Chapter 56: A loving mother and a filial son
The great drama came to an end, and the Ning and Rong mansions seemed to have returned to the past.
"Mother!"
After dinner, Jia Zhen walked with Shen Ning, "Brother Xi Fuzhu and I went to see our father today."
"Oh? Shen Ning said in a slightly raised tone, "How is your father?"
She heard Jia Zheng say it when they were watching the show.
It seemed as if the father and son were thinking about Jia Jing.
"Father is in good health." Jia Zhen hesitated, "But I feel that Zhuer came to seek advice from father for the prince's affairs in the capital."
Shen Ning : "..."
She stopped, "What do you call a feeling? Could it be that you left in the middle?"
"It's not my son who wants to leave."
Jia Zhen is also very depressed, "It's my father who saw that he wanted to talk to him alone, so he found an excuse and asked me to water the vegetable garden for him."
< br>“…”
What else are you talking about?
Jia Jing and Jia Zhu are both rare smart people in the Jia family.
They want to talk about something...
Shen Ning's eyes flashed, "How many loads of water did you carry?"
She was a little curious about what Jia Jing was doing every day. live.
"...five loads!"
Jia Zhen felt aggrieved.
If he didn't have some foundation, he wouldn't be able to do it.
That’s it, it’s not a choice.
The poles and buckets were too difficult to control. Most of the first two loads of water we carried were spilled before reaching the vegetable field.
In the end, he had no choice but to carry it with his hands.
“Are you tired?”
Shen Ning looked at the grown-up boy.
“Tired!”
In front of her mother, Jia Zhen did not hide it, “But my father may not be so tired usually.” He said: “He just wants me to be busy outside for a while. "
Hmph~
My father is not honest, so he doesn't have to carry it for him.
"Hmm~" Shen Ning was noncommittal, "Then when you go back, what do you think of their faces?"
"It looks... quite pleasant."
Jia Zhen hesitated and said : "At least it's peaceful on the surface."
"..."
Shen Ning nodded, "Your father's brain is quite powerful, and he can't suffer easily. His business Don't bother, we can just keep to ourselves."
Jia Zhen: "..."
I feel like my mother is calling him stupid.
But there is no evidence.
“Yeah~”
He responded dully.
"Go, go back and read one more page of Zizhi Tongjian."
Jia Zhen: "..."
It's true, his mother just thinks he is stupid.
"I also asked Qingzhu to read one more page."
That day I wrote a letter scolding Jia Jing for being blind, and within a few days Wang Ziteng was unlucky.
Shen Ning didn’t know how he operated.
Compared with him, she felt quite stupid.
"Then I'd better listen to the reading of Qingzhu with you!"
Jia Zhen, who was originally feeling cold and cool, felt very relieved when her mother said this, "By the way, you are here today. What play did you listen to? Why did Uncle Zheng feel so weird during dinner? "
"Well, the most exciting play today was 'Li Kui Negative'"
Shen Ning smiled, "I just ordered this play, and your Aunt Wang came to apologize to me."
Jia Zhen: "..."
As expected, his father and his mother Just a pair! He also laughed, "Is it just a thorn? That second aunt is so stingy that she didn't even give me anything to apologize for!"
"Don't tell me, she really gave it. "
Shen Ning smiled and said, "I'll ask Xing'er to help me pawn at the Xue family's pawn shop and bring back the money. "
She didn't dare to use the things Wang gave me.
Instead of worrying about it at home, it is better to send it outside and exchange it for money.
The mother and son were living happily here. In the Hall of Rongxi, Mrs. Wang had red eyes when facing Jia Zhu.
“...she just bullied me like that!”
Wang didn't know how she could hold on at that time, "No one said a word to me."
Watching her mother's tears falling drop by drop, Jia Zhu's heart was in panic.
But that person is the aunt.
My mother really shouldn't let Zhou Rui spread the news about her family like that.
"Mom, I gave a gift to Uncle Jing on behalf of my uncle today."
Jia Zhu couldn't say her mother's fault directly, so she could only say this, "Although Uncle Jing accepted it, But beyond what he said, he was also very dissatisfied with the news that he was stripped of his robe by his eldest uncle."
Wang: "..."
She even forgot to cry. .
"Uncle and auntie are both shameless people. Do you know how many people inside and outside the capital laughed at them because of this?"
Jia Zhu was helpless, "I saw a joke that day. , are all queuing up at the city gate. Do you think Uncle Jing and Brother Zhen will be happy if they know about it?”
Without the help of Uncle Jing and Brother Zhen in Jingying, the uncle didn't know how difficult it was.
"Mother, uncle, she is not unreasonable."
Jia Zhu was asked by Jia Jing today whether she was the son of the Wang family or the Jia family.
I was asked again how I feel after being so busy and exhausted these days at the Wang family.
Jia Zhu is so tired.
He checked the people around his aunts, and both aunts were very unhappy.
He checked the people around his second uncle and cousin Wang Ren. The second uncle was unconscious and unresponsive, but his cousin Wang Ren was also very unhappy.
Even my uncle... also distrusted him because of the death of the maid.
Lending his hand to give gifts to Uncle Jing was actually a kind of temptation.
He is doubting their Jia family.
Uncle Jing received the money, but Uncle Jing felt very unhappy about it.
Jia Zhu felt that she had been working extremely hard for several days, but she felt like a human being.
But he was unreasonable.
"Just remember what happened this time and don't make the same mistake in the future." Jia Zhu looked at her mother sincerely and had to emphasize the point of her words, "Otherwise, who among us can speak for you? ? The eldest uncle is really angry. You asked us brothers to kneel in the ancestral hall for you. Do we dare to disobey the order?"
Wang: "..."
She was simply stunned. .
Her eldest brother asked Pearl to give gifts?
Can Mr. Shen still...
"Mom, the family scandal must not be made public!"
Jia Zhu wanted to sigh when she saw her mother's pitiful appearance, "I respect you, uncle and On that day, the aunt was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer. You and grandma should not have interfered.”
Poor grandma also stepped in.
Fortunately, the old lady is old and does bad things with good intentions. Otherwise, with her usual temperament, she would have turned the table over with her on the spot.
The ridiculous thing is even more outrageous.
"You said that no one spoke for you, and you didn't even look at it. What are you doing?"
It's a pity for Zhou Rui and his wife.
But Jia Zhu also knows that even though they have made all kinds of mistakes as a couple, they are still her mother's right-hand men in the house. Because Uncle Jing is not here, I won’t give it to him.”
That’s not what he said. With his mother’s brains, even ten of them are no match for Uncle Jing.
"No one is a fool. You treated her like that. Think about it, if you were her, would you not be angry?"
Jia Zhu said sincerely, "Fortunately, I have apologized today. , even if this matter is over, don’t think about it anymore. With our brothers here and Cousin Feng as the housekeeper, no one will say anything."
At this point, he simply knelt down. , "If you still feel uncomfortable, just hit your son a few times. His skin is rough and his flesh is thick and cannot be beaten."
Jia Zhu grabbed her mother's hand and said, "My son will go back to the Imperial College tomorrow to study. Next year, he will be admitted to the Jinshi exam for you. No one will remember today. Even my mother-in-law will sincerely congratulate you when her son is admitted to the Jinshi exam. ”
