The Five Girls of the Lin Family in the Red Chamber

It is impossible for Wang Xifeng to find out how Lin Jing knew about the secret matter. After she had a few girls, she could only let it go. She is not an idiot. When she didn't know how Lin Jing could know, She didn't want to offend Lin Jing too much, but Lin Jing's existence seemed like a knife hanging on her head, which made her feel threatened all the time.

Wang Xifeng was very busy with the construction of the provincial garden, and people from all over the place came looking for her to find an errand, which was easy to handle, but where did the money for the garden come from? Regardless of the matter, I only added money to her, but it was a drop in the bucket after all, not to mention, she didn't have the face to find the old lady, if it got out, it would have to be said that she, Wang Xifeng, was incompetent and couldn't even handle a family well. When I fell short, I came to the old lady for help.

Ping'er saw Wang Xifeng getting angry, and he couldn't bear it, he said: "Grandma, if not, let's go and see the old lady, and tell the old lady about grandma's difficulties. Grandma has to think about it on her own." Ping'er frowned, glanced at Wang Xifeng, and said: "Even if the old lady can't help it, there is still a wife, the eldest girl is the daughter of the wife's direct relative, so she can't care about it." Is it? If the garden is not well maintained and the eldest girl loses face, will the wife have face?" So she said that her grandma should not be the one who is most worried.

Wang Xifeng squinted her phoenix eyes, clenched her fists and said, "Do you really think that the old lady and the lady don't know anything?" She rolled her eyes, sneered, and said, "Now that the old lady and the lady don't talk, it must be There is no good way yet, this is just the beginning, this garden, how can we not do without money? The cost of buying flowers, candles, lanterns, curtains and tents of various colors, the flower items for planting trees and flowers in the garden, and the pillars on the beams The cost of painting and carving, as well as the purchase of various items, there must be regulations for each of these items, but there is no way that the money available in the house will be enough."

Ping'er pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice, and said, "Grandma, at Lixiangyuan..."

Wang Xifeng hurriedly signaled her to silence, shook her head and said: "The Xue family is rich, and the wife is my aunt, but the aunt and wife are not unfriendly. It's not easy for people to be orphans and widowed, and I'm a junior. The words should not be mentioned."

"It's reasonable for grandma not to mention it, but what about my wife." Ping'er frowned.

"Oh, what is Madam going to do? As a junior, how can I have the right to speak?" Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Earlier when my wife came to the house, she only said that Bao girl was going to be drafted into the palace. I chose, but how is it now? I lost the election but still live in the house, if my aunt has no other thoughts, I would not believe it." Wang Xifeng motioned Ping'er to pinch her legs, and said: "Earlier, the old lady only wanted to marry Lin The younger sister promised Baoyu, but the wife would not be willing, Bao girl just happened to fall into the wife's eyes, and now if the wife talks about Baoyu's daughter-in-law, she is not afraid that the concubine will not be tempted."

Ping'er frowned, and thought for a moment before saying: "Grandma means..." She slightly scrutinized Wang Xifeng's expression, thinking that Miss Jing is so strong, can she answer her plan?

"What do I mean?" Wang Xifeng tilted her body and smiled coquettishly, "Although I am my wife's niece, I am the wife of a big family after all. If Baoyao is really married to Baoyu, there is no place for me. According to how the old lady dotes on Baoyu, this housekeeper's wife must be a treasure girl." Wang Xifeng sighed, and then said: "But Daiyu is different. Daiyu has always been impatient with these vulgar things. I grew up next to the old lady, and no one taught her these things, when the time comes, the power of housekeeping will not fall to me?"

"Grandma still understands clearly." Ping'er smiled flatteringly, and frowned again in a blink of an eye, saying: "But now with Miss Jing..."

Wang Xifeng pursed her lips, and was silent for a moment, then let Ping'er listen to her, and said in a low voice: "We don't need to worry about this matter, the old lady will worry about Miss Jing's affairs."

Ping'er looked at Wang Xifeng suspiciously.

"My silly Pinger, why do you think the old lady left Miss Jing at the house." She sneered, raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Your second master went to Yangzhou and only got 10 taels of silver , although it sounds like a lot, but at the beginning, my wife calculated that the Lin family would have about two to three million taels, and the Lin family is left with Sister Lin, but Sister Lin is so childish, where did the money go?"

Ping'er was shocked, quickly covered his mouth and glanced left and right, then lowered his voice and said, "Grandma means that all the money is in Miss Jing's hands?"

"I'm afraid it's almost the same." Wang Xifeng's eyes flashed brightly, and said: "If you don't get this money, the wife will not allow Miss Jing to leave the house."

"The old lady..."

"Don't look at the old lady and don't care about things now, but in this house, there is no such thing as her being unconscious." Wang Xifeng rubbed the center of her brows, and then asked: "Go out and see where the second master is now." ?”

Ping'er went out to search around, but he didn't see Jia Lian. He only found out after asking his mother-in-law, saying that Mr. Qin was useless. "I saw Qin Xianggong earlier, why is it so useless?"

"But we didn't think about it, we just said it was the wind, and we couldn't get up in a few days." The woman sighed.

Ping'er also sighed, and said: "When the second master comes back, send someone to tell me that grandma needs to find the second master."

"Come on, Miss Ping, when the second master comes in, I'll send someone to go back to grandma." The woman said with a smile.

