Jia Lian of the Red Chamber
Chapter 45
Sister Feng heard that her tone was wrong, and seeing Jia Lian was very angry, she couldn't help but think about Jia's mother's rebellion that day, and guessed in her heart: "The meaning of what the second master said, could it be that Zhou and He's family were arrested? Did we miss the news here?"
Jia Lian was so angry that he beat his hands: "Although it is not allowed, it is not far away!" He almost drove Wang out of Rongxi Hall, but the result fell short. How could Jia Lian not hate it.
Sister Feng immediately raised her willow eyebrows, and her phoenix eyes were filled with anger. She always thought that her fence was firmly established, and she didn't want to become a house thief. If you dare to betray the Lord, see if I expose her!"
Jia Lian let out a long sigh, and spread his hands helplessly: "Hey, it's as simple as that. Let me tell you, lead the old lady on this side, and the old lady on the other side, who are you to expose!"
Sister Feng is a fine character, upon hearing this, she knew that the entire big house had been played by Jia Mu, and that her own house had also been buried with spies to repay the gods, thinking of Jia Mu's kindness in ten days, but behind her In this way, Sister Feng didn't know which face to believe.
I dare not delve into this matter, I am terrified to think about it carefully.
Sister Feng felt that the hairs all over her body were standing on end, and she took a breath for a moment of toothache: "Who the hell? Since there is such a person, why did they wait until such a time to show up?"
Although Sister Feng thinks she's acting in secret, it's hard to guard against family thieves, who can keep it!
Jia Lian also had lingering fears: "Fortunately, this nail was planted not long ago, and it won't be a good thing. Otherwise, we might steal the chicken this time and lose everything!"
Sister Feng is very fortunate, thanks to Jia's mother who underestimated Jia Lian in the past, otherwise it would be really dangerous.But he was not convinced in the end, he frowned and said, "Is that the way to go?"
Jia Lian was not reconciled either, but the words of filial piety came first: "The old lady can't move at the moment. Fortunately, the girl is only passing on the message at the second door. You just need to hang her up. I will send the message to the old lady. What about her?" Enough is enough for the day."
That night, Jia Lian begged to see his father, Jia Amnesty, but no one knew what the father and son had said.
This is a later story, let alone mention it.
Let's talk about the celebration dinner that Jia's mother organized this day in order to squeeze the feelings of her children and grandchildren, but under Jia Amnesty's disturbance, she lost the festiveness it should have had.
Mother Jia was threatened by her eldest son, Jia She, and had to compromise, agreeing to celebrate Jia Lian's success with a banquet in Rongxi Hall. Although she had plenty of money, she couldn't swallow it.As a result, I felt very unhappy, and I was less talkative during the banquet, and lost the old humor.
Sister Feng also lost the mind to laugh and laugh because she saw through the bloody wrist behind Jia Mu's kindness.For a while, the atmosphere of the banquet was very dignified.
With Jia Amnesty absent, Jia Zheng has the highest status among all the men. Seeing that the usual dandy changed his ways and became proud, his son Zhu Er, who was proud of himself, died young, he felt very uncomfortable.
However, no matter how unhappy he was in his heart, he couldn't say it out loud. In order to show his tolerance, Jia Zheng bit the bullet and praised Jia Lian several times. Afterwards, he drank a few cups of stuffy wine, his ears were hot, his blood was hot, and his last bit of reason disappeared. Jia Zheng immediately revealed his true face, his expression suddenly became severe, and his cold eyes wandered around, making everyone feel poked.
Baoyu was teaching Jia Lan how to taste wine in a low voice here, when Jia Zheng saw that he was not in a good mood, and just venting his anger, he opened his mouth and scolded: "Nie Zhan, look at your cowardice, you are worthy of teaching others? Shit, I am ashamed to death Come on, get out of here quickly!"
Jia Zheng had a sudden attack, Baoyu stood stunned, terrified, at a loss, Jia Huan, Jia Cong and Jia Lan were even worse, all of them were so frightened that they avoided cats and mice, wishing to hide under the table.
Jia Lian hated him already, and for Jia Mu's sake, he resisted dealing with him, but unexpectedly Jia Zheng was so frustrated, disgusted in his heart, he pursed his mouth tightly and kept silent, buried his head in playing with the wine cup, and the whole banquet was silent.
When Jia's mother saw Jia Zheng disturbing the situation, she was immediately upset.
Just as Jia Amnesty held down the other end, Jia Zheng came to make fun again. Jia's mother was very afraid that Jia Lian would turn his face, and was very angry at Jia Zheng's inappropriateness: "Today is Lian'er's celebration banquet. What are you doing with your red nose and green eyebrows?"
Jia Zheng was not as good as Jia She, who was scolded since he was a child, and his cultivation was rough and fleshy. It was the first time he was scolded by Jia's mother in public. Overwhelmed by alcohol, I ate a few more glasses in joy, but I couldn't control it for a while, which disturbed the old lady's mood!"
Mother Jia snorted coldly.
Jia Zheng's face became more and more disgraced, and he was too drunk to drink, so he resigned in desperation.
As soon as Jia Zheng left, Baoyu Jiahuan and Jia Cong came alive under the comfort of his mother.When Jia's mother scolded Jia Zheng, she felt better, so she greeted her grandchildren to kiss Jia Lian.
After hearing this, Baoyu came forward to toast Jia Lian, just talking about the success of the toad palace.
Jia Lian's interest was defeated by Jia Zheng, so he was not in the mood, he was able to deal with it, and he didn't say much.
The family dinner carefully planned by Jia's mother ended without embarrassment.
Because Jia Amnesty was disgusted with Jia's mother's partiality, he deliberately released the wind and wanted to have a banquet in the east courtyard to celebrate Jia Lian.
Once this is done, it will be tantamount to announcing the privacy of the struggle between the two houses of Rongguo Mansion to the public.
Of course, Mother Jia didn't allow such a joke to happen, so she had no choice but to obey Jia Amnesty's wishes and spend money and effort to hold a banquet in the Rongqing Hall to entertain the guests who came to celebrate, creating the illusion that the brothers in Rongfu were still in harmony, so as to cover up the big room. The fact of being suppressed.
Originally, Mother Jia wanted to ease the relationship between the two families, and she thought about letting Wang and Sister Feng entertain the female guests of various families in Rongqing Hall together.
Clinker, Mrs. Wang doesn't know how to flatter her.Because of jealousy and because she was ashamed to meet her natal sister-in-law, she didn't want to show up, so she made a lot of rhetoric and rejected Jiamu: "Actually, the old lady should not shirk sending her daughter-in-law, but the daughter-in-law is always not very straightforward, so Minger."
Mother Jia saw that she didn't know how to flatter her, and she dared to play smart in front of her. She was very disgusted and said, "That's just right. Tomorrow, the elder will arrange for the eldest wife to go to the temple on behalf of the eldest house to pray for your old father. The second bedroom will have a prayer." Go ahead."
The so-called kneeling scriptures to repay the vow is that Jia Daishan made a vow after Jia Zhu was selected as a scholar, thinking that the advancement of his descendants is the protection of the ancestors, so he vowed that in the future, if any descendants are selected, they will do seven-day rituals to reward their ancestors.
Now that Jia Lian is selected as a scholar, the Rongfu should go to the temple to kneel and pray for Jia Daishan.
In the past, such things as paying gods to worship ancestors and kneeling scriptures to fulfill vows were usually performed by the young masters in the mansion, but now the Xing family and the Wang family offended the people in power at the same time, so they had to kneel to the scriptures.
Wang has always thought highly of herself, so she is not willing to kneel down for Jia Lian, who is a waste in her eyes.
Helplessly, as a mother-in-law, Jia's mother could have suppressed the Wang family, and Jia's mother moved out the last wish of the deceased husband. This is a matter of fairness and family unity.
If Wang's disobedience is disobedience, there are seven crimes.
Mrs. Wang was involved in the old case of theft. She should have divorced her wife long ago. She only managed to keep her position as the second wife because of Jia Mu's love and protection. How dare she disobey Jia Mu's order?
The Wang family has become an abandoned son in the Wang family, and Jia Yuanchun is not well-known in the palace. The only thing he can rely on is Jia's mother's support.
Once Jia's mother turned her back and ignored her, Dafang could knock her into the dust with a backhand.
As I said, it's not a fart for the Wang family to leave Jia's mother's favor now!
Wang felt resentful, but had no choice but to obediently pack her luggage and head to the temple.
Mrs. Xing arrived early, and she was surprised to see Mrs. Wang also came to kneel for sutras. She was immediately in a good mood. After the previous depression was gone, she came forward to see each other with a smile, and took the opportunity to provoke and sneered: "Oh, I thought I was the only one in this mansion who didn't have children. Those who have no natal family are not welcomed by their mother-in-law, and are sent to the temple. The second wife is a rich and noble daughter, and has always been the old lady's treasure. gone?"
