The Hairpin of the Red Chamber

Jia Yucun hadn't contacted Jia She for a long time, and he suddenly came to the door. Jia She didn't know what it was, but now that the government and the people are different, it's not easy for him to ask others to invite him in.

Now that Jia Yucun has become a big official, he can't help but speak with a bit of an official accent, briefly describing the coldness and warmth, and then said: "My brother came today because there was an imperial merchant Xia's family in the city who wanted to sue the son for trespassing. His family's house has offended his daughter. Now, although the girl of that family failed to commit suicide, she is sick on the bed, dead or alive. I saw that it was from your house, so I asked someone to suppress the case first, and I came here to ask Brother Shi, Is this true, or false?"

Jia She said embarrassingly: "He is a merchant, and he wants to blackmail us, so he can't do it properly."

Jia Yucun said with a smile: "Brother Shi has a relationship with me, do you still want to tell me these nonsense?"

Jia Amnesty also laughed and said: "It's okay to tell you, I've always been a bit of a flirt, I'm used to hanging out, and I'm easy to be teased by others, I probably confused his door with some other building and broke in by mistake. It wasn't intentional, I actually asked him, and when he saw that the family didn't look like an insider, he came out by himself, and he never saw the daughter of that family."

Jia Yucun frowned and said, "Although it is so, it is the melon fields and plums that have hurt people's reputation."

Jia She said: "He is making such a fuss just to blackmail our house. At worst, he will pay some money. Otherwise, is it really possible for my Lian'er to marry a merchant girl?"

Jia Yucun said: "Since his family is an imperial merchant, is there still a shortage of money? Taking a step back, with the current family business of Shixiong, I am afraid that the money may not be affordable."

Jia She said angrily, "Are you looking down on me?"

When Jia Yucun saw that he was angry, he didn't speak, but stroked his beard and smiled. Jia Amnesty got angry for a while, but he didn't care much. He sat back, leaned forward, and said to Jia Yucun, "If it's a price, how much is it? "

Jia Yucun stretched out his hand and twirled his five fingers, Jia Amnesty frowned and remained silent. After thinking for a long time, Fang said again: "What if... you take her in as a concubine?"

Jia Yucun smiled and said: "She is an only daughter, and the family has a lot of money, how can she be willing to be a concubine?" With a light cough, she approached Jia She and said, "Brother Shi and I are not outsiders, so I also dare to say something——in your house With the current family background, I am afraid that if you marry, people will think that you are making the young master high."

Jia Amnesty immediately burst into anger, clenched his fists and said, "He's a merchant, how dare he bully me so far?"

Jia Yucun hurriedly said: "Brother, don't be angry, just listen to my words-your mansion is only in a temporary disaster, and there will be a recovery in the future. You and my family know this very well, but people outside don't know it. Such a short-sighted villain, just thinks that the noble family has lost power, does not take this century-old family status seriously, and relies on his own family status, so he is arrogant. After kissing Xungui, there is no need to haggle over with these villains, the most urgent thing is to deal with the immediate matter first."

Jia She said angrily: "In your opinion, do you really want my family to marry her daughter back? Don't talk about family status, Lian'er has already married the daughter of Prince Teng, the governor of the nine provinces. Can we divorce this daughter-in-law again and marry a merchant girl with drums and drums?"

Jia Yucun said with a smile: "In my opinion, this is not a good idea."

Jia She said with a livid face, "That's all nine provinces!"

Jia Yucun said: "It's the Wang family - dare to ask Brother Shi, where is the Wang family, the wife of the young master?"

Jia She said: "The little one is naughty, let her go back to her mother's house for a while."

Jia Yucun smiled and said, "Are you being naughty for a while, or did you ask her to take her home?"

Jia She said displeased: "Your brother is pressing you every step of the way, as if you are helping the Xia family."

Jia Yucun said: "what did you say, brother, who is Xia's family, and who is brother, I have been blind for several lifetimes, and I will not help him. Don't worry, brother, let me tell you slowly ——There are rumors in Beijing that Mrs. Wang asked her family to take her home because she couldn't bear the work at home, so I dare to ask Brother Shi, is this true or false?"

Hearing his light words, Jia Amnesty reversed black and white, squinted his eyes and said slowly: "It's also the bitch who is too eager for quick success."

Jia Yucun said: "Brother has lost his title, and the family has no source. The honorable lady is diligent and thrifty in managing the family. This is the meaning of the question. Everyone in the family is convinced. She is the only one who can't bear such grievances. Everyone knows that the two mansions are not decent, and they are unworthy."

When he didn't say anything, Jia She only felt that Sister Feng was wronged, but when he said it, Jia She secretly agreed with her words in her heart, but said on her face: "She is from a wealthy family, she has been arrogant and indulgent since she was a child, and she can't stand wronged. It's also natural. After all, our family wronged her."

Jia Yucun said with a smile: "As the saying goes, marry a chicken and follow the chicken, marry a dog and follow the dog. When a woman marries a man, she naturally obeys her husband's family. If the husband's family is more expensive, then the wife is more expensive than the husband. When the husband's family is in trouble, it is natural to share joys and sorrows." However, Mrs. Wang not only did not understand the hardships of the family, but publicized the difficult situation of the family everywhere, and returned home without authorization, and did not return for more than a month. Even if such a daughter-in-law humbly begged to come back from the noble family, I am afraid that getting along with her in the future will be very sad. It's better to divorce her earlier and marry Xianliang."

