It is said that Rongguo Mansion finally returned the 800,000 taels of silver owed to the treasury, and after Jia Yu returned to the house, he learned that Jia Zheng did it behind his back, and he made trouble with his neck for a long time. Jia Zheng knew that it was inappropriate in the first place, and he never took advantage of it seriously, so he was a little ridiculous. Jia's mother had to come out to appease her, said a lot of good things, and asked Jia Zheng to compensate for it. Jia Zheng thought about it, just endure it for a while, and when his daughter is crowned a concubine, this mansion will not rely on her? So I really made a deal with him. Jia Yu sneered twice: "The second child is really a scholar. And he walked away.

When I returned to the house, I saw that my two sons were waiting with blank eyes, and hummed, "What are you waiting for? ”

Jia Cong's mouth was fast, and he said: "Wait to hear that the master can learn from the second uncle to sell cheaply." ”

Jia Yu couldn't help laughing, because he asked Jia Lian what happened today. Jia Lian was proud, starting with Lao Fuhe and making a gesture to him, and when he said "slipped out of the south corner gate", the grandfather laughed in unison.

Jia Yuyin said: "Now that the New Year is approaching, I will release or sell the minions who are the most greedy for ink under this name, so as not to waste money." ”

Jia Lian hesitated: "There are all people in our family with heads and faces, and there are a lot of old ladies. ”

Jia Yu's face turned pale, and he said: "Deal with the second wife's people first, and the old lady's people will be allowed later, I have my own plans." ”

Jia Lian said: "The second wife's people are afraid that they will have to testify for the second wife in a few days." ”

Jia Yu frowned and said, "What kind of certificate, isn't the account book just a certificate?" Now that she thinks that her daughter wants to be a mother, does she dare to tear it apart and ruin her reputation? ”

Jia Lian said: "It's just to be cautious just in case." It's okay for him to be late for a month, and besides, the people are now going to the New Year. ”

Jia Yu gave up at this time, and only told not to forget.

Jia Lian smiled and said: "If you forget to pay it back, who wants to forget this?" ”

Jia Cong hurriedly asked, "Do all those ink-greedy minions have to be sent out?" I heard Mr. Gong say that only 23 out of 10 are clean, so shouldn't there be many fewer people in our house? The old lady loves to put on a show. ”

Jia Yu sneered: "How many masters are there in our family? What do you want to do with those waiters? I don't have anyone to serve me at the house in the south of the city. In addition, there are many people in the Zhuangzi, and if they are not enough, they will buy another one. ”

Jia Cong was waiting for this, and said: "Then do you want to choose it first or buy it, and leave it at the end of the mansion in the south of the city to learn the rules first?" He squeezed his eyes, "Since the master bought it, the rules are naturally set by the master." ”

Jia Yu was stunned.

Jia Cong continued: "The remaining two or three out of ten may not want to be greedy for ink and steal, I'm afraid they can't." ”

Jia Yu couldn't help but high-five. Yes, there are not many people in this house who can be trusted, and now those who are flattering and laughing just look at his power for a while. If there is a storm one day, you can immediately turn against it. Yin Lian nodded again and again: "What you said is very true, all the people in this mansion should be replaced." ”

This matter was decided, and the next day Jia Yu went to the dart bureau to find Gong Sanyi to discuss, and Gong San also praised "Yes".

Jia Yu said worriedly: "It's just that no one is talking about it." ”

Gong Sanyi thought for a while, and said: "Don't worry, there is a very suitable candidate, but it is inconvenient to say this time, and we will talk about it after the New Year." ”

Jia Yuqi was surprised: "We have all the people who rob the bodyguards and occupy the mountains as kings, where can we pick and teach the people of big families to come out?" ”

Gong San also smiled: "Don't worry, you will naturally know when the time comes." ”

Jia Yu asked for a long time, he just sold the guanzi, and then he stopped.

In the blink of an eye, the Chinese New Year, although Rongguo Mansion was not as lively as before, he also invited some drama and wine for a few days, and put on a pomp and circumstance with Jia's mother. Because Jia Lian went around preaching that it was Jia Zheng's intention to return the treasury silver, and the excerpt was actually his own, and even the delivery of the silver on the same day was his own initiative while Jia Yu was not going out, the four kings and eight dukes and other old relatives who were also big debtors of the treasury all saw it. or sneering, or repulsive, Jia Zheng was extremely depressed for a while, looking forward to his daughter becoming a noble person day and night.

