Amnesty of the Red Chamber
Work related
As for the banquet, if the guests notice something, the entire Rongguo Mansion will be ashamed to go out.It is enough for the boss to be so disregarding the overall situation and lack of sense of style.Alas, it's also my fault that she indulged her eldest son in the past. She originally thought that he would grow up better, but she didn't expect him to become even worse.Look, she said at the beginning that the title should be given to Zheng'er!
Mrs. Wang also got the news, she gritted her teeth secretly, her heart fluttered with joy and anger.The happy thing is that the more the eldest room is a demon, the more unwelcome the old lady will be, and the second room's status will be strengthened; the angry thing is that her extraordinary Baoyu, who was doing a good job of catching Zhou banquet, was disturbed, and finally the banquet The incompleteness is simply disgraceful.If she didn't add fuel to the old lady's anger, how could she make such a fuss.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look towards Mrs. Xing, and the corners of her lips curled up mockingly.So what if you have a rank of commandment on your body?Coming from a small family, he just couldn't get on the stage.She didn't even look at what kind of stuff was around her, and she was so complacent, she was so ignorant.Thinking that her Wang family is booming, although she is only a sixth-rank security person, let's see who she makes friends with.snort!
Jia Yuanchun enjoys being the eldest granddaughter of the Rongguo Mansion.She is 13 years old this year, and it is time to see others. Today, she met many wives with her grandmother and mother, and received a lot of compliments.After all, she was still a little girl, so beautiful in her heart.After finally changing his clothes, he got out and went back to his room to catch his breath, "Where's the crispy cheese I wanted, hasn't it been delivered yet?"
The eldest maid rushed over with her zither in her arms, and whispered to her master, "Girl, this servant is about to report to you. The pastry cheese you ordered...was taken by the elder to the second girl. But it's no wonder that the kitchen, the elder brought Someone smashed the kitchen, and I heard that there are still two soups left at the banquet, and the stewards are almost crying to death, but it’s useless.”
Yuan Chun raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said in a coquettish voice, "What's the matter? Why did uncle act like this at the banquet at home today? It's really..." She didn't say what it was, but the look of contempt in her eyes fully explained The incomplete meaning of her words.
"It's not over yet," Baoqin lowered his eyelids, and continued, "I heard that Steward Lai went to the kitchen to check, and somehow he offended the old man. Now that he's tied up, even his house will be confiscated. .And ah, I heard that the maidservant had confiscated Wang Momo's house earlier. Wang Momo is the nanny of the second girl."
"It's really strange. Uncle actually met Housekeeper Lai. Hmph, who cares, with grandma and Nanny Lai around, I'm afraid Uncle won't be able to please. Let's just wait and see." He stared, and then sneered gloatingly, "As for the nanny of the second sister, a slave who doesn't do her best deserves to be punished. It's just that uncle still has a heart."
Hearing what she said, she understood that she had known that Yingchun's nanny was not a good person, but she was just watching a joke, and had no intention of standing out for her cousin.For Jia Yuanchun, their second wife is a family, and the people around Rongguo Mansion, including the old lady, are all outsiders in comparison.
All the women in the back house got the news, let alone Jia Zheng, Jia Zhu and his son.The two looked at each other, and couldn't help but secretly resented the elder brother (uncle) for being ignorant and incapable of helping them, not to mention, but still going all out to make trouble.Even if there is something inappropriate, you have to wait until the guests have left to deal with the servants.In case something bad is said, it's not the father and son who are ashamed.
"Send someone to tell the old man that there are guests at home today, so don't cause trouble." At this time, the banquet is coming to an end, and Jia Zheng will see off the guests later, so he dare not leave easily, so he has to tell Zhou Rui One sound.At any rate, he sent the guests away first, and then asked the old lady to settle accounts with his elder brother.In the final analysis, Jia Zheng is like a baby who has not been weaned, and no mother can rely on her heart to support her.
Jia Zhu is only 15 years old now, and he started school last year, and was appointed as his son-in-law by the Imperial College Jijiu.He called himself a young talent, so he naturally looked down upon his incompetent uncle, and even his own father, Jia Zheng, was somewhat contemptuous.
He didn't care which servant his uncle dealt with or what absurd things he did, but he cared about his own reputation.A proud and self-proclaimed young man, he was quite depressed that such an uncle in his family was holding him back.Alas, that's all, just wait for him to be successful in high school in the future, and then take care of Lian'er and the others more.
The old man didn't know what each of them was thinking. He was holding the little girl in his arms, and the eldest son was sitting beside him. He was so beautiful that he almost burst out with joy.Once upon a time, he also "hug left and right" like this, but this time is the most satisfying and fulfilling.His son and daughter are all his treasures.He can be regarded as the prodigal son turned back, and he must live up to this rebirth.
"Father, what are you going to do with Mr. Lai's housekeeper? Have you really sent someone to copy Lai's house? Nanny Lai is the old lady's confidant. Will there be any problem? The old lady will definitely be angry, you But I almost messed up Baoyu's Zhouzhou banquet..." Jia Xiaolian hugged the fruit his father gave him, chattering worriedly, like a little old man.
"What are you afraid of? I have daddy here." Compared to his son's worries, Mr. Xi didn't care, and waved his hand carelessly, "Lian'er, daddy has been comprehending these truths for many years. Now, there is nothing to let go of.”
He waved away the servants who were serving in the room, and said in a low voice: "Lian'er, in the final analysis, the real masters of this Rongguo Mansion should be your father and me. Don't care about anyone else, including the old lady, that's all. The name is not right. As long as your father and I can stand up by ourselves, no one else can hold me down. In the past, it was my father who was blind, and you can just watch in the future."
"There are no outsiders here. To put it mildly, it's like being in the imperial palace. After all, the world belongs to the emperor. No matter how powerful the queen mother is, she can't sit on the dragon chair, can she?" Talking about the royal family, these words It's not that it's not very respectful, it's just a bit treasonous, so Jia She immediately said recklessly: "I said so, and you heard it like this, I don't recognize it when I say it outside."
While the father and son were talking, a maid outside replied: "Master, the mandarin duck girl from the old lady's side is here, and she said that she would like you to come over."
"What is supposed to come will come." Jia She stood up holding Yingchun, and even shook the little girl, "How about it, son, do you want to go with me to see the majesty of your father?"
The seventh round of the preemptive strike, Mrs. Wang made a fool of himself and stepped forward, don't worry
"Old lady, the eldest master, the second master Lian and the second girl are here." Yuanyang is still a little girl less than ten years old at this time, but she has already taken the role of a second-class maid to do some errand work.The old lady liked her very much, and she was already being trained as a confidant maid.
Looking at such a little girl, Jia Amnesty couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.Back then, I didn't know what I was thinking, how could I be interested in such a girl's film, but now that I think about it, I am simply an old man.Master She castigated himself deeply, and then let go of this matter. He simply won't be obsessed with women in this life, and the two of them will never have anything to do with each other again.
In the upper room, Shi Taijun sat in the middle with a serious face, the two children from the second room stood on both sides, Jia Zheng and his wife sat on the lower left chair in turn, and Mrs. Xing sat alone on the second lower right chair.As soon as they saw Jia She and the other three coming in, several people looked at them, but only Mrs. Xing stood up, and the others didn't move.
Turning a blind eye to these angry or mocking eyes, Jia Amnesty still embraced her daughter Yingchun, and only slightly bowed to Shi Taijun as a salute.Jia Lian followed him in a daze, but in the blink of an eye she didn't follow suit, and greeted the old lady and others respectfully.His father came here to find fault, so he can be rude, he can't let people catch his pigtails and criticize him, and hold his father back.
