The Fenghua Years of the Red Chamber

Jia Lian went to the south of the Yangtze River to buy a family villa in name, but in fact it was to investigate the case. After arriving at the dock, he ordered Jia Qiang to take Zhao Zhiliang and others to Jinling. The elder of the clan, Zhao Zhiliang secretly investigated the matter of the twelve houses in the south of the Yangtze River.Jia Lian himself took people to Suzhou and Hangzhou to investigate the affairs of the Lin family.

After Jia Lian arrived in Suzhou and Hangzhou, he first visited relatives and old friends, and then wandered around the flowers with his playboys to confuse the eyes and ears of the second wife.Lin Zhixiao brought people to buy, while Zhao Zhidong went to the Lin family.

Zhao Zhidong visited the Lin family in the name of Lin Daiyu, and brought a few boxes of earthenware as a front. The Lin family wanted to keep her out, but the Jia family was powerful and afraid of implicating their clansmen, so they endured humiliation and let her in.After Zhao Zhidong greeted everyone and distributed the things prepared by Lin Daiyu, he handed over Daiyu's family letter and Jia Amnesty's personal letter to the head of the Lin family.

After seeing the letter, the head of the Lin family immediately summoned the clan elders to discuss matters. In the letter, Jia Amnesty said that because Jia Lian was young and was eager to return home, he neglected to observe for a while, and was not strict in controlling his subordinates. He already knew about the matter of slavery, so he ordered his eldest son, Jia Lian, to come to check and ask the Lin family for understanding and assistance. He also attached a 10 taels of silver note to the letter to cover the loss of the Lin family. After verification, other losses will be returned.The elders of the Lin family have different opinions. There is a saying that the Jinling people of the Jia family are doing evil, guarding against officials in the south of the Yangtze River, collaborating with officials and officials in the south of the Yangtze River. He sent his son Lin Shu to Hangzhou to meet Jia Lian.

Jia Lian wandered around Hangzhou for more than ten days, and finally arrived at Lin Shu. Lin Shu handed over the Lin family's fund-raising account books and transaction documents to Jia Lian. Jia Lian looked at his account books. Immediately ordered someone to take another 20 taels of silver to Lin Shu and give 10 taels of silver as an apology.After this incident, the silver taels that Jia Lian had brought with him had been used up, so he asked people to take tokens to get the silver deposits of Zhen's family, and borrowed 5000 taels of silver from Zhen's family to pay the owed silver, and then returned to Jinling.

Jia Qiang lived in dire straits in Jinling, this time he came to Jinling, and was ordered by Jia Jing to inspect the ancestral property of Jinling. When Sanfang learned of Jia Qiang's intentions, he shied away in every possible way, and at the same time sent a young woman to serve him close to him. Indulging in female sex, he bribed his followers with a lot of money, intending to fool him.

Jia Qiang was originally put on display by Jia Lian, and it was Zhao Zhiliang who actually investigated the matter, and before Jia Qiang came, Jia Lian had warned him specifically, and did not dare to act recklessly after investigation.After investigation, [-]% of Jinling's ancestral property was embezzled, and the remaining [-]% of the business was not as good as before. Except for the down-and-out five and six houses in Jinling, all other families were involved in this matter, and the third house in charge was the most embezzled.

Zhao Zhiliang also found out that the original Jinling ancestral property was owned by the fifth and sixth house owners, but they were later replaced due to a gap with the old lady, and then deliberately suppressed by the third house.Since Sanfang came to power, it has become more and more rampant. The children and grandchildren of the family are all dandy children, rampant and domineering, and incidents of embezzling fertile land and kidnapping women often occur. Jinling officials colluded with them, making the victims dare not speak out. .

On the first day when Jia Lian came to Jinling, he visited the prefect of Jinling. In order to obtain proof that Zhou Rui had betrayed the master, the prefect of Jinling was a man from the capital. , the long house accounted for the righteousness, so he ordered people to hand over Zhou Rui's criminal evidence to Jia Lian.

