Red Mansion Huacai
Chapter 289 Two faces and three swords
Chapter 289 Duplicity
In the concierge, Jia Qiang was sitting in the concierge today, waiting for Mrs. Wang's instructions. Mrs. Wang knew clearly that this matter of plagiarizing the Lai family must be kept under the radar of her own family.
However, Jia She, the eldest son, was paralyzed. Since he inherited the throne, Jia Lian has been greedy and lustful every day, and rarely takes care of the common affairs. Even though Jia Lian was the leader of the matter, Mrs. Wang didn't want to let Dafang take advantage of it.
Because of much thought, I recruited Jia Qiang a few days ago.
For one thing, Jia Qiang was originally the great-great-grandson of the Ning Mansion. Although Jia Zhen sent her away to live alone in a hospital, she was supported by the Ning Mansion and lived a happy life. Once the Ning Mansion collapsed, Jia Qiang's life went from bad to worse. How could she not hate the Lai family in her heart?
Secondly, Jia Qiang is a prudent person, and now that she has no relatives to look after her, she only needs to share some benefits, and she will help herself.
Mrs. Wang had called Jia Qiang a few days ago to win over her, and Jia Qiang was indeed grateful. A young man came looking for him early that morning, asking Mr. Qiang to come to his house to do some work.
Jia Qiang drank two cups of tea and felt a little uneasy. This time she was just explaining a few purchases after Mrs. Wang took over the housekeeping duties. But looking at the dozens of servants armed with guns and clubs gathered outside Yimen, Jia Qiang knew that something was going wrong, and secretly wondered if she was going to find the right noble person this time.
While he was thinking about it, a young boy suddenly came to look for him and said: "Second Master Qiang, my wife has given orders. The Lai family is corrupt and guilty. My wife asked Second Master Qiang to lead the boys to raid the Lai family!" "
"Huh?" Jia Qiang frowned slightly, then stood up suddenly and said ferociously: "Say it again!"
The boy said it again, and Jia Qiang took a long breath. The resentment and depression in her heart suddenly turned into heroic spirit. She thought to herself, "It's time for the Lai family to fall." Then she stood out and faced a few people. The leading steward waved his hand and shouted: "Let's go!"
At that moment, Mr. Qiang led his servants No. 100 and poured out of the corner gate. Everyone on the road saw him and kept away from him. There was a good person who quietly stayed behind to observe carefully.
Jia Qiang's gloomy mood gradually subsided, and she felt that her heart was filled with pride. She ignored Lai Shangrong and walked inside, leading the man's hand.
Going back to the garden at the back, I saw that although the garden was not as good as the Grand View Garden, it was still very neat and spacious, with springs, rocks, trees, pavilions and pavilions, and there were also many shocking places.
The accountant said: "I'm afraid there are still some discrepancies. Now these won't be able to be accounted for even if the mansion is included."
Li Weijian said in surprise: "Plundering the Lai family? That's right. These rebellious slaves should have been punished long ago. You go and talk to your wife first, I will go over and take a look later."
But he said that there was nothing going on at the Yamen that day, and Li Weijian returned early. As soon as he arrived in front of his house, he saw Jia Qiang leading people carrying belongings from a distance.
Jia Qiang had many thoughts on her mind. Although she had no evidence, she firmly believed that the incident in Ning Mansion was closely related to Li Weijian. So he bravely bowed and saluted and said: "Uncle Jian, my nephew has been ordered by his wife to go to Lai's house to pick it up."
Seeing the high walls and deep courtyard, Jia Qiang felt even more annoyed. He, the upright great-great-grandson of the Ning Mansion, lived in a small courtyard, but a servant like Lai Lai lived in a large house with a garden in the back. How could this be so embarrassing?
Zheng Hua suddenly became excited and hurriedly gave orders. He came along, waiting for Jia Qiang's words. Isn't the reason why the noble slave of the Jia family, No. 100, has such high morale is that he is holding his hands up and down when he is waiting to pick something up?
