Chapter 272 Where is Qingwen?(1/2)
"Brother Enhou, Brother Cunzhou, let's go to the old lady first. If we speak frankly, I'm afraid it will easily cause misunderstandings and there will be no room for negotiation."
Wang Ziteng also knew something about Jia Qiang's character. Moreover, without Jia's mother in person, Lin Ruhai would not have been able to agree to their request to suspend the loss of the family status of some of the founders of the country.
Jia She and Jia Zheng understood clearly. They nodded in agreement and walked to Rongqing Hall together.
Since Lin Ruhai and Jia Qiang came to the door today, no matter what, they must be allowed to share half of the garden expenses of Huifang Garden in Songkou East Mansion, and tolerate some shortcomings due to old friends.
…
Rongqing Hall.
Although Jia Mu was furious today, after Sister Feng served a table full of delicious food and soup, there were so many grandchildren surrounding her, and Sister Feng flattered and teased her from time to time, she let Jia Mu Forget the previous anger.
After drinking and eating, Sister Feng looked at Daiyu and said warmly: "I heard that Qiang'er gave you a small opera troupe. They are all small actors selected from the best opera troupe in Jiangnan. When will I bring it? Let’s have a good time too, shall we?”
Daiyu smiled and said: "Qian'er, why don't you go together?"
Sister Feng cried out "Oh!" and said aggrievedly: "You are also an 'old man' who has lived in our house for several years. Don't you see that I have free time all day long?"
Jia Mu smiled and said, "That's right. I've wronged you a lot."
Sister Feng hurriedly changed her face and said with a smile: "My ancestors said this too early. When I sell out the pity and coax Sister Lin to lure her little troupe here, you, the old feudal lord, will say this again!"
"Pooh!"
Jia Mu spat, "I don't have a thick skin like you. As a sister-in-law, I still care about my sister's things. If you really want to go to the theater, spend ten or twenty taels to invite a good theater troupe to come back and honor me." That’s it, you only care about your sister’s things. I think you were reincarnated as a stingy person and can’t see any good things!”
Everyone laughed, and Mrs. Duwang looked slightly uncomfortable.
Daiyu smiled and said: "If the old lady is busy and can't get there for a while, I will send someone to send the Little Sixi team over tomorrow. Although they are young and not as good as the famous actors, they don't have a lot of fun."
Jia Mu smiled and said: "You have such a heart, it is very good." Then she asked: "How many aunts do you still have in your house now?"
Daiyu's face changed slightly when she heard this, and she said: "There are three more. The one who manages the house now is Aunt Mei. She was in the house when my mother was here, and she has a very good relationship with her. When my mother died of illness, she even asked her to take care of me."
Jia Mu said "Oh", paused, and frowned: "It's just that your father is such a big official now, and there will be a lot of official exchanges in the future. Even clans with old friends will often move around. Whose family will give birth to a child?" If you have your eldest grandson and your legitimate son, how can you still not move around if your family's official title is gone? Without a wife, it's not the same after all."
Daiyu felt a little sad when she heard this, and said softly: "Dad said that after mother passes away, he will not renew his relationship. Mother is the only wife in the family, and he doesn't want me to call anyone else mother..."
When Jia Mu heard this, she was immediately moved, her eyes were red, and she couldn't hide her grief and cried: "It's a pity that your mother didn't die like this, your father was a good person..."
Not to mention Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Li Wan, and Sister Feng, who was not moved by Lin Ruhai's long-lasting love?
How many men are there in the world like this?
Especially for people from a family like theirs, if the head wife dies, it usually takes less than half a year for the man to remarry.
It's called filial piety, and it's responsible for your children.
Apart from other things, after Jia Shefa's wife died and Jia Zhenfa's wife died, one took two months and the other three months, wouldn't they all marry new wives?
There are very few people like Lin Ruhai.
But it made Mrs. Wang feel more and more unfair. What woman wouldn't be jealous of such a thing...
She said calmly: "Even so, in the future, will Aunt Mei be allowed to manage the Lin Mansion and entertain guests? The old lady has gone. It would be inappropriate for her to receive the guests."
When Daiyu heard this, her face turned pale and she forced a smile and said: "Old lady, my lady has gone, it's up to me to serve her."
After all, Jia Mu felt sorry for Daiyu. She patted her hand and said lovingly: "You don't need to worry about these things. In another two years, you, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, can do it yourself. Back then, your mother helped you before she left the cabinet."
I am the housekeeper. And your aunt, before she came to our house, was also the housekeeper's second lady in the Wang family."
Daiyu smiled when she heard this and was about to speak when she saw Jia She, Jia Zheng, Wang Ziteng and Jia Lian arriving.
Just as the family members were about to give way, Jia Zheng laughed and said, "My sister-in-law and Brother Qiang are outside and are about to come in. We thought we might as well meet here."
Why didn't Jia Mu know what they were thinking? She snorted, thought for a while, and said to the sisters Daiyu, Baoyu, Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun, Xiangyun and others: "You also stay here to meet your uncle."
We are close relatives, so there is no need to be too shy."
Jia Zheng hurriedly smiled and said: "Extremely yes, extremely yes!"
Jia She and others were also happy. They thought that with these sisters here, maybe Lin Ruhai and Jia Qiang would be more generous.
While he was talking, he heard an exclamation coming from outside:
"oops!"
"God!"
"Second Master Xiaoqiang, what's wrong with you?"
This cry made everyone in the hall frown. Jia Mu said to Sister Feng, "Go and see what's going on."
Daiyu's heart suddenly tightened, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and her eyes were fixed on the door.
Before Sister Feng went out, she saw a little girl with two buns on her head getting in. Then she raised her face and tightened her mouth, and forcefully opened the scarlet felt curtain high.
