The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 104: On the Raiders
Qingwen was beside her, listening to Wang Xifeng say "a little thing raised by my aunt", her words were full of contempt for her aunt and concubine, she felt very uncomfortable.

After all, she is the only one in this room who has the identity of an aunt!The name is more upright than Ping'er, and Ping'er is just a housemaid!She thinks so.

In the end, he could only pout secretly, not daring to express any dissatisfaction in front of Wang Xifeng.

After finishing the business, Wang Xifeng still didn't forget what happened in the afternoon, and asked Jia Lian with a hidden knife in his smile: "What do you mean by bringing two Tatar women back from the border?"

Jia Lian leaned on the kang in a leisurely manner, and said with a smile: "Didn't I say that they were rescued from the battlefield. Their parents and relatives all died on the grassland, and they became homeless. Fortunately, the girls on the grassland are no worse than us. Central Plains women, both of them can ride a horse and shoot a bow, so I put them by my side as guards."

"Is it really just a guard?"

Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lian with a half-smile, "I see that although they are beard girls, they are all beautiful. You didn't think of taking them as aunts or something?"

Jia Lian replied with a smile: "Auntie, there are three of them, and I'm not in a hurry to accept others."

Seeing Jia Lian smiling at Ping'er and the three of them, Wang Xifeng immediately became angry.

"Oh, when did you have three aunts?
I only know that she is, but when did these two become your aunts? "

Wang Xifeng pointed at Qingwen, and then glanced at Ping'er and Xiangling who were also blushing.

Jia Lian just laughed without explaining.Wang Xifeng said angrily: "Hey, you are really used to push your feet, and now that I let you, you will come up even more?
If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have given Ping'er to you! "

In fact, Wang Xifeng was already mentally prepared.

After all, Qingwen is the roommate handpicked by Jia Mu, and she will definitely be one in the future.

Ping'er is her own decision-maker, even though she is only a housemaid now, it is because she cannot do without Ping'er, her right-hand man.

If you seal up your aunt, you will have your aunt's rules, so it's not easy to follow her as a housekeeper.

There is only one Xiangling, which has not been clearly stated before.

But Wang Xifeng also understands that Jia Lian loves that girl so much... So far, Xiangling is still not considered a maid of the Jia family, and she hasn't even written a contract of sale.

It is conceivable that Jia Lian should be accepted as a good concubine in the future.

She knew it in her heart, but Jia Lian said it so generously, which still made her very angry.

When did her Grandma Feng become like this, before he was not allowed to accept any of them, he only dared to go outside secretly.It's all right now, there are three blatantly placed under her nose, and I have to take them around every day, it's annoying to think about it!

Seeing Wang Xifeng angry, Ping'er and the others, who had their own thoughts, were a little uneasy.

Jia Lian stretched out his feet and hooked Wang Xifeng, who was sitting on the edge of the kang, into the kang, and stretched out his hands to restrain him: "Who told you that you were born into a rich family and married to me, shouldn't you have several sisters? If you don't agree, Let's fight now, whoever wins will speak first."

While speaking, Jia Lian had already pressed Wang Xifeng under him and grabbed her hand.

Seeing this, Ping'er immediately gave Qingwen two winks and beckoned them to go out together.

Qingwen gave Jia Lian two disgusted glances, but obediently followed Ping'er out.

On the kang, Wang Xifeng didn't see it, and while avoiding Jia Lian, he scolded: "What are you doing, the girls are still here, how decent it is for them to see."

Jia Lian attached himself to Prince Xifeng, seeing that she was twisting left and right, it was hard to speak, so she smiled and said, "Look, is there anyone else in the room?"

Sister Feng tilted her head vigorously, and sure enough, all three of Ping'er were gone.

As soon as she felt relieved, she was bullied by Jia Lian and kissed her flushed cheek.

Wang Xifeng spat: "Seeing how anxious you are, you are not afraid of their jokes..."

Seeing that she was no longer struggling, Jia Lian let go of her hand, put her arms around her waist and hugged her up, and found that Wang Xifeng was still so light, and her heart became even more angry, and she whispered in her ear, "Let them laugh when they laugh." , I haven't eaten my Feng'er for more than a year, why don't you have a good taste?"

Wang Xifeng was also aroused by Jia Lian a few times, and realized that Jia Lian was already stripping her clothes, she hurriedly said: "Don't, it's not good to be here, go inside, it's warmer..."

