The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Lin Mansion

After thinking it over clearly, Lin Yun was even less anxious. He wanted to see how the people who made things difficult for him would end up.

...

Lin Yun was not in a hurry, but someone was in a hurry.

Outside a small anteroom for the servants guarding the gate to rest, the servant who had promised to pass the news on Lin Yun's behalf was circling around the door like an ant on a hot pot in a hurry.

After finally waiting for a male servant in a sheepskin jacket to come over, he rushed forward to meet him and said anxiously: "Brother Li Cheng, you are here. The one outside has been waiting for nearly half an hour. If the younger one doesn't call It is said that after the incident, the second master Lian will pursue it, and he must expose my skin."

Li Chengman said nonchalantly: "Look at your success, it depends on your grandfather standing on top, you are afraid of being killed."

"Can I not be afraid, that aunt's nephew has already registered in front of the old lady. If this matter becomes serious, even Grandpa Lai won't be able to handle it."

Li Cheng sneered: "What kind of nephew? He's just a distant relative who can't be beaten with eight sticks. What's wrong with asking him to wait a little longer? Don't forget, this is Rongguo Mansion, not the Lianghuai Patrol Salt Emperor in Yangzhou City Make the Yamen."

"But we can't keep spending time with him like this, can we? With so many people coming in and out, the masters in the mansion will get the news sooner or later."

"Don't worry. Thanks to grandpa's control, no one dares to stand up and meddle in other people's business unless he doesn't want to hang around in the house anymore."

"But~"

"Don't worry, if there is a quarrel, you will be punished at most, and Grandpa Lai will definitely compensate you afterwards."

"OK then."

...

The servant named Li Cheng didn't know, although most of the servants were afraid of Steward Lai's power in the mansion and didn't dare to meddle in other matters.But a maid who helped with chores in the kitchen thought it was a good opportunity to claim credit.

This maid was from Qin Xian's family. Her man was Jia Zheng's long follower. He had mentioned in front of her that Mr. Zheng valued his aunt's nephew and young master very much, and even met him personally.

Now that the young nephew was blocked by the servants outside the west corner door and not allowed to enter the house, she immediately felt that this was a good opportunity to show off her merits, so she found the Lin Zhixiao family who had been flattered by her in the past and told her what she had seen. the other party.

Lin Zhixiao's family became anxious when they heard this, but she knew that Jia Lian and his wife had been waiting for Lin Yun's arrival, but now that he came, they were blocked outside the Xijiao gate.

She hurried to Sister Feng's courtyard, ready to report the matter to the second master and second grandmother.It so happened that Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng were not in the room, only Ping'er was there.

After listening to Lin Zhixiao's family's explanation of the situation, Ping'er also became anxious. She hurriedly sent the little maid out to inform Jia Lian's servant, and hurried to find the second master, while she rushed to Bisha Kitchen to find Wang Xifeng to report the situation.

Wang Xifeng was chatting with Daiyu, Shi Xiangyun, and Sanchun sisters in Baoyu's room, and the topic of everyone's chat was perfume.

Shi Xiangyun has the liveliest temperament. When she heard that the perfume would sell for 50 taels of silver a box, she exclaimed that the price was too expensive, saying that she could not afford a box of perfume even if she saved a year's worth of monthly money without eating or drinking.

Wang Xifeng smiled from the side, "As long as sister Lin is willing to say something nice, maybe Brother Yun will give everyone a box of perfume."

Daiyu said anxiously: "I can't do it. When I was in Yangzhou, I once asked my elder brother to ask for it. He said that little girls are not suitable for wearing perfume."

Yingchun hurriedly asked: "We can even use spices, why can't we use perfume?"

Baoyu: "I guess Brother Lin must think that Sister Lin has a fragrance on her body, so he said that she is not suitable for wearing perfume."

Shi Xiangyun jokingly said: "Brother Ai means that only Sister Lin has a fragrance on her body, and we only have a bad smell on our bodies?"

Baoyu said urgently, "Sister Yun, how can you misinterpret my meaning. I meant to say that all girls have fragrance on their bodies, but the fragrance is different from each other."

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Listen to Baoyu, you all can stop using perfume."

Bao Yu just wanted to explain a few words, but saw a servant girl walk in through the curtain and report to Wang Xifeng: "Second Grandma, Sister Ping'er said she has something urgent to see you."

Wang Xifeng hurriedly stood up, smiled at everyone, "You guys talk first, I'll go out and have a look."

After saying that, she walked out the door in a hurry.

As soon as he walked out of the house, he saw Ping'er approaching anxiously, "Grandma, Lin Zhixiao's family told me that the nephew and young master of my aunt's family have been blocked outside the door for almost half an hour."

Wang Xifeng was taken aback when she heard the words, she quickly asked: "Who gave the order? Why did it not come in until now?"

Ping'er lowered his voice and said: "There are a lot of people talking here, let's go back and talk about it."

Wang Xifeng nodded, and followed Ping'er to her residence.

...

After returning to the house, Ping'er immediately sent out the maids and mother-in-law, and then helped Wang Xifeng to sit on the kang, "I guess this is probably ordered by Manager Lai secretly. Otherwise, no one would have the guts to go Embarrass that young nephew."

"Mostly so."

After a pause, Wang Xifeng asked again: "Have you sent someone to inform the second master?"

