The Red Chamber begins with a bastard

Chapter 49
After a few continuous spring rains, the trees in the garden are green, the grass grows, and the moss under the eaves also sneaks up, which corresponds to a sentence in "The Inscription of the Humble Room": the step marks are green on the steps, and the grass is green on the curtains.

However, the courtyard where Wang Xifeng lived was not a shabby house, and it was even more impossible for her to "talk and laugh with great scholars, but never interact with white people", because she herself was illiterate, but Wang Xifeng still had a close friend in her boudoir, that was Qin Keqing, the wife of Jia Rong from the East Mansion, and the servants called her Qin's Grandma Rong.

Qin Keqing's identity is very special. According to the original book, she is an abandoned baby who was fostered in a health care hall, which is equivalent to the current orphanage. Later, she was adopted by Yingshulang (official name) Qin Ye. At that time, she also adopted a baby boy.

When Qin Keqing grows up, she looks charming and charming. To use a description from the original book, she is graceful and delicate, gentle and peaceful, bright and charming like Baochai, and romantic and graceful like Daiyu. It can be seen that this is such a charming stunner.

Jia Lian and Jia Zhen are of the same generation, they both belong to the word "Yu".

For example, today, Qin Keqing went to the mansion again, and she was chatting with Wang Xifeng in the house at the moment. The topic was nothing more than Aunt Xue's family was going to Beijing, or some things happened in the mansion.

At this moment, Laiwang's daughter-in-law came in, with a strange expression and said: "Grandma, Mr. Huan is here, and he brought a bunch of bacon, and said he would give it to grandma to taste."

Wang Xifeng was stunned for a moment, and then a look of color flashed in his eyes, hehe, could it be that Huan Laosan finally couldn't hold on anymore and came to "bow down" to him?But what does it mean to bring a skewer of bacon?
Qin Keqing stood up hastily at this moment: "I'll go back first."

Wang Xifeng rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Why panic, although Huan'er is your uncle, but he is only a little older, what is there to avoid? Just sit down honestly, I will let you watch a good show."

Qin Keqing was hesitating when she heard the words, but was forced to sit down again by Wang Xifeng, so she could only laugh and scold: "Sit down, what are you doing with your hands and feet, no wonder the old lady said you are a rogue and settled down." As she spoke, she looked at the door curiously.

In fact, Qin Keqing was quite curious about Jia Huan, especially at the New Year's Eve party, when Jia Huan became a blockbuster and took the lottery in one fell swoop. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard to believe that Jia Huan, who was once stubborn, became so good, as if he had changed. What is the reason?How could such an earth-shaking change happen to a waste?
Qin Keqing was thinking about it, and Jia Huan walked in with a bunch of bacon, Shi Shiran, with a tall and straight figure and delicate features. Although he was only a boy of seven or eight years old, he exuded a touch of bookishness in his calmness, which made people feel good.

Seeing that Qin Keqing was there, Jia Huan couldn't help being slightly stunned, but immediately recovered his indifferent look, bowed his hands and said, "Huan'er has seen Lian's second sister-in-law, and Brother Rong's daughter-in-law is also here."

Qin Keqing got up and said with a smile: "Mrs. Qin has met Uncle Huan!"

Qin Keqing's voice is as charming as her appearance, her apricot-like eyes are sparkling, her head is slightly lowered, her eyelashes are curved, her docile and cute appearance makes people want to bully her, moreover, if this kind of woman is bullied, there is a high probability that she will choose to submit to it, no wonder she still dare not speak out after being bullied by her father-in-law Jia Zhen in the original book.

Jia Huan nodded: "Brother Rong's daughter-in-law, don't be too polite, just sit down."

Seeing Jia Huan's adult-like appearance, Wang Xifeng was very upset, not to mention that this was his own room, Jia Huan's tone was undoubtedly a bit overwhelming, Huan Lao San, is this an attitude of bowing your head and bowing your head?
Jia Huan ignored Wang Xifeng, who was pretending to be drinking tea, and sat down on a chair. The string of bacon was also casually placed on the tea table beside him, and he frowned and said, "Second sister-in-law Lian, the servants in your house are too unruly. They don't pour tea when guests come?"

Wang Xifeng almost spit out a mouthful of tea, but Qin Keqing's eyes flashed with astonishment, thinking, this is not from the ring, right?

Wang Xifeng suppressed her anger, and pretended to reprimand: "Feng'er, are you blind or deaf? Why don't you pour tea for Third Master Huan? You're so stupid."

Feng'er had no choice but to pour tea resentfully, Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Feng'er is clumsy, far less clever than Ping'er, no, your Lian's second elder brother often complains, saying that he wants to replace Ping'er, by the way, Brother Huan, can you handle Ping'er that girl?"

Jia Huan said indifferently: "Ping'er is pretty good, and I would like to thank Second Sister-in-law for giving her to me. Otherwise, where can I find such a smart and caring girl? Now Second Sister-in-law is using two second-class maids in exchange, and I will not change."

