Chapter 11 Encourage Jia Zhen to find Lin Ruhai

 The method of besieging Wei and rescuing Zhao is too time-consuming, so it is better to attack Huanglong directly.

In this case, let’s have a good chat with Jia Zhen.

Going directly to Butler Lai Er, Jia Rong said: "My father asked me to marry a girl from a small family. Although she is very beautiful, she is not what I want after all.

I want to marry a woman with a generous dowry. Even if she is not as smart and capable as Aunt Feng, at least she can use her dowry to supplement us.

Also, the scholars I have tested based on their true talents and practical knowledge will definitely be able to win the imperial examination in the future.

It is really inappropriate for me to marry a girl from a small family. Can you tell me where my father is now?"

Laiji: "I haven't returned home these days. Maybe I went to Sanli Hutong, Ping'anfang."

Jia Rong was about to walk out when she was stopped by Lai Er.

"My uncle is very valuable. Those places are not suitable for you to go there. Why don't you ask me to help you invite me to come back?"

From what Lai said, this alley is not a good place.

As a scholar, I really shouldn’t go there, it will harm my reputation.

"Second Grandpa, please be more at ease about this matter.

We are on the same tree, we are all prosperous, and we are all damaged!"

Lai Er must understand this truth.

Although Sister Feng from Rongguo Mansion is a bit shrewd, her money is real.

No matter how hard Sister Feng controls her servants, she is still very relaxed about housekeepers.

My brother Lai Da is getting better and better every day, and he is getting more and more face every day.

Lai Er also wants to go out on his own to gain more face. If Uncle Rong can pass the Jinshi examination, according to the power of the Ningguo Mansion, he will surely rise to prominence in the future.

Maybe he can become prime minister in the future.

Thinking about how proud he will be following behind Mr. Rong from now on, Laiji becomes more motivated.

Jia Zhen came out of the beauty's den and was very unhappy. When she saw Laiji, she had a bad face.

"Is there something you can't talk about here?"

Laiji helped serve the master and asked him to get on the sedan chair.

On the way back, Lai Er revealed a little or two about Jia Rong's thoughts.

Jia Zhen was not happy, "This is my marriage, how dare he disobey me?"

This bastard doesn't think that if he is admitted as a scholar, he will be able to sit on my head.

He's just a scholar, nothing more.

I must show him some color and make him fear me as before.

Jia Zhen made up her mind.

Entering Ningguo Mansion and entering the study, Jia Rong is holding a book and reading.

As soon as they met, Jia Zhen spit in Jia Rong's face, "Bah, have you forgotten your last name?"

"Who do you think you are? You dare to question your father's decision."

Being spit on the face is a great humiliation and absolutely unacceptable for a person in the new century.

Anger welled up in his head, and Jia Rong was about to fight back, but for a moment he suppressed himself.

You must not curse. Once you curse, you will be destroyed.

In this society where filial piety reigns supreme, to contradict your biological father is to destroy your foundation and bring about your own destruction.

Article 4 of Workplace Life: Take the blame when your boss scolds you, and look for opportunities to retaliate.

In his previous life, when he was working in an office, in order to take revenge, he put laxatives in his boss's coffee for three consecutive days.

Increase the amount a little every day, and on the third day, let him shit his pants in public.

If you have a stomachache for three consecutive days, your boss will think it's a problem with your body, not the coffee.

Now, you have to endure it.

Immediately, Jia Rong knelt down and said in panic: "My child knows that he is wrong, and he will obey his father in everything."

Seeing that Jia Rong is still as afraid of herself as before, Jia Zhen is very proud.

This kid can't escape his Wuzhishan after all.

Jia Rong tried hard to hold back her tears, raised her head and said to her father: "My child just heard that my father wanted to buy Han pottery, but was robbed by others because he didn't have enough money. I felt dissatisfied for my father."

"The child thought that if there was a woman in the house who could make money, his father would not suffer this humiliation."

"If I had more money in my house, I could still take a colorful boat trip to the south of the Yangtze River and see all the beauties in the world."

"If there were more money in the house, my father would be able to acquire all the Western gadgets and make everyone in Kyoto envious."

"If there were more money in the house, no one would look down on my father."

Every word, every sentence hits Jia Zhen’s weakness.

Not long ago, he fell in love with a courtesan, and when he was about to buy it home, he was interrupted and teased that he didn't have enough money.

If I had more money, I would definitely be able to beat the enemy to the ground.

Who among the four bastards would not laugh at Jia Zhen’s jokes? Even the boy from the Duke Zhongyong’s mansion dared to come up and laugh at him.

This is really unreasonable.

If you marry someone like Lian Ge’s daughter-in-law, the scenery in this mansion will be extraordinary.

But whose girl is willing to be sent here?

Those in Kyoto are not happy, but those from other places are not afraid.

It’s just the little lady of the Qin family...

Jia Zhen was confused for a moment.

Jia Rong observed the words and expressions and knew that Jia Zhen was moved.

So he said: "It's the child's fault that he made his father sad."

"The child wants to use up all his money to let his father take a boat out to Beijing for some fun. To relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan."

Jia Rong's words suddenly awakened Jia Zhen.

Jia Zhen: Yes, Lin Ruhai on Jiangnan Road is rich, and his family happens to have a little girl.

Uncle Lin is in charge of salt, even if he doesn't ask for money, he just takes what he deserves, and his family's wealth is not much worse than his own.

If a girl from the Lin family gets married to a boy from the Lin family, the dowry will definitely be indispensable.

Also, brother-in-law Lin has salt. He can make a lot of money selling salt, maybe he can make a fortune.

I heard that my sister is sick, so I have an excuse to go out for a walk.

If you apply for family leave from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, your superiors will not disapprove it.

Jia Zhen looked at Jia Rong and thought that this guy just wanted to relax but didn't know anything about the Lin family. He was so stupid.

I am still smart and thought of it all at once.

Jia Zhen was happy in her heart, trying not to laugh, and said viciously: "That's nonsense, go back to study.

Next time, I will definitely break your dog legs."

"Yes. Thank you father for your kindness."

Seeing Jia Rong's grateful look, Jia Zhen is even more satisfied.

Jia Zhen: My ability to manipulate people’s hearts is quite good.

As soon as Jia Rong returned to her yard, she said sadly and dejectedly to Mrs. Liu who was waiting on her: "My father wants me to marry a girl from the Qin family, from a small family. It will not be of much benefit to us."

"I also heard that my father is going to buy the oiran in Man Yue House. The purchase price is five thousand taels of silver. In the future, he may only be able to pay half a month's salary."

"Half a month." Ms. Liu exclaimed.

"It's just a guess. Don't tell anyone else. Don't worry, I will persuade my father." Jia Rong sighed, "I don't know when it will end."

Mrs. Liu couldn't hide something in her heart, so she took Jia Rong's change of clothes and went out.

Watching Mr. Liu leave through the window, Jia Rong smiled.

Once the collective interests are touched, no matter how honest people are, they will become dishonest.
