The Forest of Red Mansions

Mrs. Wang kept her eyes open all night until dawn, and when she got up, she was haggard, her eyes were bloodshot, her eyes were dark and puffy, her brows and eyes were full of resentment, and there was a slap mark on her cheek. "Four large characters.

Seeing this, Jin Chuan couldn't help sighing secretly, and asked cautiously: "Madam, can you still go to the morning inspection today?"

Madam Wang gritted her teeth and said, "Go! Why don't you go? Put on makeup for me!"

Mrs. Wang is already old, and now the marks on her face are too heavy, and it is not easy to cover them up. Jin Chuan applied several layers of powder on her to make her complexion look better, but the slap mark on her face Still looming.

But this is exactly what Mrs. Wang wanted. She has always been narrow-minded and must take revenge. She could remember the conflict with Jia Min's sister-in-law for more than 20 years. Now that Jia Zheng dares to throw her face like this, she insists on tearing his face. No!

……

All the daughters-in-law and girls in Jiamu's yard had already arrived. After saving their ancestors, everyone sat down and chatted and laughed.

There have been a lot of troubles in the mansion recently, the old lady is obviously in a bad mood, the juniors have to flatter the old lady even more to make her happy, Wang Xifeng's mouth seems to be smeared with honey, and the old lady can't help but smile. The depression in the room has disappeared a lot.

Just at this time, Mrs. Wang came.

Taking a look at her appearance, everyone was taken aback.

"What's wrong with you?" Mother Jia was full of surprise.

Mrs. Wang subconsciously covered her face, her eyes turned red in an instant, but she refused to say anything, she just greeted the old lady politely, and said: "My daughter-in-law is fine, old lady don't worry."

However, her aggrieved face is not saying "no problem".

Jia Mu's face darkened, and she said in a deep voice: "You don't have to hide it, just tell me the truth, but the second child has done something to you?"

Mrs. Wang just cried, neither denying nor admitting, but this is her acquiescence.

Jia's mother was furious immediately, slapped the table hard, and cursed: "It's really amazing, you actually started fighting with your daughter-in-law, you bastard!"

It's not that Jia's mother loves Mrs. Wang so much. No matter how good a daughter-in-law is, she can't compare to her son. Besides, this daughter-in-law is not so pleasing to her. This kind of anger is purely because she hates her son for being weak. It's nothing serious. Would it be shameless to spread the truth about doing something to your daughter-in-law in person?

Mother Jia didn't want to take care of this bad thing, but Wang obviously wanted her to make the decision, but she couldn't tolerate her acting stupid.

The second room has been really not worrying recently, and it used to make things difficult for her and make people laugh.

Thinking about it, Jia's mother became even more annoyed, "Mr. Wang, tell me what the hell happened. It's a good life, but an old couple in their decades has to be so noisy."

Listening to the old lady's condemnation inside and out, Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth secretly, but she cried even more bitterly.

Jin Chuan next to him knelt down on the ground with a "plop", and cried: "Old lady, you have to make decisions for my wife, the second wife is suffering! All these years, the second wife has taken care of the housework for the second master's children. The big and small things are all troublesome and laborious. Serving the old lady and the second master is always considerate and careful, and treating the girls and brothers below is also gentle and loving with a motherly heart. Who in the whole family does not praise the second wife? The second master was actually deceived by that villain!"

"Yesterday, the second master went to the house of Mr. Luo, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, for a banquet. When he came back, he brought two girls to make love. Old lady, you have never seen the enchanting demeanor of those two girls. What is it?" A girl from an innocent family, but she looks like she came out of a dirty place."

"What is the status of the second master? How can such a low-level thing be able to talk about it? Even if you want to take concubines, the second wife will personally choose some women from a good family. No matter how bad it is, the girls in our house are thousands of times better than that screw-up thing." Double, at least they are all innocent, if you really want to confiscate that low-level bastard, how will others treat the second master in the future? That's really shameful!"

"As the first wife, the second wife should take the responsibility of admonishing, but those two people are very powerful, they are so delicate and perverted to provoke the second master, which made the second master furious, in front of all of us In front of the servant, in front of those two bastards, he slapped the second wife hard, this is tearing the face of the second wife and putting it under his feet!"

Mother Jia's face darkened, "Where's the second master?"

Jin Chuan immediately opened his mouth and said again: "Second Master hasn't got up yet, the two of them are with Second Master, and Second Wife dare not send someone to see, for fear of offending Second Master again."

