Honglou Xing

Jin Rong called Xiang Lian Yu Ai and others to Master She.Jia She's eyes widened, these distant relatives of the Jia family who had never seen the world all knelt down and confessed their mistakes, and truthfully explained what they did with Xue Pan.

Jia Amnesty didn't go to Xue Pan or Xue's family, but called Jia Zheng.After Jia Amnesty told the story, Jia Zheng was also quoted as witness.

Xue Pan is the son of Jia Zheng's wife and sister, which is his relative.What happened to the nephew, and he even made a scene with his elder brother. Jia Zheng is a person with a good face, so where should he put his face?

Jia Zheng really couldn't adapt.In the past, he had always been better than his elder brother, regardless of manners or knowledge, he almost stomped on his elder brother in everything.Fortunately, his eldest brother has become the servant of the official department, not to mention the limelight, but he still pinches his little tail everywhere on his side.

Jia Zheng was ashamed and indignant. At this moment, he felt ashamed as if his clothes had been stripped and hung in front of everyone.He hated, hated his daughter-in-law for always holding back.In addition to the matter of Wang Xifeng that embarrassed him before, now there is the matter of Xue Pan.

When Jia Zheng thought of a manly man running rampant in the Jia family's school, he even slept with countless Jia family children.At this moment, Jia Zheng really wanted to slap Xue Pan to death.

Jia's family is the family of bells and tripods for generations, it is beyond words, how can we commit ourselves to a man because of some small wealth.

Shame, shame, shame!

Jia Zheng gritted his teeth with hatred, he had nothing to give up, and raised his head to discuss with his eldest brother Jia She: "Brother, what do you want to do?"

"Second brother, what do you think?" Jia She looked at him with a smile.

Jia Zheng slapped the table and said angrily: "All those involved will tell the patriarch, and they will be kicked out of the school with dozens of boards. As for nephew Xue, he is a relative. We don't care about it. Just leave it to her mother."

Jia Amnesty was obviously partial to Jia Zheng's arrangement. "As far as I know, Xue Pan should be the one most responsible for this matter. Why did he get a lighter punishment? Who doesn't know that his mother is kind, if he can control him, he still has today?"

Jia Zheng looked at Jia Amnesty in surprise, his face felt like he had been slapped in the face, and it was burning hot.The eldest brother deliberately found out this kind of thing to find him, and his purpose was not so casual.It turned out that he just wanted to take advantage of his own shortcomings, laugh at him, ridicule him, and despise him... Sure enough, he is worthy of being his big brother, with a villainous heart and a small belly!

Jia Zheng stared at Jia Amnesty unhappily, with disgust in his eyes. "Then what do you want to do, big brother?"

Jia Shehui glanced at Jia Zheng, and slightly raised the corners of his lips: "How can a child of the Jia family allow him to be obscene? If he is wrong, he is wrong. And he has done such a shameful thing, how dare he stay in Rongfu? Originally, their family came to Beijing. , is also staying here temporarily, after such a long time, the Xue family’s old house should have been taken care of, so it’s not an exaggeration to ask them to move out?”

Jia Zheng looked at Jia Zheng in surprise: "You want to drive them away? Orphans and widows, brother, why are you so cruel, you can really say such things."

"Hmph, what a joke. When he was a jerk in school, did he ever think about whether he should speak?" Jia She sneered, unable to understand Jia Zheng's thinking. "Second brother, make it clear that he is the one who made the mistake first."

Jia Zheng choked and stopped talking.

"There is no other reason for calling you here today, just to let you know. After all, Mrs. Xue is the younger sister of the siblings. Out of courtesy, I should tell you in advance." Jia She said in a flat tone.

Jia Zheng looked at Jia Amnesty in surprise, unable to accept his arrogant attitude at all.He co-authored him to call himself here just to inform himself, never thought of discussing it?Just now he asked himself what he was going to do with it... Jia Zheng was angry and ashamed, feeling like a monkey who was being played around by his elder brother without knowing it.

"Brother, you can't finish this family with just one word. Whether Xue's family stays or goes depends on what mother wants." Jia Zheng said angrily.

Jia She glanced at him, smiled, and drank tea leisurely, without saying much.

At the same time, Mrs. Xing informed Jia's mother about Xue Panzhuan and Jia's school.

Mother Jia frowned and said nothing, she had heard about the kid's idiot, but she didn't expect that the boy was so stupid that he could be with a man... Mother Jia frowned even deeper, she put her left hand on the wrist of her right, and rubbed Wearing the new jade bracelet.

