Xing Xiuyan's Life in the Red Mansion

Most of the blueprints of the toys that Xing Xiuyan drew before have been almost done, except for one slide, which is more complicated, and the craftsmen are still studying it.Now what Murong Ling is playing with are the building blocks drawn by Xing Xiuyan. Xing Xiuyan said it in a general way, but the craftsmen are unique, and the building blocks they design have the characteristics of traditional Chinese architecture.Murong Ling fell in love with him at first sight, and now whenever he has time, he starts playing.

Xing Xiuyan asked someone to spread a blanket on the open space in the middle of the yard, and put a small kang table on it. Murong Ling built building blocks on the kang table, and Xing Xiuyan sat beside him doing needlework. Xing Liu felt uncomfortable sitting on the ground, so he moved it. Xiao Zhuzi sat under the tree and took care of the soles of his shoes.

At this time, Xing Zhong came over with a hoe, cleared his throat, Xing Liu raised his head, Xing Zhong winked at her, Xing Liu slapped his head, yes, how could she forget this? up.Quickly nodded to Xing Zhong, expressing that he knew and reassuring him.

Xing Zhong nodded, and then took another look at Xing Xiuyan who bowed his head to do needlework, with a flash of warmth in his eyes, and then walked away with a hoe on his shoulder.It's useless for him to be a father. The good life in the family is due to his daughter's hard work. Now she has to refuse such a good marriage for the sake of the old couple, which makes them embarrassing.If Yuping hadn't told them quietly, maybe this girl would still want to hide it from them!What a wonderful marriage, how could Yan'er not want to!The old couple discussed it for a few nights, and they both felt that this shop would disappear after passing this village, so they had to persuade Yan'er well.

Xing Liushi saw that there was no one else around, only two or three maids standing far away waiting for orders, so she cleared her throat, "Yan'er, there is something I want to talk to you about."

Xing Xiu didn't lift his cigarette butt, "Mother, what can you say?"

"It's your marriage!" Xing Liu said, Xing Xiuyan was stunned, and accidentally poked the needle on her finger, and the dark red blood immediately soaked out.Xing Xiuyan stuffed her finger into her mouth and sucked it twice. Xing Liu came over with distress, took a look at her finger, and said angrily, "Why are you so careless."

Xing Xiuyan didn't care about her fingers, and asked nervously, "Mother, have you heard something?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Xing Liu sighed, "If I don't ask, are you planning to hide it from me and your father and not tell us?" Seeing that Xing Xiuyan lowered her head and said nothing, Mrs. Xing Liu sighed, " You kid, you have your own ideas since you were young, I know that. But how could you hide such a big matter as your marriage from us! If Yuping hadn't leaked the word, I'm afraid your father and I will be killed by you In the dark."

Xing Xiuyan bowed her head and remained silent, she knew that it was Yuping who accidentally said something, it was clearly instructed by Yun Qingran, otherwise, how could a person as cautious as Yuping make such a mistake?

"I know what you're worried about. You're worried that we are too different from the Hou's mansion. How do you say that, Qi Dafei, right? But my child, that's Lord Hou. People like us can get the favor of Lord Hou. , What a glorious thing this is. Your father and I dare not even think about it. I know what your concerns are. First, you are worried that our family is too different from Lord Hou, and that we are not worthy of the Hou family. Second On the other hand, you are also worried that Master Hou was born in a wealthy family, and you also have the faults of a wealthy family, and you are worried that the relationship between husband and wife will not be good in the future. Three, you are worried about your father and me, and that we will feel uncomfortable. But, Yaner, this first, Although our family is not worthy of the Hou Mansion, this marriage was not proposed by our family. It was the intention of the Marquis and the consent of the eldest princess. They came to us. There are hundreds of women in this family begging, what are you afraid of! Two, even if you don't marry Lord Hou, just find a poor family and marry him, can you guarantee that he will never let you down?"

When Xing Xiuyan heard this, she couldn't help but raised her head and said, "If he fails me, I will keep my heart and live my own life."

Mrs. Xing Liu couldn't help but patted her, "You child! What are you talking about? But, since you have thought of this, there is nothing you can't let go of. Most men in this world are similar, since the results are all the same. Same thing, why don't you pick the one you like, with a good family background? Besides, how good-looking this Marquis is! Since they all have the same result, why don't you pick a better one!"

Xing Xiuyan looked at Xing Liushi with some surprise, never thought that her mother's consciousness is so advanced?After she said that sentence just now, she was ready to be scolded by her mother.Who would have thought that her mother would not care at all.

"Mother, don't you think my ideas are too deviant?" Xing Xiuyan asked.

