Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

Although Qi Pingan came out with Jia Cong, he also had a few good friends in Jia Cong's house, and they never lost contact according to Jia Cong's instructions.That day, he heard a message from Jia Lian's servant, and rushed to tell Jia Cong.

"Second Brother Lian has secretly married Second Sister You and raised him outside?" Jia Cong was a little surprised when he heard the news.It is true that he has read the original book, but he can't remember when Jia Lian secretly married Second Sister You.By the way, some time ago, Jia Jing, the old man of the East Mansion, died suddenly while making alchemy, and Jia Zhen and his wife made a fuss about the funeral. At that time, he and Jia Dairu went to offer incense and worship together.The relationship between Jia Jing and him is far away now, so he doesn't care too much.By the way, it was at this time that Jia Lian and Second Sister You met and got involved.

"Second Master Lian married Second Mistress behind his back, and he even sent his confidants to serve Second Sister You, and they all directly called Na You Grandma." Qi Pingan said, "However, Grandma Lian'er already knows about it now." , personally came to the door to take Youshi into the mansion, and passed Minglu. Then Youshi is now the second wife of Lian Erye."

"When the You family entered the mansion, they just stepped into the fire pit and were at the mercy of others. The ending will not be good." Jia Cong shook his head and said.Unless Na Youshi can be as pungent as Aunt Zhao and be able to fight without regard for face, sooner or later he will be tortured to death by Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng is now more ruthless than before.In order to deal with Second Sister You, he also sent someone to go to the government in the identity of Second Sister You's fiancé, Zhang Hua, and sued Jia Lian for forcing a woman from a good family during the period of national filial piety and family filial piety, stopping his wife and remarrying, and then sent someone to kill him.This later became a major crime for Jia Lian to be imprisoned.At this time, Wang Xifeng was no longer just domineering in the inner house, she didn't care about the blood on her hands.If Zhang Jinge and his brother were killed for 3000 taels of silver, it turned out to be an unintentional greed for money, but now the nature has completely changed.

What's more, she didn't succeed in killing people to silence her. In the future, this would become Jia Lian's crime, just like her lending usury.The government will not believe that Jia Lian did not know about this, it must be a denial.

Although Jia Lian is a dandy, he still has a conscience and dare not do anything illegal, and he is not the one who really holds power in the Jia family.Jia Cong wanted to try his best to keep Jia Lian, at least not let him go into exile.Part of the reason is that Jia Lian still felt guilty towards him and showed goodwill to make up for him when he became the successor, but more of it was because of Qiaojie.

In the book, Sister Qiao was sold into the dusty place by a ruthless uncle and treacherous brother. Grandma Liu was grateful for Wang Xifeng's helping hand at the beginning, and ransacked her to redeem her.In the continuation book, Sister Qiao finally married into the family of a wealthy man in the village of Grandma Liu, and she had no worries about food and clothing, which was a good ending.

But Jia Cong thought about it carefully, and felt that this seemed impossible, and it was purely a beautiful fiction of the author.The Jia family was overthrown, and the noble daughter of the past was suddenly reduced to a criminal. The glory of the past is not enough to talk about. It can be said that a hairless phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken!Take a look at what happened to those concubines and concubines when the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed?And Miss Qiao is just the great-granddaughter of Rong Guogong, separated by several floors, and her father, Jia Lian, doesn't even have an official status, so she can't be considered very honorable.

What's more, what's more, he even went to a brothel. Although nothing happened, his reputation was completely ruined.The local rich man's family is not a fool, why would he marry a girl who is worthless and whose reputation is not clean?It is possible to take her as a slave, or as a concubine.Or, you can only marry Grandma Liu's grandson Ban'er, that is the most realistic choice.Although peace can be achieved, but it is difficult to change from extravagance to frugality. The maids in Jia's mansion are used to the life of wealth and honor, and they regard being kicked out and being married to a boy as the most terrible thing, let alone Qiaojie, a real lady?Therefore, Sister Qiao was also included in the Department of Poor Life. Thinking about it, she was always depressed and unhappy all her life.

If Jia Lian goes to jail, as Qiaojie's "uncle", whether it's because of fame or for the sake of his own conscience, how can Jia Cong ignore her?But it is easy to save Qiaojie, and it can be done by giving her money to resettle her. But if Jia Lian is exiled, Jia Cong must find a good home for her. Simply put, find her a good husband.In terms of Qiaojie's status at that time, it would be very difficult to handle!

Therefore, Jia Lian must not be in trouble!Jia Cong immediately turned this idea in his mind.And with him here, the Jia family is supported by him, and there is no reason to involve himself.

"Ping An, you run for me. I have a meeting with Brother Lian. I have something to discuss with him." Jia Cong ordered.

"Brother Cong, you are in a hurry to find me, but you have something to do?" Jia Lian quickly set a time without neglecting at all.The current Jia Cong is no longer an ordinary person. In terms of status and ability, he is a leader among the next generation of the Jia family, so he can't help but pay attention to it.Jia Cong treated the Rongguo Mansion with a respectful and far-flung attitude, and now he is specially looking for him, there must be something important, Jia Lian thought in his heart.

"It's really a big deal!" Jia Cong cut straight to the point and asked directly, "Second brother Lian, do you know that the second sister-in-law is lending usury?"

"What?" Jia Lian was stunned. He naturally knew what loan sharks were, but isn't this usually the business of bullies in the market?

