The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 3 The difficult road to escape

Due to the quarrel before leaving, the father and son lost their interest in small talk.

Cheap Laozi put his hands in front, and Laishunzhui looked around from behind, secretly reflecting the surrounding terrain and memory fragments.

Anyone who has read the original book knows that the Rongning Erfu family has a great business, but only by being in it can you truly feel what this two masters really mean.

With the Rongning Second Mansion as the center, the back door is nicknamed Ningrongli, the west of Rongguo Mansion is called Xingrongli, and the east of Ningguo Mansion is called Changningli.

Ningrongli is mostly a side branch of Jia's family, Xingrongli is headed by the in-laws of Zunrong Mansion, and Changningli is headed by the in-laws of Ning Mansion.

Outside the front door is Ningrong Street. Ningrong Street is adjacent to Ningrong Lane. Further south of Ningrong Lane is Fenggong City. There is a newly built Ningrong Back Lane in the south of Fenggong City.

In Ning Rong Lane, there are old servants.

Those who have recently entered the residence are mostly placed in the back alley of Ningrong - Laijia is one of them.

Even though the names are all 'Alley' and 'Li', in fact, there are hundreds of families living in each of the alleys and alleys, alleys leading to alleys.

There are all kinds of things added together in one place, I am afraid that there may not be three to 4000 people taking refuge here!
Less gossip.

But they said that the father and son moved forward silently. They walked out of the back alley and passed through Fenggong City. When they saw the entrance of a certain alley, Laiwang suddenly pointed to the inside and said, "There is a man named Qianxue in this alley, do you still remember?"

This question is really abrupt. Come to Shun to look at the alley, and then look at the cheap old man, his face is inexplicable.

However, Wang Wang continued: "She was originally the eldest maid next to the third master Bao. In the summer, she annoyed the third master Bao because of a trivial matter, so she was expelled from the mansion - alas, she is a very good girl, but she has never been in her life. I'm afraid it's a mess."

Before he did anything wrong, Laishun was also on duty beside Jia Baoyu, but he acted as a long-term follower than maids and servants.

Hearing Laozi's remarks at this time, he immediately guessed that he was beating himself up about Qianxue.

only……

Laishun would like to be kicked out!
While slandering the cheap Lao Tzu as a slave, he actually made a sense of superiority, and on the other hand, he considered whether to make some more mistakes, so that Wang Xifeng could drive himself out of the Rongguo Mansion.

Thinking like this in my heart, Laishun retorted casually, "Why did she ruin it? Since she was once in the treasure..."

Speaking of the half, he couldn't help but wonder: "I heard others call him Bao Er Ye, why do you and my mother want to call him San Ye?"

"The second room is in power now, and I like to use the second room's small ranking to call it Bao Er Ye and Huan San Ye, and others will follow suit - but our family is in the second master Lian's house, so how can we call it over the second master Lian? His second master?"

[Because there is a lot of controversy over the name of the third master of Bao, insert an explanation: in the serious passage book, Jia Lian has no biological brother - Jia Hu is mentioned in the miscellaneous ancient texts, and the authenticity is doubtful.

This book is only ranked according to the characters actually written in the popular book.

Both: Jia Lian's second grandfather is ranked in the family (the Rong family is not separated), that is, after his cousin Jia Zhu who died early; and Baoyu's second grandfather is his own brother, and also ranks after his brother Jia Zhu , but not his cousin Jia Lian.

By the way, with a private item, the old man felt that the two masters standing side by side just revealed the estrangement between the big room and the second room, as well as their respective mentality.

The big house lives alone in the east courtyard, but insists on using the big ranking of the family to show that the family is in order, and my big house should be respected. suspected. 】

It was only then that Laishun suddenly came back to the topic and said, "Since Qianxue used to be a maid next to Master Bao, she must not look bad. What's so difficult about finding a good family to marry?"

"What's so difficult?"

Laiwang raised his eyebrows and waited to be scolded, remembering his son's lack of soul, and then explained patiently: "If you think she was kicked out, you won't go back to the government? Not to mention that she is married, even if she wants to. To manage some positive business students, you must first obtain the consent of the government!"

After listening to Laozi's explanation, Laiwang understood it.

Although Qianxue was expelled from the government, it did not mean that she would be free from slavery from now on. Removing her nationality is equivalent to the boss taking the initiative to subsidize employees to start a business. ?

After Qianxue was kicked out, the restraint and oppression she was subjected to was even greater than when she was a maid.

In order to maintain the majesty of the master and have the effect of killing chickens and warning monkeys, it is the most common practice to set up various obstacles in their marriage life.

Therefore, few of the maids who were kicked out were able to die peacefully.

After hearing this explanation, Laishun felt a chill in his heart, and subconsciously said again: "Since this is the case, she simply escaped from the capital..."

