Chapter 381 His revenge is coming soon.
Chapter 381 His revenge is coming soon.
Jia's mother, leaning on her cane, hurried forward to greet them.
"Look at you! Why did you come here in person when you are so busy?"
Concubine Nan'an said in a heavy tone, "No matter how busy I am, I have to come to my elder brother's funeral!"
"What's wrong? Am I here at the wrong time?"
Seeing that Concubine Nan'an wanted to blame her, Grandmother Jia hurriedly explained.
"No, no, I never thought you would come. It's a great honor for my humble home."
"You also know that our family is now..."
Having said this, it seemed like she was getting sad, and Grandmother Jia wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Concubine Nan'an raised her leg disapprovingly and followed him inside.
"Where's Jia Min?"
"Where is she? Take me to her."
While talking, he complained.
"Jia Min is just too polite. She didn't even bother to inform me of such a big thing."
"If I hadn't asked someone, I wouldn't know!"
"You guys didn't organize this funeral very well."
"Not worthy of Brother Jing."
The Jia family apologized and led the way.
"Yes... yes... yes! We are improving it."
"Please come this way. My aunt is in the mourning hall!"
As he spoke, he ordered people, "Hurry up and guard the door."
"Decorate the mourning hall."
Jia Lian was giving orders while complaining in his heart.
Oh! Brother Zhen is not here either, how should we decorate the place?
There is only one painting.
Who knew that the Concubine Nan'an would come?
No one is needed in the palace anymore?
Jia's mother, Wang Fu-ren and others who followed behind him also looked helpless.
The Nan'an Concubine has always been domineering and won't listen to anyone.
I can't avoid a lecture today.
But when they arrived at the mourning hall, Concubine Nan'an stopped talking.
She looked around, shook her head, smacked her lips, and cried twice looking at the portrait.
Then he walked up to Jia Min, lowered his head and said,
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming? I had to look for you everywhere."
Jia Min lowered her head and wiped her tears. She just listened and said nothing, because she was afraid that the more she responded, the more some people would talk.
I only heard Nan'an Concubine continue to say,
"I asked around and found out that Brother Jing was gone."
"Come over here quickly to give you face."
Jia Min looked at her in surprise and thought, when did our relationship reach the point where we needed to report it to you?
But she always had a soft face and an even softer heart.
She didn't refute.
He just said, "It happened so suddenly that I didn't have time to say anything."
Concubine Nan'an smiled knowingly.
He continued in a low voice,
"I came here to tell you,"
"You helped me raise my son, and I will help Brother Jing get revenge."
"We owe nothing to each other."
Jia Min raised her head with red and swollen eyes, looking at the face of Concubine Nan'an, but she could never see the depths of it.
Understood,
It’s not that they have a good relationship, it’s that she doesn’t want to owe anyone a favor.
Just one sentence and several years of favors will be enough.
It's better this way. We can all live in peace in the future. Everyone can go their own way. Right now, I and the Concubine Nan'an really can't agree on anything.
Thinking of this, Jia Min didn't hesitate and said directly, "After so many years, most people have died."
"Whether you want revenge or not, what's the point?"
"The superiors take advantage of others, while the inferiors ..."
At this point, Jia Min looked at Jia Jing's portrait.
I felt sad again.
The handkerchief is a little wet.
Although she didn't know the cause of Jia Jing's death, she knew that Jia Jing died at this critical juncture.
Or they become discouraged and give up on their own.
Or they were forced.
It must not be a natural death.
I only heard Concubine Nan'an say word by word, "Of course it has meaning."
"Killing someone means paying with one's life. This has been the practice since ancient times."
"Don't worry about it, leave it to me."
"I will take care of it in the Nan'an Palace."
Jia Min continued to keep her head down and remained silent, her mourning scarf almost hanging to the ground.
In fact, she knew the temperament of Concubine Nan'an. This person came here today not to ask for her opinion.
But I'm here to inform you.
As long as she has decided, she will do it whether she agrees or not.
Sure enough, Concubine Nan'an said again, "Then it's settled."
"Just wait for my good news!"
"No one in this world can do whatever they want."
After saying this, she turned her head and glanced at Lin Daiyu.
There was a hint of amusement in his eyes.
The root of the royal family?
Then he raised his mouth and said to the Jia family members who were still outside,
"Come in!"
"Tsk tsk... this is really unfair to Brother Jing."
"I didn't expect that once the plaque of the Duke's Mansion was removed, all the dignity and prestige would be gone."
"The true form is revealed, well picked!"
After saying that, Concubine Nan'an lifted her leg and left.
Leaving a room full of depression.
How could this invisible and shapeless Concubine Nan'an remain so rampant?
She was crazy about her dead husband, crazy about closing the door to visitors, and crazy about hiding from people after her son was killed.
Mrs. Wang, who was standing behind her, looked at the woman's back.
How long can you be crazy?
Then they stepped into the mourning hall.
……
First, I shed a few tears in front of Jia Jing's portrait.
Then everyone looked at Jia Min, questioning and angry.
"Min'er, what did the Concubine Nan'an say when she came over?" Grandmother Jia saw that Jia Min's expression remained indifferent.
When he saw me, he just returned the greeting briefly, as if he was unwilling to socialize.
Hearing Lady Jia's question, Jia Min raised her head slightly and looked at everyone in the room, including Lady Jia, Madam Wang, Madam Xing, and Mrs. You, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, all of whom were looking at her expectantly.
They are all waiting for me to say something.
But what’s the point of telling them what Concubine Nan’an said?
So she shook her head and said to Lady Jia in a hoarse voice,
"Mother, she just came to see my eldest cousin."
A cold light flashed across Mrs. Wang's eyes.
I thought to myself, Jia Min, you can't even tell a lie.
How could the Concubine Nan'an be such a person? Even if her own relatives died, let alone Jia Jing, she would not necessarily be so sentimental.
But he didn't say it out loud.
Grandmother Jia's eyes also flickered a few times.
It seems that this child has indeed become alienated from me.
There is not a single truth left.
Lin Daiyu was next to Jia Min, so she was able to hear the general idea of what was said intermittently.
There seems to be a story here.
Love, hate, and grudges among wealthy families.
As expected, the confiscation of the Jia family's property in the book had its reasons.
Was it Jia Jing or Yuanchun who caused the Jia family to be broken up in the end?
You have to look carefully yourself.
……
Mrs. Wang, Lady Jia and others also found a place and sat down to guard it.
In theory, Lady Jia is an elder, so there is no need to keep her around.
However, since there was disunity, and it happened right in front of the coffin, no one was in the mood to argue or able to give in.
The flame of the eternal lamp flickered, as if everyone was eager to try it out.
……
At this moment, another urgent report came from outside.
"Old lady, first lady, second lady,"
"Go out and greet them quickly,"
"The Prince of Beijing's Mansion has sent a sacrificial gift,"
……
"Mr. Lian sent someone to call Mrs. Lian.
"With these two royal palaces coming forward, people from other families will come one after another."
"Madams, please keep someone at the second gate for now!"
"The eldest master and the second master have also gone to the door."
Hearing this, Madam Xing and Madam Wang looked at Jia Min fiercely.
How could these people act on hearing the news?
Who are you targeting?
Could it be Jia Jing who has been hiding in the Taoist temple for many years?
Grandmother Jia immediately stood up and was about to walk out with her cane.
Just took two steps,
She turned her head and looked at Jia Min.
"Min Er, are you going out?"