"Second brother, start for brother." Master Xi didn't wait for the people in the room to react, and he preemptively kicked Jia Zheng's chair leg when he came up, "Do you still understand the superiority and inferiority? Now, when you have your elder brother and sister-in-law, this is the place for you two to sit on the left? Have you read all the books in your dog's stomach? And the second family, your Wang family is too uneducated, right? "
"Ms. Xing is my wife, your eldest sister-in-law, and a first-rank imperial order conferred by the court. You are a small sixth-rank Anren, how big a face do you have, dare to sit on her honor? Don't you?" Tell me, you can’t even tell the left from the right. Hurry up and drive away, don’t you see your brother and sister-in-law are still standing, two unruly things.” Master Xi spoke super fast, grabbed the braid and scolded .
Jia Zheng didn't expect that in front of so many servants, the boss would touch him and scold him so badly that he was in a bad mood.I saw that his face was flushed red, and the veins on his forehead popped up. He didn't know whether he was ashamed or angry, but he couldn't say anything to refute.This dynasty regards the left as the most respected, and he has indeed neglected this point.
If Jia Zheng was still a bit introspective, Mrs. Wang would only be full of anger.As the eldest daughter of the Jinling royal family, she has been spoiled and spoiled since she was a child. Whether she was a girl or after she got married, has she ever been humiliated like this? !What's more, the person who pointed at her nose and scolded her was Jia She, whom she had always looked down upon. If she could bear it, then she would really be eating fast and reciting Buddha for so many years.
Jia She's scolding, but moved a person.Mrs. Xing had a sore nose and red eye circles, so she couldn't shed tears.This was the first time that someone opened eyes for her, and this person was her husband.Originally, she was already desperate for the future. Her mother-in-law didn't care about her husband, didn't love her and had no children. She just wanted to grab more money so that she could count on someone to rely on in the future.
But she didn't expect that her husband gave her such a big surprise today.Of course, she also understood that Jia Amnesty was probably trying to find fault with the second wife, but she couldn't keep her happy.Ever since she married into the Rongguo Mansion, she has not enjoyed the honor of being a big wife for a day. Everyone in this mansion, from the master to the servants, treats her like a puddle of mud.
Looking at the couple with ugly faces, Mrs. Xing suddenly felt elated.Yes, you look down on me, but you can't look down on my identity.What identity?Sister-in-law!Yipin Gaoming!No matter how good your family background is, so what, so what if you are the original spouse?You don't even have eyes with your family, and you married a famous man and didn't move.Mrs. Xing is proud!
Jia Zheng, who was both ashamed and annoyed, stood up abruptly and wanted to step aside, but the corner of his eyes glanced at Mrs. Wang who was still sitting comfortably, and he became even more annoyed instantly.He grabbed Mrs. Wang's sleeve and dragged her up desperately.He simply didn't want to stay in this place anymore. When he thought that Jia She's words would spread today, he felt ashamed and his tall and dignified image collapsed.
It happened that Mrs. Wang was focusing on Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Xing's luck, secretly thinking about how to add fuel to the flames later, making the old lady even more angry, and making Da Fang never recover.She was unprepared for Jia Zheng's violent yank on her, and Mrs. Wang's body fell to one side. Everyone heard a "click", and Mrs. Wang immediately screamed and fell down.
This appearance of her startled everyone, even Mr. She unconsciously took two steps back to show that he was staying away, don't rely on me if something goes wrong.Jia Zheng was also dumbfounded there, he didn't expect that his lethality would be so great, and he didn't know where Mrs. Wang was injured, so he stood there in a daze at a loss.
He was in a daze, but no one else, and the room suddenly became chaotic.Jia Zhu and Yuan Chun rushed forward with many maids, scrambling to express condolences to the second wife.After asking for a long time in a hurry, I realized that Mrs. Wang had sprained her ankle, and now she was in severe pain, and she didn't know if she hurt her bones.Seeing her pale face, the two sons and daughters burst into tears.
"My lord, we are all one family. It's just a matter of seating. Why are you so angry? Madam always comes here to say hello to the old lady on weekdays. I think she's used to this seat. Today, the eldest lady is here, and the wife is here for a while. I didn't expect it to happen. When the wife comes back to her senses, she will admit her mistake to the old lady and the eldest lady. Look at you, what are you doing..."
Looking at Jia Yuanchun, who was crying like pear blossoms and raining, but uttered clearly and coherently, Mrs. Xing couldn't help curling her lips.Look, it's on the eye drops.She almost didn't say clearly that she didn't respect the old lady, and she never came to pay her respects to the old lady, so once in a while, people forgot to give her a seat.After all, she is the daughter taught by the Wang family!
"Small things? Since ancient times, there have been no small things in the rules. This is in this mansion, and I just scolded them and let them know their mistakes and correct them. If this matter is put in there, sitting in the wrong seat is really a small matter. Hmph Throwing away my life!" Jia She sneered, pointed in the direction of the Forbidden City with his finger, and shook his head at this niece in his heart.
Desperately drilling into the palace, it lasted for 30 to [-] years, except for the name of a concubine, in the end I got nothing.Moreover, her title is also strange, she is both a female official and a palace concubine, and the Grand Master Amnesty did not understand what the emperor thought of her when he arrived.What's more, she is not a favored person, otherwise she would not have said such words when visiting her relatives, Jia She even doubted whether she had been favored or not.
"Besides, you don't have the right to interrupt when adults are talking. Hmph, I don't know who taught the rules." Just as Jia Yuanchun was stunned by his words, Elder Xi resolutely made up the knife.Master, can I talk to anyone? !
With a crisp "crack", the whole upper room fell silent, and even Mrs. Wang forgot to call out the pain.Jia Amnesty raised his eyes to look at the "perpetrator", when Shi Taijun's face sank, and his eyes shot at him like knives.The big boss appeared, and as soon as he appeared, he was in a state of berserk, and the great master Xie also entered the fighting state instantly.
"Yuanyang, go and get someone to ask for a doctor for the second wife; Zhu'er and Yuan Chun quickly bring someone to help your mother sit down, and don't touch her feet again; everyone else should step back first." Unaffected by her, he neither kowtowed to admit his mistake, nor flinched and blamed, and his complexion became more gloomy.But there were already enough jokes in the Rongguo Mansion today, she barely suppressed the anger in her chest, and sent the servants away first.
Jia Yuanchun is very strong, he helped Mrs. Wang and wanted her to sit back in her original position.Her mother had already hurt her foot, so she couldn't believe that the uncle would dare to push her down.The idea is good, but it is difficult to realize.Jia She glanced over coldly, and the hair on her whole body stood on end as if she was being targeted by a ferocious beast.The condensed evil spirit on the battlefield cannot be resisted by a little girl like Yuan Chun.
It was the first time seeing Mrs. Wang in such a miserable state, and Mrs. Xing wanted to die laughing. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, she would have laughed three times, no, three hundred times!The woman has always looked condescending in front of her, and she can't put on airs.Haha, this time she made such a big ugliness, let's see how noble she will be in the future.Also, she can't wait for the mouths of the people in the Rongguo Mansion...
At this point, Shi Taijun could hold his breath, and waited until Jia She and his family were seated before he said calmly, "Hey, tell me, do you really think that Rongguo Mansion is your home? This Rongguo Mansion has lost face, is it because your face is good-looking? There is a joke in this mansion, is it because your face is radiant? Come on, our mother and daughter have a heart-to-heart relationship today, tell me. "
"Why did the old lady say that?" Jia She was surprised when he heard the words, and his expression was so real that it was fake, "Grandmother once told me that I am the eldest grandson of her old man and the heir of this Rongguo Mansion; When it was passed on to me, it was also said that I will be the head of the family in the future. If this is the case, how could I not want my family? Old lady, are you kidding me? "
If he had been at this age in his previous life, Jia Amnesty might have been stupidly grateful when he heard Shi Taijun's words, thinking that his mother really wanted to tell him what was in his heart.But now, heh...