"shut up!"

Laiwang scolded his brows and said sternly: "Do you think it is easy to be a fugitive slave?! Not to mention where she can escape as a little girl, even if she can escape, a piece of film in the house will be handed over to Shun. Tianfu, you can immediately issue a sea arrest document!"

Having said that, he glanced at his son and added: "Second grandma is best to save face, if you dare to be a fugitive slave, she is afraid that she will copy our house with her backhand, and then take out a copy as a bonus!"

After he finished speaking, he took care of himself and opened his legs.

Gan~
At this time, you know how to face it?

When she shouted that she was going to be beaten to death that night, why didn't she think that it was also her Wang Xifeng's face?

Laishun followed behind and muttered angrily, while silently giving up the idea of ​​being a fugitive slave.

When I crossed Ningrong Lane and came to the west entrance of Ningrong Street, I saw tall white walls and black tiles on both sides, and the view was extremely neat and clean.

It was only then that Laishun understood why relatives lived at the back door and servants lived at the front door—if a relative lived in the front, and a high wall was built to separate them, it would be inhumane.

Turning eastward from the street intersection, it took about a hundred or ten steps to reach the West Corner Gate of Rongguo Mansion.

Passing through the corner gates, the corridors, the corridors and the halls, I don't know how many houses and pavilions I pass by, all the people I meet are greeted with a group of friendly smiles.

When they reached the intersection between the two doors, they saw a thin woman pacing back and forth in front of the hanging flower door, her mouth kept muttering, and the handkerchief in her hand was almost twisted into a twist.

Seeing her restless look, Laishun hurriedly took two steps and said, "Mother, what are you doing here?"

That woman is naturally the Xu family.

These days, Mrs. Xu was busy with Wang Xifeng during the day, and when she got home at night, she surrounded her son and asked for warmth, and waited on him in a confused manner.

The human heart is full of flesh, and when Laishun called her 'mother', she didn't feel any discomfort at all.

As for the cheap guy...

It can only be said to be homosexual.

However, when Mrs. Xu saw her son, she hurriedly stepped forward to hold him back and asked, "I've walked all the way, are your injuries okay?!"

Before Laishun could respond, she complained to her husband again, "What are you doing in such a hurry? You can't wait for the child to get better before letting him..."

"What are you talking about!"

Laiwang said displeasedly: "It's not like you haven't heard those rumors. If you don't let him show up again, I'm afraid the whole family will treat him as a fool!"

Seeing that his wife wanted to talk back, he hurriedly added: "Didn't you say you want to marry him? This is really going to be called a fool, who would be willing to marry his daughter?!

Only then did Mrs. Xu give up, and after hugging her son for a while, she said that after meeting Wang Xifeng, she would take her son to Lixiangyuan for a walk. At that time, the mother and two left directly from the East Corner Gate, so that the husband would not have to wait.

When Lai Wang responded, Mrs Xu led Lai Shun into the back house, all the way to the front of the three small halls with their seats upside down. Seeing that there are many servants waiting under the corridors on both sides, this is obviously where Wang Xifeng handles housework. .

Xu shi instructed his son to wait outside, and then he picked up the curtain and walked in without the help of the maid in front of the door.

Laishun stood alone in the yard. At first, he didn't know what to do, but gradually he felt a little restless in his heart.

The most coveted women in this Dream of Red Mansions are undoubtedly Daiyu and Baochai, but according to the information he has collected these days, Baochai is thirteen years old, and Daiyu is only ten years old. A man's fantasy.

On the contrary, it was Wang Xifeng, who was in her early twenties, and it was a good time for peaches and plums to ripen and nourish their mouths.

Due to his vague memory, he only vaguely remembered that the other party was a sullen and pretty woman, but he couldn't recall his specific body and appearance.

At this time, when I was thinking about going to see her, my coveted thoughts were like weeds, and I couldn't shovel it clean.

I was worried that Wang Xifeng would look at him because of his dissatisfaction, but if he just looked at her secretly with an 'appreciative' attitude, wouldn't it matter?

It has to be said that Laishun thought he had corrected his mentality, but in fact he just didn't float so high, and his thoughts and thoughts still did not match his own identity.

But on the other hand, if he can really straighten his mentality in a down-to-earth manner, and treat himself as a servant of the Rongguo Mansion, it is not like a transmigrator.

However, everything has advantages and disadvantages. He only cares about his claws and scratches his heart, and gradually throws the humiliation of kneeling and admitting his mistakes to the sky.

Just at this moment, the curtain of the main room was lifted, and Xu shi came out again with a smile on his face.

