Lin Jiajingyu's Counterattack in the Red Chamber

"Madam, why are you here? It's noisy here, don't disturb your brain."

Aunt Zhou stood on the steps with low eyebrows and her eyes were pleasing to the eye, her usual wooden face was a little blushing, she could vaguely discern the beautiful color of her youth, and under the shade of the red lanterns hanging on the eaves, she had a different taste.

I didn't pay much attention to it before, I didn't expect that she really has two points of color, no wonder the second wife has been worried about her childless!Looking at it like this, I'm afraid it was just...

Wang Xifeng withdrew her scrutinizing gaze, lowered her head, slightly hooked the corners of her mouth, and glanced sideways at Mrs. Wang's face inadvertently.

It's hard to say, when it comes to controlling the backyard and the entire Rongguo Mansion, Mrs. Wang can definitely be ranked second.When it comes to Wang Xifeng, who wouldn't say shrewd and capable?But when it comes to controlling the inner house, Wang Xifeng is far behind her aunt.

Jia Zheng had four sons, the eldest son Jia Zhu died young, and the elder brother born to Aunt Zhou did not grow up, leaving only the concubine Jia Huan and the legitimate son Jia Baoyu.Jia Huan, who was born to Aunt Zhao, was cultivated to be cowardly and despicable, or even if Jia Huan was very capable and willing to make progress, in Jia Zheng's heart, the one who could inherit the family business in the future would probably be the only one who could only succeed after the death of the eldest son Jia Zhu. It was Jia Baoyu.When talking about the second master's son inside and outside the Rongguo Mansion, everyone probably only thinks of Jia Baoyu who was born with jade.If there is no credit for Mrs. Wang, who would believe it?

Now there are only two aunts Jia Zheng passed Minglu, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao.Both of them are good-looking, but it's a pity that Aunt Zhou has become like this since her brother died. Even if Aunt Zhou wanted to make a fuss, she still had to think about her future.And Aunt Zhao's daughter, Tanchun, was raised by Mrs. Wang's side, not for anyone else, but for Tanchun by Mrs. Wang's side. Aunt Zhao did not dare to add trouble to Mrs. Wang, let alone Jia Baoyu who needed to be by her side in the future. Live Jia Huan.The depravity of the concubine will not hinder his son's future future, and the aunt is also very obedient, not daring to create trouble for herself.Mrs. Wang's life is really smooth.When the days are free, I have the mind to worry about other things, so Lin Jingyu has to do everything possible to think about how to keep the capital for herself and the little girl to live and work.

Speaking of which, there is another story.

One day, Mother Shen explained to Daiyu how to salute with the families in the capital. At that time, she used the Rongguo Mansion as a comparison, and inevitably explained the preferences of the masters of the Rongguo Mansion based on the situation of the Rongguo Mansion.At that time, Nanny Shen said, "Girl, you see that the second wife takes care of the inner house very well, and the concubines and aunts are very responsible, so this ornament that symbolizes the harmony of the house cannot be sent to the second wife's heart." '

Before Mother Shen could say what kind of gift could be sent to Mrs. Wang's heart, Lin Jingyu, who came to listen while soothing her mood, answered the sentence very smoothly. 'It's because Aunt Zhou and Brother Huan are too worry-free that my aunt has the time to worry about your dowry. Lin Jingyu saw that Nanny Shen frowned, and thinking about it, he immediately realized that what he said was extremely inappropriate, and he had promised not to interfere with Nanny Shen before, so he hurriedly added a sentence before Nanny Shen admonished, 'This proves that no one in the inner courtyard dares to make a fuss, so you have time to make other ideas. '.

Nanny Shen and Daiyu looked at each other silently for a while.

