"Mother!"

Jia She and Jia Zheng are both rare brothers who look so happy.

Wang Ziteng also greeted me respectfully and said, "Good morning, old lady."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "What's going on? Are you all so happy? You just came back from the court?"

Jia She chuckled and said: "The old lady is right, she just came back from the court. Today, our founding lineage can be said to be proud and proud! The heroes of Yuanping were beaten, and it was difficult to even parry. Zhao Guogong's house is known as the number one in the honorable family.

Gaomen, this time is also in disgrace. Although the old prince’s plea to beg for his bones was not allowed, the position of admiral and general of the Jiangjia Fengtai camp fell into the hands of our family.”

When Jia Mu heard this, she was surprised and said, "You got it?"

When Jia She heard this, the smile on his face froze, he laughed twice and said: "My son has never liked being an official..."

Jia Zheng came to his rescue and said: "It's Liang Gong who can go, it turns out it's the same as ours."

When Jia Mu heard this, the smile on her face suddenly dimmed, and she said with a smile: "How do I understand the affairs of the court? I just tell some jokes. From now on, don't talk to my old lady about such important matters."

Prince Teng said hurriedly: "Although I have won, I still need more help from the Jia family and the old lady, otherwise I won't be able to secure this position."

As the saying goes, there is only one emperor and one courtier.

In the military camp, it's actually pretty much the same.

If Wang Ziteng wanted to truly control the 40,000 soldiers and horses of the 12 battalions, he would have to replace a number of generals.

It's just that although the Wang family also came from a martial arts background, the ancestor of the Wang family was just a county official and could not even be hereditary. How could he have many generals to listen to him?

In the peaceful era, the promotion paths for warriors were almost completely controlled by noble families.

He can either choose generals from the Yuan Ping Xun family or from the Founding Xun family.

Therefore, in the end, we still have to rely on the power of the Jia family.

When Jia Mu heard this, she felt increasingly uncomfortable and unhappy with her eldest son.

The Jia family's title was given to him. He was a first-class Rongguo Duke. How many favors and favors did he leave behind?

As long as he is a person who strives for success, how could the Jia family have fallen to the point where there is no one to support the facade with these favors.

All good officials are given to the Wang family.

Feeling depressed, Jia Mu smiled lightly and said, "As an old woman, what can I do to help you?"

Seeing Jia Mu's attitude, Wang Ziteng couldn't say anything more and looked at Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng pondered for a while and then said to Jia Mu: "Old lady, if Liang Gong wants to secure this position, he will need the help of the founding heroes and all the governments..."

Jia Mu said impatiently: "I don't pay much attention to outside things. Whatever you want to do, just do it."

Jia Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "What Liang Gong means is that our Jia family still needs to build up its momentum. It is just a good time to take advantage of the royal concubine's marriage to let the outside world see the momentum of the Jia family, and also to gather the hearts of my father's old tribe.

Let them know that our Jia family is still prosperous. However, to build a garden, we need Huifang Garden in Dongfu to lay the foundation. So..."

Hearing this, Jia Mu pondered for a long time. If she was just helping the Wang family, she would never do it. But since she wanted to gather momentum for the Jia family, she did not object. Thinking of this, she said: "It just so happened that Yu'er came.

At home, the eldest wife and I are invited to visit the Lin Mansion... Anyway, I'll go and ask Yu'er and I to talk to that bastard."

Jia She hurriedly said: "Old lady, it costs a lot to set up the garden. Can you let Dongfu pay half of it? You must know that the glory of the Jia family is not limited to Dongfu!"

When Jia Mu heard this, her face darkened, and she wanted to dismiss it, but then she remembered the rumor that Sister Feng had told her. The property that her eldest son had taken from Dong Mansion was ordered by the palace to return it to Dong Mansion in a penny. Mansion...

In addition, the money given by Jia Chang and Jia Ling earlier was also returned. After all, he still wanted to lose face among the clan, so in the end it was all in vain.

She sighed in her heart, no matter how unkind she was, he was still her eldest son, so she reluctantly nodded and said, "That's fine, I'll put my shameless face on and talk about it together. As for whether it will work or not, I can't guarantee it."

When Jia Zheng heard this, his old face turned red. It could be seen that Wang Ziteng looked at him with keen eyes, and finally said with some difficulty: "There is one more thing..."

Jia's mother looked ugly. She hated greedy people the most, but she heard Jia Zheng say: "My sister-in-law issued an official document from the Ministry of Household Affairs today, asking the officials, honorable ministers and princes and nobles who borrowed money from the Ministry of Household Affairs to pay what they owe within one year." Pay back your losses."

Hearing this, Jia Mu said in a deep voice: "It is not a natural thing to pay back debts. What is there to say?"

Jia Zhengqi smiled and said: "Time is really tight after all, and the loans have been borrowed for several years. How can I pay them back in a short while?"

Jia She also said: "It's not like mother doesn't know that there are so many high-ranking families in Beijing, except for a few one or two families like ours, there are so many hereditary poor officials who are just trying to keep up a facade, and don't point out that they are in the household department. If you borrow some money, you won't be able to survive for years. Now if someone suddenly pays you back, how can you get it back?"

Jia Mu asked curiously: "Why are you talking to me about this? You are not giving it back to me. Are you asking me to give them the coffin money to supplement it?"

Jia She, Jia Zheng, Wang Ziteng and others all apologized and even said they didn't dare.

Finally, it was Jia Zheng who said a little embarrassedly: "I still want to ask my mother to tell me something in front of my sister-in-law..."

Jia Mu was even more surprised: "You want me to talk about this kind of thing?"

