Red Mansion Huacai

Chapter 237 Wishful Thinking

The Ningguo Mansion was in chaos. This morning, I borrowed servants to spread the word and went out looking for the foreign monk Badomina. I didn't mention it, but everything was as usual in the Rongguo Mansion.

Although two characters of "Jia" cannot be written in one stroke, they are separated by a palace wall. Moreover, it is already the end of the twelfth lunar month, and it seems that the eldest girl will have to visit her relatives in twenty days, because the whole family is very busy.

Early that morning, Ping'er pushed Wang Xifeng to look for Mrs. Wang's courtyard. The maid informed, and several women pushed the wheelchair across the threshold. They walked around the screen and saw Aunt Xue and Baochai already seated inside.

Baochai's face was demure, Aunt Xue was smiling and talking to Yan Yan, and although Mrs. Wang also had a smile on her face, she was a little stiff.

Seeing Wang Xifeng's arrival, Aunt Xue stood up and said, "Brother Feng is here. I have nothing important to discuss with my sister, so Baochai and I will go back first."

Mrs. Wang nodded in agreement and hurriedly sent the maid to see him off.

Before leaving the house, Aunt Xue exchanged a few words with Wang Xifeng, and then took Baochai out of the house. Wang Xifeng was filled with suspicion, feeling that the two sisters seemed to have something secret.

When he turned around, he saw that Mrs. Wang had already lowered her face and said, "What do you want from me again?"

Wang Xifeng said: "The eldest master just sent someone to say that the money for lanterns, fireworks, and curtains must be settled. But... Madam also knows that the government is really short of money now. I don't know where to spend this money." ah?"

Mrs. Wang asked: "How much money do you need?"

Wang Xifeng agreed and was about to mention something else when suddenly a woman came in a hurry, opened the curtain, turned around the screen, and said in a panic: "Madam, Second Grandma, it's not good, there's a team coming from outside." Son, the Ningguo Mansion is surrounded!"

Only when you take a break can you be a matchmaker again, so that Fourth Master Jian can communicate with the girl Hongyan.

It is difficult to communicate with each other, so it is Daiyu and Li Weijian who are talking about it.

Daiyu's figure stagnated, and then she lifted up her skirt and climbed up the stairs: "I am a filial piety person, and I stay in my boudoir...how can we communicate easily?"

Mrs. Wang couldn't believe it, she shook her head and said: "It's just a plan, how can you mobilize troops and mobilize people like this?"

At this moment, the Rongqing Hall was in a panic. Mrs. Another mother-in-law came to report that the Ningguo Mansion had closed its doors and no one was allowed in. Jia She was checking what was going on inside.

Xue Yan nodded ignorantly, feeling that Fourth Master Jian was really powerful. What a powerful method it was, she was vague in her mind. After thinking about it, he added: "It's just that if Fourth Master Jian offends the Rongguo Mansion, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have contact with him in the future."

Daiyu then said: "Fourth brother Jian just suffered an unreasonable disaster, how can he have anything to do with him? The one who stole the drawings was an old servant of Ningguo Mansion, and the one who instigated it was Brother Rong, the son of the East Courtyard. The court was just a mastermind, no matter what. You can’t hit Fourth Brother Jian on the head.”

Xue Yan said: "What the girl said is true, she is just afraid that if this matter comes out, Fourth Master Jian will hate Rongguo Mansion..."

Daiyu smiled and said: "This is too much. Not to mention what Fourth Brother Jian can do, just because of the title of the second-class uncle, the Rongguo Mansion will only win over him, so how can he dare to alienate him on purpose?"

............................................................

"Go and have a look."

Then he whispered: "I'm afraid it's a big deal outside, and it won't be useful if we gather together in one place. I don't think it's better to retreat and disperse before Brother Lian and the eldest master come."

Wang Xifeng thought for a while and said, "Could it be that what happened yesterday happened?"

Daiyu stopped in front of the stairs, looking at the steps with a pair of eyes that seemed to be weeping but not crying: "Today, Fourth Brother Jian has become powerful. The saint has faith and is attracted by all factions. Fourth Brother Jian is neither a party nor a group, only He only wants to make money for the court, and if there is a blind person who has his mind set on it, all the princes in the court will definitely expel him from the court without waiting for Fourth Brother Jian to take action."

