How long a family can last depends on how much responsibility each person in the family has for the family; For a family to continue for a long time, it not only requires the prosperity of the people in the family, but also has enough centripetal force. And this centripetal force, the most important expression, lies in the importance and piety of the ancestors of the sacrifice.

Sacrificing ancestors and preparing sacrifices is not just a form, but an important way to convey a certain idea from the inside out with the help of a certain ritual.

People who really value their family not only value the inheritance of their own family, but also maintain appropriate respect for the sacrifices of other people's families. is like Mrs. Wang, for the sake of selfish desires, she doesn't take Lin Daiyu's filial piety in her eyes at all, and touches the bottom line again and again, Xue Baochai already knows that such a Mrs. Wang, his future is doomed.

Xue Baochai has been coming to the Jia family for a few years, and Xue Baochai also knows something about Mrs. Wang's affairs, and the difference between the two branches of the Jia family, the Ningguo Mansion in the east and the Rongguo Marquis Mansion in the west, is in his eyes.

The Ningguo Mansion in the East Mansion, originally under the auspices of Jia Zhen, was greatly influenced by the Yuan Rongguo Mansion in the west. At that time, Rongguo Mansion was headed by Mrs. Wang, and in those more than ten years, the Jia family became more and more arrogant and extravagant in life, but they were extremely stingy in the purchase of sacrificial fields, clan property, ancestral industry, and ethnology, which was extremely important to the future of the clan. It can be seen that Jia Zhen and Mrs. Jia Zhengwang are so shallow.

In the past two years, Jia Jing has returned, Jia Yu has also gone out separately, and the two families have cut a lot of expenses, and Jia Yu has few constraints, so he travels lightly. directly counted more than half of the real estate in his hand as family property, and the remaining two-thirds as ancestral property, and the rest. is his personal property; And Jia Jing, because of the large number of clansmen, and the failure of his sons and grandsons, dragged on for several years, so he really began to deal with all kinds of affairs in the family.

No matter how these two behave in front of people, as the head of a big family, Jia Jing and Jia Yu are undoubtedly much more qualified than Jia Zhen and Jia Zheng.

That is, from these things. Xue Baochai saw that Mrs. Wang was an unsuccessful person. If you really let him stay in charge of the house, even if he becomes the wife of the patriarch of a big family. Even if there is a lot of money in the family, if he is a hostess who is greedy for money and selfish, but his means are not as good as others, and he is played around by those minions, he is afraid that the family that will rise and fall will be ruined.

Xue Baochai thinks that he is his own aunt. It is true that it is only suitable to marry the second son. Be the second daughter-in-law. At this point, his maternal grandfather and grandmother, that is, the old lady of the Wang family, who has passed away, did not do anything wrong. If you really want to marry such a daughter to someone else's family as the eldest son and daughter-in-law, it will become a feud.

Xue Baochai is also a person who has experienced the world, even if he is just a sixteen-year-old girl, he also knows that a daughter-in-law like Mrs. Wang is not dared to be taught by ordinary people. If it's someone else's. I am afraid that from the day I beat Mrs. Wang through the door, I will face severe discipline. And it will never be possible to touch the authority of stewardship.

It's a pity that the Jia family has a Jia mother who is eccentric and deviates from a certain realm.

Until now, even Xue Baochai can't say whether Jia's mother's partiality fulfilled Mrs. Wang's desires, or Jia's mother's partiality completely ruined Mrs. Wang. Xue Baochai didn't know how to extend his reputation for this aunt. The more I know Mrs. Wang, the more I have no way to say good things for him. Even Xue Baochai, a clever and flattering person, can't say too many advantages of Mrs. Wang, on the contrary, Mrs. Wang's shortcomings can be said a lot, and every shortcoming is extremely harmful to the continuation of the family.

Although Mrs. Wang is Xue Baochai's aunt, Xue Baochai does not look down on Mrs. Wang's words and deeds and morality. He doesn't speak ill of Mrs. Wang, just because Mrs. Wang is his own aunt, he maintains Mrs. Wang's dignity and cares about Mrs. Wang's feelings, and that is also because Mrs. Wang is Jia Yuanchun's mother, and Jia Yuanchun is the imperial concubine, who can help their Xue family on the imperial signboard.

