dream of red mansion

Chapter 152 Jia Yucun Supplements Yingtian

After Jia Qing obtained the emperor's imperial decree and was awarded the title of Wenlin Lang, apart from the love of Jia Mu and Jia Jing, he also had a certain status in Jia's mansion.

Moreover, it has long been rumored in Jia's mansion that he will take part in this year's imperial examination, and people from the two mansions and the whole family are basically spreading the news that he will be the first child of the fourth generation of the Jia family to pass the exam.In the past, Jia Zhu, the eldest grandson of the Rongguo Mansion, was the only member of the fourth generation of the Jia family with a reputation. He was a scholar, but unfortunately he has died.

Based on these, Jia Qing has long been a hot topic in Jia's house.

This person has been discussed a lot, and it is inevitable that both the good and the bad will be discussed.

Jia Qing is a child born to an aunt, which is known to everyone. In this era, in families with legitimate sons, the common sons basically exist as a foil.

No matter how outstanding Jia Qing was, even if he still had an imperial rank and could receive a certain amount of salary from the Ministry of Households every year like Jia Zheng and others, it still couldn't conceal the fact that he was a bastard.

In the case of Jia Zhen's existence, he is not qualified to inherit the huge Ningguo Mansion!

Some people feel sorry, some are cynic, and there is a kind of people with ulterior motives who spread rumors and confuse the public with ulterior motives...

Jia's mansion has a big family and a large population. If there is nothing wrong, someone will find something to do, not to mention the current situation in Ningguo Mansion.Especially after Jia Qing returned from the Imperial College to prepare for the imperial examination, all kinds of remarks became even more rampant...

Jia Qing doesn't care about any of this!
Every morning, he went to Jia Jing's study to spend two hours reading, flipping through materials, and studying exam questions.Fang Shou gave him a lot of books and manuscripts, as well as Jia Jing's private collection, which can be said to be rich in resources.

When encountering any doubts, ask Jia Jing when he is present, and write it down first when he is not, and ask later.

In the afternoon, I went back to my study to review.If he wants to get close to Jia Jing, he must leave some private space, too much is too late, this is a common principle everywhere.

There is still a few months left to participate in Qiuwei, so Jia Qing can't afford not to pay attention!Although even Fang Shou said that the level of his articles is enough to win the fame of Juren, but the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. How can he not work hard during this critical period of time?

Therefore, he rarely even went to the Rongguo Mansion.

Yipintang Jia Qing's study.

"Second Master, I have your letter!"

Jia Qing was reading Fang Shou's Miscellaneous Notes on Confucian classics, when he heard what Pei Feng said after entering the door, he said casually, "Well, it's good to put it aside."

Peifeng obediently put the letter on Jia Qing's desk, and muttered, "That kid Wang Shun doesn't know what he's doing, he's very secretive. If there's a letter, women won't be allowed to take it in, and he'll ask me to go out and take it or not. He also told me not to let others see it..."

Oh, Jia Qing paid more attention when he heard the words, and picked up the letter on the side.

The fact that Wang Shuneng did this shows that this letter is very important, and he should have brought it from another hospital.In recent years, Jia Qing's foreign exchange center has been in the other courtyard in the back street, and there are several snow guards stationed there, who are specially guarded.

Take it apart to see:

"Second Uncle Ann, Nephew Yun worships.

According to Yun Zun's second uncle's order, Xunfeng's staff is good but not too many. The original staff of more than 500 has been reduced to more than 200 the day before yesterday.The extra [-] nephews have arranged them all into the brewing workshop under construction...

My nephew was stupid and didn't understand all the instructions of my second uncle, so the construction of the workshop was slow, and now I still have the audacity to ask my second uncle two questions:

……

Other than that, things in Jiangnan are going well.Xunfeng has now opened branches in several cities here. In addition to running business in several provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, it has also opened up the business route from Jinling to the capital.

As for the second uncle's instructing the nephew to pay attention to the Jiangnan affairs, the nephew also has two things to report.

One is about my Jia family's in-laws, the Xue family in Jinling.Xue Pan, the eldest son of Xue, used his power to bully others. Half a month ago, he had a dispute with others in Jinling City over buying a maid, which resulted in his death.Although Xue's family took care of it in many ways, the notoriety has spread... Now they have set off for Beijing as a whole family.

