The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman

Chapter 361 The Injured Mrs. Wang

Anyway, after the money was raised, Mrs. Jia Zhengwang was busy building the garden, and the progress of the project was quite fast.However, since the lack of money had to be filled by the second house, Mrs. Jia Zhengwang was afraid that others would steal it, and she would have to pay more, so she didn't trust other people, so she had to go to the battle herself.

In fact, even if they want to ask someone to help, they still need someone to be willing. Let alone the problems between the two houses, they are afraid of being framed by Mrs. Wang and getting involved in money issues. Even if the big house is not afraid of these things, they still need someone .Jia Lian couldn't get away from serious errands, Lian's second grandmother was cleaning up Jia Yingchun's dowry while housekeeping, and she also had to show Jia Yingchun her son-in-law, and Mrs. Jia Shexing, the two of them had always given the impression that they were not good at doing these things.

Originally, Jia Zhu and Wang Xifeng were good candidates, but because Jia Zhu was in poor health and sick, Wang Xifeng had to take care of the children while taking care of her husband, so she really didn't have much energy.

Mrs. Wang still has some love for her son and grandson, so she has no dissatisfaction.

It's just that Sister Feng and Jia Lian in the original book are so shrewd that they were cheated out of so much money, not to mention Jia Zheng and the others, these two couples are far worse than Sister Feng and the others!Moreover, when Mrs. Wang was in charge of the entire Jia family, she was more greedy for herself, so she did not restrain her servants. Back then, Jia She's branched out because of arguing for liquidation, and she was only Mrs. Wang's confidant.

Also because of this, all the stewards in the house know that Mrs. Wang is not good at housekeeping, and Jia Zheng is also an uncommon person, so more people have been embezzled by the two of them, and this matter is intricate. By the time I know the pain and prepare to hand it over, it has become a hot potato!

So Mrs. Wang couldn't find anyone to help her in Jia's mansion, so she turned her attention to Aunt Xue, and Aunt Xue declined a little, and then took office immediately.

Mrs. Wang is in charge, and Aunt Xue is in charge. The two are in charge of the family affairs.As for the purchases outside, they were all handed over to Xue Pan.That Jia Zhengyuan is a pedantic person, he has a high self-esteem, and he has long wanted to do these dirty things. Now that Xue Pan has taken over, he will hand over everything within two days, and he is only in charge of the supervisor. up.

It's just that Xue Pan is not a good material for doing business, otherwise he would not have made his own property smaller and smaller.Plus his ears are soft.As soon as a group of cronies tout it, they don't know what their surname is, and besides, they don't use their own silver taels, so many things are bought at a lot more expensive than others.But these few people are still convinced of the high quality and high price.They are sure of this loss.

For this reason, the expenditure for garden repairs has suddenly increased a lot, which is not enough for this part of the money.Jia's mother took out 20 taels of silver from the second housekeeper, but it was still not enough, so Mrs. Wang asked the Xue family to borrow it.

Aunt Xue is not shrewd about other things, but she is very shrewd about her children's marriage, and now she sees Mrs. Wang coming over angrily, combined with the current situation, she understands the general idea in her heart.

Aunt Xue was half complaining and half begging after Mrs. Wang.He readily borrowed another 5 taels of silver, and waited for the satisfied Mrs. Wang to leave.Xue Baochai walked in frowning, and said to Aunt Xue: "Mother, didn't you say that you will not lend money to Auntie? It's not like you don't know that the money will probably never come back. Why are you doing this!"

Aunt Xue gave Xue Baochai a white look, "I'm not doing this for you. No matter how rich our family is, it's not as good as these officials. In the eyes of these officials, only Jia's marriage is the best for you. After living in Jia's for so many days , you still can't see it! This old lady looks down on our business, we can't deal with the old lady, can't we deal with your aunt?

If your aunt is not allowed to know our family's financial resources, will she support this marriage?I've heard that the old lady wanted Baoyu to marry Miss Lin. If your aunt hesitated and said it might not be possible, the old lady would let her go, then what would you do? "Although Aunt Xue regards Xue Pan as sharp-hearted, she loves Xue Baochai very much.

When talking about her marriage, Xue Baochai couldn't help blushing.

"My son, I know that your aunt is not a good mother-in-law, but in order that you will not be looked down upon in the future, we can only choose this path. I heard that the Lin family borrowed 5 taels of silver to the Jia family. Although the money is not as much as half of ours, but she is a family of officials, and Miss Lin's status is higher than yours. With the support of the old lady, your uncle may agree.

And the Lin family may not have plans to get closer, since Miss Lin already has a stepmother.Therefore, your aunt, we must please. "Actually, Aunt Xue is also a little helpless. You really think 5 taels of silver is a small amount! It's just about Xue Baochai's life, plus the big money in front. If it is because of this small amount of money, the marriage will fall through, Aunt Xue I can't even cry!

