Feng Ziying felt her forehead hurt when she heard it.
Big business outside the Great Wall? Don't make any mistakes, but with my father's temperament, I won't go beyond the bottom line.
Before going to the academy, because he was busy with various things, he didn't bother to know about his family's business in Datong. His impression was only a few shops and a few shops. He didn't hear that he had any business dealings with outside the Great Wall.
My father wouldn't be so careless, he would have to let others catch him with such a big deal.
"Well, during the time I was studying, did anyone come to the house?"
Yun Shang naturally understood what Feng Ziying meant. Many people had come to the house in the past month or so, and the young master was asking about things related to him.
"Here, there is a post here, saying that it is not well-known." Yun Shang had already taken the post over.
The font is elegant, lively and elegant.
"Isn't it well-known?" Feng Ziying was amused.
This girl is actually playing a mystery with herself now, but this is a good thing.
He was certain that although the writing was beautiful, it was definitely not her usual handwriting. He had also told her to stay under someone else's roof and be careful in everything, so as not to be taken advantage of.
"Well, Ruixiang brought it back, and even the master and his wife don't know about it." Yun Shang also had some confusion on her face.
Being between the master, his wife, and the young master, she knew that she was not popular, but the more unpopular she was with the wife, the more she had to rely on the young master.
Fortunately, the young master is a tolerant person, otherwise he would have been driven to the back room, and he would even be pulled out to be matched with someone unknown. Thinking of this, Yun Shang shuddered.
The Feng Mansion is so big that no one can hide any disturbances.
He relied on his wife and could not see her doing well. Naturally, he still saw Feng Ziying "growing up" in the Feng Mansion and preparing to light up the cold stove.
Many people in the house knew about Feng Ziying's doting on Yun Shang. It would be a violation of heaven to dare to talk to his wife over a girl, but he actually got through it like this.
Yun Shang was not kicked out. When did the wife become so easy to talk to? Who else could be other than the young master's attitude?
After this incident, some people naturally began to wonder, what if this charming Yun Shang really becomes the man in the young master's house in the future?
So for more than a month, although Yun Shang has been hiding in the small courtyard and dare not go out, she can still hear some news from some people's explicit and implicit words, especially the attitude of the master and his wife who she cares about most.
"Ruixiang brought it back?" Feng Ziying was greatly surprised.
"He said it was given to him by a little girl. He only said that he was an old friend of Linqing. He was not well-known. He asked the young master not to forget his promise when he returned to the city." Yun Shang remembered this passage very clearly, but after receiving the post, she asked Ruixiang
I forgot everything about this matter.
Feng Ziying couldn't help scratching her head.
This promise has really become a curse.
The little girl was all alone in Jia's house, so she seemed to place her soul on herself.
If you don't go, it doesn't make sense either emotionally or rationally, but if you want to go, there must be a reason.
Regardless of the relationship between men and women, the girl is still young, but I can't rely on being the other person's savior to visit again and again.
If this happens a few times, people will become suspicious.
I am not Jia Baoyu, so I cannot go in and out of Jia's house at will. I have to have a suitable reason to go.
He had nothing to do with Jia Baoyu, and Jia Lian did have some friendship, but he couldn't take the initiative to say that he wanted to visit him. Maybe they really thought that he wanted to marry his sister, and that would be terrible.
"Ruixiang goes out a lot during this time?" Feng Ziying pondered for a moment.
With Ruixiang's temperament, he couldn't believe that he could be trapped in the courtyard all day like Yun Shang.
However, this kid knows what's going on and doesn't dare to act recklessly. If he can send a message through him and do something like this, it will still work.
Earlier, her mother said that she was going to the temple to offer incense tomorrow and asked him to accompany her. He was forced to agree that if he let the girl go to the temple too, he could find a chance to meet her and exchange a few words, which would grant her her wish.
.
"Go and call Ruixiang." Thinking of this, Feng Ziying asked Yun Shang to call Ruixiang.
There are still a few people around him. Look at how many servants and boys there are around Jia Baoyu. There is no comparison. This is the difference.
Feng Ziying shook his head. He was not envious of Jia Baoyu's treatment, but he was thinking about whether the Jia family would really decline in the future, and he didn't know how a dandy like Jia Baoyu would live.
He didn't believe the endings mentioned in the book "A Dream of Red Mansions", such as becoming a beggar or shaving one's hair and becoming a monk. It was obvious that it was Cao Gong's fictitious writing technique.
