The return of Fengxi of the Red Chamber

Seeing the expressions of the maids, Wang Xifeng was relieved. It seems that this life has indeed changed, and they really don't want to be concubines.

As for finding a good family and preparing some dowry, Wang Xifeng actually didn't care much.Just as the maids thought, what she has the most on hand is money, and she can still afford to spend 800 taels to send the big maids around her to marry, and she won't take it to heart.

"But I'm heavy now, even Ping'er has to stay for a while longer, and I'm not allowed to leave until I get rid of this in my stomach." Wang Xifeng stroked her belly, then looked at Ping'er and said, "Taking advantage of this time, You'd better give birth to a clever maid, so that you can give An'er some help in the future."

After hearing this, Ping'er just recovered from the surprise just now, but he couldn't bear to look at Wang Xifeng.

She had a hard time growing up, and was betrayed by her mother before she could remember. Before she met Wang Xifeng, it can be said that she didn't have a good day.In her memory, when she was a child, she was either beaten, scolded and punished, or was taken by human teeth, moved from one place to another, picked by people like goods.

Only after coming to Wang Xifeng's side did Ping'er live a life full of food and clothing.Although Wang Xifeng has a bit of a temper, she is not an unreasonable person. Anyone who catches her eyes, not to mention treating her wholeheartedly, will not treat her badly.

Ping'er recalled the past in his heart, choked up and said: "Grandma, I'm not getting married anymore, I'll just stay with grandma in this house, and I won't go anywhere."

Wang Xifeng smiled at her, and pretended to scold her: "Forget it, if you don't want to stay in a female university, if you stay or stay, you will become enemies. It's better to pick someone to marry off early. Besides, after you get married, it's possible that Won't you come back to see me?"

Ping'er shook his head again and again, and said anxiously: "Of course not!"

"Then it's fine, not to mention that this matter has not yet been written off. Maybe your second master will pick a good one for you, and your grandma and I will be left behind."

Facing Wang Xifeng's joke, Ping'er replied very seriously: "Don't worry, grandma, in this life, in my heart, no one can surpass grandma. If grandma hadn't left me behind, I still don't know where I am struggling to live Well, where is the future?"

Wang Xifeng naturally heard it. In her previous life, apart from being Jia Lian's housekeeper, Ping'er also proved her loyalty with her actual actions.Even if Wang Xifeng fell into power, she tried her best to protect sister Qiao, and even collected the body for her former master. Compared with the other servants, she was already much stronger.

Therefore, she smiled at the maidservants, and comforted Ping'er: "Of course I know your loyalty, but because of this loyalty, I can't delay your going. Everyone is doing well. It’s not in vain to come to this world for a while, and I don’t want to let us get along this time, what’s the fun in eating and drinking spicy food alone?”

After hearing Wang Xifeng's words, several people changed their minds, they just served Wang Xifeng more seriously.Facing the second-class maids below, he also began to carefully investigate, preparing to choose a few good ones, who can take his place in the future, so that Wang Xifeng will not lose the maids he can handle.

The days passed like flowing water, and in a blink of an eye, it was the New Year's Eve, and Wang Xifeng's belly was already six months old, and when the spring blossoms in the coming year, the child would be born.

Seeing that Wang Xifeng's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and she would suffer from morning sickness and cramps from time to time, Jia Lian couldn't help worrying about her every day seeing her so uncomfortable.He talked all the time, and finally went to bed from being soft, so he didn't have to sleep in separate bed with Wang Xifeng anymore.

Jia Lian even temporarily slowed down the progress of the affairs of the Ministry of Industry. Instead of staring at him every day, he spent more time at home.

Every day when he came home from get off work, he would accompany Wang Xifeng for dinner, and the maids would bring hot water up, and he would personally wash Wang Xifeng's feet and squeeze her legs.

It's not that maids can't do this job, it's just that their hands are weak, Wang Xifeng always feels that they don't pinch it very well, and it's a bit superficial, and they can't scratch the itchy spot.Jia Lian was different. For the past two years, he would get up early to practice martial arts every day. Not to mention how effective it was, pinching his legs was very suitable.

Therefore, every night, after dismissing the maids and servants, the second master Lian of the Rongguo Mansion, the newly appointed second-class light car captain Jia Jue, turned into a leg-pinching expert, in order to let his daughter-in-law sleep more peacefully.

But as the year approached, although Wang Xifeng was able to hide for a while because of her pregnancy, Jia Lian, as the eldest grandson, couldn't escape, and was extremely busy every day.Especially after Jia Zhu left, the entire Rongguo Mansion generation, with only him as an adult man, had all the affairs piled up on him alone, and it was even more difficult to cope.

Therefore, his plan to pinch his legs had to be interrupted for several days in recent days.

Wang Xifeng got used to his care, and felt very uncomfortable these few days.However, when she got up in the morning, Jia Lian had already gone out. When she fell asleep at night, Jia Lian hadn't returned home yet, so she couldn't complain even if she wanted to.

After dinner that day, Wang Xifeng ran around with hot water as usual, but instead of going to sleep immediately, he took an enlightenment book and read it slowly under the lamp.

According to Jia Lian, this is called prenatal education, and it is beneficial for unborn babies to listen to it. After they are born, they will be smarter than others.In the past few days, Jia Lian read a book beside her. Wang Xifeng listened to it purely as a lullaby. I don't know if the baby listened to it.

