I am cultivating immortality in the Red Mansion

Chapter 16 Patterns
Meiren had a pale face: "I, I..." But she couldn't explain why, so she looked at Jia Lian in confusion.

Jia Lian's brows furrowed and his tone suddenly changed: "How many days have you been in charge of Baoyu's room? Are you starting to question the master like this? It doesn't matter that I know her well, it's as if I'm not familiar with you. You call me that on weekdays. , when did I stop answering? Can’t I answer her alone?” He then asked Charming: “What is your name?”

Meiren didn't know what he meant and hurriedly reported it.

"Look, I don't even know what her name is, yet you have to blame me for it." Jia Lian snorted and squinted: "I'll tell the old lady tomorrow to send you away. See if you still dislike me." Are you familiar with others but not you?"

Xiren felt very aggrieved, tears welled up in his eyes and he was about to fall down, but he didn't know how to defend himself, so he bit his lips tightly and twitched.

Suddenly a girl's voice sounded nearby: "Second Brother, what you said is interesting. Since you didn't know which Second Master you were calling, why did you come over and say it was you? You didn't even ask if it was Brother Bao Er or you, Why are you so sure it's you when you talk to a charming woman? She's from Brother Bao Er's room."

Jia Lian's face suddenly darkened as dark as the bottom of a pot: "If you continue to be so rampant, be careful and I will punish you." As he spoke, he raised his hand as if to hit someone.

Of course he wanted to scare the little girl.

Jia He, however, acted very frightened and stammered, "If the second brother does this again, I will ask the second sister-in-law to search for him. Since the second brother refuses to talk to others, he will always talk to the second sister-in-law." of."

Her words stunned several people.

Who doesn't know that Second Mistress Lian of Rongguo Mansion eats Master Lian to death and doesn't even dare to be arrogant in front of her?If Wang Xifeng is really attracted, Jia Lian may not even dare to speak.

Xiren Meiren was stunned after hearing this.Jia Lian was also startled.

Jia He spread his legs and looked at the gap between them and the door frame, running out.

Jia Lian had already reacted and hurried forward to stop him: "My little ancestor, why did you call your second sister-in-law here? My brother will buy you delicious food. Come on, let's go to the door of the house to buy candied haws." With that, he was about to go. Drag her.

Jia He is so smart, how can he stop him?He immediately turned sideways to avoid his claws, then ducked and feinted to the side.Before he could react, she had already escaped and ran into the yard.

Meiren was stunned and asked Xiren in confusion: "Did you see how the fifth girl escaped?"

Xiren's eyes were dim with tears. Where could he see clearly?Instead of answering, he asked: "How did you get to know Mr. Lian? Even if you don't say it, you already know it, right? In that case, you should bear your own responsibility for anything from now on, and don't involve others!" Then he ignored her again.

After all, due to her short legs and thin body, Jia Huan ran slowly in the courtyard. When she saw Jia Lian chasing after her in two or two steps, he reached out to pick her up.

She didn't stop doing anything, and simply took out something from her arms and let the pattern dazzle in front of Jia Lian's eyes.

The moment the Bingdilian pattern appeared, Jia Lian's face suddenly became distorted and his steps became chaotic. His feet touched each other and almost tripped each other.Fortunately, a servant was there to help him after he stumbled, and he was able to regain his balance and regain his balance.

But when he took a breath and regained his composure, the little figure had already quickly ran to the verandah. Without waiting for the maids to open the curtain, he quickly pushed open the felt curtain and slipped into the house.

Jia Lian was angry, anxious and annoyed. He turned around and wanted to ask how the charming thing got into the hands of the little girl. But when he saw the attacker was there, he was afraid that he would make too many mistakes, so he could only stomp out and walk out, not forgetting to order the people around him. Zhao'er: "Go and call me Charming."

Zhaoer looked around and said nervously: "Master, now is not the time." He pointed to the main room and signaled that Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing and others were there.

Jia Lian walked out of the yard with a livid face.

The room was filled with warmth.

