Red Mansion and Crimson Pearl

The New Year is over, the festival is over, and the house has been cleaned up.

Jia Zhen and Youshi both felt back pain and were in desperate need of evacuation.

Yu Shi then complained: "Look at your third sister, she can help the second wife with the household, and even when Feng girl is sick, the house is still in order.

"Fourth sister is so aloof. She only wants to be a rich girl and refuses to learn housework. What will she do when she gets married in the future?"

Jia Zhen was suddenly moved and said with a smile, "She is still young. And she is over there, we can't control her.

"But didn't your mother and sisters come to help in previous years? Why didn't you let them come this year?

"Now that the big New Year's activities are over, it's just a matter of trivial matters. You might as well call them over. They can enjoy a few days of happiness, and you can relax for a few days."

Yu's face froze for a moment, and she forced a smile, "That's a good idea. I'll send someone to pick her up right away!"

The more he thought about it, the more unhappy he became. He couldn't help but say, "But the house is full of stuff now, why not let them live in Tianxiang Tower!"

Jia Zhen's face suddenly darkened.

Tianxiang Tower is a taboo in Ningguo Mansion and is also Jia Zhen’s most unspeakable pain.

Hearing what Youshi said, Jia Zhen naturally understood what she meant. He threw the tea bowl on the table coldly and snorted, "Since there is no place, just buy them a yard outside!"

After saying that, he got up and left!

Yu was so angry that she covered her face and cried.

Originally thought to be just words spoken in anger, who knew that Jia Zhen actually bought a courtyard for the mother and daughter of the You family in Xiaohuazhi Lane and assigned servants to serve them.

Yu-shi immediately became ill from anger.

When Wang Xifeng went to visit her, the two sisters-in-law drove everyone else out and talked in private.

You Shi cried so hard that she couldn't even lift her head. "I have endured all these years, but why can't he restrain himself a bit? You are absolutely right. I just made the first suggestion, and he can't wait any longer!"

"My dear sister-in-law, Brother Zhen is really too ridiculous. If this gets out, not only will his face be ruined, but even the Rong and Ning mansions, who will be able to stand up straight?"

Wang Xifeng looked worried, "Why don't you marry off the two sisters earlier?"

Youshi hesitated for a moment, then burst into tears again. No matter how Wang Xifeng persuaded her, she remained silent. Wang Xifeng had no choice but to say goodbye: "My dear sister-in-law, everything else is fake. You must take care of yourself."

Youshi nodded with a heavy heart and agreed, and asked someone to send Wang Xifeng away.

The confidant in the room couldn't help but whisper to her: "Second Madam is right! If you hire two girls, won't the master have no other ideas?"

"What do you know?" Yu Shi leaned on the pillow absentmindedly, muttering in a low voice, "When they were not around, he touched Qin Shi...

"If I insist on hiring them both, I don't know who he will touch. What if it's someone I can't afford to offend? Wouldn't the family be turned upside down?

"At least the two of them, my master and I can still control them... Let him be..."

The maid thought about it, sighed, and muttered in a low voice: "The other day I saw that the way the master looked at Mrs. Hu was not right..."

It was done so quickly that by the 20th of the first lunar month, the new courtyard in Xiaohuazhi Lane was decorated, and Old Lady You, Second Sister You, and Third Sister You happily moved in.

Jia Zhen did not leave that night and stayed here.

When Youshi heard this, her illness became even more serious.

The news spread quickly, and even Jia Lian heard about it and discussed it with Wang Xifeng in secret. Wang Xifeng sneered, "You're courting death!"

As the evening approached, Jia Lian could no longer bear the urge to go to Xiaohuazhi Lane. Wang Xifeng saw through his intentions at a glance and told him with a smile:

"If you go and can't come back, don't blame me. Now because of Sister Lin, the emperor will come to visit our family from time to time. How do you know that our family has no enemies and will not be impeached?"

Jia Lian thought for a while, then reluctantly went to bed.

That night, Wang Xifeng, who was already angry, gave Jia Lian a severe beating, so that he had to hold his waist wherever he went the next day.

On the 23rd day of the first lunar month, Jia Zhen went to Xiaohuazhi Lane again.

Under such circumstances, he would naturally stay here at night. But since Third Sister You came to Xiaohuazhi Lane, she had not seen her eldest sister Youshi come here; she knew that Jia Zhen might have openly turned against Youshi and deliberately used her and her second sister to wantonly abuse her.

Third Sister You was getting angry, with a half-smile on her face: "Brother-in-law, I don't want to think about what will happen to us two sisters in the future. It's just that we won't die well anyway!

"But brother-in-law, you are too blatant. Second sister's marriage has not been cancelled yet, and you tease her like this. What will we do if the Zhang family comes tomorrow?"

Jia Zhen was already drunk, and he reached out his hand with a lustful look to touch the green bodice under You Sanjie's red coat, and laughed, "It's just a cancellation of the engagement. What's the big deal?

"I have already inquired about it. His family is so poor that they have to beg for food. I bid him 20 taels of silver. Am I afraid he won't acknowledge it?

"the same as you……"

Third Sister You dodged to the side and sneered, "I was a young girl back then, and was coaxed into being a lowly girl by my brother-in-law's sweet words, until now.

"But you have concubines in your house, and my sister is not someone who cannot tolerate others. At worst, you can take us sisters as concubines.

"But you want to look good on the outside, and you won't give us any status. You can't even play the gong you stole, but you use us sisters as prostitutes for fun!

"Don't worry, your family has ancestors and fathers. I, Third Aunt You, would like to meet them and ask them how they teach their children and grandchildren! How can you humiliate your wife and imprison the common people like this!"

Sister You suddenly turned hostile. Jia Zhen was stunned for a moment, then he fiercely grasped Sister You's throat and gritted his teeth, saying:

"Bitch! You don't even want to be treated with respect! Without me, your family would have starved to death all these years! Now, the golden slaves, silver maids, silks, satins, fat chickens and big ducks have actually nurtured your greed!

"Do you think I really don't dare to kill anyone?!"

Third Sister You was strangled by him and couldn't breathe. Second Sister You was so scared that her soul was about to fly away. She hurriedly came up and cried to pry Jia Zhen's hand away: "Brother-in-law, don't be angry. Third Sister You is just angry that you didn't get enough this year..."

Snapped!

Jia Zhen slapped You Erjie hard in the face, his face grim: "Do you think I'm a fool? I can tell that she speaks from the heart! These two bitches really can't be kept alive!"

Third Sister You took the opportunity to break free from his hand, supported Second Sister You first, and looked at Jia Zhen coldly: "We are registered commoners, and we are your wife's sisters, not your slaves!

"Even if you want to kill us, you should have made some plans first, right? Unfortunately, it's too late!"

With a sneer, he suddenly rushed over and pushed open the rear window!

Jia Zhen was confused and was in a daze when he saw several big men jumping in through the back window. Two of them stepped forward and grabbed Jia Zhen's arms:

"Master Zhen, a hereditary third-rank noble general! He actually raped a woman and humiliated her husband! What a fresh and exciting story!

"I'll strip you naked and walk you around Rongning Street. I wonder if someone will be happy to buy my evidence and send you to the emperor?!"

Jia Zhen was furious, gritting his teeth and looking at You Sanjie, his eyes almost spitting fire: "Stupid woman!"

Third Sister You sneered and spat fiercely on Jia Zhen's face: "I'm stupid? It's just a matter of dying together. Do you think I'm afraid of death!?"
