Chapter 100
Jia Yu, a first-class Shenwei general and a well-known old man, doesn't know if he has heard too much or what, but when he talks about books, he actually talks about books and talks endlessly.
He vividly described how Jia Lian was praised by others after he got Zhang's dowry, how he was happily wronged, how he was fooled by the stewards, and finally sold the "bad income" shop and land cheaply, just a little money when he got it, and so on, and so on.
Finally, Jia Yu also concluded:
"If you continue like this, your mother's dowry will be lost in less than a year!
But you've long been accustomed to this kind of extravagant and flattering days, and what can you do without money?
At this time, you must have thought like this, anyway, the Rong Mansion will be yours in the future, and when he takes power one day, why worry about the problem of money? The family background of the Rong Mansion is not comparable to the dowry of a mere woman!
- Son, do you think that what your father said is right?"
Jia Yu said that he was reasonable, well-founded, and clear-sighted, as if he had truly witnessed Jia Lian's future.
After saying this, Jia Lian, who was blown up, was dizzy, and almost wondered if he would really be like this after he got his mother's dowry.
But he suddenly realized that he was almost led away by his father's nose. If it is according to what his father said, then it is somewhat understandable that the other party "would rather be a loser than pass on a son" - knowing that people will be defeated in the future, it is indeed better to enjoy it for himself - but these are just his father's personal conjectures, which are not accurate!
Fortunately, Jia Lian seemed to have found Jia Yu's mistake, and raised his voice and said:
"Father, these are just your unilateral guesses, and it doesn't make sense to say them no matter how many times you say them. Besides, why do you always want to destroy the Rong Mansion?!"
Jia Lian is not stupid, on the contrary, he is a little clever, but he was almost led astray again. Now that he stopped in time, he could faintly feel that his father's attitude was a little subtle, and he could see the stilt in the other party's words.
But what kind of character is Jia Yu? Naturally, he was not afraid of Jia Lian's provocation, his eyes narrowed, and he asked rhetorically:
"If you are undefeated, what can you do? Even if I keep it well, who can I count on below? Can you? Can you see if those stewards are fooling you? Or can you stand the temptation and never be foolish?"
- Although Jia Yu's statement that Jia Lian would lose the Zhang family's dowry in less than a year is a bit exaggerated, it cannot be denied that this son has been clothed and fed since he was a child, does not know how to do housework, and is not firm in will.
Speaking of this, Jia Yu was depressed.
Over the years, the Jia family has shortened the food or use of this stinky boy, how can they raise their eyelids so shallowly? I can't say that anyone will give a little profit in the future, so I can't wait to wag my tail and beg for mercy!
However, you don't have to think about it to know that no one will give up the huge family wealth in two sentences, although according to Jia Yu's investigation, now the Rong Mansion has been made by the Jia Shi clan and the Jia Wang clan, and there is almost an empty shell left.
But, isn't there an old saying that "a skinny camel is bigger than a horse"?
...... I can't "act" like this.
Jia Yu thought like this, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and deliberately made a decision to "help" Jia Lian directly:
"That's it, why do I have to talk so much about you son-in-law? Your mother's things are all in the capital, and I will return them to you when I return to Beijing. β
"Father, father?!" Jia Lian panicked, not understanding why Jia Yu suddenly changed his mind.
Jia Yu waved his hand and continued without letting Jia Lian speak:
"The family business of the Rong Mansion is not as simple as your mother's dowry!
You and I have pretended to be crazy and stupid for so many years for this family business, but I don't want to see it cheaper for others in the end!"
Jia Yu did not hesitate to say "really stupid" as "pretending to be stupid". In the end, he even said indignantly:
"I won't do this kind of stupid thing of making wedding clothes for others!
As for your mother's things, I'm really not rare, so keep them for yourself. β
Hearing this, Jia Lian's dissatisfaction soared to the extreme in an instant.
-- Jia Lian is already upright and the most disobedient to discipline, Jia Yu is good to let Jia Lian make his own choice, if he makes his own decision, he will definitely not do it, and he will definitely come against Jia Yu.
I saw Jia Lian forcibly and said without getting angry: "Father, don't be alarmist, what are you 'pretending to be crazy and stupid'-"
That's all because you're useless!
- Jia Lian almost blurted out these words, but fortunately he still had his senses, so he didn't come out of his mouth. He gritted his teeth before he said: "What can't be guarded, how can this matter be as strict as you say!"
β...... Everyone knows that Rongfu is a big fat meat, that is, you are yourself, and you don't want to loosen your mouth. Do you still think you're the only one staring?" Jia Yu pouted with disdain, "It's naΓ―ve!"
"I ...... Father ...... "Jia Lian vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he didn't come up with a reason for it at once."
Seeing Jia Lian's doubts, Jia Yu deliberately said: "I only want to ask you, who lives in Rongxi Hall now?"
-- It's the second uncle's family. Jia Lian was stunned, but thought in his heart. However, this was my grandmother's request, and my father didn't agree to it?
After thinking about it, Rongfu is obviously the head of the big house, why does Rongxi Hall have to live for the second uncle?
...... Father, why did he agree? Although Jia Lian was still ignorant, he also had an idea.
Jia Yu saw that Jia Lian seemed to have an understanding, so he simply spread it out and said:
β...... You and I, my son, are now just taking advantage of the four words 'justifiable', and 'no one' is convinced; one day, even this reason will be gone, how can you say?"
When Jia Yu said this, he almost said that some people jumped up and down, coveting the Rongfu family business in various ways.
Thanks to the recent fact that Jia Lian's aunt Zhang Liu has been smearing people outside the Jia family's big house without a trace and earnestly, Jia Lian at this moment heard this, and intellectually believed it, but emotionally, compared to this father, he still favored the second uncle and aunt who got along with him when he was a child.
"It's really not the heart of the Yellow River that doesn't die. Looking at Jia Lian's slightly stunned expression, Jia Yu sighed. He whispered, "Lian'er." β
Jia Lian came back to his senses and looked at Jia Yu.
Jia Yu said: "I still keep the previous problem. β
Seeing what Jia Lian Gu said, Jia Yu raised his hand to stop him: "You listen to me first." I will also give you a chance to see what kind of situation the present Rong Mansion is.
When that time comes, you will come back to me - what are you going to choose? β
Jia Lian lowered his head and thought about it, and finally nodded.
Jia Yu sighed twice in his heart. It's finally time to "break"!
ββI'm looking forward to it!
