The Mighty First Wife of the Red Chamber

Jia Lian left the gate of the palace with a livid face, Xing'er trotted all the way to keep up, and several other long-term followers.

Jia Lian was angry in his heart, so he sneaked a hard look at Xing'er in his busy schedule, and his meaning was very clear, you boy, dare to betray your master, wait until you go back, you will not be skinned, you bastard!

Jia Lian usually looks like a playboy with a smile on his lips, even when he is facing his servants, he seldom glares angrily. It can be seen how high the flames of anger are in his heart.

Xing'er was so frightened that his knees gave way, and he knelt down in the street. At the same time, regardless of the surprised and curious eyes from the passers-by, he slapped himself left and right, slapping himself, cursing at the same time. I am a "dog slave", saying: "The dog slave is the slave of the second master and not the slave of the second grandma. Why doesn't the second master listen to what the second grandma says, but the second grandma listens to whatever she says, pouring out all the slop in her stomach , caused the second master to be wronged, and made the second master angry! The second master loves the dog slave so much, and the dog slave just sold the second master just like this, the dog slave really deserves to die!" As he said, "papapapa" His face was swollen, and he didn't dare to stop.

Jia Lian didn't expect Xing'er to be so agile, and before he had time to teach him a lesson, he typed it himself, and the scolding words were all in line with Jia Lian's ideas, so he didn't have to think about words, so he stayed there for a while. react to.

Xing'er knelt down with a sad face, slapped himself twice again, and then took two steps towards Jia Lian's knees, crying bitterly: "The dog slave deserves to die, the crime deserves death, it shouldn't be done by the second grandma." I told you about Master being outside, but Grandma is so powerful, I really can't hide it from you. I beg Second Master to show mercy and spare slave."

Jia Lian was angry when he was angry, but he was a man of good temper who was willing to reason and be kind to his servants. He also knew Xifeng's usual temper. Xing'er didn't say that she was going to burn her mouth with a branding iron, not to mention Xing'er was born in a family, and my wife's whole family worked in Jia's mansion. If Xing'er dared to disobey Xifeng, the whole family would suffer.Besides, seeing Xifeng's confident appearance before, I'm afraid she already knew about this matter, even if Xing'er refused to admit it, she would have a way to get other people to testify, and this trip today will definitely not be avoided .Besides, what's the use of blaming the boys below?

In the end, Jia Lian had no choice but to kick Xing'er angrily, and said: "Get up quickly and go out with the master to do business! Kneeling on the street to play these acorns, and pretending to be a monkey yourself? I don't think the master has lost face enough today." ah?"

As soon as Xing'er heard the second master's tone, he knew that the matter had been fooled, so he quickly put it away, got up from the ground, and said in a repeated voice: "Yes, yes, yes, it is because the second master loves the slave, and the slave is the second son. If you do something, you will die!"

Although his face is swollen, it is much cheaper than being sent to the housekeeper to be boarded after returning home, and finally transferred to a distant village to do rough work.Xing'er thought.

Jia Lian went all the way to the Metropolitan Procuratorate like a breeze, passed a post at the door and entered, and stood there for the time being, waiting for the Procuratorate to be summoned.

During this time, some cold sweat broke out on Jia Lian's back with gusto.

Although he thought he could tear this matter apart with the prestige of the Jia Mansion, after all, it was the first time he was sued to the Yamen. As a child of a family, it was quite embarrassing, and he didn't have any fear in his heart?

Jia Lian was anxious, and after waiting for a stick of incense, a yamen servant came, politely led the way, led Jia Lian into the inner hall, and asked him to sit down in a very spacious room.

Before Jia Lian had time to look around, a man in an official hat came in.Guessing that this person is the Lord Procuratorate, Jia Lian hurriedly stood up to greet him.

The procuratorate also bowed its hands and said with a smile: "Young Master Jia, sit down, you don't need to be polite."

The envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is generally called the Procuratorate, and the fourth-rank officials are higher than those of Jia Zheng. The surname of this procuratorate is Zhou. Many years ago, I just returned to Beijing by order the year before last. Looking at the age of forty and nearly fifty, the gray sideburns can be seen under the official hat, and the eye lines stretch out when she smiles. She looks very gentle, and her address is extremely polite, because Jia Lian didn't have a serious official position and it was difficult to call him, so he called him "Jia Xiandi". Although some dramas were nondescript, it made Jia Lian relax a little from his nervous and disturbed mood all the way.

That's right, so what if it's a fourth-rank official, seeing me as a fifth-rank co-author, isn't he polite and doesn't even dare to raise his voice?What Mr. Zhou is afraid of this week is nothing more than the first-rank Duke's mansion and the empress in the palace behind me!Thinking of this, Jia Lian immediately straightened his back, and also had a full smile on his face, but he became neither humble nor overbearing.

The Zhou procuratorate ordered the servants to serve tea.After serving the tea, Jia Lian saw that the tea bowl was a fine white-tailed official porcelain, and took another sip of the tea soup. It tasted very good, like the "Maple Dew Tea" that he also drank at home.This is good tea as a tribute, and with such hospitality from the procuratorate, it would be nothing more than a side dish for Second Sister You to complain, so she just prepared it.

Jia Lian's heart became more and more settled, and she put down the tea bowl she drank gently with a smile, and waited to see what Mr. Zhou said.

Zhou Chayuan was not in a hurry, first greeted Jia Lian, then asked Mrs. Jia how she was in health, and then got to the point, shook her head, smiled and said to Jia Lian: "Brother Jia, the sage Confucius has a good saying. Well, it’s true that a villain and a woman are difficult to raise. It’s a wise saying. Isn’t Jia Xiandi now facing this troublesome matter of women’s quarrels and her husband’s troubles? No, I’m suing the lower official’s Metropolitan Procuratorate! Xiaguan thought, this is your housework, my virtuous brother, and it will be settled after a few discussions. , I am afraid that the lower official can't handle this housework well, so I thought, why not invite my younger brother to discuss and discuss this, and see... what should I do, hahaha."

With that said, Zhou procuratorate took out a piece of paper and showed it to Jia Lian.Jia Lian quickly took it over.

That piece of paper was exactly the complaint written with Second Sister You as the plaintiff. It was just as described by Xing'er, and it accused Jia Lian of several crimes in a sad tone. Parents married one level of crime, stopped their wives to marry another level of crime, and another crime was fabricated. What relied on the power of the Jia family to force the Zhang family to withdraw from the marriage, but in the end they abandoned it all the time, called Second Sister You. Such a kind woman ended up being ridiculed, and she wished she could die.

Seeing the blue veins on Jia Lian's forehead popping up, even though she knew that Second Sister You would not sue her, she was still so shocked that layers of sweat broke out on her back, and she was just grinding her teeth in her heart: This bitch, talking about love when her ears are rubbing her temples , so vicious behind the scenes, how can there be any affection!Even Xifeng, who looks powerful on weekdays, is nothing more than small tricks and tricks. Compared with this, it can only be regarded as tickling!

Zhou Chaoyuan drank tea leisurely, and looked up at Jia Lian's expression from time to time. Seeing that although Jia Lian was trying to be calm, he was still young, and he could see that his nervous and flustered emotions were leaking out, so he couldn't help laughing secretly. The more you panic, the more you owe me a huge favor.It is said that Jia's family used to have a high lintel, so it was not easy to make friends with. Now, although people say that the reputation has dropped a lot, after all, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and there are empresses in the palace, how can I say that she is also the pillow of the Holy One .Furthermore, even if Jia's mansion is gone, there is still Wang's mansion. Wang Ziteng is a confidant today. I heard that Mr. Jia's first wife is Wang Ziteng's niece and daughter. Just come in handy.

