Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 25

In the early morning of the next day, Brother Rong and Ke Qing went to invite Youshi to Ann.

"What's the matter with that silly girl?" Jia Rong asked curiously on the road, "I looked at her with strange eyes as soon as I left the room this morning, as if I owed her money and didn't pay her back!"

Ke Qing covered her small mouth with her hands and smiled lightly: "It's not that the master owes her money."

"What's the matter, why would I owe money to a maid?" Brother Rong pretended to be Keqing, joking, "I didn't even know her name a few days ago."

Ruizhu's face was also full of smiles, and took the opportunity to joke: "It is said that a spring night is worth a thousand gold. Last night, Que'er waited for our master in the room all night. It's not that the master owes her money, it's still a lot of money. .”

Baozhu grinned and said, "Grandpa and grandma haven't seen each other. When I woke up this morning, Que'er looked like a Bodhisattva in a temple. Look, it turned out that Sister Ruizhu kindly washed it for her."

Jia Rong smiled softly and didn't say anything else, that silly maid seemed to be doing this.

After turning around the gate of the instrument, even if you have come to You's Courtyard.Enter the main room and invite You Shi'an.

Youshi has been much more comfortable in the past two days. If it wasn't for Sister Feng who came here yesterday to set off firecrackers, she would have been happier.She invited Brother Rong and his wife to sit down, ordered Yindie and Wan'er to bring up many rare and rare fruits, and kept the couple eating in the courtyard.

"It's not that I insist on arguing with Feng Lazi." You Shi put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "She's a sister from the royal family's mansion, and her words are rougher than those from my country. She's gone with your daughter-in-law again." I'm afraid she will spoil my precious daughter-in-law."

"Madam calm down, next time Sister Feng comes to quarrel with you, Rong'er will scold you back." Jia Rong laughed.

"You can't wait to beat her legs and shoulders every day, and you are willing to scold her?" Youshi snorted softly, and she hadn't heard the rumors about Rong'er and Sister Feng.

Otherwise, she wouldn't say that Sister Feng is more like the hostess of Ningguo Mansion.

Jia Rong looked at Qin Keqing's face, and quickly peeled off a grape.Serve it to You Shi, to gag her. "Madam, try this grape, it tastes much better than the previous one."

You Shi watched Rong'er holding the grapes for herself, and was slightly absent-minded.Considering that his daughter-in-law is still here, he calmed down.Thinking back to when I first got married, Mr. Zhen was so considerate, but it's a pity that Mr. Zhen got a new love not long after.

She picked up the small grape in her hand and put it into her mouth, it was indeed very sweet.

Looking at Rong'er's handsome face, and seeing her daughter-in-law's coquettish appearance, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

You Shi said: "There are many people in the two prefectures, and their mouths are not strict. No matter where you go or what you do, you have to consider the reputation of the two prefectures."

"Forget it." Jia Rong didn't hear Youshi's voice-over at all, and said to herself, "Madam, don't be too careful in the future, I told you in the clan yesterday. Anyone who spreads rumors will be arrested and beaten. It doesn't matter whether it's the servants of the two mansions or the relatives of the outside house, it's all the same."

You Shi also nodded and sighed: "It's time to deal with it. These days, I have also adjusted the atmosphere of the inner house; Rong'er also told Mr. Lai that he should take care of the servants in the outer house. It is because of the bad reputation in the mansion." , your sister-in-law never goes back to the mansion to visit. It will be your grandfather's birthday in a few days, she should go back."

Jia Rong nodded and said: "Rong'er save me, little aunt will remember to invite you."

"Can you please her? Regardless of how old your sister-in-law is, she has more ideas than anyone else. Have you ever seen her in the West Mansion so many times? She doesn't even want to see me as a sister-in-law, let alone you Nephew's."

amount……

It is true to say that Jia Rong has been in Ningguo Mansion for so many days and has been to Rongguo Mansion many times, but she has never seen Xichun once.If he hadn't heard Sister Feng mention it once or twice, he would have thought that there was no such person as Xichun in this world.

