Chapter 22 Diligently Picking Up the Household
"Oh! Mom, are you back?"
After seeing Aunt Zhao enter the courtyard, Jia Huan decisively gave up and continued to set up every house with Xiao Jixiang, and welcomed him with a warm welcome.
"A little bastard who is so sad, I have been standing for most of the day with tea and water. Why do you think I'm coming back too early?"
Therefore, people should be cultured, otherwise no matter what your original intention is, the taste and meaning of the words may become completely different.
Seeing Aunt Zhao curling her lips, rolling her eyes, and waving her embroidered handkerchief to curse, Jia Huan could only smile bitterly.
There are two types of people in the world who cannot help you no matter whether you like it or not. One is the parents who give birth to you, and the other is the children you give birth to.
Especially when both parties are connected in a single line.
However, when Jia Huan saw a twelve or 3-year-old girl following her, Jia Huan was stunned. Then she remembered that Aunt Zhao also had two maids around, one of which was naturally Jia Huan's friend Xiao Jixiang. The other should be the one in front of her, and her name was probably Xiaoque.
This maid is the informant who was placed by Mr. Bao next to Aunt Zhao. If Aunt Zhao had any slander around Master Jia Zheng, Xiaoque would be responsible for notifying Yihongyuan on the front line...
Perhaps it was because of the saying that the butt determines the head. When I was studying the Red Chamber, Jia Huan thought that Xiaoque was a good maid with great integrity.
But now, no matter how you look at Jia Huan, she feels that there is a rebellious bone on the back of her head...
"What are you looking at? I didn't see a flower growing on her face. Oh, by the way, this slave is Xiao Que, you shouldn't remember it. If you have any questions in the future, tell her to do it..."
Seeing that Jia Huan didn't follow, Aunt Zhao turned around and looked at Xiaoque without blinking, and couldn't help but say angrily.
In her opinion, Xiaoque didn't even have one tenth of her appearance, and she was just a fool!
No prospect!
Hearing Aunt Zhao's words, Jia Huan could clearly see that the maid Xiaoque's body shook slightly, his face lowered a little ugly, but he didn't say anything.
Although this is already a fact, it does not mean that the maid has no dignity...
After Jia Huan sighed secretly, "There is no love for no reason in this world, nor is there no hatred for no reason." He raised his little face, showed a very sunny and bright smile at Xiaoque, and said hello: "Sister Xiaoque, hello, I'm very happy to know you, my name is Jia Huan."
"Bang!"
As soon as Jia Huan finished speaking, someone sucked the back of his head. It was not heavy, but he still shook it...
"Are you Lihun or stupid? She is just a maid and sister. Does she have such a blessing?"
Aunt Zhao was whispering while teaching Jia Huan a lesson, and pulled his arm into the house. She also turned around and told Xiaoque: "Xiaoque, go to the kitchen and give me some advice. For lunch, let them put more meat. She said that Brother Huan's health is not yet well-behaved and needs to be replenished!"
After the maid Xiaoque responded softly, she turned around and walked through the drooping flower gate and disappeared.
After Aunt Zhao entered the inner room, she waved her hand to drive Xiao Jixiang away like a flies.
However, Xiao Jixiang is still young and may not have too strong self-esteem. When passing by Jia Huan, he even made a face to him.
When she saw Jia Huan responding to an even more exaggerated face, she ran away with a smirk.
It’s only a little bit of benefit to be a maid for your aunt. You don’t have to stand and wait for the rules at any time. You can go out to play with your friends...
When Jia Huan turned his head, he saw Aunt Zhao spread her legs very indecently, lying on the kang with her legs raised and whispering to her mouth.
"I'm so tired! A bunch of dark hearts..."
Aunt Zhao cursed quietly while giving out a hand to unbutton the cloth buttons on her neck.
Originally, Jia Huan thought she was so hot that she looked at the sky and the yellow leaves falling on the ground in the courtyard outside. It should have just begun autumn, but it may be because of the tigers in the off-season autumn, the weather is still a bit hot.
But to Jia Huan's surprise, Aunt Zhao untied one and then untied one, and then untied most of it until she was under her armpit.
Maybe she felt Jia Huan's surprised gaze. Aunt Zhao raised her neck and raised her head. She looked at Jia Huan and wanted to scold her, but she remembered Jia Huan's words in the morning. She didn't scold her words like "Macau's Heart Worm" after all.
Jia Huan looked at Aunt Zhao with innocent eyes and said, "Mom, do you want to change your clothes?"
Aunt Zhao said angrily: "I'll change your mother's clothes!"
After saying that, she reached into her arms and pulled it hard, pulling out a pink brocade cloth.
Jia Huan looked carefully and found that it turned out to be a piece of clothing.
He looked at Aunt Zhao in amazement, not understanding the meaning.
"What are you looking at? Have you never seen it?"
Aunt Zhao seemed to be furious by Jia Huan's eyes and scolded him angrily.
Jia Huan felt a little bad and asked, "Mom, where did this... come from?"
When Aunt Zhao heard this, she said proudly: "Where did you come from? Hehe, can I set rules for them for free? This is the cost of setting rules for me!"
Jia Huan's chin was almost falling off and he said incredibly: "Mom, you... did you steal it from your wife's room?"
