Chapter 527: Night Affair (2)
As night fell, lanterns were lit all over the Rongguo Mansion.
Wang Xifeng walked out of the East Courtyard with a pale face, saw Jia Lian waiting for her outside Jiao Yemen, and said hatefully: "You are also a man!" ”
Jia Lian's face flashed with shame, and then he became angry again: "What you did, you got the silver and didn't give me half of it, why should I suffer for you!" ”
Jia Lian is also angry. At the beginning, Ping'er found him and told him what was at stake, so that he must take responsibility for them when he was critical.
He didn't agree at first, but when he saw Ping'er's anxious appearance, he perfunctory a few words to her, and said that he would talk about it when the time came.
Just now he entered Mrs. Wang's house, and saw Wang Xifeng kneeling in front of Mrs. Wang, almost without thinking about it, he knew that Wang Xifeng must have been unable to bear it himself, so he pushed him out as a shield, and he was angry at that time. Facing the angry Mrs. Wang, he picked himself up almost without hesitation.
People are all interested in advantages and avoid disadvantages, and he doesn't feel that he has anything wrong, anyway, he didn't do it in the first place.
Who knew that Wang Xifeng was in a hurry, and he pointed at him in his words. He was also in a hurry, so he shook out his usual suspicions, guesses, and the details he remembered......
In the end, it is a person who lives under one roof, no matter how secret Wang Xifeng and Ping'er do, there will always be clues to be found.
So, Wang Xifeng originally wanted to find someone responsible, but he confirmed his sin in front of Mrs. Wang.
It is conceivable that after Jia Lian came out, what kind of Mrs. Wang she faced. It is also conceivable that she is resentful of Jia Lian at this time.
Phew, a wreckage who has no temperament!
"Yes, you are clean, what we do is evil, dirty, and we don't deserve to say it in front of the second master. Phew, don't call me disgusting, don't say you don't know what the scene has been in your house all these years, if it weren't for my moderation and careful calculations everywhere, this bit of family background would have been ruined a long time ago!
Why should I do such a conscienceless thing, it's not for your Jia family! Tell me, I'm a woman, where is there so much money to spend? Or is it that the dowry I brought from my mother's family back then was too small, I'm sorry for your Jia family? Back then, my dowry list was still there, you can go and check how much is left now, and it hasn't been added to this family.
In order to manage this family for you, I don't know how many people I have offended, and I don't know how many people have cursed me to die early, what am I for? Now it's just a little problem, asking you to cover it up for me, if you don't cover it up, forget it, and still accuse me in front of my wife. Tell me, are you a man or am I a man? ”
Jia Lian's face was flushed, and it was not obvious in the dark night, and he was annoyed and angry: "If you don't accuse me first, can I say those words in front of my wife?" Why bother to say this, the prestige of your second grandmother Lian has spread all over the two mansions over the years, where can I compare to you? The Jia family didn't treat you badly!
You say you're the housekeeper for me, but where is the money I can use in my hand in case of you? I dare to say that at this time, you can take out tens of thousands of taels of silver without saying anything in your hand, it is clear that you are greedy for silver, and you are changing your way to make money outside, and you also say that it is for our Jia family, if it is really for our Jia family, I haven't really seen a single entry in the house from your hands over the years.
You say I'm a man, and I should take care of you. But have you ever seen a man like me? I'm also a son of a public house, all these years, don't talk about aunts in the house, not even serious concubines, nominally a Ping'er, and you pinched to death, you can't touch it at all. Say, Where have I done you wrong? ”
The husband and wife quarreled like this, and they couldn't stop as soon as the gate was opened.
Wang Xifeng felt like he was going to be angry to death. On weekdays, she knew that Jia Lian had a grudge against her, but Jia Lian never dared to say it to her face.
"Okay, don't you say I didn't know you had such a big grievance! You say I control you tightly, but how can I really control you? You touch your conscience and ask, over the years, have you stolen less? Is there still one less bed for the fox you climbed?