"It's fine if she is determined to raise her in the West Mansion, if she still misses any family affection." You Shi shook her head, "Let your Aunt Feng take your wife to invite her in a few days, she hasn't met her nephew and daughter-in-law yet, The family always sees."

That's fine, after all, Xichun is Grandpa Jia Jing's own daughter.The new niece and daughter-in-law went to invite her, but she couldn't bear to refuse.Jia Rong really couldn't believe how stubborn a four or five-year-old girl could be.

I can only wrong Keqing to say a few pleasant words, and just coax her.

"The day after tomorrow is your Aunt Feng's birthday. The gift in your yard has been prepared. When the time comes, Rong's daughter-in-law will come here to pick it up and take it with her."

Why get together for birthdays in September?

Jia Rong smiled and said, "Please worry about it, Madam, but it saved us a lot of money."

You Shi pointed to Jia Rong and said to Ke Qing: "Look at your uncle, even after hanging out with Feng Lazi for a long time, he has become a miser."

Ke Qing covered her mouth and smiled like a flower blooming.

On the way back to the hospital, Keqing and Rui Zhuzhuzhu said: "You can listen to Madam's words. From now on, your mouth will be firmer, no matter what you say, you will speak clearly."

Jia Rong knew Qin Keqing's heart, and knew that she was worried about these trifles again.

"You are too nervous. What kind of flowers can people in our yard spread, and ordinary jokes are fine. It's just that if you listen to the nonsense in the two houses, treat it as fart, and don't spread it." Brother Rong Er laughed and said: "Yesterday, Jia Fan from the sixth house and Jia Qin from the third house were almost expelled from the genealogy because they spread lies about the old men."

Rui Zhuzhuzhu was taken aback when she heard this.If you spread a few rumors, you will be expelled from the family tree, and if these servants are arrested, you will not be able to sell them.

Nodding repeatedly at the moment, I swore in my heart not to make any jokes indiscriminately in the future.

"uncle."

When Jia Rong heard someone calling her, she asked Rui Zhuzhu to take Keqing back to the courtyard first, and then walked towards the main hall of Ningguo Mansion.

"Director Lai, did you sleep well yesterday?"

Lai Sheng grinned with embarrassment and said, "Master will laugh at me. Brother Qiang asked me to pass on the word that the cement kiln has already chosen the site. The craftsman said it will be auspicious in two days, so he asked if he would like to watch the ceremony. "

"Building a kiln requires a sacrifice?" Jia Rong asked speechlessly.

"This is the rule of the craftsmen. No matter building a kiln or a house, after the location is determined, they will kill chickens to sacrifice the land and worship the gods."

"Let Brother Qiang and Zong Cheng preside over it, and I won't go there. Call me again when the kiln opens."

Jia Rong is not interested in this kind of thing.It is estimated that it will be the same as building houses in the village in later generations. Putting sacrifices and burning some paper money can be worth seeing.Seeing that Lai Sheng was about to leave, Jia Rong said, "Leave in no hurry."

Lai Sheng asked, "Is there anything else you can order?"

Jia Rong immediately told Lai Sheng about the rules set by the clan yesterday, and if there were any rumors spreading outside the Ning Mansion, she would hold him, the head of the Ning State Mansion, accountable.

"This……"

Jia Rong also knew from the bottom of her heart that the East and the West are the same, no matter the maid in the inner house or the servant in the outer house, the relationship is intricate.Maybe this young man is the son of a nanny, and this maid is the confidant of some wife, neither of which can be easily offended.

Even if the chief managers of the two governments were to deal with it, they would still look forward and backward and be timid.If one is not handled well, it may offend a certain wife in the two mansions.

"You don't have to worry. In terms of relationship, no one can compare to your Lai family. Even if you sue the ancestors of the West Mansion, with Lai Nanny here, you have the right to do so, no matter which wife can take you .”

Lai Sheng smiled wryly, if he can't take it, he can't take it, but if he offends, he will always be missed.After all, the Lai family is a servant in the two mansions, and the wives in the mansion took revenge, and life will not be so easy in the future.

Uncle Xiaorong said so, and it was a rule set in the ancestral hall, so he could only sigh and implement it.
