Madam Xing left silently.
The old lady looked at the door and smiled at Sister Feng."You'll know after you've been with this mother-in-law for a long time.”
"If you feel a little wronged, just tell the old lady and me. Don't be an outsider," Madam Wang instructed.”
Sister Feng blinked her eyes. She still didn't understand that they didn't treat her mother-in-law as a proper wife. She knew what would happen in the future. "Old Lady, Feng 'er will remember what Lady said.”
Jia Lian had no intention of defending Madam Xing. As the saying goes, a pitiful person must have a pitiful aspect. Even if she was greedy or mean, Jia Lian did not mind. It had nothing to do with him.
After all, she was only Jia She's housewife and was born into a small family. Her status was low, so it was normal for her to be unpopular in this wealthy family. But she shouldn't show off her methods and try to be ruthless, becoming an abominable and awkward person.
However, compared to Madam Xing, who had a clear expression of what she wanted to do, Jia Lian was even more unwilling to get along with the cold and feminine Madam Wang. Just now, she did not say much, but every word hit the nail on the head, making the old lady and Madam Xing unconsciously follow her thoughts.
This was what a powerful person was!
"Feng 'er, we should go to the East Road Courtyard. Father is still waiting!”Jia Lian held Phoenix Sister's hand and naturally interlocked their fingers.
Sister Phoenix blushed and didn't dare to look at the old lady and Madam Wang. She said softly,"I know. Let go of me first!"
Jia Lian pretended not to hear him and leaned even closer.
Madam Wang smiled." You two are so loving, yet there's still an old woman gossiping over there. It's obvious that it's time to take care of it."”
The Old Lady had always been kind." In the future, I'll leave this to Little Feng. You can rest in peace."”This was her last reminder to Madam Wang.
Madam Wang counted the beads in her hand and lowered her head." That's right. I'll be much more relaxed in the future."
I've also taken off my burden and wholeheartedly served Old Lady. It's good to smile with you.”
The old lady nodded and smiled." I have Baoyu here, and now I have Little Feng. She's also a troublemaker!" If you're not afraid of being noisy, we'll call Nanny Lai to draw the cards together.”
Madam Wang covered her mouth and laughed." I'm just afraid that Old Lady will find your wife's playing cards too slow!”
The old lady did not speak, but a few little girls 'screams came from the green gauze cabinet. The old lady got off the bed and shouted as she walked,"Baoyu! Baoyu!"
Yuanyang hurriedly supported her." Old Madam, slow down!”
Madam Wang's expression also changed at this moment, and they turned into the green gauze cabinet together.
Sister Feng also wanted to follow, but was grabbed back by Jia Lian." Why are you joining in the fun?”
Sister Feng stood on her tiptoes and tried to look through the boxes in the green gauze cupboard." Maybe something happened inside!"”
Jia Lian didn't even think about it,"What else could it be?" There was an 80% chance that Baoyu had snatched the girls 'rouge and powder, or that he was clinging to them to find candy to eat! That's all he has!"
Sister Phoenix burst into laughter and said with a red face,"If Second Master's words were to be known by Old Madam and Old Madam, they won't forgive you!”
Coincidentally, a little girl in her teens ran out of the green cabinet. She had a delicate appearance and two braids. She was wearing a light purple vest and was talking to herself,"Second Master Bao is really too much. He only wants to mess with us! It's alright…"
"Yingge, go get water for Baoyu to wash!”Madam Wang called out.
The girl quickly responded and went out in a hurry.
"What did I just say?" Jia Lian laughed.”
"How old is Baoyu?" she spat. You learned from him?"
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked past the main hall of Rongxi Hall.
She turned her head to look at the hall. When she raised her head, she saw a large golden plaque with nine dragons. On the plaque were three large words, Rongxi Hall."On a certain day, a letter was given to the Duke of Rong, Jia Yuan, and there were tens of thousands of treasures.
On the big red sandalwood carved dragon table, there was a three-foot-tall green ancient bronze tripod, hanging with a big painting of ink dragon waiting to leak. On one side was a golden Yi, and on the other side was a sea of glass.
There were sixteen nanmu chairs on the ground and a couplet. It was an ebony couplet with silver characters.
Jia Lian pulled her away, and Sister Feng asked in confusion,"There has always been a question. Since the First Master inherited the title of nobility, why did he go to live in the east courtyard and give the main hall to the Second Master? I'm afraid we're the only ones in the Divine Capital!”
Jia Lian recalled a long period of history from the depths of his memory." I've lived in East Road Courtyard since I could remember. At that time, my mother was still around, so she was naturally the housekeeper. After that, she died and Second Mistress entered the house. Old Mistress naturally wanted Second Mistress to take over as housekeeper. When Eldest Mistress came again, how could Chuchu compare to Second Mistress? On the surface, it was said that Second Elder Wen lived with Old Lady, but everyone understood Old Lady's thoughts. Especially when there was a living treasure, Baoyu, it was even more precious. How could Old Master not be angry about this?”
The two of them entered the East Road Courtyard.
This courtyard was originally a modified version of the old garden of the Rong Mansion. It had rockery and strange stones, flowers, trees, grass, and vines. It was quite exquisite and impressive.
In the main room, Jia She was already sitting on the top seat. Lady Xing stood beside him and took a small snuff bottle from the servant girl. She removed the lid and took out a small bit of dried green bean with a spoon. She carefully poured it into the area between the thumb and index finger of Jia She's right hand. Jia She moved closer and took a light breath, smelling the air through his nose.
He closed his eyes for a while before exclaiming,"As expected of a high-grade cigarette. It's fragrant and sweet. It's great for refreshing the mind and dispelling filth! Xing Dequan is really thoughtful."
Madam Xing smiled." According to my brother, this is a tribute from overseas. It's only a small bottle, but it's worth a lot of gold!"”
"What gold and silver?" Jia She asked unhappily. As long as I like it, I don't care how much it costs. I have to get it!”He took the snuff bottle and played with it.
