[Quick Crossing + Red Mansions] I have a strong desire to survive

"We still treat our brother-in-law as really angry with the third sister, and we won't come to the house again." The second sister You smiled gently, and what she said was within Jia Rong's expectations, which made Jia Zhen have to raise her heart, so she made it bigger Du said: "My wife is also a momentary anger. If I don't come, outsiders will really think that we are broken."

Second Sister You lowered her head slightly, and cast a sideways glance at Jia Zhen: "My sister is gone, so it will be a matter of time before we break up."

Jia Zhen hadn't seen this beauty with a delicate and shy posture since Mrs. Dou returned home. For a while, she forgot Mrs. Dou's instructions, and smiled at Second Sister You with a salivating face: "With my sister here, how can I be willing to break up?" Dear." Then she put her hand on the coffee table that Second Sister You leaned against.

"My sister doesn't want to give up her brother-in-law, and I don't want us to see each other again, but it's not right?" Jia Zhen was talking, and the hand on the coffee table had slowly moved to Second Sister You's side, and the whole body They were all crooked by the strap.

The place is so small, Second Sister You naturally noticed Jia Zhen's movements, moved her body uncomfortably to the side, raised her slightly lowered head slightly, and glanced at the serving girl, her eyes were full of anger. Angrily said: "What nonsense is brother-in-law talking about. If there is nothing else, please go back."

The almond eyes on the white goose egg face in front of him were like water, the anger in the eyes was a little shy, like a silent call, Jia Zhen moved closer, half of her body leaned on the table, facing the frivolous second sister You. He laughed and said, "Why did my sister drive me away before I got down to business? What a cruel girl."

Hearing that he had something serious to do, Second Sister You's heart moved slightly, remembering what Uncle Gu had told her to ask Jia Zhen, she sat up straight.Unexpectedly, Jia Zhen didn't sit properly after speaking just now, and her upper body was still tilted towards Second Sister You. Now Second Sister You suddenly sat upright, and the heads of the two of them touched together.

"Oh——" It hurts but it doesn't hurt, but this collision made Second Sister You feel ashamed and annoyed, she glared at Jia Zhen angrily, and half of his body was crushed, and she couldn't help laughing, watching Second Sister Xiang You's eyes became more and more fruity.

Fortunately, I still know that this is someone else's house, and I don't know where and when the pungent Third Sister You will come out. "Second Sister has grown up, so I know I'm in a hurry." Said Second Sister You's face turned red, and she wished she could beat Jia Zhen out immediately.

Still have to endure.

Slightly calming down her breath, Second Sister You raised her face and asked Jia Zhen, "What business is brother-in-law doing?"

Seeing her pretending, Jia Zhen felt amused, sat up straight, coughed and asked, "I heard that my sister is engaged. I am happy for her, but I am also worried about her. I don't know what to do with her." Who is the son of the family. I promised your sister to take care of the men, mother and daughter, and always know which family you will marry in the future, so that I can prepare a dowry for you."

"Ah?" Second Sister You glanced at Jia Zhen in disbelief, and didn't really believe that he came to her home again and again to be angry with Third Sister You, and only cared about who she married.But the word "preparing dowry" was too powerful, and it made Second Sister You's heart move.

At that time, Uncle Gu gave Mrs. You money, saying that it was for Third Sister You's dowry. Second Sister You knew about it and was angry at her mother's partiality.Mrs. You can often say with her mouth: "You will enter the Gu family in the future. How can you lose gold and silver? Your sister is not as lucky as you, so you have to prepare some dowry for confidence. I will not be able to share with you in the future." Go to the mother-in-law's house, and I have to leave some money for the elderly."

Second Sister You couldn't fight anymore.There are still some complaints in my heart: what woman doesn't want to think that her dowry is generous, and she doesn't want to speak harder after she arrives at her husband's house?The indisputable Second Sister You was equally unwilling in her heart.Now that Jia Zhen said that she would prepare a dowry for her, even if it wasn't what she wanted, Second Sister You would love to hear it.

