Baochai is a happy wife [Red Mansion]

Before Mrs. Jia could think about whether or not Jia Baoyu wanted to be engaged to Shi Xiangyun, news came from the palace that the palace allowed women to go out of the palace to visit their relatives.It's just that it's almost Chinese New Year at this time, and it depends on when the ladies visit relatives after the new year.

Then there must be a place for the empress to stay in the mansion, even if the empress did not spend the night outside the palace.

Of course, Mrs. Jia made Jia Lian feel uneasy, and the other courtyard of the province must also be tidied up and set up, and the furnishings here should not be bad.With so many concubines visiting their relatives, they must not fall behind others. With the grace of the emperor, those concubines can go back to their natal homes to visit their relatives.

If the Rongguo Mansion didn't do a good job, wouldn't it be a joke.

"It's clear." Jia Lian replied, how could he not know what the old lady was worried about.The old lady just felt that Jia Yuanchun belonged to the second wife, and she was afraid that the eldest wife would not be dedicated.

Jia Lian also had to do his best. After all, Jia Yuanchun was the one who served the emperor. If it was too shabby, Jia Yuanchun would say a few words in front of the emperor, how could their big house be okay.Inevitably, it turned into contempt for the royal family, so Jia Lian really had to do it with heart.

The brides in the palace visit their relatives later than in the original book, and some things change, which will have a series of effects.

The emperor originally wanted the concubines in the harem to visit their relatives, so that he could get a fortune from the natal families of those concubines.Those people have money in their hands, but the South China Sea rebellion happened earlier, and there was also the matter of Ji's family.

When there are many things and delays, this time has come.

The emperor still has to let those concubines visit their relatives, otherwise how can they make those people try their best to show it.

"It's just that there is not much money in the palace." Jia Lian still had to say this sentence. Jia Yuanchun spent a lot of money in the palace over the years, only getting out but not getting in. How could he afford such consumption.

No matter how much money the man in the house makes, Tiandi Zhuangzi, can't stand Jia Yuanchun asking for money.

Jia Lian sometimes thought, no wonder the Xue family refused to pay Jia Yuanchun, this is a bottomless pit.If the support was supported at the beginning, but then stopped in the second half, it would inevitably make Jia Yuanchun unhappy again. If the support continued, how much money would the family have to spend.

Jia Yuanchun in the palace didn't know how difficult it is to earn money, but those outside the palace knew it.

"Let's see, if it doesn't work, find someone to raise some money." Mrs. Jia didn't say it was a loan, but how could it be called a loan to build another courtyard for the empress in the palace.Those people can't be said to be lent to the Rongguo Mansion, they should also be filial to the empress.

It's just that it's hard to say this too bluntly, as long as the roll call is to build another courtyard for the empress, those people who want to come can understand.

"Both Lin and Xue's family should go for a walk." Mrs. Jia said, "Wang's family... let's go at last. The Ningguo Mansion next door can also raise some. The historian's side probably doesn't have much."

Shi Xiangyun is going to make embroidery frequently, and the Shi family is just an empty shell, and Mrs. Jia doesn't want her natal family to pay for it.It's just that it doesn't work. If everyone else is out, the historians alone will be out. What kind of talk is that.

"Then listen to the old ancestors." Jia Lian laughed.

"By the way, you can also take a look at Baochai." Mrs. Jia heard that Xue Baochai's makeup shop was very profitable, and Xue Baochai married a member of the royal family, so she presumably had a lot of money in hand.

"..." Jia Lian smiled, but also to see if he could ask for money.

How could Jia Lian not know what Mrs. Jia meant, that is to let those people take the initiative to send money, or not to pay it back.But don't treat people as fools, it's okay to give a little money, but it's impossible to give too much money.

But with Mrs. Jia's order, Jia Lian still had to look for it. It was impossible for Dafang to pay so much money.As for the skills to be mentioned at that time, it depends on what he said, but no matter how tactful it is, it may not be a good thing. Asking someone for money is asking for money. In essence, the Lin family cannot be changed. Jia Min met Jia Lian and learned that Jia Lian The old lady asked Jia Lian to raise money everywhere, but she didn't know what to say.

"Is mother confused?" Jia Min sighed, "There is not so much money in the house, so there is no need to make it so grand."

It took less than a day for Jia Yuanchun to visit his relatives, so why should he do it so well.The key is that there is not so much money in the mansion yet, and if there is not so much money, we just ask for it everywhere.But other people's money is not blown by the wind, so it is impossible to send it casually.

Jia Min said that Mrs. Jia had too much hope for Jia Yuanchun, so she still wanted to make Jia Yuanchun look good.This is not a question of whether the scenery is beautiful or not, but that it will consume more money from the Rongguo Mansion.

"The old ancestor said, it's not good to be too much worse than other concubines." Jia Lian said, "It's just that in the past few years, the empress has taken a lot of money to go, and there is really not that much money in the house."

He, Jia Lian, is not a fool either, it is impossible for Jia Yuanchun to spend all the big house's money.He also has a son and a daughter, so he has to think about his children.As for Jia Yuanchun, he probably cared more about Jia Baoyu.

"Well, I'll give you 1 taels of silver here, and you don't have to pay it back." It's not that Jia Min doesn't have more silver on hand, but she doesn't want to pay so much.If there are too many now, what about in the future?

Jia Min also knew that Lin Ruhai was a pure minister, and it was not suitable for the Lin family to spend so much money.

It is a lot of money that does not have to be repaid, and 1 taels of silver is already a lot. Some rich and powerful marry a prostitute, that is, 1 taels of silver is used as a dowry.

