Jia Zheng through the Red Mansions

One month after Jia Zheng's report, it will be May. Here, Jia Qiang has done a very good job in assisting Rongguo Mansion. There is no one in Rongguo Mansion who does not give a thumbs up, but Jia Zhen in Ningguo Mansion is very dissatisfied. One is that Jia Qiang is too popular, and the other is that Jia Qiang did not help him get Jia Zhu's favor at all.

After Sister Feng entered the door on May [-]th, Jia Qiang naturally had no reason to participate in the management of Rongguo Mansion, so she returned to the East Mansion. When Jia Qiang went to ask Jia Zhen to reply, Jia Zhen picked her nose and eyes After being ridiculed in public, Jia Rong stood by and focused all her attention on the young man she had hooked up with, and didn't say a good word for Jia Qiang.

The servants in the East Mansion were originally worried that Jia Qiang would gain power in the Rong Mansion, and the gossip they had spread in private would be caught and dealt with. Now that Jia Zhen and Jia Rong have no regard for Jia Qiang. Like each other, each of them secretly rejoices and gloats in their hearts.

Jia Qiang didn't even change her expression, she just listened quietly, the corner of her mouth slowly curved into a cold arc.

After Jia Zhen finished her training, she glared at Jia Qiang: "Go back and think about your mistakes behind closed doors!" After that, without even looking at him, she said to Jia Rong, "Go change your clothes, it's time to go to Rongfu."

The Rongguo Mansion at this time is very lively, and the entire Rongning Street is out to watch this luxurious marriage. Mrs. Xing originally felt sorry for the money she paid out, but at this time, she saw the team of her daughter-in-law giving her a wedding. The momentum was huge, and the dowry motorcade was three times more than when Li Wan married in. The unhappiness in his heart disappeared long ago, and his face was full of smug smiles.

Mrs. Wang looked at Mrs. Xing's complacent look, and sneered in her heart, her face remained calm. Li Wan, who was standing beside Mrs. Wang and serving her, didn't look very good either. She carefully looked at Mrs. Wang's expression, After going back to Jia Huan, Li Wan noticed that Mrs. Wang was dissatisfied with him.

However, Li Wan's worries did not come true. Mrs. Wang was dissatisfied that it was one thing for Li Wan to destroy her plan. Even if Mrs. Wang were to re-elect now, she would never choose to give up Li Wan because of the amount of dowry. Her son, she knew in her heart what Zhu'er wanted, and Li Shouzhong, the father-in-law, was still very important.

As for Jia Lian, Mrs. Wang knew very well what kind of virtue he was. Even if the Wang family was willing to support him, he would still be an idiot who couldn't support him!

As for the dowry, Mrs. Wang glanced at Mrs. Xing. She was aware of Brother Feng's temperament and wanted to take power. Well, now the house is full of holes, and someone needs to fill these vacancies. Retreating is advancing, Brother Feng's so much dowry just came in handy, and after that... a gleam of coldness flashed in Madam Wang's eyes.

Li Wan watched from the side. Although she didn't know what Madam Wang was thinking, her heart trembled in Madam Wang's eyes, as if a basin of ice water poured directly on her heart.

The elders have their own thoughts, but for the younger generation, Jia Lian is the groom's official. Although he had met Wang Xifeng before, at that time, Jia's mother hadn't revealed that she wanted to marry Wang Xifeng to him as his wife, so he didn't care about a girl. , so the impression of Wang Xifeng has been blurred, so there is a bit of anticipation in my heart, and I think that I must wake up Fu Gang as soon as possible, so I am very excited.

Yingchun is the oldest among the girls. This is the second time the family has held a wedding. The last time when Jia Zhu got married, she was the elder sister Yuanchun who took care of her at home. This time, the errand fell on Yingchun, so Yingchun was also extraordinarily busy. Even so, nothing went wrong. After all, Yingchun, who was trained in Yuanchun Mansion, has been completely reborn, and there is a clever girl like Siqi to check for gaps and fill in gaps.

Mrs. Xing looked even more proud, and she glanced at Mrs. Wang provocatively, the junior in her own room has stole the limelight today!Mother Jia ignored the turmoil between the two daughters-in-law. She was very satisfied with Yingchun now. Such a daughter is the young lady of the Duke's family. The eldest daughter-in-law's short-sightedness made any mistakes in the second girl's marriage.

Baoyu, Jia Huan, Tanchun, and Xichun were still young, and the family was very busy with weddings and happy events. They were the most carefree of all.

Jia Zhu followed Jia Zheng and Jia She to entertain guests outside, and did not come to the backyard. At this time, Jia Zhen brought Jia Rong. Guessing what was going on, he said in his heart that he didn't know if everything would go as he expected, and whether Jia Qiang would choose to take that step.

