Chapter Thirty-Eight: Your Reaction Is Different From Your Plan
When Jia Rui was about to leave, Jia Lian came over, and his servant told him that many people were looking for Jia Rui to buy spells, and he hurried here because he was afraid that Jia Rui had already set the price, and if it was lower than his, then the people who had bought spells from him would think that Jia Lian was playing tricks on them.
Jia Lian's price is not much, one spell is one hundred taels of silver, and twelve are bought together for only one thousand taels.
This time I came to find Jia Rui as a last resort, and the first time I saw Jia Rui, he asked, "How much silver do you give them?" ”
Jia Rui said with a smile: "Second brother, don't worry, sit down and have a drink, I haven't promised them to sell it yet." ”
Hearing Jia Rui's words, he breathed a sigh of relief, sat down and took a sip of wine, and whispered to Jia Rui: "I sold everyone else a set of 1,000 taels of silver, and now I have sold four or five sets, if you buy cheaper than me, I will be a sinner." ”
Jia Rui said to Jia Lian with a smile: "I must be more expensive than Second Brother Lian, but don't be blushing at that time, Second Brother Lian, after all, I will earn more when I buy more people." ”
Jia Lian took another sip of wine, and when the two were talking, no one came around, they were all watching and thought that Jia Lian was looking for Jia Ruixing's teacher to ask for guilt.
"What really happened to you and your sister-in-law that day?"
The suddenness of this sentence made Jia Rui stunned for a moment, and he said to Jia Lian with some amusement: "How is it possible, don't say that there is no more, even if there is a secret, how can it be in an uproar."
Someone must have seriously injured me. I guess it was rumored in advance that when I was going to follow the brocade, someone was not convinced and wanted to pull me down. ”
Jia Rui's defense was reasonable, and it was in line with the mentality of the group of people in the Jia family, which made Jia Lian suspicious, and he asked, "Then why did you leave late?" ”
"My sister-in-law asked me to do something, I didn't want to do it, and finally I had to teach her a few spells to get through, you didn't see it, I was arrested and was already leaving." Jarry began to talk nonsense.
"Not really, so what's the point of the moaning they say?" Jia Lian believed it a little.
"It's all nonsense, just ask Ping'er and you'll know." Jia Rui believes that Wang Xifeng will not let Ping'er show his flaws, and the biggest amount may be that she has replaced Ping'er with a person, who is absolutely reliable and will not say anything unfavorable to Wang Xifeng.
Jia Rui knew that if he said too much, he would lose and couldn't follow Jia Lian's question, so he said to Jia Lian: "There are a lot of people who come to ask, aren't you going to talk to them?" ”
Jia Lian shook his head. "I can't get in touch with them, once I get in touch with them, those sons of the family will think that I am not with them, just like you will never be able to enter the banquet of those sons, even if Xue Pan has taken you a few times, you will not be regarded as a guest.
There is also Liu Xianglian, even if his family has fallen, he can participate in those banquets at will if he is a sister-in-law, and no one will let him in. What delays you is your partiality status. ”
"In other words, I can only get out of the way, not be an official?" Jarry asked.
"No, the emperor can be an official if you are hand-picked, if not, then it's better not to, even if you can be admitted to the Jinshi, don't take the exam, it will make people think that you are very capable, and you will compete with the son-in-law of the family for the family property."
Not everyone wants to see that the side branch is stronger than the main trunk, and not all the concubines are stronger than the concubines, so even if you have the ability, those people will suppress you and make you unable to come out.
Because if you can really succeed in obtaining the title of the Jia family, you will set an example for other people's concubines and partial houses, and they will also be tempted, why is their ability not as good as their son-in-law to inherit the title, they can't. Jia Lian said.
Jia Rui knew this, but being able to hear it from Jia Lian's mouth meant that he recognized Jia Rui's ability. admits that he Jia Lian can't fight Jia Rui.
"Can you not see her in the future?" Jia Lian suddenly said again.
Jia Rui didn't react and asked, "Who are you seeing?" ”
"Who else! Your sister-in-law. I know she's beautiful, but she's your sister-in-law, so don't see her in the future, we're still a family. Jia Lian said.
Jia Rui will be completely speechless, he is still struggling with this, and he has already accepted his fate when he listens to the tone. This is different from what Jia Rui thought, shouldn't he be angry and kick him out of the house?
