[Red Mansion] Adopted daughter and child

Yingchun subconsciously looked up at Mrs. Xing, with a dull expression: "Father likes concubines and maids the most, and now the beautiful maids and concubines in the yard are almost out of place. He hangs around in the concubine's room all day, almost I am so happy to miss Shu, how can I remember that I have a wife?"

As she said that, she lowered her voice, "I heard that father has not been to rest in mother's room for more than two months. Even if mother wants to conceive, there is no way."

Because of this, Mrs. Xing lost face in front of the servants of the Rongguo Mansion. If she wanted to order her servants to do something later, it would be of no use.

It is said that she is the eldest lady of the Rongguo Mansion, but she is actually even more shameless than the grandsons-in-law Wang Xifeng and Li Wan.

Lin Liu was stunned, never thought that Madam Xing was not pregnant because Jia Amnesty hadn't been to Madam Xing's room for more than two months?

She was a little dumb, but she had good intentions, but she was defeated by Jia She's dislike for Mrs. Xing.

Lin Liu can't make people get pregnant out of thin air, Jia She doesn't have sex with Mrs. Xing, so naturally she can't conceive a child.

When she gave Mrs. Xing the ability, she never thought about this result.

After all, she has used so many supernatural powers after traveling to the world of Red Mansions, but she has never missed a shot. Who would have thought that there are still couples who can live in different rooms for more than two months?

Mrs. Xing probably sensed Lin Liu's gaze, and turned her head to smile at her.

Lin Liu looked at her who was clearly only [-], but she looked like a woman in her [-]s and [-]s, and even her eyes lost their light, turning into a pool of stagnant water...

She sighed, let's try again today, if she still can't conceive, it can only be said that Mrs. Xing was born without the fate of children.

Afterwards, Lin Liu found an opportunity and used the power for Mrs. Xing again.

But the condition is still that they must have intercourse within half a month.

Let's see if she can seize this opportunity.

Mrs. Xing may have noticed something, and she hardly took her eyes off Lin Liu today. When the maid next to her asked her, Mrs. Xing just shook her head, secretly remembering Lin Liu's previous anomalies in her heart.

For Jia Zheng's [-]th birthday, people from Ningguo Mansion will naturally come to participate.

It was also the first time for Lin Liu to meet the legendary Qin Keqing who had the beauty of both Daiyu and Baochai, who was called the number one beauty in the Red Chamber.

The people from Ningguo Mansion came together, Jia Zhen and Youshi came together, Jia Rong and Qin Keqing followed behind them.

Qin Keqing laughed at Yan Yan, her face was full of the shyness and happiness of a newlywed.

She was born with beauty and beauty, and today she is even more astonishingly beautiful.When she came slowly from outside the door, even Lin Liu, who was used to beauties, couldn't help but look straight at her.

At this time, Jia Rong's eyes were also full of pride, and when she looked at Qin Keqing, there was also a tender feeling between the young couple, and a tenderness that made people blush and heartbeat.

Looking at the undeniable love between the two now, no one would have thought that they would become strangers in the future. Qin Keqing became Jia Zhen's forbidden descendant, and Jia Rong was also viciously cursing his wife's early death when his wife was seriously ill.

But soon, Lin Liu's gaze drifted away from Qin Keqing, and finally landed on a young servant behind her.

This boy, does he look familiar?

She was wondering if she had read it wrong, but the servant who had lowered his head with his chest in his arms suddenly raised his head and met Lin Liu's eyes.

Lin Liu was startled: "Ji..."

Fortunately, at the last moment, she swallowed the words back without revealing Ji Song's identity.

The servant girl next to her heard the voice and approached her and asked, "Miss, what are your orders?"

Lin Liu shook her head: "No, I just saw a mosquito suddenly, but it has already flown away, so it's okay."

The servant girl backed off after hearing the words.

Lin Liu looked at Ji Song again, she never imagined that after a few years, she would see Ji Song behind Qin Keqing.

Ji Song quietly gestured at Lin Liu, and quietly exited the Rongqing Hall.

