When singing and dancing in the south of the Yangtze River were at peace, the winter solstice of Jiaxu in the 11th year of Yongle, the Kitchen God, Laba and New Year's Eve also passed in Rongguo Mansion lively and festively. After many years of entering the palace, Jia Yuanchun, who was chosen as the Minister of Fengzao Palace, was named the Minister of Fengzao Palace and was awarded the title of Concubine Xiande, had long been passed back to the Jia Mansion, and the construction of the Grand View Garden has been started for many days.

...

The green saut cabinet on Rongguofu West Road, Lin Daiyu's boudoir was neat and elegant. She lay leisurely on the bed, holding a copy of "The Scholars" in her left hand, and looked at it carefully. Jia Baoyu came over to laugh, Zijuan served tea, Lin Daiyu shook her head and sighed: "Look at this Yan Jiansheng's family, who was bullied by the big house for life, because he was just a Jiansheng and had no fame and fortune, and he was sincere to the wife of the sausage. There was also an aunt named Zhao, but they didn't make trouble..."

Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu are very secretive about Aunt Zhao and are guarded against him. Once, Aunt Zhao came in and took a look. Daiyu hurriedly winked at Baoyu... The reason is that Aunt Zhao loves to make trouble and is a good thing for Mrs. Wang tolerate her strengths and also her disadvantages of being hated. Maybe she whispers to Jia Zheng. Lin Daiyu's reputation will be a big deal for life? In addition, Aunt Zhao also borrowed a skirt from Xue Yan, and Xue Yan refused to let Miss Lin take care of her. According to Aunt Zhao's temperament, she would definitely say bad things about Lin Daiyu. After all, Aunt Zhao's IQ is pitiful. When any woman instigated and encouraged her, she believed it.

Jia Baoyu sat on the ring chair, pinched the folding fan in his hand, and said in a depressed manner: "It's so fun for Brother Lian and Brother Cong to go to Jiangnan. Brother Cong stayed and did not return home, so he was not restricted by the family. I think about it, it's much happier than me..."

"He has fame and fortune, and he does not need to be guided by himself. If you have the care of the mansion, you can go out even if you want to go out, but..." Lin Daiyu was slowly and long and did not respond to the words, her eyes were as clear as a lake and a pool of water.

"My sister is weird when she comes back from Yangzhou. It's okay to read his books. Do you want to compare me with him in front of me? How good is he? Why am I not good? To talk about old love, you and me have been playing together for several years. Where is Brother Cong? Sister Feng was pulled down by her..." Jia Baoyu turned his head and snorted coldly. The smell of old vinegar in Shanxi was very strong.

Lin Daiyu suddenly put down the book with the Shanhai Bookstore business name printed on it, lay down and stood up, sneering: "Master Bao Er is here to throw a temper at me. Which sentence should I say you are bad? Which sentence would I praise him and criticize you?"

"If you don't say it, that's the same thing. Our mansion failed and fell into the sand. After all, he was a current student from Wanping County School. You Gong, the Imperial College Supervisor. At home, he wanted to enter the genealogy. He was outside. He wanted to enter the county annals! He was a traitor who enslaved people! He sought fame and gained fame! He deceived the world and stole the reputation!" Jia Baoyu's face turned red and he stood up.

"They are lucky, but you are not lucky? The supply in the mansion is not from Zhuangtun? The rewards from the court are not from taxes? What happened to him and Sister Feng? What did they do? You know... why should you defend your sister..." Lin Daiyu calmed down and strangely didn't want to behave her.

"Hmph!" Jia Baoyu left with his sleeves, and suddenly felt that the world was vast and there was no soulmate. "I don't want to be named Marquis of Wanhu, I hope to know Han Jingzhou at all." Where is my Han Jingzhou!

"Why did you make a fuss again?" Zijuan said worriedly.

“Not once or twice.”

Zijuan pondered repeatedly and pondered: "Girl, Mr. Cong, and Mr. Lian held a funeral for Mr. Lin. The serious wife, grandma, and wife, even if they committed seven mistakes, there were three mistakes. One of them, those who had funerals for their parents-in-law did not go. Mr. Cong was not a girl, and there was such a relationship. It was understandable that the girl spoke for him. Mr. Bao was mixed at home, and he had to be careful and considerate. Few people compared him. He remembered anything about the girl, but he could not see the future. Mr. Cong was mixed at home, with a bright future. His wife, wouldn't he just hoped for an imperial decree, a phoenix crown and a robe. He could earn it, but he was an official's inner examination and required purity. If he was single, he could not... There were gains and losses, and I couldn't make up my mind..."

"What are you talking nonsense about, girl? Besides, I'll chase you away with the old lady." Lin Daiyu was angry.

