old lady in red

Shi Mei smiled slightly, and threw out another thunder: "Xie'er, your eldest brother has found the account book, you send someone to meet him."

Jia She was pleasantly surprised when he heard this.

Finding the account book means that Jia Dailu's public case has ended perfectly, and Jia Jing and Jia Amnesty have won a big victory.

All that's left is to reshuffle the deck.

Some people rejoice and some worry!

All the clan elders in the ancestral hall were astonished. Although everyone put on a calm look, it seemed that this was within everyone's expectations.

In fact, they are their own stomachs.

The unfavored patriarchs headed by Jia Daiyu all turned their mouths up: "You have today too!"

Several of Jia Dailu's followers and confidantes, Jia Daiwang and several patriarchs, felt very turbulent in their hearts.

All of them tightened their mouths and clenched their fists, trying their best to suppress the anger that was about to erupt!

Everyone knows that Jia Dailu is over.

Once the emperor and the courtiers, I don't know what will happen in the future!

Looking at Shi Mei, she was shocked and frightened, this woman is really insidious!

Since I knew that the patriarch had won a complete victory, but I have to wait until they are stupid before saying it?

Isn't this deceiving people on purpose!

Jia Daiwang was furious in his heart: This old lady is really bad!

When Jia Ban heard this, his body trembled even more. His father's evidence was convincing, and their brothers were finished!

At such a time, there was a commotion of carriages and horses outside the door, but it was Jia Jing who returned.

A group of people were overjoyed, and brought a dozen boxes to the ancestral hall.

Shi Mei stood up with a smile.

She guessed right, Jia Jing is going to be a money-spreading boy.

The three brothers Jia Jing, Jia Amnesty, and Jia Zheng entered the door. They saluted Shi Mei and greeted Shi Mei, all of them beaming with joy.

Shi Mei said: "Okay, the important place of the ancestral hall is not the place for me to stay, I should go back, I'm afraid I can't finish copying the scriptures for today."

Jia Jing, Jia Amnesty, and Jia Zheng bowed together: "Mother (aunt) don't worry, as long as mother (aunt) doesn't dislike it, my son (nephew) is willing to bear a few volumes!"

Shi Mei smiled all over her face: "If you don't dislike it, how can you dislike it!"

Shi Mei looked at the rejoicing clansmen, but none of them even glanced at Jia Ban.All when he is air!

Shi Mei sighed, human feelings are cold and warm, just like ancient and modern.More icing on the cake, less charcoal in the snow!

When people have to recite words, then Mrs. Li is also a rare sober person.

Bringing down Jia Dailu, the Jia Ban brothers also counted as meritorious service.

This matter cannot be praised in public, but it cannot be compensated.

Shi Mei is involved in it, so it's not easy to let her go.

Shi Mei supported Jia Ban with her own hands, and said, "Good boy, get up.

Your father is your father and you are you.

We are all close relatives by blood, this is the ancestral hall and family temple, not the cold court and yamen, we are relatives, we will not get involved!

As long as you really have nothing to do with smuggling, I guarantee that the patriarch will not implicate innocent people! "

Jia Jing knew that this was the aunt expressing her opinion on how to deal with Bafang.

Jia Jing immediately stood up and said, "Auntie is right. Distinguishing rewards and punishments is a sign of prosperity. Brother Jia Ban, your uncle Luo Xiucai has already complained to the head of the clan, and the head of the clan has already promised you Luo Xiucai that he will handle it fairly. , never favoritism!"

Jia Ban's eyes were full of tears: "Uncle respect, I assure you that our brothers are absolutely not contaminated at all. If there are lies, I will die a terrible death!"

Jia Daixing and Jia Daizhou heard the word "Zhulian" at this time, and suddenly realized that Jia Dailu's crimes were exposed, and they were also included in Zhulian.

Hearing Jia Ban swear again, they became more and more uncomfortable.

Jia Daixing had originally sympathized with Jia Ban, but now he hurried forward and said, "Oh, it's all uncle's negligence, I didn't even see you kneeling. You are too honest a child, everyone in our clan has eyes, if you don't It will be good or bad, your father's crimes have nothing to do with you!"

At this time, Xing was awakened by the noise.She has already understood that her treasure has been exposed and her account books have been searched.

Eight rooms are over!

She struggled desperately, wanting to pounce on Shi Mei desperately!

The healthy woman held down Xing vigorously, her mouth was gagged, and she couldn't even yell.He could only watch helplessly as Shimei walked out of the ancestral hall like a crowd of stars.

But she still wants to stay here in this humiliating way, accepting the ruling of the clan association.

The Xing family has been prosperous for decades, and it is really not reconciled to being defeated by one move.

There was madness in her eyes: You all wait, when my master comes back, all of you will die!

In the evening, Jia Jing and Jia She and Jia Zheng went to Rongfu together.

The eight-room case ended.

Jia Dailu sells salt and tea privately, which is a criminal law.

