Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Chapter 199 The slap hurts

At this moment, Yuanchun was sweeping the yard and had already swept to the back garden.

In spring, everything comes back to life, with few dead grass or branches. She just did a quick job of cleaning.

Hongdou sneaked over and saw that no one was around, so she hid in the corner behind the main hall and poked her head out, waving and calling her, "Ms. Jia! Ms. Jia!"

Yuanchun gave her a sidelong glance coldly.

She did not return until the afternoon yesterday, but her aunt had already left, leaving behind only two thousand five hundred taels of silver in her purse.

She sent a letter to her family asking for three thousand taels.

Her own parents knew very well that if she asked for three thousand taels, her mother would only give more and would never bargain.

So, this stupid girl in front of her who was seeking death swallowed up at least five hundred taels of silver from her.

Thinking of this, Yuanchun couldn't help but secretly blame her aunt Jia Min: she had repeatedly told her to stay and wait for her, but just because of a few words from Wang Xifeng, she didn't even dare to stay in the East Palace!

She could even easily entrust such an important thing as silver to a strange palace maid to pass on...

idiot!

Jia Yuanchun complained in her heart and walked over with a cold face:

"You are the one sent by your master to supervise me. It is not against the law for you to talk to me. Why are you being so sneaky?

"What do you want from me?"

Hongdou stamped her feet anxiously and whispered to her, "Your aunt, the Madam Jia from yesterday, divorced Master Lin when she returned home!"

"What!?" The veins on Jia Yuanchun's forehead were about to jump. "You are talking nonsense! My aunt and uncle are a loving couple..."

"It's because of you!" Hongdou glared at her, speaking harshly and viciously, "If you could behave yourself, your mother who couldn't enter the palace wouldn't force your aunt to pass things on.

"Although Wang Liang Di didn't make a fuss for the sake of Lord Lin, she still promised never to see Madam Jia again.

"Besides, I heard that Madam Jia kept Lord Lin a secret when she entered the palace twice. How can this couple be happy?

"With your Jia family interfering in the relationship, even the best couples can be separated by you!

"You're still surprised! Bah! How can you pretend to be innocent and kind? You don't deserve it!"

Jia Yuanchun broke out in a cold sweat!

It can be said that she, her mother, and the Wang family have offended Wang Xifeng a long time ago!

The fact that Wang Xifeng could still take care of her affairs, take her in, and even assign someone to "supervise" her was due to the face of Lin Ruhai and Jia Min.

Now Jia Min was able to divorce Lin Ruhai just because of this visit to the palace. It can be seen that her scheming and tactics were so bad that she couldn't even win over her own husband...

From now on, I am afraid that no one will be able to help me turn things around in front of Wang Xifeng...

This is really not good news!

Jia Yuanchun walked away while thinking and continued to sweep the floor with her head down.

Hongdou looked at her indifferent face and couldn't help but shudder!

Nowadays, no matter how big the family is, I have never heard of a woman who has been married for ten years being able to live a good life again after divorce!

She just ruined her own aunt's life, and she doesn't even feel the slightest bit of guilt or regret!

"What noble families? They are all beasts that eat human flesh and drink human blood!" Hongdou cursed quietly, then carefully observed her surroundings and shrank back.

In the evening, just before the palace closed, Jing Li brought Princess He Ke and Lin Daiyu back to the East Palace.

Wang Xifeng hurriedly hugged He Ke in her arms, then looked closely at Lin Daiyu and asked worriedly, "Are you okay, sister? Have you been wronged?"

Jing Li was standing nearby. He glanced at He Ke and took a half step back.

"It's more than just grievance! Jia almost pointed at Lady Zhai and said she had evil intentions! She also said that Sister Lin was unfilial and an ungrateful person!

"I think Lord Lin should not divorce her, but divorce her!" He Ke was so angry that his voice could be heard in the yard.

Wang Xifeng looked at Lin Daiyu's palm-sized face, which was immediately covered with blue and white tears. She slapped He Ke and said, "That's enough! You're just talking nonsense! You're covered in mud. Go take a bath!"

After sending her angry daughter away, Wang Xifeng pulled Lin Daiyu to her side and comforted her softly:

"Your mother didn't mean to humiliate you in front of others. She is your mother and you are her flesh and blood. She only cares for you and loves you, and would never intentionally harm you.

“It’s just that she’s caught between her husband’s family and her parents’ family, which is really difficult.

"Now that she is separated from your father, firstly, she will not be embarrassed, and secondly, she will not embarrass your father in the future. Thirdly,"

As Wang Xifeng spoke, she gently brushed the strands of hair by Lin Daiyu's ears and coaxed her in a low voice, "Your in-laws value fame and wealth over family members, and they can easily throw their eldest granddaughter into the palace to suffer.

“When you grow up, and become close to them because of your mother, there’s no guarantee that they won’t have evil intentions towards you.

"Now, Princess Yongning and Lady Zhai are witnesses that your mother's behavior is absurd, her words are full of nonsense, and she doesn't care about family affection and is mean to her daughter.

"In the future, if Rongguo Mansion interferes in your affairs under the banner of your mother, these two will come out to stop them first, and you won't have to argue with them anymore."

Lin Daiyu thought what she said made sense, and she immediately started to worry about her mother. She asked her tearfully, "Will my mother be bullied by them when she returns to Rong Mansion?"

"Since your mother can speak so arrogantly to Lady Zhai, she will certainly not lose to anyone in terms of eloquence.

"She didn't understand it before, but now that she is separated from your father, I think the attitude of the Rong family will change drastically. She will see it with her own eyes, and she will naturally understand. Then no one will be able to bully her.

"There is only one thing, mother and daughter are connected by heart. Even if she behaves in public as if she has a bad relationship with you and has little affection for you, I think the people who come to Rong Mansion will come to you and try to see if they can knock the wooden bell a few times.

"I can find an excuse to let you and He Ke hide in the palace for a few days.

“But you can’t hide forever.

"What are you going to do in the future? How can you deal with the Jia family?"

Wang Xifeng looked at her, leading her to think and find the answer herself.

To her surprise, Lin Daiyu was so smart that she said without any stuttering, "I won't deal with them. They can't even see me.

"From now on, I will either live with the princess in the princess's mansion, or wait for my father to pick me up before going home. In the morning, my father will also take me to the princess's mansion for class.

"It's just a matter of two more months.

"After the abdication ceremony, the princess will definitely return to the palace. By then, not to mention Princess Zhai, even I should stay in the palace to study with her.

"It takes at least seven or eight years to finish a book, right?

"When that time comes and I leave the palace, I don't believe they will have the nerve to come looking for me!"

Wang Xifeng laughed and hugged Lin Daiyu and put her hand on her forehead: "Our sister Lin is really smart!"

Lin Daiyu blushed.

He Ke peered in from outside the door jealously: "Mother."

"You're asking for trouble again! Who told you to run around with wet hair?! Hurry up and dry your hair! And your clothes! You're wearing such thin clothes, what's the point of just wrapping yourself in a cloak?!"

"Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong. I will go and wipe my hair and put on thick clothes...Mom, your slap hurts!"
