The Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 151 Uneasy and kindhearted Eryou enters the mansion
The second master of Ouyang's family entered his mother's yard with a gloomy face, and the few maids who were playing in the corridor all stepped aside when they saw this, and looked at the distraught second master with bated breath.

The old lady Ouyang was joking with her two granddaughters. When she saw her son coming in, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Didn't you say that the servant of the official department invited you over for a drink? Why did you come back so early? What about your third brother? Your lord servant Would you like to help?"

Of the three sons of the old lady Ouyang, the one who loves the most is the youngest one.It is true that Ouyang's family is famous in Yangzhou, but there is no one in the officialdom. The third master studied with his husband since he was a child.

The old lady cherished her son, and took the third son's descendants by her side to raise them personally. Now that Ouyang's family has attached to the big tree of the fifth prince, the old lady wholeheartedly borrowed this advantage to move the third son.

After hearing the old lady's question, the second master said in a vicious voice: "Mother, don't worry about this, now the Xing family is bullying too much, and they are riding wildly on our shoulders, so why don't mother care?"

The old lady Ouyang suddenly became solemn, and turned away a group of serving maids: "What do you mean? What's wrong with the Xing family!"

"Didn't mother hear the sound of firecrackers outside just now? That's a new boy in the Xing family who is demonstrating against our family!"

The old lady Ouyang couldn't help laughing and said: "Hey, what a big deal happened to me! Then the Xing family only has one sister, even if Mrs. Lu gave birth to twins, is it worth the prosperity of our family's descendants? Besides, this alley is full Who doesn't know that the Xing family is going to have a baby, and it's worth being so angry with you."

After the old lady finished speaking, she wanted to ask her two granddaughters to come over and draw cards with herself. The second master said anxiously: "My dear mother! If it's just for this, why should I argue! Do you know who hung up the happy event at the door just now? It's our fifth prince." Your Highness, the Xing family is obviously fighting with us, and is twisting with the Long Live Lord! The Long Live Lord said clearly that day that the fifth prince came out of our Ouyang Mansion, even if he reuses his relatives, he has nothing to do with the Xing Family. But mother will look at it now. The Xing family looks like they are making a big fuss, lest people don't know that they have raised the fifth prince for six or seven years."

Ouyang Huiping, the second master's daughter, also echoed: "That's right! Grandma, the Xing family is too annoying. Let's not talk about it, just talk about that girl in their family, what kind of young lady is playing in front of my sister and me? Huh, their Xing family is not good. She's just a shabby hukou who started selling cakes, and she really thinks of herself as a rich lady!"

It turned out that a few days ago, two young ladies from the Ouyang family went to the Jinlou to choose jewelry for the old lady. When they went out, they squeezed together with Xing Xiuyan's carriage and got stuck in the alley. They are not giving in to each other.

Ouyang Huiping was aggressive, unwilling to retreat first, and forced the Xing family to make way.

Is Xiuyan the kind that can be grasped?
She put on the veiled hat herself, Shi Shiran got out of the carriage, and was surrounded by more than a dozen maids and women, and entered the gate of Xing's house slowly, leaving three or four carts to continue blocking the alley, but refused Give in to the Ouyang family first.

Ouyang Huiping was so angry that she jumped up and down, wishing she could get out of the car and tear up Xing Xiuyan.

The women of Ouyang's family shouted at the street, saying that the Xing family blocked the way and asked the neighbors to come out and uphold justice.I don't know if it's because the Ouyang family's family style is too bad, or whether the people's house has seen who the fifth prince is close to and who is far away from him. In short, after Ouyang Huiping made such a move, the neighbors who came out to watch the excitement not only did not accuse the Xing family of arrogance, but instead scolded Ouyang's house Too fussy.

In the end, the Golden Tower naturally failed, Ouyang Huiping scolded Xing Xiuyan at home for four or five days, and hated Xing Xiuyan to the bone.

Huiling gently tugged on her sister's sleeve, and persuaded in a low voice: "Don't stir up trouble, the ancestor and the second uncle have their own way to deal with this. Besides, you were also on that day, and it is common sense for Miss Xing to refuse to give way .”

The second master heard that the daughter of the third brother's family scolded his daughter in front of the elders. He felt unhappy and said in a deep voice: "Girl Huiling, what you said is wrong. What kind of character is your sister Huiping? Is it the old lady?" And I don't know yet? Besides, after the incident happened that day, your sister also told my second uncle in detail that the Xing family was indeed too much. It doesn't make sense, don't you see it clearly? Don't waste your second uncle's love for you in the past!"

Ouyang Huiling immediately felt ashamed and dared not speak again.

