Red Mansion Huacai

Chapter 245 Living next to each other
Wang Xifeng felt strange in her heart, but she also knew that Brother Jian was not to blame just now, because her face was red with embarrassment, but she didn't say anything else. Seeing the little maid Feng'er following behind, Wang Xifeng said truthfully: "Brother Jian, I am the heir of the eldest master. Unexpectedly, it fell on your second brother. I have to go and deal with your second brother about this matter." Let’s discuss it.”

Li Weijian pondered for a moment and said in a low voice, "Isn't the second sister-in-law going to discuss with my wife?"

Wang Xifeng was surprised, then nodded and said: "Now that my wife is in charge, I have to tell my wife about this matter."

Li Weijian shook his head and said, "Second sister-in-law is confused."

"what?"

"After the father dies, the son succeeds, and the elder brother succeeds the younger brother. How can a housewife say anything about my thousand-year-old Chinese etiquette? It's not easy for an old lady to say anything about this, let alone a wife. If my wife has the temerity later, Interjection, after the investigation, it was found out that it was the second sister-in-law who gave me the advice, I'm afraid that the old man will come back to look for fault with the second sister-in-law."

Wang Xifeng was startled and said quickly: "Thanks to Brother Jian for reminding me, otherwise I will be embarrassed this time. If so, then I will just go and discuss it with your second brother."

Li Weijian then nodded and said, "Second sister-in-law, just leave on your own. With Xichun's guidance, I don't think we will get lost."

Wang Xifeng's face turned as usual and she said with a smile: "Brother Jian is really good at joking. In this case, I am too slow here." As he spoke, he waved to Feng'er, and then Feng'er pushed Wang Xifeng along the path of His Highness's arrow and crossed the gate bridge. , walking along the corridor towards the outside of the garden.

At this time, three girls, Xichun, Yingchun, and Daiyu, as well as a maidservant, were all in the Aojingxi Pavilion. The little girl, Xichun, raised her legs and waved towards this side of the room: "Brother Jian, come quickly!"

Jia Lian's face suddenly stiffened, and Wang Xifeng asked: "Who did the second master have an appointment with? Could it be some daughter-in-law in the house?"

He smiled and nodded: "That's what my sister said."

When he told him about the inheritance, Jia Lian was surprised and said: "What's so strange about this? It should be like this."

Li Weijian's heart skipped a beat. As a second-generation man, he interacted with women in such a tactful manner. You know that I know things that outsiders don't know. He was sneaky and his heart was pounding. This was the first time, because he found it very interesting.

Ping'er said: "I don't know."

Wang Xifeng blinked: "You knew this early in the morning?"

At this moment, Yingchun and Daiyu got fish food from their mother-in-law, and were slowly tossing it around, causing koi fish to swarm in the water and fight for it. Li Weijian stopped in front of the fence and said with a smile: "The orioles are singing in the forest, and the fish are swimming in the spring water."

Xichun followed his gaze and said, "Across from the Jade Emperor Temple and the Cuicui Nunnery, that's Miss Miaoyu. She lives in the Cuicui Nunnery now."

He immediately greeted the general with a smile, and suddenly he saw Ping'er pushing Wang Xifeng in.

But he said that because Wang Xifeng's foot injury had not healed, although the two of them had been sleeping in the same bed in the past few days, they had never been close. Jia Lian's trip south opened his horizons. He knew the taste after eating the marrow. He could bear it for a day or two, but over time, how could he still bear it?

Xichun deeply agreed. She had been in contact with Miaoyu twice, but Miaoyu was too aloof and difficult to get close to. The little girl couldn't help but think to herself, no one with such a temperament could get close to Miaoyu.

Because today I went to find those many girls again, and sent my confidant to give up my money, hoping to have a good time before the dinner party.

Li Weijian was about to speak when he suddenly saw a misty figure walking out of the stone wall on the other side. After taking a brief look, I felt that it looked familiar.

Li Weijian said: "She is floating freely in the clouds. We commoners should just live and hang out in this mundane world."

