The first paparazzi in the Red Chamber
Chapter 90 Chapter 1 Paparazzi
Jia Amnesty immediately ordered people to investigate whether there were any rich and noble gentry near the capital who wanted to recruit a son-in-law.
Heizhu and others ran for a day, but they didn't find such news from anyone.After all, recruiting a son-in-law is a rare thing, and it is not surprising that you can't find it in the capital area for the time being.It must have been a period of careful investigation and patient waiting for this liar to find two marriages in succession.
The situation in Suzhou has yet to be further confirmed. Apart from the Yuzhou incident, Jia Amnesty can't find any other clues for the time being.So at present, he can only stick to the word "wait".I just hope that this liar is confident enough to dare to do a big job in the biggest rich and romantic place in the capital.
When Jia Amnesty was about to leave the neighboring house, it was getting late.After going downstairs, he turned his head to the backyard, when an arm suddenly stretched out, blocking his way.
Jia She raised his eyebrows and looked at the person who blocked him. He lowered his head at first, maybe he felt his gaze, and then slowly raised his head.
Jia Amnesty recognized it immediately, "Cao Lan?"
"Jia Enhou, you didn't expect me to come to you, did you?" Cao Lan looked tired, but her eyes stared at Jia Amnesty with great energy, wishing she could turn her gaze into a sharp sword and stab Jia She Amnesty's chest.
As soon as Zhu Mao and the others saw Cao Lan appearing, they immediately wanted to chase her away.
Cao Lan sneered, "Why, Mr. Jia is playing a big role. This neighbor's house doesn't allow me to enter, or is it because you are such a noble censor who forbids me to strike up a conversation?"
Jia Amnesty heard the irony in Cao Lan's words, and was not annoyed at all. Instead, he smiled happily, and frankly admitted that what Cao Lan said was true. "With your current status, you really don't deserve to talk to me. But fortunately, I'm a man of the world, so I can listen to you."
Cao Lan was stunned for a moment, then realized immediately, clenched her fists angrily and forbeared.
Jia Amnesty signaled to his subordinates with his eyes that someone would open the curtain.Jia Amnesty took the lead in striding towards the backyard, followed by Cao Lan.Jia Amnesty then sat down in the gazebo in the yard, and let Cao Lan speak as soon as he had something to say, and he listened attentively.
Jia Amnesty didn't let Cao Lan sit down, but Cao Lan walked to the seat opposite Jia Amnesty and sat down.Apparently he was used to being the Minister of the Household Department, and he forgot that as a commoner, he could not sit on an equal footing with Jia Amnesty.
Zhu Mao and others were not polite, and immediately scolded Cao Lan, reminding him of his identity.
Cao Lan was embarrassed, but her face was stiff and she didn't get up.
Jia She smiled lightly and said it was okay, and then asked Cao Lan why she was looking for her.
"Since I came to look for you today, I will not hide anything. I will tell you one thing and say another thing."
Jia Amnesty: "You have already said a nonsense."
"Is what happened that day in the Xiayang Tower a trick of yours?" Cao Lan continued, "Even if you don't admit it, I'll assume it was you."
Jia Amnesty raised the corner of his mouth, "Then what else can I say?"
Cao Lan sneered: "I admire you for having such a scheming heart. If you lose, you lose. There is nothing undeniable."
Jia She lowered his eyes, picked up the tea that the boy had just served, and blew on it.
Cao Lan also picked up the tea, uncovered the cover and smelled it, it turned out to be Chen Cha, and returned it to the table without saying a word, lamenting with a wry smile that she is really being bullied by a dog now.
Jia Amnesty put the teacup he just drank on the table without covering it.
Cao Lan glanced at Jia Amnesty's teacup, and her face immediately changed.After Cao Lan became a nobleman, she has studied tea tasting since she was a child.Now one only needs to look at the tea soup in Jia She's bowl to know that Jia She's tea is the same as his.Everyone just treats people equally, but it is because of this that I have a sour and ignorant ugly face.
Jia Amnesty: "What else do you have to say?"
Cao Lan was stunned, no longer trying to save face as before, she stared blankly at Jia She, opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"I'm very busy." Jia She said.
Cao Lan took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, she said to Jia Amnesty, "It's true that Zhen She and I were at fault for the Xiayang Tower incident, but our actions were not malicious. We just saw that you and Song Xi were constantly breaking up, and we didn't want to Seeing that you couldn't cut it clearly, you were used by Song Xi and hurt again. Because of this, the two of us wanted to help you once out of good intentions. I never thought that I did something wrong and was discovered by you stupidly. Both Zhen She and I deserve it. I came here today just to tell you, don’t misunderstand that it’s her who is the mastermind because of our calculations. In fact, it has nothing to do with her, it’s all on my own. .”
"Who?" Jia She asked.
Cao Lan slightly closed her mouth.
Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Jia Amnesty got up and left.
"I said," Cao Lan hurriedly said, "I will leave Beijing and return to my hometown in a few days. After I go, I am afraid that I will never go to Beijing again in this life. When people live to middle age, what is wealth and glory? I have experienced all the storms, and I have no other regrets. I am worried about her alone. After I leave, there will be no one in the capital who can help her. If Lord Jia is willing to help her regardless of the past, I am willing to do my best The family wealth is with you, and I kowtow three times to formally apologize to you."
"All the family wealth?" Jia She looked back at Cao Lan in surprise, "Lord Cao took the initiative to resign, which can be regarded as saving the last bit of dignity. The Cao family is a century-old noble family with a rich family background. You can still have face when you return to your hometown. .It is a good result to take good care of the elderly in the future, so why bother asking for trouble like this.”
Cao Lan kept her mouth shut for a while, and then said embarrassingly, "I told you, I can't let anyone go."
"If you can't let go of this person, then others are not human. Your wife and children are not human anymore? The family property is not yours alone, it is left to you by your ancestors and your descendants. Why should you squander it alone. Persuasion Hurry up and go back and forth, I don't want to see people with mental illness!" Jia Amnesty sent off.
Cao Lan was stunned, "Could it be that you know who I'm talking about?"
Jia She narrowed his eyes and stared at him.
Cao Lan suddenly shuddered, and turned around as if frightened, and then looked at Jia She with a horrified expression, "Could it be that you, you have never had a quarrel with Song Xi, Everything is just a show, just to plot against us?"
"I advise you not to worry about the affairs of the capital." Jia She said coldly, and after finishing speaking, he went away with his hands behind his back.
Cao Lan gave a crazy look, her eyes were about to pop out, and she kicked her legs and rushed towards Jia She's back.Zhu Mao, Gui San and others quickly stopped him.Cao Lan didn't care about these things, and yelled frantically for Jia Amnesty to stop, and he wanted to settle accounts with him.However, like a weak chicken, he was firmly controlled by ghosts and others, no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't take half a step.
Cao Lan got angry, so she cursed Jia She, and shouted even louder: "Do you think it's an honor for you to follow him? Let me tell you, anyone who has been with him will end up in a bad end! If you don't believe me, check it out." , all will die! You will only be worse! Hahahahaha..."
After that, Cao Lan's laughter stopped abruptly.Gui San and the others stuffed shoes into Cao Lan's mouth and blocked Cao Lan's mouth.
After Jia She entered the carriage and sat down, Zhu Mao came to ask Jia She how to deal with Cao Lan.
"As usual." Jia She said calmly.
Zhu Mao understood right away, and agreed bluntly, and ordered someone to press Cao Lan to go to Gyeonggi Prefecture, intending to sue him for offending and insulting the court officials.
Seeing this, Cao Lan was so anxious that she struggled to run away.How could Gui San and others give Zhu Mao a chance, so they sent him to the prison in Gyeonggi Province.Cao Lan was so anxious that she jumped on the spot and yelled for someone to let him go.He still had very important news that had not been passed to the palace, and he was very afraid that the person in the palace didn't know what kind of person Jia She was, and would mistrust him later.
