Red Mansion: I married my wife Lin Daiyu, but she didn’t consummate the marriage.

Looking at the eight hundred taels of silver notes in Ping'er's hand,

Jia Cong couldn't help but sigh.

He should have expected it a long time ago.

Wang Xifeng is a money-hungry owner, and it would be extremely difficult to get money out of her hands.

He himself She was about to sever ties with the Jia family again.

It was strange that she could give all the one thousand taels of silver to herself.

Giving eight hundred taels was already very good.

Jia Cong took the silver note from Ping'er and secretly made a note of it in his heart.

She will definitely repay this debt a hundred times in the future, and at the same time take out one hundred taels of silver and hand it to Ping'er:

"Sister Ping'er, I don't know when I will come back after I leave. I hope you will take good care of me from now on. I will be very grateful when I come back."

Looking at the banknotes in front of him,

Ping'er quickly waved his hand and said:

"Mr. Cong, you don’t have to be like this. We slaves should think about our master. I will come to Miss Er often in the future. As for Mr. Cong, I can also beg my grandma now to ask her to intercede with the old lady."You should be careful when severing ties,"

Jia Cong smiled and forced the banknote into Ping'er's hand:

"Sister Ping'er, I won't bother you with my affairs. As long as you take good care of your sister, it will be a great kindness to me." After saying this,

Jia

Cong took out another five hundred taels of silver and handed it to Si Si. Qi:

"Sister Si Qi, take this money. You and my sister are like sisters, so you don’t have to wrong yourself."

Si Qi responded and took the money.

Ping'er on the side saw Jia Cong giving five hundred to a maid like Si Qi. She was given two taels of silver to make the decision, and she was secretly surprised.

Today's Mr. Cong seems to be a little different from the past. He is decisive in doing things, well-organized, and not bound by money at all. He gave away the five hundred taels of silver without blinking an eye.

Most people don't have such handwriting.

She was surprised and secretly worried.

She heard that her grandma had offended Mr. Cong a lot during this period because of Baoyu and Daiyu.

If Mr. Cong became powerful in the future, wouldn't he want to take revenge?

Thinking of this,

Ping'er secretly decided to treat the second young lady well in the future, at least to form a good relationship. As soon as the few people finished dividing the money, a soft voice came from outside the courtyard door:

"Can Mr. Cong be in the courtyard?"

"Yes, Sister-in-law Zhu, please come in."

The person who came was none other than Jia Lan's mother Li Wan, who was also Jia Cong's sister-in-law.

She walked into the courtyard with gentle steps, her eyes red and a trace of pain on her face.

One glance showed that she already knew the news that Jia Lan was going to the border to join the army, and she probably had just cried. When

Li Wan walked into the courtyard and saw so many people there, he couldn't help but be startled.

"The second young lady and Ping'er are also here."

He hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Ping'er and others knew that she had something to do and couldn't talk to her face to face, so they said hello and left each other. Only

Jia Cong and Jia Cong were left in the yard. Li Wan.

Looking at the pretty widow in front of him, Jia Cong said softly:

"Sister-in-law Zhu is here for something."

"Now there are rumors outside that Mr. Cong wants to sever ties with the Jia family. This is true."

"It is indeed true. We will open the ancestral hall tomorrow and have nothing to do with the Jia family from now on."

Li Wan heard a trace of shock on her charming face.

For her, she really couldn't understand that Jia Cong was about to go to the border to join the army. With the Jia family Only with the protection can we survive better, why do we have to sever ties with the Jia family at this time?

"Mr. Cong, do you want to think about it again? Don't be impulsive. If you feel regretful now, I'll go talk to the master or the old lady,"

Jia Cong said with a smile:

"I have thought this through carefully. Sister Zhu, you must have something to do here this time."

Li Wan pursed his lips and finally said:

"I heard that you and Lan'er are going to the border to join the army. I wanted to ask you to take care of him in the future. Lan'er has been with me since he was a child and has never left me. I'm afraid he won't adapt to the army."

"Sister-in-law Zhu, please rest assured. Although I have severed ties with the Jia family, I am my nephew, so I will naturally take care of him."

Li Wan breathed a sigh of relief:

"Alas, there are no acquaintances at the border. You, Lan'er, Brother Qiang, and Brother Huan need to take care of each other."

Jia Cong frowned slightly.

He remembered that in Rongxi Hall, Wang Xifeng said that Rongguo Mansion is here. Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan,

Jia Rong and Jia Qiang over at Ningguo Mansion, where did Jia Huan come from?

"Sister-in-law Zhu, Brother Huan also goes to the border?"

Li Wan sighed softly:

"Yes, the Ningguo Mansion in the west begged the old lady and borrowed money from here. Not only did they ask Brother Huan to go to the border on behalf of Uncle Rong, when I passed by the second master's yard just now, I heard people crying inside."

Jia Cong didn't know what to say when he heard this.

In short, he deserved to be a bastard.

He looked at the two hundred taels of silver left in his hand and thought that he wouldn't need it even in the army:

"Sister-in-law Zhu, I still have two hundred taels of silver here. I know that it is difficult for you to live alone with Langeer, so please use the money. I hope you can take care of my sister after I leave."

Jia Cong also said It was like repaying the original favor and making arrangements for Jia Yingchun.

But Li Wan quickly shied away:

"Absolutely no, I have collected a hundred taels of silver and want to give it to Mr. Cong. You will be able to take care of things when you arrive at the border in the future. How can I still accept your money?"

Jia Cong couldn't tolerate the other party's refusal and pulled Li up. Wan's hand pushed the banknote into her hand:

"Sister-in-law Zhu, just keep it, I won't need any money at the border, just give your money to Lang Geer."

At this time, Li Wan, whose cheeks were red, didn't even listen to what Jia Cong was saying.

She had been a widow for many years, She had never been close to a man before, so it was already difficult.

Now that Jia Cong suddenly grabbed her hand, she became panicked and her heart was beating wildly.

"Please rest assured, Mr. Cong, I will take good care of the second young lady in the future. If nothing happens, I will go back first."

Without letting Jia Cong say anything, she ran away like a frightened rabbit.

Smelling the fragrance on her fingertips,

Jia Cong Only then did Cong realize how outrageous his actions just now were.

She was his sister-in- law, and in ancient times, even if someone saw touching hands, gossip would spread.

Jia Cong chuckled and was about to turn around and walk back to the room.

Unexpectedly, Lin Daiyu's maid Zijuan walked in pretty, bowed slightly and said:

"Mr. Cong, my wife asked me to tell you that I want to talk to the old lady tonight, so I won’t go back to sleep here tonight."
