The Housekeeper's Daughter-in-law of the Red House

No one knows what Mother Jia is thinking at this moment.

It's just that the Lai family is not only Mother Jia's confidant but also her companion. Now that such a scandal broke out in the Lai family, even if there is no real evidence, no one in the room is a fool and everyone knows that it is almost a fact.

At this time, with Mother Jia's previous style of covering up so much that the Lai family must be cleaned up, it's just that she must be angry and anxious.So everyone was quiet, for fear that someone who accidentally became Jia Mu's punching bag.

The silence in the room was eerily eerie.

At this time, a voice that is not afraid of death broke the silence.

"Old lady, it's getting late. If there's nothing wrong, I'll take my leave." It was Lin Zhixiao.

As soon as Lin Zhixiao's words came out, Shulan immediately realized that their family was already released by the Jia family. Although the relationship may be closer than others, they are not the Jia family after all.At this time, when the Jia family is cleaning up their internal affairs, it is no longer suitable for the Lin family to be present.

Although Shulan felt a little regretful that she couldn't watch a good show, she did not act too slowly and immediately bid farewell to Jia Mu. If she stayed any longer, she would be arousing hatred. No one is willing to expose their unbearable side to others.

So as expected, as soon as Lin Zhixiao and Shulan opened their mouths, Jia Mu immediately agreed and asked Xueqiao to send Lin Zhixiao's family out of the house.

After waiting to get home, Shulan kicked out all the waiters in the house, and immediately asked, "Did you do this?" Although it seemed like a coincidence at first glance, Shulan knew all about it' For those who are involved in the future, the Lai family is the last one alive in the original book, and Lai Shangrong is still an official, so it is possible to kneel down here, and it is definitely impossible without villains.

As far as Shulan's knowledge is concerned, it is very likely that Lin Zhixiao did it.

Because of what Lin Zhixiao said to Jia Lian in the original book about the future plans of the Jia family, and because Lin Hongyu extended a helping hand to the downcast Jia Baoyu in the future, you must think that this person is a good person.

Hehe, if Lin Zhixiao was really a good person, then he wouldn't be the No. [-] housekeeper in Jia's name but the real chief housekeeper.You must know that the servants of Jia's mansion fight for power and gain, conspiracies and tricks are no less than those of officials.In the original book, Lin Hongyu was considered a girl with a background, but she was still suppressed by the big girl next to Jia Baoyu so much that she couldn't even see Jia Baoyu's face. From this, one can imagine how much competition pressure there is.

You have to know that housekeepers are more than just names, no matter which job you get, there will be a lot of money.The pressure of competition is much stronger than being Jia Baoyu's aunt. After all, no matter how many Jia Baoyu's girls are, there are only [-] or [-] girls, but there are hundreds of people staring at the managerial position of Jia's house.

Lin Zhixiao also has means, but just like Zhou Rui's family's help to Grandma Liu, Lin Zhixiao's human kindness has not been wiped out, but once there is danger to someone who benefits his wealth and life, he will show his fangs.

The status of the Lin family and the Lai family in Jia's family is almost the same, but now that Lin Shuyu has been admitted to Juren, the Lin family has overwhelmed the Lai family at first glance.But everyone should not forget that the entire Lin family has been released, and only Lai Shangrong from the Lai family has been released.

what does this mean?

This means that with the passage of time, the relationship between the Lin family and the Jia family will definitely not be as good as the relationship between the Lai family and the Jia family. Even if the Lin family can prosper because of Lin Shuyu in the future, the Lai family can still rely on Jia's mother to make Lai Shangrong a high official. Although Shulan knows that Lai Shangrong is muddy and can't support the wall, there is nothing to be afraid of, but the problem is that Lin Zhixiao doesn't know!

Then if Lai Shangrong's brain suddenly became bright and promising, it would be a huge hidden danger to the Lin family.The reason why Lin Zhixiao felt this way was because of Jia Mu's attitude towards the big house, which made Lin Zhixiao feel that Jia Mu's mind would sometimes lose inspiration, commonly known as "twitching".

