The layout in the east wing of Sanssouci Hall is atmospheric and beautiful. The same is divided into a warm pavilion, a living room, and a bedroom. There is a desk on the left in the living room, with a yaoqin and calligraphy and paintings. Right to the window. A few nanmu chairs and tables are lined up.

Jia Huan hugged Su Shishi's chair in front of the window and spoke. Behind him, the morning sun was still shining through the yellow branches of the jujube trees in the courtyard.

When Sister-in-law Zhu came in, Jia Huan didn't hold Su Shishi anymore. The pleasure of the boudoir is not enough for outsiders.

Li Kun was wearing a plain cardigan and a light blue skirt, with a graceful posture and beautiful and elegant. Seeing Su Shishi and Jia Huan sitting side by side, between their eyebrows and eyes, they knew that she had come at the wrong time.

Li Kun was amused in his heart, and when he knew that the two of them were young people, he said with a smile: "Uncle Huan, the palace of Dongping County sent someone to send two Xuande furnaces over. The old lady rewarded you. I'll send it. Besides, the old lady's chilling party is about to start, waiting for you to pass. ”

Li Kun calls Jia Huan from the identity of his son Jia Lan, which is very close. Bring the precious Xuande furnace that Su Yun is holding.

Jia Huan was sitting, and it was a little inconvenient to get up at the moment. asked Dan'er to accept it, and thanked: "Sister-in-law Lao will take a trip." I'll go to the old lady. ”

Su Shishi got up, with a faint blush on her beautiful jade face, and said, "I'll go change my clothes." "She likes white dresses. But the white dress gave her too many points, so she changed to a normal shirt.

Jia Huan wants to wait for Su Shishi together. Li Kun sat down and said with a soft smile: "Uncle Huan, when you returned home a few days ago, I didn't call Lan'er back from the academy, please don't blame you." On the same day, Zhen Baoyu came to the house to congratulate. Apparently rushed back from Wendao Academy.

Jia Huan was so awake that he knew what Li Kun was talking about. motioned for her to drink tea, and said with a smile: "My own family, don't talk about these false courtesies." But today's lord is promoted, and Lan Ge'er should come back. Sister-in-law Zhu did a good job. ”

No matter how Li Kun accepts his favor and is grateful to him, but in front of people, she is not good at showing too closeness after all. Avoid suspicion.

Listening to Jia Huan's words, Li Kun suddenly smiled, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, his eyes were bright, and he said softly: "Uncle Xie Huan." "There is a charming, gentle young woman's style, which is revealed and overflowed in this way on a winter morning. She was twenty-eight years old.

Jia Huan praised in his heart. Sure enough, it's a beauty ranked among the twelve golden hairpins! This style...! The young and beautiful young woman is tender.

The 87th version of the Red Mansion TV series really played her ugly. Even if the heart is like ashes, the wood is like a withered tree, number: Daoxiang old farmer. But her appearance and temperament are all first-class standards.

Now Jia Lan is studying in Wendao Academy, she doesn't need to stare at it every day, stay up late, work hard, think about it, she won't die early. And when in the Grand View Garden, spend the most beautiful time of her life.

…

…

Jia Huan took Su Shishi and accompanied by Li Kun from the backyard of Sanssouci Hall to the south to the Grand View Garden. At this moment, Baochai, Daiyu, Xiangyun and others in the Wuyuan Garden have all arrived at Jia's mother.

Jia Huan and his entourage went straight to the west of Yongdao, went out of the corner gate of the Grand View Garden, and went around from the back of Rongxi Hall to the upper room of Jiafu West Road.

"The third master is here." Jade, glass, silly eldest sister, and a few of Jia's mother's maids were waiting outside the door and lifted the curtain.

Jia Huan smiled and nodded to them, and took the first step to enter the flower hall.

