Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is July 18, and there are only seven or eight days left before Jia's mother's birthday banquet. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Jiafu has begun to be lively, relatives who are far away have arrived in Jiafu one after another, Jia Zheng also took leave and began to discuss some things at home.

Although he still doesn't care about anything, he still has to do this gesture.

On this day, Ping'er returned home.

Ping'er had two tasks on this trip, one was to send a congratulatory gift of 3,000 taels of silver to the old lady on behalf of Jia Min, and the other was to find Baoyu and Jia Rong to discuss the termination of the gambling contract between them and Jia Min.

Both of these things are done publicly. There were a lot of people present, so it spread quickly.

The old lady happily accepted the money, and praised Jia Min in front of everyone, saying that he would make money.

talked about betting with Baoyu and Jia Rong, but was rejected by the two of them on the spot.

Not to mention that it was just Ping'er coming, even if Jia Min came in person, they would not agree.

After the news reached the masters, except for Jia Zheng, who sighed and said "evil animal", everyone else was very excited. Only Qin Keqing listened, looking thoughtful, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

On the night of Ping'er's return home, Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun, Wei Ruolan and Qiu Liang worked together to invite Baoyu and Jia Rong to have wine in Yuhua Building.

During the casual conversation during the banquet, Jia Min was inevitably talked about. Because Feng Ziying and the others are now doing business with Jia Min, they asked Baoyu and Jia Rong to raise their noble hands, let Jia Min go, and cancel the gambling contract between them.

And said that Jia Min promised that as long as the top and bottom of Jiafu withdrew all the bets placed in the Liansheng gambling house, he would make up another part according to the money.

Because he didn't want to see so many people in the house suffer. If he really doesn't withdraw, Jia Min won't miss friendship, and he will have to bet on Liansheng Gambling House to buy himself to win.

And said that anyway, he had money in his hands, and Baoyu had no money in his hands, and when the time came, he would scare Baoyu and Jia Rong back with the money. Could it be that the two of them can still motivate the whole house to bet again?

When this news came back to the house, it was naturally interpreted as Jia Min's bluff. And Baoyu and Jia Rong visited everywhere overnight and mobilized the people in the house to continue betting. In order to reassure others, the two also promised that if they lost, the cost would be borne by the two of them.

So, early the next morning, in the flower hall, another wave of betting climax was set off.

At the same time, the news of Yeduju also continued to spread back to the house.

It is said that Jia Min has ordered that the winery in Yeduju has stopped, and he is currently contacting the matter of selling pigs, but because the price has not been negotiated, he is still continuing to sell the pigs.

It is said that as long as the original fixed money is completed, this business will be temporarily suspended.

As for what to do in the future, Jia Min didn't say anything, so he had to let it go first.

News from other areas has also kept coming back.

The long-distance transportation business of Jia Min and Feng Ziying has also been temporarily suspended, and what to do in the future has not yet been decided.

A few days ago, Niu Jizong, Liu Fang, Chen Ruiwen, and Ma Shangde's bus and carriage business had already opened, and in the past few days, the business has been very hot.

As a world friend, Jia Lian, Baoyu, and Jia Rong from Jiafu also went to congratulate. I also met Jia Min there. It's just that Jia Min seems to have drunk too much and staggered, and he didn't say anything when he saw a few people, and he stayed for a while before leaving.

From Dajinmen, news about Jia Min also came out. Although it is not Jia Min's own, it is also related to Jia Min.

It turned out that it was Fang Xiucai, who was always in Yeduju, and when he was eating and drinking in Yuhua Building, he had a conflict with a group of people who came to the imperial capital to take the exam, and almost got into a fight.

It turned out that Fang Xiucai was crazy because of those movers who questioned Jia Min's plagiarism, saying that on the third day of the eighth lunar month, whoever dared to go to Yeduju to see what auspicious rui and buy watermelons and apples would be killed.

As a result, the people were angry, and the men had united more than 1,000 people, and on the third day of the eighth month, they went to Yeduju to see how much the watermelons and apples could be sold for.

This incident attracted the attention of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and they said that when the time came, they would send troops to maintain order.

They don't care if they buy watermelons or not, but whoever wants to make trouble has to take someone on the spot.

Naturally, this matter can't scare the lifters, they have already released their words, and when the day comes, they must go. It's just to take a look, not to make trouble, not to mention its five-city soldiers and horses, even if the Royal Forest Army comes, it won't do anything to them.

Because Jia Zheng is a person from the Ministry of Industry, Wu Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry has already posted a post, and when the time comes, he will go to Jiafu to congratulate his subordinate's old mother on her birthday. Because of the appreciation of the talent of the prince of Jiafu, Luo Hanlin, Chen Hanlin and other poets of the current dynasty will also go together to learn poetry with Jia Min.

Some news about the Liansheng gambling house also spread into the house.

Someone once went to the gambling house to inquire if Jia Min also went to bet.

The matter of the gambler's bet is a secret of the gambling house, so the gambling house did not give an answer.

