Red Mansion Beijingwang

On the north side of the second gate of Rongguo Mansion, the Chuihua Gate, is the courtyard where Sister Feng lives.

Sister Feng sat on a soft couch by the west window, flipping through a blue account book in her slender hands, calculating the recent expenses in the Duke's Mansion.

Suddenly, Sister Feng seemed to remember something. She raised her narrow and long phoenix eyes and looked at Ping'er who was sitting opposite her. She opened her red lips and said softly, "Ping'er, have the tonic herbs from Aunt Liu been delivered?"

Ping Er paused when she heard this, and looked at Feng Jieer with a complicated expression. She closed her eyelashes and replied softly, "They have all been delivered. Don't worry, Madam."

In fact, Ping'er also figured out the trick of Fengjie sending tonic herbs to Aunt Liu. After all, Fengjie had been pregnant before, but she basically couldn't keep the pregnancy. One time, it was because she couldn't take the tonic. Therefore, this trick couldn't be hidden from her.

Although she knew it, Ping'er couldn't do anything about it because of her position.

Feng Jieer knew what Ping'er was thinking at a glance. After thinking for a while, she said softly, "Ping'er, I know you have always been kind, but you must know that if you treat her kindly, she will become powerful in the future and bully us, master and servant."

In the mansion, there are endless dirty tricks. If you are not ruthless, how can you survive?

Ping'er's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she said "hmm" softly, but did not refute. After all, what Fengjie said was not groundless. It is stupid to entrust your own destiny to the kindness of others.

Speaking of which, my own grandmother is also pitiful. The couple are like strangers and have no children. Once concubine Liu really gives birth to a baby, it is not impossible that he will favor the concubine over his wife.

Seeing this, Feng Jieer didn't say much. She knew that Ping'er was kind-hearted, but she was a sensible person and would never betray her.

As for my own cruelty, I should blame Aunt Liu for not knowing the limits. It would have been fine if she just stayed outside and was my mistress, but she had to make her pregnant. Human greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant.

At this moment, the door was kicked open with a "bang", which frightened Feng Jieer and Ping'er. They looked up and saw Jia Lian walking in with an angry face.

"Second Master, what's going on?"

When Ping'er saw Jia Lian's aggressive attitude, she had a bad feeling and hurriedly stood up to greet him. A look of uneasiness appeared on her pretty face.

Could something have happened?
With a "slap", Jia Lian raised his hand and slapped Ping'er, glaring at her and saying, "You two are a bunch of idiots, trying to harm Sisi and the child in various ways. Go and rebel."

Given the master-servant relationship between Feng Jieer and Ping'er, it is absolutely impossible to say that Ping'er did not know the details, not to mention that the medicinal materials were delivered by Ping'er. Therefore, Jia Lian was also furious when he looked at Ping'er.

The prince didn't let him make a big deal out of it, but he also said that he wanted to warn Feng Jieer, so this was a good opportunity for him to vent his anger.

Ping'er was slapped and fell onto the couch. She was completely dazed and felt a burning pain on her face. There was a faint trace of blood at the corner of her pink lips.

Ping'er didn't care about anything else at this moment. She knew that something had really happened. The Second Master knew the details and came to call her to task.

Sister Feng obviously understood, her narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and she cursed: "Second Master, what do you mean? I gave all the best things in the house to Sister, and I worshipped Sister like an ancestor. How dare you harm them?"

The incident has been reported, but there is no evidence at all. As long as Feng Jieer insists on denying it, how can she be convicted?

Seeing that Sister Feng was still trying to argue, Jia Lian became even more furious and said in a cold voice, "Don't pretend in front of me. You sent so many herbs to Sisi, hoping that Sisi would not be able to take them and get hurt. I thought you had become better, but who would have thought that you were hiding something evil in your heart."

Feng Jieer's face turned pale when she heard this, with a hint of disbelief between her eyebrows and eyes. She said in surprise: "It turned out to be like this, I didn't know!"

"Pretend, keep pretending. I want to see how long you can keep pretending."

Jia Lian looked at Sister Feng's quibbling appearance and snorted with disdain.

If it were someone else, Jia Lian might believe it, but this was Feng Jieer. Not to mention her intolerant temperament, how could Jia Lian believe her in the face of such a sudden change in character?
Why, do you really think he is stupid?

