The first paparazzi in the Red Chamber

Chapter 38 Chapter 1 Paparazzi

Song Xiguang could guess a little from the name, "Are you planning to come out in the name of the court?"

Jia Amnesty: "I have such an idea. I have to study carefully how to do it. I haven't thought about it myself."

It is obviously unrealistic to compile nationwide notifications like this and write them in "Secrets of Neighbors".The incident of the peace mission is a diplomatic secret between countries, it is very serious, and the authority of "Secrets of Neighbors" is not enough.Moreover, a sudden change in style to issue a national announcement will also appear nondescript and will definitely be criticized by others.

Song Xi promised to let Jia She think it over and let him know that he would help him persuade the emperor later.

Then Jia Lian and Jia Cong also came to visit Song Xi.

Song Xi had already prepared a meeting gift for them, and they all went there contented.

"It's a good day today, the autumn is bright and refreshing, and there is another money-spreading boy at home." Jia She gave Song Xi a sideways look, and sighed helplessly.

Song Xi just smiled and said nothing.

The two then went to the garden of Rongfu.

Looking at the pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, it was very unique. Song Xi felt better and asked when Jia She's birthday was.

Jia Amnesty: "Don't ask this, I don't like birthdays very much."

The deity's birthday is not his birthday, but it's no big deal.In fact, it was his own birthday, and Jia She had never celebrated it grandly before.If you can eat a boiled egg and a bowl of noodles on your birthday, you're done.

"You're a strange person. It doesn't matter if you don't pay attention to the holidays. The same is true for your own birthday. Tell me, what is important to you?" Song Xi asked.

Jia Amnesty immediately replied: "My family and the career I am pursuing."

"Family?" Song Xi raised his eyebrows in surprise. He had also heard a little about the relationship between Jia Amnesty, Jia's mother, and the second wife of Rongfu.

"Of course it's a family that deserves my care." Jia She added.

Song Xi understood and nodded, "I see that your second son is not young anymore, he looks upright, and he is quick to speak and do things. If you don't mind, I have some connections, and I can give him a job in the Shenyue Department, Senglu Find a real job in the company."

"Thank you very much. But I know what kind of personality he is. I'll take the school test first, so don't lose face." Jia She said.

Song Xi smiled, secretly lamenting that Jia Amnesty was too cautious.In fact, in a place like the Kagura Department, even if his son had any evil intentions, he couldn't get much money out of him. If something happened, it would be very easy to settle it.But since Jia Amnesty didn't want it, and he couldn't force it, he didn't mention it.

Jia Amnesty invited Song Xi to have dinner at Rongxi Hall.The two crossed the bridge and walked away towards the front yard.Only then did Ping'er and Hong'er come out from behind the rockery.Ping'er nodded Hong'er's head, and scolded her for not going anywhere, but she came to this place, which made her almost offend the old man with her.

Hong'er held up the handkerchief in her hand and said guiltily: "You can't blame me. As I was walking, there was a gust of evil wind, so I chased after me. Sister Ping'er must come after me, so don't rely on me. It doesn't matter." Hidden in vain, let's see if I hear something important, can I go back and tell your Second Master Lian?"

Ping'er ruthlessly squeezed the little red face, "You bastard, talk nonsense, but you know that there are so many people in this mansion who are the eyes and ears of the elder. It really makes the elder know that we both listened to what he and Mr. Song said, and we were all cheating." Light. Keep your mouth shut!"

Hong'er rubbed her face and hurriedly nodded in agreement.Ping'er warned again and again, and then went.

"It doesn't matter what you do. My heart melts when I hear Master Song's voice. It looks even better, but unfortunately I don't have the guts to look closely. If there is such a master who asks me to serve, I would rather not eat for the rest of my life and just rely on my eyes work." Hong'er held her flushed face in both hands, and after a little heart pounding, she left without getting enough.

