Jia Lu through the Red Chamber

But after Jia Jing's death, Jia Zhen was not a smart person, so she was forced to be raped by Rongfu with Jia's future prosperity and wealth. For the favor of several dragon sons, what else can the powerless Jia family offer besides money?

Even so, Jia Zhen and the others are not so stupid as to give up their entire belongings, and they are not their own daughters, it would be really traumatic, but after the house was ransacked, there was no windfall in the family, so they could only stay in Rongfu. Come to think of it, Lai Er, who was in charge of the Ning Mansion at that time, might have cheated a lot to transfer the Ning Mansion's furniture.

As soon as Jia Jingfu was reborn, after carefully thinking about the suspicion of Ningfu's family destruction, he quietly investigated Lai Erlai, the housekeeper who was deeply trusted by him. Lai Erguo had selfish intentions. People related to the Lai family are responsible for warehouses and other important tasks in Ningfu.

And the main line of the Lai family is in Rongfu, Jia Jing couldn't help being startled. After more than ten or 20 years after he left, Lai Er has always been the chief steward of the Ningfu. His wife, You Shi, moved out of the house, and she didn't even know that she became a vassal of the Rong Mansion.

In this way, Jia Jing took Lai Er down. Without this support, the rest of the Lai family lost their power in Ningfu day by day, and most of them were reduced to Zhuangzi. But as the saying goes, a thin camel is worse than a horse Big, that is, in Zhuangzi, it is also a big Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing. The master may come to play Zhuangzi.

The Lai family also thought that when the master came to play, they could hold the master to be happy, and then go back to Beijing in a splendid manner!It's just that there are many things in Ningguo Mansion, and the master doesn't like to go out to play. After waiting for more than ten years, Jia Lu and Jia Rong are naturally very eager.

Lai Zhuangtou's mother-in-law is a witty person, knowing that Jia Lu and Jia Rong are here to play, she leads them to play around.

This Zhuangzi is big, not only has hundreds of acres of fields, a small horse farm with ten or twenty ponies, a hill planted with fruit trees, and a small hot spring, Lai Zhuangtou Clever, someone dug out a hot spring pool, not big, Jia Lu fell in love with it, just now that the end of winter has just passed, the spring is cold, and the bubble pool is comfortable.

Jia Rong didn't have the nerve to rob Jia Lu, an aunt, and the pool was small, so she went elsewhere.

Lai Zhuangtou took Jia Rong to ride a horse. Jia Rong's skin was thin and tender, and after riding for a day, the skin was worn out, and he didn't want to ride anymore.

Lai Zhuangtou coaxed him to go hunting on the mountain again. Because there were few animals in spring, Lai Zhuangtou bought a lot of pheasants and hares and put them on the mountain for him to hunt and play, but Jia Rong was not Jia. Qiang, a vulgar person, is not interested in hunting, but it was enough to answer twice, but it made Lai Zhuang's heart ache enough.

Later, when I was wandering around, I watched the man in coarse cloth and bunt beating the hard land with a hoe. It was very cold in spring, and there was no heavy rain or snow in winter. Shengsheng came back from the shock, and saw that their hands were red, swollen and cracked. Every time they were hammered, the cracks on their hands deepened a little or two, and blood oozes slightly. In this cold weather, it condensed into blood clots again.

Jia Rong was born in a wealthy family. Although she thought she was not a dandy, she made careful choices about what she needed to eat and wear every day. When she went out, she kept a hand stove and warmer. At home, there was a fire burning in the warm pavilion every day. She never thought that someone would be in such a In one weather, my hands were cracked from the cold and I was still working.

For a moment, Jia Rong felt that the hand stove in her hand was too hot to lift, and then she got off the field row and called the man to stop.

When the man saw this young man in brocade clothes and knew that he was the master's young master, he knelt down to pay his respects. How could Jia Rong have the heart to let him kneel on the cold and hard ground again, so he immediately supported him.

"Uncle, you don't need to be like this, hurry up and hold your hands!" He said and handed out the hand stove.

The man looked at this delicate thing that looked like a woman, and said with a smile,

"Master, take it back quickly! Your thing is too hot, and it will rot if I touch it again. If it doesn't rot, it will itch and hurt when my hand is hot, and I can't do any work."

Jia Rong hadn't heard of the dead hand before, so she just thought it was an excuse, and said, "Then you don't use a hand stove with your hand, so how can you deal with it?"

The man glanced at his red, swollen and cracked hands, and said with a nonchalant smile, "Just rub it with chili water!"

"Spicy, chili water!" Jia Rong was dumbfounded and almost choked on herself.

Did he know that there was a penalty in the imperial court, which was to soak the wound with hot pepper water, and he looked at the ditches on the man's hand, so there are still people who take the initiative to be punished?

The man followed his gaze to see the wound on his hand, and knew that he was wrong, so he said,

"Of course, these openings cannot be soaked in chili water, otherwise the pain will definitely be life-threatening, but let the mother-in-law at home go to the chili water and wipe the places without wounds repeatedly, so that it can be cured. Frostbite like us It is the most taboo to bake with fire, soak in hot water, or touch hot things suddenly."

Jia Rong listened to what he said in secret, and dared not insist on giving the man a hand stove anymore. He has read a lot, and he has read a lot of remote books such as "Qi Min Yao Shu", but he has never handed in the book. What kind of people are they like, what kind of fields they plant, how many acres they plant, how they planted, how they harvested, and how the food at home is. Out of curiosity, they asked them one by one.

Listening to the suffering of the people, Jia Rong couldn't help feeling ashamed.

When I was nervous about participating in the test, the servants in the village were worried about the sudden drop in temperature, and this season's crops might not be harvested;

When I was watching "Study Hard" and had no appetite to eat, children as old as Jia Lu were fighting for a bite of food, and "children" as old as myself were working hard to save crops. With the protection of the master's family, one can imagine what about those other Zhuangzi, those civilians who have no protection from the master's family and only have an acre or two of land?

If Jia Rong still had some sourness of a scholar before, it has been worn away by what she has seen and heard now.

Maybe I will continue the imperial examination for the glory of my family, become an official, sell goods to the emperor's family, but at least I know where the "Gaoliang" of my Gaoliang children came from, and what the people who bear these "Gaoliang" are eating, What to drink and what to do.

And at this time, he also understood why his grandfather and others arranged these things, to let him put down the book and relax, but this was definitely not what his grandfather wanted. He might want himself to experience what was not in these books. Officials are the most easily overlooked, but the least overlooked.

Even so, Jia Rong still felt very frustrated. She was ashamed and asked Lai Zhuangtou to get a hoe to try farming with the man.

Lai Zhuangtou hated that he didn't know good things, so he just did some dirty work, but he wanted to please Jia Rong instead of disobeying him, so naturally he followed him in everything.

After Jia Lu was comfortable and bored, she went to find Jia Rong, and was taken aback by Jia Rong.
