The son of the red mansion is unscrupulous

Jia Lian held hands together and watched Baoyu being taken away quietly. After a year or two, the entire Rongguo Mansion's family traditions were rectified. Naturally, the reputation of their family will improve a lot earlier, so they can also be cheeky. Ask Zongli's children to associate with some noble families.

This is a foothold in the world, after all, reputation is very important.

Seeing that Baoyu had left, Yingchun and the others followed for fear of disturbing Jia Lian.

After several people left, Jia Lian took the blueprint bought from Shenjiying and thought about how to disassemble the gun. After studying for half a day, he called Jiao Dalai again.

Jiao Da's face was full of wrinkles, he drank two glasses of wine at this time, and because he was grateful for Jia Lian's courtesy to him, he patted his chest boldly and said: "I will accompany the old man to fight the war. When I was a child, I saw people doing this thing upside down, and I once got a shot, so I know how to do it upside down."

"Then thank you Mrs. Jiao." Jia Lian laughed.

Although Jiao Da was a little drunk, he became more and more embarrassed when he heard Jia Lian calling him the grandfather, and said vaguely: "Why is the second master so polite?" As he spoke, he squinted his eyes repeatedly and looked at the blueprint in front of Jia Lian. Finally, he said confidently: "I'll take the second master to see how I dismantle that thing."

"Okay." Seeing Jiao Da's self-confidence, Jia Lian didn't believe it. He got up and followed Jiao Da to the outside. Seeing him staggering a step, he felt that the matter was very close, so he asked Quan Fu to support Jiao Da, and followed him all the way. Jiao Da went out and left the Jinghuanzhai. When he saw Mrs. Wang, he was afraid that Baoyu would suffer, so he sent people to send a lot of things to Baoyu's room in the outer courtyard. After walking a few steps forward, I saw a young man at the door saying, "Second master, Mr. Jia Yucun Jia, who was a teacher at the second master's side before, came to visit."

Jia Lian wondered what Jia Yucun was doing here.First sent Quan Fu to lead Lai Da to the room next to the stable, and then went back to the open room of the study in the outer courtyard to wait for Jia Yucun to come. While waiting, he said to Quan Xi: "While I go to drink tea, Then you go out and send a boy here casually, saying that the old man knows that Jia Yucun is here and wants to take me for questioning."

"Yes." Quan Xi agreed.

After waiting for a while, Jia Yucun came in with his head held high and his chest held high. Seeing that the hat on his head was sewn with a piece of water-green satin, Jia Lian sneered in his heart, then got up and took two steps to greet him. Jia Yucun sat down in the open room.

Seeing that Jia Lian was really polite to him, Jia Yucun repeatedly clasped his hands and called Shixiong, then sat down on the chair on Jia Lian's left, and after he sat down, he exchanged a few pleasantries and looked at Quan Xi with his eyes.

"Mr. has something to say, but it's okay to say it. He has been with me for more than ten years." Jia Lian said.

When Jia Yucun heard the words, his left hand seemed to be unintentionally flattening the wrinkles on his clothes, and he put his right hand on the armrest, and said to Jia Lian in a low voice: "Brother Shi, Yucun accidentally learned a very important thing in Dongfu. , This matter is no small matter, Yucun was disturbed when he heard about it, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so he came here to listen to Shixiong, asking Shixiong to give Yucun an idea."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Jia Lian asked with a smile.

Jia Yucun probed mysteriously and asked: "Brother, do you know that Master Zhen and Brother Rong from the East Mansion are very generous in spending money every day when they eat wine and watch theater?"

"I didn't have much contact with their family after the division, so I don't know about it." Jia Lian laughed.

Jia Yucun asked more slyly: "Brother, do you know where they got their money from?"

"The left is just the ladder left by the eldest wife of their house. How can I not know about their family? Their family will spend all their money to be happy." Jia Lian pretended to be disdainful.

Jia Yucun took a closer look at Jia Lian's expression, and deliberately revealed some clues: "After Prince Zhongyi passed away, Uncle Zhen and Brother Rong seemed to have made a fortune. Lou Changshi from Prince Yizhong's mansion came here in white filial piety. I took two boxes of things and left the house."

Jia Lian pretended to be more and more ignorant, thinking that no one knew the news that Ningrong and Rongfu were not in harmony after the division of the clan. No wonder Jia Yucun came to Rongguo Mansion to report the news first, but he was not yet capable of dealing with Ningguo Mansion, so he picked up After taking a sip of the tea bowl, he said in doubt: "It is said that Prince Yizhong's mansion and Prince Zhongshun's mansion are very good. I also thought that Lou Yu went to the Prince Zhongshun's mansion as an errand. Why did he go to the East mansion? It is Dongping and Nan'an. In terms of friendship, the three palaces of Xining and Xining are also better than the East Palace."

Jia Yucun smiled, and was about to lead Jia Lian to focus on the two boxes, when a young fellow with red lips and white teeth came in and said, "Second Master, Master told you to come over immediately."

