Chapter 1749 The Renzi scroll presents roses

There was a look of satisfaction on Jia's mother's face, and then she sighed softly: "I trust you, but I also know that sometimes even you can't be the master. This matter is no small matter, and it is also the autumn of the Jia family's life and death. I don't dare to expect anything else, I just hope that the daughters of the Jia family will not be humiliated. As for Baoyu, Huangeer and even Langeer, the old man sees it aside. If a man lives in the world, if he suffers some hardships, it may not be a bad thing..."

I have to say that Mother Jia still has a bit of wisdom and foresight to be able to hold the hall in Rongning Second Mansion. This knowledge alone can give a glimpse, but I don’t know why she fainted on Jia Baoyu, a stubborn rock. In the end, if Jia Baoyu had been able to improve his skills since he was a child, he wouldn't be where he is now.

   "The old lady is right." Feng Ziying replied respectfully.

"I'm afraid this Rongguo Mansion will be lost. I've thought about it too. Miss Lin is also a member of your Feng family. Didn't the Jia family borrow 200,000 taels of silver from the Lin family to repair the garden?" I have already handed out a paper with both hands, "This is the IOU that the old man asked Zheng'er to write. Although it was not handed over to Miss Lin, it has been kept in the old hand. Now it can be regarded as an explanation..."

  Feng Ziying glanced suspiciously, but did not make a sound.

"The final fate of this Rongguo Mansion is probably to be sold by the government, but this garden was built with money from the Lin family. It might be hard to say if it were someone else, but Miss Lin is going to marry you. Brother Keng, you can help Let Miss Lin recover the money from the sale proceeds,..."

When Jia Mu said this, Feng Ziying also understood, shook her head, and said with a wry smile: "Old Madam, I am afraid that this money is not easy to get back. The imperial court seized it and sold it, which means it needs money, and will not approve this kind of loan. Otherwise, it will be offset in this way, and the imperial court will not be able to raise funds through sales."

  Mother Jia sighed, "I've thought about this too, but now that's all I can do. Otherwise, the Rongguo Mansion will be confiscated, and Miss Lin's money will be wasted..."

"Old Madam, don't care too much about these things. Whether you bring the money with you or not, if you don't have this money, sister Lin has entered the Feng family. Can Ziying treat her badly?" Feng Ziying looked at it. Looking down at Daiyu who was wiping her tears, "Ziying will do everything in her power to help the other sisters, let's see how the imperial court characterizes them..."

Speaking of these people, Tanchun and Xichun are the daughters of Jia Zheng and Jia Jing, and Shi Xiangyun is Sun Shaozu's betrothed wife. I'm afraid it will be very difficult for them to escape. Father Li Shouzhong is now the right servant of the Ministry of Rites of the Puppet Dynasty, even if she is married, but this side is Jia Zheng's daughter-in-law, so there is no way to say it.

   What Feng Ziying said is just to ease everyone's hearts and express an attitude. We can only wait and see how it will be.

As for how to deal with the other big family members of the Rongguo Mansion except the masters, it is hard to say now, such as the slaves and servants bought in, there are more children born in the family, and those who are related to the five servants of the direct branch. The Jia family outside has too many uncertainties.

  Mother Jia took a deep breath, and suddenly said: "You all go out first, and then I will have a few words with Brother Keng."

  Everyone was surprised, but they all got up silently and backed out.

   Only Jiamu, Yuanyang, and Feng Ziying were left in the room.

"Ziying, tell me the truth, how will the imperial court deal with the Jia family?" Jia's mother went straight to the point, but her tone was exceptionally calm: "I am in my seventies, and time is running out, but the Jia family cannot be wiped out on my body." As for the matter of Jia Jing, I have nothing to say about it. It was their choice to be the head of the Ningguo Mansion, but Zheng'er knew it. Forced, I can't help myself, this old man still hopes that Brother Keng can help you, Uncle Zheng Shi, to distinguish,..."

Feng Ziying was about to explain, but Mother Jia waved her hand to stop her: "Didn't I tell you to go to the court to distinguish now, and the court won't listen to this now, whether it's the Rongguo Mansion's house raid or distribution, I'm afraid you can't hide, but What about the future? When the imperial court’s crusade against the south of the Yangtze River is over, they will be cleaned up one by one. If Zheng’er is really persecuted like this, then please ask Brother Keng to help Zheng’er be innocent.

Feng Ziying frowned, and pondered for a while before saying: "Ziying also thought that with Zheng Shishu as a person, she might not take the initiative to become the Guanglu Temple Minister of the puppet dynasty, but even if Zheng Shishu is innocent in the future, Jia As you said, Jia Jing, Wang Ziteng, Li Shouzhong, and the Niu family, and even the Shi family, are all indisputable, so..."

Mother Jia was saddened, and she also knew that even if Jia Zheng's matter could be clarified, Jia Jing was still a descendant of the Jia family and was still the eldest branch. That nephew, Shi Nai, even rebelled against the general, and Baoyu's wife is also the daughter of the Niu family, and her many relationships are inseparable from the important officials of the puppet dynasty. How can the Rongguo Mansion be exonerated?

