"Let the Zhen family move out, so we don't have to have anything to do with each other in the future." Mother Jia sat on the couch with a serious face, seeing Mrs. Wang's expression of disapproval, her eyes turned slightly cold, "You go, Bring the accounts from the public school, the notes that our family wrote to the Zhen family in the early years, now we can pay back the ones that can be paid first, and those who can't, we have to pay back the money first if we are seconded with the household department!"
Mrs. Wang wondered: "The old lady said this, where can I ask my daughter-in-law to get the money in a while. I think back then, the IOUs that the Duke of the country gave to the Zhen family were not tens of thousands of taels or tens of thousands of taels." , That's 200 million snowflake silver."
Jia Mu sneered: "Ignorant woman, stupid as a pig!"
Mrs. Wang was caught off guard by Jiamu's scolding all over her head. At this time, her face was flushed, and she wanted to argue, but she was clumsy and unable to speak, so she had to hang her head in silence.There was still an expressionless look on her face, which made Jia's mother feel depressed.
Mother Jia waved her hand and asked Wang Xifeng to come and sit beside her, pointing to Mrs. Wang, she said, "I also know that you are useless. If it weren't for Zhu'er's daughter-in-law's heavy body, I would never entrust the burden of housekeeping to you. You are in your hands. Now you are not worth the trouble, that’s all, Zhuer’s wife and I have to work harder, you just bring the account books, Zhuer’s wife and I will make a good plan, there is no need for you to scorpion scorpion here sting."
Wang Xifeng sits down cautiously while supporting her poopy belly. When she heard what Jiamu said, she wanted to get up and refuse, but her hand was held by Jiamu, and she couldn't get away at this moment.I had no choice but to speak softly: "The old lady is partial, I shouldn't refuse. It's just that I'm old and can't sit for a long time, I'm afraid I can't help the old lady."
Mrs. Wang was already covered in cold sweat when she heard that Mother Jia wanted to check the accounts.Then I thought about Jia Mu's age, as long as she did a good job in the account books, Jia Mu would not be aware of it for a while.What's more, Mother Jia hasn't been a housekeeper for many years. Last year, she showed the account book to Mother Jia. Mother Jia only read a few pages and then looked impatient. as usual.But now, since Mother Jia wanted her to bring the account books, she also asked Wang Xifeng to check the account books together, so she felt very hopeless.
As a girl from the Wang family, Wang Xifeng only knows how to do what she knows.
"That's right, old lady, Zhu'er daughter-in-law is about to give birth, if she is required to work too hard at this time, I'm afraid the fetus in her womb will not be good."
Mother Jia hesitated for a moment, and her eyes fell on Wang Xifeng's round belly, "If you really can't, it's just that I have to suffer more. It's just that I believe in you as a person, and I know that you are a good housekeeper. I specially invite you to come here to discuss it. It’s just that if you hurt your child because of this, it’s not right after all.”
Wang Xifeng responded with lowered eyes, and said softly: "Old lady, don't be so worried. The imperial doctor came to ask for Ping'an pulse, and they all said that this baby is very healthy."
Jia's mother sang "Amitabha", and finally showed her first smile of the night. She took Wang Xifeng's hand and said, "This is our family's blessing. Good boy, I'll give you a sigh of relief." Uncle Zhu gave birth to a son, so that you two can straighten your backs, no matter how bad those low-level things outside are, they won’t be able to get you out of your hands.”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang twitched the corners of her lips irresponsibly.Seeing that Mother Jia no longer mentioned the need to check the accounts, she smiled and said: "I didn't see the old lady eat anything during the banquet at night. I'm afraid I will be hungry in a while. As soon as I finished the banquet, I ordered the small kitchen to stew snow clam porridge." , wouldn't it be good for my son to tell them to take some out for the old lady?"
When Jia Mu heard the words, she also nodded slightly, and said: "Since that's the case, you two have been with me for so long. We girls should use some together."
Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng naturally agreed, and ordered Fei Cui and Glass to go down to pass on the message.Not long after, the two maidservants held the lacquer box and put it on the small table, three bowls of steaming snow clam porridge and several fresh green side dishes were all available.
During the banquet, Jia Mu was in a bad mood because of the affairs of the Zhen family, so she never moved her chopsticks.The old lady of the Zhen family also knew her well when she was young, how could she not know her thoughts.Unavoidably, there was some embarrassment on his face, he only took a few bites, and then he brought Grandma Zhen and Zhen Fei'er back to the yard under the pretext.The remaining few girls didn't have the mood to joke anymore, and they just broke up after saying a few words.
Seeing that Jia Mu's appetite for porridge is not bad, her son, Mrs. Wang, said with a smile: "The old lady has always been close to the old lady of the Zhen family, so why is she getting annoyed today? We are talking to each other about small things like fingernails. It’s born, won’t it make people laugh when you talk about it in the future?”
"Snapped--"
Mother Jia slapped the chopsticks in her hand, frowned and scolded: "Ignorant woman, what do you know!"
Mrs. Wang was sternly shouted at by her, and she dared not speak at the moment.Wang Xifeng was holding a small bowl to eat the porridge quietly, seeing Mrs. Wang's anxious face, she was very amused.Looking at Mrs. Wang like this, it seems that she doesn't know what the Zhen family has encountered today, what taboos the old lady has violated.It's true that An Sheng's life in the Gaomen mansion has been so long in the past few years, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddha has made her brain become dull!
Jia Mu sneered and said: "You are just a small matter that Qi Yatou scratched a piece of skin today, how do you know who took Qi Yatou away today!"
Mrs. Wang muttered: "Of course, it's Brother Hu and Brother Lian from Dafang..." At this point, Mrs. Wang seemed to have thought of something, her face turned white with fright, she opened her mouth in a daze, and looked Looking at Jia Mu, she said, "Return, and His Royal Highness..."
"Hmph, it's not too late for my son to think of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
After teasing Mrs. Wang calmly, Mother Jia sighed again in her heart. She didn't know why she had to take care of Wang's marriage for Jia Zhengxiang.He has no talent or virtue, but he is relying on the friendship between Jia and Wang's family for many years, thinking that although Jia Zheng will not be able to inherit the title and family business in the future, if he has his uncle and brother to help him, he may have a bright future in his official career.
If she had known that Wang Shi was so virtuous, she would not care about Wang Ziteng's ability!
"But what the old lady said, the fourth girl Zhen didn't say it too. It was just a child who was greedy for a while and didn't stand firm when he was drunk? Then, His Royal Highness, where, how can we blame us? ?”
Mother Jia gave her a cold look, she had no expectations for this daughter-in-law who couldn't figure out everything.Seeing her expectant look on her face, she said coldly: "She said so, and you believed it too? At that time, no one knew what happened, but Qi Yatou has always been well-behaved. When did she drink so much and get drunk so seriously?" What’s more, with His Highness the Crown Prince’s defensive nature, the Zhen family will be peeled off if they don’t die this time! We and the Zhen family are just some friendships when the old Duke was alive, and these years are just a little more than ordinary relatives Be diligent. It's just an IOU of 200 million taels of silver, so I'll pay it back after gritting my teeth, why bother to lose the heart of His Royal Highness for such a petty profit!"
Mother Jia couldn't have said this more bluntly.
Back then, the Jia family borrowed money from the Zhen family, and the Zhen family wanted to gain a firm foothold in the south of the Yangtze River with the aristocratic style of the Jia family's family, so they were naturally happy to donate generously.But in the final analysis, the Jia family didn't use the money for nothing and didn't pay it back. The IOU is now in the hands of the old lady of the Zhen family.The Jia family was short-handed and soft-spoken, so they had to agree to take care of Zhen Fei'er during her election in Beijing, and earn a good reputation for Zhen Fei'er with the Jia family's current decent.
