Jia She returned to his room with a gloomy face, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back.
It wasn't until Mrs. Xing appeared that he scolded him impatiently: "Where have you been? Why did it take you so long to come?"
Ms.
"Okay, take a seat." Jia She flicked her sleeves, and Mrs. Xing quickly took her seat, "What's the matter, sir?"
"Hmph, you've been walking around the yard all day long, haven't you heard something?" Jia She stared at the other party fiercely, "It's in vain that you are still the eldest lady in the house. The people below have spread the word, but you are blind. listen,……"
Hearing Jia She's fierce voice, Mrs. Xing stood up in fright.
She really thought that Jia She knew about her brother.
This Xingzhong was also ignorant. He had nothing to do when he came to the capital city. He spent all day doing nothing, but he didn't have much money in his hand, so he went to the casino.
A few days ago, he said that he was lucky and won dozens of taels. Xing was also a little jealous and went to talk to him about it. The guy also generously gave Xing twenty taels.
Who Zeng knew that his luck had changed in the past two days. Ten days ago, he came to borrow a hundred taels as an emergency. Mrs. Xing was a little hesitant, but in the end he lent it to the other party. Unexpectedly, seven days ago, he came to borrow money again, and Mrs. Xing refused. , the guy cried and fought, making it impossible for Mr. Xing to step down, so he could only borrow another hundred taels, saying that he would never have it again.
Unexpectedly, someone came to the door the day before yesterday and said that Xing Zhong was detained in the casino and owed more than 300 taels of silver. They wanted Xing to use the money to redeem him, which made Xing so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas were born.
You might as well not care about it, but they said they would come to your door every day to demand payment, or they would cut off Xing Zhong's fingers to pay off the debt. This frightened Ms. A pause.
I was worried today, thinking about how to solve this matter, and planned to call Xing Xiuyan to talk about it, but I didn't expect that Jia She came back angrily.
"Master, I really don't know..."
"I don't know, I don't know. Besides saying I don't know, what else can you say? Didn't the Wang Shanbao family hear it? Isn't that Siqi girl her granddaughter? Are you following the second girl and know nothing?" Jia Sheyue said Getting more and more angry, "I think once Lian'er leaves, there will be no order in this family. I have to wait until my second brother comes to ask me about such a big thing, how do you, as a mother, discipline me?"
Ms. Water, I don’t know what the master is talking about..."
Jia She was furious, picked up the cup on the coffee table next to him and smashed it over. The tea cup flew past Xing's ear, hit the wall and fell to the ground, shattering into pieces. Xing was so frightened that she couldn't help but scream.
The maids outside were all in a hurry to come in, but they saw the eldest master's face was ashen and his wife shivering on the side. They knew that the master was lecturing his wife. Before Jia She could look over, they all slipped out in fear and quickly closed the door. .
In this long house, Jia She was like God, and neither the Xing family nor the original Jia Lian and Jia Yingchun had any room for resistance.
Jia She's eyes were blazing and he looked directly at Mrs. Living in the garden and interacting with the second girl all day long, could it be that I have turned a deaf ear to her, or haven’t I paid attention to you as my aunt?"
Jia She was also a bit arrogant and cursed, but it really made him angry.
When the second brother hesitantly asked if he wanted to give the second girl to Feng Ziying as his concubine, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
If you ever have such thoughts, you should hide them in your heart. Being asked about it by the second brother in front of your face is like a slap in the face.
Of course he denied it, but the second child said that it was being spread in the house, which made Jia She very angry and hurriedly came back to ask how Xing, a mother, was doing and why everyone in the house knew about it. As a father, he knew nothing.
Although Ms. Let me act like a sensible person."
Jia She stared at the other party for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said: "There is a rumor in the house that Feng Ziying wants to take the two girls as concubines, and they also say that they are in love with each other..."
Mrs. It's just that I didn't mention the relationship between Sun Shaozu and Sun Shaozu at that time, so I didn't mention it again. Why is the master so angry about this matter?
After calming down, Mrs. He is slandering the second girl. The master still doesn’t know the second girl’s temperament and dare not say anything even if she is stabbed with needles. How can he dare to do anything compatible with the Feng family’s elder brother?”
Jia She's anger subsided slightly when he heard Xing's words, but he still refused to give up, "Then what do you mean by deliberately disgusting me in front of me?"
"I don't know about this concubine." Ms. Xing didn't dare to lie. She still didn't understand why Jia She was angry. Was it because Er Yatou's rumor made him lose face, or because he felt that the Sun family had found out about it. Can't you explain it to the Sun family?
