After hearing what Amber said, Jia Mu was stunned.
It’s just the New Year, why are you fighting someone again? What kind of war is this? Who were you fighting with again?
Mother Jia knew that her little grandson was capable and would definitely not suffer in a battle. She was not too worried, but she was just a little confused.
"Hu Bo, didn't you ask Brother Cong who he was fighting with again?"
Hu Hu said: "Old lady, my servant asked. Those maids were a little far away and didn't hear clearly. Zijuan and the others followed the girls to Ningguo Mansion. How about I go to Ningguo Mansion and ask?"
Jia Mu thought for a moment and said, "That's all. Since Yu'er and the others have gone, you don't have to go. Just ask them when they come back. With Brother Cong's temperament, he shouldn't suffer any loss."
Hu Hu said with a smile: "What the old lady said is that after all these years, I have never heard that Duke Ning Guo suffered a loss."
Jia Mu smiled, what she said was true.
My little grandson, who used to be unknown, started to show up at the age of nine. After taking care of the Lai family, he started practicing martial arts and doing business, and he has been out of control ever since.
After all these years, I have never heard of him suffering from other people's losses.
On the contrary, those who opposed him basically fell into his hands and suffered huge losses from him.
Even an old woman like herself admires Brother Cong's ability.
The next generation of the Jia family finally has someone who can take the lead, and he can rest assured that the old prince is alive in heaven and can rest in peace.
The only regret is that he was adopted into Dongfu.
Although he is still his grandson, he belongs to two houses after all, and the east and west houses have been separated for a long time. Otherwise, the real glory is the Rong Mansion.
At this time Wang Xifeng and Li Wan also came, as did Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang.
As a daughter-in-law and a granddaughter-in-law, you have to serve your mother-in-law and old mother-in-law. Although it is not necessary for four people to serve together, you still have to stand aside and wait.
The girls at home can eat with the old lady, but the daughters-in-law cannot.
In this era, there are a lot of rules in these wealthy families.
Wang Xifeng glanced at the room, but didn't see the sisters-in-law, and she was a little confused. It was already dinner time, why didn't these sisters-in-law come over?
"Ancestor, are you going to serve food now? The younger sisters haven't come over yet. How about I arrange for someone to call them?"
Jia Mu said, "Let someone prepare the food. There's no need to call them. The girls from the Xue family said that Brother Cong was fighting with people outside. The girls were worried and they all went to Dongfu together. It's already dinner time. They will definitely be allowed to eat over there, so I won’t wait for them.”
When Wang Xifeng heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned.
He asked doubtfully: "Who is Brother Cong fighting with during this big holiday? I haven't heard of him fighting anyone else in so many years?"
Mother Jia said: "Those little girls didn't hear clearly. When Yu'er and the others come back, they will know. That bastard is not a loser, so we don't need to worry about him."
Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "What our ancestors said is that Brother Cong has never suffered from others in these years, but others have often suffered from him. This is very similar to our ancestors. He is worthy of being a relative of our ancestors." grandson."
My mother burst out laughing when she heard this.
These words really spoke to her heart. Although she knew it was flattering, she liked it in her heart.
He reached out and tapped Wang Xifeng, and scolded with a smile: "You are a monkey, you only know how to arrange my wife, when have I ever let you suffer? I am much better than that bastard."
When I was young, even though they called me Shi Bingdao, I was not as tossing as Brother Cong. I kept tossing wherever I went. This happened every day, and I never stopped since I came back. "
Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "Fortunately, our ancestor was born as a girl, otherwise, he would have been as capable as Brother Cong.
I heard from my family member Lian Er that he went to Yangzhou two years ago and beat up the Salt Gang on the canal. When he arrived in Yangzhou, he raided four salt merchants. Then he went to Jinling and wiped out the Salt Gang and the Huazi Gang. Brother Cong is You can toss it wherever you go. "
Mrs. Wang said: "Brother Cong, this kid is too troublesome. Old lady, you have to talk about him. This is not the case in the capital. If we keep going like this, we don't know how many people we will offend. By then we will also Then get tired."