Everyone was dumbfounded.

How old are you still playing Shuangfei?I didn't expect that the second master, who is usually the most upright and dignified, is actually like this in private...

Hehe, I really know how to play.

All the little girls blushed with embarrassment, but at this moment, Mother Jia didn't have the heart to take care of them, so she had no choice but to hold back her anger.

The second child... is really smart and confused for a while!

Do you still want that old face?What a shame!

What is even more hateful is this Wang family, who deliberately wants to tear off her man's face and step on it in the mud!

Mother Jia clutched her chest and glared fiercely at Mrs. Wang, wishing she could slap her with a big mouth.

She had known that the Wang family was narrow-minded and would take revenge, and she could only hold grudges, and often when others wronged her, she would return her very temper, but she never expected that she would be so domineering and arrogant towards her man!

Panting heavily, Jiamu suppressed her anger and said, "Go quickly and invite the second master, and those two girls." After finishing speaking, she waved her hands to the crowd weakly, "Go back, let's go stop."

I don't know what will happen later, she really can't afford to lose this old face.

A group of girls and daughters-in-law hurriedly bid farewell and left, most of the maids also left, and in an instant, only Mrs. Wang, Jia Mu and a few close maids were left.

About half an hour later, Jia Zheng and the two girls arrived late, and those who wanted to come to Jia's mother probably also dug them up from the bed.

Jia Zheng's appearance is considered decent, but his complexion is not good.

Although he won two Yangzhou skinny horses last night, he couldn't help but feel excited and show his power, but he is old after all, and he has always been a "weak scholar" body, and he has tossed with two young and beautiful goblins for the most part. After staying overnight, my body is almost empty, and now I am top-heavy and my legs are feeling weak.

When Jia Mu saw his overindulgent appearance, she felt bad immediately, but she couldn't embarrass him in front of her servants and daughter-in-law, so she couldn't help but stare fiercely at the man behind him. Two goblins.

Although Mrs. Wang is jealous and has no good intentions, she is not just talking nonsense. These two women are indeed charming and romantic, their behavior is not frivolous, but their smiles and frowns are very seductive, which can be called natural charm.

Jia's mother has lived such a long time and has seen a lot. Now that she looks at them coldly, she has guessed about the origins of these two people.

Yangzhou is the settlement of salt merchants from the Huaihe River and Huaihe River. Most of the salt merchants are wealthy and their lives are extremely extravagant. In order to cater to the needs of these people, the dirty thing of "raising skinny horses" was born.

Most of these skinny horses were bought back when they were young and carefully trained and taught. They must know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, singing, dancing and everything. Every move, every frown and every smile can seduce people's hearts and souls. What's more, the skinny horse has a variety of ways to serve men. Even the ordinary women in the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion have to bow down, and they can often make men want to stop.

Such a woman is a stunner to a man, but a scourge to a woman. It's no wonder Mrs. Wang can't hold her breath.

Mother Jia's complexion became even more serious, "Zheng'er, where did these two girls come from?"

Jia Zheng felt a little embarrassed, but there was a helpless expression on his face, "This is a gift from Lord Luo. We had a great conversation with Lord Luo at the banquet yesterday. Before leaving, Lord Luo gave the two sisters to me as a gift. Intimacy, although I have the intention to refuse, but Lord Luo is my former striker, he is sincere in giving, if I forcefully refuse, it will be too shameless, and it will cause people to hate for no reason, so..."

After some words, he directly dumped the blame on Mr. Luo, as if he was so upright and so innocent and helpless when he was forced.

Mrs. Wang couldn't help but sneered, hypocrisy!

I'm greedy for beauty and I don't dare to admit it, you bastard!

But Mother Jia thought more.

Right now the most distressed second son has been dismissed and turned into a white body. She is also worried day and night, and she wants to go for a walk, but after counting with her fingers, she doesn't know who to turn to.

The four kings and eight princes have long since lost their glory in the past, and there are not two left who have real power and can speak up. Only Wang Ziteng is still number one, but Wang Ziteng is a general, and he can only use it to the general if he is capable. The second son of her family is a real civil servant, no matter how long Wang Ziteng's hand is, he can't reach the civil servant to stir up wind and rain.

Although Mr. Na Luo said that his family background is much worse than their Rongfu, but he is a servant after all, and he is still the leader of her second child in the past. If he can get along well with him, he will be able to say a few good words to his superiors in the future. Reinstatement is not out of the question.

