Because of Jia Daishan's illness,
The Wang family had been paying attention to this Jia family,
Wang Ziteng realized that..,
Duke Rongguo was so ill, but his sister didn't go to see Duke Rongguo.
Wang Ziteng was about to explode with anger. His father had already passed away, and the Wang family still needed to rely on the Jia family.
What exactly was in this sister's head? Wang Ziteng hurriedly sent his wife to Jia Zheng's residence.
To be honest..,
Wang Ziteng's wife didn't want to make this trip at all. When this sister-in-law was at home, she was always at odds with her sisters-in-law.
If this sister-in-law was abandoned by Duke Rongguo's residence, she would be more than happy. However, for the sake of her husband's future, she still had to rely on this sister-in-law.
"Sister-in-law, why are you here?" When the Jia Wang Clan saw Wang Ziteng's wife, they were a little impatient. To be honest..,
Such a big thing had happened yesterday..,
She was in a terrible state..,
The Jia Wang Clan's butler's methods were indeed not very clever..,
At this time, they were a little busy..,
They couldn't care about other things.
"Your brother asked me to come and tell you..,
Duke Rongguo is sick,
Why don't you go and take care of him? "Wang Ziteng's wife directly opened the door and asked.
"Isn't he pretending to faint?" The Jia Wang Clan was shocked. Was he really sick? She had also mentioned it to Jia Zheng yesterday, but Jia Zheng said that he was just pretending to be sick, deliberately making him embarrassed in front of Prince Zhongshun. What was there to go? He could go in a few days. If he went now, he would be scolded. "What are you pretending to be sick?
The imperial physician came to diagnose. He was angry and anxious, and had a stroke. The specific situation is not very clear, but looking at the imperial physician's expression, it's obviously not very good. Speaking of which, even if he's pretending to be sick, as juniors, you still have to take care of him by his bedside, "Wang Ziteng's wife was extremely angry. This sister-in-law was unreliable at home, and now that she was a wife, she was also unreliable. Could the elders not visit him just because they were pretending to be sick? Gossip was a fearful thing. Who knew what would spread in the future? It didn't matter if she was shameless, but she didn't want to implicate her daughter.
"Is he really sick? No, I have to tell Master to go back to Rongguo Province. "The members of the Jia Wang Clan became anxious.
"And Zhi 'er," Wang Ziteng's wife reminded.
"Zhi 'er?" Jia Wang Clan was a little hesitant. Her Zhi was so outstanding. What if he got sick?
Wang Ziteng's wife immediately understood what the Jia and Wang Clan were thinking. She knew that her sister-in-law treated her two children like the apple of her eye. She was afraid that Duke Rongguo would pass his illness to her Jia Zhu. "Don't forget that Zhi 'er will take the imperial examinations in the future. The most important thing in the imperial examinations is reputation. If he has an unfilial reputation, even if Zhi' er passes the imperial examinations in the future, he won't be put in an important position. Moreover, you're already one day late. With Zhi 'er around, Duke Rongguo might soften his heart for his grandson's sake," Wang Ziteng's wife reminded.
"Yes, I understand." Although the members of the Jia and Wang Clan were still unwilling, they were still persuaded.
"I'll go back first. Your brother is still waiting for my news at home." Wang Ziteng's wife turned and left. She sighed in her heart. Her sister-in-law was lucky to be able to marry into Rongguo Province. Although he was the second son of the first wife, once her brother-in-law stopped taking the imperial examinations, Duke Rongguo immediately got him a rank five official in the capital. Their master was also the second son of the first wife. Now that he was in the military camp, he had to be promoted one by one. If he didn't do it well, he would lose his life. The difference was really big.
After Wang Ziteng's wife left, the Jia and Wang Clan hurriedly went to Jia Zheng. Because of the big incident yesterday, Jia Zheng was too embarrassed to go out to socialize. Instead, he stayed in his concubine's room.
"Master, Madam's maid, Zhou Mama, is here. She said that Madam has something to tell you and asked you to go over," the maid in Zhou Mama's room reported.
"Oh, what's so important that Madam asked you to go over in such a hurry. She can't wait for even a moment." Zhou Mama pestered Jia Zheng. In her heart, she was disdainful of the Jia and Wang Clan. They had just moved in not long ago, but they were already acting like the madam of the family. "Master, didn't you say yesterday that the Nu 'er Hong here was delicious? Master, let's continue drinking? "Zhou Mama asked.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Jia Zheng felt that the Jia and Wang Clan were only looking for him for some trivial matter. It wasn't a big deal.
Zhou Mama's maid looked at the scene and smiled. Then she went out and said, "Sister Zhou, what's the matter? Master is drinking with my concubine right now. He's not free. Sister Zhou, why don't you come another time? "
Zhou Rui's wife was furious. She clenched her fists and said, "The Duke is sick. Madam asked Master to go back with her to take care of him. Can you afford to delay the time?" Zhou Rui's wife looked at Zhou Mama's maid and thought, Don't think that Zhou Mama can be arrogant in front of her just because she's been favored recently. Just wait and see.
