Getaway in the Red House

Chapter 34 Free at last

Just when Mrs. Wang lost her mind and was talking nonsense, Mother Jia got the letter and rushed over with the mandarin duck and Hu Po in disheveled clothes.At the same time, except for Baoyu who comforted the frightened Xiren in Yihong Courtyard, the other sisters in the garden also came to Hanfang Pavilion one after another.

Mother Jia was so annoyed by Mrs. Wang's stupid behavior that she didn't even bother to give her a look when she walked past her.Wang Xifeng saw that Daiyu and Mrs. Wang were confronting each other and could not take care of Jia Mu, so she had to order her mother-in-law to carry a chair in the room and let Jia Mu sit down.

After Jia Mu sat down, she looked at Mrs. Wang who had calmed down and scolded: "As a head of the family and an elder, it is really unreasonable for you to do such a ridiculous thing! Do you really think that no one in this house can rule you?" ? A confused thing covered in lard."

Mrs. Wang was forced by Jia Mu's gloomy gaze, she stood there with her hands down, not daring to move.Mother Jia then turned to Daiyu who was silent, and said with a smile: "Girl Lin, your aunt has been stimulated a few days ago, and her mind has not been very clear. As a junior, you should be more generous and forgive her for her unintentional mistake." When your aunt wakes up tomorrow, grandma will let her accompany you, the whole family should be considerate to each other."

Daiyu smiled coldly, bowed to Mother Jia, and said, "I've let my grandmother down. If my aunt just insulted Daiyu alone, Daiyu would not dare to disobey her. But today, if the Lin family is involved, Daiyu will die. , I don’t dare to tarnish the Lin family’s innocence, so there’s no need for my grandma to persuade me!”

Seeing that Daiyu didn't listen to her persuasion, Jia's mother was unhappy.But she also listened outside the yard for a while, knowing that Daiyu has something to rely on, and she didn't want to push Daiyu too hard, lest Daiyu really go to the Yamen to make a fuss, and Jia's mansion would become the laughing stock of the entire capital. .

So Jia's mother smiled kindly: "It's a child's temper after all, and you can't suffer any more. Well, today, my grandmother will ask you to be the master. What do you want your aunt to do? Let me tell you, if There are some truths, and grandma will help you vent your anger."

"Grandmother, it must be Daiyu's reluctance. She couldn't bear it anymore. Since the day Daiyu was brought into the mansion by her grandmother, the second aunt has been targeting me. Daiyu didn't want to cause any rift between relatives and provoke outsiders. It was a joke, so I kept quietly bearing it. Unexpectedly, my aunt thought that Daiyu was easy to bully, and came to her door again and again. Now it is even more ridiculous, ignoring all the property of my Lin family, and letting people spread rumors in the house, saying that Daiyu has everything. It was provided by the mansion. Today, she even came to search my yard on the grounds of losing something. Isn’t this a blatant insult to my Lin family? In this case, Daiyu has nothing else to ask, but begs my aunt to return it to my Lin family. As for the property, Daiyu will take Mother Wang and the others back to the south, so as not to annoy her aunt by staying here. Of course, Daiyu will not take advantage of the mansion. There's nothing more to do with it!"

"Go ahead and dream about it. Don't say that Mrs. Ben hasn't seen the property of the Lin family. Even if she did, she won't have a penny. If you want to leave Jia's mansion, you can leave, but you don't even think about the things in the mansion. Take them away, those things are surnamed Jia, not Lin!"

When Mrs. Wang heard that she was required to return the Lin family's money, she immediately felt the pain in her heart, and threw it out regardless.

"Shut up for me! Feng girl, drag the second wife aside for me, if you continue to speak nonsense, just shut up that broken mouth for her!"

Wang Xifeng was thinking anxiously at this time, lest the Lin family's affairs would involve Jia Lian.Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard Jia Mu's order, so he quickly sent his mother-in-law to help Zhou Rui's family pull Mrs. Wang aside.Thinking that it was all caused by Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng made a note of Mrs. Wang in her heart.

