Corrosion of Ningguo Mansion, Jia Rong’s Self-help

Jia Jing died. Compared with Jia Zhen’s death, Jia Jing’s death is really a major event.

The two masters of the Rongguo Mansion, Jia She and Jia Zheng, couldn’t care less about getting angry immediately, and they hurriedly went to the Taoist temple.

Seeing that Jia Jing’s whole body was gray and white except his face was red and blue, his whole body was as thin as a stick, but his abdomen was so big that he looked like he was pregnant in October.

“What’s going on here? Why do good people just disappear like this?” Jia Zheng questioned the master in the Taoist temple.

Xuanzhen Guanguan sighed and said: “This is the end of the matter, and it is inconvenient for the poor to say more. In fact, the poor has already said it all. It is useless.”

“I don’t know where he got the elixir. After secretly refining it, he took it by himself, but he died of burns. Hey, it’s a sin, a sin.”

Neither Jia Zheng nor Jia She could accept Xuanzhen Guanzhu’s statement, but the facts of the matter were right in front of them, and there was nothing they could do if they didn’t believe it.

The two had no choice but to bring Jia Jing’s body back to Shenjing City. Jia Zhen’s funeral was not over yet, and Jia Jing’s came again.

The two father and son have caught up, but the problem has arisen again, the Jia mansion is so big that it doesn’t even have a good coffin.

It turned out that Jia Zhen sold almost all the things that could be sold at home for her own selfish desires. In addition, Jia Jing had to withdraw silver from the mansion every month to make alchemy and practice Taoism.

With all these comings and goings, the mansion has already become a big hole, otherwise Jia Zhen would not have been able to engage in activities such as lending usury to interfere in the lawsuit.

But now that Jia Zhen is dead, the loan sharks from outside can no longer be collected. Apart from an empty shell, the whole family is completely dilapidated.

Not to mention the high-quality coffin that matches the identity, even an ordinary thin coffin, Jia Rong, a straw bag, can’t get it out.

“What’s this called? Brother Zhen died, and I was the one who gave away money to buy things for the funeral, and now I’m here to respect uncle. I’m not the God of Wealth, I really have no money at all!”

“If there is, it is possible that I have to pay the money. I am the young master of Rongguo Mansion, not the young master of Ningguo Mansion. Even if the two families are connected, I should not pay the money no matter what.”

Jia Lian didn’t expect that all the branches of Ningguo’s family were expecting him to provide money for Jia Jing’s funeral.

Where does he have any money now? As for these branches, it is easy to talk about each other, that is, those who pay money seem to talk about him.

Jia Lian talked about it several times in succession, but what these guys meant behind their words was that they hoped that he would pay for it first, and wait for it.After going to Ningguo Mansion to elect an heir, he is slowly returning.

How can you agree to such a thing? Jia Jing is not Jia Zhen, that would cost a lot.

The matter came up in front of Jia She and Jia Zheng. The two gentlemen usually know how to ask for money from home. When did they ever worry about money?

She also lost her mind. When the old lady heard about it, she couldn’t stop crying.

But it’s useless to just cry, you have to take out the money, and the old lady is also in trouble. If you want to say that you are sad, but you don’t want to take out the money.

They are reserved for her precious grandson, how can they be used outside? As for the words of being ruthless, the older generation will die, so why not be ruthless?

After much deliberation, he was rejected, and only said: “An accident happened to the Ningguo Mansion, and I am also very sad, but after all, there are two families.”

“If the money is paid, it will be hard to talk about some things in the future. Let them figure out their own way. Isn’t brother Jia Rongrong still there? Let him figure out his own way.”

Apparently, the old lady also knows what happened outside. Jia Rong’s family has offended too many people, and the old lady does not want Ningguo Mansion to affect Rongguo Mansion.

This can be regarded as completely pushing the matter onto Ningguo Mansion’s own head.

Jia Rong’s face was full of grief, but she smiled in her heart. No one was willing to pay for Jia Jing’s funeral, but everyone was coveting the title of Ningguo Mansion.

Where is such a good thing? If you want a title, you have to pay, not only for Jia Jing’s funeral, but also for Jia Zhen’s, as well as any possible shortfalls in the future.

Ningguo Mansion was left with an empty shell. Everyone knew this, but what they didn’t know was that Ningguo Mansion owed money to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Only the people in charge of the Ningguo Mansion know about this matter. After all, this big business doesn’t know how to increase income and reduce expenditure. What income can be gained by relying on a few Zhuangzi?

If you don’t borrow money, people from a big family have to send it away during the holidays. Where did you get the money? Eating and drinking, socializing, cultivating the Tao, and buying people all require money.

It’s not a small amount to come and go. Over the years, the Ningguo Mansion owes the court hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

Jia Rong also knew that his father often got angry because of these things, and once wanted to use Qin Keqing’s dowry, but he held back in the end.

Now that she is not willing to pay, Jia Rong feels that she has hope again, but she wants to discuss it with Qin Keqing.

“The people of Ningguo Mansion have discussed these things among themselves, but there is one thing. If you want to inherit the title of Ningguo Mansion, you must first get the funeral done. This is the bottom line.”

After Jia Lian said the bottom line, some people started to retreat. After all, this title is just a title.

What really makes money is the little bit of property in Ningguo Mansion, but if it costs too much, it’s not worth it. They want to wait.

Jia Lian is very disdainful of these people’s thoughts. He wants benefits but doesn’t want to take responsibility. How can there be such a good thing in this world?

Jia Rong went out in a sneaky way, except for the Jia family. After changing her clothes, she immediately ran to the prince’s mansion. No, it has now become the mansion of the Yang family.

Coming to the familiar mansion, looking at the high courtyard walls, Jia Rong was a little worried and flustered.

He who had been wandering around was also seen by the servant guarding the house, walked over and asked, “Who are you, why are you always wandering in front of our Yang’s house? Do you want to do something bad?”

Jia Rong quickly waved her hand and said, “No, it’s just that my wife is inside, I, I want to see her.”

The servant looked him up and down and said, “Your wife? Who is your wife? Just tell me and I’ll let you know.”

The servant only thought that Jia Rong was a daughter-in-law, someone who was in charge of sweeping or helping in the kitchen. After all, there were many poor families who signed contracts of living to be servants.

Jia Rong smiled gratefully and said, “Thank you brother, my wife’s name is Qin Keqing, please trouble me.”

The servant heard the name and went in to spread the word, but the word reached the ears of the housekeeper, because after searching around, he couldn’t find anyone named Qin Keqing.

The servant was about to go out to trouble Jia Rong, and he was talking about it all the way, but was overheard by the manager.

Hearing the name Qin Keqing, the steward immediately noticed it, because Yang Guang once said that he likes to hear Qin Keqing play the piano.

This is something that everyone in the house already knows. Based on Qin Keqing’s looks and talent, he must be liked by the master.

Now someone came to look for it, and the manager felt that the owner must know about it, so he hurriedly reported it.

Yang Guang was leisurely eating fruit and reading scripts at home, but the steward came to report that someone named Jia Rong came to see Qin Keqing at the door.

“Jia Rong, how dare you come to my place, let him in.”
