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

Yuan Chun looked a little anxious, Wang Wan didn't speak, she just took a sip of tea, but secretly guessed Yuan Chun's intentions, to be honest, she didn't have a deep relationship with Yuan Chun, she didn't come to Beijing It didn't take long for Yuanchun to enter the palace. Although she was a niece, she hadn't seen her a few times, so how could she have any feelings for her.

Wang Wan didn't speak either, seeing what Yuan Chun meant, she seemed to be hesitating and struggling, not knowing what to do, Wang Wan had to wait for her to think about it.

After a while, Yuan Chun gritted his teeth and said: "Please ask my aunt to go to the Duke's Mansion and bring a message to the old ancestor. Just say that Yuan girl is waiting for her reply, there will be no delay." She bowed her head She turned her head and couldn't see her expression clearly, but Wang Wan could see her nervousness, and she said again: "It's a matter of life and death, and I hope my aunt will go to the Duke's Mansion in person."

Although Wang Wan didn't know the meaning of that sentence, but sometimes knowing too much may not be a good thing, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, it's just a matter of running errands." It would be so simple, she blinked her eyes suspiciously, and said: "Since you have come out of the palace, why don't you go to the mansion to see your ancestors?" You might as well talk to her in person.

Yuan Chun smiled wryly, and said, "Today I'm here to buy something for the princess."

Wang Wan understood that it would be difficult to come out after entering the palace, but fortunately she is only a palace servant now, she has some face in front of the master, so she can come out for a while.

Yuan Chun didn't stay long, and took the latest hairpin from the Qizhen Pavilion when she left, which was also the purpose of her coming out this time.

It is very simple to bring a message to Jia Mu, and there is no inconvenience, but Wang Wan sees Jia Mu's complexion is very bad, she thinks, they must have discussed it before, and her daughter is in the palace, there must be a self-sufficiency. I don't have the contact information of the taller, but why bother to let myself deliver this word.

Wang Wan couldn't figure it out, but seeing Mother Jia's attitude, she seemed to have something important to discuss, so Wang Wan didn't stay long. After coming out of Jia's mansion, she frowned and thought for a while, but she really didn't want to understand what she was doing. What role can it play in it, I have to give up.

After returning to Xue's house, the little girl came to report, "Madam, Mr. Cui is here, and he is in the study. The master asked his wife to go to the study when she comes back."

Wang Wan was taken aback, brushed her hair, frowned and said, "When did you come?"

"It's been a while." The little girl said with a smile.

Wang Wan waved her hand. After the little girl left, she asked someone to prepare some snacks and went to the study. It happened that Xue Cheng was taking Pan'er and talking and laughing with Cui Ziyan. He smiled and said: "But I'm unlucky, I'm going out today, and I'm going to apologize to my husband." While talking, he went to Xue Cheng and sat down.

Cui Ziyan smiled, waved his hands and said, "It's not in the way." He glanced at Xue Cheng and said, "If you hadn't gone to Jia's house today, I wouldn't have come."

Wang Wan frowned subconsciously, but soon relaxed, and asked tentatively: "What does the master know?" Could it be because of the sentence Yuan Chun asked her to bring?

Cui Ziyan, however, shook his head and sighed, "I've been used by others and I don't even know it, that's just like you."

Wang Wan froze, twitched the corners of her mouth, looked at Xue Cheng wonderingly, and said strangely: "Used? Who has I been used?" Recently, she only brought a few words for Yuan Chun, and quickly responded: "You're talking about Yuan Chun?" Then he smiled and said, "I just gave her a message to Yuan girl, but I don't know anything, how can I use it?"

Cui Ziyan looked at her and smiled, "But it's not a big deal, so don't worry about it."

Wang Wan rolled her eyes, immediately relaxed, and said, "Then you came here today to scare me."

Xue Cheng just sat on the edge, and after hearing this, he said to his son: "Pan'er, go out and play by yourself." He patted his arm and signaled him to leave, Xue Pan looked at the crowd suspiciously, Only then did I leave.

Seeing Wang Wan's ignorance, Cui Ziyan couldn't help laughing angrily: "It doesn't matter what the Jia family girl asked you to bring, she just did it for others to see."

"What's going on?" Wang Wan was a little confused, did it for others to see, who did it for?

