Xian Sun of the Ning Mansion of the Red Chamber

Chapter 147 Jia Ying: How does the second sister-in-law plan to thank me?

"Second sister-in-law, what did you want to say just now?"

After a long silence, Jia Ying finally asked.

After Jia Lian left, Sister Feng also noticed something was wrong. It was already the time of day, and the maids and women in the mansion were busy finishing their day's work. Even the maids around her also went out to help, Ping'er Helping her watch in the west wing room, now there are only the two of them left in the main room, and there is not even a maid serving beside them. Isn't it absurd that the younger brother-in-law and sister-in-law are in the same room?

However, Sister Feng is not an ordinary woman, she is outgoing, and she can save face. Besides, no one in her yard is afraid of her power, and no one dares to spread gossip about her. She had dismissed the two-mouthed one long ago, so she didn't act like the youngest daughter's family.

Hearing Jia Ying's question, he followed up the conversation and said: "The previous one, I disgraced Lai Da in front of many servants. You also know that he is a housekeeper. Even a master like your Lian's second brother should respect him when he sees him, and call out "Master Lai" respectfully. All the deacons, servants, women and maids in the mansion should not look at him. The expression on my face, that is, my daughter-in-law of the housekeeper, can talk to him a few words. But you also know that although I am in charge of the house, I am a woman and a junior after all. Is there anyone behind me who can rely on him? I got embarrassed by me, but he didn't say anything clearly, and he might not know how to arrange me behind his back. The guy in his family has seen me these days, but his eyes are not eyes, his nose is not his nose, and he walks around far and wide. I walked, as if it would be unlucky to be next to me.

Especially the old lady in his family is also a character. I expected them to go to the old lady to say something about me in the next few days. I am waiting for them these two days.It just so happened that you caught up with me today and took care of the matter for me, which saved me a lot of trouble.What happened a few days ago, after they came back, I let go, no one is allowed to talk nonsense, especially in front of the master, whoever dares to talk nonsense will immediately send it to Yazi to sell.I also know that this matter cannot be suppressed, but it can't be put on the table. Even if the ladies hear some rumors, as long as the truth is not serious, they won't pay much attention to it. I'm saving face.

But if you really want her to make a fuss with the old lady, then it's okay, isn't it saying that I'm not good at handling things?If it really gets to that point, my face as the housekeeper's daughter-in-law will really be trampled on the ground.Should I not thank you. "

When Jia Ying heard this, she thought to herself, "If you don't hate me for finding trouble for you, I'll be considered a high incense burner. How dare I get your thanks."

However, since Sister Feng didn't say anything about blaming him, he naturally couldn't do it wrong. It was not easy to earn Sister Feng's favor.

Thinking in her heart, she answered the words smoothly: "How does the second sister-in-law plan to thank me?"

After saying this, Jia Ying felt that something was wrong, but it was hard to get over the water, so she forced herself to be calm, picked up the tea bowl on the table at the side, sipped it lightly, and waited for Sister Feng to answer.

Sister Feng stared at Jia Ying meaningfully for a long time, until Jia Ying's face turned red, and then she asked with a smile, "How do you want me to thank you? As long as you tell me, I will answer."

How do these words feel, so charming?
Jia Ying looked at Sister Feng in surprise, when did Feng Lazi become so talkative?
At the same time, Sister Feng's gaze also forgot to come over, and the four eyes met for a long time. At first, there was a trace of doubt in each other's eyes, but gradually, it seemed that the taste changed a little.

Jia Ying: Huh?What does Sister Feng mean by looking at me like that?In other words, looking closely at this moment, this colorful and brocade spirit phoenix bird really has a special charm, it does not have the aloofness in front of the servants, and the fire around it is not allowed to get close to it, but it seems to have faded from the intimidating fire. , only the colorful rays of light are left, which makes people unable to bear it.
Sister Feng: Brother Ying, looking at me like this, doesn't feel ashamed and panics.I'm afraid that some filth has arisen in my heart, but let's see what conditions you can put forward. If so, let you remember how great I am.Well, not to mention, this guy's appearance is no worse than Lian Er's. No wonder the younger sister of the Lin family, the second sister of the Xu family, and the girl of the Xue family are all attached to him. I don't know how to be ashamed.

No matter how long it took, the two seemed to be fighting each other, neither of them wanted to look away first and admit defeat, and just looked at each other like that.