It was also for the Xue family's imperial merchant signboard that Xue Baochai repeatedly tolerated Mrs. Wang.

It is precisely because he knows very well that Mrs. Wang may become his Xue Baochai's mother-in-law, that Xue Baochai will understand Mrs. Wang in many ways, and will analyze the pros and cons between himself and Jia Baoyu in many ways. 、

With a mother-in-law like Mrs. Wang and a husband like Jia Baoyu, it is actually a very boring thing. Jia Baoyu can't hold up, which means that once he marries Jia Baoyu, he not only has to take care of the affairs of the inner house, but also supports the affairs of the outside, and gets enough money for Jia Baoyu, so that he can continue to be his rich idler comfortably, and at the same time, he also has to face Mrs. Wang, the greedy mother-in-law, under the nose of this greedy aunt and mother-in-law, keep his property, or in other words, earn enough money to satisfy the two holes of his mother-in-law and husband at the same time.

With such a life, even Xue Baochai felt tired and panicked.

Xue Baochai also knew very well that with that piece of psychic jade, Jia Baoyu's life might really only be able to mix in the inner house. Now he relies on Jia's mother and Jia Yuanchun, and in the future, he will rely on his wife and nephew. Once he is motivated, it means the beginning of ruining miè, so Jia Baoyu is destined to not have much future, and it is impossible to help their Xue family anywhere, maybe their Xue family will keep taking out silver to spend on him.

With such a fiancé and such a marriage, Xue Baochai felt bored.

Seeing that her daughter was stunned, Aunt Xue thought that her daughter was frightened, and hurriedly pushed her daughter: "Bao girl, are you okay?" If you don't want to, then let's look for someone who treats you well and doesn't look down on our family. ”

Xue Baochai shook his head and said, "Mom, things in this world are unsatisfactory nine times out of ten. I'm old, and now I'm in a hurry to find relatives, I'm afraid that I won't be able to find a good one for a while. Besides, look at my brother, it's still like this, not to mention, I can't leave my family right now. ”

There are still some words that Xue Baochai couldn't say after all. Who are the people his brother has befriended, will he Xue Baochai not know? They are all people who are greedy for pleasure, don't know how to be motivated, and ask their Xue family for money with their faces, such people. How can I get married? But those who are real readers, capable readers, their elder brothers can't reach them, but they have access to them. I'm afraid that people will shake their heads when they see their brother.

And among the people that his brother can reach, Jia Baoyu is good. At least, Jia Baoyu's heart is quite simple, Jia Baoyu himself will not marry him for money, and he will not abandon him in the future because he has no money. After going through so many things, his Xue Baochai's heart has been as hard as iron, and Jia Baoyu is gentle enough. Able to tolerate him.

It's just that these advantages, under so many disadvantages, are not so eye-catching.

Xue Baochai thinks. This marriage is boring.

He is three years older than Jia Baoyu and was born in January. He has already experienced things, but Jia Baoyu is still an ignorant child, and in two years. I'm afraid that he is approaching the twentieth mark. But at that time, Jia Baoyu was afraid that he was still an ignorant child.

Regarding Jia Mu's desire to protect Jia Baoyu, Xue Baochai knows very well that this is a very possible thing.

Thinking of this, Xue Baochai became more and more excited.

But Xue Baochai himself also knows very well that if this time continues to drag on, he will get older day by day, and the room for choice will become smaller and smaller. In the end, Jia Baoyu will definitely become his only choice.

It's a step back now. Then marry a strange man who may abandon him after he is developed in the future, and choose Jia Baoyu, a giant baby who is destined to have no great future and can only rely on his wife?

For his future, Xue Baochai's heart is full of confusion, but intellectually and emotionally, he can't give up his family.

Yes, Xue Baochai's heart is very small, and the circle he regards as his own people is only his mother and his brother.

Xue Baochai will only be willing to delay his future for his mother and brother, and others have never been in Xue Baochai's heart.

Hearing her daughter say this, Aunt Xue had to sigh.

He has always known that his daughter has a heart, and once his daughter makes a decision, then it will be in vain for him to say anything.

