Chapter 779 Five Thousand One(1/2)
Qingtang thatched cottage.
When Aunt Xue saw Mrs. Wang sending a message to Yihongyuan, she couldn't help but curiously asked: "Who is helping Ling go south this time?"
"In addition to Baoyu, there is Brother Huan."
Mrs. Wang said: "The master has left, and there must be someone at home to support him. Besides, Feng Yatou is twins now, so I plan to leave brother Lian at home."
"this……"
Aunt Xue looked around and lowered her voice and said: "I heard that the elder brother almost broke up with you over the inheritance. Now I have Brother Lian alone at home. Isn't it a bit..."
"If you can think of these things, it seems that you have really enlightened yourself."
Mrs. Wang praised, and then said: "Don't worry, right now, the eldest son in the eldest house is fighting for the body left by the old lady - not to mention that the Rongguo Mansion has nothing to offer him.
All that's left is suffering."
After a pause, he further explained: "What's more, when my sister-in-law was fighting for the inheritance, she personally admitted that she would not fight for this mansion. Brother Lian was by the side at the time. Since he did not refute, it is equivalent to acquiescence. If he wants to refute again,
He has no control over his mouth!"
Aunt Xue felt relieved after hearing this.
Although she had quite a few complaints against Mrs. Wang and her son, she still cared about the sisterly bond, so she still hoped that Mrs. Wang would be well.
After chatting for a while, seeing that people would come over from time to time to report on the latest progress of laid-off people gathering to make trouble. Mrs. Wang was always busy, so Aunt Xue took the initiative to say goodbye and left the Qingtang thatched cottage.
It happened that as soon as I went out, I bumped into Caixia coming back from Yihongyuan.
Seeing Aunt Xue, Caixia was about to retreat aside, but Aunt Xue suddenly asked: "You went to Yihongyuan to deliver a message, what did Baoyu say?"
The whole family wanted Baoyu to fall the most. Apart from Aunt Zhao, she was probably Caixia. Naturally, she was unwilling to cover up anything for Baoyu. She pretended to smile bitterly and said: "Second Master Bao is making trouble to replace Aunt Li with Xiren and Sheyue."
, I tried to persuade him a few times, but I don’t know if he listened.”
Aunt Xue frowned when she heard this, then waved her hand and said: "Go in and see your wife, don't keep her waiting."
After saying that, he walked out of the courtyard with a sinking face.
Caixia kept watching her go away, and then she couldn't help but snicker.
For a long time, Baoyu has been the darling of the Rongguo Mansion, while Jia Huan is not much better than Xiao Tingpan. But now that the world has been reversed, Baoyu sees that tomorrow has passed, and he, who bet on Jia Huan, can finally feel proud.
Got it!
Let's wait until the third master is older, and with Uncle Jiao supporting him in the officialdom, why won't he be ten times better than the precious jade that will never be used?
I really want to see what kind of faces those little hooves will show when they rush towards Baoyu!
She was thinking happily here when someone unexpectedly tapped her on the shoulder. When she looked back, it turned out to be Caiyun.
"do what?"
Caixia patted her in turn and said angrily: "You scared me for nothing!"
"You didn't do anything wrong, why are you so cowardly?"
Caiyun smiled and pointed.
This plagued little hoof!
Caixia couldn't help but cursed secretly. Due to her own influence, Caiyun had originally intended to turn to Mr. Huan. Now that the situation has become clearer, she has become more and more concerned about Jia Huan's affairs. She even moves faster than Aunt Zhao.
I am still diligent.
But when she thought about it again, Caixia couldn't help but smile proudly.
What's the use of Caiyun trying to fawn over Aunt Zhao? How did she know that the root of this thread is actually tied to Uncle Jiao's waist? She openly talks about her parents-in-law with Aunt Zhao, but secretly they are sisters who are at war with each other in the same room.
In this relationship, what does Caiyun compare to herself?
So he took a deep look at Caiyun, and then went to find Mrs. Wang's life.
Caiyun was a little confused by Caixia. She always felt that Caixia seemed to have other ideas, but apart from Aunt Zhao's endorsement, what else could she use to make a move?
After thinking for a while, Caiyun couldn't figure it out. Caiyun simply didn't bother to think about it anymore. She went back to the house and rummaged through the cabinets to find two gifts, which she planned to use as parting gifts for Jia Huan.
After leaving the hut in Qingtang, they bumped into Xiren on the way. Caiyun was about to say hello when he saw Xiren walking past her without looking back.
Caiyun was a little displeased at first, but when she thought that Xiren, as a maid to his wife, could not accompany Baoyu south this time, she must have felt uncomfortable, so she didn't worry about it any more.
Not to mention how Caiyun gives gifts.
However, Xiren walked silently to the vicinity of Qinfang Bridge, then hesitantly stopped.
