[Red Mansion + Martial Arts] The Virgin Strikes
Chapter 4 A Dream of Red Mansions--Mother Jia
This is not bad!Mrs. Wang stood up abruptly, and led the people straight to Jia Mu's room energetically.
The old lady said before that the smashing of jade was for the good of Baoyu, but now it is for his own good that Baoyu is not allowed to study?Mrs. Wang curled her lips helplessly and sneered, wanting to see what flowers the old lady could come up with this time.It's better to have a convincing reason, otherwise, don't blame her for being rude as a daughter-in-law.
As she walked, Mrs. Wang suddenly felt as if she had returned to more than 20 years ago. At that time, she was the second grandmother who was praised by everyone in Rongfu for her quick work.It has been more than [-] years since she struggled to reach her current power and status, and she must not be easily taken away by anyone.
Before Madam Wang entered the house, she stopped and summoned Zhou Rui's family to ask: "The old ancestor has been a little strange these past two days, you have to go to Pearl's place to inquire about it."
Zhou Rui's family moved their eyeballs and immediately responded.
Mrs. Wang straightened her clothes, took a deep breath, and then signaled the servant girl to pick up the curtains for her.In addition to the old lady and her maidservants, Baoyu, Jialan and Li Wan were also in the room.
Baoyu had obviously just cried, her eyes were red, and she looked at Mrs. Wang as if asking for help.Mrs. Wang used to see Baoyu have such eyes, but they were not for her, but for begging the old lady, but now it's the other way around.
Mrs. Wang greeted the old lady and sat down.She watched the old lady's expression secretly, neither happy nor angry, she was indifferent, completely different from the anger shown yesterday.Mrs. Wang was not sure, and felt that it would be better for her not to make a sound, and wait and see what happened.
Qian Xiaoqiao guessed that someone must have tipped Mrs. Wang, so she was able to come here with such certainty.She can probably guess what Madam Wang's state of mind is at the moment.The enemy doesn't move and I don't move, Qian Xiaoqiao doesn't say a word.It's just that she was not idle even when she was silent, and stared coldly at the maids who waited on her in the room, mandarin ducks, jadeite, glass... Only Pearl tried her best to show a calm attitude when she received her gaze, waiting for her to wait for her. After she looked away, Pearl secretly wiped her palms with a handkerchief.
Mrs. Wang couldn't wait any longer, so she spoke first, not to Jia's mother, but to Baoyu: "Why don't you go to school?"
"I, I..." Baoyu looked at Jiamu in fear, not daring to speak.
"Mother, what's the matter with Baoyu?" Mrs. Wang deftly turned the conversation to Jiamu.
"It's healed and the scar forgets the pain, it deserves it!" Qian Xiaoqiao chuckled lightly, sipping tea without complacency, and said nothing more.
Mrs. Wang was shocked by Jia Mu's frivolous attitude. She couldn't believe that the cold-hearted old lady in front of her was her mother-in-law. So where did the kind and smiling old man die?
Mrs. Wang regretted that she hadn't figured out the facts beforehand, and now she didn't dare to say more with Jia's mother's attitude, so she had to quietly invite Li Wan to ask what happened.
It turned out that Baoyu was aggrieved by the move early in the morning, and pretended to have a stomachache so he didn't go to school. Unfortunately, Jia's mother found out that he had made a mistake and completely exempted him from school.Jia Lan was also left behind somehow.
Mrs. Wang had confidence in her heart. First, she taught Baoyu a few words in front of Jia's mother, and then she refuted Jia's mother, saying: "It's enough to teach him a few words because of his temper. It won't really stop him from going to school. Our Rongfu will still count on them in the future. Ancestor, do you think this is the reason?"
"I'm not old-fashioned yet. I definitely won't go to school, but I must read the books. Instead, I'll invite a senior teacher to come tomorrow." Qian Xiaoqiao glanced at Baoyu coldly, and said admonishingly, "From now on, you have to Hold yourself tight! A gentleman speaks few words but tells the truth, you should be this kind of person, not a villain who tells lies!"
