I'm in the Red Mansion

Chapter 121 Leaving the House
Report to the official?

Jia Cong sneered, then took out the jade token given by Prime Minister Kou, poked it directly in front of Jia Zhen and said:
"This is the jade token that Prime Minister Kou gave me. Are you sure you want to report it to the police?"

When Jia Zhen saw the word "Kou" on the jade token, his pupils shrank slightly.

He couldn't help but shouted: "Come back!"

"Yes, sir!"

The servant who was originally running to report to the police stopped after hearing Jia Zhen's order.

At this moment, Jia She struggled to get up from the ground and angrily said, "Brother Zhen, why don't you go and report to the police?"

"This little beast is lawless and injured my servants in Rongguo Mansion. I must report him to the authorities and have him arrested and sentenced to exile three thousand miles away."

Jia Cong suddenly took two steps to Jia She and asked coldly, "Who do you want to arrest?"

The heroic scene of Jia Cong brutally defeating a dozen servants was still vivid in Jia She's mind, and he was so frightened that he took two steps back.

He asked in horror: "What do you want to do?"

At this time, Jia Zhen said to Jia She, "Uncle, he has Prime Minister Kou's jade token in his hand. Even if we report it to the authorities, I'm afraid they won't be able to arrest him. Besides, family disgrace should not be made public."

Jia She said angrily: "This little beast is so arrogant and domineering, can we let him go so easily?"

Jia Zhen asked in return: "In your opinion, how should we deal with it?"

"this!"

Although Jia She was furious, he could not think of a better solution.

Beating him is impossible, reporting to the authorities is useless, and this little beast even threatens to use the Jia family's identity to impeach Prince Yi Zhong again, a fight to the death.

For a moment, Jia She lost his temper.

Seeing Jia She's helpless and furious look, Jia Zhen secretly despised him.

He couldn't help but say, "Someone, go get Aunt Mei and the two girls' indentures!"

Jia Cong said again: "Oh, there is another one named Cai'er, bring her indenture here as well."

Cai'er is Aunt Mei's personal maid, and this time, she will be taken away as well.

Jia Zhen took a deep breath and said, "Okay, bring Cai Er's indenture as well."

Jia She could not help but said angrily: "Absolutely not!"

Jia Zhen turned his head and looked at him.

Jia She took a few deep breaths, then said dejectedly, "Forget it, bring them all here!"

There was an even more hint of contempt on Jia Zhen's face.

After a while, the indentures of the four people were taken out and handed over to Jia Cong.

Jia Cong took it and examined it carefully. Finding nothing fishy, ​​he carefully put it away.

At this time, Jia Zhen said, "Brother Cong, now according to your request, I will give you the indentures of the four people."

"After you leave, don't do anything in the name of the Jia family anymore."

Jia Zhen was really afraid that Jia Cong would impeach Prince Yi Zhong in the name of the Jia family.

Jia Cong said calmly: "Of course. Do you think I value the name of the Jia family so much?"

"From now on, I am me and the Jia family is the Jia family. You go your way and I go mine. Goodbye!"

After saying this, Jia Cong took the two maids, Qingwen and Hongxiu, carried the packages that had been packed long ago, and went to Aunt Mei's courtyard.

Aunt Mei was extremely surprised to hear that the Jia family let her go and even gave her and Cai'er's indentures.

They had actually already packed their bags, and after putting them on their backs, they followed Jia Cong out of the mansion.

After leaving the Jia Mansion, Aunt Mei suddenly felt as if she had broken free from shackles, and her whole body felt relaxed.

During all these years that she had been in the Jia Mansion, apart from the company of Cong'er, had she ever had a moment of joy?
To her, the Jia Mansion was nothing more than a prison.

Now that they were finally free from this prison, Aunt Mei couldn't help but ask, "Brother Cong, have you found a place to stay?"

"I still have several hundred taels of silver you gave me. Take it first and rent a small courtyard to live in."

"It doesn't have to be too big, as long as it can accommodate us and doesn't interfere with your studies."

"If you really don't have enough money, you can go and stay with your grandfather."

All the time Jia Cong was growing up, Aunt Mei had never mentioned anything about his grandfather to him.

Of course, since Aunt Mei was a concubine, her father could not be considered Jia Cong’s grandfather in name.

Take Jia Huan for example, his biological uncle is Zhao Guoji, but Zhao Guoji is just a servant in the Jia family.

He is just Jia Huan's coachman, and Jia Huan's nominal uncle is Wang Ziteng.

Perhaps it was also because Aunt Mei was forced to be a concubine by Jia She, and the two families had never had any contact.

Now that they have left the Jia Mansion, they can move around.

Jia Cong had not prepared a place to stay in advance. The main reason was that his plan to leave the Jia Mansion was a coincidence and he happened to encounter this opportunity, so it was inevitably implemented hastily.

There was no time left for him to prepare a place to stay.

However, he had plenty of money, so it would be better for him to buy a house for himself.

Thinking of this, Jia Cong couldn't help but say to Aunt Mei: "Mother, let's find an inn to settle down first, and then I will start buying a house."

"Mother, just take the several hundred taels of silver you have. Your son is still doing business now, so he has no shortage of silver."

Aunt Mei was about to speak when she saw a carriage stop behind them.

Xue Pan jumped down from the carriage and shouted, "Brother Cong, don't go, this way, this way!"

As he spoke, Xue Pan strode over.

Walking in front of everyone, Xue Pan first bowed respectfully to Aunt Mei and said, "Nephew pays respects to aunt."

Aunt Mei supported him and said, "Mr. Xue, there is no need to be so polite..."

Xue Pan laughed and said, "Aunt, Brother Cong and I are half-brothers. In front of you, I am your son."

"It's unbecoming of you to call me Master Xue. From now on, just call me Pan'er. I really treat you as my mother."

Aunt Mei had heard about Xue Pan's deeds from Jia Cong, and also knew how he saved Xue Pan.

The reason why Congge was removed from the Jia family's family tree was because of this incident.

Now that I have met Xue Pan, it is exactly as Cong Ge'er said.

Although he is a bit of a mixed person, he is also a man of character.

Therefore, Aunt Mei readily said, "Okay, okay, I will call you Pan'er from now on."

Xue Pan laughed and said, "That's right."

He turned to look at Jia Cong and said, "Brother Cong, I just heard about your story as well."

"Those idiots in the Jia Mansion are really bastards. What they do is inhumane!"

“I rushed out when I heard the news.”

"Brother Cong, you are not kind. You didn't even come to me after such a big incident. Do you still treat me as your own brother?"

"Come on, let's get in the car and talk first! I guess you haven't found a place to stay yet, and it just so happens that my family has a few idle courtyards in the capital."

"We have already cleaned up a building, which is perfect for you, Brother Cong, to stay in."

"I have brought the title deed here. Brother Cong just needs to go to the government office to transfer the title, and the yard will be yours."

After hearing this, Jia Cong couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Brother Xue, in the capital, a courtyard is probably worth a million dollars."

"This gift is too valuable. I dare not accept it."
