Chapter 61 Jia Lian returns to Beijing and returns to Rongguo Mansion
When Jia Lian was in Yangzhou, he was frightened by what Lin Ruhai said, and he didn't dare to delay along the way, and returned to Beijing with everyone in Jiafu for half a month.
Since returning to Jiafu, Jia Lian has been busy with his feet not touching the ground, and first went to Shi Taijun to report to Yangzhou and his party, and will inquire about what he heard in Yangzhou, and tell the old lady 1510.
Then he took out the silver ticket presented by Lin Ruhai: "Uncle Lin said that the eight thousand taels are to thank the old lady for her kindness to Sister Lin, and said that when he entered Beijing, he would come to visit the old lady and thank him in person!" ”
Shi Taijun looked at the silver ticket, and a look of displeasure appeared on his face, not because he thought that Lin Ruhai gave too little silver, but because he was unhappy that Jia Lian could not take Daiyu back.
She felt that Lin Ruhai was a big man, how could he take care of Daiyu, Daiyu didn't know how much grievances she would receive: "When will your Uncle Lin enter Beijing?" ”
"This grandson doesn't know, it's only been a few months since I think about it, and it will be the end of the year at the latest!" Jia Lian replied.
"The deadline given by the emperor to Uncle Lin is to enter Beijing at the end of the year, and Uncle Lin has to come to the capital in advance no matter what he says."
"Your Uncle Lin's health is getting better?" Shi Taijun continued to ask.
"When my grandson left, Uncle Lin was already looking good, and I thought it would be okay!" Jia Lian estimated and said, whether Lin Ruhai is good or not, he is not sure.
"Didn't the Zhen family say that your Uncle Lin was no longer hit?" Shi Taijun asked in great surprise.
"This grandson doesn't know, I think he was cured by the imperial doctor sent by the emperor!" Jia Lian has never figured out this question, and can only give a guessed answer.
Then Shi Taijun asked a few more questions, and then asked Jia Lian to step back.
Through the Lin family's attitude towards Jia Lian, Shi Taijun judged that her son-in-law was estranged from the Jia family, and now that the Lin family is fine, Lin Ruhai is going to be promoted, and Shi Taijun has the idea of matching Daiyu and Baoyu again.
Jia Lian just came out of the old lady, and before he took a sip of tea, he was summoned by Mrs. Wang to ask about Yangzhou, Jia Lian had to say what the old lady said, roughly again, and when Mrs. Wang asked if she had brought back the silver from the Lin Mansion, Jia Lian only said that it was handed over to the old lady, and did not mention his two thousand taels at all.
While the two were talking, Jia Baoyu rushed over.
Jia Baoyu heard that Sister Lin did not come back with Second Brother Lian, so she was a little anxious, and when she heard that Jia Lian was at the second wife's place, she hurriedly came over and asked Jia Lian: "Second Brother Lian, when will Sister Lin go home?" ”
Jia Lian probably guessed what Baoyu meant, Baoyu's home should refer to the Jia family, because of what Lin Ruhai said, Jia Lian was a little estranged from Baoyu, not as close as she used to be, but replied: "Sister Lin has returned to the Lin family, and now she is with Aunt Lin, and it is estimated that by the end of the year, it will be visible when the Lin family enters Beijing, but Aunt Lin will stay by her side to take care of Sister Lin, and it is unlikely that she will come back." ”
"Isn't there no one in the Lin family, how can Sister Lin not come back!" Jia Baoyu said a little anxiously.
"Baoyu, don't talk nonsense, be careful that your old man beats your board!" Mrs. Wang saw that Baoyu only cared about Daiyu, and she was suddenly a little angry.
It was not easy for her to get rid of Lin Daiyu, how could she let Daiyu come back and bring Baoyu back. Then he ordered Caiyun and Caixia to take Baoyu out.
After Jia Lian came out of Mrs. Wang, he was called over by Jia Zheng and Jia Yu for questioning, and the questions asked were basically the same, and Jia Lian was already familiar with it after saying it several times.
After a few days of busy work, Jia Lian finally finished dealing with the official business in Rongguo's mansion, and began to investigate Wang Xifeng's release of Yinzi money.
Although Jia Lian is a gentleman, he has not reached the point of treating human life as a mustard, he directly found Wang Xifeng to question about it.
