After hearing Jia Mu's lesson, Jia Zheng quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly, and said with tears on his face: "This time, my son is indeed too angry. Although my son thinks it is difficult for him to study, he still feels very good.
But I didn’t expect that he would do such a shameless thing.”
On the way here, Jia's mother had already heard Yuanyang say, why was Jia Baoyu beaten? In fact, she didn't take it seriously. In her eyes, this Qi Guan was just a plaything. Jia Baoyu didn't care about him now.
Let them spend time together. After a while, it will be cold, and then you can deal with the little goblin to vent his anger. This way, Jia Baoyu will not be hurt.
Jia Mu has long been familiar with the affairs of the back house. She knows how to control the slaves without hurting the master.
While they were talking, a maid came outside to report: "Uncle and Grandma, Second Master Lian and Second Grandma Lian are here."
It turned out that Jia Ke had just returned to Wuyang Hou Mansion and had just spoken a few words with Qin Keqing. He was saying that Lan Xiang was about to give birth and should he prepare a few stable mothers in advance for emergencies.
After saying this, Qin Keqing asked about what happened in the Hall of Rongxi just now.
"Uncle, I just heard that they arrived and said that Prince Zhongshun came to our house to cause trouble. How are they doing now?"
"Don't worry, it's been solved now. They won't dare to come back in the future."
Qin Keqing felt relieved. To be honest, he was still a little afraid of Prince Zhongshun. Although Jia Ke was now a very popular minister, Prince Zhongshun was the emperor's younger brother after all. If he offended him, Jia Ke would be a little worried.
trouble.
Unexpectedly, before they finished speaking, Ruizhu came in and reported: "The uncle is not well. People from the east mansion say that the master is about to beat Mr. Bao. My wife asked you to go over and have a look."
Jia Ke smiled bitterly after hearing this. He couldn't handle the big affairs of the court, and he had to deal with these trivial matters every day when he returned home.
Qin Keqing still didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly asked Ruizhu: "What's going on? Good sir, why do you want to beat Mr. Bao?"
Ruizhu glanced at Qin Keqing sheepishly, blushed but said nothing.
When Qin Keqing saw that Ruizhu was silent, he knew something was wrong. However, Jia Baoyu was beaten and they didn't help him, so he hurriedly said to Jia Ke: "Uncle, why don't you go and try to persuade him in case he gets beaten?"
What can I do anyway?"
Jia Ke did not get up, but picked up the tea next to him and took a sip. Then he said slowly: "I think he deserves a beating. He hangs out in the back house every day, so I can tolerate him. I'll do it this time."
If you don't teach this stupid thing a lesson, I think he will rebel."
Jia Ke felt that it was better not to go. If he went by himself, Baoyu might be beaten more severely. Besides, the old lady and Mrs. Wang would definitely get the news later, so there was no need to persuade him.
Qin Keqing and Ruizhu saw that Jia Ke had not stood up, so they did not dare to continue to persuade him. However, the master and servant kept looking back and forth, passing news to each other.
"What are you two doing? You are flirting in front of me, or I will get jealous and beat you both up."
Qin Keqing burst out laughing, "Oh, it's our fault. I'm here to apologize to you."
Jia Ke seemed to have forgiven him now, and they both said: "Since you know you are wrong, if you still come over and give me a slap on the back, I will treat it as a punishment for you."
Qin Keqing stood up with a smile, came to Jia Ke's back, and tapped him gently.
Jia Ke closed his eyes and enjoyed Qin Keqing's service, almost falling asleep.
Seeing that Jia Ke's anger had calmed down, Qin Keqing said softly: "Is it true that the uncle is not going to go? The old lady will also go there in a while. If she can't see the uncle by then, I'm afraid she will have to pick a fight."
Jia Ke was stunned for a moment, and began to fall silent in her heart. Although the old lady valued herself very much, that is, her contribution to the Jia family, in terms of closeness, Jia Baoyu was still the first in the old lady's heart.
So Jia Ke could only sigh helplessly and said: "You are right, but we can't go first. You send someone to investigate. When the old lady and madam are gone, we can go over and ask for mercy."
After hearing what Jia Ke said, Qin Keqing had a smile on her face, and then winked at Ruizhu next to her.
Ruizhu immediately understood what Qin Keqing meant, and ran out with a smile.
Ruizhu came back after a while, "Uncle, grandma, there is news from the nearby mansion that the old lady has left for Rongxi Hall."
After Qin Keqing heard Ruizhu's words, he immediately put his face against Jia Ke's ear from behind and said softly: "Uncle, how are you? Should we leave now too?"
Jia Ke paused for a long time, then opened his eyes and said, "Let's go, don't be too late, let them argue."
So these two people, together with a group of maids and women, left the back hall of Wuyang Hou Mansion, passed through the Moon Gate and went straight to Rongxi Hall.
As soon as they arrived at the back house of Rongxi Hall, they saw Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian coming out of their small courtyard talking and laughing.
Jia Ke frowned when he saw that the two of them had just arrived. At that time, the two of them were the closest to the Rongxi Hall. He had rushed here from the Wuyang Marquis Mansion, and the two of them arrived outside the Rongxi Hall.
Could it be that the two of them had any objections to Jia Baoyu? Did they hide on purpose?
Although Jia Ke thought so in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. He said to Jia Lian: "Second brother Lian, you are here too. It seems that there is something serious going on inside."