Wang Ziteng saw that Jia Zheng was speechless and said hurriedly: "If we wait to talk, it can only be a matter of business, but the old lady is different. Everyone knows that Ruhai is pure and filial, and the old lady and the Duke did not treat each other as pampered guests. It is clear that he treats him as his own son. If the old lady goes to tell the story, all the high-ranking people will definitely feel the old lady's great kindness and regard the Jia family as their benefactors!"

When Jia Mu heard this, her heart moved again, but she refused to agree on her face. She waved her hands and said, "It's useless even if I say these words. Don't count on me. When the Duke of Guo was here, he never let me pay attention to the outside world." First of all, don’t let me waste my time on that. Secondly, I am a woman, so I shouldn’t get involved in things that I shouldn’t get involved in. Just go and go, if there is anything else, just go and do your own thing. It will only disturb you. I have a headache……"

Jia She, Jia Zheng, Wang Ziteng, Jia Lian and others had no choice but to retire.

In the Xinuan Pavilion, Baoyu looked at Daiyu who deliberately sat next to the door and sneered repeatedly, feeling embarrassed and said softly: "Sister Lin, uncle, he didn't mean that..."

Daiyu was surprised: "What does your uncle mean? Tell me, what does he mean?"

When the sisters saw Baoyu's face turned red and sweat on his forehead, they hesitated and couldn't explain why, so they all sighed in their hearts:

Sister Lin is still the same Sister Lin, her mouth is the same as a knife...

Li Wan was afraid that Baoyu would suffer from hysteria again, so she couldn't explain it, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "Okay, okay, the things outside are over, let's go out quickly. Sister Lin finally came back, and she was thinking about what to add at noon. Delicious and naughty..."

Baoyu liked what he said. He didn't really care about the Wang family. As long as it didn't delay his fun with his sisters, he could say anything. He clapped his hands and said with a smile, "How about we write poems and have wine today?"

Yingchun said with a smile: "Come on, don't talk about drinking anymore. You got drunk during the Chinese New Year and made us suffer for half a year."

Baoyu smiled and said, "No more today!"

But he only looked at Daiyu, but Daiyu's face remained unhappy, and his expression gradually became lonely.

The group of people came out of the Nuan Pavilion and saw that Jia Mu's face was not very good. When Jia Mu saw Daiyu like this, the old man knew in his heart that Daiyu must have listened to what he just said. He hurriedly smiled and said: "Good Yuer, just now You must never tell your uncle what you said to me. Their big events outside have nothing to do with us."

Hearing this, Daiyu frowned, lowered her eyes and said, "If the old lady gives you any instructions, my father will naturally obey him no matter what. My father often taught me at home that my grandfather treated him like his own son, and my grandmother would not use a different surname. They regard it as flesh and blood. That is... even if my mother is gone, my grandmother has never blamed him. What can such kindness be like for the biological mother and son? Uncle and the others, if you have something to tell your father directly, I, as a niece, will naturally not do it. There is room for speech. However, if they let the old lady speak, it is a bit...a bit bullying."

Seeing Daiyu shed tears, Jia's mother was already dissatisfied, and she couldn't hold it back anymore. She said angrily, "What do you think of those greedy people? They keep doing it over and over again. It's not over anymore. I want to be promoted." You want the garden, you want the garden, you want the money, and if you want the money, you also need to sell it to my uncle from the Jia family?" This last sentence showed that the old lady was not confused.

But to be fair, what Jia Mu said was a little unreasonable.

After all, it was her eldest son who asked Yuanzi for money, not Wang Ziteng.

But she thought that without Wang Ziteng, there would not have been this embarrassing scene today, which made Daiyu cry.

Furthermore, the Wang family is originally greedy and wants to do this and that, which is really annoying.

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng coming in from outside. They may have heard something, and their expressions were unnatural.

It’s just that Jia’s mother is in the Jia family, who else should we take care of?

When he got angry, he pulled Daiyu even more angrily and said with a straight face: "They all know how to plot against us orphans and widowed mothers. They all think that I am easy to mess with! I can't stay in this family anymore, so I will take him with me." Go up to Baoyu and go to the Lin family with you. My uncle is more reliable than his children now, just think that I have only raised a good daughter in my life, not even a son!"

These words were so serious that even Mrs. Wang couldn't bear it and knelt down.

As soon as she knelt down, Li Wan and Mrs. Wang naturally couldn't stand, and even the Jia sisters also knelt down.

Daiyu was startled, and hurriedly persuaded with a smile: "Old lady, don't be angry. Who doesn't know that uncle and aunt are the most pure and filial people? Don't say filial piety to the old lady, I have lived in Jia's house for so many years, uncle, aunt She loves her like her own daughter."

Jia Mu snorted and said, "You are their biological niece, shouldn't they love you as they should?"

Daiyu smiled when she heard this and said, "Then grandma should not have wronged uncle and the others."

Jia Mu sighed and said: "Come on, for Yu'er's sake, I won't blame them today. However, I won't be a guest in your house tomorrow. There is a lot of chaos in the court, I don't know. No matter how busy you are, if you keep running our family's house, you will be exhausted. Just tell him that he can come and sit here when he has time."

Then he said to Mrs. Wang and others: "You should also get up."

Sister Feng and Li Wan hurriedly helped Mrs. Wang to get up. Mrs. Wang's joy at hearing that the prince had gained a high position had long since disappeared. Her expression was indifferent, without even looking at Daiyu, she asked Jia Mu: " What else does the old lady want to eat for lunch? Feng Yatou rushed to ask me, but I thought about it, so I might as well ask the old lady."

Daiyu, who had always been sensitive, suddenly looked dim...

In her heart, she has actually regarded the Jia family as relatives...

But looking back today, except for the old lady, others may not think so...
