When Jia Lian and Sister Feng walked out of the main room again, it was already quiet and sparsely populated.
At the foot of the steps, Jia Lian's five or six personal guards were still kneeling in unison. Sister Feng glanced at them, told Jia Lian, and led the others to Rongqing Hall.
Jia Lian stood quietly in front of the corridor. Although he said nothing, he put a lot of pressure on the guards below.
Zhao Sheng could have left because he didn't take action. But he didn't leave. Instead, he chose to kneel here with Feng Fei and others. Seeing that Jia Lian was getting angry, he wanted to explain.
"Okay, let's all get out."
Everyone looked at each other. They all thought they would be punished for causing such big trouble this time.
Zhao Sheng and others knew this, but in their opinion, it was worth getting rid of the Zhao brothers, even if they were punished by the second master.
Just when they were hesitating, they heard Jia Lian's warning from above: "Remember, before making a decision next time, make sure you report it first. There is a difference between following authority in a hurry and making arbitrary decisions. I hope You guys should weigh it carefully after you get down."
Zhao Sheng and others were shocked, and then they all said "yes", then stood up, saluted and left.
Zhao'er is different from Zhao Sheng and others. He is Jia Lian's confidant and is responsible for Jia Lian's daily life when traveling.
When Zhao Sheng and others left in an uneasy mood, he even dared to stay on his own initiative, walked up to Jia Lian, covered his face and said to please: "Second Master..."
Jia Lian gave him a cold look, turned around and said to Qingwen, who was standing at the concierge: "Take a bottle of the 'golden sore medicine' prepared by your second grandmother."
Zhao Zhao My son immediately smiled and even the scratches on his face no longer hurt.
After thanking him in a flattering manner, he explained righteously: "Second Master, don't blame Brother Feng and the others. They all acted to help me today.
< br />Besides, didn’t you also say that we can use one of the Zhao brothers’ hands? Originally we thought of only using one of their hands, but when we blocked them today, not only did they refuse to give up, they even Dare to scream, but show no sign of remorse.
The slave is so angry. I just think that if I lose one hand, it will be useless, even if I lose another leg, it will be the same.
< br /> "So, let Brother Feng and the others be a little harsher. It's not the fault of Brother Feng and the others. If the second master is to blame, it's just the slaves."
Jia Lian was noncommittal.
Zhao'er is a young man after all, and he seems to think that Zhao Sheng and others are just acting out of a sense of justice.
However, in fact, Zhao Sheng et al.He just took this opportunity to get rid of the Zhao brothers who were using his reputation to cause trouble everywhere.
Jia Lian knew this, otherwise he would not have cooperated with them in driving the Zhao brothers out of the house.
And Jia Lian could guess that this was probably Zhao Sheng’s idea. Speaking of which, Jia Lian did not expect that Zhao Sheng, who was just a domestic slave, would grow into a man who could take charge of his own business so quickly.
But it just confirms the saying that heroes are created by the current situation regardless of their origin.
As far as Jia Lian is concerned, he neither wants to attack the subjective initiative of his subordinates and make them puppets who only follow orders, nor does he want them to get used to making independent decisions, so appropriate beating is necessary.
Throwing the ointment that Qingwen got into Zhaoer’s arms, “Go back and rub it carefully, it’s best not to leave any scars.”
“Yes, thank you, Mr. , Thank you Aunt Qingwen..."
Qingwen saw that Zhao'er not only made a special trip to thank her, but also called her 'aunt'. Seeing how Zhao'er bowed her hands, she found it very interesting, so she said "Pfft" Laughed.
“Go away.”
How could Jia Lian tolerate this kid here to tease his own pretty girl? He scolded and then ordered: "Tomorrow I will be with you two. Grandma is leaving the city, so you ask the people outside to prepare carriages and horses to accompany her."
Zhao'er responded and ran away quickly.
In Rongqing Hall, Jia Mu was about to go to sleep. When she heard Wang Xifeng coming, she reluctantly received her.
“The house is in chaos today, what happened?”
“Old lady, it’s not a big deal.”
Sister Feng Let’s talk about the matter briefly and lightly.
Aunt Zhao can be Jia Lian’s wet nurse, so she naturally has some status in the house, and she can also speak something in front of Jia Mu.
This is actually the reason why Sister Feng had to invite Jia Lian back to deal with it before. Because the matter was not handled well, it would not be good for Aunt Zhao to get into trouble in front of Jia Mu and others.