These days, a big family either slowly declines, sells its land, sells its yard, sells its village, and eventually becomes a shabby settlement like those bannermen on the edge of the Forty-Nine City in the late Qing Dynasty, or it falls suddenly and becomes a corpse among the carvings.
The vultures serve their meals.
If the Jia family is really involved in the unspeakable matter of the Tian family seizing the throne, I'm afraid the latter is more likely.
"Master, do you want to send a message to the Jia family?" Ruixiang actually knew who Feng Ziying wanted to send the message to, but he did not dare to point it out. He said with a bitter face: "Second Master Lian, Xing'er, I, Zhao'er and I are still here."
I'm fairly familiar with Long'er, and I'm the most familiar with Zhao'er, but I'm not familiar with the other people in the house, not to mention that I don't dare to leave such matters to Zhao'er."
This is a problem. Communication is not convenient these days. If you can't send a message well, you have to make it known to everyone.
Besides, a house like the Jia Mansion, with its gates tightly guarded, would be extremely difficult for an outsider to send a message inside, and to send a message to a boudoir lady who lives there.
"Don't you have a fierce fight with Jia's family? Isn't there any way to control it in front of your father?" Feng Ziying also knew that this matter was not easy to handle, but he also heard that several people under Jia Lian were fighting with him.
Ruixiang is very warm.
She generally knew what the plan was, and it was nothing more than to find out the truth about her marriage from the Feng family. Feng Ziying had already told Ruixiang about this when she left home to study. There was no need to refuse, and they could make good friends.
The reason for this is that Feng Ziying also wants to use Ruixiang's mouth to convey news to the Jia family. The Jia family is composed of four princes and eight lords. As long as interested people want to inquire, they can naturally get the information.
Ruixiang was worried and hesitant.
"Why, are you looking down on me in front of me?" Feng Ziying sneered, "Is it because you think your skin is thick and your life is in danger?"
With a plop, Ruixiang fell to the ground and kowtowed, "Uncle, little one..."
Feng Ziying was really surprised. She just saw that this guy was a little guilty, and he was just cheating. Why did this guy kneel down and kowtow? Could it be that there was something weird and fishy?
"Tell me, I'm sorry you can't do anything earth-shattering." Feng Ziying was really curious at this time. He knew this Ruixiang. He had a lively temper, but he didn't have much courage. If he dared to do something like this,
He wouldn't believe anything treacherous or treasonous.
"Master, I have been going to Jia's house a lot these days, and I have become familiar with it." Ruixiang knelt on the ground and did not dare to get up. He just kowtowed, "That day, Grandpa Lian Er drank wine and let
Zhaoer called the younger one and asked about the master..."
"Brother Lian asked you about me?" Feng Ziying wondered.
"Second Master Lian probably drank too much. He asked a lot of random questions. I asked him if you were married and if there was anyone suitable for you. How dare you give random answers? I just said I don't know. That's my wife's business.
, Brother Lian asked if my wife was the one who made the final decision on all these things in the house. I didn’t dare to reply, so I found an excuse and ran away..."
Feng Ziying could also guess in her heart that the Jia family really wanted to marry Jia Yingchun to herself.
The idea of dragging him to the house for a drink that day had already been part of his mind, and now he was thinking about trying to trick his mother again.
Not to mention anything else, according to what is written in the book, Jia Yingchun's temperament is honest and cowardly. Will he be able to manage such a large Feng family in the future? I am afraid that his mother likes such a weak-tempered daughter-in-law.
Feng Ziying felt a little frightened when she thought of this.
These days, it is really the parents who order the matchmaker. If I really decide this matter behind my back and discuss the marriage with the Jia family, it is really hard to go back on it.
But I have to get vaccinated as soon as possible. That Ermu will definitely not be able to marry or be a big wife.
But just for this matter, you won’t make this guy kneel down and kowtow, right?
"Well, what else is there?" Feng Ziying leaned on the back of the chair and squinted at this guy.
"Later, when the younger one was leaving the house, a girl stopped me and asked Mr. Lian what he wanted to do with me. Naturally, the younger one couldn't tell me. We argued for a while, but later I found out that it was the second master of the Jia family.
The girl's eldest maid is called Si Qi, she is so fierce..."
"Continue talking." Si Qi and Feng Ziying did not expect that the characters from the second volume of The Twelve Beauties of Red Mansions would also appear.
