[Red House] Men's clothing

Time is so cruel, Mrs. Qin is even older than the last time we met, and Qin Zhong has become obsessive, and like the common people outside, he began to fear the rich and powerful, groveling under the pressure of life, never again. That unreasonable jealousy.

After chatting in Mrs. Qin's upper room, Qin Zhong's family was dismissed. Mrs. Qin's mother-in-law and maidservants surrounded Zhu Dan and played in the yard, only Mrs. Qin and Situ Yue were left in the room.

"How did the child come about?" Mrs. Qin grabbed Situ Yue's arm, "Is it a secret?"

"I picked it up. Don't worry."

Mrs. Qin looked outside the door, Zhu Dan was talking childishly, and the maids around were cautious. "I looked at the eyebrows and eyes, and it looks a bit like you."

"When you are in one place every day, you will naturally look alike."

"This... the bloodlines must not be confused. You are so kind to him, what will you do in the future? A few years ago, I heard Zhong'er say that the late emperor was not good to the crown prince, why did he cut off the officials of the Eastern Palace? Thing, I am a woman and I have been in charge of the house, so I naturally know that this is the first emperor who tabooed the crown prince. You said, my uncle and nephew are still like this, you picked him up..."

"I raised him, of course it is my son. I just picked up a dog on the road. I raised him as my son. Don't worry about it, madam. I have read some stories before about a widowed old man, After death, I gave my inheritance to my cats and dogs. There are also people who gave their inheritance to irrelevant people when they finally died, just because their children were unfilial. I divided myself into two parts, one is the emperor, and the other is the emperor. I can’t be sorry to Sheji, and I can’t be sorry to my children. It’s a joke in our family to say that raising children to guard against old age. My wife, my grandfather is rare now. I don’t know what it is like in my old age. But I can be an emperor. , is already worth it.”

Mrs. Qin patted her hands. "Take care of yourself in everything."

After a while, Cheng Ju who was outside the door said, "Master, lunch is ready, please move master and young master."

There were only Situ Yue, Mrs. Qin and Zhu Dan at the dinner table. Qin Zhong poured wine at the side twice before letting Situ Yue rush to another table.Say to Mrs. Qin, "Today is too extravagant."

"If you don't come for a long time, you should be extravagant. If you come often, you won't be entertained with so many dishes." After Madam Qin finished speaking, she gave Situ Yue a piece of fish.Zhu Dan immediately wanted to eat fish with a small plate.Mrs. Qin quickly picked up another chopstick for him.

While talking at the dinner table, it was inevitable to talk about Jia's family. "The old lady in his family is the best at living. When their second master Jiabao got married, there was a running water mat for three days in the street in front of us. We are neighbors, and we ate with their house. At that time, their family The noble concubine and empress are still there, and there are many princesses and princesses who came to congratulate, and several county kings also came. Hey, I sat in their backyard and watched Mrs. Wang pick up the distinguished guests from a distance. There are many people, and there are many distinguished guests. The food served is really rare. It is unheard of to fly in the sky, swim in the water, and run on the ground. The old lady of his family came out one by one, saying how delicious it is and what delicious food it is. The Duke's House. I was thinking, the Duke's mansion is like this, is the Wang's mansion more luxurious, this time let Zhong'er go out to find some good wine and food, I don't know if you like it, I don't have the old lady of the Jia family With that insight, otherwise I can persuade you to eat more."

Situ Yue held his chopsticks and listened to what she said, turned his head to glance at Zhu Dan who was listening in a daze, and said to Mrs. Qin, "You can see what the food in the palace is like, just look at this kid. All the halazi will flow out."

Zhu Dan quickly wiped the corners of his mouth, making Situ Yue laugh.

"Don't think about it too much. The life of the Jia family is a sin and a pity. You forgot, when we moved in from the outer city, we went to their house, and even the servants lived the life of a master. At that time , our family bought a full set of things for 500 taels of silver, and they are still using them. At that time, the monthly money they sent to the servants was more than 3000 taels a month. Bicai didn’t want to go up and down, but how many people there are in the palace, how many masters there are, and how much it costs to repair and maintain, the Jia family is too extravagant. For me, having a bed when I sleep and rice when I eat That's enough. There are only a few delicious things, if you prepare the kitchen with some of my favorite food, it will give me an extra bowl of rice than this table full of delicacies from mountains and seas."

After Qin Zhong heard this, he went out and told his wife a few words. When a piece of braised pork and braised pork came out, Qin Zhong stood aside and refused to move away.

"Brother Zhong, is something wrong?"

Qin Zhong obediently agreed.

"After dinner, let's go to the front yard and talk."

After dinner, he entrusted Zhu Dan to Mrs. Qin. Situ Yue went to the front yard. The old housekeeper Qin Gui brought the servants who needed to pay his respects. After a while of chaos, Qin Zhong finally found his chance say.

"Brother Liu asked me to intercede with Baoyu yesterday..." Then he couldn't continue, looking at Situ Yue anxiously.

"Speaking of which, the members of the Jia family are also capable. A few days ago, when Ke'er entered the palace, she told me about the servants of the Jia family coming to beg for mercy. Unexpectedly, they hit the bell and bumped into you now."

