By Jia Xiuzhen

Nanny Chang endured it, endured it again, finally couldn't help it, and said: "Actually, if you want me to tell you, the best way is to keep quiet and just pretend nothing happened."

Jia Lan stared at Nanny Chang, but didn't intend to refute.Nanny Chang nodded secretly in her heart, and continued: "Master Huan's temperament, how many ideas do we show here? I heard that in the wife's room, Caixia, Caiyun, Jinchuaner, Yuchuaner and other big girls were used Going around, asking for tea and water, and one time I was thinking about the seasonal fruits to be fed to the old lady. The result? The master wanted to teach me a lesson, but the wife stopped me, and even asked someone to share the melons in his own case. If you send it over, even Aunt Zhao is proud to ring the third master to win the eyes of the master and wife."

Li Wan felt chills on the back of his neck when he heard this, and reluctantly said: "Madam has always been charitable, just look at the third girl."

Nanny Chang said with a smile: "Grandma's answer is very good."

Li Wan's embarrassment is really a long-standing habit of living in the mansion, which cannot be changed for a while.Jalan lowered his head in thought.Madam Yan was so concerned about one thing and lost another, she really didn't know who to stop.

Nanny Chang said to Jia Lan, "What do you think?"

Jia Lan thought for a while, then said in a slow voice: "Third Uncle's behavior is really annoying. If he continues like this and no one disciplines him, I don't know how annoying he will be in the future. Mrs. He has no temper, but the old lady and master must not like him, with such a temper, he will not be able to make friends in school."

Nanny Chang nodded as she listened, and when she saw that he had finished speaking, she said: "My brother thinks well. Let me tell you another story. There is a village beside the official road. There is a child who has been naughty since he was a child, and his parents dote on him. Unable to bear the severe reprimand, a civil servant passed by in a sedan chair one day, and the child stood on a tree and urinated on the sedan chair. When the attendants wanted to scold them, the civil servant stopped them, talked to the child in a pleasant manner, and gave him a few copper coins.

Since then, the child has become more arrogant and indulgent, and the parents are also proud of it.One day, a military general passed by on his way. The child repeated his old tricks.The parents cried bitterly when they heard the sound, but they were powerless. "

Jia Lan was stunned when he heard that, Li Wan looked at Nanny Chang's smiling face, and felt that the cold on his back was even enlightened.Nanny Chang continued: "Grandma Shicai asked my brother how to determine whether a person is good-hearted or bad-hearted. My brother answered well. It's just like the civil servant in this story, do you think he is good-hearted or bad-hearted? If you look at it at that time, it counts. Doesn’t it count as being magnanimous and not caring about others? As for people’s hearts, there is a saying that “it’s hard to paint a dragon or a tiger, but it’s hard to know people’s faces but not their hearts.”

Regardless of whether this civil servant is well-intentioned or ill-intentioned, he did nothing to bring about such a result.My brother is still young, and there are many things in the world. If you can look farther, you can see the context of progress. Lao Tzu said, "Know the world without leaving the house, and see the way of heaven without peeping."

We assume that the civil servant would be extremely angry if he was pissed on the head by the urchin, but he did nothing, and finally gave the urchin such an ending.It is for 'doing nothing'.Why can't it be done?This child's heart and nature have gone astray, and if he can do this, his family education is also weak. If he does something wrong and is not punished, his courage will be even greater. His family is on the side of the official road, and there will be many people who cannot be offended, such as the strong and the strong.Children with such a mind and such a situation, there will always be a time of collision, and the time of collision is the time of death. "

After hearing this, Jia Lan asked, "Then if his family has moved away and is no longer on the official road, that's not the case."

Nanny Chang smiled and said: "Brother misunderstood the direction, everything in the world has cause and effect, but the seeds are in oneself. If, as Brother said, his family moved away, the child's disposition has not changed, and the arrogant People hate and have no self-consciousness. When I was young, no one would take it seriously because of my young age. What if I grow up? This civil servant has seen through the evil in the child's heart, and he can't destroy the evil. It is to let him increase the cause of evil. , Causal cycle, bro, think about it, what can happen to such a person who is constantly annoying people?"

Jia Lan thought about it for a while, then suddenly saluted Nanny Chang, and said, "Thank you for teaching me." Li Wan was surprised, and Nanny Chang also accepted the gift with a smile, but Nanny Yan couldn't help but sigh.

