The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman

To say that this Jia’s house is worthy of being the place where the plot takes place, new things about Jia’s house are just one after another, and only then did I hear the saying of “a good match”. The account book of the second room of the family.

OMG!

This, this, this...

Those who heard the news were terrified.Damn, let a girl from a relative's house who lives at home help housekeeper!Isn't this slapping yourself in the face?Now, where are Mrs. An and Wang Xifeng from the second bedroom?

Fortunately, Mrs. An's natal family has been empowered, and Wang Xifeng has to be busy with her husband and children. Otherwise, if such an incident happens, both natal families will be offended by Jia's family!

There is nothing that Mrs. Wang can do!

Ever since she took the account book of the second bedroom back from Jiamu under the pretext of building a grand view garden, she has been feeling very fond of it.

First of all, it's about the Chinese New Year, New Year's ceremony and so on. In fact, it's easy to say, you can change your left hand for your right hand. No matter how bad it is, there is also the warehouse in the public house. It's almost the same after a little flipping.But, beyond that, there are plenty of places to spend your money.

Although the village has sent rent and all kinds of game and so on, these ordinary things only need to be eaten once or twice, and they cannot be placed on the table during the Chinese New Year.According to the buying practice of the Jia family's servants, the money spent on banquets alone costs at least a few thousand taels of silver in a year.In addition, there are other rules. According to the rules, when the Chinese New Year is coming, a few boxes of auspicious patterns of gold and silver will be stamped on the house, and these will cost thousands of taels of silver.

Not to mention the rules that the servants should have during the New Year, because it is the end of the year, and what they need is cotton clothes, which are much more expensive than single clothes, and there are head jewelry and so on... Mrs. Wang listened to the steward's report and looked at it. The examples from previous years on the account book, I just feel upset.

If Mrs. Wang talks about viciousness, she will be cruel.I don't know how many blocks Wang Xifeng has dumped, but when it comes to housekeeper's methods, she is far behind, especially when it is still difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, she has insufficient methods, and she has to show a tolerant and magnanimous Buddha face.

The people under his command all knew Mrs. Wang's skills, so they took advantage of her time as housekeeper to try their best to get money out of their own pockets. They were used to being slippery.When you start to do things, push two, five, six, and become corrupt, it is called a scramble for the first.Mrs. Wang was overwhelmed by all kinds of messy reports, such as reports of damages and price increases. She didn't know how much money she had spent in it.Looking at the public accounts that had no money before the Chinese New Year, she had a headache.

But when the family was separated back then, the eldest room and the second room agreed to give Jia Mu 2000 taels of silver for each room every year, and let her use it.For other things, the big room and the second room have nothing to do with each other.Since Jia Mu favored the second room, the 2000 taels of silver from the second room were not actually given to Jia Mu.If it weren't for this, Mrs. Wang would still have a headache!

Erfang has been domineering in Jia's family for many years, and what he pays attention to is a big show.Just look at Jia Baoyu's style, and you will know that there are four big maids, four second-class maids, and countless little maids around her.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

Erfang has enjoyed so many years of ostentation.Even after the separation, this way of doing things has not changed.Therefore, the Jia family presents two strange situations.The second room is extremely extravagant, and the first room is simple and simple...

But in this way, Mrs. Wang does not have the housekeeping skills of Wang Xifeng and Lian's Second Mistress, so there are too many people and expenses, so naturally it pales in comparison!

So after waiting for the new year, Mrs. Wang hurriedly pushed out the housekeeper's affairs.

However, what is more strange is that Jia Tanchun and Xue Baochai are actually assisting the housekeeper.Jia Tanchun has also reached the age of marriage, learning to be a housekeeper, there is no problem, now that Jia Yingchun is married, Jia Tanchun's marriage will naturally be brought up! .

The problem is Xue Baochai, let a girl from a relative's family who lives at home help the housekeeper!The Jia family became the talk of the people again, and Jia Lian was so angry that he almost ran to the second room to beat and scold Mrs. Wang!

In fact, Mrs. Wang was also a little helpless. Mrs. Wang misinterpreted Jia Yuanchun's words back then, so she gave Aunt Xue a letter of approval, saying that the virtuous concubine in the palace had agreed to Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai's marriage to reassure them. If there were no Mrs. Wang's words, Aunt Xue would not give money to Mrs. Wang so happily.

Originally, after Xue's family inquired about Shi Xiangyun's marriage years ago, the historian thought that Xue Baochai's position as the second grandma was secure!But I didn't expect that Mother Jia had another trick!

The historians, Wang family, and Lin family have no suitable candidates!This is the truth, but it doesn't mean that Mother Jia is really at the end of her rope. She won't agree to the marriage until the end, otherwise, in the original book, Mother Jia wouldn't have asked Zhen Jiasan Miss's birthday horoscope, and Xue Baoqin's birthday horoscope.

