The heavens start from the red building

Chapter 10

Jia's mother didn't answer, Jia Zheng said angrily, "Brother, it's so easy to say, but a slave, he has been with mother for decades, and it's still her dowry. You can handle it without telling mother. , isn't it too domineering?"

Jia Amnesty cast Jia Zheng a glance, ignored him, and directly bowed his hands to Jia's mother, "Mother, the Lai family actually ordered someone to ruin the son's reputation on the street. The son has witnesses and copied the Lai family's name." , His family’s property actually exceeds 10 taels, where did the money come from? It’s not embezzlement from our house.”

Seeing that Jia She ignored him, Jia Zheng's eyes were red with anger. This has been the case since he was a child, and Jia She didn't take himself seriously.

Mother Jia was also very angry. She knew that the Lai family was greedy for money, but she didn't expect the Lai family to be so greedy. If Jia Amnesty were to take the Lai family down like this, then she would lose face.

Thinking of this, Mother Jia calmed down and said, "In a family like ours, some servants are greedy. If you do it in such a big way, aren't you letting outsiders see our family's jokes?"

Seeing Jia Amnesty's disapproval, Mother Jia gritted her teeth secretly, but continued, "I think so! The Lai family is indeed too shameful, but after all, the Lai family has served our family for several lifetimes. Since you have copied Lai's home, send their family to Zhuangzi!"

Jia Amnesty was speechless. She didn't understand what mother Jia was thinking about. The Lai family had been greedy for so much, yet she said lightly that she would send her to Zhuangzi.

Jia Amnesty looked around and said to the servants in Rongqing Hall, "You all go down, I have something to tell the old lady."

Of course those servants would not listen to Jia Amnesty, they all looked at Jia Mu, Jia Mu frowned, "Is there anything you can't just say?"

Jia She looked around at the servants and remained silent. Mother Jia felt that something was wrong, so she listened to Jia She's words and sent all the servants away.

After everyone left, Jia Amnesty took out the jade ruyi directly, "Mother still knows this thing!"

Jia Mu looked at it and asked dissatisfiedly, "Why did you take it out? It's a gift from the emperor, and you haven't put it back."

Jia She sneered, "Mother also knows that this is a royal gift, but my son found it from Lai's house today."

Jia's mother was shocked, and the Lai family was too courageous, even daring to steal the imperial gifts.

Seeing Mother Jia's expression, Jia Amnesty knew that she was also shocked, so Jia Amnesty continued directly.

"Mother, do you know that losing an imperial gift is tantamount to deceiving the emperor. This is a serious crime of beheading. Once I am stabbed out, not only me, but even my second brother and you will not be able to escape."

Mother Jia had nothing to say now, even if she wanted to protect the Lai family, she would not be able to if something like this happened.

But even if he had to deal with the Lai family, Jia Amnesty couldn't do it. The Lai family was his slave, especially Nanny Lai, who had served him for decades. She knew a lot of things about her, so it was better to do it herself for peace of mind.

"It's an unforgivable crime for them to make such a mistake. Boss, don't worry about this matter, I will handle it easily."

Jia Amnesty didn't care what Jia's mother wanted to do with the Lai family, anyway, he was watching. If she let the Lai family go lightly, he would not agree.

The matter has been finished, and Jia Amnesty didn't want to stay here any longer, so he prepared to leave.

Seeing that Jia Amnesty was about to leave, Wang quickly asked, "Wait a minute, uncle, you just said that the Lai family confiscated property worth no less than 10 taels. What about those things?"

Jia Amnesty didn't hide anything, "I've already had someone put it in my warehouse."

Mrs. Wang was anxious, "How can this be? It's something in the public house. How can it be put in uncle's private treasury? It's not appropriate for you to do this!"

Mother Jia also nodded, "The second daughter-in-law is right, boss, you should hand over the things."

Jia Amnesty didn't want to, so why spit out the meat in his mouth? The housekeeper of the second room has been greedy for so much in the past few years. No one can take away the Lai family's money.

"The words of my brother and sister reminded me that the Lai family has been greedy for so much money, and you didn't notice it when you helped your mother housekeeper these few years?"

Wang frowned, "What do you mean by uncle? The Lai family deliberately concealed it, so I naturally don't know. Could it be that I will deliberately cover up the Lai family?"

Jia Amnesty curled her lips, "If it wasn't intentional, then the younger brother and sister are too careless to be in charge of the house. The Lai family has been greedy so much. Who knows if the other servants have tampered with it. Mother, I want to check the accounts."

When Jia's mother heard about checking the accounts, her brain ached. She knew in her heart that the accounts in the mansion could not stand the check now, and Mrs. Wang's hands and feet were not very clean, and she moved a lot of things.

But even though Jia's mother knew about it, she turned a blind eye to Jia Zheng's face, and let it be fine.

Now that Jia Amnesty wanted to check the accounts, she had no choice but to stop them, otherwise Erfang would lose all face if they found out.

"Check your accounts carefully, boss, stop messing around. It's so late now, I have to rest, you should go back first!"

Jia Amnesty knew that Mother Jia would definitely not agree to the audit. Anyway, he had brought it up to scare the Wang family. He didn't want to really investigate. Seeing what Mother Jia had said, he stopped mentioning it and went back to his yard.

Jia Amnesty didn't want to check the accounts right now, he had already sent someone to his hometown in Jinling to summon the steward Shou back. He knew nothing about internal affairs, so it was better to wait for the steward Shou to come back.

After Jia Amnesty left, Jia Zheng complained angrily to Mother Jia, "Mom, elder brother is getting worse and worse. Look at his attitude today, he doesn't take you seriously."

Thinking of the Lai family's money, Mrs. Wang was so distressed that she couldn't help but said, "That's right, old lady, I still have to find a way. Seeing how Uncle is like this, I'm afraid Rongguo Mansion will not have a foothold for me and the master in a long time." land!"

Jia's mother was also angry, but Jia Amnesty is now a piece of hob meat, and Jia's mother can't do anything about him for a while.

"Okay, I know it in my heart, second child, it's getting late, you go back to rest first, second daughter-in-law, please stay a while, I have something to discuss with you."

After Jia Zheng heard this, although he still complained about Jia Amnesty, he had always been Jia's mother's obedient son, so he could only bow obediently and then retreat.

After Jia Zheng left, Mother Jia looked at Wang's coldly, "Second daughter-in-law, tell me, how much money did you make in the palace?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang knelt down and shouted for injustice, "Old lady, my daughter-in-law has been wronged, you know that I have always been honest and responsible, how dare I do such a thing."

Mother Jia looked at Wang's pretending to be wronged, and she didn't believe it at all, "Second daughter-in-law, I warn you, don't think that I don't know what you have done. I didn't follow you because of my second son. Care about, now that the boss has become suspicious, you'd better settle the accounts as soon as possible, otherwise when the boss gets angry, no one will be able to save you."

Mrs. Wang knelt on the ground, silently not speaking. In fact, she kept cursing Jia's mother in her heart, "Dead old woman, she said that she loves the master, but she didn't do anything. You think about suing Jia for amnesty every day, but you are really moving!" 】
