Chapter 153: Celebration Banquet (7)

"Yes. Hiring teachers in the south of the Yangtze River, buying girls and buying musical instruments, it was originally the errand of Brother Rong and Brother Qiang in Dongfu.

Because my mother came in and asked for the grace of Grandma Lian, the two brothers went with us.

I went to Nanjing first, and took the old man's letter to Zhen's house to get the silver. The Zhen family originally received 50,000 silver in the house, and the lord meant to call for 30,000 yuan first.

Later, after finishing the errand, plus the expenses of a month in Suzhou, 30,000 taels of silver was not enough, Mr. Zhan and Mr. Shan, as well as the two sons of the head of Dongfu Lilai, pleaded with Brother Rong and Brother Qiang, saying that they would simply support the other 20,000 silver, and then have a good time in Suzhou for a while, and then divide the rest of the money, and then come back and say that the ministry was used up. ”

The Zhao brothers said.

Their words also made everyone in the hall dumbfounded.

In the men's seat, Jia Rong and Jia Qiang, as well as Zhan Guang and Shan Renren, were extremely ugly.

Jia Rong scolded angrily: "Damn Zhao family brothers, what did you two do to lose your mind, what nonsense, who~ who divided the silver, it was clearly used"

Jia Rong was originally not good at concealment, it was good that he didn't speak, and when he said it, it was almost equivalent to three hundred taels of silver here.

"How much did you two share?"

Jia Baoyu continued to ask the two brothers of the Zhao family.

"Our two brothers are soft-spoken, each of them has a hundred taels, the Lai brothers, and Mr. Zhan and Mr. Shan, each of them have a share of at least seven or eight hundred, as for Brother Rong and Qiang'er, the slaves don't know"

The faces of the people in the hall were very exciting, and Jia Zhen's face was also ugly.

As the head of the Dongfu, he arranged some errands in the garden, which was originally a voluntary help.

Now that such a thing has happened, his face is completely lost.

There was no need to guess, he knew what kind of senses Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang felt to him now when they heard these words.

"Two damned evil animals, is there no need for you to chew at home? It's a shame to do such a thing that is unconscionable, I'll kill you two unsuccessful bastards! ”

Jia Zhen grabbed a bowl and threw it at Jia Rong.

"Bang~!"

He was annoyed and angry, and used almost ten percent of his strength. Fortunately, Jia Rong was very clear about his Lao Tzu's temper, and he was ready as early as when he spoke, and he dodged to avoid it.

Next to him, the handsome Jia Qiang hid behind Jia Rong vigorously.

The other half, the Qin clan and the You clan, also stood up, and the Qin clan looked extremely ashamed.

"Old Ancestor"

Qin's delicate voice said to Jia's mother, and her voice was aggrieved.

Jia Mu was originally very angry, but looking at her appearance, it was not easy to have a seizure.

Listening to the sound next to her, she knew that Jia Zhen was doing it for her.

"You two sit down, their families are not in a family, they eat, drink, prostitute and gamble outside, and when they come home, do you still want you to suffer for them?

Sit down. ”

In the end, the face of the two governments will be maintained.

Jia Baoyu naturally saw the farce on the men's seat, he looked at it coldly, and suddenly scolded the Zhao brothers loudly:

"You two bastards, the master is also something you can casually accuse?

Could it be that the East Mansion is poorer than our West Mansion, you know, when the original plan was to build a garden, Uncle Zhen of the East Mansion not only gave up most of the Huifang Garden, but later knew that the silver here was not enough, and volunteered to fund us to spend 50,000 silver for nothing, how could Rong'er and Qiang'er covet this little bargain?

It is obvious that you dog slaves are greedy, bullying the two of them young and ignorant, and deliberately coaxing, so they did these things. ”

Jia Baoyu's words gave Jia Rong and Jia Qiang two inspirations, and they immediately responded: "Yes, yes, what Uncle Bao said is, they deceived us, we originally said that we wanted to go back to Beijing when we did good things, but it was they who said 'there is heaven and Suzhou and Hangzhou', since we have arrived in Suzhou, how can we not experience it."

We are young, and we don't know their sinister intentions, so we fell for their evil! ”

Jia Baoyu smiled, and then said: "The two brothers of the Zhao family were greedy for the money of the Mo master's family, and they should have been punished severely, but now they sincerely repent and take the initiative to confess, so each of them will be beaten forty boards to set an example." ”

"Yes, thank you for your magnanimity."

The two brothers of the Zhao family consciously walked to the side and lay on the torture bench.

Obviously, these two, like Lin Zhixiao, have already surrendered.

Greedy for so much silver, he actually took only forty boards and lifted it? There is no mention of taking back the income of greedy ink.

Now the direction of the wind is very clear, as long as it is effective in advance, Bao Er Ye is still very generous to his own people

Many minions in Rongguo Mansion began to turn their brains and think about how to seek benefits in this reshuffle of the Jia family's slave world.

The crackling sound of the board hit the two brothers of the Zhao family, as well as Jia Rong, Jia Qiang, Zhan Guang, and Shan Renren in the hall.

Although Jia Baoyu gave Jia Rong and his brothers face, no one could see what the truth was.

