The emperor stopped laughing and asked solemnly: "Listening to Ji Yun say this, Ruhai is also the meaning of that girl?" ”
Huang Jiyun was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "This minister really doesn't know, but I think that Brother Ruhai shouldn't be involved in that girl." After speaking, Huang Jiyun thought about it and said, "But it can't be ruled out that the girl once mentioned something to Brother Ruhai." ”
After hearing this, the emperor nodded, and said with a bitter smile in his eyes: "In this way, I have raised so many ministers, but they are not as effective as such a girl?!" As he spoke, the emperor picked up the stack of silver tickets on the dragon case again and shook it in his hand. Seeing this, Huang Jiyun didn't know what to say.
The concubines outside the palace didn't know what the emperor said in the imperial study. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will not dare to spend money like flowing water and build a garden and Zhuangzi.
At this time, Jiafu had already taken back the new drawings from the Ministry of Industry, replanned the layout, and the courtyard where Jia Yu lived was also set on the southwest side of the courtyard, separated from the provincial garden by a wall, and the stables in front of him were also moved. Except for the big courtyard of Jiafu, it looks like a small three-entry house.
Because Jia Yu wanted to be on an errand, Jia Zheng took office outside Beijing. The general's mansion is run inside and outside by Jia Lian. And over there, Ning Guofu, Jia Zhen has always been a careless person.
Such a good opportunity, how could Jia Lian miss it? When Mrs. Jia proposed to hire Gusu to teach and then buy a little girl, Jia Lian said: "You can also handle the purchase of musical instruments." ”
Mrs. Jia has always been in Gusu and must be familiar, so she asked, "Is there anyone you are familiar with?" ”
Jia Lian didn't play in those years, and he blindly studied seriously, where can he be familiar with anything? But at this time, Jia Lian frowned and thought about it, but said: "It's not enough to say how ripe it is, but I probably know it, but now it's like this in the house, but I can't leave." ”
Mrs. Jia said disapprovingly: "Don't get in the way, just say it, write a letter, and send someone to invite it." Jia Lian smiled and said: "The old lady said so, why don't I arrange someone to go over together, wouldn't it be cheaper?" ”
Mrs. Jia did not doubt him, and when she heard Jia Lian say this, she nodded and said, "This is very good, then you will arrange a reliable person, invite the teacher back, and buy girls, as well as musical instruments." ”
Jia Lian asked again: "I don't know where to buy the candles and lanterns and curtains of various colors, and where does the silver move?" ”
Mrs. Jia thought about it and called Lai Da to ask, Lai Da smiled and said: "Back to the old lady's words, I think that I don't have to bring this silver from Beijing, I don't have to work hard." ”
Saying that, Lai Da raised his eyes and looked at Jia Lian, then at Mrs. Jia, and then said, "The Zhen family in Jiangnan still has 50,000 silver from us. Tomorrow, write a letter and ask the second master's people to bring it, and pay 30,000 yuan for hiring teachers, buying girls, and buying musical instruments, and the remaining 20,000 yuan will be saved as the cost of buying candles and lanterns and curtains of various colors. ”
Jia Lian just stood aside without knowing and didn't speak, and the old lady Jia thought about it and nodded and smiled: "That's a good idea." So be it. Jia Lian bowed and saluted in response to this matter.
Turning around, Jia Lian found Jia Zhen again, and asked Jia Qiang to follow Zhao Tianliang and Xing'er, take the letter to Zhen's house, and go south. By the time Mrs. Jia asked, the three of them didn't know how far they had gone.
