On Rongqing Hall.
The sisters did not come out, only Grandmother Jia, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue were entertaining guests.
In addition to Zhen Yuhuan, there are four nannies from Duke Zhao’s Mansion.
The gentle and quiet girl who was that day, saw her again today, has already tied up her hair and became a woman.
After Jia Qiang and Feng Jie'er came in one after another, Jia Mu said angrily: What are you discussing? It's been so late, and I'm lazy!
Zhen Yuhuan, who had already stood up when she saw Jia Qiang come in, greeted Jia Qiang Fuli and said: I haven’t seen you for a year, so I’m fine.
Jia Qiang waved his hand and said: My second aunt is a heretic. When I was passing by Huaiyin that day, I met with the wife of the Zhen family and received generous treatment and asked her to meet with family courtesy.This year, my second aunt went to Beijing to get married. I did not return on the happy day. I missed the auspicious day, and it was mine.I should have come to the door to visit and congratulate me in person, but later I had some small conflicts with Jiang Lin, which delayed it after a while, and I was worried that it would cause inconvenience to my second aunt when I came to the door rashly.Unexpectedly, I was ashamed to let my second aunt come to the door first.I hope that the second aunt will not mention the word "Master" for the sake of the past.
On that day, the wife of Zhen’s grandfather Li invited the Zhen family’s family members to meet and asked him to meet the Zhen sisters with the uncle and nephew.
Since he didn't retort that day, and now he has taken the initiative to change his words, he is a little different, so it doesn't matter if Jia Qiang recognizes the younger generation once.
Of course, Zhen Yuhuan is Zhen Yuhuan, and the Jiang family is Jiang family.
Zhen Yuhuan was a very wise man, and said with a gentle smile: If so, I would give up the name of aunt.My husband at home often praises Brother Qiang, saying that you are a young hero, and he also combines you and my husband. He always says that they are all younger generations, but he is far inferior to you.Since that's the case, Brother Qiang praised her sister.
Jia Qiang was kind and said with a smile: Since the second sister is reluctant to give a gift, then the aunt's words will naturally give up, just call her sister.As for Duke Zhao, would he praise me?Haha, he was afraid that he would scold me at home when he saw Tian'er?
Zhen Yuhuan hurriedly said: It's true that there is nothing like this. Although my ancestors often scold people at home, they praised you, Mr. Lin and Brother Qiang.
Jia Qiangquan took the letter and asked Zhen Yuhuan to sit back again, and said to Jia Mu: Second Aunt has fallen into the money, and she will not let anyone go if she doesn't give an explanation.I can't beat it...
Pooh!
Jia Mu smiled angrily: If there is a guest here, you are talking nonsense, please be careful!
Jia Qiang ignored it and said to Feng Jie'er: I'll hold a dinner today and get it done. When I went to Zhen's house that day, the lady almost took out the dragon liver and phoenix marrow to entertain me and Meimei Lin. I'll have a banquet today.Even though no matter how much you catch up, you can't catch up with the Zhen family, you have to do your best.
Zhen Yuhuan was busy and polite, and Feng Jie'er also smiled angrily, complaining loudly to Jia Mu and others: Ancestor and Madam, look, this is using me as a girl!Now Qiang'er is becoming more and more majestic!
Jia Mu smiled and said: If you point to someone to make money, don’t you have to listen to them?
Mrs. Wang said concerned: What kind of livelihood does Brother Qiang give you?
Jia Qiang looked at Feng Jie'er and said: You said Ah!
Feng Jie'er cursed in her heart, and said, "You mother, your damn!"
If this is said, I am afraid that I will be sent to the ancestral temple to worship Buddha by Jia Mu.
Therefore, he forced a smile and said: But he was still his silk cloth, and he was a second-hand cloth dealer. But it doesn’t matter. His products are good, and he can earn money.Old ladies and wives, wait. When I get rich at the end of the year, I will invite you as a big host!
Jia Mu said half-jokingly and half-seriously: Don’t treat that thing as a serious matter. Forget your duty, please be careful.
Feng Jie'er hurriedly said: How dare you?I didn't interfere at all... I didn't plan to let me take care of it, and I just said that I could bring me a fortune, but I asked me if I wanted someone.Old lady, guess which one he wants?
Upon hearing this, Jia Mu looked at Jia Qiang suspiciously and said: "I don't know, it's Ping'er's hoof?"