The second sister Yingchun quietly stopped beside Li Weijian. Because she didn't read much, she didn't know the origin of these two sentences, but she felt a little weird in her heart. Na Xichun simply pointed it out and said, "How come Fourth Brother Jian and Sister Lin seem to be playing riddles?"

Daiyu immediately burst into laughter and welcomed the spring with laughter. Xichun said angrily: "Brother Jian is bullying!"

After thinking for a while, he said in a voice like an oriole: "I think it should be 'If the pond is clear, the water is shallow, but when the lotus moves, the fish will scatter.'"

Feng'er opened the curtain first and then heard Jia Lian say: "He's finally here."

This sentence comes from a Tang poem, and the full text is: Fishing in the green bay in spring, the apricot blossoms are in bloom in the deep spring. The pond is clear but the water is shallow, and the fish are scattered when the lotus moves. Waiting for my lover at dusk, the boat is green and the poplar banks are green.

Li Weijian responded and walked along the corridor, with bamboo railings on both sides. The concave Jingxi pavilion was concave in shape. It was called a pavilion, but it had no walls on all sides and was only supported by red lacquer columns. It was a variant of a pavilion.

In a blink of an eye, I arrived at the study outside and looked through the window. As expected, Jia Lian was here.

But Feng'er pushed Wang Xifeng out of the Grand View Garden, and bumped into Ping'er who was looking for him on the way, so Ping'er pushed Sister Feng instead.

Li Weijian first looked at Yingchun, and then said to Daiyu: "I met him twice in Suzhou that day, but I didn't expect to come to Rongguo Mansion."

Wang Xifeng sneered and said: "Hey, I don't know when the second master became Zhuge Kongming who can pinch and calculate."

Jia Lian said in confusion: "It's not me who said this is the etiquette."

Li Weijian had just sent a Nalan poem, saying, "There is no such sound in my hometown," and Daiyu responded with "The sunset awaits my lover."

Suddenly remembering that he would live next to Brother Jian in the future, Xichun pointed to a corner door in the distance and said, "Brother Jian, you can come here through this door from now on."

After the words fell, the second sister Yingchun felt a little relieved, thinking that it was really strange that brother Jian didn't take a fancy to that wonderful jade. But Daiyu secretly thought that the fourth brother Jian knew the world but was not worldly, so he probably didn't look down on that wonderful jade. Pretending to be noble for no reason.

Xichun said: "The master also praised Miaoyu and said that she has a noble temperament."

After teasing him, he couldn't find any real evidence, and a major event was at hand. Wang Xifeng suppressed his annoyance, and when Jia Lian sat down, he started talking about business.

After the words fell, Li Weijian, Daiyu, and Yingchun all looked at the corner door, and the joy in their hearts could not be explained to outsiders.

As he approached, Xichun said brightly: "Brother Jian, look, there are many koi carp in the water."

Wang Xifeng asked: "Has the second master come back?"

Jia Lian hurriedly defended: "You are here to accuse me again. I am the only one here. Where can I find my wife?" His mind turned and he said seriously: "Such a big thing happened at home. I expected that you would come to the study to look for me. "

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Miaoyu looking towards this side, and then Li Weijian nodded slightly towards the other side. Miaoyu was suddenly surprised, then turned around and walked away with a cold snort, and disappeared in the temple for a moment.

............................................................

This is a Song poem by an unknown author. Daiyu has read a lot of poetry and books, so she has read them all. The lower half of the palace was full of grievances, which Daiyu didn't like, so she frowned slightly.

"Come here."

Sister Feng immediately sent Feng'er to look for him. Feng'er returned from Sister Feng's courtyard in a blink of an eye and only said: "The second master of the capital has not come back. I thought he should be out in the study."

Li Weijian was in a good mood, so he simply reached out and rubbed Xichun's little head: "Read more in the future, otherwise other people's polite words will turn into riddles in your ears."

Yingchun was puzzled because he asked: "Brother Jian, do you know the wonderful jade?"

