"Report to Prince Consort,

Princess, please see Guan Yan outside. "

"Then let him come in."

"Yes."

"Slave sees Her Royal Highness, sees Master." Guan Yan saluted respectfully.Now Jia Jue and Zhaoyang's servants have a tacit understanding.

The people on Jia Jue's side always put the princess in front of Jia Jue when they greeted each other, while the people in Zhaoyang did the opposite.

This is also a show of affection.

"How are things going?"

"If you go back to the father,

The slaves have checked it out,

The current mistress of the Wei family is the concubine sister of the previous mistress. Less than a year after the death of the original mistress of the Wei family, Master Wei married the current mistress.This lady has a good reputation in the capital,

He didn't suppress or kill his original wife's legitimate son.It's just that the original wife's son-in-law has been in poor health since he was a child,

It doesn't appear in front of people very much.Moreover, the relationship between this Young Master Wei and Master Wei is not very good.It doesn't have a high status in the Wei family. "

"This time the marriage between the Wei family and the Shi family is also very sudden.

It is said that the mistress of the house is the master.It is said that Miss Yunyun is healthy and fertile, so she made the decision to hire her home. "

"Only found these?"

"The slave feels that there are many ambiguities in it,

So I tried to find a way to find the servants of the original mistress,

Learn about some of the previous situations.But to the surprise of the slave, the current Wei family no longer has any of the servants who used to serve beside the original mistress.The servant inquired about these people, who seemed to have disappeared quietly one after another in the past few years. "

"It's a bit of a cover-up." If there is really nothing wrong, why should the step-wife spend so much effort to eradicate the sister-in-law.

You must know that generally speaking, when a mother dies, her dowry servants and confidantes will basically be arranged around her children.Just like in Jia's house, Jia Lian had very few original Zhang family members around him.

But there are still.Although not an important person.The reason why Jia Lian is like this is also because it involves the secrets of the back house.

Does that mean that the inside of the Wei family is not simple?Thinking of what he discovered at the last wedding banquet,

Jia Jue felt that this should be an obvious thing.

"is not that right,

The more the servant checked, the more he felt that this stepmother was not simple.I was afraid to scare the snake, so I thought about going back and talking to my grandfather first. "

"You go to Wei's house later to deliver some health pills. If Wei Ruolan is smart enough, he will know what to do." The relationship between the Wei family and the Feng family is unclear,

Wei Ruolan can be a very good pawn.

"Yes."

"Sir,

Why don't you just send it in my name, and just send some to Yingchun and the others. "Zhaoyang already knows that her husband knows medicine, and the health-care pills are very effective. She has been taking it for a month,

The change in the whole person is obvious.

She planned to send some to the palace after three months of eating.Of course it was given to my mother, but as to whether to use it for my father or not, it depends on my mother's will.

She didn't dare to send the imported pills to her father rashly.

"Alright." It is more appropriate to send Shi Xiangyun in the name of a princess.

Soon the Wei family received a bunch of gifts from the Princess Mansion.Master Wei and Mrs. Wei were naturally flattered.

"Master Wei and Mrs. Wei don't need to be too polite. The princess heard that Grandma Wei often went to Rongguo Mansion to honor the old lady before she came out of the cabinet, so she asked the servant girl to bring a gift to Miss Yun." The nun beside Zhaoyang spoke softly. , with a kind attitude, he praised Shi Xiangyun for his filial piety to Jia's mother inside and outside.

Master Wei and Mrs. Wei naturally agreed no matter what they thought in their hearts.

After Mammy left, the people sent by Master Wei and Mrs. Wei to inquire soon returned. There were several waves of gift-giving people from the Princess Mansion, so it was not difficult to check.

Knowing that it was a gift from the princess to the sisters who were filial to the old matriarch, Mrs. Wei dared not stop it no matter how jealous she was.Shi Xiangyun felt absent-mindedly as he touched the top-grade silk fabrics used in clothing.

"Ma'am, cough cough, what's the matter?" Wei Ruolan was supported by the girl and came over.