Lin Liu understood, and then found a chance to let the maid talk to Jia Min, then quietly left from Rongqing Hall, and went to the northeast corner of the garden alone.

When she arrived, Ji Song was already there.

At this time, Ji Song was already seventeen or eighteen years old. He had just passed puberty, and his height suddenly jumped to 1.8 meters. He couldn't see it when he was hunched over before, but now he stood straight in front of Lin Liu, which made people feel a little strange pressure.

Especially when meeting his pair of eyes that have completely faded away, leaving only sharp and scrutinizing eyes, the feeling of being oppressed becomes real.

He was also quite good-looking.

Although Ji Song used the makeup techniques taught by Lin Liu to hide most of the delicacy of his facial features, Lin Liu could still see the superiority of his facial features at a glance.

After so many years, Ji Song has grown into an excellent adult.

Seeing Lin Liu, Ji Song laughed subconsciously: "I didn't expect that after so many years, you would still recognize me."

After all, the two hadn't seen each other for many years, and his face was covered in makeup, which was a thousand miles away from his original appearance, but unless someone was very familiar with him, it was absolutely impossible to recognize his identity.

Ji Song once entered the grandfather's house with his current appearance, but no one in the grandfather's house recognized his identity.

He thought his disguise was good, but Lin Liu recognized him with just one glance.This feeling made him feel novel, but also faintly excited.

Although Ji Song himself didn't know why he was so excited.

After seeing Ji Song, Lin Liu didn't think so much: "We have been together for a long time, and you were more than ten years old when you left. Now your facial features have become more three-dimensional and more delicate than before. What's the difference? Don't forget, I taught you how to make up your makeup."

Ji Song smiled, but did not tell Lin Liu that if he stared at his current appearance, even if he stood face to face with his grandfather and grandmother, they would not recognize his identity at all.

Not even a single familiar word was said.

Lin Liu didn't know what Ji Song was thinking, and asked directly: "Why did you appear in Ningguo Mansion? If I read correctly, you came out behind Qin Keqing before? Are you a servant of the Qin family, or are you from Ningguo Mansion? "

The smile on Ji Song's face disappeared, and he raised his head after a while. After looking around for a week, he was sure that no one heard his voice, and then he said: "After I arrived in the capital, I got in touch with my father's old department. The secret, but found that my father was strict and didn't tell them a word at all."

"Later I disguised myself and went to my grandfather's house."

Speaking of this, Ji Song frowned, "I stayed at my grandfather's house for two years, and a handyman climbed up to my uncle's confidant, but I found something, but my uncle soon suspected it. safety, I can only choose to leave."

But precisely because of that little discovery, Ji Song is very sure that the death of his family has an inescapable relationship with his grandfather.

Thinking of this, Ji Song's eyes dimmed: When Lin Liu reminded him that his grandfather's family might not be trustworthy, although he chose to be cautious, he might not be without a little luck in his heart, but now...

He has become a complete loner.

Looking at Ji Song's eyes, Lin Liu couldn't help sighing inwardly.

Ji Song quickly abandoned his useless emotions and continued to explain: "After I left my grandfather's house, I remembered that you mentioned before that the possible death of my parents might be related to the Ningguo Mansion. After I hesitated, I asked someone Entered the Ningguo Mansion."

"It's just," Ji Song frowned, "Although the management of Ningguo Mansion is extremely chaotic, it is precisely because of this that Jia Zhen and the others are served by maids who are quite fixed and hardly change. I stayed in Ningguo Mansion for almost one year. Yue, but she couldn't get in touch with Jia Zhen at all, so she finally changed direction and sneaked into the Qin family."

Lin Liu frowned: "The Qin family? With what capacity did you enter the Qin family?"

Ji Song lowered his eyelids and said, "I originally wanted to enter the Qin family while the Qin family was buying people, but after inquiring, I learned that the Qin family has changed all the people in the house since more than ten years ago. I have never bought servants from outside again. I heard that even if you want to change servants, you will only pick someone from the Qin family's Zhuangzi."