Jia Qiang narrowed her eyes and scanned the area. Zheng Hua, Mrs. Wang's roommate, came over and said, "Second Master Qiang, this person is Lai Shangrong, Grandma Lai's grandson. He is just a prison student now." After a pause, he added, "That's all. It’s not easy to deal with people who lose their citizenship early on.”
Baochai didn't stop and went straight to the south. The two of them met in front of Zhujin Pavilion.
Zheng Hua, who was following him, said: "What else can I do? He must have stolen the master's belongings privately."
Jia Qiang just wanted to feel happy and ransacked the Lai family, so how could she care whether the accounts were paid correctly or not? Because of this, he said casually: "I sent out my men to look around, and I can't say there is any place like a secret room or a secret room where the property is hidden."
Servants had already reported to the inner house, and several women had sealed the Yimen. No matter how hard the Jia family's slaves came, they would not open it.
Li Weijian entered the inner courtyard, changed into regular clothes, turned around and entered the Grand View Garden from Huifang Garden. After passing the Qingtang thatched cottage, we arrived at the Qinfang Gate Bridge. We could hear the sound of falling water coming from the north in the distance. Li Weijian stopped and turned around to observe, and saw two people standing in the Ao Jingxi Pavilion opposite, but it was Sister Bao and her maid Ying'er.
That disciple came forward to ask tremblingly, but before he could say anything, Jia Qiang kicked him to the ground, and then waved his hand: "Hit me in!"
Li Weijian nodded, raised his hand to invite, and the two of them went to Qinfang Pavilion. Li Weijian said: "I just came back and saw Brother Qiang leading the men back in a fierce manner. After asking, I found out that they were raiding Lai's house. Sure enough, the wife must be in charge. When the second sister-in-law is in charge, we don't dare to make such a fuss."
For a time, the Lai family's house was filled with cries and roars. Although Jia Qiang had never seen it, she could tell it was bad when she heard the noise. This person had a smooth nature, so how could he be willing to bear such a reputation?
The Lai family was not far from Rongguo Mansion, and Jia Qiang led the people there soon after.
Zheng Hua was even more happy, and he cupped his hands and said, "Second Master, don't worry, with Xiao Xiao watching over you, there will be no life-threatening lawsuit."
A group of powerful slaves shouted in agreement, brandished sticks and rushed in from the corner door. They beat anyone they met in person. In just a moment, when Jia Qiang stepped into the corner door, he looked up and saw seven or eight slaves lying groaning. House servant.
Baochai heard the words and said: "Fourth brother Jian is strict in his actions, and I expect the same is true in the family tradition. And sister Fu has always been considerate, and she will not allow that gossip to stay at home for too long."
Baochai on the other side caught a glimpse of Li Weijian and hurriedly bowed down. Li Weijian smiled and nodded slightly. After thinking about it for a while, he turned around after getting off the bridge and rushed towards the Aojingxi Pavilion.
In the blink of an eye, this man's eyebrows were lowered and he no longer had the air of a arrogant husband.
Li Weijian was not in a hurry to enter the house, and stood beside the carriage. When Jia Qiang came closer, he smiled and asked, "Where did Brother Qiang get rich?"
Zheng Hua promised, and when he waved, two boys rushed forward. One raised his foot and kicked Lai Shangrong to the ground. The other pressed down half of Lai Shangrong's body, and slapped him from left to right, beating him into a pig's head. .
Now Jia Qiang walked around for a while, and when she returned to the main room, the accounting clerk of the Xue family who was accompanying her came to report: "Second Master Qiang, we have made a clear count in the warehouse. There are 10,000 pieces of gold, silver and banknotes, and there are 10,000 pieces of shops in the outer city." Three, eight hundred acres of farmland outside the city."
Now that they received Jia Qiang's orders, everyone was very excited. Some of them smashed the house, some threatened the servants in the house, and even worse, they even forced the beautiful maid to do the dirty work.
Jia Qiang felt like she was being pardoned, bowed her hands again, and hurriedly led the people away.
