[Red Mansion] Third Sister You's New Life in the Red Mansion

February has just passed, and the weather is still exceptionally cold.

It was rainy and frosty, and pedestrians were traveling hard. On the official road in the suburbs of Beijing, a group of chariots and horses were walking slowly. It was Xiuying and his party who had entered Beijing again.

Because there were too many things to do, Xiu Ying finally chose a day to go to Beijing after delaying until the end of the Chinese New Year.Before this trip, in front of Lu Dayong, she sold off the mountains and fertile land in the outskirts of the city, as well as the shops in Wuyi Lane, and she handed over every penny she got to him, letting him go first Go to Beijing and bring it to Zheng Shi.

Lu Dayong was dumbfounded.

He was willing to accept this matter, originally intending to make some money.He originally thought that Xiuying was young and ignorant, and planned to make a fortune selling land and shops here, and then went to sue Zheng, saying that Xiuying's farm and shop were not well managed and failed to sell for a good price.

Who knew, the matter of selling fields and shops was beyond his expectation.

Because of Xu Ying's order, the taller trees on the 100-odd mu of mountain land had been cut down and sold long ago, leaving only some low shrubs and weeds, which were too troublesome to cut and burn firewood; The irrigated land was also abandoned, and these two places really failed to sell for a price; as for the shop in Wuyi Lane, the front and back yards of the shop are indeed very large. The government filed a record and donated it in the name of Zheng, making it one of the places where the Tzu Chi Bureau specially helps the elderly, weak, sick and disabled in winter.The government found convenience, so they gave Xuanying a few taels of silver symbolically, and then presented a plaque of a family with good deeds, which she hung outside the narrow gate of Jiama Lane, which added a bit of style.

No matter how aggressive and greedy Lu Dayong was, he didn't have the courage to fight against the government.Of course he didn't agree to donate the shop just like that, but he was just a servant, and Xiuying was the daughter of the master's family, and she also had the house deed of the shop, so what's the use of his objection?

Thinking of this, Xiu Ying felt happy; of course, the main reason was that she had completely escaped from Zheng's captivity, and had taken the most solid step on her road to freedom.

She has managed to take care of herself alone. As for making her grandmother, younger siblings, and Yuan Xu live a better life, she will continue to work hard.

Before the new year, uncle Zheng Kun personally came to Jinling to pick Zheng Huai home.Before returning home, he took Zheng Huai and specially went to Jiama Lane as a guest. Of course, it was Yuan Xu and his grandmother who came to receive them.After learning about the changes in the Chu family in the past two years, my uncle was very shocked. After a little thought, he understood that this change was all because of Chu Ying. Without her, this family in Jinling City would not exist; All of what she did was planned and purposeful. Her goal was to stand on her own, without relying on anyone. Although her business was not self-made, it was considered a backdoor. In less than two years, she Already owned an industry and shop that belonged entirely to him.Although, everything is only in its infancy, but with her foresight and persistence, as long as she is given time, she can do better.

Because Zheng Huai was thinking about this second cousin, Geng naturally disagreed, but after all, she was his niece, Zheng Kun thought it was better to have a look first, so he came here specially this time.

Now that Mrs. Zheng has remarried, Zheng Kun is a little embarrassed now. Grandmother Mrs. Xu can't call him uncle and master anymore, but only Mr. Zheng. As for Yuan Lin and Chu Xiang, they are still called uncles; It's gone, so it's only called Shibo.

If we only talk about Chu Ying, Zheng Kun actually admires her very much, thinking that she is a match for Zheng Huai in all aspects, but after seeing this family, Zheng Kun hesitated again, Zheng Huai is an indifferent For a scholar, his official career and economics seem to be limited now. How can he afford this big family?Xiuying is so shrewd and capable. In the next generation, won't all the family's financial power be in her hands?If she is not burdened by this family, Zheng Kun believes that she will plan for her husband's family; but with so many people in the Hu family, it is impossible for her to ignore it, so it is more likely that she will help her mother's family in the future, how can this be possible?Therefore, he simply rejected Zheng Huai, and wanted to find a good match for him.

Zheng Huai was spoiled since he was a child, so he refused to go back to Yangzhou to celebrate the new year, so he ran to Jiama Alley every now and then.Chu Ying has always treated him with courtesy, so he thought that his cousin was also interested in him, but it was only hindering his parents; this made him feel that his parents were unreasonable, cousins, cousins, childhood sweethearts, why parents can't agree with them Woolen cloth?Even if the cousin's family is poor, the Zheng family's money is flowing through mountains and seas, but it's just not shown on the surface, so why can't he marry his cousin?