Can Mrs. Wang say that she was not disliked by Jia Mu, and the reason why she came here was because she secretly poisoned Sister Feng, so she was ashamed to see the two sisters-in-law of the Wang family.
Obviously, Mrs. Wang can't expose her ugliness!
No matter how angry Wang is, she can only hold her nose to be ridiculed by her, and dare not say a word.
The Xing family was originally an ignorant villain, once they gained power, they would inevitably be rampant, and the words became more and more rustic.
Because when the Wang family was in high spirits, she used to laugh at running on the Xing family, saying that in order to keep her position as a wife, she had to hunt for Jia Xie and take concubines.
At that time, the Xing family couldn't afford to offend the Wang family and had to endure it. Now the Xing family can see that the Wang family's status is not as good as before, otherwise they should have a banquet in the mansion, and would not come here to kneel.
Therefore, Xing mentioned the origin of Aunt Zhao and Tanchun, but Tanchun was protected by Jia's mother.
It was Wang's lifelong hatred that Zhao Bushi, the goblin, was not killed at the beginning, and Wang was suddenly so angry that he was half dead.
Mrs. Xing didn't let it go, and said that Jia Amnesty doted on his concubine again, and only rested in the study room every day, and always went to the main room on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. For a few months, like a husband and wife, Wang's rich and noble wife couldn't even touch the hem of her husband's robe.
In order to compete for favor, Mrs. Wang did not know how many spiritual herbs and medicines she took. She was pregnant with Baoyu in her thirties and gave birth to a child at an advanced age. She almost died of blood collapse and her body was ruined. With face and affection, I watched Aunt Zhao take the top spot.
It can be said that the beauty is no longer old.
This is the most humiliating experience in Wang's life, but it was used by this stupid woman as Xing to grind her teeth.
Wang gritted her teeth in hatred and almost vomited blood. She endured the humiliation and went back to the meditation room, smashing the teacup all over the floor: "The vicious woman of Xing, you bullied me too much. If I gain power in the future, I will definitely crush you!"
Zhou Rui's family died, and there were two young Jin Chuan and Caixia left in front of Wang, who were so frightened that they dared not persuade her at all, but it was the accompanying daughter-in-law, Wang Dengxin, who saw that her face was not right, so she boldly stepped forward to comfort her: "Madam, Why are you angry with her, she is called Yu, she knows the way of human relations and motherly affection?"
These words hit her heart, Wang's heart was full of joy, and then she breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, you are right, she is called Yu, a beast, what do people care about with animals, ha, ha, ha, ha!"
Mrs. Wang's miserable smile was too creepy, Mrs. Xing was frightened by her, and she never provoked Mrs. Wang again.
Jia's mother sent Wang away, and specially invited Jia She and his son to discuss. It was agreed to have a banquet for the guests in Rongqing hall and a banquet for male guests in Rongxi hall.Dongyuan Garden has a beautiful scenery, and several yards have been cleaned up as a place for relatives to retreat.
Jia's mother is willing to show face for the eldest son, and Jia Amnesty will not be so stupid as to disturb her son's celebration banquet.Instead, they reached an agreement in two strokes, and the mother and son were in harmony.
Jia Mu is responsible for the financing of the banquet on this day, and the list of banquet guests is drawn up by Jia Amnesty.
Jia Amnesty's dandyism was fully revealed, he drew up a list and threw it to Jia Lian casually, never mind.He got Jia's mother out and took out the money to wipe his face, and he had achieved his goal, and he also helped Jia Lian earn enough face, so he went home to drink a little wine.
Jia Lian was in charge of sending out the invitations. Fortunately, Sister Feng had already prepared for the Spring Festival. Jia Lian checked it carefully, made some additions, and then added the date to the invitations written for the Spring Festival, and that was it.
The clumsy work of inviting theatrical troupe and building the stage was all arranged by Lai Da himself.
Sister Feng is in charge of the internal affairs, arranging where to hold the banquet, where to retreat, etc., then draws up the menu, determines the banquet drinks, tea soup, and tableware for the banquet.
All the arrangements have been made, and the ancestors should be asked to review them one by one. After Jia's mother agrees, they will be handed over to Guan Shi's daughter-in-law to handle them separately.
All the specific affairs were arranged by Sister Feng, from the early morning when she asked Mother Jia to press the button, she was busy until she got the final list of guests in the afternoon, and Sister Feng specially prepared [-]% of the things for spare.
This busy work lasted until dusk, when Sister Feng was satisfied.
The next day, April nineteenth.
At the beginning of the day, there was a hustle and bustle of carriages and horses driving on Rongning Street, and relatives and friends from all walks of life came to the door one after another.
At the second quarter of the first lunar month, the two troupes of Rongqingtang and Rongxitang both started their gongs.
At the end of the third quarter, the banquet is set up.
Sister Feng was dressed in a ginger red shirt embroidered with peonies in gold silk, and she wore a five-phoenix pearl hairpin on her head. Pearls the size of lotus seeds hung tremblingly between her eyebrows.
This time, Zhang's family was very respectful to the in-laws. The old lady of the Zhang family brought Mrs. Zhang, two young mistresses, and two young ladies to the door together. This was the first time the Zhang family visited after the death of the Zhang family.
Mother Jia was very enthusiastic and shouted from afar: "My wife, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still so strong and healthy, you have become an old fairy!"
The old lady of the Zhang family is also eloquent: "My wife, you have a lot of children and grandchildren who are willing to make progress, so just wait and see how you can become a rich and unparalleled ancestor!"
Jia Mu said with a smile: "This relationship is good, I will lend you a good word!"
The aunt of the Zhang family took a quick look and saw that the two prodigals of the Xing family and the Wang family were not there, and there was only one sister Feng left. Mother, you still don’t believe the people outside talking nonsense, look, this Lian’s daughter-in-law is not in good condition, how can she look poisoned?”
Mother Jia's face froze when she heard the words, and when she wanted to distinguish, she was interrupted by Mrs. Zhang.
She smiled at Jia's mother: "You don't know, old lady, our old lady has been very anxious at home these days, and she said, how good is this? Your aunt and grandma only have Lian'er left. He My daughter-in-law was murdered, if it can't be cured, wouldn't your aunt have no grandchildren all her life? In the future, she won't even have a paper money, wouldn't she be desolate underground?"
Jia Mu's complexion became darker and darker, and she became more and more unable to hold on.
The old lady of the Zhang family pretended not to know, and smiled at Jiamu: "It's also because I'm always obsessed, so I shouldn't think about it. Who is the old lady in-law? She is a daughter of the Hou family. She has a clear eye and a heart." Hui, generous and dignified, with profound blessings, how can you tolerate this kind of thing happening at home? Do you think so, wife?"
Mother Jia was ashamed by them in front of her, her face was flushed, but she couldn't turn her face back to refute, and she even agreed with a good word: "This is natural, and children are a major issue for the Xing family. How can it be ignored? In-laws, wives, don't listen to villains. Say it!"
The old lady of the Zhang family let out a lot of resentment today, her heart was smooth, and then she smiled and grabbed Jia Mu's hand: "Oh, look at me, what are you talking about on such a festive day today? Let's go, let's go!" Let's go to the theater together!"
It was the first time that Sister Feng saw Jia Mu being run over like this, and she immediately understood why Jia Mu didn't want to see her dead mother-in-law.The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of this family are the most eloquent.The two swords matched each other tacitly, and they played ironic tricks with one hand, which made Jiamu speechless when she was flattered.
Jia Lian entertained guests in the Rongxi Hall again, pulling Jia Zhen to help invite wine, and toasted with relatives from all walks of life.
Although it was a small banquet today, because Jia Lian was the only junior after Jia Jing who took the imperial examination, relatives, neighbors and colleagues moved together, and there were ten tables full of male guests, which was an unprecedented grand occasion.
Jia Sheqing's birthday has never been so complete.
In front of all relatives and friends, Jia Zhen tried her best to show that his brotherhood with Jia Lian was better than others, and rushed to block the wine for Jia Lian, but Jia Zhen was already dizzy after drinking at the fourth table, and Jia Zhen hadn't opened yet at the fifth table The drink has been poured.
Jia Lian sent someone to send Jia Zhen to rest, and ordered Jia Rong to take care of her father, and took the opportunity to remove Jia Rong from everyone's eyes.
Jia Zhen was drunk, and Jia Lian was left alone to support him. Before the ten tables were finished, Jia Lian was also drunk and went home in a foggy state.
But he said that Jia Lian was too drunk and was sent home. In fact, he was only half drunk. To Jia Lian, this little drunk was nothing at all.
Jia Lian just took the opportunity to go home and wait for the news of Jia Rong's resignation.If there is an accident about the divorce, he can make up for it at any time and take care of Jia Rong.
Afterwards, Jia Lian sneaked into Meng Po Zhai's study room, waiting anxiously for the news. In the middle of the night, Zhao'er disappeared.
Fortunately, Zhao'er sent back good news.