Thinking of Qin Keqing's identity, Lin Liu didn't find it strange: "After all, the royal family is involved, no matter how careful Qin Ye is, it's normal."

Ji Song didn't think it was a big deal either: "So after I heard the news, I tried to find a way to get in touch with Qin Ye's confidant next to the oiran who was raised outside, and then I confessed to a couple from the Qin family. Dear, this is how Qin Keqing was able to enter Ningguo Mansion as a companion when she got married."

The oiran that Qin Ye raised outside?

Lin Liu thought for a long time, and then pulled Xunren out from the depths of her memory——

If I remember correctly, this is Qin Keqing's biological mother, that is, the so-called "lucky woman" who was pregnant with the orphan of the former prince after the first spring breeze.

Lin Liu curled her lips and said with a smile, "It's hard for you to think of this clue."

Ji Song shook his head: "Thanks to you telling me Qin Keqing's identity back then, otherwise how could I know the relationship between the three families, and how could I get the curve to save the country? Then Qin Ye trusts the oiran very much. After I got in the relationship with the oiran, almost Without being investigated by Qin Ye, he was directly selected together with that couple and became Qin Keqing's companion."

Strange to say, when he was in Ningguo Mansion, it was very difficult for him to get close to Jia Zhen, but now that he is with Qin Keqing, he can see Jia Zhen from time to time. It is also countless times easier for servant girls to inquire about news than before.

Perhaps Lin Liu gave him too many suggestions before, so when Ji Song thought of this, he told her this without hesitation, and then added: "I always feel that this situation is a bit wrong, but I don't think so. clear."

Lin Liu smiled: "Of course you don't understand. After all, you are a human being and not a beast. How could you know what a beast thinks?"

Ji Song looked at Lin Liu in shock: "Why are you suddenly swearing?"

It's not that you can't swear, it's just that Lin Liu has never uttered bad words to people before, and now he not only swears, but also speaks so harshly, which inevitably surprises him.

Lin Liu glanced at Ji Song and sneered: "Because Jia Zhen is a lustful and hungry ghost, and has a habit of getting together, he often appears by Qin Keqing's side, I'm afraid he has bad intentions."

Ji Song was stunned for a moment, and then felt nauseous: "What you said is true?"

Lin Liu squinted at him: "If you don't believe it, after careful observation, can't you still see Jia Zhen looking at Qin Keqing, is it the way a father-in-law looks at his daughter-in-law?"

Lin Liu spoke with such conviction that Ji Song subconsciously believed her words.

only……

"Qin Keqing's superficial identity is the orphan of the former prince. Even if Jia Zhen knows her true identity, how dare she have such thoughts about her?" Ji Song felt ridiculous, "Isn't he too courageous?"

Lin Liu also felt that Jia Zhen was too courageous, even though he knew that Qin Keqing was a fake princess, but the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor didn't know that, once word of his reckless behavior spread, the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor could spare him lightly?

But after thinking about it, it's not without reason.

Lin Liu sighed: "This world is unfair to women, no matter what Jia Zhen did to Qin Keqing, in order to protect the reputation of herself and her natal family, and also for her own life, it is impossible for Qin Keqing to tell the second person about it."

Jia Zhen is also confident.

What's more, Qin Keqing's biological mother used to be an oiran, if it is revealed at this time, no one can say for sure how outsiders will view this matter.

As he said that, Lin Liu smiled, "You are now Qin Keqing's confidant, as long as you remind Qin Keqing and his wife and pay more attention on weekdays, Jia Zhen may not succeed."

Ji Song was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I'm afraid I can't, I can stay in Ningguo Mansion for two months at most, and I will leave after two months to go to Jiangnan. I asked you to come out for this reason, Chen Hu sent me a letter before, saying that the plan is going well. The grain we purchased all over the country has filled the warehouses, and the local grain merchants are only left with some large-scale ones who are still struggling to support them. We should also go to sit in the town It's over."