The guests outside were drinking and drinking, and the women in the house were all at ease, and the bride and groom were finally sent into the bridal chamber after complicated etiquette.

After removing the red hijab, tonight Wang Xifeng and Fengguanxia wore gorgeous makeup, and those red phoenix eyes glanced at Jia Lian with a bit of shyness and curiosity at the moment the hijab was lifted, making Jia Lian's bones almost brittle.What Zhen Fugang gave the bride a big blow, at this moment he forgot all about it.

Wang Xifeng is also very satisfied with Jia Lian. Jia Lian is more handsome and suave than she imagined, and treats her infinitely gentle at night. Feng Geer, who has always been sharp, has a little daughter's feelings at this time. After the fourth day it was broken.

Wang Xifeng brought four maids for her dowry, two were served by her since she was a child, and two were sent by her mother before she got married. Jia Lian's original housekeeper vying for favor.

Wang Xifeng had no objection to her mother's arrangement. At that time, all she thought about in her heart was to take charge of the power of the Jia family with her aunt after she got married, but now it is different. After the wedding night, she began to think about how to keep Jia Lian's original How could the housewives be willing to add two more eyesores when they were kicked out?

However, Jia Lian is the one who looks at what is in the bowl and thinks about what is in the pot. Although Wang Xifeng is beautiful and charming, but after all, he has eaten it. How can it compare to the beauty that has not been obtained?

Those two maids are not easy-going lamps. How can you not be tempted by such a handsome Jia Lian? Compared with being a boy at the age, it is undoubtedly decent to be a housewife. They have become masters, so they flatter them whenever they get the chance.

Compared with the two of them, the two Ping'er and Yi'er who have served Wang Xifeng since childhood are much smarter. The two of them know Wang Xifeng's methods when she was a girl, and they are close-fitting maids. Naturally, they understand the changes in Wang Xifeng's eyebrows. At this moment, I wish I could touch two handfuls of stove ashes on my face and try to be a transparent person in front of my son-in-law.

Wang Xifeng was no stranger to Jia's mansion before she got married. After entering the door, she went to set up rules in front of Jia's mother. Wang Xifeng was so sweet that she picked some of Jia's mother's favorite words to say. Jia's mother was already very satisfied with Wang Xifeng's impression. , at this time, I feel that I have not misjudged the person, and I like Wang Xifeng even more.

Mrs. Xing was thinking about Wang Xifeng's dowry, so she was naturally very considerate to this daughter-in-law, like a kind mother-in-law. Wang Xifeng originally looked down on Mrs. Xing, because when she was a girl, she heard a lot about Mrs. Xing from her aunt, Mrs. Wang. Acting in a manner, but at this time Wang Xifeng was thinking about how to clean up the people in Jia Lian's room. Mrs. Xing was the best person to take advantage of, so she patiently flattered her.

Soon there was an opportunity. An aunt of Mrs. Xing's natal family passed away. At this time, Wang Xifeng had already helped the housekeeper under Jia's mother's behest, and became the third housekeeper besides Mrs. Wang and Li Wan. Delegating power, so he doesn't care much about everything. Li Wan has always been silent, so although it is said that there are three housekeepers, it is actually Wang Xifeng's voice.

Mrs. Xing originally thought that Wang Xifeng was her daughter-in-law. This time her aunt died, so she should have given more money. Who knew that Wang Xifeng only gave 20 people to send it, and Mrs. Xing had already boasted about it at her natal family. Haikou, how can he give up after being slapped in the face this time, and angrily seek Wang Xifeng to settle accounts.

Wang Xifeng was waiting for Mrs. Xing. As soon as Mrs. Xing entered the door, she saw Wang Xifeng's frowning expression, and there was a small open box on the table, which was full of silver ingots, as many as 300 taels. .

Mrs. Xing became even angrier when she saw Yinzi, she scolded Wang Xifeng sourly, and her usual charitable mother-in-law disappeared.

Wang Xifeng had expected this earlier, she looked aggrieved, and listened with her head down, her eye circles were red, and after a while she said with a sob: "My daughter-in-law didn't know the rules when she first came in, so she fell in love with the old lady and helped the housekeeper. I can’t make up my mind about this time, I’m angry with my wife if I don’t have enough, and if I give too much, people will say that I’m partial to others, so my daughter-in-law went to the second wife to discuss it, but the second wife said that it’s not good for her to be a younger brother and sister Don't worry, let the daughter-in-law make up her own mind, it's not easy for the daughter-in-law to go to her sister-in-law, so she finds the second master's girl, Qinghe, who is a slave born in the family, and is given to the second master by the wife, so naturally she doesn't like the rules of the house. She told her daughter-in-law that according to the convention, only ten taels is enough. The daughter-in-law thought it was too little, so she added ten taels privately. She never thought that it would make the wife angry. No."

