In the bright and cold Rongxi Hall, the figures of Jia Zheng, Jia Yu, Jia Huan, Jia Lian, and Jia Rong sitting on two rows of Nanmu chairs fell to the ground in the morning sun. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The old god of Jia Huan picked up the white Junyao teacup on the dark red high table in his hand, took a sip of hot tea, and ignored Jia Yu.

Lin Ruhai left him a million taels of silver as a reward for taking care of Daiyu. He now quoted 200,000 taels. The most brilliant lies are all nine truths and one falsehood, and they are often hidden in the most critical places. Fools know that Lin Ruhai will leave him with silver.

The Lin family has been a marquis for generations, the savings of several generations, and Lin Ruhai's official residence before his death patrolled the history of the salt, in the impression of everyone, Lin Ruhai was a rich man. Since he entrusted Gu to Jia Huan, he will inevitably leave Jia Huan a sum of silver to use.

You must know that the inheritance that Lin Ruhai asked Jia Lian to help him deal with was as high as one million taels of silver. These are all "expenses" as Daiyu in Jiafu. Actually, what's going on, Lin Ruhai has been in the sea for many years, so he naturally knows it.

Of course, now this money has been diverted to Jiafu for the construction of the provincial villa. After a while, Jia Yuanchun, who was promoted to the concubine, came back to the province and gave the name "Grand View Garden".

Jia Huan ignored Jia Yu's emotion. The tense atmosphere of the scene became a little awkward. In front of Jia Huan, even if Jia Yu's eyes floated over, Jia Rong and Jia Lian would not say much. This team can't stand.

And Jia Zheng would not help Jia Yu ask for silver. If you want to talk about the cost of his niece's residence in Jiafu, just one million taels is enough. How can you ask Jia Huan again for the reason? It was the money that his brother-in-law had left for his niece.

Seeing that no one was helping, a look of displeasure appeared on Jia Yu's old face with bags under his eyes, but 200,000 taels of silver was in front of him, how could he let it go, looked at Jia Huan and said: "Brother Huan'er, it costs a lot to build a provincial villa at home. There are deficits everywhere. If you have any idle money, take it out and fill it for your family. ”

It's ugly.

Among the masters of Jiafu, the first place is undoubtedly Jia Zheng. Jia Yuanchun is his daughter, Wang Ziteng is his brother-in-law, and he is favored by Jia's mother. Even if Jia pardons the lord and is the eldest son, it is impossible to cross him. But Jia Zheng never took care of mundane affairs.

If Jia Huan handed over the money to fill the so-called Jia family's deficit, within a few days, the money would flow into Jia Yu's pocket. Can the housekeeper in Jiafuli still stop Jia pardon?

Jia Zheng, Jia Lian, and Jia Rong have different expressions. Jia Yu's greed, cruelty, and lust were well known in Jia's mansion. But this eats...

Jia Huan laughed and said, "Uncle talked about the construction of the provincial villa, but I have a reply to Ming father and uncle in advance." I asked Brother Qiang to bring back a message in Jinling, if anyone dares to be greedy - more than one percent, don't blame me for turning his face. Today is the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, and I will check the accounts once a year ago. ”

Jia Rong and Jia Lian both sighed in their hearts. They didn't take more. The ones who really take more are the big masters, and the people who are below.

Jia Yu's face suddenly turned unsightly, and he snorted coldly: "Brother Huan'er, it's not your turn to call the shots in this mansion." It's a big business you're doing out there! I've heard that the snow cream and perfume sell very well. How much money have you not given to the public school in the past two years? In my opinion, it is necessary to check the accounts. ”

The big feudal families practiced a cohabitation communist financial system. The money that men earn outside is distributed by their elders. For example, the official silver of Jia Yu and Jia Zheng is directly attributed to the Jia family's public middle school.

Of course, the larger the family, the more difficult it is to manage. Everyone has a small coffer. Just look at Jia Lian to understand.

In Jia's mansion, Jia's mother is still there, Jia Yu and Jia Zheng have not yet separated, Jia Yu said that he wanted to check Jia Huan's "small treasury" and ask Jia Huan to hand over additional income, which is indeed in the past.

In the Rongxi Hall, the atmosphere was tense and antagonistic again. The rift, because of the matter of silver, has clearly appeared between Jia Huan and Jia Yu, who have "cooperated closely" many times.

Jia Huan was unmoved, and said quietly: "Uncle wants to check my account, you can try." "The voice is very flat, but the will and attitude shown are very tough.

Jia Rong and Jia Lian couldn't help but look at each other, this can be regarded as tearing their faces, right? What does Brother Huan (uncle) think? Just returned to the house, doing it like this?

Jia Zheng said with a displeased expression: "Okay." Brother Huan, you have a relationship with a famous prostitute in Jinling, and you have ruined the reputation of my Jiafu, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet. In the first month, the concubine wants to come back to save her relatives, what accounts do you check at home? Make a fuss and show someone else's joke? ”

He doesn't take care of the house. I like a stable, calm, peaceful, and peaceful situation. reprimanded Jia Huan for dating a famous prostitute, but he was just looking for an excuse.

After finishing speaking, Jia Zheng said to Jia Yu again: "Big brother, the younger generation saves some money for themselves, and every family has it." Besides, that's how we came back then. There is no need to be serious. Of course, he would not agree to Jia pardon and check Jia Huan's account. He's not weak enough yet.

Jia Yu sneered and picked up the white porcelain teacup on the table to drink tea. I feel extremely uncomfortable. His younger brother disagreed, and it was for nothing that he wanted to trouble Jia Huan.

