The return of Fengxi of the Red Chamber
Chapter 66
"Please come in quickly!" Jia Shishi raised his voice, and then looked at Li Wan again, "Zhu's daughter-in-law, you go out and find Lian's daughter-in-law, you two are not needed here, go back and look at Baoyu." How many of them."
Li Wan hurriedly answered in a low voice, walked out of Jia Zheng's room quickly, and went to the corridor to look for Wang Xifeng without mentioning it.
Wang Xifeng wanted to watch the excitement here, but was worried that he would be burned later, so after thinking for a while, he followed Li Wan back to Rongqingtang.
But she kept An'er and Chunliu: "The two of you are waiting here and helping the wife. If there is anything urgent, report to me. Don't delay and neglect."
An'er responded with two crisp voices, and chose a place behind Mrs. Xing to stand still, just waiting to watch the excitement and go back to tell Wang Xifeng.
The sister-in-law had just left Lixiangyuan when they saw an old imperial doctor with gray beard who was led into the courtyard by a few maids. It looked like the doctor Wang often used by Jia Shishi.Imperial Physician Wang's pulse is not weak. Since Jia Daishan was still alive, he has been seeing the Jia family. After so many years, he has a strict tone and proper handling of affairs, which is quite valued by Jia Shishi.
Therefore, after Jia Zheng fainted for no reason, the first doctor she thought of was Imperial Physician Wang.
Originally, he thought that there would be no major incidents, but after Doctor Wang felt the pulse, his face became very serious, he hesitated to speak while looking at Jia Shishi, and then looked at the servants standing beside him.
Jia Shishi's heart tightened, but she managed not to change her expression, she only waved her hand to tell the maids and women in the room to go down, leaving only her and Wang Taiyi in the room, plus Jia Zheng who was unconscious.
"Doctor Wang has something to say, just say it bluntly, my son, he, he..."
Doctor Wang's face turned serious, and hesitantly whispered: "The second master of the family has been drugged. My medical skills are limited, so I can't be sure which one it is, but it seems to be the secret medicine of the previous dynasty. But the medicine It should be colorless and odorless, it will disappear after only twelve hours after being integrated into the human body, and it will not cause people to lose consciousness."
The more Jia Shishi listened to her heart, the higher she mentioned, she also had some secret medicines from the previous court, and all of them had extraordinary effects.But Jia Zheng was bored drinking at home all day, who would be free to give him this rare medicine?
Now is not the time to explore this, Jia Shishi withdrew his mind: "Physician Wang, we have been friends for decades, can my son still be cured?"
Imperial Physician Wang shook his head: "The secret medicine of the previous dynasty took effect very quickly, and after the second master was given the medicine, he seemed to have ejaculated semen. In addition, he drank too much and suffered from the cold. Now, now..."
"What's the matter now? But what hinders the body?"
Facing Jia Shishi's questioning, Imperial Physician Wang had no choice but to reveal the truth: "In the future, the second master may have a difficult time with his sons and heirs, and the second one may be inconvenient to move. But I still dare not say for sure. First prescribe two medicines and take them, and I will come back tomorrow to check the second master's pulse."
When Jia Shishi heard that he couldn't stand upright, he almost fell to the ground, second child, this is useless.
She forced herself to stabilize her mind, found a chair and sat down, and then asked angrily: "Please prescribe a prescription, but I need to ask for advice. You may be able to tell when my son took the medicine." Is it?"
Hearing this, Imperial Physician Wang took a closer look at Jia Zheng's pulse, and then replied with some hesitation: "It's hard to tell the exact time, but it's just yesterday. Besides the drug, the second master seems to have used What kind of tiger and wolf medicine has been used, and the effects of the two medicines collide with each other, so the traces are exposed."
Jia Shishi was silent for a long time after hearing the words, and then smiled: "Thank you, Doctor Wang, for your clarification, I understand."
Immediately she raised her voice and called the servant girl to come in: "Yuanyang, you take Imperial Physician Wang to prescribe prescriptions and get medicine, and then order the carriage in the house to take Imperial Physician Wang back home, don't neglect it."
