[Red House] Flowers are good jade circles

What Jia Lian went to inquire about could be hidden from others, but not from Lin Ruhai.After he got off the office, he immediately went back to the room and asked Jia Min, "Has Brother Lian visited you recently?"

Jia Min looked puzzled, "Lian'er, what's wrong with him, did he cause any trouble outside?"

Being able to ask these words means that there is no one, Lin Ruhai frowned, "Has your natal family ever asked you to borrow money in private, or asked you to do business and buy shares?"

Jia Min quickly shook her head, "Master, how dare I hide this from you, besides, they have any business avenues worthy of my investment." The family's shop, Zhuangzi, has both Jinling and Yangzhou, and she can't do it all alone Come on.

"I don't care about money, are you sure?" Lin Ruhai's voice was serious, and Jia Min was so frightened that he covered his chest.

"Master, don't scare me. Did Lian'er and the others do something?" No matter how stupid he was, he knew that something must have happened.

Seeing that Lin Ruhai didn't speak, Jia Min regained consciousness, and quickly said: "No, really not, absolutely nothing to do with our family. The master explained it before, I remember clearly, how could he commit a crime."

Only then did Lin Ruhai stretch his brows, "That's good. Since Madam said so, I will definitely believe it. Madam has done a good job. I need to look at this matter again."

That is to say, it will not be said now.

When Daiyu came to greet Jia Min early the next morning, she saw that her mother's eyes were turning blue, and she was concerned: "Didn't mother sleep well last night, let's catch up on sleep in the morning."

"Daiyu, do you know, forget it, it's nothing." Jia Min asked her daughter intentionally, but felt that she was suspicious, as if she was too preoccupied.It's impossible for the daughter to know about the money of the Jia family, so it's useless to ask.

"I don't know what mother wants to ask, but my daughter heard that my grandmother's family is very tough and has paid off all the borrowed money from Xia's family." Daiyu thought for a while, and it seems that there is only this news recently.Yingchun's marriage was settled, and Siqi devoted himself to sewing, busy preparing the needlework for the young lady, and there were very few useful news.

"Repay, repay?" Jia Min suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and paid 10 taels of silver. It has only been a few months, and he said he would pay it back. Where did the money come from.

It's no wonder that Jia Min didn't know about it. The two families didn't say anything about the loan, and only those close to them guessed eight or nine.Paying back the money will not be publicized, the secret is airtight, and no news has been heard outside.

Siqi is also a coincidence. In order to prepare for the wedding in the spring, he often deals with the steward and has met Ping'er several times.According to the facial expressions before and after, I can guess a little bit, but it is also very consistent with the facts.

"But something happened outside." Last night, as soon as the father came back, he went to the mother's room and didn't even enter the study, so there was something wrong.

"What's the use of being anxious for a mother alone? One person counts the shortcoming, and the other two thinks about the long-term. The daughter learns to be a housekeeper anyway, knowing that it is not a bad thing at all."

Seeing her daughter's calmness, Jia Min's heart also stabilized. She laughed and said, "I don't know who this girl looks like." Naturally, she resembled Lin Ruhai very much. Back then, he was also like this, so he won the title of the Duke. blue eyes.

He didn't hide it at the moment, and told Jia Lian what he had inquired outside.Daiyu frowned immediately after hearing this, "Is this a fatal accident?"

"It doesn't have to be his business. This family has nothing to do with him. I'm afraid he doesn't know the importance and randomly agrees to come down and stand up for others."

Daiyu shook her head, "Mother, don't go back to grandma's house for the time being, and see it later."

After comforting Jia Min a few times, he went back to his room.Picking up a pen to smear on the paper, adding annotations next to the names from time to time.

I couldn't stop writing this, and when Daiyu wrote down everything she knew, and spread it out for a look, the line was drawn out.

Jiuye took Xia and Sun under his command not to get the money, but to take the Rongguo Mansion for his own use. This was something she had already figured out before.But Master Jiu was obviously more sinister than she thought, threatening people with money was obviously not safe enough.