"Brother Cong, where did you hear that?" Jia Lian hurriedly asked, "Could it be a mistake? Although Sister Feng is greedy for money, how can she have the guts to do such a thing as a woman?"

Jia Cong sneered: "Second Brother Lian, what you said is really interesting! Didn't Second Sister-in-law take Jia Rui's life, why don't you dare?"

"This" brought up this matter, and Jia Lian couldn't help being short of breath.

"Second brother Lian, I also have friends outside, and I know this news from them, it can't be false." Jia Cong said seriously: "You should think about how to solve this matter."

"The law of the imperial court stipulates that the interest on loan lending shall not exceed three cents. There are exceptions, and those who demand more will be punished according to the law. Violators can be whipped forty, and the remaining profits will be counted as stolen goods. Those who are serious will be punished as a crime for the stolen goods, and the stick will be stopped at one hundred." Jia Cong repeated. Law, and then sneered: "This is for everyone, and those who have official positions and titles, one more thing: usurers, dismissed from office!"

Jia Lian turned pale with shock: "But it's none of my business, I've never done this kind of business of cutting off children and grandchildren! Will the court still wrong good people?"

"Isn't the second sister-in-law your regular wife? Does the husband not know what the wife does?" Jia Cong said indifferently: "Your defense must be believed by the court. Erase it, Brother Lian, you will become a sinner of Jia's family, and I'm afraid you won't be able to gain a foothold in the family!"

"Or," Jia Cong changed the subject, "Once this matter comes out, in order not to let the government take advantage of it, the government will use this to force you to voluntarily surrender the title."

"It's impossible!" Jia Lian cried out, "How could Father agree?"

"So what if he doesn't agree?" Jia Cong said disdainfully: "If he is capable and bloody, he can still be suppressed by the old lady for 20 years. He can't live in the main courtyard in the mansion, and he can't speak. Not him! He is a serious successor of the Rongguo Mansion! Although the old lady is a mother, there has been a saying in ancient times that a husband must obey his son when he dies!"

Jia Lian heard Jia Cong's full of contempt, her heart stagnated, and she murmured: "But Sister Feng still has her natal family, her uncle will definitely not agree, he will."

"Prince Teng?" Jia Cong chuckled, "You said your title was handed over, who will inherit it?"

Jia Lian said nothing. Isn't it obvious? Of course it's for Baoyu!

"You are Wang Ziteng's niece and son-in-law, but Baoyu is his direct nephew. Tell me, which of you two is closer to him?" Jia Cong asked sharply.

Jia Lian was depressed for a moment, then pulled himself together, and reluctantly said: "How can other people's homes compare to ours, so there is no need to worry so much, why is this?"

"Hehehe!" Jia Cong clapped his hands and laughed a few times, and said sarcastically, "Second Brother Lian is not someone like Uncle Xie and Baoyu who stay in the mansion all day. I thought the second brother was walking outside. He is also a man with a clear mind. It turns out that after being with Second Sister-in-Law for a long time, he has also been influenced by her, so he has grown up! Do you think that the mansion is the Duke’s mansion, and there are concubines and concubines in the palace, so you have nothing to fear?"

"Brother Cong, what are you talking about?" Jia Lian was a little displeased: "I know you have problems with Rongguo Mansion, but don't belittle our family like that!"

"Belittle?" Jia Cong sighed, "I used to think that the Rongguo Mansion was very impressive, but after becoming a teacher and becoming an official, I realized that I was just a frog at the bottom of the well. Brother Lian, let me ask you, Ningrong and the Rongguo Mansions How many people have real jobs now? There is probably a political uncle, a fifth-rank member who has not been promoted for many years, and he is just dawdling in the Ministry of Industry. The rest of the people, including you, only have a false title or donated money. The official position is nothing more than a good name, which is called power? The family is afraid that the economy will also be in distress, and they will not be able to make ends meet, so they will have to deal with big things by dumping old things?"

"The noble concubine in the palace, can she really be counted on? I heard that the eunuchs in the palace often come to fight the autumn wind. When did you hear that there was a favorite concubine who was so miserable that even the eunuchs couldn't restrain her and told them to blackmail her natal family? "

After hearing this, Jia Lian's face turned pale and he was speechless for a while.He bowed his head and thought for a long time, thanked Jia Cong, stood up staggeringly, and was about to rush back to question Wang Xifeng.

"Second brother Lian, if you open your mouth and ask questions like this, I'm afraid that the second sister-in-law will never admit it, but will instead say that I hold a grudge against him and slander him." Jia Cong also suggested: "You might as well inquire secretly and interrogate her. Her confidant. Maybe she has done other things besides usury. If she finds out, it will be a blessing to get rid of the disaster as soon as possible!"

Go and investigate carefully, and you will be able to discover all kinds of crimes committed by Wang Xifeng.Whether you help her make up for it and force her to rein in the precipice, the two of you will both escape unharmed in the future; or you find out that Wang Xifeng sent someone to report on you, and after you found out that Wang Xifeng sent someone to report you, and you couldn't bear it, you parted ways with her, a farewell to each other. Either way, they all won a way out for themselves!

If everything comes to light, you will still be suppressed by the old lady, shrink back in fear of the power of the Wang family, and let it go, that is your fate.He who helps himself can be helped!Leave it all to destiny.I have already done my best!

Jia Cong looked at Jia Lian's back and thought for a long time in silence.Seeing the setting sun, looking very much like the desperate Jia family, I felt melancholy in my heart.The world is long, life is impermanent
