When everyone in Rongxi Hall learned that Jia Baoyu was among the people personally ordered by the Holy Emperor, they were all shocked.

They felt as if the sky was falling.

This would cost the life of Jia's family.

Who wouldn't? Knowing that Jia Baoyu was the old lady's favorite, he sent him to the border to defend against the enemy.

It was freezing cold there, and he didn't have enough food or clothing to keep him warm. It was like suffering. He was not as comfortable as staying in Jia's mansion.

Moreover, the place was full of swords and swords. It’s all a crisis.

I heard that the Jin people are one for ten, killing people like hemp.

Baoyu has never practiced martial arts. Can he come back after going to that place?

When he thought of this, Mrs. Wang and others said anxiously:

"Old lady, what should I do about this matter?"

"Baoyu was born to study and test for fame. How could he carry a sword and go into battle to kill the enemy? Wouldn't this cost his life?"

"Baoyu is the old lady's darling. If she really goes to the border, you will have to worry about her day and night. I'm sorry to bother you."

"Old lady, why don't you beg for mercy and see if you can save the jade and go to someone else?"

Mother Jia looked at Wang Xifeng:

"What else did the palace say? Can someone else go?"

"Back to the old lady, the palace has said that it is okay to change people, but each person will need fifty thousand taels of silver."

When she said this, Wang Xifeng's heart was bleeding, because she knew that Jia Mu wanted to Jia Baoyu would definitely agree without hesitation.

As expected,

Jia Mu immediately said firmly:

"Immediately reply to the palace and replace the precious jade."

"Old lady, let's replace one person or both."

Everyone looked at Jia's mother.

In Jia Zhu's family, only Li Wan and her son depended on each other.

If Jia Lan was transferred to the border again, if anything happened, How could Li Wan survive?

Jia Mu pondered for a moment and then looked at Wang Xifeng:

"How much money is there in the house?"

"Old lady, Baoyu costs 50,000 taels per person. We can save money by eating less and spending less on weekdays. However, the Ningguo Mansion in the west has to recruit brother Zhen away. I am afraid they will also come to borrow money. The mansion is really I can't bring out so much at once,"

Jia Mu sighed after hearing this:

"Alas, Lan'er is really a miserable child. She has lost her father, and now she has to go to the border. Girl Feng, if your sister-in-law Zhu is in trouble in the future, you must help her more."

Wang Xifeng quickly bowed and said:

"Yes, please rest assured, old lady, I will not let Sister Zhu suffer any injustice, but who should I choose to go to the border for Brother Bao?" As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the Rongxi Hall frowned in thought.

They all understood that no matter who went to the border, it would be in danger, and they might not be able to come back. No one wanted to die.

Only Mrs. Wang looked calm, and her son was safe anyway.

Just as everyone was thinking about the suitable candidate When,

Mrs. Xing said:

"I think Brother Cong is good. As the saying goes, he has a family. He has just gotten married and has a family. Naturally, he will have a lot of experience. He will go to the border to earn some military merits and come back. Then he will have a few children with Miss Lin. He is also very satisfied, why not let him go to the border instead of Baoyu?" As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes focused on Jia Cong, everyone's eyes were different,

Lin Daiyu was a little happy, if Mr. Cong After going to the border, I no longer had to worry about consummating the marriage with him, nor did I have to face him all day long.

Jia She and Mrs. Xing looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts.

Jia Baoyu was the old lady's favorite grandson. , if Jia Cong goes to the border in his place, and Jia Cong is the child of both of them, it may be able to change the status of the two of them in the mind of Jia Mu and make her look up to her. This is a good idea.

As for the rest of Jia Zheng, because of their relationship with Jia Baoyu, it was hard to say anything.

The old lady would naturally arrange everything.

Jia's mother didn't say anything, but

Wang Xifeng next to her already understood:

"Brother Cong, you can be willing to go to the border to kill the enemy and perform meritorious service. Maybe you can also be granted the title of marquis and prime minister like your ancestors, shine on the lintel, and restore the glory of our Jia family. Then Sister Lin will treat you differently."

""I don't want to."

Although there is an enemy-killing upgrade system, Jia Cong already has plans to join the army, but it is impossible to get Jia's family so easily.

Jia Cong's rejection was also expected by everyone, bang~

Jia She suddenly said He slapped the table and scolded:

"There is no reason for you to disagree with this matter. As a member of the Jia family, you have been protected and cultivated by the Jia family over the years. You should contribute to the Jia family now."

"I don’t agree, how can you still kidnap me?"

Seeing that Jia Cong dared to talk back to him, Jia She felt that his father’s face had been completely lost, and just when he was about to step forward to take action,

Wang Xifeng on the side said quickly:

"Brother Cong, you are still young and have not considered the problem carefully enough. You should not only think about yourself, but also think more about other people. If you can kill a few golden men on the battlefield and make military exploits, you will be able to return with glory. When we get to Jia's house, even Sister Lin and the second girl can follow suit, right?"

Jia

Cong suddenly raised his head and looked at Wang Xifeng, who was smiling all over his face. He only felt a chill on his back.

He really agreed with the saying that beauty has a snake-hearted heart.

This The woman actually dared to threaten her with Jia Yingchun.

Although she had no feelings for Jia Yingchun, she was her original sister after all, and she was very good to him. There was no way she could just watch her get implicated by him. He was going to join the army anyway. , why not just go with the flow and accept it,

"Okay, I can promise you to go to the border in place of Jia Baoyu, but I also have my conditions. If you don’t agree, I won’t go,"

Wang Xifeng said with a hint of satisfaction in her phoenix eyes:

"Brother Cong, say,"

"I want to sever ties with the Jia family and have nothing to do with him from now on."

"What did you say!"

Jia She was furious, and the others were also shocked.
