Going through the Red Mansions quickly means going against the system.

"Nonsense! The old lady is worried about your aunt right now. If you don't just stay quiet, what are you talking about?!"

As soon as Tanchun entered the room, he saw Jia Zheng slamming the table.

He and Mrs. Wang were sitting on the main seats, now looking angry and very impatient.

Of course Tanchun knew what he was angry about. He was not angry with her and Aunt Zhao, but worried about his future relationship with Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai was a close minister of the emperor and was constantly favored. Now as a censor, he went to Yangzhou to supervise the salt administration of the Huaihe River and Huaihe River, and he was the emperor's most effective favorite.

Therefore, as his second uncle, he has been borrowing his sister's pillow style to build a good relationship with him. This mutual support and watchfulness is no worse than an old family friend.

Especially in recent years, the four families of King Xue of Jia Shi have taken different paths, and the Jia family has retreated too much, thus losing its leadership position.

Therefore, many times, we have to rely on the support of the Lin family's brother-in-law.

It's a pity that his sister is sick again and is about to die.

This is a big loss for the Jia family, and another less help for Jia Zheng.

Now that he heard what Jia Mu said, he was very willing to marry the children of the two families, but it also depended on Lin Ruhai's plan.

Things outside were so serious that he couldn't keep busy. He didn't expect that his own yard would not be quiet again.

Feeling unhappy, he summoned Aunt Zhao and Tanchun to scold them.

"Tell me! Who caused the trouble first! You are expecting something bad from the old lady!"

Tanchun and Aunt Zhao were quite speechless after seeing Jia Zheng being so threatening for a long time before they had a chance to speak. The two women acted pitifully and weakly together.

"Don't do my concubine's business."

"Master, it's my aunt who came to my place."

"Huh? Why are you going to Tanchun's place? Didn't I tell you not to disturb your daughter's recovery?"

Jia Zheng stared, he didn't want to take care of these housework matters, but Mrs. Wang pushed her away and said she didn't want to take care of it anymore.

Mrs. Wang really doesn't want to take care of it. In the past few days, the Youth Discovery Office has come to complain several times. But Aunt Zhao didn't listen to her and always went behind her back to find trouble in Tanchun.

So things turned around and turned to Jia Zheng.

"No, no!" Aunt Zhao couldn't cry anymore in front of Jia Zheng when she saw that Tan Chun was only pretending to cry.

When two women cry at the same time, for a man, naturally the younger one cries the most pitifully.

Therefore, Aunt Zhao had no choice but to accept the defeat.

"I, I have no choice... I still have my brother, and my wife fined me some money. I, I... I didn't bring anything to see her, so I was ridiculed by the little girl. Master, I'm suffering too~ "

When Jia Zheng heard this, he turned to face Tanchun.

"How do you manage the people in your house? Even the aunt who gave birth to you was ridiculed. Will you look down on me if I go?"

"Master, do you think your daughter will be that kind of person?"

Tanchun cried softly and softly.

"My daughter has been carefully taught by her elders to study and sew. The elders carefully selected and arranged the girls and women in the house. Even if I am young, I should know the skills of the old lady."

"Uh……"

What Tanchun said was reasonable and well-founded, but he couldn't really say it was his daughter's fault, so he had to ask Tanchun to reflect.

"Then tell me, are you at fault?"

Tanchun lowered his head, rubbed his red eyes hard, and thought carefully. He felt that the time was almost up, then he raised his head and said, "My daughter thinks it's right."

"What's wrong with you? Your aunt came to see you for your own good. You..."

"But the reason why I was injured was because of my aunt!"

Tanchun continued, "I have told the master before that my aunt often comes to my house and instigates me not to listen to my elders, but to only listen to her."

"Because I had read a book, I knew right from wrong, and I didn't dare to be foolish and filial, so I suddenly thought wrong. My parents came to my bed and taught me to take care of my body and not to care about my aunt. Therefore, I never provoked my aunt once, and I also Don’t dare to go.”

"Nowadays, my aunt comes to my place to make trouble several times, but I don't dare to stop her and let her make trouble. If I break something, I dare not report it to my wife. Now my wife has helped me repair it several times. I have carefully calculated that I have already ruined nearly 100 items. I really don’t dare not tell the master about a thousand taels of stuff.”

"...Huh? How much did you say?!"

Jia Zheng couldn't believe it when he heard this. Tanchun handed the list that Shishu had just prepared to Jia Zheng.

"Master, please take a look. Everything is recorded on it. If you don't believe it, I can demonstrate it."

"What demonstration?"

Jia Zheng looked at the bill Tanchun handed over and calculated it silently in his mind.

It's just that Tanchun recorded this bill in a table, using Arabic numerals, which is simple, clear and clear at a glance.

Jia Zheng managed the item information of the Ministry of Industry. When he saw this account, he suddenly understood.

Just when he thought this recording method was good and was about to study it carefully, he heard a crash and the tea set was shattered on the floor. It scared him to death.

"What's wrong! Why are you so careless!"

Jia Zheng came back to his senses, looked at Tan Chun and frowned. He hasn't reacted yet.

"Demonstration, let me show you what my aunt did when she came to my place."

After saying that, he walked to another place and saw the inkstone that Jia Zheng liked very much. He took it and hid it in his arms.

"What are you doing!"

He really liked that inkstone, but he could just give it to his daughter... No! This is my daughter imitating Aunt Zhao’s style!

"You, you are so good, why don't you learn from her!"

Jia Zheng patted the table. He didn't have enough confidence after all, and he wasn't as hard as when Tanchun first came.

Mrs. Wang had been acting like a Bodhisattva for a long time, and she couldn't help but be amused at this moment.

"Master and Madam, my daughter will not be punished if she does something wrong, so she has seen the benefits of it, and she wants to learn from it and show it to her parents."

Tanchun acted innocently and cutely.

Anyway, she is only six years old now, so she can play the role of being indifferent to right from wrong, and it is not easy to learn well, but she will run away when she learns badly.

Jia Zheng was so angry that he blew his beard and stared. He stroked his beard for a long time before he calmed down.

This calms the mind and makes the head clear.

After Tanchun said so much, he still felt that he punished Aunt Zhao too lightly.

Aunt Zhao's monthly profit is only two taels of silver plus one ounce of money. Even the two taels of silver she took from Jia Huan meant that her daily expenses were huge.

Besides, in the second half of the year, Jia Huan will go to school and there will be more places to spend money. Will he start to have sex again?

Jia Zheng looked at the items on the bill. They were all antique ornaments valued for their external value.

Jia's mother has been extravagant since she was a child, and she rewards her grandchildren with good things in order to cultivate the nobility of her children.

Therefore, glass tea bottles and glass ornaments are all expensive or not cheap.

Not to mention Tanchun's heartache, Mrs. Wang couldn't afford to compensate. Even when he looked at the order now, he was disgusted with Aunt Zhao's waste.

"It's not peaceful now. The harvests in the fields are not good. Even our family can't be so extravagant. Come and punish Aunt Zhao with half a year of confinement. Her food expenses will be halved. She should reflect on it."

"As for Tan girl... you will go to the inner study with me first and I will punish you by copying the Filial Piety Sutra a hundred times as punishment. Do you accept it?"
