Chapter 246: Knowing that Guanyuan was sealed, Jia Mu arranged family affairs
After breakfast, Lin Pin'er sat and chatted with Jia's mother. Jia Lian hurried into the room and said, before he could catch his breath:
"Grandma, Guanyuan has been sealed off..."
Grandmother Jia was stunned and wanted to stand up, and Yuanyang beside her hurried forward to help her up.
"Tell me clearly, what is going on?"
Jia Lian was already crying and complaining, "Some people from the Commission for Discipline Inspection came early in the morning, saying that there was suspected corruption and bribery in the garden, as well as illegal money-making and food safety issues. In short, someone immediately sealed off the garden, and my sister-in-law and my father have been taken away..."
Grandmother Jia's standing body sank backwards, and Yuanyang staggered and almost fell. Lin Pin'er, who was sitting behind her, quickly stepped forward to help support her grandmother.
"This is terrible, quickly call Brother Feng!" After exclaiming this, Jia's mother fainted.
The place immediately became a mess. Jia Lian hurried forward to help support Lady Jia. It took the combined efforts of several people to help Lady Jia sit down on the sofa.
Zijuan heard the noise and hurried over to check. She ordered people to cook ginseng soup while pressing the Ren Zhong acupoint for Jia Mu and rubbing her heart and palms. After the ginseng soup was served and she took a few sips of it, Jia Mu slowly opened her eyes.
Lin Pin'er also imitated Zijuan and rubbed her grandmother's chest.
"Good boy, I just couldn't catch my breath. Did it scare you?"
Lin Pin'er shook her head, her little face had already turned pale and her eyes were filled with tears.
Half an hour later, Wang Xifeng arrived, and so did Li Shuirong's people, and soon after, Lawyer Zhen arrived. Everyone was discussing something in the living room, and Jia Lian was the only man running in and out of the Jia family. Xue Wenke also came to help, running in and out to inquire about the news everywhere.
I heard that the tenants in the garden started to make trouble, protesting what would happen if the garden sealed off the houses they rented?
Someone immediately came forward to answer that the above meant that they could continue to rent the house, but the tenants protested that if the garden was closed, there would be no point for them to live here, so there was a disagreement, and a quarrel broke out because it could not be resolved for a while.
Later, it was still Jia's mother who remained calm in the face of danger. She arranged and directed Wang Xifeng to meet certain people and do certain things. She also directed Jia Lian to go out and inquire everywhere.
The meeting was held near the evening.
Grandmother Jia sat on the sofa as steady as a rock, with Lawyer Zhen sitting on her left, and various documents sorted and categorized. On her right sat Wang Xifeng, who was always on the phone, mostly listening to what was said on the other end, only replying occasionally.
After everyone was seated, Grandmother Jia slowly spoke:
"In the afternoon, Feng Ge'er had already sorted out the accounts of Guanyuan with Manager Lai. It is not profitable yet and there are still unpaid loans on the books. So it is impossible to expect them to help us. They may even drag us down.
We will solve the tenants' problems tomorrow. We cannot cause public outrage at this time. We will refund the rent that should be refunded first, and compensate those who are willing to continue living here. The specifics will be discussed by Lawyer Zhen's team. I will pay for all the expenses. The second master has not been involved yet, so there is no need to notify him. He is still in Jingu, and even if he comes back, he cannot solve our problem.
On the other hand, the children who live in the garden should move back to their original residences if they are willing. They should remain the same as before. The children should still be taken care of. This is the basic principle.
Let me get back to my business. After I finish this, I will go back to the south."
As soon as she said this, Jia Lian hurriedly tried to dissuade her, but Grandmother Jia waved her hand at him, signaling him to listen to her finish.
"Every time I got angry, I said I wanted to go back to the South. Do you think I was just being stubborn? Actually, I have wanted to go back for a long time, but you are all happy to live here and have the business of watching the garden.
Last time, when the incident with Zhen Ge'er happened, I had this thought. Now that Guanyuan has been closed, I want to go back even more. I am old and can't stand your tossing and turning. If you are unfilial, you are filial children. It's just that you are unlucky or fell into someone else's trap.
No matter what, I can't intervene again after this time. You guys should just take care of yourselves!"
After saying this, he asked Lawyer Zhen to arrange all matters, and then he took Lin Pin'er back to the inner room.
After entering the bedroom, he took Lin Pin'er's hand and said, "I have another large courtyard in Shanghai, which is a little bigger than yours and also fully equipped. I can take them back to live there. If they are willing to stay in the capital, I will give them my room. This old courtyard can also accommodate them.
As for you, you should go back abroad first. After all, you will have peace and quiet there, and you can study well. "
Just as she said this, Lin Pin'er burst into tears. She threw herself into Grandmother Jia's arms and said, "I'm not going back. I'm staying with my grandmother. They didn't tell me that you were in the hospital last time. I only found out about it when I asked Zijuan because I saw that you didn't eat much. I want to stay with you and take care of you. Wherever you go, I'll go too."
Grandmother Jia patted Lin Pin'er's back and coaxed her: "You have to go back, otherwise you will give up halfway. How can you delay your studies? You are being willful to come back this time. If you are not here to receive the award, it is unreasonable."
Lin Pin'er cried even harder.
"Also, even if you don't go abroad, you will go back to the Central Conservatory of Music to study. You and I are still separated. When you go out, just focus on your studies and don't worry about us. I still need your help with something, so I'm asking for some interest from the money I'm helping you with."
After hearing what Grandmother Jia said, Lin Pin'er stopped crying and asked with a nasal voice, "What can I do to help Grandmother? Just tell me, I will obey you."
Grandmother Jia smiled kindly and said, "I am only taking Yuanyang and Zijuan with me to Shanghai. As for the others who followed me, I don't want to treat them unfairly. If they are willing, arrange for them to continue working in your store. If they are not willing, they can go their separate ways."
Lin Pin'er nodded immediately after hearing this and said, "It's nothing. I'll arrange it right away."
After saying that, she took out her phone and called Wu Qing. She suddenly had a sense of mission. Before, it was Grandmother Jia who helped her with many things, and now she could finally help Grandmother Jia.
While I was on the phone, Yuanyang knocked on the door and came in and said, "Master Baoyu is back! He went to school this morning and someone picked him up after school."
"Then let him in!"
After a while, Jia Baoyu pushed the door open and was very happy to see Lin Pin'er. The two of them couldn't help reminiscing about the past, and then Jia's mother asked him what his plans were.
Jia Baoyu thought for a moment and said, "I would like to go to Shanghai with my ancestors, but I can't delay my studies here for the time being. Now my elder sister has arranged for me to join a newspaper, and I often have to do interviews. I definitely can't go to Shanghai with them, but if I don't go, I will be worried."