"Or." In the end, it was Jia Ying who spoke first. If a good man doesn't fight with a woman, he should show his gentlemanly demeanor. He only spoke from his side, but he heard Li Wan's voice from outside.

"Where's your second grandma?"

"In the house, Second Master Ying is here, talking to our grandma, please come to Grandma's room." It was Ping'er's crisp voice that sounded.

Hearing the voice, the two of Sister Feng hurriedly straightened their bodies, returning to their former dignity and generosity, leaving two red marks on their faces, which could not be dispelled for a while.Jia Ying looked nonchalantly, looked outside the door, then looked at Sister Feng, isn't it just someone here, as for doing this the same as being a thief?It's as if I've got something on you.

Seeing Jia Ying's gaze, Sister Feng gave him a pretty gouged look, with a trace of shame and anger, as if she blamed him for making herself a fool of herself at this time.

However, Jia Ying's heart trembled when she saw Sister Feng's rare shyness, she hurriedly guarded her mind and put away all distracting thoughts in her heart, so as not to make a fool of herself in front of Sister Feng and Li Wan.

Li Wan lifted the curtain and walked in, and saw that there were only two people in the room. They were clearly talking, but they could not hear the slightest sound. Feeling like this, I wondered in my heart: "Why is Feng girl acting like a lady of everyone today?"

"Brother Ying is also here." Li Wan looked at Jia Ying and laughed in harmony.

"I came to talk to Second Brother Lian, but I haven't seen my sister-in-law for a few days." Jia Ying put down the teacup in her hand and stood up.

"I said that today the birds outside the house are always chirping. Isn't that just in response to the saying 'the guest is coming'? First Brother Ying Er came to the door, no, even you guarding Lan Geer Those who refused to leave half a step also came."

Sister Feng got up to greet her and said, "That's right, we are all daughters-in-law, and there is a wall and a door between the courtyard and the courtyard. On weekdays, I don't see you often come to my place to sit and sit. I am busy." As for the affairs in the mansion, I also don’t go to your place once.”

When Li Wan sat down, Sister Feng asked again, "Where's Brother Lan?"

Li Wan replied: "Mr. Zi is teaching him now, and it's not over yet, so I came here while I was free."

"Brother Lan is enrolled? But the school should be over now?" Sister Feng asked doubtfully.

Li Wan smiled slightly when he heard the words, glanced at Jia Ying, and said to Sister Feng: "I haven't gone to school yet, I just thought about it. He is still young, so I have to wait another year or two before I can rest assured that he can go to school." Li. It was the teacher Ying Er brothers hired for him, and he was also the master of Xueli."

When Sister Feng heard the words, she looked at Jia Ying, smiled, and said in surprise, "Brother Ying and Brother Lan are very close." Although she spoke calmly, there was a hint of doubt and strangeness on her expression. .

There was a lot of gossip in front of the widow's house, Jia Ying saw Sister Feng's expression, and she knew what was going on in her heart, but he and Li Wan really didn't have much intersection, so he hired a master for Jia Lan, and he also promised Jia Lan's has nothing to do with Li Wan.

After a little thought in my heart, I still opened my mouth to explain: "A few days ago, in the courtyard of the third sister, I met Lan'er and Jun'er. They are about the same age. There is no shortage of progressives in our house, just like them. They want to worship me as a teacher, but I have not yet reached the crown, neither internal cultivation nor external virtue have reached the state of being a master. So I agree to help each of them hire a master, which can be regarded as paying attention to the younger generation."

The confusion on Sister Feng's face eased a little, and she teased: "I think you made excuses to hide yourself, how many people in this world can win the prize? Can you save yourself?" How many people can be responsible for countering rebellion? You are used to being lazy, and you don’t even want to pay more attention to your own nephew. You brothers are really of the same temperament.”

Jia Ying smiled slightly and did not argue.

But Li Wan who was at the side said: "It's time for our mother and son to thank Brother Ying Er, but you are not in the house on weekdays, so it is difficult for me to meet you. Just now I vaguely heard the maid outside saying that you came here. That's why I thought about coming over to have a look. If you have time, please come to my side for a sit-down, and it happens that Lan'er's husband is also there, so I just happen to be the host for a while."

The status of Li Wan's mother and son in Rongfu seems to be honorable, but in fact there are embarrassments unknown to outsiders.Without the support of a man in the family, even though he is from the direct lineage, he still deserves three points in every respect.Not to mention that it cannot be compared with Sister Feng, the housekeeper's daughter-in-law. Among the eight houses in Jia's house in central Beijing, Li Wan is not the only one in the widow's home. Difficult, Jia Yun had to find a job to make a living when she was young, but Jia Jun wanted to practice martial arts but couldn't afford the money.

