xuan and Jia Han looking at her with slightly red eyes, Lin Daiyu sighed slightly, and said: "The matter of family division is decided by the master, not us people can open the mouth." Lowering his voice, he said, "Actually, separating families also has benefits. Brother Qi has ideas. He wants to solve one problem: the flooding of the Yellow River, and the other is the livelihood of the people. But these two things, there is no big money and food. It can't be done. However, the imperial court doesn't have enough money and food, but there are a group of corrupt officials, so they can only deal with it passively. As for this family, Brother Qi is the youngest son after all, and they don't separate the family now. Not pretty."
According to the national law, such things as land must be passed on to the family, that is to say, unless Jia Lian and Jia Cong are dead, otherwise, according to normal procedures, even if the money is borrowed by Jia Qi, as long as he buys it in the name of Jia Amnesty Jia Lian should inherit [-]% of the land, and the remaining [-]% will be shared equally between Jia Lian's eldest son and Jia Cong and Jia Qi.
Jia Xuan said eagerly: "But, the national law..."
Lin Daiyu said: "National laws cannot be violated. When the family is divided in the future, the second brother will definitely get [-]% of all the land under the master's name."
Now Jia Lian has no son, so the remaining [-]% will be shared equally between Jia Cong and Jia Qi.
"Well, fourth uncle borrowed money from the treasury to buy it!"
Lin Daiyu nodded, and said: "That's true. Besides, the second elder brother Lian may not support so many refugees, so what the master means is that after the separation, Brother Qi will pay the original price in front of the master. Buy those riverbanks from the two brothers."
That is to say, in the end, Jia Qi will still get those river beaches, but he will have to pay again.
In addition, Jia Amnesty, Jia Lian and Jia Cong did not have to bear the money that Jia Qi borrowed from the court in his own name.
Jia Xuan exclaimed, "This is not fair to Fourth Uncle."
Lin Daiyu said: "But it complies with the law. And it was originally proposed by your fourth uncle."
There has never been absolute fairness in this world.
Yes,
According to common sense, since the land bought by Jia Qi is counted as Jia Amnesty's property, the shortfall should also be attributed to Jia Amnesty.But the fact is that there is still a law in this world that parents do not accumulate private property.According to this law, if Jia Qi buys land in his own name, he will definitely be impeached, so he can only buy land in Jia Amnesty's name.
In this way, the land purchased in the name of Jia Amnesty belongs to the property of the elders, and when the family is divided, it must be done in accordance with relevant laws.
And Jia Qi borrowed the money himself, that was his own business, and had nothing to do with Jia Amnesty.If the amount was small, Jia Amnesty helped Jia Qi pay back, that would be good, but like Jia Qi, a loan of 300 million, even if Jia Lian didn't open his mouth, those censors would impeach him if they knew about it.Therefore, Jia Amnesty helped Jia Qi repay the debt, and it was Jia Lian's interest that was lost.
This is not in line with the court's principle of protecting the eldest son.
Lin Daiyu also supports this.
Not only because it was Jia Qi's decision, but also because with her and Jia Qi's abilities, it was easy to earn 300 million.Instead of delaying the brotherhood between Jia Lian and Jia Qi's brothers and delaying Jia Qi's layout of the whole world for such a little thing, that is completely putting the cart before the horse.
Jia Han hesitated for a moment, and said, "In this way, our family's property has doubled."
Lin Daiyu nodded and said, "That's right."
"Then, what about the glass workshop?"
"Those workshops were originally on my Zhuangzi, and that shop is also mine, so it's my dowry."
Hearing what Lin Daiyu said, Jia Wan, Jia Xuan and Jia Han felt relieved.
Although Jia Qi seems to have been wronged on the land, as long as the glass is still in Jia Qi's hands, it is more important than anything else, and it is a treasure that is really making money every day.
Not only Jia Wan, Jia Xuan and Jia Han thought so, even Mrs. Xing, Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng and Jia Cong thought so.
There are no parents in the world who do not love their son, let alone Jia Qi crawled out of Mrs. Xing's stomach.
However, Mrs. Xing is not the kind of short-sighted person. She has long known that glass prescriptions, including glass workshops and glass shops, are the real money. Compared with glass prescriptions, there are also glass workshops. , everything else is trivial.As long as there are these things, it is only a matter of time before he wants to earn back 300 million taels of silver.
Therefore, Mrs. Xing is satisfied to be able to use the 100 million mu of land to leave the prescription and the workshop.
Wang Xifeng doesn't understand the law, but she knows good and bad.In her opinion, with Jia She's love for her youngest son, it's not surprising that she can't touch the place and the glass workshop and glass recipes at all.Not to mention, Jia Qi is much more capable than Jia Lian, and since he is in the cabinet, Jia Lian still needs his care.
Therefore, the land can be divided according to the rules, and after these lands are turned back, the father-in-law decides to let Jia Qi buy them, but the couple still get more than 200 million yuan for nothing?
What else could Wang Xifeng be dissatisfied with?
As for Jia Cong, he never thought that those fields would be worthy of writing.However, in this way, when he gets married next year, the private house in his hands can be doubled.Mrs. Xu's dowry and private house must belong to Jia Cong alone, that's for sure.Jia Cong would get 30% of Jia She's property at most. This is because Jia Lian has no son. If Jia Lian gave birth to a son in the coming year, or Mrs. Jia Shexing hatched another egg, he The portion will also be reduced.However, for this known part, Jia Cong reckons that he also has more than 30 yuan, and with this bet, it will be more than 70 yuan. Dowry, his own personal property is [-]!
How many people in this world have so much money when they are just adults?
