"A kind person?"
"Eat vegetarian food and pray to Buddha?"
"Just this?"
Three questions came out of Jia Fou's mouth in a row, his tone was indescribably special.
His mocking words were directed at Madam Wang of Rong Mansion.
Madam Xing, who had just recovered from her shock, almost burst out laughing when she heard this.
She was originally Jia She's second wife, and her daughter-in-law was Lady Wang's niece. She had to be humble in this manor all day long, so how could she not accumulate resentment?
Others might not know, but Madam Xing had a long-standing grudge against Madam Wang.
The others, like Jia Zhen and You-shi, watched coldly from the side, only thinking that Jia Xiong was very vengeful.
"Brother Xiao."
"What else do you want? Do you want me to apologize to you before you will let it go?”
Grandmother Jia was anxious and could not help but say very seriously.
If this went on, the Rong Family would really lose face.
No matter what, Madam Wang was still Baoyu's mother. She could not just watch as she was humiliated like this.
"Haha."
Hearing this, Jia Fou smiled faintly and said,""What are you saying, Old Madam?"
"How could the sons of my residence do such a treasonous thing?”
"It's just that if the people in the residence are ignorant of the world and let others know, wouldn't they become a laughing stock?”
"I didn't want to disturb Old Lady at night, but since we're all here today, let's discuss it.”
What was that?
Everyone's faces revealed a hint of doubt.
Grandmother Jia was even more confused. What did this have to do with him?
"Second Uncle Zheng, Baoyu is eleven years old this year, right?”
"Yes."
Jia Zheng was stunned and replied.
"In ordinary families, there are many people who get engaged and get married at the age of 11.”
"It is only our family's noble family who is so grateful to the children in the residence that they are ignorant of the world.”
"Daughters are flesh and blood made of water, while men are flesh and blood made of mud. I feel refreshed when I see my daughter, but when I see a man, I feel dirty and smelly.”
"Denounce articles as 'bait name', call scholars who seek fame as' national thieves and Lu ghosts', and refer to official career as 'nonsense.'”
"He's really a rich and idle person."
A crisp voice rang out in Rongxi Hall. Most people still found it funny and angry.
Jia family generations of public marquis, until Jia Jing, by the emperor's grace in front of the hall to select scholars, Yimao examination Jinshi.
Jia Zheng himself loved reading, but failed to pass the imperial examination, so the Retired Emperor rewarded him with a position in charge of the Ministry of Works.
His eldest son, Jia Zhu, was a scholar at the age of fourteen. Because of his hard work, he died before he was twenty.
With Jia Baoyu's words, he wasn't scolding anyone else but his father and elder brother.
"Is this really what Baoyu said?"
Jia Zheng looked at the crowd in disbelief, the questioning intent in his eyes growing stronger.
"Second Uncle, Brother Bao is still young, so it was just a joke.”
Wang Xifeng wanted to smooth things over, so she changed the topic.
However, it was these words that caused Jia Zheng's anger to completely erupt.
Anyone could say these words except Jia Baoyu. If word got out, what would the Jia family, Li Wan, Jia Lan, and outsiders think?
"Evil creature! What a vile creature!"
"Men, bring Baoyu over."
In his anger, Jia Zheng roared.
Grandmother Jia couldn't sit still on the couch and said,""It's just a child's joke. Why do you have to act like this?”
"That Baoyu is a good child, and many things happened in the hall just now. Don't scare him.”
Jia Zheng was a filial person. Hearing Grandmother Jia's words, he could only suppress his anger in his heart and could not express it.
When everyone saw this, they could not help but shake their heads.
This Jia Baoyu was indeed worthy of being Grandmother Jia's favorite. He could even protect her like this.
Unfortunately, Jia Fou did not intend to let the matter rest and continued,""I heard that Baoyu eats rouge the most.”
"The mouth of the servant girl in the residence is wet with rouge. Try it."
"I also heard that Baoyu was reluctant to leave Sister Lin and begged the old lady to live together in the outer room.”
"His bed and Younger Sister Lin's window are separated by that green gauze cabinet.”
Thud!
Everyone's expression changed drastically when they heard that.
Eating the rouge from the mouth of a servant girl was understandable, and it was only a young duke's son who admired her.
But what was the meaning of living next to Miss Lin, separated by only a green gauze cabinet?
If word got out, would Lin Daiyu's reputation be ruined? Would Lin Daiyu be able to marry anyone in the future?
"What is it? That vile creature actually dared to do this?"
Jia Zheng's anger, which he had suppressed because of Grandmother Jia's words, was now reignited.
He was a gentleman and was good friends with Lin Ruhai. How could he allow his son to treat Lin Ruhai's daughter lightly?
"What do you mean by that?"
"It's just that Baoyu is close to his sister. When did he have such evil thoughts?”
"Look at the Lin girl again. She didn't even say anything.”
The Lady Dowager reprimanded Jia Cui angrily.
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Lin Daiyu.
Lin Daiyu gritted her teeth and stood up firmly."Ancestor."
"Men and women are different. This is the saying of the saints. Baoyu and I have neither the orders of our parents nor the words of a matchmaker.”
"There's no such thing as being in love. This is extremely inappropriate!”
Boom!
Everyone was shocked.
No one had expected the seemingly weak Lin Daiyu to have such a temperament. How bold and firm was she to expose this layer in front of so many elders?
At this moment, Madam Wang looked at Lin Daiyu with a desire to skin her alive.
Even Grandmother Jia was a little unhappy.
Hearing this.
Jia Zheng's heart was filled with unspeakable guilt. He never thought that Lin Daiyu would have such a prejudice against Jia Baoyu even though she had only been in the residence for a month. It could be seen how much Jia Baoyu had despised Lin Daiyu.
This was simply preposterous!
"Old Lady."
"I know that Baoyu and Younger Sister Lin are both your hearts. It would be best if you could be even closer.”
"But some people don't think so. I'm afraid that everyone has their own guesses about who was behind those rumors in the Inner Courtyard.”
"If these dirty things were to spread to Uncle Lin in Yangzhou, what would Uncle Lin think?”
"Others might not know, but don't you know why Uncle Lin sent Little Sister Lin to the residence?”
"What kind of official position is that salt inspector? It's like licking blood with the tip of a knife.”
"Uncle Lin thought that Little Sister Lin was related to the family by blood, so the family would treat her like a treasure.”
"What is the logic behind this?"
His eyes were like blades as he swept his gaze across everyone in the hall, his expression extremely cold.
These good-for-nothings of the Jia family, each and every one of them was incapable of doing anything but was good at ruining things. He could not stand it anymore.
Instead of managing a good network of relationships, he used those rare favors in unnecessary places and even helped the Wang family rise.
Anyone with a brain would not do such a thing.
To Lin Daiyu, the Jia family didn't even care about her feelings at all. They even used the dowry Lin Ruhai prepared for Lin Daiyu to build the Grand View Garden. The Jia family didn't even have the slightest pity.
