Red Mansion, Ningfu Scholarly Family

Chapter 251 Sin, Sin

……

Fengzao Palace.

Yuanchun once again saw Lady Jia who came to pay her respects to the Empress. This time, she finally got a chance and went to find Lady Jia who had come out to relieve herself.

"old lady."

Grandmother Jia was slightly startled and looked at the person who came.

Although he hadn't seen his granddaughter for five or six years, he could still recognize her at a glance.

"Big girl."

"Ancestor."

Yuanchun walked forward with tears in her eyes and pulled Lady Jia's hand.

Grandmother Jia held Yuanchun tightly, feeling both happy and excited.

It is said that when we meet again after a long separation, we can express our true feelings.

After a while.

Grandmother Jia pulled Yuanchun and asked carefully, "Are you okay in here? His Majesty, has he been looking for you again?"

Yuanchun shook her head: "...I don't want to stay in the palace, so I rejected the emperor."

"You are such a silly girl."

Grandmother Jia said earnestly, "The emperor has high hopes for you. This is a blessing that you have cultivated for many lifetimes. How can you just throw it away? Listen to your grandmother. Now that you can see the emperor, you should admit your mistakes quickly."

In the beginning, she made up her mind to send Yuanchun into the palace, wasn't it just for a chance at the wealth and honor of being a royal relative?

Now that wealth and honor are right in front of him, Yuanchun gives them away.

Grandmother Jia felt so upset.

"Don't be afraid of Jing'er from the East Palace. When you become a royal concubine in the future, he will still have to bow to you when he sees you."

Yuanchun lowered her head and said, "Grandfather, the emperor is the emperor after all. How could he possibly see me again if I refused him once? So..."

"Silly girl." Grandmother Jia interrupted Yuanchun and said seriously, "I have lived for sixty or seventy years. I know men's hearts better than you do. The more they can't get it, the more they want it. Since the emperor has looked for you once, he will come again. You just need to wait in the palace with peace of mind."

Yuanchun still shook her head: "The Empress Dowager has already given me the gospel some time ago. I can go home after the New Year. The Empress Dowager has said so, it is not easy to go back on her word."

Grandmother Jia then remembered the time she went to the palace and talked to the Empress Dowager in a daze...

"Hey!"

Grandmother Jia slapped her forehead.

"It's all Jing Ge's fault for obstructing us!"

"He just can't stand seeing our family doing well!"

Yuanchun has been in the Empress's palace for these years. Although she has not held a high position, she has seen a lot of intrigues. Therefore, she understands Jia Jing's approach very well and said with a smile: "Grandfather, there are reasons for respecting uncle. Now that he is the patriarch, our family should just follow suit and respect uncle."

"Follow him... Humph! Wouldn't our family have to live in a broken cave?"

"He only has eyes for Rong'er! He never cares about your brother Baoyu. And your mother has been locked up in the small Buddhist temple in the backyard for several years."

"what!"

Yuanchun was shocked.

"Madam, why...why was she?"

Grandmother Jia said, "It's probably because of the Wang family's affairs. Your uncle Jing wants to deal with your uncle Wang Ziteng, so naturally he wants to deal with your mother as well."

Yuanchun: "..."

Grandmother Jia said earnestly, "Now you know, only if you take the position of Imperial Concubine can you save your mother and give Baoyu a good future."

"Otherwise, your mother might have to stay in the temple for the rest of her life, and Baoyu would never be able to hold his head up."

"me……"

Yuanchun was very confused for a moment, and her eyes were full of confusion.

Family, mother, my own happiness...

How to choose?!
……

In Ningguo Mansion.

Jia Rong didn't need to get up early, so he slept until dawn.

There was a sweet little Xiangling beside her, sleeping soundly.

It’s just that he couldn’t help himself last night…

Sin, sin.

Fortunately, Xiangling is older than Qingwen and has passed the age of coming of age.

"Ai!"

