After Dai Quan and his entourage left, everyone in the Jia family was still gloomy, and the atmosphere in Rongxi Hall was heavy.
"Second brother, what's going on?" Jia She was the first to speak.
Ever since Jia Zheng became unwilling to take the trouble, the Rongguo Mansion had lost its previous peace. It was just that it was impeached last time, but this time it actually attracted the East Factory.
Next time, will Jinyiwei come and ransack the house?
Isn’t it good to live an honest life?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, so Jia She's tone was questioning and he put all the responsibility on Jia Zheng.
"Brother, just now Eunuch Dai said that the Thirteenth Master fell ill and called for Baoyu, so the Holy Spirit ordered someone to summon him!" Jia Zheng's attitude was still modest.
"Hmph, how could Master Thirteen know about Baoyu? What's the secret behind it? Is this a blessing or a curse? Can you figure it out?"
Faced with Jia She's aggressive questioning, Jia Zheng was speechless at this time, which only further fueled the former's arrogance.
"Baoyu was impeached the day before yesterday, and Baoyu just settled down for a few days. How long has it passed... before these troubles happened again!"
In front of Jia Zhen, the patriarch, Jia She began to criticize Jia Zheng, in order to further suppress Jia Zheng.
In the past, when they were living in Ansheng, they were still brothers and sisters, but now the situation can be said to have changed.
When Jia Zheng's heart was burning, he heard an old woman's voice coming from the back hall: "You are going to convict Baoyu before the matter is clear. What are you worried about?"
The next moment, surrounded by Yuanyang and a group of women, Jia Mu appeared on the spot with a cold face.
"mother……"
"Mother!"
"I've met my ancestors!"
The three titles are different, each coming from Jia She Jia Zheng and Jia Zhen father and son.
Normally, Jia Mu would not come to Rongxi Hall, after all, this is an outside residence area.
Jia Mu didn't say anything, but first sat on the main seat, where Dai Quan had just sat.
"Zheng'er, tell me...what's going on!"
"yes!"
So Jia Zheng told Dai Quan's story again to his old mother.
After listening, Jia Mu asked puzzledly: "Why does the Thirteenth Master read Baoyu's name?"
Their family is very low-key, and Jia Baoyu is the second son of a second wife. He is inconspicuous in the circle of nobles in the capital and should not be known to the high-ranking prince.
"Could it be...that it's because of Brother Bao's piece of jade?" Jia Zhen spoke for the first time.
Being born with a jade in one's mouth is a rare thing in the royal family, and even more so in common people's homes.
Through this incident, Jia Baoyu became even more favored by Jia's mother, and he paid more attention to Jia Zheng and his wife, which enabled them to control the real power of the family and marginalized Jia She, who had inherited the title.
In this regard, Jia She, who was obsessed with making things worse, didn't care. Rongguo Mansion had spent these years peacefully under this misplaced situation.
"What happened to that piece of jade?" Jia Mu was furious.
Others can say whatever they want, but they cannot speak ill of Baoyu, even the patriarch Jia Zhen is no exception.
Seeing Jia's mother angry, Jia Zhen quickly kowtowed: "Ancestor, please calm down, it's your grandnephew who is talking nonsense!"
But I heard Jia She interject: "Being born with a jade in his mouth, regardless of whether this is true or not, it is not a good thing to appear in the house of a minister!"
Obviously, in Jia She's view, the so-called vision of being born with a jade in his mouth was a story made up by Jia Zheng and his wife.
"You are presumptuous!"
Jia Mu slammed the table, stood up and glared at Jia She.
"Mom, calm down, your son is wrong!"
Jia She quickly knelt on the ground, but the words in his mouth did not mean what he said, because he was indeed dissatisfied.
He was willing to give up his family power and only wanted to live a peaceful life, but Jia Zheng couldn't even do this. Of course, the more he thought about it, the more unhappy he became.
"you you……"
In desperation, Jia Mu fainted, causing everyone in the room to rush forward in a hurry.