In the fifteenth year of the Red Mansion, the reason for the inspection of the Grand View Garden was that the silly eldest sister saw a colorful embroidered sachet. But, right now, it's impossible. First, Jia Yu died, Jia Lian completely fell to Jia Huan, and it was useless for Mrs. Xing to fight for anything.

Second, Jiafu has let go of maids twice on a large scale. Men should get married, and women should get married. This kind of thing can't be stopped. The eldest girl of the spring festival, Si Qi, married her cousin Pan You'an. It's just that there are still two years to go out of the cabinet. She was reluctant to serve at the spring festival.

The maids who are old, those who originally intended to marry, and the internal stewards of Lin Zhixiao's family are all arranged. If you don't want to marry, you can keep it. Jia Huan said this earlier, and Wang Xifeng was not allowed to interfere. Sister Wang Feng will only gain power and has no public heart.

This is also the reason why Jia Huan is reluctant to keep the twelve officials to be a maid in Jiafu. They have all seen the world in Suzhou, and they are in Jiafu as a troupe, and they don't do housework. How do you want to adapt to the little guys in Jiafu? Each has its own fate, so there is no need to force it.

…

…

In the flower hall, the hall is full of pearls and greens. The ladies and daughters of Jiafu are all there. Wealth, beautiful girls, this does not need to be counted. Laughter continues: Jia's mother's laughter; Mrs. Wang's reserved smile, Aunt Xue's echoed smile, Wang Xifeng's loud and coquettish laughter, and the clear laughter of the girls; The maids were playing, giggling.

Gathered into a pleasant song, embellished with the festive picture of today's winter solstice cold wine: the momentum of Jiafu at this time, steaming up, who doesn't like it?

As soon as Jia Huan entered the door, all eyes were on him. Jia Huan stepped forward, saluted Jia's mother, and said, "My grandson has seen my ancestor. Thank you for the reward of your ancestors. I just saw the old ancestor and his wife talking and laughing, I don't know what it is? ”

Jia's mother was full of silver hair, eighty years old, a little fat old lady, wearing a decent gown of dark blue satin fabric, looked at Jia Huan kindly, and said, "It's just a small object." Our family didn't miss these things earlier. ”

Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue, Wang Xifeng and others all smiled and agreed, "That's." ”

In the spring of the fourteenth year of Yongzhi, Jia pardoned the crime and seized the title, and Jiafu paid a huge fine to pass the test. Hundreds of thousands of taels of silver hollowed out Jiafu's family funds. Nearly bankrupt. Because, Jia Huan's scheduling can be regarded as passing.

The auction house of Xinfeng is now divided into two parts, one part is the auction business. Part of it is the business of the club-office of the Xuanyun Xuan.

Jia Huan intended to split it again, spin off the financial business from the Xinfeng, and prepare to join the Hui merchant consortium to bid for the coinage rights of the imperial court.

No one knows this kind of inside information better than Jia Huan. The right to mint money belongs to the central bank, but, judging from the situation of Chinese dynasties, unless the coinage loses money, inferior private money is repeatedly banned. In the era when the imperial power did not go to the countryside and the powerful landlord clans were huge, to unify weights and measures, the only way to divide the coinage power was to the big forces.

There is a precedent for this: the British pound has the right to issue the British pound, not only the Bank of England, but also the Royal Bank of Scotland. Of course, there are restrictions on rights. The Federal Reserve, instead of a single bank, is made up of a number of federal savings banks. There are three Hong Kong dollar issuance rights: Bank of China, HSBC, and Standard Chartered Bank.

Of course, monetary rights, the ultimate power must be in the hands of the central bank.

When it comes to promoting silver coins, it is necessary to pull people onto the ship to form a joint force. Instead, think about limiting power. Of course, the back hand should be kept, and the banks that minted the coins should be suppressed in the future.

As for how to set up industry associations, there were associations in all walks of life at this time. Ready-made experience.

It should be clarified: in the dynasty, money can buy power, but money can never determine power. Political forces dominate the distribution of economic benefits.

