When Jia Lian heard this, his face showed bitterness, "uncle, I'm so old that I didn't even pass the exam. I don't want to continue the exam. I'm good at arithmetic and common affairs. I'll be a housekeeper in the future.

Although women can manage, after all, they are stuck in the backyard and can't control the outside. When I check various industries every year, I'm not afraid of those servants to deceive the upper and lower levels, so as to prevent them from becoming moths lying on Rong Guo's house and drinking blood. "

When Bai Yixiu heard what Jia Lian said, he felt that the child knew himself very well and knew himself well. "Well, your second uncle and I were Jinshi in the same year. He was a teacher in Jinling academy, and your grandfather and grandmother lived in Yuhang. If you have time, write to them."

Jia Lian was stunned. "Is there anyone else in my grandfather's family?"

I've never heard of it before. I was very surprised when I heard it for the first time.

Bai Yixiu was also stunned, "don't you know?"

Jia Lian shook his head. "I don't know. No one at home said that I asked when I was a child, but every time I asked, my father beat me, so that I don't dare to ask now."

Bai Yixiu cried and laughed, "then you go home and ask your father. I didn't tell you before to protect you. Now there's no need to avoid it. I think I won't hide it from you."

"Thank you for reminding me!" Jia Lian said respectfully, and asked his father when he came home.

The reason why Bai Yixiu said this to Jia Lian and mentioned him is also to thank Jia Lian for not protecting Lin Daiyu when he was in the most difficult time. Jia Lian came in person and arranged Jia Min's funeral together, and also brought Lin Daiyu back to the capital safely.

Jia Lian still has some ability, and Bai Yixiu is willing to help, "Lian Er, go back and tell your father to prepare 100000 liang of silver. Next year, I have a big project here that needs crowdfunding. It's a big deal. It's not enough to make money every day."

"Ah?" Jia Lian was excited. "Uncle, what good project?"

After the family paid off the arrears, although there was still some silver in the Treasury, such a large family, sister and brother had not been married, so they had to spend money everywhere, which was not enough.

Because his father asked for debt outside, he didn't dare to open a shop outside for fear of being smashed. If Uncle Lin came forward, there would be no such worry.

Bai Yixiu smiled. "I can't say it yet. Go back and tell your father to get the money ready. By the way, brother Jing next door, you also said it was 100000 liang of silver."

Since my uncle didn't say, Jia Lian didn't continue to ask, and readily promised, "OK, uncle, I'll tell my father when I go back."

"Well, don't worry, I'm reliable and I promise I won't let you lose money." Bai Yixiu comforted. He asked for money from each family. Now it's time to find a way to make money for everyone.

Otherwise, even if these noble men dare not come hard on the surface, they may be able to give him a behind the scenes when they do things in the future.

After dinner, Lin Daiyu took the things prepared by sun Yingying to Jia's house.

Wang Xifeng was very happy to see sister Lin follow her. "Sister Lin, the old lady has been thinking of you. Go back with us to see the old lady. I'll take you home before the new year."

Lin Daiyu nodded, smiled and said, "thank you, sister-in-law Lian. I miss my grandmother very much these days. My mother also agreed that I should stay with my grandmother for two days and persuade her not to resent my uncle."

Wang Xifeng nodded, "yes, we young people do have to persuade the old lady more!"
