The Red Chamber is not a dream

[No.30 Nine Chapters] Investing in Peach and Li Xing's Goodwill Repaying Qiong Yaoyin's Cage's Heart

But Baoyu came all the way to the room. When he saw Xiren, he smiled and said, "Go and teach that girl who does the work to make me a fan cover." I was the one who made a comparison with Sister Lin and offended him, so I split it in two parts, and I can’t say anything to him. When I do it again, I will give him more money and teach him to stick to this one. Do it." Hearing the words, Xiren only cried bitterly, and said: "Who outside girl made it there? It was Miss Shi who made it for you. The two of us talked about coaxing you to be stubborn, so we said it was an outsider. I did it. What can I do now!" Hearing this, Baoyu was full of regret, and said, "What can I say! Bai failed his mind." Nai paused, thinking about how to explain to Xiangyun.

But that day when Xiangyun went to look for Daiyu, he saw the two halves of the fan cover lying on the table. He picked it up and saw that it was the same as his own. Where did it come from?" Daiyu said with a smile, "Second cousin got it from outside. He said it was a girl who made a good flower tie, so I bothered him to make one and gave it to me, and others said nothing. I’m impatient, so I broke it.” It turned out that when Daiyu heard Baoyu’s words, she thought that if it was a gift from Xiangyun, he would not have given it to herself; Tong Baoyu made two paragraphs in anger. If he knew that Xiangyun did it, it would definitely not be the case.Xiangyun, however, wanted to avoid people's eyes and ears. Although he was upset when he saw Daiyu say this, he knew that Daiyu had never lied. Daiyu said she knew, and forced a few more words, then went back to her room.Just when his family sent someone to pick him up here, he went back to Jia Mu in a fit of anger, and he went home.When Baoyu heard that Xiangyun had gone back, he knew he was annoyed, so he had to think about how to make amends in the future, so as to make him turn around.Nothing for now.

But now that the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, Yunyu thinks about Mrs. Tuoxing leading Daiyu to visit various houses.Seeing the usual scene, Nai thought to himself: "Now it seems that the newborn brother Ruo'er is the most important thing for Mrs. Xing. However, he is born on the first day of the first lunar month. Mrs. Xing consciously overwhelmed the second wife. I am very happy. Now I look at Jia Lian with a cold eye, and he does not have any great prospects. I can only point to the title of my ancestors. I don’t know yet. From our point of view, it’s the right place to start from here.” So it’s no problem to plan secretly.

Who knows how wonderful things are in this world.Daiyu went to Jiamu's side that day, and was talking with Baochai there, when she suddenly saw Mrs. Xing's maid Chunxi coming, and said with a smile to several people, "Our wife invited some girls to come over and have something to say." When his sister heard this, she went to Mrs. Xing's courtyard.Mrs. Xing saw a few people coming, she hurriedly watched the seats, said a few homely words, and said with a smile: "Your sisters are only in the mansion on weekdays, but don't you feel bored? I told the old lady the day before yesterday, Now that Duanyang is approaching, there are a lot of people in the capital walking around. You are all grown up now, why don't you go to other people's homes with me in a few days." Then he smiled at Baochai and Daiyu: " Let me ask you, the three nieces should go with the girls from our place, it will be more lively if there are more people." When his sister heard this, she hurriedly bowed to thank her, and Mrs. Xing paid attention to the expressions of these people, and saw that they were all right. Yes, Fang reassured and said: "Thank you! It turned out that I followed suit. Seeing that your sisters are growing like flowers, don't you put gold on my face?" As they said, they laughed After a while, Fang said goodbye.

For a while Daiyu went back to her room, where Yunyu was sitting, and when she saw him coming, she smiled and said, "What did the eldest lady teach you guys to do?" Daiyu then said what Mrs. Xing had said.When Jinyu heard the words, she laughed secretly and said, "It's true that it doesn't take much effort to get here. The eldest wife is so knowledgeable and interesting, she will have to take the big house with her in the future." It turned out that Mrs. Xing was heartbroken when she saw that Jinyu had won the tribute. They woke up early in the morning with the intention of wooing Jia Lian, but they didn't have a deep friendship with Jia Lian. If Jia Lian was first taught to show affection, it would be unsightly. After thinking about it, they thought of Baochai and Daiyu.Just now that Duanyang is approaching, he thought: "Now that the girls are all grown up, they must go to other people's homes. It will be cheaper to find relatives in the future; Lin girl has no mother now, and Mrs. Xue has a low status. No one else took it with me, so there is a lot to be done. Now I will send a favor to them, and let them both feel my feelings. It doesn't take much effort, and even the old lady can't say anything; If you have something to ask the two of them, it's easy to talk. This is a beautiful thing to kill two birds with one stone." Thinking so, he called his sister to talk about it the next day.Sure enough, this move hit Jinyu's heart, just like sending him a certificate of honor, so he secretly thought that in the future, he must find an opportunity to mention Jia Lian, no problem.

