Compared with her own coolness, Jia Zhen just doesn't get along with women other than You Shi, Madam Dou thinks she is still very kind.In response to Jia Zhen's almost coquettish cry, Madam Dou stroked the goosebumps on her arm and returned another smile: "Your daughter-in-law has nothing wrong with her except that her natal family is too weak. You are so lucky to get along with her. Giving birth to a boy and a half girl will also be Ronger's help in the future."

It's Rong'er again.Jia Zhen really wanted to ask Mrs. Dou, where did Rong'er come from without her own son.I also want to tell Mrs. Dou that Youshi has been married for five or six years, and I'm afraid she won't be able to have children.

There was a mother who just had a younger sister in front of her, so Jia Zhen had no choice but to keep silent.Jia Jing's idea of ​​solving the problem from the source is the same as Mrs. Dou's, but the method of finding the source is very ingenious: "Who is that woman?"

Mrs. Dou knew that what Jia Jing asked was who was the woman who made his son die on her belly. Since Jia Zhen dared to do it in the original book, there was nothing wrong with her saying it. : "Qin Keqing."

No need to think about the consequences of Jia Jing hearing those three words.Who is Qin Keqing, even if she is the illegitimate daughter of Prince Yizhong, she is also engaged to Jia Rong and will be Jia Zhen's daughter-in-law!

Mrs. Dou said that Jia Zhen died on Qin Keqing's belly in the end, that's a mess//lun!Based on this alone, how could Jia Jing, who was a scholar first and then a Taoist priest, endure it?Immediately there were hog-killing cries in Ning Xuan Hall.

When You Shi was called, there was nothing good about Jia Zhen's body, her face was completely swollen like a pig's head, even if Mrs. Dou had witnessed Jia Jing's power all the time, she would still say that she really didn't know her own mother. Jia Zhen now.

"Take him back so he can be raised." Mrs. Dou said calmly, as if she hadn't seen You Shi's instant tears.

You Shi glanced at her mother-in-law in disbelief, and her mind was surprisingly consistent with Jia Zhen's thoughts: Is this still the uncle's biological mother?Thinking about Jia Zhen's injury was caused by Jia Jing, the mother-in-law chose her husband between her husband and her son, and Youshi became calmer, crying and calling for someone to carry the spring stool, and wanted to carry Jia Zhen to Ningxia. Lu Tang.

Mrs. Dou had to confess: "When he is recuperating, you will serve him personally, and don't let those goblins get close to him, or else," she glanced at Jia Zhen lightly at this point: "His beating is in vain." suffered."

Youshi thought he knew the truth about Jia Zhen's beating, and suddenly he felt less anxious and sad: "Yes, I will listen to my wife."

"You didn't listen to me." Mrs. Dou corrected You Shi: "He is your husband-in-law, and there is nothing wrong with you marrying as a husband. But you are his regular wife, and he has done things that he shouldn't do. You have to persuade him. Even if If you can't persuade me, you have to go back and forth with me and the master."

This is tantamount to giving You Shi a reassurance. If Jia Zhen has any troubles with other women, You Shi can come to Ningxuan Hall to file a complaint.Tears finally fell from Jia Zhen's eyes, now he has no ambitions, he just begs these two women to stop chatting, and quickly ask an imperial doctor to heal his injuries.

The imperial physician still needs to be invited.It’s just that Jia Zhen is almost 30 years old, and she was beaten so hard by her own father that she couldn’t get out of bed. It’s really not a glorious thing, and it also let countless people in the capital know that Jia Jing no longer practiced Taoism and returned to Ningguo Mansion.

Did the emperor get the news, what was the reaction to the news, Mrs. Dou didn't know, all the four princes and eight princes sent people, and other honorable families who could be related also came to visit Jia Zhen's illness, and by the way She still knows about Jia Jing.

The constant grand occasion of visiting patients lasted until Mrs. Dou was out of confinement, and it was connected with the full moon banquet of Jia Yuan's children.Mrs. Dou also had to attend this day, and found that although Youshi was busier than when she just returned home, her complexion was like a spring breeze, and she just smiled, still talking with other wives.

