Chapter Eighty-Six: Good

Feng Tang......

Li Weijian secretly thought in his heart, he had only seen Feng Ziying before, and he didn't want to have anything to do with him.

This Shenwu General is not a title, but a real title. When King Zhongyong conquered Dzungaria, the general Feng Tang was the vanguard officer. The Shun army and the Junggar army fought fiercely in the grassland and Hanhai for a long time, winning and losing each other, and finally had to retreat because the grain and grass could not keep up.

At that time, the general Feng Tang was in charge of the break, after seven battles, he was hit by three arrows in his body, and more than half of his department was damaged, which protected the army and retreated. Because Feng Tang was awarded the title of General Shenwu after the war.

It's just that the Feng family and the Jia family are deeply involved, Feng Tang can fight, but he has no political acumen, and since then, he has been in constant contact with the Jia family, and the sage has scruples in his heart, so he placed this person in the Fifth Army Headquarters and was idle.

Li Weijian pondered for a while and asked, "How could General Shenwu sell the other courtyard?" Who is it that comes forward? ”

Jia Yun said: "I don't know this, it was the housekeeper who came forward, and the nephew didn't listen to it." ”

"That's it, you have to go to Xiangshan today to see how the courtyard is, and come back and tell me. By the way, I have a house here that needs to be transferred as soon as I enter the house, so if I have to do it now, I will do it along the way. ”

Jia Yun received the order, and then rode away with Ding Rufeng.

Wu Zhonghui rode a horse but had no horse, so he had to squeeze on a horse with Ding Rusong, Wu Haiping drove, and the group headed towards the firearms test range of the Ministry of Industry outside the city.

I didn't go for half a month, Li Weijian always had to go over to take a look, and I don't know if those Qin Tianjian masters were done.

When I arrived at the place, I asked the little official and found out that the test firing of the firearm had now completely stopped. The Qin Tianjian is the Qingshui Yamen, and those who have the ability can still make some money by reading the yellow calendar and feng shui, and those who don't have the ability can only live by that little money.

In addition, Bing Jing and Tan Jing are pitiful, so these great masters of Qin Tianjian can only borrow money to live. This time to clean up the arrears, Qin Tianjian has become the hardest hit area. Now that Qin Tianjian is busy with arrears, where do they still have the heart to help the Ministry of Engineering test artillery?

Li Weijian couldn't cry or laugh, and asked the little official if the Ministry of Industry had given a deadline.

The little official said with a bitter face: "I gave it, Da Sikong has set a plan to submit the range table before the end of May." Li Gongzi, this Qin Tianjian can't be counted on, and the little one looks at you writing and painting...... But what do you get? ”

The rafters in the early days rot first, and Li Weijian is enough to show his face in the two things of water affairs and new-style firecrackers, he is just at this age, if he makes great contributions, he will attract the envy of others. It was a day that he could drag it out, and he said, "If you have a little gain, you have to go back and think about it again." ”

The little official didn't expect Li Weijian to be famous, but he sighed again and again and said no more.

After that, it was calm for two days. Jia Yun walked to Xiangshan, and when she came back, she brought the atlas of the courtyard. The garden is vast, named Yuyuan, adjacent to Jingcui Lake, covers an area of more than 10 acres, four vertical and three horizontal, there are streams running through, there are pavilions and pavilions, the price is 60,000 taels.

Li Weijian looked at the album carefully and was quite satisfied. At this time, I heard Jia Yun say: "Fourth uncle, my nephew has listened to it today, and the housekeeper has leaked his mouth." It is said that the general looked at the water company's shares and his eyes were hot, and the money was not used for a while, thinking that the courtyard would not live for one or twenty days every year, and the cost of taking care of it was quite high, so he sold it. ”

Feng Tang wants to buy shares of the water company? Li Weijian smiled secretly in his heart, at this time, a share of about one or two and one dollars and five is a high position, I am afraid that this general will take over in a high position, and he will have to lose a lot of money when he turns his head.

Li Weijian smiled and said: "Yes, it's done well, I'll take a look if I have time, if it's okay, I'll settle down." ”

Jia Yun responded, and then said: "My nephew transferred the house that entered the house, this is the deed." He handed over the deed, and then said: "Today, I heard the little official of Shuntianfu say that Fan Chengbo's house is going to be sold. This house has two roads and three entrances, and the only fly in the ointment is that there is no garden. ”

Li Weijian accepted the deed and looked up at Jia Yun. I heard the latter say again: "But on one side of the house is Zhangjiakeng, and now the pit does not come out of the loess, so why don't the fourth uncle buy it together and transform it into a garden." If you calculate the cost of throwing about 10,000 taels, it will be almost the same. ”

"Zhangjiakeng?"

Li Weijian interrogated carefully, and then learned how Zhangjiakeng came from. In the former Ming Dynasty, Jingshi began to burn coal, and this whole piece of coal was burned, and the remaining coal foam could not be wasted. I don't know who created it, and the loess mixed with coal foam is shaken into briquettes, which is much more economical than a large piece of coal.

Because this loess has become a livelihood, there are large and small pits all around the Beijing Division, which are dug out of the loess.

