Chapter 157: The Inner House Fights
"The old lady told me to go again, what's the matter?"
Jia Cong came back from Shangshu Mansion and went to Donglu Courtyard, and heard Ping'er say that Jia's mother sent several waves of people to urge.
Seeing that Ping'er's expression was faintly worried, Jia Cong didn't speak, and Wang Xifeng smiled on the side: "What are you worried about?" It's not a joke. I tell you, you don't have to worry about him in the future, I can see that you, the master, are not a good person. β
After a night, she vaguely came back to her senses......
Although there is no evidence at all, Wang Xifeng always feels that yesterday's catastrophe is inseparable from the master in front of him.
Nothing else, just because he benefited the most.
That's enough......
Jia Cong smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, didn't the old lady send anyone to see you?" β
When Wang Xifeng heard this, his face turned dark, he glared at Jia Cong angrily, and turned around and went back to the house.
She actually thought that someone would come to see her, but she didn't......
Today, Rongqingtang sent her mother-in-law, Wang Xifeng thought she was asking her to go back, if she hadn't come to visit her, she was still in a complicated mood, thinking about whether to forgive some people......
Who would have thought that he was here to call that "little bastard".
She clearly remembered that the old lady had said that he was not allowed to go to the inner house again.
She was still proud at that time, but now in the blink of an eye, she has become a person who can't enter the Rong Mansion.
It's really scared and scared to death!
Ping'er hurriedly gave Jia Cong a look, and Jia Cong laughed softly: "The second sister-in-law is a fan of the authorities, and no news at this time is the best news for her." β
Ping'er was also confused, she said curiously: "How do you say this?" β
Jia Cong said: "If there is news at this time, I am afraid that it will be the news that the second sister-in-law will go back to Wang's house to visit relatives." The old lady and the lady are now pretending that nothing has happened, just to buffer some time. When the events of these two days have passed, and they are forgotten, then they will send someone again.
Speaking of which, the old lady is really merciful to her second sister-in-law. β
This is the truth, if you are a different person, you will make such a big incident, and even the house will be surrounded, which is a proper big scandal.
Even if you don't have a wife, you have to send it back to your parents' house to learn the rules for two years before you can be released.
In this way, most of the people who can be ashamed to hang themselves, even if they don't hang themselves, their mother's family will find a way to help.
Like now, just ignoring it, Jia Mu is already extraordinarily gracious.
However, this is only a matter of etiquette.
In reality, many things are one thing from the perspective of etiquette, and human affection is another.
For example, from the perspective of etiquette, everyone in the world wants a father to be kind and filial to his son, and a gentleman to be virtuous.
But the reality is another story.
Wang Xifeng's feeling at this time is the same.
When she heard Jia Cong's words inside, she couldn't take it to heart at all, but felt that Jia Cong, this kid, was a little more naΓ―ve, and a little stupid......
Therefore, he sneered through the window: "Sensei always dreams well, and thinks about people's hearts!" If there is something good for you to go now, I will write the word "king" backwards! β
Ping'er was relieved and worried when she heard this, and said, "Grandma's words are the most reasonable, Cong'er, you can be careful!" β
Jia Cong smiled and said, "I understand, don't worry." β
Let's go to Xifu.
Although he said it easily to Ping'er, he was still taking it seriously in his heart.
But it didn't take much effort to guess some signs.
The rumors outside are boiling, and today there are guests from outside, and it is inevitable that they will not reach Jia Mu's ears.
But I don't know if someone else inadvertently leaked his mouth, or deliberately dug a hole for him......
β¦β¦
Rongqing Hall.
"The third master is here!"
A few little girls in red and green were waiting there under the corridor, and when they saw Jia Cong coming, a girl with a talent and a corner, named Jiao'er, greeted with a crisp smile.
A mouth, you can see that one front tooth is not there......
It's funny.
Jia Cong smiled and nodded, then responded to the other maids gently, and then entered the hugging house.
"Jia Cong greets the old lady, the wife, and the ladies."