Jia Min didn't think that the 1 taels of silver was too little. Of course, it was much less than Mrs. Jia's expectation.Jia Min also knew what her mother thought, that is, these families had money, so they should spend more money.

However, this is really unrealistic.

"The Xue family..." Jia Min thinks that the Xue family is far away from the Rongguo Mansion. Mrs. Wang is in the family temple, and Mrs. Xue is also a married woman, so Xue Baochai is even further away. "Don't ask, If you don’t make it, you won’t make it.”

"My nephew thinks the same way." How could Jia Lian force others to pay so much money?

Jia Min thought of another thing, "Is Baoyu's marriage settled?"

"The old ancestor hasn't made up his mind yet." Jia Lian was helpless, Mrs. Jia didn't think much of Shi Xiangyun after all, and she was thinking about whether Jia Baoyu could arrange a better marriage for Jia Baoyu after Jia Yuanchun visited his relatives.The woman couldn't stand the delay, and Mrs. Jia still thought that the historian would marry Shi Xiangyun out earlier, so there was no need for Mrs. Jia to think about those things.

But the historian just didn't take any action, just waiting for Mrs. Jia's words.

Jia Lian reckoned that in a few days, the historians might approach Jia Zheng and let Jia Zheng decide.Shi Xiangyun often went to Rongguo Mansion, and he and Jia Baoyu were childhood sweethearts. The two had a good relationship, and outsiders thought they were a couple.

If there are other girls with Jia Baoyu's childhood sweetheart, it's hard to say, the key is the girl with a foreign surname next to Jia Baoyu, that is, Shi Xiangyun.Others felt that Jia Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun had made the decision early, otherwise how could the two families allow them to be so close.

Jia Lian didn't say much, Jia Baoyu was his cousin, not the younger brother of the same mother, so there was no need to care so much.

"I haven't figured it out yet." Jia Min sighed, she couldn't keep the girl from the Shi family waiting.

Jia Min didn't think there was anyone more suitable for Jia Baoyu than Shi Xiangyun. It was difficult to find another suitable family like Jia Baoyu.But she is a married woman, so there is no need to care so much about her natal nephew, so what if Jia Baoyu was born with jade, now it is a peaceful and prosperous age, it is impossible for someone like Jia Baoyu to have any future.

In troubled times, Jia Baoyu might be more capable.

"Then wait." Jia Min said.

After Jia Lian left the Lin family, she went to Xue's house. Mrs. Xue felt helpless when she saw Jia Lian. She didn't expect that it was Jia Zheng or Jia Baoyu, but Jia Lian from the big house.Fortunately, Wang Xifeng is Mrs. Xue's niece, and Jia Lian is also Mrs. Xue's nephew and son-in-law.

"Then our Xue family will give it to the Lin family." The Xue family's money was not blown by the wind, so it was impossible to give so much. Mrs. Xue thought that when Xue Baochai got married, the Xue family did not give Xue Baochai a lot of money. Wan Liang buys a dowry, and there are a few shops and two Zhuangzi.

No matter how much the Xue family loves Xue Baochai, that's the case. If you want to preserve the ability of Xue's family, then it is impossible to spend too much money.

Compared with Xue Baochai, Mrs. Xue did not want to give so much money.Why, Jia Yuanchun is just visiting relatives, and in less than a day, they have to pay so much money, just dream.

"Thank you, aunt." What else can Jia Lian do, of course, thank you.

It wasn't that Jia Lian didn't go to Lin Ruhai and Patriarch Xue, but that the relationship was mainly maintained by Jia Min and Mrs. Xue, so if he wanted to find someone, he could only look for these two.They can't go straight to their uncle, and those who are going to die will embarrass their aunt.

Mrs. Xue didn't say much, she didn't say that Rongguo Mansion didn't have to do so well.She is not from the Rongguo Mansion, and her relationship is far away. It doesn't look like Jia Min is related to the men of the Rongguo Mansion by blood.

After all, Mrs. Xue has no blood relationship with Jia Lian, nor with Mrs. Jia, that is, with people like Wang Xifeng, Jia Baoyu, Jia Yuanchun, and Jia Zhu.Looking at it this way, there is no blood relationship with the head of the family, so what to say so much, is it annoying?

When Wang Xifeng went to find Xue Baochai, Xue Baochai was walking around the yard, basking in the sun.And Situ Jin was supporting Xue Baochai by the side, and Situ Jin was worried that her sweetheart would fall, and she was usually worried when her sweetheart was not pregnant, let alone when she was pregnant.

The child in Xue Baochai's belly is more than three months old, and the belly is not obvious yet.

Hearing that Wang Xifeng's cousin-in-law is here, Xue Baochai can't see her either.Jia Lian didn't come over because Jia Lian and Xue Baochai were not related by blood. After all, they were outsiders, so it was difficult to find Xue Baochai, so Wang Xifeng had to come.

"It's probably for the sake of the concubines in the palace." Situ Jin carefully supported Xue Baochai, "Everyone is building a lot, and I can't wait to build my house like a palace."

Situ Jin knew earlier that the emperor had ordered some timber and other items to be transported to the capital, but it was all done in private.He doesn't care about those things, he just spends more time with his wife, and when his wife is pregnant, he can't do without others.

According to the emperor's words, where is Xue Baochai inseparable from others, it is clearly Situ Jin who clings to others.

"That's a matter of money." Xue Baochai understands that in other homes, everyone is comparing each other, so you can't lag behind others.
