Winning every step of the Red Mansion

After Jia Hu returned to the capital with the princess, the Jia mansion was much more lively than before.Mrs. Zhang gathers her grandchildren together every day, teases this one, hugs that one, and sits and enjoys family happiness.Even Jia Amnesty is intoxicated with family happiness every day, and even going out to socialize and meet up with friends can be pushed as soon as he can.

Shi Fei'er also felt that the room was much more lively than before, but Shi Fei'er didn't care so much about the grandchildren, perhaps because she didn't know what the fate of these people would be in the future. There are many less worries, and the mind is more relaxed.Seeing these little guys change their appearance every day makes me feel happy.

But when the elders are free, the children have to get busy.In Jia She's words, it's time to practice and practice now, otherwise the family who enjoys their success should not think about making progress.Of course, everyone thought Jia She's words were a joke. After all, Jia She's Jia Hu and Jia Lian's sons now have serious jobs, and they can be regarded as celebrities in front of the Holy Majesty. not over their heads.

Because Yingchun will leave the cabinet next year, Mrs. Zhang is now with her grandson all day long, so she asks Wang Xifeng to take Yingchun with her.After all, this child has always been by my side, so it's good if you talk about xinxing, but following Wang Xifeng, you can learn more about family management and money management. After all, Yingchun is a good old man, and he doesn't like to argue with others when things happen, although Fang's family is also good. Tutoring is also good, but mothers are always worried that their children will be wronged, so they also hope that Yingchun can learn from Wang Xifeng's cleverness and ability to speak both ways.Yingchun naturally knew that her wife was doing it for her own good, so she went to find her sister-in-law every day and followed her.

Naturally, Wang Xifeng didn't care, she was just this little sister-in-law, and Jia Lian also doted on her, Wang Xifeng didn't have any younger sisters, and had a gentle personality like Yingchun, so she treated Yingchun as her own sister.When Yingchun left the pavilion in the next year, she was naturally reluctant in her heart, and knowing her wife's intentions, she kept Yingchun by her side every day.Whether it's handling housework or checking accounts, take it with you.

Therefore, Princess Fan has also returned, and there are a few quick-witted people in Jia's mansion, thinking that the princess is the eldest daughter-in-law of the mansion, and the status is high, and now that she is back, maybe the second grandmother of Lian will hand over to her. Quan went out, so he went to curry favor with Princess Fangxian.Naturally, gossip inevitably reached Wang Xifeng's ears.

Wang Xifeng didn't take it seriously either. Now that she has managed the money as a housekeeper for several years, although it can't be considered painstaking, it does consume a lot of hard work every day. If she can really hand it over, she can still be happy and relaxed.Besides, I don't just worry about the affairs of the mansion, I have to take care of the old lady's livelihood.It just so happened that another person came up with gossip, Wang Xifengxin thought it would be best to relieve himself of the burden.

On this day, Wang Xifeng finished sorting out and checking the account books in the mansion, and took Yingchun to meet the princess.This is after Princess Fangxian returned to the mansion, Wang Xifeng did things every day, after all, there must be no difference in etiquette.Princess Fangxian was also happy to see Wang Xifeng and Yingchun, and asked them to sit down and chat together.

The three chatted for a while, Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "It's been a while since the princess returned to the mansion, do you still feel used to it now? Is there any shortage or dissatisfaction?"

Princess Fangxian smiled and said: "It's hard for you to think so well, not to mention the shortage, it's just that you don't like it at all. I naturally know that you have spent all your time. Although I am the princess, in this mansion, you and I are Sister-in-law, you don't have to be so polite."

Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "That's the best. But today I really have something to discuss with my sister-in-law."

Princess Fangxian was stunned and said: "What's the matter? Brother and sister, but it's okay to say, I am also a straightforward character. I have stayed outside the Great Wall for a while, and now my personality is even more so. If there is anything inappropriate in the words, please also ask my brother and sister. , Sister, don’t worry about it.”

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? I thought that you have been in the mansion for some time, and now you are familiar with the people in the mansion. In the past, the old ladies and wives saw that I could still talk about the past, so they asked me to help take care of you. I also manage the affairs of the mansion carefully, and I don't dare to be negligent. Now that my sister-in-law is back, I think that I can finally hand over my job to my sister-in-law. Originally, I was in charge. If there is any mistake, please ask my sister-in-law. It's easy." After speaking, Wang Xifeng waved his hand, and Ping'er, who was behind him, put the box in his hand on the table, and Wang Xifeng patted the lid of the box twice with his hand, "Sister-in-law, this box contains the general ledger book of the mansion. And the keys to each house, if my sister-in-law is free, I will tell you one by one."

Princess Fangxian glanced at the box on the table, then at Wang Xifeng and said with a smile: "Your brother and sister are seeing each other, you take care of it, leave it to me, and stop making trouble. I never What about this thought?"

