Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

"It's really a shabby household that doesn't appear on the stage. It makes troubles all day long, and uses different methods to make trouble!" Seeing that there was no one around, Wang Xifeng spat hard, and then idly leaned on the brocade pillow by the pit. Look at Ping'er sarcastically.

"I heard from Chunlan in the old man's courtyard that the old man not only didn't listen to the slanderous words of the old lady, but also scolded her." Ping'er said: "It can be seen that justice is still in the hearts of the people, and grandma has worked hard for the Jia family. Everyone is still watching."

"Fairness lies in people's hearts, and I hope they will think of me, haha!" Wang Xifeng frowned coldly, curled her lips, and said in her heart, the old man is just afraid of offending the Wang family and dare not attack.

"However, I didn't expect Brother Cong to be quiet on weekdays and not too close to us. Unexpectedly, he is a sensible person who can remember the benefits of others. The eldest wife is so face-to-face He also refuses to talk nonsense if he provokes it, otherwise, if it spreads, grandma's reputation will not be good." Ping'er praised Jia Cong.As the housekeeper's grandmother, Wang Xifeng was perfunctory to her seriously ill brother-in-law, and she didn't even go to see her. No matter in terms of responsibility or reason, she was somewhat unreasonable.Especially compared to the last time when Baoyu had a minor illness, and she paid two or three visits, she seemed even more glaring, and it was inevitable that people would comment.

If Brother Cong started to make a fuss by talking about it, he would really lose face, although he should not dare to do so.Therefore, Wang Xifeng was very satisfied with Jia Cong's safety and knowledge, and thought that he could take care of him a little extra, and ordered Ping'er to prepare some things and send them to him in two days.

Then he thought of Mrs. Xing's schemes against him, and she couldn't help feeling angry.Wang Xifeng couldn't make a move against her own mother-in-law, but Cuiping, the maid who listened to Mrs. Xing's orders and came forward to provoke Jia Cong, couldn't let her go!She sneered, that was courting death!Coincidentally, she can use her as a cover to kill chickens and scare monkeys, so as to wake up the brains of the crooked servants nearby!

Two days later, Wang Xifeng personally took Ping'er, brought a large bag of supplements and interesting things to visit Jia Cong (that is, Li Chenxi, which is confusing, and will be called Jia Cong hereinafter), and talked to him for a long time , Hush and ask for warmth, considerate.Jia Cong saw that Wang Xifeng really deserved to be an outstanding figure among the Twelve Gold Hairpins, not only "the face is full of spring power but not revealing, and the red lips are heard before smiling", she looks luxurious and beautiful, and she is also very flexible when speaking , yelling at his mouthful of 'Cong Di', 'Cong Di', complaining that his sister-in-law is too busy to ignore Cong Brother, Cong Brother must not take it to heart!

"Brother Cong, what do you want to eat and what to use, just send someone to tell me!" '

'My sister-in-law brought you a good tonic, and asked Madam Su to cook it for you every day, so that you can replenish it! '

The tone is warm and friendly, no one can tell what is wrong with her, she is really a good sister-in-law who cares for her uncle!

Jia Cong also talked to Wang Xifeng with a bright smile, isn't it just acting, who is not an actor?After being so respectful for a long time, Wang Xifeng finally revealed her true purpose.

"Brother Cong, it's a terrible crime for you to be sick this time. How do the servants around you serve the master?" Wang Xifeng glanced fiercely at the maidservants around him. Everyone was shocked by her power and quickly lowered their heads. , I dare not breathe out.

Seeing this, Jia Cong understood a little bit, but he wasn't going to do anything more.He and Cuiping were just acquainted for the first time, it doesn't matter, the ancients said that "the white head is as new, and the cover is as old", if Cuiping is as loyal to him as Su Momo, he will do his best to protect her.It's just that when Cuiping came forward to provoke her, she didn't think about her master at all, and Yuanshen has always been very good to her.Thinking of this, Jia Cong's heart hardened.Insufficient ability can be cultivated slowly, and if unfaithful people stay by his side, he cannot bear the possible consequences

"Second sister-in-law, it's all right. It's because I was just playing and sweated all over. I was blown by the wind and got a little cold. I'm fine now." Jia Cong said calmly.