When Sister Feng heard this, her eyes were filled with tears, and she cried, "Pregnant women need nourishment, and I sent some nourishment by mistake. If you can't tolerate me, just tell me directly, why are you using this to frame me?"

Seeing Sister Feng crying, Jia Lian shed tears as if she had suffered a great injustice. He sneered and said, "Since you married into the mansion, you drove away all the maids around me. I agreed to this. Later, whenever I said a few more words to that maid, you got jealous and scolded me. How could I not tolerate you? Who can't tolerate who?"

To be honest, as a direct descendant of the Duke's Mansion, he was controlled like this by a woman. Not to mention his own frustration, in the eyes of outsiders, it was a joke.

Now he just has a concubine, but he still does such a cruel thing. When it comes to tolerance, Sister Feng is more narrow-minded than anyone else.

Seeing Jia Lian's hysteria, Sister Feng was stunned.

She didn't expect that her efforts to maintain the family were so unbearable in the eyes of her husband, who even glared at her and scolded her, with disgust in his eyes evident.

At this moment, Feng Jieer was filled with a huge sense of grievance. Her eyes were filled with mist. Then her eyebrows slightly raised. Her slightly red eyes met Jia Lian's greedy gaze and she said angrily, "You don't know what kind of moral character you have. You let all the dirty and smelly people stay in the house. I can't tolerate people, but it's for your own good."

Although Jia Lian is a direct descendant of the Duke's Mansion, he is not taken seriously by the eldest master, nor by the old lady. This embarrassing situation is mostly caused by her trying to please Lady Jia by being nice.

However, my good intentions did not please me at all, which made me feel disheartened.

Jia Lian didn't take it seriously and looked at Feng Jie'er's roar with a sneer on his face. She said it was for his own good, but it was just her jealousy that was causing trouble. Among the daughters-in-law of a wealthy family, there was no other daughter-in-law as domineering as her.

Jia Lian did not want to talk to Feng Jieer at this time, and warned her sternly: "I'm telling you, don't make trouble here. The prince has also spoken. If you do it again, the prince will not care even if he divorces you. You'd better take care of yourself."

After saying this, Jia Lian ignored Feng Jieer and turned away, planning to go to Aunt Liu to deal with the medicinal herbs. He also asked Aunt Liu to be on guard against Feng Jieer and not let her get into trouble again.

Sister Feng's face turned pale as she looked at Jia Lian's departing back, her phoenix eyes widening under her drooping brows.

If Jia Lian had said in the past that he wanted to divorce her, Feng Jieer, with the support of the Wang family and Lady Jia, could have mediate. But now that it was the prince who had said this, Lady Jia and the Wang family had no choice but to turn a blind eye.

In short, she really had to be divorced.

Thinking of this, Sister Feng was overwhelmed with grief. Her narrow eyes were filled with tears and she threw herself on the table and started crying.

Ping Er saw Sister Feng's delicate body trembling, and her crying voice was endless. She was worried and didn't care about the pain on her face. She stepped forward and said, "Grandma, didn't the prince say that there will be a next time? We won't worry too much."

She had heard what was said before and had advised her grandmother not to cause any trouble. But now, things have come to light and even the prince is angry.

Fortunately, the prince still gave Feng Jieer a chance. As long as her grandmother behaves herself in the future, it won’t be a problem.

"Bullshit, they are a bunch of snakes and rats, you think he is a good person." Feng Jieer raised her delicate head, her bright face full of tears, and she shouted and cursed.

Ping'er's face changed when she heard this, and she said hurriedly, "Grandma, please be careful with your words."

The "he" who was not a good guy was obviously referring to the prince. If this got out, her grandmother would have a harder time, so Ping'er had no choice but to be cautious.

Feng Jieer didn't care. She wiped away her tears, bit her red lips with her pearly teeth, and her charming jade cheeks were filled with resentment. She gritted her teeth and said, "What are you afraid of? He has the guts to destroy the relationship between us. You are still afraid of being scolded. At worst, he will be wiped out. Anyway, I can't live anymore."

