Chapter 622 T-shaped scroll tool man Jia Lian

"Sister Feng, you really know how to find a fig leaf for yourself. Even if Ziying wants to marry the Lin family sister, the Xue family sister, or the Yun girl, it is their business, and it will have something to do with you getting money out of it. Shameless?"

   Jia Lian was furious when he thought of this.

   He only found out when he came back yesterday. The merchants from the Shanshan Guild Hall in the capital city immediately came to the door, wanting to inquire about relevant news, which made Jia Lian also baffled.

It was only later that I learned that after knowing that they were working for Feng Ziying in Yangzhou, these Shanshan businessmen knew that they could not enter the arena in Yangzhou, and that Jingshi City was their home field, so they immediately contacted Rongguo Mansion through various relationships. Well, both Jia Amnesty and Wang Xifeng were co-opted and moved by various people, and they ended up like this.

  If Feng Ziying were to know about these messy things at home, I was afraid that his career in Yangzhou would be greatly compromised, and this was also the most irritating thing for Jia Lian.

  In this capital city, although it looks beautiful, but in Jia's mansion, only oneself knows the suffering.

  There are two masters, especially my father, who often has wild ideas, and behaves arrogantly and unreasonably. Many things can't be done by force.

There is Sister Feng, who often provokes right and wrong, and takes trouble for the upper body. In the inner courtyard, from the old lady to the wife, they all dote on Jia Baoyu in every possible way. The Jia Mansion brings wealth and prosperity.

In addition, the more he interacted with Feng Ziying in the past few years, the more he could feel the changes in the external situation, and he no longer had the thoughts of dawdling in the past, even with Jia Zhen, Jia Rong and Jia Qiang in the East Mansion. The division also attracted half-truths and half-fake teasing from the East Mansion.

  All these situations made Jia Lian want to leave.

   Especially Feng Ziying's ambiguity on this issue made Jia Lian even more vigilant.

  So he would rather make it clear to people like Sister Feng earlier, maybe he will go to Yangzhou next time, and if he wants to come back, after Lin Ruhai passed away, he would send his spirit back to Suzhou for burial before returning to the capital.

   And even if he returned to the capital, he planned to stay in Jiangnan for a long time.

After all, a man needs to have a career of his own in order to be able to stand tall in front of a woman. This is what Feng Ziying said. Look at Jia Zheng. circle, inquire about the news, and make the whole mansion think that he is also a member of the imperial court after he comes back?

  Jia Lian is well aware of how bad the impression he has in the mansion is for someone like his own father who bears the name of General Wei Lie but hangs around in the mansion all day long.

  He didn't want to be reduced to the situation where he was planning to take out his ancestors' little belongings and sell them off in the future.

"Hehe, Jia Lian, you are the dead duck—you have a hard mouth and shell, I am shameless? I don't know how difficult things are in this Rongguo mansion, how many difficulties are there, and who ever took care of the affairs in this compound? Thousands of people Horse chews, who asked where the money came from? Ladies celebrate their birthdays, grandmas give birth, servants get sick, daily necessities, food and medicine, girls’ powder and rouge, house repairs, which one does not need money? Jia Lian, don’t you know how much the harvest in Gongzhong is?!”

  Wang Xifeng has also noticed that Jia Lian's mind has changed a little, and even she has become a little unpredictable.

  In the past, even though he had to talk back, he never dared to attack himself with vicious words such as "shameless", but now he has become so unscrupulous?

  Jia Lian's eloquence was never a match for Wang Xifeng, and Wang Xifeng's quick wit was not comparable to Jia Lian. Feng Ziying had already judged this point.

  Jia Lian is superior in his loyalty, kindness and diligence. He doesn't have many other advantages, but for Feng Ziying, these two points are the most important to him now.

  Jia Lian knows about the situation in Jia's mansion, but it's not his turn to worry about it now. There are two masters, including the ancestor, wife and sister Feng, and he is just someone who talks on the sidelines.

  At this moment, Sister Feng questioned him, which was a bit unexpected, as if he, Jia Lian, should be responsible for the failure of the mansion.

  Even your housekeeper, Sister Feng, was entrusted by the second wife. Do you really think that you have become the head of the Jia family?

   "Sister Feng, you don't seem to be in the right position, do you? You should report this situation to your ancestors and wife, and let them discuss it with the two masters. Is it my turn to intervene? What does it have to do with me?"

   Jia Lian sneered, and his eyes were even more disdainful.

"Well, don't use that kind of cover to cover up. I don't want to take care of your affairs, and I can't take care of them, but I just want to remind you, don't bother Ziying with nothing. She doesn't owe our family now. What, you have to have the ability to fool those Shanshan businessmen, that is your ability, but if you use Ziying or my name to bluff and cheat, then I will not spoil you in this matter!"

   After speaking, Jia Lian got up and walked away.

  He still has something to do, he has to negotiate with the two masters first, and then tell the ancestors and wives that it is not Sister Feng's turn to intervene in Daiyu's marriage.