"Sir, why are you here? Didn't the doctor say you're going to be on bed rest?" Shi Xiangyun hurriedly got up and helped Wei Ruolan onto a chair and sat down.

"Lying on the bed all day long, my bones are almost falling apart. Are these rewards from the Princess Mansion?" Wei Ruolan patted Shi Xiangyun's hand reassuringly, and glanced at the pile of things.

"Well, the princess has spent a lot of money. Filial piety to the old lady is what us juniors should do." Shi Xiangyun nodded.

"If madam misses Mrs. Jia, you can also visit Jia's house." Wei Ruolan smiled softly, it was better than guarding his half-dead husband all day long.

"Now that I'm married, how can I be as reckless as in the boudoir. Besides, I don't feel at ease with my husband." The short marriage life has already changed Shi Xiangyun's personality a lot.

"By the way, apart from these things, the Princess House also gave me a bottle of health pills. The old lady gave me some when I lived in Jia's house. It was prepared by Brother Jue himself. Our sisters, the old lady, and the wives all Use it, the effect is very good. You might as well use it, Husband.”

"Okay." Wei Ruolan did not refuse, he has been ill for a long time.In fact, I know that many health pills should not be eaten indiscriminately, but what is the difference between eating or not eating with his body, in order to make his wife feel at ease, it doesn't matter if he eats the poison.

Originally, he didn't want to agree to this marriage. Isn't it just delaying other girls by marrying a wife with his body.It's just that he, like Xiang Yun, has no right to make his own decision on this matter.

His current thinking is that if one day he really dies, he will leave his last words and allow his wife to remarry.

Shi Xiangyun happily asked someone to bring warm water, took out a jade bottle and poured out a pill exuding a medicinal fragrance.

Naturally, Wei Ruolan also smelled the lingering fragrance of the medicine, and he immediately realized that the medicine pills his wife brought out were not ordinary health-preserving pills.

I remembered that my wife said that the pill was formulated by the son-in-law who was six yuan and the first.For a while, he was very curious about that young master Jia.

After taking this health pill, Wei Ruolan felt as if a warm current washed his battered body from top to bottom.

"Ma'am, this medicine?"

"How does your husband feel?" Shi Xiangyun observed Wei Ruolan's face.

"This medicine is not simple, and I feel much more comfortable."

"Really! That's great. My husband will use three pills a day in the future. In the past, Sister Lin was the worst among our sisters. The third brother asked her to eat three pills a day. Later, when Sister Lin's health recovered, we would be with her." We also only eat one a day. The amount of this jade bottle can only last for half a month, but it’s okay, I will ask the third brother for a while. He has taken care of us sisters since he was a child, so he should not refuse me.” Shi Xiangyun Smiling and said to Wei Ruolan.

"This medicine is worth a lot at first glance, the son-in-law..."

"Don't worry, my husband. At most, I will send some more gifts over there." Shi Xiangyun felt that Jia Jue would not help.After all, the third brother loved them very much since he was a child.

Wei Ruolan looked at her heartless wife, feeling helpless and funny.The past was the past, and the present is the present.What's more, it is not his wife but him who is taking these medicines now.

Wei Ruolan knew that what she was holding could not arouse the interest of the son-in-law.Thinking of some things at home, the smile on Wei Ruolan's face finally faded.In the eyes of his father, she is not the eldest son, no matter how much he persuades, it will be useless. If the Wei family gets involved in such a thing, he will meet the ending of the house raid in the future.

In the past, he didn't live long, and there weren't too many things and people he cared about in this family, so he didn't care about the ending.But if he had the chance to survive, he didn't want to die young, and he didn't want to have his bloodline cut off.

Wei Ruolan played with the jade bottle in her hand, maybe this is an opportunity.

A chance for him to get out of the deadly situation of the Wei family.

"Eldest young master, eldest grandma, Miss San is here."

Shi Xiangyun frowned, she didn't like this sister-in-law very much, not to mention her arrogant temper, and she also liked to count other people's things, thinking of her jewelry that she took away with various reasons, Shi Xiangyun's face was very bad.

