Needless to say, Jia Yu has a lot of little wives, and he can only compete with a large group of people when he marries, and it will be difficult for Jia Yu to support himself when he separates in the future, so Jia Yu's prospects are bleak and he is not favored by the maids.

Jia Zheng is in the prime of life, but he can be pure-hearted and have few desires, for so many years, there is only one Aunt Zhao, and Mrs. Wang's methods are ruthless, how can any maid want to go over to find death.

Jia Lian is a potential stock, but he has Wang Xifeng, a tigress by his side, she and Mrs. Wang can be called the life-threatening double evil of Rongguo Mansion, and when the idle maids fall into their hands, they will be long-lived.

The remaining Jia Lan and Jia Huan are too young, and when they grow up, they will also reach the age when they should retire.

So choose and choose, there is only Jia Baoyu, an unmarried man of appropriate age.

In the past, Jia Baoyu was very sought-after, not only from a good background, but also the heart of Shi Lao Taijun, and his own conditions were even harder!

Every day, a large group of maids revolve around him, and there are proud women like Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai waiting to be his wife.

Now Jia Baoyu is even more incredible, not only is he studious and motivated, but he worships a big man like Liu Zongzhou as a teacher, and it is just around the corner to raise people in the future entrance examination, not to mention that he still has a business himself.

The maids below were all crazy, saying that Jia Baoyu had tens of thousands of taels of silver in his hands.

Handsome enough, with a good family background, amazing talents, rich and powerful, this kind of person is simply a woman's dream lover, comparable to the prince of Dubai in later generations.

The maids of Rongguo Mansion are looking forward to being able to enter Jia Baoyu's blue eyes, and then climb on his bedside, become an aunt, and ascend to the sky in one step!

When these maids saw Jia Baoyu, their eyes were eager to eat him.

Jia Baoyu is calm, anyway, these girls can't really pounce, he has always had an appreciative attitude towards these showy girls.

Walking into Rongqing Hall, Jia Yu and Jia Zheng were there, Shi Lao Taijun was sitting on the main seat, and there was a small bowl in front of everyone, which was covered with a lid.

Maybe it was because they got up too early, everyone looked bad, and Jia Yu had two big dark circles under his eyes, and he kept yawning, and he didn't know how many times he exercised last night.

After Jia Baoyu came in, he greeted Shi Lao Taijun, Jia Zheng and others as usual.

Then she winked at Lin Daiyu with a smile on her face, Lin Daiyu blushed, as if she remembered some unbearable things last night, and glared at him fiercely.

Xue Baochai on the side looked at her thoughtfully, his eyes wandering over Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, as if he wanted to find some clues.

Mrs. Shi smiled and said, "I'm just waiting for you to come over, hurry, come to grandma's side." ”

Jia Baoyu sat next to Shi Lao Taijun, opened the bowl, there were several green Lantern Festivals in it, he consumed a lot last night, he was hungry, and he didn't wait for Shi Lao Taijun's persuasion, he picked up a spoon and scooped a Lantern Festival into his mouth.

Seeing the sweetness of his food, Mrs. Shi smiled and said, "Is it delicious?" If it's delicious, you can eat more. ”

Then she instructed the mandarin duck to pour all the Lantern Festival in her bowl to Jia Baoyu.

Jia Baoyu said vaguely: "Grandma, why don't you eat?" ”

Mrs. Shi said: "It's too sweet, and it's sticky to my teeth, I ate two and I was full." ”

Shi Lao Taijun is seventy-three this year, and they all say that seventy-three, which is a hurdle, but that is all said to poor people, in Shi Lao Taijun, at the age of seventy-three, he is still very well maintained, and it will not be a problem to live for another ten or eight years.

In the original world, Mrs. Shi has passed her eightieth birthday and is still alive, if it weren't for the raid on Rongning's second mansion, it is unknown that this old lady would have lived to be ninety years old.

Shi Lao Taijun is old, likes to eat soft and rotten things, and does not like meat, the Lantern Festival is delicious, but the sugar is too much, too sweet, which in the opinion of food expert Shi Lao Taijun, is completely something that only people who don't know how to eat.

However, Jia Baoyu is young and in good health, and eating more sweet things will not affect anything.

