Jia Qiang's Ordinary Life

In the evening, Jia Qiang came back from the Imperial Academy and asked, "Xuan'er, how was the party?"

Yuan Zixuan frowned: "Everything else is good, but Second Uncle Bao, who is really not taboo. There is also that Xue Baochai, who was really raised by a businessman. Everything can be related to money, and his eyes are always on the bracelet. and earrings, as if you have never seen it before!"

Jia Qiang laughed: "Don't worry about the Xue family, Aunt Lin is still Aunt Min's son, and Aunt Yun is also the grandnephew of the old lady, so the Xue family is not a serious relative, but the Wang family's in-laws, and it has nothing to do with us. , do the same next time, just stab, we don’t need to give the Xue family’s face!”

Yuan Zixuan's head is also aggrieved. What kind of thing is the Xue family? When they were in the south of the Yangtze River, even those big salt merchants had to be respectful to the Yuan family. Xianbai, if he didn't think that Xue's family is relatives, he would have wished to spit in the past.Hmph, listen now, the Xue family is not considered a serious relative, so naturally don't save face.

In Xiaoxiang Hall, Shi Xiangyun and Lin Daiyu hadn't fallen asleep yet, they were sitting in the bedroom talking, Shi Xiangyun complained: "Sister Jinbao is so unreasonable, although Qiang's daughter-in-law is a junior, she is also a young lady of a scholarly family, why is she always so weird?" If so, I feel that Qiang'er and his daughter-in-law will be angry!"

Lin Daiyu sighed: "What are you doing? We are no better than the Xue family. Although the Xue family also lives in Rongguo Mansion, Sister Bao has a mother and an elder brother. Even if she is not good enough, she has people who support her. But what do we have? What? Considered to be elders, even if they are not very polite, Qiang’er’s daughter-in-law is no good!”

Shi Xiangyun showed envy in his eyes: "Come on, Qiang'er's daughter-in-law is really lucky. It seems that her parents are not here. Fortunately, she has a good grandfather and is a friend of Teacher Qiang'er. The two families will get married. Qiang'er is a little girl. Jinshi at an early age, if he is a Hanlin, he will definitely be a close minister in the future. Even if his family property is not as rich as the Rongguo Mansion, he can always seal his wife and son. I don’t know what will happen in the future. Thinking about those two uncles and aunts, I still don’t know how to beat them. What's the idea!"

Lin Daiyu is silent, so why not?Although the grandmother intends to marry Baoyu, but the second aunt refuses to let go, so what can I do!Now I have no natal family to rely on, no matter how much my grandmother loves me, I can't get past Baoyu, and now there are gossips in the garden, what about my future?She lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment, then finally said: "Forget it, these things are beyond our boudoirs' thinking, and it's not too early, let's rest!"

On the other side, Jia Lian came back from the outside, looked at Wang Xifeng who had finished her work and was going to sleep, and asked with a smile, "Daughter-in-law Qiang is here today? How do you look?"

"It's not easy to get along with!" Wang Xifeng pressed the center of his brows wearily, "Master Yuan has been out for many years, and it seems that he has accumulated a lot of furniture. Moreover, Brother Qiang's daughter-in-law is also very favored at home, otherwise, there is no one. There are so many good dowry! Look at that bearing, even a young lady from a Duke's family is nothing more than that!"

Jia Lian came over and said, "Really? I thought Mr. Yuan was some kind of clean and honest person, but it seems that he is nothing more than that!"

Wang Xifeng put down her hands, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "Well, girl Baochai is making a joke today, she thinks who she is, and she actually plays Qiao in front of Qiang's daughter-in-law, boasting of her knowledge, no I know, take a look, the eyeballs of that precious girl are always looking at Qiang’s daughter-in-law’s wrist and ears, as if she’s never seen anything good! I thought others couldn’t see it!”

"Hmph, if it wasn't for Aunt Xue's wife's sister, how could she have entered our house!" Jia Lian was also disdainful. Didn't you run errands? Looking at Aunt Xue's appearance, I think it's weird for Xue Da fool to suffer in prison, which is really unreasonable! I don't know what the second wife thinks. , if there is such a brother-in-law, what good will Baoyu get in the future, can he help that fool Xue clean up the first and last?"

"The madam is going to make things difficult for the old lady!" Wang Xifeng snorted, "But let's not get involved, I just feel sorry for Sister Lin! And that treasure girl is also ignorant of current affairs. Who do you think she is? A ten-year-old, who is always called Feng girl in front of everyone, is really uneducated, and she can still handle it, thinking she is some kind of young lady!"

"Poor, it's better to be pitiful!" Jia Lian took off his clothes and burrowed directly into the quilt, "The first two days, that eunuch Xia came to beat the autumn wind again, and suddenly he had to walk 800 taels. Could it be that money is not money in the palace! It's a noble concubine, but she still has to be careful to curry favor with some eunuchs, it's embarrassing!"

Wang Xifeng also sighed straight forward: "Isn't it? It used to be a private house owned by an old lady, but now it's all taken from the public account! It's a bottomless pit, and it can't be filled! Several younger sisters in the Grand View Garden have added maids, and the garden The theater troupe in the village, all kinds of flowers and plants, don’t spend money! The money brought back from the south has long been used up, and now, they have to pawn their own dowry. The first two pawned a necklace with a ruby , that collar is worth at least 500 taels, but it is only worth 300 taels when delivered to the pawnshop, and that is because it is a regular customer! Alas, if it is not for the hope of redeeming it in my heart, I will simply pawn it, and there are more Seven to eighty taels!"

"Who is always competitive and wants to be a housekeeper?" Jia Lian said a little angrily, "My wife has a good idea, and she will be a Bodhisattva in the back, pretending to be a good person, so she will offend others outside and keep her private house inside." ! Just a fool!"

"What can we do?" Wang Xifeng curled her lips, "The job of the housekeeper is a burning iron, and no one will accept it! Don't look at the old ladies and wives all turning towards us, as long as you dare to pick things up now, Tomorrow, the two of us will be forced to pack up and go back to the big room!"

Jia Lian was also helpless: "Forget it, let's figure out a way when the time comes! We are not some money-losing boys, and we can subsidize our private houses to everyone casually! Well, in two days, we will find a doctor to take good care of us." Well, as long as you are pregnant, even if you are not a brother, you have a reason to let it go!"

Wang Xifeng looked at him viciously: "After all, it's just that you hate having children, right?"

"Why are you angry again!" Jia Lian was almost speechless, "What a tigress, she has a bad temper, it's for the best! Think about it! Lord, if there is no brother, the entire Rongguo Mansion will fall on Baoyu's head, no matter how bad it is, it will also fall on Jialan's head. It's not our husband and wife's turn to let others touch, but, Anyway, I have to give birth to a baby! As it is, quickly find a doctor to take care of my aunt, and if it’s not good enough, go to the imperial doctor, I don’t believe it, Jia Lian will never have a son!”
