Be a maid in the red mansion [Comprehensive]

"After the new year, in February, the Xue family hosted a banquet for the clansmen and held a formal ceremony. Jiang Wanyin officially became the second wife of Xue Yan, the eldest son of the eldest son of the Xue family."

After Wang Xiuyao became pregnant, Master Xue asked the mansion to change his address.

Master Xue is called the old man, and Mrs. Xue is called the old lady; so Xue Yan naturally becomes the master, and Wang Xiuyao naturally becomes the wife.

"Because the old man and the old lady are still there, the Xue family has not separated. Xue Yan's concubine brother is the second master, and the wife of Xue Yan's concubine brother is the second wife. Several children in the house have also changed their names. Xue Hong is the uncle, Bao Ying is the eldest girl, Xue Ling is the second master and so on."

"Because there is already a second wife in the mansion, Jiang Wanyin, the second wife of the big house, can't be called the second wife. In order to avoid confusion with the second wife, Jiang Wanyin is called the second wife."

"Jiang Wanyin kowtowed to Wang Xiuyao and Xue Yan for tea and then returned to Lanxin Academy. Jiang Wanyin's four children in Lanxin Academy have already been waiting in Lanxin Academy."

Seeing Jiang Wanyin coming back, the brothers and sisters all stood up.

"mother."

Finally, the four filial children were very happy to be able to call their birth mother mother instead of aunt.

Jiang Wanyin was also very happy.

"Hey."

"Second Madam, please sit down quickly and let the uncle, the second master, the third master and the eldest girl serve you tea."

Yuzhi reminds Jiang Wanyin.

"In the past, Jiang Wanyin was just an aunt, and she could only be regarded as a half-master, but her child was the master. According to the rules, she naturally couldn't let the child kneel down and serve her tea. Now that she has become the second wife, she is finally qualified to drink the tea served by her own child." gone."

"Yes, mother, please sit down."

Several children also urged, Jiang Wanyin sat down with a smile.

"Jiang Wanyin sat down, and the four children offered tea to Jiang Wanyin in order of seniority. The mother and child were happy and harmonious."

"Mother, where is father? Why didn't father come over?"

After the mother and son chatted for a while, Baoying suddenly asked.

"Your father is at the wife's place, and he will be here in a while."

The four children didn't look very happy when they heard this, Jiang Wanyin knew what the children were thinking.

Since Wang Xiuyao became pregnant, Xue Yan attached great importance to the child in Wang Xiuyao's womb.Although the child hadn't been born yet, it had already attracted most of Xue Yan's attention.In this way, Xue Yan naturally paid less attention to other children.

He even changed the plan of teaching Xue Hong, and at the same time agreed to let Xue Hong go to the academy to study.

These children have always been loved by Xue Yan, so they naturally know about Xue Yan's changes.Especially after Wang Xiuyao became pregnant, Jiang Wanyin talked with the four children and enlightened them. Although the children were sad, they were not too sad to be rebellious.

Because Jiang Wanyin knows that children always have to grow up, they always have to go out, they always have to get along with outsiders, and sooner or later they will know the difference in background between the concubine and concubine, Jiang Wanyin doesn't want her children to be looked down upon by others Only after knowing her parentage, Jiang Wanyin hoped that her children could face her parentage.

Birth cannot be determined by one person alone, and her status in this life is also doomed that she cannot give her children a natural birth; so Jiang Wanyin has always reminded several children that they are concubines, and the children also know that they are concubines.

In fact, she was born in Xue's family. Although Xue's family is rich, Jiang Wanyin doesn't want her child to inherit Xue's family and be trapped in Xue's family.

Although the Xue family is rich, they have no rights. In order to keep their family property, even if they are unwilling, they can only endure being exploited.More than half of the money the Xue family earned in these years was donated to the Rongguo Mansion, the Wang Family Historian and other places for management, and only a small half was left behind.

It was precisely because of his lack of power that Xue Yan could only watch helplessly as Wang Xiuyao moved things from the Xue family to the Rongguo Mansion to the Wang family, but he had to stop her.

All of this is due to lack of power, because the Wang family has great power.

Not only that, the property of the Xue family is not all owned by Xue Yan, most of it belongs to the entire Xue family, and is shared by the six members of the Xue family.And Xue's family is also gone now, and most of the clansmen retreated without thinking about it.

Inheriting the Xue family's property undoubtedly recruited a bunch of dragging clansmen for him.

With these people who eat and drink, the Xue family will be dragged down sooner or later, and Jiang Wanyin naturally doesn't want her children to be dragged down.

So from the beginning to the end, Jiang Wanyin never thought about letting her son inherit the Xue family.

Her children are all smart, and they are good at reading. Jiang Wanyin hopes that they can take the imperial examination, and they don't need to be looked down upon as businessmen.Even if you can't become an official in the future, even being a teacher is better than being a businessman.

Of course, Jiang Wanyin didn't tell the children these ideas immediately, but slowly conveyed them to the children during daily teaching.

"Okay, today is my mother's big day, let's all be happier."

Jiang Wanyin reached out and touched the child's head.

"Well, my son is happy for my mother."

A smile appeared on Xue Hong's face, and she was really happy for her biological mother.The three Baoying siblings also surrounded Jiang Wanyin talking and laughing.

When Xue Yan arrived at Lanxinyuan, he heard the children's laughter before entering the door.

"It seems that you are all very happy today."

Xue Yan stepped into the door and said with a smile, Jiang Wanyin looked up at Xue Yan.

"The master is here, come and serve tea to the master."

