Section 143 Zhong Ping'er (the fifth more asks for a monthly pass!) )

The difficulties of the Rongning Second Mansion were actually evident after the year.

The Grand View Garden almost looted the entire foundation of the Rongning Second Mansion, and the Rongguo Mansion not only borrowed a lot, but also owed a lot of money outside in the construction cost.

For example, Ni Er's side, according to what Ni Er said, the Rongguo Mansion for building the Grand View Garden owed him at least nearly 30,000 taels of silver, which was not a small amount, although Ni Er didn't say that he would go to the door, but it was absolutely impossible to make Ni Er give up.

In addition to Ni Er, Rong Guofu also owed more than 10,000 taels of silver to some other materials and furniture purchased on credit outside, so calculated that at least close to 50,000 taels of silver were owed outside.

The silver owed is not as good as the borrowed silver, and the borrowed silver is generally a trusted family friend and relative, and will not ask for it in a short time, but these arrears are different, you can wait for three or five days, ten days and a half months, but after a month, I am afraid that someone will come to the door.

As the head of the Rongguo Mansion, Wang Xifeng has to take on this responsibility, if it is to ensure that the Rongguo Mansion can continue to operate normally, it will not be an easy task.

The silver in the public has long been spent, and now if you want to continue to maintain it, it is not feasible to borrow money, so you can only pawn and pledge some old things in the family, especially some valuable things in Jia's mother, and you can exchange some silver when you take it out, but no one knows how long this situation can last.

Wang Xifeng, don't come to borrow money from yourself, right? Feng Ziying was also muttering in her heart.

However, if it is a matter of borrowing money, it cannot be so impatient, it should be something else.

But whether Jia Lian wants to divorce his wife or Jia Rui wants to be a demon, Feng Ziying feels a headache.

Jia Lian should have made up his mind to get out of Jia's house.

It's not entirely because of Wang Xifeng's own reasons, in the past half a year, the Haitong Yinzhuang Jingshi has been smoothly operated from preparation, Jia Lian's social coverage has expanded rapidly, and more and more people from all walks of life in Beijing have been contacted, especially when Feng Ziying intends to let go of support, Jia Lian seems to have the feeling of being a social expert in Beijing.

For example, King Zhongshun was originally not very interested in Jia Lian, but after more contact, the relationship between the two became closer; Another example is the Jin merchants, who also call friends with Jia Lian and have a close relationship; There are also some gentry in the north, who also have a lot of contacts with Jia Lian.

This is also the reason why Jia Lian wants to reconcile with Wang Xifeng, he is well-informed, and after taking a break from Wang Xifeng, it should be more suitable to find him.

In addition, Jia Lian more or less still felt some bright and dark breath in the capital, the delicate relationship between the emperor and the emperor plus the prince Yizhong who was still unwilling to be lonely, this is not a secret among well-informed people in Beijing, and the embarrassing situation of the Jia family can even be said to be stepping on a tightrope, and Jia Lian can't help but be a little worried.

This is probably another important reason why Jia Lian made up his mind to cut off relations with Wang Xifeng and then get out of the south and go south to Yangzhou.

Jia Lian hasn't told Feng Ziying about this yet, but with some changes in Yuan Chun's attitude, presumably the entire Jia Mansion will feel something, and Jia Lian still has to come to talk to him after all.

Without her own nod, Feng Ziying estimated that Jia Lian would always find it difficult to make up her mind.

When Feng Ziying set foot in Jia's Mansion again, he did not go directly to the small courtyard where Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian lived, but turned right when he entered the Neiyi Gate, and walked back along Jia Zheng's inner study, that is, the sandwich road on the edge of Mengpo Zhai, and then turned left when he arrived at the courtyard where Aunt Xue's family lived now, and finally arrived at the gate of Daguan Garden.

Although the girls have been moving in for a long time, Feng Ziying has not come to this house since the New Year, so Feng Ziying, where the girls live, has never been to see it.

Only when these girls live in it, can the Grand View Garden be worthy of the word Daguan.

It was Ping'er who came to lead the way.

Seeing that Feng Ziying didn't go to Wang Xifeng's courtyard, but went straight to the Grand View Garden, Ping'er was also anxious but didn't know what to do, "Uncle, grandma is waiting for you in the courtyard." ”

"I know, I haven't been to the house since the New Year, I heard that the girls have moved into the garden, and it's not easy to come and see, so today you can be a guide and take me to see." Feng Ziying glanced at Ping'er and said with a smile: "If you don't look at it again, maybe if you wait a few more days, I won't have much chance to come to the mansion." ”

"Huh?" Ping'er was still complaining in her heart that Feng Ziying was manipulating and deliberately tossing Wang Xifeng, but she didn't expect to wait for such a sentence, she was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Uncle, what do you mean by this?" Why didn't you have a chance to come to the house? ”

Feng Ziying glanced at Ping'er, saw that this girl's handsome face was full of anxiety, and smiled, "When my three-year Jinshi expires, I won't stay in the Hanlin Academy, I plan to go to the next place to take up a post, so I can do something in a down-to-earth manner, Ping'er, what do you think?" ”

Ping'er was stunned by Feng Ziying's words, Uncle Feng is going to leave Beijing to become an official in the local area, and he is no longer in the capital city, how can this be good?