Xueyan and Zicuckoo looked at each other, and Zicuckoo whispered: "From now on, I will take two days off from bathing every month."

Wang Xifeng glanced briefly at Mrs. Wang and saw that she looked at her mouth through her nose and her heart through her mouth. She couldn't help but twist the beads, and her heart became clear. Brother Jian must have made Mrs. Wang jealous for being so capable. As the saying goes, "There are people who hate others, but there are no people who laugh at them." If there is a comparison between brothers, whether sincerely or not, who wouldn't give a compliment to brother Bao in person?

Mrs. Wang blurted out: "Could it be that Brother Jian reported this matter to the court early this morning?"

Hearing Mrs.

Daiyu stands tall and graceful, and when she hears a few words spoken outside, she has an idea in her mind. A pair of eyebrows were slightly frowned, and after thinking about it for a while, they relaxed again.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Mrs. Wang say again: "With these 30,000 taels, the money is probably enough. Let's settle the previous debts first. We are not going to visit relatives in the first spring, so we can't spread the word that our family still owes money." It’s really easy to say but not nice to hear.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang glanced sideways at Wang Xifeng, her face was calm, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart.

"The master reported the account, totaling 1,900 taels." Seeing Mrs. Wang frowning, Wang Xifeng said: "Now that it's the New Year, everything has increased by 20 to 30%, and even the cost of hiring a craftsman is much more expensive. "

Mrs. Wang only glanced at him and said nothing. Wang Xifeng was very smart and suddenly understood. I guess Mrs. Wang was just discussing with Aunt Xue about borrowing money from the Xue family, right?

Wang Xifeng couldn't help but frown and thought to herself, how could Aunt Xue be so easy to get along with? If Mrs. Wang is not willing to give up the huge benefit, how can Aunt Xue be willing to borrow the money?

Tan Chun was smart and immediately nodded and said, "Sister Lin said yes."

Daiyu had always been at ease and polite in her behavior. When interacting with Li Weijian, she only said things that you knew and I knew. Even if he didn't, as long as he thought about it in his heart, she would be satisfied.

"Ah?" Wang Xifeng exclaimed, and Mrs. Wang even stood up in shock: "But you can see clearly, it is indeed a fan of the Shenxing Department?"

The woman then said, "It's true. Manager Lai saw it with his own eyes. Both the front and back doors were blocked. The leader is Wu Qian, the doctor of the Shenxing Division."

Wang Xifeng then said: "Madam, I am afraid that the old lady has gained the trust now, so there is no need to rush."

Because the four girls came out and spoke to the old lady, then they dispersed. Daiyu led Zicuckoo and Snow Goose back to the back building. As soon as they entered the back building, Xue Yan couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you stay and listen for a while, miss? What does it have to do with Fourth Master Jian?"

No matter what, Brother Jian took good care of her and it was not easy for others to slander her. Wang Xifeng then smiled and said: "What the eldest lady is saying is that brother Jian has always been true to his word, and I don't expect him to do such a treacherous thing. We are in a panic right now, so it would be better to wait until we get accurate information before we worry about it."

After returning to the main room and taking off her outer cloak, Aunt Xue let out a long sigh of relief. After sending the maid down, Aunt Xue took Baochai and said, "Now that your aunt has finally spoken out, my son, this matter will probably be settled at 50 percent."

But they said that Daiyu and Sanchun were hiding in the Bisha cupboard at the moment and could hear the noise outside. The fourth girl Xichun just said that the matter had nothing to do with her; the third girl Tanchun was secretly angry and wanted to come out to refute Mrs. Wang; the second girl Yingchun Feeling uneasy, I wanted to argue but was too shy to speak.

There was silence in the Rongqing Hall, and Mrs. Xing hurriedly said: "Brother Jian's character is such that he can't keep his word, right? Didn't he promise to come to Xu Dongfu for three days yesterday?"

Wang Xifeng blinked and said in surprise: "Where did the account come from?"

Even though he praises me now, with Brother Jian comparing him, the praise loses its flavor. I also thought, maybe it was because Brother Jian supported me that she made Mrs. Wang unhappy?

