Baoyu Fights the Red Chamber

Chapter 44: Owing to the Emperor: Sister Feng's brain hurts

Mrs. Wang has already regarded her own children as little adults, and Baoyu knew about the plan of pretending to be poor. The big girl is the right one. She used to eat in the room, so big brother Zhen should come out. I'll go to Lian's second brother to pick a few words and let him talk about it. That's it, why don't you combine the autumn pattern with the painting's body contract? Let her take it for herself, she is older than Lan'er, it's time for her daughter's family to be a member of the council, so good or bad has nothing to do with us."

Mrs. Wang was a little bit reluctant. Qiuwen was originally going to be Baoyu Tongfang, so she looked like a servant and called Da En'en.Thinking for a moment, she didn't want to lose face to her baby, and sighed: "The identity of the painting is in the East Mansion, and Xichun brought a few servants with me when she came to our house. Everything the old lady says is counted in her room. Now it’s just a sentence! In the future, I’ll be in the office, a room full of maids and women, and I’m thinking of talking to Grandma You, if she wants Qiu Wen , then give it."

Bao Yuxin's words are given to Youshi, and I am busy in vain.So he said with a smile: "My sister-in-law is separated from each other after all. Let's see, my wife. Second brother Lian is good-looking, cheap, and good-looking! There is only one, and she can handle Xichun's affairs by herself. Is it possible that my wife will even Her whole life has been taken care of? Grandma You didn't like to take care of her, so why bother my wife? It's thankless."

Mrs. Wang said unhappily: "Take it as if I have nothing to do! It turned out that the old lady put aside half of her control, and I am actually standing up for Xichun to seek justice from the East Mansion! Forget it, and let you go find her brother."

Baoyu shook her arm: "This kind of embarrassment was caused by my son and Lian's second brother failing to do their errands. How can I bother my wife? If you want me to say move it out, I look at it coldly and make the girl poor They don’t have any children, and the wife will take care of them, so there is no need to reduce the number of people now. Let’s wait for half a month, I will order Qingwen to be so hot~ Teach Qiaoer and the others, there will be two in one room, I think How dare they not be able to afford the work of a third-class maid! I don’t need to add people to my house, and the second-class and first-class can’t do rough work? It’s against them! The monthly money reduction also starts from my house. Half off! Madam, don’t worry, as long as I don’t move them for three years, the number of people in the house will not increase or decrease, and I will have my own way to keep them from gossiping.”

Mrs. Wang's eyes are tangled, there are many sons who like to hang out in Neiwei.

The fake stone winked at him and quickly expressed his filial piety: "My son knows, but I am not afraid of the man who manages the inner house to make people laugh! Who dares to gossip against the south wall, 'How can you sweep the world if you don't sweep a house'? My son wants to respect the old man and his wife , don't allow that little hoof to have any crooked thoughts, and it's the same when you marry a daughter-in-law, don't play with your mind, and be sincere and filial to your wife!"

Mrs. Wang has this hot stamp in her heart. Although "filial piety is greater than the sky", after a man marries a daughter-in-law, who doesn't have other thoughts?Honoring one's parents is to put it in front of others.It's not good to be a husband like my own son, but it's all good to be a son!

But it is said that a certain one got Qiu Wen's body deed, excitedly ran to Ou Xiangxie, ordered to enter the painting, and locked the door together with Xiaohong and Sheyue, leaving Qiu Wen to talk in the room.

He took out a fifty-liang silver bill with a mysterious face, took off the pouch around his waist, poured out the gold and silver curfews inside, and said, "These are about a hundred taels. Twenty liang of silver outside is enough for a family of five or six to feed and clothe for a year. We don’t dare to count on the grandeur of our family, and the second brother wants to see how long the fourth sister can live.” Then he said to Qiu Wen: “You help with the calculations, the monthly money is for food and drink Dressing is all in it, it’s like living alone, if you don’t know how to do it, ask the third girl, she doesn’t know what to ask.” Then she straightened her chest: “Don’t be afraid of making mistakes, and don’t be afraid of others gossip , look at me, how many gossips I have attracted, and I live my life by myself, do you understand?"

Xichun has no interest in the housekeeper, but for the first time, Kai Tian Pi Di seemed to be pretending to be a housekeeper, his face was full of excitement, and he immediately sent Qiu Wen to invite Tan Chun over.

Fake Stone saw that Qiu Wen had left, so he ran to the door to have a look, then closed the door and ran back, with a sneaky look on his face, he said: "Fourth sister, second brother, I beg you to do me a favor, will you help?"