Since Jia Lian mentioned Shui Rong before, it was obvious that Shui Rong knew about this matter. Jia Lian would definitely not expose the fact that he used medicinal herbs to make Aunt Liu have a miscarriage. In all likelihood, it was Shui Rong who exposed the fact.

The root cause is that water-soluble meddling is the root cause.

Ping'er: "."

Since this involves the prince, how should Ping'er comment?

In fact, in Ping'er's view, not to mention that it was the prince who stopped Jia Lian from killing grandma, even regarding the usury, the prince was so tolerant and generous that he did not care about it and even helped grandma.

In this matter, it was her grandmother who had gotten herself into trouble. When she blamed the prince, Chunchun was just taking her anger out on him. Feng Jieer sobbed for a while before she came to her senses. She looked at Ping'er who was silently comforting her, and her heart felt slightly warmed.

Only Ping'er remains the same as always.

Seeing the redness and swelling on the right side of Ping'er's face, Sister Feng felt pity for her. She stretched her white hands into the air, but dared not touch her. She complained, "That bastard was so cruel to you. I think he is really crazy."

Originally, Ping'er had always been coveted by Jia Lian, but unexpectedly, this time he actually slapped Ping'er until her face was swollen. It can be seen that the bastard only has eyes for that little slut.

Ping'er smiled when she heard that, but it hurt her wound. She couldn't help but groan. She forced a smile on her broken face and said softly, "Grandma, it's okay. I'll apply a boiled egg to it later. It will be healed in a day or two."

As a maid, her job is to protect her master from disaster. It doesn't matter if she is beaten. The key is that grandma cannot be beaten.

Feng Jieer could see Ping Er's sincerity, so she sighed and said leisurely, "What a silly girl."

Ping'er didn't care about it. She grew up with Fengjie since she was a child, and they even went to Beijing together. This relationship between them clearly went beyond the relationship between master and servant.

Pursing her pink lips, Ping'er advised softly, "Madam, things have come to this point. The prince has also said that you are still the Second Madam of Lian. You should stop making trouble."

It can happen once or twice, but not again or again. If my grandma continues to do this, I will be asking for trouble.

When Sister Feng heard this, her narrow eyes flickered and she said in a clear voice, "I know what's going on. You don't have to worry about it."

Ping'er sighed slightly when she saw this. When she saw Fengjie's expression, she knew that she still couldn't bear it and was afraid that she was up to something again.

As expected, Sister Feng turned and said, "Ping'er, you are not young anymore. It would be a waste of time if you stay with me. I will find a good family for you in the future."

Jia Lian has already been bewitched. Rather than rotting with her in the Duke's Mansion, it would be better to find a good family for her as soon as possible, which would also preserve the relationship between master and servant.

When Ping'er heard this, her pretty face froze, her willow-shaped eyebrows were filled with mist, and she choked up and said, "Grandma, I don't want to leave you."

Finding a family for her would be tantamount to driving her away. If she leaves, there will be no one around her grandmother to advise her, and if anything happens, she will be out of reach.

Hearing this, Feng Jieer felt a warm feeling in her heart, and at the same time, she became more determined in her own thoughts.

Prince Beijing's Palace, Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

In the side room, Daiyu lay on the soft couch, her eyelashes trembling slightly, her beautiful eyes slowly opened, her half-asleep look was hazy, she could not help but slowly raised her hand and rubbed her eyes.

At this moment, the girl's soft long hair was casually scattered, and she was wantonly lazy. When she was about to call Zijuan, she was met with a pair of warm eyes, which made the girl startled for a moment. She blinked her bright eyes, revealing a bit of naivety.

The person in front of me is my brother, right? Why is he here?
"Pin'er, are you awake?" Shui Rong chuckled and greeted her in a gentle voice.

Daiyu recovered, her fair face slightly warmed, her crystal earlobes shone with a little rose red, and she hurriedly stood up from the couch, with a hint of anger in her voice, she said, "Brother, why are you here?"

I saw my brother as soon as I woke up. He saw my sleeping posture. I wonder what Zijuan and the others were doing? My brother came and didn’t even wake her up. It was so embarrassing.

Shui Rong smiled, knowing that this was just the shyness of a young girl, and didn't care, and said, "Come and see you."