Mother Jia closed her eyes, calmed down, and continued to persuade: "Girl Lin, your aunt did something wrong with the matter of the Lin family's property. But she is only embezzling it temporarily for the sake of your mother's consolation. I was thinking of waiting for you to leave the court in the future." When it is time to return it to you, who would have thought that your aunt's clumsy explanation could cause such a big misunderstanding. For your grandmother's sake, forgive her for this.

Besides, how do you live as an orphan when you go back to the south?Wouldn't it be a disadvantage if you don't have relatives to take care of you?To put it bluntly, in a few years you will be an adult, how will you be without elders to judge you?Do you have to be alone for the rest of your life?If that's the case, how will you let your grandmother face your dead parents in the future, so Lin girl, you have to think about it! "

Daiyu heard Jiamu's seemingly sincere words, and couldn't help admiring her sophistication.First, Mrs. Wang's embezzlement of Mo Lin's family property was changed to temporary misappropriation to reduce the guilt invisibly.Then he used his empress to put pressure on him so that he would be afraid.After that, she secretly threatened that she had no relatives to support her, and her marriage was in her hands.In order to make herself surrender, Mother Jia really did everything she could. "Grandmother don't need to persuade her any more. Look at how Auntie treats Daiyu today, and look at the scars on Nanny Wang's head. Do you think it is possible for Daiyu to live in the mansion? For Daiyu, relatives like her aunt are not worth it! As for Daiyu’s future, grandmother does not need to worry, Daiyu is fortunate to have the holy will of today , allowing me to have an independent marriage, so grandma can rest assured."

"What are you talking about! Marriage is independent? It's impossible!" Rao, who is as deep as Jia's mother, couldn't help crying out at this time.As for the crowd watching in the yard, they looked at each other in disbelief.

While ordering Zijuan and Xueyan to pack their things and prepare to leave Jia's mansion, Daiyu took out a piece of yellow silk from her sleeve and handed it to Jia Mu who was still in shock.

Jia Mu took the yellow silk in a daze, and slowly stretched it out. After carefully reading the holy will on it, she still couldn't believe it. After confirming the authenticity of the jade seal again and again, she sat there with a heavy heart and was speechless for a long time. .

When she gradually came back to her senses, she saw that Zijuan and the others had already packed more than a dozen packages, and Daiyu had also taken back the yellow silk, and was standing there responding to the persuasion of Wang Xifeng and her sisters. With a firm expression, Jia's mother knew that the matter was irreversible.

Mother Jia really doesn't know what to do now, the situation is completely out of her control.Since Daiyu can get the emperor's favor, it proves that Daiyu must have a strong support behind her.If Daiyu stays stubbornly, I'm afraid I will offend the forces behind her, and even if the Jia family has the support of the empress, it will be a big trouble.

If Daiyu is allowed to leave here, and she is afraid that Daiyu will resent because of Mrs. Wang's matter and bring disaster to Jia's house, it is really a dilemma.The more Jia Mu thought about it, the angrier she became. At this moment, she wished she could swallow the troublemaker Mrs. Wang alive.

At this time, Mrs. Wang, who was hated by Jia's mother, was frightened by the imperial edict scooped out by Daiyu.She never expected that Daiyu would have a backhand, while she was jealous and resentful, she also knew that today's matter would be difficult, and she might suffer some punishment.So she lowered her head and hid behind Wang Xifeng, never daring to face Jia Mu again.

Jia Mu kept weighing the pros and cons in her heart, and finally thought, what if she let Daiyu go?After Daiyu returned to the south, she had nowhere to go but the old house in Gusu.The old house of the Lin family had long been given to the distant relatives of the Lin family as an ancestral hall according to Lin Ruhai's arrangement before his death.Even if Daiyu went back, she would not get along well with those distant relatives, and in the end she had to come back obediently and rely on her grandmother.

In this way, Daiyu, who has suffered a disadvantage, must be better able to handle it better, and then she will let her make arrangements to seek benefits for the Jia family.As for the so-called will, as long as she voluntarily, it is just a scrap of paper!The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this method was feasible. Jia's mother immediately made a decision. The plan for now is to stabilize Daiyu first, not to let her go to court with Mrs. Wang, and first allow her to leave on her own, so that the tense situation can be slightly eased. Later on.Anyway, with my grandmother here, I guess Daiyu would not go too far.