Because the daughter will not change her mind lightly.

Aunt Xue said: "Good boy, I only have you and your brother in my life, the palms of my hands and the backs of my hands are full of meat, if you have something to do, what should I do?" I see that your aunt is like that, even the mother has become the imperial concubine, and the two of them have not been promoted, it can be seen that although the emperor spoils your big sister, he will only spoil your big sister, and for your aunt and aunt, that's it......"

Xue Baochai doesn't like to hear this, it's too unlucky.

He is willing to invest in Jia Yuanchun, that is because Jia Yuanchun can get the imperial merchant signboard for their Xue family, but if even Jia Zhengwang and his wife can't get grace, then what should their Xue family do? The previous investment is all in vain!

Xue Baochai hurriedly stopped: "Mom, my aunt and aunt are exceptions. Have you forgotten what happened at the beginning? If it weren't for the aunt who made too much trouble, was discovered by the other side, and killed her nephew and eldest sister-in-law, I am afraid that the court's will would have come down long ago. I haven't been, but it's just because I can't explain it to my courtiers. Aren't we very clear about this? Maybe Banzai also feels wronged by the big sister. At this time, as long as the eldest sister mentions it to Banzai, isn't our family's signboard just a matter of one sentence? ”

Aunt Xue, Xue Baochai and Xue Pan have repeatedly discussed these before, Mrs. Jia Zhengwang will not get grace and will not be able to get the grace of the royal concubines, these are all conclusions they have already reached. Therefore, Xue Baochai believes that everything is in their hands, and they only need to silently promote the process of things behind their backs, and they don't need to do much at all.

When Aunt Xue saw this, she had no choice but to say, "Bao girl, I just think that you are too wronged." That's it, you have an idea, so I won't say anything. If you have time, you should walk around more with that Jia Junjun. With many connections and multiple roads, I don't think he is a thing in the pool. ”

Xue Baochai also agrees with this.

Although Jia Yuanchun and Jia Jiu are cousins, according to convention, a family cannot produce two high-ranking concubines, but in Xue Baochai's opinion, Jia Jiu, who is backed by several forces such as Daomen, is really uncertain in the future, even the two of the Huansha Pavilion are also blessed, in the future, who said that they cannot be the princess, or the future queen princess?

Thinking like this, Xue Baochai immediately moved his mind.

Jia Jiu sent a holiday gift. He should also say yes. There is also Jia Baoyu's birthday gift, which must also be good-looking, and Jia Baoyu must not be unhappy. can't make Jia's mother unhappy, and must also satisfy his own aunt, Mrs. Wang.

It takes a lot of thought to do this.

Let's say that after beating those pots of begonias, Jia Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun became interested, and pulled Tanchun again, saying that they wanted to form a poetry club, and gave Jia Jiu, Jia Qian, and Jia Qing a post. Even Lin Daiyu's Xiangxue Villa received it.

They gave Lin Daiyu a post, although it was tempting, but they also knew it. It is impossible for Lin Daiyu to come, in fact, Lin Daiyu did reply with a flower note, politely rejecting the kindness of Jia Baoyu and others. As for Jia Jiu, Jia Qian, and Jia Qing. When I saw the post in my hand. They all laughed.

Jia Jiu asked the maid who delivered the letter to bring back a message, saying: "I didn't know poetry before, but now there are many things at home, and the matter of worshipping ancestors is not easy, and I have to enter the palace when I have leisure." Although I yearn for such an elegant thing, I am powerless after all. So he politely refused, and rewarded the girl who delivered the letter with a handful of newly made copper coins.

As for Jia Qian and Jia Qing's sisters. Jia Qian said something about the same, while Jia Qing said, "Oops." It's hard for me. I have seven tricks in poetry and six tricks, and even Master Yan scolded me for not being able to carve rotten wood. If it is about the meaning of the scriptures, I can still say a few words, but if I am asked to compose poetry, won't it make me ashamed? I also asked Uncle Bao and Aunt Yun to leave me some dignity. After all, he gave the girl who delivered the letter a reward and sent the girl back.

Jia Baoyu, who got the news, wilted at that time, and his stunned appearance immediately attracted Li Kun's attention.

