Jia Min slapped her down, completely making everyone lose interest in bragging.
Did she hit Jia Baoyu?
How could a married aunt have the qualifications to discipline the Jia family's Qilin'er? What she was doing was beating the Jia family's face!
He also said that Jia Baoyu, who is well-read in poetry and books, and full of knowledge, is useless! He is useless, so is her daughter who still thinks about feeding cats while eating useful?
Find an opportunity to ask the servants to stew the cat! Mrs. Wang thought secretly in her heart.
After finishing the meal, Jia Mu calmly ordered Li Dongdong on the side: "Has the Bisha courtyard been sorted out?"
Li Dong nodded: "Second Master Bao's things have been moved to your warm pavilion. The lotus flower tent and several brocade quilts and satin mattresses have been cleaned, dried and spread."
Jia's mother then said to Jia Min: "It's been a long journey, please go back and rest early."
"Yes, mother!"
After being slapped, Jia Baoyu, who had been quiet for a while, suddenly said: "Good ancestor, I am perfectly safe on the bed outside the Bisha cupboard, why should my ancestor who came out to make trouble again be quiet?"
When he saw Lin Daiyu for the first time today, he felt that he and the girl seemed to know each other, and he subconsciously wanted to get closer.
Mother Jia frowned and looked at Jia Min, meaningfully.
According to her opinion, it was more than enough for her Qilin to be paired with the daughter of a rising official like Lin Ruhai. But looking at the behavior of her daughter and granddaughter, she was a little confused.
Is this Lin Daiyu worthy of his beloved?
Jia Min refused directly: "Mom, although these two children are still young, they are different between men and women, so they cannot do it."
"Ah?" Jia Baoyu exclaimed, and then he was ready to act up.
In front of grandma, almost all the treasures and things he wanted have been achieved so far.
"Um?"
Hearing the voice, Jia Baoyu raised his head and met his aunt's cold eyes. He suspected that if he said one more word, he would be beaten again.
"Aunt, aunt, what you said makes sense!" Jia Baoyu forced out a smile and said with a smile.
How come such a beautiful and well-behaved sister has such a violent mother?
What a pity!
Seeing her good grandson behave like this, Jia Mu was stunned and fell into deep thought.
Was there something wrong with her previous education? But she remembered that Jia Zheng often beat this baby up, but why did it never work?
Could it be that you were beaten less lightly before?
"My dear, please leave!" Jia Min stood up and left.
"Aunt, Sister Lin, I'll send you off!"
Jia Baoyu followed him out eagerly. He had no resistance at all to the pretty little sister.
After the others left, Jia's mother looked a little unhappy.
Although she felt that Lin Daiyu was not worthy of her precious grandson, there were two different things between her rejection and being directly rejected by others.
She was still the daughter she loved the most in the past. With all the money she had given her over the years, it was better to just give her food to a passerby. At least she knew how to kowtow and call her grandma.
"Old lady, look, Baoyu and you have been living together now, and it's not unreasonable for my sister-in-law to live in Baoyu's courtyard. Should we clean up the courtyard and come out?" Wang Xifeng asked quietly.
"How many free courtyards are there in the mansion now?" Jia Mu asked.
"The largest one is the Lixiang Courtyard for entertaining distinguished guests, the middle one is the Rende Courtyard where my second uncle lived when he was sleeping, and there are two other small courtyards in the northwest corner and the northeast corner." Wang Xifeng, as the current housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion, pondered.
Well versed.
Jia Mu nodded and looked at Mrs. Wang: "Today Min'er went to your place, did you tell her about selling some salt to us?"
Wang Xifeng's eyes were bright when he heard this.
No one knows that the huge prince's palace has been unable to make ends meet over the years, and sometimes the old lady even has to use some dowry money to supplement the expenses.
This money was not spent much, so why is it gone?
Even now, sometimes Wang Xifeng, with her distinguished status as the daughter-in-law of a dignified prince, goes out to lend money to earn some interest money, which is very embarrassing.
And if the Jia family can buy tens of millions of salt thanks to Lin Ruhai's identity, then it will be a real profit.
If you buy tens of thousands of taels for three taels of silver, you can make hundreds of thousands of taels by selling them. If you open a salt merchant by yourself, and use your connections as princes and add some private salt, you can earn nearly one million taels a year.
.
With so much money, who doesn’t care?
Of course, these things were taught by Wang'er who cooperated with Wang Xifeng in lending outside. In these years, thanks to Wang'er, Wang Xifeng has never been short of money.
Although Jia Zheng did not inherit the title, he is now the nominal housekeeper of the Rongguo Mansion. As the head wife, Mrs. Wang has already taken over the finances of the mansion. Naturally, she has heard from her nephew-in-law ‘Wang Xifeng’ about the importance of salt.