The next day, Jia Lan looked for the "Tao Te Ching", and Li Wan sighed in his heart that those three "Enlightenment Pills" back then really didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.As for the broken pocket watch, it could easily be repaired by Li Wan's method, but Jia Lan said no.Just such a broken watch, on the shelf in his study, I don't know what to do with it.Li Wan didn't delve too deeply into it, and took another enamel-painted silver-shell mother-of-pearl inlaid sapphire pocket watch for him.

Li Wan didn't know what Jia Lan remembered after what the daily nanny said. He didn't see him complaining to Jia Zheng, and getting along with Jia Huan as usual. Curious, he asked him, "You won't give birth to you now." Uncle Huan is angry?"

Jia Lan said: "I don't know why, after hearing what Mammy said, I am not so angry."

Li Wan nodded and said: "But you think he is also pitiful?"

Jia Lan shook his head and said: "Poor people must have something to hate, not to mention that Uncle Huan is so pitiful? It's just that, as Mammy said, self-seeding evil causes is just a watch to me, and I don't need to worry about it." Care about. Since someone wants to have such a temper, why should I stand up for him. Knowing that he has a bad temper, just avoid it, and I can't be that general."

Li Wan felt uncomfortable for a moment, Jia Lan was young after all, but she had already thought of this, because of Qiling Wan, and the helplessness of being born in a mansion.Small households in the market, at such an age, I am afraid that they are thinking about some snacks or playing with the children in the neighborhood, how could they have such thoughts.

After thinking about it for a while, he said to Jia Lan: "The two nuns have their own opinions, and they both have their own reasons. As for how to do it, you have to experience it yourself. I'm just telling you, don't be deceitful, and don't pretend 'Saints' or 'capable people' to do things that they really don't want to do." Jia Lan couldn't understand the words for a while, so he just nodded and wrote it down.

The turmoil has passed, and Jia Lan, as usual, practiced the art of correct soul day by day, while Li Wan helped him tonic by mixing soup and water.The only thing is, Jia Lan used to just read books by himself, or go through Jia Zhu's notes from the past, but now he talks to Nanny Yan and Nanny Chang every day, so Li Wan can only think that he is discussing knowledge.

When Jia Lian and Jia Rong returned home, the overall situation had been settled, and Jia Zhen scolded Jia Rong all over her head. At this time, she couldn't stay outside so much that she couldn't come back!Jia Rong said helplessly: "What can I do? After Second Uncle Lian met the people of Yu's family, he didn't care about anything. He just said leave it to me, but he didn't see anyone every day. It was so easy to finish the job, but he didn't know what to do with people. , came out with a disguise on his body and face, and dared to come back after resting for more than half a month."

Jia Zhen laughed angrily: "Don't push him all the time, you can clean yourself?! I know you are so happy that you are away from my eyes, and you have money in your hand. It's a fairy-like day! It's just you You have to use your brain too, what time is it now? I don’t know how important it is! Today I am too lazy to make a move, so I kneel in front of my ancestors!”

Jia Rong was also exhausted in Jinling, so she didn't have a high bed and soft sleeper when she rushed back, instead she knelt in the ancestral hall all night, and developed a high fever the next day.Youshi has never been able to talk, but Jia Rong's daughter-in-law, Qinshi, has suffered a lot. She finally looked forward to her husband's return, but she looked like this.

The circumstances of Jia Lian's life are different. In addition to bringing some fresh jewelry materials from the south with Sister Feng, there is also a box of gadgets for her daughter, and some money was leaked to supplement Sister Feng's private house.Jia Lian's trip this time was really an eye-opener, but he was tired of eating too much wild game, and when he came back to see his wife and daughter safe and sound, he felt a bit like the prodigal son returning home.Sister Feng naturally knows the truth and falsehood. Seeing Jia Lian's thoughtful thinking, although she doesn't believe that he can keep himself clean, she doesn't bother to pursue it when the love is strong.The next day Jia Lian knew about Jia Rong's situation, so he didn't dare to see Jia Zhen after all, but secretly thought that he was really lucky.

One day, Sister Feng was trying on the new jewelry brought by Jia Lian, and suddenly remembered, she said to Jia Lian in the mirror, "Have you heard about He Shengdao?"

Jia Lian was teasing the eldest sister, and replied absently: "What's the matter? It's not a drugstore, the business is not small."

Sister Feng turned around, hit him with a handkerchief, and said angrily, "I'm talking to you!"

Jia Lian said, "Baby, look at your mother, she doesn't like me talking to you."

Sister Feng glanced at him and said, "You're not serious! I heard that there seems to be not only a drug store, but also foreign merchants."