Even if the prince opened a mansion, it would be nothing more than one prince mansion, two Huangzhuang houses, plus 23 taels of silver.
Less than half of Jia Cong's!
Mrs. Xing, Wang Xifeng, and Jia Cong, the people who are most likely to object, have no objections, so the matter is naturally decided.
Jia Amnesty began to run marriages for Jia Cong.
To be honest, people who knew Jia Amnesty's original plan were surprised.
According to Jia Amnesty's original plan, it should be that Jia Cong has participated in a test in the next year, and Jia Amnesty will run the wedding for him again.After all, Jia Cong was only 16 years old at that time.
It's not too early for a man to discuss marriage at the age of 16.
Of course, Jia Cong is only 15 years old now, which is not too early.
Jia Amnesty had just appointed his second daughter to the Xu family, and here he was going to propose to the Zhang family for his second son, and the Zhang family was also very surprised.
It's not because the two families are right, but because the two families are no longer right.Of course, it's not that the family status of the Zhang family is higher than that of the Jia family, but that the family status of Jia She's family is higher than that of the Zhang family.
At the beginning of the old Prince Yizhong's old affairs, the old man of the Zhang family was implicated miserably as the prince's young teacher. If the old man of the Zhang family hadn't resolutely sacrificed his life, the Zhang family would definitely be punished by the emperor like other families, and finally ended up The fate of copying and chopping all over the house.But even so, the Zhang family was hated by the Supreme Emperor, so they all had to retreat from the court and became civilians.Even if the Zhang family became filial piety later, they have left the center for three years, and they have no place in the court.
The Zhang family found out that the Supreme Emperor, who had no Zen throne at that time, was still angry with their family, and immediately adjusted the policy. All the children in the family should just pass the exam and resolutely refuse to take the exam.Those who used to be officials didn't try to make connections if they could.
All come to be squires.
The Supreme Emperor felt that Zhang's family had brought his son into trouble, and the Zhang family also believed that it was the Supreme Emperor who was attached to power and drove his son crazy to death!
It can be said that if the current emperor hadn't pardoned the old ministers and sent envoys to the Zhang family when he ascended the throne, the Zhang family might have preferred to be a teacher in the countryside.
However, even if the current emperor is very sincere, a few people from the Zhang family did not come here, and among them, the long house of the Zhang family still stayed in their hometown.Today, Zhang Jijiu who is in the Guozijian is the younger brother of the current head of the Zhang family.
The one Jia Amnesty proposed for Jia Cong was Zhang Jijiu's beloved daughter, Miss Zhang Shuya.
Zhang Jijiu now only has two sons and one daughter. He originally had an older daughter. Unfortunately, when the Zhang family was in the most difficult time, the girl was divorced by her in-laws, and the food and medicinal materials were given to her parents and younger brother. After working in the countryside, he worked so hard that he was exhausted and died young.
Miss Zhang Shuya got it after Zhang Jijiu, because she is her father's old son, and she looks very similar to her sister, so she is very loved by her family.
To be honest, when the Zhang family was in trouble, Jia Amnesty failed to show up in time, and only asked the people below to bring them 800 taels of silver. The Zhang family was not without grudges.Later, I heard that Mrs. Zhang's death had a lot to do with Mrs. Jia Muwang, and Jia Amnesty was like that, so this grudge became a suspicion.Later, when I saw Jia Lian like that, he had been married for a year or two, and he completely ignored his own uncle, and even treated his own father like that. He was obviously the son of everyone, but he actually ran errands for Mrs. Jia Zhengwang and his wife. Housekeeping.
At that time, not long after Zhang Jijiu returned to Beijing, he was very dissatisfied with Jia Amnesty, so that the relationship between the two fell to freezing point.
It can be said that if Jia Qi hadn't sued the imperial court, if Jia Amnesty hadn't separated Jia Zheng's family, if Jia Lian hadn't acquired the real shortage through Lin Ruhai, Zhang Jijiu wouldn't have re-examined Jia's family, and the relationship between the two families wouldn't have changed. break the ice.
However, this was not enough for Zhang Jijiu to remarry his daughter to Jia's family.
There's no way, that old lady from Jia's family is cheating!
With that old lady around, my daughter is just like his aunt and sister, she has a submissive and gentle temperament. If she really wants to marry her, she won't be swallowed alive!
I heard that Jia Lian's daughter-in-law is the same as her aunt when she was young! ! ! !
Then, he came to visit in person, and Jia Amnesty, who proposed marriage by the way, said directly that Jia Cong got married first, then Jia Qi, and when Jia Qi got married, the family could be separated.
When it's time to get ready, he's all ready.
What?
Zhang Jijiu really had a dazed face.
At that time, Zhang Jijiu was like spraying Jia She on his face: "Do you know, how old is your youngest son this year?"
What Jia Qi does is all good things that benefit the country and the people, but it is this kind of good things that will make the world envy and hate, because probably more than one person will think in his heart: "If I have so much money , I can do it too."
Although Jia Qi later proved with a glass mirror that he was indeed capable of earning money, others had such a deep impression of him that it was impossible to turn around in a short while.
How terrible the human heart is, no one knows better than Zhang Jijiu, who has gone from rich to poor, and then from poor to rich.
Jia Qi is really too rich, and now someone in the court already calls him the God of Wealth—not to mention that he always knows how to make money, and he also has a fiancée with a very generous dowry. Life is so golden! ——Countless civil and military ministers all hope that Jia Qi will be able to give birth to a series of daughters in the future...
_(:3ゝ∠)_
Jia Qi is rich, but the problem is that not only is Jia Qi rich, he also pays taxes honestly!Not only the land tax, but also the personal tax, no matter men or women, as long as they are old, he will help to pay, and even the population files, he has made them neat and tidy, not afraid of being checked.
