Chapter 59 Xifeng's assistant to Ning Guofu, come to take advantage of the trend to meet Fangyuan [Part 1]

Turning around, it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it was the sixth day that Qin Keqing stopped his coffin. Due to this sudden funeral, the Rongning and Ning Mansions did not even celebrate the New Year's Day.

However, the scene presented by Ningguo Mansion is more than ten times more lively than that of the ordinary New Year Festival.

According to the instructions of his mother Xu, Laishun rushed to Ningguo Mansion before dawn.

In addition to the corner gate that is always open, there is another big door facing the street. A pair of vermilion red gold-selling signs are entrusted in front of the door, with the letter "Dragon Monkey King Guard, the Imperial Guard of the Purple Gold Road in the Inner Court."

Opposite the door, close to the south wall, two large chanting platforms were erected, and there were many chanting documents hanging like a stadium of monks and Taoists.

Looking further in, thirty or forty deacons were arranged on both sides of the door, and behind them there was a green musician in green clothes. Every time the time was right, the mourning sounds shook the sky.

Obviously, this is Huifang Garden where Qin Keqing corpses were stopped.

Because it was not yet dawn and the New Year was coming, there were no guests in front of the door.

Lai Shun was hesitating. Should he go in through the newly opened gate or walk through the original corner gate? Suddenly someone behind him shouted: "Isn't this Lai Shun's business?"

With just one sound, five or six deacons were looking around in Huifang Garden.

Obviously, Laishun also made some name in Ningguo Mansion because of the incident of rescuing Jiao Da in public.

However, this was long since Laishun expected. He ignored the deacons, but turned around and looked in the sound, and saw a young couple pulling and pushing not far away.

Lai Shunyin said in a whisper: "Who am I? It turns out that it is Mr. Huang and Grandma Huang from Donghutong."

The young couple stopped pulling. Jia Huang led his wife forward a few steps. He looked at the deacons suspiciously, then bowed his hands and smiled, "Come and take care of the New Year's wishes."

"Mr. Huang's New Year's Good Luck."

When both sides saw the New Year ceremony, Jia Huang pretended to be curious: "Come in charge and came to Ningguo Mansion early in the morning. Could it be that something happened?"

Why is this guy a little sarcastic?

When I went to his restaurant before, I was obviously very polite.

Lai Shun glanced at him suspiciously and said aloud: "Because our second grandma took on the funeral errands, she specially ordered me to come and do errands."

After a pause, he added: "I will also patrol the various places for my second grandma to see if there are any omissions."

As soon as the next sentence came out, the deacons who were protruding their heads immediately retreated back to the yard and arranged in a regular manner on both sides.

Even Jia Huang in front of him showed something strange on his face, and he was so timid that he couldn't speak.

When Jia Huang encouraged Ni Er to make things difficult for Laishun, he failed, so he failed to show off his new methods to his wife. Although he did not dare to underestimate Laishun anymore, he felt a grudge in his heart.

Later, I heard that Lai Shun had a bad old man who had detested Master Zhen from Ningguo Mansion, and I saw Lai Shun hesitate and wander outside the Ningguo Mansion.

Jia Huang thought Laishun must have been suppressed, so he had no choice but to "subjugate" and so he shouted Laishun's name regardless of his wife's obstruction.

This was a joke that I wanted to look Shun, but Lai Shun not only did not lose power, but also took power in Ningguo Mansion.

Such a change was beyond Jia Huang's expectations, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

When his wife, Jin, saw this, was even more angry.

She secretly complained that her husband insisted on provoking Lai's family, but forgot that the one who forced Jia Huang to attack Lai Shun was actually her grandmother Huang herself.

Seeing that her husband was speechless, the expression on the other side became more and more suspicious. Jin no longer cared about the husband and wife following each other, and there was a difference between men and women.

He stepped forward and smiled and said, "Because sister-in-law Zhen's old illness relapsed, I was worried about chaos in the mansion yesterday. Now that my second grandma can come forward to deal with the funeral, we relatives have the backbone."

Then he made a connection and said, "Your Brother Huang has also received some idle chores, and I'm afraid you will take more care of you at that time."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

Because of her clever mouth, she didn't see anything wrong with her, and she just thought that Jia Huang was just rash.

Thinking that Grandma Huang was accustomed to being involved in escorting, she asked her about the women in charge of the East Mansion and where the party was recently gathered.