As he spoke, Shui Rong handed over a cup of tea and said softly, "Pin'er, drink some tea first to moisten your body and wake up. Don't be confused again."

The girl's cute and naive look when she just woke up was refreshing, especially her confused blinking. She was full of girlish playfulness and was really adorable.

Hearing this, the girl's heart was shy, her cheeks were slightly red, and she reached out to take the teacup. Facing the boy's gaze, Daiyu's eyelashes seemed to be frowning, hiding a shadow of shyness, and asked, "When did my brother come?"

Shui Rong replied, "It's been a while. Seeing that Pin'er was sleeping soundly, I couldn't bear to disturb her."

Daiyu's heart was sweetened when she heard this. Even the tea she drank felt like it was mixed with honey, so sweet that it made her feel immersed in it. She didn't ask for much, just the boy's favor.

Obviously, the boy's preference was fully demonstrated.

Even so, Daiyu pouted her lips slightly and snorted, "Brother is a polite person, but he doesn't know the difference between men and women. How can he enter a girl's boudoir without permission?"

The boy not only broke into the girl's bedroom without permission, but also watched her quietly while she was sleeping. It's embarrassing to think about it.

Shui Rong didn't care about it. He stood up and sat on the couch. He reached out and held the girl's hand. He smiled and said, "Pin'er, we still need to follow these conventional etiquettes. Isn't that unorthodox?"

Daiyu's eyebrows trembled slightly, and a layer of bright red appeared on her fair face. She said shyly, "You only know how to bully me."

What? He held her hand as soon as they met. After confessing his feelings, the brother became even more shameless.

Shui Rong chuckled, stretched out his hand and gently hugged Daiyu's waist, letting the shy girl sit on his lap, and whispered: "Pin'er, do you still remember your father-in-law's concubine Liu?"

Daiyu's cheeks flushed, and she didn't know who Shui Rong was referring to for a moment. When she thought of Aunt Liu, she suddenly felt shy and raised her beautiful eyes to glare at the young man, saying angrily, "What father-in-law? Don't be so talkative."

As for father-in-law, she didn't get along well with her brother. She was sitting on the boy's lap, so everything she said was pale and powerless.

Moreover, Daiyu felt quite sweet in her heart when the young man called him father-in-law.

Pursing her pink lips, Daiyu asked softly, "Brother, what happened to Aunt Liu?"

Daiyu had not heard any news about Aunt Liu since she went to the capital. Now that her brother was asking about her, she thought it must be something serious.

Shui Rong squeezed the girl's small hand, feeling how soft it was, and whispered, "That concubine Liu is now with Brother Lian, and I heard she's pregnant now."

When Daiyu heard this, her delicate body trembled slightly and her fair face was stunned.

She was smart and quick-witted, and she guessed the meaning of Shui Rong's words. She was suspicious when Aunt Liu chose to go to Beijing on the boat, but she didn't care.

Now that Aunt Liu is with Brother Lian, I'm afraid that by then the two of them would have already...
Thinking of this, even though Daiyu understood Aunt Liu's choice, she couldn't help but feel an indescribable anger deep in her heart.

When my father's body was still warm, Aunt Liu was already having an affair with Lian'er. How could she be worthy of my father?

The key point is that judging from Shui Rong's attitude, it seems that Shui Rong has known about this matter for a long time, but he is the one who has been kept in the dark and feels like he has been made a fool of.

After a long silence, Daiyu sighed and whispered, "At the beginning, I told Madam Liu to find her own way out. Since this is her choice, let her go."

Although she complained, Daiyu couldn't say anything. She wouldn't vent her anger on Aunt Liu, right?

Shui Rong understood what was happening. Since Daiyu had agreed to let Aunt Liu find her own way out, it showed that Daiyu was definitely not a pedantic person, nor was she a truly sarcastic and mean person.

Thinking of this, Shui Rong tightened his arms around the girl's waist and said gently, "Well, listen to Pin'er."

Daiyu raised her bright eyes to look at the young man, and said with a hum, "Brother, don't think I don't know. Um~"

Before she could finish her words, the young man came closer and kissed her pink lips, leaving her speechless for a moment. Her beautiful eyes closed involuntarily, allowing the young man to take advantage of her.

Why does this person love to shut her up? (End of this chapter)