Thinking of this, Jia's mother pretended to be difficult and sighed: "Forget it, Lin girl, since you have made a decision, grandma can't force it. How about this, you go back to the south for a while to clean up, and pay homage to your parents by the way, and wait After a few days, grandma will send someone to bring you back. At that time, grandma will ask your aunt to prepare all the silver, and when you come back, I will give it to you for safekeeping, so as not to be embezzled by others." After finishing speaking, Jia Mu Then she turned her head and said, "Yuanyang, go back and get 2 taels of silver to Miss Lin, and give her some money on the road."

Yuanyang agreed to go, and Jiamu asked Yingchun to persuade Daiyu to stay temporarily and leave tomorrow.But Daiyu politely rejected their intentions, and insisted on finding an inn to stay for one night today, and departing for the south tomorrow.In order to show her determination, Daiyu also sent Xueyan to accompany the injured Wang Momo to find a carriage, and moved all the salutes there.

Because the capital has always been prosperous, the dignitaries, wealthy businessmen and businessmen mostly choose to socialize and socialize at night, so there are many horse-drawn carriages for hire in various parts of the capital, and all this arranged by Daiyu did not arouse the suspicion of the people in Jia's mansion.

Jia's mother didn't think anything else about it, she just thought that Daiyu was acting out of anger and didn't want to get involved with Jia's family, so she acted like this.In addition, she was very annoyed by Daiyu's ignorance, and wanted to let Daiyu know some difficulties and repent, so she didn't send anyone to send a car.Just wait for Daiyu to come back to ask for help when she knows the difficulty.But she didn't expect that Daiyu had already prepared for it. This time, it was really: opening the cage to fly the colorful phoenix, and there was no time to be restrained by her. After a while, the mandarin ducks rushed back and handed Daiyu a brocade box.Naturally, Daiyu would not be polite, so she took it and handed it to Zijuan.When Mrs. Wang saw the brocade box in Zijuan's hand, her face showed undisguised greed.

Suddenly her heart moved, this Zijuan is from the Jia family, if she can control Daiyu through her in the future, then... Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang couldn't help feeling proud.But Daiyu didn't know about Zijuan's contract of selling herself, and Daiyu asked her to go away long ago.When she learned about this in the future, she almost fainted from anger.

In fact, Mrs. Wang doesn't know. If it wasn't for Shui Rong, Mu Zixuan had told Daiyu not to have too much conflict with Jia's house for the time being, and Daiyu would have reported Mrs. Wang to the Yamen. How could it be tolerated? She was clamoring and calculating here, and when the dust settled, Daiyu saluted and bid farewell to Jia Mu.At this time, the sisters also gathered together, no matter whether they were sincere or not, they all wished Daiyu a safe journey.Even Xiangyun, who was at odds with each other on weekdays, thoughtfully wished Daiyu a few words.

Daiyu held Yingchun and Xichun's hands reluctantly.In the end, only a meaningful sentence was left: "Treasure!" Then he turned and left without looking back.

Yingchun and Xichun looked at Daiyu's far away back, with envy, relief and relief in their eyes.If they can't do it, let Daiyu realize it with their dreams.

Zijuan and Xueyan supported Daiyu, walked out of the cage-like Grand View Garden together, got into their own carriage, and rushed to their freedom, their dream home.

After the carriage drove out of the range of Jia's mansion, Daiyu told Li Fu, who was driving the carriage, to pay attention to whether there were people from Jia's mansion following behind.After Li Fu observed carefully, he found that there were two figures sneaking behind him.Li Fu smiled coldly, swung his whip to speed up, and turned into the alley next to him.After turning around like this for half an hour, the follower finally disappeared.

After repeatedly confirming that there was no one there, the group rushed back to the house Daiyu bought.At this time, Daiyu's master and servant were completely relieved, looked at each other and laughed.

Earlier, after Li Fu got the news from Nanny Wang, he sent Xin Zhu and Xin Lan to clean up the house.Now I finally brought the girl back, so I quickly invited the girl to go in and rest.

