The return of Fengxi of the Red Chamber
Chapter 23 The Decree
During the whole first month, Wang Xifeng never idled a single day, entertaining guests, preparing for gifts, was extremely busy every day.
Because Li Wan was pregnant, Wang Xifeng had a lot of things to do and it was difficult for her to arrange them.Fortunately, Ping'er and An'er had already been released, and they were able to take care of a lot of things, and Mrs. Xing was there to support them, so they managed to support them.
Just after the first month, Jia Lian was uncharacteristically staying at home all day without going out.
When Wang Xifeng came back from dealing with the trivial matters in the mansion, he saw him reclining on the imperial concubine's couch, flipping through a book. : "Hey, why are you so busy at home today?"
When Jia Lian saw her coming in from outside the house, she hurriedly got up and came over, turned away the serving maids, untied the cloak outside for her, and offered her another cup of hot tea.
When Wang Xifeng was sitting comfortably on the kang, he smiled and said: "A few days ago, I went the way of Wang's family in Dongping County and donated the 'black medicine' I researched. Yesterday his family The king of Xiaojun sent me a letter, saying that today or tomorrow, the current reward will come down, and told me to stay at home and wait for the order to thank you."
Wang Xifeng widened his red phoenix eyes, and said with some surprise: "This thing really happened?"
Jia Lian was as angry as she was, lying on the soft pillow a little sleepy: "I know you look down on me, but now I have really changed, and I will definitely earn you a phoenix crown and Xiapei in the future, so that our second grandma Lian I'm also playing with the prestige of Madam Gaoming."
Wang Xifeng was skeptical about this, because in her previous life, Jia Lian was a piece of mud that couldn't support the wall. As much as she hoped, she would be as disappointed.Naturally, she liked Jia Lian in her previous life, not because Jia Lian was capable, but because she was fascinated by sweet words.
Now in this life, the two of them can talk a few words calmly, but it's still too early to talk to each other.But when she was free, Wang Xifeng didn't want to quarrel with Jia Lian again. She couldn't reconcile in this life, and she didn't want to be a widow. This man still had to be used.
Then he said with a warm smile: "Since that's the case, I'll wait for the second master to show his power."
Jia Lian felt that it was quite useful, and the couple lowered their voices, leaning on both sides of the kang table and talking: "After your imperial decree comes down, there will probably be an explosion over there."
Jia Lian snorted coldly: "Don't care about them, what do you want to do, when I was young and ignorant, I let the little servant girl lead me to play around every day. The quota of the Imperial College will be taken away. And give me the name of being addicted to having fun."
Wang Xifeng didn't say a word, Jia Lian really played hard when he was a child.
She was brought up by the Wang family as a kid, and she followed Jia Lian in men's clothes. Not only did she play around with Jia and Wang's family, the two often sneaked out of the house, and they often went shopping in teahouses and restaurants.It can be said that Wang Xifeng has been to almost all the places except brothels when she was young. At that time, her relationship with Jia Lian was really good.
As Jia Lian said, he was somewhat dispirited: "Forget it, I was stupid at that time, no wonder people were plotting. But now it can't be done. I am the next generation head of the Rongguo Mansion. Their second wife, when the old lady goes, they will be in charge. Roll as far as you can.”
On the contrary, Wang Xifeng, with a sudden shock at this time, leaned over and whispered in Jia Lian's ear: "The old man has been gone for more than ten years, and our family's brand of the Duke's Mansion..."
Jia Lian also came to his senses. The highest-ranked person in his family is the first-class general of Jia Amnesty. To hang a plaque to build Rongguo Duke's Mansion is really arrogance.
Jia Lian thought about it for a while, but decided not to be this early bird: "The old lady is still safe now, and besides, there is no one in the capital like this. Since the higher authorities don't pursue it, let's just pretend we don't know about it."
Besides, he was used to messing around in the past, and this "black medicine" can be said to have been made by mistake when developing fireworks, but if the political sensitivity suddenly became high, the people above should be muttering in their hearts.One thing more is worse than one thing less. It is probably not a serious crime to ask Jia She to make an apology after the other family has rectified, or after a few years his own image has improved.
Wang Xifeng thought about it again, and it was indeed the reason: "You just know what's in your mind. I'm only responsible for managing the house well, and I don't know anything about the outside world."
Jia Lian smiled when he heard the words, and changed the subject: "The matter of the Ministry of Industry, according to the intention of the small county king of Dongping, should be completed. It's just Wang Gou'er, how can we bring him in front of us to take care of him?" with?"
According to the relationship between the two families in the past, they hadn't dealt with each other for many years. Although Wang Xifeng sent someone to go there a few years ago, after all, they just recognized a familiar face.So if he went to Wang Gou'er suddenly and said that he was going to be Jia Lian's long-term follower, it might scare their family.