Jia Huan gave Jia Zheng a lot of face and did not speak. The account of the construction of the Grand View Garden must be checked. This is at stake in his prestige in the Jia Mansion. However, Jia Zheng is against it now, and he has to wait.

It just so happened that it was already lunchtime, and the deliberations of Rongxi Hall were over. It's not a good idea.

…

…

Jia Zheng and Jia Huan came out of Rongxi Hall one after another. Winter sunshine. Outside the gate of the five-bay room, more than 20 housekeepers and servants were waiting on the side of the road and under the eaves.

Jia Lian took the servant and followed Jia Yu to the east and left. Jia Huan followed Jia Zheng to his outer study. The lunch in the inner house had already started at Jia's mother's place, and none of them, the Jia people, would eat with their relatives.

Looking at the backs of Jia Zheng and Jia Yu, Jia Rong shook his head, he was the last to leave, and instructed the waiting housekeeper Shan Daliang to take his subordinates to clean up and close the Rongxi Hall. Looking at the familiar gardens and houses in front of me, I sighed in my heart.

Uncle Huan is back, and the house will enter an eventful autumn again!

Although he is timid and has no ability, in the past few years, his horizons have broadened a little, and he still understands some things. Obviously, Uncle Huan came back with the "general trend" and had an "enterprising" heart. So, I just came back today and fell out with the eldest master.

When Jia Rong stood at the door of Rongxi Hall in reverie, a few shouts came from her ears, "Uncle Rong, Uncle Rong." Jia Rong came back to her senses and saw that the chief housekeeper Shan Daliang was bowing down and looking at herself flatteringly. I smiled in my heart: This old thing. The most corrupt person who built this garden was him, except for the eldest master.

Jia Rong revealed: "Butler Shan, there's nothing wrong with you." The old man himself said that he would not let Uncle Huan check the accounts. "Since the Lai family was cleaned up by Uncle Huan and sent to Jinling to farm, the housekeepers in Jiafu no longer have such titles as grandfather and eldest brother.

Shan Daliang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appeared on his round face, and the forty or fifty-year-old suddenly saw that he looked a little radiant, and said with a smile: "Uncle Xie Rong takes care of it." The slave bought a new maid at home, and turned around to let Uncle Rong take a look. ”

When Lai Da and Lai Er were the big housekeepers of the two mansions, there were dozens of maids called by the Lai family. He is now the chief steward of Jiafu, and his family is slowly prospering. If you want to talk about food and clothing, he is not good to dedicate to Jia Rong. But he knows Jia Rong's hobby: women.

He privately heard that Grandma Rong had been suspended. Uncle Rong is now often hanging out with his stepmother's two younger sisters.

Jia Rong glanced at Shan Daliang with satisfaction and said with a smile: "En." Answered, stomped his feet, and took the little girl Shou'er, Xi'er and others out of the corner door and returned to Dongfu.

…

…

Returning to the courtyard located in the east of Jiafu, Jia Yu sat down in the chair with a stomach full of anger, and scolded Jia Lian with a calm face, "Look at it, father and son, how much together." You're good, I'll ask you to help me say something, but you won't. ”

Monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons, fathers, sons. People who are as lazy as Jia Zheng are in the minority. Jia Yu would scold and beat Jia Lian at every turn.

Seeing that the momentum was not right, Hong'er, Zhao'er and the others who followed in immediately withdrew after serving tea.

Jia Lian lowered his head and said with a helpless smile: "Father, don't you know how many handles Sister Feng has in the hands of Brother Huan, how dare I speak?" ”

He refused to stand on this team. Moreover, the family has already taken one million taels of silver from Cousin Lin's family.

Jia Lian's words are a little embarrassing: I'm afraid of my wife. But this matter, the whole family actually knows it. Jia Yu hated it and scolded: "Useless things." ”

The silver in Brother Huan'er's hand can't just be counted like this.

…

…

Jia Huan was half a step behind Jia Zheng, and walked along the corridor in front of Rongxi Hall to the flower hall next to Jia Zheng's study.

Jia Zheng glanced at Jia Huan out of the corner of his eye, and felt a little relieved in his heart. In the end, he didn't protect him in vain just now.

If Jia Huan knew that Jia Zheng thought so, he would probably be quite speechless. He followed Jia Zheng, not to show closeness to this cheap father, but that he had something to discuss with Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng's ability and temperament are simply not enough to be an ally, or worthy of entrusting him with great things. When it matters, it's unreliable.

What do you do with "father's kindness and filial piety"?

Jia Huan didn't have the idea of finding a father for himself. Even though, Jia Zheng is the number one person among the male protagonists of Jiafu.

His father, Jia Zheng can't afford it.

Entering the flower hall, Jia Zheng's elder Li Shi'er took people to serve tea, lit a charcoal basin, and smiled at Jia Huan flatteringly, and then withdrew.

Jia Huan looked at the quiet flower hall, on the front was a pair of Yan Zhenqing's ink inscriptions, under which there were eight immortal tables and pear blossom wooden chairs. There are also incense burners, mahogany tables, a number of kiln porcelain, vases, Western table clocks and other utensils.

The wealth of the century-old family is infiltrated in the subtleties of the flower hall. Mixed with the sunshine of the cold winter wax moon, it exudes a unique charm.

This is the first time that Jia Huan has followed Jia Zheng's daily activities. He remembered the feeling he had when he visited the ancient residence in tourist attractions before, which was less than one-ten-thousandth of Jia Zheng's here.

Jia Zheng sat at the table of the Eight Immortals, took a sip of tea, and his eyes fell on Jia Huan.