Jia Rong had successfully withdrawn the marriage, took back the Geng Tie and tore it up. After that, Jia Rong successfully reunited with Liu Xianglian, and the two boarded the big ship to Tongzhou together, pretending to be heading to Jiangnan.
In fact, Liu Xianglian has already bought off the owner of the ship, and at midnight today, the two of them will quietly disembark in a small boat when there is no one around, and then take the hired carriage to Huguang tomorrow morning.
Zhao'er said: "The little one has been waiting for Uncle Xiaorong's boat to start before rushing to Changping to deliver the letter."
"What letter?" Jia Lian frowned. Didn't this happen in the deduction?
Zhao'er said: "Uncle Liu meant to ask Uncle Xiaorong to write a letter to leave and send it back in three days. He didn't believe others, so he had to ask Master Guan Shan to handle it himself. The little one came back late, if it wasn't for the little one There is a warrant from the second master, I'm afraid I'm going to spend the night in prison."
"Xiao Liu is good at it!"
Guan Shan sent a letter. Based on his scouting methods of entering and leaving the enemy camp, no one could figure out where he came from.
Jia Lian was very happy, Guan Shan was really the right person to invite.
"You are doing well, go rest."
Two months after Jia Lian was reborn, he successfully disrupted the marriage between the Qin and Jia houses, that is, successfully separated the Rong and Ning houses from the chariot of the loyal prince's son and party.
This is the beginning of the road to success.
Jia Lian's restless heart finally settled down. Regardless of whether the two houses can be successfully preserved in the end, at least, Jia Rong will no longer be under the control of his father, and die in humiliation.
Thinking of this, Jia Lian was very excited.
Go home, drink by yourself, pour down a whole jar of Nurhong, smash the wine jar, giggle a few times, then feel free and fall asleep drunk.
The next day, Jia Lian only woke up when the sun was three poles high.
Today, Jia Amnesty paid for the banquet to entertain the relatives of the Rong Mansion's family, that is, the Jia family members who are attached to the Rong Mansion.
For example, the sixth old master Jia Dairu is a descendant of the old sixth house of the Jia family, and Jia Huang, Jia Qin, and Jia Chang who live in the back street are the descendants of Jia Daishan's fourth uncle and belong to the old fourth house.
Jia Qiong, Jia Chen, Jia Lin, and Jia Yun, like Jia Qiang, are the great-great-grandsons of the Rongguo Mansion and the direct descendants of Rongguo Duke.Their grandfather and Jia Daishan were brothers.They are all from the same family who have not left the five prefectures.
These family members are all coming to the door today.
The banquet in the mansion has already been set up, and the stage has already started. It can be said that everything is ready, except that Jia Lian, the protagonist of today's banquet, is hungover and has not gotten up yet.
Because Jia Lian had to welcome the old masters of his family into the mansion, Ping'er was ordered to wait for Jia Lian.
But he said that Ping'er was tidying up Jia Lian's clothes here, and was going to greet some of his grandfathers at the Chuihua Gate. At this moment, he suddenly heard a commotion outside, but it was Youshi, the grandma of Dongfu, who came home with Sister Feng.
Youshi was sobbing all the way in with tears on his face, but he was very surprised to see Jia Lian, so he hurriedly turned his back and wiped away his tears silently.
Jia Lian couldn't help saluting and asked, "Hello, sister-in-law Zhen, what's the matter?"
Sister Feng ordered Ping'er to fetch water to serve, and at the same time put out her rouge powder and asked someone to serve Youshi, but she pulled Jia Lian aside and said, "Rong'er, a monkey boy, has withdrawn from the Qin family's marriage privately, and she also ran away! "
But this morning, Jia Zhen and his wife from the Eastern Mansion had just left the mansion, and they wanted to come here for a drink, but they saw Qin Keqing's father, Qin Ye, coming and scolded Jia Zhen and his wife: "Since you despise us The Qin family is a small family, if you want to marry that rich and noble daughter, why bother to provoke us?"
Qin Ye was full of resentment, spat on Jia Zhen face to face, and stretched out his hand to ask Jia Zhen for Geng Tie: "Your young master has already taken his own Geng Tie and tore it up. You return my girl Geng Tie, and the friendship between our two families will be severed from now on!"
After careful questioning, I found out that yesterday, Jia Rong went to Qin's house in private to withdraw from Qin Keqing face to face, saying that he was a son of a wealthy family and that he would marry a well-matched noble daughter as his wife, and tore up the Geng post on the spot.It is clear that Jia Qin has nothing to do with him.
Jia Zhen was so angry that she clamored to arrest Jia Rong and go to Qin's house to apologize, but she searched all over Ningguo Mansion and found no trace of Jia Rong. She found Jia Rong's residence, but the bed was cold, and Jia Rong didn't go back to the house last night.
The husband and wife hurried across the mansion to inquire, and no one saw Jia Rong in the whole mansion.
A living person disappeared for no reason, and no one in the house knew about it. Jia Zhen felt ashamed, and suddenly became angry. She pulled Youshi and slapped You Shi twice loudly: "It's a good family!"
Youshi's hair was disheveled and his face was red and swollen. If Sister Feng hadn't stopped him, Youshi might have been kicked a few more times.
Jia Lian felt guilty when he heard the words, thinking that a beating of You Shi could save his life, Jia Lian thought it was worth it.It's just that Youshi was implicated by himself in the end, because he said: "It's my father's fault, my sister-in-law's beating is not for nothing, I'm going to seek justice for my sister-in-law."
But You Shi shook his hand: "Forget it, forget it, your elder brother is also in a hurry, it's all a fool like Rong'er, what's wrong with the daughter of the Qin family, he actually despises her."
Sister Feng was very surprised: "I know this kid Rong'er, Xun Lili is the most timid and afraid of getting into trouble, when I saw him, I was like avoiding cats and mice, so this time he is so bold?"
Youshi was taken aback when he heard the words: "Yes, I also find it strange, it's like who borrowed the courage, so I'm not afraid that my father will beat him to death?"
Sister Feng frowned: "According to me, it should be done,"
Ping'er knew what Sister Feng was going to say, and hurriedly tugged at her sleeve: "Grandma Zhen is very sad, please persuade her."
While talking, Ping'er secretly winked, suggesting that Sister Feng should not add fuel to the flames with violent words.
These days, Jia Lian suddenly got into a hot fight with Jia Rong, Jia Yun, and Jia Qiang. Ping'er had long thought that he acted suspiciously.
Seeing Ping'er's movements, Jia Lian felt that Ping'er was going to become a fine girl.
Youshi was sad at this moment, and didn't find out that Sister Feng's master and servant had a lawsuit.
Jia Lian can't let Ping'er challenge You Shi's IQ, once You Shi wakes up, Bao Buqi guesses him, because of a smile, he interjects: "It's hard to say, young Mu Ai, Rong'er has been going to Shichahaina a lot in ten days. While wandering around, one must know that the girls in Shichahai are extraordinary, they are the top ladies of the family, and they are more relaxed than the ladies of the family, seducing those young masters and gentry, flocking to them, willing to spend a lot of money, just to seduce them for one night! "
You Shi blushed when she heard this, she knew that Jia Zhen and Jia Rong's father and son had been to Shichahai more than once to moleste prostitutes, she knew about this but she didn't dare to take care of it, and she didn't bother to take care of it.
Everyone in the world said that this is just a man's play, and it can't be taken seriously.
Yoshi is no exception.
Now that Jia Lian was talking about this, Youshi was secretly worried, could it be that this idiot Jia Rong really got his eyes covered in shit, and fell in love with those half-open doors?
This can't be done!
You Shi panicked all of a sudden: "Yindie, Yindie, hurry up and tell the uncle, let the boys go to Shichahai to look for it!"
Jia Lian glared at Sister Feng's Ping'er in the air, and warned them to be more honest. It wasn't until Ping'er and Sister Feng both bowed their heads in embarrassment that Jia Lian let them go. There are people coming and going at the door, so it's not appropriate for my sister-in-law to go, so I'll go find my elder brother."
Youshi was overjoyed when he heard the words, and thanked Jia Lian a thousand times: "It's so kind, today is a good day for uncle."
But he didn't know that all of what happened today was caused by Jia Lian, the behind-the-scenes pusher.
Here, Sister Feng was pinched by Ping'er and stared at by Jia Lian, her heart suddenly became clear, and all the ambiguities before were now clear.
Sister Feng was very surprised. She didn't know why Jia Lian wanted to oppose Jia Zhen, but she remembered Jia Lian's exhortation and secretly decided to erase all clues related to the trip, and she must not reveal the slightest bit, otherwise, Jia Zhen would not be a good friend.
Feeling guilty, Sister Feng thought that Jia Lian had caused You Shi to be beaten, so she was extraordinarily attentive to her. She found her latest tailor-made clothes for You Shi to wear, and at the same time poured her latest blood-enriching black hair tea face to You Shi. Try something new.
When Youshi finished getting familiar with dressing, Sister Feng comforted her with Ping'er and blamed Jia Zhen by the way.