The old lady felt sorry for her granddaughter, and quickly cast a glance at her son: "With this spare time, why don't you go and invite the fifth prince here? I haven't seen His Highness for a few days, and I really think about it. The Xing family's battle is so big that the neighbors can see it." Come on, the fifth prince came to our side, the rumors will be self-defeating, and we will gain face if we say it."

The second master sneered and said: "It's not that the son poured cold water on mother, I'll go and invite him. The fifth prince may not be willing to come. According to the son's wishes, or what Gu Erlang said, we should teach the Xing family a lesson!" The second master's eyes sparkled A faint light, like a jackal in the middle of the night, full of bad ideas, just looking at the opportunity to give someone a hard bite.

"Now that the Xing family has a baby, this is an excellent opportunity. My son means that the Xing family should know the consequences of offending us."

The old lady didn't think about it for a moment, and immediately shouted: "Don't say such nonsense again. Our Ouyang family has never used such indecent methods, then Gu Erlang is not a good guy, and you should avoid dealing with him from now on."

Seeing that the old lady was really angry, several people didn't dare to say any more, they hurriedly got up and retreated.

The old lady Ouyang sat alone on the couch sullenly, but she couldn't get her mind back from her son's words.Now that her husband has returned to Yangzhou and left the affairs of the capital to himself, the old lady always feels powerless.The Fifth Prince is always alienated and indifferent to Ouyang's family, so the choice of Fengwei Hutong as the new house in the first place is meaningless.It's not the Xing Mansion who is shameless, but their Ouyang family.
Could it be that he really wanted to follow Gu Erlang's wishes and use dirty tricks to deal with the Xing family?
The old lady Ouyang tossed and turned that night, and stayed up almost all night.Early the next morning, she ordered someone to pack up eight big gifts, and took her granddaughters to the opposite door to congratulate her.

It wasn't just their family who came to congratulate them, several wives and wives who had a good relationship came early to join in the fun. The storeroom of the Xing family was filled with various tonics in a short time. The housekeeper followed the girl's instructions and used a small basket Crispy jujube returned the gift.This crispy jujube is still a new thing, and it is delicious to eat, but only the Xing family's Zhuangzi in Suzhou has it, and you can't buy it with money elsewhere.

The person who returns the gift has face, and the person who gives the gift also feels that the Xing family is generous.

As soon as the old lady of Rongguo Mansion learned that the Xing family had a new son, she hurriedly sent Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang to congratulate her. Mrs. Wang said that she had a cold last night and couldn't get up, so she begged the old lady to change.The older Jia's mother was, the less she wanted to haggle over every detail with Mrs. Wang, and she asked Li Wan to replace Mrs. Wang even though her chest was tight.

Before going out, Mother Jia thought for a while, and then sent mandarin ducks to the garden to call Tanchun.

Mrs. Xing brought two newcomers here today, they are the natal sisters of Dongfu Youshi, Second Sister You and Third Sister You.Seeing that Fengwei Hutong was just ahead, Mrs. Xing tirelessly exhorted: "Our Xing family is no better than your sister's house. The rules are stricter, and the eyelids of maids and women are also higher. You two sisters, be careful what you say. People don’t even know they’ve committed a crime.”

Third Sister You rolled her eyes, and Second Sister You forced a smile at Mrs. Xing.

"Hmph, don't take my words as wind. It doesn't matter if you lose me at that time. Your eldest sister is annoyed for a while, so don't ask me to help you intercede."

Third Sister You couldn't bear the old man's flamboyant appearance, so she took off her handkerchief and covered her mouth with a smile: "Look at what the eldest lady said, my sister and I are country girls and have never seen the world, so it is the eldest lady who pulls me Sister is here. The eldest lady couldn't bear it, so we went to Xing's house, couldn't help it, and simply stopped immediately, and my sister and I hired another small sedan chair to go back, so as not to be disgusted by people here."

"you"

Second Sister You saw signs of a sword being on the verge of breaking out, so she hurried out to make peace, first to appease Mrs. Xing, and then to wink at Third Sister You.

"Eldest lady, don't be as knowledgeable as my younger sister. Our mother spoiled me at home." Second Sister You said carefully: "Eldest lady is doing my best for both of us. , Second Sister will do her best."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xing's complexion began to improve slightly, but she ignored Third Sister You, and only talked with Second Sister: "Your eldest sister is right, but you still understand some things. Over there is my natal family. You and your sister can live a good life, just waiting for a word from me."

The third sister You sneered from the side: "If the eldest lady really loves my second sister, she will fulfill her wish and let your son Lian Erye marry her to be a decent wife. Don't talk about it for a long time, but it is still just for a lonely old man." concubine."