Fan Chengbo's house is in a half-section alley, only two streets away from Rongguofu, not too far. On it is Zhangjiakeng, covering an extremely vast area, Jia Yun said that there are more than three zhang of digging ground, the loess is excavated, and the stone bed is exposed below. This Zhangjiakeng is about a triangle, and the longest side is next to the Jinshui River.

If you build a garden, you can draw water from the Jinshui River.

Li Weijian couldn't help but be moved, he didn't want the garden to cultivate his sentiments, but when he saw that Zhangjiakeng was so vast, he suddenly moved his mind.

agreed with Jia Yun to take a look at it in the coming day, and then sent him home.

On this day, Xiuying got up early in the morning and kept her face tight, as if she had lost two pieces of money. Li Weijian asked twice, but Xiu Ying just kept silent. In the evening, when he saw that it was Qingwen who was on duty at night, Li Weijian asked, "Isn't it Xiuying's turn today?" ”

Qingwen couldn't help but smile and said, "She has been catching up with the small day in the past two days, and she has discussed changing it with me." ”

Li Weijian couldn't help but laugh dumbly. Xiu Ying has been by Li Weijian's side since Jinling, she is a simple person, everything is written on her face, not only Li Weijian, but Xiangling can see Xiu Ying's intentions.

On that day, a few maids gathered in one place to look at the brochure, others may just be shy, but this girl is shy but eager to try. It's not a coincidence, when it comes to her night duty, she catches up with the sunflower again, and the next rotation will take more than ten days - because the frustration in Xiuying's heart can be imagined.

Li Weijian and Qingwen talked and laughed for a while, and then fell asleep when the night was dark. The next day is the fourth day of April, and this day is the birth of the spring.

Other people's congratulatory gifts still have to be considered, but the congratulatory gifts of cherishing spring are so confusing. Early in the morning, Li Weijian first went to the Inner Mansion Office and spent dozens of taels of silver to buy a string of Buddhist beads.

The so-called Buddha beads are made of zinc and lead cast into the shape of a Buddha, and then thrown into shellfish for cultivation, and there is a probability of growing pearls containing this thing. This string of Buddha beads is uniform in size and texture, and the inside is an ordinary Maitreya Buddha. I think I'm very happy to come to cherish the spring, right?

Leaving the office, Li Weijian and Jia Yun went to Fanchengbo's mansion to take a look, there was nothing to say about the mansion, two roads and three entrances, but the Zhangjiakeng at the back was not easy to say.

Li Weijian carefully observed, there are more than three zhang of digging in this place, and the backfill is afraid that it is a big project, and the backfill alone will cost a lot of money, which is really not cost-effective. So he instructed Jia Yun to continue to discuss with General Na Fengen's mansion.

When she returned to Derongguo Mansion in the next morning, sure enough, Mother Jia sent a maid to invite Li Weijian to celebrate the little girl's birthday.

The female ancestors told stories and the opera troupe sang operas, these were not mentioned, but Li Weijian's congratulatory gifts caused a lot of surprise in the spring. She had a cold face and a cold heart, but she couldn't help but be curious in her heart, so she sent the maid into the painting to ask Li Weijian what he meant by sending Buddha beads.

Li Weijian only said: "It's just an auspicious consummation, but I didn't think about it." The eighteen sons are not in line with the four girls' hearts? ”

When she entered the painting, she smiled and said: "The girl is very happy, and it is precisely because of her heart that I asked the fourth master to ask the fourth master." ”

Li Weijian smiled and bowed his head, and turned around to reply to Xichun when he saw the painting. Today is still Jia Lian as a companion, unlike in the past, this second brother Lian was able to endure the temperament to sit with Li Weijian for a long time, until the old lady was sleepy and went back to the front yard, and never left.

Li Weijian wondered in his heart, and he didn't know what this Jia Lian said.

"Come, Brother Jian, let's have another drink."

Li Weijian held a glass with him, drank all the wine in the cup, and said with a smile: "Second Brother Lian, is there something wrong?" Our own relatives, if you have something to say, you might as well say it clearly. ”

Jia Lian's peach blossom eyes were full of smiles and said, "I don't know if I can't hide it from Brother Frugal, then I'll say it." Brother Jian, now that the stock has fallen to one or two, I don't know if I can get it? ”

Jia Lian wants to buy shares? Li Weijian looked suspiciously at the past, and Jia Lian lowered his voice and said: "Brother Jian also knows that it is not easy for your sister-in-law to manage the family. ”

Jia Lian asked on behalf of Wang Xifeng? Li Weijian smiled on his face, but he was a little suspicious in his heart. The stock goes up and down, where do ordinary people know when to buy and when to sell? And Wang Xifeng's housekeeper, the lack of money is also the lack of Rongguo Mansion, it is said that he came to ask for help, and he also asked the old lady to come to the item, how could he not just let Jia Lian talk about it, right?