As he spoke, he looked at Lin Liu, "It doesn't matter whether I go or not. You must not miss the most important part of your plan. The wife of Li Yu, the Jinling grain merchant you mentioned earlier, has already married Chen Hu. Contacted, agreed to stand in front of the stage and be our puppet plan, but the premise is that she wants to have a child."

Lin Liu was stunned for a moment, it turned out that Ji Song met him for this matter.

She nodded: "Even if you don't say it today, I will go to Jinling soon. I have been calculating the expenses of the accounts, and I roughly know that the closing time is the nearest."

Ji Song laughed: "It's really unnecessary for me."

Lin Liu shook his head: "You are also cautious. What are you going to do, tell me when the time comes, let's go back to Jinling together."

Ji Song thought for a while, then nodded: "I will definitely tell you before I leave."

The two exchanged some information with each other before parting.Lin Liu left first, until she was no longer visible, Ji Song slowly walked out from the corner, went around to other places, met many people face to face, and then returned to Qin Keqing.

After all, he is a man, so he can't get close to Qin Keqing's body.

Although he was able to follow Qin Keqing this time, he could not enter Qin Keqing's yard at all and could only stay outside the house.

If Qin Keqing wanted to go to other places, she wouldn't bring any servants with her, at most a few maids.For most of the time, Ji Song stayed outside Qin Keqing and Jia Rong's yard, more like a bodyguard.

But even so, the number of times he met Jia Zhen was still much more than the last time he went to Ningguo Mansion and tried his best to get close to Jia Zhen, that's why he realized something was wrong so quickly.

Because this frequency is too high.

Ji Song lowered his head, and couldn't help thinking about every look and movement he made when he saw Jia Zhen during this period of time when he looked at Qin Keqing.Then the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Jia Zhen looked at Qin Keqing's daughter-in-law in the wrong way, and he almost believed that Jia Zhen had unreasonable thoughts about her daughter-in-law.

Ji Song wanted to remind Qin Keqing and Jia Rong——

Comparatively speaking, he felt that reminding Qin Keqing was not as effective as reminding Jia Rong as her husband and son, but now is not a good time, and Jia Zhen and Jia Rong's father and son have left Rongqing Hall to find Jia Zheng, the birthday star. Weng Heshou went, and he could only stand silently in the corner.

When Lin Liu first came back, she couldn't help but glance at Qin Keqing, but soon she was attracted by the late arrival of the prince Teng's family.

Wang Yushi, the wife of Wang Ziteng, is a woman with high spirits and a bright personality. She has two girls by her side. The older one is only about ten years old, only about two years older than Daiyu; Jia Huan and Jia Cong looked so small, with a little fat on their face, they looked so cute.

Wang Yushi smiled and introduced to Jia Min and the others: "Our girls are all named after Xifeng, one is called Wang Xihuang and the other is called Wang Xiluan. You just call them Huangyao and Luanyyao. So much to pay attention to.”

The two girls were lively and cheerful, and when they saw so many beautiful sisters and sisters in the room, they walked up to Daiyu and the other girls without their mother saying much, and started calling them sisters and sisters affectionately.

Jia's mother likes girls with this kind of temper the most, and she can't help but smile and narrow her eyes when she sees this.

Wang Yushi is also eloquent, and in a short while, all the women in the room, big and small, were amused.Even Jia Min, who had a grudge against the Wang family, couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing.

Although Lin Liu was smiling, she couldn't help but look at Wang Yushi's neck——

If she read it correctly, the blue bruises that inadvertently leaked out under Wang Yushi's high collar should have been beaten by someone, right?

Lin Liu was also not sure if he had read it wrong, so he didn't say much.

But her choice of silence does not mean that others will also be silent.

Just like Mrs. Xing who was sitting opposite Wang Yushi, after she accidentally discovered the blue bruise on Wang Yushi's neck, she immediately exclaimed, as if she was frightened by something, she pointed at Wang Yushi's neck He shouted: "Second Sister-in-law Wang, hurry up and ask your maid to see if there is a bug crawling on your neck?"

