Seven hundred and twenty-eight: Water mirror, lake and sky
Upon hearing this, Daiyu just shrugged her little nose at Jia Jing: "You, Shaohu, are teasing me. If it weren't for my father to have an overview of the overall situation and the battle of wits and courage for so many years, would you still be able to do so smoothly?"
Hearing this, Jia Jing glanced at Daiyu with some surprise and said, "Did you think of it yourself?" Daiyu blinked and said, "What's so surprising about this?"
Jia Jing nodded in a funny way and said, "That's right... I just didn't expect our men to be so smart..." Daiyu reached out and hit him.
Jia Jing smiled and did not hide. Daiyu glared at him and did not forget to warn: "After you go, don't think that the matter is over and relax your vigilance. These people are not easy to take lightly. You must be extra careful."
.”
Jia Jing nodded and agreed with a smile, then stood up and prepared to leave, but before leaving, she said to Daiyu as if she remembered something: "By the way, what have you thought about what I told you last time?"
?”
When she mentioned this, Daiyu's little face wrinkled up and she whined like a defeated dog: "I don't dare..."
When Jia Jing heard this, she couldn't help but said in a funny voice: "What is there to be afraid of? You are the housekeeper now, and you have the final say in all the household affairs of the whole family. What is there to be afraid of?"

Daiyu said hesitantly: "After all, they are the old people who have been serving dad for many years. I am no longer with dad, so I rely on them more. Now I will drive them away as soon as I come back... Anyway, there should be a few
Is it just a matter of friendship?"
Hearing this, Jia Jing stepped forward with a wry smile and said, "Silly girl, you treat her like your aunt, but she treats you like a thorn in her side!"
Several times before, several of Lin Ruhai's more thoughtful concubines were prepared to be "Mrs. Lin". Even if they couldn't do it in name, they could at least compete for a housekeeper's wife, right?
As a result, Daiyu came back, and Lin Ruhai directly handed over the stewardship of the Lin family to Daiyu! How could any of those concubines feel comfortable?
Therefore, there was a lot of trouble during this period. Daiyu had no choice but to give in because the other party was her aunt. Daiyu gave in, but Jia Jing would not tolerate them, so she directly told Lin Ruhai about it.
Lin Ruhai was making plans, so he didn't pay much attention to this matter. He just asked Lin Xingzong to beat a few aunts to increase Daiyu's power.
For this reason, Jia Jing thought it was inappropriate to continue taking these concubines with her. When Lin Ruhai heard what Jia Jing said, she also realized that these concubines were blocking Daiyu's way...
Therefore, Lin Ruhai also acquiesced in the return path of these concubines. For Lin Ruhai, these concubines were really just tools to carry on the family line. There might be some affection, but compared to her daughter, they were not worth mentioning!
But when the ball was kicked back to Daiyu's feet, the style of painting changed. According to Jia Jing's wishes, a disobedient woman would be destroyed directly. According to Lin Ruhai's wishes, it would be over once the relationship is over...
…
But Daiyu is not so cruel... Although these women are a little jealous of her, they are all self-aware and never dare to ask for the position of a big wife.
Besides, she has been respectful to her mother all these years, and they have always been taking care of Lin Ruhai's daily life. Daiyu couldn't bear to send her away like this...
So when Jia Jing said this, Daiyu also looked at him weakly and said: "How can it be as evil as you said? It's normal for the aunts to have some ideas. Besides, they have been with dad for so many years. I
I can’t bear to let them die.”
Jia Jing said with a helpless smile: "Even if my uncle handles this matter himself, he will handle it this way. It's just that he leaves this matter to you for your own sake. If you are merciful at this time, it's not my uncle's intention.
Is everything wasted?"
As the wife of the housekeeper, Daiyu directly dismissed so many of her father's concubines. With such a prestigious reputation, the entire city of Yangzhou, let alone the Lin family, was shaken! From now on, who would dare to underestimate Daiyu's skills?
It's just that no matter how good Jia Jing and Lin Ruhai's plans are, they can't resist Daiyu's weakling...
