You can play with it any way you like, just one piece, you can’t bring people home, and you can’t bring pregnant ladies home.
This is Jia Liu's bottom line.
For this bottom line, he had to give the money he had earned through hard work to Daquan to spend freely.
Heartbroken, very heartbroken.
What might be done?
I can only comfort myself that this is an expression of filial piety.
In the Qing Dynasty, the country was governed by filial piety.
To a certain extent, it can be understood that giving money to my father to go to prostitutes was for the sake of the Qing Dynasty.
Here comes the annoying thing.
Daquan actually made a "poof" sound, put some saliva on his index finger in front of his son, held the banknotes in his left hand, and counted them one by one with his right hand.
The movements are similar to Jia Liu’s when counting money.
Daquan became more and more excited as he counted, and his pupils got bigger and bigger as he counted. Finally, he looked at his son in disbelief and was extremely shocked: "Good guy, more than six thousand taels, you are really greedy!"
What is greed?
Jia Liu was not happy to hear it because other people's greed was different from his.
What others call corruption is what he calls an advance or a borrowing.
of different nature.
Daquan then went on to praise his son who was able to be greedy: "If you are able to be greedy and not greedy for money when you are an official, what kind of work would you do as a sub-officer? If your old man was willing to be greedy back then, how could our family be so miserable?"
After saying that, Daquan put a thick stack of banknotes into his pocket and waved his hand to his son: "Go and do your work, dad has to do something."
"You died on Aunt Zhao's belly. I asked my son to carry you back."
Jia Liu was not angry and was too lazy to answer Daquan.
Daquan said "Hey" and walked away without any anger at all. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around, smiled triumphantly at his son, and said with a grin: "Otherwise, how could you give me money so happily?"
"..."
Jia Liu was dumbfounded, realizing that he was most likely being tricked by Daquan.
Shuan Zhu, who came back from buying books, was very sure that the master's friends were surnamed Zhang, Wang, Sun, but not Zhao.
"Oh shit!"
Jia Liu gritted his teeth, the old guy was really playing the window theory with him.
Cunning and cunning.
If it weren't for the fact that he was thinking about the loss of his father Ding You, which delayed his service to the Qing Dynasty and affected progress, he really wished he could get some I love a piece of firewood, Qiyunhehuan powder, etc. to pay homage to the old guy, and then roll up the tattered mat and bury it.
Burn ten or eight more virgins to express filial piety.
"Husband, what's wrong? Did your father-in-law come back just now?"
When Ruxiu came over, she was very surprised to see her husband's expression of hatred.
"nothing,"
Jia Liu saw Ruxiu looking like she was going out and asked her where she was going.
"I was just about to tell you,"
Ruxiu wanted Raja Liu to go to the outer city to see the six shops given to her by her brother.
Jia Liu had nothing to do, so he went with Ruxiu, and by the way, he gave Ruxiu the contract of the antique shop sent by shopkeeper Quinni Chalu.
The male is in charge outside, and the female is in charge at home. Jia Liu is in charge of the big things in the house, and naturally Ruxiu, the female head, is responsible for the small things.
Ruxiu was curious and asked where the shop came from.
Jia Liu didn't dare to name the Minister of Etiquette who was extorting money, so he said it was a wedding gift given to him by Mr. Fu Sheng'a, the Vice-Capital of Manchuria in Jinchuan.
As for why the rich man sent him a shop as a congratulatory gift, it was of course because he had saved his life.
Ruxiu did not doubt this, because it was the rich man who escaped who reported her husband's heroic deeds to the court, and that was how the emperor awarded Batulu, and she was married to the Prince of Xin.
Speaking of which, I have to thank the rich man.
Before I got married, my sister-in-law said that it doesn’t matter what you look like, the key is that you can’t be useless, then you will really be a widow.
Fortunately, it is very useful.
If he hadn't been allowed to touch him, he might have been Tulupi.
Three of the six shops where my brother-in-law was married were outside Xuanwu Gate, two were outside Chongwen Gate, and one was on the Yongding Gate side.
There are good and bad locations.
There are two silk and satin shops, a pawn shop, a restaurant, a shop selling dongzhu, and a shop selling rice.
Nominally, these six stores belong to Ruxiu, but they are still under the name of Xinwangfu, and the management is also done by people from Xinwangfu. However, all the annual profits are allocated to Ruxiu. The transfer of ownership will have to wait until Ruxiu gives birth to a child.
