89. Reform of the Jia family
Jia Min decided to skip this topic that made her heart congested, and started another conversation: "These days, someone really came up and revealed their willingness to get married, their words were sincere and sincere, if it wasn't for your reminder, I really can't see that there are other plans, there are two former friends in it, and now they are also calculating me, it's really ......fickle" She sighed.
Yun Qing thought for a while and said: "I just got the news, someone wants to win over Lord Lin through marriage, it doesn't mean that all the people who want to marry your family have ulterior motives, you are right to be cautious, but there is no need to treat everyone as bad people, after all, Daiyu and Moyu are both good children, and your family's foundation is also very good, and it is very common for someone to look at it." ”
"I don't know this truth, but in today's situation, where can I tell the difference between truth and falsehood? It's better to wait until my lord returns to Beijing, with him to check it, I can be more stable in my heart. Jia Min said, "The children are still young, so they are not in a hurry." ”
It was also said, Yun Qing nodded in agreement, and listened to Jia Min say again: "The twenty-first day of the first lunar month is the birthday of the girl of the Xue family, and her family also held a small banquet for her. I heard that the Xue family is proposing marriage to her, it seems that there is already a family, and now she can't go out except for going to school, so this time she will come at the invitation of Daiyu, I am quite surprised. ”
"She's fourteen, isn't she? It's really the age of the family. Yun Qing said.
This is probably the butterfly effect caused by Xue Sheng still alive. Anyway, there is no Xue Baochai in the original book to talk about the marriage, Yingchun is married, she hasn't moved yet, it's a little too late, and now Xue Sheng is alive and has a relationship with King Xian, so Xue Baochai's market is optimistic, and it is also a good thing to be able to set a safe family affair earlier.
"Yes, at the age of fourteen or fifteen years old, almost everyone is ready to change, but my brother is the same as no one, Yingchun is one year older than Baochai, everyone is talking about kissing, he doesn't care at all, he doesn't care, my sister-in-law doesn't worry about it, the girl's flowering period is only two years, and if you say delay, you will be delayed...... Jia Min sighed.
The last time she went back to her parents' house, she was angry with Jia Yu again, first Jia Yu took a fancy to an ancient fan in the shop, because someone was competing with him to buy it, and the fighting spirit spent 1,500 taels to buy it back, just the shop and the Lin family's shop opposite the door, the shopkeeper in the shop saw it, and saw that it was someone who deliberately gouged the price, that is, to catch a big man like Jia Yu, the shopkeeper reported to Jia Min, Jia Min went to persuade Jia Yu, let him not be so profligate, Jia Yu was deceived of money, and was educated by his sister in person, his face couldn't get up, and he threw his face to Jia Min on the spot. The brother and sister parted unhappily.
Thinking about this now, Jia Min is still a little angry: "Sometimes looking at their uncompetitive appearance, I really want to take care of everything, no one is willing to listen anyway, just let them be happy, but think about the old lady, the family can only see the present, no one has a long-term vision, and she has to make up her mind about everything, she is in her seventies, and she should be raised in other people's homes, and we still have to let her work, I really ...... Alas! ”
Jia Min sighed, she really didn't know what to do with her mother's family, just care, the name is not right, few people are willing to listen, and she offended everyone again; No matter what, there are loopholes everywhere in the house, and the decline of the family is just around the corner, she really can't stand by and watch, she is really in a dilemma.
Thinking about it, she still can't let it go, so she can only compete with herself, her mother's family, and manage it awkwardly, just if she can't understand those white eyes and disgust, she will take this annoying person to the end.
Seeing that she was so troubled, Yun Qing couldn't help but give her an idea: "The rise and fall of the family, how can you decide as a married daughter?" You might as well list all the problems you have found, write down the solutions you can think of, mark the key points that you can't think of, take them back and discuss with your mother, call the people who can speak in the family together, and make it clear to their faces: if they can manage what they are willing to manage, they will take care of it, and if they don't want to take care of it, if you have the ability, negotiate with them to manage it, and everyone will write it clearly and clearly in black and white, and you will have a certificate in your hand, and it will be easy to do things in the future. ”
"Besides, those juniors in your family, I see that they can be used, you add some burdens to them, they may not be able to carry it, on the contrary, if they just blindly protect and spoil, it will be difficult to take on a big responsibility, they should also be trained, if you can win the support of these people, you will not be alone, and they are all members of the Jia family, it is natural to take care of the Jia family, let them rush to the front, and you will suffer less resentment, so isn't it the best of both worlds?"
According to Yunqing's meaning, whether it is Jia Yu or Jia Zheng, since he can't manage his family well and is not willing to pay more attention, then simply don't care about anything, delegate power to young people, and don't point fingers, maybe it's better for the family, I'm afraid that if I can't manage it well, others will feel that it will damage my authority, and if I do it well, he will lead it well, and if I don't do it well, you will be an incompetent person.
In Yunqing's view, Jia Yu and Jia Zheng both have a bit of this tendency, if the Jia family is really Jia Min's family, maybe it will not be defeated, but it is unknown whether it is thriving, but this woman in this world has no right to speak, Jia Min is obviously the smartest and most capable of the three brothers and sisters, and she wants to do something but is constrained everywhere, blinding her good talent.
Jia Min thought about it again and again, and felt that Yunqing's suggestion was very feasible, but in addition, she couldn't think of a better way, she just hoped that she could talk to the old lady and her brothers, so that she could be less tired.
"By the way, a few years ago, courtiers were allowed to borrow money from the treasury, but they lent out a lot, and very few returned it. If so, it's better to pay it back as soon as possible. Yun Qing said suddenly.
To say that this world is worthy of being set in the Kangyong period, the Kangxi Dynasty allowed private individuals to borrow money from the treasury in history, which is obviously very different here, and it is also very surprising that there is such a thing.
Jia Min frowned and thought for a long time, and then said uncertainly: "At that time, I had just gotten married, and I remembered in a trance that my lord seemed to have borrowed it, the amount should not be large, and it would be easy to pay it back, even if no one mentioned it in the Manchu Dynasty, we didn't pay it back, isn't it good?" ”
"The gun shoots the first bird, this number one is really not good." Yun Qing nodded and said, "It was benevolent to allow borrowing money at the beginning, and it was not easy for the emperor to ask for accounts, it depends on when the treasury is short of money, it is not easy to open his mouth at that time, and it is inevitable that someone will come to be this debt collector, but I don't know who this person will be......"