The auspicious three treasures went to Lin Hai to pay New Year's greetings again and got three big red envelopes. Jia Cong thought about the original book, at this time, Lin Haidu was about to donate Yangzhou City, but now he was in good spirits day by day, secretly proud.

When Daiyu came to Jiafu with her father to pay New Year's greetings, because of Jia Cong's entrustment, Xichun grabbed Daiyu before Baoyu and sat between herself and Yingchun. Baoyu was helpless, so she had to look at it. Daiyu and her sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, and they have a lot to say, because they can't take care of him anymore. After a while, Jia Zheng asked someone to call him out, but Baoyu never approached Daiyu's side for a day, and he stomped his feet with hatred.

After the Lantern Festival, Gong San also told Jia Yu that the one who taught the people in their house would come tomorrow, but would you like to see him? How can Jia Yu not see it? The next day, he went to the mansion in the south of the city early and waited, and Jia Conglai came alive.

After sitting for a while, a child ran in and shouted, "A fairy-like sister has come down from the carriage!" The two of them became more and more curious, Jia Yu had to endure it, Jia Cong couldn't sit still and ran out.

When he arrived at the door, he saw a woman wearing a cyan cloak and a headscarf wrapped around her head coming over, and her face was Qin Keqing! couldn't help blurting out: "Brother Rong's daughter-in-law! ”

Jia Yu was also startled when he heard it, and hurriedly asked Gong San what was going on.

Gong San also said with a smile: "I heard that she was in charge of the top and bottom of your Dongfu that day, and I think I can do it." ”

Jia Yu asked, "Isn't she a monk?" ”

"Can't you be vulgar?"

It turned out that Gong San also thought about it for a long time, and only Qin Keqing did this matter, so he asked someone to go to the nunnery where she lost her hair to investigate. learned that in addition to Qin Zhong's frequent visits, Jia Rong also occasionally disturbed her; From Qin Keqing, who always sees Qin Zhong but never sees Jia Rong, it can be seen that this woman has no Buddha heart at all. Then he turned into the nunnery, and found her in the courtyard after Qin Keqing cleared the snow every day, and said bluntly, "That day, I pretended to be a Taoist priest to coax Uncle Zhen of Ning Guofu." ”

After Qin Keqing was a little startled, he actually clapped his hands and thanked him.

Gong San also nodded, and then recounted what Jia Cong had entrusted that day, because he said: "If you don't leave that door, you won't be able to escape from his palm." You can't hide secrets in that house, and even if you want to endure and live, your mother-in-law may not be willing to agree. ”

Qin Keqing sighed: "It was the kid who came to the rescue." Because he said, "My mother-in-law has a lot of gloom in her belly because I am so popular." ”

Gong San also asked her if she could teach some subordinates for Rongguo Mansion, and Qin Keqing laughed miserably: "How can poor nuns enter the world? ”

Gong Sanyi smiled slightly: "This is easy to do." Tomorrow, you will only tell the owner of your nunnery that Jia Rong often disturbs your cultivation and makes your heart unbreakable, so it is better to go to another place to practice. ”

Qin Keqing hesitated for a while: "Master treats poor nuns quite well, and I can't bear to bully her." ”

Gong San also asked rhetorically: "Why did you deceive her?" It is true that Jia Rong disturbs your cultivation, and it is also true that your dust heart is difficult to decide. I think you really don't have a Buddha fate, why do you want to live here? In the case of cultivating Buddhism, chanting sutras and eating vegetarian foods are all for their skin, and doing good deeds and accumulating virtue is the muscles and bones. If you have a lot of cultivation in the coming day, wouldn't it be better to help the needy than to hide in this nunnery and recite the scriptures without intention? ”

Qin Keqing was originally a young woman, and she has enjoyed the dignity of Ningguo Mansion for several years, and she was forced to become a monk, where is she really willing? Hearing this, I couldn't help but shake my heart and asked, "What about the nunnery on the side?" ”

Gong San also smiled: "I will naturally know tomorrow." "Gone by sweeping the wall.

