Femme Beauty

Chapter 50 Chapter 2

I entered the next mansion in a carriage, because I was going through the main entrance, so I looked carefully along the way.Wang Xifeng did not expect that the old lady really used her money to welcome Jia Yuanchun back home.But thinking about the relationship between the Zhen family, she wondered if it was still the same as it was then, and there was money from the Zhen family in it.

After entering the second gate, I got on the sedan chair and soon arrived at the main courtyard.Because she was a female family member, she took a side road and entered the inner courtyard, which led directly to Jiamu's courtyard.Looking at the plaque of Rong'an Hall on the courtyard, Wang Xifeng snickered inwardly.Is it possible that this old lady is desperate to save face and suffer?Who is this for?

"I've seen the old lady!" Respectfully squatting down on the luggage, Mother Jia sat on it and looked at this young girl in full bloom.Taking advantage of her bright red face, she didn't even feel tired during the journey.After all is young!She sighed, quickly asked Wang Xifeng to get up, and pulled her to sit beside her: "But Haosheng is back... Don't say anything else, how have you been there all these years?"

Wang Xifeng turned her phoenix eyes, and Mrs. Wang and Li Wan were accompanying her.I didn't see the younger ones. I'm afraid Jia Lan and Jia Huan are going to school, and Baoyu probably doesn't know where to play.

"My aunt is taking care of me because we live together, so I don't have to worry about it. The climate in the south is good, and I feel my face is tight this time. I feel better after using face cream. It's the old lady, come with me When I was young, I usually looked like that. If you look carefully, you are much younger!" Wang Xifeng squinted and smiled, looking at the aunt pretending to be a Bodhisattva.Very cute.

"You can tell. I'm an old woman... how can I be young?" Jia Mu smiled and patted her hand.Wang Xifeng tilted her head and smiled: "The old lady is used to looking in the mirror all day, and she doesn't know how to look carefully. I haven't seen it for three or four years, so I must be able to see it." She stretched out her hand secretly Pointing to Jia Mu's sideburns: "When I left, I saw frost on the old lady's side. I was worried at the time...but now I look at it, it's black and oily. It's not young anymore."

Her voice was brisk, with a smile in her words.It made the scene very lively.Mother Jia never thought much about her.After all, she was a newly married daughter-in-law, so what happened was not her fault.Besides, Wang Ziteng was also involved in her.At present, Yuanchun is not pregnant yet, so one grain road is not enough.If they have children in the future, they have to count on Wang Ziteng for more.At this time, Wang Ziteng was already a member of the first rank, and it might be possible to regain his title at some point.She couldn't help [dei] thinking about it.

Baoyu was playing well in the yard, when she heard the girl say that there are guests.It's the little sister-in-law in the mansion next door. He sounds fresh.And I always heard people say that the little sister-in-law is such a coquettish person.Without putting on anything, he ran all the way from the garden.

After arranging his clothes at the door, he walked in.After simply greeting Mother Jia and getting closer, what caught my eye was a beauty comparable to a peony.He looked familiar, and thought for a while: "This sister looks familiar, is it from our family?"

He was asking about Jia Mu and his own mother, but his eyes never deviated.Wang Xifeng found it interesting to see him like that.At this time, Baoyu was not very old, and she was very cute in bright red clothes at the age of seven or eight.

"This is the daughter-in-law of your Lian's second brother, called Lian's second sister-in-law." Mrs. Wang replied aside.Jia's mother looked at him and smiled: "What are you calling Lian's second sister-in-law? Our Feng girl is so graceful that she can call her old. Just call her sister Feng, it's not too big."

Baoyu looked at Jia's mother and smiled: "I look familiar, and I feel that I have seen it before. I have never seen it before, but I suddenly feel familiar. I am afraid I have seen it before, I don't remember it. Sister don't want to Blame me." He spoke well-behaved, revealing the truth.For Baoyu, Wang Xifeng really didn't have any temper.This kid is just a stupid kid, even if he is stupid, he is also an idiot.But if you think about it, there is probably only one clean man in the whole mansion.

