In the gatehouse, Jia Qiang sat in the gatehouse on this day and waited for Mrs. Wang's orders. Mrs. Wang thought clearly, this matter of picking up the Lai family always had to be watched by her family.

However, Jia Yu was paralyzed, and Jia Lian was greedy for flowers and lust every day since he inherited his heir, and rarely took care of general affairs. It was this matter that Jia Lian gave the leader's order, and Mrs. Wang didn't want the big house to be contaminated.

Because he was thinking about it, he brought Jia Qiang over a few days earlier.

First, Jia Qiang was originally a decent great-grandson of Ningfu, although she was sent out by Jia Zhen to live alone in a hospital, but with Ningfu's help, she lived a good life. As soon as the Ning Mansion fell, Jia Qiang's life deteriorated, how could she not hate the Lai family in her heart?

Second, Jia Qiang acted safely, but now that he has no relatives to take care of him, he only needs to share a few benefits, and he will help himself.

Mrs. Wang called Jia Qiang a few days earlier, and Jia Qiang was really grateful to Dade. Early this morning, a small servant came to look for him, and only said that he would invite the second master to listen to the errand at home.

Jia Qiang drank two teas at this time, and was a little apprehensive in her heart, this time was just Mrs. Wang after she re-housekew, and explained a few purchasing matters. But seeing that dozens of servants with guns and sticks gathered outside the Yimen, Jia Qiang also knew that things were not good, and secretly wondered if he was looking for a noble family to put it right?

While thinking about it, a small servant suddenly came to look for him and said: "Second Master Qiang, Mrs. has commanded, the Lai family is greedy and sinful, and the wife asks Second Master Qiang to lead the little ones to pick up the Lai family!" ”

"Huh?" Jia Qiang frowned slightly, then Huo Ran got up and said fiercely: "You say it again!" ”

The little guy said it again, Jia Qiang let out a long breath, and the resentment in his heart suddenly turned into a pride and puffed up his chest, secretly thinking, 'It's time for Lai's family to fall', and then he walked out, waved at the stewards of several leaders, and shouted: "Go!" ”

At that moment, the second master led the hundred and ten servants to pour out from the corner gate, and the people on the road avoided it from a distance, and those who did good things quietly stayed behind him to observe carefully.

Lai's house is not far from Rongguo Mansion, and it didn't take long for Jia Qiang to lead people to the place.

Seeing the high walls and deep courtyard, Jia Qiang was even more annoyed. He, the decent great-grandson of Ningfu, only lived in a small courtyard, but a domestic slave like the Lai family lived in a large mansion three times, and there was a garden behind him, how could this be embarrassing?

There was a man who stepped forward to ask tremblingly, and before he could speak, he was kicked to the ground by Jia Qiang, and then waved his hand: "Give the master a hit!" ”

A group of slaves shouted and agreed, brandished sticks and rushed in from the corner gate, and hit people in front of them, only for a moment, when Na Jia Qiangmai stepped into the corner door, he raised his eyes and saw seven or eight Lai family slaves lying in the corner door.

Some slaves have already reported to the inner house, and a few mothers-in-law have sealed the door of the ceremony, no matter how the slaves of the Jia family come to bump, they will not open it.

There was no need for Jia Qiang to order, there were already slaves who stepped on people and climbed over the wall, so frightened that the maids and mothers-in-law scattered with screams, and opened the door in an instant, and Jia Qiang immediately led a group of slaves to rush in.

Suddenly, there were thirty white-faced men trembling and coming out, and shouted with a vague finger: "The blue sky and the day break the door of the house, aren't you afraid of the king's law?" ”

Jia Qiang squinted and scanned, and Mrs. Wang's companion Zheng Hua came over and said, "Second Master Qiang, this person is Lai Shangrong, the grandson of Mama Lai, and now he is just a prisoner. After a pause, he said: "But this person has been out of citizenship early in the morning, which is not easy to deal with." ”

Jia Qiang sneered from her heart: "A slave is a slave, isn't it if you get out of your nationality?" This guy looks like a forgetful one, and let him remember it for a long time! ”

Zheng Hua promised, and when he waved his hand, two small guys rushed forward, one raised his foot and kicked Lai Shangrong to the ground, and the other pressed half of Lai Shangrong's body, and crackled left and right to pull it into a pig's head.

