The Red Mansions

Chapter 85 Wang Xifeng: You did a good job

On the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month, Jia's mansion invited an opera troupe to sing.

Different from last time, this time the stage was set up in Ningguo Mansion.

Early in the morning, Jia Rong called a servant to inform Jia Yun that he should go to Ningguo Mansion for lunch.

Jia Yun didn't refuse. In the past years, the original owner often wandered around in the market, and it was not easy to enter Jia's residence, but now he often associates with the children of Jia's residence.

Although most of the descendants of the Jia family are depraved, there are still three catties of iron in the rotten boat. The heritage of the Jia family is still there. If Jia Yun wants to develop better in the future, there is naturally a place to borrow from the Jia family.

He won't worry too much just because Jia's house will be ransacked in the future.

That's not necessary, it's still the same sentence, as long as the Jia family doesn't rebel, at most they will only be ransacked, and he, a collateral child of the Jia family, will not be implicated.

When it was almost noon, Jia Yun walked to Ningguo Mansion. Today he did not bring Xi Ren and Mei Ren with him.

At the gate of Ningguo Mansion, Jia Yun happened to meet Xue Pan, who was dressed in a flashy dress, leading a group of pig friends and dog friends, talking about something noisy.

Jia Yun cupped her hands, and was about to go up to say hello, when suddenly a figure ran out from the Ningguo Mansion.

Jia Yun moved aside, only to see that it was Jia Rong.

"Hey, where is Brother Rong going?" Xue Pan grabbed Jia Rong and asked loudly, then turned around and winked at Jia Yun.

Jia Yun's heart moved, and she thought to herself: "I saw Qin Keqing a little haggard last time. Could it be that Jia Zhen has become more serious now, and Jia Rong has started to show her swords and guns and let Jia Rong find out?"

He silently nodded to Xue Pan, then took a closer look at Jia Rong, and found that there were obvious slap marks on his left and right cheeks.

In Ningguo Mansion, the only one who dared to beat Jia Rong was Jia Zhen.

Jia Yun felt that she should have guessed well. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Jia Rong angered Jia Zhen because of other things.

Jia Rong was held back, wanting to cry but not crying. With a gloomy face, he forced a smile, pushed Xue Pan away and said, "You guys go to the garden to play first, I have something to go out for, and I'll be back soon."

"Hey, who is this, red-faced, have you done something bad?"

As soon as Jia Rong finished speaking, Wang Xifeng's teasing voice came from behind the crowd.

The crowd dispersed, Wang Xifeng stepped forward, sized Jia Rong left and right, suppressed her smile, and said squintingly: "You are also useless, you have been beaten in the sky, and you have no memory, you should be beaten!"

Jia Rong's face was particularly ugly. He took a deep breath, and said to Wang Xifeng, "Miss Feng, I still have something to do. Let's go ahead and talk about it later."

Then, he bowed his hands to everyone, turned around and left.

Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Rong's back, sighed secretly, recovered, saw Xue Pan, and said with a smile:
"Brother Xue, long time no see. Ever since you moved away from Lixiangyuan, I haven't seen you come back to play?"

Xue Pan chuckled, shook his head and said, "Cousin, isn't it the end of the year? Whether it's at home or in the store, there's always something to do, so I won't be free. I'll definitely come to visit after the year."

Wang Xifeng naturally didn't believe what Xue Pan said, but with so many people at the moment, she wouldn't say anything too harsh.

"Well, my cousin counts on what you say!" Wang Xifeng said with a smile, and before Xue Pan could reply, she turned around and walked up to Jia Yun, and said with a smile:

"Brother Yun, you are doing your duty. You stay at home all day. What are you doing on weekdays? Don't you feel bored?"

As she spoke, she raised her arms, pointed to Ningguo Mansion, and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's enter Dong Mansion together."

