Grandmother Jia was furious. She thought that Jia Zhen was so shameless and had caused the matter to become like this. She also blamed Nanny Lai for making her lose face.
"Forget it, things have come to this. Brother Zhen, you should go back first. This old woman is also tired.”Grandmother Jia was sending the guests off.
When Jia Zhen heard this, she hurriedly retreated. However, she thought to herself, Old Lady, you are one of your own people. I can punish you however I want. It has nothing to do with me. Anyway, I got the silver, but it was a little too good for Jia Xuan. It was such a large sum of silver, Jia Zhen's heart ached so much that she didn't want it.
"Lai Er can't stay in the East Mansion anymore. He should do some chores in the West Mansion now.”Grandmother Jia glanced at Nanny Lai and said. He still had to protect the Lai family. After all, they were his concubines.
"Shuqing, it's time to teach this person a lesson.”Grandmother Jia then looked at Madam Wang. It was not that Second Daughter-in-law did not know about this, but she did not know how much she had been fooled by the servants.
"It was daughter-in-law who did not consider things properly and was taken advantage of by the servants.”In her heart, she hated Jia Zhen for ruining her source of wealth, but she also hated this group of servants for being insatiable. She knew that an egg cost 100 wen, but she didn't expect it to only cost one wen outside. Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and glanced at Zhou Ruijia, scaring her so much that her face turned pale.
"Mm, I'm tired too. You guys go ahead.”
Lady Xing thought, Is this the end? The second branch was really a treasure in the old lady's heart. If this was the First household, they would be skinned alive. Although she felt indignant, there was nothing she could do. Even Wang Xifeng had her heart set on the second branch. Since the old master had no choice, she could only complain in her heart.
Madam Wang glanced at Madam Xing disdainfully and then returned to her courtyard. She thought that as long as Baoyu was around, the second branch would have nothing to be afraid of. He was the old lady's precious baby.
After listening to Fried Bean's report, he thought to himself that it seemed that the status of the second branch was unbreakable in the old lady's eyes. The reason why he instigated Jia Zhen to raid the Lai family was to see how Grandmother Jia would deal with it. The result was similar to what he had expected. The big matter was reduced to a small matter, and the small matter was reduced to nothing.
Jia She of the First household only knew how to be greedy and lecherous. As long as there was money to spend, he did not care about anything else. Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng only cared about currying favor with the second branch and the old lady, hoping to inherit the title safely. However, did they not think that Madam Wang would allow them to inherit the title smoothly? In Madam Wang's opinion. The entire Rong Mansion belonged to her son, Baoyu. Ever since Wang Xifeng got married, she had no children and only had a daughter. It could be seen how brilliant Madam Wang's methods were.
Jia She's eldest son, Jia Hu, fell into the water and died early. His wife found out about the difficult labor and gave birth to Jia Lian before she passed away. How could this be so coincidental? There might be some hidden secrets. Normally, Jia Hu was the eldest grandson of Rong Country's family. She had a lot of servants around her. How could she fall into the water? Coincidentally, there was no one to serve her. But who was the one who cleaned up the mess? Thinking of something, Jia Xuan felt a chill in his heart.
Think about it. In the entire Rong Mansion, only Grandmother Jia could do this. However, he did not know if Grandmother Jia knew about it in advance or if she had found out about it and covered it up to protect the Second household and not let the family's dirty laundry spread.
" How much did you receive?" asked Madam Wang. You actually moved them to cover up." Madam Wang asked expressionlessly.
"Taitai, this servant indeed received some benefits. Actually, this servant thought that the servants also needed to eat. Letting them receive some benefits would also help Taitai do things. This servant is not doing my job well, please punish me.”After saying that, Zhou Rui knelt on the ground and lowered his head without saying a word.
After hearing Zhou Rui's words, Mrs. Wang's expression became a little better. "Get up. This isn't all your fault.”
Zhou Rui wiped the sweat off his forehead and thought to himself, I've finally passed this round.
"Now that you've been keeping a close eye on the kitchen, the old lady also knows about this. Recently, everything has been restored to its original state. If anyone dares to make a move, send them away.”
"Yes, this servant understands." Zhou Ruijia replied and quickly left.
Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian's room." This Third Brother isn't easy to get along with. Do you think that idiot Jia Zhen knows all this?，Even if he knew, did he have the guts to go against the old ancestor?。”Xifeng Wang said disdainfully.
"You mean, Jia Xuan is standing behind Big Brother Zhen?”Jia Lian asked.
"If it wasn't for Third Brother instigating this behind the scenes, I would have twisted my head off and turned it into a chamber pot for you!”Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes at Jia Lian.
"What does this have to do with Third Brother? What did he do it for?" Jia Lian was puzzled.
"Of course, because of what happened at Rongqing Hall a few days ago, he is warning Aunt that she has no right to interfere in his matters.”Wang Xifeng continued," Don't provoke him. We can't afford to offend him."”
"Look at what you're saying. I'm not stupid. Third Brother didn't care about the wealth of Rong Mansion. He was a first-class person and did not care about the title of Rong Mansion. Why would he provoke him?。”Jia Lian laughed.
"I'm relieved. We should spend more time with Third Brother. He is the God of Wealth, and he can feed us for a long time.”Wang Xifeng pointed at Jia Lian's eyebrows.
Jia Xuan had lunch in his courtyard, then went to Lin Daiyu's place.
"Third Master is here." At the door, a little girl shouted into the house. Jia Xuan gave her a few silver nudes. The happy little girl couldn't see her eyes.
"Why are you here? Aren't you going to do your big thing?" Lin Daiyu asked with her eyes half-opened as she lay lazily on the reclining couch.
Jia Xuan looked at the sleeping beauty, but he said," Nothing is more important than looking at Yu 'er.”
"Nonsense! Is there something wrong with Third Brother?" Lin Daiyu was about to get up. However, Jia Xuan held her down, causing Lin Daiyu to blush.
"Bah! If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you touching me? Don't mess around anymore. Be careful.”After saying that, she laughed.
"Yu 'er, I just wanted you to not get up. I was anxious and acted rashly. "If I have any thoughts of blasphemy, call me…" Before he could finish, Lin Daiyu covered him with her hand.
"What's the point of saying all this nonsense? I naturally believe you. Since Father has promised me to you, I will be yours sooner or later. It's just that although our marriage is set, there are some things that can't be too much. Otherwise, I'll become that shameless bad woman.”Daiyu blushed.
At this moment, Zi Juan came in with tea. Seeing the atmosphere in the room, she left with a red face and closed the door behind her.
