When Mrs. Wang came to Mrs. Jia's house, Jia Zheng had already sat back on the Nanmu chair, and was slowly sipping tea with him. The tea and blood stains on the floor in the house have also been cleaned.
However, Mrs. Wang already knew about Jia Yu being smashed on the head by Mrs. Jia on the way here. Seeing Mrs. Jia's expressionless face, sitting on the Luohan bed and talking to Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang sneered in her heart.
I don't know what Mrs. Jia and Jia Zheng said after Jia Yu left, and when they saw Mrs. Wang coming in, they stopped what they had said. Mrs. Jia waited until Mrs. Wang saluted and sat down before ordering: "The Holy Lord is chasing the arrears, and you already know about it." ”
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she was stunned, what she already knew, she didn't know at all, okay? Then he spoke: "The daughter-in-law still doesn't know about this, I don't know where the old lady heard it?" After speaking, Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Zheng on the left, and then turned her head to look at Mrs. Jia.
Seeing that she didn't seem to be faking like that, Mrs. Jia frowned and told the ins and outs of the matter. Mrs. Jia naturally wouldn't say that this incident was caused by Daiyu's offering of silver. Mrs. Wang heard what Mrs. Jia said seriously, and even heard that all the houses in Beijing were raising funds to repay the arrears, and her heart couldn't help but sink.
Seeing that Mrs. Wang bowed her head and was silent, Mrs. Jia secretly hated Mrs. Wang for pretending to be a saw-mouthed gourd at this time, and she didn't expect her to say anything, so she directly ordered: "Go back and take out 50,000 taels, and let the second master send it to the household." ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Jia saw Mrs. Wang looking up, so she had to sigh and said, "Although people like us can't be the leader, we can't be the ones who drag our legs." Saying that, Mrs. Jia glanced at Jia Zheng, stretched her brows slightly, and said, "I can't say that this is also an opportunity for the second master, didn't the boss do the same back then?" ”
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she looked at Jia Zheng, agreed with Mrs. Jia's statement in her heart, and said secretly: Dafang used the ancestral plaque to exchange for today's official position, and now I will take out 50,000 taels, and it is also feasible to give the old man a future. Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang nodded and said, "Everything is up to the old lady." ”
Jia Zheng saw that this matter was settled, and he was secretly happy in his heart, in his mind, he had been suppressed by Jia Yu for several years, and the opportunity to turn over was in front of him.
I heard Mrs. Jia mutter: "That's it for now, and the other 100,000 taels are reserved, maybe it will come in handy at any time." ”
Mrs. Wang was fighting for Jia Zheng's future before, so she deserved the 50,000 taels, but now that she heard that she had to prepare 100,000 taels, she couldn't help but change her face and asked, "I don't know when the old lady needs this silver?" There is not much money left in the house. ”
Hearing Mrs. Wang say this, Mrs. Jia frowned and said, "Didn't all the Zhuangzi shops be collected?" Why is there not much money left? ”
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she was naturally displeased in her heart, but she didn't show anything, but said: "Although the rents of Zhuangzi shops everywhere have been delivered, but now there is a flood in the south, a drought in the north, and the harvest is not good. ”
Jia Zheng nodded with satisfaction and interjected: "Mrs. is doing the right thing, but you can't ruin the reputation of our house because of a little rent, the old lady is used to pity the old and the poor." ”
Hearing Jia Zheng say this, Mrs. Jia's words in her throat were all blocked, although she was secretly angry in her heart: A dead prostitute! Dare to be greedy for ink! But he had to nod and said: "Even if you say so, you can't delay, this silver is bound to be made up, and the second family will see where this silver should come from." ”
When Madame Wang heard this, she thought to herself: The dead old woman doesn't want me to give this money, does she? That's not good, I have to keep all my money for Baoyu.
Mrs. Wang thought for a while and said in a low voice: "This public middle school really can't get those, why don't you let the eldest master make some of it?" The lord has become bigger and bigger over the years, and now he is the boss's boss. ”
Mrs. Jia didn't object after hearing this, and nodded and said, "Since Ming'er called the old family here, I'll tell her that is." Now you first took the 50,000 taels and gave it to your master, and tomorrow you asked your master to send it to the household department early in the morning, so that you can leave a seal in front of the saint. ”
Mrs. Jia said this, and Mrs. Wang nodded in response, thinking in her heart how much to let the big house fill it. Jia Zheng was even more full of joy thinking, how happy he would be when he saw the silver he returned tomorrow, and how he would reward himself.
Mrs. Jia sent someone to summon Mrs. Xing the next day, and originally wanted to talk about letting the big house pay the money, but Mrs. Xing did not come. The mandarin duck only whispered a few words to Wang Xifeng, and Wang Xifeng asked Mrs. Xing to stay in the courtyard, and took the carriage to Mrs. Jia's courtyard.
When Mrs. Jia saw that the person who came was not Mrs. Xing, but Wang Xifeng, she couldn't help but lament with a calm face: "People are getting older, and they are becoming more and more useless, and they can't even call your wife." ”
As soon as Wang Xifeng heard the meaning of Mrs. Jia's words, didn't she say that Mrs. Xing was unfilial? With the name of unfilial piety, not to mention that Mrs. Xing can't afford it, even Jia and Jia Lian don't dare to respond. What's more, the spring wedding is imminent, and his children are still young!