Hearing that Jia Amnesty spoke of one heir and one head of the family, Shi Taijun, Jia Zheng, and Mrs. Wang all looked very unhappy.Is this guy reminding them that doves occupy the magpie's nest? !I don't even think about what kind of guy he is, if this huge Rongguo Mansion is handed over to them and his wife, they will be down and out early, their homes will be destroyed and everyone will die!
Shi Taijun suppressed his anger, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Then do you know what day it is today? Do you know who are the guests at the house? Do you know how many people will laugh if the banquet is not thoughtful? Do you know how many years of your family's clean reputation will be ruined by your willful and reckless behavior?" Although he decided to endure it, Shi Taijun still couldn't bear it, and his voice became louder and louder, and at the end he was already questioning loudly.
"What day? Isn't it Baoyu's first birthday? Which child can never live it. Speaking of this, I have to blame the old lady for a few words. As a grandmother, you are too partial. My Lian'er is The eldest son and grandson of the family will also inherit the title in the future. What did he do when he caught Zhou? It seems that he set up a few tables at home. At that time, he said that he was afraid of ruining the child's luck, so he would not be afraid to come to Baoyu? Old lady , You are wrong, you don’t love Baoyu too much.”
"What are you talking about? Baoyu was born with jade. This is a great fortune, a great blessing, and anyone can compare with it?" Shi Taijun was choked by this bastard son. She thought he was going to use Jia Lian to catch Zhou. Talking about something, I didn't expect that this wicked person would change the subject and almost make her unable to answer.
Jia Amnesty didn't refute her, instead he smiled, "Then I'd like to see how this child's fortune came about. Let me tell you, a son of a sixth-rank chief doesn't need such great fortune. Mr. Two, you have to be careful that your son's fortune is too big to catch people's eyes, if someone passes it up as an auspicious sign, maybe your son will become a decoration in some palace."
"This..." Hearing what he said, Shi Taijun and Jia Zheng also trembled in their hearts, they couldn't help but look at each other, and then they both looked at Mrs. Wang.They were happy to patronize Baoyu's piece of jade, and didn't think about it in other places.Moreover, the handwriting on the jade has nothing to do with the court, so they didn't care.However, I'm really afraid that people will be far-fetched and framed.After all, there are quite a few people who were inexplicably convicted of writing in this dynasty.
"Old lady, you've been tired all day, so don't say those meandering words. Didn't you just want to ask me, why did you smash the kitchen? It's very simple, they don't work well, they don't serve well, let I'm not happy. My master is not happy anymore, how can that make them happy? But don't worry, the old lady, it's just a kitchen, and it won't let everyone go hungry. "
Master Xi patted his forehead again, and suddenly said: "Oh, there is also the matter of Lai Da. That dog slave's heart has been indulged too much, and he doesn't even look down on his master. He should be taught a lesson. Since the old lady is on If you don’t worry about your age, if you don’t care about these guys, then I have to do it myself. Don’t worry, that dog has just been trained by me, and it will definitely change its mind.”
"In addition, I heard people say that Lai Da corrupted a lot of property in the mansion, and I don't know if it's true or not. But don't worry, old lady, we would rather waste than let go. I have already ordered someone to raid his house, and it must be soon. There will be a conclusion. If the dog slave really dares to guard himself and steal, I will deal with him personally without you doing it, and I won’t make things difficult for the old lady, don’t worry.”
Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry... put your mother's heart at ease!
The eighth chapter Shi Taijun is very disappointed as a mother
"Let go..." Shi Taijun clenched his fists violently, forcing himself to swallow the rest of the words.After so many years, it was the first time she discovered that the boss was so eloquent and forceful.At this moment, I can't care about self-cultivation, and opened my mouth to roar: "What nonsense! Is our family the kind of unreasonable family? You dare to copy other people's house without any evidence?!"
Shi Taijun's lung capacity was a problem, and he felt chest tightness and shortness of breath when he roared, and his eyes turned black.She had no choice but to slow down her tone, and continued to condemn: "The kitchen is so busy today, but it's just serving later, so it's worth smashing the kitchen? You don't care about your reputation outside, but can you take care of it?" Are you taking care of me and Zheng'er's face?"
"Zheng'er is an official in the court, and he is cautious all day long, as if walking on thin ice, for fear that something will go wrong, and someone will catch him. He will have no hope of official career in the future, and will cause the family to lose power. But you, a good banquet is exactly the right thing to do. When expanding your network and getting in touch with relatives, you didn't help him in the front, but you dragged you behind. Xi'er, you let my mother down so much!"
"Pfft..." Jia She couldn't help but sneered when he heard the words, looked at Jia Zheng with ridicule in his eyes, and jokingly said, "Second brother, is a small boss so important in the Ministry of Industry? It's worth your caution, Walking on eggshells? I know, you are just a low-rank official; but I don’t know, after hearing this, I still think you are a first-rank official.”
"Let's talk about your official career, I thought you knew yourself a long time ago and gave up hope. Tell me about you, you have been enlightened since you were three years old, and you have been studying until you are twenty. Don't talk about being a Jinshi and a scholar. You are even a child. I haven't passed the exam. Back then, I heard people outside saying that you loved reading, and my face was blushing for you. If it wasn't for fear that you would continue to embarrass yourself, would you have passed the test as a father?"
Jia Amnesty didn't argue with Shi Taijun head-on, so no matter what, he was a mother, but he didn't have any scruples about pointing the gun at Jia Zheng.He used to be stupid with his mouth, but it's different now.This was practiced with those ruthless soldiers in the border towns. At least Jia Zheng really couldn't stand it, and his face immediately turned red and black.
"Father gave up face and the emperor's favor for you, but look what you have done? You have been sitting in the position of chief executive for ten years, and you still manage the most unimportant documents. When will you grow up? Second child, it's not easy for the old lady, she gave up face for you back then, and won't leave the main hall, so you should love her too."
"Crack!" Shi Taijun couldn't hold back, and smashed another teacup.Listen to what this scoundrel has to say, it's because she blames her for being shameless and letting Zheng'er's family live in the main hall.Is this still what a son should say? !Her face turned red, and she pointed at Jia She with trembling fingers, "You, you bastard, kneel down for me."
Master Xi held the little girl in his arms firmly, and asked slowly: "Why did the old lady say that? Could it be that I said something wrong? Didn't the second child fail the entrance examination for Tongsheng? Didn’t it be said that he is good at studying? Isn’t he a sixth-rank official? Isn’t he not promoted for ten years? Doesn’t he live in Rongxi Hall? Does he really have skin and face?”
"Zheng'er is your own younger brother. Do you speak like that? Jia She, do you really dislike our mother and son, and wish to drive us all out? What's wrong with your brother living in Rongxi Hall? As long as I, an old lady I haven't died yet, whoever I let live in the main hall can live there. Don't feel wronged, Rongxi Hall is the main hall of the Duke's Mansion, you are not worthy to live there."
Shi Taijun raised his eyebrows, and his well-maintained face was full of anger, "I won't talk nonsense with you today, and the money for cleaning the kitchen will come from your private house. If you don't want to, Zheng's daughter-in-law, from tomorrow onwards There is no need to allocate monthly money to the big house, and we will talk about when the deduction is enough. In addition, for these three months, there is no need to worry about the big house’s food, let them solve it by themselves.”