After Jia Rong changed his clothes, he gently pushed Xiangling.

Xiangling opened one eye in a daze, her eyes were still confused, as if she was neither awake nor awake.

"They will be coming in soon."

Jia Rong pointed outside the window and could already hear Qingwen and Xiaoxiao's voices.

Xiangling finally came to her senses, her face red as blood.

"Master, I..."

Jia Rong: "Does it still hurt?"

Xiangling nodded slightly: "Some."

"I don't dare to move."

Jia Rong: “…”

I can only blame myself for being too rough last night. I forgot that she was still a child.

You must be careful next time.

"Shall I ask Xiao Xiao to help you?"

"No."

Xiangling quickly buried her head in the quilt.

Jia Rong: "So what?"

Xiangling's low voice came out from under the quilt.

"Master, go out first and block them."

"I'll just take a break."

"Ok."

Jia Rong nodded and went to the outer room.

Qingwen walked in from outside with a smile, looked inside and said with a smile: "Where is Xiangling? Why isn't she up so late? Let me go and tease her."

"Ai!"

Jia Rong grabbed the man.

"how?"

Qingwen turned around and looked at Jia Rong in confusion.

Jia Rong said seriously: "She is injured."

"Ah?" Qingwen asked hurriedly, "Where are you hurt? Is it serious?"

Jia Rong: "It shouldn't be a big deal..."

Qingwen: "I'll go take a look."

Jia Rong: “No need…”

Qingwen: “Why?”

At this time, Xiaoxiao walked in from outside, glanced at Jia Rong lightly, pulled Qingwen over, and whispered a few words in her ear.

Qingwen's face immediately turned red.

When he looked at Jia Rong again, his eyes were full of...warning!
hum!

I am indeed a bad guy!
Just know how to bully Xiangling.

You better be careful next time!
Xiangling walked out by herself at this time, taking small steps, lowering her head, with a red face, just like a bullied young wife.

"Master, you are too cruel. I am still young and don't know how to cherish women!" Xiaoxiao quietly twisted Jia Rong's waist.

very sour.

It hurts.

Jia Rong grimaced in pain.

Sister!

You're using too much force!
Did you use the grappling technique?

After a while, Ping Er also came in and asked with a smile, "What's going on? The room is so sour so early in the morning. Who is jealous?"

Qingwen said, "It's all crooked, all over the floor."

Ping Er covered her mouth and sneered, "I think yours is crooked."

Qingwen said, "You are the one who is crooked!"

"Ahem." Jia Rong coughed and said with a smile, "Today is New Year's Day, let's talk about something happy instead of being jealous all day long."

Ping Er smiled and said, "It's good to be festive. Master, please give us each a New Year's red envelope, a big one."

Qingwen: "Okay!"

Xiao Xiao: “I agree!”

Xiangling: "..."

Sure enough, red envelopes are not everything, but not having red envelopes is absolutely impossible.

After giving each of his four maids a big red envelope to appease them, Jia Rong came to the outside of the yard.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year.

The master who had gone to court would come back and offer sacrifices to the ancestors again, and then have a family banquet to celebrate the reunion.

By then, all the men, women, young and old in the Jia family will come. The scene will be grand, and some things naturally need to be prepared in advance.

Jia Rong used to only know how to study and didn't know much about such things, so he had to go to the West Mansion to find the "chief steward Jia Lian" to do it.

In Jia Lian's courtyard in Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Lian, Feng Ji, and Jia Lian's concubine were all there, and it seemed that they had a reunion night on New Year's Eve.

"Second uncle, second aunt, second young aunt."

"Giggle."

Jia Lian's concubine was amused by Jia Rong's words "second aunt".

Sister Feng glanced at Jia Rong lightly.

Jia Lian laughed and said, "Brother Rong is here. Come and sit down. I want to tell you something."

Jia Rong asked, "What's the matter?"

Jia Lian said seriously: "After a night of careful consideration, I have made up my mind!"
