I pretend to be a unicorn in the Red Mansion
Chapter 64 Zhou Ruijia's Death
Jia Cheng was pretending to be asleep at first, but following Zhou Ruijia's rhythmic begging for mercy, he really fell asleep.
When he woke up again, it was already night. If he hadn't been hungry, he wouldn't have woken up.
As soon as Jia Cheng opened his eyes, he saw many eyes staring at him. Every time he moved, exclamations came one after another in the room.
"Shuanbao, you're finally awake. If anything happens to you, wouldn't it cost me my life?"
"Brother Cheng, wake up! Daddy is so worried about you. If anything happens to you, Daddy will not live any longer."
"Third Master, you're finally awake. The old lady has been missing you and hasn't eaten dinner yet." Feicui took every opportunity to improve Lady Jia's favorability.
The other maids also looked at Jia Cheng with concern, especially those who had neglected their duties today.
The four maids, Hemerocallis, Iris, Red Lotus, and Wisteria, were the first to leave Jia Cheng and were judged to have seriously neglected their duties.
The four of them got into trouble because of their greed. Jia She didn't care whether they were tricked or not, but they were wrong for not taking good care of their master.
Jia She did not beat them with a stick, but slapped their hands and mouths first, and fined them one year's salary. Jia Cheng had to bear the rest of the punishment himself.
Whether it was to show mercy to these maids and not punish them, or to severely punish them and sell them off, Jia She respected Jia Cheng's choice.
Since he had already given these maids to Jia Cheng, he would not interfere too much. He also wanted to train his son to know how to rule his subordinates so that he would not be fooled by the servants in the future.
The three maids, Hibiscus, Narcissus and Qiangwei, were kicked hard by Jia She, but Jia She did not punish them any further. They were just waiting for Jia Cheng to decide their fate.
Mu Mian did not accompany Jia Cheng out today, so she escaped a disaster, but she did not dare to show her pride, after all, her master was still unconscious.
Now that Jia Cheng has woken up, the maids are all waiting for the judgment of fate, each of them looks pale and uneasy.
Honglian, who was young and timid, was so scared that she started crying. She didn't want to leave Rongguo Mansion, nor did she want to leave Master Cheng Sanye.
In Rongguo Mansion, she could eat well and dress warmly, and Master Cheng Sanye was not a difficult master to serve. She always felt that she had done good deeds in her previous life to be able to serve the master.
But her good luck had come to an end. If she hadn't been greedy and had diarrhea, her master wouldn't have fallen into the water. She deserved to die, but even if she died, she wanted to die in Rongguo Mansion and didn't want to be eaten by the refugees outside.
Honglian bit her lip and shed tears silently. The other maids were not much better. They were so scared facing an unknown fate.
Jia Cheng didn’t know what these maids were thinking, but he wasn’t going to drive them away either, as his loyalty talisman couldn’t be wasted.
There is no doubt about the loyalty of these little maids, but their methods are immature. They need to understand the conspiracies and tricks in the inner house on their own, and the loyalty talisman cannot solve them.
Jia Cheng complained to Jia She, who was worried, that he was hungry. Jia She quickly told Qiulan to bring the dinner that had been prepared long ago.
Mrs. Xing had a look of relief on her face as she fed Jia Cheng the meat porridge. Jia She was standing nearby and couldn't snatch the favor from Mrs. Xing, so he could only ask Jia Cheng about his well-being.
Jia Cheng did not feel any discomfort and was in good spirits, after all, he had had enough sleep.
He had just finished half a bowl of porridge when Jia's mother, supported by Yuanyang and Wang Xifeng, came in tremblingly. She stood in front of Jia Cheng's bed, looked at him with concern, and asked softly, "Brother Cheng, are you awake? How are you?"
Jia Cheng struggled to get up and greet Lady Jia, but Lady Jia hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't move. Lie down. You fell into the water and are weak. You don't need to be so polite."
After saying that, she sat down beside Jia Cheng's bed, holding his hand tightly, refusing to let go.
She looked him up and down, and seeing his flushed face and clear eyes, she felt relieved.