……

Jia Lian took out the mutton fat jade pendant he had just obtained and showed it to Wang Xifeng.Seeing the fineness of the jade pendant, Wang Xifeng snatched it into his hand with a smile, stroked it carefully a few times, "It's better than me——"

Wang Xifeng wanted to say that it was better than the one her uncle originally wore, but when she got to the point of speaking, she realized that Wang Ziteng was a taboo, so she quickly changed her mind.

"Better than anything I've seen before."

"Naturally, I don't care about Master Song's status. I'm a dignified uncle!" Jia Lian reluctantly took the jade pendant back from Wang Xifeng's hands, and said that the one in Jia Cong's hand was also good, although it was not as good as his. Yes, but it is also something that cannot be found in the back building.

Wang Xifeng sneered: "Don't have any crooked thoughts, master, and today's teachings to him are more concerned about you."

"No matter what, he can still beat me?" A trace of disdain flashed across Jia Lian's face, and he was complacently lying on the couch with his head up, dangling his legs, and humming the scene of causing trouble in the Heavenly Palace.

Seeing Ping'er come in, Wang Xifeng pointed at Jia Lian, "You look so insolent."

"Second Master got something good from Mr. Song, so it's natural." Ping'er laughed.

Wang Xifeng didn't react right, and squinted at Ping'er: "How do you know this?"

Ping'er was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained that he had heard it.

"Your grandma still has brains, so she's not confused. The second master just came back and told me about it, but it didn't get out. How could you know about it just now when you were out on errands. Please tell me, what's going on?" Wang Xifeng scolded her.

Ping'er hurriedly made amends, and told Wang Xifeng how he had eavesdropped on the conversation between the elder and Mr. Song in the garden.

When Jia Lian heard that Mr. Song was going to arrange an official for him, he immediately became energetic and beaming, wishing to praise Mr. Song to the sky.Then he heard that his father had rejected such a good thing, and his face immediately collapsed.

"Master Song is willing to arrange a good job for me, why should he refuse me!" Jia Lian was a little angry, and he didn't care about the jade pendant in his hand, so he sat up and beat the Arhat couch hard.

Wang Xifeng also felt regretful, after all, her husband was promising, and she also had a bright face.But now seeing Jia Lian's panic-stricken look, she couldn't help laughing.

Jia Lian said angrily: "What are you laughing at? I'm so unlucky, but you are proud of yourself. You are not like my wife, like an enemy. Don't forget that I protected you once when I was in front of the master."

"Yes, yes, I owe you my whole life for that matter. I have been thinking about being grateful, so stop talking about it."

Wang Xifeng was really moved by Jia Lian's pleading for her.But if Jia Lian keeps talking about it, she will get tired of hearing it.For this matter, she has to be grateful to Jia Lian and worship Jia Lian all her life?

Wang Xifeng was a little displeased, turned her head away, ignored Jia Lian, but told Ping'er a few things, asking her to pass on the message.

Jia Lian sat in the same place and pondered for a while, naturally he was reluctant to part with such a good opportunity.He asked someone to find out if Mr. Song was gone, and when he heard that Mr. Song was still there, hope lit up in his eyes, and he got up immediately intending to intercede with the Elder Master.

Wang Xifeng stopped him and asked him where he was going.

"Your husband is going to seek the face of the magistrate, are you still stopping here?" Jia Lian glared at her.

Wang Xifeng: "If you become an official, I will also look good with you. Would you be unwilling to take me? But now I have to persuade you to think about it. Why did our master reject Mr. Song? Have you ever thought about the reason? "

Jia Lian shook his head.

Wang Xifeng said again: "You just went there rashly at this moment. According to the master's current temper, as long as he doesn't say yes, do you think Mr. Song will leave that official to you?"

Jia Lian thought for a while, then shook his head reluctantly.

"The most important thing now is not to ask for an official, but you should behave well and learn to be good, so that the master thinks you are a reliable person. So what do you want?" Seeing that Jia Lian was still a little bit unconvinced, Wang Xifeng carefully argued with him , "In spring, the master intentionally asked you to work with him, what did you say?"