After saying this, Mrs. Xing's anger had already been burned on Qing He's body. Seeing Mrs. Xing's face changed, Wang Xifeng quickly added fuel to the fire and said: "The 300 taels of silver, my wife wants to let Ping'er secretly send it to me." , in this way, it saves face and avoids making people tongue-tied."

Madam Xing felt that she had wronged Wang Xifeng when she heard it. She was happy that Wang Xifeng was willing to take the money, but also regretted that she lost her temper for no reason just now, so she really comforted Wang Xifeng with kind words, and found an excuse to drive Qing He away that day. out.

Mrs. Xing also thought that these girls had been following Jia Lian for a long time, and she might have other thoughts. If there is one Qing He today, there will inevitably be others like this tomorrow, so it is better to drive them out together.

This Jia Lian is a master who likes the new and dislikes the old. In his eyes, people like Qing He don't even have the right to eat leftovers, so how can he care? Now his mind is full of thoughts about the two beautiful girls brought by Wang Xifeng. Go to the new do not come!

Wang Xifeng saw it, and felt unhappy. She always relied on her beauty, but she never thought that her husband would covet those two girls who were not as good-looking as her. Although she understood Jia Lian's hint, she pretended not to understand and asked The opportunity sent them both away, and Jia Lian was so angry that he beat his chest and stomped his feet, but Wang Xifeng was left in the cold for a while.

Wang Xifeng thought that Jia Lian would calm down after kicking out all the annoying people, but she didn't expect Jia Lian to neglect her, and she was even more annoyed, but there was nothing she could do. At this time, it was Granny Yuanchun's birthday. A few days ago, she felt a little cold and didn't go there, so Mrs. Wang took Wang Xifeng and Li Wan, two daughter-in-laws from Jia's mansion, as well as Yingchun, Tanchun and Baoyu, to Mancha's mansion.

It was the first time for Wang Xifeng to look at Yuan Chun carefully. Both of them are good housekeepers. The difference is that Wang Xifeng's methods are quite pungent and relentless, while Yuan Chun carefully crafts everything to find the best strategy. Two people with completely different personalities They were both curious and fond of each other.

Wang Xifeng had heard about Yuan Chun, so she was very eager to see how Yuan Chun could win her husband's heart, and seeing Wang Xifeng's demeanor and insight, Yuan Chun secretly regretted that such a character was ruined by Jia Lian.

Yuan Chun saw the slight sadness in Wang Xifeng's eyes when he mentioned Jia Lian's matter, and he knew in his heart that it was hard to say anything, so he only asked Wang Xifeng to come and talk to her when he was free. Wang Xifeng also admired Yuan Chun very much, so he naturally agreed.

After coming and going, Wang Xifeng also met many young ladies who often visited Yuanchun's mansion, and two of them had the greatest influence on Wang Xifeng.

One is Dong Jiashi, the wife of Li Shangru, Jia Lian's former friend, and the other is Zhang Shi, the wife of Wei Ruomei, the eldest son of Wei Qing, Minister of the Ministry of War.

This Dong Jia family is a Manchu daughter, notoriously jealous and pungent, she subdued this greedy and lustful Li Shangru, she was slightly dissatisfied, the last time she scolded her was the lightest one, once Li Shangru secretly went outside He raised a little girl who sang music, and when Dong Jiashi found out, he smashed the porcelain vase to the ground on the spot, and made Li Shangru kneel on the fragments of the porcelain vase for an hour. It's begging for mercy.

The whole family of this Li family has nothing to do with this aunt. The three elder brothers of her family are all generals of the Eight Banners, and her cousins ​​are all Mongolian men. Each fist is thicker than this Li Shangru's arm. How dare he have a little bit of it? Thoughts of rebellion?

This is not the case for Mrs. Zhang. There are two aunts in Wei Ruomei's room, three maids, and there are many unnamed people. Mrs. Zhang gave birth to a son, and the two aunts are one son and one Daughter, the girl from the house hasn't come out yet, but the Zhang family is as stable as Mount Tai, treats the concubine with a bowl of water, is not jealous, and is not mean to the children of the concubine, so everyone in the Wei family does not say that she is virtuous of.

Such two people can become friends, which Wang Xifeng can't understand. In her opinion, this should be incompatible.

"Hmph, he is my man in life, and my ghost in death. No one can separate him." Dong Jiashi said boldly.

