Jia Xuan was right. In the ancestral teachings, any descendant who had made contributions could live in the Martial Virtue Garden.
Although he, Jia Xuan, was still a little far from being conferred the title of Marquis,
But now, he was already a second-grade general!
Basically, he had reached the peak of a general.
There shouldn't be any problems with moving into the Martial Virtue Garden, right?
"Matriarch, you promised me.”
Jia Baoyu shook Grandmother Jia's arm pitifully, causing Grandmother Jia to glare at him fiercely, indicating for him to not speak nonsense.
"What's wrong? From the looks of it, could it be that the Matriarch wanted Baoyu to move into Wude Garden?”
Jia Xuan said.
As soon as he said that, the whole Rong Mansion was in an uproar. Everyone's eyes widened, even the servants were shocked.
Baoyu wanted to live in Wude Garden?
The Martial Virtue Garden was a place where only the sons of the Jia family with meritorious deeds could live!
He, Jia Baoyu, was neither a scholar nor a martial artist. Other than being born with a piece of jade, he had no other outstanding qualities. Why should he live in Wude Garden?!
Most importantly, Grandmother Jia had agreed!
"You bastard, do you think you're worthy of living in Wude Garden?" Jia Zheng said angrily.! I think the Matriarch dotes on you too much! Bastard!"
Jia Baoyu felt even more wronged when he heard this. He refuted,"Why is it that only those traitors can stay here and I can't?”
"Bastard!"
Pa--
Jia Zheng directly slapped Jia Baoyu's face in front of everyone and said angrily,"Thief Lu Gui, you think you're qualified to say that?! Do you know how many people your brother, Jia Xuan, saved in Lin City? Men, lock Baoyu in Happy Red Courtyard and copy the scriptures. You are not allowed to come out until you finish copying!”
Hearing Jia Zheng's roar, Jia Baoyu was completely dumbfounded.
He looked at Jia Xuan and then at Jia Zheng. He did not expect his biological father to not stand on his side. Instead, he stood on the side of the so-called "national thief Lu Gui" that he hated the most!
"Second Master Bao, go quickly. Second Master is still angry.”
Xiren's servant girl quickly walked over and pulled Baoyu away while persuading him. Soon, she brought Baoyu out.
Jia Zheng waved his hand and sent a few servants to follow him. It was obvious that he was determined to lock Baoyu up for a while.
"Brother Xuan, Baoyu is not sensible and claims to be noble. It's my fault for not teaching him well.”
Jia Zheng apologized to Jia Xuan,
In reality, Jia Zheng was a person who could take things lightly. In addition, Jia Xuan was now a first-grade viscount and a second-grade Liao Conquering General. Jia Zheng had no choice but to say something good to prevent Jia Xuan from hating Baoyu in the future.
Speaking of which, Jia Zheng was doing this for Jia Baoyu's own good.
but...
When Baoyu, who had just walked out of Rongxi Hall, heard this, he felt even more upset. He shed two lines of tears and said angrily,"Is father my biological father or not?”
"Shh, Second Master Bao, lower your voice. Don't talk nonsense!”
Xiren quickly persuaded him in a low voice and quickly pulled Jia Baoyu away from Rongxi Hall, afraid that Baoyu would say something shocking again.
After that, Jia Xuan sat on the main seat of the Rongxi Hall and ordered a few manservants to clean up the Martial Virtue Garden. He did not give the old lady any face at all and did not take the old lady seriously at all.
Once upon a time, it was a trend to hold power in the back residence of the Rong Mansion.
Because there are no men to make a name for themselves
When Jia Yuan and Jia Daishan were around, what use would those tricks in the back house be?
Now, Jia Xuan had a second-grade official position.
Did he still need to look at Grandmother Jia's expression? It was already good enough that Grandmother Jia and Madam Wang were kicked out of Rongxi Hall!
In the past, Rongxi Hall was a place where the four princes discussed matters. Women were not qualified to enter at all. Now, it had almost become a place surrounded by women.
"You, move some more wood to the courtyard of the Martial Virtue Garden. Also, bring the curved ruler and ink fountain to the Martial Virtue Garden.”
Jia Xuan sat on the main seat as if he was the master of the Rong Public House.
Jia She, Grandmother Jia, Madam Wang, and Wang Xifeng were all gloomy.
The few servants immediately responded. They did not dare to bring the carpenter's things to the courtyard, so they could only hurry to do it.
"Your wings have hardened, hehe-"
"Come and find me in the afternoon."
Jia She's expression was gloomy. He snorted coldly and left with a flick of his sleeves.
Jia Xuan smiled faintly and did not mind.
On the other hand, Grandmother Jia suppressed her displeasure towards Jia Xuan and comforted her,"Brother Xuan, First Master is like that. You don't have to care about him.”
Actually, when Grandmother Jia saw Jia Xuan's awe-inspiring appearance and how he was ordering people around without even putting her, the ancestor, in his eyes, she was very angry.
Thinking of how she, the Old Lady Shi, had been loved by thousands of people since she was a historian,
After she married into the Jia family and took charge of the rear residence, no one dared to disrespect her!
Now that she was old, as an old woman, even the nobles of the four royal dukes had to respect her and give her some face.
but now
Jia Xuan did not take her seriously at all!
This made Grandmother Jia very angry, but there was nothing she could do because Jia Xuan was now a first-class viscount bestowed by the Emperor and had merit. Grandmother Jia could only suppress this hatred in her heart and plot in secret.
"Alright, Matriarch, Sister-in-law Xifeng, from now on, Martial Virtue Garden will be my residence.”
"Don't let Baoyu run over."
Jia Xuan chuckled.
Grandmother Jia's expression became even more embarrassed, but she still replied,"It should be like this. Baoyu is indeed too much.”
At this moment, Wang Xifeng was no longer smooth and slick, so she could only nod.
Usually, Wang Xifeng was in a hurry and did not leak anything in her life. She was also a master at doing things. She was very smooth and slick.
But now…
Facing Jia Xuan, who was dressed in blood-stained black armor and had made great contributions,
She felt that she did not even have the courage to speak.
What backroom methods?
They were all just methods used in the back, not presentable.
After a few words, everyone who had their own ulterior motives resumed their harmony on the surface. Grandmother Jia and Madam Wang both suppressed their sense of crisis to the deepest part of their hearts and did not show it at all.
Xue Baochai, Shi Xiangyun, Lin Daiyu, and the other good sisters recited poems and wrote new words for Wude Garden.
Very soon,
The servants cleaned up the Martial Virtue Garden, and a few servants brought many carpenters to place them in the garden.
When the women saw these carpenter toys, they were very curious.
"Brother Ai, what are you doing with these carpenters?" Shi Xiangyun asked directly. Could it be that he wanted to create military equipment to facilitate the killing of enemies on the battlefield?”
Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, and a few other maids also pricked up their ears. They were also very curious.
"Xiangyun, you love sister-in-law and like these things, so I got them for her to play with."”
All the girls looked at Cheng Si Niangzi with envy.
"If it's something Madam likes, I'll get it for her."
"Even if it's a star in the sky, I'll pluck it down and give it to her.”
Cheng Fourth Lady's heart was filled with gratitude and she could not help but come up to hug Jia Xuan.
Shi Xiangyun called out lovingly,
Lin Daiyu's eyes were full of envy.
"This is really good? "Although Baoyu is usually good to me, he doesn't understand my preferences. He's only good on the surface," Lin Daiyu thought.
Xue Baochai was also full of envy.
Compared to Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai was much more mature. She was born in the Xue family and could not decide on her own marriage. She did not know if she could be like Cheng Siniang in the future and meet a husband who loved her so much.
