The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 538
As soon as Tanchun said this, before Jia Zheng could open his mouth, the old lady above said yes again and again.

Seeing this, Jia Zheng felt he could not contradict his mother, so he nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the old lady was not in good spirits - Jia She was pissed off yesterday - the father and daughter, together with Li Wan, left the main room.

Seeing his father's uncertain face from the side, Tanchun knew that he must not be embarrassed to ask Jiao Shun for help, so he couldn't help persuading him: "After all, this matter is related to my brother's future, let alone Yong Yi Bo. Bian'er may not have a backup, the master should make a decision early."

Jia Zheng glanced at her, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if the daughter and son were switched, why should he worry about having no successor?
But even though he knew his daughter's words were right, he still couldn't change his indecisive and face-saving nature.

At the moment, he only said perfunctorily: "Because this matter is too big to allow mistakes, I must carefully consider it as a father."

Saying that, before Tanchun persuaded him again, he turned his left hand behind his back and went to look after himself.

Tanchun was slightly short, watching his father's back disappear outside the courtyard gate, but he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling wryly.

At this time Li Wan stepped forward to hold her, and reminded her in a low voice: "Instead of wasting your time talking to the master, you might as well talk to your wife—she always treats Brother Bao as a pain in the eye, so she won't be like the master." There are so many scruples."

Tanchun raised his eyebrows: "My wife still doesn't know about this?"

"It must be because I don't know it yet, otherwise I should have come here."

Li Wan said: "Yesterday my wife and eldest wife stayed in Zhuijinlou until nightfall. I think they were tired too. I haven't heard of her going out today."

When Tanchun heard the words, she hurriedly bid farewell to Li Wan, and rushed to the hut in Qingtang - she knew that Li Wan had always been unwilling to get involved in these matters, so naturally she would not drag her to go with her.

Speechless all the way.

When she arrived at the hut in Qingtang, she saw Caixia and Caiyun whispering their ears on the porch, so she raised her chin at the inner window: "Madam is there?"

"here I am."

Caixia hurriedly stepped forward to reply: "After my wife had breakfast, she chanted scriptures and prayed alone in the room—the girl came in such a hurry, but what's the matter with the second girl?"

"It has nothing to do with the second sister."

Tanchun said anxiously: "But it's an extremely important matter. Since my wife is at home, I'll go and tell her right away!"

With that said, he strode straight to the main room.

"Girl, girl!"

Caixia and Caiyun hurriedly chased up from behind, stopped Tanchun outside the door with their arms crossed, and explained with an apologetic smile: "My wife is most afraid of being disturbed by others when she is chanting scriptures and praying, except for her aunt who is a special case, even if the second grandma comes, she will also be disturbed." Just wait outside..."

"I said I have something urgent to report!"

Tan Chunmei stared wide-eyed, but immediately thought of the two cronies of Mrs. Wang, her attitude eased again, and she forced a smile: "Then I will trouble my sisters to report."

"no need!"

As soon as the words fell, Mrs. Wang's voice came from inside: "You wait in the living room for a while, I will go out after I finish reading this passage."

The voice sounded a little weird, but after all, it was through the door and window, and Tanchun couldn't tell where the specific blame was for a while, so he quickly responded respectfully, and then went into the living room to wait with his hands down.

Not much effort.

Madam Wang opened the door and came out, her face looked a little pale, but upon closer inspection she was covered with a thick layer of powder.

Tanchun was a little surprised, Mrs. Wang never liked heavy makeup, but why...

But when he thought about Li Wan's judgment, he mistakenly thought that Mrs. Wang had also lost her temper yesterday, so she temporarily changed her habit in order to hide the haggard look on her face.

Therefore, he hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and persuaded her softly: "Since the old lady has come forward to make the decision, she can't tolerate the old man messing around anymore—this is seeing that the second brother and the second sister are going to get married, and even sister Xiangyun wants to follow us. Married in the mansion, the wife must take care of her health and don't work too hard."

"Um……"

Mrs. Wang answered ambiguously, and sat down on the chair a little sorely, and then asked: "I heard that you have something important to do with me?"

"Exactly."

When Tanchun heard her mention the purpose of his trip, he hurriedly said: "Early this morning, Sister Lin and Sister Xiangyun went to Zhuijin Building. My sister-in-law and I heard that they were there, so we went to the old lady's courtyard first. But I don’t want to bump into…”

Hearing that she deleted the complicated and kept it simple, and said what happened just now, Mrs. Wang's originally divergent eyes immediately gathered together.

He straightened his body and pondered for a while, then asked: "From your point of view, is it suitable for your brother to become an official in an engineering school?"

