Chapter 142(1/2)
Everyone in Lixiangyuan did not expect that in just half a month, Jiang Zixuan's family would fly five swallow kites. Reading at zero o'clock
At first, everyone thought that it would take at least three to five months to raise such a large amount of money, so they could study how to make Niu Jiyao die in a rhythm. As for the people who were guarding the Jiang family, they said it would be later.
It's okay to go over there. Only Yao'er is very cautious and urges people to go over earlier to keep watch. They are all busy, so they only invite two of the eight children every day to pretend to play on the street over there and take turns watching.
Unexpectedly, the kite took off after half a month.
It turned out that Jiang Zirong had some cash and sold some antique properties to collect 200,000 yuan. How could he spend the 300,000 yuan that the Niu family gave him? So it was very fast. That night he received a letter under the door.
He wrote a letter and said that he understood it and would wait for some time to make arrangements and collect the money after the work was completed. When the mother and son saw it, they felt as if they had received a magic talisman, and went to burn incense in front of Jiang Zilong's soul in tears.
An ordinary dude like Niu Jiyao can be easily killed with the power of this group of people because of his calculations but not his intentions. It is just a matter of whether or not to leave clues. There is a debate among the people. It is humane, since it is not just this time.
, it is necessary to leave a clue like Robin Hood for the public to see, so that it can be easily pointed out in the future. Some people said that it was originally a matter of offending a noble family, so the more secretive the better. The two sides argued for a long time, and Jia Cong finally
It was the final decision: "The methods are secretive and changeable, and there must be clues. Green Forest must also have a brand."
A few days later it will be Jia Meng's full moon. Jia She is now a rich man, he has no shortage of money for anything, and he is the first grandson to have a direct biological relationship. Therefore, it is extremely grand, and people from well-known families in the capital will come. The old man thought for a long time,
He discussed with Jia Si for a long time and asked Yao'er to help receive the guests together with Jia Lian. This boy had been quite eye-catching when he was in the Hanlin Academy, and now more and more people are staring at him, so he just recommended it to others to see. Jia Si
Cong Jiahuan was the two little followers, one followed Jia Lian and the other followed Yao'er. Jia She personally carried the eldest grandson out for everyone to praise. Naturally, they made a lot of good noises, and the old man's beard stood up in joy.
But at this moment, someone came back and said, "Prince Beijing is here."
Jia She was the one who should have gone out to greet him, but he couldn't bear to part with his grandson, so he turned to look at Jia Cong. Jia Cong curled his lips and said, "I'll go greet him..."
Jia She hurriedly said: "Yeah, that's fine. The prince likes you, so it's just right for you to go!"
Jia Cong rolled his eyes, stood up and went to the door of the house to welcome Shuirong in. He said some polite words to the people at the door. Once he was in a deserted place, he complained: "Why are you here again? I don't know how to avoid suspicion. Saint
One look, well, the Jia family just fell out with the Prince of Nan'an, and then they got involved with the Prince of Beijing."
Shui Rong smiled and said: "You are so guilty. Because you helped Huo Sheng, the court might care a little bit. Our two houses have good friendship." He took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and said, "No, it's an antique from the Tang Dynasty.
.”
Jia Cong hurriedly took it and saw that the jade pendant was carved from the finest Hetian jade, Crane Ganoderma lucidum, with excellent carving work. His eyes lit up: "For me?"
"Huo Sheng gave it to your nephew."
"oh……"
"When will the business start?"
"I'm waiting for a piece of news, and I'll do it when it comes. Why are you in a hurry for money? We also have many antique shops in our house, and there are also some in other places."
"I'm not in a hurry for money. I have a few things I want to sell quickly."
Shui Rong no longer regarded Jia Cong as a child, and spoke to him in an old Jianghu manner. The two of them were discussing how to sell the stolen goods along the way, so they walked very slowly. They stopped talking when they saw Rongxi Hall ahead. When they got inside, Jia Cong
He handed over the water solution to his father and stopped taking care of it.
Later, he found an opportunity to quietly give the jade pendant to Wang Xifeng, saying that it was given to Meng'er by a friend. Wang Xifeng saw that the jade pendant was not an ordinary thing, so he quickly put it in his sleeve and asked who the friend was. Jia Cong smiled and said:
"Let's not talk about it for the moment. After all, status is valuable." Wang Xifeng immediately imagined that he was a noble person from Tianhuang, and was secretly happy in his heart.
Jia Cong said again: "Second sister-in-law, you are tired today. You will be sick when you go back."
