Chapter 498: Tough
On the Hall of Honor.
Hearing Jia Cong's words, Jia Mu was furious, laughed angrily, and said, "This is the sage book you read?" If you marry your husband and die from your son, then my old woman asks you, where is your filial piety? ”
Jia Cong didn't seem to see Jia's mother's anger, and he replied, "Go back to the old lady...... Zi said: 'The first king had the most virtuous way, so as to obey the world, the people were harmonious, and there was no complaint from top to bottom. What do you know? Zeng Zi avoided the table and said: "How can you know if you are not sensitive?" The son said: "Husband filial piety, the foundation of virtue, and the place of teaching." Sit back, I speak you. The body is skinned, and the parents who receive it dare not destroy it, and the beginning of filial piety is also. Standing up and doing the way, making a name for yourself in future generations, in order to show your parents, and the end of filial piety. Husband filial piety, starting from the family, in the matter of the king, and finally standing.
Cong has been taught by saints since he was a child, and he dare not forget the foundation of his life. Therefore, he loves the body and does not dare to destroy it, which starts with filial piety. Older, study hard, and gain fame. Because of the family, he abandoned the pen and followed Rong, was loyal and respectful to the king, and made meritorious service in the nine sides. Now he is the champion and famous in the world to show his parents.
This is Jia Cong's filial piety. ”
Seeing that Jia Mu looked at him in a daze, her eyes were blank, but Jia Cong didn't care, he continued: "Old lady, Cong thinks that foolishness and filial piety are not filial piety. In Jiangnan, my husband and I suggested several times that Zhen Yingjia, the head of the Zhen family, should follow the general trend and obey the new law. Although Zhen Yingjia was moved, she couldn't convince Mrs. Zhen. Finally attracted the disaster of raiding the house! This filial piety is filial piety? Foolish filial piety! ”
This shocked the whole house!
Mrs. Wang and the others all gasped, and behind the curtain, Baochai and the others were even more shocked.
Who would have thought that Jia Cong would dare to speak to Jia Mu like this?
I didn't expect that the huge Zhen family, so magnificent, would die because of Mrs. Zhen......
When Jia Mu heard this, her whole body trembled with anger, and she said excitedly: "Could it be that the old woman, I stopped you from doing the new law of Nalao Shizi?" I don't know when the Grange at home was exchanged for the Zhuangzi of Heiliao by you, and you still have the face to harm your Jia family? ”
Jia Cong shook his head when he heard this: "Cong is not a metaphor for the old lady, when it comes to this matter, the old lady is indeed much better than Mrs. Zhen." The old lady never asked about the outside world. The reason why Cong said this was just to tell the old lady that blind obedience is not real filial piety. ”
Jia's mother coaxed angrily: "This is strange, obedience is not great filial piety, is it possible that disobedience is great filial piety?" I don't care about you Confucius or Mencius, my family has always governed the family with benevolence and filial piety, and the outside is as you toss, but inside, you have to listen to us. You don't want to coax me with the words in those bookbags, but I know that even in the palace, the emperor is in charge of the front court, and the queen is in charge of the harem. This is called the male protagonist outside and the female protagonist inside. Hum! If you want to follow your heart and let us all bow to you, I advise you not to have this sweet dream. ”
When Jia Cong heard this, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he was not angry at all.
Maybe an opponent with a brain is better than a stunned opponent......
He looked at Mother Jia and nodded: "What the old lady said makes sense, as long as it doesn't involve the previous matters, it is naturally up to the old lady and the wife to say it." ”
Jia Mu hurriedly asked, "What the eldest lady said, is it the previous thing?" ”
Jia Congqi said: "Cong is not the person in front? ”
Jia Mu: "......"
Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue looked at each other, and they both saw the smiles in each other's eyes.
God, there is really a person in the family who dares to go toe-to-toe with the old lady.
But the old lady herself probably didn't notice that she had acquiesced to this state of affairs.
Of course, when it comes to Jia Cong's status, she doesn't acquiesce, and she also makes herself ugly.
Jia's mother has a valuable status and a noble background, but even if Jia's mother is the father, he is only a bowler, not as valuable as the champion Hou.
In fact, if you think about it, it is not a good thing to have someone who can stand up to the court......
