Love in the Red Chamber

Chapter 36

"Depending on who he is, our family doesn't rely on him. We just want Baoyu to have a clever and intelligent companion, so that he can lead Baoyu to study wholeheartedly. If you want to study, wouldn't it be more convenient to come here to study free?"

Mrs. Wang said leisurely.

When she heard about Jia Lian's disturbance last night in the morning, she couldn't help being angry with Qin Zhong, and even looked at her niece Wang Xifeng with dissatisfaction.

She does have the confidence, her brother Wang Ziteng was promoted to the nine provinces, and now it is extremely expensive to check the frontier by order.

In this imperial city, how many families can surpass the favor of the Wang family?
Even if Qin Zhong is really favored, it is best to get close to him, but there is no need to think too highly of him.

"Nephew can save it." Wang Xifeng replied lightly, but she was thinking about another aspect.

The task that my aunt arranged for her this time was a bit difficult.

She has been with Qin Zhong several times, and she thinks that she is the one who knows Qin Zhong best in this family.

Qin Zhong was the one who could bluntly remind her about loan sharking, and he could also see the pros and cons of the Jia family, so it can be seen that he had his own ideas.

How could such a person be willing to stay at Jia's house as a companion.

The second master also said that Jing Qing has been appreciated by the present, and even Jing Qing, who is now looking for at the Qin's house, if Jing Qing is still willing to stay in the Jia's house, she should suspect something wrong.

Mrs. Wang saw her phoenix eyes turning secretly, and said suspiciously:

"I know he pleases you, so don't turn your elbows outside. We don't wrong him, and all the food, lodging, and food are provided by decent relatives. I heard from the maid that Lian'er almost got into a fight last night. Qin My brother is also twelve or thirteen years old, you, a grandma, have to avoid suspicion."

In front of her aunt, Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng's momentum was much weaker after all, so she replied softly: "He is as old as Baoyu, what can he understand!"

"Baoyu is your cousin, your cousin, what is his relationship?" Mrs. Wang snorted softly, "I never saw you getting close to anyone in the past, so why did you hold hands with him when you met him? Lian'er wants It makes sense to make trouble."

"My nephew just sees that Jingqing is smart and affectionate, and he will be a useful person in the future." Wang Xifeng said from the bottom of his heart.

She has always had no advantage in not getting up early, and when she saw Qin Zhong and Baoyu getting close that day, she had such an idea in her heart.

That day when Qin Zhong pleased her, she followed suit.

Although Qin Zhong is an outsider, he is smart and thoughtful, and has his own insights.What's even more rare is that he has a close relationship with Baoyu.

If she wanted to be a real and complete housekeeper, firstly, she had to do the housework well, secondly, she had to please the elders, and thirdly, she had to win over people to do things for her.

Wang Xifeng originally wanted to rely on the relationship between Qin Zhong and Baoyu to win the favor of the family's ancestor and wife.

Now I feel a little bit more difficult.

Smart people are quick to do things, but too smart people are not easy to order.

But she didn't expect that Jingqing could always say something that caught her heart, and now the more she watched it, the more she liked it.

Mrs. Wang pointed at Wang Xifeng and scolded her. "There are so many servants in the family that are not enough to control? What's the use of those people you win over. If you don't spend such thoughts, it's better to let your stomach grow up earlier, and stare at Lian'er like a thief every day. What do you mean?"

Wang Xifeng has a hard time to say.

How can it be her responsibility for her small belly?

There were signs earlier, but she became red when she didn't pay attention for a while, and she was made to lie down for a month.

It's time.

There is a servant girl outside to pass it on.

"Little Qin Xianggong went to the second grandma's yard."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang gave Wang Xifeng another look. "He is filial, so he will greet you first."

Wang Xifeng was also clever, and said in time: "He came to greet me first, so that he can pay a visit to the old lady."

Mrs. Wang ignored these and planned to meet Qin Zhong in person.

Just ask the maid to lead it here.

Qin Zhong outside heard that he was going to Mrs. Wang's courtyard. He felt a little regretful that he couldn't see Wang Xifeng alone, and was curious about what Mrs. Wang asked him to do.

He followed the servant girl into the yard, and waited outside the main room for the servant girl's notification before entering slowly.

I saw Mrs. Wang, who was nearly forty years old, sitting there alone, and Wang Xifeng was standing beside her in an orderly manner.

"Oh, this atmosphere is a bit wrong." Qin Zhong thought to himself.

He hurriedly changed his smiling face again, and first asked Mrs. Wang for Ankang, and then asked Wang Xifeng for auspiciousness.

After finishing all this, he ran to Mrs. Wang's side intimately, and asked obediently and sweetly: "What orders does Madam have, I will definitely make it perfect for Madam!"

