The Rongguo Mansion was as oppressive as a dark cloud. Even the maids and women, who were the most unruly in the past, were cautious today for fear of making any mistakes and offending any red-eyed master.
There is no other way, the second wife is here!
The second wife is here with murderous intent!
Several concierges were about to go up to greet the second wife, but they were kicked in the buttocks by Zhou Rui, the second wife's steward, which almost broke the concierge's tail bone.
Along the way, the second wife could be said to be killing people and killing Buddhas. Anyone who didn't have the guts to come up to say hello would be beaten up by Zhou Rui and his wife!
Fortunately, Mr. Bao came in time. When he said "ma'am", the frosty-faced second wife could no longer maintain her cold look. She knelt down and hugged Mr. Bao and burst into tears.
"My dear, it's been almost two quarters of an hour, right? Is Mrs. Wang so capable of crying?"
Jia Hui and Oriole Cat, who had changed their clothes under the wall of Rongguo Mansion, were resting in a secret corner.
Just when Oriole went to greet him, Mrs. Wang started to cry. A quarter of an hour after Jia Hui had changed her clothes and climbed over the wall, Mrs. Wang was still crying.
What's there to cry about?
Even if you pay for your life with money, are the old lady and Wang really the legitimate daughters of noble families?
Old lady, that is your good son! Wouldn't you hand over the money first, and then come and break up with Mr. Wang?
It has been ten days since the last time he had a fight with the old lady. Counting the days, my second uncle has already been imprisoned in the Peking Clothing Thousand Households Center for eight days!
Yesterday, Tan Ji came to see him. When he came up, he asked himself, "Taiwei, your second uncle, Jia Zheng, a member of the Ministry of Industry and Engineering, was imprisoned for delaying the construction period and exceeding the budget by 50%. What kind of regulations do we have? Should we protect him or kill him?" "I was confused at that time!
Good guy, I've been in jail for eight days and haven't paid the fine yet. The old lady is so calm!
In eight days, the eight-hundred-mile speed trip was more than a round trip. What's more, because the criminal was a close relative of the Taiwei, he was taken seriously. The Peking Qianhu Station directly sent a carrier pigeon this time.
Regardless of the method used, on the third or fourth day of his imprisonment, Tan Ji, who was in Chang'an, had already received the documents from the Peking Qianhu Office, and immediately went to the prisoner's family to demand payment of the fine.
Moreover, before Tan Ji went to Rongguo Mansion, he came to him specifically to test it out. Only after getting his consent did he visit the old lady in person.
However, it has been four days since the visit. According to Oriole's observation, the old lady has no intention of opening a warehouse. She should eat and drink and be in a good mood!
"I was even in such a good mood that I ate a whole roasted lamb front leg for lunch yesterday!" Oriole said to Jia Hui with a surprised look on the old lady's situation yesterday. She didn't know what to say to the old lady.
"Moreover, Xiuyi Zhenfu, who stayed in Luoyang, also personally paid a visit to the second lady.
However, the second wife didn't say anything or do anything. She just kept waiting for news from the old lady. As you know the result, sir, after seeing the share assigned to her by the old lady, the second wife arranged the family affairs and prepared overnight. The carriage was rushed to Chang'an without first opening the warehouse to hand in the fine to save the life of Mr. Zheng.
I also heard that the people in Xiuyi Zhenfu who came to collect the goods the next day were stunned when they saw that the people in Rongguo Mansion were empty! "At this time, Oriole couldn't hold back her cold face anymore. The corners of her mouth kept twitching, trying to hold back her smile.
"Oh, there are two of them. In normal times, it is said that the second child is loved and cherished the most, and that the husband and wife are deeply affectionate and the husband and wife are of the same mind. This involves money, hehe, it is all nonsense." Jia Hui Looking disdainfully at the woman in the distance who was holding Baoyu and crying together, and her crying had turned into howling alone, she curled her lips.
Hey, the old lady has been in trouble for decades, what tricks have she never seen before? Still pretending to be pitiful here?
As if seeing that his moves were ineffective, Wang's howling voice became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared. He stretched out his hand to support his forehead, as if he fainted due to crying out of grief, and collapsed to the ground. The second master Bao was so frightened that he thought she had really fainted from crying, so he held her head and cried loudly.
"Tsk, this action is really a bit artificial." Looking at Wang's falling action, Jia Hui rubbed his chin and commented.
