A New Biography of Daiyu in the Red Chamber

Yes, she nodded and said to Yinzhen: "I will be the first to donate, 300 million taels of silver, and I will put it in the account of the household department, and I will send the little plum to you later." Daiyu thought of those who were displaced by the disaster. The refugee felt very sad, and said to the fourth brother seriously: "Yu'er donated 100 million taels as the first shop of the emperor's merchant in Baihua Villa, and Yu'er donated 100 million taels as the princess. On the account, I will ask someone to send the 200 million taels of silver bills to the household department to be registered later," Yinzhen and Kangxi's eyes widened, although they knew that Yu'er was rich, but they earned it with great difficulty Hard-earned money, from this point, we can also see that Yuer is a kind-hearted person. Kangxi warmly beckoned to Yuer: "Huang Ama thanked Yuer for those victims, and Huang Ama will personally do it for Yuer." Inscribing a plaque, 'Xiande County Lord's Mansion', Daiyu thought that it would be such an honor for Huang Ama to personally inscribe the plaque for herself, so she knelt down and thanked the emperor: "Yuer thanked Huang Ama. "Kangxi's difficulty finally saw the sun, and he laughed happily in his heart.

Yinzhen led Daiyu back out, and sent Daiyu back to the princess mansion. He returned to Prince Yong's mansion non-stop to write a memorial, and he had to go to the household department later. He will be busy enough in the next few days, Daiyu Back home, Yanyu was waiting for her in the mansion, and asked in detail how to solve the flood situation, Daiyu told her brother the solution, and also said that she had donated 200 million taels of silver, seeing that brother Yanyu hadn't come out for a long time Daiyu thought that her brother was distressed, and said carefully: "Does my brother disagree with Yu'er's doing this? In fact, Yu'er did not do this to please the fourth brother and Huang Ama. Yu'er really hopes that the victims of the disaster will come back again." Back home," Yanyu woke up and rubbed Daiyu's hair: "Yu'er wants to go there. My brother lost his relatives since he was a child, and he knows how painful it is. Fortunately, he met his adoptive father later, so my brother thought Donate another one million taels of silver in your own name."

When Daiyu heard it, she really deserved to be Yu'er's elder brother, and happily shook her brother's hand: "Yu'er knows that my brother is as kind as Yu'er, if my brother goes to donate money, Yu'er will go with you, okay?" "Yanyu nodded, being overwhelmed by Daiyu's excitement, both brothers and sisters were very happy, Xueyan and Chunxian looked at the princess and the eldest son in disbelief, these brothers and sisters really don't take money seriously, the princess Donated 200 million taels all at once, and the eldest son wants to donate another 100 million taels, two prodigal sons, but they are happy in their hearts, who made them so kind, Yanyu took Daiyu's hand and ran out of the house "Let's go, my brother is staying with Yu'er in the mansion for half a day today," Daiyu smiled coquettishly, "Okay." For a while, the entire Princess Mansion was filled with joy and joy.

Yinzhen handed over the memorial, and the emperor immediately approved it, and sent people from the household department to assist Prince Yong in handling the donations. Everyone donated silver, ranging from the concubines of the emperor's harem, to the prince Beizi, the princess, the princess, and Daiyu's The 200 million taels of silver were also sent to the household department, and the emperor immediately gave Daiyu the title of "Xiande County Master". The tall jade plaque was written by Emperor Kangxi himself. In a disaster relief campaign, most of his wealth was donated to help the people in Jiangnan, and even a beautiful nursery rhyme was spread in the Jiangnan area. Everyone was full of love and admiration for this folk princess who had never met.

But the people in Jia's mansion are in a hurry at the moment, because as a disciple of the prince, the Jia family also wants to donate. If there is too much, it should not be too shabby. If it is too little, it will only increase the jokes of others. The mother and Mrs. Xing Wang were so anxious that they turned their heads like ants on a hot pot. Jia Zheng meant to donate 30 taels, but according to Jia He and Jia Zhen's intention, at least 50 taels of silver should be donated. Where did such a huge sum of money come from? Mother Jia really couldn't think of a way out. Later, she thought of Daiyu, but that girl would never give out the money, so she went to beg her. People, if you say you don't have much money, don't you just ask for trouble?Mrs. Wang thought that Baochai seemed to have some silver in her hand, so she hurried to Hengwuyuan. Baochai was the queen of the imperial merchants, so she naturally wanted to donate it. Only 3 taels of silver was donated, but Baochai still felt distressed for a long time because of this, the money was getting less and less, and now there is only less than 10 taels in hand, so I must use it carefully, otherwise I should How do you live, I am not that girl Lin, remembering what I heard when I donated money today, I want to let my aunt know about it later, so as to hinder her, otherwise how can I feel sorry for her killing myself Baochai's mother, a sneer appeared on Baochai's face.

