[Red House] World Transformation Project

At this time, the Rongguo Mansion was shrouded in a lingering gloom.

Mother Jia's face was livid, her hands were stiffly hugging Youshi who was crying in her arms, and she asked breathlessly, "Tell me what happened again, how can you be in such a dirty place...! "

She paused, unable to speak.

Youshi choked up, and said with a sob: "The old lady is aware that although Rong'er is stubborn, she never dares to confront others because of this. The child's marriage has many twists and turns, and he was restrained earlier, presumably because he is bored... ..."

Jia Mu knocked her crutch angrily: "Don't you try to excuse him! Tell the truth!"

You Shi was excited, and hurriedly said: "It's like this, Rong'er fell in love with a girl before, but that girl already has a fiancé, so of course she couldn't do it, he was upset, and repeatedly...replaced the maid who served in the room, I was afraid that he would hurt himself if he didn't know how to restrain himself, so I explicitly forbid him to show face to the new girl, but after all... just the night before, Rong'er ran out somehow, wait, when we got the news, it was already ..."

Covering her face, she began to cry again.

She has no feelings for Jia Rong. If it weren't for the fear that Jia's mother would be dissatisfied with her, she wouldn't even want to cry, so there is no need to say anything to cover up. The thing has already happened, and the person is no longer good. It is serious to find a way out for your own benefit.

Naturally, Mother Jia could also guess her thoughts, and knew better what her stepmother's status was in Jia Rong. She was both a woman, and she understood and sympathized with You Shi with such a husband and stepson. , She hated Youshi's ignorance, incompetence and inaction deeply, so she angrily said: "What do you eat! I married you to persuade the men, take care of the family business, and extend the heirs to your husband's family! But what about you? You have been here for more than ten years, let alone a concubine, not even a concubine, and now that something like this has happened, you are ashamed of my ancestors of the Jia family!"

You Shi was so scolded that her face was flushed red and she didn't dare to look up. Ruan Qing finally found a gap and quickly interjected: "Old lady, the most urgent thing now is to invite the imperial doctor to have a look at Zhen'er and Rong'er before making any plans. Ningguo Mansion There is also a girl here, who cannot be left unattended now."

Mother Jia regained her composure, and said with a sneer, "Would you like to find an imperial doctor to let everyone know how Brother Rong got hurt? Shame on your ancestors!"

But she couldn't ignore the fact that they were relatives, she gritted her teeth and said, "Master Zhang, Wang, you two are going back with You to stabilize the Ningguo Mansion, don't let such dirty news affect the Duke's expedition. Yuanyang, Go find Yuan'er, An'er, and let them go to Dafang to help Second Grandma take care of Wei'er."

Ruan Qing paused for a moment, then glanced helplessly at Mrs. Zhang, the two of them responded in unison, and took the carriage with them to go out.

Sitting in the carriage, Mrs. Zhang looked gloomy. She didn't want to take care of the bad debts of the Ningguo Mansion, especially since the eldest girl in her family was in a better condition and couldn't leave her. How could she rest assured that Wang Xifeng and Yuan Chun, who were not yet confinement? Two unmarried girls to take care of the children?

But Mother Jia had already spoken, and she had no choice but to go there.

Pressing the center of her eyebrows, she muttered to herself, "I don't know how my Wei'er is doing."

Ruan Qing patted her shoulder reassuringly, and said softly: "It will be fine, didn't the fever just subside yesterday?"

Mrs. Zhang smiled bitterly, and held her hand instead. The cold palm was wet. In fact, both of them knew that the death rate of children in this era was terribly high. It is normal for Yingchun, who is eight or nine years old now, to die young. A minor illness may be gone.

She closed her eyes and said in a low voice: "I am in a hurry to name Wei'er, am I wrong? People say that children should not be in a hurry to name, or they will not be able to suppress their luck. I thought, our Rongguo Mansion is the first A girl, why can't she hold back..."

Ruan Qing felt sad when she heard that, and squeezed her hand tightly, saying: "It's not your fault."

She didn't say a word, just lowered her head silently, leaning on Ruan Qing's shoulder, as if she wanted to cry.

I just couldn't cry until the end.

As the mistress Zhang, no matter how sad she was, she had to cheer up in front of her servants. As soon as she entered the Ningguo Mansion, Ruan Qing found that her expression gradually hardened, and she no longer had the slightest weakness as before.

At this time, Ningguo Mansion was in chaos, Mrs. Zhang went to the front yard to rectify the servants, and Ruan Qing went straight to the backyard to see Xichun. The little girl was only three or four years old at this time, but probably because of the butterfly effect, she was not raised in Rongguo Mansion. , her temperament was actually a bit colder than in the plot. When Ruan Qing passed by, she leaned against the door frame and watched coldly.

Ruan Qing frowned, looked back at the servants of Ningguo Mansion who were following her, and reprimanded: "What are you doing to eat? Why don't you bring the eldest girl in to rest?"

The nanny was excited, hurriedly responded, and went forward to coax Xichun to go in, but she heard Xichun ask: "Is he dead?"

Ruan Qing was taken aback, unable to guess whether she was talking about Jia Zhen or Jia Rong, but she definitely couldn't tell the child that directly, so she scratched her head in distress.

Youshi couldn't hold back, and the lack of attention of the servants also showed that she was not strict with the housekeeping. In order to save face, she quickly coaxed: "Elder sister is obedient, sister-in-law has something to do, you should go back and rest obediently, tomorrow Sister-in-law will bring you something delicious, okay?"

Xichun looked at her quietly, a bit of sarcasm flashed in the child's clear and clean pupils.Ruan Qing sighed, the child matured precociously in the original book, but she lived in Rongguo Mansion at the time, so she was rarely directly impacted. Now she is raised in Ningguo Mansion, and sees her brothers and nephews pulling maids and servants around every day, how can she not affected?