After Yuanyang heard this, she knew that there was something behind the scenes, after all, she didn't tell her to send it back, she only said not to neglect it.Thinking about it, she took the top-quality red envelope of 50 taels of silver, and stuffed two extra gold locks in it, counting it as the expenses of Dr. Wang's visit, and put it all in her sleeves. Wait until the prescription is finished before giving it out.
Physician Wang saw it from the corner of his eye, and knew that it was a hush money, so he didn't say much, just followed Yuanyang to the study, wrote a prescription, and confessed: "Three bowls of water are boiled into one bowl, and the water needs to be used. Rootless water, pear charcoal for decoction, boiled slowly over low heat, drink a bowl before meals every day."
Yuanyang hurriedly took the prescription and thanked her: "Doctor Wang has worked hard. This is a small gesture. Please accept it. Tea and snacks have been set up next door. Let's take a rest and drink tea until the carriage is ready." Let's go."
Imperial Physician Wang was not polite either, took the money and put it into his arms, and said with a smile: "I can't leave now, I have to wait until the second master drinks this bowl of medicine, and I will wait for someone to wake up and see the effect."
After finishing speaking, he followed another little maid to the Nuan Pavilion to drink tea and wait while Yuanyang went to report to Jia Shishi without mentioning it.
Jia Shishi sat in the Lixiangyuan with a gloomy face, and Mrs. Xing sat quietly at the bottom, just waiting for her to give orders.
It's just that it's embarrassing to say this, Jia Shishi didn't mean to let Dafang know, so he just kept silent.Hearing Yuanyang came back and reported that the prescription was prescribed and that people would wake up after drinking the medicine, Jia Shishi breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at Mrs. Xing and said with a smile: "Boss wife, the second child has nothing else to do here. I have someone to accompany me here, so you can go back."
Mrs. Xing was not willing to wait here, after hearing Jia Shishi's words, she hurriedly got up to answer, and after a few gossips, she took the maidservant away.She felt a little regretful that she didn't see Jia Zheng's excitement, but she was also a little fortunate that the excitement would come out on its own, but it made Jia Shishi angry, and she might have to be seen by others If you follow the rules, the gains outweigh the losses.
When they reached the small garden, Mrs. Xing smiled at An'er and said, "I'll go back to Rongxi Hall, you two go to find Lian's daughter-in-law, and tell her again that the second master's place is open." You've got the medicine, don't worry too much."
An'er agreed, and went to find Sister Feng without mentioning it.
And Sister Feng and Li Wan just went to see Yingchun's sisters. Yingchun was learning how to cook tea from Madam Gu, and Tanchun was learning the rules from Madam Xie. Both of them were busy.As for Xichun, she was only a little over three years old, and she enjoyed playing in the garden with a few little maids, and she didn't need to worry about it.
After turning around, Wang Xifeng and Li Wan broke up and went back to their rooms to see their sons as there was no room for her.
When An'er came back, Wang Xifeng was talking to the new maid.
Since Ping'er went out, Wang Xifeng transferred sixteen servant girls from Zhuangzi the next day, all of them were eleven or twelve years old, pretty and lovely like flower bones, lined up in a row, almost like a group of maids. It's like a painting.
Of the sixteen maids, Wang Xifeng kept two for herself and gave two to Brother Mao, and gave two to the old lady and two to Mrs. Xing for the remaining twelve. Two of them were given to Qing'er by her, so they are all complete.
As for Li Wan's mother and son and Baoyu, even if Wang Xifeng wanted to give them away, some people would probably feel worried, so she simply didn't want to bother with that.
The maids like Wang Xifeng were not chosen randomly, but they had already started training in Zhuangzi when Jia Lian came back from rebirth.Not to mention the rules, just the reaction of the skills can overthrow three or five strong men with bare hands. Later, according to the different talents of everyone, they taught the skills of medicine, hidden weapons, cooking, female red, massage and other skills.
After more than three years of careful teaching, several batches were eliminated, and now these sixteen are the best among them.And since Wang Xifeng started thinking about releasing Ping'er, these 16 people learned the rules from Nanny Xie for another three months, and they would not be too erratic in their gestures, so as to violate the rules of the mansion.