Jia Qiang was stunned and said, "If the Lai family is not destroyed, it is unforgivable for heaven to tolerate it!"
Jia Qiang became frightened when she saw Li Weijian. Earlier, when Jia Rong provoked Li Weijian, he got a good beating; later, when Lai Shangwen stole the drawings, the Ning Mansion was uprooted.
Jia Qiang felt evil in her heart and sneered: "A slave is a slave, so what if he loses his citizenship? This guy looks like he has forgotten his roots. Let him have a long memory!"
Seeing that the accountant was about to speak but hesitated, Jia Qiang said, "But it's inappropriate?"
After saying this, Jia Qiang was too lazy to take care of it. She immediately found a dozen reluctant boys, carried the belongings, and returned to Rongguo Mansion with several Xue family accountants.
Sister Bao said calmly: "Brother Jian has not been here for some time."
After entering the inner house and briefly scanning the furnishings in the main room, Jia Qiang suddenly felt angry. Stepping forward to a painting, Jia Qiang said, "Isn't this picture of plum blossoms and banana leaves from Ning's house? How did it end up in his home?"
"Okay, okay!" Jia Qiang laughed angrily.
It's pity that he, a decent great-great-grandson of the Ning Mansion, is still living in a small courtyard in the back street, but this servant Yangzi is dressed in a beautiful house. Where can he go to reason?
Li Weijian smiled and said: "We have just taken care of family and state affairs today. After hearing that Sister Xue was slandered by rumors a few days ago, Qiu Fang and Bao Qin were very angry. They searched the house carefully. Although they did not take away the talkative one, they also Kicked out the two women who had unclean hands and feet."
He immediately called Zheng Hua and said: "My wife is still waiting. I have to go and talk to my wife. I will leave this place under your care for the time being... Don't let the people below make too much trouble."
Without Jia Qiang's orders, slaves had already trampled people over the wall. They were so frightened that the maids and women inside screamed and ran away. In an instant, the ceremony door was opened, and Jia Qiang immediately led a group of wealthy slaves and rushed in.
Suddenly, a white-faced man of about thirty years old came out tremblingly, pointed his finger from a distance and shouted: "The blue sky breaks down the door of the house in broad daylight, aren't you afraid of the king's law?"
Baochai just said: "I didn't hear much about my aunt's idea before. Is fourth brother Jian here just for this?"
Li Weijian said: "I haven't seen the old lady for some time. I'm afraid that if I delay a few days, I will be complained by the old lady." After a pause, Li Weijian said again: "It has been frosty morning and night these past few days. Why is my sister doing this? Come to visit the garden?”
Before Sister Bao could speak, Ying'er behind her said, "The girl was a little bored, so she came out for a walk. She didn't want to see Second Master Bao going to Guancui Temple. Fourth Master just came here, have you seen Second Master Bao?" "
"That's not true," Li Weijian said happily: "Baoyu can enter the garden again? Then he can't go to the academy?"
Sister Bao glanced at Ying'er sideways, and Ying'er immediately hesitated and did not dare to speak. Then Baochai said: "How can I stop Brother Bao from coming in in my own house? It's just that my aunt has set a rule and doesn't allow Brother Bao to play around with the sisters." ”
Li Weijian doesn't care about Baoyu or the Jia family now. I just secretly thought that since Sister Lin fell in love with me and Xiangyun engaged Xiao, the two women naturally distanced themselves from Baoyu. I don’t know when Baoyu met Miaoyu’s eyes...
It was expected that Sister Yibao's intelligence could be clearly seen at this moment. Could it be that Miaoyu has been regarded as the number one opponent at this time?
Li Weijian, who is accustomed to taking eye drops, said: "It's just a matter of going to the garden, but you still have to go to the academy. Even if you don't succeed in your studies, you can at least make more friends, which may be of great use in the future. Brother Bao wants to Rich and idle people, you must know that it is not easy to be a rich and idle person. If there are no relatives and friends to protect you, and there are no wise women to take care of the common affairs, how can you be idle?
