The Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 16 Sister Feng Values ​​Love and Pinger Values ​​Justice (please recommend for collection)

Jia Zheng was ashamed by Zhao'er's old face. What big things could happen in the family, but he was waiting for Mr. Lin's million-dollar property to survive.

At the beginning when the eldest brother discussed how to divide the windfall, Jia Zheng was still a little tired, thinking that such an act was not done by a gentleman.But a gentleman also has to eat, and a gentleman also has to dress.

Mrs. Wang took the account book at home and looked at it for herself, and Jia Zheng knew that his annual salary was only more than two hundred taels of silver, but the family expenses were more than 500 taels for hiring relatives, cleaning guests and husbands alone.I don't know how much it costs when I come across calligraphy, painting and fans that he likes.

The family has been unable to make ends meet for many years, relying on Mrs. Wang and the old lady's self-sufficiency to support them.

Jia Zheng is soft-tempered, strong people are weak, and weak people are strong.When Jia Zheng saw Mrs. Wang crying again, the last line of defense in his heart completely collapsed, and his eldest brother sent Lian to Jiangnan to collect money.

Now, when Jia Zhengmeng heard that Zhao'er said about Brother Lian's death on the road, he felt more and more guilty, thinking that this was God's watching and retribution for Jia's family.If not, the Lin family sent gifts to Rongguo Mansion every year, with countless real gold and silver, how could they have seen being robbed?

Jia Zheng was worried about this, but Jia She was worried about something else.

The elder had endured it for a long time, and finally said: "Didn't Lian'er ask you to bring anything important?"

As soon as Jia Amnesty's words came out, Wang Xifeng stopped crying and looked at Zhao'er together with Mrs. Xing and Wang.

Zhao'er behaved at a loss, not knowing which one to look at.Jia Mu smiled softly: "You are a good boy, there are no outsiders in this room now, what Brother Lian asked you to say, just tell us the truth."

Zhao'er seemed to have made great determination, and said softly: "The second master asked the younger one to send a message to the two masters, saying that after Master Lin left, he left a total of 50 taels of silver, plus several large farms. It is about to be sold, and there will be more than 70 taels. The second master asked the young man to ask the masters how to bring the money back? Should he go to the bank, or should he still go by water and find some escorts to escort it?"

Everyone hurriedly waved their hands, and Jia's mother said: "You can't do it! Do you dare to take it as your own fate? Naturally, it is safe to leave the bank." Although the bank has a dark heart, it is at least safe.

Zhao'er secretly smiled inwardly, the second master is indeed powerful, everyone's attention is shifted to the issue of safety, why do they care about the amount of money?In the eyes of these gentlemen and wives, 70 taels of silver is better than nothing, and it is better to be robbed by robbers.

Zhao'er was secretly elated, but Jia She was a little upset: "It's only 70? Don't it be you." Jia She wanted to say, don't your second master be greedy for ink, and suddenly remembered that Jia Lian is his own son, even if he is greedy. Let's go, the money is also the money of the first house, why should I be troublesome, but let the second house couple take advantage of it?

Jia She chuckled, stopped talking, but didn't ask anything else.

Jia Zheng didn't pay attention, but his daughter-in-law, Wang Shi, felt awkward.

She personally counts the gifts from the Lin family every year. Mrs. Wang has already guessed how much Lin Ruhai has, and if she doesn't say a million, say more. That's not double the matter.Now that Jia Lian reported back 70 taels, Mrs. Wang could not wait to go to Suzhou to inspect it in person to see how much Jia Lian had pocketed.

Mrs. Wang couldn't help but hate her niece Wang Xifeng as well. Poor Wang Xifeng is still foolishly making wedding dresses for her aunt, subsidizing her own private house for an unknown amount.

When he returned to his yard at night, Ping'er knew that Wang Xifeng hadn't eaten, so he hurriedly asked the cook to prepare the always warm food.They are all Wang Xifeng's favorite food in the past, such as fried lamb, white sausage, preserved bream, frozen fish head, ginger and soy sauce. The whole table is full, but Wang Xifeng has no appetite at all.

Ping'er personally tore a piece of elbow meat and put it into Wang Xifeng's bowl: "Grandma, at least take a bite, tomorrow I have to go to the East Mansion!"

Although Wang Xifeng was an outstanding woman, she lost her mind when she heard the news that her husband was injured.Wang Xifeng only hated that she couldn't turn into a phoenix and fly to her husband's side, just serving tea and water, as long as Jia Lian was safe and sound, Wang Xifeng was also willing.

But can she go?Not to mention that the two masters refused to agree, even the second wife would never let me go.

How can this be good?

When Wang Xifeng was at her wit's end, a pair of chopsticks suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and it was Ping'er who was picking fishbone for her.Wang Xifeng's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly grabbed Ping'er, "Ping'er, my good girl, grandma has left the second master to you."

The monk Ping'er Zhang Er was puzzled, "What did grandma say?"

Wang Xifeng said that she planned to send Ping'er to Suzhou to serve Jia Lian.After hearing this, Ping'er was overjoyed, she was naturally willing, but Ping'er didn't dare to show secret joy on his face, she knew Second Mistress's temper, if she agreed too quickly, Second Mistress would be suspicious.