Those wives were not easy to get along with. While praising Mrs. Dou for being blessed and able to give birth safely at this age, they asked Jia Jing why he suddenly stopped practicing Taoism and whether he would practice Taoism again in the future. .

Mrs. Dou had already prepared for this question. She sighed first, and then her eyes were red: "The master is only thinking about Qingxiu, but Jia Zhen..." Then she shook her head in admiration, sighing. what is not said.

The wives and wives scratched their heads when they heard this, and Mother Jia spoke first, relying on her identity: "Jen'er has always been quite quiet, I haven't heard of any troubles he caused, why Jing'er is so indifferent."

In the entire capital city, the one who didn't want Jia Jing to stop cultivating the Tao was Jia Mu. Mrs. Dou answered with great care: "What kind of temperament is Jia Zhen? The old lady doesn't know? Our master regrets it very much and taught him a lesson." Afterwards, I was determined to find out the person who instigated him to be bad, and I wanted to file a court case with him."

Don't use your seniority to overwhelm others, respect your son, Jia Jing is ten years older than Jia Amnesty, and Jia's mother is not too silly to call her that.I really want to be an elder for others, and I can act like an elder. What kind of thing is it to teach someone's child badly while their father is not at home?

What Mrs. Dou didn't say, Jia's mother understood and became angry.This Dou family has been dissatisfied with herself since she gave birth to that little girl, if she is allowed to be like this again, the situation that Ningrong and Rongfu are as close as one family will sooner or later break up with her.

This Dou family really can't stay.Zuo Zuo is also a shameless person. Even if she looks pretty good to give birth to a girl at such an age, she may be at a disadvantage. If she is bedridden or dies of illness, it will not arouse suspicion.

Thinking of this, Jia's mother fell silent, but she didn't know that her retreat at the first blow was completely inconsistent with Mrs. Dou's impression of her, so she took precautions against Jia's mother in her heart.The other wives felt that what Madam Dou said was very reasonable, and they all talked about the bad atmosphere among the children in Beijing, which only emerged in the past six or seven years. Counting the time, it turned out that it was Prince Yizhong who happened when something bad happened. up.

Mrs. Dou's heart was moved when she heard this, and she wrote down the two wives who talked the most. One was Mrs. Niu from the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, and the other was Mrs. Liu from the Duke of Liguo's mansion.The situation of these two mansions is very different from that of Ningguo Mansion. Both Niu Jiye and Liu Fang who are in charge can be regarded as promising figures in the noble family.

When others talk about their own children being led badly, they talk about their promising children and grandchildren. Isn't this kind of operation afraid of talking to death?What's more, after so many lives, who are these two families standing behind, can Mrs. Dou not know?She would not take such a small challenge to heart.

Thinking that she is also the host after all, Mrs. Dou decided to take advantage of the gap between the two wives' conversations, and set up another leader: "I don't know if you have any good doctors to recommend. .Besides, Jia Zhen was beaten up by our master this time, so it’s not good to have a diagnosis and treatment, I’m afraid there will be hidden diseases.”

When it comes to childbirth, all the wives and wives here have a lot to say, and the topic is naturally distorted.Only Mother Jia's eyes flickered, and she also told Mrs. Dou about the doctor Wang who had been treating everyone in the Rongguo Mansion.

However, it was really not the doctor Wang who treated Jia Zhen—Ningguo Mansion and Rongguo Mansion never invited the same doctor.Mrs. Dou had reason to believe that the imperial physician who had been walking around the Ningguo Mansion might also be the emperor's eyes and ears, but she didn't intend to expose him.

The eyes and ears who know are better than those who don't know.

After a full moon banquet, Mrs. Dou began to invite doctors to her home with great fanfare. Sometimes several doctors consulted Jia Zhen together and discussed how to treat her and how to treat the root cause. The scene should not look too harmonious.

You Shi didn't know why Mrs. Dou suddenly paid attention to Jia Zhen again, and she was very grateful that Mrs. Dou also asked someone to take care of her body by the way.She is very concerned about taking medicine, hoping that she can also conceive a boy and a half girl with the help of her wife.