Jia She's face was gloomy and he thought for a while before saying: "Go and call Qiu Tong. This girl Siqi has always been cunning and unruly. If you ask her without any evidence, she will definitely not admit it. I'll ask Qiu Tong first. You can ask Xiuyan later, as an aunt, you deserve to be free and peaceful!"
Mr. Xing didn't dare to say anything.
Qiu Tong was quickly called. When Jia She asked about Yingchun, Qiu Tong knelt down and said, "Master and madam, how dare I say this?"
Jia She and Xing exchanged glances, feeling even more nervous.
Jia She said gloomily: "What are you afraid to say? Didn't everyone say it has been spread throughout the house? I know everything, and I just want to confirm it. What is there that you don't want to say?"
Qiu Tong just kowtowed and didn't dare to talk.
However, Mrs. Xing felt that Qiutong might have some conspiracy. This girl had always been sinister, but she was also very good at pleasing the master, so Mrs. Xing kept urging her to reward Qiutong to Jia Lian.
But before he had time, Jia Lian wandered off to Yangzhou. Qiu Tong originally wanted to follow Jia Lian, but out of disappointment, he could only cling to Jia She.
"Say!" Jia She became angry again.
"Then the master wants to forgive this slave,..." Qiu Tong kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic.
"Okay, tell me." Jia She felt that what would come out of Qiu Tong's mouth would be even worse, but he couldn't help but not ask at this time.
"Everyone in the house is saying that Uncle Feng has fallen in love with the second girl. The second girl also dislikes that the uncle of the Sun family is vulgar and is unwilling to marry him, so they go back and forth..." Qiu Tong glanced at Jia She slightly, and then quickly lowered his head. , "Also said, also said..."
"What else can you say?" Jia She said impatiently.
"It was also said that Uncle Feng had been to the second girl's Zhujin Tower several times, and all the other maids had been sent out..., and then some people said that the second girl's body had been broken by Uncle Feng,..."
Jia She and Xing Shi both changed their expressions.
Jia She felt dizzy for a while. Once the rumors got out, could the second girl get married? I'm afraid I have no choice but to die.
The question is is this a rumor? Jia She still knew that his daughter was definitely not so courageous, but he also knew that Feng Ziying was bold and lustful. If the second girl fell in love with him, the two of them would be alone and deeply in love. It's not necessarily true that someone might do something extraordinary.
However, Xing was not as easily confused by Qiu Tong's words as Jia She was, and just looked at Qiu Tong coldly.
She had heard a few words about Er Yatou and Feng Ziying. It was not as common knowledge as the master said, but some servants said that Feng Ziying treated Er Yatou very well and was not like the people in the house who treated Er Yatou with contempt and neglect. , I have indeed been to Zhujin Tower several times, but have I ever been to such an extent that my body was broken? She had never heard of it either.
"Qiutong, where did you hear this? Why have I never heard of it before?"
Qiu Tong frowned, lowered his eyebrows and said: "This slave just learned from others..."
"Which bystander?" Ms. Xing said sharply.
"One day in April, I went to Zhujin Tower to deliver the perfume given by my wife to the second girl. I passed by Zilingzhou and met a woman and a maid at Fengyao Bridge, because they were crossing the bridge to Qiu Shuangzhai and When we go to the Champs Elysees, I can only see the background, but I don't see clearly which family the servants are from." Qiu Tong answered in a matter-of-fact manner.
Jia She said in a deep voice: "Which girl lives in Qiushuangzhai and Ouxiang Pavilion?"
Mrs. Daoxiang Village, where the fourth girl and Brother Zhu’s daughter-in-law live,..."
Jia She snorted softly. He knew what Xing meant, and this could not be used as a judgment.
"Qiutong, you go down first." Xing ordered directly.
A hint of coldness flashed in Qiu Tong's eyes, and after kowtowing, she lowered her head and went out.
"Master, Qiu Tong's words are not trustworthy. I have heard about the Feng family's eldest son and second girl, but it is not such an exaggeration at all. It is just a relationship between good brothers and sisters of the whole family..." Wait until Qiu Tong Tong went out and Xing quickly explained.
"Humph, are you so sure? Feng Ziying has a voluptuous nature, and I heard that she has no problem with girls at home. The second girl is too honest. When you meet Feng Ziying, who looks suave on the surface, do you think you can escape his clutches?" Jia She said Dismissively, "Can I still understand his frivolous nature?"
