[Red House] Second Master Liangshang Lian

In the evening, Mrs. Wang returned to her room from Rongqing Hall in a daze.She was scolded by Jia's mother for a long time. After all, she blamed her for not taking good care of Jia Yuanchun. Now all the prosperity and honor of Rongguo Mansion disappeared. According to Jia's mother, Jia Yuanchun and Mrs. Wang are the dangers. The chief culprit of the family's interests is the eternal sinner of the Jia family.

Mrs. Wang was already in a depressed mood, but she was aggrieved and shed tears after being behind by Jia Mu.

Unexpectedly, after returning to the house, Jia Zheng was still waiting for her.She was full of grievances and just wanted to complain to Jia Zheng, when Jia Zheng snorted coldly with a gloomy expression.

He is a scholar, and he can't swear harsh words, but his expression is as if he is about to eat Mrs. Wang, "I entrust this house to you, and this is how you do things? Since you have already found out that something is wrong, you should have done it earlier Tell me it is!"

Seeing that Jia Zheng not only did not comfort her, but also reprimanded her like Jia's mother, Mrs. Wang even wanted to die now, she said with snot and tears: "It's not what I want, why are you here?" Blame me."

Jia Zheng snorted, "I want to blame her, but she got married in a few days, can I still blame her?"

Obviously, the she that Jia Zheng was talking about was Jia Yuanchun.

Mrs. Wang thought sullenly, she was really unlucky, the eldest son left early, and the eldest daughter was careless, so she had to take care of everything that happened.No, everyone left, no matter whether it was Jia Mu or Jia Zheng, all the anger was directed at her.

After all, he was a wife, seeing Mrs. Wang crying like this, Jia Zheng still couldn't bear it, he calmed down a little, and said: "This marriage was bestowed by the emperor himself, and there is no way to withdraw it. The matter has come to an end, and it is useless to say more. But Baoyu, I have discussed it with my mother, and I will take care of her by her side from now on."

Now, Mrs. Wang couldn't even cry, she just asked in a trembling voice: "What's the meaning? Are you going to punish me?"

Jia Zheng frowned and said, "What are you talking about? Mother took care of Baoyu, so why is she punishing you? If mother heard this, how sad she would be!"

Mrs. Wang is stupid, Jia Zheng said so, it must be what Jia Mu meant, she would not dare to contradict Jia Mu even if she had ten guts, thinking about it this way, she was completely disheartened.

Jia Zheng said with relief: "We are so close to Rongqingtang. If you miss Baoyu, you can visit him at any time. It's just a few steps to the left and right. Mother values ​​our Baoyu. That's his blessing, and it's also ours." Blessing."

At this time, Mrs. Wang's mind went blank, and her tears were shed. She didn't hear what Jia Zheng said at all, but nodded with empty eyes.

Things have come to this point, she is indeed responsible, so Mother Jia is worried about handing over Baoyu to her, and she, Jia Yuanchun, she doesn't count on it anymore, it is Jia Baoyu now, and from now on, she can only give her whole heart to her. Put it on Baoyu.

Thinking of this, her mood suddenly calmed down, and she stopped crying.Seeing this, Jia Zheng just sighed slightly and didn't say any more.

Besides Jia Lian, after Jia Yuanchun's marriage was settled, he continued to work on the affairs of his shop. He thought it would be smooth all the time, but he didn't expect that there was something wrong with the Hall of Beauty.

When Craftsman Dou talked to him, he was furious. If Jia Lian hadn't stopped him, he might have smashed the aquatic product store.

"Which wicked person is jealous of our Hall of Beauty and does such a shameless thing! If I know who it is, I'll beat him to the ground!"

Hall of Beauty has all kinds of jewelry, gold and silver, gems, pearls, agate, jade... Except for pearls, other materials can be purchased in large quantities at the gold, silver and jade shop, but only river mussels and sea mussels must be bought every day. Every week, I have to go to the aquatic product store to buy fresh ones. After buying them, craftsmen Dou will open the mussels and select pearls with good texture to make pearl jewelry.Today happened to be the day to go to the aquatic product store, Craftsman Dou went there just after dawn, who knew that the shopkeeper of the aquatic product store actually said that someone went to buy all the mussels before dawn.From the opening of the Beauty Hall to the present, Craftsman Dou has never encountered such a thing. He didn't think much about it before going to other aquatic product stores, but it turned out that the same situation even ran all over the entire aquatic product street.After some research, he found out that the people who went to every aquatic product store to buy all the mussels and sea mussels were two burly men with dark faces.Most of the people who go to the aquatic product store to buy mussels are jewelry shop owners. Those who eat seafood usually go to another aquatic product street, which has a more complete variety of seafood.

Moreover, the business of the Hall of Beauty is very good, and it needs a lot of pearls every day. An ordinary jewelry store may only use fifty pearls in a month, but the Hall of Beauty can use fifty pearls in a week.Therefore, Beauty Hall is also the jewelry store where the aquatic product store buys the most mussels.

But no matter how much he used, Jia Lian never said that he would buy all the mussels, even though he could use them no matter how many.Except for the Hall of Beauty, no jewelry store needs to buy such a large amount of mussels.It is also because of the Hall of Beauty that the bleak business in Aquatic Street has gradually improved.

So it is obvious that someone deliberately wants to oppose the Hall of Beauty and wants to cut off the business of Hall of Beauty.

