Jia Zhen corrected: "The Honglou Chamber of Commerce belongs to the imperial court and the emperor. I'm just escrow! Keep a low profile!"

  The lovely smile is like a flower, "I know, but we are the major shareholders!"

  Jia Zhen has a grand goal to integrate the Red House Silver Number into the Dashun Central Bank!To be precise, it is the Dashun version of the Federal Reserve!A financial empire controlled by Jia Zhen behind the scenes.

  Of course, this is still a plan on paper, and there is still a long way to go.

  At this time, Ke Ren quietly came over and asked: "Master, Yindie said that you transported all the glycerin stored to the workshop, and ordered them to buy saltpeter and green alum. What are you going to do?"

  Seeing the green light flashing in her eyes, Jia Zhen whispered, "I won't tell you!"

  Ke Ren gave Jia Zhen a charming look, "Don't talk about it, Yindie must know it anyway."

  Yindie smiled and said, "I know, but I can't tell my sister!"

  Keren held Yindie's arm, "I don't need to know what it is, you just tell me, is this thing very dangerous?"

  Yindie shook his head, "Ask the master!"

  Ke Ren watched Jia Zhen seriously for a while before giving up.

  Jia Zhen finished breakfast and sent off Keren and the others, and You Shi came in again with a smile.

Chapter [-] Please keep the old man secret

    You said with a smile: "The old man from the clan is here! Have you seen him or not?" The old man was Jia Dairu.

  Jia Zhen is displeased: "What else is there to do with him? It's just to adopt a grandson."

  You Shi took Jia Zhen out: "Why don't you go for a while? He came here today with a cane and said that he won't go back if there is no result!"

  Jia Zhen said, "It's still a lie, right?"

  When he arrived at Ning'an Hall, Jia Dairu was leaning on an old wooden stick as a crutch. His beard and hair were all white, and the wrinkles on his face were deeper. Especially, his body was so weak that he couldn't straighten his waist while sitting there, and he coughed from time to time.

  Jia Zhen's heart tightened, this old man couldn't hold on anymore, right?

  "Grandpa, you always send someone to tell me, I will come to the door to listen to your lessons in person, how can I work for you? Isn't this my birthday?" He took the tea from the servant girl and poured it on Jia Dairu.

  Jia Dairu stroked his beard, sighed, and said with difficulty: "Originally I didn't want to trouble you, we can count as a day, but since the new year, my body is not good every day, my legs are shaking, and my waist is hunched. , I can't bite anything. I'm afraid my ancestors are going to tell me to go. At my age, it doesn't matter if I die now, I have enough to live. Only one thing, you know, I have no one in my successor to be desolate. Go to see the ancestors with your face." After speaking, he stood up tremblingly and walked to Jia Zhen, and he was about to give a big salute.

  Jia Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Old man, this must not be the case. Since you told me about this last year, I have been inquiring about it. It's just that our family has a large population and a few brothers. If you adopt others, you will quit. Therefore, you can only search carefully outside the clan. It takes a lot of work to have a clean family, be smart, and be trouble-free."

  Jia Dairu said anxiously: "Is there any news? If it's later, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait."

  Jia Zhen smiled and said, "Don't worry, old man, I have found a family..."

  When Jia Dairu heard this, he stood up immediately, "Where are you now?"

  Jia Zhen smiled and said, "After all, we have to arrange it properly before we can see you, right? What's more, it's a major matter of adopting the family tree of the ancestral hall?"

  Jia Dairu leaned on crutches and tapped the floor a few times in a hurry, "Isn't this what your father-in-law said? Don't wait, just take me there? As long as this major event is completed, I will die tonight. Now, I can rest my eyes."

  This was a big win for Jia Zhen. I didn't expect that the old man couldn't wait for a moment.

  "There is no need for the old man to go, I will bring them over to meet you."

  Jia Dairu waved his hand and pondered: "Don't be here, take me directly to my house, and kowtow in front of the ancestral tablet and me, and that's it, everything else is simple, and everything is simple."

  Jia Zhen smiled and said, "This also makes it possible. There are only two things that must be discussed with the old man first." He helped him sit down.

  Jia Dairu is in a good mood at the moment, he has been in a good mood for many years, and his whole person is full of energy, as if he is much younger all of a sudden. "Which two things? I agree with them both."

  Jia Zhen said cautiously: "For one thing, this child is still young, I'm afraid it's not suitable for you to be your grandson, why not adopt it as your great-grandson?"

  Jia Dairu didn't even think about it, "That's how it should be! What else?"

