It is not wrong to say that Jia Baoyu is the precious stone egg of the Jia family.

He was clearly just the second son of the second wife, but everyone in the Jia family treated him like the heir to the Duke's Mansion, and even Jia Lian had to keep his distance.

Jia Lian was very angry about this, but who cared?

Jia She, the eldest son of Jia Daishan and Jia Mu, is a greedy, lustful, and foolish man. He has no talent and no character, and is not liked by Jia Mu.

In the words of later generations, Jia She was an extreme egoist.

My father cannot be relied upon, but Jia Lian is an extremely shrewd man. He later married Wang Xifeng, the niece of Lady Wang, and is now in the prime of his life.

Grandmother Jia sighed, and a layer of worry instantly covered her kind face. Wang Xifeng was such a delicate person that she hurried forward and asked, "What's wrong with the old ancestor? Are you tired of my burnt papers?"

After that, she sighed, "In this case, I'd better be tactful and leave, so as not to upset the old ancestor."

Although her expression was a little exaggerated, it didn't look funny because she had a pretty face.

Grandmother Jia laughed and scolded her: "You rascal, you only know how to say these words to tease me."

Everyone in the room burst into laughter.

Wang Xifeng also laughed, and asked innocently, "Why is the old ancestor sad?"

Grandmother Jia stopped smiling, sighed, and said, "It's all because of your cruel aunt..."

The person being talked about here is Jia Min. Everyone in the room is very thoughtful and they all know that the old lady is missing her daughter, so they all try to comfort her, but they cannot make Grandmother Jia happy.

Wang Xifeng thought for a moment and asked, "When I was at home, I heard that Aunt Min was both talented and beautiful, but unfortunately I never had the chance to see her. If I have the chance, I will definitely go and see her to broaden my horizons."

Grandmother Jia only gave birth to one daughter, Jia Min, in her life. She was raised like a pearl and jade, and she was her pride.

If someone else was praised, Grandmother Jia might not be happy, but when it comes to praising Jia Min, she has a lot to say.

"That's right." Grandmother Jia was not modest at all. "When your aunt Min was a girl at home, the Duke praised her for being a boy, and there would be no other sons."

Mrs. Wang secretly clenched her handkerchief, but her face remained as compassionate as ever.

Wang Xifeng sighed heavily and said regretfully, "If I were a man and was born a few years earlier, I would marry Aunt Min home even if I had to go through fire and water, and let the old ancestor see Aunt Min every day."

Everyone in the room burst into laughter.

"It's really this Feng girl, her mouth is more powerful than anyone else's."

"If you were a man, our ancestors would be reluctant to marry their precious daughter to you."

For a moment, the sad atmosphere disappeared. Grandmother Jia hugged Wang Xifeng and laughed and scolded her. She really didn't know what to do with her.

Wang Xifeng is the daughter-in-law of the first wife and the niece of the second wife. She is usually caught between her stepmother-in-law and her aunt Lady Wang, and cannot offend either side.

But she knew that the most important person in the Rongguo Mansion today was still the old lady. As long as she could please the old lady, her position would be secure.

Grandmother Jia also liked her granddaughter-in-law very much and would call her to her side to talk from time to time.

In fact, people are just afraid of loneliness when they get old, and Wang Xifeng is a smart person, so she can help to relieve boredom by adding some fun to the side.

only......

Grandmother Jia looked down at Wang Xifeng, who was lying on her knees, and said, "I remember Lian'er is going to Yangzhou in a few days."

"Yes, we will leave in half a month." Wang Xifeng understood the meaning of the song, "Does the old ancestor want him to bring something to Aunt Min?"

I have to say, talking to smart people is worry-free.

Grandmother Jia said: "Feng girl is still smart."

Wang Xifeng smiled brightly and generously, "What a coincidence! Yesterday I told Second Master to bring some gifts to Aunt Min's cousins. I appreciate all the love from my cousin's wife."

Grandmother Jia was even happier. "Thank goodness you have such a thought. I have a headdress that I think would be perfect for you. I'll ask Yuanyang to bring it to you later."

Grandmother Jia was happy, Wang Xifeng was happy, but some people were not very happy.

Jia She's concubine, Xing, had a hot temper that could not be suppressed. Upon seeing this, she immediately showed her thoughts on her face. Although she didn't say anything, who couldn't see it?

Mrs. Wang was laughing in her heart. Although she, like Xing, couldn't stand the fact that Lady Jia was always thinking about Jia Min, as if she, Jia Min, was the best woman in the world, no matter how stupid she was, she would not reveal everything like Xing.

Grandmother Jia snorted in her heart and didn't want to bother with those people with different thoughts. She would give her things to whoever she wanted, and it was not the turn of the youngster to complain here.

When Jia Min got married, the Rongguo Mansion was at its peak and her dowry was extremely rich. Even Lady Wang, who was from the Wang family, was jealous and complained about her dowry in private.

Obviously those things should have remained in the Jia Mansion and belonged to her son in the future, but the biased Grandmother Jia gave them as a dowry to Jia Min, the person she disliked the most.

How abominable!

To explain why Mrs. Wang hated Jia Min so much, we have to start from when they were not married.

As one of the four major families, the Wang family only required their daughters to learn a few words and not be blind. However, Jia Min was able to receive the same education as a son.

Comparing the two, Mrs. Wang seems even more contemptuous and ignorant.

Every time the two of them attended a banquet together, Jia Min always received a lot of praise.

When it came to Mrs. Wang, the only thing left was the word "OK".

Mrs. Wang's heart felt like it was broken. She was madly jealous of Jia Min, but she didn't dare show it.

After marrying Jia Zheng, she thought she could finally act like a sister-in-law and control Jia Min. However, who would have thought that Grandmother Jia was so protective of her child that every time she showed any sign of doing so, she would be severely suppressed by Grandmother Jia.

Mrs. Wang lamented the unfairness of fate, but there was nothing she could do.

After she gave birth to several children in a row, Jia Min still had only one daughter. Mrs. Wang was secretly happy in her bed at night, but later...

Later, her daughter Zhu'er left her, and later Jia Min also gave birth to a son.

Mrs. Wang’s only remaining advantage was gone.

Wang Xifeng returned with Jia's mother's order and happened to meet Jia Lian on his way home.

Jia Lian pointed to several boxes behind her. Each of them was made of fine wood and looked very old. "What's in them?"

He had just returned home and was washing his hands after taking off his coat. Wang Xifeng sat down and fanned him a few times, saying, "The ancestor asked you to bring something to Aunt Min."

"Oh." Jia Lian lost interest and sat on the other side.

Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows, "Look at the expression on Second Master's face, are you a little disappointed?"

Jia Lian was naturally disappointed, but he didn't say anything. He just smiled, looking very romantic and suave.

He had a good appearance and had many romantic affairs. Wang Xifeng knew it very well, but she didn't want to argue with Jia Lian until the right time.

She only said: "When you arrive in Yangzhou City, it is important to do your job well. Second Master, don't be dazzled by the beautiful scenery and forget where home is."

The two had been married for a short time and were still a sweet couple. Jia Lian still liked Wang Xifeng's ways and did not feel unhappy about being controlled. Instead, he joked with her to make her laugh.