Wang Xifeng felt depressed and wanted to blame Jia Lian for not telling her, but was afraid of being ridiculed by him for not knowing etiquette. I secretly thought to myself that although Mrs. Wang was calm on the face just now, she was afraid that her heart was eager to try. The master had just had trouble with her again, so no one could remind her, and she would make a joke later.

That’s fine! The titles and heirs have all fallen to the head of the family, so it is natural for him to be in charge of the family in the future. According to my aunt's character, I'm afraid she will fall out sooner or later. In this case, why would she, Wang Xifeng, bother with her hot face and cold butt?

Since she was Sister Feng, she told her, "In that case, as juniors, we will have to rely on the old lady to make the final decision later on. Don't speak carelessly."

Jia Lian was on pins and needles. He sent away the servants sent by Wang Xifeng, leaving only a confidant. He was afraid that many girls would come looking for him and Sister Feng would overturn the jealousy, which would not end well.

I was impatient, and suddenly came up with a plan, so I put my arms around Sister Feng's shoulders and said, "Is it better to stand on your feet?"

Sister Feng's anger suddenly rose. The second master still thought about these things at the moment of the big event, so he said angrily: "It's not okay, I just twisted it again. The second master can't help it, so he can go find the servant to make trouble on his own." Ping'er, push me back!"

At that moment, Ping'er secretly smiled and pushed Sister Feng away. Jia Lian pretended to be disappointed. When she walked away, she quickly went to the window to observe. When she saw that she had not returned, she breathed a sigh of relief.

After waiting for a moment, the curtains were opened, and there were indeed many girls coming! Jia Lian stepped forward with a smile and raised his hands: "Good man, you are here!"

Many girls pretended to refuse and said, "Second Master also said that I was so scared to death when I bumped into Second Mistress!"

"Why bring her up? Even if you see her, I'm still protecting you. What can she do to you?"

While talking, Jia Lian moved randomly, rolling onto the bed with many girls in his arms, not to mention the big commotion and shouting.

............................................................

East courtyard.

Mrs. Jia She and Mrs. Xing realized that their heir was imminent. Thinking that Clan Tian and Zhuangzi could see it, Mrs. Xing became a little careless.

After talking about making up for the shortfall, Mrs. When Jia Rui was alive, Jia Rui was taking care of him. Then Jia Rui was ignorant and unskilled, so how could he take care of a private school?"

Jia She pondered and said: "In my opinion, my old uncle is highly virtuous and highly respected. If I don't block his mouth, there is still room for discussion about the inheritance."

"That's how it is." Mrs.

The eldest master, Jia She, nodded loudly and said, "It is better not to rush this matter. Let's look at it later."

He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, thinking that as the leader of the clan, what would it matter if he was the head of the second family in the future? His eldest father can decide all matters at home. If the old lady dared to refute, he would directly bring out the patriarchal law. Hey, Lian'er works in secret, and Sister Feng sneaks into the second room. When the time comes, she will take care of it, discipline her son, and keep her daughter-in-law obedient - eh?

The eldest man suddenly thought of Jia Lian, and thought about the inheritance issue again. He immediately slapped the case and was shocked: "Oh no, this inheritance issue will probably fall on Lian'er!"

"Ah? How come it's all on Lian'er?"

The eldest man stroked his beard and said: "The inheritance of this sect has always been from the bottom up, not up. It emphasizes that one brother will succeed to the other, and the father will die and the son will succeed. The first one is Brother Zhen, and I am Brother Zhen's uncle. Don't I have to do it?" Did it fall on Lian'er?"

"this--"

Mrs. Jia Lian has always been obedient, and there is Brother Feng who is only close to the second wife. He is not very obedient to begin with. If he gets another heir, I am afraid he will become even more disobedient to them.

"What should I do?"

"Why are you panicking?" the eldest master thought, "Lian'er is young after all. I am not expected to be in charge of the affairs of this clan in the future. Besides, with this inheritance, can Brother Feng still be close to the second wife?"