Jia Mu smiled again, pointed at Mrs. Wang, and said, "Let your wife say." ”

Mrs. Wang smiled: "I was talking about Zhen Baoyu just now. He is similar to your second brother, and he is a classmate of Brother Lan. I heard that he is here today. I have sent for him to come in. ”

Jia Huan smiled and nodded. He's just a spectacle. To say how close he is to Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang, how can it be? After greeting Aunt Zhao, I greeted everyone one by one, sat among the golden hairpins, and laughed with the girls. He has no intention of stealing the limelight from Jia Mu here.

Looking at Jia Huan and Sister Lin whispering and laughing, Sister Lin covered her mouth with her little hand and smiled, charming as a flower, Jia Baoyu's face sitting next to Mrs. Wang was green.

However, this time is different from the past, and if the big face treasure wants to open up, it must also consider the consequences: it is definitely not good. The small black house of the ancestral hall and the big board of the political father are not easy to bear.

…

…

While waiting for Zhen Baoyu to come in, Jia Huan chatted with Yingchun for a few words. Before the death match with Eunuch Liu, Jia Huan ordered Xue Zhen to go south to the merchant and take Xue Pan away by the way. It will not be until next spring that the caravan will return.

Jia Huan turned to talk to Xichun again, "Fourth sister, has the white snow glass map ever been drawn?" ”

The original little one has grown up, and Xichun is now more than thirteen years old, wearing a purple dress, and her appearance is delicate and pretty. But there is a cold, indifferent embroidered Houmen's noble girl temperament. A very outstanding woman.

Xichun smiled lightly: "Third brother, it's still early." I learned your sketching and drawing, which took up a lot of effort. He added: "Third brother, you said that there are many Buddhist murals in the Mogao Grottoes. I don't know when I'll see it. ”

"That will take time. Perhaps, there will be a picture scroll circulating in the market. Jia Huan smiled bitterly in his heart, cherishing spring, he really believes in Buddhism. As long as she is not "lying alone next to the ancient Buddha of the green lantern".

Luo Junzi and her marriage, Jia Huan and Jia Rong passed through the anger. I also talked about it with Xichun. Although the etiquette law is said to be "blind marriage and dumb marriage", who will abide by the real big family? Anyone who loves his daughter will let his daughter take a look at each other's character and appearance in advance. Jia Huan and Xichun talked, but it was nothing.

Xichun was noncommittal on the matter.

According to Jia Huan's estimate, if this marriage is completed, the fourth sister will have a cold temperament, which is enough for Luo Junzi to bear. But, from Brother Xichun's point of view, such a high-quality classmate "doesn't pit", who does he "pit"?

…

…

The front yard of Jiafu is very lively. The children of Jiafu, such as Jia Lian, Jia Rong, Jia Qiang, Jia Yun, Jia Lan, and Jia Cong, all helped entertain guests.

Zhen Baoyu was in a wing room in the front yard with the second son of Zhao Heling, the head of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Shu Ji Shi Luohua, and Xu Yinglang, the head of the military department who was engaged to Xing Xiuyan. Silently listened to the laughter of the crowd.

Speaking of which, Zhen Mansion can also be regarded as an old friend of Jiafu. Generally, it is best to rank with the Wang family, Shi family, Feng Ziying and others. However, there are scribes here. It's just that Zhen Baoyu is still just a child who passed the school test. All of you here are Jinshi meritorious names.

Of course, no one would have expected that Zhen Baoyu, who was inconspicuous at this time, would achieve achievements in his career in the future.