I'm afraid I've been bored to death by those trivial things. "
If it were normal, Baochai would probably take it seriously. Now that I have experienced many disturbances, and my reputation was almost ruined the previous time, my mood is naturally different from before.
Therefore, after hearing this, Sister Bao not only did not agree with it, but she felt rebellious in her heart. So she glanced sideways and said, "Fourth Brother Jian must tell my aunt what I have to say, so what's the use of telling it to me?"
Li Weijian smiled and said nothing, as some words would be bad if exposed.
Sister Bao knew it, so she didn't mention Baoyu anymore and instead said, "How are you doing, girl Qin these days?"
Li Weijian walked up and down, nodded and said: "Sister Qin is smart, and she can handle the external accounts in just a few days. Qiu Fang said, I'm afraid I can hand it over to Sister Qin to take care of it by next month."
Sister Bao suddenly felt sour in her heart, because she said: "It is always wrong for a girl to show her face... Besides, she is still young. Brother Jian, it is better to keep the girl at home, read books and write poems. When you have free time, go to this garden to get together with the sisters."
Li Weijian smiled and said: "Just follow her. Sister Xue also knows that my family is not prosperous. I have to worry about Qiu Fang and Bao Qin taking care of the external affairs."
Sister Bao's heart became more and more sour, and she forced a smile and said: "It's Girl Qin's blessing that Fourth Brother Jian is so protective."
But Li Weijian smiled and said, "It's my blessing to go in both directions."
Baochai was about to say more when he arrived at the gate of the Grand View Garden. Li Weijian said, "I'm going to see the old lady to say hello. Where is Sister Xue going?"
Baochai secretly thought that her aunt, Mrs. Wang, had just raided Lai's house. Although she had the old lady's acquiescence before, she couldn't say that Rongqing Hall was now a dragon's den, so why would she bother herself? Because he raised his finger and pointed to the small door on the side, he said: "I'm going to find my mother and have a chat. Fourth brother Jian can do what he wants."
Li Weijian nodded, said goodbye to Baochai, and headed towards Rongqing Hall.
However, it can be said that the situation in Rongqing Hall is tense. Mrs. Wang had just reported it to Jia Mu, but Jia Mu couldn't bear it, so she said to Mrs. Wang: "After all, you have served our family for how many lifetimes. No matter what, you must leave some dignity."
Just as Mrs. Wang was about to reply, Yuanyang hurriedly replied: "Old lady, the eldest lady is here pushing the eldest man!"
"what?"
Jia Mu was shocked! Since Jia She suffered a second stroke and became paralyzed, Jia's mother only visited him two or three times, and the rest of her life was out of sight. I thought that the next time we met, I would ask the white-haired person to send the black-haired person away, but unexpectedly it happened now!
After a moment, Mrs. Xing was seen pushing Jia She in a wheelchair around the screen.
Mother Jia has a bright eye and a bright heart. She still doesn't know why these two people are here. He frowned and said, "Why are you still here? I'm not feeling well and I'm just resting at home. I've already told you that you don't need to come to say hello."
Jia She opened her mouth and murmured a bird song. When she heard Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang look at each other, Mrs. Gotta get started.”
Jia She vomited for a while, but even his saliva flowed out. The woman beside him quickly wiped it with a handkerchief. Mrs. Is there any Lian'er? Unfortunately, Brother Cong is getting older and can take charge of the affairs now, so it's not Brother Qiang's turn, right?"
Mrs. Wang frowned when she heard these words. Jia She collapsed on the bed. Jia Lian had disappeared early in the morning. As for Jia Cong...it was smaller than Baoyu, so where could it be used?
Cursing in her heart, Mrs. Wang opened her mouth and said: "I looked for Lian'er earlier, but he left the house early in the morning. This happened in a hurry. I was afraid that the Lai family would get the information and then send the property out, so I sent Qiang away. Brother, go and supervise the matter." When the elder heard this, he murmured that he would get up again, but before Jia She could finish speaking, Yuanyang came back and said, "Old lady, Grandma Lai is kneeling outside the Chuihua Gate to ask for an audience."
