dream of red mansion

Chapter 289 Negotiated
"Did he really say that?"

In Mengpo Zhai, Jia Zheng looked serious and frowned.It's not that he dislikes Jia Qing's blatant demand for the right to make arrangements, but he just can't figure out why Jia Qing wants to do this.

However, because of his face, he didn't want to discuss these "little money matters" with Jia Qing face to face.

Jia Lian at the bottom said: "That's what the second brother said. My nephew can see that he really thinks that we don't have enough money to build the mother-in-law's villa."

Jia Zheng still couldn't figure it out: "Even though he has money, it's not a small amount. Did you tell him that our house can only give out so much money?"

"That's right, it's just that the second brother doesn't seem to care about this at all. I even feel that as long as he is allowed to build the garden, we can do it without giving money."

Jia Zheng said, "Nonsense!"

Then he said: "You go and call your father and a few gentlemen over, let's discuss it again!"

Jia Lian obeyed and left, still complaining in her heart: I really feel this way.
After a while, Jia Zheng's guests arrived, and after a while, Jia Amnesty also rushed over.

After hearing this, Zhan Guang, Shanpinren, Cheng Rixing, etc. all had the same reaction as Jia Zheng, but when Jia She heard about it, he immediately asked, "Is it because he wants to take care of this matter because he wants to make a profit from it?"

Jia Lian rolled her eyes in her heart, could it be that Dad, you think this family-saving villa can be built with 8 to [-] taels of silver?

Jia Amnesty also had a prejudice against Jia Qing in his heart, so he always thought of the bad and didn't think too much about it.

Jia Zheng shook his head and said, "No, it's all projects that can be seen clearly. How can there be any talk of profit?"

Jia She said: "Then you don't have to think about what he wants to do, just take the money directly, or we build it ourselves, wouldn't it be a waste of brainpower?"

Jia Zheng frowned, not liking Jia Amnesty's statement.Since it is the money jointly provided by the two governments, how can they completely exclude that side from "myself"?

But I also knew my elder brother's temperament, so I didn't distinguish with him, and asked the Qingke for their opinions.

Dan hired humanity: "I think Brother Lian's words are right. Brother Qing who came to your residence is also well-known and known for his talent. He has been praised by the two saints of today, which shows his outstanding talent!

Now that the elder brother wants to organize a family-visiting villa for his mother, he thinks he has some calculations.But no matter what it is, in short, it will not be bad. In this way, the master will save trouble, and the mother's family's family villa is destined to be the same, so why not do it? "

Zhan Guang continued: "That's exactly the case. Besides, the family-visiting villa is built at home. Although Brother Qingshi manages it, it does not prevent the master from watching and watching. If something goes wrong, the master can stop it. If so, there is no mistake. thing."

Not to be outdone, Cheng Rixing also said: "Besides, the two governments are as close as one family, how can they be divided over such a small matter? So, the master might as well entrust Brother Qing Shi to take care of this matter entirely. He only serves as an on-site supervisor. , isn't it easy?

Moreover, as the master is a member of the Ministry of Industry, Brother Qing Shi will inevitably ask the master for such a big matter. From this point of view, it has no influence on the master at all! "

It's just that Jia Zheng can't figure it out. He is not good at common affairs, and it's not that he wants to handle the matter himself.

Now that his Qing customers all agree that this matter can be handed over to Jia Qing, it actually suits his wishes.

After thinking about it, she made sure there was nothing wrong with it, so she said, "So, let's do as Qing'er said! Lian'er, you can help him with this matter in the future."

"Yes."

Jia's mother is very happy recently. Yuan Chun, whom she raised and educated, has become a concubine. You know, there are only four concubines in the entire harem!

Behold its glory!

What is even more gratifying is that the emperor actually allowed her to go home to visit her relatives, which was an unexpected happy event.

Tonight, she didn't feel sleepy after dinner, but left the person who came to pay her respects to play with her.She was so interested that Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing and almost all the female family members of the Rongguo Mansion rushed over, and even Aunt Xue and her daughter who were talking to Mrs. Wang also came together.

Just as she was talking and laughing, Mother Jia suddenly asked, "I heard that my aunt's brother met a thief when he went out a while ago? Is there something wrong?"

Aunt Xue has been worrying about this for the past few days, but the Jia family has so many happy events, she will not take the initiative to talk about these disappointing things, she just mentioned it to Mrs. Wang, I don't know how Jia's mother knows.

"Thank you, old lady, for your concern. It's not a big deal, and the evil in my family is also fine." Aunt Xue replied.

Mother Jia also felt that she had been listening to happy events for the past two days and wanted to hear other adjustments, so she asked in detail, "What's going on? The thief has been caught?"

The sisters of the Jia family also listened intently, this young master of the Xue family has too many things to do, how long has he only been here?It's so interesting to get so many things done every now and then!
Aunt Xue didn't want to say more at first, but since Mother Jia asked, she had to say: "It's just that it's strange to say, I asked people to ask people in the government, and they all said that they never knew that there were such things near the capital. A group of thieves, I have never even heard of it. He promised to look for it, but it has been a few days, and there is no news at all, as if these people have all disappeared."

After hearing this, Jia's mother said, "Since he's fine, maybe your brother was playing outside and accidentally bumped into someone else. They deliberately bluffed him!"

This remark fit Aunt Xue's wishes, and she thought so too.Otherwise, why would they arrest people for no reason, neither asking for money nor hurting people!It's just that it's too wicked, thinking that Xue Pan can only eat one steamed bun a day for more than half a month, her heart hurts!
Helpless, even the government can't find this group of people, what can she do as a woman?Fortunately, people are fine this time, it is better to send more people to follow when going out in the future!

Aunt Xue thought so, and replied:
"The old lady is right. After all, it is his own behavior that makes others scare him like this. I only hope that he has suffered a loss this time, can understand some truths, and act more prudently in the future. Even if he suffers a little bit of punishment, It's worth it!"

Mother Jia nodded, feeling that Aunt Xue was really a sensible person.

Just at this time, Jia Lian came in to greet him, and Jia's mother asked him how the discussion on the construction of the family-saving villa was going.

Jia Lian smiled and said: "It has been basically negotiated. Starting from the garden of the East Mansion, it will be connected to the East Courtyard of our Mansion, and then turned to the north. A total of three and a half miles of land has been measured for the construction of the family-friendly villa. The drawings have also been drawn, and now Just waiting to get started.”

Seeing that it was ready so quickly, Mother Jia became more and more happy, said "OK" a few times, and asked, "Which area are you in charge of?"

Originally, Mother Jia was just asking casually, and he never cared about such things outside the second door.

Who knows that Jia Lian hesitated all of a sudden, and Jia's mother became suspicious and asked, "Why, don't you still want to be happy at this time, can't you do it if you don't work here?"

Jia Lian hurriedly said: "That's impossible, it's just that now the master has left the construction of the family-saving villa to the second younger brother in the mansion, and the grandson doesn't know what errands he will arrange for the grandson."
