[Red Mansion] The adopted son of the Lin family

The decline of the Zhen family was much faster than expected.

Mother Jia's [-]th birthday was only celebrated in early August. On the seventh day of August, four women from the Zhen family and a few servants from Jiangnan entered Jia's house through the back door of Rongning Street with a dozen suitcases.When Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang saw the visitor in person, they ordered the dozens of boxes to be carried into the warehouse.Although this action can be concealed from outsiders, it cannot be concealed from family members.

Jia Amnesty took a puff of dry cigarette and said with a sneer, "The old lady is good at calculating. She just took everything without saying a word. I'm afraid our family will not be ruined!"

Then he said: "In the past, I always thought that the old lady had been in charge of the public school for so many years, and she was very clear-headed. Today I found out that I was wrong. Wang's nonsense will be fine. Who would want to be old?" The wife actually followed suit. The things belonging to the Zhen family seem to be rich and valuable gold and silver at the moment, but I'm afraid they will become a hot potato in the future. Unexpectedly, when the emperor changes his mind, these dozens of boxes will become the bane of ransacking the family and exterminating the family! "

Jia Lian sat at the bottom and heard what Jia She said. As a junior, he didn't dare to speak at this time.

On the contrary, Wang Xifeng hugged Brother Xun and kissed him, then smiled and said: "Master, there is no need to worry, we and the second room have already separated, and what they do has nothing to do with our first room. Besides, nothing has ever entered our house. In my eyes, we will be accused in the future, we just insist that we don’t know, the current sage is a wise king, and he will definitely not blame Zhongliang.”

Mrs. Xing originally thought that so much of the Zhen family's property had gone into Mrs. Wang's private treasury, but she was still reluctant.Seeing Jia She's face was very ugly at this time, he gradually understood in his heart.Presumably the dozens of boxes in the Zhen family were not a windfall, but a disaster.Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth with hatred, and cursed: "What a heartless bitch, she only looks at the house or whether she is in charge, her eyes are only on the money, and she doesn't look at the mansion at all. , I should tear her mouth apart!"

Wang Xifeng hurriedly persuaded: "Madam, don't be angry, you hurt yourself carefully."

It would be better if she didn't persuade her, Mrs. Xing has always been a bit left-handed, and she didn't show it when she was served by Wang Xifeng in the past.At this time, because I was holding back my anger, and seeing Wang Xifeng's bright and beautiful face standing in front of me, I was very stunned, and finally spat with a cold face: "Bah! You are her serious nephew. Daughter, be close to her. What does my son do to persuade me now, it is better to get close to your good aunt, and see that she will share the benefits with you. Don't show off these articles in front of me. Literally, I don't care about it!"

When Wang Xifeng heard her say this, she knew that she was on the right track.He didn't make any distinctions in his mouth, and when his eyes turned red, he knelt down at Mrs. Xing's feet and cried: "My wife is so cruel, I am the wife of the big house, my son kicked me out now, but why? It makes sense. I only want to get married and obey my husband, and serve my father-in-law and mother-in-law well at home. If my wife says this, isn’t she stabbing my heart with a knife, I might as well just hit my head and die!" It was "woo woo" crying.

Brother Xun was crying so much when he saw his mother, his little mouth shrunk, and he was sobbing too.He only pulled Wang Xifeng's sleeve and choked with sobs, "My wife won't cry, my wife won't cry."

Mrs. Xing couldn't bear to see Wang Xifeng crying like this.Those angers have long since been diluted, and seeing Brother Xun standing beside Wang Xifeng, his cheeks flushed red from crying, he felt even more sympathetic.He hurriedly hugged Brother Xun into his arms, and said in a loud voice: "My dear grandson, don't cry, I am just playing with your wife, and I am not really angry with her." After that, he said angrily: "You Are they all dead people? Seeing my wife kneeling on the ground and not saying to help her up, what's the use of supporting you."

Hearing the words, those maids hurried forward to help Wang Xifeng up, pulling the handkerchief, and fetching water, all in a hurry.

When Wang Xifeng cleaned up and sat down again, Jia Lian reached out and took Wang Xifeng's hand.Seeing Mrs. Xing hugging Brother Xun and not letting go, she just bowed her hands to Jia She and said: "Now, seeing what the second wife means, she wants to accept the Zhen family's things. I don't know what the old lady's idea is, if they I only want to help the Zhen family gain power, but I'm afraid it won't go well. Even if we are not the main culprits, we will be implicated in it after all."

Jia Amnesty didn't know that he couldn't write two Jia characters in one stroke.What the old lady did was really want to put Jia's family on the fire.

"Lian'er, after all, I should mention this matter to your Uncle Lin. Your Uncle Lin has always won the sacred heart, and the crown prince and your cousin Lin have always been close. We can't get involved in this matter, but we have to Find a way to get our family out as soon as possible."

Although Jia Amnesty did a lot of cockfighting and running dogs, at any rate, he was brought by his grandfather and grandmother to teach him carefully when he was young.If the old man and his wife hadn't passed away too early, it would not have been Jia Mu's turn to take charge of the house.Not to mention making the current Duke's Mansion so that there is no distinction between the concubine and the concubine, it is simply a joke in the world!