Since there is something to ask for from others, then naturally you can't offend them. Although the two concubines are just playthings and not worth anything, it wouldn't be a big deal if they found a good excuse to push them away, but now everyone has brought them back. You also ate it, and you insisted on returning it to someone, that would be a slap in the face, isn't that annoying?

Thinking of this, Mother Jia sighed, "Forget it, since it's Master Luo's wish, you can take over the house." After saying that, she asked the two women to leave first.

Jia Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

He was indeed reluctant to part with the two beauties, especially after the unprecedented joy last night, he was even more reluctant to part with them. After tasting the delicacies of mountains and seas, he was asked to go back to eat wild grass, but he couldn't eat.

Mrs. Wang's eyes widened when she heard the words, "Old lady!"

Mother Jia looked at her impatiently, "I know you feel uncomfortable, but now that everyone has entered the mansion and become the second child, can they be returned? No such feud! Besides, as a concubine, you should be virtuous and generous, but you are just two concubines, why do you need to be so fussy? Who doesn’t have many concubines? The second child has only Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhou around these years. Aunt Zhao, you have been stopping me and refusing to lift others, have I ever told you anything?"

"If I, a mother, really want to give two concubines to my son, can you, a daughter-in-law, stop it? I never forced you, but I just sympathized with you, but you don't want to go any further! Back then, Zhu Er As soon as your daughter-in-law entered the door, you rewarded a bunch of concubines back and forth, making the room smoky, and finally hurt Zhu'er... Didn't Zhu'er's daughter-in-law endure it at that time, why now you only have more men You can't stand the two concubines?"

At that time, Jia Zhu was forced by Jia Zheng since he was a child, and his bones were never good. After getting married, Mrs. Wang was afraid that her son and daughter-in-law would get along too well, and that her son would be teased by his daughter-in-law in the future. A bunch of concubines went to confront Li Wan, but in the end, a bunch of women fought for each other until the sky was dark. Jia Zhu, the target of their scrambling, was in bad luck. She lost her kidney water at a young age, so she just went away like that. up.

This Jia Zhu is a bloody scar in Mrs. Wang's heart, which cannot be touched or poked. Whenever Jia Zhu is mentioned, she becomes dumbfounded.

Mother Jia eased her mood, sighed, and said: "All of us women come here like this, and no one is easier than the other. Now you are blessed with both sons and daughters, why bother to care about so much? At this age, people are always staring at the little concubine and being jealous, it should make people laugh out loud."

"Those concubines are nothing more than playthings in the final analysis. What should your dignified wife who is married to be a good matchmaker care about with them? They will lose their own identity and add a joke." After finishing speaking, Jia Mu said to Jia Zheng again. Said: "Although your daughter-in-law is wrong, you should not."

"When a couple lives without a collision, it's just a matter of closing the door and talking about it. As the saying goes, you should give your daughter-in-law enough decency and respect in front of you no matter what. Is there any reason to do something when there is a disagreement? Your daughter-in-law is your first wife after all, if you slap her in the face like this in public, what will she do in the future? How will you control the servants and concubines?"

"Besides, a gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands. You are a dignified man of seven feet, and you should never do anything to your wife. Wouldn't it be ridiculed if it was spread? After reading a stomach full of sage books, you can't be confused again in the future. Go back and have a good life." Make amends to your daughter-in-law."

At this time, Jia Zheng didn't know that his wife had torn off his face and stepped on her feet, nor did he know that the story of Jia Zheng's "playing double-fly" had spread throughout the house. Hearing Jia's mother's reprimand, his heart She was both ashamed and annoyed, ashamed that she was not a gentleman when she did something to a woman, and annoyed that Wang made a big fuss and made him lose face.

In the end, a turmoil was resolved under Jiamu's peace.

Of course, it is only to maintain a superficial harmony for the time being. The husband and wife are already resentful towards each other, and it will only happen sooner or later, especially if Jia Zheng finds out what Mrs. Wang has done, it is estimated that she will have to beat her one time.

……

However, although Lin Jinyao was greatly shocked by what the fourth master said, it was difficult to accept it for a while, but she hated that police illusion even more in her heart.

In the past, she only wanted to protect her younger sister. No matter how miserable the fate of others was, she didn't intend to meddle in other people's business. After all, there were very few people she liked in the Red Mansion.

But now she has changed her mind, since the chess game has been messed up, let it be completely messed up!She refused to give what the police fantasized about!

Having made up her mind, Lin Jinyao went straight to Wang Xifeng's yard.
