Chapter 37 Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian, Bao Dai
Wang Xifeng saw Jia Lian walk in with a tired face, and asked with a smile: "It's strange today, I haven't seen you so popular in the past, the old lady is looking for you, the eldest lady is looking for you, and even the second wife has asked people to pass the word several times to let you go, what happened in the house?" ”
"What can there be, it's not to send Sister Lin back to Yangzhou!" Jia Lian said angrily.
"This is even more strange, on weekdays, our master and second wife don't care about Sister Lin, why are they leaving, they asked!" Wang Xifeng said strangely.
She also heard the rumors in the house today, although sending Daiyu back to Yangzhou at this time would hinder the reputation of the Jia family, but she couldn't let the Jia family suffer because of a daughter from a foreign family.
"It's not for the Lin family's wealth!" Jia Lian said listlessly.
"Some time ago, Uncle Lin was impeached in Beijing, and I heard that Uncle Lin was planted this time, even if he didn't raid his house and be exiled, he would have to be dismissed and investigated!"
"A few days ago, a message came from the south, saying that Uncle Lin's body was also broken!"
"Now Uncle Lin doesn't know what the situation is, the old lady, our lord and the second wife, they are thinking about planning the Lin family's property."
Wang Xifeng thought that he was just sending Daiyu back to Yangzhou, but now when he heard that there was such a good thing, he immediately became interested and asked, "What did the old lady say?" ”
"The old lady didn't say anything clearly, but just told me that she must take care of Sister Lin, and then take Sister Lin back when something happens in Yangzhou."
"But the meaning of the old lady's words is to let me hide from Sister Lin and get the property of the Lin family to the Zhen family first."
Wang Xifeng was secretly happy in his heart, since the old lady supported this matter, he could also take the opportunity to make some benefits, so he asked: "What does our master mean?" ”
Jia Lian smiled helplessly: "Hehe, our master told me not to make a mistake, my elbow can't be turned out, if I really get back the Lin family's silver this time, whoever is short can't shorten his share." ”
Wang Xifeng smiled, the master's reaction was just as he expected, he didn't care about money when he encountered it, but as a daughter-in-law, he couldn't blame his father-in-law at will.
immediately asked about Mrs. Wang's attitude, if you want to say who in the house is the least to see Sister Lin, it is her aunt who is the most obvious.
Jia Lian was a little displeased and said: "What the second wife said is very good, saying that Aunt Lin's family, now there is Miss Lin left, and in the future, all this money will be Miss Lin's dowry, let's collect it for Miss Lin first, and then take it out when Miss Lin gets married." ”
"Now that Uncle Lin is still here, the second wife said such a thing, which is chilling to listen to!"
Wang Xifeng is used to it, although her aunt looks kind and kind, she is actually a ruthless person.
Jia Lian sighed and continued: "After the second wife asked me to go to Jiangnan, I will first contact the Zhen family and discuss with the Zhen family!" ”
"Since the Zhen family is involved, isn't this just a matter of catching the king in the jar, and nine out of ten are stable!" Wang Xifeng said with a smile, now that the house is short of money, if he can have this floating wealth, his housekeeper can be much easier.
"How can it be as light as you say, this matter is said to be a thousand and ten thousand, it depends on what Uncle Lin means." Jia Lian sighed.
Then he complained: "They are all good people in the back, so let me be a villain alone, and I don't know what Uncle Lin thinks of me at that time?" ”
If he simply sent Daiyu back to Yangzhou, he would be willing to go, but if he wanted to unite with the Zhen family and plan the Lin family's property, he would be a little repulsed, although he also had some thoughts about the Lin family's property, but he really couldn't save face and personally participated in it.
Wang Xifeng didn't care, don't care what means, the most important thing is to get benefits, if Lin Ruhai goes, the Lin family's property will be cheaper for others, it is better to be collected by the Jia family, anyway, Daiyu will live in the Jia family in the future.
However, she felt funny about her aunt's attitude, she obviously wanted the Lin family's property, but she still had to pretend to be good for Daiyu.
What else did she say about collecting the dowry for Daiyu, this money is in her hands, it's strange that she can take it out.
