Mother Jia of the Red Chamber is Unkind

Zhou Rui's family was wondering what Jia Mu was doing with this solemn outfit, so someone sent word that Wang Ziteng and his wife asked to see him.Some of Zhou Rui's family understood, and looked at Mother Jia.

Mother Jia raised her eyebrows, but she simply asked people to come in to see her.

Wang Ziteng and his wife were a little surprised. Their sudden visit should have caught the old lady by surprise.Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived, the old lady rushed to summon them before their feet were firmly established.

Wang Ziteng is an old man with a calm face and a mustache. When thinking about things, he strokes his beard with his thumb and index finger.Wang Ziteng has two younger sisters, but their brother-sister friendship is not as cold as ordinary people, they are very close.He loved his younger sisters since he was a child, and he always held them in his hands.Now even the younger sisters are married, but every year during festivals, Wang Ziteng never forgets to ask his wife Zhen Shi to greet them.Today, Wang Ziteng saw with his own eyes how embarrassed his elder sister was when she returned to her mother's house. I'm afraid he will never forget it in his life.There is no escape from a reason, just be reasonable.Unexpectedly, the old lady of the Jia family was so ruthless, which frustrated her sister physically and mentally.It's simply too inhuman, too deceiving!

Wang Ziteng grabbed his wife and signaled that she could not lose.

Mrs. Zhen understood, and nodded to herself.She has always been a strong-willed person, and originally she would not get involved in the affairs of her sister-in-law's family, but Mrs. Zhen still remembered the humiliation she suffered when she came to Rong Mansion last time, so there is no reason not to report it.

At that time, my sister-in-law Wang was banned from Fahua Temple by Jia Mu.Zhen Shi came here to intercede, she thought it would help Mrs. Wang, even if she couldn't let the old lady get her out of the temple, at least the old lady would reduce Wang's punishment period.Zhen Shi never expected that after she left, the old lady of the Rong Mansion would force her to extend it by two months.Her face is worthless, but it's not helping her!This incident has always made Zhen feel quite humiliated, she did not have a good meal in the first few days, and even now she still feels that she cannot hold her head up in front of her husband.

When Mrs. Zhen came this time, she went straight to Jia's mother full of enthusiasm.

The husband and wife could be regarded as the same enemy, and they were fully prepared, and they stepped into Jia Mu's flower hall aggressively together.

"Ahaha, rare guest, rare guest." Jia Lian rushed to greet him with a smile all over his face.His father, Jia She, was not there, so he hurried over to help.

Wang Xifeng also laughed, and the husband sang and the wife followed, welcoming Wang Ziteng and his wife.

Wang Ziteng smiled slightly, as a response to their husband and wife.Zhen Shi wore a faint smile on her face the whole time, so faint that it was almost gone, and she didn't even look at Wang Xifeng directly.

Wang Xifeng twitched the corners of her mouth and insisted on smirking.If the old lady hadn't said that etiquette and rules could not be broken, she would have pounced on these so-called 'Wang Family' right now and turned them into shredded potatoes.

Wang Ziteng and his wife both visited Jia Mu.The first person replied neither humble nor overbearing, "Sit down and serve tea", and the couple looked at Jiamu at the same time, dumbfounded and extremely surprised.

Wang Ziteng was the first to react, thanked him, and sat down with his wife.He took a few sips of tea to calm the atmosphere, then smiled and looked up at Mother Jia. "Our husband and wife came to visit unexpectedly and caused you trouble."

"It's okay, it's boring to be idle." Jiamu smiled, seemingly in a good mood, and matched with her luxurious attire, it was a real shine.

Wang Ziteng was almost dazzled by the old lady in front of him, and politely said to her: "The younger generation saw you dressed up, and thought you were planning to go out. I'm really afraid that it's a bad luck for us to come."

"It is the basic etiquette to dress neatly and treat guests. Mr. Wang, you are an envoy of business affairs, don't you understand this truth?"

Wang Ziteng realized the sarcasm in Jia Mu's words, and his face was not very good-looking, but he was not easy to attack. He gritted his teeth and said dully, "I understand, of course I understand."

Zhen smiled and raised her voice, "Old lady, you have misunderstood my master's meaning. What he meant was that we are afraid that our husband and wife's sudden visit will delay your business. If there is no delay, it will be the best."

