Red Mansion: No Empty House Fight

As soon as Jiang Zining became conscious, he realized that he was crying and hiccupping. A dying woman beside him who seemed to be the original mother was holding his chubby hand, which was obviously several proportions smaller. Some haggard women leave alone.The "solitary" refers to himself.

"Mother, I will hand over my brother to you! Please take care of him in the days to come. I will give my dowry to you! I only ask you for one thing! In the future, when my brother has a child, the second A boy for the Bai family!"

"I know, I know everything! I promise you whatever you say!" The woman, who didn't know whether it was Yuanchen's grandmother or grandma, held the other hand of Yuanchen's mother and replied, regardless of the presence or absence of the head of the family, she took My future great-grandson promised one to someone else.He turned his head and shouted angrily to the little girls who were holding water basins and soup beside him: "Hurry up and see where your master is? Even if you drag him, drag him here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a nanny entered the room with a look of grief and indignation: "Old lady, the master was stopped by Aunt Liang when he entered the door, saying that Brother Xing had a fever!"

"Didn't you tell him his wife was waiting for him?"

"Yes. The master said... the master said..."

"What did he say? Say!"

"The master said that my wife's health has not been very good since she was born, and she must be the same as before. There will be nothing wrong if you come late, so I went directly to Aunt Liang's yard."

"Pfft!" The woman lying on the bed spit out a mouthful of blood after hearing Mammy's answer, scaring her mother-in-law to call for the imperial physician to come in.But the woman who had just been sprayed with blood on the bed seemed to have gained strength all of a sudden, she became more energetic, and slowly sat up straight while holding her mother-in-law's hand.

"Mother-in-law, don't call me a doctor, and you don't need to invite the master. The greatest luck in my life is to have a good mother-in-law who treats me like my own daughter, and to have such a good child as my brother. My body is my own. It’s the clearest, and it’s estimated that it’s about this moment. The master doesn’t have me in his heart, and he will be mediocre to my brother in the future, so I want to ask you one thing, I want to give my brother a name, okay?”

"Okay! Say it!" Hearing his eldest daughter-in-law say this, Yuanchen's grandmother held back the tears in her eyes and agreed again.

"Yulu. I hope that in the future, my brother will have the virtue of beautiful jade with gentleness and benevolence, and the broad heart of being rich in earth and inheriting all things."

"Alright, let's call it Yulu! Let's call it Yulu!"

So Jiang Zining, who hadn't figured anything out yet, added another word called "Yulu".

The woman looked at the confused and ignorant flesh and blood sitting on the bed again, her eyes were full of reluctance, and she tried her best to look at her child.But this kind of concentration didn't last long, the light in the woman's eyes gradually dissipated, and finally she closed her eyelids as if falling asleep.Jiang Zining's heart skipped a beat, knowing that the woman was dead.

The mother-in-law, who had been holding back her tears, immediately yelled when she saw her.Just because of the sobs in his voice, Jiang Zining could only guess that it was the name of the woman who had just died.At this time, two men, one old and one young, were arguing outside the house.

"You go in for me!"

"Father! Brother Xing is also your grandson! He has a fever. Is it right for me to go and see him as a father? Bai's illness has been repeated for two or three years, and this day is not bad!"

Jiang Zining guessed that the two people outside the house were the husband and in-laws of the dead woman.Sure enough, the woman who was guarding the bed suddenly stood up and strode out of the house: "You don't have to come! You don't have to come anymore! Your wife has already gone!"

Pausing for a while, seeing his son turn pale with shock at his words and wanting to go into the house, he said again: "I am a good relative! I almost ruined my youngest son's marriage back then! Later, he climbed into my elder son's Bed! I wouldn't let that shameless Liang's son enter the genealogy even if I bumped my head to death today!"

"Mother! Ru'er is your niece! Why don't you know how to love her?" The man stopped to enter the house, obviously not sad about the life and death of the woman in the house, but more concerned about whether the other son would Questions about genealogy.

"I don't have such a shameless niece!"

When the people outside the house were arguing, Jiang Zining climbed two steps forward and touched Yuanchen's mother's face, feeling a sense of unreasonable sadness in his heart.He should have transmigrated, and he transmigrated into a big family.Just by looking at the decorations and costumes, it is really hard to tell what dynasty it is, but from the fact that I can understand these people's speech, it shows that the accent here is no longer purely Sino-Tibetan, at least it was later mixed in from the Central Plains The accent of modern Chinese after the Altaic language family.

Judging from the situation just now, I should be the only child of my mother.As a daughter-in-law, a mother should be loved by her in-laws, but not her husband.The husband should have liked his cousin and accepted her as his aunt.The mother's surname is Bai, and there may be no male Ding Chengsi in her natal family, so she wants to give birth to a child to her natal family in the future.

