The road to becoming a god through the Red Mansions

"Brother Feng, where did you hear that?" Mrs. Wang Ziteng waved her hand and told the little maids to go down. Only one confidant who was serving her was left beside her, so she asked.

Wang Xifeng also asked the other maids to leave, leaving only Ping'er by her side, and replied: "It's me, a few days ago we went to congratulate my aunt, and I left her to look after the house at home. It happened that nothing happened, Ping'er Then I went out to the street and bought some small toys, so I know these things."

Mrs. Wang Ziteng fixed her eyes on Ping'er when she heard the words, and looked at Ping'er for a long time before asking in a deep voice, "Tell me, among the things you just heard, are there any prices that are different from those in the market outside?"

Ping'er thought for a while, and realized that it would be impossible not to talk about it now, and said, "Mrs. Li, those are all things used in the kitchen. I didn't pay much attention when I went out that time. It's just eggs, pork, and salt. One ear, the price is indeed not as high as Fuchu."

"But I thought, the things used in our mansion are all top quality. I also saw salt bought by others on the street. It was black and yellow and rough. It didn't look like the snowflake salt in our mansion. Exquisite and beautiful."

After Ping'er finished speaking, Mrs. Wang Ziteng didn't make a sound for a long time, and then said after a while: "Brother Feng, don't spread this matter, and Ping'er shouldn't tell anyone else. I'll find someone to check it out before making any plans. If it's really the case , You servant girl has done a great job, but I'm afraid you will be hated by the stewards in the mansion, and it will be difficult to handle at that time."

Wang Xifeng and Ping'er both nodded naturally.Mrs. Wang Ziteng was no longer in the mood to teach today, so she sent them back after saying a few words.

Ping'er naturally knew that this move would offend others, but since she was planning to do something in the future, she could only gain the trust of Wang Xifeng and Mrs. Wang Ziteng as soon as possible, so that it would be convenient for her to act in the future.

After returning to Wang Xifeng's courtyard, the master and servant sat down to rest.Wang Xifeng was still thinking about the account book, while Ping'er was thinking, taking this opportunity to persuade Wang Xifeng to learn to read.

In her opinion, Wang Xifeng's nature is not bad, but usually in the inner house, surrounded by people who act recklessly, and there are few people who teach her many principles by hand.Be it the left or right Jia family or the Wang family, because of their meritorious status in the founding of the country, there have always been many people who can't be restrained, and few people who are in awe.

But if Wang Xifeng could read and write, he could collect a lot of books. If he read more, he might change things.People often say that "there is a poem and book spirit in the belly", which is the truth.

Ping'er thought for a while, and organized his words in his stomach, and then he said: "Girl, the maid next to Mrs. today is so amazing, she can even recognize those many words."

Wang Xifeng smiled when she heard the words: "Sister Qingluo is the most capable maidservant by my aunt's side. Naturally, she is not weak. If you want to learn, and learn by yourself, then you will also be the maidservant in charge by my side."

Ping'er made a look of envy, and said with admiration: "I'm afraid I'm not so blessed, but it's just that it's convenient for a girl. When I was not sold into our house, I often listened to other people's words. Everyone thinks that scholars are extremely honorable, so I just thought, if one day I can read and write myself, that would be great."

Wang Xifeng sneered, and said indifferently: "What is it worth? You care so much about it. I think it is necessary to have money and power in your hands. If you want to read and write, many poor old scholars can recognize a lot of people. Stomach books, but some can’t even fill their stomachs.”

"The girl's words are also reasonable, but I also heard that the princesses and princes in the palace have to read and practice calligraphy every day. If they read well, they will be rewarded today. The nobles here are not happy either. It can be seen that reading is beneficial, what do you think, Miss?"

Ping'er knew Wang Xifeng very well, and she was also proficient in understanding her psychology. At this time, he cited some examples, trying to draw Wang Xifeng's mind to study.Sure enough, just now Wang Xifeng, who was not bothered about literacy and reading, showed a thoughtful look on her face when she heard that the nobles and princesses in the palace wanted to learn.

After a while, Wang Xifeng turned around, pointed at Ping'er with a smile, and said, "What a clever maid! You want to study, but you are afraid that people will not allow you, so you have to push me to take the lead, thinking that it will be more convenient for me to take advantage of you." Well, look at it, I don’t know.”

"I can't hide it from the girl's eyes, but I really think that this is of great benefit to the girl. I often listen to the wives and girls in various prefectures, and they always praise that the girl is proficient in everything. "Ping'er said this, paused, and continued, "And I heard that the eldest daughter of Jia's family is also working hard every day, and she never has a day of leisure."

Speaking of Jia Yuanchun, Wang Xifeng stopped talking immediately, no matter how proud she was, she had to admit that Jia Yuanchun was really excellent.Not to mention the dignified appearance and soft and charming appearance, even the temperament is also very good, there is a kind of bearing in every gesture, and the manner of speech is also comfortable to look at.

