After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

Lai everyone felt that she had lost face, and the old lady's errands were not done well, and she was also afraid that the old lady would blame her. After returning, she added more oil and sauce, and taught Jia Mu what Yan and Ma said.

"Snapped!"

Jia Mu was so angry that she slapped her hand on the small table and said angrily, "If my old lady hadn't pitied them for being young and never had children, how would she stop this matter? I really don't know what is right and what is wrong!"

Lai everyone followed suit: "The old lady is kind, but the two nephews and wives don't understand the old lady's painstaking efforts."

The two master and servant were filled with righteous indignation, as if at the beginning, Mother Jia really wanted to share the worries of her niece and daughter-in-law, instead of using Shi Xiangyun to tarnish the reputation of the two nephews so that she could control the power of her mother's family.

But no matter what idea she has, if Yan Shi doesn't accept the move, she can't help it.

"Boss went to the East Mansion again?" She remembered another incident that made her unhappy.

Everyone Lai's expressions froze, carefully watching Jia Mu's face, and whispered: "Yes."

"This evil, obviously crawled out of my stomach, but it doesn't agree with me!"

Speaking of this matter, it annoyed her even more than the fact that the Shi family had lost face to her.

Originally, she wanted to use Jia Zhen to gradually control the Ningguo Mansion, and then control the power of the Jia family.It all went well at first, too.

But for some reason, Jia Jing knew about it.

Jia Jing was also disrespectful to his elders, so he directly banned Jia Zhen's clan and prevented Jia Zhen from coming to Xifu again.Not only that, he also urged Jia She to disobey her.

What are the three obediences and four virtues, obedience to the son when the husband dies.How could Sheer tell her these things before?

What's more, Jia Jing also gave advice to Jia Amnesty, and once Jia's mother made things difficult for him, he would find excuses to teach Jia Zheng a lesson.

Zheng'er is her darling, how can she bear it?

She had originally thought that when the Ninth Prince gained power in the future, she would pull Jia Jing for the sake of her family.Now it seems that forget it!

Yes, Mother Jia told Jia Zhen that she supported the third prince.But in fact, what she really supports is the Ninth Prince.The reason why she let Jia Zhen get in touch with the third prince's people was just to split the bet.

It's also fortunate that Jia Jing didn't know what she was up to, otherwise, she would have laughed to death.

——In the eyes of the princes, the remaining wealth of the Rongguo Mansion is not much different from chicken ribs, and they can be discarded if they are ruthless.Just like that, Jia Shishi still dared to bet on his grave.

Who gave her the courage?

Then, within a few days, something happened that made Mother Jia even more angry.

——A letter from a family member in Jinling, saying that the Xue family had newly acquired a soap business, but the one for the Jia family was handed over to the branch of the Ningguo Mansion.People from Rongguo Mansion went to Xue's house to inquire in a good manner, but they were kicked out by Xue's people.

Is this okay?

The Xue family is just a merchant, and they are honored to be called the Four Great Masters of Jinling together with Jia Shi and Wang's family. Now, even the Xue family dare not take their Rongguo Mansion seriously.

"I remember, the concubine sister of the second family married into the Xue family, right?"

Everyone Lai quickly replied: "Go back to the old lady, that's right."

Jia Mu said, "Go, call me the second daughter-in-law."

"Yes." Everyone Lai responded and gave Yuanyang a wink. Yuanyang bowed her head and backed out.

Not long after, Mrs. Wang followed Yuanyang over.There are Buddhist beads wrapped around her wrist, and she has a compassionate face, which shows that she often eats fast and chant Buddha.

"Greetings to the old lady."

Lai everyone secretly sighed: This second wife is really becoming more and more Buddha-nature.

Mrs. Wang had already asked Yuanyang about it on the way here.Therefore, if Mother Jia didn't ask her to get up, she didn't panic.

After a while, Jia's mother felt that she had come to the throne, so she said, "Get up."

"Thank you, old lady."

Mrs. Wang's face showed just the right amount of gratitude, which made Jia's mother feel better.

"I heard that the mistress of the Xue family is your sister?"

Mrs. Wang said: "It's just a concubine sister born to my aunt, and the relationship is not close."

Mother Jia nodded, and said with deep conviction: "These aunts, all of them don't know how to be safe, they just like to be strong, and show signs of being different from the serious ones. They don't even look at who they are. ?”

"The old lady is right." Mrs. Wang showed some melancholy, "My mother left early, and there was no one to protect me. I have often suffered at the hands of my aunt and concubine."

Mother Jia said with pity: "My good boy, I have really suffered for you."

Madam Wang wiped the corners of her eyes with her handkerchief, and said emotionally: "Fortunately, the old lady is merciful. Since my daughter-in-law married into our family, she has always given me advice and benefited me a lot."

Mother Jia felt very relieved by her flattery, and the little intention of venting her anger gradually dissipated.

"I called you here today because I have something. I want you to write a letter and ask your concubine sister."

Mrs. Wang didn't want to, but she didn't dare to refute Jia Mu, so she had to say: "Please show me, old lady."

Mother Jia winked at Lai everyone, and Lai everyone understood, and told Mrs. Wang about the matter.

After listening to Mrs. Wang, her heart was burning.

——That's money, a lot of money.The girl is really too, why not discuss it with her in advance?

"Don't worry, old lady, my daughter-in-law will go back and write a letter."

At this moment, Mrs. Wang has no reluctance at all.

