Chapter 843 Mr. Jizijuan Tongzhi (Third update, please vote for me!)

The master and the servant fought for a while, eating meat and vegetables, and then slowly settled down.

"What did the two gentlemen and the ancestors mean by the restoration of Brother Keng's family?" Wang Xifeng calmed down and slowly thought about it, "Even if they wanted to congratulate Brother Keng, they wouldn't specifically report it to the ancestors. "

“My ancestors are very concerned about it. Well, does grandma think it has something to do with Miss Yun?” Ping'er thought for a while before saying.

"Girl Yun?" Wang Xifeng frowned, "Didn't it mean that Girl Yun's family has been making peace with the Zhen family? But there has been no news for so long, and Zhen Baoyu has not heard of another engagement. Who made the fight? What’s the idea?”

"Yes, this slave also feels strange. In the middle of last year, we talked about Miss Yun and the Zhen family. They all said that Zhen Baoyu was as handsome as Mr. Bao, but he seemed to be unable to study. But the Zhen family's room was just like this. My legitimate son, Miss Yun will not be wronged after marrying her, or is it because the Zhen family dislikes Miss Yun’s parents because they are gone?”

"Impossible. If they dislike it, the historians will not talk about it, and it is even less likely that this news will come out." Wang Xifeng categorically denied, "I am afraid that the Zhen family is also uneasy, and they have to look at Shu, eat in their mouths, and see Looking into the bowl, looking into the pot."

This is not easy to say. The relationship between the Zhen family and the Jia family is unusual. Moreover, they are still the first of the four new families in Jinling. The second master of the Zhen family is the minister of the Ministry of Rites in Nanjing, a real second-rank official. The third master is a colleague of the Hangzhou Prefecture. Zhi, who also holds great power, is much more prosperous than the Jia family.

“Grandma means that our ancestors want to use this method to force the Zhen family, or are our ancestors really interested in letting Miss Yun marry into the Feng family?” Ping’er couldn’t help but ask in the end.

"It's hard to say. Who can guess the thoughts of our ancestors? She has eaten more salt than we eat rice. We must think clearly about such things. However, it is not easy for our ancestors from the Shi family to do anything for them, so I I think it's probably better to show it to the Zhen family..." Wang Xifeng guessed.

“Grandma means that our ancestors don’t want Miss Yun to marry Brother Keng. I saw that Miss Yun and Brother Keng are very close, so I thought…” Ping’er said doubtfully.

"Close? Being close can determine the life events of two people? This is two families, not a matter of two people." Wang Xifeng said coldly: "Not to mention whether the Shi family agrees or not, the Feng family may not be willing. Yun The girl's parents are both dead. This alone can make many people retreat. The Shi family is no better than before. Yun Yatou's two uncles and aunts are worried. Brother Keng is so in demand now. The prince of Beijing County and Dongping County The king is plotting against him, and he is about to become Tang Monk. What advantage does the Shi family have?..."

Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng suddenly remembered something, "Ping'er, do you think Bao Yatou is suitable to marry into the Feng family?"

"I'm afraid, the situation at Miss Bao's side is not as good as Miss Yun's. After all, Miss Yun is also a double noble, and the Xue family is now as good as Huang Shang." Ping'er said hesitantly.

“Forget it, don’t think about it anymore, it has nothing to do with us anyway, but you said that the two masters and the ancestors talked about the debt for garden repairs. What did the ancestors say?”

Wang Xifeng is more concerned about this matter, which is directly related to whether she can gain a firm foothold in Jia's family in the future, especially after she and Jia Lian reconciled. Without this support, whether she can be the same as before, in her heart Really hopeless.

"The ancestors were also very angry. They said that they owed so much money and the cost of repairing the garden was far beyond what they originally thought. I originally thought it could be done with 400,000 taels of silver, but now it's not even 450,000 taels, and I still owe the outsiders so much. There is a lot of money in the company, and all the money in the company is empty. They live by moving money around to pay off debts. It is time to do a good investigation to see where the money is spent."

Ping'er's answer cheered up Wang Xifeng, "Did the ancestor really say that? Did the ancestor say it on his own initiative, or did the two masters lead the ancestor to say it?"

"The two masters must have led the conversation. The ancestor asked Yuanyang a few more questions. Yuanyang also said that it was too wasteful, and the servants in the mansion also reported it. Later, the ancestor said that it was time to investigate, not just the garden. , including things in the original mansion,..."

Wang Xifeng nodded silently, and Yuanyang also helped. She was probably touched by what he told her about the current situation in the house. It is not a big deal to keep mortgaging the ancestors' property. Sooner or later, the secret will be exposed.

"There has been a reaction in the house, and the reaction is not small. Now everyone has a unified opinion. This is a good thing." Wang Xifeng's cheek showed a cold look, "It's time to shake it off. Look at the house. How many blood-sucking bedbugs are there?…"

“Grandma, Jia Rui must have approached several people in the mansion, but they didn’t agree at first. Later, Jia Rui must have approached Wu Xingdeng and Lin Zhixiao,...” Ping’er said in a low voice.

Wang Xifeng nodded slightly.

