Jia Baoyu is Jia's mother's eyeball, how could Jia's mother know that Mrs. Wang hates Daiyu so much and let Baoyu be caught between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to be wronged.She didn't care about things for a long time, that's because she didn't have anything to worry about.Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng dealt with those trivial matters, so they couldn't reach her eyes at all.

As the daughter-in-law of the historian, the daughter-in-law of Duke Rong Jiafa, and the most legitimate hostess of the Rongguo Mansion since the establishment of the mansion, even though her heart is getting softer as she gets older, when it comes time to make a real decision, Mother Jia is still relentless. hesitate.

That day when Jia Lian was crying poor, Jia's mother sent her confidant woman to count the warehouse.She didn't say anything and never thought that the Rongguo Mansion's family fortune would be so small after only three generations.At least three-tenths of the things registered in the register alone cannot be found, let alone those that are not in the account.

The annual farm income has dropped sharply from 2 taels when she was a housekeeper to less than 1 taels now.The operation of the shop outside is also deteriorating, and the monthly net income is not even 5000 taels.The monthly expenses of the Rongguo Mansion are at least 8000 taels. Even if the salaries and ice charcoal money of Jia Zheng and others are included, the monthly expenditure is greater than the income.

The situation in the Ningguo Mansion is similar, that's why they built a garden and couldn't even make up the cash.After this massive construction work, the cash in the mansion was completely emptied, and life would only become more and more difficult in the future.When she closes her eyes, the expenses of the big family will probably squeeze Lin Daiyu again. In addition to the 50 she took out, Daiyu still has Jia Min's dowry and the remaining 20 taels of silver.

That's all for Daiyu, but the money is also the proof of Jia Baoyu's future life.Jia's mother can't imagine that her baby Jinsun has no money to live on, so for Baoyu and Jia's harmony, there is no other way to go, only to separate.

Of course, when Jiamu was alive, the family would not be divided. As long as she was alive, no one could bully Baoyu.Even if Mrs. Wang wanted to trouble Daiyu and put Baoyu in trouble, she would protect her.But even Nanny Lai, who has been with her all her life, is falling for Mrs. Wang. If she leaves, Baoyu and his wife will definitely not be able to please her.So before she dies, this family must be divided, and it must be completely divided.

"Complete division?" Dai Ke recalled these three words, "Could it be that the old lady means... not only the first room is separated from the second room, but also the second room is also divided?"

Daiyu nodded, "That's what it means. I don't want to mention the second master Lian is the only one in the big house. The old lady in the second room has to be divided into three parts. Sister-in-law Zhu brings Brother Lan one part, Baoyu one part, and Brother Huan also counts. One piece. Sister-in-law Zhu is the head of the family, and there is no head of the family, so the wife must follow them. If we split up like this, the wife can't control me at all except for the holidays."

"The old lady is thoughtful, but this family may not be divided. She only wants to separate you from your wife so as not to hate each other, but she didn't consider this division. The wife is also going to move out to find another place to live, madam Will you be willing? According to me, if the old lady really brings it up, the wife will oppose it even if she tears her face."

But this matter is not completely unreliable, at least Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng must agree to the separation.Wang Xifeng may be concerned about her relationship with Mrs. Wang and will not say anything on the surface, but she is afraid that Mrs. Xing is still looking forward to the separation of the second room.

In today's Rongguo Mansion, the second room is almost eating and not working.With Jia Zheng's salary, he couldn't even support his own tenants. If such a large amount of expenses were reduced, Dafang's life would be improved by more than 01:30.

"It's hard to say. The old lady also said that the separation of the family must not be mentioned now. When she feels unwell in the future, she will invite the elders of the clan to open the ancestral hall together. The wife will not behave unvirtuously and filially in public and be criticized by others. When Jing Daike said this, Daiyu also hesitated a little.

"Anyway, it's still too early to say anything. Maybe after a while, my wife realizes that the Rongguo Mansion has been emptied, and she turns around to please you and coax you to spend money for her to enjoy?" Heart, if there is a day, Mrs. Wang will definitely do it.

"If that's the case, the old lady doesn't have to worry about the separation of the family." Daiyu was completely different from the little character in front of Baoyu at this time, and said quite generously, "Father said before that if you lose money and avoid disaster, If the wife's knot can be solved and the family will live in harmony, it's worth giving up some money."

"I'm afraid that I'm not greedy enough. I want 500 taels today, and 1000 taels tomorrow. In two days, I'll tell you that you are young and ignorant, and she will keep it for you and empty you out. Well, I still want to find a day I will hand over the money left by my father to you. Look now, let me continue to keep it, lest you get impulsive that day and send it all away to 'break the money and avoid disaster'."

Dai Ke has always known that Daiyu doesn't value money. On the one hand, she has never been short of money, and on the other hand, she treats people generously, which can be seen from the way she treats people around her on weekdays.It's just that some people are different from slaves. It's normal for her to do what she does if you give her money, but it's a crime not to.

