[Quick Crossing + Red Mansions] I have a strong desire to survive

No, at this moment in Rongqing Hall, Jia Amnesty, Mrs. Xing brought Jia Lian, Mrs. Feng, and Mrs. Jia brought Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang, Jia Zhu, and Mrs. Li to confront each other again, and the target was still the one who had been fighting for so long— The right to be the steward of the main courtyard of the Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Zhen has been married for more than a year, and Jia Lian was married earlier than him. Mother Jia can no longer use the excuse that Mrs. Feng is not familiar with Rongguo Mansion, and still let Mrs. Wang be the housekeeper.But Mrs. Wang didn't care about the family, so Jia Zheng had no reason to continue living in Rongxi Hall, and Jia Zheng himself could no longer go out as the head of the Rongguo Mansion.

How could Mother Jia let Mrs. Wang hand over the housekeeping power!Mrs. Wang herself doesn't want to pay it.

So this kind of confrontation was staged every few months, and Mrs. Dou was a little tired of watching it, and she could even recite a few lines of Jiamu's lines.Unexpectedly, this time Jia Amnesty's attitude was extremely tough, as if Mrs. Wang did not hand over power today, he would not leave Rongqingtang.

After watching the play for a long time, Mrs. Dou also knew why Jia She showed a dead face to the visitors on the day of Jia Lian's marriage: the yard that Jia Lian tidied up when he got married was still the small courtyard in the original book, which really didn't suit him as the eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion. With the status of the eldest grandson, it's no wonder that Jia Amnesty has a good face.

This is also the reason why Jia She is more proactive than in previous lives in wanting to take back the right to housekeeping—in the original book, Jia Lian married Wang Xifeng, a wife who could handle it, and Jia She would not recognize Lao Tzu with Jia Lian. Take care of this family property for Jia Lian.In this life, Jia Lian was promoted by Jia Zhen early on, and became close to Jia She, so Jia She naturally wanted to worry about him.

As a parent, it’s okay to feel wronged by yourself, and the children who are involved are not treated well by others, and many people can’t bear it.

Jia Amnesty couldn't bear it anymore: "Old lady, I'm afraid you don't know what the second wife has done, so you think she can continue to take care of the house." One sentence attracted Madam Dou's mind completely.

Could it be that Mrs. Wang, who is already poor, still has money for usury, and was discovered by Jia Amnesty?

Mother Jia maintained the habit of patting the table without fear of pain in her hand: "What nonsense are you talking about? Your brother and daughter-in-law don't go out of the house, so what a big deal you can do."

Changing the subject, Mother Jia was obviously changing the subject.

Jia Amnesty glanced at Feng Shi, who lowered her head: "I didn't discover this. I found out that something was wrong in my in-law's house, and I found out about it after people collected evidence. If the old lady doesn't believe it, she can look at the evidence for herself." Is it true or not? I want to remind the old lady, the old lady has seen this evidence, but don’t faint out of anger, I won’t be able to explain the reason for the old lady’s fainting to the imperial doctor.”

Mother Jia also took a deep look at Feng Shi, who was bowing her head, and found that although she was bowing her head, she was sitting upright, without any sign of flinching.Even Mrs. Dou couldn't help but praise Feng's bowing her head: bow your head, you won't see Jia Mu's knife-like eyes, don't think of words to calm the old lady's anger, and let her change the subject.

The daughter of the Feng family is not simple.

Mrs. Dou's heart moved, and she understood the reason why Jia She and his son dared to challenge Jia's mother from time to time in this life: in the original book, Jia Lian ignored his parents and went around the second room, and a large part of the reason was Wang Xifeng.In this life, he married Feng's daughter, Feng Tang, but she went to the Northwest Army.

The second room relies on Wang Ziteng, and the big room now has Feng Tang.Even though Feng Tang was not in the capital, he followed the fourth prince and went to the northwest to work for the fourth prince. The fourth prince and Concubine Zhen had to take care of his daughter.

As for Wang Ziteng, from the moment Feng Tang went to the northwest, he seemed a bit weak in the eyes of the fourth prince: even if the Rongguo Mansion had military contacts, Jia Zheng would not have more contacts than Jia She.Prince Teng was able to gain a firm foothold in the Beijing camp with the help of the Rongguo Mansion's army, but his promotion all depended on Prince Yizhong's counterattack when something bad happened.

