Baoyu Fights the Red Chamber

Chapter 5, Out of the Backyard: Charming and Nanny Li

Baoyu's nest is in Mrs. Wang's bedroom, which is different from the simple main room where guests are treated. It is full of bright red and green. There are four sets of mahogany footrests under the kang, and four mahogany chairs along the west wall are covered with silver and red floral chairs. On the top, there are incense tripods, incense boxes, beauty goblets, etc., which are either red or green, and red and emerald. Flowers and plants are dripping, and there is no such excitement in the little girl's room.

Mrs. Wang hasn't come back yet, and she didn't dare to touch the furnishings in the room, only the maids and women changed into plain clothes - Bu Lao Qiu Wen, She Yue went back to Jia Mu's side to rummaged through the boxes, and prepared them here.The high-ranking and wealthy families have prepared for these things. If they don’t prepare for their own family, they have to prepare for the future. Not to mention that there will be no advance notice before today’s war. There are so many concubines in the royal family. , have to change clothes and decorations.

The attacker should guard Baoyu and change his shirt at the end.When the charming came, she went to the cubicle, leaving Nanny Li to stand firm.

Baoyu raised her eyes and looked at her. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a middle-upper appearance and a peaceful face. She looked quite comfortable, and she couldn't find it among the crowd. No wonder she didn't notice it before.

The charming woman also speaks slowly, but clearly.According to her report: Miss Lin met the old lady first, and entered the mansion in a sedan chair from the west corner gate of Rong Mansion.After confirming their relatives with the women in the backyard, Mrs. Xing took her to the East Courtyard where the Dafang lived in a green oil truck pulled by tamed mules, entered the Heiyou Gate of the General's Mansion, and got off in front of the Yimen Gate.After staying for about two sticks of incense, Mrs. Xing sent Miss Lin to Yimen, and watched the Qingyou car go out of the gate before returning.Miss Lin entered the Rong Mansion from the west corner gate, and was led by the nuns through the hall into the main hall of the Rongxi Hall, and then to the courtyard with the second room on the east to meet the master and wife.The master went to fast, and the wife talked with her.Then the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Youshi in Ningfu came to visit. After they left, the wife said that the old lady was about to deliver dinner, and asked the nuns to send Miss Lin there.

This process is similar to that in the original novel, except that Mrs. Wang's indifference is more evident on her face, which further highlights Mrs. Xing's courtesy to the daughter of the Lin family—it turns out that she is from the main entrance, from the junior to the elder's family, and Jia She's grade is higher than that of Lin Ruhai. Lin Daiyu was supposed to enter the General's Mansion through the side door, but Mrs. Xing went too far.

Fake Shitou frowned slightly. The original book only wrote that Mrs. Xing treated Daiyu with courtesy when she first met Daiyu, but did not mention the reasons behind it.When Daiyu went to the big room, Jia Amnesty asked his servants to come and answer, claiming that "they have not been well for the past few days, and we feel sad when we see the girl, and we can't bear to see each other for the time being", without showing his face.Mrs. Xing reluctantly kept Daiyu for dinner. Daiyu said she wanted to see her second uncle and thanked her, so she sat down for a while and then left.

Conclusion: What Mrs. Xing did was not Jia She's order.

It is said that Mrs. Xing is an uninitiated person, but Jia She's ordered her to obey. Why is she so different from her husband this time?Could it be that she has an eyeliner by Mrs. Wang's side and learned what Jia Zheng said?

So he asked: "What kind of clothes does the eldest lady wear?"

Charming blinked her eyes: "It should be ordinary clothes, I met Wang Baoshan's family just now, she didn't wear plain clothes."

"Wang Baoshan's family" is Mrs. Xing's accompanying room. She didn't change plain clothes, which means that the eldest house has not changed from Mrs. Xing to plain clothes. It means that Mrs. Xing is not aware of Jia Zheng's order, and Mrs. Wang does not have her eyeliner. .

Baoyu rolled her eyes, thinking that maybe Mrs. Xing's move had no deep meaning, but to please the old lady, or she didn't even have this idea, just because Mrs. Wang didn't like Lin Daiyu, she was extra polite.

He decided to put this question aside, even if Mrs. Xing has a heart full of treasures, and she has an incompetent and promiscuous husband, and her natal family has no help, what can she do?

So he turned his attention to Mei Ren and asked about her family's situation.Mei Ren seemed reluctant to tell, and only said that there was no one in the house, and it was her aunt who begged the old lady, who kindly spared her money and said that she would let her out when the attacker got her hands on it.

Baoyu noticed that Madam Li was disdainful, Xiren came back, and let Meiren go down.