Jia Lian pursed her lips, "I was perfunctory. I was eating, drinking, having fun and messing around in front of him. Naturally, I didn't want to mess with him and make your aunt and old lady dislike me later. Whoever thought of it, the master changed it. Woolen cloth."

"Then it's not too late for you to change your attitude. Go obediently and please him. But don't put any thought into asking him for an official position, as if you can get it. Mr. Song is willing to give you an official position. It's not the old man's who is looking for face. At this time, if you are not smart, you will really be worthless." Wang Xifeng said.

Jia Lian looked at Wang Xifeng and thought about it in his heart. This is indeed the truth.Then he sighed regretfully, and sat down back to his original position.After he calmed down, he regained his energy, thinking about what he should do to please the master.

"Our master doesn't drink anymore and doesn't play with women. What else do you think he likes?"

Wang Xifeng: "I don't know if you've heard, but our master opened a bookstore on Tongtai Street called Neighborhood Xuan. The business is good, and "Secrets of Neighborhood" is sold in this shop!"

"I know. When I first heard the news, I was taken aback. I couldn't believe it. Later, I heard from Brother Zhen from the East Mansion that it was because of his wife's death that the master had something to do with those people. I heard that The way they meet is quite mysterious, they all wear masks." Jia Lian laughed as he recalled.

"I see that the master is very interested in this shop and often goes there. The servants Zhumao, Wanfu, Erzhuzi, and a newcomer named Heizhu also often go there. Don't be afraid of Erye's jokes. When I was competing with the master for a while, I secretly asked Wang Er to stay with the master for a while. Do you know how much profit this shop makes in January?"

"Six to seven hundred taels of silver is considered the best business." Jia Lian sighed.

Wang Xifeng raised four fingers, "More than 4000 taels!"

"Four thousand?" Jia Lian opened his mouth wide open in surprise, then walked up to Wang Xifeng and sat down, looked at her seriously and said, "Are you serious?"

"The few people in front of the master are meticulous in their affairs and very cautious in their words. It was very easy for Wanger to eavesdrop on this bit of news. Although I didn't listen carefully for the reasons, but the amount of 4000 taels is definitely not wrong. It is clear, It's absolutely true!" Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lian seriously.

Jia Lian sighed unceasingly, and his heart was ready to move. He really regretted not following the master's suggestion and following him.He raised his hand and slapped himself in remorse, "You said I had to be smart at the time, but now I want money and money, and officials and officials to do it?"

Wang Xifeng rarely looked at Jia Lian with admiring eyes, and then nodded.

Jia Lian patted his head in frustration, took a deep breath, and regretted it even more.

"It's my father after all, it's not too late for you to understand now." When Wang Xifeng said this, his heart trembled, and he said it for himself.

"Where is your aunt?" Jia Lian asked.

Wang Xifeng's face darkened, "I haven't been there recently, so it's time to go and have a look. If we don't keep it together, our Rongfu will have an extra princess!"

"Okay, let's go, don't be like me, when he is really good, it will be too late to regret it." After Jia Lian said, he got up and went out.He was going to take a stroll in the neighbor's house first, so he had to figure out the master's preferences.

……

After dinner, Jia Amnesty bid farewell to Song Xi.He specifically asked him not to prepare gifts so politely when he came back in the future.

"Come again later?" Song Xi smiled contentedly, and nodded in agreement.

Jia Amnesty asked again, "What are your plans for tomorrow?"

"The queen hasn't seen Chunxiao for a few days, and she told me about it a few times. I'll take Chunxiao there tomorrow." Song Xi finished talking and got in the car.

As soon as Jia She turned around, he saw a letter presented in a pig's hair.

"Uncle Lin entrusted the caravan with a letter." Zhu Mao said.

Jia Amnesty opened it to look at it, smiled, then folded the letter and stuffed it back.

Zhu Mao stretched his neck and looked at Jia She expectantly, waiting for him to say something.

Jia Amnesty didn't say anything, and went to meet Yingchun with big strides.Yingchun was in Daiyu's room and asked her to teach her how to draw. When she heard that her father was coming, the two girls came over happily to say hello.

