Since the saint appointed Jia Yu as the head of the Department of Rites and Ceremonies, Jia Yu went to the yamen every morning on an errand and did not mention it. Only on the second day, Jia's mother didn't have time to get the news of Lai's mother, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry had already come, and it was said that it was also the former Guogong Mansion, and now even if it is not, it is also a first-class general's mansion, and Jia Yu and Jia Zheng are still serving in the Ministry of Rites and Industry, so the people who came are also very polite, but they will record the violations one by one, and then the Ministry of Industry will send people to dismantle them one by one according to the records. Except for the plaque at the door that has changed from the Rongguo Mansion to the First-Class General's Mansion, the regulations of the Rongxi Hall have not changed much, but they have been slightly renovated, and nothing else has changed.

However, everyone who came knew that it was not Jia Yu, a first-class general, who lived in the main courtyard of this general's mansion, but Jia Zheng, a member of the Wupin Ministry of Labor. Of course, most of the people who are of sufficient grade know it, but they only take it as a joke and don't say it to offend people, but where do these seven- and eight-grade officials get the news of these wealthy compounds on weekdays? As a result, the matter spread among these low-level officials.

Jia Zheng sees only five or six or even seven or eight petty officials in the yamen every day, and now everyone looks at him strangely, even if these individuals don't say it in front of him, in the end it still lets Jia Zheng know, originally Jia Zheng thought that he was the son of the prince of the country, and these poor officials were embarrassed in the yamen, but in more than ten years, they were promoted from six to five to avoid it. Now looking at the eyes of these people, I feel that I can't stay anymore, so I have less time to go to the yamen, except for the occasional thought, most of them talk about poetry and painting with the Qing guests at home, and basically don't go to the yamen.

In his heart, he was even more annoyed by Jia Yu, but he was a righteous gentleman, and he couldn't talk about people's mistakes behind his back, so he didn't say anything in his heart, but his eyes became more and more cold. But it happened that Baoyu was nine years old in two months, and Jia Zheng called him in for nothing, or took the homework, and if he was slightly unsatisfactory, he would be scolded to vent his depression.

Originally, looking at this matter, it should have calmed down so much, who would have thought that someone from the household department would come this day, saying that it was to take back Yitian, Jia's mother almost fainted when she heard it, but Mrs. Wang couldn't help but be glad that she had planned to sell some of it, but because the letter to Xue Wang's family who was far away in Jinling had not been replied to, this was not sold, otherwise this son would not know what to do. Even so, she was so frightened that her face was pale and cold sweat broke out, she didn't understand, how could a good ancestral property have to be taken back?

This is also the reason why the daughter of the Wang family is illiterate. The so-called ancestral property is actually the Yitian that the founding emperor gave to Jia Yuan, the original Rongguo Gong, when it was divided. This Jia Yuan should have been taken back after his death, but Jia Dai was good at fighting, and he made meritorious service to keep the title of Rongguo Gong, and he was not demoted when he attacked the knight, so there was no need to take it back. But in the end, this is given by the state, not private, and now this Jia Yu has only attacked the first-class general, so naturally he has to re-measure and take back part of it.

But the emperor didn't want to, so he took back all the original Yitian. In Baoding Mansion, he newly measured Yitian, a first-class general, Jia Yu. Although it will be much less in Baoding than Jinling, it is not necessarily much more fertile. But originally, these fields were all in the hands of Jia Zheng and his family. Now the first-class general Yitian after the new measurement, it is his own, and he is firmly in his own hands. Is there anyone Jia Yu is unwilling? Don't mention how beautiful it is.

