Jia Lian didn't know that women had so many thoughts, and he couldn't explain it to Wang Xifeng in detail. Faced with Wang Xifeng's suspicion, he just said: "I have my own uses."
How could Wang Xifeng agree with these words? She immediately said with a smile: "It is said that Yangzhou is the most lively and prosperous place in the world. I'm afraid you have already thought about how to have fun and are worried that you don't have enough money, so you are looking for Shall I prepare some in advance?"
Jia Lian frowned: "Is this how you look at me?"
"Otherwise? Who in the two houses doesn't know about Second Master Lian's romantic affair?"
Jia Lian sighed in his heart. Sure enough, once trust between people is lost, it is difficult to build it again.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you, just forget it if you don't give it."
It's inevitable, and he can only learn from his predecessor's ability to enrich his own pockets. Fortunately, he had intentionally received an extra budget before. He wanted to save some money on this trip, so he could save a lot...
Seeing that Jia Lian had no intention of entangled at all, Wang Xifeng couldn't control Jia Lian's thoughts.
Thinking of the wonderful night, and not wanting to disgrace Jia Lian too much, he asked, "How much do you want?"
"Give me a thousand taels first..."
Wang Xifeng almost sneered and looked at Jia Lian like a fool.
"One thousand taels? Mr. Lian really doesn't know how expensive firewood and rice are. My monthly salary is only five taels of silver. Where do you want me to get you this thousand taels of silver now?"
In response to Wang Xifeng's ridicule, Jia Lian was also annoyed and said: "We are all knowledgeable people. What do you mean by this? Don't I know that a few months of money has never been in the eyes of your Second Grandma Feng?"
The Wang family and the Jia family are both the four major families in Jinling, let alone the dowry that Wang Xifeng came with. Just say that in the two years since she got married, she has made an unknown amount of extra money through the help of the housekeeper, plus the rewards she received from her elders. How can it be compared to five or two months a month?
What’s more, in the past, Jia Lian’s savings and income also fell into the hands of Wang Xifeng. In the past year, Jia Lian became scheming and began to intentionally separate the accounts with Wang Xifeng so that he could have more money for drinking and watching movies. .
Therefore, at this time, Wang Xifeng could afford at least seven or eight thousand taels in cash alone, not to mention anything else!
"Only twenty taels, not much more!" Wang Xifeng said seriously.
Jia Lian said no more.
Twenty taels, should I send Grandma Liu away?
Because I have to put on my clothes and leave.
Perhaps because she didn’t want her friendship to end overnight, Wang Xifeng finally endured the unhappiness in her heart. Regardless of the fact that she hadn’t changed her clothes yet, she jumped down and grabbed Jia Lian: “You suddenly want so much money, you have to give me a reason, otherwise how can I give it to you?” You? According to your corrupt behavior, even if your family has millions of dollars, it won’t be enough for you to spend!"
Rarely, Wang Xifeng began to reason with him.
Jia Lian thought for a while and suddenly said: "Let me ask you, are you really willing to be the steward of this house for the rest of your life?"
"Otherwise? Are you willing to go back there?"
Wang Xifeng asked back.
It is true that in Wang Xifeng's eyes, even if he is just a housekeeper, it is ten times better here than in Dongkuoyuan!
Not only did she have to serve the immoral and incompetent Jia She and Mrs. Go to the edge.
Although seriously speaking, that is her and Jia Lian's home.
This is actually what Jia Lian had thought before. I have to say that on this point, the two of them can completely reach a consensus.
Jia Lian continued: "Then have you ever thought about how your wife will depend on you now? What will happen in the future? In a few years, Baoyu will grow up and take a daughter-in-law. When the new second grandmother Bao comes in, what do you think? Will your wife still let you continue to be the housekeeper?"
Wang Xifeng was startled and looked at Jia Lian.
She understood the meaning of Jia Lian's words, she was just surprised by Jia Lian's tone.
"It's hard for you to think long-term. When the time comes, my wife won't let me take care of the house anymore. I have no choice but to follow you back there and live a life of poverty. Alas, since I have followed you in this life, I will marry the chicken as the chicken goes. Dogs follow dogs, where do you go, where do I go, and why should I choose?" Wang Xifeng sighed.