Jia Lian asked, "What's the rush?"

The boy glanced at Jia Yucun, and said with a stern face, "Master knows that this gentleman is here."

Jia Lian hurriedly put down the tea bowl, and said awkwardly to Jia Yucun, "Mr. Yucun, I'm so ashamed..."

Jia Yucun stood up without embarrassment, and blamed himself: "It is Yucun who has troubled the elder brother, so Yucun will leave now." He cupped his hands and went out immediately.

"Sir, stop." Jia Lian called out, went to the east room and took out 20 taels of silver, "Please accept it, sir."

Jia Yucun was startled, thanked him briefly, took the money and went.

Jia Lian went out to watch him go, and when Jia Yucun was gone, he said to the smiling Quan Xi, "Let someone keep an eye on Jia Yucun. I guess he found us because he was depressed in the East Mansion." Come up to the door."

"Hey." Quan Xi hurriedly agreed.

Jia Lian reckoned that he had intentionally mentioned Zhongshun Prince's Mansion just now, so Jia Yucun would definitely not go looking for Zhongshun Prince's Mansion again—whether Zhongshun Prince's Mansion knew about Prince Yizhong or not, only because Jia Yucun knew about Qin Keqing, Lord Zhongshun It is impossible to say that the powerless and powerless people in Jiayu Village will be wiped out.Thinking about it, he stepped into the room next to the stable, and as soon as he entered, he saw Jiao Da triumphantly displaying several disassembled muskets.

"Second Lord, look, it's exactly the same as your paper." Jiao Da said triumphantly.

Jia Lian couldn't laugh or cry at once, but it turned out that the musket in front of him could not be disassembled. If it was dismantled, it would be a pile of scrap iron and rotten wood. Besides, the musket was rusted, and now it looks even worse after dismantling it.Seeing that he will go to sea next year, he really has a headache right now.

"Second Master thinks something is wrong?" Jiao Dajiu's nose was red, seeing Jia Lian's expression was unclear, he immediately moved closer nervously.

Jia Lian shook his head and said with a smile, "Your dismantling is good, but I thought it would be good to put it back together after dismantling it, but now it seems that I can't."

Jiao Da opened his eyes wide. Jia Lian thought about it for a while, and then he thought about asking Xue's shop to build some of these things separately, and then take them all to the sea to install them. He said again: "How about you, old man, go out with me?"

Jiao Da immediately agreed with joy, and he couldn't help muttering when he was old: "A job as good as going out with the young master usually doesn't fall on the old man like me, everyone wants to look handsome The boy followed him out."

Jia Lian said, "That's because they don't know Mount Tai."

Jiao Dalian nodded, because he said again: "Did the second master leave the papers from Xianrong Guogong? The descendants in the East Mansion are not filial, and I also keep a few old Ning Guogong's papers in my hand, but the mansion is full of people from the grand master to the old man. None of Brother Rong cares about that thing."

"The old man still keeps that one?" Jia Lian paused, but fortunately he was worried and spent a lot of money to buy it from Shenjiying. It turned out that Jiao Da had it in his hand.

"Not only this, I, Jiao Da, also respectfully kept the clothes that the old Duke wore at that time." Jiao Da was very proud of his loyalty.

Jia Lian immediately smiled and said, "Don't hang on to me, old man, you can give me some blueprints."

Jiao Da straightened his spine more and more proudly and said: "Of course it should be given to the second master Lian, otherwise who else can I give it to? I want to give it to Master Jing, Master Zhen, and Brother Rong, but they are not rare." With Fu's support, he said, "Second Lord, follow me to get it." As he spoke, he went out.

Jia Lian saw that although some people were crazy about Jiao Da, he was honest, so he immediately followed him.

Jiao Da was currently living in the lower group room on the west side. He asked Quan Fu to support him respectfully, and asked Jia Lian to follow him. Ningguo Mansion looked down on his men and women, entered the room, and immediately walked to the only box with mottled paint in the very bright room, took out an old bag from it, opened the bag, and inside were a few old Some of the blueprints were even stained with rusty blood.

While Jia Lian was overjoyed, he couldn't help telling Lai Da: "Don't let the East Mansion know about this matter. If they find out, even though it's useless for them to hold it, they will take it back."

"Second Master, don't worry, it's not that I, Jiao Da, don't know what to do." Jiao Da patted his chest again and said.

Jia Lian held the blueprint in his handkerchief and said, "Then how about being my attendant for a while, old man?"

Jiao Dalian nodded repeatedly, it was rare to be "reused", his lips trembled slightly with excitement.

Jia Lian smiled, and Jiao Da went forward again, came out from a small door, and then went out of the west corner gate of Rongguo Mansion. Seeing that the horses were ready outside the door, a group of people got on the horses and headed straight for Xue's house. .