"That's fine. Older Sister Zhou, please wait for a moment. This servant will go and report." The servant girl went in and spat. Yesterday, her master had already said that the Duke was only pretending to be sick. Madam wanted to use her virtue to win back her master's heart. Stop dreaming!
"Master, Zhou Mama is still outside. She said that Madam wants to invite you to visit the Duke," the maid reported.
"I didn't expect Madam to be so virtuous. Didn't Master say that the Duke was only pretending to be sick?" Zhou Mama pestered Jia Zheng.
"Don't worry about her. Ignorant woman, continue drinking," Jia Zheng said.
"Okay." Zhou Mama smiled. She touched her child. As long as she gave birth to the child, her position would be stable.
The Jia and Wang Clan had already bribed Jia Zhu. They reminded him carefully, "When you see Grandfather later, you must perform well and make him recover quickly. Do you understand?"
"Yes." Jia Zhu nodded.
The Jia and Wang Clan touched Jia Zhu's head and sighed in their hearts. They didn't know how the Duke's illness was. Although they had separated from the family, their Husband was still the Duke's son. With this name, no one in the capital dared to provoke him. However, if something happened to the Duke, their Master's life would be difficult in the future. After all, the son of the hereditary Duke was also their elder brother. The difference between an elder brother and a father was huge.
After waiting for a long time, Zhou Rui's family returned to the Jia and Wang Clan's courtyard.
"Why did you take so long? Where's Master?" The Jia and Wang Clan members were unhappy and asked.
Zhou Rui's family members pursed their lips and whispered, "Madam, don't be angry. Master is in Zhou Mama's room. He won't come out."
"How dare you!" The Jia and Wang Clan members slammed the table. She glanced at Jia Zhu beside her and tried to suppress the anger in her heart. She said softly, "Zhi 'er, wait here first. Madam will go and call Master now."
"Okay." Jia Zhu nodded and smiled obediently. When the Jia and Wang Clan members turned around, there was some sadness in their eyes.
The Jia and Wang Clan members took several servants and Zhou Rui's family members to Zhou Mama's room again. When the servant outside saw the Jia and Wang Clan members coming, she quickly knelt down to greet the Jia and Wang Clan members.
"Madam."
The Jia and Wang Clan members didn't even look at the servant on the ground. They directly walked past her and walked into the room.
"Madam …" The servant exclaimed. She didn't expect that the Jia and Wang Clan members would dare to barge in, knowing that Master Daoist was inside. The servant wanted to continue to stop them, but she was stopped by the servants brought by the Jia and Wang Clan members.
The Jia and Wang Clan members walked in directly and saw Jia Zheng drinking with Zhou Mama in his arms. His attitude made her feel disgusted.
"Why did you barge in? Get out." Jia Zheng felt a little guilty when he saw the Jia and Wang Clan members.
"I didn't want to barge in, but the Duke is terminally ill. Isn't it unfilial for him to drink and have fun here with Zhou Mama?" The Jia and Wang Clan members suppressed the anger in their hearts and said.
"Madam, how can you say that about him? The Duke is just pretending to be ill. Do you have to be like this?" Zhou Mama pinched her throat and said.
"Oh, even if he is pretending to be ill, he still has to take care of him. After all, he is the younger generation. It would be unfilial of him if he doesn't take care of him. Besides, he is really ill. There is news from Rongguo Province. Yesterday, the Duke was so angry that he had a stroke," the Jia and Wang Clan members said.
"What?" Jia Zheng didn't hold the wine cup firmly in his hand and it fell to the ground.
"Hurry up and pack up. Zhi 'er and I will wait for you outside." With that, the Jia and Wang Clan members turned and left. Before they left, they glanced at Zhou Mama. She better not fall into their hands.
After the Jia and Wang Clan members left, Zhou Mama went to Jia Zheng and wanted to call out to him. However, she was pushed away by Jia Zheng. He used so much strength that Zhou Mama fell to the ground. Zhou Mama clutched her stomach and wanted to call out to Jia Zheng, but Jia Zheng left without looking back. Zhou Mama looked at her wet lower body and hurriedly called the little girl in.
When the little girl saw Concubine Zhou's lower body, she screamed in fright. "Mama, you have a miscarriage. Please wait for a moment. I will go find Madam and ask her to call the doctor." The little girl helped Zhou Mama onto the bed and hurriedly walked to the Jia and Wang Clan's courtyard.
The little girl was quite lucky. Jia Zheng went back to change his clothes first before following the Jia and Wang Clan to Rongguo Province. The little girl hurried and finally found the Jia and Wang Clan members when they were boarding the carriage.
The little girl knelt in front of the Jia and Wang Clan members and cried, "Madam, our concubine has a miscarriage."
The Jia and Wang Clan members frowned. Seeing that there were bloodstains on the little girl's body, they were afraid that it was true. The Jia and Wang Clan members couldn't help but glance at Jia Zheng. Jia Zheng frowned and said guiltily, "I just pushed her. How would I know that she was pregnant? Moreover, she drank when she was pregnant. She is really careless."