Laishun's heart beat fast, and he subconsciously took two steps forward. He stayed in and paid homage to the 'Female Bodhisattva'. He didn't want Mr. Xu but said, "Second grandma, let us go directly to Lixiangyuan."

Go directly to Lixiangyuan?

HeZhe saved himself for several days for the 'first time', but it was his hot face sticking to his cold ass!
How much I looked forward to when I came to Shunfang, and how disappointed I am now.

Deliberately attacking and asking Wang Xifeng why she refused to see her, it could be seen that the servants and women in the corridor were all looking sideways, it was really inconvenient to talk, so she had to leave the place with her head sullen and followed by Mrs. Xu.

"Auntie, Auntie, come to Wang Auntie!"

I didn't want to just walk out not too far when I heard someone call out from behind.

Looking back, it was a young woman chasing after her. When she saw Laishun's mother and son stopping, she stopped shouting.

Seeing this, Mrs Xu also rushed up to meet him and asked, "But what else does grandma have to explain?"

The young woman came to the front, but she looked at Laishun generously first, and then smiled at Xu Shi: "Laishun fruit is very good, my aunt didn't think about tea and rice a few days ago, and I thought he was bluffing. How come."

"It's also a loss for those good medicinal herbs you sent!"

As Xu shi said, seeing his son just smirking, he quickly reminded him: "What are you doing, thank you sister Ping'er soon."

It turned out to be Ping'er!
Jia Lian's maid, Wang Xifeng's number one confidant, is also one of the characters in the original book.

Laishun only thanked him, and looked at the woman in front of him secretly, only to see that she was wearing a long goose-yellow dress, with silver threads around her neck and tassel on her waist, gold bracelets around her slender wrists, and jade hairpins slanted on her high bun. Speaking of jewels, it also has its own richness.

On the other hand, her face is full of clear soup and little water, and there is not much fat powder embellishment on her face. She only has an elegant and pleasant melon seed face, which is full of warmth and kindness.

It is said that it can be seen from a distance and cannot be played with, but she is close to people, but she can't give birth to the slightest delusion.

But it is precisely because of the servants that Laishun regrets not being able to see Wang Xifeng.

At this moment, I heard Ping'er smile and say, "I'm just an errand runner. What's the value of thanks? If you want to thank you, you should also thank the second grandma."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice slightly: "My aunt knows her best, and she is used to being short-sighted. She was annoyed at the time and made a heavy hand, and she regretted it later."

Laishun believed at most [-]% of these words, and it may be true to protect the shortcoming, but to say that Wang Xifeng regretted hitting her, but it was absolutely impossible - otherwise, she would not have seen it and would have dismissed herself.

However, the thoughts belonged to the thoughts, but Laishun did not dare to show it on his face, and was busy with his mother to thank him again and again.

After a few gossips, Ping'er brought up the business: "Grandma asked me to tell my aunt that Laishun's name is already in the boiler room, so don't forget to let him go in the tenth day of the new year."

Boiler Room?
This Rongguo Mansion has already started to use boilers for heating?
"Boiler Room?"

Xu Shi let out a soft cry and blurted out a complaint: "The land is dirty and tired, how can my family come to Laishun..."

Speaking of the half, I remembered that this was Wang Xifeng's explanation, so I was busy and forcibly stopped the conversation, and went back embarrassedly to make up for it: "It's not that I think this errand is hard, it's true that Shun'er has grown up now, and it's been smoldering all day. , I'm like a kitchen king, I'm afraid it will delay the marriage."

"Auntie, don't be in a hurry."

Ping'er said with relief: "This time it's too much trouble, I always have to act in front of people. This boiler room errand is not a permanent job. When the spring is warm next year, there will naturally be good errands waiting for him."

After speaking, he turned to Laishun: "You have been grinding your temper in the boiler room for the past few months, but you dare not do anything again!"

Although she said this with a bit of seriousness, her eyes were still amiable, so Laishun responded with a shy face and a smile: "Sister, just don't worry, this time I walked in front of the gate of hell, not to mention becoming a Buddha. , you have to make some progress, no matter what.”

Hearing this, Ping'er was obviously a little surprised, and couldn't help but looked at Laishun again, and then nodded: "It's much more clever than before, as the old saying goes, good and bad depend on each other, if you can really change your temper from now on, it's okay. Not a good thing."

Saying that, he bowed slightly to Mrs Xu: "Isn't Auntie going to Lixiangyuan? The second grandma can't live without people, so I won't delay you."

After saying goodbye to Mrs Xu, she turned around and went back the same way.

But after walking a few steps, Ping'er suddenly turned back and asked, "Laishun, I heard that you couldn't remember what happened before you got drunk that night?"

Before waiting for Laishun's response, she asked herself again, "It's okay to forget, but be more careful in the future. You have to know who you can make friends with and who you can't."