The wound will heal one day. With so many doctor's prescriptions, Jia Zhen can walk around after lying on the bed for only two months.Because he was severely detained in the mansion, as soon as he was able to go to the ground, he thought about going out to meet those cronies.

Madam Dou didn't stop him, she just reminded him not to control his sweat towel, and let him out.When Jia Zhen thought she was a fish in the sea and could surf freely, she was caught by Jia Jing's servant and had to obediently follow her back home.

Jia Jing was almost driven mad by this son, and felt that he really shouldn't have returned home with Mrs. Dou.But Mrs. Dou can send out the servant from him, how can she let him shrink back?The matter of disciplining Jia Zhen was pushed to Jia Jing again.

"He still has business to do, the master should be more lenient, so that he can meet the third prince soon." Madam Dou reminded Jia Jing without any sincerity, which made Jia Jing who was about to start trembling with excitement for a moment.

Can't stop shivering.For the past two months, Jia Zhen had been hiding on the bed and lying dead, but Jia Jing was sent out by Mrs. Dou every day, asking him to find a way to connect with the third prince.Jia Jing's arrogance is not small in his bones, and he feels that it is not very honorable to become a monk and practice Taoism, and he does not want to go out.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Dou urged him several times but there was no movement from him, so she stopped urging him. When Jia Jing felt that he had escaped, the futon he used for meditation at night was silently reduced to ashes before his eyes.

Turned into ashes—Jia Jing had no doubt at all that if he was sitting on the futon, he would also be wiped out with ashes.

It's not that he didn't ask Mrs. Dou the next day, is she still his original wife, and what kind of magic method did he use to set the things he used on fire.What did Madam Dou say?

He didn't seem to say anything, just asked Jia Jing, since he felt that he was not the original Mrs. Dou but a monster, should he find someone to set a fire and burn himself to death?Or he felt that what he did was not good for the Ningguo Mansion, should he give up or reconcile?

Jia Jing didn't have the guts to make any choice, so Mrs. Dou told him in a nice voice that she learned the skill of setting fire on the Wangxiang Terrace. It can only scare people, but can't cause substantial harm , so Jia Jing need not be afraid.

Don't be afraid of a ghost.Jia Jing went out early the next day, even if he was soaking in the teahouse and listening to stories, he refused to return home before the sun went down.He came and went again and again, and some people heard that he was out, and he could meet a few of them intentionally or unintentionally.

Jia Jing is not a person who is willing to socialize with others, otherwise he would not have directly thought of practicing Taoism and avoiding the world.Now that Jia Zhen has fallen into his hands, it is possible to take over his task and go out to find a way to connect with the third prince. Jia Jing couldn't help but be excited.

So this time he acted very gently, and just rewarded Jia Zhen with ten boards by himself, and he recovered within five days after lying down.The injury on her body healed, but Jia Zhen left a shadow in her heart. She no longer dared to report that Mrs. Dou was lucky that she didn't go out and didn't know what he was doing outside, and honestly followed Jia Jing to go out every day.

Mrs. Dou has nothing to do here, so she just calls Jia Rong to Ningxuan Hall every day, saying that she loves her grandson, but in fact she wants to teach Jia Rong herself——Mrs. But the next Patriarch of the Ningguo Mansion, if he wants to be happy in his old age in this life, he still has to start from a baby.

With the foundation of Jia Zhu in her previous life, it is still very easy for Mrs. Dou to correct Jia Rong.Within a few days, the little guy changed from being reluctant at the beginning to now refusing to leave. Mrs. Dou had to ask someone to clean up her west wing, and let Jia Rong live in it for a few days from time to time.

Seeing this, You Shi was not uneasy, but it is very common for grandmothers to raise grandchildren in this era, not only You Shi could not object, but he did not dare to show any unhappy expression.

But Mrs. Dou discovered that she had become closer to the people in Rongguo Mansion.Then, Mrs. Dou found out that she had been poisoned.Don't ask Madam Dou how she found out, how can a body that has taken the repairing liquid show the postpartum weakness of ordinary women?

Now she is becoming more impatient with fatigue day by day, sometimes she will fall asleep unconsciously while reading to Jia Rong or teasing Xichun.

