The King of Beijing in the Red Mansion

At this time, Yingchun, Xichun and Xing Yuyan were all gathered in the side room.

Yingchun raised her bright eyes from under her willow-leaf brows and glanced at the sky outside the window. The scorching sun gradually moved westward and was no longer as bright as before. She couldn't help but ask, "Why hasn't my brother-in-law come back yet?"

They all gathered here because Shui Rong wanted to take them to the palace, but they didn't expect that they had been waiting for such a long time and still didn't see anyone. If they kept wasting time, they might get back to the palace by the time it was dark.

Daiyu sat on a brocade cushion, her eyes full of autumn water as if in the mist, and she snorted tenderly, "Who knows, brother might be tripped up by one of his sisters, and not care about us grass and trees."

After being comforted by the young man, Daiyu no longer cared about the broken spiritual jade. However, she couldn't help feeling a little annoyed when she saw the young man "throwing" them here.

What on earth has my brother been busy with?

Yingchun glanced at Daiyu and said, "I heard that Ronger is looking for her brother-in-law. I think he has something important to discuss. Let's just wait."

Daiyu couldn't deny it. She was just talking casually. After all, all the sisters in the Duke's Mansion were here, so she wouldn't be hindered by anything.

But Daiyu didn't expect that Shui Rong was indeed tripped up, but it was not by her sister, but by her sister-in-law.

Pursing her pink lips, Daiyu looked at the chess record in Yingchun's hand with her bright eyes. Her heart moved slightly, and she suddenly said, "We are waiting anyway, Second Girl, how about we play a game of chess?"

I don't know when the young man will come, and I won't feel at peace waiting like this. So I just play a game of chess with Yingchun to pass the time.

Yingchun was moved when she heard this. Just as she was about to agree, the maid outside the room announced, "The prince is here."

Hearing this, Yingchun's bright eyes under her willow-leaf brows lit up. She no longer cared about Daiyu and looked towards the door. Daiyu probably did the same.

Xichun, on the other hand, although her heart was slightly moved, she still remained calm.

As for Xing Xiyan, there was a complicated look between the girl's eyebrows and her heart was filled with an indescribable strangeness.

Ever since the scene she saw outside the Rongcui Temple, the girl has been unable to forget it for a long time, especially when Miaoyu mentioned it to her, it made her even more uneasy.

Fortunately, they returned to the Duke Rong's Mansion within two days after that, which made the situation less awkward.

But now, thinking of the young man's figure, she couldn't help but think of that smooth area, which made the girl's pretty face slightly warm up and ripples in her heart gradually appear.

Soon, Shui Rong walked in, with a relaxed look on his warm face. He looked at Daiyu and the others in the room and said, "We have wasted some time. Let's go back to the palace."

Oh, I was too willful and didn't pay attention to the time.

Hearing this, Yingchun and the others didn't need to say much. Instead, Daiyu slightly pouted her pink lips and snorted softly, so delicately that it sounded like golden beads falling on a jade plate. It was hard not to hear it.

Shui Rong raised his eyes to glance at the pretty girl, raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn't say anything.

She has to go into the palace, and it won’t be easy to deal with her.

One day, Lin Daiyu's sharp tongue will surely be blocked.

Chapter 403 Li Wan: Did Sister Feng have a brain injury?

Rongguo Gongfu, Rongqing Hall.

Although the incident of the broken spiritual jade had passed, Grandmother Jia was still feeling depressed. When she had nothing to do, she invited people to play dominoes. Naturally, Lady Wang and Sister Feng accompanied them, and since Aunt Xue was missing in the Duke's Mansion, she asked the pretty widow Li Wan to join in.

On the table, everyone secretly gave way to Lady Jia, which allowed her to make a fortune. After a short while, a small mountain of silver was piled up in front of her.

At this time, Jia's mother felt relieved. She looked up at Mrs. Wang and suddenly asked, "Zheng'er's wife, is Baoyu still making a fuss?"

Although Baoyu didn't care about the broken spiritual jade, Daiyu, Yingchun and other sisters left the Duke's Mansion on the same day, which made Baoyu very sad. He came to find Lady Jia and acted coquettishly.

But this time, Grandmother Jia did not spoil Baoyu.

Feng Jieer and Li Wan were not concerned with the matter and seemed not to have heard it. They were concentrating on rubbing the dominoes in their hands.

Mrs. Wang's heart sank slightly, but she remained calm and replied, "Madam, Baoyu is no longer making trouble and is now going to school."

