Chapter 347: Wood and Stone
When Jia Ke heard Jia Zheng's promise, a trace of joy filled her heart, hoping to help Lin Daiyu this time, otherwise how would this lonely little girl live in this world in the future? Although Jia Baoyu wasted some firewood and spent some money, he was still very good to Lin Daiyu.
And Lin Daiyu's temper is not something that ordinary people can bear, that is, Jia Baoyu can get along with her without incident
I just don't know what Mrs. Wang's attitude is about this matter, and the daughter-in-law in Mrs. Wang's mind now should be that Xue Baochai. But if Jia Zheng agrees with Lin Daiyu, Mrs. Wang is unwilling, and there is no way.
If it is in the real Dream of Red Mansions, there is nothing for Rongguo Mansion and the Xue family to marry, and Jiafu's identity is different from the past, and it is also considered a top powerful family in the capital, Xue Baochai's current status is a little low, and I am afraid that Jia Baoyu's identity is not suitable. After all, the current Rongguo Mansion is not as dilapidated as in the Dream of Red Mansions.
Although Lin Daiyu died of her father, she was the daughter of Lin Ruhai, the doctor of the Salt Imperial Shilantai Temple, and her identity was much more valuable than Xue Baochai. It is barely suitable for Jia Baoyu.
The most important thing is that now Lin Daiyu can send millions of furniture to Jiafu to Brother Lai Provincial Hospital, and Xue Baochai can't do this. The Xue family is crazy, and it is impossible to give all their furniture to Jiafu for Xue Baochai's daughter, after all, the Xue family also has a son, Xue Pan.
Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu have no utilitarian hearts, and they will write poems together in the future, thinking that they will be able to spend this life relatively happily.
Early the next morning, Jia Zheng came to Jia's mother's courtyard, when Jia's mother had just finished breakfast and was sitting on the kang by the window drinking tea.
Jia Zheng entered Jia's mother's room and kowtowed to Jia's mother first. After that, he stood up and replied to Jia's mother, "My son has something to say back to his mother and ask for his mother's idea." ”
"You can decide what to do, ask me what this wife is doing." Jia Mu didn't care.
Jia Zheng hurriedly bowed down and said, "Don't dare, don't dare, my mother is the Dinghai Divine Needle of our Rongguo Mansion, and these must be returned to my mother." ”
"If so, say it."
Jia Zheng bowed down once, "Mother, here's the thing. Today's emperor Long En wants to let the concubines in the palace go home to save their relatives, but there must be a provincial villa at home, so I came to discuss with my mother this time about our family's construction of a provincial villa. ”
"You've already discussed it, and you're going to take the big girl back?" Jia Mu sat there and asked casually.
"Yes, I have this plan, I think I haven't seen much over the years, this time the emperor opened Longen, so I want to take the eldest girl home and let her go home to have a look." Jia Zheng said his words truthfully like Jia's mother.
"Since you've all made up your mind, I don't have anything to say, just do what you want."
When Jia Zheng heard Jia's mother agree, he didn't leave immediately, but looked around, and then stood there silently.
Jia Mu naturally knew what Jia Zheng meant, so she waved her hand and said to the people below, "You all retreat." ”
The grandmother and maid in the house quietly exited Jia's mother's room in turn.
"Tell me, what's so mysterious?" Jia's mother complained about Jia Zheng.
"Mother, it's because the money for repairing the provincial villa this time is a little insufficient, so I specially came to my mother to discuss." Jia Zheng was silent for a moment before he spoke.
Jia Mu frowned, thought for a moment before asking him, "What do you mean by discussing?" ”
"Although our family has lived a more prosperous life over the years, after all, we have just been able to have a surplus, and I am afraid that we will not be able to take out so much money to repair the villa." Jia Zheng said with some embarrassment.
"Since the money is not enough, don't you want the old woman to pay for me, so that's it, the money will be given to you when I go, you take it now, and save trouble in the future." Jia Mu said unhappily, after all, no one wants to take out their own bodies.
"Don't dare, don't dare, the son is just confused, and he doesn't dare to touch his mother's pension money, what the son means is that it is better to use his niece's dowry money first." Jia Zheng hesitated for a long time before telling the truth.
"Phew, bastard, who gave you this idea, you should be pulled out and killed, our Rongguo Mansion has not yet reached the point of using an orphan girl to marry money." Mother Jia really likes Lin Daiyu, as soon as you heard Jia Zheng finish saying this, your face changed. didn't care about Jia Zheng's face, so he scolded him.
When Jia Zheng saw that Jia's mother was angry, he quickly knelt on the ground and listened to Jia's mother's lesson honestly.
Jia Mu scolded a few words, and when she saw Jia Zheng kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to reply, she stopped her mouth and said, "Is our house so poor?" Without this money, wouldn't it be possible to build a provincial villa? ”
As soon as Jia Zheng heard Jia's mother's question, he quickly replied: "Although our house has recovered some vitality over the years, after all, the time is too short. Coupled with the expenses of the house, there is not much silver left every year. This is still because the eldest brother gives us another 50,000 taels every year, otherwise we will not be able to make ends meet. ”
Jia Zheng was also a little weak when he said this, Jia Zheng also knew about the pomp and circumstance of Rongguo Mansion over the years, and he was the biggest beneficiary, and now the money in the mansion is not in hand because they have been too extravagant over the years.
Jia Mu frowned a little when she heard this, but thinking about it, the pomp and circumstance in the mansion over the years was much bigger than before, and it had even caught up with Jia Daishan's time. Coupled with the ushering in the send-off, it is already good to be able to have some surplus.