Such a person is not easy to grasp, because you don't know when he will turn back.

No wonder Wang Ziteng wanted to flirt with the third prince. He should have also realized that the fourth prince didn't treat him sincerely, and he was afraid that after the fourth prince's business was completed, he would be a cunning rabbit.The Rongguo Mansion has become a microcosm of the struggle between the Fourth Prince and the Third Prince, which makes Mrs. Dou feel that she may see something new today.

Jia's mother also found that Dafang was more confident today than in the past, and she couldn't help but look at Mrs. Wang, wondering if there was any reason for Wang's to fall into Jia She's hands.However, Mrs. Wang also lowered her eyes and kept turning the beads in her hand. It was impossible to see what she was thinking.

Having been mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for many years, Jia's mother felt that Mrs. Wang herself had no idea, so she continued to shout at Jia Amnesty in a deep voice: "There is no evidence. The life of a family is not in Shuntian Prefecture. Why do you have to say something so ugly."

Jia Amnesty took out a few pieces of paper from the waist of his boots, and shook it at Mother Jia: "The old lady is really right. Shuntian Mansion is willing to ask for such things."

Mrs. Wang's hands stopped, and she used a little more strength. The good prayer beads broke and rolled to the ground.Jia She glanced at her contemptuously: "It seems that the second wife knows this thing. Second child, come, let you see and see." Regardless of Jia's mother's expression, he directly handed the paper to Jia Zheng, and said Kindly sent Jia Zhu a piece of paper.

It was not Jia Mu who fainted, but Jia Zhu who could see clearly on the paper.Now Rongqing Hall was in chaos, Mother Jia was crying, Mrs. Wang was howling, Li Wan was crying and howling, Jia Zheng pointed at Mrs. Wang trembling with a livid face, Jia She pretended to ask Jia Lian to call for the imperial physician.

A dispute over housekeeping rights has come to an end again, but Madam Dou knows that Jia Mu and the second room will not last for a few days.

Since then, Jia Zhu has been bedridden sick. Jia's mother, Mrs. Wang and Li Wan are very sad. They open their mouths and complain that Jia She made Jia Zhu angry.This time, Jia Amnesty's ignorance was forced to come up, and he directly took out the genealogy of his patriarch, and wanted to open the ancestral hall to remove Jia Zheng's name.

Only then did Jia Mu and the others realize that Jia She is now the patriarch of the Jia family in Rongguo Mansion, and opened the ancestral hall. Not to mention Jia Zheng, even Jia Mu had no room to speak, so she had to soften her posture and apologize to Jia She. Affection.

If Jia Amnesty accepts this, how can he be worthy of his reputation for being generous?I have to invite Wang Ziteng here, and I must let the Wang family talk about how to cultivate such a wealthy daughter as Mrs. Wang, and let Wang Ziteng talk about whether his sister can continue to be the Rongguo Mansion Home.

How could Mrs. Dou not take advantage of such a good opportunity?Before the prince ascended the door of the Rongguo Mansion, the news about Mrs. Wang's suspected usury had already spread in Beijing, and even reached the ears of the fourth prince and the third prince.

The third prince was overjoyed, he felt that he had caught Wang Ziteng's handle, and began to think about how to use this matter to make Wang Ziteng take care of him.The fourth prince was furious—Jia Zheng had already surrendered to him, and Jia Yuanchun had also become an official with Concubine Zhen, but Mrs. Wang would do this to him.

My own mother and concubine are in charge of palace affairs, and I actually appointed a court lady whose mother gave us usury as a female official. This is because I am afraid that those concubines will not be able to catch the ground to criticize my concubine, right?The fourth concubine was sent into the palace by the fourth prince at that time to discuss with Concubine Zhen how to deal with the aftermath.

Before Jia Zhu recovered from his illness, news spread in the palace that Jia Yuanchun was sent to Xinzheku for committing a crime against Concubine Zhen.Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang were in a hurry after hearing this, and wanted to enter the palace to intercede for Jia Yuanchun for several days, but Zhen Guifei did not see her.

