[Red Mansion] Master Jia Dadi
Chapter 50
"What?! Boss is crazy, why did you take this matter down?" Jiamu's eyes widened, her chest heaved with anger, and Tassel quickly patted her on the back to calm her down.
Jia Zheng curled his mouth and said sarcastically, "Don't the old lady understand that the elder brother took over this matter? He is all about earning credit, but he has caused our family to suffer."
As soon as Jia Zhen heard the news, she hurried to meet Jia Mu, and now she and Jia Zheng shared the same hatred, "Old lady, you have to talk to your uncle, our Ningguo Mansion can't afford such a college student." a penny."
This room is Jia Zhen's constant complaints, that side is Jia Zheng's embellishment, and Jia's mother is even more angry. It's not a bad thing for Jia Amnesty to fight for credit and make progress, but he should never, never Should they risk their Rongguo Mansion?He and Qin Jianshen are in charge of this matter, and they will surely offend a lot of dignitaries. If they implicate them and close their houses, how can she tell the dead old man.
"Lai Da, go and ask the old man to come back, I have to have a good talk with him." Jia Mu thought about it, but couldn't sit still.
Lai Da responded, and neatly prepared the horse and went.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult for Enhou to answer this matter with the family." Qin Jianshen was sitting with Jia She in an elegant room on the second floor of Chunfeng Building at this time. It hasn't moved yet.
Jia Amnesty nodded, he reckoned that this matter must have reached Jia Mu's ears by now, and his good brother wanted him to give them an explanation.
"Don't worry about me, I have a solution." Jia She picked out a piece of fish with chopsticks, "After today's meal, I'm afraid I'll be too busy in the future."
Seeing that he was calm and calm, Qin Jianshen felt relieved, picked up a piece of bamboo shoots, and tasted a few mouthfuls.
"Master Jia, servants from your house are looking for you." The waiter knocked on the door and said loudly outside the door.
Without raising his eyelids, Jia She put a chopstick of fish meat into Qin Jianshen's bowl: "Just let him wait."
The shop waiter readily responded, and ran downstairs.
When Lai Da heard the reply from the waiter, his face turned blue and he wiped the sweat from his forehead. After thinking about it, Lai Da obediently waited below.
Jia Mu was furious at first in the mansion, and then waited and waited, and the anger gradually subsided.
Jia Zheng also knew the principle of going all out, declining again, and exhausting three times. His face sank like water, and the boss really became more and more thoughtful, but this time he couldn't justify it no matter what.
"The Eldest Master is back." The maids passed on the message, and Jia Zheng looked serious, and said to Jia's mother: "The old lady will have to talk to the eldest brother later, the elder's request has been delayed for a long time, in the future Got it."
Jia Mu lowered her brows and said, "I know."
"Second Master, it's not good," Yan'er heard the news from outside, and hurried back to Rongxi Hall to tell Jia Lian that she was panting and out of breath, her forehead was covered with sweat.
Jia Lian was practicing calligraphy, when he heard this, he kept his pen in his hand, and asked casually, "What happened?"
Yan'er has always been steady, and would not be so panic-stricken if not for something serious, but Jia She taught him that if Mount Tai collapses in front of him, his face will not change, and the elk will be on the left side without blinking. The kung fu still needs to be in place.
#Hand in hand teach you to pretend to force#
"The second master just returned to the mansion and said that the elder master has taken on a troublesome matter, and he has to be in charge of paying back the money owed to the state treasury with Mr. Qin Shilang." Yan'er said pantingly. Jia Zheng came back with a face full of anger. Well, he didn't lower his voice when he told Mother Jia in Rongqing Hall, so the news quickly spread to everyone in the house.
"What?" Jia Lian quickly finished his work and put the Langhao pen on the pen stand, "Dad is back?"
"He's back." Yan'er said.
