After supper, everyone rested in various places. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The next day, Jia Lian didn't go to the Qinglou anymore. He has been turning left and right beside Lin Mo since the morning, either talking about some flower streets and willow alleys, how the rouge powder is doing, or talking about the fun of cockfighting and horse running. He expected that Lin Mo was just an ordinary scholar, as long as he was tempted to go out with him, then spend some silver and set up a few sets for him to get into, so he wouldn't be able to control the Lin family in Suzhou and force them to withdraw from Lin Ruhai's family property competition.

It's a pity that the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny. From morning to evening, Lin Mo either went to the front hall to accompany the guests who came to mourn, or plunged into Lin Ruhai's study. I really couldn't stand Jia Lian's nonsense, so I simply opened the book, pulled Jia Lian's sleeve, and told him the "Book of Filial Piety" and "The Book of Rites" for a whole afternoon:

"Confucius said: 'The bereavement of a filial son is also, the service is uneasy, the pleasure is unpleasant, and the food is unwilling,' the second master of the Jia family and I came to mourn Uncle Lin, and the behavior should be according to etiquette, how can it be contaminated with those smoky miasma places in Willow Lane, Huajie? Moreover, a gentleman should be careful in cultivating his mind, and should not indulge in wine and fun......"

quoted scriptures like this, and talked endlessly for more than two hours, until Jia Lian's face turned green when he heard it, and he fled in a hurry. Who knew that after dinner, Lin Mo came to look for Jia Lian again, and looking at that look, he was going to talk to him at night. Jia Lian was so frightened that he didn't even dare to show his face, and drove Wang'er outside to spread the word:

"Our grandfather said: Lin Gongzi's golden words are deafening and deafening, so that our father is like being enlightened and enlightened. But it's getting late today, and our lord has already rested because of the wind and cold because of the water and soil. Discuss knowledge with Lin Gongzi on a later day. ”

Lin Mo's face was as usual, and he said with some regret: "Since I am in poor health, then I will learn from the second master of the Jia family another day, please convey Lin Mo's condolences." ”

After speaking, he still went back to Lin Ruhai's study.

Jia Lian saw from the window that Lin Mo had really walked away, and kicked Wang'er who came in: "Discuss it on a certain day!" Did you talk about any bullshit with him on a later day? Let you talk nonsense! ......" kicked away the anger, and then kicked again, causing Wang'er to beg for mercy again and again.

Daiyu and Aunt Ye were discussing the matter of the shop. The coffin will be sent back to Suzhou tomorrow, and it is necessary to know how to arrange the shops in Yangzhou City, how to appease people's hearts, etc. The specific method, in fact, the housekeeper has already taken out the charter, just waiting for Daiyu and Aunt Ye to take a look and nod in agreement.

Daiyu discussed with Aunt Ye, and sure enough, she instructed the housekeeper to act according to the charter, and asked to raise the monthly money of the guys in the shops everywhere by 30%, and add an extra bonus to all the shopkeepers, so as to settle people's hearts, so as not to take the opportunity for other shops to come and poach people.

The butler took the order, and went to tell the articulate servant and his companion to ride horseback and spread the word to the shops.

Daiyu and her aunt looked at the account book to check if there were any omissions in various utensils. For example, Lin Ruhai's collection of all kinds of treasures and antiques, precious calligraphy and painting books, and various daily necessities to be used on the road are expected to be loaded with more than a dozen cars. In addition, the girl's mother-in-law and the little maid need to use how many carriages and how to arrange food and accommodation on the road have been carefully discussed for half a night.

As for the furniture that can't be moved, most of the furnishings and playthings, Daiyu asked the housekeeper to transport them to the shop one after another to sell, leaving only a few things that Lin Ruhai and Jia Min loved before their deaths to take with them. Even so, it was reduced and reduced, and the next day it was sorted out, and when the coffin was transported out of Yangzhou City, it was followed by a full thirty carriages.

The people who came to see him off were Lin Ruhai's former colleagues, and they knew that the Lin family now only had a ten-year-old widow and aunt in charge of the family, so they all watched from afar, and only let their own daughters come forward to condole. Daiyu and Aunt Ye thanked the female relatives of one official after another, and inevitably cried a few more times, and said goodbye to everyone who came to see them off one by one.

The carriage and horses went to Suzhou.

When he set off in the afternoon, Jia Lian ordered Wang'er to hire a small carriage with cushions, bedding and foot stoves. After leaving the city, no one bothered him, the second master of the Jia family was comfortably crooked in the carriage, and he just hated that he couldn't bring a girl over to relieve the fire.

Jia Lian lifted the window and saw that Lin Mo was riding in a shabby ox cart with the old servant he brought not far behind. The luggage and bedding were bundled in two and placed on the cart board, and Lin Mo sat on the wheel of the ox cart, holding a scroll in one hand, reading fascinated.

Sour rot scholar. Jia Lian secretly cursed in his heart, put down the curtain and went back to the car, bored in his heart.

When he came to Yangzhou City, he thought that Lin Ruhai had left such a big family business, which was a good opportunity for him to show his strength and make a windfall. Before leaving Jinling, Jia Lian sent Wang'er to make an appointment with the Xue family and the Wang family, and just waited for the Lin family to take over the power of the family, and sold the shops everywhere to the Xue and Wang families cheaply. In addition to bringing the bulk of the cash back to Rongguo Mansion for business, he was also able to make a lot of money.

But people are not as good as heaven, Daiyu returned to the Salt Imperial History Mansion for only two or three days, as if she had changed as a person, and she had picked up her mind about everything. In the inner courtyard, an old concubine of Lin Ruhai came out to preside over the middle feed, and the housekeeper in the outer courtyard could not splash water, and he was not allowed to interfere at all if it was related to money and things, and he really became an idler who came to mourn and cry.

Jia Lian secretly thought: If you want to earn the Lin family's property, you still have to work hard from Daiyu.

He prepared a belly of coercion and temptation, starting from the relationship between his aunt and uncle, and then pulling Jia's mother's tiger skin, bringing Mrs. Wang's guise, selling Baoyu and so on. When I was typing the draft, I carved every word in my heart several times, and I was almost moved to tears. As long as the obnoxious old concubine left by Lin Ruhai was not by Daiyu's side, he had the confidence to use his means to make Daiyu trust the Jia family wholeheartedly again.

Jia Lian believes that Daiyu, a little girl who is pampered in the house and does not worry about food and clothing, cannot understand the financial and economic gains and losses. As long as he finds an opportunity to play the emotional card, comforts an orphan girl who has lost her parents with the family affection of Jiafu, and then takes advantage of the situation to take over Lin Ruhai's inheritance, it is a matter of hand.

At that time, whether it is the Suzhou Lin family, or the old concubine and housekeeper of Lin Ruhai, who is an eyesore, it will not be able to become any climate.

Using family affection to calculate the property of an orphan girl is extremely shameless, but it is also extremely effective.

In the previous life, not only Daiyu, but even Lin Ruhai also believed in the Jia family, but what happened to him! It's just that he didn't expect that this time his abacus was destined to fail.
