The Overlord of the Red Mansion

Chapter 100 Closeness
Jia Yuanchun and Jia Yingchun went to bed together.

The two were cousins, and had never spoken much to each other since they were little. Whenever they met, they were always accompanied by their other younger sisters, and they basically had no time to be alone together.

Jia Yuanchun is the legitimate daughter and the eldest sister of the Rong family.

Not to mention Jia Yingchun, even Wang Xifeng and Li Wan can't compare to her.

Now the two of them were sleeping in the same bed, and they were not very familiar with each other, so there was not much to talk about after they went to bed.

After a moment of silence, Jia Yuanchun asked, "Yingchun, are you asleep?"

Jia Yingchun did not pretend to be asleep and said softly, "Not yet, sister."

Jia Yuanchun sighed and said, "I really can't sleep after something like this happened. Although the master is a bit lustful, he is a good man. I have known him for many years. He is a good man who is responsible and knows how to work hard."

No matter what Jia Rong is like, he is Jia Yuanchun's only man.

He is also responsible for his family, and especially when compared with the men in the Jia family, he appears to be a good man.

Jia Yuanchun didn't know many men, including men in the Jia family, relatives of both her parents, and some important figures in the city.

These men gave Jia Yuanchun a very bad impression, especially compared with Jia Rong's attitude towards his family, which made her own men even more precious.

Jia Yingchun grew up listening to Jia Rong's stories, and she was always able to see Jia Rong at key moments in her growth over the years.

"Don't worry, sister. I'm fine. I'm willing to do this."

Jia Yingchun took the initiative to express her thoughts.

Girls are not all heartless and desireless wooden people. Their teenage years are the time when they begin to have an ignorant curiosity about the opposite sex.

The daughters of large families are used for marriage arrangements, and marrying into a good family is the greatest help to their family.

Now that my family is broken up, it is a blessing to be able to marry into a wealthy family as a concubine.

Jia Yuanchun was shocked and asked quickly, "When did you and the master do that?"

With Wang Xifeng's previous experience, Jia Yuanchun believed that Yingchun had been involved with Jia Rong for a long time.

Although it is said that family members trust each other, that is just a verbal statement. When it was discovered that Yingchun's maid and the servant had an affair, everyone naturally suspected Jia Yingchun first when such a shameless thing happened!

Jia Yingchun said shyly: "I knew there was this rebellious and unruly brother in the East Palace when I was a few years old. At first I thought he was a vicious man, but after meeting him, I realized he was a good man."

"If I were to say when I fell in love with him, it should be when my brother-in-law passed the imperial examination. He approached us to toast and got to know us. That's when I started to regard Xichun's nephew, my brother-in-law, as a man."

Jia Yuanchun quickly calculated the time.

"You were just ten years old at that time."

Jia Yingchun said shyly: "Well, I didn't talk to my brother-in-law at that time. We saw each other often later, but we didn't say much. My brother-in-law treated me very well, better than my parents and brother."

Jia Yuanchun was relieved to see that the little girl was still talking like a little girl and was not like Wang Xifeng who had been having an affair for a long time.

"You will be sixteen next year, and I will be twenty-four next year, so the difference in age is not much."

"kindness."

Jia Yingchun thought the same, and added, "I'm just afraid that my father has a bad reputation, my brother is also a lecher, and even the maids are the same. I'm afraid that my brother-in-law will also think I'm that kind of person."

Jia Yuanchun was speechless when she heard this. Your brother-in-law...

"I promise you, the master won't mind it." Jia Yuanchun sighed in her heart, and then said, "The master doesn't like women who are always shy and follow the rules in bed. I will teach you this later. Don't tell Tanchun, Xichun and Miss Shi about what happened today."

Jia Yingchun said quickly: "Okay, I won't tell anyone."

Seeing how obedient she was, Jia Yuanchun quickly understood why she was so obedient yet cowardly.

"Alas, you lost your mother early, your father is not a good person, and the others either ignored you or were partial to you and forgot about you. After all, the master is the only one who treats you well."

Jia Yuanchun didn't want to say more. "Go to sleep. This is your home from now on. The master and sister will help you if you have any problems. There are also many girls and grandmothers in the garden who are easy to talk to. You don't have to worry about anything in your life."

Jia Yingchun and Jia Yuanchun lay together with smiles on their faces.

"That's what my sister said. I'm going to bed first. Sister, go to bed early too."

"Okay." Jia Yuanchun also went to bed early. There was nothing to worry about. It was just a bunch of small things. The next day, Jia Yuanchun took the children to have dinner with Jia Yingchun.

Jia Yuanchun reached out and grabbed the disobedient child, and gave him a lecture with a serious face.

