Xing Xiuyan returned to the yard of East Road to see her parents. Xing Zhong and his wife lived in the west side of East Road to sit down and hug Xia. This was the first place where Jia Cong lived before. The scenery was quiet, but it was snowing, and the sound of birds could not be heard.

"The north is much colder than the south. Not to mention the distance between several provinces, the same orange tree, on the south bank of the Huai River and the north bank of the Huai River, is different. My daughter needs to add more clothes, so don't make people laugh at us." Xing Zhong was wearing a foreign uniform and was generous when he had money. If he had no money, he might be in the same circle with Jia Huan, Wang Ren and others.

The Xing family also bought a maid who was appointed. Xing's mother asked them to add coal and see her daughter's warm and water-like temperament: "Xiuyan, we are right. We originally planned to wait for your aunt to agree before letting you hand it over to him. Now that you have argued like this, we will obey you. It's really hard to live a poor life. After passing this village, there will be no store. I will add a maid to you tomorrow."

Xing Xiuyan only looked down at the cotton skirt: "Mom, don't be arrogant, so as to avoid others' discussions. Besides, it's decent. No matter how beautiful you dress, no one will look at it."

Xing's mother only thought that her daughter was weird. When she went out, Xing Zhong couldn't make up her mind: "Why do you think the Xue family is good? Or Cong'er is good?"

"We went to Beijing together for Xue Ke's house, and it seems that we are not short of money." Xing's mother calculated.

"What do you mean is a good wife? Now the Xue family and our family have some wealth, and they are of equal status..."

"Now is not the same as before, and we cannot generalize it." Xing's mother calculated: "The Xue family was rich, had a good harvest and snow, and the pearls were as good as earth and gold as iron. How powerful is the four famous Jinling families. That's because they were recruiting the royal treasury and silver. Their money was not the royal treasury, but in the name of the royal merchants, without paying commercial taxes or customs duties, and the officials would not be difficult for the imperial merchants. In this way, business would naturally be rich."

"The times are different now. Wealth is only three generations. The Xue family has lost its reputation as a royal merchant. Even if there is tens of thousands of taels of gold, there will be a time when it is defeated. Will the Daibawang be admitted to the prison? My family will go to see it and take a look. How much money should I get in the bank of Xue Ke? The enemy will still have to claim compensation... Without the royal signs in Xue Ke, how can he go to business in all directions in the future? This is no longer possible..."

Xing Zhong felt it made sense: "Then it's just a little bitch of my sister. Now, how many of them don't want to have a lot of wives and concubines?"

"We have a weak woman and a little arrogant. The grandmother over there looks virtuous, but she doesn't see any girl who has sent Cong'er... No matter how much money she has, she is not as powerful as the power. We are a girl from a private household and a private household. It is not illegal to be a concubine. Besides, your sister is not reliable except Cong'er, and that second master Lian is not reliable. In the past few months, it can be achieved." Xing's mother said, a little sad.

"But we are just such a daughter." Xing Zhong reluctant to leave.

"So what? Cong'er's character is still good, and she can take care of her wives and concubines. Although her concubine is humble, she will not be too sad if she is a good master. You and I also have a place to rely on. In previous years, they were very close to each other. I think my daughter is not unwilling to accept her identity as a concubine for the time being."

...

Xing Xiuyan came out of Baoxia calmly, and part of Jia She Garden was transformed into a Grand View Garden, so the East Road and Grand View Garden were connected, but if the door was not opened here, she had to go out from the Heiyou Gate, go around half a circle, and go out to the hall to meet the three of Wang Ren, Jia Huan, and Wang Shanbao's family.

Wang Ren and Jia Huan turned west with a smile while walking, and went to the middle road. Xing Xiuyan pretended not to see them, "Sister Wang, what's wrong?"

"Oh, Miss Xing, this matter is lively. My family is preparing for the New Year. My man and the Zhou family in the second house each took the land rent and the house land silver came in. We will handle it ourselves. The second house paid their bank deposits and Wu Dengxin's family. It is said that the second wife ordered Mr. Cong's grandmother to return the bank to the bank deposit. Mr. Cong took people to the account."

Wang Shanbao's family was gloating. Speaking of which, Mrs. Xing's house was not in line with Mrs. Wang's house, Zhou Rui's family. The two sisters-in-law above had grudges, and the same was true for their houses. When the Grand View Garden was searched in the Red Chamber, Zhou Rui's family refused to give in and humiliated Wang Shanbao's family and lost all their face.

"Oh, I'm going back to the garden, Sister Wang is walking slowly." Xing Xiuyan didn't want to ask these things.

The two of them were on the same road. It was obvious that this was a gust of wind. Many people knew about it all at once. When they arrived at the hall outside the middle road account room, Xing Xiuyan hesitated and returned to the Grand View Garden. Aunt Zhao from the East Courtyard was fond of gossip and went to see it together with Wang Shanbao's family.

After entering the hall, there were dozens of girls, wives, mother-in-laws, servants, and men outside the account door, all of whom were in charge. Zhou Rui and Lin Zhixiao were paying money to the account door, and they were here to pay the money.

Lin Zhixiao's wife was Wang Xifeng's goddaughter. Wang Xifeng was hit back then, and Lin Zhixiao was almost withdrawn. However, since he was in charge of the houses and fields of the east and west mansions, the East Mansion was later confiscated and the West Mansion was single. His wife sent his daughter to Jia Cong's house. As soon as Mrs. Xing came forward, she was saved.