"Don't think too badly about people. No matter what my wife said, she came from the royal family of Jinling, and her eyelids are not so shallow." Daiyu was really helpless to her younger sister, no matter what happened, she always wanted to go to the bottom Bad place to think.Although it later proved that most of them were expected by Dai Ke, it is not a good thing for Dai Ke to always speculate on the dark side of people's hearts.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you. Then you will know if what I said makes sense. I'm not here to displease you. Grandma Xiaorong is coming this afternoon, so I'll go get ready."

…………

A few days later, there was good news from Lixiangyuan that Baochai's marriage had come to an end.The Zhenyuan Hou Mansion has already invited a matchmaker to come to propose marriage, and Aunt Xue also nodded.Not to mention that the two parties had exchanged Geng posts, the betrothal gift from the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion was even more generous, even Aunt Xue who had seen a lot of money would be astounded.

"Miss Bao's marriage is really good, and the Mu family didn't underestimate her business background at all," Xiren, who came to beg for tea, counted with Dai Ke, "a total of fifty catties of wedding cakes, eight types of seafood , three animals, fish, wine, tea... the rules are not bad at all, you must know that there are few companies that can prepare such a complete set now."

"Not to mention that there are two farms on the dowry list, two shops with quite good income, several sets of exquisite hairdresses, and an unknown amount of money," Xiren sighed enviously, "...not less than 2 For the dowry gift of Wanliang, Miss Bao's life is really good."

"For a dowry of 2 taels, the dowry should at least not be less than 2 taels, right?" Dai Ke, who is rich and powerful, doesn't think 1 taels is a big amount, but she also knows that even if a duke marries a daughter, a dowry of [-] taels is not too small. You must know that the dowry left by Jia Min is only a little over [-] taels, and this also includes the income that the farm has been increasing over the years.

"Mrs. Xue's family is an imperial merchant, so 2 taels is not a problem. Besides, according to what I heard, Mrs. Xue is planning to double the dowry! Miss Bao is Mrs. Xue's only daughter, and Mrs. Xue can't bear her being in her husband's house." Wronged. It's only 4 taels of dowry... I really don't know what kind of splendor I want when I get married."

Dai Ke looked at Xi Ren with a half-smile, since Bao Dai's marriage was settled, Xi Ren often came and walked around.Needless to say on Daiyu's side, Xiren, the future mistress, would bring snacks, fan covers and other small things made by herself to please her every few days.Even Dai Ke is not unsatisfied, now she has flower arrangements sent by Xi Ren in her room, and the rose dew that Xi Ren specially saved is kept in the cabinet.You know, that rose dew was given to Xiren by Baoyu from his share.

"Sister Xiren hates marrying too. Why don't you envy Sister Bao so much?" Dai Ke picked up a pine nut from the plate and gently opened it. "By the way, sister is two years older than Baoyu? When Nian Baoyu got married, my sister missed the flowering period."

"You're talking about Miss Bao, why did you actually make fun of me?" Xiren took the plate to his hand, "Leave me alone with these foul words, Second Miss, don't hurt your hands."

Not long after, Dai Ke had a handful of peeled pine nuts in her hand.

Dai Ke knew that Xiren wanted to gag her mouth with food, and she didn't intend to continue on this topic.Attacking people is Baoyu's internal appointment, and how to deal with it is Daiyu's business.Today, Xiren bumped himself into her gun, and she only tapped a few words to let her recognize her identity.

"I'm not just here today to talk about gossip." Xiren was naturally happy when he saw that Dai Ke didn't bother her anymore. "In two days, it will be the twelfth day of February, Miss Lin's birthday. Our Second Master Bao hastily went. I begged the old lady, saying that I want to do a good job for Miss Lin."

"Now my sister and I are both in Xiaozhong. It's good to have a bowl of noodles on my birthday. How can I make a big deal? Isn't Baoyu an idiot?"

"It's about Miss Lin, how can Baoyu not care about it. What the second girl can think of, but he can't think of it. What he and the old lady asked is that the old lady take the girls and brothers of our family to go to Yongfu Temple to pay incense and fulfill their vows that day. Firstly, the girls have been locked up all winter, so they should go out for a walk, and secondly, they just borrowed flowers from the Suzhai of Yongfu Temple to present Buddha, which is considered to be a celebration for Miss Lin's birthday."

"If you had made it clear earlier, I would have understood. On February [-]th, it should happen to be the second scene of Chunxi. Baoyu is not going to hide out. He is not going to celebrate his sister's birthday here, and he is using her as a cover What!" Deke suddenly realized.

Usually, Jia Zheng thought that Baoyu was not pleasing to the eye, but when the spring opened, all the scholars gathered in the capital.Jia Zheng couldn't help thinking of Jia Baoyu's sluggishness, so he called Jia Baoyu over to reprimand him;In order to avoid Jia Zheng, Jia Baoyu bluffed the old lady to go to Yongfu Temple in the suburbs of Beijing.

"It's good for the second girl to know it in her heart, but don't say it in front of Baoyu. If Baoyu is annoyed, she will inevitably turn upside down again." Xiren is ashamed of Baoyu. Every spring and autumn, Baoyu tries to hide from Jia In the future, I am afraid that it will be unavoidable to celebrate Lin Daiyu's birthday outside every year.
