The return of Fengxi of the Red Chamber
Chapter 7 Talking Hearts
"Second Master, Second Mistress, the Eldest Master sent word that we will have dinner together in the main room."
Just as Wang Xifeng got herself together, Hu Po's voice came from outside. It turned out that Jia Amnesty was asking them to go to dinner.
She was about to talk to her, but Jia Lian said from the side: "Master? Where did the master come from? The people in our eldest room will be called master and wife in the future, and those in Rongxi hall will be called second master and second wife. You wait Pass on the word later, if anyone makes a mistake again, I will send the whole family to Zhuangzi, instead of coming to the mansion to wait on you."
Hu Po wondered, the house has always called it that way, why did it suddenly change its name today?
But she was just a maid, and although Jia's mother valued her and pointed her out to Jia Lian, she couldn't object to the master's decision, so she could only agree in a low voice.
Wang Xifeng did know why Jia Lian went crazy, but it had nothing to do with her, it was a fight between the first room and the second room.In the previous life, almost all the eldest families died tragically, but the second room sat firmly on the Diaoyutai. Now that Jia Lian has come back from rebirth, the second room has to be skinned.
And with Jia Lian charging forward, Wang Xifeng felt that she could save a lot of effort and her reputation would be much better.After all, Jia Lian is the eldest son of Chengjue who is serious and honest, so it is right for him to plan for himself, while Wang Xifeng is the housewife, and since ancient times she has always paid attention to the husband's singing and the wife's following, so naturally he should listen to him.
"You go back to the master and wife, the second master and I will clean up and go there right away."
After receiving Wang Xifeng's words, Hu Po bowed across the door and retreated, and the four maids, Ping An Xi Le, entered the room immediately and helped them change into big clothes.Wang Xifeng put on her makeup again, and picked out a set of red gold inlaid with rubies and pomegranate flowers to show the joy of newlyweds. Then, surrounded by maids and women, she and Jia Lian went to Mrs. Xing's main room.
"Greetings, master and madam."
After the couple saluted and said hello, Wang Xifeng consciously stood behind Mrs. Xing, ready to serve her a meal later.
When Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian saw this, Mrs. Xing felt flattered before they could speak.
Wang Xifeng can be regarded as she watched her grow up, what kind of temperament is she, Mrs. Xing thinks she can see a thing or two clearly.Now this respectful demeanor made her feel uncomfortable, she really wanted to be served by Wang Xifeng, and she was worried that she would not sleep well at night because of the accumulated food during the meal.
Therefore, she took Wang Xifeng's hand and said softly: "I know you are filial, but it's just our family's rules. There is no need to establish rules for the first three days when a new wife enters the house. Besides, I don't need maids to serve me. Since you After marrying into our family, I will naturally treat you as my own girl, not only today, but also in the future, there is no need to set this rule in front of me."
As soon as Mrs. Xing said this, Wang Xifeng was stunned. In the previous life, she and this stepmother had been fighting openly and secretly.Mrs. Xing never forgets to step on her, whether she is in front of people or in the queen. How could she get such heart-warming advice, let alone set rules.
Mrs. Xing felt a little dissatisfied when she saw the stunned look of the crowd. Could it be that she is a yaksha, and must be a wicked mother-in-law who tortures her daughter-in-law.
She wanted to prove that she was kind, so she thought for a while and continued: "Even if the morning and evening are settled, there is no need to come too early. The old lady gets up at the last hour of the day every day, and the first hour of the morning is the time to say hello. You will be with me when the time comes. It’s enough to go together, but it’s also cheaper.”
Mrs. Xing has conveyed her kindness, Wang Xifeng naturally would not ignore it, and immediately responded: "Daughter-in-law thanked Madam for her kindness, she should be respectful and diligent. It's just that today is the first time for daughter-in-law to serve your wife, so please do me a favor. The filial piety of our juniors."
Mrs. Xing laughed and said: "Forget it, it seems that I don't want you to be filial, it's just this one time, and I won't allow it next time."
Wang Xifeng naturally responded with a smile, and ordered the servant girl to serve the dishes. She helped Mrs. Xing pick up two chopsticks and filled a bowl of soup for Jia She, but Mrs. Xing pushed her down on the seat and let her eat at the same table.
Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian looked at each other in dismay, feeling deeply confused, completely unaware of why the relationship between the two suddenly became so good.It seemed that they were biological mother and daughter, and his father and son had become outsiders, so there was no room for interjection at all.
After dinner, the maids helped several people wash their mouths and hands, and served tea to drink.
Jia Amnesty took a sip from the teacup and said in a deep voice, "I just heard that you took your wife to the second room to make a fuss this afternoon?"
Jia Lian smiled when she heard the words, and didn't take it seriously: "Who is this who is gossiping in the master's ear? Why would my son mess with the second room? It's just that the second wife called Brother Feng over, and I followed up with a few words. I thought that since the second room was going to hand over the key to the storeroom, and Feng Geer would take over the housekeeper and director in the future, I simply took this opportunity to check the storeroom at home, so that I know what I know."
"The second master and the second wife have already agreed, saying that they will start to investigate after Brother Feng returns home. At that time, the master will also go to testify, and it will save someone from stirring up discord and ruining the relationship between our two families."