Just when there was a noise outside, Jia Lian went out, and then Baoyu took Lin Daiyu to whisper somewhere. Several sisters left one after another, leaving only Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng and Jia Mu.

Mrs. Xing ordered Wang Shanbao's family to do things at the door.The maid brought a new cup of tea to Wang Xifeng, but she didn't drink it. She just used the lid to skim the tea powder.From time to time he would sigh, and there seemed to be a sad look on his face.

Mrs. Wang asked: "Looking at your situation, are you in trouble? You might as well speak up and listen."

"I can't say this to my wife, so I have to talk to my ancestors." Wang Xifeng put down the tea cup and moved to Jia Mu's side. After hesitating for a moment, he finally whispered: "Because on weekdays I have always been in contact with people in the temple when I need to add money for sesame oil, and the old lady knows it. There was a happy event at home yesterday, so I sent someone to give money for sesame oil and asked them to calculate it. Who knows, I will collect it today. I got a reply and said, not very good.”

Mother Jia's smile gradually faded: "How do you say this?"

"I can't read a word and can't understand a word. I just heard them say, what kind of wood is very good, but other things are offensive and so on. There are a lot of clichés."

After Wang Xifeng finished speaking, he looked carefully at Jia Mu's expression and saw that she really listened thoughtfully. She hurriedly covered her mouth with the handkerchief and smiled: "Old ancestor, please don't annoy me. I also think you like to have nothing to do on weekdays. Just ask them to learn from you and seek peace of mind. Who would have thought of making such a fuss."

Mrs. Wang then said: "Mu is very good, so of course he is talking about Daiyu. The person next to him is Su Chong... I'm afraid he is not talking about Sister He?"

Mother Jia frowned and said, "How is that possible?"

"But last night was really not going well." Mrs. Wang said: "Baoyu and Daiyu said a few words, 'I don't want this jade if my sister doesn't have it,' and then I wanted to throw the thing away. On weekdays, He has a gentle temper and would never do such a reckless thing as throwing that baby."

Mother Jia was silent.

Wang Xifeng said hurriedly: "What are you talking about, Madam? In a few days, Sister Hui will be listed in the family tree. She is the legitimate daughter of our family. We don't want to guess her. Otherwise, she will be in a hurry. If you become a member of the family, wouldn't it mean that everyone in the family who is on the family will also suffer?"

The room fell silent for a while.

After a long while, Jia Mu sighed leisurely: "Although Sister He is not the one who made the mistake, the family has been busy recently, so we can put the genealogy aside for the time being and talk about it later."

Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng looked at each other and smiled.

At this time, Jia He dove into the house, stuffed the fan cover into his arms and hid it.Fortunately, her clothes were thick in winter, and since she had just been recognized, she was wearing solid cotton clothes, otherwise it would be difficult to cover up this thing after it was stuffed inside.

After what happened just now, she was basically certain that Jia Lian and Meiren were the ones who committed the crime, as well as Zhaoer and his 20-year-old daughter-in-law.I'm just not sure who the murderer is.

Her body was weak, and the continuous running and hiding had consumed most of her strength. She looked a little embarrassed, and panted, "Here, say hello to grandma." She shook her head and felt blessed.

Wang Xifeng hurriedly took a few steps forward and helped her up with her own hands: "Where have you gone, Fifth Sister? You have to pay attention to your health when you go out to play, and don't get too tired, otherwise your ancestors will feel distressed." There was a thick smile on her brows and eyes. .

Facing Wang Xifeng's sudden extreme enthusiasm, Jia He smiled on his face but was secretly wary in his heart.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Wang Xifeng was openly and secretly hostile to her before, so how could she change her behavior as soon as she burned an incense stick?Something must have happened.

Thinking about the most likely "conflict" between the two in recent days, she had some vague guesses, but she didn't panic. After thanking her, she sat aside, took a cup of tea brought by the maid, and sipped slowly. Sip slowly.

Not urgent.

When the things Jia Lian did come out, we will see who laughs and who cries.
