Chapter 159: Death

8days ago traverse Novels 7
Brother Qiang, after a while, you went into the Meiyuan Garden. You followed me directly into the second door to celebrate the old lady's birthday, and then went to Meiqing Hall in the front yard.

Inside the carriage, Aunt Mei said warmly to Jia Qiang through the curtain.

No wonder there are countless beauties in Yangzhou City. After Jia Min, Lin Ruhai favored this woman alone. Her voice was soft and soft, but she didn't have any charm. She could give birth to the image of a virtuous woman from a good family.

Jia Qiang twitched the corner of his mouth and responded respectfully.

In terms of seniority, this is the same seniority as his aunt...

After driving for more than half an hour, I saw a garden covering a considerable area in the west of Yangzhou City.

The three main doors are open, which is different from the north opening of the door, but the plum garden uses rockery as the screen wall.

A clear spring that was brought from unknown places, hanging upside down into a waterfall, making people forget the world.

The Mei family's green-blooded girl had already come forward and wanted to lead Aunt Mei's carriage into the interior.

However, just as Jia Qiang was about to accompany him all the way, a butler appeared and said with a smile: This brother, the second gate is where the inner family members are located. It is difficult for me to enter at such age.

As soon as this statement was spoken, Jia Qiang was stunned.

He had not yet got married, and he came to give the Mei family a decent place after Lin Ruhai's order.

He didn't believe that Aunt Mei didn't send someone to inform the Mei family in advance, but he couldn't enter to celebrate the birthday of the old lady of the Mei family?

Before Jia Qiang could speak, Aunt Mei in the carriage lifted the curtain and shouted in shock: Sun Cai, what are you talking about?This is our nephew whom we value very much. We specially came to celebrate the old lady's birthday by the order of our master. Do you dare to stop him?Don't retreat yet!

Such a gentle person looks so angry, which shows that he is angry.

However, he did not expect that Sun Cai not only did not retreat, but instead said with a slight smile: It’s so good for the second aunt to know that this is exactly what the old lady and the master mean.Today, there are not only the family’s relatives at home, but also the ladies from other families. I’m afraid it’s inappropriate for my second aunt to bring such an old brother in there?

How could Aunt Mei be a silly butler at the back of the Salt Courtyard as a concubine?

She said with a decisive tone that is absolutely different from her gentle temperament: Okay, since the Mei family does not welcome us, we will not force it on.Brother Qiang, let’s go home!

Jia Qiang nodded, looked at Sun Cai coldly and was about to let someone turn the carriage, but at this moment, a big maid came out of the second door and smiled: Oh!Auntie is back!The old lady urged her a few times, but she never saw her. Now she has arrived, why don’t you go in quickly?

In the carriage, Aunt Mei said in a deep voice: I want to go in, but now I can't get into this door.Meixiang, go in and ask the old lady. Sun Cai said it was the old lady and the old master who sent it to the old lady to celebrate the old lady's birthday and even the people who made progress. Do you really take it seriously?If I were serious, I would follow my husband after getting married. I would have been from the Lin family for a long time and would not have been able to enter your Mei family in the future!

The girl named Mei Xiang was shocked when she heard this. She quickly glanced at Sun Cai, whose face was changing, and then glanced over Jia Qiang's face. After a pause, she hurried to the back house.

At this time, all kinds of people coming and going outside the Second Gate had long seen this scene and spread it to the outside...

This Yangzhou Prefecture is indeed about to change.

……

Salt Courtyard.

Churindo.

Chen Rong, the Censor, looked at Lin Ruhai who was recuperating on the couch with a serious expression and said in a deep voice: Sir, this matter should not be false. There has been a lot of controversy outside, but it is just strange, why did Jinling not have any news?Then wasn’t Jia Yucun, the prefect of Yingtian, recommended by the adults?If such a big deal really happened, how could he...

Although Lin Ruhai's face was indifferent, his eyes still twitched when he heard the words Jia Yucun.

Now that I think about it, I really saw the wrong person...

When he was seriously ill at first, Jia Yucun rushed to Yangzhou in person to ask about medicine. Even when he returned to Jinling, he sent someone to ask about it every three days.

After the doctor said that he was terminally ill and hopeless, the number of times he asked about the disease was greatly reduced.

After he sent someone to the capital to ask Daiyu to come back to serve the doctor, Jinling became completely silent.

He has been ill and confused, so he has never thought about this.

Now it seems that this person is really as Jia Qiang said, and his heart is extremely cold and weak.

Fortunately, he came alive...

Lin Ruhai breathed gently and smiled at Chen Rong and said: Mianren, have you not stayed enough in this salt courtyard?Are you not bored with salt affairs yet?

When Chen Rong heard this, he forced a smile and said: Even so, the lord is still in Yangzhou, and there are people in Jinling...

Before he finished speaking, Lin Ruhai waved his hand and said: I have even paid the bill. How could the emperor not send someone to supervise the salt affairs?Although you have recommended it to me, the Holy Family is a little short of it... I just didn't expect that the Duke of Banshan would actually serve as the Governor of Liangjiang.It seems that Brother Qiang'er's affairs in the capital have caused quite a stir.Otherwise, Han Banshan should have entered the military plane this time.

When Chen Rong heard this, he said with a strange expression: Brother Qiang has even formed such a big enemy?Then he still wants to gain a foothold in Southern Province?Han Banshan was famous all over the world and was full of hope. After three years of being the governor, he was afraid that he would be able to go straight to the military plane and become the foreman.

