Chapter 48

86_86438: The Rongguo Mansion finally returned the treasury owed 800,000 taels of silver. After Jia She returned to the mansion, she realized that Jia Zheng was doing it on his back and stood on his neck and made a fuss for half a day. At midnight, Jia Zheng knew that it was wrong to read the book first, and he never really took advantage of it, so he felt a little embarrassed. Jia Mu had to come out to comfort her, said a lot of good things, and asked Jia Zheng to compensate her. Jia Zheng thought, but she could bear it for a while. When her daughter was named the Imperial Concubine, the whole mansion would not rely on her? So she really bowed to him. Jia She sneered: "The second brother is really a scholar." So she left.

When I returned to the house, I saw my two sons waiting for each other and hummed, "What are you waiting for?"

Jia Cong said quickly, "Wait and hear that the master has learned to be good at playing the role of the second uncle."

Jia She couldn't help laughing, and asked Jia Lian about what happened today. Jia Lian was very proud and started with Lao Fu and bowing to him. When he said "slid out of the south corner gate", the three of them laughed in unison.

Jia Sheyin said: "It's almost the Chinese New Year. I'll use this name to release or sell those servants who are most greedy, so as not to waste money."

Jia Lian hesitated: "There are all people in our family who are well-known and there are many old ladies."

Jia She looked solemn and said, "I have my own plans to deal with the second wife first, and the old lady's people will be the one who will be the next one."

Jia Lian said: "The second wife's people may have to testify for the second wife in some days."

Jia She frowned and said, "What kind of certificate is it? Isn't the account book the certificate? Now she is determined to think that her daughter wants to be the queen. Could she still dare to tear it apart and ruin her reputation?"

Jia Lian said: "It's just to be careful just in case. It's okay to be late for him. Besides, the New Year is over now."

Jia She then gave up and just told him not to forget.

Jia Lian smiled and said, "It's better if you forget about me, who would forget about this?"

Jia Cong hurriedly asked, "Do you have to send out those greedy slaves? I heard Mr. Gong say that only two or three are clean, so why don't there be many people in our mansion? The old lady likes to show off her pomp."

Jia She sneered: "How many of our masters are there? What do you want to do with such a serving? I have no one to serve me in the house in the south of the city. Besides, there are many people in the village, so if there is not enough, I will buy it."

Jia Cong was waiting for this, and said, "Would you like to choose or buy it first, and learn the rules first on the side of the mansion in the south of the city?" He squeezed and said, "Since the master bought it, the rules are naturally decided by the master."

Jia She was stunned.

Jia Cong continued: "The remaining two or three may not be unwilling to greed for ink and steal, I'm afraid I can't do it."

Jia She couldn't help but slam high fives. Yes, there are not many people in the mansion that he can trust. Now those who please and laugh are just looking at him being in power for a while. If there is a turmoil one day, he will immediately turn against him. He nodded repeatedly: "You are very saying, all the servants in the mansion should change."

This matter was decided. The next day, Jia She went to the escort agency to consult Gong Sanyi, and Gong Sanyi also praised him for "what he said".

Jia Shechou said: "It's just that no one is going to do this."

Gong Sanyi thought for a while and said, "You don't have to worry about your kindness. There is a very appropriate candidate. It's just that I'm not convenient to talk about it now, so I'll wait until the New Year is over."

Jia Sheqi was surprised: "We have all the people here who plunder the bodyguards and occupy the mountain and become kings. Where can we choose to teach the servants of the wealthy families?"

Gong Sanyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, you will know it when the time comes."

Jia She asked him for a long time and just kept him in hiding.

It was the New Year in a blink of an eye. Although Rongguo Mansion was not as lively as before, he invited some wine and made a fuss for a few days to make an appearance with Jia Mu. Because Jia Lian was proclaiming that it was Jia Zheng's intention to return the treasury silver, he actually submitted the memorials. Even when Jia She was not away, he made his own decisions when he was leaving the house. The four kings and eighth dukes and other old relatives who were both wealthy treasury owed the silver. They all looked at each other in a sneering manner. They were either sarcastic or rebuked each other. Jia Zheng was extremely depressed for a while, and he hoped that his daughter would become a noble person as soon as possible.

