Chapter 550: Self-interest
Mother Jia was thinking about the affairs of the Zhen family in the room, the Zhen family in Jiangnan was almost to the point of covering the sky with one hand, is it really good for the Jia family to keep such a big force?
If they are let go now, they will eventually appear in the end, the situation of the king and the horse sharing the world in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
When Jia Mu was thinking, the maid outside shouted, "Uncle is here." ”
Immediately after Jia Ke entered the main house, the mandarin duck followed Jia Ke and also entered the house, came to Jia's mother in three steps and two steps, bowed down and said, "Old lady, uncle is here." ”
Jia Mu opened her eyes and glanced down at Jia Ke, who had finished giving the salute and was waiting for her to speak.
"Big brother is here, then sit down and talk."
Jia Ke didn't shirk either, and went directly to the chair next to him and sat down.
"Did the mandarin duck tell you just now?"
"I don't know what the old lady is talking about, but the mandarin duck didn't tell me anything else."
"In that case, I'll talk to you."
After Jia Mu said this, she straightened up from the bed, and the mandarin duck quickly put a pillow behind Jia Mu.
"The Zhen family in Jiangnan sent someone just now, I heard that you sent someone to surround the Zhen family, is there something wrong with their family?"
As soon as Jia Ke heard Jia's mother say this, he was a little surprised in his heart, he surrounded the Zhen family, and he could still let people come out, it seems that the south has been infiltrated by the Zhen family very strongly.
Because of this matter, Jia Yucun, as his own person, will never bend the law for personal gain, so it is said that it is those people under Jia Yucun.
The other is Tian Ye, and only when he spoke, those people dared to do this blatantly.
Jia Ke was a little unhappy when he thought of this, this Tian Ye himself was also very optimistic about him, but he didn't expect that in addition to the leak in this important matter, it seemed that he was bending the law for personal gain.
"Old lady, some time ago, I sent someone to deposit the silver to Jiangnan to purchase grain, how could I have thought that this Zhen family dared to order grain merchants everywhere not to sell grain, so that I have not received a grain of grain until now, how can I send relief to the victims in Shaanxi?"
After listening to Jia Ke's explanation, Jia Mu's heart jumped a little, this matter is not a trivial matter, and the world will be turbulent if it is not good.
Now Mother Jia already regards the world as their Jia family, and when she heard that this was the case, she also had some resentment towards the Zhen family, didn't she want to subvert her family?
"So that's the case, even if their family dares to bend the law like this, then I won't be able to help them, big brother, you go back and do things according to the law."
Jia Ke hurriedly stood up and thanked Jia Mu, then bowed down and exited.
When Jia's mother saw Jia Ke withdraw from the room, she said angrily to the mandarin duck on the side: "What's the matter with this old lady of the Zhen family? She also said that she is an old relative to our family, and she will demolish the stage for us at a critical moment, I think she has bad intentions, and now she has no choice but to come and surrender. ”
The mandarin duck also hurriedly followed Jia's mother and said: "Their family has gone too far this time, don't you know how many lives will be lost in this delay?" It was the old lady's mercy, which could be regarded as saving the lives of countless people. ”
Jia Mu listened to the compliment of the mandarin duck, nodded with a smile, and then said: "Alas, when people get old, their hearts will soften, and they can't see this kind of thing." ”
Seeing that Jia's mother had recovered somewhat, Xingzhi asked beside him, "What about the Baoyu and a few girls sent by the Zhen family?" ”
When Jia Mu Jia Mu heard this, she patted her forehead with her hand and thought for a while, "God has the virtue of a good life, since they have arrived at our house, spare their lives." ”
"What does the old lady mean?"
"Those girls signed a deed of sale for them, and they became maids in our house, so they also saved their lives."
"As for that Zhen Baoyu, I think he looks very similar to our Baoyu, in case someone outside has bad intentions, our Baoyu will be in danger, scratch his face and send him to the stable to be a horse boy."
The mandarin duck listened to Jia's mother's instructions, and the chill in her heart rose directly to her head, but she didn't dare to refute, and hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Listen to the old lady's orders, I'll do it now." ”
Jia Mu nodded and closed her eyes, now what she was thinking about was the stability of their Jia family, as for the old relatives of the Zhen family in the south, since they were against their Jia family, leaving them a root, even if they were worthy of them, as for them, they couldn't help.
At this time, people from outside came in to report, saying that Mrs. Wang asked to see her.
As soon as Mother Jia heard this, she knew what the old mother who didn't see just now was doing, this was Mrs. Wang.
"Let her in and talk back."
Jia's mother commanded her all her life, and the curtain was immediately opened outside, and Mrs. Wang walked into Jia's mother's main room from the outside.
When Mrs. Wang saw Mother Jia, she first saluted, and then stood aside in an orderly manner.
"Didn't you just say hello in the morning? What's the matter with you coming here again? ”
Mrs. Wang has been married to the family for so many years, and she knows this old lady very well, knowing that she doesn't care much about small things, and once she gets to big things, she can't play tricks with her.
