The Red Mansion's Late Welcome Spring

As soon as Uncle Xing's family arrived in the capital, Wang Shanbao, who was going to pick them up, took them back to the newly bought residence. Uncle Xing and his wife were a little stunned when they walked inside. It was beyond their expectation, and they couldn't help being a little surprised and a little happy. Along the way, they only heard Wang Shanbao say that this house was prepared for them by the elder sister's stepson Jia Lian and the niece and son-in-law whom they had never met. They thought it was just a small courtyard. At most, it is enough for their family of three to live in. Unexpectedly, this courtyard occupies a lot of land, and my daughter will have her own small courtyard in the future.

"Husband, it seems that the eldest sister is really living a very good life in Jia's house. It's hard for her to miss us all these years." Aunt Xing's family name is Hong. When she was in Xuzhou, her neighbors would call her Hong Da Niang or Hong Da sister in law.

"Hey! When she married into the Rongguo Mansion with most of the family property, my two younger sisters and I complained about her a lot, but the more we have seen in the past two years, the more we know the dirty things in the high school. My sister’s resentment has long since disappeared, and now she just suddenly wrote a letter saying that we are going to come to Beijing, and she immediately helped with these trivial matters. I heard people say that everything in the capital is expensive, especially the place where you live is priceless Buy it, I think it cost two juniors a lot of money to come to this house, right?" Uncle Xing said with a shy heart.

"Father, mother, this place is so big, there are more than a dozen rooms alone." Xing Xiuyan, who had just walked around the front and back of the house, bounced up to her parents and said with a smile.

"It's fine if you like it, what about Ya'er? Why didn't you follow me?" Hong collected her mood and looked at her daughter with a smile.

"She sorts things in the back room, and her parents must live in the second courtyard, so of course the back is my residence." Xing Xiuyan couldn't help but feel extremely happy when she thought that she would have a separate courtyard.

"I also asked my sister-in-law Wu to go to the kitchen to see if there is anything to cook. We will have something to eat first, and then go to bed early. Wang Shanbao said let's have a good rest at home and go to the sister's place tomorrow." Uncle Xing said in the Said aside.

"Are you going to see Eldest Aunt tomorrow? Mom, do you think Eldest Aunt will like me?" Xing Xiuyan has never met Mrs. Xing, but only knows that her family has relatives in the capital who give gifts to each other every year. The clothes on her body are It was made from one of the fabrics that my aunt gave me last year.

"I will definitely like it. Your eldest aunt has been married to Jia's family for more than ten years, and she finally had a son at the beginning of this year. In previous years, she most often mentioned the girl who just married last year, but I think tomorrow should be I haven't seen her yet." Hong nodded and replied, she and her husband only had this daughter, so they naturally felt that anyone who saw her would love her.

"Really? That's a pity. By the way, Sister Baoqin said that they are also related to the Rongguo Mansion. Will you meet them tomorrow?" Xing Xiuyan asked again after feeling a little lost.

"It's just a matter of connection. You didn't see who came to pick them up today. I heard they came from Xue's house, unlike Wang Shanbao who came from Jia's house." Uncle Xing said lightly.

Uncle Xing and the Hong family both knew that the Rongguo Mansion had already separated, and when they knew that the eldest sister-in-law had handed over the title to others, they felt sorry for Mrs. Xing in their hearts. Their family members said that the current situation in Rongguo Mansion is that it is better to separate the family than not to separate the family. They thought that since the eldest sister-in-law made such a decision, they must have thought it through carefully. Besides, their eldest sister's ability is not good. I'm afraid it's not easy to interfere in it, and seeing that they are Mrs. Xing's natal family, they don't have status or status, and naturally they don't have the ability to stand up and speak out, so the couple sighed at each other and stopped mentioning this matter It was a pity for them, but it wasn't until later that the eldest sister seemed to be getting more and more at ease, that they truly believed in the elder sister-in-law's decision.

"Oh!" Xing Xiuyan replied sadly.

"I'm going to Jia's mansion tomorrow, and I think it's probably impossible not to visit Mrs. Shi, girl, I heard from your aunt that there is a precious phoenix egg in Rongguo mansion, who is always good at talking sweetly, if you run into him tomorrow, You must remember to stay away from him, we are just a small family, and we can't climb up to the serious sons of the Rongguo Mansion. If there is any mistake, your mother and I will be sad. You know, I have never sent you off. The idea of ​​you going to be a concubine in a rich family." Uncle Xing suddenly thought of an important matter, so he hurriedly told his daughter a few more words.

"I know, I'll be sensible." Xing Xiuyan replied with a nonchalant smile, she's not the kind of little girl who really stays at home, how can she not know the importance?And she can't look down on a man who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun.

Uncle Xing thought about it, and felt that his daughter's wisdom was very reliable, so he didn't say any more.

Early the next morning, the carriage that Mrs. Xing sent to pick up Uncle Xing arrived. Uncle Xing's family got into the carriage, and after shaking for an unknown amount of time, there was a voice from outside the curtain of the carriage asking them to get off. Uncle and others got out of the car, but immediately another pair of young men and women stepped forward to salute them, that is, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng. Jia Lian said to Uncle Xing with a smile on his face: "Uncle, aunt, there are not many rules in our family. Please don't be restrained, my wife is waiting for you in the house."