"Aiyo... Brother Bao just knows how to talk." Wang Xifeng covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief with a smile, "You were still young at that time, so it's possible that you don't remember. I just met you twice when I first entered the school. I can’t tell you just by talking face to face. You deserve it if you don’t remember. I just came from Jiangnan and brought you the little things from there. I see you are young, so I’ll let your elder brother Lian I have chosen for you. They say they are good inkstones and inks, but I don’t know if you like them.”

"I like it for whatever reason." Baoyu chuckled, looked down at the jade hanging around his neck, and suddenly thought: "Then... does my sister have any jade?"

Hearing this question, Wang Xifeng burst out laughing.She smiled frankly, and stretched out her hand to pinch Baoyu's cheek: "Brother Bao said this, who in our class doesn't have jade... stone? It's just that Brother Bao is rare..."

"Is it rare?" Baoyu lowered his head and took his own jade, frowned and thought for a while: "Everyone has nothing, so what's the use of me wanting it?" He said a little frustrated.Wang Xifeng thought about Baoyu throwing jade before, she crossed her knees with a smile: "Oh... Brother Bao, what you said is wrong. This treasure... it must be unique. If everyone has , is that still a baby?"

She smiled and narrowed her eyes. Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu were very satisfied with this.At least, the jade on Baoyu's chest is not the original thing, and few people still know it.They just feel that, on the one hand, not many of their family members know about it.Not to mention, the emperor might have to cover up.

"Is that so!" Baoyu blinked and looked at Jiamu, who smiled and rubbed Baoyu's head and looked at Mrs. Wang: "I just said, as long as Feng girl comes back, I... don't have to worry about this happy life." matter."

Mrs. Wang nodded and smiled and said yes.Jia Mu took Wang Xifeng's hand: "It's just us girls at noon, let's have a drink or two with me, so it's lively."

"How can it be done!" Wang Xifeng smiled and glanced at Mrs. Wang: "If you want me to say, you have to drink three big bowls."

Listening to her laughter, Jia's mother also felt happy.What she likes most is this kind of lively life surrounded by people.The older I get, the more I miss the magnificence I saw in the palace, and the more I feel that I need it.

The lunch was lively, and Wang Xifeng ate a small bowl of Longxu Noodles as a way of fulfilling the custom of going out to make dumplings and returning home with noodles.After drinking five glasses of wine, she felt a little dizzy and went back to her room and collapsed on the kang, not wanting to move.While giving her slippers and socks, Qiu Ju complained: "Grandma is too serious, how can the old lady just eat whatever she says. The wine here is better than the wine in the south."

"If you don't want to drink, why don't you drink it for me?" Wang Xifeng kicked her with her foot: "Go and get your grandma a cold water towel, it's hot." She fanned herself, sat up and took off her coat Go, tilt your head on the lead pillow.

"But it can't be like this...Grandma hasn't eaten wine in these years. How can she suddenly eat so much?" Qiu Ju reluctantly called the little girl to come in, and cleaned her face with a wet handkerchief.

"If you don't eat more today, you will suffer in the future." Wang Xifeng put a cold towel on his forehead for a while, sat up and waved the girls to go down, and pulled Qiuju to sit on the edge of the kang to pillow her lap: "Grandma I rub my forehead."

Qiu Ju rubbed her forehead obediently and gently: "I see, grandma will have to eat again when she returns to her mother's house tomorrow."

"That's not true. My aunt is not so shameless." Wang Xifeng said with a sarcasm: "Look at the furnishings here today, almost all of them are old things. Looking at the old lady, I'm afraid it's too strong." Prosperous. But my aunt is used to blocking money."

"When I went to deliver things to the second girl over there, I saw that the place was very lonely. It was said that most of them had already moved into the garden, and they only waited for the imperial concubine to visit her relatives before moving in. It was just privately, I heard Licorice said that The monthly money on the side is always a few days in the evening. I don’t know if it’s because of the garden, which drags it down.”

"Hey!" Wang Xifeng sneered: "What else can I do, let me give you some money. That aunt of mine..."

"Example money?" Qiu Ju's mouth widened when she heard that, and she looked around, "That's the one who's going to confiscate his home and go to jail...Second Wife..."