They must have known about the loan usury from the Jia family, and used the IOU to force them to take risks.How could anyone know if the deaths of these people had anything to do with Jiuye's men, anyway, it was now the Rongguo Mansion's responsibility.

Should this matter be uncovered, and should Yu Rongguo Mansion cooperate with them.

Wait, Daiyu put down her pen, there are still problems on this line that have not been explained.Due to the convenience brought by the previous life, coupled with the observation of this life, the matter of loan sharks was proposed by Mrs. Wang, but Sister Feng was in charge of it.The profit is half of Mrs. Wang's. If something happens, Mrs. Wang can push it away.

Rongguo Mansion itself is not monolithic, if Yuan Chun in the palace is required to cooperate, what good will Mrs. Wang get.

So, Daiyu stroked her chin and suddenly smiled.

Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng are interesting and interesting. It seems that I really want to keep a close eye on them and see what the hell they are up to.

This time, it will be a bit difficult to rely on playing chess. First, she has a place to go out with Yingchun, not like floating duckweed before, and second, she is afraid that something will happen to the young lady, so she dare not do it again. .

Xingguo is young, and it's not easy for her to come and go with some maids, but those old servants are not something she can hook up with.Even if he took her money on the bright side, he might sell her around.

There are old servants brought out from Jia's house beside Jia Min, but if someone catches him, it is too conspicuous. The married girl makes ghosts and ghosts to inquire about her natal family, and it is not good to spread the word.

There was something hidden in his heart, and when he went out with Ulan Gege again, some of it came out on his face.

"What's the matter, I thought you could hide everything in your heart." Ulan's chubby was holding a flower in his hand, and he didn't know where he picked it.

"It's nothing..." Wait, this matter seems to have something to do with Hong Yun, so he changed his tone, "Where should we go for lunch?"

Wu Lan rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Have you reconciled with my elder brother?"

Daiyu shot her a look, "What is it? It's just your elder brother." She said as if she was having a good time with him, her face slowly turned red, and she turned her head and refused to talk to her.

Wulan rubbed her nose and laughed, "I didn't learn anything else, but I learned how to coax chicks, but I'm also a chick." Spreading her hands, she was short and short, and when she spoke softly, others couldn't hear her.Only the servant girl who was close to her could vaguely hear a few words, her eyelids drooped, and this Gege of her own made shocking words repeatedly, so she pretended not to hear them.

During the meal, Hongyun had already ordered dishes in the private room and waited for them. Looking at the table of Yangzhou dishes, Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled.

Ulan ate fast, and when she was done, she bluffed and went to the shop next door, saying that someone had a new product, so she went with her maid, as if she was afraid that someone would keep her.As soon as she left, the whole private room fell silent, and Hongyun scooped up the meat under the eyes of the fish with a spoon and sent it to Daiyu's bowl.

"Ama always said that this piece of meat is the essence of the whole fish."

"Then you can eat it too." Daiyu gave him the fish eye meat from the other side.

"When I was young, I ate fish, and Ama and I were the ones who had the fish-eye meat. Erniang always laughed at us. Later, even the Fourth Emperor knew about it, and would coerce it to me during meals. But Hongshi was so envious, saying that the four The emperor has never been so kind to him before." Seeing that Daiyu's attitude had indeed softened, Hong Yun also relaxed, and talked about the things around him.

"The relationship between the fourth master and the thirteenth master is really rare. It seems that they have always been so harmonious with other elder brothers." Daiyu meant something, and Hong Yun really raised his head. No one would say such things for no reason talk.

"Jiu Beizi has been making a lot of noise during this period. As a nephew, you didn't say you cared." The fourth master and the thirteenth master have long been one. As the eldest son, Hong Yun must know the inside story.

So what Jiu Ye wanted to do, how could it have nothing to do with Hong Yun, after thinking about this, Daiyu knew what she should do.

"It's not that the money from Jia's mansion has been repaid." Hongyun even knew about this, so Daiyu knew that she had found the right person.