For this alone, Zhang Jijiu admired him very much.
Hidden fields and hidden households have been a difficult problem for the imperial court since ancient times.Where does the extravagant life of a wealthy family come from if you don't hide from the fields?
Hidden fields and hidden households have always been the theme of the battle of wits and courage between emperors of all dynasties and noble families.
Why did the former dynasty openly allow tax exemption for those with meritorious deeds?That's because the problem of hidden fields and hidden households is too serious to be completely solved, so they choose to recognize the legitimacy, and can also draw the energy of the court and use it in other places.
This is also a very helpless choice.
Jia Amnesty is a lord, Jia Qi is a juren, the land in the hands of their father and son is not taxed, but Jia Qi still pays.
Jia Qi not only paid the taxes himself, but also paid for the refugees below.
This kind of behavior not only puts a huge burden on oneself, but also offends the civil and military ministers of the entire imperial court, and puts all the civil and military ministers on the fire!
Zhang Jijiu knew very well that when Jia Cong was in the Jinluan Hall and said loudly that he would not lose a copper coin in the taxes that should be paid, it was tantamount to standing on the opposite side of all civil and military officials.
If the emperor remembers him well, then he is naturally beautiful. Once the emperor expresses his dislike for him, I am afraid that all civil and military officials will unite to kill this kid!
Jia Amnesty is going to separate the sons now?
Zhang Jijiu can tell at a glance that this is a helpless move chosen by Jia Amnesty in order to keep the other two sons, Jia Lian and Jia Cong.
In fact, even if Jia Qi is dead, his property will still cause competition among the world.It is impossible to keep Jia Lian and Jia Cong brothers away from danger by distinguishing between families.
The only way to really get Jia Lian and Jia Cong out of danger is to separate Jia Qi from the sect!
It's a pity that Jia Amnesty is not as cruel as Jia Zheng, and Jia Qi is too young, so separating the family now is already eye-catching.If the sect is divided again, I'm afraid there will be another disturbance.
As long as Jia Qi is not separated from the sect, Jia Lian and Jia Cong brothers and their descendants who are likely to get the wealth behind Jia Qi will not end well.
Why is Zhang Jijiu willing to marry his daughter to Jia's family?
Marrying the Jia family's daughter is easy, anyway, the crime is not as good as marrying a daughter, as long as Jia Qi's wealth is not contaminated, it is really risky to marry a daughter to the Jia family!
Zhang Jijiu still didn't answer in the end, but sent Jia Amnesty out politely.
According to common sense, Zhang Jijiu said so, his attitude should be very clear, but Jia Amnesty still did not give up.
Jia Amnesty's idea is very simple. Of the few women he has known in his life, his original partner, Mrs. Zhang, is of the best quality, and his daughter Xianggu and Zhang Jijiu's daughter must also be good.Combined with the situation of each family, the Zhang family is also the cleanest, with the fewest things behind it.
Of course Jia Amnesty was willing to let Jia Cong marry Zhang Jijiu's daughter.
Zhang Jijiu refused to agree?
It doesn't matter, if he runs a few more times, the dowry will be fully paid!
Jia She's behavior soon alarmed the entire capital. Almost everyone who knew it knew that Jia She fell in love with Zhang Jijiu's daughter and wanted to marry his second son, but Zhang Jijiu refused. Xie Zheng is soft and hard.
Jia Amnesty's dowry gift prepared by Zhang Shuya also changed from [-] to [-] in rumors, and then from [-] to [-].
Before Wang Xifeng said anything about this, Li Wan in the Grand View Garden became sour.
Coincidentally, good news came from the Qi family that day, saying that Jia Yue was pregnant, and because she was less than three months old, she couldn't come to Jia Wan's engagement ceremony.
At that time, everyone greeted Jiamu in front of Jiamu. Wang Xifeng was the first to congratulate Jiamu and Mrs. Xing.
Mrs. Xing said: "Amitabha, although they say that their children are still young, don't worry. But girl Yue is not as good as you and Lian'er, childhood sweethearts. I only hope that she can have a boy at once. I got a son, and since then I have gained a firm foothold in my husband's family."
Li Wan suddenly said: "With the dowry of the eldest sister, can others still bully her?"
Mother Jia waved her hands again and again: "So what if the dowry is generous? If a woman doesn't have a son, she will grow old and miserable in the future. It's better to give birth to a son early."
Li Wan said: "No, someone should hurry up."
As he spoke, he looked straight at Wang Xifeng and smiled.
Wang Xifeng always felt that Li Wan had bad intentions for her, rolled her eyes, and was about to speak, but Mrs. Xing had already spoken before her: "What's the matter? Lian'er is busy! Now he is in charge of the cement business, Every day when I go home, I can hardly keep my eyes open, and my head is tilted to the side after a few words. This childbirth is not a matter of one person, so how can you blame Feng girl?"
He patted Wang Xifeng's hand again, and said: "This child also pays attention to fate, don't come in a hurry. You don't have to worry, eat well and sleep well, the most important thing is to take care of your body first."
Wang Xifeng immediately said: "My wife still loves me."
Shi Xiangyun was very surprised.
When he saw Jia Wan's expression of shame and joy, he became even more aware:
"It turns out that sister Wan is also engaged."
Seeing this, Jia Xuan who was sitting below said with a smile, "That's not true. If it wasn't for the national funeral, the second aunt should have gotten engaged last year, so why wait until now?"
"Oh? I don't know who it is?"
"Of course it's the Xu family. Although he's not the eldest son, he's also the eldest son of the third family. The master said that the dowry of the second aunt is higher than that of the eldest aunt."
