The son of the red mansion is unscrupulous

Chapter 59 childhood sweethearts

Wang Ren walked around and invited Wang Zisheng to follow him to Wang Ziteng's study to talk.

Still in Wang Ziteng's inner study, there was a small table facing the Xuan curtain, and there were dozens of plates full of dishes on the table.

Brothers Wang Ziteng and Wang Zisheng at the table sat facing the window and watched a pair of white-headed birds stealing the grapes hanging on the emerald green shelf outside the window.

Wang Ren stood aside and poured wine for the two brothers, and said: "Second uncle, third uncle, the Jia family is too deceitful. The marriage that was agreed before is not given to our Wang family. Now it seems that we are making trouble. It’s like a hot face is against their cold butt.” Seeing that Wang Ziteng only ate wine and didn’t speak, he gave Wang Zisheng a wink.

Wang Zisheng held the fine porcelain wine cup, took a sip of the wine, put the wine cup back on the small table heavily, and said with a sneer, "Brother, this time's matter can't just leave it like this! People are corrupted, and besides, everyone in the family knows that Feng girl will be the daughter-in-law of Jia's grandson eight or nine times. Whose house can he enter? According to me, Brother Lian got millions of silver from Lai Da's family, so he doesn't pay attention to our family."

A few million words are worth a thousand words, Wang Ziteng hesitated for a while, nodded his head, but just rushed to Jia's family as Wang Ren said, if the trouble is not good, the two families will turn their heads completely—— ——Although there is nothing to be afraid of in the Rongguo Mansion today, only young people are in charge of the family, but after so many years, it is impossible to end it easily. After careful consideration, he said: "Go to your aunt and get your aunt's letter, and immediately I went to invite Brother Zhen from the Ningguo Mansion to talk." This kind of thing will inevitably be a disadvantage to the woman's family, and it is necessary to go once, which forces the Jia family to agree.

Wang Renli agreed, and immediately sent a servant to invite Jia Zhen, and then went to Mrs. Wang Ziteng to bring all the family letters that Mrs. Wang had sent in the past, and they went to get the letters by the wine table, and Jia Lian was unavoidably embellished. Why don't you put him in your eyes and talk about it in detail, with a sullen face on your face, and sneer: "Uncle, as far as I see, Brother Lian doesn't put our Wang family in his eyes, and he is just trying to curry favor with you." What about the Xu family?"

"There is such a thing!" Although Wang Zisheng was guilty of the Eighteenth Anti-Rebellion incident in Jinling and flattered Jia She and Jia Lian, but now that he is backed by Wang Ziteng when he returns to Beijing, he has nothing to fear. Di said again: "Seeing Brother Lian not showing face to Brother Ren that day because of something he bought from outside, I knew he was ungrateful and ungrateful."

Wang Ren took out several letters from Mrs. Wang, and brought them to Wang Ziteng for him to read.

Wang Ziteng glanced at it, saw that the letter was just mentioning how Jia's mother liked Wang Xifeng, and the straightforward and generous words meant to keep her as a granddaughter-in-law. He nodded slightly and said to Wang Ren: "First, I sent two letters to your aunt. Tell her to see what letters she sent to the Wang family earlier. Tell her, we will go to Jia's to talk to the old lady when we turn back, and tell her to persuade their old lady, okay, this is whether the two families can still be relatives thing."

Even if Mrs. Wang is afraid of Jia Lian, she is afraid that the letters handed down to the Wang family in the past will be displayed in front of the Jia family, and she will follow the wishes of the Wang family to facilitate this matter; , how could she not agree?

Wang Ren hurriedly sent someone to deliver letters to Mrs. Wang, opened several letters one after another, and asked Wang Ziteng to pick out some suitable ones and keep them as evidence, and asked the little girl to return the rest to Mrs. Wang Ziteng.

After drinking for three rounds, Jia Zhen, who was dressed in filial piety, was invited.

Jia Zhen first called Wang Ziteng and Wang Ziteng as uncles, and after taking her seat, she heard the Wang family mention Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng's marriage, and immediately said to please the Wang family brothers: "You two uncles, this matter will definitely be done. Think about it, the old lady is For the second room, she also likes Feng girl, how could she not agree to this matter? The old lady was stolen by brother Lian earlier to go to a lot of private houses, and because of brother Lian's trouble, she refused to take advantage of his marriage. What's more, what is the friendship between the four families of Jia Shixue and Wang? The two uncles visited the door with great enthusiasm. The old lady was afraid that she would cut off her relationship with the Wang family. Don't listen to the two uncles. Even if Brother Lian refuses to agree, can he win over the old lady? He has to bow his head and agree. If he takes ten thousand steps back, if he meets the two uncles, Brother Lian will still be so stubborn and refuse. Bow your head, and the two uncles will tell Brother Ren to make trouble at the Xu family's gate. The Jia family can afford to lose someone, but the Xu family can't afford to lose them either. When the time comes, the Xu family will naturally..."

