Chapter Eighty-Seven: Jia Mu is angry
Jia Jing didn't know the crooked words in Jia's mother's heart, listening to this, thinking about Jia's mother's experience in the world, and she was not squinted by wealth, so who was the one who was bold in her previous life and made the new emperor angry in front of the new emperor? It's like now
"What my aunt said is that the affairs of the heavenly family are decided by the heavenly family, and we are only loyal to those who sit on that place. Come to think of it, that Miss Qin is, it is also a coincidence, it must not be that you want to promote the Emperor Taishang to promote Prince Yizhong, and think about taking a child from the imperial relatives to inherit the heir, you must know that even if this girl's family recognizes anything, can she inherit the throne?" Jia Jing's sharp gaze swept over Jia Yu and Jia Zheng, and the four of them were deeply scared.
"When, of course, it's a coincidence. ”
"However, since the connection is intimate, that's it, we didn't do every trace before, so be it! And the mother's thing."
When it came to the things she cared about, Mrs. Wang couldn't care about anything else, and raised her head and stared at Jia Jing.
"Zheng'er, you are the Langzhong of the Ministry of Works, and you want to know that there are projects in the Ministry of Works?"
Jia Zheng mentioned himself for some reason, "The year before last, the Yellow River was flooded, and last year there was a great drought and cold in the north, and the imperial court sent water and grain, can this be counted?"
"You all know that last year's Jiangnan Rebellion, right?"
Everyone nodded with palpitations, the Jia family's hometown is in Jinling, but fortunately, the Jia family transferred most of its forces to Kyoto in the early years, and it was not damaged much.
"In the past two years, natural disasters have continued, last year's Jiangnan Rebellion greatly reduced the treasury tax, which is also the four princes, but also the fuse of the new emperor's accession to the throne, because of the treasury silver thing, whether it is the old emperor or the new emperor, it is an untouchable place, I don't see how much the prince of Yide is favored, the power is all over the court, and when it can be compared with the old emperor's forces, I don't see the old emperor wantonly suppressed, once the treasury silver is encountered, this shakes the country's capital, but it's"
The crowd was silent and thoughtful.
"Since, at such a time when the treasury is empty, but the concubine is provincial, and the descendants are allowed to build a large number of buildings and establish a provincial family, such a time"
Those who can sit here are not simple people, Jia Jing has talked about this, where is there anything I don't understand.
"What does the patriarch mean, does the emperor want to see which family is greedy for silver?"
"Where is the meaning of the emperor and the emperor can we understand, we are not the kind of family that has gone through many dynasties, and the mother is not the position of concubine, concubine, etc., and we don't need to compare with others. However, my aunt is right, although we don't compare with others, we can't lose our dignity, after all, the people standing behind the mother are not ordinary people, but two national mansions, so let's do it, we will pay 50,000 taels from Ningfu, and then 20,000 taels on behalf of the clan, which can be regarded as our mind. ”
"Where can the patriarch come out for us, I will represent us with eight thousand taels!"
"Yes, we will come out by ourselves, we will be five thousand taels!"
"We're four thousand taels!"
"We can't compare, so we came out with a thousand taels!"
"Okay, you belong to you, I belong to mine, there are always people in the clan who are not well-off, and this is naturally good from the clan!"
The elders of the clan nodded, and the voices of praise were intertwined.
Mrs. Wang lowered her head, adding up to only 100,000 taels, what use could it be! These people said it nicely, they didn't want to take advantage of Niangniang, but they didn't want to exert their strength! One day, they would beg to let Niangniang do something!
Jia Yu and his wife are also not happy, no matter how high the mother climbs, it is also a matter of the second room, but it is their big house that pays for it, even Jia Yu, who is not free of everything, also secretly thinks about whether to send his girl into the palace, but the two of them are not allowed to enter the palace together, that is, just think about it.
"In that case, the old man has more kindness here. Jia's mother was not very satisfied, only 100,000 taels, and it really couldn't get into Jia's mother's eyes. The obviously accentuated sound of "good intentions" was also heard by everyone.