Only later.
Moreover, the property that Ruxiu brought from her natal family actually had nothing to do with Jia Liu. If he coaxed her well, his wife would give him money to use. If he coaxed her badly, he would not even think about a cent of his wife's money.
I accompanied Ruxiu from house to house, and finally went to my antique shop. The shopkeeper Lu was not there, and a few clerks were busy there. Xu was notified that the owner had changed people, and the clerks all gave gifts to the new owner and his wife.
Jia Liu took a look. When he came last time, there were many customers in the store, but now it was very deserted.
If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to figure out the reason.
The provincial examination is over.
Therefore, the importance of this antique shop to Mr. Kui has become extremely low, and it can be used as a substitute for Jia Liu.
Jia Liu didn't have much in Beijing, and this store was losing money for him. Besides, he didn't know anything about antiques, so this store was very popular.
So she told Ruxiu that it would be better to find someone to take over the shop, or rent it, and get some cleaning done.
Ruxiu didn't understand much either, so she left the matter to Manager Song Er, who had come to dowry her.
The full name of Song Er's manager is Song Jinzhong. He is not a eunuch, but he has been the boss of Prince Xin's Palace for generations. His nature in the Jia family is equivalent to that the human relations are still in Prince Xin's Palace, but the work unit is outsourced to the Jia family.
To put it bluntly, Song Jinzhong and the others only listen to Jia Liu's wife, but they don't listen to their uncle.
Of course, if my uncle is also very good, they will definitely listen.
After a day of shopping, Jia Liu's legs were a little sore when he returned home. Shopping with his wife is the greatest pain for a man.
Of course, it’s another thing to accompany a woman who is not your wife, especially one who has not succeeded.
In the evening, shopkeeper Lu came and informed Mr. Jia Liukuni that he had agreed to submit a letter requesting the reinstatement of the Sichuan governorship.
Jia Liu was also happy and asked Shuan Zhu to bring back half a cart of Master Kui's poems he bought in the morning to shopkeeper Lu.
As for whether Jia Shiwei still has something on his hands, that is something both parties know very well, and there is no need to reveal it.
The Minister of Rites, Man Shilang, announced that the governor of Sichuan would be reinstated. The next step was for the old man to consider the feasibility of reinstating the governor of Sichuan from all angles and then facilitate the matter.
Jia Liu, the facilitator candidate, can only point to He Shen.
But before that, he had to overthrow the second-in-command in Sichuan Province, Chief Minister Qian Jun.
President Li said that Mr. Qian Jun was from Jiangsu and was born in Juren. He had previously served as an inspector in Shaanxi and was recommended by Fulhun, the governor of Sichuan.
Therefore, if you want Chief Minister Qian to get out and let Chairman Li, who is next in line, be promoted to governor of Sichuan as he wishes, in addition to Chairman Li's major achievements in breaking through the siege in Jinchuan, you also need to find a way to get Fulehun to recommend Chairman Li instead of Qian Jun.
.
After pondering in the study for a while, Jia Liu wrote to the two Manchu deputy governors, Bo Qing'e and Fu Sheng'a, respectively, asking them to do the work of Fulhun, the governor of Sichuan.
The Minister of Rites, Mr. Kui, wrote a letter, the imperial favor and the bodyguards facilitated it, and the Governor of Sichuan recommended it. With the joint efforts of the three parties, it was basically possible to ensure that Chairman Li would be promoted to the position of Governor of Sichuan.
Jia Liu himself could not be idle, he also had to contribute to the upcoming third war to pacify Jinchuan.
So, he wrote an excerpt of "Respectfully Inviting Jinchuan to Military Training".
He is a third-grade imperial guard and is qualified to give the old man some advice.
In this excerpt, based on what he saw and heard on the Jinchuan front line, Jia Liu boldly pointed out the "guerrilla" tactics used by the bandits, hoping that the court would take this matter seriously and deploy capable troops to fight guerrillas.
After writing this secret document of about a thousand words, Jia Liu went back to sleep. The next day, wearing a yellow mandarin and wearing a pair of flower feathers, he first went to the General Affairs Department to hand in the document, and then went directly to the guard office to formally report it. He started working on it. It’s a day at work to clear the door.
