Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 106 The third day of May

The third day of May.

In Sister Feng's courtyard.

Ping'er has never had a chance to meet Lai Shangrong since he returned to Lai's house last time.

Although Wang Xifeng pulled her into a false position a few times, the more she acted like that, the more she felt that the fake phoenix act was worthless.

I just don’t understand why Wang Xifeng enjoys it.

Today is Xue Pan's birthday, and Aunt Xue came to invite Sister Feng two days ago. She also made inquiries and learned that Lai Shangrong would also go.

Started dressing up early in the morning.

Looking at myself in the mirror and feeling sorry for myself, I still felt that it was not enough, so I put a flower into my black hair and applied it carefully on my face for a while, which made it more delicate and charming.

Knowing that Lai Shangrong couldn't let go of the roundness behind him, a silk belt around his waist was tightened three points, and he vividly outlined some twists and turns for her.

It's just that she doesn't usually dress up like this, but Sister Feng can tell the difference at a glance.

"Hey! It's quite new today, you little prodigal, are you trying to crush me?"

Ping'er was secretly shocked. She only cared about Lai Shangrong and forgot about Sister Feng. Fortunately, she was always alert and said with a smile: "Grandma makes fun of me, but I'm not afraid of losing your face!"

Sister Feng did not suspect Lai Shangrong. She just assumed that Jia Lian must have been invited to Xue Pan's birthday. Ping'er wanted to show off in front of Jia Lian.

He smiled and said: "I have my own concerns about the second master. Don't rush up and get up. You must know that this man is a bitch. The more intangible he is, the more precious he is. Let's put him through it first. Over there in Dongfu There is no hope, let’s see how long he can hold on!”

After hearing her words, Ping'er realized that she was thinking wrongly, and immediately felt relieved.

"I think it's better for grandma to use today to give the second master a step forward, otherwise it will be annoying to be so stiff all the time."

Now she also regrets complaining to Sister Feng, it's fine if she didn't get the soap back, and when Jia Lian never came home, Sister Feng dragged her to sleep with her, actually delaying her private meeting with Lai Shangrong.

Sister Feng looked at Ping'er's powdered noodles with spring in her face, and she became more certain that her guess was correct, she couldn't help but eat the vinegar, and said, "You little rascal, don't you think you are thinking of Second Lord Ni?"

While combing his hair, Ping'er complained: "Grandma will wrongly accuse good people. I am also thinking about you. If you don't believe me, I will not bear this name in the future. It will save grandma the worry!"

When Sister Feng saw what she said, she smiled and said, "I just made fun of you, but you got anxious again and kept talking about you and me."

The two people in the room were talking, and they could only listen to the playing and playing outside, which was very lively.

Just when I was confused, I heard Sister Shan from outside reporting.

"Grandma! It's not good! The second master...the eldest master..."

Sister Feng just thought something had happened to Jia Lian and was being punished by Jia She. She slapped the dowry table in front of her and shouted, "What's wrong with the second master? You should tell me!"

"The elder gave Qiutong to the second master as a concubine, and now he is almost in the yard!"

"what!?"

Wang Xifeng suddenly stood up and was about to go out when he suddenly sat down again.

She was really angry at first and was ready to go out and make a scene, but then she calmed down.

The so-called elders' gifts are indispensable. Neither Jia Lian nor Wang Xifeng had any reason to refuse the maid given by Jia She. Moreover, it was the man who had the final say in taking concubines. In addition, the two had been married for many years and had no heirs. She had no reason at all. Go make trouble.

So he smiled and said: "You go out and wait on me first, I will come out soon!"

As soon as Sister Shan went out, Ping'er couldn't wait to say: "Grandma! Didn't you say that Uncle Zhen was going to give the spring willow to the second master? Why did you make a fuss about Qiutong again?" Sister Feng raised her eyebrows, and her pair of red and phoenix eyes were full of power and evil. Said: "Humph! Do you even need to ask? Of course it's the troublemakers like them!"

Then he added: "What did the toad say when you went to see him last time? Why did this happen again?"