Turn the words back.Wang Xifeng is much weaker in this aspect. Before Yanliu gave birth to brother Jue, Jia Lian had only one child, sister Qiao.Jia Lian was the only head of the Rongguo Mansion, and Wang Xifeng was almost called the head of the house.I don't know how many young daughter-in-laws who are talkative and talkative are drunk and whisper to the people they make friends with. Although the old lady is not as good as the second grandmother, but after a hundred years, the old lady can enter the ancestral grave of the dead ghost's family with peace of mind.At least someone threw a pot for my dead ghost after he died!

Wang Xifeng was still able to be the eldest daughter-in-law safely. It was luck that Jia Amnesty didn't care much and had little contact with the inner house.And Mrs. Xing, who knows the power of it, is the stepmother, and Mrs. Xing and Jia Lian are not close.Second, it depends on the identity of the daughter of the Wang family. Jia Shi Wang Xue's four families are all connected, and now only Wang Xifeng's father, Prince Teng, holds the real power among the four families.Otherwise, even if Wang Xifeng was able to make porridge without rice, he would probably end up being sent back to her natal family.One must know that there are seven females, but Wang Xifeng has three.No heir, jealousy is the second.There are three kinds of unfilial piety: no offspring is the greatest, plus unfilial parents.

Generally speaking, as both daughters of the Wang family, Mrs. Wang is better at being a daughter-in-law than Wang Xifeng.

Therefore, how could Mrs. Wang not understand what Wang Xifeng could guess.Besides, after all, Mrs. Wang has eaten so many years of extra food. How could she not know what Aunt Zhou and Jia Zheng were doing before when she could see it at a glance.It's okay to say here, in front of so many servants today, is Aunt Zhou's words insinuating that she treats Aunt harshly?Or, are you still saying that her usual compassion is done?Furthermore, these are not only for the women present, maybe they are also for the master in the house?

This is bright eye drops.Mrs. Wang can't take two steps forward by herself. She looked at Aunt Zhou whose face was like spring flowers shining with fire in her eyes, and said with a sneer, "What do you mean, do you think this place is noisy? I will give you a quiet place tomorrow." Some courtyards, the small courtyard to the east is very quiet."

There is a courtyard on the east side, where the old lady's favored wife and concubine lived, but for some reason, the aunt hung a beam in this courtyard.The old nanny who served in the mansion was vague and spread some words, saying that when the aunt died, the child in her belly was obviously pregnant, and the appearance was very likely to be a brother.From the point of view of dealing with the concubine born to the favored aunt, the number of girls from the Wang family is obviously not as good as that of the historian's girl, so no one in Rongguo Mansion can compare to Jia Mu in terms of secret methods and controlling the inner house.Just looking at the two brothers Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, now there is no concubine brother or sister, you can tell a thing or two.Anyway, since then, the place has been very evil. Although it has been specially renovated several times later, everyone thinks that place is unlucky, and it has been left unused for a long time.As far as the east courtyard is concerned, there is nothing like that place that is the cleanest.

Aunt Zhou's pretty face turned pale, and she turned into a wooden figure again, as if she didn't say the insinuation of Mrs. Wang's fake appearance at the beginning.

"What? Mute?"

"The madam beat the slaves."

Mrs. Wang became even more angry, and looked at Aunt Zhou who had her head buried deeply with a sneer, "What's wrong with you, anyway, the temple in my place is too small to hold your big Buddha."

"It's late at night, who is your anger directed at? Ah—?"

Jia Zheng was neatly dressed in a middle coat and came out with a long gown over it. He was holding the hem of the gown before he heard Mrs. Wang's words. He was woken up in the middle of the night by someone. pimple.What's more, Jia Zhengzheng and Aunt Zhou's quarrel was interrupted when they were in high spirits, and a wave of depression gathered in their hearts.And Jia Zheng was someone who didn't need to hold back his anger, so he just choked out.

Mrs. Wang was about to continue preaching to Aunt Zhou, when she was startled by Jia Zhengman's angry question, she hurriedly restrained her tone and expression, and said kindly, "Master, you think too much."