"Cough cough..."

"Husband!"

"Cough, cough, cough..." Wei Ruolan's sudden onset made Shi Xiangyun immediately forget her sister-in-law, and let the servant girl send her back

Miss Wei San, who felt that she was being treated rudely, naturally wanted to complain to Mrs. Wei.

"You are shallow-sighted, you don't want to be ashamed of taking advantage of the past." Mrs. Wei reprimanded her daughter.

"But those are all useful things. Isn't it a waste to use them for that sick man and broom star?" Miss Wei San pouted and retorted.

"Are you stupid? You are not married yet. If the reputation of coveting sister-in-law's things spreads, do you think you can still marry a good family? And it was sent to Shi Xiangyun by the princess mansion. I didn't even ask for it. You It’s impatient.”

"Mother, didn't you say before that the broom star's things will be mine in the future?"

"That's in the future, after Da Lang is killed by Shi Ke. What are you in a hurry for?"

"Mother, when are you going to let that sick child out of our way?"

"What's the hurry? His life has always been in my hands. Whether he is alive or dead is just a matter of my words. Now it seems that Shi Shi has something to do with the Princess Mansion. If she can take you there a few times At the banquet held by the Princess Mansion, the number of people you can marry in the future will be much higher than we expected."

"Mom, what do you mean?"

"We will have a good relationship with Mrs. Shi in the future. Your father is in good health, so he is not in a hurry to separate the family." Mrs. Wei wanted to squeeze out all the value of her stepson and step-daughter-in-law before sending her stepson to accompany her mother who died early.

Thinking that the high-ranking sister-in-law in the boudoir has already passed away, and her only son is under her applause, Mrs. Wei feels very comfortable.

When Jia Jue received Wei Ruolan's greeting card, he only raised his eyebrows slightly. It seemed that this Young Master Wei was in a very bad situation at home, so he sent him a greeting card so soon.

"Go and tell him that the princess and I will come to Jia's house to pay respects to the old lady in five days."

"Yes."

"Husband, what should we prepare for the old lady's birthday?" Seeing that Jia Jue had already finished his work, Zhao Yang stepped forward to ask.

"The old lady has nothing, so let's just be careful. You can prepare things according to the rules on the surface, and send them to grandma in private for our filial piety." Jiamu's 66th birthday this year, according to her It means that it is not necessary to do a whole life.

But the children and grandchildren below obviously don't think so. The old lady looks very tough, but after all, she is old, and she can be entertained for a few more years if she can.

Jia Jue naturally agreed. He knew that Mother Jia liked to be lively, so he gave Wang Xifeng 1 taels of silver a month ago, and asked her to make the birthday banquet lively.

Jiajia

"How is the preparation for the old lady's birthday banquet?" Jia Lian hurried in and wiped his sweat with the towel that Ping'er handed over.

"Don't worry about me. I've already taken care of the inner house. The girls have helped a lot." Wang Xifeng took off the jewelry from her head while looking in the mirror.

"But have you done the previous things?"

"The invitations have already been sent out, according to the old practice." Jia Lian poured a cup of tea.

"According to the old practice? Did your familiar colleagues over there post a post?" Wang Xifeng suddenly turned to look at Jia Lian.

"Aiyo, aiyo! My brain!" Jia Lian immediately understood, and stopped sitting and got up to leave.

"Wait, do you know who to post to?"

"Master Tobe?"

"Come on, don't make any more trouble. You take a blank post and give it directly to Brother Jue, and ask him to write who he wants to invite." Wang Xifeng said, she felt that the relationship between people in the court could not be seen as ordinary. of.Let Jia Jue decide for himself.

Now all the posts on their mansion have been posted, if they post another post now as the Rongguo mansion, those who don't know will think that their Rongguo mansion is defiant.

On the contrary, posting in the name of Jia Jue or even the princess, those people will feel that they are valued.

