Winning every step of the Red Mansion

148

Mrs. Wang learned that it was a month after the old man of the Xue family passed away, and the letter of mourning arrived together with the letter from her own sister.Although the old man of the Xue family left in a hurry, he still made the arrangements properly and clearly.My sister married the eldest son, so naturally most of the family business and the imperial merchant also belonged to his house.

In this letter, my sister is quite satisfied with the distribution of property, but feels that the world is difficult now, and the difficulty of making a living is not as good as before.In addition, mentioning his own pair of children is a compliment.Mrs. Wang naturally took the letter to ask Jia's mother for instructions, and just cook as usual.

Naturally, Shi Fei'er got the letter, but Dong Tong reported it to Mother Jia as soon as she got the news.In the letter, he also told Mother Jia to know the new behavior style of the head of the Xue family.It is said that he is only obsessed with elegant things, so that he can make friends with celebrities and clear customers, but he is not too concerned about this business.Shi Feier understood the letter after reading it.Now the decline of the Xue family is much faster than in the book.If so, I don't know if Aunt Xue would bring Xue Pan and Baochai to Beijing to seek refuge in Jia's mansion earlier?

Shi Feier sat alone, thinking wildly. He had been in this world for several years, and the four major families of Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue recorded in the book were somewhat different from the present, but there were no major changes.Although they are still related to each other, it has to be said that there are fewer connections than those in the book.In addition, I am quite gratified now that Jia She is now the head of the family and can support the affairs of the family, and the reputation of the family is quite good.

Now among the twelve beauties, Shi Xiangyun, Xichun and Qiaojie have not yet been born, and the rest are all there, it's just that some have been seen and some have not.It's a pity that Yingchun and Tanchun are still crawling out of whose stomach they should crawl out of.It's right to think about it, this is not something that can be changed by one's own intervention.This time, Shi Fei'er was curious whether Jia Huan would come out of Aunt Zhao's belly.Now this Zhao Cuixing can't enter the second school, but he is just a hard labor in the firewood room. If he can turn around again, Shi Fei'er can only feel the magic of fate.If this is the case, Shi Feier has no confidence in how much he can change the fate of these characters, and this fate is really unpredictable.

"Old lady, the elder is here." Yunhe came into the room to report.Shi Fei'er was a bit strange, he had only asked Ann this morning, why did he come again?

"Old lady, old lady." Jia She hurried into the room, saw Yunhe standing by and waited on him, but immediately shut up.Seeing it, Shi Feier felt a little strange, so she let Yunhe go.

"I just came here this morning, why are you here again?" Shi Fei'er motioned Jia She to sit down and said, "Every time if you don't come to say hello on a regular basis, something must happen. Tell me, what's going on today? Could it be your book "Ancient Times" Appreciation of Famous Inscriptions Rubbing and Printing Test" is about to be published? If you have books, bring me ten copies, and I will give them away."

Jia Amnesty didn't do it, and said anxiously: "The old lady said that the publication should be sent to you. Don't say ten copies, even a hundred copies will be fine." Jia Amnesty waved his hand and said: "Today It's not about this matter, I want to tell the old lady that this sister-in-law is going back to Beijing."

Hearing this, Shi Feier was taken aback. Five days ago, she received a letter from Jia Min, which only mentioned the scenery and customs of Yangzhou.He also said that if there is a chance, he would like to invite Jia Mu to take a look around. There is no word in this letter about returning to the capital?

"Back to Beijing? But another transfer?"

Jia She rubbed his hands, hesitantly said: "Old lady, don't worry, this matter might turn around."

Hearing what Jia She said, Shi Fei'er was startled, could it be that something happened to Lin Ruhai?Quickly asked: "Just say it straight, there's nothing I can't hold on to, and your hesitation makes me even more impatient."

Jia Amnesty hesitated and said: "My sister-in-law was accused of colluding with salt merchants and instigating him to drive up the price of salt; he was greedy for ink and accepted bribes to buy official positions; he oppressed local officials. The emperor was furious and sent someone to escort him back to Beijing for a closer interrogation."

These words naturally made Shi Fei'er stunned, and Jia She watched anxiously: "Old lady, this matter has not been convicted yet, so don't worry."

Rather than being anxious, it is better to say that I am wondering.Shi Feier couldn't turn his head around for a while. It stands to reason that Lin Ruhai should have a successful official career. According to the book, even if he finally died in office, it should be several years later.And if according to the book, everything is fine for Jia Min now, why did Lin Ruhai have an accident first?Shi Feier couldn't figure it out at all.

"Old lady, don't be in a hurry. I'll go and check it out. There is no conclusion yet. Even if my sister-in-law returns to Beijing, there will still be a trial. I know the character of my sister-in-law, and I think this matter must be serious." There are universes inside, let's wait for now." Seeing that Jia's mother was silent, Jia Amnesty hurriedly offered words of relief.

"How to deal with the family?" Shi Feier asked.

"This, I didn't mention it." Jia She said suddenly, "It's just following the routine, let's order him to stay in the mansion and not allow him to leave the mansion."