Wang Xifeng glanced at him.
"I have received reliable information. Uncle Jing in Dongfu is dying and will not survive this month. Meng'er can't leave his mother at the moment, so don't join in the fun before the funeral."
Wang Xifeng was shocked: "Is this serious?"
Jia Cong nodded.
Wang Xifeng suddenly felt a little dizzy and called Ping'er: "Where are you wandering around again? Come help me!"
Ping'er hurriedly came over to help her, and the master and servant went to perform the opera. Jia Cong sneaked to the back, took a look at the excitement and prepared to sneak away for a while. Because he looked back and saw
Lin Daiyu looked at him with a half-smile but made a face.
Sister Feng fell ill when she returned home. She even called a doctor under false pretenses, saying that she was weak and tired after giving birth and had to rest for two or three months.
Sure enough, Jia Jing left within a few days. Because Jia Rong's injury had not healed yet, Jia Zhen was the only one busy working inside and outside the Ningguo Mansion. All the dignitaries in the capital came to express their condolences, and it was extremely lively.
Originally, everyone in Lixiangyuan designed a quite complete plan to lure Niu Jiyao to an inaccessible place and then attack him, but by chance, it was him who came to the Duke's Mansion today! Jia Cong was in a good mood at that time.
Hiding behind the crowd, he dozed off. Hearing the outsider's name, the little boy suddenly became energetic. He thought, it would be better to hit the sun. Since we met, let's do it today. So he quietly sneaked out to check the direction, and finally arrived at Huifang
The garden found a big tree next to Ningrong Street, and climbed up while no one was around and waited quietly. There was nothing going on on the tree, and the word "Fu Lian" was engraved on the arrow of Bei Xiujian.
After waiting for a long time, Niu Jiyao finally rode his horse slowly across the street not far away. Jia Cong calmly aimed his sleeve arrow at him, raised his hand and shot it out. Without waiting for any noise outside, he immediately slipped down the tree and pretended to go up.
When he came out of the thatched room, he saw a huge chaos in Ningguo Mansion. It was said that Niu Siye, the fourth master of Zhenguo Mansion, was riding on his horse and had people shoot him with hidden arrows.
Not long after, people from the Military and Horse Department of the Five Cities came and checked for half a day. Since it was a funeral in Ningguo Mansion today, all the people who came were well-known people, and no one had any grudges against Zhenguo Mansion. There was really no way to investigate, so I had to be suspicious.
Passers-by and servants of Ningguo Mansion. Children like Jia Cong had already taken advantage of the chaos and ran back to the mansion. They even pretended to tell Jia Mu, "A guest in the East Mansion suddenly died. I was so scared that I ran back quickly!"
Jia Mu was very glad that Baoyu didn't go today.
When the Jiang family got the news that their enemy was dead, the mother and son burst into tears, and according to the letter they received that night, they put the five hundred thousand silver note in a tea cup and placed it on the stone table in the garden. They went to see it the next morning.
, Sure enough, it was gone. Although he paid two hundred thousand dollars and put down a big thing on his mind, Jiang Zirong suddenly became enlightened. He took his mother's hand and said: "Now that I have lost such a huge amount of money, I am actually
I can no longer waste the family carelessly. Although I am not as ambitious as my brother, I can't leave my mother with nothing to rely on." So he stopped going out to live and drink, and settled down to take care of the property. Later, I heard someone say that the government was looking around for a man named "
People who are "reunion" can't help but smile secretly.
In the blink of an eye, it had been two months since Yuanchun became a monk. Shuiyue An gradually returned to normal, with all kinds of bad guys coming back. Lu Qi had already figured out everything and came back to Yuanchun every day.
On this day Yuanchun was playing the piano in the courtyard, and there happened to be a dandy who was having an affair with his sister-in-law. He was very envious when he heard about it, so he asked who was in the courtyard. The sister-in-law waved her hands repeatedly: "You must give up on that! The Rongguo Mansion lives there.
How can I look down on you, young lady!" The dandy Deng Xiaoxian agreed with his mouth, but couldn't help but make up his mind. He pretended to go out for a walk, and walked around Yuanchun's yard several times, and finally couldn't bear it any more.
Climb over the wall at the back.
Yuanchun's yard was very small, and there were many people there, so the yard was usually full of people. The man climbed up to the wall and poked his head out. He saw several big, round women staring at him, and he was so frightened that he said "Ouch!"
Go down.
