It has to be said that the two marriages of the Jia family were a bit rushed. They engaged the Li family in the first half of the year, and married Li Wan in the second half of the year. As soon as Li Wan's wedding was over, he immediately engaged the Wang family, and then In April of that year, Wang Xifeng was married into the family.

Of the four people involved, Jia Zhu and Li Wan, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng were naturally compared.Then many people, especially the girls and servants of Jia's family, were muttering whether they were matched wrongly.

Without him, although the Jia family's men are all good-looking, Jia Zhu and Jia Lian are really similar in appearance alone.But in terms of temperament, Jia Zhu is calm and bookish, which is much better than Jia Lian who has a pair of peach blossom eyes and a frivolous temperament.But as for their wives, Li Wan is only delicate, not as beautiful as Wang Xifeng, not to mention that Li Wan has been married for half a year. But Wang Xifeng looks like a fairy concubine after being well-dressed.

This person is the most difficult to compare. If there is no Wang Xifeng, then it will be fine, but with Wang Xifeng, the two couples will come to Jiamu's Rongqing Hall, and the difference will come out:

For men, Jia Zhu is far better than Jia Lian; for women, Wang Xifeng is far better than Li Wan.

Combined with the dowry of Li Wan and Wang Xifeng, the servants of the Jia family felt that Li Wan was no match for Wang Xifeng.

It has to be said that Jia Amnesty's successive widows and marriages gave Mrs. Wang the opportunity to hold the power of housekeeper of the Rongguo Mansion for a long time, and also gave her the opportunity to leave a deep imprint in the Rongguo Mansion. The most notable point is that Mrs. Wang herself Greed for money is like a money python, and the servant girl of the Jia family is also deeply influenced by Mrs. Wang, and both eyes are fixed on money.

They couldn't see the political significance of Guozijian's identity as a sacrificial wine. They looked at Wang Xifeng and Li Wan very intuitively, looking at the fields and the amount of gold, silver and jewelry they married.

A considerable part of Li Wan's dowry was books, calligraphy and paintings. Although they were not famous at the level of Tang Yinqiu Shizhou, they were still rare items.But for the Jia family, what kind of contemporary Confucianism?they do not know.They only saw that Wang Xifeng's dowry was radiant gold and silver jewels, rare imported products, and a real farm.They couldn't see the connections behind these calligraphy and paintings, they only saw the pile of gold, silver and jewels.

It has to be said that from the perspective of wealth, Wang Xifeng's dowry is amazing.The row of 120 dowries started with five pieces of soil embryos representing fifty hectares of land, followed by glass kang screens, a Western imported product that even Ningguo Mansion may not find, followed by gold, silver and jewelry filled to the brim. After that, there are all kinds of gorgeous and precious materials for the clothes of the four seasons, and then rare medicinal materials such as ginseng and bezoar, and various sundries.

Wang Xifeng's grandfather used to manage the seawall in Jinling for the royal family, and by the way also managed the tribute ships from foreign feudal vassals. In terms of good things, the Wang family only had a lot, otherwise the official amulet would not have read brightly, "The East China Sea lacks white jade beds, Dragon King Invite the King of Jinling."

In terms of luxury, the Wang family is not inferior to the Jia family.

From the point of view of the dowry alone, you don’t look at the brand-new huanghuali furniture that was delivered to Jia’s house in advance, but followed Wang Xifeng’s bridal sedan chair, and there were 120 full-loaded ones.This head has already been sent into the new house, and there are still many doors behind that have not been carried out of the Wang family!

In contrast, Li Wan's dowry was only 86 carry, and he only pretended to be [-]% full.

With such a stark contrast, how could the servants of the Jia family not discuss it?

When Li Wan entered the door, Mrs. Wang's complexion was not good-looking. Now that she saw such a generous dowry for her niece, and heard from Wang's family that she was already worried that Li Wan would try to reduce the number of dowry, Mrs. Wang's face became more and more serious. Cloudy and sunny.

On the other hand, when Mrs. Xing saw so many dowries, she felt uncomfortable. She was originally a stepmother, and she hadn't been in the house for a long time. The young woman married a half-century old man. Sister-in-law and daughter-in-law are not easy to deal with, and now this cheap daughter-in-law is so big, I heard that her temper is also domineering, even the new house of this young couple is decided by this new daughter-in-law, Mrs. Xing is very upset of.

Don't tell me to beg for life in front of my cheap daughter-in-law.

This is the only feeling of Mrs. Xing who has learned how powerful the Jia family is, and now only dares to play prestige in front of Jia Amnesty's concubine Ji Ji.

Mother Jia didn't care about these lawsuits, she took Wang Xifeng's tea with a smile, and gave a set of ruby ​​noodles as a meeting gift, then smiled and watched Wang Xifeng offer tea to Mrs. Jia Shexing, Mrs. Jia Zhengwang, and after serving the tea, she went Having seen Jia Zhenyou, Jia Zhu, Li Wan, and the young Jia Baoyu in the same generation, Jia's mother smiled and said: "Feng girl, I will leave Lian'er to you in the future. If Lian'er treats you badly in any way For you, just come and tell me, and I will decide with you."

Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "The grandson's daughter-in-law will thank the old lady first."

Mrs. Wang immediately seized the opportunity and said: "Old lady, since Feng girl has entered the door, do you want to learn how to be a housekeeper first?"

Just as Jia's mother was about to open her mouth, Wang Xifeng hurriedly said, "Auntie, please forgive me. I just entered here, and the house has not been fully prepared yet. You want me to be a housekeeper? What if I lose the watermelon? Picking up sesame seeds and making a joke, wouldn’t I let my aunt take care of it for me? Why don’t I ask my aunt to take care of me and wait for me to take care of all the things in our house before learning how to be a housekeeper?”

Mrs. Xing was stunned at that moment.

This is the power of the housekeeper!How is this kid...

Jia's mother didn't care: "That's right, Feng girl is a newcomer after all. If that's the case, let Feng girl relax for a couple of days. It's better after the first three months of marriage."

Wang Xifeng hurriedly said: "Daughter-in-law Sun thanked the old lady for her understanding."

After serving tea, the men left one after another, leaving a group of women to chat and laugh in front of Jiamu.When Jia Zheng was there, Jia Baoyu was honest and honest. As soon as Jia Zheng left, Jia Baoyu immediately became a monkey.He threw himself into Wang Xifeng's arms and said with a smile, "Sister Feng, you will be in our house for a long time from now on!"

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Oh, Baoyu, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are sinking again. You are also taller! You are already an adult, not a child."

"Really? Really? Have I really grown taller?"

The biggest dream of most children is to grow up, and Jia Baoyu is no exception.

"Yes, yes, it's a bit taller than the boss."

Jia Baoyu said: "Sister Feng is really beautiful today, and the rouge is also beautiful. Which company's rouge is it? Can you give me a bite?"

Li Wan's expression changed immediately.

Wang Xifeng narrowed his eyes, stared at Jia Baoyu and said, "Baoyu, you are already an adult, and an adult should not just eat the rouge from other people's mouths."

Jia Baoyu was dumbfounded and said after a long time:

"Then, then I don't want to grow up."

Wang Xifeng said: "It's a pity, Baoyu, you have grown up."

With a wow, Jia Baoyu threw himself into Mother Jia's arms.

Jia's mother put her arms around Jia Baoyu and said, "Baoyu Baoyu, you are a child, you are the ancestor's darling, of course you are a child."

After comforting Jia Baoyu for a long time, Jia Baoyu finally stopped crying.

Today's tea ceremony can be said to be anticlimactic, even Mrs. Wang didn't bother to greet Wang Xifeng, and let Wang Xifeng easily follow Mrs. Xing to the East Courtyard when the show was over.

Back in the East Courtyard, as soon as Mrs. Xing sat down, she couldn't help saying to Wang Xifeng: "Daughter-in-law Lian, since you call me Mrs., then I will say a few more words. How can you be so easy about the housekeeper?" The ground just pushed it?"

Wang Xifeng hurriedly glanced left and right.

Wang Shanbao's family reacted immediately and made all the concubines and concubines in the room retreat.

Only then did Wang Xifeng softly say: "Madam, although you didn't watch me grow up, you are close to me. You know me. If it wasn't for the tricks behind it, how could I push it away. Madam, what do you think? Think about the time you entered the door, didn’t you also take care of things for two days? Do you remember what happened? "

Mrs. Xing said: "But, but you are the eldest daughter-in-law..."

"Ma'am, it's because I'm the eldest wife that I'm not in a hurry. Ma'am, my daughter-in-law has already found out. Over there, the warehouse has been emptied long ago, and I'm looking forward to someone taking over the shortfall! Ma'am, we Why should they fulfill their wishes? Anyway, the national laws and family rules are there, even if she secretly sold all the fields in the mansion, she will have to make up for it when she checks the accounts in the future. If this is the case, why should we step on this mud pit?"

Seeing that Mrs. Xing was anxious, Wang Xifeng pressed her hand quietly, and said: "Madam, don't worry, the master has long paid attention to this matter. Just bear with it for a while."

Mrs. Xing heard about it, and said after half a day: "How long will I have to endure this?"

The author has something to say: Lian and Cong, these are ritual vessels for sacrifice, and they cannot be used by bastards.In addition to the festival of ancestor worship in Ningguo Mansion, the ranking of Jia Cong and Jia Lian is even higher than that of Jia Baoyu, so this article assumes that Jia Cong is a legitimate son, but he is only born to his second wife, and he was not born to the same mother as Jia Lian, so Only then did he not get close to Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng.

In other words, Jia Amnesty's first wife gave birth to Jia Lian, and his second wife gave birth to Jia Cong. Mrs. Xing may be the third, fourth or even fifth wife.