Ping'er looked distressed: "I'm leaving, what about grandma? Grandma is taking care of all the big and small things in the house. I'm by grandma's side. At least I'll take care of the backyard for you, lest those little girls and old women will play tricks and be lazy secretly. "

Wang Xifeng was relieved, she took Ping'er's hand and persuaded: "Good girl, I understand your heart. Now you take good care of your second master Lian, you really love me! The two of us have relied on him for half our lives. Lord, if there is something good for him." Wang Xifeng suddenly choked up, Ping'er heard it sadly, the master and servant didn't even eat, hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Zhou Rui's family who came from outside the door did not dare to go in, she thought for a while, and finally turned around and went back to Mrs. Wang Ming.

Mrs. Wang was serving Jia Zheng for dinner. When she saw Zhou Rui's family poking around in the main room, she knew she had something to tell her.Mrs. Wang got up and walked lightly to the main room. Zhou Rui's family hurriedly told Mrs. Wang about Wang Xifeng's plan to send Miss Ping'er to Suzhou. Tell the old man about it!"

Mrs. Wang's complexion darkened, secretly thinking that Feng girl was dishonest.She was probably afraid that she wouldn't be able to stop her, so she wanted to bypass herself and go directly to Jia Amnesty. If the uncle spoke, since she was neither Lian'er's mother nor Feng girl's mother-in-law, how could she stop her?

The more Mrs. Wang thought about it, the more she felt that Wang Xifeng was not caring, and she was only thinking about the big house. Just as she was about to speak, Jia Zheng looked up and saw their master and servant standing there whispering.

Jia Zheng never liked Zhou Rui's family, so he scolded lightly: "What are you talking about standing there? Your wife can't make people calm down even after a meal."

Zhou Rui's family was so embarrassed that there was no place to stay, Mrs. Wang had already turned around, and took her seat with a light smile: "I sent Zhou Rui's family to see Feng girl, I heard that this child loves brother Lian, and I plan to ask Ping'er to follow Zhao'er and wait Let's go to Suzhou together."

This is about the big house, Jia Zheng didn't want to ask, just nodded lightly: "This is also very good, the boys said it lightly, I'm afraid Lian'er will encounter more dangers, and there is someone who knows the pain and warmth by his side." Girl, you can come back sooner."

Mrs. Wang laughed and said, "That's what I mean too. In addition, I want to ask Zhou Rui's family to help."

Zhou Rui's family complained secretly, she already knew about the water bandits on the road from Mrs. Wang, and if she went to Suzhou, she would still have to take the water route, if she met that screwdriver that would kill without blinking an eye, wouldn't she die in vain?No matter how much money you have, you can't get your life back.

Jia Zheng seemed to be connected with Zhou Rui's family, and shouted sharply: "Nonsense!"

Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she shuddered.

"Ping'er is Brother Lian's housemate, so it's okay for her to go. Why did you send this woman there? Are you telling elder brother that our second house should take care of his son's affairs? You don't think the house is messy enough, do you?"

Jia Zheng's scathing accusations made Mrs. Wang unable to step down immediately.

Aunt Zhou, who was serving the dishes, hurriedly pulled Aunt Zhao to leave, but Aunt Zhao wanted to shake off Aunt Zhou's restraint. She finally saw the second wife eat a turtle, but she couldn't make Aunt Zhou happy!

Aunt Zhou saw that she couldn't drag Aunt Zhao away, and she couldn't go out by herself, so she could only bite the bullet and continue to stand behind Jia Zheng.

Mrs. Wang was extremely embarrassed, and she made an embarrassment in front of her two rivals, which made Zhao and Zhou Zhou feel even more hated.But this is not the time to settle accounts, and it is only serious that Mrs. Wang has to deal with Jia Zheng.

Mrs. Wang said with tears in her voice: "Why do I think my family is not chaotic enough? These years, I put the family first in everything, and even the old lady praised me a bit. If I didn't care about this family, I wouldn't treat my poor Send my daughter to that kind of place! Now I don’t know if I’m alive or dead, and you’ve complained about me.”

Mrs. Wang turned her back and wept softly, Zhou Rui's family hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her.When Jia Zheng saw Mrs. Wang's appearance, he lost his mind and poured a pot of wine uncomfortably, "I just don't want you to overstep, elder brother has long been dissatisfied with Feng girl's approaching you, if you are concerned about Brother Lian at this time If you get involved too, I'm afraid that the brotherhood that has existed for many years will be gone."

Mrs. Wang also knew that her husband was right, but she just didn't want the money to go into the pocket of the big house for nothing.Mrs. Wang wiped away the few tears she had shed, and said softly: "That girl Feng is still my niece. Brother Lian was the one I grew up with. I treat him like Jia Zhu and Baoyu. Something happened to the child. , I feel more distressed than anyone else."

Faced with Mrs. Wang's plausible words, Jia Zheng showed no sign of letting go.Mrs. Wang finally did not see her husband agreeing, so she had no choice but to let the matter go.

On the second day, Ping'er took the two women to see Jia's mother. Jia's mother knew that this was what Wang Xifeng meant, and praised her Feng girl, and asked someone to pack the knife wound medicine that Wang Taiyi had prepared overnight. I brought a big bag to Ping'er, and brought her 200 taels of silver for private use.

"Tell Lian'er, don't be afraid, I'm here for everything at home! Just take good care of it in Suzhou, and if you don't come later this year, you can stay for two more days, but there is one thing. Don't let others bully Miss Lin, I don't agree of."

Ping'er agreed one by one.She was just about to leave when she saw Jia Baoyu waving at her in the green gauze cabinet behind, as if she wanted to say something.