Zijuan didn't beg for mercy to sue her. She was used to her master's quarrels, so she just said that she could still sleep together at night. Miss Bao and Ying'er could not. The master and servant were clear, and she said, "Miss, take the medicine."

Lin Daiyu turned sideways inward and stopped talking. Although Zijuan's worries also had something to do for Zijuan herself, there were also aspects to consider her. The girl rewarded by the old lady was smart and thoughtful, and Xueyan could not compare to. Lin Daiyu's tears fell silently on her cheeks. Now she was dependent on others, who would make the decision? She herself couldn't explain her feelings about Jia Cong. She thought he was reliable in Yangzhou, and she felt that he respected her in Suzhou. In her heart, she was not as unbearable as Baoyu thought. However, if she continued to think deeply, she felt that she had let go of Baoyu... It was really complicated and it was difficult to make a decision!

"I give you a method to resolve doubts, and you don't need to divine tortoise or divination. You have to take three days to test jade, and you have to wait for seven years to identify the materials... but seven years have arrived, who will decide for me?"

...

Jia Zheng ignored the civil affairs, and the construction of the Grand View Garden was formulated by Prime Minister Yamaziye, Zhan Guang, Cheng Rixing, Hu Silai and others arranged and dispatched, and Jia Yun, Jia Lian, Lai Da, Lai Sheng, Wu Xindeng, Lin Zhixiao and other supervisors.

Jia Qiang arranged Jia Yun in, and Lin Zhixiao came in again because of Lin Hongyu's relationship and was not very loyal to Wang Xifeng.

"Demolition of the walls connected to the Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion, bringing the living water from Fangyuan over, and merged into the Dongda Courtyard and the Master's Garden. It's wonderful." Jia Lian praised it and left the north gate on the central axis of the Rongguo Mansion. This north gate has now become the hanging flower gate of the garden.

The living water of Huifang Garden is the soul of the Grand View Garden. It flows from the northeast to the northwest, southwest, and then from the Yihong Courtyard in the southeast. It is all built according to Shanziye's drawings. Of course, it has not been completed at this time. The name of the Grand View Garden and the Yihong Courtyard has not yet been named.

"Brother Qiang went to Suzhou to buy an actor. He used the 30,000 yuan owed by the Zhen family in Jiangnan, and piled it up with dozens or millions of dollars. The imperial concubine will be satisfied and she also saved the emperor's decency..."

...

Jia Cong was in the private kingdom of Shengze, Wujiang. As the Jiaxu year passed, thousands of lights were lit in the Yihai year, Suzhou bridges, streets, and markets of lanterns were endless. The 150 acres of land had already been paid once.

Xiuyan and he visited the lake in the center of the field. A pond of fish was constantly passing by. Baotou and the cloth hired people to pour sheep manure into the pond. Xing Xiuyan covered her mouth and nose with a lever and said, "What a good pool of water! Why is it dirty!"

"You don't understand, what does grass carp eat? Grass carp eat grass, and sheep manure. What does silver carp eat? Silver carp eat grass carp's manure... So, sheep manure, grass carp, silver carp, is endless. Grass carp is afraid that the tail of silver carp is itchy, so it will avoid it and live in harmony..." Jia Cong looked at the farmhouse he built with satisfaction: "There are at least tens of thousands of taels of silver in a year, and you still dislike it?"

Xing Xiuyan smiled, and her eyes were blindly admiring, and she followed him to her other half of the poultry farm. The pigs included the big-eared pigs from Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Huai'an, Xuzhou, the small-eared pigs from Jiangnan, and the chickens were Sanhuang chickens, Liaoyang chickens, dwarf chickens, etc. She saw those people holding oil and picking the noodles into large pieces of fingertips, and some grind hard rice and sulfur into finely fed the chickens. The goose was locked in a brick and stone circle. She said, "What's the method?"

"The method of stacking chickens is easy to fat, and they will gain weight in five days." Jia Cong took her to see the cotton fields. The technology of mulberry fields is simple to say. The land in the middle is piled up, with manure channels on one side to nourish the roots, and the water channels on the other side to replenish water and heat up. Of course, the details are complicated. Xiuyan is literate, so he asked her to record it for easier management in the future.

...

After packing my luggage at night, Jiangnan Lantern Market started from the seventh day of the lunar month and continued until the sixteenth day of the year. It was like a city that never sleeps. Jia Cong said goodbye: "I will take a boat north to the capital city tomorrow, and I will start the autumn examination next year, and I will do my homework well. I will try Lianjie, maybe I will come back... You can also visit relatives."

Xing Xiuyan kept silent, stood and lowered her head. Her red lips were printed on the mouth of Jia Cong, who was sitting, and quietly said in his ear: "Don't you want to eat rouge?"
