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

In the final analysis, it is because in this world, Xiuying lacks a sense of security. After all, she has such a wonderful mother; so she can't believe that Liu Xianglian will give up or make any choices for her.

Since she is not used to pinning her hopes on others, she chooses to save herself.

She dragged Jia Zhen in purposefully and in a planned way, in order to make good use of everyone in the two mansions.In fact, there is no need for Feng Ziying to put her under house arrest. She came to Jia's mansion this time to prepare for a protracted war. Even if it takes half a year, she will find a way to get her second sister away.

It's just that the master needs to know about this, and Liu Xianglian has to be mentally prepared, especially to be vigilant against Feng Ziying; no matter how good the two are, they must prevent someone from turning their faces ruthlessly and stabbing a knife in the back.

But she also knew that haste makes waste. If she acted hastily, not only Zheng would react violently, but even the people in the two mansions would not believe her, and she would not get any help.Only after living here for a long time and letting their guard down, can she realize her plan; after all, whether it is Youshi, Jia Zhen, or Xichun, they are just people she can use; I didn't intend to harm them. Besides, what's wrong with taking advantage of a pile of wine bags and rice bags, mud?

After this day, Xiuying and Xichun lived together in their small garden.Because Qin Keqing's ritual will last for 49 days, the garden is very lively, and the sisters come over almost every day, and Xiuying also takes this opportunity to win over people's hearts, connect with them, and have a heated fight with them.

By the time Qin Keqing's funeral was over, the weather was already warm.At the end of March, as expected, there was good news from the Rongguo Mansion that Jia Yuanchun had just chosen Fengzao Palace and was officially appointed as a concubine.

Mother Jia seemed to have discovered Chu Ying's arrival at this time, so she asked You Shi repeatedly, "Your third sister has come here early, why didn't she hear you say anything? Such a smart girl is not only eloquent, but also a very smart girl." Fu Xing, I'm waiting to see her! I'm the one who loves the most excitement, and when you come here in the future, take her with you, she and the girls in our family are already skilled, and you will have more companions in the future." When Chu Ying came with Youshi, she pulled Chu Ying to ask questions, very kindly.

She just found out today that she came to Ningguo Mansion?Chu Ying didn't believe it!It can be seen that because he looks down on Mrs. You and Second Sister, he is afraid that he is also a little liar who is used to talking, so even though he has been here for almost a month, the old man just pretends not to know.

Chu Ying didn't take it seriously either. After following Youshi to Rongguo Mansion, she still understood what people said when she saw anyone. Even she was respectful and polite to Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, as if she had forgotten the matter of her proposing marriage for herself at the beginning. .

Jia Lian only thought that the scheme had succeeded, so he kept her in the mansion. Although he didn't show it on the surface, he was secretly proud of himself, thinking that he had lived up to Feng Ziying's entrustment; he also knew a little about Chu Ying's ability, and felt that it should not be underestimated. , so he was still polite to Chu Ying.

Wang Xifeng didn't know what was going on, but she also thought it was her own idea to keep Third Sister You, and it seemed that Third Sister You was still kept in the dark, so she laughed secretly in her heart, and said to You Shi: "Your third sister It's clever, and it's very good at pleasing the old lady; you have to learn more."

Youshi smiled: "I might as well learn from you if I learn from her; who doesn't know that you are the most favored by the old lady, those of us who are clumsy and honest, even if we are saved for a while, we can't compare to you, so we should quit this door as soon as possible." Think about it."

Sister Feng covered her mouth and laughed loudly, "Look, isn't this amazing? After staying with your third sister for a while, your articulation has become more articulate. Now I don't talk to you anymore, but I really have something to ask you." : A few days ago, I ran into sister Xichun. She came to pack up her things and said she would go back to your place for a few days. I was surprised. This girl, who vowed not to go back before, is now going there all day long. Running around? She kept saying that her sister-in-law is sick and she has to go to take care of her. Did you give her any medicine?"

"Thank you for thinking it out!" You Shi smiled and poohed her, "It's just that my younger sister is sensible and has her own ideas; she said that she usually has a brother and a sister-in-law, so why should she be afraid of other people's remarks? Four; her brother is the head of the clan after all, and her sister-in-law is not evil, so why not treat her slowly and let others bully her? Can't it be compared to the one who is separated by layers?"

There was something in her words, Wang Xifeng was stunned when she heard it, she felt weird, her daughter-in-law died, and she fell ill again, this sister-in-law Zhen seemed to be a different person, she used to be blindly soft, but now she is fine, talking There is a needle hidden in it, so I can't underestimate her in the future, so I gradually calmed down, and asked after a while, "Did Brother Zhen not come over? I heard that the emperor's grace is great, and our mother is going home to visit relatives. We have to choose Dier is building a family-visiting villa, and the master and the second master have some important matters to discuss with him!"