Jia Qiang's depressed anger gradually disappeared, and she felt that she was arrogant in her heart, and she ignored Lai Shangrong, and walked in with the hands of others.

After entering the inner house and slightly scanning the furnishings of the main house, Jia Qiang suddenly became angry. Walking in front of a painting, Jia Qiang said: "This plum blossom banana leaf picture is not a thing of Ningfu?" How did you get to his house? ”

Zheng Hua, who followed on the side, said: "What else, it must be that I stole the master's belongings in private." ”

Then go to the back garden, and see that although the garden is not as good as the Grand View Garden, it is also very neat and wide, with springs and stones, pavilions and pavilions, and there are several amazing and terrifying places.

Jia Qiang was dumbfounded, and said: "The Lai family is not dead, and heaven is intolerable!" ”

Pity him, a decent great-grandson of Ningfu, who is still living in a small courtyard in the back street, but this slave is dressed in a beautiful house, where can he be reasonable?

At that moment, Jia Qiang walked around, and when she returned to the main house, the accompanying Xue family's account office came to report: "Second Master Qiang, the treasury is clear, there are 10,000 gold, silver and silver tickets, and there are thirteen shops in the outer city, and 800 acres of land outside the city." ”

"Good, good!" Jia Qiang laughed angrily.

Seeing that the account room wanted to stop talking, Jia Qiang said, "But it's not appropriate? ”

The bookkeeper said: "I'm afraid there are still some discrepancies, and now these can't be counted even if they are counted in the mansion." ”

Jia Qiang just wanted to be happy and pick up the Lai family from the bottom to the bottom, where did she care if it was right or not? Because it is so, he said: "Scatter people to search around, and there must be a place to hide treasures such as secret rooms and secret pavilions." ”

Zheng Hua was suddenly agitated and hurriedly ordered to go down. He came with him, waiting for Jia Qiang's words. The reason why the 100th Jia Jiahao slave has high morale is that he is waiting to pick it up?

Now that Jia Qiang has ordered it, all the people are excited, or smash it around, or coerce the servants in the house, and even force the dignified maid to do that kind thing.

For a while, Lai's house was crying and roaring, chickens and dogs jumping. Although Jia Qiang has never seen it, she can hear the sound and know that it is not good, this person has a smooth nature, how can he bear such infamy?

Immediately called Zheng Hua and instructed: "Mrs. is still waiting, I have to go and talk back to Mrs., and I will leave it to you for the time being...... Don't let the next person make too much trouble. ”

Zheng Hua was even happier in his heart, and arched his hand and said: "Second master, don't worry, if you have a small person to take care of it, you will definitely not have a life lawsuit." ”

At this point, Jia Qiang was too lazy to take care of it, and immediately found a dozen reluctant little guys, carrying the goods, and returning to Rongguo Mansion with a few Xue family account offices.

But he said that there was nothing to do in the yamen that day, Li Weijian returned early, and when he arrived at the door of the house, he saw Jia Qiang leading people to carry goods from afar.

Li Weijian was not in a hurry to enter the house, stood next to the carriage, and waited for Jia Qiang to get close before he asked with a smile: "Brother Qiang, where did you get rich?" ”

Jia Qiang was worried when she saw Li Weijian. Earlier, with Jia Rong provoking Li Weijian, he turned his head and was beaten up; Later, Lai Shangwen stole the pattern, and the Ning Mansion was uprooted.

Jia Qiang has a lot of thoughts, although there is no empirical evidence, she can believe that the matter of Ningfu is inseparable from Li Weijian. Because he was stubborn, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Fourth Uncle Jian, my nephew was instructed by his wife, and this time he went to Lai's house to pick it up." ”

In the blink of an eye, this one lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to his eyes, and he no longer had the air of a husband.

Li Weijian was surprised and said: "Pick up Lai's family? Also, such slaves who rebel against their masters should have been punished long ago. You go talk to your wife first, and I'll go and see in a moment." ”

Jia Qiang was pardoned, bowed again, and hurriedly led the people away.

Li Weijian entered the inside, changed into a regular clothes, turned his head and entered the Grand View Garden from Huifangyuan. After passing the Qingtang hut, I arrived at the Deqin Fangzha Bridge, and I heard the sound of falling water from the north. Li Weijian stopped and turned his head to look, and saw two people standing in the Concave Jingxi Pavilion opposite, but it was Sister Bao and her maid Ying'er.