The word "noisy" expressed a different meaning than before, which made Mrs. Wang vaguely aware of the change in Lady Jia's attitude towards Baoyu.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang felt a little bitter, but she could do nothing about it. After all, it was Baoyu who was so stupid as to smash the spiritual jade.

Grandmother Jia nodded slightly but didn't say anything more.

In fact, Grandmother Jia has quite complicated feelings towards Baoyu now. He was a unicorn child who was "born with a jade in his mouth", but in the blink of an eye he has fallen into the mortal world. The gap caused by the breakdown of faith that had lasted for more than ten years can be imagined.

But after all, he is a grandson who grew up by her side, and she loves him deeply. It is impossible for her to neglect Baoyu because of this. In her heart, she still loves Baoyu and hopes that he can have a bright future.

Madam Wang's eyes narrowed slightly, and she changed the subject, saying, "My daughter-in-law plans to visit the eldest girl at the palace tomorrow. Does the old lady have anything to say to the eldest girl?"

Speaking of the eldest maid, a smile appeared on Grandmother Jia's old face, and she said, "The eldest maid has always been tolerant and sensible. What can an old woman tell her? Just let her rest assured and take care of the baby."

What could Grandmother Jia have to worry about regarding Yuanchun, the granddaughter she had personally raised? The only thing that concerned her was the issue of offspring. If this baby was a boy, it would be a perfect marriage.

Mrs. Wang nodded slightly, responded, and said no more.

Even without the "Magic Jade", as long as the eldest girl is there, her second house will remain the same, or even better than before. There is nothing to worry about.

Seeing that Jia's mother's expression had improved, Feng Jieer suddenly smiled and said, "By the way, old ancestor, there is something I would like to ask you to decide."

Grandmother Jia glanced at Sister Feng, her cloudy eyes flickered slightly, and she said, "What trouble are you going to make again, little Feng?"

As for Feng Jieer, ever since the incident of loan sharking came to light, she has become much more honest and there is nothing much to worry about. The only thing that makes Feng Jieer so serious must be the relationship between husband and wife.

After all, they lived in the same mansion, and the fact that Jia Lian and Feng Jie were indifferent to each other could not be concealed. However, Grandmother Jia knew very well that she should not interfere in the affairs between husband and wife, so she pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Sister Feng narrowed her narrow eyes slightly, her charming face full of smiles, and said: "Oh, old ancestor, you are wronging me. This is a good thing, a great thing for our Duke's Mansion to have a new baby."

"Oh"

Grandmother Jia's eyes fell on Sister Feng's flat belly under the table and she asked in surprise, "Feng girl, are you pregnant?"

Among the women in the Rongguo Mansion, Lady Wang from the second house is already old, so it is definitely impossible that it is her. If the generous Lady Xing was pregnant, Sister Feng would not take it so seriously. And Li Wan is a widow.

If there were to be a new baby in the Duke's Mansion, it would only be Sister Feng.

When Feng Jieer heard this, a gloomy look welled up in her heart, which disappeared in an instant. She immediately said angrily, "Grandfather, what are you talking about? It was the Second Master who raised a child outside. She is already one month old."

Jia Mu: "."

Madam Wang: “.”

Li Wan: “.”

Seeing that several people were looking at her with surprised eyes, Sister Feng blinked and said playfully, "What's wrong? There's a new baby in our Duke's Mansion. Isn't this a good thing?"

Grandmother Jia's eyes fixed, and she replied, "Feng girl is right, this is a good thing."

When Mrs. Wang saw that Lady Jia responded, she didn't need to say much. However, Li Wan, with her bright eyes under her willow-leaf eyebrows, couldn't help but glance at Sister Feng, and a strange feeling surged in her heart.

Everyone in the Duke's Mansion knew that Feng Jie was jealous. Whenever Lian Ge'er got close to a maid, she would cause trouble. Now that Lian Ge'er had a child outside and she was even pregnant, Feng Jie'er not only did not make a fuss, but also acted as if everyone was celebrating.

Is this still the Feng Jieer she knew? Did she get a brain injury from hitting her head last time?

Feng Jie ignored the surprised looks of the others, stared at Grandmother Jia, and continued, "Grandfather, this is what I think. The baby is our Jia family's bloodline, and it's not good for her to be left out in the open. We should just bring her home, give her a name, and let her rest assured to take care of the baby in the home. What do you think?"

"."

After a brief silence, Grandmother Jia smiled, breaking the silence, and said, "Look, Miss Feng has finally gained experience and has become more generous."

Mrs. Wang responded and said, "The old lady taught you well."