Jia Jing ignored it, "We don't need to find a new land and buy a house, we have few families, there are many houses in the back, and there are no people in the back, so let's build a provincial villa in the back." "This amount of money is enough, and any more will provoke the emperor's eyes.
"Now, don't look at the emperor's accession to the throne, you will be stable, and don't think that the emperor will change the sky if he supports the prince again. This wind and rain will not stop for a while and a half, everyone should take care of their families and don't cause trouble for the clan!"
"Yes!
"It's not too early, let's go back to sleep!"
"Yes!" everyone dispersed.
The Jia family unified their opinions tonight, and they all decided to stay in obscurity and not participate in the affairs of the heavenly family. But wealth is ahead, can everyone really stop it?
It was getting late, Jia's mother left people to live, and after such an hour, the clan elders and the people of Ningfu did not shirk it, and followed the people of Rongfu to the wing room one by one. I didn't notice that the lights in Jia's mother's yard were on all the time.
Mother Jia leaned sideways on the pillow, Mandarin Duck took out a thin quilt from the cabinet, covered it on Mother Jia's legs, served pearl-brewed Lu'an melon slice tea, and then picked up the delicate and petite pear blossom wood hammer and tapped it gently.
Mother Jia adjusted her body, sucked a sip of tea, and sighed as if she enjoyed it, sure enough, she had a specialization in the art industry, not to mention that Zhang's service people were tired and panicked, even the people who were served were uncomfortable, but after all, she was not her junior, and she was not a maid with no identity, and at that time, no matter how uncomfortable she was, she could only endure it.
Seeing this, Chen asked softly,
"Old lady, it's not early at this time, it's been a busy day today, you must be tired too, why don't you rest early?"
Jia Mu shook her head, "No, I'm up at this age, and I already feel young, but after I get sleepy, I can't sleep anymore." Sit down, talk about it, what do you think?"
Jia Yu was originally a person in the nest, all the elders were there before, and they didn't dare to speak, this time, only his own family was left, and he hurriedly said,
"Mother, this big brother Jing is too unrighteous, just give a hundred thousand taels, we don't have much money in our house, we are using the silver money in the treasury, where will the money come from to build a provincial villa!"
Jia Mu was angry, "Listen, what is this called, with your big man, I am staring at the money in the house, you said that you respect the eldest brother and are not righteous, why didn't you say it just now, so that he could give more, here, what are you making a fuss?"
Mother Jia thought, this Jia Yu teases cats and dogs on weekdays, and indulges in women, is it all fake, and secretly stares at the furniture in the house? The more angry he became, this son has not been close to him since he was a child, he grew up beside the old goddess who was grinding himself, and the old goddess gave him all his life savings before she died, and she didn't leave any of her political son, and the title was attacked by him again, and the wealth and fame were given to him, and now he is just using the money in the public to build a villa for the second room, he is not happy, isn't this the glory of the whole house, speaking out, is he not stained with the lord of the lord? I have to stare at this idea of wealth, and when he goes for a hundred years in the future, he will not be able to hold the money in the house firmly, he is a grandson and a long, patriarchal, how to divide the big head is not an exaggeration, but being said by others does not know filial piety, but a person like him, where would he care about reputation? Jia Mu seems to have seen the scene of her upright Zheng'er and the well-behaved and intelligent Baoyu being swept out of the house, no, while she is still there, she still hurts the second room!
Since then, Jia's mother has become more and more inclined to the second room, and while Jia Yu is indignant, he doesn't know that he is already reckless at this time today, of course, this is also a later story.
Now, Jia's mother is angry, Jia Yu didn't dare to agree, and hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty. Seeing this, Chen also knelt to the side. Seeing his brother and sister-in-law kneeling, Jia Zheng and his wife also knelt down, and the maids who were waiting around them also knelt quietly. Suddenly, there was silence.
