The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 76 Confrontation ([-])

Jia Min, on the other hand, is still calm and quiet every day, just reading and writing in the study.When I see Jia Lian, I will have a polite chat with him.

The last time Jia Min went back to the mansion to kowtow to the old lady, but the old lady didn't see her.It can be regarded as a blow to Jia Min.

However, this is not a big deal.

However, what happened later was a bit too much.Even if you don't wait to see him anymore, you have to be decent in terms of etiquette.People go back and don't even give them a meal. Wherever this matter goes, it is a shameful thing.

Besides, this matter has now spread to the outside world, and rumors have spread from those aristocratic families.The meaning inside and out is that the Jia family has gone too far.

Now that I am on this errand, it is clear that I am here to monitor, and it is obvious that I regard Fourth Min as an enemy.

At this time, if you come here to buy wine without bringing money, isn't it just adding fuel to the fire?Will this Min Lao Si agree?

It's true that Sister Feng is so ruthless in doing things.Now that he has been pushed into a corner, if he feels that there is no way out, it will be troublesome to fight to the death.

The matter of Meng'er's poisoning last time, he still holds the handle in his hand, if it is shaken out, it will be a big trouble.

Besides, I always feel that the calmness of the fourth Min is a bit abnormal.

When he was in the mansion, people didn't give him food, he could bear this kind of thing, and he was still so quiet now, it didn't look like him.

Could it be that he is planning something?
What can he plan?He was destined to lose the watermelon and Ganoderma lucidum.What chance is there to turn over the book?
Sigh, forget it, let's humiliate him now, I have to take the wine back first, it's important not to delay the business.

While thinking, Jia Lian arrived at the door of Jia Min's study.After hesitating for a moment, he knocked on the door and went in.

"Oh, Lian's second brother is here, sit down, what's your order?"

Jia Min stood up slightly and motioned Jia Lian to sit down.

"There is something, I want to trouble Brother Min."

So Jia Lian told him about wanting to drink.

"For such a trivial matter, Brother Lian can just ask Jiao Li. Just tell me what I said, and you can take as much money as you want. As for the money, there is no need to talk about it. The old ancestor's big day, talking about money seems to be too much. "

"Thank you, brother Min. If there is nothing else, brother will leave first."

"There is one thing. I just asked Lian's second brother to send a message."

"Who are you going to send a message to? My brother will definitely do it."

"Send a message to Lian's second sister-in-law, Bao's second brother, and Rong's son. I have written down what they did, and I will seek justice from them in the future."

"you……."

Just as Jia Lian was about to lose his temper, he saw Jia Min's cold eyes staring at him like knives.As soon as he said a word, he held back abruptly.

Fourth Min, what's your name?Is there such a message?Who do you ask to carry this word? You have to ask me to carry it?Don't you know that Sister Feng and I belong to the same family?
"In addition, tell Second Brother Bao and Brother Rong that I will give them one last chance. Come to me before dark today to cancel the bet. We will still be a family from now on. If not, you are the ones who forced me , At that time, don't blame me for turning my face and denying people."

"I, I must pass on the message."

This time, Jia Lian didn't hesitate anymore, he gave Jia Min his hand, and went out to find Jiao Li to drink.

This way, Jia Lian walked very easily.

Because he finally figured out that Fourth Min was putting on a show.

He asked Baoyu and Brother Rong several times to cancel the bet, but there was only one explanation, he was really scared now.That watermelon can't be sold for 5000 taels of silver at all.The Ganoderma lucidum can't be grown at all.

Otherwise, now that he has been forced to this point, how can he still be so kind, thinking of being a family?

Heh heh, Fourth Min, you still showed your fox tail.I want to terminate the contract now, it's too late!
In front of me, he said he wanted to seek justice from Sister Feng.Who do you think you are?How should I put it, Sister Feng is also a member of my family, do you ever speak like that?

This time the old lady is going to deal with you, do you still want to survive?joke!

Looking at Jia Lian's suddenly relaxed expression and the background of his easy departure, Jia Min smiled wryly and shook his head.

Last time Pinger went to talk about it once, Feng Ziying went to talk about it once, and this time I said it again, a total of three times, I have given you enough opportunities.

Alas, it is really stubborn.

Jia Min didn't know that Ping'er begged for him once more, but actually it was four times.

After the wine was filled, Li Hua took the car and left.Naturally, he brought back Jia Lian's words: Fourth Master Min was actually bluffing, and the matter of watermelon and Ganoderma lucidum was purely nonsense, and the bet must not be terminated.

Of course, there is that sentence: Fourth Master Min wants to seek justice from Second Grandma Lian, Second Master Bao, and Brother Rong.

Alas, Fourth Master Min, you treat this mansion as a court, and you still want to seek justice?Is this the place to be fair?

If he had known that he was just bluffing, why should he be concerned about him just now?Even if I took someone to fill the wine directly, he would not dare to stop it.Now that I have found the second master Lian, it seems that I have no courage.