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Where did sister-in-law go? This is what I really think about. I have been looking forward to sister-in-law's return every day. Now that sister-in-law has finally returned, of course I want to do so."

Princess Fangxian glanced at the people following her and said, "I remember getting up early and stewing some bird's nest and snow clams for my wife and the old lady. Go and see if it's ready. When you're done, I'll give it to the old lady, wife, and second wife." Go and have a taste." When the maidservants heard that the princess sent them out, they all complied and withdrew.Wang Xifeng turned her head knowingly and said to the servant girl who was following her: "I remembered that I would go to Brother Zhen's wife's place to inquire about something later, do you see if everything is ready?"Yingchun also got up, saying that she had invited her sisters to write poems, and left.

There were only two sisters-in-law left in the house, Princess Fangxian said to Wang Xifeng: "If my brother and sister came to look for me today because of this matter, I also need to have a solid relationship with my brother and sister." Princess Fangxian paused and said: " If it was placed in other people's family, maybe they would keep fussing over this matter, but people like us should be open-minded in their hearts. Naturally, I believe that the actions of my brothers and sisters today are from the heart, not those fake ones. So I might as well tell the truth to my siblings."

Wang Xifeng was taken aback when he heard this, and said, "The princess just speaks up if he has something to say."

"I'm afraid we won't be able to stay long when we come back this time." Princess Fangxian said, "Nowadays outside the Great Wall, it is said that it has been peaceful for a few days, and these words are just for the people to listen to and reassure them. Now there are people in the The cult is bewitching people's hearts, and those people are good at fighting and fighting, and the places they pass by are like locusts passing through." Princess Fangxian said with a sigh.

Wang Xifeng was taken aback for a moment: "There is such a thing!"

"Yeah, I'm also feeling that there is such a thing." Princess Fangxian sighed: "This time we came back, first of all, it was because the Holy One was sympathetic, let us take our children home, and let the old lady, the master, and the wife meet, after all It’s been a while since I’ve been away. Second, the army’s salary is in short supply, and your brother and King Qi came back for this matter. After all, the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the food and grass go first, but now the matter of raising food and grass is really worrying.” County Fangxian The Lord pulled Wang Xifeng to speak slowly.

Wang Xifeng frowned gradually after hearing this: "Does the old lady, madam, and master know about this?"

"I left you alone to talk about this matter because I want you to have a clear idea. After all, I don't like the family affairs in the mansion, and the second-hand is indeed not as good as you. Third, if I take it over, I won't be able to take care of it for a few days. , and returned to Beyond the Great Wall, wouldn’t this mess be handed over to you in the end? It’s better not to start from the beginning than to make such a fuss.”

What Princess Fangxian said was very frank, and Wang Xifeng couldn't help but nodded, "Since Princess Fangxian said so frankly, it would be bad for me to evade, but this time I really want to hand over these things."

"I naturally believe this. I have met a lot of people outside the Great Wall. I can tell whether they are sincere or not. It's just that you only know about this matter for the time being. Let the old ladies, wives, and gentlemen be happy for the time being. Give it a few days." Fangxian paused, "Don't worry about these things."

Wang Xifeng nodded, and the sister-in-law and sister-in-law talked for a while before they dispersed.Wang Xifeng went to Princess Fangxian's place, and came back with a lot of worries, but since she had promised the princess to keep this matter secret, she would naturally not say anything about it.

Jia Lian came back in a hurry at night, with a look of joy on his face.Wang Xifeng looked at it and asked: "What kind of happy event has happened to my lord, seeing how happy you are?"

"Do you think this promotion is one of them?" Jia Lian said with a smile.

"That's the way to congratulate you, what kind of official title is it?" Wang Xifeng asked.

"Ask me to be Yuanwailang in the pay office." Jia Lian could hardly hide his complacency.

Wang Xifeng was taken aback when he heard this, and asked casually: "Is this job to arrange military supplies and military salaries?"

Jia Lian nodded: "It's not just that, but it's mainly in charge of the distribution. Although raising military salaries is a matter of the Ministry of Households, these things are all directly allocated by the Holy Majesty. As for the next step, all the departments of the Ministry of Households will jointly think about it. Why is it today? Are you curious about such things?" Jia Lian asked with a smile.

"I don't know much about this, I just heard something new." Wang Xifeng felt a little confused.Suddenly remembered something again, Wang Xifeng asked again: "Earlier, the master helped the Holy Majesty take care of the business alone. Now that the master is going to be promoted, should we continue to take care of these things?"

"You reminded me that I have a good reason to resign this time." Jia Lian smiled and said, "In the past, every time I asked to resign, I was always rejected. I hope this time it will work."

Wang Xifeng bowed her head and remained silent, but she always felt that Jia Lian's promotion was not so simple, but Wang Xifeng couldn't figure out what was not so simple, but she didn't have much time for her to think about it, after all, there were still a lot of people in the mansion. You need to worry about things.After all, it is impossible to divide things up now.
