34. Interrogation of Zhou Rui

Coming out of Jia Daishan's study, Jia Hu exhaled and ordered Hegui to find the personal servant who was serving his grandfather.

My grandfather was in poor health in the autumn of last year, and by September this year, a charcoal pot had been placed in the house. The temperature inside was too high for him to stand it.

I thought that when my grandfather came in, there was still moisture in the ends of his hair, which was cold and hot......

Jia Hu darkened his face and asked, "How is the old lady doing lately?" ”

The little guy was newly promoted, and he used to be an errand boy in Lixiangyuan, and he knew that this uncle was not a good-tempered person, so he replied tremblingly: "Back to the uncle, the old lady has often not been able to sleep at night since the beginning of summer, and she gets up later in the morning." Yesterday, I drank a little wine, was in a good mood, fell asleep early, and today on a whim, I punched for a long time. ”

Jia Hu asked with some dissatisfaction: "Why is the old lady's hair still wet, so she came out like this?" Why don't you remind? ”

The little guy shouted: "Uncle is wronged, where haven't you reminded him?" As soon as the old lady heard that you were coming, she immediately couldn't sit still, and she was still a little bit of a good person, and her hair was almost dry, so she went out. ”

Recalling that his grandfather's hair was indeed undried at the ends, Jia Hu's expression eased and said, "Next time, if grandfather is busy, you don't have to report to him that I am here." ”

After the little guy had a bitter face, Jia Hu knocked a few words lightly and lightly before leaving.

Several criminal mothers-in-law in Lanfangyuan were indeed taken away, Jia Yuyuan was a little dissatisfied, and when he learned that Lai Da was also taken away, Fang was overjoyed.

"It's okay now, my father will make a move, and no matter what kind of bull god or horse ghost he is, he won't want to escape."

He ordered someone to bring Zhou Rui over, and he went in with Jia Hu to see Liu.

Jia Hu was more concerned about his unborn brothers and sisters, and asked diligently, "Mother, what's wrong?" Is it good to eat in the morning? ”

Liu didn't have to wait for the stewards to reply in the morning, after greeting the old lady, he talked to Jia Ying in the warm pavilion, Jia Ying saw that her brother had been asking her mother, she couldn't help pouting, and said in a milky voice: "Brother, you don't ask me!" ”

Jia Hu laughed all of a sudden, leaned in front of her, opened his hands, and Jia Ying immediately jumped into his arms.

Seeing this, Liu couldn't cry or laugh, and said angrily: "You kid, how old are you and still on your brother." Don't hurry down yet! ”

Jia Ying twisted her body and was unwilling.

Jia Ying is five years old, and Jia Hu is still a little difficult to hold, so he hurriedly coaxed her: "Ying'er, don't move, wait for my brother to hold you." ”

Jia Yulang smiled: "Ying'er is like you, the two brothers and sisters are little gluttonies." ”

Jia Hu's old face turned red, and Jia Ying waved his fleshy arm and said angrily: "I'm not a little glutton!" ”

She already knew it wasn't a good thing to say.

"Okay, okay, Ying'er is not, just your brother is." Jia Yu hugged Jia Ying over, and Jia Ying let out a happy scream. Jia Yu often hugged her like this, and from time to time she flew high, Jia Ying was really happy to see him.

Liu Shi smiled and looked at the big and small playing, and then said softly: "Hu'er don't worry, this baby is much more well-behaved than Huaiying when she was a child." If I wasn't too tired, and your father hired a doctor, I really wouldn't have known that I was pregnant with a child. ”

Jia Hu nodded and taught Liu to play the puzzle that he had nothing to do.

After a while, the lotus pond picture on a moonlit night that gave Liu a little headache was put together.

Jia Ying smiled happily and made a fuss about coming down.

After playing for a while, I heard someone outside the door say that Zhou Rui had already brought it over, so Jia Hu went out with his father.

Jia Yu put down Jia Ying and instructed her: "Ying'er, my father and brother are going out to run errands, can you take care of your mother here?" ”

Jia Ying nodded sensibly and promised seriously: "I will let my brother be obedient!" ”

If my brother is disobedient and makes my mother feel bad, when he comes out, I will spank him!

With a sacred mission, Jia Ying clenched her little fists.

Liu hugged her tightly, and the two of them happily played nine rings again.

Zhou Rui was also in charge of shopping in the kitchen at this time, he was shiny, his shrewd eyes kept rolling, and at first glance, Jia Yu almost laughed. This shrewd and exposed appearance, where is there a little bit of the appearance of the second steward in the previous life?

Slowly putting aside the tea leaves floating on the surface of the tea cup, Jia Yu leaned on the chair, greeted Jia Hu, and said, "Hu'er, sit." Isn't it a great character, why do you put on this appearance like a great enemy? ”

Where am I the enemy? Am I angry? Jia Hu glared at Jia Yu faintly, and sat down as he said.

The two of them chatted about some family things, mainly because Jia Yu was in Bala, how good my Ying'er was, how close she was to me in the year you left, and although Jia Hu didn't show a smile during the whole process, it was obvious from his focused eyes that he listened with relish.

Zhou Rui, who was kneeling underneath, broke out in a cold sweat.

He's not a fool, why don't you know that this is the eldest master and Uncle Hu suing him, and Miss Ying is very valued by them?

When the daughter is not out of the cabinet, isn't it the favor of her father and brother at home? Looking at this posture, the big girl born in the second room on the first day of the Lunar New Year is incomparable. The eldest lord is unrelenting and vows to find the murderer.

But what can he do? The second wife married his confidant to him, can he still be disobedient?