Jia Zheng looked around at the large group of hula-la, and sneered: "It's no wonder that people think too much. The mistress rushed to the aunt's house with such a big pole, and said there was nothing wrong with it." Who would believe it? The inner house is restless, you think my recent life in the court is too peaceful, don't you?"

The more he talked, the higher the tone became, until the end it was almost questioning.

Mrs. Wang's expression didn't tense, she changed on the spot.Although she and Jia Zheng, a young couple, were not in perfect agreement, they respected each other as guests.Ever since she gave birth to a baby bump for the Jia family, Jia Zheng always cared about giving her face in front of outsiders.But it was unexpected that Jia Zheng would directly embarrass her in front of so many servants, and even involve the outside world

Looking at Aunt Zhou who was standing behind Jia Zheng with a worried expression on her face, Mrs. Wang almost carried her back.Who wants you to pretend to be kind and pretend to be like this?She pinched herself so hard that Mrs. Wang didn't ask Jia Zheng harshly on the spot.After coming here for so many years, she couldn't believe that she could do anything to her for such a thing.Suppressing the anger in her heart, closing her eyes and panting for a while, Mrs. Wang felt that her heart didn't hurt so much.His complexion eased, Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Zheng aggrievedly and said:

"Master, I have worked so hard for this family for so many years, don't say credit, hard work can always end up with one? Today, the master's complaints, have I come all these years in vain?"

The more Mrs. Wang talked, the more she felt aggrieved, but she could bear it only because she thought that there were so many women and maids present, and it would be difficult to get angry on the spot.

Jia Zheng is a hypocrite, and in front of outsiders, he often pretends to be a harmonious husband and wife with Mrs. Wang, respecting each other as guests. If it wasn't for being woken up in the middle of the night and being squeezed out by his colleagues these days, he would have been suffocated. She was ashamed in front of the servants and Wang Xifeng.Now Mrs. Wang is showing weakness and giving him a step, and he will follow it down.

"I'm just complaining and calling out your two cars for nothing, that's all, I don't care, you can weigh it yourself."

Mrs. Wang reckoned that even though the master didn't say anything now, when he thought about it afterwards, he felt very uncomfortable.Just now the master has already talked to this point, if she continues to answer the words, it will seem a bit unreasonable, and if she says the following words, it will appear to be mediocre.She must not hit this juncture!After making up her mind, Mrs. Wang quickly winked at Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng stood dumbfounded with her head down, just like another Aunt Zhou, as if she didn't understand what Mrs. Wang meant at all.Seeing that Jia Zheng's face was a little uneasy, and Mrs. Wang was going to go all out to speak, Wang Xifeng took the words slowly: "Second Master, I can't blame my wife for this." After a pause, Wang Xifeng continued: My nephew and daughter-in-law also explained the reason to the second master, but don't let the second master not know what's inside and wrong the good man."

"I want to hear what kind of grievances there are in this."

Wang Xifeng considered his tone, cast an unpredictable sideways glance at Mrs. Wang who had calmed down, and replied respectfully: "The lady before lost two bottles of rose water, nothing else is worth it, it's just that these two Ping is still filial to Brother Bao, so I need to take care of my wife."

Mrs. Wang was just listening. She and Wang Xifeng didn't understand what was lost when they used to throw away precious objects as a cover. Although she was not there when Wang Xifeng sent people to search the yard, she still knew a general idea. .There were those unruly and crazy ones and the flattering ones who asked what was lost, but they were all vaguely dismissed by the housekeeper who inspected the yard.Now that Wang Xifeng clearly pointed out the specific objects, she was caught off guard. She was not afraid of someone secretly inquiring and checking, but she still didn't believe that someone would dare to come to her and make jokes.only······

Mrs. Wang glanced worriedly at Jia Zheng, who was looking down. Why did Feng girl involve Baoyu?The master is usually very strict with Baoyu, wishing that Baoyu would stay in the study all day long and study hard.But Baoyu is just at the age of fun, how can he sit still?Isn't this bringing trouble to Baoyu for nothing?

