Volume B, Section 163, Five Entering Jia's Mansion (Part 2)
Feng Ziying finally regained her composure this time and didn't drink too much, but she still felt a bit drunk.
It was so bad that Feng Ziying even felt a little embarrassed.
How did he end up like this after a few glasses of rice wine? Where did his ability to stay drunk after a thousand glasses of white wine, beer, and red wine go in his previous life?
This physique has changed. Why is it so different? Even if I want to be stable, I can't be stable?
Fortunately, his status is different now. Even Jia Lian respects his wishes and just enjoys himself.
Jia Lian rambled on about everything that happened in the past year. He didn't complain too much, but he was a little regretful that it was boring to idle around the house for a year, and it felt like a waste of time.
Of course Feng Ziying understood what Jia Lian meant, but he really didn't have the energy to think about these things now. Everything would have to wait until spring next February.
If the Spring Festival does not pass, then he will have to suffer for three more years. If the Spring Festival really passes by, everything will be different.
Once the academic pressure is gone, he can free up more energy to consider and plan his future career, instead of just limiting it to one aspect.
Therefore, when faced with Jia Lian's half-truths and half-falsities, he had nothing to say and only told him to discuss the matter after next spring.
It should be said that Jia Lian's character is indeed good, gentle and moderate, and he is also very self-aware and able to listen to different opinions. In particular, he almost obeys Feng Ziying's suggestions.
After Feng Ziying assured him that next spring, whether she could pass the exam or not, she would have some livelihood to hand over to Jia Lian, Jia Lian felt relieved.
In a sense, Jia Lian also has a weakness, that is, it is easy to trust people. It is okay to trust Feng Ziying, but if he trusts people too much in his business, it is easy to cause problems. Feng Ziying is also aware of this situation and has to remind him according to the situation.
Give each other a try.
Ping'er has always been surprised at how Feng Ziying got along so well with Mr. Lian. Seeing the two of them drinking and chatting in the room, talking about how they were in love, made her quite curious.
Of course she didn't know that Feng Ziying actually trained Jia Lian as a half-tool man. He had some abilities and a good personality, so why did he have to hang himself on a tree with a crooked neck in Jia's house and wait for death?
If it can be used for oneself, there is no need to spend more time searching. At least Jia Lian's character is still passable. In the future, there will be more things in his hands. Except for officialdom matters, Jia Lian can't help him, and other matters such as industrial livelihood.
In fact, Jia Lian can help with all kinds of things.
Of course, the premise is that Wang Xifeng must be dealt with properly. That woman is too greedy and greedy to have a close relationship with her.
Of course, it is impossible for the second grandmother to come to accompany the wine. Besides, she is a good friend of the family, but she is an outsider after all. But as a girl, Ping'er will inevitably have to rush the kitchen to serve the food and send the little girls to deliver the wine.
When she was out of court, she saw Qiao Ping'er arranging the maids in the room, serving food, wine and towels. Feng Ziying became more and more fond of Ping'er. No wonder this girl was rated as one of the four great maids. Such a smart and capable girl.
He also has a good personality and good character, so he is naturally very popular.
As soon as Ping'er raised his head, he saw Feng Ziying standing in the corridor looking at him. His face suddenly became hot, but he quickly calmed down: "Why don't you go in, Uncle Feng? Second Master Lian is still waiting for you."
"I drank two more cups and got some heartburn. Come out and get some fresh air." Feng Ziying nodded slightly, "Looking at your appearance, you really do look a bit like a big butler. You are very orderly. Good luck to you, Brother Lian."
When Feng Ziying said this, Ping'er's face turned red even more. She pinched her sweat towel and pursed her lips and smiled: "Uncle Feng praises me like this, but I can't be worthy of being a slave. She's just capable of doing some rough work."
"Okay, I've heard of your mediocre reputation after so many visits to the Jia Mansion. Except for this girl Yuanyang, I'm afraid no one can compete with you." Feng Ziying waved her hand, "This is the place in our Feng Mansion.
Compared with the Jia family, it lacks some foundation, but Ping'er, you were brought here from the Wang family by the second sister-in-law, right? I don't think the Wang family is very good, how can they cultivate a girl like you?"
After drinking some wine, Feng Ziying became less scrupulous and spoke much more casually.
I can’t remember when I omitted Ping’er girl to Ping’er. Anyway, I just called Ping’er directly, and Yuanyang girl also became Yuanyang girl. Feng Ziying herself felt a little lost.
Ping'er really felt a little overwhelmed by Feng Ziying's praise. He actually said that the Wang family was not that good. How do you know that the Wang family was not that good?
Seeing that Ping'er's face sank slightly but said nothing, Feng Ziying didn't care, waved her hand and went straight into the house.
After the meal, Feng Ziying declined Jia Lian's offer to stay and left directly.