Jia Mu then nodded and said, "Brother Jian is a good man, and he would never be so ruthless and unjust."

Mrs. Wang sighed and said: "Then let's settle the account. Mr. Zhongxin has just received thirty thousand taels."

The aunt and nephew made a plan and hurriedly left Mrs. Wang's courtyard and headed towards Jia Mu's Rongqing Hall.

Mrs. Wang said: "Why did you provoke this black-faced god?"

Go to the small courtyard in the northeast.

Sister Bao nodded quietly and said, "What Auntie said just now was not clear, I'm afraid..."

Aunt Xue said with a smile: "How else to clarify? There is a mother-in-law above your aunt, who treats Baoyu as a treasure like eyeballs. The old lady always has to nod before the matter is settled." After a pause, he added: " Speaking of which, Baoyu has been looking for you more often this year?"

Baochai nodded, and then said in surprise: "I don't know why, but Sister Lin has been very estranged from Brother Bao since she returned from Yangzhou. First she moved to the back building, and now she plays naughty together, often with her third sister. There are more children.”

Aunt Xue said: "What did I say before? She was still young at that time and didn't know the difference between men and women. Now that she has been home for a year, she is getting older and knows things, isn't it true that we are separated? It will be the same as before. What does it look like when two little ones get together?"

Baochai nodded, but had other thoughts in mind. Daiyu had a lot of contact with Fourth Brother Jian before going south, but when she returned this time, she was no longer separated from Fourth Brother Jian. Could it be that the marriage between these two people has been decided?

Although she was filled with regrets, Sister Bao knew that she could no longer climb the Li family's family tree, and felt a little sad. However, she also hoped that the matter between the two of them would be settled soon, so that Brother Bao's thoughts would be over.

But now that Brother Jian had already moved away from Rongguo Mansion, he could only meet Daiyu on his hands, and because the female official in the palace was blocking him, Sister Bao didn't understand what was going on for a while.

At this moment, the nanny hurried in and shouted: "It's incredible, Ningguo Mansion is surrounded by fans. Uncle Rong was even taken to the prison by the fans. It's hard to say that Ningguo Mansion is in trouble this time." lawsuit!"

The mother and daughter were surprised and hurriedly sent the nanny to go and clean again. The plan was discussed for a long time, but to no avail. After all, the two of them are just housewives, so how do they know about the ups and downs in the outside world?

Then the nanny left and came back again, saying that the eldest master Jia She was just looking for old friends and worrying about this matter. The mother and daughter discussed for a long time and concluded that the Rongguo Mansion would not be implicated in any case, and then they relaxed a little.

Suddenly, the maid Ying'er was about to come in and said, "I saw Second Master Bao coming this way."

Aunt Xue and Baochai looked at each other, and Aunt Xue hurriedly told Ying'er: "Go and get the gold collar at the bottom of the box and put it on the girl."

Ying'er didn't have time to agree, and hurriedly found a gold collar and a treasure hairpin to put on. After that, Aunt Xue held Ying'er and warned her for a long time.

Hearing the maids greeting Baoyu outside, Aunt Xue had just finished some acupuncture with the maids.

Seeing Baoyu come in, Aunt Xue hurriedly pulled him, hugged him in her arms, and said with a smile: "It's so cold, my son, it's hard for you to think about me. Come and sit on the kang!"

He hurriedly ordered someone to pour boiling tea. Baoyu asked: "Brother is not at home?"

Aunt Xue sighed: "He is a horse without a bridle. He can't go shopping every day. How can he be at home for a day!"

Baoyu said, "Sister, are you well?"

Baochai occasionally felt cold a few days ago, and Baoyu has not been seen for a few days.

Aunt Xue said: "But, you are thinking of sending someone to see her again. She is in the inner room. Go and see her! The inner room is warmer than here. Sit there. I will clean up and go in to talk to you."

When Baoyu heard about it, he hurriedly got off the kang and came to the inner door. He saw a half-old soft red curtain hanging. Baoyu lifted the curtain and stepped in. He first saw Xue Baochai sitting on the kang doing needlework, with a shiny black hairpin on her head. She was wearing a honey-colored cotton jacket, a rose, purple and gold silver mouse shoulder-to-shoulder jacket, and a green and yellow silk cotton skirt, all in one and a half colors. New but not old, it doesn’t look luxurious. The lips are red without dots, the eyebrows are green without paint; the face is like a silver basin, and the eyes are like apricots.