Baochai in the carriage over there caught a glimpse of Li Weijian, and hurriedly bent over to give a blessing, Li Weijian smiled and bowed slightly, thought about it, got off the bridge and turned his head and ran towards the Cave Jingxi Pavilion.

That Baochai didn't stay, and went straight to the south, and the two met in front of the Pavilion.

Sister Bao said quietly: "Fourth Brother Jian hasn't been here for some days. ”

Li Weijian said with a smile: "Family affairs and state affairs are just now free." Hearing that Sister Xue was slandered by that gossip a few days ago, Qiu Fang and Baoqin were very angry, and carefully searched the house, although they had never taken that many mouths, but they also drove out the two mothers-in-law with unclean hands and feet. ”

When Baochai heard this, he said: "Fourth brother Jian is rigorous, and he expects that the family style is the same. And Sister Fu has always been thoughtful, and she will not allow the tongue-chewing person to stay at home for long. ”

Li Weijian nodded, raised his hand to invite, and the two went to Qinfang Pavilion. Li Weijian said: "I just came back and saw Brother Qiang leading people back violently, and after asking, I realized that it was a raid on Lai's family." Sure enough, the wife has to be in charge, and the second sister-in-law doesn't dare to make such a move when she is in charge. ”

Baochai only said: "My aunt took the idea, but I didn't hear much of the wind before. Fourth Brother Thrifty is just here for this? ”

Li Weijian said: "I haven't looked at the old lady for a while, but I'm afraid that the old lady will complain a few days later." After a pause, Li Weijian said again: "It's been frosty in the morning and evening these days, why did my sister come to visit the garden here?" ”

Without waiting for Sister Bao to speak, Ying'er behind her said: "The girl was a little bored and came out for a walk, not wanting to see Second Master Bao going to the Licui Nunnery." The fourth master just came over, have you ever seen the second master Bao? ”

"Not really," Li Weijian said happily, "Baoyu can enter the garden again?" Then the academy is not going? ”

Sister Bao glanced at Ying'er, Ying'er suddenly didn't dare to speak, and then Baochai said: "From the homeland, where can I stop Brother Bao from coming in?" It's just that the aunt has set up a rule that doesn't allow the Bao brothers to find the sisters to mess around. ”

How Baoyu is, how the Jia family is, Li Weijian doesn't care now. It's just that I secretly thought in my heart, since Sister Lin made a love affair with herself, Xiangyun made a small appointment again, and the two girls naturally alienated Baoyu. I don't know when Baoyu and that Miaoyu looked at each other......

I think that Sister Yibao's intelligence will also be clear at this time, so I can't say that Miaoyu has been regarded as a first-class opponent at this time?

Li Weijian, who is accustomed to eye medicine, said: "It's okay to enter the garden, but this academy still has to go." Even if you can't read a famous hall, you can make more friends, and it will be of great use if you can't say that you can't come to the future. Brother Bao wants to be a rich idler, you must know that the rich idler is not easy to be, if there is no relatives and friends outside, there is no virtuous woman to take care of the housework, where can you be idle?

I'm afraid I'll be annoyed to death by those trivialities. ”

In other words, Baochai is afraid that he will think so. Now that I have experienced many disturbances, the previous time was almost ruined, and my mood is different from the past.

Hearing this, Sister Bao not only did not agree, but there was a rebellion in her heart, so she glanced at her and said: "Fourth Brother Jian has to say this to my aunt, what is the use of telling me?" ”

Li Weijian smiled and said nothing, some words are not good to be exposed.

Sister Bao knew it, but because she didn't mention Baoyu again, she said, "How many days is the Qin girl?" ”

Li Weijian paced and said, "Sister Qin is smart, and the external accounts will be started in just a few days." Qiu Fang said that she was afraid that she would be able to hand it over to Sister Qin to take care of next month. ”

Sister Bao's heart suddenly became sour, because she said: "It's always inappropriate for the girl's family to show up...... Besides, she is still young, and the fourth brother is better to stay at home and raise the piano girl, read books, do poetry, and gather with the sisters in this garden when she is free. ”

Li Weijian smiled and said: "Just let her be, Sister Xue also knows that my family is not prosperous, and if you can't talk about this outside matter, you will have to worry about Qiu Fang and Baoqin to take care of it." ”

