Chapter 203

Naturally, the movements in the outer courtyard cannot be hidden from the people in the inner courtyard.

Mrs. Wang really couldn't figure out which song Jia Lian and his wife were singing. A moment ago, they were showing kindness to everyone, making everyone grateful and grateful. It felt like the whole world was celebrating.

Why did the next moment, his face changed and he started to get angry?

Moreover, the one who was beaten was one of the housekeepers!

This made Mrs. Wang suspicious.

You know, apart from Lai Da and Lin Zhixiao, who were promoted by Jia Mu, Shan Daliang and Wu Xindeng were both her people.

As soon as Jia Lian got the title, he attacked Dan Daliang, which made her start to wonder if Jia Lian was here for her.

Despite her suspicions, Mrs. Wang did not do much. First, Jia Lian and his wife had the power of housekeeping. If they had done nothing wrong, she would not be able to interfere.

Secondly, Jia Lian was beating the slaves of the outer court. Even if it was wrong, Jia Zheng should have been allowed to intervene. At this time, Jia Zheng must be studying in Mengpo Zhai, so she would naturally not disturb him with such a trivial matter. Moreover, maybe Jia Zheng knows it now.

"Madam...!!"

Suddenly, Shan Daliang's family rushed in like a ghost chasing her. As soon as they saw her, they screamed for help.

Mrs. Wang asked what was going on.

"I just went home and tidied up before coming back to serve the master and grandmothers. Who knew that Liu Chun's family over there in the East Crossing Courtyard, with a group of mothers-in-law and boys, came directly to They broke into my house, saying that they were ordered by Mr. Lian to search for dirty evidence.

Then, regardless of the slaves' obstruction, they forced their way into the house and just rummaged through it...
/>
They weren’t looking for any dirty evidence. Whenever they saw something valuable, they would grab it directly on the carriage outside, just like bandits.

My boy went up to stop him, but was One of the guards under Mr. Lian was so beaten that he was lying on the ground unable to stand up..."

"What..."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang said, He couldn't help being frightened, and asked quickly: "What on earth did you commit that he wants to do this to you?"

"My wife, Mingjian, the slaves didn't do anything.

We have been working diligently in the government over the years. We never dared to make a mistake, and somehow we offended Mr. Lian.

I heard from the housekeepers and daughters-in-law that my family’s family is now I am still being forced to punch boards in front of the steward's room. I am afraid that I will lose my life now...

Madam, what can we do?We are all your people. Mr. Lian treats us like this, but he does not take his wife seriously. Please be kind to her and save our lives, otherwise we will not survive..."


She originally thought that Shan Daliang and others were caught by Jia Lian for being greedy, so they had to teach them a lesson. .

Although it does not conform to the current family management philosophy of the Jia family, it cannot be wrong.

It’s just that sending people to raid the slave’s home is really too much. It’s...!

The Jia family has not done such a disgraceful thing in decades.

Being upset by the urging from Shan Daliang’s family, Mrs. Wang sighed. : "Now that he carries the title of family and is respected by saints, I can't control him anymore. You go find the old lady, maybe he will listen to the old lady, go ahead..."

There was a look of despair on the faces of Shan Daliang's family, seeing that Mrs. Wang was really powerless to take care of this matter. , did not dare to delay, got up from the ground and ran to Rongqing Hall immediately.

If she delayed any longer, she was afraid that her family would be beaten to death.

Oh my God, who can stand eighty bucks?

…

In the compound where the steward’s room is located, the leader of Liu Chun’s family packed boxes one by one. When the things were brought to the yard, even Lai Da and Lin Zhixiao couldn't help but feel chills in their hearts.

But they didn't dare to show anything strange, they just behaved obediently. Wait and wait for the change.

Wang Xifeng was also dumbfounded and thought to herself, could it be that the unscrupulous person got some benefits by copying Jingxu’s lair, so he fell in love with this thing?

But this is too exciting. He just ransacked his slave’s house without saying a word?

Aren’t he afraid of others criticizing him and the old lady also blaming him later?
>
But Wang Xifeng just thought about it and immediately became excited.

Having been in charge of the Rongguo Mansion for several years, Wang Xifeng knew how wealthy the housekeepers and stewards in the family were. Maybe she will be richer than she was before!

Take the four housekeepers Lai Da and Lin Zhixiao, for example, they all live in separate houses outside the house. During the Chinese New Year, they I also want to invite Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang to have a drink and watch a show... although Jia Mu and others may not necessarily appreciate the honor.

This, the Shan family has been copied without conscience, how much good should be copied? Something is coming?

Liu Chun’s family came over tremblingly and reported back: “Second Master, according to Second Master’s instructions, this servant went to Shan’s house to search for stolen goods, except for some that could not be moved.Yes, I basically brought everything else over.

The servants didn’t have time to count them, so they are all here. Please take a look at them. "

Jia Lian was about to speak when he suddenly saw a woman from Rui's family coming to the corridor quickly.

"Second Master Lian, Second Grandma Lian, the old lady called You guys go in and answer..."

When Wang Xifeng heard that Jia Mu was calling, she felt a little worried and couldn't help but glance at Jia Lian.

Look, the old lady is here to ask questions. You think about how to reply, I can't control it, who told you not to discuss it with me in advance.

There was no change on Jia Lian's face, it seemed that everything was as he expected.
br />
He only said to Wang Xifeng: "I'll answer the old lady's place. You stay here and ask them to count the things clearly in front of everyone, and then ask someone to report the specific number. ”

Wang Xifeng understood what Jia Lian meant as soon as she heard it, and was happy not to see the great grandmother, so she nodded and agreed.