When Mrs. Jia heard that Jia Lian asked Jia Qiang to follow, she was not very satisfied, but Jia Lian explained: "My grandson thinks that the children have grown up so big, 'I have never eaten pork, and I have seen pigs run' I have to go out to see and see." Besides, this is a small matter, and there are many big things to follow. ”
Hearing Jia Lian say this, Mrs. Jia said with a satisfied look on her face: "In this way, I am idle to worry. Lian'er is doing very well, and she is better than you. ”
When Jia Lian heard Mrs. Jia say this, although she was secretly angry in her heart, she said deferentially on her face: "Lian'er doesn't dare to be praised by the old lady, in the end, it was all arranged by the old lady at this time, and Lian'er is just passing on a word." ”
The next morning, Jia Lian got up as usual and had breakfast with Jia Yu. Because Mrs. Xing, Wang Xifeng, Yingchun and the two little ones were not there, they were a little cold, and after only a little use, Jia Yu went out of the early court. After Jia Lian rested, he went to the Ning Mansion.
When Jia Lian arrived, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong were already waiting in the hall. The three of them got together, and together with the old steward, and several people from the world, they inspected the two places, painted the provincial palace, and inspected the people. Since then, craftsmen from all walks of life have gathered, and gold, silver, copper, tin, and civil engineering, bricks and tiles have been transported and moved continuously.
Jia Zheng was not in Beijing, and Jia Yu was busy with official business, so he had to occasionally survey one or two in his spare time. Now it can only be placed at the mercy of Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, Lai Da, Lai Sheng, Lin Zhixiao, Wu Xindeng, Zhan Guang, Cheng Rixing and several others. Fortunately, among these individuals, Lin Zhixiao, Wu Xindeng, and Cheng Rixing are all people who have long been subdued by Jia Lian.
Zhao Tianliang and Xing'er took Jia Qiang to Gusu, although Jia Zhen gave Jia Rong a single investigation to make gold and silver utensils. However, now everything is complicated, and Jia Lian has found an errand for Zhao Tiandong to buy Taihu Lake stone, so that he can take Zhao'er with him, so Jia Lian alone has occupied two pieces.
The east side of the courtyard followed by the garden, the sycamore house is in it, a large area of mountains and forests behind the garden, but it has not been built, and now it is also encircled, after the old Ming Gong from the Ministry of Industry personally surveyed, one by one to plan to build. The east courtyard where Jia Yu lived and the Wutong Residence where Jia Lian lived were all demarcated inside.
And Jia Yu's room built another garden in front of the garden, which was also the original Mrs. Jia, although Mrs. Wang felt that it was costly, but she thought that Wang Xifeng was her own niece and nephew, and Wang Ziteng's own girl, so she endured it.
Ningguo Mansion Huifang Garden and Jia Yu's east courtyard, the two are very close to each other, originally only separated by an alley, which is also a private land and not an official road. However, a few days later, the craftsmen demolished the wall of Ningfu Huifangyuan, leaving only the pavilion, which was directly incorporated into the courtyard on the east side of the General's Mansion, which is the courtyard where Jia Yu lives now.
All the houses of the lower people in the eastern area were also demolished, and a new east compound was built on top of it, so that Jia Yu and the people of the house would live in the future.
Huifang Garden originally attracted a stream of living water from under the north corner wall, but now there is no need to refer to other sources of water, only to dig a channel.
In this way, there is a lack of more rocks and trees, but what Jia Yu lives in is the old garden, in which bamboo trees, mountain stones and pavilion railings and other things are very exquisite, and they can be moved and still used. It is Jia Lian Wutong Residence, because it has not been built for a long time, there are also many that can be used. And now the two have become one. Not only is it convenient, but it also saves a lot of financial resources.
Even so, in the large garden behind, there are also a lot of things such as mountains, rocks, trees, etc. In this way, Jia Lian ordered people to purchase a large number of flowers, plants, bamboos and stones, and dug ponds in all mountains, erected pavilions, planted bamboo and flowers, and pointed out the scene.
Mrs. Wang felt that the silver was flowing out, but she was helpless. Not to mention that Jia Zheng is not in the capital now, even if he is in the capital, there will be no way to deal with Jia Zheng, who is not familiar with general affairs. And Baoyu ...... In the eyes of Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Jia, not only are they young, but they are also the life of the master of creation, how can they do the things that these subordinates do?
Jia Yu rarely returns to the mansion now, and mostly lives in inns. Jia Lian also often came over and had dinner with Jia Yu before going back.
