The Immortal Road of the Red Chamber
Chapter 65
frenzied!
Intuit frantic, there wood?
The Jia family never knew what it means to be low-key, let alone buy a lock to lock their mouths.
A group of people were walking on the road, and the common people who had such good deeds looked at the wild crane in the cage with a graceful posture and a small emerald saddle on its back in surprise, and they all pulled the servants of Rongguo Mansion to ask what happened to the crane.
The servant said that Mr. Zhen from the Ning Mansion was disrespectful to our old lady, so we asked him for an explanation.
Well, let's bring a wild crane to ask for an explanation.
You are so talented.
So one word spread to ten, ten to one hundred, and the whole capital looked at Rongguo Mansion with a strange look.
It can spoil your bullshit.
Thinking of the things that happened in the Jia family these years, all the people in the capital directly sent the Jia family to the altar.
Many years ago, a second-ranked non-commissioned officer quit his job, his wife and children were gone, and he cried out to practice Taoism. In the end, his house was repaired except for the stone lion at the door, and he directly built a fairy mansion full of filth.
That year, by chance, I got a girl who was born on the first birthday of the Lunar New Year. She yelled that this girl was unspeakably expensive and extraordinary, and then sent her to the palace to burn incense and worship Buddha.
Eight. Nine years ago, there was another brother who was born with jade. It must be said that such a big piece of jade was brought out of the mother's womb. He didn't choke to death because of his great fortune. I heard that this brother is now The rouge is well tuned.
This year, the head wife got another strange disease that even the Buddha would not spare.Burping while eating, farting while talking, and chanting sutras to the Buddha every day, the room was filled with smoke.
......
Now, even driving the crane to the west has played new tricks, and the cursers have cast a high-level spell... This is really enough for the Jia family.
Mother Jia was so angry that her heart was blocked and panicked. She was really angry, so she invited the imperial doctor to go to the house to check the pulse.
Tanchun went to decoct the medicine himself, and Yingchun stood aside like a wooden man.
They all have a feeling of cold lips and teeth lingering in their hearts.
Mrs. Wang heard that she stayed in the small Buddhist hall happily and recited her scriptures cheerfully. The gold and silver bracelets cut the fragrant cakes into small pieces and stuffed them under the nose, and then stood there dumbly looking at the small Buddhist hall. Misty mist.
Mrs. Xing pressed the handkerchief to her lips, raised the dust from her feet and glanced at Mother Jia who was lying on the bed.
The old lady's eyes were wide open, and she was trying her best to look at the delicately embroidered bed curtain on the top of the bed. Madam Xing rubbed her own eyelids uncomfortably with that look.
It took a lot of sins to get such retribution.
Thinking of the live broadcast of Lixiangyuan heard today, Mrs. Xing cursed "serve it" in her heart.
The fourth girl's temperament is not very pleasing, her words are choking, and she is as willful as that girl of the Lin family.But how old is Si Yatou this year, no matter how big her father is, you shouldn't get angry at a child of how old you are.
Now it's all right, let people take off the face.
Hmph, only that girl from the Lin family can cure you.
Because this incident happened relatively early, Madam Xing hadn't had enough to eat in Ningguo Mansion, and now the son saw the old lady lying on the bed and getting sleepy, and Jia She couldn't come back for a while, so Madam Xing directly found a changing The reason is to go back to the East Courtyard for a short break for dinner.
He sent a girl to watch on the door, and immediately reported when the men came back.
However, as soon as Mrs. Xing returned to the East Courtyard, she heard from Wang Shanbao's family that the whole capital knew that the old lady hated Mr. Zhen and ordered Mr. Zhen to go west on the day of her birthday.
Huh?
Good guy, beat me up.
Mrs. Xing immediately patted her thigh with the handkerchief and threw herself back and forth laughing, feeling that the play was getting better and better.
"Go and find out, what's the festival between Uncle Jing and the old lady?" After a pause, Mrs. Xing thought that Jia Jing stayed in the Taoist temple outside the city all the year round, and even if he had a festival with the old lady, it should be something old.However, if it is really an old thing, how can it happen now. "Is there any major event in the mansion recently that I don't know about?"
Wang Shan's family is not sure what to do. Hearing Mrs. Xing's question, she definitely shook her head at Mrs. Xing, "Except for the second wife and the old lady getting strange diseases one after another, there is nothing else. Oops," no Knowing what Wang Shanbao's family remembered, he suddenly turned pale with shock and covered his mouth.
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Xing was a little impatient since she opened her mouth to speak at Wang Shanbao's house, but this "Ouch" made Mrs. Xing interested.
"Grandma Xiaorong in that house is ill." Wang Shanbao took two steps forward with a mysterious face, and said in a more mysterious tone, "Madam still remembers what Grandma Zhen said before noon."
"What are you talking about?" Madam Xing frowned, and while thinking about it, she asked Wang Shanbao's family, "I vaguely remember You Shi saying that Qin Shi's illness was strange, but this?"
"That's right, that's right. This is the one. When Grandma Zhen was talking, the old slave was waiting in front of her. The old slave remembered that Grandma Zhen said that she came to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with the old lady last month, but from the [-]th to the [-]th , but just five days, people are getting lazier every day... Do you think Fei has been poisoned?"
hiss!
Mrs. Xing was startled, her heart was beating wildly.
"Why, how could it be?" It doesn't make sense to do so. Everyone knows what the identity of the Qin family is. The murder of the royal family's blood is probably not because the old birthday star hanged himself, and his life is too long?
"The old slave heard from the eunuch Xia who was asking for money in the mansion, that he is seriously ill now."
