Chapter 136 Storm (Update 1)
Still need to be punished?
Wang Zisheng only felt the wound at the corner of his eye throbbing, "Old lady..."
"Shut up, did I talk to you?"
What makes Grandmother Jia most angry is this scoundrel Wang Zisheng.
Because this scoundrel, who was looked down upon by everyone, teamed up with Wang and treated her son like a little fool.
The Wang family didn't take the Jia family seriously at all! "Nephew, you are the head of the Wang family. I only ask you."
Wang Ziteng: “…”
He looked at his sister, whose face was pale and who might have been scolded badly, and then at his brother-in-law, who had difficulty walking and was tied up with real whips, and knew that the old lady was really angry.
"As soon as I heard the news, I rushed over."
He was in a wheelchair with a helpless look, "Old lady, you also saw the injury on the corner of my second brother's eye." His second brother finally came back alive, but he was accidentally injured again. Wang Ziteng regretted and felt distressed, "Don't worry, I will definitely discipline him. So, let's go to the East Palace first, and I will let him apologize to Sister-in-law Shen and Nephew Zhen in front of everyone."
He tried to avoid the main issue and ignore the trap his second brother had set for his brother-in-law.
“…That’s all?”
Grandmother Jia didn't care how he disciplined Wang Zisheng. She only cared about her own foolish son and stupid daughter-in-law. "If that's all, then the two uncles should just leave the Jia family!"
From now on, no one from the Wang family will ever set foot in Rongguo Mansion again.
Unless Er'er and his family leave Rongguo Mansion, she will have no control over them.
"The threshold of my Jia family is too low to allow the uncles of the Wang family to step on my humble ground."
Grandmother Jia ordered: "Come here..."
She was about to ask him to send her away when Wang Ziteng hurriedly said, "Old lady, I know that what happened today was all my second brother's fault."
Before he could finish his words, he received a disdainful snort from Old Lady Jia. His heart paused and he could only look at the sister he wanted to save.
When he got home, how to punish his second brother was up to him. If he was held responsible, he could just make a scene. But what about his sister? Wang Ziteng had no choice but to say, "My sister was actually implicated by my second brother. You know, he just escaped death not long ago, so everyone in the family had to obey him."
“…”
Grandmother Jia said nothing, but just looked on coldly.
Wang is the daughter-in-law of the Jia family, but her betrayal has been revealed in the East Palace. After forcing Shen and Zhen'er, a younger generation, to say that they would break off their ties with Er'er, they still dared to refuse to give in. Whose power are they relying on?
The Jia family has not collapsed yet.
The Wang family, which relied on the Jia family to rise to power, dared to do this. If the Jia family handed over all its connections in the military, would they still have a way to survive?
There is no need for outsiders to bully the Jia family. The Wang family alone can bully the Jia family to death.
At this moment, Lady Jia's face was full of majesty, and the anger in her eyes made Wang Ziteng tremble with fear.
He immediately thought of the Beijing camp.
"But your second brother is wrong, you shouldn't still be so dependent on him."
Wang Ziteng said to his sister bitterly, "Wanniang, you really did something wrong this time."
Wang: “…”
She knew that her elder brother was going to take action against her.
The mother-in-law called the couple over and kept scolding them. When she got angry, she even used her walking stick.
Although she was not hit, Wang knew that if her mother-in-law hit Jia Zheng once, she would want to hit her ten times.
"Mother, I was wrong," she knelt down and touched the ground with her head. "If you want to punish me, just do it. Don't get so angry that you hurt yourself." At this point, she cried softly, "I am willing to be buried in the ancestral hall with my husband."
I’m afraid the ancestral hall won’t provide them with ice basins.
It's so hot, and there are mosquitoes...
Wang could imagine how miserable they would be.
She really didn't want to go to the ancestral hall. She would rather eat vegetarian food for three years than eat the rice that recalled the bitter past and cherished the sweet past.
"The daughter-in-law also vowed to eat vegetarian food for three consecutive years in front of the Bodhisattva, in the hope that the Jia family would prosper."
“…”
“…”
Wang Ziteng and Wang Zisheng were heartbroken.
But the two knew that they could not beg for mercy.
Their pleas were of no use to Old Lady Jia. In fact, after she passed away, she would even become more angry and vent her anger on her younger sister.
"Isn't it right for you to pray to the Bodhisattva to bless the Jia family to prosper?"
Grandmother Jia looked down on them, "Yuanchun is about to get married, and Zhu'er is about to take the imperial examination." Lian'er, the eldest wife, was already a doctor in the armory, so there was no need for Wang to ask for the Buddha's blessing. Only Wang's own children from the second wife needed the Buddha's blessing at a critical moment. "Wang, when you were thinking about your second brother's so-called in-laws, did you think about Zhu'er's brothers and Yuanchun? They are your own children. Where do you put them when you bully their brothers like that?"