Jia Amnesty handed the letter to Daiyu, "Your father replied."

Daiyu took it carefully, and looked at the envelope first, feeling both joy and disappointment in her heart. The handwriting on the letter was indeed from her father, but the letter was not addressed to her.Daiyu then whispered: "Father gave this to uncle, how can I look good?"

"Look, there are no secrets between me and your father."

Daiyu then opened the letter and read it carefully.Most of the letters were my father's greetings to my uncle, and later I was euphemistically asking if my uncle was the one who sent the letter to Yangzhou for me.When Daiyu saw the end, her arms trembled slightly, and she burst into tears.

Yingchun didn't know why, so she went to comfort Daiyu, and asked her what was written in the letter, which made her so sad.

Daiyu laughed through tears, wiped away her tears, and looked at Yingchun happily: "Father said that he has reported to the court and requested to go to Beijing to report on his duties, and maybe he will leave for Beijing in the next few months."

"That's true, that's a good thing, sister Lin, you will see your father soon." Yingchun held Daiyu's hand and smiled happily.

Daiyu hurriedly delivered the letter to Jia She, "Did uncle forget to declare his family name when he sent someone to deliver the letter?"

"Huh?" Jia She looked at Daiyu.

Daiyu pouted in the direction of the letter, "Father asked in his heart if uncle sent someone to deliver the letter for me."

"Probably the messenger left in a hurry and forgot to declare his family name." Jia Amnesty smiled and finally understood what Lin Ruhai said in the letter.He picked up the letter, sent the two girls to continue painting, and left.

Zhu Mao was still waiting outside Rongxi Hall, and hurriedly followed after seeing the master came back.

Jia Amnesty handed Zhu Mao the letter in his hand, frowned and walked away for a while, then suddenly said to Zhu Mao: "It's time to raise two cleaners."

"Cleaners? Why did the master think of this?" Zhu Mao immediately thought of the second master's cleaners, and didn't like it very much.

"I don't want to be too arrogant, just find someone who can understand literary letters."

Zhu Mao finally understood, no wonder the master put away the letter just after reading it, it turned out that he didn't understand the contents of the letter from Mrs. Tanhualang Lin.Zhu Mao hurriedly agreed, determined to set off to inform Wanfu immediately.There are many poor scholars coming and going in the book shop, and I will definitely be able to find a suitable candidate from among them.

In fact, it's not that Jia She can't understand Lin Ruhai's letter at all, it's just that there are too many words, and the ancients always have metaphors in their speech, such as willow branches represent friendship, orchids represent a gentleman's character and so on.Talented people like Lin Ruhai and Song Xi are even more circumspect, what's more, the content of Lin Ruhai's letter is even more euphemistic, circumventing and circumventing.

Not long after, news of Lin Ruhai's intention to come to Beijing reached Mu Jia's ears.Mother Jia thought it was Lin Ruhai who came to Beijing to report on her duties and had no other purpose. She was quite happy and immediately asked someone to prepare the courtyard.

When Mrs. Wang heard the news, she couldn't calm down, thinking that Lin Ruhai had never seen him go to Beijing to report on his work in the past ten years, and now he was coming suddenly, probably because of Daiyu.

It happened that Wang Xifeng came to see her, Madam Wang tested her a few words to see if she could get something out of Wang Xifeng's mouth.

Wang Xifengque didn't know anything, and only said to Mrs. Wang: "The old lady is also happy about this. She said that she would save the Pear Fragrance Courtyard and let her live in it for Uncle Lin. I have already arranged for someone to clean it first, remove the furniture, etc. Things have been changed.”

"It turned out to be the old man's cultivation place, and the things are the best in the mansion, so why change them." Mrs. Wang sighed, and she was even more worried that Lin Ruhai came here for Zhang Daiyu and Baoyu's marriage.

Wang Xifeng smiled, "That's the reason, but our master told me not to be negligent, so I wouldn't dare to do anything wrong, just listen to it."