"Then what does this have to do with the Qin family?" Mrs. Xing is not stupid, but she really can't understand the necessary connection between them.
"Couldn't Madam have heard some inappropriate news about Grandma Xiao Rong?" After speaking, she leaned into Xing's ear and whispered a name.
Hearing this name, Mrs. Xing's eyes flickered, but she was still disgusted, and she said in the same low voice, "Our master will never do such a thing again."
Wang Shanbao's family stood aside and nodded, with a look of pride on his face, but he sneered in his heart, then you can exchange the rouge tiger of Grandma Xiao Rong and Grandma Lian Er. Will it.
Mrs. Xing leaned back, took a small sip from her teacup, and said after a while, "If Brother Zhen hadn't been the patriarch and Rong'er the heir, I think the old lady wouldn't have done such a murderous thing. It's just a pity Qin's child."
After all, it is the royal blood. If a son and a half are born, the next generation of the Jia family will have royal blood in their blood.
"Ma'am, the medicine in the old lady's hand is so overbearing. Grandma Xiaorong is poisoned. Many doctors and famous husbands in the capital can't tell. If so, if so..." Wang Shan's family looked at the old lady worriedly. The happy wife is worried that the old lady will poison her if she is cruel.
Mrs. Xing gasped, feeling panicked.
However, it was the servants standing in other rooms in the yard who were more panicked than Mrs. Xing.
Some were sent by Jia Zhen, and some were sent by You Shi...
What is going on today, Ningguo Mansion is still in a state of confusion.
Jia Rong had knelt in the Pear Fragrance Court before, and then Jia Amnesty and others went back, and pressed Jia Rong and the wild crane together to the Taoist temple outside the city.
Both Jia Zhen and You Shi wanted to know how things happened, whether there was any misunderstanding, and what attitude the old lady had now... So while sending Jia Qiang to the Taoist temple, they sent someone to Mrs. Xing Give some gifts, and want to know something from her mouth.
Who made such a short effort, the various versions have made it impossible to distinguish the true from the false.
It's not that you can't find others, but the masters of the Rongguo Mansion are very good at avoiding disasters, and almost all of them are waiting in Lixiangyuan at this moment.Only Mrs. Xing came out to 'change clothes', and she was the most 'kind'.
Bah, kind ass, this is a master who as long as you are generous, she will be generous too.
You have the money in place, everything is easy to talk about.
To be honest, although Ningguo Mansion is the long house, in recent years, it has been watching Rongguo Mansion with winks and actions.
First of all, the old lady relies on the old to sell the old, using seniority and filial piety to oppress others.In addition, as soon as Jia Jing went to practice Taoism, all the masters in the family were of the same generation as Baoyu and Sister Feng, and the younger ones, like Jia Rong and Jia Qiang, were of the same generation as Jia Lan.
In the era when filial piety is used to rule the world, they are of the same clan, and they are also close relatives who have not yet left the fifth service. There is no reason for the Rongguo Mansion to act on the foot of the Ningguo Mansion.
Another one, from the point of view of titles, Jia Zhen is currently holding the title of a third-class general, while Jia She is a first-class general. Although Jia Zheng is not a high-ranking official, he holds most of the connections in the Rongguo Mansion.
Finally look at the in-laws.Jia Jing's wife died, Jia Zhen's first wife died, and his stepmother was a so-called shabby household with a weak natal family. Only Jia Rong married a good wife, but unfortunately, her identity is something that can only be understood but cannot be explained in words.
As for the Rongguo Mansion, the old lady is still alive, so the historians of both disciplines have to recognize her as an aunt.Although the great master Jia She died of his first wife and got a step-mother of the same background, but the second wife and the eldest wife's daughter-in-law are from the royal family of King Xue of Jia Shi.And Grandma Zhu's father in the second room was also a civil servant who offered sacrifices to the Imperial Academy and had peaches and plums all over the world.
The last thing I want to mention is the married aunt Jia Min. Judging from the custom of marrying a daughter from a high family and marrying a woman from a low family, the family background of the Lin family must not be inferior to that of the Jia family, or even worse.In addition to family background, there is Lin Ruhai, the son-in-law.He was born in the imperial examination, and his classmates are all over the government and the public...
In short, comparing left to right, Rongguo Mansion beat Ningguo Mansion completely.In addition, the old lady can pretend to be kind, Jia Zheng can pretend to be serious, and Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian have common topics with them. If they come and go, they will gradually lose their status as the long house and become vassals of the Rongguo Mansion.
Unexpectedly, the old lady was so cruel and merciless that she poisoned and murdered the clan wife of Ningguo Mansion and the illegitimate daughter of the royal family.
Half of the people in Mrs. Xing's yard went to watch the excitement, and the other half were sent out by Mrs. Xing to watch. After going back and forth, there was no one else in the yard.
Then the person sent by Ningguo Mansion to give gifts happened to hear such specious remarks.
Scared to death, okay?
So Jia Zhen and Youshi's people looked at each other, and they stopped giving gifts, and ran wildly.
The greatest fear in the world is speculation, I guess, I wonder.Often after much deliberation, bigger accidents can come out.
Mrs. Xing's master and servant sat on the kang and speculated about a huge conspiracy, and then the old lady took a lot of blame, and let Ningguo Mansion find out the reason why Jia Jing and Rongguo Mansion were so decisive.
It's too much deception, let me tell you.
You Shi was shocked when he heard the news.What happened to Qin Keqing, Youshi was seventy percent sure.
Although she knew that Qin Keqing was not such a frivolous person, in the end... to suppress the rising anger, You Shi had to sigh in her heart that her fate was bad and she was not rigid.