Zhen Baoyu was listening, called out to a servant in Jiafu, got the letter, and went to Jia's mother's room to meet Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang. Zhen Baoyu saw that Jia Huan was also there, so he hurriedly saluted and said, "I've seen Brother Huan." ”

Jia Huan sat behind the desk, smiled and said, "Brother Zhen doesn't have to be polite. I'm going to go out and have a few drinks with everyone in a while. ”

Looking at Zhen Baoyu in the middle of the flower hall, he looks the same as Jia Baoyu: the iconic big round face, the face is like Fu powder, and the lips are like grease. Shi Xiangyun excitedly pulled Lala Baoyu's sleeve. "I love my brother, he looks the same as you."

Jia Baoyu had heard about it a long time ago, but this was the first time he and Zhen Baoyu had met. Seeing each other today, Brother Zhen is really a first-class person. Today, my brother will meet Zhifan, and I want to learn the truth of transcendent sanctification, so that I can cleanse my vulgar intestines and reopen my eyes. ”

Among the girls in Jiafu, a few of them couldn't hold back and chuckled. Laughers: Daiyu, Xiangyun, Baoqin, Tanchun! A few maids snickered. Who is this boasting about? The latter words, the more they talked, the more bizarre they became, obviously, Bao Erye's idiocy was committed again.

Zhen Baoyu was stunned for a moment, he heard Jia Lan say Baoyu's style, and then listened to it again, remembering all the absurdities when he was at home in Jiangnan in the past, and the romance was always blown away by the rain and wind. In the old days, Wang Xie Tang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people. For a while, I felt unspeakable emotion and said bluntly: "

When my brother was young, he didn't know the weight, and he said that he could still ponder. How do you know that the family has been eliminated, and it has been more than rubble for several years, although I dare not say that I have experienced all the joys and hardships, but the world knows a little bit about people. The world brother is clothed and fed, and he is unsatisfied.

When my younger brother was young, he also hated those clichés, but it grew like a year, and gradually eliminated the fantasy and infatuation when he was young. Now I want to study for the imperial examination, fight for a right path, and the lintel of the light gate. ”

Jia Baoyu listened, and the smile on his face slowly faded. With the cleverness of the big-faced treasure, it is natural to hear that Zhen Baoyu and Jia Huan are the same kind of people. Feeling uncomfortable: It's Huan Laosan's sour remarks again, so boring.

Mrs. Wang listened to the two Baoyu and replied a few words, the more she looked at Zhen Baoyu, the more she liked it, it was rare that this child had a down-to-earth temperament and was willing to be motivated, and asked Aunt Li with a chuckle, "How is it?" I'm not wrong, am I? She wanted to be a matchmaker for Aunt Li's second daughter, Li Qi.

Aunt Li smiled and said, "But it's up to my wife to decide." ”

Mrs. Wang smiled, turned her head and asked Zhen Baoyu, "Have you ever been married?" ”

Zhen Baoyu was a little confused when she asked Mrs. Wang. Since the death of his eldest brother Zhen Li, his father has been far away in the southwest. He supported the gateway of the Zhen Mansion. As he said to Jia Baoyu: However, the world knows a little bit about people.

But, in the end, it was a sixteen-year-old young man. Immediately, he said truthfully: "If you return to Mrs. Hui's words, no." ”

Mrs. Wang nodded, "Yes." I'll visit your wife another day. His eyes swept over Tanchun, and he suddenly remembered, and asked again: "Have you three girls ever promised someone?" ”

Zhen Baoyu was a little embarrassed and said, "No." "The Zhen family is in decline. His third sister's marriage has not yet been decided. It's hard to find a wishful person.

Mrs. Wang didn't ask any more.

In August, the old lady was 80 years old, and Concubine Nan'an wanted to take Tanchun as her goddaughter. She was having a seizure. Nowadays, the palace of Nan'an County is full of fallen trees. She intended to accept a girl from the palace of Nan'an County as her goddaughter.

Tanchun has reached the age of getting married. Listening to the master's tone, Queen Yang treats the king of Shu like a son, and is interested in exploring spring.

Mother Jia, Mrs. Wang and Zhen Baoyu said a few words and let him out. Later, the cold meeting in the flower hall will be held.
