Chapter 227: Red Mansion Lady Xing 47
Jia She couldn't help but sigh: "Xiao San, you have really grown up!"
Xing Yuling walked forward and hugged her son tightly. She felt her son's warmth and strength, and her heart was filled with comfort.
Jia Ying smiled and comforted his mother, saying, "Mom, I'm back." Xing Yuling gently patted her son's back, her eyes full of love.
Jia She walked up to his son and looked at him carefully. He nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Good boy, you are really a handsome man now!"
Jia Ying smiled modestly to express his gratitude for his father's compliment.
At this time, Jia Baoyu hurried over and saw a stunning young man. This young man was tall and slender, elegant, with a faint smile on his face, and he held his hand tightly like a lunatic.
"Brother Ying, you're back! Why don't you come and sit with me?" Jia Baoyu said anxiously, despite the servants' attempts to stop him.
Jia Ying struggled his arms helplessly. Before he left home, he rarely saw Jia Baoyu, and his mother also asked him to stay away from people from the second wife's house.
Xing Yuling was anxious when she saw this, and secretly complained in her heart: Why did Baoyu come here? She quickly winked at Jia She, hoping that he would stand up and say a few words.
"Master, this fake stone is targeting the luck and merit of the young master."
Suddenly the spirit of the weapon sent her a message, which scared her.
"A spiritual jade that has become useless should not have the ability to absorb luck, right?" Xing Yuling asked the spirit of the jade in her sea of consciousness worriedly.
"The fake stone no longer has any immortal spirit in it. It has been corrupted by the evil spirits of the mortal world and has become a demon. It has no energy to absorb and is targeting you instinctively."
This stone, which once shone with a strange light, has now been corroded by the evil spirits of the mortal world and has lost its original brilliance and power. It is no longer the desirable treasure, but a demon.
"Master, we must find a way to cut off his energy absorption, so that he will gradually become weaker and die. We must not let Fairy Jinghuan and others notice our actions!" The spirit of the weapon reminded nervously. It knew very well that the background of the people behind Jia Baoyu was complicated, and there were gods and goblins in this world, so the situation should not be underestimated.
Xing Yuling understood this and didn't want her son to have any contact with Jia Baoyu, so she winked at Jia She.
Jia She was also somewhat dissatisfied with Jia Baoyu in his heart, but he still coughed lightly a few times, trying to attract Jia Baoyu's attention.
Sure enough, when Jia Baoyu heard the cough, he immediately raised his head and his eyes met Jia She's. Jia Baoyu showed a trace of timidity on his face, and his voice was as small as a mosquito: "Uncle, you are here too..." He lowered his head, as if he didn't dare to look directly into Jia She's eyes.
"Why didn't you go to the clan school today?"
"I...I..." Jia Baoyu was speechless and stammered.
"If you don't go to school, tell your father"
Jia Baoyu was terrified when he heard that his uncle was going to tell his father. The smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a face full of fear. He knew that if his father knew about his behavior, he would definitely be severely punished. Thinking of this, Jia Baoyu was extremely scared and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Uncle, please don't tell my father!" Jia Baoyu said in a trembling voice, "I know I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again..." As he spoke, he looked at his uncle with pleading eyes, hoping to get his forgiveness.
He quickly bowed to his uncle, then turned around and ran out the door, shouting as he ran: "Uncle, I have something else to do, I'll go first!" After that, he left without looking back.
By the time Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng heard the news and rushed over, they had already returned to their main residence.
"It's all your fault!" Wang Xifeng's face was gloomy and she twisted Jia Lian's waist fiercely.
"You can't blame me for this." Jia Lian's mouth twitched in pain and he dared not move.
“I’ve been out doing business these days.”
Wang Xifeng glared at him without mercy.
"Hurry back"
Xing Yuling took her son into the mansion and asked him about his experiences and life outside. He answered them one by one to reassure his parents.
"Someone has been cleaning your yard. Go change your clothes and wash up first, and then we will go to pay our respects to the old lady together in the evening." Xing Yuling was afraid that her son would be tired from the journey, so she took the time to let him go back and rest.
Just then, Jia Lian and his wife arrived.
"Long time no see, third brother." Jia Lian patted Jia Ying's shoulder enthusiastically.
"Second brother, second sister-in-law." Jia Ying bent down when he saw that it was his second brother and sister-in-law.
"Okay, your third brother just came back and hasn't rested yet. Let's talk as a family in the evening." Jia She impatiently sent away the couple who were not clear-headed and had short-sighted eyes.
Jia Lian smiled with a stiff face.
"Then I won't disturb my third brother's rest. We can chat together in the evening."
Wang Xifeng's face gradually became unsightly. She suppressed her temper, bowed to her parents-in-law, and took Jia Lian back.
Xing Yuling looked at the couple and sighed.
"You, the second brother, are being suppressed by Wang's family."
"Mother, as long as my second brother doesn't get confused, that's enough." Jia Ying also understood his second brother's temper.
Jia Ying returned to his courtyard, changed his clothes, and went to pay his respects to Jia's mother. When Jia's mother saw Jia Ying, she said a few words in a low mood and sent him away. Afterwards, the whole family gathered together for dinner, and everyone talked and laughed during the meal. After dinner, Jia Ying chatted with Jia Lian, who complained to him that his status with Wang Xifeng was getting lower and lower, and that she was a tigress. Jia Ying comforted him and asked him to be more patient.
Wang Xifeng listened to the noise coming from next door, her face turned red like a ripe apple, her heart was filled with shyness and embarrassment. Seeing this, everyone started to tease her, which made her even more embarrassed. She lowered her head, trying to hide her shyness, but her heart could not calm down, and she planned to teach him a lesson when she returned home that night.
Xing Yuling raised her head slightly and looked at Jia's mother. Her hands and feet were shaking constantly, as if she had lost control. Her body became weak and it seemed that she had difficulty even standing. However, under the careful service of the maids, Jia's mother put on a full momentum, as if to show everyone her majesty and dignity as the wife of the Duke of Rongguo Mansion. Her eyes were firm and powerful, revealing an unquestionable sense of authority. Despite her poor physical condition, she still tried to maintain her dignity.
Xing Yuling secretly shook her head, thinking that he was still trying to be strong even though he was already in a desperate situation.
Grandmother Jia looked at the lively scene in front of her, but she was filled with hatred. She had thought that her body was still strong and she should be able to continue to enjoy decades of wealth and prosperity. But she did not expect that it had come to this point, which made her feel extremely regretful and unwilling.
"Grandma, I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm so glad to see you in good health and spirits. May you always be healthy, live long, be happy and worry-free!" Jia Ying lied with his eyes open and stood up to toast Grandmother Jia with a glass of wine.
"Good grandson, you are thoughtful!" Grandmother Jia had a sneer on her face, and her tone became a little cold. She thought to herself, as expected, the first house is full of debt collectors.
Xing Yuling covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled.
