The Fenghua Years of the Red Chamber

When the news of Wang Xifeng's pregnancy spread, Jia Lian's colleagues and the big families in Pingyuan Mansion wanted to make a move one after another. They came to congratulate them, and some sincerely visited them. To cover it up, they sent two delicate and beautiful girls into the mansion, saying that they were serving Wang Xifeng, but no one knew their real purpose.

The local snakes in Pingyuan Prefecture belong to Wu and Zhou. The Wu family is a salt merchant, and the Zhou family operates water transportation. Household means.

"This Mrs. Wu's family is really not picky. She brought a daughter here. What she said was that she wanted to send her into the mansion as a concubine. It's a decent family with a daughter. Parents don't want to be a decent lady outside. I want to send her out to be a concubine." Jia Yunniang shook her head and said.

"Fifth sister-in-law, why care about these things? This is the usual measurement of businessmen. Who knows if this daughter is real or not?" Wang Xifeng said with a smile. She has been looking forward to this drama for a long time, and there will be more exciting ones in the future.

"Is this daughter true or false?" Jia Yunniang asked in surprise, it was the first time she heard that someone misidentified her daughter.

"Fifth Madam, I heard that those salt merchants specially buy some good-looking girls, ask people to learn how to serve them with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and when those girls grow up, they will give them away for friendship. In order to raise their status, They consider her as a goddaughter, but they are actually the same as us slaves who prostitute themselves, but they are just good-looking." Xiuping explained Jia Yuniang's confusion.

"The most famous one is the Yangzhou Shouma. Those merchants have many methods of wooing and bribing officials, and this is just one of them." Wang Xifeng added with a smile. "Fifth Aunt, wake Yun'er up in the future, don't talk about it." Wang Xifeng reminded that Jia Qiang is now being studied by Jia Lian's side, and Jia Yun is responsible for all household affairs. Naturally, Jia Yun has a greater chance of being tricked. .

"Fifth sister-in-law, Yun'er is not young anymore, do you have a plan for his marriage?" Wang Xifeng asked.

"Yun'er's father left early, relying on the support of his younger sister and daughter-in-law to enter the mansion. As for the candidate for the daughter-in-law, regardless of her background, as long as she is gentle and courteous, there is someone to choose for her niece and daughter-in-law?" Jia Yunniang couldn't guess what Wang Xifeng was thinking, and said Come up with your own ideas.

"Isn't that true? A few days ago, someone inquired about Yun'er's marriage. I said I wanted to ask my aunt what you mean. Yun'er's marriage, do you want to find it here, or do you want to wait until we return to the capital three years later?" Someone asked, so I have a promise." Wang Xifeng asked carefully.

"I'll go back and discuss this with Yun'er." Jia Yunniang couldn't make up her mind for a while.

It's not that Wang Xifeng wants to break up Xiaohong and Jia Yun. The life trajectories of the two are completely different from their previous life. It's hard to say whether they will meet in the future. The key to Jia Yun's marriage depends on the fifth aunt's idea.

Compared with the Wu family who brought their daughter directly, the Zhou family's methods were much more sophisticated. After Wang Xifeng's pregnancy was stable, the two went to a temple outside the city to worship Buddha. When they came back, they passed by the west of the city and saw a group of bullies molesting the two women. They asked for help from the people around them, but no one dared to take care of them. The group of people blocked the road tightly, and the carriage of Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian was forced to stop.

Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian looked out through the car window, and saw two women dressed as little girls, one in blue and one in pink, surrounded by a group of vicious men, and the woman in pink was guarded by the woman in blue. Don't let the bullies approach, it seems that they are constantly pulling and entangled, but if you look closely, you can see that the group of people are obviously bluffing, they only dare to pull the blue-clothed woman, and the pink-clothed woman does not touch a piece of clothing.

"That girl in pink is from some family who escaped. She looks gentle and affectionate. That girl is very loyal. Master, don't rush to the hero to save the beauty, and that delicate beauty will fly away later. "Wang Xifeng leaned lazily on the pillow, caressing her belly with both hands and jokingly said to Jia Lian.

"What are you doing here, don't hurry up and leave." Jia Lian ordered in a cold voice. He could also see that the scene outside was aimed at him, so he ignored it and ordered people to drive him out.

Jia Lian's entourage got off their horses, pushed aside the group of people blocking the way, and made way for Jia Lian and his party to pass.The woman in pink had noticed Jia Lian and his party a long time ago. She was here for Jia Lian, and she cried even more pitifully and charmingly. At first, she thought that Jia Lian would take pity on them and save them. The follow-up plan would come naturally. Unexpectedly, Jia Lian She didn't move, just ordered people to chase her away, and when she wanted to change her strategy and plan to call for help, she was pushed to the side of the road, and the girl in blue who didn't know anything took the opportunity to drag her away, completely ruining the plan.

"Miss, let's go back quickly, if the master finds out that you are not in the mansion, the servant's legs will be broken." The blue-clothed girl dragged the pink-clothed girl back in a hurry.

The girl in pink lowered her head and sulked. If today's matter can't be done, I don't know if her father will be angry. In order to make this hero-saving drama more realistic, she specially brought out a simple and heartfelt girl. Something happened to this girl's loyal protector, I don't know if there is any remedy for her father.

"Let's go back quickly." Thinking of this, the girl in pink hurried back.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the gate of the mansion, they were called by the housekeeper waiting at the door. After a pretense of a joint trial in three sessions, the blue-clothed girl was beaten twenty times for the pretext of instigating her master. Originally, she was only beaten ten times. After the girl begged for mercy, the blue-clothed girl was beaten ten times more.In the end, the head of the Zhou family asked Mrs. Zhou to prepare a generous gift, and the two of them brought the girl in pink to thank her.