On this day, as soon as Jia Yu returned to the inn, Xiao Er came and said, "Master, your Uncle Jialian is here, waiting for you in the box." When Jia Yu heard this, he was deeply surprised. At this hour, Jia Lian is either still in the mansion, or goes back to Zhuangzi outside the city, or goes to see Lin Yatou, or goes to see Feng Yatou and Brother Chun, how can he come to wait for him?
Jia Yu quickened his pace full of doubts, pushed open the door of the box, and sure enough, he saw Jia Lian already sitting at the table. Three meats, three vegetables and six cold dishes have been placed on the table of the Eight Immortals, and a pot of wine is still warm on the side.
Seeing Jia Yu come in, Jia Lian hurriedly got up and saluted, "Father is back." "That's called a spring breeze on his face, indescribable pride. Jia Yu couldn't help but nod curiously and asked, "Why did you come here at this hour?" ”
Jia Lian was not busy answering, and said to Xiao Er who followed behind Jia Yu: "Go, send all the dishes ordered by the master quickly!" After speaking, he invited Jia to take a seat.
After Jia Yu sat down, he looked at Jia Lian, and he became more and more puzzled, just looking at him like that, he knew that there must be something good, but he couldn't figure it out if he wanted to break his head, what good thing could make him so happy and proud?
After Xiao Er closed the door and withdrew, Jia Lian mysteriously took out a roll of silver tickets from his sleeve cage and put it on the table, and pushed it to Jia Yu. Jia Yu picked it up and opened it to see it, and he was frightened, and asked repeatedly, "Where did you come from?" ”
Jia Lian unhurriedly filled Jia Yu with a glass of wine, and then explained slowly: "Father also knows that although this garden is not very big, it is a big hidden treasure. After speaking, he also picked up the wine glass and pecked lightly, and ate two more dishes.
Jia Lian swallowed the food in his mouth, and then explained: "Now Lai Da, Lai Sheng, Lin Zhixiao, Wu Xindeng, Zhan Guang, Cheng Rixing, these individuals, aren't they fishing in their own pockets?" Fortunately, the purchase in Gusu was arranged by me with our own people, and those boys also followed me to stay in the south for many years, and there were also some heads. ”
When Jia Lian heard this, Jia Yu asked, "So it's the people from the south who have returned?" Jia Lian shook his head and said, "No, how can it be so fast?" It's going to take three or five months. Seeing Jia Yu's eyes full of doubts, Jia Lian smiled and said: "This is Lin Zhixiao, Wu Xindeng, and Cheng Rixing." ”
When Jia Yu heard this, his face was even more shocked! Where is this? The garden has been built for a month, and sixty or seventy thousand taels have been honored! Aren't they more of themselves? It's not more than here, and it's not too much, right?
Jia Lian naturally saw Jia Yu's shock and disbelief, and said with a smile: "Father, don't think like that, these people just have a handle in my hands, and it is estimated that even if he intercepts a few of them, it will only be a matter of ten thousand or two." ”
Even so, Jia Yu's face did not improve, he still looked at the silver in his hand in disbelief, and after thinking for a long time, he asked, "What are you going to do with this silver?" ”
Jia Lian had already thought about this, and now that Jia Yu asked, Jia Lian did not hide it, and said bluntly: "Father saved it first, these silver have no accounts, if the second room turns back from the public to pay back all the silver owed by our family, these silver can be regarded as the heritage left for our house, if it is not returned, my father will still pay it back." ”
After hearing this, Jia Yu nodded and said, "Lian'er is very thoughtful, so you can put away the silver." With that, Jia Yu pushed the silver ticket back to Jia Lian. Seeing that Jia Lian wanted to refuse, he took a glass of wine and drank a glass of himself before saying, "Just take it, let's divide these two together?" Only in the future, you remember to take care of your brother Cong Ge'er. ”
After Jia Yu finished speaking, he stopped talking, and it happened that Xiao Er knocked on the door to deliver food, and Jia Lian didn't want to say anything more, so he quickly put away the silver ticket.
