Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 12
Jia Huan next to him was hesitant to speak, remembering that he and Jia Rong and the others couldn't get along with each other, so he pouted and wanted Raja Lan to go back together.However, Jia Lan, the youngest, was more polite and mature, and bid farewell to Jia Rong before leaving.

In the corner, Jia Qin, Jia Chang, Jia Ling and the others were counting the belongings in the ancestral hall, and the three gamblers discussed how they could gamble together for a few days.

After Jia Rong heard this, she really wanted to sweep these prodigal sons out with one blow. She frowned and said, "The family ancestral hall is not your playful place, get out quickly."

The three of them were not annoyed when they heard this, but flattered them: "Brother Rong, don't be angry, let's go now."

"Brother Rong has really been enlightened by the ancestors, like a different person." Jia Qiang, who is beautiful in appearance, stepped forward, took Jia Rong's hand directly, and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Brother Rong." You don't miss me."

Huh... Jia Rong's scalp felt numb and goose bumps all over her body.

Embarrassed, he looked at Jia Qiang, who looked like a woman and had a flirtatious eyebrow.

Remembering the original information from Diandian, it turns out that Jia Qiang is the decent great-great-grandson of Ningguo Mansion. Both of his parents died when he was young, and he lived with Jia Zhen since childhood.In past memories, Jia Zhen treated Jia Qiang as a nephew better than her own son.

Later, because of some bad rumors in the mansion, Jia Zhen reluctantly gave up and ordered Jia Qiang to move out of Ningguo Mansion and set up her own family.

Jia Rong has also heard those gossips these days.

I and Jia Qiang should have nothing to do, at most, they are brothers who walk closer.

"It's Brother Qiang, are you still used to living outside? How about I tell the master to let you move back to the mansion."

"Really?" Jia Qiang suddenly smiled, and was about to answer, but suddenly thought of something, and sighed: "Forget it, it's good to live outside."

Sometimes, it is not a good thing for a man to be too beautiful.

"It's better to live outside, it's more comfortable than living in the mansion." Jia Rong comforted, "From now on, you can come to the mansion more often, and the family should not be far away from each other."

Jia Qiang nodded her head in agreement, then leaned into Jia Rong's ear and said, "I heard that Brother Rong wants to find some reliable people to do things with, what do you think of me?"

"Aren't you listening in a private school?"

"I'm not the number one scholar like Uncle Bao." Jia Qiang said, "It's just for the few taels of silver every year in the ethnology. Otherwise, how could so many people listen to that nerve."

Go to school, still have money to send?It was the first time Jia Rong heard of such a thing.

Combined with the current society, it is actually not difficult to understand that in order to ensure the continuation of the prosperity and wealth of future generations, each family will try its best to let the descendants of the family to test their fame and make achievements.As long as there are a few of them in their early years, other houses can also enjoy some privileges.

Every clan is a community of interests, one loses all, one prospers all.So once a promising person appears in the clan, he will be treated favorably by the entire clan.At the same time, there is another kind of bad thinking: the clan is bigger than the sky, and the country will not perish if the family dies.

Now Jia Rong is the one who will be treated favorably, this feeling is really good.

He withdrew his hand from Jia Qiang's arms without showing any trace, knowing that his brother was not a material for studying, he said with a smile: "Aren't you planning to go to the private school?"

"Go, of course you have to go. Eight taels of silver a year, why don't you go. But... it doesn't hinder you from asking for errands with Brother Rong."

"It's only been a long time since I went out, and I've become so shameless and shameless. I don't know who I learned from." Jia Rong laughed and scolded, "I have a lot of errands and I don't have much money. If you really want to do it, come to the mansion tomorrow Just look for me."

"Save it, save it." Jia Qiang nodded again and again, "Brother Yun from the family of the third bedroom and the fifth aunt's family is also in short supply recently, can you give him an errand?"

"Why doesn't he come by himself?"

"Brother Yun is filial. He has already returned home with his belongings to take care of his sick aunt. He is from the Rong Mansion, so it is difficult to find him, so he dragged me to ask."

There is no impression of Jia Yun in my memory.Jia Rong thought, since he is a filial person, his character should not be too bad, so he agreed.