Mrs. In the past, because the old lady favored the second bedroom, the second bedroom was allowed to take charge of the house. Sister Feng was also ambitious, so how could she be willing to stick to Mrs. Wang's tail?
The elder said again: "No matter what, the meat is rotten in the pot, and the second house cannot be cheaper."

Mrs. Xing nodded gloomily. This inheritance is in the hands of the stepson, how can it be convenient if it is in my own hands? Sister Feng is a resourceful person, and it will be difficult to take advantage of the family property in the future. I was filled with regret, and suddenly I thought, if someone from my own small family doesn't know the patriarchal clan system, then Mrs. Wang... I'm afraid she might not know it either?
If you don't get any benefits, you will always make the second room look embarrassed! Mrs. Xing was greatly moved and asked, "Master, do you think my younger siblings are Lian'er's heirs?"

The elder Jia She frowned and said, "Are you aware of this?"

Mrs. Here’s Chengsi.”

The elder nodded first, then caught a glimpse of the proud look on Mrs. Xing's face, took a breath and said, "You mean -"

Mrs. Xing stood up and said, "Why don't I go over and take a look."

The second roommate had just made a fool of himself. Master Jia Zheng either hid in Mengpo Zhai or went to look for Aunt Zhao. If you don't have outsiders to remind you, you will really make a joke. The eldest master, Jia She, heard what Xian meant and said cheerfully: "That's right, after being beaten twice, the sisters-in-law always have to visit each other."

The two of them decided on a plan, and Mrs. Xing immediately ordered the maid and mother-in-law to accompany her, heading towards Mrs. Wang's courtyard at the back.

At this time, in Mrs. Wang's room, Mrs. Wang was lying on the kang. Tanchun and Baochai were just waiting to apply the stick sore ointment. Aunt Xue was sitting beside her and couldn't help complaining: "Brother-in-law is too cruel, but he is just a kid." What a nonsense, why are you so angry?"

The son was hiding from his mother, and when he saw Mrs. Wang put on her clothes, the maid had just led Baoyu in.

"Mother--"

Baoyu came up to express concern, and Aunt Xue conveniently held Baoyu in her arms, caressed his back and said, "Baoyu is so filial, how can he be any worse than others? In a family like ours, the children just need to study well, and there is no need to study hard in a cold window. Go and beg to change the court."

In Aunt Xue's heart, she wished that the precious jade would be as useless as possible, so that her reputation would be ruined. If she could not find a girl from another family, she would fall back and choose her own hairpin.

Sister Bao, who has ambitions to become a successful person, naturally had other ideas, so she said: "Although what mom said is good, brother Bao must also study hard. Otherwise, if my uncle doesn't like it, how can he know that he will not be in trouble today?"

Look at the spring nose, look at the mouth, look at the mouth and mind, without saying a word. As a concubine, no matter what she said at this time, it would be wrong, so she might as well keep silent.

Mrs. Wang thought of the eldest girl's advice, and because Jia Zheng was furious just now, she pulled Baoyu and said with tears in her eyes: "My son, no matter whether you are pretending or sincere, you must show off. You are older now. Come on, don't mess around with your sisters and maids anymore.

The old lady had just spoken and went to Jintai Academy to be more considerate of everything. People in the outside world are separated from each other, and a bad person will harm you. "

Baoyu kept sobbing and just shook his head, but he knew that it would be difficult to change, so he was speechless.

Sister Bao sighed secretly, feeling increasingly unhappy. She, Xue Baochai, could only choose such a person as her husband? Why? Moreover, there is a Daiyu who is higher than her in birth, talent and beauty competing for such a person. Why?
Family status, etiquette, family background, every treasure and hairpin are all known. It would be fine if no one compares them, but there is a self-made Li Weijian to compare them with. It was already too late to regret at this time, and Sister Bao was left with nothing but unwillingness in her heart.

At this time, the maid outside opened the curtains and shouted, "Second Grandma is here to see my wife."