Xing'er persuaded from the side: "Master Dou, don't be so impulsive, isn't our second master thinking about it, if you hurt someone, the second master should bear the burden, don't make trouble!"

Jia Lian looked very calm, "The big tree attracts the wind, I should have thought of it earlier."

"Isn't this clearly bullying people! He's just a villain. If he has the ability, he will compete with us openly. It's nothing to play tricks behind the scenes!" A place that allowed him to regain a new life, Jia Lian was kind to him, even if he died, he would never let anyone bully him like this.

Jia Lian pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Dou, don't get excited. No amount of anger will solve the problem. Pearl can think of a way. At worst, we won't make pearl jewelry for a while, but the most important thing right now is the leftovers. Whether the pearls are enough to make the jewelry that has been ordered, I value the reputation of the shop more than how much money the shop can make."

Hearing what Jia Lian said, Craftsman Dou also understood that this matter should not be impulsive, so he could only suppress his anger and said, "I just looked at it, and there are twelve pieces of pearl jewelry on order, and I need fifteen white pearls and eight purple pearls." There are twelve pink pearls and one Nanyang golden pearl. I just opened the rest of the mussels. Nanyang golden pearls are the most precious. Because the price is too high and few people buy them, so now there is one left that is useless. Including this Nanyang golden pearl, there are only 26 that can be used, and there are still five white pearls and five purple pearls."

Jia Lian frowned. Although ten pearls are not many, judging from the current situation, it is difficult to buy even one.

"Or just make the ones that can be made first, and return the deposit to them if they can't be made. When the time comes, talk about it carefully, and they may not understand." Xing'er also helped out with ideas.

Before Jia Lian could speak, Craftsman Dou vetoed the proposal, "This method won't work, even if they don't blame them, if other jewelry shops find out about it, they might say something."

"Then what to do, you have come up with a feasible solution." Xing'er was also anxious.

Craftsman Dou ignored Xing'er, he turned to look at Jia Lian, and said in a muffled voice, "Second Master, I have an idea."

Jia Lian raised his head and said doubtfully, "Oh? Let's hear it."

Craftsman Dou hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked into the studio. When he came out, he held a small glazed bowl in his hand. He put the small bowl in front of Jia Lian, and said cautiously, "I'm afraid that the quantity is not enough, so I will make these flaws unobtrusive." The ones left, as long as they are polished carefully, it shouldn’t be a problem to make a pierced necklace.”

Jia Lian looked at the small glazed bowl, his face gradually turned cold, "Brother Dou, you shouldn't have such thoughts." The pearls in the small glazed bowl are all flawed after opening the mussels, and should have been disposed of long ago.

Jia Lian has always been very demanding on the quality of jewelry materials in the shop. Since he decided to start a business, he must have a clear conscience in every aspect, and he will never compromise on issues of principle.

Craftsman Dou blushed immediately, and quickly took the small glass bowl away from Jia Lian's eyes, "I'm sorry, I got impatient."

Jia Lian calmed down slightly, and said: "I know Brother Dou is only thinking about the shop, but I hope that such a thing will never be said again in the future. If there is no pearl, it is our business, so we must bear the responsibility and consequences. I have my own plan for this matter. , Big Brother Dou just needs to be busy with making jewelry, don’t worry too much.”

Don't blame him for being rude to such a blatant run on the Hall of Beauty.

"By the way, the gem head you asked me to make has been finished." Said, Craftsman Dou handed a large box to Jia Lian.

The style was designed by Jia Lian, and he also believed in the craftsman Dou's craftsmanship, so he didn't open the box to look, "Thank you Brother Dou, the shop is so busy, you made these so quickly, it's hard work."

Craftsman Dou smiled and said, "It should be."

After returning home, Jia Lian took the box to the small pavilion in the garden. When he went, Jia Yuanchun hadn't arrived yet. He put the box on the stone table and was about to sit down and rest for a while when he heard cheers not far away. Laughing language.

The sun is almost setting, why is the garden in Rongguo Mansion so lively?

He followed the sound and saw a ten-year-old girl and a woman kicking shuttlecock.

This reminded him of when he was in elementary school, there were often shuttlecock kicking and rope skipping competitions in the school, and he participated in every competition, and his grades were not bad.But since he came to this world, he hasn't exercised much.

The two were playing vigorously, and did not notice Jia Lian who was not far away.

Just as Jia Lian was about to return to the pavilion, he suddenly heard a sound at his feet.He looked down, and then saw a pair of big dull eyes.

He stood here for several minutes without realizing that there was a little girl sitting at his feet.

The little girl looked about four or five years old, with two small braids and a red headband, looking very playful and cute.At this moment, she was looking up at Jia Lian with her head up. The maltose in her hand had already melted half, covering half of her face and hands full of sugar water.

At this age, and with an appearance that is five or six points similar to his own, Jia Lian immediately knew who the little girl was. He squatted down and looked at the little girl, "Are you Yingchun?"

The little girl's gaze was still numb, but she also understood Jia Lian's words. She nodded slowly, then pointed at Jia Lian and called her second brother in a very soft voice.

Jia Lian froze for a moment, then thought that Jia Yingchun must have seen him before, "Why are you sitting here alone?"

Jia Yingchun didn't speak, but pointed to the two people who were kicking the shuttlecock.

Jia Lian felt that Jia Yingchun was much better than ordinary crying children, so he asked with a smile, "Why don't you play shuttlecock with them?"
