Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

Unexpectedly, Jia Zhu met Wang Ren on the bookstore street.

To be honest, Jia Zhu was very surprised. Based on his understanding of Wang Ren, his cousin was not the kind of person who likes to read books and go shopping in bookstores!Jia Zhu thought of the things that worried her recently, and looked at Wang Ren with complicated eyes.

Before he could say hello, Wang Ren came forward nervously, and looked at him with some shame, not daring to meet his eyes, and said dully: "Cousin, I came here specially to find you... Are you free? Let's have a cup of tea together?"

Although his posture was low, the way he stood in front of Jia Zhu was obviously unbearable. Jia Zhu wanted to have a good chat with him, so she agreed.

The two met at a teahouse nearby. Wang Ren obviously had prepared for it long ago, and he had booked a box long ago. The waiter didn't see the waiter asking them what kind of tea they would like to drink.

Wang Ren smiled at Jia Zhu: "I know my cousin likes Longjing, so I've been prepared."

Jia Zhu didn't speak, and Wang Ren didn't say much. The two quietly watched Dr. Tea making tea.Dr. Tea is very skilled. He washes the cup and washes the tea. Every movement is beautiful and elegant. As the water vapor evaporates, the fragrance of the tea overflows, which is refreshing.

It's a pity that the two present here are Wang Ren, a playboy who doesn't know anything about it, and one has something hidden in his heart, and he doesn't have the heart to experience the refreshing tea fragrance at all.

Dr. Tea handed the tea to the two of them, packed up his things, and walked out of the box lightly. Wang Ren picked up the small purple sand cup, imitating the style of a literati, and sipped it carefully, for fear of calling Jia Zhu to drink it. He underestimated himself, and insisted on sticking to his lips with every sip, acting like a gentleman—he felt that he was still very considerate of the temper of Jiazhusi, but when he looked up, he saw that the tea was smothered dry in one gulp. Wang Ren immediately scolded his mother secretly, stopped pretending, put down his glass, and planned to get straight to the point.

Before he came, his sister had confessed that if Jia Zhu was out of his mind, it meant that his heart had already been shaken, and he just had to pretend to be pitiful. Thinking of Jia Zhu's pedantic reading, the most gentlemanly person, the most unbearable , that’s the trick.

Wang Ren, who firmly remembered his sister's advice, let out a long sigh, and after attracting Jia Zhu's attention, Wang Ren showed a wry smile and said, "Speaking of which, I'm really sorry for my cousin, but I really can't help it... I don't have the face to visit , I just want to chat with my cousin in private, to tell you the truth, I have been here for several days, and I hope that you can show up..."

The words were thoughtless, but Jia Zhu's heart felt a little heavier, after a moment of silence, he forced a smile and said: "If my cousin has something to do, just come to me directly, if there is anything wrong with coming to the door. You and my relatives, why are you so polite?"

Wang Ren smiled wryly: "In the past, of course, I would not be polite, but now I do such a difficult thing, how can I have the face to see you?" Jia Zhu, Wang Ren said apologetically, "Cousin is brilliant, young and polite, and everyone from the elders praises him. For so many years, he has never disliked my cousin as a playboy and incompetent. He treats me very well. In this regard, I am a cousin. Keep it all in my heart... Now I am playing a rogue and relying on you, it is me, I am my cousin, I am sorry for you!"

As he said that, he stood up and walked to the side, and he was about to kneel down to apologize to Jia Zhu.

Jia Zhu jumped up in shock, hurriedly grabbed him, and asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

But Wang Ren refused to get up, and said in embarrassment: "Cousin, don't stop me. The more you do this, the more I feel dissatisfied!" As if he had made up his mind, he raised his head and said, "Cousin, you don't know, but it is I swayed in front of my uncle, begging my uncle to betroth my sister to you, and said that my sister's accident was because my aunt insisted on taking her over as a guest, and the groom I sent was not good enough, so my sister was harmed. This cousin is responsible for his sister for the rest of his life..."

Jia Zhu was startled when he heard this, and his men let go, and Wang Renzhen fell to his knees with a plop.Jia Zhu hurriedly pulled him up again: "Don't be like this, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it."

Wang Ren held his hand, didn't let him move, stared at his eyes, choked up and said: "I know I'm sorry for my cousin, I've wronged you by letting my sister marry you, not to mention that you were engaged to marry me in the first place." , my younger sister's mutilated leg is not good enough for you... But I, but I really have no choice..." As he spoke, he was not afraid that Jia Zhu would see the joke and burst into tears.

"My sister and I lost our father since we were young, and later our mother also passed away. We depended on our uncles and aunts, and lived in gold and silver. However, under the fence, it depends on the face of the person. It is the close relatives of uncles and aunts, and it is not as good as our own. Parents... I know, you all think that I am not good enough, yes, I also admit that I am not good at writing, I am not smart, I am not willing to work hard, I am nothing compared to my sister... But that is not It means I don’t love this little sister anymore!” Wang Ren cried until he lost all image, with tears and snot all over his nose, and he was very emotional, “I still remember when my father passed away, my sister was still naive, little I am tall and staggering when I walk, and my father told me to take good care of my sister in the future... When my mother passed away, I also said that I will be my sister's biggest support... She had a good life in the past, and I am not a big brother. If you want to live up to it, you might as well avoid her contact so as not to drag her down, but in my heart, in my heart, I have never forgotten this sister."

Pulling on Jia Zhu's sleeve, Wang Ren lamented, "Cousin, you don't know that after my sister lost her leg, she became completely dejected. It turns out that a girl who likes to talk and laugh so much, who wouldn't like it? Who doesn't boast? But since she knew her legs would never get better, my sister stayed in her room all day long, didn't think about eating, and didn't say a word for ten and a half months. The whole person was lifeless and energetic. My son is gone... If it wasn't for my aunt being watched, cousin, do you know? My sister would have committed suicide long ago!"