These details are really revealing unreasonable places everywhere.It stands to reason that the aunt and the old lady should be from the same family, so they should love that aunt more.But it seems that the old lady is more satisfied with her mother.Moreover, the adoption of a great-grandson to the in-laws, so easy to agree, does not conform to the rules of the big family.Or, is there something hidden?

Jiang Zining, who was hiccupping much less frequently, did not see his father in the end, but was carried to the next door so that others could change and dress his mother Bai.

After waiting for a while, someone came in and changed him into white coarse cloth clothes, but because he was a child with tender flesh, he specially put on a fine silk inner coat and a fine cotton middle shirt.Then put a sack on his head, and carried him out of the house to the front hall.

Because Mrs. Bai was not well a year ago, the old lady Mrs. Liang hoped to make a breakthrough, so she prepared funeral utensils, coffins and memorial tablets.I thought that the eldest daughter-in-law would not be needed after a year, but when she was planning to deal with the matter, Bai went there.

The matter of sending people to report funerals was arranged by the internal and external housekeepers, and the old lady was a little depressed under the great grief and anger.It's just that as an elder, you shouldn't guard the spirit of the younger generation, but Jiang Zining, who was worried about losing his mother at a young age, forced himself to sit in the middle of the room to watch over him.

At this time, Jiang Zining was finally able to calm down and calm down.After calming down, Jiang Zining unexpectedly obtained the memory of the original body.Although it was only a memory from the perspective of the original body, it also gave Jiang Zining an understanding of his own life experience.

Jiang Zining's grandfather was the Marquis of Pingyuan. After the establishment of the dynasty, there were still rebellious armies everywhere, so his grandfather joined a pair of cousin generals, and finally won the title of Marquis of Pingyuan with his military exploits.

Old Hou Ye was originally from a local family, but his family was in decline, and he was engaged to the Liang family, who was also from the same family.Mrs. Liang was one of the most handsome and well-bred in the Liang family at that time, so the Liang family was naturally unwilling to marry Mrs. Liang to a person whose future was uncertain.Later, Liang's parents gritted their teeth and gave half of their property to their daughter as a dowry in order not to break their promises and not willing to let their daughter marry and suffer.

Liang's parents had no heirs, so they could only adopt one from the family, who was counted as Liang's brother.This brother was very upset because Mr. Liang took away most of the family's property.So after the Liang family was completely defeated due to the war, they took their children to the capital to join their "sister".

At this time, the Liang family was already Mrs. Pingyuanhou, and Pingyuanhou had four children, three boys and one girl, namely Jiang Mingbo, Jiang Mingzhong, Jiang Mingshu, and Jiang Jimei.Jiang Mingbo and Jiang Mingzhong were already married at that time, Jiang Mingshu was also engaged, and Jiang Jimei would also get married in the year after next and was preparing to marry.

Because of thinking of "brother" for his adoptive parents, Liang was very close to his brother's family.Thinking that my younger brother's daughter, Xiao Liang, is good-looking, well-bred and well-bred, she will have a good husband's family in the future, so she came to the mansion to train her.On weekdays, the cost of food and clothing is the same as that of his daughter Jiang Jimei.

It's just that for some reason, a few months later, it was reported that his youngest son, Uncle Jiang Ming, wanted to regret the marriage because of his affection for Xiao Liang.After a long time of uproar, Marquis Pingyuan almost became the laughing stock of the people in the capital, and his in-laws almost broke off the engagement.

In the end, after Mrs. Liang used all means to calm everything down, she invited the female relatives of her lover to come to the mansion to make contact with each other. After a mistake, Mrs. Liang, who had already been sent home, was in Mrs. Bai's main room. He accomplished a good deed with his eldest son, Jiang Mingbo, and attracted guests.

Liang's hands trembled with anger, and Bai's miscarriage was also stimulated.During Bai's confinement, Jiang Mingbo made a fuss about accepting Xiaoliang, which caused Bai's health to be hidden.Later, she was finally raised, and three months later, Xiaoliang was pregnant!

During Bai's three months of recuperation, Liang was afraid that Bai would be sad, and several times led people to ask Xiao Liang to kill the child, and finally Jiang Mingbo actually hid Xiao Liang.

Seeing that the trouble was getting worse, Mrs. Bai discussed with her mother-in-law, and for the sake of her family's reputation, she should bring Mrs. Xiaoliang closer to the mansion.Only then did the rumors all over the capital dissipate a little.

As for Mrs. Bai, Mrs. Bai and Jiang Mingbo are destined to be baby relatives.His father died early, and there is still a brother and a brother in the family.The Bai family was also a high-ranking official stationed in the Southwest, but because of the factional disputes in the imperial court, the elder brother died in the enemy's battle because of insufficient food and grass, and the younger brother led the troops to rescue him, but no one was alive or dead.In today's Bai family, apart from the Bai family, there is only one old concubine Bai who came to accompany the emperor when he was alive.