Wang Xifeng hurriedly explained: "I don't know why, I heard from the people in the wife's house that the wife didn't sleep all night yesterday, saying that it was the master's matter, and the details are not clear." This morning, I didn't see the old man come out to eat, and asked his wife, but he said that the old man went to the yamen, and the wife cried, and she fainted without eating, and she couldn't get up at this time. ”
When Wang Xifeng said this, seeing that Mrs. Jia's face was a little unsightly, she didn't pay attention to it, and hurriedly took two steps forward to Mrs. Jia and said with a smile: "What is the matter with the old lady, although she ordered me to come." Even though I'm stupid, the old lady can't stop teaching me, right? ”
Seeing this, Mrs. Jia knew that she couldn't say that, so she had to ask, "Can you invite Lang Zhong for your wife?" If it's not good, it's okay to take my post and ask the doctor to take a look. ”
Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "I originally said that I was going to invite, but Sister Mandarin Duck came over to call." The wife struggled to come over, afraid that the old lady had something to order. I had to leave the girl to wait in the house, and rushed over myself. ”
Saying that, Wang Xifeng smiled again: "The old lady don't dislike me for being careless, just tell me to come, but no, I also came back and asked the old lady, and I will never make my own opinion." After speaking, Wang Xifeng looked at Mrs. Jia with expectant eyes.
Mrs. Jia sighed in her heart, but said with a smile on her face: "Okay, it's not a big deal, seeing that it's the New Year, but your aunt has been unhappy recently, so I thought about letting your wife help with the New Year." Since she's sick, forget it, and then think about it. She hadn't done any of this either, and she was embarrassed to go if she wasn't sick. ”
Wang Xifeng smiled when he heard this: "The old lady handed over this matter to me, and I will ensure that I will handle it properly." ”
Mrs. Jia didn't agree, but smiled: "I know that you are a filial person, go back and serve your wife well, you also have two small ones to take care of in the house, you don't have to worry about these, just go back and let your sister-in-law Zhu help your aunt." ”
In this way, Wang Xifeng nodded, said a few more jokes to Mrs. Jia, and then said goodbye and returned to the east courtyard.
Mrs. Xing didn't know what was going on, and she didn't understand why Wang Xifeng didn't let her go, and when she saw Wang Xifeng coming back, she sent someone to ask for a doctor, and she was even more puzzled in her heart.
After everyone was sent out, Wang Xifeng explained the matter to Mrs. Xing. When Mrs. Xing heard that Mrs. Jia had such an idea, she was also very dissatisfied in her heart, but thinking of Jia Yu's attitude, she endured it again.
Mrs. Xing lowered her head and sighed: "I don't have anything, but now Lian'er is studying, and it costs money to become a scholar." In addition, when the girl is married, only 5,000 will be paid in the public school, and the rest will be subsidized by ourselves. and Brother Chun is also older, and the old man said that he had to find a good master to enlighten Brother Chun. ”
Saying that, Mrs. Xing wiped away her tears and said, "Don't you see, last night, the old man came back from the old lady's house, and the blood on his face didn't scare me to death!" Fortunately, the doctor came and said it was fine. That's it, it's also hanging. The master was afraid of scaring you, so he went out early in the morning before he even saw Brother Chun. ”
Seeing Mrs. Xing like this, although Wang Xifeng disliked her in her heart for being incompetent, but in the end, Mrs. Xing had been taking care of their husband and wife all these years, and Wang Xifeng had nothing to be picky about. Then he reassured: "What a big deal, although Mrs. can rest assured, there is naturally a master outside to support me, and I am also on my wife's side in the house." ”
When Mrs. Xing heard Wang Xifeng say this, she raised her head and took Wang Xifeng's hand and said very emotionally: "I have wronged you all these years, and I am sandwiched between your aunt and us when I enter the door, and Lian'er is often too busy to be at home." I'm also a bad person, and I rely on your encouragement to support me up and down. ”
Wang Xifeng saw that Mrs. Xing affirmed her so much, although she was proud in her heart, she was more emotional, on the day she got married, Jia Lian said to herself: Home and everything is prosperous! Now it seems that it is not true!
Wang Xifeng then said to Mrs. Xing: "What did mother say? The master and the master are earning and fighting for this family, and we will work together to defend it. I often say that home and everything is prosperous, but now I think about it, isn't it? Look at now, although we don't have anything in the public school, but now that we have separated from each other, our life will not be bad. ”
When Mrs. Xing heard this, she was very happy and said, "Isn't it? Although the old lady is unwilling, there is no way, he always has to follow the old lady, and when the old lady is gone, our house will be divided sooner or later. No matter how much is left in the public middle school by then, as long as the ancestral property is still there, with this in our hands now, our days will definitely become more and more prosperous. ”
Mrs. Xing said happily and thought beautifully. Wang Xifeng knows how easy it is to separate the family! Now the first thing is to force the old lady to let the public middle school take the silver out and still owe the silver! After the filial piety, the girl will be married in a beautiful way. The matter of such a big house will save more than half.
Thinking of welcoming the Spring Festival, Wang Xifeng inevitably thought of the other girls living in the house, and couldn't help but sigh for them. Yingchun has a good life, and when he meets an elder brother like Jia Lian, others don't have such a good fate. Especially in the spring, I am getting more and more lonely at a young age, and I don't know what to do in the future...... (To be continued.) )
