The Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 130
Probably Mrs. Wang was ashamed to exchange the pot of jade and emerald trees for the large coral of the Xing family, so she took out a frame of four red sandalwood screens from the only three or four remaining treasures of the Zhen family.The cloud gauze fan as thin as cicada's wings depicts the scene of Wuling people fishing along the stream. It is a fairyland on earth with delicious grass and colorful fallen flowers.

This fine red sandalwood has not been seen for many years.

Mrs. Wang originally planned to leave this for Baoyu to decorate the new house when she got married, but now she took it out, it was so painful!

"These two add up, at least it is worth 4 to [-] taels of silver, and we are old relatives with the Xing family. Since the uncle and the family entered the capital, we have been in close contact. I think, the uncle and wife can tell the difference." For those who matter, as long as you patiently tell your uncle and wife that we are doing nothing but for the future of the children, can uncle and wife still refute the old lady's face?" Mrs. Wang said persuasively: "Although Baoyu is not your real brother, But you lost your mother when you were young, and I only raised you as my own daughter, just like Baoyu, who was born to the same mother."

When Wang Xifeng saw Mrs. Wang say this, she couldn't help but smiled, and said with a forced smile, "I will remember it clearly even if my wife doesn't say it. If Brother Bao is going to be successful, I am the cousin who is happier than anyone else. Ma'am Don't annoy me. To be honest, if the coral tree is mine, let alone exchange it, I would just raise my hands high and give it to Brother Bao. Unfortunately, it's not that my uncle and wife are separated from our house Level, I can only say that I am doing my best, but my wife, don't hold out too much hope."

Sister Feng brought these two things out of the Rongguo Mansion, and Ping'er in the carriage couldn't help asking: "Grandma really intends to ask my uncle's house to exchange things? I don't think my uncle and wife may be willing! Don't be unflattering, just take a look." The ashes of the nose!"

Wang Xifeng sneered, Danfeng squinted, and looked coldly at her confidant girl: "You really think your grandma is an idiot? The second wife is willing to speak up about such things, but I have no face to ask for it."

"I also persuade grandma that we left that place anyway, and now we have nothing to hold in their hands, so why bother to find this uncomfortable? The uncle and wife's family are kind to us. During the days when grandma went to the imperial mausoleum, our eldest sister will I live in Xing's house, and I heard from the nanny that eating and drinking is a rare treat, haven't you seen grandma? Our eldest sister has gained a little weight!"

Hearing what Ping'er said, Wang Xifeng thought of her precious daughter, and couldn't help smiling: "Our sister Qiao is also a fool, and my uncle and wife sent Zhengde to play with her because she was afraid that she would be alone. Sister Qiao didn't follow anyone, she called 'Brother Zhengde' as soon as she opened her eyes! Don't you think this is fate? When I lived in the Rongguo Mansion, I often asked the nanny to hug her to play with Lan Xiaozi. I don't see our eldest sister and Lang Geer being so close."

Ping'er couldn't stop nodding, with a smile in his eyes: "Grandma made a mistake, now I should call His Highness the Fifth Prince."

"Oh, look at my memory, why did I forget about this!" Wang Xifeng slapped her forehead, not sure if she really forgot or pretended, "The fifth prince came back from Mount Tai, that's because the name was written in the genealogy. Your little master is the future."

Sister Feng pointed up with a single finger, and said mysteriously: "It is not impossible to sit in the world. You don't see that among these princes, he is the only one who has won the favor of the Supreme Emperor? The education of the uncle and wife's family It's not comparable to other families. The Ouyang family thought they were His Highness's uncle's family, so they wanted to steal the credit for all these years? Bah, that's a beautiful idea! The uncle's wife's sons and daughters are not such ungrateful things! Just watch it, the more happy the Ouyang family is, the more bitter the future will be."

Seeing Sister Feng rubbing her sore neck, Ping'er hurriedly took out the pillow on her back and put it on Sister Feng's back: "Grandma, I don't know if I should say something."

Wang Xifeng glanced at Ping'er, and sneered: "Little hoof, just say what you have to say, you can always hide and hide like those bastards, don't you say no, I still want to kill you!" You can't do it?"

Ping'er smiled shyly. She also knew that Second Mistress never regarded herself as an outsider. Solve my doubts for me, if it doesn't please you, just ignore it and let the wind blow away. I thought to myself, our sister Qiao never clings to anyone easily, except for the fifth prince, who used to live in that mansion When I was reading, I often heard Baoyu and Miss Lin read, "Lang rides a bamboo horse, and grows green plums around the bed. Living together for thousands of miles, two little ones have no doubts." Our sister Qiao and the fifth prince are playmates who grew up together as childhood sweethearts. !"