Baoyu saw that Jia Mu was fighting with her again, and remembered all the good things she had done with Jia Mu in the past, and suddenly felt extremely wronged, and burst into tears.
Mrs. Jia's education was right, and Mrs. Wang was not easy to refute. She looked at Baoyu bitterly and complained that he was not up to date.Mrs. Wang felt that she had lost face, so she pleaded guilty to the old lady and pulled him out with a dark face.
At the right time, Wang Xifeng came in with a smile, complimented the old lady with a slick face, said good things for Mrs. Wang and Baoyu, and persuaded Jiamu to take back the order.Why not go to your own school and spend extra money to ask a teacher to teach.
"You don't need to persuade me too much, I've made up my mind." Qian Xiaoqiao had planned long ago not to let Baoyu wait to go to school.
Right now, Qian Xiaoqiao has a clear goal in his mind: to complete the task and leave here as soon as possible.If she wants to fulfill her grand ambition of revitalizing the Rong Mansion, she has to start with a doll.There are only two people in Rongfu who may have a future, Jia Lan and Baoyu who is waiting to be transferred/taught.
Where is Jia's Academy?Good and evil are mixed together, all of them are ignorant and incompetent sons and daughters.As the saying goes, those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black. If you want to educate Baoyu and Jialan well, you must first create a good learning environment for them.
As for Jia Lian and his wife, who have already been identified, Qian Xiaoqiao's biggest requirement for them is to keep themselves safe.Both of them are quite intelligent, and it is not difficult to educate them.The most worrying ones are Jia She and his wife, who are old and have a lot of bad problems, which are so bad to the bone that it is difficult to deal with them.Her future focus should be here, Jia She is the eldest son, hereditary title, and is equivalent to the spokesperson of Rongfu.
Qian Xiaoqiao asked Jia She and his wife to come to her earlier, but Jia She hasn't shown up yet.Seeing the truth in small things, the hope of Jia Amnesty's transformation is really not great.He has always been self-righteous and sensual, and he is probably already a waste product; but Qian Xiaoqiao still plans to try him before making a decision.
"Old ancestor?" Wang Xifeng already admired the majesty of Jia's mother, but when she saw her old man's sudden silence, she felt a little uncertain.
"I'm entrusting you with something. You and Lian'er are going to find out who is the best wife in the capital. He is not only talented, but also has a good character. You must hire the best one. Money is not a problem. From my side out."
Qian Xiaoqiao also talked to Wang Xifeng about the principles of thrift in housekeeping. From now on, no matter how big or small the Rong Mansion is, it must try to keep a low profile and not allow extravagance.In any era, no money is absolutely impossible.Qian Xiaoqiao knew Wang Xifeng's tricks, let her spend her energy on Rongfu's financial reform, and with a little education, she probably would not have so much thought to do bad things.
When Wang Xifeng heard about Jia Mu's arrangement, she suddenly felt lighter.In recent years, she has been housekeeper and knows Rongfu's financial situation best. The total income of the seven major villages is only more than 8000 taels a year. According to the current level of luxury of Rongfu, it is not enough, and almost [-] taels are overdrawn every year.The tens of thousands of taels of silver that my ancestors worked so hard to save are about to be eaten up.It's a pity that she is young and has no right to speak, so she has to spend the money painstakingly.Today, she finally watched the moonlight as the clouds opened.
"Based on your ability, I can rest assured that the power of stewardship is completely entrusted to you. The whole Rongfu, you can do whatever you want. However, you must keep your identity in mind, and you must not play tricks. What happens? Do it properly, if there are difficulties, just ask me to discuss it, don't be brave."