Jixiang Sanbao went to pay New Year's greetings to Lin Hai again and received three big red envelopes. Jia Cong thought that Lin Hai was about to donate the original work at Yangzhou City, but now he is in full swing and is secretly proud.

When Daiyu came to Jia's house to pay New Year's greetings with her father, Xichun grabbed Daiyu to her and Yingchun before Baoyu. Baoyu had no choice but to look at her. Daiyu and her sisters had not seen each other for a long time, and she had a lot to say, so she couldn't care about him. After a while, Jia Zheng asked someone to call him out again. Baoyu had never approached Daiyu for a day, and he was so angry that he stomped his feet.

After the Lantern Festival, Gong Sanyi told Jia She that the one who taught her for their mansion would come tomorrow, but should we meet? How could Jia She not see her? The next day, he went to the mansion in the south of the city early to wait, and Jia Cong followed her with all his might.

After sitting for a while, a child ran in outside and shouted, "A fairy-like sister came down from the carriage!" The two of them became more and more curious. Jia She had to bear it. Jia Cong couldn't sit still and ran out.

As soon as I reached the door, I saw a woman wearing a blue cloak and a headscarf wrapped around her head walking over. Seeing that her face was exactly Qin Keqing! I couldn't help but blurt out: "Brother Rong's wife!"

Jia She was also shocked when she heard this and hurriedly asked Gong Sanyi what was going on.

Gong Sanyi smiled and said, "I heard that she was in charge of your Eastern Palace that day, and I hope she can defeat this task."

Jia She asked: "Didn't she become a monk?"

"Can't you return to secular life?"

It turned out that Gong Sanyi had thought about it for a long time, and only Qin Keqing did it, so he asked someone to go to the temple where she had left her hair to investigate. He learned that except for Qin Zhong, Jia Rong would occasionally bother her; Qin Keqing would always see Qin Zhong, but never see Jia Rong, and this woman had no Buddhist heart at all. So he turned into the temple and found her in the courtyard after Qin Keqing wiped the snow every day, saying bluntly, "That day, I pretended to be a Taoist priest and coaxed Mr. Zhen of Ningguo Mansion."

After Qin Keqing was a little surprised, he actually folded his hands to thank him.

Gong Sanyi nodded, then said to Jia Cong that day, "If you don't leave that door, you can't escape from his palm. Your mansion can never hide secrets. Even if you want to endure the shame and force yourself to live, your mother-in-law may not agree."

Qin Keqing sighed, "It was the child who came to save him." Because he said, "My mother-in-law has long been so gloomy because of me."

Gong Sanyi then asked her if she could teach some servants for Rongguo Mansion. Qin Keqing smiled bitterly and said, "How can Poison Ni enter the secular world?"

Gong Sanyi smiled slightly and said, "This is easy. Tomorrow you will only tell your temple master that Jia Rong often disturbs you in your cultivation, so it is difficult to break your mind. It is better to go to another place to practice."

Qin Keqing hesitated for a while: "Master treats Poison Ni very well and cannot bear to bully her."

Gong Sanyi asked back: "Why have you bullied her? Jia Rong disturbed you from practicing purely, and it is true that your mind is difficult to break. I think you really have no Buddhist connection, so why should you force yourself here? Moreover, when practicing Buddhism, chanting scriptures and eating vegetarian food is the skin and fur, and doing good and accumulating virtue is the muscles and bones. If you have good fortune in the future, wouldn't it be better to help the poor and help the poor than hiding in this temple without any intention to recite scriptures?"

Qin Keqing was originally a young woman and had enjoyed honor in Ningguo Mansion for several years. She was forced to become a monk. How could she really want to? Hearing this, he was so moved and asked, "So what if he just went to the temple next to him?"