Looking at the relationship between the Lin family and the Jia family now, it seems that the relationship between the Lin family and the Jia family is good, but what if Jia's mother loses her mind at the instigation of the Lai family and prefers the Lai family?Jia's mother's eccentricity is very bad for the Lin family. The current capital of the Lin family is not enough to compete with the Jia family.

Therefore, it is better to take the initiative to attack than passive defense.

Over the years, Shulan has also figured out that Lin Zhixiao's temperament has changed, and she has a ruthless side in her bones, so she boldly guessed that Lin Zhixiao did it.

I saw Lin Zhixiao sitting on the kang with a smile on her face, and gave Shulan a thumbs up, "Young lady is really Baogong who came down to earth, she guessed it accurately."

Seeing Lin Zhixiao's smug face, Shulan became worried, "Are you doing this well? Although it can trip up the Lai family, it also exposes these traitors. We were released, but Jia's mansion The other stewards have no way of money, don't they want to hold grudges against us. Sometimes the King of Hades is hard to deal with little ghosts, if..."

"Money can make ghosts grind, my lady has heard of it." Lin Zhixiao's lips curled up. "As long as we give them enough benefits, not only will they not hate us, but they will feel us."

Seeing that Shulan didn't believe it, Lin Zhixiao explained: "The Lai family is no more in line with our Lin family. Even if he is in charge, he can only occupy one position. How many people are there in the Lai family? It's not just the Lai family, but now only the Lai family is the best. Although the old lady doesn't care about the house now, the good farm shop in her private house is managed by the Lai family. After so many years, it is a huge sum. Aren't the others jealous.

Although they didn't intervene in Dafang's side, there are several in-laws. Now the big house is in charge of the flowers and plants in the yard, the nephew of Chief Manager Lai.In the second room, Lai Da is the second housekeeper. Thanks to Lai Da's trepidation in the Zhou family, no matter whether he looses the money or does anything, and Lai Da has the support of Jia's mother, the Zhou family will not worry about losing their status in the second room. ?

Moreover, the Lai family's ambitions are not small. Lai Sheng in the Ningguo Mansion has been thinking about the position of the chief executive, and you don't know that the chief executive will not fight back.I just provided them with an excuse, and if it wasn't for what the Lai family did against me before, I wouldn't have exposed this kind of thing. "

Lin Zhixiao is not stupid, this kind of thing is a forbidden place for the master's family, but it is a tacit thing for the stewards below.If there hadn't been something about Lai's family who wanted to kill him before, he wouldn't have revealed it.

Of course, people like Zhou Rui and Li Momo would not cooperate with him that much.

The Lin family has already retired. Although everyone is jealous, they will not kill them. After all, they are gone, and there is no such great hatred as life and death, so why should it be so.

But the ruthlessness of the Lai family is frightening. The confrontation between the Lin family and the Lai family was a matter of fighting for the head of Jia's mansion when Mr. Lin was alive. It has been more than ten years, and the Lai family can still miss it and hate it.This hatred made the Zhou family and the head of the Ningguo Mansion, Yu Da, shudder, because they are now blocking the way in front of the Lai family. This time it is the Lin family, so next time it will be their turn?

As slaves of big families, sometimes they are bolder than their masters, especially when they threaten their own property and life, they can even kill people without changing their faces.

Shulan was thoughtful after hearing the words, Lin Zhixiao is not an impulsive person, of course he is suspected of killing the grass and roots, but if the Lai family has nothing to grasp, it is impossible for Lin Zhixiao to bring it down.

This matter can be regarded as a scandal in Jia's house, especially since it involves Jia's mother, there is no news from Jia's house.

So Shulan put this matter behind her the next day, and now she is busy moving to a new house.

The Jia Mansion gave this house for free, but because it is free, it is only a one-entry house, while the Lin family’s new home is a three-entry house, even though Lin Zhixiao said it is better than other three-entry houses in Beijing. It's smaller, but it's also bigger than the house they live in now, so Shulan is still looking forward to it.

The house was bought a long time ago, but after Shulan tossed and remodeled a lot of places, plus renovations, it was not long before it was completed.In modern times, it is indispensable to put a few onions in the house to stand for a month or two to remove the poisonous gas in the decoration materials, but in ancient times, there are no such things that can be lived in as long as they are cleaned up.

