Before Jia Lian entered the main room, he heard Wang Xifeng cursing in anger: "Second Master Lian came here when he came, and he deserves to be stung by scorpions? Who hasn't seen anyone before?"

There is a pause in the walking steps. Is it because I said that the winter solstice came to pick up people but failed, and Sister Feng got angry again?It seems that he is angry because he is uncomfortable living in Zhuangzi, and he can't bear the shame to go back to the house by himself.Thinking of this, Jia Lian only felt refreshed physically and mentally: so what about a strong woman, she would feel guilty after being cold for a few days.Guessing that Wang Xifeng lost her temper because she couldn't return home early, Jia Lian decided to be magnanimous and ignore the fact that she didn't come out to greet him.

"Anyway, you can't comb your hair out of nowhere like this. Go and let your hair down before you talk. If you don't listen, you don't have to go back home with me, and I can't afford you." Wang Xifeng said to Ping'er became ruthless.

When Jia Lian entered the room and saw Ping'er's hair, he knew that he had thought too much just now.But Ping'er regarded him as a life-saving straw to buffer Sister Feng's anger: "The second master is here, why is it so early today, have you eaten yet?"

What else did Wang Xifeng have to say, Ping'er only thought that he had greeted Jia Lian with all the courtesy, and had already left the house as if fleeing for his life.Wang Xifeng knew that as long as Ping'er came out of the room and let everyone see her hair style, then the matter of her self-combing would be settled.In fact, Ping'er got up early and went to her place for a walk, and it was not unnoticed.But the people in Zhuangzi have been subdued by her, and they dare not spread gossip.But now that Jia Lian is here, he must have brought a lot of people, and these people can't help her.

Add chaos!This was Wang Xifeng's deepest feeling when she saw Jia Lian. You said that you couldn't be your dandy in Rongguo Mansion and send a servant away for a while. Why do you want to show the love between husband and wife at this time?

Jia Lian, who was glanced at by Sister Feng, did not feel Wang Xifeng's malice at all, but her heart fluttered for a while. She only felt that Sister Feng had returned to her newly-married demeanor these days, and she could not help but think of it.

If Wang Xifeng knew Jia Lian's thoughts at this time, he would probably call this person a jerk.Fortunately, she didn't know that she was trying to suppress her anger and adjust her thinking.And Jia Lian thought that Sister Feng would not see him for a long time, so he was a little emotional when they first met.

Also out of the mentality of giving Sister Feng a step, Jia Lian said: "Why are you so noisy in the early morning? Why don't you see Sister Qiao?"

Wang Xifeng also had no intention of arguing with him, so she just followed the words and asked Sister Qiao to come and see Jia Lian.While waiting for Sister Qiao's son, the two of them had nothing else to talk about, they just faced each other silently.Wang Xifeng didn't want to talk, Jia Lian didn't know what to say: what he said just now was not without ambiguity, if it turned out that Sister Feng would have yelled at him, but now Sister Feng can bear it, so he has to face Sister Feng squarely I don't want to care about his facts.

Fortunately, sister Qiao's arrival eased the embarrassment in the room.Seeing her father again after a long absence, Sister Qiao was still a little strange at first, so she said hello to her father according to the courtesy, and then she nestled next to Sister Feng and said nothing.

At this time, Ping'er had calmed down and served the tea herself, not caring that Sister Feng's eyes were burning when she looked at her hair.Jia Lian took a sip of tea before saying to Sister Qiao, "Father is here to take Sister Qiao home, is Sister Qiao happy?"

Sister Qiao looked at Jia Lian with some doubts: "Is that mother going back together?"

Jia Lian was happy: "Of course we want to go back together."

Only then did Sister Qiao nod in relief: "Mother goes back, and Sister Qiao also goes back." Then she asked: "I heard from Aunt Ping'er that Dad came to pick us up when he said the winter solstice, why didn't he come? Let someone say it?"

Jia Lian could explain the former question, but it was difficult to answer the latter question, so he continued to flicker: "Master asked Dad to go to work, and Dad left in a hurry, so I didn't have time to let people talk about it."

Sister Qiao didn't know whether she believed it or not, she just lowered her head and said nothing.Jia Lian had no choice but to say to Sister Feng: "It's getting late, let them clean up too. We have to hurry to the city."