Baoyu looked at it and asked, "Is my sister fully recovered?"

Baochai looked up and saw Baoyu coming in. He quickly stood up and replied with a smile: "It's already fine. Thank you for remembering me!"

After saying that, he asked him to sit on the edge of the Kang and ordered Ying'er to pour tea. On the one hand, he asked the old lady and aunt how well the other sisters were; on the other hand, he saw Baoyu wearing a purple gold crown with silk inlays on his head, two dragons grabbing gold to wipe his forehead, and wearing an autumn fragrant white standing snake with white fox armpits. The arrow sleeves are tied with five-color butterfly and luan ribbons. On the neck are longevity locks and name charms, and there is also a piece of jade that was picked up when the grass fell.

Baochai said with a smile: "The Chengri family said that you have never appreciated this jade in detail. I want to take a look today." As he said that, he moved closer. Baoyu also came up, took it off from his neck, and handed it into Baochai's hand. The treasure hairpin is held in the palm of the hand, and it is as big as a bird's egg, as bright as a bright cloud, as smooth as a crisp, and wrapped in five-color patterns.

After Baochai finished looking at it, he turned it over again to take a closer look, and said in his mouth: "Don't lose it, don't forget it, and the immortal life will be prosperous."

After reading it twice, he turned back to Ying'er and said with a smile: "Why are you here in a daze if you don't go to pour tea?"

Ying'er giggled and said, "I heard these two sentences seem to be the same as the two sentences on the girl's collar."

Baoyu listened and said with a smile: "It turns out that my sister's collar also has eight characters on it. I also appreciate it."

Baochai said: "Don't listen to what he says, there are no words."

Baoyu smiled and begged: "Good sister, why are you looking at me!"

Baochai couldn't be bothered by him, because he said: "It was also someone who gave me two auspicious words, so I chiseled it and told me to carry it with me every day; otherwise, what's the point of being heavy!" As he said this, he unbuttoned his breasts. From inside, the big red coat took out the glittering and golden Yingluo. When Baoyu hurriedly took a look at the lock, he found that there were four seal characters on one side and eight characters on the two sides, forming two auspicious sentences: never leave, never abandon, and will continue forever.

Baoyu read it, read it twice, and then read his own twice. He smiled and asked, "Sister, these eight characters really match mine."

Ying'er smiled and said, "It was given by a leprous monk. He said it must be chiseled on gold."

Before Baochai could finish speaking, she scolded her for not pouring the tea, and asked Baoyu where she came from.

Let's not mention this side for the moment, let's say that the eldest master Jia She walked into the house and headed towards Jia Mu's courtyard. Although the elder is greedy and absurd, Qin Hui still has three friends, let alone Jia She, who has seized the throne.

He and the policemen searched to no avail, so he simply went to the Yamen of the Fifth Army Headquarters. After finding out the reason, he frowned and hurried back. After entering the Rongqing Hall and just walking around the screen, Jia Mu couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? What's going on?"

"Mother, please let me take a breath and drink some water."

Jia's mother hurriedly ordered someone to serve tea, and Yuanyang brought a cup of warm tea. The elder Jia She took a careful look at Yuanyang, and then he picked up the tea cup and drank it all.

After wiping his mouth briefly, he said: "I just went to the Fifth Army Headquarters to find some old friends, and finally got a general idea. Mother, I am afraid that Dongfu is in danger this time."

"what?"

Jia She immediately talked about what happened in the court hall today, which made everyone in the Jia family frown.

King Zhongshun actually brought this matter to the court, and a small matter became a big deal, not to mention that this matter was not small in the first place.

Jia's mother secretly thought that Ning and Rong's two houses were connected, and now that Jia Zhen was trapped in the house and couldn't move around, she had to rescue her;

Mrs. Wang secretly thought to herself, seeing that Yuanchun was about to visit her relatives, something happened at this moment. If she offended the saint... wouldn't it implicate her eldest daughter?