——Let the Ning Mansion take the lead in this kind of good deed, if this benefit falls to their family, how much is left?If it falls into her hands, there will be few more.

Mrs. Wang will never allow this kind of thing to happen!

"Well, you go."

The second daughter-in-law has become more and more like a wooden stake over the years, and loves to wear a benevolent face. Mother Jia is a lively lady, so naturally she doesn't like staying with Mrs. Wang here.

Now that she has achieved her goal, she naturally hopes that Mrs. Wang will leave quickly, so as not to delay the maids coaxing her to laugh.

As everyone knows, Mrs. Wang is not willing to set rules for her.

Speaking of which, there are dozens of Mrs. Wang, and her son is going to marry a wife in a blink of an eye.It stands to reason that Mother Jia should no longer teach her to set the rules every day.

But Jia's mother has always been very ostentatious. From the time the two daughters-in-law married into Jia's family, they have not had a day and night without a meal, and there has been no meal without standing and holding soup.

Therefore, after receiving Jia's mother's words, Mrs. Wang left without hesitation. When she returned to Rongxi Hall, she asked someone to prepare a pen and ink, and wrote a questioning letter to her sister Xue Wang.

******

Besides, Mrs. Xue was a little panicked when she received her sister's letter.

This elder sister of hers has been supported by her stepmother since she was a child, and she has to dominate her in everything.

Later, the two got married, and the elder sister married the second son of the Rongguo Mansion, but she could only marry the son of the Xue family.

Fortunately, since she was a child, she has been used to giving good things to her sister first, and there is no resistance.No matter which family you marry, don't you just live a good life?

After she got married, she found that her husband was very considerate to her.She knew in her heart that even if it was because of her own beauty and gentleness, it was also because of the powerful Wang family.

At this time, she didn't envy her sister's marriage.

The momentum of Rongguo Mansion is stronger than that of Wang's, presumably my sister's life in Jia's is not very easy.

But after all, she was used to being bullied by her sister, and she was thinking of sisterhood in her heart.Even if she is married, Mrs. Wang always writes to her, asking her to make the etiquette a little more expensive, so as to save face for her sister.

Those etiquettes are nothing to the Xue family, and if they are given, they will be given.But she can't decide on this business matter.

"From the second Liu's family, when the master comes back, please come over."

In the evening, when Xue Duan came back from outside, he heard that his wife was looking for him. He thought there was something urgent, so he went back to the main room without washing his hands.

"My wife is busy."

"Master, let's take a look." Mrs. Xue couldn't say anything, so she gave Mrs. Wang's letter to her husband.

Xue Duan took a look and saw that the tone of the letter was quite condescending, and immediately became angry: "Your sister usually writes to you in this tone?"

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Xue was used to it, and didn't even feel that there was anything wrong.

Seeing his wife's bewildered look, Xue Duan couldn't help but sighed, thinking: How could he be bullied without knowing it?It seems that this Jia Wang family has been bullying this fool of my family since he was a child!

"My dear wife, you are no longer the concubine of the Wang family, but the head mother of my Xue family. She is the second wife of the Jia family, how can she talk to you like this?" Xue Duan looked full of hatred.

It was only then that Wang Xue came to her senses, and her expression was a little embarrassing: "I... I'm not... I've been used to it since I was a child!"

Xue Duan said: "You have been wronged in the future, so you want to tell me. By the way, the one in the west courtyard hasn't troubled you recently, has it?"

The one in the west courtyard is a new skinny horse.Xue Duan was fresh for two days, and found that the woman always put eye drops on Xue Wang's when she was talking, so she was cold.

In his heart, his wife gave birth to him a son and a daughter, how can concubines and the like arrange it?Furthermore, my wife is the most kind-hearted and soft-hearted, and has never treated these concubines harshly, but they are still not satisfied, it is really not a pity to die!

Seeing that her husband was always thinking about herself, Wang Xue felt very sweet in her heart, and smiled nonchalantly: "She is still a little girl, and there are people who are ignorant. How can I argue with her?"

Xue Duan said: "You can't give them face, lest they push their noses on their faces."

Instead, Wang Xue persuaded: "After all, it was given by your friend in the business field. If you don't look at the face of the monk or the face of the Buddha, you shouldn't treat it harshly."

"You are just too soft-hearted."

Xue Wangshi didn't want to talk to him about this, so she asked, "What's the matter with what my sister asked in her heart?"

Xue Duan said indifferently: "What else could be going on? The Ningguo Mansion is the head of the Jia family. Isn't it natural to discuss such important matters involving the clan with the Ningguo Mansion?"

"That's the reason." Xue Wang nodded, and wondered again, "It's just my sister, how should I answer?"

Xue Duan said angrily, "You can answer whatever you want."

This Jia Wang's hand is too long.It seems that next time I write a letter to Jia Jing, I will have to talk about it.In any case, let Jia Jing know that someone is thinking about his position as patriarch.

"This...isn't that good?" Xue Wangshi had never confronted her sister head-on, so she was afraid for a while.

"What's wrong?" Xue Duan said with a smile, "Just tell her the truth and say I said it. She is a woman, how can she come to Jinling to question me?"

Xue Wang said worriedly: "That's not what I mean, I'm afraid that the Rongguo Mansion will trip up our family."

The Jia family's foundation is in Jinling. For so many years, it has been the official protection talisman in Jinling area. Officials have to give the Jia family face.

But Xue Duan laughed: "Well, don't worry about it."
