Chapter Five, The Third Master of the Mansion

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

The onlookers at present are all familiar neighbors from the alley, well-acquainted with each other

A humble smile involuntarily appeared on her face, and her voice was no longer as harsh as when she had spoken to Feng Er; she forced a smile and said: "Come and take a look at Second Madam..."

As the tea was served, Jin only took a sip and could not discern any flavor. Seeing Wang Xifeng merely lowering her eyelids to drink tea, he felt increasingly constrained. After a moment's thought, he forced a smile and said: "Who in the family does not know that the second lady is the busiest? I should not have troubled the second lady again, but there is one matter that I truly do not know whether I should discuss with the second lady... If I do not speak of it, it would be a waste of the second lady's past kindness... But if I do speak, I fear it might disturb the second lady's good mood..."

Jia Huan's eyes nearly popped out; he never expected that Jia Cong would actually manage to deceive him this time

Upon hearing this, Jin hurriedly smiled and said: "This is exactly the point! It is like this... With the care of the second grandmother, my maternal uncle's widowed sister's son, Jin Rong, has entered our Jia family's clan school to study. This is indeed a very good thing, and over the past two years, he has made considerable progress."

No one expected that Ni Er's neck was almost broken, and just when it seemed he had already died, he surprisingly managed to come back to life

Gui Laosan's expression remained shockingly unchanged as he said: "When we first carried him in, it was clear that he was already beyond saving. We couldn't go in, we just boiled a few pots of water outside, sprinkled some liquor, and rummaged for some small trinkets. I don't even know what they are for... But just now, Ni Er's mother came out and said that he has come back to life, and he is breathing again, thank heaven..."

Regardless of whether Ni Er is dead or alive, everyone will believe it is his fate

... ...

Jin did not hold back any longer and said: "It's not those two gentlemen; according to Rong'er, they are both excellent. It is... it is the third master of the residence."

This is not a good time for him to show off

Turning past the alley entrance, Jia Cong headed towards the Jia residence on Gonghou Street

After Wang Xifeng took a sip of fragrant tea, she smiled and said

The issue of intraoperative and postoperative infections could cost Ni Erjiu his life

On the back street of Nan Hutong, Jia Cong walked alone at a leisurely pace, his complexion faintly pale

Alright, Sister Huang, there is no need to say more. I am already aware of this matter

Wang Xifeng was taken aback upon hearing this and said, "Which Third Master?"

Upon seeing this, Wang Xifeng's eyes flashed with a hint of disdain, yet her smile became even more radiant as she said: "Sister-in-law Huang is still so considerate, always thinking of me... Ping'er, quickly have someone brew a pot of the fine tea sent from Jinling for sister-in-law to taste."

Isn't this quite good

After passing three intersections, he arrived at Gonghou Street. Stepping on the bluestone slabs, Jia Cong returned to the Jia Mansion, specifically to the Jia She Courtyard, and entered his own small ear room.

The third master of the residence, does he even deserve it

Upon hearing this, Wang Xifeng gritted her teeth in anger and said, "Sister Huangs, please go ahead and speak, who exactly is the worthless person? How could they engage in such shameless acts?"

He was originally prepared to watch Jia Cong's jokes

However, just after asking, I realized it was not Jia Huan. So, who else could it be

Jia Huan grew increasingly annoyed, having missed the excitement and wasted more than half an hour waiting in vain

The nearly forty-minute high-intensity emergency surgery, especially in the complete absence of any surgical instruments, could only be performed at the most superficial level.

It is simply unbelievable, feeling as if it is the greatest absurdity under heaven

Before today, there was only one Mr. Jia San, and that is Jia Huan

Upon hearing this, Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows and said: "Has someone bullied your maternal uncle's son? Who is the worthless person? Just tell me, Sister Huang. In our family, we place great importance on the word 'courtesy.' When did we allow even our own relatives to be treated with disrespect?"

With utmost respect, what a grand display

Given his current physical condition, achieving this step is already quite difficult

Jin's busy road: "It is excellent, but today after Jin Rong returned home, he had a face full of gloom, saying some words that were either condescending or dismissive..."

I never expected that now Jia Cong has also become Master Jia San.

Master San of the residence

The Jia family has two second masters, one is Master Lian and the other is Master Bao

Wow

Seeing those around him praise Jia Cong repeatedly, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart

Second Brother Qi, hurry up and speak, hurry up and speak!

Wang Xifeng's patience was running thin, and she urged for an answer

Before this, when mentioning the third master of the Jia family, everyone could only think of Master Huan San

Wang Xifeng took a deep breath, stood up, paced back and forth a few steps, and then said: "Even ordinary people, despite their foolishness, should know that your nephew was sent in by me through someone, and would never bully him like that. Since my sister-in-law is unwilling to speak, fearing it would put me in a difficult position... then naturally it must be someone from within our two families. Is it Jia Qiang, or... Jia Huan?"