Chu Ying's gift was of course based on the business of the spice shop.She also recruited Zheng Huai to invest in the shares. The several hundred taels of silver were just Zheng Huai's pocket money, and he gave it away casually. He was even more happy to help Chu Ying.For some reason, Liu Xianglian found out about this, and he rushed to Jiama Lane that night.

Because of the many contacts with him, Yuan Xu's attitude towards him gradually warmed up, and the two of them could chat about many things.Grandma was still lukewarm, and left after greeting him; Yuan Xu was a little surprised by his sudden visit.However, Liu Xianglian only asked about the day's affairs in detail, and told Yuan Xu that if there is money to be used, just talk to him, why bother to find someone else.

Yuan Xu understood a little bit in his heart, but he was a cautious person and wanted to be sure, so he asked cautiously: "Liu Shaoxia, although we are a little familiar with you, my sister has always had the final say on money matters. ; Besides, for no reason, why should we spend your silver? Doesn't that seem very good?"

Liu Xianglian is not a person who is used to communicating with others, but he has been in the rivers and lakes for some time, so he naturally understands the importance of this father and brother to a woman, otherwise Xiuying would not bother to pick him up from his hometown in Suiyang. come over.Moreover, Yuan Xu is a smart person, if he cheats or deceives, he may be self-defeating; thinking of this, he bowed to Yuan Xu to the end, "Brother Xuan must know my thoughts; if I talk too much, It’s too frivolous, I’m afraid you won’t like it; as long as Brother Xi knows, I’m sincere and I’m planning for your sister wholeheartedly; whatever she wants to do, I’ll do my best to help her; she values ​​her family People, I also treat you as family members; it doesn’t matter if I have ulterior motives, but I just have ulterior motives for her, that’s all.”

Yuan Xu was stunned by Liu Xianglian's frankness, because after all, he was only a child of thirteen or fourteen years old, and he was focused on his career, and he hadn't mastered the matter of men and women.Hurrying to support Liu Xianglian, he said at a loss, "Since that's the case, why didn't Brother Liu tell my sister directly? Anyway, it's up to my sister to talk about family matters."

"Sooner or later. But to your sister, your opinion is also very important," Liu Xianglian straightened up, "You probably know what kind of person I am, all the way to Suiyang; as for her That cousin, since you have seen it, you should know what it is; I was ashamed to mention it with him, but now that he has come to the door, I would like to know, what is your sister thinking? Accepting his money? Why didn't you tell me if something happened?"

"Why should I tell you?" Xiu Ying walked out from the back room as she spoke, glanced at Yuan Xu, and then at Liu Xianglian, "Who are you to me? What should I say? What shouldn’t you say? You have the leisure to take care of my affairs, why not take care of your own affairs first.” Liu Xianglian was startled, as if she wanted to say something, but she held back in the end. I can't hide it either.

Xuanying was used to him arguing and bickering with her. He didn't speak, but such an expression appeared on his handsome face. Xuanying began to reflect on whether she was speaking too seriously, and couldn't help but look at him several times.

In any case, Liu Xianglian is different to her after all; since she came to this world, besides Master, Liu Xianglian is one of the men she knows best and has the most contact with; in other words, the two are affectionate The relationship is there, no matter to what extent, when they are together, the emotional changes of the two are enough to affect each other.

But Xiuying knew that it was far from the time for her to relax now, and these things about the love between her children still had to be put on the back burner.Besides, according to Fu Shan's intention, what Liu Xianglian is doing now is very important and dangerous.Then he shouldn't be distracted to take care of his own affairs, and he is doing it for his own good.

"I have a sense of proportion in my own affairs, so I don't need you to worry about it." As she spoke, Xiuying gave Yuan Xu a wink. Yuan Xu was about to say a few words for Liu Xianglian, when she saw her grandmother coming out of the back room, and hurriedly He said to Liu Xianglian: "Liu Shaoxia, please, it's getting late, we're quiet here, you can leave later, I'm afraid you won't see the way."

As soon as Liu Xianglian saw her grandmother come out, she knew it was inconvenient to say a lot.He looked at Xuanying, saw that she also gave him a consoling look, and his mood suddenly improved, so he said goodbye to them, "You are going to go out in a few days, Master asked me to come and take a look, Junior Sister's How is the itinerary going? Now that everything has been prepared, I will go back to Master; I have something important to do this time, so I won't accompany you, so be careful on the road." After finishing speaking, he went on again. go out.

"This little brother of the Liu family seems to be calmer now!" Grandma said with some doubts.

