An old lady's life

After Jia Daihua finished speaking, he was a little out of breath, and Hongye thought, what a worrying thing is the inability of future generations to succeed!

"Uncle, there's no need to rush this matter. You should rest early. Jing'er is a good boy. Our Rong and Ning mansions are closely related. As long as the Rong mansion is still there, nothing will happen to the Ning mansion."

Jia Jing supported Jia Daihua, Hongye hurriedly poured another glass of water from the table, and naturally added a drop of spiritual water secretly.Since she visited Jia Daihua last time, she couldn't find a chance recently, and she has never been able to feed Jia Daihua with spiritual water.

Jia Jing took the cup from Hong Ye's hand, his eyes were still red, "Father, don't worry about these things, my son only wants you to be well." He said while feeding his father water.

After Jia Daihua drank the water, he patted Jia Jing's hand and said in a weak voice, "I'll be tired of my brothers and sisters from now on."

Jia Jing helped Jia Daihua into the inner room, and could vaguely hear Jia Daihua's intermittent voice, Hongye sighed, feeling sorry for the parents of the world.She learned from Jia's mother's memory that Jia Daishan looked at his two sons before he died, and he felt all kinds of worries. Looking at his eldest grandson, Jia Hu, he was also full of worries. Only the healthy and smart Jia Zhu made him quite gratified. .

Mrs. Xu sent Hongye away from the back door, walked through several corridors, and said very little along the way. When she approached the back garden, Hongye stopped and looked at Mrs. Xu: "Nephew and daughter-in-law, Brother Jing, take good care of your father-in-law. What are you missing? Just send people to Rongfu, Auntie is not a stingy person."

Xu twitched the corners of her mouth, showing a standard smile, "Thank you, Auntie."

Hongye patted her hand, "Just send it here, the two are close, so don't be so polite."

Seeing the backs of her aunt and maid disappeared, Xu returned. The maid carried a lantern, and the cold wind blew on the Buddha. Thinking of what happened that night, Xu couldn't help but feel a little heavy in her heart.

Her husband's ability is limited, the Ning Mansion has such a large family business, if her father-in-law is gone, can the Ning Mansion really be stabilized under the watchful eyes of the wolves?

Back in Cong Lv Tang, Jia Jing had already served Jia Daihua to sleep, and recalled the servants who had been sent back from elsewhere, and ordered the servants to look after the old man, and the couple left Cong Lv Tang.

Mrs. Xu followed Jia Jing one step behind, and the two walked up the Jiuqu corridor one after the other.

"Father fell asleep? Did you sleep peacefully?" Xu's voice broke the silence, and Jia Jing, who was immersed in unspeakable sadness, woke up.

"Well, father has already fallen asleep." The couple were speechless all the way back to the main courtyard, after washing, they lay on the bed with Xu's back facing Jia Jing, she couldn't fall asleep either.

"Madam, am I useless?" Jia Jing's voice sounded in the small space, Xu's body froze, she turned around and looked at Jia Jing, under the dim light, neither of them could see clearly The expression of the other party.

"Master, don't think about it too much. A dragon has nine sons, each of which is different, let alone we are mortals. The master is not as capable as others, but as long as the master is steadfast, it will be fine."

Jia Jing quietly said: "If the eldest brother is still alive, I think my father will not be so anxious today."

Mrs. Xu has never met Jia Jing's eldest brother, but only heard some old people mention it in the mansion. Like Huer of Rong Mansion, he is a clever child. He is about to marry a wife in a year or two. Die young!

Back then, the mother-in-law couldn't bear the blow, so she fell ill and died shortly after Jia Jing got married.

"Master, don't be ashamed of yourself. In my mind, Master is my best husband and Zhen'er's best father. No one else can compare." Mrs. Xu stretched out her arms to hug Jia Jing, and laid her face on Jia Jing's chest, her expression moved. said.

Jia Jing was a little embarrassed, hugged Xu, and sighed: "Go to sleep."

After Hongye returned to the mansion, she couldn't sleep for a long time, and her mind kept thinking about what happened today.Before, she had thought of things in the Red Mansion too simply, and she always thought that as long as she was not partial like Jia's mother, and then eradicated the ills of the Jia family, then the Jia family would be able to continue.