"Sister-in-law Zhen has not been able to manage the director for a few days, so how can she get the whole place?"

Jin thought for a while and said, "But I heard that your second grandmother went to Baoxia Hall next to Neiyi Gate alone yesterday, and she might have picked it up there today."

Lai Shun asked clearly where the Neiyi Gate was located, then he said goodbye to the two of them and hurriedly entered the mansion from the Kok Gate.

As soon as he left, Jia Huang complained as if he had taken off his heavy burden: "Don't everyone say that he offended Mr. Zhen? Why did he even come to Ningguo Mansion to take charge of the affairs?"

"What do you think?!"

Jin sneered, "Who doesn't know that the west wind overwhelms the east wind? Feng Lazi is the leader of the West Mansion. Uncle Bianzhen also wants to give in. How could he hate her for a slave?"

He paused and said to himself: "Look at this situation, it is the right thing to do to curry favor with Xifu in the future. Especially when I heard that the family gave me a way of wealth to my second grandma, it attracted the Wang family and Xue family to buy shares."

"If our family can also get involved, wouldn't it be better to live in that nameless shop?"

"You are afraid you're blindly thinking about money!"

Jia Huangyin laughed and said, "I heard that even the eldest master and his wife in the West Mansion wanted to get involved, but they were blocked by their second grandmother. No matter how much you curry favor with her, can you still be stronger than her parents-in-law?"

"How can this be the same?"

Jin Shi glanced at her husband and pondered: "Mr. She wants big heads, we only want some small profits - Besides, we may not have to take advantage of the second grandma."

As he said that, he looked at the corner gate thoughtfully.

…………

But when Laishun found the Neiyi Gate of Ningguo Mansion, he saw that the Ningguo Mansion had already reached most of the manager.

There was a housekeeper in his fifties, standing alone at the front with his hands behind his back, and he was quite arrogant without anger.

It was not until Sao saw Laishun that he put on his majesty and greeted him with a smile: "You are Laishun, right? As expected, he was so mighty and arrogant that he was just right to suppress these lazy guys in our mansion!"

Seeing this attitude and tone, Laishun still didn’t know the other party’s identity?

He was immediately alert and stepped forward to greet him and said, "Mr. Lai praised me. I just do some errands and chores. Those who can really take the lead must be someone as respected as you."

This person is naturally Lai Da’s younger brother, Lai Sheng, the chief steward of Ningguo Mansion.

"Don't be humble."

Lai Sheng smiled and waved his hand, "My brother has often praised you recently, saying that this Rongguo Mansion will be counted on you to hold on in the future."

Lai Da praised himself and said that he would definitely not believe it.

But Lai Da has indeed become much more low-key recently, and even frequently expresses kindness to his own son, and is quite stance to live in harmony.

The mansion said that he was afraid of Wang Xifeng's thunderous methods, so he took the initiative to retreat and seek peace.

But the Lai family has been in power for many years, so how could he admit defeat so easily?

Lai Shun made a few polite words with Lai Sheng in suspicion, and Wang Xifeng's sedan chair over there rushed to the Neiyi Gate.

The housekeepers and managers of Ningguo Mansion hurriedly retreated to the side and stood there.

Only Laishun was summoned by Xu and quickly met him and went to the corner with his mother.

"Mom, what's going on?"

"I've just asked Ping'er."

Xu said in a low voice: "I asked you to come here to serve, but it was actually Mr. Zhen who took the initiative to propose it - yesterday he first admitted his mistake in front of his wife and the second wife, and then he begged our grandma to help with the funeral."

"I also said that all the people in this mansion will be dispatched by our grandmother. If it is not convenient, it will be possible to bring a few from home. At that time, he specially named your name and said that you can speak out for the reputation of Ning Rong's two mansions, and that you are a loyal and courageous person."

Is it what Jia Zhen meant?

Is there any conspiracy in this?

But after thinking about it, if Jia Zhen really wanted to harm him, she would not have mentioned this matter specifically in front of Wang Xifeng.

Now that Wang Xifeng heard Jia Zhen’s words, he specially transferred herself over. If something happened to her in Ningguo Mansion, how could Jia Zhen explain to Wang Xifeng?

After thinking about it, Jia Zhen mostly just wanted to eliminate Wang Xifeng's grudges so that she could help bury Qin Keqing's glory.

Tsk ~

Jia Zhen really treats his daughter-in-law...