"It's absolutely impossible, it will also ruin the reputation of our girls." The prince said hurriedly.

Jia Zhen repeatedly said yes, and said with a low smile: "Uncle was worried too much, and now he sent someone to Xu's house with a sharp mouth, and let the old lady agree on the marriage of Brother Lian a few years ago. Scared the Xu family He said that if the Xu family didn't leave first, they would go to the Yamen, first sue the Jia family for treachery, and then sue the Xu family for seizing the son-in-law. The Xu family was afraid of losing face, and they had nothing to do with the Jia family, so naturally they refused to enter this muddy water .”

"In this way, Brother Lian will have to spend money to eliminate the disaster." Wang Ren wished to have a brother-in-law with a lot of money, but he thought Jia Zhen's idea was a good one, so he would make a big fuss, and see if the Xu family dared not retreat.

Wang Ziteng murmured again and again, and felt that this method was very good. The Xu family would not be ashamed and angry when they saw that their family was deceived and made a marriage by mistake. At that time, they would have to respect and stay away from Jia Lian. Go back to Jia Shixue Wangsi's house obediently, so, given him a hundred guts, he would not dare to deny his marriage with Wang Xifeng, so he said to Wang Ren: "Immediately ask your aunt to send a quick-spoken daughter-in-law to you." Go to the Xu family and ask the daughter-in-law to tell the Xu family about the marriage between the Jia family and the Wang family first from the mouth of the old lady of the Jia family. If the Xu family refuses to withdraw, we can only see each other in court. There is no such thing in the world. Once you have one family, and if you see something good, then make another family."

"Hey." Wang Ren happily agreed, and immediately went to tell Mrs. Wang Ziteng. After hearing this, Mrs. Wang Ziteng sent another daughter-in-law, Wang's daughter-in-law, who was originally reserved as Wang Xifeng's companion, to bring two more. The mother-in-law went to Xu's family to explain the marriage between Jia and Wang.

Wang's daughter-in-law already knew that her family was going to marry Wang Xifeng, but she heard some gossip recently, and felt that Mrs. Xing, the head of Jia's family, was ill, and Wang Xifeng was going to host the wedding ceremony when she entered the house. If Wang Xifeng did not enter Jia's house, but entered someone else's house, and there were wives' companions in charge of the affairs of the house, how could it be their turn to stand out.So he quietly went to see Wang Xifeng, secretly listened to Wang Xifeng's confession, and then drove all the way to Xu's house.

After declaring their family name, the Xu family took three of Wang's daughters-in-law to see Yuan Shi, the wife of the governor of Jiangsu.

The daughter-in-law of Wang was thinking about how she should first salute after meeting Yuan, and when she arrived at the door, she suddenly heard a bang in the room, followed by "Excuse my son for being unfilial, it's just that our brothers and sisters have been joking around since we were young, and we really can't." ..." Seeing the leading daughter-in-law stretch out her hand to stop her, she took two steps forward, opened the curtain and looked, and saw a handsome boy in an indigo shirt kneeling in front of a middle-aged lady in the bright room, feeling puzzled Said: "Could it be that the members of the Xu family also worry about their children's marriage?"

"Ma'am, the Jingying Jiedu Envoy Wang's family has come." The daughter-in-law who led the way hurriedly raised her voice.

"...Call her in, and you kneel here." The lady said.

Wang's daughter-in-law was surprised, and came in respectfully, looked at the brother again, and saw that his face like a crown of jade was still flushed, as if he had just been slapped, and said with a smile: "Greetings to my wife, but it will delay my wife's life." Have you taken care of the housework?" Seeing that the middle-aged lady was in her forties, wearing a light green silk shirt, she looked very gentle and amiable.

"Please sit down, it's not a big chore." Sitting under a painting of Clivia hanging in the middle hall, Yuan Shi wondered what this Wang family was doing.Could it be to compensate?

Wang's daughter-in-law thanked her and sat on the footrest. Hearing Yuan's voice soft and waxy, it seemed younger than her own. She cast a resentful glance at her brother who was kneeling beside her, and said with a sneer, "Madam, why don't you call me first?" go out?"

Yuan Shi glanced at Xu Yuheng with a smile, and said indifferently: "Don't pay attention to him. I don't know if Mrs. Wang has something to say?"

Wang's daughter-in-law was originally sitting on the footrest, but she got up and said with a smile: "I heard that the family has discussed marriage with the second master Jia Jialian. This is absolutely unacceptable."

"What can't be done?" Xu Yuheng blurted out, seeing Yuan's indifferent glance at him, he bowed his head again and remained silent.

Wang's daughter-in-law hurriedly said: "The old lady of the Jia family made an arrangement for the marriage between our girl and the second master of Jia Jialian a few years ago. How can there be any reason to set up two families? When the old Duke of the Jia family passed away, our girl went to Jia Jialian. The family is wearing sackcloth and filial piety. Our master was very angry when he heard it, and said that the wives were afraid that they would be deceived by others, so he asked the younger one to speak."