Ping'er pulled Youshi to comfort him and said, "According to me, this kind of wife-beating man is the most inhuman."
Sister Feng nodded in agreement: "Pinger's words are very true. Brother Zhen is really not a thing. My sister-in-law has been respecting the old and raising the children for him, taking care of the housework, and letting him spend time and wine outside. How can I feel sorry for him? My own son has not been taught well, and in the end, beating his wife is really a trick to beat the white-eyed wolf."
You Shi was full of grievances but was turned off by them, feeling extremely sad.Are you going to scold your husband together?
Seeing her in a daze, Sister Feng would have misunderstood her, thinking that she was safe and sad, and hurriedly comforted her: "Since he is cruel, you don't want to tease him these few days, just live here, and we will be together at night and stay together during the day. Wouldn't it be nice to go around the garden with the old lady and play cards and play tricks?"
Youshi has no natal family, no bosom sisters, no one has ever cared about her so much, and had a detailed talk with her. Youshi was so moved by Sister Feng's words, he hugged Sister Feng and called his sister loudly.
Sister Feng brought her tenderness to the extreme, and seduced You Shi to swear to her that they would become flesh and blood relatives from then on.
Turning around, he said that Jia Lian went straight to the Chuihua Gate, waited for a while, and greeted several uncles and elders to sit down in the mansion, and then confessed: "Rong'er in Dongfu was dissatisfied with the Qin family's marriage, and even tore up Geng's post and ran away from home. I'm not in the mood to drink, I have to help Brother Zhen find it, and comfort Brother Zhen."
Jia Dairu couldn't help scolding Rong'er when he heard the words: "This wicked person, doesn't he know that his parents' orders must not be disobeyed? Hey, it's all my fault. I've been slack in my supervision. Hey, I'm sorry for my nephew Jia Jing. "
Every time Jia Dairu talked about Jia Jing's gold-lettered signboard, he would resign and dance, and Jia Lian and Jia Rong became cannon fodder for the foil, and Jia Lian was tortured by him for countless times. Goodbye.
"Grandfathers sit wide, nephews and grandchildren will come back as soon as they go!" Then, without waiting for the masters to react, he rubbed the soles of his feet with oil and slipped away!
Here, Jia Lian rode out of Rongning Street, just as Jia Zhen and Lai Sheng came out of the mansion with a group of servants.
Seeing this, Jia Lian hurried forward to greet Jia Zhen. Afterwards, Jia Lian whispered to You Shi: "Sister-in-law You is worried that Rong'er will be trapped in Shichahai, so why don't we go to Shichahai to have a look, but I don't like this Shichahai. Familiar, does Big Brother Zhen know which house Rong'er likes to hang out in ten days?"
When Jia Zhen heard this, her face turned purple and she was very embarrassed.
He also thought that You Shi's worries were not unreasonable, and now looking for Rong'er was a serious matter, so he had no choice but to put down his face.
With a face full of shame, Jia Zhen bowed directly to Jia Lian and said, "Oh, it's all to blame for this sensible bastard who ruined Brother Lian's celebration banquet. It's already embarrassing for my brother, why should I tire my brother any longer? Lian's second brother should go back, how many guests are waiting in the mansion, Shichahai is enough for me to go."
When Jia Lian heard the words, she pretended to be flirtatious: "What are you talking about? Although Rong'er is a nephew, Sister Feng and I love him like a son. You don't know. Now that his whereabouts are unknown, why don't you tell me to go back to eat, drink and have fun? If so, is it still a person?"
Jia Lian said that he was just and strict. At this time, he had to be with Jia Zhen. First, to grasp Jia Zhen's movements, he could come up with a bad idea at a critical moment to drag him down and buy Jia Rong more time to escape.Second, it's also good to clear up your suspicions.
If the nephew who has always been close to him disappears, but he can eat, drink and watch the theater with peace of mind, not to mention the family members, even outsiders with two surnames will suspect him.
Jia Zhen was moved by Jia Lian's words, and her face was full of shame: "It's because my brother usually doesn't teach well, and now I'm burdening my brother!"
Jia Lian is not guilty here, he accepts it calmly, and he is not ashamed: "Brothers of the same flesh and blood, everything should be done, and it is very tiring to say it!"
When they arrived in Shichahai, Jia Zhen asked several secret doors one by one, and everyone agreed that they had never seen Master Rong.
Jia Lian proposed to enter the door to search, but was rejected. He was suddenly dissatisfied and decided to go in to search in person, and almost got into a fight with someone.
Jia Zhen stopped Jia Lian: "Don't go, they dare not lie in front of me, it must be that Rong'er is not here, it is useless to go in."
Jia Lian pretended to be angry: "What's so great, let's see what can be done, why can't outsiders come in and out casually, since the door is half-open, and you are so hypocritical, you are a lady of your own family!"
Jia Zhen was anxious and wanted to find Jia Rong as soon as possible so that they could marry the Qin family. She didn't want to make troubles, fearing that Jia Lian would not give in and waste time, so she turned to comfort Jia Lian: "What are you doing with them? It’s nothing to be angry with them. Let’s go, let’s look for a few teahouses, this little brat likes to pretend to be a scholar, likes to be arty, maybe he just hides in that teahouse and co-authors with those literati and poets!”
Jia Lianming knew that Jia Rong was not there, but she echoed her voice: "Oh, there is such a thing, it's very possible, you should take a look!"
Therefore, everyone in the Ning Mansion split up and swept up the famous teahouses and restaurants on the ground in Kyoto one by one.
As a result, the tea house said that Jia Rong did serve wine here a few days ago, drinking and composing poems with people, answering poems, but today it is not Jia Rong's host, and no one has seen it.
Wufenglou is even more amazing, saying that at noon yesterday, Jia Rong was still bidding for a nobleman here, but in the end he missed the bid and left in a rage.
Comb up the groom?
Jia Zhen was completely dumbfounded. He never thought that Jia Rong would be so bold that she would dare to keep a prostitute at such a young age.
Jia Zhen really has all kinds of tastes in her heart, which is hard to express.
At this moment, Jia Lian turned to comfort Jia Zhen: "Children, who doesn't have a moment of frivolity? Fortunately, it didn't happen."
Jia Zhen had no choice but to admit it.
He himself is not upright, no one is to blame!
For a while, the brothers comforted each other and searched for a whole day, but there was no useful information at all.
Jia Rong's whole dragon can't see the head but see the end, there are traces of him everywhere, and no one is seen everywhere.
At dusk, the Jia Lian brothers returned disappointed.
Here, Jia Zhen is very grateful to Jia Lian. Jia Lian can't help saying modestly, and then they leave and go home.
When Jia Lian returned home, he first arranged for a servant to deliver a food box to Jia Zhen, and then he wandered back home.
Sister Feng has all the food and wine here, and I have been waiting for him for a long time.
When Jia Lian saw it, she was so happy that she went to the kang happily, and the husband and wife sat opposite each other.
The couple's eyebrows were entangled, they pushed and changed glasses, they were full of wine and food, and they were full of affection.When I was young, I packed up and went to bed to rest, and the two of them stood side by side and held hands and chatted privately.
Sister Feng asked softly: "Second Master, why do you bother to play tricks on Big Brother Zhen? According to me, although this marriage is not well-off, the important thing is that the talent is rare!"
Regardless of past life or present life, Sister Feng valued Qin Keqing very much.
Jia Lian snorted coldly when he heard the words: "Hehe, if he divorces Mrs. You and marries Mrs. Qin himself, I will admire him."
What is this nonsense?
Sister Feng was taken aback, her hands and feet were so frightened that her hands and feet went limp. It is not a good reputation for a rich family to spread such things.
She fit on Jia Lian's body and stared blankly at her phoenix eyes: "Second Master, you, what are you talking about? What does Rong'er have to do with Big Brother Zhen that he has a wife?"
With a smirk on her face, Jia Lian stretched out her hand to hug Sister Feng, turned over and fell asleep: "It has nothing to do with us, a spring night is worth a thousand gold, and the nectar of one's stamen branches can't be exhausted, so others will get out of the wall!"
The next day, Jia Lian was full all night and was very happy.
In the morning, Jia Lian went to Dongfu to inquire about the news.
Jia Zhen has already dispatched four teams to follow her around, and she is sitting at home, just waiting for the news to come back so that he can leave Beijing on leave.
When Jia Lian heard this, she couldn't help worrying that Jia Rong would be caught.
Fortunately, the four people did not send any news back.
Jia Lian secretly admired Liu Xianglian, the ability to erase traces is really brilliant.Weird heard in his previous life that he had been a grand thief, robbed several evil gentry and bullies, dispersed their assets, and still made a living on the streets.
The policemen of Six Doors chased the thieves all over the world, but they were exhausted to death in vain.
This is all a joke from a previous life.
Back to Brother Jia Lian, so and so, day after day, three days passed, and there was still no news.