Things have already been tidied up, and some things that are not used for a long time have already been transported to the new house, and the rest are only the furniture in Lin Zhixiao, Shulan, Lin Shuyu and Lin Hongyu's house.

Several donkey carts were called, and the things were quickly pulled away.

Shulan also took Lin Hongyu to his new home in a donkey cart. When he entered the house, he saw a screen wall engraved with auspicious and wishful patterns. Walking along the screen wall and passing through the screen door, he arrived at the Hanging Flower Gate. House' four characters.After passing through the Chuihua Gate, there are Chaoshou verandahs on both sides, and a courtyard in the middle, which is paved with a positive cross road. In the middle, a pond was dug by Shulan to raise various fish and lotus flowers, and flowers and plants were planted in other places.

Lin Zhixiao and Shulan naturally live in the main house, the east wing is for Lin Shuyu, and the west wing is for Xu Hao. Although Lin Hongyu is only seven years old now, she was already an older child in ancient times, so Shulan asked someone to clean up for her. Cover room to live.

Although Lin Zhixiao has always said that this house is small, in the eyes of Shulan, who has been living in a room of fifty or sixty square meters in modern times, this house is already big enough.

What surprised Shulan even more was that there was a garden on the east side of the house, that is, behind the east wing. The east wing, the east ear room and the back room were connected by a verandah, and there was a garden on one side.From Shulan's point of view, the garden is a bit big. It stretches vertically from the house gate to the back room. Lin Zhixiao made it very beautiful, with mountains, water, trees and pavilions.

"It's so beautiful!" Shulan sighed involuntarily.

"Mom, will we live here from now on?" Lin Hongyu asked excitedly.She is still a child, although the old house is not particularly bad, but who doesn't love a new house with a new house!Especially since it's so beautiful here.

Shulan nodded, "Of course!" Unless Lin Shuyu accidentally threw himself into the street, or the emperor gave him a house for his meritorious deeds, they would live here for the rest of their lives if nothing else happened. get married.

"That's great!" Lin Hongyu said excitedly, her eyes were busy looking at the scenery in the garden, Lin Zhixiao made the Jiangnan style according to Shulan's preferences.

The most famous place in the south of the Yangtze River is the Suzhou-Hangzhou Garden. Every plant, tree, flower, and stone in it is very interesting, and it is suitable for creating a garden with a small space.

With such a courtyard, Shulan will have a place to entertain guests when she entertains guests in the future, otherwise it would be too boring to entertain guests only in the main room.

After everything was sorted out and Shulan got acquainted with the new house, she began to prepare for the banquet in a few days.In addition to the family members of the Jia family and the Lin family who had made friends before, the same imperial examination candidates from Lin Shuyu's side should also be invited according to the situation.

Immediately, Shulan became busy immediately, arranging the place, arranging the dishes and so on had to be done by herself, whoever told her that these were the housewife's internal affairs.

Fortunately, Lin Shuyu has not officially entered the officialdom, otherwise Shulan would be busy.

After a few more days, the time finally came. This time, all the family members of the Jia family were not present. This time it was different from the previous internal banquet of the Jia family. The Lin family only invited people from the Jia family. Nothing to wait for.But this time it was the Lin family who invited big guests, and there were other families outside. If Jia's mother went again, she would lose her face. After all, Lin Shuyu only had potential, and had not yet reached the level of the Jia family.

So this time, in Jia's mansion, not only Jia's mother did not come, but also Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang did not come. Only Zhu's grandma Wang Xifeng and Lian's second grandma Xu were sent.

Zhou Rui's family was in charge of the trip of the second wife and grandma in Jia's mansion, and she had a good relationship with the Lin family, so she also came, and also sent a small congratulatory gift, which was considered intentional.

Of course, this intention is viewed from the perspective of Shulan, Shulan has no idea how much benefit the Zhou family has gained from the downfall of the Lai family.

That's right, the Lai family has fallen!

The end was extremely miserable, and now the whole family has been imprisoned in the prison in Shuntian Mansion.

