In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

"Master Lang left Beijing last year, and it has been two years now. Isn't the old lady in the Jia family worried that he hasn't been back for such a long time?" Liu Xianglian wanted to ask where Jia Lang had been, but his thoughts were not pure, so he had to find out in a roundabout way when Jia Lang would come back.

Jia Lian didn't think much about it and told Liu Xianglian directly that when Jia Lang went out, he said he would study for three years.

"I think Lang'er should be back by the time of the imperial examination next spring." Jia Lian was really a little proud of his half-brother Jia Lang. He had always admired Jia Lang and was even afraid of him sometimes. Now that he saw that Liu Xianglian was the same as himself, he naturally felt that they were in harmony.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Brother Liu, have you just returned to Beijing? Why don't we have a drink together and have a good chat?"

Liu Xianglian naturally would not refuse Jia Lian's invitation, and the two of them went to the place of fireworks together.

Today, You Erjie, You Sanjie and You's mother have already moved into Ningguo Mansion and have become involved with Jia Zhen. However, Jia Lian has not yet been framed by Jia Zhen and become the scapegoat.

During this year's New Year, Jia Lang did not return home, and Aunt Li missed him very much. Fortunately, there were only a few months left before the next spring examination. Knowing that Jia Lang would be back by then, Aunt Li felt much more at ease.

In Rong Xi Tang, Jia's grandmother was having a New Year's banquet accompanied by Jia Zheng, Jia She, the first wife, the second wife and the younger generations of the Jia family. At the banquet, Wang Xifeng was very good at getting along with everyone and made Jia's grandmother laugh heartily.

Across the candlelight, Jia's mother squinted her eyes to watch the expressions of the crowd. Jia She drank and stole a glance at the mandarin duck beside him. The first wife looked at Jia She's expression from time to time. The rest of the time she was either eating or watching a play. The second wife kept an eye on Jia Baoyu. As soon as she saw him talking to Lin Daiyu, her face changed. Jia Baoyu took the opportunity to go find Lin Daiyu to play. The two seemed to be in harmony with each other. On the other hand, Jia Tanchun was clever. She stayed beside the second wife to watch her face and interrupted the communication between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu from time to time...

It’s so lively.

But Grandmother Jia knew that the Jia family's money was already stretched, and there would never be such a lively occasion again. If Langge were here, what would the scene be like?

Every time at this time, Grandmother Jia would think of Jia Lang. She placed all her hopes on Jia Lang, as if as long as she thought of Jia Lang, the panic and fear in her heart would disappear.

Soon after the New Year, the emperor passed away. During the period of mourning, marriage, banquets and entertainment were not allowed in the capital. However, some people were too bold and did not take the mourning seriously.

Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian had a disagreement on taking a concubine. Jia Lian met Jia Zhen when he was bored. Jia Zhen was tired of You Erjie and was anxious to get rid of her. He happened to meet Jia Lian and decided to give You Erjie to Jia Lian.

Jia Lian could not resist and not only took You Erjie in, but also bought a house for her and raised her. However, You Erjie's younger sister You Sanjie was different. Although she had an old relationship with Jia Zhen, she was unwilling to be Jia Zhen's mistress and said that she already had a lover.

In order to get rid of You Sanjie, Jia Zhen asked Jia Lian to be a matchmaker for You Sanjie and asked who You Sanjie loved. You Sanjie said that her lover was Liu Xianglian.

Isn't this a coincidence? In order to get news about Jia Lang as soon as possible, Liu Xianglian has been in frequent contact with Jia Lian during this period. Jia Lian thinks that he has a close relationship with Liu Xianglian. Now that Third Sister You is interested, it will be easy for him to find Liu Xianglian to act as a matchmaker.

"Brother Liu, I have a good marriage proposal to tell you about."

Liu Xianglian was a little surprised after hearing what Jia Lian said. Although he already had Jia Lang in his heart, for people like them, there was no problem in getting married, having children, and then becoming sworn brothers with the person they loved, so he did not refuse.

But after Jia Lian mentioned the candidates, Liu Xianglian was somewhat reluctant. He returned to Beijing earlier in this life and paid more attention to the news of the Jia Mansion because of Jia Lang, and he did not miss the news of the Ningguo Mansion.

The three of them, mother and daughter of the You family, entered the Ningguo Mansion. Liu Xianglian naturally knew that the second and third sisters of the You family had an affair with Jia Zhen. Seeing that Jia Lian seemed to be deceived, he had to remind him tactfully and rejected the marriage proposal.

"What do you mean Second Sister You and Third Sister You have an affair with Jia Zhen? Where did this news come from?"

Jia Lian never expected that his kindness would lead to him hearing such news. Seeing that Jia Lian really didn't know, Liu Xianglian had no choice but to tell Jia Lian all the rumors in the capital.

Jia Lian didn't expect that he would pick up Jia Zhen's old shoe. He felt a little uncomfortable for a moment. He really liked You Erjie and wanted her to give him a son and then force Wang Xifeng to agree.

"Thank you Brother Liu for telling me this. I was careless about today's marriage. I hope Brother Liu will forgive me."

After parting with Liu Xianglian, Jia Lian walked towards the house he had bought for You Erjie with mixed feelings. Coincidentally, Jia Zhen was also there when he arrived. Jia Lian caught the adultery with his own eyes and was stunned.

Jia Zhen and You Erjie, who were caught cheating, were also a little embarrassed. To Jia Zhen, she was just a woman, how could she hurt the friendship between them as brothers?

But he didn't know that Jia Lian really wanted to marry You Erjie. At first, he felt sorry for You Erjie because she had to live under someone else's roof and had no choice. But now that he saw the truth, he realized that he had become a fool.

"Humph, it's true that actors are heartless and bitches are disloyal."

"It's really hard for you to play tricks with me for so long." In Jia Lian's eyes, Jia Zhen was the actor who deceived him into taking over You Erjie, and You Erjie was the bitch who was obviously unclean but pretended to be a good woman.

Without waiting for Jia Zhen to explain, Jia Lian left angrily. When he reached the door, he happened to meet Third Sister You who came to ask about marriage. Jia Lian sneered and said, "Brother Liu has long known that Third Sister You had an affair with my elder brother Zhen. How could she be willing to be a coward like me?"

"An unclean bitch wants to get married, bah!"

In this life, because of Liu Xianglian's early return to Beijing, Jia Lian learned about the affair between Jia Zhen and You Erjie. In this life, Jia Lian, due to Jia Lang's advice, lived a good life with Wang Xifeng for two more years in order to have a son, which reduced his involvement in pursuing women.

But in the end, she still fell into Jia Zhen's hands. Jia Lian did not want to be a cuckold, so after discovering the affair between You Erjie and Jia Zhen, he quickly took back the house. As a result, Jia Lian was spared the charge of marrying a second wife during the period of national mourning.

After being scolded by Jia Lian in the house, Third Sister You collapsed to the ground. She wanted to get rid of her current situation and did not want to become a man's plaything like Second Sister You, but she did not expect that her reputation would be completely ruined.

With no hope of getting married, Third Sister You suddenly lost hope in life and swallowed gold to commit suicide at night. In the end, Third Sister You could not escape the fate of her previous life and ended up committing suicide.

After Jia Zhen's conspiracy was exposed by Jia Lian, he felt embarrassed. In addition, it was because of him that Third Sister You lost her life. In the end, he had to take Second Sister You into his house.