The third prince secretly approached Wang Ziteng. No one knew what they had planned. Mrs. Dou only knew that after Wang Ziteng arrived at the Rongguo Mansion, he simply apologized to Jia Amnesty and asked Mrs. Wang to settle the matter as soon as possible. .

The right to be the housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion immediately fell into Feng's hands.It's not that the fourth prince didn't do his best, and he's now forcing Jia Zheng to get rid of the Rongxi Hall as soon as possible.

Jia Jing didn't see any benefit for Mrs. Dou's actions.When asked, Mrs. Dou only told him: "The two princes have been idle for too long, and the sage needs to know that all of his sons are still motivated."

The fourth prince is self-motivated, Jia Jing always knew, but the third prince also had ideas, Jia Jing felt that after almost two years, the third prince seemed to be frightened by the matter of the fifth prince, and had given up on that idea.Since Jia Jing returned home with his wife, he has become a habit of being obedient, and has also discovered the benefits of being obedient:

Now Jia Zhen is studying with her in the mansion except for the Dachaohui.It doesn't matter how well he reads, anyway, he won't go out to find flowers and ask Liu to make friends.Jia Rong and Jia Qiang took part in last year's Tongsheng Examination together, and they were both selected as scholar. This is what made Jia Jing happiest.

Two talents!Two talents in a row!Two scholars under the age of 16 who were not obtained through the Guozijian quota!In the future, Qiu Wei and Chun Wei will be much more legitimate than the name of the prison student Jia Zhu in Rongguo Mansion.

Just because of these two scholars, how many people from Xungui's family came to ask Jia Jing to teach their children?Jia Jing refused, but he was not unhappy.How deep is this pride, and how much is the admiration for his wife.

So Jia Jing did not dare to express his own thoughts, but thought in his heart, the wife said that the third prince still wanted to seize the heir, and it was not without traces to be found. Many small officials now feel that the third prince is benevolent, filial, tolerant, It's not that the prince should be praised, but Jia Jing doesn't believe that there is no one behind the scenes to add fuel to the flames.

Could it be that the wife is also optimistic about the third prince now?Jia Jing unconsciously expressed his doubts.

Mrs. Dou looked at Jia Jing very curiously, not knowing where he came to this conclusion: "Master, the third prince wanted to win Jia Zhen, so he paid for a servant of the Ministry of Rites. In the family of the third prince, the servant is already a big one." Now that the principal Li and Shi Langzhong are still around Jia Zhen, they haven't got anything substantive. We don't have anything to give to others. If the third prince really takes the position, will he Do you realize that we are just playing with him?"

When that day really came, the third prince became furious, but no one could check and balance him.There is no need to mention the Supreme Emperor to Mrs. Dou. Under normal circumstances, any old man can live longer than his son. It will be a matter of time before the Supreme Emperor is emptied by the emperor.

"Isn't the fourth prince the same?" Jia Jing was even more confused.

"That's why neither of them wants to be emperor." Mrs. Dou said very firmly, as if she could really influence the emperor's abolition or establishment.Scared, Jia Jing jumped so high that he went to see if anyone was eavesdropping.

Noticing that there was no suspicious person in or out of Ningxuan Hall, Jia Jingcai yelled at Mrs. Dou in a low voice but sternly: "You are crazy. You think this is a matter of our family. I don't care about it with you. You can let it go." Temperament to suppress Jia Zhen and indulge Rong'er?" That's the prince, or the prince who the emperor is not dead, their own father has the final say on who will rise to the top, ma'am.

This was the first time that Jia Jing spoke to Mrs. Dou in a tough manner. It can be seen that this person still has courage for the survival of Ningguo Mansion.I just don't know what kind of illness I had back then, so I had to escape from the world by practicing Taoism.

Madam Dou nodded affirmatively to Jia Jing: "No matter who threatens our house, even if I kill and set fire to myself, I will let him be buried with me."

This man is crazy.Jia Jing came to such a conclusion and pointed at Madam Dou with trembling fingers, not knowing how he should dispel her crazy idea.Mrs. Dou is also very wronged, okay, the conscience of heaven and earth, what she said is the truth.