"Also, let the steward Lai go immediately, and call back the slaves who ransacked the house. Zheng'er, go and see if Lai Da is hurt later, and order the doctor to take a good look at it .Moreover, let’s see what losses the Lai family has suffered. Make a list and let them double the compensation when you get the big house. If the big house doesn’t pay for all the expenses, they will be deducted from the monthly silver.”
Mrs. Wang originally lowered her head, but when she heard the words, the corners of her mouth curled up, and she nodded hurriedly.Oh, this time you know how powerful the old thing is.I don't have any skills, and I want to provoke authority, I just don't know how to live or die.He even dared to mention Rongxitang, and he didn't think that it was the old man's rebellion. Whoever mentions it will die.Back then, she wished everyone would forget what she did with no dignity.
As for the words that Jia Zheng was scolded and humiliated, Mrs. Wang had no objection, after all, what he said was the truth.She decided to marry Jia Zheng when she heard that Jia Zheng was a talented and motivated man.But who knows that this is a waste only when we get along with each other.Poor her dignified daughter of the royal family, she has only a sixth-rank imperial order, she is losing money.
Shi Taijun felt that he was gaining prestige, so he took a breath, and said earnestly: "Nurse Lai is my dowry and has served me by my side for decades. I know her character very well. Lai Da is also in my opinion." Those who grow up are definitely not the kind of people who fill their own pockets and entrap the master's family. The most important thing for a family like ours is to employ people with no doubts, so that the servants can be loyal to work."
"I don't want to have a second chance of ransacking the house without any evidence." Shi Taijun shot Jia Amnesty who was sitting peacefully with his sharp eyes, and pointedly said: "If anyone dares to commit the crime again in the future, Don't blame my old lady for not saving face for him, opening a ancestral hall, asking for family law, let him go and apologize to his ancestors."
In fact, Shi Taijun is not so sure whether the Lai family has poached the corner of the Rongguo Mansion.However, Mr. and Mrs. Lai are her confidantes and right-hand men.She wants to continue to control the overall situation of the family, but she cannot do without these two, she cannot give up yet.Besides, she thinks that she has never treated the Lai family badly, and she doesn't think they can become big moths.When it comes to judging people, Shi Taijun is somewhat confident.
"Old lady, Madam Lai is in a hurry to see you." A maid's exclamation came from outside, "Hey, Mama, what are you doing?"
Jia Amnesty was watching their performance, but he was delighted when he heard this movement.It seems that Lin Zhixiao and the others have already succeeded, but they don't know what they copied from Lai's house. After thinking about it, Mr. Xi is quite looking forward to it.As for what Shi Taijun said about giving out money and deducting money from the moon, he didn't care at all.He would definitely not give out the silver; as for the withheld silver, he would have to spit it out sooner or later.
Let them be proud for two days first, and when he makes a move, the Rongguo Mansion may decide who will speak.Jia Amnesty believed that as long as he went to investigate, there would be a pigtail waiting for him to catch.This woman is greedy and bold, but she is not cautious in the future, so it is a good time to deal with her.It can't be said that the burden of separating the two families still falls on her.
"Let her in quickly." Shi Taijun snorted coldly at Jia She, and then called out Nanny Lai in a gentle voice.When she thought about it, Nanny Lai must have come to complain. She was waiting for the bitter master to come to her door so that she could show Jia She a little bit more.
"Yes, the old lady is busy now, so I'll go back first. Ma'am, Lian'er, you also follow me, let's go to the restaurant at night." How could Jia She have the time to listen to Nanny Lai's crying, and he had to hurry Go back and see how many private houses have been added.After all, regardless of Shi Taijun's reaction, he lifted the curtain and strode away.
"Master, please spare our family." Nanny Lai bumped into Jia She, knelt down again with a thud, grabbed his robe and kowtowed, "If we get in your way, please tell me , our family will leave immediately, and dare not appear in front of you again. It's just...just, I can't bear the old lady..."
Jia She glared, and shouted: "Hurry up and pull her away, the old lady inside is waiting for her to reply. Nanny Lai, master, I don't know what I copied from your house, what are you doing? But Don't talk about forgiveness, if you have done nothing wrong, I will not punish you; but if you have done something wrong, then there are rules in the house, and I will only act according to the rules."
He looked at the choked woman with a smile, bent slightly and said, "Hehe, looking at you like this, I'm afraid you have a lot of good things. Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you. If you and your son are not greedy, I will not be greedy." You can’t make such a windfall. Don’t worry, just go for this, and the master will not kill you.” The Lai family is actually a family of good deeds, and Master She has kindness towards them.
"Hahaha..." Seeing Jia Amnesty laughing and walking away, Nanny Lai's heart sank even more.She is a person close to the old lady, and she is much more respectable than ordinary servants since she was born. Even the masters of the next generation will give her face.Coupled with the fact that she has been raised at home for the past few years, and she has lived the life of an old lady who serves her servants, she thought that she would live like this for the rest of her life.
But who knew that misfortune would fall from the sky, and the old man would be in trouble all of a sudden.This incident was so sudden that their family was not prepared at all, and everything would have been copied.If some news had been received in advance, those things would have been sent to the countryside long ago.But now that they were all caught, thinking about the things that were copied out, Nanny Lai couldn't help but feel terrified.
It's also because Lai Da's job as a housekeeper has been so smooth in the past few years, even though he has become more courageous and dared to do anything.If some things are not copied out, even she doesn't know about them, they are things that can lose their heads.Alas, now I can only hope that this old face of hers can still be a bit decent, so that the old lady can come forward and spare them this time.
Not to mention how Nanny Lai went to Shi Taijun to cry and admit her mistakes and beg for mercy, and how to make the old lady slap her face, just say that when the four of Jia She returned to their yard, they saw a yard full of boxes. Stack up.Jia She's face changed immediately, he was happy and angry at the same time.
This is just copying a servant's house, so many things were copied out?He thought at first that the Lai family didn't have the greed in the future. When they built the Grand View Garden, they dared to get one for themselves.But now it seems that his understanding of human nature is still too shallow.Just this eye-catching sweep is worth half of his private house.Heh, this knife was slaughtered happily!
The Ninth Chapter: Ren Jia pardoned his life and squeezed Shui Zhi Xia He to plan for the Rongqing Hall
"Tell me, what are these things?" Jia Amnesty had several boxes in front of him, and below that was Lai Da who was kneeling there.These things are not ordinary, not only are the items in the public treasury of the Rongguo Mansion, but some of them are actually the dowry of Jia She's original wife, the Zhou family.That's all, what made Jia She angry the most was...there were actually two things in it that were bestowed by the former emperor in the early years.
When the reality is not in front of him, Lai Da always takes chances. Maybe his mother begged the old lady to stop the old man.Especially when the old man was called away by the old lady, he had already seen hope.But now, all hopes have been shattered by reality.This is not only the Elder's problem, as for these two gifts from the imperial court, even the old lady can't spare him.
This is the end of the Lai family!Not only him, just now he saw that his wife, son and others had been tied up, and he didn't know how the Elder Master planned to deal with them.Fortunately, his old lady went to the old lady to intercede, but she didn't know if it would be useful.Thinking of this, he couldn't help hating the kitchen, it's nothing to provoke this poor guy to do, but he suffers this kind of trouble because he is troubled.
In fact, he didn't even think about it, if it wasn't for the fact that he, the big housekeeper, didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the big house, so that the people in the house followed suit, how could he be seized by the pardoned master.Moreover, if it wasn't for his own extremely long hands, which dared to get everything into his house, Jia Amnesty wouldn't be sure.It's all self-inflicted, and you have to blame others.