Sister Feng knew that this time she had to go back no matter what, after all, she had agreed to go back to Rongguo Mansion for the New Year when she left.I also heard that Mrs. Wang Ziteng has returned to Beijing, and it is not easy to leave her alone in the Zhuangzi if she wants to come to Rongguo Mansion.After signaling Ping'er to take someone to clean up, Wang Xifeng finally said to Jia Lian: "We have to eat lunch, otherwise there will be no place to shoot on the road. Adults are easy to say, but sister Qiao can't be hungry."

Jia Lian nodded naturally.Sister Qiao still has a problem: "Mother, what should I do? What about the vegetables I grow? What about Le'er and the others?"

"Growing vegetables?" Jia Lian didn't care about Le'er's name, which sounded like a servant, and only thought about his daughter, the heir of the Rongguo Mansion, so why did he grow vegetables?Wang Xifeng thought disdainfully in her heart, if she didn't have herself, you, the daughter of the heir of the Rongguo Mansion, might have to go to the brothel for a while.

Sister Qiao smiled and said to Jia Lian: "Yes, it is the vegetables that Sister Qiao grows herself. Mother eats all the vegetables planted by other people, and only Sister Qiao keeps them." Seeing that Jia Lian didn't believe it, he went to see it. own results.

Jia Lian looked at the wooden trough and found out what Sister Qiao's so-called vegetable planting was all about, and she was relieved, it turned out to be this way of planting, it's okay, it's okay, it's just that his daughter loves to be curious , Others raise flowers... or grow vegetables.

But Sister Qiao still pestered Wang Xifeng to ask non-stop, so Wang Xifeng had no choice but to say to her: "Sister Qiao has been out for such a long time, and there is nothing to honor the old lady, so I honor the vegetables grown by Sister Qiao." Is the old lady okay?"

Jia Lian visually inspected the size of the wooden trough, and felt that even if all the vegetables in it were pulled out, it would be enough to fry a plate.However, green vegetables are rare in such a season, and they can really be regarded as brilliant.

Sister Qiao got an idea, and was also happy: "Okay, I will show my filial piety to the old lady. I see that some vegetables in other houses have grown again, so let's take them back to the house together." Wang Xifeng thought the idea was good, and it happened to save money. The annual gifts I give to everyone: Anyway, I came to Zhuangzi to recuperate from illness, and those people can't ask her to return a lot of good things to show respect.

Over here, Sister Qiao heard that the five of Le'er could go back to the mansion with her, so she was even more happy to personally instruct them to pack their things.Only then did Jia Lian have the opportunity to ask Wang Xifeng: "Why did you choose so many maids for Sister Qiao? The second sister and the others only have two big maids."

Wang Xifeng snorted through his nose: "Second Sister? Did Second Master Lian forget that Sister Qiao and Second Sister have different identities? Our Sister Qiao is a legitimate daughter."

Now Jia Lian had nothing to say, he had seen Yuan Chun's pomp when he was at home, but he was surrounded by four big girls and countless little girls.However, he still has some concerns: "You know what's going on in the mansion now, I'm afraid the wife is not very willing."

Looking at the man in front of him who was the only one whose second wife was his life, Sister Feng only told him: "Second Master Lian, Sister Qiao is your daughter." Successfully left Jia Lian with nothing to say.

Since it was already the twelfth lunar month, Wang Xifeng had expected that someone would come to pick her up back home, so she had already put all the important things with Ping'er in the secret room of her house.What I pack now is just my clothes and jewelry.Sister Qiao didn't have anything there, so it was faster to clean it up.

However, the five girls in her room wanted to say goodbye to their family members, so they had some affection.Because I had to go back to the city, I was in a hurry for lunch.Sister Feng only told Li Xi, the head of the village, to watch the yard well, and no one was allowed to enter or leave except for the cleaning woman, and there were people watching the night as usual every night.Li Xi originally thought that once the master left, the good job of watching the night would be gone. Hearing that he could continue, he naturally could not afford it.

But Jia Lian felt that Sister Feng was making a fuss out of a molehill: "If you don't come and stay, what else do you care about?"