Mrs. Xing squinted her eyes and saw Mrs. Wang frowning and twirling her prayer beads. Suddenly she thought about it and said, "Old lady, I think you might as well ask the eldest lady to deliver a few words in the palace?"

"No!" Mrs. Wang immediately shouted: "How early will it be until Yuanchun is granted the title of concubine? And the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. If the saint is harmed because of this, not only the Ningguo Mansion, but our Rongguo Mansion will also suffer."

Mother Jia knew what she was talking about and said, "What Madam said is that it's not a good idea to trouble the eldest daughter... The eldest master might as well go to Beijing Wang's and Wang's houses and always have something to say and talk about. That's right, The Department of Precaution and Punishment has been mobilized, so what crime can Brother Rong be convicted of this time?"

The elder Jia She shook his head and said: "It's hard to say. Stealing weapons means beheading the prisoner. Even if you ask for love, you will have to travel three thousand miles."

"Blindness, is it so serious?" Jia Mu was startled.

The elder continued: "Not only that, Brother Zhen may also be guilty of lax parenting, and his title may even be reduced."

"What should we do?" Jia Mu was at a loss what to do.

Jia Zhen leads the third-rank general's lords, which can at least support the facade of Ningguo Mansion, but the lords below him cannot attack. If that day comes, it is impossible to say that even the imperial palace will be taken back.

At this time, Mrs. Wang said: "The person who ties the bell needs to be untied. I think we might as well let brother Jian walk around?"

Wang Xifeng secretly thought, this aunt is really vicious. The Jian brothers had already suffered a terrible disaster, but now it was King Zhongshun who had a grudge against the Jia family and had nothing to do with him. As a result, you didn’t tell anyone about the disaster, but you still asked others to come forward to speak out? Where in the world can such truth exist?

The eldest man twitched the corner of his mouth with half his face. Although he had a similar affinity with Jia Zhen, he didn't want to involve his son-in-law. Just as he was about to refute, he suddenly changed his mind. Brother Jian's title is too high now, and Yingchun is not worthy of it. If he is guilty of a crime, wouldn't the title be demoted to a lower level... Wouldn't it be suitable?

Besides, what does that title have to do with his eldest brother? Even if he loses his title, Brother Jian's gold and silver will not be taken away.

As the words came to his lips, the eldest master Jia She suddenly changed his tone: "That makes sense. Brother Jian is now aloof in the court. He has the trust of the saint and is protected by the elder Yan Ge. If Brother Jian asks for help, Yes, it’s impossible to say that saints will always be lenient.”

Mrs. But Mrs. Xing's background was too low, and she always took what the elder said, so she hurriedly said, "Yes, old lady. Brother Jian is a kind and righteous man, and he treats Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law like his own sister." , I’ll let Brother Zhu’s daughter-in-law put in a good word later, why can’t this be done just because we can’t talk about it?”

Wang Xifeng in the wheelchair was immediately stunned. It took her a long time to understand what the parents-in-law were thinking. Suddenly he gritted his teeth secretly, thinking that these parents-in-law were very vicious. Not only did he harm Brother Jian, but he also dragged Brother Jian into the water...

Whether it was for the joint venture to make a living or for the friendship in daily life, Wang Xifeng had to change his mind now. Otherwise, wouldn't there be a gap between him and Brother Jian in the future?

Because Wang Xifeng said, "I don't understand these external affairs. I wonder if Brother Jian will be punished in the court today?"

The elder curled his lips and said, "It's just a year's salary."

Wang Xifeng then thought to himself: "I am punished with a year's salary. The crime is neither light nor serious, and the pattern is extremely important. It shows that the saint is willing to protect Brother Jian. Brother Jian should be careful in his words and deeds at this time. If he asks for permission again, The saint walked around Brother Rong, is this... a little ignorant?"

Mrs. Wang glanced sideways and suddenly said: "The shortest way to take advantage of others is to eat them. Sister Feng has benefited from Brother Jian. She is always trying to protect her when she says angry words."

Wang Xifeng immediately said: "Madam, you have already said that. Brother Jian is also a relative of our own family. There is no reason to harm one family for the sake of another relative."