After a while, Ping'er pushed Sister Feng to the Denuang Pavilion, where he greeted her with greetings. Aunt Xue could no longer criticize Jia Zheng, so she only sat with her briefly. Seeing that Mrs. Wang was fine, she got up and took Baochai away.

Wang Xifeng still wanted to arrange a banquet, so he only said a few words and said: "Madam, rest easy, I will take care of the outside affairs." After saying that, Ping'er pushed Wang Xifeng and left.

Mrs. Wang felt strange in her heart, what does it mean to have a good life and rest? Could it be that when the niece saw the heir in the big room, she started to cling to him? Referring to others, Mrs. Wang believed that Wang Xifeng had ulterior motives, so she frowned.

In the blink of an eye, she saw Tanchun, the concubine, cooking some medicine again. Mrs. Wang felt uncomfortable at the moment, and even looked at Tanchun a little displeased. Then he endured his anger and said, "You should go back and tidy up, there will be a banquet later."

Tanchun had a very eye-catching look, so he obeyed, put down the soup and retired. Tanchun frowned and sighed as soon as he got out of the house. He had been really dizzyingly lately. First, Ning Guo fell, and then they continued one after another.

In the future, Lian's second brother will inherit the throne, and the first and second houses will be able to fight in separate courts. It's still unclear what the outcome of the fight will be in this family. At this time, it is better to remain silent. Just as I was thinking about it, I saw my mother-in-law, Aunt Zhao, leading little Ji Xiang'er out of the side room and towards the main room.

Tanchun quickly stopped: "Where are you going, aunt?"

"You little heartless little thing, if my wife gets beaten, I will always come and take a look."

Tanchun was speechless for a while. Looking at his mother's beaming state, where was he going to visit a doctor? They were obviously there to have fun!

After all, she was her biological mother. Tanchun frowned and said, "My wife is very angry right now. My aunt, please don't bring trouble on yourself."

Aunt Zhao choked and asked angrily: "I made a mistake by going to visit you?" After a pause, she added: "Besides, there are many farmlands in the clan and Ningguo farm, and the heirs are in our family. Can't I just let the big house go and I can't have a good talk with my wife?"

Tan Chun was startled: "Auntie, please shut up, no one else can comment on this matter? The patriarchal system has its own rules. After the father dies, the son succeeds, the elder brother succeeds the younger brother, and if it is passed down but not passed down, no matter what, it will be the same. Second brother Chengsi, it’s not the second brother’s turn. If my aunt talks nonsense like this and doesn’t tell a joke, she will definitely make the master unhappy!”

"What about this?" Aunt Zhao was born in her natal family, so how did she know about the clan system? She didn't care what happened to Mrs. Wang or what happened to outsiders, but when it came to Master Jia Zheng, she had to care. She is what she is today, all because of Jia Zheng's favor.

If she loses favor, won't she be reduced to the miserable state of Aunt Zhou? Then he thought about how this daughter had never been close to him, so he looked at her suspiciously: "Are you bluffing me?"

Tanchun was so anxious that he stamped his feet: "How could I fool my aunt about such a big thing? The master was also angry just now. I'm afraid she's still in Mengpo Zhai now. If my aunt has such thoughts, she might as well take care of the master!" "

Aunt Zhao's eyes lit up and she said happily: "After all, it crawled out of my intestines. No matter how much you don't kiss, you still think about me once in a while. Little Jixiang'er, go to the kitchen and call for a cup of ginseng tea. I will personally deliver it to the master." ."

After finally coaxing Aunt Zhao away, Tanchun felt extremely tired. Her biological mother is a careless fool, and her aunt is a snake-hearted person. She is caught in the middle, and if she is not careful, she will become like her second sister Yingchun.

In the past few years, she has been obedient in front of her aunt, Mrs. Wang, and no one can fault her. On the one hand, she has improved her own situation, and on the other hand, she has helped a group of biological mothers and brothers. The birth mother is stupid and can't even see such a conspiracy. Tanchun was also afraid that his biological mother, Aunt Zhao, could not hide things, so she did not dare to tell her openly.