Sister Bao's heart became more and more sour, and she smiled and said: "Fourth Brother Thrifty maintains it like this, which is also the blessing of the Qin girl." ”

saw Li Weijian smile and said: "Going both ways, it's my blessing to say it." ”

Baochai was about to say more, but at this time he had arrived at the gate of the Grand View Garden, Li Weijian said: "I'll go to the old lady to say hello, where is Sister Xue going?" ”

Baochai secretly thought, Aunt Mrs. Wang just copied the Lai family, although she had the old lady's acquiescence before, it can be said that this Rongqingtang is the Longtan Tiger's Den, why should she bother herself? Because he raised his hand and pointed to the small door on the side, he said: "I'll go to my mother to talk about it, and the fourth brother will be free." ”

Li Weijian bowed his head, said goodbye to Baochai, and walked towards Rongqing Hall.

But it is said that in the Rongqing Hall, it can be described as sabre-rattling. Mrs. Wang just reported to Jia's mother, and Jia's mother couldn't bear it, so she said to Mrs. Wang: "In the end, you have served our family for several lifetimes, no matter what it is, you must always leave a point of dignity." ”

Mrs. Wang was about to reply, but the mandarin duck hurriedly replied: "Old lady, the eldest lady is pushing the eldest master!" ”

"Huh?"

Jia Mu was shocked! Since beating Jia Yu and suffering from a stroke for the second time, Jia's mother has only visited her two or three times, and the rest of the situation is out of sight. I thought that the white-haired person would send the black-haired person to the black-haired person when we saw each other next time, but I didn't expect this time to come!

After a while, I saw Mrs. Xing pushing Jia Yu, who was in a wheelchair, around the screen.

Mother Jia's eyes are bright, where do you know why these two people came here? Because he frowned, he said, "Why are you still here?" If you are not in good health, you don't need to say hello at home. ”

Jia Yu opened his mouth and muttered a bird language, and when he heard Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang looking at each other, Mrs. Xing smiled and said: "The eldest master said that if there is such a big thing in the family, you must come over and take a look to see if you can help." ”

Jia Yu spat again, but even saliva flowed out, and the mother-in-law on the side hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief. Mrs. Xing translated again: "The eldest master said that the wife's handling is not very appropriate, and this slave who picks up and disobeys the master must always be taken care of by his own people." The eldest man is not in good health and can't work, so isn't there still Lian'er in the things outside? Unfortunately, Brother Cong'er is getting older, and now he can be a director, so why can't it be Brother Qiang'er's turn? ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang frowned, Jia Yu collapsed on the bed, Jia Lian disappeared early in the morning, as for Jia Cong...... It's smaller than Baoyu, where do you have to use it?

In her heart, Mrs. Wang opened her mouth and said: "I looked for Lian'er before, but he went out early in the morning, this incident happened in a hurry, I was afraid that the Lai family would get the letter and then ship the wealth out, because I sent Brother Qiang to supervise it." ”

When the old man heard this, he muttered that he would get up, but this time before Jia Yu finished speaking, the mandarin duck talked back and forth, saying, "Old lady, Mama Lai knelt outside the weeping flower door and begged to see you." ”

"It's-"

Before Jia's mother could explain her reasoning, another mother-in-law came to report: "Old lady, wife, Brother Qiang, who ran errands, has led people back, and all the goods have been handed over to Steward Wu and put them in the warehouse." ”

Mrs. Wang's heart suddenly fluttered, and she hurriedly said to Jia's mother: "Old lady, I don't think I should let Brother Qiang talk back first?" ”

Mrs. Xing also said: "Exactly, how is the copying, you have to ask clearly." ”

Mother Jia despised Mrs. Xing in her heart, glanced at her, and said, "Okay, then let Brother Qiang talk back first." ”

Jia's mother gave orders, and in a moment, a maid led Jia Qiang into the inside. Na Jia Qiang turned the screen and saluted everyone one by one, and then spoke: "The junior is fortunate not to be dishonored, and a total of 11,000 taels of gold, silver, and silver tickets have been copied, and there are various picture scrolls, antiques and other things, which are estimated to be worth at least 5,000 taels." In addition, the house can be worth 10,000 to say the least. ”

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She never expected the Lai family to spit out all the embezzlement over the years, and it was a blessing to get so much money. However, it is still a little less, and it is not enough to pay off the Xue family's account.