"Brother, if there is something wrong with my mother, I...I can't spare you!"
Jia Zheng, who has always been kind, could not help but say harsh words at this moment, but Jia She sneered at this.
Everyone here hurriedly waited on Jia Mu. Lin Daiyu, who lived in Jia Mu's courtyard, also learned that Jia Baoyu had been taken away by Dongchang.
Even the women in the boudoir have heard of Dongchang's prestigious reputation. Now that Jia Baoyu has been taken away by these people, how can Daiyu not be worried.
Thinking that Baoyu might be tortured, Lin Daiyu's tears couldn't stop flowing, so that she also committed the old habit.
Zijuan hurriedly took the medicine and helped Daiyu take it. She was calm and enlightened, and then she slowly stopped Daiyu's cough.
"Second brother, will everything be okay?"
"I heard that the Thirteenth Master behaves absurdly and has a violent temper. Please don't..."
At this point, Daiyu coughed again, and big tears rolled down her face.
"Girl, don't think so wildly. The Thirteenth Master Tianhuang, how could he be such a person!"
Having said this, Zicuckoo showed her face and said, "Have you forgotten, my dear uncle, that the Thirteenth Master also specially gave me a reward for my great job in doing things?"
"The girl is weak and the Thirteenth Master made a special trip to deliver good medicine, so the Thirteenth Master must be a considerate person and will not embarrass the Second Master Bao!"
"real?"
Zicuckoo handed over the tea cup and said with a smile: "How can this be fake? Haven't those medicinal girls seen it with her own eyes?"
There is some truth to this inference, which at least makes Daiyu feel a little more at ease.
"I hope so!" After saying this, Daiyu shed tears again.
At this moment, the fainting Jia Mu was sent back by everyone, making the whole yard noisy.
Knowing that the old lady fainted from anger, Daiyu was even more sad and shed tears, causing chaos in Jia Mu's courtyard for a while.
As an elder of Ningrong's second house, Jia's mother's fainting was a major event, and it quickly alarmed the whole house.
The Xue family's mother and daughter, who were living in Lixiangyuan, soon learned the news from their slaves. They had already gone to bed and had no choice but to get up.
The old lady of the Jia family fell ill, and they should go and see her no matter what.
"Baoyu was summoned by the Thirteenth Master?" Aunt Xue was very surprised.
Recalling that Zhu Jinghong almost killed his son when he first came to Xue's house, she couldn't help but worry about Jia Baoyu.
"With the royal family, blessings and misfortunes are unpredictable!" Aunt Xue said with emotion.
Baochai had also changed her clothes at this moment. As the weather got colder, she also took a cloak and was about to put it on her mother's shoulders.
"Although Baoyu is a bit naughty, he doesn't have bad intentions. The Thirteenth Master shouldn't be in trouble. Mother doesn't have to worry too much!"
Baochai and Yinglian stayed together for a long time. During this period, it was not just a simple teaching process, but she also asked some questions about Zhu Jinghong.
In Baochai's view, Zhu Jinghong has a good heart, otherwise he would not be so kind to Yinglian.
Through careful analysis of the previous events, Baochai even felt that Zhu Jinghong was not as reckless as the rumors said, and many things were organized and hidden.
For the above reasons, Baochai didn't think Zhu Jinghong would do anything to Jia Baoyu, unless this person really did something outrageous.
Aunt Xue sighed; "The affairs of the Tian family are unpredictable, we can't tell for sure now!"
Baochai didn't say anything more, but she also understood that what her mother said was indeed possible, and royal affairs were never simple.
For example, in Jinling, it was originally a simple matter of checking money and food, but it caused an uncontrollable disturbance.
While Baochai was thinking about this, Aunt Xue had finished dressing. Surrounded by a group of servants and women, the mother and daughter rushed to Jia Mu's courtyard.
Thanks to book friends "Keqing Tietie" and "Duke Beckham" for the reward!
