Chapter 161: The Present World Report (Reward and Update)
The sentence 'why bother to wronged yourself' is enough to show Jia Cong's attitude: he is not interested in the family property and connections of Rongguo Mansion!
Lin Ruhai's heart shook, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Jia Cong.
At such a young age, having such a lot of determination and ambition is quite remarkable.
Rongguofu is so big business, if he is qualified to compete, it is difficult to say whether he has the determination to give up categorically.
After thinking about it, I have to admire Jia Cong, this kid, has a long-term vision.
The big house and the second room of Rongguo Mansion are not in harmony, that is, one day the old lady goes, and it is not so simple to completely divide it.
The second master of Zheng has been in charge of Rongguo Mansion for many years, and Mrs. Wang, the wife in charge, still doesn't know what the situation of Rongguo Mansion is.
Not to mention it, according to the information that Lin Ruhai inquired, Mrs. Wang is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she has been quietly selling the ancestral property of Rongguo Mansion.
There are also those sons in the house, who have formed an intertwined network of relationships for generations, even if the main family wants to clean it up, it is not easy, unless they are ruthless.
can look at the Rongguo Mansion and others, except for the old lady, no one has such means, but unfortunately the old lady is already old, and she only wants to enjoy the honor and is not willing to toss.
Even if Jia Cong has the ability to take over the Rongguo Mansion, the internal troubles alone will be enough for him to drink a pot, and maybe he will make a big mistake.
On the contrary, it is better to quit early, with his ability, he can not earn a small family business, and the bookstore alone is running quite well, and I heard that he also bought a high-quality coal mine in the clouds.
Not only that, in order to repay the life-saving grace, the prince of Chu gave some of the clan property, which is the foundation of the roots.
It's not that I don't know, but I'm shocked!
Jia Cong, this kid is only eleven, and the value of the property at hand is already very high.
Even Lin Ruhai himself has the intention of giving away part of the Lin family's property.
It's just that it's too early for now, so let's wait and see.
At this point, Huansan, who is also the concubine of Rongguo's mansion, seems to have a bit of a pattern that is not enough, and he can't extricate himself from it.
This kid is also one of Jia Cong's younger brothers, but Lin Ruhai is keenly aware that this kid's gaze at the phoenix egg is very unkind, and the jealousy in his heart is almost revealed on his face.
With such a performance, Lin Ruhai was a little unsightly.
Before he showed enough ability and strength, as the concubine of Rongguo Mansion and the concubine of the second room, his dissatisfaction and jealousy towards his brother were so obvious that he was simply asking for hardship.
Of course, Lin Ruhai actually knows what this kid's problem is.
Huansan's unreliable mother obviously didn't convey the correct concept to this kid and led the good boy down the wrong path.
Fortunately, Jia Cong, the boss, did a good job, at least the Jingyi homework of Huan San was quite solid, and he had the opportunity to take the bright road of the imperial examination.
As for whether he can have great development in the future, it depends on whether he can break free from the small world of Rongguo Mansion.
As for the other teenagers, their foundation is much worse than Jia Cong and Huansan, and it would be good to be able to take the road of the imperial examination and jump out of the barrier, there is not much worth paying attention to.
However, Xue Pan, the head of the Xue family, was a little interesting, and he was tall when he became an adult early, but his eyes didn't have much brilliance, and he was a little more stunned.
It can be seen that this guy has great respect for Jia Cong, and always looks at Jia Cong's horse.
I heard that Jia Cong suppressed this guy by force, and he beat him a lesson from time to time, and he didn't give him the possibility of turning over from beginning to end.
Lin Ruhai has actually heard of this guy's reputation in Yangzhou.
The title of "Dumb Overlord" is not very good, but he is actually a spoiled gentleman.
Since the Xue family was in charge of it, the family business has fallen rapidly, and if there is no strong help, I am afraid that it will sink completely.
At the moment, it seems that following Jia Cong to mess around, I'm afraid that there will be an opportunity in the future to make the Xue family rise again?
These are all natural thoughts in Lin Ruhai's heart after coming into contact with Jia Cong's junior brother, and he couldn't help but smile dumbly after coming back to his senses.
It's too much to worry about......
It is obvious that Jia Cong has a plan in his heart, and there is no need to draw snakes and fingers, so as not to attract the dissatisfaction of this kid.
……
At noon, Lin Ruhai set up a sumptuous banquet to entertain Jia Cong and his younger brothers, and even turned down the invitations of several colleagues.
The guests and hosts enjoyed a meal, at least Lin Ruhai and Jia Cong were in a pretty good mood.
It can be seen that the younger brother of his subordinates has greatly increased his confidence after Lin Ruhai, a top literati in Daqing, and Tanhualang's comments, and they have more confidence in the imperial examination this year and next year.
During the meal, including Xue Pan's straw bag, the most talked about the imperial examination was the matter, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
Even Lin Daiyu, who was eating across the screen, also listened with relish, her eyes were shining, and she had an urge to participate in the discussion, but in the end she endured it.
It is estimated that the only thing that is unhappy is the phoenix egg.
He has always hated these, and even when Lin Ruhai and Jia Cong's younger brother Yan Yan talked about the imperial examination, his face showed undisguised disdain and disdain.
Even, this guy is not happy to mix with 'stinky men' such as Lin Ruhai and Jia Cong, and wants to dine with Sister Lin.
