Chapter 169: Xiao Scatters Surplus Funds with Great Righteousness

Wei Qi's family did not return the marriage certificate as Qing'er wished, but Liu Wu'er came to Liujiatun more often, and sometimes stayed at Wei Qi's house when it was late. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The law of the Celestial Empire clarifies the system of polyandry and concubines, the so-called monogamy, is to protect the special rights and interests of the main family, as for the concubine room, the status is not much higher than that of slaves and maids, and they can even be given to each other as gifts.

The Liu family believes that they are not at fault, and even if they want to withdraw from the marriage, they have to ask the Wang family to ask his family, and the party who proposes to withdraw from the marriage must bear the responsibility for financial compensation.

Qing'er treated this matter coldly like a nobody.

She runs the "Qingqing Fruit and Vegetable" store, and the biggest beneficiary is the tenants, and she has to be responsible for their livelihoods.

Grandma Liu and Qing'er are both affectionate and righteous people, drinking water and thinking of the source, thinking of Jiafu's original help to their family, they still asked Wang Gou'er to pick up vegetables every now and then and send a cart to Jiafu.

In fact, if you talk about living at home, not to mention the other places in the Daguan Garden, just the more than ten acres of fertile land in Daoxiang Village, the male cultivators and women weave enough to maintain the eating, drinking and clothing of the masters of Jiafu, but unfortunately, they are used to luxury, and they have hundreds of relatives and domestic slaves.

In order to force the stone nerd to death with a few ancient fans, and the matter of selling officials was quickly confirmed and finalized, Jia Yucun was dismissed from his post and sent back to his hometown, the eldest lord was dismissed from the post of first-class general, and the palace was also copied and inspected, and the imperial court calculated that Rongguo Mansion still had oil and water to squeeze, and remembered that Jia pardoned the old and frail, and deliberately granted permission to replace the punishment with a fine, so that Jia Mansion donated 100,000 silver to atone for the eldest lord.

To be honest, nine times out of ten, Jiafu hopes that the emperor will not "favor" Jiafu too much, and it is better to let the eldest master live in prison for a long time. Only Jia's mother really planned for him, first gave some of her clothes to Mrs. Xing, and gave her one hundred taels of silver to barely maintain her daily expenses, and then asked Jia Zheng and Jia Lian to raise money to redeem Jia Yu.

Although he has never been waiting to see his eldest son, something really happened, and he spared no effort to defend him, who made himself his own mother.

The nine Zhuangzi in the countryside pawned two last time, and this time the family had no savings, so they had to strip off the flesh of their hearts to heal the sores in front of them, and sold the land in the Zhuangzi, leaving only the two places near the ancestral ancestral hall, which were still taken care of by the old slave Wu Zhixiao, in addition to feeding more than a dozen families of old slaves who had meritorious service to their ancestors, there was not much tribute to food.

The people all said that the emperor remembered the old feelings, extrajudicial kindness, and did not raid the Rongguo Mansion, in fact, these two atonement donations are cleaner than the raids, just like the Zhen family in Jiangnan, there is silver deposited in the world friends on weekdays, even if it is copied, there are still private assets to maintain a low-key but solid life, Jiafu is just the opposite, they are high-profile stretched.

During these days, everyone in Jiafu was immersed in melancholy and sentimentality, and it stands to reason that Tanchun should be secretly happy, but because he became the adopted daughter of King Nan'an, he completely cut off the luxury of marrying King Hengjun, how could he let go of that infatuation for a while.

Immediately afterwards, Jiafu received a holy decree to canonize Tanchun as the lord of Meiyang.

It was still Father-in-law Xia who passed the decree, and Mrs. Wang ruthlessly dotted two hundred taels of silver, which was still Baoyu who took a finch gold tweed cloak as a mustard, which made Father-in-law Xia unhappy.

When the news spread, those officials and businessmen who were estranged due to the decline of Jiafu said that Rongguo Mansion was still bathed in the emperor's grace, and some were ready to congratulate them with generous gifts.

Jia Zheng used the excuse of guarding the system for the virtuous imperial concubine, and even the banquet guests were exempted.

Li Kun deliberately scraped together twenty taels of silver and asked the kitchen to prepare a few tables of banquets, although it was not as big as before, so that the family could get together and have a lively day.

Qing'er also prepared two hundred taels of silver tickets to congratulate the ceremony. Every time I earn money, I buy a field, which is also all the savings in hand, and I just find a reason to send it out.

In addition to Jia Yu and Mrs. Xing, Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai also came over to cheer, but her mother and daughter were worried about Xue Pan's affairs, and they just forced a smile to entertain.

Because Qing'er gave a gift, she was treated as a guest, sitting next to Aunt Xue, she toasted the old lady during the banquet, who knew that the old lady suddenly shed tears, and said silently: "My children and grandchildren are all created by themselves, but Sister Qiao'er is young, and in the future, I hope that Miss Qing'er will take more care of her." ”

Mother Jia is the most open-minded and optimistic, but she is so sad about the happy thing of spring, everyone is puzzled, and wants to say something playful to make her happy, but where is Sister Feng's ability to speak like a spring.

Qing'er knew that Mother Jia was an understanding person, and she didn't need to be polite to her, so she immediately promised: "Don't worry, the old lady, our family is thanks to the old lady, Mrs. and Grandma Lian's compassion, so we have today's food and clothing, not only me, our whole family will take care of Sister Qiao as the closest relative." ”

After all, her family is a grass people, and before she knew what Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang meant, she didn't dare to be abrupt and rashly mentioned the marriage between Sister Qiao and Ban'er.