Passing by the Ningguo Mansion, seeing the servants in front of the gate of Ningguo Mansion squatting or sitting in a disorganized manner, Young Master Jiao scolded Ningguo Mansion for the fact that the upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked.

Jia Lian listened to his scolding, and was thinking about what Jia Yucun would do, when he saw Ningrong Street, Jia Qiang lowered her head, as if she was in a daze, and wandered alone without bringing her servant.

"What is Brother Qiang doing here?" Sitting on the horse, Jia Lian saw Jia Qiang wearing a brand-new Japanese satin singlet, and sighed in his heart that Jia Zhen really treated Jia Qiang well.

Jia Qiang was wandering around mindlessly, when Jia Lian yelled out suddenly, she was almost scared out of her wits, and after a jolt, she came back laughing, and caught a glimpse of a bunch of red-lipped and white-toothed young men, Jiao Da, a bad old man following arrogantly, I scolded this shameless old man in my heart, "Where is Second Uncle Lian going?"

"Go and have a look at Pan'er, what are you doing all this time without thinking? You didn't bring a little girl with you, what if something happens?" Jia Lian asked.

Jia Qiang asked nervously, "Second Uncle Lian just met Jia Yucun?" Then she said with a guilty conscience, "Uncle Zhen is going to divide my yard and ask me to move out of Ningguo Mansion."

"Isn't that bad? Then Jia Yucun came here once, and didn't say a word, and I was scolded by the elder for nothing." Jia Lian sneered.

Jia Qiang smiled awkwardly. At this time, relying on Jia Lian's backing, Jiao Da felt that the descendants of the Rong family were more promising than the descendants of the Ning family, so he asked Jia Qiang angrily, "You were killed because of your uncle?" Drive out, or because of your sister-in-law Rong?"

Jia Qiang was so choked by this sentence that her face flushed, and she spat immediately: "Old bastard, are you talking about me?" She was in a hurry to leave, so she turned back and said to Jia Lian, "Second Uncle Lian, this old man Things are a scourge, you can't keep them!"

Jia Lian also felt that Jiao Da's mouth was too presumptuous, so he hurriedly turned his head to focus on the road: "What does your old man say he is a child?"

Seeing Jia Lian speak, Jiao Da shut up.

Jia Lian wondered if Qin Keqing was buried in a masonry coffin, could this mast be that Qiang?Thinking about it, I'm leaving.

Now it was Jia Qiang who held Jia Lian's horse, and he asked nervously, "So Jia Yucun didn't say anything to Uncle Lian?"

"What did you tell Jia Yucun?" Jia Lian asked back.

Jia Qiang said anxiously: "I never told him anything. It was Jia Yucun who wrote a few poems for Brother Rong to steal the show in the restaurant, and Brother Rong was drunk...that Jia Yucun recently helped the uncle with an idea, and asked the uncle to send someone to Ping'an Prefecture... The uncle rewarded Jia Yucun with ten taels of silver and gave the errand runner 50 taels of silver. I saw him in the family school as if he was not convinced..." Hesitating I just thought that Jia Yucun must be planning something when he suddenly went to see Jia Lian; and he was afraid that Jia Lian and Jia Zhen would not deal with each other, and after hearing Jia Yucun's words, he would do something bad.

"What are you worried about? Just go and tell your uncle." Jia Lian saw Jia Qiang scratching her head and blushing anxiously, and wondered how Jia Qiang could tell that Jia Yucun was hiding something, so Question: "How do you know that Jia Yucun is not convinced?"

Jia Qiang sneered and said: "Recently, everyone in the family school catches crickets, but there are fewer people going out of his house and more crickets. After passing by, don't you see him throwing money on the ground in the main room?" Then hesitantly said: "Say it Uncle, listen, is he willing to listen? I'm afraid I may have slipped my tongue." Seeing that Jia Lian didn't seem willing to take care of this matter, he felt a little relieved.

Jia Lian had no other way to teach Jia Qiang, so he said, "In any case, you have nothing to do, just move out and live by yourself." As he spoke, he saw three blue sedan chairs coming up the road.

When Jia Qiang saw the sedan chair coming, she hurriedly hid behind Jia Lian's horse. Jia Lian became more and more puzzled. She glanced slightly and saw someone in a sedan chair opened the sedan chair to look, and saw that it was an old lady.

"Which one is this?" Jia Lian asked Jia Qiang when the sedan chair had gone far away.

Jia Qiang said: "Which one else can it be? It's the three women of You's family." Fearing that he would be seen talking to Jia Lian, he bowed and took two steps back, then hurried away.

"... I wronged Brother Qiang, it's hard to believe that there is someone in the East Mansion who knows what is right and what is wrong." Jiao Da sobered up a little, seeing Jia Qiang leaving in a hurry, he couldn't help but regret the hurtful words he said just now.

Jia Lian said, "It's good for the old man to know." Jia Qiang divided the yard in time, so it's unknown if Jia Yucun will be able to save herself after something happens in Jia Yucun.
