Chapter 1 001 What is it like to be the daughter of an ancient high-ranking official...
In midsummer June, the entire city of Jinling was shrouded in heat.
The continued high temperature and the sound of cicadas often make people feel irritated for no reason, and Xianyu is no exception.
This is already the third month that she has been wearing this clothes, but as expected, she still can't adapt to this sauna-like weather.
Especially in this age without air conditioning, relying on pure traditional cooling methods to face the scorching heat head-on is simply a torture.
After all, this is Nanjing, one of the three most famous furnaces in the world. If there is no air conditioning in Nanjing in summer, it would be more than just miserable.
That is, very miserable...
Thinking of this, Xianyu couldn't help but sigh again and began to summon the system in her mind:
"San'er! Are you still there? When can I go home?"
System 003: "...Host, please be patient. You are our most distinguished and lucky player. You should know that not everyone can enter the virtual world of classic novels 'Dream of Red Mansions' and immerse yourself in a different life..."
"…So there's nothing you can do, right?"
“…”
Ling Ling San felt wronged, but he didn't say anything.
Also, their name is Ling Ling San, not San'er!
But what can it do? The host this time is the type who looks easy to talk to but is actually stubborn... It's really too much to always treat it as a gourmet system!
Woo woo woo woo, why does it make me want to cry again when I think about this?
"Forget it, then just make some ice powder, shaved ice, ice cream or something? Or can you make an air conditioner?"
"this……"
Listening to the hesitant response of this so-called system, Xianyu closed her eyes helplessly.
As expected, he still wants to kill someone. What the hell is this system binding, lucky players, immersive experience, etc.? Isn't this really a new form of kidnapping?
Apart from anything else, did they ask for my personal consent before binding?
Who wants to be the eldest daughter of a first-rank official in this godforsaken world? It doesn't matter if she is born of a legitimate wife or a concubine's daughter. In this damn weather, she just wants to lie in her own little room in this world, enjoy the air conditioning and play with her phone quietly...
What is it like to be the only legitimate daughter of a first-rank official in the ancient world?
Thanks for the invitation. In the bitter summer of ancient Jinling, which was like a furnace, it was so hot that one could only breathe a breath, and so bored that this breath would soon be gone. Crazy smile.jpg.
Fortunately, this humid, stuffy and boring time was soon interrupted by uninvited guests.
Just when Xianyu was so bored that she started counting the gaps on the floor tiles, a silver bell-like laughter suddenly came from outside the door. The person hadn't arrived yet, but the voice came first. It was a very clear and beautiful voice of a young girl:
"Oh my, what's going on today? Why is it so quiet inside and outside the house? Not even a cat or dog can be seen? Did someone annoy our Sister Xian again?"
Here we come!
Xianyu was shocked and thought that the only hope of having fun today had finally arrived.
Before she could finish her thought, she heard the tinkling of bells and a refreshing fragrance, and the person who had spoken had come in.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! I really guessed it right! What are you thinking about sitting in the house alone on such a hot day? If you don't get up soon, I will eat up all your ice cream and other things."
Well, in the entire world of Dream of the Red Chamber, there is no one else who has such an iconic appearance.
Xianyu looked up and saw that it was indeed Feng Jieer who came.
This Feng Lazi, who was very famous in the original world, was still Miss Xiao Feng at this time.
She was only twelve or thirteen years old, as delicate as a flower bud, but she could already be seen as the beautiful "goddess" in the future. In addition, she was born with a clever mouth, and her words were as sweet as honey. It really made people feel happy when they saw her, and all the summer heat, boredom and boredom disappeared.
Although Feng Jieer is still young, as the daughter of the powerful Jinling Wang family, her daily travels are quite grand, with seven or eight people following her at all times. In any case, she has to have the effect of being surrounded by people at all times.
In addition to the usual maids and servants who accompanied her, following not far behind her were her personal maids Ping'er and An'er.
