Chapter 81 Introspection

"What's going on? What's going on? How did it get to this point?"

After Yuanyang and Daiyu's mother sent Daiyu, who had fainted from crying, to Nuange, Jiamu came back to her senses and asked.

Jia Zheng looked sad. He had a deep affection for Lin Ruhai, his sister-in-law, and admired him very much.

Lin Ruhai was born into a family that has been filled with nobles for generations, and has a good background. Not to mention this, he is also very successful in studying, and is ranked among the top three in the gold list!

Not to mention Jia Zheng, even when Jia Daishan was alive, they all liked this son-in-law.

Later, Lin Ruhai performed well and won the trust of two generations of emperors. As soon as Emperor Long'an ascended the throne, he sent this latent and beloved minister to the south to take charge of the most important sacred place and the salt administration.

This is the best job in the world!

In such a fat position, with countless pairs of eyes staring at it, Lin Ruhai performed almost impeccably.

Not only did he deliver a large amount of salt tax to the imperial court, but also to Emperor Long'an. His personal integrity was also admired by both the government and the public.

Such a person is almost the model of a famous minister in Jia Zheng's dream!

But I didn't expect that my sister-in-law would have such a miserable fate.

I lost my father and my mother in my early years, my son and my wife in my middle age, and now I even lose myself...

With his eyes red, Jia Zheng said sadly: "On August 15th, when my sister-in-law wrote to me to wish my mother a happy holiday, she said in the letter that she was not in good health, but she was still doing well. She told me not to disturb the old lady, but first

I didn't tell you, but I didn't want to, and it has reached this point in a blink of an eye!" Seeing that Jia's mother could not hide her sadness, Jia Zheng had to persuade her: "Don't worry too much about mother, the palace has sent an imperial doctor there, I think it will have miraculous effects.

.Now it is just a precaution, so I have to send someone to send my niece south as soon as possible to fulfill my filial piety."

Jia Mu wiped away her tears and choked up and said: "Of all the children, the one I love most is Yu'er's mother. She was unfilial and abandoned me early, leaving me an orphan. Now even this son-in-law...

…”

Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue, Wang Xifeng and others quickly persuaded her, and the Jia sisters all looked solemn.

After a while, Jia Mu restrained her tears and asked: "Which one should I send to send Yu'er to the south to serve her father?"

Jia Lian hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Ancestor, the master has said that I should go there in person this time. If my uncle is well, then everything will be fine. If something bad happens, firstly, I have to bring Sister Lin back, and secondly,

, there must always be a family member to help Sister Lin take care of everything. There are not many direct members of the Lin family, and the remaining ones are all remote relatives, still as far away as Suzhou."

In fact, there are still many famous names here. Even though Lin Ruhai is as clean and honest as water, after all, he has been in the family of nobles for many generations and has a lot of wealth.

The price of land and houses in the Su and Yang areas is not lower than that in the capital.

What's more, there is the dowry of Daiyu's mother Jia Min...

But don't underestimate this dowry. When Jia Min left the cabinet, her father Daishan was still there, and he was truly a first-class Rongguo Duke!

For the youngest beloved daughter, marrying Jinke Tanhualang of that subject is a match made in heaven.

The dowry given was something that Mrs. Wang was still envious of after many years.

This generous dowry is to be taken back to the Jia family and will belong to Daiyu in the future.

In short, no one can rest assured if there is no truly reliable person to handle these matters.

Hearing this, Jia Mu sighed and said, "If that's the case, I'll just give Lian'er a hard time..." After saying this, Jia Mu suddenly paused, her eyes fell on Jia Qiang beside her, she frowned, and her plan came to her mind.

, said: "However, how can you handle such things if you are not the only one? It just so happens that Brother Qiang will go south tomorrow. You two will go together together."

Everyone was startled when they heard this, and then their eyes fell on Jia Qiang.

Jia Qiang was speechless, looked at Jia Mu and said: "Old lady, I am not going to Yangzhou, but to Jinmen."

Jia Mu frowned and said, "Why are you going to Jinmen?"

Jia Qiang explained: "I have a good friend whose father is seriously ill, and there is no cure in Beijing. However, I heard that the Western doctors in Tianjin are unique, so I sent him to see if he can be cured."

Jia Mu said angrily: "Well, a friend with a foreign surname is sick, and you are willing to personally take care of me to see Dr. Lao Shizi. Your aunt's father is so ill, so you can't leave her alone as a weak girl." Are you willing to help?!"

This old pious woman...

Jia Qiang was helpless when Wang Xifeng suddenly had an idea and said, "Qiang'er, is that Western doctor you mentioned really unique?"

Jia Qiang nodded and said: "The treatment of internal diseases is not as good as that of Dayan's famous doctors, but for some serious external injuries, he may have some unique skills."

Wang Xifeng clapped her hands and said: "Since it is useful to care about internal and external diseases, you might as well get on the boat and take her directly to Yangzhou. On the boat, you will first show it to your good friend, my father, and then to your great-aunt and father-in-law in Yangzhou." , I won’t waste any more time, wouldn’t it be nice for you and your second uncle Lian to be each other’s companions?”

Before Jia Qiang could speak, she heard Jia Lian calmly say: "He, can he do it?"

You are such a bastard...

Jia Qiang glanced sideways at this guy and said, "Westerners may not be willing to go south."

Jia Mu said categorically: "How dare those Westerners not listen? I remember that Jinmen Town was originally the old army of the old Duke. Sir, please give a post to Brother Qiang. If those Westerners don't listen to their good words, Let the town of Jinmen destroy his foreign temple!"

When Jia Zheng heard this, he frowned, but he still agreed.

Jia Mu stared at Jia Qiang and asked, "Do you have anything else to do?"

Jia Qiang twitched the corner of her mouth. At this point, he could still say more, so he could only say: "If you can prevent me from breaking my trust, it would be better to have the best of both worlds."

Jia Mu then turned her face and said: "In that case, you go and discuss with your second uncle and second aunt how to go. I also need to prepare some more things for Yu'er. Take it with you." Suddenly he remembered: "Has the boat been booked?"

Jia Lian nodded and said, "I just sent someone to ask. There happens to be a passenger ship departing from Sanshui Pier to Yangzhou at noon tomorrow. Three guest rooms have been booked."

Jia Qiang also nodded and said: "The Jinsha Gang has also booked a boat."

Jia Mu said proudly: "You all go back. I will pay you to order a whole ship. You can go to Jinmen to pick up the people and then go to Yangzhou."

In order to trap Jia Qiang, she spent a lot of money.

Booking a single room for a trip to Yangzhou costs only ten taels of silver, which is already considered a very good room.

But if you want to charter a boat, it will cost hundreds of taels of silver.

Jia Qiang couldn't figure out Jia Mu's thoughts. At this point, he had no room to fight back, so he could only agree.

I kept reminding myself, don’t rely on your status as a time traveler to feel that you are smarter than others.

Let's not talk about others, just look at Jia Mu, an old lady who lives in the back house. In order to achieve her goal, her speaking skills are so steady that she can fly step by step.

Jia Qiang didn't even have an excuse to refuse.

What's unclear now is what exactly this old lady is planning, and why she insists on keeping an eye on him...
