Volume B Section 83 The House of Martial Arts
Feng Ziying is the Baiyun Temple that arrived in advance.
Baiyun Temple is indeed magnificent, the wall is Zhao Mengfu wrote "eternal Changchun", the single eaves glazed tile of Lingxing Gate is on the top of the mountain, four pillars and seven layers, it is really a place to go to the first class of the Beijing Division.
Watching the crowds of people outside, you can see at least dozens or hundreds of carriages and sedan chairs of various colors along the side of the road, which should be in the Jingshi City to take advantage of the good weather to burn incense and pray for blessings.
For Confucian literati, it is obviously the main purpose of the outing, and this spring break is twenty days, if you can't take a good rest, it's a pity.
Of course, this is also a social activity, but if you are bringing your family, you will not usually travel with them unless you are a close relative.
Although Jia Lian wants to bring his family here, since Feng Ziying has already mentioned to him that he has other friends, then he will definitely not be with Wang Xifeng and Lin Yatou, it is more likely that they will come together, but they will go their own way, but they will not be too far apart.
For Feng Ziying, this can only be done this step, in this spring break, you said that you want Lin Yatou to go out alone to burn incense and pray for blessings, it is obviously impossible, officially go on a green tour and burn incense to pray for blessings in the peak season, what went wrong? If you want to go, you must also travel with a large family.
So in a hurry, I can only come up with such a solution.
"Ziying!" As soon as Feng Ziying arrived, Han Qi and Wei Ruolan arrived.
Wei Ruolan's carriage is too conspicuous, although she has no heavenly identity, but as the eldest princess's sister-in-law, at least she has to make enough momentum in the carriage.
Han Qi's carriage is very ordinary, his ancestor Jinxiang Marquis is now a third-grade general, the mansion is still the Hou Mansion of the year, it is majestic and magnificent, but in terms of internal sling, I am afraid it is much inferior to the Feng family.
Feng Ziying also stayed in the spring break for 20 years before she learned about some of the family situation one after another.
Before the end of this year, the income from various places came back one after another, Datong and Jingshi City were the big heads, Feng Ziying didn't deliberately ask, but his father, mother and aunt talked to him a little.
Datong has the largest income, close to 40,000 taels of silver, mainly from a few crude medicine shops, gold and silver shops and cloth shops, the income of the Beijing shop and the rented out store is about 30,000 taels, but the Zhuangzi on both sides of the income is not much, but two or three thousand taels of rent, plus some rice, flour, oil, meat and game and other specialties.
Like Linqing, the income is only one or two thousand taels of silver, mainly the income from the rented out store, like the hundreds of acres of land tenant rent, it is not much, and the total of this side is basically supplied to the expansion and transformation of the old house in Linqing, and it is estimated that it will have to add thousands of taels to smooth it out.
Feng Ziying didn't know that she still had two Zhuangzi in Liaodong, but those two Zhuangzi could only send some game back.
For example, two pickled wild boars, more than a dozen deer skins, five or six legs of venison, ten pairs of bear paws, two bear skins, fifty catties of tiger bones, and some ginseng, but they are all authentic goods, and they all go directly into the treasury of the house.
Feng Ziying calculated that the annual income of the Feng Mansion is now about seventy or eighty thousand taels, but as for the expenses in the mansion, he is not very clear, neither his mother nor his aunt told him, he estimated that it was probably between twenty thousand and thirty thousand taels, which still excludes some of the major expenses that are not included in the daily expenses.
For example, the father's recovery this time is estimated to cost 350,000 taels of silver, and for example, the mother is already thinking about starting a family for herself, so if she wants to buy and renovate the two surrounding houses, don't even think about the 70,000 or 80,000 taels of silver.
Feng Ziying really doesn't know how many families there are, but she is afraid that there are two hundred thousand taels.
As this older generation, there are obviously a lot to consider, at least at this point, Feng Ziying feels that the Feng family is much stronger than a family like the Jia family.
For example, Wang Xifeng will open up more channels, use the money in the public to lend, and take over lawsuits, all of which are high-risk and even politically risky businesses.
Of course, it was written in the book "Dream of Red Mansions", at least for now, Feng Ziying still has a good impression of Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng.
Jia Lian's character is not bad, he can do something, Wang Xifeng takes care of Lin Yatou a lot, basically Lin Yatou proposed to Lian's second sister-in-law, Wang Xifeng is satisfied, and Feng Ziying feels that she should help them for this point.
As for how Wang Xifeng is in Jiafu, it has nothing to do with him, and what happens in Jiafu in the future has nothing to do with him.
He is neither Jia Yu Jia Zheng nor Lao Taijun, and it is not his turn to worry about the prosperity and decline of Jiafu.
"Ziqi! Ruolan! Feng Ziying was also very happy, she hadn't seen the two for a long time, and she was indeed still a little nostalgic, and after stepping forward to bow her hand, she was hooked shoulder-to-back and greeted with affection.
"Brother Jun didn't come?" Feng Ziying didn't see Chen Yejun.