Wang Xifeng couldn't help laughing and spat: "You don't know even half of the Chinese characters, and you're so polite! You're not afraid of making people hear jokes!"

"Who is laughing at me! Although I am illiterate, I have been with grandma for all these years, but I have good eyesight. Grandma looks at the fifth prince with unusual eyes. Could it be that I guessed it wrong!"

Wang Xifeng smiled without saying a word, and Ping'er said again: "Grandma has to think about it carefully, if she has this thought, she can't be alienated from her uncle and wife's family. Now everyone says that the Xing family is down and out, even my uncle and grandpa have been dismissed." We went to the armory, but we can't show the slightest estrangement, otherwise it won't cool the hearts of the uncle's family?"

"You still use your little hoof to teach? If I can't even understand this, it would be in vain for me to be the housekeeper and grandma in Rongguo Mansion for these years. It's not that I'm talking crazy, there is no one in the two mansions combined." You can have my insight! I always said that the old lady is far-sighted and a person of great wisdom, but now that I think about it, the old lady asked me to go and get some coral trees with my uncle and wife today. This is not a wise decision. The old lady and the wife dared to go to the Xing family to ask for it so blatantly, it was nothing more than to see that he was down and down, and wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble. Just wait, our fifth prince will have a bright future once he becomes an adult. Sister Qiao is my daughter , I will naturally plan one or two for her."

Wang Xifeng's ambition has never been small, but unfortunately she is not a man, otherwise it will be a matter of time before she achieves a career with her ruthlessness.

When Sister Feng was young, she also had the idea of ​​entering the palace, but her parents died early. Sister Feng and her brother Wang Ren lived with Wang Ziteng as husband and wife. At that time, the Supreme Emperor's whirlwind disease became more and more serious. How could he have the mood to expand the harem?
Otherwise, according to Sister Feng's talent and appearance, is there any reason for the Supreme Emperor not to like her?

This matter has always been a scar on Wang Xifeng's heart, it's a pity that it almost didn't become a grudge!

Getting married to the fifth prince might not be a bad thing, as long as the fifth prince can still listen to his uncle, wife and younger sister Xing in a few years, Sister Feng is almost [-]% sure that their family will have a concubine, isn't it also a matter of honor to the ancestors?

Let's say that Feng girl was making her mind on Zhengde, Jia Baoyu sent his servant Mingyan to drive over on a horse with red jujube and colorful bridle.

"Second Mistress, wait a moment. Our young master is nagging, saying that he has something urgent to tell Second Mistress." Mingyan tightened the reins of the horse, and stopped firmly beside Sister Feng's carriage, holding her horse behind the curtain through the curtain. Jia Baoyu told Wang Xifeng what he said.

"Our second master said that he is all to blame for this matter, but I beg the second grandma to take this matter for the time being because of the friendship we have gotten along with for many years, and we will talk about whether it is successful or not. Our second master is not for anything else. I'm afraid that Second Mistress can't do anything, and the old lady and the second wife will force Miss Lin to ask for it again."

Through the curtain, Wang Xifeng curled her lips in disdain, and said to Ping'er in a low voice: "Baoyu can't change this problem of caring for fragrance and cherishing jade."

Ping'er laughed: "If he changes, he won't be the character of Second Master Bao. Who in the Grand View Garden doesn't praise him for this?"

"Don't mention this, those little girls saw Baoyu as if they had met Tang Monk, and they praised him with good things. Why don't you see the second master praise him? Let me say that Baoyu will catch fire sooner or later."

Mingyan stood beside the carriage, waited for a long time but did not see the Second Mistress delivering a message from inside, so she bravely laughed and said, "Second Mistress also gave this slave a promise, so it would be nice if the slave saw Second Master again." Confession is."

After a while, Ping'er lifted a small gap in the curtain of the carriage, stared at Ming Yan and said coldly: "Our grandma knows what the second master is thinking, just tell him when you go back, the second grandma will discuss it and tell him not to worry about it." hanging heart."

After finishing speaking, he put down the curtain, shouted to the coachman and set off.

Mingyan stared at Sister Feng's carriage for a long time, but finally had no choice, so she went back to Rongguo Mansion to report to Jia Baoyu.

Wang Xifeng thought about it for half an afternoon at home, and in the early morning of the second day, she deliberately brought sister Qiao to Fengwei Hutong.The door of Xing's house was closed tightly, and it took a long time to knock on the door before looking out from the inside.Seeing that it was Lian's second grandma, a frequent guest of the house, she smiled happily and hurriedly opened the door to welcome her in.

"What are you doing here? Why is the door locked? I almost didn't come in!"