Shi Fei'er nodded, but this happened suddenly, but it was really serious. If Lin Ruhai was really convicted, then Jia Min, Ping Nan, Ping Hua, and Dai Yu's family members would be even more miserable.

"You should be more careful in the past few days. Lin Ruhai has been an official for many years, and he should understand the severity of the ups and downs. This happened suddenly. I don't know what's going on. Wait and see if someone sends a letter from Yangzhou to the house. Send it to me immediately. Then send some people to Yangzhou, don’t do anything else, be careful just in case.” Shi Feier frowned and confessed.

"Don't worry, old lady, I will take care of this myself." Jia Amnesty said again: "Although I don't want you to be anxious about this matter, I am also afraid that the news will spread wildly, and it will change when you know it. It will be even more urgent at that time. No matter what , don’t be in a hurry. I will let you know as soon as I have news.”

Shi Feier nodded after listening, there was really no rush for this matter.Just have to wait and see what happens.Jia Amnesty comforted Jia's mother again before leaving.Alone, Shi Fei'er thought about the whole thing carefully again, and found it even more strange.

The Lin family is not short of money, whether it is ancestral property or salary, Lin Ruhai is not small, and he has a business cooperation with Jia Min, which is also good, even Dong Tong's shop and bank Jia Min also have shares.After such a careful calculation, the Lin family will never be short of money.Besides, Lin Ruhai himself had seen it before, and he seemed to be a bit of a character, and he didn't seem to lose his principles for the sake of money.On the other hand, most of these crimes are linked to this money, neither lacking money nor loving money, why do such a thing?Shi Feier couldn't figure it out.Was he framed this time?Or being framed?Or is this Lin Ruhai really like this?Shi Feier couldn't think of a clue.

While Jia Amnesty was busy making arrangements, he sent people to Yangzhou to see if he could find anything.When Lin Ruhai was escorted to Beijing, it was already another month later.

Although Lin Ruhai was escorted back to Beijing, his family members are still in Yangzhou.When Jia She heard that he had already arrived in Beijing, he wanted to visit him, but because he was only a suspect and had not been imprisoned, Jia She had no choice but to send money.He spent thousands of taels to go out in vain, but he didn't even see his face.

At this time, everyone in the mansion knew about it, so they were in a hurry.Only Mrs. Wang was a little happy.I thought to myself, in the past, my family didn't get half of the benefits because of Lin Ruhai's promotion.What's more, Jia Min always overwhelmed her. If Lin Ruhai is guilty now, she must also become a criminal woman, and she will be very proud at that time.Now this big house is also very close to him, it's like a broken arm when this happened.But thinking of the rich family property in this mansion, most of them will return to the big house in the future, and I feel very distressed.

But now, although the big house has the upper hand in everything, but after all, his official career and official luck are average.Jia Amnesty is just a false job, and Jia Hu and Jia Lian haven't entered school yet, if they lose Lin Ruhai's arm, it will have an impact on Jia Hu and Jia Lian in the future.But his elder brother Wang Ziteng is quite good, and even this Jia Zhen has a smooth official career under his command.Now that Jia Zhu has entered school, it is very possible to go further in a few years, but it is a pity that this family business is too small and wronged. It would be great if there is a way to share some of Dafang's family business.

Mrs. Wang was thinking about it. It happened that Mrs. Zhu from the Ningguo Mansion came to visit with her grandson Jia Rong on this day.Mrs. Zhu is so smart, but she doesn't understand the calculations in Mrs. Wang's heart, and said: "You are also very sharp-tempered, and this housekeeper is also a good hand. It's a pity that you have no room to use it. But your Wang family has raised their daughters well. Wouldn't it be even more beautiful if we could get closer and closer?"

After hearing Mrs. Zhu's words, Mrs. Wang was taken aback.Seeing that she didn't understand, Mrs. Zhu said again: "Now Zhu'er and Hu'er are not too young, and they should start a family in a blink of an eye. I think you Wang's girls are good. It's a pity that Jia Zhen is unlucky. Who let him So much older? Jia Rong is too young, so it seems that she is unlucky."

This can't be more clear.Mrs. Wang naturally understands that if another daughter of the Wang family marries into Jia Hu's big house to be Jia Hu's daughter-in-law, she is her aunt, as long as she can handle her well, there will be a lot of benefits.After all, this big house will also belong to Jia Hu in the future, and at that time, the big house will also take care of itself.

Mrs. Wang's little calculation in her heart is not bad, but she can make her own calculations, how to marry the daughter of the Wang family into the big house is not her own decision.

Now that Mrs. Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Zhang are all around, it's not my turn to be an aunt to direct the arrangements for the marriage of other people's sons.Besides, there is a shrewd old lady over there, even if those two pass, she will not be able to pass this test.Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang was in a dilemma again.

"I just heard you praise the daughter of the Wang family, but how will others know. After all, it's good to be close to each other, but it's also difficult."

Mrs. Zhu smiled and said: "Looking around in front of my eyes, I am naturally familiar with each other. People are just close and close. If you want me to say that the number of daughters of the Wang family coming to the mansion is too small, otherwise I am afraid that the old lady would have been caught by the old lady." I'm thinking about it."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang had an idea in her heart.