When Jia Lian heard this, he felt relieved instantly. Since his father is back, it is not difficult to think about it. He suddenly thought of something, and the corners of his lips curled up. His cunning appearance was somewhat similar to Jia She, "Yan Don't worry, elder sister, father will be fine, so let's take Yingchun younger sister to Rongqing hall to watch the excitement."
The second uncle came back in a hurry. Presumably, he thought he had caught his father. Jia Lian took Yingchun by the hand and entered the Rongqing hall. Hearing the familiar voice from inside, the smile on his face became wider, but he didn't know that his father He has always been good at doing things, but this time the second uncle shot himself in the foot with a stone.
"Greetings to the old lady, the elder master, the second master, and elder brother Zhen." The voices of Jia Lian and Jia Yingchun sounded at the same time.
Jia Lian took a sneak peek at Jia Zheng calmly, seeing his face flushed red, she knew that her father really had the upper hand.
"Brother, what did you mean by that just now?" Jia Zheng was blushed by what Jia She said as soon as he came in.
Jia She raised his finger and flicked the dust on the corner of his clothes: "What do you mean? The second brother has been studying for so many years and still doesn't understand? Gentlemen are magnanimous, and villains are always close. Isn't this sentence from "The Analects" ? The second brother doesn’t even understand this sentence?”
Jia Zheng clenched his fists, and the veins on his neck popped up. It was because he understood that he asked Jia She what he meant. Didn't Jia She say that to call him a villain?
"Don't Second Uncle know?" Jia Lian pretended to be ignorant and said: "This sentence means that a gentleman is broad-minded, while a villain is fussy. Second Uncle, remember it well, don't forget."
Jia Zheng's face turned red all of a sudden, and he scolded angrily: "Jia Lian, this is where the elders talk, what are you talking about, a junior?!"
Jia Zhen also echoed and said, "Yes, brother Lian should just sit quietly and listen." He didn't dare to confront Jia She, after all Jia She's seniority is higher than him, and he also has an official position, even if he is the patriarch, Can't hold back Jia Amnesty.
Jia Amnesty smiled, and put the fan in his palm, knocking it intermittently, "Nephew Zhen is also a junior, right? You are right, why can't Lian'er say it? Besides, he is the eldest son of our Rongguo Mansion. Sun, from now on the Rongguo Mansion will be his, so it's time to learn from it now."
Jia Zhen was rendered speechless by Jia She's words, so she answered yes, touched her nose and closed her mouth.
Xu is the eldest son and grandson. The words stimulated Jia Zheng, and Jia Zheng slapped the table angrily, obviously not wanting to pretend to be a scholar as usual, "Brother, no matter what happens today, you will You have to give us an explanation, elder brother wants to make meritorious service, it is not such a legislation, if it is for elder brother alone, let our Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion offend the dignitaries of the Manchu Dynasty, how can it be so reasonable?"
Jia Zhen nodded and said: "The second master is right, and the old lady knows it too. My father is good at Taoism now, and he spends at least tens of thousands of taels a year. Our Ningguo Mansion is now unable to make ends meet, and even the daughter-in-law wants to have a new dress." Clothes are hard, too."
At the end of his speech, he squeezed out a few tears.
If he hadn't known that Jia Zhen had spent thousands of taels of silver for the oiran in the brothel, Jia Amnesty would have believed his lies. The population of Ningguo Mansion is small, and Jia Jing only had one son like him, accumulated over generations The family property is enough for Jia Zhen to do nothing for the rest of her life, and she is called poor now because she does not want to pay back the money.
"Okay, don't talk about it." Jia's mother pressed her forehead and waved her hands and said, Jia Zhen is also a bastard, she really thinks that her old woman doesn't know anything.
"Boss, since you agreed to this matter, what do you plan to do?" Seeing Jia She's unfazed look, Jia's mother also had a vague expectation in her heart. If it was in the past, she would definitely reprimand Jia She. After a while, but in recent days, the boss has changed too much. After all, she is old and smart. Although she is angry in her heart, she is not as irritable as Jia Zheng.