It's all about Youshi, but Jia Zhen's eyes are wide open, and she is furious.
He just said, how can a good person become unexplainably ill.No matter how many doctors I invited and how many medicines I took, there was no improvement. It turned out that I was harmed by someone.
"...What kind of medicine is so powerful that even so many doctors can't find it out." You Shi would not say bluntly that Qin Keqing had a heart disease, so he asked Jia Zhen as if he couldn't understand it when he looked at Jia Zhen's angry face .
"What do you know? At the beginning, the ancestors of the historians rebelled with Taizu together with our ancestors, and they were also the first generals to break into the capital. All the treasures of the former imperial palace were..." Jia Zhen paused, He didn't continue to talk about this topic, but turned back directly, "There are many secret medicines in the former imperial palace, maybe which one it is."
Youshi nodded, "Then today's matter, what does the master mean?"
"Father probably already knew the news, otherwise he wouldn't have treated the old woman like this. Since it's father's intention, then we have to show an attitude."
What's the point of breaking up the relationship if you hurt the person on your master's heart? Let's settle this account slowly.
"Since the uncle said so, then the concubine knows what to do." It happened that she was too lazy to entertain those uncles and ancestors in Rongguo Mansion.
She is a daughter-in-law of the same generation as Sister Feng, she is still the clan's wife, and she wears imperial orders, but what does Sister Feng have, she doesn't say what she wants every day, and she always deliberately raises Qin Shi and steps on her.
Then there are the eldest wife, the second wife and the old lady's condescending attitude... Bah, your grandma Zhen will not serve you anymore.
"By the way, I'm afraid the uncle doesn't know yet, but my younger sister was taken away by the cousin of the Lin family."
If the two prefectures hadn't fought against each other, Youshi would have a fourth sister according to the prefecture's ranking when talking about Xichun.But now that they have turned against each other, they can only be called sisters.
When Jia Zhen heard this, she lifted her foot to see Qin Keqing just now, and then fell down again.Not to mention, if Youshi hadn't mentioned it, Jia Zhen would have really forgotten that he still has such a younger sister.
"What did you say?" He followed the Lin family away in a good manner.
Hearing Jia Zhen's question, Youshi directly told the old lady she had paid a lot of money to point at Xichun and scold her.
"Miss Lin is very warm-hearted. As soon as the old lady kicked her out, she stood up and took her younger sister away. When she said that she was leaving, the old lady didn't ask to take away their stitches and threads. My younger sister didn't bring anything. Miss Lin's old clothes are gone."
When Jia Zhen heard this, she was furious again.
He wasn't angry that Xichun was treated badly, but felt that the old lady had trampled the face of Ningguo Mansion directly under her feet.
After scolding angrily, Jia Zhen asked Youshi to send someone to Lin's house to see Xichun.If Xichun is willing, he will bring him back.
What can you say, a stepson as old as Jia Rong can accommodate him, but how can he not accommodate a little girl like Xichun.
She was raised in Rongguo Mansion before, so she was at ease.Now it's just a matter of extra chopsticks and bowls to bring her home, and she won't be tired.
"I'll send someone there right now."
......
What is Jia Jing doing at this time?
Jia Jing has just been tricked by Zhu Zhu, a goblin.
Ghosts can entrust dreams to the living, so can goblins.
When Daiyu and his party came towards the Taoist temple, Zhu Zhu had already made his move.
She asked Jia Jing what he thought of Xichun in the way of dreaming, whether he really didn't care about it or had some scruples so he couldn't care about her.
What do you think and think about this girl?
Unexpectedly, when this father was asked by Zhu Zhu, he was stunned for a while before realizing that he had a daughter who was fostered in Rongguo Mansion since childhood.
This is not to blame for Jia Jing, after all, for a man, having a baby is like a night of heroism, full of pride and joy.But for women, it is a piece of meat that is conceived in October and accompanied day and night.
It is said that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. If you look at all the men in the Jia family who are rolling in the world of mortals, you can know how Jia Jing is a man and a father.
Of course, it is also possible to narrow the scope and only look at Jia Zhen. Jia Rong is a person, and she can think of one or two.
The men of the Jia family treat their children either indifferently, or open their mouths and curse, lift their hands, kick them with their feet, or directly tell their servants to spit on their faces...
Regardless of Xichun, it may be Xichun's blessing.
Jia Jing has become a monk, and has lived in Taoist temples for many years. He has forgotten all about his family business and children and grandchildren. How can he care about a daughter who has almost never been expected.
No expectations, no getting along, let alone any feelings.
When asked at this time, Jia Jing still had to think for a long time.Zhu Zhu felt a little sympathetic to that little human bastard Xichun.
They don't have such fetish.
They are very kind to their cubs, they are the kind of monsters who would rather eat a man than feed their cubs.
It's like she and Tang Lang are both fairies of this type.
Even though Zhu Zhu has been in the world for a long time, what he wants to do is to choose a fat, tender and juicy partner in the future...
Zhu Zhu saw Jia Jing's mind and attitude, so he asked him again how he wanted to arrange Xichun.
Jia Jing expressed happily that there was an old lady, and at worst her brother and her nephew.
When Zhu Zhu heard this, she gritted her teeth, rolled her eyes, and directly referred to Xichun as Jia Jing's unfinished fate on the road to immortality.
This father-daughter relationship has been wiped out, and it is impossible to make any progress after cultivating immortality.If you can break it clean, you can get a copy of the Taoism Sutra when you dream again.
......
After fooling Jia Jing into abandoning Xichun, Zhu Zhu kicked Jia Jing out of his dream.
