Chapter 1518 Xin Zi Juan is still reading it

The news of Feng Ziying's entry into the mansion spread quickly in Rongguo Mansion. Not only the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but also Zhujin Tower, Qiu Shuangzhai, Daoxiang Village, Lotus Champs, and even Lu Xueguan and Zhuocui'an were also paying attention. .

During this period, Feng Ziying became a hot figure in the capital city again as Feng Fucheng of Shuntian Prefecture, following the reputation of Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan, triggering waves of pursuit.

The detection of the second Jingtong case was enough to bring Feng Ziying's reputation to a higher level. The subsequent sales conference became even more famous, attracting the attention of countless people both inside and outside the capital and south and north of the Yangtze River.

Later, tickets to the Grand View Tower were hard to come by, and people with a little bit of status and fame were all proud of being able to attend this sales event. Even if they didn’t buy anything, as long as they could attend and sit in that venue, it was a kind of status. Symbol, if you can raise one more sign, even if you are just joining in the fun, it will be enough to show your face in front of the prominent officials and nobles in the entire capital city and even the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Some good people have specially calculated the income from these rounds of sales, reaching more than three million taels of silver. Although this is the income of the imperial court, it still aroused heated discussions among countless people. From the various anecdotes of these corrupt and corrupt officials, From the bizarre stories of these objects to the future uses of these silver coins, they can attract everyone's attention.

Whether it is a major newspaper such as "Today's News" or a tabloid magazine that has taken advantage of traffic such as "Northland Business Daily" and "Guan Jiangnan", which are far less famous than "Today's News", they all took this opportunity to make a fortune. existence, sales have increased a lot.

Several court ministers and Xu Hongjun, who had already become an official, suddenly became popular figures. Many people presented heirlooms from their homes for their appreciation, and the business of several shops also improved a lot.

Of course, the heated discussion in the capital city will also be transmitted to the Rongguo Mansion. As life becomes increasingly sad, everyone in the Rongguo Mansion is particularly worried about the Jia family's current decline.

Because not only the situation in Rongguo Mansion, but also in Dongfu, that is, in Ningguo Mansion, seems to be even worse. Jia Zhen's lack of attention to business and Jia Rong's running around like a headless fly make the situation in Ningguo Mansion even worse than in Rongguo Mansion. So much so that the servants from Ningguo Mansion came to persuade the servants from Rongguo Mansion to think about the possibility of finding another way out.

Now the elders of Rongning's second house also like to lament the glorious history of the four families of Jia Shi Wang Xue Jinling decades ago. Compared with the current situation of the four families except the Wang family, which is relatively good, the rapid decline of the other three families makes them sigh with emotion. , that’s it for the Shi and Xue families. After all, they don’t have much to do with each other, but the Jia family is related to the livelihood of our whole family, so we can’t care less about it.

After seeing the Xue family sisters marry into the Feng family, although the Xue family no longer has the atmosphere of "good years with heavy snow, pearls are like earth and gold is like iron" decades ago, it has also changed a lot from a few years ago, which is a bit... The son wants to revive the family tradition.

Xue Pan, known as Xue Da Fool, now owns shares in Daguan Tower. He earns a lot of money just by paying dividends every year.

Xue Biao traveled between the south and north of the Yangtze River, operating fleets and maritime trade. It is said that he became the spokesperson of the emerging maritime trade forces in the north.

Everyone knows that if it weren't for Uncle Feng's support from behind, where would the two junior members of the Xue family get their turn? Uncle Feng even took the initiative to bring Miss Qin, whose engagement was broken off, into his room as a concubine, which saved some face for the Xue family.

Looking at the Jia family again, Jia Qiang and Jia Yun were promoted by Uncle Feng and are now equally prosperous. However, they are distant relatives after all. To put it bluntly, they are unlikely to come to help you. It is enough for the entire Rongguo Mansion to take care of their own small family, and they have no obligation to help you, the first wife.

Jia Lian, the direct descendant of the main house, is also beholden to Uncle Feng, but this second master Lian is also unreliable. He only cares about living a happy life, and just wants to reconcile with his second wife, so he might as well just go there. The son went to Yangzhou to live freely and did not care about the big family in the capital.

Of course, others have also said that, don’t you, the old lady, prefer a second wife? My father, you don't like me. If you like Baoyu in my generation, then I won't be an eyesore in front of you. Just rely on your second wife to support you.

Baoyu, Jia Huan and even Jia Lan have also received favors from Uncle Feng, but Baoyu is useless, Jia Huan is a scholar, but he is too young, let alone Jia Lan, in this situation Now, the decline of the Jia family seems to be natural.

Logically speaking, there is a eldest girl who is a concubine in the palace, and this is not what Rongguo Mansion should be like, but it seems that the eldest girl is not doing well in the palace, and she has the title of a concubine in name. , It didn't bring much benefit to the government, but it often asked for support from the government, which was incomprehensible to everyone in the government.