Although the members of the Jia family believed in the fact that Jia Rong met the old man, they didn't care about the cement recipe at all.This thing has to be done by himself.I only know the materials and procedures for making cement, and the specific ratio needs to be studied experimentally.

Jia Rong needs a few people who have read and read to record the ratio of each material used and the comparison of the effect of use.

He didn't feel relieved to leave this kind of matter to outsiders, so he could only find someone in Jia's house.Jia Qiang and Jia Yun may be the most suitable candidates he can find.

Early the next morning, the two came.

Don't think about it, this guy Jia Qiang must have just reported to the ethnology and returned.Jia Rong did not forget to joke: "Aren't you afraid that the tuition money will be deducted?"

Jia Qiang said disdainfully: "He dared to miss me. I'm not the only one who came back, Second Uncle Bao didn't even go."

Today, Huifang Garden in Ningfu is extremely lively.Not only Jia Qiang, Jia Yun and others came.Feng Lazi, who had nothing to do, also brought a group of girls to play, curious about the cement wonder in Jia Rong's mouth.

Fortunately, Jia Rong got the news early that some aunts who were not out of the cabinet were coming, so they arranged Zong Cheng and others into the nearby yard to avoid suspicion.

Before Jia Rong had time to greet everyone, a limping little fat man rushed out of the crowd.

"Brother Rong, you hurt me."

Xiaopang's face was sad and angry, and there was no one else but Baoyu.

"Yeah, what's wrong with Uncle Bao's leg? Who hurt you? Tell me quickly, and I'll vent your anger on you."

The little fat man gritted his teeth and said, "It's you, it's you. You caused me to be beaten by the master, and it's all your fault."

"It was your master who beat you... Did you hurt your leg or your butt? You can't run around, I'll send you back to the hospital so you can rest." Jia Rong kept her mouth shut with a concerned look on her face. What caused Baoyu to be beaten.

You can guess it without thinking, it must be because when Jia Zheng asked about the homework, Baoyu didn't answer and rewarded him with a board.

Baoyu snorted and looked at Jia Rong resentfully.

Lin Daiyu in the crowd couldn't help laughing and said: "He is used to Jingui, he earned a few catties of tears from his aunt last night, and went to his ancestors this morning to beg for mercy, but the ancestors didn't listen to him, he will be angry I'm looking for you to speak."

When Baoyu heard that Lin Daiyu had dismantled her, she lost her composure and said awkwardly, "My sister laughed at me again."

"It makes you like playing tricks." Lin Daiyu replied.Seeing that everyone was looking at him, a blush immediately spread on his face, and he stopped talking to Baoyu.Looking around in the garden, he asked curiously, "Where is the strange thing? Why haven't I seen it?"

Jia Rong said: "We can't see the strange things yet."

Hearing that everyone was also a little disappointed, Jia Rong said again: "My daughter-in-law is on the way to the garden, and the chrysanthemums are in full bloom. If you can't see the strange things, why not enjoy the flowers in this garden and try the newly made chrysanthemum tea. .”

These people are also interested in it for a while, and they don't care much about cement.Jia Rong ran to the cement research yard to talk to Jia Qiang, Jia Yun, and Zong Cheng, and led them into the garden.

Only Wang Xifeng pulled Jia Rong along the road and asked, "Is this recipe really profitable?"

Making money is definitely possible. Jia Rong doesn't just think about making money. The uses of cement are not small.

In the late Qing Dynasty, the Westernization School wrote a chapter saying: cement is a "necessary thing" for the construction of fort buildings and other items, "as for bridges, sluice dams, river construction and seawall projects, it is even more appropriate."

That's why Western cement technology was introduced, a fine soil factory was established, and cement was gradually used in housing construction, bridge engineering, water conservancy construction and other fields, and it was called a fortification god at that time.

It is not only beneficial to the people's livelihood, but also to the military.

　I easily labeled Jia Yun as Jia Qin, it has been revised.Jia Qin is a gambler who works in the temple in the Ning Mansion, and Jia Yun is a poor and motivated family in the Rong Mansion.According to Zhi's commentary, after Jia Yun's defeat in Jia's house, Baoyu should have been helped, and she is a person who knows how to repay her kindness.