Wang Xifeng's heart trembled when he heard the second half of the words.She probably understood what the old lady meant by beating her, and even more read that the old lady had the determination to evade Mrs. Wang.In the past two days, she has seen the courage of the old lady. She is worthy of being the daughter of the Hou family. Her thoughtfulness and cunning are truly unmatched. With her old man as her backer, what is she afraid of?Now is a good time for her to really take power in the Rong Mansion, she can't wish for it, so naturally she has to perform well.Wang Xifeng obediently agreed, and issued a military order to ensure that the housekeeper, who is a law-abiding housekeeper, will not covet a single thing.
After Qian Xiaoqiao arranged these things, he ate lunch in a good mood. After a short squint, he started the next item on his agenda, which was to visit Jia Amnesty.
Mrs. Xing loves money like her life. In order to collect money, she loves to find faults with maids and wives, and takes the opportunity to deduct their monthly money.
When Qian Xiaoqiao brought people here, he encountered this scene.Not only did the little girl have no money this month, she was also repaired by Mrs. Xing, she was so wronged that she shed tears.
Mrs. Xing was furious when she saw a group of maids standing at the door surrounded by Jia Mu, she was stunned.
Qian Xiaoqiao walked in the door with a slight smile, sat down, looked at the little maid who was kneeling and crying with her hand on her chin, and sighed: "Daughter-in-law, you have a good show, why don't you call me."
"I, I..." Mrs. Xing turned pale and faltered.After holding back for a long time, he finally said something powerful, but he yelled at the maid in the room: "The old ancestor is here, and you don't call me!"
Qian Xiaoqiao sneered: "Don't blame them, no one will serve you sincerely when you treat people like this."
Mrs. Xing was so choked that she couldn't speak, and her face turned even paler.
"What about him?"
It was only now that Mrs. Xing knew that the old lady came in person to find Jia Amnesty, and she was eager to reply quickly: "I'm afraid I'm still drinking with my concubine."
Qian Xiaoqiao looked at Mrs. Xing with a smile for a while, was taken aback, and then got up and went to the concubine Cuiyun's room.
Jia She and Cuiyun were drinking heartily in the room, Cuiyun's clothes were disheveled, a piece of white flesh was exposed at the neckline, Jia She's slightly aged hands were covering her white and tender chest.
Qian Xiaoqiao saw this scene when he entered the door.Jia Amnesty stared at her in a daze for a moment, forgetting to withdraw her hand.
"I have time to accompany my little wife, but I don't have time to see me. Huh? My good son!" Qian Xiaoqiao approached Cuiyun with a smile.
Jia She blushed in embarrassment, and quickly withdrew his hand.Cuiyun was so frightened that Fu knelt down and pleaded guilty to the old lady.
Qian Xiaoqiao's face suddenly turned cold: "Master Charming is all about sensuality, he deserves to be beaten to death!"
"Mother!" Jia Amnesty stared at Jia's mother with wide eyes in disbelief. Did the words just now come from his kind mother's mouth?
"You still know that I'm your mother!" Qian Xiaoqiao turned his head and winked at the women, who immediately rolled up their sleeves and dragged Cuiyun out.Cuiyun struggled several times to no avail, and shouted for Jia to pardon and save him.
Jia Amnesty became anxious, kicked the two women away, and protected Cuiyun behind him. "Mother, it was my son who asked her to drink with me, and he wants to punish me!"
"Don't worry, I have time to look for you!" Qian Xiaoqiao looked at Jia Amnesty seriously, and said, "I'll just ask you, will this problem be corrected? Will I be able to be an official in the future?"
Unconvinced, Jia Amnesty tilted her head and did not answer, showing no respect for Jia's mother at all.
"So good!" Qian Xiaoqiao sneered, patted Jia Amnesty on the shoulder, and walked away without further words.
The old lady said before that the smashing of jade was for the good of Baoyu, but now it is for his own good that Baoyu is not allowed to study?Mrs. Wang curled her lips helplessly and sneered, wanting to see what flowers the old lady could come up with this time.It's better to have a convincing reason, otherwise, don't blame her for being rude as a daughter-in-law.