This old concubine Bai is also a woman with a tough heart.Since ancient times, it is inevitable for generals to go out and family members to stay in Beijing.If there is someone with outstanding military merits, ordering the women in his family to enter the palace is also the emperor's intention to control the army.Concubine Bai was Bai's aunt, she entered the palace before she was fifteen years old, and became the emperor's wife who was over half a hundred years old at that time.

After the death of the Bai family, the emperor felt pity for the white concubine, and remembered that the white concubine drank a bowl of soup for the queen so that the queen and the later little princess were safe, but he could not conceive, so Bai Shi, who was only five or six years old at the time, was allowed to enter the palace with his mother to comfort the concubine's longing for relatives.Because the Bai family has no descendants, it was even joked that one of the future sons of the Bai family would be assigned to inherit the Bai family.

Concubine Bai, who was only ten years old at the time and was still an ordinary prince because she couldn't have children, ignored her as the birth mother. After she had a younger brother, she ignored him, and her adoptive mother wanted a child of her own, so she didn't care about him. Heart.One who is full of maternal love and has nowhere to show it, one who is devoted to admiration and no one cares about it, and two people who have no blood relationship become a pair of "mother and son".Later, when he was getting older, he said some unpleasant words, which apparently alienated Concubine Bai.But Mrs. Bai also had a relationship with Jinjin, who was the prince at that time, and even introduced her best friend Wu Shi to Jinjin at the three feasts later.So the queen is also Bai's handkerchief.

With such a friendship background, even if Mrs. Bai does nothing, as long as she is still the eldest daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, she can help Jiang Mingbo a lot in his official career. Heart.It was also because of the previous emperor's joke that although there was no clear decree, basically everyone who should know knew it, so the old lady agreed to let Jiang Zining inherit the Bai family after giving birth.

The Bai family didn't always suffer from poor health.Otherwise, how could the Bai family lead the army to fight?It's just that it's probably because of genetics, the Bai family seems to have a feeling of being slim and independent!This also makes Bai's impression of being a bit weak.However, since the incident with Aunt Liang, Bai's heart has been pent up, but she has really started to feel weak.

Although Jiang Zining was born later, the long-term depression was hindered by the longevity, coupled with the root cause of the disease caused by the confinement in the early years and the anger of Aunt Liang when Jiang Zining was born, this is why Jiang Zining is only five years old now. , He vomited blood and died at a young age.

After Bai's funeral, the old lady became seriously ill because of her age and having left home for many years, and because she had been worrying about her eldest son for these years, she showed some signs of stroke.

Under the pain, negligence is inevitable.Before Bai's departure, Prime Minister Bai and internal and external officials were responsible for the details of the family's affairs.But after Mrs. Bai was gone, the old lady had another stroke, so Jiang Mingbo decided to hand over the housekeeping to Mrs. Xiao Liang.

"Brother, eat quickly. If you are hungry after eating, I will go to the big kitchen to ask for it! Chef Wang said that although Aunt Liang asked you to cook your food with coarse grains to show your filial piety, the wife just went , he is not a villain who plays the game according to the wind, and he will definitely make my brother full! Besides, if the coarse grains are well cooked, they can also be compared to fine food." The girl who waits on Jiang Zining is called Xiang Ye, She is the younger sister of one of the four major maids married by the Bai family. She is a bit noisy and stubborn, but she is devoted to Jiang Zining.

"I still don't want it anymore. Mother Wang, Mother Li, and sister Bai Zhi have all been sent out of the house! If Chef Wang is also sent away, I won't be able to eat hot food." Jiang Zining replied in a childish voice. road.

Speaking of this fragrant leaf, I couldn't help getting angry: "That aunt started to send the wife's people away, and there was another time when the wife saw this and wagged his tail at the aunt! When the wife was there, I never Treat them a little worse! Now, just listen to a concubine's words and show the face of the serious master at home! Asking for hot water is still sloppy!"

"Fragrant leaf, don't be angry, my second and third aunts don't care, my grandmother is still suffering from a stroke, and my grandfather is leaving Beijing again. It's just that the world is so cold." Jiang Zining looked at it very openly.His current figure basically looks like a ball because of the love of his grandmother and mother.Obesity in childhood is also very unhealthy, just to lose weight.Moreover, coarse grains and miscellaneous grains are more beneficial to the body than refined grains. He wants to take this opportunity to nourish his body well!Mrs. Xiao Liang thought that if he underestimated himself in food, he would make himself weak, but he wanted to grow strong and live a long life!

"My brother!" Looking at the chubby young master in front of him, he comforted himself. If Xiangye hadn't cared about the difference between master and servant, she would have almost kissed Jiang Zining's fleshy face. I don’t spend much on the monthly money, if I really can’t get enough to eat, I’ll go out and buy food for my brother!”

