Chapter 58 Minions are hard to mess with
Jia Yun escorted Jia Cong's master and servant to the gate of Rongguo Mansion and said goodbye to them. Jia Cong and Jin Que were timid, and they encountered something embarrassing again tonight, so they wished Jia Yun could send them in.
But firstly, it is indeed too late at night, and there are many concubines and maids in the mansion, so it is inconvenient for Jia Yun to enter; secondly, the rules of Jia's mansion are strict, and they are all about outsiders. It would be detrimental to Jia Yun if someone really encountered them and started a quarrel.
.
It was hard to say, so Jia Cong could only bite the bullet and cupped his hands with Jia Yun and said: "Okay, you can go back quickly, we will go in now. But don't forget to come find me tomorrow, I have business to do."
I'm discussing this with you."
Jia Yun hurriedly agreed, then turned and left.
Seeing that his figure quickly walked out of Rongning Street and disappeared in the blink of an eye, Jia Cong and Jin Que looked at each other wordlessly for a long time, and finally had to gather their courage, turned around and walked into the house.
As soon as the two of them crossed the knee-high iron threshold, Jin Que quickly hugged Jia Cong's arm, shivering and shouted in a low voice: "Master, I'm very scared..."
Jia Cong was originally frightened. When Jin Que said this, he became even more frightened. However, he had to bite the bullet and comfort him: "Don't be afraid. There is still a light shining on you. What are you afraid of? It's okay!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard someone shouting in his ear: "Who is this person? What is this Black Sky guy doing sneakily? Is he stealing something?"
This loud shout came suddenly, like thunder in their ears. Jia Cong was so frightened that his liver trembled, and he knelt on the ground. Jin Que was so frightened that his whole body collapsed, and he said "Ah"
Start crying.
Jia Cong hurriedly turned his head to follow the shouting: only to see two women coming out of nowhere behind him, holding lanterns in their hands, glaring at them with two dark faces. It turned out to be the gatekeepers of the mansion.
The two mothers-in-law.
The two of them were still about ten feet away, and you could smell the smell of alcohol on their bodies. It seemed that they had just come back from drinking, and they wanted to use someone else as a raft.
Jia Cong was so frightened by the two of them that he couldn't help but frown and wanted to lose his temper, but he quickly held it back:
First, Jia Cong knew that none of the masters and slaves in Jia's house were easy to mess with. The more old people like this are, the more powerful they are. They are the best at talking about rules and regulations, and they are always on the line.
Secondly, even if these two women were just gatekeepers of the Jia Mansion, he would not dare to offend them casually.
It should be noted that there are many servants in the Jia Mansion, and the relationships are intricate and complicated, which is the most powerful thing! Although the two of them are just waiting at the gate, who knows if they have any good relatives or daughters who have good reputation in the manor?
If Jia Cong really annoys the two women, and if someone passes the word in and lets people spread maggots in front of those serious masters, Jia Cong will inevitably suffer a loss.
It’s easy to dodge an open gun but hard to defend against a hidden arrow!
Third, Jia Cong has many plans in the future, and he will inevitably have to go in and out. If he annoys the gatekeeper first, he will be inconvenienced in the future, and he may even delay serious matters because of this villain.
.
Thinking of this, Jia Cong immediately suppressed his unhappiness, forced a smile, bowed respectfully to the two mothers-in-law, and shouted: "It turns out they are two mothers. Mothers are working really hard, so late at night."
I can’t even rest.”
It turned out that the two women had long recognized Jia Cong and Jin Que, and even knew that they were the disgraced concubine masters in the East Mansion, who lived worse than a favored servant, so they wanted to show off their prestige.
, take two people to do it.
Unexpectedly, Jia Cong turned around and bowed first, with a smile on his face. The two women were stunned and didn't know how to move forward.
Jia Cong respectfully asked the two of them again: "Moms, today is a good day for Uncle Rong in the house next door. Have you ever gone to have a wedding banquet?"
After hearing this, one person replied: "Didn't I just come back from a few drinks? Why, brother Cong didn't go?"
Jia Cong did not answer the question, but sighed: "It's so hard for the two mothers. It's so easy to meet a happy event, but you can't drink happily, and you have to worry about the house. It's really hard."
The two ladies-in-law were unhappy because they were not allowed to have a good drink because they were on duty. After hearing what Jia Cong said, they couldn't help complaining and nagging endlessly.
Jia Cong stood aside and listened quietly to the two complaining, but said nothing. Occasionally, he would add insult to injury and say a few words to defend them, which made the two of them complain repeatedly, and they couldn't help but criticize the ten people in front of them.
The next year's child is regarded as a rare confidant in Jia's family.
The two women held up lanterns, and under the light they saw Jia Cong's beautiful features and good-humored expression. While they were complaining, they couldn't help but think: How come this young master is so well-born, so sensible, and even more gentle-tempered?
Isn’t he disliked by others? I’m afraid he, like me, has been misled by those short-sighted things!
The more they looked at Jia Cong, the more they liked him. They stood there chattering for a long time, and then they remembered and shouted: "Brother Cong, you are thin and thin, and the weather is getting cold now, so don't worry about him."
You're freezing. It's so pitiful. Why don't you come to our room and talk?"
Jia Cong saw that the sky was getting darker and darker, and soon the people from Rongguo Mansion came back, so it would be bad to bump into him.
So he smiled and replied: "How dare I say no to Mom's invitation? It's just that it's getting dark and I'm afraid the people in the house will come back; secondly, there's no wine in my house, but there are some good dishes to go with the wine. I'm thinking about Mom.
We are on duty tonight and can't drink as much as we want, so I'm in a hurry to go back and bring it to the mothers, help them with some money, and then exchange some wine for me. Wouldn't it be a good idea to drink a few glasses of it when I have nothing to do at night?"
After hearing this, the two women were even more elated and said hurriedly: "How can this be possible? How can we want the young master's things?"
Jia Cong said hurriedly: "Why not? Mothers work hard day and night, and who can say anything just for a few drinks? Besides, we are all one family, what do we mean by two families? Wait a moment, moms, I'll go right away.
Take it to the mothers..."
The two ladies hurriedly said: "Why do you dare to trouble the young master to bring it again? Is that justified? We can just go and get it ourselves!"
After saying that, one of the women hurriedly held a lantern in front to light the way, and Jia Cong and Jinque followed closely.
Suddenly the three of them arrived at the small shabby courtyard where Jia Cong lived. Jia Cong hurriedly opened the door and lifted the curtain and asked his mother to come in and sit down. Jia Cong first smiled and said: "Mom, don't think my place is dirty. Master, I'll give it to you."
The new yard is being tidied up, but it’s just not cheap for the time being, and we’ll invite the mothers over for a drink when we’re done!”
The woman hurriedly smiled and said: "Where is such a thing? Why is it broken? I look at it and it looks great."
Jia Cong was talking to her, and without stopping, he wrapped a lot of meat that Jia Huan bought yesterday into a big bag, and asked Jinque to bring a small piece of broken silver, and handed it all to the mother-in-law.
Then he said with a smile: "Mom, don't think I'm stingy. When I get rich in the future, I'll treat my mothers to delicacies from the mountains and seas."
When the old woman saw the meat and money, she was so happy that she felt so happy. After hearing what Jia Cong said, she quickly bowed and said, "Good young master, there are no words like this. I'm really grateful to God. It's not too little."
