The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 348 Wood and Stone
Hearing Jia Zheng's promise, Jia Ke felt a tinge of joy in her heart, hoping to help Lin Daiyu this time, otherwise how would this lonely little girl live in this world in the future?Although Jia Baoyu was a bit useless and a bit of a showman, he was still very good to Lin Daiyu.

Moreover, Lin Daiyu's temper is not something ordinary people can bear, that is to say, Jia Baoyu can get along with her without any problems.
I just don't know Madam Wang's attitude towards this matter. The daughter-in-law that Madam Wang thinks of now should be that Xue Baochai.But if Jia Zheng agrees with Lin Daiyu, Mrs. Wang is unwilling, and there is nothing she can do.

If it were in the real Dream of Red Mansions, it would be nothing to marry the Rongguo Mansion and the Xue family, but the status of the Jia Mansion is different now, and it can be regarded as a top wealthy family in the capital. suitable.After all, the current Rongguo Mansion is not as dilapidated as in the Dream of the Red Chamber.

Although Lin Daiyu's father died, she was after all the daughter of Lin Ruhai, a doctor of Lantai Temple who patrolled Yan Yushi, and her status was much more valuable than Xue Baochai.It is barely suitable for Jia Baoyu.

The most important thing is that now Lin Daiyu can give millions of furniture to Jia's family home, which Xue Baochai can't do.Even if the Xue family is crazy, it is impossible for Xue Baochai to give all their belongings to the Jia family. After all, the Xue family still has a son, Xue Pan.

Both Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu have no intention of utilitarianism. They will write poems together in the future, and they will be able to spend this life happily.

Early the next morning, Jia Zheng came to Jia Mu's courtyard. At this time, Jia Mu had just finished breakfast and was sitting on the kang by the window drinking tea.

Jia Zheng entered Jia Mu's room and kowtowed to Jia Mu first.Then he stood up and reported to Mother Jia, "The son has something to report to his mother and ask her for advice."

"You can make up your own mind about anything, and ask me what this wife is doing." Jia Mu didn't care.

Jia Zheng hurriedly bowed and cupped his hands and said, "Don't dare, dare not, my mother is our Rongguo Mansion's Dinghaishenzhen, and I must report these things to my mother."

"Since that's the case, just say it."

Jia Zheng bowed and cupped his hands once, "Mother, the thing is like this. The current Emperor Long En wants to let the concubines in the palace go home to visit their relatives, but there must be a family visitation villa at home, so I am here to discuss with my mother this time. The matter of building a family-saving villa."

"You guys have already discussed it. Are you going to bring the eldest girl back?" Jia Mu sat there and asked casually.

"Yes, I have this plan, thinking that I haven't seen much in these years, this time the emperor opened Long En, so I want to take the eldest girl home, let her go home and have a look." Jia Zheng said My own words are like what Jia's mother said truthfully.

"Since you have all made up your mind, I don't have anything to say, just do as you want."

When Jia Zheng heard Jia Mu's promise, he didn't leave immediately, but looked around, and then stood there silently.

Mother Jia naturally knew what Jia Zheng meant, so she waved her hand and said to the people below: "You all step back."

The mothers and maids in the room quietly exited Jia Mu's room one by one.

"Tell me, what is it that makes it so mysterious?" Mother Jia complained to Jia Zheng.

"My lord, it's because I don't have enough money to build the family's villa this time, so I came here to discuss with my mother." Jia Zheng was silent for a while, and then he opened his mouth.

Jia Mu frowned, thought for a while before asking him: "What do you mean by discussing?"

"Although our family has been living a better life these years, we have just had some surplus after all. I'm afraid we won't be able to spend so much money to build the family-friendly villa." Jia Zheng said a little embarrassedly.

"Since the money is not enough, don't you want me to pay the old lady? That's all. The money is for you when I go. You take it now, so you don't have to worry about it in the future." Mother Jia said unhappily, After all, no one wants to show their body.

"Don't dare, don't dare, no matter how confused the son is, he dare not use the mother's pension money. What the son means is that it is better to use the dowry money from the niece first." Jia Zheng hesitated for a long time before telling the truth .

"Bah, bastard, whoever gave you this idea should be dragged out and beaten to death. Our Rongguo Mansion has not yet reached the point of using an orphan's dowry money." Jia's mother really likes Lin Daiyu. After Zheng said this, you changed your face.Regardless of Jia Zheng's face, he scolded him.

When Jia Zheng saw that Mother Jia was angry, he quickly knelt down and listened to Mother Jia's lesson honestly.

Mother Jia scolded a few words, and when she saw Jia Zheng kneeling on the ground and dared not answer, she stopped and said, "Is our house so poor? Without this money, can't we build a family-friendly villa?" ?”

As soon as Jia Zheng heard Jia Mu's question, he quickly replied: "Although our mansion has regained some vitality these years, the time is too short after all. In addition to the expenses of the mansion, there is not much money left every year. This is because the elder brother Give us an additional 5 taels a year, otherwise it will be beyond our means.”

When Jia Zheng said this, he was a little guilty. Jia Zheng also knew about the ostentation of the Rongguo Mansion over the years, and he was the biggest beneficiary. The reason why the mansion's money is not enough now is because they have been too extravagant all these years .