"Just pay it back, it's really bad." Daiyu stopped talking, didn't say anything more, and Hongyun didn't ask too much. He knew what was going on and sent someone to inquire about the details.

"Which family doesn't have one or two bad relatives, it's unnecessary. Just look at me, you should feel relieved." Hongyun has more than a dozen imperial uncles, more than a dozen aunts, and ministers of the court, and they are also very friendly. The royal marriage, including the kinship, is simply a long chronicle.

Thinking of this, Daiyu gave a "puchi" smile, "Who would say that about my relatives, they should be beaten."

"Then you hit." As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and handed it in front of her. Daiyu smiled and patted two fingers down, but was held back by him, her eyes sparkling like a deep pool in her mouth, trying to suck her in. Like going in.

Daiyu bit her lower lip lightly, "Let go."

"Ama said that I gave you a jade plaque back then, but I never saw you wear it." He didn't understand that at the time, but in the past few years, Erniang thought about helping him, but she asked Ama to stop her. He proudly talked about the jade card.

Daiyu was puzzled about the jade plaque, and suddenly thought that Hongyun had been wearing a piece of white jade around his waist all year round. It was the same size. The first time Thirteenth Master returned to the Lin family, he seemed to have given such a piece, and Jia Min wanted it because it was too expensive Go and save it for her.

"Er Niang has been slowly getting in touch with my grandfather's house during this time, and I think it won't be long before I come here, and I will be able to go out of the house. When the time comes, I will talk to your mother." Hong Yun finished speaking in a panic, with a flustered look on his face. But the words are extremely familiar, as if they have been practiced at home.

"Also, the Fourth Emperor will also discuss with your father, um, you, you..." Seeing that Daiyu has been silent, Hongyun's courage that he had finally mustered up all of a sudden leaked out, and he lowered his head in frustration , Could it be that she doesn't want to?If, if you really don't want to, it's because I haven't heard from her for so many years, that's why I'm separated from her.

The young man's mind was ups and downs, ups and downs, and he had already made up a picture of Daiyu's heart-to-heart promise with the person next to him. This heart suddenly shattered into slag, and could not be sewn together.

Daiyu didn't speak, she couldn't speak at all, what he meant was...

"It's my father and my mother. Why can't I understand? I don't know if Ulan is bored by herself. I'd better go find her." Daiyu said while laughing, feeling nervous. Very, the opponent is only as old as he is.

"I, I like you." Hong Yun felt a surge of anger on his head, and his intuition told him that he had to speak up, otherwise he would definitely regret it.

Daiyu's heart thumped, as if a heavy hammer hit the drum, making her numb.A strange feeling stirred up from his heart and permeated his whole body, and a blush spread from his face to the base of his ears.She, she was actually confessed by a teenager, what is the situation.

He got up and left, but was stopped by Hong Yun, who couldn't help but retreat, behind him was the cold wall of the private room.One hand was raised up against the wall, and the two of them were so close that the warm man's breath almost hit her face, making her dizzy and weak.

"I'm telling the truth, I didn't lie to you." Hong Yun was a little anxious, seeing the woman's face as bright as a peach blossom, and the tips of her ears, her voice became hoarse.

"Get out of the way." Daiyu didn't know what was wrong with her, but she didn't get annoyed, she just stretched out her hand to push him away.

"Oh." Hong Yun's face turned gray, he was extremely depressed, and his heart sank, his body seemed to be immersed in snow water, and his frozen bones were sour.

Seeing that he really backed away as he said, and lowered his head without saying a word, he couldn't help but lick the corners of his lips, "I didn't say I didn't believe it."

One sentence was like rain falling, and Hong Yun's limbs and bones were relieved, and his whole body came back to life, with a happy expression on his face, "That, that..."

"I'm going out to find Ulan Gege." Daiyu couldn't bear to see him stunned, so she spat lightly, opened the door and ran out.