Jia Amnesty's original words were that when the Zhang family and Xu family fell into trouble one after another, he was unable to help these two families. Therefore, if Jia Wan were to marry, he would have to pay a heavy dowry.
Therefore, Jia Wan's dowry was set at a level of 15 from the beginning.
That is to say, Jia Wan's dowry furniture is also a good thing from the Jia family's warehouse. Jia Amnesty also prepares for her to marry a small village worth [-] yuan, as well as clothes and jewelry in a box of silver. Even Jia Qi also gave it to her. A dressing box with a mirror, two sets of glass tea sets, and two pairs of glass vases.
Xue Baochai suddenly said: "I vaguely heard that when Sister Yue got married, Brother Qi seemed to give some prescription."
Suddenly someone outside said: "I gave sister Yue a prescription for western white wine."
Everyone was startled, Shi Xiangyun immediately recognized that it was Jia Qi's voice, jumped up immediately, and hid behind Tanchun.
Jia Qi had seen Shi Xiangyun a long time ago, and he simply pretended not to see Shi Xiangyun like this:
"It's okay, I'll just say a few words and leave. When the eldest sister got married, I gave a prescription for white wine. There are also two prescriptions here, one is canned yellow peaches, and the other is apple cider vinegar. The second sister chooses one .Or," Jia Qi held up two envelopes in front of Jia Wan, "Second sister draws one?"
Prescription?
It is not uncommon to marry Zhuangzi's shop as a dowry. You may lose money in business, and Zhuangzi may also fail in harvest. Only Fangzi is the real valuable thing!
Even though she knew it wasn't the formula of glass, Xue Baochai's heart skipped a beat when she looked at the two envelopes.
Who married their daughter as a dowry to Fang Zi?
Who doesn't leave this kind of thing for their children and grandchildren?Who would give it to a married woman for free?Or a married woman who came out halfway!
Xue Baochai's mouth was full of bitterness.
Other people's brothers are like this, but my own brother is like that!Others just need to enjoy life comfortably at home. With brothers like Jia Qi, if Jia Yue and Jia Wan are wronged in the future, will Jia Qi support them?
But what about yourself?
It doesn't matter if the elder brother is useless, but I have to find a way to save him as my younger sister!
Thinking of being a thief at the age of 17, still living in a boudoir, without a husband's family, Xue Baochai couldn't tell what it was like.
Xue Baochai was uncomfortable, and Yingchun was equally uncomfortable.
Yingchun's character is cowardly, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't know what it means to marry Fangzi as a dowry!Yingchun can basically be sure that if she hadn't been adopted back then, with Jia She's temperament, she would definitely raise her status when she got married, and she would never lose her dowry.Even among these two prescriptions, at least one is for myself.
But now, she can only watch quietly from the sidelines, watching Jia Wan choose.
Jia Wan lowered her head slightly, thought for a while, and said: "Apple cider vinegar has a special taste, which is quite different from the ones bought outside. However, there are also a lot of sherbets here, and there are also apples. If I like it, I can send it to someone. It’s not that he has to go out to buy it. Instead, it’s this canned yellow peach. Older people always like to eat some fruit in winter. Our old lady also likes to eat peaches. Although canned is not as good as Fresh peaches are better than nothing. I want this."
"Row."
Jia Qi simply handed over the recipe of canned yellow peaches to Jia Wan, and Jia Wan personally put it away in her current dressing box, said a few more gossips, and Jia Wan got up to leave.
After Jia Qi left, Shi Xiangyun said, "What's the matter with Brother Qi? Why is it only for Sister Wan and not Second Sister?"
Jia Wan was taken aback, but Jia Xuan spoke first: "I'm sorry, I only have one second aunt. My fourth uncle also only has one second sister. As for this one, we don't dare to be my own sister."
"you!"
Shi Xiangyun raised his willow eyebrows upside down.
"How can you talk like that?"
Obviously, she was angry.
"I don't quite understand what Aunt Yun means. What's wrong with me?"
Shi Xiangyun froze, but Jia Xuan coldly glanced at Yingchun next to him, and met Shi Xiangyun again.
"Excuse me, what did I say wrong? Aunt Yun?"
Others, Su Shi Xiangyun, dare not provoke her easily, but Jia Xuan is not afraid.
"Aunt Yun, things belong to my fourth uncle. My fourth uncle can give them whatever he likes. Besides, since Aunt Yun is so fond of fighting injustices, why didn't you ask fourth uncle when fourth uncle was here just now? Fourth uncle left After reading it, it’s just here and here, who will see it?!”
"You!" Shi Xiangyun was furious, "You, you bullied me! I want to tell the old lady!"
"Who is bullying whom? Today is a good day for our second aunt, and you are here to make trouble. Just make trouble, but you dare not quarrel with my fourth uncle, you will only bully my second aunt! Don't look at Aunt Lin, this thing It belongs to my fourth uncle, not Aunt Lin! Besides, Aunt Lin is my fourth uncle’s daughter-in-law. As long as this thing is not a dowry for Aunt Lin from the Lin family, and as long as it is made by my fourth uncle, Aunt Lin will only You can listen to my fourth uncle!"
Shi Xiangyun never expected that Jia Xuan would not save her face at all, feeling wronged and sad, with a fever on his face, he rushed out at that time.
Shi Xiangyun all went back, and Yingchun also got up to leave. Naturally, Tanchun and Xue Baochai couldn't stay longer, so they had to leave.
Seeing this group of people leave, Jia Xuan made a grimace at the backs of these people, then turned her head and said, "Aunt Lin, Second Aunt, look at them, those who don't know think they are deliberately trying to create trouble for us! "
Jia Wan said, "What do they have to do with us now?"