"You only know how to be naughty and bully your brother! You are already six years old and still don't know what's going on. In two years, I will let you live out on your own!"

Jia Ben's mother grabbed his hand and said angrily, "The big garden next door is mine. I'm going to live there from now on! Clean it up for me, and I'll go there right away!"

When Jia Yuanchun saw that her son called her "Mother" with his surname, she got so angry that she dragged him into the inner room and spanked him.

Jia Ben soon burst into tears, and neither the maid nor Yingchun could persuade Jia Yuanchun to stop. His sons and daughters all obediently focused on eating.

"What's going on here?"

Mrs. Wang came in when she heard the crying, and the maids did not stop her.

Qin Keqing's son quickly said, "Mother, the lady is here."

Jia Yuanchun thought it was Youshi, but when she came out she saw it was her own mother. However, this name was not wrong.

It is true that she was called Madam, but the address for Youshi should be "the eldest Madam".

In the past, Youshi was addressed as Madam, and since there was only one Madam, there was no need to add a big "Madam" to the title.

Jia Ben was still crying in the room. Jia Yuanchun said coldly, "Ignore him. It will be too late if we don't teach this kid a lesson!"

Mrs. Wang did not interfere with her daughter's teaching of the child. After sitting down with Jia Yuanchun, she asked, "Have you dealt with Yingchun's matter?"

Jia Yuanchun said calmly, "It's been handled. The master has already decided to let her stay. She slept here with me yesterday. We don't need to worry about what's going on outside. The master will definitely handle it."

How could Mrs. Wang not understand what he meant? Seeing that the matter was settled, she could only nod and say, "That's good."

Jia Yuanchun looked at Mrs. Wang again, "Is everything OK over there?"

Mrs. Wang sighed and said, "Everything else is fine, except that Baoyu can't bear to leave Miss Lin. When he found out that Miss Lin left without saying goodbye, he jumped around in the house and cried bitterly."

Jia Yuanchun was so angry that her heart ached. She said coldly, "Don't bother with him!"

This has happened more than once or twice over the years, and the sibling relationship is almost exhausted.

Mrs. Wang didn't want to continue talking about Jia Baoyu.

"Your sister-in-law told me that she wanted to bring Lan'er to study here, and asked me to ask you what you think."

Jia Yuanchun knew very well what kind of person Jia Rong was, and she also knew that Mrs. Wang should know this.

"Why did she come in? She knows the situation here, and you know it too. Why are you telling me this?"

Jia Yuanchun thinks that Li Wan is such a smart person, how could she not see what kind of person Jia Rong is? Do you think it’s okay for him to come?
Mrs. Wang knew all this, but she still agreed to Li Wan's request?

Mrs. Wang said with a bitter face, "She knows, and I know, but what good is there now? She can't go back home, and our family is full of problems. We are old and not afraid of these, but there are thieves in the house all the time, and there are problems everywhere. She has lived here before, so she can naturally tell the good from the bad."

"Mr. Rong has only had a few people in the past six or seven years. Your sister-in-law is not young anymore, so it won't be a problem. If Brother Lang leaves the West Palace in the future, he will be somewhat ashamed. The people who come in and out of the East Palace are all royal relatives and dignitaries, which will be better for Brother Rong's future."

"No matter what, Lang'er is the future of the Rong family."

Jia Yuanchun immediately understood what her mother was thinking.

Even if Li Wan slept with Jia Rong, Jia Lan was still Jia Zhu's child and the legitimate grandson of the Rong family.

Li Wan knew very well what kind of person Jia Rong was, but she also had to make a choice. For the sake of her child's future, she was willing to take a gamble that Jia Rong would look down on her.

After thinking for more than ten seconds, Jia Yuanchun went to find Jia Rong with Mrs. Wang to discuss the matter.

When Jia Rong heard the purpose of Jia Yuanchun's visit, he said directly: "Tanchun can come. After all, she calls me brother-in-law. I can afford her food, clothing, housing, transportation and expenses. Forget about Li Wan. I have only spoken a few words to her. It would be awkward to meet her and I don't know what to say. We don't have much friendship if we don't meet. Besides, it's not appropriate for an orphan and a widow to live in my house."

Jia Rong was very dissatisfied with Li Wan and could not accept this woman with a son coming to take advantage of him.

Jia Lan has no feelings for the Jia family, and his relationship with Jia Rong is very cold. Jia Rong does not expect Jia Lan to work for him. He has so many sons but he doesn't expect that, so how can he expect that from this widow's son?
Besides, Rong Mansion will belong to his son in the future, so Jia Lan should go home and farm.
