Lin Daiyu's reminder of Jia Cong is half in the ear, half in the ear, and half in the ear, what is in the ear is how to transfer the father's property, which is not only sad about the early death of her mother and her father's illness, but also at a loss and afraid of the future. Jia Cong is a person who can care about people after all, if he doesn't really put it forward, she will not pay attention to it at all when she is addicted to the spiritual world. What doesn't come to my ears is Baoyu's incident, I think she entered Beijing at the age of six, smart and precocious, it was the period of plasticity of spiritual character, Jia Baoyu will indeed pity the beauty, and grow up with Baoyu for several years, that kind of intimacy, mutual influence, and lifelong origin, but there is no one around him who can compare with it.

Stubborn bureaucratic families have their own fierceness, whether it is the West or the East in the Middle Ages, Oriental aristocratic women like to grow their nails, which means that they are not lowly people who do rough work, in Confucian norms, women's observance and single-mindedness have reached a general consensus, how can Lin Daiyu, who grew up after the liehous, scholars, and Jinshi families, avoid it, and initially liked Baoyu in her heart, and abandoned it regardless of the situation, Baochai may be able to do it, but she can't do it, and there is always more emotion than reason, This is also the reason why the political arena is almost exclusively for men.

"Well, I remember." Lin Daiyu responded frankly and boasted: "Brother Cong is obsessed with his profession and almost doesn't hear the rumors of lingering in the boudoir, which is also commendable." ”

"Sister Lin is laughing, it's not that Qingwen and I can't play."

"I don't think it's a joke, that year you fought with Lian's sister-in-law and helped the second sister clear the thieves, so that later, Brother Huan is a little smart, a small ghost, you are a big wisdom." Lin Daiyu said it clearly, what did she say, and because of this kind of frankness, she would inadvertently offend people.

Talking to such a girl is actually very easy and stress-free, even if this girl is smart and wise, at least she doesn't hide her bad intentions, Lin Daiyu also feels that the rumored Jia Cong is different from the real Jia Cong, she said this, Jia Cong just smiled, Lin Daiyu said curiously: "Can Jia Yan have another explanation for you?" In the future, what will you do? ”

"My aunt doesn't tell me about big things." Jia Cong knew what Lin Daiyu was worried about, and said seriously: "Naturally, it is the merit and the Qi family." ”

Lin Daiyu breathed a sigh of relief, if her father entrusted her to Jia Cong, she didn't know how to face it, and she was a little troubled, so she nodded and said, "Just like they become officials?" ”

"Well, that is, rich and women, vulgar or not?"

"It's cheesy, but it's serious."

"Sister Lin is tired, I'll retire first." Jia Cong stopped at the right time and returned to the study.

"It's all suffocated to me, rich have distant relatives in the mountains, and distant relatives are not close after all, so they have to hold on." Lin Daiyu waited for Jia Cong to leave, stood upright, walked around the paper screen with weak willow support, and said with a smile: "Zijuan, look at your bad idea." ”

Zijuan pursed her lips and smiled: "Master Cong is not the second master of Bao, and now the girl is not very young, and it is good to hold it." ”

Guan Chaosheng is an outstanding staff member of the Yangzhou Salt Patrol Imperial History, a native of Shanyin, Shaoxing Prefecture, Zhejiang, a member of the Eastern Zhejiang School, when he was ordered to meet Lin Ruhai, Lin Ruhai talked to Daiyu again on this day, and it was more of a family relationship.

"The moss and white dew are cold, and there are people walking in secluded places......" Guan Chaosheng saw the white dew, it was slightly cold in the early morning, and the moss was under the stage, and a sentence of the West Chamber was silently recited in his heart, as soon as Lin Ruhai went, he lost an owner.

"Prime Minister Guan, please take a seat, when is the ship scheduled?" Lin Ruhai leaned on the soft couch and asked.