Only then did Cui Ziyan speak slowly: "The Jia family has always supported Lao Qiansui before, and you are aware of this. No one in Beijing is aware of such high-profile actions." He said with a smile, Seemingly disdainful, Wang Wan didn't speak, only heard Cui Ziyan say again: "It's just that not long ago, the eldest girl of the Jia family went to Qifeng Palace to talk to the empress about something, which can be regarded as her sincerity. "

Wang Wan's eyes widened in astonishment, Cui Ziyan looked at him, sneered, and said, "It's just a big matter, and the depth of the involvement is beyond the expectation of even the prince." He narrowed his eyes and didn't say anything , After a moment of silence, he said: "Therefore, I originally wanted to test it, but I didn't expect that she would go out to find you directly. In this way, she can't do this."

"Wait, wait!" Wang Wan frowned, quickly interrupted him, and said, "Although I don't understand what Yuan girl did, but the relationship between me and her can't be changed?"

Cui Ziyan laughed, nodded, and said: "That's the reason, so the prince never thought of asking her to do this." Cui Ziyan shook his head, sneered, and said: "That's what I mean. As the saying goes, you pretend to be smart."

Wang Wan twitched the corner of her mouth, looking at Cui Ziyan's attitude, it seemed that the impact on her should not be too great, so she didn't take it to heart, she knew what she should know, and she didn't have anything to ask about what she shouldn't know interest.

But Wang Wan can roughly guess what Yuan Chun can do, isn't it simple?The so-called surrender is just a good way to say it, or a little bit ugly, but it is not a glorious thing to betray one's master, but since Yuan Chun is like the fourth prince, does it mean that... She is betting right up? !

All of a sudden, Wang Wan felt that a big rock fell to the ground with a thud, and her complexion turned rosy. She has invested a lot of money in the past few years, and this investment in advance will soon be rewarded.

Wang Wan was happy in her heart, and immediately raised her voice: "Tong Hui, go prepare the table, let's have fun today." She stood up and walked out, unable to hide the smile on her face, said : "Go and tell the servants that there are guards left in various places, and other people also have a share."

"Yes! Ma'am." Tong Hui was obviously very happy, and hurriedly said, "I'll go now, my maidservant." After saying that, she asked Lianqiao to wait by Wang Wan's side, and said with a smile: "This girl is clever, and this maidservant brought her up to be a Second-class girl, my wife just tells her to do things."

Wang Wan was in a good mood, nodded, waved her hands and said: "You just go and get busy, I know this girl, she has been pulling the curtain on the door before, her voice is as clear as an oriole."

The little girl's cheeks were a little red, and she looked a little embarrassed and worried.

Qiaozhu and Qiaocui are getting old, and now they are both married. Qiaozhu stayed in Qizhenfang. After all, it is a jewelry shop. The former mother was fired by Wang Wan. Qiaozhu also reassured her, so she stepped forward .

But Qiaocui, returned to her hometown, her hometown has a child relative, a childhood sweetheart, she had no choice but to join Xue's family as a maidservant, after meeting that childhood sweetheart of Qiaocui, Wang Wan gave her a bond of prostitution, Feng The Xue family had nothing else but a lot of money. Wang Wan has always been generous to his servants and was willing to spend money. Therefore, those who serve by Wang Wan's side have always been rushed to come.

After Qiaozhu Qiaocui left, Tongwen and Tonghui became personal big girls. Although they were also used as big girls, there was something missing after all. They were all trained by Qiaozhu, so there is no inconvenience .

The excitement was quite inexplicable, Xue Cheng glanced at Wang Wan, but didn't say much, just let Pan'er sit in front of him, and Baochai snuggled up to Wang Wan, smiling so hard that she couldn't see her teeth. She has been by Wang Wan's side since she was a child, and she also likes to cling to her, even when she goes to the shop, she always follows her. Baochai has been smart since she was a child, and Wang Wan also likes to teach her, so she really loves Baochai more. Baochai can be regarded as a child born by Wang Wan himself.

After all, Xue Pan is a boy, and he gets along with Xue Cheng more often. Whenever he makes mistakes, Xue Cheng never shows mercy. Wang Wan doesn't stop him. Xue Cheng is his father. He knows better than Wang Wan how to teach boys. ,

With well-behaved children and no worries, Wang Wan's life is really good.

Xue Cheng's health is getting worse and worse. Wang Wan has a premonition that he may not be able to hold on any longer. For so many years, he has been reading, practicing calligraphy and raising children every day. She is well-behaved, she keeps supplements and takes good care of herself on weekdays, which is why she has lived for so many more years. Wang Wan seems very calm. Over the years, they are like the most familiar strangers. If nothing happens, they seldom see each other. .

