Chapter 636 Ding Zijuan did not regard himself as an outsider
For Feng Ziying’s letter, after such a time travel, it would undoubtedly be a great pity if the famous Grand View Garden in "A Dream of Red Mansions" was annihilated in this time and space because of himself.
He didn't know how the Grand View Garden Jia's house was built, nor where the architectural designers and craftsmen they hired, but based on the description in the book and the countless versions copied from the description in the book alone, You can all feel the beauty and splendor of this garden.
In a sense, he found that he was still unwilling to break the trajectory of some classics in the original book "Dream of Red Mansions". Of course, if flower-like women like Daiyu, Qingwen and Jin Chuaner were to wither away, let Qianhong like Yingchun and Xiangyun ended up miserable when they cried, which he would never accept.
So what he can do is to keep the good side as much as possible and make the unsatisfactory things perfect under his own influence, that's all.
The Grand View Garden is undoubtedly the most important part. If Lin Ruhai refuses to lend money to the Jia family because of his interference, the Grand View Garden will no longer appear or be less perfect, causing the girls who should live in it to lose countless beautiful things. It was undoubtedly a big pity that he didn't want the opportunity of the story. Of course, he also hoped that the male protagonist here would automatically be replaced by himself.
Well, maybe one day, this Grand View Garden can still fall into my own hands. Wouldn’t that be better?
Neither Jia She nor Jia Zheng expected that Feng Ziying would support the construction of the garden so enthusiastically and actively, and even enthusiastically "plan" the future use of the garden, which surprised them both.
In their view, Lin Ruhai's 150,000 taels of silver were lent to the Jia family. Logically speaking, if Lin Daiyu was to marry Feng Ziying, then the 150,000 taels of silver should be returned in the form of a dowry when Lin Daiyu got married. Jia She had previously said Saying that the Rongguo Mansion is in trouble now, it might as well be to inoculate Feng Ziying and remind her not to have too much hope that Daiyu will be able to recover the money when she gets married in three years.
It's impossible for a smart person like Feng Ziying not to understand the hidden meaning, but the other party didn't seem to care, and even discussed with great interest the idea of letting the girls move in after the garden was built for the imperial concubine to get married.
What is this person thinking? Or is the Feng family really so rich that they don't even care about 150,000 taels of silver? That would be an exaggeration.
However, Feng Ziying's gesture still made Jia She Jia Zheng feel a lot relieved. As long as the Feng family didn't care about the return time of the 150,000 taels of silver, everything would be easy to negotiate.
As for the Jia family, how to build a perfect garden as soon as possible and let those people in the capital city who are staring at the family clearly see the background of the Rongning Jia family is beyond the reach of the nouveau riche. Jia Guifei You can also hold your head high and your chest higher in the palace.
When Feng Ziying left Rongxi Hall and went to the old lady's yard, Jia Zheng and Jia She discussed the situation.
"It seems that the Feng family is really well-established. They actually don't care about 150,000 taels of silver. Second brother, do you think we underestimated the Feng family in the past? The Feng family has been rooted in Datong for many years, and Feng Tang has made a lot of money in Yulin. Year, it seems that their family wealth is not only three to five million taels, but maybe one million yuan."
When Jia She talked about silver, his eyes couldn't help but shine, "The Feng family is also like a tortoise with meat inside its shell. You can't see it from the outside. Look at their house in Fengcheng Hutong. It used to be cramped. Later, I heard that the old houses on both sides were bought and renovated to make them look decent. If Lin Yatou gets married in the future, I don’t know whether she will live in this old house or build a new one?..."
"Brother, is it too early to say this now? The daughter of the Shen family should marry first. If Ruhai is unlucky, Lin Yatou will have to observe filial piety for three years." Jia Zheng shook his head, "But the third wife of the Feng family Du Miao, I'm afraid, will not be separated, and will probably be rebuilt on the original old house. As the eldest brother said, if the Feng family is so well-founded, they will definitely not treat Lin Yatou badly."
"Well, if you really are so rich, second brother, do you think we can temporarily ignore the return of our 150,000 taels of silver? With the situation in our house, how can we collect more than 100,000 taels of silver in two or three years? Jia She then made it clear what he meant, "I think Ziying is also a reasonable person. If we owe debts, we will not default on them. If we are really rich in the future, of course we will have to pay them back."
Jia Zheng looked embarrassed for a while, but could not respond.
Of course he knew that the debt would not only be repaid in two or three years, but also might not be repaid in ten or eight years. The Jia family was so big that it was in the red every year. They demolished the east wall to pay for the west wall. Some can't hold on, let alone collect the money to pay off the debt.
If you really want to pay back the money, then only the seller will be the one to take it, but how many valuable items are there in the house?
Jia Zheng is thinking about how to pay off the debt in the future, but Jia She's mind has turned to the question of why the Feng family is so rich.