This time and again, a lot of troubles occurred.

Forget it, just take it one step at a time, she will get married sooner or later. Thinking of the wedding, she suddenly thought of Fourth Brother Jian, and the little girl Tanchun admired him deeply. Jian's fourth brother was unparalleled in his literary and military skills. However, her status is too high now, and she is no longer worthy of her. I just don’t know which girl is so lucky and will end up with Fourth Brother Jian.

Just as I was thinking about it, I came out of Mrs. Wang's courtyard, turned onto the road and bumped into Mrs. Xing head-on.

Mrs.

The teasing content was beyond words. Tanchun felt a sting in his heart but didn't realize it. He smiled and said, "Mom has just applied the ointment on the stick sore, and she is taking a rest right now. Auntie, please go quickly. If you don't tell me, mother will take a rest soon." ”

"Then go quickly."

Watching Tan Chun go with a smile, Mrs.

The maid entered the room and immediately led Mrs. Xing inside. Although Baoyu has a filial piety, he is at the age where he is greedy and stubborn. Seeing that Mrs. Wang has nothing to do, he can't sit still.

When Mrs. Wang saw her sister-in-law arriving, she sent Baoyu a message: "Go quickly, hide from the masters, and stop fooling around."

Baoyu only agreed, greeted Mrs. Xing again, and then hurried away with Xiren, Meiren and other maids.

Mrs.

"I just talked to the eldest master about the inheritance, and the eldest master has a lot of concerns."

"How to say?"

Mrs. With such a body and bones, I’m afraid he is weak-minded.”

Mrs. Wang was overjoyed, but also worried, fearing that Mrs. Xing was trying to trick her. Because he said casually: "No matter how you say it, I should be the heir to the great master. Moreover, you also know that the master usually doesn't care about anything, so he is the heir. I'm afraid everything has to be handled by the great master and Brother Lian." .”

Mrs. Just send the elder and Lian'er to deal with it."

Mrs. Wang secretly thought that she was afraid that she would not be able to pass the old lady's test, which made sense. This sister-in-law still thinks that the master will not care about anything in the future and let the big house handle the affairs of the family. She is really thinking blindly! Now that the title is still in the big house, the issue of inheritance must not fall on the big house, otherwise wouldn't the family lose control?
No matter what, the heir must first fall on the head of the second house, so that he can then plan for the title. Since my sister-in-law Mrs. Xing said this, why not just follow the plan?

Mrs. Wang made up her mind, frowned and said, "I'm afraid this will be difficult. You also know that I have never wanted to meddle in such nosy matters."

Mrs.

Mrs. Wang hesitated for a long time, and then she nodded and said: "That's all right, the eldest master really needs to be raised well... Then what advice can I give you?"

"Hey, it's settled then."

At the moment, the two sisters-in-law were both smiling and had their own plans in mind.

............................................................

In the blink of an eye, the time passed, and the maid Gui Gui came to the garden and informed Li Weijian that the banquet was ready. Li Weijian, Daiyu, Xichun, and Yingchun went out of the Grand View Garden and arrived at Rongqing Hall together.

This day was just a family banquet, and Daiyu gave birth to a baby. There were two more dishes of Daiyu's favorite food on the table, and two more dishes of Li Weijian's favorite food.

Mrs. Wang was injured just now, so she stayed at home to recuperate.

The eldest master Jia She and the master Jia Zheng did not come because of their status, but Mrs. Xing came. It was Jia Lian who accompanied Li Weijian to sit across the screen, and two more tables were opened on the other side. Jia's mother left Daiyu alone beside her. Knowing that her granddaughter had been wronged today, she exchanged greetings with her.

Because Daiyu was still in mourning, the brothers and sisters only congratulated her and didn't call the troupe to join in the fun. In addition, today's affairs are complicated, and everyone is not in much mood at the moment, so the banquet is a bit dull. Even if Wang Xifeng came back to make jokes again, he never became enthusiastic.

