After all, Jia Rong is the eldest grandson of the eldest family member. The news that he was seriously injured quickly spread in both houses.
Not long after Jia Lian and others arrived, Jia Mu and others also rushed over, but the culprit Jia Zhen went out.
Just because he also knew that such a big incident in the mansion would easily attract questions from the elders.
Jia Zhen is not afraid, after all, it is natural for me to beat my son, but he is in a bad mood now and does not want to listen to the nagging of his elders.
The doctor was treating Jia Rong. He first helped Jia Rong reattach his dislocated arm, and then began to treat his injuries.
The whole process was like killing a pig. The servants inside and outside were frightened when they heard it, and they were a little more afraid of Jia Zhen.
Everyone was afraid that Jia Mu would be too worried, so they only let her stay in the room for a while, and then helped her to the outer hall.
"This man who killed a thousand swordsmen, Ronger is his biological son, yet he can do such a vicious thing... He's poisoned by a tiger and can't bear to eat its seeds!"
As Jia Mu spoke, she wiped away her tears, and Yuanyang who was waiting next to her quickly took out a handkerchief.
Jia Zheng also sighed: "That's right... Zhen'er did go too far this time!"
At this time, Jia Mu looked at Youshi and asked in a cold voice: "There must be a reason for beating people. What's going on?"
In this era, it is normal for a woman to take the blame for her husband.
"Old ancestor, this...granddaughter-in-law was not here at the time. I asked the girl just now and said that the master's face didn't look good when he came out of the garden. He saw Rong'er joking with the girl..."
"That's...that's when I teach you a lesson!" Youshi spoke hesitantly, trying his best to cover up for Jia Zhen.
After hearing her words, Jia She and his son looked at each other and confirmed their guess that Jia Rong had suffered an unreasonable disaster.
At this time, Youshi said: "The girl reported that... the master was drinking and listening to a play in the garden, and he was in a good mood. During that time, he met Brother Lian and got angry when he came out!"
"Lian Er...is this the case?"
Jia Lian had no choice but to reply: "Back to my ancestors, my grandson met Brother Zhen and told him something!"
"What did you tell Zhen'er?" Jia Mu asked in a stern tone.
"It was Master Thirteen who sent the message to Brother Zhen..."
Jia Lian only said half a sentence and did not directly point out Zhu Jinghong's request, just because it was a family scandal after all, and it was not convenient to talk about it because there were too many people around.
At this moment, Jia Mu and others were surprised. They did not expect that there were such secrets in the matter.
Jia Mu then asked, "What did the Thirteenth Master tell him?"
Everyone present was particularly curious, including the servants and girls. After all, people in ancient and modern times loved to hear gossip.
Jia Lian looked troubled: "Old ancestors... there are some things that are inconvenient to say, so let them all go down!"
Knowing that there might be something hidden, Jia Mu asked her servants to go out, leaving only her confidants inside to wait on her.
Seeing everyone looking at him eagerly, Jia Lian sighed and said, "Brother Zhen told Rong'er that she is the daughter of Qin Ye, a doctor in the Ministry of Industry!"
Jia Zheng knows this best. After all, he is the one pulling the strings.
"Unexpectedly, the Qin family now wants to regret their marriage. They have gone to the house several times to say so in the past few days, but Brother Zhen rejected them all..."
Jia Zheng also knew about this matter, and Qin Ye wanted to ask him to mediate, but Jia Zheng refused.
Jia Zheng couldn't afford to embarrass the matchmaker who helped break off the engagement, not to mention his own face.
"I thought everything was fine, but Qin Ye went to the Thirteenth Master to complain, and the Thirteenth Master agreed to make the decision for him, so he sent someone to pass the message to his grandson..."
At this point, Jia Lian lowered his head and said, "Let your grandson tell Brother Zhen to cancel the marriage on his own initiative!"
Mother Jia finally understood the matter. There was no doubt that this was humiliating to the Jia family. No wonder Jia Zhen was so angry.
