dream of red mansion

Chapter 394
"Grandma, that Mrs. Zhen wants to see you."

As usual, You Shi came over early in the morning to handle the miscellaneous affairs of the mansion, as usual in the office in charge of the back house, just after arranging the urgent matters, she heard the little maid Miao Dou talking outside.

When You Shi heard this, she thought that Jia Qing valued the mother and daughter more, so she should not neglect her, so she called her to the small living room, and asked the maid to tidy up her appearance before going out to meet her.

"Greetings to grandma."

As soon as he walked into the hall, he saw Feng Shi and Xiang Ling knelt down to pay his respects, You Shi hurriedly said: "No, please get up."

Then he stepped forward to support Feng Shi, and asked her to sit on the side.

Feng Shi didn't expect that everyone in the Jia family would treat her so kindly. For a while, Feng Shi, who was almost 50 years old, was a little choked up, and said:

"I didn't know there was such a good family in the world, such a noble person as the imperial envoy, would take the trouble to find a daughter for me. I am already grateful. I never thought that grandma's family is so benevolent. Good people, I don’t know in which life our mother and daughter cultivated the blessing to meet grandma’s family.”

You Shi smiled and said: "Mrs. Zhen is too polite, as it should be. If your old Mr. Zhen hadn't saved my second uncle back then, we still don't know what happened to our family. Speaking of it, we should thank you You are."

Feng Shi was not moved by You Shi's words. Since ancient times, kindness has been the most unreliable thing, and she has proven it.

Jia Qing learned of Xiangling's whereabouts from Jia Yucun, so, that is to say, before that, Jia Yucun knew of Xiangling's whereabouts, but she has not received any information all this time!
She didn't know the relationship between Zhen Shiyin and Jia Qing, but she knew the relationship between Jia Yucun and her family!At that time, Jia Yucun was just a down-and-out student who couldn't even make up the schedule to enter Beijing. It was Zhen Shiyin who offered the schedule as a gift, and also edited two books to help him find a place in Beijing.
Later, she even married Jiao Xing, the only personal maid around her, to Jia Yucun as a concubine (now she has been rectified).Such a close relationship is unreliable, let alone others?

"I came to look for grandma today because I want to ask grandma for permission." Feng Shi said.

"Madam Zhen, please tell me."

"Now that I have found my daughter, it is naturally a very happy thing for me, but, to be honest, my family has long been in ruins, and now I don't even have a place to live. So, if grandma doesn't dislike it, I want to marry Yingying. Together with Lian, serve the girls and grandmas in the mansion, no matter what you do, just want to have a shelter."

Youshi was taken aback, and said, "Was Mrs. Zhen used to be...?"

Since Jia Qing promised to help find someone, he will naturally help Xiangling get rid of his slave status after he finds him.Why does she not do good work as a good commoner, but still serve as a slave?
The Feng family knows that everyone's family does not accept slaves and maids at random. After all, there is a saying that goes, "Defense by day and night, and house thieves are hard to guard against"?In order to prove that he is not someone with impure motives, Feng Shi explained:
"Since her husband passed away, the women have been living with their natal father. My father is a farmer with little knowledge.
Originally, I depended on my family to live alone, which made him unhappy for a long time, but there was nothing he could do.

But Xiangling is different, she is still so young, if I bring her back to her grandfather's house, her grandfather will definitely not be happy, plus his vulgar and philistine temperament, I can't say what will happen to Xiangling.

The daughter I finally found, I never dare to bring her into the fire pit again
On the way here, I had already thought about it. If I could find Yinglian during this trip, I would not be able to take her back to her grandfather's house no matter what.

If grandma is kind enough to take us in, we, mother and daughter, will be like cows and horses, and we will definitely repay grandma's family for their great kindness."

The saying that my daughter is a money loser is not just a saying!It is something that actually exists in the minds and concepts of many people.

Feng Shi knew very well that her father Feng Su was such a person.What's more, Xiangling was abducted and sold since she was a child, and she was a money-loser with a "bad reputation". In such a situation, the treatment Xiangling received when she returned to Daruzhou (where Feng Su's family is located) can be seen.

After hearing Feng's words, Youshi couldn't make up his mind for a while.Logically speaking, given the circumstances of Jia's mansion, it would be a simple matter to take her mother and daughter in. That is, Feng's mother and daughter are the widows of Jia Qing's benefactor, Zhen Shiyin, and it is somewhat unreasonable to let the benefactor's widow be a servant at home.

However, according to Feng Shi, Grandpa Xiangling's house is not allowed to go, otherwise, who knows when Xiangling will be sold by his grandfather again!Even if you don't sell it, if you just marry a businessman as a concubine, isn't Jia Qing helping to find someone for nothing?

It would be a trivial matter to buy a house for her mother and daughter in Beijing.It's just that their mother and daughter, one old and one young, have neither property nor support, and Xiangling is still a pretty girl with many problems.
"I can't make up my mind on this matter. I'd better wait for my second uncle to come back, and I'll explain it to him personally, and see what he says. So, do you think so?" In the end, You Shi could only reply Feng Shi in this way.

Feng Shi was overjoyed, and said again and again: "So, thank you grandma."

Youshi said gently: "Okay, Madam Zhen, go back first, and I will send someone to tell you when there is a result. In addition, if you need anything in the mansion, just tell the servant girls and let them do it. "

"Don't bother, don't bother"

As Feng said, she pulled Xiangling to her knees and said, "Thank you grandma."

Youshi couldn't stop her, so he had to let her go, and then ordered the silver plate: "You send Madam Zhen back, and then come back."

"Yes."

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, a debate has already begun.

"Report to Your Majesty, I believe that Jia Qing's words are sophistry, and his collusion with bandits has become a fact, so how could he be able to get rid of the crime with such smooth words! I beg Your Majesty to punish him!"

On the Golden Luan Hall, Wei Yu, the right servant of the Ministry of Industry, suddenly stepped out and said to the emperor above.

He suddenly stood up, which surprised many people.After all, with Wei Zhan's qualifications in the court, it would give people a feeling of losing their identity to come out to impeach a young boy who has just entered the court.

"Wei Aiqing thinks, what should Jia Qing do?"

Wei Zhuan said: "Although Jia Qing became famous at a young age, he did not cultivate his virtues and was not upright. If he was not upright, he would be an upright official. Therefore, I beg Your Majesty to remove Jia Qing from his post in the military department and order him to shut himself up and think about his mistakes. Be an example to others."

Xu Wei's appearance gave people confidence. The emperor was thinking about it, and another censor jumped out and said, "Young minister Yang Yan also has a play!"

"Precise play."

This censor does not seem to be as old as Wei Zhu, but he said impassionedly: "In addition to the definite crimes mentioned by Mr. Wei, I want to impeach Jia Qing for two other crimes!"

Jia Qing tilted his head and glanced at the censor who was standing behind him, curled his lips in disdain, then turned his head and stared at the two lifelike carved dragon heads before he boarded the throne.

Unexpectedly, his slight move was just seen by the censor, and his heart suddenly became angry, and his voice doubled: "I told Jia Qing to despise the holy grace, and I borrowed Jiangnan Daijun to condolences to Lin Ruhai. , Exploiting the salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River and amassing money wantonly.

Second, sue him for being defiant and abusing his power.Tian Liren of Jinling Governor's Mansion was a dignified third-rank military attache appointed by the imperial court, and he personally led troops to help him suppress the bandits, but he ignored him and beheaded him.

These two have seriously violated the laws of the country and are a burden to His Majesty's grace. I implore Your Majesty to punish him severely! "