Li Weijian looked at the past from time to time, but the shadows were so blurry across the screen that he couldn't really see clearly. Finally, the banquet was over, and after the screen was removed, I congratulated Daiyu, said a few words to Jia Mu, and then left sadly.

After getting out of Rongguo Mansion and sitting on the carriage, Xiangling came over to knead her again. Li Weijian smiled and declined: "No, I haven't had a few drinks today."

Xiang Ling said: "Miss Lin is very happy after receiving the poems. She also asked me to tell the fourth master, saying, 'If you have the intention, a sentence is affection; if you don't have the intention, what's the use of a full box of treasures? 'Woolen cloth."

Li Weijian couldn't help but smile, Daiyu really had such a temper. We still have each other in our hearts, and we can live comfortably in the mountains and live in plain food. It can be said that we are full of love.

Suddenly, his mind moved. He looked at Xiang Ling's bright smile and asked, "Xiang Ling seems to be very proud of Miss Lin?"

Xiang Ling smiled and said, "Miss Lin is frank and doesn't hide anything from me. She is indeed very good."

"What about comparing with Miss Bao?"

Xiangling suddenly felt embarrassed, frowned and thought: "If it weren't for Miss Bao's protection, how could I have the chance to be with Fourth Master? It's just... Miss Bao has too many thoughts on her mind. Sometimes even though she smiles, she might not How painful it is in my heart.”

Li Weijian reached out and poked the rouge between his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Who said Xiangling is stupid? She is obviously very clever."

Xiang Ling said angrily: "I just get obsessed with reading sometimes, and I become stupid when I pass it around."

Li Weijian smiled and hugged his figure, Xiang Ling obediently put her head on his shoulder, and whispered: "I never expected that I would move out, and now I have to move back... That's right, Fourth Master, there is no need to go to Xun Ge for this matter." Why don't we discuss it? The saint has some ulterior motives for this reward."

Li Weijian said: "You have already seen it, so how could I not know? It's just that this matter is not urgent."

There are some things that are difficult to say. He must rely on the imperial power to gain momentum. When he becomes powerful, he is afraid that he will become the enemy of the imperial power. Fortunately, I have an indecisive temperament. If it were another hero, he would never be able to do such a risky thing.

Now that it's so good, what if the saint guesses that this is his plan? At this time, the saint began to punish Li Weijian. As long as Li Weijian did not commit heinous crimes, all the princes in the dynasty would have to protect him.

At this time, the industrial revolution had just begun, and the more interest groups Li Weijian tied up with him, the more interest groups he tied up. When the new and old revolutions and chaos arose in the future, he could step aside and control the court from a distance.

When this happens, we must work hard and promote the power revolution industry by industry. The woolen spinning machines have been roughly sorted out for a while now, and after a while it will be time to create a bank that collects seigniorage.

The car was rolling, and there was a lingering feeling inside, and we arrived at the door in a blink of an eye.

Li Weijian and Xiang Ling entered Deyimen, and not far away they bumped into Fu Qiufang, Hongyu, Qingwen and others.

When the girls came forward to pay their respects, Fu Qiufang asked with concern: "Have you got your will?"

"Okay." Li Weijian pointed to Xiangling. Fu Qiufang saw him holding the imperial edict and hurriedly urged Li Weijian to send it to the family temple. Only then did he say, "Eunuch Dai came to the house and waited for half an hour. He heard that the master has gone. Rongguo Mansion, then gave chase. What is this decree... exactly?"

Entering the main room at this time, Qingwen was waiting on Li Weijian to clean his hands. Li Weijian said: "It's a mixed blessing... Wasn't the Ningguo Mansion taken back by the saint? He turned around and gave me the mansion because of my merits in building a new gun. Got me."

"ah!"

"what?"

Qingwen exclaimed, feeling secretly happy. He smiled and said: "Fourth Master, so we are moving back again?"

"right."