Gong Sanyi smiled and said, "I will know tomorrow." He left because of the wall.

The next day, Qin Keqing really asked the palace master to go elsewhere to practice to avoid Jia Rong. The palace master thought, "I see that you have not been calm all day long after you came. If Ningguo Mansion was not in it, you would have been able to return to secular life. This would be a way." He could not think of where to send her.

Just now, a sister-in-law came to report to him: "The Master Jingyuan of Zhenwu'an is here." He couldn't help but say joyfully, "There is a place to go." He said to Qin Keqing, "Zhenwu'an is in a secluded place in the south of the city, with few cars and horses. Although it is a bit more difficult, their own industries are in the temple, and they can still live a life."

Qin Keqing hurriedly put together and thanked him.

When Master Jingyuan came, the three of them decided on this matter. The next day, Qin Keqing took advantage of the heavy snow and left the temple where he had lost his hair and arrived at Zhenwu Temple. Master Jingyuan rushed to return home on the 29th day of the year, and the Qin family lived a reunion year.

After hearing this, Jia She and his wife were stunned. Jia Cong murmured: "Yes, this is OK..." Haven't Li Zhi and Li Longji used both?

Gong Sanyi looked at him with a smile and said to Jia She: "It is better for the boss to temporarily hire Qin as a teacher and teach his subordinates for your mansion. What do you think?"

Jia She nodded repeatedly: "Excellent, very appropriate. But Brother Zhen would look for her?"

Gong Sanyi waved his hand and said, "He thought that Niangzi Qin was his white tiger, so he couldn't hide. As for Jia Rong, he just found Zhen Wu'an and said he would not see the guests." At this moment, Jia She and Jia Cong guessed that Zhen Wu'an was Prince Xianyizhong's territory, and they were buried in their stomachs without saying a word.

Qin Keqing then thanked Jia Cong for saving her. Jia Cong hurriedly said, "It was Mr. Gong who did it, so I just talked."

Qin Keqing sighed: "You are so rare that you have the desire to save the world at such a young age."

Jia Cong had to lower his head and curl his lips - he really just said casually.

With Qin Keqing, everything was easy to handle. Jia She urged the accounting room to check the accounts carefully. The 1000-meter mansion was sent to the mansion in the south of the city to choose from the people's village, and sometimes they went to the market to pick some good ones. Everyone called Qin "Miss Qin" and said that it was just a hired teaching. To avoid gossip, she wore a wig for the time being.

After a few days, the accounts were found, and Mrs. Wang had corruption in the public account of Mo.

Jia She sent someone to go to Jia Zheng's study to ask for the account. Jia Zheng was chatting with all the Qingkes, and was embarrassed. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Qingkes hurriedly slipped out. Jia She was sitting on his chair and spread the account book to him at a table: "Repay the money."

Jia Zheng said angrily: "Don't bully people too much! The treasury money was paid back by our house a few years ago."

Jia She nodded: "Delete 800,000 taels, and there are still 400,3830 taels."

Jia Zheng said: "There are not so many!"

Jia She said: "The account book is here, please read it yourself."

How could Jia Zheng understand the account book? He had to send it to Mrs. Wang for reading it.

Mrs. Wang refused to agree at first glance. It turned out that they estimated all the items that Mrs. Wang was greedy based on the most expensive on the market. Many of them were given gifts and they were not discounted as silver. She secretly sold the property of the public servant to her own name at a low price. She calculated the highest valuation, but also calculated the output that was originally expected to be based on the maximum estimation. Li Fan even wanted to count the interest over the years, but Jia Lian said, "Forget it, we still seem stingy if we don't have much money."

Mrs. Wang asked someone to come outside to judge Jia She. Jia Sheqi said, "Lian'er specially waived your interest, but you are not satisfied? Do you know that those things can't be discounted with money? Since you are unwilling to pay the money, then return the items."

