Winning every step of the Red Mansion

271

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng spent a whole day discussing the separation, and although there was an extra episode in the middle, it still hasn't affected major events.It's just that the discussion is over, and it's just that Jia Zheng also went over the account book that was distributed to him, but the following days made Mrs. Wang so tired that she almost lost her shape.

On the third day after the separation, Jia Zheng received a letter from the foreign office, asking him to take up the post within two months. Jia Zheng had always attached great importance to this position, so naturally he had carefully planned the relevant matters after receiving the letter. After working in Beijing for a long time, many people came to congratulate him after receiving the letter. Jia Zheng was busy with this matter every day, and he felt a little incompetent.It's just that there is still a lot of trouble at home, and Jia Zheng didn't bother to talk about it, so he simply left everything to Mrs. Wang and the steward.

As a result, Mrs. Wang can be regarded as extremely busy every day: firstly, all the things in the accounts of the division of the family need to be counted, secondly, the relocation of the first room is also on the agenda, and things need to be tidied up, and thirdly, Jia Zheng's foreign office Luggage also needs to be prepared, and this is not counting the many things to be prepared for the Yuanchun wedding.Others don't say that they are taking care of these three things, even one of them at the booth is afraid of being tired.But maybe because these things are closely related to her, Mrs. Wang handled it with skill and skill that are rarely seen in ordinary times.Because of the Cui Xing incident, Mrs. Wang was much stricter to the servants around her this time. First, she dealt with it carefully, and then found out the reasons for all the things that didn't suit her, leaving only a group of people. She was loyal and loyal to her, and even the few servants sent by Shi Feier in the past were sent back by her.

Shi Feier doesn't think it's strange, after all, now that the family is separated, Mrs. Jia Zhengwang's one room in the mansion can be regarded as a guest, and staying in Lixiangyuan is only a short-term need. He will keep around those who are not faithful to him.These days, Mrs. Wang's family management skills are not bad, but some of the generals' families are refreshing.It's just that Shi Fei'er thought that if he had exerted his capable energy early on, he might not have achieved what he is today.But after thinking about it again, Mrs. Wang is like this now because she is now the real head of the family, and all her actions are self-interested, so she naturally cares about her heart, but earlier, she was thinking about how to get something for herself, and how she would pay for it. This thought.

In this turmoil of clan division and family division, Jia Zhu and Li Wan were the most calm.Jia Zhu seemed to be just going through the motions of such a major event, and he didn't care about the pros and cons, and then went to study hard in the study. Li Wan had listened to Jia Zhu's words early on, and took care of most of the things by himself. Even if you want to move, it doesn't take much effort.

As for Jia Amnesty, it seems that there is no joy after the separation, but it seems that a matter that has been accumulated for a long time has been settled, and then they are busy with whatever they should be busy with.Shi Feier looked at it coldly, but felt that these people are a hundred times stronger than when he came here before. It seems that everyone's experience is different for one thing.Life makes people learn to grow, and this sentence is true wherever it is placed.

Among them, there was only one person who was greatly affected by the separation, and that person was Jia Lian.For several days in a row, there was a look of displeasure on his face.Shi Feier looked a little surprised.For a day or so, when no one saw him unhappy, Shi Feier teased Jia Lian and said, "Seeing how unhappy you have been for a few days, don't you feel sorry for your father's family property?"

Jia Lian was holding the account book in a daze, and suddenly heard Jia's mother's question, and then returned to God: "The old lady is making fun of me again. Although I am rich, I like to come and go. Besides, according to the family rules It should be like this, how can I feel distressed. Besides, my master is not stingy at all, so why is it my turn to feel distressed? Old lady, don't make fun of me. "

Seeing his frankness, Shi Fei'er stopped teasing her, and said bluntly: "I've been looking at you these days and I've always thought about it, and I don't know what to worry about. You're still young, so why bother to lock yourself up all day long?" Brow. If your father sees it, I'm afraid I'll have to ask you again." Jia Lian shook his head and said, "Old lady, do you think there's a big difference between running a family and running a business?"

Shi Feier was taken aback and said, "Why do you ask this question?"

Jia Lian said: "I was quite moved when I saw the separation of the family. It's like a big tree. It's a pity to be split in two when it's growing." Shi Fei'er shook her head and said, "I just said you I don’t feel distressed, why do I feel that it’s a pity in a blink of an eye? Besides, if it’s true, it’s not a split in half, just cut off some branches of the tree. It’s just a big impact.”

Jia Lian looked at Jia's mother, then smiled and said, "The old lady is coaxing me again. The branches are cut off. Small trees are common, but big trees are rare. You see, if a thousand-year-old tree wants to flourish, it must have lush branches. The one that shades one side. I haven’t seen that the old tree cut off all the branches in order to make the trunk thicker. Even if there is, I’m afraid it won’t last long.”