So far, Jia Zhen has given up hope of finding Jia Rong, but she has not given up her search.So I discussed with Jia Lian, and planned to send someone to Jiangnan tomorrow to entrust Aunt Lin Ruhai
Jia Lian was so angry that he beat his hands: "Although it is not allowed, it is not far away!" He almost drove Wang out of Rongxi Hall, but the result fell short. How could Jia Lian not hate it.
Sister Feng immediately raised her willow eyebrows, and her phoenix eyes were filled with anger. She always thought that her fence was firmly established, and she didn't want to become a house thief. If you dare to betray the Lord, see if I expose her!"
Jia Lian let out a long sigh, and spread his hands helplessly: "Hey, it's as simple as that. Let me tell you, lead the old lady on this side, and the old lady on the other side, who are you to expose!"
Sister Feng is a fine character, upon hearing this, she knew that the entire big house had been played by Jia Mu, and that her own house had also been buried with spies to repay the gods, thinking of Jia Mu's kindness in ten days, but behind her In this way, Sister Feng didn't know which face to believe.
I dare not delve into this matter, I am terrified to think about it carefully.
Sister Feng felt that the hairs all over her body were standing on end, and she took a breath for a moment of toothache: "Who the hell? Since there is such a person, why did they wait until such a time to show up?"
Although Sister Feng thinks she's acting in secret, it's hard to guard against family thieves, who can keep it!
Jia Lian also had lingering fears: "Fortunately, this nail was planted not long ago, and it won't be a good thing. Otherwise, we might steal the chicken this time and lose everything!"
Sister Feng is very fortunate, thanks to Jia's mother who underestimated Jia Lian in the past, otherwise it would be really dangerous.But he was not convinced in the end, he frowned and said, "Is that the way to go?"
Jia Lian was not reconciled either, but the words of filial piety came first: "The old lady can't move at the moment. Fortunately, the girl is only passing on the message at the second door. You just need to hang her up. I will send the message to the old lady. What about her?" Enough is enough for the day."
That night, Jia Lian begged to see his father, Jia Amnesty, but no one knew what the father and son had said.
This is a later story, let alone mention it.
Let's talk about the celebration dinner that Jia's mother organized this day in order to squeeze the feelings of her children and grandchildren, but under Jia Amnesty's disturbance, she lost the festiveness it should have had.
Mother Jia was threatened by her eldest son, Jia She, and had to compromise, agreeing to celebrate Jia Lian's success with a banquet in Rongxi Hall. Although she had plenty of money, she couldn't swallow it.As a result, I felt very unhappy, and I was less talkative during the banquet, and lost the old humor.
Sister Feng also lost the mind to laugh and laugh because she saw through the bloody wrist behind Jia Mu's kindness.For a while, the atmosphere of the banquet was very dignified.
With Jia Amnesty absent, Jia Zheng has the highest status among all the men. Seeing that the usual dandy changed his ways and became proud, his son Zhu Er, who was proud of himself, died young, he felt very uncomfortable.
However, no matter how unhappy he was in his heart, he couldn't say it out loud. In order to show his tolerance, Jia Zheng bit the bullet and praised Jia Lian several times. Afterwards, he drank a few cups of stuffy wine, his ears were hot, his blood was hot, and his last bit of reason disappeared. Jia Zheng immediately revealed his true face, his expression suddenly became severe, and his cold eyes wandered around, making everyone feel poked.
Baoyu was teaching Jia Lan how to taste wine in a low voice here, when Jia Zheng saw that he was not in a good mood, and just venting his anger, he opened his mouth and scolded: "Nie Zhan, look at your cowardice, you are worthy of teaching others? Shit, I am ashamed to death Come on, get out of here quickly!"
Jia Zheng had a sudden attack, Baoyu stood stunned, terrified, at a loss, Jia Huan, Jia Cong and Jia Lan were even worse, all of them were so frightened that they avoided cats and mice, wishing to hide under the table.
Jia Lian hated him already, and for Jia Mu's sake, he resisted dealing with him, but unexpectedly Jia Zheng was so frustrated, disgusted in his heart, he pursed his mouth tightly and kept silent, buried his head in playing with the wine cup, and the whole banquet was silent.
When Jia's mother saw Jia Zheng disturbing the situation, she was immediately upset.
Just as Jia Amnesty held down the other end, Jia Zheng came to make fun again. Jia's mother was very afraid that Jia Lian would turn his face, and was very angry at Jia Zheng's inappropriateness: "Today is Lian'er's celebration banquet. What are you doing with your red nose and green eyebrows?"
Jia Zheng was not as good as Jia She, who was scolded since he was a child, and his cultivation was rough and fleshy. It was the first time he was scolded by Jia's mother in public. Overwhelmed by alcohol, I ate a few more glasses in joy, but I couldn't control it for a while, which disturbed the old lady's mood!"
Mother Jia snorted coldly.
Jia Zheng's face became more and more disgraced, and he was too drunk to drink, so he resigned in desperation.
As soon as Jia Zheng left, Baoyu Jiahuan and Jia Cong came alive under the comfort of his mother.When Jia's mother scolded Jia Zheng, she felt better, so she greeted her grandchildren to kiss Jia Lian.
After hearing this, Baoyu came forward to toast Jia Lian, just talking about the success of the toad palace.
Jia Lian's interest was defeated by Jia Zheng, so he was not in the mood, he was able to deal with it, and he didn't say much.
The family dinner carefully planned by Jia's mother ended without embarrassment.
Because Jia Amnesty was disgusted with Jia's mother's partiality, he deliberately released the wind and wanted to have a banquet in the east courtyard to celebrate Jia Lian.
Once this is done, it will be tantamount to announcing the privacy of the struggle between the two houses of Rongguo Mansion to the public.
Of course, Mother Jia didn't allow such a joke to happen, so she had no choice but to obey Jia Amnesty's wishes and spend money and effort to hold a banquet in the Rongqing Hall to entertain the guests who came to celebrate, creating the illusion that the brothers in Rongfu were still in harmony, so as to cover up the big room. The fact of being suppressed.
Originally, Mother Jia wanted to ease the relationship between the two families, and she thought about letting Wang and Sister Feng entertain the female guests of various families in Rongqing Hall together.
Clinker, Mrs. Wang doesn't know how to flatter her.Because of jealousy and because she was ashamed to meet her natal sister-in-law, she didn't want to show up, so she made a lot of rhetoric and rejected Jiamu: "Actually, the old lady should not shirk sending her daughter-in-law, but the daughter-in-law is always not very straightforward, so Minger."
Mother Jia saw that she didn't know how to flatter her, and she dared to play smart in front of her. She was very disgusted and said, "That's just right. Tomorrow, the elder will arrange for the eldest wife to go to the temple on behalf of the eldest house to pray for your old father. The second bedroom will have a prayer." Go ahead."
The so-called kneeling scriptures to repay the vow is that Jia Daishan made a vow after Jia Zhu was selected as a scholar, thinking that the advancement of his descendants is the protection of the ancestors, so he vowed that in the future, if any descendants are selected, they will do seven-day rituals to reward their ancestors.
Now that Jia Lian is selected as a scholar, the Rongfu should go to the temple to kneel and pray for Jia Daishan.
In the past, such things as paying gods to worship ancestors and kneeling scriptures to fulfill vows were usually performed by the young masters in the mansion, but now the Xing family and the Wang family offended the people in power at the same time, so they had to kneel to the scriptures.
Wang has always thought highly of herself, so she is not willing to kneel down for Jia Lian, who is a waste in her eyes.
Helplessly, as a mother-in-law, Jia's mother could have suppressed the Wang family, and Jia's mother moved out the last wish of the deceased husband. This is a matter of fairness and family unity.
If Wang's disobedience is disobedience, there are seven crimes.
Mrs. Wang was involved in the old case of theft. She should have divorced her wife long ago. She only managed to keep her position as the second wife because of Jia Mu's love and protection. How dare she disobey Jia Mu's order?
The Wang family has become an abandoned son in the Wang family, and Jia Yuanchun is not well-known in the palace. The only thing he can rely on is Jia's mother's support.
Once Jia's mother turned her back and ignored her, Dafang could knock her into the dust with a backhand.
As I said, it's not a fart for the Wang family to leave Jia's mother's favor now!
Wang felt resentful, but had no choice but to obediently pack her luggage and head to the temple.
Mrs. Xing arrived early, and she was surprised to see Mrs. Wang also came to kneel for sutras. She was immediately in a good mood. After the previous depression was gone, she came forward to see each other with a smile, and took the opportunity to provoke and sneered: "Oh, I thought I was the only one in this mansion who didn't have children. Those who have no natal family are not welcomed by their mother-in-law, and are sent to the temple. The second wife is a rich and noble daughter, and has always been the old lady's treasure. gone?"
Can Mrs. Wang say that she was not disliked by Jia Mu, and the reason why she came here was because she secretly poisoned Sister Feng, so she was ashamed to see the two sisters-in-law of the Wang family.