"this--"
Before Jia Mu could explain the truth in deep thought, another mother-in-law came to report: "Old lady, madam, Brother Qiang, who was on errands, came back with his people, and all the goods were handed over to Manager Wu for storage."
Mrs. Wang's heart suddenly pounded, and she hurriedly said to Jia Mu: "Old lady, I think we should let Brother Qiang answer first?"
Mrs.
Mother Jia despised Mrs.
As soon as Jia Mu gave the order, a maid led Jia Qiang inside. Jia Qiang turned around the screen, saluted everyone one by one, and then said: "I'm lucky to have lived up to my command. I picked up a total of eleven thousand and eighty taels of gold, silver, and silver notes, as well as various scrolls and antiques." It is estimated that the property is worth at least five thousand taels. In addition, the house is worth at least ten thousand."
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang felt slightly relieved. She never expected to let the Lai family vomit out all the money they had embezzled over the years. It was a blessing to have such a lot of wealth. However, there was still a little less, and the total amount was not enough to repay the Xue family's debt.
Fortunately, Baochai was forcibly left behind last time. Otherwise, how would he be able to repay the debt owed to the Xue family now?
Sitting on the soft couch, Jia's mother had mixed feelings in her heart. She made some calculations and realized that she had thirty thousand taels of silver in her head. In the early years when the Jia family was at its peak, the number of gifts received during every New Year's Eve was no less than this amount.
It was also because the family was unable to make ends meet that they decided to become slaves for such a small amount of money. Anyway, this time it is more or less reasonable, but the Lai family's behavior is too perverse and wrong. When word spreads, relatives, friends and old friends may not know how to criticize the Jia family behind their backs.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the eldest master, Jia She, chattering excitedly, and his mouth was drooling, which was extremely embarrassing.
Mrs. A slave is hiding!"
As soon as these words came out, not only Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang, but also all the maids and mothers-in-law looked at Jia She and Mrs. Xing with contempt.
Jia Mu didn't say much, she just turned to look at Mrs. Wang and said, "What do you think, Mrs. Wang?"
Mrs. Wang then said: "I think we should be merciful and merciful. Now that we have been picked up, no matter how much we have picked up, we can't be harshly punished. Otherwise, if word spreads, there will be people who accuse our family of being harsh. elder."
Mother Jia nodded and said: "What Madam said is right. No matter what, the Lai family has served our family for generations. There is hard work without credit. It is a big mistake. I really can't bear to be so harshly criticized." While speaking, he looked again. Xiang Mrs. Xing: "The Jia family's face is worth more than those silver coins. Madam, please don't lose the watermelon and pick up the sesame seeds."
Mrs.
Then Jia Mu said in a cold voice: "You weren't the one instigating me behind my back. I'm sick, so why would you come to me and care about such things?"
Mrs. Xing's eyes suddenly turned red when she was scolded, and she had no choice but to nod and say nothing.
At this time, Yuanyang came in and replied, "Old lady, Fourth Master Jian is here."
Jia Mu said in confusion: "Brother Jian hasn't been here for some days. Why is he here now?"
Mrs. Wang then said: "There is a lot of commotion at home. I think Brother Jian also heard about it and came over just now to take a look."
Jia Mu nodded, and after a moment, she saw Li Weijian turning around the screen with his head held high, greeting Jia Mu and others with a smile, and looking at the old man in the wheelchair with curiosity. Huh? The wheelchair seemed to have been given to Wang Xifeng by himself before, but he didn't want it to be used by Jia She again.
Thinking in his mind, Li Weijian said: "Why did you alert Uncle Shi?"
Jia She, who had crooked eyes and slobbering eyes, saw Li Weijian and suddenly became excited. He started talking loudly, but Li Weijian didn't hear clearly even if he got closer.
At this time, I heard Mrs.
What to discuss? I'm afraid we have to discuss the matter of welcoming the Spring Festival again. Li Weijian's face remained unchanged, he cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll go to the east courtyard in a while."