When I saw you giving dividends to the servants, I thought you were a little bit courageous, but now I see that you are nothing more than an idiot, no wonder no one wants to see you anymore.

Not long after Li Hua left here, the car from Zhou's carpenter's shop came.The gift box was customized by Jia Min.

The box is made of bamboo, and a grid is installed inside, with a total of 12 grids.The bamboo weaving on all sides has some gaps in the middle, and some things are placed inside, which can be seen from the outside.

Most coincidentally, the box also has a handle to lift the box.There is a small mechanism on the lid to lock the box.

Jia Min called Jiao Li, Ning Er, Liu Tiejiang and others to unload the box into the warehouse. No one else knew what this thing was for. Jiao Li asked, and Jia Min only said that he would know tomorrow, and no one else asked. asked.

The last thing to be unloaded was a big burden, which was filled with small satin bags the size of a fist, and I didn't know what they were for.

Jiao Li, Nan'er, and Ning'er have experienced the whole process of the Guo Gongjiu incident last time.That time, when they were dying of worry, fourth master suddenly brought back a bunch of bottles and boxes, and they won a big victory.

This time, fourth master got these things back at the last moment.This made their hearts open all of a sudden.

I just said that fourth master has a way.

They looked at each other, and they both saw this meaning in each other's eyes.Although they still don't know what fourth master can do, from this moment on, they are no longer worried.They believed that fourth master would definitely win.

Oh, they didn't think so before, and no one thought that fourth master had a way.

Seeing Jia Min and the others unloading things from the car, Jia Lian wanted to go to have a look.However, he was stopped by soldiers.

However, he still saw clearly that they were some boxes.

But what's the use of getting some boxes?If you pretend to be a ghost, it's too late now.

The first day passed quickly.

On the second day of junior high school, Yedu Juli was calm on the surface, but a scorching atmosphere seemed to be slowly spreading.At dawn tomorrow, the result of this sensational gambling game in the city will be announced.

People are looking forward to it, not knowing what will happen tomorrow.

However, from the expressions, it can still be clearly seen that the expressions of each person are different.

Jia Lian's person has a relaxed expression.

Jia Min's person has a dignified and nervous expression.

Those soldiers were full of doubts.

On the streets and alleys of the city, it seems that many advertisements have been posted overnight.

"On the third day of August, there was an auspicious auspicious appearance in the Ye Du Residence. Watermelons and apples were auctioned at the same time. The starting price is: watermelons are three taels of silver each, and apples are one tael of silver each. Welcome to patronize. Those who bring less than ten taels of silver are not allowed to enter."

What watermelon, what apple?Selling so expensive, this is a robbery!
After dinner, Feng Ziying came back from the city, went into Jia Min's study, and took out an advertisement.

"I saw this in the city, so I took it off. But Brother Min did it?"

"That's right, it's my name, Boss Hu of Hu's Winery, who did it."

"Brother Min really intends to cash in on the bet?"

Feng Ziying showed an expression of disbelief.

"Naturally, I have to honor it. Don't you think I'm bluffing?"

Feng Ziying didn't say anything.

"Is everything done?"

Jia Min smiled, made Feng Ziying a cup of tea, and motioned him to sit down.

"The other 40 people from Qiu Liang will arrive here at Maoshi tomorrow, and the girls from Meiyuelou and Yuhualou will also arrive here at Maoshi."

"Well, everything is ready. Go, call Lin Dajiang and our people, and let you experience it. It's time to uncover the mystery."

Although it is already autumn, it is not too cold in the evening.After Jia Lian finished eating, he chatted with his people in a corner of the yard.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the mansion, Yedujuli is relatively deserted.None of them want to stay here.Fortunately, it will be over tomorrow, and people feel a little relieved tonight.

I saw the people from Yeduju walking into Jia Min's study one after another, and after a while, they all came out again with serious expressions, and then entered the so-called cultivation room for growing ganoderma.

After a while, they walked back together again.Jia Min opened the garden, and those people entered the garden.

Lin Zhixiao, Zhou Rui and Wu Jinxiao wanted to follow, but Nan'er stopped them.In dispute.Two soldiers came over, Lin Zhixiao and the others knew that the soldiers would not stand by them, so they retreated by themselves.

"Second Master Lian, are they...?"

Although Jia Lian felt a little strange about Jia Min's actions, he didn't think he would come up with any tricks.

"Let them go, no matter how much you toss, he won't be able to get any flowers."

After two cups of tea, those people came out.

Because the sky was getting dark, I couldn't see any expression on his face.

Jia Lian got up and took the lead to go back to the house, and the rest followed behind and went back to the house one after another.

As soon as Jia Min led the people back to the study, the atmosphere in the room immediately became lively.

Fang Xiucai was almost trembling all over, with trembling hands, and finally made a cup of tea for Jia Min.

"Fourth Master, it's really unexpected that there is such a miracle. In this life, Fang has not lived in vain."
