Chapter 1518: I read all the Xinzi scrolls

  Chapter 1518 Xin Zijuan is reading

The news of Feng Ziying's entry into the mansion quickly spread throughout Rongguo Mansion, not only the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but also the Jinlou, Qiushuangzhai, Daoxiang Village, Ou Xiangxie, and even Lu Xueguang and Changcui'an. .

  During this period of time, following Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan's fame, Feng Ziying once again became a popular figure in the capital city as Feng Fucheng of Shuntian Prefecture, causing wave after wave of pursuit.

  The crackdown on the Second Jingtong case was enough to raise Feng Ziying's reputation to a higher level, and the sales conference that followed was even more famous, attracting the attention of countless people inside and outside Gyeonggi and in Jiangbei and Jiangnan.

Later, it was hard to get a ticket for Daguanlou, and anyone with a bit of status and reputation was proud of being able to participate in this sales conference. Even if they didn't buy anything, as long as they could attend and sit in that venue, that was a kind of status It symbolizes that if one more card can be raised, even if it is just to join in the fun, it will be enough to make the whole capital city and even the big Zhou Dynasty show their faces in front of the dignitaries and dignitaries.

Someone with good intentions specially counted the proceeds of these rounds of sales, reaching more than three million taels of silver. Although this is all income from the imperial court, it still aroused heated discussions among countless people. From the bizarre stories of these objects, to the future use of these silver coins, they can all arouse everyone's attention.

Whether it is a big newspaper like "News Today", or a tabloid magazine such as "Northern Business Daily" and "Guan Jiangnan", which are far less famous than "News Today", they all took this opportunity to make a good blog. Existence, sales have increased a lot.

   Several court officials and Xu Hongjun, who had already retired, suddenly became popular figures. Many people presented their family heirlooms for them to appreciate, and even the business of a few shops improved a lot.

  Of course, the hot discussion in the capital city will also be transmitted to the Rongguo Mansion. The increasingly sad days of the Rongguo Mansion are all very worried about the declining situation of the Jia family.

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

Now the elders of the Rongning Second Mansion 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, the situation of the other three families is not bad, and the rapid decline of the other three families makes them sigh with emotion. Well, that’s all for Shi Xue’s family, after all, they don’t have much to do with each other, but Jia’s affairs are related to the livelihood of everyone, so we have to care about them.

After seeing the sisters of the Xue family marrying into Feng's residence, although the Xue family no longer had the atmosphere of "good years, heavy snow, pearls like earth and gold like iron" decades ago, it has also changed a lot compared to a few years ago. The son wants to revive the posture of the family style.

   Xue Pan, known as Xue Dafool, now sits on the shares of Daguanlou, and earns a lot of money every year just by paying dividends. How happy is it to be a rich and idle person?

   Xue Biao travels between Jiangnan and Beidi, operating fleets and maritime trade. It is said that he is the spokesperson of the emerging maritime trade force in Beidi.

   Everyone knows that if it wasn't for Uncle Feng's support behind, how could it be the Xue family's turn to get the glory of the two juniors? Uncle Feng even took the initiative to bring Miss Qin, who had been divorced, into the room as his concubine, which can be regarded as saving some face for the Xue family.

Looking at the Jia family, Jia Qiang and Jia Yun have been supported by Uncle Feng, and now they are also very beautiful, but after all, the two of them are distant branches, and to put it a little ugly, it is impossible for them to help you It is enough for the whole family of Rongguo Mansion to take good care of their own small family, and they have no obligation to help you, the main family.

Jia Lian, the main family's direct branch, also benefited from Uncle Feng, but this second master Lian is also unreliable. He only cares about his own romantic life and happy life. The son ran to Yangzhou to be unrestrained and carefree, and didn't care about the big family in the capital city.

  Of course, people have also said that your old lady prefers the second wife, doesn't she? My father, you don't like Baoyu. You like Baoyu in my generation, so I won't be an eyesore in front of you. You can rely on your second bedroom to support you.

It should be said that Baoyu, Jia Huan and even Jia Lan have all been favored by Uncle Feng, but Baoyu is useless, Jia Huan is a seed for reading, but he is too young, let alone Jia Lan. Now, the decline of the Jia family seems to be taken for granted.

Logically speaking, there is another eldest girl who is a noble concubine in the palace, no matter how the Rongguo Mansion should not be like this, but it seems that the eldest girl is not doing well in the palace, and she has the name of a noble concubine in name , did not bring much benefit to the mansion, but often asked for support from the mansion, which was beyond the comprehension of the people in the mansion.

