Brother Rong of Red Mansion

Chapter 125 Remember, I am the patriarch

Jia Mu gave in.

In an instant, all the men in the hall, including their wives and girls, all had expressions of surprise and incredible expressions.

As for Mrs. Wang, she stood frozen on the spot, her expression frozen, and she almost lost her ability to think.

Is that Mother Jia, the ancestor of Ningrong Jia's family, so bullied by a junior that she loses her temper? This is incredible!

"Old ancestor, please rest while I go outside for a walk." Jia Rong smiled, without any anger on his face. Instead, he looked at Jia Zheng and said, "Second Master, you have been bored in the house for so long, why don't you go?"

Jia Zheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded thoughtfully, "Okay."

After that, he comforted Jia's mother and followed Jia Rong out of the flower hall and walked into the yard.

"boom--"

Jia Rong and Jia Zheng hadn't gone far yet. As soon as they walked out of the flower hall, they heard a bang in the flower hall, the sound of a vase being smashed, followed by Jia Mu's scolding.

"You heartless vixen! You have corrupted all the good men!" Jia Mu scolded people in the flower hall.

Soon, Youshi and Qin Keqing came to apologize, but the curses in the flower hall continued. It seemed that all the accumulated anger of Jia Mu, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang and others were concentrated on You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Jia Zheng's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but look at Jia Rong. He saw that Jia Rong was very calm, and he couldn't help but be surprised, "Brother Rong, why are you not in a hurry at all?"

"Today I have offended my ancestors, the eldest wife, and the second wife. I am destined to lose my temper." Jia Rong's tone was calm, as if he had expected it.

"I just hope the second master doesn't mind." Jia Rong turned around and said seriously to Jia Zheng, "Second Uncle Bao was raised by our ancestors. I don't know how many people are secretly jealous. I've heard a lot of rumors outside. . They all said that Uncle Bao secretly ate the rouge on the girl's mouth and "men are made of mud, women are made of water" and other nonsense. They also said that the ancestors raised Uncle Bao as a young lady. In short, it doesn't make sense. Very good. For the sake of the reputation of Rongfu and for the advancement of Uncle Bao, he must be allowed to show his face in the clan school. Otherwise, the reputation of Second Uncle Bao can be ruined just by the gossip outside. In the future, when he gets older, he will have to do something. But it’s inevitable to be sad. You know, the prejudices in people’s hearts are like a mountain of gravel. It’s easy to gather them, but it’s hard to blow them away.”

Jia Zheng said with emotion, "Is this happening? I don't know anything about it."

To be honest, Jia Zheng has some opinions on Jia Rong. Just because Jia Rong just spoke, he was too harsh and mean, which made Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang very angry. It was completely unlike the way a junior should speak, which made him feel disgusted and his attitude towards Jia Rong was much worse.

Although, he had the idea of ​​​​using Jia Rong to offend Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang for him, rescue Jia Baoyu, and go to the clan school to study and improve.

But he still didn't like Jia Rong's attitude.

I never thought that Jia Rong's "tough stance" today was actually for Jia Baoyu's good.

"Brother Rong, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Jia Zheng clasped his hands and sighed. The barriers in his heart disappeared and he became enthusiastic again.

"The ancestors and the second wife regard Uncle Bao as their lifeblood. How can they listen to their idle words?" Jia Rong said sincerely,

"Only if I act as the villain and the second master pretends to be the good guy, can they be persuaded. Later, when we leave. The second master will persuade and reason, and the ancestor will be willing to let go.

"Sooner or later, we're going to have to make a fuss. It's better to make a fuss sooner rather than later. It would be better for everyone if we talk about it."

Jia Rong shook his head and sighed.

"Otherwise, with Uncle Bao's current temperament, how can he correct his attitude when he goes to a clan school and accepts such harsh teaching methods? I'm afraid he will give up on the first day and never go again.

“As soon as the ancestors and the second wife softened their hearts, they returned to normal.

"So, only by cutting off his escape route and letting Uncle Bao know that the ancestors and the second wife can't protect him will he grow up and become strong on his own."

After hearing this, Jia Zheng couldn't help but nodded repeatedly and said with emotion, "Brother Rong really knows how to educate the children. With you in charge of the family education, the adults can sleep peacefully." "The second master's help is indispensable." Jia Zheng Rong smiled and said, "I don't have the second master as my political ally. I can't withstand the pressure of my ancestors on my own."

"Haha." Jia Zheng laughed loudly, patted Jia Rong on the shoulder, looked at the brilliant fireworks in the night sky, and murmured in his heart, "Why am I not the same?"

That night, Jia Zheng looked up at the bright fireworks in the night and felt much more relaxed.

******

The Lantern Festival finally comes to an end.

It was just dinner. At three o'clock in the morning, Jia Rong and others set up their carriages and returned to Ningguo Mansion from Ningrong Street. The spacious street is bustling with pedestrians. Tonight is the Lantern Festival, and the curfew has been lifted for the first time in a long time. People can go to the streets to put out lanterns.

"I have wronged my wife and madam tonight."

Everyone returned to Ning'an Hall and sat for a short while. Jia Rong comforted You and Qin Keqing with a warm voice.

"It's not a problem." Youshi and Qin Keqing shook their heads and smiled, but asked in confusion, "Why does Brother Rong insist on letting Baoyu go to the clan to study?"

Yes.

All the female relatives of the Ningguo Mansion had puzzled expressions. They didn't know why Jia Rong insisted on letting Jia Baoyu go to the clan school, and even did not hesitate to offend Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others for it.

Whether Jia Baoyu goes to school or not, what does it have to do with Ningguo Mansion?

"First of all, it was Baoyu who threw his lifeblood and annoyed me. The ancestor and the second wife also helped to accuse me. I am not convinced!"

Returning to Ning'an Hall, the female relatives sitting in the hall were all from their own family. Jia Rong spoke more boldly and began to speak the truth.

"Second, it is to compete for the right to speak."

Facing the doubtful looks of the girls, Jia Rong explained, "I have now inherited the title and sacrificed my ancestors. I am the legitimate head of the Ningguo Mansion and the current head of the Jia clan. But whether it is the Ning Rong Mansion or the people outside the manor, Tribesmen, there are always people who don’t take my words seriously because of their seniority. I have to tell them that I don’t respect them like a master. The trick of relying on the old and selling the old will not work here. I want to let them Forget my seniority and remember my identity as the patriarch!"

Speaking of this, Jia Rong's eyes were as sharp as an eagle, showing a majestic expression.

No matter Youshi, Qin Keqing, or even the girls in the flower hall, they were all shocked, unconsciously silent, and aroused in awe.

This is the authority of men!

Then there are stepmother, wife, relatives, once Jia Rong assumes the posture of "head of the family". No matter who it is, everyone must surrender.

"Brother Rong is a capable person." Youshi sighed again.

Jia Zhen is also the head of Ningguo Mansion and the chief of the Jia clan. But in front of Jia Mu, he didn't dare to breathe, as if he had forgotten his identity as the patriarch.

He himself has forgotten it, who can remember it?

But now, Jia Rong wants to awaken everyone's memory and firmly remember his identity as the patriarch.

no matter who!

As long as it's in the Jia clan, it's all under my control!

This is something Jia Rong wants to tell everyone clearly and clearly.