As soon as these words came out, the room was silent.

Most girls, even as mothers, are still afraid of bugs.

So after Mrs. Xing mentioned the bugs, the originally peaceful atmosphere froze instantly. Everyone couldn't help but move away from Wang Yushi's direction a few times. Mrs. Wang, who was sitting next to Wang Yushi, even wanted to move away My second sister-in-law.

Wang Yushi glanced at Mrs. Xing, touched his neck in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law She is probably wrong. If there are bugs crawling on my neck, I won't notice it at all, and I can talk to everyone." Talking and laughing? This is when I was at home two days ago, I accidentally fell, and my neck hit the corner of the table, it was not a bug."

Mrs. Xing didn't believe it: "But I saw clearly just now that the blue color on your neck is obviously long..."

"Daughter-in-law, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as dumb!" Jia Mu, who was sitting at the top, said suddenly, her tone was cold, and she looked at Mrs. Xing with frosty eyes, "Your own eyesight is wrong, and you are still like this." Why not give in? Hurry up and apologize to Mrs. Wang!"

Mrs. Xing stood up reluctantly, and apologized to Wang Yushi.

Wang Yushi smiled and waved his hands: "It's all right, I really don't blame sister-in-law She for misunderstanding. When I first dumped, even the two girls in my family would misunderstand it as a bug when they met, and they were too scared to approach me."

Although this topic was brought up by her, the atmosphere in Rongqing Hall never returned to the beginning.

Mother Jia occasionally looked at Mrs. Xing with indifference.

But Mother Jia's eyes were pretty good, and the most frightening thing was actually Madam Wang's eyes looking at her. Even Lin Liu, who had accidentally caught it, couldn't help shivering with the resentment in those eyes.

Mrs. Xing probably poked a hornet's nest.

Jia Min suddenly reached out and grabbed Lin Liu: "Little Qilin, don't look over there."

Lin Liu nodded lightly: "Mother, I know."

This birthday banquet was actually pretty good. Although the meals prepared at the banquet were a bit too greasy for the Lin family, they were all authentic northern dishes, and the thick oily red sauce was really normal.

The guests who came to the birthday banquet today had a good meal.

Because the old lady wanted to talk to Jia Min, the Lin family stayed in Rongguo Mansion until evening, when the sun was about to set, they finally bid farewell to Jia Mu and left Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Min shared a carriage with Lin Liu, Daiyu, and Mao Shou, while Lin Ruhai shared a carriage with Gui Ling and the twins.

On the way, Daiyu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Mother, I also saw the blue bruises on Aunt Wang's neck. They are long and don't look like bugs, but more like whip marks."

The atmosphere in the carriage was stagnant for a long time. Jia Min took a deep breath before explaining, "Daiyu, you can't tell others about this in the future."

Daiyu nodded: "I know. I found out earlier than my aunt, but I never spoke up."

She is a very sensitive little girl, and she knows how abrupt and inappropriate it would be if she suddenly opened her mouth when everyone was talking and laughing, and talked about topics that had nothing to do with everyone's talking and laughing, so she kept holding back and didn't speak.

Just as Jia Min was about to speak, he suddenly thought of something, and turned his gaze to Lin Liu and Maoshou: "Did you two also see the marks on Sister Wang's neck?"

Lin Liu looked down at Maoshou, saw him nodding in a daze, and then nodded: "I saw you shortly after I returned to Rongqing Hall, and I guessed what it was, so I never mentioned it."

Jia Min reached out and touched Maoshou's head, and said, "That's a poor man, don't tell others what happened today, it's not good for Mrs. Wang."

She didn't open her mouth to explain what it was, but she was as sensitive as Daiyu, and guessed the cause of the blue bruise from Jia Min's attitude——

Welts, of course, were made with whips.

After realizing this, Daiyu couldn't help shivering, she turned around and threw herself into Lin Liu's arms like a baby swallow throwing herself into the forest: "Sister, I'm a little scared."