Yuan Shi said with a slight smile: "That's strange. A girl from your family purposely said that brother Lian didn't make an appointment."

Wang's daughter-in-law said cheekily: "How does her little girl's family know these things? It's just that the old lady and the wife above tell her to do what she does, and she does it. The wife doesn't know. Because of the Jia family, our girl's reputation They were all corrupted, the old lady of the Jia family was ashamed, she felt very sorry for our girl, she said that she would make up for her mistakes, and treat our girl kindly when she came into her house."

"Since that's the case, the right and left have not been decided yet, so your family should go find the Jia family's theory first." Yuan said.

Wang's daughter-in-law quickly laughed and said: "Our master said that if the Jia family doesn't give an explanation, we will meet the Jia family in court."

Yuan Shi knew about Jia's and Wang's quarrel a long time ago, so she said with a smile: "You are very reasonable, then, see you in court."

Wang's daughter-in-law was taken aback for a moment, seeing that the Yuan family was so unashamed and not annoyed, she suspected that Jia Lian had fooled the Xu family first, so she took two steps forward and said in a low voice: "My wife doesn't know, our girl and Lian's second master It's a childhood sweetheart..."

"Hmph, another childhood sweetheart! I just don't understand, obviously..."

"Shut up!" Yuan Shi stopped Xu Yuheng, her smile faded a lot, and she said to Wang's daughter-in-law: "Say hello to your wife for me, I have a lot of things today, so I won't let you talk."

Wang's daughter-in-law didn't finish talking, and she refused to leave, but saw that the Xu family had issued an order to evict guests, so she had to go out, and asked the leading daughter-in-law about the affairs of Xu's family, but saw that the daughter-in-law was very tight-lipped, not many explain.

In the room, Yuan Shi turned her head away with hatred, and sighed: "I don't understand, Wanting has both virtue and appearance, and she is much better than the women outside. Why do you..."

"My son would rather marry a woman he has never met before, but he definitely cannot marry her. Calling her younger brother and sister, I already regard her as a real younger sister in my heart. How can an older brother marry a younger sister?" Xu Yuheng stood up stubbornly Even though he couldn't bear Li Wanting being wronged, he definitely couldn't marry her.

Yuan Shi sighed again and again, and just said: "It's useless if you don't want to, your father has already sent a letter to settle the matter between you and Wanting."

Xu Yuheng was startled, "Mother—"

"Before you were young, I was afraid that your ignorance would make everyone look ugly. Now that you are sensible, if you still want to make trouble, then go ahead and make trouble. Wanting will come in after the next year." Yuan's Liu Mei smiled slightly. Fuu, as if talking to himself, murmured: "I really don't know what you are thinking in your heart. Wanting is one of the best in appearance, and it is hard to match her talent and learning. She is also good to you. How many young men can't wish for it?" , why are you so stubborn and unwilling?" If Xu Yuheng had taken a fancy to someone else and refused because of someone else in his heart, it would make sense, but he was not like that.

"Mother must make a resentful couple?" Xu Yuheng stood up abruptly, clenched his fists angrily, and was startled when he saw Yuan Shi, and it was as Yuan Shi said, at this age, he would not dare to look like two people earlier. Years of quarreling and brazenly.

Yuan Shi said earnestly: "If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer in front of your eyes. After you get married, you will naturally understand the benefits of Wanting."

"Hmph." Xu Yuheng walked around the room like a beast, and after persuading Yuan Shi, he snorted coldly and went out, only to meet Xu Qingheng and Li Wanting head-on when he went out. , with a faint greeting on his face, he was about to leave.

"Hey, brother," Xu Qingheng stopped Xu Yuheng's way in two steps, and handed him a water-colored bag, "This is sorted out by the old lady. The stereotyped articles written by the old lady in the early years. The old lady said that the fourth brother is not good. It’s too late to lay the foundation. The fourth brother should memorize all these, and once he memorizes them, he can write articles.”

"The old lady is old and dim-sighted, still have the time to fix this?" Xu Yuheng was surprised, took the burden himself, saw that the burden was heavy, opened it, and it turned out to be an stereotyped article written by Xu Zhian when he was young, and there were comments from his mentor Xu Zhian on it, so he couldn't help being happy Said: "If you memorize all these, you will become a nerd."

Li Wanting smiled and said: "I don't know how Qingheng remembered it, we sisters went to the old lady's side to help clean up." Seeing that Xu Yuheng's face was not very happy, the smile faded a little.

Although Xu Zhi'an stopped him, Jia Lian's long speech had already spread among the Xu family. The three sisters of the Li family and the two sisters of the Xu family all looked at Jia Lian with admiration. He has not learned enough.

Xu Yuheng also knew this, so he joked: "You guys are better to the fourth brother outside than to my own brother." After accepting the burden, because he just heard what Wang's daughter-in-law said, he also intended to tell Jia Lian, so he resigned. After leaving Xu Qingheng and Li Wanting, they asked the servant to get on the horse and go to Jia's house with the burden.