Yuanyang moved a chair and Li Weijian sat down and said, "I just bumped into Brother Qiang and heard that the Lai family's corruption was discovered in the house. Then I ordered Brother Qiang to go over and pick it up? I don't know what happened to the search?"
Jia Mu sighed and said, "I only have more than ten thousand yuan in floating wealth. Counting shops, houses and fields, I can only have more than thirty thousand yuan."
Li Weijian pretended to be stunned, and then said in surprise: "This is interesting."
Jia Mu hurriedly asked: "What's interesting? Brother Jian might as well explain it clearly."
Li Weijian smiled and said, "I happened to bump into Mr. Qiao from the Imperial Household this morning. While chatting, I mentioned that Grandma Lai asked someone to take the lead. This time she raised the price again and was actually willing to pay 30,000 cash for Lai Shangrong. An errand for the head of the palace."
Jia Mu was startled, and Mrs. Wang on the side frowned and asked: "Brother Jian, are you afraid that your servant has failed? The doctor in the inner palace is only the sixth grade, how can he be worth so much money?"
Li Weijian said: "I don't know, Madam, but the Lai family is not interested in an ordinary doctor. A few years ago, the junior went south to Guangzhou to establish the sugar business, and Brother Yun also obtained an official position."
Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu nodded together, and Jia Mu smiled and said: "Brother Yun came to my house once. I have seen it before. I don't want to have such a promising kid in my family. Brother Jian, you are getting more and more serious now." For the sake of it, the old lady doesn't ask for anything else. She just asks Brother Jian to look at it and give him more support if any of the children in the family need it. "
Li Weijian smiled and said: "The old lady has said it. Now I am short of manpower, and I have relatives, so I really need it, and the younger generation will definitely use it."
Jia's mother smiled and sighed. The implication was that the Jia family had very few children, and even Jia Yun was an anomaly.
Li Weijian then said: "Speaking of which, the sugar business in Guangzhou is getting more and more serious. Last month, a report was submitted to the prince's desk, saying that the income will be doubled this year, and the money passed by will be more than one million?"
"what?"
Jia Mu was surprised, and Mrs. Wang quickly asked: "Could it be——"
"That's right," before Mrs. Wang could ask, Li Weijian nodded and said, "The prince is planning to send a chief to Guangzhou to take charge, and the Lai family is targeting the chief of Guangzhou's sugar affairs. Not to mention 30,000 yuan. , there are many officials waiting outside who are shouting out fifty thousand taels of silver."
After a pause, he added: "Now that I think about it, since the Lai family dared to call out thirty thousand taels of cash, they must have prepared it early in the morning. Otherwise..."
At this time, the eldest man suddenly started chattering again, and Mrs. Xing hurriedly said: "The eldest man said that brother Jian was right. Otherwise, if Mr. Qiao really agreed, how could the Lai family have time to sell the business in such a hurry?" After a pause, he added: "The old lady feels sorry for the Lai family because of the generations of people who have served her. But she doesn't know that the Lai family is even richer than ours now."
At this time, I heard Jia Qiang say: "Yes, that Lai Shangrong has resigned from his nationality early. I'm afraid that all the property obtained through corruption will be placed in his name... This will not be easy to deal with."
At this time, Li Weijian said leisurely: "What's the difficulty? Lai Shangrong can't move, and the accountant, steward, maid, and servant around him can't move either? Even the body deeds of Lai Da and Aunt Lai are in the house. Those maids and servants who come here should all be under the control of the house."
The elder became excited again, spitting and spitting. Mrs. Xing also said happily: "The elder said Brother Jian was right!"
Mother Jia was embarrassed, and sighed: "That's all, I'll just deal with it as long as I see. It's just the same. After serving our family for many lifetimes, we must retain some dignity."
Mrs. Wang then said: "When the Qing Dynasty clears up the occupation, we can just send Aunt Lai and Da Lai's family to live in Zhuangzi, Liaodong."
Jia Mu agreed and told Yuanyang, "Yuanyang, go and tell Aunt Lai that I don't want to see her now and let her reflect on herself."