Li Kun is also a caring person, he doesn't want to be tortured by Mrs. Wang, and he doesn't want to see his son delayed. Jia Baoyu has not gone to school so far, and is still mixed in the inner house, and in the long run, Jia Lan's study path will inevitably be delayed. For the sake of his son, Li Kun is unwilling, and he must stammer Mrs. Wang, and the best way to slap Mrs. Wang is to make Jia Baoyu happy.

Li Kun stepped forward, and after asking the reason, he immediately said: "You want to form a poetry club, why did you forget to come alone?" Miss Bao is very accomplished in this, but their family has a lot of things to do now, and he has to help his mother and brother, and he can't relax for a few days. Brother Bao, have you ever posted to Miss Bao? ”

Jia Baoyu jumped up at that time: "Damn, damn, I actually forgot Sister Bao." Saying that, he hurriedly asked the girl to prepare pen and ink, but after all, he still thought those girls were clumsy, jumped up, rushed back to his small study, and wrote a post to Xue Baochai.

Shi Xiangyun easily let Jia Baoyu ignore Xue Baochai, and at this time, Li Kun mentioned it, and said angrily, "Sister-in-law Zhu, I heard that their Xue family is busy repairing the provincial villa for the eldest sister, Sister Bao can't leave for a day, where is there so much time to play this with us?" ”

changed the original book, there is an extra Lin Daiyu in the middle, Lin Daiyu is extremely outstanding, even if he is constantly smeared by the Jia family and others, it is difficult to stop his brilliance, even Xue Baochai has to wear a heavy halo Under the support of Mrs. Wang, Li Kun and Tanchun, he can compete with Lin Daiyu.

When Lin Daiyu was there, Jia Baoyu's vision and attention must have been on him, and the poems and writings of Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun combined could not compare to his Lingxiu. In the original book, when he is there, Shi Xiangyun will definitely fight with him openly and secretly, and Li Kun, Xue Baochai and Tanchun will be in a group because of Mrs. Wang, whether true or false.

But now, Lin Daiyu is not here, and Jia Baoyu has not seen him, and he doesn't even know what he looks like, let alone fall in love at first sight and further contact.

Without Lin Daiyu, the contradiction between Shi Xiangyun and Xue Baochai could not be concealed. Shi Xiangyun likes Jia Baoyu, in his heart, this beloved brother is his most important friend, and it is also his first love that he has not come out of so far; And for Xue Baochai, he has invested so much money and so much effort in the provincial villa, although the Xue family has made money in the transaction of the provincial villa, but what the Xue family really wants, he has not gotten it, and Jia Baoyu is his most ideal husband candidate at the moment, where will Xue Baochai be willing to give it to Shi Xiangyun?

As for Tanchun, he is Jia's mother's own granddaughter, Shi Xiangyun is Jia's mother's maiden niece's granddaughter, and the two of them now live in Jia's mother's backyard, but Shi Xiangyun's house is more beautiful than Tanchun, and there are more girls than Tanchun, and Shi Xiangyun can still sit next to Jia's mother every day. What's more, it's clear that the two are the same age. But Shi Xiangyun is a serious princess, but he is a maidservant and a daughter, and he is destined to have no great future.

Because of this mentality. Because of her background, Mrs. Wang will never really accept him, and Tanchun can only find another way out, for example, to please her sister-in-law Li Kun or something.

Seeing Shi Xiangyun targeting Li Kun, Tanchun hurriedly came out to play a round: "Since this poetry club was proposed by us, this first time the host naturally wants us to do it." Just, how do we go about being the host? ”

That's to the point. Where does it cost nothing to treat?

As soon as Li Kun heard the treat. My heart jumped at once.

