Now it is said that in the big house of the Rong Mansion, Mrs. Xing heard that Daiyu was going to move out, so she smiled at Sister Feng and said, "Look, Miss Lin still depends on her father to be the master. Although his brother is a powerful person But he is a junior, so it is not easy to compete with the old lady; now he has taken advantage of his father's return to Beijing to move out, so it is obvious that he does not look down on Baoyu." Sister Feng laughed and said, "The second wife has to look at Baoyu like a treasure. Siyu; looking at sister Lin's daily behavior, where does he take him seriously. What's more, such a character as his own brother is not in his eyes, let alone Baoyu? Not to mention Lin girl, even Aunt Xue's family has never looked at him Hit him." Mrs. Xing said: "The old lady took Zhonglin girl, but the second wife took Zhongbao girl. Now that neither of them can make it, I'm afraid the old lady has moved to ask for Yun girl again."

Sister Feng heard that Mrs. Xing mentioned Xiangyun, but she remembered something, and said: "I have something to ask my wife. Didn't it mean that the Zhao family intended to settle down on Yun girl? Why did they decide on my younger sister?" Mrs. Xing sighed: "His family was not considered a good relative; it's just that the girl's status is limited, and she may not be able to marry a better one. I asked Lian'er to inquire, and I heard that his brother is a It's easy, so I agree. Yun girl's matter was vaguely heard by people, saying that he lost his parents and mothers when he was young, and he was uneducated; he was within the five unmarried, so that's all." Sister Feng was surprised when she heard this. Said: "This is strange again. Even if he has no parents, don't he have two Mrs. Hou as aunts? How come such words come out again!"

Mrs. Xing heard this, and said: "I didn't say that girl Yun's reputation was born to be ruined by himself. When I come here every day, I say that I am very tired at home. Doesn't this mean that the family members of their family are very tired?" Did the two wives treat him well? As the saying goes, "If a widow and the eldest daughter don't marry, they will have no education." Both uncles themselves are Marquis, and two Marquis and wives teach him, who dares to talk? Come out and say that he was strangled. Let’s not say whether the matter is true or not. If it’s true, wouldn’t it be nice to say it? What’s the benefit to him? We’ve heard this, but it’s rotten in our stomachs. Someone with a heart listened to it and intentionally exaggerated it, so I made this statement today. The old lady stays at home every day, and because of her age, she doesn't go to other houses, so she doesn't know about it. If she knows, she will be angry again."

Mrs. Xing's parents died when she was young, and she lived with her uncle's house.His aunt had her own daughter, and she treated him like this, but he knew in his heart that he would never tell outsiders; he knew that if this matter spread, it would definitely hurt his reputation.Sister Feng also expected this, and admired Mrs. Xing's knowledge even more; suddenly she thought of her own family affairs, and said to herself: "my father was ordinary, but my uncle was a good one; I was taken to live at home to mention my identity so that I can find a marriage in the future. But I am young and ignorant, and I have betrayed the kindness of my uncle and aunt." So I felt ashamed, and secretly thought how to repay his uncle's family Because he thought of Mrs. Wang again, he suddenly changed his color, and said to Mrs. Xing in a low voice: "Mom, the second wife did this girl Yun?"

He usually only called Mrs. Xing his wife, but now he forgot about it for a while and blurted it out, but he didn't notice it; Mrs. Xing was very happy when she heard this, knowing that he was close to him now, she smiled and said: "You Say yes or no?" Sister Feng thought about it carefully again, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she said, "I can't think of anyone else who can do this. It's just that the second wife is also ruthless. For the sake of my own son, I ruined the reputation of other people's daughters."

Sister Feng's guess was half right.When Mrs. Wang heard Xiangyun's complaints, she naturally thought of his upbringing at home. Seeing that Xiangyun was acting out of control, she was afraid that Jia's mother would assign him to Baoyu, so she talked about it with Jia Zheng. The son complained a few words; however, there are many people here, so it is inevitable that some images will be spread.That guy is an idler in the market, who wants to make trouble when he has nothing to do; now that he has heard a few words, he can't help but catch the wind and add more oil and vinegar, resulting in today's fruit.When those aristocratic families heard this, they naturally thought about it; Kuang Jingzhong also had many daughters of the same age as him, so they didn't ask his family to marry him.Poor Xiangyun is only at home every day, how does he know?

Mrs. Xing didn't know the reason. Seeing what Sister Feng said, she said: "We are just guessing. No one has seen it. He said it. But my mother is talking about it. Even Lian'er can't mention it. Sister Feng, however, has experienced the miscarriage last time, and hated Mrs. Wang deeply. Although she heard Mrs. Xing said so, she still believed that Mrs. Wang did it, but she couldn't say anything more, so she responded indiscriminately.Mrs. Xing looked at his expression and knew that Sister Feng had pinned the matter on Mrs. Wang; it was just that it had nothing to do with her, and Kuang Suri and the second wife were not on good terms, so she never defended him, but turned the topic and said: "Now that I'm free, it's time to clean up Yingyao's nanny. They're disgusting, they even pawned the girl's jewelry; but they dared to rebel against Yingying's good nature." Just about to show it in front of Mrs. Xing, when he heard the words, he hurriedly said: "He relied on the power of the second wife to dare to do this. My sister is so good-natured, but I can't bear it! Now I will also be raised well, and I will come out to rehabilitate in the future Taking care of this family matter, Wen Ping'er said the day before yesterday that he got angry with me and was going to take advantage of him; the wife only entrusted this matter to me, and she must vent her anger with my sister."