And Aunt Zhao is also a sensible person. She did not take the matter to Jia Mu from the beginning, but came to Jia Lian and his wife. If it were any other stupid woman, seeing her son being beaten like that, she would have gone straight to Jia Mu a long time ago.
In fact, Jia Mu had already heard about this matter, but she just wanted to confirm it from Sister Feng's mouth.
After listening to Sister Feng’s answer, she asked: “What do you think of Zhao’s wife’s character?”
Sister Feng smiled and said: “In my opinion, she It's a good thing. I usually do my job well. I don't talk much, and I don't behave like some people.She is dressed up to be pretty and charming.
Except for today's incident, nothing has happened in the past year since I entered the mansion. "
Jia Mu nodded. After all, Jiang Yun is also one of the wives in charge of the house. Naturally, Jia Mu has seen it.
Although Jia Mu has always liked colors She is a good girl, but it does not mean that she is indifferent. Being born as an oiran, she is naturally despised and hostile by aristocratic women like Jia Mu.
The reason why she was able to successfully enter the government and become a servant is because she is Jia Lian It means.
Jia Mu had long thought that if she found him even remotely restless, she would just kick him out.
Perhaps Jiang Yun also knew this, so Having been in the government for so long, I have always followed the rules. I don’t strive for the limelight, I just do my job well every day, so that people like Jia Mu can’t even make trouble if they want to.
“Well ~"
Jia Mu thought for a moment and said, "Even if she is a good person, the way she is born, there is no guarantee that she will not cause trouble again in the future. Besides, after things like today happen and she is allowed to go in and out of the garden every day, others will inevitably not point fingers at her. If your sisters hear and see her, it will also have a bad influence.
Anyway, we don’t lack this person at home, so let her go home. "
Sister Feng hesitated for a moment, but seeing that Jia's mother looked a little unhappy, she quickly smiled and said: "What the old lady said is that I will discuss it with our second master later and leave it to her outside. Just arrange an errand..."
Jia Mu's cheeks moved. In the past, Sister Feng would always carry out any of her orders without hesitation and hesitation. Bargaining.
She couldn’t say anything, maybe this was the price she had to pay for the family’s prosperity again. In the past, the Jia family was deteriorating, but her status was getting higher and higher.
< br />Now, she has to seek common ground while reserving differences.
…
Outside Rongguo Mansion, in a house alley two streets apart.
>
As a popular figure in Rongguo Mansion, Zhaoer has long since abandoned the old dilapidated house and bought a new house here.
Not only did he bring his grandparents to live here, And they also hired maids and servants for the two elders to take care of them.
In the main house late at night, the dim lights flickered.
“Ouch, be gentle, it hurts... "
The cotton swab soaked in wine was rubbed on the scar, making Zhaoer grimace in pain and tremble constantly.
Jiang Yun saw it and said: "I have already said it. Okay, I'm fine, let meDon't argue with them, you won't listen. It's better now. It's not worth making such a big fuss because of me and causing you to be punished in front of the Marquis. "
Hearing this, Zhao'er grabbed Jiang Yun's hand applying medicine to her and said with a smile: "Why isn't it worth it? I think it's worth it!" Humph, those two bitches from the Zhao family dare to miss my wife, I can’t kill them!
You were born like a flower, and you were already wronged by following me. If I don't protect you, am I still a man? "
Jiang Yun was moved after hearing this. It is impossible to say that she did not have any grievances when she agreed to devote herself to Zhao'er. It was just that she had no choice due to the situation at that time.
< br />Now that she has been with Zhaoer for almost a year, she has looked away. Apart from being a "slave", there are no other disadvantages to following this little naughty guy.
She has no worries about food and clothing. Moreover, she is ten years older than Zhaoer, and her temperament is more mature than Zhaoer. In addition, Zhaoer is very obedient to her, which leads to many times when she Looking at Zhao'er is like looking at her own son.
For example, in this small house, she is like the undisputed hostess. Even Zhao'er's grandparents respect her. .
Without him, the marriage between her and Zhaoer was not only approved by Jia Lian, but on the wedding day, Jia Lian not only came in person, but also sat in the high hall.
In comparison, I was a concubine with a big salt merchant in the south of the Yangtze River. Although she was called a master, I was actually just an object for others to play with. To a certain extent, she was worse than a slave.
In total, my life now is She is settled. At least, she has a family.