Mrs. Wang laughed softly, and so did Dao.

Wang Xifeng asked someone to show Mrs. Wang the Buddhist beads she got. "Fahua Temple presided over the consecration, and carved the scriptures on it with my own hands."

Mrs. Wang picked up the red sandalwood beads and looked at them carefully. Sure enough, scriptures in small characters could be engraved on each of the beads, which shows that a lot of work has been spent.

"You have a heart." Mrs. Wang took the beads and calmed down a little, with a little smile on her face.

Wang Xifeng was very good at observing words and expressions, seeing that Mrs. Wang was in a good mood at the moment, she cried with her about Wang Ziteng, lamenting the suffering of the women of the Wang family.It is really aggrieved that they have to suffer in the in-law's family because of this.

"Who says no? You are better. No matter how you say it, you are a generation behind. I am so ashamed to face others. At the beginning, I wished that I would die in the Buddhist hall. Thanks to the old lady and your comfort, I am today. " Mrs. Wang just sighed, and twisted the beads, with a dull expression on her face.

Wang Xifeng had no choice but to persuade her again.

Mrs. Wang smiled, "I appreciate your kindness. Your master is now very powerful. If you turn around and honor him, you will definitely be better than me in the future."

"It's right to respect him, and it's right here for my wife," Wang Xifeng said.

Mrs. Wang glanced at her, saw that she was still aware of current affairs, nodded her head, and told Wang Xifeng to be more disciplined during this time, "The days are long, if you can bear it now, you will not suffer later."

Wang Xifeng agreed, and then left from Mrs. Wang.After returning, she sighed to Ping'er that Mrs. Wang is not as good as she used to be.

"After this woman's family gets married, she depends on her mother's family to strengthen her back." Ping'er sighed.

Wang Xifeng said: "I looked coldly at the second wife and other things, but this one is not the case. During the days when she was in the Buddhist hall, she didn't see anyone, so she gave the old lady face. Later, the old man went away. , won't she get better?"

"Second Grandma said that there may be something else, and it has something to do with the old man?" Ping'er asked.

Wang Xifeng thought about it and thought so.As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a figure flash by the east window.Wang Xifeng hurriedly asked who it was, but Ping'er rushed out and caught the woman.

The mother-in-law hurriedly said: "I am here to send a message to the second mistress by the master's order. The elder master still has a few large pieces from Mr. Song. After the second mistress is included in the book, they will be sent to the back building."

"Understood, you can go." Wang Xifeng said.

Ping'er was not annoyed: "I was clearly eavesdropping just now, what was the message? When I went out, she was running away."

Wang Xifeng suddenly turned cold, and asked Ping'er to call the mother-in-law.Wang Xifeng immediately asked her sternly if she had eavesdropped.The woman didn't recognize her, so Wang Xifeng asked someone to slap her across the face.

Mrs. Wang came at this time, and the maid who was following behind her held a pot of beautiful women under the moon that looked just right.

One can tell at a glance that Mrs. Wang has come to send flowers specially.

Mrs. Wang saw Wang Xifeng beating someone.This woman, Mrs. Wang, is very familiar. Her surname is Lu, and she is from Jia She's room.

Mrs. Wang didn't expect Wang Xifeng to be so bold, so she hurriedly walked up to Wang Xifeng: "What are you doing, you dare to beat the master's people? She is a messenger, so there is nothing wrong with it. If you are not convinced, go to the master for comment. , it’s useless to imitate the tigress Sapo in front of us!”

"My wife doesn't know, this guy just eavesdropped on me and Heping'er's speech. No matter where he comes from, there is absolutely no such rule." Wang Xifeng said angrily.

Mrs. Wang sneered, "I think she is acting on orders. Maybe she is used to seeing how powerful you are. When she heard you yelling at him, she became confused and turned her head away in fright. If you don't believe me, just ask. It's so bad, does she recognize it or not?"

When Mrs. Lu heard the words, she quickly shook her head and denied it, only saying that she was passing on a message.

