The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 46 Borrowing Money
"It's not the wife, it's the wife here."

Ying'er winked secretly, and the nurse Qian beside her saw their small movements, so she rolled her eyes, since she wasn't from the Jia family anyway, she didn't bother to care.

Although the little girl in front of her spoke vaguely, Tang Qing'an understood.

After all, they are two sisters, both of them are courageous.

When Aunt Xue saw the outsider, there were many plots in the red building. For example, Xue Pan was beaten up by Liu Xianglian and felt ashamed to face others, so he was about to go out to do business with the big shopkeeper Zhang Dehui.

Aunt Xue therefore invited Zhang Dehui to eat at home, and she talked to Zhang Dehui outside the window.

The same is true of Mrs. Wang. Jia Baoyu was beaten and went directly to the study. At that time, there were all the guests and servants in the study.

Tang Qing'an realized that there was Mrs. Wang in the room, and quickly said loudly, "Going back to Madam, the matter of going to Liaodong is something that my master and I agreed a long time ago, and I didn't make it my own."

"Although I am a white man, I am also worried about the country's affairs. My master also supports me to go to Liaodong to serve the country."

"I went to Beijing last year, and I also went to the palace to meet the prince. My current position of a hundred households is also under the care of the prince."

Mrs. Wang heard that the other party also mentioned her brother, and looked at Aunt Xue suspiciously. Aunt Xue shook her head, but she didn't know.

In any case, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue dared not treat outsiders casually when their elder brother was involved.

"What is a hundred households?"

a girl asked quietly.

Several girls didn't understand, and finally Xue Baochai guessed, "It seems to be a military position in the army."

"Is the official senior?"

"Then I don't know."

……

"Since this is the case, it can be regarded as a serious reason. Then why did you come back from Liaodong?"

Hear the maid's question.

Tang Qing'an knelt on the ground, feeling very tired. He wondered if the other party knew that he was kneeling. If it was in person, it would be impossible to be so harsh.

"The Liaodong Metropolis has some official business, and it may bother the master. I have just arrived, and the master is not at home. I heard from Yu Lu over there that my wife has moved here, so I hurried here to say hello."

Hearing the reply from outside the window, Mrs. Wang couldn't find the fault, and it was all the business of the masters of the family, so she didn't dare to mess around.

Seeing that her sister was not in the mood to continue asking questions, Aunt Xue got off the kang and walked to the window. Seeing the kneeling shadow in the distance, she realized that Tang Qing'an was still kneeling.

"Get up, it's no use kneeling for so long."

Hearing Aunt Xue's voice from the window, Tang Qing'an smiled, got up, and said with a smile, "It's a disadvantage to kowtow to my wife, I was raised by Xue's family so much, let alone just for a while, kneeling for a few more days will not be enough." Row."

"Okay, don't be silly, you came to the capital from Liaodong, you must be tired after such a long journey, go back and rest, maybe the master over there will ask you to ask questions, before you leave the capital, come to my place again."

"Ma'am, is there anyone on the cabinet in Beijing?"

Aunt Xue immediately understood that Tang Qing'an had something to do with Xue's family, so she replied to him.

"President Da Lan also came to Beijing, and picked up all the shops in the capital. I'll send someone to take you to see him tomorrow."

Although it was just a simple sentence, Tang Qing'an understood that the first and second families were actually separated.

Tang Qing'an knew that there were outsiders in Aunt Xue's room, and it was inconvenient to talk, so she said goodbye with a few simple words and left.

Mrs. Wang didn't seem to hear what the two said, so she called Zhou Rui's family out to question, and the sisters in the room quickly ignored the matter.

……

When Jia Zhen came back from the temple, her face was very ugly.

Could it be that father is old and confused?To let her family marry that "disaster", in Jia Zhen's view, her father wanted to repay her kindness, but it would not be necessary to drag her family back into trouble.

The family finally got better, why did they marry "that man"'s daughter back into the family?The father felt that marrying the old man's daughter home would secretly gain the gratitude of many people.

In Jia Zhen's view, this is actually an excuse for his father, and it is actually to repay his kindness for knowing him back then.

Back then, Qin Ye risked a lot of money to adopt "that man"'s offspring in order to repay his kindness. As a result, he became a fifth-rank clerk, took charge of the most lucrative job, and his family situation plummeted instead.

Anyone with a discerning eye would know why, the emperor simply left him idle because he was not good at punishing this person.

When she got home and saw her 17-year-old son Jia Rong, Jia Zhen remembered that she was even more reluctant when she heard that the girl was still the same age as her son.

Yu Lu stepped forward and said that Tang Qing'an was back, Jia Zhen put the matter aside and asked Yu Lu to call him over.

"Why did you come back suddenly?"

Hearing Jia Zhen's question, she glanced at Jia Zhen's face, guessing that the other party was in a bad mood, Tang Qing'an surrounded her with a playful smile.

"I haven't seen the master for a few months, and I miss the master very much, so I came back to say hello to the master."

"Screw you."

Then Jia Zhen laughed, "Could it be that you encountered any difficulties in Liaodong?"

So Tang Qing'an told the story of the camp.

"It turned out that you were asking me to help you clear up the relationship with the Chief Secretary in Shandong. I thought you really missed me."

Hearing Jia Zhen's joke, Tang Qing'an laughed.

"It is precisely because I want to repay the master for his kindness that I have to do a good job in Liaodong as soon as possible.

I have already signed up for this year's martial arts exam. With experience and the care of soldiers and patrols, the ranking is already guaranteed.

If these things are not handled properly, how dare I come back to see the master. "

Tang Qing'an was originally just a casual move and a small family, but in just a few months, he was able to integrate into the local network by virtue of his own ability.

Hearing Tang Qing'an mentioned the kindness of knowledge and encounter, Jia Zhen was very satisfied and thought that in these years, many people still secretly repaid the kindness of knowledge and encounter to the deceased, thinking that this son was also loyal.

He sighed in his heart at the same time, his father also wanted to repay the kindness of knowing him, he was extremely reluctant, although the emperor seemed to have completely forgotten about that matter these years, did the emperor really not care about it?

"I know about this matter, I will write a letter later, and have competent people take it and submit it to Suguan, the Chief Secretary of Shandong Province.

When you go back, visit him with my name card. It's not a big deal, he will sell me a favor. "

Seeing that Tang Qing'an was still in place, Jia Zhen was puzzled.

"What's the matter with you?"

"My lord, I spent a lot of money in Liaodong. When I went to Liaodong, I brought more than 100 taels of silver with me, and there was not much left. I only got 70 taels of silver at the beginning of the year. It was less than two months, and there were only a dozen taels left... "

Tang Qing'an said embarrassedly.

Jia Rong and Yu Lu on the side looked at each other in blank dismay, and this person actually asked the family for money.

"Usually, others pay tribute to our family, but you are different. You actually want to beat the family's autumn wind."

Seeing that the master was not angry, Yu Lu couldn't help laughing from the side.

"I only dared to speak because of the master's love."

Sometimes, borrowing money is also a gesture of goodwill.

Sure enough, Jia Zhen was not angry. She looked at Tang Qing'an and shook her head helplessly.
