Chapter 832: An accident happened to the Zhen family, Jia Lian showed her grace
Sister Feng sneered: "In broad daylight, in full view of everyone, Baoyu and Miss Xia gave each other gifts and took the handmade purses with their own hands. Even though the second wife was not prepared at all, she had to bite the bullet and agreed. But later
After asking about their situation, I was absolutely convinced."
She paused, took a sip of tea, and then said: "When I talked to Second Master Lian, we all thought that Second Master Lian must be opposed to such a noble character. Who would have thought that he has a millionaire fortune and is owned by
He was absolutely convinced that his grandson would succeed him. He even felt that he was a royal relative and the other party was also from a wealthy family, so he was a good match, so he decided. And because Baoyu was old and couldn't delay any longer, he couldn't help but hurry up. Fortunately, etiquette
It’s all ready. It’s just…”
Sister Feng sneered and said: "Second Master Lian is also an official. He asked someone to ask questions a long time ago. When he came back and told me, we both thought that there was something wrong with this marriage."
Bao Qin sneered and said: "What's wrong? It's simply inappropriate."
Although she is a girl, she has traveled around with her father since she was a child, and even went to northern Xinjiang to interact with girls from Eros, so in terms of knowledge, she is almost as knowledgeable as those Angzang men.
Seeing everyone looking at her, Baoqin said: "Baoyu is not familiar with worldly affairs and knows almost nothing. He just indulges in romance, poetry, wine, tea, flowers in front of and under the moon, even if he is being plotted by someone, he doesn't even know. Which noble family?"
, allows my daughter to meet her foreign husband? And allows Miss Xia to exchange gifts with him? "
Then he shook his head and said: "Knowing how to use this method shows that they have checked Brother Bao's character and are willing to do this because they feel they have a way to control it. Mrs. Wang wants to covet their extreme wealth, and she is afraid that she has made a wrong calculation. That girl will definitely
It's very scheming, I'm afraid their second room will be lively in the future."
Everyone nodded as he spoke.
And Sister Feng was all smiles.
Everyone could see that Sister Feng was gloating about her misfortune.
The girls all knew about the situation that Sister Feng encountered during her pregnancy. Although she was suppressed by Jia Mu, they would only be deceiving themselves if they said they didn't have the slightest idea in their hearts.
Therefore, everyone understands that Sister Feng has such a mentality.
Daiyu looked at everyone, and then said to Sister Feng: "Second sister-in-law, I'm afraid she will have to stay in the east courtyard in the future, and go to Rongxi Hall less often. If she bumps into her, I'm afraid you will be in trouble.
"
Sister Feng sneered: "Should I go to Rongxi Hall? Humph! Originally, the lord of the Rongguo Mansion was the eldest, so that's where we should live. It's not that the master is incompetent, but the old lady is partial! I'll see how long they can have fun.
.”
Daiyu said: "Second aunt is only looking out for her own eyes and has offended everyone."
At this time, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard Zuo of the Great Zhou Dynasty was idle at home, and Lin Zhao, who was devoted to preparing for his father's trip to Beijing, came in.
He is a loyal and diligent uncle and a high-ranking official. All the female relatives here should bow to him when they see him.
However, everyone is a regular visitor, they are Daiyu's "best friends", and they are all relatives. Even if someone like Yinglian, who is not a relative, still has a "former concubine room" sign, Lin Zhao just waved his hand and told everyone that there was no need to say anything more.
present.
Then he looked at Sister Feng and said, "Second sister-in-law is right. Living a comfortable life is the most important thing, and living a comfortable life is the real benefit. What do outsiders care about? But I'm afraid the entire Jia family can hardly sit still.
.Do you know that something happened to the Jinling Zhen family?"
Sister Feng and Xichun stood up in a hurry: "What happened to the Zhen family?"
Lin Zhao smiled and said: "What else can happen? It's nothing more than those: corruption, bending the law, bullying others, selling one's official position, etc. The servants of the Zhen family have already gone to Beijing. Second sister-in-law, where do you think they will go?"
Sister Feng's face turned pale and she could hardly sit still. She left Sister Qiao and Jia Tongtong in the Lin Mansion, and ordered Xichun to say: "You also stay, and you are not allowed to go back these days. I will pack up your bedding and send them away later."
Come here." He hurried home in a car alone.
Daiyu hugged Sister Qiao and said to Lin Zhao: "Brother, do you want to start?"