After entering the hall, Jia Cong felt many eyes fall on his face, some are cold, some are disgusted, some are thoughtful, some are amazing.
Quietly, after taking all kinds of eyes into his eyes, Jia Cong saluted and greeted Andao.
Jia Mu didn't even call directly, so she asked in a deep voice: "You didn't serve your old son in the East Road Courtyard, where did you go?" β
She is extremely unaccustomed to waiting for people, but today she has been waiting for a while, so she is troubled.
Jia Cong smiled faintly and said, "It's funny, today somehow there are suddenly a lot of long-tongued people outside, and there are rumors everywhere about some shallow and unbearable words."
These words reached Mr. Shangshufu, who was very worried, so he sent someone to call me for questioning.
After the gentleman asked the reason, he taught him a lesson, saying that it must be because of my carelessness that I came here.
Cong advised Mr. not to worry, and also laughed at the long-tongued rumor-monger who hid treachery in his heart outside, and he didn't know what to do.
Yesterday, the Queen Mother was exiled because someone used Furong Gongzi to spread rumors, and even a second-class waiter was exiled.
Those fools don't even know what to do, and they are spreading rumors and making trouble on this.
Mr. Cong persuaded him to just watch a good show, it won't take long to think about it, once the Queen Mother hears the news outside the palace, Feng Yan is furious, and someone will be unlucky.
Although the law does not blame the public, and it is difficult to prevent the people's mouth, but picking a few people who jump up and down and have weight to severely punish them can also have the effect of killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys.
When Mr. heard this, he was relieved and returned.
Let the old lady wait for a long time, Cong's sin.
I don't know what the old lady has taught when she recruits Cong? β
Jia Mu: "......"
On the side, Mrs. Wang Ziteng was red-faced.
Baolinghou's wife, Zhu, has become smart again at this time, eating and laughing non-stop, which makes Li's face more and more unbearable.
Even with it, Mrs. Wang's face turned pale.
The Wang family was embarrassed, the Shi family laughed, and she, the daughter of the Wang family, was also disgraced.
Embarrassed by the effort of half a cup of tea, Jia Mufang slowly asked, "What is going on with those words outside?" For no reason, why don't those people talk about others? β
Jia Cong said: "Because when Qionglin feasted Xinghuaniang, Cong revealed it through Furong Gongzi. Later, in order to save his aunt's eldest brother Xue, Jia Cong had to ask for a favor. For this, there is also a price.
Last time, I told the old lady that Cong had figured out a recipe from an ancient book to make soap.
In order to repay the favor, Cong had nothing to do, so he could only dedicate the recipe to others, so he made up for one.
Outsiders don't know this, so they just think that Furong Gongzi will help me in vain, so he deliberately spreads rumors and makes trouble.
Yesterday in Ciqing Palace, Zhang Qun, the waiter of the Li Fan Academy, instigated his sister Shufei Niangniang to say this in front of the Queen Mother, and the prince of Furong happened to be present, so he explained it clearly and promised that there would be no such thing.
The Queen Mother learned that someone was rumoring about the reputation of the Furong Gongzi, and under the anger, Yi sent a decree to His Majesty and the Queen of the Middle Palace, sending the concubine Niangniang into the cold palace and exiled Zhang Qun for 3,000 miles.
The bloody lesson is ahead, Cong Shi doesn't know who is so stupid, and dares to spread rumors about this matter and humiliate the Ye family and my family.
The old lady must have listened to a few ladies talk about it, I don't know which lady is listening to the rumors outside, you might as well say it, once the matter is big, you can also report it and punish it. β
Mother Jia took care of Mrs. Wang's face, where would she say Mrs. Li.
But on the side, Mrs. Zhu didn't care about it, and said with a smile on the spot: "It's your aunt of the Wang family, who came to report the letter after listening to the words of the wife in charge of the Ministry of War." β
Li almost didn't smash the teacup in his hand when he heard this!
