The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 21
Wang Xifeng was also dumbfounded after hearing Jia Lian's words.

Jia Lian said to himself again,
"You and I are a husband and wife, if something happens in the future, I can't get away with it."

"Even if there is no accident at that time, your good aunt will find someone to report this matter to the government, and my title will be forfeited. Maybe I will have to go to court."

Speaking of this, I hurriedly asked Wang Xifeng and Heping,

"Has there been any deaths this year?"

Wang Xifeng quickly looked at Ping'er, and felt relieved after hearing Ping'er's reply.

Jia Lian couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and then asked Wang Xifeng, "But what else do I not know?"

Wang Xifeng didn't dare to hide any more, and told Zhou Rui's family last month that it would be beneficial for her to ask her son-in-law Leng Zixing to help her with some lawsuits outside.

Jia Lian hurriedly asked, and only felt relieved when she heard that although Wang Xifeng was persuaded, she hadn't had time to act.

"This slut!" Jia Lian wished she could come and beat her to death right now.

Seeing that Wang Xifeng still didn't understand, she couldn't help feeling dizzy.

"You always want to ride on my head, but now you are being calculated like this without knowing it."

"Let me ask you, do you want to use my post if you want to monopolize the lawsuit?"

Seeing him nodding, he went on to say, "Exploitation and lending, and monopolizing lawsuits are all explicitly prohibited by the imperial court's repeated orders."

"Your good aunt instigated her housekeeper Zhou Rui's family to tease you over and over again. If you don't want to kill me, don't let it go."

Having said all this, Wang Xifeng didn't know that she was being tricked by Mrs. Wang, and she couldn't stop cursing immediately.

Ping'er suddenly said, "Second master, grandma, do you think your wife has done this before?"

When Jia Lian heard it, he immediately yelled, "It's broken!"

Seeing that Wang Xifeng and the others didn't understand, I explained to them immediately,
"She must have done these things, let's not talk about loan sharks for now, but whose post she used to take over the lawsuit, it can't be the post of the second old man, Yuan Wailang, right?"

"Master." Wang Xifeng and Ping'er said at the same time, and they all had a new understanding of Mrs. Wang's cruelty.

Knowing this, Jia Lian couldn't sit still, and hurriedly got up to rush to Jia Amnesty.After thinking about it, I went back and told Wang Xifeng,
"Hurry up and get someone to settle the usury matter, even if you can't get the money back, you have to clean up your hands."

After seeing Wang Xifeng's solemn promise, he left in a hurry.

Seeing him go out, Wang Xifeng picked up the teacup and threw it on the ground, saying bitterly to Ping'er,
"Fortunately, she is the aunt of our Wang family, and her methods are clever."

"Let's read the libretto on a donkey, we'll see."

Knowing the seriousness of the matter, she didn't dare to neglect, and asked Ping'er to call Wang'er, the little guy in charge of loan sharks, without explaining to him, and just let him deal with it quickly.

But Jia Lian came to the East Road Courtyard all the way, asked Jia She was in the study, did not report, went around the gatekeeper Wang Baoshan, broke in, and surprised Jia She, who was checking the fan he had just bought recently.

Jia Shen came to his senses, picked up the wine glass on the table and threw it over, cursing angrily,

"You beast doesn't even have this bit of etiquette, isn't it itchy?"

Jia Lian dodged to avoid the flying wine glass, and replied,

"Father, something is wrong."

Jia Amnesty was also stunned when he heard that Jia Lian did not call him the master today, but called him his father.

Jia Lian hurried forward and told him the ins and outs of the incident.

Jia Amnesty was also surprised when he heard that, he hurriedly got up and went to the bookcase next to him, and when he saw that his seal and name stickers were not there.He hurriedly called Wang Baoshan to come in, and asked in a loud voice,
"Where is the master's seal and name sticker?"

Wang Baoshan quickly replied,
"My lord, you forgot that during the Chinese New Year in the old mansion, I had to post a message to each family. I thought it would be too troublesome for me to come to you to get it, so the old lady asked you to temporarily give the seal to the second room."

Jia Lian became anxious when he heard this, and was about to say something, but Jia She waved his hand to stop him and sent Wang Baoshan out, so he paced back and forth in the room.

Before Jia Lian could say anything, he asked,

"You can't think of these things with your brain that was played around by the second room. There must be someone else pointing it out. Tell me, who is it?"

Jia Lian immediately visited Mu Xu's mansion, how he saved Xue Pan, and then came to thank him, and told him what he had said.

After hearing this, Jia Amnesty didn't feel that Mu Xu had other plans. After all, he had only returned to Beijing not long ago, so it was impossible for him to know about his family's affairs.

