Jia Baoyu and the others went to visit the garden, and Wang Xifeng stayed in the main house to deal with various affairs with Mrs. Wang.

After being busy for about an hour, Wang Xifeng felt that her back was sore, but seeing that her aunt was still asking about the purchase of the maid's tent curtain, the elders were like this, and she couldn't say that she wanted to rest for a while.

In fact, since last year's miscarriage, Wang Xifeng's health has not been good, but she has a strong temperament and has been holding on, and she has not done anything for half a year, so she felt that some orders in the house did not work, so she said that Jia Lian and Second Sister You could hide it from her for a few months, and she refused to let go no matter what she learned first.

There is also a reason for going back to my parents' house to help. Her uncle is now in a high position and has become the leader of the four major families, of course she has to move around more in such a maiden family, and the closer her relationship with her maiden family, the stronger her position in Jiafu will be.

Second Sister You's death caused a gap between her and Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng could obviously feel Jia Lian's perfunctory impatience with her, except for something to discuss, he usually didn't enter her room much.

She didn't expect that Jia Lian's merry seed actually had a little sincerity towards Second Sister You, she knew it was so, why bother at the beginning, he hugged Qiu Tong and laughed without thinking about the mood of the person next door.

Wang Xifeng scoffed at Jia Lian's affection, but she knew that she still needed his support in Jia's mansion, and the Wang family was the reason why Jia Lian had to bow her head.

So even though she was unwell, she came here to help.

Wang Xifeng sat next to him to rest for a while by drinking tea and eating snacks, and then followed Mrs. Wang to deal with the review and distribution of various expenses.

A housekeeper's daughter-in-law came to report, "Get the license to get the money, and prepare the wages for the gardeners outside." ”

A maid next to him took the post and read: "Several pots of peonies, several pots of peonies...... and eight hundred and sixty taels of silver. ”

Wang Xifeng is clear about the prices of all kinds of flowers outside, eight hundred and sixty taels, how many flowers do you get? I'm afraid I don't have to change the flowers and plants of the entire Wang family.

At the beginning, she gave all the flowers and plants in the Grand View Garden to Jia Yun, but it only cost two hundred taels, and she still defaulted to his profit. Why do you have to exchange so many flowers for your family, isn't this person in charge of things filling his own pockets?

But Mrs. Wang didn't doubt it at all when she heard it, and very neatly asked people to give her a list of cards and let her go to get the silver.

She has already decided, Wang Xifeng, as a foreign daughter, of course it is impossible to refute that this account is wrong, she knows her aunt's methods, it is impossible to be fooled so simply, there must be something inside.

Wang Xifeng only suppressed this doubt in his heart.

Calculate that Mrs. Wang spent thousands of taels of silver without blinking an eye this morning, Wang Xifeng's heart couldn't help but fluctuate, a few years ago she was also like this mouth was a few hundred taels out, but now what she wants to do, first consider whether she has enough silver, and if it is not enough, she has to take something to pawn.

Why is she living so badly.

Wang Xifeng was in a complicated mood, but she didn't plan to show it in front of her mother's family, she continued to reconcile as if nothing happened.

They left the flower hall at noon, took the time to have dinner with Jia Baoyu and a few others, and went back to the flower hall after a short rest.

Jia Baoyu and they are not so tired, after visiting the garden and going to the lake, although the Wang family has no provincial relatives, the garden is no worse than the Grand View Garden, and the embroidery building of several girls is located in the middle.

Since they are here, they naturally want to invite them in to have a look, Jia Baoyu is not good to follow at this time, and he goes back to the front alone unhappily.

Jiang Yan really wants to see the difference between the two girls, the Jia family is free-range, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang don't care much about these concubines, I don't know how the Wang family is. But Jia Baoyu wanted to leave, and they couldn't stay, so they could only follow him away.

The accompanying mother-in-law proposed: "Our uncle should come back from outside, is the second master going to find him?" ”

Jia Baoyu didn't see Wang Ren in the morning, I heard that he was going out for something, but Jia Baoyu had a general friendship with him, he and Xue Pan were more like-minded, and there was no regret if he didn't see Jia Baoyu.

But he is also bored by himself now, this woman has mentioned it, and he is going to meet him according to the ceremony. He asked people to lead the way to Wang Ren.

Jia Baoyu went to the front yard, and Jiang Yan and the others naturally couldn't follow anymore, so they were left alone again.

Musk Yue looked left and right, and said, "Let's not go back to the front, just find a pavilion to rest and wait, and the girls will go out together when they come out." I also happened to enjoy the scenery here, I think this garden is different from the Grand View Garden of our house, more comfortable and open. ”

The maid who guided them next to her said: "Girl has good eyesight, the garden in our house was newly built two years ago, and it is said that the Zheng family invited the same group of craftsmen, and it is not a group of people who are commonly used in Beijing." ”

"The Zheng family? Which Zheng family? ”

The maid smiled and said, "Which other Zheng family?" It is the brother-in-law's house of the queen's mother, and their garden is famous in the whole capital. At first, many people wanted to learn from his family, but those craftsmen were specially found from other places, and later our family got those craftsmen. ”

Musk Yue and the others are just some household chores every day in the house, and they don't care about what is going on outside, and they don't care when they hear her say this.

Jiang Yan didn't expect that the relationship between the Wang family and the prince's side was so good, even the craftsmen in the garden could borrow it, wasn't he the emperor's person? Even the prince can't get too close, right? However, the emperor should be quite satisfied with the crown prince now, after all, there is still a prince and the king of Yizhong County.

She said very cheerfully: "I didn't expect there to be this one in it, and sure enough, Lord Wang has face." ”

Hearing her words, the maid smiled more affectionately, "I'm just a maid, where do I know so much." I listened to what others said, and I don't know if that's the case.

Jiang Yan said a few more polite words before sending the person away

As soon as the person left, Musk Yue said angrily: "What are you doing to her politely?" What's going on with this Wang family? As soon as I have the opportunity, I will say how good their family is, and our garden has also received Niangniang! Does she have a comparison? ”，

Jiang Yan has no sense of belonging to Jiafu, and she doesn't feel any good luck, Jiafu is gradually losing, and the rise of the Wang family is an indisputable fact, and people are not allowed to say a word.

There was a little unpleasantness here, but the others got along well, and by the time they left in the afternoon, the two girls had been sent to the door of the instrument.

In the afternoon, there were fewer pedestrians on the streets, and there were more and more ragged beggars.

They cowered and hid in the corners of the streets, watching out for possible begging as they watched out for the patrolling officials
