Chapter 125: Chilblains

But after Jia Jing's death, Jia Zhen is not a smart person, and he has to be honored by the Rong Mansion to be the future glory and wealth of the Jia family**, in addition, Concubine Jia is getting older, her favor is gradually lost, and she has no heirs under her knees.

Even so, Jia Zhen and the others are not stupid enough to give the entire family furniture, and they are not their own daughters, it will really hurt their muscles and bones, but after the house is raided, there is no windfall in the family, so they can only stay in Rongfu.

As soon as Jia Jingfu was reborn, after carefully thinking about the suspicion of the destruction of the Ning Mansion, he quietly investigated the big housekeeper of Lai Erlai, who was deeply trusted by him, Lai Erguo was selfish, although he did not directly touch the property of the Ning Mansion, but kept improving the people related to the Lai family to take on the important responsibilities of the treasury and other places in the Ning Mansion.

And the main line of the Lai family is in the Rong Mansion, Jia Jing can't help but be shocked, after he went for more than ten or twenty years, Lai Er has always been in the position of the chief housekeeper of the Ning Mansion, and for many years, with Jia Zhen's wife of a small family, You Shi, the family has moved out, and she doesn't know that she has become a vassal of the Rong Mansion.

In this way, Jia Jing took Lai Er down, and the rest of the Lai family, without this support, was not as strong as the power in Ningfu day by day, and most of them fell into Zhuangzi, but as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and it is also a big Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing in Zhuangzi, and the master may come to play Zhuangzi.

The Lai family still wants to take advantage of the time when the master comes to play, so that they can hold the master happy, and then go back to Beijing in a beautiful way! It's just that there are a lot of things to do in Ningguo's mansion, and the master doesn't like to go out to play, so after waiting for so many years, he waited for the arrival of Jia Lu and Jia Rong, which is naturally very eager.

Lai Zhuangtou's mother-in-law was an interesting person, and knew that Jia Lu and Jia Rong had come down to play, so she led the two of them around to play.

This Zhuangzi is big, not only has hundreds of acres of fields, a small horse farm, raising one or twenty ponies, a hill planted with fruit trees, and a small hot spring eye, Lai Zhuangtou is clever, let people chisel out a hot spring pool, not big, Jia Lu is obsessed with this, just now just after the end of winter, the spring is cold, and the bubble pool is comfortable.

Jia Rong was embarrassed to rob Jia Lu as an aunt, and the pool was small, so she went elsewhere.

Lai Zhuangtou took Jia Rong to ride a horse, Jia Rong's skin was thin and delicate, and after riding for a day, her skin was worn out, and she was unwilling to ride again.

Lai Zhuangtou coaxed him to hunt in the mountains again, because there were few animals in the spring, Lai Zhuangtou also bought a lot of pheasants and hares, put them on the mountain, and let him hunt and play, but Jia Rong was not Jia Qiang, a rough person, and he was not interested in hunting, but he responded twice, but Lai Zhuangtou was distressed enough.

Later, when I was wandering around, I saw the man wearing a coarse cloth and a short beating with a hoe and struck this hard land, this spring was bitterly cold, and there was no heavy rain or snow in winter, the land was clumped, and a hoe went down and shook back, only to see that their hands were red, swollen and cracked, and every time they hammered, the cracks on their hands were one or two minutes deep, and they oozed blood slightly, and in this cold weather, they coagulated into blood clots.

Jia Rong was born in a wealthy family, although she thinks that she is not a child of a gentleman, but she also chooses food and clothing every day, and she has a hand stove and a stove to prepare, and at home, the warm pavilion is burning every day, and she never thought that someone would be working in such a weather when her hands were frozen and cracked.

In an instant, Jia Rong felt that the hand stove in her hand was too hot to pick it up, so she immediately went down to the ridge and stopped the man.

When the man saw this fair-skinned boy in brocade clothes and knew that he was the young master of the main family, he was about to kneel down and ask for peace, where could Jia Rong bear to let him kneel on the cold and hard ground again, and immediately supported him.

"Uncle doesn't have to be like this, just take it and cover your hands!" he said, handing out the hand stove.

The man looked at this delicate thing like a woman, and said with a smile,

"Young master, take it back! Your thing is too hot, my hand will rot if I touch it again, but it won't rot, and if my hand is hot, it will be itchy and painful, and I won't be able to do my job." ”

Jia Rong hadn't heard of covering his hands yet, so he just excused himself and said, "Then you don't use a hand stove with this hand, so how can you deal with it?"

The man glanced at his red, swollen and cracked hands, smiled indifferently, "It's good to wipe it with chili water!"

"Spicy, chili water!" Jia Rong was dumbfounded when she heard this, and she almost choked on herself.

He knew that there was a punishment in the court, which was to soak the wound with chili pepper water, and he looked at the ravines and ravines in the man's hands, and there was still a person who took the initiative to be punished?

The man followed his gaze and saw the wound on his hand, and knew that he was thinking badly, so he said,

"These mouths naturally can't be soaked in chili water, otherwise the pain will definitely be alive or dead, just let the mother-in-law go to the chili water to wipe the places without wounds repeatedly, so that it can be better. Our frostbite is the most taboo to roast with fire, soak in hot water, or contact hot things with cold. ”

Jia Rong listened to him secretly, and didn't dare to insist on giving the man a hand stove anymore, he dabbled in a wide range of things, and he had read a lot of remote books such as "Qi Min's Technique", but he didn't tell him what the people were like, what kind of fields to plant, how many acres to plant, how to plant, how to harvest, how to eat at home, and asked one by one in curiosity.

Listening to the suffering of the people, Jia Rong couldn't help but feel ashamed.

When they were nervous about participating in the examination, the minions in the village were worried about the plummeting temperature, and this season's crops might not be harvested;

When I was watching "study hard" and had no appetite to eat, a child as big as Jia Lu here was fighting for a bite to eat, and a "child" of my size was working hard to rescue the crops in the field.

If Jia Rong still had a little bit of the sour and rotten spirit of a scholar before, now it has been worn away by what he has seen and heard.

Maybe he will continue to take the imperial examination, become an official, sell goods and the emperor's family for the glory of his family, but at least, he knows where the "anointing sorghum" of his children comes from, and what the people who bear these "anointing sorghum" are eating, drinking, and doing.

And at this time, he also understood what his grandfather and others arranged these things for, in order to let himself put down the book and relax, but this was by no means his grandfather's idea, he probably wanted to let himself experience what these books did not have, and those who were officials were the most easily ignored, but they could not be ignored.

Despite this, Jia Rong still felt very frustrated, and in addition to being ashamed, she asked Lai Zhuangtou to fetch a hoe and follow the man to try to farm.

Lai Zhuangtou disliked him in his heart for not knowing good things, and did some muddy work, but he wanted to please Jia Rong instead of disobeying him, so he naturally followed him.

When Jia Lu was comfortable and bored, she went to find Jia Rong, and was startled by Jia Rong.