Let Mrs. Dou say that those people are still not brave enough to poison themselves to death directly.This person is weak, and there are always times when he is sober. Didn't he drink the repair fluid again as soon as he found out that something was wrong?

But the news that the body is fine, there is no need to let others know.On weekdays, she still looked inexplicably weak, and the doctors even came to Ningguo Mansion for the first time, but no one could diagnose Madam Dou's illness.

that's enough.

Mrs. Dou quickly locked her eyes on Lai Sheng and his wife—the two were too gracious to Youshi.Mrs. You, the Ningguo Mansion's embarrassing existence, did not catch the eyes of the housekeeper couple recommended by Mrs. Jia, but now she puts on the posture that she only obeys Mrs. You's orders. It is difficult for Mrs. Dou to doubt it.

Before that, we need to see what role You Shi played, whether she simply wanted to be a grandma who has the right to speak, or she wanted to conspire with others to be the unique hostess of Ningguo Mansion.

With the power of the soul, it is easy to find out: Lai Sheng and his wife, who seem to be attentive to Youshi on the surface, do not act as if they are listening to Youshi's orders, but rather like to monitor Youshi from time to time.

Mrs. Dou ordered people to call You Shi to Ningxuan Hall twice, but she didn't say anything else, she just asked You Shi about Jia Zhen's situation, and allowed time for You Shi to say anything with confidence. .

Youshi often just talked about the housekeeper or the trivial matters of human relations, and didn't mention anything else.Madam Dou didn't take the initiative to ask her. For a shameless person, letting go is an insult to herself.

Every time Youshi was discharged from the hospital, he would run into Lai Sheng's family, and he would follow Youshi all the way back to Ninglutang, caring very much about what Youshi and Mrs. Dou had talked about.After finding out what Mrs. Dou said from Youshi, Lai Sheng's family will go back to the house they bought and tell Nanny Lai exactly what she said. After that, Nanny Lai will go to Rongguo Mansion to accompany her. Follow Jia Mu to "speak".

The whole line was connected, and it was time for Jia Jing and Jia Zhen to be invited to Ning Xuan Hall again.During this time, Mrs. Dou wanted to pretend to be weak, and didn't pay much attention to these two guys. It seemed that they had a good life, and even when they saw Mrs. Dou, they couldn't hide their complacency.

"The master has been out of the mansion these few times, what kind of drums did you listen to?" Mrs. Dou is a virtuous person, and she should first care about Jia Jing, the husband.Unexpectedly, Jia Jing was so unapproachable, when he heard that his wife was concerned, his face was like dead dust, as if someone had caught him, Madam Dou snorted coldly at him twice, expressing her contempt.

It's easier for Jia Zhen to handle things here. Mrs. Dou just asked if she was connected with the third prince, and he just knelt down.Jia Jing felt that Jia Zhen could use Jia Zhen to divert his mistakes, and directly taught Jia Zhen with his feet that he should listen to his wife's arrangement and finish the things that his wife told him as soon as possible.

After Jia Zhen got kicked twice, Mrs. Dou felt sorry for her son and stopped: "I called you here today because I have something to tell you. Master will teach Jia Zhen after he leaves me."

Jia Jing withdrew his foot regretfully, and heard Mrs. Dou say, "I've been poisoned. The poison was put into the daily tonic that Lai Sheng and his wife listened to the old lady of Xifu's stew for me."

Jia Zhenteng stood up from the ground at once: "Her hand is too long, she dared to attack the wife."

Jia Jing's face was not very good-looking: "When she recommended Lai Sheng to be the housekeeper, I felt uneasy."

Who wouldn't be an afterthought?Mrs. Dou asked angrily: "Then why didn't you refuse?"

Jia Jing was speechless again—it wasn't that Yuanshen didn't want to use his confidant to accompany the housekeeper that day, but Jia Jing felt that Jia's mother was an elder, and it was not easy to refute her face, so he bit the bullet and responded. down.

In the past few years, Lai Sheng and his wife seem to be quite obedient, but they are too obedient: no matter what absurd things Jia Zhen does, Lai Sheng, who is the chief housekeeper, has never advised Jia Zhen.Even if Jia Zhen was tired and wanted to spend two days at home quietly, Lai Sheng would whisper in his ear twice that there was a new girl in the garden, and where he could find a lover.With such a caring butler, and with the guidance of those cronies outside, it's hard for Jia Zhen not to be sensual.