"Master Lai, do you think it's better for the master to send your family to the government, or to beat him to death? You are also the housekeeper of the house, and you always deal with people on weekdays. Which method do you think is better?" Better?" Jia She was playing with a stone as red as blood in his hand.
Mrs. Wang also got the news, she gritted her teeth secretly, her heart fluttered with joy and anger.The happy thing is that the more the eldest room is a demon, the more unwelcome the old lady will be, and the second room's status will be strengthened; the angry thing is that her extraordinary Baoyu, who was doing a good job of catching Zhou banquet, was disturbed, and finally the banquet The incompleteness is simply disgraceful.If she didn't add fuel to the old lady's anger, how could she make such a fuss.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look towards Mrs. Xing, and the corners of her lips curled up mockingly.So what if you have a rank of commandment on your body?Coming from a small family, he just couldn't get on the stage.She didn't even look at what kind of stuff was around her, and she was so complacent, she was so ignorant.Thinking that her Wang family is booming, although she is only a sixth-rank security person, let's see who she makes friends with.snort!
Jia Yuanchun enjoys being the eldest granddaughter of the Rongguo Mansion.She is 13 years old this year, and it is time to see others. Today, she met many wives with her grandmother and mother, and received a lot of compliments.After all, she was still a little girl, so beautiful in her heart.After finally changing his clothes, he got out and went back to his room to catch his breath, "Where's the crispy cheese I wanted, hasn't it been delivered yet?"
The eldest maid rushed over with her zither in her arms, and whispered to her master, "Girl, this servant is about to report to you. The pastry cheese you ordered...was taken by the elder to the second girl. But it's no wonder that the kitchen, the elder brought Someone smashed the kitchen, and I heard that there are still two soups left at the banquet, and the stewards are almost crying to death, but it’s useless.”
Yuan Chun raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said in a coquettish voice, "What's the matter? Why did uncle act like this at the banquet at home today? It's really..." She didn't say what it was, but the look of contempt in her eyes fully explained The incomplete meaning of her words.
"It's not over yet," Baoqin lowered his eyelids, and continued, "I heard that Steward Lai went to the kitchen to check, and somehow he offended the old man. Now that he's tied up, even his house will be confiscated. .And ah, I heard that the maidservant had confiscated Wang Momo's house earlier. Wang Momo is the nanny of the second girl."
"It's really strange. Uncle actually met Housekeeper Lai. Hmph, who cares, with grandma and Nanny Lai around, I'm afraid Uncle won't be able to please. Let's just wait and see." He stared, and then sneered gloatingly, "As for the nanny of the second sister, a slave who doesn't do her best deserves to be punished. It's just that uncle still has a heart."
Hearing what she said, she understood that she had known that Yingchun's nanny was not a good person, but she was just watching a joke, and had no intention of standing out for her cousin.For Jia Yuanchun, their second wife is a family, and the people around Rongguo Mansion, including the old lady, are all outsiders in comparison.
All the women in the back house got the news, let alone Jia Zheng, Jia Zhu and his son.The two looked at each other, and couldn't help but secretly resented the elder brother (uncle) for being ignorant and incapable of helping them, not to mention, but still going all out to make trouble.Even if there is something inappropriate, you have to wait until the guests have left to deal with the servants.In case something bad is said, it's not the father and son who are ashamed.
"Send someone to tell the old man that there are guests at home today, so don't cause trouble." At this time, the banquet is coming to an end, and Jia Zheng will see off the guests later, so he dare not leave easily, so he has to tell Zhou Rui One sound.At any rate, he sent the guests away first, and then asked the old lady to settle accounts with his elder brother.In the final analysis, Jia Zheng is like a baby who has not been weaned, and no mother can rely on her heart to support her.
Jia Zhu is only 15 years old now, and he started school last year, and was appointed as his son-in-law by the Imperial College Jijiu.He called himself a young talent, so he naturally looked down upon his incompetent uncle, and even his own father, Jia Zheng, was somewhat contemptuous.
He didn't care which servant his uncle dealt with or what absurd things he did, but he cared about his own reputation.A proud and self-proclaimed young man, he was quite depressed that such an uncle in his family was holding him back.Alas, that's all, just wait for him to be successful in high school in the future, and then take care of Lian'er and the others more.
The old man didn't know what each of them was thinking. He was holding the little girl in his arms, and the eldest son was sitting beside him. He was so beautiful that he almost burst out with joy.Once upon a time, he also "hug left and right" like this, but this time is the most satisfying and fulfilling.His son and daughter are all his treasures.He can be regarded as the prodigal son turned back, and he must live up to this rebirth.
"Father, what are you going to do with Mr. Lai's housekeeper? Have you really sent someone to copy Lai's house? Nanny Lai is the old lady's confidant. Will there be any problem? The old lady will definitely be angry, you But I almost messed up Baoyu's Zhouzhou banquet..." Jia Xiaolian hugged the fruit his father gave him, chattering worriedly, like a little old man.
"What are you afraid of? I have daddy here." Compared to his son's worries, Mr. Xi didn't care, and waved his hand carelessly, "Lian'er, daddy has been comprehending these truths for many years. Now, there is nothing to let go of.”
He waved away the servants who were serving in the room, and said in a low voice: "Lian'er, in the final analysis, the real masters of this Rongguo Mansion should be your father and me. Don't care about anyone else, including the old lady, that's all. The name is not right. As long as your father and I can stand up by ourselves, no one else can hold me down. In the past, it was my father who was blind, and you can just watch in the future."
"There are no outsiders here. To put it mildly, it's like being in the imperial palace. After all, the world belongs to the emperor. No matter how powerful the queen mother is, she can't sit on the dragon chair, can she?" Talking about the royal family, these words It's not that it's not very respectful, it's just a bit treasonous, so Jia She immediately said recklessly: "I said so, and you heard it like this, I don't recognize it when I say it outside."
While the father and son were talking, a maid outside replied: "Master, the mandarin duck girl from the old lady's side is here, and she said that she would like you to come over."
"What is supposed to come will come." Jia She stood up holding Yingchun, and even shook the little girl, "How about it, son, do you want to go with me to see the majesty of your father?"
The seventh round of the preemptive strike, Mrs. Wang made a fool of himself and stepped forward, don't worry
"Old lady, the eldest master, the second master Lian and the second girl are here." Yuanyang is still a little girl less than ten years old at this time, but she has already taken the role of a second-class maid to do some errand work.The old lady liked her very much, and she was already being trained as a confidant maid.
Looking at such a little girl, Jia Amnesty couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.Back then, I didn't know what I was thinking, how could I be interested in such a girl's film, but now that I think about it, I am simply an old man.Master She castigated himself deeply, and then let go of this matter. He simply won't be obsessed with women in this life, and the two of them will never have anything to do with each other again.
In the upper room, Shi Taijun sat in the middle with a serious face, the two children from the second room stood on both sides, Jia Zheng and his wife sat on the lower left chair in turn, and Mrs. Xing sat alone on the second lower right chair.As soon as they saw Jia She and the other three coming in, several people looked at them, but only Mrs. Xing stood up, and the others didn't move.
Turning a blind eye to these angry or mocking eyes, Jia Amnesty still embraced her daughter Yingchun, and only slightly bowed to Shi Taijun as a salute.Jia Lian followed him in a daze, but in the blink of an eye she didn't follow suit, and greeted the old lady and others respectfully.His father came here to find fault, so he can be rude, he can't let people catch his pigtails and criticize him, and hold his father back.