When Jia Jing was still thinking about the dream just now, Daiyu's carriage just arrived outside the gate of the Taoist temple.
Following Daiyu's order, Zhu Zhu directly entered the Taoist temple.
Since she already knew what Jia Jing meant, Zhu Zhu didn't waste any time talking with him, but only said that the Lin family's heirs were weak, the old lady was getting old, and her upbringing was also beyond her capabilities.Ask Jia Jing if he would like to adopt Xichun to the Lin family, and write a contract to sever the relationship between father and daughter.
Zhu Zhu's arrival, in Jia Jing's view, was like a pillow sent when he was dozing off.That dream seemed to be born just for this moment.
There is no need to think about anything, Jia Jing immediately didn't pay attention to this or that, after writing the contract directly, he just told them to do things cheaply and don't bother him in the future.
As for whether to see Xichun again or ask Xichun what she meant, it was not within Jia Jing's consideration.
Since she is my daughter, she should be considerate of me, and she must obey my arrangements.If you are not my daughter in the future, why bother to see you again.
Such a straightforward remark made Zhu Zhu laugh ferociously, took a deep breath, and finally left with Jia Jing's letter of deed.
It's really incomparable with that cheap father of Cao.
When Zhu Zhu turned to leave, Jia Jing, in order not to be disturbed by others, directly told the Taoist boy that he was going to retreat, and then went into the secret room to receive the Taoism scriptures.
Zhu Zhu promised Jia Jing, so naturally she would not refuse to give it to her.And the so-called Taoism Sutra she gave to Jia Jing is not fake either.
That is, the scriptures are relatively old, and the whole text is full of pictures and symbols that cannot be written...
Even guessing, I'm afraid it will drive me crazy.
hee hee~
When Jia Jing entered the secret room, the crusade team composed of the old lady's children and grandchildren had not yet left the city.
When Zhu Zhu came out of the Taoist temple, he hid a small gold-painted box in his sleeve.
After getting into the carriage, Zhu Zhu first handed over the deed written by Jia Jing to Daiyu.After Daiyu read the deed, she passed the deed to Xichun.
Although Xichun had expected this to happen a long time ago, when she saw the deed, she bit her lip and cried.
She was like a burden, kicking back and forth.
If you hated her at the beginning, why did you give birth to her, and why did you abandon her after you gave birth to her.
The more Xichun thought about it, the more sad she felt, and finally lay down in Daiyu's arms and cried so hard that she couldn't help herself.
Living to this age, she will always seem like a superfluous.
Xichun cried very sadly, Daiyu touched her nose, feeling that she had committed a great crime.
However, as a fairy who came down from Jiaolong Mountain, Daiyu's guilt is fleeting.
The king said, we fairies don't need those human emotions.
Looking at the small box that Zhu Zhu handed over, Daiyu thought guiltyly, she is a goblin, as long as her skin is thick enough~
(→_→)
Lin Daiyu's carriage was heading towards Tongzhou, Tang Lang had just returned to the mansion at the entrance of the Taoist temple at Daiyu's request.
Picking someone up and going back in a hurry, you have to give Jia Min and Lin Ruhai a reaction time.
So Tang Lang returned home early.
When Tang Lang entered the mansion, Lin Ruhai was still working in the front yamen, and only Jia Min and Brother Fan were there to entertain and entertain in the backyard.
As soon as the girl said Tang Lang was back, Jia Min frowned.
Did that damn girl cause trouble again?
Calling someone in, seeing that Tang Lang invited Ann, he glanced left and right, and then stood there with lowered eyebrows in silence.
Seeing her like this, what else did Jia Min not know.While using the remaining etiquette rules to control myself not to roll my eyes, I sent everyone out.
After Jia Min and Tang Lang were the only ones left in the room, Tang Lang told Jia Min everything that happened in the Lixiangyuan in Rongguo Mansion today without reservation.
Of course, some modifications have been made selectively.
When Jia Jing got a wild crane and cursed at his mother, Jia Min felt extremely uncomfortable even if he complained to Jia Mu.When Jia Mu heard that Xichun was used as a raft, Jia Min's eyebrows became tighter and tighter.
Jia Min has some understanding of these three nieces.
Jia Yingchun is cowardly by nature and not good at words.Tanchun has a strong personality and is articulate, while Xichun is the youngest, outspoken and innocent.
Among the three nieces, this Xichun is the one who is the most distant from her blood, but the one who has the most affinity with her.The reason for this is nothing more than that this child is the closest in temperament to the devil king he gave birth to.
It's just that my family is more daring and less wronged because of her father's excessive doting.
If Xichun's child was born in a family like theirs, he might be compared with Daiyu, and he would not give in.
Thinking of this, Jia Min shivered.
If we really want to adopt Xichun according to my daughter's will, then there must be two devil kings in the family.
Can you still live like this?
╯ (╯ ▽ ╰) ╭
"...Master Jing really gave a contract to sever the relationship?" Jia Min rubbed his aching forehead, a little bit disbelieving that Jia Jing would be so beneficial.
Fairies have their own contact methods, so Tang Lang nodded to Jia Min affirmatively at this time, yes, that's right.
"That's all," Jia Min shook his head and smiled wryly, before yelling out the door, "Come on, please come back, master."
Tang Lang saw this, a smile flashed across his eyes.
Eldest brother Mo Xiao and second brother, you blame Lin Ruhai for doting on children every day, what are you doing here?