The second is about the affairs of Mrs. Lin's house. A month ago, Mrs. Lin suddenly fell ill, and his nephew also went to visit. Unfortunately, he couldn't see his real body. I don't know the specific situation... With an informant's report, he is now safe, second uncle Don't worry.But if there is a new situation, the nephew will report it to the second uncle immediately.

Hope to give back!

My nephew Yun respectfully invites Jin An. "

After Jia Qing read them one by one, all the previous ones were fine, including Xue Pan's beating to death, which Jia Qing had foreseen.Just about Lin Ruhai, Jia Qing still couldn't see clearly.

Lin Ruhai has been in charge of the Jiangnan Salt Administration for eight years. It stands to reason that he should have moved his position long ago, but there has been no movement.His current level is still too low, and he can't see things on their level.

But he still wanted to know more, so he asked Jia Yun to help him keep an eye on the movement of Lin's mansion, and now something really happened!

Although Jia Yun's letter was vague, Jia Qing still smelled something bad.But, he has nothing to do!

When Jia Qing read the letter, Peifeng obediently stood aside and studied ink for him.Jia Qing smiled slightly at her, and wrote a long letter to Jia Yun...

After it was finished, Pei Feng was not allowed to send it off, but said to her: "Sister Xiaofeng, you ask a little maid to pass on the message to Li Yan and the others, saying that I am going out and let them prepare."

He wanted to ask Wu Xian'er and the others about the recent situation of the White Lotus Sect.

"Okay second master."

……

The backyard of Rongxi Hall in Rongguo Mansion is where Jia Zheng usually rests.

Mrs. Wang stopped living in the same courtyard with Jia Zheng a long time ago. She lives alone in a large courtyard next to Rongxi Hall, in front of the courtyard of Tanchun and others.

"Is the lord in there?"

Mrs. Wang led the maid through the corridor and asked the maid standing at the door.

"Go back to Madam, here we are."

Nodding, Mrs. Wang walked into Jia Zheng's room.

Just as Jia Zheng came back from the morning court, he was drinking morning tea under the service of his servant girl, when he saw Mrs. Wang coming in, he said, "What are you doing here?"

"I've seen the master." Mrs. Wang said with a slight blessing, then walked to the first seat under Jia Zheng and sat down, saying:
"My younger sister is going to the capital next month. I'm thinking about keeping their mother-in-law three in our house, so we can sit and sit together so we can talk."

Jia Zheng said casually: "It's good for you to talk to the old lady about this matter. They are all relatives. When we arrive in Beijing, it makes sense to live in our house."

"It's just the place where we live...I saw that the Lixiangyuan in the northeast corner of our mansion has been empty for many years, why don't we put them there?"

Jia Zheng thought about it after hearing the words, this Lixiangyuan was originally set up for Duke Xianrong to rest in his old age, and everything is ready.Now that the Duke has passed away for many years, no one lives there anymore.Although it is said to respect the ancestors, it is not good to be so empty all the time. In this case, it is okay to give them a place to live.

"Alright!"

Jia Zheng did not intend to oppose her, which made Mrs. Wang very satisfied.asked again:

"I don't know if it's appropriate for Jia Yucun to make a supplementary award to Yin Tianfu?"

"It's settled. Yesterday he went to the Ministry of Officials to complete the paperwork, and he can leave for the south in a few days."

Having said this, Jia Zheng was also very happy.Jia Yucun has excellent talents, which he values ​​very much.He was also very satisfied with being able to accomplish this.

Mrs. Wang was even happier, and said: "Do you want to talk to him about Pan'er?"

Before he finished speaking, Jia Zheng's complexion suddenly became unhappy.But Xue Pan is his nephew after all, he can't ignore it.

"That's unnecessary. If you want to come to Yucun to know how to deal with it, it's not good for us to come forward."

Mrs. Wang thought about it, and said, "Master is still thoughtful!"

However, Jia Zheng did not continue this wave of flattery. He glanced at Mrs. Wang indifferently, then looked elsewhere, and said in a hateful voice:

"Beast!"