Ping'er: "I have sent a servant to look for it. The second master was invited to drink by Uncle Xiaorong from the West Mansion. I don't know if it was the man from the West Mansion who did it."

Wang Xifeng raised his hand to support his forehead, frowned slightly and said: "If this is the case, then it will be troublesome."

"What does grandma mean?"

Wang Xifeng: "It must be that the one from the West Manor is malicious to Brother Yun. If our second master wants to do business with Brother Yun in the future, we will inevitably be hindered by their two brothers."

Ping'er nodded, and then said: "That nephew and young master is also tolerant, I heard that he stood outside the door for nearly half an hour, and he neither forced his way in, nor did he intend to go back home."

"Oh."

Wang Xifeng was very surprised. Based on what she knew about Lin Yun, he was a master who feared neither heaven nor earth. Why did he change his temper today?

Ping'er said again: "Grandma, do you want to tell the old lady about this?"

Wang Xifeng thought for a while, then said: "I can't say this, Nanny Lai has a lot of eyes and ears on the old lady's side, if I open my mouth, she will definitely know about it, we have not established a firm foothold in the mansion, and we can't afford to provoke her right now. That family."

"If you don't say it, if the old lady finds out about it later, will you blame grandma?"

"I can't say it, but it doesn't mean you can't say it either. In this way, you can find a chance to tell Yuanyang."

Ping'er nodded and said, "Okay."

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door.

Not long after, I saw Jia Lian walking in through the curtain.

As soon as he entered the house, he asked the two girls, "What is going on? What did the servant say that Brother Yun was blocked outside the door by servants?"

Wang Xifeng: "Second Master, don't you know? Who in this house wants to make things difficult for Brother Yun? And how can he suppress the news and prevent it from spreading into the house?"

Jia Lian thought for a while and said, "You mean that Director Lai is deliberately making things difficult for Brother Yun?"

"Who else is there besides them?"

Ping'er: "Second Master, don't worry about who did it, just hurry up and bring that nephew and young master in."

"It's reasonable, I'll go outside to pick up people."

After Jia Lian finished speaking, he turned around and hurriedly walked out the door.

...

Outside the Xijiao Gate, just as Lin Yun was thinking about whether to return to the Lin Mansion, he saw Jia Lian coming out of the door in a hurry, followed by the servant who went in to report the letter.

As soon as they met, Jia Lian apologized to Lin Yun and said, "Brother Yun, these damn servants are so ignorant that they blocked you outside the door. I must have kept you waiting for a long time, right?"

Lin Yun smiled and said, "It's okay. I happened to have a few extra drinks at noon, so I'll just treat it as sobering up here."

Jia Lian turned around and yelled at the servant: "Zhao Wang, why don't you come and apologize to my nephew and young master."

The servant named Zhao Wang fell down on his knees in front of Lin Yun, and kowtowed repeatedly: "Master nephew, I just had diarrhea suddenly, so I went to the thatched cottage, please forgive me for my negligence. "

Lin Yun laughed and said, "It's just that I've waited for more than half an hour, and I still want to thank you."

When Jia Lian heard this, he kicked the servant's ass fiercely and cursed angrily, "It's been more than half an hour, why didn't you fall into the latrine?"

"Damn the small ones, damn the small ones."

Lin Yun: "Second brother Lian, why bother with the same servant, you will lose your status. It's getting late, let's go in quickly, I think sister Yu'er is going to be waiting soon."

"Ok."

Jia Lian hurriedly accompanied Lin Yun to the door, and when he passed by the gatekeeper, he didn't forget to kick him.

After entering the door, Jia Lian apologized to Lin Yun, "Brother Yun, what happened today~"

Lin Yun interrupted him and said: "Second brother Lian, you don't need to say any more, I also know a little about the situation in the mansion, the slave bullies the master, let alone I am not the master of your mansion."

Jia Lian smiled shyly and said, "You know, I'm just an errand runner in this mansion. Sometimes housekeeper Lai is better than me in speaking in front of the master and the elder master."

Lin Yun: "Yes! The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds. Brother Lian, I'm a little worried now. If we do business with you, will you have the ability to prevent others from taking it away?"

Jia Lian hurriedly said, "Don't worry about this, I will definitely keep it."

Lin Yun asked with a smile: "If Steward Lai blows the wind in front of the old man and asks you to hand over the shop, do you dare not hand it over?"

"This~"

When Jia Lian heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded. If such a thing happened, he really didn't know how to deal with it.

Chapter 51: Brother Bao, do you want to throw jade again?

Over at Bisha Kitchen, Baoyu, Daiyu, and Sanchun were still joking.

In front of girls, Baoyu is like a flower peacock, always likes to show her perfect side.

He smiled at Daiyu and asked, "Sister Lin, you haven't picked up the characters yet, have you?"

Daiyu asked back with a smile, "What? Could it be that you want to write for me again?"

Shi Xiangyun heard something in Daiyu's words, and immediately interjected, "What's the meaning of Sister Lin's words? Could it be that Brother Ai helped someone choose a name before?"

Daiyu said jokingly: "He wanted to change the name of the maid in my house yesterday, but it's a pity that people don't care about his name."

Baoyu said anxiously: "That girl doesn't know good and bad. The name I chose is very good."

Xichun hurriedly asked, "What's your name?"

Daiyu: "It's called Qingwen."

Yingchun: "Where did it come from?"
