Chapter 8 Restaurant Slander

Chapter 8 Restaurant Slander
Hearing old master Zhang's question, Jia Amnesty understood that he wanted to inquire about his sequel.

Jia Amnesty has read the memories of the original owner, and Mother Jia did mention that the candidate is the future Mrs. Xing.

At that time, the original owner was pushed, and he looked down on Mrs. Xing.

Mother Jia really didn't feel at ease. Although Jia Amnesty married his step-wife, Mrs. Xing's status was too low.

But Jia's mother didn't give up, she knew it after reading the original book. I don't know what method she used, but in the end she let Jia She marry Mrs. Xing.

But now that Jia She is on guard against Jia Mu, it is not so easy for her to fulfill her wish.

Hearing Mrs. Zhang's question, Jia She's heart moved, "Mother mentioned this matter, but I think I should discuss it with my father-in-law."

Speaking of this, Jia She was a little embarrassed, "Father-in-law, you also know that my mother doesn't go out for a long time and doesn't know much about people outside. Lian'er is still young, so it's better to be cautious about this matter."

Old Master Zhang also knew Jia She's situation, and sighed, "It's really difficult for you, but you are the head of the family after all, and you have to stand up. And filial piety is good, but you can't be filial, you know what I mean Bar?"

Jia She nodded, if the original owner would be upset, but Jia She felt that what Old Master Zhang said was very good.

"My son-in-law will obey the teachings of my father-in-law!" Seeing Jia She's attitude, Mrs. Zhang nodded inwardly. Jia She has changed a lot. If he can continue to maintain it, that will be a good thing.

Several people chatted for a long time, and when they saw the meal time, Mrs. Zhang ordered Zhang Chengli to arrange a banquet and asked Jia Amnesty to stay for dinner.

Of course Jia She agreed. When the banquet started, Jia She saw Jia Lian again. The child was being held by the old lady. There were many things on him, which should have been given by several aunts and the old lady.

Grandpa Zhang also asked all the juniors in the mansion to meet Jia She, his uncle. Jia She had already prepared for it, and all the boys in the mansion gave a good inkstone, and all the girls gave a jade pendant.

Having enough food and drink, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang were getting old and wanted to rest for a while in the afternoon, so they asked the two brothers of the Zhang family to take Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian to the academy to have a look.

Jia Amnesty followed him to look around. Although Qinglian Academy was famous, it was not a big place.

Thinking about it, the Zhang family's Qingliu family doesn't have much money, and this academy only accepts students who are dedicated to learning, those who are unwilling to work hard, no matter how much money they pay, the Zhang family will not accept them.

In this way, the academy can't make much money, and the Zhang family has to pay some money every month, so the scale is of course not big.

Seeing Jia Amnesty's expression, Zhang Chengli probably guessed what he was thinking, and said with a smile, "Could it be that Enhou thinks the academy is too small and regrets letting Lian'er come?"

Jia Amnesty shook his head quickly, "Brother was joking, how could younger brother think so."

Zhang Chengli didn't say anything, just smiled and continued to show Jia Amnesty.

After visiting the academy, Jia Amnesty checked the time, it was getting late, and they had to rush back to the city.

So I went to bid farewell to the old man. The old man wanted to keep them for one night, but Jia She refused, "When I went out, I promised Lian'er that I would take him to the night market tonight. My son-in-law can't keep his word."

He said so, the old man will not keep them anymore, the old man looked at the day, said that a few days will be a good day, and asked Jia Amnesty to send Jia Lian to school.

Jia Amnesty made an appointment with Zhang's family that Jia Lian would stay with Zhang's family at that time, so that he would not have to work hard every day at a young age, and his health would not be able to bear it.

Moreover, Jia Amnesty still thought carefully and wanted to separate Jia Lian from the second room. After all, he had been in the second room for so long, and he couldn't keep an eye on him all the time. Next, he wanted to rectify Jia's house, fearing that the second room would take advantage of the chaos and attack him.

Of course, I can't live there all the time. I made an appointment to go back to Jia's house on the 15th of every month.

On the way back, Jia Lian was young and very tired today, so he fell asleep in the car.

Jia Amnesty didn't bother him, and directly supported him to lean against him, let him sleep well, and closed his eyes to rest himself.

When we entered the city, it was getting late. Jia Amnesty shook Jia Lian awake, "Lian'er, wake up, don't you want to go to the night market? Are you still going?"

Jia Lian was woken up, pouted and rubbed his eyes, this child is really obedient, he didn't make trouble after being woken up.

Seeing him like that, Jia She thought it was quite funny, "How about it, Lian'er, do you want to continue sleeping? Then let's go to the night market next time, shall we?"

Upon hearing this, Jia Lian immediately woke up, "Don't sleep, I want to visit the night market!"