The next day, Qin Keqing really proposed to the owner of the nunnery to go elsewhere to practice to avoid Jia Rong, and the owner of the nunnery pondered: "I see that you haven't been quiet for a day these days, if it weren't for Ning Guofu, you would have been returned to the vulgar." That's a good idea. "I couldn't think of where to send her for a while.

At this time, a sister-in-law came to report: "The pure yuan master of Zhenwuan is here." I couldn't help but rejoice, "There is a place to go." Because he said to Qin Keqing, "Zhenwu Nunnery is in a secluded place in the south of the city, there are few carriages and horses, although it is a little harder, they have their own industry in the nunnery, but they are quite able to survive." ”

Qin Keqing hurriedly thanked him.

When the Jingyuan master came, the three of them decided to do so, and the next day, Qin Keqing took advantage of the heavy snow, and the bamboo hat left the nunnery with falling hair and arrived at the Zhenwu Nunnery. Master Jingyuan returned home for her on the twenty-ninth year, and the Qin family had a reunion year.

Jia Yu and the two were dumbfounded when they heard this, and Jia Cong muttered: "Yes, it's okay to ...... like this" Haven't Li Zhi and Li Longji used it?

Gong San also glanced at him with a smile, and said to Jia Yu: "Why don't you temporarily hire the Qin family as a teacher and teach people in your house, what do you think?" ”

Jia Yu nodded again and again: "Excellent, extremely proper." It's just that Brother Zhen will look for her? ”

Gong San also waved his hand and said, "He thought that Qin Niangzi was his white tiger, and he couldn't hide it." As for Jia Rong, Zuo only found the real Wuan, and only said that he didn't see the guests. At this time, Jia Yu and Jia Cong guessed that Zhen Wu'an was the territory of Prince Xianyizhong, so they were buried in their stomachs and did not say a word.

Qin Keqing thanked Jia Cong for saving him, and Jia Cong hurriedly said: "What has nothing to do with me was done by Mr. Gong, I only moved my mouth." ”

Qin Keqing sighed: "How rare it is that you have the heart to help the world at such a young age. ”

Jia Cong had to bow his head and pout—he really just said it casually.

With Qin Keqing, everything is easy to do, Jia Yu urged the account room to check the accounts carefully, and the other wall made people who found use from the Zhuangzi in the lower head send them to the mansion in the south of the city to choose, and sometimes they also went to the market to pick some good ones. Everyone called the Qin family "Qin Niangzi", and they only said that they were hired to teach and learn. To avoid gossip, she wore a wig for the time being.

After a few days, the accounts were cleared, and Mrs. Wang's public account was 1,23,833 taels.

Jia Yu made people go to Jia Zheng's study to ask for accounts with the account books in their hands. Jia Zheng and the Qing guests were chatting, and they were embarrassed. Seeing that the situation was not good, the clearers hurriedly slipped out. Ja Yu sat down in his chair and spread the account book on his table: "Pay back." ”

Jia Zheng said angrily: "Don't bully people too much! The money in the treasury years ago was all repaid by us. ”

Jia Yu nodded: "Remove 800,000 taels, and there are 403,830 taels." ”

Jia Zhengdao: "There are not so many! ”

Jia Yu said: "The account books are here, read them yourself." ”

Where can Jia Zheng read the account book? I had to send it inside to show Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang didn't agree when she saw it. It turned out that they valued all the items that Mrs. Wang was greedy for ink according to the most expensive ones on the market, and many of these were given to her as gifts, and they were not converted into silver money. She secretly sold the public property to her own name, and calculated the highest estimate, and also counted the output that she should have received each year according to the maximum estimate. Li Fanlian originally wanted to calculate the interest over the years, but Jia Lian said, "Forget it, we still seem stingy if we don't have a lot of money", so he just left.

