Chapter 8: Lian'er, what do you think?
When Jia Zheng heard Jia Lian's words, he suddenly stopped. Everyone in the hall also looked at Jia Lian with some surprise.
To tell the truth, although in Jia Lian's eyes, Jia Zheng is nothing. But Jia Zheng, who has been accumulating prestige in Rongguo Mansion for a long time, is very powerful in the eyes of Sanchun, Baoyu, Jia Lian and others.
Even because of Jia's mother's partiality, even Jia Yu would not stop Jia Zheng when he was obviously embarrassed.
"Is there anything else wrong with Lian'er?" Mother Jia felt that Jia Lian was a little special today, and she couldn't say what was special. However, she knew that if the situation was allowed to develop, the prestige of the second son in this mansion would probably be greatly damaged.
Therefore, she can only deal with this eldest grandson whose temperament has changed greatly after getting married.
Jia Mu looked at Wang Xifeng a little strangely, could it be that this daughter of the Wang family is really so powerful.
Jia Mu's performance was expected by Jia Lian, from Jia Mu's point of view, if she wants to maintain her supreme dominance in Rongguo Mansion, she must maintain the unjust position of the second room.
Only when the big house holds the title and the second room controls the family business, can the old lady be in the middle and balance.
I have to say, although not very clever. But this old lady did touch the threshold of the emperor's art.
Jia Lian calmly gave Wang Xifeng, who was worried, a reassuring look, and naturally saluted Jia's mother.
"I shouldn't have bothered the old lady Qingxiu, a little thing, I will be fine if I deal with it. But I didn't expect ........."
Speaking of this, Jia Lian paused, looked at Mrs. Wang and continued: "It is said that the second wife is a bodhisattva, it seems that it is true, these slaves are used to forgetting who is the master." ”
Mrs. Wang's face turned blue suddenly, although she didn't say it explicitly, Jia Lian's words were obviously accusing Mrs. Wang of not governing the family strictly.
Just as Mrs. Wang was about to stand up and ask for guilt, Jia Mu calmly stretched out her hand to press her.
"Everyone knows what kind of character Baoyu has, and it is because of this that she plans to hand over the home to Feng Yatou to take care of. But it is said that you will not let you.
Besides, that's Baoyu's grandmother, a family like ours, such an old man should be respected. ”
looked at Mrs. Wang and the others below, and the old lady said the right voice. Jia Lian pursed his lips disdainfully.
"That old pious woman is a milk treasurer. But Baoyu was not born by her, nor was she raised. Where did you get such a great credit, life is more expensive than the master. To take care of her, give her more silver, arrange less work, and even let her be honored. But she can't be made to think that she has become a second wife. ”
Since an old slave and maid in the second room dared not to give themselves face, Jia Lian did not plan to save face in the second room.
Sure enough, as soon as she said this, Jia's mother's face immediately darkened: "Lian'er, what kind of are you talking about, boss, that's how you educate your children." ”
Jia Yu couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he saw the fire coming towards him. Originally, when he came to Rongqing Hall this time, Jia Yu didn't plan to do anything to Jia Lian. I just want to come and see the excitement.
Although Jia Lian even slapped Dafang's face together. But it's just a companion room for Mrs. Xing, it's nothing. Jia Lian wants to fight back against the old lady and the second room, which is the most important thing.
You must know that although Jia Yu doesn't look down on Yingchun's cowering temperament, he doesn't care much about this concubine's daughter. But after all, she is the only daughter of the Rongguo Mansion Changfang, and these people are too much.
Seeing that Jia Yu was about to speak, Jia Lian hurriedly interrupted in advance. For Jia Yu, a guy who has not achieved enough things and has more than enough failures, Jia Lian does not dare to let him interfere.
After all, the current big house is too weak.
"Old lady, why do you have to embarrass the master. Am I not right? No matter how much credit Mama Li has, it is not a reason for her to rely on the old and sell the old and take a big deal in front of her master.