"Of course it's appropriate!"

Tanchun insisted at first, and then explained: "If it is a political official like Siye or Chief Registrar, there may be something to discuss, but the doctor of Guozixue has always been an honorary title, which is almost the same as the title of a knight. It is much more expensive than ordinary noble titles—and with Brother Jiao taking care of him, it is expected that it will not be difficult for Brother Jiao to deal with it."

The brilliance in Mrs. Wang's eyes increased a bit, and she couldn't help getting up and asking: "There are indeed five grades?!"

"This……"

Tan Chun hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it may not be possible to completely copy Guozixue, but even if there are no fifth and sixth grades, there should always be seventh grades."

"Seven products?"

Mrs. Wang was a little disappointed. It seems that it is not difficult for a family like Rongguo Mansion to find a seventh-rank real job for the children of the family.

"The main reason is that Brother Jiao is taking care of me!"

Tanchun saw that she seemed to dislike being a small official, so he hurriedly said: "Although the second elder brother is smart, but he has never put his mind on it. There must be a process of adaptation at the beginning. With elder brother Jiao here, there is no need to worry about it." He made a mistake."

Mrs. Wang nodded slightly.

He got up and walked back and forth for a few steps, then asked: "With the relationship between the two families, there is no need to entrust Brother Shun for this matter, right?"

"Of course there is no need to ask!"

Tan Chun hurriedly explained: "It's actually the official position of Guozixue, and the official department still doesn't agree to add it - that Yong Yibo is probably trying to drag our family into the water, but our family is on top of it. If you can't do anything, in the end, you have to ask Brother Jiao to think of a way to turn this into a real thing, otherwise, our family will be reduced to a laughingstock!"

Only then did Mrs. Wang understand the point of the matter.

She is a woman after all, and she is slightly less sensitive to official matters than Jia Zheng, but unlike Jia Zheng, after fully understanding the urgency of this matter, Mrs. Wang said decisively: "Since that's the case, I'll go and tell the master, if he doesn't show up, I'll go to Jiao's house and ask for it, and I'll earn this position and face no matter what!"

Tanchun was overjoyed when he heard that, and the momentum in his heart finally came to the ground. He was about to lead the way, but he heard Mrs. Wang say that he had to tidy up a little and change his clothes before going out.

As she said that, she stopped in front of the separate meditation room again, and ordered Caixia to fetch a basin of warm water.

When Caixia came in with the water, Mrs. Wang refused to let her in, she just reached out to take it, then turned around and entered the room and closed the door behind her backhand.

Tanchun looked puzzled, so he turned his suspicious eyes to Caixia.

Caixia was already used to it, and immediately explained in a low voice: "The Buddha statue my wife bought recently, I heard that there are some taboos, so people are generally not allowed to enter or leave - it is a special case when my aunt is here."

Tanchun nodded dubiously, but he couldn't explore Mrs. Wang's secrets, so he chatted with Caixia indifferently.

At the same time, in the meditation room.

Mrs. Wang put the water basin on the ground, first dampened a towel to wipe off the thick powder on her face, revealing her melon-seeded face that had just subsided from the red tide, then used two fingers to twist out a chime mallet from under the altar, and threw it into the basin in disgust , and then poured in a handful of dirty and greasy pancreas powder.

After doing these two things, she let out a long breath.

Originally, she entered this meditation room to ponder over the weirdness between the Xing family and Wang Xifeng yesterday.

Although she had originally thought about letting Wang Xifeng go back to the big house when Baochai passed the door and gradually took over the housework—but she was not happy to see Wang Xifeng ease relations with the Xing family in advance.

Especially this relationship, which has eased without any sign and is inexplicable, so how can Madam Wang not be suspicious?
But when she became suspicious, she pondered for a long time but failed to guess one, two, three. Instead, her attention gradually shifted, first she thought of Baochai, who was going to pass in the next year, and then she thought of Aunt Xue.

Then, I started to look at myself and feel sorry for myself.

In the past, there was Aunt Xue, who could accompany her to say a few words of her heart, but now Xue's family has moved to the old house on Zijin Street, she is alone in this garden, how can she not feel lonely and cold?

And the more lonely you are, the more you can't help but think of those comforting things. It's like a raging fire wrapped in loneliness and coldness, which makes people upset and restless.

And then, she had a chime mallet made of yellow cypress wood in her hand...

Thinking of the panic and embarrassment when Tanchun was suddenly interrupted just now, Mrs. Wang couldn't help burning her face again, she hurriedly wiped it again with a towel, and said in a loud voice: "Take my blue-striped silver-edged shirt Here comes the white dress."

Caixia agreed outside, and as usual, the things were delivered to the door, and Mrs. Wang took them in and replaced them.

