At this time, the Rongguo Mansion in Beijing was already in chaos.

"My son, why are you so miserable!"

In Rongqing Hall, Jia Mu shouted in pain in front of Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng.

This is the third time today, and the first two times the Wang family was still a little moved in their hearts, but now there is only a lot of embarrassment left.

The second master of Zheng was just arrested by the official and put into the prison of the Criminal Department, and he was not convicted, and he was not even demoted from the official body, is it really good to howl at this time?

Fortunately, the old lady was the old feudal lord in the house, and the surrounding maids and the big and small Wang clans did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade and spend a lot of effort to calm down Jia's mother.

"Is Lian'er back, have you heard the news?"

Putting away the sadness on her face, Jia Mu immediately entered the state and directly asked Lian Er's movements.

"Old lady, the second master hasn't come back yet!"

Wang Xifeng replied carefully, but he was quite unhappy in his heart.

Is it easy for Lian Er to be awarded the command of the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division of the Sixth Grade, but the cadres in the house do not take this official position seriously, and still call Lian Er as a housekeeper.

As soon as there was something outside that needed the men in the house to come forward, he sent Lian Er out to do things, and he didn't want to think that this would affect Lian Er's normal work.

Originally, Wang Xifeng was not very much of such a small official as the commander of the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division, but Lian Er attached great importance to it, and told her that as long as there was no big mistake, she would definitely be promoted after three years.

And when the eldest lord left, he did not forget to solemnly warn, don't pull Lian Er's hind legs, once there is a problem with his official career, it is still the result of pulling the hind legs in the house, the eldest lord has made it very clear, he will use his relationship to let Lian Er go.

At this time, Wang Xifeng was frightened.

She doesn't want Lian Er to be released, with Lian Er's romantic temperament, don't let it go back when the time comes, there will be a few more foxes around her, and a few concubines, right?

As soon as he thought of this possibility, Wang Xifeng had an urge to kill, and he didn't dare to bother Lian Er more in foreign affairs, for fear of affecting this guy's official career.

The eldest lord is used to it, Wang Xifeng doesn't dare to take his own happiness and bet on whether the eldest lord will fulfill his promise.

When I returned to my parents' house not long ago, my uncle Wang Ziteng happened to be at home, and personally told her to honor her in-laws, saying that the eldest master was a capable person, and she should not be confused by rumors from the outside world.

Wang Xifeng could see that his uncle was amazed when he talked about the eldest master, and there was no fakeness at all.

This is very remarkable, she knows how proud her uncle is, when he used to evaluate the adult men of the four major families, only the Shuanghou of the Shi family could enter his eyes, but he didn't expect his uncle to speak so highly of the eldest master.

In this way, it strengthened the idea in her heart, and she must not drag Lian Er down because of the things in the house, otherwise the consequences will be worrying.

It's a pity that it's useless for her to be careful to maintain Lian Er, the old lady and the second wife in the house still treat Lian Er as a steward, and if there is an idea, Lian Er will come forward to deal with it, as if the Jia family has no man.

The old lady is okay, she is not familiar with the adult clansmen next to her, but the second wife has lost the management of the mansion, but she still asks Lian Er to come forward from time to time to do things, which makes it difficult for Wang Xifeng to end.

Co-authored Lian Er has completely become an errand manager for the second room?

No, as soon as the old lady asked Lian Er, the second wife, Mrs. Wang, couldn't wait to take the eye medicine: "It's a big matter related to my uncle, and Lian'er doesn't know what to do, it's really disappointing!" ”

Disappointing Nima!

Wang Xifeng was so angry that he almost scolded, Lian Er still has serious official business to do, and he only has so much time to rest to inquire about the second master, what else do you want?

The old lady had a gloomy face, patted the edge of the couch and said angrily: "When Lian'er comes back, immediately call him to see the old woman, my uncle doesn't know if something happens, and he has the same virtue as his old man!" ”

Wang Xifeng was depressed in his heart, but he didn't dare to blow up in front of Jia's mother, so he could only nod helplessly.

A hint of pride flashed in Mrs. Wang's eyes, she didn't care about the safety of the second master, but she trusted her second brother Wang Ziteng very much in her heart, thinking that as long as the prince freed his hand, he could at least ensure the safety of the second master, so she wasn't worried at all, but her face didn't show it.

Now that she can take the opportunity to block Lian Er and Dafang, Mrs. Wang doesn't mind falling into the well at all.

She wished that Wang Xifeng would be as chaotic as possible, if there was a problem with the order in the mansion, maybe she would have a chance to get involved in the management of the back house.

Everything, as long as the old lady relaxes!

Wang Xifeng didn't notice Mrs. Wang's sinister intentions, and returned to Rongxi Hall in a depressed mood, calling her confidant Ping'er to mumble for a while, asking her to go to the second gate to stare at it, as long as Lian Er came back, she would report immediately.

It's really a headache, and I don't know what happened to the second master of Zheng, the capital actually sent an official to arrest people directly, not to mention, and put them in the prison of the Criminal Department, which is the treatment that only has been committed for a serious crime.

Lian Eryi returned to the house in the dust, and got a notice from the housekeeper Lai Da at the door, asking him to go to Rongqing Hall immediately to report to the old lady.