Although these two people have no chance to appear in Jia's house, it does not mean that Mother Jia has no other candidates.Jia's mother's mother is the daughter of Ma Kui, the ruler of the country. Although the Jia family dislikes the poor and loves the rich, such relatives are still leaving. Knighthood.

It just so happened that there was a girl in the Ma family who was about the same age as Jia Baoyu, so Mother Jia used the excuse of being a relative to take the girl Ma to stay in Jia's mansion!Now the Ma family has been deprived of their titles, and their children and grandchildren are not very up-to-date, so people like the Jia family have caught their eyes. Fuxing, a daughter is nothing.

As soon as they knew that the girl from Ma's family was coming to live with Jia's, Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai immediately understood Jia's mother's attitude. No matter what Xue Baochai was doing, Jia's mother just looked down on her.To put it bluntly, the girls from the Ma family are no match for Xue Baochai now!

After all, no matter what Xue Baochai said, there is still a lot of dowry!As for the girl from the Ma family, the family is now a commoner without a title, and the money is definitely not as much as that of the Xue family. Naturally, this dowry is no match for Xue Baochai!

It was because of Mother Jia's trick that drove Xue's family to a dead end. Aunt Xue was going crazy recently. She ran to find Mrs. Wang every day, and Mrs. Wang dared not see her. In Madam Wang's eyes, Aunt Xue, who had always been her follower, started threatening Madam Wang without hesitation.

Okay, if you don't want to, that's fine, I'll take the IOU and go to the Yamen to sue you!Hmph, I don't believe it anymore, with a few 10 taels of silver, let alone marrying my daughter, even if I find a door-to-door son-in-law for my daughter, those who want to do it can line up from the south of the city to the north of the city!

Once an honest person gets ruthless, few people can stand up to it.

What's more, after all, Aunt Xue is a girl from the Wang family. Even though she usually looks a little dull, she is actually a thoughtful person. She holds a lot of secrets about her sister, Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang's daughter is a concubine, and the entire Jia family may not be able to accommodate her.

For example, when Mrs. Wang was the housekeeper, in order to earn money for her private house, she sold the ancestral property in Jinling under the name of natural disasters. In fact, she sold it to Aunt Xue at a low price. After tossing, the public property became the private property of the two sisters. Moreover, Mrs. Wang also seized the fertile land and arranged lawsuits. Some of them happened in Jinling, and the two sisters did it together.

There are quite a few similar things. Some of these things were exposed by the big house, but there are still some things that are not there, aren't they?

Moreover, Aunt Xue once provided Mrs. Wang with a very hidden antidote. Mrs. Wang used this to abolish Aunt Zhou, who was once very favored in the family and almost gave birth to her child before her, and turned into a wooden figure.

With so many clues, Mrs. Wang has nothing to do with Mrs. Xue now, so she can only follow Mrs. Xue's intentions while racking her brains to find a way to get those IOUs and other things from Aunt Xue. Get it back there.

Although Mrs. Wang wished that the Xue family would disappear immediately, but she was short-tempered for eating people and short-handed for taking people. The Jia family lost the huge windfall contributed by the Lin family. , and borrowed several 10 taels of silver from the Xue family.Even, many of the bricks, wood, soil and rocks used to build the garden belonged to the Xue family, and they have not paid for them. These are all documented, even if they are signed in the name of Mrs. Wang, but most of the Jia family know it. Even some servants know this in their hearts.

Using other people's money, but wanting to leave them aside, this is really not pleasant.

So when Mrs. Wang saw the account book again, she had a flash of inspiration and had an idea.

In fact, Mrs. Wang planned to give the account book to Wang Xifeng at first, but Jia Mu said that Wang Xifeng still had to take care of Jia Zhu and Jia Gui, and had no time and energy.Even if Mrs. Wang had given up on Jia Zhu in her heart, she couldn't show it clearly, otherwise Jia Zheng would be the first one who wouldn't spare her.

However, Mother Jia proposed to hand it over to Jia Tanchun. Seeing how well Jia Yingchun married her son-in-law, Mother Jia was also a little moved. If she could marry Jia Tanchun to a good place, it would also be a help to the second wife.

But Mrs. Wang doesn't think like Jia's mother. She only thinks that Jia Tanchun's biological mother is Aunt Zhao, and her stepmother is Mrs. An, both of whom are Mrs. Wang's enemies.If Jia Tanchun came out, he would not help these two people back up and suppress himself.How could Mrs. Wang allow such a thing to happen!That's why it happened that Xue Baochai was in charge of the account book of the second house.

One is to promote Xue Baochai and Jia Tanchun to fight in the ring, and the other is to give Aunt Xue an explanation. See, I have let Xue Baochai manage the account books of the second room. What do you think?