Lin Zhixiao was actually just planning to let the Jia family drive the Lai family out, so that the Lai family could not take advantage of the Jia family's power in the future. He also did a lot of things for Jiamu, it is impossible for Jiamu to kill the Lai family.

But who knew that the teammates Lin Zhixiao chose were too good, and the Lai family was indeed a little too arrogant after Lai Ming became the head of the Jia family, so the black history of the Lai family was investigated to the bottom.

Mother Jia really didn't want people to check on Lai's family, because she used to do many things through Lai's family, especially Nanny Lai. Coming out can still make her lose face.

But Jia Amnesty is not a fool, he called Jia Zheng and Jia Zhu directly, although these two fathers and sons look like serious scholars, in fact, these two fathers and sons are very smart, especially when it comes to their own interests, otherwise Jia Zheng will not live in Rongxitang forever. It is true that there are reasons for Jia's pardon, but no one will believe that Jia Zheng has not done anything wrong.

The Lai family has always been loyal because Jia Mu has no interest relationship with other people, so once the Lai family touches other people's interests, they can immediately attack the Lai family. The only scruple is Jia Mu who is behind the Lai family.

But Jia Mu is just a woman. A woman relies on her parents and elder brothers at home, her husband when she goes out, and her son after her husband dies.Even though Jia's mother handles both sons very well, like dough, she can knead whatever she wants, but she still has to rely on Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng.

From the original book, Jia's mother compromised with Mrs. Wang again and again, not only because Jia Yuanchun was the imperial concubine, but also because she had to rely on her son when she was old. Jia Zheng can only rely on it, and she will retreat to Mrs. Wang for this reason, which led to Lin Daiyu's tragedy.

The same is true today.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng joined hands to suppress Jia's mother, so they had to investigate Lai's family. Even Jia's mother couldn't stand it and had to compromise. Fortunately, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng didn't like each other, so this kind of thing happened just by accident. That's all, otherwise Jia's mother would be nervous, even so, Jia's mother still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and kept thinking about the idea of ​​solving it.

Let the two brothers turn against each other, hehe, well, although Jia She and Jia Zheng cannot be said to be life and death enemies, they have already turned against each other and hated each other.When this hatred reaches a certain level, it cannot be increased. Mother Jia just wants them to disagree, not to want them to kill each other.

The only way now is to win over a person and let him and himself be of one mind.There is no need to choose this candidate at all, it must be Jia Zheng. Jia's mother thought about the second bedroom and had an idea in her heart.

If the top wants to check the Lai family, it will be easy for the people below. They have already prepared to find the black history of the Lai family, and they are waiting for this time.Fortunately, they are not stupid, they know how to report to the master bit by bit, otherwise they will reveal their secrets.

At first, it was just that the Lai family was corrupt and bought their own property in the name of the Jia family. Jia Mu still wanted to save the Lai family's life and just send them out.

But then Zhou Rui broke out a dose of heavy material!

When Lai Ming, the head manager of Jia's mansion, went to buy land, he beat someone to death in order to lower the price. Naturally, the crime of killing someone was placed on Jia's mansion. What made Jia's mother and others even more angry was the land property. It was not included in Jia's account book at all, and it was directly embezzled by Lai Ming.

It is said in the original book that it is not a problem for people like Jia's family to beat people to death, but it is not a problem for their own talents, after all, they have to protect their own people!Just like Xue Pan.

If Lai Ming really worked for Jia's mansion and killed someone, Jia's mansion would not say anything and would not stand by, but it was clearly not the case.

I bear the charge of co-authorship, and you get all the benefits!

Are you the master or am I the master?

Mother Jia was really angry about this. She used Lai Jiayin to kill several concubines who were favored by her husband before, but this is very common in rich families. If it is exposed, everyone will only say that Mother Jia is cruel, or that she keeps it a secret. If the kung fu is not in place, other things should be done, but the reputation will be damaged, and the big deal is not to go out of Jia's house and not to visit relatives and friends.