As soon as Youshi heard this, he knew that he was going to discuss with Jia Zhen about the Fangyuan meeting.The third younger sister had reminded the couple before that the Ningguo Mansion had a small population and a large garden. If they wanted to build a family-saving villa for Concubine Yuan, Ningguo Mansion would have to spend money and money to make room for the garden. You have to follow the pick-up, clean up the aftermath and other matters; if it is done well, it should be taken for granted; It is the serious uncle of the country, what are they?

Jia Zhen got angry at that time, and told Xuanying that the two houses of Rongning and Ning were closely related, and for the sake of Concubine Jia Yuan's dignity in the palace, shouldn't he do everything right?What's more, he is still the patriarch!What does she know!

So Xiu Ying told Jia Zhen that he thought so, and others might not think so; she said that the concubine Yuan in the palace had been a concubine for a while, and the gifts that day were given, and now the gifts under the Dragon Boat Festival are also given away. Come out; just talk about the small things that have been handed down, sister Li Feng has them, but does Youshi have them?That's all for men, after all, apart from Baoyu, no one has been rewarded by the empress, not even Jia Huan. It can be seen that apart from this brother of the compatriot, who does the empress value?

What does this mean?It shows that this lady is not safe at all!She has been in the palace for many years, but she was conferred so suddenly. It is definitely not because the emperor was blind before, but now he suddenly discovered her benefits; The concubine made a lot of effort from it, otherwise it would be too rare for her to be favored suddenly as a female official; in the end, she was originally a female official serving Shumo, so she was equivalent to the emperor's liaison girl. , she came to power, what do those serious concubines and nobles think?

Another thing to say is that once the gate of the palace is as deep as the sea, the favor, honor and disgrace of the empress are all in the past and present; not to mention that there are queens on it, and there are old people who were there when the emperor buried his residence. Is it true that every family is so extravagant and extravagant?

For example, as the lord of the six palaces and the model empress in the world, does she have any intention of visiting her relatives?Besides, it is well stated in the decree that there is another courtyard in Chongyu, Guan Fang's home, and you can have sex with your illegitimate younger brother. Isn't this an opportunity to beat and warn these people?

Now the families of Concubine Wu and Zou Gui have started to build gardens. Both of these two families were enshrined at the same time as the empress, and they both have families to rely on, yet they are so extravagant and wasteful. Some people look at it with bitter eyes. If they are discussed by others and violate the new emperor's taboo, then they will regret it!However, Concubine Jia doesn't know how to be humble, and she still wants to be in the limelight, which is enough to show that her vision is too shallow, and she doesn't know how to advance or retreat. It is not known whether she will be a blessing or a curse in the palace in the future!

Jia Zhen originally scoffed at her words, but after listening to her analysis, she felt that there was some truth in it; it must be known that the rafters in the early days were rotten first, and a garden would cost a lot of money to build. Where did the money come from?And you can't expect the empress to bring money from the palace, isn't it all from Jia's property?So what are the benefits of building this garden?Just come back and take a look, and then ask outsiders to say that Concubine Jia's natal family is rich and dignified?

Now that she had thought about it, Jia Zhen didn't make much noise during the discussion; Jia Chi yelled that the garden in the north of Rongguo Mansion was too small, and she wanted to be like Concubine Wu's house. Jia Zheng shook his head, "That's not decent; in fact, we have enough space in our two mansions—I have an idea, the alley between our two mansions is full of people. Can you demolish all the houses of the servants, and then connect the Huifang Garden in the East Mansion with our garden in the north, so that we can build a big garden, and the original pavilions and terraces can be moved and used, which not only saves money Come, and it's roomy and decent,"

As he said that, he looked at Jia Zhen again, "Nephew, I'm not used to common affairs, so you have to take care of all the things that should be piled up in mountains, dug ponds, erected buildings and pavilions, planted trees and flowers." ; Well done, this is also our family's decency, and the empress's decency."

Jia Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and she was indeed hit by the third sister. The uncle who was separated from the room ordered him to take care of everything, and the old man wanted to be the shopkeeper!What do you do now that don’t require money or hands?This is to expect him to give up the big garden of Ningguo Mansion, but also to provide money and rice to do things?The Ningguo Mansion was not as prosperous as the Rong Mansion, and his father went to practice immortality again, so the income in the mansion was not much, otherwise he wouldn't care too much about the farm's harvest.