Mrs. Wang sent people out to comment on Jia Yu. Jia Yuqi said: "Lian'er deliberately waived your interest, but you are still dissatisfied?" Did you know that you can't fold those things for money? Since you don't want to give money, it's better to restore the things back. ”

At this time, Jia's mother had already arrived, and she was persuading Jia Yu to see that for the sake of the family, the second room had the 800,000 taels again, so she would stop. Jia Yu is not short of these 400,000 taels of silver now. It's just that the more Jia Mu leans in the second room, the more unwilling he becomes, because he sneered: "Since the second wife thinks that our valuation is not appropriate, she will either restore the object and come back, or go to court." ”

Jia Mu was furious: "You dare! ”

Jia Yuqi said: "People stole my things, and now the thief has caught the evidence and found out, why don't I dare to sue?" ”

Jia Mu picked up a cane and hit her head.

Jia Yu has not been the beginning in the past few years, his body has also been recuperated, and he often practices his fists and feet with Jia Siwu Leopard, where can he fight? Dodge and jump away. The crutch slammed into the chair with a loud sound. Jia Yu couldn't help but feel cold, gritted his teeth and said, "The old lady is preparing to kill me?" ”

Jia Mu pointed at him and said, "You disobedient beast! How did I give birth to you! You ignore the thieves at home, and only deal with your own brother! ”

Jia Yu didn't refute, and stood there looking at her coldly, without saying a word. After a long time, Mother Jia couldn't help but feel a little cowardly, and forced her crutches to the ground: "You still want to kill your own mother!?" ”

Jia Yu sneered: "No need. Because he turned his head and ordered, "Let the account room recalculate the accounts, and calculate them according to the profits of the Sitong Bank." He looked at Jia Zhengdao again, "Now that we don't have a bargain, this lawsuit will be fought on the Jinluan Palace, and there will be no less than a cent of silver." "Shake your sleeves and leave.

Mother Jia was anxious: "You can't force my wife to death!" ”

Jia Yu was stunned, and said: "Whether the old lady wants to cry, make trouble, hang herself, or sue me for disobedience, this greedy lawsuit must be fought." See you in court. He never looked back, but left immediately.

As soon as he left, Jia Mu understood that he was inappropriate, and forced him to be anxious, and sighed again and again. Jia Zheng hurriedly asked her what to do, and Jia Mu thought for a while: "You couldn't take out the silver, can he still drive you out of the house?" ”

Jia Zheng understood that this was going to be delayed, and nodded again and again.

On the other hand, Jia Yu rushed back to the house angrily and scolded loudly: "As expected, the old goddess really wanted me to endure it." ”

Jia Lian Jia Cong hurriedly came up to coax him, beating his shoulders and hugging his arms, and said, "Don't you be angry, didn't you guess it a long time ago?" ”

Jia Yu gritted his teeth: "How clean it was for her to give birth to me that day!" ”

Jia Cong hurriedly said: "I can't help it! Then my brother and sister and I are gone? There are more than three good people in the world, and heaven cannot promise it. ”

Jia Yu couldn't help but want to laugh, and pretended to sigh: "That's it, for the sake of a few of you, I'm still alive." ”

Jia Lian hurriedly asked, "What happened in the end?" ”

Jia Yu snorted: "I let the account recalculate the interest in." ”

Jia Lian said: "I'm afraid they will die and not pay it back." ”

Jia Cong smiled: "This is easy to do, the second uncle is the most face-saving, face is more important than money, and it is extremely easy to deal with people who want face." Because of the muttering in a low voice, Jia Lian laughed in unison, and Jia Lian pointed at him and couldn't speak for a long time.

After a while, Jia Lian said again: "It's just like this, but it will force the old lady to be anxious, and really go to sue the old man for disobedience?" ”

Jia Cong smiled: "Second brother is too worried. Now that the evidence in the master's hand is complete, she only dares to threaten the master, and does not dare to force each other seriously, otherwise she may be tired of the big sister in the palace. They also stretched their necks and waited for the big sister to be the mother! The gentleman laughed again.

The next day, a large piece of paper was pasted at the door of the tent room, and at the top were three lines of large characters:

The second room is in arrears with public accounts

Forty-three thousand eight hundred thirty taels

Interest is pending

Every time a person from the second room came to receive the silver, he did not give it at all, and the corresponding number was deducted on the spot. Whether it is Jia Zhengwang's wife Jia Baoyu's monthly money or the monthly money of the people in their house, whether it is Jia Zhengqing's flattering silver or Baoyu's tea and snacks to go to the clan to learn.
