Mrs. Wang learned that it had been a month since the death of the old man of the Xue family, and the letter of mourning arrived along with the letter of her sister-in-law. Although the old man of the Xue family left in a hurry, he was still properly arranged. His sister-in-law is married to the eldest son, so naturally most of the family business, along with the imperial businessman, also belonged to his house.

In this letter, her sister is still quite satisfied with the distribution of property, but she feels that the world is difficult now, and it is not easy to make a living. He also mentioned that his pair of children were praised. Mrs. Wang naturally took the letter to ask Jia's mother to show her, and she cooked it as usual.

Shi Fei'er naturally got the letter, but Dong Tong reported it to Jia's mother as soon as she got the news. The letter also said that the new head of the Xue family's style of acting also knew it to Jia's mother. It is said that he is only obsessed with elegant things, so that he can make friends with celebrities and customers, and he is not very concerned about this business. Shi Fei'er read the letter and understood it. Now the decline of the Xue family is much faster than in the book. If this is the case, I don't know if this Aunt Xue would have brought Xue Pan and Baochai to Beijing to join Jiafu earlier?

Shi Fei'er sat alone and thought wildly, she had been here for several years, and the four major families of Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue recorded in the book were a little different from now, but they had not changed much. Although they are still implicated in each other, it has to be said that there are fewer connections in them than in the book. In addition, now I am quite relieved that now this Jia Yu is in charge of the house, and the reputation of the house is also quite good.

Now these twelve hairpins have not yet been born except for Shi Xiangyun, Xichun and Sister Qiao, and the rest should be there, but some of them can be seen and some of them are not. It's a pity that this spring and spring exploration are still from whose belly should crawl out of whom. It's right to think about it, this is not something that can be changed by intervening yourself. This time, Shi Fei'er was curious whether this Jia Huan would come out of Aunt Zhao's belly. Now this Zhao Cuixing can't enter the second door, but he is just a hard labor in the firewood room, if this can be turned over again, Shi Fei'er can only sigh at the magic of fate. If this is the case, how much can he change the fate of these characters, Shi Fei'er has no confidence, and this fate is really unpredictable.

"Old lady, the eldest master is here. Yunhe came into the house to pray. Shi Fei'er is a little strange, she only asked Ann early in the morning, why did she come again?

"Old lady, old lady. Jia Yu entered the house in a hurry, and when he saw Yunhe standing on the side, he immediately closed his mouth. Shi Fei'er felt a little strange when she saw it, so she let Yunhe go by himself.

"I've only been here this morning, why are you here again at this time?" Shi Fei'er motioned for Jia Yu to sit down and said, "Every time you don't come to say hello regularly, something will happen." Tell me, what's going on today? Isn't your book "Examination of Ancient Appreciation Inscriptions and Rubbings" about to be published? If you have a book, bring me ten copies, and I'll give them away. ”

Jia Yu didn't do it, and said in a hurry: "The old lady said that the printing should be sent to you." Don't say ten books, even a hundred books are no problem. Jia Yu waved his hand and said, "It's not this today, I'm going to tell the old lady that this sister-in-law is going back to Beijing." ”

Hearing this, Shi Fei'er was stunned, five days ago, she also received a letter from Jia Min, which only mentioned the scenery and customs of Yangzhou. He also said that if it was a chance, he would also like to invite Jia's mother to take a walk, but there was not a word in this letter mentioning that he wanted to return to the capital?

"Back to Beijing, but there is another transfer?"

Jia Yu rubbed his hands and said hesitantly: "Old lady, don't worry, there may be a turn in this matter." ”

Hearing Jia Yu say this, Shi Fei'er was shocked, could it be that something happened to Lin Ruhai? ”

Jia Yu hesitated: "My sister-in-law was involved, saying that he colluded with salt merchants and instigated them to raise the price of salt; he was greedy for bribes to buy official positions; and he bullied local officials. The saint was furious and sent someone to escort him back to Beijing for a detailed trial. ”

Shi Fei'er was naturally stunned when she said this, and Jia Yu was also very anxious when she watched from the side: "Old lady, this matter has not been convicted yet, don't worry." ”

It's not so much a hurry as a wonder. Shi Fei'er's mind couldn't turn for a while, it stands to reason that Lin Ruhai should not be prosperous, according to the book, even if he dies in office in the end, it should be a few years later. And if it is according to the book, now that this Jia Min is good, why did Lin Ruhai have an accident first? Shi Fei'er couldn't figure it out at all.

"Don't worry, old lady. I'm going to go up and down. Now there is no conclusive conclusion, even if my sister-in-law returns to Beijing, it will still be tried, I know my sister-in-law's character, I think this matter must be inside, let's wait for the time being. Seeing that Jia's mother was silent, Jia Yu hurriedly spoke of relief.

"What about the family?" asked Shi Fei'er.

"I didn't mention this. Jia Yu paused, "It's just a matter of routine, and I ordered him to stay in the mansion for the time being, and he was not allowed to leave the mansion." ”

Shi Fei'er nodded, this incident came suddenly, but it was really powerful, if Lin Ruhai was really convicted, then the family members of Jia Min, Xuan Nan, Xuan Hua, and Daiyu would be even worse.