In order to be vigilant to future generations, Jia's clan unanimously passed the expulsion of Jia Dailu and Jia Zhai's father and son.

Luo Shuqian's proposal to relegate the Xing family was rejected by Jia Jing.

As compensation, Jia Jing agreed that Jia Ban would inherit the property of Bafang as the eldest son and be one of the elders of the twelve clans.

In view of the disappearance of Jia Dailu and Jia Zhai, the Xing family is temporarily detained in the family temple, and the healthy woman and the twelve mistresses take turns to take care of them.

Jia Zhai's daughter-in-law, because the two daughters under her knees are young, stayed in the eighth room temporarily, and was taken care of by the Li family and the Xu family. She was expelled together when Jia Dailu and his son returned home.

The dossier on Bafang and his son's expulsion of the family will be sent to the Yamen for record tomorrow.

All the floating wealth of Bafang is collected by the clan and distributed equally to all clan relatives.

The Jia family has been established for four generations, and the old twelve has branched into 110 and eight households.

Each family has a thousand taels of silver.

The Jia Ban brothers also have a share.

The remaining [-] silver will be included in the clan and used for ethnology and the academic examinations for the children of the clan.

Jia Jing accepted Shi Mei's proposal, instead of setting up a acting patriarch, the twelve elders would co-manage the clan affairs.

Shi Mei waited until Jia pardoned Jia Zheng and returned to the grave to guard the tomb before returning Jia Jing's kit.

However, Jia Jing opened the kit face to face: "Auntie, you never imagined how greedy Jia Dailu is. He must have been frightened by the Wufang incident, so he exchanged the silver for banknotes. There is actually a full 50 yuan here, all of which are worthless." It's an official ticket. There are still 18 in silver and countless pieces of jewelry. No wonder His Majesty gnashes his teeth every time he mentions salt merchants, ordering them to donate. I used to think that His Majesty was too ruthless. Splashing wealth and wealth."

Shi Mei reminded: "The Zhen family is in the way, Zhen Guifei's energy should not be underestimated, and my nephew has to think about how to deal with it.

Nothing else, right now the sale of private salt is lucrative, and he earns even more without us.I'm afraid that one day something will happen and the Zhen family will sell our family.

Therefore, I plan to divide the money of the fifth house into three parts, one part will fill the treasury, and I will buy land next to Rongning Street for your second brother, and build a three-entry house, so that his descendants will also have a part of the foundation in the future.

The second part, I am going to buy the sacrificial land for the education expenses of the descendants of the Jia clan.

In this way, even if the two prefectures of Rongning and Ningxia are unlucky, the descendants can still cultivate and study the heirlooms in order to make a comeback. "

Jia Jing got up and bowed when he heard the words: "Auntie has far-reaching plans, and my nephew is too late!"

Shi Mei waved her hand: "It's not my intention, but your uncle tried to talk about it before he was alive. However, we still have debts in the household department, and it has been difficult to implement. Therefore, I am going to take this third share to settle for your uncle. The muddled account of the Ministry of Finance.

You also know that your uncle has often taken the blame for others these years.What I know is 20, but I don't know how much there is in private.

I'm afraid that your Ning Mansion also has a lot of muddled debts.I think that after my nephew returns to Beijing, it is better to learn more about the debts of the two governments and make plans early. "

Jia Jing said: "Since Auntie knows the reason for the debts of the two governments, why should she take the blame for others?"

Shi Mei said: "Your Majesty did not order the two governments to pay the debts for his son. The two governments' debts are our investment in the future emperor. Now that the crown prince fails, we lost the bet, and we are willing to accept the bet.

This is one of them.

Second, the money came from an improper source, so we can't use this illegal money.If you send it to pay off the debt, you can launder the stolen money.

We will not be surprised if something happens in the future.Using salt and tea to pay off the debt for his son, if he still wants to lose face, he should do it for us.

In order not to tear the face, everyone is embarrassed. "

Jia Jing was in awe when he heard the words, and bowed to Shi Mei again: "Thank you, Auntie, for your guidance."

Immediately, his face turned pale: "I plan to share the 30 yuan with my aunt...

If it wasn't for my aunt's timely reminder, my nephew would still be in the dark, without these resources.

Now, you see..."

Shi Mei smiled and said: "I accept your wish, when I return to Beijing, if the hole in the Rong Mansion is too big to fill, Auntie will talk to you again!"

Jia Jing put away the bank note: "In this case, my nephew will keep it first, and we will discuss it after returning to Beijing."

Then, when Jia Jing talked about Jia Zhen, he was very happy: "My nephew has made an agreement with Brother Yu. The agreement will be made in May this year, and we will get married in May next year. At that time, my aunt will also return to Kyoto. It's just right."

Shi Mei was also very happy: "That's good, what about the girl from the Yang family?"

Jia Jing said: "It's going to be given to Jia Huang of the family. He's a side branch of the Ning Mansion, but our husband and wife will buy a dowry for him in the future. We just need to take care of him after we get married."