The second sister is the eldest daughter of the head of my Rongguo Mansion and the granddaughter of the ancestor of Rongguo, how can I allow a few cheap maids to be bullied. I finally got some good things for my second sister, and those bastards in the kitchen dared not give it. It can be seen what kind of bullying the second sister usually becomes.
Old lady, I am the brother of my second sister, I want an explanation, is it wrong? The second wife is in charge of housekeeping, shouldn't she give me an explanation? ”
As soon as Jia Lian's words came out, everyone in the Rongqing Hall changed color. Jia's mother also faced this eldest grandson for the first time.
Mother Jia looked at the heroic eldest grandson in front of her, and her thoughts suddenly drifted a little.
At the beginning, because Jia Daishan, the Duke of Rongguo, was fighting abroad all the year round, she married into the mansion for several years before she finally became pregnant.
At that time, Jia Daishan was named the Duke of Rongguo, in charge of the Military Aircraft Department, and had the power to lead the world's soldiers and horses. As his wife, Mrs. Rongguo, of course, pregnancy is a happy event.
Even the Holy Ancestor Emperor of that year personally issued a holy decree to take the word Enhou for the eldest son of Daishan, and its meaning is self-evident.
Who would have thought that the morning sickness in ten months of pregnancy was almost never broken, and Jia Daishan was out on the expedition, and the young Jia mother was at a loss. On the day of delivery, dystocia almost killed her.
After being born, the young Jia Yu was even more naughty, so he was not liked by Jia's mother.
Later, Emperor Shengzu negotiated peace with the Manchu Qing Dynasty and recuperated, Jia Daishan was able to stay in Shenjing City for a long time, and they had their second son Jia Zheng and third daughter Jia Min. They were all born smoothly and well-behaved and obedient. Jia's mother didn't like Jia Yu even more.
It seems that there were times when Yu'er was so high-spirited.
However, Jia's mother didn't feel sorry for Jia Yu, you know, because of the stubbornness of the eldest son Jia Yu, Jia Daishan once had the intention of abolishing the son and passing on Jia Zheng.
It was Jia's mother's repeated persuasion that kept Jia Yu's title. Although the persuasion at the beginning was also because the second son was dedicated to learning and wanted to take the road of the imperial examination, he would worship the prime minister.
Jia Mu's silence made the atmosphere in Rongqing Hall a little solemn. The one with the most pressure present was Mrs. Wang.
Jia Lian has already pointed his nose and accused Mrs. Wang of not governing the family strictly and conniving at Diao slaves to bully the master. Mrs. Wang asked herself that she could not afford such a crime. The most important thing is that the matter has become so big that it is actually because of Mrs. Wang herself.
Originally, Jia Lian's spearhead was only aimed at a few minions. Although it swept the face of the second room, the foundation was not moved. Can ...... now
When Mrs. Wang married into the Jia family, Jia Yu's wife, who was Jia Lian's biological mother, was still alive. Mrs. Xing entered the door much later than her.
So she knows Jia Mu's methods better than anyone else. Now Jia Mu's silence shocked Mrs. Wang.
Looking at Jia Zheng, who was sitting with a blue face, Mrs. Wang sighed, knowing that she couldn't count on her. I had to stand up on my own and ask for sin.
Seeing Mrs. Wang kneeling down in the hall, including Jia Lian, all the juniors stood up. Jia Baoyu and Jia Tanchun even knelt down with Mrs. Wang.
"My daughter-in-law has been devoted to Buddha all these years, and she has been a little slack in family affairs. I didn't expect such a thing to happen, so that the second girl suffered such a big grievance.
The daughter-in-law also has a spring and autumn season, and she has to take care of Baoyu, so she really doesn't have the energy to take care of the house. Ask the old lady to choose another merit. ”
Jia Mu woke up from her contemplation when Madame Wang knelt down. She knew that this daughter-in-law had misunderstood. However, she didn't intend to explain, but asked Jia Lian.
"Lian'er, what do you think?"