But the ancient imperial power was very important, if they didn't know how to assess the situation, and there were many villains and red eyes in this world, it would not be easy for the Rong Mansion to be safe.

So, should she find the next emperor to invest now?Hongye calculated about Emperor Changping's son, combined with the situation of many princes in her memory, and then she became a black line.

Now she basically excludes the first prince and prince, but from the third prince to the tenth prince, there are six princes, and she has no way of knowing who is the next emperor!

Thinking wildly, and a little annoyed, in a daze, Hongye was still muttering, why is wormwood so lucky, Lin Hai needs IQ and IQ, and is born to be an official, so she doesn't need to worry about it at all.

Early the next morning, Hongye urged Jia Hu to exercise in the morning, and the grandparents and grandchildren had breakfast together, and Lai Jian rushed to report.

"Old lady, the emperor issued an imperial decree to my uncle. My uncle will be the governor of Southwest China, and he will take office soon." After finishing his breath, Lai Jian raised his head and glanced at the old lady quickly, then lowered his head again.

Hongye's hand paused, thinking that the emperor's decree was really fast.

"Steward Lai, let's go to Bowlinghou's Mansion to see what the uncle has ordered, or you can stay at the uncle's place to see if you can help."

Lai Jian felt relieved, and responded crisply: "Okay, old lady. The old servant will go now."

After sitting for a while, Hongye caressed Jia Hu's little head, "Hu'er first take my younger brother back to the west courtyard and hand it over to your aunt, and then you go back to your mother in the east courtyard, so you don't have to accompany grandma for now. Let's have dinner with grandma again, okay?"

Jia Hu tilted his head and thought for a while, then patted his chest and replied, "Okay, I will send my younger brother back to the west courtyard first, and then I will go back to the east courtyard to accompany my mother to study for my younger brother."

Hongye Zhao Liuli whispered a few words beside her, Liuli immediately nodded with a serious expression, and walked out of Rongxi hall quickly.

Hongye is not doing other things, she now wants to know what happened to Jia Daishan's subordinates in the army in the past, Jia Daishan handed over all the contacts to Jia Amnesty, and Jia Amnesty is not here, so she can't think of a way?

She couldn't know all of Jia Daishan's hidden hands, but one or two were still acceptable. For example, Lao Zhou, the second gate manager in the front yard, was one of them.She explained her interests to Lao Zhou, presumably Lao Zhou would not refuse to inquire about the situation for her.

Lao Zhou will arrive soon. He is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a broad face, round eyes and a flat nose, and his facial features are very inconspicuous.

"Old lady, I don't know what to do with the old slave?" Lao Zhou's status in the mansion is not high, anyway, he is not as good as Lin Ye and Lai Jian. Of course, he doesn't care about the little monthly salary. At the end of every year, the master gives him extra rewards of.

Hong Ye didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "I didn't ask you for anything else, but I wanted you to find out about the situation in the army."

Lao Zhou raised his head and glanced at the old lady, his face full of embarrassment.Women shouldn't meddle in men's affairs.

Hongye couldn't help but sighed inwardly, and lowered her voice, "I know what you are worried about. The boss is not in the mansion, otherwise I will let the boss look for you. The old man has only passed away for more than a month, and some people can't help it. Old Zhou, Presumably you also know the situation in the court, and Rongfu's connections in the army are just a piece of fat. I don't need you to do anything extra now, I just ask you to inquire about the situation quietly, so that the entire Jia family will not be caught by someone with ulterior motives. People were dragged into the water."

After thinking about it, Lao Zhou nodded for a while and agreed: "Yes, old lady, this old slave knows."

Lao Zhou turned around and left, Hongye said again: "You don't need to do anything extra, just record who has two hearts."

Lao Zhou left Rongxi Hall and returned to the place where he went to work. He was in charge of things and other people. He ordered the people below to do things well. He then returned to his home in the back street of Rongfu. His old wife was washing clothes. After changing the clothes on his body, he threw it to his wife casually, and then walked away.His old wife stared at his back, wondering why he didn't go to work in broad daylight and came back to change clothes?

There was nothing lively in the inner city. When Lao Zhou came directly to the outer city, the outer city was much more lively. There were many shops along the street, and there were many hawkers setting up stalls on both sides of the street, with constant hawking.