"Thank you brother-in-law for thinking about it, he is the uncle of the Gu family, the servant of the Ministry of Rites." Speaking of her own marriage, the second sister You's face was even more shy, and her watery eyes became blurred.

Jia Zhen felt strange when she heard this: "Why is it him? That man is a few years older than me, and even his son has gone to school... No, I haven't heard that Grandma Gu is not good?"

Grandma Gu is indeed living a good life. Second Sister You is going to marry Uncle Gu as the second wife, and it was agreed before You Shi died, otherwise it would not have happened that You Shi just died and the two got engaged thing.

The timing is so coincidental that it would be impossible for Mrs. Dou not to sigh for Second Sister You—the reason why Uncle Gu wanted to marry Second Sister You as the second wife must be because the third prince saw that the Ningguo Mansion was very concerned about You's illness and thought that The You family was highly valued by the Ningguo Mansion, so they sent a member of the Gu family who was not low in rank in their own camp to marry Second Sister You as the second wife.Does this mean that they plan to use their in-law relationship to trap Jia Zhen?This Second Sister You is really destined to be the second wife.

Looking at Jia Zhen who was beaming with joy, Mrs. Dou was filled with cold water: "You don't have to go to You's house again in the future."

"Why?" Jia Zhen was very puzzled: "Didn't you tell me to go there again that day and talk to the third girl from You's family?"

"What do you want to tell her?" Mrs. Dou looked at Jia Zhen amusedly: "I want to ask if she can marry you after you become a wife?"

Jia Zhen blushed in a rare way: "Madam, that girl is only a few months older than Rong'er." But she is really a beauty.

Mrs. Dou saw through Jia Zhen's thoughts at a glance, and she was even more determined not to let him go to You's house again: "If you say you are not allowed to go, then you are not allowed to go. If I have heard about it once and a half times, there is no need for the master to take action. I will do it myself." I can take care of you."

"What did he do again?" Jia Jing came in from the house without a sound, and Madam Dou lit a candle for Jia Zhen in her heart.Since Jia Jing returned home, he developed a behavior pattern of beating Jia Zhen while eating and sleeping. Every time he heard that Jia Zhen made a mistake, he was the most excited, and he was merciless in beating people.

Jia Zhen was already trembling at this moment: "My son didn't do anything, he did everything according to his wife's orders." She begged and looked at Mrs. Dou, for fear that if Mrs. Dou shook her head, she would not be able to escape the beating. passed.

"Well," thinking about the next things that must be done by Jia Zhen, Mrs. Dou echoed Jia Zhen's words: "He did a good job last time, but the master also knows his temperament, so I have to tell him, Lest he get carried away and make another mistake."

It sounded like there was no ambiguity, but Jia Jing still grasped the point: "Who is he fooling around with again?" After speaking, everyone arrived in front of Jia Zhen, their legs had already been raised, and their feet would fall on Jia Zhen's body in the next step.

The cheap son who has not completed the task needs to be rescued by his mother.Mrs. Dou called out to Jia Jing: "Master doesn't make alchemy anymore, so I should keep my temper. I just want to teach him a lesson. Waiting for ten days and half a month will not delay anything."

Jia Zhen didn't think she had escaped, he knew that Jia Jing would really take this beating to heart, and when he had a problem next time, he would be punished for both crimes.The thoughtful thoughts about Second Sister You in my heart had disappeared quietly before Jia Jing put it on the ground.

"What's the matter, master?" Mrs. Dou remembered that she said that when Jia Zhen went to You's house, it was when Jia Jing went out for a walk. Now that someone came over, it could be that things had progressed.

Jia Jing sat on the main seat by himself, and when the girl served tea and Sun He's family took people out to guard the gate, he turned his gaze to Jia Zhen: "Why hasn't he left yet?"

Jia Zhen was not at all sad to accept such a blatant dislike, Madam Dou said directly: "Jia Zhen must be aware of this matter, the master can just say it." What's the point.

Jia Jing felt a little embarrassed, took a sip of tea, and gave Jia Zhen a hard look.Mrs. Dou gave him this time to adjust, and took a sip of the tea herself, um, the aroma is high, the tea soup is clear, and the teacup made of sweet white porcelain is also a good choice.

