Chapter 507 Return to Jinling
Aunt Zhou was surprised that Jia Huan had the money to buy herself.
But she didn't ask Jia Huan anything.
After so many years in Rongguo Mansion, Aunt Zhou learned to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and there was no need to ask questions about many things.
Jia Huan saw Jia Yun and Jia Qiang, who came to buy the man with the money given by Wang Xifeng.
The buyers were all the capable girls and wives around the master, and Yuanyangdi was the first one to be bought.
They left with more than a dozen servants.
After Jia Huan sent Aunt Zhou back to her house, she took Jia Cong to where Jia Mu and the others currently lived.
No one asked much about the return of the two people, and no one except Jia Yingchun and Lin Daiyu cared.
After Jia Yingchun asked about Jia Huan's whereabouts these past few days, she was completely relieved.
Jia Huan and Jia Cong continued to be secretive in this house, and when Jia pardoned Jia Zheng and others, it would be the time for the Jia family to separate.
The emperor had already seen the attitude of the nobles in the court and achieved his goal by searching the Ning Rong's house. Therefore, when King Beijing petitioned the Jia family, he readily agreed that he would be dealt with leniently.
A few days later, Jia She, Jia Zheng and Jia Lian were released.
Jia She and Jia Zheng were deprived of their titles and official positions because of their lax governance. Jia Lian made no mistakes and was capable, so he was reinstated.
Mrs. Wang has not been released. Her loan sharking and champerty are serious crimes. The evidence is conclusive and it is impossible to be released.
After Jia Yun heard the news, she took Jia Rong and Jia Qiang to wait for Jia She and the others outside Dali Temple, and took them home in a carriage.
After returning home, the three of them immediately washed themselves with hot water and went to see Jia Mu after eating.
Jia's mother had been feeling groggy these days, but she felt much better after seeing her two sons return safely.
She told Wang Xifeng: "Girl Feng, go prepare the wedding arrangements. While I'm still here, organize the wedding for Baoyu and Yun Yatou, so that they don't have to wait another three years."
Everyone felt sad, knowing that Jia Mu knew that her time was short and did not want to delay the marriage of her favorite grandson because of her filial piety.
Wang Xifeng agreed and immediately left the room to prepare the things needed for the wedding.
No one mentioned that the groom's biological mother was still in prison.
Except for Jia Baoyu, everyone else thought that Mrs. Wang no longer existed.
Jia Baoyu was only sad that his grandmother, who loved him the most, was about to leave, but he did not think of his own mother.
Wang Xifeng was very efficient and prepared all the wedding supplies in two days.
It was also because the Jia family was now in decline, so there was no need to pay too much attention to many things, so it only took two days to get them done.
No guests were invited, only relatives came.
Lin Ruhai came with Lin Daiyu, Jia Yingchun came with Kong Weixuan, the Xue family also came, and the rest were gone.
None of the nobles I had been friends with in the past came. A steward from the Beijing Palace came, gave congratulatory gifts, and left without a glass of wine.
Xue Baochai looked at the two people worshiping in the hall, and was glad that she had not gone to the dark side. She was very satisfied with her current husband.
Aunt Xue was still frightened and felt sad for her sister who was still in prison.
She couldn't even attend her son's wedding. What evil had her sister done?
The next day, Shi Xiangyun and Jia Baoyu went to kowtow to Jia's mother, Mrs. Jia Shexing, Jia Zheng.
Mother Jia looked at the newly married couple with a smile on her face.
She asked Yuanyang to bring out several boxes and distributed them to Jia She, Jia Zheng, Jia Lian and his wife, Jia Baoyu and his wife, Lin Daiyu, Jia Yingchun, Jia Tanchun, Li Wan's mother and son...
Jia Huan and Jia Cong also received a small box each.
Jia Huan opened the box. Inside was the deed of a small shop and a banknote of five hundred taels.
Looking at the contents of Jia Cong's box, they are the same as him.
As for what's in other people's boxes, there's definitely more than what's in their boxes.
But these are Jia Mu's private property. No one else can say anything about how she wants to divide them.
The Rongguo Mansion was confiscated, and the private properties of other people were confiscated.
However, Jia's mother was a top-notch princess, so the emperor respected her and distributed her dowry and private property.
At the same time, a dowry was distributed to Li Wan, a chaste woman.
Although the dowry distributed was much smaller, Jia Mu was still a rich man.
The things given to Jia Huan and Jia Cong were nothing more than drizzle and big things. She left them to her favorite grandson, and then her grandson and granddaughter, excluding the concubine.
The rest was divided between his two sons.
Mrs. Xing was very dissatisfied with Jia Mu's allocation. She wanted to protest several times, but was scared off by Jia She's fierce eyes.
After Jia's mother divided the property, she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "After I leave, you can divide your family. Anyway, the Jia family has nothing except the land for sacrifice. You don't have to have disputes over family property."
Jia She and Jia Zheng nodded repeatedly, and the two grown men burst into tears.
Jia Mu was too lazy to look at them. She only looked at her favorite grandson: "Baoyu, there will be no more grandmother to protect you in the future. You have to learn to grow up."
Baoyu cried and said: "Old lady, don't leave Baoyu."
"Silly boy, I'm going to see your grandfather. Don't be reluctant. It's time to be happy for me. Okay, I'm leaving. You take care of yourself."
After saying that, Jia Mu closed her eyes.
"Old lady..." Everyone burst into tears.
After that, Jia's family began to hold funerals. Jia She and Jia Zheng wanted to support the spirit and go south, return to their hometown in Jinling, and place Jia's mother in the ancestral grave.
Jia Lian and other grandchildren will also follow him back to Jinling. Jia Huan will not go back. The emperor still needs him to stay in the capital to handle affairs.
Jia Huan proposed to stay in the capital, and Jia Cong followed Jia Huan and expressed his intention to stay in the capital.
Jia Zheng was so angry that he wanted to beat Jia Huan, but Jia She stopped him.
Jia She: "Let's separate our families. Not only do I and you separate our families, let the next generation also separate our families."
He turned to Jia Huan and Jia Cong: "If you two insist on staying in the capital, you will not be able to share the property of me and the second child. Are you willing?"
Jia Huan: "The old lady gave each of us a shop and five hundred taels of silver, which is enough for us to live on."
Jia She: "That's okay."
Seeing that Jia She agreed, Jia Zheng also agreed.
Anyway, he has a legitimate son and a legitimate grandson. It’s okay not to want this useless bastard.
Jia Huan wanted to keep Aunt Zhao, but Aunt Zhao insisted on returning to Jinling with Jia Zheng.
Aunt Zhao thought that it was impossible for Mrs. Wang to be released again, could she be straightened up?
Although she was reluctant to let go of her son, he was not close to her and never listened to her. She would rather choose to be with a man than her son.
Seeing that Aunt Zhao insisted, Jia Huan did not force her to stay, so he sent Aunt Zhou over.
Aunt Zhao was very happy for Aunt Zhou's return.
The two have worked together under Mrs. Wang for more than ten years, helping and supporting each other, and their relationship is very close, like sisters.
I haven't seen Aunt Zhou these days, and Aunt Zhao is still a little unaccustomed to it!