Obviously, Mrs. Wang can't expose her ugliness!
No matter how angry Wang is, she can only hold her nose to be ridiculed by her, and dare not say a word.
The Xing family was originally an ignorant villain, once they gained power, they would inevitably be rampant, and the words became more and more rustic.
Because when the Wang family was in high spirits, she used to laugh at running on the Xing family, saying that in order to keep her position as a wife, she had to hunt for Jia Xie and take concubines.
At that time, the Xing family couldn't afford to offend the Wang family and had to endure it. Now the Xing family can see that the Wang family's status is not as good as before, otherwise they should have a banquet in the mansion, and would not come here to kneel.
Therefore, Xing mentioned the origin of Aunt Zhao and Tanchun, but Tanchun was protected by Jia's mother.
It was Wang's lifelong hatred that Zhao Bushi, the goblin, was not killed at the beginning, and Wang was suddenly so angry that he was half dead.
Mrs. Xing didn't let it go, and said that Jia Amnesty doted on his concubine again, and only rested in the study room every day, and always went to the main room on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. For a few months, like a husband and wife, Wang's rich and noble wife couldn't even touch the hem of her husband's robe.
In order to compete for favor, Mrs. Wang did not know how many spiritual herbs and medicines she took. She was pregnant with Baoyu in her thirties and gave birth to a child at an advanced age. She almost died of blood collapse and her body was ruined. With face and affection, I watched Aunt Zhao take the top spot.
It can be said that the beauty is no longer old.
This is the most humiliating experience in Wang's life, but it was used by this stupid woman as Xing to grind her teeth.
Wang gritted her teeth in hatred and almost vomited blood. She endured the humiliation and went back to the meditation room, smashing the teacup all over the floor: "The vicious woman of Xing, you bullied me too much. If I gain power in the future, I will definitely crush you!"
Zhou Rui's family died, and there were two young Jin Chuan and Caixia left in front of Wang, who were so frightened that they dared not persuade her at all, but it was the accompanying daughter-in-law, Wang Dengxin, who saw that her face was not right, so she boldly stepped forward to comfort her: "Madam, Why are you angry with her, she is called Yu, she knows the way of human relations and motherly affection?"
These words hit her heart, Wang's heart was full of joy, and then she breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, you are right, she is called Yu, a beast, what do people care about with animals, ha, ha, ha, ha!"
Mrs. Wang's miserable smile was too creepy, Mrs. Xing was frightened by her, and she never provoked Mrs. Wang again.
Jia's mother sent Wang away, and specially invited Jia She and his son to discuss. It was agreed to have a banquet for the guests in Rongqing hall and a banquet for male guests in Rongxi hall.Dongyuan Garden has a beautiful scenery, and several yards have been cleaned up as a place for relatives to retreat.
Jia's mother is willing to show face for the eldest son, and Jia Amnesty will not be so stupid as to disturb her son's celebration banquet.Instead, they reached an agreement in two strokes, and the mother and son were in harmony.
Jia Mu is responsible for the financing of the banquet on this day, and the list of banquet guests is drawn up by Jia Amnesty.
Jia Amnesty's dandyism was fully revealed, he drew up a list and threw it to Jia Lian casually, never mind.He got Jia's mother out and took out the money to wipe his face, and he had achieved his goal, and he also helped Jia Lian earn enough face, so he went home to drink a little wine.
Jia Lian was in charge of sending out the invitations. Fortunately, Sister Feng had already prepared for the Spring Festival. Jia Lian checked it carefully, made some additions, and then added the date to the invitations written for the Spring Festival, and that was it.
The clumsy work of inviting theatrical troupe and building the stage was all arranged by Lai Da himself.
Sister Feng is in charge of the internal affairs, arranging where to hold the banquet, where to retreat, etc., then draws up the menu, determines the banquet drinks, tea soup, and tableware for the banquet.
All the arrangements have been made, and the ancestors should be asked to review them one by one. After Jia's mother agrees, they will be handed over to Guan Shi's daughter-in-law to handle them separately.
All the specific affairs were arranged by Sister Feng, from the early morning when she asked Mother Jia to press the button, she was busy until she got the final list of guests in the afternoon, and Sister Feng specially prepared [-]% of the things for spare.
This busy work lasted until dusk, when Sister Feng was satisfied.
The next day, April nineteenth.
At the beginning of the day, there was a hustle and bustle of carriages and horses driving on Rongning Street, and relatives and friends from all walks of life came to the door one after another.
At the second quarter of the first lunar month, the two troupes of Rongqingtang and Rongxitang both started their gongs.
At the end of the third quarter, the banquet is set up.
Sister Feng was dressed in a ginger red shirt embroidered with peonies in gold silk, and she wore a five-phoenix pearl hairpin on her head. Pearls the size of lotus seeds hung tremblingly between her eyebrows.
This time, Zhang's family was very respectful to the in-laws. The old lady of the Zhang family brought Mrs. Zhang, two young mistresses, and two young ladies to the door together. This was the first time the Zhang family visited after the death of the Zhang family.
Mother Jia was very enthusiastic and shouted from afar: "My wife, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still so strong and healthy, you have become an old fairy!"
The old lady of the Zhang family is also eloquent: "My wife, you have a lot of children and grandchildren who are willing to make progress, so just wait and see how you can become a rich and unparalleled ancestor!"
Jia Mu said with a smile: "This relationship is good, I will lend you a good word!"
The aunt of the Zhang family took a quick look and saw that the two prodigals of the Xing family and the Wang family were not there, and there was only one sister Feng left. Mother, you still don’t believe the people outside talking nonsense, look, this Lian’s daughter-in-law is not in good condition, how can she look poisoned?”
Mother Jia's face froze when she heard the words, and when she wanted to distinguish, she was interrupted by Mrs. Zhang.
She smiled at Jia's mother: "You don't know, old lady, our old lady has been very anxious at home these days, and she said, how good is this? Your aunt and grandma only have Lian'er left. He My daughter-in-law was murdered, if it can't be cured, wouldn't your aunt have no grandchildren all her life? In the future, she won't even have a paper money, wouldn't she be desolate underground?"
Jia Mu's complexion became darker and darker, and she became more and more unable to hold on.
The old lady of the Zhang family pretended not to know, and smiled at Jiamu: "It's also because I'm always obsessed, so I shouldn't think about it. Who is the old lady in-law? She is a daughter of the Hou family. She has a clear eye and a heart." Hui, generous and dignified, with profound blessings, how can you tolerate this kind of thing happening at home? Do you think so, wife?"
Mother Jia was ashamed by them in front of her, her face was flushed, but she couldn't turn her face back to refute, and she even agreed with a good word: "This is natural, and children are a major issue for the Xing family. How can it be ignored? In-laws, wives, don't listen to villains. Say it!"
The old lady of the Zhang family let out a lot of resentment today, her heart was smooth, and then she smiled and grabbed Jia Mu's hand: "Oh, look at me, what are you talking about on such a festive day today? Let's go, let's go!" Let's go to the theater together!"
It was the first time that Sister Feng saw Jia Mu being run over like this, and she immediately understood why Jia Mu didn't want to see her dead mother-in-law.The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of this family are the most eloquent.The two swords matched each other tacitly, and they played ironic tricks with one hand, which made Jiamu speechless when she was flattered.
Jia Lian entertained guests in the Rongxi Hall again, pulling Jia Zhen to help invite wine, and toasted with relatives from all walks of life.
Although it was a small banquet today, because Jia Lian was the only junior after Jia Jing who took the imperial examination, relatives, neighbors and colleagues moved together, and there were ten tables full of male guests, which was an unprecedented grand occasion.
Jia Sheqing's birthday has never been so complete.
In front of all relatives and friends, Jia Zhen tried her best to show that his brotherhood with Jia Lian was better than others, and rushed to block the wine for Jia Lian, but Jia Zhen was already dizzy after drinking at the fourth table, and Jia Zhen hadn't opened yet at the fifth table The drink has been poured.
Jia Lian sent someone to send Jia Zhen to rest, and ordered Jia Rong to take care of her father, and took the opportunity to remove Jia Rong from everyone's eyes.
Jia Zhen was drunk, and Jia Lian was left alone to support him. Before the ten tables were finished, Jia Lian was also drunk and went home in a foggy state.
But he said that Jia Lian was too drunk and was sent home. In fact, he was only half drunk. To Jia Lian, this little drunk was nothing at all.
Jia Lian just took the opportunity to go home and wait for the news of Jia Rong's resignation.If there is an accident about the divorce, he can make up for it at any time and take care of Jia Rong.
Afterwards, Jia Lian sneaked into Meng Po Zhai's study room, waiting anxiously for the news. In the middle of the night, Zhao'er disappeared.
Fortunately, Zhao'er sent back good news.
Jia Rong had successfully withdrawn the marriage, took back the Geng Tie and tore it up. After that, Jia Rong successfully reunited with Liu Xianglian, and the two boarded the big ship to Tongzhou together, pretending to be heading to Jiangnan.