Since the death of Wang Ziteng, the prisons in Gyeonggi Province have been checked many times and they are clean.The personnel employed in the prison are all sensible and know how to advance and retreat, and no one cares about Cao Lan at all.Even if he promised to spread the news to important people with tens of thousands of taels of silver, these jailers also knew the importance of saving their lives and would never dare to mess with them.
After Song Xi found out about Cao Lan, he immediately sent Hengshu to ask Jia Amnesty if there was anything he could help.Jia Amnesty refused.
Song Xi has not moved since then.
The next day, Jia Amnesty came to set up a province for Jia Mu.
Mother Jia looked at Jia Amnesty, and sighed vicissitudes of life. After receiving his gift, she didn't ask any more questions, and just sent him to go about her own business.
At this time, the mother-in-law came back and forth: "Cao's mother and son came outside the gate of the mansion. They didn't cry or make a fuss. They just knelt quietly on the street opposite the gate of Rongfu. It's early in the morning, that's all. Later At that time, there are many people on the street, I'm afraid there will be people watching to join in the fun."
Jia's mother glanced at Jia She, seeing that Jia She didn't mean to say much, she sent him to go to work, and just leave the matter to Feng girl.
Jia Amnesty nodded, and after thanking Mother Jia, he really left.
When Jia Amnesty's carriage drove out of Rongfu, the mother and son of the Cao family cried and kowtowed, begging Jia Amnesty to let Cao Lan go.However, the carriage was driving very fast, and disappeared in the streets of Ningrong Street in a flash.
Cao's mother and son stopped crying and continued to kneel quietly on the street without saying a word.
"Just tell people to leave quickly, just remember one thing, don't hurt people." Jia Mu said.
After Wang Xifeng listened carefully to the situation outside, she hurriedly stopped Jia's mother, "This Mrs. Cao's family is not easy to deal with. Her husband was imprisoned for offending our master. She has learned this lesson, and now she can Kneeling silently at the gate of our mansion on purpose, not to make trouble. If we really make a move, we will be caught by others, or let the old man provoke criticism for nothing, it is not worthwhile. The old man has just been implicated by Zhen She and those low-spirited people , I just escaped from the gossip, if someone says something at this time, it will really ruin the reputation of the Grand Master."
Mother Jia nodded, feeling that Wang Xifeng was more considerate, and asked her, "Then how should we deal with it?"
"Don't worry, old ancestor. Since you entrusted me with this matter, I will definitely handle it well. Just a little, I'm afraid I won't be able to play cards with old ancestor today." Wang Xifeng said with a smile.
"You girl, what time is it? It's fine if I don't play cards for the rest of my life, and go and deal with your father-in-law's affairs, I have a reward here." Jia Mu laughed and said.
Wang Xifeng saluted with a smile all over her face, then turned around and left.
In about an hour, thirty or forty lively people had already surrounded the gate of Rong Mansion.They inquired about good things, and heard from Mrs. Cao's family that her husband was sent to Gyeonggi Province because Jia Amnesty made things difficult for her.Everyone looked at the four children who were kneeling with Mrs. Cao's family, their faces were pale, and they were almost fainting. They were very distressed.
Then someone couldn't help sighing: "It's another big deception by being an official. It's not unusual to see similar things in our capital. It's just pity that these children also suffered. The youngest two are only three years old and five years old. Year-old."
"Then Cao Lan has voluntarily resigned and pleaded guilty for what he did before, but Mr. Jia still doesn't let it go. Could there be some conspiracy in it?"
"There's no need to guess? It must be that Jia She has a grudge against Cao Lan and is plotting against him on purpose." Someone whispered and guessed.
Not long after, the west corner gate of Rong Mansion opened, and the women and servants came out one after another, each carrying something in their hands.
Seeing this, the onlookers hurriedly dispersed.
The servants of Rongfu quickly set up a simple thatched shed by the roadside. In the shed, exquisite mahogany tables and stools were placed, and delicious snacks, melons and fruits were placed on the table, as well as a pot of herbal tea.
Mrs. Yin smiled and asked Cao's mother and son to rest in the shed, "Look at the rising sun, it's very easy to suffer from heat stroke in this summer. Our second grandma specifically said that you can bear this crime." , the four little ones around you can't bear it, no matter how wronged we adults are, we can't wrong the child. Tsk tsk, look at this poor child, his face is sweating so much, his lips are white, he shouldn't suffer this .”
Mrs. Yin squatted in front of the youngest child, wiped the sweat off her head with a handkerchief, then turned to ask Mrs. Cao's family: "I wonder if this servant can take my brother to the shed to have a rest and eat a piece of watermelon?"
Seeing this, the scattered people gathered again.Looking at the youngest of the four children, she really looked a little scary, so they all suggested to Mrs. Cao's family to agree.
The eldest wife of the Cao family didn't expect that the Rong Mansion would entertain her with such a thing. She pursed her lips and lowered her head, crying on her knees and begging Mrs. Yin to intercede for her to let Master Jia let his husband go.
Mrs. Yin: "The old slave is a vulgar and vulgar person. He doesn't know anything, but he also knows the principle of 'the state owns the state law, and the family has the family rules'. The thing that Mr. Cao offended our adults is that how many people in the neighbor's house People have seen it with their own eyes and heard it with their own ears, and they can’t fake it. Since Master Cao did something wrong, shouldn’t he be allowed to bear the consequences that he should bear? Fu Fa, isn’t it a mess.”
When the surrounding audience heard this, they felt that it was very reasonable, and nodded one after another.It is also said that Cao Lan's wife's move is a bit excessive. This is obviously to pretend to be pitiful, to gain sympathy, and to go beyond the law to take advantage of it without punishment.
"Why is this? Everyone is bound by the law. Why should your husband ask for sympathy when something happens?"
"That's right. I think the Rong Mansion is kind enough. They even prepared such good snacks and fruits to entertain you. It's really doing the utmost kindness to your mother and son."
"Hmph, I didn't expect that Cao Lan was not very good, and his wife was so shameless. It seems that it really is 'not a family, don't enter the family', so the family is not normal."
The eldest wife of the Cao family was so angry at what she said, she was too embarrassed to stay any longer, so she hurriedly picked up the youngest son, pulled the other two older ones, called the eldest son, and prepared to leave.
Mrs. Yin hurriedly called a carriage and asked their mother and son to get on the carriage.
Seeing this, everyone admired the Rong Mansion even more, but they couldn't help scoffing at the actions of Mrs. Cao's family.The tactic of deliberately pretending to be weak to attract sympathy is really insidious, and they were almost deceived.Naturally, everyone had no sympathy for Mrs. Cao's family, and they sighed and scolded for a while, so they should disperse.
Mrs. Yin specially prepared ice water in the car.
Mrs. Yin wet the face towel, wiped the children's faces to cool off the fever, and then persuaded the Cao family: "Let me say something that is not pleasant, the wife should dispose of the house happily, and take the children back to their hometown as soon as possible to resettle. "
"My husband hasn't returned yet, so how can I enjoy myself and live alone." The eldest wife of the Cao family said with red eyes and tears.
Mrs. Yin leaned close to Mrs. Cao's family and whispered something into her ear.
The face of the eldest wife of the Cao family changed drastically, and she rounded her already red eyes: "Is what you said true?"
"It's absolutely true. Master Cao said to our master himself yesterday that he is willing to spend all his wealth to let our master help the person in his heart." Mrs. Yin said this with a normal tone.
Cao Qingming, the uncle of the Cao family, is seventeen this year, and he is already sensible. Hearing Mrs. Yin's words, he can make a guess in his heart.
The eldest wife of the Cao family didn't say much because of the blow, she just covered her face with her handkerchief and cried.
Seeing her mother so sad, the uncle of the Cao family frowned even deeper.
After the carriage arrived at Cao's house, Mrs. Yin watched the five Cao family's mother and son enter the mansion, and then boarded the carriage and went back.
At dusk, when Jia She returned home, Mrs. Yin told Jia She what had happened.