As soon as Jia Lian left the yamen of the Jinling Mansion, he met a poor master. This Juzi, surnamed Guo, had a girl with beautiful eyes. When she was out, she was spotted by some beasts from the third house of Jia's family, and she was immediately taken into captivity. This girl was unbearable to be humiliated. Died by suicide, his father was in grief and indignation, turned into a seller and wanted to fight against the Jia family to the end.

The gatekeeper of the Jinling government saw this person, Xinshan stopped him, and said that the Jia family in Beijing was in the yamen, and advised him to return home, so that he would not cause trouble. Block Jia Lian.Jia Lian was well-known for his ins and outs, and immediately promised to return justice, let the yamen let him handle the case impartially, and borrowed the yamen soldiers for use.

Jia Qiang has found out that the third party committed crimes and embezzled the ancestral property, and it will be dealt with after Jia Lian arrives.Jia Lian wanted to rest for a few days before dealing with it, but when this matter happened, he summoned his clansmen overnight, and all the males from the twelve households in Jinling gathered in the ancestral hall.

After Jia Lian and Jia Qiang offered incense to their ancestors, they took the genealogy and asked Zhao Zhiliang to read the evidence of the third and eighth houses. Jia Lian decided to expel the arrogant third and eighth houses from the family. There were many grandchildren in Fang and Bafang, so they wanted to stop them by force, but they were suppressed and taken away by soldiers borrowed by Jia Lian.

The crowd was so suppressed by Jia Lian's tough tactics that they did not dare to breathe loudly. Zhao Zhiliang continued to read the other criminal evidence, which made everyone turn pale with fright. No one has ever been expelled from the family. The first three and eight households were deterred, and the other households did not dare to be demons.

After everything was processed, the sky turned pale. Jia Lian looked at the people in the ancestral hall and said: "My clansmen, the ancestors of my Jia family were born in poverty, suffering from hunger and cold, and had no choice but to join the army. They have all forgotten their origins, most of them are unworthy descendants of dudes, and there are few decent people. The family rules are corrupt and useless. Today's matter is to remind everyone not to forget the family rules. If there are any unworthy descendants like Sanfang, they must be dealt with according to the family rules , I hope you all remember. In addition, Jinling is the place where the ancestors made their fortunes and the foundation of the family. I hope that the people of Jinling will protect and cherish it, and swear to defend the wisdom of the ancestors."

In the morning light, the Jinling members of Jia's family left the ancestral hall either by being carried or supported by each other. After Jia Lian's outburst, few members of the family were not punished. Jia Qiang was also frightened by Jia Lian and dared not speak.Wufang's brother stayed in the ancestral hall, went forward to salute Jia Lian, and took out a yellowed letter from his worn clothes, and handed it to Jia Lian, claiming that it was the old man's will to be handed over to Jia Amnesty in person, but Wufang himself After the old man left, he was suppressed, and his life was difficult, and he couldn't leave Jinling.Seeing Jia Lian's prestige today, he handed this letter to Jia Lian and left.

Jia Lian didn't check it immediately, and took Jia Qiang to deal with the slaves, and dealt with more than a hundred slaves, including Yuanyang's parents and brothers. Asking the old lady to make the decision, being thrown into the woodshed by the [-]th board of the masters, and then dying of serious illness in the Zhuangzi, this kind of slave will not be released or sold, I know too much.

Jiangnan is bloody and rainy, and Beijing and Beijing are not peaceful.It is said that Jia Lian's two concubines were diagnosed as pregnant, and they began to be demons.Wang Xifeng asked the old lady to send the two of them to Zhuangzi to raise their babies because there was construction work at home, and she was afraid of a collision, but Mrs. Xing stopped her back because she was too young and waited for the two to sit firmly on the baby.

Qiu Tong was careless at first, relying on Jia Amnesty to give her, she looked down on Chun Xing and Heping Er, and when Zhen was pregnant, she became even more insane. , Pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, swearing dirtyly, such as a hen that doesn't lay eggs, Yin Ping'er ignored him, and pointed at Chun Xing who was pregnant a month earlier than her all day long.In order to visit her relatives' villa, Wang Xifeng was busy cleaning up the house and had no time to talk to her, which made her more and more rampant.

