Red Chamber Fellows: You Are Not Guilty

Mrs. Xing heard that Mrs. Zhang took over the matter by herself, and it was in line with her purpose of coming here: "But this is the reason, our master is a son when he comes to the mansion, and we can't do things that are too serious. , not for the two of us, but also for the reputation of the child."

Mrs. Li interjected: "Isn't that the reason? Parents don't plan for their children."

Just as he was talking, he heard the servant back and forth: "Old lady, master Jia told the old lady to come back, saying that the old man is going to beat her again, and asked you to save her life."

Mrs. Zhang didn't care about Mrs. Li's surprised face, she smiled and said to the outside of the room: "Go and tell him, I don't care about their father and son. The old man must have his reasons for beating him." Thinking about it, I don't feel relieved: " It is said that Brother Cong is still following today, so let the old man serve food early, so as not to starve the child."

Mrs. Zhang explained to her sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, don't make fun of me. If you want to talk about our aunt," she remembered that there was another Mrs. Xing, and changed her words: "Our Mr. Jia, every time we meet the old man, there is such a thing. One time, the old lady replied that she didn't care, and that time she didn't think of a way to untie it."

That time when Jia Amnesty came to make amends and cleanse herself with emotion, Mrs. Zhang also learned it when she went back to her natal home. Mrs. Li had heard a lot about Mrs. Jia, who had a deep affection for his ex-wife, and now getting along with his ex-wife's family, and she felt very sorry for Xing Madam sympathized a little, and even took care of Yingchun, the prostitute daughter who was recorded under Madam Xing's name, so I won't mention it later.

I don’t blame Old Master Zhang for wanting to beat Jia Amnesty. You said you and others learned from how you made things difficult for Zhang Shangshu and Sun Jian yesterday. Old Master Zhang didn’t care about his urination, but he absolutely shouldn’t. Show off the fact that the man who he knows is the emperor takes care of the Wangqing Residence and doesn't tell those two people, so that the old man Zhang can't move the ruler and still keep him for the New Year?

"Where did they offend you, you want to cheat them like this? What if they say something they shouldn't say..."

"Didn't you say that?" Jia She pushed away Jia Cong, who had been lying on top of Old Master Zhang as soon as he lifted the ruler, and said to himself, son, you are not taking the ruler for your father, it is clear that your father cannot be free Run away.

"That's because they are cautious." Mrs. Zhang couldn't think of anyone who could be so confident after doing something bad.

Jia Amnesty also felt that he was wronged: "I just knew they were cautious so I didn't tell them." If those two people, especially Sun Jian, couldn't show their appearance, everything they did and said would reveal a fake, the emperor You can't think that they are acting: "Think about it, even if these two people show their loyalty by bleeding in front of the emperor, they are not as credible as the emperor's own people who secretly heard it."

The reason is such a reason, but how can you break it if you always want to beat someone?Mrs. Zhang patted the table with a ruler, and Jia Cong's eyes followed his ruler up and down, which made him a little funny, how could he raise such an honest child.

"Besides, before they went, they had already asked me eight times if I had any other ideas. They could tell that they wanted to be safe. How could they put themselves in danger just because they had a drink with me?" Jia said. She even felt that Mrs. Zhang's elbow was turned outward: "I am your son-in-law, father."

Mrs. Zhang ignored him, and turned around to test Jia Cong's knowledge. This kid has not long been able to gain any insight, but he just listened to how well he memorized the books, and then saw how neatly he wrote.After the school exam, the old man came and said: "Don't let this child delay in your home school, let him study at your residence."

Unexpected joy fell from the sky, not to mention Jia Amnesty, even Jia Cong knew what an honor it was to be able to study at Zhang's family. "Thank you for your grandfather's cultivation. My grandson must study hard and get the first prize soon." With this ability to recognize relatives, if it is not Jia She's biological Mrs. Zhang, he would have to be anxious.

The old man asked with a good temper: "Why do you have to be the number one scholar?"

"After being the number one scholar, even if the father and elder brother are not at home, no one can take sister Qiao away." Jia Cong's ambition is really extraordinary.Later, Mrs. Zhang also heard Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian mention this matter, and Jia Lian specially took a copybook from him for this, and thanked Jia Cong.After hearing about the little man's ambitions, Mrs. Zhang felt that it was not a loss for him to let people come to his house to learn to study. If he was not afraid that his grandson and great-grandson would have opinions, he would be able to teach him himself.

Jia Amnesty also patted his son's head: "Good boy, a man should support his sisters and nieces."

"What's the use of having brothers backing you up?" Mrs. Zhang became displeased after hearing this: "If you don't have a good husband and son-in-law, it's useless to have as many people backing you up." How did you trap yourself again?Jia Amnesty said that he was under a little pressure.Fortunately, Jia Cong made a fortune: "I will be a good husband in the future."