Jia Yu is beautiful, but the people in the clan are gone, although those Yitian before are Rongguo Mansion, but they also have to take out a lot to repair the ancestral hall, support the lonely old in the clan, and the clan can also get a lot of benefits from it, now the Baoding Mansion is not so simple, first of all, there are still many people in the clan who stay in Jinling, Jinling also has the ancestral property of Ningguo Mansion that needs to be taken care of, the ancestral house and the like are also over there, and there is no reason to move to Baoding for the little Yitian in Jia Yu's hands, Moreover, after this is newly measured and divided, will Jia Amnesty take out the account books and land deeds and other things and hand them over to the public middle school, if they don't hand them over to the public middle school, they will not be able to intervene, so they have gone to Jia's mother's house.

Jia's mother is also worried about this matter, and wants to find Jia Yu to come over, he stayed in the yamen all day and Jia's mother couldn't catch anyone, and now the people from the household department have taken away all the 'ancestral property' land deeds from Mrs. Wang, but they didn't give her the land deed assigned to Jia Yu. These clan elders are here again, it's strange that Jia Mu can have a good face! So he was angry and didn't care about anything else, these clan elders were also elders in the clan, so Mother Jia asked Mrs. Xing to call her over. Mrs. Xing was very startled when she entered the house and saw a room, and hurriedly looked down at the floor, and respectfully saluted Jia's mother before saying, "I don't know what the old lady is calling her daughter-in-law to do?" The daughter-in-law is a woman, and the Taoist family doesn't know anything. After saying that, he lowered his head even lower.

Mother Jia was so angry, her knife-like eyes swept around Mrs. Xing, and when she saw Xing standing there looking at her low eyebrows, she didn't speak, so she held back her anger and said, "What about the land deed drawn by the eldest master?" Mrs. Xing obviously didn't expect that so many people gathered here for this matter, but fortunately she didn't see it anyway, and Jia Yu didn't say anything when she went home, so she said with peace of mind: "My daughter-in-law doesn't know, and my lord didn't talk about it when he came home." Seeing that the Xing family was so arrogant, not to mention Jia's mother's face, even the elders on the side changed their faces, and decided that they didn't intend to hand it over.

Jia Daixiu, who had the hottest temper, couldn't help but say, "How could you not know?!" Don't think we don't know! Xing's face was full of grievances and said, "The old lady has to be the master of her daughter-in-law!" The daughter-in-law is just a house-filler, what will the lord say to the daughter-in-law? Even after following the master all these years, the master has never told his daughter-in-law anything? When he thought of his grievances, he really shed tears.

Mother Jia hasn't said anything yet, Jia Daixiu is gone, she just said a word, she and her husband have reaped the benefits, and Yixi is crying here? So he was even more angry: "Don't you think that I don't know your fancy intestines, but I just took the livelihood of the clan in exchange for my own future, and now the future has also changed, and I have to swallow some benefits alone, so it can be seen that I didn't take the old and young masters of the clan in my eyes!" Jia Dairu is not in a hurry to manage the school in the clan, anyway, he is not in charge of taking this field back, but he can take it out and he can share it, and after thinking about it, he said: "Forgive your daughter-in-law, don't worry, think about what Yu'er handed over to you today, you don't know the details." Jia Dairu said implicitly, didn't she still ask her to take out the land deed of Yitian? It's a pity that she really didn't have it, and she hadn't heard of it. Even if there is, it won't be taken out!

Xing just cried and knelt in front of Jia's mother and didn't answer these people, after all, there was still Jia's mother above. Mother Jia has always known her son, and when she saw Xing's appearance like this, she knew that she really didn't know, so she said: "You go back and stay, I will let people wait for the eldest master at the door." You don't have to be involved in this. "Xing thought to himself, I have never been involved in this matter, which of your affairs in Rongguo Mansion has my part? I only sent the maid and aunt out some time ago, and it was still a person from my own courtyard, so I couldn't be considered involved in the affairs of Rongguo's mansion. But he didn't say much, and cried: "Mrs. Xie is considerate, and the daughter-in-law will go back first." After speaking, he was about to leave, and Jia Daixiu immediately stood up! But before he could speak, Jia Mu said: "You also know the temper of Yu'er. Where is Xing's ability to manage? Even I, too, can't control him anymore. Hearing Mother Jia say this, she thought that she couldn't offend this old woman, so she sat down and didn't mention it.