"Second brother, start for brother." Master Xi didn't wait for the people in the room to react, and he preemptively kicked Jia Zheng's chair leg when he came up, "Do you still understand the superiority and inferiority? Now, when you have your elder brother and sister-in-law, this is the place for you two to sit on the left? Have you read all the books in your dog's stomach? And the second family, your Wang family is too uneducated, right? "
"Ms. Xing is my wife, your eldest sister-in-law, and a first-rank imperial order conferred by the court. You are a small sixth-rank Anren, how big a face do you have, dare to sit on her honor? Don't you?" Tell me, you can’t even tell the left from the right. Hurry up and drive away, don’t you see your brother and sister-in-law are still standing, two unruly things.” Master Xi spoke super fast, grabbed the braid and scolded .
Jia Zheng didn't expect that in front of so many servants, the boss would touch him and scold him so badly that he was in a bad mood.I saw that his face was flushed red, and the veins on his forehead popped up. He didn't know whether he was ashamed or angry, but he couldn't say anything to refute.This dynasty regards the left as the most respected, and he has indeed neglected this point.
If Jia Zheng was still a bit introspective, Mrs. Wang would only be full of anger.As the eldest daughter of the Jinling royal family, she has been spoiled and spoiled since she was a child. Whether she was a girl or after she got married, has she ever been humiliated like this? !What's more, the person who pointed at her nose and scolded her was Jia She, whom she had always looked down upon. If she could bear it, then she would really be eating fast and reciting Buddha for so many years.
Jia She's scolding, but moved a person.Mrs. Xing had a sore nose and red eye circles, so she couldn't shed tears.This was the first time that someone opened eyes for her, and this person was her husband.Originally, she was already desperate for the future. Her mother-in-law didn't care about her husband, didn't love her and had no children. She just wanted to grab more money so that she could count on someone to rely on in the future.
But she didn't expect that her husband gave her such a big surprise today.Of course, she also understood that Jia Amnesty was probably trying to find fault with the second wife, but she couldn't keep her happy.Ever since she married into the Rongguo Mansion, she has not enjoyed the honor of being a big wife for a day. Everyone in this mansion, from the master to the servants, treats her like a puddle of mud.
Looking at the couple with ugly faces, Mrs. Xing suddenly felt elated.Yes, you look down on me, but you can't look down on my identity.What identity?Sister-in-law!Yipin Gaoming!No matter how good your family background is, so what, so what if you are the original spouse?You don't even have eyes with your family, and you married a famous man and didn't move.Mrs. Xing is proud!
Jia Zheng, who was both ashamed and annoyed, stood up abruptly and wanted to step aside, but the corner of his eyes glanced at Mrs. Wang who was still sitting comfortably, and he became even more annoyed instantly.He grabbed Mrs. Wang's sleeve and dragged her up desperately.He simply didn't want to stay in this place anymore. When he thought that Jia She's words would spread today, he felt ashamed and his tall and dignified image collapsed.
It happened that Mrs. Wang was focusing on Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Xing's luck, secretly thinking about how to add fuel to the flames later, making the old lady even more angry, and making Da Fang never recover.She was unprepared for Jia Zheng's violent yank on her, and Mrs. Wang's body fell to one side. Everyone heard a "click", and Mrs. Wang immediately screamed and fell down.
This appearance of her startled everyone, even Mr. She unconsciously took two steps back to show that he was staying away, don't rely on me if something goes wrong.Jia Zheng was also dumbfounded there, he didn't expect that his lethality would be so great, and he didn't know where Mrs. Wang was injured, so he stood there in a daze at a loss.
He was in a daze, but no one else, and the room suddenly became chaotic.Jia Zhu and Yuan Chun rushed forward with many maids, scrambling to express condolences to the second wife.After asking for a long time in a hurry, I realized that Mrs. Wang had sprained her ankle, and now she was in severe pain, and she didn't know if she hurt her bones.Seeing her pale face, the two sons and daughters burst into tears.
"My lord, we are all one family. It's just a matter of seating. Why are you so angry? Madam always comes here to say hello to the old lady on weekdays. I think she's used to this seat. Today, the eldest lady is here, and the wife is here for a while. I didn't expect it to happen. When the wife comes back to her senses, she will admit her mistake to the old lady and the eldest lady. Look at you, what are you doing..."
Looking at Jia Yuanchun, who was crying like pear blossoms and raining, but uttered clearly and coherently, Mrs. Xing couldn't help curling her lips.Look, it's on the eye drops.She almost didn't say clearly that she didn't respect the old lady, and she never came to pay her respects to the old lady, so once in a while, people forgot to give her a seat.After all, she is the daughter taught by the Wang family!
"Small things? Since ancient times, there have been no small things in the rules. This is in this mansion, and I just scolded them and let them know their mistakes and correct them. If this matter is put in there, sitting in the wrong seat is really a small matter. Hmph Throwing away my life!" Jia She sneered, pointed in the direction of the Forbidden City with his finger, and shook his head at this niece in his heart.
Desperately drilling into the palace, it lasted for 30 to [-] years, except for the name of a concubine, in the end I got nothing.Moreover, her title is also strange, she is both a female official and a palace concubine, and the Grand Master Amnesty did not understand what the emperor thought of her when he arrived.What's more, she is not a favored person, otherwise she would not have said such words when visiting her relatives, Jia She even doubted whether she had been favored or not.
"Besides, you don't have the right to interrupt when adults are talking. Hmph, I don't know who taught the rules." Just as Jia Yuanchun was stunned by his words, Elder Xi resolutely made up the knife.Master, can I talk to anyone? !
With a crisp "crack", the whole upper room fell silent, and even Mrs. Wang forgot to call out the pain.Jia Amnesty raised his eyes to look at the "perpetrator", when Shi Taijun's face sank, and his eyes shot at him like knives.The big boss appeared, and as soon as he appeared, he was in a state of berserk, and the great master Xie also entered the fighting state instantly.
"Yuanyang, go and get someone to ask for a doctor for the second wife; Zhu'er and Yuan Chun quickly bring someone to help your mother sit down, and don't touch her feet again; everyone else should step back first." Unaffected by her, he neither kowtowed to admit his mistake, nor flinched and blamed, and his complexion became more gloomy.But there were already enough jokes in the Rongguo Mansion today, she barely suppressed the anger in her chest, and sent the servants away first.
Jia Yuanchun is very strong, he helped Mrs. Wang and wanted her to sit back in her original position.Her mother had already hurt her foot, so she couldn't believe that the uncle would dare to push her down.The idea is good, but it is difficult to realize.Jia She glanced over coldly, and the hair on her whole body stood on end as if she was being targeted by a ferocious beast.The condensed evil spirit on the battlefield cannot be resisted by a little girl like Yuan Chun.
It was the first time seeing Mrs. Wang in such a miserable state, and Mrs. Xing wanted to die laughing. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, she would have laughed three times, no, three hundred times!The woman has always looked condescending in front of her, and she can't put on airs.Haha, this time she made such a big ugliness, let's see how noble she will be in the future.Also, she can't wait for the mouths of the people in the Rongguo Mansion...
At this point, Shi Taijun could hold his breath, and waited until Jia She and his family were seated before he said calmly, "Hey, tell me, do you really think that Rongguo Mansion is your home? This Rongguo Mansion has lost face, is it because your face is good-looking? There is a joke in this mansion, is it because your face is radiant? Come on, our mother and daughter have a heart-to-heart relationship today, tell me. "
"Why did the old lady say that?" Jia She was surprised when he heard the words, and his expression was so real that it was fake, "Grandmother once told me that I am the eldest grandson of her old man and the heir of this Rongguo Mansion; When it was passed on to me, it was also said that I will be the head of the family in the future. If this is the case, how could I not want my family? Old lady, are you kidding me? "
If he had been at this age in his previous life, Jia Amnesty might have been stupidly grateful when he heard Shi Taijun's words, thinking that his mother really wanted to tell him what was in his heart.But now, heh...
