The Red Mansions

Chapter 168 Wang Xifeng: Let's Divide Evenly
on the attic.

Wang Xifeng let out a long breath, her face was flushed, her expression was relaxed, and she smiled without showing her teeth:

"I have to go back. Today, Baoyu was severely beaten because of Miss Lin. I, Heping, can't leave for too long. If I didn't miss you so much, I wouldn't come here in such a hurry."

She hadn't tasted men and women for more than half a year, and she almost forgot what it was like.

After being nourished by Jia Yun for a while, I feel that I have a soul.

Jia Yun hugged left and right, nodded and smiled softly: "There is no need to explain, now that I have returned to Beijing to be an official, I will not let it out for a while, and I will have time to meet in the future."

Wang Xifeng hummed, slowly closed her eyes, longing for Jia Yun's embrace, but forced herself to get up again.

Seeing Ping'er's face full of reluctance, Wang Xifeng hesitated and said: "Forget it, although you are called my master and servant, you are like a sister, and today you will stay for a while longer before going back, it is a reward for you! "

Ping'er was overjoyed, his eyes sparkled, and he said happily: "Thank you grandma for the reward!"

Wang Xifeng smiled, got up and rustled for a while, didn't ask Ping'er to take care of her, she did her own hygiene and dressed properly.

Looking back, looking at Jia Yun who was carefully examining her body on the couch, Wang Xifeng's heart felt hot, and she was very reluctant to leave so soon.

But after all she was mature and knew the seriousness, so she pondered and said: "Just to remind you, because of Baoyu's rudeness, the Jia family will definitely not be able to borrow money from the Lin family, so they can only find a way with you and the Xue family."

"If you don't lend any money to Jia's family, they might try to play tricks, so be careful."

Jia Yun looked at her and said lightly: "Then don't blame me for being preemptive. When something happens to them, you won't feel bad, will you?"

"I don't care!" Wang Xifeng sighed, stepped forward and knelt down, held Jia Yun's face and said, "Now Jia Lian and I are strangers, how can there be any affection between husband and wife?"

"I don't know how long this cold relationship can last."

"You don't have to worry about me, just be tight to yourself, but there is one thing, other people in Jia's house can have troubles, but they can't implicate me."

Jia Yun held her tender jade hand and said with a smile: "That's impossible, I don't want you to be wronged."

"Tch, tell me all the nice things. If you don't provoke me, I don't have these troubles." Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes and said.

Jia Yun squinted at her and said, "You were confused before, and you did things that hurt others and benefit yourself for the sake of a little bit of power. If I hadn't persuaded you, you might end up badly in the future!"

Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "You have been an official for more than half a year. You didn't study knowledge, but you learned fortune-telling..."

"Crack!" Jia Yun patted her bowed buttocks, rubbed them lightly, and said in a deep voice:

"Don't change the subject. I know you can't be idle, and I'm afraid you'll get bored. I'll take care of your business. Do you want to?"

"Yes! Of course!" Wang Xifeng said eagerly with bright eyes.

Jia Yun asked with a smile: "Aren't you afraid that if you make money, it will be taken over by the Jia family?"

Wang Xifeng hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I do business in the name of taking care of the dowry, and the money I earn is my own. As long as they are not afraid of being poked in the back, they can come to take advantage of me!"

"Furthermore, am I easy to bully, Wang Xifeng? Is it good if I don't bully others?"

Jia Yun nodded, and asked again: "It is necessary to show your face in business, are you not afraid of other people's gossip?"

"That's even more of a problem. I used to manage Jia's mansion, and I often showed my face, so it's not a problem." Wang Xifeng said with a smile.

Jia Yun nodded and said, "Forget it, since that's the case, I will naturally support you strongly."

"Tell me quickly, what kind of business do you want?" Wang Xifeng asked curiously.

Jia Yun smiled and said: "I sell the spices. I provide the source of the goods. The variety is complete and the quality is excellent. There are even precious spices such as agarwood, sandalwood, dipteroin, musk, ambergris, benzoin, and frankincense."

Wang Xifeng was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said excitedly: "I've done this business, and we'll share the money when the time comes!"

Everyone knows that the spice business makes money, but the source of goods is hard to find.

In particular, the sources of precious spices are mostly monopolized by the royal family and aristocratic families due to their scarcity, and outsiders rarely get a share.

Now that Jia Yun said that there are top-quality spices to provide, Wang Xifeng naturally knows how terrifying the profits are, so he agreed without thinking.

Jia Yun shook her head and said, "You do the business yourself, and you come to me to buy the goods with money. I don't interfere with how much you earn, how about it?"

Wang Xifeng is not greedy, she said with a smile: "If I really want to make money, even if I buy the goods from you, I will not eat alone."

"If the profit is considerable, I will still share half of it with you at that time, just keep your word!"

Although she gave her body to Jia Yun, she also knew that business is business, and love is love.

If one day Jia Yun stopped supplying her, the business would not last long.

Therefore, Wang Xifeng was very straightforward and took the initiative to give up the profits to make a good impression on Jia Yun.

Jia Yun glanced at her unexpectedly, gently pulled her head over, pecked at her warm little cherry mouth, and said, "You know the general idea, and this money-making business needs to be given to you." You did."