But Mrs. Xing sent his sister out. Seeing Sister Feng coming this way, the nurse behind her was holding Jia Ruo, so she took the baby in his hands and held it in her own. She laughed and said, "It's heavier than the day before yesterday." Better." Sister Feng said with a smile, "give it to me quickly, my wife will be tired if you are careful." Mrs. Xing said with a smile, "I will be tired there! You must know whether you are tired or not depends on what you are holding. I am now Holding the golden grandson of our family's direct relatives, even if we hold them for a whole day, it won't be tiring." So he teased him with Sister Feng for a while, and then said to the wet nurse, "You take your brother down first." Sister Feng Hearing this, he knew that Mrs. Xing had something to say to him. Seeing that the maids had gone out, Fang Wen said Mrs. Xing: "I talked to him a few times today, and there is no one who is unwilling. You will be in good health now. Yes, the old lady asked me that day, presumably to teach you to come out to manage affairs. In the future, let's not treat them poorly. If Lian'er wants to go to a high place, he must need some help; your uncle also needs to say One sound."

When Sister Feng heard that Mrs. Xing talked about Wang Ziteng, she obviously focused on her natal family, and she was a little proud of herself. She also heard that Mrs. Xing smiled and said: "Our house is not like it now. Your second sister came with me that day. Speaking of this ceremony, it seems that it is not as good as the seven-point situation in previous years. I thought that frugality is not on this, so it is not an offense to relatives? Naturally, we will give another one-point gift as before, which is even more important than In previous years, it was thicker, and I took the silver and gave it to Lian'er; if you don't get the money, just ask for it from me." It turns out that although Mrs. Xing also valued this treasure, she knew very well that "fishing with a long line The principle of "big fish" means that all the money is paving the way for Jia Lian; if Jia Lian is promising in the future, Yingchun can also find a good relative. Jia ruoliao; therefore, he did not hesitate to use the money, and made a wish to make friends with the Lin family and the Xue family.

Seeing Mrs. Xing's dedication, Sister Feng was very grateful, so she laughed again: "I heard people say the day before yesterday that the second wife seems to have something to say, but it seems that she is not willing to teach a few younger sisters out." Mrs. Xing Yin sneered and said: "He's too dazed. All the female family members in Beijing are like this. He is afraid that he will lose his face. Could it be that it is too late to teach a few girls? The girl he raised was originally sent to If you go to the palace, you don't care about other people's affairs!" It turns out that Mrs. Wang is only a respectable person of the fifth rank, and when she meets women from other aristocratic families, she often hates her lack of status, so she has never led a few girls to other people's homes. to go.Mrs. Xing felt that this was not the way to grow up, so she insisted on reporting it to Jia's mother.Although Jia Mu usually treated Mrs. Xing indifferently, she also felt that what he said was reasonable and could not be refuted, so she had to agree, which made Mrs. Wang so angry that she didn't dare to say anything, so she had to go back to her room to be angry.At that moment, his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked, and Sister Feng came out to her room to finish.

When Zhenyu went back that day, she told Xue Die about it.The two discussed it and decided to invite Jia Lian out for a drink the next day.After drinking for three rounds, Yunyu smiled and said to Jia Lian, "The day before yesterday, I had a drink with Brother Zhen in the East Mansion and talked about buying a farmhouse near the ancestral tomb in your house, and said that my second cousin would also buy it; Knowing that that place was originally the property of my father's family, he is a bit old-fashioned. Brother Zhen talked to him for a long time, but he refused. I will ask him with my second cousin some other day." Jia Lian also listened. When Jia Zhen mentioned this, she was overjoyed when she saw that Yunyu was willing to help, and raised her glass and said, "Thank you for your kindness, cousin."Zhenyu and Xue Die also drank, and ate for a while. Seeing that Jia Lian had already had a third of the wine, they looked at each other. Haven't you ever?" Jia Lian knew something about it when he heard the words, so he said, "I would like to hear more about it." Xue Die laughed and said, "It's not a big deal, I heard about it in the past. It's just that someone said the good fortune of your family. Very big, the second master first got a daughter who was destined to be noble, and then he got a brother who was born with a jade title. Even the Holy Majesty has heard of it; Things come, so there are words."

When Jia Lian heard this, she broke out in a cold sweat.When Jia Ruo was born that day, he only cared about joy, but forgot that it poked people's eyes; the second room's Yuan Chun was originally born on the first day of the first lunar month, and there was a big commotion that day, which must have attracted people's attention; now Jia Ruo is Yuan Ri again. Birth, if someone with a heart deliberately mentions a few words in front of today, he will naturally feel uncomfortable.So the more I think about it, the more afraid I become. Fortunately, now that I know about it, I have a way to go. But I got up and said, "Thank you, cousin." Yunyu and Xue Die got up to help him, and Xue Die said with a smile, "This is this How do you say it! But we are close relatives, so I said this for nothing. I knew that my cousin was not the foolish person waiting for me, so I just said it. My cousin is like this now, but he killed me." Jia Lian is shrewd. Although he is not as good as the two of them, he is not ignorant of world affairs. Kuang has also dealt with the officialdom in the past two years, so he naturally knows that he has good intentions. Mrs. Xing said that she knew, it was no problem.
