I'm in the Red Mansion

Chapter 103: Attack?

This bastard with a balloon-like body not only plotted against me, but I have yet to take revenge on him. Now I have to help him change his courtyard and find him two good maids, a servant, and a coachman.

snort!
I'm going to have to choose carefully for him!

Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng suddenly had an idea and thought of two suitable candidates.

This was a task assigned by Lady Jia, so Wang Xifeng did not dare to neglect it.

She first laid out the reward money, and then really took her maid to clean up the yard next to Lixiangyuan.

At the gate of Lixiangyuan, Wang Xifeng happened to meet Xue Baochai who was just leaving.

Xue Baochai couldn't help asking, "Second sister-in-law Lian, I wonder what you are doing here with these people?"

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Now that Brother Bu Cong has passed the examination and become a scholar, it is not appropriate for him to live in the original courtyard."

"The old ancestor said to clean up this yard and let Brother Cong move in."

Hearing this, Xue Baochai's heart beat faster.

Brother Cong is going to move into this yard?

Want to be her neighbor?

In this way, it would be more convenient to meet in the future.

I don’t know why, but after hearing these words, Xue Baochai felt a little distracted.

She said a few words to Wang Xifeng and turned away.

Wang Xifeng felt that Xue Baochai was a little strange today, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

He personally supervised the people who cleaned up the yard, and then led people to the warehouse, carried a lot of useful things, and moved them to the house.

In this regard, Wang Xifeng did not play any tricks at all.

Even if she wanted to take revenge on Cong Lao San, she would never start in this way.

First, it is too petty.

Secondly, if the ancestors knew about it, it would be bad, as it would be embarrassing in front of them.

After putting everything in place, Wang Xifeng checked it personally and found nothing wrong. Only then did she leave with satisfaction.

After returning to Rongqing Hall, everyone had already left.

Wang Xifeng reported, "Grandfather, I have personally seen the yard cleaned up, and all the furniture inside has been put away."

"Old Ancestor, do you want to go and take a look to see if there are any deficiencies?"

Grandmother Jia smiled and said, "You are the most capable person. Since you have already seen it, why do I need to see it again? I am at ease with you doing your job."

"It's getting late now. I asked Brother Cong to come over for dinner tonight. I'll ask him to move over tomorrow when I have time."

Wang Xifeng added, "The ancestor just told me to select two more maids for Cong."

"I think there is someone who is just right for you, but I wonder if you are willing to give him up?"

Hearing this, Jia's mother couldn't help but look at Wang Xifeng and asked, "Oh, you two are indeed a family. You, as the sister-in-law, really side with your brother-in-law."

"Which one do you like? As long as it's not a mandarin duck, I'm willing to give it up."

Wang Xifeng laughed and said, "I know that Yuanyang is the apple of your eye. You can never leave her. How dare I ask for Yuanyang?"

"I think Xiren is a good girl. She is well-behaved, sensible and prudent. It would be a good idea to let her serve Brother Cong."

Hearing Wang Xifeng's words, Jia's mother also smiled and said, "You have a good eye. I also like this girl who does things prudently."

"I once gave this girl to Baoyu, but who knew that they were not meant to be together? For some reason, Baoyu drove this girl out."

"I've seen this girl being depressed for a while now, and I don't bother to pay attention to her."

"It's okay to ask her to serve Congge'er. You can go and talk to her in person."

Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Since the ancestor has agreed, I will go and tell Xiren the good news."

As she spoke, Wang Xifeng really got up to look for Xiren. As she walked out of the room, the smile on Wang Xifeng's face turned into a sneer.

She knew that Xiren had made a false accusation to Lady Wang, and the person she had made the accusation against was exactly the third son of Cong.

When she suggested to Lady Jia that Xiren serve Jia Cong, she had no good intentions.

Next, Wang Xifeng found Xiren and told her the news.

Xiren was stunned when she heard this. She didn't know what she was thinking. She didn't even hear clearly what Wang Xifeng said when she was teasing her.

After Wang Xifeng left, several maids in Jia Mu's room congratulated Xiren one after another.

In their hearts, they truly envied Xiren.

Being a maidservant beside Lady Jia was certainly respectable, but even the eldest and second masters did not treat them with respect when they saw them.

However, this dignity is false. Once the ancestor passes away, they will have no good place to go.

On the contrary, Master Cong Sanye's place is actually a good place to go.

Although Third Master Cong is only a concubine's son, he is diligent in his studies and has now passed the imperial examination and become a scholar.

It is not known whether he will pass the imperial examination and become a juren or even a jinshi.

If I could gain the favor of Third Master Cong, I would be able to be born as a concubine in the future and have a son or daughter, then I would have a support in this life.

Xiren was distracted as she dealt with the maids perfunctorily. With everyone's help, she packed the package.

He went to see Lady Jia first and kowtowed to her.

Then she carried the package and went towards the main room.

Soon, she arrived at Jia Cong's courtyard.

But in Jia Cong's courtyard, Qingwen saw Xiren who had just entered the house carrying a package.

Qingwen was immediately surprised.

Because in this world, Qingwen was never given to Jia Baoyu by Grandmother Jia, and there is no competition between Qingwen and Xiren.

The two of them had served Lady Jia together, and their relationship was very good.

When Qingwen saw Xiren coming, she was very happy.

She couldn't help but step forward and said happily, "Xiren, you're here? I've heard that the Third Master is going to add two big maids, but I never thought it would be you who came. It's great!"

"Here, give me the package, I'll help you settle down first."

Xiren smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Qingwen."

Qingwen said, "We are sisters, why are you being so polite to me?"

I have to say that Jia Cong's yard is indeed a little small.

Originally, Jia Cong only had two maids, Hongxiu and Qingwen, which was just right.

Now with the addition of Xiren, the place seems crowded.

After a while, another girl came with a package on her back.

This maid's name is Keren.

Qingwen took her and settled her down, then took the two girls to kowtow to Jia Cong.

Jia Cong was very surprised to see Xiren and Keren.

He could understand that after he passed the examination and became a scholar, Lady Jia would give him two maids.

But Jia Cong found it a little difficult to understand why he asked Xiren to come and serve him.

As for the other Keren, this name has never appeared in the book "Dream of Red Mansions", which shows that she is an unknown person.

Her appearance was only average, but she had a seductive aura that made her quite alluring.