Jia Han also said: "That's not true. Seeing that my third uncle is also engaged, we will have a wedding in the coming year. After the wedding, we will separate..."
Thinking of this, Jia Han also felt very uncomfortable.
Among the three uncles, Jia Xuan and Jia Han are the closest to Jia Qi, not because Jia Qi is young and they grew up together, but because Jia Qi treats them the best.
When they first came, they didn't know a few big characters, and they were not as versatile and proficient in poetry as Shi Xiangyun Tanchun and others. Therefore, almost all of them felt inferior when they first came.
Although Mrs. Jia Shexing and Jia Lian and Jia Cong comforted them again and again, they were still uneasy. They were afraid that they would lose face to Mrs. Jia Shexing, and they were also afraid that they would be looked down upon when they got married.
It turned out that Jia Qi found out what was on their minds, and then told them:
Reading and literacy is a must, but reciting poems and painting are not.Because most of the men in this world are as idle as Jia Zheng and Jia Baoyu, and it is rare to play at home every day. Even Jia She has no errands, but Jia She also rarely socializes, and usually has no time in broad daylight. Staying in the inner house is basically for socializing or on the way to socializing, or preparing for socializing, and like him, what you will tell Lin Daiyu is often about current|event|political|political.
Therefore, reciting poems and painting, unless you like it, or to pass the time, you can learn it to a high level naturally, and you don't have to force the rest.
Even if your future husband composes a poem in front of you, you don’t need to immediately compose a poem that can match the [-] Tang poems and the [-] Song poems to answer the poem. What do you want to express, and then you can answer with famous sentences. If you are a woman who really made a famous sentence, it’s fine if you meet a husband who is open-minded. , low self-esteem husband, that is simply asking for trouble.
Of course, a housekeeper is not required.Unless there are special reasons, for example, there is no serious mother-in-law, or the mother-in-law is very unreliable, otherwise, basically follow the mother-in-law and sister-in-law (if there are any above), and learn first, except for your own dowry, basically Just take care of your own small courtyard.
In fact, in this world, when girls from most families get married, they seldom dowry land, Zhuang Zi, etc. Most of them are clothes, jewelry, furniture, sundries, and silver in a box, because the land is reserved for their sons. .
That is to say, Jia Amnesty, who had a lot of money in his hand and a lot of Zhuangzi, and because he felt that he had climbed over others (the Qi family of the household servant) or owed them (the second Xu family of the former Yue family), so he gave it to Zhuangzi.If it were someone else, only a girl like Lin Daiyu would have so many fields in her hands, and even Wang Xifeng didn't have a Zhuangzi shop or land for dowry.
Jia Qi told them directly that after marriage, if there is anything that cannot be decided, or if you are not sure, you can just talk to your husband directly, even if it is about your own dowry to Zhuangzi.
Women will regard the power of the housekeeper as proof of their status as the main wife. In fact, the same is true for men. If you ask your husband about marrying Zhuangzi as a dowry, your husband will think that this is a sign that you trust him and treat him as your own.
Women can't be too ignorant.Like the second wife over there, she is bold but has no taboos. She doesn't know what to do and what not to do. That's the root cause of trouble.Jia Yuanchun has been a concubine for several years, and Mrs. Wang is still white, this is the best proof.
A better woman is the kind of woman who can take care of her family honestly.So, don't think it's great that you wash clothes, cook and take care of your children, because in this world, this is the minimum requirement for a woman.Not to mention, when you marry a daughter from someone like the Jia family, you will definitely marry a girl and a woman as a dowry. As long as you have money, as long as you can afford it, you can use a girl if you want, and a woman if you want to use her. The in-law's family took it seriously, dismissed all the people they married without knowing the situation, and then exhausted themselves to death, that is a fool!
Of course, even if you don't have so much dowry, you can earn money and afford to hire people, you are also qualified to raise a group of maids and women, so that you can live comfortably, earn more money, and run a business for yourself. A better quality of life forms a virtuous circle and makes you live a better life.
A better woman, in addition to being able to take care of the house properly, can also deduce various trends from various clues of the court, and then avoid various risks.This kind of woman is often a good woman that Baijiaqiu seeks.
The best woman is on the basis of the former, has a zest for life, not only can adjust herself in a timely manner, but also can make others' lives happy, and can stick to her own heart when it comes to major events, and she will be happy when others don't notice. Many disasters will be eliminated invisible by means of spring wind and rain.
Jia Wan still remembers that when the Grand View Garden was being reformed, Jia Qi explained it to herself using the financial situation of Mrs. Jia Zhengwang’s family and the Grand View Garden as examples:
"...At that time, the rule over there would be proposed to be changed. The reason was that extravagance required frugality. The third girl had experienced the spirit. According to common sense, if it were me, anyway, there was a position with seven or eight hands over there. If I can’t find someone to do the work, I’ve already wiped all those seven or eight hands, and went directly to the one who can do the work. But that girl Bao didn’t. I don’t know if she really didn’t understand or she was fake. I don't understand, or is it because she feels that she has bought people's hearts now, and she will have time to clean up after she enters the house? I don't think she has ever thought about the income and expenditure situation there..."
Jia Qi told Jia Wan plainly that a woman like Xue Baochai who is so selfish that she doesn't even care about her husband and her family and only thinks about herself is taboo for any man.
In this world, there are always many women who think they are great for no reason, and there are also many women who have low self-esteem.
Xue Baochai belongs to the former, while Jia Yue, Jia Wan, Jia Xuan and Jia Han belong to the latter.
Who made them adoptive daughters?
