The Mighty First Wife of the Red Chamber

After Mrs. Wang left, Mother Jia sat heavily on the couch without saying a word.

Yuanyang had been doing needlework outside the room just now, and now she brought a big woolen coat and said in a low voice: "Old lady, the weather is cool, it's cold just sitting, and it's not time to put on a brazier, why don't you put on a sweater?" Fur clothes."

Jiamu nodded, and Yuanyang put the big woolen dress with a bucket of pearls on her shoulders and tied it with a belt.

Mother Jia sighed, and said, "Min'er still honors me with this cloak. It is said to be a rarity from the Raksha Kingdom, and here we have rare treasures that are hard to buy with money. Look around. The wool is actually the lanugo on the head of a lamb that has not yet been born, and dozens of lambs have gathered this cloak."

Yuanyang echoed and exclaimed: "Then this leather is very precious."

Mother Jia stroked the fur and said, "Isn't it? Just this cloak might cost dozens of taels of gold!" It seemed that her daughter's voice and smile appeared in front of her eyes, which made her dim old eyes a little wet.

Yuanyang tsk-tsk said: "Slaves have learned a lot! Speaking of which, my aunt is really filial to you, but..." Life is too thin, so she left early, leaving behind an orphan girl, Miss Lin. Although the old lady I really love her, but the old lady is more than 70 years old, and she can take care of Miss Lin for a few days. Judging from what the wife said to the old lady today, it really wasn't because she didn't feel bad at all.Ruthless, too cruel, not to mention that the old lady is uncomfortable, even if she is a bystander, she will feel chilled when she hears it.Yuanyang thought sympathetically.

Jia Mu said, "Did you hear what my wife said just now?"

Yuanyang said in a voice like a mosquito: "I have heard a little bit, but it is far away, so I may not be able to hear it clearly." Although she felt sorry for Miss Lin in her heart, Yuanyang did not dare to reveal it until she understood what the old lady meant. Relying on her merits in serving the old lady, she is a bit respectable in the house, but she knows how much she weighs. Who is the wife, and she can be crushed to death with a little effort, so she dare not speak casually.

Jia Mu shook her head and said, "You've learned to be naughty now, and you keep your thoughts hidden. Hey, I'm old, and I can't do many things well, but do you think so?"

Yuanyang said sadly: "Old lady, this servant is all for you, but now in the mansion..."

Mother Jia said coldly: "The second child's family is all controlled, right? Huh, she kept saying filial piety, but she played a lot of tricks behind her back. On the surface, I am still the old ancestor of this mansion, the old Fengjun , In fact, this mansion has become the base of her royal family, why do you think it is like this! Today, she said with a shy face that she would send Miss Lin to the palace! I wish I could spit in the face of that whore Come on! I finally endured it!"

Yuanyang comforted softly.

Now that Mother Jia said the beginning, she naturally expressed her resentment in long paragraphs: "That whore, the words are better than the songs, what kind of Miss Lin's beauty is hard to find in the world! Missing her dog eyes, she is still busy pushing them away, but she doesn’t want to ration Baoyu? Doesn’t she know what Baoyu’s thoughts are as a mother? A while ago, there was a huge disturbance because of a Zijuan who said that Miss Lin was going back to the south. , but why?"

Yuanyang said: "Second Master Bao has some affection for Miss Lin in his heart, and even the servants know a little bit about it, but to avoid suspicion, the servants dare not talk too much."

Facing Yuanyang, her confidant, Jia Mu completely opened up the chatter box, saying: "The only thing in her heart is her niece, the eldest girl of the Xue family! She is still talking nonsense behind her back. You are like a child, and you can only be naughty with Miss Lin. You don't make progress and delay Miss Lin. You have to be mature and prudent to hold Baoyu down. Hehe, Miss Xue is really mature and prudent, and like Xiren Make two gourds into a pair, don't suffocate Baoyu to death! Hmph, she has that kind of vision! She doesn't like a good girl like Yu'er, but she wants Baoyu to call a murderer brother-in-law!"

Yuanyang laughed bitterly and said, "Madam's eyes really are..."

Mother Jia snorted, and said coldly: "At first, I was always talking about the two Yu'er and the two Yu'er. I thought that both of them are good children, so I let their wishes come true, and they lived happily ever after." Forever. Now, since her own mother has expressed her displeasure, forget it, it’s no big deal. A twisted melon is not sweet, and a mother-in-law doesn’t want to see her daughter-in-law. A troubled body, why bother? Forcibly point Lin girl to Baoyu, Lin girl may not have a smooth life, they are not satisfied as parents, complaining about this and that, only say that my grandmother's hands are too long, and it is obviously a matter of children's marriage It is the words of the parents, but they insist on stopping in front, and the cow does not drink water and presses its head forcibly!"

Yuanyang said: "But, what about Miss Lin? Could it be..."