Hearing Aunt Xue's words, Xue Baochai was a little bit aggrieved. Lin Daiyu didn't see that she was much better than herself, so she just had one more good background than herself!But now it is Jia's mansion who is rushing to ask for a marriage, but he has caught up with him, which makes Xue Baochai, who has always been proud and arrogant, bear it so much!

Knowing daughter Mo Ruomu, Aunt Xue looked at Xue Baochai and naturally knew what she was thinking, so she immediately said righteously: "I know you are not fair, but my son, we have to recognize the reality. Since your father left Afterwards, the family deteriorated day by day, and your brother is a jerk, and I'm afraid you will be needed to support him in the future.

Although the old lady wanted Baoyu to marry Miss Lin, the Lin family might not be willing. I heard a few days ago that a girl from the Lin family was given to Princess Luoyao's only son by the emperor. Now the Lin family is on fire!If people go to high places, the Lin family may not necessarily look down on the Jia family!If you marry Baoyu in the future, you must take good care of the relatives of the Lin family.

You are smart, think about it, before your father left, if it weren't for your uncle and Jia's family, we orphans and widows would not know what it would be like to be bullied!In this world, money is nothing, but power is good.Otherwise, I wouldn't let you hang yourself on this tree in Jia's house!" Aunt Xue said to Xue Baochai earnestly.

This Aunt Xue has nothing else of her own, but her handling of interpersonal relationships is still in place, otherwise she would not have gained the reputation of a "compassionate Aunt Xue" in the original book.

Xue Baochai is also a smart person. After Aunt Xue made such a point, although she was still a little bit aggrieved, she agreed and knew that Aunt Xue was telling the truth.

Xue Baochai is aggrieved here, and so is Mrs. Wang!

She was not angry with Xue's family, but angry with Jia's mother. As soon as she thought about it, she had to pay for it herself and take out the money.Mrs. Wang's heart hurts like someone cut her flesh with a knife, but the money can't be released, and the angry Mrs. Wang has a stomachache.

In November, the construction of the Provincial Courtyard was completed. When there were many people, Mother Jia mentioned that the money was not enough. The decoration in this courtyard is still quite poor. For the sake of empress's face, let everyone think of a way , even part of the ornaments come out.

Everyone in the big room knew this would happen a long time ago, so they had a meeting long ago to discuss countermeasures!

So the first room agreed very readily for the first time, but when he was waiting for the things to be delivered to the second room, Mrs. Wang looked at it full of expectations, and suddenly felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured down.

It's not that something is bad, but it's great!All the decorations were awarded to the Jia family by the royal family, and they all bear the royal mark. Who would dare to use these things except the royal family?Although Mrs. Wang was dissatisfied, she couldn't say a word of no. Isn't this for the consolation of the empress?

If Mrs. Wang is messing around, let alone Da Fang's reaction, even Jia's mother can't justify it.

Thinking of Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up, and it was time for the old woman to come up with some good things!

It's a pity that this Jia's mother is also a good person. Seeing how readily Jia Amnesty agreed, she was afraid that the second wife would suffer, so she sent someone to investigate!After Mother Jia knew the result, she didn't say anything. She also knew that the eldest and second wife was just looking at her face and maintaining a superficial harmony!It's pretty good that Jia Amnesty can lend something!

But this also reminded Mother Jia that the decoration in the other courtyard, even if everything in the second room was emptied, was still a drop in the bucket, far from the goal.In fact, this is also very normal. You must know that the Jia family was born as a military commander, so they didn't do much research on these things, but they just bought a few pieces after following the trend. In addition, when Jia Min married, he married a literati, so the better ones were rejected. Jia's mother married Jia Min as a dowry, and there were not many in the house.

If Mrs. Wang came to ask her for it, Mother Jia would definitely refuse to give it to her. Jia Amnesty is a good idea.I'm not afraid that Mrs. Wang will be corrupted. These things have the royal seal, and all parties have records. It's not that Mrs. Wang can do whatever she wants.

Similarly, Jia Zhen is not a fool. When she was waiting for Mrs. Wang to borrow it, she also gave her something for the royal family, which made Mrs. Wang angry.

There was no other way, Mrs. Wang had no choice but to borrow all the decorations that were placed on weekdays, of course Jia Baoyu's was no exception, she borrowed the most from Jia Baoyu, who made Jia Baoyu's decorations the best.With this action, even Jia Mu was speechless, so she could only take out some good things from her own body and present them to Jia Baoyu.

Because things are borrowed from everywhere, plus some of the purchases are made, and after some arrangement, this other courtyard is quite rich.Of course, it is definitely far inferior to the one in the original book.