"So that my mother will know that no matter how powerful I say, my sister told me that Yanyin is managed by other officials, and my brother-in-law has no right to be responsible for these things." Mrs. Wang said with a bitter smile.
Mother Jia was stunned: "You didn't tell her about the financial difficulties of my Jia family? The total dowry I gave her at that time was probably one hundred thousand taels."
Mrs. Wang shook her head: "As I said, my sister said that if the mother is in trouble, she can return the dowry. As for the matter of Yan Yin, Ruhai really has no such right."
"Huh!" Jia Mu snorted coldly and said calmly: "It's really a married daughter. She is throwing water. Her dowry is only a few dollars.
Besides, others don’t know, but I don’t know? Then Yushi Qinggui, who wants some quotas but doesn’t give him face?
The four major families in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have all written to me and told me many times that this Lin Ruhai is arrogant and arrogant. Unexpectedly, she also has the same attitude when she comes home.
I think Lin Ruhai needs to be taught a lesson, and he should be made to know that without our Jia family, he can’t do anything!"
Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng looked at each other and remained silent.
If they get involved in someone scolding their son-in-law, they might turn around and hate themselves when the person's anger subsides.
After a long time, Wang Xifeng asked carefully: "Old lady, look at which one should be swept in this yard?"
Jia Mu said coldly: "Sweep for what? In a few days, the spilled water should go home. Do we still have money?"
After saying that, the old lady got up and left.
Is it easy for an old woman like her to maintain such a good foundation for everyone? As a result, everything did not go smoothly.
Now we can only hope that Baoyu, the unicorn, can take charge of the Jia family one day soon, carry the banner, and make the Jia family prosperous again!
…
Evening, Bisha Courtyard, inner room.
Jia Min combed Lin Daiyu's hair carefully, her eyes suddenly clear.
Time flies so fast, and in a blink of an eye, my daughter is so old.
"Mom, I saw my cousin and sister-in-law today and they don't seem happy."
Lin Daiyu, who was sitting obediently in front of the bronze mirror, suddenly said.
Jia Min was startled. After practicing with her daughter for a long time, she knew that the magic of the strange physical skills was not only the continuous growth of strength, but also the mysterious induction.
She can even blur other people's emotions now. Her daughter is the most familiar with Lele and has been practicing for a longer time, so naturally she can't deceive her.
"Yes, everyone has grown up, has his own home, his own ideas, and people he desperately wants to protect." Jia Min sighed.
Lin Daiyu tilted her head, still a little confused.
But it’s great to have Lele and my mother by my side. She can do what she wants freely.
"Mom, my aunt and cousin gave me a lot of money today." Lin Daiyu said happily.
Jia Min laughed: "Just keep what I gave you. Don't buy all the ginseng for Lele to eat this time. You have grown up, and my daughter's family needs all the money to buy some trinkets for you."
"Oh~" Lin Daiyu looked forward to it.
According to what her mother said, after a while, she will have menstruation. But that is not an injury, but a sign that she has grown up.
When girls grow up, do they look like those wet nurses?
Humph, I'll just give it to Lele reluctantly when the time comes. Who knows he likes drinking so much?
…
Because she had to take care of her son, Jia Min let Lin Daiyu sleep alone. She would not be afraid if the snow geese were with her.
Under the covers, Lin Daiyu and Xue Yan gathered together again to count their money.
One tael, ten taels, twenty taels, two hundred taels.
That’s a lot of money!
"Meow~" Miao Le, who had spent a day wandering outside and picking up rags, got into bed and saw so much money at a glance.
Noticing the return of the little yellow cat, Lin Daiyu was very vigilant. She quickly packed these items into a purse, put them inside her underwear, and patted them hard several times to make sure they were put away.
"Bang bang bang~"
"Lele, you are a noble cat, you can't steal money!" Lin Daiyu advised.
Noble moral character? Miao Le fell into deep thought.
"Yes, my parents have told me that you are an immortal from heaven who came down to earth to protect our family. As an immortal, you naturally regard money as dirt, keep faith and cultivate harmony, and guard your body like jade." Lin Daiyu said matter-of-factly.
The little yellow cat's eyes lit up: "Meow!"
You know, I have very little power now...
"Don't listen, I won't listen. Mother said that all the money at home will be given to you. You don't need my money at all! You are just lying to me!" Lin Daiyu shook her head firmly.
Every time you suffer a loss, you gain wisdom. Obviously, this little girl suffered a lot.
Miao Le felt very uncomfortable for a moment, his big blue eyes blinked, even a little aggrieved.
Why is it getting harder and harder to deceive today's poop shovelers?
Seeing Lele like this, Lin Daiyu instantly began to feel distressed again. She endured it for a while, sighed, took the little yellow cat into her arms, and stroked its little head.