"I thank you and your grandma for Feng girl. Mother Jia gradually controlled her emotions, Mandarin Duck and others served and washed their faces, and soon regained their former calmness, laughing and eating a drink.

"Although the old lady is relaxed, the Feng girl is gone, Sister Qiao still has aunts to take care of, the third girl is now the lord of Meiyang, just take care of her in the future. "Aunt Zhao is Tanchun's mother-in-law, but now that Yuanchun is gone, Mrs. Wang no longer has the capital to command her, so she has to be reluctant to speak, and she wants to listen to flattery, but everyone just doesn't give her this face.

Mother Jia's smile was still faint, and she ignored her words, and when the banquet was about to disperse, she said to Aunt Zhao: "Blessings and misfortunes depend, I don't think it's a good thing for the third girl to be named the county lord, it's better to look down on it as soon as possible." ”

Tanchun pondered the poems of the red apricot leaning on the clouds on the edge of the sun, and she also understood the grace falling from the sky, she could think about it, rather than sitting at home with no way out, it was better to go out and open up another world.

After the banquet, everyone was relieved, and sent Jia's mother back to the house, and told her some jokes to relax.

Amber made Lao Junmei tea for Jia's mother, and Pu'er tea for everyone.

Jia Mu lowered her throat and calmly said to the mandarin duck: "Take out the list that was sorted out yesterday." ”

The mandarin duck went back to Jia's mother's house to fetch it and handed it to Jia's mother.

Mother Jia said without sadness or joy: "I know that now all the rooms are waiting for silver, I have married into your family, since I became a daughter-in-law, all my body is this, the former son Zhen'er and Rong'er traveled far away, brought him a thousand taels for the road, and the rest was given to Yu'er, Zheng'er and Brother Lian 3,000 taels each, Zhu'er's daughter-in-law and widow are unemployed, and you will also be given 1,000 taels, and the rest will be used to marry a few grandchildren, and what I wear now will be distributed to the girls in my house in the future." The house is still out of the house, and the meals are eaten separately. ”

The mandarin duck opened the mahogany box, looked at Jia's mother's eyes, and counted the silver ticket to Mrs. Wang, Li Kun and Jia Lian, and Jia Yu's other person sent it to him.

You Shi saw that the old lady was dividing the family property, and she was not from her house, so she didn't say goodbye, and quietly got up and prepared to leave.

"Brother Zhen, daughter-in-law, I still have something to say. Before she stepped out of the door with her front feet, Jia Mu hurriedly stopped her and said: " I know that you resent me in your heart, thinking that I only felt sorry for my own life, and did not do anything for Zhen'er like the eldest master, I just think that Brother Zhen'er's affairs are not solved by silver, and it is a good thing for him to go on the expedition with the king of Hengjun, and the eldest lord can't count on it, if he stays at home in the future, he may be able to protect his old age, Brother Zhen'er is still young, so he naturally wants to find an opportunity to make contributions, work hard like his ancestors, and perhaps, he can regain the trust of the saint in him. ”

"The old lady's lesson is that her nephews and daughters-in-law dare not complain, because the old lady is too worried. You Shi listened respectfully to Jia's mother's teachings on the surface, but secretly slandered in his belly: "You give your children and grandchildren a reward of money, but you use some high-sounding words to gag my mouth, which is so hypocritical that people disdain. ”

"I don't have the time to worry about it, as long as you don't feel wronged in your hearts. Seeing that her lips were a little pale, the mandarin duck hurriedly brought the tea to her mouth and took a sip, and added: "Don't worry, the future family affairs of the four girls are still my business." Brother Zhen is the eldest grandson of the eldest house, and he has been responsible for the affairs of the clan over the years, and has never let a descendant of the clan go hungry and freeze, and the ancestors of the Jia family are all watching, and they will bless him with a safe return. ”

The mandarin duck waited for Jia Mu to finish speaking, and asked the glass and amber to carry out a small wooden box and hand it to You Shi.

"Grandma, this is what you started to prepare when you moved to Lixiangyuan, the old lady said, your current identity is not suitable to be cashed out with silver tickets, I am afraid that it will be too public, so I sold some jewelry and made up three thousand taels of silver, although it is not much, save it, I hope to support it until the day Uncle Zhen returns." ”

Before You Shi could reply, Jia Zheng couldn't hold it anymore, knelt in front of him and cried bitterly: "It's all because the son is not filial, the old lady is so old, the children and grandchildren are not filial, but they have to bear the grace of the ancestors, and the mother is not worried, and the son is more and more self-conscious......"

You Shi stood straight behind the door, stunned for a while, and cried to the old lady: "Ancestor, our lord comforted me before leaving, don't look at the old lady who just pretends to be confused on weekdays, like a mirror in her heart, the old lady has her own arrangements for big and small things in the family, I don't believe it, sure enough, the old lady broke her heart for us......"

Everyone was sad, and they felt grateful to the old lady for understanding the righteousness, and not exerting power on her daughter-in-law and slaves every day, and quietly reconciling family conflicts, who knows, not to mention Sister Feng in her heart, even all of them combined can't catch up.

When ......the old lady saw them like this, she teased, "Get up, are you afraid that I will go like this, and there will be no silver to hold the funeral?" )