When Aunt Zhao heard this, she immediately spat in the direction of Jia Huan and cursed: "Can this be called stealing? Is this stupid? This is called picking up! You are really uneducated. Have you ever heard of picking up and managing the family frequently?"
Jia Huan was completely Spartan and really didn't know what to say.
This is how the thrifty family is explained...
When Aunt Zhao saw Jia Huan's dull face, her two beautiful eyebrows were raised and she was about to curse, but her eyes flashed and turned into a proud expression. She smiled and said, "Huan'er, don't say you look down on your mother. Open the cabinet behind and the bottom square, open it and take a look!"
Jia Huan felt worse and worse. He looked at Aunt Zhao vigilantly and said, "What are you doing? Are there all the stolen goods you stolen?"
"Pooh!"
Aunt Zhao glared at Jia Huan fiercely and said, "You open it and then talk about it."
Jia Huan looked at him again with concern, and saw that Aunt Zhao's eyes became more and more proud, but her heart became more and more uneasy.
He walked over and opened the wardrobe that was a little taller than him, which contained more folded clothes.
Jia Huan ignored his clothes and squatted down and opened the bottom drawer. When he saw it, he frowned:
"Mom, what are these things?"
The bottles and jars filled with drawers, there are teapots, tea cups, small vases, silver spoons, golden tweezers, and jade-white chopsticks...
Anyway, a bunch of messy little things.
After hearing Jia Huan's words, Aunt Zhao laughed and said proudly: "Didn't you say that your mother was stealing? I told you that all these things are the same, you stole them! Humph, you dare to look down on your mother. I said I wanted to sell them for you, but you didn't want them. I insisted on selling them yourself in the future. Fortunately, I didn't take action, otherwise how would you pick you up now? Hahaha!"
Jia Huan is completely muggy. Who is this?
Do you want to be so proud? My mother and son are both thieves. Is it so glorious?
Of course, judging from Aunt Zhao's performance, she really took it from the bottom of her heart and did not treat herself as a thief.
Perhaps in her opinion, everything in Rongguo Mansion is one-third of hers. Although this third is Jia Huan's, her biological mother has the right to fight for her son.
What does this little thing count? It doesn’t count at all!
Jia Huan definitely doesn't believe that Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, who are so scheming, will be confused by these small actions of Aunt Zhao and "Jia Huan".
Aunt Zhao and "Jia Huan" thought they were unaware of their actions, and they had definitely been discovered by Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng.
But the two never said it.
What do you say? Say Jia Zheng’s concubine is a thief?
Most importantly, what are the benefits of saying it out?
Discipline their opponents to turn aside?
Instead of making a joke now, it is better to hold it in your hands as a handle. What can a thief do?
From the bottom of their hearts, maybe they would be more willing to see Aunt Zhao and Niang, especially Jia Huan, becoming such a stealing person.
Because such a person will not pose any threat to Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu.
Thinking of this, Jia Huan could only smile bitterly.
To be honest, he had never thought about bringing the Jia family, a noble family that had already begun to decline.
Because what you get is obviously disproportionate to what you pay.
If he wanted to control the family's family, first of all, he would probably kill Mu Jia and Mrs. Wang, and then Jia She, Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng, Jia Lan and even Li Wan.
In this way, there will be no one in the Jia family.
His biological mother, Aunt Zhao, would probably be very happy, but Jia Zheng would definitely be very angry, and he would definitely be able to kill his relatives for justice.
So, since he did not intend to gather the Rongguo Mansion for himself, there is no need to make a fuss now.
But, it's too embarrassing.
"Mom, forget it this time. Can you stop 'take' home in the future? We don't lack food and clothing, so why bother?"
Jia Huan thought to himself.
Aunt Zhao sniffed and said, "Why are you not short of food and clothing? This time, in order to save you, I rumored through the bottom of the box, wasn't that the more than one hundred taels of silver I took out? Without this one hundred taels of foundation, hum, I really don't even have a place to cry."
Jia Huan said speechlessly: "Mom, I have explained it to you clearly. The one who saved me is not Ma Daopo or the Medicine King Buddha, but the old man of Jia's family. Even if you..."
Before Jia Huan finished talking, Aunt Zhao said impatiently: "What do you know? Even if you are lucky this time, what will happen next? What should I do then? I still hope that old man who died? Go and go, go and play wherever you are cool, don't bother me."
Seeing that Jia Huan was persuaded to persuade him with kind words, he lost his patience and said, "Mom, aren't you afraid that your wife and second sister-in-law will know about this?"
When Aunt Zhao heard this, she sat up and pointed at Jia Huan and cursed: "You are so heartbroken, you... are you going to report me?"
Jia Huan smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, what are you saying? Besides, do I still need to report this? Do you think they don't know?"
Aunt Zhao's face turned pale and said in a trembling voice: "Huan'er, don't scare me. You... what have you heard? Did the wife and Feng Yatou already know? No... it's impossible?"
Seeing Aunt Zhao trembled with fright, Jia Huan felt a little embarrassed, but he really didn't want to see Aunt Zhao marveling so absurdly, so he had to make up his mind and said, "I must know what my second sister-in-law said today. I was wondering at first, what she meant by saying those words. What did she think she was not aware of, and what was not very clean, but now I understand that she was talking about us women!"
"Ah! It's over!"