Mrs. Wang frowned and said to Wang Xifeng: "I am also doing it for your own good. Even if you punish her, you should send someone to tell your master first."

Wang Xifeng nodded obediently, and then sent someone to inform Jia Amnesty.

After Wang Xifeng invited Mrs. Wang to the house.Mrs. Wang gave the flower to Wang Xifeng.

"These two days are in flowering period. If you are interested, you and Lian'er can watch it together. It's very beautiful, don't miss it." Mrs. Wang smiled.

Wang Xifeng understood that Mrs. Wang had accepted her as a gesture of goodwill before accepting her, so she returned the gift, so she happily accepted the flowers and thanked Mrs. Wang well.

Mrs. Wang pondered for a moment, looked at Wang Xifeng, and said: "I know there are some things I shouldn't say, but your wife is gone, and I'm the only one left to say these things. I can't let the old lady worry about it. Besides, , your master also cares about it. It’s about your stomach and heirs. A few days ago, when the Rongxi Hall was empty, many maidservants went to play with Dongsun. Jin Chuan also went, and I heard Dongsun mention it by chance. Some. You should also pay attention to this matter. Although you have to guard the funeral of your step-wife for a year, you don’t have to worry about it for the time being, but have you ever thought about whether your master will get worse once the time limit passes? Urging you? I advise you to take this opportunity to take good care of your body to be serious."

When Wang Xifeng heard this, her face turned purple.She didn't doubt that in her heart at all, the master had forced her to have a child face to face earlier.

Wang Xifeng felt aggrieved in every possible way, "It's really my fault that I've been unsatisfied with you for the past two years. He scolded me and beat me to death. I have no complaints. It's nothing to call those lowly maids to call me thing."

Mrs. Wang patted the back of Wang Xifeng's hand, and advised her not to be anxious, "I see that your master was in a hurry, and picked up some serious words and said it, it doesn't matter. I'm afraid those servants don't know the importance, spread the word randomly, and make a mistake. Master's reputation."

In the final analysis, the Elder Master was not strict enough to control her subordinates, and let those despicable hoofs insult her.

Wang Xifeng felt very shameless, and as soon as Mrs. Wang left, she sat in the room, covering her handkerchief and weeping.

Ping'er hurried to persuade.

Wang Xifeng then scolded: "I want to know the fate of this dainty, courteous, and thoughtful servant. I'd rather have my head cut off and go to the temple to be a sister-in-law. What's the benefit of marrying someone!"

"Second Grandma, Dongsun is here to send a message." The outsider shouted.

When Wang Xifeng heard it was winter bamboo shoots, her eyes were red with anger, she hurriedly wiped away her tears, and called for someone to come in.Ping'er was afraid that Wang Xifeng would do something radical, so he hurriedly served tea and whispered to comfort Wang Xifeng to calm down, after all, Dongsun was the proud servant girl by the old man's side, so she must not move.

"Master said that since the old woman doesn't know the rules and eavesdropped on the master's speech, she should hit her and let the second grandma deal with it." Dong Sun said.

Wang Xifeng responded, and looked at Dongsun very angrily.

Dongsun felt that something was wrong, felt embarrassed, and thought that since Second Grandma had nothing to do, she would just leave.

"Stop!" Wang Xifeng yelled, then turned to look Dongsun up and down, and asked her how old she was this year and who was in her family.

Winter bamboo shoots came back one by one.

Wang Xifeng glared at Dongsun again, and told her to be cautious in her words and deeds when serving the Grand Master.Dongsun agreed puzzledly, and then resigned nervously.After returning to Rongxi Hall, she lost her mind and bumped her head against the pillar.

It happened that Jia Amnesty came out, saw this scene and asked her what was wrong.Dong Sun knew that the master loved to listen to news, so she felt that there was nothing to hide, so she hurriedly told Jia She about Wang Xifeng's weirdness.

"Who else went there before you went?" Jia She asked.

Dong Sun: "Second Wife."

"You really didn't arrange for Mrs. Lu who eavesdropped on the conversation before?" Jia Amnesty asked again.