Fortunately, the old housekeeper Lin was prepared, and sent a few beautiful maids to wait, and this kid quickly threw Sister Lin aside with a sweet mouth, and only cared about giggling with the beautiful sisters.
This scene is that Xue Pan's bastard is a little blind, Nima is in the Lin family, not Rongqing Hall in Rongguo Mansion, Baoyuya, are you really so casual?
Lin Ruhai saw it in his eyes, but he was unhappy in his heart, and it is estimated that the impression of a playboy is indispensable for Phoenix Egg.
Jia Cong completely ignored it, it had nothing to do with him, but the Jiangnan food carefully cooked by the chef of the Lin family made him praise and stutter four large bowls.
This is also because after his cultivation has been successful, his demand for qi and blood energy has slowly returned to normal, otherwise he would be able to kill the ten bowls alone, as well as most of the dishes and soup on the table.
But that's it, it's still called Lin Ruhai, and the phoenix egg and Lin Daiyu I saw for the first time were stunned.
The phoenix egg is really unscrupulous, of course, he is innocent, and bluntly said Jia Cong's enduring nickname in Rongguo Mansion - big rice bucket!
This time, don't say that Lin Ruhai, the master, can't hang his face and can't come to the stage, it's Jia Cong's younger brothers, including Xue Pan, who are all unhappy.
Nima, do you talk like that?
Lin Ruhai has rich experience, and he can see that the phoenix egg is an 'unintentional mistake', but he is also quite unhappy, and his evaluation of the phoenix egg is much lower.
Xue Pan and the other younger brothers didn't have such a powerful eye, they only felt that the phoenix egg was mocking their own boss.
If it weren't for the etiquette, as well as the old lady and the second wife behind the phoenix egg, Jia Cong, the boss of his own family, would not show the slightest annoyance, for fear that he would break up unhappily on the spot.
"Haha, you have a good appetite and a good body, looking at the way you can't even eat two bowls of rice, no wonder your body bones are not strong enough!"
Jia Cong smiled and spat fragrantly, and immediately ridiculed all the people including Lin Ruhai, which immediately caused a burst of laughter, and the original embarrassing atmosphere in the room was swept away.
"Yes, just eat more and be healthy!"
Lin Ruhai was deeply touched, but he didn't take the unhappiness just now to heart, glanced at Jia Cong's increasingly tall and majestic body, and couldn't help but smile: "If you like to eat, come and eat more in the future, the Lin family still has this bit of financial resources." Seeing that you kid is eating so hard, my appetite is also a lot better! ”
There was another burst of laughter, and the lunch ended on a cheerful note.
Phoenix Egg rejected Jia Cong's proposal to go back to the house together, he bluntly wanted to accompany Sister Lin, Jia Cong clearly saw the corner of Lin Ruhai's mouth twitching a few times not far away.
Okay, you kid Niubi!
Jia Cong was too lazy to say, took his little brother to Lin Ruhao to say goodbye, and then left the Lin family under the personal send-off of the old housekeeper Lin.
first went to the clan school, and then skipped class again and wandered in the book club for an afternoon, and only then did Shi Shiran return home when the sun set.
It's just that......
When I was dining in the main hall of the General's Mansion, I felt that the eyes of the maids around me were strange.
He didn't ask curiously, he still finished his dinner in an orderly manner, and only found out what was going on when he returned to the small courtyard where he lived.
It turned out that in the afternoon, with Lin Daiyu and Phoenix Egg returning to Rongguo Mansion together, there was soon a rumor about Jia Cong in the mansion.
What did Jia Cong, a concubine, want to eat swan meat, and he didn't weigh his identity, but he had the face to go to Lin's house to eat and drink!
What's even more ugly is that Jia Cong, the general's concubine, didn't know what means he had used to confuse Aunt Lin, and he actually let this guy take a cadre of students who didn't learn and didn't know how to go to the Lin family to deceive.
Anyway, through the mouth of the gossip little girl, I know a lot of related rumors.
In a word, Jia Cong, the general's concubine, is restless, and he thinks about hugging his thighs and climbing high branches, which is really a shame for Rongguofu.
Jia Cong really wondered, where did this talent come from, and such a funny and unreliable rumor could fly?
Seeing that the little maid Lingque looked indignant, even the nurse Li Shi was displeased, he had to comfort: "It's okay, the mouth grows on someone else, as long as it's not a blatant ginseng rooster, don't take it too seriously!" ”
Speaking of this, he raised his eyebrows lightly, and recounted the behavior of the phoenix egg in the Lin family's cattle competition, which really shocked the little maid and the nurse a lot, and they forgot to share the same hatred for all kinds of rumors in the house.
"So, with the second brother Bao in front of him, even if the situation is bad, it is so bad that it is limited!"
Jia Cong smiled and said leisurely: "You don't know what the situation is in the house, why do you do so much, some people are dirty, and they have faces to laugh at others!" ”
The little maid nodded heavily, and suddenly smiled and said: "What the third young master said is so right, in the evening, the little maid heard a news, it seems that Zhou Rui, the second wife's right-hand man, was arrested by the government!" ”
Tut!
Jia Cong was stunned for a moment, and then he was full of tears and laughter, rubbed the little girl's hair fiercely, and said leisurely: "This is called the ...... of the present world."