If there is an elder in the mansion who can hold Jia Zhen down, pay attention to him every day, and if he finds that he is crooked, he will lead him to the right path, Jia Zhen might not be like this.But Jia Jing had already left the city to live in a Taoist temple, and because Jia Jing practiced Taoism, he felt that he was almost a widow and could follow his son, and he didn't care about Jia Zhen's affairs, so Jia Zhen went further and further.

The root cause is that Jia Jing left all his family behind to cultivate the Tao, so why would he have the nerve to talk?

But in front of the wife, it is impossible not to show your intentions. Jia Jing said with a dark face: "Zhen'er, you will bring someone to arrest Lai Sheng and his wife now. With their confession, I am not afraid that the old woman in Xifu will deny it. account."

Jia Zhen raised her foot to leave, but Mrs. Dou stopped him.Are you kidding me, Lai Da's family can covet the things of Rongguo Mansion, Lai Sheng and his wife can let Ningguo Mansion go?So people are to be arrested, and this family is also to be copied.We can't just beat Lai Sheng and his wife to death, what they greedy is cheaper than Lai Da's family.

The things Mrs. Dou cared about were naturally sent to Ning Xuantang, she didn't even take a look at them, and let those things scattered in the yard like a sea of ​​mountains.It was at this time that Youshi was dragged in by Jia Zhen.

Mrs. Dou didn't think there was anything wrong with meeting You Shi in this way, she asked softly: "Am I a wicked mother-in-law? Have I ever made things difficult for you? I told Jia Zhen to leave you for a few years after you married into Jia's family." Did you ignore your words and let Jia Zhen neglect you?"

You Shi could only shake his head, which made Mrs. Dou sigh: "Then why do you hang out with people from the West Mansion?"

It's not a question. What questions are there now?Don't look at Lai Sheng's family as if they have been monitoring You Shi, but when they arrived at Ningxuan Hall, Lai Sheng's family members were not allowed to enter the inner room, and You Shi had plenty of time to reveal that he was being coerced.

She never said it.

Inaction sometimes does more harm to people.So Mrs. Dou didn't want to let You Shi go, even if she knocked her head off.Just as Prince Yizhong is about to die, let Jia Rong be as filial as Qin Keqing, will the future Yizhong County King feel that Ningguo Mansion is more sincere?

That was just a side effect, and now the funeral in Ningguo Mansion has to be done.Without the ostentation of Qin Keqing's funeral in the original book, there are still many etiquettes that should be there.Funeral, mourning, mourning...

Even if the You family is just Jia Zhen's house, with the name of the Ningguo Mansion there, many members of the Jia family came, and even the noble families sent people to sacrifice.It's not that Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang are ignorant of the strangeness of You's going, and they brought all the people from Rongguo Mansion with them.

"What a lovely child, why did he suffer from such a disease at such a young age?" Mother Jia wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes, and opened her mouth to challenge Mrs. Dou.

"That's right, she went to pay her respects to the old lady that day, and she was fine, talking about how to do the banquet on August [-]th. I don't think it's only half a month, so I just went." Madam Wang had tears in the corners of her eyes, Dou Madam thinks her acting skills are better than Jiamu's.

When it comes to acting skills, Madam Dou does not feel that she is inferior to others. She also has a ginger veil that she has prepared a long time ago. When she gently put it on the corner of her eye, tears kept rolling down: "I also think she is very sick. Strange, didn't you come back from Rongguo Mansion that day and complained that you were not feeling well? Many imperial physicians checked and checked, only saying that they were poisoned, but they couldn't find out where or what kind of poison they got."

Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang lost their faces. Not only were they from the Rongguo Mansion in the main hall, but also several old ladies and wives from other Jia clans were present.Mrs. Dou said so clearly, will anyone dare to go to the gate of Rongguo Mansion in the future?

"Mr. Dou, I know you feel sorry for Zhen'er's family, but you can't talk nonsense." Jia Mu's face was very ferocious.

