Jia Xie spoke very quickly.
Especially the words that described Lady Wang.
There was no pause in between. In fact, over the years, Jia Xie had to greet Lady Wang's ancestors in her heart almost every day. She didn't greet Jia Zheng.
Because they shared the same ancestor. But she could only greet in her heart and not say it out loud.
It really made him feel very sullen. Now she finally had a chance to vent.
Jia Xie felt much better.
The Jia Lian was stunned again.
Although he knew that his father didn't like Second Uncle and Second Aunt, he always thought that it was because they lived in Glory Hall. But it was the Old Madam's idea that Second Uncle and his wife lived in Glory Hall.
Even if his father was angry,
He couldn't resent the Old Madam, so he could only vent his anger on Second Uncle and Second Aunt. But judging from his father's words just now, it didn't seem to be the case. Compared to Second Uncle Jia Zheng, his father seemed to hate Lady Wang more.
The Jia Lian recalled Lady Wang's actions over the years.
Although Madam Wang wasn't as kind as outsiders thought, she wasn't as bad as his father said. Could it be that there was a misunderstanding somewhere? Maybe someone wanted to sow discord between the first and second branches?
The Jia Lian felt that there was a conspiracy.
It was a big conspiracy.
Therefore, his expression became serious and he asked solemnly, "Master, what is this?"
Did someone say something nonsense in front of you? Please tell me the truth. "
Jia Xie was still immersed in the pleasure of mocking Lady Wang. When the Jia Lian asked,
He didn't react for a moment.
"Tell me honestly? And who said something nonsense in front of me? What nonsense is that? "
The Jia Lian saw that his eyes didn't flicker.
He didn't look guilty. He was also a little confused and asked, "Master, why did you say those things? Second Aunt … Isn't she good? She also takes good care of her son. "
Jia Xie finally understood what it meant to be a Jia Lian. Her silly son still favored the second branch of the family!
Jia Xie felt that he should give the Jia Lian a heavy blow. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future for a benevolent father and a filial son. It was only right to lead his son onto the bright path first. After all, if one took too many small paths, it was easy to fall into the gutter.
Thinking of this, he clicked his tongue twice, shook his head, and said disappointedly, "Your mother and I are quite smart, how did we give birth to such a stupid son like you? You usually look quite smart, but when you meet those scheming people, you even help them count the money after being betrayed. "
The Jia Lian was not convinced and whispered, "How is my son stupid?"
Jia Xie said, "Didn't you come to Yangzhou to wait for your uncle to die? Then you can take all of the Lin family's property back to the capital? If you can take all of this money and keep it for yourself, Father won't say anything. But you only took a small portion of the money, and the rest was taken by others. You've worked so hard and racked your brains to do so many things, but in the end, you're only working for others. If you're not stupid, then what are you? "
"Master, what nonsense are you talking about!" Jia Xie said too bluntly. The Jia Lian was very embarrassed and tried to defend himself, "There is something you may not know. Uncle has already discussed it with the old lady. Sister Lin will marry Baoyu in the future. Uncle also said that everything of the Lin family will be left to Sister Lin as her dowry. Your son is just bringing Sister Lin's dowry back to our house in advance. "
"According to what you said, all of the dowry will be returned to Lin 'er in the future?"
The Jia Lian opened his mouth and wanted to say "yes" decisively, but when he saw the mocking smile on Jia Xie's face, he swallowed his words. The Lin family's money will be used to make up for the deficit in Rongguo Province. When Sister Lin grows up, who knows how much of it will be left! His father was also a scoundrel. If he said too much now, he would have to eat in the future. Therefore, he compromised and vaguely said, "In the future, Sister Lin will always be a person of our Rongguo Province." The hidden meaning was that her dowry will still be in Rongguo Province. It didn't matter if it was given or not.
"Do you think your good second aunt will let Lin 'er marry into the family? Don't forget, the first day Lin 'er went to Rongguo Province, she showed her power. At that time, Lin' er was only six years old. After that, your wife must have told you about her attitude towards Lin 'er. "
The Jia Lian always thought that Jia Xie didn't care about anything except women's antiques. He didn't expect that he would notice this. He was surprised and said disapprovingly, "Everything will be left to Old Madam! As long as Old Madam agrees, Second Aunt will have to accept it even if she doesn't want to. "
"The Wang Clan is not easy to accept. Why don't I tell you what she will do? "Jia Xie smiled mockingly and said," Isn't it easy to prevent Lin 'er from marrying Baoyu? As long as Baoyu is dead, the marriage will naturally be canceled. "
"Master, be careful with your words!" The Jia Lian was shocked. "Master, you are getting more and more ridiculous. If these words are spread, our Rongguo Province will be finished!"
"So what if Lin 'er is dead? You brought her back, and you brought the Lin family's money back. Even if someone wants to investigate the murder of an official's daughter and embezzlement of property, they will look for you. How can Rongguo Province be finished? When Old Madam cries, your good Second Uncle and Second Aunt will put justice before family and say that they didn't know anything about what you did. Then they will be able to get away with it. After all, you did everything, and they didn't have anything to do with it. In the end, only you will be sacrificed. Don't you think you are being sold and counting the money? But they are selling their bodies, but you are selling your life! "
The Jia Lian felt cold all over and his mind went blank … He wanted to yell at Jia Xie and say that she was wrong, but there was a voice in his heart that said, "Your father is right, you are a complete fool who was used by others."
