In the study, Jia Cong was lying on the desk, frowning and writing letters, sighing from time to time, and there was more ink on his face than the writing on the paper.
Jia Lian handed several greeting cards to Daiyu with a solemn expression.
"In the future, Pei Weisheng, the governor of water transportation, Zhen Yingjia, the president of Jinling Tirenyuan, Tang Guangbiao, the prefect of Yangzhou, and many fellow villagers from Jiangnan will come to visit my uncle. Many female relatives will also come, so my cousin must be prepared."
Daiyu looked at the invitation in her hand, and saw that there were more than ten families who were either high-ranking officials or high-ranking gentry.
Daiyu, who had never received any relevant instruction, was a little confused for a moment and wanted to shake her head to avoid it.
However, Jia Lian seemed to have known this situation for a long time. He forced Daiyu to go to Liangshan with one sentence: "My cousin can't hide even if she wants to. You are the only one who is responsible for the Lin family. Should I ask my aunt to come forward to entertain those noble ladies? The reputation of the Lin family is still high. No more?"
Snapped! Click!
Before Daiyu could respond, there was a clear sound of breaking wood, and Jia Cong, who was writing a letter at the side, suddenly cried out.
It turned out that Jia Cong was halfway through writing the letter. After hearing what Jia Lian said, he suddenly became angry. In anger, he slammed the pen in his hand on the table. The pen broke, but his hand was also injured. pain.
"Second brother, these people did this on purpose!"
Jia Cong covered his hands and jumped off the chair, took the greeting card from Dai Yu's hand and pointed to a person's name on it and said: "There are several high-ranking families in Jiangnan who don't know about my uncle's family. They know that there is no one in charge of the Lin family's house, so they still Come to visit with your female relatives. What are you doing? Do you want to see the Lin family’s jokes? "
"I know!"
Daiyu suddenly spoke, interrupting Jia Cong's analysis.
She smiled and said: "It's a lie to visit my father, but it's true to come here to test. Compared with uncle's reputation, they are more willing to explore the way from me. After all, uncle will knock on the door whenever he disagrees with me. I am a little kid." Girls are much easier to deal with. They are young, have little experience and are easy to deceive. Maybe they can get the information they want from me!"
Jia Lian praised appreciatively: "My cousin is really smart, and my father thinks so too. I wonder if you want me to help you with some advice?"
Daiyu looked at Jia Lian with some embarrassment and said hesitantly: "There is something that I really need Brother Lian's help with, but it may damage Brother Lian's reputation."
"Oh? Tell me."
Just listen to Daiyu say: "It's rude to come back without reciprocating. Since they want to make plans for me, they have to pay some price. I may anger a few people in the future, so I will ask Brother Lian to help me." Sister, support me."
Jia Cong stared dumbfoundedly at Daiyu, who was gradually turning black. He couldn't react for a long time.
On the other hand, Jia Lian admired Daiyu in such a state and asked with a smile: "Which family are you planning to start with, cousin? How can I support you if you need me, brother?"
Daiyu smiled shyly and replied: "Little sister, I think these families who came with Magistrate Tang are good. The Tang family's greeting card said that Mrs. Tang will bring his eldest daughter, and the salt merchant Lu Family, Yang family, Tan family...these families have been causing trouble for dad in recent years. Is Brother Lian interested in imitating your uncle and helping them repair their yards?"
Jia Lian picked up the tea cup, bowed from a distance, and said with a smile: "You can inherit your father's legacy, cousin, you can rest assured, just go ahead and do it!"
…
Jia Lian, who was inspired by Dai Yu, hurried to seek advice from his father. Only Jia Cong and Dai Yu were left in the study.
Jia Cong looked at Daiyu with a resentful look on his face, and the puddles of ink on his face deepened his resentment.
"Sister Lin really has a new person and has forgotten the old one. It's such a fun thing for you to go to your second brother instead of me..."
Snapped!
Without hesitation, Daiyu patted Jia Cong's head gently, picked up the handkerchief in the basin, twisted it, and wiped it on Jia Cong's face.
After finally wiping Jia Cong's face until it turned red, he put down his handkerchief and explained to him: "Do you think this is a joke? You might offend a lot of people. Everyone in this group of salt merchants in Jiangnan is standing behind them. There is a high-ranking official in the court, and behind the Tang family is the Jinling Zhen family. Apart from the eldest uncle, only the second brother Lian has the ability to block the counterattack of these people. Speaking of which, I feel a little worried, Lian Er Will something happen to me because of this..."
Jia Cong admired Daiyu a little, a little person actually knew so much. She was less than ten years old, and the old lady would never talk about this to the girls at home. During these days on the boat, Jia She would call the three of them from time to time to talk about official affairs in Jiangnan.
I didn't expect Daiyu to be able to sort out the relationship between Jiangnan officials and businessmen to this extent in just twenty days. She is indeed a fairy with innate wisdom.
"You don't have to worry about this. Sister Lin, don't forget that the two hundred Yu Lin Lang said they were transporting the things given by the saint. In fact, they were sent by the saint to protect us. According to dad's analysis, the saint is already dissatisfied with these people in Jiangnan. Yes, I intend to let dad stir up troubled waters in the south of the Yangtze River."
Jia Cong pointed to the letter he had written on the table and said with pride: "Look, I am writing a letter to the saint and your majesty. Two hundred people are not enough. I will ask the saint and your majesty to send more troops. Confuse the situation. I am very skilled in water matters, and I will definitely let these people know the terrible consequences of offending us!"
…
Yangzhou City, as a major salt class town, would naturally have spy organizations such as the Dragon Guards spying on military aircraft.
On the day Jia She and others arrived in Yangzhou, the Longjin Guard Yangzhou Qianhu Station received a secret letter from Jia She.
In a teahouse not far from the Lin Mansion, the old god Jia She was sipping tea. There was also a middle-aged man wearing a fifth-grade military uniform sitting in the elegant room.
"Hou Enhou, Ruhai was poisoned because I didn't take good care of it... I quickly sent a letter to the capital, but I sent three secret letters in a row, but I never received a reply from the capital. In this regard, my little brother also I’m very confused as to what went wrong…”
"Liu Congxi, this is not the reason for your dereliction of duty!"
Jia She interrupted Liu Congxi's explanation and angrily said: "Back then, you were suppressed by others in the Liu family and saw no hope of success. I begged the old man to try my best to fish you out of the vortex of the Liu family. I also provided money and effort. Filled in the Dragon Guard's errand. I didn't ask you to do anything, right? The dignified Dragon Guard Qianhu not only had my sister harmed, but now even my brother-in-law was murdered under your nose. Liu Cong Xi, tell me if I can still treat you as a brother!"
Liu Congxi also looked regretful. In just a few years, not only had he failed to take care of Jia Min, but now he had put Lin Ruhai in crisis.
Back then, my husband sacrificed his dignity to rescue him from the whirlpool of Li Guogong's mansion, and also tried his best to build a bridge for himself. Only then did he have the Dragon Imperial Guard Qianhu Liucongxi Liu Sanye.
Just as Jia She said, Rongguo Mansion was so helpful to him and never asked him for anything. It just wanted him to help protect Jia Min and his wife, but this matter...
Oh, what a shame this was done!