Mrs. Dou was not afraid: "Am I talking nonsense? Lai Sheng's family will make it clear in Shuntian Mansion." It's really gone, this IQ really makes people worry for her.

Madam Dou forgot, since that day when Lai Sheng's house was raided, the servants of Ningguo Mansion asked her to clean it up, let alone those who were related to Lai Sheng's family, even those who were lazy and sharp on weekdays, let her directly send them to Zhuangzi was closed, and the corner gate between the two mansions was directly sealed.Mother Jia wanted someone to inquire about the affairs of the Ningguo Mansion, but she had to be able to find someone.

Mother Jia was so angry that she couldn't stand still. The two wives, Mrs. Xing and Wang, and the other juniors in the Rongguo Mansion were afraid that she would get angry, so they persuaded and helped them back to the Rongguo Mansion.The relationship between the two governments suddenly dropped below freezing point.

At this time, the necessity for Jia Jing to stay in the mansion became apparent. Rongguo Mansion not only had the family members of Jia's mother, but also Jia She and Jia Zheng, both of whom were older than Jia Zhen. I heard that My old lady got mad by Madam Dou, so she wanted to discuss it with Ningguo Mansion.

If Jia Zhen was the only one present, he would be a generation later than those two, and Madam Dou is a female family member, so it is not good for her to confront Jia She and the two in person.It's different when Jia Jing is still there, he is older than Jia She, not to mention that he has achieved success in studying before practicing Taoism, and his title is also equal to Jia She, those two people can't take advantage of Jia Jing.

The most important thing is that Youshi is really dead. The so-called death is the most important thing. Before Youshi's death, Ningguo Mansion kept the pulse records of seeking medical treatment and medicine. It is indeed a prescription for detoxification.The imperial physicians who treated Youshi were also there, and there was no possibility of fraud in Ningguo Mansion.

The mother of Jia in Rongguo Mansion was in a mess all of a sudden, even if the Shuntian Mansion still couldn't find out the news, just hearing that the illness diagnosed by the imperial physicians for Mrs. You was the medicine she asked Lai Sheng's family to use for Mrs. Dou. reaction.

The one who died was Youshi, Youshi who had a close relationship with the Rongguo Mansion.What this means, Mother Jia understands very well.After sending out the servants, Mother Jia opened her dowry box by herself, and she took out the bottom drawer and put it aside.Pulled the bottom plate out again.

I reached in and touched it, and small porcelain bottles were taken out one by one.One, two, three, four... Mother Jia felt inside again, and the color of her face changed—there should be five porcelain vases, but now there are only four left.

This porcelain vase is one of the most important dowries given by historians to married women. There are life-saving things in it, but also harmful things.The missing bottle contained the medicine that made Mrs. Dou weak.

The medicine has no smell, and if it is quietly put into tea or food, it can make people weak for no apparent reason.At that time, in order not to be discovered by others, Jia's mother specifically told Lai Sheng's family that the dose should not be too large, so as not to be found out.Youshi's onset was so fast, it was obvious that the dosage was not small.

Youshi is dead, and it's useless to worry about how much medicine she took.What Mother Jia is afraid of now is how did Mrs. Yao Dou get the medicine, and is there any left?If there are any left, who will she use them on.Also, is there only one bottle of medicine that Mrs. Dou took from Rongguo Mansion?

No one knew how Mother Jia came here in those few days, only that the old lady of Rongguo Mansion also started to ask doctors for medicine.This time, none of the masters of the Ningguo Mansion came to visit him, not even a woman.This made people who had been observing Ningrong Street have different thoughts in their hearts, and there were a few more people worshiping You Shi's coffin.

"Ma'am," Jia Zhen always looks cautious when she comes to Ningxuan Hall, and she is afraid of scaring anyone when she says: "Gu Shilang from the Ministry of Rites, Director Li from the Ministry of Households, and Shi Lang from the Ministry of Works, sent someone to attend the meeting today. sacrificed."

Madam Dou knew these people, and the third prince had already gathered them. Jia Zhen had told Jia Zhen that if these people came to offer sacrifices to Youshi, she would tell herself.Mrs. Dou responded and told Jia Zhen not to rush to post it, but she couldn't neglect others, so she asked him to send Jia Rong over when he arrived at the mourning hall.

