The Heart of the Red Chamber

Many things happened this year, Wang Xifeng got married, Wang Ren got married, Lin Wan was a typical lady in ancient times, with a beautiful appearance, she was considered above average among the people Wang Ren had met, and her temperament was quite mellow. A big lolita can't give birth to any love, but for most men, sex and love have never been one.Lin Wanhui is Wang Ren's wife. Wang Ren is willing to maintain a tender marriage and will not take concubines. In fact, before getting married, Wang Ren successively gave a dowry to several of the maids around him and married them off. He also promoted the second-class maids who had been trained by those big maids before.

Lin Wan was also content with marrying Wang Ren, not to mention that Wang Ren was already a sixth rank at a young age. It can be said that the future is boundless, and Wang Ren was born handsome, gentle and considerate, there is no concubine around her, she just married, Wang Ren handed over the ledger in his yard to her, and the maids and mothers who were in charge of it just helped her.The mother-in-law is also kind and doesn't mean to embarrass her. Instead, she taught her how to housekeeper, and said with a smile that after she figured it out, she would be able to enjoy life in peace.

The population of the Wang family is simple, the only sister-in-law is the cousin, her family background is not high, and she is not very popular with her husband and in-laws. She is no better than an invisible person in the mansion. Moved back to the Xue family's house in Chang'an, and only come here once in a while, especially now that Wang Xifeng is married, there is no girl of the same age in the Wang family, and fewer people from the Xue family come.

Lin Wan put down the account book in her hand and drank tea contentedly. Now, as long as she has another son, she will be consummated.

Wang Ren came in from the outside with a cold body. He was fine when he went out in the morning, but it snowed heavily in the afternoon. After walking for such a distance, snowflakes were already on Wang Ren's clothes and hair. I changed the silver sparrow fur for him before, and put on a homely jade-colored padded robe, and brought him a bowl of ginger soup: "Master, drink the ginger soup first to drive away the cold!"

Wang Ren drank half a bowl of ginger soup, sat down, and another servant girl came to help Wang Ren put on the green velvet boots that had been warmed by the stove. Wang Ren let out a breath of comfort and asked, "Your grandma?" inside?"

Dong Xue, the dowry maid brought by Lin Wan, hurriedly said, "Grandma is reading the account book inside!"

Wang Ren nodded, stood up, and walked inside. Lin Wan had heard Wang Ren's voice and came up to meet him: "Your uncle is back. I asked someone to give you a coir raincoat. Did you ever meet me?"

Wang Ren said with a smile: "Meeting is meeting, but it's just a few steps away, I don't bother to wear another layer, it's really troublesome!"

Lin Wan said angrily: "Master, don't take advantage of your youth and good foundation, so that you don't care about your body. If it is frozen, the master and wife must be worried!"

Wang Ren teased and said: "Master and wife are worried, don't you worry, grandma?"

Lin Wan blushed, and said in a low voice, "I, I'm naturally worried too!"

Wang Ren laughed lightly, Lin Wan is a very cute girl, even though Wang Ren couldn't develop love for her, he still treated her as a younger sister who needed to be cared for, seeing Lin Wan shy now, he couldn't help laughing.

Lin Wan rolled her eyes at Wang Renfei reproachfully: "I won't tell you anymore, you just like to bully me!"

Wang Ren quickly raised his hands in surrender: "It's my fault, for the sake of Xiaosheng's sincerity to admit his mistake, please ask grandma to spare Xiaosheng!"

Seeing that Wang Ren was being funny, Lin Wan burst out laughing.

Wang Ren looked at the account book on the table, flipped through it, and said, "These account books are similar. There are rules in the house and in the shop. Just check it every once in a while!"

"Anyway, I'm bored at home, so it's okay to look at the account book!" Lin Wan pursed her lips and smiled.

Wang Ren smiled and said: "Didn't you say that when you were at home, you liked to play jokes with your friends and sisters? It's the same now! Or invite a girl from a relative's family over, even if it's just to talk!" Women of this age From birth to the end, Wang Ren's life was confined to the inner house. It was really regarded as a door-to-door and a two-door door. Wang Ren had no way to change this life, but he was willing to provide some convenience for his wife.

Lin Wan smiled and said: "I just said that, and the uncle just said such a series! I can't ask people to come to talk to me every day, what kind of words are that! Besides, this account book needs to be read sooner or later. Instead of being in a hurry when the time comes, Why don't you just take a look at it as usual, it's easier!"

Wang Ren didn't say anything more, Lin Wan asked someone to take the account book away, and then Dongmei came over and said, "Master, grandma, someone from the kitchen came to ask, do you want to pass on the meal?"

After Wang Ren got married, Mrs. Sun added a small kitchen in their yard, saving the young couple from having to walk both ways for a meal. For Lin Wan, this has another advantage, except that they eat together during the New Year and holidays. Sometimes, I need to serve my mother-in-law meaningfully, and the rest of the time, I can be the master of my own yard, and I feel that I have married the right person.

