Chapter 762

In terms of Jia Yucun's ability in all aspects, it must be more than a little bit stronger than Leng Zixing.

But he is good at being able to let go of his figure!

Being dragged to a tavern deep in the alley by Leng Zixing, he didn't show any displeasure, and the smile on his face remained unchanged.

For this city alone, Leng Zixing is far behind.

As soon as this guy came up, he was full of complaints.

Nothing else, the life of the door-to-door son-in-law is relatively depressing.

Although there is no need to worry about food and clothing, even in the capital city, it is considered a small fortune, but people's pursuit is naturally getting higher and higher, and there is no end to it.

As a door-to-door son-in-law, he naturally has no right to speak at home.

Even the children born cannot be named after him.

At the beginning, he naturally had no confidence and no courage to resist.

But as time went by, helping his father-in-law and mother-in-law to dig the corners of Rongfu, the capital in his hands gradually became richer. After being called Boss Leng for a long time, his mind naturally changed.

Of course, it was just a matter of thought, and I would never dare to ask him to resist.

These words are usually kept in my heart, but now I met my old friend Jia Yucun, whom I haven't seen for many years, and poured them all out after a few drinks.

Naturally, Jia Yucun could only comfort him repeatedly, but he was quite disdainful and unhappy in his heart.

Leng Zixing's complaints sounded like showing off to him.

You know, since he was dismissed from office, he is just a down-and-out Jinshi.

With the experience of being an official, there are many needs for money.

But when he is the enlightenment teacher of the young lady of the rich and powerful family, the highest is only 50 taels a year for Shu Xiu, plus some miscellaneous materials.

For ordinary people, 50 years of silver a year can already be quite nourishing, but for Jia Yucun, life is quite tight.

Fortunately, when I was the Enlightenment Mr., I didn’t need to spend on food and accommodation, otherwise I would only live in a more embarrassing life with the 50 taels a year.

On the contrary, Leng Zixing only needs to sit in the shop and sell antiques.

Because it is a no-cost business, selling an antique can at least earn tens of hundreds of taels of silver, and life is so leisurely and brisk.

Otherwise, how could it be possible for Zhou Rui's family to reach the level of the small rich in the capital?

The more Leng Zixing tried to 'show off', the more unhappy Jia Yucun became.

Seeing that Leng Zixing was almost drunk, he struck while the iron was hot and revealed his true purpose of coming.

"Oh, why is Brother Shi Fei interested in the masters of the Rong Mansion?"

Leng Zixing was a little curious and sobered up a lot from the wine.

"To be honest, brother Leng, my proprietor is the Young Master of the Rong Mansion, and I'm afraid we will have to deal with him frequently in the future!"

Jia Yucun chuckled and explained: "Of course, the most important thing is that I hope to re-enter the officialdom through Dongweng or Rongfu's relationship!"

Only then did Leng Zixing suddenly realize, and said with a smile, "Brother Shi Fei really asked the right person!"

"In terms of understanding of the masters of the Rong Mansion, although Leng is not the most powerful, he is also very familiar with the situation inside!"

"Oh, come to drink and drink, I would like to hear more about it!"

"In the Rong Mansion, there are two big houses and two houses. The owner of the big house forgives the old man for being greedy and lustful. There is really nothing to say. He is just a standard old dude!"

"The first son of the big house, Lian Er, is quite capable. He has already become a seventh-rank official in the Ministry of Households. With the momentum of the Rong Mansion, the future is quite promising!"

"As for the rest of the big family's heirs, there's no need to mention them when they're young!"

"It's the second master who is in charge of the second house. Not only is he the head of the Rong family, but he has also risen in the officialdom. He is now the deputy envoy of the General Secretary!"

"The eldest son of the second house, Mr. Zhu, is a student. He won the Jinshi this year. He has already served as a county magistrate in the local area. As long as there are no mistakes, promotion will not be a problem!"

"As for the second son of the second wife, he is still young, but he is very popular with the old lady. As for the future, I can't see it for the time being!"

Jia Yucun was a little surprised. This seemed to be a little different from the news he had inquired about in the past.

Seeing that Leng Zixing was drinking in a daze, he hurriedly asked: "So, the Rong family's children are quite capable, and the weather is extraordinary!"

Leng Zixing said with a chuckle: "Brother Shi Fei is really right, the Rong Mansion right now is indeed showing signs of revitalization!"

As he spoke, he still had a proud look on his face.

The corners of Jia Yucun's eyes twitched, and he almost swears.

Damn, since the weather in Rongfu is extraordinary and looks like revitalization, why don't you close your antique shop early to avoid accidents?
Of course, he wouldn't say it.

What does Leng Zixing's life and death have to do with him?
"That's not right, the Rongfu information I've inquired about in the past is not so spectacular!"

Jia Yucun asked curiously: "It seems that the Rong Mansion has not been growing for a long time, right?"

"Brother Shi Fei has a vicious eye, you can see it accurately!"

Leng Zixing reeked of alcohol, staggered and said, "The Rong Mansion a few years ago was not like this!"

"As for the source of the change, it only came about after the head of the Ning Mansion next door was replaced by Jia Rong!"

"The head of the Ning Mansion, isn't the third-rank Wei Lie General Jia Zhen?"

Jia Yucun was a little surprised and asked curiously, "Could it be that something happened?"

"A few years ago, Uncle Zhen of the Ning Mansion clashed with Prince Zhongshun, and was beaten and maimed by Prince Zhongshun's son. Now the Ning Mansion is his only son, Uncle Jia, who is in charge!"

"Can it still be like this?"

Jia Yucun was dumbfounded, and his first reaction was that there must be something tricky in it.

"Brother Shi Fei doesn't know, but Master Rong is a powerful character despite his young age!"

Leng Zixing, mouth full of alcohol, shook his head and introduced: "Since Uncle Rong became the head of the Ning Mansion and the head of the Jia clan, the first thing he rectified was the ethnology!"

"Jia clan studies?"

Hearing this, the first thing Jia Yucun thought of was the group of dependent teenagers and young people around Lin Ruhai when he was in Yangzhou.

It's a pity, he usually teaches Lin Ruhai and his sons and daughters in the middle school.

In the area where he usually moves, he basically has no contact with the teenagers and young people he trusts around Lin Ruhai, let alone any communication.

He had heard that these teenagers and youths were all from the Jia clan school in the capital, but he didn't know the specific situation.

In order to gain Lin Ruhai's favor, Jia Yucun spent a lot of thought and energy on educating his son and daughter.

In addition, Lin Ruhai's eldest daughter, Lin Daiyu, is indeed extremely intelligent, and her academic progress is quite astonishing. She has already started to study the Four Books and Five Classics at a young age.

Being able to teach such gifted students is a great sense of accomplishment, but also a lot of pressure.

Most of his energy is devoted to teaching Lin Ruhai and his sons and daughters, so he is naturally a little slow to understand the information from the outside world.

If he hadn't left Yangzhou on an official ship with the Lin family, he still didn't know what Lin Ruhai had done to be transferred from such a fat job as the inspector of salt and censor...