   It is said that the second master got the position of Jiangxi Xuezheng because of the elder girl, but until now, he has not seen any benefits from the south to the mansion, which makes the mentality of the people in the mansion even more unbalanced.

  Uncle Feng's help can make chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, but the eldest girl is already a noble concubine, but she is still embarrassed in all kinds of ways, which does not bring the slightest benefit to the mansion.

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

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

   Compared with a few months ago, Tanchun has lost a lot of vigor, and her plump cheeks have also lost a lot of weight, but her eyes are still clear and sharp.

   "Brother Feng really entered the mansion? Went to the ancestor's place?"

"Well, the maidservant also heard what Xiaochan came back to say. She said that she watched Uncle Feng's carriage enter the mansion, then got out of the carriage and went straight to the old ancestor's side, and followed Hu Po to invite his wife." The servant replied. road.

   "Brother Feng is probably going to talk to his ancestors and his wife about the marriage of Brother Bao." Tanchun had a look of sadness on his face, but then smiled again, "Brother Feng is here, and many things can be easily resolved."

   "Yes, didn't Sister Yuanyang also come to talk to the girl the day before yesterday? He said that Uncle Feng basically agreed, and that he will come to discuss with the girl in detail when the time comes..." Cui Mo also took up the conversation.

   "Brother Feng should be discussing with his sister-in-law, I'm just doing things." Tanchun's words revealed a bit of indescribable taste.

Both Cui Mo and Shi Shu knew that the girl had been worrying a lot about the affairs of the house during this time, but that grandma Zhu was a leisurely person, she didn't see anyone when she was talking about things, and she showed up when she was a good person. The girl has to weigh everything she does, and she is worried that Grandma Zhu will intercede again in the end.

"But Grandma Zhu is afraid that she can't make the decision. She never cares about these things. The marriage of the second master Bao, from now to the end of the year, has to be settled one by one. Don't take advantage of Uncle Feng. This time I came here and agreed, so why don't I ask Uncle Feng again after two months?" The servant said with a puckered mouth.

Shishu also expressed the feelings of many people in Qiushuangzhai. This grandma Zhu has been housekeeping with her own girl during this time, but she has been fishing for three days and drying the net for two days. The hard work is done by herself. The girl did it, but she is fine, just stand by and be a good person.

   "Okay, Uncle Feng naturally has a sense of proportion in this matter." Tanchun also knew that his status was embarrassing. The girl who was going to marry sooner or later, the housekeeper was not in compliance with the rules. If she didn't work with Sister-in-law Zhu, she would be more likely to be criticized.

   "Then girl, what should we do now?" Shi Shu was still a little unconvinced.

   "What should I do?" Tanchun said impatiently: "Brother Feng came to the mansion 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 mansion!" Lian Hua'er almost ran and jumped into the Zhuijin Building, "I saw it all, and said that I went to the ancestor's courtyard, maybe Uncle Feng didn't come The mansion is here, and everyone is looking forward to it, as soon as his carriage enters the door, there is a lively scene at the door."

   "Oh?" Siqi was excited, a blush flashed across his face, his beautiful eyes sparkled, "Really?"

"Of course it's true, everyone has seen it, and it's said that it's going to marry the old ancestor Shangji Bao Erye." Lian Hua'er's eyebrows were bright, "But maybe, what if we still want to talk about the girl. "

Siqi couldn't help but tightened his legs, stood up, and shook the embroidered stretcher unconsciously in his hand a few times before he finally settled down: "Lianhuaer, you go and stare, I guess Uncle Feng said the treasure The second master's marriage will not be long, it's a matter of money, and it's not up to the ancestors and the second wife to talk about it, maybe you have to talk to the third girl, if you go to the third girl's place, let's talk again, look at Uncle Feng's evening Where to eat, if you have a chance, go and talk to Uncle Feng to see if he has time to come to the Jinlou,..."

Lian Hua'er also noticed that Sister Siqi's cheeks were a little red, and there was an unspeakable obsession between her brows, but she couldn't think of that much, and said timidly: "Sister Siqi, how dare I say this to Uncle Feng?" ,..."

Si Qi glared at Lian Hua'er, thought for a while and said, "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? Then what are you waiting for, master? Uncle Feng is really too, and he doesn't think about the girl's painstaking efforts."

   After saying that, Siqi got up, went into his room, groomed himself carefully, and then went out holding a sweat towel, and went straight to the west side of the ancestor's yard.
