Xing Xiuyan's Life in the Red Mansion
Chapter 4
Just when the Xing family was slowly getting on the right track, an accident happened suddenly.This incident also made Xing Xiuyan understand that many things cannot be escaped just by trying to escape.
Xing Xiuyan was doing needlework in front of the bed that day, when suddenly Xing Liu's slightly exaggerated voice came from the door, the flattering voice could be heard from afar, "Second Master Lian, please come in, we poor family, don't dislike us .Come in and sit down!"
Second Master Lian?Xing Xiuyan's hand didn't matter, the needle poked her finger, she hissed in pain, and put the finger in her mouth.Second Master Lian, isn't the Second Master Lian she thought of, right?What is he doing here?Could it be the butterfly effect caused by oneself?
Xing Xiuyan was thinking wildly, and the door curtain was lifted, "Yan'er, come out quickly, the Second Master Lian of the Rongguo Duke's Mansion has come, and said that it was your aunt's orders, and wants to take you to live in Beijing for a while this time! Quick, change your clothes, go out and meet."
Xing Xiuyan was pushed by Mrs. Xing Liu to change clothes, and she asked puzzledly: "Mother, Second Master Lian is not staying in Rongguo Mansion well, what are you doing in Gusu?"
"Hey, you don't know. The aunt of the Rongguo Mansion was originally from Gusu. He passed away two years ago and was buried back in his hometown in Gusu. In the past two years, every year on the aunt's memorial day, the second master Lian would come to Gusu to give to the aunt The master went to the grave. He originally planned to visit us last year, but we were living in Panxiang Temple at that time, and he was in a hurry to go back, so he couldn’t find us. This year, Tete made some inquiries and finally found us.”
Xing Liushi opened the closet, took out the clothes one by one, and gestured at Xing Xiuyan.
Xing Xiuyan sneered a few times, are you sure he didn't find us last year, not because he knew that we rented in Panxiang Temple and felt that it was too shameful to know such relatives, but this year he found that the Xing family's family situation has improved, so he came to him?
Jia Lian was sitting in the living room, looking at the surrounding environment without any trace, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. Even if the Xing family is doing well now, in Jia Lian's eyes, they are just ordinary people.He didn't understand what happened to his daughter-in-law?Every time she went to Gusu by herself, she would tell her repeatedly to take the girl from the Xing family back. Even if it was based on her name, the girl from the Xing family should call her cousin.However, what is the identity of the Jia family, and what is the identity of the Xing family, can she call this cousin?
It's just that there is no way, now Wang Xifeng is pregnant again.She was already favored at home, and her words were more effective than herself.Both the old lady and the ladies love her, she mentioned it once last year, and she blamed her for not being able to bring back Xing Xiuyan when she went back.Even going to Gusu every year to pay homage to Uncle Lin was suggested by her.Strange to say, it is said that the second wife had some misunderstandings with Aunt Lin, and he thought that the second wife would target sister Lin when she came.I don't know what Wang Xifeng said to the second wife, but the second wife fell in love with Sister Lin the first time she saw her, and in front of the old lady and the two masters, she recognized Sister Lin as a foster daughter.
After the old lady was stunned for a moment, seeing that the second wife was really happy with Sister Lin, she also agreed.Now the second wife treats sister Lin as well as Baoyu.When Uncle Lin passed away two years ago, the old lady asked the old man to bring her and sister Lin to Gusu. After burying Uncle Lin, she sold the Lin family's property and discounted it for a total of 200 million taels. The silver ticket was given to Sister Lin for safekeeping.
After returning to Beijing, Sister Lin took out 100 million taels in front of the old lady and the old lady, saying that it was for the mother-in-law to visit relatives and build a garden at home.The old lady also said it was very good.Since then, sister Lin's status in Jia's family has become even higher, even the second wife's niece!Everyone knows that Sister Lin is a wealthy person. If it wasn't for Sister Lin who hasn't reached the stage yet, the threshold for those who come to propose marriage would have been leveled off.That's it, there are not a few people who secretly ask about sister Lin's marriage on weekdays.
This time he came to Gusu, Wang Xifeng chased him and read for several nights, ordered him to bring Xing Xiuyan back, and even made it clear to him.Jia Lian also understood that this was to balance the relationship between the eldest and the second wife.The second wife's aunt and niece all live in the mansion, and the eldest wife has long been disgusted with it. Although Wang Xifeng mediates, but after a long time, the eldest wife will be confused and do something. This matter should be resolved as soon as possible. good.
Jia Lian sighed, no, he still came to Xing's house after all.
"You said my aunt misses me?" Xing Xiuyan was a little surprised, would Mrs. Xing miss her?Just kidding!For so many years, Mrs. Xing has completely forgotten that there is such a family!Any reason you make up is more plausible than this!