"It's their duty to take care of you. They are sweating, don't they know how to bathe and change your clothes in time, and drink a bowl of ginger soup?" Wang Xifeng retorted: "If Madam Su had been there at that time, she would have taken good care of you If you do it properly, then you won’t suffer from this disease! The maids, wives, and sisters-in-law around you are also allocated according to the rules, and there are not many of them. Why can’t all these people serve a master well?"

"Who is the big girl beside you?" Wang Xifeng snorted coldly,

"It's the servant girl, Cuiping." Cuiping stood up tremblingly with her head down.

Wang Xifeng stared at her for a long time without saying a word, and then slowly said: "Cuiping, not long after you got to Brother Cong's side, you were promoted to a second-class maid, and you get a monthly salary. Relax, but you didn't take good care of Brother Cong, which shows how unsatisfactory you are! In this case, you just follow me, come in my yard, and learn how to do things, so that you can serve the master well, and the most important thing is to be loyal to the master !"

Cuiping raised her head in panic, facing the sneering smile on Wang Xifeng's face, she looked at Jia Cong hastily and hopefully, seeing that his expression remained unchanged and he didn't make a sound to stop her, her heart skipped a beat, knowing what was going on Because of the reason, I trembled all over, and finally agreed in a slumped way: "Yes, this servant obeys."

"Brother Cong, my sister-in-law has transferred Cuiping, so she will naturally choose a good servant girl who is down-to-earth and responsible to make up for you." Wang Xifeng turned to Jia Cong again and smiled.

Jia Cong nodded in agreement, not surprised by this.Cuiping should have thought of this consequence when she took orders from Mrs. Xing and plotted against herself and Wang Xifeng.He also didn't want to keep around someone who had a different heart for him. He was not Jia Baoyu, and he didn't feel so sympathetic to him.His rules are actually very simple and simple, nothing more than you treat me well and I treat you well!Throw it with a peach, and return it with a plum!

Wang Xifeng transferred Cuiping away because she was not good at serving Jia Cong, and it was like a slap in the face to Mrs. Xing who wanted to discredit her.But on the bright side, Mrs. Xing couldn't say it out loud, she could only hold her resentment in her heart, and it was unbearable.If you want to call Jia Cong over for a while, he asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Cuiping is going to learn how to do things from the second sister-in-law, so what's wrong with that?"

Mrs. Xing was even more angry, forget it, why should I waste my tongue with this stupid guy?

"Okay, I'm done asking you to be safe, you can go back! Be good, don't be mischievous like a live monkey, and make others tired!" Mrs. Xing said with a cold face.

Jia Cong respectfully agreed to step down, with the same etiquette, but he was extremely bored in his heart, and the desire to get rid of this group of people was even more urgent.

Jia Cong studied with Jia Yingchun for a few months, and he was able to recognize the traditional characters very well.In the past few months, the person he is most familiar with in Jia's family is Yingchun, and Yingchun is the only one he has a crush on.Not to mention Jia She and his wife, although Wang Xifeng showed kindness towards him, there was always a sense of superiority in her words and deeds.

He knew in his heart that with Wang Xifeng's keen intelligence, if he wanted to conceal his thoughts, it would be easy, but she was too lazy to do it.That being the case, no matter how glamorous and charming Wang Xifeng is, Jia Cong can't feel close to her in his heart. He is round on the outside and square on the inside, but he has his own pride and persistence in his bones. He can do things on his knees, but he must Stand up and be a man!

As for other people, such as Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, etc., Jia Cong has not seen them yet.Jia's mother didn't want to see the grandchildren of the concubines, and Jia Huan and Jia Cong didn't have a chance to pay their respects on weekdays. He had no contact with these people in the clouds of Jia's family, so naturally he couldn't say whether he liked or disliked them.Knowing that the knife to steal the house was on his head, he didn't bother to pay attention to irrelevant people.