Jiamu nodded cheerfully, smiled and said to the two: "It doesn't matter if my old man is idle. If it's someone else's house, don't be so reckless again. It's better to post a few days in advance to let us know when you visit. "

The old lady satirized them several times for their lack of etiquette.Wang Ziteng couldn't bear it anymore, his face was extremely gloomy.Zhen also felt aggrieved and wanted to refute, but couldn't find a reason to refute, so she could only hold her mouth shut.

The two parties fell into silence, and Mother Jia was not idle, drinking tea leisurely, admiring the varied expressions of the two of them by the way.

Prince Teng was silent for a while, it was difficult to continue to endure, and decided to make a quick decision. "Today, our husband and wife came to discuss something with your old lady. The old lady must know that my eldest sister has returned to her mother's house, her forehead is swollen, and her foot is also injured."

The implication of Wang Ziteng's words is naturally to blame the Jia family for scolding Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Zhen's husband and wife followed, twitching the corners of their mouths and began to mournfully describe the tragic state of Mrs. Wang's injury.

After the couple made some remarks, they saw that Jia's mother had been silent, speechless, and consciously gained the upper hand.

Wang Ziteng breathed a sigh of relief, with a slight dissatisfaction emphasizing his voice: "The matter of Jinling Zhuangzi is indeed caused by the elder sister's housekeeper's mismanagement and negligence. I want to apologize for her, old lady. My daughter of the Wang family I made a mistake and didn't dare to quibble, it's me, the big brother, who didn't teach her well."

"My lord, how can I blame you for this. People are not sages and sages, so there is nothing wrong with me. My concubine has also been negligent, thanks to you, my lord, for being considerate of my concubine. My life is good, and I married into the Wang family. If, if... "Ms. Zhen didn't say the second half of the sentence, but took a special look at Jia's mother.

The couple sang and sang in unison, insinuating that the old lady was mean to her daughter-in-law, and by the way, they did not forget to compare and praise their own family.The Wang family is really like this, they will never forget their share in whatever they do.

Mother Jia thought it was interesting, moved her body to be active, and continued to listen with great interest.

Wang Ziteng and his wife finished singing, and saw that Jia's mother not only didn't mean to argue angrily, but also stared at them with a smile.The hearts of the two suddenly trembled, and they looked at each other, warning each other to be careful.

Wang Ziteng didn't expect Jia's mother to be so silent that she didn't even say polite words to him.Wang Ziteng was heartbroken, and continued: "Our Wang family will compensate my younger sister for the losses caused by Jinling Zhuangzi, and I would like to ask the old lady to be considerate of what happened to my eldest sister."

Wang Ziteng's words were just casual remarks, no normal person would let his daughter-in-law's natal family pay money.Wang Ziteng expected that Jia's mother would refuse, and when he said this, his tone was extremely harsh.

Jia Mu was overjoyed, and looked at Wang Ziteng with shining eyes: "It's hard for you to have a heart."

Wang Ziteng was taken aback, what did the old lady of Rongfu mean by this, did she agree or disagree?Zhen Shi didn't understand either, and looked at her husband.Wang Ziteng frowned, his face became more and more gloomy.

"As for me, I don't want the scandal caused by our two families to spread outside." Mother Jia then sighed again, her tone was very reluctant, and she meant to give alms.

This attitude made Wang Ziteng and his wife extremely dissatisfied.What is the scandal between our two families?When did the Wang family get involved with the Jia family?

Seeing that the couple were not angry, Jia's mother smiled and ordered someone to air out the crimes of Mrs. Wang she had listed, and also attached the testimony of Zhou Rui's family and the pleas of confession for wrongdoing in various places.The words and sentences are very clear and understandable at a glance.

"Since we are in-laws, I don't shy away from you. If the two of you have the patience and time, you can read the account books." Mother Jia ordered someone to put a stack of account books on Wang Ziteng and Zhen's family. On the table between the seats.

Wang Ziteng and his wife stared at the ledger and the crimes of those people, their faces pale.Mrs. Wang didn't explain so much to them!

"Kowtow, pierced feet, but she did it on her own, no one in the family would dare to force her." Jia Mu threw out a sentence, straightened her back and stood up, looking around at these crimes, countless.Pointing to these evidences, Mother Jia walked in, and said to Wang Ziteng and his wife with a smile, "Just look at these, you should also know how rampant your eldest sister is in Rongfu!"

Zhen's shivered, she was terrified, it's really embarrassing to send it to her door, sister-in-law is too embarrassing!

