[Red Mansion] Mother Jia has a paralyzed face

After Wang finished speaking, she was about to throw up her sleeves and rush out. Jia Zhu hurriedly caught up with Ban's mother, "Mom, it will definitely be embarrassing for my father to make trouble in front of grandma, why don't I go and persuade my father first~"

"You can't." Wang said mercilessly: "You have no way to persuade him. He is a person who will never change without being taught. Your grandmother has to come forward."

"But grandma was already a little dissatisfied with father..."

When Wang saw Jia Zhu and wanted to excuse Jia Zheng, she sighed and said, "Your father will sway me even if I don't know much, but since you know what your father did wrong, you must stop him as soon as possible, otherwise there will inevitably be changes. You ..."

Mrs. Wang didn't dislike her son, but it seemed that Zhu'er and Dafang's Jia Hu had similar personalities, but in terms of decisiveness, there were still many shortcomings, Zhu'er was a little indecisive.

"You can't decide on external affairs in the future, so talk to your brother and wife and listen to other people's opinions."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Wang didn't say anything anymore, and rushed all the way to her mother-in-law's yard.

Zhang Rui and Jia Min are playing with Rarity in the room at this time, and Rarity can already utter the indistinct sound of "big, big, ma, ma", so the two want him to practice talking more some words.

When Mrs. Wang came in, she saw her sister-in-law there. Although she had made up her mind to sue her mother-in-law, she still couldn't open her mouth in front of her sister-in-law. She didn't want to make her think that she was having a bad time in front of Jia Min.

So, talking about him, Jia Min is a smart and eye-catching person. After saying a few words to his second sister-in-law, he said goodbye to his mother, carried his son and took away the maid.

As soon as Jia Min left, Mrs. Wang couldn't hold back any longer. She threw herself to her mother-in-law's leg and hugged her calf, crying, "Mother, you have to make decisions for me and Xuan'er~ my daughter-in-law can't live anymore!"

Zhang Rui was stiffened by her sudden movement, and he raised his leg a little unbearably, trying to pull it out of Wang's hand, "I have something to say, why are you acting like this?"

"Mother, forgive me, my daughter-in-law is rude~" Wiping her face with a handkerchief, Wang pretended to be sad and said, "My daughter-in-law really can't help herself."

Shouldn't the man who can't help himself shed a few tears to meet the occasion?Wang wiped her eyes for a long time, but she didn't see any water. Isn't it too fake?It's strange that Mrs. Zhang always dislikes her for being shameless.

"Cough~" Straightening his clothes, Zhang Rui asked blankly, "What happened? Tell the truth, and I will make the decision for you."

At this time, Mrs. Wang didn't care about pretending, and said worriedly to her mother-in-law: "Mother, my husband suddenly asked me how Xuan'er's marriage was going yesterday, and then asked me not to help her look after her, saying that she wanted Xuan'er Participate in the general election, if you don't win the general election, you will participate in the minor election, in short, you must be sent to the palace!"

"Is he sick?!"

Upon hearing her mother-in-law's words, Mrs. Wang immediately nodded in agreement and said, "My daughter-in-law said the same thing." Then it was realized that the opposite was Jia Zheng's mother, and she immediately looked at her mother-in-law vigilantly in silence.

Zhang Rui didn't pay attention to Wang Shi's words at all, stood up and paced back and forth, and then shouted to the door: "Come on, call Guard Lin over."

The mandarin duck outside heard the old lady's voice, responded loudly, and asked the little maid to call for someone outside.

"Mother, don't be so serious, right?"

"What?" Zhang Rui looked at Wang inexplicably.

Wang said hesitantly: "Didn't you ask the guards to get the master?"

Zhang Rui was speechless, "I'm not a bandit, who should I take? I'm asking someone to find out who Zheng'er has been in contact with outside recently."

"You mean...the master might be plotted against?!" Mrs. Wang couldn't believe it.

Zhang Rui was a little weird about her fuss, "Of course it is true that he is stupid, but you don't just think so, do you?"

Mrs. Wang laughed a few times in embarrassment, and then covered it up: "No way, my daughter-in-law just didn't think so much for a while, it's mother-in-law, you have a far-sightedness."

Don't think that she didn't see it when she flattered her, that's what Wang thought!Zhang Rui has a headache, what's going on with the Jia family now?Men are so unpopular!

"Use your brain when you have nothing to do, don't leave everything to others, it's almost rusty."

After Guard Lin arrived, Zhang Rui ordered him to check on Jia Zheng, and stopped him when he was about to leave, "By the way, check to see if the old man has done anything strange recently."

Guard Lin hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Madam, what is so strange?" After all, the old man is different from other people's masters in daily life.

"..." Zhang Rui thought for a while, and said, "Forget it, you should also focus on finding out who he has been in contact with. If there is anything unusual that is different from usual, you should pay special attention."

"Yes."

Watching Guard Lin leave, Wang asked her mother-in-law curiously, "Why do you want to check on Brother?"

"By the way." Zhang Rui didn't intend to explain to her, and said casually: "If anything is found out, tell him, it's all because of his brother."

"..."

For the next two days, Mrs. Wang couldn't control Jia Zheng's black face, but every time she went to pay her respects to her mother-in-law and saw that her mother-in-law treated her second son as usual without any difference, Mrs. Wang said that she really did not practice enough.

And this kind of tranquility was about to be broken until Guard Lin checked and clarified the report.