Jia Lian, on the other hand, was happy and drank a few more drinks, which made him drunk, causing Ping'er and Feng'er to carry Jia Lian into the house to sleep.
"I don't know why I drink so much. I haven't seen the Feng family's elder brother drink too much." Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lian's sleepy appearance angrily, leaning on the kang outside when he went out, "
But I can’t blame him, this Feng family man is different, no wonder he is happy to be able to drink alone with him like this, I am afraid that this kind of opportunity will be rare in the future."
Ping'er just took the water out and poured it out and then came in. Hearing Wang Xifeng talking to himself, he was a little surprised: "Why did grandma say that? I can see that Uncle Feng's speech is different from before."
"Huh, can it be the same? Of course the Feng family is different now. He won the imperial examination, let alone next spring, but looking at this situation, at least he will not be able to escape in the next spring."
Wang Xifeng lazily unbuttoned her jacket, revealing a touch of moon-white underwear underneath. Her bulging breasts became rounder and larger. She held one hand under her chin, while the other gently tapped her leg.
"You didn't listen to that conversation outside Baoyu House before. Even the master and his wife were dumbfounded. How can I describe it in one word? Yes, breathtaking, incredible..."
Ping'er put down the basin in his hand very knowingly, then wiped his hands clean, sat next to Wang Xifeng and gently tapped his legs: "Uncle Feng is so powerful, but he has nothing to do with our family..."
"Hmph, that's hard to say. If the eldest master doesn't say anything, it's probably hard for the second girl to fall in the Feng family's eyes. I think the second master must have had the idea of spying on the girl, but..." Wang Xifeng shook her head.
"Ah? Third girl?" Ping'er suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the Jia family was so enthusiastic and active towards the Feng family's eldest son, and there was this reason behind it, "Is that possible?"
"I'm afraid it's not easy. Tan Yatou is a smart and lovely person, but unfortunately she wasn't born in the wife's belly..." Wang Xifeng sighed, "I guess the master is also in trouble. If the eldest girl didn't enter the palace, it would be perfect.
"
Ping'er also realized that Tanchun's status as a commoner would have an impact, but he didn't expect the impact to be so big.
"But even without these reasons, the Jia family does need to have good relations with a family like the Feng family." Wang Xifeng sighed, "In the Rongning Second Mansion, except for the second master, only one of them has a real official position, but
You are not an outsider. You also know the situation of the second master in the Ministry of Industry. The other elders are just waiting to die. It is good if they can avoid causing trouble. Over in Ningguo Mansion, besides Gao Le, the father and son,
It seems that they have no ability to do anything else. Fortunately, the population there is much smaller than ours, otherwise they may not be able to maintain their food and clothing costs..."
"Grandma, you're not that sad, are you?" Ping'er was surprised when she heard Wang Xifeng say such things for the first time.
"Don't you know the difficulty of the situation here? People all day long are thinking about how to clean themselves out of the mansion before they leave." Wang Xifeng glanced at Ping'er, "It's more complicated over there in Ning Mansion.
It’s unbearable, the father and son have been doing all the trouble without caring about it, and the You family can’t care about it, while the Qin family doesn’t care about it at all. If this continues, I’m afraid even the palace will have to let them go through all the trouble.”
Ping'er said nothing. She didn't know about the east side, but she knew a little about her own side.
There are more than a thousand people, people eat horse chews, not to mention this, the key point is that every room in this mansion has careful thoughts, including the one in front of me, but they are only allowed to be set on fire by the state officials.
When the people light lamps, of course their masters will not talk about themselves, but they are thinking about people like the Lai family who cling to the Jia family, but are very dedicated to gathering wool in the Jia family.
However, the Lai family did go a bit too far. The two brothers, Lai Da and Lai Er, controlled the general manager of the Rongning Second Mansion. With the care of the old lady, even their own grandmother did not dare to interfere in many things.
In addition, Mr. Lai and Grandma Lai are also used to causing trouble, and they also brought a group of people from top to bottom to cheer for them. There are many things in the east and west houses of the Jia family that are unclear to the masters.
, but now his two brothers are turning their hands to make clouds and rain.
However, the Lai family has been in the Jia family for so many years and has enjoyed a lot of money. Naturally, some people will be jealous and jealous, and they will inevitably make all kinds of remarks. However, relying on the deep foundation that my mother and two brothers have controlled for so many years, they can still
With the trust of the old lady, no one can defeat the two of them. At most, they can just be careful.
However, for Sister Feng, she was dissatisfied, but she did not dare to touch this hornet's nest easily. After all, it was related to the old lady's face.
It's just that the situation in both Rongning and Ning's houses is not good now, and it's becoming more and more obvious that they are sitting on nothing. As the temporary head of the family, she has to think more about ways to make money.
Last year, she was reluctant to do business with the Feng family because it was the only business and the profits were too considerable. However, if it was a long-term business, she still had to consider whether the Jia family could be involved.