Jia Amnesty couldn't help praising Wang Xifeng's response. Her actions not only reflected the benevolence and righteousness of the Rongfu, but also drove the Cao family's mother and son away quietly.Jia She ordered someone to pick out a pair of vases from the storeroom and send them to her. He knew that Wang Xifeng liked these rich and valuable things, and rewarding her was naturally to match what she liked.
Mrs. Yin said again: "Your maidservant has something to accuse. This maidservant told Mrs. Cao's family what Mr. Cao said about spending all his wealth, just to tell her to give up and leave Beijing as soon as possible."
"Did you tell me who that person is?" Jia Amnesty looked at Mrs. Yin.
Mrs. Yin hurriedly bowed and said: "I dare not, I just follow Master Cao's words. I think the eldest wife of the Cao family knows it well. When I mentioned that I am the one in Master Cao's heart, her face changed drastically. "
Jia She smiled, "You did a great job. Now that I have people like you who are useful, it saves me a lot of worry and I am very pleased." Jia She asked Mrs. Yin what reward she wanted, and Mrs. Yin hurriedly knelt down. She made an unfeeling request, and she really wanted her little grandson to be Baoyu's servant, so that she could have the opportunity to accompany Baoyu to study in Songshan.
"Even if you told me about this earlier, I would have responded. It is a good thing that more people in the mansion are studying. This is not a reward. You can think of another thing and tell me later." Jia She said, and sent someone Sending Wang Yongchun, the grandson of Mrs. Yin, to Songshan College.
Jia She then called Dongsun and asked her: "I told you about your work this morning, but it's done?"
Dong Sun smiled and agreed, Dang even went out, and came back after a while, with an extra food box in his hand.
The winter bamboo shoots brought four plates of dim sum from the food box. The plates were made of plain bamboo and wood in a rectangular shape. They were not too big or small. There were only two pieces of dim sum on each plate. Flowers in different styles on white.
Jia Amnesty chose the most beautiful one, then took out a red flower from another plate, put it on this plate, and made two flowers.
Jia Amnesty immediately asked Zhu Mao to send the plate of dim sum to the Song Mansion.
Song Xi had just had dinner, and the Rong Mansion always pays attention to food. In addition, Hengshu recently found that his master has a bad appetite, so he specially asked him to spend more time on the food tonight.Unexpectedly, their master only took two bites of a table of dishes prepared with such painstaking efforts, and then put down his chopsticks.
Heng Shu served tea, and then remained silent.
"Master, someone from the Rong Mansion is here."
Song Xi still looked at the memorial in his hand without making any statement.
Heng Shu glanced at Song Xi, then went out, saw Zhu Mao smiling and carrying a food box, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, "He's finally here."
While handing over the food box, Zhu Mao asked puzzledly, "Why, you knew I was coming?"
"I've been looking forward to it for a long time." Heng Shu looked at the pig's hair, and then said, "What's in it, our master can't eat well these days, and it has reduced a lot."
Zhu Mao pursed his mouth, "That may not be of much use. Our master didn't send much food, just a small plate of snacks. It probably won't make your adults fat."
"Snacks are very good, even a single hair is good." After Heng Shu said, he brushed off the pig hairs and waited a while, then he entered the house with a food box and told Song Xirong that the mansion had sent some snacks.
Song Xi was just dipping his pen in the ink, his eyes were lowered to write the memorial seriously, but he didn't say a word.
Heng Shu didn't dare to do anything wrong, he just took out the plate of dim sum from the food box, put it on the table, then quietly backed away, and returned the empty food box to Zhu Mao.
Zhu Mao smirked and asked: "How is it, have you eaten, master?"
"Not yet, the master is busy processing the memorial, you should go back first." Heng Shu said.
Zhu Mao responded in disappointment, stretched his neck and looked in the direction of the study, and said goodbye to Heng Shu.
After returning to Rong Mansion, Zhu Mao reciprocated Jia Amnesty and retired to rest.
After Jia She was busy with the matter at hand, he looked up at the vast night outside the window in a trance.After a long time, he took a shower and changed clothes, and rested on the couch.
After Dongsun extinguished the candles in the old man's room, he closed the door softly before returning to his room.
There was silence in Rongxi Hall.
Song Xi wrote until his eyes were tired, so he put down the pen, and while reading the content on the notebook, he reached out to pick up the teacup and drink tea.
After Song Xi finished his tea, when he saw that the ink was dry, he closed the booklet, got up and was about to leave the study.When he walked to the door, he glanced at the things on the table out of the corner of his eye, suddenly remembered, turned back and walked to the edge of the table.
I thought there were just two pieces of ordinary snacks on the plate, but after a closer look, I found something else.
A trace of astonishment flashed across Song Xi's originally indifferent face, and then it cleared up, with a helpless smile on the corner of his mouth, which was also mixed with a hint of joy and a bit of pampering.
There are two characters written on the two snacks, one is "heart" and the other is "magic".
Song Xi hooked the corners of his lips, first picked up the snack with "heart" written on it, stuffed it into his mouth, and then ate the "magic" heartily.Song Xi strode out immediately, asked Hengshu to prepare the car, and immediately went to Rongfu.
After arriving at Rong Mansion, Song Xi wanted to come back tomorrow when he learned that Jia Amnesty had rested.Seeing this, Yin Po hurriedly invited Song Xi to Rongxi Hall.
"Master has been looking out of the window before going to bed. I think he is waiting for your lord. If your lord leaves like this tonight, I'm afraid that when you get up early tomorrow, the master will regret that he went to bed early. You are here. Anyway, please come in and say hello." .” The Indian lady bowed.
Before he could finish speaking, Song Xi was already walking towards the door of Rongxi Hall.
When Jia She on the bed heard the sound, he immediately sat up and asked in the dark, "But he's here?"
After Jia She said that, he was about to bend down to the ground, but he bumped into his arms.Jia Amnesty was unsteady, and instinctively grabbed Song Xi's sleeve, smelling the familiar scent of plum blossoms, Jia Amnesty didn't need to identify who was coming.
Song Xi clasped Jia She's waist tightly with both hands, immediately put his lips on Jia She's mouth, and then violently pressed him on the couch, making a toss.He didn't give up until the hoarse voice of the panting person under him became smaller, he put his arms around Jia She, and kissed Jia She's lips again and again, full of lust.
"Satisfied." Before Song Xi could ask, Jia She took the initiative to answer first.
Song Xi smiled, "Then are you satisfied with the top or the bottom?"
Jia Amnesty stretched out his hand and immediately pinched Song Xi's lips, "This mouth is still not clean after eating my snacks."
"What I eat is the 'heart demon'. How can I be clean? Naturally, it will become more and more dirty." Song Xifu lay on Jia She's body, biting his lip, blowing the thin and hot breath against Jia She's ears, Gently told Jia Amnesty that he was going to be 'dirty' again.
Then it was another toss.
This kind of exercise is really a good way to hypnotize. After taking a bath, Jia She closed his eyes and fell asleep without thinking about anything.Song Xi was not greedy enough, facing a sleeping beauty who had just bathed, he endured several times before he continued to attack.
In the morning, Mother Jia sent a few boxes of exquisite breakfast.These things were originally prepared by the kitchen for Jiamu, because Jiamu was very happy when she heard that Song Xi stayed in Rongfu last night, she knew that Song Xi's food was exquisite.On the other hand, Jia Amnesty did not have high requirements for food, and was very casual, so that the meals made in Rongxitang's kitchen became rough.Mother Jia was worried that Song Xi would not be able to have a good breakfast, so she gave up all the delicious food from her side.Even if she eats later by herself, she is also willing.
After breakfast, Song Xi went to thank Jia's mother in person, and then asked Jia Amnesty if there was anything wrong today.
"There are some chores, but nothing major." Jia She said.
"Then let's have a good chat, what is your demon that I devoured?" Song Xi said.
Jia Amnesty glanced at Song Xi, "You really want to know?"
"I made a good guess." Song Xi approached Jia Amnesty solemnly, "You are really checking me out this time."
Not the tone of the question, but a very positive statement.
Jia She nodded frankly, "I wanted to mention it to you last time, but then it was hard to speak up when there were idlers. If you want to hear it today, then I will explain it clearly."
