In October, the autumn air is crisp.
But in Qiushuangzhai, some people are unhappy.
"Tan girl, you have always had ideas, what should I do now?"
Yingchun found Tanchun anxiously.
As soon as she dismissed the maid, her tears fell.
"Second sister, please stop crying first."
Tanchun first took out a handkerchief and helped Yingchun wipe the tears on Yingchun's face twice.
Seeing her gradually calming down, he sighed:
"I know your original thoughts, but how is that possible?"
The two sisters got close and talked to each other about everything.
Tan Chun is probably the only one in the entire garden who knows about his thoughts about welcoming the spring.
It is precisely for this reason that whenever Yingchun encounters something, he immediately comes here to discuss it.
Tanchun had known that Yingchun was in love with Feng Yibo, but when he saw Yingchun crying, he could only advise:
"You usually don't fight or grab, but you are also a thoughtful person. How come you don't know that 'parents' orders' are so great?"
It turns out that since the Yuanyang incident, Jia She no longer dared to reach out to Jia Mu's courtyard.
But the lack of money has not been alleviated.
Just a few days before Jia's mother's birthday, Jia She made a new friend.
This person's name is Sun Shaozu.
This ancestor of Sun Shaozu was also an old friend of the Jia family.
The Sun family is a local wealthy family in Datong Prefecture, and their ancestors were born in the military.
The family is also considered wealthy.
In the past, the ancestor of the Sun family was one of the disciples who moved around in Ning Rong's mansion.
In this way, how to calculate is also old knowledge.
It’s just that I haven’t moved around in many years.
Sun Shaozu took over the command post before he was thirty.
But this command is just a false position.
Now he is wandering alone in the capital, just because he wants to be promoted to the Ministry of War.
Turn the empty duty of command into a real lack.
It's a pity that I have no way out, and I don't know where to spend the money.
It happened that the old lady of Rong Mansion celebrated her birthday, so he came to congratulate her with generous gifts.
The two brothers Jia She and Jia Zheng are quite old, and they still have some impressions of the Sun family.
But Jia Zheng felt that the Sun family were family friends.
But he was just Sun Shaozu's grandfather, who had the power of Ning Rong back then.
There are also things that can't be settled, so they worship at the door.
The Sun family was not a famous family in poetry and etiquette, but they were reckless in the army and gained power for a while.
In other words, Jia Zheng looked down upon Sun Shaozu's background and being a rude warrior in the army.
What he likes is that Feng Yibo has always been a Jinshi.
At least he is also a person who is knowledgeable and courteous.
As a result, Sun Shaozu would not be able to please the future "king of the country".
He could only do the next best thing and hug his brother's lap.
After going back and forth, Jia She was almost coaxed.
He asked Jia She to help him speak to the Ministry of War.
Several people recommended by Jia Zheng before are still closely related to the Jia family.
All of this was naturally seen by Jia She.
Although he also knew that Wang Ziteng was behind this.
But he also felt that even without Wang Ziteng, with the prestige of the Jia family, a mere military position should be within reach.
What's more, the current Minister of War is Jia Yucun, the nephew of the Jia family.
So he praised Haikou and accepted Sun Shaozu's filial piety.
He also sent people to Xinglong Street and Jiayu Village to tell them.
But the problem is that now that Wang Ziteng has been impeached, Jia Yucun's self-protection is in question.
How can I still be in the mood to pay attention to his request?
This is very natural, like a stone sinking into the sea.
No more news.
Two months later, Sun Shaozu waited and waited, but there was no movement.
During this period, I couldn't help but come here several times.
Jia She had no choice but to ask people to ask Jia Yucun again.
But he was pushed back every time.
Only then did he realize that this matter was probably going to go wrong.
But the money has already been obtained, so why should it be returned?
Besides, in two months, that little money has been almost spent.
Jia She simply pretended to be stupid and asked Sun Shaozu to go back and wait for the letter.
In the hope that Jia Yucun can survive this period and then help Sun Shaozu fulfill his vacancy.
Unfortunately, Sun Shaozu is not stupid either.
After making inquiries, he roughly guessed the problem.
At the same time, I also knew from Jia She's attitude that he might not get the money back.
So he simply went to the official media and came up with the idea of Jia's girl.
Since I don’t want the money back, I might as well get a wife back.
It doesn’t count as a loss.
What's more, after marrying the Jia family, it's not easy to get a real shortage?
Even if Wang Ziteng is about to fall, there is still the great Buddha of the virtuous concubine.
If the prince becomes the prince in the future, he will become the supreme emperor.
Maybe you can even get a royal relative.
Jia She is a bachelor, so he definitely doesn't have money, but it can be discussed if he wants a concubine.
Thinking about it again, it just so happens that it’s time to welcome spring.