"I think it's the same. Compared with when we just met him, Liu Shaoxia has a lot more sense of propriety. He came this time only because someone from the Zheng family came. He is worried, so come and have a look." Yuan Xu said, while Helping the grandmother to walk into the house, "Don't worry, grandma, my sister is a successful person. If the surname Liu is really frivolous, how can Mr. Fu accept him as a disciple? How can my sister be willing to deal with him? Grandma think about it." Look, Liu Shaoxia has only been helpful to us all this time. Why do you have suspicions against him? After all, you still hate your sister, for fear that she will be deceived by others. If this Liu Shaoxia is more ordinary and has a more dull temper, grandma said Maybe you think he is just right? Maybe you have to match them up!"

"You monkey!" Mrs. Xu pretended to hit him twice in embarrassment, "I want you to talk! Aren't I also doing this for the sake of the whole family? If your sister trusts someone wrong, what should we do?" ?”

"Grandmother, my sister must be a woman after all. Even if she is capable and sensible, it is her filial piety; but you don't need to put all the burden of the whole family on her; besides, there is still me here? Wait until next year After entering Chunwei and passing the county examination, I will be famous at that time; if I continue to study hard, I will be just like my father, and I will pass the examination, and my family will be well-off, and I will definitely be filial. Grandma's."

"Then how many years do we have to wait? I don't know if I can live to that time!" Xu said with a sigh, "As long as I live, I will make plans for the younger generations of my family; It is true that only your sister is able to support our family, and I have no choice." Xu looked at Yuan Xu, "Besides, your sister also agreed, and I will make decisions about her marriage; I just want to find a safe and honest person, and I don't want to harm her."

"Married couples will live until they die. I have my own plans in this matter. When I make up my mind, I will tell my grandmother and let my grandmother decide for me; my grandmother doesn't have to worry about me." At some point, Xiuying followed up from behind and said to Xu.

Xu looked at her in surprise, and Xiuying smiled again: "Grandmother, I told you before, you just take care of your younger siblings and take care of the affairs of the house. What are you planning? Are you afraid that I will leave you alone? If I really don’t want to care about you, why should I just take you over from Suiyang? I just ignore you! You only care about your younger brothers and sisters, Don't care about me? Am I not your granddaughter? Could it be that because I am capable and sensible, you can manipulate me at will and make me unhappy? If you have this kind of heart, then you have made the wrong idea, don't If it's you, it's my own mother, don't even think about it!"

After Xiu Ying finished speaking, she didn't care about Xu's reaction, so she lifted her skirt and went straight to the attic.Xu was stunned for a moment, and the circles of her eyes turned red. Yuan Xu shook her head and comforted her: "Grandmother, it's been so long, you should have known what kind of temper my sister has, so why bother yourself? After all, We are all dependent on others, only my sister is living her life in a dignified way; my sister treats us kindly, we should also care about her, love her, instead of making her uncomfortable. Otherwise, why should she care about us? Is it In order to make yourself unhappy? Do you think this is the truth?"

Mrs. Xu didn't say a word, and sighed after a long time: "Forget it. I have lived most of my life in vain, and I am not as clear as a child like you. Tell your sister that I will never care about the outside world. Whatever she said, so be it."

On the second day, Yuan Xu told his sister exactly what Xu said.

Chu Ying had a lot of preoccupations at first, but after hearing Yuan Xu's words, for some reason, she felt relieved all of a sudden.Only now did she realize that Yuan Xu was smarter and more sensible than she imagined, and she picked up a treasure by accident.Even if he fails to start a career, it is enough to just be a man who can set up a family and start a family.

"Thank you, Yuan Xu."

Chu Ying said silently in her heart.

There were still more than a dozen miles away from the capital, and Chu Ying heard the noise from the side of the road, and slowly, there were more and more people.

"What's going on? Is there some big man behind us? Those people are here to welcome him? Should we hurry up so as not to get in the way of some noble person? After all, one thing more is worse than one thing less." While thinking, Chu Ying decided to ask Fu Shan to see what he had to say.

Lifting the curtain on the carriage and looking outside, Xuanying was stunned. Fu Shangao was sitting on the horse. These people surrounded Fu Shan in layers and looked behind. As many as a hundred people.

There are those with swords, some with big knives on their backs, and even some with chain hammers. There are also many dressed up as scholars.

Moreover, it seemed that these people were extremely respectful to Fu Shan. Although they didn't bow down, everyone bowed to the ground.

"The Qing Lord has entered the capital!"

"The sect brought his disciples here to pay respects to Lord Qing!"

"Young Lord's demeanor is the same as back then. How lucky are the disciples of his sect to see him in person. There are 14 disciples of Wanping's sect. How polite they are!"
