Chapter 63 The Red Chamber (63)

Red Mansion(63)

No one could have imagined that the concubine of the Zhen family passed away. She had not even passed her filial piety period, and the emperor sent people to raid the Zhen family. What kind of family the Zhen family is, and how powerful it is in Jiangnan. It is far beyond the reach of the Jia family.

.

Jia Mu sat on the couch, but her hands and feet were numb. Looking at Mrs. Wang, who still looked like a Bodhisattva, she asked, "How are you doing, my queen?"

"Everything is fine." There was a slight smile on Mrs. Wang's lips, and even though it disappeared immediately, Mother Jia still saw the clues.

"What happened?" Jia Mu snorted and asked coldly, "Please tell me carefully, what happened to my empress."

Mrs. Wang was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Jia Mu's eyes were really sharp, she nodded and whispered: "My queen's body seems to be uncoordinated, as if she is happy. It's just that the time is still short, so I can't do it accurately."

However, Jia Mu's face did not relax, and she said: "You are so confused. This is still the period of national filial piety. It is hard to say whether the child is pregnant or not."

Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "The old lady is too worried. She is the concubine and not the queen mother. The emperor pays so much attention to the concubine's death, maybe it is paralyzing the Zhen family so that he can take advantage of it."

However, Jia Mu's heart sank and she said, "Did your Majesty use tricks?"

Mrs. Wang looked a little unnatural, avoided Jia Mu's eyes, and said after a long time: "There is no other way."

Jia Mu closed her eyes, feeling weak for a while.

At this time, Lin Yutong was checking the accounts with the shopkeeper and heard him say: "The Jia family is really afraid that they won't be able to survive these days. In just this year, they pawned our things and built a warehouse.

"As he spoke, he sighed and said, "These things have probably almost moved the Jia family."

"Yeah, I can't hold it anymore." Lin Yutong asked in a low voice: "Are there any other discoveries?"

"The second wife of the Jia family sent people to sell the Jia family's Zhuangzi land in Jinling, as if they were in a hurry to collect money." The shopkeeper said: "You know, for my sake, the news in Jiangnan,

We always know how much faster we are than others. Wouldn’t it be too eye-catching to eat even this?”

"Then go tell Jing Haibo. Many of his soldiers may not have much property. If you want to buy good land in the capital or in the south of the Yangtze River, depending on everyone's ability, it will be dozens or hundreds of acres.

. Where can I meet Kexin? This is an opportunity. It is always possible to let dozens of them share a farm. The Jia family was also famous in the past, and the fields are naturally better than those of other families. "

The shopkeeper responded, nodded and left.

However, Lin Yutong didn't know that due to her unintentional move, everyone in the Jinghaibo Mansion was very fond of her. Wen Tianfang was the leader of the army, and most of the people in the manor were not slaves, but generals.

When Wen Tianfang heard what the shopkeeper said, he was stunned for a moment. He had never thought about finding a way to buy property for his subordinates. On weekdays, he would also be rewarded with money. In his opinion, it is not easy to buy property with money.

. But now that I think about it, I feel that I was a little negligent. After asking again, I found out that these people did not build their village in Dabei, but they built a shop in a small town. The little money they had was not enough for anything. Moreover,

Good places and fields are scarce resources, and they can get them wherever they can.

Wen Tianfang pondered for a moment and asked the housekeeper to pass on the news. If there is anything you want, just tell him and he can send someone to do it. Don't underestimate these dozens of acres of land, which is often the foundation of a family's life.

As a result, as soon as the news spread, even the lowest group of soldiers were alarmed. Three acres and five acres were gathered together.

The housekeeper reported helplessly: "Such a share, the little things from the Jia family are really not enough."

Wen Tianfang frowned and said: "How do they manage these three to five acres? Jiangnan is not close to the capital."

"We are all brothers. We work in a team of dozens of people and manage the fields together. We send one person there twice a year, so that's enough." The housekeeper smiled and said, "Thankfully Miss Lin is thinking of us. Everyone below is grateful.

."

Wen Tianfang also laughed: "The girl is attentive and can think of this. It is better to solve some practical difficulties for the people below than anything else. You will also be rewarded in the future. Again, you can spread the word. This is a good thing. Let's join in.

It's okay, but just don't end up having a dispute over this."

"Yes." The butler responded, then stepped back with a smile.

Wen Tianfang took out a small box from the drawer and put it in his arms before getting up and planning to go to Lin's house.

Lin Yutong was stunned for a moment when he heard that Wen Tianfang had arrived. Lin Ruhai was still in the palace and might not be able to come back tonight. He would probably have to sleep in the class room. Why did Lin Yuyang and Mr. Zhang go to visit outside the city?

He is a great scholar, and his return date is uncertain. Wen Tianfang knows all these things, so why did he come to visit him in person?

Is there something big that can't be done?

Lin Yutong stood up hurriedly and took the girl to the flower hall.

"Uncle." Lin Yutong bowed slightly and said, "But there is something important."