So, after Sun Shaozu pestered him three or five times.
He went to the inner house and talked about the matter with Jia Mu.
Although Jia Mu was not very willing, she thought that her children had their own destiny.
Moreover, the marriage of children is also the order of their parents.
If Jia She doesn't care about welcoming the spring, she will worry about it and help find a good one.
But since her biological father has made his own decision, why should she get involved?
After pondering for a long time, he only said three words: "I know."
With his mother's permission, Jia She went back to make plans.
I plan to use this to give my future uncle a fortune.
Jia Mu didn't say much, but all the maids in her house heard about it.
The news quickly spread throughout the back house.
No, even Yingchun, who is so quiet, has heard about it now.
Tanchun handles the affairs of the government on weekdays and is more informed.
Naturally, I already knew about this from my servants.
But when she was worried about how to talk to her second sister, she came to her door.
"Since the eldest master wants to arrange a marriage for you, how can you, a daughter of a family, handle it?"
In this era, children have no say, not even Jia Lian can make the decision on his own marriage.
How much more to welcome a concubine?
"Originally, I thought that as long as I survived until I left the cabinet, the hard days would be over."
After hearing Tanchun's words, Yingchun suddenly looked miserable and said:
"But now that I heard that my master was going to arrange this marriage for me, my heart felt like I had been stabbed by a knife."
She took Tanchun's hand and held it tightly.
It was so tight that the joints turned white, so tight that even Tanchun felt pain.
"Tan girl, you may not believe it."
Having said this, Yingchun took a deep breath before saying with a sad and angry look:
"I'm not willing to give in!"
These four words seem to exhaust all the energy to welcome the spring.
After saying that, she slowly let go of her hand.
The whole person felt like a deflated rubber ball.
He just murmured in his mouth and said:
"Ordinarily, I have been submissive for more than ten years, and I have long been used to submissiveness. But now for some reason, my unwillingness jumped out at this moment."
With that shadow in my heart, I can no longer tolerate anyone else.
Tanchun frowned when he heard this, and then whispered:
"Second sister, don't say such nonsense. What will happen if someone hears it?"
How can a boudoir daughter speak out about her marriage?
This is the rule of this era.
If anyone heard it, they would only say that the girl in Jia's family was restless.
When Yingchun heard this, his eyes became a little surprised.
It seems to be saying that my sister doesn't understand me.
She straightened up slightly and said anxiously:
"How can my sister believe that what I say is true? I don't want to marry anyone named Sun. I just want to stay in the garden, serve the old lady, my wife, and be with my sisters!"
This statement sounds normal, but in fact only the first half is true.
If there is no one in my heart, why would I feel reluctant to leave in the Spring Festival?
In the Grand View Garden, she had always been honest and dull, refusing to say a single word.
You don’t say much, so how can you show any real feelings?
If there are any feelings, they are only good with Tanchun.
"Sisters will get married sooner or later, so who can stay in their parents' family all their lives?"
After hearing this, Tanchun gave another piece of advice and said:
"We, as juniors, will not talk about the character of the eldest master, but the husband he found for his second sister is also a son of a noble family, and he has held an official position."
When Yingchun heard her words, she immediately said anxiously:
"Baoyu said that he had seen him too, and said that the man had evil deeds and bad appearance, and was not easy to deal with."
This Sun Shaozu was born with a tall appearance, a strong physique, and was skilled in bow and horse, and could adapt to various social situations.
Anyone who sees it will say: What a man!
Except Jia Zheng and Baoyu.
Both of them were used to being from scholarly families, so they thought this man in the army was not worthy of them.
After Baoyu came back, he found Yingchun and made a big show of it.
Originally, Yingchun had some other thoughts, but after hearing this, he couldn't hold it in any longer.
Only then did he come to Tanchun to cry and complain.
"How can we believe Baoyu's words? Besides, if what he says is okay, what does it matter no matter how good or evil he says?"
When Baoyu was mentioned, Tanchun showed disdain and said:
"After all, he didn't dare to say anything in front of the great master. Saying good things and bad things is just talking behind his back."
Suddenly she thought of something again and added:
"By the way, I heard that I tried to persuade the eldest master, but the eldest master didn't listen. So far, the second sister should not think too much about it."
Jia Zheng actually gave him advice twice.
Not only did he look down on military men like Sun Shaozu, he also criticized the ancestors of the Sun family.
I just feel that the Sun family was trying to cling to each other rather than actually making friends.
Now Sun Shaozu's purpose is obviously impure.
Helpless, Jia She insisted on going his own way and was planning to knock out more money.
Who is willing to listen to Jia Zheng's pedantic words?
"If it had been before, I might have refrained from saying anything and just closed my eyes and got married."