"What's the matter, it should be like this. It's not easy to be a woman in this world. Of course, we have to treat ourselves better. If he treats you very well, you treat him seven points. You have to leave a little bit for yourself. If he treats you badly, we just keep our own life and let him go! Bah, what do I tell you what to do! You are wrong to be so pessimistic. There are also couples, look at me and your father, here is a ready-made example! The third, I know, you are worried that our family will climb into the marriage of the Hou Mansion, and your father and I will feel uncomfortable in the future. People joke that your father and I are greedy for wealth and honor. Yaner, your father and I have no other requirements, only one thing, as long as you live well. Selflessness and fearlessness, what are we afraid of! As for others, your father and I only I don’t care! We are not money, and we expect everyone to like it! You are thinking too much.” Xing Liu said.

After hearing this, Xing Xiuyan was very moved, "Mother!"

Xing Liushi looked at her deeply, "Yan'er, Lord Hou is a very good candidate no matter how you look at it. However, father and mother can't force you, it depends on your own wishes in the end." I don't want to. I'm just telling you what your father and I think, you don't have to think about your parents, you can do everything according to your heart." Xing Liushi said cautiously.

Xing Xiuyan lowered her head, "I see, mother, let me think about it again."

Seeing her daughter's state of mind, Xing Liu knew that she must be interested in Yun Qingran, otherwise she would have rejected her long ago.Mrs. Xing Liu didn't think it was a kind of private giving and receiving. In her opinion, nothing was more important than her daughter's happiness.Therefore, he looked at Xing Xiuyan with a smile.

In the evening, Miao Yu came to Songbai Courtyard with a smile on her face, and saw Murong Ling playing with flashcards on the kang, and asked a few words casually, which made Ling'er roll her eyes, and she let him go.

Xing Xiuyan smiled and took a cup of tea, "Why are you teasing him? He has only been studying for a few days? It's already pretty good to be able to sit down and read."

Miaoyu took the tea with a smile, took a sip, and before Xing Xiuyan asked, she raised her head proudly, "You don't know, today is really fun!"

Xing Xiuyan's heart moved, "What? Did you see the Jia family?"

"Yes, the old lady and the second wife came from the Jia family! When they saw me, their faces were really pretty! But Jia Taijun really deserves to be the Dinghai Shenzhen of the Jia family. After seeing me, his face changed instantly. Afterwards, it's like nothing happened, but her second wife has such a pretty face." Miao Yu laughed. "It's strange to say that most of the people brought their daughters and nieces to the flower viewing party, except for the Jia family. Only two old ladies came, and none of the girls from the Jia family came."

Xing Xiuyan lowered her head and thought for a while, "Usually, although she doesn't take others with her, the second wife still takes sister Lin out a few times. Besides, Lian's second sister-in-law will also be with her. This time only the old lady and the second wife came. Is there any other reason!"

Miaoyu said disdainfully: "I also know that Mrs. Jia is such a shrewd person. Since the eldest princess held the flower viewing banquet, she probably guessed the same. The reason why she only brought the second wife and no other people, One is probably to frighten the second wife, after all, she had planned on me at the beginning. The other is that they are afraid that they are not deep in the city, and they will reveal something, so it would be bad for people to guess what it is."

Xing Xiuyan thinks about it too.

As expected, the facts were similar to what Miaoyu had imagined. On the carriage back home, Mother Jia closed her eyes and said nothing, while Mrs. Wang was in a state of panic all day long. "..."

"Shut up!" Jia Mu suddenly opened her eyes and glared, "Don't say such things again. Miaoyu has already contracted the disease and died. There is no such person as Miaoyu in this world. You just remember it honestly." .”

Mrs. Wang's face turned blue and pale, and it took a long time to return to normal, "Yes, my wife knows." Regardless of whether she is Yun Yanran or Miaoyu, she does not want to see this person again in the future.The eldest princess is the younger sister of the sage, and she can speak well in front of the sage, and the Yongping Hou Mansion is very powerful, so I can't offend them and cause trouble for Yuanchun.

Mother Jia glanced at Mrs. Wang, convinced that she would not have any more confused thoughts, then sighed deeply, and closed her eyes again. It seemed that she was really old. Since the eldest princess recognized Miaoyu, It must have been done.And she took Miaoyu away calmly, she must have been dissatisfied with the Jia family's wait-and-see attitude.Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and as long as there is a noble concubine, the Jia family will never fall.Although Jia Mu comforted herself in this way, she still had an ominous premonition in her heart. She thought that the matter of the two Yu'er had to be planned first.At the very least, Daiyu's marriage must be fixed, and it must be for the sake of the dead daughter.As for Baoyu, it's really not good, just like her mother's wish!

Mrs. Wang thought for a while, and then asked: "Old lady, do you think the Xing family girl knows about this?"

Jia Mufu opened her eyes again, "She is not qualified to attend an occasion like today, do you think she knows?"

Mrs. Wang thinks about it, and feels a little proud, hum, think about it, a sparrow is a sparrow, even if it flies up a branch, it can't become a phoenix!No matter what, Miss Xing is just a nanny chosen by the royal family to take care of the eldest son. How can she compare with her own Yuanchun? That is the real wealth!Fortunately, the eldest lady shows off all day long!