In fact, Liu Xianglian has already bought off the owner of the ship, and at midnight today, the two of them will quietly disembark in a small boat when there is no one around, and then take the hired carriage to Huguang tomorrow morning.
Zhao'er said: "The little one has been waiting for Uncle Xiaorong's boat to start before rushing to Changping to deliver the letter."
"What letter?" Jia Lian frowned. Didn't this happen in the deduction?
Zhao'er said: "Uncle Liu meant to ask Uncle Xiaorong to write a letter to leave and send it back in three days. He didn't believe others, so he had to ask Master Guan Shan to handle it himself. The little one came back late, if it wasn't for the little one There is a warrant from the second master, I'm afraid I'm going to spend the night in prison."
"Xiao Liu is good at it!"
Guan Shan sent a letter. Based on his scouting methods of entering and leaving the enemy camp, no one could figure out where he came from.
Jia Lian was very happy, Guan Shan was really the right person to invite.
"You are doing well, go rest."
Two months after Jia Lian was reborn, he successfully disrupted the marriage between the Qin and Jia houses, that is, successfully separated the Rong and Ning houses from the chariot of the loyal prince's son and party.
This is the beginning of the road to success.
Jia Lian's restless heart finally settled down. Regardless of whether the two houses can be successfully preserved in the end, at least, Jia Rong will no longer be under the control of his father, and die in humiliation.
Thinking of this, Jia Lian was very excited.
Go home, drink by yourself, pour down a whole jar of Nurhong, smash the wine jar, giggle a few times, then feel free and fall asleep drunk.
The next day, Jia Lian only woke up when the sun was three poles high.
Today, Jia Amnesty paid for the banquet to entertain the relatives of the Rong Mansion's family, that is, the Jia family members who are attached to the Rong Mansion.
For example, the sixth old master Jia Dairu is a descendant of the old sixth house of the Jia family, and Jia Huang, Jia Qin, and Jia Chang who live in the back street are the descendants of Jia Daishan's fourth uncle and belong to the old fourth house.
Jia Qiong, Jia Chen, Jia Lin, and Jia Yun, like Jia Qiang, are the great-great-grandsons of the Rongguo Mansion and the direct descendants of Rongguo Duke.Their grandfather and Jia Daishan were brothers.They are all from the same family who have not left the five prefectures.
These family members are all coming to the door today.
The banquet in the mansion has already been set up, and the stage has already started. It can be said that everything is ready, except that Jia Lian, the protagonist of today's banquet, is hungover and has not gotten up yet.
Because Jia Lian had to welcome the old masters of his family into the mansion, Ping'er was ordered to wait for Jia Lian.
But he said that Ping'er was tidying up Jia Lian's clothes here, and was going to greet some of his grandfathers at the Chuihua Gate. At this moment, he suddenly heard a commotion outside, but it was Youshi, the grandma of Dongfu, who came home with Sister Feng.
Youshi was sobbing all the way in with tears on his face, but he was very surprised to see Jia Lian, so he hurriedly turned his back and wiped away his tears silently.
Jia Lian couldn't help saluting and asked, "Hello, sister-in-law Zhen, what's the matter?"
Sister Feng ordered Ping'er to fetch water to serve, and at the same time put out her rouge powder and asked someone to serve Youshi, but she pulled Jia Lian aside and said, "Rong'er, a monkey boy, has withdrawn from the Qin family's marriage privately, and she also ran away! "
But this morning, Jia Zhen and his wife from the Eastern Mansion had just left the mansion, and they wanted to come here for a drink, but they saw Qin Keqing's father, Qin Ye, coming and scolded Jia Zhen and his wife: "Since you despise us The Qin family is a small family, if you want to marry that rich and noble daughter, why bother to provoke us?"
Qin Ye was full of resentment, spat on Jia Zhen face to face, and stretched out his hand to ask Jia Zhen for Geng Tie: "Your young master has already taken his own Geng Tie and tore it up. You return my girl Geng Tie, and the friendship between our two families will be severed from now on!"
After careful questioning, I found out that yesterday, Jia Rong went to Qin's house in private to withdraw from Qin Keqing face to face, saying that he was a son of a wealthy family and that he would marry a well-matched noble daughter as his wife, and tore up the Geng post on the spot.It is clear that Jia Qin has nothing to do with him.
Jia Zhen was so angry that she clamored to arrest Jia Rong and go to Qin's house to apologize, but she searched all over Ningguo Mansion and found no trace of Jia Rong. She found Jia Rong's residence, but the bed was cold, and Jia Rong didn't go back to the house last night.
The husband and wife hurried across the mansion to inquire, and no one saw Jia Rong in the whole mansion.
A living person disappeared for no reason, and no one in the house knew about it. Jia Zhen felt ashamed, and suddenly became angry. She pulled Youshi and slapped You Shi twice loudly: "It's a good family!"
Youshi's hair was disheveled and his face was red and swollen. If Sister Feng hadn't stopped him, Youshi might have been kicked a few more times.
Jia Lian felt guilty when he heard the words, thinking that a beating of You Shi could save his life, Jia Lian thought it was worth it.It's just that Youshi was implicated by himself in the end, because he said: "It's my father's fault, my sister-in-law's beating is not for nothing, I'm going to seek justice for my sister-in-law."
But You Shi shook his hand: "Forget it, forget it, your elder brother is also in a hurry, it's all a fool like Rong'er, what's wrong with the daughter of the Qin family, he actually despises her."
Sister Feng was very surprised: "I know this kid Rong'er, Xun Lili is the most timid and afraid of getting into trouble, when I saw him, I was like avoiding cats and mice, so this time he is so bold?"
Youshi was taken aback when he heard the words: "Yes, I also find it strange, it's like who borrowed the courage, so I'm not afraid that my father will beat him to death?"
Sister Feng frowned: "According to me, it should be done,"
Ping'er knew what Sister Feng was going to say, and hurriedly tugged at her sleeve: "Grandma Zhen is very sad, please persuade her."
While talking, Ping'er secretly winked, suggesting that Sister Feng should not add fuel to the flames with violent words.
These days, Jia Lian suddenly got into a hot fight with Jia Rong, Jia Yun, and Jia Qiang. Ping'er had long thought that he acted suspiciously.
Seeing Ping'er's movements, Jia Lian felt that Ping'er was going to become a fine girl.
Youshi was sad at this moment, and didn't find out that Sister Feng's master and servant had a lawsuit.
Jia Lian can't let Ping'er challenge You Shi's IQ, once You Shi wakes up, Bao Buqi guesses him, because of a smile, he interjects: "It's hard to say, young Mu Ai, Rong'er has been going to Shichahaina a lot in ten days. While wandering around, one must know that the girls in Shichahai are extraordinary, they are the top ladies of the family, and they are more relaxed than the ladies of the family, seducing those young masters and gentry, flocking to them, willing to spend a lot of money, just to seduce them for one night! "
You Shi blushed when she heard this, she knew that Jia Zhen and Jia Rong's father and son had been to Shichahai more than once to moleste prostitutes, she knew about this but she didn't dare to take care of it, and she didn't bother to take care of it.
Everyone in the world said that this is just a man's play, and it can't be taken seriously.
Yoshi is no exception.
Now that Jia Lian was talking about this, Youshi was secretly worried, could it be that this idiot Jia Rong really got his eyes covered in shit, and fell in love with those half-open doors?
This can't be done!
You Shi panicked all of a sudden: "Yindie, Yindie, hurry up and tell the uncle, let the boys go to Shichahai to look for it!"
Jia Lian glared at Sister Feng's Ping'er in the air, and warned them to be more honest. It wasn't until Ping'er and Sister Feng both bowed their heads in embarrassment that Jia Lian let them go. There are people coming and going at the door, so it's not appropriate for my sister-in-law to go, so I'll go find my elder brother."
Youshi was overjoyed when he heard the words, and thanked Jia Lian a thousand times: "It's so kind, today is a good day for uncle."
But he didn't know that all of what happened today was caused by Jia Lian, the behind-the-scenes pusher.
Here, Sister Feng was pinched by Ping'er and stared at by Jia Lian, her heart suddenly became clear, and all the ambiguities before were now clear.
Sister Feng was very surprised. She didn't know why Jia Lian wanted to oppose Jia Zhen, but she remembered Jia Lian's exhortation and secretly decided to erase all clues related to the trip, and she must not reveal the slightest bit, otherwise, Jia Zhen would not be a good friend.
Feeling guilty, Sister Feng thought that Jia Lian had caused You Shi to be beaten, so she was extraordinarily attentive to her. She found her latest tailor-made clothes for You Shi to wear, and at the same time poured her latest blood-enriching black hair tea face to You Shi. Try something new.
When Youshi finished getting familiar with dressing, Sister Feng comforted her with Ping'er and blamed Jia Zhen by the way.
Ping'er pulled Youshi to comfort him and said, "According to me, this kind of wife-beating man is the most inhuman."
