Chapter 131: Aftermath of Jia's House
Jia Huan's carriage slowly left the front of Jia Mansion in Sishifang, left from the west gate of the inner city, and headed west. On a winter morning, a series of cart shadows fell in the warm sunshine.
In the Jia Mansion, Baoyu gradually stabilized due to the messy situation of being beaten by Jia Zheng. Jia Baoyu, who was beaten by Jia Zheng, was carried back to his residence to rest.
After visiting Mu Jia, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan and others, Baochai, Tanchun, Yingchun, Xichun and others took their maids to talk to Baoyu for a while before leaving.
Baoyu was depressed, sad, and uncomfortable. Daiyu, who lives next to Baoyu, came to visit her. Her eyes were a little red and swollen. She sat next to the bed, looked at Baoyu who was lying on her face and asked softly: "Does it still hurt?"
She and Baoyu are all childhood sweethearts, eating and playing together, and have similar interests. Although they are old, their relationship is indeed closer than others. Seeing that he was injured by his uncle and was about to be raised for a month, I felt a little sad. I looked at him alone and came to see him alone.
Baoyu grinned and comforted: "This will be better. Don't worry, sister."
Daiyu advised, "Don't mess with him again in the future!" The reason why Baoyu was beaten was spread all over the mansion. Brother Huan complained to the master: to reveal the matter between Baoyu and Qin Zhong.
Baoyu looked depressed. He knew that this was Jia Huan's warning to him, but he felt extremely unhappy. He said angrily in front of Lin Daiyu who was with him: "The third brother Huan, that kind of heartless heart. What did I do to him in the past as my brother? He actually said to the master that I was not."
Daiyu sighed softly. She had a good relationship with Baoyu, but she had not yet reached the point of not distinguishing right from wrong. Brother Huan was a man in his room (a concubine).
Brother Huan is very proud. If you don’t mess with him, he is easy to talk to. Of course, she won’t say anything about Baoyu. After all, she has a good relationship with Baoyu and is just as good as Brother Huan.
As the two were talking, Xiren came into the room. She knew that Baoyu was angry and asked Baoyu softly if he wanted to drink soup, whether he would be hungry or not.
Baoyu looked at Xiren again and felt a little complicated. He sighed and talked to her. His resistance to her was a little smaller.
He really doesn't plan to get involved in people related to Jia Huan anymore. It's a waste of time to get beaten up!
…
Baochai and Sanchun came out of Baoyu's room, said goodbye to Yingchun and Xichun, and took the excuse to sit in Tanchun's room. The layout of Tanchun's room is transparent, from the living room to the desk. The layout is grand.
Baochai and Tanchun sat in the hall and talked. Tanchun's maid Cuimo burned the charcoal basin and came over to serve hot tea. The cold temperature gradually dissipated.
Baochai sat on the ring chair, holding Xiangming, and sighed: "Three sisters, Brother Huan's complaint... was a bit reckless."
Tanchun smiled bitterly: "Not! The third brother didn't tell me."
She really didn't know. If she knew, she would definitely persuade Jia Huan. Baoyu is the lifeblood of the old lady. A few years ago, Baoyu beat the master a few times and said that it was the one who was managed by Mr. Zhen in the East Mansion. The old lady knew about it and called Mr. Zhen over and scolded him.
The old lady originally had a superficial justice and a sense of comfort, but now she had nothing left. She could only hate.
Baochai nodded. She was a little surprised. In her opinion, Brother Huan played Brother Bao and asked Qingwen to return, the matter would be over. But Brother Huan actually wanted to revenge! It was too irrational.
…
When Jia Huan designed Baoyu, the people in the Jia family had different ideas. They were fear, surrender, worried, blamed, angry, resentful, etc.
But Feng Jie didn't care about these things for the time being. After visiting Baoyu and having dinner at Jia Mu, she returned to the conference hall and turned down everything, asking her book Tong Caiming to read to her the business plan for the 10,000 taels of silver that Ping'er brought from Jia Huan in the morning.
She knew that Jia Huan had such a habit and didn't mind. Because of the written records, the information conveyed was more and more abundant than spoken language. However, the more Cai Ming read, the more confused she became. She really couldn't understand Jia Huan's plan.
In the plan, Jia Huan suggested that Fengjie open a rouge shop and then take all the rouge purchase rights in the mansion back. This item alone can earn more than a thousand taels of silver in a year. Then, the rouge shop, production, packaging, and publicity are raised, and then recommended to the nobles in the capital. After making it into a brand, it will be sold in places such as Jiangnan and other places, and it will be absolutely no problem to earn 10,000 taels a year.
Fengjie is very experienced in how to acquire the right to acquire rouge in the mansion, but he is ignorant of what brand to build. Fengjie cannot understand the series of modern words in Jia Huan's plan at all.
Wang Xifeng drank tea and asked her confidant assistant Ping'er, "Do you understand?"
Ping'er smiled bitterly and said, "Grandma, how can I understand it! Go and ask him!"
Wang Xifeng stared at Danfeng's eyes in shame and anger, and a sense of fire surged in her heart, saying, "I have a lot of things every day, and I have time to talk to him. Huan Lao San, a bastard, didn't keep his promises. I will only trade with him in the future."
She seemed to have cheated Jia Huan.
