Chapter 138 Think for yourself
Dreaming back at midnight, can you sleep?
Wang looked at her sister-in-law with a cold face, her heart pounding, "What sister-in-law wants to say, let's just say it bluntly, why bother carrying a gun and a stick?"
She did something, but she also confessed it in front of the Bodhisattva. The Bodhisattva didn't do anything to her. Why did Mr. Shen say that to her?
"I carry a gun and a stick?"
Shen Ning laughed angrily at her, "Jia Zheng, do you still remember how your sister Jia Lan died?"
Jia Zheng: "..."
When his sister-in-law called his name, his legs trembled.
Before, the second uncle kowtowed to each of them to apologize. He didn't know what to do, but now he was talking about Jia Lan, who had passed away long ago.
Hiss~
"She... didn't she die of illness?"
Not long after his father died, she died of illness!
"Hoo~"
Shen Ning resisted the urge to smash the cup on his face, "Then do you still remember the letter you gave her?"
letter?
Jia Zheng was a little confused. He didn't have much interaction with the sister, but...
He couldn't help but glance at Wang, "Remember something."
Could it be that the letter was wrong?
Jia Zheng tried to recall, "When my father passed away, it was a difficult time for the family. She wrote back and asked us to take care of several nephews and nieces. I thought that they happened to be on the border and it was time to go to the battlefield to fight for the family. Also give themselves a try..."
At this point, he couldn't go on, because the way his mother looked at him changed.
Jia Zheng panicked, "Mother, did my son do something wrong?"
Jia Mu: "..."
What did she give birth to?
The Duke of Guo and his eldest uncle passed away, and Jing'er looked like that. It was at a time when all parties were competing for everything the Jia family had in the military. Her son wanted his sister's family to go to the battlefield?
The old lady is a mature woman. She looks at her son, then her daughter-in-law, and Wang Ziteng, whose expression changes slightly. What else does she not know?
She trembled her lips and looked at Shen Ning, "What else has this evil done?"
"... Then we have to ask my uncle and my second younger brother and sister."
Shen Ning looked at Wang Ziteng and Wang, "You two have done a lot of favors to my Jia family's son-in-law and grandson, right?"
If someone goes up, someone must come down.
Here are the three father and son of the Lan family.
Even if the war is tight, one person should be left behind, but what will be the result?
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"
Wang Ziteng glanced at Jia Zhen and Jia Lian who came in, knowing the consequences of admitting.
But he thought about the situation of the Lan family. The father and son were dead, and the daughter was burned to death in a fire. Even if outsiders had any guesses, they could only be guesses without any evidence.
"Did someone in Ningxia infest my brother-in-law with maggots in front of my sister-in-law?"
Wang Ziteng seemed to hate the fact that iron cannot become steel. "My brother-in-law has such a temper...," he sighed, "He has never been in contact with the military, and those Qiu Ba may not listen to him."
At the beginning, he really wanted to use Jia Zheng to recruit more people, but this brother-in-law was not Jia She, let alone Jia Jing, and he couldn't make it too obvious. So far, the ones he has recruited are only those who like speculation, and there are not many in fact. A capable person.
But in a place like the border, you often have to rely on your true ability to speak, so it’s as if those people are there or not, not much different.
I just regret that I was young and didn't understand this, so I wasted a lot of money and energy in vain.
"On the contrary, in front of my sister-in-law, I blamed my brother-in-law for all the deaths of the Lan family..."
Wang Ziteng said with some meaning: "Sister-in-law, you should think about why that person didn't file a complaint earlier or later, and why he wants to file a complaint now."
Speaking of this, he also glanced at Jia Lian, "Lian'er entered the Arsenal Department, but there are many people who want to find a way to get to know him. What happened back then... Although it has been a long time, the two members of the Lan family After all, this child is the grandson of the Jia family, so they always have to shirk responsibility
My sister-in-law doesn't know that officialdom is dangerous, so just listen to some things and don't take them seriously. ”
this?
Mother Jia subconsciously tried to find some excuse for her son, and couldn't help but look at Shen Ning again.
"Both nephews... are both dead?"
Only Jia Zheng realized it later and said in disbelief: "There are no rules in the army. You have to stay..."
Bang~
Banglang~~~~
Shen Ning couldn't bear it anymore.
She grabbed the tea that the maid had just served and threw it on Jia Zheng.
Jia Zheng was so frightened that he didn't care about the pain or the broken porcelain pieces on the ground. His legs went weak and he knelt down on the spot, crying: "Sister-in-law~~~"
"Stay? Why stay? Didn't you write a letter to the guards of the second guard?"