I don't know where she heard that the decoction that Wang Xifeng drank on weekdays was specially found by the second master outside. It can strengthen the body and benefit the fetus. Without Wang Xifeng's consent, she forced the prescription to take it by herself. After Wang Xifeng found out and reprimanded her , thinking that Wang Xifeng would not see her well, and refused to listen to take it on her own.

Ever since Wang Xifeng knew that she had changed her makeup, she paid more attention to the things around her. It is said that the place where she usually stays is the best orchid incense. There are tent clothes she uses, and the embroidery threads on them are also infested with orchids.These seem to have nothing to do with each other, all of them are coincidences, Wang Xifeng sneered in his heart, this was going to ruin her, luckily she was well prepared.

Speaking of the prescriptions given by Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng only used ten sets of medicines for the show at first, to lure people into the bait, and later ordered people to take the medicines according to the prescriptions, and took them every day, but the medicines she took were all prescriptions prescribed by the old doctor alone. son caught.This matter was not done by Ping'er, but by an inconspicuous little girl who made medicine. That little girl was loyal to Wang Xifeng because Wang Xifeng had saved the lives of their family.

Now Qiutong is secretly drinking this medicine behind Wang Xifeng's back, but she also loves sex, so she naturally uses the best orchid incense in the order. , something happened, she was writhing with stomach pain, and the doctor told her that the fetus was unstable and there were signs of miscarriage.

When the old lady found out, she scolded her as a demon queen, and hurriedly sent the two of them to Zhuangzi.

"Grandma, it can be regarded as sending people away. They have been restless all day, and they have a headache. Fortunately, that one is still honest and didn't make trouble." Ping'er said as he entered the door.

"Honestly, I don't think that's simple. Compared with Qiutong, that's a dog that doesn't bite." Wang Xifeng wiped her hands and said.

"Grandma still looks at the truth, Qiu Tong has been making a lot of noise all day long, but she has tossed herself enough, but the fetal position is very stable, and the doctor's body is very good." Ping'er said while waiting for Wang Xifeng to change clothes.

"Your grandma and I are also the main house, Ping'er, you have to be careful, maybe the eldest son in our room came out of her belly, live according to people's faces." Wang Xifeng lay down on the bed and said.

"Grandma, you?" Ping'er couldn't figure out what Wang Xifeng was thinking. She thought that according to Wang Xifeng's temperament, no matter what, she would not let him give birth to an eldest son.

"What can I do? The elder said that if I don't have a grandson this year, I will be divorced. I can't let the face of the Wang family be disgraced." Wang Xifeng threw the handkerchief in his hand and said in a strange way.

"Grandma, don't worry, being born doesn't mean you can raise them. There are too many children who died in the house." Ping'er thought he had guessed what Wang Xifeng was thinking.

"Go, ask someone to send some supplements to those two, so as not to let grandma and me take the blame, and get the name of embezzling pregnant women, let someone ask the doctor to guard in the village, and don't cause trouble before the second master returns." Wang Xifeng Confess to.

However, Qiutong is a noisy person, and he is restless when he gets to the Zhuangzi. He doesn't take good care of the baby. He competes with Chun Xing for the house first, insists on occupying the best house in the Zhuangzi, and then asks people to arrange it according to their own preferences. Falling red, I hurriedly asked a doctor for diagnosis and treatment, but at least the fetus was saved.

My nature is hard to change, after getting better, I started to toss again, good and bad, finally I waited until Jia Lian came back.Jia Lian was overjoyed when he found out, and after two days of patience, he went up to Zhuangzi, and happened to see Qiutong acting as a demon, shedding a formed baby boy. After some diagnosis and treatment, Qiutong managed to save his life.

Even so, this Qiutong still didn't know how to restrain herself, claiming that Chunxing deliberately harmed her, and that the child in Chunxing's stomach killed her child, etc.

Seeing this, Jia Lian ordered people to watch him and not let him out. He cherished Chunxing's son even more.

Conceived in October, Chun Xing gave birth to Jia Lian's eldest son, who died of a blood collapse.Jia Lian took him back to his mansion and asked Wang Xifeng to raise him.