Jia Juan?

Shi Mei had some impression of this name, but it was not very familiar to people.

Jia Jing said again: "My nephew is going to go to the cemetery to accompany the two brothers, and guard the tomb for my uncle for three months. My uncle treated me like a parent and son during his lifetime. I want to do my best for my uncle, and I ask my aunt to agree. Send food, and prepare a portion for my nephew!"

What could Shi Mei say, but she agreed gratefully.

There is no woman in Zuo Ning Mansion to take care of him, and he will be cold-hearted when he goes back, so why not study and practice martial arts with Jia She and his brothers.Jia Jing also has someone to take care of his life, and Jia Zheng also has a companion when he is studying.

After that, Shi Mei sent three food boxes to the grave every day.The difference is that Jia Jing's meals always have one or two meaty dishes.

The girls reached an agreement, and Jia Jing was about to leave when Shi Mei suddenly remembered something: "What happened to Jia Zhai's outer room?"

Jia Jingyan said: "This matter has nothing to do with my nephew. Don't worry, Auntie. I have sent someone to watch over that kid. The lives of Jia Zhai's mother and child in the outer room are safe.

Thinking about this matter makes me angry, it is really embarrassing. "

Shi Mei frowned: "Is there something wrong with the outer room?"

Jia Jingdao: "The kidnapper is actually the son of the outer room's fiancé Ruan's family. He fell ill on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Originally, the Ruan family boy was also there. It was he who cooperated with the outsider and found someone to kidnap the outer room's son."

Shi Mei didn't understand: "Why is this? This kind of woman who easily changes things for money has already given birth to a son. Does he still want to reunite?"

Jia Jing shook his head: "According to my manpower report, that kid Jia Zhai already knew that the outer room hadn't broken up with his fiancé in front of him. It is said that the two met in the outer room and even fought, but the outer room blocked it. Zhai didn't kill him.

The boy's purpose was to get his wife back, and insisted that the son was the son of the Ruan family.

Jia Zhai, on the other hand, seems to have been bewitched, insisting that the child is his.It was convenient for us to take his father to Wujia Village to snatch people. We didn't need to do anything inside the city, but directly caught Jia Dailu outside the city.

This kid Jia Zhai is also vicious, his father was arrested, but she didn't care about it, and still went to Wujia Village.

My people are watching.The people of Wujia Village dare not do anything to him.I claim he is missing, but I can't afford to lose this man.

With a green hat on his head, he happily pays to raise his son for others!

I was thinking, I might as well send him to dig coal, so as not to embarrass myself! "

Shi Mei never thought it would be such a farce, is Jia Zhai thinking about his son crazy?

Then there is Jia Dailu, Jia Ban's son is dignified and upright, he wants to pour out his heart and lungs to a grandson of unknown origin, isn't this sick?

He should never see the sun for the rest of his life!

Shi Mei didn't have the slightest sympathy for Jia Zhai: "You can deal with Jia Zhai as you like, but his wife won't guard him. His two girls must be dealt with properly."

Jia Jing nodded his head: "I can save this day, it must be properly arranged. There are also members of the clan who are barren, not to mention the Jia Ban brothers. It should not be difficult for Bafang to support two daughters."

Sister Shimei asked Jia Zhai how to deal with it in the end.I haven't heard any news from their father and son.

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, Wufang Jia Daixiang asked to see Jia Jing.

This day was the third day Jia Jing showed up.This shows that Wufang's heart is not dead.

Shi Mei, who was a little hesitant at first, finally made a decision and told Jia She: "The fifth room is a white-eyed wolf, you can't stay, you leave immediately, people like them will make trouble if they have money, as long as they don't starve to death."

At this time, Shi Mei regretted not confiscating all the property of Wufang.

A group of people who don't know touching things don't deserve to be treated kindly!

Jia Daixiang begged to see Jia Jing but was refused, and stayed outside the grave for three full days.

Jia Jing reckoned that three days in advance would be enough to settle all the land contracts before Wufang arrived.

Only then did I take the time to meet Jia Daixiang.

Jia Jing avoided talking about Jia Tan's problem, and directly presented Jia Daixiang's criminal evidence of selling illegal salt: "Uncle Wu, let's take a look at these documents first. I don't see Uncle Wu because I am afraid that Uncle Wu will be embarrassed, so I can save face for you.

Eighth Uncle is expelled from the family, Auntie is lenient enough for you.

What do you still want?

You see, are you going to set off immediately by yourself, or do you want your nephew to call a clan meeting?

You decide! "

Jia Jing mercilessly tore off the last fig leaf: Wufang is just a white-eyed wolf. The Rongfu left him a way out, but he didn't appreciate it, and even came to appeal!

Jia Daixiang's last hope of staying in Jinling was shattered.

Jia Daixiang knew that their fifth room would never return to their hometown in this life!

Unexpectedly, when they arrived in the Eastern Province, those forested valleys that he despised would no longer belong to him.