The two girls were about the same age as Feng Jieer. Although they were both outstanding in appearance, they were both calm and composed. Even though Feng Jieer was yelling and showing off all the way, the two girls just smiled and said nothing. They silently helped Feng Jieer hold fans, whisks and other items for cooling off, as well as a beautifully packaged small box, and followed her steadily.
Xianyu's own personal maids Xi'er and Le'er lagged behind them. They were a year or two younger than Ping'er and were much more lively. They were whispering to each other and laughing as they walked. In their hands, they were holding a few plates containing the ice jelly, shaved ice, ice cream, and ice watermelon that Xianyu had ordered.
Although these things are still rare items to Feng Jieer, they are no longer new to Xianyu.
Not to mention that it has been more than a month since Xianyu first "invented" them with the help of the system. She has been eating them almost every day these days. Just thinking about the many varieties and styles she has eaten in the more than 20 years in the present world is enough.
Therefore, when all these things were served, Xianyu still looked tired and obviously had no interest. It was not until Sister Feng personally handed her a bowl of cold drink, fanned her gently with a fan, and even pretended to feed her that Xianyu reluctantly took it and took a bite, revealing a slight smile:
"Sister Feng, why do you have time to come to my place today? Don't you need to accompany the old lady?"
As the saying goes, "Don't hit a smiling person", with a pretty girl like Feng Jieer coaxing and praising her humbly, Xianyu said that even though she is also a girl, she still feels very useful.
Even if she herself is not a warm and cheerful person, she would not be able to resist when she meets a girl like Feng Jieer who has high emotional intelligence and is very outgoing.
But when Sister Feng heard what she said, she immediately curled her lips and said, "Sister, please don't mention this to me. Our old lady has her precious grandchildren and daughters-in-law to flatter her. It's not my turn to get close to her. I just don't want to be annoying."
Emma, you're out of breath even when I say you're fat. You really are worthy of being called Feng Lazi.
What we are saying is, there is nothing that Ning can't handle, right?
Xianyu really laughed this time, and joked while laughing:
"Sister Feng, you are being too modest. If you are still considered tongue-tied, then we are just clay sculptures and wooden carvings."
Seeing that she was in high spirits, Feng Jieer naturally smiled. Xi'er and Le'er had already burst into laughter. Even Ping'er and An'er couldn't help laughing. The room was instantly filled with a happy atmosphere. But Feng Jieer still didn't stop, but continued to sigh:
"If Sister Xian's appearance is considered a wooden figure, then we should throw her into the stove and burn her as firewood. Look at this world, where can we find such a beautiful wooden figure? Could it be the real body of Goddess Guanyin?"
This Feng Lazi is really getting more and more outrageous. She deserves it for being so smooth-talking and able to run such a big Rongguo Mansion.
Xianyu thought about the glorious deeds of Feng Jieer that were described in great detail in the original novel, and she couldn't help but burst out laughing. This laugh made Feng Jieer even more stunned:
"Oh my, I'm not saying anything, our sister Xian is really pretty. If I were as pretty as sister Xian, I would definitely show my face in front of the old lady every day. I guarantee that the old lady would be extremely happy."
Before she finished speaking, she heard a voice laughing, "I was wondering why you didn't come to my place to embarrass me today, it turns out you were here to frame me with your sister."
When Feng Jieer heard this, she immediately pretended to be shocked and said, "This is terrible! Sister, please save me quickly! The old lady is here to visit!"
Her expressiveness was so strong that Xianyu almost laughed to tears. After a long pause, she panted and said, "It's too late for Sister Feng to be scared now. It would be better for her to get up quickly and kowtow to the old lady to apologize."
With Xianyu's cooperation, Fengjie became more and more excited. She simply rushed over to hug her and trembled, which was a bit like a stage frenzy. The maids in the room burst into laughter. Some came up to pretend to pull her away, some squatted on the ground with a stomachache from laughing, and some even couldn't breathe and asked the little sisters to help them massage their backs...