I lost the previous time and forcibly left Baochai behind, otherwise how would I repay the debt to the Xue family?

Jia's mother, who was sitting on the soft couch, had mixed tastes in her heart, and after a little calculation, she had 30,000 taels of silver in the sky. In the early years, when the Jia family was at its peak, the congratulatory gifts received during the New Year's Festival were not less than this number.

is also now that the family can't make ends meet, so they started the idea of being a slave for such a little silver. Anyway, this time it is more or less reasonable, then the Lai family is too perverse, the mistake is not so, when it is spread, relatives and old friends may not know how to count the Jia family behind it.

At this time, I suddenly heard the eldest master Jia Yu muttering excitedly, and the saliva was flowing at the moment, which was extremely unusual.

Mrs. Xing guessed, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she said, "That's not right! The eldest lord said that since the Lai family can buy an official with 20,000 silver, how can the floating wealth in the family be only more than 10,000? It must have been hidden by a few minions of the Lai family! ”

As soon as these words came out, it was not said that it was Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang, but the maid in the middle, the mother-in-law looked at Jia Yu and Mrs. Xing with disdain.

Jia Mu didn't say much, so she only turned her head to look at Mrs. Wang and said, "What does Mrs. think?" ”

Mrs. Wang said: "I thought that I should be forgiving and forgiving, but this time I have copied and picked up, and I don't care how much I have copied and picked up, and it is not good to be harsh again." Otherwise, if it spreads, there will be people who slander our family for mistreating the elderly. ”

Mother Jia bowed her head and said: "What Mrs. said is right, no matter what, the Lai family has also served our family for several generations." There is no merit and hard work, and the mistake is not a big mistake, and I really can't bear to be so harsh. As he spoke, he looked at Mrs. Xing again: "The face of the Jia family is always worth more than those silver coins, and the eldest lady should not lose the watermelon and pick up the sesame seeds." ”

Mrs. Xing's face turned red, and she argued: "Old lady, it's not me who said it, it's the eldest master-"

I heard Jia Mu say coldly: "It's not you who are instigating behind your back, the eldest master is sick, how can you come to me to pay attention to such rights and wrongs?" ”

Mrs. Xing was scolded so much that her eyes immediately turned red, and she had to bow her head and say nothing.

At this time, the mandarin duck came in and replied, "Old lady, the fourth master is here." ”

Jia Mu Nahan said: "Brother Jian hasn't been here for a few days, why is this coming?" ”

Mrs. Wang said: "There is a lot of trouble at home, and I want to come to Brother Jian and listen to the rumors, so I came to see it at this time." ”

Mother Jia bowed her head, and after a moment's time, she saw Li Weijian striding across the screen, greeting Mother Jia and the others with a smile, and looking at the old man in the wheelchair. Hey? The wheelchair seemed to have been given to Wang Xifeng before, and I didn't want to be used by Jia Yu now.

Thinking about it in his heart, Li Weijian said, "Why did you still alarm Uncle Shi?" ”

Jia Yu, who had crooked eyes and drooling water, caught a glimpse of Li Weijian, and immediately became excited.

At this time, I heard Mrs. Xing say: "The eldest lord said that if Brother Jian has to go to the East Courtyard in time, the eldest brother has something to discuss with Brother Jian'er." ”

Discuss what? I'm afraid that I will have to discuss the matter of welcoming the spring again. Li Weijian's face did not move, and he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go to the East Courtyard in a while." ”

The mandarin duck moved the chair, and after Li Weijian sat down, he said: "I just bumped into Brother Qiang, and I heard that the house found out about the corruption of the Lai family, so I ordered Brother Qiang to go over and pick it up?" I don't know what happened to the copying? ”

Jia Mu sighed and said: "But the floating wealth is more than 10,000, counting the shops, mansions, and fields, it can be more than 30,000 yuan." ”

Li Weijian pretended to be stunned, and then wondered: "This is interesting." ”

Jia Mu hurriedly asked, "What's interesting?" Brother Jian might as well say it explicitly. ”

I saw Li Weijian and said with a smile: "I happened to bump into Qiao Langzhong in the Inner Mansion early this morning, and after gossiping, I mentioned that Lai Mama asked someone to bring the words, and this time she raised the price again, and she was willing to pay 30,000 cash for Lai Shangrong to find an errand for the head of the Inner Mansion." ”