Wang Xifeng looked at the nose and the heart with eyes, and just let Jia Lian close his eyes and talk nonsense, repaying the affection between the two houses. Just seeing that Jia Zheng lives in Rongxi Hall, there is no affection between the two houses.
Mrs. Xing also took advantage of the movement of drinking tea, lowered her head and curled her lips. This guy Lian Er is getting more and more capable of talking nonsense.
Jia Amnesty didn't know whether he really believed it, or whether he deliberately mocked the second room, and said very seriously: "In that case, I will be with you when the time comes, the second room and the second room are honest people, and they are really not good at housekeeping. Check to prevent being deceived by the people below."
Then he wentssip a few more words, thinking that the young couple will return to Ning tomorrow, Jia Amnesty didn't keep them longer, but sent them back early to rest.
After arguing with Jia Lian in the afternoon, Wang Xifeng felt much relieved.In summer, when it was dark and late, she didn't want to go back and be silent with Jia Lian, so she went to the small garden instead. Jia Lian had something to do, so she didn't stick to it, but went to the study.
With no one around, Wang Xifeng became more and more interested. In her previous life, she was busy all day, as if she had never had such a pleasant and lazy time.In summer, the grass and trees are flourishing, and the small garden in the East Courtyard has been specially tidied up, full of colorful flowers, it is really beautiful.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Wang Xifeng ordered the servant girl to cut some sticks of hibiscus, ready to take them back to put in vases, and then brought a group of servants meandering back.
Jia Lian was still busy in the study, but she ignored her and asked the maid to bring water to wash, leaving only Ping'er by her side to take care of her body.
Facing Ping'er in this life, Wang Xifeng has complicated emotions in her heart, and has been hesitating how to deal with her.
Ping'er is one year younger than Wang Xifeng, and now she is only 14 years old. She is still an ignorant little girl, not the slick girl Ping in her previous life.
Speaking of Ping'er's fate is not good, she was bought into Wang's family by her family since she was a child, and she started as a lowly servant girl, and finally won the master's favor, and entered the girl's yard to serve, Wang Xifeng is also a temper tantrum, Be careful coaxing and persuading.
Married with the girl, because she knew Wang Xifeng's temperament, Ping'er didn't think about being a housemaid or aunt at the beginning, she just wanted to marry a steward or a servant in a safe and stable way, and it would be enough to be a housekeeper in the future up.
It's a pity that her fate is really not good. Seeing that she has reached the age of marriage, because of her gentle and pretty appearance, she has attracted the eyes of Jia Lian's evil ghost.At that time, Wang Xifeng had already dismissed many maids, and there was only one Ping'er who could comfort her, so although she felt resentful, she made her face as a housemaid and placed her next to Jia Lian.
Ping'er knows how to measure, she never tries to snatch Jia Lian's favor, but instead treats Wang Xifeng wholeheartedly, helping her with everything big and small.Especially when she finally rescued sister Qiao from the mud pit of Jia's family, Wang Xifeng was especially grateful.
But Jia Lian divorced herself, and instead helped Ping'er to be righteous, which really became a knot in Wang Xifeng's heart.
Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng looked up at Ping'er: "Ping'er, what do you think of Second Master?"
Ping'er didn't stop moving his hands, he thought for a moment and said, "Second Master is very good to grandma, but wherever grandma is, Second Master always looks at grandma."
"Really, I didn't pay attention."
Ping'er nodded, and then asked cautiously: "Grandma has encountered some troubles, why has she been unhappy since yesterday?"
Wang Xifeng thought she was covering it up very well, neither Jia Lian nor her wet nurse noticed that she was in a bad mood, but Ping'er saw it, no wonder everyone in the previous life's mansion praised her, she really had a delicate heart.
"It's not that I'm unhappy, it's just that I feel flustered when I suddenly get married." After fooling around, Wang Xifeng pretended to be casual and said, "Ping'er, you are fourteen this year, have you thought about finding someone Object, have you ever thought about just letting the second master stay in this room?"
Hearing this, Ping'er knelt down on the ground with a plop: "Grandma, grandma, thank you! Ping'er never thought of staying in the house, but only wanted to be a housekeeper in the future, and continue to share her worries and work for grandma. Please grandma do it."
She knelt down suddenly and firmly, Wang Xifeng felt her legs hurt when she heard the voice, and said quickly: "What is this for? Get up, I'm just talking nonsense, it will scare you. Growing up together, your second master's character and appearance are not bad, if you have the heart, it's not like I can't fulfill it."
Ping'er was even more frightened. She had served Wang Xifeng for several years, and she always knew that her daughter was independent, but she never allowed others to touch anything that was given to her.Especially for her own son-in-law, she is extremely possessive. When she was in the Wang family, if anyone showed interest in Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng would definitely look ugly. The two big maids who served by her side were replaced because of this. .
Ping'er knew this well, how dare she stroke Wang Xifeng's beard, she didn't dislike longevity!
Just as Wang Xifeng got herself together, Hu Po's voice came from outside. It turned out that Jia Amnesty was asking them to go to dinner.
She was about to talk to her, but Jia Lian said from the side: "Master? Where did the master come from? The people in our eldest room will be called master and wife in the future, and those in Rongxi hall will be called second master and second wife.
