King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 258 Meeting Wang Xifeng for the First Time

Under the attention of everyone, Zhu Jinghong untied the sachet from his waist, apparently to use this as a reward.

Strictly speaking, it is not appropriate to send this between a man and a woman, but no one at the scene objected.

Only Jia Baoyu, who was standing outside the door, felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly. He wanted to speak out to stop him, but he didn't have the courage.

In the hall, Daiyu was deeply surprised by Zhu Jinghong's sudden reward.

When she was thinking about how to politely decline, the guard had already handed the sachet to her.

"Be careful, I hope the girl doesn't dislike her!"

After Zhu Jinghong said this, if Daiyu refused again, it would be really disgusting.

Originally, Jia She felt that it was inappropriate for Daiyu to accept this item, but now he only hoped that his niece would accept it quickly.

"Thank you Thirteenth Lord for the reward!" After receiving the purse, Daiyu kowtowed again.

Everyone in Jia's family breathed a sigh of relief, but Baoyu's heart was pierced by a knife, and she burst into tears.

Sister Lin, you can't have that thing... Jia Baoyu cried out in her heart.

Just when Zhu Jinghong was about to say a few more words, Zheng Quanyang, a thousand households of the Dragon Guard, reappeared and whispered something beside Zhu Jinghong.

"Master Thirteen, the Holy Spirit has a call!"

Just these seven words made Zhu Jinghong "wake up" immediately, and he no longer wanted to keep his sister.

According to his deduction, the old man would send someone to pass on the news of the Jia family's situation.

"Everyone, the Ningshou Palace banquet is coming soon, the Holy Majesty ordered me to go back immediately, and I will take my leave!" Zhu Jinghong stood up.

"I'm waiting to send the thirteenth master off!"

Everyone in the Jia family bowed down again, and Zhu Jinghong didn't delay any longer, and walked out surrounded by guards.

The Jia She brothers plus Jia Zhen and Jia Lian immediately followed Zhu Jinghong when he left the house. They had to send Zhu Jinghong out of Ningrong Street.

After leaving the hall, the members of the Jia family who were waiting outside bowed their heads again to express their respect to Zhu Jinghong.

Ding Zhu Jinghong, the male of Jia's family, was not interested. His eyes wandered around Jia's mother, and he judged from the appearance of Wang Xing's two wives that they were both women who were nearly forty years old.

On the contrary, there was a woman behind him, who looked like a concubine or fairy, which attracted Zhu Jinghong to take a second look.

Presumably this is Wang Xifeng, although she is not as good-looking as Chai and Dai Keqing, but her mature charm really gives her a lot of points.

It's really interesting...

When Zhu Jinghong was sizing up, Wang Xifeng just raised his head and took a sneak peek, and then met Zhu Jinghong's fiery gaze.

She is no longer a girl in a boudoir, so naturally she knows the meaning of this look, so Wang Xifeng was startled, and finally bowed her head like an electric shock.

The whole process sounds lengthy, but in fact it only took two or three seconds, and everyone around didn't notice anything unusual.

"Damn...she can wake up my brother, this girl is really amazing!" Zhu Jinghong muttered in his heart.

"Master Thirteen?" Jia Lian called out.

"The courtyard of your house looks unique!" Zhu Jinghong responded casually.

It turned out that the Thirteenth Master was looking at the courtyard, and I thought he was staring at Feng girl, which is really a villain's heart... Jia Lian felt ashamed.

When Jia Lian blamed himself, Zhu Jinghong couldn't help but look at Wang Xifeng again, which made his brother much more excited.

He is trying to control himself, not to turn into a beast, because as long as he wants, someone will help him send people.

"Looks like tonight, I'm going to have another meeting with Yinglian!" Zhu Jinghong secretly felt helpless.

Putting aside his lust, Zhu Jinghong looked around and said heartily: "Your yard is well arranged, and when I open the mansion... I have to learn from it!"

Then I heard Jia Lian say: "The Thirteenth Lord is joking. Your palace is built by skilled craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry. It must be a masterpiece of ingenuity. It doesn't need to be learned by ministers and other poor families!"

Seeing that he lost his composure just after covering it up, Zhu Jinghong laughed and patted Jia Lian on the shoulder at the same time.

Seeing his son's comprehensive response, Jia She who was at the side was very satisfied, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Lian Er, you are right...the hat on your head should be changed too!" Zhu Jinghong said meaningfully.