Mother Jia was shocked, and Mrs. Wang on the side frowned and asked, "Brother Jian'er is afraid that he has listened to the errand?" Neifu Langzhong is just a positive six products, how can it be worth so much money? ”

Li Weijian said: "Mrs. doesn't know, what the Lai family looks at is not an ordinary inner mansion." A few years ago, the younger generation went south to Guangzhou to establish the sugar business, and Yun Ge'er also got an official position. ”

Mrs. Wang and Mother Jia bowed their heads together, and Mother Jia smiled and said, "Brother Yun has also been to the house once, I have seen it, and I don't want to have such a promising child in the family." Brother Jian'er, you are more and more able to do it now, and the old lady doesn't ask for anything else, she just asks Brother Jian'er to sweep it, if any child in the family can use it, you have to carry it more. ”

Li Weijian said with a smile: "The old lady has said this, I am now lacking manpower, and I have relatives, if I have to use it, the younger generation will definitely use it." ”

Mother Jia smiled and sighed, the implication is that there are very few children in the Jia family, and there is a Jia Yun who is an outlier.

I heard Li Weijian then say: "Having said that, now that Guangzhou cane sugar business is becoming more and more common, last month there was a report submitted to the prince's desk, saying that this year's interest rate will be doubled, and the silver money will be more than one million?" ”

"Huh?"

Mother Jia was surprised, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked, "Could it be—"

"That's right," before Mrs. Wang could ask, Li Weijian bowed his head and said: "Because the prince is planning to send a chief to Guangzhou to sit in the town, the Lai family is aiming at the director of Guangzhou sugar business." Don't say it's 30,000, and there are many people who shout out 50,000 taels of silver from the officials who are waiting outside. ”

After a pause, he said: "Now that I think about it, since the Lai family dares to shout 30,000 taels of silver, they must have prepared it early in the morning." Otherwise......"

At this time, the eldest lord suddenly muttered again, and Mrs. Xing hurriedly said: "The eldest lord said that Brother Jian is right, otherwise if Qiao Langzhong really responds, where will the Lai family be in a hurry to sell their business?" After a pause, he said: "The old lady looks at the service of the Lai family for several generations, and it is not easy to pity the Lai family, but I don't know that the Lai family is now more generous than our family." ”

At this time, I heard Jia Qiang say: "Yes, then Lai Shangrong got out of his nationality early in the morning, but I am afraid that the greedy goods will be placed in his name...... It's not easy to deal with. ”

At this time, I heard Li Weijian say leisurely: "What's so difficult about this? Lai Shangrong can't move, and the bookkeepers, stewards, maids, and servants around him can't move? Even the deeds of Lai Da and Lai Mama are in the house, and those maids and maids should also be in charge of the house. ”

The eldest lord became excited again, spitting and spitting. Mrs. Xing also said happily: "The eldest master is right when he says Brother Jian'er!" ”

Jia Mu was embarrassed for a while, and sighed: "That's it, the wife will just look at this matter and deal with it." It's just the same, after serving our family for a few lifetimes, we always have to leave some dignity. ”

Mrs. Wang said: "After the encroachment is cleared, just send Lai Mama and Lai Da's family to Liaodong Zhuangzi for the elderly." ”

Mother Jia responded and instructed the mandarin duck: "Mandarin duck, you go and tell Mama Lai, just say that I don't want to see her now, let her reflect on herself." ”

After the mandarin duck responded, Jia's mother said to Li Weijian again: "This kind of thing happened at home, and I am so tired now, I won't entertain Brother Jian'er." ”

Li Weijian hurriedly said: "The old lady is resting, I come and go every three or five times, but I can't be regarded as a guest." ”

At that moment, the maid helped Jia's mother to go to the warm pavilion, and everyone in the Rongqing Hall got up one after another, and Mrs. Wang looked a lot kinder, smiled and greeted Li Weijian, and then went out to deal with the affairs of the Lai family.

At that moment, Mrs. Xing leaned over and sneered: "Brother Jian'er—"

Li Weijian said: "It's just right, why don't I go to the East Courtyard with my aunt?" ”

"Good, good."