After Jia Lian heard this, Fang turned around and said, "We trade with foreigners. The medicinal materials are the bulk. It's not surprising that they have sticky tape. But why did you suddenly mention this one?"

Sister Feng asked the nanny to take the eldest sister out to play, and she leaned closer and said in a low voice, "The wife of the former son asked me. It turns out that this He Shengdao is related to the elder sister-in-law, and now he comes and goes frequently, from time to time. Something was brought here. I didn't care at all. That day I heard that Huan'er deliberately smashed Lang Ge'er's pocket watch. I heard from the people below that the watch was all enamel inlaid with rice beads, which is rare. Looking for someone again After inquiring, I found out that Taoist Hesheng's surname is Wu, and he is a distant relative of his sister-in-law's mother, and now he is not only involved in the business of the pharmacy, but also in the fleet outside."

Jia Lian listened and fell silent.Sister Feng continued: "Didn't you always worry about the Niu family wanting to get involved in the fleet? Now that the Bodhisattva is in front of you, why don't you rush to worship?"

Jia Lian laughed and said, "Stop bluffing me! If there really is a Bodhisattva, you are still waiting for me to worship! What the Niu family wants to get involved with is a big business firm specializing in foreign business, and there are several fleets under it. This sister-in-law's natal family is not obvious at all, and her maternal ancestral family has long since declined, so how big is the business with such an idea now? If it's so tight, I'm afraid she might rely on our family."

Sister Feng smiled and said: "You are exactly what your wife said. My wife just wanted me to be careful and see if there is anything I want to come to our place. At first I also wanted to come here, but ah, my sister-in-law eats shark fin and bird's nest every day. I'm so busy, how can I ask for help!"

Jia Lian said: "Hey, you delivered this small talk. It seems that the Wu family really sent a lot of things. Are you jealous?"

Sister Feng spat at him, "Screw your mother's shame! I can have such shallow eyelids?! I'm used to seeing it when I was a kid. It's rare!"

Jia Lian smiled and kissed her, and asked, "What did the wife ask you?"

Sister Feng said: "Ask about the Wu family. At first, I was worried about what my sister-in-law had agreed to. It was a mess, and it would cause trouble for the mansion. Later, when I saw that Lang Ge'er's food and clothing expenses became more and more extraordinary, I asked Inquire about the details of the Wu family."

Jia Lian said with a smile: "The details? Could it be that the wife wants to do business with the Wu family through the elder sister-in-law?"

Sister Feng squinted at him and said: "Will Madam be interested in this kind of business?!" Then she frowned and said, "But sister-in-law is getting more and more difficult to see through. Usually you can't see such a person, but now it's really eye-catching."

Jia Lian said: "How eye-catching? Could it be that the sister-in-law still wants to be a housekeeper?"

Sister Feng shook her head and said: "That's not true, she didn't bother to think about it. It's hard to say, it always seemed like there was no such person in the past, but now, let's say that a while ago, the old lady invited people to listen to the opera, and the elder sister-in-law was so handsome." Well, many old wives from other mansions praised her in front of the old lady, saying that she is a family style, saying that the old lady can take care of people. The old lady always likes to be grand, can you not be happy to hear that? It's just that the wife is a little awkward.

Besides, Lan'er is probably not even as good as Baoyu in terms of food and use.But people don't spend a penny in the public house, all of them are private houses. Those who had unrestrained gems were blocked by this sentence.It's obvious that the old lady and the wife prefer each other, but no one has anything to say about it if they don't use the public. Now it's good, it's the same when they have a nephew.

There is another thing that is incomparable to Baoyu. Lang Geer loves to read, but now it is said that his health is not good, and his sister-in-law cooks soup and soup all day long to make up for it.After a few days, the master called Lang Geer to the study to ask about it. He looked very dissatisfied, unlike Baoyu, when his father called him, his face turned pale and his hands trembled in cold sweat! "

After listening to it for a long time, Jia Lian didn't know what Sister Feng was going to say, so she had to continue: "Why is Lan'er the eldest son and grandson, so the cost is naturally not more than usual, and it's nothing."

Sister Feng was taken aback when she heard this, and said with a smile, "it's the same reason. Probably Baoyu is always in front. Now it's just a little unexpected."

Jia Lian said with a smile: "I think you are envious of sister-in-law who has an upstanding son. Come on, don't be embarrassed, I can't say anything else, this husband will definitely help you."

Before Sister Feng came back to her senses, she blushed and spat at Jia Lian again and again after hearing this.So flirtatious and delicate, how can Jia Lian hold back, it might be a charming room.