Sister Feng said with a smile or not: "Whether I will come to the Zhuangzi or not, of course, the second master Lian has the final say. It's just that people have immediate worries without long-term considerations. How did I ever think that I would come to the Zhuangzi one day?" ’” Jia Lian couldn’t make a sound again.

There is no other words along the way.When I got back to the mansion, I had to go and say hello to Jia Mu first.Seeing them coming, Hu Po waited a long time to come up to say hello: "The old lady has already read it a few times, and she also said why the second grandma hasn't come back, isn't she afraid that she won't be able to catch up with the Laba porridge?"

Sister Feng also joked: "I just thought that the Laba porridge from the old lady's place is delicious, so I hurried back here."

Yuanyang personally closed the curtain and waited, and said to Sister Feng who was still joking with Hu Po and the others: "The porridge will only be available tomorrow, and Second Mistress must be indispensable. Please come in quickly, the old lady can't wait to come and invite you in person." gone."

Then Sister Feng brought Sister Qiao into the main room.I saw that Jia Mu and Mrs. Xing and Wang were present, not to mention, even the Sanchun sisters, Baochai and Baoyu were also a lot.It is unavoidable to come forward to greet Jia Mu.Because I came back from a long journey, I couldn't do the usual rituals, so the witty girl had already spread the futon.

After Sister Feng and Sister Qiao had finished saluting, Mother Jia asked Yuanyang to help her up quickly: "What are we girls doing talking about those vulgar etiquettes? Come here and let me have a good look. I have suffered a lot in Zhuangzi."

Wang Xifeng came to Jia Mu's seat with a smile: "It's hard for me, old lady, look, I'm much better now? Even sister Qiao has gained weight."

Only now did Mother Jia shift her gaze to Sister Qiao, which made Sister Feng feel contemptuous: If she really loves her only great-granddaughter, why isn't she as affectionate as she is to her great-granddaughter?Had to be reminded to notice.

But that's fine, just looking at Jia Lan, you can tell that children who are not valued by others will not pay much attention to these so-called relatives.When the time comes, I will take sister Qiao away, so that the child will not be troubled by it.

Nanny Li's manners are good, Sister Qiao has learned from her for almost two months, no matter how she salutes or speaks, they are not the same as when she was in the mansion.Even Jia's mother said to Wang Xifeng, "Sister Qiao, you teach very well. You have a good temper, unlike you."

Responding to such a joke, Sister Feng opened her mouth when she recalled her words: "Isn't it like me to have a loss, or else I won't be able to bear the loss now. People only look at my majesty, and they don't know the suffering behind me. People say they can bite People’s dogs don’t bark, so I’ve come here the other way around. Don’t ask this kid to have any means, just protect yourself.”

Although Sister Feng said this with a smile, everyone laughed too, but everyone understood that Sister Feng hadn't forgotten why she went to Zhuangzi.

On the first day back to the mansion, Wang Xifeng just showed his attitude to the people in the mansion, telling them that not everything can be covered up.Now that the goal has been achieved, I stopped talking and said to Jia Mu with a smile: "I went to the Zhuangzi. I really don't have anything good to honor the old lady. It's just a little thing planted by Sister Qiao. I want to add some food to the old lady." He waved out.

Jia's mother was also happy to change the subject, and said in her mouth: "How old is Qiao, you make the child tired, I will not obey." But her eyes were on the tray in Xiaohong's hand.

When she came, Sister Feng intentionally added a gimmick and asked someone to cover the tray with a red cloth.Seeing everyone's eyes on the plate now, he smiled and nodded to Xiaohong.Xiaohong carefully peeled off the red cloth, only to reveal a plate of tender, green vegetables.

Jia Mu was surprised and said, "How did you grow such weather?"

Sister Qiao smiled and said: "Go back to the old lady, it was planted in the house."

Jia Mu laughed and said: "This must be your mother's idea. No one else has such an idea except her. It's just that she thought it up, so she should plant it herself. Why do you make my sister Qiao work so hard? "

Sister Qiao replied obediently: "It's not bitter, it's not bitter. Seeing the vegetables I planted grow little by little, and they are different every day, Sister Qiao is very happy. Mother said, Sister Qiao is just like this little vegetable seedling. It's different every day."