…

Jia Lian came to Rongqing Hall, and sure enough, Jia Mu had already set up her formation.

Not in the inner hall, she was sitting in the main hall outside. There was only one Mrs. Wang, and another one sitting on the ground. , from the crying Shan Daliang’s family.

“I’ve seen the old lady, Mrs. "

As soon as Jia Lian finished the ceremony, Jia Mu frowned and asked, "Where is Feng girl? "

" "There are still some things to take care of outside, so I asked her to take care of it for now."

If the old lady has anything to say, just ask me, I know everything. "

When she saw Jia Lian's casual attitude, Jia's mother became angry, so she said angrily: "You are becoming more and more promising now, and you ransacked your slave's house for nothing!"

You are also a dignified second-grade general. Are you not afraid of embarrassment? "

Jia Lian glanced at Shan Daliang's family on the ground. When the other person met his eyes, he immediately backed away with a guilty conscience.

Jia Lian snorted and handed over his hand. He replied: "The old lady is responsible for this. If so, I'm afraid the old lady will be deceived by these unscrupulous slaves.

If they themselves did not break the law and did things that were extremely detrimental to the interests of our Jia family, how could their grandchildren do this? ”

Jia’s mother is a good person, and she knows what Jia Lian means without even asking.

“Even if they made a mistake and did something they shouldn’t have done, If you want to discipline and give instructions, that's fine. How can you just copy someone else's name directly?

The so-called not looking at monksLooking at the Buddha's face, any big family knows how to maintain the dignity of the family.

They have been servants of the house for several lifetimes. They are the ones in charge of things in my hands, so they should be somewhat decent.

"You are so willful and bully your slaves. Did you do it just for me to see?" ”

Jia’s mother was indeed a little angry.

After all, the Jia family’s philosophy of running a family is that those who serve and have experience in front of the elders are better than their masters. Be decent.

This is actually the so-called filial piety and managing the family, or it can also be said that "it depends on the owner to beat the dog."

Now Jia Lian does not say anything like this , to bring Shan Daliang's family to death, which is obviously a loss of face to her and Mrs. Wang!

"Old lady, calm down, my grandson has no such intention anymore.

In fact, the grandson doesn’t want to do this. Is the grandson really a person who doesn’t want dignity?

It is true that they have gone too far, otherwise why would their grandson have to do this.

The old lady thought about it, why did the grandson not punish Lai Da, nor Lin Zhixiao and Wu Xindeng, but the Shan family? "

Jia Lian had already responded to Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang's remarks, so he slowly spoke.

When the Shan Daliang family heard this, their eyes became even redder.

Yes, the two of them have never offended Mr. Lian and Mrs. Lian, so why are they singled out for death?

If Jia Mu and others got through, With the world's Internet, they might be able to understand the unreasonable proposition of "Why don't they hit others but just you?" But they didn't, so they felt that Jia Lian's words made sense, so they sent Shan Da The good man glared hard, and then sighed: "What on earth did they do to make you so angry? "

"Thanks to the kindness of the old lady, she gave us more than 10,000 taels of silver, so that my father's funeral can be settled satisfactorily. I would like to thank the old lady again here. Thank you, madam.

In order to use the silver on the steel blade, Feng Yatou and I have been thinking very hard over the past month, for fear of wasting one or two and a half cents of silver and delaying the master's funeral. If the money is not enough, where will we search for it?

Go to the old lady and my wife again to ask for it? We don’t have that face anymore.

However, the Dan and Daliang couple, relying on their ability to manage affairs and not being considerate at all, used both sides to make false and concealed reports and took kickbacks during the preparations for my father's funeral. Greedy money is getting more and more money every time.

The two grandsons and Feng Yatou,I have discovered it a long time ago, but I just kept it secret for the sake of my father's spiritual status.

Do you know, old lady, how much ink they spent on my father’s funeral alone? "

Jia Mu and others were a little silent. If Jia Lian said this, it is no wonder that Jia Lian and the Shan family settled accounts after the fall.

"My father's funeral, the former A total of less than 20,000 taels of silver was spent, but this family alone spent thousands of taels of silver, accounting for one-fifth or sixty-sixth of my father's total expenses.

Old lady, madam, do you think you can tolerate such a cowardly and greedy dog ​​slave? "

"No, we don't have it. Mr. Lian is just spitting blood.

Old lady, madam, you have to believe us, we don’t have it, we really don’t have it..."

The hearts of the Shan Daliang family spewed blood, Jia Lian said it truthfully It's too exaggerated.

They made false reports, concealed reports, and took some kickbacks... but they didn't go to the bank to rob. How could they have embezzled thousands of taels of silver?

After all calculations, it’s impossible to get more than a thousand taels of silver.

It’s really unfair...

“Humph, of course you won’t admit it. If you really admit it, I won't do this.

Anyway, now that all the dirty evidence has been revealed, we will know whether you are humans or ghosts just after Feng Yatou compiles the statistics! ”

Seeing Jia Lian’s demeanor, Jia’s mother and others are actually more willing to believe Jia Lian.

Because the slaves in the family are rich and rich, they all know it. But they have a With this mentality, they feel that the more glamorous the slaves around them, the more decent they will be, so they don’t pay much attention to their moderate greedy behavior.

Who knew that it would allow them to become so rampant!

Is it okay to steal thousands of dollars for nothing? Then in a few years, the entire official treasury will be emptied by them?

Both Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang somewhat understood why Jia Lian was so angry and must punish them severely.