Wang Xifeng laughed dryly twice, Qin Keqing finally sensed the smell of gunpowder between Jia Huan and Wang Xifeng at this moment, and immediately lowered his head and drank tea silently, so as not to get involved.

Wang Xifeng glanced at the string of bacon that Jia Huan put on the tea table, and said slightly mockingly: "Brother Huan came to my room, why did you bring a string of bacon? Could it be that this is Shu Xiu? Want me to be your teacher?"

As soon as this remark came out, Feng'er and the others all laughed, especially Laiwang's daughter-in-law, who laughed very loudly, that broken gong's voice was so ugly.

Qin Keqing also couldn't help laughing and said: "Auntie is too narrow, how could Uncle Huan worship you as a teacher, you are not afraid of being laughed at."

Wang Xifeng smiled disapprovingly: "Didn't it say in the book? Threesomes must have my teacher. Although I don't have much knowledge and I don't know a few words, I must have my own strengths. It's not surprising that Brother Huan wants to learn from a teacher."

Laiwang's daughter-in-law smiled and joked, "That's right, among other things, just grandma's clever mouth is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Third Master Huan really wants to learn from grandma, there are many things he can learn."

Jia Huan smiled lightly and said, "Second sister-in-law Lian is thinking too much. Today is the fifteenth day, so Huan'er sent a piece of bacon to taste for second sister-in-law Lian. There is no other meaning."

Laiwang's daughter-in-law laughed and said, "Did Mr. Huan eat too much bacon these days, so he got confused? Today is clearly the third day of junior high school, and it's still early before the fifteenth day."

Jia Huan snorted and said, "So today is the third day of junior high school, not the fifteenth day? That's my memory, but whether it's the first day or the fifteenth day of junior high school, it's all Huan'er's wish. I hope the second sister-in-law will not dislike her."

Wang Xifeng frowned and stared at Jia Huan, as if pondering the mystery behind Jia Huan's words, and Qin Keqing was also thoughtful.

Jia Huan smiled and said, "Besides, Huan'er also wants to ask Lian's second sister-in-law, when will the monthly money of Auntie and Huan'er be paid?"

Wang Xifeng sneered in her heart, I dare say that this person who came to the door today was not a bower, but a teacher to ask a crime, but even your mother can't do anything to me, so what can you do to me?
"Brother Huan, you don't know. The house has a lot of expenses for the New Year, and now the monthly money can't be paid out for a while, not only you and my aunt, but also myself, and the monthly money in the wife's house. If you don't believe me, ask the people in the wife's house!" Wang Xifeng sighed and pretended to be worried.

A trace of sarcasm flashed in Jia Huan's eyes, "suddenly" said: "So that's the case, it seems that I wrongly blamed the second sister-in-law."

Wang Xifeng sighed and said: "Thanks to my wife's trust, let me take care of the monthly money. Everyone thinks this is a fat job, but they don't know the difficulties. It is said that if you are not in charge of the family, you don't know how much money you pay. Your aunt also quarreled with me yesterday, but I don't know that I am also full of grievances. The government does not grant me money, and I have no money to send monthly money to everyone. I can't let me pay for it myself? I will post it, so you don’t have to worry, Brother Huan.”

Tsk tsk, what Wang Xifeng said was impeccable, even Jia Huan couldn't find fault. Of course, Jia Huan didn't come here this time to fight Wang Xifeng, but to give Wang Xifeng an ultimatum. As the saying goes, "before the soldiers, the master is famous, so he said lightly: "If that's the case, then let's not mention the monthly money. How can the second sister-in-law of Lian explain the matter of eating leftovers in the kitchen?"

Qin Keqing looked at Wang Xifeng in surprise, if what Jia Huan said was true, then Wang Xifeng had gone too far.

Wang Xifeng pretended to be surprised and said: "There is such a thing? Wang's daughter-in-law, you are in charge of the kitchen, can there be such a thing?"

The person who came to Wang's house immediately shook his head and said, "There is absolutely no such thing, unless the people in the kitchen did it behind my back."

Wang Xifeng said angrily: "It's okay, check it out later and report it to me. If there is such a thing about farting, I will never let it go lightly!"

"Yes, this slave girl is going to the kitchen to ask questions. These whores are really crazy. If they are found out, they must be stripped of their skin." Lai Wang's house rolled up his sleeves pretendingly, and ran out.

Jia Huan watched the master and servant play with cold eyes until Laiwang's daughter-in-law ran out, and then said: "It turns out that Lian's second sister-in-law didn't know about it. It seems that I blamed Lian's second sister-in-law again."

Wang Xifeng said generously: "Don't blame Brother Huan, I would be angry if it were another, don't worry, I will give you an explanation when I find out."

"In this case, there will be the second sister-in-law of Lao, Huan'er will leave!" Jia Huan stood up and said goodbye after finishing speaking.

Seeing Jia Huan walking away in disgrace, Wang Xifeng was so proud that she almost laughed out loud, the youngest Huan, who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, wanted to fight with me, so go eat your leftovers honestly, if you don't bow your head and admit cowardice, don't even think about having a good day.