So he joked: "It's not that the second wife has changed her mind and wants Baoyu to marry Sister Lin, and plans to accept Sister Lin's dowry in advance!" ”
Jia Lian didn't hear the ridicule in Wang Xifeng's words, shook his head and said: "If you want to say that Baoyu married Sister Lin before, it's nothing, but now, it's unlikely!" ”
"No matter what happens to Uncle Lin in the end, Sister Lin will be implicated!"
Wang Xifeng heard Jia Lian's emotion, and laughed out loud: "I see that you are smoking from the rice pot, and you are confused!" ”
"What, can the old lady still let Baoyu marry Sister Lin?" Jia Lian asked inexplicably.
"It's not that the old lady, but the second wife, it's just that there is no such thing as Uncle Lin, and it is difficult for Sister Lin to marry Baoyu!"
"Nonsense, how do you know that the second wife doesn't want Baoyu to marry Sister Lin?" In the past, the old lady wanted to kiss and match, and he also knew about Baoyu and Sister Lin, but now listening to Sister Feng'er's meaning, it seems that the second wife is not very willing.
"As long as you are not blind in this house, you can see it, but you still can't understand it."
Seeing that Jia Lian didn't believe it, Wang Xifeng continued: "Don't believe it, your father's mind is used outside, and we don't care about the affairs of our house at all, if the second wife is willing to let Baoyu marry Sister Lin, she still needs to let my aunt take Sister Xue to live in our mansion!" ”
Jia Lian was despised by his daughter-in-law, and he couldn't get over his face, so he immediately retorted: "Don't say it, I heard Xue Da Fool say that his sister-in-law is waiting to be selected in Beijing, what does it have to do with Baoyu!" ”
"Hehe, to be chosen, you believe their words, Sister Lin and Sister Xue live in our house with their front and back feet, if you want to say that the second wife didn't fight Sister Xue and Sister Lin in the ring, I picked out my eyes."
Wang Xifeng even suspected that the Lin family that was rumored in the house today was nine times out of ten that her aunt let her out.
"As far as you can see clearly, what is the identity of this Xue family, and it can be worthy of our family's family!" Jia Lian said disdainfully, not to mention the identity of the Xue family's businessman, he was not worthy of the Guogong family of Jiafu at all.
Just at Xue Da Fool, the old lady will not let Xue Baochai enter the door, Xue Da Fool killed someone in Jinling, and the old lady can't let Baoyu have such a bastard uncle.
He even suspected that the Xue family was still staying at the Jia family in order to avoid trouble.
So he said: "The old lady loves Baoyu so much, she can't wait to give Baoyu the best for everything, I don't believe it, she can let Baoyu marry a merchant's daughter!" ”
Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "I really let you say it, the old lady really doesn't want Baoyu to marry Sister Xue, you don't see that the old lady is pressing Sister Xue in everything!" ”
Jia Lian usually doesn't wander around the back house, and he doesn't know these things in the back house, but he doesn't have a good impression of the Xue family, so he said: "What do you say this Xue family is thinking, they obviously have their own house in the capital, but they have lived in our house for four or five years, do they still want to stay in our house all the time?" ”
Although Aunt Xue is her aunt, Wang Xifeng doesn't have much affection for the Xue family, and said: "Who knows, I don't think the Xue family has any intention of moving out, I guess it's the second wife, I want Sister Xue and Baoyu to be close!" ”
Jia Lian said disdainfully: "Don't say that the old lady can't pass that level, even the second master won't agree!" ”
"A few months ago, I heard Brother Qiang and a few of them say that Xue Da Fool made our clan learn from him, and the second master was dissatisfied with Xue Da Fool at that time, but he didn't teach him a lesson because of his relatives' face!"
Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "You haven't heard that there are any gold and jade everywhere in the mansion a year ago, in my opinion, this matter is not accurate, but I look at Sister Lin, it is more suitable than Sister Xue!" ”
"Don't look at everyone praising the Xue family's sister, if you want me to say that this Sister Xue is far worse than Sister Lin, although Sister Lin is a little petty, she treats people sincerely, you are good to her, she is also good to you."
"Sister Xue's actions are full of hypocrisy, making people unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood, if Baoyu really marries her into the mansion, I'm afraid our mansion will be lively in the future."