Jia Huan, who was sitting at the end, saw that Mrs. Shi only cared about Jia Baoyu, and couldn't help pursing her lips, muttering in her heart: "Eat, eat, choke you!" ”

Halfway through the meal, Shi Lao Taijun said again: "Baoyu, you said last night that you were going to go outside the city, do you have an entourage by your side?" ”

Jia Baoyu said with a smile: "Naturally, there are, Hua'an and Wuda in the house, and besides, the place where I went is not far away, just in Heitu Village in the west of Wanping County." ”

At present, the western suburbs of the capital are quite peaceful, and the news of the invasion of Fangshan County by the Liukou is only known to a few people in the imperial court, and ordinary people still live a life of sunrise and sunset.

Except that the price of grain in the capital is still rising, and it has risen to a sky-high price of three taels of silver and one stone, which makes ordinary people miserable, it seems that everything has nothing to do with them.

However, people of the rank of Shi Lao Taijun will still know some inside information.

"The territory outside is not very peaceful, in the capital, grandma is not worried about where you go, but there is a disturbance outside the city, you go out now, grandma is not at ease."

Mrs. Shi said with trepidation, "The number of the two guards you said is too small, what can you do?" ”

Jia Yu wiped his mouth and said: "Baoyu's wings are hard now, didn't he even beat Lai Da last night, what are a few rogues, can they still hold him three punches and two kicks?" ”

Shi Lao Taijun glanced at him, and said angrily: "That's because they are loyal and don't dare to fight back, otherwise Baoyu is a child, how can he beat them as adults?" And you, the uncle, should also be more open-minded, don't worry about everything, and be selfless and wide-minded. ”

Jia Yu was reprimanded, bowed his head and said, "Yes, mother." ”

Shi Lao Taijun instructed Jia Yu again: "Go and select twenty family members, be bold, and pull them out so that you can't fall into the prestige of our Rongguo Mansion." ”

"Twenty? Wouldn't it be too much. Jia Yu muttered, "There are only thirty family members in the house, and more than half of them are gone at once, who will do the errand of taking care of the home and nursing home?" ”

In ancient times, thieves were rampant, and the average large family would raise a few families, even if it was a rich man in the countryside, he would recruit two long-term workers to come to see the family.

After all, the speed of information transmission in ancient times was slow, and the government was not very close, so they could only be responsible for their own safety.

If you put your life in the government, I am afraid that when the government arrives, the daylily will be cold.

Therefore, domestic servants and domestic slaves were still very popular in ancient times.

Because Rongguo Mansion is a martial arts family, coupled with a big family, it raises thirty family members at home, and these family members also occupy a quota in the three major camps in the capital, and their money is distributed by the imperial court, but in order to let these family members contribute, Rong Guofu will also give these family members subsidies during the New Year's Festival.

Old Taijun Shi frowned and said, "Let you arrange it, where did you get so many words!" Can there be chaos outside the capital? Baoyu is the hope of my Jia family, and you people together are not as good as half of my Baoyu's hair.

If he has any injuries, don't say twenty family members, even thirty family members, and he must also be buried with my Baoyu. ”

Seeing that the atmosphere in the house was a little tense, the mandarin duck hurriedly said: "Where did the ancestor say, Baoyu is a person with great luck, plus the old lady's protection, he will definitely be in trouble, turn evil into good fortune, pardon the old man, and the old lady is also worried about the safety of the second master."

Even if anyone goes out of the city, the ancestors have to arrange for the family to follow. ”

Taking advantage of the steps given by the mandarin duck, Jia Yu hurriedly went out to arrange for the next person.

Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang glanced at each other, and Jia Zheng said, "Baoyu, do you have to go to this village?" Today is the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, just out of the New Year's Festival, you are in a hurry to go out of the city, and in two months it will be the college exam, you don't study your homework at home, what do you do outside the city? ”

Jia Baoyu said in his heart, what I want to do, I'm afraid no one will believe it if I say it.

Everything he is doing now is nothing more than to have more hole cards when he escapes in the future.

Mrs. Wang frowned and said, "That's it, there is chaos outside, it's better to stay in the house, even if you don't study, you can play with your sisters and sisters." ”

There is no one who is not worried about her son, as the so-called mother of a thousand miles away, and Mrs. Wang does not have the anxiety of those chicken parents and mothers in later generations, anyway, even if they don't take the imperial examination, their family will not worry about food and clothing, and the inheritance left by the ancestors is enough for Jia Baoyu to squander.

As for the next generation, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren.
