Lin Daiyu took Sister Feng and Baochai to the room where Jia Rong lived. Wang Xifeng was a little satisfied when she saw that the place was quite clean and there were no people inside or outside.

"It's a good place for him." Sister Feng sneered. Although this mansion is far less elegant than Ningguo Mansion, the courtyard inside is quite stylish. The spring water flows down from the front of the house, and there are strange rocks, rockeries, flowers and green trees on the left and right.

, it can be regarded as another kind of beautiful scenery.

"This was originally the master's resting place. Recently, the master's health has improved, and he has freed up space for Brother Rong to live in." Zijuan chuckled and explained: "The mansion also planned to arrange for Brother Rong to be around him.

There were two maids waiting on me, but he sent me away. In such a situation, I feel comfortable living alone."

Xue Baochai laughed in her heart. Fortunately, Brother Rong sent away the maid who arranged for her, otherwise there would be a big show to watch today. She laughed and said, "My sister treats Brother Rong very well."

Lin Daiyu replied: "When I was in Shenjing in the past, Brother Rong and his wife treated me very well. Now that he is a guest, I can't do anything wrong to him. With his words, when he returns to Shenjing, he won't be able to criticize the Lin family for not treating guests well.

"

Several people entered the front hall, which was extremely spacious and empty. Most of the room was made of bamboo silk utensils, which was not at all in the northern style. Chunxian went to the room first to report, and not long after, Brother Rong came to the front hall.

I saw that Sister Feng's face was quite cold, while Baochai's face was still smiling as usual.

Brother Rong turned his eyes to the left, showing a look of surprise, and said with a smile: "Why are my aunts and uncles coming to Yangzhou? They are planning to wait until they recover from their injuries and go to Jinling to visit the two houses."

Wang Xifeng had already seen Brother Rong's ability to tell lies, and she smiled on her face, with a slight sneer. "It seems that our nephew from the Jia family still knows some etiquette. Even though he ordered me to go out to work, he didn't forget it."

we."

Why is this girl so angry for no reason?

Scratching your head!

Brother Rong greeted: "Please sit down, please sit down, let's sit and chat. Miss Xueyan, please send someone to bring some tea."

"No need, since Brother Rong is fine, we won't disturb your rest." Wang Xifeng turned around without mercy and left, saying: "Brother Rong, you should continue to lie down. If you are sick, you will not be injured for a few seconds."

The day will be fine."

Xue Baochai also followed up and said: "Sister Feng is absolutely right. Although she looks fine on the outside, she doesn't know the situation on the inside. Brother Rong, please rest for a few more days to avoid getting the root of the disease."

Well, there is something wrong with these two ladies today.

Not to be messed with.

He looked at the room and saw that Lin Daiyu was also there. She had some words that were difficult to say, and said sarcastically: "Listen to what my aunts and aunts say, I won't go anywhere these days. It's better to stay in the room with me."

Wang Xifeng left behind a soft hum and went to the garden with Daiyu.

Jia Rong in the room sighed. Sister Feng came over suddenly because she heard the news that she had fallen into the water. Her expression must be because she blamed him for not sending the news to Jinling.

Trouble this time!

Jia Lian was still living in the Lin family. As expected, after a while, Jia Lian, who had just gotten off the boat, heard the news from the Lin family, and his legs and feet almost fell to the ground.

Why did this evil star come here?

He was traveling among the paintings in Yangzhou these days, and he was definitely not thinking about Sichuan. He was so happy and carefree. So much so that even though Jia Lian knew that Wang Xifeng had returned to Jinling, he didn't even think about going to Jinling.

Boat painting was more enjoyable than the Wanhua Tower in Shenjing, so why would he want to seek bad luck from Wang Xifeng? So when he heard that Sister Feng had arrived at the Lin Mansion, he was almost frightened.

"The good times are over!"

Jia Lian sighed with emotion. He was even more sad that he had been suppressed by a fierce woman for several years, and now he came to Yangzhou and learned about the joys of men. The more he thought about it, the more pathetic he felt, and he encouraged himself in his heart.

There is no one in Yangzhou to support her, so can she continue to be powerful?

When the prostitute behind her heard this, she seemed to be afraid that she would lose such a wealthy and beautiful customer, and her face was unhappy. Gonghuo said: "What are you afraid of, second master? Even we who are prostitutes know how to marry and obey."

According to my husband’s principles, is it possible that the daughter-in-law of the second master’s family can rebel against God?”

Jia Lian's face heated up and he hummed: "In the past, everyone in the family was bribed by her in Shenjing. Now in Yangzhou, are you still afraid of her? I will treat her well when I go back today, and I will come to see you tomorrow to travel to Yangzhou with me."

.”

The prostitute smiled sweetly and said: "Second Master, go back and treat her well, let her know who is the boss of the family. The slave family will be on the boat early tomorrow morning waiting for Second Master to come over."

"Okay!" Mr. Lian chuckled, and his mind seemed to be back in the boat again. The feeling was enough for him to recall endlessly.

Second Master Lian led several of his followers and rushed towards the Lin Mansion in the rain. Although he had just said a big talk, he felt very uncertain. The closer he got to the Lin Mansion, the more panicked he became. I cheered him up many times in my heart, today

The son, Wang Xifeng, must not give himself face in front of his relatives, but must show his majesty as the head of the family.

After Jia Lian left, someone on the riverbank immediately approached the prostitute in the boat and asked her. Not hearing the news they wanted, someone said: "If I had known that this guy was a coward, I should have kidnapped Lin Ruhai and blackmailed her into handing over the book."

The prostitute complained bitterly: "We have done what we should do and said what we should say. I don't know if Jia Lian is pretending to be stupid, or he really hasn't heard Lin Ruhai mention it. He doesn't know anything about the Salt Transportation Department.

