The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

Chapter 277

"Ha ha!"

Grandmother Jia smiled brightly and turned to a maidservant beside her with a few freckles on her face and said,

"Yuanyang, please take my American ginseng from the West to Fengge'er's hospital!"

Wang Xifeng stood up quickly and said in an exaggerated manner,

"Oh! In that case, I won't be polite to the old lady."

"I've heard that Western ginseng is even more nutritious than our Daqian wild ginseng. I've been wanting to ask the old lady for one!"

"I never thought that the old lady would be so kind as to save me a lot of trouble!"

Wang Xifeng's words immediately made Lady Jia in the hall burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, you little rascal, you actually dared to use an old lady like me as a raft!"

The young ladies also covered their mouths and giggled. Even Mrs. Wang turned the Buddhist beads in her hand a little slower, and nodded slightly with a smile on her face.

After laughing, Jia Mu suddenly looked around and asked,

"Huh? Why can't I see my precious grandson Baoyu?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Xifeng still kept a smile on her face and slowly stepped aside to sit down.

Seeing this, Grandmother Jia turned to look at Lady Wang.

"This……"

Mrs. Wang forced a smile and clenched the Buddhist beads in her hand.

He lowered his eyes for a moment, then looked up at Lady Jia and smiled gently,

"Let the old lady know that Baoyu has been assigned homework by the master these two days. I'm afraid he is memorizing the lessons in the study right now!"

Grandmother Jia shook her head.

"Hey, the children are still young, why should they memorize books? They will all become nerds by then."

Mrs. Wang smiled and nodded.

"The old lady is right! My daughter-in-law has taken note of it!"

At this moment, Wang Xifeng's maid Ping'er suddenly walked in quickly with a panicked look on her face.

Everyone in the hall looked at Ping'er.

Grandmother Jia saw this, but she just picked up the ginseng tea on the table and started to sip it.

After Ping'er entered the hall, she quickly walked behind Wang Xifeng and leaned over to whisper a few words in her ear.

After hearing this, Wang Xifeng turned her head and looked at Ping'er in surprise.

"What? But really?"

Ping'er panted slightly and nodded seriously.

"The news has been confirmed. Now the West Mansion is packing up all the festive items!"

Wang Xifeng frowned and thought for a while, then waved to Ping'er, who nodded and left.

Grandmother Jia looked at Wang Xifeng and asked,

"Brother Feng, what happened outside?"

Seeing that Lady Jia and all the eyes in the hall were on him,

Wang Xifeng forced a smile on her face.

"Uh, haha, nothing, nothing!"

"Old lady, it's getting late. How about I arrange for someone to prepare some midnight snacks for you?"

Grandmother Jia took the teacup away from her hand, and Yuanyang hurriedly bent down to take the teacup and put it on the table.

Grandmother Jia sighed softly and looked at Wang Xifeng with a slightly frown.

"Hey! Tell me! I heard there's been a commotion at the court these past few days over a group of bandits, and the men in our two prefectures can't find peace either."

"If anything happens in this house, you guys should pay more attention and take care of it! Don't always let the men outside worry about it."

Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Wang Xifeng and others all bowed slightly.

"Yes, old lady!"

Grandmother Jia slowly sat up straight and looked at Wang Xifeng.

Feeling the unquestionable gaze of Lady Jia, Wang Xifeng thought for a moment, then straightened her expression and said solemnly to Lady Jia,

"Madam, the servants just received news from the West Mansion. There was a fire at the Qin Mansion, and Rong'er's wife-to-be is gone!"

"what?!"

Everyone gasped in surprise, and the sisters Yingchun and Tanchun covered their mouths in shock.

Sensing a commotion, Grandmother Jia frowned and coughed twice.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

All the commotion in the hall suddenly disappeared.

Grandmother Jia took a deep breath and sighed softly.

"Alas! What a horrible thing! Who could have imagined that something like this would happen at this juncture?"

After a moment's thought, Grandmother Jia looked at Wang Xifeng and said,

"After this stool incident, things are also in a mess over in the East Palace. Go over there tomorrow to help out. After all, we are all family, and we can't let outsiders make a fool of our Jia family!"