Grandmother Jia's eyes were red, and she warned carefully with a choked voice: "Brother Cheng, you must not go to such a dangerous place to play next time. If you go to the river, you must bring more people with you. If something happens to you, how will your grandmother live?"
Her hands were trembling slightly, and Jia Cheng could feel her fear and worry.
Grandmother Jia is not a heartless person, nor is she a fool. She knows clearly who is good to her and who can bring her greater benefits.
Jia Cheng has been dedicated to treating her during this period and his medical skills are very advanced. If Jia Cheng had not been self-taught, Grandmother Jia might still be paralyzed now.
In Grandmother Jia's heart, Jia Baoyu's status gradually declined, and Jia Cheng occupied her heart bit by bit.
In Grandmother Jia's view, her grandson Jia Cheng will have greater fortune. Not to mention his talent for studying, just his superb medical skills will enable him to make many powerful friends in the future.
Grandmother Jia is really worried about Jia Cheng, and she is also really optimistic about Jia Cheng's future potential.
Grandmother Jia touched Jia Cheng's warm little face, as if she was afraid that he would fall into a coma again.
Seeing that Jia's mother's favorability towards him had increased a little, Jia Cheng was satisfied. He nodded obediently and said, "Grandma, I know I was wrong. I will be more careful next time."
After hearing this, Jia's mother forced a smile and said, "My dear child, it is those servants who are not doing their best. You should know that you are the lifeblood of our Jia family. If anything happens to you, our Jia family will have no hope."
When Jia She heard this, he grinned. He had said this to Jia Baoyu before, but now his son had replaced Jia Baoyu as the hope of the Rongguo Mansion.
Jia She was secretly happy, hehe, hehe!
Mrs. Xing also raised her head proudly, her nose in the air. She thought that her son's status in the old lady's heart exceeded that of Baoyu, so she had won over Mrs. Wang once.
Her son is really loved by everyone.
After hearing what Grandmother Jia said, Jia Cheng was moved. It seemed that he was getting further and further on the road to becoming everyone's favorite.
"Grandma, don't worry. I will live well and make our Jia family proud. I will bring honor to you."
Grandmother Jia nodded lovingly and said, "Good boy, grandma believes in you. You should rest well and get well, and then grandma will feel at ease." After that, she checked Jia Cheng's body again, and seeing that there were no wounds, she left with peace of mind.
Jia Cheng looked at Lady Jia's departing back, feeling proud in his heart, thinking that he was indeed everyone's little darling.
He knew how important his position was in Grandmother Jia's heart, and he also knew that he had gradually replaced Jia Baoyu's position.
After Lady Jia left, Jia She snatched the bowl from Lady Xing's hand and fed porridge to Jia Cheng. Seeing his son opening his little mouth and drinking porridge like a little bird, Jia She felt so soft in his heart.
If he were asked to die for Jia Cheng now, he would do so without hesitation. Only after raising a child would he realize how important a child is.
Jia Lian:……
After Jia Cheng finished his meal, it was time to deal with the servants who had failed in their duties. Everyone's face was pale. They would rather be beaten and punished than be sold.
They held their breath, waiting for Jia Cheng to pronounce their fate.
Jia Cheng did not make things too difficult for these people. The servants who had signed the loyalty talisman would not betray him. It was just that they were not experienced enough and were a little stupid.
He felt that he could use these people to establish himself as a kind-hearted person, and there was no need to be too mean.
Jia Cheng looked at Jia She with an embarrassment on his face, "Dad, this time I fell into the water because Keren pushed me from behind, it had nothing to do with Narcissus and the others.
Just punish Shuixian and the others and make them learn the rules from Aunt Xu again. They are still a little immature, but very loyal. Don't make it too difficult for them."
Jia Cheng had a face full of compassion, like a bodhisattva enshrined in a Buddhist temple.
[I feel that this incident was deliberately arranged by Zhou Ruijia, otherwise why would Honglian and the others get stomach upset?
I always felt that she deliberately persuaded them to eat snacks and drink fruit juice just to get them away from me.
