The most rigid Jia Amnesty in the history of the Red Chamber

Not to mention Jia's mother, even Jia Zheng was shocked when he heard such words.Jia Mu's private treasury, after a hundred years, the old lady will own all those things. How can Jia Zheng not be heartbroken?

Jia's mother even felt that the five thunders hit her head, and she spent half her life, and all the things she had saved were gone? "Quick, help me go back and have a look." Jia Mu stretched out her hand to Yuanyang.

A moment ago, Jia's mother was scolding Yuanyang for being flustered and unseemly, but now, under the background of Jia's mother and Jia Zheng, Yuanyang has become the calmest person.Yuanyang came to support Jia Mu and was about to walk out of the ear room.

Jia She became more and more furious: "Okay, okay, Jia Cunzhou, you greedy thing. The old lady is still alive, so you emptied the old lady's private treasury. You unfilial son!"

Jia Zheng only felt that Jia Amnesty slandered him for no reason, but he couldn't refute him clearly, so he went forward to support Jia Mu's other arm, and half supported and half supported Jia Mu to carry Jia Mu back to the main room.

It was the first time for Du Zhifu to encounter such a thing, and he regretted that he had come in person today, didn't he just lose a child, he just sent a few yamen servants to prevaricate that he was busy with business.

With the support of Yuanyang and Jia Zheng, Mother Jia went back to her private treasury. At first, Yuanyang said that her private treasury was empty, but Jiamu thought that Yuanyang was just exaggerating, until now she actually saw the boxes containing gold and silver in the treasury. They were all gone, and the full museum shelves were just empty shelves. Mother Jia was so frightened that she fell back and fainted.

"Old lady!" "Hurry up, ask the imperial physician."

For a while, Rongxi Hall was in turmoil.

Jia's mother was in a hurry, and her breath was not smooth for a moment. After Jia Zheng and Yuanyang lifted her to the bed and laid her flat, Yuanyang helped her breathe smoothly in her chest. Jia's mother took a breath and woke up.

"Prefect Du, I want to report to the officials, and if I can't find the lost property, I want to report to you for dereliction of duty." Mother Jia said angrily.

Jia Amnesty could not give up all his previous efforts, he still grabbed Jia Zheng by the collar and said, "Second Jia, what else do you have to say?"

That grievance of Jia Zheng, he wants face and face no matter what, but he would never do such a thing as stealing.Besides, how much furniture can Jia Mu privately store, where can he hide it?

"Brother, don't make false accusations out of thin air. If you bit your lips and teeth, I would say that you took the old lady's things. The most urgent thing is to get the things back." Jia Zheng argued.

Jia Amnesty took a look at Jia Zheng and thought, "That's right, you guessed it right again, the uncle took everything."On the face, he was distressed: "Look, look, look, how can it be so easy. So many things have been stolen by the thief, I don't know how long the thief has been thinking about it, and he is very familiar with the old lady's private treasury. Let me tell you , People who often go to the main courtyard of Rongxi Hall will be arrested and interrogated one by one."

After hearing this, Yuanyang knelt down first: "My lord, we slaves are loyal, if my lord says something like this, I won't give my slaves a chance to survive."

Jia Amnesty looked at the rather handsome girl kneeling on the ground, and thought: Jia Hu was only six years old back then, none of you gave him a way out.Although Jia Amnesty has experienced the end of the world, he does not have the heart of the Virgin Mary with the benevolence of a woman, and he has not fully substituted for the original owner. He does not have a deep love for Jia Hu, but when he strikes at a child who does not threaten other people's lives, Mother Jia and the Second Household School People, one counts as one, are not worthy of sympathy.

"If you are open-minded and have never violated laws and disciplines, I just don't want to give you a way to survive, and the national law does not allow me to mess around; if some people deserve to die, this way of life is not something I can give." Jia She said these few words very calmly The seriousness is also because of this, which makes people feel that a simple sentence is full of righteousness and deafening.

Jia's mother couldn't help being startled, she was already harboring ulterior motives, and she became more and more suspicious of ulterior motives, she always felt that Jia She's words meant something.

An outsider like Du Zhifu also felt that Jia She was upright after hearing this.It was widely rumored that the elder of the Rongguo Mansion was greedy for money and lustful, and was a well-known idiot in the capital, but no matter in terms of demeanor or speech, Prefect Du felt that Jia She was not the person as rumored.

