Chapter 211 Lin Ruhai gets married

The day before the Lantern Festival, many women gathered in Ningguo Mansion.

Jia Rong is not at home, Xichun is not very energetic, and is unwilling to write novels.

Lin Daiyu laughed at her, "You can't live without Brother Rong? Do you want to stay with him for the rest of your life?"

Shi Xiangyun smiled and said: "You don't know, those people who come to propose marriage will soon step on the threshold of Ping Ningguo Mansion."

Tanchun laughed and said: "There are a lot of invitations to the banquet. If everyone goes to attend, I don't know what the food will be like."

Lin Daiyu pursed her lips and said: "Someone wants to marry my father. I'm afraid there will be a stepmother soon."

"Which girl?"

"There are three families of girls, but we haven't decided yet."

Lin Daiyu doesn't know what her father is thinking, so it's hard to say which family the girl is from.

It's not her turn to take care of the matter of her father marrying and filling the house, and she doesn't want to.

It's snowing heavily. Due to the snowstorm this year, many people are not in the mood to celebrate the Lantern Festival.

This year's Lantern Festival passed uneventfully.

Jia Rui originally wanted to take advantage of the Lantern Festival to enter Rongguo Mansion to find Wang Xifeng.

It's a pity that Rongguo Mansion doesn't hold grand ostentation, so it doesn't invite outsiders into the mansion.

Jia Rui is not an important person, let alone invited.

Being blown by the cold wind, Jia Rui's illness became more serious.

Outside Shili Pavilion

Jia Rong wrapped herself in clothes and warmed herself by the fire, holding a stack of lists in her hand and looking at them.

Disaster relief is not a simple job. He is flesh and blood and has now lost several pounds.

"Uncle, these are all good blacksmiths, and some are good craftsmen.

What do you want these people to do?"

Dongzi asked him.

Kang'er was boiling water aside and listened carefully. He was exhausted from running errands for his uncle recently.

Jia Rong gave Dongzi the list and said, "Ask your brother to come see me."

"Okay."

The uncle came here to provide disaster relief, and most of the guards and servants of the house came here.

Not long after Dongzi ran out, she found Brother Kai.

"Brother, I asked you to come over."

Brother Kai wiped the roasted sweet potato from the corner of his mouth, picked up the dog-skin hat and put it on.

After a while, he arrived outside Jia Rong's tent and asked, "Master, I'm looking for you."

"Come in."

When Brother Kai saw his uncle looking down at the information, he didn't dare to read more. He looked down at his feet and asked, "Is there anything I need to do?"

Jia Rong gave him a stack of lists, "Go and contact these people and ask them if they are willing to mine."

Brother Kai looked up, with some surprise in his eyes.

He didn't know how the miracle happened, but he knew that the miracle must be related to the stone he brought back.

"Where do you plan to open the mine?"

Jia Rong stood up and patted Brother Kai on the shoulder, "Your eldest son is six years old, right."

"Yes, the brat has begun to become enlightened."

"Send it to the clan school."

Brother Kai felt like something was falling from the sky, which made him dizzy.

"Sir...sir, is it true?"

"I will reserve a place for your family for a long time. If your son cannot be admitted as a scholar within six years, your family can change someone and continue to send him to the clan school."

Brother Kai became even more dizzy, and there were fireworks in his mind, bang bang bang.

I want to train my boy to become an official.

My family is going to have an official.

A serious official is not the kind to be bought with money.

Brother Kai burst into tears of gratitude, knelt down and choked with sobs: "Young man is willing to go through fire and water for me. If you have anything to do with me, just ask me."

Jia Rong sat on the tuanfu, putting one foot down and one foot up, "This is risky, but it is also an opportunity for you and a fortune for your family."

"Once this is done, your family's wealth will be enough for three generations."

Brother Kai raised his head and looked at the uncle, "The uncle wants the younger one to be the mine owner?"

"I have this idea. Now you go and buy this mountain first, and then prepare to dig out the ore.

If you get it right, your whole family will flourish; if you don't get it right, you'll be dead.

It’s up to you to decide whether you want to go or not.”

Go, must go.

Wealth and honor are found in danger. If you don't go there, you won't have wealth.

Brother Kai said without hesitation: "Please rest assured, I will definitely live up to your trust."

Jia Rong gave him ten thousand taels of silver and asked him to buy a mine and dig aluminum ore.

At this time, a group of scholars came to Jia Rong. They liked to chat with Jia Rong.

They feel that only Jia Rong can understand what they are thinking and can give them guidance for their confusion.

"Ideological work must be done well. We are educated people, and they are all rough guys. We may not understand the truth, so we have to explain it in detail."

Jia Rong persuaded these scholars, "You have done a good job. No matter what you do in the future, this will be an excellent experience for you."

"Tomorrow I will start preaching about farming skills. I will talk about the skills in the book and let the old men listen.

We also listen to their opinions more and see if we can learn from each other's strengths."

Someone is making trouble and it’s noisy outside.

"Uncle, there's a fight over there."

"Quick, let the escort pass."

Jia Rong went over to take a look and found that it was a group fight.

"Quick, separate them."

"The escort is here, please separate quickly..."

"Master Jia, you are here to judge, who is right in this matter?"

A man came forward with several brothers to question Jia Rong.

Another group of people also came forward to question.

As soon as the two parties approached, they started pushing and shoving.

Someone in the crowd handed over a knife and quietly brought it to him. Someone took Jia Rong's hand and stuffed the knife into it.

Another person pushed Jia Rong's shoulder. Jia Rong rushed over and stabbed Jiang Zining, the second-class hereditary male grandson of Pingyuan Hou.

……

After the court meeting dispersed, Zhang Ding was still discussing with his disciples how to deal with Yan Shoufu, when he heard a disciple report:

"My uncle committed a murder. He killed Jiang Zining, the hereditary second-class male grandson of Pingyuan Marquis."

"Now I am in prison of the Ministry of Punishment."

Zhang Ding: "The prison of the Ministry of Punishment?"

"Why did you enter the prison of the Ministry of Justice? Shouldn't it be in the prison of Yingtian Mansion or Zongren Mansion?" Han Yushi asked.

The retainer said: "The person who came back to report the news said that they had already laid an ambush, and the Minister of Criminal Affairs showed up as soon as the incident happened last night."

"It seems that the Grand Canal is quite dirty, making them so angry that they want to kill Jia Ziqian."

"The dog is so anxious that he jumps over the wall."

Zhang Ding ordered: "Keep this news from the second lady, don't let her know."

"Yes."

Zhang Ding immediately turned around and entered the palace to intercede with the emperor.
