Chapter 107 Chapter 170 Dispersing the Surplus Capital

It is said that when Jia Zheng entered the palace, he met all the adults of the Privy Council and all the princes.King Bei Jing said: "Today we sent you here to ask you something according to the order."Jia Zheng immediately knelt down.All the adults asked: "Do you know that your elder brother trafficked with foreign officials, bullied the weak, indulged his children in gambling, took over the wives and daughters of good people, and failed to kill them?"Jia Zheng replied: "Since the end of the term appointed by the Lord's envoy, the prisoner inspected the relief, went home at the end of last winter, and was sent to work by the Tangtang. Later, he was appointed to Jiangxi Liangdao. He returned to the capital and was still there The Ministry of Industry walks, not daring to be lazy day and night.When it came to housework, I didn't pay attention to it, so I was really confused.Failure to discipline your nephews is to live up to the grace of God.I just ask the Lord to punish me severely.It is said that the king of Beijing Jing played it in turn.

Not long after, the decree came out, and the King of Beijing stated: "The Lord pardoned the traffic officials because of the censor's participation in the performance, and bullied the weak by the strong."According to the censor, it was pointed out that Ping'an Prefecture communicated with each other, and Jia Amnesty took over the lawsuit.According to Yan Yu and Jia Amnesty, Ping'an Prefecture was originally related to in-laws and did not interfere with official affairs, and the censor could not tell the truth.Only the ancient fan of the stone nerd by relying on the situation is real, but it is a plaything, and it cannot be compared with the things of the good people.Although the stone nerd committed suicide, it was also caused by madness and stupidity, and it has something to do with the person who was strangled to death.Today, Jia amnesty will be sent to the station to serve as atonement.Jia Zhen, who participated in the investigation, forcibly took the wives and daughters of Liangmin as concubines, and refused to force them to death. She extracted the original case from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. It can be seen that the second sister You is actually Zhang Hua's unmarried wife. The elder sister's mother is willing to give Jia Zhen's younger brother as a concubine, which is not forcible.The third sister Zaiyou committed suicide and buried herself without reporting to the official. The third sister Chayou was originally Jia Zhen's wife and sister. Strangled to death.But as a hereditary employee, ignorant of the law, buried his life privately, he should have been severely punished. Nian Yi is a descendant of a hero, and he couldn't bear to add more crimes.Jia Rong is young and has nothing to do, so please forgive me.Jia Zhengshi has served abroad for many years, and the official is still diligent and cautious, so he was exonerated from the crime of improper governance of the family.When Jia Zheng heard this, he was so grateful that he couldn't kowtow, so he begged the prince to play his thanks.King Beijing said: You should kowtow to thank God, what else can you do?Jia Zhengdao: "Officers look up to the grace of God, do not commit serious crimes, and have their family properties returned. They are really ashamed. They are willing to hand over their ancestors to receive a lot of money, and buy their surplus property, and hand them over to officials."The King of Beijing said: The Lord is merciful, and he uses punishments with caution, and there is no difference in rewards and punishments.Now that you have received a great kindness and returned your property, why do you need to make such a fuss?The officials also said no.Jia Zheng thanked him for his kindness and kowtowed to the prince for coming out.Fearing that Jia Mu would be worried, she hurried back.

Men, women and men from all walks of life didn't know what good or bad news came to Jia Zheng, so they all went outside to inquire. When they saw Jia Zheng coming home, they were a little relieved and didn't dare to ask.I saw Jia Zheng hurriedly walked up to Jiamu, and told in detail about the forgiveness of Shengen.Although Jia's mother was relieved, it was just that the two careers were resigned, Jia Amnesty went to work in the station again, and Jia Zhen went to the sea again, so she couldn't help but feel sad again.Mrs. Xing and Youshi cried even more when they heard that.Jia Zheng said, "Don't worry, old lady."Although the eldest brother works for the station, he is also serving the country and will not suffer. As long as he does it properly, he can be reinstated.Zhen'er is young and deserves to contribute.If this is not the case, even the grandfather's Yu De will not be able to enjoy it for a long time.Say something reassuring.Jia Mu didn't like Jia Amnesty very much at first, but there was a layer of separation between Jia Zhen in the East Mansion.Only Mrs. Xing and Youshi wept bitterly.Mrs. Xing thought that the family property was gone, her husband was old and far away, and even though she had Lian'er under her knees, she always followed his second uncle, but now they all depended on the second uncle, and the couple even went along there.How can I be alone?The Nayou family was originally in charge of the Ningfu's family business, except for Jia Zhen, she was the only one who respected her, and she was in harmony with Jia Zhen and his wife.Now the crime is far away, all the family property is stolen, Yi goes to Rongfu, although the old lady loves her, she is finally under Yiren's family.They brought Kailuan and Peifeng with them, and Rong'er and his wife were unable to start a family and start a business.He thought again: the second and third younger sisters were all troubled by Lian's second uncle, but now they are safe and sound, and they are still married.How can we survive with only a few of us left?Thinking of this, I burst into tears.

