Chapter Thirty-Seven

Jia Yun crossed the screen and saw a group of (old) women gathered around the table playing dominoes.

The ancients lacked entertainment, so it was normal for men to gamble in brothels and women at home to listen to plays and play cards.

"The boy has met the old lady, madam, and aunt."

Jia Yun greeted everyone, and ignored the two aunts.

Li Wan has always been indifferent, so naturally he doesn't care, but Wang Xifeng is different. Seeing Jia Yun ignoring her, Liu Yemei raised her eyebrows immediately and complained to Jia's mother: "Old ancestor, look, I am also an elder after all. This Yun

Brother, he didn't even say hello, he was really bullying, oh... no wonder I'm so lucky today, I bet it's because of this poor settlement."

Jia Mu laughed when she heard this, and spat: "Don't make trouble in front of me. You are not good at craftsmanship, and you are blaming others. I am so angry that you even call others a broken family. I think you are the real broken family."

.”

"Oh... Grandpa, I just made a few grumbles, but I don't know how to save some face for you, my great-nephew."

After saying this, Wang Xifeng covered her face with the handkerchief and complained, which made everyone amused.

Although Wang Xifeng's words meant to blame Jia Yun, the tone was obviously joking. It was probably just to please Jia's mother, but Jia Yun didn't take it seriously.

Mother Jia's face was full of smiles. She looked at Jia Yun's expression in the hall as usual, but she was confused in her heart. With Jia Yun's temper, it was surprising that Wang Xifeng didn't feel unhappy when he teased him. She didn't know when Wang Xifeng had a relationship with Jia Yun.

This is going to be better...

If Jia Yun knew what Jia Mu was thinking, he would have really wronged the person. It would be a trivial matter if he didn't care about the "female generation".

It is estimated that Jia Yun made too much noise in Rongqing Hall and gave Jia Mu a bad impression, so she took the lead first.

After the laughter was over, Jia Mu said to Jia Yun in the hall: "If you have anything to do, just tell me."

Mother Jia's tone indicated that she expected that Jia Yun would come to look for her because of something. She wanted to get rid of Jia Yun as soon as possible and have a good time, so she asked her directly.

Jia Yun said bluntly: "In front of the old lady, I told you straight away that I wanted to move out of the house and came here specifically to tell the old lady."

Although Jia Yun is not from the Rongguo Duke's mansion and is just staying temporarily, he must say hello to the "host's family" before leaving. This is etiquette. Secondly, Jia Yun's surname is always Jia. If he doesn't say a word to Jia's mother,

, it can't be justified no matter what, especially since Jia Yun is an official in Beijing, he still needs things like reputation.

What's more, Jia Yun just said something, not asked for instructions.

"You evildoer, what kind of trouble are you going to make?"

Jia's mother was not deaf, so she couldn't hear what Jia Yun said, and her expression turned gloomy on the spot. It wasn't that she cared about Jia Yun, but that everyone knew why Jia Yun came to Rongguo Duke's residence temporarily, and they couldn't help but think about Jia Yun.

call the shots,

Jia Yunping said calmly: "Old lady, I'm not making any trouble. I just went to the Imperial City to see His Majesty and got a new job. I don't need to stay in the mansion to study. It would be unsightly to live in the mansion anymore.

"

Jia Mu's expression softened a lot after hearing this. If the Holy Father didn't care about Jia Yun's studies, there would really be no need for Jia Yun, the "culprit", to stay in the house.

"Brother Yun, have you met the Holy Master today?" Aunt Xue couldn't help but said, with a sense of urgency.

Jia Yun saw Aunt Xue losing her composure and knew the reason. Xue Pan was still in the prison, so when he asked Jia Yun about meeting the Holy Spirit, he was naturally impatient.

Jia Mu and others also knew it well, especially Wang Xifeng, who had been the matchmaker in the beginning.

Jia Yun nodded and replied: "Exactly."