Dong Sun shook her head, "I don't think she is a reliable person, and I have never looked for her. Besides, the scouts in our house follow the master's orders, and they do what they are supposed to do on weekdays, and they hear what they can hear." , I never taught them to eavesdrop on the wall. It's not a long-term solution!"

"You send someone to follow that woman, and see where she goes later."

After Jia She gave these instructions, he went to the study.

Before dinner, Jia Lian was excited when he came back from the neighbor's house.After he arrived at Rongxi Hall and asked where the Grand Master was, he knocked on the door of the study.

Jia Amnesty was drafting a plan for "Great Zhou Dynasty News", when he heard the knock on the door, he put away his things first.

He was alone in the study, so he opened the door and went out to meet Jia Lian.

Seeing that the master didn't allow him to enter the study, Jia Lian smiled humorously, took two steps back, and then respectfully bowed to Jia Amnesty.

Jia Amnesty heard Jia Lian say that he came to Dingxing, looked at him curiously, and took him to the West Wing for tea.During the period, a maid came to report the dinner menu to Jia She, and Jia She reduced two dishes before sending it away.

Jia Lian was amazed. He knew that the master had to wear vegetarian clothes and eat vegetarian every day, but he never expected to be so frugal.Even dinner is only two dishes and one soup, which is even more shabby than the dining tables of some servants in the mansion.Jia Lian thought about how he kept complaining about the food some time ago, and suddenly felt guilty.

"What's the matter, just tell me," Jia She said.

Jia Lian thought for a while, stood up quickly, smiled and swore to Jia Amnesty that she would respect him well in the future, and follow him wholeheartedly, without saying a word.I also ask Jia Amnesty to leave it to him no matter what dirty work there is in the future.In the end, he euphemistically mentioned Neighborhood Pavilion, saying that he could also help take care of it.

Jia Amnesty motioned Jia Lian to look at the little maid at the door, "That maid was Donggu. Her mother left after giving birth to her, and her father was bullied by bullies, and later died of illness. It was her elder brother and sister-in-law who raised her, and then his elder brother gave birth to her." After several children, the family became more and more difficult. Her sister-in-law did not eat well and had no milk, so she took the initiative to entrust someone to come to Rong Mansion to sell herself, just to make up for her brother at home."

"The life experience is quite miserable."

The family is not bitter, who would sell their children to this place as slaves, there are too many servants in the mansion like mushrooms.If you want to be sympathetic, he probably doesn't have time to eat.Jia Lian didn't take it seriously, but just sighed casually in order to cater to Jia Amnesty.

Jia She put down his teacup heavily, and stared coldly at Jia Lian: "You only saw her background? She is only seven years old, but she has such a heart, and knows how to earn money to support the family by herself. How about you? She is three times as old, but has she ever earned a penny purely on her own?"

Jia Lian wanted to refute, but he has done a lot of things these years.Can you think about which one is not based on the foundation of the ancestors?There is really no penny earned by one's own ability.Jia Lian immediately blushed and hung her head, too embarrassed to look at Jia Amnesty.In comparison, he was indeed inferior to a seven-year-old maid.

"You are so courteous to me all of a sudden today. I know in my heart that you must have heard some rumors to be so clever." Seeing that Jia Lian was about to open his mouth, Jia She immediately stopped him, "You don't need to explain, and I don't want to listen to you either. An excuse. If you really want to be promising and want me to admire you, first do a few things to make me admire you. "

Jia Lian obediently nodded in agreement.

Dongsun entered the door at this time, leaned close to Jia She's ear and whispered twice.

Jia Lian will leave.

"Stop, go back and tell your daughter-in-law that Mrs. Lu belongs to her aunt, and she is reporting the news in the east courtyard at the moment."

Jia Lian was stunned, although he didn't know what it was, but he always felt that it should be something important, so he hurried back to inform Wang Xifeng after agreeing.

Wang Xifeng was still angry, after hearing Jia Lian's words, she looked at Jia Lian with still red and swollen eyes: "Are you serious?"