This time it was amazing. Yuanchun gave the order: "Take it!" A group of women rushed out. The dude wanted to escape, but sprained his foot and couldn't run. The women held him down firmly.
Qisui led the people majestically and suppressed the dandy to see Jingxu, and then sent people to Rongguo Mansion to report the news.
After hearing the news, Jia Cong and others thought that the eldest sister needed military support, so they immediately shouted, gathered a large group of people and drove to Shuiyue Temple. When they got there and took a look, they saw three or four men tied up outside and staggering around, and there were three inside
Four sisters-in-law were crying, and there were more than a dozen sisters-in-law standing beside them with their hands down. Jingxu had already been tied to the side and kneeling. Yuanchun led a group of maids and women behind him to sit calmly on the chairs, she was like a queen! She couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
: "Sister! Why did you call us after you've finished cleaning up?"
Yuanchun looked up at him and said, "Huan'er and Cong'er, you guys came just in time." He pointed at Jingxu and said, "This old lady connives at men to desecrate the pure land of Buddhism. I have captured it. You can send it to the government." He pointed again.
Looking at the crying sisters, he asked the sisters-in-law below, "I can't keep these ones. Is there anyone who wants to return to secular life?"
Most of the sisters-in-law in Shuiyue Temple are involved with dandies. How can there be any who have the heart of Buddha? One sister-in-law stood up first, and several more came forward one after another. In the end, only one who was over forty years old remained.
sister-in-law and a ten-year-old sister-in-law.
Yuanchun looked at her two brothers again: "These sisters-in-law have also returned to the secular world." Then he said to the sister-in-law, "Zhiqing, you also have a few good friends, do you really want to not return to the secular world?"
The one named Zhiqing hurriedly knelt down and cried: "Young lady is aware of everything, but I know that they just come to our nunnery to have fun. My parents sent me to the nunnery because they couldn't afford to support me. We are willing to follow them wherever they go.
They...? Because... I can do less work. If I return to secular life, my family still can't support me, and I'm afraid I won't be able to marry into a good family, but how can I live?"
Yuanchun shook his head and said: "If you don't have the heart to worship Buddha, why do you need to wear this uniform? You can just go find a job."
Jia Cong interjected: "Since working here is also working, and working outside is also working, isn't it the same when working outside?" He endured it, but still couldn't hold it back, and said, "Actually, you have nothing to do with the many women you have affairs with.
Respectively. If you want to sell, it’s better to go there and sell it, and you can still make money..."
Before he could finish his words, Yuan Chun shouted: "How presumptuous!"
Jia Cong made a face.
Yuanchun asked again: "From now on, Shuiyue Nunnery will only keep the sister-in-law who eats fasting and chants Buddha's name. The poverty is very tight and she has to do a lot of work. Have you thought about it?"
Zhiqing thought for a long time and finally stepped forward.
Yuanchun nodded and said: "That's it. Master Zhici, you can be the host of Shuiyue Temple for the time being."
The middle-aged lady came up, folded her hands and recited the Buddha's name, and then retreated safely.
Seeing that Yuanchun had dealt with everything that needed to be dealt with, Jia Cong and Jia Huan could only mutter a few times, "We are here to clean up the mess." They dejectedly escorted Jingxu and left with the three dudes outside. The group thought it was
They came to fight, but they didn't even watch the excitement, and they were a little frustrated.
They didn't bother about it anymore. They heard that Yuanchun went to a nearby nunnery to invite two Taoist nuns, and also invited several sisters-in-law from the nearby nunnery with "food and new clothes" and other things.
Many good things about the older girl came out. After sorting out the matter, everyone couldn't help but sigh: "The last time I said that she was willing to carry Brother Baoyu out, I actually underestimated her. She was even willing to throw herself out as bait." Therefore, I waited patiently.
Watching how she adapts to homeschooling, it seems like the drama is waiting for her.
A few days later, Jia Cong and Jia Huan came back from Su's house. He came up and said with a smile: "My master, I usually talk about what the family learned, but there has been news in the family today." He was busy with two things.
Asked what happened, he said, "Uncle Xiaolan came back and told Grandma Zhu that he would never go to school again. Grandma Zhu forced him to ask why, but he refused to tell. But he really didn't go to home to study in the past two days. This
The second master somehow found out about the matter and called him to scold him. Uncle Xiaolan cried and said that he caught someone doing dirty things in the home school. The second master was furious and led people to the home school.
I went, and I don’t know what’s going on now.”
The two of them couldn't help but complain: "I almost forgot about Lan'er!"
To be continued...