Seeing that Jia Amnesty was silent again, Jia Lian hurriedly urged,

"Father, the current strategy is to deal with these matters as quickly as possible, so as not to let that side succeed."

Jia Amnesty replied that he had his own opinion.

Jia Lian said unwillingly, "Is that all?"

Jia She sneered,
"I thought you had grown up now, but I didn't expect it to be an embroidered pillow."

Seeing dissatisfaction on Jia Lian's face, he continued,
"The so-called catching the thief and taking the stolen goods, catching the adulterer and taking the double, you have no evidence, go to that poisonous woman to settle the score."

"Red lips and white teeth, no one will believe what you say, and besides, the old lady is already facing that way."

Jia Lian suddenly said, "Father, you mean we should find the evidence first?"

Seeing his excited look, Jia Amnesty couldn't help hitting him, saying,
"So what if you find the evidence? So what if the old lady's temperament is too close to the armpit?"

Seeing that Jia Lian still didn't believe it, Jia Amnesty didn't say much, just said,
"I'll let you see it when the time comes." After saying that, he asked him to back down, saying that he would handle the matter himself, and told him to keep quiet for now, he had his own plan.

Seeing him still dawdling there, he said angrily,

"If you don't go back and watch your daughter-in-law clean up the matter, even a mother-in-law can't control it, what can you do?"

Jia Lian left in a hurry, but as soon as he stepped over the threshold, he heard Jia Amnesty say again,
"You go back and tell your brave daughter-in-law, and next time, let her go back to the Wang family. Didn't she often say that their Wang family is better than ours by sweeping the floor?"

How could Jia Lian dare to answer him, so he fled in a hurry.

Dongping County Prince's Mansion, Songhe Hall.

Mu Xu was also talking about Jia Lian and his wife with his grandmother Zhang Taifei.

Concubine Zhang had a good impression of Wang Xifeng, and she kept praising her in front of Mu Xu, saying that she was generous and not petty like ordinary women.

Mu Xu knew that this was because the old man had been in Beijing alone for a long time, and there were only servants around him, so he was inevitably lonely, so it was natural and joyful to come here to amuse and relieve boredom.

He secretly planned in his heart that he must spend more time with his grandmother.

Now that Wang Xifeng has met her grandmother's eyes, she can take care of their husband and wife in the future.

So when she heard her grandmother praise Wang Xifeng, Mu Xu responded with a smile,

"Since grandma likes her, you can invite her to the mansion to talk with you when you have time. I think she must be willing to come."

Concubine Zhang certainly knew what her grandson meant, how could she fail to understand Wang Xifeng's deliberate flattery today, but she didn't care.

She hesitated, "But there is no hindrance? Their family has not been very good after all these years."

Mu Xu smiled and said, "What kind of hindrance does this have? Jia Lian and his wife are not bad. If there is a chance, our family will give them a hand."

Concubine Zhang then nodded and said with a smile,
"I heard Nan'an Concubine say that Jia Shishi's grandson-in-law is good at speaking and is very good at pleasing people. When I saw her today, she is really good."

"However, no matter how good someone else's granddaughter-in-law is, it belongs to someone else. How can you have your own granddaughter-in-law?"

Hearing what Concubine Zhang said, the girls around Chuntao and Luliu also looked at Mu Xu and covered their mouths and laughed.

Mu Xu's head got dizzy when he heard this. It's easy to talk about other things in ancient times, but this early marriage made him from modern times really unacceptable for a while.

He hurriedly rejected his grandmother, "Grandmother, I don't want to get married so early. Besides, if grandma is lonely, mother and I will just spend more time with you."

"If grandma is really bored, I will accompany grandma to the White Horse Temple to offer incense."

Concubine Zhang can rely on him for everything else, but when it comes to his lifelong events, she is extremely stubborn.

Hearing what he said, he reprimanded, "What do you know as a child, people like us, at your age, who didn't start to look at each other early."

"Choosing a daughter-in-law is not a trivial matter. Family background and appearance all depend on whether the girl is virtuous or not. For a mansion like ours, you have to know how to run the house."

"Boss Lin Lin, from seeing each other to getting married, it can't be done in a short while, don't you have to prepare in advance?"

Mu Xu looked like he had nothing to love in his life. He never thought that he would have to encounter such a situation when he came here after being urged to marry in his previous life.

Concubine Zhang saw him making such an expression, patted his arm, and cursed with a smile,

"You hozen, don't be a monster. Forget it, you don't like to hear about it, I'll discuss it with your mother."