But it's just putting it on roughly, and the subsequent tidying work, as well as the work of combing the hair according to the clothes, still have to be transferred to the bedroom.

After such a delay inside and out, it wasn't until around noon that Mrs. Wang found the Rongxi Hall.

Jia Zheng was thinking about tonight...or tomorrow night, after seeing Jiao Shun, how to put on a begging attitude without losing dignity. Seeing Mrs. Wang coming in from outside, he couldn't help frowning, and asked knowingly, "Why are you here?" ?”

"I came here for Baoyu!"

Mrs. Wang's aura was not weak at all, her eyes fell on the forehead lines on Jia Zheng's forehead, a trace of dislike flashed imperceptibly in her eyes, she raised her hand to gently caress the corners of her eyes, and said with the same cold and distant attitude: "Uncle Yong Yi acted like this , clearly underestimated our family, the master should have dealt with it earlier."

Seeing that she really came here for this matter, Jia Zheng flicked his sleeves angrily: "What do you, a woman, know?! This is a big matter, so I should think carefully..."

Before he finished speaking, Mrs. Wang asked aggressively again: "Master also said to consider and think about it at the beginning, but what happened to the official position of the Ministry of Industry?!"

"you!"

A sentence was stabbed in the lungs, and Jia Zheng immediately jumped up and said angrily: "What a cunning woman, didn't you come here specially to mock me?!"

"I dare not."

Mrs. Wang said she didn't dare, but the sarcasm on her face was palpable: "I'm a woman, and I can't control so much. If the master doesn't go, I will go to Jiao's house and ask Brother Shun to come forward..."

"you you!"

Jia Zheng's face became even more angry.

But Mrs. Wang didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and rushed to continue: "Now that things have happened, is the master still suspicious of me and brother Shun-hmph, what kind of young woman he can't get now, how can he not?" Can you look up to an old woman like me?!"

As he said that, he didn't feel resentful.

She hurriedly gathered herself together, and said: "Master, if you want to be suspicious, just be suspicious. As long as it is for Baoyu's future, I don't care about any kind of bad reputation!"

After leaving this sentence, she turned around and left without hesitation.

"you you you!"

Angrily, Jia Zheng rushed a few steps behind, raised his hand and gestured twice, but he still didn't stop Mrs. Wang after all.

Forget it, since she dared to say this in person, it is expected that nothing outrageous will happen.

Besides, she is a woman from a family, so it is better to lower her posture than the head of the family loses her dignity--as for her own dignity, hmph~ when the city was full of storms, how could this woman have any dignity at all?

Thinking in this way, Jia Zheng's mentality gradually calmed down, and he even began to look forward to Mrs. Wang's immediate success, so that he would not have to worry anymore.

But after Madam Wang performed in front of Jia Zheng, she went back home and dressed up carefully—no matter how urgent she was, she had to wait for Jiao Shun to leave the office before going to Jiao's house.

Just so anxious, it was easy to stay until evening.

Mrs. Wang only selected Caixia and Caiyun, and found Jiao's house with the gift box she had prepared long ago.

At that time only Mrs. Xu was there, seeing Mrs. Wang approaching, hurriedly let her into the living room of the main room in fear.

After making a few indirect remarks, Mrs. Wang refused to explain why she came, she only said that she wanted to wait for Jiao Shun to come home from Sanya.

Mrs. Xu had no choice but to gossip with Xiaoxin while sending someone to wait outside the gate, ordering that if her son came back, he should be invited to meet the guests in the main room.

Unexpectedly, after waiting left and right, it was so easy for people outside to neigh, Xu subconsciously went to the door, only to see Laiwang enter the courtyard alone.

She hurriedly asked, "Where's Brother Shun?!"

Lai Wang didn't know that there was a distinguished guest at home, and said with a disgusted face: "They said they were going to visit the new house, maybe they will stay there tonight."

"This child!"

Mrs. Xu couldn't help rolling her eyes when she heard it, why did she go to the new house, she never saw him spend the night there!
But it's not easy to say this in public, so I turned around and explained the matter to Mrs. Wang, and apologized: "It's really a coincidence, Madam will have to wait until tomorrow..."

"No need."

But Mrs. Wang suddenly got up and said decisively: "I will also go to Zijin Street, and it will be the same when I meet him at Xue's house."

"This……"

Mrs. Xu hesitated to speak, but couldn't explain clearly, and finally could only watch Mrs. Wang leave the courtyard.

Then she turned her head and gave her husband a hard look, and urged: "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and send someone to 'Zijin Street' to send a message that he must wait for the second wife to summon him at 'home'!"