Wang Xifeng left behind two maids, one named Qiuyue, who was highly skilled in martial arts, and the other named Xia Zhu, who was an outstanding female celebrity.I changed the names of the magpies and orioles, one was called Chunliu, and the other was called Dongxue, so I got four together.After waiting for the four maidservants, Ping An Xi Le, to go out, Chun Xia Qiu Dong took their place and continued to serve Wang Xifeng.
At this moment, Wang Xifeng held the teacup in her hand and was listening to Qiuyue's words: "Grandma, I just read the prescription prescribed by the imperial physician, and now I have written it down. Do you want to show it to Mrs. Lu?"
Wang Xifeng thought about it for a moment, and then replied: "It's good to have a look, and save yourself from being kept in the dark. When someone pours a basin of dirty water on your body, you won't be able to wash it clean."
When Qiuyue got the words, she went to look for Mrs. Lu, and after An'er and the two came back, they naturally had to report to Wang Xifeng.It's just that the two of them stayed for half a day in vain, and they didn't see Jia Shishi making any moves, so they could only pass on Mrs. Xing's words.
Wang Xifeng also knew that Jia Shishi would definitely keep this matter under wraps, just like the case of Jia Zhu's early death back then.Now that I got this, I don't think it's strange, I just nodded to show that they knew.
On the other side of the Lixiangyuan, Jia Shishi was not so calm, she winked at the old woman beside her, and ordered two young servants to be tied up and tortured.And she herself called the woman who guarded the gate of Pear Fragrance Court and the servants in the nearby courtyard to question one by one.
But yesterday, Aunt Zhao's behavior was really strict, and she forcibly avoided everyone's eyes. Except for Wang Xifeng who had sent someone to follow her, the rest really didn't see her going in and out of Lixiangyuan.Therefore, Jia Shishi asked for a long time, but he couldn't find out who it was, who secretly led Jia Zheng to have sex with men and women.
Jia Shishi was not without doubts, but the servants who took care of Aunt Zhao also said that she had been staying in the courtyard, chatting with Mrs. Zhao, and had never been out of the house.Aunt Zhao was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe. Wang Xifeng thought about it for a while, but she still didn't bring it up, because Jia Zheng would wake up sooner or later, and Aunt Zhao would not benefit from it.
She felt that Aunt Zhao and her ilk would not cause any harm to herself. For Tanchun's sake, there was no need to add fuel to the fire at this time, let's see her own luck.
After drinking the medicine prescribed by Dr. Wang, and having another round of acupuncture, Jia Zheng finally woke up.
It was also at this time that he realized that he was on the right side of his body, and he seemed to be a little out of control.He only raised his hand to take a cup for drinking tea, but he trembled and almost spilled water on himself.
Jia Zheng's face was very embarrassed, especially when he heard that Wang Taiyi said that he had taken the medicine, his offspring would be disadvantaged in the future, his movement would be inconvenient, and his face was as dark as ink.
Doctor Wang is a person with a wink, so he won't stay here to attract people's dislike. He quickly packed the medicine bag, got up and left.
When the person walked away, Jia Shishi stared at Jia Zhen and asked in a low voice: "Second brother, did you eat anything different yesterday? And did any woman enter your room yesterday?" ?”
Jia Zheng thought about it for a moment with a gloomy face, and then shook his head: "I eat and drink the same thing as all the guests, even if that person wants to poison, he will not poison the adult males of the Wang family, the Shi family, and the Jia family. Catch them all at once. It would be crazy to do this, and it would cause public outrage."
Jia Shishi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words. Although she was angry about Jia Zheng's heir, she was not too sad.After all, Jia Zheng has two sons and two daughters under his name, and his grandson Jia Lan is already at his full age, so there is really no need to worry that he will have no one to take care of him in the future.But if because of this matter, accidentally hurt the juniors of the Wang family and the Shi family, I am afraid that the Jia family will be torn apart by these two families.
"As for the woman, I was in a daze last night and seemed to see a woman coming in. But I was drinking too much, and I couldn't see her face clearly. I only felt very familiar, vaguely like Aunt Zhao. " Jia Zheng said hesitantly, and then his eyes widened suddenly, "hangover soup! Yesterday afternoon, Aunt Zhao ordered someone to bring me a bowl of hangover soup!"