Situ Yue leaned on the chair.There was a piece of pea yellow on hand. This was Situ Yue's favorite pastry in the past. It was not too hot, so Situ Yue picked up a piece.

"Are you begging for Jia Baoyu or for the Jia family?"

"Of course it's Baoyu, he's weak... I've also inquired about it. Their family was implicated. When the late emperor was alive, some armor was found from the Ningguo Mansion. These things were done by the Ningguo Mansion... ...."

"The armor was found in their family's ancestral hall. The first emperor tabooed this. Now that I am in front of me, it is just a matter of letting them go. But do you know why I don't want to let them go? When I went to the south of the Yangtze River to search , the Zhen family carried a large sum of gold and silver into the Rongguo Mansion in the name of dowry. People in the world marry daughters, and those who love their daughters naturally have a thick dowry. I didn't pursue it at the time. Since it is a dowry, the money should be It belongs to the Jia Zhen family, and when the Jia Zhen family gets older and distributes the dowry to the children and grandchildren, the money will be surnamed Jia, isn’t it Brother Zhong?”

Qin Zhong nodded.

"But this money went to the Rongguo Mansion, entered Jia Wang's private treasury, and was used to establish relationships in the palace. Moreover, this money has been used to support the entire Jia family until now. The Jia Zhen family can't do this. Master, it is her mother-in-law, Wang Shi, who is in charge. I just thought that this money is the money left by the Zhen family in Jia's house, with the intention of making a comeback in the future. Not only that, when the Jia family was sealed off, the people of the late emperor really found it. The evidence came out, the letter from Zhen Yingjia's wife and the Wang family that day listed the number of treasures, the number of gold and silver taels. Brother Zhong, this is a private stash of stolen money, and the amount is huge. One. Another one is the most fundamental reason why I don’t want to spare the Jia family. It’s that the Jia family doesn’t pay back their debts. Year after year, the accumulated interest almost catches up with the principal. If you have money, don’t pay back. , keeping Qing customers, and outside the room, a lot of money was scattered in restaurants, silver houses and brothels. When the emperor went out to fight, he joined forces all day long in the name of raising military affairs, jumping up and down lost his duty as a courtier."

Qin Zhong could see that he was very disappointed, his energy and spirit dropped a lot.In the end, he didn't give up and added a few words: "Baoyu is a son who doesn't care about things, and he listens to his parents and elders at home. He doesn't know that his family owes money to the treasury, and he doesn't know that someone in the family is going to support the outer room. Going to restaurants and brothels to have fun, let alone places like silver houses and pawnshops. The cleanest person..."

"Brother Zhong, I heard from my elder brother that after Baoyu came out, he didn't know how to make a living. His family was able to save him that day. After the chief culprit was executed, he could be released from prison, but what he would do, he had no fame and no reputation. Some people will ask him to be a teacher. He has no strength, can't go to the pier to do coolies, and can write a few crooked poems. There are many people in the world who can write poems. When will he be famous all over the world? I don't know how much he will ask for Children need him to support, and the elderly need him to be filial. Instead of this, it is the best ending for him to sit in prison. You, don't worry about it. "

Qin Zhong is a fool and knows that after the Jia family is released from prison, they have no land, not even a place to live, so it's not as good as those who moved their families to the capital.Followed by a long sigh. "My friends and I will never let Baoyu fall into such a situation."

Situ Yue smiled. In fact, Qin Zhong is also a master who doesn't care about childbirth. The housekeeper is his wife. When he said this, he definitely didn't know how much money the family had.Situ Yue ate the pea yellow slowly, Qin Zhong held the cup to him, Situ Yue drank a couple of sips and said to him, "The matter of the Jia family will not be judged easily years ago, it involves too much, someone sued Rong The government is aggressive, and the plaintiff is a magistrate. I heard that his daughter was forced to death by the Jia family. There are also some who say that the Jia family has seized other people’s land. Oh, there are even more egregious things in the pleadings sent by Jinling. I won't tell you anymore, if you want to, send Jia Baoyu some thick clothes."

At sunset, Situ Yue took Zhu Dan back to the palace. When he arrived at Chongzheng Hall, the on-duty bachelor said that according to the usual practice, Enke should be opened next year.

Not long after this year's Enke passed, the candidates who failed in other places have not left, and they are also waiting to announce the news of Enke.The more Situ thought about it, the selection of talents by the imperial court is based on the imperial examination.Then she nodded in agreement, and at the same time told the bachelor on duty that when it was time for the palace examination, she would write the questions and correct the test papers herself.

Situ Yue's domineering nature has been understood by the court officials in the past few days, and the officials did not dare to refute it, so it was up to Situ Yue to decide.

There were also a few scholars who looked at Situ Yue worriedly. For so many years, Situ Yue's literary level was still at the point where he couldn't even read the Analects of Confucius.In addition to literacy, the zhezi was written a little more esoteric. The emperor threw the zhezi directly at the minister's face, and added a sentence: Can you write in human language?

When the time comes for him to come up with a question, this is too childish...