Mrs. Lu was not there, so she went to Mrs. Xu's place. Xiuyan was talking to the stewards of the inner and outer courtyards when she suddenly heard that Sister Feng had arrived, so she sent them to perform their duties, and brought Meilian and Fangguan with her. Meeting guests in the main hall.

Sister Feng's eyes fell on the last Fangguan, and she couldn't help but wonder: "Why does this girl look so familiar?"

"Rongguo Mansion disbanded the theater troupe. I heard that most of the twelve little opera singers didn't want to go home. The wives of your family are generous, and they all gave away. They gave a girl called Ouguan. Now the government Go up and live there, and take her back." Xiuyan pointed to the little girl standing behind her: "This is Fangguan, I originally declined, but Zhengde insisted on keeping her, I saw that she was a little cute, so I agreed. Who would have thought that Zhengde only brought Zhuaner with him when he entered the palace, and Fangguan still gave me orders."

Wang Xifeng nodded: "It's not that I praised Zhuan'er, she doesn't talk much, but she is very steady. You sent her into the palace with you and it was the right thing to do!"

Wang Xifeng didn't care much about Fangguan, she just regarded her as an ordinary girl who gave away at will, but he didn't know that when Fangguan sang in school, he often heard those women in Lixiangyuan cursing Sister Feng behind her back. She decided that Wang Xifeng was a murderous woman with a very bad character, and she felt very disdainful.

Sister Feng opened her mouth, her face full of embarrassment.

Xiuyan guessed that this was something she had to ask herself, so she said with a smile: "Second Sister-in-law, just say what you want, don't we two still divide each other?"

"Hey, it really makes my sister-in-law feel ashamed to say this." Sister Feng hurriedly explained how Jia Baoyu was selected to be the attendant of the third prince, how the old lady and Mrs. Wang discussed gifts, and how they made wrong decisions. Hit the Xing family, told Xiuyan one by one, and said with guilt: "I'm in a dilemma now, originally I wanted to hide it from you and my aunt, and I planned to send it back in two days, so I just told them no Done. But now"

Wang Xifeng smiled wryly: "Baoyu chased people and sent me to make me understand that this matter of daring love cannot be separated from Miss Lin. I have no choice but to ask you what to do."

Xiuyan frowned tightly, Meilian hurriedly drove Fangguan out.

Fangguan was very upset when he heard that Meilian slammed her like a fly.Anyway, I was also rewarded by the old lady, and the Xing family is too much, how can I compare her with those little maids?

Fangguan stomped indignantly and went to the corridor to wait. Meilian, the little pepper, gave her a hard look, and turned her attention to serving Xiuyan.

After sending the outsiders away, Xiuyan said in a deep voice: "I'm not afraid to tell my second sister-in-law the truth, the coral tree was given to our wife by the old ship lord, and he was asking for the blessings of our wife and his son. She is very heavy now. , the coral tree is in front of our eyes every day, needless to say, our wife only looks at it a few times, and feels comfortable. No matter how precious the things the Jia family wants to exchange are, even this kind of heart cannot beat its value. "

Wang Xifeng said embarrassingly: "I don't know what the eldest sister said? Just as my sister-in-law didn't mention this matter, don't mention it in front of your uncle and wife, lest she be unhappy, and your second brother and I will also have an embarrassing face!"

It is impossible for Sister Feng to have anything to say about this matter, who knows that the words just fell, Xiuyan smiled and said: "Sister-in-law is a sensible person, and she has nothing to say about being good to our family. If I make my sister-in-law embarrassing in front of the old lady because of this, It’s a disappointment to our previous friendship. Forget it, I’ll give you the coral tree!”

Both Ping'er and Sister Feng were overjoyed.

"However. I have a condition. It will only count if the Jia family agrees."

"Just say what my sister says, I'll do my best."

Xiuyan pursed her lips and smiled: "I heard people say that those underage princes all live in Beiyuan, the eldest prince occupies half of it, and the rest of the brothers are very crowded. The fourth prince's health is never good, and he lives with the empress. In the Queen's Palace, we dare not stand shoulder to shoulder, but Zhengde was allocated the coldest palace, which is somewhat unreasonable."

"Big Sister Means"

"My sister-in-law knows that we have nothing to say in the court, and there is no one in the palace. Only the empress is favored, and maybe she can say a few good words for us Zhengde. I will ask the concubine Yuan to help me. At any rate, Zhengde lives more comfortably. , and our hearts are at peace."

Wang Xifeng looked embarrassed: "This matter must have been arranged by the empress alone, will the concubine Yuan be willing to help?"

Xiuyan smiled in her heart: Of course she will, Jia Yuanchun will die soon, for her dearest brother Jia Baoyu, Concubine Yuan will definitely compete with the queen in front of the emperor.