Feng Jie'er smiled and said: But it's not her!He dared to ask for it. Ping'er now takes Feng'er to help me take care of some trivial matters in the East Road Court and here. He is even busier than me every day. If he really wants her, where can I do it here?
Jia Qiang said: Let Lin Zhixiao’s family help you, there are so many people missing, how can there be so many things?I really lack a reliable and capable person. I originally wanted my aunt's cousin to go, but although my sister is also smart and smart, she still has fewer people in contact with, and she has to learn the rules in the circle of the decree lady again.I thought about it and gave up. I asked You Shi from our mansion and Sister Ping'er next to my second aunt to come forward to help me support the West Road Courtyard there.
Upon hearing this, Jia Mu thought about it and said: Discuss this matter again, please treat the second girl well.Our Jia family and Zhen family are both old relatives and family friends. You have also said that you have received the favor of someone else's wife that day. Today, you can invite this host.
Jia Qiang was speechless for a while and said: Why do you ask the host in the Western Prefecture and ask me to pay the money?
Jia Mu and others laughed and said: Who made you a rich man!
After a sneer, Jia Qiang sat down next to Zhen Yuhuan under the gaze of the four nannies of Duke Zhao's mansion, across a table and asked: Second sister, your old duke is truly scheming.When you turn around, I understand what he means, just let him feel at ease.
Everyone was confused by this. Jia Muqi said: What do you understand?
Jia Qiang said: The old man of the Jiang family...the old man sent the second sister to come, but did not ask Jiang Lin to send her off. He was telling me that the Jiang family had no intention of being an enemy of the Jia family, but he was not afraid of the Jia family, and he had no intention of having a close relationship with the Jia family.I want to let my second sister come, but I want to talk about the past. The Jiang family is over, so I have to see the attitude of our Jia family.
After hearing this, Jia Mu said: Since they have become relatives, what other knots can’t be solved? Of course it's all over!
The Duke of Zhao still has a Duke of State, and the next generation still inherits the Duke of State. In the past, there was no contact with the Jia family. There was a place where there was a grudge. He attacked Xue Pan and borrowed heavy armor once, which almost injured Daiyu.
For Jia Mu, how could she have made a feud with such a family for the sake of the Xue family and a misunderstanding?
Since the opposite side has given goodwill, the Jia family naturally has to continue.
Originally, Zhen Yuhuan didn't understand why the ancestor of Duke Zhao's mansion suddenly asked her to visit the Jia family, and she was still uneasy.
Now that he heard Jia Qiang's words, he suddenly realized and looked at Jia Qiang with gratitude.
As expected, Jia Qiang refused to let go and continued to make things difficult for Duke Zhao's mansion, then her life would be difficult...
The Jiang family scolded Jia Qiang in the Duke of Zhao's mansion and did not look like a human being, but was domineering like a demon king in the world.
Even the old Duke sent her to lower her head, which shows that it was obvious.
Zhen Yuhuan thought that Jia Qiang could easily let go of her hands.
And to achieve this goal, she would be able to handle the job after she went back...
Jia Qiang looked at her and smiled, and asked: Did Duke Zhao say anything else?
Zhen Yuhuan hurriedly said: I didn’t say anything else... By the way, there is another thing, but it’s not the matter of Duke Zhao’s mansion. Grandfather asked me if I had the chance, I could ask Brother Qiang about your Zhen family. I heard that the Ministry of Revenue has already sent three documents to the south to recover the loss...
When Jia Qiang heard this, he laughed and said: "The second sister doesn't have to worry about this." The deficits owed by the Zhen family were mostly owed by the Zhen family four times during the Emperor's southern tour.The deficit of millions of taels of silver is really terrifying.However, in the old year of Jingchu, the Emperor asked the Zhen family to take charge of the salt administration for several years, and used salt tax to remove most of the money.The remaining little thing is not difficult as long as the Zhen family is willing to repay it.
Of course, it's actually very difficult...
The Zhen family had already paid back the deficits with salt tax. Speaking of which, the Emperor treats the Zhen family very well.
But in the next 10 or 20 years, the Zhen family borrowed a large amount of silver from the Ministry of Revenue, causing huge deficits. These silvers were used to supplement the luxurious life of the Zhen family.