Jia Shishi squeezed the crutch in his hand, then shook his head and sighed: "It's not Zhao Shi, she can't get the secret medicine from the previous dynasty. Second child, we can get that in the mansion, but only three years later." There are five people, but there are only two who will attack you, who can you think of?"
Jia Zheng bowed his head and said nothing, and after a while he replied, "Brother and Mrs. Wang."
Hearing this, Jia Shishi raised the crutch in his hand, and wanted to hit Jia Zheng, but seeing his pale face lying on the bed, he didn't hit him for a long time.
"You are confused!" She yelled sharply, "If your elder brother wanted to attack you, he would have done it 20 years ago, how could he wait until today!"
"You have been good at studying since you were a child. From the old man to your father, everyone praised you for your intelligence. It's a pity that you didn't make any progress in your fame. Pearl was born, and you only became a scholar. You are depressed every day. Go on. Your father was worried that you would not recover from the fall, so he had the audacity to commit suicide and offered you an official position in the Ministry of Industry, hoping that you could do something in the officialdom."
"I'm also confused. Your elder brother is the eldest son and grandson. He is a nobleman. This Rongxi Hall and Rongguo Mansion should belong to him! But I feel sorry for you and feel that you are pitiful without the title. I gave you the right to be the head of the family, and the chaos in the mansion caused peace, and the trouble caused the boss to separate from me..."
As Jia Shishi spoke, tears rolled down the wrinkles on his face and wet the front of his clothes.
Jia Zheng said with a straight face, "It's my son who is not filial or fraternal. I'm sorry for my mother and elder brother."
"What are you sorry for me? What you are sorry for is your elder brother! Even though he is a bit of a coward, he has been kind to you since he was a child. Even if Mrs. Wang killed his first wife and eldest son, he never thought of asking for help from him." You, Yuan Chun, and Zhu'er! You have lived in the stable for so many years, and you have been ridiculed by the people in the house and the capital, but have you ever embarrassed you outside once?"
"But you, now that someone has drugged you, the first person to suspect is your elder brother! Second child, is he this type of person in your heart? The brotherhood of these years has never held any weight in your heart ?"
Jia Shishi was crying sadly, she always thought that the boss, Jia She, was narrow-minded and didn't care about brotherhood, so she insisted on catching Jia Zheng's mistakes.But it turns out that her second son is extremely suspicious of her elder brother in her heart, and whenever there is something, she will be the first to speculate on Jia She.
Jia Zheng's face was burning hot, as if he had been slapped a few times, but he felt ashamed for a long time.
Jia Shishi's words seemed to have stripped off the mask he had been wearing all along, revealing Jia Zheng's deep-seated fear and hatred for Jia Amnesty, and he couldn't help but refute.
Seeing Jia Zheng's appearance, Jia Shishi felt distressed and angry at the same time. He patted his chest for a long time, and then said: "What happened today must have been done by your good wife. She is in the Buddhist hall. How can you allow you to live a happy life outside with your beautiful concubine and young son. Other people will not work hard on your housework, and it is even more difficult to find this palace secret medicine."
"This is really a centipede who is dead but not stiff. They are all locked in the Buddhist hall, and there is no one to serve them, but they can still stir up trouble. It can be seen that there are her people in this mansion." Jia Shishi hated He said hatefully, with a fierce light in his eyes, "If it wasn't for Yuanchun and Baoyu's love, how could I have allowed her to play a role in our Jia family for so many years, playing power and causing trouble!"
Jia Zheng didn't dare to say anything, he just watched Jia Shishi grit his teeth when he mentioned Wang's.
He also hated it very much, but for any man, no matter how many children he has or how old he is, losing his masculinity is unbearable.What's more, Jia Zheng felt that he was young and had a lot to do in the future. Now that he was plotted against like this, he would even behave badly in the future. How could he bear this bad breath.
The more Jia Zheng thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help cursing: "This poisonous woman! I'm going to divorce her!"
Jia Shishi sneered and said: "Divorce her? Let her go back to Wang's house to eat delicious food and drink hot food, and live the life of a noble lady again? Wouldn't that be too cheap for her! In the past, I cared about you and your child's face, Don't dare to go too far, now that she's looking for death, it's no wonder my old lady is cruel."