"Master said so." Jia Lian said innocently.

Without further ado, Wang Xifeng asked someone to hold up the beauty under the moon, and immediately took her to Mrs. Wang's courtyard.

When she was walking in, she happened to see Mrs. Lu coming forward.Grandma Lu saw Wang Xifeng from a distance as if she had seen a ghost, she turned around and ran back, trying to hide.

Wang Xifeng laughed angrily, turned around and pushed away the pot of flowers that the maid was holding.The pot was broken, and even the flowers and soil were scattered on the ground.Wang Xifeng was so angry that she stomped a few times, she didn't need to go to Mrs. Wang to argue, she turned around and left.

Mrs. Lu hid behind the bushes, and seeing Wang Xifeng gone, she came out angrily, and tiptoed over to take a look at what Wang Xifeng stepped on.Seeing that the flowers were sent by Mrs. Wang, she felt very bad. If Mrs. Wang found out about her reckless encounter with Wang Xifeng, she would definitely be dead.Seeing that no one was around, Mrs. Lu hurriedly kicked the soil and flower pots to the side of the road with her feet, then folded the trampled flower, stuffed it into her sleeve and hid it, then hurried away and returned to the place as before. To be on duty in the Grand Master's courtyard.

Seeing that Mrs. Lu came back intact, Dongsun rushed to inform Jia Amnesty.Jia Amnesty kept it for the time being, and she might be able to use this woman in the future.

Wang Xifeng finally saw clearly now that the words Mrs. Wang kindly reconciled and persuaded her just now were actually provocative.That winter bamboo shoot may not have said anything bad about herself at all!

Wang Xifeng was so angry that she burst into tears. She never thought that her aunt, whom she still misses so much, would plot against her so ruthlessly.

Seeing her like this, Jia Lian hurriedly asked what had happened, and jumped up angrily when she heard it, "You should go and explain it to her, and she will be ashamed of making trouble!"

"How do you say it? I didn't catch it right, so what excuses would she use to prevaricate me? After all, she is an elder, and if she gets dizzy later, it will be my fault. I don't need to explain clearly, my heart She knows it, she knows it in her heart, so that's all, it's best not to have any contact with her in the future." Wang Xifeng said.

Jia Lian nodded, thinking it was the same reason, so he comforted Wang Xifeng well.

Unexpectedly, on the second day, Mrs. Wang chatted enthusiastically with Wang Xifeng like a normal person.Wang Xifeng didn't change her face, she turned her head and asked someone to check, only then did she know that Mrs. Lu didn't have the guts to tell Mrs. Wang, and now she has been acting like a coward.

Wang Xifeng thought about it, but she didn't say anything, but let's see how long Mrs. Wang can pretend and how long she wants to use her.Don't tell her to seize the opportunity, or she will definitely suffer a severe loss.

On this day, Wang Xifeng was doing housework, when she heard that the sisters were coming, she hurriedly asked someone to prepare a meal for them.

After Daiyu chatted with her for a few words, they all left, except Yuanchun who seemed to have something to say to Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng asked her to sit down, "Sister, just say what you want, I'm not an outsider. Besides, compared with those sisters, we are one step ahead. After all, your mother is my real aunt."

Yuan Chun nodded, she thought so too.Wang Xifeng is not only her biological cousin, but also her cousin.When she was in the palace, her mother often mentioned Wang Xifeng's reliability in letters, so she also trusted Wang Xifeng.

After a few words of politeness, Yuan Chun confides the truth to Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng nodded, and echoed: "It's understandable that you don't want to participate in the selection of concubines in Prince Qi's mansion, that place is worse than the imperial palace, and besides, the old concubine asked you to be a concubine, obviously looking down on us , why bother to humiliate yourself."

"If you want to be a regular wife, you can even be a continuation." Yuan Chun said with a blushing face.

Seeing her shyness, Wang Xifeng suddenly realized, "Could it be that you already have someone in mind? Who is it? Tell me quickly."