Wang Xifeng laughed when he heard the words, and said with joy: "I've thought about this, but it's not difficult. After February [-], when the dragon raises its head, you can find a reason and say that you are taking me outside the city for an outing. Abducted to Wangjiazhuang. When I sent someone there years ago, Grandma Liu and her daughter were confinement, and now they should be four or five months old. When I get to his house, I will have an explanation."
Jia Lian saw her in high spirits, and couldn't stop itching in her heart. She wanted to go up to her and kiss her, but she was afraid of being slapped, so she had to force her down.
But he said unconsciously: "Good grandma, don't you hang me up, what is the method, let's talk about it first. I know it here in advance, so I can cooperate with you when the time comes, and I won't miss anything. Let Grandma Liu see what's wrong if there's any cheating."
Wang Xifeng felt reasonable after hearing this, so she went on to say: "We have been married for half a year, and there is no news yet. I thought about bringing that girl Qing'er in, so I said it was a match for me. She is a adopted daughter, and grandma is a wise old lady, and there is no disagreement."
"After a few days like this, if you talk about promoting Wang Gou'er again, they will only think it is for Qing'er's sake, and will not attract people's attention."
Jia Lian clapped her hands and smiled, appreciating: "After all, it's the second grandma. This is a good idea. It also satisfies your mind. In the future, you can have more contacts with Grandma Liu's family. If you walk around a lot, the relationship between the two families will naturally become closer. "
"That's the reason. Grandma Liu's family are all good people. We are doing well now, so I just want to make a difference." Wang Xifeng said with a sigh, fascinated, "In their previous life, their family helped us raise the house. Sister Qiao, it's our duty to take care of Qing'er and Ban'er in his family in this life."
The husband and wife were only halfway through the discussion, when a servant girl came outside to report: "Second Master, Second Mistress, a letter from Rongxi Hall said that an angel had descended. The master and wife ordered someone to come over, please hurry over there. "
The two looked at each other, and were immediately overjoyed. No matter how good Dongping Xiaojun said, he didn't believe it, and his heart was still pounding.Now that they had received the letter, the two of them suddenly felt relieved, raised their voices to call the servant girl in, changed into solemn formal attire, and then went to Rongxi Hall hand in hand.
The tables for receiving the decree have already been set up in Rongxi Hall. Jia Shishi, Jia She, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhu, and the two wives of King Bing Xing, Li Wan, and even the little Yingchun, Baoyu, Tanchun and Xichun, are all in attendance. He was carried by the nannies and nurses, and they were all waiting.Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng lived far away, and they were the last ones to arrive.
The eunuch who delivered the decree was also an acquaintance of the Jia family, Xia Shouzhong, the eunuch of Liugongdu.
At the moment, he was sitting in the upper position, and was greeted by Jia She and Jia Zheng to drink tea. Seeing Jia Lian come in, he said with a smile, "Since everyone is here, let's announce the decree."
Jia Amnesty replied with a smile, "Naturally, Brother Xia, you are busy with work, so let's go early."
Jia Zheng's family was also in a very uneasy mood. Xia Shouzhong kept his mouth shut and sat here eating tea for a long time, but he didn't reveal a word of the truth.If you ask insincerely, just say it's a good thing, a great thing, but whose good thing is it?Why did this good thing happen, but didn't mention it at all.
According to Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang's thoughts, it was naturally Yuan Chun, who was in the palace, who probably had the favor of a sage, and might have become a noble lady by now.If this is the case, wouldn't I have something to rely on in my own house, and in the future, Jia She and Jia Lian, father and son, would no longer be able to rely on the trivial old affairs of the past to throw face at me at every turn.
Mrs. Wang thinks even more long-term. If her daughter has become a concubine, then she is the concubine's mother. Who else in Rongguo Mansion is older than herself?Even today's old lady is still a minister, and the empress is a noble person.
When Jia Lian entered the room, he saw Jia Zheng and his wife's longing faces, and after a little thought, he knew the reason.
He snorted coldly in his heart, but didn't reveal anything on his face, he only saluted everyone with a smile, and also greeted Xia Shouzhong extra: "It's been a while since I saw Uncle Xia, and I feel more refreshed after seeing him today. It doesn't look like my uncle, but like a brother."
"Oh, my second master's mouth is getting sweeter." Xia Shouzhong was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth, and he liked Jia Lian even more, "Let's get down to business first, and we can talk slowly later The days are long."
Xia Shouzhong is a celebrity in front of us today, when he said this, everyone in the room was shocked.
But the first room was pleasantly surprised, the second room was frightened, the old lady had a cheerful face, and nothing else could be seen.
Because Li Wan was pregnant, Wang Xifeng had a lot of things to do and it was difficult for her to arrange them.Fortunately, Ping'er and An'er had already been released, and they were able to take care of a lot of things, and Mrs. Xing was there to support them, so they managed to support them.