Jia Jing, who wanted to put on airs, was defeated again, put down his teacup and said, "There is a message from Xining Prince's Mansion on the door, please go to the banquet with the two of us."

Xining Palace, Mrs. Dou smiled knowingly: "Although we don't have to hold a funeral for our daughter-in-law, it's not easy to go to the banquet. The princess of Xining is really respectful." The prince of Xining has always guarded the border, and the palace only has the princess with the eldest son. Under the circumstances, it is enough to post a post to Jia Jing.

"Feng Tang sent the post." Jia Jing added.

Mrs. Dou's brows were already furrowed: "Is this to make the master refuse?" Isn't Feng Tang a member of the Yizhong Palace, and he is also involved with the Xining Palace.

The situation in this life is more chaotic than previous lives, Madam Dou had to pull herself together.Jia Jing didn't go out for nothing these days, and some things are still clear: "I heard that Feng Tang is following the path of the Xining Palace, thinking of coming out to lead the army again."

It's just a joke, if you want to follow the Xining Palace, you can just write letters to impress the Xining Prince, or ask the prince to come forward, but why are you dealing with the Xining Princess?I'm not afraid that the Prince of Xining, who is far away at the border, will bring his troops back to Beijing when he hears that the princess is dating a foreigner.

Mrs. Dou was taken aback by her own thoughts, thinking about Feng Tang's age and Princess Xining's age, she kept telling herself that it was impossible.Then he asked Jia Jing: "I don't understand the outside world. Could it be that if Feng Tang wanted to lead troops in the northwest, he had to go through the Xining Palace?"

After asking, I realized that my thoughts just now were ridiculous, but there were one or two middle schools: Ning Guogong and Rongguo Mansion had guarded the Northwest successively. If the two mansions had connections in the army, they would most likely stay in the Northwest Army. .If what Feng Tang planned really came true, he must take away more than his own luggage from Beijing.

In the original book, Feng Ziying has a close relationship with Jia Baoyu, and Feng Ziying is Feng Tang's son.

Mrs. Dou, who advocates in several worlds that you can fight without being forced, said that this is the normal mode of seizing the heir.

Now I have to plan with these people and live in the cracks. Madam Dou is not very happy: "Jia Zhen, do you still have contacts with Jia Lian?"

Jia Zhen, who was called suddenly, stood up and replied: "I'm not at home a lot these days, and I haven't heard anyone say that he's looking for me." I'll listen to you honestly, and dare not play with people in Rongguo Mansion anymore.

Mrs. Dou was noncommittal about this, and directly ordered Jia Zhen to find an opportunity to contact Jia Lian.

In fact, I want to know whether Feng Tang has obtained the so-called military contacts from Jia She, Madam Dou can do it through the release of soul power.It's just that Jia Zhen's ability to resist temptation is too poor, and Mrs. Dou feels that it is necessary to strengthen exercise.

After Jia Jing was driven away, Jia Jing was still a little puzzled: "What does Feng Tang's going to the northwest have to do with letting Jia Zhen go to associate with Jia Lian?"

Will Mrs. Dou solve his doubts for him?She directly asked someone to bring Jia Yuan to exchange feelings with her daughter.Seeing that she didn't say anything, Jia Jing knew that he would not get an answer if he asked again, so he also looked at the little girl who was eating his hand while still being silly.

"Why do you always let her eat your hands?" Jia Jing felt that this was not in line with everyone's rules.

Mrs. Dou gave the answer confidently: "She can't even understand the words, so she will be happy as she pleases. When she is older and can understand what others say, she will be bound by the rules. Only in such a short period of time can she Do whatever you want, and the master will take away her pleasure?"

Children eating their hands will affect the mouth shape, but how much can it affect?It's just a simple sucking of one's own finger, and it doesn't interfere with other people's business, so what to do.

It is normal for Jia Jing to be bullied. If Mrs. Dou doesn't bully him one day, there must be something for him to do.Naturally, such a day is not as quiet as when he was practicing Taoism, but Jia Jing never had the idea of ​​picking someone up.