Jia Mu smiled and said: "Okay, okay. My sister Qiao said it well, and your mother is better than that. It can be seen that after going to Zhuangzi, my mind is calm and my people have grown up."

Hearing Jia's mother beating herself, Wang Xifeng didn't show it on the face, she was dissatisfied, and said: "It can be seen that in the eyes of the old lady, I am not calm enough. After the new year, I will go to Zhuangzi to live. For a while, it's good to practice and practice."

She glanced at Wang Xifeng calmly, and found that her face was full of sincerity. It can be seen that what she said came from her heart, and Jia's mother was a little surprised. Could it be that Feng girl has not changed her mind?Or is it because she went to Zhuangzi, and no one in the mansion greeted her, which made her feel even more chilled?It's just that she is an old Fengjun, so she can't make mistakes.The one who was wrong was Mrs. Wang, who was in charge of the family, and she had to give Mrs. Wang a hard look.

Before Mrs. Wang could talk to Sister Feng, she suffered an indiscriminate disaster and was a little confused.It was also because Mrs. Wang Ziteng returned to Beijing, and when she was complaining about her whereabouts, she was scolded by Mrs. Wang Ziteng, blaming her for being an aunt who had no guts, and for a few taels of money to heal her anger with the younger generation.He also asked her to repair her relationship with Wang Xifeng no matter what, so that no one would see the jokes about the daughter of the Wang family.

Even if you feel that your sister-in-law doesn't hurt her back while standing and talking, it's not a matter of a few taels of money.But Mrs. Wang also had to listen to Mrs. Wang Ziteng, because both she and her concubine daughter had to count on Wang Ziteng.

Seeing Mother Jia staring at her now, Mrs. Wang had no choice but to say: "Once the old lady sees Feng girl, she doesn't care about anything else. Let us see Feng girl too."

Finally, to save face for Mrs. Wang, Mother Jia released Sister Feng and asked her to greet the two wives.Sister Feng saluted Xing and Wang in turn, which is considered a thorough etiquette.After meeting the sisters again, Wang Xifeng asked inadvertently, "Why don't you see Sister Lin? But you're not feeling well?"

Jia's mother had a look of surprise on her face: "You didn't know when you went to the Zhuangzi, but your sister Lin is not in the mansion anymore."

Sister Feng pretended not to know: "Why, where else can I go if I am not in the mansion?"

Jia Baoyu jumped out, his tone full of dissatisfaction: "I don't know where Uncle Lin came from the same year. He said that he and Uncle Lin had some kind of acquaintance, so he had to pick up Sister Lin to their house. He also said that it was Sister Lin. I'm still in the period of filial piety, and now it's not easy to live in the garden where my mother was happy, for fear of offending my mother. I also found a nanny from the palace for Sister Lin. Sister Feng didn't know, but that nanny was, tsk! "

It seems that the Li family is really capable, and such reasons can be given.Wang Xifeng secretly smiled, but still looked at Jia Mu with puzzled eyes: "The old lady thinks this is appropriate?"

Mother Jia knew that it was inappropriate to let Daiyu leave the mansion, but the Li family spoke in accordance with the rules and etiquette, which are still the rules that the world agrees with, not the rules improved by the Rongguo Mansion itself, so what can she say?There is also a nanny who came out of the palace to watch!Even if you are unwilling, you have to endure it for the sake of your empress.

With a smile, Jia's mother said: "People always have good intentions. It is always good for someone to love your sister Lin more."

Sister Feng nodded in agreement, and asked why she didn't see Mrs. Zhu.Jia's mother only said that Li Wan was preparing for the evening family banquet and wanted to welcome Wang Xifeng.Wang Xifeng took the opportunity to resign, she had to go back and take a shower anyway.

Only now did Mother Jia seem to realize that Wang Xifeng and her daughter had just returned home, and they must be very tired. She also resented Yuanyang for not reminding her, and asked someone to open her own private warehouse to fetch things to reward Sister Feng and her daughter. Played ten to ten.

After leaving Jia Mu's yard, the people who came to Sheng's family had already followed her there, bowed to Sister Feng, and said with a smile: "It can be regarded as waiting for grandma. The old lady also loves grandma, and she won't let her go when she sees grandma. "

Sister Feng responded and asked, "Is everything okay at home?"