Wang Ziteng's expression was gloomy, and he tried to maintain his original state, but his heart was already turbulent, and he was ashamed to the extreme.Even if her younger sister did something wrong, she still came to apologize. The old lady of Rong Mansion really doesn't know how to flatter her, so she is not willing to give their Wang family some face.unacceptable!

No, he definitely can't lose the battle, and he can't lose his position in front of the people of Rongfu.Wang Ziteng narrowed his eyes fiercely, raised his hand and said to Jia Mu, "Your junior said long ago that the mistakes made by my Wang family will not be quibbled. I remember that when our family moved away from Jinling, Tuorong Mansion managed several Zhuangzi. It’s a first-class land, and it’s worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, isn’t it?”

Mrs. Zhen nodded hurriedly, "That's what happened, I've come back a long time ago, and I'm in charge of it."

"Look, old lady, we don't want this Zhuangzi anymore. It is right for me, the eldest brother, to make amends for my sister. In addition, I will send someone to send 2 taels of cash over at another day."

Jia Mu smiled, raised her eyebrows and said, "It doesn't matter if you have money or not. The most important thing is your attitude of pleading guilty. Your brother is indeed more capable than your sister."

Confession...the old lady of Rong Mansion really knows how to use words.It's all about ignoring their royal family's money, and humiliating him!Wang Ziteng gritted his teeth in hatred, but he could only bear it.This matter was his elder sister's fault, so she wouldn't be kicked out of the Rong Mansion when she was middle-aged.At that time, she is not the only one who will be ashamed, even he, the eldest brother, and even the entire Wang clan and female relatives will be ridiculed.Tens of thousands of taels of silver are willing to give up in pain, but he will give up in pain.

If he had known this, he might as well not have come.

What a proud man Wang Ziteng is. He has spent most of his life in the officialdom, and he can be regarded as an all-powerful figure.Back at home, he is even the biggest, and his wives, children and concubines have to worship him as a god.Unexpectedly, once he was ridiculed several times by an old lady, he even had to swallow his breath and suffer humiliation.Hateful!

Wang Ziteng couldn't stay any longer, got up and said goodbye to Jia Mu, and said that he would send Mrs. Wang back in a while.

Mother Jia sent them off with a smile: "You're welcome, it's fine to let her stay at her mother's house for a few more days."

Wang Ziteng turned pale when he heard this.Mrs. Zhen couldn't bear it long ago, and looked at the master in distress for help.The husband and wife bid farewell in a hurry, holding their breath all the way home.

When Wang Ziteng saw Mrs. Wang, he became very angry, and repeatedly scolded her for being useless and incompetent.It's not good for Mrs. Zhen to scold Mrs. Wang face to face, but she has resentment in her heart.She simply followed Wang Ziteng's scolding sound to every detail, so as not to let Mrs. Wang's ears be idle for a moment.

Mrs. Wang had been humiliated in the Rong Mansion, and went home to seek refuge, but she never expected that her eldest brother and sister-in-law would treat her like this.She was so sad and sad that she couldn't stop crying.Wang Ziteng and his wife did not understand, but intensified.Mrs. Wang lost her self-esteem and was so disappointed that her heart hit a pillar!

The Wang family was in a mess, and Wang Ziteng's face had never been so pale.A doctor was invited for diagnosis and treatment, and the couple was relieved that nothing serious happened.What's the matter with a married daughter who dies in her mother's house.

Wang Ziteng now somewhat believes what Jia Mu said, the swollen forehead and broken feet are all caused by Mrs. Wang herself.Where is the older sister who was well-behaved and considerate in the past?

Mrs. Zhen visited Mrs. Wang, held her breath to comfort her, and ran to report to Wang Ziteng: "Fortunately no one was killed, master, what shall we do next?"

"What should we do?" Wang Ziteng glared at Zhen Shi, and poured all the remaining anger on her, "What else can I do! Throw her back to Rong Mansion as soon as possible, if she really dies in our house, what will happen?" What Dead or alive, Wang Ziteng no longer taboos.For a younger sister who got married, Wang Ziteng lost tens of thousands of taels of silver for nothing, and was humiliated several times. His heart ached from irritability, and the brother-sister relationship was not important in front of her eyes.

Mrs. Zhen also felt sorry for the tens of thousands of taels of silver, but dared not criticize anything.She rolled her eyes, and suddenly thought of a way to reduce the loss, and said to Wang Ziteng, "I'll go and see her again."