Thinking of it this way, Zhou Chayuan laughed, showing the air of an elder more and more, and said: "How about it, is this housework a bit tricky, my virtuous brother? How old is my virtuous brother, an official fool, and I have some experience to pass on." Then Nonsense attacks on a woman's jealousy and other gossip.

Jia Lian went down the donkey, thanked Mr. Zhou for his kind teaching, and said with a smile, "what Mr. Zhou said is very true. It turned out that the ignorant woman in Wansheng's family was messing around. I made you laugh. Wait until Wansheng today. Tell them the rules when you get back, and don't act recklessly like this in the future, otherwise, you will definitely be expelled from the house, so as not to make you laugh."

Zhou Chayuan twirled his beard and smiled, and said: "Since that's the case, my virtuous brother will go back today and ask your family to withdraw the complaint tomorrow. The lower officials are concerned about the reputation of the family, but they kept quiet at all."

Jia Lian slandered in his heart, you haven't let anyone know at all, you have come to our Jia's mansion to fetch me, how can you make a fuss?Do you want to beat the gongs and drums?It's true that there are no "officials" and no rape!

In fact, Jia Lian really wronged the Zhou Procuratorate. It was not the Yamen who released the news, but his good wife.It's just that the servants of Jia's mansion are afraid of Second Mistress Lian's powerful methods, and if they don't do their own business, who dares to gossip?In other words, he only dared to follow the direction of Lian's second grandma's public opinion and spread the news she wanted.

No, Jia Lian is still sitting here in the procuratorate sweating coldly to calm down the situation. The news that people from the yamen almost went straight to Jia's mansion to fetch Lian's second master spread throughout Jia's mansion as if he had grown scuds.

All the servants were rumored to be excited. They said that the second master Lian had an affair with the sister of Grandma You in the house over there, and married her as the second wife behind his parents' backs. But the girl sued the second master Lian to the court, and there was nothing to talk about, tsk tsk tsk, they were all relatives, why did "the flood rushed into the Dragon King Temple, and my family didn't recognize my family"?If you have anything to say, sit down and discuss it with everyone, what are you doing in Shangguantang?

This must be considered heavyweight gossip news!Furthermore, even the servants of the Rongguo Mansion here have heard of Second Sister You's famous name. They knew that she and her brother-in-law Jia Zhen were not clean. Marry as a second wife?The second master Lian is not afraid of the green light on his forehead!There is also Lian's second grandma, who is a very powerful character. In the past, she was the maid in the mansion, and Lian's second master would make a fuss after taking a second look. What a great thing, to put it bluntly, if it is a slap in the face, let's see how the second grandmother Lian, who is usually strong-minded, will deal with it?

It's just a meal, even Jia's mother heard about it, and hurriedly called Jia Lian and his wife to come, wanting to ask what happened, but the servants replied that the second master Lian sent the second grandmother Lian back to her natal home, but if you ask After arriving at the palace, word spread that the second master Lian left by himself, and the second mistress Lian was a little annoyed, and wanted to rest at her mother's house for a few days to relax.

When Jia's mother heard this, she was so angry that her eyebrows were twisted into twists, and she said angrily to Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang who were waiting on the seat: "Lian'er, that shameless thing! I only said that he is a young man, so it is inevitable that he will be greedy." It’s like a cat! In the past, Feng girl was angry, and I persuaded Feng girl. Now it seems that he has no way to advance or retreat, and he doesn’t know what is good or bad! How to do this kind of thing, let the woman stab her The court has gone up, now our Jia Mansion is well-known in the capital!"

Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang both hurriedly got up to persuade the old lady to calm down, especially Mrs. Xing, who was Jia Lian's stepmother after all, she also took some responsibility, and she would lose face, and also helped the old lady scold Jia Lian for being ignorant to the house. Bring on trouble.

Jia's mother made a gesture, meaning to tell Xing to shut up, and said: "Don't say anything useless. Lian'er is really mad at me! When he comes back, tell him to come, and today he must go to the ancestral hall to kneel all night. , Think carefully about the shameless things I have done!"