"Understood." Jia Lian knew what Wang Xifeng meant after thinking about it for a while, and felt that the daughter-in-law was still reliable.Thinking of Jia Rong who sold him women a few days ago, the charm in Jia Lian's heart disappeared a lot.

No matter how beautiful the second sister You is, she is not clean, and she is also the step-sister of the You family in Dongfu. Neither the old lady nor the third brother will agree to take people into the house.If he was placed outside, he now has a son and a daughter, and if he is found out with the temperament of his tigress, the world will be turned upside down.

At that time, it will be embarrassing not to mention what his children will think of him in the future.

Thinking about his father's position and image in the eyes of his third brother, he didn't want to have such an incompetent and lecherous image in his son's eyes in the future.

Jia Jue sent Jia Lian away, looked at the post in his hand, picked up the brush on the desk and began to write.

On the day of the 66th birthday of the old lady of Rongguo Mansion, it was full of guests, and the entire Rongguo Mansion was full of traffic.Wang Xifeng was so busy that she didn't even have time to drink.

In other families, there may be sisters-in-law to help, but here in Wang Xifeng's case, the sister-in-law is the princess, no one dares to let her out, and the cousins ​​are widows, so they can't be too public.Fortunately, there are a few sister-in-laws to help, otherwise she would not even have time to catch her breath.

Of course, the main helpers are the older Yingchun and Tanchun.

Yingchun has already practiced with Wang Xifeng for a long time, and Tanchun was originally good at this.The two of them arranged a lot of things in the inner house.

"Sister Lin, the two of us are the only ones who have nothing to do now." Xichun came to Lin Daiyu's room, and saw Lin Daiyu reading a book just after entering the door.

"Ledger? Sister Lin will also read these?" Xichun was surprised.

"You blabbering all day long, girl, why can't I see this anymore." Lin Ruhai handed over the management of the Lin family's properties in the capital and surrounding areas to her after she had arranged a marriage for her daughter.It is said that it will be her dowry in the future.

She also arranged a nanny in charge of the Lin family by her side to facilitate her management of these matters.

Lin Daiyu didn't care much about these common affairs at first, but she didn't want her father to worry about her even more.Now she is used to it, and she accepted the proposal of the third brother to open a school in her own Zhuangzi.Free schooling for the children of the farmers.

Now she is no longer the daughter of a family who knows nothing about the outside world. She knows what kind of blow a heavy snow that they think is a beautiful scenery will hit the poor farmers.She knew how many people they could save with the wasted food and clothing they used on weekdays.

Her sorrows and sorrows are so incomprehensible to ordinary people.

The third brother is right, knowledge can change destiny.She gave those children the opportunity to study, not to allow them to take the imperial examination to become officials, but to give them more choices in the future.

"Sister Lin, are these your own properties?" Xichun was curious.

Lin Daiyu didn't hide it from her, and told the story roughly, including what Jia Jue told her.

"This is indeed what the third brother would say. No man in the family is more favored than the third brother, but he is the only one who knows the sufferings of the people outside." Xichun has always admired Jia Jue, not only because of the good relationship between the two, but because It's Jia Jue's way of dealing with people since he was a child, which is different from other men in this mansion.

"Yeah, the third brother was born miraculously. It's normal to be thankful if you know it. Just like there is one champion every three years in this world. But it's rare to see a six-yuan and first-ranked man in a hundred years."

Lin Daiyu and Jia Xichun are both Jia Jue's fans, and in their hearts, no one is more powerful than their third brother among their peers.Even among the elders, there are few who can match the third elder brother.

"Girl, Miss Four, Miss Second and Miss Three said that they want you to go and entertain the girls from various families together." Zijuan reminded after entering the door.

"understood."

Jia Jue doesn't like socializing, or in other words, he doesn't like the interaction of too many people, because he finds it noisy.But today is the old lady's birthday, and the old lady has loved him since he was a child, and he also sincerely respects his close relatives.For the joy of his grandmother, it was rare for Jia Jue to sincerely receive people who came to celebrate his birthday.

It's just that there are too many people.