In the account lobby, Jia Cong sat in the main seat without hesitation, expressionless and sat steadily, attracting gazes and whispers from time to time.

The people brought by Jia Cong include Sun Fu, Long Aotian, Jia Qiang, Jia Yun, Jia Rui, and Duo Huo Chuang. Jia Rui also flattered Jia Cong and was about to hold his thighs. If it weren't for Jia Cong's butterfly effect, he would have received a lunch box in the original work.

In addition, there were Pan Youan and others, as well as the servants Jia Qiang later, and there were a total of more than a dozen big men.

But Jia Cong was the only one sitting, including the clan leader Jia Qiang, who had to stand aside. Who said that he was of low generation?

Jia Cong's status has long been different from the past. Judging from his attitude, no one knows what he is going to do.

Wu Dengxin winked at his wife, and Wu Dengxin's family responded: "Is Mr. Cong here to receive the monthly bill? But the monthly bill of Mr. Cong's room is transferred from the big house and will not return here. I heard that the master and the big wife don't have to send it to Mr. Cong's monthly bill. Everything is done by Mr. Cong, I don't know..."

"Yes." Jia Cong said indifferently: "I don't understand why! Although the two houses in the big house are family, their monthly periods have long been separated. At that time, Sister Lian's housekeeper could not manage the people in the big house, but now my son, who worked hard to manage the money he got from working at night, would have to get the second house to manage! My house has given some supplements to each house, and even Aunt Zhao's grandmother, she doesn't need her share! Now someone doesn't want me to live! Don't you know?"

The inside and outside the hall suddenly became quiet. Wu Dengxin's family was not unaware of the news issued by Mrs. Wang, but she had suffered from Jia Tanchun's losses. She despised Jia Tanchun as a foul girl. She was young and ignorant. She was so embarrassed by Tanchun's counterattack that she was so disappointed. What's more, Jia Cong had seen the emperor's official, and the etiquette and teachings of entering the palace were different. Therefore, Jia Cong seemed to be a bit powerful. How could she be willing to be the first bird?

Zhou Rui's sneered, and pushed Wu Dengxin's family back, saying, "Master Cong, this family was made by the second wife, and the old lady ordered it. Now the mansion is not enough to make ends meet, and it is difficult to make money. There is nothing wrong with the second wife's order, right? Besides, the grandmother in Master Cong's room has agreed."

"Okay, it's appropriate, it's appropriate." Jia Cong clapped his palms, and Sun Fu immediately ordered the servant to carry out two boxes of silver, one box of 250 taels, a total of 500 taels. It is very profitable to criticize Shiwen, not to mention Jia Cong is famous, which is the same as modern examination materials. In October, Jia Cong's pure dividends were 500 taels, and of course there was also profit from other books.

When Long Aotian opened the box, two boxes of broken silver were shining in the sun. These broken silvers had never been recast. Many people looked at each other. Is Mr. Cong surrendering?

Zhou Rui family smiled at the corner of his lips, and his pride could not hide his pride. He still dared not disobey the etiquette and filial piety and clan justice!

"This is the December income. Are you sure you will return to the public?" Jia Cong had a harmless face and did not call her Sister Zhou at all.

"Yes, this is the wife's order." Zhou Rui's family refused to give in, and she didn't believe that Jia Cong dared to resist.

"Okay! Very good!" Jia Cong said lightly: "Sun Fu, use these silver to smash it hard! I will take responsibility for it if someone dies!"

Jia Qiang wanted to persuade him, but Duohuichong and others had already pressed down on Zhou Rui's family. Sun Fu brought people up and grabbed the silver and smashed it hard on Zhou Rui's family. Zhou Rui's family hugged their heads and protected their faces, cursing resentfully: "I want to go back to the wife! I want to go back to the old lady!"

Jia Cong turned a blind eye, stood up and came out of the hall, and said loudly to everyone, "Even if I want to return to the master, my money should be returned to the clan leader, and I will give it to the clan leader to distribute it. Why do you listen to the second wife? Others call you Sister Zhou, who respects the wife, but your identity is still a slave! Very good! If you want, give all these money to you! Enjoy it well! Have a good New Year! Come and get it if you don't have enough food! I, Jia Cong, will accompany you to the end!"

Jia Tanchun dares to beat Wang Shanbao's family, why doesn't Jia Cong dare? Can't beat you Mrs. Wang, can't I clean up your house? It's a rebellion!

The whole hall was silent, including Aunt Zhao, who loved to fight, opened her mouth wide. Seeing the Zhou Rui family's bruises and dying, Zhou Rui did not dare to resist. Zhou Rui's family could not curse, but only the eyes were dragged out with resentful eyes. Everyone looked at Jia Cong in fear. Who would have thought that Jia Cong was so cruel! He acted fiercely! You insert me with a needle, and I will give you a blow!

Zhou Rui's family represents Mrs. Wang's face. Now it's not a slap Mrs. Wang in the face, but a stomp!

Next, I have something to see!

Jia Cong turned a blind eye to this and looked at it: "Go to the gate to see if the Sima commander of the Ministry of Revenue has arrived? The national law is above. Today I will tell you clearly that if the gentry is spread out and the gentry will pay the grain together. The four or five hundred acres of land collected in my name must also be paid taxes! If loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved at the same time, I, Jia Cong, are only loyal first and then filial! If you don't pay the tax, get out!"

Wu Dengxin and others were completely stunned, and this involved Jia She again. Wang Shanbao's face looked ugly.
Chapter completed!
