Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

Chapter 217: Half of the Monthly Salary Will Be Deducted, If You Can’t Do It, Get Out

"Madam, the doctor is here!" Wang Shanbao's voice came from outside the door, breaking the tense atmosphere in the room.

Jia She was so anxious that his mouth was bubbling, and he shouted, "Come in quickly, please!"

Mrs. Xing was not in a hurry, her voice was soothing and powerful, "Ask the doctor to wait a moment, the master hasn't put on his clothes yet!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Shanbao, who was outside the door, fell silent and dared not say anything more.

The aunts and maids in the room looked at Jia She struggling to stand up, their eyes wide open in shock.

Jia She was so angry that his beard trembled, and he slapped the edge of the bed and roared,

"You are talking nonsense, you are just making up lies."

"Do you believe that I can still defeat you with one punch even if I'm injured?"

Mrs. Xing pretended to be frightened and took two steps back.

"Master! I believe it. I'm so scared. I'm going out!"

"What do you say I should do? I get scared when I hear your voice."

Mrs. Xing looked at Jia She's distorted face with a bitter face.

Then he turned to the concubines and maids and said,

"All of you should get out now. You are all so delicate and fragile. If I beat you, you will regret it and blame me later."

After hearing Mrs. Xing's sensible and righteous words, everyone dared not move.

But Mrs. Xing walked out.

Without a hostess, who would dare to step forward to treat Jia She?

Jia She was so angry that he rushed out, his legs dragging and he almost fell to the ground.

Mrs. Xing looked at him with a half-smile, as if she was looking at a poor creature.

Jia She was completely confused. When did this woman become so cruel? He regretted it deeply. If he had known this, he should have abolished her long ago.

Is it still her turn to be the hostess?

I never expected this, this is a deliberate attempt to torture me to death!

I can't let him have his way.

I can only recover quickly. As for women, you can have them again in the future. Your body is your own. If it’s damaged, it’s gone.

He gave orders to the concubines and maids in the rooms on both sides.

"You all listen to the lady."

"Pay half of the monthly salary to the lady."

When Jia She saw these people looking at him with resentment,

Jia She endured and endured,

"Wait for me later and I'll make it up to you."

"Double compensation!"

Jia She's voice doubled in volume when he spoke this, before the concubines and maids could react.

The voice of Wang Shanbao's family came from outside again.

"Madam! Second Master Lian, Young Master Cong and the Second Miss are here."

"I heard that the master is not well again, so I came to see him!"

Mrs. Xing did not wait for Jia She to reflect on the words of the unfilial sons, and raised her head and said,

"Wait a moment, until their father has finished cleaning up."

"Filial piety is not something that can be rushed."

It suddenly became quiet outside. Jia She was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He knew in his heart that Mrs. Xing was waiting for an opportunity to take revenge and isolate him.

But as the head of the mansion, he couldn't lose his composure, and he couldn't let his sons see him in such a state.

Concubines have no status, but children do. All one has to do is to pressure them with filial piety and ask them to visit one more often.

Otherwise, Mrs. Xing herself would be tortured to death.

Thinking of this, he glared at his aunt and maids who were still standing there motionless.

"Did you hear that? Are you mute?"

"What did the lady ask you to do?"

These people looked pale and in pain. Although they were unwilling, there was nothing they could do as they had to bow their heads under the eaves.

Now they have no way to control Mrs. Xing, and most of the people here are not familiar with the old lady.

The old ladies generally look down on them, and they don't even have the qualifications to pay a greeting.

Thinking of this, they all bowed to Madam Xing at the same time.

"I will obey Madam's order. From now on, I will give half of my monthly salary to Madam for safekeeping."

Madam Xing smiled happily, "Very good, it's good that you all have this awareness, so that we can serve the master in harmony."

"I'll have someone explain to Feng girl later that all the monthly wages for our courtyard should be given to me."

"I will send you the other half on time."

The aunts and maids were shocked. In the blink of an eye, they were detained instead of handed over. The initiative was gone. This meant that Madam Xing was going to take control of the financial power.

The key point is that Mrs. Xing has always been stingy. If she deducts too much, who will be in charge?

Are you counting on someone who can't get out of bed?

Everyone's thoughts began to wander and they had ideas.

"Are you done? Call a doctor quickly..." The pain in Jia She's leg was even worse than when it was just broken.

I don’t know if it’s because the home is comfortable or because Mrs. Xing is angry with him.

Mrs. Xing also acted quickly at this time. She directly selected five people and said, "The five of you will be in the same group with me."

He called out five more people, then pointed at one at random, "You guys follow Class 1."

"For the last ones left, you guys will be in the same class with Qiu Tong."

"I am in the first class, those who are not in my class please leave first!"

When only five or six people were left in the room, Mrs. Xing raised her voice and said,

"Housekeeper Wang Shan, let the doctor come in. Take a good look at this bone. Why is it so brittle? It could break easily if you're not careful."

Wang Shanbao, the housekeeper outside the house, responded and came in with the doctor, Jia Lian and Jia Cong.

This was the first time the doctor heard of a man taking so long to change clothes.

The key point is that he came in and didn’t notice what clothes Jia She changed into.

The doctor is also an imperial physician, so naturally he knows what should and should not be said in the mansion.

When he saw Jia She's painful look, he hurried forward to check.

Mrs. Xing stood aside, her eyes as cold as ice. There was not a trace of sympathy in her eyes, only a cold smile.

"Doctor, how is the master's injury?" Mrs. Xing's voice was calm.

Jia Lian and Jia Cong behind him looked on anxiously.

The doctor carefully examined Jia She's injuries, then stood up and said to Mrs. Xing:

"He just got a splint and he got a secondary injury so soon."

"And the injury is not light. I still need to straighten the bones. Madam, do you want to step aside?"

"Besides, it may not be good to use Ma Fei San continuously, so we won't use it this time. Master Jia, you have to be patient."

Mrs. Xing's eyes sparkled, and she tightly grasped her handkerchief, "Doctor, you come to the mansion often."

"I don't need to avoid it. Besides, our master has always been a hero."

"Just do what you want!"

"As long as it can make the master get better soon, the master is not afraid of pain."

"Our master has always compared himself to Guan Gong. Scraping bones to cure poison is no problem. The pain is nothing to be afraid of."

Jia She's eyes were bloodshot, he stared at Madam Xing,

Mom and dad, it’s not you who is in pain, you say it so easily and nicely.

The doctor did not forget to ask Jia She,

"Master Jia, what do you think?"

Jia She gritted his teeth and tried his best to get better soon.

"You do it! Just let me get better soon!"

After saying this, he looked at Madam Xing with resentment and said, "Just wait and see how I'm going to torture you to death."

When the doctor saw that the patient's family and himself were so cooperative, he readily removed the splint.

Reach out and give it to him little by little.

When the doctor's hand fell on Jia She's leg, he felt as if his leg was not his own. The pain spread from his leg upwards, and his head was buzzing with pain. From the top of his head to the hair, there was no place that did not hurt.

Jia She felt as if his soul was leaving his body, his vision was blurry, and his ears could no longer hear anything.

"Damn it, are you almost healed? It hurts so much."

After a sound of "Ah..."

"Burp..." Jia She fainted happily.

The doctor stopped what he was doing and looked at Madam Xing who was staring at him intently, and Jia Lian who was surprised.

"Ma'am, this?"

"Master Lian, shall we continue?"

Mrs. Xing said without hesitation, "Of course, continue. Our master is a hero."

"continue!"

Jia Lian opened his mouth, then closed it again. In the end, he said nothing, but just nodded to the doctor.

The doctor admires this family immensely, they are such ruthless people.