This remark made Jia Lian ecstatic, guessing that Zhu Jinghong was implying that he would be an official.

"minister……"

"Okay, I have to go back, let's talk about it later!"

Without giving Jia Lian a chance to say more, Zhu Jinghong walked straight out, Jia Amnesty and others still followed to see him off.

After Zhu Jinghong left Jia's residence, the sergeants guarding inside and outside the Jia's house also withdrew one after another, allowing the Jia's family to lose their murderous spirit and restore tranquility.

After so much fuss today, the entire Jia family was extremely tired, so Mother Jia ordered everyone to disperse and return to their respective positions to take care of affairs.

"Feng girl, come back with me and talk!"

"Ah? Good... old ancestor!"

Seeing Wang Xifeng so absent-minded, Jia's mother was a little surprised and said: "You monkey...what's the matter today? Could it be that you were frightened by the thief?"

"Old ancestor, those thieves are too scary, you have to protect me!"

After saying this, Wang Xifeng got into Jia Mu's arms, looking like a naughty boy, which made Jia Mu laugh heartily.

"Okay... I'll protect you!"

On one side, Wang Xifeng was covering up his gaffe, while on the other side, Jia Baoyu approached Daiyu.

Seeing that Daiyu was holding the sachet, Jia Baoyu felt like a knife was twisting in his heart, and Jia Baoyu hurriedly stepped forward to stop her.

"Sister Lin, you can't take this thing!"

"Why not?" Daiyu asked, tilting her head.

Before Jia Baoyu could reply, Tanchun interjected all the way: "Sister Lin, show me!"

Daiyu handed the sachet to Tanchun, who took it and looked it over carefully, amazed at the intricate patterns on it.

"Sister Lin...you can't have sex with men and women, you can't take things from Lord Thirteen!" Jia Baoyu was anxious.

It's hard for him to say such a truth, but Daiyu replied: "The elder dare not resign, the thirteenth master has a noble status, how dare I refuse his things!"

"Now he's gone, just throw him away!" After saying this, Jia Baoyu was about to snatch the sachet.

"Second brother, what are you doing?" Tanchun who was holding the sachet took a few steps back.

"Third sister, you can't take this dirty thing!"

When Jia Baoyu finished speaking, he heard a cold voice behind him: "Baoyu, what nonsense are you talking about?"

The voice came from Jia Zheng, they had just sent Zhu Jinghong away, and were planning to visit their ancestors in the inner house, when they heard Jia Baoyu's nonsense as soon as they entered the Yimen Gate.

At this moment, the faces of Jia She, his father and son, and Jia Zhen were full of anger.

If what Jia Baoyu said just now got out, the Jia family would be in disaster again in an instant.

Feeling the "murderous aura" coming from behind, Jia Baoyu turned around carefully, seeing the ugly expressions of his father and the others, he immediately lowered his head and languished.

"Uncle, the second elder brother is kidding me!" Daiyu hurriedly smoothed things over.

"Joke? What joke? Sister Lin, don't cover it for him!" Jia Lian's tone was full of anger.

"Beast, don't you think it's not enough to cause trouble?"

Jia Zheng stepped forward and cursed, then waved his hand and slapped the other half of Jia Baoyu's face.

Zhu Jinghong was sent away just now, and Jia Zhen and the others were discussing how to further clean up the family tradition, but they heard Jia Baoyu's forbidden words.

At this moment, if Jia Zheng didn't slap this slap, he couldn't explain it in front of his brothers and nephews, which would make the tribe even more dissatisfied with Baoyu.

So Jia Zheng's slap was all for Jia She and the other three to see, and the purpose was to help Jia Baoyu pass the test, but unfortunately the latter would not understand the deep meaning inside.

Being slapped continuously today, Jia Baoyu, who was already extremely wronged, cried out, which made Jia Zheng even angrier.

"Come here, take this useless thing... away!" Jia Zheng couldn't help but angrily scolded.

A young servant came to listen to the order and took Jia Baoyu outside.

At this time, Jia Lian took two steps forward and said earnestly, "Sister Lin, you have to keep the things that the Thirteenth Lord rewarded you!"

"Second brother Lian, I know!" Daiyu looked in the direction where Jia Baoyu disappeared, with a look of worry in her eyes.