Even if the space ability is due to a problem with the royal family, but Mrs. Dou has tried it quietly, and her fire ability can still be used in the last days.It's just that Donald and others coveted the things they brought back to the end of the world, and they had long forgotten that what they first awakened was the fire ability.

With this trump card, as long as he can return to the end of the world, he will have no problem surviving.But if he lost his life in the world of Red Mansions and couldn't even go back to the end of the world, he would really be wiped out.

The lesser of two evils, if the royal family really threatened her life, given Mrs. Dou's desire to survive, she would not mind killing the third and fourth princes again.

Jia Jing had nothing to say, he didn't know if it was too late for him to return to the Taoist temple.Mrs. Dou had something to ask him: "I remember the natal family of the concubine Jing, it seems to have something to do with the master?"

Concubine?Jia Jing had to think carefully before digging out the relationship between himself and her from the depths of his memory: Concubine Jing's maiden surnamed Zhou, her father Zhou Jie, was a former Minister of the Imperial Palace, so coincidentally, she was of the same clan as Jia Jing's natal family .

Jia Jing and his natal family hadn't walked around for many years. If Madam Dou hadn't reminded him, why would he think of Zhou Jielai?

No, Jia Jing's eyes are wide open, Concubine Jing is not alone in the palace, she also has a son who has begun to listen to the government, Xingba!

Where did the wife get the news? Jia Jing has no intention of guessing, and just resignedly waited for Madam Dou's next instruction: "What does the wife want me to do?"

"Master, just go and walk around with your cousins."

Jia Jing's natal family is so easy to pick up?When he suddenly wanted to practice Taoism, his uncle had not come to Ningguo Mansion to scold and persuade him, but he was sent back by Jia Jing, making his uncle seriously ill, and his body has been weak since then.

Uncle died within two years, and none of the cousins ​​hated Jia Jing, so the two families broke off contact.How can Jia Jing have the face to go to Zhou's house now?

Mrs. Dou, who is good at making things difficult for others, said, if you don't go, then I will lead everyone in Ningguo Mansion to isolate you.Whether it was Jia Zhen or Jia Rong or Jia Qiang, he didn't care if he ignored Jia Jing. Anyway, if he wanted to ask questions, the three would not dare not answer.

What Jia Jing cares about and can't bear the most is that his daughter really ignores him.Every time Jia Jing asked her, Jia Yuan's chubby face would be raised high, and without looking at Jia Jing, she would just say: "Master doesn't listen to his wife, ignore him."

What about your father's dignity?Jia Jing really wanted to ask this arrogant little girl, do you know what it means to obey your father at home?However, he didn't even dare to think about this problem. When he thought that in a few years, the little chubby girl would grow into a graceful girl, and would be missed by countless families. If they wanted to take it away from him, Jia Jingxin would cut her with a knife. same.

Now that the daughter doesn't care about me, won't she have the chance to talk when she gets married in the future?It's better to cultivate a good relationship with my daughter now, so that she can remember her goodness, and when she gets married in the future, she can think of her old father a lot, and return to Ning a few more times.

Mrs. Dou really didn't know that Jia Jing was thinking so far, she simply knew that Jia Yuan was the one who hurt Jia Jing the most, and the most unbearable thing was that his daughter ignored him, so she taught Jia Yuan to be cold and Jia Jing for a few days.

After three days, Jia Jing took a few calligraphy and paintings out of the house, and at noon, he returned to the house dejectedly holding those calligraphy and paintings.Jia Yuan heard that Jia Jing was back, and trotted to the second gate: "Master, why are you unhappy?"

Seeing his beloved little girl talking to him, Jia Jing's son-in-law anger at the gate of Zhou's house flew out of Jiuxiaoyun: "Is Yuan'er waiting for father?"

Jia Yuan nodded, her double chin flickered and her face trembled, making people want to support her: "Madam said, the master is running for Yuan'er's life, it's hard work. Master, what is running for life?"

What is Benming?To live well is to run for one's life.What does it matter if I can let my little girl live well without worrying about saving her life?

Jia Jing was full of energy all of a sudden, for four or five days in a row, he went out with his paintings and calligraphy wrapped in glamorous packages, and returned home at noon with a package covered in dust.What is consoling is that the little girl greeted him every day unshakably, and even hugged her neck to thank him for taking care of her.