Wang Ren and Lin Wan are not extravagant people, therefore, there are only four dishes and one soup on the table, and after eating slowly, Lin Wan suddenly said: "Master, I almost forgot before, there is something I need to tell you. !"

Wang Ren was taken aback, then turned around and asked, "What's the matter?" Could it be that something serious happened?

Lin Wan smiled and said: "It's not a big deal, but, I heard, it seems that cousin Xue's family is going to be engaged to cousin Jia's family?"

Wang Ren's first reaction was, how could it be possible, the two sisters almost fell out in front of each other, why are they bringing up a marriage now!

Seeing Wang Ren's surprised face, Lin Wan explained: "I just heard about it. Whether it's the Jia family or the Xue family, they are talking about good luck, and they are talking about the inscription on the jade that Jia's cousin was born with." The characters on the golden lock and cousin Xue's are a natural match, but I haven't heard of whether they have really settled down!"

Wang Ren frowned and said, "You don't need to worry about this matter. I'll see. Maybe it's my two aunts' wishful thinking! By the way, it's not clear that you just got married. We Wang's family, Xue's family, and Jia's family are all married. The relationship between them is hard to say, if you want to find out, just ask your wife!"

When Lin Wan was at home, she also heard from her father that the Wang family has gradually faded away from the traces of the so-called four big families in Jinling over the years, and is still in the transition period, so after knowing whether the Wang family and the husbands of the two aunts are not It's not surprising when you get so close. As the daughter of a boudoir, she is not so clear about these things. Although after getting married, she also met people from the Wang family and the Jia family. Clear.

Wang Ren drank a cup of Pu'er tea slowly, and then asked, "Where did you get this news?"

Lin Wan said indifferently: "Although Xue's family has moved away, it is inevitable that the servants still have some contact with each other. I also heard this when some servants were chatting!"

Wang Ren sighed, and said: "Turn back and tell the servants to shut up, cousin Xue is not engaged yet, she won't ruin her reputation!"

Lin Wan quickly responded.

Wang Ren was not the only one who knew about this. Lin Wan who just arrived knew about it. It was unreasonable for Mrs. Sun not to know. Mrs. Sun told Wang Ziteng that, Wang Ziteng immediately felt that his two sisters were born to collect debts. What is this called!This marriage, I'm afraid the Xue family is very willing. After all, the Xue family now has only one person left in the Xue family who knows nothing about serious things except eating, drinking and having fun. , This kind of family background, placed in a small place, can still scare people, put it in Chang'an, if a brick is thrown, it can hit several royal relatives, what is an imperial businessman?Since her daughter could not enter the palace, Wang Xue naturally felt unwilling to let Xue Baochai marry someone of the right family. In this way, Jia Baoyu became the best choice.

But as for the Jia family, it wasn't that Wang Ziteng underestimated his younger sister. As long as their old lady was alive, she would not be able to defeat her mother-in-law. Looking at the old lady's body, let alone another ten or eight years, five or six. Years is no problem, how old will Xue Baochai be by then!Wang Ziteng sneered: "The married daughter, the water that was thrown out, not to mention that I am just an elder brother! They are now members of the husband's family, and I can't control what to do!"

Speaking of this, Wang Ziteng suddenly came back to his senses. He was afraid that his concubine sister would be deceived again. Jia Baoyu was a man, so he could afford to wait, but Xue Baochai was already two years older than Jia Baoyu. Well, if that old lady doesn't let go, it's possible that my concubine sister has kept her daughter at home to guard her!He gritted his teeth, damn it, one is stupider than the other!

Wang Ziteng sneered in his heart, that girl usually looks dull, but she is really shrewd when she calculates these things.Mrs. Sun said in my ear: "I see that Shi Taijun is only thinking about making his granddaughter and grandson a pair, and I'm afraid the two aunts and wives will not be satisfied!"

Wang Ziteng sighed: "I see, that girl from the Lin family is probably in a very bad situation. I got news a few days ago that Lin Ruhai is seriously ill, I'm afraid she won't be able to survive!" Wang Ziteng didn't tell the truth to his wife, He is the emperor's confidant, and he also has some news channels of his own. Lin Ruhai was not sick at all, but was assassinated and poisoned. Although the emperor sent his confidant doctor, it was still a step too late, and now it is just dragging That's all!Hey, after Lin Ruhai left like this, the clan members withered again, so how can a daughter keep the Lin family's family business, and, if there is no protection from Lin Ruhai, what will happen to that girl of the Lin family in the future?I'm afraid Lin Ruhai won't be reconciled if he dies!I don't know what the Holy Majesty has planned for the orphan girl of the Lin family, but now that Yizhong County King's party is becoming more and more restless, the Holy Majesty probably couldn't think of so much.

Thinking of this in his heart, Wang Ziteng couldn't help feeling a little pity for Lin Ruhai. He was loyal to the country, but in the end he didn't even have an heir. It's really sad to think about it!
