Chapter 331 Reputation
Fu Lai Restaurant.
Wang Zisheng, who was drinking with his friends, watched the hustle and bustle at the city gate from afar and couldn't help but sneer.
"Adding joy? Isn't this just making things worse?"
One day and one night is extremely normal for a man, but for a woman... her reputation has long been ruined.
"Shen is doing this, thinking we are all fools?"
He was about to say something else when there was a loud bang and a wine glass fell not far from his feet.
"Uh~who?"
Wang Zisheng burped and turned back quickly.
"Uncle Wang, how are you?"
Liu Xianglian smiled and cupped his hands, "Be a man and be generous. Uncle Wang is not at home, so you'd better be careful not to be beaten at home."
“…So it’s you.”
Grandson of Duke Liguo Liu Biao.
Wang Zisheng didn't notice him at first. "Huh~, they can do it, so why can't I say it? He didn't come back for a whole day and night, and everyone said... wuwu, wuwuwu..."
"Hey, he's drunk."
Peng Huang, the third son of the Xiangyang Marquis family, quickly covered Wang Zisheng's mouth.
"Yes, yes, yes, he's drunk, we'll send him back now."
A group of second-generation rich people who relied on their fathers and brothers were busy pulling Wang Zisheng away.
If it were another woman, not coming home for a day and a night would be a shame for her reputation, but Shen...
Is it possible that the most fierce woman in Dazhao, who is so angry that she can beat the princess at the birthday banquet of the retired emperor, is the kind of person who can compromise with the Japanese pirates? Stop joking.
The reason why the Jia family was able to fight against the Japanese was mainly because Madam Shen fought against the Japanese first.
In addition, Jia Jing's death was also related to the Japanese pirates. With Mrs. Shen's personality, she couldn't beat them, so she had to bite off a piece of the Japanese pirates' flesh even if she had to bite with her teeth.
If anyone dares to say that Mrs. Shen's reputation is damaged in this matter, Jia Zhen will definitely fight with him.
The Wang family and the Jia family are not on good terms, and they can’t control what Wang Zisheng says about Madam Shen at home. However, in front of them..., if things go wrong, Jia Zhen will attack the Wang family and then their family!
What was originally a happy drinking party ended in unhappiness because of a few words.
When Wang Zisheng got home, he was so angry that he smashed everything.
A bunch of spineless bastards.
It's a pity that his brother hasn't come back yet, otherwise...
The main reason why Wang Zisheng dared to confront the Jia family again was because Wang Ziteng had won a great victory in Annan and would be returning to the court soon.
Their Wang family is about to rise again.
Wang Zisheng did not want to miss this great opportunity. He thought about it over and over again in the room and finally asked the servant to deliver a letter to Aunt Xue.
…
In Ningguo Mansion, the courtyard that had been noisy for half a day finally quieted down. Shen Ning finally asked about the details of the collusion between Lai Ma and the Japanese.
Yu Shi knew the most about this matter.
She followed through the entire process.
Hearing that there was always a woman among the people accompanying Nanny Lai, Shen Ning couldn't help but frown.
"Mother, before that woman went to find Madam Lai, she actually...actually she also went to find some other people in the back street."
Some other people?
Seeing Youshi's hesitation, Shen Ning strangely understood, "A man from the Jia family?"
"……yes!"
Youshi lowered her head even lower.
“…Okay, okay!”
Shen Ning laughed angrily, "Someone, call Xing'er."
She suspected that this woman was the one in control.
Xing'er came over, and soon he brought a group of people and went straight to Jin Muchuan.
His mission was simple, to assist Lord Jin and find all the Japanese, especially the female Japanese.
In Shen Ning's opinion, the men of the Jia family were there and she could deal with them at any time if she wanted to, but if she let that Japanese woman run away, she would never have peace in the future.
She was worried about Nami Kuroiwa at home, and wasn't Nami Kuroiwa also gritting her teeth?
Ahhh, if time could go back, she would not only break Shen's legs, but also drink her blood and eat her flesh.
She didn't know how the soldiers found this place.
When she saw it from a distance, she was very alert and took all possible measures to run away.
But she ran away, and Nagayama Takao and others were not so lucky.
They wanted to create opportunities for each other, but they had not rested for a day and a night, and had been looking for someone for most of the day, so they were already exhausted.
I can't even run if I want to.
When Xing'er came over, Jin Muchuan was still searching for Kuroiwa Nami.
"This woman is not simple. These Japanese people all follow her lead."