Jia Huan did fulfill his promise and gave her a business that would earn 10,000 taels of silver a year, but she couldn't make it. There were too many names in it and she couldn't figure it out. However, Jia Huan told Ping'er that he could ask him. This was her problem. But it was so annoying!
For example, the business difficulty of the honeycomb coal business that Jia Huan gave to Jia Lian was about 8:2. It was 20% but Jia Lian couldn't eat it. Jia Lian didn't have that ability. The business that Jia Huan gave to Wang Xifeng was 2:8. Wang Xifeng's ability could only eat 20%.
Jia Huan is an open conspiracy. Wang Xifeng suffered a loss.
Ping'er heard that Feng Jie scolded Jia Huan, and saw that Feng Jie had no intention of causing trouble for Jia Huan. She could earn about one or two thousand silver per year, so she felt relieved. She smiled speechlessly.
This is the style of Master Huan San’s work! If he is so generous that he can earn 10,000 yuan a year for his grandma, it will be a business that will make money. It’s just that he has a temporary cooperation and the grudges are not over yet!
The little pits were connected to each other, and my grandma was afraid of being very afraid.
…
Daiyu left after visiting Baoyu. In the afternoon, Xiren, Meiren, Qianxue and others served and drank the soup sent by Jia Mu, and ate half a bowl of sugar-pickled rose braised rice. Baoyu fell asleep in a daze.
Xiren and a few went to the small hall outside to sit and talk, and had a brief rest. The quiet sunlight fell on the tables, stools, seats, tables, and cabinets. The decorations were exquisite and the rich spirit was restrained.
The maid in Baoyu's room was headed by Meiren at this time. She and Baoyu had already tried Yun Yu. Baoyu trusted her very much. But Xiren came from the old lady's house after all, and she received monthly money from the first-class maid. In the eyes of outsiders, Xiren was still headed by Baoyu's room.
He sent out all the little maids, and the charming figure of the plump figure, Qianxue looked at each other, stood up and apologized to Xiren, "Sister Xiren, I regret not listening to you. We did not advise the Second Master to let the Second Master suffer this."
Bao Erye’s rod sores need to be well for one month. (Note: Original book, in May, in the 13th year of the Red Lou, Baoyu was beaten for the death of Jin Chuan'er and was raised for 3 months.)
Xiren was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly charmed him. Qianxue helped him up and said, "It's not your fault. I suffered a great loss from Master Huan San, so I remember it in my heart. I didn't do your business. If you persuade me, I may not be able to persuade Master II."
Musk Moon and Qiu Wen have always been Xiren's supporter, and they all chuckled at this time.
But Xiren didn't feel much proud. She was worried about her own affairs. Yuanyang brought a message to Mr. Huan San's maid Ruyi and entrusted her to apologize, but the effect was unknown.
Master Huan San dared to take revenge like this, let alone her maid? You know, a few years ago, Mr. Zhen made Baoyu beaten by the master and scolded the old lady.
The third master did this and would offend the old lady. But he still did it, which infers the anger in his heart. Think about Zhou Rui and Lai Wang's wife's fate.
Xiren sighed faintly.
…
There was a quarrel in the Jia Mansion, and the storm spread outside the Jia Mansion. Some words were heard in private. For example, how did Mrs. Wang cry in her arms while holding Baoyu, and assassinating Jia Zheng with a soft and hard manner; how did Jia Mu scold Jia Zheng so much that she knelt on the ground.
In the evening, at Zhou Rui's home on Rongguo South Street outside Jia Mansion, Zhou Rui entertained his son-in-law Leng Zixing for wine in the small flower hall. A few big bowls and small plates were displayed. The wine smelled like a scent. When you were in a refreshing place, you would have to scold Jia Huan a few words.
Zhou Rui deprived him of the position of manager last year and plundered all his family's assets for the eldest master Jia She. Now he is only doing chores outside the mansion. Not to mention how much he hates the culprit: Jia Huan.
After taking a bowl of wine, Zhou Rui squirted and said, "I think he can still jump around now? Hey, instigating the master to beat Baoyu, the old lady was afraid that she would not hate him to death."
Leng Zixing opened a pawnshop west of Chongwenmen Street. He did not listen to his father-in-law's complaints, and savored the wine, saying, "I have heard of Jia Huan's reputation. A few days ago, Jia Yucun, the prefect of Jinling, wrote a letter to ask me: Is there anyone in the Jia Mansion?"
Zhou Rui was a little unhappy and stared at his son-in-law, "What do you mean? I will spread his reputation to Jinling?"
Leng Zixing put down his chopsticks and said heartily: "I told me, "It's better not to mess with him." In the Jia family, brothers can discipline brothers. Logically, Baoyu is protected by Mrs. Shi, so he can't touch, scold, or provoke him. Why do you want to make him successful?
This brother Huan is first-class in terms of skills and courage. If such a person is still restrained, Lao Taishan would rather stop him. If the wife in the mansion can suppress him, Lao Taishan might as well follow him and step on him a few times. If he can't suppress him, Lao Taishan must not be impulsive.
Lao Taishan thought about these words carefully in his heart.”
Zhou Rui was Mrs. Wang's companion room and knew very well about the matter in the Jia family. He was so excited that he poured a basin of water on his son-in-law. He suddenly felt cold. He picked up the wine bowl and took a big sip, and sighed: "Oh!"
He has to admit that he is a small character and can't afford to offend Jia Huan. He is so depressed.