Jia Yun nodded, followed Wang Xifeng to the mansion, and said as she walked, "I'm not too busy, I just read and write, and drink the northwest wind when I'm free, it's quite enjoyable."

"It was a bit boring at first, but after seeing the second aunt today, the whole person is in a happy mood. Do you think it's strange?"

"Virtue!" Wang Xifeng smiled and gave Jia Yun a white look, and said, "Isn't it true that handsome men are used to smooth talk?"

"But brother Yun, don't be glib in front of your aunt. I have never seen such a person before, and sweet words are useless to me."

Jia Yun chuckled and said, "Auntie is only half right. In fact, not only handsome men can speak sweet words, but also ugly people can speak well."

Seeing Jia Yun and Wang Xifeng chatting and laughing, Xue Pan, who followed him in, thought to himself, "Brother Yun is quite bold, he can even talk to someone as aggressive as my cousin, tsk tsk."

Although Xue Pan and Wang Xifeng are cousins, they have always been at odds with each other.

Among them, apart from Xue Pan's incompetence, Wang Xifeng didn't think much of Xue Pan, and she didn't even hide it.

But Xue Pan didn't dare to jump in front of Wang Xifeng, because Wang Xifeng was from the Wang family and had Wang Ziteng as his backer, so Xue Pan was most afraid of Wang Ziteng, his uncle.

Jia Yun and Wang Xifeng in front naturally didn't know what Xue Pan was thinking.

After hearing Jia Yun's words, Wang Xifeng smiled and nodded, "You are right. What this person says has nothing to do with his appearance."

After a pause, she asked curiously: "However, my aunt is a little curious. It stands to reason that you are studying now and preparing to take the imperial examination. You have a bright future. Why did you agree to marry my cousin?"

Jia Yun took a deep look at her, moved closer to her, and whispered, "I want to marry my aunt, but isn't my aunt already married?"

"Well, Jia Yun, you actually want to eat my tofu, do you want to die?" Wang Xifeng said softly with cold eyes.

Jia Yun laughed and said: "If you die, you can die. If you can really eat my aunt's tofu, it will be worth it if my nephew dies!"

Wang Xifeng blushed, rolled her eyes, and said with a smile: "With your guts, why don't you try eating auntie's tofu?"

Jia Yun shook her head and said, "Don't dare, nephew is only thinking about it in his heart, how dare he provoke aunt blatantly?"

"Tch, I don't believe half a word of you." Wang Xifeng thought to himself.

Just now, Jia Yun's fiery eyes looked straight at her chest, and she almost touched her upper body.

Taking a deep breath, seeing that Jia Yun was still staring at her and looking her up and down, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but patted Jia Yun's arm lightly, gave her a hard look, and said:
"Where are you looking, pay attention, there are people everywhere in Ningguo Mansion today!"

Jia Yun hit the snake with a stick, and asked with a smile: "Auntie, you mean you can watch it when no one is around?"

"I didn't see it before, you really know how to be silly!" Wang Xifeng gave him a blank look, and then hit Jia Yun again, but Jia Yun quickly shunned the handkerchief in her hand.

"You!" Wang Xifeng glared at Jia Yun, meaning to return the handkerchief quickly.

Jia Yun looked at her with a smile, spreading her hands, where is the handkerchief in her hand?
Wang Xifeng frowned, looked left and right, did not see the handkerchief, felt strange, but because of the wrong occasion, it was inconvenient to entangle Jia Yun.

"Just wait for me, brother Yun, I will definitely give you good fruit when I have a chance in the future." Wang Xifeng said with sideways eyes.

The two of them came and went, their movements were very small, and it was hard for anyone to see anything wrong.

Even Xue Pan behind him could only say that the two of them were talking seriously.

Jia Yun looked at Wang Xifeng, confused and said, "Second Aunt, what did my nephew do wrong to offend you?"

Wang Xifeng sneered and said, "Hmph, you did a good job, and my aunt will definitely reward you well in the future!"