Wen Tianfang was stunned. There was nothing important. He just wanted to see her. When he asked this question, he didn't know what to say.

He smiled and said: "You sent someone to talk about the Jia family today, and then I remembered that I might want to tell you something. It's not easy to ask others to tell you about this matter, so I came here in person."

Lin Yutong nodded and said with a smile: "Then sit down and talk."

Wen Tianfang whispered: "Then the wife of the Jia family in the palace is pregnant. Do you know about this?"

Lin Yutong's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but think of "The pomegranate flower blooms in the palace". The pomegranate symbolizes many children, and the pomegranate flower means that the pomegranate bloomed, but only the flowers bloomed without fruit, which proved that the child would not be born.

And Yuanchun's death is probably not far away.

Wen Tianfang saw Lin Yutong's expression change and knew that she had seen the danger inside. He whispered: "This Jia Yuanchun has also lost his mind, and his methods are not very bright. Besides, things in the harem are not what they seem.

Simple. So..."

"Isn't it someone who took advantage of me?" Lin Yutong answered.

Wen Tianfang was surprised for a moment. He had never revealed what he meant in this regard. He just didn't know where the girl saw it. He nodded and said, "My father-in-law and I didn't dare to participate, but she was bolder. This

There were many things involved in it, including several princes and the emperor's princes. I don't know whose advice she listened to, and her idea was directed at the emperor, and she dared to use medicine. She just wanted to be favored and have children, but because of this the emperor was detained.

In her palace, she was almost assassinated. Why did the old concubine of the Zhen family go there? There is a shadow of the Zhen family in it. Maybe the emperor wanted to influence the Zhen family and let them know, so he struck first.

."

"I see." Lin Yutong asked: "In that case, the month of Jia Yuanchun's pregnancy was also concealed. The emperor didn't want these things to be connected with the old concubine's death. But it's not right, the old concubine.

Isn’t the concubine’s son, Prince Yi Zhong, already in the circle of the Supreme Emperor?”

"But Prince Yi Zhong still has a son. And this son is very fond of the Emperor. Otherwise, why would the Zhen family be able to dance around for so many years?" Wen Tianfang said with a smile. Come to think of it, this girl rarely asked Lin Ruhai about matters in the court.

Lin Yutong was a little stunned.

She remembered the next sentence of "The pomegranate blossoms bloom in the palace", "Three springs are competing for the first spring scene, tigers and tigers meet and return to the big dream."

The tiger is a ferocious beast, and the tiger is also a ferocious beast. When a tiger and a tiger meet, isn't it a fight?

"I understand." Lin Yutong nodded, "As long as you and father are not involved here, it doesn't matter much. Others are irrelevant."

Wen Tianfang coughed and said, "We are measured and can't make any mistakes. Just don't worry." After saying that, he took out a box from his arms and put it on the table and pushed it in front of Lin Yutong, "This is my name.

If someone buys it, if you like it, keep it yourself."

Lin Yutong realized belatedly that Wen Tianfang came here not to talk about Jia Yuanchun's affairs at all. Jia Yuanchun's affairs had nothing to do with the Lin family. He must be very clear about the Lin family's attitude towards the Jia family. So, he just came here

Seeing herself, she gave him something by the way. Thinking of this, her face showed a bit of surprise. She glanced at Wen Tianfang in surprise.

Seeing that Tianfang coughed in embarrassment, she couldn't help but chuckle. She reached out to take the box, opened it, and then couldn't help but gasped, "This is a diamond."

White, pink, and yellow, it's really hard for him to collect so many. Although the polishing is not very good with today's technology, it does not hinder its brilliance.

"I see you don't like gold and silver jewelry. I found this. If you like it, ask someone to set it on jewelry and play with it. This is not worth much silver. It was brought back from overseas by maritime merchants. It is made of our porcelain and

You can get a lot for silk and satin." Wen Tianfang saw that Lin Yutong knew this thing and explained. As for how Lin Yutong knew this thing, he didn't ask anything.

"If you like it, why don't you like it?" Lin Yutong gently closed the box and said, "Thank you."

Wen Tianfang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that she really liked her. He had been talking in one place for so long today, but he couldn't delay any longer. He stood up and said goodbye.

Lin Yutong sent him to the second door and then sent the Lin family manager to send him out.

Wen Tianfang left Lin's house and then turned out of the alley. He saw someone hiding in the alley next to him. Wen Tianfang didn't even need to ask him to tell him. His entourage went to check. After a while, he came back and reported in a low voice: "Yes."

Jia Baoyu from the Jia family doesn't know what to do around the Lin family. He comes here every once in a while. Since he didn't do anything extraordinary, our patrolmen didn't bother him. Don't worry, he wants to get close to the Lin family.

unable."

Jia Baoyu watched Wen Tianfang and his party walking away, then frowned and asked Mingyan, "Didn't you say that before we get married, we can't meet each other even after we get engaged? How come Jing Haibo can get in?"

"If you want to see Mr. Lin Gu and Mr. Lin Jiabiao, you can go in." Mingyan quickly smiled and said: "Jing Haibo has already seen us just now. It's not good to stay any longer, so we should go back first." But not here.

