Aunt Xue of the Red Chamber is not easy to mess with

Before Shengjia arrived in Nanjing, Wei Kewang, the governor of Liangjiang, drove away the people in the main city of Jinling, and the garrison soldiers in the barracks disguised themselves in disguise. This is how the bustling prosperity was formed.

Wang Wan just stayed in the Wang family's mansion, and never went to watch the excitement. The Zhen family built the palace in a solemn and dignified manner. Although it did not look extravagant, it was still full of exquisiteness and ingenuity. It can be seen that some thought was put into it. .

Wang Ziteng returned to the mansion in a hurry on the third day. This was also the first time Wang Wan saw this brother. He was about 30 years old with a beard, handsome features, and his brows were tightly frowned. He was dressed in indigo blue silk. When Chang Shan saw Wang Wan, he subconsciously frowned again, and said, "What is the intention of my younger sister and her brother-in-law making such a fuss?" He felt a little displeased, looked at Wang Wan, and said, "It's just a waiter. It’s just a concubine, if you accept it, you will accept it, and you can threaten your position?”

Wang Wan pursed her lips, and then said aggrievedly: "Why does brother teach sister a lesson as soon as he comes back?" She never thought that Wang Ziteng would be so disregarding her face, but Wang Ziteng is the head of the Wang family after all. , "Brother, have you met your brother-in-law?!"

Wang Ziteng nodded, he was short on time, so naturally he didn't leave any space for his words, his mother was already very angry when she heard that Wang Wan was having a fight with her brother-in-law, and he saw the faint mark on her brother-in-law's face the day before yesterday, but she couldn't speak for her anymore.

Wang Wan blinked, then snorted coldly, and said, "Brother only listens to him, not to my sister's grievances." She didn't believe that Wang Ziteng didn't know what happened, but what he meant now It's obvious that she just wants to calm down and return to Xue's house obediently, to be the head wife.

"Brother, let's not say that your good brother-in-law beat me because of Xia Wan'er, but the rumors about my son's divorce and the scoundrel's finding faults were all written by Xia Wan'er. He has bullied our Wang family so far. Is it possible for my brother to return it?" Do you think it's my sister's fault!" Wang Wan stared closely at Wang Ziteng's face, she just wanted to know what Wang Ziteng's attitude towards her was.

"Okay." Wang Ziteng frowned, and said after a long while: "As the wife of the house, you can't even handle concubines well, and you still have the face to cry." He took a deep breath, eyes in his eyes A little impatient, he said again: "You should also learn from your elder sister. Although she married into the Duke's mansion, she has her parents-in-law to serve, sister-in-law to get along with, and sister-in-law to curry favor with. So leisurely?"

Wang Wan paused in her heart, she understood Wang Ziteng's attitude, and the smile on her face faded, she just said: "What brother said is true." She is just a little unworthy for the original owner, she has always been with her sister. Under the halo, she thought that although she couldn't compare with her sister, at least she was also a daughter of the Wang family. When she was wronged, at least her mother's family was behind her to support her. This gave Wang Wan an illusion that her mother's family was okay Rely on, but now Wang Ziteng's attitude is obviously a little annoyed,

Seeing Wang Wan's silence, Wang Ziteng sighed again, and said earnestly: "You are not young now, you know how your brother-in-law treats you, and you have been married for more than ten years. Let people see it as a joke." He glanced at Wang Wan again, and then sighed: "Don't worry, you won't be able to divorce your wife."

Wang Wan snorted, didn't speak, just stood up and said, "Brother is tired too, let's go to bed earlier." She ignored him as she spoke, turned her head and left, it seemed that she had to think of a way by herself up.

"Stop!" Wang Ziteng slapped the table and said angrily, "Think about what I said, the Wang family cannot produce a divorced woman."

Wang Wan turned around and looked at him again, just nodded, and said: "I'll go back tomorrow." She thought, she understood what Wang Ziteng meant, he was just telling himself that she, Wang Wan, could only be Mrs. Xue's family.

The next day, Xue Cheng came to Wang's house. At least Wang Ziteng had a good attitude towards Xue Cheng. The two stayed in the study for a long time before leaving.

Wang Wan was ashamed and suffocated, but she had no choice but to return to Xue's house. Standing in front of the carriage, she looked at Wang Ziteng and the Feng family standing at the gate again, and gritted her teeth secretly.

Back in Yongfu Hall, Xue Cheng did not leave, but looked at Wang Wan, was silent for a while, and then said: "Brother, he really took great pains for you."

Wang Wan was stunned for a moment, then raised her head to look at Xue Cheng, only to see him rubbing the corners of his eyes, and said: "The previous rumors and local ruffians are not good for Wan'er." He frowned, and said again: "You belong to the Xue family. Housewife, I have always been, although I like Wan'er, I also know what to do and what not to do."

Wang Wan looked at Xue Cheng, her slender eyebrows raised arrogantly, and said, "Are you afraid that I will deal with Xia Wan'er?"

Xue Cheng frowned, and said: "She is just a concubine, there are so many people in Qinyun Pavilion, why bother to make things difficult for her."