But he couldn't care about it, seeing Jia Cong's eyes faintly cold, although he was very aggrieved in his heart, he still had to put on a smile and said: "Brother Cong, I am also concerned about chaos, I am afraid that you have taken a fork in the road, so I came to tell the old lady, don't misunderstand......" really let Jia Cong tell Ye Qingna, the Queen Mother said that she could also exile her for three thousand miles, she didn't feel that she was much more valuable than Concubine Shu and the second-grade waiter.
At this time, Jia Cong felt that Mrs. Wang's eyes were also over, and after he looked at it, he smiled brightly and said, "Since this is the case, Jia Cong thanks his uncle and wife for her concern." β
When Mrs. Wang heard this, her face softened, and she said to Li: "Brother Cong is a good boy, and the master often praises him for being very ambitious, and he will never do the rumored things again, and my sister-in-law is also very careful. β
Even if Jia's mother doesn't like Jia Cong anymore, in front of outsiders, when she sees Mrs. Wang saying that her child is good, she is still satisfied with her general knowledge.
Aunt Xue apologized at this time: "I really wronged Brother Cong, it is clear that my family's evil obstacle caused the trouble, and it is really not appropriate to let Brother Cong go to repay the favor." β
Jia Mu smiled: "They are all close relatives, what do they share with each other?" Don't let my aunt go. β
Mrs. Zhao, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Soap? Yesterday, the Qing girl in Yefu sent someone to give me a box of soap, I looked very good, it was more fragrant than the Western shipping, it looked good, and it was clean, isn't it just the way my brother smacked it? That's amazing! β
Jia Cong nodded and said, "It should be it, has it already begun to give birth?" I went back and looked for a few boxes to honor the old lady, my wife, and my sisters at home. β
He didn't ask why the Zhao family called Ye Qing a clear girl, he knew that the two brothers of the Shi family, Shi Nai and Shi Ding, were able to get the title of marquis, and they came to follow the martial prince to expand the territory.
After learning about Ye Qing's close relationship with Wuwangfu, it is not difficult to understand that she will be related to the Shi family. Of course, Zhao's shouting of a clear girl is really a big support. She was afraid that she had never met Ye Qingmian a few times......
Zhao praised again: "The soap transported from the West can be sold for one or two silver and a small square, ordinary people can't buy it with silver, and the overseas ships are coming, and the people of Yangzhou City directly collected all the soap, except for the rewards to each house, and then sold it out from the imperial store of the Ministry of Internal Affairs." The threshold has also been set, and our Hou Mansion is only a supply of six parties a month.
Can my brother find such a way, it is clear that he dug up a mountain of gold, and sent it out in order to help people repay favors?
Ouch! That's a big loss! β
At this time, Jia Cong somewhat understood some of the tastes.
The Shi family and the Wang family, I'm afraid they don't deal with it very much, and the Xue family is enough to choke, even with the Jia family, there shouldn't be much intimacy.
As a marquis under the command of King Wu, he has long lost the style of the original double waiting family over the years. The Wang family, which has become the confidant of the Son of Heaven, has gradually become a trend, and it is more borrowed from the Jia family......
There are more famous halls in this. However, the Zhao family is not complaining about Jia Cong, she is purely stirring up trouble......
Sure enough, when Aunt Xue heard this, her face turned red, with shame and anger, but if she was asked to tell her about the loss of contracting Jia Cong, she couldn't say it.
The Xue family is a businessman, even if it is exposed to it, Aunt Xue knows a lot of economic methods, so she naturally understands how much profit is hidden in this little soap.
Although the Xue family has silver, if they really want to cut out this piece to cover the compensation, they will also break their muscles and bones.
Although at this time, she didn't know how much benefit a small bar of soap was.
It's just that at this time, he was squeezed into the corner, if he didn't pay something, let a junior pay a big favor, he really couldn't get off the stage......
Looking at the play of several women on the high stage, Jia Cong only saw how sharp the battle between women was.
Jia Mu couldn't bear it anymore, and even waved her hand to Jia Cong and said: "Come on, the left and right are your reason, after reading so many books, you will deal with me, I can't talk about you." You go to the front, the lord is entertaining. I'm surprised too...... Why are you the one who has the most to do all day long? β