Besides, there are more uncles and aunts in his Ningguo Mansion than here, but he and Rong'er only respect the two uncles and the old lady, why?It's not because his Ningguo Mansion is in a weak position now!

Now that he had this thought, Jia Zhen hesitated; his father and son had the same virtues as Jia Lian, and the money in the frying pan had to be scooped up and spent. No one had woken him up before, but now he was asked by the third sister After saying a few words, he seemed to have figured something out, so he said: "Since the second uncle said so, the nephew has no reason to shirk; it's just that the situation in the nephew's house, the second uncle also knows; the age of the daughter-in-law I went there lightly, and I didn't want to bear it in my heart. I set up a land and water Taoist temple for her for seven to seven days, and more than half of this family property went first; Sanqing Statue, if you want my father to practice Taoism with peace of mind, there is really no extra money to subsidize the garden. Of course, I have nothing to say about giving up this Fangyuan, it is also for the sake of the dignity of the two houses; but this garden If you I don't know how much it will cost to buy it outside the city. If my second uncle is considerate of my nephew, I can convert it into some silver. As for the money for gardening, I need people and silver, it all depends on my second uncle's respect for our mother The meaning is, how much silver is prepared by the second uncle, the standard of how much silver the nephew plans to build, will never disgrace the face of the second uncle and the empress! I will put in more effort, which is also due, and the second uncle will not use it Thank you!"

Both Zheng and Chi were startled when they heard the words, they looked at Jia Zhen as if they were strangers.Jia Zhen smiled unnaturally: "What do the two uncles see me for? I beg you, return it after you use it, not to mention such a large garden! Whether you rent or buy, I didn’t strangle you, and it was just for your convenience; I made it even if I didn’t sell it. to the extent!"

"Brother Zhen, are you kidding me? We also need money to buy your garden?" Jia Chi said in amazement.

Jia Zheng was so angry that his beard trembled wildly, "Brother Zhen, you are now the head of the patriarch; it is a major event for the family to visit your mother, how can you be so ignorant of current affairs and unreasonable? Isn't it also our family who has a face? Is it decent?"

"That's the face of my second uncle, and it has nothing to do with me; if I say I'm unreasonable, it's up to my father, and the old man doesn't care about it, why don't you go to the Taoist temple outside the city and talk to him? You don't need it My seniority oppresses me, but then again, Second Uncle should have pity on me. I have only one empty job now, and my daughter-in-law has no good family to rely on; unlike Second Uncle, Second Wife and Sister Feng are from the Wang family Yes, the dowry back then was so generous that even the old lady had enough money, why did my second uncle come to embarrass me?" Jia Zhen was a shameless person, since she had made up her mind to break up with the Rongguo Mansion, Of course he could say anything.

"Okay, okay, brother Zhen, today you have made your point clear, and we are not begging you; you just want money, anyway, we have to spend money to buy it elsewhere, that's all, so as not to be cheap Outsiders; you just talk about how much it costs? And how much those flowers and trees pavilions, earthworks, bricks and tiles, gold, silver, copper and tin utensils will cost, we have figured it out, and follow the rules; but the construction of this garden, Dongfu's You are in charge of the side cage, we will let Lianer take care of it here, if there is anything wrong, I will only ask you two!" Jia Zheng is not an ordinary person, but Jia Chi is a lazy person. He doesn't work in the imperial court, and doesn't socialize in the world, so when something happens, he often pushes it around like this. Anyway, the family has enough money to toss, as long as he can sit on his hands and lie down.

"That's it, my nephew takes orders!" Although supervising the construction of the garden is also a labor-intensive task, such a toss and turn has turned into a large amount of money for nothing, which is much more beneficial than giving away for nothing.Although Jia Zhen felt a little strange, she was still secretly happy in her heart; coupled with the oil and water of supervising the garden, even Rong'er and Qiang'er could share some common affairs in it, which was another big profit.

Don't blame Jia Zhen's shallow eyelids. Although he is used to extravagance, he is also the head of the family. He has no elders to rely on, no brothers to support, and a whole family of old and young depend on him to support him. He is usually in the general affairs If there is someone to study, otherwise he wouldn't even care about the lack of harvest on the farm; he didn't think so much before, but after his third aunt reminded him, he realized that this Rongguo Mansion is a rich man, isn't it? , Now that another empress is born, why is he looking elsewhere for love?

Moreover, when he was down and out in the future, could he expect someone to help him?The old lady over there only favors the second wife, and even her own son, the elder, can't get anything in front of her, let alone him?He can't force himself!

Thinking of this, Jia Zhen felt more at ease.