However, on the side, Jia's mother's mother's family, Zhu Shi, the wife of Baoling Hou Shi Nai, had something to say: "What my brother said is interesting, the marriage of children is a major event, shouldn't we follow the orders of my parents and the words of the matchmaker?" ”
Jia Cong looked at her lightly and said, "What Mrs. said is that the marriage of children should naturally follow the orders of their parents, but the eldest wife did not discuss it with her uncle's family. As for the words of the matchmaker, it is even more unheard of. ”
After the curtain, seeing that Jia Cong "refused to obey the death", and even did not hesitate to collide with Jia's mother head-on, Baochai's heart was about to melt, and his eyes looked at Jia Cong like water.
She thought that Jia Cong did this all for her......
Mrs. Zhu had something to say, she said: "Isn't this a matter of urgency, besides, not only this matter, but also things related to the family, what the old lady says is what it is, and what is inside and outside?" This is not an act of filial piety. And the old lady said before that the Bowling Mansion is now struggling to make a living, so she relies on a little income from the grange to survive. But now Prime Minister Ning, who is black-hearted in the court, has even taken away this idea. Fortunately, I heard that when you come back, you will have to take care of this matter, and my aunt and grandmother said that you should leave a hand for the Bowling Mansion. People who commit crimes still pay attention to kissing and hiding each other, not to mention our little thing? What did my brother say about this? Don't you listen to what the old lady says? ”
When Jia Cong heard this, he looked at the mean-looking and aggressive man in the hall, and asked curiously, "Did Madam fall asleep just now?" Didn't I hear the old lady just say that she is different from the confused lady of the Zhen family who caused the Zhen family to raid the house, the old lady only cares about the inside and doesn't ask about the outside things? Besides, I, Jia Cong, do the things entrusted by the emperor, and it is your turn to be a woman and a Taoist family to point fingers? Also, in this limelight, if the Bowling Marquis Mansion is tired of living and wants to die, no one will stop him, but if he wants to drag my Jia family to die together, I will not accompany him. ”
After that, without waiting for the opportunity for the angry Zhu family to cry, Jia Cong said to the gloomy Jia Mu: "At this juncture, even several princes of the clan have been circled, and the deep relationship between the Zhen family and the Heavenly family has still been raided and questioned, if the Baoling Marquis Mansion still can't think about it, Jia Cong has nothing to say." ”
When Jia Mu heard this, she was half stunned in her heart, and after glancing at Jia Cong fiercely, she said to Zhu Shi, who was crying with a twisted face: "Okay? You don't listen to your sister-in-law's persuasion, the second brother advises him, but he doesn't listen, and I don't listen...... Now that you've got good words, are you comfortable? When you go back, you just tell Brother Nai'er the original mathematics of his words, and say that people don't recognize you as a poor relative, and you don't have a shy face to come to others. When your head falls off, people will hide far away in advance, afraid of splashing blood, and you still expect people to save you in front of my bad old woman? Bah! Stop daydreaming about your mother! ”
When Zhu heard this, his face was aggrieved, but he could only leave angrily if he could say anything better.
Zhao sighed and took his leave.
Mrs. Wang Ziteng originally looked at Jia Cong very unpleasantly, her second son Wang Li and Ning Zechen's son Ning Yuanze designed to kill Jia Cong together, intending to seize Jia Cong's property in Qinxiangyuan, and was killed after the defeat, how could the Li family not hate Jia Cong to the bone?
It's not been a few years.
At this time, when he got up to say goodbye and left, he "kindly" persuaded Jia's mother: "I heard earlier that this brother in the big house is amazing. But I heard that this brother was abused in the big house at the beginning, and it was the old lady who asked him to come over and raise him here, I thought he could be more respectful to the old lady, tsk......"