Mother Jia couldn't bear it, so she asked Jia Zheng, "Your elder brother and Zhen'er have already settled the case. May they go home?"Rong'er has nothing to do with him, so she should be released.Jia Zheng said: "If there is a rule, the eldest brother cannot go home."I have entrusted someone to have a private affair, and asked our elder and nephew to go home so that we can buy luggage, and the yamen has already responded.Thinking about it, Rong'er came out with his grandfather and father.Just please rest assured that the old lady, the son will do it.Jia Mu said again, "I've been too old for a few years, and I never asked about family affairs."Now the entire Dongfu has been copied, needless to say that the house has entered the government.Your eldest brother's side and Lian'er's side have also been copied.Do you know how much we have left in the bank of the West Mansion and the land in the East Province?When the two of them got up, they had to give them a few thousand denarii.Jia Zheng had no choice but to hear Jia's mother's question, thinking to himself: If you explain it, you are afraid that the old lady will be anxious; if you don't explain it, let alone the future, what can you do now?After making up his mind, he replied, "If the old lady doesn't ask, my son won't dare to tell."Now that the old lady has asked about this, and now Lian'er is here, the son has checked yesterday: the money in the old treasury has long been empty, not only used up, but also a deficit outside.Now, if the elder brother's matter is not entrusted with money, although the Lord is gracious, I am afraid that the two fathers and sons will not be good, but there is no plan for this money.The land mu in the eastern province had already paid the rent for the year of the year, and it was impossible to transfer it for a while, so they had to use up all the clothes and jewelry that had not been touched by the grace of the saints, and gave it to the eldest brother and Zhen'er. .Things to live can only be re-planned.When Jia Mu heard this, she was so anxious that she burst into tears again, and said, "what's the matter, has our family reached such a field?"Although I didn't pass by, I remembered that Xiangri was ten times stronger than here, and it had been putting on airs for a few years, but nothing like this happened, it had already collapsed, and it would be over in a year or two.According to you, we won't be able to pay in a year or two?Jia Zhengdao: "If the two stipends do not move, there will still be some movement outside."Now that there is nothing to blame, who is willing to help?As I said that, I also burst into tears, thinking of my relatives, those who used us are now poor, and those who have not used us refuse to take care of them anymore.Yesterday my son didn't check carefully, he only looked at the family booklet, not to mention that the money at the top was nothing, and the people at the bottom couldn't afford much.

Jia Mu was worrying when she saw Jia Amnesty, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong come in to greet Jia Mu.Seeing this, Jia Mu took Jia Amnesty with one hand and Jia Zhen with the other, and burst into tears.The two of them were ashamed, and when they saw Mother Jia crying, they both knelt on the ground and cried, saying: "The children and grandchildren will not grow up, and the meritorious service of the ancestors will be lost, and the tired old lady will be sad. The children and grandchildren will die without a place to die!"Seeing this scene, the whole room burst into tears again.Jia Zheng had no choice but to persuade him: first, we must plan for the use of the two of them.You can only live at home for a day or two, and people will not follow you later.The old lady said with sorrow and tears: "You two, go talk to your daughters-in-law separately."He also told Jia Zheng: "This matter can't be waited for a long time. If I want to move it outside, I'm afraid it won't work. What if I miss the imperial limit at that time?"I had no choice but to plan for you.Even if the house is so messy, it is not common practice.As he spoke, he asked Yuanyang to give orders.Here Jia Amnesty waited out, and wept with Jia Zheng for a while, unavoidably repented after being willful in the past, and talked about separation for a while, and each went to mourn with his daughter-in-law.Jia She is old, so she can't let go; only Jia Zhen and Youshi can't bear to be separated!Jia Lian and Jia Rong could only hold their father and cry.Although it is less than the military flow, it is life and death.This is also the case, so everyone has to harden their hearts and go over.

