In "Let the Bullets Fly", Jiang Wen said it well: "Whoever wins, they help."
This is true for people on the street, and it is also true for people at home.
When they arrived at the gate of Jia's house, everyone dismounted. Jia Lian invited Wei Tongguang to come into the house to serve tea. Wei Tongguang cupped his hands and smiled:
"Master Jia, there is no need to be polite. The wind and rain will go as planned, and the future will be long."
Jia Lian also understood the meaning of this and smiled:
"I hope that with Mr. Wei's good words, the future will be bright and prosperous."
Among experts, one clicks from one point to the next.
In official dialogue, the most taboo thing is to speak too clearly.
You don’t understand? There’s nothing we can do about it, we don’t let laymen play - this is called the “hidden rule”.
A young boy from Jia's residence had already come up and took the tray containing Jia Lian's plain clothes from the young eunuch's hand.
The housekeeper Lai Da hurried up and wanted to give money to the young eunuch. The young eunuch had already received Wei Tongguang's order and refused to accept it. Seeing that Wei Tongguang and the guards were on their horses, he also hurriedly got on their horses and followed them all the way back to the palace.

.
When Lai Da saw Jia Lian's purple satin robe, he knew that he had received a reward, so he hurried forward to give him a reward and said with a smile:
"Second Master is finally back, and all the slaves have been waiting for it.
I know that when the second master leaves, he will definitely be rich and honored, and when he comes back, he will definitely give rewards to the younger ones."
Jia Lian accepted Lai Da's flattery and said with a smile:
"The monkey cubs are all really smart."
After that, he took out a fifty-tael silver note and threw it to Lai Da:
"Don't just keep this reward for yourself. Give some to the 'minions you've been waiting for' as I mentioned earlier."
Just as he was about to walk into the gate of the mansion, he turned around and looked at the crowd of people outside the gate. Thinking that many people were following him, he smiled again.
He took out a fifty-tael silver note and threw it to Lai Da:
"Go, change these fifty taels into big money, scatter them at the door, and let these people feel happy."
When everyone heard that big money was going to rain down from the sky, they all made a great noise and shouted:
"Ouch, Second Master Lian is going to throw money away!"
"Second Master Lian! Spread the rewards in our direction!"
"Second Master Lian, you will be a prince forever! Spread more here!"
There were thousands or hundreds of people crowded in front of the Rongguo Mansion. The people in front heard about the money first and started shouting loudly. When the people behind heard about it, they also rushed forward like crazy, making people jump on their backs in the commotion.
, shouting and screaming, so lively.
Jia Lian smiled, turned around and entered the house.
.
As soon as he stepped into the gate of Rongguo Mansion, he saw a maid wearing a crimson silk jacket, a green satin vest, and a white crepe silk scarf standing next to the door. She was smiling softly at Jia Lian:
"The old lady asked me to wait here for Mr. Lian."
It is the eldest maid Yuanyang who Jia Mu has never been able to leave.
Jia Lian didn't expect that Jia Mu would send a mandarin duck to wait for him at the gate, so he hurriedly smiled and said:
"I would rather have Sister Yuanyang wait for me here in person. My face is as high as the sky."
.
Although Yuanyang is just a domestic slave, his father Jin Cai has phlegm and his mother is deaf. They all stay in Jinling's old house and look after the house for Jia's family. His brother and sister-in-law are with him in the capital, but they have no future. Brother Jin Wenxiang is by Jia's mother's side.
The comprador and sister-in-law are the bosses of Jia Mu's side. But Yuanyang himself has become the person that the ancestors of the Jia family "cannot live without for a moment".
Not only that, even Jia Mu's personal money and belongings were kept by Yuanyang's side before she could rest assured. This shows that Jia Mu's trust in her even exceeds that of her descendants.
Because of this, as masters, Jia Lian and Sister Feng would not call Yuanyang by his name when they saw him, but would call him "Sister Yuanyang". After all, Yuanyang is to Jia's mother, Taijun Shi, just like the eunuchs in the palace are to the emperor.
Respecting the mandarin ducks is actually respecting our ancestor Jia Mu.
As the "personal secretary" of the top leader of the Jia family, Yuanyang is much more sensible and smarter than Liu Jin who was around Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty and Wei Zhongxian who was beside Emperor Xizong of the Ming Dynasty. She has never wielded power and has always been low-key in her actions, so she is very popular with everyone in the family.
respect.
.
Hearing Jia Lian say this, Yuanyang smiled softly and his cheeks turned slightly red:
"The old lady is wise and guessed a long time ago that Mr. Lian will be prosperous this time."
Yuanyang is not pretty, and even has a few freckles on her face, but her long black hair is very eye-catching, and the bun she pulls up is a full circle bigger than other people's hair. At least she can still be regarded as "yun-haired and gorgeous"
, with eight characters: "moth eyebrows and white teeth".
She was waiting for Jia Lian here on Jia Mu's orders, and she had thought about it for hundreds of times.
As a slave born at home, her future is limited to three things: marrying outside, being a servant, and being a concubine for her master.
With her current status in front of Jia Mu, it is impossible to marry outside the family, and it is not a good match to marry the housekeeper as a housekeeper. The only way is to become a concubine for the master.
Nowadays, the only ones Jia Mu can like are Baoyu and Jia Lian.
Firstly, Baoyu is young and studying, and secondly, he is not yet married, so it is not suitable to take a concubine in the house.
In this case, only rationing Jia Lian is a suitable destination.
Although the jealous Wang Xifeng is difficult to deal with, as long as Jia Mu speaks, there is nothing she can't do. Didn't she already send Qingwen to you? Didn't the "female overlord" Wang Xifeng not even dare to fart?
Although Yuanyang still doesn’t know the truth, he followed Jia Mu all the way today and saw Jia Mu’s panic when the eunuch from the palace delivered a letter; he chased her in the wind and snow to stop Qin’s coffin; and saw Jia Mu hearing that Jia Lian used the ancestral sword.
Yuanyang could also guess the sudden stability after splitting the coffin board. Jia Lian's move seemed absurd, but in fact it must have had a great impact on the Jia family.
Jia Mu specially asked herself to wait for Jia Lian here, could it be...
Yuanyang has been with Jia Mu for many years and has seen a lot of good things. When he saw the material of the clothes Jia Lian was wearing, he knew it was definitely something extraordinary, so he naturally took a higher look at it.
At this time, she led Jia Lian to Jia Mu's courtyard, her heart was filled with waves, and red clouds were rushing to her face, which was noticed by many servants in the house.
"Second Master, how big is the palace?"
Jia Lian was thinking about how to reply to Jia Mu, when Yuanyang suddenly asked and said with a smile:
"Compared with our home, the palace is naturally much bigger."
He answered casually, but he didn't know that just the word "our family" made Yuanyang's face blush even more.
.
As I was walking along, I bumped into Jia Huan and Jia Lan, running out like crazy. Several boys followed behind, and they were also out of breath.
When the two saw Jia Lian, they quickly stopped.
Jia Lian couldn't help but frown and reprimanded Jia Huan:
"It's so good, why are you running around like a wild horse?
If you don’t make progress, it’s just that you have no decency, but you’ve also brought good brother Lang down.”
(Jia Lan: I’m still young and I don’t understand. The author’s brother asked me to come and ask him for collections, recommendations, and support.
He said that if I was good, he would not let brother Jia Huan lead me astray.
But brother Jia Huan is very kind to me. He buys me sweets and takes me to gamble...)