Sister Feng nodded in agreement: "Pinger's words are very true. Brother Zhen is really not a thing. My sister-in-law has been respecting the old and raising the children for him, taking care of the housework, and letting him spend time and wine outside. How can I feel sorry for him? My own son has not been taught well, and in the end, beating his wife is really a trick to beat the white-eyed wolf."
You Shi was full of grievances but was turned off by them, feeling extremely sad.Are you going to scold your husband together?
Seeing her in a daze, Sister Feng would have misunderstood her, thinking that she was safe and sad, and hurriedly comforted her: "Since he is cruel, you don't want to tease him these few days, just live here, and we will be together at night and stay together during the day. Wouldn't it be nice to go around the garden with the old lady and play cards and play tricks?"
Youshi has no natal family, no bosom sisters, no one has ever cared about her so much, and had a detailed talk with her. Youshi was so moved by Sister Feng's words, he hugged Sister Feng and called his sister loudly.
Sister Feng brought her tenderness to the extreme, and seduced You Shi to swear to her that they would become flesh and blood relatives from then on.
Turning around, he said that Jia Lian went straight to the Chuihua Gate, waited for a while, and greeted several uncles and elders to sit down in the mansion, and then confessed: "Rong'er in Dongfu was dissatisfied with the Qin family's marriage, and even tore up Geng's post and ran away from home. I'm not in the mood to drink, I have to help Brother Zhen find it, and comfort Brother Zhen."
Jia Dairu couldn't help scolding Rong'er when he heard the words: "This wicked person, doesn't he know that his parents' orders must not be disobeyed? Hey, it's all my fault. I've been slack in my supervision. Hey, I'm sorry for my nephew Jia Jing. "
Every time Jia Dairu talked about Jia Jing's gold-lettered signboard, he would resign and dance, and Jia Lian and Jia Rong became cannon fodder for the foil, and Jia Lian was tortured by him for countless times. Goodbye.
"Grandfathers sit wide, nephews and grandchildren will come back as soon as they go!" Then, without waiting for the masters to react, he rubbed the soles of his feet with oil and slipped away!
Here, Jia Lian rode out of Rongning Street, just as Jia Zhen and Lai Sheng came out of the mansion with a group of servants.
Seeing this, Jia Lian hurried forward to greet Jia Zhen. Afterwards, Jia Lian whispered to You Shi: "Sister-in-law You is worried that Rong'er will be trapped in Shichahai, so why don't we go to Shichahai to have a look, but I don't like this Shichahai. Familiar, does Big Brother Zhen know which house Rong'er likes to hang out in ten days?"
When Jia Zhen heard this, her face turned purple and she was very embarrassed.
He also thought that You Shi's worries were not unreasonable, and now looking for Rong'er was a serious matter, so he had no choice but to put down his face.
With a face full of shame, Jia Zhen bowed directly to Jia Lian and said, "Oh, it's all to blame for this sensible bastard who ruined Brother Lian's celebration banquet. It's already embarrassing for my brother, why should I tire my brother any longer? Lian's second brother should go back, how many guests are waiting in the mansion, Shichahai is enough for me to go."
When Jia Lian heard the words, she pretended to be flirtatious: "What are you talking about? Although Rong'er is a nephew, Sister Feng and I love him like a son. You don't know. Now that his whereabouts are unknown, why don't you tell me to go back to eat, drink and have fun? If so, is it still a person?"
Jia Lian said that he was just and strict. At this time, he had to be with Jia Zhen. First, to grasp Jia Zhen's movements, he could come up with a bad idea at a critical moment to drag him down and buy Jia Rong more time to escape.Second, it's also good to clear up your suspicions.
If the nephew who has always been close to him disappears, but he can eat, drink and watch the theater with peace of mind, not to mention the family members, even outsiders with two surnames will suspect him.
Jia Zhen was moved by Jia Lian's words, and her face was full of shame: "It's because my brother usually doesn't teach well, and now I'm burdening my brother!"
Jia Lian is not guilty here, he accepts it calmly, and he is not ashamed: "Brothers of the same flesh and blood, everything should be done, and it is very tiring to say it!"
When they arrived in Shichahai, Jia Zhen asked several secret doors one by one, and everyone agreed that they had never seen Master Rong.
Jia Lian proposed to enter the door to search, but was rejected. He was suddenly dissatisfied and decided to go in to search in person, and almost got into a fight with someone.
Jia Zhen stopped Jia Lian: "Don't go, they dare not lie in front of me, it must be that Rong'er is not here, it is useless to go in."
Jia Lian pretended to be angry: "What's so great, let's see what can be done, why can't outsiders come in and out casually, since the door is half-open, and you are so hypocritical, you are a lady of your own family!"
Jia Zhen was anxious and wanted to find Jia Rong as soon as possible so that they could marry the Qin family. She didn't want to make troubles, fearing that Jia Lian would not give in and waste time, so she turned to comfort Jia Lian: "What are you doing with them? It’s nothing to be angry with them. Let’s go, let’s look for a few teahouses, this little brat likes to pretend to be a scholar, likes to be arty, maybe he just hides in that teahouse and co-authors with those literati and poets!”
Jia Lianming knew that Jia Rong was not there, but she echoed her voice: "Oh, there is such a thing, it's very possible, you should take a look!"
Therefore, everyone in the Ning Mansion split up and swept up the famous teahouses and restaurants on the ground in Kyoto one by one.
As a result, the tea house said that Jia Rong did serve wine here a few days ago, drinking and composing poems with people, answering poems, but today it is not Jia Rong's host, and no one has seen it.
Wufenglou is even more amazing, saying that at noon yesterday, Jia Rong was still bidding for a nobleman here, but in the end he missed the bid and left in a rage.
Comb up the groom?
Jia Zhen was completely dumbfounded. He never thought that Jia Rong would be so bold that she would dare to keep a prostitute at such a young age.
Jia Zhen really has all kinds of tastes in her heart, which is hard to express.
At this moment, Jia Lian turned to comfort Jia Zhen: "Children, who doesn't have a moment of frivolity? Fortunately, it didn't happen."
Jia Zhen had no choice but to admit it.
He himself is not upright, no one is to blame!
For a while, the brothers comforted each other and searched for a whole day, but there was no useful information at all.
Jia Rong's whole dragon can't see the head but see the end, there are traces of him everywhere, and no one is seen everywhere.
At dusk, the Jia Lian brothers returned disappointed.
Here, Jia Zhen is very grateful to Jia Lian. Jia Lian can't help saying modestly, and then they leave and go home.
When Jia Lian returned home, he first arranged for a servant to deliver a food box to Jia Zhen, and then he wandered back home.
Sister Feng has all the food and wine here, and I have been waiting for him for a long time.
When Jia Lian saw it, she was so happy that she went to the kang happily, and the husband and wife sat opposite each other.
The couple's eyebrows were entangled, they pushed and changed glasses, they were full of wine and food, and they were full of affection.When I was young, I packed up and went to bed to rest, and the two of them stood side by side and held hands and chatted privately.
Sister Feng asked softly: "Second Master, why do you bother to play tricks on Big Brother Zhen? According to me, although this marriage is not well-off, the important thing is that the talent is rare!"
Regardless of past life or present life, Sister Feng valued Qin Keqing very much.
Jia Lian snorted coldly when he heard the words: "Hehe, if he divorces Mrs. You and marries Mrs. Qin himself, I will admire him."
What is this nonsense?
Sister Feng was taken aback, her hands and feet were so frightened that her hands and feet went limp. It is not a good reputation for a rich family to spread such things.
She fit on Jia Lian's body and stared blankly at her phoenix eyes: "Second Master, you, what are you talking about? What does Rong'er have to do with Big Brother Zhen that he has a wife?"
With a smirk on her face, Jia Lian stretched out her hand to hug Sister Feng, turned over and fell asleep: "It has nothing to do with us, a spring night is worth a thousand gold, and the nectar of one's stamen branches can't be exhausted, so others will get out of the wall!"
The next day, Jia Lian was full all night and was very happy.
In the morning, Jia Lian went to Dongfu to inquire about the news.
Jia Zhen has already dispatched four teams to follow her around, and she is sitting at home, just waiting for the news to come back so that he can leave Beijing on leave.
When Jia Lian heard this, she couldn't help worrying that Jia Rong would be caught.
Fortunately, the four people did not send any news back.
Jia Lian secretly admired Liu Xianglian, the ability to erase traces is really brilliant.Weird heard in his previous life that he had been a grand thief, robbed several evil gentry and bullies, dispersed their assets, and still made a living on the streets.
The policemen of Six Doors chased the thieves all over the world, but they were exhausted to death in vain.
This is all a joke from a previous life.
Back to Brother Jia Lian, so and so, day after day, three days passed, and there was still no news.
So far, Jia Zhen has given up hope of finding Jia Rong, but she has not given up her search.So I discussed with Jia Lian, and planned to send someone to Jiangnan tomorrow to entrust Aunt Lin Ruhai