Hearing that Jia Amnesty spoke of one heir and one head of the family, Shi Taijun, Jia Zheng, and Mrs. Wang all looked very unhappy.Is this guy reminding them that doves occupy the magpie's nest? !I don't even think about what kind of guy he is, if this huge Rongguo Mansion is handed over to them and his wife, they will be down and out early, their homes will be destroyed and everyone will die!
Shi Taijun suppressed his anger, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Then do you know what day it is today? Do you know who are the guests at the house? Do you know how many people will laugh if the banquet is not thoughtful? Do you know how many years of your family's clean reputation will be ruined by your willful and reckless behavior?" Although he decided to endure it, Shi Taijun still couldn't bear it, and his voice became louder and louder, and at the end he was already questioning loudly.
"What day? Isn't it Baoyu's first birthday? Which child can never live it. Speaking of this, I have to blame the old lady for a few words. As a grandmother, you are too partial. My Lian'er is The eldest son and grandson of the family will also inherit the title in the future. What did he do when he caught Zhou? It seems that he set up a few tables at home. At that time, he said that he was afraid of ruining the child's luck, so he would not be afraid to come to Baoyu? Old lady , You are wrong, you don’t love Baoyu too much.”
"What are you talking about? Baoyu was born with jade. This is a great fortune, a great blessing, and anyone can compare with it?" Shi Taijun was choked by this bastard son. She thought he was going to use Jia Lian to catch Zhou. Talking about something, I didn't expect that this wicked person would change the subject and almost make her unable to answer.
Jia Amnesty didn't refute her, instead he smiled, "Then I'd like to see how this child's fortune came about. Let me tell you, a son of a sixth-rank chief doesn't need such great fortune. Mr. Two, you have to be careful that your son's fortune is too big to catch people's eyes, if someone passes it up as an auspicious sign, maybe your son will become a decoration in some palace."
"This..." Hearing what he said, Shi Taijun and Jia Zheng also trembled in their hearts, they couldn't help but look at each other, and then they both looked at Mrs. Wang.They were happy to patronize Baoyu's piece of jade, and didn't think about it in other places.Moreover, the handwriting on the jade has nothing to do with the court, so they didn't care.However, I'm really afraid that people will be far-fetched and framed.After all, there are quite a few people who were inexplicably convicted of writing in this dynasty.
"Old lady, you've been tired all day, so don't say those meandering words. Didn't you just want to ask me, why did you smash the kitchen? It's very simple, they don't work well, they don't serve well, let I'm not happy. My master is not happy anymore, how can that make them happy? But don't worry, the old lady, it's just a kitchen, and it won't let everyone go hungry. "
Master Xi patted his forehead again, and suddenly said: "Oh, there is also the matter of Lai Da. That dog slave's heart has been indulged too much, and he doesn't even look down on his master. He should be taught a lesson. Since the old lady is on If you don’t worry about your age, if you don’t care about these guys, then I have to do it myself. Don’t worry, that dog has just been trained by me, and it will definitely change its mind.”
"In addition, I heard people say that Lai Da corrupted a lot of property in the mansion, and I don't know if it's true or not. But don't worry, old lady, we would rather waste than let go. I have already ordered someone to raid his house, and it must be soon. There will be a conclusion. If the dog slave really dares to guard himself and steal, I will deal with him personally without you doing it, and I won’t make things difficult for the old lady, don’t worry.”
Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry... put your mother's heart at ease!
The eighth chapter Shi Taijun is very disappointed as a mother
"Let go..." Shi Taijun clenched his fists violently, forcing himself to swallow the rest of the words.After so many years, it was the first time she discovered that the boss was so eloquent and forceful.At this moment, I can't care about self-cultivation, and opened my mouth to roar: "What nonsense! Is our family the kind of unreasonable family? You dare to copy other people's house without any evidence?!"
Shi Taijun's lung capacity was a problem, and he felt chest tightness and shortness of breath when he roared, and his eyes turned black.She had no choice but to slow down her tone, and continued to condemn: "The kitchen is so busy today, but it's just serving later, so it's worth smashing the kitchen? You don't care about your reputation outside, but can you take care of it?" Are you taking care of me and Zheng'er's face?"
"Zheng'er is an official in the court, and he is cautious all day long, as if walking on thin ice, for fear that something will go wrong, and someone will catch him. He will have no hope of official career in the future, and will cause the family to lose power. But you, a good banquet is exactly the right thing to do. When expanding your network and getting in touch with relatives, you didn't help him in the front, but you dragged you behind. Xi'er, you let my mother down so much!"
"Pfft..." Jia She couldn't help but sneered when he heard the words, looked at Jia Zheng with ridicule in his eyes, and jokingly said, "Second brother, is a small boss so important in the Ministry of Industry? It's worth your caution, Walking on eggshells? I know, you are just a low-rank official; but I don’t know, after hearing this, I still think you are a first-rank official.”
"Let's talk about your official career, I thought you knew yourself a long time ago and gave up hope. Tell me about you, you have been enlightened since you were three years old, and you have been studying until you are twenty. Don't talk about being a Jinshi and a scholar. You are even a child. I haven't passed the exam. Back then, I heard people outside saying that you loved reading, and my face was blushing for you. If it wasn't for fear that you would continue to embarrass yourself, would you have passed the test as a father?"
Jia Amnesty didn't argue with Shi Taijun head-on, so no matter what, he was a mother, but he didn't have any scruples about pointing the gun at Jia Zheng.He used to be stupid with his mouth, but it's different now.This was practiced with those ruthless soldiers in the border towns. At least Jia Zheng really couldn't stand it, and his face immediately turned red and black.
"Father gave up face and the emperor's favor for you, but look what you have done? You have been sitting in the position of chief executive for ten years, and you still manage the most unimportant documents. When will you grow up? Second child, it's not easy for the old lady, she gave up face for you back then, and won't leave the main hall, so you should love her too."
"Crack!" Shi Taijun couldn't hold back, and smashed another teacup.Listen to what this scoundrel has to say, it's because she blames her for being shameless and letting Zheng'er's family live in the main hall.Is this still what a son should say? !Her face turned red, and she pointed at Jia She with trembling fingers, "You, you bastard, kneel down for me."
Master Xi held the little girl in his arms firmly, and asked slowly: "Why did the old lady say that? Could it be that I said something wrong? Didn't the second child fail the entrance examination for Tongsheng? Didn’t it be said that he is good at studying? Isn’t he a sixth-rank official? Isn’t he not promoted for ten years? Doesn’t he live in Rongxi Hall? Does he really have skin and face?”
"Zheng'er is your own younger brother. Do you speak like that? Jia She, do you really dislike our mother and son, and wish to drive us all out? What's wrong with your brother living in Rongxi Hall? As long as I, an old lady I haven't died yet, whoever I let live in the main hall can live there. Don't feel wronged, Rongxi Hall is the main hall of the Duke's Mansion, you are not worthy to live there."
Shi Taijun raised his eyebrows, and his well-maintained face was full of anger, "I won't talk nonsense with you today, and the money for cleaning the kitchen will come from your private house. If you don't want to, Zheng's daughter-in-law, from tomorrow onwards There is no need to allocate monthly money to the big house, and we will talk about when the deduction is enough. In addition, for these three months, there is no need to worry about the big house’s food, let them solve it by themselves.”
"Also, let the steward Lai go immediately, and call back the slaves who ransacked the house. Zheng'er, go and see if Lai Da is hurt later, and order the doctor to take a good look at it .Moreover, let’s see what losses the Lai family has suffered. Make a list and let them double the compensation when you get the big house. If the big house doesn’t pay for all the expenses, they will be deducted from the monthly silver.”
