Chapter 54 Birthday
As the sun sets, the West Mansion next door becomes lively again as the masters return home.
Less than half an hour later, Shen Ning received a note from Jia's mother, saying that Wang's birthday could not be celebrated today, but would be made up for tomorrow, and she was invited to come to the house for drinks and opera.
I can't drink, but I can listen to plays.
Why does Shen Ning, who has no cell phone, no internet, and nothing at all, want to climb Tianxiang Tower every day? Isn't it because you can see farther from a higher place?
Shen Ning, who was almost going crazy, agreed on the spot.
Wang, who had been flattering Lady Jia for a long time, breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that she was willing to come.
Her brother asked her to be patient and repair their relationship.
It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
If she could endure for ten years, and wait until he had complete control over the Beijing camp, he would be able to resolve any hatred or grudge for her.
Now……
Mrs. Wang suddenly realized that she and her brother were worrying too much.
If you were really tough, you wouldn't have given her a birthday present.
That so-called forgiveness... can only be said verbally.
Even if the relationship between the two governments breaks down, they are still connected.
"old lady!"
Wang looked charitable, "Lian'er has been out for a few days. He has been hanging around me since he was a child. Now that he is suddenly not at home, I really can't eat or sleep well."
Lian Er used to do all the housework.
Although Feng'er can do it, she can only take care of the household and cannot go out.
If Lian Er was at home when something happened to her second brother, Zhu'er wouldn't have to be so busy.
Wang really missed Jia Lian these days.
"Come to think of it, sister-in-law shouldn't have let Lian'er go to Jiangnan," she glanced at her niece who was keeping silent and bowed her head, "It's only been a short time since he and Feng'er got married, and now..."
"You've really worked hard during this period, Miss Feng."
Grandmother Jia hated this daughter-in-law who never learned her lesson. Shen came here because of her face, the Jia family's face, and the children's face. It didn't necessarily have anything to do with you, Wang. So she interrupted directly and said, "But the sacrificial land for the school is also a serious matter. Fortunately, his aunt and uncle in Jiangnan are helping him. I think they have already bought the sacrificial land and may be on their way back. Don't worry, Feng girl. When he comes back, I will let Lian'er thank you."
"Madam, Madam, the Second Master is not at home, this is what I should do."
Wang Xifeng missed Jia Lian very much, but she was a little reluctant to let him come back.
The Wang family is her maternal family. After the horse-frightening incident, she also felt sorry for her eldest uncle and second uncle, but they are them and Jia Lian is Jia Lian.
Brother Zhu is the nephew and he was busy running around, but the result did not satisfy his uncle and the family.
If Jia Lian came back, it would definitely be just as thankless.
This capital... feels a bit dangerous.
She saw from afar the twelve guards transferred from the Beijing camp by the Wang family. Wang Xifeng knew the one with the protruding ears. She often dressed like a boy when she was young. Once, she went to the farm below with Wang Ren'ge to play. When they were hunting, she paid special attention to the one with the protruding ears. Perhaps because of his special ears, he could hear sounds from far away and helped them catch more prey.
When she came back, she told her uncle about it. However, less than a month later, she heard that Big Ears had died.
But now he appears in the Wang family and becomes a member of the Beijing camp.
Wang Xifeng was afraid that someone wanted to use the protruding ears to target the Wang family, so she went to find her uncle. However, her uncle calmly told her not to ask about things that she shouldn't ask about.
From the frightened horse to the protruding ears, she always felt that something was very dangerous here.
"The sacrificial field has been well prepared, and it is also a great achievement made by our Second Master for the clan, the old ladies and the wives."
Wang Xifeng smiled and tried to get over this part, "He's not at home, but I'm still here. Tomorrow I'll toast to the old lady and the ladies with a few more glasses of wine on his behalf."
"Hahaha, that's exactly what it should be!"
Grandmother Jia was amused by her. "But you have worked hard, so I can't help but reward you." She thought for a moment and said to her maid, "Go and get that set of jade jewelry and give it to Feng."
Wang watched helplessly as her niece used her eloquent tongue to make the old lady laugh from time to time. Then she looked at the large mahogany jewelry box, and her chest became increasingly suffocated.
This is her Baoyu’s!
Wang tried her best to maintain her dignity and waited until the show was over before she hurried to Rong Xi Tang.
Today was her birthday. Although she didn't celebrate it, Jia Zheng would always give her one or two small gifts in previous years and leave them at her place. This year...
She was thinking about Jia Zheng, but she didn't expect that as soon as she saw him from a distance, he turned and went to Aunt Zhao.
This? Wang stood there, and the little maid who followed her didn't dare to say a word.
After a long while, she slowly exhaled and said, "Let's go!"
She knew that Jia Zheng was taking his anger out on her.
These days at Wang's house, his eldest brother gave him a cold look.
But the eldest brother was injured and the second brother was on the verge of life and death. Who could care about his emotions?
Over the years, she gave birth to three children for him, but he was not considerate of her at all.
Mrs. Wang walked back with one foot deep and one foot shallow, but she didn't expect that as soon as she entered Rong Xi Hall, she heard the voices of her eldest son and Baoyu.
"Mrs!"
Jia Baoyu's childish voice was clear and full of joy, "My elder brother and I will accompany you to eat longevity noodles!"
Because he was young, he never went to the Wang family, so he didn't get to eat the longevity noodles.
"Mother!"
Jia Zhu's voice and smile were both gentle. "Baoyu hasn't had your longevity noodles yet," he took out the noodles and dishes from the food box, "My son thought he'd also like to have a midnight snack."
“Okay, okay!”
The disappointment on Mrs. Wang's face was instantly replaced by joy and love.
On the other side, Aunt Zhao, who had finally waited for Jia Zheng, was also filled with joy, "Master, you are back. You must have been very busy these past few days. You have lost weight."
“…Can it not be hard?”
Jia Zheng did feel pain in his waist and back. He had been unable to eat or sleep well these past few days.
Those people from the Wang family...
Humph~ Do you think he has no eyes and ears? Jia Zheng was also very depressed. The matter of the startled horse was obviously a problem of the Beijing camp. The eldest brother-in-law did not think about who he had offended, but insisted on asking Zhu'er to investigate. It was obvious that he was making things difficult for them. "Fortunately, it's all over."
"Then please sit down. I'll get you a basin of water and massage your feet."
Aunt Zhao diligently got him some water and helped him take off his shoes, her slender hands pressing flexibly and powerfully on his feet.
Jia Zheng closed his eyes slightly and slowly enjoyed it. "Has Huan'er been good these days?"
"Don't worry, Huan'er has always been very well behaved."
Speaking of her son, Aunt Zhao's eyes were filled with tenderness and love. "When you were not home for a few days, he kept calling you 'Daddy, Daddy'."
"…Falling asleep?"
Jia Zheng lowered his voice and looked towards the inner room.
"Isn't it?" Aunt Zhao laughed, "He always dozes off when the lights are on."
Her son is adorable, her daughter is worry-free, and she doesn't have to set rules when her wife is not at home.
Aunt Zhao has been living a very comfortable life these days, especially now that the master has come back. She looks at Jia Zheng with a glance and feels a little sad.
Jia Zheng got the hint, and of course he missed her very much, so he grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms, "Huan'er misses her father, don't you?"
"Hate~"
Aunt Zhao sat on his lap and put her arms around his neck. Her watery eyes only focused on Jia Zheng. "Of course I miss you. I miss you very much."