Mrs. Zhang even made him laugh: "It's a pity that my family doesn't have a girl, or I will make you a little son-in-law." Speaking of this, I remembered that my daughter was only 11 years old when she got engaged, so Jia Amnesty could also be worthy of these three words However, the ruler that had been raised for a long time still fell on Jia She.This time Jia Amnesty didn't complain, and remained silent with Mrs. Zhang.

"Now you have disturbed the hall, but what happened?" Old Master Zhang asked after a long time.

Jia Amnesty also calmed down, and Zhengyan replied: "Now it's Zha Gongxuntian and Zha's House of Internal Affairs who are working together, which is equivalent to breaking their two paths. Xungui's family doesn't have much money but they have connections. If they can't keep Xungui this time, they will have to They are at odds with people. The Ministry of Internal Affairs is their purse, so they don’t have money to support people and soldiers. But their current power has been almost eroded by the emperor, and there are fewer and fewer people in the local area who can move. Things are getting more and more serious, and I don’t believe they won’t take any action.” Seeing that the old man Zhang’s expression improved, he continued: “The last time Zhong’an made an appointment with me, I was taken aback. , just look at the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

"The House of Internal Affairs?" Grandpa Zhang was surprised: "If you say that Zhongping's House of Household is almost staffed, Zhong'an's mother and concubine have never been more favored than that woman, and their status is also lower than that woman. Is there any manpower?"

Jia She shook his head: "We all underestimated Zhong'an. It was also the day before Zhong'an asked me out, and the wife of Duke Fu's mansion came to my house to show off his power. I guessed that they might not be Zhongping but Zhongan's people. .The next day I cheated him, and he did.”

"Could it be that he pretended it on purpose?" Mrs. Zhang still didn't quite believe it.

"Just look at the few families that handed over the land of meritorious service." Jia She continued: "In addition to our family and the people who are Zhong'an on the surface, there are also a few seemingly neutral families, but there are also four or five. On the face of his family, he is a loyal person. There is Fuguo Duke's Mansion here."

Mrs. Zhang nodded to agree with his statement, and then asked: "What's the matter with the historian?" Either you hand it in early, or you don't hand it in, but you handed it in to the household department the night before it just expired. What does Shangshujia mean?

Jia Amnesty smiled triumphantly: "This is the benefit I got by frightening our old lady." He taught the old lady Zhang everything about that day.Unexpectedly, after listening to it, I was taken aback again: "Just play with fire, what do you tell her about such a thing?"

"It's okay, I've already told the emperor about it." Jia Amnesty said indifferently: "That's too much to say, and besides, it's always our old lady's natal family. If something really happened to our old lady The second is that it’s okay, she can come to me and cry ten times a day. This time I’ve done my best, and I’ve given her the bottom line and still don’t repent, that’s a goddamn ghost who can’t be persuaded by good words.” He said meanly Xi laughed: "You don't know, our old lady doesn't know where she got the confidence to believe that the Supreme Emperor only cares about the veterans, and won't let the emperor take care of the nobles."

"A woman's opinion." Old Master Zhang didn't have a good impression of that old lady.

"It's not just a woman's opinion. It's probably because the emperor's newly promoted concubines are old ministers, and after they were promoted, they let people visit their relatives, so they thought it was the emperor who put pressure on the emperor to make the emperor compromise."

Mrs. Zhang only had guesses about this, but refused to speak clearly, but Jia Amnesty wanted to vomit quickly: "They haven't seen how well the two of you get along, and besides, is he giving you face? I want to see your family property. So when they said to repair the garden, I disagreed with life and death. Well, if you want to repair the garden, I will pay all the money to the Ministry of Households. If you want to occupy my place, I will divide the family. See Who can twist who."

Old Mr. Zhang had to be convinced of his ability to kill one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred and still boast about it: "Then you haven't gained any good reputation."

Jia She laughed again: "But I got a real benefit. Not to mention that my Lian'er got a real job, she is already higher than that prudish one, and the emperor and the Supreme Emperor also knew that I wanted to come back and arranged a place for me. Father, don't say that even if I don't come out, the mansion will be really safe."

After hearing that he knew it himself, Mrs. Zhang patted him with a ruler again and let him go to eat.

After returning to the house for an inventory, I found that the task was overfulfilled on this day. Not only did Mrs. Zhang take care of Jia Lian’s affairs, but Yingchun had already completed the meeting and was approved by her husband’s family. .Even Jia Cong was able to go to Zhang's family to study at the attached school, not to mention how successful he was, those classmates alone were not at the same level as Jia's school.Just as they were talking happily, Yuanyang came in after being notified: "Master, please."

Yuanyang is also unwilling to come to Rongxi Hall. Now she and the people in the eldest room are disgusted with each other. In addition, the old lady obviously did not doubt the matter of the Lai family last time, and gradually began to rely on the four girls sent by Jia She. The person who ran the errands became her, which made the once proudest mother of Jia feel uneasy.