Jia Zheng snorted, "Old lady, what else can I do about this matter? The old lady doesn't know about it in the mansion, but I have already heard that all the dignitaries have agreed to it outside, insisting that there is no money in the mansion. It's like lifting a rock to shoot yourself in the foot!"
"What? Why did the families receive the news so quickly?" Jia's mother was taken aback. After all, Jia's mother had been in charge of the family for decades, and she was quite proficient in this mundane business. It has always been a troublesome thing to ask for money. It is an ordinary family, and it is possible to let the servants and land leaders stand out, but this time the people asking for money are all powerful, who dares to stand up for them?Shuntian Fu Yin will definitely not show his face, this is a difficult task, and if everyone is in collusion, it will be even more difficult.
"Yes, old lady." Jia Zheng stroked his beard and said coldly.He, Jia She, didn't make a big fall this time. He really thought that Yangzhou made a contribution last time, and he can still make a contribution this time.
A worried look appeared on Jia Zhen's face: "Then what about Uncle?"
"What can I do?" Jia Zheng sneered, "Anyway, I've been very busy these days, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help you."
Jia Amnesty was holding the teacup in his hand, and when he heard the words, he raised his eyes to look at Jia Zheng, but couldn't help laughing out loud.
Jia Zheng was stunned by Jia She's smile, and after realizing that Jia She was mocking him, his face flushed all of a sudden: "Brother, what are you laughing at?"
The first room and the second room were already torn apart, and Jia Amnesty didn't bother to save Jia Zheng's face in front of outsiders, so he said with a smile: "I'm just laughing at the fact that the second brother is too sincere. Don't worry, the second brother will never ask you for help." After all, the second brother is a member of the Ministry of Industry, Wailang, and he is very busy every day!"
What he said was like slapping Jia Zheng twice on the face. Who in the Ning Rong Second Mansion didn't know that the Second Master Zheng was the most leisurely man when he was a foreigner, and he had nothing to do after he nodded every day. Dry.
Even though Jia Zhen was standing on the same front as Jia Zheng at this time, she couldn't hold back her smile, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
Liusu and other servants even lowered their heads, hiding their smiles.
Jia Lian clenched his hand into a fist and blocked his mouth. Sure enough, his idea was right, the second uncle's lip service was not enough in front of his father.
"Boss, second child, please don't say a few words." Mother Jia scolded.
Jia Zheng's face was a little uncomfortable. In the past, Jia's mother always stood by him, but today she actually spoke for the boss. The more Jia Zheng thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He was threatened, but he didn't expect that Jia's mother was also such a person.
Mother and son are of the same heart, and Jia Zheng was raised by Jia's mother when he was young. As soon as his expression changed, Jia's mother immediately saw what was going on in his heart, and at that moment, her heart turned cold.
After waving her hand, Mother Jia said dejectedly: "You two are grown up too, my old woman can't handle it anyway, that's all, that's all, you can do whatever you like about this matter. Tassel, you took mine. Match the cards, count out the money owed by our house, and give it to the elder."
Liusu responded crisply.
Jia Zheng was stunned for a moment, "Old lady!"
"There's no need to say any more." Mother Jia leaned on the armrest, propped her face with one hand, and pressed her forehead with the other, "I'm tired today, you guys go."
Jia Zhen answered yes, and looked at Jia Zheng hesitantly. Once the old lady handed over the money from Rongguo Mansion, what would they do with Ningguo Mansion?
Jia Zheng curled his mouth and said sarcastically, "Don't the old lady understand that the elder brother took over this matter? He is all about earning credit, but he has caused our family to suffer."
As soon as Jia Zhen heard the news, she hurried to meet Jia Mu, and now she and Jia Zheng shared the same hatred, "Old lady, you have to talk to your uncle, our Ningguo Mansion can't afford such a college student." a penny."
