Quick Wear: I've never been a good person

Chapter 509: Welcoming Spring in the Red Mansion (21)

Now seeing Wang Shanbao's incredulous look, he awkwardly picked up the teacup and took a sip before continuing.

"Go and get the five taels of silver reward yourself. I was too harsh on you before.

We are both servants, but you are so much worse than the others."

Wang Shanbao smiled and thanked her. Mrs. Xing might be stingy with money, but she was not bad to the people around her.

"Madam, I will go back and arrange for my eldest son to go to Jinling."

Wang Shanbao's eldest son had not returned yet, and in the middle of the night, people from the Lin Mansion in Yangzhou banged on the door of the First-Class General's Mansion.

Jia She was being affectionate with his concubine, but was interrupted by Wang Shanbao.

He was furious, but before he could vent his anger, Wang Shanbao quickly whispered.

"Master, someone has been sent from Yangzhou's Lin Guye!"

Jia She was shocked in an instant. In his dream, it was indeed the time when Lin Ruhai would pass away.

He couldn't help but frown. The last time Jia Min passed away, he had clearly reminded Lin Ruhai to check his health regularly and to add two more doctors to the mansion on the grounds of caring about his health. Why did it fail again?

I also blame myself for forgetting such an important thing during this period of time while preparing to avoid the emperor's confiscation of my property in the future.

He lifted the concubine up and quickly got up and dressed.

As soon as they arrived at the flower hall, they saw Lin Ruhai's long-time attendant standing in front of the hall wiping tears.

Seeing Jia She at this moment, he bowed down and said, "Uncle, my master... I'm afraid he won't make it!"

Jia She understood what happened in his dream, but his face was full of shock.

"What? How could this happen? Have you asked a doctor to take a good look?"

The visitor's face was filled with sorrow. "To answer my uncle's question, we've invited doctors not only from Yangzhou but also from Jinling to come over and see him.

But the doctors all said... there was really nothing they could do."

Jia She's eyes instantly turned red, his face full of nostalgia, and he nodded to the visitor.

"Go down and wash up first, and come back later."

After the others left, Jia She told Ah Chun, "Go and wake up the mistress and the young masters and girls."

Everyone came very quickly, and Jia She rarely gathered everyone together to talk.

Since they invited someone over so solemnly in the middle of the night, there must be something important.

Jia Lian waited until everyone was present before he started asking.

"I wonder if the master has any instructions for us to come here?"

Jia She spoke without reservation and went straight to the point.

"Someone just came from Yangzhou and said that your uncle is not feeling well.

I plan to take Yingchun and Jia Cong with me, and leave the house to you two."

After saying that, he looked at Wang Xifeng again.

"Daughter-in-law, your child is hard-earned. I hope you will treat him as the most important thing. It's best not to care about other things. Just don't meddle in other people's business, okay?"

Jia She knew that Qin Keqing and Lin Ruhai died on the same day.

Wang Xifeng was so exhausted from arranging Qin Keqing's funeral that she gave birth to her child.

Although Wang Xifeng's belly is bigger now than before, who knows if they will push the matter to her again.

Wang Xifeng radiated the radiance of maternal love. She gently stroked her belly and made promises to Jia She.

"Don't worry, sir.

I'm already so pregnant, I definitely won't join in any fun."

Jia She nodded and looked at Jia Lian to continue his explanation.

"Brother Lian, as a husband and a father, you must not be careless. You must take good care of your wife and make sure no one bumps into her."

Jia Lian bowed solemnly to Jia She and said, "Don't worry, my son will take care of it."

Jia She looked at Mrs. Xing again and said, "Take good care of Brother Lian's wife. I will do what I promised you when I come back from Yangzhou."

Mrs. Xing's face was immediately filled with joy. She had thought that Jia She was unwilling to give her respect since there had been no movement for such a long time.

Now that he had gotten the OK, he nodded immediately and started pounding garlic.

"Master, don't worry, I will definitely protect Brother Lian's wife!"

Finally, Jia She said to Shuangshuang and Jia Cong, "Your uncle is in trouble. I must go there. As the younger generation, you two should also come with me."

"Yes, sir!"

Jia She waved to everyone and said, "Everyone go and prepare."

Then he went to Lady Jia in person and told her about the matter.

When Lady Jia heard that the person who brought the news did not go to Rongguo Mansion but went directly to Jia She, she was naturally unhappy.

This means that he would rather believe Jia She as his brother-in-law than her as his mother-in-law.

Especially after Jia Min, she wrote to Lin Ruhai again to mention the matter of Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu, but was rejected by Lin Ruhai every time.

In recent years, the relationship between the two is naturally not as close as when Jia Min was around.

Even during the holidays, there was only a simple gift and a short greeting letter.

Now that she heard that Lin Ruhai was about to die, Grandmother Jia was actually more happy than sad.

His eyes moved slightly, and he quickly came up with a plan.

She wiped away her non-existent tears with a handkerchief and said to Jia She.

"In that case, should I bring my poor granddaughter back to the mansion to be raised?

As a grandmother, I definitely have the responsibility to take on this responsibility."

Jia She didn't nod, but only said, "It depends on what my brother-in-law is planning."

"What are the plans? He doesn't have many relatives there, and as his only family, we naturally have to share his worries.

You can take Daiyu back and let the old woman raise her."

Jia She looked at the excitement and calculation in Jia Mu's eyes, and felt a chill in his heart.

In the dream, I was in a daze, and my mother had schemed against me to the point that I lost my title and my family was destroyed.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Lady Jia had no other intention except to bring Daiyu back, she said goodbye and left.

"Madam, I'm going to Yangzhou now. I still have a lot of things to prepare, so I'll take my leave now.

I won't come to resign tomorrow, please forgive me."

Naturally, Lady Jia is very good at putting on a good show.

With a kind face, he nodded towards Jia She and said, "Go ahead, go ahead. There's no need to ask for leave. We're all family. There's no need for so much formality."

In order to hurry up, the father and his two sons did not take a boat, but took a horse carriage directly.

They rode at full speed all the way and arrived in Yangzhou in less than twenty days.

He hurried to the Salt Inspectorate's Mansion. Before he even got off the car, a servant came to greet him hurriedly, and a doorman rushed inside to report.

As soon as I entered the second gate, Lin Zhong ran over in a hurry.

Without even having time to salute Jia She, he grabbed his wrist and said.

"Uncle, hurry up, our master wants to see you!"