"On August 21, the salt of the two Huai salt farms set off in batches as usual, and the salt transportation was escorted by the Yamen. That Jia Xiaoxianggong has seen it below, and the ten-year-old talent is really embarrassing, but he can just look at this matter, and it is not appropriate to interfere. Guan Chaosheng cooked tea, the boiling white water washed down, and said categorically: "Otherwise, wouldn't it be ridiculous." ”

Lin Ruhai looked at Longjing before the rain for a while: "Before Shi Brown (Zhongjinshi) and became an official, who didn't have the ambition to govern the country and level the world?" Establish a heart for heaven and earth, and establish a life for the people...... But after the ups and downs of the sea and the collapse of officialdom, the mood is completely different, and the ambitions of the past seem ridiculous so far...... I still remember that there is a Canglang Pavilion in my hometown in Suzhou, and the middle school students visited it that year, Wu Yue has a saying, do you know? ”

Guan Chaosheng said calmly: "I know, the water of the waves is turbid, you can wet me, and the water of the waves is clear, you can wet my feet." There is a couplet in Suzhou Canglang Pavilion: The breeze and the moon are priceless, and there is love near the water and far mountains. ”

"That's it, he's still young, he doesn't understand, cough cough...... Among the official salt, how much private salt is there? ”

"Not much, more than 3,000 quintals, this time it is less, except for a few yamen, salt merchants, and banknotes, the rest are only a few hundred thousand." Guan Chaosheng analyzed: "The Holy Lord has destroyed Jinling Weaving, Hangzhou Weaving, and Suzhou Weaving, and the deficit is serious, not to mention that the Jinling Zhen family has taken over the emperor four times, how can this deficit be made up...... On our side, the Holy Grace is tolerant, so don't worry about it for the time being. ”

"However, what Jia Xiaoxianggong said about family wealth, Dong Weng, I have a few good words. It was the next policy to send all of them to the Jia family, and at that time, Mrs. Zun was also married with interests, so it is difficult to say whether she can take care of Ling Yuan at this time. ”

Lin Ruhai said half-deadly: "What is the middle strategy and the best policy?" ”

Guan Chaosheng said: "The middle strategy is a compromise, the Lin family to Dong Weng is a single lineage, the distant relatives in the clan are not reliable, not a descendant, and a son is also unjustifiable." If he compromises, half of it will be sent to the Jia family, after all, the second master of Lian will definitely have this purpose, and it will also make Ling Yuan have no worries. The other half is deposited in the bank, and Jia Cong's household registration certificate is taken when the ticket is issued. The best policy, Dong Weng wrote a will, and the Lin family's property was used as Ling Yuan's dowry, so he simply wrote a letter quickly to negotiate and set a man from Jiafu, and in his opinion, Jia Cong was also the most suitable. ”

"How do you know that Jia Cong must be a righteous man and a gentleman? This person has great power and ambitions, unlike those who can be affectionate, if they choose the same, Jia Cong will inevitably give up his family feelings and take care of power, what happiness does my daughter have? Lin Ruhai's eyelids raised slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Besides, when my wife was alive, she had a deep relationship with me, and I trusted the Jia family." ”

Guan Chaosheng shook his head and said: "Dong Weng, people die for money, birds die for food, Jia Cong is not a righteous man, but he is by no means like a ruthless and righteous person." Fang Cai talked to him about salt politics in the future, and he also took into account the livelihood of the people. As the saying goes, once you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, not to mention the public mansion compound, where the parents are short and live together in several rooms, so that Yuan has no happiness at all. Why did Liu Ru, a strange woman of a generation, commit suicide, just to save the family property......"

"A fireworks woman, how can she compare with everyone's ladies? Being a concubine is insulting, inappropriate, inappropriate. Lin Ruhai said stubbornly: "Sir, go down first." ”

Guan Chaosheng said goodbye, brushed his sleeves out, packed up when he went back, and said in his heart: "I want to be Zhuge Liang, but now that officialdom is rampant, corruption is rampant, and the tail is too big." If you want to eliminate the evils for Shengming, you are willing to decay and cherish your old age, and you don't listen to the three advices, but the meat eaters are all Liu Adou...... Good birds choose trees to perch, and after patrolling the salt business, I still go to Jia Zili......"