Sure enough, when he heard Wang Xifeng say this, Jia Zheng snorted coldly: "That evil person will spend more time on this."

Mrs. Wang glanced at Wang Xifeng reproachfully, and hurriedly said: "Master, Baoyu is young, how can he compare with you in terms of prudence? Besides, Baoyu's filial piety is everywhere, isn't it?"

Mrs. Wang's blatant flattery, Jia Zheng was very pleased.Although his face was still ugly, his tone finally softened. "It's the greatest filial piety for him to read two more sentences!" After a pause, Jia Zheng sighed: "Look at that child Jingyu, not to mention his fame at a young age. Cao, even the few days when I was a guest at the house, I can't wait to leave the book. After all, it was my brother-in-law's good luck, and Baoyu was spoiled by you!"

What Jia Zheng said was almost blatantly said, you are not as good at teaching children as my sister.Jia Zheng's sentence happened to hit Mrs. Wang's lung tube.

She has been compared with Jia Min since she was still in the boudoir, Yunying, before she was married. Her father and brother chose Xinke Tanhua Lin Hai after thousands of choices. A match made in heaven for the princess of the Duke's Mansion.Later, Jia Min's elder brother married again, one was a sister-in-law who was waiting to be married, and the other was a bride who had no roots at all. In her husband's house, how could the new daughter-in-law compare to the sister-in-law who was about to go out?So when she set the rules in front of her mother-in-law and was shameless in front of her husband, she just watched how Jia Min was cherished by the Jia family.Afterwards, Lin Ruhai treated Jia Min like a day for decades, and every noble lady in the capital sighed that Jia Min was lucky.Jia Min had been pressing on her head before she died, Jia Min was dead, her son was pressing on her son's head, how could she swallow this breath.

Besides, when the eldest girl was still at home, the old lady felt deserted and took the eldest girl to her to be raised. Although it was her and the eldest girl's dignity, how could the pain of separation between mother and daughter be so delicious?She endured it.After a few years of idleness, she gave birth to Zhu Er, who was also a perfect child. Unfortunately, she studied too hard and was tortured to death, so she passed away at a young age.Afterwards, she had suffered so much from the old lady's anger before she gave birth to a lucky brother. Just as she was thinking that the hard work had finally come to an end, before she was happy for two days, Baoyu's residence was placed in the old lady's yard.Usually, when she said a few words about Baoyu, the old lady would protect her tightly.If Baoyu was by her side, and she said Baoyu was spoiled by her, she would admit it.But now, even if she wants to get used to Baoyu, has the old lady given her a chance?

Mrs. Wang spat in her heart, if you have the ability, you go to the old lady and say that it is you who have spoiled the good Baoyu! .After cursing a few words from the bottom of her heart, she felt relieved, and then Mrs. Wang answered, "Sir, it's my fault. Baoyu often acts filial piety around the old lady. When I think of Baoyu, I often play jokes in front of the old lady. The old lady Also take it easy, so you don't put in a lot of hard work."

Jia Zheng also knew how his mother protected his useless son. Even if his son could not get much favor from his mother, how could he count on his daughter-in-law?Jia Zheng opened his mouth, after all, he still didn't have the guts to complain about his old mother.

Mrs. Wang secretly hated her husband and wife with Jia Zheng for so many years. In Jia Zheng's heart, she was still not as good as Jia Min who died young, so she kept silent and let Jia Zheng dry.

It's okay for Jia Zheng to be bored and embarrassed outside, but when he returned to the mansion, his wife dared to put on a face for him, Jia Zheng felt very uncomfortable.Then he compared his son who was always in Nevis with the son of his colleague who became a weapon, and his heart was full of anger.Not to mention far away, just comparing his cousin and nephew who lives in his mansion with his own son, it is really shameless to face his ancestors.

In terms of measuring people's hearts, Mrs. Wang sent Wang Xifeng more than just one piece or two, especially when Wang Xifeng worked hard.The most uncomfortable thing in this world is not that there is a ball of anger in the heart, but that the ball of air has to be blocked all the time.As the grandma in charge of the entire family, she was deeply moved.Guessing that the heat was about to come, Wang Xifeng opened his mouth to explain without haste.