If you yell about getting engaged, if the Lin family finds out, they will have to knock on their door.

"I don't know if Sister Lin's rouge has been used up. I can't deliver the new ones I made. Do you know where Zicuckoo is now? Can't you pass it in if you find her?" Jia Bao suddenly asked.

Mingyan felt like crying and said, "I don't know where Zicuckoo was sent by Mr. Lin. Second Master, don't look for me anymore. If you let the Lin family know, I'm afraid they will regret it again."

"Idiot, it's a matter of course that your parents have ordered a matchmaker. If I hear you say these bastard words again, I won't be polite." Jia Baoyu stamped her feet.

After all, he returned home unwillingly. Although the Jia family's garden was lush with vegetation, it was no longer as prosperous as it was at the beginning. The little girls in the garden were running around and playing, unaware of the troubles outside. Baoyu

He sighed and saw Xue Baochai walking towards him. He quickly stopped and said, "Where is Sister Bao going? Why is she alone outside..."

"It's just that the third sister invited me, and we went over to chat for a while." Xue Baochai saw Jia Baoyu's clothes and said, "But he went out." Otherwise, he would not be able to dress so neatly.

"Yes! I just have nothing to do and am just going out for a walk." After Jia Baoyu finished speaking, the attacker came to pick him up again. He was in this house, as if he was being led by someone, and he was not free at all.

Xue Baochai also turned around and smiled, saying: "I have never seen anyone who is more attentive than Xi Ren."

There was no praise or blame in these words. Jia Baoyu snorted coldly, "If she doesn't have to be careful, I can feel more at ease."

Xue Baochai smiled, turned around and left without saying anything.

Xiren walked over with a smile and said, "Who was that just now? Why did you leave when you saw me coming?"

"Why ask if you know who it is?" Jia Baoyu sneered: "She is the only relative living at home now who dares not to avoid me. What else can you say?"

Xiren felt his face flush red, he pulled Jia Baoyu's sleeve and said, "After all, the second master only holds grudge against me for what happened to Miss Yun."

"Don't mention Sister Yun." Jia Baoyu threw the attacker's hand away and said, "Only you know how those words in the boudoir spread."

Xiren choked and said: "Where did the second master come back from, and who provoked him? You just want to vent your anger on me. Now that you have misunderstood me like this, what should I do? I have to hit you head-on. Second master

Can you believe it?"

"A really dead person is cleaner than a living person." After saying that, he just ignored the attacker and turned around to go into the yard.

Xiren saw Baoyu go away and stopped chasing him. He turned around and left the garden and went to Rongxi Hall. When Mrs. Wang heard that Xiren was coming, she frowned and asked her to come in.

"But what's wrong with Baoyu?" Mrs. Wang asked.

"Second Master has been going out a lot recently. I heard that he often hangs around the Lin family. But hiding it is not a long-term solution." Xiren looked at Mrs. Wang's expression and whispered, "I live in the garden, sir."

We can't help but ask the second master to move out of the garden. Firstly, the girls in the garden will be older. Secondly, after all, there are girls from relatives here."

"Who are you talking about, this girl from your relative's family?" Mrs. Wang snorted coldly and said, "Mind your own business, and you don't have to worry about others."

The only one who could talk was Xue Baochai. This made her a little unhappy. Besides, the affairs of the Lin family were not the talk of these talkative girls. Who can be blamed for the trouble now.

Xiren was heartbroken and did not dare to refute, so he quickly retreated.

"This girl is too big-hearted," Mrs. Wang said to Zhou Rui's family.

"Yes." Zhou Rui's family responded and said, "But it's time for the girl in the garden to tidy up her garden."

"Let's go and have a look in the garden." After all, Mrs. Wang didn't trust Jia Baoyu, so she couldn't feel at ease unless she saw with her own eyes.

Unexpectedly, when I first entered the garden, I met Mrs. Xing across from me.

"Where are you going, madam?" Mrs. Wang asked.

Mrs.

Mrs. Wang really didn't know, so she said with a smile: "I don't want to have such a happy event again." The matter between Xing Xiyan and Xue Biao did not hinder her, so there was nothing she was unhappy about.

As they talked, the two sisters walked into the garden. As they were walking, someone suddenly appeared in front of them. At first glance, they saw that it was not the silly elder sister who did menial work in the old lady's yard.

"This girl is so anxious and white-faced that she only cares about walking. It's shocking." Mrs. Xing said angrily.

Mrs. Wang was still covering her chest, and when she saw the silly elder sister, she kept giggling and said: "This girl is stupid."

The silly eldest sister then knelt down to say goodbye. Seeing that she was holding something in her hand, Zhou Rui's family didn't dare to cry out that the treasure was dirty and said, "You must have picked up the treasure. You are so careful."

The silly elder sister stood up and nodded, "Isn't it a treasure? The fairies are fighting." She said and handed it to Zhou Rui's family.

Zhou Rui's face changed after receiving it...(.)