At this time, Jia's mother was still able to handle the importance of things, but now Li Weijian was not what he used to be, and he was granted the title of second-class uncle. Moreover, Li Weijian's title was a real achievement, not a covert attack. With the ability to turn stone into gold, anyone on stage will only make friends and will not make enemies for no reason.

Li Weijian has always been friendly with his family. Is it worth offending Li Weijian in order to save Jia Rong from Ningguo Mansion? Clearly not worth it.

Although Jia Rong is the legitimate son, Jia Zhen is only in her thirties, so it's not like she can't give birth...

After making up her mind, Jia Mu said: "After all, it's Dongfu's fault. How can I trouble brother Jian again? In my opinion, it's better to go to Beijing King and Wang's house and talk about it, so as to avoid some sins."

When Jia Mu made the decision, everyone agreed, saying that the old lady had thought it through. It's just that the elder had other ideas in mind, so he agreed face to face, waited for Jia Zheng to return, and after some deliberation, he turned to Jia Lian and said, "Go to Brother Jian's house and let Brother Jian talk about it." item."

Jia Lian's face stiffened, and then he said: "Father, didn't the old lady just say..."

Jia She immediately scolded: "Brother Zhen and Brother Rong have always been good friends with you. How can we bear to sit idly by and do nothing if there is even the slightest chance? You are also on good terms with Brother Jian, and your wife is a partner with Brother Jian." I started a greenhouse business, and I lowered my face and begged for permission, and I guess Brother Rong escaped."

"This -" Jia Lian cursed in his heart. How could he be willing to offend Li Weijian?

Seeing this, Jia She slapped the case hard and said, "That's all, if you don't go, then I'll come and visit you!"

Filial piety is paramount, Jia She said so, Jia Lian had no choice but to agree in person. Turning back to the room to change clothes, Wang Xifeng and Ping'er happened to return.

Seeing Jia Lian change his clothes, Wang Xifeng said: "It's been a while now, who are you going to meet with?"

Jia Lian was feeling annoyed and hummed: "The eldest master sent me on an errand to beg brother Jian."

Wang Xifeng was shocked and said: "The old lady didn't say something just now, why did she still go to beg Brother Jian?"

Jia Lian said angrily: "Who knows what the lord is thinking? Seeing that I refused to go, he wanted to go by himself. I saw that I couldn't shirk it, so I had to agree."

Wang Xifeng then said: "He caused mischief and made us bear the blame. How can there be such a reason in the world?"

"Making trouble?"

Wang Xifeng then said: "Brother Jian is the most benevolent and righteous person. If we ask for mercy, no matter how reluctant we are, we will have to agree. At this moment, the saint is annoyed, and brother Jian immediately asked for mercy, which angered the saint. If you can't say it, you have to accept it." Take the blame. The eldest man only wanted the second girl to marry Brother Jian, but now he was worried that Brother Jian's family was too high and it would be difficult for the second girl to get along with him. Wouldn't it be a good idea if Brother Jian was deprived of his rank this time?

When the marriage is finalized, Brother Rong is rescued, and we are separated from Brother Jian... Tsk, tsk, kill three birds with one stone! "

Jia Lian is not as intelligent as Wang Xifeng. Hearing this, his face suddenly dropped: "That's how it is... What should we do now?"

Wang Xifeng snorted and said, "Tell it like it is. If you tell me what happened in Rongqing Hall just now, and then reveal the elder's thoughts, you can treat Brother Frugal as a good boy, and we can stay out of it."

Jia Lian was immediately overjoyed: "Okay, let's do it like this!"

Just after this moment, Jia Lian hurriedly got on his carriage and headed towards Li Mansion. Two moments later, the carriage and horses arrived at Li's house. They exchanged a few words with Wu Haiping who came up to greet him, and were immediately led to the study to wait.

Because Jia Lian got Wang Xifeng's idea, he was calm and calm now, not panicked. After waiting for a moment, Li Weijian came with a sad face.

"Why are you here, second brother?"

Jia Lian hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I heard that Brother Jian has been dragged down, so I came over to take a look."

"We brothers, don't be polite, sit down and talk."

