Zhou Muqing was also impatient to talk to Jia Lian here, knowing that he must have something to find him, so why bother talking so much. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Cousin, if you have something to say directly, this secretive style is different from what you usually do.

Could it be that it is because he is an official now, but those officials and eunuchs are all put at home?

Or cousin, you are sincerely coming to the door to ask for tea today, if this is the case, I will ask someone to send you another 2 catties later. ”

Hearing Zhou Muqing say this, Jia Lian couldn't help but feel embarrassed, the more he walked around the officialdom, the more he was worried about it now, and it had become his code of conduct to see people only talking about three points.

secretly sighed that he was not at home now, and he was actually pierced by his cousin, and he coughed twice to hide his embarrassment.

"I've always known that you, cousin, are a smart and clever person, and I'm afraid I can't hide anything from you.

I came to my cousin's place this time, and I really have something to discuss, and I hope you can help me get an idea. ”

asked a question from a sister who was much younger than herself, but Jia Lian didn't feel embarrassed at all.

Standing up and walking around the room twice, Jia Lian seemed to have made up his mind and invited Zhou Muqing.

"Since the construction of the provincial Qinqing villa, although I have presided over it, I haven't taken a good look at it, look at the beautiful scenery of this grand view garden, it is better for my sister to accompany me to a circle. ”

Zhou Muqing didn't think that Jia Lian simply invited himself to visit the Grand View Garden, and estimated that he would say some things to himself later.

A few maids followed from afar, and Jia Lian also deliberately walked towards an open place, I don't know who I heard say, the most confidential thing, said in an open place, but it is not easy to be heard.

"My sister also knows me, and now I've been in the household for some time, but there is one thing in the house that bothers me a lot recently. ”

Jia Lian was standing on the cloister, looking at the undulating waves under his feet, when it was first built, there was an artificial lake outside the Cave Jingxi Pavilion.

There are a lot of ornamental fish in this lake, probably because they are often fed, and these fish are not afraid to live.

As soon as Jia Lian approached the water's edge, these fish swarmed over, and they kept rolling and jumping in the water, waiting for someone to feed him.

"Recently, when I was working in the household department, Lord Qiu, the right attendant, gave me an account book, on which some things were recorded, and I didn't know what to do. ”

Jia Lian didn't look at Zhou Muqingqing as he spoke, but kept staring at the noisy and happy fish in the water, as if these fish could see a flower.

As soon as she heard Jia Lian mention the household department, Zhou Muqing felt her heart skip a beat, and a conjecture was formed in her heart, and she couldn't erase it.

If his memory is not wrong, it seems that one of the crimes that Rongguo Mansion was convicted of raiding his house in the future was that he owed a lot of money to the treasury and did not pay it back.

Now that Jia Lian has mentioned these to himself, the most likely thing is that he found out about this matter, and maybe someone might mention him.

Zhou Muqing didn't answer Jia Lian's words, just stood quietly not far behind him, and the two of them fell into silence for a while.

I thought that Zhou Muqing would know something, Jia Lian deliberately used his cousin's words, although Lord Qiu did not say it explicitly, but one of the meanings he expressed in his words was to know the former Zhou family.

And the people of the Zhou family he knows, except for his uncle's family, and his cousin and cousin who now live in Rongguo Mansion, there is no one else.

Jia Lian didn't know if he was thinking too much, and always felt that Master Qiu took out this account book, and it seemed that there were other meanings in it.

"Cousin, you must be curious, why did I tell you this? It's just that Master Qiu mentioned my sister, so I wanted to ask if you know something?"

For Jia Lian not to play cards according to the rules, he was caught off guard by Zhou Muqing, and he was almost about to answer, he knew the wife of Lord Qiu's family, but he changed the conversation at the last moment.

"Know...... How could I know Lord Qiu, cousin, I'm afraid you're joking, right? He is a dignified member of the court from the third grade, how can I know a common man. ”

was afraid that Jia Lian wouldn't believe what he said, but Zhou Muqing immediately changed the topic and pulled it to the account book.

"Cousin, didn't you say the account book? Or is there someone who has told you something bad?"

Jia Lian was already proficient in vulgar things before, and he had been in officialdom for so long, how could he not notice Zhou Muqing's reluctance to talk more about this matter, so as to change the topic.

I thought in my heart that Zhou Muqing must have an unknown relationship with Lord Qiu, and thought of the prominent position of the Zhou family in the past, and it was normal to have a few protégés.

It is likely that Lord Qiu is one of these protégés, and he is also a person who misses the old love, but now he is deliberately guiding himself.

Jia Lian didn't know whether what he was thinking was right or wrong, but he made up his mind that in the future, he would follow Master Qiu closer and be closer to his cousin and cousin.

"Look at me like this, I've been busy lately, sister, a boudoir woman who doesn't go out of the door, how can she know any court officials.

As for the account book, it is true, I recently looked through the case records of those deputy departments, but I found that many Dacheng's families owed the treasury a lot of silver.

I owe 800,000 yuan of silver to Rongguo Mansion alone, and now I am also working in the household department, so I naturally know that the finances are tight.

I heard Uncle Lin say that my sister is a thoughtful person, so I want to ask my sister you, should I pay back the money in Rongguo Mansion?"

Although he made up his mind in his heart, this silver must be repaid, but looking at His Majesty's recent series of actions, Jia Lian always felt that if he didn't pay back the silver, something would definitely happen in the future.

I have to say that Jia Lian's conjecture is completely correct, won't Rongguo Mansion be raided by today's family in the future because he didn't pay back the silver and his life is too luxurious?

In this or among them, the worst sufferers are not the people of their big houses, the raiders of their homes, the exiles of exile, and there is no possibility of getting up again.

I didn't see the second room of the family, because of the relationship between not attacking the lord, there was a "Lan Gui Qifang" in the end, but in the end, it slowly got up again?

Therefore, the big house of Rongguo Mansion, that is, Jia Yu's branch, is purely a mallet, and he always makes wedding dresses for others.