I'm afraid that behind this is indispensable to the big man Jia Yu!

is worried that there is no chance to retaliate, where is Li Weijian willing to let go? Because he said earnestly: "Second Brother Lian, I also have a solid relationship with you, and there is no such thing as making a profit or losing money in this world." The shares of the water company have just spread out, and the ups and downs are common. ”

Jia Lian said with a smile: "Others don't know the inner doorway, but the water company was promoted by Brother Jian, how can Brother Jian not know?" Please also ask the thrifty brothers to give me advice. ”

Li Weijian groaned and pinched for a while, and then lowered his voice and said, "Only this once, not for example." If I have spare money, I might as well buy and wait for a while, and I can't say that there will be good news in the future. ”

Jia Lian was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly got up to pour a full glass of wine for Li Weijian, picked up the wine glass and said: "Brother Jian's sentence is enough, come on, come on, I salute Brother Jian!" ”

After getting the quasi-letter, Jia Lian couldn't help but be happy, and went straight to the end of the scene, and then gave Li Weijian a gift.

Li Weijian came out of Jia's mother's house, and after a little bit of speculation, he waited for the eldest sister Li Kun, who led Su Yun and Biyue.

Raising his eyes and looking at it, perhaps because of these days of going back and forth, Li Kun's complexion was much stronger than in the past. Li Kun caught a glimpse of him, greeted him and chased after him with a smile.

The two walked side by side, with a maid carrying a lantern in front of them, and the rest of the maids were far behind.

Li Weijian said with a smile: "Big sister is still happy these days? ”

"It's all okay," Li Kun thought of Li Mengqing, and couldn't help laughing: "It's that the county lord is familiar with me, and I've been a lot naughty recently." ”

I didn't see the county master early this morning, and it took a long time for me to come with a disgraced face, but I missed the swing for a while, and the whole person flew out, and my head was covered with mud.

After getting along for a long time, Li Kun could always sense the meaning of admiration from the county lord's eyes, and quietly inquired, only to know that the county lord had just given birth to his mother and passed away. Because of the county lord, he was much more kind.

Thinking of this festival, Li Kun couldn't help but think of the cherished spring of today's birthday celebration.

After talking about the county lord a few times, she turned to say: "Speaking of which, the county lord is still loved by the loyal and brave king, but he cherishes the spring and has always been helpless." ”

Li Weijian asked, and Li Kun told him eloquently. Xichun is the daughter of the long house of Ningguo Mansion, and her background is more authentic than Yuanchun who entered the palace, but because her mother died in childbirth, her father Jia Jing gave it a cold face. Later, Jia Jing avoided the Taoist temple, and Jia's mother thought that Xichun's brother and sister-in-law were not easy to take care of, so she was taken to her side to raise.

Xu has suffered from cold eyes since he was a child, and Xichun has developed a cold-mouthed and cold-hearted temperament, and the relationship between Su Ri and his brothers and sisters is just ordinary, but he is familiar with the wisdom of the Shuiyue Nunnery.

After saying that cherishing spring, Li Kun sighed and said: "The fourth girl is afraid that her heart is cold, and I don't know who can cover the heat." ”

Li Weijian didn't say anything, he recently opened meat, and he relied on the mentality of two lives to maintain it, so he didn't delay women. What does Xichun's temperament have to do with him? There are many good girls in this world, and Xichun is not his eldest sister Li Kun, who has a kind relationship with him, and he Li Weijian doesn't have the kung fu to warm Xichun's cold heart.

The two sisters and brothers walked slowly all the way, gossiping for a long time, and then they parted when they arrived at Li Kun's residence.

said that Jia Lian sent Li Weijian away and returned to his small courtyard in a hurry.

The eldest man also seemed to lean on the kang and teased Sister Qiao for a long time. Maybe because he drank too much wine, he looked at the appearance of just an ordinary maid and good sister, and suddenly felt that his eyebrows were clear.

Taking advantage of the fact that Grandma was taking care of Sister Qiao'er, Jia Lian reached out and grabbed Sister Shan's hand, and laughed in a low voice: "How old are you?" ”

Sister Shan trembled, and after two strokes, she couldn't pull it back, so she had to let Jia Lian hold her hands and stumble: "Ten ...... Twelve, Second Master Lian, Second Grandma will turn around in a moment. ”

"What do you want her to do? I'm talking to you. ”

As soon as Jia Lian's words fell, he heard Wang Xifeng's voice outside: "What are you talking about?" ”

The ring was tinkling, the curtain was opened, and Wang Xifeng, who was like a fairy concubine, entered the inner room, glanced at it, and saw that the good sister was red and red-eared, and knew that it must be Jia Lian who was not in the form.

Because it was a pair of phoenix eyes, he said, "Yo, the second master is taking advantage of my absence to plan to accept people in the room?" ”

Jia Lian's drunkenness suddenly faded most, and he got up and smiled: "What did Hun say?" I'm just asking Sister Shan, how Su Ri takes care of Sister Qiao'er. ”

Where is Wang Xifeng willing to believe? Snorted coldly and said: "This is strange, I didn't see the second master ask for a long time, why did I ask when I was not there?" ”

Jia Lian came over with a smile and hugged Wang Xifeng's shoulders: "Don't talk about it, it's a good thing today." ”

"A good thing?"
