On the first day of August, the seventy-fifth birthday of Mrs. Shi of Rongguo Mansion has entered the sixth day. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Since July 26, the birthday banquet has been held at the same time in the two mansions of Rongning, and the people in the two mansions, the clansmen of the Jia family, relatives, world friends, friends and colleagues of the masters, etc., began to come in an endless stream to congratulate the birthday.

At this time, news came from the palace that Jia Yuanchun had won the favor of the saint and was promoted from the female historian to the secretary of Fengzao Palace.

Jia Yuanchun originally entered the palace through the draft. These people are not necessarily all concubines, and there are some other places to go. For example, as a female official in the palace, she accompanied the princess, concubine, etc. to study, and even some were palace maids.

The Shangshu of Fengzao Palace is actually the housekeeper of Fengzao Palace, that is, the housekeeper of the concubines who live in Fengzao Palace. Although she has not yet become a concubine, she is also the first person under a concubine.

The status of the future depends on the status of the concubine she serves, and the second is to see if she can rise to prominence and get the favor of the saints.

Anyway, on the occasion of Jia's mother's birthday, this news came to Jiafu, which was a great joy for Jiafu. It makes the house feel very glorious up and down.

In addition to this matter, people are mainly concerned about the illegitimate child who has been widely rumored.

Of course, no one will take the initiative to mention this matter, but in private, when they get together in twos and threes, they will inevitably talk about this person. Especially those guests from outside, they want to see, what kind of guy is this?

People pay attention to Jia Min, and their motivations are also different. Most people just want to see the excitement. However, for some families who have dealings with Jiafu, it has a different meaning.

The problem of disobedient or unfavored concubines and illegitimate children also exists in other families. Although there is no such fun as Jia Min, many times, it is also a headache. It would be interesting to see how Jia dealt with this issue.

Perhaps, Jiafu's handling method will become a reference for them in dealing with such problems in the future.

Of course, there are still some people who come to make friends with Jia Min. If Jia Min falls out with Jia Fu or is even expelled from Jia Fu, they will immediately befriend Jia Min.

Their purpose is also very simple, that is, to target Jia Min's business talents.

The attention of the people in Jia Fuzhong is more detail-oriented.

First of all, Jia Min gave a congratulatory gift of 3,000 taels of silver before the banquet, and then, when the banquet was held on July 26, he went back to the house to kowtow to the ancestor, but because the ancestor was busy, he didn't see the ancestor in the end.

Although it is said that he came to kowtow to the ancestors, people believe that Jia Min must have come to the ancestors to intercede. Ask the ancestors to help cancel the two gambling contracts.

It is said that Jia Min didn't even eat that day and left. However, some people present at the time said that Jia Min originally wanted to eat in the mansion, but Zhenbin did not arrange a seat.

After this word spread, Zhenbin responded that it was not that he did not give the arrangement, but that there was something on it. As for who said this, Zhenbin didn't dare to say it. However, later something came out, saying that it was said by Lian's second grandmother.

People are right when they think about it, and now this birthday banquet is organized by Lian's second grandmother. If the second grandmother didn't speak, no one would dare to assert herself.

Today, word came out again, saying that it was Miss Ping'er and the two maids of the fourth master, because they were busy in the house, and they were also called back to the house to help.

It depends on how you say it.

If you are busy, these days are indeed busy. However, no matter how busy they are, they are not bad for these three people. Although it is busy, there are many people who are lazy and slippery.

Besides, the Ping'er girl was originally loaned to the fourth master, and now it is not the time to return it. The two maids also called back, didn't the fourth master just serve him?

There are eight maids in Bao Erye's room, and they just laugh and play every day, so busy, I haven't seen one of them come out to help. This is obviously not waiting to see the fourth master.

There are even rumors that as soon as Miss Ping'er returned home, she went to see Bao Er Ye and Uncle Rong to intercede for Min Siye, saying that they wanted to cancel their gambling contract with Min Siye, but they were rejected by the two. In the end, Miss Ping'er cried loudly.

Yesterday, the second master patrolled around the mansion and did not see the fourth master, and it was said that he was furious. scolded the fourth master for not being sensible, and he didn't even show up on the old lady's birthday.

For some reason, it also reached the ears of the old lady at this time, which made the old lady very unhappy. Today, I sent someone to reprimand the fourth master, telling him that he must be present on the third day of the eighth month.

Subsequently, some people who are usually a little resourceful began to analyze, saying that this was a plan to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle.

August 3rd is the day when Min Siye wants to sell watermelons, if he arrives in the house on that day and is not in Yeduju, how can he sell his watermelons?

Although no one believed that three acres of watermelons would be sold for 5,000 taels of silver, since it was a bet, it was necessary to give people a chance, so that they could lose convincingly.

Ping'er, Fenghua, and Xueyue were indeed called back by Wang Xifeng.

