Jia Xie cried until her tears and snot were flowing,
She looked very embarrassed.
Shuijing felt a headache when he heard that. "Alright,
Get up quickly and stop crying,
I'll make the decision for you. With me here, no one can hurt Jia Lian. "
Jia She abruptly stopped crying and burped loudly, "Master, I'm sorry."
Is what you said true? "
"True, true. When have I ever lied to you? Hurry up and get up. "
Of course, he had lied,
And more than once. But those were all to mess with him,
He was still quite reliable when it came to business.
Jia Xie muttered in her heart. After standing up, she reminded him worriedly, "Master, you must remember. Don't forget."
Why didn't he realize that Jia Xie was so?? ..
Shuijing rolled his eyes,
He couldn't be bothered with him anymore.
Lin Ruhai was completely confused,
He didn't understand why Jia Xie was more like a victim than him. He finally came back to his senses,
He couldn't help but say angrily, "Jia Xie, what do you mean!? Are you saying that I'm falsely accusing you and your father? "
Jia Xie sniffed hard,
She looked at Lin Ruhai from the corner of her eyes,
She sneered, "It was the old lady who harmed you and Minmei previously,
It's written in black and white. Don't try to push the blame onto me. " Humph! So what if Minmei is the daughter of the Jia family,
So what if brother Mo is the grandson of the Jia family,
My Hu Ge'er is the eldest grandson of the Jia family,
Didn't Old Madam Fu also watch as he was killed by others? The old lady didn't mean to Minmei and brother Mo,
She never thought of harming them. My Hu Ge'er is the one who has the bad luck of eight lifetimes to have such a grandmother who wants him to die early. "
"You, you mean …" Lin Ruhai widened his eyes and opened his mouth, almost speechless.
As the saying goes, don't wash your dirty linen in public. Other people's pickles? They wanted nothing more than to keep this matter under wraps for fear that outsiders would find out. The Jia Xie didn't feel embarrassed at all. She couldn't wait to tell everyone in the world about her family. This matter.
"Who in the entire capital doesn't know that my Brother Lian is living with the second family and is helping Jia Zheng with the housework. He doesn't look like the heir of Rongguo Province at all. He can't even order the servants of Rongguo Province, so how can he order Minmei's escorts? " Jia Xie sneered, "Old Madam wants to give all the good things to the second branch. She even gave Brother Lian's place in the Imperial College to Jia Zhu. Unfortunately, Jia Zhu did not have the fortune to enjoy it. He had received too many blessings that were not supposed to be his, so he died of exhaustion. Why do you think the Old Madam is still getting involved in the fight for the throne at such an old age? Isn't it just to pave the way for her precious phoenix egg that was born from Hanyu? "
"Rongguo Province is no longer the same as when you married Minmei. The masters don't do anything productive, but the masters and servants are rich, honorable, and pay attention to ostentation. The Wang Clan likes to be Pi Xiu. They took almost all of Rongguo Province's money, so they symbolically gave Brother Lian's wife the power to manage the household. In fact, she is still the one in charge of the household. My wife is also stupid. She thought that the Wang Clan was worried about her, so she fought for the limelight everywhere to show off. Clearly, Rongguo Province is already unable to make ends meet, but she still desperately held on and secretly pawned her dowry to make up for Rongguo Province's deficit. The Old Madam's heart is like a mirror. How can this be hidden from her? She just doesn't want to admit that Rongguo Province has already lost. "
Lin Ruhai became more and more alarmed as he listened. Jia Min often talked about Rongguo Province's grandeur and grandeur at home. Even the third-class servants ate and wore much better than the madams and young ladies of wealthy families. When he married Jia Min, he also went to Rongguo Province many times. He also agreed with Jia Min's words. He didn't expect that in just a short ten years, Rongguo Province would become so bleak. He even had to rely on his wife to pawn her dowry to maintain the family's daily expenses.
Shuijing and Wen Dongyan thought highly of Jia Xie. They thought that he had lived a muddle-headed life all these years, but they didn't expect him to understand better than anyone else.
"Do you want to know why those escorts only took over the fields and finances? It's because these can be exchanged for shining silver. I don't know if Brother Lian knows about this, but I'm sure that most of this money went into the pockets of the second branch. " Jia Xie said hatefully, "In the future, if we investigate, the second branch won't be implicated. The crime will all be my Brother Lian's. Brother Lian's served them sincerely for so many years. They can really bear to make him a scapegoat for the sake of a lousy title. "
Lin Ruhai opened his mouth and said with difficulty, "Second Brother-in-law is modest and kind … are you … misunderstanding?"