Daiyu first sent Xinzhu and Xueyan to take Wang Momo down to treat the wound on her forehead, and then sent Xinlan and Zijuan to put things away, and then she said to Li Fu and his son: "Housekeeper Li, you are really tired today. Yes. But starting from tomorrow, you and Tianyou will have to work hard for a few more days, and when the matter is completely over, let you rest well, what do you think?"

Although Li Fu did not recognize Daiyu as the master Lin Mo, he still kept in mind Daiyu's order. After rescuing the young lady in Jia's mansion, he must obey all the young lady's orders, so he respectfully replied: "Please do as you please. Li Fuding should do his best."

"Okay, tomorrow morning, you and Tianyou will dress up and bring some more silver. Go to the bustling areas around Jia's mansion or in the market, and find someone to spread some rumors. Say that Jia's mansion is greedy for the wealth of the orphaned girls in Mo. That……"

Li Fu and his son had long learned of Daiyu's experience in Jia's mansion, and they were very disgusted with Jia's mansion. Now that they could express their grievances against their own daughter, they would not refuse.

After letting them go down to rest, Daiyu returned to her room with ease.At this time, Xueyan and Wang Momo all gathered at Daiyu's place, because they knew that this was their real home, they were very excited and curious.Look here, touch there, the excited look makes Xinlan and Xinzhu who don't know why very puzzled.

Because Daiyu's master and servant were really tired, and she really didn't have the energy to explain to the two girls.So after tomorrow's rest, it's not too late to talk.

Daiyu in this room is planning to seize the opportunity for herself, while Jia Mu in that room is also thinking about how to reverse the decline.

Although Jia's mother already had a plan in mind, she still worried that Daiyu would target Jia's mansion.So she called Jia Zheng and Jia She to discuss the matter.In the end, the three of them decided that tomorrow they would let the servants go out to spread rumors about Daiyu's filial piety, and openly contradicted the elders who raised her, so that the people in the capital must have a bad impression of Daiyu.

As for why they acted like this, one reason was that after Daiyu's reputation was damaged, no one would trust her even if Daiyu said something that was not good for the Jia family.The second is to use this to test whether the power behind Daiyu will help Daiyu because of the rumors.

In fact, it's not that the three of Jia's mother didn't want to be cruel to Daiyu, but they were really afraid of the invisible power hidden behind Daiyu.Just in case, the three of them had no choice but to make such a bad move.

It's just a saying: Praying mantis catches cicada, and the oriole follows.Everyone is calculating, but whoever wins depends on God's will.

Obviously, God can't bear to see what the Jia Mansion has done.So when the servants of the Jia Mansion were ordered to go out and spread rumors, they were shocked to find that different rumors had spread in the capital long before they did.But this rumor actually pushed Jia's mansion to the cusp of the storm. For a while, Jia's mansion was notorious and was scolded by others.

When the slaves reported to the masters the rumors that Jia's mansion embezzled the orphan's money, refused to admit it, and drove the orphan out of the mansion, the faces of Jia's mother and others were completely darkened!I originally wanted to use rumors to smear Daiyu, but who knew that someone took the opportunity and counterattacked with the strategy of retaliating against others in the way of others. It's really too late to lose the rice, and there is no place for regret Jia Mu and Jia Zheng, who vented their anger, immediately found the culprit, Mrs. Wang.Poor Mrs. Wang, after being reprimanded by the two men like a storm, was deprived of her housekeeping rights and ordered to contemplate behind closed doors in the Buddhist hall in her yard for three months.

Jia Mu and Jia Zheng, who had calmed down, had already determined that the reason why the rumor spread so quickly was not only Daiyu's doing, but also the forces behind her must have intervened.The reason why they didn't take another action against Jia's family must be because they didn't deal with Daiyu cruelly.

Thinking of this, apart from giving up targeting Daiyu, the two of them could only try their best to eliminate the harm to Jia's mansion from the rumors, so as not to spread to the palace and make the empress suffer from it and lose her head.

Just when they were racking their brains to get Jia's family out of the quagmire of rumors, an unexpected discovery turned the unfavorable situation of Jia's house into a turning point, but this so-called turning point cost a life.