Although the performance of this play was not satisfactory, in the end it was Jia Lian who saved her, so the play can still continue.The next day, a group of the Zhou family came to visit. Wang Xifeng had already received the news and was waiting in the inner house.

"Mrs. Zhou, I heard from the girls that you made a special trip to come to thank me. Why is this?" Wang Xifeng asked pretending not to know, she saw Zhou's daughter at a glance and recognized it as the girl in pink from yesterday.

"Yesterday, the little girl was naughty, and she was led by the girl to play outside. Who knew that she was surrounded by a group of bastards who didn't have eyes, and she was able to escape when she met an adult. Today, I specially brought the little girl here to thank you. Weier, why don't you hurry up?" Thank you to Yiren." Mrs. Zhou said gratefully.

"My little girl thanked Yiren. If I hadn't met an adult yesterday, Wei'er wouldn't know what to do?" Zhou Wei hurriedly got up to thank her, with a look of gratitude, and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, telling her grievances.

"Miss Zhou, don't cry. It's chaotic outside. It's better for a girl not to go out casually." Jia Yunniang was kind, seeing Miss Zhou crying sadly, she comforted her. Mouth snickered.

"Mrs. Zhou, Ms. Zhou, I went back to the city yesterday after worshiping the Buddha. I was tired all the way. At that time, I only heard people say that someone was blocking the way, so I ordered them to drive them away. Unexpectedly, Ms. Zhou was saved by accident. You don't need to keep it in mind." Wang Xifeng said straightly.

"Whether it is intentional or not, the adults always saved the little girl, and thanks are due." Mrs. Zhou said with a smile.

The big guys thought that this was the end of it, but within a few days, rumors spread about Jia Lian's heroic rescue of the beauty in Pingyuan Fucheng, and it even became the story of the storyteller in the restaurant, and it also spread to the ears of the magistrate. Joking about the hero saving the beauty, winning the beautiful girl, and asking when to treat guests and concubines.No matter how Jia Lian and the Zhou family explained to avoid suspicion, the rumors intensified, and Mrs. Zhou came to the door crying, begging Wang Xifeng to save her daughter, saying that Master Zhou heard the rumors outside and wanted to send his daughter to be a sister-in-law to save trouble. The reputation of Mr. Jia was ruined.

Mrs. Zhou cried like tears, and kept begging Wang Xifeng to save her daughter. Seeing that she was crying pitifully, Wang Xifeng said: "Mrs. Zhou, please, I saw that Miss Zhou is docile, and I was going to talk to her about marriage. When this happens, poor thing, how can I go to the temple to be an aunt in such a good time, now I can only follow our master, I can only wrong her to enter the house as a concubine, our family rules are strict, and everything will be done according to ours in the future According to the rules of the Jia family, if you agree, it will be settled like this."

"Thank you, Yiren, thank you, Yiren." Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Mrs. Zhou wiped away her tears and said gratefully.

"The rumors are terrible. The Zhou family is really shameless. In order to achieve their goals, they did not give up their own daughter." Wang Xifeng scolded with a smile. Not easy to mix.

"A mere business girl, Grandma, you still can't deal with it." Jia Lian was very annoyed. Jia Lian was a big meat eater, but he was not a soft bun. He wanted someone to force women into him.

"Master, why are you angry? That delicate beauty loves you wholeheartedly. She loves you sincerely. She will marry you even if she is famous. If there is any dissatisfaction with you, it should be me." Wang Xifeng smiled. Seeing Jia Lian angry, knowing the status of Zhou's girl in the future, she scolded with a smile. "How do you plan to welcome Miss Zhou in?"

"Sincere love? Thanks to what you said, a concubine, what kind of ostentation is she, just carried in a sedan chair, it's not worth the trouble, you just take good care of my master's son." Jia Lian said while stroking Wang Xifeng's stomach, he was very He valued the legitimate son in Wang Xifeng's womb, and made the marriage arrangements while speaking.

Wang Xifeng knew how to measure, and did not embarrass the Zhou family. The special person chose a good day and invited several colleagues of Jia Lian to have a wedding wine. Jia Mansion.

The next day, Mrs. Zhou came to pay her respects, and Wang Xifeng said: "Mr. Zhou, when you enter the Jia family, you will become Jia's wife, and you will act in the future to represent the face of the Lord. Our Jia family is a meritorious nobleman, not a small family. There are no rules at all, and I will serve my master in the future, so I can't go out privately like before, causing a farce of a hero saving the beauty." Wang Xifeng accepted Zhou Shijing's tea instruction.

Immediately, Mrs. Zhou's eyes were red, holding back her tears, she raised her head and looked at Jia Lian aggrievedly. Seeing that Jia Lian was sitting beside drinking tea without any response, she lowered her head and said yes, and then served Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian's meal.

Mrs. Zhou is a well-behaved person with deep thoughts. On weekdays, she keeps low in front of Wang Xifeng and does not dare to overstep. She just wants to please Jia Lian so that she can conceive a child while Wang Xifeng is pregnant. Besides, the child said, no matter how daring she was, she would not dare to attack Jia Lian's legitimate son.

Conceived in October, and once she gave birth, Wang Xifeng gave birth to Jia Lian's legitimate son without any twists and turns in the early morning when the vegetation was flourishing and bathed in the rising sun.