However, it is said that Jia's mother named Xing, and Mrs. Wang's second wife, together with the mandarin ducks, unpacked the cages and took out all the things they had accumulated as daughter-in-laws until now. Pay Jia She three thousand taels of silver, you take two thousand taels for your expenses, and leave one thousand taels for the eldest wife.Give the three thousand to Zhen'er, you are only allowed to take one thousand, and leave two thousand for your daughter-in-law to live on.They still spend their days separately, the house is in one place, and they eat their own meals.Fourth girl's future marriage is still my business.Poor girl Feng has been worrying all her life, and now she's got nothing, so I'll give her three thousand taels, and ask her to keep it for herself, not to be used by Lian'er.Now she is still sick and dizzy, so she asked Ping'er to come and get it.These are clothes left by your grandfather, and clothes and jewelry from my youth, which I don't need now.As for the men, ask Elder Master, Zhen'er, Lian'er, and Rong'er to share;The five hundred taels of silver will be handed over to Lian'er, who will send Miss Lin's coffin back to the south next year.After the allocation was made, Jia Zheng said again: "You said that it should be used by others now. This is indispensable. You ask to sell the gold to pay back."This is what they got rid of me, you are my son too, I am not partial.Baoyu has already made a family, and the gold and silver and other things I have left are worth several thousand taels of silver, and they are all given to Baoyu.Zhu'er's daughter-in-law has always been filial to me, and Lan'er is also good, I will give them some too.That's my business.

Seeing his mother's decisive analysis, Jia Zheng knelt down and cried and said: "The old lady is so old, and the children and grandchildren are not filial. Accepting the grace of the ancestors will make the children and grandchildren feel even more ashamed!"Jia Mu said, "Don't talk nonsense. If this mess doesn't happen, I'll keep it."It's just that there are too many family members now, and only the second master is on duty, so a few people are enough.Then you tell the person in charge to gather all the people and assign them properly.If there are people in each family, that's all. For example, if they copy everything, how about it?What is inside of us should also be assigned by others. Those who should be assigned should be assigned, and those who should be rewarded should be rewarded.Now even though our house is not going to be an official, you should hand over this garden after all.Those fields were originally handed over to Lian'er to clean up, sell what should be sold, and keep what should be kept. Don't support them and go short.I simply said, Jiangnan Zhen's family still has a few taels of silver, and the second wife keeps it there, so just ask someone to send it.If something happens again, didn't they escape the storm and encounter the rain again!

Jia Zheng was a person who didn't know how to manage the family. When he heard Jia's mother's words, he took orders one by one, thinking: the old lady is really a family manager, and it's all caused by us who are not motivated.Seeing that Jia's mother was tired, Jia Zheng begged the old lady to rest and recuperate.Jia Mu said again: "I have limited things left. When I die, I will use them as a result."The rest will be given to the girl I serve.When Jia Zheng and others heard this, they were even more sad. Everyone knelt down and said, "May the old lady be merciful. I only hope that the sons, thanks to the old lady's blessing, will invite their relatives after a while. At that time, they will work hard to manage their families and redeem them." In the past, I served my old wife until she was a hundred years old.Jia Mu said: "I hope this is the best. I can see my ancestors after I die."Don't look at me as a person who enjoys wealth but can't bear poverty, but in the past few years, I have seen your vigor and vigor, and I don't care about it, just talk and laugh, and keep fit.That knows that the family's luck has been defeated until this is the case!If it is beautiful on the outside but empty on the inside, I would have known it a long time ago.It's just that he moves his energy and raises his body, so he can't stand down for a while.Now take this as a good way to restrain yourself and guard this door, otherwise, people will laugh at you.You don't know yet, just look at me and know that I am poor, so I am anxious to die.In my heart, I was thinking about the great achievements of my ancestors, and every day I did not expect you to be stronger than my ancestors, and it was fine if I could keep it.Who knows what their father and son are doing!

Jia's mother was talking at length when she saw Feng'er running back and forth in a panic, Mrs. Wang said: "This morning our grandma cried a lot when she heard what happened outside, and now she can't catch her breath."Pinger called me Mrs. Shuaihui.Feng'er didn't finish speaking. When Jia's mother heard it, she asked, "what's the matter?"Mrs. Wang replied on her behalf: "It's not very good now."Jia Mu got up and said, "Hey, these enemies are going to grind me to death!"As he said, he asked someone to help him, and he wanted to see it for himself.Jia Zheng immediately stopped her and persuaded her, "The old lady has been heartbroken for a long time and has assigned many things. This meeting should take a break."That is, if the grandson's daughter-in-law has something to do, the daughter-in-law should just ask the daughter-in-law to look at it. Why should the old lady go there in person?If you get sad again, if there is something wrong with the old lady, what will you do with her son?Jia Mu said, "Go out separately and come in later. I have something to say."Jia Zheng didn't dare to say much, so he had to come out to take care of the getting up of his brothers and nephews, and asked Jia Lian to pick someone to follow.Here, Mother Jia asked Yuanyang to send someone to take the things for Sister Feng and follow them.