Hearing this, Sister Feng showed a trace of embarrassment on her bright jade cheeks, and said angrily: "Grandfather, please don't tease me. I am just... I was narrow-minded and intolerant in the past, which is why I am so cold now.

Remember what our ancestors taught us, that those things outside are just toys, just let men play with them, and their beauty and love will fade in just a few years.

Even if she is pregnant, she will be raised by my side after the birth, so there is no need to worry about it."

When Grandmother Jia heard this, she was satisfied. She looked at Sister Feng with more appreciation and said, "That's right, it's amazing that you still remembered it. If you had let it go earlier, you wouldn't have made such a fuss."

As for what happened next, Grandmother Jia didn't know how to say much. She couldn't say that if it weren't for Sister Feng's usual jealousy, the couple wouldn't have become so estranged.

After a pause, Jia's mother said, "Since you have come to your senses, it's up to you. Bring her to me someday to have a look."

Even though Grandmother Jia didn't like the eldest son of the family, Jia Lian was her grandson. It wasn't a big deal that Aunt Feng had no children. Now that she had a son, how could she not take a look at him?

"Hey, ancestor, I'll do it right away."

Feng Jieer responded hurriedly, and a fierce look flashed in her narrow and long phoenix eyes under her two curved eyebrows.

After the story was told, they continued playing dominoes until Lady Jia became a little tired and then they dispersed.

Sister Feng returned to her own room, sat down on a brocade cushion, and stretched her tired body. Her graceful figure was as graceful as a slender lotus with distinct branches and joints.

Taking a sip of the tea from the table, Sister Feng ordered, "Ping'er, go and ask the Second Master to come over."

Ping'er's eyebrows trembled slightly, and she said softly, "Grandma, the Second Master... He is not at home."

Hearing this, Sister Feng raised her eyebrows slightly, a layer of frost appeared on her charming face, and she snorted coldly: "This bastard is really concerned about me, and can't leave me for a moment. Why didn't he care about me like this when I was pregnant with you before?"

Jia Lian was not at home at the moment, so it was easy to guess where he could go. Ping'er's hesitation to speak made Feng Jieer even more certain.

Jia Lian must have gone to that bitch's place.

In fact, Feng Jieer had been pregnant before, but she didn't keep the baby. At that time, Jia Lian didn't seem to care about her. He even took advantage of her physical discomfort to steal someone else's wife.

Such obvious favoritism made Feng Jieer angry, and at the same time, a trace of resentment welled up in the depths of her heart. It also made Feng Jieer understand that the thing in that slut's belly must not be kept.

Ping'er saw this and a hint of unnaturalness appeared on her pretty face. She changed the subject and said, "Grandma, why did you let that bastard from outside into the house?"

Previously, Ping'er was serving at Lady Jia's place, and of course she heard that Sister Feng wanted to invite someone into the house.

Ping'er knew her own grandmother very well. If she didn't eat that person alive, she would be considered kind-hearted. How could she be so kind as to take her into the house?

I guess Sister Feng has some plans in mind.

Sister Feng looked up at Ping'er, but she didn't think of hiding anything. She said sinisterly, "What do you know? Jia Lian, that filthy fellow, hid the person outside. We can't do anything about it. But if he enters the mansion, hmph, he will be at our mercy."

Ping'er suddenly understood what was going on when she heard this.

Just as Sister Feng said, they really couldn't do anything when the person was outside, but in the Duke's Mansion, grandma had been in charge for so long, it wasn't easy for her to do some small things.

As for why Feng Jieer didn't ask someone directly, it was because she knew that the Second Master would most likely not agree to this matter, so she asked the old lady to come forward and leave the Second Master with no room for rebuttal.

Pursing her pink lips, Ping'er clenched the handkerchief in her hand and reminded carefully: "Grandma, I'm afraid it will hurt the relationship between you and the Second Master."

Bringing someone into the mansion to cause trouble would most likely wear out the last bit of affection between Grandma and the Second Master. Ping'er didn't want Fengjie to do anything stupid.

Feng Jieer disagreed when she heard this. A layer of frost appeared on her bright and beautiful face like a peony. She said sternly, "If that bastard had any feelings, I wouldn't have done this.

Humph, if he doesn't remember our past, don't blame me for being ruthless."

For Feng Jieer, Jia Lian's indifference broke her heart. She had to watch Jia Lian live a smooth life while she herself was in a mess, making a fool of herself.

She couldn't swallow this.

When Ping'er saw the murderous look on Fengjie'er's face, her heart tightened involuntarily, and a look of deep worry appeared on her pretty face.

No, I can't just stand there and watch. If I leave my grandma alone, I'm afraid she will really cause trouble.