Lao Zhou wandered around the street, then turned into a secluded alley, and he came out about a quarter of an hour later.Then I bought some gadgets on the street, including wooden hairpins for my old wife, headbands and windmills for my granddaughter and grandson, and when I was about to return, I happened to see a familiar person getting off the carriage at the entrance of the opposite teahouse.

Old Zhou muttered, shouldn't the eldest son-in-law be in the yamen at this time?If you come to the teahouse to meet guests, aren't you afraid that the yamen will remember you?He wanted to leave at first, but immediately thought in his mind, it seems that the eldest son-in-law has behaved inappropriately recently, and the eldest girl has come back and cried, do you want to see what the eldest son-in-law is doing?

Thinking about it this way, Lao Zhou immediately turned around and entered an alley again, and appeared at the entrance of the alley with a somewhat thin middle-aged man after a while.The middle-aged man walked staggeringly, entered the teahouse, and chatted with Xiao Er. While hooking his shoulders and shoulders, the five cents slipped into Xiao Er's sleeve. Xiao Er smiled and pointed to the second floor cryptically. , the two also laughed and went up to the second floor, Xiao Er brought the middle-aged man to a corner, and they happened to be able to see the door of the private room where they met in the same frame.

Lao Zhou was not in a hurry at all. After waiting for almost half an hour, the middle-aged man came back.He whispered a few words in Lao Zhou's ear, Lao Zhou's face darkened, he patted him on the shoulder, and the two said goodbye to each other.

The specific situation has not been known yet, why is the uncle joining in the fun?Old Zhou couldn't help but look a bit puzzled.

Hongye thought about Lao Zhou's situation and feared that he might not be able to get it for a while, but she didn't think that Lao Zhou would come back within two hours after going out.

"Old lady." Lao Zhou frowned, his expression somewhat indignant, "Just now, this old slave saw Eldest Uncle and Yang Qiu meeting secretly in the teahouse."

Hongye raised her eyebrows: "Yang Qiu?" Never heard of this person, is he familiar with Qi Frame?

"Yang Qiu's father, Yang Wei, Captain Yang, was single-handedly promoted by the old man, but Captain Yang passed away a few years ago, and his son Yang Qiu is also in the army, and is now a captain." Old Zhou said with a serious look.

Hong Ye understood, "I'm afraid Qi Frame is to surrender to a certain prince, and then take the initiative to help him win over the middle and lower ranks of the army. Naturally, we must find an easy place to start."

Old Zhou clenched his fists tightly and took a deep breath, "Don't worry, old lady, the old slave will report to you in two days at the latest."

Hongye dismissed Lao Zhou, picked up the tea cover, and was about to drink water, when she remembered feeding Jia Daihua Lingshui, she asked the maid outside the door, "Fei Cui, do you have any news about the sweet mountain spring water I asked you to pay attention to earlier? "

She planned to use mountain spring water from outside, in the name of mountain spring water, then add spirit water and distribute it to Jia Daihua, so that Jia Daihua could last for another year or two.

Fei Cui poked out half of her head, and said with a worried expression: "Reporting to the old lady, this servant will go and ask Madam Xu, and I will get back to you later."

Hongye nodded: "As soon as possible."

Fei Cui turned around and disappeared, almost collided with Lai Jian, who patted his chest: "Hey, what are you running for, girl?"

Fei Cui sticks out her tongue at Lai Jian, turns sideways and leaves, Lai Jian shakes his head, the little girl is not stable in filming, unlike him Grandpa Lai, but Taishan is overwhelmed and her face does not change.

Lai Jian came back from Bowlinghou's Mansion to do errands for the old lady. Although he didn't do any heavy work in Bowlinghou's Mansion, he also helped with a lot of things.Lai Jian described the situation of the Marquis Bowling's Mansion in detail, and finally said: "Old lady, uncle asked the old slave to bring you a message. You don't have to go back to the Marquis Bowling Mansion. He will leave the day after tomorrow at the latest. Linghou Shizi and Shizi's wife, let the old lady take care of the nephew and nephew's wife in the future."

Hong Ye waved her hand: "Understood, Housekeeper Lai has worked hard today, so let's go back earlier and rest."

Lai Jian exited Rongxi Hall very happily, and finally did something that made the old lady happy. He lived in Rongfu yesterday and has not come home. He will go back early today to see his grandson.