Wang Wan didn't want to get entangled with Xue Cheng, so she waved her hand and said, "I don't have that time." She glanced at Xue Cheng again, then raised her eyebrows and said sarcastically, "I don't know if she can survive in Qinyun Pavilion." I don't have a woman who is easy to get along with.

After Xue Cheng left, Wang Wan took off her clothes and fell asleep without any grievances. When she woke up the next day, several aunts came to pay her respects. After waiting for the lady in charge to come, Wang Wan slowly sat up straight, looked at the few people, and said: "I was not at the house earlier, you did a good job, but some people have something that shouldn't happen. This is really irritating." He looked at a young daughter-in-law next to him and said, "Are you Hualian's sister-in-law?"

The daughter-in-law hurried forward, secretly glanced at Xia Wan'er's place, knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "If you go back to your wife, you are a slave."

Wang Wan nodded, pointed to Cai Er's family behind her, and said: "I still like the food made by Cai Er's family, you can go back today." He waved his hand and said: "You don't have to feel dissatisfied. If you don't want to go back, I'll send you to the prison directly. Choose yourself."

The daughter-in-law was startled, she knelt down and cried loudly: "What mistake did the servant make, the wife just said it, how can there be such a errand without caring about it."

Wang Wan pointed at Hualian lazily, and said: "What did you do to enter Xue's house? I won't tell you, but I'm saving face for you. Since you are still pestering me like this, don't blame me for being rude." The man tied Hualian, pressed it to the ground, and said, "Huatian, do you know your mistake?"

"I don't know." Hua Lian was anxious, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, Wang Wan didn't hesitate, and said directly: "Since you dare to do it, you have to bear the consequences. When you go home to visit relatives, beg your brother and sister-in-law to spread some gossip. , Am I wrong?" Seeing Hualian's anxious rebuttal, Wang Wan said again: "You don't have to refute, since I dare to say this, there is of course evidence, and it was your bastard who provoked me afterwards Brother's handwriting." As she spoke, Wang Wan glanced at Xia Wan'er again, she lowered her head, did not speak, clasped her hands, and did not appear anxious.

"You used these two things to gain Xia's trust. She wanted to put people in the mansion, and she just recommended her sister-in-law to join the mansion. Taking advantage of Xia's favor, she was directly placed in the kitchen, right? "Wang Wan sat down on the armchair again, then glanced around at the maid who was waiting, and said: "Although I am not at home, I have been the head of the house for so many years, how can I not know anything? "

"Madam, please forgive me!" Hua Lian hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "My aunt ordered this servant to do this."

Only then did Xia raised her head, she still had that noble appearance, but she looked more gentle, looked at Wang Wan, and then smiled and said: "I did it." She was full of confidence, Wang Wan nodded, looked It was Xue Cheng who took care of him.

Wang Wan said: "In this case, Hualian is sold, and her sister-in-law is also kicked out of Xue's house." As soon as the words fell, the women covered their mouths and dragged the two of them out. The fearless Xia family said: "Since you have admitted it, you should be banned for three months and fined half a year."

The several aunts all looked at each other in blank dismay, which was a bit cheaper, and Mrs. Zhang looked at Mrs. Xia with a bit of coldness in her eyes.

Only then did Wang Wan let everyone leave, looking at Xia Wan'er's back, the expression in Wang Wan'er's eyes gradually deepened, although Xia Wan'er did something wrong, Xue Cheng obviously protected her, so she was confident, Xue Cheng gave She has given herself full housekeeping rights, but there is only one request, that is, not to target Xia Wan'er, and Wang Wan naturally wants to give him this face.

It's just...Xia Wan'er is grounded, and Xue Cheng has to go through the entire Qinyun Pavilion to Xia Wan'er's room every day. , and she is generous no matter whether it is a reward or a bribe. It is self-evident where the money comes from.

She wanted to see, even if she didn't take action to deal with Xia Wan'er, if she could survive in this backyard just because of her nobility and contempt for others!

Wang Wan's jewelry still caught the eyes of Concubine Zhen, and the novelty and unique jewelry on the heads of the ladies of the Zhen family all came from this museum of rare treasures, which made the museum of rare treasures even more famous than before, and Jinling City has a face Ladies and gentlemen, all like to come here to order jewelry.

This is also the first time Wang Wan has cooperated with Xue Cheng. He is now leading the Ministry of Internal Affairs to do business, which can be regarded as a business without capital. This makes Wang Wan envious of Xue Cheng's status as an imperial merchant.

The Rare Treasure Museum on Shangbu Street, several rouge and gouache shops, and the restaurant on Gulou Street are all profitable businesses under Wang Wan's name, so she naturally has to take it to heart and pay special attention to it.

She didn't keep the money she earned, but directly took it out and invested it in the rouge and gouache shop, renovated the facade, and specially invited a perfumer to re-mix it. It took more than two months for this busy work.

Not only did Xia Wan'er not feel aggrieved by the punishment of Yueyin's foot restraint, but she also let Xue Cheng stay in her room for two whole months, spending more on food, clothing, antiques and treasures than Wang Wan.
