Going through the Red Mansions quickly means going against the system.
Chapter 362 Aunt Lai 7
Originally, Lai's second daughter-in-law didn't have much fear of Lai Da. They were all slaves of the Jia family, so how could she be superior or inferior?
But seeing Lai Da now, he didn't dare to be presumptuous.
She quietly tugged on Laiji's clothes, hoping to say something nice to him. Lai Er was angry and didn't want to pay attention to her at all.
Lai Shangxi, the second eldest brother, saw this and felt sorry for his mother, so he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Mom is really worried about dad. Okay, how did dad think of this? If we really want to shine, it's up to us young ones to do it." .”
He is indeed the most talkative in Laiji's family, and these words can be regarded as covering up a little bit.
Laiji is really awkward, and he is most confused about this couple and their children. But he was very emotional, so he accepted them all.
"Are there still points? Isn't it true that who can beat the other? Which of you guys can beat me?"
Seeing that it was really difficult to stand up because of the commotion on the ground, before the matter was finished, they agreed to go to the next room to talk, and asked everyone who didn't matter to go out first.
Lai's second daughter-in-law naturally didn't think she was an insignificant person. Because she was old and her two sons were adults, she stayed in the house and refused to go out.
"It's okay to stay, but don't make a fuss."
Aunt Lai has made a plan, and it will be difficult for everyone to chase her away.
So the men in the family and the three women, including Aunt Lai, started discussing together again.
"There were too many children just now, so I didn't go into details. However, I have decided to quit the government and no one can persuade me."
Laiji really doesn't want to be a slave anymore, and he doesn't want to fight with his tigress wife at home, so he might as well hide out!
Lai Er's daughter-in-law wanted to make a fuss when she heard this, but she was afraid of Lai Da. Lai Er also confused her today, so she had to endure it for now.
"That's what you said, but you don't think there is still a big family to support at home. No matter what happens outside, it can't match the amount of money leaked from Master Zhen's hands. Besides, if you leave, I won't be able to work for long. The girl is still young, do you want her to grow up drinking the northwest wind?"
Lai's second daughter-in-law still speaks irritably, but she's getting better now.
"If I don't do it, I won't do it. Why don't I let you rest?"
Laiji muttered, and waited for Lai Dai to glare at him before he started talking about business again.
"Let's put it this way! The Jia family is about to end!"
Lai Er's words were astonishing and he would never stop speaking. Even though everyone knew what he was saying, they still couldn't help but be shocked.
"I'm going to die! How dare you arrange the master like this..."
Second daughter-in-law Lai wanted to chatter again, but Grandma Lai stopped her.
"If the second daughter-in-law is still like this, just leave directly. As long as you are here, I will never be able to finish this meeting!"
Aunt Lai finally understood why the Jia family never looked back even after seeing their decline. Look at their family, just Lai's second daughter-in-law, how much things have been delayed!
Lai Er ignored his wife and continued: "I have proof of this. Just looking at the positions of the men in the house, I know that Brother Rong can't be counted on."
"If the masters hadn't been unable to find the manpower, they wouldn't have given the county magistrate to our brother Rong. And if it was a bad job, it wouldn't be our family's turn."
Everyone believed what he said. Lai Shangrong completed his studies at the age of twenty, but he did not get this official position until he was in his thirties.
How many years can a person serve as an official? Lai Shangrong also thought that the current season was not good, so he thought it would be a year.
He wanted to go somewhere to make money for a year, but he didn't expect that the place was so dangerous that he almost lost his life there.
Seeing that what the second uncle said was reasonable, he quickly asked: "But military officers are different from civil servants. If there is a serious war in the past few years, will the second uncle not hesitate to die?"
"It takes fighting to turn over!"
Laiji looked down upon his nephew's timid appearance, so he just said he was afraid so he didn't go out and stayed at home to nurse!
But after all, we were not going to quarrel, so he continued: "But it is precisely because of the war that this military attache is valuable. It cannot be said that all those who die on the battlefield are heroes, but those who remain alive, who is not good?"
"If we don't control our power and destiny in our own hands, relying on those losers like Jia Zhen to protect us is really not a long-term solution."
"I thought that since Rong Guo'er has jumped out, one of our family members should also jump out. This battle depends on everyone's ability, not like an official sitting in a room. This requires real skills. I think it's just right for me to go out. "
Lai Da has been listening. He looked at Rongguo Mansion's account books today and found that he could no longer stay at Jia's house.
Moreover, he didn't want to be a slave, and he also had the intention of leaving. He originally wanted to go home and have a detailed talk with his mother, Aunt Lai, in the evening, but he didn't want Lai Er to get ahead of him.
The fan in his hand opened and closed back and forth, and he finally decided.
"I have to say this too. There is no money in Rongguo Mansion's account."
"There has been a deficit in the general ledger, and the money has been used as interest by Mistress Lian. But now that the weather is bad, she cannot get her money back, and a lot of it is lost outside. Moreover, the people under her have evil intentions and are trying to trick her. He has won over many families. That Wang'er is called the Living King of Hell outside, and Grandma Feng even appreciates him!"
"Neither my daughter-in-law nor my younger siblings are close to the young daughter-in-law of the Jia family now. If they stay here any longer, I'm afraid they will be liquidated."
When Lai Da said this, everyone felt even more uncomfortable.
Lai's daughter-in-law was the companion of Jia She's mistress who had disappeared before her, and she treated Jia Lian more favorably than others.
She originally gave up one of her daughters to serve Jia Lian, but she didn't want her to be cured by Sister Feng.
Therefore, hearing this statement made her feel the most uncomfortable.
Lai's second daughter-in-law was not much better. She was born into a serious Jia family, and her grandfathers were slaves who followed the Jia family in the army. Later, as the mistress's companions crowded out her, she disappeared from the Jia family.
But the most loyal people are these people. If she hadn't practiced her skills with her family, she wouldn't have been able to become a couple with Laiji, a reckless man.
The reason why people are greedy for the Jia family's money is that besides being greedy by nature, most of them think they are members of the Jia family.
They have a greater sense of collective honor than the newcomers Wu Xindeng, Dai Liang, Wanger and others, and they are also "loyal servants" in the official name.
If he hadn't seen the Jia family coming to an end but was unable to do anything, he wouldn't have let his evil thoughts go.
"And if we leave, the masters may be more lenient."
"What? Are we leaving too?"
Lai's wife was wiping her tears and couldn't sit still after hearing this. Lai Shangrong was so nervous that he couldn't sit up straight.
"You should also know how the masters in the mansion treated us today."
Lai Da glanced at his second son, and he didn't like it at all. "Brother Rong has been studying for half his life, but he still relies on his master's reward to become an official. He doesn't live up to expectations at all. If you do it well, you will complain, but if you don't do it well, you will lose your master." His face. The job itself is a trap."
Seeing that Lai Shangrong was not convinced, he didn't bother to care about him.
"But this is just convenient for us to get out. If we stay here any longer, I'm afraid we will get stuck deeper and deeper. It's better to go out and have a career as a family!"