As for Feng Ziying amusing her and asking her what she thinks, Ping'er didn't pay attention at all.

"Uncle, you said that you were leaving Jingshi, so where are you going to be an official?" Ping'er didn't expect Feng Ziying to leave Beijing at all, didn't they all say that he was very useful in the court? Why did you leave Beijing suddenly?

Although I don't understand the high and low truth of being an official, but the simple and simple truth Ping'er still knows, everyone is vying to shout that they want to go back to the capital to be an official, no one takes the initiative to leave Beijing, unless it is a promotion, but with Feng Ziying's ability, I am afraid that even if I am promoted, I can do the same thing in Jingshi City.

"I don't know where to go, then the court has to decide, eat Junlu, share worries for the king, naturally where the court arranges, where will the lord go, maybe Guizhou, maybe Guangxi, maybe Shaanxi, who knows?" Feng Ziying teased Ping'er, "What's the matter, I'm worried about my master?" ”

Ping'er blushed, but deep down she was really a little reluctant.

Although this master is not on the right path with the second grandmother, and there are even some evil deeds that make people despicable, but in all fairness, this master is actually worthy of his own master, and he talks about several things very well, but in the end, he calms things out for his master.

And this master teased himself several times, but Ping'er still felt that this master had a little meaning to himself.

Although it is said that this master is romantic in and outside the house, which man is not stealing in these years? Even Baoyu is not the same as going to attack people, charming people and Qiren and Zifei fox skirts all day long, and they still hide that they can hide it.

It's just that Ping'er also knows that her current identity is unclear, not embarrassing, and it is unlikely that she will have any intertwining with this master, but for a young girl, even if she is just a slave, she also has a longing for a better future.

To say that Ping'er doesn't have a little envy for Qingwen, Jin Chu'er and Xiangling, it is also a lie, especially when this master has obviously shown that he likes him and Second Master Lian is now arguing with his grandmother, how can she not be excited?

"Uncle is so capable, he must know it in his heart, it is difficult to go anywhere, besides, if you want to say worry, there are also people in the master's house who are worried, how can it be the turn of the slave to worry?"

After Ping'er spoke, he found that there seemed to be some indescribable flavor in his words, but the words had been spoken, but he couldn't take them back, so he could only twist his head to the side, not daring to look at Feng Ziying.

Feng Ziying's heart moved, and she subconsciously glanced at Qiao Ping'er, who was standing on the side and turned her face to the side a little uncomfortably, but saw that this girl had pink cheeks and red cheeks, but she was a little shy between her eyebrows, but she inadvertently looked over and saw Feng Ziying staring at her with burning eyes, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly hid to the side.

Of course, Feng Ziying knew that she could only tease this girl in her mouth now, and before the matter on Jia Lian's side was resolved, it would be impossible for Ping'er to break away from Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, so even if she was greedy for each other, Feng Ziying could only endure it.

"I know." Feng Ziying nodded, "Let's go, I'll take a look at the flowers today, and let your grandmother be anxious for a while, so that she won't be thinking about the master in the future, and at this time she will know that she is in a hurry, how could she not think of today when she tossed and calculated the master before?" ”

"Uncle, how did grandma ever calculate grandpa?" Ping'er couldn't help but defend Wang Xifeng, "You also know that grandma is alone in the house to do the whole house, the second master used to care about the affairs of the house, but now he has no heart to take care of the affairs of the house, and the wife also cares about it, up to the ancestors to celebrate the birthday of the old men, down to the trivial things of the people, you have to worry about grandma, and the harvest in the house has been getting worse in recent years, grandma is also worried about this, what is grandma trying to do?" ”

Feng Ziying glanced at Ping'er and said lightly: "Ping'er, be loyal to the Lord and show good character, but you must also seek truth from facts, your grandmother is worried I admit, but a lot of what she worries about is to put silver in her own pocket, not for Rongguofu!" Really, I don't know? The last thing that the master handled, don't you know? ”

Ping'er was stunned, but then retorted unconvinced: "Yes, the slave admits that grandma sometimes gets some money by herself, but the slave thinks it's not wrong, why can the grandmothers and ladies in the house sit back and enjoy it, play every day, chant poems and paint, play chess, but grandma has to keep thinking all day long, worrying about the expenses of the house, what is the result?" Lianzhu's grandmother's monthly routine is twice that of her grandmother, and the ancestor also doubled it for her, but where can Grandma Zhu's expenses be compared with my grandmother? ”
