Chapter 141 The fate of the Lai family
After Jia Yun left, most of the people left in the hall were people from Xifu. Thinking of what happened today, Jia's mother couldn't help but have a headache.
"Old lady, are you okay? If you feel tired, take a short rest to recuperate your spirits."
Li Wan saw that Jia's mother was in poor spirits, so he expressed concern.
Jia Mu looked at Li Wan and said, "I'm fine, but you've worked hard today."
Li Wan heard this and responded hurriedly: "This is what grandson-in-law should do, it doesn't matter."
"How is Brother Lang?" Jia Mu continued to ask.
Li Wan replied: "Brother Lan is studying at this time, nothing else."
Jia Mu nodded when she heard this, without saying anything, and then said: "Then you go back first! It's not good for Brother Liu Lan to be alone." Li Wan looked as usual, bowed and then left:
"Then grandson's wife will go back first."
After saying that, Li Wanlian moved lightly and retreated...
In this regard, no one said anything. After all, everyone in the mansion knew that Grandma Zhu had always ignored the affairs of the mansion and focused on raising her young son.
After Li Wan left, Jia Mu looked at Wang Xifeng and his wife who were kneeling on the ground and said angrily: "Who are you showing me like that? Get up!"
Jia Lian, who had been silent all the time, and Wang Xifeng, who looked resentful, stood up, but Jia Lian became disgusted with Wang Xifeng. In a situation like this today, he was simply tricked by Wang Xifeng. He had no idea what Wang Xifeng did. What happened today
As a result, Jia Lian, as her husband, could only kneel down to apologize.
Thinking of this, Jia Lian said angrily to Wang Xifeng: "You are the same, the government is short of your money, so you have to do these embarrassing things."
When Wang Xifeng heard this, she suddenly felt chilled. This was also what her husband said. Is she doing this to save money for herself? She lost all the interest money, and all of it was used to supplement the monthly salary of the government. Now she is complaining.
As far as she is concerned, if Jia Lian is responsible, she will not do such a thing. Her husband is not as considerate as her nephew. At least the nephew understands her suffering.
Wang Xifeng, who was angry, said aggrievedly: "I'm not short of money, so I'm worried about this. I'm not tired of making loan sharks to collect money. It's just to make more money for daily necessities and less money. If I hadn't collected thousands of dollars,
Wan Ni, I don’t know what kind of shabby kiln I’ve been to, but now I’ve fallen into the trap of being a shabby person, and I can’t get a good deal.”
Just as he was talking, Wang Xifeng cried: "This housekeeper's life is hopeless."
Jia Mu also felt pity for her caring grandson-in-law, and scolded Jia Lian: "Who are you showing your face to? Your daughter-in-law also comes from a wealthy family. She can take a fancy to these petty profits. If it weren't for you men who have no future,
Why would you put down your dignity and do such a despicable thing?"
Jia She didn't dare to be disrespectful to Jia's mother, Jia Lian even less dared. When Jia's mother scolded him, Jia Lian hurriedly replied: "It's my grandson's fault, old lady, please calm down."
"Humph." Jia Mu snorted coldly and immediately ignored Jia Lian.
At this time, Jia She, an old man, said: "Mother, I really didn't expect these beasts to dare to embezzle the property of the house. It's a good thing to dispose of them all now."
After pondering for a moment, Jia She said carefully: "Old lady, the most important thing right now is to quickly check the homes of these servants and copy back all the land deeds, house deeds and so on. Then our house will not be so short of money in the future. Already."
Jia Mu glanced at Jia She, but ignored her. She looked around at the faces of everyone in the hall, and finally landed on Wang Xifeng's face. She ordered: "Girl Feng, take some available people to greet you and go to Dongfu. Ask Brother Yun to send some manpower to take custody of all the mothers-in-law and daughter-in-laws associated with the Lai family, the Wu family, the Shan family, the Zhou family, the Lai family, the Zhao family, the Li family, etc. If anyone dares to cause trouble, he will be beaten directly. Kill the account, in short, after today, the Jia family will not allow any slaves who are more impressive than the master!"
There is a saying that Jia Yun said well. In the past, it was because he was too good to these slaves that he raised such unscrupulous slaves. Looking at the shocking accounts, Jia's mother almost couldn't recover.
Only with precise numbers can we be more intuitive. If we just talk about it, Jia Mu will not pay so much attention to it.