Jia She said: "It's a pity that her father has known me for many years, I really can't bear it!"

Seeing that he was moved, Jia Yucun knew that he was afraid of the prince's rise to power, so he smiled and said, "Brother Wang is in charge of the word, even if Mrs. Wang came here in person, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to say anything, and his own sister is also brother's." Brother and sister, the concubine Yuan in the palace is his direct niece, how can he really tear himself apart and do something to his elder brother? In the current situation, even if the family keeps this marriage, there is probably a rift with him already. No matter how difficult it is, it's better to break the marriage, and the two live in peace, since the Wang family has become rich, it may not be remembered by the family."

Jia Amnesty still refused to agree, and Jia Yucun said again: "Although the Xia family is a businessman, it is also a businessman - he has no heirs in his family, so there is only one daughter, no matter how capable she is, she can only rely on men. If she were to marry into the noble mansion, wouldn't Mr. Ling be in charge of those connections of the Xia family after all? This would also relieve the lack of the mansion."

Jia Amnesty laughed and said, "According to what you said, this marriage is a match made in heaven?"

Jia Yucun smiled and said nothing.

When Jia Amnesty saw his smile, he felt it was an eyesore, and said with pride, "This matter is very important, let me think about it for a few days."

Jia Yucun saw that he had already promised, so he didn't force it, so he left with a smile.

After Wang Ziteng met Sister Feng, Wang Ren refused to say anything. Sister Feng was anxious and asked people to go out to inquire about the news in turn.Ping'er lay in the house for half a day, then came back to serve her personally, seeing her uneasy, he couldn't do without warm words of comfort, and he himself was always on the lookout, lest he miss the news.

On that day, I suddenly heard the young man in front of me ask someone to say, "The master has seen Jia Yucun." Ping'er was overjoyed and came back with a smile.

Ping'er screened back to the left and right, and whispered: "Miss, do you still remember the scholar who entrusted the second master of that mansion before? It was Miss Lin's master, who later became Yingtian Mansion."

Sister Feng said: "Why don't I remember? Jia Laoer came to ask me last year, saying that he had seen that man go out to be an official for several years, and his family wealth was getting richer day by day, and the annual rituals were several times richer than in previous years. He was greedy when he saw it, and asked me if I would also entrust his uncle to find a real job. I told him not to think about it, the good master will not stay in Beijing, he insists on going outside to practice, not to mention whether he can make money, What if the stepmother's youngest son snatches the ready-made title! That person was later heard to have been promoted to the capital?"

Ping'er said with a smile: "I have become a Beijing official, and now I am on good terms with our master. Last time, after the master talked to the girl, he called him to talk. I think our master has nothing to do with him, just for It's something in the mansion, and now he's coming to the door again, I'm afraid he's here to return his life."

Sister Feng hurriedly said, "Did you ask him how he looked?"

Ping'er said: "He came to our house because of his face. I heard that after he left, the master asked his wife to go, and the wife ordered the toothmaid to buy a girl."

Sister Feng said happily, "That's it!" After walking a few steps, she said with a smile, "I've got rid of it from then on."

Seeing that she was happy, Ping'er also pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "This matter is over, the girl can have a good sleep."

Sister Feng didn't think much about it, she just smiled and said, "Not only me, but you can also feel relaxed and relaxed."

Ping'er just laughed.

That night, Sister Feng went to bed early and asked Ping'er to accompany her.She was happy, and she dragged Ping'er to chatter and chatter.Ping'er listened with a smile, occasionally answered her, stroked Sister Feng with one hand, and kneaded her back for her. Sister Feng didn't notice it at first, but gradually her mouth became dry. Embarrassed, she was about to send Ping'er to the outside room, but she was reluctant to accompany her like this. After hesitating, Ping'er pinched her feet as if nothing had happened. The two of them were already familiar with this matter, but tonight, Sister Feng didn't know why. It was hot outside, and Sister Feng tossed and turned several times. Ping'er saw that her expression was uncertain, and asked softly: "What's the matter, girl? But what's wrong, do you want to lie on your stomach and ask me to rub it?" Her voice seemed extraordinarily soft. Yes, every word and every word, so that Sister Feng unconsciously let out a soft hum, but she still refused to answer.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Ping'er said again: "I belong to the girl. If the girl wants to ask me to do something, just tell me clearly. If you are so coy, does the girl dislike me?"

Sister Feng coughed and said, "No, I'm just...cough..." Suddenly she realized that she was the master, and there was no need to explain it to Ping'er. After going out, he said with a wooden face: "Do you still remember that night when I asked you to serve me?"

Ping'er deliberately said: "Didn't I serve the girl every day?"

Sister Feng coughed again, and said, "It's just like that."

Ping'er only said: "What is that like?"

Sister Feng kicked the quilt away in a hurry, lay on the bed wide open, closed her eyes and said, "Don't pretend to be stupid, I asked you to take care of me, so come and do me at once!"

Ping'er smiled lightly, then straightened his face quickly, and obediently used the kung fu of adjusting his tongue and making his lips.