He was a widow and didn't have much money on hand, even though Jia's mother made up extra money every year. It's only one hundred and twenty taels of silver a year, and these are just monthly money, the real big head, and the annual example. It's a lot less. After Jia Yu went out. On the side of Ning Guofu, the public industry of the Jia family has shrunk greatly. Originally, when Jia Zhen was in charge, he didn't add much clan property and ancestral business, but later Jia Yu went out, and the money that Rongguo Mansion originally had to pay to Ning Guofu every year naturally didn't have to pay. Therefore, the year-end distribution on the side of Ning Guofu is even less. What's more, under the pretext of Mrs. Jia Zhengwang's affairs, someone named Jia Zhu for his lack of virtue when he was there, so that Jia Zhen reduced Li Kun's age. It's the same as the average clansman in the clan. This also makes Li Kun get the upper year in the original book because of Jia's mother and Jia Yuanchun's face. Now it's down to just a little bit. Wang Xifeng in the original book calculated for Li Kun, and Li Kun at that time also had an income of four or five hundred silver a year. This is not counting the income of Li Kun's own dowry private house. Judging from Wang Xifeng's tone in the original book, Wang Xifeng is very jealous of Li Kun's so much input.

But now, Li Kun only has more than 100 taels of silver every year, which is not as much as in the original book, and may not even have a quarter.

How can such a Li Kun not value the money in his hand?

He values silver money more than in the original book, and naturally he also cares about Tanchun's words.

What does this three girls say? Could it be that he is calculating my little bit of income?

It's no wonder that Li Kun has such a thought, now, what he can rely on is his son and the money in his hand.

Li Kun could see that in Mrs. Wang's heart, she was afraid that her son was nothing at all. Because Jia Zhu didn't get miserable, Mrs. Wang took all her anger on herself, and firmly believed that she was the culprit who killed Jia Zhu. Therefore, Mrs. Wang hates herself and hates Jia Lan, and in the future, if Jia Lan needs anything, Mrs. Wang will never nod.

Even in Li Kun's opinion, Mrs. Wang still wished that her mother and son would make way for Jia Baoyu.

Under such circumstances, Li Kun could only try his best to save some money in case of emergency.

As for the future, what will happen to Mrs. Wang and Jia Baoyu, Li Kun can't take care of it anymore, Li Kun has also become very sensitive to money, knowing that Tanchun doesn't mean this, Li Kun's heart still flashed with such thoughts.

Hearing Tanchun say this, Shi Xiangyun immediately said: "This is indeed a troublesome matter. We are not the second sister, the monthly fat and powder money are all on the top, and even the clothes and jewelry have additional shares. Qian'er and Qing'er are the same. If the three of them are here, they can just make it together. But my third sister and I won't do it, the monthly money is already small, and there are still points up and down. The third sister spent several months in order to save a few dollars, and they gave it to Baoyu. As for me, our Shi family's monthly money was originally small, and when I came here, I got the same as the third sister. But I also have to take care of those sisters and mothers, and I haven't saved much money. ”

As he spoke, Shi Xiangyun looked at Li Kun. He remembered that Li Kun's monthly income was very high.

When Li Kun heard Shi Xiangyun say this, he knew that it was not good, and when he saw Shi Xiangyun's eyes again, his heart jumped even more.

Of course, Li Kun will not directly say that he has no money.

He said: "Since this matter was mentioned by Baoyu, didn't Baoyu tell you about it?" I remember the old rule at home, a young master like Baoyu, even if he is not yet an adult, has a monthly salary of ten taels of silver every month. He rarely goes out, and even when he does, the old lady has another subsidy. He shouldn't have a lot of money in the house. It's better to ask Baoyu, maybe you don't have to bother. ”

When Shi Xiangyun heard this, he immediately went to Jia Baoyu's small study.

Tanchun looked at the sister-in-law and saw that Li Kun was a little embarrassed. I had to mention yì and go over to have a look.

The two sisters-in-law had their own concerns, and when they came to the outside of Jia Baoyu's small study, they saw Shi Xiangyun and Jia Baoyu coming out side by side.

As soon as Jia Baoyu saw Li Kun, he said, "Sister-in-law." Thanks to your reminder today, otherwise, I would have forgotten about this matter. As he spoke, he gave Li Kun a look, and Li Kun hurriedly said Wanfu in return.

Shi Xiangyun didn't care much, so he pulled Jia Baoyu and left. Coincidentally, the attacker was not in the room. Only a few girls from Musk Yue were there, and when they saw Jia Baoyu coming in in a hurry, they thought something was wrong. Frightened, he hurriedly got up and said, "Second Master Bao......"