As a beauty who once won the first courtship in Jiangnan, Jiang Yun’s appearance and figure needless to say, even if she is no longer at her peak, then The charm could not be resisted by Zhao'er who was so close.
When Zhao'er was staring at her, he couldn't help but move up and kiss her beautiful face, which made Jiang Yun He spat: "I'm applying medicine, what are you doing..."
Zhao'er was quite proud, "I never thought that I, Zhao'er, would be able to marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law in my life. Now that I think about it, It's all still like a dream. ”
“Virtue. "Although Jiang Yun cursed, the action of applying the medicine in his hand suddenly became much gentler.
As soon as he finished applying the medicine, before Jiang Yun could clear up the case, he was thrown onto the bed by Zhao'er.
"Don't make trouble, I still have to fetch water to wash your feet! "
"Why are you washing your feet? Madam, let's kiss each other first..."
Zhao'er threw herself on Jiang Yun and kissed her fiercely, the beauty I have no choice but to let him go.
After accomplishing something good, Jiang Yun held Zhaoer in his arms and chatted as a couple.
Suddenly Zhaoer said: "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, apart from the Zhao brothers, are there any other unsighted people who come to seduce you these days? Or, Have you ever hooked up with a wild man behind your back?"
Jiang Yun was stunned and immediately said angrily: "If you disliked me, why did you marry me in the first place and let me go to the Jiaofang Division to fend for myself? It's better to die than to marry you. Not only do you have to guard against being bullied by others, but you also have to be suspicious..."
Seeing that Jiang Yun was about to get out of bed in anger, Zhaoer quickly pulled him over to coax him, "Don't be angry. Well, I'm just talking.
I don't doubt you, I just know the urine of those people in the house, and you are so beautiful, they don't care about taking advantage of you. That's weird."
Jiang Yun became more accommodating after hearing this, and said hesitantly: "Every time I go back to the house, I wear tight clothes. The clothes I brought back from Jiangnan, except I have never worn it out outside of home, and you still doubt me..."
"I know, my wife is the best. But..."
< br /> Zhao'er rolled his eyes, and suddenly seemed to be very energetic. He turned over and looked at Jiang Yun, and said with a smile: "No, then tell me honestly, do you and Mr. Lian have any? ...Huh?"
After Zhao'er asked, she was on guard against Jiang Yun's struggle, so she controlled her tightly.
"Don't be nervous, just tell the truth. After all, you were in the garden every day, helping the second master to discipline those stunning beauties and those little actors, so you must have met the second master often. Yes. If the second master falls in love with you, will you refuse? After all, our second master Lian is one of the most beautiful men in the world..."
Jiang Yun glanced at Zhao'er to confirm that he It was a joke, so he replied: "Bah, let's not say whether Mr. Lian likes me or not. Even if he does, what do you dare to do? Do you still want to ask him for an explanation?"
"Explanation?"
Zhao'er suddenly laughed proudly, which was a kind of conceited thought that could not be guessed at all.
"You are thinking too much. If the second master really falls in love with you, I will be happy before it is too late. How can I ask the second master for an explanation..."
Jiang Yun Wuyan looked at the two fools and looked at each other.
Zhaoer was very calm. He kissed Jiang Yun and said with a smile: "Don't look at me with such a surprised look, I'm serious.
I'm Zhao'er. What kind of thing is my son? Originally, I was just a slave for a few generations. I just put a few taels of silver outside and picked it up casually.
But now, look at it, I, Zhaoer, not only have my own big house to live in,, and I have such a beautiful wife who warms my bed every night. Among those guys in the house who used to show off their power, which one didn’t greet me with a smile when they saw me?
But I have long ignored them. I followed the Second Master, not only frequently in and out of the imperial palace, but also in the Mobei beyond the Great Wall, in the mountains of swords and seas of blood.
It can be said without politeness that I, Zhaoer, am now considered the number one person.
All of this is just because I was lucky enough to follow our second grandfather since I was a child! "
Jiang Yun listened silently and agreed with Zhao'er's words in her heart. Apart from anything else, she had never thought that she would eventually fall into the hands of a teenage slave Yangzi. !
The other party is indeed very lucky to have such a heroic and generous master.
But looking back and thinking about it, the slaves around Jia Lian are so Many, the fact that Zhaoer can be so favored by him is enough to show that Zhaoer has something that others don’t have.
“So, everything about me is given by the second master! Including you, it's the same, do you understand? "
Although what Zhao'er said was true, it was not pleasant to Jiang Yun's ears. As a woman, who doesn't want her man to stand upright?