When Jia Yu returned to the house, Jia Daixiu and a few other clan elders didn't know how many bowls of tea they had drunk, and when they heard that the porter had sent someone to greet Jia Yu back to the house, they were so excited that even their eyes were red.

Jia Yu still did not walk from the gate of the current first-class general's mansion of Rongguo Mansion according to his original habit, and only entered through the black lacquered gate opened by himself, and he didn't want to wait here for everyone when he arrived at the door. Lai everyone's is also an understanding person, although now he is the second house of the master, but after all, the big house has taken the title, and now he is also in the ministry as an errand, and Jia Lian has the support of Lin Ruhai, the second minister of the dynasty, although it is only a false position, but the position of patrolling the salt imperial history is a lot of fat difference, so I don't want to offend Jia Yu, and after stopping Jia Yu, he respectfully saluted before saying: "The old lady invites the eldest master to go." After speaking, he took two steps closer and whispered: "Today, someone from the household department has received the ancestral land deed, and the clan elders have come, and the old lady has called the eldest lady first." After a while, the eldest lady came out crying, and the old lady asked the little one to wait here for the eldest master. A few words made things clear. Jia Yu had a plan in his heart, so he got back in the car and went to the main entrance, and passed through the old lady's house from the main courtyard.

Many people in the clan couldn't wait, and it was when Amber hit the curtain when they were upset; Inside, he said, "The big master is here." All of a sudden, these individuals became excited, thinking that they were elders, and they opened their mouths, and Jia Yu had no reason not to agree.

But when he saw Jia Yu enter the house and bow down to Jia's mother to say goodbye, he got up and asked, "I don't know if my mother asked someone to wait for her son at the door, but there is something wrong with calling my son over?" My son still has some official business to deal with. As soon as Jia Yu finished saying this, Jia Mu was angry! "Can't I call you over?" Your brother is also on an errand in the ministry, and I haven't seen him so busy as you are, and he can't go home. ”

Jia Mu's words made Jia Yu sneer in his heart, so what serious thing will Jia Zheng do? didn't say so in his mouth, but said: "The second brother has been an errand boy in the ministry for many years, and he has long been familiar with it, and his son has been dull and greedy for many years, and now he has an errand." Everything has not been sorted out, and there are a lot of places to learn, so I am busy. Jia's mother heard him say that he was not as satisfied as the youngest son, he was self-aware, and in Jia's mother's heart, Jia pardon was not as good as Jia Zheng.

Mother Jia was happy in her heart, so she no longer dwelled on this matter, and took a sip of tea before saying: "The ancestral property divided by the emperor has been recovered by the household department, and the re-measured division should also be handed over to the public middle school." Since I am here, there is no reason to separate the family, and there is no reason for you to hide it if I am not separated. Do you understand this? "The high-sounding Jia Yu said by Mother Jia, how did she not know that this was in the eccentric second room?

On his face, Jia Yu said inconspicuously: "My son understands." It's just that now this Yitian has not been measured, and the land deed has not been handed over to his son. Everyone in the clan realized that they had come early, if they were calm, they didn't have to come at all, their faces were a little embarrassed, they played with the fan, and the tea was drunk, even if they had been drinking all afternoon, they were embarrassed to stare at Jia Yu again.

Thinking of the appearance of the Xing family at noon, I felt even more embarrassed in my heart. I don't know how this Jia Yu will describe them when he goes back to Xing, and he can't help but glance at Jia Daixiu, especially Jia Dairu, he is the same generation as Jia Daixiu, but his own room has never touched this ancestral property, and looking at Jia Daixiu's eyes is a little intriguing.