Jin Muchuan had interrogated those people separately. "If her gender wasn't obvious and she had been exposed to everyone, they would never admit to her even if they died."
"So now she is..."
"She went into the mountains." Jin Muchuan said, "My people saw her from a distance but didn't catch up. Her martial arts skills must be quite good."
Although there are many officers and soldiers, trying to find someone who knows martial arts in the mountains is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that he has legs.
If you can go into the mountains, you can get out.
They entered the mountain from this side and went down from the other side. Even if they searched the entire forest thoroughly, they would not be able to find it.
"We will do our best to capture him, but the people in the mansion... should also pay attention."
"Okay!" Xing'er said helplessly, "I'll go report to my wife."
"Don't worry, I'm still interrogating those Japanese here."
Jin Muchuan said, "The identity of that woman might be a little strange. The man called Changshan Jingfu stopped talking halfway. Wait for me for a while. After I pry open his mouth, it will be the same if you go back."
He always does things promptly and efficiently.
These Japanese are going to die anyway, so it doesn't matter if they die early.
All those who were caught had one leg broken.
Like Haru Yamashita at the beginning, he even had both legs broken.
"By the way, when you came here, did you see the body I ordered to be sent back?"
“Yes.”
Xing'er bowed deeply, "Your Excellency is more thoughtful than we thought."
The wife had been away for a day and a night. Although no one dared to say that her reputation was damaged in front of her, some people would still grumble in their hearts.
“Hahaha, this is Mrs. Shen’s own ability!”
A smile flashed in Jin Muchuan's eyes.
While they were talking here, Nagayama Takao, who had a piece of his flesh cut off, was shaking with pain on the other side. He could no longer bear it and spilled all the beans, revealing everything about Kuroiwa Nami's identity.
Xing'er didn't expect that this man had also fabricated the Xuzhou assassination case.
After getting the confession, he ran back without stopping.
At this time, Kuroiwa Nami didn't know that her identity had been exposed.
She went up the mountain, ran fast on the mountain for half a day, and then quickly went down the mountain.
Of course, as she was familiar with the terrain, the place she went down the mountain not only avoided the soldiers, but also brought her closer to the capital.
Since the officers and soldiers dared to search them so unscrupulously, it was very likely that Shen had gone back again.
She couldn't swallow this.
Even though she knew that even if she went to Beijing now, she would not be able to do anything to the Shen family who were protected by many levels, she just couldn't swallow this and had to go and take a look.
Nami Kuroiwa also wanted to find Nanny Lai. That old woman had lived in that mansion all her life and had many connections that she could use.
When she arrived at the capital in one breath, it was past curfew and the city gates had been closed. However, not far from the city gates, Fukuyama Shunji's head was hung high on a wooden pole, as if he was looking down at her.
Kuroiwa Nami's legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground.
She tried to hold on and left quietly.
But the next morning, after a short nap, she came to queue up to enter the city again.
It was not until this time that Kuroiwa Nami realized how big a fuss Shen's return to the capital had caused.
Do you still dare to give people wedding money? Bastard, is this a blatant provocation to her? Kuroiwa Nami's silver teeth were almost broken.
She hurried to where Nanny Lai lived, but before she got there, she saw the government seal.
Nami Kuroiwa was startled and hurriedly pretended to be passing by.
…
At Ningguo Mansion, after a good night's sleep, Jia Zhen's first thing to do was to gather the male relatives of the Jia family in the back street into the ancestral hall.
After a while, the sound of ghosts howling came from inside.
The clan rules were there. No matter if they had an affair with Kuroiwa Nami or visited the flower cellar, not only would they be beaten, they would also have to kneel in the ancestral hall and copy the clan rules thirty times.
If you have finished copying, you can leave. If you cannot finish copying, then just stay in there and enjoy the sweet meal while recalling the past!
The women in the back streets were extremely happy.
Lately, they are raising their heads.
But the men were also secretly thinking of their own ways.
The competition between them is both overt and covert.
It’s not easy to just get evidence against a man.
Unexpectedly, the tribe leader found for them what they didn't find.
Although they may not necessarily behave themselves after being beaten and asked to copy clan rules, they will always be quiet for a while after being punished.
This is the time they want.
After all, since the family rules were revised, the family's finances have been more abundant than in previous years.
While they are not at home, seize all the financial power. If they have any evil intentions in the future, it will be difficult to deal with them without money.
As expected, I have to learn from the eldest wife.
If you want to control a man, you have to seize his money.
Not to mention the respect for the master back then, it was Jia Zhen!
It turns out that it is also lawless.