Shen Ning sneered, "How awesome are you, Jia Zheng? You were selfless, sacrificing yourself for others. Your sister died, so you asked your brother-in-law and two nephews to take turns in the forward team. After your brother-in-law killed three Tatars that day, he lost his strength and was chopped down. You two nephews were very lucky and survived for three years.”
At this point, she grabbed Jia Mu and drank half a cup of tea, and then threw it hard at Jia Zheng, "Do you want to find out what the relationship between the second guard's defense and the Wang family is? Where's your brain? You're all pretending to be shit. ”
"Slowly, what does this have to do with my Wang family?"
How could Wang Ziteng recognize it? How dare he recognize it?
"Sister-in-law, you must have evidence when you speak."
The letter was long ago destroyed.
All the people involved back then are gone too.
Not long after a fire broke out in the Lan family, Hu Shoubei, the second guard of Ningxia, got wind of the horse and died on his concubine's belly.
Hu Shoubei's wife, Mrs. Xue, sold all her concubines and returned to her hometown in Nanyang with her children.
Wang Ziteng was not afraid of checking, "Yes, I know Hu Shoubei, and even his wife Xue is from my second sister's mother-in-law's family. However, this twisted marriage relationship is the norm in official circles. I am in the army, and he He was also in the army. When he was alive, there were several letters between our two families. Isn’t it normal? ”
"Have I spoken to Mr. Wang?"
"But my sister-in-law mentioned the Wang family, so I have to explain."
"Oh? You mean this matter has nothing to do with your Wang family?"
"No!"
Wang Ziteng shook his head without hesitation.
"Okay, okay!"
Shen Ning nodded, "Jia Zhen, Jia Zhu, Jia Lian, did you three hear it?"
Jia Zhen: "..."
Jia Zhu: "..."
Jia Lian: "..."
The three brothers looked at each other and bowed together, "I heard it."
Jia Zhu vaguely knew why the aunt was so angry.
His father is confused, and his mother... intentionally or unintentionally, pulls his father to steal the Jia family's military connections,
My eldest uncle will definitely not be able to win over me, so...
Jia Zhu couldn't help but look at her grandmother. Sure enough, his grandmother's hands on the table were shaking.
He...
Jia Zhu stood there and couldn't help but close her eyes.
Only Jia Lian was the most confused at the scene.
He went home happily.
Before he entered the hospital, Feng'er told him to leave quickly.
He was still confused, but someone came from Dongfu.
As a result, before he asked Feng'er what was going on, she asked him to come here honestly and listen to his aunt.
He must listen to what the aunt said, but...
Jia Lian's eyes glanced at the Wang brothers and his second uncle and second aunt, and his heart sank.
"It's good to hear it."
Shen Ning looked at Jia Zheng who was kneeling on the ground, "Jia Zheng, let me ask you, have you written any letters to the various armies over the years? Who have you installed?"
Jia Zheng: "..."
He didn't know what to say, because he had actually done it.
His elder brother-in-law was in the army, and he wrote letters of recommendation to some people he liked but could not be placed in the Beijing camp, as well as colleagues who had failed in their careers.
But when the Jia family leaves the army, those relationships will expire if they are not used!
This was what he thought in his heart, but Jia Zheng didn't dare to say it.
He was afraid that if he said it, his sister-in-law would go crazy and hit him with a chair.
Jia Zheng couldn't help but look at his mother as if asking for help, wanting her to help him speak.
But Mother Jia simply couldn't look at him. When she looked at him, her vision turned dark and her chest felt tight. "Ms. Wang, you..." She wanted to kill her, but she could just give up if she couldn't kill her. But her eldest granddaughter Yuan Chun was about to get married, and her eldest daughter Yuan Chun was about to get married. My grandson will take the exam next year.
"You, you..." the old lady shook her hands, "Get out of the ancestral hall, get out now!"
"Mother~~~"
Jia Zheng cried, his mother looked bad, "Don't scare your son, you..."
"Get out of here too!"
The old lady gritted her teeth and said, "Get out of here too~~"
At this moment, she just hated that she was in such good health that she couldn't faint, "Nephew, there's no need to ask, she must have done this evil thing. Zhen'er, you are the patriarch. From now on, he is not your uncle; he is, he is ...The unworthy son of the Jia family.”
Damn it, she is still a mother.
It's a shame that there are so many people here, she still wants to save this evil man's life and save some face.