Ruan Qing squatted down, touched Xichun's head, and said softly, "Auntie came here in a hurry and is tired now, can you invite me in for a sit down?"

For a precocious child, coaxing her like a child will only be counterproductive, and equal communication and soliciting opinions can gain the same respect from the other party.

You Shi was taken aback by her, and hurriedly said: "What is Second Aunt doing, I can't do it!"

Ruan Qing shook her head and said: "Go and let the girls calm down, don't mess up and cause trouble for sister-in-law, I'll just stay with the eldest girl."

In fact, there are not many people in the back house of Ningguo Mansion. Except for Xichun, a noble lady who needs attention, other people are not very important. Youshi can handle it by himself. Ruan Qing only needs to manage Xichun and not run around. up.

A little surprise appeared on Xichun's expressionless face, and it took a long time before he respectfully said, "Second Aunt, please come in."

Youshi hesitated to speak, but in all fairness, she definitely didn't want Xichun to go to Rongguo Mansion. The Ningguo Mansion has been cut off now, and it is likely that she will adopt a child back in the future. With this most orthodox young lady here, she How to get some advantages.

But she didn't dare to refute what Ruan Qing said, she paused for a while before turning around and going out.

As soon as I arrived at Zhang's, before I had time to help, I heard the young servant announce through the curtain that the Duke of the country is here.

Wu Ming is here.

Wu Ming had just received the imperial edict to go on an expedition, and before he had fully prepared, he heard that something had happened to Ningguo Mansion.

She actually didn't expect it to be so soon. Their initial plan was to find someone to guide Jia Rong to the brothel when Jia Rong was grounded and ready to get engaged after the year. These days, Jia Rong's diet was deliberately arranged, and then the final autopsy The report will only be a sudden death from cerebral hemorrhage caused by drunkenness. Who knew that he could not bear the loneliness so much and ran out secretly, because the subtle effect of diet made him irritable and irritable. A life was returned, but the person was also crippled.

She gritted her teeth expressionlessly, even though she was wearing casual clothes, the cold demeanor of a soldier made people tremble and dare not speak.

After Wu Ming greeted Mrs. Zhang, she went directly to Jia Zhen's room in the outer courtyard. At this time, she didn't bother to cover up. A handy medicine box popped out with a flick of her wrist, but the medicine box wasn't for saving lives. , is full of murderous poison.

Jia Zhen turned her head and saw that she waved all the servants back, squatted down and opened a white box of unknown material, revealing the colorful vials inside. Is it expected?"

He seldom called Uncle Wu Ming's grandfather. In the past, he didn't dare to disdain him, but now he couldn't tell whether it was ridicule or intimacy seeking sympathy.

Wu Ming had no expression on her face, calmly turned over the bottles and cans, and dispensed the medicine swiftly. Jia Zhen watched quietly, as if foreseeing the rest of her life in those colorful little bottles.

Jia Zhen stared at her for a long time before saying, "Duke Rong, actually, isn't it Duke Rong?"

Wu Ming paused and said calmly, "What crazy things are you talking about?"

Jia Zhen smiled, and there were nauseating grunts in her throat, as if there was a backlog of phlegm inside, which made people feel uncomfortable and disgusted, as if she would suffocate in the next second.He took a breath, and then said with difficulty: "When my father was there, my uncle taught me martial arts, but I was stubborn and didn't like to learn more. Later, when my father left, I happened to see you teaching Zhu Erlian a few times. Son……"

He paused, and laughed loudly: "I don't know what kind of a powerful monster it is to take away Rong Guogong's house!"

Wu Ming knew that he was just guessing and had no real evidence, so he was relieved and said lightly, "You think too much."

She never thought of covering it up from the beginning. Anyway, Jia Daishan has a high status and is a man. Even if the wives and concubines who are close to him find problems, they dare not tell them.

Yes and no, what's the difference.

Wu Ming mixed the medicine together. This is a kind of stimulant medicine. The current medicine can't detect it. At most, it can only find out that he was too emotional and caused a fire. It may not be very useful for ordinary people, but for For a person like Jia Zhen who has been tortured countless times by medicinal food and beauty, this is an excellent chronic poison.

She stood up, put the box back into the system space without hesitation, stepped forward to hold Jia Zhen's shoulder, and tried to pour him down.

Jia Zhen knew that it was useless to resist, not to mention that half of his body was paralyzed due to a stroke. Even if he was still in his prime, he could not resist this general who had fought for half his life, so when Wu Ming handed over the bottle, he was very obedient. drank it down.

It should be to deceive people, the effect of the medicine did not occur so quickly, Jia Zhen leaned back, her eyes were confused and said: "I am the grandson of my uncle, he used to have high hopes for me, and he always wanted to teach me , my father always protects me, so I also become contemptuous, although my uncle is annoyed, but because I am his direct blood relative, he has to give me chances again and again."

"I thought that even if you were dissatisfied with me, you wouldn't strike so quickly," Jia Zhen felt a burning pain in her throat, as if she was about to lose her voice, and her temples were throbbing, her heart was on fire. His consciousness began to blur, and he said forcefully: "You are very similar to him, but you never thought of giving me a chance."

Wu Ming thought it was funny, and didn't look at what he did in the future. When it came to the end, she felt wronged that she didn't give him a chance, but who would give Qin Keqing and those girls who were spoiled by him a chance?

She suddenly lost the mood to talk nonsense with Jia Zhen, and said coldly: "In the next life, take care of your lower/half/body."

After finishing the speech, he walked away without giving him a chance to say another word.