Xiren heard one or two ears, and said with a smile: "Don't worry about Sister Meiren, she is going to enjoy the blessings. Her aunt has a field at home and has only one son. The daughter-in-law passed away last May. The old man loves his grandson and doesn't want to marry another daughter. Ask someone to go to the old lady to redeem Sister Meiren's body, and wait for her cousin to pick up Sister Meiren's house after taking care of her."

Husbands and wives only serve the period of full decline, which lasts for one year.Baoyu sighed: "Zhanyan is here."

Nanny Li thought he was reluctant to be charming, so she curled her lips and said, "Brother, it's not hard to keep her, just beg the old lady. The He family is just a farmer, so it's good enough to match a boy in our house? That little hoof is originally named Yu , her name is Yu Liuya, her dead father likes to gamble, and her wife and children are all sold out. At that time, Liuya was young and poor-looking, so she failed to sell into the hook~lan, and Fuda entered our house. She was watched by the old lady again Middle tune~ I have been teaching for a few years, but my vision has grown, and I want to get out. Is it so easy to live outside? It will make her suffer."

A fake stone is a modern person, but I think it is charming and ambitious. Most of the servants in this mansion are full of slavishness. Those who are a little bit attractive want to climb into the bed of the male master, and those who are not pretty want to marry a steward. If they are released, they will die If you want to live, it's rare for a charming girl to be a first-class maid without breaking her spine, so she must win over one or two.

So he asked Xiren again about his money. According to him, it should be much better than when he wore it the first time. Where can Eight Lingtong spend his money?Twelve taels a year, counting seven years, if you save more than 80 taels, there are sixty or seventy taels.

Xiren had a great headache, and replied to Mrs. Wang's words: "What do you want? I'll go back to the second wife."

Baoyu's eyes turned cold: "I'm asking how much money I have left!"

Xiren was so wronged, he bit his lip lightly with his white teeth.

Nanny Li sneered: "I'm afraid this little hoof stole the man's money to buy some oil and powder." At first I wanted to say that Xiren took it home secretly, but then I thought that Xiren was a slave alone and had no place to show respect.

Xiren didn't dare to bear the charge, and his eyes were red: "I always remember BLaBLa when Second Master Bao spends money..."

Fake Stone's eyes turned black after hearing this, that Shenying waiter brand Baoyu is a natural born dandy, P's old age is either playing dice with the maids, or playing Go with the sisters. dinner.The mere monthly money is not enough for him to spend, and when it is used up, it will be offset by all kinds of things rewarded by the old lady and the wife.

Nanny Li was also angry, and called Meiren to come in, saying how much gold and silver she had handed over to Meiren, and asked how much she transferred to Xiren, and how she spent it on weekdays.

The fake stone listened silently and vomited blood in his heart: the real version of Baoyu was vaguely two years old and made Li Mama stand aside.Charming is in charge of property for four to five years, unlike Xiren who was able to report one by one after taking over. She only knows that the daily money and red envelopes for the New Year are all gone, and there are not many rewards left. Only the old lady and the second wife gave her The furnishings in the house remained unchanged.

For a moment he really wanted to complain to Wucaishi, but no one around him dared to enter the space.In the past, Wucaishi could talk to him in his mind, but it was related to this when he died for the first time. He was complaining about the overlord, and Wucaishi yelled "left". Jumping right into the big fist! "Psychic Treasure Jade" was annoyed, saying that it is a good practice stone, so don't do inexplicable killings, unless some ordinary person enters the small space, there is nothing to say.

False Stone felt aggrieved and kept silent. Seeing that Second Master Bao didn't speak up for Little Hoof as usual, Nanny Li became even more amused. in front of the seat.

Baoyu was startled: This is going to cause trouble, and if the charming is free, it may be ruined, and he still wants to use the charming!

At that moment, his face sank: "Mother Li, I'm ignorant, and I insisted on letting my charming sister take care of the money. The idea is that I can spoil it as much as I want. The old lady is getting old, don't disturb her old man, my wife will come later You just report it." Then he said in a slow tone: "Sister Charming, don't be alarmed, knowing a child is like a mother, it's my fault, I can't blame you."

How can the charming woman not be shocked, how can the master make mistakes, any mistakes are the fault of the slaves!At the moment, tears streaming down his face, he fell down on his feet.

Nanny Li is especially nagging, saying that Brother Bao is just too good-tempered, and his beloved little hooves act recklessly.He also scolded the second servant girl: "It's just a hairy girl bought for a few taels of money. She makes up a fox all day long~ Meizi coaxes Brother Bao, and the coaxed Brother Bao ignores me and only listens to you! One or two who were not promoted by me, Forget about this little prostitute, who doesn't know the twists and turns in her stomach..."