That calm and ready tone really made her look like a good wife and mother.
Jia Lian then laughed: "Why, have you never thought about taking over from my wife and becoming the real mistress of this house in the future?"
Wang Xifeng frowned completely, "What nonsense are you talking about? What kind of real mistress? The family property in this house will naturally belong to Baoyu in the future. What does it have to do with me?"
"Oh, Baoyu's? That's not necessarily the case..."
Facing Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
She suddenly became nervous and glanced at the door subconsciously before grabbing Jia Lian's arm: "You want to compete with Baoyu for the property here?"
"What, you think it's not possible?
In terms of inheritance sequence, ours is the eldest family. In terms of legal regulations, we here inherit the title of our ancestors.
Tell me, who should own this Rongguo Mansion family property? "
Wang Xifeng's pupils were shocked.
Jia Lian's words sounded like thunder to her ears.
The theory seems to make some sense, but it is seriously inconsistent with the current situation!
Jia Zheng and Jia She have actually separated! Because the accounts of the house here and those of Dongkuaoyuan have long been separated, and Jia Zheng has been the owner of this house more than ten years ago!
No matter what grudges and entanglements there are, it is a matter of the previous generation, and it is an established fact that Jia She will become the loser in the division of family property.
As an elder, even Jia She, who has a first-grade title, cannot change this fact. After so many years, can they, the juniors, turn the matter around?
Although she knew it was impossible, Wang Xifeng was still aroused by Jia Lian's words.
As a woman with a strong desire for power, why didn't she want to be like Mrs. Wang and become the real mistress of this huge palace? But she didn't dare to think about it before, not only because the matter was a foregone conclusion, but also because she felt that even if they were given a chance, they wouldn't be able to compete.
Just the three of them, an old drunkard and an old pervert, plus a little pervert, and paired with a good-for-nothing Mrs. Xing, how could they be the match for the old lady, uncle and aunt?
"Are you serious? Is this what you mean, or is it what the great master thinks?"
Wang Xifeng became anxious.
Although she was somewhat loyal to Mrs. Wang, facing the temptation of power and wealth, she had to seriously consider the possibility.
She felt that if Jia She was really ruthless and wanted to take back the family property, there might be a chance to do it.
Because although Jia She was incompetent, his ancestral title was real.
As long as, as long as the old lady can wait until the old lady returns to the west, and the big master no longer has to suppress him, he might be able to get this piece of furniture back with brute force.
Seeing that Wang Xifeng was anxious, Jia Lian laughed again.
He glanced at Wang Xifeng, because she was in a hurry to get out of bed, and she had no clothes on. She only had a bright red bellyband and a pair of loose and thin pajamas, and even the personal belongings underneath were vaguely visible.
Such refreshing Feng Lazi is unparalleled in its allure.
Not daring to look too closely, Jia Lian had no choice but to say: "I'm just asking you casually, who can say clearly what will happen in the future?
Now you just have to serve the old lady well and establish a solid foundation in this house, and you'd better not reveal even half of what I said to you today.
In a year or two, there will be a huge happy event for our family. By then, the momentum of the master and the wife will be even stronger, and those ideas will naturally be even less likely to be realized. "
Jia Lian was talking about the concubine's appointment in Yuanchun.
Jia Zheng was originally a minister of the imperial court, and Mrs. Wang was a direct descendant of the Wang family and the biological sister of Wang Ziteng, the military governor of Beijing. The Jia She and his wife, who were already suppressed by these two couples, could not be upset.
When Yuanchun was granted the title of concubine or even noble concubine in the future, the status of Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang would become more respected, and their status would naturally become more stable.
If you want to drive the imperial concubine’s biological mother and biological father out of the house, you have to ask the imperial concubine if she agrees!
Perhaps, this was the defensive move made by Jia Zheng and his wife to prevent Jia She from restarting the idea of separating the family after the death of old lady Jia Mu. The outcome proved that this move was not only successful, but also perfect beyond expectations.
Jia Zheng is indeed a winner in life...