Mother Jia looked coldly and it was clear that she had originally agreed to recognize Zhen Fei'er as her god-daughter and Madam Wang as her god-daughter. One reason was that the Zhen family almost covered the sky with one hand in the Jiangnan area, and the whole of Jiangnan was under the control of the Zhen family. under.She wanted to give a boost to Jia Zheng's career, and the Zhen family also hoped that Zhen Fei'er could have a comparable status and family background like other noble girls in the capital.To say a thousand words and ten thousand, this is nothing but an exchange of equal value, the product of each other's intentions.
It's a pity that Zhen Fei'er's temperament is too troublesome. Jia's mother thinks that she has seen many pampered and famous women over the years, but none of them are more incapable of judging the situation than Zhen Fei'er.Therefore, during this period of time, everyone in the Zhen family has long been alienated.If the old lady of the Zhen family hadn't entered Beijing at this time, and Mother Jia couldn't resist the handkerchief friendship between the two of them in the past, how could she be willing to gather the members of the Zhen family to live temporarily in Jia's mansion!
Thinking of this, Mother Jia glanced at Mrs. Wang, whose face was blue and white, wishing to poke her crutch on the forehead.She has been so obvious, but this daughter-in-law seems to be lame and blind. She doesn't care about everything, doesn't listen to everything, and blindly helps Zhen Fei'er as her own daughter.Even with Grandma Zhen San, they also had a heart-to-heart friendship, and the two of them went in and out together, so close.
"That being said..." Mrs. Wang held the handkerchief in her hand, and said hesitantly: "Although this is the case, it is a quarrel between children, so there is no need to offend the Zhen family. What's more, this year Our shop has a lot of losses, and how much money is posted in the shop. There is really not much money on the books. I understand what the old lady means, but she hastily asked me to take out so much money. come to me……"
Mrs. Wang is not really stupid, she is just pretending not to understand.
She had eaten enough of the sweetness of loan sharks in the past few months, and Grandma Zhen San insisted on urging her to take out all the money.Although she also asked Leng Zixing to use his antique shop to do such a business before, but after all, the shop is small and there are not many people she knows well, no more people than Grandma Zhen San, and she is capable.
She only took 200 taels of silver to Grandma Zhen San, and within a month, she got 20 taels of interest.How can such huge profits make people not be greedy? Naturally, she listened to what Grandma Zhen said, and slowly emptied all the money in the entire Jia family's family, and gave it to Grandma Zhen to sell loan sharks.
At this moment, her son, Mother Jia, opened her mouth to take out the money from the public house and return it to the Zhen family. On the one hand, Mrs. Wang was reluctant, and on the other hand, there was actually no money in the public house, leaving only an empty account book.Now her son asked her to urge her for money with Third Grandma Zhen, how could she open her mouth!
But Mother Jia didn't know about her quarrels, she only said that her mind was no bigger than a pinhole, and said impatiently: "Whether you are in a hurry, left and right are also what you should do as a mistress. I will give you three days." , Three days later, you will ask someone to count the money yourself, and you and I will go to Zhen's house and settle all the money to them! If it is not enough, I will figure out a way. You should take a clear account of the accounts of the public school, and you don't need to worry about the rest .”
Mrs. Wang moved her lips anxiously, seeing that Mother Jia had closed her eyes, knowing that this matter could not be reversed, she had to salute in a hurry, turned around and left.No, she will go to Grandma Zhen San tomorrow to get back all the loan sharks released.It doesn't matter if there is no interest, at least let's pass the current hurdle first!
Wang Xifeng put down the porridge bowl, raised her phoenix eyes slightly, stared at Mrs. Wang's leaving back and smiled slightly.Good aunt, you have to spend the money that fell into the frying pan. If you don’t scald your skin this time, I’m afraid you won’t be able to.
Mrs. Wang wondered: "The old lady said this, where can I ask my daughter-in-law to get the money in a while. I think back then, the IOUs that the Duke of the country gave to the Zhen family were not tens of thousands of taels or tens of thousands of taels." , That's 200 million snowflake silver."