The two were seated separately as guest and host, and a maid served them tea. Recently, Wang Xifeng injured his leg and restrained Jia Lian from touching Ping'er, so Jia Lian could only find a young boy to make trouble. At this moment, he caught a glimpse of Bi Tong who was bringing tea, and his eyes straightened for a long time.

When he looked back, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Jian is so handsome."

Li Weijian smiled and said: "Second brother is well-known in Jinling. Why are you envious of me now?"

"It's all over, it's all over, haha...Brother Jian," Jia Lian quickly turned to the topic: "I won't talk nonsense. This time I came, but I was forced to come by the big master."

"Oh?"

At that moment, Jia Lian told what Rong Qingtang said, what the eldest master ordered, and what the eldest master had planned.

Li Weijian's face was calm. After listening for a while, he realized that Jia Lian must have been prompted by Sister Feng. Otherwise, how could he tell everything in detail?

Then I thought about it, this Jia She is really capable of scheming, Mrs. Wang is even more vicious! But... he seems to regard himself as a good old guy who dares not speak out when being bullied?

The second girl is seventeen years old when she welcomes the Spring Festival. She will delay it for a year or two at most, and she has to discuss the marriage no matter what. I have to think of a way to delay it a little longer...

After thinking for a while, Li Weijian said: "I accept the second brother's intention, but if I go back like this, I'm afraid it won't be easy for the second brother to explain, right?"

Jia Lian smiled carelessly: "What else can I do? It's just a scolding, it's not serious."

Li Weijian said sternly: "How can this kind of thing harm the second brother? Why don't I come to the door immediately to complain, so I can take the second brother out?"

"This -" Jia Lian was not impatient. After thinking about it, it seemed that it would do no harm to him, and then he smiled and said, "Isn't it too much trouble?"

"What's this worth? It's just a matter of taking two more steps. Second brother will return first, and I will go to the door right away."

Jia Lian agreed and left immediately.

As soon as Jia Lian left, Li Weijian was fully dressed on the back and led the guards towards Rongguo Mansion. Within two moments, when they arrived in front of De Rongguo Mansion, disciple Yu Liu caught a glimpse of Li Weijian's bicycle frame and immediately stepped forward to greet him with a smile.

When the curtain was lifted, he saw Li Weijian jumping down with a gloomy face. His heart suddenly thumped. He did not dare to neglect at that moment and hurriedly sent people to the inner house to report.

The chief manager, Lai Da, came up first and started talking about his own business, trying to plead for mercy for his nephew. However, he saw that Li Weijian had a gloomy look on his face that seemed to have the words "No strangers allowed in" written on it, and he didn't even look at Lai Da. With one glance, he took a big step and walked straight inside.

After receiving the letter, Jia Lian hurriedly greeted Li Weijian in front of Yimen and led Li Weijian to Rongqing Hall.

At this time, when the time was approaching, a group of people were waiting in front of Jia's mother to make arrangements for their son, and they were just informed that Li Weijian had arrived, which naturally surprised everyone.

When Li Weijian turned around the screen and went inside, he greeted Jia Mu with a sullen face. Jia Mu then said, "Brother Jian, why are you here now? Is there something wrong?"

Li Weijian forced a smile on his face and saw his eldest sister Li Wan looking at him worriedly; the second girl even wore a handkerchief to welcome the spring, her brows furrowed; The veil seemed to be about to be squeezed out of water, and the worry in my heart was self-evident.

He immediately raised his hands to Jia Mu and said, "Old lady, I'm here today because I have something unclear and I want to ask the old lady."

"Brother Jian, please tell me."

"Dare I ask...Have this junior ever harmed the Jia family?"

Although Jia Mu didn't know the reason, she immediately said: "Brother Jian, where did you come from? What happened to Brother Rong was all his own fault. Speaking of which, it actually dragged down Brother Jian."

Li Weijian let out a long breath, and then asked softly: "In that case, why did the second brother Lian come to the door just now and ask me to speak to the saint for Brother Rong?"

"Ah?" Jia's mother was shocked and immediately annoyed. She looked at Jia Lian and said, "Brother Lian, who told you to go find Brother Jian?"

Jia Lian hesitated and refused to speak.

Jia Mu slapped the table and said, "Yuanyang, go and invite the great master!"