Mother Jia burst into tears suddenly, "How can you be worthy of your father? How can you be worthy of your sister? How can you make me, an old woman, have no face to see them even if she dies?"
"Mother~, mother~~~"
Jia Zheng cried loudly, but still wanted to come over and caress her chest.
Unexpectedly, Jia Mu kicked him away when he came over and said, "Get out of here, get back into the ancestral hall, and tell your father that you forced his son-in-law to death and his two grandsons to death."
The old lady didn't quite remember her son-in-law's appearance, and she had never met her two grandsons, but that didn't stop her from feeling heartbroken at this time.
When she was young, she was most afraid of the Duke going out to fight.
People will really die, many, many people will die.
So, when he went out to fight, she doted on the children even more. Who would have expected...
"Come, let's see you off!"
At this moment, Jia's mother really hated the Wang family, "I am responsible for the internal affairs of the Jia family, so I won't bother my two uncles to watch the jokes."
The Wang family is hateful, but who can let her own son fail?
"What? What the old lady said doesn't work?"
The old lady's eyes widened, and Jia Zhen, Jia Zhu, and Jia Lian hurriedly made a gesture of invitation to Brother Wang Ziteng at the same time.
"Master Wang, Master Wang, please!"
As Jia Zhen spoke, she had already glanced at the guard at the door. Seeing that he was about to force her, the prince hurriedly held up his hands and said, "I'm sorry, there are some things I can explain." But even his own nephew He looked like he was about to leave, and he could only say: "That's all, the old lady and sister-in-law are angry today, I'll come back another day!"
He waved his hand, and Wang Jin and Wang Zisheng hurriedly stepped forward and pushed his wheelchair away.
When they arrived at the entrance of the flower hall, the guards of the Wang family who had just been watched quickly stepped out of the queue of four people when the guards of the Jia family got out of the way, and carried him away.
In the flower hall, the old lady was paralyzed, tears streaming down her face, "Niece-in-law, you can punish this evildoer how you want!"
If you don't care about living, what will happen in the future?
"And the Wang family..."
Why not die?
The old lady looked at her daughter-in-law, who had lowered her eyebrows and was kneeling on the ground at some point, "You don't like our Jia family so much? You want to get everything from your Wang family? Are you worthy of Zhu'er? Are you worthy of Baoyu?
Laner also calls you sister-in-law, why are you so cruel? If you kill her child, aren't you afraid... aren't you afraid that she will come to find you? ”
She almost said, "Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
But thinking about the Wang family's children, they are all her grandsons, the words of retribution are firmly pressed on her mind.
"..."
Mrs. Wang knelt there, her head lowered, her face pale, and she said nothing.
She actually didn't expect that things would be so serious.
Just a few letters.
My brother and Jia Zheng talked about everything, while she played the drums next to him.
The only one whose name was written was the letter to Jia Lan.
The Wang family believed that it was a virtue for a woman not to have any talent. She knew how to read, but she really didn't know how to write. She only had her own name, which she could write most beautifully.
But even if she thinks she is the best, she is still ugly in the eyes of her husband Jia Zheng.
So later, she didn't even have the chance to write her name.
Now my mother-in-law wants to blame her for everything...
Wang could not refute.
The one who instigated was her brother, and the one who was instigated was her husband. She just felt that they were having a good conversation and there was no loss to their family...
The Jia family can give Fu Wei a background, so why can't he help someone her brother knows?
Isn't it such an important position?
Jia Lan......
Wang's chest also felt very tight, her vision gradually turned black, and she suddenly fell to the ground.
"Mother~"
Before she fell completely into darkness, she heard her son's cry.
"Please shopkeeper Chen~"
Jia Zhen hurriedly told Xing'er, "I'm probably suffering from heatstroke. Zhu'er, give me some saliva."
At this moment, he didn't want to care about his mother, because her mother's expression was also very bad, "Mother, please sit down and have a rest. Next, my son will come."
"..."
Shen Ning glanced at him and ignored him, "Jia Lian, what do you think about today's matter?"
Jia Lian: "..."
He was trying to persuade the old lady in a low voice and wiped her tears. He paused and said hurriedly: "I will personally investigate the eldest aunt's matter. There should be a cousin in the Lan family. I will find someone to take her to Beijing. ”
"Yes, yes."
Jia's mother said repeatedly: "If you get married, you will take her family to Beijing to take care of her. If you are not married, you will find a family for her from Beijing. I will pay the dowry for the old woman."
"Woooo~" Jia Zheng cried, "My son is born."
"The Lan family... was burned down by a fire."