Xichun clenches her fists: "It's okay! How many fans do you want?" (A certain unscrupulous stuff exploits child labor, takes Xichun's fan paintings and asks the maids to process them, and then let Jin Rong do it, not to mention earning a lot of money, but rewarding people earn a few pockets)

A certain child worker shook his head when he heard the words of the child worker, took out Qiuwen's body deed to Xichun for a look, and said in a low voice: "If anyone asks, you can say that Qiuwen's body deed is in your hands. Is it okay?"

Xichun nodded confusedly: "She originally belonged to the second brother, because she can draw and has something to say to me, so I kept her."

Baoyu shook her head: "From now on, she is yours, but the body deed document is in the hands of the second brother, and this matter must not be known."

Xichun rolled her eyes and scratched her face with her finger: "No shame! I never tell anyone that I only treat her as my sister-in-law."

Baoyu had a headache, and said with a dry smile: "What nonsense, girl, you can't tell her about this! I will tell her that her body is in your hands."

When Tanchun came over for a while, the fake stone couldn't help but teach him how to live, and everyone who said it nodded his head frequently.

Seeing that it was almost time to make an appointment with Lian Er, a certain one said goodbye.Walking out of the hall, he felt a little emotional. Originally, he didn't think much of Qiuwen, so it was fine to give the body deed to Xichun, but if Xichun didn't care about anything like the original book, and let her go easily, he would Bai lost a man who could read the account books, and there were not many women who could read and write in ancient times.From the current point of view, Xichun is different from the original book, she is not like Daiyu, she is not a threat to herself, why not help if you can.

Back in Baoxia, Jia Lian was already waiting for him.Lian Er learned from Sister Feng's mouth that the family owed the imperial silver, and Feng Lazi made a lot of bitter words, which made his face look like a bitter melon.

Baoyu reassured him, and pointed to Rongqingtang: "Do you need to worry? That one building cost more than 32 yuan. Just think about it, this is a great thing. Our family raises so many greedy and lazy servants. No. Take this opportunity to clean up, you wouldn't be particularly happy to raise a bunch of blood-sucking locusts, would you?"

Jia Lian laughed, he has always taken care of common affairs, so he knows that although 32 taels of silver is painful to the Rong Mansion, it will not hurt his muscles and bones. After getting used to it, Baoyu's anger also came up because of being singled out by Baoyu. How can there be a more decent servant than the master? This is to make him look good as an heir!That is to say, he couldn't be as unscrupulous as Baoyu, otherwise he ransacked the houses one by one, and 32 taels would be easily released.

The two murmured together, and when it was finalized, Baoyu talked about Xichun, claiming that he was in charge of the younger sister, and asked Jia Lian to say hello to Jia Zhen, so as not to be in trouble with Mrs. Wang.

Jia Lian's eyeballs were gloomy, and he never believed that Xiao Wangba would be so kind as to engage in a loss-making business. Yingchun was such a poor concubine that her son-in-law would be chasing after her. The mother didn't care about throwing it away, so what face would they have to criticize Xichun's marriage in the future?It's a huge profit, it's a fool not to do it!

So Lian Er Tao Tao said that he is also a cousin, and he should share the burden with Baoyu from the perspective of emotion and reason.

Baoyu was happy to be shared, and with a reluctance on his face, he said that if he hadn't been able to get along with Jia Zhen, he would have nothing to do with Lian Er.

Lian said sternly: "This is the network! Don't even think about it, not only now you have to talk to Brother Zhen, but when the fourth sister discusses marriage, Brother Zhen will also have to make the decision!"

Not to mention how one of the two is intriguing, at this moment, Sister Feng is lying in her room sick, really sick, so angry that her brain hurts!

She was raised as a boy since she was a child, so she doesn't care about debts, who doesn't owe it?The law does not blame the public, on the contrary, whoever will make the public angry.But my aunt settled the accounts with her, and it really made her vomit three liters of blood——

There is an old saying that a husband dies and a son obeys his son, why is it not the elder but the old lady who insists on everything in the Rong Mansion?Because the Eldest Master has left too many handles in the hands of the old lady, if he dares to be unfilial, the two masters of the Shi family can crush him to death casually!If the old lady had gone, how could the Shijia meddle in the affairs of the Rong Mansion?Wang's daughter's only backer, Wang Ziteng, will retire soon, and whoever holds the key to the ancestral treasury will be able to use it.When Zu Yin was exhausted, it was her turn to get the dowry of Lian's second grandma. For a wife and grandma who has no natal family influence, the dowry is too much to be ignorant by her husband's family!

Sister Feng wants to cry but has no tears: Now that my second uncle is still in power, I feel helpless against Jia She and his son, so there will be no other way?

The more she thought about it, the more she hated her, she clenched her bare hands and beat them down, Ping'er was so frightened that she quickly persuaded: "Grandma calm down, beat your painful hands carefully! The second master didn't go out to drink, but went to Baoyu's and talked in the room."

