Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

Chapter 171 I'm Not a Fairyland 16

After listening to Wang Xifeng's return, Jia's mother pressed her lips tightly, feeling very disappointed in her heart.She thought that if she could borrow 20 taels of silver from the Lin family, she would be able to pay almost half of the cost of building the family-friendly villa.At worst, it cannot be less than 10 taels.Of course, Lin Ruhai may not agree immediately, but she is not very worried about this.

Regarding the future of Yuanchun and the Jia family, she had already decided that no matter how stalking she was, she would use filial piety and Jia Daishan's support and love for Lin Ruhai in the past to talk about it, and move out of Jia Min to move people with love, and she can still do it when necessary. Go to the Lin Mansion to see your son-in-law and granddaughter in person, and plead with them.It is expected that a noble scholar like Lin Ruhai will not be able to save face, and Lin Daiyu, as a granddaughter, has no reason to be mean to her grandmother.

The mother of Jia at this time is not the same as in the original book.She has never been with Lin Daiyu before, and Lin Daiyu's attitude towards her is not close, and she does not have much love for Lin Daiyu.Therefore, now that she has come up with the idea of ​​the Lin family, she has no psychological burden.

However, the prerequisite for borrowing money is that the Lin family must be rich!

Who would have thought that the Lin family would be able to pull out all the money in such a way that there was nothing left!Under such circumstances, Mother Jia also felt that there was nothing she could do.Where did the money for the construction of the family-visiting villa come from? Could it be that the Jia family is going to be hurt and use their old foundation?

"How could there be such a coincidence?" Madam Wang's expression turned ugly when she heard about it, and she snorted coldly, "Could it be the Lin family's evasion?"

"Or, after they knew the emperor's order to visit relatives, they were afraid that our family would borrow money, so they rushed to buy land and shop?" Mrs. Wang thought for a while, and then said with a gloomy face: "It's a good opportunity to change your mind, We can't think of it anymore!"

"Ma'am, that's not it!" Wang Xifeng sighed, "I was as suspicious as my wife at first, but after I checked it out, the Lin family started running the ranch that was bought and sold when they were in the south of the Yangtze River; The housekeeper made the decision and paid the deposit first, and paid all the money after the Lin family arrived in the capital."

"That was when" Wang Xifeng said here, hesitating: "It was a few days after sister Lin came to visit our house for the first time and went back angrily. It took about ten days for our family to inquire about it. They came all the way from the south of the Yangtze River, and they may not know about it."

There was a sentence that she held in her throat, swallowed, and never said it again: Even if she found out later, how could there be no reason not to resent the Lin family for being treated so coldly.No way, but thinking that the Jia family wanted to ask their own family to borrow money, they simply used up the money in the account.At least, when the Lin family purchased property, they would not want to care about the difficulties of the Jia family.But who is to blame, alas!

Wang Xifeng is clever, but she guessed half of the truth, the Lin family can still predict, right?

But she didn't know, but now Lin Daiyu knew the plot.She knew that concubine Xiande was going to visit her relatives soon, and the Jia family was going to build a beautiful grand view garden to welcome the empress who brought them the highest honor and pushed them to a dead end.

In the original book, Lin Ruhai tactfully donated the coffin to Yangzhou City at this juncture. Jia Lian helped him take care of the funeral, and even took care of the Lin family's business, and brought back the orphan Lin Daiyu.Subsequently, Jia's Grand View Garden was built vigorously.

However, in the first few chapters of the book, when Leng Zixing, the son-in-law of Zhou Rui, the manager of the Jia family, an antique dealer who knew the inside story of the Jia family, when talking about the Jia family with Jia Yucun, he said with certainty: Although the outer shelf of the house is not quite down, the inner bag is full!So, did the Jia family build such a luxurious and magnificent garden, as well as the huge cost of purchasing various things and theater troupes, did they fall from the sky?

It's nothing more than the fact that Sister Lin fell from the sky, allowing them to take advantage of the situation and make a huge fortune.

But in this life, with Lin Daiyu here, don't have this dream again!Before the promulgation of the decree of the concubine's family visit, Lin Daiyu decided to take the first step and spend all the money on the book, making the Jia family look at the Lin family's property in vain.