"Some things are meaningless if they are too clear." Song Xi chuckled, "I should ask someone to sew that mouth of King Huainan on."
"It seems that you already know." Jia Amnesty frowned, and the look on Song Xi's face didn't change much, and his heart became a little calmer. "I didn't mean to dig up your old stories, but..."
"Don't just stop, I know what your temperament is, it's for my own good that you don't dare to mention it. If you want to blame, you should blame those talkatives," Song Xi sneered, "I am a bit cold-tempered, but I am not as cold as the legend It’s like an exaggeration. I do hold grudges about what happened back then, but it’s not to the point of killing anyone I see. Otherwise, do you think that a fool like King Huainan would live well to this day?”
"If you say that, I should apologize to you." After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he was about to salute to Song Xi.
Song Xi hurriedly stopped him, "I said earlier that I don't care about apologizing, it's useless to pay with flesh! You have to take good care of me on the next rest day. The wild bath last time was very interesting. I want to come again." , I haven't done it in the woods yet, you can try it."
Jia She glared at him with a hot face.
Song Xi was very savvy, so he took it as Jia She's acquiescence, and turned to talk to him about the business, "I really don't know why those 32 court ladies committed suicide back then. As for Zhen She's death, there is nothing to mention. He deserved to die. The end of the person who provoked me should be like this. It's a pity that he caught the mouse and started teasing him. Before he had enough fun, he died first."
Jia Amnesty heard what Song Xi meant by saying that he hadn't done anything to Zhen Shezhen yet, so he asked him why he sent someone to find Zhen She.
"Let him betray Cao Lan." Song Xi said.
Jia Amnesty looked at Song Xi in puzzlement. Cao Lan has been forced to resign because of his style of work, and he was imprisoned yesterday. What else can he do with someone like him?
"It's just boring. I just want to watch them fight in the nest. It's not interesting. By the way. Have you decided what to write in this month's "Secrets of Neighbors"?"
Seeing that Song Xi suddenly changed the subject, Jia She knew that he must have something to say later, so he told Song Xi about the case of the son-in-law defrauding money, "But it will take some time to find out the truth. I can't catch up with this issue. I have been thinking about what new case to fill in these two days."
"I heard that Cao Lan's wife came to your house to make trouble, but you cleverly dismissed it?" Seeing Jia She nod, Song Xi continued, "A few days ago, I sent spies into Cao Lan's mansion to investigate. In addition to the number of ways Cao Lan contacted the concubine Xian in the Qing Dynasty, an unexpected incident was found. Cao Lan's eldest son, Cao Qingming, was not Cao Lan's biological son, and Cao Lan's wife, Shi Shi, was not the biological daughter of Shan Guogong. .”
"You speak too fast." Jia Amnesty immediately prepared a pen and paper, and asked for confirmation, "Then Cao Qingming is Shi's biological son?"
"No, Cao Qingming is a child brought back by the Shi family from outside." Song Xi continued, "The other three children of the Cao family are all concubines, but they are all fostered under Shi's name and taught as legitimate sons."
"That means the Shi family can't give birth? But she is Cao Lan's official wife, and there are bastards in the family who can be fostered under her name. As long as she doesn't die, her status will not be shaken. Why do you want to have a fake son?"
Song Xi: "I don't know, my people only know about this matter by listening to Mrs. Shi and the old woman beside me by chance. I guess the specific reason can only be found out with your ability."
"Lord Song is absurd, but disrespectful." Jia She said casually.
Song Xi stared at Jia She, fascinated by his semi-serious appearance.
Jia Amnesty was furiously stared at by Song Xi, and asked him what was wrong.
Song Xi: "Since you respectfully call me Master Song, you should behave like a subordinate and submit to my despotic power."
After Song Xi finished speaking, he reached into Jia Amnesty's collar and squeezed it lightly.
Jia Amnesty shuddered, and hurriedly pulled Song Xi's hand out, "It's in broad daylight, it's terrible!"
"I want someone, not life." Song Xi took the opportunity to kiss Jia She on the cheek, obviously feeling that Jia She's cheek was much hotter than usual, knowing that he had reacted, Song Xi rubbed his hand down.
"If you do this again, I'll call someone." Jia Amnesty immediately jumped up from his seat and confronted Song Xi defensively.
"Shout! It's another feeling to hear that someone is watching," Song Xi generously walked up to Jia Amnesty, and continued to use his hands to take advantage of him.
Jia Amnesty: "You are really shameless."
Song Xi: "What's the use of face, you are enough."
Jia Amnesty: "..."
What else can he say about him!
Jia She was groaned by Song Xi's confusion, turned his head, and went to the couch with Song Xi again, doing several different tricks and tossing around, and it took a long time before it was over.
The two dressed again.
Jia She then had the opportunity to ask Song Xi how he knew that the Shi family was not the biological daughter of Duke Shan.
"No, I still know. I also heard that Shi and others muttered about it. I'm also curious about the specific reason. When you find out, you should tell me as soon as possible." Song Xi laughed.
Jia Amnesty lay on the couch weakly, "Lazy, I don't want to move."
"Look at you, you are old, your physical strength is not good enough, and you still have the guts to say that you should move, but it really doesn't work." Song Xi smiled and patted Jia She on the back.
"What does it mean to be old?" Jia She glared at him, "You think I'm old?"
"It doesn't matter if you are old, no one will look at you, only I want you." Song Xi teased him with a tease.
Jia Amnesty: "It's not a thing."
"You are a thing." Song Xi replied with a smile immediately.
"Spit out the snacks I gave you. I think it's better for us to keep calm and not see each other." After Jia She said, he stretched out his hand to ask for it.
Song Xi squinted at Jia She: "I can't spit it out, or you can help me."
After Song Xi finished speaking, he brought his lips to Jia She's mouth, opened his mouth slightly, and let Jia She's tongue come in.
……
Three days later, the black pig cast a wide net, broke his leg, and finally seized the evidence that the housekeeper of Shan Guogong's mansion had stolen and sold the master's things. 's secret.
Black Pig: "Twenty or so years ago, Shan Guogong's family still lived in their hometown, Lingzhou, and had not moved to the capital. At that time, it was popular for the dignitaries in Lingzhou to raise small birds at home."
Jia Amnesty knew it was definitely not the literal meaning, so he asked, "Keeping little birds?"
"It's a young girl, or a younger Yangzhou skinny horse. She was brought back to the mansion to raise and play at the age of twelve or thirteen. When she was older, she would break the melon when she was sixteen or seventeen. Speaking of it, it is like Tongfang A maid is almost the same, but it is more fun to raise than a servant girl."
Song Xi then added: "I do know a little bit. These girls are usually raised in the master's study room and served in a special way. I met him once at the Wang's house in Dongping County. He must have raised four of them. 'Birds', regardless of the four seasons, they can only serve people in the study wearing a layer of thin white gauze, which is no different from being naked, and it is just a little more hazy beauty. This kind of fun is extremely boring!" Song Song Xi lightly laughed and mocked.
Jia Amnesty: "Hehe."
Black Pig: "Shi Shi is such a 'little bird'. He and the other three girls were raised in Shan Guogong's other garden, but not many people know about it. Among the four, only Shi Shi's The appearance of the facial features is almost similar to the youngest daughter of Duke Shan. Later, the youngest daughter of Duke Shan died suddenly. Duke Shan was involved in a case of favoritism and fraud. He was asking the Cao family to help solve the problem, fearing that his daughter was about to get married. But he couldn't marry into Cao's family, which made Cao's family feel frustrated and couldn't help him wholeheartedly, so they recognized Shi as their daughter and married her to the capital.
It was seven or eight years after this that Shan Guogong's family moved to the capital.Shi seldom went back to her mother's house after she got married, because people in the previous mansion felt that her appearance had changed, explaining that it was because she hadn't seen her for a long time, and in addition, there were Mrs. Shan and his wife who were helping to cover her up. His identity has not been exposed for ten years. "
After the black pig finished speaking, he continued: "By the way, I also found out that these 'little birds' in captivity have drank special medicine since they were young, so they can't have children."
