This time Jia Lian could finally laugh happily and said casually:
"Okay, let's meet then."
Xing'er quickly reminded in a low voice:
"Second Master, how can we let this old beggar see the old lady? She still doesn't know what kind of monster she wants to be."
Jia Lian glanced at Xing'er and whispered:
"Your second master, my trick is called 'Invite you to enter the urn and catch the turtle in the urn'. Do you understand? I am unlearned."
Xing'er took advantage of Jia Lian's happiness and retorted:
"Second Master, please don't keep scolding me for being 'uneducated'. I can read and read now. The two four-character words that Second Master just said are called 'idioms'. The first and last characters of the idioms are connected. This is called 'thimble and hemp'.
', is a game played by educated people, and I can do this."
Hey, this really surprised Jia Lian. This kid Xing'er even understands the name of this word-based Solitaire game, "Thimble Continues Ma"?
However, are there any idioms starting with turtle?
Jia Lian couldn't figure it out himself, so he laughed and said:
"Then give me another one."
Xing'er has a confident mind and a straight back:
"Seize the honor in the turtle!"
Jia Lian almost fell to the ground with his head!
"Turtle... seize the throne in a turtle?!
Why are you competing with a bastard for the first place? They call it ‘Aoli Duozun’, you idiot!”
"Boil it? Make porridge or medicine? Do you have to cook it when you are a bastard?"
Xing'er blinked, unable to turn his head for a moment.
"What is written in the book is 'Tortoise wins the honor'.
I was reading a storybook yesterday, and there was this sentence in "The Iron Palm Hero and the Money Dart". I asked Caiming about it, and he said that "Nian Nian" means "the turtle caught in the urn."
.
Damn it!
These guys are illiterate!
Jia Lian grinned in his heart - No matter how poor you are, you can't afford education.
That’s right, my school needs to be opened quickly, and I’m still the vice principal!
Jia Lian immediately made a decision in his mind. In addition to building the Grand View Garden, the money should also be used to build a branch of Heshan Academy.
After all, Heshan Academy is famous all over the world. If the building is not of high quality and elegant enough, among other things, it will be a failure for the great support Mr. Shuyou has given me in the past.
Yes, we need to buy land quickly and build an academy with a garden.
Alas, every inch of land in the capital is precious.
Alas - in addition to money, there is also the issue of time. It takes one year to build the Grand View Garden, and more than half a year to build the Heshan Academy branch, right?
Otherwise, just go out and spend more money and buy a ready-made large house. It also needs a garden, otherwise the book friend will not be used to it.
Wait!
A big house with a garden... Isn't this just a "big house with a garden"? It's ready-made!
I lost my family's residence and changed it directly to "Heshan Academy Branch". Is there any better thing than this that kills two birds with one stone?
.
"Haha!"
In the blink of an eye, Jia Lian solved a big problem invisible in his mind. He felt that he was smart and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
How could Xing'er know how many times Jia Lian had turned around in his mind at this moment and what ideas he had come up with? He just thought that Jia Lian was still laughing that he had misrecognized the word, and pouted in anger next to him: <
/p>
"When I couldn't read, the second master laughed at me for not knowing how to read. Now that I can read, the second master laughed at me for misreading. Isn't this a living thing?
In fact, it’s not difficult to read. It’s just that the educated people were so full that they just messed around and called the bastard a bastard. They also changed its name to ‘turtle’.
I finally got to know the word "turtle", and he said that "turtle" is made by "boiling". What's the point of being a bastard and having to compete for first place?"
Jia Lian smiled and said:
"Okay, okay, just do it. You win."
Turning around, he suddenly asked Laiji:
"Where is the secret vault your brother mentioned?"
.
Lai Er was unexpectedly asked by Jia Lian. He couldn't react for a moment and was stunned.
Aunt Lai hurriedly said:
"There is no secret vault! How can we, a slave family, have any secret vault?"
Xing'er stepped forward and took a look at Grandma Lai, who was a big mouth:
"Second Master didn't ask you!"
Aunt Lai was so slapped by this mouth that she fell to the ground.
Xing'er was about to turn around when he heard Tietou'er's apprentice "Little Hammer" reminding him:
"Why don't you make a couple? Otherwise, she won't feel at ease."
Xing'er suddenly realized:
"That makes sense!"
He quickly helped up Grandma Lai, gave her a big mouth with her backhand, and said with ridicule:
"One side of the face was slapped, but the other side was not. The one who was not slapped on the other side should blame me for being biased."
.
Lai Er was timid to begin with, and seeing Jia Lian's "Smiling Yama" demeanor, he knew that nothing could be done to fight him. In addition, at this time, he saw that his mother was so partial to Lai Da's son Lai Shangrong, but he never changed his mind from the beginning.
In the end, he never cared about the life and death of himself and his son Lai Shangning, feeling both fear and hatred in his heart.
At this time, Ting Xing'er said the word "partiality" while spanking Aunt Lai. She had mixed feelings in her heart and suddenly burst into tears:
"Second Master Lian, I tell the truth...
The secret vault is on the first floor of the bank, in the wall facing the entrance. It is a double wall. There is a mechanism in the eighth brick of the seventh row. When you open it, you will see a secret door inside. Use three keys to open it.
It can be opened, and inside are all the things my mother brought out bit by bit from the house when she was serving the old lady.
I heard that at that time, the emperor would reward things every now and then, and the princes and nobles would always send things. The big things were all stored in the warehouse and filed away, and there were many small things that were not counted at all."
"Raiji!"
The disheveled Grandma Lai screamed like crazy.
"You are trying to ruin our Lai family!"
Laiji is completely depressed:
"Mom - why don't you understand? I'm not the one who ruined the Lai family..."
.
All the carriages and horses of the Jia family were dispatched, not to mention the mule and ox-carts that usually hauled goods, and the canopy carts that the maids and women rode, even Mrs. Xing's Cuiyiqing oil cart, and the Cuigaizhu that the ladies usually rode
Both the Yingbabao chariot and the Zhulunhua chariot were dispatched.
A large number of large cars took up a street, and the leading car was out of sight. There were still cars being loaded in front of Laizhai.
.
"It's incredible! Mr. Lian has completely wiped out everyone!"
This news was even more shocking than "lighting a firecracker as big as a house". Before Jia Lian returned to Rongguo Mansion, everyone in the Jia family was already in a panic.
For a time, everyone was running around and muttering, and the Jia family was in chaos.
After Grandma Lai left, Mother Jia sent Sister Feng back to have a rest. After that, she sat in the room in a daze without seeing anyone.
At this time, after hearing the news from the little girl, he just nodded and said "I understand" and sent the little girl away, still speechless for a long time.
Finally, Jia Mu sighed:
"Yuanyang, I'm old. Sometimes, I get confused from time to time. I don't know whether I am right or wrong."
Yuanyang knew that Jia Mu was feeling uneasy, so she quickly apologized and said with a smile:
"What did the old lady say? If the old lady is confused, what will our Jia family do?"
A wry smile appeared on the corner of Jia Mu's mouth:
"I would rather I could continue to be confused and just enjoy myself until I die.
It just so happens that I am old and have no strength, but I understand this better than my sons and daughters-in-law. I watch helplessly as the big ship of the Jia family sinks little by little. Even if I worry about these children and grandchildren, I am powerless. It is really uncomfortable.
Yes.
At this point, suddenly a capable Lian Er appears among the grandchildren, and I can only count on him..."
Just as I was talking about this, I heard someone coming from outside to report:
"Second Master Lian is here and wants to congratulate the old lady."