Han Qi and Wei Ruolan were a little embarrassed, shook their heads, and Han Qi said: "Brother Yejun has something at home, maybe he will come later, he didn't say dead." ”
"Oh?" Feng Ziying chuckled in her heart, she invited her two days in advance, and she didn't refuse at that time, but at this time, she was uncertain, either there was something wrong, or there were other special reasons, and it seemed that these two people were afraid that they also vaguely knew something.
"If you didn't come, you didn't come, maybe Brother Jun is really busy, what's the matter?" Feng Ziying waved her hand absently, "Wait here, there is a friend." ”
"Oh? Ziying didn't want to introduce us to the talents in your academy, then we can't afford it. Wei Ruolan joked.
The students of Qingtan Academy and those of them who have been mixed up in the country will definitely not be able to get together, there is no common language at all, Feng Ziying is a special case, and other poor students from small families must be difficult to get along with their own group of people.
"Hehe, if Brother Ruolan and Brother Ziqi really have this idea, then of course the younger brother can recommend it on their behalf, Han Jian and Xu Zixun are no problem." Feng Ziying also laughed.
Now Han Jing and Xu Ji, especially Xu Ji, are the most famous scholars in the current Jingshi City, whether it is a high-ranking official or a nobleman, or a scholar or a scholar, they are all willing to meet such a promising talent.
Maybe in a few years, people will be able to occupy a place in the Hanlin Academy and even the Sixth Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and they will not see each other when they look up and look down, but they are young.
"Excuse me, Ziying, they are different from you, they don't have any friendship with us, and they can't afford that friendship." Han Qi was still very self-aware, and waved his hand again and again, "Say, who else?" ”
"Well, Second Brother Rongguo Mansion Lian, Brother Ziqi and Brother Ruolan should know each other, right?" Feng Ziying didn't hide anything.
"Jia Lian?" Han Qi was surprised and glanced at Wei Ruolan.
They are all Wuxun families, how can they not know each other, but they are obviously not very familiar with Jia Lian.
"What? Ziqi knows? Feng Ziying looked over.
"Well, Ziying, how can the people on the Jia family's side say that they don't know each other, and they don't see each other when they look up, but we are more familiar with Brother Zhen and Brother Rong of Ning Guofu." Han Qi said with a smile: "Brother Rong is also in prison, but he often drinks and feasts with us, and his father Brother Zhen is also an interesting person, so let's talk about each other, make our own friends, and often ,...... together."
Feng Ziying didn't expect these two guys to be able to get together with Jia Rong and Jia Zhen, it seems that the friendship is not shallow, and she frowned, she hadn't heard these two talk about it before.
"When did you get together with Brother Rong and Brother Zhen again?" Feng Ziying couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Rong is familiar with us, you don't know, but didn't he get married the year before last? So I didn't come out much at home, but it seems to have started to come out again in the past six months. Wei Ruolan said disapprerovingly: "As for Brother Zhen's side, if you want to say that you can play better than Brother Rong, sometimes Brother Rong has to bring his father with him when he comes out,......
Feng Ziying was dumbfounded, he really didn't know that Jia Zhen and Jia Rong, the two fathers and sons, had such a tacit understanding, but the fathers were happy with their sons, how could they discipline their sons?
Could it be that the gathering of people in the book "Dream of Red Mansions" is still true? Isn't it, isn't this Jia Rong just married? Why did you start dangling again?
"I remember that Brother Rong only married the year before last, right?" Feng Ziying has an impression, then it should be Qin Keqing.
Although he entered Jia's Mansion a few times, he went to Rongguo's Mansion, not Ningguo's Mansion, and had a drink with Jia Lian that time, although he called Jia Rong here, but he only saw Jia Rong, so naturally it was impossible to see Qin Keqing, who was quite mysterious in the book "Dream of Red Mansions".
"Well, the year before last, you haven't come back from Datong yet." Wei Ruolan nodded, "I heard that you often go in and out of Rongguo Mansion, don't you have any friendship with Ning Guofu?" Why don't you call Brother Zhen and Brother Rong out another day and have a drink together? ”
"Brother Zhen and Brother Rong'er also know each other, but I am more familiar with Rongguofu, this second brother Lian is very familiar with the younger brother, and you should also know the second sister-in-law of Lian, right,......"
"How don't you know? Wang Shilang's niece, Jinling's royal family, Wang De and we are quite familiar with us, you should know. Han Qi accosted, "Aren't you also in the Guozi Prison?" It's just that I don't come often. ”
Wang De is the second son of Wang Ziteng, and his eldest son Wang Zhong has also been in the Guozi Prison for two years, and now he is hanging on the side of Long Banwei.
Feng Ziying has been in the Guozijian for half a year, and he has never seen Wang Dejin studying, but he knows that this gentleman of the Wang family seems to have a close relationship with Chen Yejun.
Based on this, it can be seen that the Wang family has no successor, the two sons are not as good as the other, and I don't know how Wang Ziteng's family education is done, so it seems that the Jia family really has a sense of superiority.
