The Red Chamber is not a dream

[No.60] Unintentional words can save lives, intentional actions can protect loved ones

Now everyone in Rongning and Ningxia knows that Jia Zhengyao brought his family to take office.Mrs. Xing heard this, but she was worried and happy: the happy one is that Mrs. Wang is not here, so there is no need to guard against him, and it will be easier in the future; All things fall on the head of the big house. If something happens in the future, it is difficult to distinguish. Although I don't care about it, I don't want to pay for Sister Feng and Jia Lian, so I think hard about what to do.When I want to discuss with Jia She, I know his usual temperament: he is the most proficient in wine and sex, but if he wants to come up with a serious idea, he can only stare blankly.It's just that if you want to make a fuss about this matter, you must talk to him; you have to think about bringing it up first when he comes back, to check his mind, and then make a decision at that time.

When Jia She came back in the evening, Mrs. Xing saw him coming, she stood up hurriedly, ordered the servant girl to wait on her and changed her clothes, and asked with a smile, "Master, you have been working hard recently?" What are you working hard for? You have to deal with complicated affairs at home every day, but you are also burdened." Mrs. Xing knew that Jia She had a weak relationship with her, and now that she suddenly said this, she must have something to say, so she just kept silent. , and listen to what he said later; seeing that Jia She had thought about it for a while, he said to Mrs. Xing: "There is a girl named Yuanyang in the old lady's room. Do you see her every day?" Mrs. Xing heard this. , Yue had already guessed a little bit, then nodded and said: "Is it true? The old lady loves her like a baby, she is a very smart child. The old lady said that day, she is better than the second girl. "

Jia She said with a smile: "Exactly. Now there is something I want you to do: I thought about it the day before yesterday, and I wanted to accept a new aunt into the house; I wanted to buy one, but those people who came from Yazi's house didn't know the details. If it's not easy to return at that time, I'd better go to the mansion to pick a daughter born in the family. I made a selection coldly, and I chose this girl. You tell him for me, and I begged the old lady to accept her. Wouldn't it be cheaper to be in the house." Having said that, he twisted his beard and laughed, "If you can accomplish this, I will thank you very much."

Mrs. Xing knew something was wrong when she heard the words, and she couldn't directly dismiss it, so she looked at Jia She's face and said, "Yuanyang is the first person that the old lady can use, I'm afraid the old lady may not be willing." Xie sneered and said: "I've been a man for half my life, so I don't think it's okay to ask this girl to be a roommate? Besides, I don't just like her. That girl is not born to be above average, but the old lady's private house, so what? Didn’t one of them pass his hands? I watched coldly. In the future, the old lady will reward him and Baoyu to be aunts. At that time, we can go there to find those things! If it was me before, it’s fine now. Lian'er has a son, don't I think about it for my grandson! It just so happens that the second room is going out now, and when they are gone, I took this opportunity to ask this girl to come; if we marry him, it will naturally be at our mercy, and then everything Ours."

Mrs. Xing heard what Jia She said, and she had already made up her mind, but she finally felt that this was not an option. After thinking about it for a while, she laughed and said: "The old lady treats us better than the second bedroom. He is in front of the old lady. Complacent, naturally look at us more lightly." Talking for a while, suddenly an inspiration flashed, and he said in a low voice: "Besides, this thing is dead, but people are alive; even if you marry him, if he holds a grudge Is it impossible to guard against it? Just now they go out, and it will take two or three years before they come back. Let's take advantage of this period of time to understand the situation in this mansion, but it's no comparison. Is it easier to come alone? If you have to spend this time, why don't you buy a beautiful one from outside, and you won't be naughty." At the beginning, Jia Amnesty was only tempered for a while, but now he has gradually lost the heat, and he heard that Mrs. Xing's words made sense Kuang thought about it for a while, and inevitably lost his confidence. He was also afraid that he would lose face in front of Jiamu, so he pretended to ponder for a while, and said, "You are right. It's not that I'm afraid of the old lady; it's just that I'm too lazy to treat people with me." Seeing that what she said has worked, Madam Xing smiled and said, "The old man said that the old man is afraid of the old lady. Usually there are two mothers and children, so what is there to be afraid of? We just want to be clean. "The two talked for a while, and then went to sleep in the room.