The Kim family is unwilling to speak out.

She has never spoken loudly in front of Wang Xifeng

This is quite remarkable

How are Gui Laosan and Ni Er doing

As she spoke, a sense of sorrow filled Kim's heart, and tears began to fall.

In the side hall of the Rongguo Mansion, before Wang Xifeng arrives, laughter can be heard.

Upon hearing this, Jin took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears and said: "There is no need to mention who it is, as that would only put the second mistress in a difficult position. Today, I have come to disturb you, simply to inform the second mistress of this matter. This should be something that the gentlemen outside should handle, but who does not know that our Jia family's second mistress is more capable than ten men combined! Although I am just a woman, I understand what the clan school represents. If gambling were to take place there every day, then our Jia family..."

He shouted fiercely at the people around him: "I am the one and only Master Jia San!"

The remaining ten percent, let fate decide

In this matter, he did not make an appearance, and the public's curiosity lasted for two days before gradually subsiding

Upon hearing this, Wang Xifeng exchanged a glance with Ping'er, both of them puzzled, and then laughed, saying: "Look at what our elder sister is saying; we are all family here, and naturally, we should speak our minds. What is there to hesitate about? Elder sister Huang, please feel free to speak."

Nowadays, there are no jokes to be found, and even the name of Master Jia San has been lost.

Reading and practicing calligraphy

The second brother of the Qi family said with a hearty smile: "You must be the young master of the Rongguo Mansion, right? Ni Er's mother asked me to convey a message to you, saying that the little divine doctor has already left through the back door. Before leaving, he instructed us to let you know to hurry home, so as not to worry your mother"

Filled with jealousy, Jia Huan shouted, "Hey, where is Jia Cong?"

Jia Huan's wife, Jin, originally came with a heart full of resentment, but upon seeing the imposing presence of Wang Xifeng, her grievances immediately dissipated by more than half

Second grandmother

As for whether Ni Er can survive, he does not have even a 10% certainty

After the two middle-aged men carried Ni Er into the house for Jia Cong, a crowd of people at the alley entrance began to shout

Accompanied by Ping'er and a group of maids and servants, her skirt did not flutter as she walked

Jin was even more delighted upon hearing this, but she had her own thoughts and said: "If it were only such trivial matters, how could I dare to trouble the second lady? For a family like ours, being able to enter the Jia family academy to study is already a great satisfaction; it is all thanks to the second lady's blessings"

Jin did not dare to linger any longer and hurriedly said: "Jin Rong came back today and told his mother that currently in the clan school, they are not studying properly, but instead are engaging in gambling games, quickly turning it into a gambling den!"

A single phrase arose in the hearts of everyone present

Ping'er smiled gently, nodded to the Jin family, and then went out to send someone to fetch tea

Having said that, she turned back and resentfully said to Zhao Guoji: "Let's go, we will settle the score with him when we return!"

Especially that blind fool who actually referred to Jia Cong as Master Jia San

Jinshi Dao: "How could it be fake? My nephew studies diligently every day, and today he was forcibly dragged into a game a few times. He was somewhat fortunate; he initially thought he would just play casually, but unexpectedly, he ended up winning five hundred coins. He actually did not want this money; he is very principled. After my brother passed away, I advised him that he should not take what does not belong to him, and he listens to me very well. But who would have thought that before he could return the money, it was forcibly taken from him. They even scolded him, calling him all sorts of names... He actually did not want this money; he is very principled. After my brother passed away, I advised him that he should not take what does not belong to him, and he listens to me very well. But who would have thought that before he could return the money, it was forcibly taken from him. They even scolded him, calling him all sorts of names..."

Wang Xifeng frowned and said: "This is not a trivial matter. If it gets out, people will say that our family lacks propriety. If we do not discipline them well, it will be a great embarrassment for the adults in the future. Sister Huang, please speak up quickly."

Wang Xifeng was taken aback upon hearing this, her beautiful eyes immediately widened, and she said in a deep voice: "Is it really true that such a thing has happened?"

Gui Laosan and Qi Jia Erge, upon hearing the question, scratched their heads together

Others merely treated him as a child, indulging in laughter for a while. When they saw that the excitement had subsided, they each went their separate ways

Upon hearing Old Gui's words, a wave of astonishment erupted from the crowd

However, if he were to show his face, it would undoubtedly leave an impression on people

... ...

Is there anything else?

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, knowing that he was a person of high status, and thus did not hold him to the same standards.

Upon hearing this, Jia Huan's small face twisted in anger as he shouted: "You worry your mother!"

Oh! How did Sister Huang arrive?