"Modest and kind? Old Madam is kind and benevolent! "Jia Xie said sarcastically," Let's not talk about anything else. Let's talk about my niece, Daiyu. Ah, Brother-in-law, you were very affectionate to Minmei and Mo'er just now. Why are you so cruel to your only daughter? You only let her take a mama and a maid to the capital. Aren't you afraid that she will be bullied to death? "
Lin Ruhai felt the blood in his body turn cold. His ears were buzzing, "What do you think happened to Daiyu? She didn't have a good life in Rongguo Province? "
"Do you know which gate Daiyu used to enter Rongguo Province?" Jia Xie laughed, "It was the corner gate. This is Daiyu's status in Rongguo Province. "
Lin Ruhai's blood rushed to the top of his head. His vision turned black.
Shuijing and Wen Dongyan also didn't expect that Rongguo Province would treat Lin Daiyu like this. Lin Daiyu was the daughter of a second-rank official and the granddaughter of Rongguo Province. Although she couldn't use the main gate, she could use the side gate.
Doors usually represented a very strong color of rank. The main gate was usually only opened when there was a wedding or a funeral, or when there was an elder, a high-ranking official, or a noble person. If Jia Min brought Lin Daiyu back to Rongguo Province, they could also use the main gate. If they used the side gate, their status would naturally be lower than the host's. On the other hand, Jiaomen was mostly used by servants and people of low status to avoid bumping into people of high status.
Jia Xie probably felt that Lin Ruhai's lightning strike wasn't severe enough. She continued, "The servants in Rongguo Province are the most powerful. They are used to flattering the powerful and stepping on the weak. When Daiyu entered Rongguo Province in such a shabby manner, they all thought that Daiyu was a poor relative who came to ask for money! You don't believe me. Even if you let Daiyu hold a priceless book, those people can only smell the smell of poverty. If you let Daiyu hold a gold ingot, they will worship her as if she was their ancestor. Moreover, those people are all talkative and love to gossip about their masters. Daiyu listens to these gossips all day long. Do you think she can live well? "
The person sitting up there didn't say anything and just sat down. Lin Ruhai didn't know if he should silently criticize Jia Xie for being unruly or admire her courage. But no matter which it was, he didn't dare to imitate her. He could only lower his head and stand in place cautiously.
Shuijing was looking at Lin Ruhai with her eyes wide open.
Wen Dongyan and Lin Ruhai were classmates. Back then, one was the top scholar and the other was the third. They were both talented and good-looking. They were both around 20 years old. It was said that when they were parading through the streets, young ladies threw money bags and flowers at them.
Shuijing didn't see Lin Ruhai when he was young. But according to the custom of choosing the youngest and most beautiful person, Lin Ruhai should be better looking than Wen Dongyan. But looking at their current appearances, people would believe that Lin Ruhai was Wen Dongyan's father.
However, that idiot Retired Emperor had bad eyesight and couldn't tell good from bad. It was possible that he mistakenly thought that Lin Ruhai was better looking than Wen Dongyan. After all, the top three were chosen by the Emperor and the examiners from the candidates who participated in the Court Examination. But the rankings of these three were decided by the Emperor himself. After the Emperor set the rankings, the people below didn't dare to say to the Emperor, "Are you blind? Can't tell the difference between good and bad?"
Shuijing was a bit regretful. If only he had been in the capital at that time. Others didn't dare to say it, but he did. How could he have missed such an occasion to laugh at Retired Emperor's blindness?
Thinking of this, Shuijing was even more depressed. So he viciously despised Retired Emperor in his heart. Only when his mood improved did he put his attention back on Lin Ruhai. Seeing that he was still standing there, he couldn't help but wonder, "Why are you still standing? This prince didn't call you here to punish you. "
Shuijing didn't have any other meaning when he said this. The people around him were all people who didn't wait for him to give them a seat and found a place to sit. Of course, he also allowed them to be impolite in certain areas. Therefore, when he met Lin Ruhai, this kind of honest person who adhered to the rules, he didn't react in time.
But when Lin Ruhai heard this, he thought that Shuijing was trying to intimidate him. He couldn't help but feel even more nervous. Even when he sat down, he only dared to touch half of the chair.
After Lin Ruhai sat down, three delicate and pretty manservants entered in a single file. They served tea to each of them, bowed, and left.
The Jia Xie was the first to pick up the tea. He took a big gulp, not caring that it was hot. He was about to die from exhaustion. He urgently needed strong tea to wake himself up and watch the show that was about to unfold.
Lin Ruhai was a bit restless. He didn't have any interest in the fragrant tea.
Shuijing picked up the teacup and gently blew on the tea leaves in the cup. He took a sip and slowly asked, "Official Lin, do you know why this prince called you here?"
Lin Ruhai said, "This official is slow. Your highness, please tell me."
Shuijing unhurriedly used the lid of the teacup to stir the tea leaves. He slowly said, "A few days ago, there was a farmer who lived on the outskirts of the city who came into the city to cry out for justice. He said that someone was using fake documents to take over his family's land and house. It was a pity that he was chased out when he went to the yamen. This prince happened to meet him."