Therefore, Lin Daiyu earnestly persuaded Lin Ruhai that the long-term solution is to buy more profitable properties for the Lin family.Lin Ruhai thinks it makes sense, how much can the Lin family spend with just these few people?When he returned to the capital, he was thinking of getting out of the dangerous situation, and being an official in peace. After Lin Chenxi was trained, Lin Daiyu would marry a good family, and then he would thoroughly clean up his inadequacies and gain a good reputation. , Serve as an official with dignity, and enjoy family happiness.He just wanted to keep a low profile. He could save as much as he could on socializing and socializing, and the civil servants didn't care much about it, so leaving more than 2 taels of silver in the account would be enough. His daughter's idea was very appropriate.Therefore, with Lin Ruhai's strong support, Lin Daiyu's plan was successfully completed.

Mrs. Wang understood the unintended meaning in Wang Xifeng's words, she shut her mouth tightly and did not speak.She also secretly regretted it in her heart, if she had known this before, why couldn't she be patient a little bit!How to solve the money for building the garden now?

Jia Mu also felt very tired.What can she do?Tell the Lin family, you sold the field shop to 'borrow' the money to build a family-saving villa for me?Even if she had such a heart, she dared not say it. If word got out, Lin Ruhai would turn against her, and the Jia family would have their backs poked!

She sighed in her heart, it had to be up to the Jia family to spend more money, and the provincial villa should not be too extravagant.Seeing Mrs. Wang looking at her eagerly, and thinking of the boxes of antiques piled up in her warehouse, she felt distressed and sighed helplessly.

Without the Lin family's money, the family-saving villa has to be built!The Jia family had no choice but to mobilize the whole family, saying that the empress is the glory of the whole family, that the empress is favored and has face, and the whole family has great benefits. From the East Mansion, they asked for 6 taels of silver and a large piece of land. Yes, the garden that can be used with a little repair was incorporated into the family-senting villa; Jia Mu showed the majesty of her ancestors and forced the first house and the second house to pay 5 taels of silver each. 10 taels.They borrowed some more from the historians and the Wang family, and the family-speaking villa was built.However, this scale, compared to the original drawing, had to be reduced by nearly half.

Dongfu and Dafang, who were forced to bleed profusely, were full of reluctance, but they were shocked by Jiamu's accumulated power and the bright future they drew for them. Come with all your allegiance.They figured, since they have made real contributions in real money, then the empress should be rewarded in the future, right?

Lin Daiyu didn't bother to take care of Jia's family. Her family closed the door and lived their own happy life.Lin Chenxi has already gone to Qingsong Academy to go to school. She leaves early and returns late every day. She studies very hard, and the benefits are obvious.Lin Ruhai planned to let him study in Qingsong Academy for a few years first. After laying the groundwork, he would be eligible to study in the Imperial College. Lin Ruhai's official position could favor a son to enroll.

Little Pearl gradually got used to liking Lin's life, and regained the vivacity and joy that a little girl of this age should have.After being taught by Lin Chenxi, she understood that her fate changed because of Lin Daiyu's kindness. She was both grateful and yearning for Lin Daiyu. She studied with the nuns and understood many things and human relationships.

Lin Ruhai has both real talents and practical skills, and flexible skills. He has been out for many years and is familiar with political affairs. He quickly gained a firm foothold in the Imperial College.Lin Daiyu studies, manages the family business, and lives a very fulfilling life.

The paddy field fish farming experimented in the south of the Yangtze River has already achieved initial results.After this method was dedicated to the imperial court, the emperor also ordered it to be promoted first in the south.Because the time is not long, the results have not yet fully appeared, but Lin Daiyu is full of confidence, because this has been verified in history, she just needs to calmly wait for the flowers to bloom.

With nothing else to do, Lin Daiyu sent someone to keep a close eye on the Jia family, listen to the news from the Jia family, and eat melons quietly.At the same time, I am also thinking about how to make more contributions to the world as much as I can, and also to obtain more capital for myself in the future.

She has always had two worries: one is that if Lin Ruhai dies as early as in the original book, she will face the Jia family directly. Although she is not afraid in her heart, it is indeed annoying and it is best to avoid it; second, If Lin Ruhai is safe and sound, that's great, but in the future, I'm afraid I will have to find a good husband's family for her.But Lin Daiyu didn't think that she could find any good marriage in this ancient society where three wives and four concubines belonged to the normal.Wanting to pursue "a couple for a lifetime" is obviously very deviant, and jealousy is not a virtue that a virtuous woman should have.But if she declared directly to Lin Ruhai that she didn't want to marry, how could Lin Ruhai, an ancient man, understand?No matter how much he loves his daughter, he can't accept it.