Shi Fei'er smiled and said, "I said a lot, but you still have objections to this matter." Jia Lian shook his head and said, "I dare not object, because the ancestors precepts dare not make unreasonable opinions. Besides, not only my family, but even ordinary people It will be so. I have no objection to the points, I am only puzzled as to why they should be divided?"

"Let's not mention the ancestral rules for the time being. Let me ask you first, do you know the Tweet Order?"

"Tweet order?" Jia Lian turned his head to one side and said, "But the Tweet Order proposed by Zhu Fuyan during Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?"

"That's right, you read the history books, so you should know about this. Let me ask you, what do you think of this Tweet Order?"

Jia Lian frowned slightly and said: "At the beginning of the Tweet Order, all the enfeoffment of the princes and kings were against it, but the localities finally implemented it. This policy is beneficial to the imperial power. It eliminates the enfeoffment of the kingship in various places. I am afraid that the enfeoffment of the kings in various places will not be happy."

"I am not willing to implement it, but it can be carried out, which proves that this policy is in line with the minds of the majority of people."

"The minds of the majority?"

"Yes! Most people's selfishness. Selfishness is also human nature. Anyone can understand that the Tweeting Order is a weak division of the original entrusted royal power, but the royal power with rights will only belong to the lineage of the eldest son, and the rest of the concubine Compared with the royal power, the income is not even a share of meat and soup. But the Tweet Order and his party, at least the benefits of the king and grandson of the concubine can be much more than before, so naturally, there are many people who respond." Shi Feier paused He suddenly said: "Think about it, if you were in that position, how would you think about it? If you don't consider the emperor's order first, do you support this order of grace or oppose it?"

Shi Feier's words made Jia Lian deep in thought, and Shi Feier understood this very well. There is a saying in the world that the ass decides the head, and many people have a biased understanding of this statement.But in Shi Feier's view, what this sentence really means is that the position you sit in determines the way you think about the problem.Just like the Tweet Order, if you are a sub-king or an heir, you naturally don't want to be divided, but what about those grandchildren who have no hope of inheriting the royal power under the sub-king?The answer is self-evident.In the end, it was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Zhu Fuyan who saw through the selfishness of human nature.

Jia Lian pondered for a long time before saying again: "So the long-term union must be divided, and the long-term must be united. In the final analysis, it comes down to the word interest. Whether it is a family or a business, everyone has different thoughts and desires. It is also the same whether they want to separate or not. inevitable."

Shi Feier nodded: "You see this point thoroughly. It's really rare." Shi Feier continued: "This family rule is to protect the interests of the family, so I went to the branch, let the main branch To thrive, and secondly, to look forward to the fact that the branches will be able to form a climate of their own. If things go on like this, if there is a virtuous circle, they will gradually become one. But everyone has selfishness. Like twisting the hemp rope together or sweeping the snow in front of the door by oneself, it is up to fate."

Jia Lian nodded and said: "Old lady, Lian'er has been educated today. What I said today has opened up a knot in my heart that has been struggling for many days. I will sort it out later, so I can go to answer the prince."

Shi Fei'er was surprised and said, "What's the matter? Is it to answer that prince?"

Jia Lian smiled and said, "Old lady, let me tell you the truth, don't bother me."

"You can just say what you want, and I'll annoy you for what you're doing." Shi Feier said, "Could it be that you want to arrange me behind your back?"

Jia Lian waved her hands again and again: "How dare you arrange for the old lady to go. I manage the glass business for the prince Zhongjing, the old lady must know. But before he offered a road building recipe, the prince planned to let me take care of it. After I took over, I thought that the two functions tend to be in the same place, so I used a set of people to manage them. However, as time went by, I found that although it seemed good to put this thing together, it seemed that they could be separated, and there was no balance between left and right. , and because of the annoyance of the family division and the division of the family, I put it aside for the time being. Thinking about this matter today, and deducing the root cause of the division, I am even more confused. Today it is cleared, and I just looked at the old man Ma'am, you make a living in your hands, and there are many varieties, and now each one is considered to be well done, and it has grown like a big tree in the sky, but today I am thinking about whether it should also be branched?" Jia Lian glanced at Jiamu's face after finishing speaking. With a complexion, he said: "Old lady, I'm just saying that you have far-sightedness and naturally think more clearly than I do. What I said is like an ax in class."

Shi Feier smiled and said: "You kid, if you say that you draw inferences from one example, it will be regarded as looking down on you. You are sincere in what you said, and as you said, I do have my own plan. You can think of this plan. listen?"

Jia Lian nodded hurriedly: "Needless to say, old lady, you should stop being a fool. Lian'er wants to hear it."

Shi Feier said: "It's okay to tell you, but before that, I want to ask, you have selfishness, what is this selfishness?"