"Don't touch Daiyu's things, my wife is still a little considerate, and it's important to take it out and repair the villa first." Mother Jia thought about it, or don't touch Daiyu's things yet, after all, this is Daiyu, the guarantee of her future life, and she, as a grandmother, should give Daiyu this thing.
Moreover, Jia's mother is also a little worried about Lin Daiyu's future, usually in Jia's mother's heart, Lin Daiyu is best matched with Jia Baoyu, so that the two people she loves the most can always be by her side.
However, Jia's mother hinted to Mrs. Wang several times, and Mrs. Wang diverted the topic with other words, and Jia's mother watched coldly, and Mrs. Wang was probably unwilling to marry them Baoyu.
Jia's mother is also very worried about this matter, since ancient times, marriage has been the words of the matchmaker at the behest of her parents, since Mrs. Wang is unwilling, she has no way to force it. Now Jia Mu can only delay this matter first to see if there is an opportunity in the future.
No, after waiting for so long, the time has come. Jia Mu understood what he meant when Jia Zheng mentioned the silver just now, but she pretended not to understand and deal with Jia Zheng, and asked him to tell him about it himself.
And whether Jia Zheng is because of face or true filial piety, he really doesn't want to touch Jia's mother's money, so he hesitated again and again, but still said Jia Ke and Jia Lian's ideas.
"Mother doesn't have to be like this, we mean this, I watched Baoyu and Daiyu grow up together, childhood sweethearts, so I thought it would be better to give Daiyu to our family Baoyu, which can be regarded as kissing and kissing. Then Daiyu's dowry silver is also our family's own thing, let's use it first. It's not too late to wait until the house has slowly saved enough to compensate my niece. I don't know what my mother thinks? Jia Zheng's face turned red when he said this, he had never been so embarrassed in his life, and for the sake of this money, it was almost equivalent to selling his son.
When Jia Mu heard this, not only was she not unhappy, but she smiled, she originally had this meaning, she had been waiting for Jia Zheng to speak by herself just now, and now Jia Zheng brought it up by herself, how could Jia Mu not be happy. Since then, Mrs. Wang has no choice but to disagree.
"If it's like this, it's not impossible, if Daiyu is destined to marry into our family, our family has temporarily moved her things, and it won't be unreasonable to go back in the future." Jia Mu had a smile in her eyes at this time, and she agreed. This time she can be relieved, her two hearts and livers can be regarded as together in the future, so that even if she dies, she can be worthy of her daughter under Jiuquan, as for the silver, it is nothing.
Mother Jia is really worried about Daiyu all the time, and she was bullied elsewhere, and with her personality, she is afraid that it will not take long for her to end up depressed. Now I am finally relieved.
Jia Mu thought about it, this is not safe with a word, in case Mrs. Wang regrets it at that time, she has nothing to do with Mrs. Wang, and even if she punishes Mrs. Wang, she has to see Wang Ziteng's face, and it will be too late to regret it then.
So Jia's mother said to Jia Zheng: "Since you have agreed to their marriage, you should find a serious time to pass the paperwork, and this matter can be regarded as settled." After that, if you use her money, does Daiyu know? It won't be annoying. ”
Jia Zheng was also relieved when he heard Jia's mother agree, and a smile appeared on his face at this time, "Mother, don't worry, I'm going to find someone to go to the official media to have someone write the paperwork." Let them exchange tokens, and this matter will be here for the time being. After all, the niece has two filial pieties, and it is not good for them to do a lot of things at this time. ”
Jia Mu felt very satisfied when she heard Jia Zheng arrange this. Jia Zheng has taken everything into account this time, and he can be regarded as having done this matter successfully.
"In this case, you should do these things as soon as possible, and when the time comes, come to me with the marriage certificate to get the key, and build a villa for your mother as soon as possible, so that she can come back to save her relatives." Jia Mu was still a little uneasy, and urged Jia Zheng a few words.
At this time, the mandarin duck who was outside had already heard the conversation between Jia Mu and Jia Zheng through the window, and she was also a little happy after hearing this.
After thinking about it as it was, he instructed the little maid next to him and said, "You guys watch here, if the old lady has something to do for a while, you keep an eye on it for a while, and I'll be back soon." ”
After the mandarin duck finished speaking, he turned around and went to the house where Daiyu lived.
After the mandarin duck came to the room where Lin Daiyu lived, she saw Lin Daiyu sitting in front of the bed and playing with Nine Links. Zijuan gave her ideas on the side, but the more she helped, the more she helped, and the nine links not only did not unravel, but became a mess.
When Lin Daiyu was angry, she saw the mandarin duck come in, threw the nine links on the bed, and said, "Don't play, I can't help you more and more today." ”
Zijuan also saw the mandarin duck coming in at this time, so she hurriedly greeted her, took her hand, and sat on the edge of Lin Daiyu's bed.
"What kind of wind has blown the chief manager of our house?" Zijuan and Mandarin Duck also grew up in a small place, so they are more casual when they talk.
The mandarin duck sat next to Lin Daiyu and looked at Lin Daiyu carefully, before answering Zijuan and said, "It was Zhuge Liang's east wind that blew me here." Come to you today, and you will have to reward me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have told you this news. ”
After listening to Mandarin Duck's words, Lin Daiyu and Zijuan were a little stunned, they didn't understand the meaning of Mandarin Duck's words.