Jia's mother said: "If Lin girl doesn't marry Baoyu, I will never agree to send her to the palace! Huh, what kind of daughter is sent to the palace? It's all because the family watches their daughter soaring into the sky so as to drag the family, or The family is powerful and powerful, and the daughter will not be oppressed when she goes. Lin girl has no father and no mother, and she is here naked, so she can't take advantage of her natal family's influence. If you are a supporter, it is better to choose a decent family and marry Shun Shun, and An An will live a happy life!"

Yuanyang nodded and said: "That's the truth, the old lady is very thoughtful. But, Miss Lin is about to meet someone at this age, does the old lady have a suitable candidate?"

Mother Jia sighed and said, "That's what I'm worried about. I started to focus on asking her to marry Baoyu, and didn't consider other people. I just said that my old face is good, and I can do it. I didn't expect it to be like this! I went back and forth, but Lin The girl has been delayed!"

Yuanyang smiled and said: "There is no delay. Didn't the old lady hear someone say it? The master has a student named Fu or something, and there is a girl in the family. She is very picky because of her good looks. The girl is 23, and she is still in the boudoir." Well, Miss Lin is only 16 years old this year, which is a good age."

Jia's mother said: "16 years old is not young, we must hurry up. The girl Feng married into our house at the age of 13!"

Speaking of Xifeng, Jia's mother suddenly remembered, and said: "Speaking of which, that whore is really hateful. I heard people say that in those days when Miss Lin was ill, she didn't even have any bird's nest, and she still had to rely on that big girl from the Xue family to help her." , Fortunately, Feng girl is still sensible, and she caressed Lin girl, thinking about this makes my heart ache!"

Yuanyang said: "Yes, Second Grandma Lian is a sensible person, and she is sincerely good to Miss Lin."

Mother Jia twisted her gray eyebrows, and said: "I'm not mean to their second wife. That whore's behavior is really cold-hearted, and it was a waste of my bad name! Until now, I really regret it! It's just that , this matter has to be considered from the long-term. The four great families admired by the world, King Xue of Jia Shi, originally we were the Duke's mansion, and we were at the forefront, but now we are much worse than the Wang family, so we are called that whore So crazy! By the way, speaking of members of the Wang family, Xifeng is also a member of the Wang family. Although her seniority is relatively small, she is very good at dealing with things. Today, she confronted that whore face to face. Let me see, among them...is it ..."

Yuanyang said in admiration: "As expected of an old lady, she has a quick brain. The maidservant also feels that Lian's Second Mistress is not at all like in the past, and she and the Second Wife are at odds. I don't know if they have a quarrel or what. Why don't the old lady simply call Second Mistress Lian over and tell her to face the old lady completely with a few words."

Jia Mu raised her eyebrows with interest and said, "Oh, what do you think?"

Yuanyang said: "Although the second mistress was kind to the old lady before, she also obeyed the second wife's words and everything went well. Even if she had a body and needed maintenance, when the second wife spoke, she would obediently go to listen to the training. But, since After the Second Mistress had a miscarriage, she changed, she became a little disrespectful to the Second Wife, and the slave felt that the Mistress had something to do with the Second Mistress, so..."

Mother Jia's eyes lit up.

Yuanyang said: "If the second grandma suspects the second wife because of the miscarriage, we can take advantage of it, and as an old lady, we can say a few words casually, and the fake can become true. Second Mistress is suspicious!"

Jia Mu nodded and said, "Good idea! Good maid! Here, this is your reward." Then, Jia Mu took off an emerald bracelet inlaid with red gold from her hand, put it on Yuanyang's wrist with her own hands, and looked at it with vacant eyes. , said: "It looks good!"

Yuanyang said crisply: "Thank you, old lady, for the reward."

Jia Mu said: "Since I have told you to know today, I still have to rely on you to help me deal with many things."

Yuanyang said: "Let the old lady order me."

Mother Jia said with satisfaction: "Okay."

Xia Ye returned to her small courtyard, and asked without waiting for the servants to serve tea, "Where is Eldest Sister?"

Ping'er came forward and said: "The second master said he wanted to see the second sister. At the moment, the father and daughter are playing on the bed. The second master does not allow anyone to go in and serve him. People are very worried, even if the elder sister It doesn't matter how serious it is, if it hits the second master's wound."

Xia Ye said, "I'll go and have a look."

Before entering the room where Jia Lian was convalescing, he heard the crisp laughter of the eldest sister "Ge Ge Ge".

Xia Ye couldn't help but also bent the corners of her lips, thinking, did the sun come out from the west today?Jia Lian actually took the eldest sister alone?Can you make a child laugh like this?It seems that he also has the posture of being a father.

I'm afraid that if the eldest sister accidentally hits his wound and the zipper slips, won't that make me work all night in vain?Thinking of this, Xia Ye immediately quickened his pace, and ran over in three steps in two.