When Mrs.
"Although Brother Cong likes to make trouble, he has never taken the initiative to provoke others in so many years. It was others who provoked him first, and he took care of them.
If others are knocking on the door and still have to swallow their anger, how can they protect our Jia family? Where is the dignity of our Jia family? Who will take our Jia family seriously then? "
After hearing this, Mrs. Jia looked at Mrs. Xing in a different light.
There is some truth and insight in what he said. If the Jia family's signboard is erected here, you are not allowed to back down. Otherwise, dogs and cats will all step on you.
In the past few years, the Jia family was in a period of asylum and could only keep a low profile.
Now that Brother Cong has risen and the Jia family has returned to the ranks of the top nobles, the Jia family is no longer allowed to keep a low profile.
"What the eldest daughter-in-law said makes sense. Brother Cong is Ning Guogong now. Apart from the princes of the royal family, who can compare with him? If someone provokes you, you must fight back hard. Let everyone know that the Jia family Not someone to be bullied.
Only if Brother Cong has a tough attitude, others will look at you more highly when you go out. Brother Cong is now the pillar of the Jia family and the signature of the Jia family.
Brother Cong is a strong man, thoughtful and decisive, and he is even better than his grandfather Rong Guogong. We are a martial arts family and started with military exploits. We cannot be overbearing, but we must be strong. "
Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "Our ancestors are still far-sighted. They say that having an elder in the family is like having a treasure. It is really a blessing for the Jia family to have ancestors in the Jia family. It has also trained such an amazing young prince like Brother Cong. It is truly a blessing to the Jia family." A great hero."
My mother laughed happily when she heard this.
"Although Brother Cong has been adopted to Dongfu, he is also my biological grandson. The kung fu he learned was also left by his grandfather Rong Guogong and handed over to him by my old lady."
Mrs.
However, this child is also a loyal and filial person. He is filial to the old lady, he is also filial to my master, and he is also very filial to me as a wife. He never forgets us during the holidays.
He also takes good care of his brothers and sisters. This is the first time I have met such a good child. "
Mrs. Wang glanced at Mrs. My dear son, what have you been doing for a long time? '
Wang Xifeng felt uncomfortable after hearing what Mrs. Xing said later.
He thought to himself, "Our family Lian Er is your son. No matter how good Brother Cong is, he is still your nephew in name. How good is Brother Cong?" Isn't it just giving you something and giving you some money? Did this buy you off? '
Jia Mu nodded, very satisfied with what her eldest daughter-in-law said.
Looking at this eldest daughter-in-law, she is much more pleasing to the eye than before.
"You are right. Brother Cong is indeed a filial child. He has not forgotten about us no matter what. He also cares about his brothers and sisters. This is indeed rare. Let's not talk about him anymore and let's start dinner. "
Wang Xifeng had the food served and served Jia Mu after dinner, and then they went back to eat.
Not long after, Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, Yingchun and Tanchun came back together.
After hearing that the maid said that the old lady asked Amber to come find them, they came to the old lady's room together.
When Jia Mu saw a few people coming back, she asked, "Have you seen Brother Cong? Is he okay? What's the reason for the war?"
Lin Daiyu said: "Old lady, when we passed by, Brother Cong had already gone to bed. He had nothing to do. He just arrested a group of human traffickers last night, and today they raided the Iron Blood Gang who colluded with them. Those people resisted It’s so powerful that Brother Cong took action himself.”
I told Jia Mu about what happened in general.
Mother Jia nodded and said, "Brother Cong, just be fine. These human traffickers make trouble in the capital every year. Meeting Brother Cong is their retribution. This is a good thing for the people."
Tanchun said: "The third brother is still very powerful. He arrested the entire gang of human traffickers in one move. Compared with the third brother, all those officials in the past were nothing but losers."
Mother Jia smiled and said: "Those officials are not all idlers, but most of them are the children of ordinary people. They are not willing to spend a lot of money for some ordinary people. Why don't you see Yun Yatou and Fourth Yatou?"