  Jia Zhen said: "Secondly, this family was originally a wealthy family, but it was punished by the court, the family was ruined, the principal was dismissed and exiled, and the family property was confiscated. Besides this boy, there are three little girls. Their family hopes to be together. Bring them back so that they won't be separated from their brother and sister. Grandpa, can you do that?"

  Jia Dairu's face showed embarrassment for a while, and after a while, he said: "Pity the hearts of parents in the world, they have this idea, and they are forgiven, but don't hide it from Brother Zhen, you are also aware of my family's situation. , how can I afford it? I can't, I can't!"

  Jia Zhen smiled and said: "I also expected this. The old man should blame me for talking nonsense. You are now at this age, and this child is only a few years old. I'm afraid you..." He didn't say it clearly, but the meaning was very clear. I'm afraid he can't wait for this child to grow up.

  Jia Dairu let out a long sigh, the look just now gradually disappeared, and he became stooped and depressed again. "Then what to do? What to do then?"

  Jia Zhen also sighed deliberately, "It's really a dilemma, if only someone could help."

  Speaking of this, Jia Dairu's eyes lit up and he said with a smile, "That's exactly what you said!" He stood up and grabbed Jia Zhen's hand, "You are both the prince and the patriarch, and you have to do this."

  He said more and more urgently, "Looking at my age, I have contributed to the clan. Even if there is no credit, there is some hard work, please agree to my request!"

  The corners of Jia Zhen's mouth were upturned, and her face panicked: "The old man must not say that, you have done your best for the clan, and it has been seen by everyone for decades. What requirements do you have, as long as Jia Zhen can do it. , Jia Zhen must do it!"

  Jia Dairu smiled and said, "Brother Zhen, you can definitely do it. When those children kowtow to me, how about they kowtow to you together and recognize you as a foster father? In this way, even if I die, I will There is no need to worry about their livelihood. Besides, this is what you, the patriarch, should do."

  Jia Zhen showed surprise, then pointed at Jia Dairu and said with a smile: "Old man, your abacus is too good. You co-authored the child's adoption in your name, but you want me to raise it for you?"

  Jia Dairu sighed: "This is something that can't be done. You should be kind. It not only saved a few children of this man from suffering, but also saved me from worrying about the future. In the future, I will let them set up a longevity tablet for you. Day worship."

  Jia Zhen smiled and was waiting for this sentence!He nodded and said, "Since it's settled, I asked them to take someone to your house?"

  Jia Dairu hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, okay, hurry up?"

  Jia Zhen winked at Wang Jian, "Go and take some children to the old man's house. Take good care of them, don't scare them." Wang Jian exited knowingly.

  Jia Dairu was about to go home immediately, and Jia Zhen kept him, "Don't be in such a hurry, there is one more thing to talk about."

  "What's the matter?" Jia Dairu was anxious, "Brother Zhen, I can't stand you for such a long time. If you have something to say, you can say it together, okay?"

  Jia Zhen touched her nose embarrassedly, "Actually, I want to say that they originally had names, but this one has been adopted. The original names cannot be counted, so they must be changed. The old man can think about what to give them. name?"

  Jia Dairu sat down again, "What are they called now?"

  Jia Zhen thought about it deliberately, "The boy's nickname is Ku'er, and the girls are called Wei'er, Mo'er, and Rui'er."

  Jia Dairu read it again and said, "Rui'er's next generation is from the cursive script, eh? These children just follow the number of generations!" , I can't think of anything that suits him at this moment, so I went around in circles on Ning'an Hall.

  At this time, Jia Zhen was also worried.Although I talked to Wang Yu, Li Wan and Suyun a little earlier, but now I suddenly want to take the child away, I don't know if Suyun will give up.He tried his best to hold off Jia Dairu, and then let them explain it well, and they must not make jokes.

  Jia Dairu couldn't come up with a better name for a while, even tore off several of his white beards, and scratched a lot with his fingers in his palm, he was undecided, "If there are a few more, then I will Being able to use all these words, but now there is only one, it is really difficult to make a decision. Forget it, no need to think about it, just call them their original names, only change their surnames, and call them Jia Kuo, Jia Wei, Jia Mo Come with Jia Rui!"

  Jia Zhen clapped her hands and said with a smile: "So, very good, very good!" Of course, it was very good, neither changed his name nor changed his surname, it was best.

  Let's say that Wang Jian left Ning Mansion and came to Wicker Lane on a horse.

  He entered the house and hurriedly shouted, "Auntie, Auntie?"

  Su Yun came out to greet him, but when he saw Jia Zhen coming, he smiled and said, "What's the matter today?"

  Wang Jian told Su Yun everything about Ning'an Hall.

