Tanchun, Li Wan, Baochai, etc., because they had lost the contract of the farmland, instructed the steward to search carefully. This was originally a natural method. However, how could the stewards find it? He had been busy for many days, but there was no result. It was like a stone sinking into the sea!
It turned out that this batch of farmland contracts was stolen by Jia Huan. That time, Jia Huan had kidnapped Jia Yuan's daughter and when Jia Zheng found out, he was furious and said," I'm going to beat this bastard to death." When Caiyun heard this, she panicked and sent someone to inform Jia Huan behind his back, telling him to run for his life. Jia Huan also knew that he could not hide in the capital and was anxious to escape. However, he lacked an axe and was hesitant. That night, he sneaked back to the Rong Mansion. At first, he thought of stealing some gold and silver utensils from the place where they were kept and selling them at a higher price. When they reached there, the guards were tight and there was no way to start. She happened to pass by the contract room, but Chen Rui, who was in charge of the contract, was not in the room.
This person was originally in charge of the satin warehouse. Because he was good at digging for personal gain, he was promoted and put in an important position by Jia Lian. She had always been timid and afraid of ghosts. She heard that there were many flowers and divine trees in the Grand View Garden in the past. It was also said that Qingwen's sister-in-law was sucked by a monster climbing over the wall and died at that time. She was so scared that she did not dare to stay in the mansion. When night fell, they heard the sound of wind and grass, so they quickly slipped away, leaving only their servants to guard. Those manservants were still young, so how could they not be playful? Seeing that their boss had left, they also took the opportunity to stroll around.
Jia Huan walked past and saw that no one was watching, so he quickly unlocked the cupboard and took out various documents. He thought that the capital's real estate was a classic bet, so he had to come to the residence to verify it, which would cause trouble. Therefore, he only took a few sets of documents from the east and left the rest in the cabinet before sneaking out. Just as he arrived at the ceremonial door, he saw a person walking over from afar. It seemed to be Bei Ming. Thinking that this was really a narrow road for enemies, he quickly lay down under the tree and pretended to be a dog. Luckily, he was wearing black clothes, so Beiming didn't notice him when she walked past. She felt lucky. He slipped out of the manor and found a small smoking house. Jia Qin, Jia Yun and a group of people he had made friends with were waiting there. When everyone met, Jia Huan lay down and took out two tubes of Furong. Then he took out the contract and discussed with them. Jia Yun used to work in the West Mansion and knew the origin of the estate. She said,"Third Uncle, what use do you have for this? This estate property was all rewarded. They could only take it back and not pawn it. Wouldn't that be a waste?”Jia Huan was stunned when he heard that!
In this gang, there was a bumpkin called Yao Xiaoyi. Because of his sweet words, he was given the mixed name of " Little Candy Man " and could recognize a few words. He looked through the document and carefully thought about it before saying,"As long as Third Master leaves this matter to me, I can guarantee that you will hand over the documents and get the silver. However, I got to the east and acted accordingly. I have to bring this document with me. Third Master, are you at ease?”Jia Huan said,"We brothers, what's there to worry about?" But I'm going out of the capital for a walk. Let's go together.”Yao Xiaoyi said,"With your Third Master's help, it'll be even easier." How long should we go?" Jia Huan said,"If you want to leave, it's tomorrow." However, there is one thing that I didn't bring much cash with me. If I don't have enough on the way, I can only trouble you. We'll settle it there."
"Then what else is there to say?" Yao Xiaoyi said.”The two agreed. Jia Huan asked Jia Yun to go with him. Jia Yun said,"I still have to settle down at home. Third Uncle will leave for two days first. I will listen to your letter for the time being.”Jia Huan entrusted the small room he had rented in Huazhi Alley to Qin Yun and her husband to take care of. The next day, he went on a long journey with Yao Xiaoyi!
On the other hand, Wu Jinzhong, a farmer of the Rong Mansion, looked honest but was treacherous. Ever since his son had returned from the capital, he had spread many vicious words about Jia Lian and said that he wanted to settle the score with him. His heart was filled with hatred and fear, and he was about to make a move on the Jia residence. That day, his neighbor, Chen Er, suddenly walked over and said,""Third Master Huan of the Jia family is here. He wants to talk to you.”He was shocked. He wanted to ask his son to resist, but he was afraid that he was too young to speak, so he could only brace himself and follow the neighbors to Jia Huan's place.
