: Blood exchange (please vote for me)

Ningrong Erfu has been based in the capital for almost a hundred years!

In a hundred years, the family in the mansion would have enough children for five generations.

In other words, the families in Ningrong's second house had a large number of children, and their relationships were even more intricate, forming a rather astonishing network.

Not to mention, Ningrong's Second Mansion rarely expels their servants and will actively buy a new batch of slaves and maids from Yaxing every few years.

In this way, the total number of children and servants in Ningrong's second mansion has already exceeded a thousand.

But how many core members, or masters, are there in the two houses?

On the Ning Mansion side, there are Jia Jing who practices Xuanzhen Temple outside the city, Jia Zhen who cultivates outside the city, Mrs. Zhao who is in the backyard of Ning Mansion, Youshi who actually presides over the affairs of the inner courtyard, and the current head of the family Jia Zhen.

Rong, and Jia Xichun, who was just born.

Although Jia Qiang can be regarded as a direct descendant of the Ning family, it is a pity that she is not a core member of the family.

When he reaches adulthood, he will move out directly and live elsewhere.

As for the Rong Mansion, there are the old lady Jia Mu, the Grand Master Pardon and Mrs.

In the second room are Mr. Zheng and Mrs. Wang, followed by Jia Zhu, Jia Yuanchun, Jia Baoyu, and the concubines Jia Huan and Jia Tanchun.

The total number of Jia family members in the two houses is just over ten. Do they need thousands or even more servants to serve them?

This does not include the servants in Zhuangzi's shop and the shop. If they were included, the number would be even greater.

Just keeping so many servants is a huge drain.

Not to mention, none of these servants are very peaceful, or they just want to take advantage of the master's family.

In the story of Red Mansions, why the Rong Mansion cannot make ends meet, in addition to all kinds of unexplained expenses, the reason why the mansion supports thousands of servants is also one of the main reasons.

The key is that neither Mrs. Jia nor Mrs. Wang have any intention of reducing manpower.

In order to maintain the so-called dignity, it is natural to spend a lot of money in vain.

This time, the Ning Mansion suddenly started a large-scale blood exchange mode for the servants in the mansion. Although the move was not very big, it also caused great uneasiness among the servants.

Although Mrs. Zhao had spoken out early, she was only targeting the servants who behaved or did not do anything during the period when Jia Zhen was the head of the family, and asked them to exchange them for children from Zhuangzi's family.

It's not like they are driven out of the mansion to fend for themselves. From now on, they will still work under Ning Mansion, it will be the same.

But the servants in the mansion are still panic-stricken. Mrs. Zhao's words are indeed reasonable, but no servant in the mansion is willing to exchange for a son from the Zhuangzi family.

At this time, Daqian was in the traditional feudal era, and productivity was still at the level of agricultural civilization.

In Zhuangzi, where cities and villages are located, living standards and convenient conditions are completely two different concepts.

Living in a big city, food, clothing, housing and transportation are very convenient. If you need to purchase something, you can find the corresponding store as soon as possible.

However, in the countryside where Zhuangzi lived, not only was the living environment poor, but all kinds of materials were quite scarce, which had a great impact on the quality of life.

Anyway, the children who are used to living in the mansion don't want to move out at all.

It's a pity that Mrs. Zhao would not be able to reason with them?

At the beginning of the big blood exchange, he was willing to explain, but once things got started, he didn't bother to pay attention to the wails of the children in the house.

It's a pity that no matter how the chosen son behaves, he can't change Mrs. Zhao's mind.

Besides, the children of these families who were exchanged for blood had obvious mistakes and omissions, so it would be interesting not to punish them directly.

But despite this, the number of servants who went to Mrs. Zhao and You every day to cry and plead for mercy has never decreased.

Even here in Jia Rong, some families came to ask for help.

He didn't pay any attention to it. He just excused himself as he didn't understand the situation and he was not responsible for managing the inner court, so he easily pushed it out.

Of course, privately, the security protection of the house has been strengthened.

Although I don't think that a family whose children have been exchanged will do something extreme unless they are forced into a desperate situation, but there is no harm in being careful.

Mrs. Zhao's methods are quite clever. She obviously targets a group of people, scares a group of people, and then wins over a group of people, without giving the family a chance to have children together.

The effect is also obvious. Children from several families are sent out every now and then, and their families leave to exchange them with children from families who have performed well on Zhuangzi.

The Ning Mansion has been quite stable during this period, and there has been no trouble. Naturally, there has been no trouble.

Thinking about it, it is understandable. It is not about life and death. Even if you go to Zhuangzi, you will still act as a boss and dominate. At most, the quality of life will be poor.

It's not a life-threatening matter. If the fuss is too much, no matter who owns the house will be suspicious, but it may be self-defeating.

I just didn't expect that there was no problem within the Ning Mansion, but the Rong Mansion was the first to explode.

Some of the children in the family had a feeling of "sorrow for the death of the rabbit and the fox", and they all angrily criticized Mrs. Zhao in various ways, and even cursed her in private.

It seems that the Ning Mansion's slowly changing family and children have touched their fundamental interests, so they are not angry.

The emotions and attitudes of the children at home were quickly reflected in the ears of the old lady Jia Mu.

As the person with the highest status in Rongfu, it goes without saying that Mother Jia has great control over Rongfu, especially the inner courtyard within the second gate, her control is even more incredible.

"Nonsense!"

She didn't look very good, and said angrily: "For a family like ours, there is no reason to treat the servants harshly, let alone the children of meritorious families!"

"Go, call Brother Rong over and tell him that the old lady has something to tell him!"

As for Mrs. Zhao and I, who didn't go directly to take action, our relationship was average. Even though Mother Jia's status was high, she couldn't scare Mrs. Zhao.

Who said that the Zhao family is stronger than the Rong family? Mrs. Zhao is very confident.

Facing Jia Rong, Jia Mu felt that she could still handle it.

After all, Jia Rong is young, and the generation gap between the two parties is too big, so there is no room for Jia Rong to resist.

Jia Rong was at the clan school at this time, discussing matters with Lian Er who came quietly.

Speaking of which, Lian Er was lucky. Jia Rong avenged him for being ambushed and injured, which was quite impressive.

After such a long time, the flesh and skin wounds on his body have naturally healed to some extent.

Since his health has almost healed, he has been going to the nugget shop more and more frequently. Even though his childhood sweetheart Wang Xifeng is about to pass away, he doesn't care too much.

There is a saying that money is a man’s courage!

With a lot of money in his hand, and having passed the exam in front of the old lady and the housekeeper's wife, Lian Er's whole spirit changed...