As soon as Yingchun heard Jia Zheng's advice, it was no use, and his face suddenly became sad.
As he spoke, he turned around and turned into a miserable expression, saying:
"But now, I just don't want to give in!"
Tan Chun was a little moved by his unwillingness to welcome the spring.
"Second sister...you..."
After all, Tanchun couldn't bear to persuade her any more.
Seeing that Tanchun no longer tried to persuade her, Yingchun asked quickly:
"Tan girl, I know you always have the most ideas. Please help me think about it, how can I avoid getting married?"
Tanchun pondered for a moment and then said:
"When I was handling the affairs of the government, I heard that the eldest master had used Mr. Sun's money. Now that he couldn't get anything done and didn't want to return it to him, I had to prepare to agree to the other party's marriage proposal."
As soon as these words came out, Yingchun's face suddenly turned pale.
It involves money and power transactions, and she is just a filler.
Under such circumstances, if you really get married.
How can I stay in my husband's house?
She has a soft temper to begin with, if there is any leverage in the opponent's hands again.
I'm afraid the days ahead will be even more difficult.
"If you can repay his money, Mr. Sun probably won't insist on marrying you."
After hearing Tanchun's words, Yingchun said anxiously:
"How much silver?"
Tanchun sighed and then said:
"Hey, I heard there are five thousand taels."
During this period, Sun Shaozu came to visit several times.
Although there was no quarrel, there was inevitably a shouting match twice.
The servants naturally spread the news.
"Hiss~!"
Upon hearing this number, Yingchun suddenly took a breath of air.
If the Jia family was at its peak, five thousand taels would be nothing.
Not to mention him, even the little girls in the house know the current difficulties of Jia's house.
Five thousand taels is no longer a small amount for the current Jia family.
Seeing the despair on Yingchun's face, Tanchun couldn't bear it and said:
"Actually, there is a way. I just don't know if you dare."
Hearing this, Yingchun quickly grabbed Tanchun's arm and said hurriedly:
"What can I do? Let's talk about it first."
Tanchun sighed and said:
"Or go to Brother Lian. After all, he is your brother. He can't help you. I can give you a few words."
"Either beg the old lady to return the money, then the lord will understand."
The two paths she mentioned are actually the same.
Tanchun handled the affairs of the government and knew to some extent that Jia Lian had private money.
Not to mention Jia Mu, how many people are concerned about her private property.
If these two people are willing to help, they only need to return the money.
At that time, Jia She might not be willing to marry Yingchun again in vain.
However, these two people may not be willing to pay this money.
"I……"
Yingchun hesitated.
She knows her weight...
Well, nothing.
On both sides, one is the brother and the other is the grandmother.
Even if she looks pitiful, she can probably still make three to five hundred taels.
But five thousand taels, I'm afraid...
When Tanchun saw her appearance, he knew she was in trouble.
Suddenly he thought of something and immediately smiled and said:
"Besides that, there is actually another way,"
When I heard this in the spring, my eyes lit up.
She once again ignited hope and looked at Tanchun expectantly.
"This method is to find Sister Bao."
Tanchun showed a smile and said:
"Both the Feng family and the Xue family are very rich. It's not a big deal to spend five thousand taels. It just so happens that you borrowed the money and used it to pay off the debt yourself."
Install the latest version. 】
As soon as these words came out, Yingchun's face suddenly turned red.
She stared at Tanchun and said with a look of embarrassment:
"I'm serious, and you still make fun of me!"
When Tanchun saw this, he glanced sideways at her and said:
"What I said is serious. You really want to go to the Feng family. Isn't this an opportunity?"
When Yingchun heard the words, he suddenly stuttered.
"I...I...I...when did I say I was going to the Feng family? I just don't want to be sold to a soldier!"
"Ah!"
Tanchun sneered and said indifferently:
"Then you continue to be stubborn and wait for the arrangements made by the great master."
With that said, he stood up and wanted to leave.
"No, no, no!"
I didn’t even think about welcoming the spring, this is Qiu Shuangzhai.
Where can Tanchun go?
She was confused for a moment, and quickly stepped forward to hold Tanchun down, gritting her teeth and asking:
"Just tell me what I should do?"
"Pfft!"
When Tanchun saw her appearance, he couldn't help laughing and said:
"Sister Bao is a soft-hearted person. As long as you tell your true feelings, she will definitely help you."
Telling the truth directly refers to telling Baochai the matter.
In fact, she also asked Yingchun to tell her about her secret crush on Feng Yibo.
"How do I say that?"
When Yingchun heard this, he immediately looked embarrassed.
At this time, she was no longer as unwilling as before, but returned to her usual self.
I saw Yingchun's face looked cowardly, and she said in a hopeful tone:
"I can't...I can't say I want to go to her house, right?"