So Sun Shaozu wrote a letter a few days ago asking him to pay back the money, but how can he have the money to pay him back? Even if there is, if it goes into your pocket, how can it get out?
The guy then said he was willing to marry the second girl, and was even willing to give her another five thousand taels of silver.
Even though the man had an ugly life, a bad temper, was in his thirties, and was still married, his family wealth was extremely rich, so it was not unacceptable after all.
Mrs. If you are so rich, if you can come up with 20,000 to 30,000 silver, it is not impossible to consider.
************
Going to Jia Mu’s yard was another scene.
Perhaps Jia Mu is sincerely happy, but for people like Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng, and Li Wan, the mood may not be as pure and joyful as Jia Mu's, and is probably mixed with some other feelings.
Even girls like Jia Yingchun, Tanchun and Xichun have some very subtle and complicated thoughts.
Seeing that a close friend who was just like me suddenly found a good family, and one that everyone knew and was even familiar with, this feeling is really difficult to describe in one or two words.
But for Feng Ziying, he didn't care about that much. He could only say hello in a polite manner, and then introduced the situation of Lin Ruhai and Lin Daiyu. By the way, he also briefly introduced some things about his business trip south to Yangzhou, which made him happy. A bunch of women listened with great interest.
Being sent out by Yuanyang under the gaze of others, this happened to be an opportunity. Feng Ziying was also saying that she wanted to ask Yuanyang for something.
With Jinling, both Feng Ziying and Yuanyang felt much closer to each other.
"Yuanyang, let's go over there and talk about something. I just asked you to ask me something." Feng Ziying walked out of Jia Mu's yard and then spoke.
Yuanyang glanced at Feng Ziying and knew that this person was not someone who didn't know the importance of things. He pursed his lips and smiled, "Uncle Feng, do you have anything to ask of your servant? Just give me your order, as long as I can do it..."
“Don’t say anything about going to bed and raging to death, I won’t listen.” Feng Ziying laughed and walked out, “It’s just a woman’s business, after thinking about it, you are the most suitable mandarin duck, so...”
"Huh?!" Yuanyang's face was slightly hot, and he didn't know what this man meant. How could a woman trust herself with her family affairs?
Feng Ziying was not afraid of Yuanyang's misunderstanding, and he didn't have any thoughts about Yuanyang now. The two of them walked aside, and then Feng Ziying spoke.
Hearing Feng Ziying explain the whole story, Yuanyang finally understood.
It is nothing new that Eryou, the sister-in-law of Dongfu Zhen’s sister-in-law, Eryou, followed Feng Ziying. It is said that they had a connection with Feng Ziying during his Western expedition to suppress the rebellion.
It's just that the innocent daughter's family, although she is Xiaojiabiyu, was raised outside by Feng Ziying, which still aroused some criticism from people in the house. For this reason, Yuanyang even defended Feng Ziying twice.
This man also likes this kind of food, but Yuanyang doesn't think anything of it. After all, who of this man is not good at this kind of thing? It is said that the second master, Fang Zhengsi, was also reluctant to part with Aunt Zhao,...
It is normal for men to like women, but they must distinguish the importance and be considerate. Hearing Feng Ziying say this, Yuanyang actually respected Feng Ziying even more.
"Uncle Feng, you said it's easy to buy a few pairs of jewelry and clothes. Can't Jin Chuaner and the others do it?" Yuanyang was quite surprised.
Feng Ziying scratched her head in embarrassment, "Jinchuaner must have been able to do it, but didn't I just take Sister You into the house? You also know that I am not married yet, and it is not easy to bring Sister You home. , I can only wrong them for living outside, and I have to give them an explanation. I never thought that staying overnight there that day and not coming back would make Jin Chuaner and the others a little unhappy. I am not willing to let this matter happen again. Jin Chuan'er and the others felt a knot in their hearts..."
Seeing that Feng Ziying did not hide such things from herself, Yuanyang felt moved and proud, and at the same time he was also a little happy for Jin Chuaner and the others.
This person is quite considerate and soft-hearted in this regard, and he can actually take care of Jin Chuan'er and the others' concerns.
It's no secret that Jin Chuan'er and Xiang Ling have been combed by this man for a long time. There is still a big difference between this young virgin and a woman. After Jin Chuan'er and Xiang Ling have been to Jia's house a few times, everyone will know whether they are or not. She is a young girl, and the white old daughter-in-law also talks about how her eldest daughter is doing from time to time. How can everyone not understand?
"Okay, let me tell you what kind of head and face jewelry you want to choose for your two aunts, as well as the clothes. My aunt can't use bright red ones, but can only use peach, red, and pink ones. I will go look for them tomorrow. That familiar one..."
Do you still have three or five monthly passes?