"You girl talk nonsense!" The old mother who had been listening outside the house for a long time entered the room, saluted Jiang Zining respectfully, and then said with a smile, "Brother, don't listen to her nonsense from a little girl. You don’t know how or who made the food, so don’t eat it lightly. You can’t just eat things from outside, and you can’t just eat what you eat at home. In the future, you can tell the old slave what you want to eat. The old slave has served the old lady for decades Yes, I still know how to work on the desk, and the old lady has a small kitchen in the yard, which is not as crowded as the big kitchen."

Jiang Zining nodded: "I won't eat casually." Not eating things of unknown origin is also the basic education that modern children receive. As a five-year-old child, it is right not to eat randomly.Jiang Zining didn't understand the deep meaning of Mammy's words at all.

Although Jiang Zining didn't understand the specific meaning of Nanny's words, he knew that it was impossible for her to make such a trip just to say such a thing.So I asked again: "What's the matter with Mammy?"

"It's nothing, it's just that my brother hasn't come to the old lady's yard to say hello for a long time. The old lady is worried about it, so let the old slave come and take care of her."

"Brother Xing said, I have filial piety, but I'm still sick and consumptive! I can't let my grandmother be like my mother, so I can't go to my grandmother." Then he burst into tears.Although Jiang Zining was calm and tolerant because of his professional mentality in his previous life, it does not mean that he is weak, and he will not unconditionally tolerate all malice towards him.

The elder brother Xing he was talking about was the eldest son of the concubine named Jiang Zixing by Jiang Mingbo.This is also him giving Jiang Zixing eye drops.Who made him run in front of him to show off his power and say: "Your sick and consumptive mother is finally dead, my mother is going to be a wife, your mother is sick and consumptive, and so are you! That old man is about to be the same as your mother! I'm going to kick you out!"

Although the old lady was more satisfied with Bai's family because of various interests, but in order to keep this satisfaction going, Jiang Zining didn't mind saying a few more words or pretending to cry.

Mammy didn't say much, but after coaxing Jiang Zining, she went to the table and opened the food box to take a look.Boiling hot water is placed on the lower layer of the food box to ensure that the food will not hurt the master's spleen and stomach because it is cold. Although it is only vegetarian coarse grain noodles, it is obviously made with care and has a strong aroma.Mammy picked out another section of noodles and tasted it, knowing that although it was coarse grains, it must have been ground with a small mill for more than a dozen times, so she watched Jiang Zining eat the noodles with satisfaction.After he finished eating, he followed Xiang Ye from the big kitchen of the food delivery box meeting out of the yard.

"Xiang Ye, I'm young, I don't know how to talk. In the past, I liked the old lady the most. To be honest, what did Rixing say that made me dare not go to the old lady?"

Xiangye was thinking about Jiang Zining's order not to make the old lady worry about getting worse, and at the same time was angry because of all the grievances my brother had experienced these days, and finally repeated Jiang Zixing's words that day: "Don't blame our brother Son, he was honest, he thought that if he went to the old lady, something would happen to the old lady, so he didn't go! He also suppressed us not to speak out, because my brother heard the imperial doctor said that the old lady could not be angry, so these few days Tian didn't complain a word, and instead made us feel angry..." At the end, Xiang Ye also cried.

Momo pointed Xiang Ye's forehead and reprimanded: "You are confused! If there is anyone in this house who really loves you, it is the old lady and the old master! If you don't go to the old lady, if the two people are separated, brother It will be even more difficult! If your sister hadn’t knelt down on behalf of the first wife as a master and servant, you are also a caring brother, and I must punish you! If the old lady didn’t send me here today, I don’t know How much grievance will my brother suffer!"

Only then did Xiang Ye come to her senses: "Mommy, what do you think we should do now?"

Mammy tapped Xiangye's forehead again: "I never heard of any duke's mansion that is owned by my aunt! You're a dumbass!"

One sentence made Xiangye burst into tears and laughed, and after a blessing, she turned around and went to the big kitchen to deliver food boxes.Seeing Xiang Ye running away, Mammy was a little worried, and couldn't help speeding up her pace back to the old lady's yard.

"My eldest grandson! You have to be tortured by that bitch!" The old lady Liang was really impatient, and even said the uncivilized words "bitch".Turning around, she glared at the second daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law who were in the second seat: "You just let that unworthy thing embarrass my Hou family! You didn't even tell me!"

The old lady is over forty now, so she will inevitably be a little stubborn and always irritable.Seeing the two daughters-in-law just kept apologizing, I felt bored for a while, and told the two to leave quickly.

Jiang Jimei, who was attending the funeral of his sister-in-law and hadn't returned yet, stepped forward and patted the old lady on the back; "Mother, don't be angry! It's fine if you don't listen to the doctor's orders, but you must not waste Brother Ning's heart." !"