After all, Jia Shishi looked at Jia Zheng and said, "You are taking care of your wounds, don't worry about others. You must drink your medicines on time every day, and Imperial Physician Wang will come to give you acupuncture every day. First, heal your hands and feet. Okay, let’s talk. When I find the evidence, when Mrs. Wang dies, at that time, even Wang Ziteng will not be able to say no!"
Seeing the sternness on Jia Shishi's face, Jia Zheng shivered Lingling, feeling that while venting his anger, he also inevitably became a little more jealous of his mother.
It's just that now in the Rongguo Mansion, apart from relying on the Jia Shi family, Jia Zheng has no manpower to rely on.
Those people he trained in the past were pulled out one by one by Jia She and Jia Lian in the previous confrontations with Dafang, and now they have become bare commanders.Moreover, Jia Zhu died early, Jia Baoyu and Tanchun were young, and Yuanchun married again. Even though they had two sons and two daughters, it was difficult to rely on one of them.
Not to mention how much Jia Zheng felt for himself, Jia Shi resolutely took the people in Aunt Zhao's yard, especially those who had gone through the second gate that day, and tortured them all.
However, everyone had evidence of their alibi. On the way, only Mrs. Qian escaped everyone's sight and went to the small kitchen alone to get hangover soup, which Jia Zheng drank into his stomach.
Thinking of Mrs. Qian's begging and begging a few days ago, and how generously she let go of the Qian family boy's body deed, Jia Shishi wished she could faint.This wolfish and ambitious person, who didn't want to repay the kindness of the master, but instead drugged the master, is really a crime worthy of death!
Jia Shi secretly sent a letter to the government, but within three days, he followed the direction led by the road and brought back Mrs. Qian's only son.When she was being severely tortured, Mrs. Qian still gritted her teeth and refused to admit it, but looking at her son who was bloody and bloody from the beating, she couldn't help but confess them one by one.
With the evidence of Mrs. Qian's relationship with Mrs. Wang, as well as the remaining medicine powder paper package she secretly hid under the rockery in the mansion, Jia Shishi did not bear it again this time, and directly disclosed the matter to Wang Ziteng.
Wang Ziteng was really stunned by his sister's ability to make troubles. He couldn't understand at all. He had already ended up in such a field. Why did the Wang family persist in making waves? How long has it been?
Wang Ziteng, who couldn't figure it out, faced his sister Wang's calm face, but couldn't even ask him a question.Looking at Wang's expression, one knew that she was just begging for death now, and didn't care how she would be punished by the Jia family or the Wang family.
Wang Ziteng was silent for a while, and then asked in a deep voice: "I tried my best last time, and even broke up with Feng Geer, just to save your life. Yuan Chun just got married, Baoyu and Lang Geer were still young, and they are still young. Sister, why do you insist on looking for death?"
Mrs. Wang smiled slightly, and asked Wang Ziteng to sit down and talk: "Second brother, I know your kindness, but every day in this Buddhist hall, I live like a year. No one talks to me, no one communicates with me. There is pain everywhere, look at my hands, can you still see a trace of the past?"
Saying that, Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand, which was as rough as old bark, cracked and withered, how could it be seen that it was well maintained in the past?
Wang Ziteng felt distressed and angry at the same time, looking into his sister's eyes, but couldn't say a word.
"Second brother, just treat me as the last selfish one. I'm really living a hard life. You don't have to save my life. I don't want to live anymore." Wang smiled instead and said easily, "I did it before. Many sins, now that they are dead, it is only a redemption. Just Yuanchun and Baoyu, please take care of them a little bit, it will be considered as the end of decades of friendship between us brothers and sisters."
After all, without waiting for Wang Ziteng's reaction, Wang picked up the water glass at hand and drank all the contents in the glass, but in the blink of an eye, people lost their breath.
Li Wan hurriedly answered in a low voice, walked out of Jia Zheng's room quickly, and went to the corridor to look for Wang Xifeng without mentioning it.
Wang Xifeng wanted to watch the excitement here, but was worried that he would be burned later, so after thinking for a while, he followed Li Wan back to Rongqingtang.
But she kept An'er and Chunliu: "The two of you are waiting here and helping the wife. If there is anything urgent, report to me. Don't delay and neglect."
