Xichun, the first daughter of the Red Chamber

Jia Lian was already sobbing, "Father...you still have me..."

A trace of sadness appeared on Jia Amnesty's face, he looked at Jia Lian, "Yes, and you, I thought, at least I can protect you..."

Jia Lian, "...Father?"

Jia She turned to look at Wang Xifeng, "Do you still think that you didn't notice the child by accident?"

Wang Xifeng couldn't react anymore, she just looked at Jia Amnesty subconsciously.

"You are young and ignorant, and the maids don't understand these things, so what about the women around you?"

"A few days ago, were the meals specially served in the kitchen delicious?"

Wang Xifeng slumped on the chair, her face was pale, and her lips were trembling crazily.

"Did you guess it?" Jia She said lightly, "At first I couldn't figure out why the Wang family would marry you to Lian'er, a person who was doomed to have no future, but now I understand."

Wang Xifeng watched Jia She's eyes of disgust when he used to look at her gradually change to pity, and she watched his lips open and close.

She heard Jia She said, "I heard that the situation of your natal brother seems to be worse than that of Lian'er, right?"

It's not like, it's the fact that Jia Lian has been educated and literate, managed some affairs, and held power, but Wang Ren only knows how to enjoy himself every day, and he doesn't even recognize many words!

"No... No... This is not true! This is not true! You are lying!" Wang Xifeng screamed loudly, her voice was sharp and hoarse, and the next moment, Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes and passed out.

"Sister Feng!" Seeing Wang Xifeng fainted, Jia Lian subconsciously wanted to step forward to check, but found that she couldn't exert all her strength.

He turned his head to look at Jia She again, only to realize that Yingchun and Xing Shi had also collapsed on the chairs at some point, unable to move.

Jia Lian wanted to talk, wanted to call someone to come, but his mouth was so numb that it seemed to be poured with iron.

Jia Amnesty looked at him, "Don't worry, it's just that the medicine is taking effect."

Jia Amnesty looked at him and smiled, "We should go back after dinner."

Jia Lian suddenly panicked.

go back?

Where are you going?

Jia Amnesty got up, and moved a few wine jars from the side wall.

Because Jia She often drank alcohol on weekdays, wine jars were placed in several places where Jia She often stayed in the East Courtyard.

Jia Amnesty opened the seal of the altar, "The quality of these things is better than those sold in the market outside. Even the palace uses the same specifications."

When the seal of the altar was opened, there was no wine inside.

Jia Lian knew what it was the moment he smelled it.

tung oil.

Jia Lian watched as Jia Amnesty poured tung oil around and blocked the doors and windows with tables and chairs.

Jia Lian just felt crazy!All this is fake!He wants to yell!Or jump up and push Jia Amnesty away, open the door, and escape!

But he couldn't do anything, he could only watch helplessly as Jia She took out a fire pocket from his pocket, blew it up and threw it into the tung oil.

In the brighter firelight, Jia Amnesty walked slowly to sit beside Jia Lian, and then, just as Jia Lian longed for every time he was wronged when he was a child, he reached out and touched his head, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, Lian'er." I'm afraid, father is here."

Wang Xifeng woke up from choking.

The scorching temperature, the soaring flames, the pungent smell, the smoke and dust, and the faint shouts from outside made her think it was just a dream.

But the next moment, the severe cough from her throat made her understand that this was not a dream.

She turned her head to look, and found that Jia Lian was lying on the ground beside her, unconscious.

She wanted to get up to take a look, but she slipped heavily from the chair and fell to the ground.

Originally, her body was still a little weak, but the pain at this time made her feel better.

Jia Amnesty sat beside Jia Lian and looked at her, "I forgot, you are not feeling well and you are not eating enough, you should wake up now."

Jia She looked at her, and then at the others, with a smile on his lips, "It's fine if you wake up, don't be afraid, it will be over soon, let's go home together."

"After you married in, I also saw how well you treated Lian'er. Don't worry, your mother will like you too. When the time comes, our family will get along well."

Wang Xifeng thought everything through in an instant.

Wang Xifeng looked at the flames surrounding them, and bit her lips tightly.

She doesn't want to die.

She supported the chair and slowly stood up, "Father."

She said in a hoarse voice: "I was wrong in the past, and I'm not qualified to persuade you, but I'm sorry, I don't want to die."

"I want to live, I want to live with the second master, and I also want to have a chance to make up for the mistakes I made, so I don't want to die."

Wang Xifeng shouted for help with all her strength, while dragging Jia Lian and the others together, trying to stay away from the fire.

Even the leftover soup on the table was used by her to wet the veil and beat those sparks that jumped over suddenly.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, and Wang Xifeng's eyes began to turn black.

At last the door was opened, and a group of servants ran in, all wet.

The one running in the front was an old man, dirty and thin, with tattered clothes, gray hair, one sleeve was empty, and both legs were limping.

But he ran fast.

He rushed directly in front of Jia She, put Jia She on his body with his only remaining arm, and moved out little by little.

The old man cried in a hoarse voice: "Master, why are you doing such stupid things!"

Jia She's pupils constricted instantly, his lips moved, but no sound came out.

The old man obviously didn't see it, but he seemed to hear it, "Master, you are right, it is Xiaobai, Xiaobai is back!"

Jia Amnesty's eyes turned hot.

He seems to have returned to more than 20 years ago. He heard that Miss Zhang's family was going to offer incense in the temple, so he wanted to meet by chance. He succeeded, but surprised Miss Zhang's carriage, and was almost rushed down the cliff by the horse.