Lin Zhao teased Brother Xuan and said, "It has started a long time ago. It's just that many people are used to being drunk and dreaming, and they don't want to wake up."
Daiyu sighed, hugging Xichun and saying nothing.
Lin Zhao said to Baoqin, Miaoyu and Yinglian: "Except for me, don't go out these days."
The three girls hurriedly agreed. Baoqin was the most anxious and hurriedly said goodbye and went home to talk to her mother and brother.
Miaoyu and Yinglian didn't have anyone to go to, but it was better. But when Feng heard about the Zhen family's accident, he and Lin Zhao sighed: "My lord, if no one collects the body, you can tell us that it is my husband's family after all.
That name has given me a lot of blessings, so I should do my best in this matter."
Lin Zhao nodded in agreement, his heart full of respect.
This Feng family is much more responsible than her official Zhen Shiyin.
As soon as Sister Feng returned home, Nanny Li came over to greet her and reported: "Someone from the Zhen family has come, and they secretly sent a few large boxes to the second wife."
Sister Feng almost fell to the ground softly, but was supported by Xiaohong and Feng'er. Sister Feng calmed down and said, "Did the second wife accept it?"
Grandma Li nodded.
Sister Feng fell down on the chair and said in despair: "What can we do? What can we do?"
Aunt Li hurriedly poured tea for her: "Grandma, don't panic now. Old slave, I'm afraid the court affairs won't reach our house for a while, and we still have time to do something about it. As for the things from the second wife,
Grandma must not be able to take it out. Even if the old lady and the gentlemen know about it, they may not be willing to hand it over. Of course the old lady has intentions, but the gentlemen may be greedy. Anyway, this is already the case.
It would be better for grandma to beg Uncle Lin and ask him to report a message in front of His Majesty, saying that the things are with us. The first report is meritorious. For Uncle Lin's sake, at least grandma, brother and sister can be saved.
." Then he said: "If grandma really can't bear it, you might as well talk to Mr. Lian and the old lady and see how they decide?"
Sister Feng nodded, managed to calm down, and immediately sent someone to find Jia Lian.
When Jia Lian came back from the Yamen, he saw Sister Feng and listened to her tell her about the trouble in the Zhen family and how Mrs. Wang had stolen the Zhen family's property.
After hearing this, Jia Lian walked around the house several times and said: "There has been news that the Zhen family has been raided. His family owes millions of taels of silver, and he is an old minister of the Supreme Emperor. Your Majesty is now acting arbitrarily, so naturally he will kill those moths."
It’s all done. Even though the second wife is the one who plucked her hair, even though we have a big feud with each other, and even though we can talk to Cousin Lin, after all, the Rongguo Mansion is one, and I have to talk to my boss about this matter.
Madam, make it clear."
He held Sister Feng down and said: "You are the wife of the inner house, I will handle this matter, and you can help me from the side."
Sister Feng nodded in agreement.
The couple went to find Jia Mu together. As soon as they met, Mrs. Wang happened to be there. Jia Lian didn't even give him a gift and said directly to Jia Mu:
"I heard that the Zhen family in Jiangnan sent people to bring gifts in the past few days?"
"If you accept it, quickly count it out and return the gift to the Zhen family!"
Jia Mu was shocked when she heard this and said hurriedly:
"What are you talking about, Lian'er? The Zhen family and we are family friends and have been close relatives for many years. Is there anything wrong with accepting a gift from his family?"
"Of course there is a reason!"
Jia Lian waved his sleeves, showing his demeanor as a court official:
"Since the Dragon Boat Festival last year, His Majesty has issued eleven edicts in a row, clarifying the way to serve as an official, enumerating the long-standing abuses in the officialdom, and specifying the need to punish officials for their crimes, make up for shortfalls, and conduct an inventory of money and food."
"In June, the Imperial Examination Office was set up in the imperial court to investigate the matter. The General Affairs Department, the Jinyi Guards, the Longjing Guards, and the Ministry of Household Affairs all sent people to participate."
"Now more than half a year has passed, and most of the local officials have been impeached. There are only a few who are in serious trouble, and the Zhen family is one of them."
"We are accepting gifts from the Zhen family at this time. If people say that we are involved in the Zhen family, we are not afraid of being accused of transferring property from the Zhen family to the Jia family?"
"This charge is a serious crime!"
"Once the court investigates it, who among us can say clearly? Can the empress in the palace withstand such a thunder?"
