————————————————————

Jia Lian supported the drunken Jia She, Jia Baoyu hugged the sleeping Brother Chun, and Jia Huan pulled the silent Jia Cong unhappily, and swayed into the carriage back home.

I thought that I could have a good night's sleep when I returned to the mansion, and I could even warm my feet before going to bed.Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered Ningrong Street, he was stopped by Long'er. He saw Jia Amnesty leaning on the side of the car and sleeping soundly, Jia Baoyu and Chun Ge'er hugged each other, and Jia Huan and Jia Cong were also sleeping next to each other. sweet.

Jia Lian had no choice but to rejoice, seeing that Jia She was drinking happily before, he didn't dare to drink more, and at this time he was the only one who was still sober.

After Jia Lian got out of the car, he put down the curtain to prevent the wind from entering.Then he walked up to Long'er and asked, "Your grandma asked you to come and wait?" Long'er nodded, then shook his head and said, "Master Zheng is back, and now he is still in the old lady's room. Grandma is afraid I don't know if I'm away, so I ordered the younger one to wait here and wait for my grandfather to come back."

Jia Lian narrowed his eyes when he heard this, how else could he be father and son?Jia Lian's actions and expressions are more and more like Jia Amnesty.

Jia Lian frowned and thought for a while before asking, "Do you know why he came back suddenly? Did he ask for leave to visit relatives? Or was he transferred back to Beijing?" Long'er looked at the carriage not far behind Jia Lian, and said in a low voice, "I may not believe what I said. Mr. Zheng was dismissed from office. It is said that there was a big disturbance in office."

Speaking of this, Long'er couldn't help laughing and said: "However, Master Zheng came back this time, not only himself, but also a young aunt who said he was five or six months pregnant."

Jia Lian couldn't help the corners of his eyes twitching when he heard it, and hurriedly asked: "Is this true?" Without waiting for Long'er to answer, he continued to ask: "Where did you find out? But you saw it with your own eyes? That girl, No, where is that aunt from? But she went out from our house? Which family does she belong to? Have you found out clearly? "

Long'er didn't expect Jia Lian to ask so many questions in one breath. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "I didn't see it with my own eyes. It was my grandma who asked me to report to the master. I only know that the aunt was brought back by Mr. Zheng from office. Yes, I don’t know about the other little ones, so go back and find out about the little ones.”

After Jia Lian heard this, he nodded and said, "That's fine, you go and inquire about this matter." After speaking, he looked back at the carriage and said to the driver, "Drive the carriage to the East Courtyard." Then he waved to Long'er After waving his hand, he returned to the car. The people in the car didn't wake up because the carriage stopped or started again.

Back in the East Courtyard, Wang Xifeng came out to pick up Brother Chun, and Brother Cong was also picked up by Aunt Juan.Only Jia Baoyu and Jia Huan were left, and Jia Lian didn't know what to do for a while.

Just at this time Jia Amnesty woke up and asked in a daze, "Why don't you go home?" Jia Lian had no choice but to reply: "Father, you have arrived." As soon as Jia Amnesty heard it, he barely opened his eyes and went to the car Climbing outside, he almost fell off the car, but fortunately Jia Lian had quick eyesight and quick hands, plus he had practiced some boxing skills over the years, and was able to catch him.

After Jia Amnesty was sent to the inner courtyard and Mrs. Xing took over, Jia Lian returned to the outer courtyard and looked worried at the two people in the car.But no matter whether he was worried or not, Jia Lian had to send them back. After thinking about it, he got into the car himself, drove the car to the west corner gate, and entered the main courtyard of Jia's mansion.

First, Jia Baoyu was sent to the small courtyard next to Jia Zheng's study in the outer courtyard. The maids hurriedly carried him in. Jia Lian frowned when he looked at Jia Huan. Jia Lian also had feelings for that Aunt Zhao What I heard, I was extremely unwilling to deal with him, so I called the two wives, sent him back, and went back to the east courtyard by myself.

There was nothing to say all night, and at breakfast the next day, Jia Lian saw that Jia Amnesty was fully awake, so he mentioned Jia Zheng's affairs. Jia Amnesty was also taken aback when he heard that, and asked quickly, "Why did you come back?" Jia Lian looked at Wang Xifeng. , Wang Xifeng briefly explained a few words.

Just a few words, even though Wang Xifeng didn't know the whole story, but Jia She had already figured it out in his mind, so he ordered: "If you are called, you go, if you are not called, just stay in the yard." She then started to eat on his own.

Not long after Jia Amnesty left, Wang Xifeng thought of going to visit Daiyu outside the city with an excuse, and hid there, but after thinking about it, she couldn't feel at ease, so she took Jia Lian to the old lady Jia's yard together.

At this time, Mrs. Jia's room was already in a state of chaos. Mrs. Wang no longer looked as graceful and luxurious as she used to. Not only was her face pale, but even her bun was completely faded, and a black wide forehead was tied on her forehead. , wearing a lake blue half-worn robe.

Neither Jia Lian nor Wang Xifeng had ever seen such Mrs. Wang, so how could there be any joy and lust of "mother, mother"?At this moment, he was staring at the ground resentfully, not knowing what he was thinking.

Jia Baoyu saw Mrs. Wang for the first time in more than a month, although he was angry and resentful before.But at this moment, there is only a lot of heartache left.Sitting next to Mrs. Wang, and no longer cuddling in Mrs. Jia's arms.

Jia Zhengduan sat on the right side of the old lady Jia, and beside her was a [-]-year-old young woman wearing an autumn-colored robe and a peach-red silk silk robe. Her protruding abdomen showed that she was pregnant with Liujia, and she was dotted with red gold and emerald hairpins. , on her jet-black bun, it looked extraordinarily dazzling.