Heizhu and others ran for a day, but they didn't find such news from anyone.After all, recruiting a son-in-law is a rare thing, and it is not surprising that you can't find it in the capital area for the time being.It must have been a period of careful investigation and patient waiting for this liar to find two marriages in succession.
The situation in Suzhou has yet to be further confirmed. Apart from the Yuzhou incident, Jia Amnesty can't find any other clues for the time being.So at present, he can only stick to the word "wait".I just hope that this liar is confident enough to dare to do a big job in the biggest rich and romantic place in the capital.
When Jia Amnesty was about to leave the neighboring house, it was getting late.After going downstairs, he turned his head to the backyard, when an arm suddenly stretched out, blocking his way.
Jia She raised his eyebrows and looked at the person who blocked him. He lowered his head at first, maybe he felt his gaze, and then slowly raised his head.
Jia Amnesty recognized it immediately, "Cao Lan?"
"Jia Enhou, you didn't expect me to come to you, did you?" Cao Lan looked tired, but her eyes stared at Jia Amnesty with great energy, wishing she could turn her gaze into a sharp sword and stab Jia She Amnesty's chest.
As soon as Zhu Mao and the others saw Cao Lan appearing, they immediately wanted to chase her away.
Cao Lan sneered, "Why, Mr. Jia is playing a big role. This neighbor's house doesn't allow me to enter, or is it because you are such a noble censor who forbids me to strike up a conversation?"
Jia Amnesty heard the irony in Cao Lan's words, and was not annoyed at all. Instead, he smiled happily, and frankly admitted that what Cao Lan said was true. "With your current status, you really don't deserve to talk to me. But fortunately, I'm a man of the world, so I can listen to you."
Cao Lan was stunned for a moment, then realized immediately, clenched her fists angrily and forbeared.
Jia Amnesty signaled to his subordinates with his eyes that someone would open the curtain.Jia Amnesty took the lead in striding towards the backyard, followed by Cao Lan.Jia Amnesty then sat down in the gazebo in the yard, and let Cao Lan speak as soon as he had something to say, and he listened attentively.
Jia Amnesty didn't let Cao Lan sit down, but Cao Lan walked to the seat opposite Jia Amnesty and sat down.Apparently he was used to being the Minister of the Household Department, and he forgot that as a commoner, he could not sit on an equal footing with Jia Amnesty.
Zhu Mao and others were not polite, and immediately scolded Cao Lan, reminding him of his identity.
Cao Lan was embarrassed, but her face was stiff and she didn't get up.
Jia She smiled lightly and said it was okay, and then asked Cao Lan why she was looking for her.
"Since I came to look for you today, I will not hide anything. I will tell you one thing and say another thing."
Jia Amnesty: "You have already said a nonsense."
"Is what happened that day in the Xiayang Tower a trick of yours?" Cao Lan continued, "Even if you don't admit it, I'll assume it was you."
Jia Amnesty raised the corner of his mouth, "Then what else can I say?"
Cao Lan sneered: "I admire you for having such a scheming heart. If you lose, you lose. There is nothing undeniable."
Jia She lowered his eyes, picked up the tea that the boy had just served, and blew on it.
Cao Lan also picked up the tea, uncovered the cover and smelled it, it turned out to be Chen Cha, and returned it to the table without saying a word, lamenting with a wry smile that she is really being bullied by a dog now.
Jia Amnesty put the teacup he just drank on the table without covering it.
Cao Lan glanced at Jia Amnesty's teacup, and her face immediately changed.After Cao Lan became a nobleman, she has studied tea tasting since she was a child.Now one only needs to look at the tea soup in Jia She's bowl to know that Jia She's tea is the same as his.Everyone just treats people equally, but it is because of this that I have a sour and ignorant ugly face.
Jia Amnesty: "What else do you have to say?"
Cao Lan was stunned, no longer trying to save face as before, she stared blankly at Jia She, opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"I'm very busy." Jia She said.
Cao Lan took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, she said to Jia Amnesty, "It's true that Zhen She and I were at fault for the Xiayang Tower incident, but our actions were not malicious. We just saw that you and Song Xi were constantly breaking up, and we didn't want to Seeing that you couldn't cut it clearly, you were used by Song Xi and hurt again. Because of this, the two of us wanted to help you once out of good intentions. I never thought that I did something wrong and was discovered by you stupidly. Both Zhen She and I deserve it. I came here today just to tell you, don’t misunderstand that it’s her who is the mastermind because of our calculations. In fact, it has nothing to do with her, it’s all on my own. .”
"Who?" Jia She asked.
Cao Lan slightly closed her mouth.
Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Jia Amnesty got up and left.
"I said," Cao Lan hurriedly said, "I will leave Beijing and return to my hometown in a few days. After I go, I am afraid that I will never go to Beijing again in this life. When people live to middle age, what is wealth and glory? I have experienced all the storms, and I have no other regrets. I am worried about her alone. After I leave, there will be no one in the capital who can help her. If Lord Jia is willing to help her regardless of the past, I am willing to do my best The family wealth is with you, and I kowtow three times to formally apologize to you."
"All the family wealth?" Jia She looked back at Cao Lan in surprise, "Lord Cao took the initiative to resign, which can be regarded as saving the last bit of dignity. The Cao family is a century-old noble family with a rich family background. You can still have face when you return to your hometown. .It is a good result to take good care of the elderly in the future, so why bother asking for trouble like this.”
Cao Lan kept her mouth shut for a while, and then said embarrassingly, "I told you, I can't let anyone go."
"If you can't let go of this person, then others are not human. Your wife and children are not human anymore? The family property is not yours alone, it is left to you by your ancestors and your descendants. Why should you squander it alone. Persuasion Hurry up and go back and forth, I don't want to see people with mental illness!" Jia Amnesty sent off.
Cao Lan was stunned, "Could it be that you know who I'm talking about?"
Jia She narrowed his eyes and stared at him.
Cao Lan suddenly shuddered, and turned around as if frightened, and then looked at Jia She with a horrified expression, "Could it be that you, you have never had a quarrel with Song Xi, Everything is just a show, just to plot against us?"
"I advise you not to worry about the affairs of the capital." Jia She said coldly, and after finishing speaking, he went away with his hands behind his back.
Cao Lan gave a crazy look, her eyes were about to pop out, and she kicked her legs and rushed towards Jia She's back.Zhu Mao, Gui San and others quickly stopped him.Cao Lan didn't care about these things, and yelled frantically for Jia Amnesty to stop, and he wanted to settle accounts with him.However, like a weak chicken, he was firmly controlled by ghosts and others, no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't take half a step.
Cao Lan got angry, so she cursed Jia She, and shouted even louder: "Do you think it's an honor for you to follow him? Let me tell you, anyone who has been with him will end up in a bad end! If you don't believe me, check it out." , all will die! You will only be worse! Hahahahaha..."
After that, Cao Lan's laughter stopped abruptly.Gui San and the others stuffed shoes into Cao Lan's mouth and blocked Cao Lan's mouth.
After Jia She entered the carriage and sat down, Zhu Mao came to ask Jia She how to deal with Cao Lan.
"As usual." Jia She said calmly.
Zhu Mao understood right away, and agreed bluntly, and ordered someone to press Cao Lan to go to Gyeonggi Prefecture, intending to sue him for offending and insulting the court officials.
Seeing this, Cao Lan was so anxious that she struggled to run away.How could Gui San and others give Zhu Mao a chance, so they sent him to the prison in Gyeonggi Province.Cao Lan was so anxious that she jumped on the spot and yelled for someone to let him go.He still had very important news that had not been passed to the palace, and he was very afraid that the person in the palace didn't know what kind of person Jia She was, and would mistrust him later.
Since the death of Wang Ziteng, the prisons in Gyeonggi Province have been checked many times and they are clean.The personnel employed in the prison are all sensible and know how to advance and retreat, and no one cares about Cao Lan at all.Even if he promised to spread the news to important people with tens of thousands of taels of silver, these jailers also knew the importance of saving their lives and would never dare to mess with them.