Back then, under the hands-on teaching of Grandpa Guo, he never failed to learn what he should learn.It's just a pity that Jia's mother favored the youngest son later on, which made him, the eldest son of the serious heir, fall back a shot.

Thinking of this, Jia Amnesty's expression turned gloomy for a moment.He just adjusted quickly, looked at Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, sighed and said, "If a family like the Zhen family is to be defeated, it will come from the inside. Our house looks at the flowers blooming brocades and the fire cooking the oil. But the inner capsule is all gone.”

Wang Xifeng, who was also in charge of Zhongfu, did not know that the Jia family is not as glamorous as it used to be.When she was housekeeping, she put in a lot of body parts, but it still couldn't make up for the shortfall in the public office.Thinking of Mrs. Wang's advice to her at that time, Wang Xifeng tightened her grip on the handkerchief.

"Sir, I have something to say here."

Jia Amnesty knew that this daughter-in-law was capable, and she was as good as a man when she was a housekeeper, even Jia Lian couldn't match her.Seeing that her tone was a bit hesitant, but her eyes showed a bit of firmness, Jia She's heart changed, then he nodded and asked her to explain the following.

"The princes in our family have always lived on their own food and cannot make ends meet. Thinking about it, the master knows it well. When I was in charge of the middle income, I don't say that I paid in all my dowry, but I paid seven out of ten of it. Eights are always available. Anyway, I came to my senses overnight, and these things should be reserved for sister Qiao and brother Xun."

Jia She heard this and said: "I know this. There are always people who steal, rape and play tricks in the house. You are all the masters. I don't know how many floors are separated from you. If they want to lose their money, No matter how powerful you are, there is nothing you can do."

Wang Xifeng nodded repeatedly, deeply agreeing.

Mrs. Xing was listening, but she frowned, "Could it be that those slaves still dare to lie? What's more, the work of purchasing has always been managed by the nurse in charge. Master, if you say that, don't you think that even the nurse in charge Mama can't believe it either?"

"What's so strange about this." Jia Amnesty took a puff of dry cigarette and said with a sneer, "Most of the nuns in charge are domestic servants, and the whole family is in the house. Not to mention the new maids and servants. No matter how good you are, use them to honor them, I'm afraid they will live a much better life than us masters."

"Sure?"

Seeing that she was still in disbelief, Wang Xifeng hurriedly said: "My wife doesn't know something. Lai Momo who is next to the old lady has a lot of face in front of the old lady because she has served the old master. Her grandson has been a baby since childhood. It seems that they are raised by girls, wives, and nurses. They are proud and expensive, and I am afraid they are no worse than the decent brothers in our family. Because their family needs them, and the old lady has always been used to them old people, so she gave them to them. Grace, let him be redeemed, and it doesn’t matter if he is a slave of our family. Now he is 20 years old, he can read and write well, and he is still taking the road of official examination. Grace donated an official in the court to do it."

When Mrs. Xing heard this, she became angry immediately. "It's not bad!"

"Don't be angry, ma'am, it's all right. Coincidentally, on the day of my birthday, the old lady took Baoyu, Xia Shi, Shi Shi and others to sit in the garden of Lai's family for an afternoon. "Speaking, Wang Xifeng also sneered twice, "With people like the old lady, I haven't seen anything good. What kind of family property is the Lai family, and now they have built a more magnificent garden than ours. Since the old lady has been sitting at his house all afternoon, she thinks it would be great to come to the garden. I am surprised that their family was born as a slave, and now they spend more money from the master than ours. gone."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xing became even more angry.Jia She glanced at her and said with a sneer, "You have the mind to worry about these little things, and now my son should beat your companions, one or two fools, don't worry about them in the future." This villain has tired our whole family."

There's something Mrs. Xing doesn't understand.In the first place, Wang Shanbao's family persuaded him not to succeed, but he persuaded Mrs. Wang to steal the Yihong Courtyard, and sent all the maids in the Yihong Courtyard to hell.At that time, although Mrs. Xing was a little secretly angry at Wang Shanbao's troublesome family, she was secretly happy to see Mrs. Wang making a scene in Baoyu's Yihong Courtyard.Now that I think about it, Wang Shanbao's family is not a good thing, he only knows how to bully his master, but fortunately, he didn't want to get involved in the matter of the second wife before, so he was not held back.But if she put such a restless person by her side again, not to mention others, even Mrs. Xing herself would be very upset.

It's just... Wang Shanbao's family is his companion after all, if he is too ruthless, I'm afraid it will also chill people's hearts.

Mrs. Xing hesitated in her heart, and her face inevitably showed a little bit.Wang Xifeng's observation of words and demeanor is first-rate, seeing Mrs. Xing's hesitant expression, she said: "Madam, if you don't worry, you might as well leave it to me, it will definitely be appropriate."

Mrs. Xing just nodded, and said nothing more.

After Wang Xifeng finished talking here, he slowly told these people about Mrs. Wang's tricking her into lending money.Jia She was so frightened that he even dropped the cigarette stick in his hand, even Jia Lian turned pale, and asked directly, "Then did you let it go?"