Zhen Shi showed herself to be a "good sister-in-law" in front of Wang Ziteng, and turned to find Mrs. Wang, who was already sober, to paint.

When Mrs. Wang was not married, the old man of the Wang family was still alive and loved her the most. He once gave Mrs. Wang a picture of "The Heavenly King Delivering a Child" by the saint Wu Daozi as a dowry.Prince Teng is fond of painting in his spare time, and also likes the works of painting saints very much.It is hard to find a high price in the market, but this painting is worth a lot.When Mrs. Zhen came here, what she wanted was this painting.

Mrs. Wang has always regarded this as a treasure, and besides, it was given to her by the old man, so she would not be willing to give it away. She would feel pain if she looked at it twice more on weekdays.So when Mrs. Zhen mentioned this painting, Mrs. Wang instinctively resisted.

Mrs. Zhen took her hand, pretending to be humane and said: "Your elder brother is really angry with you this time, don't blame sister-in-law for talking about you, you have done things so unsmoothly, leaving so many excuses for people to pinch."

Mrs. Wang lowered her head and bit her lips. In fact, she didn't do things to the point of leaking water, but it wasn't too bad. If she made a mistake, it was on Zhou Rui's family. She trusted her too much.If she had been more ruthless and dealt with her early, she would not have ended up where she is today.

"What will you do in the future, you have to rely on your mother's family and your elder brother to help you support. This time your elder brother helped you out and lost tens of thousands of taels of silver, and your mother-in-law humiliated him several times. Can he not be angry? You also bear it, your elder brother laughed after a while, it hurts you as much as it should hurt. But in this matter, you have to make a statement with your elder brother, don't hurt him too much." Zhen's for that picture Painting, desperately trying to persuade Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang weighed her priorities, and considering the crisis she was facing, she decided to follow Zhen's words.When she came home the next day, she sent someone to give the painting to his eldest brother.

Wang Ziteng was really happy, most of his anger dissipated, and he gave half of the credit to Zhen Shi, praising her for being scheming.

Mrs. Wang was arranged by Jia Mu to be placed in the Buddhist hall of Lixiangyuan, and she was not allowed to go out.Only now did she know that she was banned, even if her elder brother paid him money.Mrs. Wang was in a hurry, so she asked someone to secretly send a message to Wang Ziteng.After waiting for ten days and half a month, I still haven't received a reply.Mrs. Wang gradually despaired, and Fang realized that her elder brother had already abandoned her.That being the case, then her sister-in-law coaxed her to take that painting for nothing!

Later, Yuan Chun was short of money in the palace, and Mrs. Wang didn't even think about the painting.But now he gave it away in vain.Mrs. Wang hates Mrs. Zhen so much, this guy is even more vicious than Mrs. Jia!She was going to settle accounts with Mrs. Zhen, but the four thick nuns at the door watched too closely, and she could only suffocate in the Buddhist hall, sobbing and venting her anger alone.

Her natal family has despised her, her in-laws have despised her a long time ago, and everyone has despised her!

She was cast aside by everyone!

Mrs. Wang knelt on the futon, facing the Buddha statue directly above the hall, weeping silently.Her only hope of turning around now is to hope that Yuan Chun in the palace will have a future.She has spent too much money on her eldest daughter, and there is no way out.Mrs. Wang kowtowed to the Buddha statue several times, crying bitterly, begging the Buddha to enlighten her and show her a clear way.Day after day, her life went like this...

The matter of ancient paintings could not escape Jiamu's ears, and Zhou Rui's family came to report to Jiamu immediately.

"Old lady, this painting is priceless." Zhou Rui's family felt heartbroken, and couldn't help feeling angry for the old master, Mrs. Wang, "The Wang family is too deceptive, it doesn't look like the second wife's family."

"Alright, tell her to understand what is right and what is wrong, and be sober." Mother Jia turned to Zhou Rui's family and asked if the money from the Wang family had been delivered.

Zhou Rui's family nodded, "All of them were converted into gold and sent over." After finishing speaking, she took out three gold ingots from her sleeve and gave them to Jia Mu.Mother Jia looked at the bottom of the gold ingot, and there was a small "Wang Family" printed on it as a logo.

"Old lady, someone is coming from the palace. The Eldest Master was called when he came back." Yuanyang just lifted the curtain from the outer room to show her head, and she couldn't wait to inform Jia Mu of the news.

