Chapter 512: Welcoming Spring in the Red Mansion (24)

There is only one central idea, which is to hope that Jia Zhen will pay back the silver he owes.

Jia Zhen was naturally unhappy and kept crying poor to Jia She.

"Uncle She, it's not that I don't want to pay it back, it's just that my family is in financial difficulty. I think the Emperor can be a little sympathetic."

Jia She pointed at him angrily, "You, you, you are so stupid!

As for Qin Keqing, others don’t know, but don’t you know either?

You actually dared to provoke her, and finally you were too ashamed to live in this world and let her die of illness. Where did you get the courage from?

You should know that the emperor is still alive and well!"

"Uncle She, you misunderstood. Ke Qing did not hang himself."

"What do you mean!?" Jia She was shocked!

In the dream, Qin Keqing committed suicide because she was too ashamed to face anyone after her affair with her father-in-law was exposed.

But if that's not the case, who did it?

"It's the palace... There's no room for her in the palace!"

After saying this, Jia She was already in tears. He was reluctant to part with Qin Keqing, and was even more frightened by the prospect that Jia She imagined.

Jia She did not ask any more questions, and after a long while he finally said, "Forget it, let's not talk about the past anymore.

But now you should make amends for your sins before the emperor comes to settle the score with you.

Do you really want to push Ningguo Mansion into a dilemma?"

Jia Zhen was so lustful before that he didn't think too much about it. Now that Jia She pointed it out, he came to his senses instantly.

With a thud, he knelt down in front of Jia She and said, "Uncle She, save my nephew!"

"There's no other way now. Go and gather the money first, pay back the money you owe the royal family, and make a good impression on the emperor."

Jia Zhen gritted his teeth and thought for a long time. He knew that it would be fine if he did not pursue the matter of Qin Keqing. If he really did pursue it, he was afraid that the entire Ningguo Mansion would not be enough to pay the compensation.

Now he only hopes that the emperor will let Qin Keqing's matter go unsolved because his teacher has returned the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

So he nodded to Jia She and said, "Uncle She, don't worry, I know what to do!"

Jia She was relieved when he saw that he really understood the seriousness of the matter.

Even though this bastard is a bit of a scoundrel, he is still a family member after all, so I have to help him if I can.

When I returned to the general's mansion, the old lady had already sent Yuanyang to wait at home.

This made Jia She extremely unhappy. The filial piety that his mother believed in only applied to him.

Her face couldn't help but show some emotion, "Excuse me, Miss Yuanyang, thank you for coming. Is there anything the old lady can do for you?"

Yuanyang was blocked by Jia She's sarcastic words and bowed respectfully.

"Master, our old lady would like you to come over and have a chat with Miss Lin."

Jia She already knew what his mother was planning so impatiently.

He nodded seriously, "Please ask Miss Yuanyang to go over and report to the old lady.

The children were exhausted from the long journey and were now washing up.

Tomorrow morning, I will take them to pay their respects to the old lady."

However, the old lady had the dirty idea of having Daiyu live with her, so how could she let them settle down before going there?

Yuanyang refuted Jia She righteously, "Master, the old lady missed Miss Lin. If the servants hadn't stopped her, she would have come here in person."

Finally, Jia She had no choice but to order the maidservant beside him, "Go to the young lady's yard and see if they have slowed down a bit.

If it slows down a bit, then come over and follow me to pay my respects to the old lady."

Shuangshuang and Daiyu had just finished washing up and were lying on the bed to rest for a while. When they heard the news, they couldn't help but frown.

After all, we are two families. There is no need to go and pay respects as soon as you get back. Just wait until you have recovered a little before going.

I'm afraid only the old lady of the Jia family would be so hasty in sending someone to pay respects.

Little Orange said to Shuangshuang indignantly, “That old woman is too much. Who is so impatient that she won’t even give people a break?

Doesn't the book say that when Daiyu first entered the mansion, she was also very fond of him?"

"In the book, Daiyu came right after Jia Min died. Thinking of her recently deceased daughter, she naturally felt a sense of nostalgia.

But Daiyu is already in her teens now, and they have never met each other, so how much affection can there be between them?

What's more, in these years, without Jia She's family pampering her and cleaning up the mess for the second wife, all her love and affection was on her precious baby in the second wife.

Now, I'm afraid that little plot is all that remains for Daiyu."

They both got up to dress Daiyu and comforted her softly.

"Don't worry, the old lady is your real grandmother. She must have missed you, so she couldn't wait to send someone to pick us up."

Daiyu was extremely intelligent and insightful, and Lin Ruhai taught her for several more years.

Although there is still a hint of carefree innocence in his eyes, he is also full of confidence.

It's not like in the original book, where he lives under someone else's roof and is misunderstood as someone asking for money.

The words spoken out of frustration and annoyance are naturally often sarcastic and petty.

Now she is graceful and elegant, with a face that shows the pride and reserve of a noble lady from a marquis's mansion.

In addition, because I am a bit older and have been in charge of the family for a few years, I know everything about my finances and am naturally full of confidence!

He quickly went to the main courtyard, where Jia She and Mrs. Xing were waiting quietly.

As soon as she saw the two people come in, Mrs. Xing, who had originally looked unhappy, immediately smiled.

"Yingchun, Daiyu, you guys are here? Have you rested well?"

At this point, the two naturally replied that they had rested enough.

Mrs. Xing pulled Daiyu aside and said to her with concern, "I have already cleaned up your yard. After you pay your respects to the old lady, you can go back to your room and have a good rest.

When the time comes, take a look yourself and tell your aunt if there's anything missing or not done well, and I'll fix it for you."

Daiyu bowed to Madam Xing and said, "Thank you very much, aunt, for your consideration."

This humble and polite gesture made Mrs. Xing laugh out loud.

"Good boy, good boy, no need to be polite, no need to be polite!"

When she came to the old lady's side, Daiyu saw that the maids and servants in the mansion were all dressed in red and green, and she couldn't help frowning.

Although my son-in-law is gone, there is no reason for my wife's family to observe mourning for him.

But he was a close relative after all. It had been less than three months since he passed away, but there was no sadness at all in the house about the passing of the son-in-law. As a daughter, this was naturally a bit unbearable.

When they arrived at Rongxi Hall, they could hear the sound of laughter coming from inside from afar, which made Daiyu even more unhappy.

I couldn't help but feel suspicious of my grandmother's constant claims that she missed me and my mother.

If you really miss them that much, and get the news that your daughter and son-in-law are both gone, you will at least feel a little sad, even if you don't get a serious illness.

But where is the trace of sadness in these cheerful laughters?