After Yuanyang agreed, Jia Mu said to Li Weijian: "Such things happened at home. Now I am very tired and nervous, so I won't entertain brother Jian anymore."
Li Weijian said hurriedly: "Old lady, just rest. I come here every now and then, so I can't be considered a guest."
At that moment, the maid helped Jia Mu to go to the Nuan Pavilion. Everyone in the Rongqing Hall got up one after another. Mrs. Wang seemed to be a lot more kind. She greeted Li Weijian with a smile, and then went out to deal with the affairs of the Lai family.
At that moment, Mrs. Xing came over and said with a smile: "Brother Jian——"
Li Weijian said: "Just in time, why don't I follow my aunt to the east courtyard?"
"Good good."
Mrs. The group of people passed through the hanging flower gate, but they no longer saw Aunt Lai who was kneeling down, crying and begging just now. They expected that Mrs. Wang must have dealt with it.
Li Weijian thought deeply, as the saying goes, if you kill a snake, you will have endless troubles. Because of Lai Shangwen's incident, all the two houses of the Lai family were sold out. The remaining people dared to be angry and dare not speak out. Every time Lai Da met Li Weijian, he was respectful and polite. Don't you have a desire for revenge?
Now that one word has eliminated the possibility of revenge for the Lai family, and they have sold Hao'er everywhere, why not do it?
After passing through the hall, Li Weijian was going to go outside the Yimen. The east courtyard where Jia She was was originally a self-contained area. Although it was within the Rongguo Mansion, one had to go through the black oil gate in front of it to enter or exit. But this time, Mrs. Xing and others pushed Jia She towards the west hall.
Seeing the confusion on Li Weijian's face, Mrs.
Li Weijian said: "That's it."
After passing the hall and walking south for a while, I saw a corner door opened in the wall of the courtyard. Before entering the corner gate, Jia She whimpered again, and Mrs. Xing called her mother-in-law and said, "Go ahead and keep watch. When Lian'er comes back, ask him to come over quickly."
Loot the Lai family, a great opportunity to make a fortune is in front of you, but the useless Jia Lian goes out to hang out again. Now that most of it has been swallowed by the second wife, Mrs. Xing and Jia She are just looking forward to swallowing some soup and water.
Li Weijian knew why these two people were anxious, so he didn't explain it at the moment and just followed Mrs. Xing and others into the main room.
When the tea was served, the elder Jia She murmured something, and Mrs. I’m eighteen, I’m afraid it won’t be a problem if I delay it any longer.”
Li Weijian frowned and said, "Auntie, you might as well tell me what you mean."
Mrs.
Li Weijian's face turned cold and he said, "My aunt and my uncle have the final say on matters of marriage, the orders of my parents, the words of the matchmaker, so why bother asking me?"
Mrs. Doesn’t Li Jijiu agree? "
Li Weijian said with a half-smile but not a smile: "I understand, I guess Uncle Shi has found a suitable family long ago? But I don't know which family or household it is?"
"This -" Mrs. Xing quickly looked at Jia She, who spoke again with her mouth and eyes crooked. Mrs.
Before Mrs. Xing could finish speaking, Li Weijian sneered and said: "Sun Shaozu? I understand." As he spoke, he stood up and said condescendingly: "Since uncle Shi and aunt can't wait, it is reasonable to find a husband's family for the second sister, but that surname is It's hard to say whether Sun will marry the second sister. "Goodbye!"
After saying that, he snorted coldly, stood up and walked away.
Mrs. Xing chased after him for two steps and hurriedly sent her maid to see him off. She turned around and discussed with Jia She in a panic: "I said this matter cannot be urgent. Now that Brother Jian has been offended, what should we do?"
But after hearing what Jia She said in a nonchalant manner, Mrs. What about two? "
Jia She's crooked face showed a strange smile, and he mumbled again. Mrs. Xing's brows relaxed, and she felt slightly relieved.
So what about duplicity? Why is it so important to have free money?
