"Bah! I'll beat you up, you mischievous brat! Leave my place quickly. I still have to pay my respects to the old lady.”Lin Daiyu blushed even more.
When Jia Xuan brought Xiang Ling out of Daiyu's courtyard, he saw from afar that Fried Beans and the others were peeking out.
"Third Master!" Three jogged over and shouted.
"Miss Lin didn't do anything to Third Master, right?”Fried Beans circled Jia Xuan.
"Go ahead!" Jia Xuan knocked on Fried Bean's little head.
"To our new home?" Fried Bean's eyes lit up. Stir-fried beans really liked the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion.
"Go ahead and be crazy. If I really provoke you, Miss Lin, one day, you'll have a lot more.”Jia Xuan said unhappily.
"No way. Miss Lin has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She won't really punish us. Miss Lin only looks powerful but has a good heart.”Fried Bean said proudly.
The master and servant chatted and laughed along the way, making the servant girls on the way envious.
In Ningguo Manor, Madam You looked at the miserable faces of Jia Zhen and his son." What's going on? How did this happen?" Which bastard did this? Is there any law?”
"He was carried over from the West Mansion like this. He said that for some reason, he was thrown at the gate of the West Mansion. There's also Second Master Lian." Lady You's personal maid, Yin Die, said.
"Have you seen the imperial physician?"
"I've already asked the imperial physician to take a look at the West Mansion. He said that there's nothing serious, but it looks dangerous. He didn't hurt his insides, so he just needed to recuperate.”Yin Die continued.
"Do you know who did it?" Qin Keqing asked.
"No, but the Second Mistress of the West Mansion said that Jia Xuan caused trouble everywhere and got revenge. She said that the two masters of the East Mansion also took the blame for Jia Xuan.”Yin Die replied.
"Taitai, in daughter-in-law's opinion, the words of the Second Taitai of the West Residence might not be trustworthy.”Qin Keqing said.
"What do you mean?" Lady You asked.
"Madam, think about it. If Third Uncle was the one who caused the trouble, how could the other party's revenge be so light? Even if we take the blame for Third Uncle, how can we afford to offend Third Uncle's enemy now? In the end, it was better not to know. The Second Mistress of the West Mansion is trying to stir up our East Mansion's dissatisfaction with Third Uncle. So that I can stand on her side." Qin Keqing analyzed.
"What a good scheme!" " Even if we stand on her side," Madam You said," her precious jade will not inherit Rong Manor. It was impossible for her to seize the title. There was still Jia Lian in the manor.”
Qin Keqing, Bao Zhu, Rui Zhu, and Yin Die went to guard the door. Then, she whispered," Ever since Jia Lian got married, he only had one daughter. After that, there was no news. Madam, don't you think it's strange?"。”
"You mean…that's her niece.”You shi said in disbelief.
"For her own son, she would do anything!”
"Even if Jia Lian doesn't have a son, it's not Baoyu's turn. There's still Jia Cong there.”Mrs. You was puzzled.
"He's just a bastard son. Any illness can take his life.”Qin Keqing looked at the door again and lowered her voice." Madam, do you know how Lian Er's eldest brother died?”
"Didn't he fall into the water and die?" Madam You asked in puzzlement.
"Falling into the water? Although I hadn't married yet, I could guess. Madam, think about it. As the eldest grandson of the Rong family, how could there be no one to serve him? With so many maids and old women watching, could anything happen? Even if she accidentally fell into the water, how could she not be saved in time? It was said that Jia Hu secretly ran to the lake herself. How was that possible? He was just a five-year-old child, how could he avoid the eyes of the servant maids? Perhaps someone had led them there!”Qin Keqing took a breath and continued," I heard that after the incident, the people who served Jia Hu were either sold or beaten to death. When Jia She returned, there was nothing to be found. Madam, even the eldest grandson died. What do you think Jia Cong, a bastard son, can do?”In fact, there was something that Qin Keqing did not say, and that was that Grandmother Jia might not be unaware of this matter. For Madam Wang to be able to do it so flawlessly, it might not be because Grandmother Jia was helping to clean up the mess. Of course, this was Qin Keqing's guess.
Madam You couldn't help but shiver when she heard this." Then Second Mistress is so vicious? She had been eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha every day, but her heart was dark!”
"Therefore, it's better for the East Mansion to stay out of the West Mansion's affairs.”Qin Keqing said.
"But we can't make Old Master's decision. Old Master has been clinging to the West Mansion all these years. Back then, when he sent Yuan Chun into the palace, Old Master also put in a lot of effort. Wasn't it just hoping that Yuan Chun would be favored and bask in some light? How is it possible for you to make him stay far away from the West Mansion?”Madam You shook her head and sighed.
"Even if Master isn't far from the West Mansion, we still have to pay attention to that Second Mistress, lest she is still counting money for others after being sold. It was better to stay away from the matters of the Second household of the West Mansion.”Qin Keqing was also helpless and could only persuade him. She still kept a respectful distance from her father-in-law, Jia Zhen. She always felt that there was something in his eyes.
Qin Keqing's words made Madam You wary of Madam Wang. She had a world-shaking understanding of this kind and ruthless person.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted for a while more before leaving the room to prepare the medicine for Jia Zhen and his son.
In the Zhenbei Marquis's manor, cleaning and settling, and purchasing people were being carried out without any hesitation. Jia Xuan brought the servant girl around and gave suggestions on the renovation of some land.
"Third Master, let's draw out the appearance of the back residence and bring it to Miss Lin to ask her for any suggestions.”Fried Bean said to Jia Xuan.
"Yes, I'll leave this matter to you! Yu 'Er didn't dote on you in vain. However, you don't have to find someone to draw it, because there are blueprints in this courtyard. You can just ask Lin Zhixiao for a copy.”Jia Xuan laughed.
"Third Master, just wait and see." As he spoke, he disappeared without a trace.
"Third Master, the residence has basically been settled. The little girl, the servant woman, and the manservant are all bought. This way, he could be at ease. The only thing missing was the refinement of the back residence. This was up to Third Master to make the decision. This is the account book." Lin Zhixiao came in to reply.
"I won't look at the accounts. Since Third Master is using you, I'll believe you. As long as you do your job in peace, Third Master will not treat you badly. When your youngest son grows up, as long as it's not too bad, he will arrange a future for him.”Jia Xuan laughed.
"This servant thanks Third Master for his guidance on behalf of my son!”Lin Zhixiao knelt down and kowtowed a few times before retreating. He must have gone home to report the good news. However, he had been a slave for several generations. If his son could follow Third Master and have a bright future, it would be a great fortune.
"Third Master, Lin Zhixiao isn't here. He said he's here to give Third Master something, but Lin Zhixiao's family gave me the blueprint.”Fried Bean ran back, panting, holding the blueprint in his hand.
"Yes, when you go back tonight, send it to Yu 'Er. Tell her that the construction of the back house is waiting to start.”
"Alright!" Fried Bean nodded.
After having dinner at the manor, Jia Xuan brought the girls back to Rong Manor.