"Second Master, this matter looks simple, but the doorway inside is complicated. Today the thief dares to reach into the wife's room, and tomorrow she will have the courage to take the old lady's things. Today she took a bottle or two of roses Lu sees that the master has not been dealt with, and she will wonder if the master will turn it into a small matter and let her go if she takes the key to the warehouse with the private seal tomorrow? Won't someone follow suit? Besides, the wife dared to stretch out her hand in the room, so the girls below are afraid that they will lose almost all their things. The girls are thin-skinned, so it's not easy to publicize this matter. I just endured it. But this evil wind must be suppressed, so I used this incident to beat all the servants in the whole house."

Jia Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, bear with it?Can't swallow.Send it out?I don't know how it happened.The woman in charge couldn't help being curious, and her half-closed eyes sizing up Aunt Zhou and Jia Zheng, who were disheveled, added fuel to the fire.After holding back for quite a while, Jia Zheng said in a tone that he felt had become normal: "Then you just go and punish others yourself. What's the point of being noisy in your own yard in the middle of the night?"

Wang Xifeng glanced at Mrs. Wang who couldn't find a suitable entry point to speak, and couldn't help but feel happy.Auntie, who is also a daughter of the Wang family, just don't know whether the Mammy Liu who taught you is better, or the one who taught your niece is the best?

"Second master, except for the old lady's yard, the other yards in the whole mansion have been turned over, and some new things have really been found out. Those who use the name of the master to yell, pass things privately, and steal things from the mansion. Those who went out to pawn, and those who saw the young girl's face, borrowed the master's pearl hairpin jewelry to gamble, etc., etc., I don't know how many." Seeing that Jia Zheng seemed to listen, Wang Xifeng quietly told Wang Madam set:

"Although the effect is remarkable, the masters in the mansion will inevitably feel that they can't get up and down. No matter how the servants don't know what to do, it is the master's face. If the whole house is overturned, if a single courtyard is not overturned, not only the servants Knowing how to gossip, the masters will probably mutter to themselves in private, not to mention borrowing from the wife's yard. The so-called melon fields and plums are talking about this reason. The wife thought about turning over the yard. For these things, you can beat and beat the servants along the way, lest those servants forget their duty as servants. If the yard is clear and orderly, it will also express their opinion to the masters in the whole mansion, and also make a good example for the servants along the way."

"Since it's just for show, I'll do it tomorrow morning. After all the tossing around this big night, is it sincerely keeping people awake?"

"Second Master, all the yards in this whole mansion were turned over today, and only one place was left to wait until the next day. Even if there was nothing in the first place, it will be changed when you leave the gate of this yard."

Mrs. Wang saw that Wang Xifeng had explained all the reasons to Jia Zheng, and Jia Zheng's ugly face from being quarreled seemed to have improved, so she answered, "Young girl Feng has been busy all day. , I can't let her get into trouble with me, can I? Anyway, it will take about a stick of incense, and the master will bear it after thinking about the girls in the mansion and the relatives who are borrowing in the mansion."

This is an excellent statement. Others say that the second grandma of Rongguo Mansion is a person who can speak well, but the second wife of Rongguo Mansion is the one who can speak black and white.Wang Xifeng twisted the veil hard, saying that she is smart and has a delicate heart, but now she feels that she is a fool for others to laugh at.She thought to herself, the two of them are the daughters of the Wang family, and their feet are not stable in this Rongguo mansion, so they should be in the same breath.Now it can be regarded as seeing clearly what it means to be heartbroken.

She suddenly remembered the words her mother told her on the eve of her wedding: Feng girl, you have to remember that being a daughter-in-law in her husband's family and being a girl in her mother's family are two different things.Since ancient times, apart from the royal family, there has never been a head mother who married her two daughters to two brothers.