Seeing that the situation was getting increasingly difficult to handle, an old lady with gray hair, in great spirits and dressed in gorgeous silk clothes walked in with her maid.
It was the old lady that Feng Jieer mentioned, the wife of Lord Wang, the county commander, the biological mother of Wang Ziteng and his brothers, and Madam Wang and Aunt Xue's sisters, the biological grandmother of Feng Jieer and Xianyu, the current head of the Wang family in Jinling, the old lady Jia.
That's right, in this "lucky" "immersive experience of the world of famous works" journey, Xianyu was directly transformed into Wang Xianyu, the only legitimate daughter of Wang Ziteng, the current governor of the Beijing Camp.
That is, she is Feng Jieer's cousin, Lady Wang and Aunt Xue's niece, AKA Jia Baoyu's aunt's cousin... Although she only exists as a background board in the original novel, her background is actually quite impressive.
In the words of System 003, she was not just "lucky". What made her even more "lucky" was that this world of Red Mansions was actually set in the Qing Dynasty.
After all, everyone knows that in their world of time travel, traveling through the Qing Dynasty is very popular...
In short, System 003 said that Xianyu was lucky to be able to travel to this world, and it was all thanks to it choosing her from the crowd...
However, Xianyu said, "Thank you very much. It's a pity that she doesn't even want this blessing...
When she first came through, she was very confused for a while. She just couldn't accept a large group of people dressed in Qing Dynasty costumes speaking the lines of the Dream of the Red Chamber in a watery and lively way...
Who in the family understands! It feels a bit distorted...
Fortunately, she has finally gotten used to it now.
After all, it’s just a game of traveling through a book. Now that we’re here, we might as well just relax for a while.
Xianyu is a Buddhist by nature. In the real world, she is just an ordinary office worker who works day by day and does nothing. After traveling through time, she has no dreams of becoming a powerful figure or dominating the world.
Well, as the legitimate daughter of a high-ranking official in Beijing in this era, with a wealthy life, a very capable father and a brother who is even better than him, there seems to be nothing else for her to do except to eat and wait for death.
Apart from being a bit boring, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it.
System 003: ...Host, please be careful with your words. It is not appropriate to set up such a flag casually...
Xianyu has long been accustomed to the system's messy way of speaking - just ignore it out of habit. Anyway, this system doesn't seem to be of much use except for giving her some delicious recipes.
Ah, why does it feel even more boring when I think about it this way?
Fortunately, these young relatives of the Wang family are somewhat interesting.
There is no need to talk about Feng Jieer. She is a well-known straightforward person. As long as she is willing, there is no one in this world who she cannot please.
The old lady of the Wang family was no less terrible. Although she was a bit old, she was in good spirits, had a loud voice, a quick mind, and a bit of a childish temper. When she and Sister Feng started to argue with each other, they seemed to be evenly matched.
Therefore, in this long summer, the only thing that could bring some entertainment to Xianyu was the crosstalk performed by the grandparents and grandchildren from time to time... oh, sometimes it was even a one-man talk show.
They are truly a wonderful couple.
Watching Sister Feng and the old lady of the Wang family engaging in a real and fake dispute, and occasionally asking her to "judgment of justice", Xianyu had the feeling that she was being well loved - the feeling of being held in the palm of their hands and pampered.
Oh my, if this continues, I might get spoiled~
Although she said so, Xianyu's mood became more and more cheerful, and she even joined the "melee" between the two people with great interest, so she didn't notice that Feng Jieer and the old lady of the Wang family looked at her with a bit of strange eyes...
How should I put it? It's like the feeling of a person who has been hungry for a long time looking at a steamed bun, full of earnest love and desire.
Love is real love, but desire is also real desire...
Just when the love and desire between Sister Feng and Old Lady Wang reached its peak, a soft "ding" sound suddenly came from the void, and System 003 automatically logged in:
"Good afternoon, dear host. System 003 is at your service. Whose gossip do you want to hear today?"