"My wife originally wanted to come out to pick you up in person, but the third brother kept crying, and my wife was really worried, so I had to let my second master and I come to meet you first, and please don't mind my uncle." Wang Xifeng also said with a smile .

"It's okay, it's okay, the child is still young, it's inevitable, this is my daughter, Xiuyan, I've met your cousin and sister-in-law soon." Uncle Xing quickly waved his hands to express his indifference, and let Xing Xiuyan behind him come forward Greetings.

"Xiuyan met my cousin and sister-in-law." Xing Xiuyan politely greeted Jia Lian and his wife.

"Oh! This is Xiuyan's cousin? She also looks like a fairy beauty. I thought that the girls in our family were already very strong. Now when I see my cousin, I know what it means to have someone beyond others and a sky beyond heaven." Wang Xifeng He took Xing Xiuyan's hand cordially and said with a smile.

"Isn't the little girl's family similar? This girl has never seen anything in the world, how can she compare with the girls in your family?" Hong replied politely.

"Don't talk too much, go in quickly, I'm afraid the eldest sister is in a hurry." Uncle Xing thought about seeing Mrs. Xing earlier, and seeing that the women had no intention of moving to another place, he reminded him.

"That's right! Once you're in the house, you can chat whatever you want. The second sister will come back soon, and our house will be even more lively. I haven't seen our house so lively for a long time." Jia Lian laughed.

After hearing Jia Lian's words, the group went to the main hall.

Mrs. Xing hugged her son, coaxing her in the room, and looked outside the door with an expression of eagerness and anticipation. When Uncle Xing and the others appeared, she hurriedly handed Jia Ke to the nurse beside her. Mammy, and then walked towards the door.

"How can it take you so long to pick someone up at the door? Brother, sister-in-law, did you rest well yesterday? Is there anything missing? If there is anything missing, just let me know, or let Brother Lian and Brother Lian The daughter-in-law can also help you with some things." Mrs. Xing said a little at a loss when she saw her brother and sister-in-law whom she had not seen for many years.

"It's all good, all is good. We will take care of ourselves if we have needs. Brother Lian and his wife are not idle, so you don't have to worry about us all the time." Uncle Xing replied.

"Big sister, is this brother Ke? She looks really strong." Hong came to the side of the nanny, looked at the child in her arms, and asked.

"Yes, there are still two juniors who want to greet you, I have already asked someone to bring them here." Mrs. Xing replied with a smile.

As soon as Mrs. Xing finished speaking, the eldest sister and Jia Qiao's nanny led them in. Wang Xifeng hurriedly asked the two children to salute Uncle Xing and the others. But the cute appearance of the fat baby is also very popular with Hong.

"Nephew and daughter-in-law haven't you got a name yet?" Mrs. Hong asked curiously, seeing that her elder sister was already seven or eight years old, but Mrs. Xing and the others still called her elder sister.

"The elder of my natal family's family is called Grandma Liu, so I gave her a name and called her Miss Qiao, but our own family is used to being called eldest sister, so we didn't change our name very much." Wang Xifeng said hastily.

"Oh! That must be a blessed old man." Hong didn't ask about the identity of the other party, probably thinking that it was a very prestigious elder.

"Aren't you lucky? Grandma Liu is over 70 years old, and her body is stronger than the rest of us. Last time, she came to our house by herself with a big bag of crops, saying that she would give it to us for early adopters. I thought her old man came all the way, and I felt embarrassed, so I stayed with her for the night. Unexpectedly, the elder sister suddenly became noisy at night. My wife and I are careless. How could we know that the child was crying? What is it for? Or is she an old man who knows a lot, but at first glance, she said that she might have bumped into each other. I remembered that during the day, my eldest sister went to the garden over there, but she came back just like that. It's okay, the eldest sister is fine. I saw that my sister was getting better at the time, so on a whim, I asked her to give her a name. After a few casual questions, Grandma Liu gave the elder sister this clever name. Son." Wang Xifeng explained again.

Uncle Xing and the others realized that Grandma Liu was not an elder from a wealthy family, but seeing Wang Xifeng's tone of respect when mentioning this elder, they knew that Wang Xifeng was not like the ones they had seen in the past. Those noble people with high eyesight and low hands inevitably felt a little more intimate in their hearts.

Mrs. Xing and Uncle Xing sat together and talked about their respective situations when the brothers and sisters were separated in these years. Although many things have been learned once through the annual ceremony or a few letters from home, they are still unknown. The feeling of not sitting together and talking about each other is real, Hong also occasionally added a few things that Uncle Xing didn't mention.

When Jia Yingchun and Xiao Yun came to the mansion, it happened that the Rongguo Mansion also sent people to invite Mrs. Xing Jia Lian and others to come over, saying that it was the relatives of the Xue family who had come to Beijing. Madam greeted her and asked them to go over and get acquainted with each other.
