Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

Chapter 229 Please write something for me! Please give me the official seal too!

"Look at you, let alone what you said, I won't believe anything you write. What should I do?" Mrs. Xing said to Jia She with great regret.

"I swear, I swear,..." Jia She's brain now reacted faster.

He knew that he had fallen into Madam Xing's hands, and it seemed that she wanted Juhong to deal with him.

He had forgotten the name, but now that Madam Xing mentioned it, he remembered it.

It seemed that Juhong's family ran a small clinic. He took a liking to her and gave her father some money to bring her in.

I gave her wealth and glory, and now she is eating and drinking well, so she should be grateful to me.

But now that Mrs. Xing singled him out,

Through understanding Mrs. Xing’s current virtues.

There is a high probability that he turned against us and became Mrs. Xing's pawn.

What an ungrateful thing.

Massage, what kind of massage is this? My legs are broken, they will turn into pieces if you just press them casually.

Just take care of my eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.

I don't take showers or massages.

Jia She’s idea was quite right.

But this also depends on whether Mrs. Xing will give him this opportunity now.

After hearing Jia She's oath, Mrs. Xing shook her head again.

"What oath can you swear? Even if the heavens strike you with lightning, your father dies and your mother remarries, you will still have no descendants."

"None of this can harm you. I'm just too kind and can't bear to see unrelated people get implicated."

"Why,……"

"I can't help it. Who made you so dishonest?"

"How about this, even though it's useless to write it here, write a copy anyway!"

“Is something better than nothing?”

"Then give me the official and private seals for safekeeping. What do you think, Master?"

Jia She opened his eyes wide, this old witch is about to make a big fuss.

Dare to use a man’s official and private seal.

Madam Xing also looked at him helplessly, "Master, please don't look at me like that. You have to understand me. I have no choice."

"I believe what some people say."

"As for you, even if you gave me your official and private seals, neither of them are safe, because you can still move them."

"The mouth can still speak."

"But I am too kind-hearted to see someone's tongue being cut off or someone becoming paralyzed or something like that."

……

Mrs. Xing lowered her head and thought about various possibilities, while Jia She trembled as she described his miserable situation.

This vicious woman, Confucius was right when he said, only women and villains are difficult to raise.

I have treated you well, provided you with fine clothes, delicious food, wealth and honor, but you have never thought of anything in return, and all you think about every day is how to torture me.

But what now?

Qiu Tong was watching with eager eyes, and Ju Hong was sharpening her knife. Mrs. Xing could come up with a vicious plan as soon as she turned her eyes.

Jia She was very sensible and compromised.

"I agree. How do you say I should write it? I can't write lying down like this."

"Don't be afraid, I'll have someone help you sit down."

"I'll set up a kang table for you."

"I'll arrange it right away. Qiu Tong, prepare the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone, and have someone fetch the master's official and private seals."

Qiu Tong responded and looked at Madam Xing with great admiration.

This woman suddenly attracted people's attention. She must be possessed by an evil spirit.

I was busy and happy to make arrangements.

Mrs. Xing was still trying to comfort Jia She, "Master, you should be content with being so obedient."

"I will also provide you with fine clothes and delicious food."

"I'll have someone serve you rice later."

Having said this, Mrs. Xing stroked her clothes and patted them twice, as if there was some dust on them that was being brushed off.

I have to wear brighter clothes in the future. It’s so good now. I’m not a widow, but I’m better than a widow. I hold power and walk with style.

If Jia She doesn't behave himself, he will let those people in the backyard who hate him very much take action. As long as he doesn't die, he will still be the master.

For a first-rank general like Jia She, there is no need for a specific person.

Being active and jumping around can easily cause trouble.

Mrs. Xing felt that everything was moving towards perfection.

……

On the other side, as soon as Jia Min stepped into Jia Mu's door, she was stopped by Yuanyang.

"Auntie, the old lady has ordered that no one is allowed to disturb us." Yuanyang said in a firm tone.

Jia Min felt calm in her heart and thought, even if we met, what could she say?

She said calmly: "Yuanyang, I'm here to say goodbye. I seem to have caused a lot of trouble by being here."

She paused and said, "Besides, living in the Grand View Garden now is quite inconvenient."

Yuanyang hesitated for a moment and said, "Madam, wait a moment. I will go and inform you right away."

After saying that, she turned and went inside.

Soon, the mandarin ducks appeared again.

"Aunt, the old lady said you can do as you please, but the Lin family needs the head mistress to preside over it."

She relayed what Grandmother Jia said,

"But Miss Lin can stay in the garden for a few more days. The old lady likes her very much."

If it weren't for Mrs. Xing's previous reminder, Jia Min might have felt relieved that her mother loved Daiyu.

However, at this moment, she felt a barrier in her heart and was unwilling to leave her daughter in a place full of rumors.

So, she resolutely refused: "Please tell my mother, Miss Yuanyang, that I need to take Daiyu back with me as well." She explained,

"After the New Year, Yong'an will go for the exam. The siblings need to discuss more about the exam and should not stay for long."

Yuanyang's face changed. This reason was so fake.

She took a peek and saw that Jia Min's expression did not change. She looked as if it was a matter of course.

Yuanyang had no choice but to go inside again to report.

Soon, Yuanyang told Jia Min in surprise,

"The old lady asked you to go in and talk."

Jia Min was stunned. Why was he allowed in again?

Wondering, she followed Yuanyang into Lady Jia's room.

The candlelight flickered. Grandmother Jia sat leaning on the bed, holding the corners of the quilt with her hands, her eyes slightly closed, and she seemed to hear footsteps coming in.

She opened her eyes.

"Just now you said Yongan is going to take another imperial examination?"

Jia Min nodded, "Yes, mother."

"Are you sure this time?" asked Grandmother Jia as if she didn't care.

Jia Min shook her head. "Mom, I don't know about this. This was decided by my husband and the children's teachers."

"How can a woman like my daughter know all this?"

Grandmother Jia smiled slightly, "Min'er, you have also learned to lie. You are a woman and others don't know it."

"Then Daiyu will understand because she is a girl?"

"You don't want your daughter to accompany me, an old woman."

"Why tell a lie?"

Jia Min quickly waved her hands and shook her head, "Mom, no, I didn't lie to you."

"Daiyu is different from my daughter."

"She never liked things from her daughter's house."

"I like scientific research articles and those that are full of literary talent."

"Xianggong and Yongan are also willing to talk to her about this."

"My husband once said that Daiyu seemed to be born with the ability to take exams."

When Grandmother Jia heard this, her eyes lit up. "Very good, if what you said is true, then your daughter is very good."

"If there is any success in the Yong'an exam this time, let Baoyu go to the Lin family to study!"

"You have seen Baoyu from your second brother's family. He is quite smart."

"It's just that the teacher of the Jia family is a bit pedantic and can't teach well."

"I heard that his friend Qin Zhong is also doing well in the Lin family."

"Since you can accept Qin Zhong, there is no reason not to accept your own nephew, right?"
