Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 91 The First Time... ([-] words)
"Oh, I'm dying of anxiety." If it wasn't for the old lady's room and so many people, Wang Xifeng really wanted to rush up and give Brother Rong a shot. "It's just a few lines, you read it over and over again, but you are talking about what is written in it."

Brother Rong looked at it for a while, then handed the letter back to Sister Feng with regret.Seeing Wang Xifeng's distorted expression from the corner of his eye, he suddenly remembered that Feng Lazi was illiterate, so he said in a flash of inspiration, "Auntie, keep the letter."

Jia Mu asked, "What did the Wang family letter say?"

Brother Rong replied: "Uncle and great-grandfather said in the letter that the Wang family had saved their capital for the great-grandson, and the emperor finally agreed to an errand for the nine gates in the inner city. It just happened that King Zhongshun wrote many letters about the cement and recommended the great-grandson a job. The official in charge of the department. My uncle and the prince had a dispute, but the emperor temporarily suppressed the approval and delayed the matter."

Mrs. Wang also read the contents of the letter and knew that Jia Rong had not lied.Just hearing him say it, there was still a strange look on his face.

It is not uncommon for the brothers of the Wang family to protect Jia Rong's capital.The Jia and Wang families were already close, even if she didn't like Jia Rong, she wouldn't stop the two houses from producing a decent official.

It's just that such a bastard boy, how could he have something to do with the old prince.

None of the wives in the prince's family knew that King Zhongshun was the most trusted person in the world, and he was in charge of several government departments by himself.Jia Rong was able to be recommended by the Thirteenth Lord, at least in the eyes of the Thirteenth Lord.

Mrs. Wang sighed in her heart, Jia Rong is afraid that she is about to gain momentum, and her own precious jade will become weaker and weaker against the background of this bastard.She felt helpless, but she couldn't stop it.

Mrs. Xing, who was kneeling on the ground, was even more shocked.In terms of title, the first prize of Master She in the mansion is higher than that of Jia Rong, but if Jia Rong becomes an official, the situation will be different.She thought to herself, I hope the emperor would give Jia Rong a loose official with no position and no power, and Jia Rong must not be allowed to be an official.

Mrs. Xing thought to herself that the two mansions had the most snobbish eyes, among which the old ancestor was the most snobbish.

Just because Mr. She doesn't want to be an official, he prefers Mr. Zheng who is an official.In the future, if Jia Rong really became an official, his status in the two mansions would not be able to rise rapidly?At that time, I am afraid that Master She will not be taken seriously.

On the other hand, Wang Xifeng's brows were full of spring, and there was love in the corner of his mouth.He completely forgot about Brother Rong's act of provoking her illiteracy just now.In front of the crowd, he quietly took a step towards Brother Rong, smelling the familiar incense on Rong'er before giving up.

Such a slight smile is like a bright plum blossom in the snow in cold spring.The flaming red lips parted slightly, revealing the white teeth inside, and whispered: "Your uncle's hard work is not in vain, our family is going to be an official again."

With this smile, Brother Rong couldn't move his eyes.He couldn't tell, Sister Feng said that it was the hard work of the uncle and grandpa, but she was actually showing credit to herself.If Wang Xifeng hadn't written a letter to the Wang family, Wang Ziteng would not have taken the initiative to do this.

Brother Rong lowered his head and said softly: "Auntie, please thank Uncle and Grandpa for taking care of Rong'er."

Mother Jia frowned slightly as she listened to the conversation between the two. She didn't know the connotation of their words.I just remembered that the Jia family used to be a duo, and the Wang family had to rely on the Jia family at that time.Now it's the other way around, it's really ironic that the eldest grandson of the Jia family still needs the Wang family's copy.

Immediately said coldly: "They are all relatives in the family, and it is reasonable to help each other. There is no need to be too polite. During the Chinese New Year, Brother Rong and his daughter-in-law will come to the Wang family to visit and live for two days."

Wang Xifeng is very shrewd, seeing the attitude of the old lady.He must have misunderstood the meaning of what he and Rong'er said, and echoed: "The old ancestor is not bad. In the past years, our family has helped their Wang family a lot. This is probably the so-called courtesy. The family, There is no need to talk about the two."

After hearing this, Jia's mother gave up, and said with a smile, "You are talking nonsense when you are a poor householder. What do you call them the Wang family? You are also raised by the Wang family. If I hear such things again in the future, I will let your aunt slap you."

There was also a man surnamed Wang present.

Jia Rong quietly glanced at Mrs. Wang, and sure enough, she still had a far-fetched smile on her face.I only heard Mrs. Wang say: "The old ancestor still doesn't know Feng girl's temperament? In front of anyone, he can just say good things, and there is no difference between you and me in my heart."

It has to be said that Mrs. Wang will still choose to protect her niece at critical times.