"

Someone scolded, "If I had known this, I should have found an opportunity to kill Lin Ruhai last year, which would have saved a lot of trouble. Now the salt patrol censor has been hiding in the house, and there is no chance for discussion."

"How to discuss? Last year, Lin Ruhai suddenly fell ill, and he always felt that something was wrong. None of the officials and businessmen believed it. Later, people from Shenjing came, and we had no room for negotiation. We could only think about it.

How to destroy the ledger calculated by Lin Ruhai."

Another person said: "No one can calculate what happened last year. The people above were only hindsight. If it weren't for the guard who led the people to control the Salt Transportation Department, I'm afraid everyone would still be in the dark. Damn it, now it's harmed."

Those of us who work don’t get much money, so we still have to deal with this mess for them.”

"Stop complaining. Which of the chief merchants above doesn't owe the palace hundreds of thousands of taels of silver? Of course they feel relieved. At most, they can pay off all their property. Those of us who do things, no one can save their heads after the incident.

." The man sighed and said, "Go and send the message to the boss. I can't get the account book, and the Lin family won't come out to see how to calculate it."

"I asked you to tie up that little girl yesterday, but you didn't want to move. Are you worried now?" The prostitute in the boat laughed, "We told you the news early in the morning, that girl is the only daughter of the Lin family.

With her in hand, aren't you afraid of Lin Ruhai giving in?"

With a snap, someone slapped the prostitute, "Why do you, a bitch like you, need to talk so much about my uncle's affairs?"

One person echoed: "What you say is not bad, bitch. If we had taken action yesterday, there might still be some hope."

"Fucking hope. Do you know who was with the Lin family's daughter yesterday? He was going to have an accident, and none of us would survive. Do you really think that no one was guarding them yesterday? The Guards Office, Jinyi Division, and Sanhe Camp all sent out

Someone is protecting him."

"Who is that person?"

"Just a descendant of the fallen Duke of Shenjing."

"That……"

The leader glared at them and hummed: "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. As long as you know, even our boss must be careful to keep him safe. Don't criticize this person in the future, otherwise don't talk about your and my head."

, even our whole family will suffer."

"Could it be a saint..."

The speaker quickly shut up when he saw the boss's eyes. After stringing together the information about the Lin family's relatives in Shenjing and the children of the Duke of Guo, he immediately understood.

I didn't dare to say another word, I just silently recited in my heart to apologize for my evil thoughts just now: "A loving mother without birth, her kindness is boundless."

Naturally, Jia Lian had no idea what happened in Huafang.

By the time he returned to the Lin Mansion, a banquet had begun to entertain Wang Xifeng, Xue Pan, Xue Baochai and their entourage.

"Second Brother Lian is back." Xue Pan laughed, winked and whispered in front of him: "If Second Brother doesn't come, Sister Feng will teach you a lesson today."

Jia Lian snorted and asked, "Why are you here too? Has the procurement in Jiangnan Province been completed?"

Xue Pan said: "My sister at home said she wanted to come to Yangzhou, but I couldn't compete with her, and I was afraid of something happening on the way. So I escorted her all the way here, so I could come and see Brother Lian."

Jia Lian asked curiously: "Why did my sister suddenly want to come to Yangzhou? And why did you drag her here?"

Xue Pan said: "I heard that Brother Rong was in trouble, so I thought something big had happened. The second brother also knew that our family and Ningguo Mansion were also engaged in the cement business. My sister was afraid that Brother Rong would make a mistake and cause the business between the two companies to go wrong.

problem, so I am determined to come."

Is this really the case?

Jia Lian frowned, wondering why his words were not convincing at all. He glanced left and right, but did not see Brother Rong and the others. He was also worried about Xue Baochai in his heart, and said: "My sister is already in her haircut years and she is still unmarried. Let her

You should stay away from Brother Rong. If something happens between the two of you, how can the girl get married in the future? Brother Rong is a married man after all, so don’t let them see each other often."

Although Xue Pan was a fool, he could still understand the meaning of Jia Lian's words. He loved his sister the most, so he immediately pulled a face and said: "You have such good intentions, so you should think about how to talk to your wife today. My family

How could you, a girl like a fairy, cause such a thing? If you say such things in the future, I will definitely fall out with you."

When Jia Lian thought of Wang Xifeng, he felt helpless again. He had been inflated a few times, but now he was deflated again. Seeing Xue Pan's stern face, he took his hand and said, "It's my brother who has a bad mouth. Don't blame me. Of course, my sister won't."

There are no bad intentions, but when men and women get close, they will inevitably be gossiped about. And Brother Rong is not a relative in the same house. We have been together for a long time after being separated by several generations..."

"Brother Rong is not that kind of person."

Brother is gone."

Jia Lian pouted. Why didn't Xue Pan believe it? Alas, she was doing it for his own good. He thought for a while in his heart that he also knew that Wang Xifeng had taken her own dowry to participate in the cement matter. Could it be that she was also here for the cement kiln matter?

?

But he felt that the reason for the two girls to go to Yangzhou was a little untenable. He didn't want to think about the bad side. What he just said to Xue Pan was actually said to himself.

Wang Xifeng and Jia Rong got too close. When he was still in the house, Wang Xifeng and Jia Rong cared about each other a little too much.

It was not that he had no doubts at the beginning, but it was only later that the rumors about Jia Rong and Wang Xifeng disappeared in the two houses, and his doubts were slightly dispelled. But... they have been away from Shenjing for several months, will they cause any trouble again?

Jia Lian felt unsure.

They also thought that with Ping'er by Wang Xifeng's side, they would not dare to cross the thunder pool.