Mrs. Xing smiled when she saw him so righteously angry, and comforted her: "My son, don't be angry. You are so angry because of this screwdriver, why don't you make me feel bad? I know you love my sister, but it's just about this matter. It's not easy to get ahead; the second wife is your aunt, if you slap him in the face, he won't do it? In my opinion, it's better to find someone who can cure him; , isn’t it better?” Sister Feng hurriedly asked who, Madam Xing smiled and said, “Who is the biggest in our family?” Sister Feng understood after hearing this, but she didn’t know what Madam Xing wanted to do, so she said: “Madam, please let me know. " Mrs. Xing motioned him to come over and whispered a few words. After hearing this, Sister Feng was convinced and said with a smile, "It's my wife after all. We still have a lot to learn." So the two agreed that Sister Feng went to the room by herself. to finish.

At noon, Mrs. Wang called Sister Feng to discuss the Mid-Autumn Festival.Sister Feng came back one by one, and said with a smile: "My wife has been tired these days, and I have not been able to take care of me well. I will teach my wife how to worry about this big family." But Mrs. Wang didn't know that Sister Feng already knew what she had done to him. , still as if he was of one mind with him, Hearing this, he smiled and said: "What is this, how can you talk about such heretical words. The old lady is old; your mother-in-law is a careless person, and the second girl and the third girl are young, so why don't you just talk about it?" Do we have to be busy with our mother? Now that you are well, it makes me feel better." Sister Feng laughed and said: "I have been in the courtyard these days, it is inevitable that I will be careless; if today is long, I am afraid that the mansion will gamble for money. The wine business has started again. How about I order a few women to follow around to check around at night, so I can beat them." Mrs. Wang heard this, because she felt that there were no people in her room who would gather to drink at night. Only a few women in the big house are like this; this is the time to cut the face of the big house, why not?He said, "You're right. These slaves don't look like them anymore. They should be rectified." Hearing this, Sister Feng agreed and came to the courtyard.

At night, Sister Feng ordered Mrs. Ruo to carry Brother Ruo and went to inspect everywhere.Sure enough, there was no one in Mrs. Wang's courtyard like this; when it came to Yingchun courtyard, they just caught Yingchun's grandmother and several women, and even several women and daughters-in-law who went to night in Jiamu's outer courtyard.At that moment, Sister Feng reported to Mrs. Wang, "Two boys are already there. There is a group in the outer courtyard of the old lady, and there is a group in our side. They are all in custody, waiting for the wife to deal with them. But Do you want to talk to the old lady?" Mrs. Wang said: "Since it is found out, I must not hide it from the old lady. Go back when you get up tomorrow." Sister Feng agreed; after a night like this, until tomorrow, she will go to the old lady. Jia Mu went back there.When Jia Mu heard the words, she was also furious, and said, "I expected this to happen a long time ago. It's fine to pay it back every night without care; but blindly gambling money and drinking, it's okay!" bring it up.

When several people arrived, they all knelt on the ground and kowtowed for mercy.When Jia's mother asked, it turned out that the sister of Liu's daughter-in-law and Yingchun's wet nurse were the leaders in the kitchen, and said, "These dice cards will be burned when all the stones are burnt. The two leaders, each with forty boards, are thrown out; The rest also beat [-] boards each, and leather rice for two months. If there is another offender, they will be kicked out together!" Yingchun got the letter yesterday, and Mrs. Kuang Xing also told him that although he is sitting today, He sat and didn't make a sound.Tanchun saw Yingchun's nurse like this, fearing that he would not look good, so he got up and smiled and begged Jia's mother, "this mother is not stubborn in the past, but she is happy this time. Please see the second sister's face." Come on, let him go." When Jia Mu heard the words, she just refused, but in the past, after hearing Baoyu's complaint, she hated what these nurses did, and said, "These nurses, one by one, relied on their brothers and sisters to eat him when they were young. For a few days, I feel that I am a head taller than others, but it is even more abominable, and I don’t have to spoil my brothers and sisters. I wanted to fix it early in the morning, and I just met one now. Don’t worry about it.” Tan Chunwen Yan Mo was speechless, so he sat down on his seat.

Mrs. Wang regretted seeing that the big house was the nanny she had called in the past, and thought to herself: "If I had known this, I wouldn't have taught Feng girl to talk to the old lady." Yingchun also lowered her head, but felt that she had hurt the dignity of the big house, and thought: "This is not all bad for this place. In this way, the big wife will have to be accused of not being strict with her subordinates; besides, the second girl He's just an honest man, and he has a family again, so he will leave the cabinet in a few days, so it's nothing to worry about." So he didn't make a sound.The housekeeper's daughters-in-law got the letter and went to deal with those people without mentioning it.After this incident, Mrs. Xing removed the ears and eyes of the second room a lot, and shed the wet nurse of Yingchun, and she felt happy in her heart; it was a matter of great joy to all.It's just that who wins and who loses depends on the future, so I won't show it at this time.