Jia Min seemed to feel Tang Lang's slander, cleared his throat, and said uncomfortably, "The fourth girl is also poor. She lost her mother since she was a child, and her father is a fool. Our family is small, and your girl yells every day. Feeling bored, the fourth girl is here, and she is here to accompany her, just to tell her to calm down. There is no one next to our house, a few rooms, and a few taels of silver are still available." Left but the cost of a dowry in the future, and What can it be worth.
What's more, even if Jia Min didn't say what's going on in Ningguo Mansion, he would feel bad enough. Rongguo Mansion can't live anymore. It's just a little girl. Taking her in is considered a good deed.
Moreover, this child is her natal niece, so she couldn't bear to just sit back and ignore her.
In the end, her restless and unfocused daughter brought him back, so how could she send him back?
Wouldn't that have slapped her daughter in the face?
This will not work.
"... Ma'am said so." If saying that makes you happy, so be it.
When Lin Ruhai came when she was young, Jia Min naturally couldn't tell the truth like Tang Lang told her, but only pick and choose.
"Since it's Yu'er's intention, let's stay and be Yu'er's companion." Lin Ruhai stroked his beard and said in a tone of indifference.
Lin Ruhai didn't fully believe Jia Min's words, and planned to send someone back to the capital to inquire again.
The author has something to say: This chapter is two in one.
Intuit frantic, there wood?
The Jia family never knew what it means to be low-key, let alone buy a lock to lock their mouths.
A group of people were walking on the road, and the common people who had such good deeds looked at the wild crane in the cage with a graceful posture and a small emerald saddle on its back in surprise, and they all pulled the servants of Rongguo Mansion to ask what happened to the crane.
The servant said that Mr. Zhen from the Ning Mansion was disrespectful to our old lady, so we asked him for an explanation.
Well, let's bring a wild crane to ask for an explanation.
You are so talented.
So one word spread to ten, ten to one hundred, and the whole capital looked at Rongguo Mansion with a strange look.

......
Now, even driving the crane to the west has played new tricks, and the cursers have cast a high-level spell... This is really enough for the Jia family.
Mother Jia was so angry that her heart was blocked and panicked. She was really angry, so she invited the imperial doctor to go to the house to check the pulse.
Tanchun went to decoct the medicine himself, and Yingchun stood aside like a wooden man.
They all have a feeling of cold lips and teeth lingering in their hearts.
Mrs. Wang heard that she stayed in the small Buddhist hall happily and recited her scriptures cheerfully. The gold and silver bracelets cut the fragrant cakes into small pieces and stuffed them under the nose, and then stood there dumbly looking at the small Buddhist hall. Misty mist.
Mrs. Xing pressed the handkerchief to her lips, raised the dust from her feet and glanced at Mother Jia who was lying on the bed.
The old lady's eyes were wide open, and she was trying her best to look at the delicately embroidered bed curtain on the top of the bed. Madam Xing rubbed her own eyelids uncomfortably with that look.
It took a lot of sins to get such retribution.
Thinking of the live broadcast of Lixiangyuan heard today, Mrs. Xing cursed "serve it" in her heart.
The fourth girl's temperament is not very pleasing, her words are choking, and she is as willful as that girl of the Lin family.But how old is Si Yatou this year, no matter how big her father is, you shouldn't get angry at a child of how old you are.

Huh?
Good guy, beat me up.
Mrs. Xing immediately patted her thigh with the handkerchief and threw herself back and forth laughing, feeling that the play was getting better and better.
"Go and find out, what's the festival between Uncle Jing and the old lady?" After a pause, Mrs. Xing thought that Jia Jing stayed in the Taoist temple outside the city all the year round, and even if he had a festival with the old lady, it should be something old.However, if it is really an old thing, how can it happen now. "Is there any major event in the mansion recently that I don't know about?"
Wang Shan's family is not sure what to do. Hearing Mrs. Xing's question, she definitely shook her head at Mrs. Xing, "Except for the second wife and the old lady getting strange diseases one after another, there is nothing else.

The old slave remembered that Grandma Zhen said that she came to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with the old lady last month, but from the [-]th to the [-]th , but just five days, people are getting lazier every day... Do you think Fei has been poisoned?"
hiss!
Mrs. Xing was startled, her heart was beating wildly.
"Why, how could it be?" It doesn't make sense to do so. Everyone knows what the identity of the Qin family is. The murder of the royal family's blood is probably not because the old birthday star hanged himself, and his life is too long?
"The old slave heard from the eunuch Xia who was asking for money in the mansion, that he is seriously ill now."
"Then what does this have to do with the Qin family?" Mrs. Xing is not stupid, but she really can't understand the necessary connection between them.
"Couldn't Madam have heard some inappropriate news about Grandma Xiao Rong?" After speaking, she leaned into Xing's ear and whispered a name.
Hearing this name, Mrs. Xing's eyes flickered, but she was still disgusted, and she said in the same low voice, "Our master will never do such a thing again."
Wang Shanbao's family stood aside and nodded, with a look of pride on his face, but he sneered in his heart, then you can exchange the rouge tiger of Grandma Xiao Rong and Grandma Lian Er. Will it.
Mrs. Xing leaned back, took a small sip from her teacup, and said after a while, "If Brother Zhen hadn't been the patriarch and Rong'er the heir, I think the old lady wouldn't have done such a murderous thing. It's just a pity Qin's child."
After all, it is the royal blood. If a son and a half are born, the next generation of the Jia family will have royal blood in their blood.
"Ma'am, the medicine in the old lady's hand is so overbearing. Grandma Xiaorong is poisoned. Many doctors and famous husbands in the capital can't tell. If so, if so..." Wang Shan's family looked at the old lady worriedly. The happy wife is worried that the old lady will poison her if she is cruel.