There are two people who may be able to help her now. One is the third girl, Jia Tanchun. Although she has handed over her duties as housekeeper, who doesn't know that she has already been appointed as a part-time housekeeper for Uncle Jiao?
With this identity alone, not to mention the powerful grandma Li Wan, even Mrs. Wang will give her three points!
The second one is Bao Er’s grandma [Baochai]. The old lady was able to carry out the funeral smoothly a few days ago, thanks to the second grandma who took the initiative to come up with 20,000 taels of silver to help. I owed her such a big favor. If she was willing to ask for it,
, presumably no one will object.
Moreover, she is Bao Er's grandma, and Baoyu is not at home, so it is only natural for her to seek revenge on her.
Both of these places can help you, but whether you are willing to help is another matter.
Second Grandma Bao has a grudge against her, and the third girl may not be willing to meddle in her own business...
Xiren pondered for a moment and decided to start from the nearby area first. If the third girl refused to help, it would not be too late to go hunt for the treasure by the second grandmother himself.
With this in mind, she followed the dike to Qiu Shuangzhai.
When she entered the door, she saw the waiter rushing to the study carrying hot water. She hurriedly called to the waiter and asked with a smile: "What, the third girl is making a fuss again?"
"Isn't it?"
The servant shook his head and said: "I'm still a girl and handed over my errands. I should have a few days of leisure, but who would have thought that I would be even busier."
Xiren smiled again, raised his finger and pointed to the study: "I wonder if it's convenient for me to go in and disturb you?"
Just as the servant was about to answer, Tanchun walked out quickly holding a manuscript. When she saw Xiren in the courtyard, she raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Why, it was the second brother who asked you to come?"
Earlier when she met Xi Ren, she had to address her as sister, but things were different now. Not only others, but also Xi Ren himself felt that her condescending attitude towards her was perfectly normal.
At that moment, he hurriedly said a blessing and said: "Three girls have misunderstood. I have something to ask for."
When Tanchun heard this, he looked her over and over, then walked out and said, "I happen to be looking for Sister Bao, let's talk while walking on the road."
When Xiren heard that he was going to see Second Mistress Bao, he couldn't help but complain secretly. If the third girl was outspoken and told her about her entrustment, Second Mistress Bao wouldn't care even if she knew that she had left her to find Third Miss.
Most likely he won't be happy.
"What's wrong?"
When Tanchun saw that she didn't follow him, he turned around with a suspicious look on his face.
Xiren was afraid that Second Grandma Bao would be unhappy, but he was even more afraid of offending the third girl, so he hurried up and told the news about Caixia, not daring to hide it at all.
Tanchun frowned secretly after hearing this, thinking that the master was too anxious. He had just promised to help solve the travel problem, and he immediately set the departure schedule and spread it to everyone. If he hadn't been able to
It's done...
Alas~
At that time, you will have to use all your strength.
At this time, the attacker on the side saw her frowning after hearing this, and his heart suddenly became cold. He couldn't help but begged again: "Third Miss, look at this..."
Tanchun came back to his senses and asked casually: "If Sister Bao is willing to beg you, this matter will be easy. Why didn't you go and beg her?"
Xiren had obviously thought of this section a long time ago, but at this moment he hurriedly put on a posture of sudden realization, slapped his forehead and said: "Yes, yes, how could I forget this?!"
After saying that, he suddenly showed a bitter look on his face: "It's just that I offended Ying'er a while ago because of the second master's affairs, and I'm afraid that the second grandma also..."
As he said that, he looked at Tanchun expectantly, hoping that she could make peace with him.
Don't want to Tanchun just shook his head and said: "If that's the case, then there will be some trouble - or simply let your mother-in-law redeem you, take off your slave status and the world will be vast, and no one will be able to manipulate you at will anymore."
"this……"
Xiren looked embarrassed.
Originally, the family had collected enough money to redeem her, but she refused to leave Rongguo Mansion until she died, so her brother and sister-in-law used the money to buy land. Now they suddenly said they wanted to leave. Did they have to sell the house in a hurry?
Can't sell the land?
Not to mention that my brother and sister-in-law may not agree. Even if they agree, she will not be able to pass her own test.
So he hesitated and said: "I don't want to bring trouble to my family..."
Tanchun interrupted her and asked: "Do you not want to bring trouble to the family, or do you not want to leave your second brother?"
Xiren paused again, with a look of struggle on his face. After a long while, he caught up again and said, "I just don't want to bring trouble to my family."
Tanchun asked again: "So, as long as you are not sent to Muni Yuan, it will be fine for you to leave my second brother?"
"Yes, it is."
Xiren gritted his teeth and struggled to squeeze out an answer.
Tanchun stopped for the first time, turned around and looked at her carefully and said: "In that case, I have an idea. Now I only have one servant by my side, which is still useful. It will be enough at home, but in the future... if you are willing
Follow me, and I will find my wife to bring you here."
To be continued...