Can you only rely on your ability to make a comeback, and then counterattack them, and watch their rise and fall?
Why did you resign yourself to your fate?
No, Jia Lian, you have to burn your fighting spirit.
After thinking about it, Jia Rui said to Jia Lian: "The eldest husband has three wives and four concubines, how can you be lowered by her, you have to rise up, if she really has something, she will kill all the adulterers (husbands) and women, why bother without a wife." ”
Jia Lian looked at him for a long time, sighed and stopped talking.
The two drank quietly for a while.
Jia Lian asked again, "How much are you going to sell?" ”
Jia Rui thought for a while and said: "I guess those people don't talk about morality, they must take your things and sell them to others immediately, so I want to ask for more, a spell of one hundred taels of gold, no discount." One of the ones you bought was enough, and if you bought two, I earned it. ”
"Isn't it a little too much?" Jia Lian asked.
"Those who want to buy this are definitely not short of that bit of gold, but their money is not clean, and they dare not spend it on the noodles, I don't mind how they get it, and when I get it, I melt the jewelry and give it to the sisters in the garden." Jarry replied.
"Don't you keep some for yourself?" Jia Lian was surprised, he didn't expect Jia Rui to care about such a large sum of money.
"I want the silver to have a way to earn it, so why bother with such a hot thing."
Jia Lian was silent again, this is really shocking, he can't make much money even if he doesn't hesitate to take risks, and when he gets to Jia Rui, he can get it at will, and he doesn't want clean money.
After drinking for a while, Jia Lian left, his mood was even worse than when he came, although Jia Rui denied the matter with Wang Xifeng, but how could he, a veteran of Fengyue, not see the changes in Wang Xifeng.
Seeing that Jia Rui was hit again, he knew why Sister Feng was like that, and with Jia Rui's talent, it was normal to attract them.
After Jia Lian left, those who inquired about the price came up again, and they knew that the two had finished discussing, so they came up and began to shush the cold and ask for warmth.
Jia Rui said impatiently: "I'm going back, I already know the price, it's the same as Second Brother Lian's, it's one hundred taels of spells, but I don't discount it." Oh, by the way, you remember that it's not silver, it's gold, and you have to make it clear that there are not all that are sold, but only twelve that are bought together. One last word of caution, don't take a chance and think you can buy and sell separately from me. That thing will die when it looks at it, and I am dissatisfied with you and said, I gave King Beijing a set, and it took him three or four people to get the second one, and you have a few lives enough to fill it. ”
After saying that, he ignored the crowd and pretended to be drunk and staggered away.
Jia Rui returned to his home and found that Shi Xiangyun had also returned, she seemed to have something on her mind, Jia Rui asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"I miss my parents a little." Shi Xiangyun said frankly.
Jia Rui was stunned for a moment, and replied with some difficulty: "It's not impossible to ask your father to come, but I'm afraid that when he comes, the capital will be gone." ”
Shi Xiangyun slapped Jia Rui and said with a smile: "I didn't mean him, I meant my parents in the Shi family." ”
"This is strange, you don't seem to have seen it at all, didn't you die when you were an infant?" Jia Rui hugged Shi Xiangyun and asked.
"I thought if they were alive, I might not be where I am now." Shi Xiangyun lay in Jia Rui's arms and did not move.
"Then I won't have a daughter-in-law." Jia Rui said with a smile.
"No, I may be Sister Feng to be your wife." Shi Xiangyun said suddenly.
Jia Rui understood when she heard Shi Xiangyun's words, she also heard the rumors, and explained: "Don't listen to people's nonsense, there is nothing to do." ”
"You say that it's true, I heard that you forced Sister Feng, this matter is big or small, what are you going to do?" Shi Xiangyun sat up and asked solemnly.
"I don't know, maybe I don't have to do anything." Jia Rui was also a little dazed, this matter is just a rumor now, and the lethality of himself is not high at all, but the damage to Wang Xifeng is very high.
During the New Year's Festival, Wang Xifeng and Mrs. Wang had a treat, and Jia Rui also invited Feng Ziying once, and sent gifts and greetings to King Beijing, who received gifts and told them that they had no time to see him.
Until the fifteenth year, Jia Rui went to attend Jia's mother's family banquet, Jia Rui didn't want to go, but because of Shi Xiangyun, he had to go.