Sister Feng is fainting.Ping'er cried so redly that when she heard Jia Mu bringing Mrs. Wang, Baoyu and Baochai, she hurried out to meet her.Jia Mu then asked, "What's going on now?"Ping'er frightened Jia Mu, and said, "It's better now."Since the old lady is here, please go in and have a look.She ran in first, and gently opened the curtain.Sister Feng opened her eyes and saw Jia Mu coming in, full of shame.Earlier, she planned to wait for Mother Jia to annoy her, so that it didn't hurt, and it was up to her to live or die. Unexpectedly, Mother Jia came to see her, and she felt relieved, and felt that the congested air was a little looser, so she struggled to sit up.Jia's mother told Ping'er to hold it down, don't move, are you better?Sister Feng said with tears: "I came here as a child, how do old ladies and wives love me."Who knew that my luck was so poor that I was so driven by gods and ghosts that I lost my soul. Not only could I not show some filial piety to the old lady, but to please my parents-in-law, they still treated me like a human being and asked me to help with housework. But, what face do I have to see the old lady, madam!Today, the old lady and the wife came here in person, and I can't afford it. I'm afraid that what should live for three days will be discounted for two days.Said sadly.Jia Mu said, "Those things were started outside. What has it to do with you?"Even if your things are taken away by others, it is nothing!I've brought you quite a few things for you to do as you please.As he spoke, he asked someone to bring it up and show it to her.Sister Feng was originally a greedy person, but now that she has been copied, she is sad and afraid of people complaining. It is the time when she almost wants to live.Today, Jia Mu still loves her, and Mrs. Wang didn't blame her. She came to comfort her, thinking that Jia Lian was fine and her heart would be better, so she kowtowed to Jia Mu on the pillow and said, "please rest assured, old lady."If my illness is better thanks to the blessings of the old lady, I would rather be a rough girl and serve the old lady and wife with all my heart.Mother Jia was sad when she heard what she said, and she couldn't help crying.Baoyu has never been through such a big storm, a person who only knows peace and happiness in his heart and does not know sorrow, now he is crying when he bumps into it, so he is even more than a fool, he cries when he sees people cry.Sister Feng saw that everyone was sad, but she reluctantly said a few words to comfort Jiamu, begging: "Please go back, old lady, lady. I'm better. Come and kowtow."As he spoke, he raised his head.Jia's mother called Ping'er: "It's good to serve, what's the matter, go to my place."As he spoke, he took Mrs. Wang and was about to return to his room.Only two or three cries were heard.Jia Mu couldn't bear to hear it, so she asked Mrs. Wang to disperse, and told Baoyu, "Go see your uncle and elder brother, and come back as soon as you send it off."Lying on the couch and crying.Fortunately, mandarin ducks and others can use all kinds of words to persuade Jia Mu to rest for the time being.

