The Kangping Life of Mrs. Xing in Honglou
Chapter 56
Xing Yue and Liu Shi carefully checked the belongings brought back from the Zhen family, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the items marked by the Jia family were intact.Although the Zhen family said it sounded grand and said that during the transportation, they accidentally capsized the ship and damaged a batch of items, and the Zhen family paid for it with properties of considerable value, so half of the things brought back were the property of the Zhen family.
Xing Yue asked people to check the batch of things carefully, and after confirming that there was no problem, he divided the property equally and sent the Liu family away. Xing Yue went back to rest and saw Jia Zheng drinking tea in a gloomy mood.
"Is everything settled?" Jia She asked after seeing Xing Yue coming in.
"Yes, master, I have checked all those things, and there is no problem. I didn't expect to get a windfall now. The old lady has saved a lot of private houses over the years." Xing Yue said with emotion. With the greedy money from the housekeeper at that time, and the filial piety from all over the rest of her life, doesn't the old lady have so many private houses?
Jia She's hand holding the teacup tightened again, trying to maintain a calm expression on his face, and said: "The old lady manages well, unlike you, she has only saved 3 taels of silver after entering the mansion for more than ten years." I remember the scene where Xing Yue exchanged land with him.
At that time, he never thought that Xing Yue was a master of housekeeping, let alone that Xing Yue would give all the money back to the treasury, and his mother, who had so many private houses, was actually not even a penny back then. To make matters worse, he took away half of the palace's cash, forcing him to sell half of his property to repay the debt.
In the end, Jia She still resented the old lady in his heart. How much trouble the old lady had caused him before he was alive, and made him feel uncomfortable when he got there. The property that was placed in the Zhen family was obviously left by the old lady for the old lady. It was only an accident in Er's family, and that's when he knew that his old lady was partial to her armpits.
Looking at Jia She's appearance, Xing Yue knew that Jia She was not fair, and said: "Master, this person's heart is biased. Didn't Master's grandmother also give you most of his private house back then? The old lady, the old master and two Master, I didn't get anything, and the old lady must have resented her grandmother's partiality at the beginning. Besides, it is the old lady's private house, and whoever the old lady is willing to give it to, it is whoever it is." Xing Yue persuaded Jia She, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law No matter how you look at it, the old lady is the best, but the old lady has gone, no matter how much a living person cares about, she can't think about it.
Hearing what Xing Yue said, Jia She was taken aback for a moment, it was indeed the case back then, like an old lady, she left all her things to him, Jia She felt a lot more balanced.
"In the future, when we go, the master can guarantee that the bowl of water is level?" Xing Yue asked Jia Amnesty, this person's heart was originally biased.The same is true for Jia She, fortunately Yingchun entered the palace, and he could not see the way Jia She treated Jia Wan, otherwise, he would be jealous and injustice.
Jia Amnesty glanced at Xing Yue, did not speak, picked up the teacup and drank it leisurely, and said slowly: "You should manage your private house well, in the future those will all belong to Wan'er." He had to give his little daughter more Xing Yue can't escape responsibility even if he saves some dowry.
Xing Yue was so annoyed by Jia She's words, she gritted her teeth and said, "Master, Wan'er is my biological daughter." How could she treat her child badly, Wan'er is not just Jia She daughter.
Jia Shequan pretended not to hear Xing Yue's words, and still drank his tea slowly. When Jia Wan staggered to appear at the door, Xing Yue just saw that Jia Wan was already in Jia She's arms, and Jia She's old arms and legs were gone. When he met Jia Wan, he was very young.
Xing Yue didn't care about the father and daughter, and asked the wet nurse who came in about Jia Wan's situation. Jia Amnesty listened distractedly to the wet nurse's report while playing with the precious daughter.The children in the family went to school, and those who visited relatives went to visit relatives. Only Jia Wan was left by his side, and Jia Amnesty did not hide his doting on the children.
After listening to the nanny's report, Xing Yue got up and was about to carry her daughter away from Jia She, when she heard rumors that the uncle's family had arrived.
Xing Yue took Jia Wan from Jia She and gave it to the wet nurse. He and Jia She went to see Xing Dequan's family. The Xing family is now considered a middle-class family in the suburbs of Jinling. Also strive for success, now the two elder brothers are scholars, the eldest son Xing Xiuming is the original brother An, and now he has ordered the daughter of the county magistrate's family, and they will get married when they leave the country. The second son Xing Xiujin is 17 years old this year. Jump off, not engaged yet, now seeing each other.
Xing Yue was very happy to see Guo Shi and Xing Xiuyan. Now Xing Xiuyan is 15 years old and looks slim. Seeing her coming in, Xing Yue praised: "Sister and sister, Xiuyan looks more and more youthful now."