"When he's angry... he can't take it out on Ronger, that's his biological son... his biological son!"
At the end of the story, Jia Mu even slapped the table, obviously very resentful towards Jia Zhen.
Everyone hurriedly comforted her, fearing that something unexpected might happen to Jia Mu again, which would make it even more difficult to end the matter.
After finally being comforted, Jia Mu also knew that what happened was irreversible, so she asked: "About breaking off the engagement... what did Zhen'er say?"
Jia Lian replied: "Since it is the Thirteenth Master's words, even though Brother Zhen is unwilling to do so, he can only agree!"
After hearing this, Jia Mu just sighed helplessly. She still understood why her arms could not twist her thighs.
"This Thirteenth Master... is too much of a bully!"
"A marriage contract has always been a matter between the two families. There is no place for outsiders to dictate!"
The sudden opposition attracted the attention of everyone present, and Jia Baoyu, the person involved, faced it calmly.
"Baoyu, don't say this nonsense!" Jia Lian said coldly.
"Second brother, are you secretly saying that I made a mistake?" Jia Baoyu asked.
"Since ancient times, parents have ordered matchmakers to get married. Is it wrong?"
Jia Lian was very angry, but he couldn't find anything to say for a while, just because Jia Baoyu was right, Zhu Jinghong had interfered in this matter.
At this time, Jia She said: "Baoyu... you don't understand anything, so you'd better say less!"
"Uncle...nephew, did you say something wrong?"
Jia She sneered, looked at Jia Zheng with a deep look on his face, and said, "It's true that I was wrong... It doesn't matter what you or I said!"
Jia She was reminding Jia Zheng to take care of his son and stop talking nonsense.
The reality of this world is that only those who are strong-willed say what they say makes sense, and the Jia family is naturally not as strong as Zhu Jinghong.
"Baoyu, don't be rude to uncle Qi!" Jia Zheng scolded him with a straight face.
Although he also agreed with Jia Baoyu's words, because Zhu Jinghong was kind to the Jia family and because Li's family was powerful and high-status, Jia Zheng had to succumb to reality.
Seeing these three people bullying their precious grandson, Jia's mother immediately scolded: "Hmph... I think Baoyu is right. We are already in control of this matter, why don't you all dare to say anything?"
"You two are so submissive to outsiders, but stern to the younger generation, but you two are really good at it!"
Seeing that the old mother couldn't carry it clearly, Jia She couldn't help but said: "Mother... the Thirteenth Master has strict orders, what can we do?"
Mother Jia was furious: "It can't be done, but is it natural to be bullied for nothing?"
Jia Baoyu was extremely proud, after all, there were ancestors in this house who loved him.
Seeing that the old mother was getting more and more outrageous, Jia She said in a low voice: "Mother...be careful what you say!"
Jia Zheng also said: "Mother... never make a mistake, learn from the past!"
Now that they have finally settled down, the two brothers don't want to cause trouble. After all, there is no such thing as a stable life.
Jia Mu also calmed down at this moment. Of course she knew that she couldn't resist. She was just taking the opportunity to vent her anger.
Originally Jia's mother was about to borrow the slope to go down, but now Jia Baoyu said: "Ancestor, we don't need to be afraid of the Thirteenth Master. You are a first-class wife. Why don't you go to the palace to see the Queen and accuse him!"
Madams of rank three or above can enter the palace to see the queen, but they may not necessarily be summoned.
It seems that there are very few people with titles above the third rank, but in the capital, the princes and nobles have many honors, and the number of them is at least four to five hundred.
Even if only one tenth of them entered the palace every day, there would still be forty or fifty people in attendance, and the queen would not be able to see them at all.
What's more, there are distances between near and far. A marginalized family like the Jia family can hardly see the queen several times a year.
After hearing Jia Baoyu's words, everyone present, including the maids, looked at him like a fool.
At this time, Jia Lian couldn't help but remind him: "Baoyu...don't you know that the Queen is the biological mother of the Thirteenth Master?"