After Song Xi found out about Cao Lan, he immediately sent Hengshu to ask Jia Amnesty if there was anything he could help.Jia Amnesty refused.
Song Xi has not moved since then.
The next day, Jia Amnesty came to set up a province for Jia Mu.
Mother Jia looked at Jia Amnesty, and sighed vicissitudes of life. After receiving his gift, she didn't ask any more questions, and just sent him to go about her own business.
At this time, the mother-in-law came back and forth: "Cao's mother and son came outside the gate of the mansion. They didn't cry or make a fuss. They just knelt quietly on the street opposite the gate of Rongfu. It's early in the morning, that's all. Later At that time, there are many people on the street, I'm afraid there will be people watching to join in the fun."
Jia's mother glanced at Jia She, seeing that Jia She didn't mean to say much, she sent him to go to work, and just leave the matter to Feng girl.
Jia Amnesty nodded, and after thanking Mother Jia, he really left.
When Jia Amnesty's carriage drove out of Rongfu, the mother and son of the Cao family cried and kowtowed, begging Jia Amnesty to let Cao Lan go.However, the carriage was driving very fast, and disappeared in the streets of Ningrong Street in a flash.
Cao's mother and son stopped crying and continued to kneel quietly on the street without saying a word.
"Just tell people to leave quickly, just remember one thing, don't hurt people." Jia Mu said.
After Wang Xifeng listened carefully to the situation outside, she hurriedly stopped Jia's mother, "This Mrs. Cao's family is not easy to deal with. Her husband was imprisoned for offending our master. She has learned this lesson, and now she can Kneeling silently at the gate of our mansion on purpose, not to make trouble. If we really make a move, we will be caught by others, or let the old man provoke criticism for nothing, it is not worthwhile. The old man has just been implicated by Zhen She and those low-spirited people , I just escaped from the gossip, if someone says something at this time, it will really ruin the reputation of the Grand Master."
Mother Jia nodded, feeling that Wang Xifeng was more considerate, and asked her, "Then how should we deal with it?"
"Don't worry, old ancestor. Since you entrusted me with this matter, I will definitely handle it well. Just a little, I'm afraid I won't be able to play cards with old ancestor today." Wang Xifeng said with a smile.
"You girl, what time is it? It's fine if I don't play cards for the rest of my life, and go and deal with your father-in-law's affairs, I have a reward here." Jia Mu laughed and said.
Wang Xifeng saluted with a smile all over her face, then turned around and left.
In about an hour, thirty or forty lively people had already surrounded the gate of Rong Mansion.They inquired about good things, and heard from Mrs. Cao's family that her husband was sent to Gyeonggi Province because Jia Amnesty made things difficult for her.Everyone looked at the four children who were kneeling with Mrs. Cao's family, their faces were pale, and they were almost fainting. They were very distressed.
Then someone couldn't help sighing: "It's another big deception by being an official. It's not unusual to see similar things in our capital. It's just pity that these children also suffered. The youngest two are only three years old and five years old. Year-old."
"Then Cao Lan has voluntarily resigned and pleaded guilty for what he did before, but Mr. Jia still doesn't let it go. Could there be some conspiracy in it?"
"There's no need to guess? It must be that Jia She has a grudge against Cao Lan and is plotting against him on purpose." Someone whispered and guessed.
Not long after, the west corner gate of Rong Mansion opened, and the women and servants came out one after another, each carrying something in their hands.
Seeing this, the onlookers hurriedly dispersed.
The servants of Rongfu quickly set up a simple thatched shed by the roadside. In the shed, exquisite mahogany tables and stools were placed, and delicious snacks, melons and fruits were placed on the table, as well as a pot of herbal tea.
Mrs. Yin smiled and asked Cao's mother and son to rest in the shed, "Look at the rising sun, it's very easy to suffer from heat stroke in this summer. Our second grandma specifically said that you can bear this crime." , the four little ones around you can't bear it, no matter how wronged we adults are, we can't wrong the child. Tsk tsk, look at this poor child, his face is sweating so much, his lips are white, he shouldn't suffer this .”
Mrs. Yin squatted in front of the youngest child, wiped the sweat off her head with a handkerchief, then turned to ask Mrs. Cao's family: "I wonder if this servant can take my brother to the shed to have a rest and eat a piece of watermelon?"
Seeing this, the scattered people gathered again.Looking at the youngest of the four children, she really looked a little scary, so they all suggested to Mrs. Cao's family to agree.
The eldest wife of the Cao family didn't expect that the Rong Mansion would entertain her with such a thing. She pursed her lips and lowered her head, crying on her knees and begging Mrs. Yin to intercede for her to let Master Jia let his husband go.
Mrs. Yin: "The old slave is a vulgar and vulgar person. He doesn't know anything, but he also knows the principle of 'the state owns the state law, and the family has the family rules'. The thing that Mr. Cao offended our adults is that how many people in the neighbor's house People have seen it with their own eyes and heard it with their own ears, and they can’t fake it. Since Master Cao did something wrong, shouldn’t he be allowed to bear the consequences that he should bear? Fu Fa, isn’t it a mess.”
When the surrounding audience heard this, they felt that it was very reasonable, and nodded one after another.It is also said that Cao Lan's wife's move is a bit excessive. This is obviously to pretend to be pitiful, to gain sympathy, and to go beyond the law to take advantage of it without punishment.
"Why is this? Everyone is bound by the law. Why should your husband ask for sympathy when something happens?"
"That's right. I think the Rong Mansion is kind enough. They even prepared such good snacks and fruits to entertain you. It's really doing the utmost kindness to your mother and son."
"Hmph, I didn't expect that Cao Lan was not very good, and his wife was so shameless. It seems that it really is 'not a family, don't enter the family', so the family is not normal."
The eldest wife of the Cao family was so angry at what she said, she was too embarrassed to stay any longer, so she hurriedly picked up the youngest son, pulled the other two older ones, called the eldest son, and prepared to leave.
Mrs. Yin hurriedly called a carriage and asked their mother and son to get on the carriage.
Seeing this, everyone admired the Rong Mansion even more, but they couldn't help scoffing at the actions of Mrs. Cao's family.The tactic of deliberately pretending to be weak to attract sympathy is really insidious, and they were almost deceived.Naturally, everyone had no sympathy for Mrs. Cao's family, and they sighed and scolded for a while, so they should disperse.
Mrs. Yin specially prepared ice water in the car.
Mrs. Yin wet the face towel, wiped the children's faces to cool off the fever, and then persuaded the Cao family: "Let me say something that is not pleasant, the wife should dispose of the house happily, and take the children back to their hometown as soon as possible to resettle. "
"My husband hasn't returned yet, so how can I enjoy myself and live alone." The eldest wife of the Cao family said with red eyes and tears.
Mrs. Yin leaned close to Mrs. Cao's family and whispered something into her ear.
The face of the eldest wife of the Cao family changed drastically, and she rounded her already red eyes: "Is what you said true?"
"It's absolutely true. Master Cao said to our master himself yesterday that he is willing to spend all his wealth to let our master help the person in his heart." Mrs. Yin said this with a normal tone.
Cao Qingming, the uncle of the Cao family, is seventeen this year, and he is already sensible. Hearing Mrs. Yin's words, he can make a guess in his heart.
The eldest wife of the Cao family didn't say much because of the blow, she just covered her face with her handkerchief and cried.
Seeing her mother so sad, the uncle of the Cao family frowned even deeper.
After the carriage arrived at Cao's house, Mrs. Yin watched the five Cao family's mother and son enter the mansion, and then boarded the carriage and went back.
At dusk, when Jia She returned home, Mrs. Yin told Jia She what had happened.
Jia Amnesty couldn't help praising Wang Xifeng's response. Her actions not only reflected the benevolence and righteousness of the Rongfu, but also drove the Cao family's mother and son away quietly.Jia She ordered someone to pick out a pair of vases from the storeroom and send them to her. He knew that Wang Xifeng liked these rich and valuable things, and rewarding her was naturally to match what she liked.