Not long after, Jia Qiang helped Lin Ruhai come in...
"Ouch!"
Sister Feng was the first to see Jia Qiang, half of her body covered in blood, and exclaimed in shock: "What's going on?"
Jia She's eyes lit up, and Jia Zheng and Wang Ziteng stood up one after another, as if expecting someone to fall down after taking just two steps...
On the high platform, Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others were also startled and turned pale.
There was no trace of blood on Daiyu's pretty face, her thin lips trembled, she stood up slowly, her eyes rolled down like broken beads.
Although Jia Qiang's face was pale and half of her body was stained with blood, her eyes were bright. She immediately looked at Daiyu, smiled at her and shook her head, indicating that nothing was wrong.
Daiyu bit her lip and endured it again and again, but still couldn't hold it back. She walked around the chair and walked down. Although she was standing on Lin Ruhai's side, she couldn't take her eyes away from Jia Qiang...
Seeing this scene, Lin Ruhai was also afraid. If something happened to Jia Qiang today and she died in Tianlang Village...
The consequences are really unimaginable!
Fortunately, fortunately, everything is fine.
He patted Daiyu's hand gently and smiled: "Nothing."
Then he said to Jia Mu, who had already stood up on the high platform: "I shouldn't have come right away. I was just afraid that the rumor would spread and disturb the old lady. Moreover, I also wanted to express my happiness, so I came right away after I came out of the palace."
It's convenient for Qiang'er. We'll open the ancestral hall later and tell the good news to the ancestors of the Jia family."
Hearing this, Jia's mother looked at Jia Qiang in surprise and asked: "Brother Qiang, what's wrong with you? Why are you so good? Your uncle-in-law said you want to congratulate me?"
Jia She wanted to say something rude and sarcastic, but he thought about asking this evil obstacle to pay for it, so he couldn't bear it.
On the contrary, Wang Ziteng thought more. Based on what Jia Lian said earlier, something happened to Jia Qiang in Dongcheng. Now it seems that it may be a blessing in disguise.
Jia Qiang looked indifferent and said: "Today I led the horse soldiers to inspect Tianlang Village. I didn't expect to find prohibited weapons inside. Then I established the Wei camp to rebel, and I was killed by Yongchang Hou Qiucheng..."
After hearing this, Wang Ziteng lost his voice and said: "How is that possible?"
Jia She couldn't bear to sneer and said: "I don't know my face. The general Yongchang Hou Qiucheng who oversees the Liwei camp is famous for his bravery in the army. He is also one of the best among the heroes of Yuanping. Just you, What kind of array do you dare to pull to kill the enemy? Are you afraid that you drank too much yellow soup and are an idiot talking in your sleep?"
Jia Qiang sneered and said, "I haven't been at home with my little wife in my arms all day long, drinking wine, so how could I get drunk and talk in my sleep?"
"you……"
Jia She couldn't take a breath and almost died of anger. His old powdered face turned red and purple.
He did not dare to scold Jia Qiang anymore, so he asked Lin Ruhai: "Ruhai, he is your disciple, how do you teach him to talk to his elders like this?"
Lin Ruhai said "Hey" to Jia Qiang, shook her head, and then smiled bitterly at Jia She and said: "I can't teach him now. My dear, Qiang'er really didn't talk nonsense. If not, he would have been injured all over." Where did it come from? The Liwei camp turned against him, Qiang'er killed him because of his troops, and was promoted to a first-class marquis because of his great achievements. We just came out of the palace and came here."
"What? A first-class honorary title?!"
Jia Zheng said loudly in surprise and joy.
Jia Mu, Li Wan, Sister Feng and others were all pleasantly surprised. Sisters Ying, Tan, Xi Sanchun and Xiangyun also showed smiling faces.
Having another marquis in the Jia family is ultimately a good thing.
Daiyu's beautiful eyes looked at Jia Qiang with surprise and blame, her eyes watery.
Only Mrs. Wang and Baoyu mother and son on the high platform had pale expressions.
What Mrs. Wang is worried about is that if such a thing comes out of the Jia family, it is hard to say whether the Wang family can borrow strength from it in the future.
What breaks Baoyu's heart is Daiyu's heart, which has been placed entirely on Jia Qiang...
Jia's mother's thoughts are also complicated and difficult to understand. Although she dislikes the rebellious and rude Jia Qiang, no matter what, Jia Qiang's surname is Jia, not Wang.
If he could care for the Jia family, Jia's mother thought that it would be better for some favors to fall on him than on outsiders.
Of course, if he was still as wild and rude as before, she wouldn't tolerate him.
Thinking of this, Jia Mu said to Sister Feng: "Hurry up and get someone to set up a table again. Since it is a happy event, we must have two drinks."
Then he said to Lin Ruhai: "You are in poor health. I have asked people for a medicinal diet these past two days. It is light and nourishing. You should not drink with them. Just use this medicinal diet."
Somewhat unexpectedly, Lin Ruhai bowed and said, "Let the old lady worry about it."
Mother Jia let out a long sigh and said: "I am just an old and ignorant old woman now, and I don't expect you children to be your father-in-law for eternity. As long as I can live in peace, I will be satisfied."
Suddenly he said to Baoyu: "Although you are fatter than Brother Qiang, you are almost the same in stature. I went to find a pair of your clothes and change them for him. The blood made me dizzy. It seemed like I was seeing the country again. The way my father-in-law looked when he came back from the war was really heartbreaking."
When Baoyu heard this, he led Jia Qiang to his courtyard. As he walked, he said: "It's you. If it were someone else, my clothes would never be worn by others even if they were ripped off."
Jia Qiang had to come because she didn't want Lin Ruhai to be in trouble. After hearing this, she was speechless and said: "If you say that, I always feel that there must be something arrogant about your clothes."