He really didn't know how the two fathers and sons of Dafang were suspicious of him among the many large and small stewards who were involved.

But the things on the rockery were put down by him with his own hands, even if he confessed, he couldn't atone for his crimes, and his eldest son was still by Uncle Zhu's side......

Zhou Rui is ready to bear all the charges.

At this time, a cold and mocking voice exploded in Zhou Rui's ears: "I heard that Steward Zhou has two sons? ”

Zhou Rui shivered and replied, "Yes." ”

The voice spoke again: "Where are they all on errands?" ”

Without waiting for Zhou Rui to answer, the voice said with a bit of sarcasm: "Steward Zhou is worthy of being a big celebrity next to the second wife, and the eldest son is a companion by Jia Zhu's side." Even the youngest son is surrounded by two or three maids and nurses! ”

Zhou Rui looked up, and Uncle Hu didn't have half an expression and pulled with him, and slowly calmed down.

Pull homely? Would Jahu be so kind?

Of course not.

Know yourself and know your opponent, and you can't win a hundred battles. Yesterday, Jia Hu asked Crane to return to inquire about the situation of Zhou Rui's family.

Among the people of Jiafu, with the reuse of the second wife, Zhou Rui's family lived a very nourishing life.

is not as good as Mama Lai's house, and she has a big mansion with a small garden outside, but she lives in the back street and is a neighbor with the Jia family's side branch Shu clan, which is a little more spacious than them.

It was a warning, and after Jia Hu said these words, he stopped speaking and drank his tea. He was afraid that he would get angry for a while, so he chopped Zhou Rui.

Seeing that Jia Hu finished singing with a black face, Jia Yu continued to sing with a white face?

No, if Jia Hu hadn't said that the most painful thing in the world is not death, but living in the shadow of death at any time, and telling Jia Hu of his plan, he would have ordered someone to beat him happily.

Jia Yu asked a few words lukewarmly, and then sent Zhou Rui out, and he himself brushed his sleeves away, asking Jia Hu to do what he should do.

Jia Hu didn't care, ordered the crane to call Lin Zhixiao, told him something, waited for a while, Lin Zhixiao replied that it was ready, and went to the guest house.

Zhou Rui came out of the big room, and he really didn't know what the father and son were doing.

said that he wanted to interrogate himself, but the eldest man only asked a few words, which was no different from asking other people; said that he doubted himself, so Uncle Hu asked a few other words, but the eldest master didn't say anything about coercion and temptation.

Of course, having said that, Zhou Rui will not give in.

Although he is greedy for money, he can know that one servant does not care about the two masters, he is a person under the second wife, and he can only live under the hands of the second wife.

The slave who betrays the master, not to mention whether other masters dare to use it, the first one, his daughter-in-law will pick his skin.

Zhou Rui doesn't think that Uncle Hu, who was admitted to Xiucai, is anything great, isn't Lai Shangrong also a good seedling for reading? It can be seen that reading has nothing to do with who it is. Therefore, Zhou Rui is not like some subordinates to Uncle Hu, taking his words as a guideline, and thinking about every word and sentence, what is the deep meaning.

Besides, Uncle Hu is only eleven years old, oh no, he will be twelve years old after the New Year, but what difference does this make? His eldest son is with Uncle Zhu, what can happen? The youngest son is at home, but the second wife will not watch Uncle Hu take his younger son.

The second wife sent someone to ask, and Zhou Rui said very calmly that the eldest master didn't ask anything, so that the wife didn't have to worry. By the way, he vaguely expressed his loyalty.

Unexpectedly, when he was still on an errand that day, someone came to sue him that something had happened at home, and his mother-in-law was waiting for him to come home.

Zhou Rui was startled, looking at the hand that was making calculations for the purchase list, his bad premonition made him not care about the errand, hurriedly explained a few words, and hurried back.

Zhou Rui went home and didn't mention what news he heard for the time being, Jia Hu left the big room and went to the guest house where he arranged for people to live yesterday.

This guest house, in the southwest corner of Rong Mansion, is not far from a large Yong Road, which leads directly to Ning Rong Street.

The courtyard is very large, there are many rooms, the size and decoration are the same, of course, it is not as good as the Songtao Courtyard where Jia Hu lives, but it is much better than the home of these dozen teenagers, for them, the place where the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can imagine is only like this.

They were all inspected by Lin Zhixiao and Jia Hu, and they had a good heart, and when they chose a room, they each chose their own, and they didn't fight because someone looked the same as themselves, and they spent a night in a foreign land, and they all got up in the morning to read.

When Jia Hu came, he saw these people, one by one, studying at several stone tables.

When I returned to Beijing, I was in a hurry, and I set off almost the day after the Mid-Autumn Festival, during which Jia Hu was busy with other things and did not buy them books. Most of the books they hold in their hands are borrowed from others or bought second-hand books, which are tattered and tattered, but they are very neat, and it can be seen that the owner must cherish them.

These books, along with a few old clothes, are probably all the belongings they brought over.

Jia Hu didn't alarm anyone, and someone noticed it when he came in.

The crowd greeted him one after another.

Jia Hu responded one by one, and in a blink of an eye, he was in the middle of the crowd.

His brocade clothes are particularly conspicuous among the crowd.

Some of these people are envious, some are uncomfortable, and some are secretly determined, but none of them have any bad thoughts in life.

Among these people, the eldest one, sixteen-year-old Jia Jue, paused for a moment before he said embarrassedly, "Why did Brother Hu come over?" ”

Jia Hu smiled: "What? Can't I come? ”