Having such a cousin can be said to have greatly eclipsed Wang Xifeng's limelight.Fortunately, this cousin was a few years older than Wang Xifeng, and she took good care of Wang Xifeng on weekdays. Wang Xifeng made an early marriage with Jia Lian, but nothing nasty happened.

Ping'er didn't expect to be able to do it once, Zuo only mentioned a word occasionally to make Wang Xifeng have an idea in his heart.Say it a few more times in the future, based on Pinger's understanding of Wang Xifeng in the past few worlds, I will definitely be able to explain her.

The next day, Mrs. Wang Ziteng sent a maid to pass the word, saying that Wang Xifeng's studies have been suspended for the past few days and will resume in a few days.Ping'er and Wang Xifeng looked at each other, and they knew that she must have gone to check the price of the goods purchased in the mansion, and maybe the Wang family was about to explode with a huge thunder.

However, this matter has little to do with the two of them now.After all, although the two of them broke the news, neither Wang Xifeng nor Ping'er would want anyone other than the master of the Wang family to know.After all, if those servants wanted to make trouble, let alone Ping'er, even Wang Xifeng, the big girl of the Wang family, would not get any benefits.

Wang Xifeng pretended to be ignorant of this matter, and began to read the account book by herself, but she really didn't know how to read, so she had to ask another maid to read it out from time to time.Once or twice was okay, but the more times, Wang Xifeng felt annoyed, and he also had some thoughts about the word recognition that Ping'er said before.

"Come on, let's go find uncle!"

Wang Xifeng's temperament has always been in a hurry, and she will do it when she thinks about it, and in her opinion, this matter is not a big deal.It just so happened that today was Xiumu, and Wang Ziteng was resting at home, so she immediately changed into a dress, took the maid and woman with her, and went to the study in the front yard.

Wang Ziteng and his wife are over [-] years old now, and they don't have a son and a half daughter beside them, so they brought their elder brother's children here, so that they can take care of them to relieve the loneliness.Wang Xifeng and Wang Ren brothers and sisters, Wang Ziteng treated that nephew normally, he especially liked Wang Xifeng, now that he heard that his little niece came to look for him, he immediately ordered someone to invite him in.

"Why did Brother Feng come here, but what clothes and jewelry did he fancy? Or the monthly money is gone, just tell uncle, uncle will buy it for you!" Wang Ziteng asked with a smile when he saw Wang Xifeng coming in.

But Wang Xifeng felt a little embarrassed, there were allusions to what Wang Ziteng said.That happened a few years ago, when she was still young, she went out as a guest once, and saw the jewelry worn by another girl, it was really exquisite and beautiful, and she wanted it very much from the bottom of her heart.

But at that time, she had used up all her monthly subscriptions. At that time, she had just come from her hometown in Jinling, and the relationship with Wang Ziteng and his wife was not close, so it was difficult to ask for it.Wang Xifeng was also smart, and after returning home, she began to mess around with her jewelry box, wanting to be those she didn't like, and then change to the one she valued today.

This matter was secretly reported to Wang Ziteng and his wife by the maid around him. The two couldn't laugh or cry, and knew that this was Wang Xifeng's child's wariness.It was Mrs. Wang Ziteng who came forward to buy the set of jewelry in person and bought a lot of new and interesting things to make Wang Xifeng happy.

In addition, Wang Ziteng personally said that in the future, Feng Geer's daily expenses, and the excess part, will be allocated from his own share, and it will be fine to keep accounts.

After this incident, the relationship between Wang Xifeng, Wang Ziteng and Mrs. Wang Ziteng has gradually improved, and now it is no different from his own.

"What did uncle say? Feng'er has grown up, how can he still behave like this? Today I had a business discussion with uncle, but you want to make fun of him."

Wang Ziteng listened to Wang Xifeng's complaint, but became more cheerful, and apologized with a smile: "Okay, I was wrong, I will apologize to Brother Feng. Tell me what is the business, uncle will never object."

Wang Xifeng didn't take it to heart either, and said after hearing the words: "I'm learning to read the account book with my aunt recently, the account book is not difficult, but I don't know the words on it, and it's quite strenuous for the servant girl to read and listen to it all the time. Uncle, I want to find someone to teach me how to read, what do you think?"

Wang Ziteng listened for a moment and pondered for a while, thinking in his mind, in fact, literacy is not a big deal, it's just that the Wang family taught their daughters, and they have never advocated this.But now that Wang Xifeng brought it up, Wang Ziteng did not want to refute his niece's face out of love, since it was just a trivial matter, it would be better to fulfill her wish.

Therefore, the prince said in a loud voice: "I thought it was a big deal, but it was just to recognize characters. I will find a gentleman for Brother Feng tomorrow. I must find a great Confucian, so that I can live up to Brother Feng's intelligence!"

"I'm not going to take the No. [-] Scholar exam. I want some great Confucianism to teach me." Wang Xifeng laughed angrily, "Uncle can just find an ordinary gentleman. He only knows a few words. I'm really impatient to learn those who recite poems and make mistakes."

Wang Ziteng naturally agreed one by one, just waiting for a while to choose a suitable one from his staff, and teaching Wang Xifeng for an hour a day is enough.