"You mean... the people of the Zhen family have seen the eldest and second child? Just to let the young lady of the Jia family enter the palace?"

"Back to the old lady, yes, I asked the servants around the two masters. Half a month ago, a member of the Zhen family in the capital visited the elder master with a gift, and the second master had contact with that person again yesterday. "

"Boss refused?"

Guard Lin lowered his head and replied, "The Grand Master has accepted the gift, and then... made an engagement for Miss Second."

Very good, this shameless look is very Jia Amnesty.

Zhang Rui restrained the corners of his lips from curling up, and asked Guard Lin to leave first, and then sent someone to invite Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng to come over.

While waiting, Zhang Rui knocked on the table and thought, so the Zhen family wanted to persuade Jia Yu to enter the palace at first, but Jia Amnesty refused, and then found Jia Zheng, so it seems that Jia Zheng is short-hearted .

Jia Zheng came first. Zhang Rui glanced at Hu Po behind him, and Hu Po immediately replied, "The Elder Master is not in the yard, he said he went out to drink, and I asked someone to convey it for me."

"Well, you all go down first."

When only Zhang Rui and Jia Zheng were left in the room, Zhang Rui asked calmly, "Do you know why I'm looking for you today?"

"Son... did you do something wrong?"

"Eh?" Zhang Rui looked at Jia Zheng in surprise, "You are very self-aware~"

Jia Zheng choked, not knowing how to answer.

Zhang Rui didn't keep teasing him, and asked directly: "Tell me, what did the Zhen family say to you? It made you feel obscene."

"Mother, why did you say that? My son is also thinking about the future of our Jia family. Besides, what the elder brother of the Zhen family said is not unreasonable. A daughter who was born in a family like ours has already enjoyed wealth, so she naturally wants to make some contributions to the family. , not to mention that with our backing and Concubine Zhen willing to take care of her, she won't suffer too much after entering the palace."

Jia Zheng's idea was not a special case in ancient times. Many big families had such intentions in nurturing their daughters. If there were another reason, although it was more utilitarian, Zhang Rui would not be too harsh, just because it was the Zhen family. .

The Zhen family also knew what was going on in their minds. In the current situation, if they make a mistake, it will be impossible to recover.

"Have you forgotten who Lian'er suffered that crime for?"

"Mother, the Zhen family is also a victim, and they would never have thought that someone would take advantage of the situation to do evil, and thus damage their reputation. If they are alienated because of this, it would be too chilling."

"Aren't you worried about making me cold?" Zhang Rui was about to continue, when Yuanyang shouted outside the door: "Madam, the elder is here."

"Let him in."

As soon as Jia She came in, he inspected the expressions of his mother and second brother. The mother's expression was as expressionless as usual, but the expression of the second brother was a bit embarrassing. This made him feel relieved, since The second brother was scolded, so it was definitely not him who made the mistake, he and the second brother never had any common interests.

"Mother, I kept you waiting for a long time, but as soon as the servant came to look for me, my son immediately left his friend and rushed back."

Zhang Rui nodded, and stopped talking to Jia Amnesty, but asked Jia Zheng: "Besides those grandiose reasons, tell me the truth, did the Zhen family promise you anything?"

As soon as Jia Amnesty heard about Zhen's family, he immediately understood what was going on, and immediately asked his mother's attention, "My son knows!"

"Say."

"The person from the Zhen family told me that the crown prince has fallen, and the prince who is the most beloved today was born to a girl from their Zhen family. If I want, Yu'er can refer to the past as a side concubine and give birth to a son and a half daughter in the future. Our Jia family is a serious uncle of the country, and it is not difficult to restore the glory of the past." Jia Amnesty spit even more while talking, "He also said that I can become a serious Duke of Rong in the future, and will bless future generations."

Zhang Rui turned to Jia Zheng again, and asked, "What about you? How did I tell you? To be promoted to a noble position?"

"Yes." Jia Zheng nodded, no longer hiding anything.

After hearing this, Zhang Rui felt that the Zhen family was really ridiculous!Actually, the throne is already considered a certainty. The prince born to Concubine Zhen is neither the elder nor the first son. His age and status are not comparable to the previous prince, and his talents and abilities are not much. He is just a young adult who can behave It's just his prince, but he even started jumping up and down.

"I will absolutely not allow the matter of sending Jia's daughter into the palace, but since you are self-motivated, I, a mother, will spare no effort to help you."

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng were a little puzzled when he heard this, Zhang Rui continued: "Zheng'er has been in the Ministry of Industry for many years now, and you are still doing things practically, but you haven't been promoted for many years, maybe the Ministry of Industry is not suitable for you, how about you?" I entrusted my relationship to let you go out for a few years, really do some practical things for the people, and in the future you will get a few A in the assessment, and it will be a matter of time before you get promoted."

"Mother? What you said is true?!" Jia Zheng was very pleasantly surprised, and immediately knelt down to thank him, "Please trouble my mother for worrying about me. My son will definitely live up to my mother's expectations."

"You don't need to pay attention to the Zhen family's affairs, I will explain to them personally, you go back first~"

When Jia Zheng left, Jia Amnesty still couldn't trust his mother's benevolent eyes, and his expression was a little indescribable.

Then Zhang Rui said to Jia She: "Go back and tell your daughter-in-law, no matter who you ask to help with sports, just say that your second brother is willing to do his best for His Majesty, and if there is a suitable position, let him go. Remember, where The poorest place is your second brother's lifelong pursuit."