But today Jia Lian was not around, so she continued to read, but the pregnant woman was weak, and the warm pavilion was very warm, but after turning a few pages, Wang Xifeng became drowsy and fell asleep reclining on the soft bed.

Since the two got married, no one was left to wait in the house at night, and the maids only stayed outside, and only came in after listening to the people in the house.Therefore, for a while, no one noticed that Wang Xifeng was asleep, and the only sound in the room was the slight sound of candles beating and burning.

The night was getting deeper, and there was a heavy snowfall outside. It was not until halfway through Haishi that Jia Lian returned to the East Courtyard covered in snow and snow.

Today it was Ping'er's turn to watch the night with a maid named Magpie. When they heard noises in the yard, they quickly got up from the kang, helped Jia Lian take off his cloak, and poured hot tea to warm him up.

Jia Lian drank a cup of milk soup, and then regained his breath, and ordered: "Call someone to bring hot water, I want to take a bath to relieve fatigue, you two don't have to stay here, just carry the water after half an hour. gone."

Knowing Jia Lian's temperament, Ping'er and Xi Que went away when they heard the words, but after a while, four rough envoy women came in carrying several buckets of hot water.Ping'er and Magpie followed behind with things in their hands, but it was Jia Lian's bath beans, face cream, handkerchiefs, soft towels and other things that Jia Lian used for bathing. place.

After everyone retreated, Jia Lian took off his clothes and stepped into the hot water to relieve his fatigue.While taking a bath, he thought, when the spring energy breaks ground, he will have to build another bathtub and get a shower head, and it will be much more convenient to take a bath then.

Men take a bath quickly, and Jia Lian is no exception. In winter, even with a brazier and warm walls, the water cools down quickly.Therefore, it was only a cup of tea, and Jia Lian was washed out.

After he changed his clothes and went into the back room, he realized that Wang Xifeng did not go to bed, but fell asleep on the bed instead.

He wondered for a moment, but he didn't wake up the person to ask, but leaned over and picked Wang Xifeng up, and went to the bed.Although the soft bed is also spacious, it is not as comfortable as a bed after all. Wang Xifeng was already unwell during her pregnancy. If she really slept here all night, she would feel uncomfortable tomorrow.

But Wang Xifeng didn't sleep well, and she woke up in a daze when she moved a little bit. Seeing that Jia Lian was back, she half closed her eyes again, and muttered softly, "Why did you come back so early today?"

Jia Lian accidentally woke her up, kept moving her hands, and whispered back: "The business is almost done, and I have recently found a helper who can help with many trivial matters, so I can come back sooner." Some. Is your leg still hurting today, did you ask someone to pinch it?"

Wang Xifeng also slept for a long time during the day. After hearing Jia Lian's reply, she felt sleepy and didn't want to sleep anymore.

After Jia Lian put her on the bed safely, Wang Xifeng leaned on the soft pillow and asked, "It seems that she is capable, do you know me?"

Jia Lian didn't mean to hide it either, and when she saw her question, he replied, "It's Brother Cang who lives in the back street, the son of the third sister-in-law in the west corridor. I don't know if you recognize him? He's only 15 years old, but Brother Cang His father left early, and now he and his third sister-in-law are the only ones living together, and their lives are quite poor."

"I passed by the back street a few days ago, and saw the snowy day, the padded jackets the two of them were wearing were rotten, their fingers were red and swollen from the cold, and the third sister-in-law was still very sick. I couldn't bear it for a while, so I ordered him to be by my side Then, who would have thought that this brother is very clever, very understanding of human relationships and worldly knowledge, and his handwriting is not bad, which saved me a lot of effort."

Wang Xifeng thought about it for a while, she really hadn't seen it in this life, but she had heard of it in the last life.There is a clansman named Jia Cang in the backyard. Both his parents died when he was young, so he took his own burdens and went to the rivers and lakes. It is said that he has become a famous knight.

Wang Xifeng picked and said to Jia Lian: "He is also a child with a hard life. I guess the third sister-in-law could not make it through. Since you think he is capable, you should promote him more. A single tree cannot make a forest. If the Jia family wants to be stable Living far away, you can’t do it alone.”

Speaking of this, Wang Xifeng suddenly thought of Jia Yun. When she was imprisoned in the Prison Temple in her previous life, Jia Yun and Xiaohong also visited several times.Although the two of them were not rich at that time, they still took the favor and secretly sent in food, medicine, clothes and bedding, and helped a lot.

Leaving aside Xiao Hong, she is not weaned yet, so it's too early to think about anything.

But Jia Yun should be about ten years old now, but she can be cultivated first. She is also a flexible head, who can go up and down.

After hearing Wang Xifeng's words, Jia Lian also remembered such a person. When he was dispatched to Ping'an Prefecture, Jia Yun asked someone to send him a bundle.Although I don't have much money, I have two sets of cotton clothes and a few pairs of shoes that fit my feet. It can be seen that I have put my heart into it, and I am much better than others.

Jia Lian also wants to promote this kind of clansman: "Grandma said it very well. When the new year is over, I will ask the master to rectify the clan school and send all the children of the right age in our clan. Maybe I can really pick a few useful ones." .”