Mrs. Xing responded, and she didn't need to do anything, so a mother-in-law pushed Jia out of Rongqing Hall. The group passed through the Hanging Flower Gate, but they no longer saw Mama Lai, who was kneeling and crying and begging, and it was expected that Mrs. Wang must have dealt with it.

Li Weijian ironed in his heart, the so-called snake fighting does not die, and the future troubles are endless. Because of Lai Shangwen's incident, all the two rooms and one family of the Lai family were sold, and the rest of the people dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, every time Lai Da saw Li Weijian, he was also respectful and polite, but people's hearts were separated from their stomachs, who knows if the Lai family had a heart of revenge in private?

Now that a few words have eliminated the possibility of the Lai family's revenge, and they have sold their good children again, why not do it?

After passing through the hall, Li Weijian was going to go to Yimen for a layman. The east courtyard where Jia Yu was located was originally self-contained, although it was in the Rongguo Mansion, when entering and exiting, he had to go through the black oil gate in front of him, but this time Mrs. Xing and the others pushed Jia Yu to the west through the hall.

Seeing Li Weijian's face, Mrs. Xing said: "I thought that it would be inconvenient for the eldest master to enter and exit in the future, so I simply opened a corner door on the side of the main room, which is more convenient." ”

Li Weijian said: "I see. ”

After passing through the hall and going south for a while, he saw that there was a corner door on the wall of the courtyard. Before entering the corner gate, Jia Yu whimpered for a while, and Mrs. Xing called her mother-in-law and instructed: "Go to the front and guard, Lian'er is back and let him come over in a hurry." ”

Picking up Lai's family, a great opportunity to make a fortune is in front of him, and Jia Lian, who is not a good person, went out to mess around again. Now that most of the heads have been swallowed by the second room, Mrs. Xing and Jia Yu are only looking forward to swallowing some soup and water.

Li Weijian knew why these two people were in a hurry, so he didn't say it at the moment, and only followed Mrs. Xing and others into the main room.

After the tea, the eldest lord Jia Yu muttered, and Mrs. Xing sneered: "Brother Jian'er, the road is 'buying and selling is not benevolent and righteous', since the matter between you and Yingchun has not been successful, now Yingchun will be eighteen in the next year, and I am afraid that it will not be a matter if it is delayed any longer." ”

Li Weijian frowned and said, "What does the aunt mean, you might as well say it directly." ”

Mrs. Xing said: "The eldest master has said a few times in the past few days, and he must always find a proper marriage for Yingchun." Brother Jian, I'm afraid I can't wait any longer. ”

Li Weijian's face turned cold, and said: "Marriage matters, the orders of parents, the words of matchmakers, the aunt and the uncle are in charge, so why do you want to ask me?" ”

Mrs. Xing hurriedly made up for it: "Isn't this afraid that Brother Frugal will be too careful?" If Brother Jian can't let it go, he just asks Li Saijiu to agree, and I have nothing to say to the eldest master, beating gongs and drums to send Yingchun to the door. But isn't Li sacrificial wine not to be promised? ”

Li Weijian smiled and said: "I understand, I want to find a proper family in the next life?" But I don't know which door and which household? ”

"This-" Mrs. Xing hurriedly looked at Jia Yu, who said again with crooked eyes. Mrs. Xing said: "It's not an outsider, it's a protégé of the family, and it's a family friend——"

Without waiting for Mrs. Xing to finish speaking, Li Weijian sneered: "Sun Shaozu? I know. As he spoke, he straightened up and said condescendingly: "Since Uncle Shi and his aunt can't wait, it is reasonable to find a mother-in-law for the second sister, but it is difficult to say whether the surnamed Sun dares to marry the second sister." Leave! ”

After saying that, he snorted coldly, got up and brushed his sleeves away.

Mrs. Xing chased two steps, hurriedly sent the maid to send it, turned around and discussed with Jia Yu in a panic: "I just said that this matter is urgent, and now I have offended Brother Jian'er, how can this be good?" ”

But after listening to Jia Yu's words, Mrs. Xing frowned and said: "That surnamed Sun can't afford to provoke Brother Jian'er, I'm afraid that he won't have the face to ask for the five thousand taels of silver again, but now he still owes Brother Jian'er eight thousand taels, how can I say this?" ”

Jia Yu's crooked face showed a strange smile, and she muttered again, and Mrs. Xing's brows stretched, and then she relaxed slightly.

What about two sides and three knives? How does it matter if there is white money?