Therefore, Lin Daiyu thought about how she could make more real achievements, to build a reputation for herself and the Lin family, and let people know her abilities.In this way, one's own right to speak can be greatly enhanced.The ancients said: A woman who has no talent is a virtue.Everyone thinks that this is a talent that the ancients did not value or even rejected women, but in fact this is a misunderstanding.The ancients said that if a woman has no talent, it is fine to have a good moral character, but it is still different for a talented woman.

If a person wants to deviate from the old ways and act according to his will, he must have a corresponding bargaining chip in his hand.Only great heroes can show their true colors, and they are real celebrities who are romantic, and everyone can tolerate them not taking the usual path.But it is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to insist on the equality of everyone in modern society here!

To make credit, the best way Lin Daiyu can think of is to find ways to get high-yield crops, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn. As long as there are any of them, it will benefit the common people, and the credit is enough to protect her for a lifetime.At that time, if he had some out-of-the-ordinary ideas, as long as the interests of the Lin family were not harmed, Lin Ruhai could not object.

However, this matter is not something that can be achieved by talking about it.Today's me is just a young lady in a deep boudoir, and I don't have this ability and connections at hand.The one who has the most ability and possibility to accomplish this great deed is Prince Zhonghui, who is suspected of being a time traveler.Lin Daiyu couldn't compete with him, and she didn't dare to attract others' attention because of it.

After careful consideration, Lin Daiyu felt that it is still necessary to start with the country's foundation of agriculture and mulberry. Even if there is a slight improvement, if it is released to the world, the benefits will be considerable.She suddenly remembered the "Mulberry Fish Pond" she had visited in Huzhou, Zhejiang Province, which left a deep impression on her at that time. Fish were raised in the pond, and mulberry trees and fruit trees were planted on the foundation. The fish pond and weir are sparkling.Especially in the afterglow of the setting sun, the fish ponds criss-cross each other, showing a romantic red color. The beauty is really refreshing.

Scenery is second, this unique production mode is very scientific, the low-lying land is dug deep to form a pond, the excavated mud is piled up around the pond as the foundation, mulberry is planted on the foundation, fish is raised in the pond, and the mulberry leaves are used for The silkworms are fed, and the excrement of the silkworms is used to feed the fish, and the mud in the fish ponds is taken up as fertilizer for the mulberry trees.Through such recycling, the economic benefits of "both benefits and ten times the harvest" have been achieved.

In addition to mulberry fish ponds, it is also possible to make fruit-based fish ponds, cane-based fish ponds, etc. according to local conditions.Most of this production mode occurs in the Pearl River Delta, because the water, soil and climate there are more suitable, but there were not a few fish ponds like this in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, such as the mulberry fish pond in Huzhou, which is very famous.What Lin Daiyu saw in her previous life was in Huzhou. Out of curiosity, she also learned about it in detail and was amazed by it.

Sure enough, a person must maintain a heart of unremitting pursuit of knowledge.This can not only enrich your spirit, perhaps, the knowledge you have learned unconsciously will help you a lot in the future!Now Lin Daiyu really feels deeply about this.

So, Lin Daiyu told Lin Ruhai her thoughts, and Lin Ruhai was quite surprised by this, why her daughter often had such novel ideas, although this 'Mulberry Fish Pond' seemed to have appeared before, but it was obvious what Lin Daiyu said The methods and principles should be more complete and advanced.Could it be that because Yu'er was born on the Huachao Festival, was she secretly blessed by the Flower God?

Lin Ruhai immediately sent capable stewards back to the south of the Yangtze River, and together with Han Zhuangtou, they operated according to the method Lin Daiyu said.If your Zhuangzi meets the requirements, you can experiment on your own Zhuangzi.No, I have to think about it, whether buying or renting, I have to do it as soon as possible!

After returning to the capital safely, Lin Ruhai finally let go of his worries about his personal safety and future, and the bowstring that had been tense in his mind could finally be relaxed.

While living comfortably, he also faintly felt that his body was slowly weakening, and his spirit and vitality were leaving him bit by bit.This made him feel heavy, and he thought over and over again that he didn't dare to tell anyone that the Lin family didn't have a long lifespan, and neither his grandfather nor father lived to the age of sixty.However, he studied too hard when he was young, and his official career for many years was treacherous.He couldn't help but be full of worries, Lin Daiyu and Lin Chenxi haven't really grown up yet, if so, how will they gain a foothold in this treacherous world?
