Chapter 96 Baochai: I Understand You
Jia Cong was silent for a long while, and then he said in a dry voice, "Second Brother Bao, even though my hands are covered in blood, I have never hurt my brothers and sisters in the slightest!"
After saying this, Jia Cong's face suddenly turned cold, "Teng Wu, drag him out and behead him!"
After he finished speaking, Jia Cong ignored him and strode out of the yard.
Xiao Que'er and Xiang Ling hurriedly chased after him. Qingwen's pretty face was stern, "Second Master Bao is so majestic."
After saying that, he trotted after him!
"Second brother, why do you say that about third brother? Third brother did this with some harsh means, but wasn't it to vent our anger and to prevent us from being bullied?" Xiangyun said angrily.
Baochai looked at Jia Cong who left and felt heartbroken, but she was also furious with Baoyu.
"Baoyu, anyone can say such words, but we cannot say them, and we have no right to say them! Brother Cong would not be afraid even if he faced thousands of troops, but your few words hurt his heart! Baoyu, you are wrong today!"
After saying that, Baochai took her maid and left!
Baoyu looked at Qingwen, Xiangyun and Baochai, who were all scolding him for Jia Cong, and the other sisters were looking at him with dissatisfaction, and he immediately became hysterical.
"Why do you treat me like this? It's just because the third brother Cong was conferred the title, and everything is fine. I just said one word, and it's completely wrong! I don't want this thing anymore!" As he said this, he pulled the jade from his chest and threw it down.
Yingchun was still thinking about Jia Cong's departing back, Tanchun's face was full of bitterness, Xichun was at a loss holding the hands of her two sisters, Xiangyun still stood with her hands on her waist and glared at Baoyu, Daiyu opened her mouth but said nothing in the end.
Xiren and the maids around Baoyu rushed to grab the fallen jade. Fortunately, the jade was somewhat spiritual, so it was not hurt despite the fall of Baoyu.
Baoyu pushed Xiren away and left. Xiren was anxious and looked at the sisters and said, "Girls, you don't know the second master's temper, how can you argue like this? If something goes wrong, what should we do!"
After saying that, he hurriedly chased after him.
During this chaotic time, the bloodstains in the yard had already been skillfully cleaned up by the personal soldiers, and except for the faint smell of blood, the yard had returned to its original state.
Yuanyang, who watched the whole show, was worried about Jia Cong and thought with a wry smile, "The old lady said that it would be good if there was no trouble. I don't know if this scene can be considered a trouble..."
Back in the courtyard, Xiao Que'er held Jia Cong's hand tightly and said loyally, "Master, from now on, Xiao Que'er will ignore Master Bao, and will not let Xiao Jixiang and the others pay attention to her either!"
Jia Cong smiled and stroked Xiao Que'er's head, "Haha, this is not allowed. Brother Bao is also your master, how can you be impolite?"
This is not because Jia Cong is a saintly person, but there are some words he can say and some things he can do, but as a maid he cannot do that.
To put it bluntly, if you lose etiquette, you deserve to be punished by your master. He can protect you, but some rules are rules and cannot be violated. However, I think after today, there won't be many blind people.
Today's incident was indeed a bit harsh, but the servants of the Jia family... in troubled times, severe punishments should be used. If they are not punished harshly, there will be no effect. Since he wants to establish his authority, Jia Cong does not care about a few lives.
As for whether Wang Zhuer was innocent, there were many innocent people in the world, so it didn't matter if he was killed! Moreover, how could we leave a hidden danger after killing Nanny Wang and Wang Zhu's family? If something happened in the future, it would be too late to regret it.
Therefore, when Jia Cong broke Nanny Wang's arm, the fate of this family was almost doomed.
"Hello Miss Bao!"
As they were talking, Baochai led the maid in.
Jia Cong smiled and led Baochai to sit down, then said with a smile, "Sister Bao, you are not here to blame me for punishing you too harshly, are you?"
Baochai shook her head, and her eyes were full of tears as she looked at Jia Cong. She didn't care about the little maids around her, and reached out to grab Jia Cong's hand, "Cong'er, I understand you! Even if no one in the world understands you, I still understand you!"
A warm feeling surged through Jia Cong's heart. The words "I understand you" were more useful than any comfort or explanation.
He took Baochai's hand in his palm and said, "Sister Bao understands me, so I am not afraid of facing the whole world!"
The two of them just stared at each other quietly, their own shadows reflected in each other's eyes. At this moment, it was eternity!
All the little maids wisely retreated, and only Ying'er wanted to protect her own girl. However, she was outnumbered and was dragged out by Qingwen and the others.
In the old lady's room, after hearing Yuanyang's report, Wang's face changed drastically, Aunt Xue's face was terrified, and even Xing was a little uneasy.
However, the old lady had seen the world after all, and although she felt sorry for Baoyu, she also knew that Baoyu should not have said what he said.
No matter how bad it is, you shouldn't say it in front of so many people! Just as Jia Cong said, even if he killed so many people, it was for his own brothers and sisters. Others can say it, but if his own people say it, it's called betrayal!
Coming back to her senses, the old lady glanced at everyone, then said calmly, "Now do you know what Cong-ge'er is doing?"
To say that the old lady was really tired of facing this family! Especially the second eldest family, they were still thinking about playing tricks on Jia Cong. They had no idea what kind of state of mind a general who could fight against thousands of troops and kill decisively was in. How could such a person be easily controlled?
If she is not careful, she will hurt herself. This is why she has always been kind to Jia Cong.
"Although Cong Ge'er is a little fierce, he has good intentions. You should stop talking about this matter. Also, think more about what happened today in the future."
Wang and Xing quickly agreed. Aunt Xue said, "I was really scared when I first heard about this, but if I think about it carefully, it's a good thing. There are powerful people everywhere in the capital. If you don't have strong means, you will be bullied. With Cong's means and his love for his brothers and sisters, the people in the mansion are tougher when they go out, and others dare not bully them casually."
As she spoke, she winked at Wang.
Although she has some other thoughts now, she is still her sister after all! This sister is still unable to see clearly now. If she dares to talk nonsense again, I am afraid that even the old lady will dislike her.
"Isn't that the truth? Look, the masters of various mansions came here the other day. Why? Isn't it because of this grandson? Okay, let's leave it at that. His aunt is free today, so we women can play a few rounds of dominoes together."
Yuanyang hurriedly brought the kang table and dominoes. The old lady was in high spirits and didn't say anything about Baoyu.