Mrs. Yin said again: "Your maidservant has something to accuse. This maidservant told Mrs. Cao's family what Mr. Cao said about spending all his wealth, just to tell her to give up and leave Beijing as soon as possible."
"Did you tell me who that person is?" Jia Amnesty looked at Mrs. Yin.
Mrs. Yin hurriedly bowed and said: "I dare not, I just follow Master Cao's words. I think the eldest wife of the Cao family knows it well. When I mentioned that I am the one in Master Cao's heart, her face changed drastically. "
Jia She smiled, "You did a great job. Now that I have people like you who are useful, it saves me a lot of worry and I am very pleased." Jia She asked Mrs. Yin what reward she wanted, and Mrs. Yin hurriedly knelt down. She made an unfeeling request, and she really wanted her little grandson to be Baoyu's servant, so that she could have the opportunity to accompany Baoyu to study in Songshan.
"Even if you told me about this earlier, I would have responded. It is a good thing that more people in the mansion are studying. This is not a reward. You can think of another thing and tell me later." Jia She said, and sent someone Sending Wang Yongchun, the grandson of Mrs. Yin, to Songshan College.
Jia She then called Dongsun and asked her: "I told you about your work this morning, but it's done?"
Dong Sun smiled and agreed, Dang even went out, and came back after a while, with an extra food box in his hand.
The winter bamboo shoots brought four plates of dim sum from the food box. The plates were made of plain bamboo and wood in a rectangular shape. They were not too big or small. There were only two pieces of dim sum on each plate. Flowers in different styles on white.
Jia Amnesty chose the most beautiful one, then took out a red flower from another plate, put it on this plate, and made two flowers.
Jia Amnesty immediately asked Zhu Mao to send the plate of dim sum to the Song Mansion.
Song Xi had just had dinner, and the Rong Mansion always pays attention to food. In addition, Hengshu recently found that his master has a bad appetite, so he specially asked him to spend more time on the food tonight.Unexpectedly, their master only took two bites of a table of dishes prepared with such painstaking efforts, and then put down his chopsticks.
Heng Shu served tea, and then remained silent.
"Master, someone from the Rong Mansion is here."
Song Xi still looked at the memorial in his hand without making any statement.
Heng Shu glanced at Song Xi, then went out, saw Zhu Mao smiling and carrying a food box, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, "He's finally here."
While handing over the food box, Zhu Mao asked puzzledly, "Why, you knew I was coming?"
"I've been looking forward to it for a long time." Heng Shu looked at the pig's hair, and then said, "What's in it, our master can't eat well these days, and it has reduced a lot."
Zhu Mao pursed his mouth, "That may not be of much use. Our master didn't send much food, just a small plate of snacks. It probably won't make your adults fat."
"Snacks are very good, even a single hair is good." After Heng Shu said, he brushed off the pig hairs and waited a while, then he entered the house with a food box and told Song Xirong that the mansion had sent some snacks.
Song Xi was just dipping his pen in the ink, his eyes were lowered to write the memorial seriously, but he didn't say a word.
Heng Shu didn't dare to do anything wrong, he just took out the plate of dim sum from the food box, put it on the table, then quietly backed away, and returned the empty food box to Zhu Mao.
Zhu Mao smirked and asked: "How is it, have you eaten, master?"
"Not yet, the master is busy processing the memorial, you should go back first." Heng Shu said.
Zhu Mao responded in disappointment, stretched his neck and looked in the direction of the study, and said goodbye to Heng Shu.
After returning to Rong Mansion, Zhu Mao reciprocated Jia Amnesty and retired to rest.
After Jia She was busy with the matter at hand, he looked up at the vast night outside the window in a trance.After a long time, he took a shower and changed clothes, and rested on the couch.
After Dongsun extinguished the candles in the old man's room, he closed the door softly before returning to his room.
There was silence in Rongxi Hall.
Song Xi wrote until his eyes were tired, so he put down the pen, and while reading the content on the notebook, he reached out to pick up the teacup and drink tea.
After Song Xi finished his tea, when he saw that the ink was dry, he closed the booklet, got up and was about to leave the study.When he walked to the door, he glanced at the things on the table out of the corner of his eye, suddenly remembered, turned back and walked to the edge of the table.
I thought there were just two pieces of ordinary snacks on the plate, but after a closer look, I found something else.
A trace of astonishment flashed across Song Xi's originally indifferent face, and then it cleared up, with a helpless smile on the corner of his mouth, which was also mixed with a hint of joy and a bit of pampering.
There are two characters written on the two snacks, one is "heart" and the other is "magic".
Song Xi hooked the corners of his lips, first picked up the snack with "heart" written on it, stuffed it into his mouth, and then ate the "magic" heartily.Song Xi strode out immediately, asked Hengshu to prepare the car, and immediately went to Rongfu.
After arriving at Rong Mansion, Song Xi wanted to come back tomorrow when he learned that Jia Amnesty had rested.Seeing this, Yin Po hurriedly invited Song Xi to Rongxi Hall.
"Master has been looking out of the window before going to bed. I think he is waiting for your lord. If your lord leaves like this tonight, I'm afraid that when you get up early tomorrow, the master will regret that he went to bed early. You are here. Anyway, please come in and say hello." .” The Indian lady bowed.
Before he could finish speaking, Song Xi was already walking towards the door of Rongxi Hall.
When Jia She on the bed heard the sound, he immediately sat up and asked in the dark, "But he's here?"
After Jia She said that, he was about to bend down to the ground, but he bumped into his arms.Jia Amnesty was unsteady, and instinctively grabbed Song Xi's sleeve, smelling the familiar scent of plum blossoms, Jia Amnesty didn't need to identify who was coming.
Song Xi clasped Jia She's waist tightly with both hands, immediately put his lips on Jia She's mouth, and then violently pressed him on the couch, making a toss.He didn't give up until the hoarse voice of the panting person under him became smaller, he put his arms around Jia She, and kissed Jia She's lips again and again, full of lust.
"Satisfied." Before Song Xi could ask, Jia She took the initiative to answer first.
Song Xi smiled, "Then are you satisfied with the top or the bottom?"
Jia Amnesty stretched out his hand and immediately pinched Song Xi's lips, "This mouth is still not clean after eating my snacks."
"What I eat is the 'heart demon'. How can I be clean? Naturally, it will become more and more dirty." Song Xifu lay on Jia She's body, biting his lip, blowing the thin and hot breath against Jia She's ears, Gently told Jia Amnesty that he was going to be 'dirty' again.
Then it was another toss.
This kind of exercise is really a good way to hypnotize. After taking a bath, Jia She closed his eyes and fell asleep without thinking about anything.Song Xi was not greedy enough, facing a sleeping beauty who had just bathed, he endured several times before he continued to attack.
In the morning, Mother Jia sent a few boxes of exquisite breakfast.These things were originally prepared by the kitchen for Jiamu, because Jiamu was very happy when she heard that Song Xi stayed in Rongfu last night, she knew that Song Xi's food was exquisite.On the other hand, Jia Amnesty did not have high requirements for food, and was very casual, so that the meals made in Rongxitang's kitchen became rough.Mother Jia was worried that Song Xi would not be able to have a good breakfast, so she gave up all the delicious food from her side.Even if she eats later by herself, she is also willing.
After breakfast, Song Xi went to thank Jia's mother in person, and then asked Jia Amnesty if there was anything wrong today.
"There are some chores, but nothing major." Jia She said.
"Then let's have a good chat, what is your demon that I devoured?" Song Xi said.
Jia Amnesty glanced at Song Xi, "You really want to know?"
"I made a good guess." Song Xi approached Jia Amnesty solemnly, "You are really checking me out this time."
Not the tone of the question, but a very positive statement.
Jia She nodded frankly, "I wanted to mention it to you last time, but then it was hard to speak up when there were idlers. If you want to hear it today, then I will explain it clearly."