Lin Daiyu said: "Fourth sister will stay in Dongfu for one day, and sister Yun will stay with her. The two of them will not come over today. They will watch over each other, and everything will be fine."
Mother Jia said: "These two girls are not big, but they are quite courageous. They went out with Brother Cong and their tempers became even wilder. You must keep an eye on them and don't let them get into trouble again."
Lin Daiyu said: "Don't worry, old lady. I have already warned them and told Yuanyang to take good care of them."
With the mandarin ducks watching them, Jia Mu was still relieved.
The sisters chatted with Jia Mu and saw that she was a little sleepy, so they went back to rest.
······
In the blink of an eye, it was the first lunar month, and Lin Daiyu had returned to Lin Mansion.
Jia Cong still went to Dongcheng Military and Horse Division every day to visit, and then went to Lin Mansion to study and practice martial arts with Lin Daiyu.
After three or four months of recuperation, Lin Ruhai's health gradually improved.
Seeing Jia Cong coming to his home every day to play with his baby daughter and ignoring the yamen affairs, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
This is so good, I really want to be as comfortable as I want, and as free as I want.
Lin Ruhai already knew about the Lantern Festival incident. She had a new understanding of Jia Cong's ability. She was completely divided between Jia Cong and the second prince, and she was also a little worried.
Seeing that Jia Cong didn't look worried at all, he didn't know what to say, so he could only tell him to be more careful.
Seeing that the two of them were playing around all day and not studying seriously, he personally took action and taught Jia Cong to read for about an hour every day, so that he could learn more. Jia Cong also began his daily study career.
The days passed like this day by day.
In addition to studying, practicing martial arts, and accompanying Lin Daiyu, I also took time to talk to Xue Baochai, and went to Muni Yuan outside the city to see Miaoyu.
Dai Quan also told Jia Cong the news about the second prince being punished in isolation.
Jia Cong didn't pay too much attention to this matter. He had expected this situation. Emperor Longqing could not punish him severely. After all, he was his biological son.

Jia Cong was not in a hurry to deal with the second prince.
He only asked Tiezhu to arrange for people to conduct a detailed investigation on those who had frequent contact with the second prince.
See if these people are clean. If there is evidence of guilt, investigate directly and follow the clues to dig out all the influence of the second prince.
After a while, the matter calms down, and then you start attacking them again.
However, Jia Cong does not intend to take action himself. If there is a crime, he can just find other people to impeach him after getting the evidence.
Not only did everyone in the court support the second prince, the other princes also made many friends.
You can use the second prince's opponents to come forward to impeach the second prince's minions.
With the solid evidence, it is impossible to protect him.
This can be regarded as killing someone with a borrowed knife. The biggest advantage of doing this is that it will not leave a bad impression in Emperor Longqing's heart, and it can also cut off the second prince's gang members.
When the time comes, the second prince wants to get angry, but he can't find him, so let them go dog-eat-dog.
On this day, just after returning to Ningguo Mansion, Jia Lian came to the door.
He said with a smile on his face: "Brother Cong, the old lady is here to discuss matters with you. Our master and second uncle are also here. Let's go over now."
Jia Cong said: "Second brother, looking at the smile on your face, could it be that something good happened to you?"
Jia Lian smiled and said: "It can be considered a good thing. The matter of the imperial concubine's marriage has been decided. Our Jia family is also planning to build a villa for the princess. Let the eldest sister go home and have a look. I asked you to come over to discuss this matter."
Jia Cong suddenly realized that this was what happened.
During this period of time, I had been running to the Lin Mansion, and I had forgotten this matter.
The news only came out a few days ago, and I didn't expect it to be finalized so quickly.
By letting him go, he is probably asking himself to give up money and land. For him, this is really not a good thing.
This Grand View Garden still needs to be built. In the future, these sisters at home will live in it and add a lot of beauty to the Grand View Garden. I also want to see the real Grand View Garden.
If you really want to occupy Hui Fang Yuan and help build it with your own money, then you will have to fight for the ownership issue when the time comes.