Lying on the grass!

No matter how good his temper is, when he encounters such a thing, Lian Er can't help but scold in his heart.

He's almost tired of becoming a dog, okay, the old lady didn't say to let him come back and take a breath first, but even sent the housekeeper Lai Da at the gate to remind him, what does this mean?

Originally, there was a belly of fire in his heart, but at this time, the fire in his heart was even stronger, and even Lai Da didn't give a good face.

It's just a subordinate, and you really take yourself seriously?

At present, Lian Er is already a newcomer to officialdom, and he is slowly familiar with officialdom affairs, and his means and vision are naturally different from before.

Before he left the house to become an official, he was quite polite to Lai Da, after all, this is the old lady's henchman, don't you look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, it is also appropriate to give some face.

But now, how can Lian Er put the so-called big housekeeper in his eyes?

What about the Lai family's misalignment next to the power in the house, with just a little means, Lian Er can destroy the Lai family.

It's just that it's not necessary, and besides, it will cause turmoil in the house and the gains outweigh the losses.

When the mood was depressed, Ping'er immediately rushed out, grabbed Lian Er's hand and said hurriedly: "Second master, come with me, second grandma is in a hurry to see you!" ”

"Oh, did the second grandmother say something urgent?"

Lian Er's heart suddenly, he hurriedly followed and asked directly, and touched Ping'er's upright buttocks, with a faint evil smile on his face.

"Oh, second master, when is it, do you still have other thoughts?"

Ping'erqiao's face turned red, and she glanced at Lian Er angrily, and whispered: "After the second grandmother came back from Rongqing Hall, she seemed to be very unhappy!" ”

Lian Er's face froze, and he immediately knew what was going on.

It would be strange if Feng Lazi's mood could be better, and even his mood at this time was even more depressed.

The second master is really a waste, he was played by his little servant Qingke, and it is still not clear what happened, so that Lian Er, who is trying to see people, doesn't know what to say.

Later, when I found a relationship, it became clear that the second master had made a big mistake this time, and the task assigned by the imperial court to dredge the canal not only did not move at all, but the 100,000 taels of silver distributed had been used up.

It's inexplicable!

Looking at the second master's appearance, it doesn't look like a greedy for silver-hearted posture, Lian Er just knew it with a turn of his mind, and it is estimated that the second master was blinded by his subordinates.

Speaking of how simple it is to dredge the Tongzhou Canal section, the second master can still play such an incident, it is simply a fighting chicken in the waste, and there is no salvation at all.

"The second master should be careful, I'm afraid that the old lady wants you to find a way to rescue the second master!"

Seeing Lian Er, Wang Xifeng didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly reminded him; "My good aunt is fanning the flames on the side, and the old lady's anger is very strong, I'm afraid that if you are not careful, she may set herself on fire!"

"Thank you for the reminder, I know!"

Lian Er smiled bitterly, and suddenly felt nostalgic for the situation when the eldest master was in the mansion, and said in his mouth: "It would be nice if the eldest master was in the mansion, how dare the old lady toss the second master and me to death like this!" ”

As he spoke, he shook his head and rushed to Rongqing Hall to report, if he took a slow step, he was afraid that he would be a demon moth again.

This day, when is it a head?

"Lian'er, are you saying that the second child made a big mistake this time, and the tasks sent by the court have not made any progress, not to mention, all the money sent by the court has been spent?"

Jia Mu's face was gloomy and she was dissatisfied; "You should know what kind of character your second uncle is, he will never reach out for silver!"

"Old lady, I know it's useless, the key is that the officials above don't believe it!"

Lian Er smiled bitterly: "The top priority at the moment is to recover the silver that was spent, and at the same time, we must quickly complete the dredging of the Tongzhou Canal, otherwise it will be difficult to explain it!" ”

"It's easy to talk about silver, it must have been greedy by those villains who saw the money!"

Jia Mu sneered: "I dare to cause the second child to be arrested and put in the prison of the Criminal Department, and the old woman will definitely not spare them!" ”

Lian Er was silent, but unfortunately Jia Mu didn't let him go, and said directly: "As for the dredging work of the Tongzhou Canal, Lian'er might as well ask for leave to help your second uncle get things done, and it's not too late to come back to the office!" ”

A gleam flashed in Mrs. Wang's eyes on the side, and she echoed: "That's right, Lian'er, your second uncle is still suffering in the prison of the Criminal Department at this time, you can't watch it and not save it!" ”

In his heart, he was quite proud, his eldest son could only recuperate in the house, and he had no position, but Lian Er was already a real official of the sixth grade, this situation naturally made her very dissatisfied, if she could make Lian Er an official, then it would be good.

Looking at the old lady's face as a matter of course, as well as the second wife's face that couldn't be faked anymore, Lian Er only felt panicked in his heart, and was full of coldness, this is his own grandmother.

"Old lady, I really can't get out of my official business!"

Since you are so polite, although Lian Er didn't dare to turn his face directly with the old lady, he expressed his dissatisfaction with the assembly, right?

Ignoring the ugly faces of the old lady and the second wife, he said to himself: "Besides, how can anyone take over the imperial court project indiscriminately?" ”