His leg was broken, and Xiaobai walked back slowly with his back on his back. While walking, he smiled and recounted the stupid things he did to pursue Miss Zhang, and finally shook his head and sighed: "Master, tell me, why are you Do something stupid! It would be amazing to marry Miss Zhang like this!"

He became angry from embarrassment, jumped off Xiaobai, walked forward with jumps, and fell to the ground after walking a few steps.

Xiaobai quickly caught up with him, and put him on his back again, "Master, stop making trouble, watch out for your legs! Legs!"

The setting sun shone on them, making him feel warm all over. He lay on Xiaobai's back, thinking that Xiaobai was only one year younger than him, but he looked much more reliable than him.

Xiaobai was still talking about what would happen if his legs were not healed. He listened and became a little scared. He asked Xiaobai in a low voice if his legs would become like that. Xiaobai laughed. He heard Xiaobai Said, "Master, don't be afraid, no matter what happens, Xiaobai is here."

In the sea of ​​fire, the old man noticed the wetness on his shoulders, and subconsciously said to Jia She: "Master, don't be afraid, Xiaobai is here."

When Jia Mu woke up, she immediately asked, "Where is Sheer?! Have you been rescued?"

Before anyone could answer, she wanted to get up, but was quickly stopped by Jia Zheng and Wang, "Mother! Brother is fine! They are fine!"

Mother Jia pushed him away, "Get out of the way! Where's Xi'er? What about others?!"

Jia Zheng was caught off guard, and was suddenly pushed away by Jia's mother. Under the force, he took a few steps back before standing still.

Regardless of the obstruction, Jia Mu was about to go out by herself, and she kept calling for She'er.

Jia Zheng stood there watching for a while, his hands hanging in the sleeves were clenched tightly, and then loosened quickly, with a look of anxiety on his face.

He walked forward a few steps and gently supported Jia Mu, "Mother, don't worry, brother is fine. The doctor is treating him now, and brother will come over later."

Jia's mother stopped in her tracks, subconsciously grabbed Jia Zheng's hand, "Zheng'er, is your eldest brother okay?"

Jia Zheng nodded, "It's really all right, it's just that the smoke has suffocated my throat, it may be uncomfortable for a few days, just take a few medicines and it will be fine."

Jia's mother still didn't want to feel relieved, "Is my throat smoky? Doesn't it make me uncomfortable to eat and drink? How can I drink medicine like this? He refused to take medicine properly since he was a child."

Jia Zheng lowered his head, his eyes were turbulent, and soon calmed down.

He raised his head again, "Mother, don't worry, the elder brother's voice is not serious, but Lian's daughter-in-law and sister Ying, they haven't woken up yet."

Then Mother Jia asked, "Aren't you awake yet? Are they in serious condition?"

Jia Zheng sighed, "Yeah, who would have known that elder brother drugged all of them before he set the fire on fire, sister Ying was frightened yesterday, and suffered so much today, and Lian's daughter-in-law , I heard from the firefighters that if she hadn't tried her best to save herself in the house, Big Brother and the others wouldn't have survived that time."

Mother Jia looked at Jia Zheng, "You said...your elder brother set the fire with his own hands?"

Jia Zheng was silent for a moment before replying, "Yes."

Mother Jia stopped still, staring blankly at the front, finally turned around, and walked back slowly, "Let the elder come over later, I have something to say to him."

Jia Zheng supported Jia Mu to walk back, he could clearly feel Jia Mu's trembling, and the corners of his mouth curved almost invisible, "Yes, mother."

Standing in front of the couch, Wang Shi saw this scene, a trace of sarcasm flashed in her eyes, she took out a handkerchief and put it under her nose, the circles of her eyes instantly turned red.

Wang also stepped forward to support Jia Mu on the other side, "Mother, don't worry, take care of yourself. You fainted just now, and Baoyu was so anxious that she cried."

Jiamu's complexion improved a little, "You must have scared Baoyu today."

There were tears in Wang's eyes, but there was a bit of a smile on his face, "Isn't it? He hurriedly sent someone to invite Wang Taiyi, saying that his medical skills were reliable, and he was used to taking your pulse. Kowtow in front of Bodhisattvas to pray for you, I don’t know where I learned it from.”

Mother Jia sighed, "Good boy."

After walking a few steps, Mother Jia said again: "Where else did he learn it from? It's not from Yuan girl. He was taught by Yuan girl for several years."

Mrs. Wang lowered her head, and a teardrop fell on the ground, "So she is the Yuan girl she learned from? Look at me, I don't even know."

Only then did Jia's mother remember that both Jia Yuanchun and Jia Baoyu were taken away and raised by her at birth.

So Wang is not very familiar with Jia Yuanchun and Jia Baoyu.

Just like how I treated Jia Amnesty back then.

Thinking of this, Jia Mu's heart couldn't help softening, and she looked at Wang Shi with a gentle look, "You..."

Say what?

Tell Wang to stop being so greedy?But she was greedy because of Jia Yuanchun who was in the palace, and now she obediently spit out what she ate.

Tell Wang not to be so vicious?But what the small kitchen did was not enough to make Wang Xifeng slip, at most it made her feel a little uncomfortable. After all, Wang Xifeng was too weak and incompetent!

Punish the Wang family?What about Jia Baoyu and Jia Yuanchun?

Jia Mu sighed, "Let the doctor show Baoyu later."

Mrs. Wang bowed her head respectfully, "Yes, mother."