Before he finished his words of sowing discord, he heard Jia Cong say indifferently: "Li, last year, you conspired with your son Wang Li to plot against me, and wanted to put me to death. But if you think that the Jia family is all fools, then you have the wrong idea. For my wife's sake, I give you one last piece of advice. With his wife, aunt, and second sister-in-law, the Wang family and the Jia family should have both prospered and lost their grandchildren. Nowadays, they are all in high waves, and it is difficult for all major governments to protect themselves. The Jia family and the Wang family should live in a low-key manner, and after this catastrophe, they will talk about other things. If you are still in the middle at this time, trying to sow discord and vent your anger for your son, there is only one way out. Taishang said: There is no way to be lucky or bad, but people invite themselves. I hope you are doing it yourself. ”
When Li heard this, a face stepped away, looking at Jia Cong who was shocked and angry, his face was hot, and he wanted to refute something, but Mrs. Wang on the side couldn't stand it, and said, "Sister-in-law, go home first." ”
As soon as Li heard it, she knew that Mrs. Wang had also seen through her thoughts, she didn't reflect on her shallow plans, she only hated Jia Cong's evil intentions, and even saw through such clever schemes.
After glaring at Jia Cong fiercely, Li retreated.
After she left, Mrs. Wang smiled bitterly and said to Jia's mother: "Let the old lady see the joke." ”
Mother Jia didn't like the Li family to play right and wrong and make the Jia family ugly, but at this time, she didn't accuse Mrs. Wang of anything, but glared at Jia Cong and said, "Okay, your champion Hou's majesty is amazing!" The Jia family has these relatives, you can clean them up! Catch Ming'er and my wife away together, and there are no relatives who are in the way of your Jia family! ”
Jia Cong was silent for a while, and then said, "The old lady should understand, if Cong didn't treat them as relatives, how could she say those vigilant words?" I am not a man of many tongues.
Your Majesty gave the Son of Heaven a sword and me, and ordered me to punish the evil in the court.
If it weren't for the old lady and his wife, Cong, how could he tolerate their disrespectful remarks?
If it weren't for the presence of the old lady and the lady, I would have made them understand that I was no longer the sin they had in their impression of begging in that room and being insulted and trampled on.
I am now the first-class champion of Daqian, you are more than the prince of the country, and the woman dares to humiliate her? ! ”
This is brilliant and powerful.
And the whole house was shocked......
Jia Mu lowered her brows, panting lightly and staring at Jia Cong, feeling weak for a while.
When he reached Jia Cong's status, he was such a cold bastard who didn't know pure filial piety, and Jia's mother really couldn't do anything about him.
said a thousand ways and ten thousand, as long as he didn't get to the point where he was inferior to a beast, it would be impossible for her to go to the palace to sue the royal court and sue him for disobedience.
A sense of frustration arose, and Jia Mu waved her hand and said, "Let's go, you have read a belly of books, all of which are the truth for us." Now that you have also become a marquis, you don't take us seriously anymore, you go to be your champion Hou and your loyal minister, don't come in and make trouble with us, how can I withstand this kind of trouble, and I don't have to come in to settle the province in the morning and dusk...... There is only one thing I warn you, don't bully Baoyu, otherwise I won't give up with you! ”
When Jia Cong heard this, his face was helpless, he glanced at Mrs. Wang, and saw that she was also looking at him with gentle eyes, so he smiled slightly bitterly, and Mrs. Wang nodded with him, signaling her to understand.
Jia Cong said: "The old lady can rest assured that Baoyu, Brother Huan and I are like flesh and blood, and there is no need to say anything about this matter...... There is another thing, when I was in Yangzhou, because some people from the Lin family in Suzhou bullied Sister Lin when my uncle was in a coma. Later, when my uncle woke up, I discussed with him to see if I would move the Lin family to the capital in the future. My uncle refused to come because of his aunt's affairs, but in the end, he decided to go to Beijing because he was worried that Sister Lin would be bullied again in the future. It's just that my uncle said that he had no reason to live in Jia's house. I told her that the old lady felt sorry for her granddaughter, and she would never let Sister Lin live outside. In the end, it was agreed that Aunt Lin should live in the front house of the East Mansion, and have his own servants and maidservants of the Lin family to serve him. Sister Lin still lives here with the old lady and goes to Dongfu to visit every day. In another month, Sister Lin will come back. ”
Hearing this, before Jia Mu could say anything, Baoyu ran out of the back tent and said happily: "Really? Sister Lin really came back in a month? ”
Baoyu came out, and the others followed, and the outsiders left and right.