This is also expected. Since someone has taken the lead in launching this "rebellion" movement, smart people can see that there is a background behind it. Otherwise, who would dare to touch the famous person in front of our ancestors?

Since you want to seize the position and resources left by the Lai family, you naturally have to do your best, otherwise you will not have a share in the rewards for your merits in the future.

Lin Zhixiao and Wu Xingdeng should be close to Lai Da's position, and once Lai Da falls, Lai Sheng cannot escape from Ning Guo Mansion, so as long as this position is moved, everyone will naturally turn around.

Although the Lai family is overbearing, the impression among the servants below is not good. To be precise, he has become a bit out of touch with the masses. It all relies on the power of his ancestors. Without the support of his ancestors, he would have been unable to do it long ago. Went down.

Times have changed now. Wu Xingdeng and Lin Zhixiao have much stronger influence and affinity with the servants below. With them coming forward, it is not a problem to find a few servants who dare to come forward to testify.

"Well, until now, Lin Zhixiao and Wu Xingdeng have not dared to take any action, so they will not want to sit in a big position in the future. Jia She must have said hello to them."

Wang Xifeng dared to call Jia She directly when she only had Ping'er. This shows her hatred for Jia She.

"Grandma, when will...?" Ping'er asked subconsciously.

She was still a little nervous. Lai Da had been the general manager of the Jia family for many years and had accumulated a lot of prestige. This move would probably turn the world upside down. From the bottom of her heart, Ping'er felt that without the support of Uncle Feng, there would be no one in the whole family. Dare to do this, no matter whether it is the boss or Jia Rui, or Lin Zhixiao and Wu Xingdeng, they all dare not take this risk.

Wang Xifeng is also a little worried. Although she is hiding behind the scenes, she will be the ultimate beneficiary of this matter, and in the long run, she will still be the biggest beneficiary. Once the Lai family is not brought down, she will be the biggest beneficiary in the future. Don't even think about the Jia family continuing to live the same life as before.

Wang Xifeng pondered for a moment, "It still depends on Brother Keng's preparations, and we have to wait for his confirmation, but he will be leaving for Yongping soon, and he also promised me to tell me about this matter before leaving. Once it’s done, I think he should have an explanation.”

Just when Wang Xifeng was talking about Feng Ziying, Feng Ziying was riding her horse towards Jia's house full of melancholy.

Within two or three days, everyone in the capital knew about the restoration of the Feng family's second wife. The application for concurrent residence has been submitted to the Ministry of Rites. If nothing unexpected happens, the approval of the concurrent residence will be issued within three to five days.

There is no doubt that the Xue family and Baochai should have gotten the news. It would be unjustifiable if he never showed up.

 So no matter how difficult it was, Feng Ziying had to come to Xue's house, and he firmly believed that his mother's work could be done.

Baochai lives in Wuyuan in the Grand View Garden, while Aunt Xue lives in a small courtyard in the northeast corner of Jia's Mansion, not far from the gate of Grand View Garden. To enter from the gate of Jia's Mansion, you have to walk around alleys and aisles, and now If you go to Jia Mansion by yourself, you will inevitably attract the attention of countless people.

 I am really in the limelight now.

Thinking about the fact that he was going to Yongping soon, he would not have much time to visit the Grand View Garden. Feng Ziying also felt a little unspeakable in her heart. Everything beautiful in the Grand View Garden seemed to be far away from her. This was really a bit... Pity.

As soon as he entered through the corner door, the attitudes of the concierge boys were different from before. They were all smiling and hurriedly greeted him, "Uncle Feng is here?"

Feng Ziying was not familiar with the servants at the door. She only recognized one of them, Li Liuer, who was the cousin of Jia Zhengchang who followed Li Shier.

These boys are more successful than others, so they never get offended. They casually took out a bunch of copper coins from their pockets and threw them to Li Liu'er, "Well, I just came here. Liu'er, give it to the big guys and drink a cup of moisturizing." voice,…"

"Okay, you're so polite." Seeing that Feng Ziying could call him by name, Li Liuer was so happy that his whiskers were raised, and he hurriedly took the string of money with both hands, "Are you here to see me, Master Bao, or do you want to see me? Go to the garden?"

Everyone was tacitly aware of Feng Ziying's visit to the Jia Mansion. Miss Lin's future husband would be her cousin in the future. Of course, no one said it clearly. After all, it is still inappropriate for unmarried couples to meet alone these days. Elders must be present. , of course no one cares too much about this.

Everyone has heard that this gentleman has now been promoted to a fifth-rank official, and will go down to become a fellow magistrate in the future. In the past two days, this matter has been spread in the house, and people are talking about it with excitement and salivation.

You must know that Mr. Zheng is a foreign minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he is only from the fifth rank. He is already one level lower than this man. Logically speaking, Mr. Zheng will salute and call Uncle Feng "Master" when he sees Uncle Feng, and this is a government. Tongzhi is much more powerful than the idle position of Mr. Zheng in the Ministry of Industry. Think about what a powerful person the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture is. Now Uncle Feng goes to Yongping Mansion to be the master of Tongzhi, which is exactly what he is like.

　　　Lao Rui works very hard, brothers, the monthly votes help us!