At this time, Jia Lian was kind and generous, hugged Sister Feng's slender figure, and walked to the bedroom without wearing shoes, stepping on the carpet.

"Death~~"

Wang Xifeng was lying in Jia Lian's arms, her brows were shy, and after a coquettish sentence, she raised her crisp arms around Jia Lian's neck, and let it go...

……

Even though the Chinese New Year is coming soon, Jia Lian still took time to visit his grandfather's family.

His grandfather is a little old man with a great personality. If the old man knows that he didn't report his safety as soon as possible when he returned to Beijing, he will probably be angry again. At that time, it will be difficult to coax him.

Apart from Zhang's house, Jia Lian only went to Lin's house.

One is to congratulate Lin Ruhai for his promotion, and the other is to know that he and Daiyu are sick, and see if there is anything they can do to help.

At this time, the imperial court had given annual leave to all civil and military officials, so Lin Ruhai was at home, busy setting up the ancestral hall and preparing for ancestor worship.

Worshiping ancestors is a top priority for a big family, even if you are in a foreign land, you can't forget it.

It's a pity that the Lin family is full of plans, Lin Ruhai, Lin Daiyu, and Lin Ruhai's two concubines...

At a glance, the huge Lantai Temple mansion is really desolate.

Moreover, although Lin Ruhai was promoted to the capital, judging from his appearance, his condition did not improve much.

He also heard that Lin Ruhai had been raised in his hometown for half a year, and was suddenly ordered to return to Beijing. Jia Lian guessed that Emperor Ningkang might be someone under his command, especially people with fame and seniority like Lin Ruhai were really not enough. So knowing that Lin Ruhai was not in good health, he was still transferred to the center to take up an important position.

Fortunately, Lantai Temple is a Qing noble yamen, and the hall officials should have nothing to do at ordinary times. I hope that Lin Ruhai can take this opportunity to slowly recuperate his body.

In the days that followed, Jia Lian spent most of his time in Dongkuayuan, serving Jia She personally.

The old guy used to beat or scold him when he saw him, but now he is so sick that he can't walk and can't speak, even if he wants to beat and scold, there is nothing he can do.

But Jia Lian still found that when the old man was sober occasionally, his nose was not his nose and his eyes were not his eyes.

He wondered, when ordinary people are so ill, they should be overwhelmed by seeing their sons serving them so filially. Why doesn't Jia She accept this kind of thing?
Could it be that the old man opened his real eyes before he died, so that he could see through his fake filial piety?
But it's all right, in Jia She's current situation, if he strangles him to death at will, no one will be suspicious...

Basically, Jia She's threat to him has been lifted, and now he only needs to count the time, waiting for Jia She to burp.

Besides, the Jia family, because of Jia Amnesty, this year is not very easy.

First of all, Jia's mother didn't have the heart to participate in various banquets, so Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen and others couldn't make a big deal of it.

Originally, every year before Chinese New Year, Jia Zhen, as the head of the patriarch, would invite the children of the clan to eat and drink, but this year it was also canceled, and only a few tables were set up for fun.Jia Lian was also invited, but unfortunately Jia Lian declined very reasonably.

On the day of worshiping the ancestors, the entire clan finished worshiping the ancestors, and the elders of the clan gathered together to visit Jia She's condition, but they all felt that it was useless.

So, together with Jia Zhen, they discussed the succession of the title of Rongguo Mansion...

Clan succession, they are the decision makers on the surface... But in fact, their combined voice is not as good as Jia Mu.

Of course, as long as there is no conflict and everyone follows the rules, there is no problem.

There is no dispute about the existence of Jia Lian, the eldest son. All the elders of the clan think that Jia Lian should inherit it, and they can report it without waiting for Jia to pardon him.

After all, Jia She is alive and can report in Jia She's own name.

Once Jia Amnesty is dead, Jia Zhen, the patriarch, will be needed to step in when Jia's mother doesn't care about foreign affairs.

Jia Lian didn't want to owe Jia Zhen more favors, so he transferred a relationship and asked Jia Dairu, the only second grandfather of the two houses, to come forward and make a proposal.

Everyone had no objection, but since the report was to be made in the name of Jia She, one had to ask Jia She what he meant.

Therefore, Jia Zhen, Jia Dairu and others stood in Dongkuayuan and waited for a long time. Finally, when Jia She was sober, they only heard a weak and rude word:
"Go away~~"