Yuanyang is only a teenage girl, and although she is now one of Jia's mother's most trusted people, she is afraid that she was still a little girl when Jia Hu was killed, and Jia Hu's matter has nothing to do with her, so Yuanyang is still calm.Whisper should be.

The theft of two places in Rongguo Mansion is naturally a major case, and the prefect Du can't leave now even if he wants to.It's just the people in Rongguo Mansion, needless to say, Mother Jia, holds the contacts of the Rongguo Mansion and Bowlinghou's Mansion; Jia Amnesty inherits the title, and has his own contacts left by Jia Daishan.These are the gods that Du Zhifu can't afford to offend, so Du Zhifu said: "Old lady, General Jia, the things have been lost now, how do you start this case, and what are your demands?"

Duke Du's house, the prefect Du's government didn't know what taboos the Rongguo's government had, and they were afraid that they would offend others by investigating according to the procedure.

Mother Jia doesn't dare to stop the investigation now. She has worked hard and lost everything. After finding out that Daku has lost something, she can't implicate herself. What are you afraid of?

So Jia's mother said: "If something is lost, it is natural to recover it as soon as possible. Master Du will find an effective method to investigate. I only have one request. When Master Du is investigating the case, don't make a fuss." After all, it is the Rongguo Mansion. The patriarch, the old Fengjun, Rongguo Mansion's face is still needed.

But Jia She said with a mournful face: "I didn't care about the government's rewards. At worst, I will live on a salary in the future. With the protection of our ancestors, Lian'er and I will not starve to death after all. Mr. Du, if you can get things back, you will chase them. If you can't get them back , then sell the slaves and sell the land, just to keep the expenses of the old lady’s house, it’s not like the old lady’s house is inspected.”

These words made Jia's mother want to beat someone: During this period of time, Jia She almost pissed her off, but listening to Jia She's words, she is so filial.When Du Zhifu heard this, he couldn't help admiring that General Jia's reputation of being pure and filial could not be deceitful.

In fact, when Jia Amnesty said these words, he walked up to the prefect Du, put his hands behind his back, spread out his fan, and used his body to block the eyes of Jiamu and the others.Yuanyang and Jia Zheng supported Jia's mother, so naturally they couldn't see the tricks on the fan.

But Zhifu Du saw the words on the fan: The Lai family, the chief executive of Rongfu, is extremely greedy.

It is not stupid to be the magistrate of Shuntian Prefecture.If Du Zhifu had thought that Jia She had come back to the mansion and found out the theft, just looking at the words on the fan, he would have known that Jia She had come prepared.

Du Zhifu didn't know that Jia She had changed the core, and he had heard about the rumors about Rongguo Mansion.But looking at Jia She's words and deeds today, they are quite different from the rumors. Prefect Du guessed that Jia She must be a person who can tolerate and plan.People like this are often ruthless and able to accomplish things. Prefect Du thought that he couldn't afford to offend Jia Amnesty, so he made up his mind.

Jia Amnesty's fan must have been prepared a long time ago, so he must have found out that the housekeeper had stolen it.I just need to check Lai's family according to what Jia Amnesty said, and the case may be easy to solve.

Naturally, this matter should not be publicized, so Du Zhifu said to Jia Mu: "Old Fengjun, it is better to catch the thief sooner rather than later. The next official will go back to arrange and send more people to interrogate. Old Fengjun, don't worry, I am an official. When handling a case, you must restrain your subordinates and don't let them gossip. I also ask Lao Fengjun to restrain the people in the house, and it is better not to walk around during this time."

Jia Mu only thought about her decades-long career, and heard what the Prefect Du meant, agreeing to handle the case while maintaining the reputation of the family, so she nodded and said, "Master Du, go quickly, I won't delay Mr. Du's handling of the case."

Prefect Du hurriedly bid farewell as if he had received a pardon.Before going out, he cupped his hands to bid farewell to everyone, and gave Jia Amnesty a vague look.The successor of the Rongguo Mansion is very different from the rumors outside.

Jiamu's private treasury has a huge amount of property, no less than one million.Du Zhifu didn't dare to be careless. After returning to the magistrate's yamen, he mobilized the yamen servants and divided them into three groups.

I went all the way to visit the people who were active near Ningrong Street, and asked if anyone had brought large things out of Rongguo Mansion in recent days.After all, the belongings lost by Jia Mu and Jia She were to be loaded into cars, and they were also the contents of many carts. As long as they were transferred out of the house, they could always find clues.

All the way directly went to surround the yard of Lai's house on the back of Ningrong Street, and sealed off his yard.