I just won't let you bring it home, lest the old lady and the old lady get angry. Well, since you have said so, from now on, I will never care about you again, you can hook up with whoever you like, and marry whoever you like, even if you see that I am not going well and want to divorce me and marry another, I will never say anything else, take Ping'er, and the two of us will go back to the Wang family! ”
Wang Xifeng said, already leaning on the door hole and crying. No matter what, she is also a woman, and what happened today is beyond her bearing.
Jia Lian saw that Wang Xifeng was crying, a little overwhelmed, and said tentatively: "Don't cry, let the maids hear, it's not good to be known by the wife......"
"Get out, find your friend, anyway, I'm sorry for you, let you suffer such a big grievance, don't bother with me!"
Jia Lian was silent for a long time, then turned around and left.
Seeing Jia Lian's figure walking outside in the hazy tears, Wang Xifeng's heart became even more sad, and for a while, thousands of emotions surged into her heart, and she didn't know what was blocked in her throat, which made her cough violently.
In fact, some maids had already discovered them, but when they saw Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian arguing, they didn't dare to get close, so they all walked away, so that Wang Xifeng coughed for a long time and no one came forward.
......
Wang Xifeng has never been so uncomfortable, the pressure from the Yinziqian incident and the complete separation from Jia Lian made her feel that she had no expectations in life. ran all the way back, drove out all the people who were waiting inside and outside, and cried alone in the quilt for a long time until Ping'er came back.
Ping'er is a caring maid, and when others dare not enter the house, she brings a basin of water and takes a towel into the house.
"Second grandmother......?"
After screaming in such a whisper two or three times, Wang Xifeng finally reacted, sat up, and let her wait to wash her face.
"Second grandma, what's wrong?"
Wang Xifeng turned her head to look at Ping'er, Ping'er was stunned for a while, she had never seen Wang Xifeng like this. A pair of Danfeng eyes, but they have only been seen for more than half an hour, and they are swollen, and the desperate look in them is so obvious.
Fortunately, Wang Xifeng quickly reined in that demeanor and asked, "How is Wang'er?" ”
Ping'er was sent by her to investigate the situation.
Ping'er took a deep breath and said, "The injury is very serious, Lang Zhong said, it is likely that he will not be able to stand up in the future." ”
Wang Xifeng's eyes narrowed, but it was difficult for her current state of mind to care about anything else, so she only said, "Did he say anything else?" ”
Ping'er said: "It's hard for him to even be sober, I waited there for a long time before he woke up for a while, and he couldn't say anything else, only ......"
"Just say what?"
"He only said, 'The second master knows', and didn't say anything else, I don't want to say it, he seems to hate me......" Ping'er's voice was a little puzzled.
"Second Master knows? What does that mean? ”
"I don't know, probably to say, the second master must know something, perhaps, he knows that it is our ......" Ping'er hesitated to guess.
Wang Xifeng thought for a while and made a judgment: "That's right, Brother Qing must have known, that's why he beat Wang'er like this, so Wang'er didn't confess to us." I said, how could Wang'er be so loyal, I see! ”
Ping'er nodded and said: "If Wang'er doesn't say it, it must be the second master who didn't let him say it in order to protect his grandmother, but why did he beat Wang'er like this, and drove their family to Nanjing to guard Zhuangzi?" ”
Wang Xifeng sneered: "He's knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger to warn us." Oh, it's hard for him to look up to us like that! ”
Ping'er thought about it, if this is the case, then I don't know if Jia Qing will deal with her. She's the same as Wang'er, she's a minion......
"Ping'er, help me clean up and accompany me over...... Forget it, I'll take a shower first. ”
"Where is the second grandmother going?"
"Go to Dongfu."
"What are you doing in Dongfu so late?"
"What to do...... Wang Xifeng smiled coldly: "Of course it's revenge!" ”
"Grandma, you ......"