Without him, which man can really put down his meritorious deeds to protect his wife and children?In the past, cultivating Taoism was a helpless choice when there was no hope. Now Mrs. Dou directed him around, but let him see hope. Even if he hit him, he would not be a pick.

The worst would be to re-cultivate the Tao, he has already read those scriptures very proficiently, and it would not take much trouble to re-learn, as I told my wife, earn a little, not for Jia Zhen, but for Jia Rong and Jia Yuan.

Jia Zhen, who didn't know that she had been abandoned by her own father, was sitting with Jia Lian in the Yulu Tea House at this time, and it seemed that things were different. In the teahouse, there is no wine or meat to eat, and no red girls to touch.

Now the two of them don't feel aggrieved at all, and there is a hint of mutual defense in their expressions.Jia Zhen thought it was a pity, so she really sighed: "The second child has guarded against me so far, it really makes my brother feel a little bit chilled."

Jia Lian smiled: "Brother Zhen invited me to the teahouse, isn't it because he is afraid that I will take advantage of your filial piety?" Let's not talk about the second brother.

Hearing the meaning of Jia Lian's words, Jia Zhen didn't feel embarrassed: "You know what kind of temper my master has. If someone who talks too much sees it, I will have to lie on the bed for another half a month. , why bother?"

Jia Lian remembered that before the division of the clan, Jia Zhen was beaten severely by Jia Jing once. Hearing that it was just for disagreeing with the division of the two prefectures, the guard in his eyes disappeared at once, and he raised the teacup in front of him and respected Jia Zhen. Let's say: "Brother replaces wine with tea, I'll make up for my elder brother."

Jia Zhen also took a sip, feeling that it would be better to drink wine into her throat, she let go of her heart and sighed: "I don't know when this day will end. Forget it, don't talk about my business, nothing is going well. But how are you doing now?"

Jia Lian also sighed when he heard that he was unhappy: "What else can I do? The public treasury of the mansion and the private treasuries of the old ladies and ladies have been looted, and they are already poor. They live on pawns every day."

Jia Zhen was a little unconvinced: "I'm afraid this is the second wife's idea of ​​frugality. Didn't they find a lot of things from the servant's yard at that time? You can live with those things. Generally, there are shops and Zhuangzi in your house. Now it’s time for renters to be sent up again, so it’s hard to be like this.”

It’s okay not to talk about this, but Jia Lian was so angry when he mentioned this, he talked about Mrs. Wang’s layoffs and embezzlement in the name of frugality, and finally said angrily: “If everyone is frugal, it’s okay. Forget it, but the appointment of Big Brother Zhu has to follow the usual practice. It’s a total of 3 taels of silver! But relying on her to be in charge of the family, she will spend all the money from the public on the second room.”

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Jia Zhen and said enviously, "Brother Zhen, you are the best in your family. You are the only brother. Don't worry about others taking your things and treating you as a human being."

Jia Zhenxin said that I was suffering even more. Now I can't say what I have said, and I can't compare with my son in every way. Where can I reason?On the surface, she cared about Jia Lian: "If that's the case, you should walk around more outside. It's not that I'm making trouble, but if the second wife is always in charge, you will..."

Hearing that he had unfinished business, Jia Lian hurriedly asked what was going on.Jia Zhen gave him an analysis, not to mention that Mrs. Wang is still in charge of the Rongguo Mansion now. The most reliable in-laws outside the mansion are the Wang family and the Lin family. The Wang family is Mrs. Wang's natal family. The relationship is good.If the two families reached out, they would help the second room first.So Jia Lian can't pin his hopes on those two families.As for Xijue, to put it bluntly, Jia Amnesty is not yet forty, when will it fall on Jia Lian?

It would be better for Jia Lian to go out and walk around more. Anyway, Jia She is the one who attacked the noble in the Rongguo Mansion. Others will always sell his face as the eldest son of the eldest son. Maybe there will be a chance at any time. It is better than letting Jia Zhu compete everywhere in the mansion. powerful.