When Wang Xifeng heard that Jia Mu still handed over the power to her, she felt happy and said hurriedly: "Ancestor, don't worry, I won't embarrass you!"
Jia She twitched his lips when he heard this, wondering how much his mother disliked him.
Then Jia Mu said to Yuanyang: "You are also going together. I don't need you to take care of me for the time being. Amber and the others will be fine. Brother Yun has no other prejudices in his heart. Don't take it to heart and take good care of the master." That’s it.”
When Jia Yun refused to let the Yuanyang follow, Jia Mu noticed the strange color of the Yuanyang. It is true that now the Yuanyang was nominally rewarded to Jia Yun by Jia Mu, but the roots were still with Jia Mu. The interpersonal relationship They all belong to the Xifu like slave contracts, so it is natural that they should be separated from Jia Yun.
Now that Jia Mu has spoken, Yuanyang has nothing to say, but once something happens between the two houses, or there is a conflict between Jia Mu and Jia Yun, Yuanyang will not be a human being inside and out, and it will be really difficult... ............
.............................
On the other hand, Jia Yun returned to Daoning Mansion from the corridor between the two houses and went directly to the front hall.
At this time, in the front hall, Li Guobang led Xu Qing and others to wait. There were dozens of large boxes in the hall, which seemed to be heavy.
"I've met my uncle."
As soon as Jia Yun stepped into the front hall, everyone stood up and saluted.
"You all have a seat, you're welcome." Jia Yun greeted and immediately sat on the main seat.
Qingwen Xiangling thoughtfully handed over the tea cup and stood aside politely.
Qingwen is a bitchy girl, and she doesn't have any rules on weekdays, but fortunately she is only in front of Jia Yun. If others are around, the maid still does her duty well.
Jia Yun took a sip from the tea cup, and his throat felt much better. His mouth had already been dry since he had spent so much time talking.
At this time, Li Guobang stood up and reported: "Uncle, the Lai family's mansion has been confiscated by my subordinates, and the belongings are here together with them."
Jia Yun looked at the dozen or so large boxes under the hall and knew in his mind that all the items that could be moved into the hall were valuable. Now they were all confiscated, making the Jia family rich.
Just when Jia Yun was satisfied, Li Guobang looked hesitant. When Jia Yun saw this, he said with a smile: "If Deputy Counselor Li has anything to say, just tell him."
Li Guobang heard this and said cautiously: "Back to my uncle, according to reports from people below, after Lai's son Lai Er was imprisoned in the small courtyard, he learned that the Lai family was ransacked and insulted him, saying...
Uncle Jia of the Duke of Xianning was angry to death because he was said to be disobedient and unfilial and committed patricide."
Jia Yun's expression remained unchanged and he said calmly: "Don't pay attention to the barking of dogs."
Just a few domestic slaves want to "slander" Jia Yun? It can be said that unless Jia's mother files a petition, otherwise no one will believe this matter, and at most there will be rumors of discord between father and son.
words.
Li Guobang saw that Jia Yun didn't care, so he didn't say much. Instead, he asked, "How do you plan to deal with these ungrateful slaves?"
Jia Yun's eyes were sharp and he said: "Gather all those slaves in the yard, beat the two slaves Lai Da Lai'er to death in front of everyone, and warn those slaves that they will embezzle the master's property and rely on the Duke's government.
This is the fate of those who are powerful and bully men and women.”
Jia Yun's purpose of beating him to death in front of everyone was to shock everyone. According to Jia Yun's thinking, those women who make the decision in Xifu estimated that many people would be treated with mercy outside the law. In this case, if they are not shocked,
, how can we curb the greed in their hearts.
To be honest, as long as the culprit is punished, no one knows that the next group of people will be able to keep their peace, and as long as the sneak card does not demand too much, Jia Yun will turn a blind eye.
When Li Guobang and others heard this, they didn't think it was too much. After all, the Lai family had embezzled so much property that no other family would be able to keep him. It would not be an exaggeration to kill him.
"As for the rest of the Lai family, they will be sent to Shuntian Mansion Office. It will be decided by the government how to punish them.
All the people from Duke Ning's mansion were sent to the government office. As for those from Duke Rong's mansion...
Deputy Counselor Li will leave some brothers to watch over them and let the ladies and gentlemen of Rong Mansion deal with them."
"Yes, I will obey your uncle's order." Li Guobang promised.