Wang: “…”
She thought, is Jia Zhen someone she can bully? She thought it was just a matter of going to Shuntian Prefecture.
Who knew it would turn out like this?
Wang was somewhat resentful of her injured second brother, but it was too late to say anything now. Her eldest sister-in-law in the East Palace must have complained harshly to the old lady.
It’s hateful that this old lady is so ungrateful. She would rather listen to others than protect her own son and daughter-in-law.
"I was wrong. I was blinded by greed. Old lady, please tell me how to punish me! I, your daughter-in-law, will bear all the consequences."
Wang's tears fell, "Master, I didn't expect the matter to be so serious. When we get to the ancestral hall, you must punish me severely!"
Jia Zheng: “…”
He was venting his anger on others, but he also believed what Wang said.
Because he didn't expect the matter to be so serious.
In the past few years, they have written many letters to various places and received many thanks. Why is it that now...
Jia Zheng did not dare to move. His summer clothes were thin and the thorns on the thorns would pierce his flesh if he moved. "Mother~" he begged his mother in a pitiful voice, "I know I was wrong. Please let us go to the East Palace and apologize to my eldest sister-in-law!"
Although my sister has already restrained the younger generations such as Yuanchun and Li Wan, they will definitely hear about what happened today from the servants!
If possible, Jia Zheng would like to die.
He had always been beaten by his father, but this was the first time he was beaten by his mother.
It really hurt when those crutches hit my body.
Jia Zheng suspected that his right thigh was swollen from being hit by his mother, otherwise why was it getting more and more painful?
Although he hated Wang for harming him like this, he really wanted to go into the ancestral hall and rest for a while!
"...My brother-in-law was implicated by my stupid second brother."
Wang Ziteng was not able to find his niece Wang Xifeng to help him, and he was a little angry. "Well, I'll make the decision. The Wang family has a separate courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing, plus a hundred acres of fertile land. It's perfect. Isn't my niece getting married soon? Just add it to her dowry list!"
Real estate and land in the suburbs of Beijing are becoming increasingly scarce, and now many people cannot buy them even at high prices.
"Old lady, even if you break bones, your tendons are still connected."
After giving him the benefits, Wang Ziteng played the emotional card again, "The Wang and Jia families are old relatives. It is precisely because I know your family is good that I took the initiative to marry Feng girl to me."
Feng'er and Lian'er are childhood sweethearts.
In the past, it might not have worked to mention her, as the old lady loved her second son more. But now it is different. The old lady is in the eldest wife's position, and her niece's husband is a doctor in the armory with a bright future. She has to take care of her grandson and his wife instead of her second son and his wife.
"My brother-in-law is a loyal gentleman, that's why he was bullied by this bastard in my family. But don't worry, as long as I, Wang Ziteng, am here, I will never let him suffer any harm, and I will never let anyone else suffer any harm to him."
As he spoke, he pointed once again to the spot on his second brother's head where blood was faintly seeping out, "Look, am I Wang Ziteng the kind of person who can't figure things out?"
My sister still has to live here.
My nephews and nieces are both very outstanding.
Wang Ziteng naturally loved him and said, "Come here, what kind of sticks are you using? Change them to rattan sticks for me."
ah?
Wang Zisheng is afraid of pain.
But I also knew that I couldn't object at this time.
"My dear old lady, look..."
Just as he was about to plead again, the gate of the courtyard facing the street rang, and the gatekeeper called out "Uncle". Wang Ziteng was certain in his heart, "Zhu'er has returned just in time," and he said to Jia Zhu who had hurried back, "Please join your uncle in begging your grandmother to calm down her wrath!"
"……grandmother!"
Jia Zhu was sweating all over from running, but he didn't care about anything else. He looked at his father first, then his mother, and then at his pitiful second uncle, and knelt down and said, "It's hot, you..."
"Get up!"
The old lady didn't want to embarrass her grandson, so she sighed and said, "If you want to plead for your parents, go ask your aunt and brother Zhen."
She was too embarrassed to say that your parents are traitors.
"You are not clear-headed, you don't know anything, you are being played for a fool, and you still think that person is a good person."
Speaking of which, Zhu'er is also pitiful, having such parents.
"Let's go to the East Palace."
Wang Ziteng, Jia Zheng and others all breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, they couldn't help but hold their breath.
How can I have the face to talk about them like this in front of Zhu'er?
"Mother!"
Jia Zhu first helped his mother up, and then went to help his father who was in even more difficulty, "Father~"
His tears fell, he avoided the thorns and used his hands to help his father pull the brambles, "Please go slowly."
Jia Zheng: “…”
He felt it, and was ashamed, guilty and sad.
Although her body felt better, the torment in her heart became even worse. She turned her head away and cried away from her son.