"If the people don't turn against the government, they won't be arrested." Wang Xifeng patted her and asked her to continue: "You take it as a problem? If nothing happens in the future, it will be an additional bonus every year. As long as the man is decent enough outside, he will be in private." Who in these forty-nine cities here will talk about things with such needles and threads."

"That's also something that damages Yin and morality." Qiu Ju felt that such a thing was really unacceptable.

"Alas!" Wang Xifeng sighed: "If there is a way, who would like to do that with the wives and grandmas? My aunt and uncle seem to be fine in the few years after Baoyu was born. Right now, he is outside, and the following bastards Concubine daughter. The old lady at the top is holding her back. When she got married, the dowry was only 3 to [-] taels of silver. The odds and ends of the money in her hand were probably not even comparable to my annual income. At that time, there were three boys in the family. My son is going to marry a daughter-in-law, how dare my grandfather spend a lot of money on marrying his daughter? She may have no choice now. The old lady looks like a person who likes wealth and splendor. But it needs money, and there is no money Where does the wealth and glory come from?"

"That's true. But I'm afraid this matter was done without telling the old lady!" Qiu Ju thought so, and the second wife was also a poor person.

Hearing this, Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows: "You are the only girl who can think this way. The old lady came into the house as an ordinary wife. Later, she was able to pick her up and become the second wife. How can she have no means. If you want me to say, this matter is probably a Knowing that she would not ask. Anyway, she is not the one who suffers in the end. She is still thinking about her family's face in the Taihuang! Why worry about this. I just thought, I am afraid that the second master should stay as far away as possible when he comes back. But You see, the whole house behind the mansion has been made into a garden by them, I'm afraid they will call here every now and then. My father-in-law is not here right now, and she is invited to dinner by an elder, can she not go? One time to evade two The second one is okay. If there are too many, it will be a disrespectful reputation. At that time, how will our father be admitted to Jinshi?"

The more Wang Xifeng talked, the more upset she became, she had no choice but to close her eyes and let her mind stop thinking.Qiu Ju's fingers were moderately soft, and soon she fell asleep with the strength of alcohol.

The next day, Wang Xifeng got up early.April in the north was a bit colder, making her think it was April in the Gregorian calendar.But seeing that she was still wearing two layers of clothes in the coming summer season, she was very worried about the climate in the north.

Regardless of whether it is the Yong Dynasty or the Song Dynasty, this land is a country dominated by farming.If there is not enough agricultural production, then there will be social unrest.She still remembers the spring before her death.It was originally the south of the Yangtze River in March in Yangchun, but there were fine snowflakes.

Snow in March missed the spring plowing.In autumn, I am afraid that it will be flooded or severely drought. The climate in the north and south is so bad, the country will not last long.This reminded her of the Ming Dynasty in history.Since Jiajing, the climate has become less suitable.In the case of Hai Rui, it was mentioned that in February, when Hai Rui was scolding the Emperor angrily, it snowed in the capital.February of the lunar calendar should be March and April of the Gregorian calendar at that time.If there are no accidents, it should be the season of warm spring and flowers blooming.However, it was snowing in Beijing, and according to geographical records, the climate in the southern Huguang area was also rainy and snowy.

It was clearly stated in a documentary on the historical climate survey of North Asia jointly conducted by countries such as Russia and South Korea.When China is suffering from natural climate disasters, the climate in Mongolia, Siberia and northeast Heilongjiang is becoming more and more pleasant.

She faced the mirror with delicate flowers, and the golden peonies were exquisitely crafted.After finishing the makeup, the sun has already hung on the railing.

Hearing that Wang Xifeng was coming, Mrs. Wang Ziteng prepared her favorite Beijing dishes at home early.

Seeing Wang Xifeng in bright red entering the room, Mrs. Wang Ziteng quickly got up and hugged the girl she had grown up with since she was a child.Pat gently: "It's good to come back, I thought you were going to stay there for ten or eight years. Come back only after you have children!"

"It can be done there! Even if he is willing, I will not obey." Wang Xifeng smiled and took Mrs. Wang Ziteng's hand and sat on the kang. She took a box from the plate that Qiu Ju was dragging and stuffed it in like a thief. Mrs. Wang Ziteng: "This is the Bodhisattva I specially obtained from Longfu Temple. Although the quality of the jade is a little old. After all, it is an object of a certain age. I will secretly give this to you. Don't tell my uncle. If you can't say it, I will teach you again." I don't know how to be frugal."