Entering Jia's house that day, he was really dazzled, and etiquette did not allow him to look around, so except for Daiyu, Sanchun, Wang Xifeng, and Li Wan, other people like the maids really didn't pay much attention.
"Then a little girl came to befriend her..."
Make the point, little maid.
Feng Ziying thought, since Ruixiang said that she was a big maid and very fierce, it was unlikely that she had anything to do with Si Qi, and it would probably fall on this little maid.
"... One day later, I met this little girl again at the corner gate of Jia Mansion..."
Jia Lian asked Ruixiang to find out about the situation. Feng Ziying had given instructions to him to go. He told him truthfully that he wanted to study and take the imperial examination, so it was okay to go to Jia's house, but he never thought that he would be able to go there. The little maid was hooked up.
Thinking of this, Feng Ziying was both funny and angry.
It is said that being next to the red building, beauties will have no worries. Unexpectedly, before he "took action", his servant boy did it first.
But I guess it's just a little bit of friendship, Liang Ruixiang doesn't dare to cross the line. This guy is even a month younger than me, does he have that ability?
"What's that little girl's name?" Feng Ziying couldn't help but ask.
"My name is Lian Hua'er." Ruixiang muttered, his voice almost inaudible.
"Lotus?" Feng Ziying was completely unimpressed.
He had some impressions of Siqi, the eldest maid who welcomed the spring. After all, this girl was very fierce, and the scene where she made a scene in the kitchen was very eye-catching. There was also a spring pouch that was suspected to be a derivative of her affair with her cousin Pan Youan, which triggered a raid on the Grand View Garden. It is also a big event, and anyone who has watched "Dream of Red Mansions" should have an impression.
"She's Miss Jia'er's little maid." Ruixiang kowtowed again, "I've never had anything with her. We just got to know each other a little and chatted a lot."
This guy, Feng Ziying, was so angry and funny. She actually thought that she knew about the affair between him and the little maid, so she was so panicked.
"Humph, at such a young age, you are acting like this. Do you really want to seek death?" Feng Ziying snorted coldly, "My mother's eyes are not open to dust. If my wife finds out, be careful!"
His head banged on the green bricks, but Ruixiang didn't dare to speak. Seeing Ruixiang's forehead turning black, Feng Ziying couldn't bear it, "Okay, stop pretending to be a kowtow, I still have something serious for you to do." .”
Hearing Feng Ziying relax, Ruixiang kowtowed three more times and said: "Uncle, I don't dare to do anything, just because I'm afraid of losing my face..."
"Yes, you don't want to act here. My face is worthless." Feng Ziying quickly stopped. If this guy gave him three points of love, he would dare to be popular, and he would have to beat him at any time, "Then Lian Hua'er and Lin Are you familiar with the girl's side?"
Ruixiang hesitated for a moment, tilted his head and thought for a while before saying: "I'm afraid I can't say that I'm familiar with you, but I think I have some contacts. I asked, Miss Lin doesn't like to go out very much, and Miss Jia Er doesn't like to go out too much either."
I love going out, so..."
"Then how to send a message?" Feng Ziying pondered: "Are the lotus and the rhododendron familiar?"
"Lian Hua'er and Miss Zicuckoo are not very familiar with each other, but Siqi is very familiar with Zicuckoo." Ruixiang naturally understood the young master's thoughts, "But Siqi is not someone to be trifled with..."
"Get up." Feng Ziying stood up and thought about this matter, "If you can come up with an idea, I will bypass you this time."
Ruixiang stood up with a grimace and said, "Sir, how can you think of anything for such a small matter? Miss Lin usually just hugs you and gives her the cat, and doesn't talk much. She never leaves the house.
Mai, if anything happens, that girl Zicuckoo will come out. I heard that the cat is also very sleepy these days..."
"Oh?" Feng Ziying's heart moved slightly.
After thinking about it for a while, I stood up, picked up a pen and wrote on a piece of paper, then handed it to Ruixiang.
"Go to Jia Mansion, give this prescription to Zhao'er, and say that the cat you saw Miss Lin that day is sick. By chance, you asked for a prescription specifically for treating cats from the Dahuguo Temple. It is extremely effective.
, asked him to hand it over to Zijuan, the original words were conveyed to,..."
There must be a reason to go to Jia's house to see and deliver prescriptions. It is impossible for such maids to see outsiders without a reason. It is impossible to come and go at will. But if Lin Daiyu's lion cat is sick, there will naturally be a reason.
That's the reason. It makes sense to send you a prescription.