  ********

"What? The Feng family is going to marry Miss Lin?" Jia She and Jia Zheng, who were sitting in the official hat chair in the Rongxi Hall, had just had time to pick up the tea, were taken aback. Jia Zheng even shook his hand, and the tea was so hot It's a grin.

Although Jia Zheng had this thought for a long time, and even discussed it with his wife several times, at first he felt that Baoyu had some thoughts on Daiyu. Later, Mrs. Wang directly rejected Daiyu's body, and then Feng Ziying Both the rise and Yuanchun's entry into the palace made Jia Zheng and his wife feel that Baoyu could have a better marriage. It seems that Daiyu's marriage to Feng Ziying is also a good thing.

  It's just that Mrs. Wang later felt that if Baochai could marry Feng Ziying, the relationship between the two parties would be closer.

Especially when Lin Daiyu still has her father, the Jia family cannot be the master of her marriage, and the Xue family no longer has a man in charge, and she completely relies on the Jia family. Then Aunt Xue is also a woman who doesn't have many ideas, so naturally she can Big bag.

   "Well, Mrs. Lin has already agreed. It seems that Feng's family has also asked Mr. Qige to be a matchmaker, and they have all issued letters of appointment..." Jia Lian also skillfully blurred the time in his words.

   After all, it has been half a year. Whether Feng Ziying decided on his first trip to Yangzhou, or on his second trip, he knew it in his heart, but he kept his mouth shut.

So fast? !

  Jia She and Jia Zheng looked at each other, but they couldn't say anything.

  It is only right and proper for the father to be the master, and he knows that he will not live long, so he naturally has to make proper arrangements for his daughter.

Although it is rare for the Feng family to have one family and two concubines, it does not affect anything. Each family has its own family. The Shen family has entered the long house, and the Lin family has entered the third house. There are as many marriages in the mansion as crucian carp crossing the river, and all of them are famous families among officials and gentry, but they don't know why they chose Lin girl. Could it be that there are too many contacts, that is, Feng Ziying saw the right thing ?

  Jia She and Jia Zheng didn't believe that this matter would be Feng's father and Feng's mother's idea, and it must be Feng Ziying's own thoughts to ask Qi Yongtai to come forward as a matchmaker.

   This Lin Ruhai really caught up with a good fortune, and he was able to recruit Feng Ziying as his son-in-law. Jia She and Jia Zheng thought at the same time that it would be great if their daughter was a direct descendant.

   "Did Ziying know about Ruhai lending our family 150,000 taels of silver?" Jia Zheng asked quickly.

"Then how can I not know?" Jia Lian said awkwardly: "Now Uncle Lin and Ziying are sons-in-law, and Uncle Lin has no children, so I will definitely not hide such things from Ziying, but I have heard Ziying's meaning, and I don't think so. He was too busy in Yangzhou to ask about such matters, and after finalizing the marriage, he spent most of his time in the yamen set up by the Zhongshu Division in Yangzhou, and even seldom went to the yamen for the transfer of salt envoys."

Jia Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, but Jia Amnesty asked with a gloomy face: "Lian'er, tell us the truth, can Ruhai still come up with one or two thousand taels of silver? Marrying Feng Ziying requires a dowry to suppress it?"

   This matter can be imagined, but Jia Zheng will never mention it, and Jia Amnesty is so annoying.

Jia Lian shook his head and said sternly: "Masters, on the second day before we set off and returned, a censor from the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Capital City arrived in Yangzhou to investigate the transfer of salt envoys in the Huaihe River and Huaihe Rivers. After more than six years of inspecting Yan Yushi, I feel that the two hundred thousand taels of silver is enough to support me, and I have to sell almost all the land, shops and mansions. When I was in Yangzhou, I helped Mr. Lin deal with a lot,... "

  The censor went south to check Lin Ruhai? And it's not from the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, but the censor of the Capital Metropolitan Procuratorate going south?

   This shocked the two brothers Jia She and Jia Zheng again. Jia She hurriedly asked, "Will the 150,000 taels of silver be affected?"

"Probably not. I think Mrs. Lin has a plan in mind. As he said, he left nothing for Sister Lin as a dowry, and lent the rest to our family in the hope that our family can become Sister Lin's support in the future. After all, this Feng family is now in full swing, and like the long-standing Shen family, his father Shen Xing is now the prefect of Dongchang Prefecture, a senior member of the fourth rank, and he is not too old, and there may be a step forward in the future, so... "

   Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng all stroked their beards and nodded slightly in silence.

   This is reasonable.

   Once Lin Ruhai died, Lin Daiyu became an orphan. After three years of filial piety, although I dare not say that Feng Ziying regretted the marriage, if a woman does not have a strong enough natal family to rely on, she will definitely suffer.

In particular, Feng Ziying is still the second wife, and the eldest son is still the daughter of a scholarly family who is also from a famous Suzhou family, so no matter how you look at it, Daiyu seems a little lacking in confidence. Naturally, in the future, she will rely on a family of two countries, and there is also a The imperial concubine came to support Jia's family in the palace.