Zhen Yingjia is a famous Zhen Buddha in Jiangnan. Whenever he asks for other places, there is almost no time for people to return empty-handed.
Coupled with the Zhen family's pomp, every year, the gifts of each family are huge.
Today, the Zhen family has no power to turn the world back.
However, even if it is to fall, it will have to wait until the person who died in Jiuhua Palace.
So, the Zhen family still has a few glorious days...
Jia Qiang didn't intend to tell Zhen Yuhuan these things. First, the relationship was not that close, and second, even if it was said, what's the use?
After talking, Jia Qiang said to Jia Mu: Old lady, why not invite the sisters to come out and meet?When Lin Meimei and I were heading to Yangzhou, we passed by Huaiyin to pay homage to the Grandma of the Zhen family. The Grandma thought that the Jia family was a family friend and a relative, so we should be a good family...
Before she could finish her words, Jia Mu said annoyed: You not only assigned Brother Feng, but now I am also assigned.Is this too much for you?If you don't interrupt, their sisters will come out long ago.
As he said that, he asked Yuanyang, who was pursing his lips and laughing, to call him.
Jia Qiang didn't care, and smiled at Zhen Yuhuan: Look at how similar the Baoyu of the Jia family is to the Baoyu of the Zhen family!
Jia Mu smiled and said: How could such a coincidence be done?No matter how delicate the whole family and the children are, except for the disabled and very ugly faces, they all look the same neat, so there is nothing strange about it.
Jia Qiang smiled and said: Let the second sister meet later, and there will be a defense for you.
Soon after, Li Wan led the Jia sisters out of the West Warehouse.
Zhen Yuhuan's eyes immediately fell on Baoyu's face among her sisters. Although she was still a little bruised and swollen, she still jumped and covered her mouth and smiled: If Brother Qiang hadn't set up an ambush in advance, I just thought Baoyu came from home, how could it look like...
Jia Mu and others didn’t take it seriously. There are so many people in the world who are similar, so there is no need to be serious.
After the sisters met one by one, they chatted for a moment before Zhen Yuhuan got up and said goodbye.
Although Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others advised each other several times, Zhen Yuhuan only said that there were too many elders in the family and the rules were heavy, so it was difficult to eat outside alone, so I would come back next time.
Jia Qiang personally sent him out. After returning, he saw Jia Mu looking at him strangely and said: When talking about the Zhen family last time, didn’t you assert that the Zhen family would be defeated? Even Lian'er asked you to warn you, if you are far away from the Zhen family, what's the point today?
Feng Jie'er smiled and said: Qiang'er, please be careful, the second girl of the Zhen family is well, but that is the eldest grandmother of Duke Zhao's mansion.
Jia Qiang looked at her like a lunatic before turning back to Jia Mu: Now it is more conclusive that the Zhen family will be defeated.The Zhen family owed too much deficit to the Ministry of Revenue, as high as one million taels, and it is impossible to repay it.When the Supreme Emperor was there, he could still protect him in the presence of the Holy Madam.When it is time to be unbearable to say something, the Zhen family will definitely be the first wave of being cleansed.Old lady, if the Zhen family sent the goods to their door on that day, they would ask the Jia family to keep them for their care and hide them, but they would never get involved.Whoever gets involved will be in trouble, and the big trouble of raiding the family will be exterminated!
As for the second girl of the Zhen family, she is no longer a member of the Zhen family.
The reason why I treat her well is that when she was at the Zhen family, she treated me and Meimei Lin well.
Secondly, today she is the messenger of the old Jiang, Duke Zhao.
That piece of old ginger is a person who is about to become a spirit. The speed of the wind is beyond imagination. If such a person does not become an enemy, it is best not to do it. He used the second girl of the Zhen family as a messenger and bowed his head first, so I would treat the second girl well and show my kindness. There is no need to say anything more, let’s resolve the past grudges.
for the time being?!
Well, the old man from the Jiang family lives for one day, and this grudge will be overwhelming for a day.When the old man is gone, let’s talk about what happens after he is gone, the Jiang family is not all sensible.
……
……
The sisters did not come out, only Grandmother Jia, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue were entertaining guests.
In addition to Zhen Yuhuan, there are four nannies from Duke Zhao’s Mansion.
The gentle and quiet girl who was that day, saw her again today, has already tied up her hair and became a woman.