She was completely unreasonable. She asked Ping'er to remind Lai Shangrong that Jia Lian was connected with Jia Zhen. She did not expect that Jia She would give Qiu Tong such trouble.

If I had known about this situation, I might as well not have made such a fuss. Although Jia Zhen is the patriarch, she is still of the same generation.

The more Sister Feng thought about it, the angrier she became: "If that toad hadn't been so troublesome, he wouldn't have made such a fuss!"

Hearing that she was angry with Lai Shangrong, Ping'er defended, "How did Uncle Lai know there would be such a thing!"

"Why can't you think of it? That toad is full of bad thoughts, maybe he helped think of this idea."

She was just talking out of anger, but Ping'er took it seriously and said hurriedly: "How is that possible! Uncle Lai..."

Speaking of which, it suddenly became silent.

In a moment of anxiety, she almost said that Lai Shangrong could not lie to her, but she didn't know that Lai Shangrong was afraid that she would reveal his flaws and deliberately hid it from her.

Sister Feng was so angry that she angrily yelled, "You're still talking about Uncle Lai! You should tell me how it's impossible for him!"

Ping'er was annoyed and suddenly had an idea: "Grandma, you also said that Uncle Lai was wishful thinking. Since he had that idea and it was too late to please grandma, how could he help the second master? Last time, he even borrowed the second master's hand to give it to you. Xiangzao, if he hadn’t sincerely wanted to please grandma, how could it be Qiu Tong who came in now?”

Wang Xifeng's remarks about Lai Shangrong's mischief were just words of anger. In fact, she, like Heping'er, felt that it was Lai Shangrong who probably acted on his own initiative and ended up taking advantage of Jia She, causing Jia She to be happy and give Qiutong to Jia Lian.

Lai Shangrong was just doing bad things with good intentions, but even so, he couldn't help but sarcastically said: "The toad wants to eat the swan meat, and wants to blind his heart!"

Then he added: "This time, he messed up the matter. Since he was blind, we have to ask him to come up with something to compensate."

Ping'er didn't dare to say anything and could only echo.

After finishing arranging things while talking, Sister Feng brought Ping'er to the courtyard.

When Qiu Tong got off the sedan, he ignored Jia Lian in the courtyard. He just came to the sedan with a spring breeze on his face and said with a smile: "It's all because of my wife's opinion that she blindly advises the second master to be careful and not to sleep outside in flowers or willows, for fear of offending someone." My parents were worried that the second master might have mistaken his intentions. The eldest master gave his sister to the second master without telling me about such a big thing, which made it difficult for me to complain. Only heaven and earth can express my grievances."

After saying that, he gave Ping'er a wink and scolded the servants: "Why don't you hurry up and pack up the west wing, so as not to delay my sister's rest!"

Qiu Tong also knew that Sister Feng was a human being, and she only thought that this place was a sea of ​​swords and flames, and Sister Feng must give herself a blow, but she did not expect to be so amiable.

He was so flattered that he saluted and said, "Grandma, I have broken my slave!"

Sister Feng held Qiu Tong in her arms and said with a smile: "We agreed that sisters should be worthy of each other! Could it be that my sister refuses to recognize me as my sister?"

"elder sister!"

Qiutong quickly changed his words.

"Today my sister is here. From now on, she and I will live together in the same place, share the same duties, serve the parents-in-law together, and admonish the husband together. When we are happy, we will be happy together, and when we are sad, we will be sad together. Our love is like that of a biological sister, and we are as harmonious as our flesh and blood."

As he said that, he pulled Qiu Tong into his room and said as he walked: "It's okay for the second master to hide this from me. He didn't even prepare the side room in advance. This shows that he is heartless! Why don't you, sister, go to my room to rest first?" , it’s not too late to go and rest after the servants have tidied up the house!”

Sister Feng ignored Jia Lian who was standing aside, and couldn't help but take Qiu Tong and walk towards the main hall.

"boom!"

Then he closed the door, leaving Jia Lian standing alone in the messy courtyard. Then he turned around and went back to the house to change clothes, then went out to Lixiangyuan.