"Who am I putting the money for, not for your Jia family, you have no conscience!" Wang Xifeng was furious.
"I said that I was asked to be a housekeeper, but what is the situation in the house, the silver in the public has long been empty, I have been making up for the silver in the past few years, how much dowry I have taken out for the housekeeper, you have suffered a thousand knives, I don't know who I listened to, so I came to question me, what you have eaten and drunk in the past few years, not all from me!"
"Be quiet!" Jia Lian said angrily: "Do you want the people in the house to know that their second grandmother went out to put the money in Yinzi." ”
Wang Xifeng said unrelentingly: "I'm really not afraid of this, who dares to say more, see if I don't tear their mouths, I'm not the only one who does it, but the second wife has also been doing it!" ”
"What, the second wife is doing it too?" Jia Lian exclaimed.
"That's natural, it was originally the business of the second wife and Aunt Xue, but they just asked me to come forward!" Wang Xifeng said proudly.
Jia Lian saw that Wang Xifeng was still complacent, and said angrily: "You stupid woman, don't you know that you want to copy the family to change the family by putting the money in the seal?" ”
"If it's really a good thing, why doesn't the second wife do it herself, and pinch you to toss outside?"
Jia Lian didn't care so much about it, but since Lin Ruhai talked to him, he personally checked the laws of this dynasty, and asked a few friends, knowing that although many powerful people are doing it, no one dares to pursue it, but once it is investigated, it will be a big crime, and the most important thing is that he is afraid that after being found out, he will be deprived of his right to inherit the title.
"Raid the house, who dares to raid our house, look at your little boldness!" Wang Xifeng said disdainfully: "Is it Shuntianfu or Dali Temple?" ”
Now that Yuan Chun has just sealed the concubine, Jiafu is the time to gain power, who dares to touch Jiafu's brows at this time, so Wang Xifeng is fearless.
"You?" Jia Lian said angrily.
"What kind of family is our family, this government dares to copy the home of our country's mansion, and now that the eldest girl in our mansion has just been crowned a concubine, who in Beijing doesn't know, who dares to find our mansion at this time!" Wang Xifeng said with a smile.
Jia Lian thought about it, now that Concubine Yuan is a concubine, Jiafu's power has risen to a higher level, and there are many powerful people in Beijing who have money to put in Yinzi, so he no longer cares about this matter with Wang Xifeng.
just planned to deal with the fatal matter, and then warned Wang Xifeng and asked her to restrain a little, but Wang Xifeng still disdained it when she heard it, and laughed at Jia Lian.
Jia Lian was helpless, no longer arguing with Wang Xifeng about this topic, and then told Wang Xifeng about the title mentioned by Lin Ruhai.
Wang Xifeng felt that the things in the house were not simple, now that Yuanchun was the concubine, the second room of Jiafu was more powerful, and the big house now had to please the second room, and the couple were still living according to the second room, it was really hard to say who would be in this title in the future, and as soon as the husband and wife combined, they would ask Jia Yu to discuss the matter.
"I know about it!" Jia Yu put away the antique objects he was playing with, frowned and asked, "Now that the second room is in power, what are you going to do?" ”
"My son didn't know either, and he was flustered, so he discussed with the master!" Jia Lian said.
"Discuss with me, what can I do, the old lady is so partial, and now Yuan Chun in the second room has sealed the concubine again, what do you want me to do?" Jia Yu complained.
Because his father and the old lady were partial, they had to separate the title and the title, only let him attack the title, and let the second child attack the title.
For so many years, when he went out to socialize, he could feel ridiculed by others, so he had to stay in the mansion, pinning his affection on antiques and concubines to regain some self-esteem.
Jia Lian heard that even his Lao Tzu said this, his face was bitter, and he was even more worried about his attack on the lord.
"There is no urgency in this matter for the time being, Lao Tzu is still alive, and it is not so easy for the second room to attack the lord. When Aunt Lin enters Beijing, you go and ask him what he can do! ”
Jia Yu was also helpless, at this time, Yuan Chun had just been crowned a concubine, and he didn't dare to find a second room to make trouble.
Jia Lian was helpless, he had to solve the beginning and end of the Yinzi money first, and the matter of the title could only wait for Uncle Lin to enter Beijing, and then find Lin Ruhai to find a way.
