Winning every step of the Red Mansion

When Shi Feier heard about the loan usury from the Lai family, she hurriedly asked Jia Amnesty to bring Jia Jing and Jia Zheng together to discuss the matter.Jia Jingyi saw that the interest was huge and the income was quick, so he didn't want to give up.Shi Fei'er naturally understood, after all, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng are his cheap sons anyway, and they can still listen to what they say, but Jia Jing is the head of the Ningguo Mansion, but this Jia's mother's nephew, Shi Fei'er is also afraid I'm putting it lightly, but Jia Jing doesn't care about it, after all, the Ningrong and Rongfu are one, if there is no division, one can't get away if something happens to the other.

Hearing Jia Jing say that he had asked the subordinates involved in the case to sign and draw a pledge, it was written in black and white that this was a deliberate act by the Lai family.Seeing that he didn't understand it, Shi Fei'er said directly: "The Lai family has lived in the mansion for three generations, and they are not stupid to be able to climb up to this position. Now that Lai Da is in prison, he will definitely bribe the relationship, Let the family try to rescue them. If we hadn't raided the Lai family this time, the Lai family would still be rich. As for the future, anyway, the Lai family has a lot of money, so it is easy to transfer it out little by little, and then find a way to redeem themselves." Jia She and Jia Zheng listened and nodded, Indeed, can this money make ghosts turn mills?

Instead, Jia She said: "What mother is thinking about is, it's just that my son has heard that Mr. Fang is an upright person, otherwise he wouldn't have told me about Lai Da's bribery and his 200 taels of silver."

Shi Feier smiled: "That's what I'm really worried about. The speculation just now is based on the fact that Lai's house has not been confiscated and has money. Now that Lai's house has been confiscated, if Lai Da tries to find out what's going on today. Do you think this Lai Daneng is not in a hurry? If Lai Dayu wants to fight to the death and confess in court for the sake of his own self-interest, let him release usury, do you think he will check this upright Mr. Fang? If it is checked, the evidence in your hand can be destroyed, but the person who borrowed the money is still there, and the IOU in his hand is clearly stamped with the private stamps of the heads of the two of you!"

Jia Jing quickly argued: "But I also have the pledges of those servants, which proves that this matter has nothing to do with me." Jia She on the side also nodded repeatedly.

"It can be said that Mr. Lai was forced by the coercion and lure of the mansion, so they dared not report the matter. Besides, the pledge was only asked by the mansion, and it was used as a reference in the court at most. If the lord wants to call a few The servants who knew the inside story asked, what should you do, should you let Master Fang go to the coal mine to find someone, or pull a group of dumb people to interrogate Master Fang?" Shi Feier stopped talking and stuffed a sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus flower into her mouth. Mei Gan looked at Jia Jing and Jia She.As soon as these words were thrown out, the three brothers of the Jia family were a little dumbfounded. Jia Amnesty repeatedly slapped his forehead and sighed that he had acted recklessly in this matter today.

Jia Jing didn't give up, he turned his head and said, "I'm not afraid. Once I'm the master of the Ningguo Mansion and a Jinshi, I don't believe that this evil slave's lies can overwhelm me." Jia Zhen on the side also started He said: "Yes, father, you are not afraid of the shadow slanting when you are upright. If Lord Fang believes the lies told by the evil slave, then this Lord Fang is a fool no matter how upright he is."

Shi Feier nodded and looked at Jia Zhen: "That's true. But even if Mr. Fang finds out that this matter has nothing to do with our Ningrong Second House, so what, the Jia family's neglect of discipline has spread widely. Yes, the criticism of the subordinates has also been spread, and the servants rely on Jia's government to issue usury money. If this matter is known to the censor, do you think they will submit a letter saying that Ning Rong The second government ordered people to release usury money privately without national law, destroy evidence after the incident happened, and be harsh on people."

Seeing that Jia Jing and Jia She were silent, Shi Fei'er said again: "The emperor of the court values ​​benevolence and filial piety the most. Guess how much the censor will believe in this book? If you get a name on the censor because of this, you Let’s think about why we raided the Lai’s house this time. If His Majesty remembered that our Jia’s owed the imperial silver, would he use it as an excuse to rectify it?”

After a moment of silence, Jia Jingfu spoke again: "The matter has not yet come to this point, and it is mostly my aunt's speculation, maybe this matter is not as good as this."

Jia Zheng, who had been standing by the side, said, "My mother's concern this time is that these days my son is looking for a good teacher for his family. He also visited a few great Confucians and talked about his benevolence, loyalty and filial piety. Besides, if he gets a bad reputation, It is even more difficult to restore the reputation. Nowadays, most of the four kings and eight princes have a bad reputation in the capital, if the Jia family takes the lead, it may be punished."

Now that the words have come to this point, Jia Jing no longer thinks about the 8000 taels of silver released.The thunder, rain and dew are all due to Jun's favor, although it is only Jia Mu's speculation, but if it happens, I can't gamble with my family.What's more, this time was originally for the sake of making troubles, and it would be bad if troubles happened again.Thinking of this, Jia Jing saluted Shi Feier respectfully and said, "Thank you auntie and nephew Xiaoming, I am the nephew who acted recklessly today, I would like to ask my auntie to show me what is going on with this matter .”

Shi Fei'er smiled: "Now our family has a big business, we must not take risks. If there is a slight mistake, even if the weather is calm today, I don't know if I will be in a desperate situation when I look back. It is not difficult to settle things this time. Thinking about it, it would be trivial. First, if Mr. Lai asked his family members to rescue him, he had to go through the gate. First, he changed all the gates and issued a strict order. No matter who asked again, he must not leak a word about Lai's family. .” Jia Jing and Jia She nodded, this matter is not difficult.

Shi Fei'er paused for a moment and said: "Today you copied Lai's family and gained a lot, so let's treat the usury as a good deed. But if you give it up, you must take back the loan and destroy it. You need to find some people in the mansion. He searched for all these sufferers in a face-to-face and meticulous manner, not one of them. Tell the sufferers that this time, Mr. Lai's family is willing to do good deeds, so he forgave all the money they owed. If someone asks about it in the future, he will definitely Just a few words of kindness for the two masters of the Lai family. But this time you have to work hard, take back a receipt, verify it is correct, and burn it yourself at the time, and you must not borrow others' hands to save trouble."

Hearing this, Jia Zheng was puzzled and said: "It's enough to ask for a receipt to avoid the arrears. Why do you want to speak well for this evil slave of Lai's family?"

After hearing this, Shi Fei'er felt quite helpless, couldn't the second child think more about things.If Lai Da bites recklessly, then Master Fang will investigate the sufferer. The receipt of the sufferer has Jia Jingjia Amnesty's private stamp, and if it is kept, it will be done. Jia's government will release usury.But if the Lai family went to find the sufferer by themselves, and told the sufferer that it was the Lai family who did good deeds, then it was the Lai family themselves.The Jia family was just accused of indulging servants and being weak in control.Anyway, the purpose of this visit is to put an end to the usury issue, so that there will be no more incidents.

Shi Fei'er saw that Jia Amnesty and Jia Jing wrote down the confession one by one, and said: "Zheng'er, today's matter does not involve you, but I am also afraid that someone under your command will use your name to do such evil things. Check it out, it’s best if there is no one, and if there is, you can solve it according to this method. After you have settled the matter, you can exchange the old door and tell Lai Da about today’s ransacking of Lai’s house. You must let this evil slave Eat what you want."
