Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

In the evening, news came from the main courtyard: the old lady seemed to be getting better and was able to sit up and eat porridge.

An'er was washing Wang Xifeng's underwear. When she heard the news, she lowered her head and bit her lip. She exerted force with her hands, and with a "swish", a bright red bellyband with flowers was torn to pieces.

Wang Xifeng was teasing a parrot under the window. She saw it but said nothing.

At dusk, the shrike flew over and stood outside the window, chirping. The parrot, with its feathers standing on end, also shouted at it.

Wang Xifeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She ran over and slapped the parrot herself: "It's not coming in, and you're scaring it through the window!"

Aunt Meng and Ruer both laughed, and An'er was finally amused enough to smile.

At the end of the night watch, someone suddenly came to the main courtyard and asked Wang Xifeng to come over: "The old lady has packed out two more things. I'm not sure if they belong to the eldest lady. Please go and take a look, young lady."

Wang Xifeng curled her lips and called An'er: "Come on, follow your lady."

When they arrived at the main courtyard, she was not allowed to enter and was only asked to "wait a moment" outside the door, saying that Old Madam Wang was cleaning.

This is the most sufficient reason and cannot be disputed.

Wang Xifeng calmly took An'er and waited outside.

Half an hour later, Wang Xifeng signaled An'er: "Go and ask."

An'er knocked gently on the door, and after just one knock, the maid inside rushed out and pushed her down the stairs, scolding her:

"You are so blind! Can't you see that the lights are off inside? The old lady has already taken the medicine and gone to sleep!

"If you wake her up, her illness will get worse. Can you afford it?"

How could the master and servant not hear this kind of indirect criticism? !

An'er was so angry that his face turned pale!

Wang Xifeng took half a step forward and helped her up with her own hands. Without saying anything, she took two steps up the stairs, raised her hand, and slapped the girl in the face, causing her to stagger!

Then, Wang Xifeng gave the girl a cold look and pushed the door open.

An'er suppressed the smile on his face and hurriedly followed.

The girl wanted to step forward to stop him, but An'er looked her straight in the face and pushed her hard with both hands. She also fell down the stairs at the same position and angle!

An'er also spoke up, cursing, "You blind, traitorous little bitch! You knew the old lady had gone to bed, yet you were still making such a noise at the door! What on earth are you thinking?!

"Believe it or not, I will report to the Second Master immediately and beat you to death, you little bitch who bullies the master by relying on the power of others!?"

In terms of how to treat Wang Xifeng, Old Lady Wang and Wang Ziteng have completely different attitudes, and everyone in the main courtyard knows this.

So as An'er said, if Wang Ziteng knew that she took the opportunity to torment Wang Xifeng and her servant, it is hard to say whether he would use her to appease Wang Xifeng's anger - for example, by smashing her mouth, or, like Ping'er, by giving her twenty boards.

The little girl didn't dare to talk back. She lowered her head and fell to the ground, covering her face and crying.

Wang Xifeng went straight in, entered the inner room from the outer room in one breath, and stood in front of Old Lady Wang's bed.

The maids and wives were so frightened that they stood far away against the wall, not daring to get involved in the fight between the grandfather and grandson.

When Wang Xifeng looked, she saw that Old Lady Wang was already lying flat on her back, pretending to be asleep very well.

This is great!

Wang Xifeng didn't go over, but waved to a daughter-in-law who was as silent as a cicada and asked her in a low voice: "When did grandma fall asleep?"

The daughter-in-law hunched her shoulders and whispered back, "About half an hour ago."

"Oh?" Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows and asked, "I was called to the main courtyard just now and was told that there were two things. The old lady didn't know if they were my mother's dowry, so she asked me to come and identify them.

"What? This person wasn't sent by my grandmother? He's a stranger who broke in without permission?

“That won’t do!

"I have to quickly tell my second uncle to replace all the people guarding the gates inside and outside!

"It's fine if you're just teasing me today, but if the personal belongings of Grandmother, Second Aunt, or even Sister Luan leak out tomorrow, then all the women in our Wang family will have no choice but to jump into the sea together!"

The daughter-in-law was so frightened that she was trembling all over. She quickly turned around to look at Old Lady Wang. Seeing her fingers wagging slightly, she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:

“That’s what happened!

"But why is it necessary for a grown-up girl to wait outside like this?

"The things are in the ear room. You don't have to go there in person. Just let Miss An'er follow me to identify them!"

Wang Xifeng didn't get angry, but said "oh" to indicate that she understood.

An'er followed the daughter-in-law and came back after a dozen breaths. He reported in a low voice: "Miss, this is the kang screen that my wife gave to the old lady to celebrate her birthday, and also the jade carvings of the two immortals of harmony and unity that she gave as a gift during the New Year."

"This is my mother's filial piety, but my grandmother doesn't even remember it and doesn't want it anymore. This is really interesting."

Wang Xifeng was annoyed in her heart, but she smiled warmly on her face. She pointed at the daughter-in-law and said, "You're the one. Go and pack up those two things. You can hold them later. Come with me."

He waved his hand again, ordering all the servants to leave. "The old lady is ill. There are so many of you around, and the breath smells all over. It's making the old lady sleep poorly.

"Get out, get out! Everyone, get out!

"I'm here to sit with my grandmother for a while. I won't leave until the smell in this room becomes lighter!"

Old Madam Wang lay straight, unable to move.

Everyone had no choice but to file out.

An'er followed behind them, and when they all went out, she stood at the door, opened and closed her hands, and closed the door with a "pop".

Wang Xifeng withdrew her gaze from the closed door, put on the brightest smile, and slowly walked to the head of Old Lady Wang's bed.

"Grandma... this time, it's just the two of us left...

"I'm going to say a few words to you. Please listen. If you want to wake up, then wake up. If you don't dare to wake up, then just go back to sleep!

"You asked me to go to the ancestral temple to plot against me. Even Sister Luan could see through this, let alone me. How could I not be prepared?

“To be honest, the affair between the abbot of the family temple and the nun from outside was discovered by my people.

"That night, I was the one who tricked the nun into going on a tryst, and I also had the thief lead Wang Yi to catch the adulterer.

"I also asked that little thief to keep the evidence that my grandmother bribed him to destroy my reputation. My future wealth and glory depend on that!"

Old Madam Wang's hands were still at her sides, but she had already begun pressing down on the bed with force!

“I didn’t expect the prince to show up.

"However, he was able to do everything as I wished, which is what makes me happiest.

“Now, the monks and nuns are all in Jingzhao Prefecture.

"I am sure that once I enter the palace, the monks and nuns will commit suicide in prison, and the little thief will escape from jail."

When Wang Xifeng said this, she turned around and looked at An'er.

An'er's face was hidden under the candlelight. Apart from the remaining shock in his eyes, there was also a calmness of extreme anger, without any fear at all!

Good girl, it turns out that my vision is good enough!

Wang Xifeng looked at Old Lady Wang again with satisfaction, who was almost unable to maintain her position on the bed:

"As for the fact that you asked Aunt Chun and her daughter-in-law to kidnap me and take me back to Jiangnan, I also guessed it.

"My good maid Ping'er, who grew up with me, and I have already agreed that if you refuse to let me go, she will find a reason to get beaten and then hide away.

"In this way, we can switch the master and servant together, and she can take my handwritten letter back to Jinling to tell my parents how you treated me.

"And I will stay here to let my second uncle see clearly how reckless his mother is; and also let my grandmother see clearly how I will marry into the Eastern Palace in a grand manner!"