"Where is this? There are still many uninvited ones, some of which have not been brought in." Jia Lian wiped the sweat from his forehead. He looked quite tired, but his eyes were shining.You can see that you are in a good mood.

"There are so many people in chaos, let people guard the middle gate, so don't bump into the female relatives."

"Don't worry, I've already made arrangements." Those servants who neglected their duties at home have almost cleaned up, and in order to ensure nothing goes wrong, he directly borrowed someone from the old lady.

"That's good, by the way, is there someone from the Wei family?"

"The Wei family seems to be here. I have seen Sister Yun, and she should be with the old lady in the house now." Jia Lian replied.

"Okay, when it's a good time, you can find a chance to ask Mr. Wei to visit Qinghuiyuan."

Jia Lian knew what to do as soon as he heard it.

"I know, it won't be noticed."

Jia Jue nodded. Actually, he wasn't that serious, but seeing Jia Lian's eagerness to try, Jia Jue didn't say this, it's fine if no one notices.

"When the old lady starts playing, I'll ask someone to take him to see you."

"Okay." Jia Jue nodded.

Opera is an indispensable part of banquets held by rich and noble families. Many families will raise some small opera actors in their own homes, and let them come out to sing operas during the big banquet.

Of course, there are also some families who think this is very extravagant, and will invite famous opera troupes from the capital to perform at their residence when necessary.

In the past few years, Jia's family has had a lot of big and small banquets, but they often invite opera troupes from the capital to perform in the mansion.Actors are known as three religions and nine streams, so it is natural to be cautious when inviting someone with such an identity into the mansion.So Lin Butler would send someone to watch these people every time.

It was the first time for the head of the Virtue Art Troupe to perform at Jia's house. It was another theater troupe that Jia's family often invited to their home.It was only this time that the troupe was invited by Prince Zhongshun, so the Jia family had to change.

Qinghuiyuan

Jia Jue looked at the thin young man in front of him, his face was pale and there was no blood at all.The exposed skin was also pale and feeble, and it was obvious that he was a chronically ill person.

But looking at the expression on his face, there is no misery or depression that a sick person should have.

"You know what's on your body isn't a disease, it's poison, right?" Jia Jue's words were so explosive that Wei Ruolan, who was opposite him, had a look of surprise in his eyes, but he didn't lose his face in shock.

"It seems that you really know." Jia Jue nodded, this is a very smart person.Smart people don't need to beat around the bush when they speak.

"I can cure the poison on you, but there is no such thing as a free lunch. You should know what I want." Jia Jue looked at Wei Ruolan.

"I know, thank you." Wei Ruolan still had that gentle expression, but now her eyes were full of gratitude.

"You don't have to thank me, we just take what we need from each other."

"No, although the son-in-law doesn't know the exact time, he should know those people very well. As long as he is on guard, it doesn't matter if I tip off the news. The son-in-law did this just to save me for the sake of my wife. "If he didn't meet this person, he would still be a little uncertain.

But now he was completely sure that what his family and the Feng family planned was no longer a secret.Obviously the other party is waiting for them to make a move so that they can get all the stolen goods.

"Will you tell your father?"

"Persuade him to stop? No, it's useless. I have persuaded him many times." The smile on Wei Ruolan's face remained the same but with a bit of bitterness.

"Then live your own life well. After this turmoil is over, manage your own little family well. Although Sister Yun is not my own sister, I watched her grow up. As an elder brother, I hope you can treat her well."

"Okay, I will." Wei Ruolan nodded in agreement, thought for a while and took out a piece of paper from her sleeve.

"I think many of you are staring at them, so these places may be transparent to you. But it's my vote." Wei Ruolan put the paper on Jia Jue's desk, turned and left.

"It's a pity!" Jia Jue sighed as he watched Wei Ruolan's back disappear.

Take the paper again.

There are several addresses written on it, some are inside the capital, and some are on Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing.

Jia Jue packed up his things and prepared to send them along with the secret package.After all, to give Wei Ruolan a chance, the biggest boss must know his contribution.