After Jia Lian heard this, he remained silent for a long time, and drank a few cups of tea by himself.Since Jia Zhen didn't know why Mrs. Dou let him contact Jia Lian, she could only figure out the internal relationship of the Rongguo Mansion by herself, so as not to go out with Jia Lian for nothing, and Mrs. Dou thought he was incapable of doing things.

"Brother, you know what kind of temperament my master is. You don't care about my business. General Feng came to visit him a few days ago and let him do it. General Feng asked kindly. I, do you want to go to the army with him? Is this a way?" What Jia Lian wanted to talk about was this. He didn't dare to tell Jia She about this matter. He kept it in his heart for a few days, and today is just right. Just ask Jia Zhen, a good brother.

Jia Zhen squinted her eyes, and asked in confusion: "General Feng? Is it Feng Tang? He hasn't recovered himself yet. How can he take you to the army? If you want to serve in the army, why don't you go to the army?" I beg Wang Ziteng, he can be half of Jingying now."

Jia Lian sneered: "Brother, why are you being mean again? You yourself said just now that Wang Ziteng would choose between our two rooms. How could the second wife just stand by and watch me stand out?"

Perhaps it was during this period that Mrs. Wang's harshness became very angry. When Jia Lian talked about Mrs. Wang, she no longer had the same admiration as before.Jia Zhen was still thinking about the fact that Feng Tang wanted to take him to the army, so she asked, "Even if you can't get in the way of Wang Ziteng, you are not bad with General Feng. He was brought out by our two houses, and he proposed it on his own initiative." Yes, I will always take care of you. It's just that he has obtained the letter, so don't be happy for nothing."

Speaking of this, Jia Lian was also a little frustrated: "General Feng didn't know what he said to our master that day. Afterwards, the master didn't even talk to him. I was the one who sent him out of the mansion. Hearing what General Feng said, he replied Qi Qi may not be in Beijing, but is going to the northwest."

Jia Zhen felt that the news was very exciting, and after talking with Jia Lian for a while, she left because she was afraid of Jia Jing. After returning home, she went to Ningxuan Hall to report the news to Mrs. Dou.

Unlike Jia Zhen who only thought the news was explosive, Mrs. Dou saw through the essence of the matter at once.That is, Feng Tang did not succeed with Jia Amnesty, so he wanted to persuade Jia Lian to go to the northwest with him.At that time, in order to save the life of his only son, Jia Amnesty had to present the real thing to Jia Lian.

After arriving in the Northwest, how does Jia Lian, a son who is unfamiliar with the place, know how to use contacts?It is unavoidable to discuss it with Feng Tang, an elder who has the kindness of knowing you. At that time, the military contacts of Rongguo Mansion will be in hand.

What a calculation.I just don't know if this was Feng Tang's brainstorm when he couldn't understand Jia She, or if he got the instructions before going to Rongguo Mansion.No matter which one it is, it is much easier than simply taking something out of Jia She's hand.

"How did you tell Jia Lian?" Madam Dou asked Jia Zhen.

Jia Zhen kept thinking after seeing Mrs. Dou's hearing, how could she not know that this news was exactly what the wife wanted?He spoke in a louder voice, with full confidence: "Now that the two houses in the mansion are pregnant with ghosts, I advise Lian'er to go to see the world with General Feng. Once Lian'er really gets ahead in the army, the mansion will be destroyed." It's going to be fun."

Mrs. Dou spat on his face: "Jia Lian left Beijing today, and tomorrow the mansion will get his death letter. When that bastard Jia She comes to make trouble, you go and tell him not to be tired." Me and the master."

Did you say something wrong again?Jia Zhen looked at her own mother with a puzzled face, feeling that spitting in the face was nothing, as long as she told herself what was wrong.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Dou also looked at Jia Zhen thoughtfully, and the elements of calculation in her eyes should not be too obvious. If Jia Zhen swallowed what she wanted to ask, her whole body would feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. The one that doesn't come out.

"Madam?" Jia Zhen tentatively called out, hoping that Mrs. Dou would realize that she was her own son.

"Oh," Mrs. Dou sighed, "You are still in the period of filial piety, no matter how good the method is, you can't do it." After finishing speaking, she shook her head regretfully, and then sighed.
