When Sister Feng heard that Mrs. Wang was coming, she immediately felt that she had a backer and her waist became much stronger. She asked Ping'er to rush out to greet her, and she also put on her clothes and got up to greet her.
But they saw Mrs. Wang's face was ashen, and she came into the house with only a little girl who was close to her. She went straight to the inner room and sat down in the chair opposite Sister Feng's Kang.
Sister Feng was still weak, so she reluctantly put on her clothes and stood up. She took the tea from Ping'er and offered it to Mrs. Wang with a smile:
"I was going to see my wife here, but she came to see me first. I..."
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Wang had already shouted: "Ping'er, get out!"
When Ping'er saw Mrs. Wang's unkind expression, she couldn't guess what was going on - could it be that the quarrel between Master Lian and Mistress Cai Lian had spread to Mrs. Wang's ears so quickly?
Ping'er felt uneasy, but she had no choice but to respond quickly, led all the little girls out of the house, and closed the door outside.
He was also afraid that people outside would go in to reply without knowing anything, and he was also afraid that no one would answer his calls inside the house, so Ping'er simply sat on the steps by himself and ordered no one to go in.
.
Wang Xifeng felt a little flustered when she saw Mrs. Wang acting like this. When she heard Mrs. Wang huffing and saying nothing, she tried to say:
"I just had a quarrel with Lian Er..."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang immediately sneered and said:
"In the whole family, who else is as harmonious and harmonious as your little husband and wife?
You are capable and smart, Lian Er is smart and capable, you are a proud couple, you are a couple that covers the sky and everything is done thoughtfully, who in this house can compare with you?
There’s no need for you to silence me by saying you were quarreling as soon as I opened my mouth, I’m not a fool.”
Sister Feng felt very wrong when she heard this. It was not at all like her aunt talking to her in a normal tone. She quickly tried her best to apologize and said with a smile:
"What my wife said makes me feel ashamed. How old have I been, what do I know about the importance? I have no experience or knowledge. In front of my wife, am I just a fool?
As for the harmony between us as a husband and wife, no one else knows about the joys and sorrows involved. My wife is my biological aunt, and my whole heart has been cut open in front of her eight hundred times. What else does she not know?" "What don't I know? I know people, faces but not hearts."
Mrs. Wang's voice had a vibrato, she pointed at Wang Xifeng's nose and said:
"Let me ask you, how did I treat you when you were a child? How did I teach you?
We, the Wang family, need to be like one, have the same thoughts, take care of each other, and support each other. This is what our Wang family should be like.
But what about you? When I asked you to take advantage of Wang Chunfeng's trap, you refused to agree even if you were dead. You had to marry Lian Er as a married couple.
Okay, we'll leave it up to you. But you have to keep up the good work. I asked you to suppress Lian Er, so that you can come over and help me take care of the internal affairs of the Rongguo Mansion. Can you do it?
Wang Xifeng, Wang Xifeng, I promoted you to the position, but you dare to step on my shoulders and go to the old lady. Do you think you can get over me after coaxing the old lady? Your conscience is eaten by dogs? You said you couldn't suppress Lian Er, who would believe that? You have suppressed him for the past few years, so why did Hu Laba fall like a mountain in defeat?
Forget it, I'll just pretend that you didn't lie to me. You can't suppress him, but you still have to give me a message, right?
You don’t know anything about that ungrateful bastard Lian Er who went to chop coffins on the street and you didn’t know anything about it? Now he’s inciting the old man to go to his concubine to borrow money to build a provincial residence, and you’re doing the same thing and saying that you’re all
Not aware?"
When Mrs. Wang was not married, she was also known as a refreshing person. Her eloquence was not inferior to that of Wang Xifeng. It was only in the first few years that she was heartbroken by the affairs of her beloved son Jia Zhu and niece Wang Chunfeng, so she turned to reciting the Buddha's name every day.
The dull look.
At this time, the fire was strong, and Mrs. Wang's eloquent skills naturally returned.
.
When Sister Feng heard this, she was anxious and angry, and her yellow face suddenly turned green and white. She knelt down on the edge of the Kang and said with tears:
"My wife said something about me, and I don't dare to argue. But if I don't tell my wife about the grievances I feel, who else can I talk to?
My father and mother are both soft-tempered and have no virtues. Since I was a child, what I have admired the most is my aunt, who is quick and capable.
It's what my wife just said. From childhood to adulthood, I know how my wife treats me and teaches me.
My wife has been annoyed with me recently, I know it in my heart, but I don’t dare to annoy my wife even a little bit. I still think in my heart that our Wang family is like a vine, how could I turn to Lian Er?
The Jia family has been rich and prosperous for hundreds of years. In the first few years, it was our Wang family who really wanted to look forward to the Jia family.
But things are different now. My second uncle won the favor this year and was promoted all the way, but the men in their Jia family have no future.
Our aunt and I don’t know clearly how far their family has declined over the years. Although their outer frame has not collapsed, their inner pockets have been used up. If this continues, they will all be exhausted in a few years. p>
Aunt, please think about it, at this point, how can I help the Jia family plot against our Wang family?"
"Bah!" Mrs. Wang looked at Wang Xifeng and spat, "You have a sharp tongue, Wang Xifeng, stop your clever mouth! Others will be fooled by you, but I will not be fooled by you.
Lian Er is a cunning and unmotivated young man. How can he be as scheming as you? Can he be as cruel as you?
Don't you know how jealous you are, others don't know it, and I don't know it? You were jealous of Baochai for taking away your housekeeping rights, so you instigated the master to take money from the Xue family on the pretext of building a villa for Concubine Xiande to be a prostitute.
idea.
If Aunt Xue had no choice but to agree, she would be defrauded of tens of thousands of taels of silver. With the Jia family's current virtue, can they afford to repay the Xue family these tens of thousands of taels of silver every year?
If Aunt Xue refuses to lend money, she will inevitably offend the master. The master will be worried about the marriage of Baochai and Baoyu.
Let me tell you Wang Xifeng, don’t think that because you stopped Baochai from becoming Baochai’s second wife, you can regain your position as housekeeper. If I can praise you, I can crush you!"
When Wang Xifeng heard this, she felt as if ice water had been poured down her head. Tears streamed down her face, her hands trembled, and she said in a trembling voice:
"Madam... Lian Er... Lian Er said that she wants to make peace with me..."
Mrs. Wang glanced at Wang Xifeng coldly:
"That's a matter between you and your husband. Even if you want to ask your elders, you should go to your mother-in-law for comment. I have no control over it."
After a pause, he said again:
"You still don't have to act in front of me. If you tell the truth and admit it, you have some backbone of our Wang family. Who would believe you if you say something like this at this time?"
The shocked Wang Xifeng suddenly burst into tears:
"My wife...if you don't believe me, I would rather die in front of my wife to prove my ambition."
Mrs. Wang stood up suddenly:
"I can't bear to see you being so pretentious! If you want to kill me, you can kill me again after I leave. Don't cause trouble for me here."