Only Jia Qi can explain and analyze to them, tell them what to do when they encounter problems, and build up their confidence.Now, with this prescription again, Jia Wan knew very well that if something happened to her in the future, Jia Qi would definitely help her.Similarly, whatever happens to Jia Qi in the future, even at the risk of being abandoned by her husband's family, she will reach out.
This is not only the case for Jia Wan, but also for Jia Xuan and Jia Han, even the married Jia Yue.
Seeing Jia Wan, Jia Xuan and Jia Han looking at her with slightly red eyes, Lin Daiyu sighed slightly, and said: "The matter of family division is decided by the master, not us people can open the mouth." Lowering his voice, he said, "Actually, separating families also has benefits. Brother Qi has ideas. He wants to solve one problem: the flooding of the Yellow River, and the other is the livelihood of the people. But these two things, there is no big money and food. It can't be done. However, the imperial court doesn't have enough money and food, but there are a group of corrupt officials, so they can only deal with it passively. As for this family, Brother Qi is the youngest son after all, and they don't separate the family now. Not pretty."
According to the national law, such things as land must be passed on to the family, that is to say, unless Jia Lian and Jia Cong are dead, otherwise, according to normal procedures, even if the money is borrowed by Jia Qi, as long as he buys it in the name of Jia Amnesty Jia Lian should inherit [-]% of the land, and the remaining [-]% will be shared equally between Jia Lian's eldest son and Jia Cong and Jia Qi.
Jia Xuan said eagerly: "But, the national law..."
Lin Daiyu said: "National laws cannot be violated. When the family is divided in the future, the second brother will definitely get [-]% of all the land under the master's name."
Now Jia Lian has no son, so the remaining [-]% will be shared equally between Jia Cong and Jia Qi.
"Well, fourth uncle borrowed money from the treasury to buy it!"
Lin Daiyu nodded, and said: "That's true. Besides, the second elder brother Lian may not support so many refugees, so what the master means is that after the separation, Brother Qi will pay the original price in front of the master. Buy those riverbanks from the two brothers."
That is to say, in the end, Jia Qi will still get those river beaches, but he will have to pay again.
In addition, Jia Amnesty, Jia Lian and Jia Cong did not have to bear the money that Jia Qi borrowed from the court in his own name.
Jia Xuan exclaimed, "This is not fair to Fourth Uncle."
Lin Daiyu said: "But it complies with the law. And it was originally proposed by your fourth uncle."
There has never been absolute fairness in this world.
Yes,
According to common sense, since the land bought by Jia Qi is counted as Jia Amnesty's property, the shortfall should also be attributed to Jia Amnesty.But the fact is that there is still a law in this world that parents do not accumulate private property.According to this law, if Jia Qi buys land in his own name, he will definitely be impeached, so he can only buy land in Jia Amnesty's name.
In this way, the land purchased in the name of Jia Amnesty belongs to the property of the elders, and when the family is divided, it must be done in accordance with relevant laws.
And Jia Qi borrowed the money himself, that was his own business, and had nothing to do with Jia Amnesty.If the amount was small, Jia Amnesty helped Jia Qi pay back, that would be good, but like Jia Qi, a loan of 300 million, even if Jia Lian didn't open his mouth, those censors would impeach him if they knew about it.Therefore, Jia Amnesty helped Jia Qi repay the debt, and it was Jia Lian's interest that was lost.
This is not in line with the court's principle of protecting the eldest son.
Lin Daiyu also supports this.
Not only because it was Jia Qi's decision, but also because with her and Jia Qi's abilities, it was easy to earn 300 million.Instead of delaying the brotherhood between Jia Lian and Jia Qi's brothers and delaying Jia Qi's layout of the whole world for such a little thing, that is completely putting the cart before the horse.
Jia Han hesitated for a moment, and said, "In this way, our family's property has doubled."
Lin Daiyu nodded and said, "That's right."
"Then, what about the glass workshop?"
"Those workshops were originally on my Zhuangzi, and that shop is also mine, so it's my dowry."
Hearing what Lin Daiyu said, Jia Wan, Jia Xuan and Jia Han felt relieved.
Although Jia Qi seems to have been wronged on the land, as long as the glass is still in Jia Qi's hands, it is more important than anything else, and it is a treasure that is really making money every day.
Not only Jia Wan, Jia Xuan and Jia Han thought so, even Mrs. Xing, Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng and Jia Cong thought so.
There are no parents in the world who do not love their son, let alone Jia Qi crawled out of Mrs. Xing's stomach.
However, Mrs. Xing is not the kind of short-sighted person. She has long known that glass prescriptions, including glass workshops and glass shops, are the real money. Compared with glass prescriptions, there are also glass workshops. , everything else is trivial.As long as there are these things, it is only a matter of time before he wants to earn back 300 million taels of silver.
Therefore, Mrs. Xing is satisfied to be able to use the 100 million mu of land to leave the prescription and the workshop.
Wang Xifeng doesn't understand the law, but she knows good and bad.In her opinion, with Jia She's love for her youngest son, it's not surprising that she can't touch the place and the glass workshop and glass recipes at all.Not to mention, Jia Qi is much more capable than Jia Lian, and since he is in the cabinet, Jia Lian still needs his care.
Therefore, the land can be divided according to the rules, and after these lands are turned back, the father-in-law decides to let Jia Qi buy them, but the couple still get more than 200 million yuan for nothing?
What else could Wang Xifeng be dissatisfied with?