But Mrs. Zhou Rui certainly wouldn't dare to plot against me, the young master. Moreover, in order to separate me from the maid, she even used Brother Baoyu. I guess there was someone behind this.
Could it be Second Aunt? But I didn’t offend Second Aunt, why would she want to harm me? It’s really strange, how could the Wang family raise such a bad person, the world is so complicated. ]
Jia Cheng repeated these words in his mind, and then reminded his stupid parents to deal with Mrs. Wang.
He has woken up, and the eldest wife should take revenge and settle grievances.
What's the point of taking care of these servants in your own room? If they are injured, you have to treat them and it delays their work.
Jia She and Mrs. Xing should deal with the culprit.
Before he fell asleep, he knew that Jia She had beaten Zhou Rui's wife, but that was not enough. He wanted to make Mrs. Wang suffer a little, otherwise his suffering would be in vain.
Although he was the one who took the initiative to fall into the trap and made Mrs. Wang's plan succeed, she still had to pay the price for doing bad things.
And the Wang family will also have to pay a price to compensate him.
He has already shown his supernatural powers in front of Wang Ziteng, and now it all depends on Wang Ziteng's actions.
He hoped that this scheming villain would not let him down. He really wanted to meet the royal family as soon as possible.
Jia She and Madam Xing heard what Jia Cheng was thinking. Jia She cursed himself for being too soft-hearted and not beating Zhou Rui's wife to death directly.
What's more, in order to save face for Lady Wang, he only scolded her and did not even hit her.
The more Jia She thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. He took Li Meng directly to the area where the servants lived, found Zhou Rui's family, and then ordered Li Meng to beat Zhou Rui to death while she was recuperating in bed.
Zhou Ruijia was in pain all over, and when Li Meng pulled her off the bed, she screamed in fear, "What are you doing? It hurts so much, ouch ouch."
Jia She sneered behind Li Meng, "You deserve to be in pain to death."
When Zhou Ruijia heard Jia She's voice, she trembled with fear. Jia She did not hold back when he kicked her, and her heart ached badly in her chest.
Zhou Ruijia fell to the ground and begged for mercy, "Master, please forgive me. It was my fault that I didn't take good care of Master Cheng. I'm useless. I won't dare to do it again next time."
Jia She snorted coldly, "I think you are deliberately trying to harm Cheng'er. I let you go just now because of an outsider. You don't think you can get away with it, do you?
When you do bad things, you must be prepared to die. If you dare to touch my vitals, you are seeking death."
Jia She did not kick Zhou Rui's wife to death on the spot because people from Ningguo Mansion, Wang Family, and Shi Family were also present at the time, and it would be ugly to see blood.
Now that the party is over and Cheng Ge'er has woken up, it's time for him to settle accounts with these people.
Jia She didn't listen to Zhou Ruijia's explanation at all, and directly ordered Li Meng to drag Zhou Ruijia to the yard and beat her with a stick.
Zhou Rui wanted to stop him, but looking at Jia She's dark face, he took a step back cowardly, pretending he didn't exist.
You can find another wife if you lose her, but if you lose your life, it’s gone forever.
Zhou Rui will not give up himself for an old and ugly wife. If his current wife dies, he can still marry a younger one.
While Zhou Rui was daydreaming, Zhou Rui's wife died. Then Jia She glared at the corpse on the ground and left.
He still has to go and settle accounts with Mrs. Wang.
Zhou Rui glanced at his wife who had been with him for more than 20 years and shook his head with some regret. The golden beads that came as a dowry with the second wife were so magnificent back then.
He also went through many trials and tribulations before he finally won the beauty.
Unexpectedly, Jinzhu was beaten to death in the end. It was such a miserable end. That's fate.
Zhou Rui felt a little sympathetic towards his own kind. Now the second wife was gradually losing power, while the first wife was already rising.
I don’t know if one day he will be beaten to death while doing bad things for the second wife.
Zhou Rui sighed and asked the neighbors who were watching to help collect Jinzhu's body.
No matter how you look at it, Jinzhu died for the second wife. He will go and cry for her tomorrow, pray for a good future for himself, and ask for a wife at the same time.