Jia Mu didn't care about this, and she had peace of mind to stand up in front of the clan elders, lest these individuals really take themselves seriously, and she didn't know who was the real one in charge in this mansion, so she continued to Jia Yu: "Since you understand me, I won't say anything about you, and it is right to take the deed back and hand it over to the public school." Jia Yu was not angry in his heart, but he also bowed down and said: "I remember my mother's teachings, my son is awake." ”

At this time, Jia's mother felt that this eldest son was still very sensible, but Jia Lian didn't know what crooked reasoning he learned outside and deceived him, so this happened. So I was even more dissatisfied with Jia Lian in my heart. Of course, she never thought that this was taught by her daughter and son-in-law to Jia Lian, it was her own daughter, and she was the one who hurt her the most among these children.

Thinking about it, Fang Fang said to Jia Yu: "You can rest assured that you can go on an errand, and if you don't understand, go and ask your brother." Jia Yu was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, but he could only bow his head and say, "Yes, my son can wake up." Seeing that Jia Yu was respectful, Jia Mu glanced at those clan elders and said, "So you can go, you can remember what I said in your heart." Jia Yu had no choice but to retire.

After Jia Yu left, the elders of the clan immediately complied: "The old lady still teaches her son well, and the pardon is also a filial piety." Now that one of his two brothers is in the Ministry of Rites and the other is in the Ministry of Works, they will be able to support each other in the future. The old lady was satisfied when she heard this, but she didn't show it on her face: "What kind of godson has a good way, he hasn't greeted me before, and I don't know who instigated me to do this thing that corrupts the foundation of the ancestors." After speaking, she sighed, in fact, Mrs. Jia really didn't put this matter down, and she was angry. In her mind, those things would be given to Baoyu in the future, but now they were taken back for nothing.

Not to mention what those clan elders and Jia's mother thought in their hearts, Jia Yu was angry at this time, but he still learned a lot these days on an errand in the Ministry of Rites, and he didn't show it on his face.

Back in the east courtyard, Mrs. Xing greeted her and said, "The master is back." After speaking, he hurriedly waited for Jia Yu to change out of his official uniform and put on his homely clothes, and poured a cup of tea for Jia Yu, seeing that Jia Yu looked gloomy but did not get angry, he said: "I just had lunch at noon today, and the mandarin duck in the old lady's house came over and said that the old lady called me over. Speaking of this, seeing that Jia Yu didn't raise his eyelids, he continued: "As soon as I entered the house, I asked me to hand over the land deed of Yitian, saying that it was exchanged for ancestral property, and we couldn't be complacent." I'm glad I didn't leave it here, otherwise I wouldn't know how it would have ended. ”

In fact, Mrs. Xing was also tempting at this time, wondering where those Tian Qijia amnesties were placed. But I heard Jia Yu sneer: "Go back to the household department and send it down, give it to them, anyway, it's something that has been stored in the household department, who would dare to move it?" It's just to deduct some money, and when the old lady returns to heaven in the future, won't she have to pay it back to the master? ”

Jia Yu has already thought it through, anyway, those things are recorded in the household department, so that their benefits for a few years are, why bother to make trouble this time and get a name for being unfilial? I can't afford to be guilty of this crime! Even if he is not promising, there is still Lian'er. That kid is now learning from Lin Ruhai, a tanhualang, and the future is limitless. You can't ruin your reputation for this idea, and you will be a burden to your son in the future! So most of the anger in Jia Yu's heart disappeared.

really let Jia Yu guess correctly, if Mrs. Wang dared to sell it secretly or move it into her private room before, now she doesn't dare. It was only now that she learned that these so-called ancestral properties were actually given by the royal family, and when she said that she would take them back, they would be taken back, and they were all in the household department! Didn't you see that those people from the household department were holding the brochure of the household department in their hands today? The deed was received only after one point was correct. So the thoughts about these 'ancestral properties' have been resting early, but I also look down on this mansion more and more in my heart, it turns out that everything is empty! The huge Guogong Mansion is not worth the convenience of sweeping through the cracks of his mother's house. Jia Yu can be regarded as inadvertently exempting the future Mrs. Wang from a crime.
