Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Chapter 170 Today is Different

Jia Min and Xue Wangshi were delighted by this statement, but Jia Wangshi felt bitter and worried from the bottom of her heart.

"Now, mother can finally rest assured." Jia Min breathed a sigh of relief, tears in her eyes.

Mrs. Xue patted her comfortingly, then looked at Mrs. Jia and said kindly, "My niece has Lady Liangdi to help her, so even if she suffers, it will be limited. Sister can rest assured."

Peace of mind?

How to feel at ease?

With the combined money of the Jia, Wang and Shi families, they finally made Yuanchun the Queen's favorite, but she ended up like this!

Only two days had passed since the incident, and there was no member of the royal family to be seen at the Wang family's New Year banquet.

What happens next?

When Yuanchun really goes to the Eastern Palace to be punished and clean the house, won't this matter spread all over the capital?

Her proudest eldest daughter, the most outstanding girl in Rongguo Mansion, her future was over from then on!

Do I have to be grateful?

Jia Wang was overwhelmed with grief, she covered her face with a handkerchief and burst into tears!

"Now is the New Year, and this is the East Palace. If Mrs. Wang wants to cry, it is better for her to go home and cry, so that the Crown Princess won't hear about it and think you are unlucky!" Aunt Meng said with a stern face and a cold voice, without saying a single good word.

Wang Xifeng glanced at her, sighed, and pointed outside: "Aunt, go check on He Ke for me. The four children are really making a fuss, and Nanny Ji has a soft temper. I'm afraid she won't be able to scare them off."

Aunt Meng was extremely dissatisfied and her face was ugly, but she finally reluctantly knelt down and said, "Yes."

"She is also a deity whom I cannot afford to offend." Wang Xifeng glanced at Aunt Meng's back and muttered, then she scolded An'er who was standing blankly on the side, "Are you blind? Why don't you go and serve tea and hot water?"

An'er seemed to have just woken up from a dream, and he lowered his head and walked out.

Ruer was originally standing next to An'er, and now she followed him away without saying a word.

There were only four people left in the pavilion, including Wang Xifeng.

"Aunt, go back and persuade the men of the Jia family to calm down! Things are different now." Wang Xifeng lowered her voice and spoke earnestly.

Jia Wangshi had already stopped crying when Aunt Meng started crying, and was about to continue crying when she heard this sentence and couldn't help getting annoyed: "How is it different?

“The Jia family is a century-old family in Jiangnan. Even though we four families can’t call the shots, we are still unshakable.

“It is true that we are not as prosperous and wealthy as before, but after all, we are still descendants of a duke and enjoy wealth and splendor.

"It's just sending a daughter to the palace! Who wouldn't do that?

"The Zhen family now has only one concubine, so let's not talk about it. In the early years, the four princes gave three daughters, and the six dukes gave seven girls. It's just that time has passed and the people are gone!

"Why is it that when our family also selects someone to enter the palace, it becomes a commotion and we are not satisfied?"

Wang Xifeng stared at her chattering aunt and suddenly felt that after not seeing her for three years, this noble lady had become very old.

There are a few more strands of silver hair on the temples, and wrinkles are obvious at the corners of the eyes and lips. The originally majestic phoenix eyes now have drooping eyelids, becoming the most mean triangular eyes.

Perhaps, she was not deliberately distorting it, but she really could not understand the slightly obscure information.

Jia Min looked at Wang Xifeng's changing expression and gently pulled Jia Wang's sleeve: "Second sister-in-law, listen to what Lady Liangdi has to say."

what?

She hasn't finished yet?

Jia Wangshi suddenly stopped talking, with a guilty look on her face.

In Rongguo Mansion, except for the old lady, where she needed to be discreet, she was accustomed to interrupting, interrupting, and quoting out of context what other people said.

Before entering the palace, Wang Xifeng was someone she used to treat in the same way, but later on, she suddenly became unyielding and that became very boring.

Why was I suddenly so excited that I forgot this?

While reflecting on herself, Jia Wangshi hurriedly stopped talking and apologized awkwardly: "I was confused for a moment... Liang Di, please continue."

"Originally, I should have just said this." Wang Xifeng's gaze moved from the confused Jia Wangshi to the ignorant Xue Wangshi, and finally fell on Jia Min's thoughtful face.

What a sigh.

The mistresses of these three families are so slow in dealing with such an important matter.

"Since you all don't understand, I will add one more sentence. Years ago, the prince had already been regent." Wang Xifeng finished her words and refused to say anything more. Without even giving the three people time to react, she raised her voice and said to the outside:

"An'er, where are the people?!"

An Er agreed outside, and then he angrily said to the palace servants:

"Where did all of them go to dig sand?

"Looking at the master entertaining relatives today, I feel embarrassed to quarrel with you, right?

"Why don't you all come back and serve me?!

"Day by day, there is no hierarchy, just drifting away with the wind, forgetting who you are!

"Sooner or later, you deserve this fate!"

He was making indirect accusations.

The Jia and Wang clans all had embarrassed expressions on their faces.

Wang Xifeng pretended to have a headache and held her forehead: "This girl followed the maid who was sent from the Daming Palace as an apprentice, but she didn't learn anything good. She only learned how to bully others by taking advantage of her power!"

At that moment, An'er came in respectfully with his people. He helped Jia Wangshi and Jia Min, who had just cried, to wash their faces, helped Xue Wangshi to wash her hands, arranged the tables and chairs to prepare lunch, and diligently served Wang Xifeng tea to moisten her throat.

The work and attitude are impeccable.

Jia, Wang and the other two felt as if their breath was stuck in their throat.

On the other side, the four children in the warm room picked and chose, and finally got together and started playing shuttlecock.

Jia Baoyu wanted to join in the fun for He Ke, and he was a naughty boy after all, so he learned it quickly and started playing one-on-one with He Ke.

How could Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai have ever played this?! I was dumbfounded and suddenly felt like comparing myself with the other person.

Both of them gritted their teeth, tucked in their skirts, and one by one, bent their knees and raised their heels on the floor of the hall, trying hard to kick the shuttlecock.

He Ke and Bao Yu were both sweating from playing. They turned around and saw the postures of these two people, and they burst into laughter together.

Lin Daiyu's eyes immediately turned red, and she said angrily, "We don't know how to do it. How can it not be ugly when we just start to learn it? If the princess can even make fun of this, why should we learn it?

"Anyway, I don't play tricks like this at home. My mother, my aunt, and my grandmother don't play such games either!

"My Lord, now that you have someone to play with, please forgive me for my stupidity. I won't play anymore!"

Xue Baochai wiped her sweat calmly and took a step back: "I caught a cold a few days ago and my legs are a little weak. Please forgive me, Princess. I can't accompany you anymore."

When He Ke saw that Lin Daiyu was really angry, he was startled, and hurried forward to pull her to apologize, and also apologized to Baochai: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have laughed at you."

Jia Baoyu also came up with a grin and bowed, "Sister Bao, Sister Lin, it's all my fault. If I can't learn it, then the princess will have to try something else!

"Just be angry with me, but don't be angry with the princess!"