It's good to die, Wang Wan felt sincerely.

The guilt at the beginning has already been completely eliminated day after day, year after year, not to mention, she never felt that she did something wrong.

After all, Xue Cheng still didn't survive the fall of this year. When he was dying, he only left Pan'er in the house. Wang Wan didn't know what they said, and she didn't want to know. She just looked at Baochai's red eye circles and gently I hugged the little girl.

Wang Wan didn't stay in the capital for long, she looked a little numb, after handling Xue Cheng's funeral, she was about to help her coffin back to her hometown, Cui Ziyan came to see her once, but she didn't say much, just brought a few people , Escorted Wang Wan back to Jinling.

"They are all the guards of the palace. The lord is sympathetic, and they are under my command. I can't help you much. Let them follow you, so you can take care of them on the way." Cui Ziyan frowned slightly, and said: "Death cannot be resurrected. My condolences."

Wang Wan looked at her in astonishment, and quickly waved her hands and said, "How can this be done!" The guards are all high-grade, and she can use them wherever she wants, not to mention, Cui Ziyan also needs someone to protect her, so she insisted immediately Said: "No, it's just going back to Jinling, and Pan'er is here..."

"Mother!" Pan'er walked over frowning, glanced at Cui Ziyan, and after saluting, she turned to Wang Wan and said, "It's getting late, we should go too."

Wang Wan nodded, glanced at Cui Ziyan, and said: "I appreciate your kindness, sir, but the place you are in now needs them even more." Then she took Bao girl into the carriage.

Xue Pan pursed his lips when he saw the curtains of the carriage falling, and gave Cui Ziyan his hands before riding away on horseback.

Cui Ziyan looked at the young man sitting on the horse, but frowned slightly. He didn't know if it was his own illusion. He only felt that Pan'er seemed hostile to him, but he shook his head again, thinking that he had just lost his father. It's not surprising that there is some color on the face, so I didn't pay too much attention to it.

He is still very busy now, if what Miss Jia said is true, then it seems that he really can't wait, but that's fine, it's better to be in a hurry, it's easier to make mistakes when you are in a hurry, isn't it, as the saying goes Dogs jumping over the wall in a hurry, most of them are like this.

But Wang Wan, when she returned to Jinling, everyone in her family also received the news, and they all stayed in the Xue family's mansion. After seeing their group, they hurried forward to help.

Although there were many people to help, it has been a month since Xue Cheng was settled properly, and this can be regarded as the dust has settled. Wang Wan stays behind closed doors every day. Less than ten years old, it's time to be playful, but now he has to shoulder the responsibilities of a parent. For a child of his age, it is too cruel.

However, the Xue family belongs to this child, and she will always guard it for him.

The shopkeeper of the Xue family still gave the account book to Wang Wan, which inevitably made everyone feel dissatisfied. A woman, a widowed woman, is not comfortable in the house. The income in the shop has been increased a lot, and everyone has benefited accordingly, but women should do what women should do, this is the truth that everyone knows and understands.

Therefore, the members of the Xue family, headed by Xue Tan, came to the ancestral house in a mighty manner, wanting to get back their rights.

Wang Wan looked very calm, she was sitting in the center of Yongfu Hall, and Pan'er was sitting next to her, because there were so many people, Wang Wan only let Baochai hide behind the screen, and didn't stop her from listening.

Xue Pan looked very angry, his face was flushed, and the veins on his forehead were faintly visible. Wang Wan patted his hand, shook her head and said, "Don't be afraid, it always happens like this." If you want to come to Xuecheng, you will understand Otherwise, he wouldn't try to teach Pan'er as much as possible while he was alive.

Xue Pan nodded, and Wang Wan smiled after seeing the crowd coming in, "What's the matter today, there are quite a few people here." Holding her chin with one hand, she raised her eyebrows and smiled.

Everyone looked at each other, but it was Xue Tan who came forward, bowed his hands to Wang Wan, and said, "Sister-in-law." Seeing Wang Wan nodding, he said, "We are here this time to discuss something with my sister-in-law. .” He glanced at Xue Pan with a dark look in his eyes.

Wang Wan nodded, and only stretched out her hand to ask: "You don't need to be so polite, please speak."