Aunt Xue's expression softened, and she asked hurriedly, regardless of Jia Mu's presence in the hall: "Brother Yun, I wonder what the Lord means about my brother?"

Mother Jia glanced at Aunt Xue, but she didn't say anything, but she felt quite unhappy. Regarding the Xue family's matter, if her uncle didn't go to the Holy Lord to plead for mercy, she would ask the juniors of her Jia family to go...

Everyone knows about Xue Pan. It was him who drank too much yellow soup. Who is to blame...

Looking at Aunt Xue's expectant eyes, Jia Yun replied: "How can I know your Majesty's intention? When Your Majesty calms down, Uncle Xue will be fine."

Jia Yun is not a fool. How could he mention Xue Pan's matter in front of Emperor Chongming? He is not full.

Aunt Xue suddenly felt sad when she heard this. Jia Yun's tone was just like what Xue Baochai said at the beginning. She guessed that she didn't say a word in front of Emperor Chongming and was just fooling people.

Wang Xifeng on the side couldn't help but sneer. It was exactly as she expected. Man, you can't believe it when you say one thing and do another.

Mrs. Wang couldn't stand it anymore and immediately said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Yun, we are hiding from each other. If you can help, you should always help. If others find out, they will say that people in our house have no rules."

Hearing this tone, I felt strange for Jia Yun.

Jia Yun said: "I know that, but I'm very soft-spoken, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help. But don't worry, madam, if we can help, I won't just sit idly by and ignore it."

The words have been spoken anyway, whether they are done or not is another matter. Mrs. Wang is also a shrewd person. She couldn't hear what Jia Yun said. She looked dissatisfied and was about to reprimand. Jia Mu said calmly: "Brother Yun has this

You have a very good intention, and between the sisters-in-law, you still have to help those who need to be helped."

Seeing Jia's mother speak, Mrs. Wang could only swallow her words, but her impression of Jia Yun became even worse.

Jia Yun replied: "The old lady is absolutely right."

As if she was about to send Jia Yun away, Jia Mu said, "It's a good thing that you want to leave the house and start your own business."

Then he tilted his head and ordered: "Yuanyang, go to the accountant's office to withdraw one thousand taels of silver and send it to Brother Yun. It's a token of my gratitude from the old lady."

Wang Xifeng on the side took advantage of the opportunity and laughed loudly: "Ouch... Our ancestors still care about you. Being your great-grandson will be a great blessing. Tomorrow, I will change my clothes and my ancestors will reward me with three melons.

I’ll be satisfied with just two dates.”

Jia Mu smiled and scolded: "Go, go, go...everywhere is your business."

Then Jia's mother said to Jia Yun: "Since you want to start your own business, I won't stop you. If you need it, you might as well say it directly. After all, we are a family, and we can't write two characters "Jia" in one sentence."

Jia Yun really had something to ask for, and immediately said: "Old lady, the boy is not short of money, but he needs a smart maid to serve him. Although Qingwen is not with the boy for a short time, she is smart. I don't know if the old lady is willing to give up."

Give that Qingwen to the boy?"

When Jia Mu heard this, she knew that what Jia Yun was talking about was about Qingwen's slave contract. She thought it was something other than a maid. Originally, since she sent Qingwen to serve Jia Yun, there was no need to be petty.

"Since you like it, I'll give it to you."

Then Jia Mu ordered: "Yuanyang, take Qingwen's slave deed and bring it over too."

Since Jia Mu is willing to give money, Jia Yun is not polite. Why not accept the free money? Originally, Jia Yun didn't have much money, and he planned to buy a worse house to make ends meet. With Jia Mu's gift,

If you can buy a nice house, why not?

Thinking of this, Jia Yun said kindly: "The boy just thanked the old lady..."

Jia's mother was able to agree, which was not beyond Jia Yun's expectations. Anyway, it was just a matter of a maid. She gave away a thousand taels of silver. She still cared about a maid, so she sent Jia Yun away earlier to keep things clean...