"Some things are meaningless if they are too clear." Song Xi chuckled, "I should ask someone to sew that mouth of King Huainan on."
"It seems that you already know." Jia Amnesty frowned, and the look on Song Xi's face didn't change much, and his heart became a little calmer. "I didn't mean to dig up your old stories, but..."
"Don't just stop, I know what your temperament is, it's for my own good that you don't dare to mention it. If you want to blame, you should blame those talkatives," Song Xi sneered, "I am a bit cold-tempered, but I am not as cold as the legend It’s like an exaggeration. I do hold grudges about what happened back then, but it’s not to the point of killing anyone I see. Otherwise, do you think that a fool like King Huainan would live well to this day?”
"If you say that, I should apologize to you." After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he was about to salute to Song Xi.
Song Xi hurriedly stopped him, "I said earlier that I don't care about apologizing, it's useless to pay with flesh! You have to take good care of me on the next rest day. The wild bath last time was very interesting. I want to come again." , I haven't done it in the woods yet, you can try it."
Jia She glared at him with a hot face.
Song Xi was very savvy, so he took it as Jia She's acquiescence, and turned to talk to him about the business, "I really don't know why those 32 court ladies committed suicide back then. As for Zhen She's death, there is nothing to mention. He deserved to die. The end of the person who provoked me should be like this. It's a pity that he caught the mouse and started teasing him. Before he had enough fun, he died first."
Jia Amnesty heard what Song Xi meant by saying that he hadn't done anything to Zhen Shezhen yet, so he asked him why he sent someone to find Zhen She.
"Let him betray Cao Lan." Song Xi said.
Jia Amnesty looked at Song Xi in puzzlement. Cao Lan has been forced to resign because of his style of work, and he was imprisoned yesterday. What else can he do with someone like him?
"It's just boring. I just want to watch them fight in the nest. It's not interesting. By the way. Have you decided what to write in this month's "Secrets of Neighbors"?"
Seeing that Song Xi suddenly changed the subject, Jia She knew that he must have something to say later, so he told Song Xi about the case of the son-in-law defrauding money, "But it will take some time to find out the truth. I can't catch up with this issue. I have been thinking about what new case to fill in these two days."
"I heard that Cao Lan's wife came to your house to make trouble, but you cleverly dismissed it?" Seeing Jia She nod, Song Xi continued, "A few days ago, I sent spies into Cao Lan's mansion to investigate. In addition to the number of ways Cao Lan contacted the concubine Xian in the Qing Dynasty, an unexpected incident was found. Cao Lan's eldest son, Cao Qingming, was not Cao Lan's biological son, and Cao Lan's wife, Shi Shi, was not the biological daughter of Shan Guogong. .”
"You speak too fast." Jia Amnesty immediately prepared a pen and paper, and asked for confirmation, "Then Cao Qingming is Shi's biological son?"
"No, Cao Qingming is a child brought back by the Shi family from outside." Song Xi continued, "The other three children of the Cao family are all concubines, but they are all fostered under Shi's name and taught as legitimate sons."
"That means the Shi family can't give birth? But she is Cao Lan's official wife, and there are bastards in the family who can be fostered under her name. As long as she doesn't die, her status will not be shaken. Why do you want to have a fake son?"
Song Xi: "I don't know, my people only know about this matter by listening to Mrs. Shi and the old woman beside me by chance. I guess the specific reason can only be found out with your ability."
"Lord Song is absurd, but disrespectful." Jia She said casually.
Song Xi stared at Jia She, fascinated by his semi-serious appearance.
Jia Amnesty was furiously stared at by Song Xi, and asked him what was wrong.
Song Xi: "Since you respectfully call me Master Song, you should behave like a subordinate and submit to my despotic power."
After Song Xi finished speaking, he reached into Jia Amnesty's collar and squeezed it lightly.
Jia Amnesty shuddered, and hurriedly pulled Song Xi's hand out, "It's in broad daylight, it's terrible!"
"I want someone, not life." Song Xi took the opportunity to kiss Jia She on the cheek, obviously feeling that Jia She's cheek was much hotter than usual, knowing that he had reacted, Song Xi rubbed his hand down.
"If you do this again, I'll call someone." Jia Amnesty immediately jumped up from his seat and confronted Song Xi defensively.
"Shout! It's another feeling to hear that someone is watching," Song Xi generously walked up to Jia Amnesty, and continued to use his hands to take advantage of him.
Jia Amnesty: "You are really shameless."
Song Xi: "What's the use of face, you are enough."
Jia Amnesty: "..."
What else can he say about him!
Jia She was groaned by Song Xi's confusion, turned his head, and went to the couch with Song Xi again, doing several different tricks and tossing around, and it took a long time before it was over.
The two dressed again.
Jia She then had the opportunity to ask Song Xi how he knew that the Shi family was not the biological daughter of Duke Shan.
"No, I still know. I also heard that Shi and others muttered about it. I'm also curious about the specific reason. When you find out, you should tell me as soon as possible." Song Xi laughed.
Jia Amnesty lay on the couch weakly, "Lazy, I don't want to move."
"Look at you, you are old, your physical strength is not good enough, and you still have the guts to say that you should move, but it really doesn't work." Song Xi smiled and patted Jia She on the back.
"What does it mean to be old?" Jia She glared at him, "You think I'm old?"
"It doesn't matter if you are old, no one will look at you, only I want you." Song Xi teased him with a tease.
Jia Amnesty: "It's not a thing."
"You are a thing." Song Xi replied with a smile immediately.
"Spit out the snacks I gave you. I think it's better for us to keep calm and not see each other." After Jia She said, he stretched out his hand to ask for it.
Song Xi squinted at Jia She: "I can't spit it out, or you can help me."
After Song Xi finished speaking, he brought his lips to Jia She's mouth, opened his mouth slightly, and let Jia She's tongue come in.
……
Three days later, the black pig cast a wide net, broke his leg, and finally seized the evidence that the housekeeper of Shan Guogong's mansion had stolen and sold the master's things. 's secret.
Black Pig: "Twenty or so years ago, Shan Guogong's family still lived in their hometown, Lingzhou, and had not moved to the capital. At that time, it was popular for the dignitaries in Lingzhou to raise small birds at home."
Jia Amnesty knew it was definitely not the literal meaning, so he asked, "Keeping little birds?"
"It's a young girl, or a younger Yangzhou skinny horse. She was brought back to the mansion to raise and play at the age of twelve or thirteen. When she was older, she would break the melon when she was sixteen or seventeen. Speaking of it, it is like Tongfang A maid is almost the same, but it is more fun to raise than a servant girl."
Song Xi then added: "I do know a little bit. These girls are usually raised in the master's study room and served in a special way. I met him once at the Wang's house in Dongping County. He must have raised four of them. 'Birds', regardless of the four seasons, they can only serve people in the study wearing a layer of thin white gauze, which is no different from being naked, and it is just a little more hazy beauty. This kind of fun is extremely boring!" Song Song Xi lightly laughed and mocked.
Jia Amnesty: "Hehe."
Black Pig: "Shi Shi is such a 'little bird'. He and the other three girls were raised in Shan Guogong's other garden, but not many people know about it. Among the four, only Shi Shi's The appearance of the facial features is almost similar to the youngest daughter of Duke Shan. Later, the youngest daughter of Duke Shan died suddenly. Duke Shan was involved in a case of favoritism and fraud. He was asking the Cao family to help solve the problem, fearing that his daughter was about to get married. But he couldn't marry into Cao's family, which made Cao's family feel frustrated and couldn't help him wholeheartedly, so they recognized Shi as their daughter and married her to the capital.
It was seven or eight years after this that Shan Guogong's family moved to the capital.Shi seldom went back to her mother's house after she got married, because people in the previous mansion felt that her appearance had changed, explaining that it was because she hadn't seen her for a long time, and in addition, there were Mrs. Shan and his wife who were helping to cover her up. His identity has not been exposed for ten years. "
After the black pig finished speaking, he continued: "By the way, I also found out that these 'little birds' in captivity have drank special medicine since they were young, so they can't have children."