  But Mother Jia knew that she must not give up in despair at this time, otherwise the entire Rongguo Mansion would really disappear, and she had to keep hope for the Jia family no matter what.

"Brother Keng, I know that what you said is indeed difficult to justify. I only hope that the court can clear the matter of Zheng'er, so as to leave hope for the Jia family..." Seeing that Feng Ziying didn't seem to understand, Jia The mother continued: "Zheng'er is old, of course I don't count on him, but what about Brother Huan and Brother Lan? Both of them are seeds of study. If Zheng'er's affairs cannot be cleared, even Huan Brother and Lang will be blocked from studying in the imperial examination, so how can the Jia family still have hope?"

   It turned out that this is the case, Feng Ziying has to admire Jia's mother's thoughtfulness and meticulous consideration. Although Jia's family involves a lot, for Jia Huan and Jia Lan, Jia's political affairs are the core.

  As long as Jia Zheng's affairs can be exonerated, then at least Jia Huan and Jia Lan can retain the opportunity to be born in the imperial examination.

   After all, the other people who commit crimes are not close relatives of Jia Huan and Jia Lan, so they will be implicated and affected, but they will not block the way out.

Slightly lowering her head, Feng Ziying finally nodded: "What the old matriarch said is true, but Ziying didn't take this into account. Brother Huan and Brother Lan are both my disciples, so naturally I won't sit idly by. Do my best to help them, even Baoyu, I will do my best..."

Mother Jia waved her hand solemnly: "Brother Keng, although I love Baoyu, this is not the time to think about Baoyu. If the Jia family wants to survive, it must fall on Brother Huan and Brother Lan." As long as the two of them can survive this catastrophe, Baoyu will naturally be able to shelter Yu Yin. During this period, Baoyu will suffer some hardships, and it will be worth it, so I ask Brother Keng to put his mind on Brother Huan and Brother Lan Of course, Brother Cong, if you have a chance, please help me."

I didn't mention Jia Cong before, which is enough to show how dissatisfied the old lady is with her eldest son, Jia She, and hates the family. Of course, this is also because Jia Huan and Jia Lan seem to study harder, but it is also the same as Jia's family. Pulse, I finally thought of it at this time.

   "The old lady is serious. Even if you don't mention these things, this is my duty." Feng Ziying nodded.

"As the saying goes, there is no thanks for a great kindness. The Jia family is now like this. I really can't thank you. I heard that Brother Keng thinks highly of mandarin ducks. She has been with me for so many years. When it comes to character and doing things, it's not my boasting, it's all about it." One by one, it turned out that the old man kept her, just to rest assured and let her guard the family's possessions for the old man, but it was meaningless now, so the old man wanted to give the mandarin duck to Brother Keng, nothing else Said, managing an inner house for Brother Keng is still competent,..."

Mother Jia's eyes fell on the mandarin duck who was already kneeling on the ground with tears streaming down her face, and she rubbed her hand on the mandarin duck's head, "There is always a banquet in the world, and I have delayed the mandarin duck for so many years. The other family has already sent off to get married or maybe the owner of the family has taken over the house, and today you can be with Brother Keng, which is also a comfort to the old man."

"No, old ancestor, the mandarin duck will not leave, even if you kill the mandarin duck, the servant will serve you for the rest of your life. If you want to drive the servant away now, it is better to let the servant die..." Yuanyang knelt in front of Jiamu and kowtowed repeatedly. The forehead was red and swollen, which made Feng Ziying feel distressed.

  Mother Jia was also in tears. She touched Yuanyang's head and shook her head again and again, "Mandarin duck..."

Feng Ziying knew that Jia's mother might indeed have good intentions, but this was by no means a good time. This would trap Yuanyang in injustice and ruin Yuanyang's reputation in Jia's family. In self-blame and guilt.

"Old Madam, Ziying really likes mandarin ducks and is willing to want mandarin ducks, but now it's not suitable, and mandarin ducks won't accept it." Feng Ziying smiled and said: "How about this, your thanks Ziying accepts, it is mandarin ducks. After the body contract is settled, it is considered mine, but I still let Yuanyang accompany the old lady until Yuanyang feels that her wish is fulfilled, then she will come to me, what do you think?"

Jia Mu's eyes lit up, and Feng Ziying also knew that the other party understood what she meant, but Yuanyang didn't seem to understand, "In the future, if there is something wrong with Rongguo Mansion, Yuanyang will be considered Feng's family, but he must repay his kindness and follow the old lady." You can help take care of it by your side, and you can also send a letter or something,..."

It was only at this time that Yuanyang realized that she was ashamed, happy and surprised. She raised her red and swollen eyes and looked at the two of them. Mother Jia finally nodded, but her eyes were full of satisfaction: "Brother Keng, you are thoughtful, Jia My family owes you too much, only Kan Yingchun and Daiyu come to repay you."