First, Yao Xiaoyi pretended to be the manager and came out to see him. He talked big for a while and then said that he wanted to leave the village. "Everyone knows that this farm is a reward. Who dares to buy it?" Wu Jinzhong said.”"Who said anything about selling the land? Are we the ones selling land? It's just collecting rent piecemeal every year, saying that it rains a lot, that it's drought, and that it's hailing. I don't have the time to vent my anger on you. As long as anyone can take out a sum of cash, we can even hand over the documents to them. This will save our residence some trouble and benefit the other side. Don't you understand what I mean?" "It's not easy to find that person here." Wu Jinzhong said. Even those rich people who know that it's the fu's land are afraid of trouble. I can't agree to this.”Yao Xiaoyi said," In my opinion, there's no need to find another owner. You can always take out a sum of money and take over the land. In the future, everything collected on the ground will belong to you. You don't have to take a single cent. How could there be such a cheap thing in the world? A fat pig had come in, so why would he chase it out?”Wu Jinzhong said," Grandpa Yao, it's easy for you to say. We farmers carry a mouth on our shoulders. We rely on our strength to eat." Where could he get this sum of cash?”Yao Xiaoyi laughed coldly." Wu Lao Er, I'm saying this for you. Don't be unaware." If you don't take it, I'll find someone to do it myself. In less than a month, if I can't find a master to take it, my surname won't be Yao! At that time, it would be too late to regret when you see someone else planting the land you planted! Think about it carefully, am I a good friend?”
These words were both scaring and deceiving. Wu Jinzhong was moved by him and quietly asked what was the method. Yao Xiaoyi said," This method is much cheaper for you. Let me tell you: First, this land is still in the Jia family, but if I hand it over to the Wu family and let you manage it however you want, the Jia family will not ask. Second, all the rent and grain that you have to pay every year will be exempted, as long as you hand over twenty thousand silver. Thirdly, after the silver is paid, I will hand over all the land deeds to you. In the future, when the men of the Jia family came, they would treat them as guests.”When Wu Jinzhong heard this, he was naturally willing. However, the amount of silver was too much. Starting from 20,000 silver, it gradually decreased a few times. Wu Jinzhong always said that he did not have the strength. Yao Xiaoyi pretended to be on the verge of falling out with the neighbor, Chen Er, who said good and bad things to accommodate both sides. Only then did the discussion come to an end. Each time, they would pay four thousand taels, and every year, they would pay four hundred taels. They would sign a contract and hand it over to each other. Only a small house in the village was left as Jia Huan's residence.
There were tenants in every corner of the half-barren and half-ripe land. Yao Xiaoyi had sent them all over, imitating this method. He had even given them the names of the landowners. Jia Huan got a lot of silver for nothing. From then on, he lived there with Yao Xiaoyi, whoring and gambling, eating and abusing. Yao Xiaoyi also helped him rope in ordinary horse thieves and Hu bandits, doing many lawless things.
Chen Rui, who had secretly cheated that Guan Wenqi, entered the manor the next day and was shocked to see that the cupboard lock was twisted! Fortunately, the package was still there, so he quickly took it out and checked it carefully. However, a few sets were missing, and he knew that it had been stolen. At that moment, he secretly told the servants not to make a sound, while secretly trying to find out, it was not a day. They thought that Jia Lian had gone back to the south, so there was no one to check. Unexpectedly, Tanchun and Baochai's wives suddenly had this sort of arrangement. That day, although he used words to brush it off, but the thief from home became a thief from outside, where could he find out the truth? Jia Huan was licking honey with his knife while Chen Rui was looking for a needle in a haystack. It was also an unfair thing. Fortunately, he also had an insider. His wife was Madam Xing's servant girl, who had begged Madam Xing to pay for her house. Madam Xing didn't know the big picture, so she repeatedly pleaded with Jia Zheng and Madam Wang and said,""That day, he was afraid of ghosts and went out to hide, so this accident happened! When we women hear that there are ghosts, we also have to dodge. Can we blame him?”Although Madam Jia Zheng Wang found it ridiculous, she couldn't refute it directly. In the end, he was given a light punishment and was kicked out without further investigation.
