Mother Jia was thinking about the affairs of the Zhen family in the room. The Zhen family in Jiangnan has almost reached the point where one hand covers the sky. Is it really good for the Jia family to keep such a big influence?
If we let them go now, if we fail to protect them, we will end up in a situation like the Eastern Jin Dynasty where the king and the horse share the world.
While Jia Mu was thinking, the maid outside shouted, "Master is here."
Then Jia Ke entered the main room, and Yuanyang followed Jia Ke into the room. He came to Jia's mother in three steps and two steps, bowed and said: "Old lady, the uncle is here."
Only then did Jia Mu open her eyes and looked down at Jia Ke who had finished saluting and was waiting for her to speak.
"Big brother is here, let's sit down and talk."
Jia Ke didn't refuse and went directly to the chair next to him and sat down.
"Did Yuanyang tell you just now?"
"I don't know what the old lady was talking about. Yuanyang didn't tell me anything else."
"In that case, I'll talk to you."
After Jia Mu finished saying this, she got up from the bed and Yuanyang quickly placed a pillow behind Jia Mu.
"The Zhen family from Jiangnan just sent people here. I heard that you sent people to surround the Zhen family. Did something happen to their family?"
When Jia Ke heard what Jia Mu said, he was a little surprised. He surrounded the Zhen family and was able to let people out. It seemed that the area to the south had been deeply infiltrated by the Zhen family.
Because in this matter, Jia Yucun, as one of his own people, will never bend the law for personal gain, so speaking of it, it is the people under Jia Yucun.
The other one is Tian Ye, and only after he spoke out, those people dared to do this blatantly.
Jia Ke felt a little unhappy when he thought of this. Tian Ye himself was very optimistic about him, but he didn't expect that there would be a leak in this important matter. It seemed that he was bending the law for personal gain.
"Old lady, I sent people to the south of the Yangtze River to purchase grain with the money I deposited some time ago. Who would have thought that the Zhen family would dare to order grain merchants in various places not to sell grain. As a result, I have not received a single grain of grain until now.
How can I help the victims of the disaster in Shaanxi?"
After hearing Jia Ke's explanation, Jia's mother's heart skipped a beat. This matter is not a trivial matter. If things go wrong, the world will be in turmoil.
Now Jia's mother has regarded the world as belonging to their Jia family. When she heard this, she was also a little resentful towards the Zhen family. Wasn't she trying to subvert her family's power?
"So that's what happened. If their family dares to bend the law like this, then I can't help them. Brother, just go back and act in accordance with the law."
Jia Ke quickly stood up and thanked Jia Mu, then bowed and left.
Seeing Jia Ke leave the room, Jia's mother angrily said to the mandarin duck beside her: "What's going on with this old lady from the Zhen family? She even said she was an old relative of our family. At the critical moment, she tried to undermine us. I
It seems that she has evil intentions, and now that I have no other choice, I came here to subdue her."
Yuanyang also hurriedly followed Jia Mu and said: "Their family has gone too far this time. Don't you know how many lives will be lost if this delay is delayed? It is the old lady's mercy. This can be regarded as saving the lives of countless people."
After hearing Yuanyang's compliments, Jia Mu nodded with a smile, and then said, "Oh, people's hearts soften when they get older, and you won't see such a thing."
Yuanyang saw that Jia Mu had recovered somewhat, so Xingzhi asked from the side: "What should we do with Baoyu and the girls sent by the Zhen family?"
When Jia Mu heard this, she patted her forehead with her hand and thought for a while, "God is kind enough to save lives. Since they have arrived at our home, please spare their lives."
"Then what does the old lady mean?"
"Those girls signed a deed of prostitution for them and worked as maids in our house. At least they were spared their lives."
"As for that Zhen Baoyu, I think he looks very similar to our Baoyu. If someone outside comes up with evil intentions, our Baoyu will be in danger. His face will be scratched and sent to the stable to be a stable boy.
Bar."
Yuanyang listened to Jia Mu's instructions, and the chill in her heart rose directly to her forehead, but she did not dare to refute, and hurriedly lowered her head and said: "It's all according to the old lady's instructions, I'll do it now."
Jia Mu nodded and closed her eyes. What she was thinking about now was the stability of their Jia family. As for the old relative of the Zhen family in the south, since he was against their Jia family, leaving a root for them would be considered worthy.
They are gone, and there is nothing else they can do to help.
At this time, people from outside came in to report that it was Mrs. Wang who wanted to see me.
As soon as Jia Mu heard this, she knew what the old mother who had disappeared just now was doing. Mrs. Wang was here.
"Let her come in and answer."
After Jia Mu's instructions, the door curtain was immediately opened outside, and Mrs. Wang walked into Jia Mu's main room from the outside.
When Mrs. Wang met Jia Mu, she first bowed and then stood aside politely.
"Didn't you just say hello this morning? What's the matter with you coming over again?"