"He's just my husband, the father of my child, that's all." Mrs. Zhang looked at Wang Xifeng with deep meaning.

Wang Xifeng looked at the two women in front of her, and went back to Jia's mansion without sleep, thinking about these two women, what did she really care about?

Partly because of his sincerity towards Jia Lian, and partly because of his own face, Wang Xifeng knew in his heart that this face might still have the upper hand, since he grew up so old, it was the first time he was humiliated and planted in the hands of his sister-in-law. The second time was Jia Lian. Now my elder brother has not taken a concubine. If Jia Lian did take a concubine, his sister-in-law might use it to ridicule her. She really couldn't bear it!

However, if she wants to tear up her face like Dong Jiashi, she doesn't have Dong Jiashi's background to rely on... Wang Xifeng hesitated in her heart, and finally decided to give Jia Lian another chance to see if he was worth it .

This time, Wang Xifeng put down her body and softly coaxed Jia Lian. Seeing Wang Xifeng's haggard and cautious face, Jia Lian was quite pleased with herself. For a while, but within half a month, Jia Lian took a fancy to Ping'er and Yi'er again. This time, Wang Xifeng's heart was completely cold.

If it is said that the two girls could still find a reason for Jia Lian to be seduced, then this time it is completely Jia Lian's fault. She knows the temperament of Ping'er and Yi'er best, and it is absolutely impossible to do such thing.

Wang Xifeng called the two of them to his side. Ping'er and Yi'er didn't know what was wrong with the lady, but they were very anxious seeing her complexion.

"Yesterday, the second master said that he wants to ask you two to be housekeepers." Wang Xifeng didn't talk nonsense, and said Jia Lian's words directly.

Ping'er and Yi'er turned pale with fright, and they all knelt down with a plop: "Miss..."

"Needless to say, I understand everything, it's not your fault." Wang Xifeng stroked her forehead, waved her hands, asked the two of them to stand up, looked at Yi'er first, and said: "Yi'er, you are the girl who was sold into our palace. , there are still family members here, if you want, I will give you a bond of sale and revoke your slavery."

Yi'er's eyes turned red when he heard this: "Miss, don't want Yi'er anymore, it's because of Yi'er's fault."

Wang Xifeng smiled wryly and shook his head: "Our master and servant have been reluctant to part with you for so many years, but if you keep you, it will be ruined by him for nothing. I won't force you, you can choose yourself."

Yi'er bit her lip, and finally kowtowed three times to Wang Xifeng, accepted the deed of sale with tears in her eyes, and returned home. Her family also has a younger brother. Back then, her parents sold her for money and bought a small stall in the downtown area , Now I have a small shop, and my younger brother has married a wife.

She worked as a young lady's personal maid in the palace, and she was not expelled because of a mistake, but was released by a special gift when she reached her age. A wealthy family had already gotten wind and sent someone to propose a marriage. This Yi'er has been with Wang Xifeng for many years, and has experienced Jia Lian. In this matter, I was very careful in choosing a person. In the end, I married a simple and honest long-term worker in my family. The two of them helped the family to do things.

Ping'er was unwilling to leave Wang Xifeng no matter what, knelt on the ground and said with tears: "Miss, I know you love us, so let us go out, but those heartless noisy women will say that Miss is jealous, Even we can't tolerate people like us! Miss, I would rather stay and serve you and uncle, just for my own sake, if the lady thinks it's Ping'er, I'm blinded by lard and want to climb high, then I'd rather bump into Ping'er Die here!"

Wang Xifeng felt very uncomfortable when she heard this, and pulled Ping'er up. Both the master and the servant shed tears. That night, Wang Xifeng opened his mouth and gave Ping'er to Jia Lian as a housekeeper. Jia Lian was so happy. Although Ping'er was not as glamorous as Wang Xifeng, she had a different kind of delicacy in it. Jia Lian didn't notice it when he was fascinated, and the delicate Ping'er's eyes were cold.

At this time, Wang Xifeng, who was alone in the vacant room, also completely cut off her expectations for Jia Lian. If you don't want to, I will leave.

From then on, Wang Xifeng put all her thoughts on the housekeeper, and coaxed Jia's mother to smile, and she seemed to be the most proud of her granddaughters-in-law. After understanding why Mrs. Wang was so forthright, she let go of power.

The husband in front of her is hopeless, her mother-in-law is short-sighted, and her aunt is calculating her. Faced with such a complicated situation, Wang Xifeng's fighting spirit is even higher. She doesn't believe it, and she can't control other people's hearts. Her own is fine, so she gave up on Jia Lian and her stupid self, but she will never allow herself to make mistakes again.