Knowing what she wanted to ask, the person who came to Sheng's house picked up what he thought was important and replied: "It's still quiet in the yard. The people brought back by grandma are all packing up. It's Miss Qiao's girls who don't know what to do. How to arrange it."

Really forgot about it.Sister Feng said as she walked: "Find someone to talk to the third girl, and say that I brought it back from Zhuangzi to use for Sister Qiao. Let Ping'er arrange the place to live."

Those who came to Sheng's house agreed, and followed Wang Xifeng back to his yard.I am used to living in Zhuangzi. At first glance, I am not used to the small yard.In addition, there are fewer people in Zhuangzi and more things to do, and the people who follow each perform their own duties and do their own work.Seeing the people in the yard again, Wang Xifeng felt a little unhappy in his heart because he was afraid that others would have to yell and do things without knowing that he was working.

Before she had time to speak, a soft voice came from beside her ear: "Welcome grandma back home, please greet grandma."

Looking sideways, it turned out that Qiu Tong was guarding the gate of the courtyard.Seeing her being respectful, Sister Feng took a look at her: "Get up, you have worked hard these days." She has already taken people to her house.

Ping'er didn't go to Rongqing Hall with Sister Feng just now, just to clean up the house so that Sister Feng and his mother can have a rest as soon as they enter the house.At this time, Kankan finished cleaning up. Seeing Sister Feng entering the house, she hurriedly asked for water to be brought up.That Qiutong also followed into the room, pretending to serve Sister Feng.

Feng'er herself hasn't had a chance to get close to her master, so how could she give her a chance.In addition, Qiutong is not familiar with the situation in Sister Feng's children's room, so she can only have the heart to show her courtesy, but has nowhere to exert her strength.

Wang Xifeng knew the way of employing people well, and she took advantage of Feng'er's service, and she didn't forget to give some benefits: "I'm not here these days, and you have worked hard guarding the yard. Now that your sister Ping'er is back, I will let you take a few days off , go back and reunite with the family. Pinger, the people left in our yard will be rewarded with one month's monthly money each. Feng'er and those who come to Sheng's family will be rewarded for two months."

Feng'er and those who came to Sheng's family were naturally thankful, but Qiu Tong was angry: she also stayed in the yard, why did grandma only talk about Feng'er and Lai Sheng's hard work, but she didn't seem to see her?Even the money for rewarding the moon, it only rewarded Feng'er and Lai Sheng's family more, but it didn't matter to her.

Fortunately, the ten sticks hit her butt so hard that she didn't dare to talk too much, but who couldn't see that face?Sister Feng didn't want her to make trouble for herself in this house, so she asked her to go back to the back room to rest.Unexpectedly, Qiutong had to say: "I should serve grandma, grandma hasn't rested yet, so there is no reason for me to go and rest by myself."

Sister Feng took one look at her, and then she stopped caring about her, and only asked Feng'er some trivial matters.Feng'er replied in a very orderly manner: "During the two months when grandma was away, all the things that should be in our yard have been delivered. There are also grandma and the winter clothes that went to Zhuangzi with grandma. I have already got all of them. Put it away, and I will show it to grandma in a while. But it is silver frost charcoal..." As he spoke, he squinted at Qiutong.

The use of charcoal in this mansion has its own rules, the serious masters use silver frost charcoal, and the aunts and house maids use high-quality charcoal.But no matter how good the charcoal is, it still tastes better than the silver frost charcoal.Seeing Feng'er looking at Qiutong, what Wang Xifeng doesn't understand is that she must have cut off her carbon.

Wang Xifeng only looked at Qiutong coldly, waiting for her to give him an explanation.Qiutong deeply regretted that she didn't go back to her room just now, but at this moment she had to kneel down and said: "Because the second master has been resting with the servants, he was afraid of fuming the second master, so he boldly embezzled some. But it didn't work a few times, The rest will be moved back in a while."

Sister Feng said to Lai Sheng's family: "Go and see, someone in this house dared to move my things, and you will learn a lot from me. Then let Lai Sheng go to Xing'er, from the study room of Second Master Lian. , make up the things for me and send them in. Remember, don’t miss me, but don’t use more of Lian’s second master.”

Just then Jia Lian's voice sounded from outside: "Where did I provoke you, and I said such split words."
