Fan Zhongyu clapped his hands and said: "Excellent, Mei Zhangyuan's plan is indeed vicious. Whether it is reputation or talent, this kid Jia Huan is more orthodox. How can Feng Qi be compared with him?"
"As long as we push with all our strength, we will definitely push that little kid to the position of magistrate of Ping'an County. And just a little kid, by using some random tricks, can make him suffer."
After Fan Zhongyu finished speaking, other officials also praised Mei Hanlin for his vicious strategy.
We were all very happy when we finally decided on a plan to deal with the changes.
Only Mei Hanlin had a bad face and was very unhappy.
These guys, if you don’t know how to praise others, don’t praise them forcefully. What do you mean my plan is vicious? This is obviously a brilliant conspiracy, okay?
The plan was decided, and next, these ministers happily drank some wine.
…
When Jia Huan returned to Ninglu Hall, Qingwen was the first to greet him and helped him take off his official clothes and put on his regular clothes.
Then he couldn't help but said to Jia Huan: "Third Master, don't you know? Second Master Lian of Xifu was beaten. I heard that his face was disfigured. I'm afraid he won't be able to go out these days."
Huh? Jia Lian was beaten? What does this say? Who beat him?
Could it be someone from Yuan Ping's lineage? Are they going for Jia Lian or the entire Jia family?
Jia Huan couldn't help but ask: "Qingwen, who beat Brother Lian? For what reason?"
Qingwen smiled and said, "Third Master, I heard that it was because the eldest master of Xifu heard that a man named Shi Duozi had twenty good fans, so the eldest master sent Second Master Lian to take a look."
"Second Master Lian asked for so many favors, and it took so long to meet him. I saw the fans in his hand. They were all made of Xiang Fei, Palm Bamboo, Elk, and Polygonatum odoratum. They were all authentic paintings by ancient people."
"As soon as Mr. Lian came back, Mr. Xifu asked Mr. Lian to buy it with the silver. He gave him as much silver as he wanted. And he took the silver first and then the fan."
"But the stone idiot is also a bad-tempered person. He said he would starve to death and freeze to death. Even if he had a thousand taels of silver, he wouldn't sell it. Mr. Lian took five hundred taels of silver to buy it, and the stone idiot said he wanted the fan first. Killed him."
"They just refused to sell it, and there was nothing Mr. Lian could do. Who knows, an official named Jia Yutian found out about it, so he tried to blackmail the idiot into defaulting on the official money and took him to the Yamen."
"Then he sold off the property of Shiduzi's family to pay for the money he owed. He copied the fan, paid it the official price, and gave it to the eldest man."
"The elder held the fan in Mr. Lian's face and asked, "How did they get it?" Mr. Lian only said one thing: It's not like he can do anything to make someone lose their fortune for such a trivial matter. "
"Then I was beaten up by the elder, and a piece of skin was broken on my face. I heard that I even went to Lixiangyuan to find Aunt Xue to find some sore medicine!"
Hearing this, Jia Huan felt relieved.
It turned out that this time, he was beaten by Jia She, as long as he was not beaten by someone from Yuan Ping's lineage.
Jia Huan couldn't help but smile and said: "Qingwen, you know everything now. No matter what happens in Xifu, you know it all."
Qingwen snorted and said, "That's natural. I have a few good sisters in Xifu who are helping me find out the news."
"There are many bad people in Xifu, and many of them want to harm us. Naturally, I have to keep an eye on it for Third Master! Besides, Aunt Zhao is still in Xifu, so I have to get more information."
Hearing this, Jia Huan couldn't help but feel guilty.
As a son, he actually cared less about Aunt Zhao than Qingwen, a girl.
Jia Huan went to Xifu to visit Lin Daiyu almost every day, but he never visited Aunt Zhao a few times...
Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "Qingwen, you are serious."
Qingwen smiled proudly and said, "That's not true. How can I not take the Third Master's matter to heart?"
At this time, someone outside heard someone say: "Qingwen is a rare loyal girl. Brother Huan, if you don't reward her heavily, even I won't be able to stand it."
But it turns out that Lin Daiyu is here. Lin Daiyu has become half the mistress of Ningguo Mansion. Naturally, she does not need to be notified when she comes to Ningguo Mansion.
Qingwen stood up and walked to Lin Daiyu, took her arm and shook her: "Miss Lin, I always thought you were a good person, but I didn't expect you to make fun of me too!"
Lin Daiyu looked at Qingwen and smiled and said: "This is strange again. I clearly said that you are a rare and loyal girl. How can I make fun of you again by asking Brother Huan to reward you heavily?"
Qingwen smiled and said: "Miss Lin, I'm stupid and can't speak to you. Whatever you say is what you say. I'll get you some tea."
Lin Daiyu looked at Qingwen and smiled.
She knew that Qingwen was sharp-tongued and unwilling to let others go, but this girl had always been cautious in front of her, for fear of saying the wrong thing.
No matter what happens, he always comes to please her.
Lin Daiyu naturally knew the little thoughts she had in her heart, but Lin Daiyu herself quite liked this girl.
Although he has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, he is straightforward and has no bad intentions.
Not long after, Qingwen carefully brought tea to Lin Daiyu.
Jia Huan couldn't help but ask Lin Daiyu: "Sister Lin, has my uncle written to you recently? I wonder how he is doing?"
Now Jia Huan is quite concerned about Lin Ruhai's health, and I don't know if his reminder last time was of any use.
Lin Daiyu said: "I also received a letter from my father at the end of last month, and he asked me to thank you for him in the letter. My father's health is still not good, but it has not continued to deteriorate, which is thanks to your blessing."
Jia Huan nodded and said, "That's good. It's better to think of a way. It's best to ask my uncle to be transferred back to the capital. This will also allow you to have a good life, reunite your father and daughter, and save you from missing me every day."
Lin Daiyu sighed: "That's exactly what he said. It's just that my father is devoted to the country, so how can he care about his own body? For the sake of the great cause of the family and the country, he can give up even my daughter."
Hearing this, Jia Huan sighed in his heart and couldn't persuade him any more.
Lin Daiyu had some complaints about Lin Ruhai.
After all, Lin Ruhai ruthlessly sent her to the Jia family when she was six years old.
However, at that time, Jia Mu sent someone to pick her up, and it was very dangerous to stay in Yangzhou.
Lin Ruhai lost his son first and then his wife. How could he know that those evil people would not let him lose his daughter again next?
He didn't dare to keep Lin Daiyu by his side.
Lin Daiyu also knows this truth. However, she has been away from her father since she was young. How can she not complain?
Lin Daiyu couldn't help but said: "Brother Huan, let's not talk about this. Do you know that the elder has found a marriage for his second sister today?"
Um?
A wedding to welcome the Spring Festival? Could it be that he is still the Zhongshan Wolf Sun Shaozu?
Jia Huan couldn't help but look at Qingwen.
Qingwen knows everything, including asking questions. Just now he only talked about Jia Lian's beating, but not about this incident.
Qingwen quickly shook her head and said, "Third Master, I don't know about this. I haven't received the letter yet! It will probably take another two or three days for the message to arrive."