However, the two of them are the Jia family in the end, no matter how you say it, it is not too much of a sin to take their own things.

Zhan Guang and Shan Ren were embarrassed.

As a diner living in Jiafu, he actually partnered to covet the money of the Mo Dong's family.

When it spreads, the reputation of the scholar is completely ruined.

Although they didn't read anything famous, reputation was one of the things they cared about the most.

"Brother Bao, this matter is all maliciously framed by them, and Mr. Zhan and I don't know about it at all"

Shan Renren's brain teaser was in a hurry, he glanced at Jia Rong and the two, and said: "Not only do we not know, but we can also prove that Brother Rong and Brother Qiang are wronged, after they arrived in Suzhou, they worked wholeheartedly and never slacked off."

Mr. Zhan and I usually don't go out, only if they don't understand singing or musical instruments, they come to ask us.

Therefore, there is no way to talk about the matter of greedy ink.

Or, or the minions are greedy, and in order to reduce the guilt, they maliciously climb on our heads."

The more he talked, the more confident he became, and even he believed it, so he didn't have a lupine towel in his hand.

Jia Baoyu glanced at them lightly: "The two gentlemen haven't gone back to pack the package, what are you waiting for?" ”

The single hired person was dumbfounded.

Jia Baoyu directly ordered the two gentlemen and said: "You go with the two gentlemen to pack your luggage, and you are not allowed to take away any money and property, and then send the two gentlemen out 'politely'." ”

"Yes." The two nursing homes were worried that there was no place to make meritorious contributions, and they were as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

They naturally understand what "polite" means.

walked to the front of the hall and bent down and saluted: "Two gentlemen, please!" ”

After saying that, he stepped forward and grabbed them and left.

"Let go, let go, insult Sven, insult Sven"

Jia Rong and Jia Qiang hurriedly stood far away, afraid that Jia Baoyu would suddenly treat them like this.

Behind the screen, Wang Xifeng pouted and said: "Have you seen it, Brother Bao is iron-faced and selfless, they are all scholars, and they don't give any face, and they will be driven out when they say they will be driven out." ”

Face? If he hadn't been worried about Jia Zheng's face, eating and drinking in the owner's house like this, and cheating the garbage of the owner's property, Jia Baoyu would have sent him to the official as soon as possible.

"Big Brother Jane."

"What do you have to say, Brother Bao?"

Jia Zhen was very polite to Jia Baoyu.

"It stands to reason that the two brothers of the Lai family are the people of Brother Zhen, and the younger brother should not overstep his responsibilities, but the younger brother foolishly thinks that people like the Lai family will be a scourge sooner or later if they stay at home, and please deal with it carefully and beware of Diao slaves persecuting the master."

Mama Lai has two sons, the eldest son Lai Da and the second son Lai Sheng, who are the heads of the two mansions of the Jia family.

"Thank you Brother Bao for reminding me that I didn't notice the matter of Gusu for a while and recommended the wrong person.

Brother Bao rest assured, after I go back, I will severely punish the two brothers of the Lai family, and ask them to spit out the greedy silver and send it here. ”

"There is no need for silver, our two mansions are not divided from each other, and it is too obvious for Brother Zhen to say so.

To put it this way, how could the construction of this garden be done without the generosity of Brother Zhen?

When Brother Zhen said this, he deliberately tormented the younger brother. ”

"Hahaha, okay, let's not talk about this."

Jia Zhen's heart was finally happy.

He thought that as soon as Jia Baoyufu became an official, he would not take him seriously.

Lin Zhixiao led several groups of people to raid the house and did not come back, so the group of people kneeling under the stage could not deal with it. Jia Baoyu gave Mingyan and the others a look, told them to take care of them, and then jumped off the stage and walked to the hall.

Jia Mu said angrily: "Your play is finally finished?" ”

Jia Baoyu shook his head.

Jia Mu smiled angrily: "Then what are you doing when you come back?" ”

Jia Baoyu sat down, took a glass of warm wine from Tanchun's hand, took a sip, and then said, "Does the ancestor know that every time I go out, I will bring some small gifts to the sisters at home?"

This time I went out of Beijing for half a year, and I was naturally no exception, bringing gifts to the second sister and the third sister. ”

As soon as Jia Baoyu said this, Yingchun immediately raised his head, and Tanchun wanted to speak again.

Mother Jia's heart moved, but she said: "What is worth saying about this, are you short of money to buy gifts for them, so you want to ask me to sponsor you?" ”

Jia Baoyu smiled, Jia's mother still has a great sense of humor.

"No, my grandson still has this bit of silver.

The grandson just couldn't figure it out, it was so decent, the gifts had arrived home, and they were lost in vain. ”

"Lost?"

Jia Mu was surprised: "How did you lose it?" ”

"The grandson doesn't know, but someone knows."

Jia Baoyu smiled and nodded outside, and Lin Zhixiao's family immediately came in.

"Bring someone here."

"Yes."

Lin Zhixiao's family nodded and turned to leave, and after a while, he saw her bring someone to escort five mothers-in-law over.

"Get on your knees."

The rough envoy was very rude, and when she reached the threshold, she escorted the person to her knees.