Mrs. Wang originally lowered her head, but when she heard the words, the corners of her mouth curled up, and she nodded hurriedly.Oh, this time you know how powerful the old thing is.I don't have any skills, and I want to provoke authority, I just don't know how to live or die.He even dared to mention Rongxitang, and he didn't think that it was the old man's rebellion. Whoever mentions it will die.Back then, she wished everyone would forget what she did with no dignity.
As for the words that Jia Zheng was scolded and humiliated, Mrs. Wang had no objection, after all, what he said was the truth.She decided to marry Jia Zheng when she heard that Jia Zheng was a talented and motivated man.But who knows that this is a waste only when we get along with each other.Poor her dignified daughter of the royal family, she has only a sixth-rank imperial order, she is losing money.
Shi Taijun felt that he was gaining prestige, so he took a breath, and said earnestly: "Nurse Lai is my dowry and has served me by my side for decades. I know her character very well. Lai Da is also in my opinion." Those who grow up are definitely not the kind of people who fill their own pockets and entrap the master's family. The most important thing for a family like ours is to employ people with no doubts, so that the servants can be loyal to work."
"I don't want to have a second chance of ransacking the house without any evidence." Shi Taijun shot Jia Amnesty who was sitting peacefully with his sharp eyes, and pointedly said: "If anyone dares to commit the crime again in the future, Don't blame my old lady for not saving face for him, opening a ancestral hall, asking for family law, let him go and apologize to his ancestors."
In fact, Shi Taijun is not so sure whether the Lai family has poached the corner of the Rongguo Mansion.However, Mr. and Mrs. Lai are her confidantes and right-hand men.She wants to continue to control the overall situation of the family, but she cannot do without these two, she cannot give up yet.Besides, she thinks that she has never treated the Lai family badly, and she doesn't think they can become big moths.When it comes to judging people, Shi Taijun is somewhat confident.
"Old lady, Madam Lai is in a hurry to see you." A maid's exclamation came from outside, "Hey, Mama, what are you doing?"
Jia Amnesty was watching their performance, but he was delighted when he heard this movement.It seems that Lin Zhixiao and the others have already succeeded, but they don't know what they copied from Lai's house. After thinking about it, Mr. Xi is quite looking forward to it.As for what Shi Taijun said about giving out money and deducting money from the moon, he didn't care at all.He would definitely not give out the silver; as for the withheld silver, he would have to spit it out sooner or later.
Let them be proud for two days first, and when he makes a move, the Rongguo Mansion may decide who will speak.Jia Amnesty believed that as long as he went to investigate, there would be a pigtail waiting for him to catch.This woman is greedy and bold, but she is not cautious in the future, so it is a good time to deal with her.It can't be said that the burden of separating the two families still falls on her.
"Let her in quickly." Shi Taijun snorted coldly at Jia She, and then called out Nanny Lai in a gentle voice.When she thought about it, Nanny Lai must have come to complain. She was waiting for the bitter master to come to her door so that she could show Jia She a little bit more.
"Yes, the old lady is busy now, so I'll go back first. Ma'am, Lian'er, you also follow me, let's go to the restaurant at night." How could Jia She have the time to listen to Nanny Lai's crying, and he had to hurry Go back and see how many private houses have been added.After all, regardless of Shi Taijun's reaction, he lifted the curtain and strode away.
"Master, please spare our family." Nanny Lai bumped into Jia She, knelt down again with a thud, grabbed his robe and kowtowed, "If we get in your way, please tell me , our family will leave immediately, and dare not appear in front of you again. It's just...just, I can't bear the old lady..."
Jia She glared, and shouted: "Hurry up and pull her away, the old lady inside is waiting for her to reply. Nanny Lai, master, I don't know what I copied from your house, what are you doing? But Don't talk about forgiveness, if you have done nothing wrong, I will not punish you; but if you have done something wrong, then there are rules in the house, and I will only act according to the rules."
He looked at the choked woman with a smile, bent slightly and said, "Hehe, looking at you like this, I'm afraid you have a lot of good things. Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you. If you and your son are not greedy, I will not be greedy." You can’t make such a windfall. Don’t worry, just go for this, and the master will not kill you.” The Lai family is actually a family of good deeds, and Master She has kindness towards them.
"Hahaha..." Seeing Jia Amnesty laughing and walking away, Nanny Lai's heart sank even more.She is a person close to the old lady, and she is much more respectable than ordinary servants since she was born. Even the masters of the next generation will give her face.Coupled with the fact that she has been raised at home for the past few years, and she has lived the life of an old lady who serves her servants, she thought that she would live like this for the rest of her life.
But who knew that misfortune would fall from the sky, and the old man would be in trouble all of a sudden.This incident was so sudden that their family was not prepared at all, and everything would have been copied.If some news had been received in advance, those things would have been sent to the countryside long ago.But now that they were all caught, thinking about the things that were copied out, Nanny Lai couldn't help but feel terrified.
It's also because Lai Da's job as a housekeeper has been so smooth in the past few years, even though he has become more courageous and dared to do anything.If some things are not copied out, even she doesn't know about them, they are things that can lose their heads.Alas, now I can only hope that this old face of hers can still be a bit decent, so that the old lady can come forward and spare them this time.
Not to mention how Nanny Lai went to Shi Taijun to cry and admit her mistakes and beg for mercy, and how to make the old lady slap her face, just say that when the four of Jia She returned to their yard, they saw a yard full of boxes. Stack up.Jia She's face changed immediately, he was happy and angry at the same time.
This is just copying a servant's house, so many things were copied out?He thought at first that the Lai family didn't have the greed in the future. When they built the Grand View Garden, they dared to get one for themselves.But now it seems that his understanding of human nature is still too shallow.Just this eye-catching sweep is worth half of his private house.Heh, this knife was slaughtered happily!
The Ninth Chapter: Ren Jia pardoned his life and squeezed Shui Zhi Xia He to plan for the Rongqing Hall
"Tell me, what are these things?" Jia Amnesty had several boxes in front of him, and below that was Lai Da who was kneeling there.These things are not ordinary, not only are the items in the public treasury of the Rongguo Mansion, but some of them are actually the dowry of Jia She's original wife, the Zhou family.That's all, what made Jia She angry the most was...there were actually two things in it that were bestowed by the former emperor in the early years.
When the reality is not in front of him, Lai Da always takes chances. Maybe his mother begged the old lady to stop the old man.Especially when the old man was called away by the old lady, he had already seen hope.But now, all hopes have been shattered by reality.This is not only the Elder's problem, as for these two gifts from the imperial court, even the old lady can't spare him.
This is the end of the Lai family!Not only him, just now he saw that his wife, son and others had been tied up, and he didn't know how the Elder Master planned to deal with them.Fortunately, his old lady went to the old lady to intercede, but she didn't know if it would be useful.Thinking of this, he couldn't help hating the kitchen, it's nothing to provoke this poor guy to do, but he suffers this kind of trouble because he is troubled.
In fact, he didn't even think about it, if it wasn't for the fact that he, the big housekeeper, didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the big house, so that the people in the house followed suit, how could he be seized by the pardoned master.Moreover, if it wasn't for his own extremely long hands, which dared to get everything into his house, Jia Amnesty wouldn't be sure.It's all self-inflicted, and you have to blame others.
"Master Lai, do you think it's better for the master to send your family to the government, or to beat him to death? You are also the housekeeper of the house, and you always deal with people on weekdays. Which method do you think is better?" Better?" Jia She was playing with a stone as red as blood in his hand.