The other route came to the Rongguo Mansion, mainly to prevent the servants of the Rong Mansion from going out to report and pass on messages.As for the suspected things still in the mansion, Mother Jia ordered people to search them.

In this case, the Lai family was the first to have clues.Lai's family is Jia's mother's companion, a servant of several generations, and his whole life belongs to the master. How much property can he have?But after the government searched, the property of the Lai family was abundant, and the magistrate Du thought that his worth was not as good as one-tenth of that of a housekeeper in the Rongguo Mansion.

The master rewarded the servants with mostly small ingots of gold and silver, and clothing materials, but the furniture, ornaments, and hanging calligraphy and paintings of the Lai family were all excellent products. Not only that, Lai Nanny, Lai Da, and Lai Er also had servants to wait on them. , life is really no worse than that of the master and wife of ordinary wealthy families.

Finding this, Du Zhifu also knew that there must be something tricky in the Lai family. Thinking of Jia's mother's reticence, he quietly took people away and sealed up the finances.

In the Rongguo Mansion, Mother Jia had already passed the messages back and forth to the servants of the various concierges, asking who had carried large things out in the past few days.The answers I got were all cursing and swearing that I hadn't seen it.

Mother Jia also firmly believed that there was no one who could steal large things from Rongguo Mansion without being noticed.Therefore, even though Jia's mother hated Jia She deeply, she also felt that what Jia She said still made sense in the mansion, and asked Jia Wang and his trusted mother-in-law to lead people to search around.

Seeing this group of people raiding the Rongguo Mansion in a hurry, Jia She couldn't help but think of the plot of raiding the Grand View Garden in the original novel.

Jia Shen naturally knew where the things were, and was not very interested in these dog-eat-dog incidents at first, but as a sufferer who lost things, Jia Shen inevitably had to be anxious, so he followed Jia Wang, Jia Zheng and his entourage to copy around. pick up.

At this time, there were only these masters in the Rongguo Mansion: Jia She had just passed the double filial piety of father and wife, and had not had time to renew his strings, so the long house only had an adult master, Jia Lian, and several aunts; the second house had Jia Zheng and his wife together. Jia Zhu and Jia Yuanchun have a pair of children.

There was no need to check the annexe where Jia Amnesty lived. The three annexes were empty and could not hide many things.

Needless to say, the main courtyard of Rongxitang where Jiamu lived was even more sweeping than the side room where Jia She lived.

The rest is uninhabited in Rongqing Hall, the West Courtyard used to be occupied by Jia Min, and after Jia Min left the pavilion, only a few housewifes were in charge of cleaning, and it was always empty on weekdays.The other small courtyards never lived in the master.After checking this way, I naturally found a lot of things.

No need to ask, everyone knows that these must be greedy from the officials, such as clothing, cloth, gold ingots, silver ingots, hairpin rings, bracelets, etc.There are many valuables among them, and even large ones such as small kang screens are hidden in empty courtyards and houses where no master lives, probably looking for opportunities to get out of the house.

The management of Rongguo Mansion is only chaotic, which can be seen.

"Brothers and sisters, you are really good at running the house!" Jia She said angrily.In fact, Jia She knew from the original work that Jia's mansion was in a mess and not in good shape.But as the sufferer, he was naturally going to be angry.

Finding this little thing is worthless compared to what Jia Mu and Jia She lost. Jia Wang ordered people to put away the things first, and then check them one by one when they are empty; past courtyard.

Until the large and small courtyards were inspected, only Daku and Jia Wang's private treasuries remained.

When Jia Mu was older, she became very angry again. She rested in the house by herself and did not come with her.But when she sent Nanny Lai here, she told Nanny Lai to try her best not to check the Daku; Jia Wang went back to the East Courtyard and knew that there was nothing missing in her house, but she has been in charge of Zhongfu for several years. There was a lot of stuffing into the private treasury, and she never dared to open the private treasury for inspection.

So after checking the three buildings next to the Rongqing Hall, Jia Wang deliberately said: "I have checked everything that needs to be checked, except for finding some little things, but I have no clue. I'm afraid the things have been discovered by someone long ago." It's been shipped outside, let's go back to the old lady."

If Jia Amnesty nods his head at this time, it means that his brain is sick.I saw Jia Amnesty looking in the direction of the East Courtyard and said: "Jia Cunzhou, I have checked all the yards in the house, but not your yard. I said you stole the things, but have I wronged you?"