It doesn't matter that Jia Amnesty and others are separated and grieved.Those who follow, who is willing?I can't help complaining in my heart, complaining endlessly.It is the farewell between life and fruit is better than death, and the beholder is more sad than the recipient.A good Rongguo Mansion is so noisy that people howl and ghosts cry.Jia Zheng followed the rules the most, and he was also particular about ethics. After parting hands, he rode out of the city first, gave wine to see him off, and ordered many countries to show sympathy to the ministers, trying to report what he said.Jia Amnesty and others parted ways in tears. Jia Zheng took Baoyu home, but before he could enter the door, he saw a lot of people shouting at the door, saying: "Today's purpose: to inherit the post of Duke Rongguo from Jia Zheng."Those people asked for happy money there, and the people in the door argued with them, saying that it was the original world job, and our family was attacked, so what good news is there?Those people said: The glory of that world position is more rare than anything else.Your elders have fallen out, want this, and can't do it any more.Today's saint is in power, he forgives his sins, and rewards the second master.This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, why not give money to Xi?Just as they were making a fuss, Jia Zheng went home and the door was closed. Although he liked it, it was because of his brother's crime. He felt so disgusted that he rushed in and told Jia's mother.Mrs. Wang was afraid that Jiamu would be sad, so she came to comfort her. She was very happy to hear that her post was restored.Seeing Jia Zheng coming in again, Jia Mu said some words of gratitude to the striders.Only Mrs. Xing and Youshi are sad, so they have no choice but to show it. Besides, these relatives and friends outside who are in a hurry can't avoid coming here when they have something to do in Jia's house before;Who knows that Jia Zheng has a pure and honest nature, because he took over his elder brother's position, he felt troubled in his heart, and he only knew to be grateful for the grace of heaven.On the second day, I went inside to thank you, and I will return the reward to the garden of the mansion to prepare a performance for the official.The inner court decree is not necessary, so Jia Zheng can go home with peace of mind and work according to his duties in the future.However, his family was in a slump and couldn't make ends meet.Jia Zheng can't socialize outside.The family members saw that Jia Zheng was loyal, that Sister Feng could not take care of the family due to illness, and that Jia Lian's deficit became more and more serious day by day, so it was inevitable that the mortgaged house would be sold.The rich family members in the mansion were afraid of Jia Lian's stalking, so they pretended to be poor and hid their affairs, and even asked for leave instead of coming, and each looked for another way. There is only one Bao Yong, although he is a newcomer here, he just happened to encounter bad things in the Rongfu, but he acted with sincerity, seeing those people cheating his master, he was often upset.Nai Ta is a newcomer, and he can't get in a word, so he gets angry and sleeps every day after eating.Everyone thought he was unwilling to be easy-going, so they said in front of Jia Zheng that he was greedy for drinking and making trouble all day long, and he was not on the job.Jia Zheng said, "Let him go."It was originally recommended by the Zhen family, I'm sorry.Anyway, it's not on him alone that Tim Tim in the family eats food, although he is poor.Not called for expulsion.Everyone said in front of Jia Lian how bad he was. Jia Lian didn't dare to pretend to be a blessing at this time, so he had to let him. Suddenly one day, Bao Yong couldn't stand it any longer. After drinking a few glasses of wine, he was wandering on Rongfu Street and saw two people talking.The man said: "Look, such a big mansion was raided a while ago. I don't know what's going on now?"The man said: How could his family lose?I heard that there is a lady in it who is a girl from his family. Although she is dead, she has a foundation after all.What's more, I often see that the people they come and go with are princes and princes. Where is there no response?It is the current Fu Yin, the former Ministry of War, is their family.Could it be that these people still can't come to shelter?The man said: You live here for nothing!Others can do it, but Mr. Jia alone is even more amazing!I often see him traveling between the two prefectures. Although the former imperial censor participated, the master asked the prefect to find out the facts before proceeding.How do you know him?He had benefited from the two mansions, but he was afraid that people would say that he was protecting the family, so he kicked him hard, so the two mansions copied it in the end.Do you think the current world situation is okay!The two of them had no intention of gossiping, but they didn't know that there was someone listening to them and understood.Bao Yong thought to himself: There is such a ungrateful person in the world, but I don't know who is my master?If I see him, I will beat him to death, and if there is trouble, I will take responsibility.That Bao Yong was thinking wildly after drinking, when he suddenly heard shouting from over there.Bao Yong stood far away.I saw the two people said softly: This is Mr. Jia.When Bao Yong heard this, he harbored resentment in his heart, took advantage of the drunkenness, and said loudly: "Men and women without conscience!"Why have you forgotten the kindness of our Jia family?Yucun was in the sedan chair. When he heard the word Jia, he watched carefully. Seeing that it was a drunk, he ignored it. That Bao Yong was drunk and didn't know what to do, so he returned to the mansion triumphantly, asked about his companions, and found out that the man he met just now was promoted by this mansion.He didn't want to miss his old kindness, but instead kicked our house, scolded him a few times when he saw him, but he didn't dare to answer.People in the Rong Mansion originally disliked Bao Yong, but the master didn't care about him. Now that he was in trouble again, he had to go back. Taking advantage of Jia Zheng's peace, he told Bao Yong's words about drinking and making trouble.Jia Zheng was afraid of the storm at this time, and when he heard his family's report, he got angry for a while, called Bao Yong in and scolded him, and then sent him to see the garden, and he was not allowed to walk outside.That Bao Yong had a straightforward temper, he voted for his master, and he defended him with all his heart, but Jia Zheng scolded him instead.He didn't dare to argue anymore, so he had to pack his luggage and go to the garden to water the guards.I don't know what will happen next, I will break it down next time.