As the saying goes, reach out and don't hit a smiling person.

Mrs. Wang saw this handsome and well-behaved face, and she didn't know how to let go of her anger.

Her tone became softer when she spoke, "I heard from your aunt that Jingqing's family teacher died of illness, and she spent several months reviewing old books by herself at home."

"How does the lady speak of it?"

Qin Zhong frowned quietly, his face full of sorrow and sorrow.

But I thought to myself, what is the purpose of Mrs. Wang saying this?
Mrs. Wang believed his expression and just called him to sit down.Mo Shu caressed his hand, and said kindly: "Good boy, there is always a certain number of old age, sickness and death in life, don't be too sad."

Qin Zhong never let go of any opportunity to increase his longevity and gain favorability.

Not to mention Mrs. Wang, even with the more cautious Mrs. Xing, he has to please a little favor.

He pretended to sniff his nose, his expression sad and determined. "Well! My wife said no to be sad, so Jingqing will not be sad."

Who can refuse a good-looking, well-behaved and obedient child?

Qin Zhong's expression and behavior made Mrs. Wang's original anger dissipate immediately.

Mrs. Wang took a few careful glances, and found that although Qin Zhong's thin body was already tall, he still looked like an immature child.

'I must be thinking too much. '

He couldn't say a word of the words he had prepared in his heart.

She took out the handkerchief carefully, and carefully wiped the crystals from the corners of Qin Zhong's eyes.He said softly: "Jingqing is a good boy, and he is also intelligent. I thought that Jia's family would run Youyi School, and Jingqing would come here to study after the next year, and Baoyu happened to have a companion."

Sure enough, I guessed right.

Qin Zhong murmured in his heart that he had already rejected Baoyu yesterday, so he didn't expect Mrs. Wang to come out in person today.

It's not that he doesn't want to come, it's just that he is reluctant to leave Qin Keqing.

It's so cool to be at home, and I can go to my sister's place to have a taste.

It's okay to directly reject Mrs. Wang, but that will hurt Mrs. Wang's face.

Who would like a person who doesn't give face?

Qin Zhong's eyes flicked wildly, planning in his mind how to gain Mrs. Wang's favor while rejecting Mrs. Wang's request.

He bowed his head and thought for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Mrs. Wang's eldest son had died young, and immediately had a shameless solution in his mind.

He whined twice,
"My wife is so kind. I shouldn't have let you down. I'm so pitiful that I lost my mother when I was born. I don't even know what my mother looks like. Since I saw my wife yesterday, I feel that my mother should be like this."

As Qin Zhong spoke, he actually revealed his true feelings at this point.

It has been a few months since he came to the World of Red Mansions, why hasn't he thought about his relatives in the previous life?
He will always remember that year, when he was in the fifth grade at the boarding school in the town.

His mother was afraid that he would not be nutritious enough to eat pickles every day, so she went to the school every time he went to the fair to send some fried fresh meat.

At that time, the family could not eat meat several times a year!
Home is so far from town!
Mother actually...

Sobbing for a few words, the crying became more and more sad, and said: "If you come here, you can see your wife a few more times, and it can also ease my longing for my mother."

Qin Zhong saw Mrs. Wang was slightly taken aback again.

There was also a wave of self-blame in my heart, Mrs. Wang must have thought of Jia Zhu.

Hey~
He rubbed his eyes lightly, suppressing his longing for his relatives in his previous life, and put away his self-blame for a while.

Qin Zhong said again: "It's a pity that my sister is not married and my father is very old. I can only let go of my wife's kindness. I just hope that when I come to the mansion in the future, my wife will take pity on my longing for my mother and make me happy." I'm here to greet my wife."

Qin Zhong's words exploded like cannonballs in Mrs. Wang's mind, and a figure in full bloom slowly emerged in her mind.

'Pearl! '

Mrs. Wang trembled slightly, and tears came out of her eyes unconsciously.

Jia Zhu is her most proud son. He became a scholar at the age of 14, married the daughter of Guozijian Jijiu before the age of 20, and had Lang Geer the following year.

That kind of knowledgeable, ambitious.

If Jia Zhu was still there, she would be willing to die a hundred Jia Baoyu!Where is it necessary to hang one's heart on Baoyu who is not a talent like now?

The pain of losing a child is a painful experience, what a pain!
Wang Xifeng also sat down and came over, only to appease.

Seeing this, Qin Zhong was anxious to comfort him.

Mrs. Wang took his hand and shook her head in a low voice, "I don't blame you! He is such a good boy who values ​​love and righteousness... Come, get closer, let me take a good look!"

[Madam Wang's favorability +5, Yangshou increased by 5 days]