Jia Baoyu didn't wait for them to finish speaking, and immediately said, "Where is my monthly money?" Bring them all, I'll be useful. ”

Musk Moon is a few inexplicable. Said: "Second Master Bao." Your monthly money is collected by your sister. I think it's in a cupboard. ”

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he immediately called to open the cabinet.

It is true that the cabinet in Jia Baoyu's house is not locked, but his girls also know that Jia Baoyu's monthly money is controlled by the attacker, and the attacker has the means, so he will not challenge the authority of the attacker.

Soon someone took out the money box in the cabinet, and Jia Baoyu opened it to take a look. Just a complete ingot of official silver, plus a few gold and silver screws. and some scattered copper coins.

Jia Baoyu picked up the ingot of official silver and said, "How much silver is this?" ”

Those girls looked at each other, and they didn't know how to answer, but Li Kun recognized that this was a piece of silver with twenty taels.

Li Kun knew very well that when Jia Yuanchun was in charge of affairs, he had reduced Tanchun's fat powder money, but Jia Baoyu's dim sum money did not decrease, that is to say, in addition to Jia Baoyu's monthly money of ten taels of silver, he also had eight taels of silver for dim sum money. Every time Jia Baoyu goes out, Jia's mother will instruct the people below to take good care of Jia Baoyu, and will also ask the mandarin duck to prepare silver money for Jia Baoyu, plus Jia Baoyu is favored, he wants something to eat here from Jia's mother, and the people in the kitchen don't dare to ask for the copper plate that Jia Baoyu rewards.

In other words, Jia Baoyu's monthly money plus dim sum money every month can't be used at all.

According to the rules of the Jia family, during the New Year's holidays, the family will definitely cast some small gold and silver silver swords with auspicious words on them, like what kind of champion and the first category, in order to pray for blessings. This habit has been around for a long time. Later, after Jia Yu split up and went out, he still didn't change, but he didn't prepare Jia Zheng's side, but directly handed over a large bag of gold and silver to Jia's mother. Like Jia Lan and Jia Huan, because they were not in front of Jia's mother, they only came to kowtow to Jia's mother in the few days of the New Year, and in addition to receiving the New Year's money, they got a purse of gold and silver, and the rest, except for Jia's mother, who used to reward those girls, the rest were taken by Jia Baoyu.

In other words, Jia Baoyu's private house will definitely not be left with such a point. Here, if it is said that the monthly money that has just been received this month, then there are still people who believe it.

Just when Li Kun's thoughts were spinning, he saw the attacker come in from outside. The attacker was taken aback by the number of people in the house. He has always been a calculating, and he also noticed the money box in front of Jia Baoyu. His heart moved, but his face remained silent.

"Second Master Bao, what are you doing here? But what about silver? How much do you need? ”

Jia Baoyu held up the tattooed silver in his hand and said, "Attack, is that all my monthly money is?" ”

The attacker knows that Li Kun is here, and it is not easy to hide from the world. The only thing he can use is Jia Baoyu's trust in him.

The attacker hurriedly said: "Second Master Bao, what you have in your hand is twenty taels of official silver." This is the monthly money that I just received. Second Master Bao, you have ten taels of silver per month, and eight taels of silver for snacks. You don't have much to spend, so you come and go, and naturally you save a lot. It's just that there are people coming and going in this room, and the cabinets are not locked, so it is inconvenient, so I put a large amount of silver under the bed. Inside this ark is for your calling this month. Do you want silver? I'll take as much as you need. ”

Jia Baoyu raised his head and said, "Sister-in-law, how much money do we need to form a poetry club?" ”

Li Kun thought for a while and said, "Almost fifty taels is enough." ”

When the attacker heard about it, he was not ambiguous, and immediately climbed under the bed. When he came out, the handkerchief in his hand was indeed wrapped in three ingots of silver, each of which was twenty taels of silver.

Jia Baoyu said: "Attack, is my silver money so small?" ”

The attacker smiled and said: "My second master, your Guangyue money and dim sum money are more than two hundred taels of silver in a year." Coupled with the gold and silver skulls given by the old lady on a quarterly basis, as well as bits and pieces, where will your private room be missing? Two hundred taels is ten catties. That's not a small amount. It's going to take a lot of work to get it out. ”

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he was silent.

