The Little Transparent Leisurely Life of the Red Mansion

Chapter 45

Jia Amnesty returned to his yard, wrote a note, put it in an envelope and sealed it, and sent his personal servant:

"Go to the Lin Mansion for my master. Remember, don't let the servants of the Jia family outside the Lin Mansion see it."

"Yes, sir, this letter is for..."

"It's for Lord Lin, he will know after reading it."

"If Master Lin is not at home..."

"Just give it to my aunt, that is, Mrs. Lin."

"The slave is going here."

Jia Amnesty looked at Brother Xing's back and thought: My sister should know what it means!He can't do anything by himself, and he can't help his sister, but it's okay to remind him.

I hope that when my sister comes back to see the old lady, nothing unpleasant will happen.

When Jia Lian went out, she wanted to go back to her room, but she always felt that it was not the case.Anyway, it was annoying and uncomfortable. After wandering around the yard for a while, he walked to his father's yard.

After thinking about it, I still stepped in. At this time, my father should be in the study.As soon as he turned his feet, he walked towards his father's study.

When Jia Lian arrived at the gate of the study, the guard at the gate saw him and greeted him quickly:

"Second Master Lian."

"Is father in there?"

"Go back to the second master, the master went over there and came back, and stayed in there all the time."

Jia Lian nodded and went into the courtyard. The door of the study was not closed. He saw the people inside at a glance, and quickly called out:

"Father."

Hearing Jia Lian calling him "Father", Jia Amnesty suddenly wondered if he should do something.He didn't remember how long it had been since he heard Lian'er call him father, and now he felt a little shy when he heard it.How long has it been since their father and son had a good conversation together?

In the past, it seemed that when they met, the quarrels were small, and they picked up things and beat people up a lot. Even if they didn't have those two things, the father and son had nothing to say.He would not take the initiative to find Lian'er, and Lian'er would not take the initiative to find his father who was very cruel to him.Even though they are father and son, they are also strangers.

His mouth moved, and he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything. He only choked out two words for a long time:

"coming."

Seeing his father's rare amiability, Jia Lian called out again:

"Father……"

Jia Amnesty sighed in his heart, their father-son relationship is probably the only one in this world!Seeing that Lian'er was about to speak but stopped, he said:

"You, ask whatever you want!"

Jia Lian asked cautiously and tentatively:

"Father, aunt, what's going on?"

Jia Amnesty said indifferently:

"What else could be going on? It must be that the old lady made the slave who picked up people dirty, which annoyed your aunt. Another thing, your uncle's house is in Beijing, and they can't live in Rongguo Mansion. Their house is no better than Our family is poor, and it is several times better than ours."

Jia Lian said in surprise:

"is it possible?"

"What do you think? Their family's century-old background is there. Their ancestors also conquered the princes. It's just that your uncle's hereditary algebra is full, and there are several generations of single inheritance. But uncle's fighting spirit has won Tanhua again. Their century-old family background , it’s not comparable to people like us who popped up out of nowhere.”

Seeing Lian'er thoughtful, he said:

"They are just low-key and unassuming, so that others can't see their wealth. Not every family is like ours. They are arrogant, extravagant and ostentatious when they are clearly in decline. It was okay when your grandfather was around. , can suppress it, after your grandfather left, your father and I have lived here, who do you think can suppress it?"

After hearing what his father said, Jia Lian had a lot of thoughts for a while, but he couldn't make sense of it.Then I heard my father say again:

"You don't work with the second roommate. Your father and I are incompetent, and he saved the family property for you. And your daughter-in-law was used by your second aunt as a gunman, and she is very grateful to your second aunt. That's stupid, typical of being sold and counting the money."

Jia Lian was a little unconvinced and said:

"Yes, that's also the housekeeper's right."

Seeing his son like this, Jia Amnesty twitched his mouth and said:

"Think about it first, what is your wife in charge of?"

"The monthly bills and expenses in the housekeeper will issue monthly silver to everyone..."

"Okay, let's talk about Yueyin. You asked your wife how did Yueyin get there?"

"Last time, Second Aunt said that there was no money in the house for the time being..." Jia Lian said this, and suddenly remembered that Feng'er used her dowry silver to distribute to everyone.Later, the second aunt didn't seem to give Feng'er any silver taels.

Thinking about it this way, he believed that what his father said was true.

But even so, he couldn't persuade Feng'er not to listen to Second Aunt's arrangement.He really can't do anything about her aggressive temper.

The same goes for my father, who could see everything clearly, but did nothing.Every time the old lady says what she says, even if she wants to insist, as long as the old lady cries about her father's unfilial piety, the father will definitely compromise.

Jia Amnesty looked at his son who seemed to be petrified, patted his shoulder and said:

"Go back!"

After finishing speaking, no matter what Jia Lian thought, he just picked up a book of strange stories and read it...

Jia Lian saw that his father would no longer pay attention to his appearance, and left with his mind in a mess and his back feeling cold.

Feng'er had only assisted the housekeeper for more than a month, and she filled in a lot of dowry silver by herself.Because it was filled with her own money, she withheld some things, and was immediately gossiped by the servants.She is such a face-saving person, if this continues, the dowry will probably not be enough to spend.