"Yes. For so many years, my wife has had nothing to do. Although my eldest sister is with my wife and my second sister often visits my wife, my wife still feels lonely after all. She has been married to the capital for so many years, and she has always missed her natal relatives. Ladies and gentlemen, the capital city is far away from Gusu, and communication is inconvenient. Last year, I finally found out the whereabouts of my uncle's family, and my wife was very worried about it immediately. No, I must invite my cousin to live in Beijing for a while. Uncle and aunt Let’s go to Beijing together, we’re all relatives, so we should go back and forth.” Jia Lian was worthy of being the most handsome young man in the Red Chamber, with a bright tongue and a sincere smile, which immediately made Xing Zhong and Xing Liu’s eyes turn red.
Xing Zhong nodded and said, "Okay, let's go! Give us a few days, and we'll leave after packing up!"
"Father!" Xing Xiuyan hadn't recovered from the shock brought by Jia Lian's words, her father gave her a second round of shock, how could he make decisions without discussing with her!
"Okay, Yan'er, that's it. Second Master Lian, three days, give us three days. At this time in three days, we're leaving. By the way, Second Master Lian, where do you live?" Xing Zhong stared He glanced at his daughter and asked back.
"Oh, I'm staying in the Ping'an Inn. Three days later, I'll have my servant Wang'er pick up my uncle, aunt, and cousin." Jia Lian said with a smile. It's enough for the Xing family to resolve the internal conflicts by themselves. The result is on the line.
"Father, why did you agree to go to the capital? Rongguo Mansion is something ordinary people like us can enter? Although our family is doing well these days, our family property is only two or three thousand taels of silver. What can Yin Zi do in the Duke's Mansion?" Xing Xiuyan asked anxiously.
Xing Liu said anxiously: "Yan'er, don't blame your father. I mean the same thing as your father. You are our daughter, and we as parents wish you well. Our family is in Gusu, and we have no relatives. Unaccompanied, your father and I are fine for a day, but if one day, we are no longer here, what will you do? Although the Jia family is a wealthy family, the words and deeds of the second master of Lian are still very fond of your aunt today. Respect, your aunt's status in the Jia family should be fairly stable, otherwise the eldest granddaughter of the Jia family would not have been raised by your aunt. With your aunt in charge, I will find a good marriage for you in the future. Guofu, you can live more comfortably in your in-law's house."
Xing Zhong nodded, "Your mother is right! We don't want you to marry into a wealthy family, at least someone will support you when you are wronged in the future."
Xing Xiuyan was speechless, she understood what Xing Zhong and his wife meant, but would Mrs. Xing support her and make the decision?She doesn't believe it anyway.It's just that she still doesn't know what's wrong and why these changes happened?She originally thought that as long as she stayed away from the plot, she could stay here safely, but now she was a little scared.The plot has already developed in an unknown direction, and there is still a tendency to get out of hand, which makes her a little worried, and she doesn't know how to deal with herself.
Seeing Xing Zhong and Xing Liu discussing whether to sell the house and land, Xing Xiuyan couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Father and mother, I didn't say that this house and land cannot be sold, this is the foundation of our family! Besides, Auntie picked us up for a temporary stay, do you want to stay longer?"
Xing Zhong smiled honestly, "We didn't plan to live with your aunt's parents, we thought about it. We sold the house and land, and bought a house in the capital, so we can settle down!"
Xing Xiuyan sighed helplessly, "Do you know how expensive things are in the capital? We can't buy any good houses with the money in our family. In my opinion, houses and land cannot be sold. In this case, even if there are any changes in the future, We also have a way out. It’s better to rent out the house, and the land is rented out anyway, and we’ll just come back and collect the rent every year. It’s okay if it’s a bit tricky here, anyway, the house deed and the land deed are in our hands!”
Xing Liushi thinks about it too, she doesn't want her husband to have 100% trust in that married eldest sister, she thinks it's better to leave some room for everything.Mrs. Xing and Liu nodded, "Yan'er is quite right. By the way, didn't the Second Master Lian say that he would go back to Gusu every year to visit that aunt's grave? Then you just come back with him."
Xing Zhongben was an uninitiated person. Seeing what his wife and daughter said, he changed his mind, "It's not impossible. It's just that our family didn't have much cash in the first place. We wanted to buy a house and land and keep more money with us. But in this way..."
Xing Xiuyan thought for a while, then turned around and entered the room. When she came back, she held a book and a bundle in her hand, "Father, here is the gold leaf given by Miaoyu. You can take it to the bank and exchange it for silver. And this I embroidered it when I was free, and the size is probably enough to make a kang. You can sell it at the embroidery shop! With these, it is enough to save some flowers. It is Rongguo Mansion, not our family can compare .We don’t compare ourselves with others, we live here if we live well, and we come back when we don’t live well. It’s not like we don’t have a home!”
Xing Zhong and Xing Liu nodded again and again. They were dazzled by the great news at first, but now they are a little more sober, yes!It is said that the third-rank officials in front of the prime minister's family, their family background like the Xing family is not enough to be seen in front of the Duke's mansion.They wanted Xiuyan to rely on the Duke's Mansion to find a good family, but they didn't intend to make their daughter compromise.If the Duke's mansion really sees people as inferior, then they will come back, anyway, the house and land are ready-made.