An'er responded with two crisp voices, and chose a place behind Mrs. Xing to stand still, just waiting to watch the excitement and go back to tell Wang Xifeng.
The sister-in-law had just left Lixiangyuan when they saw an old imperial doctor with gray beard who was led into the courtyard by a few maids.

Wait until the prescription is finished before giving it out.
Physician Wang saw it from the corner of his eye, and knew that it was a hush money, so he didn't say much, just followed Yuanyang to the study, wrote a prescription, and confessed: "Three bowls of water are boiled into one bowl, and the water needs to be used. Rootless water, pear charcoal for decoction, boiled slowly over low heat, drink a bowl before meals every day."
Yuanyang hurriedly took the prescription and thanked her: "Doctor Wang has worked hard. This is a small gesture. Please accept it. Tea and snacks have been set up next door. Let's take a rest and drink tea until the carriage is ready." Let's go."
Imperial Physician Wang was not polite either, took the money and put it into his arms, and said with a smile: "I can't leave now, I have to wait until the second master drinks this bowl of medicine, and I will wait for someone to wake up and see the effect."
After finishing speaking, he followed another little maid to the Nuan Pavilion to drink tea and wait while Yuanyang went to report to Jia Shishi without mentioning it.
Jia Shishi sat in the Lixiangyuan with a gloomy face, and Mrs. Xing sat quietly at the bottom, just waiting for her to give orders.

Wang Xifeng also knew that Jia Shishi would definitely keep this matter under wraps, just like the case of Jia Zhu's early death back then.Now that I got this, I don't think it's strange, I just nodded to show that they knew.
On the other side of the Lixiangyuan, Jia Shishi was not so calm, she winked at the old woman beside her, and ordered two young servants to be tied up and tortured.And she herself called the woman who guarded the gate of Pear Fragrance Court and the servants in the nearby courtyard to question one by one.
But yesterday, Aunt Zhao's behavior was really strict, and she forcibly avoided everyone's eyes. Except for Wang Xifeng who had sent someone to follow her, the rest really didn't see her going in and out of Lixiangyuan.Therefore, Jia Shishi asked for a long time, but he couldn't find out who it was, who secretly led Jia Zheng to have sex with men and women.
Jia Shishi was not without doubts, but the servants who took care of Aunt Zhao also said that she had been staying in the courtyard, chatting with Mrs. Zhao, and had never been out of the house.Aunt Zhao was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe. Wang Xifeng thought about it for a while, but she still didn't bring it up, because Jia Zheng would wake up sooner or later, and Aunt Zhao would not benefit from it.
She felt that Aunt Zhao and her ilk would not cause any harm to herself. For Tanchun's sake, there was no need to add fuel to the fire at this time, let's see her own luck.
After drinking the medicine prescribed by Dr. Wang, and having another round of acupuncture, Jia Zheng finally woke up.
It was also at this time that he realized that he was on the right side of his body, and he seemed to be a little out of control.He only raised his hand to take a cup for drinking tea, but he trembled and almost spilled water on himself.
Jia Zheng's face was very embarrassed, especially when he heard that Wang Taiyi said that he had taken the medicine, his offspring would be disadvantaged in the future, his movement would be inconvenient, and his face was as dark as ink.
Doctor Wang is a person with a wink, so he won't stay here to attract people's dislike. He quickly packed the medicine bag, got up and left.
When the person walked away, Jia Shishi stared at Jia Zhen and asked in a low voice: "Second brother, did you eat anything different yesterday? And did any woman enter your room yesterday?" ?”
Jia Zheng thought about it for a moment with a gloomy face, and then shook his head: "I eat and drink the same thing as all the guests, even if that person wants to poison, he will not poison the adult males of the Wang family, the Shi family, and the Jia family. Catch them all at once. It would be crazy to do this, and it would cause public outrage."
Jia Shishi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words. Although she was angry about Jia Zheng's heir, she was not too sad.After all, Jia Zheng has two sons and two daughters under his name, and his grandson Jia Lan is already at his full age, so there is really no need to worry that he will have no one to take care of him in the future.But if because of this matter, accidentally hurt the juniors of the Wang family and the Shi family, I am afraid that the Jia family will be torn apart by these two families.