It is said that the second master got a position as an academician in Jiangxi Province because of a eldest girl, but up to now, the second master has not seen any benefits from the south, which makes the people in the mansion even more unbalanced.

Uncle Feng can make chickens and dogs ascend to heaven with just a simple favor, but the eldest girl is already a noble concubine, but she is still embarrassed in all kinds of ways and has not brought any benefit to the house.

It is said that the Feng family and the Jia family are getting closer and closer, and there is a tendency to become one. However, Miss Bao, whom Uncle Feng married, is only the niece of the second master, and Miss Lin, who has not yet married, is just a niece. The two Feng and Jia families The family relationship is really not as close as outsiders imagine, but if the second girl wants to be Uncle Feng's concubine, then this situation will change.

Both Cuimo and Shishu carefully combed Tanchun's hair and arranged his clothes for Tanchun who got up.

Tanchun has lost a lot of weight compared to a few months ago, and his originally plump cheeks have also become thinner, but his eyes are still clear and sharp.

“Brother Feng really entered the mansion? Did he go to the ancestor’s place?”

"Well, I also heard what Xiaochan said when she came back. She said she watched Uncle Feng's carriage enter the house, then got out of the car and went straight to the ancestor's place, followed by Hu Hue and went to invite the wife." The servant replied road.

"Brother Feng is probably going to tell his ancestors and his wife about Brother Bao's marriage." Tan Chun showed a hint of sadness on his face, but then he smiled again, "Brother Feng is here, and many things will be solved."

"Yes, didn't Sister Yuanyang come to talk to the girl the day before yesterday? She said that Uncle Feng basically agreed and would come to discuss the detailed plans with the girl..." Cui Mo also joined the conversation.

"Brother Feng should be discussing business with his sister-in-law. I'm just doing something." There was something indescribable in Tanchun's words.

Both Cuimo and Shishu knew that the girl had been worrying about things in the house during this period, but Grandma Zhu was a leisurely person. She never saw anyone when she was talking about things, but appeared when she was a good person. The girl had to think carefully about everything she did, so she was worried that Grandma Zhu would come to intercede again in the end.

"But I'm afraid Grandma Zhu can't make the decision. She always doesn't care about this. This second master Bao's marriage and the expenses from now to the end of the year have to be calculated one by one. If you don't take advantage of Uncle Feng, Let’s make an agreement together this time, why don’t we ask Uncle Feng again in two months?” Shishu said with a frown.

The waiter also expressed the sentiments of many people here in Qiu Shuangzhai. During this period of time, Grandma Zhu took care of the house with her daughter, but she spent three days fishing and two days drying nets. She did all the hard work on weekdays. If the girl did it, it would be better for her to just stand back and be a good person.

"Okay, Uncle Feng is naturally sensible about this matter." Tanchun also knew that his status was embarrassing. As a girl who would get married sooner or later, her housekeeping was not in line with the rules. If she did not work with Sister-in-law Zhu, she would be more likely to be criticized.

"Girl, what should we do now?" The waiter was still a little unconvinced.

"What should we do?" Tan Chun said impatiently: "Brother Feng came to the house to handle his business, what does it have to do with us? If he wants to come to me, I will go."

　　************

"Sister Siqi, Sister Siqi, Uncle Feng has entered the house!" Lian Hua'er rushed into Zhujin Tower almost running and jumping, "I've seen you all. I said you went to the ancestral courtyard, but maybe Uncle Feng didn't come. Everyone is looking forward to it. As soon as his carriage entered the door, the door suddenly became lively."

"Oh?" Si Qi was excited, a flush flashed across his face, and his beautiful eyes shone, "Really?"

"Of course it's true. Everyone has seen it. I heard that I'm going to discuss the marriage of Second Master Ji Bao with my ancestors." Lian Hua'er's eyebrows brightened, "But maybe, in case we still want to talk about the girl. "

Siqi couldn't help but tighten his legs and stood up. The embroidered stretcher he held in his hands shook unconsciously a few times before he calmed down: "Lianhua'er, go and watch. I guess Uncle Feng is talking about treasures." The second master's marriage is not going to be long. It is a matter of money. It is not his turn to talk to the ancestors and the second wife specifically. He may have to talk to the third girl. If he goes to the third girl's place, let's talk about it again. Look at Uncle Feng's evening. Where to eat, if you have a chance, go and talk to Uncle Feng and see if he has time to come to Jinlou..."

Lian Hua'er also noticed that Sister Siqi's cheeks were a little red, and there was an indescribable charm in her brows, but she didn't expect that much, so she muttered timidly: "Sister Siqi, how dare I tell Uncle Feng this?" ,…”

Si Qi glared at Lian Hua'er and thought for a moment before saying: "Forget it, I'll go by myself. I have to fight for the girl. Doesn't it mean that the Sun family has nothing to do with the girl? So what are you waiting for? It’s true that Uncle Feng doesn’t care about the girl’s hard work.”

After saying that, Siqi got up, went into his room, carefully groomed himself, then went out with a sweat towel and went straight to the ancestral courtyard in the west.
