Chapter 224: Careful inspection and inquiry about his ambitions
After listening to Jia Yun's complaint, Jia Lan couldn't help but pursed his lips, showing a slightly speechless expression.
Even he had to admit that Jia Yun was really unlucky.
Perhaps it is due to the butterfly effect of Jia Lan. The plot of the drunken King Kong and the righteous hero in the original novel did not happen. Jia Yun was unable to borrow money from Ni Er. His uncle Bu Shiren, as the name suggests, was naturally free of money.
.
Therefore, when the Grand View Garden was being built, even though Jia Yun later thought of some ways to curry favor with Wang Xifeng, she was not able to get any good jobs in the end.
But at least I got some money along the way.
With the money, Jia Yun started some small businesses, and her income was pretty good at first. However, as her career improved, Jia Yun suffered a huge setback.
One day, Jia Yun ran into Ni Er on the street, and the two met happily.
Seeing Ni Er starting a horse racing business, Jia Yun thought about it and bought a good horse from Liaodong through Ni Er's relationship. She carefully brought it back to Shenjing and was about to sell it, but unexpectedly she ran into a scam.
.
A man in rich clothes came to Jia Yun with a boy and a baggage. He said he wanted to buy a horse. The price was almost negotiated. The other party offered to try riding a horse. Jia Yun saw that the other party spoke well and nodded in agreement.
.
After half an hour, Jia Yun saw that the other party had not returned, and she suddenly felt something bad. When she talked to the boy, she suddenly found that the boy had a completely different accent from the horse buyer. She was shocked and asked quickly, and the boy said that he was halfway there.
Hired.
The baggage in the boy's hand was not filled with silver, but with rubble.
At this time, Jia Yunfang realized that something was wrong and hurriedly chased him out.
I walked a street and came to a silk and satin shop. I found that my horse was tied in front of the shop. But as soon as I walked up, I was caught by the shopkeeper and was almost turned and sent to the government.
It turned out that the person who bought the horse came to the silk and satin shop and said he wanted to buy some silk and satin, and offered the horse as a pledge. Seeing that it was obviously a good horse, the owner did not doubt him and asked him to take away several silk satins, including the most expensive one.
There are fifty taels of fragrant cloud yarn.
The person who committed the fraud could not be found, but the two victims started to make a fuss. Even after listening to it for a while, it was difficult to explain.
In the end, each player made a fifty-fifty strike, with the owner of the silk and satin shop bearing half, and Jia Yun compensating the other half.
Jia Yun had no cash, so she had to sell the horse at a low price. In the end, she lost all her principal.
Fortunately for him, he met Ni Er again not long after, and he was taken to the horse shop to help settle the accounts, and his life just went on again.
After hearing Jia Yun's experience, Jia Lan used his spiritual sense to carefully observe Jia Yun's aura.
Unlike many frustrated people that Jia Lan has seen in the past, Jia Yun's own aura is still clear except for being a little depressed.
This is a calm person.
Jia Lan thought silently in his heart.
"Actually, Mr. Yun is very calm and would not engage in such a business." Ni Er said at this time, "The main reason is that Mr. Yun's mother is seriously ill and needs a sum of money for medicine. His uncle is really...
...Sigh..."
"Is the fifth sister-in-law in serious health condition?" Jia Lan asked with concern.
"Brother Lan, please trouble me." Jia Yun bowed her hands towards Ni Er, "Thanks to Brother Ni's generous help, he asked the doctor to prescribe medicine in time, and after taking it for a while, he has recovered well."
Jia Lan nodded: "Illness is gone, but you still need to pay more attention to taking care of your body."
After a pause, he praised: "As the saying goes, 'A filial son will always be like you'. Brother Yun is a filial son. God is grateful and will definitely bless you."
Filial piety is a beautiful virtue no matter in any era.
I no longer have any doubts about Jia Yun and Jia Lan.
The next thing is...
"Brother Yun." Jia Lan suddenly asked: "You want to find something with me. Do you want to be alone and do something on your own? Or do you want to be a helper beside me or Brother Ni?"
Suddenly, Jia Lan's question caught Jia Yun off guard.
The smart Jia Yun noticed that Jia Lan's question seemed to have a deeper meaning, which made him silent for a while.
Jia Lan didn't urge him, he just smiled.
On the contrary, Ni Er sweated unconsciously. He knew that Jialan was serious about it now.
For this reason, he felt happy and worried at the same time.
He was happy that Jia Yun got Jia Lan's approval, but he was worried that even he himself did not expect that Jia Lan would value Jia Yun so much.
At this time, Jia Yun was in the middle of a battle between heaven and man. To be fair, he didn't want to blurt out a sentence: "A man is born between heaven and earth, and he should set up a career!"
But the reality told him that having a lot of passion for many things would not actually help.
Unlike her mother, who was a bit angry and didn't want to curry favor with Wang Xifeng, Jia Yun has a clear understanding of worldly affairs.
All things in the world are interconnected and cause and effect each other.
Even if I have been away from the core of the Rongguo Mansion, the influence of the Jia family of the Rongguo Mansion exists at any time and anywhere.
If he had betrayed his horse and been deceived by others, if he had not carried the name of the upright great-great-grandson of Rongguo Mansion, then the silk satin would not only be a matter of half compensation, but also a question of whether he could get out of the government prison.
Precisely because of the title of Rong Guofu, that mean uncle would always encourage him to flatter his master and make a fortune in his career.
But in this world, how can it be so easy to achieve a career?
Let's just say that uncle Bu Shiren, despite his hard heart, after decades of hard work, not only did he just own a shop, but he also had to partner with a group of people. The place he lived in was not much better than a thatched house. Even Jia Yun had to spend time in Yangchun.
Even in front of me, my aunt looked down upon me.
As she thought about it, Jia Yun's thoughts became clearer and clearer.
After a moment, he straightened his face and said seriously to Jia Lan: "Brother Lang, I have the heart to do something in my career, but I also know that my talents are not enough. I don't seek wealth, I just want a place to live in peace.
.
As the saying goes, "It's good to enjoy the shade under a big tree." It means Brother Ni has such a big job now. Isn't it also thanks to you, Brother Lang?
I thought that if I could learn something from you, it would be my lifelong blessing.
This way, my mother feels at ease."
Jia Yun's words were very sincere, and Jia Lan couldn't help but nod after hearing this, and asked again: "What do you think the situation in Rongguo Mansion is like today, is it good or bad?"
"This..." Jia Yun hesitated slightly. This topic is too big, and some words are hard to say.
Jia Lan smiled and said: "There are only three of you and me here, you can say whatever you want."
"In that case..." Jia Yun organized her words and began to speak.
Jia Lan's face became more and more satisfied. He already had a good impression of the rare good people in the book. Now after listening to it, Jia Yun has two qualities that are very rare.
The first is sobriety and the second is pragmatism.
Although some ideas are not quite consistent, Jia Yun is rarely consistent with Jia Lan when it comes to looking at the future of the Jia family.