Xing's eyes fell there, seeing the round and pure color of the jade bracelet, one could tell it was a high-quality item.I've never seen Jia Mu wear it before, it seems that Aunt Xue sent it to please Jia Mu.

Mother Jia's frown gradually widened, as if she had thought of a solution. "This child has lost his father since he was a child. It's pitiful. His mother can't bear his suffering, so he is what he is today. However, I think this child's heart is still good, but he needs a good person to teach/teach him. How should I say it?" They are also children, so don’t punish them harshly. Of course, the place where they study must not be dirty, so I simply tell them not to go to school in the future. Take them home, so that they can be disciplined!”

"The old ancestor is really kind. The school has to ask the patriarch to discuss with the lords. It's not good for us women to intervene. Finally, the nephew of the Xue family, I think it is better to be disciplined. However, this discipline is not good. It's hard to say, if there is a next time, once everyone knows about it, wouldn't we be ashamed to follow?" Xing said euphemistically.

Mother Jia nodded, basically agreeing with what Xing said.

Mrs. Xing laughed, and said again: "This child is really, it's not that there is no concubine in the family, why is this. It can be seen that he is really a fool, he has never looked down on our Jia family. If he is a little It's a bit taboo, why do you treat the children of Jia's family as playthings? I heard that all the children who look similar in the school have been checked by him. Mother, you know that when I heard the news, I was shocked and even There was a little bit of luck."

"A fluke?" Mother Jia asked in surprise.

"Fortunately, Baoyu and Lan Ge'er are not in the school now. Baoyu is handsome, but Lan Ge'er is also delicate. Once that idiot Xue has any wrong thoughts, Baoyu is simple-minded, and the result... oh, I dare not think about it." Xing looked at Jia Mu and sighed.

Jia Mu frowned deeply, her whole face was clouded, she didn't know what she was thinking.

Seeing that the effect had been achieved, Mrs. Xing continued with her lips curled up, "Don't take it seriously, my ancestor. I just said it casually. Thinking about it, he wouldn't dare to mess with our Baoyu. He couldn't even ignore Baoyu?"

Mother Jia narrowed her eyes, and there was a stern flash in her eyes.It was fine if Mrs. Xing didn't say it just now, but when she said that, Jia's mother felt that Xue Pan was capable of hooking up with Baoyu.Baoyu didn't look like a child and said that Xue Pan was such a bastard that even his mother didn't pay attention to him, and he was a fool who had hurt someone's life. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he might have that kind of thought for Baoyu .

Jiamu thought for a long time, and finally raised her head and asked Xing: "What do you think?"

The Xing family wondered: "It depends on what the ancestors mean. They are relatives of the younger siblings. It's not good for me to make decisions on my own."

"Just tell me, don't be afraid, I'll back you up." Mother Jia said in a stiff tone.

Xing's attitude was suddenly solemn, and he uttered three words: "You can't stay."

Mother Jia shook her body, and after a while, she took off the bracelet from her hand and threw it on the ground, the exquisite jade bracelet was instantly smashed to pieces. "If you don't stay, don't stay!"

Mrs. Wang's body has recovered a bit, and now she can get out of bed and walk a few steps in a daze.The blows and humiliation I received a few days ago have gradually been forgotten.

Mrs. Wang tried her best to adjust her mentality, and gradually made herself recognize the current situation.If the housekeeper Quan doesn't come back, she might as well focus on being "honest" now, because her precious son is still favored, she can fully please and rely on Jia's mother.Not only Baoyu, but she also has a daughter who is about to become a leader in the palace.

Mrs. Wang was very excited when she thought of the news that Yuan Chun asked someone to deliver from the palace last time.Now the queen intends to promote Yuan Chun, and wants her to serve the emperor.The queen is the lord of the six palaces. With her supporting her daughter, is she afraid that she will not have a bright future?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang finally smiled happily.If her daughter can really become a concubine, she doesn't have to fight now, she can trample on the big house for the rest of her life just because of this.

"Ma'am," Zhou Rui's family entered the door with a sad face, looking at his master in embarrassment, not knowing how to speak.

Mrs. Wang happily invited Zhou Rui's family to sit beside her. "What's the matter with you?"

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was in a good mood, Zhou Rui's family was a little surprised, and didn't know how to speak.

Mrs. Wang looked at her wonderingly, and urged Zhou Rui's family to speak quickly.