"As for the woman, I was in a daze last night and seemed to see a woman coming in. But I was drinking too much, and I couldn't see her face clearly. I only felt very familiar, vaguely like Aunt Zhao. " Jia Zheng said hesitantly, and then his eyes widened suddenly, "hangover soup! Yesterday afternoon, Aunt Zhao ordered someone to bring me a bowl of hangover soup!"
Jia Shishi squeezed the crutch in his hand, then shook his head and sighed: "It's not Zhao Shi, she can't get the secret medicine from the previous dynasty. Second child, we can get that in the mansion, but only three years later." There are five people, but there are only two who will attack you, who can you think of?"
Jia Zheng bowed his head and said nothing, and after a while he replied, "Brother and Mrs. Wang."
Hearing this, Jia Shishi raised the crutch in his hand, and wanted to hit Jia Zheng, but seeing his pale face lying on the bed, he didn't hit him for a long time.
"You are confused!" She yelled sharply, "If your elder brother wanted to attack you, he would have done it 20 years ago, how could he wait until today!"
"You have been good at studying since you were a child. From the old man to your father, everyone praised you for your intelligence. It's a pity that you didn't make any progress in your fame. Pearl was born, and you only became a scholar. You are depressed every day. Go on. Your father was worried that you would not recover from the fall, so he had the audacity to commit suicide and offered you an official position in the Ministry of Industry, hoping that you could do something in the officialdom."
"I'm also confused. Your elder brother is the eldest son and grandson. He is a nobleman. This Rongxi Hall and Rongguo Mansion should belong to him! But I feel sorry for you and feel that you are pitiful without the title. I gave you the right to be the head of the family, and the chaos in the mansion caused peace, and the trouble caused the boss to separate from me..."
As Jia Shishi spoke, tears rolled down the wrinkles on his face and wet the front of his clothes.
Jia Zheng said with a straight face, "It's my son who is not filial or fraternal. I'm sorry for my mother and elder brother."
"What are you sorry for me? What you are sorry for is your elder brother! Even though he is a bit of a coward, he has been kind to you since he was a child. Even if Mrs. Wang killed his first wife and eldest son, he never thought of asking for help from him." You, Yuan Chun, and Zhu'er! You have lived in the stable for so many years, and you have been ridiculed by the people in the house and the capital, but have you ever embarrassed you outside once?"
"But you, now that someone has drugged you, the first person to suspect is your elder brother! Second child, is he this type of person in your heart? The brotherhood of these years has never held any weight in your heart ?"
Jia Shishi was crying sadly, she always thought that the boss, Jia She, was narrow-minded and didn't care about brotherhood, so she insisted on catching Jia Zheng's mistakes.But it turns out that her second son is extremely suspicious of her elder brother in her heart, and whenever there is something, she will be the first to speculate on Jia She.
Jia Zheng's face was burning hot, as if he had been slapped a few times, but he felt ashamed for a long time.
Jia Shishi's words seemed to have stripped off the mask he had been wearing all along, revealing Jia Zheng's deep-seated fear and hatred for Jia Amnesty, and he couldn't help but refute.
Seeing Jia Zheng's appearance, Jia Shishi felt distressed and angry at the same time. He patted his chest for a long time, and then said: "What happened today must have been done by your good wife. She is in the Buddhist hall. How can you allow you to live a happy life outside with your beautiful concubine and young son. Other people will not work hard on your housework, and it is even more difficult to find this palace secret medicine."
"This is really a centipede who is dead but not stiff. They are all locked in the Buddhist hall, and there is no one to serve them, but they can still stir up trouble. It can be seen that there are her people in this mansion." Jia Shishi hated He said hatefully, with a fierce light in his eyes, "If it wasn't for Yuanchun and Baoyu's love, how could I have allowed her to play a role in our Jia family for so many years, playing power and causing trouble!"
Jia Zheng didn't dare to say anything, he just watched Jia Shishi grit his teeth when he mentioned Wang's.
He also hated it very much, but for any man, no matter how many children he has or how old he is, losing his masculinity is unbearable.What's more, Jia Zheng felt that he was young and had a lot to do in the future. Now that he was plotted against like this, he would even behave badly in the future. How could he bear this bad breath.