She is not a woman with such a strong personality. When she does such a thing, she only feels guilty for her aunts. How can she be as high-spirited as outsiders think?
Jia Jing spread her hands and said: "If there is no other way, then we can only send some of the disobedient aunts back. I will make arrangements and give them more gold and silver. I will secretly ask people to find some honest and responsible people to marry into."
Wouldn’t it be better to be a real wife?”
Daiyu hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and then nodded slowly: "These still depend on dad's wishes. I can't make the decision casually. I'll go ask dad for instructions before I say anything."
In fact, Lin Ruhai didn't care much. Although some of the concubines had been with him for a long time, most of them didn't care much because they were people who entertained people with sex!
Even if the wife is divorced, she still needs to be allowed to marry someone else. If a concubine wants to marry into someone else's house and become his wife, is there any reason why she must not allow it?
In fact, these days, some people give their concubines to others to play with...
Only wives should not be humiliated. Concubines are something that most good brothers who have a good relationship with are interested in. If you don't feel bad about it, just give it away!
For example, in the very famous "Han Xizai Night Banquet", there is a picture of a bed with a blue quilt bulging into a ball. This is actually a metaphor for the guests who rolled together with Han Xizai's concubine...
…
It is said that there is also a story that after Han Xizai entered the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was suspected by Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty. So in order to dispel Li Yu's suspicion, Han Xizai feasted and had fun all day long and stayed up all night!
"Han Xizai's Night Banquet" is a painting of one of Han Xizai's many banquets. The painter Gu Hongzhong, as a spy sent by Li Yu to spy on Han Xizai, painted it for Li Yu to see!
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At another banquet, a guest may have drunk too much. He saw that Han Xizai’s concubine was too beautiful, and it was really useless.
I couldn't bear it, so I quietly found a room to have a tryst with my concubine...
In fact, it is not a rare thing, because since Han Xizai held this banquet, such things have happened almost every day...
But this time was special, because this time Han Xizai happened to come in from outside and saw his guest and his concubine rolling together...
Although there is such a thing like concubine swap happening at this time, after all, it is mainstream and people still want to face it. This kind of thing is still not on the table. After all, the concubine is still someone else's woman, and my behavior is suspected of having an affair.
So when the guests saw Han Xizai, they were a little embarrassed and prepared to get dressed and go out.
Unexpectedly, Han Xizai took the initiative to close the door with a smile and said: "I'm sorry, please continue..."
Yes, this is one of the allusions that the prime minister can hold a boat in his belly...
Although it is a rare case, it does prove that although people these days also value concubines, they do not value them as much as wives, so even if they are given away, as long as they are willing, it is not a big deal in itself!
What's more, Lin Ruhai wasn't given away, but dismissed. Jia Jing was just secretly helping to build a bridge to see if she could find a good family!
According to Jia Jing's intention, Lin Ruhai was dismissed directly without telling Lin Ruhai. If Daiyu couldn't bear it, she would secretly help contact her. But Daiyu didn't want to lie to her father, and she still wanted to tell her father the whereabouts of these people honestly.
, look at the father’s wishes.
Thinking about these things, Daiyu groaned with a terrible headache and hit Jia Jing's chest with her little head. Jia Jing said helplessly: "Even if you don't think about it anymore, the things that need to be solved must be solved after all."
Daiyu raised her head and gave Jia Jing a "severe" look: "I don't want to deal with this kind of thing anymore! Don't let me take care of this kind of thing anymore, okay..."
Jia Jing ignored Daiyu's coquettishness, smiled slightly awkwardly and turned her gaze away stiffly. If you really marry Daiyu and become a eldest wife, you will have many opportunities to deal with such things in the future...
Daiyu is obviously not good at dealing with this kind of thing. She can't bear to deal with those slaves. How can she "kill them with pain" when facing these young ladies who I feel pity for?
This is definitely good news for Jia Jing, but it is not really good news. After all, if a group of women does not have a highly respected lady who can suppress them, it is indeed easy for something to happen...
