Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Chapter 134 Family Matters

Wang Xifeng was filled with worry: "After all, the princess is the eldest daughter of the crown prince, and her temper... is a little impatient. An'er, you go with her, don't let the princess treat my cousin badly."

Mrs. Xue nodded with tears in her eyes, and said, "The princess has a nanny and an aunt by her side, so she has nothing to be afraid of."

Then he winked at Baochai: "You are so generous, ah!"

The little girl said calmly, "Don't worry, mother. I, cousin Chenghui, will be back soon."

"Good! An'er has taken good care of Miss Xue!" Wang Xifeng watched them leave before ordering Ru'er, "Where are the snacks you prepared? Ask them to bring them up quickly."

Ruer understood and walked out, closing the door of the inner room.

Wang Xifeng immediately threw herself into Mrs. Xue's arms, biting her handkerchief and sobbing bitterly, "Aunt!"

"Sister, don't cry, don't cry, my heart is about to be broken by your crying!" Xue Wangshi cried along with her and whispered to her, "But have you been wronged? Who bullied you? Tell your aunt quickly, I will give you some advice!"

Giving advice is not making decisions.

My aunt's attitude and posture have always been so gentle, which makes people like her very much.

Wang Xifeng sobbed but refused to let go of Mrs. Xue. She just stayed in her arms, not wanting her to see her expression, and sobbed softly:

"The Crown Princess was targeting me... She forced the princess on me, and I took care of her child for three years..."

Xue Wangshi sighed and whispered back, "We have heard about this princess's identity a long time ago. The Crown Princess must hate her mother to the core, how could she be willing to educate her with all her heart?

"But as the eldest daughter, it seems that she will become a princess sooner or later...

“I can’t say whether it can be registered under your name, but at least I have the relationship of taking care of it for the past three years. If you maintain it well, it can also be a trump card of yours in the future.

"So, dear child, you must not get stuck in a rut. Do you hear me?"

Wang Xifeng agreed reluctantly and curled her lips secretly.

Mrs. Xue patted her on the shoulder and asked her to get up from her arms. She couldn't wait to whisper to her, "Even if Cheng Hui didn't look for me, I should have handed in the card!

"There's something going on at home. Let me talk to Cheng Hui!"

Haha, here it comes.

Wang Xifeng lowered her eyes, wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief, and sniffed: "What's the matter?"

Seeing her suddenly become cold, Xue Wangshi's heart skipped a beat, knowing that she was probably being reckless. She quickly changed the first thing she wanted to say in her mind and said with a smile: "Your father wrote to me and asked me to tell you three things."

Wang Xifeng's anger turned into joy, and she hurriedly pulled her hand, her eyes reddening again: "How is my father? Where is my mother? All my family letters for the past three years have been intercepted by the prince, and I have no idea what's going on outside."

Xue Wang's face changed drastically, and she felt her throat blocked for a moment before she managed to utter, "...your father, mother, brother and sister-in-law are all fine, all good!

"When your mother heard the news that you entered the Eastern Palace, she fell ill. Fortunately, not long after, a Beijing official from the Ministry of Works was transferred there. When he passed by Jinling, he visited your father. Your mother saw that his adopted daughter was quiet and delicate, so she adopted her as her daughter and raised her under her lap.

"Perhaps because they had something to do, your parents' spirits improved a lot. I heard that they had some free time the following year and even took their adopted daughter out for a trip.

“Your brother has been doing well these past two years.

"A few years ago when I was still in the south, I heard that he didn't like studying and had his eyes on the girl from the Zhen family. He kept trying to get your father to propose marriage for him, but he was beaten so hard that his legs were almost broken before he gave up.

"After adopting the little girl two years ago, your father suddenly wanted to have a grandson. It happened that the new county magistrate of the neighboring county, who was from Youzhou, brought his family over.

"When your parents took the little girl out to play, they met the county magistrate and became close friends. After a while, the two families became familiar with each other, so they let your brother marry the county magistrate's sister.

"Your new sister-in-law is very virtuous. She respects her parents-in-law, takes care of her younger sister-in-law, and supervises your brother closely.

"Your father wrote to me the other day, saying that your brother plans to take the examination to become a scholar next spring!"

Wang Xifeng's brows relaxed when she heard this, and a smile spread across her cheeks: "I'll prepare a gift for my new sister-in-law later! It just so happens that I should send New Year gifts back to Dad and his family tomorrow, so I can bring it along!"

The letter from home was intercepted, but the New Year’s gift can still be sent?

A little doubt popped up, but was temporarily suppressed by Mrs. Xue Wang. She had to hurry up and tell the things her family had told her: "These are the first two things your father asked me to tell you: you now have a younger sister and a sister-in-law.

"The third thing..."

Mrs. Xue Wang came closer and whispered, "Your father has prepared some people for you. He has been in the capital for a year!"

Wang Xifeng turned her wrist and grabbed Mrs. Xue's hand: "Who is it?!"

"He's smart and has some skills. Although he's not from our clan, he's a good fighter that your grandfather and your father used back then."

Xue Wang's voice became lower and lower, "Except for me, no one else in the capital knows about this.

"Your second uncle, eldest aunt, even your cousins, and your father wouldn't let me tell any of them.

"They only know that your father loves you so much that he gave you four shops in the capital as a dowry."

After a pause, Mrs. Xue Wang sighed and said in a louder voice, "It was your foolish brother who didn't know what was going on. He asked me to tell you that, except for these four shops, all the family businesses will belong to him in the future."

Wang Xifeng spat on the ground when she heard this: "Hurry up and take the exam to become a scholar! Dad and mom are fine, and my little sister is just a little girl, but he is already thinking about the family property! If dad knew, he would definitely break his legs!"

"Who says it's not true?" Mrs. Xue Wang shook her head. "In the past two years, he got married, studied, and wanted to have some fun. Your father beat him up a few times, and now he's much more obedient."

Wang Xifeng then lowered her voice and asked, "Did father tell me what to do with those people?"

"No." Xue Wang carefully observed the shadow reflected on the window, and suddenly stopped talking, looking nervous.

Wang Xifeng turned around and saw Wu Jin squatting on the windowsill outside the window, licking his paws and washing his face. His shadow moved back and forth, which was particularly cute. She couldn't help but smile: "That's the cat I raised. It understands human nature and only listens to me. Don't worry, aunt."

"That's good. You scared me." Mrs. Xue Wang patted her chest, smiled shyly, and then continued softly, "But after they came, it seems that all kinds of people have mixed in.

"I heard that I was coming here today. Last night, before I went to sleep, someone whispered to me at my back window that someone from the palace would contact me.

"That person said that Cheng Hui is doing well in the East Palace, and having more people would be superfluous. In Daming Palace, they have already prepared people for you, so you can work steadily."

Wang Xifeng opened her eyes wide: "In the palace?! In the Daming Palace?!"

Good guy!

Her father's methods are actually this powerful? !