The central government is highly centralized and the chief military aircraft is really a polite prime minister!

Chen Rong couldn't think of what Jia Qiang could leave behind when he made enemies with such a person...

Lin Ruhai smiled and said: But there are some misunderstandings. Besides, it may not be a good thing for the military planes of the Mid-mountain at this time.As for Brother Qiang... Mianren may not know that although Duke Banshan and I have never been an official in the same province, they have been in contact for a long time.In the 28th year of Jingchu, I took the first ruthless move in Yangzhou, destroying the private salt smuggling party led by Gou, and collide with two million taels of stolen silver. Half of the stolen silver was escorted to the capital by orders, and half of the two were directly rescued to Henan, which was suffering from the Yellow River flood, and immediately solved the disaster of Banshan Gong, who was then the governor of Henan.Since then, I and him have to communicate with him every three months to discuss the way to govern the people and become officials.Mr. Banshan is really my good teacher.

Chen Rong didn't know that Lin Ruhai and Han Bin had this kind of friendship, so he said happily: Do you have such a connection?If this is the case, wouldn’t it be like an adult like me?

Lin Ruhai smiled and was about to say something else, but suddenly he heard the butler outside the hall say: Master, the front yamen sends a message in and says that there is an old man outside and wants to see the master. He said his name is Han Bin.

Chen Rong was inexplicably heard this, and was excited and asked first: What is his name?

The housekeeper replied: It is said that he looks like a farmer...

Chen Rong wanted to ask more questions, but Lin Ruhai had already stood up and said: Come with me quickly to meet Mr. Mid-Shan!

……

Auntie, the old lady said that there are many guests in the house today, which is really inconvenient... However, the old lady has sent Mr. Gu to accompany the guests in person, and said that after the birthday party, she will receive guests in person and told her not to be upset.

Outside the second gate of Meiyuan, the girl next to the old lady of Mei family smiled and said to Aunt Mei.

Although Aunt Mei still felt something was wrong, today was the 70th birthday of the old lady of the Mei family. She didn’t want to make a big fuss, so she asked Jia Qiang: Brother Qiang, what do you think?

Jia Qiang knew that something must have happened, otherwise the huge Mei family would have done such a thing unless they were crazy.

But for a moment he couldn't think of what happened that could make the Mei family so crazy.

However, no matter what happened, Jia Qiang was not afraid.

With the Yanyuan Yamen and Lin Ruhai in Yangzhou, he was in the territory of Yangzhou. If he didn't do anything wrong, he would be better. How could he worry about the Mei family doing bad things?

Thinking of this, he said to Aunt Mei: Just go in, but after the birthday party, I don’t have to go in.Before leaving, Aunt Lin at home told me that I would go out to burn incense and fulfill my wish in the afternoon, so I would go and prepare in advance.

After hearing what Jia Qiang said, Aunt Mei naturally had nothing to say.

How can a young man who has been praised by the Emperor one after another in the capital without a temper?

So how could a small Mei family arrange it...

Aunt Mei whispered: Okay, when the birthday party is over, I will come out early and let’s go back together.

After Jia Qiang responded, at this moment, a young man in his twenties came over and asked Aunt Mei first.

Aunt Mei's face was faint and said: Brother Gu, this is the newly accepted disciple of the Censor, and he is also the great-grandson of the Jia family in Ningguo, Beijing. Since the threshold for the second gate of the Mei family is high, they will not go in. You can settle down.After a pause, he looked at Mei Gu deeply and said meaningfully: Brother Gu, my uncle had an interpersonal relationship with my master at that time. Brother Qiang was a disciple of our master, and he was still an equal to the master of the Mei family.Today, you tell the master to treat him well.

After saying that, he nodded to Jia Qiang again and stepped into the second gate.

Mei Gu's face changed a little. He was not a fool. In fact, if the Mei family was in the capital, or the Jia family was in Jiangnan, it would not be his turn to welcome Jia Qiang at this moment, and his father must have come in person.

However, as the saying goes, it is better to be in charge of county officials now.

Even if the Jia family is more than good, but the emperor is far away, how can the huge Yangzhou room be able to do?

If the Mei family warmly entertained him today, and gave Lin Ruhai enough decent, when Lin Ruhai and Jia Qiang returned to the capital, they would have to bear the consequences.

Therefore, the two powers will be the least likely to be affected.

As for offending the Lin family...

Anyway, the Mei family’s daughter is considered half of the head wife of the Lin family. Could it be that the Lin family will still use the Mei family as a preceptor?

As he thought in his heart, Mei Gu led Jia Qiang to the side hall of Meiyuan...

In the main hall, his father Mei Xun and other parents of the Mei family will have a banquet for the adults of Yangzhou Prefecture.

If Jia Qiang came with Lin Ruhai today, this arrangement would be barely reasonable.

But today he came on behalf of Lin Ruhai, and the Mei family arranged this way...

Jia Qiang stood in front of the side hall, looked at Mei Gu with a cold look, and sneered: It is strange that after Mr. Fu Weng passed away, the Mei family's literary spirit was dissipated, and their descendants were unworthy, and they all became unfamiliar merchants.如今看来,还真没冤枉你梅家。Very good, I want to see how far your Mei family can do to death.

Since the Mei family is completely shameless, why should he keep his face?

But Jia Qiang really couldn't figure out where the Mei family was so confused...