Anyway, let's just let it go because of what happened to old nun Jingxu today.Sister Feng went back with her maid in the yard first, and Brother Rong also went out the door. When she met the girl who had picked a strange fruit for the old lady, she said, "Thank you girl today."

Yuanyang just heard what happened in the room, and knows that Brother Rong is going to be an official.He smiled immediately and said, "I didn't do much to help, Mr. Xiaorong, don't be so polite."

Jia Rong was in a good mood because of the news of her official position, and she didn't stay long in Jia's mother's courtyard.I only saw Mrs. Xing in the room still kneeling on the cold ground, saying goodbye to Yuanyang happily.

"You haven't taken off your official hat and court clothes yet, do you need to be so proud?" Brother Rong walked for a while, and saw several people waiting for him in front of him.

"Why did Auntie stop here?"

Wang Xifeng snorted and said: "Look at you, it seems that you don't want to see me? I just saved your life, but I didn't expect it to be a bastard who forgot his kindness."

Brother Rong looked at Ping'er and the others behind Sister Feng from the corner of his eye, and said with a smile, "Auntie used words indiscriminately again, that's ungrateful."

"Things without the slightest conscience, who will chew the words with you. It was a waste of me sending a letter to the Wang family for you, and I didn't get half of the benefits in the end."

Jia Rong understood Wang Xifeng's words in an instant.It turned out that Sister Feng was thinking about the thank you she just said in Jiamu's courtyard, and she was here to collect debts.

Brother Rong said: "It's not that Rong'er is reluctant to give my aunt a 'thank you gift', it's not that the court uniform hat hasn't been delivered yet, it's strange to give this gift now."

Sister Feng squinted at him, her thin lips curled slightly and said, "Are you remembering to return home to deliver the good news to your daughter-in-law?"

How could Jia Rong admit such a thing.Wang Xifeng is a famous vinegar jar in Jia's mansion, as long as he recognizes it, the jar will be broken if not broken.Don't you want to get a sour smell all over your body?
He said: "Auntie, this is a misunderstanding. Rong'er thought in her heart that today's matter is all due to the old nun of Shuiyue nunnery. These things happened inexplicably, and my aunt almost asked for help from the old ladies and wives. Evil. I'm going back to the government to figure out how to trouble Shuiyuean."

Speaking of Shuiyue Nunnery, Sister Feng also gritted her teeth, hating old nun Jingxu in her heart.

"Let me deal with this matter. Now that you have a title and want to be promoted, it's better not to get involved in these matters."

How dare you let Sister Feng handle this matter, this girl has no priorities and doesn't follow any rules.If someone is killed, the Jia family will not be able to deal with it even if they are reasonable.

Brother Rong hurriedly said: "We didn't find anything else to harm her, we only need to find out that Shuiyue Nunnery has made a living in recent years. If there is anything to do with power and bullying, let the local county master lock them up."

Sister Feng asked suspiciously: "They? Do you want to beat Shuiyue Temple directly?"

"If there is any harm, we will arrest them all. If there is no harm, let the county master send them to other nearby temples."

Sister Feng gave this guy a blank look, and said: "It seems that you really don't know the situation of Shuiyue Temple."

"Isn't this Shuiyue nunnery just a nun's temple? Is there any difference?"

"There are a lot of ways among them." Sister Feng sneered, "Do you really think it's a lie for the two wives in the mansion to respect that old nun Jingxu as a Bodhisattva? Far away, it can be regarded as a prosperous place outside Shenjing City. If you can make a name for yourself there, you must have connections with everyone in Shenjing.”

It's true, in any industry, those who can make a name for themselves should not be underestimated.It's just that Jia Rong didn't quite understand, and asked, "What are the ways?"

"The old nun Jingxu of Shuiyue Temple is the best at the "Blood Pot Sutra". Whenever a girl in Shenjing's family gives birth, she has to invite several masters to read it for a few days. Because Jingxu is a nun, she is even more respected by wealthy families. Huanxi. Therefore, this old nun Jingxu has close ties with various families and prefectures in Shenjing, although we are not afraid of her, but it is not easy to get her."

At that time, the customs and superstition of the "Blood Pot Sutra" believed that only by asking someone to recite the Sutra can the sins of pregnant women be eliminated.Therefore, all the Duke's family who asked Jingxu old nun to read the "Blood Pen Jing" will regard Jingxu as a benefactor.

Jia Rong frowned.I'm afraid that when many children of Jia's family were born, they would invite old nun Jingxu to recite scriptures to get rid of their sins.Otherwise, how could an old Buddhist nun be valued so much by Jia Mu and Mrs. Xing Wang.

Sister Feng said: "Now I understand why the old lady has such an attitude?"

Brother Rong nodded and smiled wryly, "Auntie, why didn't you stop me that day?"

