Chapter 179 Breaking Ground to Build Chongyu (2)
Jia Lian smiled indifferently: "Now father, what's not going to depend on Brother Chun?" As long as it's for Brother Chun'er, not to mention that the father doesn't allow it, even the mother is also strongly in favor. ”
Wang Xifeng thought about it, so he smiled: "After all, I informed earlier, so I should make arrangements as soon as possible, right?" Jia Lian didn't refute, only smiled: "It's the same when you talk about it at dinner at night." ”
Sure enough, when Jia Yu and Mrs. Xing heard this idea, they were overjoyed and hurriedly let people clean up. Especially Jia Yu, he really has a lot of treasures, many of which even Mrs. Xing and Jia Lian don't know. Wang Xifeng was even more stunned.
Jia Yu looked at the three big boxes in front of him and sneered, "What is this? Sir, I have a lot of good things! As he spoke, he patted the big box, looked at Brother Chun and said, "The master will keep these treasures for my eldest grandson, okay?" ”
Brother Chun, who has been playing with Yaya for nine consecutive rings on the side, seemed to know that there were benefits of his own, so he hurriedly raised his head and said in a milky voice: "Okay!" The best of the best! ”
When Jia Yu said this, Jia Yu was so happy that he couldn't see his eyebrows, and hurriedly went over and hugged Brother Chun and said, "It's still my eldest grandson who kisses me!" Haha, the master will leave all the treasures to you, and no one has to go! Brother Chun nodded thoughtfully.
Seeing that Jia Lian just wanted to hold his forehead, Wang Xifeng and Mrs. Xing were on the side, and they were trembling with laughter. At this time, Wang Xifeng's face was gone, and he didn't know that because of the construction of the provincial pro-garden, he was going to demolish the obscurity of the Wutong Residence.
When Jia Yu's various treasures were moved out, even Jia Lian was shocked, seven or eight large boxes, which contained a lot of antiques and treasures, and there were many calligraphy and paintings.
There are also three small boxes half a foot square, which are full of various colored gemstones, jadeite, agate and other things. The fineness is also the best of the best. Seeing that Mrs. Xing was straight-eyed, she couldn't stop looking at Jia Yu.
Jia Yu took a deep breath and said with a smile: "These are all my grandmothers, the dowry of the year, and many of them were honored by the old lady, and there are also ancestors who fought and snatched them back, and they were not put into the warehouse and given to the old lady." After the old lady went, she left it all to me. ”
Saying that, Jia Yu looked at Wang Xifeng and said, "I thought I would leave it to Brother Chun, but now that I have told you, I will take it all." only picked out a box, and when the time came, Lin Yatou said that she would marry or something, and send it to add makeup. The other two boxes, your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, one box per person. As he spoke, he asked Jia Lian to pick a box for Daiyu first.
Wang Xifeng looked at the things in the box and said: "Give those jade and jade to my sister, she loves those ones, and she doesn't like them much." Jia Lian nodded, and according to what Wang Xifeng said, he picked a box of jade for Daiyu, cui and the like.
Wang Xifeng didn't take the remaining two boxes of gemstone agate, but handed them over to Mrs. Xing with a smile and said: "These are all the best ones, or the mother keeps them, and when I turn around to welcome the girl to get married, it is better to have two heads, and besides, didn't the mother still say that she wanted to prepare a dowry for Sister Qiao'er?" That's not all! ”
Seeing Wang Xifeng like this, Mrs. Xing couldn't help but reddened her eyes and said: "I know that you don't lack these, but in the end, the master gave it to you, it is a thought, you take it." ”
Saying that, Mrs. Xing casually pushed a box to Wang Xifeng, afraid that Wang Xifeng would refuse again, so she said: "Could it be in your hands, can you still prepare it for Sister Qiao'er?" It's your sister, and you won't lose her if you think about it. ”
Seeing that Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were so harmonious, Jia Yu couldn't help but sigh to Jia Lian: "Your sister Lin said well, the family and everything is prosperous!" As long as our big house has been so united, the future will be better and better! ”
Hearing Jia Yu say this on the side, Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng couldn't help but blush, and they were really happy in their hearts, especially when they saw Jia Lian nodding their heads after listening to Jia Yu's words.
No one noticed when Brother Chun ran over, and repeated loudly: "Home and everything is prosperous, getting better and better!" Jia Yu and Jia Lian both laughed. Only the girl stood far away and didn't dare to approach, but she secretly thought in her heart: Home and everything is prosperous!
After returning from Mrs. Xing's courtyard, Wang Xifeng also began to pack up his things, although Ping'er and the others didn't understand how to go to Zhuangzi, but they also knew that if they came back, this courtyard would be gone, so they also packed all the belongings.
Jia Lian saw that Wang Xifeng's side was moving, so he arranged for someone to go to Zhuangzi to clean up. He also ordered the milk brother and Zhao'er to quietly go to their own private Zhuangzi.
Seeing that the people in the big house were packing boxes, Mrs. Wang was secretly happy in her heart, these eyesore people are gone, and this house will have its own world! Mrs. Jia didn't care much about it, and even called Wang Xifeng the next day, rewarded her with two pieces of clothing, and said that she had wronged her. Wang Xifeng would not refuse, and took it with a smile before saying that he was not wronged.
Seeing Wang Xifeng like this, Mrs. Jia said with satisfaction: "In the end, it comes from a big family, that is, it only knows how to advance and retreat." As he spoke, he glanced at Mrs. Xing coldly.
Although Mrs. Xing was unhappy in her heart, she didn't show anything on her face, she just sat with her head down, pretending not to know anything.