Mrs. Xing gouged out Third Sister You with a sharp knife, and said in her heart: I don't know good and bad things, and I wanted to flatter you two, but I didn't expect to pay respects to an evil star.No wonder Youshi was eager to marry the two sisters quickly, they turned out to be two white-eyed wolves.

"You two still have a childish temper after all." Mrs. Xing put on an appearance of an elder listening: "I'll keep it a secret for now, and when you two meet the real dominatrix in the mansion over there, you will know that I love your sister How good it is!"

In the Xing Mansion, Sister Feng brought Sister Qiao to help early in the morning. Sister Qiao had not seen Zhengde for a long time and was a bit unfamiliar, but she was very interested in the newborn little brother. On the other side, no one called and refused to leave.Zhengde was also reluctant to leave his younger brother, so the two little ones were neat and tidy, and the Queen Mother stayed there like a golden boy and jade girl under the passionflower seat, and everyone who saw him would praise him a few words.

Sister Feng was happier in her heart, even more excited than she was about having a son, and she was not too tired, so she came in and out to help with the housekeeping.

Not too long ago, the report came from the front, saying that the eldest wife of the Rongguo Mansion brought grandma and the girls here.Wang Xifeng yelled inwardly, but still forced herself to come out with a smile on her face.

Second Sister You and Third Sister You got out of the sedan chair and saw that the door of the Xing family's mansion was extraordinarily open and bright, and the servants standing at the door were more handsome and pleasing than those of the East Mansion, so they believed Mrs. Xing a little.

The Xing family really has the capital to be proud of.

Just after entering the main entrance, the two sisters saw a group of maids and daughters-in-law coming out of the hanging flower gate surrounded by a beautiful woman.This person is dressed differently from the sisters of the You family. They are brilliantly embroidered and look like fairy concubines. On their heads, they wear gold silk hairpins with eight treasures and pearls. Wearing a satin shirt with red flowers and red flowers, a pair of red and phoenix triangular eyes, two curved willow-leaf brows, a slender figure and a coquettish physique. Smell first.

Second Sister You and Third Sister You unconsciously applauded in unison in their hearts, she is really a rare and beautiful beauty, they are in vain in their hometown, and no one can match them. Recently, when they saw this woman in Xing Mansion, they couldn't help but praise her sincerely .

"I don't know when my wife came, my daughter-in-law, I'm late, please forgive me."

When Second Sister You heard that the other party called her Mrs. Xing's daughter-in-law, her heart fluttered.Mrs. Xing has only two sons, one is Jia Lian, whom the second sister You likes, and the other is Jia Cong, who has no ambitions.

The woman opposite is obviously impossible to be Jia Cong's wife, so to speak.
Second Sister You's eyes lit up, and she felt that her chance was right in front of her eyes.

Mrs. Xing put her hand on Wang Xifeng's wrist, walked in, and asked how Mrs. Lu was doing.

"My wife knows that my aunt is always in good health. I heard that the delivery didn't take much effort. In addition, Miss Lin and Miss Lin coordinated well, so there was nothing wrong with it."

"So the two of them are in charge of the house now?"

Wang Xifeng laughed: "Madam, why did you forget that since my aunt became pregnant, this mansion was taken care of by Eldest Sister Xing. If you want me to say, there is no second such good girl in the whole capital. Whoever marries her will be the one who will marry her." What a blessing!"

Third Sister You had a rift with Xing Xiuyan, so she immediately sneered behind Mrs. Xing's back.

Sister Feng raised her brows: "Which family is this girl from? The masters are talking, you're going crazy here in a weird way, it's so unruly."

In fact, Wang Xifeng guessed their identities as soon as Eryou entered the door.Nowadays, although Sister Feng doesn't care much about Jia Lian's affairs, she often has a servant who informs her.Her husband was helping out in Dongfu in those days, and Youshi's sister missed Jia Lian with malicious intentions, and Sister Feng knew it all in her heart.

Mrs. Xing hurriedly said: "These are the two younger sisters of your sister-in-law, and I will come to visit my mother's house with me today. I have agreed in front of you, these two girls are shy Temperament, especially the second sister."

Mrs. Xing dragged Second Sister You out of the crowd, and said with a smile, "Second Sister is a rare good girl, don't make things difficult for her, you phoenix!"

Second Sister You still had that little bit of extravagant hope in her heart, she blushed even more when she heard Mrs. Xing boasting about herself like this, she bowed her head in silence, but there was a different style in it.

Wang Xifeng gritted her teeth secretly, while perfunctory, led everyone into the inner courtyard.What I saw and heard on the way, even the always carefree Third Sister You became a little more cautious. It can be seen that in her sister's heart, she has believed in the words of the eldest wife: the Xing family is indeed not to be underestimated, it is a place where crouching tigers hide dragons.
