Chapter 299
"Let's not talk about the profitable shop, let's talk about the servants in the mansion. I've never seen such an extravagant mansion."

"In Jia Baoyu's yard alone, there are more than ten or twenty maids, big and small, and the monthly salary of a maid is quite a fortune."

"In addition to the greed of the underlings, people who deceive the superior and the inferior abound, the students only lived in Jia's residence for more than a month, and they saw no less than two or three incidents of eating, drinking, fooling around, gambling and fishing. "

"If it's just that the family tradition is loose, it's fine if the servants are not upright. If you clean it up severely, you can kill this unhealthy trend."

"I'm afraid, the elders of the Jia family... Hey, the younger generation doesn't say anything about the elders."

"Sir, let me just talk about people of the same generation in the Jia family."

"Because I'm a foreigner as a student, I won't pass through the backyard easily."

"Just say that I have eaten wine with Jia Lian, Jia Qiang, Jia Rong, Jia Baoyu and even my aunt's concubine Jia Huan from the Jia family."

"Among these people... the only one who can see past is Jia Qiang, a branch of the Jia family."

"As for Rongguo Mansion, it is Jia Lian who is able to walk outside, and he can even do it..."

"Mr. Lin, there is no one in this generation who can handle such a huge mansion... The decline of the Jia family is just around the corner."

Hearing this, Lin Ruhai pondered for a while, and suddenly asked an inexplicable question: "Then Jia Baoyu from the Jia family, what do you think?"

Mai Fan thought about Jia Baoyu, who was only ten years old, and shook his head at Lin Ruhai.

"He is still young, but his heart seems to be kind. He was only raised by Jia's family, so he is too ignorant of common things and human feelings."

"It's only about homework..." Mai Fan showed a strange expression on his face: "But a piece of mud can't support the wall."

"But sir, the students think that in a situation like Jia Baoyu's, it might be a good thing if he spends his whole life in a daze and stays out of the way."

Lin Ruhai was a little surprised: "Why?"

Mai Fan sighed: "I only found out after I arrived in the capital. There is a saying that has been circulated among the nobles in the capital for a long time."

"It is said that the precious jade from Jia's family was born extraordinary. When it was born, colorful auspicious clouds fell in Jia's mansion. When this little baby landed on the ground, there was a piece of precious jade the size of a chicken egg in its mouth."

"And this Baoyu psychic has been by Jia Baoyu's side since he was a child."

"If Yu is here, this Jia Baoyu is indeed a transparent child, but if something goes wrong with this jade, he will not be by Jia Baoyu's side... This Jia Baoyu is a little muddled, not like a normal young man. "

"Besides, it's fine to be born rich, but that rumor has already involved fate..."

"Sir, with so many dignitaries in the capital, who would want to be suppressed by a second wife and second son from a first-class general's mansion?"

Hearing this, Lin Ruhai fell silent.

Mai Fan felt that this might not be enough, so he told Lin Ruhai about another strange situation in Jia's mansion.

"In the current Jia family, Uncle Jia She, the heir to the title, is living in the courtyard near Ma Peng."

"And my uncle lives in the main hall where Lord Zeng lived."

"I don't quite know what the old ancestors who are the masters of the family think, and they can't see the figure of the Jia family's principal family members."

"I only know that he is an old man who likes to play with antiques and girls... the kind who doesn't even need to go to court normally."

It wasn't until hearing this that Lin Ruhai's face was a little moved.

Because when his wife was seriously ill, she once had the idea of ​​marrying her daughter to Baoyu of Jia's family.

These years, Lin Daiyu lived in Jia's house, and Lin Ruhai was worried that he would not be able to take care of his daughter as a big man, but more importantly, he wanted Lin Daiyu to familiarize himself with the environment in the capital. When she grows up, she has cultivated a certain amount of affection, and the Jia family is Lin Daiyu's natal family, even if she is married, others are reluctant to treat her badly.

This kind of good thing of kissing and kissing seems to be better for his daughter.

But now I listen to my students describe the situation of Jia's mansion, and compare the letters that have been sent from Jia's mansion over the years...

Lin Ruhai hesitated.

Bit by bit, many details are telling him one thing, Jia's mansion is not as beautiful as he imagined, and the child named Jia Baoyu, from the current point of view, does not look like a good man.

Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai unconsciously turned his eyes to the young man in front of him.

Compared with Xue Pan, no, among the young people he knows, regardless of their wealth and background, there is no one who can compare with his own students.

It's a pity that Xue Pan is six years older than his own daughter.

The age difference of six years is remarkable.

This Xue Pan is fifteen years old now, and in a year or two he will reach the age to discuss marriage.

Even if the marriage is later, eighteen or nineteen years old must be settled.

At that time, my daughter was only about twelve or thirteen years old...

Lin Ruhai sighed, as if giving up on this kind of thinking, and asked Mai Fan casually: "Now that you have obtained the fame of Juzi, what are your family's plans?"

"Have you found some girls of the right age for you to look at? Your father has talked to me about this issue in recent years."

"I don't have any other requests. I just look at your results this year and give you a pertinent suggestion."

"If you want to meet someone, you might as well get out of the current circle, wait for three years, and talk about marriage after you take the Jinshi examination."

"It's best for the woman to find an official family, even if the official position is slightly lower, the poorer yamen is not afraid."

"What your Xue family lacks is not money, but an opportunity to be recognized by officials."

"Marriage is a very good way. Since he is a son-in-law, he is equivalent to half a nephew, so he will naturally be included in this circle."

"I just talked to my teacher before looking for someone. I can also help you analyze what kind of background this person is, and whether the circle he associates with is helpful to you."

Mai Fan knew that Lin Ruhai was doing it for his own good, so he agreed immediately.

Mai Fan is not disgusted with the matter of marrying a wife and having children. The villain system that brought him here has not responded at all. The function of the tavern here seems to be silent, and it is not working. Xue Pan, who was originally from the Red Chamber who didn't want to, didn't know where he had gone.

Mai Fan is ready for a long battle.