Mrs. Xing gasped, feeling panicked.
However, it was the servants standing in other rooms in the yard who were more panicked than Mrs. Xing.
Some were sent by Jia Zhen, and some were sent by You Shi...
What is going on today, Ningguo Mansion is still in a state of confusion.
Jia Rong had knelt in the Pear Fragrance Court before, and then Jia Amnesty and others went back, and pressed Jia Rong and the wild crane together to the Taoist temple outside the city.
Both Jia Zhen and You Shi wanted to know how things happened, whether there was any misunderstanding, and what attitude the old lady had now... So while sending Jia Qiang to the Taoist temple, they sent someone to Mrs. Xing Give some gifts, and want to know something from her mouth.
Who made such a short effort, the various versions have made it impossible to distinguish the true from the false.
It's not that you can't find others, but the masters of the Rongguo Mansion are very good at avoiding disasters, and almost all of them are waiting in Lixiangyuan at this moment.Only Mrs. Xing came out to 'change clothes', and she was the most 'kind'.
Bah, kind ass, this is a master who as long as you are generous, she will be generous too.
You have the money in place, everything is easy to talk about.
To be honest, although Ningguo Mansion is the long house, in recent years, it has been watching Rongguo Mansion with winks and actions.
First of all, the old lady relies on the old to sell the old, using seniority and filial piety to oppress others.In addition, as soon as Jia Jing went to practice Taoism, all the masters in the family were of the same generation as Baoyu and Sister Feng, and the younger ones, like Jia Rong and Jia Qiang, were of the same generation as Jia Lan.
In the era when filial piety is used to rule the world, they are of the same clan, and they are also close relatives who have not yet left the fifth service. There is no reason for the Rongguo Mansion to act on the foot of the Ningguo Mansion.
Another one, from the point of view of titles, Jia Zhen is currently holding the title of a third-class general, while Jia She is a first-class general. Although Jia Zheng is not a high-ranking official, he holds most of the connections in the Rongguo Mansion.
Finally look at the in-laws.Jia Jing's wife died, Jia Zhen's first wife died, and his stepmother was a so-called shabby household with a weak natal family. Only Jia Rong married a good wife, but unfortunately, her identity is something that can only be understood but cannot be explained in words.
As for the Rongguo Mansion, the old lady is still alive, so the historians of both disciplines have to recognize her as an aunt.Although the great master Jia She died of his first wife and got a step-mother of the same background, but the second wife and the eldest wife's daughter-in-law are from the royal family of King Xue of Jia Shi.And Grandma Zhu's father in the second room was also a civil servant who offered sacrifices to the Imperial Academy and had peaches and plums all over the world.
The last thing I want to mention is the married aunt Jia Min. Judging from the custom of marrying a daughter from a high family and marrying a woman from a low family, the family background of the Lin family must not be inferior to that of the Jia family, or even worse.In addition to family background, there is Lin Ruhai, the son-in-law.He was born in the imperial examination, and his classmates are all over the government and the public...
In short, comparing left to right, Rongguo Mansion beat Ningguo Mansion completely.In addition, the old lady can pretend to be kind, Jia Zheng can pretend to be serious, and Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian have common topics with them. If they come and go, they will gradually lose their status as the long house and become vassals of the Rongguo Mansion.
Unexpectedly, the old lady was so cruel and merciless that she poisoned and murdered the clan wife of Ningguo Mansion and the illegitimate daughter of the royal family.
Half of the people in Mrs. Xing's yard went to watch the excitement, and the other half were sent out by Mrs. Xing to watch. After going back and forth, there was no one else in the yard.
Then the person sent by Ningguo Mansion to give gifts happened to hear such specious remarks.
Scared to death, okay?
So Jia Zhen and Youshi's people looked at each other, and they stopped giving gifts, and ran wildly.
The greatest fear in the world is speculation, I guess, I wonder.Often after much deliberation, bigger accidents can come out.
Mrs. Xing's master and servant sat on the kang and speculated about a huge conspiracy, and then the old lady took a lot of blame, and let Ningguo Mansion find out the reason why Jia Jing and Rongguo Mansion were so decisive.
It's too much deception, let me tell you.
You Shi was shocked when he heard the news.What happened to Qin Keqing, Youshi was seventy percent sure.
Although she knew that Qin Keqing was not such a frivolous person, in the end... to suppress the rising anger, You Shi had to sigh in her heart that her fate was bad and she was not rigid.
It's all about Youshi, but Jia Zhen's eyes are wide open, and she is furious.
He just said, how can a good person become unexplainably ill.No matter how many doctors I invited and how many medicines I took, there was no improvement. It turned out that I was harmed by someone.
"...What kind of medicine is so powerful that even so many doctors can't find it out." You Shi would not say bluntly that Qin Keqing had a heart disease, so he asked Jia Zhen as if he couldn't understand it when he looked at Jia Zhen's angry face .
"What do you know? At the beginning, the ancestors of the historians rebelled with Taizu together with our ancestors, and they were also the first generals to break into the capital. All the treasures of the former imperial palace were..." Jia Zhen paused, He didn't continue to talk about this topic, but turned back directly, "There are many secret medicines in the former imperial palace, maybe which one it is."
Youshi nodded, "Then today's matter, what does the master mean?"
"Father probably already knew the news, otherwise he wouldn't have treated the old woman like this. Since it's father's intention, then we have to show an attitude."
What's the point of breaking up the relationship if you hurt the person on your master's heart? Let's settle this account slowly.