  When Su Yun heard this, her face suddenly turned pale, and she sat on the chair and cried.

  At this time, Wang Yu came out with Ruier in his arms and listened carefully.There were tears in the corners of her eyes, but she smiled, "This is a good thing. In this way, the brothers and sisters can go back to Ning Mansion in an upright manner, and they can be dignified and surnamed Jia."

  It just hurts so much in my heart.She hugged her little daughter, looked at her round face, listened to her milky voice, how could she let it go?She still doesn't know how to call people, she hasn't called her mother yet, and even if they meet in the future, it's impossible to call her mother, and Wei Er!

  So Wang Jian invited out several children who were only three or four years old.

  Su Yun hugged Mo'er tightly, her clothes wet with tears.

  Mo'er wondered, "Mother, why are you crying? Uncle Wang said he wanted to take us to find our father. Is it true? Can we go out?"

  Su Yun just shed tears, "Mo'er, I can't call my mother in the future..."

  Mo'er was still young, "Then what should I be called? Mother, don't you want Mo'er anymore?"

  Su Yun was choked up and speechless.

  On the other side, Wang Yu was holding one.Weier looked at her curiously, then looked at Mo'er next to her, and asked, "Mother, is Daddy going to take us back to his house?"

  Wang Yuqiang smiled and said, "Yes, Daddy wants you to recognize your ancestors and return to your clan."

  Although Wei Er is young, she is the smartest among the children. She questioned: "Then you still have Jia Kuo's mother, why don't you come back with us?"

  Wang Yu pinched Weier's face, "In the future, when you and your sister see your mother outside, you can't call your mother anymore. You have to pretend that you don't know each other. Do you hear me?"

  Wei Er's eyes immediately filled with tears, "Mother doesn't want Wei Er and my sister anymore?"

  The only little man here, Jia Shuo, looked around and didn't see his mother. He shyly tugged at Wang Jian's sleeve, "Have you seen my mother?"

  Su Yun wiped away her tears immediately, and hugged Jia Kuo in her arms, and warned, "Brother Ku, remember what my aunt said, you are the only brother among you, you have to protect the sisters, you know? "

  Jia Kuo nodded, "Then I have to pretend that I don't know my mother and you?"

  Su Yun said with a smile: "Brother Wu is good! You must remember, you can't call like that again in the future."

  Wei Er wiped Wang Yu's tears and asked, "Then why?"

  Wang Yu tried to prevaricate several times, but couldn't say it every time.

  Wei Er shook Wang Yu's arm and asked again and again, "Why? Mother? Did Dad not let him go? He is a bad dad!"

  Wang Yu put her arms around her and smiled: "Weier is old and sensible! You can't let others know about the relationship between your mother and your father. So you must not tell your mother, or your mother will... later, see you later. When it's time for your mother, don't call it wrong! Do you understand?"

  A few children nodded in understanding, but they still didn't know what it meant. Adults are very strange. Usually neither father nor mother's home is here, why are we the only ones here?

  It must be a good thing that Daddy wants to take them back to his house, right?

  They got into the carriage, and after a while they forgot their grief, pestering Wang Jian to say this and that.

  Only Wang Yu and Suyun leaned on the side of the second gate, looking at the child who was far away, and finally couldn't help crying.

  Their hearts were broken.

  When a few children arrived at Jia Dairu's courtyard, Wang Jian whispered in their ears, not to speak when they saw their father later.

  So, they were brought in.

  Jia Zhen and Jia Dairu were standing on the steps, but Dairu's old wife couldn't wait. As soon as she saw a few pink makeup and jade babies coming in, she was very happy, and hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her in her arms, heartbroken. cry.

  Jia Dairu looked at Jia Huan with a calm face, "A gentleman is as gentle as jade, but that's all!" He held Jia Huan's hand and smiled softly, "Children, come with your great grandfather!"

  Jia Kuo glanced at Jia Dairu, then looked at Jia Zhen in surprise.

  Jia Zhen's heart was also beating wildly at this time, and she didn't know if Sister Yu and Suyun had explained it clearly.He was afraid that they couldn't help but call him "Daddy!" at this time, that would be bad.

  He lowered his head not to look at them.

  Fortunately, Jia Kuo was very obedient and didn't ask more questions.As expected of Li Wan's son.

  Jia Dairu took Jia Kuo, Dairu's wife held one, and brought two little girls into the main hall.

  Jia Dairu and his wife were sitting in the hall, and some servants had put a futon in the hall.Dai Ru smiled and said, "Good boy, kowtow to the great grandfather!"

  Jia Kuo looked at Jia Zhen again.
