Whose Evil in the Red Chamber

As soon as the woman finished speaking, she heard rustling noises inside, then the girl Qingluan who had just led the way came out with a smile and led the four children in.

From the blacksmith's shop, Jing Xuan knew that she had heard the voice of this lady. As for her true face in Lushan, it was the first time she had seen her. Since she was the youngest now, Jing Xuan looked at this lady openly. carefully.

This Mrs. Hou Ye looks like a typical Jiangnan beauty, her whole body is elegant yet elegant, elegant and magnificent. At this time, there is a faint sadness that cannot be concealed between the smiling brows, probably because of Hou Ye's appearance. Grandpa's lingering sick body.

The burning censer in the room exudes a faint fragrance, and the furnishings are also unique. Jingxuan took all of this into his eyes. Since he can be very affectionate with such a woman, the Marquis of Xing'an, who is rumored to be "crazy and irritable" I'm afraid it's not the same.

While Jing Xuan was looking around calmly, Madam's eyes also fell on Jing Xuan, beating Hou Ye who caught Wei Zhen in the blacksmith's shop, and the butler had already asked about it from the shopkeeper of the silk and satin village who brought them there. Knowing the names and identities of these children, the name of Lin Jingxuan, the concubine of the Lin family, is familiar to Mrs. Hou Ye.

Although both Xing'an Hou's Mansion and Lin's Mansion are famous families with their ancestral home in Gusu City, the Wang family of Xing'an Hou was born as a military general, and the Lin family is a scholarly family, and their contacts are mediocre. Regarding the existence of Lin Jingxuan, Mrs. Hou is more, but it is In my impression, she was the most wanton daughter of Princess Hengyang in the capital at that time.

Things are changing now, but the proud daughter of the heavens back then has become a concubine that the Lin family despised, and even the children she gave birth were not ranked in the order. Mrs. Hou thought of this, and now she is so good. Lin Jingxuan, who had beautiful phoenix eyes even though her eyebrows were as big, sighed unconsciously in her heart.

She and Jia Min are just acquaintances, but they are always compared by others consciously or unconsciously. They are both daughters-in-law of a famous family in Gusu. It is also a rare example of a couple who are in harmony with each other. There is an embarrassing bastard in Lin's mansion, but she has nothing to do so far.

When thinking of the name Lin Jingxuan in the past, sometimes she would have some inexplicable feelings in her heart, as if the existence of this concubine of the Lin family advertised that she was happier than Jia Min, but looking at that beautiful child carved in jade today, she couldn't help it. She couldn't help but think that if she could have such a son, no matter whether he was a concubine or concubine, it would be better than now.

However, according to the steward's report, these four children came from the countryside together with that Mr. Wu, why didn't Lin Jingxuan stay in Lin's mansion properly, but went to the countryside?

This question flashed in my heart, but Madam knew that it was not appropriate to ask a little doll these words, so she turned her eyes to the other three people. Looking over, she was facing Wang Qi's equally surprised and curious eyes.

In fact, Wang Qi's eyes were too straightforward but clean and clear, and Madam didn't feel annoyed. Wang Qi saw that he was caught looking at Madam, and seeing the Madam's gentle eyes looking over, Wang Qi was unprecedented. Feeling a little embarrassed, she murmured and explained: "I just thought that Miss Qingluan was the most beautiful person I've ever seen. After seeing Madam, I realized what Mr. said was someone other than someone else."

If it were someone else, I'm afraid he would be called "glib", but although Wang Qi's appearance is not as simple as Wei Zhen's honesty, Zhang Wenzhi's elegance, and Jing Xuan's handsomeness, his eyes are too clean , and the tone was immature and true, these words dissipated the sorrow in the lady's eyes.

"It's really a child, come on, you all sit down and talk, Qingluan, go and get some fruit for the children." The lady smiled, glanced at Zhang Wenzhi who had kept his head down and his ears were obviously red, and finally took the Appreciative eyes fell on Wei Zhen.

She heard everything that happened in the blacksmith's shop just now, and Madam has a good impression of Wei Zhen. Now she looks at Wei Zhen carefully, but she feels more and more happy.

At first sight of Wei Zhen, I thought he was a simple and honest child, but after careful examination, it was not difficult to find that the child's facial features were full of heroism, especially the eyes, if they were more imposing, they would be more compelling. people.

Such a child, if he grows up to a weak crown, he doesn't know how handsome and masculine he will be. He is indeed the one chosen by his husband. The more the wife looks at it, the more satisfied she is, and she feels happy for her husband from the bottom of her heart, but when she thinks that her husband is exhausted body, those feelings of joy instantly turned into bitterness.