No need to ask, Jia Zhen knew that Mrs. Dou felt that Jia Rong had been kneeling for a long time, and she found a reason to let him relax.Jia Zhen dare not even complain about her treatment being inferior to Jia Rong's.

What are you complaining about, saying that Jia Rong should be filial to You Shi and keep the spirit?Not to mention that Jia Rong is the first wife's son, Youshi is just a house filler, if he hadn't died before Jia Zhen, he would not even have the chance to be buried with Jia Zhen.Just saying that Youshi died because he failed Mrs. Dou, Jia Zhen dare not complain.

What's more, he doesn't have any feelings for Youshi.

Mrs. Dou asked someone to prepare Peiyuan soup, and when Jia Rong came, she made him drink a bowl, and then asked him about what he had seen in the mourning hall.After a few months of teaching, Jia Rong is enough to understand what Mrs. Dou wants to ask, and what she should focus on answering. Speaking clearly:

"A few days ago, the people who came here were all honorable families. Since the day before yesterday, there have been people from the same family of the master. The few families who came today are neither the master's same class nor the honorable family. Usually, three festivals and two longevity There is no communication, but people can’t understand.”

A young lady with red lips and white teeth spoke seriously as an adult, and frowned seriously, no matter how you look at it, people can't help but want to pinch his face.Mrs. Dou thought so and did the same thing. Jia Rong didn't find it abrupt, but he had become a habit of enduring these movements.

"Then Rong'er thinks that people who have never had any contact with our family come to sacrifice now, why?" Mrs. Dou did not forget the business just because she was so seductive.

Jia Rong thought for a while, and asked with some uncertainty: "Did these people suddenly discover that there is something worthy of making friends in our house?"

"It's been a few months since the master returned to the mansion. Your father's temper hasn't changed much. How come there is someone worth making friends with now?"

This question made Mrs. Xiao Zheng's brows almost knotted, but Mrs. Dou stopped talking.In the past few days, Jia Rong has been observing the demeanor of the people offering sacrifices every day. He can tell who is contemptuous and who is flattering. The new ones probably have demeanor The above has nothing to do with the first two.

"Our mansion and Rongguo mansion are going to be separated." Mrs. Dou has been annoyed by the division for several lifetimes, and now she has to do it again.

Jia Rong felt puzzled: "Ningrong and Rongfu have always been one body, one prospers and the other loses. The uncle has no real job, and he is separated from the Rongguo Mansion. Isn't it to let people bully us?"

This point of view should have been deliberately whispered in Jia Rong's ear on weekdays. Madam Dou told him in detail about the fact that the Ningrong and Rongfu's official positions had long been suppressed by the side: "In the world, In my eyes, the Ningguo Mansion is always the direct line of the Jia family, and they always have more in their hands than the Rongguo Mansion."

In previous lives, others always plotted against Jia Amnesty, didn't they just think that he had some connections in the military?When the Ningguo Mansion was founded, it was also the Duke of the country. Can others not worry about it?So he didn't calculate or less calculated Jia Zhen, but it was because he followed the Rongguo Mansion too closely in those lifetimes, making those people think that as long as they took down the Rongguo Mansion, they would hold Jia Zhen in their hands.

Now that the two governments are going to divide each other, don't people who are interested in it post it?When the news of the separation of the two prefectures spread, it was time for the Ningguo Mansion to choose people instead of being elected.As for who to choose and not to choose, it makes no difference to Mrs. Dou in this life.

In fact, if it weren't for the scruples about not being able to do anything to the royal family, it would be the most trouble-free for Jia Zhen to continue to stand in the team of Yizhong County King.Now I have to choose a new one, always listen to the opinions of Jia Jing and Jia Zhen, it is not something that can be settled after discussing with Jia Rong.

Jia Jing and Jia Zhen were taken aback by Mrs. Dou's suggestion of choosing a team. The two father and son had the same idea: a few days ago, Mrs. Dou asked them to go out of the house to contact with the third prince and the team. Already optimistic about the third prince, want to stand in the third prince's team?