Even, even Ping'er, said it in front of her... Fortunately, Feng'er trusted her so much and tried her best to speak good things.

I don't know if it's because of what his father said. Why does he feel that there is no one in his yard who he can trust?That is, the nanny once persuaded him, and the nanny brother.

It's just that their mother and son have already been invited away. At that time, it seemed that Second Aunt said something, and then Feng'er said something when she came back.In a fit of anger, he drove people away.

Jia Lian, whose brain is getting bigger and bigger and thinking more and more, is not stupid. Unknowingly, conspiracy theories appear in his mind and linger.

Back in her own yard, seeing Wang Xifeng sitting in the room with an unhappy face, Ping'er kept persuading her.

Even though he couldn't understand what Ping'er was trying to persuade, his persuasion turned into fanning the flames as soon as he turned his mind.Feng'er is Lishuang, but she doesn't lose her temper often, but sometimes, Ping'er whispers something in her ear, which can really make Feng'er furious.

Jia Lian walked in, didn't see her angry like before, so she immediately comforted her, just found a place to sit and watch their master and servant from a distance, without saying anything.

Wang Xifeng was a little annoyed when she was waiting for Jia Lian. She didn't expect that when she was looking for Jia Lian, she couldn't find anyone.After being asked around, I found out that he actually went to the Grand Master!Going to find his father who spends all day with women, does he also want to buy women?

Just thinking about it, Wang Xifeng felt uncomfortable, but after seeing Jia Lian came back, she still didn't say a word, didn't even say hello to her, just sat on the side and stared at her blankly.In Wang Xifeng's heart, he, Jia Lian, should always please her, but now he is ignoring him?

For the sake of face, she endured the unhappiness in her heart, and turned to Ping'er in a cold voice:

"Ping'er, take them farther away."

Ping'er looked worried, as if he wanted to persuade, but he didn't speak, he took the other maids and mother-in-law out of the room in embarrassment, and stopped when he walked far away.

Wang Xifeng yelled at Jia Lian when he saw the person walking away:

"Jia Lian, hurry up and tell me what you were doing just now?"

Jia Lian looked at Wang Xifeng who was inexplicably angry. Whose wife would talk to her husband like this?I think should not be?In ordinary people, don't women always stay in the backyard?Who would want to yell at his husband-in-law like his wife?

He just looked at Wang Xifeng coldly for a while, until Wang Xifeng became less angry, and then said:

"Where did you go to get angry and come back and tell me?"

Wang Xifeng didn't know why, she felt a little uneasy when she looked at Jia Lian's unabashed gaze, but she still whispered unwillingly:

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and tell me what are you going to do?"

With this roar, Jia Lian suddenly realized: So, the person I like treats me like this!As expected of the helper Second Aunt found.To the people in the first room, he was snarky, and to the people in the second room, he tried his best to be obedient.My husband, but he is like a venting bag, taking all anger on him.

He replied to her lightly:

"You, what do you want me to do?"

Jia Lian's attitude was far from usual, just such a light sentence instantly ignited the flame that had just been suppressed in Wang Xifeng's body.Panting heavily, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Just tell me what you did."

Jia Lian didn't know who said what in Wang Xifeng's ear, so she kept asking.This scene further confirmed his guess.But he didn't want to quarrel with anyone, let alone continue to entangle, so he said:

"I'm going to find my father. Why, should I go to my father and report to you? You really think you are someone!"

Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lian's unchanging expression, she was suddenly speechless.Usually, she dared to yell like this because Jia Lian let her go. Now Jia Lian's attitude suddenly changed, and her heart was not so calm and peaceful.

Seeing that Wang Xifeng was silent, if it was normal, she might have thrown something by now!Jia Lian had some strange guesses:

"What did you fill in today, so angry?"

As soon as Jia Lian asked, she turned Wang Xifeng's head over, and suddenly said anxiously:

"Today, I asked my aunt for the silver that I filled in last time, but my aunt refused to admit it. She said that there was no such thing at all. I wanted to talk to you, but I couldn't find you, so..."

"That good aunt of yours expects you to share all your dowry with everyone! You are the only one who believes that she is really doing it for your own good."

"impossible……"

"Impossible? Didn't you just ask her about Yueyin today? Didn't she just shirk that time? Tell me first, besides not returning the silver to you, does she have any suggestions for you?"

"Yes, yes, last time I asked her for money, she asked me to go loan sharks with her. I said I would consider, consider, but I didn't agree."

"Giving usury? That's the business of cutting off children and grandchildren, but she wants you to do it. Why do you think she asked you to do it?"

"No, can't you? When my aunt said that, it doesn't mean that she also has it...Then, will Brother Zhu..."

The more Wang Xifeng talked, the more frightened she became, and when she thought that she and Jia Lian had consummated their marriage for two years, and they still didn't have a son and a half, this, this aunt was really calculating.

After a while of communication, the hearts of the husband and wife were getting closer and closer, and they discussed together to push away the housekeeper, take good care of their health, and have a child as soon as possible, so that they can be angry with this good aunt who is kind and evil (good second aunt) ).

Although Wang Xifeng was still unwilling, now that the mansion is full of people from the second house, they can't do much.