Wang Xifeng came after, and said with a smile: "Second Master has gone too, so it's not good to neglect the eunuch who passed the decree. It would be the best if I can inquire about one or two by the way."

Jia's mother estimated that Xia Shouzhong was probably the eunuch who handed down the decree to confer Jia Yuanchun.In the original book, this eunuch is very powerful, he likes to pretend to be noble in front of others, but behind his back, he makes people come to him in the name of borrowing money or ask for money directly. He is definitely not a good master to serve.Therefore, Jia Yuanchun's appointment as a concubine only made Rongfu look good on the outside, but actually accelerated the decline of Rongfu.

Not long after, Jia She happily came to inform Jia Yuanchun of the concubine's news.The news also reached Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang happily wanted to come out to celebrate, but was dismissed by Jia's mother.

The people in the room were a little embarrassed for a while, and they didn't dare to mention Mrs. Wang, and turned around to happy things.Jia Lian sent the eunuch Xia Shouzhong away in person, then rushed over and said to Jia Mu with a smile, "There is no time for tea, and after delivering the decree, I took the little eunuchs with me. "

Jia Lian felt that Xia Shouzhong was really powerful at first glance. With such an arrogant attitude, he probably held a big position in the palace. If he didn't keep it, he was still a celebrity in front of the emperor.

Mother Jia handed over the gold in her hand to Wang Xifeng, "There is a total of 2000 taels of gold. There is no need to recast it. Just spend it in the palace and don't use it elsewhere."

Jia Amnesty was upset when he heard this. Could it be that the old lady is partial again?The Wang family was greedy for the public's money, and the Wang family lost some money, but they deliberately kept it and used it on the eldest daughter of the second room, which was unbearable.Of course Jia Amnesty was happy when the big girl became a concubine, but he didn't like the old lady's partiality.

"The money should be used without leaving a trace, understand?"

Wang Xifeng was very clever, and immediately understood what Jiamu meant, and nodded her head in agreement.

Jia Amnesty sat with a long face and tilted his head to one side, silently protesting silently.

Jia Mu didn't bother to talk to him about his pettiness, so she turned around and went to rest.

In the end, Jia Amnesty's protest was ineffective, and he returned to his room to complain to Mrs. Xing.Jia Lian and his wife were also called.Jia Amnesty said that their big house must be united.

Wang Xifeng always wanted to stand by Jia Mu's side. She completely admired Jia Mu, "The old lady must have her reasons for making such arrangements."

Jia Lian felt that what the daughter-in-law said was reasonable, so she nodded in agreement.

Jia Amnesty was dissatisfied and glared at Mrs. Xing.

In the case of Mrs. Wang, even if Mother Jia did something wrong, Mrs. Xing can only shrink her neck. What's more, what the old lady does seems to be quite reasonable, although she doesn't understand what the "reason" is. What.

"You guys let me down so much!" Jia She shouted sadly, with a helpless expression on his face.

Jia Lian smiled, helped his father to sit down, and comforted him: "There must be some reason for the 2 taels of silver. Think about it, it was only a few thousand taels back then, and the old lady refused to give it to the second room."

Jia Amnesty was also puzzled by this matter, so he just thought about it.Anyway, he can't make a fuss if he wants to, the whole family doesn't support him, hum!

Jia Amnesty went out for a stroll, and in the evening came to see Mother Jia as usual to say hello.Jia Mu was playing with a jade finger ring, the whole body was crystal clear and white, and it was a good thing at first glance.Jia Amnesty was about to leave after paying his respects, when Jia's mother stopped him suddenly.

Jia She turned around with a smile: "Mother, do you have anything to say?"

"I heard that you are forming a gang today?"

Clique?Jia Amnesty was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that what Jiamu was talking about was about him gathering people from the big room in the morning.He scratched his head embarrassingly, apologizing to Jia Mu.

Jia Mu smiled and gave the jade finger to Jia Amnesty.Jia Amnesty was very happy, so he put it on his thumb to measure, it was just right.The quality of the jade that pulls the finger is very good, which matches his identity very well.

"Don't just watch it, it's okay to learn riding and archery, it's also good to exercise your body. I heard that the princes in the palace like this. If you learn it, it will be useful in the future."

Jia She nodded cheerfully, and with Jia's mother's care and love, she has nothing wrong with her.

"You'll understand about the money sooner or later." Mother Jia muttered and sent him away.Jia Shele saluted Jia's mother again in joy, and told the maids to take good care of his mother before leaving.