At this moment, Jia Mu had already arrived and was persuading Jia She for the sake of the family, the second house had another 800,000 taels and stopped. Jia She is not short of the 400,000 taels of silver now. However, the more Jia Mu was leaning against the second house, the more he refused, and sneered, "Since the second wife thinks that our valuation is not suitable, we either return the restoration or go to a lawsuit."

Jia Mu was furious: "You dare!"

Jia Sheqi was surprised: "The person stole my things, but now the thief has caught the evidence and found out. Why don't I dare to sue?"

Jia Mu picked up the crutch and beat him on the head.

Jia She has been in the past few years, and she has been well recuperated. She often practices boxing and feet with Jia Si and Wu Baozi. Where can she beat her? She jumped away. The crutch hit the chair hard, and the sound was like gold and jade. Jia She couldn't help but feel cold and gritted her teeth and said, "Is the old lady ready to beat me to death?"

Jia Mu pointed at him and said, "You disobedient beast! Why did I give birth to you? You ignored the thief at home and were determined to deal with your biological brother!"

Jia She never refuted, stood there and looked at her coldly, without saying a word. After a long time, Jia Mu couldn't help but feel a little timid and forced her to stick out: "Do you still want to kill your biological mother?"

Jia She sneered: "No need." He turned his head and ordered, "Let the account settle the accounts again, and count them according to the profits of Sitong Money House." He looked at Jia Zheng again, "Now we have no bargaining, and this lawsuit is not worth a cent of silver when it reaches the Golden Palace." He shook his sleeves and was about to leave.

Jia Mu was anxious: "You want to force my old woman to death!"

Jia She paused and said in a deep voice: "Whether the old lady wants to cry, make a fuss, hang herself, or sue me for disobedience, this greedy lawsuit must be fought. Let's meet in court." She never turned around and left immediately.

As soon as he left, Jia Mu realized that he had just inappropriate, and forced him into a hurry, and sighed with regret. Jia Zheng hurriedly asked her what to do. Jia Mu thought for a while: "You can't bring out the money, can he drive you out of the mansion?"

Jia Zheng understood that this was going to be delayed and nodded repeatedly.

On the other side, Jia She rushed back to the house angrily and cursed loudly: "Old grandma is not surprising, I really want me to endure it."

Jia Lian and Jia Cong hurriedly came up to coax him, one of whom beats his shoulders and the other hugged his arms, and they all said, "Master, don't you guessed it long ago?"

Jia She gritted her teeth: "How clean she would strangle her to death when she gave birth to me that day!"

Jia Cong hurriedly said, "It's not possible! Are you both brothers and sisters and me gone? There are more than three good people in the world, and God cannot agree."

Jia She couldn't help laughing and said pretending to say: "Forget it, I'd better be alive for you guys."

Jia Lian hurriedly asked, "What happened in the end?"

Jia She snorted: "I'll let the account recalculate the interest."

Jia Lian said: "I'm afraid they will die and refuse to return."

Jia Cong smiled and said, "This is easy to deal with. Second uncle is the most shameless. Face is more important than money. It is very easy to deal with shameless people." Because of his low murmur, Jia She and Jia Lian laughed in unison. Jia Lian pointed at him and couldn't speak for half a day.

After a while, Jia Lian said again: "It's just like this that it will force the old lady into anger and really sue the master for disobedience?"

Jia Cong smiled and said, "The second brother is too worried. Now the master has complete evidence. She only dares to threaten the master and does not dare to force him seriously. Otherwise, if he would be defeated, he would probably take the big sister in the palace. They even stretched their necks and waited for the big sister to be the queen!" The three masters laughed again.

The next day, a large piece of paper was posted at the door of the account room, with three lines of large characters at the top:

Second house owes public account

Four hundred thousand three thousand eight hundred and thirty taels

Interest to be calculated

Every time a second house came to collect the money, he did not give it any money and deducted the corresponding numbers on the paper. Whether it was the monthly money of Jia Zheng, the wife of Jia Baoyu, the monthly money of the servants in their house, whether it was the flattery of Jia Zhengqingke or the silver that Baoyu went to the clan to learn...