Then, Jia Yun said to everyone kindly: "This is a private matter of the Duke's office, but I have troubled all the brothers. In this way, I will prepare a banknote of 10,000 taels later, which will be used as tea expenses for the brothers. Everyone
Don’t dislike it yet.”
When Li Guobang and others heard this, they were flattered and said: "Uncle, it's just a small effort, and it's not worth a big deal. If uncle says that, he's not looking down on our brothers."
Jia Yun waved his hands when he heard this and said: "Hey... brothers have been busy all day and have recovered countless properties for our government. What is the value of a little tea fee? Do you think you don't appreciate it?"
"This..." Li Guobang and others suddenly choked.
Jia Yun directly made the decision: "That's it, you are all Xiu Mu, but you have been taken advantage of by me. You should be rewarded. My uncle makes a distinction between public and private things, and you all know that."
Seeing what Jia Yun said, Li Guobang and others couldn't refuse, so they accepted it happily.
Speaking of sacrificing the time to rest and bathing, who doesn't complain in his heart? He just doesn't dare to say it out loud, but it is still a good thing to get tea money. Ten thousand taels, even if divided equally, he can get more than 20 taels.
Isn't this delicious?
Seeing that the matter was over, Li Guobang stood up again and said, "Uncle, if there are no other instructions, my subordinates will not disturb me."
"Well..." Jia Yun responded softly, and Li Guobang and others retreated.
After everyone had retreated, Jia Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief. The house was cleared and the noise was no longer so noisy.
Qingwen looked hesitant. After hesitating for a moment, she stepped forward and said, "Sir, do you really want to deal with the entire Lai family? Not all people in the Lai family are bad."
Jia Yun was not surprised when he heard this. After all, Qingwen was originally given to the Jia family by the Lai family, and they had an old relationship with the Lai family.
After groaning, Jia Yun said: "If it is good, can the Lai family enjoy the wealth of the house with peace of mind?"
Qingwen choked up when she heard this. After all, what Jia Yun said was right. She had already enjoyed the blessings. Now it was ridiculous to say she was innocent.
Jia Yun spoke again: "It's good that you, girl, can take care of your old master, but the Lai family's matter has been settled for a long time, and it's useless to intercede."
Qingwen nodded silently. She said this because she was thinking of the grace of the old lady Lai's life. As a maid, there was nothing she could do.
Jia Yun didn't think there was anything wrong with Qingwen's plea. How could Jia Yun dare to use it if he didn't even care about his old master's feelings?
Seeing that Qingwen was in a low mood, Jia Yun said in a gentle tone: "You don't have to think too much. I will not be biased against you because of this matter. I will serve you wholeheartedly from now on and I will not treat you badly in the future."
Hearing Jia Yun's comfort, Qingwen felt better, but when she heard Jia Yun say that she would serve her wholeheartedly from now on, Qingwen couldn't help but frowned and said softly: "How could I not serve you with my whole heart?"
Hearing this, Jia Yun raised the corners of his mouth slightly and cursed with a smile: "You little girl, you still dare to say that you will serve me with all your heart, but yesterday you refused to serve me with your mouth."
Qingwen's face suddenly turned red and she said angrily: "Is that what you want to do to serve me? That's how you treat someone else."
Not only Qingwen was embarrassed, but also Xiangling, who was quiet beside her, couldn't help but feel shy. After Jia Yun's "reminder", yesterday's embarrassing scene couldn't help but come to mind.
Jia Yun saw the shy looks of the two beautiful maids, each with his own style, and his mood became more and more cheerful. He reached out and waved towards Xiangling.
Xiang Ling stepped forward shyly. Jia Yun reached out and pinched Xiang Ling's chin and taught her in front of Qingwen: "Xiang Ling, you are still a little rusty. You need to practice more in the future. I will tell you the secret.
If you want to feel comfortable, you have to rely on your dexterous tongue..."
As he spoke, Jia Yun placed his index finger on Xiangling's lips and rubbed them back and forth. He even raised his eyebrows and looked at Qingwen beside him. The meaning was self-evident. Qingwen and Xiangling stamped their feet in annoyance.
Seeing this situation, Jia Yun couldn't help laughing proudly, this kind of life is comfortable...
"Hey...Brother Yun, what fun is this..."
Just when I was feeling proud, there was a burst of shouting from outside the hall, and the tone seemed to be slightly reproachful......