At this time, the young woman was looking at Jia Zheng shyly, and even secretly looked up at the old lady Jia who was sitting on it with her eyes closed and silent, but her expression was indescribably smug.From time to time, she looked at Mrs. Wang who was sitting opposite her withered, her eyes were full of disdain.

When Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng arrived, they saw such a clear-cut scene.Old lady Jia was still sitting on the red sandalwood arhat bed, and Yuanyang was rubbing her temples constantly.

Seeing Jia Lian and his wife coming in, everyone in the room turned their heads except Mrs. Wang. The young woman was sitting on a chair, holding her abdomen with one hand, and circling continuously with the other hand on her stomach, facing Wang Xifeng. He smiled "reservedly and kindly" with Jia Lian.Even Mrs. Jia opened her eyes at this moment.

Wang Xifeng frowned deeply, glanced at Mrs. Wang and Baoyu, followed Jia Lian and saluted Mrs. Jia, and then saluted Jia Zheng.Jia Zheng nodded, and was about to introduce the young woman next to him, when Jia Lian turned around and saluted Mrs. Wang, "I've seen you." Mrs. Wang seemed to ignore her.

Seeing this, Mrs. Jia looked at Mrs. Wang with a colder expression, and Jia Baoyu hurriedly got up to salute Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, which was considered a distraction from this episode.

Jia Lian turned back to look at the chairs on both sides, just in time to see the cold light flashing in the young woman's eyes, Jia Lian couldn't help but sneered inwardly.He was not in a hurry to sit down, but turned his head to look at Jia Baoyu.Seeing that Jia Baoyu did not sit down after saluting, he still stood aside.

Seeing this, Jia Lian nodded and said to Jia Baoyu, "Sit down next to your aunt." Then she and Wang Xifeng sat on the empty seat beside Jia Baoyu.

Jia Lian's choice, not to mention other people did not understand, even Wang Xifeng did not understand.But I couldn't help being happy in my heart!After all, Mrs. Wang is her own aunt. No matter what happens on weekdays, it is a matter between her family.Now that Jia Lian chose to be with her, how could she not be grateful?
Old lady Jia hadn't forgotten what happened more than a month ago, she was very puzzled seeing this, but Jia Baoyu looked over with red eyes, but Jia Lian just smiled at him and nodded.Old Mrs. Jia couldn't help feeling an epiphany in her heart, but she couldn't tell what it was.

Mrs. Wang finally reacted at this moment, she looked at Jia Lian in disbelief, and then at Wang Xifeng.Both Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian smiled back at her, but they didn't know that Mrs. Wang was cursing inwardly at this moment: "Post-posing villain!"
At this time, the old lady Jia took a sip of the teacup, coughed lightly and said to Jia Zheng: "This was originally your housework, and my old lady didn't want to take care of it, but now that it has come to me , there must be a charter. The second child also talk about what the idea is."

For a moment, both Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu couldn't help looking at Jia Zheng, but Mrs. Wang lowered her head again and looked at the floor in the middle, without saying a word.

Jia Zheng looked at Jia Lian and his wife and Jia Baoyu with a frown, then stood up and bowed to the old lady Jia, "This poisonous woman not only dares to steal public finances, but even dares to give us usury behind my back, making a black heart and a rotten liver." The money! I absolutely can't want her anymore! I beg the old lady to make the decision and divorce her!"

Jia Zheng's words made the young woman smile even wider, but Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian frowned.Jia Baoyu looked anxiously at the silent Mrs. Wang, then at the expressionless old lady Jia, and couldn't help but look back at Jia Lian.His eyes were full of pleading and helplessness.

Seeing this, Jia Lian sighed and stood up, and bowed to the old lady Jia. Before he could speak, Jia Zheng said coldly, "Is there a place for you to talk here?" It's my uncle's family matter, my nephew has no reason and no right to say anything."

Just as Jia Zheng wanted to nod his head, he didn't want Jia Lian, but he said to the old lady Jia: "But old lady, don't forget, aunt is the mother of the virtuous concubine in the palace, not to mention that the mother is going to visit her relatives soon, even if it spreads out, it will not be good for her reputation. Good. Besides, the matter of usury has been dealt with, and there is nothing wrong with it."

After Jia Lian finished speaking, he took a deep breath and said, "Who has never made mistakes in life since ancient times? Knowing mistakes can make a big difference. Why bother to beat him to death?"

Jia Lian's words not only made the young woman's complexion ugly, but also made the old lady Jia's eyes full of disbelief, Jia Baoyu's eyes full of gratitude, and Mrs. Wang cried out with a "wow" when Jia Lian said the previous sentence.Wang Xifeng hurried to Mrs. Wang's side, hugged Mrs. Wang in her arms and let her cry.

Mrs. Wang cried for a while, as if venting all the grievances in her heart and calming down, Mrs. Wang pushed Wang Xifeng away, thinking in her heart: fake compassion and fake kindness!If you were really so kind, why bother?On the face, Mrs. Wang looked up at Jia Zheng with tears in her eyes, but Jia Zheng didn't dare to look at her for some reason.

Wang Xifeng thought for a while, stood up, raised her eyebrows and said to Jia Zheng with a sneer: "My aunt has been with my uncle for decades, and there is no credit but hard work, right? No matter how many faults there are, don't look at it for others' sake? Don't you even look at your mother's face?" Wang Xifeng looked like her mother's family at this time, which made it difficult for Jia Zheng to say anything.