So Mrs. Wang said honestly: "Just now, an old lady of the Zhen family asked to see me and wanted me to send a letter to the palace to give their concubine Niangniang, so I came over to ask the old lady for her idea." ”
After hearing this, Jia Mu glanced at Mrs. Wang in surprise, she knew how arrogant Mrs. Wang was outside now.
Mrs. Wang was a little embarrassed by Mother Jia, and finally could only bite the bullet and say: "If it is a trivial matter, I will naturally make up my own mind, but how dare I make up my own mind in this matter." ”
After listening to Mrs. Wang's words, Jia Mu nodded with satisfaction, it seems that Mrs. Wang still knows the severity.
"Don't worry about this matter, the Zhen family is over this time, who made them dare to be so bold and want to ruin our family."
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang's heart was sudden, this was the first time she had heard such rebellious words from Jia's mother.
And Jia Mu also seemed to feel that she had made some gaffes just now, so she pretended to be a little tired and sent Mrs. Wang out.
When Mrs. Wang left Jia's mother's room and returned to her residence, she was a little distracted. Now he is worried about his daughter and thinking about his son's future, and he is in a dilemma.
In the end, Mrs. Wang still made up her mind, compared with the girl and her son, she still thought about her son, and in Mrs. Wang's heart, she thought that at most, she would ask Jia Zheng to spare the lives of her daughter and grandson, and let them enjoy peace in peace.
Besides, the mandarin duck came out of Jia's mother's room, greeted more than a dozen sturdy mothers-in-law, and went directly to the courtyard next to Jia's mother.
As a result, as soon as they entered the courtyard, they heard laughter in the main house, and when they heard the voice, it turned out that Jia Baoyu was talking to a few girls.
The mandarin duck was a little annoyed when he saw this situation, which one dared to attract Baoyu.
At this time, the old servant of the Zhen family saw the mandarin duck coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him with a smile.
"It turns out that the girl is here, is there any order from the old lady?"
Mandarin Duck looked at the treacherous and cunning cell boss in front of him, and a sneer appeared on his face, you just attracted Jia Baoyu and didn't do anything.
"The place where this old man is staying now is the inner house of our Jia Mansion, you are a man, I'm afraid it's a little inconvenient."
After Yuan Yang said this, he said to a few sturdy mothers-in-law next to him: "Send this old man out of the second door, tell the little girl outside to take good care of it, in case it is gone, the old lady will not be able to explain it." ”
As soon as these mothers-in-law heard what the mandarin duck meant, they understood it, so they separated two people, stepped forward and directly grabbed the old servant's left and right arms, and dragged him out.
Although the old servant was struggling hard, he was helpless to be old and frail, and he couldn't struggle, so he could only shout loudly: "What is this for?" This is the hospitality of your Jia family, is there any royal law? ”
Their noisy voices immediately stopped, and then Jia Baoyu came out of the house, followed by several beautiful girls, and Zhen Baoyu also walked out at the end.
Jia Baoyu saw that several mothers-in-law were dragging the wife out, and now Jia Baoyu wanted to show her face in front of several girls, so she opened her mouth and scolded: "Stop, what is this going on." ”
As soon as the mandarin duck saw Jia Baoyu asking questions there, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute Jia Baoyu first, and then said: "This old servant is a man, there are rules in our house, and foreign men are not allowed to enter the second gate, so the slave sent someone to send this old servant outside the second gate to find a place for him to rest." ”
Jia Baoyu heard the same truth, so he nodded and stopped talking, if it was a beautiful girl, maybe Jia Baoyu would say a few more words, for an ugly and old man, Jia Baoyu has no compassion.
The girls next to them and Zhen Baoyu didn't say anything when they heard this, after all, big families have this rule, and when they were in Zhen's house, there was no reason for foreign men to enter the second door.
Among them, Zhen Baoyu was a little apprehensive, if he was also a foreign man, I don't know if he would be sent outside the second gate in a while.
Without Jia Baoyu's obstruction, those mothers-in-law had no scruples, and directly dragged the old man out of the small courtyard, and disappeared after a while.
The mandarin duck saw that the old man had been dragged out, so he said to Jia Baoyu: "Third master, the old man was looking for you everywhere just now, I will report to you, you hurry up and go back to the old man, if you go late, the old man will be annoyed." ”
As soon as Jia Baoyu heard this, his soul immediately dispersed, where could he care about anything else, he turned around and said goodbye to a few beautiful girls, and then walked out of the small courtyard, and disappeared after a while.
When Jia Baoyu was gone, the mandarin duck was looking at these girls, and his face showed unbearability, these are everyone's girlfriends, I didn't expect to be a servant now, but it is also their creation to be able to have no score in Jiafu, if they are still in Jiangnan, once they are fucked, I am afraid they don't know where they will be sold.
"Come on, show the contract to these girls, and then let the girls sign and draw it, which will save us a lot of effort."