Shi Xiangyun is a big grin, although because of his experience, he also cares more about money, but he has always trusted the attacker, but he has never thought that there will be anything wrong with the attacker.

Only Li Kun and Tanchun. The two men glanced at each other, saw the meaning in each other's eyes, and turned their heads away.

This attack. Sure enough, it's a good means!

What Tanchun thought about was that he was a maidservant girl, and his daughter was originally lowly, and he was raised by a girl. It's okay if you can't compare to others. But his own brother Jia Huan. is obviously also the grandson of Jia's mother, but because of his concubine, the monthly money is much lower than Jia Baoyu's, and he doesn't have this snack silver. Aunt Zhao is stupid again, trying her best to make up for her mother's family, but she doesn't care about Jia Huan, the two mothers and sons, and the total amount of money is only four taels of silver and a penny every month. He even took out half of it to make up for his mother's house.

Every time she wants to talk to Mrs. Wang, and every time she saves money and wants Jia Baoyu to bring something for herself, this Aunt Zhao will have trouble. As if he didn't do it, he wouldn't feel comfortable.

It's the same with Li Kun.

Li Kun also has a son, Jia Lan, who is also a serious young master of the Jia family, like Jia Baoyu, they are all descendants, and Jia Lan is also Jia Zheng's eldest son and grandson. In Li Kun's opinion, according to the rules, Jia Lan, who is the eldest son and grandson of the eldest son, should be more expensive than Jia Baoyu, but there is Jia Baoyu in front of her who looks at Jia Baoyu as an eyeball, and there is Mrs. Wang who doesn't look down on her mother and son at all.

Just like this monthly money, Jia Baoyu's monthly money was received from Jia's mother, so his monthly money has always been ten taels of silver plus eight taels of silver for dim sum money. But what about Jalan? He was not loved by Mrs. Wang before he was born, and his aunt Jia Yuanchun didn't even want to see this nephew born, that is, the treatment, Jia Lan, the eldest son and eldest grandson, was not as good as Jia Baoyu, the second son, but it was the same as Jia Huan's concubine. In other words, Jia Lan, like Jia Huan, is a monthly payment of two taels of silver a month, and there is no dim sum money.

Although Li Kun will not fall into the eyes of money, he will cry out if people are not fair. Just like this month's money, Jia Baoyu accumulates more than two hundred taels of silver every year, and there are other people who send him money to spend, but what about their mother and son? The mother and son are ignored. But seeing that this Jia Lan is already seven years old, he should go to school if he changes to someone else's family. But the Jia family didn't mention Mr. at all, and the reason was just because Jia Baoyu didn't like to study.

Thinking that his son's future might be delayed because of Jia Baoyu, Li Kun's mood was certainly not good.

At this time, someone from outside reported that Qingwen was coming, and Jia Baoyu called for help.

Jia Baoyu is a face control, what he likes is beauty, and Qingwen's face is the most beautiful of all the girls in the Jia family. Jia Baoyu always knew about Qingwen, and he also thought that Qingwen was originally prepared for him by Jia's mother, but he didn't expect that Jia's mother would give Qingwen to Jia Jiu.

This is the regret in Jia Baoyu's heart.

What made Jia Baoyu even more uncomfortable was that Qingwen called Jia Jiu's house and became estranged from him, even when she saw him in front of Jia's mother, Qingwen didn't pay much attention to him, which made Jia Baoyu very sad. Qingwen is here today, no matter what the reason, this is also the first time in so many years that Qingwen has stepped into his house and his residence, of course Jia Baoyu is happy.

Jia Baoyu hurriedly called for invitation. If it weren't for the fact that there were Li Kun, Shi Xiangyun, Tanchun and others in the house, I was afraid that Jia Baoyu would have jumped up and personally thrown out to greet him.

I saw that after Qingwen came in, she first saw Jia Baoyu, and then saw Li Kun, Shi Xiangyun and Jia Tanchun according to Li, so she stood up straight and said, "Second Master Bao, our girl said that since the second master wants to open a poetry club, he can't get a lot of things." Our girl couldn't help anything else, so she asked the maid to bring two jars of crab sauce and two bottles of wine. ”