Hearing Jia Zheng's words, the Jia and Wang Clan members felt a chill in their hearts. They said to the servant beside them, "Jin Cai, Zhou Rui's family will accompany me today. Go and get a doctor to take a look at Zhou Mama."
"Yes," Jin Cai replied.
After dealing with the matter, the Jia and Wang Clan members boarded the carriage and drove to Rongguo Province.
"Master, Master Zheng is here," Steward Xin of Rongguo Province, Ding Feng, said.
"Oh, he's here now." If possible, Jia Xie really wanted to stop Jia Zheng outside. "Let him in. Then go to Xi Province and invite Brother Jing over."
"Yes," Ding Feng hurriedly left.
"He's here. Zheng 'er, come with me to meet that disloyal and unfilial son of a bitch." Thinking of Jia Daishan lying in bed yesterday, Jia Jing's heart was filled with hatred. If Second Uncle took good care of himself, he might be able to live for a few more years. Jia Zheng was so angry that Second Uncle had a stroke, which triggered his unmentionable illness. He might not be able to live through this year. It was really hateful.
"Yes," Jia Zhen hurriedly followed Jia Jing to Xi Province.
In Xi Province, Jia Min and her husband were still there. Because Jia Daishan was sick, Jia Jing and Lin Ruhai had both asked for leave.
"Mother, Second Brother is here. He's waiting outside now," Jia Min said as she looked at Jia Daishan's mother, who was wiping his face. Last night, Lin Ruhai and Jia Xie had been keeping watch in Jia Daishan's room. After dawn, Jia Min and Jia Min had been keeping watch here, trying to make sure that Jia Daishan was always there.
"Then let him wait." Jia Min's mother was a little disappointed. She had always doted on Jia Zheng the most. Her father was sick, but he only came over the next day. Even though it was not far away, it only took him half an hour to arrive by carriage.
"Okay." Jia Min walked to the basin and soaked a new handkerchief in water. After wringing it dry, she handed it to Jia Daishan's mother and asked her to use the new handkerchief to wipe Jia Daishan's face. After washing the new handkerchief in the basin, she would give it to Jia Min's mother.
Jia Zhen was left outside Pear Garden. He looked very good. The Jia Wang Clan and Jia Zhu were fine. However, Jia Zhu was young and the weather was hot. Before long, he was a little shaky. The Jia Wang Clan looked at Jia Zhu and felt very distressed. They wanted to let Jia Zhu rest under the shade of a tree, but they were scolded by Jia Zheng.
"If he can't even bear this little hardship, what can he do in the future? His grandfather is still sick inside, "Jia Zheng said angrily.
The Jia Wang Clan was angry and wanted to refute. At this time, Jia Zhu reached out and held the Wang Clan's hand. He shook his head and said, "Mother, I'm fine. Grandfather's illness is more important."
The Jia Wang Clan held Jia Zhu's hand and smiled reluctantly. They continued to wait outside, but they were very angry. If it were not for Jia Zheng, her Zhi 'er would not have suffered like this. Jia Zheng still had the face to lecture her Zhi' er. It was ridiculous.
Jia Zheng turned around and looked at the door of Pear Garden. He clenched his fists. He had never suffered so much in the Jia family. When he saw his mother, he must tell her.
Just as Jia Zhu was about to collapse, Jia Jing, Jia Xie, Jia Zhen, and Lin Ruhai came.
"To Elder Brother!" Jia Zheng quickly bowed to Jia Jing.
Jia Zhu and the Jia Wang Clan also wanted to bow to Jia Jing, but as soon as Jia Zhu bent down, he blacked out and fell down.
"Zhi 'er …" The Jia Wang Clan exclaimed.
"Zheng, quickly carry Zhi 'er inside and let the imperial physician treat him." Jia Jing looked at Jia Zhu. This child was a good child, but it was a pity that he had such a father.
"Yes." Jia Zhen quickly carried Jia Zhu and walked to Pear Garden.
"To Elder Brother!" Jia Zheng said embarrassedly, "This child doesn't know any better. Please don't blame him."
"Why should I blame Zhi 'er? There's shade there. Why didn't you let Zhi' er wait under the shade? It's such a hot day and Zhi 'er is so young. You made a mistake and you even dragged Zhi' er to be punished. You're really something." Jia Jing sneered.
"Zhi 'er is his father's grandson. He should be filial. He was the one who refused to go under the shade." Jia Zheng defended himself.
The Jia Wang Clan glanced at Jia Zheng and wanted to tear Jia Zheng apart.
"Ha." Jia Jing sneered and said, "Come in. You came at the right time. Second Uncle has something to tell you. You better listen to him." Jia Jing led the way and brought Jia Zheng to the outer hall of Pear Garden.
After entering Pear Garden, Jia Zheng wanted to go to the bedroom to see Jia Daishan, but he was stopped.
"Elder Brother Jing, what is the meaning of this?" Jia Zheng was anxious and angry.
"Don't be anxious. Take a seat first," Jia Jing said to Jia Zheng.