Therefore She turned her head away and said, "You don't have to bother testing me. I'm just a ruined person. How could someone like the Marquis be interested in me?" Otherwise, he would not have given me to you in the first place. "
"That's true. "
Zhao'er said with regret. This reaction made Jiang Yun confused as to what to say.
How did she know what Zhao'er was thinking.< br />
Zhao'er has been following Jia Lian since he was a general. When Jia Lian was twelve or thirteen years old, he began to know the wind, flowers, snow and moon. Zhao'er was influenced by his ears and eyes, and he naturally learned quickly.
Jia Lian is not taboo about meat and vegetables. And with his status and suave appearance, Jia Lian has won over many maids and daughters-in-law in the two houses!
Among them, most of them are Zhao'er He knows the basics.
Even many of them are simply the strings he holds in the middle.
As a middleman, he naturally has benefits. One of them is that those who can be manipulated by Jia Lian Few of the girls and wives who are easy to get hold of are loyal.
As for Zhaoer, who is Jia Lian’s close servant, he naturally has a decent appearance. This secret back and forth naturally makes him By the way, I caught a lot of tail soup.
Even if Jia Lian knew about it, he wouldn’t mind.
This made ZhaoerHave fun waiting for others. After all, being able to have the same woman as your master is something to be proud of.
Sadly, such things are long gone.
I don’t know when the second master Lian changed his temper. Although she is still lustful, she can no longer look down on the young wives of the two houses.
Without Jia Lian to clear the way, they would naturally not have so many opportunities.
Therefore, Zhaoer asked Jiang Yun if he had a good relationship with Jia Lian. Apart from the perverted psychology in his heart, he just wanted to know whether Mr. Lian's horizons had simply improved with his status, or whether Really transitioned!
This will help him carry out his work of serving Jia Lian.
Thinking of gender change, Zhaoer couldn't help but think of the time when he married Jiang Yun.
That night when Jia Lian came down from the high hall, he pulled Jia Lian to a secluded place, pointed at the filthy new house and said: "I ate too much wine just now and my head is very dizzy. How about I go first?" Go in and help me see if the bride is beautiful..."
Zhao'er still remembers clearly what he was thinking at that time.
First of all, he still felt that it was too dreamy to marry the former most beautiful woman in Jiangnan. He felt that with his ability, he couldn't resist it.
Secondly, he also secretly suspected that the second master was afraid of being scolded by Second Mistress Lian and Miss Lin, and was embarrassed to accept this beauty, so he chose to keep her by his side. If he accepts it calmly, don't let a good thing turn into a bad thing.
Thirdly, even if the second master didn’t mean it, he was so generous to him, so he had to fulfill his filial piety no matter what, right?
Only if the second master is satisfied, more favors will come to him in the future.
He made a calculation, but all he got in exchange was a merciless kick from Jia Lian, who kicked him directly to the door of the room.
Thinking about this secret past, Zhaoer showed a proud smile on his face.
There were so many secrets between him and the second master that no one else knew. How could others compete with him for favor?
Just like this time, when he led people to beat the Zhao brothers like that, the second master not only did not punish him, but also kicked the Zhao brothers out!
Zhao'er's face showed a smile from the inside out, which made Jiang Yun beneath him slightly speechless.
It’s not a big deal. She has been living in the world for so many years and is used to seeing things in the world. She has also seen many people who are countless times more wretched than Zhaoer’s behavior at this time, so naturally she will not cause too much trouble. Big reaction.
"Get up, I'll fetch water."
Jiang Yun turned over, and just as she was getting out of bed, she heard Zhao'er say again: "By the way, don't think IJust said that, you can take advantage of outsiders at will! Except for the second master, if you dare to hook up with any other man, I will definitely destroy him like the Zhao brothers! "
Zhao'er's face, which still looked a little childish, showed a vicious look.
He really liked Jiang Yun, otherwise he would have arrested him in the first place , but Jia Lian didn’t want it, and he wouldn’t have the guts to ask Jia Lian for it on the spot.
There were hundreds of slaves in the two houses, and he felt that all their wives were not as good-looking as his. He was the only one. Only a slave can have this kind of happiness and glory. No one else can even think about it.
Jiang Yun looked at him silently, intending to say something to him, but in the end he nodded silently.< br />
Just after going out in thin clothes and facing the spring breeze on the porch, her mood finally changed.