But what Lai Ming did could bring disaster to the Jia family. The blood-stained floors of the Meridian Gate two years ago are still red today.Jia's mother was still very clear-headed when it was about her own family, life and interests, just like how much she liked and supported Jia Zheng, she would not dare to write a letter to the imperial court to seize the title of Jia Amnesty to Jia Zheng. Mrs. Chaopin's imperial order is definitely gone, and the eldest son system does not allow anyone to challenge it.

Check, now you have to check!It must be checked to the death!

With Jia's mother speaking, the subordinates will be more comfortable in doing things, and more black history of the Lai family has been exposed. Fortunately, these people still have a sense of proportion, and the Lai family is only exposed outside under the name of the Jia family. How to do evil things, everyone tacitly ignored those things in the inner courtyard.

It is almost an unspoken rule for the servants of the rich family to be domineering outside, especially the Lai family who don't know how to restrain themselves.Lai Ming, Nanny Lai, Lai Da and others all wanted to resist, but they couldn't resist in the face of the facts, and they dared not threaten Mother Jia with the past, otherwise they would die faster.

Nanny Lai knew better than anyone what kind of person Jia Mu was, so she didn't dare to say a word except that she begged Jia Mu to spare her.Lai Shangrong is a good citizen, Lai Sheng is the second steward of the Ningguo Mansion, and they have several good sons-in-law, even if the Jia Mansion sells them out, some people will buy them.

But it's all what the Lai family's servants of Jia's family think, others don't know, because of the hatred of Lai's family, they have already offended them badly today, if they don't beat Lai's family to death, it will inevitably lead to disaster in the future.

Therefore, some people used the account check as an excuse to ask the old lady to agree to copy the Lai family's affairs, and some people said that Lai Ming and Lai Da might have transferred their property a long time ago, and they wanted to find out all the people related to the Lai family.

This is simply the rhythm of driving the Lai family to a dead end, but there are reasons for this. On the issue of their own money, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng joined forces unprecedentedly, and they did not ask Jia Mu's consent to directly let Jia Zhu He and Jia Lian led people to search Lai's house. Neither Jia Amnesty nor Jia Zheng could believe that the other party would send people to look at it. Now the Lai family is still living in the house allocated by Jia's house, so there is no pressure to search.

This inspection was even more serious, and Mother Jia's entire face turned livid.

Because in the storeroom of Lai's family, there are even Jia's mother's dowry decorations, not only that, but also some things from Jia's family.In fact, anyone who has been in charge for a few years has this thing, but the Lai family is so daring that they dare to take something that was bestowed by the emperor, even though it is missing a corner.

It was like a volcano erupting, making all the masters of the Jia Mansion very angry.But what they didn't know was that this was the result of the people below deliberately covering it up. After all, there were some unspoken rules that the master should not know, otherwise Mother Jia and the others would definitely faint from anger.

When Jia Zhen of Ningguo Mansion heard about this, her heart ached, she discussed with Mrs. Ye, and tied up and copied all the chief executives of Ningguo Mansion.Fortunately, Lin Zhixiao reminded them that the property had been transferred long ago, so except for the unsuspecting Lai Sheng who was recruited, everyone else was released by Jia Zhen afterwards.

Lai Sheng was out of luck.

Although Jia Zhen is a bit of a beast in terms of women, but in terms of ability alone, Jia Zhen has no pressure to crush Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng. It is no problem to crush Jia Zhu and Jia Lian in internal affairs. Men can do it.

Later, Lai Sheng also exposed a lot of incidents of bluffing and defrauding the township under the name of Ningguo Mansion. The two incidents broke out together, and the Lai family had no choice but to bow down and step down in the Jia Mansion!

But this is not over yet, the Jia family will not pay for the life lawsuits provoked by the Lai family. Therefore, except for Lai Shangrong who is out of slavery in everything at home, the rest of the Lai family have been imprisoned for various crimes. Tianfu is in prison, waiting for their fate to be executed or to be imprisoned for n years.

After hearing Zhou Rui's family talk about the fate of the Lai family, Shulan felt a little emotional for a while, this is the fate of being a servant.So what if the scenery is endless for a while, the master wants to kill you every second, it is worse than the poor.
