Through the Red Mansion: I Love Sister Lin

And said that Jia Lian was going to ask Jia's mother for advice immediately. Sister Feng gave him a sideways look and said angrily, "What's the hurry? I have to ask what the old lady does, whether she likes it or not."

Jia Lian laughed and said, "That's right. I'll tell the boy to go."

Without saying a word, Ping'er came in and said: "I found out clearly, the old lady likes it today, and now she is hugging the cat and listening to the little girl Ling'er read the opera."

Sister Feng said: "Okay, it's time. Let's go now."

Baoyu secretly praised Sister Feng for her thoughtfulness.

The three of them went to Jiamu's side.

Sure enough, Mother Jia was lying on the couch, stroking the cat while listening to Linger read the opera.

Yuanyang smiled and Mimi beat her leg.

Ling'er was holding a book, sitting on the twig in front of Jia's mother, and read it word by word.When I read something interesting, the old and the young looked at each other and smiled, just like a pair of grandparents and grandchildren.

Please greet the three of you.

Sister Feng went up to Jiamu's ear and said a few words with a smile.

Mother Jia thought for a moment, looked at Yuanyang and nodded.Yuanyang understood, took Ling'er down, and dismissed all the maids and women who were standing there, and waited outside from a distance.

Baoyu smiled and presented a cartoon Baoyu puppet, and said: "I asked the girl to make this, to make my ancestors happy. Does the ancestor look like your Baoyu?"

Jia Mu said happily, "Oh, how pitiful you are!" Putting on the glasses and taking a closer look, she said with a smile, "You three are here to say hello, don't you just send this?"

Jia Lianfeng then said that she wanted to open a shop.

Baoyu said his idea again.

Mother Jia was silent.After a while, he raised his voice and shouted: "Mandarin ducks come!"

Yuanyang came in and said with a smile: "What is the old lady's order?"

Jia Mu said: "Go and see if the second master and his wife have time to spare. If you have time to spare, tell them I have something to say and tell them to come over immediately."

The mandarin duck replied yes, and retreated.

Jia Lian, Sister Feng and Baoyu looked at each other, uneasy.

Baoyu laughed and said, "Isn't the old ancestor happy? I have studied hard, old lady, don't call the master to beat me." As he spoke, he sat next to Jiamu, with his arms wrapped around his body.

Baoyu, who was caressed by Jia's mother, smiled and said, "Okay, what are you doing for hitting you? I think he dares to do it?"

Both Sister Feng and Jia Lian laughed.

Suddenly Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang came.Please ask Jia Muan and sit down.

The three of Jia Lian invited Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang to be safe.

Everyone sat down, the girl brought tea, and retreated, leaving only mandarin ducks to serve.

Jia Mu ordered Jia Lian and the three of them to repeat the previous words.

Jia Mu said, "What do you mean?"

Jia Zheng bowed his head in thought and remained silent. Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Zheng and said respectfully, "As the old lady says, so be it."

Jia Mu smiled and said: "I guess what you mean. Although it is not the duty of people like us to do business, it's just that today is different from the past. I think, one more job is one more benefit, and the children and grandchildren will benefit from it." It’s not necessarily a good thing to have an extra way out. Since we have to care about face, as long as we don’t mention our family’s name.”

What he said made Jia Lian and Feng's heart determined, and Baoyu admired the old man's wisdom even more.

Ginger is really old and spicy!

Jia Zheng bowed his head and said in embarrassment: "What mother said is absolutely true! These things should be worried about by sons, but mothers are worried about them. This is really the most unfilial son."

Jiamu said with a smile: "Why do you have to talk about two different families? I heard you discussing how to put more farms and houses near the ancestral tombs to prepare for the sacrifices. This is a serious matter. , it’s hard for you to have a heart. You can make decisions about the big things outside, so naturally I don’t need to worry about it.”

Jia Zheng said, "Zhen'er has personally brought two mature and prudent people to do it. Don't worry, the old lady."

Jia Mu nodded and sighed again: "That's it, very good.

While I am still healthy and healthy, I have to help with the cooking of the things inside.

What is rare is your heart.It's even rarer that your daughter-in-law is a sensible person.It's not like your elder brother, who doesn't know how to take care of himself all day long, and it's not easy to be an official. He knows how to drink with his little wife all day long, so I can't count on him.The eldest wife has such a temper, and it is difficult to speak.

So I only discuss with you and your wife.

You don't need to worry about it, just leave it to their brothers to toss anyway, at worst, you will pay a few taels of silver.

There is only one sentence to tell you, if their brothers use people or money, you should help them secretly. "

Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang nodded yes.

Mother Jia nodded and smiled in satisfaction, and said to Yuanyang, "Go and get that nanmu box.

. "

For a while, the mandarin duck came carrying a heavy nanmu box.Open it to see a box of white silver ingots.

Jia Mu said: "This is a little money I saved for myself. Even the silver and the bank notes below are 5000 taels in total. Baoyu, Lian'er, you take it and use it."

Baoyu was overjoyed.One must know that based on purchasing power conversion, 5000 taels of silver is at least equivalent to 3 yuan in the previous life!And my monthly payment is only two taels a month.The old lady was really bold, and she paid [-] yuan when she made a move.

Seeing this, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang looked at each other.Mrs. Wang said: "We also pay 5000 taels."

Baoyu laughed and said, "Oh, our brother has made a fortune. There is no need to open this shop, we can just share the money!"

Several people laughed while talking.Jia Zheng laughed and scolded "glib".

Jiamu said with a smile: "My darling, you are a little early. I have something to say."

Jia Lian and Baoyu said, "Please tell me, ancestor."

Jia Mu said: "I mean, when you brothers do business, it is natural for our family to benefit, and you should also get some private money. In the future, the shop will have a profit, or it will be settled every month, or half a year or a year, and the profit will be earned." Forty percent goes to the public, and the other sixty percent is shared equally between you brothers, how about it?"

The rest of the people all took advantage of their wishes, and they were all fair.

Jia Zheng laughed and said, "The old lady only loves her grandson and not her son, and my son feels wronged."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "How about you?"

Jia Zheng said, "This will fall on Baoyu."

Baoyu looked at his eyes and guessed it, and said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, I will use more snacks, and my homework will not be missed. Next year the imperial examination will come back, and tomorrow I will learn from Uncle Lin to take the exam.

It's not that my son is bragging, I still have a bit of spirituality in my head, who made me have a smart and motivated father. "

Everyone laughed, and Jia Zheng laughed too.Feeling warm and weird.For a moment, I can't remember blaming Baoyu for being "glib".

How many years have you not enjoyed the worship of your own son?This taste is really not bad!

Seeing their father and son like this, Mrs. Wang felt comforted.

Jia Mufeng and the others wondered secretly.When did Xindao Baoyu become so courageous and dare to tease the master.It seems that the master is still very useful, which is really strange.

The current plan has been decided.

Because Jia Mu was tired of talking, Jia Zheng, his wife and Baoyu resigned.

Jia Zheng called Baoyu to his study and taught him his homework, and he was quite satisfied.He also blamed him for uttering wild words in front of people.

Baoyu laughed and said, "If my son is really in high school in the future, and my father decides, what if I marry my younger sister Lin?"

Jia Zheng was horrified when he heard this.
