Grandmother Jia is now extremely regretful. Why did she marry such a stupid and bad wife for Zheng'er, who has now caused trouble?

She said to Yuanyang, "When the second master returns home, ask him to come to my place."

Yuanyang quickly agreed. Her palms were now full of sweat, wet, sticky and slippery, but she didn't dare to wipe them.

The person sent to guard the door saw Jia Zheng and hurried over to greet him, "Old lady, please come in."

Jia Zheng said, "I will go change my clothes first, then I can go see my mother."

"The old lady said that there can be no delay and asked you to go as soon as you come back."

Jia Zheng knew something was wrong.

I just don’t know whether it’s a good thing or a bad thing.

But as soon as he entered, he saw the dark face of Jia's mother. Jia Zheng was anxious, bowed and asked, "I wonder why mother asked Jia Zheng to come here."

Grandmother Jia was furious and snorted coldly, which frightened Jia Zheng so much that cold sweat ran down his face. "Mother, what trouble did Baoyu cause outside?"

He was about to send someone to take Baoyu away, but Grandmother Jia scolded him: "My Baoyu is very sensible and reasonable. You sent someone to take him away without asking any questions. Since you can't stand him so much, why don't you send us all away?"

Jia Zheng was so ashamed by these words that he bowed his head and said, "Jia Zheng dare not."

Grandmother Jia taunted her, "I don't think you dare to do anything. If I were not still of some use to you, you would not even take me seriously."

These words hurt Jia Zheng's heart. Jia Zheng was deeply influenced by Confucianism and attached great importance to filial piety. He had never expected to be scolded by his grandmother in this way. He was so flustered that he could only ask the old lady to calm down.

After all, he was her own son. Although Grandmother Jia was furious, she suppressed her anger and said, "Do you know what your good wife did?"

Jia Zheng was puzzled: "My son doesn't know, please tell me, mother."

"Your good wife has offended Prince Linhuai. If the prince had not been unwilling to pursue the matter for Chengyu's sake, how could our Jia family be safe?" Grandmother Jia's tone was as light as floating hair, but it was like a heavy blow to Jia Zheng's ears.

He looked dazed for a moment, his head was buzzing, and he was unable to react for a moment.

After a while, Jia Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "Stupid woman."

He said, "Please tell me, mother, what did that fool woman do to offend that person?"

Grandmother Jia sneered, "Your good daughter-in-law sent someone out to spread rumors that Chengyu is the male favorite of Prince Linhuai."

"You didn't know anything and let that stupid woman do whatever she wanted." Grandmother Jia's tone was full of anger. "You are such a good uncle. I wonder how you are going to explain this to your sister."

Jia Zheng was horrified, his face turned pale, and he wished he could strangle that stupid woman to death right away.

He used to only dislike Wang for being illiterate, but she gave birth to two sons and a daughter for him, and Jia Zheng and her had always treated each other with respect.

Although she could not add beauty to the family, she was in charge of the household affairs, filial to her elders, and never made any mistakes, so she deserved the title of the second wife of the Jia family.

Looking back now, he was really deceived by that compassionate face.

But Yuanchun and Baoyu could not have such a vicious mother. Jia Zheng was afraid to act rashly and did not know what to do for a while.

Jia Zheng's worries are also Jia Mu's worries. She keeps them to herself because she is worried that it will affect Yuanchun and Baoyu.

If people knew that their mother was such a vicious and stupid woman, their future prospects would be ruined.

Grandmother Jia hated Wang very much, but she could only smooth over the matter for her, "Your wife is now mute, which is her lesson, but the Jia family cannot be without any explanation."

Jia Zheng said, "Mother is right. According to what you said, the arrival of Doctor Zhou is a warning to the Jia family. We need to show an attitude that will satisfy him."

The two discussed for a while, and finally decided to let Mrs. Wang reflect on her mistakes in her small Buddhist temple and not leave without permission.

If anyone asked, she would just say that she was filial and was willing to pray for the old lady and ward off disasters.

In this way, the Jia family's attitude was made clear to Prince Linhuai while their reputation was preserved.

But Mrs. Wang was unwilling to do so. She ran to Lady Jia's yard and made a lot of noise. Finally, she was severely scolded by Jia Zheng. Only then did Mrs. Wang realize that what she had done was exposed.

When Jia Zheng was extremely angry, he threatened to divorce this vicious woman, and only then did Mrs. Wang dare to stop making trouble.

Even if it was for Baoyu, she had to endure it.

Mrs. Wang touched Baoyu's hair as he hurried over, her eyes full of reluctance. His messy hair and clothes were no longer as decent and tidy as before.

How could Jia Baoyu bear to see his own mother being locked up in a Buddhist temple for no reason? No matter how weak he was, he suddenly felt a surge of courage when he saw his biological mother's helpless and pitiful gaze.

"Grandfather, why did you and father want to lock mother up in the Buddhist temple?"

Jia Zheng scolded, "What do you know? Don't say anything more here."

Jia Zheng has always been a strict father, and Jia Baoyu was extremely afraid of him whenever he saw him. Now being scolded in this familiar tone, Jia Baoyu almost wanted to run away.

"But mother is ill, and instead of letting her recover, you lock her up. How can this be justified? If my aunt and uncle find out, how will we explain it to them?"

Jia Zheng snorted coldly and flicked his sleeves in front of Jia Baoyu, which frightened him. "Let them come, I have my reasons."

How could the Wang family have the face to argue with him when they raised such a vicious and stupid woman?

Once they find out the truth, it will be too late to hide.

Their daughter still has to get married, so as long as they are not afraid, they can come.

Jia Zheng felt that he had done nothing wrong, but his stupid son kept arguing with him.

He was about to take the man away and teach him a lesson, but Grandmother Jia said, "Baoyu is grown up now, there are some things he should know."

While Jia Baoyu was stunned, he learned from Grandmother Jia about the good things his mother had done.

After a while, he said blankly: "But didn't the prince give up the matter?"

Grandmother Jia's heart sank. For the first time, she realized how naive the grandson she had taught so carefully was.

"Forget it, Baoyu is still young, it's normal for him not to understand these things." Grandmother Jia was unwilling to admit her failure, and could only comfort herself that Baoyu was still young, and that children are cute because they are innocent and ignorant.

Although Jia Zheng did not dare to scold his son in front of his grandmother, his eyes were like knives, stabbing Jia Baoyu fiercely.

fool!

Mrs. Wang was locked up in the Buddhist temple, and Grandmother Jia kept Jia Baoyu, breaking down the situation bit by bit and explaining to him the interests involved.

Jia Baoyu is not stupid, he is just too well protected and naive to know the ways of the world.

Grandmother Jia always knew that he was very smart, so even though he didn't like studying, she just thought he was just a naughty and playful child.

But one can't be naughty and playful all his life, so Grandmother Jia wants to start with this incident and slowly teach him.

After listening to her, Jia Baoyu was silent for a moment and said, "Since this matter is related to Chengyu, I will go to him to plead for mercy and ask him to help mediate with the prince."

Jia Mu: "..."

She said so much in vain.