"Since the uncle said so, then the concubine knows what to do." It happened that she was too lazy to entertain those uncles and ancestors in Rongguo Mansion.
She is a daughter-in-law of the same generation as Sister Feng, she is still the clan's wife, and she wears imperial orders, but what does Sister Feng have, she doesn't say what she wants every day, and she always deliberately raises Qin Shi and steps on her.
Then there are the eldest wife, the second wife and the old lady's condescending attitude... Bah, your grandma Zhen will not serve you anymore.
"By the way, I'm afraid the uncle doesn't know yet, but my younger sister was taken away by the cousin of the Lin family."
If the two prefectures hadn't fought against each other, Youshi would have a fourth sister according to the prefecture's ranking when talking about Xichun.But now that they have turned against each other, they can only be called sisters.
When Jia Zhen heard this, she lifted her foot to see Qin Keqing just now, and then fell down again.Not to mention, if Youshi hadn't mentioned it, Jia Zhen would have really forgotten that he still has such a younger sister.
"What did you say?" He followed the Lin family away in a good manner.
Hearing Jia Zhen's question, Youshi directly told the old lady she had paid a lot of money to point at Xichun and scold her.
"Miss Lin is very warm-hearted. As soon as the old lady kicked her out, she stood up and took her younger sister away. When she said that she was leaving, the old lady didn't ask to take away their stitches and threads. My younger sister didn't bring anything. Miss Lin's old clothes are gone."
When Jia Zhen heard this, she was furious again.
He wasn't angry that Xichun was treated badly, but felt that the old lady had trampled the face of Ningguo Mansion directly under her feet.
After scolding angrily, Jia Zhen asked Youshi to send someone to Lin's house to see Xichun.If Xichun is willing, he will bring him back.
What can you say, a stepson as old as Jia Rong can accommodate him, but how can he not accommodate a little girl like Xichun.
She was raised in Rongguo Mansion before, so she was at ease.Now it's just a matter of extra chopsticks and bowls to bring her home, and she won't be tired.
"I'll send someone there right now."
......
What is Jia Jing doing at this time?
Jia Jing has just been tricked by Zhu Zhu, a goblin.
Ghosts can entrust dreams to the living, so can goblins.
When Daiyu and his party came towards the Taoist temple, Zhu Zhu had already made his move.
She asked Jia Jing what he thought of Xichun in the way of dreaming, whether he really didn't care about it or had some scruples so he couldn't care about her.
What do you think and think about this girl?
Unexpectedly, when this father was asked by Zhu Zhu, he was stunned for a while before realizing that he had a daughter who was fostered in Rongguo Mansion since childhood.
This is not to blame for Jia Jing, after all, for a man, having a baby is like a night of heroism, full of pride and joy.But for women, it is a piece of meat that is conceived in October and accompanied day and night.
It is said that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. If you look at all the men in the Jia family who are rolling in the world of mortals, you can know how Jia Jing is a man and a father.
Of course, it is also possible to narrow the scope and only look at Jia Zhen. Jia Rong is a person, and she can think of one or two.
The men of the Jia family treat their children either indifferently, or open their mouths and curse, lift their hands, kick them with their feet, or directly tell their servants to spit on their faces...
Regardless of Xichun, it may be Xichun's blessing.
Jia Jing has become a monk, and has lived in Taoist temples for many years. He has forgotten all about his family business and children and grandchildren. How can he care about a daughter who has almost never been expected.
No expectations, no getting along, let alone any feelings.
When asked at this time, Jia Jing still had to think for a long time.Zhu Zhu felt a little sympathetic to that little human bastard Xichun.
They don't have such fetish.
They are very kind to their cubs, they are the kind of monsters who would rather eat a man than feed their cubs.
It's like she and Tang Lang are both fairies of this type.
Even though Zhu Zhu has been in the world for a long time, what he wants to do is to choose a fat, tender and juicy partner in the future...
Zhu Zhu saw Jia Jing's mind and attitude, so he asked him again how he wanted to arrange Xichun.
Jia Jing expressed happily that there was an old lady, and at worst her brother and her nephew.
When Zhu Zhu heard this, she gritted her teeth, rolled her eyes, and directly referred to Xichun as Jia Jing's unfinished fate on the road to immortality.
This father-daughter relationship has been wiped out, and it is impossible to make any progress after cultivating immortality.If you can break it clean, you can get a copy of the Taoism Sutra when you dream again.
......
After fooling Jia Jing into abandoning Xichun, Zhu Zhu kicked Jia Jing out of his dream.
When Jia Jing was still thinking about the dream just now, Daiyu's carriage just arrived outside the gate of the Taoist temple.
Following Daiyu's order, Zhu Zhu directly entered the Taoist temple.
Since she already knew what Jia Jing meant, Zhu Zhu didn't waste any time talking with him, but only said that the Lin family's heirs were weak, the old lady was getting old, and her upbringing was also beyond her capabilities.Ask Jia Jing if he would like to adopt Xichun to the Lin family, and write a contract to sever the relationship between father and daughter.
Zhu Zhu's arrival, in Jia Jing's view, was like a pillow sent when he was dozing off.That dream seemed to be born just for this moment.
There is no need to think about anything, Jia Jing immediately didn't pay attention to this or that, after writing the contract directly, he just told them to do things cheaply and don't bother him in the future.
As for whether to see Xichun again or ask Xichun what she meant, it was not within Jia Jing's consideration.
Since she is my daughter, she should be considerate of me, and she must obey my arrangements.If you are not my daughter in the future, why bother to see you again.
Such a straightforward remark made Zhu Zhu laugh ferociously, took a deep breath, and finally left with Jia Jing's letter of deed.