Jia Cong nodded to Baoyu and said, "I'm back, and now I'm taking care of Uncle Lin on the boat." Baoyu, Uncle Lin is unconscious now, it's hard to say whether he can wake up, most of them can't wake up. Before Aunt Lin fell into a coma, he asked me to take care of Sister Lin. You and Sister Lin are both the top of the old lady's heart, don't bully her in the future, of course, I also told her not to let her be angry with you again. ”
When Baoyu heard this, she smiled a little shyly, but then she came back and felt a little wrong, a little confused, as if something was wrong......
Jia Cong patted him on the shoulder and didn't say anything more, so that he had the opportunity to meet Li Kun and the sisters in the family in turn.
Baochai was in the last place, and after the two looked at each other for a few breaths, Jia Cong asked, "Sister Bao, are you okay?" ”
Baochai bowed her head slightly, and her eyes became more and more gentle like water.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Jia Cong guessed that it must be because of Aunt Xue, and after the two looked at each other for two more breaths, he diverted the topic and asked, "What about Sister Ping'er?" She was in a hurry to come back to accompany her second sister-in-law, and she refused to stay in Jiangnan for a day, why hadn't she seen her before? ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the Rongqing Hall.
Baochai, Xiangyun, Tanchun and others looked stunned, and Baoyu was even more ashamed and lowered his head.
Seeing this, Jia Cong's eyes narrowed slightly, looked at Baochai and said softly: "Sister Bao, where is Sister Ping'er?" ”
Baochai saw him jump like this, and hurriedly said: "Brother Cong, don't worry, Ping'er is fine, it's in Dongfu!" ”
If Baochai had said this before, Jia Cong would naturally not ask anything more, but the atmosphere in Rongqing Hall was so strange at this moment, how could he not think about it, so he wondered: "It's so busy here, why didn't she come to help, how could she be in Dongfu?" ”
Baochai was sluggish again, only gave him a look with his eyes, and persuaded him to go down and say again, at this time, I heard Jia's mother above say angrily: "I drove the girl who didn't know how to be respectful, and she was not allowed to enter the door half a step in the future!" She dared to instruct her girls to push Baoyu to her head, and it was good that I didn't let anyone kill her! ”
Jia Cong looked at Jia's mother with deep eyes, and asked softly, "Old lady, did you make someone beat her?" ”
Baochai couldn't see that Jia Cong was really angry, lest the misunderstanding get deeper, and hurriedly said: "No, no, there is no fighting, Ping'er is fine...... The old lady is the most compassionate, just to scare Xiao Qi, how can she really let people fight? Besides, the master is here too......"
Hearing this, Jia Cong nodded, and did not look at Jia Mu who was snorting coldly, but looked at Baoyu who was worried on the side, and suddenly smiled, and the laughing Baoyu shuddered in his heart, and he said, "Baoyu, how did the master teach you?" ”
Baoyu was simply embarrassed, and said with guilt on her face: "Jia Cong, I'm ...... I really don't have bad intentions, really, I just thought Xiao Qi was ......"
Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang above narrowed their eyes and looked down carefully.
Jia Cong looked at Baoyu for a moment, and Baochai's nervous heart next to her was about to jump out, she was not nervous about Baoyu, but she was afraid that Jia Cong would really have trouble with her family, so it would be bad for Jia Cong......
Tanchun and Xiangyun also wanted to speak and stopped on the side, trying to persuade Jia Cong.
Fortunately, Jia Cong only patted Baoyu's arm, which was flushed and full of guilt, and said, "I understand your temperament, you like little girls the most, but you are never ridiculous." It's just that I still have to advise you that some habits should be changed. Otherwise, with the old man's square character, one day, when the old lady can't take care of you for a while, you will fall into the hands of the old man again...... Good brother, ask for your own blessings. ”
After that, he no longer looked at the depressed Baoyu, and after saluting with Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue and others in the high hall, he nodded with Baochai, Tanchun, Xiangyun and others, and Jia Cong turned around and left.
Here, he's probably rarely coming in the future.
However, with today's tough conversation, Jia Mu and others should also understand in the future that he is no longer what he used to be......
When I won't point fingers at him anymore.
Out of Rongqing Hall, it was already dark, and it was already past the hour.
The night of Chang'an in February was quite cold, and after Jia Cong glanced at the sky, he strode towards Dongfu.
