Therefore, just halfway into the village, a servant informed Jia Zheng, and Jia Zheng led several people out to pick up Xie Yu.

Xie Yu was not surprised when Jia Zheng came out, but when he saw the people with Jia Zheng, Xie Yu was a little surprised.

Since the fall of the Zhen family in Jiangnan, which was closely related to them, the next person to fall was the Shi family among the four major families.

Then came the Jia family, then the Xue family, and the Wang family also fell just after the Chinese New Year.

Or because in the case of the Jia family, for the Xue family and Wang family, the emperor just ransacked their homes and locked up the Xue family and Wang family, unless they were found out and had to be dealt with.

Most of them were "tolerant" and demoted to common people, leaving them to fend for themselves.

Come to think of it, if you don’t want to be provided with food (prison food), let’s live in (cell)!

After all, since the over-seventy-year-old Emperor lost his eyesight, could not see, and was not in good health, the emperor's authority became more and more powerful.

The "mean and ungrateful" emperor was a lover of "ranching families and exterminating families", so his cell was never empty.

Those who have not committed too many crimes can come out directly after paying the "criminal settlement money". This can be said to be "special handling".

But these people came out, but they were penniless. In addition, there were "misfortunes" in their lives, so it is reasonable for most of their former friends to immediately change their faces and "cut off the friendship."

Even if the married daughter is given some "dowry" subsidies, it is still a drop in the bucket. After all, because of the house confiscation, most husbands' families prohibit the daughter from contacting her natal family, and some are even ruthless enough to give her a divorce certificate.

They "accidentally" learned that Jia Zheng had a place to stay in Zhuangzi. They had no food or accommodation, so they naturally came to seek refuge.

It turns out that the four major families are related to each other and are all relatives. Jia Zheng could not refuse because of his face.

Soon, in just a few days, the original Jia family of 100 members expanded to the "four major families" of more than 300 members.

Most of these people are used to being superior to others, so they find someone to "serve" them in this village. As for the matter of paying wages, it is naturally a matter for the master and the Jia family.

In the past, this was the custom for the four big families to visit each other. For example, Jia Mu once gave Xue Baochai, Xue Baoqin, Xing Xiuyan, and the Li sisters the same treatment as Lin Daiyu in the spring period.

But that was a time when there was no shortage of glory, this time...

Fortunately, there is still no shortage of farm grain and turnips and radishes in the regular season. In addition, in the name of keeping filial piety for the old lady Jia Mu, the diet is clean and vegetarian.

This place is originally a wasteland, but the land is vast and sparsely populated. The village is large enough, and it can be considered as housing, food, drink and clothing for a while. Of course, for people who are used to enjoying it, they can only tolerate two meals at most.

Then..., then the small domestic animals such as chickens, ducks, geese, and even the small domestic dogs that Zhuangzi and Xie Yu originally gathered in the house of the homeless Sangu "disappeared" unconsciously.

Someone reported it to Jia Zheng. Jia Zheng naturally understood what was going on. However, due to the favor of his relatives and his lack of IQ, he didn't know how to deal with it except for secretly subsidizing some.

As for the housekeeper, Xue Baochai is just a junior, telling others how to behave, and others telling you the rules. What you say and what you say is how it was back then.

Tell them the rules, and they will show off their face without hesitation. Xue Baochai also had a lot of headaches from many relatives who relied on their elders and showed off.

Even if she went to her mother, Aunt Xue, to "ask for advice", she had no idea and had to leave, especially when these relatives suddenly remembered the "old way" to settle the accounts.

Xue Baochai, who had no books to read and was very understanding of people, could only watch the money in his account getting less and less, and he had no choice but to do anything.

It is true that pitiable people must be hateful, just like the Eight Banners uncles after the Revolution of 1911. They can't do anything, spend money to enjoy the first place, some have no tomorrow, and many starve to death in the end.

Those who really have some ability and can find a job for themselves are the subordinates who were not taken seriously in the past, but they naturally know what kind of temper this main lineage man is and have left long ago.

Only these "useless" people are left, and in the name of relatives and favors, the Jia family is "extinct".

Although Xie Yu is not very smart, he can feel it from Jia Zheng's attitude and tone.

These relatives actually understand that they are incompetent and cannot support themselves, but with no other income, they can only "die" and live in the Jia family.

But I have too many problems. Although I only said before I came that I could have food, food, and a kennel, the Jia family couldn't really do that because of their feelings.

Ask people to bring the things they bring to the kitchen.

I seem to hear the sound of swallowing saliva!

There is a saying that "If your heart reaches God's knowledge, it will be eaten by others!"

It means that there is respect in the heart, and gods and immortals can know that the food offered is ultimately meant for people to eat.

These good things ended up in their mouths. They didn't go to the countryside, they didn't suffer, they didn't know what oil and water meant.

Forget it, don’t worry about this for now!