It's really incomparable with that cheap father of Cao.
When Zhu Zhu turned to leave, Jia Jing, in order not to be disturbed by others, directly told the Taoist boy that he was going to retreat, and then went into the secret room to receive the Taoism scriptures.
Zhu Zhu promised Jia Jing, so naturally she would not refuse to give it to her.And the so-called Taoism Sutra she gave to Jia Jing is not fake either.
That is, the scriptures are relatively old, and the whole text is full of pictures and symbols that cannot be written...
Even guessing, I'm afraid it will drive me crazy.
hee hee~
When Jia Jing entered the secret room, the crusade team composed of the old lady's children and grandchildren had not yet left the city.
When Zhu Zhu came out of the Taoist temple, he hid a small gold-painted box in his sleeve.
After getting into the carriage, Zhu Zhu first handed over the deed written by Jia Jing to Daiyu.After Daiyu read the deed, she passed the deed to Xichun.
Although Xichun had expected this to happen a long time ago, when she saw the deed, she bit her lip and cried.
She was like a burden, kicking back and forth.
If you hated her at the beginning, why did you give birth to her, and why did you abandon her after you gave birth to her.
The more Xichun thought about it, the more sad she felt, and finally lay down in Daiyu's arms and cried so hard that she couldn't help herself.
Living to this age, she will always seem like a superfluous.
Xichun cried very sadly, Daiyu touched her nose, feeling that she had committed a great crime.
However, as a fairy who came down from Jiaolong Mountain, Daiyu's guilt is fleeting.
The king said, we fairies don't need those human emotions.
Looking at the small box that Zhu Zhu handed over, Daiyu thought guiltyly, she is a goblin, as long as her skin is thick enough~
(→_→)
Lin Daiyu's carriage was heading towards Tongzhou, Tang Lang had just returned to the mansion at the entrance of the Taoist temple at Daiyu's request.
Picking someone up and going back in a hurry, you have to give Jia Min and Lin Ruhai a reaction time.
So Tang Lang returned home early.
When Tang Lang entered the mansion, Lin Ruhai was still working in the front yamen, and only Jia Min and Brother Fan were there to entertain and entertain in the backyard.
As soon as the girl said Tang Lang was back, Jia Min frowned.
Did that damn girl cause trouble again?
Calling someone in, seeing that Tang Lang invited Ann, he glanced left and right, and then stood there with lowered eyebrows in silence.
Seeing her like this, what else did Jia Min not know.While using the remaining etiquette rules to control myself not to roll my eyes, I sent everyone out.
After Jia Min and Tang Lang were the only ones left in the room, Tang Lang told Jia Min everything that happened in the Lixiangyuan in Rongguo Mansion today without reservation.
Of course, some modifications have been made selectively.
When Jia Jing got a wild crane and cursed at his mother, Jia Min felt extremely uncomfortable even if he complained to Jia Mu.When Jia Mu heard that Xichun was used as a raft, Jia Min's eyebrows became tighter and tighter.
Jia Min has some understanding of these three nieces.
Jia Yingchun is cowardly by nature and not good at words.Tanchun has a strong personality and is articulate, while Xichun is the youngest, outspoken and innocent.
Among the three nieces, this Xichun is the one who is the most distant from her blood, but the one who has the most affinity with her.The reason for this is nothing more than that this child is the closest in temperament to the devil king he gave birth to.
It's just that my family is more daring and less wronged because of her father's excessive doting.
If Xichun's child was born in a family like theirs, he might be compared with Daiyu, and he would not give in.
Thinking of this, Jia Min shivered.
If we really want to adopt Xichun according to my daughter's will, then there must be two devil kings in the family.
Can you still live like this?
╯ (╯ ▽ ╰) ╭
"...Master Jing really gave a contract to sever the relationship?" Jia Min rubbed his aching forehead, a little bit disbelieving that Jia Jing would be so beneficial.
Fairies have their own contact methods, so Tang Lang nodded to Jia Min affirmatively at this time, yes, that's right.
"That's all," Jia Min shook his head and smiled wryly, before yelling out the door, "Come on, please come back, master."
Tang Lang saw this, a smile flashed across his eyes.
Eldest brother Mo Xiao and second brother, you blame Lin Ruhai for doting on children every day, what are you doing here?
Jia Min seemed to feel Tang Lang's slander, cleared his throat, and said uncomfortably, "The fourth girl is also poor. She lost her mother since she was a child, and her father is a fool. Our family is small, and your girl yells every day. Feeling bored, the fourth girl is here, and she is here to accompany her, just to tell her to calm down. There is no one next to our house, a few rooms, and a few taels of silver are still available." Left but the cost of a dowry in the future, and What can it be worth.
What's more, even if Jia Min didn't say what's going on in Ningguo Mansion, he would feel bad enough. Rongguo Mansion can't live anymore. It's just a little girl. Taking her in is considered a good deed.
Moreover, this child is her natal niece, so she couldn't bear to just sit back and ignore her.
In the end, her restless and unfocused daughter brought him back, so how could she send him back?
Wouldn't that have slapped her daughter in the face?
This will not work.
"... Ma'am said so." If saying that makes you happy, so be it.
When Lin Ruhai came when she was young, Jia Min naturally couldn't tell the truth like Tang Lang told her, but only pick and choose.
"Since it's Yu'er's intention, let's stay and be Yu'er's companion." Lin Ruhai stroked his beard and said in a tone of indifference.
Lin Ruhai didn't fully believe Jia Min's words, and planned to send someone back to the capital to inquire again.
The author has something to say: This chapter is two in one.