Unexpectedly, the other side of Ulan Gege was more lively. A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl knelt in front of Ulan Gege, crying with snot and tears.

"What's the matter?" Daiyu hurried over and was relieved when she saw that Wulangege was protected by the mother. It should be that nothing happened.

"I don't know, isn't this the girl who rescued my elder brother? She has already been sent to her home. I don't know why, but now she suddenly ran to me and cried." Ulan looked puzzled.

"I beg Gege to take in the girl, otherwise the girl will die. What I don't want to leave is the eldest brother who insists on driving me away, please take me in." Taohua's words have already attracted some people to watch. Few people winked, apparently thinking there was something tricky about it.

"There is a dead end, what is the way to die, let me tell you." Daiyu frowned, now is a troubled time, and the monsters and ghosts who suddenly popped up, no matter how careful they are, they can't be too careful.

Taohua raised her head and saw this woman, wearing a sky-shui green dress, a skirt with jade rings that dripped water around her waist, slender fingers, and a gold bracelet inlaid with multi-colored gemstones on her wrist.The light reflected from the gem almost dazzled her eyes.

Even the maids around her were all dressed in silk and forged shirts, and they also had gold and silver rings on their hands, and one even wore a smooth gold bracelet.Thinking of this, there was nothing she could not say.

"Big Brother refuses to take in Minnv, and sends people back to Minnv's uncle's house. Every day, she doesn't have enough to eat and wear warm clothes. The cock crows three times and she has to get up and work without a moment's rest. I beg Gege to show mercy and save Minnv .” The voice was extremely bleak, and he pressed his head to the ground, crying.

Although Ulan was a bit lonely, but she was still young, and when she heard this kind of thing, she immediately felt extremely miserable. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Sister Lin gently pinching the back of her hand.

Asked instead of her: "Does your uncle have any children?"

Taohua didn't understand for a while, why the nobleman would ask this, but she still replied obediently: "There is a cousin."

"Are you eating together?"

"Yes, but..." My cousin is used to it, how could it be the same as her.

"Shut up, you can answer whatever Miss asks, and don't say a single word." Chen Xiang spoke, and Tao Hua swallowed the rest of the words in fright.

"Then are you working together?" Daiyu asked again.

"It is……"

"I think it's because of the poverty of my uncle's family. Do they also work all day long?"

"Yes." Taohua nodded incessantly, her family used to have fertile land, and her father was a beautiful carpenter.If it wasn't for my mother getting sick first and selling off the family's fertile land, she couldn't bear it anymore and left, and her father got sick again, so she borrowed usury because she had no other choice, and it wouldn't be like this.Back then, she was also a girl raised by her parents.

"Since they are the same as you, eating, living and working together, why can't they live?" As long as they don't abuse her, children from poor families have nothing to eat.

The onlookers could only hear the smell at this time, but what happened if the elder brother refused to take him in?

"Brother went out with us that day, and when he saw you being chased for debts, he was pitiful for a while. He drove away the bad guys for you, paid back the money, and then sent you to your uncle's house. Isn't that enough? What do you want? Do you want to be Gege in the elder brother's mansion? Please come early in your next life, reincarnation is a technical job."

Finally pointing out the most important reason, many people laughed, they clearly saw the wealth of other people's family, saving people is not enough, they have to save their lives.

Hearing the ridicule coming from beside her ear, Tao Hua wanted to cover her ears, obviously it shouldn't be like this, shouldn't she feel sorry for her and bring her back to the mansion?Follow Ge Ge first, but have the opportunity to get close to Big Brother, as long as, as long as Big Brother sees her, her heart is disturbed, and she can't help crying.

Ulan's eyes widened, without saying a word, she tugged on Daiyu's sleeve, "Let's go."

"Where's the eldest brother?" Ulan got into the carriage, still puzzled, "I obviously saved her, why is it still like this?"

Where did your eldest brother go, I really don't know, probably he left the private room and left through another door.This question was automatically ignored, and he said directly: "This is Delongwangshu. When you don't have anything, you think it's good to have one, but when you really have one, you don't think it's enough."