"Yes, yes, the second wife's gesture of holding her forehead was a bit superfluous." Oriole also nodded and confirmed this statement.
Soon, a circle of maids and women standing around hurriedly lifted Wang up and followed the direction pointed by a little maid to the yard that had been prepared for Wang in advance.
Poor Baoyu was held tightly in her arms by her mother and wouldn't let go, as if she was holding a rag doll. Several little maids in the old lady's room tried to rescue Baoyu from Mrs. Wang's arms, but they were too spoiled to do so. How can they, who are more masters than their masters, be the opponents of a general girl in her thirties who is at the peak of her strength?
Not only was the treasure not taken back, but one of Wang's elbows was even invisible in the eyes of the maids and women, but very obvious in the eyes of Jia Hui and Huang Oriole, causing her eyes to turn black and black. When he was on the ground, he started crying and howling wildly.
After all, she, Wang, had seen her Earl practice martial arts, and she had subconsciously memorized some moves in her mind.
There was no other way. The maids who were ordered by the old lady to rescue Baoyu from her mother looked as if I had died. They could only watch with despair as Mr. Bao was held in her arms by her own mother and left them. Farther
"Well, pretending to be pitiful is over, now let's start the intermission. Let's go. Since you are pretending to be fainted, Wang will not wake up for a while. Let's go to the east courtyard for a while. Oriole, we are keeping a close eye on you here. Wang must inform me when she wakes up!" Seeing that there was no more excitement, Jia Hui no longer wanted to stay in the corner. He ordered Oriole and left the back house along the wall without waiting for her reply. .
"."
Looking at the master's retreating figure, Oriole closed her mouth several times, and finally chose to close her mouth with a look of helplessness.
Tired.
Although she has no regrets about following Jia Hui, but...
There is always a kind of thing. After eighteen years of seclusion, he has acquired unparalleled martial arts skills. When he was about to go down the mountain to fight for justice and swear to kill all corrupt officials and wipe out all kinds of filth and injustice, he discovered that the political situation had already been cleared up, and the world had realized " "The world is unified".
Her good skills are completely useless, and she is sent to do these trivial things. She even has to climb the beam of a mere fifth-rank official's wife to monitor her condition, so that her family owner can watch the fun.
That’s not what the old man said at the beginning!
At that time, I had just completed my entrance examination. I set out from Peiping and traveled thousands of miles to Jinling to assassinate a flower picker who dared to take advantage of the daughter of the shopkeeper of Jia's shop!
After arriving in Jinling for a few days, he lurked in the shop for another six days before he finally found the flower-picking thief. He quickly eliminated the flower-picking thief with only five moves and won his first place. Pot of gold.
Then my husband found out about his affairs.
The old man made a special trip to find me and told himself that in the future, the family leader Jia Hui would have countless rivals and enemies. In the years when he was struggling to climb up the officialdom, there would be countless crises waiting for the family leader and himself to face. , and he is the owner’s sharpest dagger and the innermost layer of soft armor!
What my husband Jia Daishan said was so exciting and witty that I, who was still a vigorous and passionate girl at the time, was so excited that I agreed to become the maid of the head of the family without any hesitation.
I thought that in the future I would continue to fight wits and courage with killers and assassins who might appear at any time to protect the family leader, or be sent out by the family leader to collect criminal evidence or assassinate political opponents, but things are unpredictable.
The head of the family, he. After he went to the northwest to join the army, his official ranks rose all the way. In the end, not only did he become a county prince due to the military merits earned from destroying the three kingdoms, he also became the commander-in-chief of the left army. Not long ago, he even became the commander-in-chief of the left army. He also became a Taiwei. A Taiwei!
An official position that ordinary people may not be able to earn after decades of hard work is suddenly taken to the end by their own bosses. All those assassinations and counter-assassinations disappear. The few things that interest them in their lives disappear in an instant. Almost done
Although a peaceful and peaceful life is what she also wants, otherwise she would not have a good relationship with Tang Qi, the family leader's personal soldier, but she also longs for the thrill of the assassination and counter-assassination that makes her feel like a fairy. ah!
I originally thought it would be interesting to follow Jia Hui, the lord who was born as a concubine, in the officialdom.
well.
Oriole sighed silently, and sneaked in the direction of Madam Wang's Courtyard dejectedly.
Well, whining is whining, but work still needs to be done.
After all, I also want to know who will win between the second wife and the ancestor!
Hey!
. . . . . .