"What does he know... Poor sons and rich daughters. If you don't have any money, you can live a comfortable life." Mrs. Wang Ziteng opened the box with a smile.Inside is a white jade Avalokitesvara with a shell of incense oil, which is exquisitely carved.

The bracket is made of old rosewood, and the flying belt on Guanyin's body is hollowed out.It can be seen that the master is very particular about what he does.The waves are blooming under the feet, and the texture is clear.It is a rare good product.She looked like it, although she was only over a foot tall, she was very pleased with it.

"I'm afraid I've been looking for it for a long time!" She put Guanyin into the box, and let the nuns around her put it away.Choose a good day in the future, and then put it in your own small Buddhist hall.Although she doesn't believe in those people, she will make offerings to some of them.The main thing is to find an inner peace of mind.

"That's not true, it's a coincidence." Wang Xifeng smiled and asked Qiuju to give the other things to the nanny, rubbing her buttocks back: "I went to see Zhuangzi, and I passed by Longfu Temple. Thinking about asking for a peace talisman. After all, there were already people making trouble in Jinling City at that time, but the small troubles were not so serious. I looked at the strange thing and went into the temple. I saw an old woman , said that the whole family is going to move to Haining. It’s just that it’s inconvenient to take this Guanyin all the way along the road. I hope it would be good if it can be collected in the temple and worshiped. I saw the right eye at first sight, and I think you must I would like it. So I begged to come here. It cost a full 4000 taels of silver...but I think it is super worth it when I get it in my hand."

"You girl!" Mrs. Wang Ziteng was very happy. She nodded Wang Xifeng's forehead: "My dowry is not all left to you in the future. You are planning. It will save you trouble in the future."

"It can be done there!" Wang Xifeng pouted, "Am I that kind of person!"

"Why not? You kept such an important matter in your stomach until your mother-in-law's aunt gave birth." Mrs. Wang Ziteng was talking about Tianlu.

"You know, I don't always believe in those things. At that time, I was a dead horse as a living horse doctor. To put it bluntly, you know that my mind is quick. When I went to those days, I watched my aunt and uncle's husband and wife love each other deeply. Yes. I was thinking, if my aunt had a difficult delivery this time, my uncle would be hit hard, so how could we have a chance to borrow our strength? Besides, we will do our best even if it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter if heirs, he will definitely teach my husband well. Isn’t it me who will be proud in the future! Thinking about it, I made up my mind to give it a try. Who knows, it’s a good thing after all. I was still thinking, Was that person kidding me back then! If it wasn't for that set of white jade bottles, I would have thrown it away long ago."

Mrs. Wang Ziteng glared at her with a smile: "You are a good one. Don't say this to others in the future. Although it is a matter of everyone's family, it will hurt if you say it."

"Why don't I just tell you!" Wang Xifeng smiled coyly and put his arms around Mrs. Wang Ziteng's arm: "Auntie... what do you have for lunch? I don't even need breakfast, so I'm just waiting for this meal!"

"Didn't you go to your old lady's place yesterday?" Mrs. Wang Ziteng pinched her cheek and smiled lovingly.

"It's used, but it's not easy to eat. Except for the chicken noodle soup, yesterday's ones are still in the mouth, and the others are either so soft that you can't eat them, or they are so greasy that you can see oily flowers." Wang Xifeng curled her lips, very It was the children who complained and said: "You don't know, the dishes on that table don't even have two slices of cabbage. Not to mention the greasy ones, the taste seems to be fed with seasoning. There are a few things, I ate it for a long time without guessing what the main ingredient was."

"It's old man, let's eat something soft and heavy." Mrs. Wang Ziteng patted Wang Xifeng's hand: "Someone specially asked someone to take the shellfish you sent last year and make fresh soup. If your uncle doesn't come back at noon, we Ladies, I make pear wine in winter."

Hearing the sweet stuffed pear fruit, Wang Xifeng's eyes disappeared with laughter.Mrs. Wang Ziteng was also in a good mood because of her smile.