The more Jia Zheng thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help cursing: "This poisonous woman! I'm going to divorce her!"
Jia Shishi sneered and said: "Divorce her? Let her go back to Wang's house to eat delicious food and drink hot food, and live the life of a noble lady again? Wouldn't that be too cheap for her! In the past, I cared about you and your child's face, Don't dare to go too far, now that she's looking for death, it's no wonder my old lady is cruel."
After all, Jia Shishi looked at Jia Zheng and said, "You are taking care of your wounds, don't worry about others. You must drink your medicines on time every day, and Imperial Physician Wang will come to give you acupuncture every day. First, heal your hands and feet. Okay, let’s talk. When I find the evidence, when Mrs. Wang dies, at that time, even Wang Ziteng will not be able to say no!"
Seeing the sternness on Jia Shishi's face, Jia Zheng shivered Lingling, feeling that while venting his anger, he also inevitably became a little more jealous of his mother.
It's just that now in the Rongguo Mansion, apart from relying on the Jia Shi family, Jia Zheng has no manpower to rely on.
Those people he trained in the past were pulled out one by one by Jia She and Jia Lian in the previous confrontations with Dafang, and now they have become bare commanders.Moreover, Jia Zhu died early, Jia Baoyu and Tanchun were young, and Yuanchun married again. Even though they had two sons and two daughters, it was difficult to rely on one of them.
Not to mention how much Jia Zheng felt for himself, Jia Shi resolutely took the people in Aunt Zhao's yard, especially those who had gone through the second gate that day, and tortured them all.
However, everyone had evidence of their alibi. On the way, only Mrs. Qian escaped everyone's sight and went to the small kitchen alone to get hangover soup, which Jia Zheng drank into his stomach.
Thinking of Mrs. Qian's begging and begging a few days ago, and how generously she let go of the Qian family boy's body deed, Jia Shishi wished she could faint.This wolfish and ambitious person, who didn't want to repay the kindness of the master, but instead drugged the master, is really a crime worthy of death!
Jia Shi secretly sent a letter to the government, but within three days, he followed the direction led by the road and brought back Mrs. Qian's only son.When she was being severely tortured, Mrs. Qian still gritted her teeth and refused to admit it, but looking at her son who was bloody and bloody from the beating, she couldn't help but confess them one by one.
With the evidence of Mrs. Qian's relationship with Mrs. Wang, as well as the remaining medicine powder paper package she secretly hid under the rockery in the mansion, Jia Shishi did not bear it again this time, and directly disclosed the matter to Wang Ziteng.
Wang Ziteng was really stunned by his sister's ability to make troubles. He couldn't understand at all. He had already ended up in such a field. Why did the Wang family persist in making waves? How long has it been?
Wang Ziteng, who couldn't figure it out, faced his sister Wang's calm face, but couldn't even ask him a question.Looking at Wang's expression, one knew that she was just begging for death now, and didn't care how she would be punished by the Jia family or the Wang family.
Wang Ziteng was silent for a while, and then asked in a deep voice: "I tried my best last time, and even broke up with Feng Geer, just to save your life. Yuan Chun just got married, Baoyu and Lang Geer were still young, and they are still young. Sister, why do you insist on looking for death?"
Mrs. Wang smiled slightly, and asked Wang Ziteng to sit down and talk: "Second brother, I know your kindness, but every day in this Buddhist hall, I live like a year. No one talks to me, no one communicates with me. There is pain everywhere, look at my hands, can you still see a trace of the past?"
Saying that, Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand, which was as rough as old bark, cracked and withered, how could it be seen that it was well maintained in the past?
Wang Ziteng felt distressed and angry at the same time, looking into his sister's eyes, but couldn't say a word.
"Second brother, just treat me as the last selfish one. I'm really living a hard life. You don't have to save my life. I don't want to live anymore." Wang smiled instead and said easily, "I did it before. Many sins, now that they are dead, it is only a redemption. Just Yuanchun and Baoyu, please take care of them a little bit, it will be considered as the end of decades of friendship between us brothers and sisters."
After all, without waiting for Wang Ziteng's reaction, Wang picked up the water glass at hand and drank all the contents in the glass, but in the blink of an eye, people lost their breath.