Although Yingchun has a mediocre nature, she is gentle and patient towards this young brother. Jia Cong is an adult in his original body, and acts naturally and thoughtfully.He knows the principle of reciprocity, and from time to time, he asks Madam Su to go outside to buy some things to give to Yingchun, such as the famous food in an old shop in the capital, small baskets made of willow branches, incense boxes picked from whole bamboo roots, Mud stacks of wind stoves and other interesting things are simple but not vulgar, straight but not clumsy. When Yingchun saw her, she couldn't put it down. I have received extra rewards, so I am a little apprehensive, not knowing whether I should accept it or not.

Seeing Yingchun's appearance, Jia Cong sighed, secretly saddened by it.These things look exquisite, but they are really worthless.But now that I don't have enough money, I can only afford such things, but Yingchun is very happy, which shows how much the girl is ignored at home.If I have the ability in the future, I will try my best to help you and change the fate in your book!Jia Cong thought silently.

In the past few months, Jia Cong suppressed his antipathy towards Jia Amnesty, and ran to greet him every three to five days, making all kinds of arrangements.No matter how cold Jia Amnesty was, he did not reach out his hand to slap the smiling face, but he still gave a few smiling faces to this respectful and filial bastard, and his attitude was a little closer.

Jia Cong took the opportunity to ask to study.He has carefully calculated that if Jia's mansion is toppled in the future, young bastards like Jia Huan and Jia Cong have never committed any evil deeds, the court should not care as much about them as they did Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu, maybe they will Be easy on them.At that time, if there is a fame and fame, at least it can be used to offset it, and deprivation of the fame and reputation as a punishment, that would be a great fortune among misfortunes!If the Jia family hadn't fallen into such a miserable situation, it would be beneficial and harmless to gain fame.So Jia Cong decided that no matter what, he had to strive for fame first, even if he was just a scholar, that would be excellent, at least he would not be in vain!

Jia Amnesty didn't take it seriously at first, and kept saying, children from people like us can always get into an official position and have no worries about their future. If you want to go to school at such a young age, why don't you just have nothing to do and think about it differently? to be naughty?Anson stay at home!

Jia Cong felt hehe in his heart, and secretly scolded Jia Amnesty for being so stupid and stupid!Is it so easy to be an official? Then why haven't I seen you become an official, fiddle with antiques at home with an empty title, and wait to die?Even Jia Lian and Jia Rong, the two future successors of the Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion, just spent money on entrusting others to donate to officials. That is not a real job, only a grade, not a real official.

Of course he couldn't say that, otherwise Jia Amnesty would beat him to death, so he had to apologize and said with a smile that he wanted to study hard and win the honor of the master in the future.The whole family said that the second brother Bao was talented and learned, like the second uncle Zheng, who was a seed for reading, but he was a little bit dissatisfied.In fact, the master is a truly elegant person, proficient in the art of gold and stone, but he is a noble person who disdains to compete with scholars for his future.But the son knew the superiority and inferiority, so he didn't dare to compete with Lian's second brother, so he wanted to work hard on his own and get a good name in the exam, just to show those snobs

These words touched Jia She's mind. He had long been resentful that Jia's mother and Jia's family were pursuing Jia Zheng. He felt that his younger brother regarded himself as a scholar all day long, and he hadn't seen him learn anything. Proficient in the specialty of antiques!

With a thought in his mind, Brother Cong seemed to have opened up a bit since he suffered a serious illness.Since he is devoted to studying, that's not a bad thing. If he is lucky enough to get a good name in the exam, he can also slap the second room in the face and feel proud. His second brother is not even a scholar!

Thinking of this, Jia She smiled and readily agreed, and ordered someone to send a message to Wang Xifeng, asking her to arrange for Jia Cong to go to Jia's family school.

Wang Xifeng was a little surprised. Baoyu, Jia Huan, and Jia Lan at home hadn't officially started school yet. Why Jia Cong competed for the first place and went past Baoyu, fearing that the old lady and the wife would be unhappy if they found out.But after thinking about it, Jia She's orders are not easy to disobey after all. How would a little frozen cat like Jia Cong want to study? I'm afraid it's just a whim to make Jia She happy.When his excitement is over, I'm afraid he didn't spend three days fishing and two days drying the net?Now it's nothing more than spending more on training and ethnology, nothing hinders.Thinking about the past few days, Jia Cong was very knowledgeable, well, then give him some benefits in return.

So, after careful planning, Jia Cong finally went to ethnology to study and started his studies.
