Going through the Red Mansions quickly means going against the system.

When Miaoyu came to Beijing this time, the first thing she wanted to do was to immediately go to Jia's house to visit Daiyu. When she heard that Daiyu had a cough, she couldn't help but want to fly over.

But how dare Chen Yejun let her out like this? After all, I had only settled down for three days. I saw that Ning and Rong's two houses were busy, so I sent a message to Rongguo's house.

Because it had just passed the Lantern Festival, everyone in the family looked tired. It happened that Yuanchun did not go home to visit relatives due to palace affairs, so although it was lively, it was not as good as in previous years.

In addition, because of the bad weather, drought and waterlogging in the north, the harvest was not good, and looting and looting became a common trend in the south. This made Wang Ren, Xing Xiuyan, Xue Baoqin, Li Wen and other children of this family unable to survive, so they all came together last year. He defected to Jia's house.

Now Miaoyu and Chen Yejun are also here, but they have only reached the post, so they tell the servants of the Jia family that they can't survive the New Year and they want to come to the Jia family to "win the autumn breeze".

Therefore, even though Daiyu was ill, she was still worried about her sister.

When the two of them started to renew their clan, they discovered that one of Miaoyu's aunts had married into the Lin family. Now that they were considered distant relatives, although they didn't really become sworn sworn brothers, the two did get closer.

Over the years, they exchanged letters and shared their experiences with each other, so Daiyu knew about her sister Miaoyu's pregnancy.

She also had a guess here, suspecting that Miaoyu was not doing well. She knew that the Xue family did not dare to go to the south to do business due to bandits and robberies, so she thought that her brother-in-law's family was a wealthy family and was more likely to be robbed.

As soon as she worried, her condition got worse.

Even so, she asked Zijuan and Xueyan to pack up some belongings, hoping to see if they could deliver them to Miaoyu.

After cleaning up, I realized how poor I really was.

She has a lot of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, but I heard that in troubled times these things are not as valuable as they used to be. Most of her daily expenses are subsidized by Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang. She didn't have any property, and she didn't even see a shop.

Before, she was too young and too naive to see this. Jia Mu was also afraid that she would be contaminated by these economic vulgarities at a young age and change her temperament, so she did not ask her to manage this.

In this way, she only reads and embroiders every day, and plays chess and gossips with her sisters, Baoyu, etc. in her free time, so she really doesn't care about these worldly things.

She and Baoyu are like this, or children raised by big families are taught this way. We only need to first cultivate their behavior as a person, and then teach them economics in the next step. Lest your eyes only see gains and losses and don't know what nobility is.

Therefore, she can't blame Jia's mother for looking down on Xue Baochai, and would rather like Xue Baoqin than promote her as her granddaughter-in-law.

But it's okay not to think about gold and silver in normal times, but now I have to help the Miaoyu family in an emergency. She calculated again and again, and found that she had unconsciously saved less than a hundred taels of silver in the past few years, and the rest had been spent as rewards or as a favor.

The money was saved because Jia's mother subsidized her and she couldn't spend it.

Afraid that he could not help Miaoyu, Daiyu would be in a worse mood, so when Baoyu came to see her, he saw that her coughing was even worse.

Knowing what Daiyu was thinking, he was stunned. He was worse than Daiyu and couldn't save a single penny in his hand.

He has never been short of money. The money drawer in his house is always open. When the little maids lose at cards, they go in and get some, and then return it when they have money.

Sometimes his money box is empty, and before the monthly payment is due, Jia Mu will find out and will immediately arrange for someone to fill it. So he never thought about it.

Miaoyu also didn't expect that the rumors about her would actually make Daiyu and others reflect. If they knew about it, they would definitely reward those who spread "rumors".

Therefore, without her knowing anything, Baoyu and Daiyu had already borrowed money from the maids and women. They worked hard to collect five hundred taels, intending to "relieve" Miaoyu.

Miaoyu's belly was already five or six months old at this time, and because she was having twins, she looked a little bigger.

Whose pregnant woman doesn’t stay at home to prepare for childbirth? Therefore, not only the servant and Bao Dai were suspicious, but also Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others were also suspicious.

Mrs.

She didn't blame Mrs. Xing for being mean. Her relatives Xing Xiuyan and her family came to seek refuge with her, but neither Jia She nor Jia Mu paid enough attention to her. But she didn't expect that there was Uncle Xing in their family, and the family had subsidized her many times. Uncle Xing couldn't stand up, so he added Mrs. Xing's cousin Xing Zhong and his family. No matter how good the relatives were, they couldn't be like this.

The servants of the Jia family said that Xing Zhong and the others were the spoilers of others. This word reached Mrs.

Seeing another oil bottle coming, she hurried to Jia Mu to watch the fun. I thought that if Jia Mu dared to help Miaoyu, she would definitely make a fuss to earn a subsidy for her cousin's family.

Jia's mother, Mrs. Wang and others are also worried. The family is in a bad year and they have been getting through it this year. Now if the Miaoyu family came to borrow money, they would have no choice but to go back and check the background of the dowry.

Therefore, as soon as Chen Yejun and Miaoyu entered Rongguo Mansion, no one welcomed them.

Now that Jia Zheng is away from home and Jia She has something to do, Jia's mother thinks that Chen Yejun is also the son of a family of friends, and now Daiyu is considered a relative of her own. Since he was a junior, he was called directly to the courtyard.

Because Miaoyu was married this time, she could no longer treat her like a child, so she asked Aunt Xue to accompany her to meet Miaoyu and his wife.

After all, Jia's mother was very fond of beautiful children. She saw that although Miaoyu was pregnant, she and Chen Yejun stood together like a pair. When she saw Huanxi, she quickly arranged for Miaoyu to sit in front of her and take a good look.

At this moment, Sister Feng happened to be unwell, so Li Wan was the only one in the room serving Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing and Aunt Xue.

"There are a lot of things going on at home now, and it's a bit chaotic. Don't think we didn't entertain you well."

Mother Jia touched Miaoyu's belly and asked about the situation. Now she didn't mind that she came to the door with a big belly.

When Chen Yejun saw the girls talking, he took the fruit plate from the table, peeled it, cut it into pieces, and handed it to Miaoyu when she wanted to drink tea.

Miaoyu looked back and saw it, and couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, because she had said before that she shouldn't drink tea and eat more fruits when she was pregnant, so he remembered it, and now she showed it off at Jia's house.

Jia Mu and others were stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing.

"Brother Lian is still outside. Go find him. Can we still eat your wife?"

Seeing that Chen Yejun was uncomfortable laughing at them, Jia's mother quickly arranged for Baoyu to take him to the front to find Jia Lian, so she could ask Daiyu to come see her sister.

When they were about to tease Miaoyu, they suddenly saw a little girl who had just grown her hair running over to report: "Old lady, something serious has happened. Something has happened to our Mistress Lian!"