Xue Yan walked to Jiang Wanyin and sat down, stretched out his hand to hold Jiang Wanyin's hand, looked at Jiang Wanyin with affection in his eyes and said:

"What I promised you back then, I finally fulfilled today."

Jiang Wanyin couldn't help being sarcastic when she heard this, but she didn't show it on her face, and said with a moved expression: "I always remember it. Thank you, master, for still thinking about it."

If she already knew the truth, she might believe his words.

In order to show off and beat her, Wang Xiuyao specially left her behind when she went to pay her respects, and told her the whole story.

After Wang Xiuyao broke the good news that day, she and Xue Yan mentioned the matter of promoting Jiang Wanyin as the second wife, but Xue Yan, who had proposed Jiang Wanyin as the second wife several times before, hesitated, and even said that she would wait until Wang Xiuyao's child was born. .

Jiang Wanyin knew Xue Yan's thoughts, if it was Wang Xiuyao's daughter, she would still be raised as the second wife; but if Wang Xiuyao gave birth to a son, the matter of raising the second wife would naturally not be mentioned again.

Jiang Wanyin knew that if Wang Xiuyao really gave birth to a son, she and her child would be suppressed for the sake of her legitimate son Xue Yan.

It's just that Wang Xiuyao was threatened by Jiang Wanyin, she didn't dare to delay, and insisted on promoting Jiang Wanyin as the second wife, Xue Yan couldn't resist, and she agreed after discussing with Master Xue.

If Wang Xiuyao hadn't insisted on being threatened by Jiang Wanyin, maybe Jiang Wanyin's title as the second wife would have been ruined.

Sure enough, I couldn't believe what this man said.

Jiang Wanyin's heart, which had been softened by getting along day and night for more than ten years, turned cold again.

Just looking at the four children, Jiang Wanyin sighed silently.

That's all, that's all, after all, he is the biological father of the children, so he can only get along with them as ordinary relatives.

Because today is Jiang Wanyin's happy day, Xue Yan stayed in Lanxinyuan.After the family had dinner, Xue Yan talked about Xue Hong going to the academy to study.

"At Zijin Academy, I've already made arrangements for my father. After fifteen years, I will send you to the academy for an exam. Whether you can pass the academy's assessment and enter the academy depends on your ability. Hong'er can Don't disappoint your father."

"Father, you can rest assured that your son will not let you down."

Xue Hong still had a childish little face with a serious expression. After speaking, he glanced at Jiang Wanyin, as if to say: My son will not let mother down.

Jiang Wanyin gave her son an encouraging smile, she believed in her son.

At night, after taking a bath and freshening up, Xue Yan suddenly talked to Jiang Wanyin before falling asleep.

"A few days ago, I got the news that the palace was going to choose companions for the three princesses, and my father meant that we Ying'er should try it too. Although Ying'er came from a poor background, Ying'er is proficient in all aspects of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. , is no worse than the daughters of those officials and eunuchs in Beijing."

"Master, you let Yinger enter the palace?"

Jiang Wanyin sat up from the bed and looked at Xue Yan in disbelief.

Xue Yan didn't know where it was in the palace, but she, Jiang Wanyin, did.

That's where people eat people.

Ying'er is only ten years old, she is young and her family background is low, but she has a good appearance, she is afraid that she will end up with no bones left when she enters the palace.

Ying'er is not her, Ying'er doesn't have golden fingers, and Ying'er doesn't have her experience in many lifetimes, her Ying'er is just a child, how could she bear to send her to that place where people eat people.

It is said that it is to choose a reading companion for the princess, but the officials and clans in Beijing are rich in wealth. How can a princess choose a merchant girl as a reading companion? A maid who can serve people.

How could her daughter who is so pampered and beloved be served as a palace maid and servant.

"This is what the old man meant. The old man has asked someone to invite the nanny from the palace. At most two nanny should arrive. When the nanny arrives, let Ying'er learn the rules from the nanny."

Hearing Jiang Wanyin's words, Jiang Wanyin couldn't help feeling cold.

For the Xue family, Xue Yan and his son had to sacrifice her daughter.

Jiang Wanyin couldn't help being angry in her heart.

But she didn't show it, because she knew that if she got angry at this moment, it would only make things worse.

"Don't worry, my father and I will take care of Ying'er, and we won't let Ying'er be wronged."

"But Ying'er is still young..."

"The eldest of the three princesses is no more than twelve years old, and the youngest is only eight years old. Our Ying'er age is just right."

Xue Yan didn't let Jiang Wanyin refuse to speak out at all.

Jiang Wanyin knew in her heart that Xue Yan had already made up her mind.

She can't panic, there is still time, Ying'er is not about to leave immediately.

Jiang Wanyin quickly calmed down.There is no rush, she has to plan slowly.

No matter what ideas Xue Yan and his son have, she will not let them succeed.Her Jiang Wanyin's daughter would never serve others as a slave.

Jiang Wanyin kept thinking in her mind, thinking of ways, how to keep her daughter, how to prevent her from entering the palace.

Seeing that she was still sitting, Xue Yan reached out and pulled her to lie down.

"Don't think about it, my husband will arrange this matter, it's getting late, let's rest."

After finishing speaking, she turned over and covered Jiang Wanyin under her body, her intention was obvious.

It's just that Jiang Wanyin isn't in the mood at all.

"master……"

Jiang Wanyin raised her hand against Xue Yan, but Xue Yan grabbed her hand.

"Don't think about anything else, take good care of your husband..."

Without any explanation, she fell down, not caring whether Jiang Wanyin was willing or not.