Mrs. Guo said with a smile: "Elder Sister is too flattering." Mrs. Guo was very surprised when she saw Xing Yue ten years later. The appearance and figure of the eldest sister have not changed much these years, and she is the same as ten years ago.
Xing Yue dragged Xing Xiuyan to talk for a while, then asked someone to take Xing Xiuyan to the inner house to see Jia Wan, and said this to Mrs. Guo himself.
"Siblings, how is Brother Ping's wife looking?" Xing Yue asked.
"I'm still looking at each other, I haven't settled down completely, brother Ping escaped, and find a stable wife to take care of him." Guo replied with a smile. Ten years ago, she would never have thought that she would be able to live a prosperous life. A stable life.
"Is there anyone you like?" Xing Yue asked while eating melon seeds.
"Not yet, there is still half a year to go abroad to pay tribute, and I still have time to see each other, I am mainly worried about my sister's marriage?" Guo said, frowning.
"Xiuyan's marriage, Xiuyan is 15 years old now, it's time to make an appointment with someone else, my daughter's family can't afford to delay, but Xiuyan is a very good child, he doesn't have to worry about having a good marriage, siblings have nothing to worry about. "Xing Yue was a little puzzled.
"The master and I mean to find a scholarly family for my sister, a person with a mellow temperament, so I can rest assured, but it is really hard to find such a person nowadays." Guo hopes that her daughter will join a worry-free family, and she will live a lifetime. life and beauty.
"Things in this world can't be perfect. These days are lived. There are a lot of dowries in Xiuyan, so it doesn't matter if the dowry is lower. Ask Brother An and Heping, if there are any classmates in their school who are suitable, find A good character is better than anything else." Xing Yue said, regardless of ancient times or modern times, this woman's marriage is equivalent to a second reincarnation, modern times can still be divorced, and ancient women who were abandoned have no way to survive.
Speaking of their children's marriage, Xing Yue also remembered how he felt when he was picking a son-in-law for Yingchun, but unfortunately all the efforts he did back then were useless.
"Sister, Brother Cong is 12 years old now, so he has reached the age to say goodbye." Mrs. Guo thought that it would be good if her daughter married Brother Cong, and it would not be a disadvantage if her eldest sister took care of her.
"Brother Cong is still young, he hasn't made a decision yet, and he doesn't know what he will look like in the future." As soon as Guo Shi opened her mouth, Xing Yue knew her plan, but she didn't want Xing Xiuyan to marry Brother Cong. As seen on the surface.
But after what Guo said, Xing Yue began to wonder if there was any suitable partner among the juniors below her. Baoyu was the first to be shot. Jia Huan, who is also motivated and handsome, is a good candidate, but the father-in-law and mother-in-law above have a precious jade, and they are worried about marrying.There is also Lin Xin. Xing Yue denied it as soon as he thought of Lin Xin. Lin Xin is the only son of the Lin family in Gusu. In front of them, the Xing family is just a small landlord.
too much.
Mrs. Guo knew that the elder aunt was unwilling, and no matter what, Brother Cong was a child of a first-class general, and his family was a senior, so Mrs. Guo didn't mention it anymore.
Seeing off Xing Dequan's family, Jia Amnesty came back and talked about one thing, that is, he saw that Brother Ping was doing well, and wanted to tell him about Tanchun. Shou filial piety, wait for our family to be filial piety, brother Ping is twenty, and there is Xiuyan below, how can we wait until our family is filial piety." Xing Yue refused without even thinking about it, Tanchun is a strong one, marry once Wife, if this starts the idea of competing with sister-in-law for the housekeeping power, then the Xing family will be in tragedy.
"What a pity." Jia Amnesty thought about it, and what Xing Yue said was right, so he didn't mention it again.
Those who went back to Beijing to search for the Zhen family’s belongings soon received a letter, which said that the old lady’s property was indeed regarded as a private house by the old lady. There was only one thing in the big house, and the rest were left to Baoyu, and some of them are now in the relatives' villa, asking the master and wife how to deal with it. There is also a list of the Zhen family's belongings, which will not be many at that time, thirty items, 1 taels of silver.
Jia Amnesty and Xing Yue sighed. When the old lady went, she didn't explain clearly. It seems that she had to consult with the second room to rearrange the things in the family's house.
Xing Yue asked people to check the batch of things carefully, and after confirming that there was no problem, he divided the property equally and sent the Liu family away. Xing Yue went back to rest and saw Jia Zheng drinking tea in a gloomy mood.
"Is everything settled?" Jia She asked after seeing Xing Yue coming in.