These people didn't dare to struggle either.

Jia Mu's face suddenly changed.

Although she couldn't remember the names of most of these people, she knew that they seemed to be from her courtyard.

"What's wrong with them?"

Jia Baoyu smiled and said, "They are all the people who were responsible for helping to carry the luggage when Du Qiuniang entered the door yesterday. Coincidentally, the gift that my grandson bought for my second sister was three golden hairpins, which I originally asked Qiu Niang to help me keep them, but now there is only one left, so I have to ask them. ”

Mrs. Wang was afraid that Mother Jia would be angry, so she immediately reproached: "Nonsense, people in the old lady's courtyard, how can you take it privately?" ”

Jia Baoyu grinned: "I know that the old lady loves me, and she will definitely not bother with me." Besides, the old lady's yard is so big, there are so many people, even I live in it, I lost something, can't I ask someone? Don't worry, the old lady won't blame me. ”

Mother Jia was still a little mindful, but when she heard Jia Baoyu say it with such a hippie smile, she suddenly lost her anger.

"Look at your monkey spirit, tell me, what's wrong, did they steal your things?"

Hearing this, Jia Baoyu looked at the five mothers-in-law outside, smiled and said lightly: "Do you say it yourself or will I find someone to help you say it?" ”

"Bao Erye is gracious, it was Mother Qian who instructed us to do this, she said that Du Qiuniang is just a Qinglou woman, and she is also the lowest person in the house, even if she takes her things, she doesn't dare to make a noise, so the minions dare to make the minions really don't know that it is a gift from Bao Erye to the second girl, and it was all instructed by Mother Qian."

One of the five mothers-in-law said in a pale and gloomy voice. Her words also made the face of a woman standing in the corner change greatly.

Jia Mu's eyebrows were gloomy as water.

She doesn't have much impression of these mothers-in-law, but the money mother in their mouth is the person who often waits for her to be called.

"Old lady, don't listen to their nonsense, the slave doesn't know anything."

Mother Qian immediately knelt down and said.

Jia Baoyu looked at the table in the corner, Du Qiuniang's face was sad, knowing that she was sad to listen to the mother-in-law's words.

gave her a reassuring look, and then Jia Baoyu said: "Ancestor, although Qiu Niang's status is low, but now that she is my person, then my grandson can't allow any slave to be bullied."

Besides, the act of theft is extremely inflicted, what kind of lintel is our Jia family, how can we tolerate such a slave?

Please let your ancestors call the shots for your grandchildren! ”

Next to him, the mother-in-law and Mother Qian were already climbing.

The mother-in-law thought that Mother Qian was the person next to Mother Jia, and only she could let Mother Jia save them, so she tried her best to climb: "We only took five small ones, only you, Mother Qian, took a hairpin head phoenix, which is worth two hundred taels of silver."

You can't hide such a big thing, as long as you send someone to search it, you will know. ”

The person who is responsible for the loss will eventually be angry, and besides, the five people on the other side are all climbing, and Mother Qian finally stopped quibbling.

Jia Mu was furious.

Before Jia Baoyu dealt with the people outside, she wouldn't be too angry.

No matter how bastard those people are, it is also the responsibility of the men outside.

Unexpectedly, there is such an unfinished thing around her!

Stealing gold and silver? This is something that any noble wife who has ever done is intolerable.

"You take her and search for her."

Mother Jia lightly instructed a mother-in-law beside her to take the climbing mother-in-law to investigate.

Because it was last night, Mother Qian didn't have time to bring the things back to her house, and she stayed in Rongqing Hall temporarily, so the searchers came back after a while.

Brought back a peacock fairy bird pattern hairpin head phoenix, very delicate and beautiful.

Mother Qian was irrefutable, so she could only beg Mother Jia.

Jia Mu felt very tired.

Although she didn't approve of Jia Baoyu's troubles today, the problems exposed by this trouble in Jiafu really shocked her.

Doing things so properly, Lai Da, who is low and small everywhere, dares to be greedy for 30,000 silver just in the construction of the garden, and when he says it, others may not believe it.

I thought that my side would be better, but I didn't expect it

"Sixty boards, let's get out."

In the matter of disposing of the inner house, Jia's mother will definitely not be softer than Jia Baoyu.

Lin Zhixiao's family also saw that Jia's mother was in a bad mood, so after she gave the order, she took the mother-in-law who cried wolf down, including Mama Qian.

Ignoring the howling outside, Jia Mu said: "Thanks to you, you still understand these things in the inner house, and you still know what it means to ask me."

I don't care what kind of royal means you learned outside, anyway, I tell you, the grandfather's family should do the affairs of the master's family, that is, you will be the master of the house in the future, these small things in the house, you had better not interfere, let your daughter-in-law do it herself, this is the principle of yin and yang of husband and wife.

Even if she's a fool and can't figure out these things, you can at most assign someone else to deal with them, and if you do it yourself, you will definitely be ridiculed. ”

Jia Mu said, subconsciously glancing at Baochai on the side.

If that's the case, then none of these things are at risk.

"My grandson has been taught."

Jia Baoyu nodded yes.