Zhou Rui's family lowered their heads, stood up hurriedly, and said to Mrs. Wang through tears: "The old lady asked me to inform my wife, and ask Xue's family to move out as soon as possible."

"What?" Mrs. Wang stood up in surprise, shaking her body, and subconsciously supported the table with her hands to stabilize her body.

Zhou Rui's family hurriedly helped Mrs. Wang to lie down.Mrs. Wang couldn't lie still, she anxiously asked Zhou Rui's family to tell what happened.

"Uncle Xue had some romantic affairs in the school, and the old man and the old lady found out. I don't know how the old lady told the old lady. Anyway, as soon as she came out, the old lady called me out angrily. ordered this."

"You were not very capable before, why can't you even find out what they are saying now?" Mrs. Wang asked urgently.

Zhou Rui's family was also in a dilemma: "Madam, our situation is not the same as before. In the past, Madam, you were in control of the important affairs in the house, and everyone had to be in awe. Now, the majesty lies with the eldest wife. All these low servants It’s all nonsense and one-sided. I ask whatever I ask, and it’s a great favor for them to give me a glance.”

Mrs. Wang was so angry that she slapped her thighs: "You bastard! What a bitch, you're just a lowly slave, and you're so inferior to me!"

"Ma'am, these are all trivial matters, what should the Xue family do now?" Zhou Rui's family asked anxiously.

"I don't know where to go, that's my own sister!" Mrs. Wang was so angry that her lips turned purple, and she was already so sad and angry that she didn't know what expression to put on. "Quick, hurry up and invite the master."

As soon as Mrs. Wang finished speaking, she heard someone shouting that the second master had come.

Mrs. Wang got up tremblingly, and seeing Jia Zheng approaching, Mrs. Wang hurried over, rushed towards Jia Zheng's direction, and burst into tears.

Jia Zheng frowned and hugged Mrs. Wang who was rushing over, stabilized his body, pushed Mrs. Wang away, and pulled her to sit on the couch.

"Master, do you know that Pan'er—"

"Well, my elder brother told me about the assholes he did in the school. Look at your nephew's ability, it doesn't matter if he is fooling around outside, but it's insulting to the gentlemen to pour such coquetry into the school." Jia Zheng scolded.

Mrs. Wang wiped her tears and said: "I was also surprised when I heard it. I never expected him to be such a jerk. But at least he is a child. My sister is alone and lives at home with a pair of children. It is not easy. It is a mistake. It is a mistake. Change it." That's it. How could the ancestors send them out so cruelly? My sister came to Beijing to join me, but how can I say to drive her out!"

"What, mother told you to drive them out?" Jia Zheng asked in surprise.

Madam Wang nodded. "I heard that my sister-in-law went to my ancestors to talk about it, and I don't know what she said."

Jia Zheng gritted his teeth angrily and clenched his fists. "Brother is clearly putting me together. What you say to 'discuss' with me here is a decision that has been made long ago. It's fine to fool me. He even asked my sister-in-law to go to the ancestors to gossip first, which made our husband and wife keep talking. There is no chance to beg for mercy. You are really ruthless to the end! What kind of brother and what kind of sister-in-law are you!"

Mrs. Wang will only hate Jia Zheng more than Jia Zheng: "Master, what I said earlier. Their husband and wife have long seen our second wife jealous, and they have been jealous for a long time. I think their husband and wife have already plotted against us, and they must have planned It's been a long time. Otherwise, how could our husband and wife have fallen into this situation. Master, we can no longer be charitable, and we still care about brotherhood, and they don't care about it!"

Jia Zheng muttered with a dark face, "Got it!"

Mrs. Wang cried again, she just took some money from her younger sister and sent it to the palace, now she is asked to send her sister away, how could she have the face to speak?

Jia Zheng was also annoyed: "That nephew of yours should also settle down. Look at what he has provoked. If it spreads, where will our Jia family's children face us?"

"Master, those I heard are all distant relatives, and their families are poor, what's the matter? Besides, these children are not doing their jobs properly, and they are greedy for small profits. They must think that my nephew is good-looking and generous. It's cheap to hook up. Think about it, if this thing is not what you want, can it be done? Master, you can't believe the words of the big house. You don't understand what ghosts they have for us? "

Jia She frowned and thought for a while, then nodded, what his wife said was not unreasonable.When the eldest brother talked to himself just now, in order to embarrass himself even more, his words must have been exaggerated.

"The important thing now is the old lady's side, how to persuade her." Mrs. Wang rubbed her hands nervously, wondering why.