Mrs. Dou expressed her deep contempt for the two of them: "Master's sudden return to Beijing always makes people feel that there is a reason. Rong'er's marriage is a reason for others to see. At that time, the three princes and the team treated you The two don't get along very well, now that he beckons, you just go over and make friends with him, even if the third prince is successful in the future, how much can Jia Zhen be valued?"

Jia Zhen was not used to being called by her own mother's first and last names, and now she is more concerned about Yizhong County King: "Half of the people in Beijing know what is going on about Rong'er's marriage. It’s not that my master and I have always been close to people in the same line as the third prince, and now they won’t..." It is even more impossible for the other princes to wait for the Ningguo Mansion to pick them.

Jia Jing didn't speak, but nodded frequently after Jia Zhen finished speaking.Mrs. Dou's contempt escalated: "Do you think those two beatings were for nothing? If you haven't figured it out, why don't you beat him again." The more she thought about it, the more Mrs. Dou felt that her idea was better, and she looked at Jia Zhen His eyes were already shining.

Jia Zhen knew that his wife was not joking, so she couldn't help looking at Jia Jing from the rescuer.Unexpectedly, Jia Jing's eyes were shining brightly, and he agreed very much and wanted to do it directly.Jia Zhen began to suspect that if Jia Rong was not still young, Mrs. Dou would want him to die with Youshi right now.

Fortunately, Mrs. Dou had a timetable in mind, so she stopped Jia Jing who was looking for someone to take advantage of in time: "Master just wants to teach him a lesson, and it won't be too late to teach him a lesson before opening the ancestral hall."

The matter was settled like this, and Jia Zhen really cried: According to Mrs. Dou's discussion with Jia Jing, the opening of the ancestral hall and division should be completed before You's funeral.You Shi only stopped working for five or seven days, and now more than twenty days have passed.That is to say, after a beating, he will be beaten in less than half a month.

Things developed faster than Jia Zhen thought. Within three days, there was news of the theft in the Rongguo Mansion. Not only the public warehouse, but also the private treasuries of Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing were lost.

Speaking of it, Mother Jia was worried about gains and losses after losing the medicine. She was afraid that the things she had saved for most of her life would also be stolen, so she asked people to open a private treasury to count things three times a day.It was fine when counting on the first day, and the warehouse with good things couldn’t fit in it.When people went to order again the next day, the entire warehouse was empty.

Mother Jia's private treasury is located in the courtyard of Rongqingtang, and Rongqingtang has the largest number of people serving in the whole Rongguo Mansion, and the lock on the storehouse door is well locked, but all the things are gone. I don't believe it either.

There was an empty warehouse, and the traces of the boxes were still there, but there were no boxes at all. Believe it or not.Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng are as distressed as Jia's mother, the old lady's private house is rich, even if she can't give it all to anyone, as long as she is here, she can always get some, but now it's all gone.

With so many boxes, even if they were moved openly, it would take a long time to move them. How could they disappear overnight?When Mother Jia woke up, the first thing she thought of was her missing medicine bottle.

Both are silent.

"It's Jia Jing's daughter-in-law." Mother Jia spit out these words while biting her back molars.

Jia Amnesty was the first to laugh out: "Old lady, they are going to have a funeral, and they don't even have time to visit you when you are sick. Sister-in-law Jing is just a woman. What ability does she have to move your private treasury overnight?" There is nothing left?" He also said that he is unreliable, so you can be reliable in what you say.

Jia Zheng felt that the old lady was in a hurry and talking nonsense, so he didn't take Jia's mother's words to heart, so he just sent for the imperial physician.The result of the pulse diagnosis was naturally that Jia's mother was furious, and she might be a little confused. Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng felt that they were right.

But what happened next forced them to take Jiamu's conjecture seriously: the imperial doctor checked Jiamu's pulse and wanted to prescribe a prescription, and then someone went to the public storehouse to get the medicine, and then everyone I found that there are fewer boxes in the public library.

The public treasury is the place where the whole family in Rongguo Mansion spends their food and clothing. Of course, they need to check what the missing boxes are.After checking the ledger, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng both wanted to pass out like Jia's mother - the lesser box contained the money that the Rongguo Mansion had kept in the treasury