Mrs. Jia called Sanchun and Baoyu to explain one by one, and Mrs. Wang smiled when she saw this: "Since the three girls are going, Yun Yatou will also go back, let Baochai and Miss Xing also go, the provincial detention is cold in the house." There are more people, and it is lively. ”
Mrs. Jia thought about it, so she ordered someone to invite Xing Xiuyan and Xue Baochai over, saying that Sanchun and Baoyu would go to Zhuangzi to live together, and Mrs. Jia nodded with satisfaction.
He also instructed Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng to take care of her, and instructed Baoyu to go back to the house to visit often, and then called the maidens and mothers-in-law who were waiting around everyone to beat them one by one, and then ordered everyone to disperse.
However, on the second or third day, Wang Xifeng and others packed up everything, and Zhuangzi had already made arrangements, and after Daiyu and his party left the city, dozens of oxen and carriages also went out of the city gate. Compared with Daiyu and his party a few days ago, it is more spectacular, and many people in the capital have stopped to watch.
As soon as Wang Xifeng walked, Jiafu also began to break ground and built a provincial garden.
Several families in the capital are building provincial courtyards, provincial gardens, and provincial villages, and for a time all kinds of building materials and objects and craftsmen are in short supply, or even nowhere to find.
Just when the governments were anxious, a group of building materials merchants came out of nowhere, although the price is extremely high, but they have everything. Naturally, all the provinces are reluctant to spend more time looking for ****, so as not to be robbed of the opportunity.
Just when all the houses were rejoicing in the purchase of sufficient materials, in the imperial study, the emperor looked at the silver tickets that had just been sent in, but his face was uncertain and unpredictable.
The emperor looked at the thick stack of silver tickets in his hand again, and sneered at Huang Jiyun: "These individuals owe the treasury money and don't pay it back, and they cry poor with me all day long, but now they take out a lot of silver to build a garden Zhuangzi, it can be seen that they are really damned!" ”
Huang Jiyun sighed after hearing this, and said with a wry smile: "If it is really so easy to let these people take out the silver, why should the saint bother to make this one?" ”
The emperor was also a little lonely and shook the silver ticket and said: "This is thanks to the sea!" As he spoke, the emperor turned his head to look out the window, not knowing what to think. And Huang Jiyun heard the emperor mention Lin Ruhai, and his heart was also very sentimental.
Seeing that the emperor's mood was very low, and when Huang Jiyun didn't know what to say, the emperor suddenly smiled and said: "I remember that the salt primer auction was also made by Ruhai." Speaking of which, he doesn't look like a scholar, but more like a scholar of the household. After saying that, he laughed, only laughing and laughing, but his eyes were red again.
Huang Jiyun didn't know what to think, and the ghost envoy said: "Where can Brother Ruhai come up with it?" Huang Jiyun had already regretted it as soon as he finished speaking, but the emperor was aroused again, and hurriedly asked, "Why did Ji Yun say this?" Is there anything else I don't know? ”
Huang Jiyun remembered that Daiyu sent a letter to the emperor that day, and understood that this was not the time to hide it. Although Huang Jiyun was annoyed in his heart, he still said: "Brother Ruhai didn't put a lot of effort into collecting that idea of salt tax, not only did his hair turn a lot gray, but he was also in danger several times. ”
Speaking of this, Huang Jiyun took a deep look at the emperor, and saw that the emperor was also looking at him intently, so he quickly lowered his head and thought for a while: "Yu'er's girl looked at Xu is distress for her father, so she said to me and Brother Ruhai: 'Why bother chasing them to collect taxes and silver? We have what they want, so let them beg us with the tax money. ’”
When the emperor heard this, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "So you came up with such a method of auction?" ”
Huang Jiyun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The minister and Brother Ruhai didn't take it seriously at first, and still thought about the way to recover the tax and silver. ”
Speaking of this, Huang Jiyun looked at the emperor and said, "There is only a bowl of gruel." The emperor smiled puzzledly and asked, "Could it be that the girl forgot about your master and treated her father harshly?" I don't look like that girl, huh? Saying that, the emperor looked at Huang Jiyun with great interest.
Huang Jiyun shook his head and said: "At that time, the minister and Brother Ruhai were both puzzled, and they didn't wait for the minister to ask, but the girl said: 'There is only one bowl of porridge for lunch today, Yu'er thought that the master and father were hungry, so she sent it over, but I don't know who will eat it with my father and master?" Brother Ruhai was angry at that time and scolded Yu'er for messing around. ”
The emperor laughed and said, "What a fool's errand! Huang Jiyun also smiled: "At that time, the minister only thought that Yu'er was messing around, but he didn't want Yu'er to say with a serious face: 'Father and master both need to eat, but Yu'er only has a bowl of porridge, I don't know what benefits the master and father can give me?" In exchange for this porridge? ’”
When the emperor heard this, he was already shooting the case, and stared at Huang Jiyun for a long time before saying, "What a smart girl!" Huang Jiyun also nodded and said: "It is indeed smart, and the sentence 'the one with the highest price wins' breaks the maze between the minister and Brother Ruhai." ”
After Huang Jiyun finished speaking, the emperor shook his head and said, "It's a pity." After saying that, he sat back on the dragon chair. Huang Jiyun smiled bitterly and said, "Why does the saint use this to poke the minister's heart? When the emperor heard Huang Jiyun's words, he couldn't help but point at Huang Jiyun and laughed.
After a while, the emperor stopped laughing and asked solemnly: "Listening to Ji Yun say this, Ruhai is also the meaning of that girl?" (To be continued.) )