When he was about to leave from Yeduju, Ping'er went to see Jia Min, Jia Min didn't say anything else, but just said: Go, come back after a few days.

However, Ping'er felt that she might never come back.

At this time, she was at Wang Xifeng's house, hiding here crying with Fenghua and Xueyue.

As soon as Ping'er returned to the mansion, she went to see Baoyu and Jia Rong. I want to beg them to cancel the bet.

She also knew that she was just a subordinate, and people might not listen to her. However, after following the fourth master, if she doesn't ask for it, she will regret it for the rest of her life.

Her efforts were naturally useless. Baoyu also said two good words, saying that it was too late to cancel it now. Jia Rong reprimanded Ping'er, and finally said that it was for the sake of Lian's second grandmother that she would spare her.

After coming back in a gloomy way, I heard Feng'er say that when the fourth master returned to the house that day, he didn't even eat.

Ping'er immediately burst into tears. Xindao: These people are really wolf-hearted. Even if he is a person who asks for food, he has to give a bowl of food when he catches up with this happy day, not to mention that he is a master after all. Even if you buy it with money, 3,000 taels of silver can't buy a meal?

It's really going to be wiped out, and I don't even want a little bit of decency.

Because he went to the kitchen to see the dishes, Wang Xifeng was stained with the smell of oil smoke, so he came back to change clothes. When I came out after changing my clothes, I saw that Ping'er was still crying there, and my heart softened a little.

"I knew that I was crying and crying, and I was expecting to ask you to come back to help, but I didn't think about it, but I invited an aunt and grandmother to come back, and I didn't even help the oil bottle when it was poured. Crying and crying, howling and mourning on the day of great joy, reach the ears of the old lady, be careful of your skin. ”

"So many people are idle and chatting there, just a few of us are missing? Without a few of us, this birthday banquet will not be held? Anyway, we're also people over there, and we're all back, who cares about him? ”

"Hey, you dead hoof, go out for a few days, this elbow will learn to turn outward, and the heart will be turned to outsiders?"

"Where is he an outsider? Even if you don't like it, you're always the master of the house, right? Besides, I didn't want to go in the first place, and who forced me to go? ”

"Okay, good, you're your aunt, I can't talk about you. Just when I invite back an ancestor. I'm so busy hitting the back of my head with my heel, I don't have time to talk to you right now. If you want to do it, if you don't want to do it, you can do it. Give me the truth, don't make trouble. ”

As he was talking, Zhou Rui's family came.

"Second grandma, there's not much wine, do you want to go to Yedu Juli and pull some back?"

"Didn't you pull back a little more when you went back?"

"I pulled some, I thought it would be enough, but who knows, it's not enough to check it today."

"I guess I told those handmen to go again. Tell them to be honest with their hands and feet. If you tell me to find out, I will chop off his paws. Ping'er, is there still wine there in Yeduju? ”

Seeing that Ping'er didn't squeak, Wang Xifeng knew that there was still one.

"Call the Venerable Master, and say that I said it, and bring back as much wine as there is left."

"That ......, where is Fourth Master Min?"

Zhou Rui's family was obviously a little hesitant.

"Why, I said, isn't it easy to do it? It's only been a day or two, who can jump anywhere? Besides, Second Master Lian is still there. When I got there, I went to find Second Master Lian. ”

"What about the silver?"

"It's all my own stuff, what more money do you need? Go ahead. ”

The one who went to Yedu Jula wine was Li Hua, the housekeeper of Ningguo Mansion.

Jiafu is only ten miles away from Yeduju, and it will take more than an hour to arrive.

Along the way, Li Hua was thinking about what to do when he arrived at Yeduju.

Although the people in the house tried to avoid the affairs of the fourth master, they were still paying close attention to it in private.

Sometimes, Li Hua actually sympathizes with this fourth master.

In less than three months, the business was booming, and a lot of money was handed over to the house.

However, it's no wonder that he was born at the wrong time, after all, he is not a descendant like Bao Erye.

Nowadays, there are decent people up and down in the whole house, and no one is willing to come forward to say a word for him. Such a master is not as good as a subordinate.

After thinking about it, Li Hua still decided that he should not come out directly in this matter. Since Second Master Lian is here, let's find Second Master Lian to come forward.

Jia Lian walked out of the gate and heard that he was here to pull wine, but he was a little embarrassed.

In the past two days, Jia Lian has actually had a very uncomfortable time.

Although Feng Ziying and the others were still polite to him, they no longer had the intimacy they had in the past. Obviously, it's a separation.

Blacksmith Liu and Liu Cheng treated each other coldly when they saw them. Wu Hongmei, who feeds pigs, often refers to Sang and scolds Huai when feeding pigs. Fang Xiucai and a few other scholars were sneering. Even the two minions, Jiao Li and Ning Er, love to ignore them.

As for the soldiers, they are even more hateful. As soon as he saw the people in the house approaching the garden, he shouted loudly. It's like treating them like thieves.