Jia Amnesty smiled, carried him out of the carriage, and went to a restaurant on the side of the road to eat.

Although it was not yet dark at this time, there were already quite a few people setting up stalls. Jia Amnesty chose a private room by the window, propped up the window, and asked Jia Lian to lie by the window and watch the excitement.

As long as Jia Lian can remember, when he went out, he always followed the Wang family to the Wang family.

Jia Lian had never seen the excitement on the street before, and he didn't even blink his excited eyes.

Jia Amnesty took the pills sent by the system, and his health improved. His strength was getting stronger day by day, but his food intake also increased.

At noon in Zhang's mansion, Jia Amnesty couldn't let go of his food. He was already hungry, so he asked Jia Yi to protect Jia Lian from falling downstairs. He had to eat first, and he was going to fill his stomach before taking Jia Lian to the night market. .

After dinner, it was already dark. I remembered that in the memory of the original owner, there were many acrobatic performances on West Street. Jia Lian must be interested, so he took Jia Lian to West Street.

Just after leaving the private room and before going downstairs, I heard someone below mention Rongguo Mansion.

"Everyone, have you heard that Lord Jia Hou of the Rongguo Mansion is tyrannical and lustful, and wanted to force the wife of the chief steward of his mansion, but the steward was unwilling, so he was beaten half to death by the Hou Ye."

Hearing this, Jia She was so angry that he quickly walked a few steps to the stairs to see who dared to slander him like this.

Jia Amnesty looked over and found that it was a man in black clothes. Jia Amnesty didn't know him, and felt strange. He was going to listen again to see what else he could say.

This man should be a long-term customer of the restaurant. After saying this, someone next to him spoke up. Everyone was particularly interested in these gossip about the rich and nobles.

"Qian Gui, what are you kidding, you dare to speak ill of the Duke's mansion, are you going to die?"

The man curled his lips and drank the wine in front of him in one gulp, "What are you afraid of? Ever since the old man left, the new Marquis has been a playboy, and that's the way it is in Rongguo Mansion! I just said, what can he do to me? , Besides, what I said was not a lie, it was all true."

Jia Amnesty couldn't bear it anymore, this bastard was looking for death, he went downstairs directly, greeted Jia Yi and Jia Er, "Tie this bastard up to me."

Jia Yi and Jia Er stepped forward to grab Qian Gui, who struggled desperately, shouting, "Who are you, why tie me up, I will report to the police to arrest you."

Although Jia Amnesty wanted to kick this bastard to death, he was different from Lai Da after all, he was not a domestic slave of Rongguo Mansion.

"Who am I? You were still slandering me just now, but you don't know who I am! If you want to report to the government, sir, I will report to the government! Jia Yi, turn this bastard to the Shuntian government office, and say that he slandered me in the street. This is a serious crime for a first-rank Lord of the imperial court, according to the law, you can cut out your tongue and exile, and if you are serious, you will be beheaded."

That Qian Gui was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground when he heard Jia Shen reveal his identity, but when he heard Jia Shen say that he was about to be beheaded, he was so frightened that he peed out.

The people next to him were also startled by these words, they all stayed quietly aside, and several people who had just chatted with Qian Gui quietly wanted to slip away.

Jia Amnesty called them back, "You are not allowed to leave, you still have to go to the government office to testify!"

At this moment, Qian Gui came to his senses, he didn't want to die, he struggled and shouted for grievances, "Master Jia, please forgive me, someone instigated the little one to say that, the little one is just sent by someone!"

Jia She's heart skipped a beat, Jia She could figure out who instigated this matter with his toes, it was probably one of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

It wasn't that Jia She looked down on Jia Zheng, his younger brother was the most hypocritical, he wouldn't do this kind of thing, for fear of ruining his image as a gentleman, anyway, if he didn't need to do it, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would help him.

Jia She felt that this was a good opportunity to let everyone know the true colors of those people in the mansion.

"You said you were ordered by someone, what evidence do you have, who ordered you?" Jia Amnesty was not in a hurry, and asked the question directly in the restaurant.

Although the diners next to them were scared, they all raised their ears to hear the gossip of these wealthy families.

"I have proof. It's in my arms. The man gave me 50 taels of silver, but I haven't used it yet!"

Jia Yi found the bank note from his pocket and handed it to Jia Amnesty.

Jia She shook the banknote, "This thing doesn't explain anything, who knows if it's your own money?"

The man quickly said, "The silver bill is in a purse, and the purse is in my sleeve."

Jia Amnesty rolled his eyes, this bastard is too troublesome.

Jia Yi took out his purse again, and Jia Amnesty discovered that this purse was actually used by the mansion to reward servants, and it was not ordinary servants, those who could get the purse were at least at the management level.

Jia She continued to ask, "Then can you identify who ordered you to do this?"