"You have a temper like a bison, who can stop you?" Sister Feng snorted, "Besides, Jingxu is playing tricks in front of me, throwing her out of the house is considered light."

Wang Xifeng is still the same Wang Xifeng.Brother Rong asked: "Auntie is going to punish her?"

"Why bother to punish her? She is showing face to the Jia family now because the mansion is unwilling to send her a letter, and she has been humiliated by me. Why don't I ask someone to send a letter to Chang'an and ask her for some money?" Come here with a thousand taels of silver."

This... Jia Rong was dumbfounded, and murmured: "Auntie, why are you still..."

Sister Feng snorted and said, "If you are worried, write the letter yourself. Send it to the Jiedu envoy of Chang'an, explain the situation one by one, and ask the Yun family not to take care of the affairs of Zhang and Li's families."

Ok!

This girl is still doing crooked ways. She used to use money to do things!It's good now, I don't do anything with money, but make trouble.But this kind of thing is better than playing power.There is just one thing, if this old nun Jingxu is publicized, the Jia family will gain a reputation of being greedy for money and incompetent.

Brother Rong hesitated and said: "It's better not to be so good, Auntie will leave this matter to Rong'er."

Sister Feng wondered, "What's your idea?"

Looking at it, Sister Feng really hated it.Brother Rong said: "Rong'er can make up his own mind, just don't interfere with Auntie."

"Then I'll just wait and see." Wang Xifeng said with a strange air, "You may not know that old nun Jingxu has an apprentice named Zhizhi'er. I heard your wife mentioned this nun before."

What a coincidence.Brother Rong was speechless. It turned out that Zhizhi'er was a nun from Shuiyue Temple.No wonder when I heard the words Shuiyuean that day, I felt a little familiar.

Immediately snorted: "It doesn't matter who she is, if she doesn't have a good heart, just follow her master's example. No one can keep her, so she can be punished as she pleases."

After Jia Rong heard about Smarter's identity, she felt that this matter should be dealt with seriously.

Seeing Rong'er like this, Wang Xifeng became inexplicably confused.No wonder King Zhongshun favored him!Even though she was usually out of touch, when all the signs showed, Rong'er still couldn't see others doing evil in her heart.

Are the things I did considered evil?If he knows, how will he miss me.Sister Feng sighed in her heart, her interest was greatly reduced, and she forced a smile.Said: "You can grasp the scale yourself."

Jia Rong looked at her and thought she was not feeling well today.Called Ping'er over, and said: "My aunt is depressed today, and I don't know what happened to her, so I asked Miss Ping to take good care of her. When I leave the city in the afternoon, I will bring Miss Ping'er some rouge from Jiangnan. Come."

Ping'er smiled and said, "It's my job to take care of grandma, so I don't need a gift from Grandpa Xiaorong."

Uncle Rong said: "I also know my aunt's temper. The girl accompanied her to take care of her. I think she has suffered a lot of grievances for no reason. My aunt wants to stand up to her subordinates, and there are few rewards. Just think of me as sending the girl for my aunt."

Ping'er had a strange feeling in her heart, but she knew her identity, if she really took things from Uncle Xiao Rong, she would have suffered a disaster.Said: "Master Xiaorong, please don't harm me, how can you give me rouge powder at will. If the uncle is willing, if Ping'er is missing something someday, the uncle will help buy it when he leaves the house."

There are certain things that men are not as careful as women, or Jia Rong forgot the precautions in this area for a while.After saying this, he just remembered that although Ping'er was Wang Xifeng's dowry, he was also Jia Lian's future roommate.

Brother Rong nodded and said, "Then it's settled."

After Rong'er left, Ping'er caught up with Second Mistress, and heard Second Mistress ask, "What did Rong'er just tell you?"

Ping'er didn't know about the relationship between Second Mistress and Uncle Xiao Rong, so how could he understand the meaning contained in these words, and said with a smile: "Uncle Xiao Rong saw that Grandma's face is not in good spirits, and asked me to take care of Grandma."

"That's all?" Sister Feng asked blankly.

"There are only a few words. Grandma's nephew is really interesting. In order to make me take good care of grandma, he even tried to buy me something to bribe me. This is the first time Ping'er has heard of such a filial man!"

Wang Xifeng showed a strange expression and asked, "Are you acceptable?"

"Ping'er is a person close to grandma, and taking care of grandma is his duty, so how dare he accept a gift from Uncle Xiao Rong." Miss Ping said without hiding anything, "I just made an excuse to say that if Ping'er gets short in the future, I will use it When you buy something, please ask Uncle Xiaorong to buy it when you return home."

After listening to Ping'er's words, Sister Feng nodded in satisfaction, but when she thought of Rong'er's arrival, she couldn't help sighing.Question: "Liyin..."