"Baoyu?!" Sister Feng suddenly yelled angrily, and then gave a wry smile. A woman must have a son. Raising a good son is better than anything else. The second aunt can give birth to many children. If one can read, another stronger one will come!

She made up her mind and paid back the money she owed!It's none of her business to attract public anger, that's for men!At that time, Jia She and his son will have to point to the Wang family. Let them spend a few years of comfortable life and give birth to a son as soon as possible.If you have money and are afraid of being a bird, you really can't go to Wen Tiangu and sue Jia She and his son for extermination~ Lun killed his grandson and son!

Sister Feng is a good housekeeper, and the Rongfu will be hers in the future. Baoyu firmly believes that she will fire people and not leave the good ones behind, so she can take Jialan Jiajun to school with great confidence.

The house is the same as before, Jia Rui is still learning the bow and horse and hasn't come back, Jin Rong is still not doing business on his behalf, it is said that his widowed mother's plan is to wait for the son to grow up, and ask Lian's second grandma for an errand, like running away How can he allow him to be a businessman who has worked so hard and is likely to spend nothing when he helps with harvesting land and renting the fields.In addition, there are a few unfamiliar faces in the school. One of them is Jia Lin, who is sixteen years old, and Baoyu has to call him brother.

Jia Lin is a side branch of the Ning family, that is, the son of the concubine. His family background was very bad. .Last year, Jia Lin passed the county examination. He had gained some dignity in the clan, but he became a transparent person after a certain fraudster's dazzling score of breaking two tests in a row.

As soon as Jin Rong introduced him, Baoyu thought of this elder brother, and seeing that his brows and eyes were quite flexible, he was quite enthusiastic about family affairs, so he couldn't help asking about his teacher.Jia Lin told Zhiye that there was something wrong with the teacher's family. Afraid of delaying his homework, he came to the private school, and then asked Uncle Lin, but the question was too detailed.

Baoyu was suspicious, and after a series of questions, he found that Mrs. Wang had done something stupid: she used Jia Lin's passing the county test as an excuse, and took their mother and son to visit Jia's mother. Lin unfortunately falls in lovesickness!

Who is Jia's mother, she must have seen through Mrs. Wang's purpose.Baoyu is very speechless, the fake mother really dares to think and do it, the daughter of a third-rank official, and her son is married, Jia Lin?Mother Jia didn't raise her crutches and beat her violently, which is a good way of self-cultivation.

Look at Brother Acacia in front of you, a certain one finally suffered from the disease of the holy father, and told him: "My Uncle Lin has something to say, Cousin Lin doesn't talk about marriage until she reaches Jiji."—Your boy was 22 at the time, and wanted to become like Jia Rui. Wang Laowu?

Unexpectedly, Jia Lin's face was full of joy, and he disappeared after a while. It can be seen that the "Ye Shi's family has something to do" is all nonsense, and he ran to the private school just to find out about him.That's all, if you ask what love is in the world, you can call an idiot an idiot!

No matter how much it is, there are not just one or two people who are unlucky for love in the world. He still has a lot of things to do, such as arranging Yinquan to do odd jobs in the school, meeting Xiaohong's two younger brothers, and so on.

Xiaohong's younger brother is only five years old, at most he will be a young child to play with the young master, a certain utilitarian doesn't want it, so he only arranges the 12-year-old strong boy to be a servant in Yinquan, and he turns his head to say hello to Mother Jia, To say that Zhuang'er is idle is also idle, and the distant relatives of Lian's second brother's best friend cannot live without a servant.The body deed is not demanded, and it is still unknown whether the strong man can do it.

But it is said that the rumors in Rongfu are getting tighter, and it is rumored inside and outside that the whole family has to save money in order to pay off the debts, but the servants did not fire a few, and they were fined monthly money if they didn't move.Baoyu knew that these months' money had fallen into Sister Feng's hands, so she turned around and used it to lend usury, saying that Sister Feng put up the usury because of the increasingly difficult livelihood of Rongfu. Money, Mrs. Wang is watching. I didn’t see that in the original book, when Sister Lin first entered the mansion, Mrs. Wang asked Sister Feng: "Have you let go of the monthly money?" It was because she was afraid that her niece would be too unscrupulous and affect her good reputation.

He couldn't help but feel depressed. He originally wanted to kill more birds to clean up the inner house, but it seemed hopeless!

One day, he was worrying about gain and loss in school, and Jia Zheng's elder brother came along and told him to go to Jia Mu's room...

The author has something to say: My old lady has washed away her pretense to pay off her debts, and you still want monthly money?