But if he can just suppress it, Jia Jing is unwilling. Although he won't do anything like everyone loves me equally, he doesn't want his woman to be afraid of his other woman!
Therefore, Daiyu's character is actually good, because Daiyu will never bully anyone. Even if she is unhappy, she also knows that she is unhappy with Jia Jing, so she will not do anything to them!
So Jia Jing is really a little entangled, but now is obviously not the time to be entangled in these matters. Jia Lian also came back at this time with greetings from the salt merchant's children.
So Jia Jing comforted Daiyu and asked her to tell Lin Ruhai about the matter as soon as possible, and he also went out.
The greeting card stated that she would be received on the boat. Jia Jing glanced at Jia Lian in surprise, and Jia Lian chuckled: "This is the largest boat in Yangzhou City, Jinghu Water Sky. I heard that the background is very hard, even I just
I’ve heard that I didn’t dare to go in. It seems that these guys have really spent a lot of money!”
The corner of Jia Jing's mouth twitched. No wonder this guy was so secretive inside. He deliberately blocked her even when she wanted to open it. She said she had to go out and take a look... It turns out there is such a thing!
Looking at Jia Lian's arrogant look, Jia Jing estimates that Jia Lian is still proud of herself. How about it? I am the best brother, am I? I take you to such a place to spend money, and I also cover you in front of Sister Lin!
Jia Jing shook her head angrily. With Daiyu's ice and snow intelligence, she must have guessed a little bit, but she was too lazy to talk to Jia Lian. It was also because of her trust in Jia Jing that she didn't say anything!
Otherwise, if Daiyu is really acting petty, Jia Lian still wants to bring Jia Jing out? Daiyu just knows that Jia Jing is doing business, and out of trust in Jia Jing's character, she knows that Jia Jing treats those women.
There's nothing interesting about it, otherwise with Daiyu's temperament, it would be strange if she didn't become jealous!
Jia Lian led the way, and Jia Jing led his soldiers towards Jinghu Shuitian. Along the way, Jia Lian enviously expressed to himself how awesome this so-called Jinghu Shuitian was. Even the Zhen family wanted to get a taste of it.
Can't do it!
Jia Jing doesn't know where Jia Lian heard the bragging or if there is such a thing. If there is such a thing, then the Zhen family's purpose is definitely not just for money. 80% of the so-called mirror
The water in the lake is very deep, and the Zhen family has no shame but has to take the initiative to do business in the streets to catch big fish!
But these have nothing to do with Jia Jing. Jia Jing doesn't care who is behind the so-called Jinghu Shuitian. There are only two things he wants to do, complete the tasks assigned to him by Emperor Yongxi and Lin Ruhai, and then return to God safely.
Beijing!
It's that simple!
The Jinghu Lake and the Sky are right on the Slender West Lake, so Jia Jing’s previous wish to visit the Slender West Lake came true inadvertently.
Jia Jing today only wore a pure white Taoist robe and a black scarf. She was shaking a fan in her hand and looked like a scholar. She just looked at the dozen or so fierce soldiers behind Jia Jing. No one thought that Jia Jing
Jing is just a poor scholar who comes forward and provokes her without opening his eyes!
Jia Jing looked at the scenery on the Slender West Lake leisurely and contentedly. She closed the folding fan in her hand and opened and closed the first leaf on the folding fan with her fingers from time to time. The wind in the early summer night blew the sleeves of Jia Jing's broad robe and the two ends of her square scarf.
The straps were also fluttering behind his head.
The shores of Slender West Lake are full of small vendors, and not all of them are men. There are also many women walking. In the north, when it gets dark, there are almost no people on the road. Especially in winter, it is basically after ten o'clock.
To the left and right, there are no cars on the road, let alone people.
For the south, ten o'clock is just when the nightlife begins!
Maybe this is a concept passed down from ancient times to the present. Anyway, Jia Jing saw the lively scene on Slender West Lake now. The lights are on all day long and the BMWs are fragrant. Basically, it is a scene that only appears during major festivals in the north!