As for Jia Cong, he never thought that those fields would be worthy of writing.However, in this way, when he gets married next year, the private house in his hands can be doubled.Mrs. Xu's dowry and private house must belong to Jia Cong alone, that's for sure.Jia Cong would get 30% of Jia She's property at most. This is because Jia Lian has no son. If Jia Lian gave birth to a son in the coming year, or Mrs. Jia Shexing hatched another egg, he The portion will also be reduced.However, for this known part, Jia Cong reckons that he also has more than 30 yuan, and with this bet, it will be more than 70 yuan. Dowry, his own personal property is [-]!
How many people in this world have so much money when they are just adults?
Even if the prince opened a mansion, it would be nothing more than one prince mansion, two Huangzhuang houses, plus 23 taels of silver.
Less than half of Jia Cong's!
Mrs. Xing, Wang Xifeng, and Jia Cong, the people who are most likely to object, have no objections, so the matter is naturally decided.
Jia Amnesty began to run marriages for Jia Cong.
To be honest, people who knew Jia Amnesty's original plan were surprised.
According to Jia Amnesty's original plan, it should be that Jia Cong has participated in a test in the next year, and Jia Amnesty will run the wedding for him again.After all, Jia Cong was only 16 years old at that time.
It's not too early for a man to discuss marriage at the age of 16.
Of course, Jia Cong is only 15 years old now, which is not too early.
Jia Amnesty had just appointed his second daughter to the Xu family, and here he was going to propose to the Zhang family for his second son, and the Zhang family was also very surprised.
It's not because the two families are right, but because the two families are no longer right.Of course, it's not that the family status of the Zhang family is higher than that of the Jia family, but that the family status of Jia She's family is higher than that of the Zhang family.
At the beginning of the old Prince Yizhong's old affairs, the old man of the Zhang family was implicated miserably as the prince's young teacher. If the old man of the Zhang family hadn't resolutely sacrificed his life, the Zhang family would definitely be punished by the emperor like other families, and finally ended up The fate of copying and chopping all over the house.But even so, the Zhang family was hated by the Supreme Emperor, so they all had to retreat from the court and became civilians.Even if the Zhang family became filial piety later, they have left the center for three years, and they have no place in the court.
The Zhang family found out that the Supreme Emperor, who had no Zen throne at that time, was still angry with their family, and immediately adjusted the policy. All the children in the family should just pass the exam and resolutely refuse to take the exam.Those who used to be officials didn't try to make connections if they could.
All come to be squires.
The Supreme Emperor felt that Zhang's family had brought his son into trouble, and the Zhang family also believed that it was the Supreme Emperor who was attached to power and drove his son crazy to death!
It can be said that if the current emperor hadn't pardoned the old ministers and sent envoys to the Zhang family when he ascended the throne, the Zhang family might have preferred to be a teacher in the countryside.
However, even if the current emperor is very sincere, a few people from the Zhang family did not come here, and among them, the long house of the Zhang family still stayed in their hometown.Today, Zhang Jijiu who is in the Guozijian is the younger brother of the current head of the Zhang family.
The one Jia Amnesty proposed for Jia Cong was Zhang Jijiu's beloved daughter, Miss Zhang Shuya.
Zhang Jijiu now only has two sons and one daughter. He originally had an older daughter. Unfortunately, when the Zhang family was in the most difficult time, the girl was divorced by her in-laws, and the food and medicinal materials were given to her parents and younger brother. After working in the countryside, he worked so hard that he was exhausted and died young.
Miss Zhang Shuya got it after Zhang Jijiu, because she is her father's old son, and she looks very similar to her sister, so she is very loved by her family.
To be honest, when the Zhang family was in trouble, Jia Amnesty failed to show up in time, and only asked the people below to bring them 800 taels of silver. The Zhang family was not without grudges.Later, I heard that Mrs. Zhang's death had a lot to do with Mrs. Jia Muwang, and Jia Amnesty was like that, so this grudge became a suspicion.Later, when I saw Jia Lian like that, he had been married for a year or two, and he completely ignored his own uncle, and even treated his own father like that. He was obviously the son of everyone, but he actually ran errands for Mrs. Jia Zhengwang and his wife. Housekeeping.
At that time, not long after Zhang Jijiu returned to Beijing, he was very dissatisfied with Jia Amnesty, so that the relationship between the two fell to freezing point.
It can be said that if Jia Qi hadn't sued the imperial court, if Jia Amnesty hadn't separated Jia Zheng's family, if Jia Lian hadn't acquired the real shortage through Lin Ruhai, Zhang Jijiu wouldn't have re-examined Jia's family, and the relationship between the two families wouldn't have changed. break the ice.
However, this was not enough for Zhang Jijiu to remarry his daughter to Jia's family.
There's no way, that old lady from Jia's family is cheating!
With that old lady around, my daughter is just like his aunt and sister, she has a submissive and gentle temperament. If she really wants to marry her, she won't be swallowed alive!
I heard that Jia Lian's daughter-in-law is the same as her aunt when she was young! ! ! !
Then, he came to visit in person, and Jia Amnesty, who proposed marriage by the way, said directly that Jia Cong got married first, then Jia Qi, and when Jia Qi got married, the family could be separated.
When it's time to get ready, he's all ready.
What?
Zhang Jijiu really had a dazed face.
At that time, Zhang Jijiu was like spraying Jia She on his face: "Do you know, how old is your youngest son this year?"
What Jia Qi does is all good things that benefit the country and the people, but it is this kind of good things that will make the world envy and hate, because probably more than one person will think in his heart: "If I have so much money , I can do it too."
Although Jia Qi later proved with a glass mirror that he was indeed capable of earning money, others had such a deep impression of him that it was impossible to turn around in a short while.
How terrible the human heart is, no one knows better than Zhang Jijiu, who has gone from rich to poor, and then from poor to rich.