Ping'er twitched the corners of his mouth, but didn't say anything else, and walked towards Wang Xifeng's courtyard, when there happened to be a burst of laughter from a distance, Ping'er was worried, and walked towards there quickly, and saw two Miss Lin from a distance Sister Bing Sanchun was sitting together talking and laughing.

Ping'er walked in, only to see that Yingchun was playing the qin, and Miss Jing was holding a long sword, dancing sword under the pear tree. , I heard a commotion, but I saw that Xue Da fool was standing at the corner door in a daze, his eyes were about to shine when he looked at Lin Jing.

Ping'er's heart tightened, and before he had time to say anything, she saw that Miss Jing was throwing Xue Dafool's clothes with a sword, and the embroidered shoes embroidered with pearls directly stepped on Xue Dafool's face, raising her eyebrows Asked: "Are you peeking at me?"

Xue Dafool ​​seemed to have not reacted yet, with an unpleasant smile on his face, he said: "The girl is beautiful." Then he remembered, and asked quickly: "Who is the girl? Why have I never Have you seen the girl?"

Lin Jing took a careful look at him and saw that he didn't have any bad intentions, and his expression was a little weird.

Xue Baochai came with Xiangling and Ying'er, and happened to see Xue Pan who was being trampled by Lin Jing, she was shocked, walked over quickly, and asked, "This...what's going on?" He stared dumbfounded at the sight of his brother being stepped on, but still had a foolish smile on his face, and couldn't bear to look straight at him.

Lin Jing blinked her eyes, moved her feet, and said, "Is he your brother?"

Xue Baochai only felt a little embarrassed, but still nodded, bowed to her, and said: "Miss Jing, if my brother has anything against her, I will apologize to her." She stared rather resentfully. My elder brother glanced at him, but he didn't expect that he stared at the blind man, his elder brother looked at Lin Jing everywhere, so he couldn't see her wink.

Lin Jing snorted and said with a smile: "Since it's your brother, then take it back." Then she took her foot off his face, hesitated for a moment, walked to Xue Baochai's side, and patted her. shoulder, and said earnestly: "It's hard for you to have such a brother." Usually, when Daiyu talked about Baochai's brother, she was full of envy. dropped.

Xue Baochai blushed, and asked Xiangling and Yinger to help Xue Pan leave.

After Xue Pan left, Tanchun laughed out loud, and said, "Brother Xue has lost face today." She looked at Lin Jing, but she had some calculations in her heart. Look at her demeanor, I am afraid that she will fall in love with this girl Jing at a glance. She is considered the No. But oil and salt do not enter, which makes Tanchun feel depressed.

Yingchun pursed her lips and smiled lightly.

Lin Jing didn't pay much attention to Tanchun, walked up to Yingchun, tilted her head, and said with a smile: "You play this song really well." She looked at Yingchun, suddenly felt a little depressed, pursed her lips, and said: " My mother also plays this song very well."

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Yingchun didn't know how to comfort her. She was quite at a loss, but Tanchun was alert, walked up to Lin Jing, and said with a smile: "Look, sister, she was fine just now, but now she seems to be crying again. Normally, if the wife asks about this, she won't spare us."

Lin Jing pursed her lips, she didn't like Tanchun, and she always felt that she was planning to get close to her.

She really doesn't know how to hide her emotions. Seeing that Tanchun was a little embarrassed, Daiyu smiled and said, "Don't pay attention to her, it will be fine in a while." Walking to Lin Jing, she tugged at her sleeve, and blamed her Said: "It's just a piece of music, if you want to learn, I'll teach you."

Lin Jing knew that she was comforting herself, so she raised her eyebrows and said, "I still need your teaching? I know a lot more than you." As she spoke, she walked to Yingchun, seeing her worried face, Lin Jing raised her eyebrows. With a big smile, she said: "Don't worry too much, I just suddenly thought of my mother." She just felt that Yingchun's plain, gentle and gentle appearance was very similar to Zhao's, and she was a little dazed for a while.

However, Xue Baochai brought Xue Pan back to Lixiangyuan, and said angrily at that time: "What does brother want to do? Just being trampled under his feet like that, brother still has face? Even if brother doesn't care, what about me?" Xue Baochai Covering his face, he began to cry, crying: "Sister usually stays in the garden with her sisters. If you are like this, what face will my sister have to go to the garden?"

Xue Pan frowned and stood in front of Xue Baochai with his neck stuck. Although he doted on his sister, he would not let her point her nose and scold, "Yes, I'm the one who got you in trouble. I'll die in the next morning." Outside, it doesn't implicate you anymore, but it falls into the cleanliness!"

When Xue Baochai heard this, she felt very wronged, and cried, "Look, what are you talking about!" He pulled his stubborn son and said: "You still don't apologize to your sister, what did you say!" As he spoke, he beat his son, hoping that his daughter wouldn't get angry.

Xue Pan kept avoiding his mother's fist. Although it didn't hurt, he felt uncomfortable. He didn't do anything, but he was yelled at by his sister, and his mother beat him indiscriminately. He still had face.

Seeing Baochai crying non-stop, Xue Pan felt a little sorry. Seeing his mother asking the reason, Xue Pan blushed suddenly, and knelt down straight to Aunt Xue. Don't beat him, even Baochai stopped crying and looked at his brother with red eyes.

Seeing the two of them stopped, Xue Pan's face turned red and his heart was pounding. He couldn't say a word for a long time. When Aunt Xue asked anxiously, he closed his eyes and shouted: "Mother, my son wants to marry Miss Jing!"