Wang Xifeng grinned, responded to Jia Yun's kiss, and then backed away after a while, got up and said with a smile:
"Not much to say, I'll go back and arrange people to free up my dowry shops."

"If you don't believe me, I have a lot of shops, but I rarely make a lot of money. I got a good business from you this time. I'm so excited that I can't wait..."

After Wang Xifeng left, Ping'er whispered, "Why do you want to do business with her all of a sudden?"

"I know she is strong-minded and competitive, and I'm afraid she will get sick from boredom because she has nothing to do in Jia's mansion."

Ping'er: "Aren't you afraid that she will ignore you after making money?"

"Not afraid, unless she is willing to be a widow!" Jia Yun shook her head and smiled, then said:

"Isn't there still you watching from the side? If she turns her back on me, you have to write to me!"

Ping'er smiled and said: "I am her maid after all, if she really wants to leave you, why don't I follow her?"

Jia Yun smiled, rubbed her in her arms, and said softly, "Are you willing to leave?"

"I'm not willing, I'll recognize you for the rest of my life." Ping'er said tenderly.

……

After seeing off Ping'er, Jia Yun and Xi Ren returned to the yard slowly, and a little maid stepped forward and said:
"Master, the old lady of the Xue family and Mr. Xue came just now, and now they have gone to the back house."

"Understood." Jia Yun nodded, and turned to tell Xi Ren: "Go to the kitchen and tell me, let's prepare a good table today."

Xiren responded and went to the kitchen, while Jia Yun walked to the back house.

As soon as he walked into the yard, he heard Xue Pan yelling loudly in the room: "No! You can tell me you can kiss me, but you can't find the Xia family!"

"Hey, you bastard, can't you talk about something? Why are you yelling?" Xue Wang reprimanded.

Xue Pan: "Anyway, I don't care, I can find anyone, but the girl from the Xia family can't do it. I heard Brother Yun said that she is a domineering, arrogant, jealous, vicious woman, and I can't be contaminated!"

"Another one, I heard that Jia Rong from the Ningguo Mansion is also going to propose marriage to her, so I just let him have it."

Xue Wang scolded angrily: "Why did I give birth to such a wicked person like you?"

"What's wrong with the Xia family? They are the same royal merchants as the Xue family, and they are both orphans and widowed mothers. If you want to marry Miss Xia, won't the Xia family's money also belong to the Xue family?"

Xue Pan asked anxiously: "Is our Xue family short of money? Why do we need so much money?"

Jia Yun walked into the room, and saw Xue Wang and Xue Pan arguing endlessly, and Xue Baochai next to him was so sad that he couldn't even get in the conversation.

Seeing Jia Yun coming in, Xue Baochai was overjoyed, and stepped forward and said, "Husband, you came just in time, help the slave family persuade mother and brother!"

Jia Yun stepped forward to salute Mrs. Xue and said, "I've seen my mother-in-law, so that my mother-in-law can know that my son-in-law just got the news that Miss Xia and Brother Rong were officially engaged yesterday! It won't help any more quarrels now." !"

Xue Wangshi showed disappointment when he heard the words, and then he looked happy again, stepped forward to hold Jia Yun's hand, looked him up and down carefully, and said with a smile:
"My Dider, I haven't seen you for more than half a year, but I have become more handsome and dignified. I am worthy of being an official."

Jia Yun patted her hand and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law is serious, but son-in-law is still the same as before, nothing has changed."

Mrs. Xue Wang took Jia Yun's hand, sat down to talk, and asked, "Son, tell me, when will you and Baochai girl have a child? I heard from her that you think she is young, no let her conceive?"

Jia Yun pondered for a moment, then replied: "There is such a thing, Baochai is too young, and her bones are not yet formed. Having a child too early is not good for adults or children."

Xue Wang frowned and said, "This is the first time I've heard of such a thing..."

She held Jia Yun's hand in her arms, and said with anticipation: "You guys had children earlier, we elders are more at ease in our hearts, don't you know?"

"I know." Jia Yun replied.

Xue Wangshi: "Then you give me a letter, when will you want the child?"

"How about... a few more years?" Jia Yun was confused.

Mrs. Xue shook her head and said, "That won't work. Wait a few more years. I'm afraid someone will gossip about our Baochai, and some people will say that she can't bear children. Gossip is really ugly!"

"Is someone gossiping now?" Jia Yun frowned.

Xue Wang smiled and said: "That's not true, but if you don't get pregnant again this year and next year, there will probably be a lot of gossips."

After a pause, she continued: "Son, listen to my advice, don't wait too long for the child, at least have a husband, and then slowly take care of yourself in the future, what do you think?"

Jia Yun glanced at Xue Baochai, who had hopeful eyes, thought for a while, nodded and said, "Forget it, I was wrong. I don't care about Baochai's feelings. She and I will have a child as soon as possible."

In this era, if you have been married for several years and have not had children, even if Xue Baochai is the main wife, your status is extremely unstable. Only with children can people feel at ease.

Seeing Jia Yun agreeing, Xue Wangshi nodded happily, holding his hand tighter...