"You have been careful these days, Lin Ruhai has been an official for many years, and the sea is up and down, so you should know how to be serious. This matter is sudden, I don't know what the situation is inside, you wait to see if someone sends a letter from Yangzhou to the house, if there is one, send it to me immediately. Send some more people to Yangzhou, and don't do anything else, just in case. Shi Fei'er frowned and explained.

"Don't worry, old lady, I'll take care of this. Jia Yu said again: "Although I don't want you to know about this matter, I am also afraid that this news will be messy, and when you know it, it will be out of shape, and it will be even more urgent at that time." Either way, don't be in a hurry. I'll let you know as soon as I have any news. ”

Shi Fei'er nodded when she heard this, this matter was really urgent. I'll have to wait and see what happens. Jia Yu comforted Jia's mother again before leaving. Shi Fei'er thought about the whole matter again alone, and felt even more strange.

The Lin Mansion is not short of money, whether it is the ancestral industry or the Yulu, Lin Ruhai is not small, and he has a livelihood cooperation with Jia Min, which is also good, and even Dong Tong's store and Qian Zhuang Jia Min also have shares. After such careful calculation, the Lin Mansion will never be short of money. Moreover, Lin Ruhai himself has seen it, this person looks a little bold, and it doesn't seem like he has lost his principles for money. On the other hand, most of these crimes are related to this money, neither lack of money, but also do not love money, why do such a thing? Shi Fei'er couldn't understand. Was he framed by someone this time? Or was he blamed? Or was this Lin Ruhai really like this? Shi Fei'er couldn't think of a clue.

On the one hand, Jia Yu was busy making points, and on the other hand, he sent someone to Yangzhou to see if he could find out anything. When Lin Ruhai was escorted to Beijing, it was already a month later.

Although Lin Ruhai was escorted back to Beijing, his family was still in Yangzhou. When Jia Yu heard that he had arrived in Beijing, he wanted to visit, but because he was only a suspect and had not been imprisoned, Jia Yu had no choice but to use the silver. spent a thousand taels in vain to go out, but he didn't even see a human face.

At this time, the whole house already knew about it, so they were not in a hurry. Only Mrs. Wang was a little happy. I secretly thought that in the past, my family did not get half a benefit from Lin Ruhai's promotion. Besides, Jia Min has pressed herself all the time, and now if Lin Ruhai is guilty, she will definitely become a sinner, and she will still be proud at that time. Now this big house is also very close to it, and this incident is naturally like a broken arm. However, thinking that the family business in this house is rich, and most of them will return to the big house in the future, I am also very distressed.

However, although the big house has the advantage of everything, after all, the official career is average. Jia Yu is just a false position, and Jia Hu Jia Lian has not yet entered school, if he loses Lin Ruhai's arm, it will also have an impact on this Jia Hu Jia Lian in the future. And his brother Wang Ziteng is quite good, and even this Jia Zhen is also having good luck under his command. Now that Jia Zhu has entered the school, it is very possible to go further in a few years, but it is a pity that this business is too small and wronged, if there is a way to divide some of the family business of the big house.

Mrs. Wang pondered herself, and it happened that on this day, Mrs. Zhu of Ningguo Mansion and her grandson Jia Rong came to visit, and the two chatted, and Mrs. Wang expressed her admiration for her ability to take charge of a mansion. Mrs. Zhu was so smart that she didn't understand the calculation in Mrs. Wang's heart, and said: "You are also a good person, and this housekeeper is also a good hand." It's just a pity that there is no place to do it. But your royal family is good at raising their daughters, if you can kiss and kiss again, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing?"

Hearing Mrs. Zhu's words, Mrs. Wang was stunned. Seeing that she hadn't understood yet, Mrs. Zhu said again: "Now this Zhu'er and Hu'er are not too small, and they should be married in a blink of an eye, but I think your Wang family girl is good." It's a pity that Jia Zhen is unlucky, who let him go so much older? Jia Rong is too young, so it seems that he is also unlucky. ”

This could not be clearer. Mrs. Wang naturally understands that if the daughter of the Wang family marries into the big house of Jiafu to be Jia Hu's daughter-in-law, she is her aunt, as long as she can handle it, she will naturally have a lot of benefits. After all, in the future, this big house will also go to Jia Hu, and at that time, it is reasonable that this big house will also take care of itself.

Mrs. Wang's little abacus in her heart is good, but she can calculate it by herself, how can she marry the daughter of the Wang family into the big house, but she can't have the final say.

Now that Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Zhang are here, it is not their turn to be an aunt to arrange other people's son's relatives. Besides, there's a shrewd old lady over there, and even if those two pass, she won't have a good time. Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang was embarrassed again.

"I just heard you praise the daughter of the Wang family, but how do others know. After all, it's good to be close to each other, but it's also difficult. ”

Mrs. Zhu said with a smile: "If you look around in front of you, you will naturally be familiar if you are not familiar." People □□ so they are just intimate and familiar, if I want to say that the number of daughters of the Wang family is too small, otherwise I am afraid that the old lady will already be remembered. ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang had an idea in her heart.