Jia Zheng had no choice but to sigh and lay down on the bed without speaking.

"Why don't we go and beg?" Mrs. Wang looked at her husband.

Jia Zheng couldn't bear to lose face, and said angrily: "I want to go to you, he is not my bastard nephew."

Mrs. Wang was also annoyed when she heard this, and cried: "Master, does this despise me? We are husband and wife, and my nephew is your nephew, why is it only mine."

Jia Zheng frowned and glanced at Mrs. Wang, turned around and didn't speak, and didn't bother to look at him.It was boring enough for him to stare at the files of the household department every day, but when he came back, he would be bothered by these messy things at home, and he had to listen to his wife crying.Why is he so tired every day, there is no place that can teach him to feel clean and comfortable.

Jia Zheng closed his eyes for a while, listening to Mrs. Wang still crying.He got up angrily and yelled at her, then quickly put on his shoes and went to Aunt Zhao's place.

Mrs. Wang stopped crying after being repeatedly comforted by Zhou Rui's family, her face was full of hatred.He hated the big house for persecuting schemes, hated Jia Zheng for being ruthless, and even more hated himself as a daughter-in-law in such a family.

"Master is away worrying about his official business, and when he comes back, he encounters this kind of thing again. It's okay to be bothered. Don't be angry, wife. Give him a few days, and he will come back to coax your wife." Zhou Rui's family persuaded.

Mrs. Wang sneered, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said in despair: "I don't count on him either, never." Mrs. Wang paused and then looked up at Zhou Rui's family, "Think about it, I have been married for more than 20 years Why, did the master ever care about me and the affairs of the back house? He never cared about these things. Today I lost my composure, and the blows came one after another. I couldn't help it for a while... just forget it."

After Madam Wang finished speaking, she got up and went to Jia's mother to intercede.Unexpectedly, the door was turned away, and Jia's mother refused to see her on the grounds of being tired and resting.

Mrs. Wang immediately understood Jia Mu's attitude towards this matter.After hesitating for a while, she finally walked towards Rikain.

Today, Xue Baochai likes to stay in the house all day long, depressed and silent, buried in doing some needlework.

Xue Pan couldn't stand it, so he made a pair of rabbits today to amuse his sister.Baochai liked these fluffy things, and was happy to hide in the house and play with them.Aunt Xue saw that their brother and sister had a good relationship, so she sat down and drank tea with a smile.

When Mrs. Wang entered the door, she saw the situation of their family of three, her eyes darkened, and her heart became more and more embarrassing.

When Aunt Xue, Xue Baochai and Xue Pan saw Mrs. Wang coming, they got up to greet her and invited her to sit down.

Mrs. Wang couldn't bear their enthusiasm, and sighed again.

Xue Pan hurriedly asked: "Auntie, what's wrong with you?"

Mrs. Wang looked at Xue Pan reproachfully: "Don't kneel down and admit your mistake!"

Aunt Xue and Baochai were puzzled and asked Mrs. Wang what happened.Mrs. Wang wept and told them the story.

Aunt Xue burst into tears after hearing this, raised her head and patted Xue Pan on the back, beating and scolding, but she didn't have much strength in beating her.

Xue Pan hurriedly apologized for his mistake.

The crowd quarreled for a while before calming down a bit.

Mrs. Wang left Aunt Xue to talk alone, and sighed: "You also know what Dafang has in mind, but this time they got hold of the matter and sued me severely in front of the old lady."

Aunt Xue hurriedly took Mrs. Wang's hand, and said very apologetically, "I have troubled my sister."

"It doesn't matter if I was scolded a few times. It's just that the old lady was instigated by them. The small matter became bigger and harder to handle. I'm afraid that the old lady may misunderstand you. Everything else is fine. I'm afraid that the old lady thinks Baochai has such an elder brother, even her temperament is questioned. If so, then her marriage with Baoyu—”

"Nie Zong, you know he's hurting his sister, let's see if I don't beat him to death!" Aunt Xue couldn't wait to hear this, she was about to get up and clean up Xue Pan.

Mrs. Wang hurriedly grabbed him, and said: "Okay, the matter has come to an end, let's discuss a solution. I told you earlier that there is no second daughter-in-law in my eyes except your Baochai. This It’s not that we have no room for turning around.”

"How to say?" Aunt Xue looked at Mrs. Wang.