"Lele, what's the relationship between us? If so, I'll give you twenty taels!" the little girl said reluctantly.
Miao Le raised his head and threw himself into the little girl's arms, with tears in his eyes: "Meow~"
Shit shovel, you are so kind to me!
Lin Daiyu was like a young adult and said grandly: "Of course, I am your young master. If I am not good to you, who will I be good to?"
Miao Le raised his head and looked at her affectionately: "Meow~"
Do you know why I chose you to be my shit-sweeper?
Lin Daiyu blinked, very curious: "Why?"
"Meow~"
Because of your eyes, she has seen countless sunrises and sunsets, and seen thousands of bustling fireworks, until she looked into my eyes;
Because of your hand, it has touched the vicissitudes of life, and has passed through time and space until it touches my fingers;
Because of your little feet, they have walked all over the land, endured wind and sand, and waded through water channels until they met me.
Lin Daiyu felt a blockage in her heart. At this moment, she suddenly felt that there was no words in the world that sounded better than this, and there was no one else who could move her so much.
"Lele!" Lin Daiyu hugged the little yellow cat with tears streaming down her face.
"Give it to you, I'll give it to you, I'll give you whatever you want!
Isn’t it just money? From now on, I will study hard and practice hard every day, and then earn it! I want you to be full of food every day, and you can eat whatever you want!”
The little yellow cat was hugged into a ball, its tail swaying, feeling a little guilty.
As a Tmall, even though I am a little older than Shoushi Shi, I am still an elder. How could I deceive an inexperienced little girl like this?
Immoral, quite immoral!
This will never happen a third time!
…
The next day, early in the morning, Jia Min got up to wash up and called Lin Daiyu.
According to the rules of the Jia family, the younger generation must greet the old lady every day to show filial piety and respect.
As a daughter, Jia Min has not enjoyed her mother's care and comfort for a long time since she married into the Lin family, and she is looking forward to it. No matter how old she is, sometimes she still acts like a child when facing her parents.
Soon, a girl came over, it was Yuanyang who was in charge of the old lady's accounts.
"Miss Third, the old lady is not feeling well today. She came here specifically to ask me to say hello to you. There is no need to say hello this morning!" Yuanyang said with a smile.
Jia Min, who was fiddling with her headdress, was stunned: "Ah, okay, what about tomorrow?"
Yuanyang continued to smile: "The old lady told me that Third Miss has been tired of traveling and traveling. Now that she is home, she should have a good rest. She can eat and play whatever she wants. There is no need to go to greet her in the future."
Jia Min was startled, then slowly put down the jade hairpin in her hand and remained silent, not even knowing when the mandarin duck left.
When Lin Daiyu came over with the little yellow cat in her arms, she saw her mother sitting there, crying, but she didn't cry a word.
"Ah, mother, why are you crying? This time Lele didn't cheat me out of money, I spent it on him willingly!" the little girl said anxiously.
Could it be that I was so stupid that my mother cried in anger.
Miao Le:..........
"Suck~" Jia Min shrugged her nose and held her daughter tightly in her arms.
"Xiao Yu'er, we are a family. Mom is no longer a Jia family member. We will go back after the New Year."
Lin Daiyu was confused, but she patted her mother's back and tried to comfort her.
After complaining, Jia Min felt even more empty in her heart. In the eyes of her mother, maybe selling some salt was just a note, a small thing.
But before he came, my husband said that almost all the officials in Yangzhou were watching him. Not to mention selling salt secretly, if he made a mistake in his calculations, the entire Lin family would be destroyed.
But will mothers care?
Not at all. They just want the Jia family to live well. As for other people, what does it have to do with the Jia family?
Your own suffering may just be the mist of others.笇
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, hurry up... hurry up and pack up, Lord Angel is here!" Wang Xifeng rushed in in a panic, panting, her chest heaving.
Jia Min was stunned. Before she could get up, she saw a eunuch hurriedly following him.
"The Queen's Oral Order!" Manager Chen shouted hurriedly.
Jia Min, Wang Xifeng and others quickly knelt down.
"Mrs. Lin, please go to the palace quickly to pay your respects. I express my gratitude to you."
"My wife accepts the order."
Jia Min stood up in confusion, not knowing what was happening.
Manager Chen came forward and grabbed her: "Mrs. Lin, stop touching her. The Queen is waiting outside. Come with me."
When Jia Min left, Wang Xifeng and the remaining Lin Daiyu stared at each other in confusion.
After a while, Jia Mu hurried over, bringing a group of maids and boys with her.
"Quick, together, you must clean up Lixiangyuan before the third lady comes back. How did you do it? My dearest baby daughter is back, how can I let her live in this shabby place?"
Wang Xifeng:......
"What are you looking at? I'm talking about you. How did you become the head of the family?" Jia Mu said angrily to Wang Xifeng.