Because he clearly remembered the greed in Lady Wang's eyes when she talked about the Lin family's wealth, and the disgust in her eyes when she mentioned Sister Lin. As for Old Madam … she had always been partial to the second branch. She would not let anything happen to Lady Wang for the sake of Baoyu.
The Jia Lian licked his lips and said with difficulty, "What benefits can they get by sacrificing me? Aren't they afraid that others will say that they are heartless? Old Madam can't even bear to punish the servants … "
"Benefits? Great benefits. The title of nobility in the imperial court will only be passed to the direct descendants, not the concubines. If you and I are dead, Rongguo Province and the title of nobility will rightfully belong to the second branch. "
"How can that be?" The Jia Lian was paralyzed and his face was ashen. He said in a trembling voice, "I am their nephew and grandson!"
"Otherwise, how do you think your mother and brother died?"
The Jia Lian was stunned and suddenly raised his head. The blood in his body froze, and he felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
"Master, you are wise. You guessed right." Wen Dongyan's face was full of joy. He stroked his beard and smiled. "The scabby-headed monk did go to the Xue family, and he did it for the Xue family's daughter."
Shuijing wanted to be modest, but he didn't expect Wen Dongyan to use the word "guessed." He had clearly gone through a round of deliberation. Shuijing didn't even bother to roll his eyes. Was it so difficult to admire him?
Shuijing pursed his lips. "Did he also ask the Xue family to abandon this girl?"
"Not this one." Wen Dongyan waved his fan and said, "Miss Xue is the same as Miss Lin. She has a congenital deficiency, and it seems that she suffers from phlegm disease. Xue family invited countless doctors and took a lot of medicine for her illness, but there was no effect. Then that scabby-headed monk appeared and said that Miss Xue had a heat poison from her womb. Ordinary medicine was useless, and she had to take the Sea Immortal medicine. He also gave her a packet of powder as a primer and made it into pills with other ingredients. He said that she would be fine after taking one pill every time she had a relapse. That's strange. Miss Xue's illness really was suppressed. "
Shuijing pondered for a moment. "Do you have the prescription?"
"The spy made a copy." Wen Dongyan's lips curled. "This medicine has a good name. It's called Cold Fragrance Pill."
So he beat around the bush just to pair Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai together?
Shuijing stared blankly at Wen Dongyan. He couldn't wrap his head around it. After a while, he said, "Isn't this going a bit too far?"
"From the current clues, this is the only conclusion this subordinate can come up with." Wen Dongyan glanced at Shuijing and raised his eyebrows. "Master was the one who connected Jia Baoyu, Miss Lin, and Miss Xue together. This subordinate is just making a further inference based on master's train of thought."
"But what's the point of Jia Baoyu marrying Xue Baochai?"
"Maybe … it's because they can give birth to a piece of gold and jade?" Wan Li, who had been watching from the wall for a long time, couldn't help but say.
Shuijing and Wen Dongyan stared at Wan Li in unison without saying a word. A fallen leaf drifted into the room with the breeze and slowly landed on the ground. There was silence.
Wan Li was a bit embarrassed by the stares. He rubbed his nose and laughed dryly. "I'll go back to make the medicine first. Call me if you need anything."
Shuijing nodded silently.
Wan Li stood up and walked two steps outside. Then, he turned back and put the prescription into his sleeve.
Shuijing was surprised. "Didn't you say that this prescription is useless? Why are you still holding it? "
"I'm sending it to my master to make him happy," Wan Li said frankly.
Shuijing: "…"
Wen Dongyan nodded. "Given the Valley Master's temperament, he will do that."
Shuijing pursed his lips. He and that old man had always been at odds. "Where were we just now?"
"Gold and jade …"
"…"
If they talked about gold and jade, he would really think that Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai would give birth to a piece of gold and jade!
Wen Dongyan glanced at Shuijing's expression. He coughed and finally got to the point. "Actually, there aren't many people who are related to the scabby-headed monk and the crippled Taoist priest. However, their attitudes are completely different. Didn't master want to deliberately ruin their plans? If we use simple and crude methods, we might be able to lure them out … "
Although Wen Dongyan didn't continue, Shuijing knew what he meant. As long as Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai disappeared from this world, the so-called problem would no longer be a problem. Moreover, if they were really important to the scabby-headed monk and the crippled Taoist priest, then the scabby-headed monk and the crippled Taoist priest would definitely appear when their lives were in danger.
However, Jia Baoyu was only eight years old and Xue Baochai was only ten years old. They hadn't done anything bad. Shuijing really couldn't do anything to them.
"Let's keep a close watch on them first. If Rongguo Province and Xue family really intend to form a marriage alliance, it won't be too late for us to make a move. "He turned his jade thumb ring with a serene gaze." It's only a few years. I can still afford to wait. "
In the courtyard of Fugui Ronghua, the Jia Lian was lying on the bed. He tossed and turned, unable to sleep. As soon as he closed his eyes, he seemed to feel the sharp sword hanging over his head. It was swaying and making a ferocious sound, which made people tremble with fear.
Jia Xie told the Jia Lian about Jia Hu's death, Zhang Xianfang's death, and her forbearance all these years. After that, she didn't say anything else. She just patted the Jia Lian's shoulder, sighed deeply, and left with her hands behind her back.
The Jia Lian stared blankly at Jia Xie's infinitely sad back. He suddenly realized that he had never known Jia Xie before.