Jia Qi is really too rich, and now someone in the court already calls him the God of Wealth—not to mention that he always knows how to make money, and he also has a fiancée with a very generous dowry. Life is so golden! ——Countless civil and military ministers all hope that Jia Qi will be able to give birth to a series of daughters in the future...
_(:3ゝ∠)_
Jia Qi is rich, but the problem is that not only is Jia Qi rich, he also pays taxes honestly!Not only the land tax, but also the personal tax, no matter men or women, as long as they are old, he will help to pay, and even the population files, he has made them neat and tidy, not afraid of being checked.
For this alone, Zhang Jijiu admired him very much.
Hidden fields and hidden households have been a difficult problem for the imperial court since ancient times.Where does the extravagant life of a wealthy family come from if you don't hide from the fields?
Hidden fields and hidden households have always been the theme of the battle of wits and courage between emperors of all dynasties and noble families.
Why did the former dynasty openly allow tax exemption for those with meritorious deeds?That's because the problem of hidden fields and hidden households is too serious to be completely solved, so they choose to recognize the legitimacy, and can also draw the energy of the court and use it in other places.
This is also a very helpless choice.
Jia Amnesty is a lord, Jia Qi is a juren, the land in the hands of their father and son is not taxed, but Jia Qi still pays.
Jia Qi not only paid the taxes himself, but also paid for the refugees below.
This kind of behavior not only puts a huge burden on oneself, but also offends the civil and military ministers of the entire imperial court, and puts all the civil and military ministers on the fire!
Zhang Jijiu knew very well that when Jia Cong was in the Jinluan Hall and said loudly that he would not lose a copper coin in the taxes that should be paid, it was tantamount to standing on the opposite side of all civil and military officials.
If the emperor remembers him well, then he is naturally beautiful. Once the emperor expresses his dislike for him, I am afraid that all civil and military officials will unite to kill this kid!
Jia Amnesty is going to separate the sons now?
Zhang Jijiu can tell at a glance that this is a helpless move chosen by Jia Amnesty in order to keep the other two sons, Jia Lian and Jia Cong.
In fact, even if Jia Qi is dead, his property will still cause competition among the world.It is impossible to keep Jia Lian and Jia Cong brothers away from danger by distinguishing between families.
The only way to really get Jia Lian and Jia Cong out of danger is to separate Jia Qi from the sect!
It's a pity that Jia Amnesty is not as cruel as Jia Zheng, and Jia Qi is too young, so separating the family now is already eye-catching.If the sect is divided again, I'm afraid there will be another disturbance.
As long as Jia Qi is not separated from the sect, Jia Lian and Jia Cong brothers and their descendants who are likely to get the wealth behind Jia Qi will not end well.
Why is Zhang Jijiu willing to marry his daughter to Jia's family?
Marrying the Jia family's daughter is easy, anyway, the crime is not as good as marrying a daughter, as long as Jia Qi's wealth is not contaminated, it is really risky to marry a daughter to the Jia family!
Zhang Jijiu still didn't answer in the end, but sent Jia Amnesty out politely.
According to common sense, Zhang Jijiu said so, his attitude should be very clear, but Jia Amnesty still did not give up.
Jia Amnesty's idea is very simple. Of the few women he has known in his life, his original partner, Mrs. Zhang, is of the best quality, and his daughter Xianggu and Zhang Jijiu's daughter must also be good.Combined with the situation of each family, the Zhang family is also the cleanest, with the fewest things behind it.
Of course Jia Amnesty was willing to let Jia Cong marry Zhang Jijiu's daughter.
Zhang Jijiu refused to agree?
It doesn't matter, if he runs a few more times, the dowry will be fully paid!
Jia She's behavior soon alarmed the entire capital. Almost everyone who knew it knew that Jia She fell in love with Zhang Jijiu's daughter and wanted to marry his second son, but Zhang Jijiu refused. Xie Zheng is soft and hard.
Jia Amnesty's dowry gift prepared by Zhang Shuya also changed from [-] to [-] in rumors, and then from [-] to [-].
Before Wang Xifeng said anything about this, Li Wan in the Grand View Garden became sour.
Coincidentally, good news came from the Qi family that day, saying that Jia Yue was pregnant, and because she was less than three months old, she couldn't come to Jia Wan's engagement ceremony.
At that time, everyone greeted Jiamu in front of Jiamu. Wang Xifeng was the first to congratulate Jiamu and Mrs. Xing.
Mrs. Xing said: "Amitabha, although they say that their children are still young, don't worry. But girl Yue is not as good as you and Lian'er, childhood sweethearts. I only hope that she can have a boy at once. I got a son, and since then I have gained a firm foothold in my husband's family."
Li Wan suddenly said: "With the dowry of the eldest sister, can others still bully her?"
Mother Jia waved her hands again and again: "So what if the dowry is generous? If a woman doesn't have a son, she will grow old and miserable in the future. It's better to give birth to a son early."
Li Wan said: "No, someone should hurry up."
As he spoke, he looked straight at Wang Xifeng and smiled.
Wang Xifeng always felt that Li Wan had bad intentions for her, rolled her eyes, and was about to speak, but Mrs. Xing had already spoken before her: "What's the matter? Lian'er is busy! Now he is in charge of the cement business, Every day when I go home, I can hardly keep my eyes open, and my head is tilted to the side after a few words. This childbirth is not a matter of one person, so how can you blame Feng girl?"
He patted Wang Xifeng's hand again, and said: "This child also pays attention to fate, don't come in a hurry. You don't have to worry, eat well and sleep well, the most important thing is to take care of your body first."
Wang Xifeng immediately said: "My wife still loves me."