But Mrs. Xing said that although Mrs. Xing put the matter aside, she saw clearly Jia Amnesty's actions and deeds, so she didn't expect to have any good ideas; so she got up the next morning and went to Jia's mother to save her room, so she ordered Chunxi to look for Jia Lian. Come on, tell Jia She what he said yesterday about wanting to marry a mandarin duck, and then say: "Fortunately, I passed, otherwise I would be ashamed in front of the old lady. The old lady is still strong and her mind is clear. Don't you know what the master means? Not only are you not allowed, but you will be angry." Jia Lian thought it was true, but said with a smile: "Fortunately, our wife understands. Otherwise, what the master does will be pushed to me and my wife again. Come on." Mrs. Xing said with a smile, "you can just tell me, don't teach others to listen; when the time comes, learn to listen to the master, and beat you carefully." Jia Lian responded with a smile, and said, "Now there is a matter, I need to ask my mother for advice."

When Mrs. Xing heard the words, she guessed what Jia Amnesty taught him to do again, because she asked what it was; I picked up a fan, which made me search around, but I haven't found any good ones. Unexpectedly, there was a poor ghost who didn't know how to die. He was nicknamed a stone nerd. He is willing to take it out. If it is said that he is not willing to share with others, he can hold it at home, but he is born to talk about it. I don’t know who said that the master knew it, and immediately forced me to find it. I am so bored. How much love, I went to his house to look at those fans, but they were really good things, and I was about to buy them from him, but he would grit his teeth and refuse, saying, "If you want a fan, you will kill him first!" So I was worrying, but I didn't know What to do."

After hearing what he had said, Mrs. Xing asked with a smile, "Have you talked to the master?" Jia Lian said, "Not yet. Because my mother called me, I came here first." Mrs. Xing thought for a while and said with a smile: "That's easy to say. You just told the master that his fan is ordinary. Although it is an old thing, it is not worth a lot of money; the master heard this and naturally threw it away. From what you said, this person is indeed an idiot. The matter can be changed there; if Qiang buys it, our family has a big business, and if we teach people to tell it, it will be a 'bullying', and you are an official, isn't it nice?" Jia Lian suddenly became enlightened and laughed. Said: "Thank you mother. I was confused for a moment and forgot this method."

Mrs. Xing said: "This filial piety should not be too much. Seeing that the master is confused, do we also become confused? If you tell him, he will naturally scratch his heart and think that he must force you to get it with him. If you can't get it done, you have to send someone out and teach others how to do it. That screwer is so cruel and merciless, you definitely don't want to discuss it with him like you do. Come on, what shall we do?" Jia Lian was even more horrified when he heard the words, and said, "That's all there." Mrs. Xing said seriously: "We must guard against it. If everything is out of our sight, it is beyond what we can do. .”

Jia Lian was very awed by his mother's words, and said, "Mother is really a sage! If I have anything to do in the future, I will ask my mother more, and I hope my mother will not dislike her son Shaodao." Mrs. Xing said with a smile: "I've heard this nonsense twice in three days, and my ears are numb. Let's not talk about these nonsense; I have one more thing to teach you to do." Jia Lian hurriedly asked what was going on, and Mrs. Xing would check the accounts at home. After talking about the loss, he said: "This matter requires you and Feng girl to work together. I see that the family has not behaved in recent years, and I am afraid that something will happen; you two must find out this matter inside and out. Let’s go, don’t talk about me and your master, just think about Brother Ruo!”

After hearing this, Jia Lian agreed quickly, and said a few words to his mother before going to his room.When I got to the room, I saw Sister Feng was turning over the cloth with Ping'er, and said, "Let's stay here for a while, I have something to say to your grandma." Seeing this, Ping'er led the girls out and closed the door , since sitting on the steps does not allow people to enter.Seeing that there were only two of them left, Jia Lian told him exactly what Mrs. Xing had said today, and said, "We are the blessings of our previous life, and we have such a understanding wife; I am ashamed of myself." Sister Feng was also surprised when she heard the words, and said: "Madam, this person is really rare in the world. You and the second sister are not his own children, but you still think so for you; although it is also paving the way for yourself in the future, it is rare." Jia Lian said "Let's not talk about that. Now that you are a housekeeper again, you need to pay more attention to the accounting. I will go to the various farms and look around at that time. Anyway, I am a little fussy."

If the two agreed, Jia Lian went out to Jia Amnesty.When he saw Jia Amnesty, he returned what Mrs. Xing said, and said, "It's just that the idler spread rumors and believed nonsense. I will go out to look for it some other day. I will find a good one to honor the master." Xie heard that although he was greatly disappointed, he had no choice but to let it go, so he had nothing to say for a while.

In addition, Mrs. Xing's few careless words saved the life of the mandarin duck and saved the life of the stone nerd, which is an act of building a seven-level pagoda; The credit goes to Mrs. Xing.In the future, I will see that he turns bad luck into good fortune and good luck in death, but he doesn't want to come from these things. He doesn't see him at this time; he only said that Jia Lian deeply felt Mrs. Xing's virtue, and remembered what he taught him, so he secretly taught his confidants to investigate and visit. Down.