"If you don't come, I might really take her back." Ulan thought for a while.

"It doesn't matter if you take it back. Gege just needs to remember that she is a commoner. Unless she sells herself, she can't be a slave." Thinking about it again, even if Ulan doesn't understand, her family understands, so she doesn't need to worry about it.

It was only at night that Hong Yun heard his sister talking about Yimu outside, and he couldn't help frowning. He would have gone out and scolded him himself if he had known about this kind of thing.Reluctantly, in order to inquire about Jia's affairs, he left in a hurry and just missed it.

"It's better if the eldest brother is not there. Sister Lin said that if the elder brother is present, it will be troublesome. Although the trick of a woman crying, making trouble and hanging herself is old-fashioned, few men can resist it."

"Be good, Ulan, what else did Sister Lin say, tell me quickly." Ulan covered her mouth suddenly, with a frustrated expression on her face, "I promised not to say anything."

"Brother promises not to tell sister Lin, it's fine if you don't." Hong Yun was still coaxing the children.

"Brother is lying." Ulan was really not easy to deceive, and ran away with short legs.

Hong Yun was in such a good mood today that Master Thirteen thought it was some good news.After receiving such news, he laughed and said, "No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a good thing."

"The son is not for this matter."

"Oh, why is that? Could it be that he fell in love with the daughter of a certain family." Thirteenth Master deliberately teased him.

Hong Yun was annoyed, "Ama..."

"Okay, okay, no kidding, let me have a look, this is really interesting. What will the Jia family do, please ask someone to find out." The Thirteenth Master seemed to be talking to himself, which really attracted Hong Yunshu ears.

"Ama is going to let someone inquire about it."

"Hey, why are you taking care of Ama's affairs? Ama is not allowed to take care of your affairs."

"Ama..." Hongyun was annoyed again, making Lord Thirteen laugh out loud. Ever since he couldn't leave the house, his biggest hobby has become making his son angry.Obviously still a child, pretending to be an adult in a serious and stern manner is really hilarious.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, I'll go find you Uncle Fu." The Thirteenth Master also knew that his son was getting older, so he teased him very well.

Hearing the word Uncle Fu, Hong Yun's eyes lit up, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Then Ulan Gege would send someone to deliver a letter every two days, and from time to time, he would bring a handful of freshly picked flowers, or freshly baked snacks, or even freshly made powder or ointment from the palace.There are all kinds of things, eating, drinking and having fun, almost all of them are included.

The letter was naturally written by Hong Yun, and it was about the situation in Jia's mansion during this period.Sister Feng went to the doctor in a hurry, and Mrs. Wang sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.It seems that Mrs. Wang has already made a decision in her heart.

At the end of the letter, she drew a small dice. She held the letter and smiled.

Everyone was waiting for Mrs. Wang's decision, but no one expected that Baoyu would lead the servant to the door of the Lin family.Although Jia Min had lost that thought, she was still very kind to her nephew, so she quickly asked someone to come in and hug her, "Why are you here, and you didn't say hello in advance."

"Auntie, you haven't been back for a long time. Grandmother and I have missed you." Baoyu only said that he missed her and nothing else. He looked around and pretended to ask unintentionally, "Why don't you see my cousin?"

"Your cousin is probably painting right now. I'll ask her to come." Between relatives, it's time to meet and greet, but only when Jia Min is present.

Daiyu came, and in front of Jia Min, Baoyu was crazy except to say hello.Anyone could tell that he had something to say, but he didn't dare to say it in front of Jia Min.

When leaving, Baoyu took the initiative to say: "Let my sister give me a ride, I have something to ask her."

"Go." Although Jia Min was puzzled, but in his own home, the maid and mother-in-law followed, and he didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary.

"Sister, think of a way to go out tomorrow. I have something very important to tell you. You must come." Baoyu lowered his voice, whispered something in her ear, straightened up immediately, and did not overstep the rules. action.
