Red Mansion: Bastards rule the roost

Chapter 79 Check Your Body

Jia Cong came out from Chen's house after dinner with 50,000 yuan in silver notes in his arms. As if in a dream, Jia Cong concluded the business in just a few words. The family was indeed different. Xue Pan was the mascot throughout the whole process without saying a word.

"Brother Xue, now you have to start preparing your manpower shop. When I build the factory, I will start production."

"Don't worry, I will arrange for the capable shopkeeper to handle this matter, and the banknote will be sent to you tomorrow." Xue Pan said.

Jia Cong nodded and returned home in silence.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw Qingwen lying on the bed fully clothed. She didn't move when she came in. Could it be that she was sick?

Jia Cong hurried over, touched her shoulders, and said softly: "What's wrong?"

Qingwen twisted her body and said nothing.

Jia Cong smiled and said, "You're such a monster. You're just trying to make a show of yourself, so you won't get me to deal with the truth." As he spoke, he scratched the soft ribs on her waist.

Qingwen couldn't bear to eat it, so she uttered an ouch, sat up and said angrily: "I bully people as soon as I come back. I'm so angry."

Jia Cong held her in his arms and said with a smile: "Tell me, who dares to offend my Qingwen baby? It seems that the women and girls outside don't dare to be so bold."

"Who is your darling? You are so shameless. Save this for Miss Bao." Qingwen spat, but she leaned obediently in Jia Cong's arms.

"In my heart, you are just like Miss Bao." Jia Cong said.

Qingwen felt sweet in her heart, her eyes were watery, her sullenness had long since disappeared, and she leaned softly in Jia Cong's arms, wishing she could just keep leaning like this.

"You haven't told me anything yet?"

Qingwen said softly: "It's not a big deal. Not long after you left today, Aunt Jiang came. When she saw the two plates of snacks you left for me on the table, she said that Master Cong's martial arts practitioners don't eat these. She said she would take it back to feed her grandson, so she took it away. I didn’t argue, thinking that she is your nanny and should be filial to her."

"Later, she asked you where you were, and I told you. She asked you when you would come back. I said it was impossible, but you didn't tell me, so how could I know.

She scolded me head-on, saying that I was a whore, a shameless vixen who had taught me bad things, seduced you into forgetting your wet nurse, and even told my wife to kick me out to accompany a boy. Wuwuwu..."

Qingwen couldn't help but cry as she spoke, filled with grievances that could only be released in Jia Cong's arms.

"Old pig and dog, don't know whether to live or die!" Jia Cong sneered.

"Master, please don't try to embarrass her. Now even the emperor respects the wet nurse, let alone ordinary people? If word spreads, my reputation will be ruined. What's the point of being wronged? Don't delay my future.

As long as I know what kind of person I am. " Qingwen hurriedly advised, looking at Jia Cong worriedly, fearing that he would chop down Nanny Jiang in anger, which would be troublesome.

Jia Cong suddenly laughed and said: "When did my Qingwen become so virtuous? She looks a bit like an attacker."

Qingwen said shyly: "I'm teasing you again. Is there anything virtuous about me as a servant? I'm just doing my duty as a maid."

"What else did she say?"

"She said she would come to see me after dinner. She probably came to bother me about the future of her two sons," Qingwen said.

"Huh, I don't look for her, but she comes to my door. Okay, if she wants a future, I'll give her a future." Jia Cong sneered.

"Master, you..." Qingwen was still a little worried.

Jia Cong smiled and said: "I have my own sense of propriety. Am I such a stupid person? Seeing that you are so good today, I am going to reward you." Qingwen lowered her head and said shyly: "I don't want your reward, as long as I have this in my heart." Humans are enough.”

"Not only do I have it in my heart, I also have it in my hand." Jia Cong put his hand into his arms.

"Ah, sir, why... don't... you are so embarrassed..." Qingwen quickly refused, pressing Jia Cong's claws and begging, "Sir, you promised not to bully others."

"Is this bullying? I'm checking your body. Yes, you are developing well."

"Master, no, let the girl see it." Qingwen blushed and struggled, looking like she would rather die than surrender.

"Which girl dares to come in? Don't move. Qingwen will just show mercy to Master Shi. In the past few years, I can only look at it but not eat it, but I'm going to be greedy to death."

When Qingwen heard what he said pitifully, her heart softened and she stopped struggling. She just wanted him to be arrogant once and never again.

Jia Cong was having fun when he suddenly heard a report from the girl outside the door that Grandma Jiang was here.

Qingwen's originally soft body hurriedly bounced up, quickly straightened her clothes, and gave Jia Cong an angry look.

Jia Cong smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? You are mine, not a thief."

"Bah, I also said that if Nanny Jiang sees it, won't it confirm my reputation as a fox girl?" Qingwen spat while tying her sweat scarf.

Jia Cong said: "What bullshit, Grandma Jiang. Look how I can deal with her." Do you think I am a loser like Jia Baoyu?
  "Please come in, Nanny Jiang."

A woman in her forties walked in and said loudly: "Now that I have succeeded, it will be even harder for me to see you than to go to heaven."

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Why did Grandma Jiang say this? Please sit down quickly and Qingwen will pour you some tea."

Aunt Jiang sat down and said: "Nowadays, there are several gentlemen in the mansion, not to mention Aunt Lai. The two sons are in charge of the two mansions, which is a powerful force. Let's talk about the Second Master Bao and the Second Master Lian. Auntie Li and Auntie Zhao also don’t know how much benefit they got from relying on this man.

I'm the only one who has no shame. I worked so hard to nurse my brother, but in the end I didn't even think about my happiness. I ended up being looked down upon by the girl who just came here. Brother, tell me, who am I trying to reason with? "As he spoke, he sobbed and cried.

Jia Cong was too lazy to look at her ugly appearance. When I was about to be beaten to death, where was this idiot? She smiled lightly and said, "Mom, did you come here to complain to me today, or is there something else?"

Seeing that he was impatient, Aunt Jiang hurriedly said: "It's a small thing. Now that my brother is so prosperous, even the emperor in the ninth heaven loves the third master very much. He regards me as the Zhao Zilong of this dynasty. I'm thinking of you. The two nanny brothers are still at home and have no food and clothing. Please bring them with me and give them a bowl of rice? It won't be in vain for the nanny brothers."

Jia Cong smiled and said: "It's just that Cong was negligent. He should have come to invite him in person, but he forgot to do so. Now that I am short of personal soldiers, I will let my two nannies come. According to the rules, my personal soldiers are The monthly salary is 2 taels of silver, how about I give them 5 taels?" This is more than double the monthly salary of the young master and young lady.

Aunt Jiang was overjoyed and thanked her repeatedly, her old face turning into chrysanthemums.

"Let them go find my boy Wangcai tomorrow. I'll say hello later."

"Okay, okay, brother, I still value friendship. I will go back and tell them that they must work hard, otherwise God will not forgive them." Aunt Jiang left with a lot of thanks.

"Master, do you really want them to be your personal soldiers?" Qingwen asked doubtfully.

"Hmph, it's not that cheap. Call me Wangcai. I have some instructions."

After a while, Wangcai came and bowed to listen.

Jia Cong gave him some instructions and let him go, "Mother Jiang, if I can't deal with you, why can't I deal with your son?" snort.