Slender West Lake was filled with all kinds of laughter and music. There were still boats leaving the shore. The women on the boats were lying on the railings and looking down curiously.
"Hey! Little brother! Look up!"
All the men raised their heads and looked for this sweet voice, and Jia Jing was no exception. The women burst into laughter. The petite girl smiled and stretched out her white hands and laughed: "
I won! I won! Give me the money!"
The other women smiled and took out money from their arms to give her money. Then one of the girls threw a fragrant handkerchief at Jia Jing: "Little husband! Come up!"
Jia Jing smiled at the woman, and immediately the women burst out laughing again, all extending their hands to Jia Jing to beckon him up.
Jia Jing ignored them, and just smiled and rode forward. The men around him all looked at him with dark faces, "Fuck, he looks like a rabbit, what's the air..."
Even Jia Lian couldn't help but tut at Jia Jing: "Second brother, with his looks, he is really popular everywhere!"
Jia Jing smiled and said: "They just want to attract customers." Jia Lian said with a smile: "Second brother, don't you think this is a place where those vulgar fans gather? When you walk along this way, do you see anyone recruiting guests?"
Jia Jing was stunned when he heard this, and Jia Lian smiled and said: "Here, including some brothels in Shenjing, people don't take this route. Even people without status can't even get in! How can they take the initiative to solicit customers?
These servants are holding it!"
Jia Jing couldn't help blinking when she heard this, and Jia Lian smiled and said: "The second brother comes less, but when more come, he will become familiar with it."
Jia Jing smiled and said: "That's better." Jia Lian showed an expression that every man would understand and said: "I understand that Sister Lin is jealous, but can your second sister-in-law be so jealous? Don't worry.
Here, follow the second brother..."
Jia Jing just stared at Jia Lian silently, and Jia Lian's voice became smaller and smaller. After a while, Jia Lian laughed twice and said: "Here, here we are."
Jia Jing shook her head, then turned to look in the direction of Jia Lian's finger...
Different from ordinary painted boats, this Jinghu Water Sky alone occupies a very huge pier next to Slender West Lake. There is a building built outside the pier, blocking the spring light inside. The building sign has four big characters written with dragons and phoenixes: "Jinghu Water"
sky"!
Jia Lian whispered in Jia Jing's ear: "This building is Jinghu Shuitian. This painting boat is not an ordinary painting boat. When it was at the dock, it was just two buildings with a facade sandwiching the building and boat inside. After Xu Shi,
, the building in the middle will slowly leave the port, and no one can get off the ship. The ship will not dock until the next morning!"
Jia Lian said expectantly: "It is said that it is even more amazing up there. Every night is a different journey of spring dreams. That's why it is called Jinghu Lake Water Sky. It is just the moon in the flowers and water in the mirror. After one night, it is
Waking up from a dream..."
Jia Jing looked at Jia Lian's lustful expression with no expression on her face, and angrily hit him on the chest with the folding fan in her hand: "Wipe your saliva, virtue!"
Upon hearing this, Jia Lian hurriedly wiped the corners of his mouth, smiled, then pointed in front of him and said: "Look, they are coming!"
Jia Jing looked towards the door of the building, and sure enough she saw a lot of young people in brocade clothes. After seeing Jia Lian beside Jia Jing, everyone hurriedly came forward. Huang Shuang took the lead and bowed: "
I, the descendants of Yangzhou, have met Marquis Ning!"
Everyone also bowed and saluted. Jia Jing got off her horse and waved her hands, saying, "Get up."
Everyone then stood up, and then Huang Shuang stepped forward, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "It's an honor for us to be honored by Marquis Ning!"
Jia Jing nodded, then looked at Huang Shuang and said, "Who are you?" Huang Shuang hurriedly raised his hands and said, "I am Huang Shuang from the Huang family, this is Bai Yu from the Bai family, and this is from the Zheng family...
We, the descendants of Yangzhou, gathered here to meet you, Lord Marquis!"