However, according to a guy who works at the casino, Jia Min has never been to the casino. This guy drank too much when he was eating with others, and said that their shopkeeper was sighing all day long.

Because these bets were won by buying Baoyu and Jia Rong, almost no Jia Min was won. Therefore, this time the gambling house has lost a lot.

News related to Jia Min circulates in all corners of Jia Mansion every day. People have once again witnessed the difference in the popularity of this illegitimate child.

The people talked about it, and that's it. Although they really wanted to make some money from this gamble, they felt a little sympathetic when they thought that this Fourth Master Min had made money and could give dividends to his subordinates.

No matter what he does, such a master still knows how to be considerate of his subordinates, and he is still the first one for so many years.

In the past few days, Zhou Rui is very happy, he laughs when he sees everyone, and he is always willing to tell people about Jia Min's coming, and sometimes, he even forgets that Jia Min is the master, and says that Jia Min's retribution has arrived.

The people who are generally happy are naturally the masters of the house. Of course, except for Baoyu, who can show his likes and dislikes unscrupulously, everyone else is more restrained.

However, as long as you observe a little carefully, you will find that the mood of the masters seems to be much better these days. Even Wang Xifeng, a fierce man who has always been strict with his subordinates, is much kinder.

Mrs. Wang usually keeps a straight face, but now that she meets people, she has a smile on her face.

Mrs. Xing usually doesn't talk to her subordinates much, but now when she meets them, she will also say a few words of sympathy.

Jia Rong greets people when she sees them, and walks with the wind. Sometimes he would bring it up inadvertently, and after a few days, someone would lead him to the horse.

Someone asked, who led you the horse?

Jia Rong would smile and say, "You know."

Even the reward for the little guy was much more generous, and he made a wish, saying that he would win the money in a few days, and he would give more rewards.

Even Aunt Xue, when she saw the old ancestor, she joked, in the final analysis, the old ancestor was blessed, and a big birthday could bring wealth and luck to the whole house. It turns out that this is the old birthday star and the God of Wealth in the sky, adding blessings and longevity to the ancestors.

The joy brought by the ancestor's birthday and the expectation of winning money made the people in the house happy.

However, the Orb and the Ruizhu are exceptions.

In the past few days, they have always walked around the house, and as soon as they heard the news about the fourth master, they hurried back to report to their grandmother Rong.

Now, they are very worried about their master, afraid that Grandma Rong will not be able to think about it.

As far as they knew, in the entire mansion, there was only their own master, who spent 2,000 taels of silver to buy the fourth master of Min to win.

Although I was always anxious for my master, I didn't dare to tell others about it, so I could only secretly hold it in my heart.

Once you let others know that Grandma Rong bought Min Siye and won, I am afraid that the spittle in the house will drown the master.

What makes them a little angry is that they are all worried about the death of the grandmother, but this master seems to be nothing. It seems that the 2,000 taels of silver taken out are not hers at all.

To say that Qin Keqing is not worried at all, it is false.

Whenever she heard what she said about Fourth Uncle Min, she was very worried. However, I don't know why, and then she said to herself in her heart, it's okay, Fourth Uncle Min will definitely be fine.

She didn't know where she got the idea to make her believe in Uncle Min so much.

"I know, you guys go down, you don't have to inquire in the future."

Although Baozhu and Ruizhu were puzzled, seeing that the master was like this, they couldn't say anything, so they comforted them and went down.

"Two little hooves, still come to comfort me, what am I afraid of? What kind of person is Fourth Uncle Min, where will he suffer, and those people should be comforted. ”

Qin Keqing said in his heart, sat down in front of the mirror again, and looked at his face.

In the past few days, Fourth Uncle Min is coming back, but I have to dress up well, if Fourth Uncle Min sees my sloppy appearance, it will not be good.

These days, Baochai's mood is not very good. She felt she had made a mistake.

This mistake is to ask my brother to buy the fourth brother Min to win.

First of all, it was my brother's mouth that was not strict, and when he met Baoyu, he actually told Baoyu about it directly.

Fortunately, only Baoyu knew, and now it has not been spread, if this had been someone else, it might have spread all over the mansion long ago.

Everyone else buys Baoyu to win, but I just buy Fourth Brother Min to win, if my aunt and the old lady know about this, it's not a good thing. If you can't get it right, you will put me in the group of Fourth Brother Min.

Although Baoyu didn't say it now, Baoyu has always been a quick talker, and he has to think of some way to tell him not to talk about it in the future.

Fortunately, Baoyu stopped it, so it didn't work. Otherwise, the 1,000 taels will also be lost.

Originally, I thought that Fourth Brother Min would be a way, but now it seems that he is in high esteem. The news that has come in the past few days is all unfavorable to him, and it seems that Fourth Brother Min will not be able to turn over this time.

Baochai took out the song "Wangjiangnan" from his sleeve, read it again, sighed, and locked it in the cabinet.

Alas, it's a pity for Fourth Brother Min.