Before Jia Lian could say anything, Wang Xifeng came to Qin Keqing and said softly to her: "Do you know why Baoyu was beaten?"
Qin Keqing had not forgotten what happened some time ago, and she felt a little uncomfortable thinking about the man in front of her who had seduced her husband. But she could only reach out to avoid hitting the smiling man, and she could only say perfunctorily: "I just asked Rui
That dead girl Zhu turned red in the face and didn’t say a word to me. Now I’m all confused.”
Wang Xifeng smiled mysteriously when she heard this, then she moved her mouth to Qin Keqing and whispered a few words in Qin Keqing's ear.
Qin Keqing, after listening to Wang Xifeng's words, her face turned red immediately. She didn't expect that Jia Baoyu could do such a dirty thing. But then she thought about the time when she just got married, and Jia Baoyu stared at her. Now that she thinks about it, it turns out that
He is an evil spirit in lust.
Wang Xifeng saw that her face was red and she said a few words in his ear. As a result, Qin Keqing was so embarrassed that she reached out to hit her.
Jia Ke and Jia Lian watched them whispering there and waited for them for a while. But they actually started talking and laughing.
"Okay, what time is this? Now that we've finished talking, let's go in together." Finally, Jia Ke spoke.
At this time, Qin Keqing and Wang Xifeng stopped smiling and followed Jia Ke and Jia Lian into the Hall of Rongxi.
When they entered the Rongxi Hall, they saw Jia Zheng kneeling beside Jia Mu and apologizing bitterly.
As the eldest son, Jia Ke also hurried over and knelt beside Jia Mu, "Old lady, please spare my father this time. He just saw God failing and got angry for a moment. Now I want to come to him
I regret it too.”
Jia Mu's anger was almost gone now, and she quickly walked over to see Jia Baoyu's appearance. As soon as she saw Jia Baoyu, her tears immediately flowed out again.
Mrs. Wang, Qin Keqing, and Wang Xifeng quickly tried to dissuade her. After trying to persuade her for a while, Mother Jia finally held back her tears.
After Jia Mu slowly stopped crying, she quickly ordered someone to say: "Someone, please take the jade back and ask the doctor to take a look at it as soon as possible."
As soon as Jia Mu gave instructions, several maids came over to help Jia Baoyu.
When Qin Keqing saw Jia Baoyu like this, how could he move? He was scolded: "You stupid thing, you didn't even open your eyes to see. How could you help someone who was beaten like this? Why don't you hurry up and get the person next to you?"
Bring the soft couch over, put the treasure jade on it and carry it back to Yihongyuan."
After hearing this, everyone hurried in and quickly carried out the soft couch, put the precious jade on it, and carried it back to Yihong Courtyard.
At this time, Jia Ke did not follow him in. Instead, he ordered his own soldiers to take his post to the Tai Hospital and treat the head of the Tai Hospital, the old lady Lu Jin.
After finishing this matter, Jia Ke entered the Grand View Garden and went to Jia Baoyu's residence, Yihongyuan.
Jia Ke entered the Yihong Courtyard, which was already overcrowded. Aunt Xue, Baochai, Xiangling, and Xiren were all busy in Jia Baoyu's room.
At this time, Lin Daiyu was sitting in front of Jia Baoyu's bed, holding her hand, her face covered with tears, and she was out of breath from crying.
Qin Keqing kept urging her not to be so sad. What if something happened to her body again?
Jia's mother was sitting in the main room of Yihong Courtyard, scolding Jia Zheng, roughly how he educated Jia Zheng when his father was here. How does Jia Zheng educate Jia Baoyu now?
Jia Zheng knelt there as if he was humbly admitting his mistake, but in fact he didn't think so. He thought that one of the two sons he personally educated by his side was particularly outstanding in martial arts, and is now the foreman of Wuyang Hou's military aircraft department. The other although
It's a little worse, but it's just because of poor health and bad luck. Even now, he has gained a great reputation. He is not convinced that he can't educate his son. But he has always been filial, and he doesn't dare to talk to Jia Mu.
He contradicted her and just followed Jia Mu to admit her mistake.
Jia Ke saw Jia Zheng's predicament there and hurried up to help him, "Old lady, I have already posted a message to ask the director of the Tai Hospital, Mrs. Lu Jin. He will be here soon, and you have to go and let him know.
Respond."
When Jia Mu heard what Jia Ke said, she turned her attention away and said with joy on her face: "Did you really post a message to invite me? Then will Dr. Lu find a reason not to come?"
Jia Ke said with a smile on his face: "With our current status, Dr. Lu will still come here in the future."
Jia Ke thought in his heart that if the imperial doctor dared not to come, then he would never have to come again.
After a while, someone came from outside to report that Dr. Lu had entered the Rongguo Mansion, but it was not convenient to enter the inner courtyard, so he came to report to the old lady.
When Jia Mu heard this, she scolded those family members and said, "You are ignorant. Dr. Lu can even enter the inner courtyard of the palace casually. If there is any place in our house, you can't enter it. Why don't you hurry up and invite us over."
Jia Zheng, who was standing next to him, wanted to make up for his mistake and said quickly: "Old lady, since Dr. Lu is here, why don't I go and invite him in person. It also shows our respect."
"This is what you should have invited. Who made you get into such trouble? Why don't you go quickly? Baoyu is still hurting." Jia's mother accepted Jia Zheng's flattery. After all, Jia's mother accepted it.
Baoyu was also wrong first. Jia Zheng was angry and had no sense of control, so we can't blame him.