This makes Jia Jing how can he not continue to go out like chicken blood on the second day?

Jia Zhen felt sorry for her master: "The cousins ​​of the Zhou family are too unsympathetic. My wife also persuaded the master, the twisted melon is not sweet, so why bother to put your face on someone's cold ass?"

Mrs. Dou, who forced Jia Jing to stick to other people's cold ass, looked at Jia Zhen coldly: "Boss Li and Mr. Shi, you don't have to deal with them anymore."

You came up with it this day, is it really good?Jia Zhen complained incomparably: "Why?" Can you give me an accurate explanation? They came to post your cold ass, but didn't you agree to be posted?

"It won't be long before we have masters." Mrs. Dou showed Jia Zhen what it means to be non-surprising and endless.

Jia Zhen found it very frightening. Since the birth of her younger sister, the wife has acted a little wildly, and it was only when she thought of it.She made Jia Rong the illegitimate daughter of Prince Yizhong, and she scolded the master for bringing the whole family into the fire pit.

This is his calculation, and he admits it.But my wife herself, today let me associate with the old department of Prince Yizhong's mansion, tomorrow let me associate with Uncle Gu of the fifth prince's family, and send myself out with Mr. Li and others of the third prince's family the next day.

It's better than doing it yourself!

She is no longer stepping on two boats, she is clearly betting on several sides.However, no matter what happened to Prince Yizhong's mansion or the fifth prince, his family was not involved at all.Jia Zhen also thought that his wife acted in a superior manner, but she also had to say that her family had casual acquaintances with those two factions, and did not go deep into any of the prince's camps.

But now the wife suddenly said that there is a master in her house.Recognize others as the master, it is not drinking tea and playing Tai Chi together like Mr. Li and others, but putting your life in the hands of others!

Besides, who is the future master of your family, can you say something plain?Jia Zhen looked at her own mother resentfully, hoping that she would find out with a conscience.

Conscience found it impossible, Jia Jing only returned to the mansion that night, Ben told Mrs. Dou with a happy face that the eldest cousin of the Zhou family was finally moved by his sincerity, and let him sit in the mansion today.

Then, like Jia Zhen, she was shocked by Mrs. Dou's remarks: "Ma'am, don't we not participate in these things?" I knew it was not that simple for you to ask me to get closer to Zhou's cousin.

Mrs. Dou said with certainty: "I didn't participate in the past because the time was not yet ripe. The master also saw that the third prince and the fourth prince have recently begun to be unable to hold back. I'm afraid Wang Ziteng has fallen for the third prince. Where is the fourth prince?" The beloved concubine's mother."

"It's true that those two have been trying to win our house over, but we don't have what they're planning. Once it's time for them to ask us for it, that's when our house will be set on fire."

"At that time, the combined anger of the two princes will be unbearable to the Ningguo Mansion."

Then you still let our father and son deal with several princes?Jia Jing and Jia Zhen looked at each other and thought of something for the first time.

Mrs. Dou seemed to see the minds of the two of them: "In the past, you were allowed to walk among the princes in order to check and balance. The more people who are thinking about the things in our house, the more we make things that are up for grabs." Attitude, Ningguo Mansion is safer."

"They are afraid that if they show a little coercion, our mansion will fall to others. So in the past few years, the loss of power of the two royal mansions has not involved our mansion."

Jia Jing was the first to understand that there were only three or four princes left in the court, and it was time for Tuqiong to meet him.If my own mansion doesn't bring out some real things, those two can make the Ningguo mansion beyond redemption even if they pull one leg.

Jia Zhen still didn't understand, the fifth prince went to the Northwest for several years, and Jia Yuan was over four years old, the third and fourth princes wanted to take action against Ningguo Mansion, how could they wait for so many years?

The cheap son is too stupid, but Jia Jing, who knows how to make up his own brain, is better to shake it. Mrs. Dou had no choice but to tell him: "This is different from the past. You are a person who goes to court every day. Don't you find that the time of the saint's court is getting closer and closer?" The shorter it is, the more often people just bow down and then leave the dynasty?"

Jia Zhen couldn't help but admire: "How did my wife know about this?" She obviously didn't mention it when she returned home.