Just thinking about Shener, Yinger's voice came: "Madam is here." Baochai was taken aback, and she really said that ghosts had arrived, so she hurriedly put the bank notes in her hand next to her, stood up and greeted her, "Auntie Why are you here when you are free?" Mrs. Wang walked in with a smile: "Is Bao girl strong?" Baochai nodded and ordered Yinger to serve tea. Mrs. Wang sat down. From afar, thinking that he was here to borrow money, he looked at Baochai with a busy smile: "Auntie is talking to you about something?" Baochai sat next to Mrs. Wang, waiting for her to speak, and Mrs. Wang spoke unnaturally. : "The emperor recently made a decree to donate money for the flood in the south of the Yangtze River. Your uncle and the others plan to donate 30 taels of silver, but right now there is a shortage of silver in the mansion. Bao girl originally had some money. See if you can lend it to my aunt, who will return it soon." is you."

Baochai didn't speak, she just stared at Mrs. Wang, she really wanted to go up and bite this woman, she really didn't feel pain in her back when she opened her eyes and talked, when will she pay back the Xue family's money, Mrs. Wang looked at Baochai and looked at herself He just knew he was in a daze, but he didn't say if there was any, and his face was a little impatient: "Bao girl?" Baochai came back to his senses, and said with a sweet smile: "Auntie, what a coincidence, it turned out that our Imperial Merchant Store also wanted to buy it. I handed it over, so I handed over the rest of the silver." Mrs. Wang didn't quite believe Baochai's words, she glanced at her a few times, and saw Baochai's expression was natural, and it was impossible to tell whether she was telling the truth or not. Then Mrs. Wang asked again: "Are you sure you don't have any?" Baochai nodded: "Auntie used to borrow money, but Baochai never gave it away, didn't she give it all? Now it's really a donation. , just like that, I was ridiculed by the officials and masters of the Ministry of Finance, saying that our businessmen are too cunning to donate more money, do you know how much money Baihua Villa donated?" Baochai paused here, Mrs. Wang anxiously waited for her words. She wanted to know how much money the rich Baihua Villa had donated. Baochai raised two fingers, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly said, "Did that girl donate 20 taels of silver with one mouth?" ?” Baochai snorted coldly in her heart, 20 taels, that’s the number your Jia family thought of, then raised two fingers, and said coldly, “Two million taels of silver.”

One sentence shocked Mrs. Wang so much that she almost fell off the couch, stabilized her body, and asked again: "How much silver do you think she donated?" Baochai repeated it heavily: "My aunt heard it right, it was 200 million yuan. Two silvers, at first I thought it was the official who said nonsense, but who knows that her name is registered in the Ministry of Households, she donated 100 million taels in the name of Baihua Villa, and donated another 100 million taels in the name of the princess, In this way, she donated 200 million taels." Mrs. Wang opened her mouth so big that it could hold an egg, she was so angry that her face was distorted: "Didn't she finish all the troubles in Baihua Villa?" Baochai smiled. Said: "My aunt doesn't understand now. The business of Baihua Villa is very big. With her usage, how many times can she use it? Do you think they don't donate anything else? That boy Lin donated another 100 million taels later, The brother and sister donated a total of 300 million taels, they are the brothers and sisters who donated the most in the entire Qing Dynasty, the emperor immediately gave her the title of "Xiande County Master", and her status will be higher in the future, so we will not be in her eyes even more. "Mrs. Wang is such a heartache. You explained that the money should have flowed into Jia's mansion, but now it's flowed outside. I was so angry that I stood up and left, and I didn't mention the matter of borrowing money from Bao girl." .

Mrs. Wang rushed to Jia Mu's room in a hurry. Jia Mu knew where she was going to Bao Yatou, and thought it would be good if she could borrow some to make up some money. Now Mrs. Wang's expression is ugly At the limit, she knew that she hadn’t borrowed any money, so she didn’t look at her, and glanced at everyone in the room. The two wives of King Xing, Jia Zhen’s daughter-in-law You Shi, and Sister Feng, Jia’s mother said: “Everyone, don’t do it. Sit down, think of a way to get some out first, otherwise sitting down is not the way to do it, let’s start with my old lady, I will take out some old things to exchange for silver later, don’t point at the moment It's 50 taels or 30 taels. Let's exchange it first to see how much money we can make up. Everyone was speechless. The old lady asked Yuanyang to unlock and fetch some things. The lady naturally took out some of her private possessions. In the past, these were good things, but for a while there was a pile of them on the table, lifelike, and the whole room was shining brightly. These things are worth a lot For silver, it’s just that they are living as pawnbrokers now. When will this Jia’s mansion be big? Jia’s mother couldn’t help worrying for a while. Mrs. Wang looked at Jia’s mother and said in a low voice: “The old lady knows that the princess donated money at this moment. How much money did you pay? "

When Mrs. Wang mentioned Daiyu, Jia's mother naturally asked with concern: "It's just a few hundred thousand taels of silver." Distressed, but she didn't want Mrs. Wang to shake her head: "It's just a little bit. Princess Daixin donated 10 million taels of silver notes this time, and that boy Lin donated another 200 million taels."