"Let's retreat. My sister might as well move back to the old house tomorrow for a few days. Don't take everything away, just bring a few things you need, and live for ten and a half months. The ancestors see you orphans and widows If she leaves so quickly, she must be soft-hearted and can't bear it. At this time, I will explain the whole thing to her well, and say some good things, and worry about her inviting you back? When the time comes, the ancestors will call someone in person Please come, what kind of status is that!"

Aunt Xue nodded, feeling that her sister's suggestion was very reasonable, she nodded in agreement and thanked Mrs. Wang at the same time.When Mrs. Wang was about to leave, Aunt Xue did not forget to ask someone to bring some gold, silver and pearls that she had just acquired to Mrs. Wang.

The next day, Xue's family moved out of Lixiangyuan.Mrs. Wang sadly went to report to Jia Mu, while obediently apologizing for her mistakes, while vividly describing the hardships of Xue's mother and son.Jia's mother suddenly softened, showing remorse.Seeing this, Mrs. Wang wanted to persuade her again, but she might be able to persuade Jia Mu immediately.

At this time, the Xing family came suddenly.

Madam Wang bit her lips angrily and resentfully, staring at Mrs. Xing who entered the door.

Xing Shi is now more than three months pregnant, her belly is slightly bulging.She didn't have any special reaction, except that she walked a little more carefully, and her pace was as quick and steady as before.

When Jia Mu looked at the belly, she saw hope, and cheerfully called Mrs. Xing to come and sit next to her, and asked her what her appetite was and what she ate, and told her what to pay attention to.

Mrs. Wang watched with cold eyes, feeling sour in her heart.I also remembered that when she was pregnant, Mother Jia took care of and greeted her so enthusiastically.But that was ten years ago.Mrs. Wang's eyes immediately fell on Xing's stomach with jealousy.Cursing sourly in her heart: She is really a whore/baby, old and unscrupulous, at this age, she can still get pregnant.

Sensing that Mrs. Wang was not just being kind, Xing glanced at her, sneered in her heart, and didn't bother to know her as well.Mrs. Xing turned around and said to Jia's mother, "Dongfu messenger, her grandma's health is not very good."

Jia's mother immediately thought of Qin Keqing's delicate and beautiful face. It is rare to have a good daughter-in-law, with a good appearance, a clever mouth, and a quick way of doing things.Jiamu frowned and said, "It's a pity to be young. Go and have a look when you have time." After Jiamu finished speaking, she looked at Mrs. Xing's stomach, and then said to Mrs. Wang, "Go, you My sister-in-law is pregnant, so it's not good to get close to patients."

Mrs. Wang hurriedly said "Yes", and glanced at Mrs. Xing jealously.

Xing looked at her with squinted eyes, but smiled silently.

Within two days, Qin Keqing, the grandma of Rong in Dongfu, died of illness.The father and son Jia Zhen and Jia Rong in the Ningguo Mansion wanted to hold a big funeral, but You Shi pretended to be sick and refused to arrange the funeral of his daughter-in-law.Jia Zhen had no choice but to bring her son to beg Xing Shi with a thick skin.

Upon hearing the news, Jia Amnesty rushed over with lightning speed.He first blocked the mouths of Jia Zhen and his son: "Don't patronize the dead, don't care about the life of others. Whoever loves the wife, she is pregnant with a child, helping you with the funeral? Do you think it is appropriate?"

Jia Zhen hurriedly apologized and smiled: "You have misunderstood. I didn't come here to beg my aunt, but the second girl we begged. She is also a good hand, isn't she?"

Xing quickly refused: "She is a girl who has not left the court, she is not suitable, you go back."

Jia She raised his eyebrows: "Did you hear me, come back!"

Jia Zhen and Jia Rong looked at each other and sighed helplessly.Unexpectedly, when the father and son went out of the house, they turned around and went to ask Mrs. Wang.Mrs. Wang didn't know what to think, so she simply agreed to this matter.

Ningguo Mansion is truly a 'noble and noble family', and white affairs are better than happy ones.This funeral was handled like a thunderclap on the ground, shaking half of the sky in the capital.

Jia Amnesty wrote a memorial on the issue of Ningguo Mansion's overstepping the rules in organizing funerals, but the title belonged to someone else.Jia Amnesty then took the booklet and threw it in front of Jia Zhen, scaring Jia Zhen and Jia Rong and his son. "Look at what you've done. It's just a daughter-in-law's funeral. It's so out of order. This time, someone is jealous. I will refer to you. Fortunately, I saw it. I asked my relationship to suppress it." day."

Jia Zhen and Jia Rong's father and son were so frightened that the shit broke out, and they begged for Jia's pardon.