Jia Zhu was shocked: "Cousin is really like this?"

Wang Ren nodded sadly: "Can I still lie to you about this kind of thing? Go ask your uncle and aunt, they all know that my sister, she once committed suicide..."

Jia Zhu's body trembled, and guilt and shame quickly flashed across his eyes. These days, he has been conflicted in his heart, and he doesn't know how to look at his biological mother.Originally, he could barely comfort himself. After all, Cousin Feng was still alive, but her leg was disabled, and his mother was not considered a heinous crime.But now that Wang Ren was crying like this, it broke his last illusion.For a young girl in bloom, disability is probably a more cruel result than death, right?Although his mother, Wang Shi, did not kill Wang Xifeng, she ruined her life...

Wang Ren was still crying: "I really have no choice but to think of such absurd idea of ​​letting you marry my sister. I know that you are a good person, and you also treat Feng girl as your own sister. If my sister marries you, I will certainly not marry you." I will endure hardships, my uncle and aunt love my sister, and there will be no conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future... I know that I am not human, and it is unethical to drag my cousin into the water for the sake of my sister. I just hope that you don't get angry with my sister, she is still at home and doesn't know about this marriage at all...Cousin, you just treat her as a poor Feng girl and marry her, I'm sorry for you, In this life, you only need one word, let me go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire, and I won't frown at all. In the next life, I will tie a grass ring and repay you!" After finishing speaking, he kowtowed heavily to Jia Zhu.

Jia Zhu was so ashamed that she couldn't find a crack to slip in.

His mother's crimes, the poor master didn't know the slightest bit, and still begged him like this, put down his face and self-esteem, and apologize to him.Jia Zhu's face was burning hot, and she pulled her up, shy and anxious: "Get up, marriage is a big matter, the order of parents and the words of the matchmaker. Since my parents and uncle have already discussed the marriage, I will naturally Follow and treat your cousin well, why do you do this? Am I such an unreasonable person?"

Wang Rensheng was afraid that he would get angry, so he hurriedly said: "Why? Cousin has outstanding virtues, who among us doesn't know? Why do I miss you so much?" On the other hand, he was still worried, and asked nervously, "Cousin Bro, have you agreed to the marriage?"

Jia Zhu looked at him amusedly: "You come to me like this, don't you know that my parents have agreed to the marriage?"

But Wang Ren didn't shy away from it, and said frankly: "Of course I know this. Since I stalked my uncle and said this idea, I have been paying attention to every move of the two prefectures." "But in the final analysis, the person my sister wants to marry is you, if you must disagree..."

Jia Zhu looked at him incredulously: "If I don't agree, will you just let go of the marriage?"

Wang Rending took a look at him, shook his head sincerely, and apologized: "...No, even if you don't agree, I won't let this marriage go down. You are my sister's best marriage candidate..."

"Since that's the case, you're still looking for me?" Jia Zhu observed his expression, she didn't know why she was so aggressive all of a sudden.

Wang Ren lowered his head, obviously embarrassed, but he still said: "My cousin said that I am thick-skinned, or that I have no conscience to sacrifice you for my sister. Go... But I want you to know that my sister is innocent, so you should treat my sister a little better for the sake of your cousins..."

With such a low profile, he even said words that cursed himself, but Jia Zhu panicked in his heart, thinking that he had even been dissatisfied with this marriage, and only felt that he was in vain.

It is also right for the mother's debt to be repaid, his mother committed a crime and harmed his cousin, and his elder brother played tricks, so what's the point?Can it compare to his mother's attempted murder and the crime of ruining a person's life?

"Cousin, you are a good brother." After a long time, Jia Zhu laughed, looking at Wang Ren with determination in her eyes, and said, "Don't worry, I will treat my cousin well in the future."

Wang Ren raised his head in surprise: "Really, really?"

Jia Zhu nodded: "My cousin will be my wife in the future, of course I will treat her well. Don't worry, I will never feel sorry for her."

Wang Ren was so happy that he wanted to kneel down to thank him again, but Jia Zhu hugged him: "The marriage is settled, you are my brother-in-law, how can I call you like this?"

Wang Ren smirked for a while, thanked him for a while, and scratched his head, not to mention how stupid he looked.Jia Zhu looked at it with a smile, and sighed: "I didn't know before, but you are such a good brother."

Wang Ren's face was a little red: "What is this, it's not what I should do!"

The two chatted for a while, Jia Zhu had too many things on her mind, so she lingered and left soon. Wang Ren sent him downstairs, watched him go away, and then returned to the box.When he opened the door, there was already a figure inside. Hearing the noise, he turned around, and who was not Wang Xifeng, who was so charming and dimpled like a flower?

Wang Ren looked at her angrily: "Are you satisfied now? For you, I even lost face and knelt down."

Wang Xifeng poured tea for him with a smile: "Brother worked hard, I will remember all the kindness you have done to me. In the future, I will definitely repay my brother well."

After all, they were brothers and sisters, and Wang Ren didn't overdo it. He took the tea and said "Just remember", and ended the topic, but he said kindly: "Cousin is a good person, you marry him, will be happy."

Wang Xifeng glanced at him in surprise, Wang Ren turned his eyes away feeling uncomfortable, a warm current surged through Wang Xifeng's heart, and said with a smile: "Well, I know, I will live a happy life."

Even if it's to keep her good aunt in trouble for the rest of her life, she still has to live well, doesn't she? !