After carefully asking Wei Zhen about her childhood experience, the lady sighed while listening, and then talked to a few children, most of which were Wang Qi's reply, and Jing Xuan listened with a smile on the side, Zhang Wenzhi still hadn't recovered from his embarrassment. When he came back to his senses, he just lowered his head.In this way, when someone came to inquire from the front, the lady reluctantly let the children go.

After returning to the front hall, the Marquis of Xing'an seemed to be in better spirits than just now, and he said to Wu Xi: "In the past, those doctors' bitter concoction had no effect even after drinking it. Going on, it makes me feel very useful, it really is extraordinary."

Wu Xi, however, looked rather regretful: "If Master Hou's illness has been two years in the morning, I can give it a try. Maybe there is still hope of recovery, but it's a pity."

"Life and death are fate, I have already taken it lightly." Marquis Xing'an just smiled wryly.

Wang She was listening on the side, but also felt that the temper of this Lord Hou was a lot exaggerated by the rumors outside. Based on what he saw today, this Lord Hou was really not a domineering and unreasonable person.

Just as Wang She was thinking, he saw Marquis Xing'an's eyes on him, which startled Wang She, and immediately became cautious again.Although he has been the shopkeeper of this branch shop in these years, although he has seen a lot of world, how can those real families bother to make friends with a merchant like him?Most of the people who come and go to his shop are housekeepers from these families, and this is the first time he has faced such a big person.

Aware of Wang She's restraint, Marquis Xing'an didn't take it seriously, thought for a while, and said, "Your name is Wang She? I vaguely remember that we have some relatives before?"

When these words came out, Wang She was frightened into a cold sweat. No one in Gusu City knew that the Marquis of Xing'an hated the so-called "relatives" the most. When Huizi brought up this remark, Wang She felt a throbbing pain in his head, and hurriedly explained:

"Where did Lord Hou mention this? I just heard from my grandfather that my great-grandfather was connected to the Hou family when he was a family member. He is not a serious relative, and he has not dared to cling to him all these years."

Speaking of which, the great-grandfather of Wang She's family was still born in Juren, and he was once released as a small official. Because both families were surnamed Wang, Wang She's great-grandfather was connected with the Houfu Hou Ye who was in Shangfeng at that time. He was in decline when his grandfather was in the society, and he has been reduced to renting land in the countryside for a living today. Although he knows this has happened, but with the behavior of the Xing'an Marquis today, how dare he mention this experience? It was forgotten.

Now that Marquis Xing'an mentioned this matter, Wang She couldn't help explaining it quickly, but he still wondered who was talking about this matter in front of Lord Hou, it was really terrible.

How did you know that Marquis Xing'an nodded after listening to it: "That's what happened. No wonder I only vaguely heard about it. Since we are connected to Zong, we can be regarded as relatives. In the future, when Wei Zhen comes to my residence to practice martial arts, he will bring him with him. Your brother is also coming to sit down."

Wang Qi didn't know the twists and turns, but he was very happy when he heard this, his eyes lit up, and Wang She couldn't help being stunned, and it took a long time to answer quickly, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart. For a long time, I couldn't figure out the intention of this Lord Hou.

When Wu Xi took his leave and left the Hou's mansion with the children, the lady who got the letter was puzzled and asked Xing'an Hou this question that also made Wang She sleepless: "Master Hou is doing well today. Have you taken the initiative to recognize these unrelated relatives?"

The Marquis of Xing'an did not answer but instead asked: "Look at you today, how is that child named Wang She?"

Madame thought about that among the four children, Lin Jingxuan's demeanor needless to say, Wei Zhen liked it more and more, Zhang Wenzhi was too shy but a bit petty, that Wang Qi, although not outstanding in appearance, was the one who could make her feel the most She also likes to tease the child to talk a little bit, even eating fruit, although the child's eating is vulgar, but it makes people feel more festive when looking at it, like a real treasure.

It's just... a thought flashed in Madam's mind, and she couldn't help asking in surprise: "Master Hou, don't you want it?"

"Well, does Madam like him?" Lord Hou nodded, looking at his wife with tenderness.

The lady's voice couldn't help but choked with sobs: "Why do you bother! We are destined to have no children, so why bother to have children from other people's families. In the future, when you have troubles, I will go underground with you to be a husband and wife again. There is nothing to worry about, you Why bother to trouble me like this!"