Although Li Wan is better than the two of them, he has no income other than the daily allowance, and her natal father is a poor official, so he can't make up for it. It's just that the monthly money for her and her son is in the hands of the Hou. In Mengong Mansion, there is only enough to maintain a decent life.Even if the old lady has any rewards on weekdays, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang also give some rewards from time to time, but even if there are any rewards, no matter Jia Mu or Mrs. Wang, they always put Baoyu first and fall to the bottom. How many can there be in Jialan's place?Otherwise, why is it that the life in the Red Mansion described by Mr. Cao is the son, Baoyu, not Jialan, who is the most enjoyable and exciting life?It's not that Baoyu can have whatever she wants, and no one can stop her from doing what she wants, while Jialan can only stand aside.

Therefore, even if there were some rewards, Li Wan was reluctant to use them, and only wanted to keep them for Jia Lan for the future.So it's no wonder that when all the girls joined the poetry club, Sister Feng accused Li Wan of being "short of hair". Each family has its own difficulties.

Sister Feng on the side laughed when she heard the words, looked at Li Wan and joked: "I only thought you came looking for me, but I didn't expect that the drunkard's intention was not to drink, and you came here for Brother Ying. People are heartbroken after hearing this, so it can be seen that my sister-in-law and sisters are not as pleasing, considerate and understanding as my brother-in-law."

Hearing this, Li Wan's face turned red, and he looked at Sister Feng and said in embarrassment: "Girl Feng, if you continue to talk nonsense with this mouth, I will tear it up for you to see. It's strange that the old lady said that you are a poor settler, such a joke." Only you can tell."

Seeing Li Wan's embarrassing look, Sister Feng giggled, and then said: "My good sister, you forgive me this time, but it's just that it's unfortunate that you came here today. Their brothers made an appointment to have a drink together in the evening. Today's host is afraid." You can't do it."

Jia Ying didn't dare to intervene in the confrontation between the two women, until the two of them stopped chattering, Jia Ying said: "Sister-in-law and sister-in-law don't have to treat each other like this, they are all a family, and Lan'er is my junior, one or two Care should also be done."

But at this moment Lian Er came back and ordered someone to prepare a small banquet. Seeing that the purpose of this trip had failed, Li Wan got up to bid farewell to Sister Feng and the others and left.

Er, the small feast of food and drink is ready, Jia Lian invites Jia Ying to sit down with her, and Sister Feng goes to the West Wing to take a look.

Three cups of wine.

"Why is Feng Ziying looking for you so late?" Jia Ying asked, putting down the wine glass in her hand.

"What else can you do? The circle in Beijing is so big. Although Xu's family and our Xungui belong to two families, but Xu's second child has a close relationship with everyone. He knows that you are the supervisor of this case, so he came here. The inquirer just heard that you moved out of Dongfu, and didn't know where you lived, so he came to look for me. It was useless to look for you, and I didn't tell him that you were here." Jia Lian replied.

Just as they were chatting, they saw Sister Feng, who had left not long ago, come back again.

Lian Er looked at Sister Feng and asked, "Is there still something to be busy? Why don't you sit down for a while, have a drink, and assign them to do the outside things."

Sister Feng didn't refuse when she heard the words, but turned around to exchange a pot of hot wine for the two of them, then sat aside, looked at Jia Lian and said, "Now, you know that you care about me. I don’t know how many questions to ask.”

Lian Er wanted to show off his gentlemanly demeanor in front of Jia Ying, but he didn't want to be overthrown by Sister Feng, so he couldn't help smiling and poured a glass of wine for Sister Feng.

But Sister Feng looked at Jia Ying who was at the side and asked: "Brother Ying, you haven't finished what you said just now. After today, I won't admit what I said."

"What?" Lian Er asked curiously from the side.

Sister Feng didn't answer, but looked at Jia Ying with a smile.

"Hey, forget it if you don't want it." Jia Ying looked at Sister Feng and said.

Sister Feng spat lightly and said: "You ask around in the mansion. What I said never counts. You are a man, how can you become like a girl? Don't let me underestimate you. .”

Lian Er watched the two of them playing riddles, and felt like: I am a real card, just like a passerby.

Probably because I ate a few more glasses and thought too much.
