Chapter 121 Jiusi informed Wang Xifeng about Lai Jia’s affair
Jiusi listened and smiled and joked: "In terms of busyness, no one can compare with the second sister-in-law. I heard someone said that now my sister-in-law is not only busy with affairs in this mansion, but also in the Ning mansion."
You have to take care of things!"
When Wang Xifeng heard this, she stopped serving the tea and looked at her and said, "Sister, what do you mean? Is it that I shouldn't be involved in the affairs of the house?"
Jiusi did not answer her words, but said this: "I didn't mean what I said. It just depends on how the second sister-in-law understands it."
Wang Xifeng is not a fool. Why can't she hear the other party's many hints? She just can't let go of the power in her hands.
Moreover, although she had a good relationship with the Lin sisters because they had daughters, it was also because she liked Lin Ruhai's uncle and wanted to find a way out for her family. She didn't like the sisters more, so how could she be willing to listen to her! Since marrying into the Jia family, she has seen clearly than anyone else that the old lady favors the second wife. Even her father-in-law Jia She can only be suppressed by filial piety. Although the Duke's mansion is nominally the eldest room to inherit the title, only the old lady can
On one day, they can only wait like this in the big room.
And the servants of the Jia family are all snobbish. If the two of them can't even grasp this idea of stewardship, then who knows how miserable their lives will be.
But after all, the other party was doing it for her own good, and it was hard for her to say any harsh words. Now she heard her words and wanted her to give up her power. Although she was a little unhappy, she still explained a few words to her. p>
"I know what you mean, and I also know that you said those words for my own good. It's just that I finally had a good relationship with her, and I always wanted her to leave with dignity, so I took over the job in the mansion. p>
Besides..."
At this point, she suddenly stopped, looked at the maids standing around, and ordered: "You all go down first. I have something to say with you girls."
The daughters-in-law she brought with her went out immediately after hearing her order, while the servants of the Lin family bowed and left in unison after Jiusi nodded.
Seeing that there were only two people left in the house, Wang Xifeng continued: "Besides, she also gave me a dream on the day she left, telling me that the Jia family is now cooking oil, so that I can make plans in advance, but obviously she can't worry about me.
of.
Since she was devoted to me, how could I let her down? No matter what, I should let her go with dignity.
I also know that I should not interfere with the affairs of the house. I have heard the unpleasant things said by the servants in private, but I am just too lazy to care.
It is not easy for a woman to survive in this world, and the Jia family is in such a situation, and your second brother Lian is also a lovable person. If I can't live according to my heart, I should have suffocated myself to death."
Seeing that she had made her words clear, Jiusi also stopped the smile on his face and said coldly: "It's good to just let things go, but why haven't you stopped the matter of making money privately?
Now that my sister-in-law has been reminded by the Qin family, she should have made plans early. Is it possible that she really has to wait until the Jia family is defeated to regret it?
To tell you what my sister-in-law doesn’t like to hear, I don’t like her behavior of lending money from the bottom of my heart.
My sister-in-law did such a derogatory thing with so much peace of mind. If it weren’t for the fact that I didn’t want Sister Qiao to have a mother to watch over me in the future, I really wouldn’t want to worry about you.
Besides, the law expressly stipulates that this cannot be done, and you still do it. Do you think that the Jia family can really protect you?"
After hearing this, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook her head: "You think I don't want to stop, but I can't stop now!
I'm not afraid of your jokes. Since I took over the affairs of this house, I have been filling it with money, and now the dowry has been filled in.
After you reminded me that day, I ordered people to check the law and found out that money cannot be released. But once the money is gone, the Jia family will really not be able to survive, let alone the masters.
Even the servants at home can’t afford it.”
Although Jiusi already knew about this, he still pretended to be surprised and said: "Sister-in-law is so confused. The dowry is a woman's waist. How could you fill it all in? Does the second brother Lian know about this?" Wang Xifeng smiled bitterly again and shook his head: "I have a very stubborn temper. Even if I have trouble, I will swallow it myself. And he is homeless all day long. Even when he comes back, he has to use money. He comes back to get money, so how can he do it?"
Did you know this?"
Jiusi heard the words, pondered for a moment, and then asked her: "I just ask sister-in-law, if I give you a chance, are you really willing to put down the power you hold and live your life well?"
Wang Xifeng was really tired recently and wanted to take a rest. Although she didn't know what she meant, she understood that she had an idea, so she smiled and said, "If you really have a way to help me, I would really like to take a rest."
, I don’t want to worry about this family’s affairs.
I’m not afraid of your jokes. Sister Qiao is now older, so I thought I could give her a younger brother or younger sister so that she could have someone to help me in the future.
But I don’t know if it’s really a loss of moral character. After I had Sister Qiao, I never got pregnant again. If you really have a way to help me, I will take care of myself at home with peace of mind and give Sister Qiao another younger sibling.
."
Jiusi knocked on the table thoughtfully, thought for a while, and then nodded: "Okay, since you have this intention, then I will help you again. If you still don't want to listen to me, then I will
Nothing can be done.
You must tell Brother Lian and the eldest man that your dowry is gone. You can no longer hide the fact that the Jia family has no money from them. Although the eldest man is a fool, for Sister Qiao's sake
, I will definitely compensate you.
After you get the compensation, while the eldest master and second brother Lian are in heartache, you take the opportunity to tell them one more thing. Say that the old slaves of the Lai family are treated the same as the old ladies outside. They are all slaves.
They serve in groups, just like an old feudal lord.
As far as I know, the old lady promised the grandson of the Lai family to escape from slavery and take the imperial examination. If you don't take action now, I'm afraid that the family property that was taken away will not come back.
If they are afraid of being blamed by the old lady and dare not check, then take them to the warehouse to have a look. I heard that some people have seen them taking things from the warehouse, and they are all very valuable items, and some of them are probably
The old lady’s dowry and royal gift..."
Although she didn't finish what she said, Wang Xifeng had already understood it.
When Chu Jiusi first came to Jia's house, he manipulated the old lady and his wife, using the name of this gift from the emperor to force the old lady and others to compromise and return it.
At first, Wang Xifeng didn't understand this and didn't take it seriously. It wasn't until she knew how important it was that she started paying attention to it.
As for the Lai family, the old lady has always attached great importance to those old slaves. In order to show their importance, she also asked the younger generations to pay more respect to the Lai family. Even Baoyu had to pay tribute when she saw them. It can be imagined that
How high is the Lai family's status in the Jia family?
Unexpectedly, she actually raised a domestic thief. Thinking of her wry smile management over the years, she couldn't help but feel angry and wanted to go and beat that wolf-hearted person to death!