But what about now? No money!
He can only eat at home.
Even if he wanted to spend it, he couldn't.
A group of women are trying hard to manage men's money and want to take out all their private savings.
On Shen Ning's side, Jia Mu was welcomed.
The old lady came to apologize.
So, I didn't let anyone accompany me.
"Madame Lai's matter..."
It was very difficult for Grandmother Jia to say this, especially after seeing the purple slap marks on her face, "It's Auntie who is sorry for you."
Shen Ning: “…”
She didn't say it's none of your business.
It was this old lady who had protected Nanny Lai.
This time, she was lucky.
Since entering the Red Mansion, she has never done anything to let the old lady down.
Even because of the 1987 version of A Dream of Red Mansions, she still has a certain filter for this old lady.
She thought of her kindness and partiality towards Daiyu, and how she had allowed a group of girls to live a peaceful life for several years.
But isn't this the old lady's job?
In this place where filial piety is as important as the sky, she can obviously control her two sons.
But she doesn't care.
She still doted on Baoyu blindly, and with a fluke mentality, placed all her hopes on Yuanchun.
Because of Yuanchun, she turned a blind eye to Wang's harsh treatment of Daiyu.
So in the end, she had to give up her granddaughter who had no one but her.
Shen Ning sighed softly, “Aunt, do you know what I was thinking about when I woke up in a strange cellar?”
Grandmother Jia: “…”
Her lips trembled and she was unable to speak.
"I was thinking, if I die, what will happen to my daughter? She is so young."
Shen Ning looked at the old lady, "Aunt, you know that Nanny Lai hates me, and you want to keep her because of the relationship between master and servant. I didn't say anything, but, there are so many ways, why do you still call her home so often?
By calling them home like this, you will appear tolerant and you will show that you treat the elderly well, right? ”
Grandmother Jia: “…”
She couldn't utter a word to refute.
"Has it never occurred to you that Madam Lai hates you, too?"
Chen Ning looked at her, "When he was confiscating everyone, did his things come to my house? No? They were shipped to Rongguo Mansion, and now they are all under the names of your children and grandchildren. Do you think that the little things you gave can earn her lifelong loyalty? If you were her, wouldn't you feel a little uncomfortable?"
Grandmother Jia: “…”
Her tears fell.
"There's no rope or ladder in the cellar. I can't climb up."
Shen Ning said: "Do you know how desperate I was at that time? I killed someone and I climbed up on his body. Do you know how scared I was? At night, a group of them pretended to be ghosts and I hid in the woods. Do you know how much effort I put in to overcome my fear and prepare to see ghosts?"
"It's all my aunt's fault!"
Grandmother Jia grabbed her hand and said in a tearful voice, "Ning'er, why don't you just hit your aunt a few times."
"Aunt, you are making things difficult for me again."
Of course Shen Ning couldn't hit her, "Please let me take it easy for a few days, then come and talk to me, okay? I want to watch Yue Er grow up."
“…I’m leaving, I’m leaving!”
Now that things have come to this, what else can Grandmother Jia say?
They both want to save face.
"Aunt will come to see you again in a few days."
She staggered out, and Yuanyang and others hurriedly supported her.
The eldest wife hadn't been sent out, so they still had something unclear in their hearts.
Several people hurriedly helped the old lady back.
When the old lady returned home, she fell ill again.
Jia Min, Wang Xifeng and others were all helpless about this.
If it were any one of them, let alone forgiveness, they wouldn't even have the chance to hear an apology and would have died outside.
"Mom, let's see later."
Jia Min could only console her, "Be nicer to your sister-in-law in the future. She will definitely not reject you."
“…”
Grandmother Jia sighed deeply, "Min'er, don't you blame your mother?"
“…You don’t want this to happen either.”
Jia Min sighed in her heart, "If it is useful to blame you, I will definitely blame you."
Her mother is old, but she is still unwilling to give up her power.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to arrange a wife named Xing for my eldest brother.
"We will learn from our mistakes and stop doing things that we shouldn't do. You should also let go of things that you should let go of. The housekeeper is Feng girl. If she is not good, her mother-in-law will take care of her. You should just be at ease and be your old lord."
It’s not like my eldest brother is unfilial.
Besides, there is her.
Sometimes, Jia Min didn't understand her mother. "Zhu'er and the others are getting older. Don't keep thinking about how they are not having a good life. When the family was divided, the second branch didn't suffer any loss. You are always thinking about them. What do you think Lian'er will think? You should learn a lesson from the way your elder and second brothers behaved."