Mother Jia frowned when she heard this, but after thinking about it, the ostentation in the mansion over the years has become much bigger than before, and it has even caught up with the time when Jia Daishan was there.Coupled with the welcoming and sending, it is not bad to have some surplus.

"It's better not to touch Daiyu's things. My wife is still a bit self-conscious. It's important to repair the villa first." Jiamu thought for a while, but it's better not to touch Daiyu's things. Guaranteed, as a grandmother, she should give this thing to Daiyu.

Furthermore, Mother Jia was also a little worried about Lin Daiyu's future. Usually, in Mother Jia's mind, Lin Daiyu was the best match for Jia Baoyu, so that the two people she loved the most could always be by her side.

But Jia Mu hinted to Mrs. Wang several times, and Mrs. Wang changed the topic with other words. Jia Mu watched coldly. Mrs. Wang probably didn't want Lin Daiyu to marry Baoyu.

Mother Jia was also very worried about this matter. Since ancient times, marriage was the order of parents and the matchmaker's words. Since Mrs. Wang is unwilling, she has no way to force it.Now Mother Jia can only delay this matter to see if there is a chance in the future.

No, the time has come after waiting for so long.Jia's mother understood what he meant when Jia Zheng mentioned the money just now, but she still pretended not to understand and deal with Jia Zheng, and wanted him to tell the matter himself.

And Jia Zheng, no matter whether it was because of his face or because he was really filial, he really didn't want to use Jia's mother's personal money, so after hesitating again and again, he still spoke out Jia Ke and Jia Lian's ideas.

"Mother doesn't have to be like this. We mean this. I watched Baoyu and Daiyu grow up together. They were childhood sweethearts. I thought it would be better to ration Daiyu to Baoyu in our family. Then Daiyu The dowry silver is also our family’s own property, so let’s use it first. It’s not too late to pay it to our niece when the house gradually saves enough money. I don’t know what mother wants?” When Jia Zheng said this, his face turned pale. Red, he has never been so humiliated in his life, for the money, it is almost equivalent to selling his son.

When Mother Jia heard this, not only was she not unhappy, but instead she burst into a smile. She had meant this, and she had been waiting for Jia Zheng to speak up, but now that Jia Zheng brought it up, how could Mother Jia be unhappy.Since then, Mrs. Wang has nothing to do even if she disagrees.

"If it's like this, it's not impossible. If Daiyu is destined to marry into our family, and our family has temporarily moved her things, it will not be unreasonable to return them in the future." Jia Mu was smiling at this time. , full of promises.This time she was relieved, her two darlings could be together in the future, so that even if she died, she would be able to be worthy of her daughter who was under Jiuquan, and the money was nothing .

Jia's mother was really worried about Daiyu, and she was bullied in other places. Given her personality, she would die of depression in a short time.Now I am finally relieved.

Mother Jia thought for a while, this is just a word is not safe, if Mrs. Wang repents at that time, she has nothing to do with Mrs. Wang, and even if she punishes Mrs. Wang, she still has to look at Wang Ziteng's face, and it will be too late to regret it later up.

So Jia's mother said to Jia Zheng: "Since we have agreed to their marriage, we should go through the paperwork at a serious time, and this matter can be regarded as finalized. Does Daiyu know that she will use her money later?" It won't bother you either."

Jia Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief when Jia Mu agreed, and a smile appeared on his face at this time, "Don't worry, mother, I will find someone to write a document through the official media. Let them exchange tokens. That's all for the time being. After all, the niece has double filial piety, and it's not good for them to make a fuss at this time."

Jia's mother was very satisfied with Jia Zheng's arrangement.Jia Zheng considered everything this time, and it can be regarded as a complete success.

"Since that's the case, you should get these things done early, and when the time comes, come to me with the marriage certificate to pick up the keys, and build a villa for your mother early so that she can come back to visit her relatives." Mother Jia was still a little worried, and urged Jia Zheng A few words.

At this time, the mandarin duck outside had heard Jia Mu and Jia Zheng's conversation through the window, and she was also a little happy after hearing this.

After thinking about it in his heart, he told the little maid next to him: "You stay here and watch. If the old lady has anything to do, please watch for a while, and I will be back soon."

After Yuanyang gave her orders, she turned around and went to Daiyu's house.

After Yuanyang came to Lin Daiyu's room, she saw Lin Daiyu sitting in front of the bed playing Jiulianhuan.Zijuan was at the side giving her advice, but the more she helped, the more busy she was. Not only did Jiu Lianhuan fail to untie it, but it became a mess.

When Lin Daiyu was angry, she saw Yuanyang coming in, threw Jiu Lianhuan on the bed, and said: "I don't want to play anymore, today I am getting more and more difficult to help you."

Zijuan also saw the mandarin duck coming in at this time, so she rushed to meet her, took her hand, and sat by Lin Daiyu's bed.

"What kind of wind brought the Chief Manager of our mansion here." Zijuan and Yuanyang grew up together, so they spoke more casually.

Yuanyang sat next to Lin Daiyu, looked at Lin Daiyu carefully, and then replied to Zijuan, "It was Zhuge Liang's east wind that brought me here. You have to reward me for coming here today. Otherwise, I won't know the news." I told you."

After listening to Yuanyang's words, Lin Daiyu and Zijuan were a little stunned. I didn't understand the meaning of Yuanyang's words.