"Well, it's rare for you, Captain Jia, to come to me."
In the east courtyard of Rongguo Mansion, Jia Hui took the opportunity to visit Jia She, who had started having fun since arriving in Guanzhong.
"Haha, Dad, are you kidding me? Is it because the child doesn't come to see you? It's because the child can't find you at all!" Jia Hui and Jia She looked at each other and laughed together.
Since arriving in Guanzhong, Jia She and his old brothers began to travel around, visit various places of interest, collect various antiques, and inspect brothels in various places.
Today I am still admiring the moon in Chang'an with the Emperor. Tomorrow I will meet up with some old brothers to go to Lantian to try to dig jade.
"Hehehehe, you kid is just talking nonsense. Even if I'm at home, you won't come here a few times a month. Why are you pretending to be a kid? I don't know you kid? You must have come here to watch the old lady and the second son's fight. Right?" Jia She leaned on the back of his chair, holding a tea bowl, as if "I don't know you yet?"
"That is indeed the case. Dad, let me tell you, after Wang entered the inner house just now, he held Baoyu and cried forcefully for almost half an hour!
But the old lady didn't respond at all, and she didn't even open the door. When Wang saw this, she could only pretend to faint. In order to vent her anger, what did she call the person next to the old lady?
Anyway, it was a little maid that the old lady kept in front of her, and an elbow hit her until her eyes were black! The little maid sat down on the ground and cried with a cry, so pitiful, tut tut."
Jia Hui smacked his lips and shook his head.
"It's just pitiful to our Second Master Bao. He was held tightly in his arms by his mother. No matter how much he cried and cried, Mrs. Wang wouldn't let him go. I guess he's still being held by Mrs. Wang now!"
Jia She pricked up his ears and laughed while listening to Jia Hui's account of the battle situation on the front line, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
No, judging from the situation, this should have happened in the inner house. How did this kid know?
"Hehe, the kid still has some skills." Jia She's expression was so obvious that Jia Hui knew what he wanted to say without even guessing.
"Oh, it didn't matter before. Anyway, the Xing family is staying in Luoyang, and my concubines are all living with you and me, and there is only the old lady in the back house.
But now that the second daughter-in-law is here, you should also pay attention to your propriety. "Jia She didn't comment on this behavior, but still tried to persuade his eldest son.
"Ah, don't worry, the kid is sensible," Jia Hui nodded. "Besides, why should I go to the back house of Rongguo Mansion if I have nothing to do?"
"You just have to be measured." Jia She thought to himself.
This boy can always find some stunning beauties from nowhere, thanks to the good looks I and his mother Coltsfoot gave him, and with the blessings of his status as Taiwei and the few poems he wrote. With cultural blessing, no oiran lady or folk artist can help but be attracted by my son.
For example, the Jiaofang Siwu family who accompanied us on our hunting trip to the West, since they sang the song "Sheep on the Hillside - Tong Guan Gu Gu" written by their eldest son last month, they have been in a state of being alone in their empty boudoir.
I hid in the embroidery building and sat in front of the window day and night, looking at the bronze mirror and feeling hysterical. I was looking forward to seeing the Taiwei present during the performance one day. I accidentally sprained my foot and fell from the stage, but was beaten by Kong Wuli. The Taiwei caught it with both hands and hugged it across his chest.
Then he invited himself to have dinner with the Taiwei, and then he got to know each other, got to know each other, and fell in love with each other.
Alas--
Thinking of this, Jia She suddenly felt sick and got goosebumps all over his body.
These were all told by the manager of the Jiaofang Division when I was watching Hu Nu dancing in the Jiaofang Division!
I heard from him that Mr. Wu was about to give up after waiting for many days, and then he received the three poems, lyrics, and music written by his eldest son on the Qiqiao Festival.
After reading the three works of Wu Master, Sichun almost went crazy with thoughts. People often saw Wu Master stopping his little maid to play role-playing, imagining the scene where he and Taiwei met each other.
Since then, the Jiaofang Si was really worried that Wu's body would be damaged by excessive thoughts. In order to prevent her from having random thoughts, and to help her as much as possible, the Jiaofang Si arranged many more performances for her, hoping that she would Can you be so busy that you forget this hopeless love, or can your dream come true and really meet the captain once?
After all, the head manager of the Jiaofang Division knew that Captain Jia really liked going to the theater.
It's just that they were disappointed. There were too many things going on recently, and the lieutenant was too busy to go.