Nanny Li was in charge of all the maids in the room, the two big maids did not dare to speak back, and burst into tears of anger.

The entanglement between Meiren and Nanny Li is a long story. It was indeed Nanny Li who flattered her back then. Just imagine Baoyu, a two-year-old child making a fuss. How could the old lady take it seriously?It was Nanny Li who let her take care of the money.Just because Nanny Li fell in love with the charming woman and wanted to tell her son Li Gui to be his wife, she let out a little bit of slander, and she was scolded by Mother Jia: maid! Generally, 20 years old are married, Rong Mansion is lenient to servants, but at least sixteen or seventeen, and to seek the grace of the master, Li Nanny broke the rules.

From then on, Nanny Li didn't like charming people, but Shenying's brand Baoyu blindly protected her. The daughter's family was a pearl, and the married woman was a "fish-eye pearl" and so on. of.After hearing this, Mother Jia just laughed and scolded a few words and didn't take it seriously, so that the mother-in-law had no status in Baoyu's house, so Nanny Li dared to scold the maids because of her status as a nurse.

Nanny Li probably has reached menopause, and the more she scolded, the more vigorous she was, and she brought Second Master Bao along with her: "I've breastfed you so much, now I can't eat anymore, throw me aside, and use the girls to embarrass me!" It pulls out the "love red" faults that are not humane, such as the rouge on the mouth of the maidservant of the Shenying brand, the hairpin and ring clothing of the love daughter's family, etc.

Although the fake stone is thick-skinned, it is still a little sweaty. Jin Er is annoyed. MD is a typical bullying master. The rules of the Rong Mansion are so absurd. The young master still has face.Not to mention ancient times, in modern times, do subordinates point their noses at their boss's private eccentricities?Unless he doesn't want to do it anymore!

Mrs. Wang didn't return until half past Xu ([-]:[-] p.m.) due to arranging the change of clothes in the mansion. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard Nanny Li yelling and scolding her darling.

However, Nanny Li belongs to the old lady, and it is inconvenient for her to deal with this old man, so she rushed into the room with a dark face and said, "I dare not bother Grandma Li to serve you! Charming and attackers, please go out and rest! Jin Chuan Son, Caiyun, serve your second master."

Nanny Li's face turned pale, and then she remembered that Brother Bao was injured, and he couldn't eat and walked around in front of the old lady!Wanting to turn things around, Jin Chuan'er already arrogantly ordered the wives to gag her and pull her out.

Charming and Xiren moved slowly towards the door, as if expecting Mrs. Wang to change the order.

There is no wink, Mrs. Wang is on fire!The fake stone didn't want to break his arm, so he waved his hand and said, "Go down, it's not your fault, you should rest after a day of exhaustion." He also cared about Mrs. Wang: "Madam, have you eaten?"

Mrs. Wang smiled wryly: "I used it at the old lady's place." - Leftovers!

Baoyu had tears in her eyes: "Madam, don't get angry, it's all bad. If I didn't have those things, no one would talk about it."

Mrs. Wang's heart ached, her eyes flashed fiercely: "Just rest for a while, I will deal with it, and I will return to the old lady tomorrow."

Baoyu didn't dare to let go of this, Madam Wang ran to sue, the old lady called Nanny Li for questioning, and she would suffer if she talked about charming people and attacking others, so she made a gesture and wiped her tears: "She is my nanny after all, Mrs. My wife has been punished severely, and my face is dull. If she loses her job and goes home angrily, and tells people what she has, I will be the one who looks ugly. As for the old lady, she is the most calculating, charming Xiren has no family members in the mansion, so she is more careful in words and deeds than others. It’s just that charming is too useless. Before Xiren, she was in charge of my property in the house. Save it? When Madam Li asked, she replied that she wanted me to speak up, so I don't have to be scolded by Madam Li."

Mrs. Wang is very sensitive to money, but she doesn't pay attention to the little pocket money of the child, and she just thinks that Li Nanny is greedy for not getting any benefits and making trouble.The nannies of Shixun's noble family rely on their milk to beat men and girls, and it's fine to play tricks on weekdays. Some nannies gamble, eat, drink, sneak and do anything!Not to mention the other houses, but the big house's concubine Yingchun, all valuables in the house were taken away by the nanny.So she stared closely, knowing all the furnishings in Baoyu's room, and checking them from time to time.I don't want the old guy to be greedy for money and hold a grudge, dare to speak loudly to the little master in her room, and turn the world upside down if he doesn't clean up!
