Chapter 65: Fight Back (Part 1)
The night at Ningguo Mansion passed peacefully.
Shen Ning's sleep was the same as usual, but what bothered her now was that she didn't get enough sleep.
In the late pregnancy, I had to get up too many times at night.
"Wait for Qingzhu to come back and give her twenty taels of silver."
After breakfast, Shen Ning thought of Qingzhu again and said to Qingping, "Let her send her mother to Huichun Hall and ask Manager Chen to take a look!"
"yes!"
Qingping agreed.
Yesterday she lied that Qingzhu's mother was sick and asked for a day off.
today……
Qingping looked at Jia Rong with some worry as he finished the last mouthful of porridge and was rinsing his mouth.
"grandmother!"
Jia Rong was full and satisfied, and he was sure that his grandmother, who was also full and satisfied, was in a good mood. "Do you think my aunt is impatient and wants to come out to see us earlier?"
"nonsense."
Premature babies will have some physical deficiencies, and the medical technology in ancient times was not good enough. Shen Ning didn't want to give birth prematurely. "How can you tell that we are impatient? If you dare to make up stories about your aunt, be careful that she will pull your beard and ears when you celebrate your 50th birthday."
Jia Rong: “…”
He was shocked by the scene his grandmother described.
You know what, it's really possible.
My aunt is more than ten years younger than him.
"Grandma~"
Jia Rong hurried over to comfort her, "You can't teach your aunt carelessly."
"Are you scared now?"
“Puff~”
“Hahaha~”
I don't know which maid started laughing, but everyone in the room started laughing at once.
"Oh, I'm horrible."
Jia Rong couldn't help laughing, "Grandma, let's go sit over there in the rocking chair. I'll massage your legs and tell you something fun."
Shen Ning looked at the half-lying rocking chair, and stole a glance outside the door to make sure that the two midwives were not there. As expected, she went over with great excitement, "Tell me, if it's not fun..., then do five somersaults on the spot."
"Haha, I can do seven backflips in a row now."
Jia Rong was proud of his progress to his grandmother while massaging her legs. "Grandma, let's talk about a hypothesis first. If you like it, I'll translate it for you now."
"Okay!"
If her grandson wanted to tease her, then she could do it! After a period of companionship, Shen Ning really fell in love with Jia Rong.
"If Wengpo Zhong and Wengpo Liu weren't here, would you be so excited that you would give birth to your aunt right away?"
"Am I crazy?"
Shen Ning smiled at him and said, "This assumption is simply impossible."
The rocking chair was so comfortable that she wanted to take another nap. "Your aunt is going to rely on me for a few more days." At this point, she suddenly thought of something. "By the way, why haven't they come yet? Is Jia Yan's delivery not going smoothly?"
"No."
Jia Rong said, "When I came back yesterday, I heard that sister had given birth to a son, and now the family of three is living with elder brother Kui."
A family of three moving back home?
Shen Ning blinked, "Did your father and his men snatch him back?" After doing such a big thing, they didn't even tell her the good news, "What did the Chen family say? Are they willing to release him?"
"Father asked someone to sue the Chen family, Sister Yan's stepmother-in-law, Mrs. Wang, and the Wang family in the name of Brother Kui."
Huh? That's progress!
Shen Ning was pleasantly surprised. "The Great Zhao Law is worth learning, right? Tell me quickly, how did he file the lawsuit?" Even if the lawsuit was a mess, it was better than him just relying on the power of the Jia family to suppress others. "He hasn't come to tell me the good news yet. Did someone sue him again?"
"...Grandma, why do I feel like you want to see my father make a fool of himself?"
"Ha~, your feeling must be wrong."
Shen Ning smiled, "Can't you see how relieved I am now? It's rare that he doesn't take advantage of his power to bully others. Qingping, tell your grandmother that when he eats at her house in the future, she should add two more dishes to every meal."
"……yes!"
Qingping winked at the little maid who was waiting to serve her, and she bowed quickly and went out with a smile.
However, as soon as I walked out of the yard, I found a lot of people outside.
At this time, Jia Zhen, Youshi and several midwives were actually staying in the back bridal chamber.
Just wait for one bad thing and go right away.
"grandmother!"
Jia Rong didn't expect that his grandmother was relieved that his father did not take advantage of his power to bully others.
But in fact, his father only hated that he had no power to rely on, so that people could bully his family.
"You don't know how excessive the Chen and Wang families are."
Jia Rong said, "Sister Yan was washing Wang's feet and slipped while pouring water. My brother-in-law Chen Tang wanted to find a midwife, but they locked her up in the ancestral hall. The next day, they hired a midwife who was good at delivering animals. When Brother Kui brought people there, they wouldn't let them in. They also... relied on their many relatives to beat them up."
What? Shen Ning sat up slightly, "So your father didn't fight back? He just reported it to the police?"
She couldn't help but get angry.
At this time, as Jia Yan's family, shouldn't they fight back? They can report to the police after they have fought enough!
Even if we don't report it to the authorities, we can use the power of the Jia family to suppress it.
Shen Ning slapped the armrest angrily, "Go, find someone to call that idiot in for me."
"Grandma, I hit you."
Jia Rong said, "Father had them beat our family back in the same way they beat us, and then he asked Xing'er to report it to the authorities, but..."
"Hurry up and tell me."
"My brother-in-law Chen Tang escaped from the ancestral hall and wanted to see Sister Yan, but he was hit on the head and fainted for a long time. He is still dizzy now. Brother Kui is the same. If you hadn't called Shopkeeper Chen, he might have died."
“…”
Shen Ning sat up.
Jia Rong changed from sitting to kneeling. "Mrs. Zhong went in to save people and was hit on the head. So was Mrs. Liu, but Sister Qingzhu blocked it for her. But at that time, father and the others were a step slower, and her right arm was broken."
Coming for her? Shen Ning looked at Qing Ping, "Did you know about it yesterday?"
Qingping also knelt down hurriedly, "Yes! Grandpa and Grandma are worried about you, don't worry, although Granny Liu's arm is broken, she is a good person, and we have already hired a lot of midwives, you..."
"What do you want?"
Shen Ning lay back down, "Am I made of mud?"
There was a hint of murderous intent in her eyes. "Call the master over here. This is not just the work of the Chen and Wang families. Has he found out who is behind this?"
"My son is ashamed!"
Jia Zhen, who had just crouched in front of the window after receiving the news, hurried in and knelt down upon hearing the words, "We haven't found out who is behind this yet. The people from the Chen and Wang families who did this were bitten to death by accident. They didn't specifically target the two midwives."
"…So where are they now?"
"Shuntian Prefecture Prison."
"...There are many accidents in this world," Shen Ning narrowed her eyes, "Since they can cause accidents to the two midwives, it is reasonable for their families to have accidents."
If the Jia family were to be weak at this moment, the tigers and wolves around them, visible and invisible, might immediately pounce on them for a feast.
"Jiao Da has already sent someone to do it."
Jia Zhen said, "Mother, I will not let those people go."
If we can't find the mastermind behind this, then everyone involved in this incident will have a hard time.
Jia Zhen had no choice but to come up with this stupid idea. "I want to let everyone in the capital know that anyone who dares to target my family will have no chance of having a good life if I suspect them."
"…Tell Jiao Da to find a few friends from the Chen and Wang families who have bad reputations, and bully them back in the same way they bully others."
Shen Ning said in a deep voice, "You don't have to finish the work all at once, take your time. Sometimes the mental torment is worse than the physical torment."