What?
Jia Mu and Jia Zheng were both stunned.
"It was Lanzhi who set the fire himself when he was escaping from the Ningxia Erwei."
Shen Ning said: "Aunt, the reason why I went out was to see Lan Zhi. She is now at General Xia's place and is the deputy lieutenant in charge of the women's army there."
"..."
"..."
Jia Mu and Jia Zheng were all shocked.
"I persuaded her to come back, but she didn't agree and wanted to fight the Tatars desperately."
Shen Ning sighed, "Lian'er, our family... owes her."
"My nephew knows that he will do his best to help Ningxia."
Jia Lian nodded solemnly and said: "Especially the women's army."
Ningxia's women's army has always been famous in Dazhao.
It was built by the founding princess. When he got to know Ningxia Wei, he knew about it, "I will ask General Xia to take care of it."
As a doctor in the Arsenal Department, he can seek some benefits for his relatives.
"One more question," Shen Ning looked at him, "Are you willing to hand over all the Rongguo Mansion's military connections to the Yue family?"
Jia Lian: "..."
He shook his head gently, "What's in our family belongs to our family."
"What if Feng'er begs you?"
"She won't!"
Seeing the old lady looking over with lightning eyes, Jia Lian hurriedly said: "Her parents have passed away a long time ago. She spent more time at our house when she was a child." The second aunt has always been interested in bringing them together, "For today's matter, she should I heard that as soon as I got home, the maid called me over before I even said a word. At that time, Feng'er told me, 'I will listen to my eldest uncle in everything.'"
The look on Jia Mu's face softened slightly.
Finally, this granddaughter-in-law is not crooked yet.
Otherwise...
She can't divorce her daughter-in-law casually. This granddaughter-in-law who hasn't given birth to a son and a half should just go back to the Wang family!
"When I came back from Jiangnan, Feng'er told me that she was responsible for my uncle's horse scare case."
Jia Lian did not dare to relax because his aunt was still staring at him with lightning eyes.
This one is not good, he and Feng'er may never see each other again.
Jia Lian felt this keenly from the attitude of her grandmother and aunt towards the Wang family, "She said, fortunately I was not at home, Brother Zhu was busy and exhausted. As a result, her uncle and aunts were not satisfied. .
Also said..."
He glanced at the old lady.
Jia Mu didn't have much patience now and asked directly, "What else can you say?"
"Feng'er also said," Jia Lian tweaked, "the uncles are close, but no matter how close they are, they can't kiss me."
Jia Mu: "..."
Shen Ning: "..."
Although they were relieved to face Wang Xifeng, this child made them itchy.
Jia Lian continued: "She is reluctant to bear my hard work, so how can she join forces with outsiders to trick me?"
Snap~
Jia Zhen couldn't stand listening anymore and came over to give him a pause, "Look at how beautiful you are. It's as if Zhu'er and I don't have a wife."
Their wives are also very nice.
It's that Uncle Zheng's wife is in a bad marriage.
"You can see what's going on with the Wang family." Jia Zhen said bluntly, "I just ask you, do you want to help Mr. Wang return to the capital?"
"..."
Jia Lian knew he couldn't escape this problem. "The situation in Beijing is complicated. I don't know how many pairs of eyes are watching. I just joined the Arsenal Department. I would be crazy to get involved."
"..."
Shen Ning was not satisfied with this answer, "You are in the Arsenal Department and are his niece-in-law. Most of the time, you don't need to say anything. As long as this relationship exists, in the eyes of many people, you naturally have to stand beside him. There.
How are you prepared to respond if this happens? ”
How to deal with it?
Jia Lian's brows furrowed.
This is indeed a problem.
But he is not easy to solve.
He can't go around telling people that he doesn't like the Wang family, right?
That would also hurt Feng'er's heart.
"Please ask the old lady and aunt to teach me."
Jia Lian bowed deeply and said, "Please teach me, big brother."
Jia Zhen didn't have the ability to teach him, so she immediately looked at his mother.
Even Jia Mu is the same.
"...Think for yourself!"
Shen Ning was not used to it and looked serious, "What is the purpose of having a head? If you don't know clearly, go to the ancestral hall and think about your ancestors. After you think about it, come back to me and answer. If you can't answer the answer, just go on. Think.”
At this point, she paused and said, "Lian'er, you have stepped into the court, and you have to make your own decisions about many things right then and there. Therefore, you must first think clearly about where you stand."
If you are just a wallflower, you won’t be happy with the emperor, so you’d better come back!