Mrs. Wang has been married to every family for so many years. She knows this old lady very well and knows that she doesn't care much about small things. Once it comes to big things, she can't play tricks on her.
So Mrs. Wang said honestly: "Just now, an old nun from the Zhen family asked to see me and wanted me to send a letter to their dowager in the palace, so I came here to ask the old lady for her advice."
After Jia Mu heard this, she looked at Mrs. Wang in surprise. She knew how arrogant Mrs. Wang was outside now.
Mrs. Wang was a little embarrassed by Jia Mu, and finally she could only bite the bullet and said: "If it is a trivial matter, I will naturally make up my mind, but how dare I make the decision without permission in this matter."
After listening to Mrs. Wang's words, Jia Mu nodded happily. It seemed that Mrs. Wang still knew the importance.
"Don't worry about this matter. The Zhen family is finished this time. Who dared them to be so bold and want to destroy our family's empire?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang felt a sudden shock in her heart. This was the first time she heard such treasonous words from Jia Mu.
Mother Jia seemed to feel that she had made a mistake just now, so she pretended to be tired and sent Mrs. Wang away.
Mrs. Wang left Jia Mu's room and returned to her own residence, a little distracted. Now she was worried about her daughter and thinking about her son's future, and was in a dilemma.
In the end, Mrs. Wang made up her mind. Compared with the girl and her son, she still wanted her son. In Mrs. Wang's mind, the most she could do was to beg Jia Zheng and spare the lives of her daughter and grandson.
, just let them enjoy peace.
Besides, Yuanyang came out of Jia Mu's room, called over a dozen strong women, took them to do business, and went directly to the yard next to Jia Mu.
As a result, as soon as they entered the courtyard, they heard laughter and laughter in the main room. When they heard the sound, it turned out that it was Jia Baoyu talking to several girls.
Yuanyang was a little annoyed when he saw this situation. Who was bold enough to lure Baoyu here?
At this time, the old servant of the Zhen family saw Yuanyang coming and quickly stepped forward to greet him with a smile.
"It turns out it's a girl here. Is it the old lady? Do you have any instructions?"
Yuanyang looked at the old and cunning prison chief in front of him, with a sneer on his face, "You didn't do anything wrong even if you lured Jia Baoyu here."
"The place where this old man is staying now is the inner residence of our Jia Mansion. You are a man, so I'm afraid it may be a little inconvenient for you."
After Yuan Yang said this, he said to several strong women next to him: "Send this old man out of the second door, and tell the young man outside to take good care of him. If he disappears, the old lady will be in trouble."
Explain."
The women understood what Yuanyang meant as soon as they heard it, so they separated into two people, stepped forward, grabbed the old servant's left and right arms, and dragged him out.
Although the old servant struggled hard, he was too old and frail to struggle. He could only shout loudly: "What are you doing? This is the way your Jia family treats guests. Is there any royal method?"
Already?"
The noise within them stopped immediately, and then Jia Baoyu came out of the house, followed by several beautiful girls, and Zhen Baoyu also walked out last.
When Jia Baoyu saw some women dragging the wife out, Jia Baoyu wanted to show his face in front of some girls, so he yelled: "Stop, everyone, what are you doing?"
When Yuanyang saw Jia Baoyu asking questions, he hurriedly came forward to salute Jia Baoyu first, and then said: "This old servant is a man. There are rules in our house that foreign men are not allowed to enter the second door, so I sent someone to take this old servant to Jia Baoyu."
The old servant sent him outside the second door to find a place for him to rest."
When Jia Baoyu heard this, he nodded and stopped saying anything. If it was a beautiful girl, maybe Jia Baoyu would say a few more words. For an ugly and old man, Jia Baoyu has no compassion.
.
The girls nearby and Zhen Baoyu didn't say anything when they heard this. After all, this was the rule for wealthy families, and when they were in the Zhen family, there was no reason for a foreign man to enter the second door.
Among them, Zhen Baoyu was a little uneasy. Speaking of which, he was also a foreigner, and she didn't know if he would be sent to the second door soon.
Without Jia Baoyu's obstruction, the women had no scruples and directly dragged the old man out of the small courtyard, and disappeared after a while.
Yuanyang saw that the old man had been dragged out, so he continued to say to Jia Baoyu: "Third Master, I was looking for you everywhere just now. I will give you a message. You go back to the front as soon as possible. If you are late,
The master is going to be annoyed."
When Jia Baoyu heard this, he was immediately out of his mind. He didn't care about anything else. He turned around and said goodbye to several beautiful girls. Then he walked out of the small courtyard and disappeared after a while.
When Jia Baoyu was gone, Yuanyang looked at these girls with unbearable expressions on their faces. These are all ladies of the house. They didn't expect to be servants now, but it was their fate to be in trouble in Jia's house. If
They are still in Jiangnan. Once Jia is fucked, they may be sold to no one knows where.
"Come here, show the contract to these girls, and then have them sign and pledge it. This will save us the trouble."