Jia Zhu helped him hold the thorns steady with one hand and supported him with the other, and said to the dejected Wang Zisheng, "Second uncle, please walk slower."
Wang Zisheng glanced at him, nodded somewhat ashamedly, and moved away from him calmly.
Jia Zhu saw this and was stunned. He said to his father who was still crying but had no hands to wipe away his tears, "Just bear with it for now. It will be fine when we get there."
"Son, why did you come just now?"
Wang followed her son and wanted to hug him and cry bitterly.
If this had come earlier, she and the master might not have had to suffer so much.
"I'll take the test today."
Jia Zhu was helpless, "No one is allowed to enter during the exam."
It was only after he finished his exams that he found out something had happened at home.
Although I don't know the specific reasons, I know the matter is serious when I see the severity of the punishment from my grandmother and uncle.
I don’t know what his father did again, this time he brought his mother and second uncle with him.
How would he cry and beg when he got to the East Mansion? "Mother, please help Dad hold me like this, I'll go find grandma."
It's so hot today, and my parents, who have been living a life of luxury, might suffer so much all of a sudden and could easily fall ill.
By then, there will be unrest in the society and my grandmother will be worried.
Once my grandmother gets worried, she will probably let it go.
Jia Zhu really felt that his father deserved a lesson.
He had recently had several dreams of the house being raided, with his father in shackles, being pushed around.
Jia Zhu was very scared, and strode to his grandmother, "Grandmother, let's tie the rattan sticks when we get to the East Palace. Otherwise, after walking all the way there, the wound... I'm afraid it won't heal. If it causes a high fever, won't you still have to worry about it?"
This? Grandmother Jia turned around and saw the bloodstains on Er'er's clothes. Her face changed and she said, "You go and do it."
“Hey~”
Jia Zhu hurried back to untie his father, "Father, take this whip and tie it up again in the East Palace."
After taking care of his father, he went to take care of his second uncle, "Second uncle, I'll tie him up when we get to the East Palace."
Wang Zisheng: “…”
I'm even more embarrassed to see my nephew.
Wang Ziteng, who was being carried, looked at his capable nephew and sighed softly.
At this time, Shen Ning was also on her way back home.
It was too hot, and the coldness of the ice basin was no longer as strong as when she came out. She fanned herself and said, "Don't worry, Madam. We'll be home soon."
Qingzhu and Qingping increased the intensity of their fanning. "I'm not in a hurry. I'm just angry."
Shen Ning also fanned them, "The wind doesn't need to be strong, I'll just fan them."
Life without air conditioning is hard.
She sighed in her heart, "I originally thought that the Lan family was unkind, but I didn't expect that it was the Jia family that was unkind. When my eldest aunt passed away, I'm afraid they were all heartbroken."
When she first entered the Red Mansion, Shen Ning always wanted to break Haoda'er's legs and lock him up in the backyard, but she didn't realize that the person who should be beaten more was Jia Zheng.
Xue Pan was guilty of murder, a case that was confirmed, but they still dared to pull him out. It shows how brave they were.
How come you haven't developed any brains after reading so many books?
No, has he read the Dazhao Law?
"He just used his two nephews to please the Wang family. He is really talented."
Wang Ziteng's heart is bigger than she thought.
I originally thought he was only targeting the Beijing camp, but now it seems that he is eager to take control of all the relationships of the Ning and Rong mansions in the army.
What you can't get is destroyed.
"But... there is no evidence!"
Qingzhu knew that their wives would not let that party off, but the letter that could serve as evidence was gone.
"…The evidence is for the world to see."
Shen Ning slapped herself a few more times, "Sometimes, we don't need evidence against bad guys."
Wang Zisheng dared to jump into the Jia family not only because he relied on his brother, but also because his nephew-in-law Jia Lian was now a doctor in the armory.
Probably because of Jia Lian, the Wang family felt that Wang Ziteng's return to the Beijing camp was a foregone conclusion.
Oh~ they are dreaming! Jia Lian dares to be confused and dares to help. If she can push him up, she can naturally pull him back.
Shen Ning was feeling furious in her heart. Jia Lian, who had finally finished everything, was also taking a carriage back home.
He didn't sleep the whole night. The Arsenal was not only responsible for military equipment, but also for food, clothing, etc. There were so many accounts in each place. If he hadn't transferred people from the Ministry of Revenue, it might take him several months to sort them out.
Now it's okay, he just needs to follow the rules from now on.
"Second Master, I will go home immediately and ask Second Madam to prepare some wine for you. Have a drink and relax before going to sleep."
Wang'er was happy because his master was promising and he would probably be no different.
"No, I'll tell her myself."
Jia Lian didn't know that he was about to enter the center of the storm, and said with a smile: "As for the East Palace, go and invite Master Zhen. I have to thank him, brother."
It's the last day. If you still have tickets, don't waste them. If you don't have tickets, please give me a review.