In order to save his life, Qian Gui nodded repeatedly, "Master, don't worry, if I see it again, I will definitely recognize it, and I didn't know what to do at the time, so I followed that person quietly and saw him enter a house on South Street."

Jia Amnesty knew that it was probably the Lai family who did it, because the Lai family lived there.Originally, the Lai family, as the domestic servants of the Jia family, should live behind the Rongguo Mansion.

But the Lai family made a lot of money, so they bought a yard on South Street. The east of the capital is the most expensive, and the imperial palace is on the east side. Princes and ministers all live on East Street.

South Street is where some merchants live, and the yards in this place are not cheap. When Jia Amnesty thought of this, she felt that Jia's mother was really sick.

The Lai family is just a servant of the Jia family, yet they can afford such a large yard.

Especially later, when Jia's family built the Grand View Garden, Lai's family also built a garden, and invited Jia's mother to visit, and Jia's mother went there happily.

Thinking of this, Jia Amnesty became furious. Now that he is the head of the Rongguo Mansion, a large part of the greedy money should be his own.

So Jia Amnesty directly confessed to Jia Yi, went back to the mansion and called all the soldiers, and then brought all the servants and handymen in his yard, Jia Amnesty was going to confiscate Lai's house.

There was business to be done at the moment, and Jia She could only look at Jia Lian apologetically, "Lian'er, my father has something urgent to do today. Can I take you out for a walk another day?"

Jia Lian was a sensible child. Although he didn't want to, he followed Jia She back to the mansion.

Jia Yi rode back to the mansion first, and when Jia Amnesty came back, Jia Yi had already summoned everyone.

Others, Jia She, are not at ease either. Only his own soldiers and people in the courtyard, Jia She, are more confident.

After all, the people in my courtyard have followed him for quite a long time, and Nanny Bai is very shrewd, she chose all the people in his courtyard, Jia Amnesty can rest assured.

Now that it was dark, Jia Amnesty didn't dare to bring too many people into the street, for fear of being misunderstood. Since the prince's rebellion, the lords in the capital have kept a low profile.

Jia Amnesty took about 20 people with him and went directly to Lai's house.

With so many people taking action, it was impossible to hide it from anyone, and Jia She didn't want to hide it. Soon Jia's mother received news that Jia She took people to Lai's house.

Because Lai Da was injured, Mammy Lai was worried about him, so she asked Mother Jia to take leave of absence to take care of Lai Da at Lai's house. Lai Er also rested today, and Lai's women were not there.

If Jia Amnesty wants to go there, it will wipe out the Lai family. Of course, Mother Jia can't just watch this happen.

Nanny Lai has been with her for decades, if she can't keep her, then his control over the family will be even lower.

Originally, because of Jia She's handling these past few days, the hearts of the people in the mansion were very fluctuating. After all, Jia She was a legitimate head of the family. He used to refuse to be a director. Now that he has stood up, those people in the mansion who are not reused by the second house are very supportive. Willing to go by.

Although Jia's mother was anxious, it was too late for her to go out as a widow, so she could only call Jia Zheng and ask him to go to Lai's house quickly to prevent Jia She from taking action.

When Jia Zheng heard this, he nodded quickly and led the people over in a hurry.

Here, Jia Amnesty has arrived at Lai's house, Jia Yi stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Open the door, open the door quickly!"

The Lai family bought a house, so of course they didn't know how to do the work with their own hands, and they even bought several servants to take care of them.

Hearing the sound of knocking on the door, a servant opened the door to see who was knocking outside. As soon as he opened it, Jia Yi pushed the door open and went in.

The servant rushed to stop him, but was pushed away by Jia Yi. At this time, Lai Er heard the movement, and ran to see what was going on, and saw Jia Amnesty leading many people in.

It was already dark now, and many of Jia She's subordinates were lighting torches. Under the light of the fire, Lai Da saw Jia She's expressionless face, and yelled out in fright on the spot.

There was so much commotion outside, the Lai family was alarmed long ago, and they all ran out. Seeing Jia Amnesty in such a grand manner, Mammy Lai felt bad.

"My lord, what are you doing, bringing so many people to my house so late?" Nanny Lai said boldly.

Jia Amnesty ignored him, waved his hand, and asked someone to bring Qian Gui up, "Look carefully, who is instructing you to tarnish my master's reputation!"

Qian Gui looked over and recognized him immediately. He pointed at Laiji and shouted, "It's him, that's the man. He's the one who gave me the banknote to slander Mr. Jia."

When Lai Er saw Qian Gui, his face changed suddenly, and when he heard what Qian Gui said, he was so frightened that he couldn't even speak.

Jia She gave him a look of disdain. He had so much courage and dared to find someone to frame him. He really didn't know how to live or die.