Qingwen was the least thoughtful and said happily: "I had never been to Huifang Garden before, but now it's better. I can wander around at will in the future."

Xiu Ying chased Qingwen and asked, "Is Huifang Garden fun?"

The two of them were chatting without mentioning anything. Fu Qiufang and Hong Yu looked at each other, but with worried expressions on their faces. Hong Yu said, "Fourth Master, this seems inappropriate... Is there no production trouble in Rongguo Mansion today?"

"It has nothing to do with me." Li Weijian wiped his hands and sat down slowly. Bi Tong hurriedly brought tea. Li Weijian took a sip and said, "The old lady has a bright eye and a bright heart. She only treats the saint as a means of alienation."

Hongyu breathed a sigh of relief. She was born into a family in the Rongguo Mansion. She knew the Jia family's wealth and was most afraid of being hostile to Li Weijian. Fu Qiufang, however, had some knowledge and said: "With what I am capable of today, how can I dare to offend others? If the Rongguo Mansion is really confused, just let the two of us stop interacting. It just so happens that the eldest sister is working as a teacher in the palace, and I want to see the president. I can see it.”

After a pause, he frowned and said, "I'm afraid that the saint has other thoughts and will delay my future."

Li Weijian smiled and said: "How old am I? How old is the saint? No matter what he can do, the saint can't appoint me to the cabinet, right?"

Fu Qiufang nodded and said with a smile: "What I said is that I am afraid that I will not be able to use you effectively, but I can hope that in the future... I heard that Dong Palace is only one year younger than me?"

Li Weijian said solemnly: "The old events of thirteen years ago are still vivid in my mind. If I'm not careful, I will be doomed."

Fu Qiufang was startled and said quickly, "I talk too much."

Li Weijian heard the words again and consoled him: "Qiu Fang is wrong. The imperial court uses me because of my ability to make money. It's not about who the master is attached to."

Fu Qiufang suddenly realized: "I am mistaken."

Li Weijian smiled and nodded repeatedly. Although Fu Qiufang comes from a small family, she is smart and steady, and if she is trained well, she will become a good housekeeper.

At this time, Qingwen dragged Xiuying over and said, "Fourth Master, the ancestral hall is still in Ningguo Mansion. You can't come to our house to worship ancestors from the Jia family, right?"

Li Weijian deliberately said with a grimace: "Yes, I almost forgot about this matter. If the master asks for permission, I can't refuse."

"Ah?" Qingwen was annoyed: "A person named Jia goes to another person's house to worship his ancestors? How can there be such a truth in the world?"

Fu Qiufang couldn't help but said: "I am teasing you, but you take it seriously."

Qingwen immediately pouted and said, "Fourth Master is teasing me again!"

Li Weijian laughed loudly and suppressed the words of tiger and wolf. Immediately, a group of concubines happily discussed how to rebuild the ancestral hall.

It is not appropriate to say that this is bulldozed and Huifang Garden will be expanded; that it is not appropriate to say that the house has three entrances and four directions. Where is the fall? It's really not beautiful.

After some quarrel, Li Weijian made the decision to bulldoze the house and rebuild it into a three-in house. The scenery in the garden was also old, so he took this opportunity to renovate it.

It just so happens that Ningrong Street has been paved with running water for a long time, so when it is renovated, heating and running water will also be paved.

At the end, Li Weijian said: "It's just a side one. I saw that the Xiang Tower was really unsatisfactory that day and was bulldozed. Let's ask the gardeners to redesign a four-story building."

Fu Qiufang felt confused. When she turned around, she saw that Hongyu was about to speak but hesitated, thinking that she knew the inside story. Because she didn't ask for the reason, she just waited until she turned around and looked for the ruby ​​sweeper to hear clearly.

Li Weijian was thinking about it, not wanting to go around in circles, and now he had to live next to Rongguo Mansion. At that time, Huifang Garden and Grand View Garden were only separated by a corner gate. I wonder how many more times I would see Sister Lin in the future.
