The Hairpin of the Red Chamber

Tanchun already knew about Mrs. Wang calling her housekeeper. Hearing these women's complaints, he sneered and didn't reply. He passed through the Ning Mansion all the way, but saw that the mansion was bleak, far from what it used to be.The plaque had been removed long ago, and all the long benches at the gate of the former mansion were removed, only three or two family members were standing in cloth clothes.

The cars of several people entered through the corner gate all the way, and went directly to Youshi's place——Jia Rong attacked Jue, and Youshi shouldn't be the housekeeper, but Jia Rong either stayed behind closed doors or went to his grandfather to ask for advice from Jindan. None of Sun and Sun can be relied on, and they can only rely on Youshi to take care of them.

When Tanchun and the others entered the house, they saw Youshi's old lady and two younger sisters inside. This old lady You could not be regarded as a serious relative in Jia's mansion. In the past, because she wanted to come to Ningfu to enjoy the autumn breeze, she was quite flattering. Now I see you The Ning Mansion was defeated, and the You family was in charge, and gradually put on some airs of elders, seeing the girls here, they didn't get up, just smiled and said: "You are back, it's good to talk with your sister-in-law .”

Tanchun paid attention to Xichun's reaction, seeing that she was not as sad as before, so he let Yingchun and Xichun go in. You couldn't hide the sadness on his face, and sat there and talked to a few people. The second sister and the third sister You often come to the mansion, and Yingchun and Tanchun would talk to them. Youshi took advantage of the conversation there, and whispered to Xichun: "The mansion encountered this incident, and it is precisely to reduce the use of money. When spending time with the family, it is inevitable that some people will make trouble, if the girl finds it annoying, it is fine to come and stay with us for a few days."

Xichun was quite moved, she just took a look at the two older sisters over there, Youshi said: "The family is separated at the other end, I'm afraid the second younger sister will have to live back for a while, it's okay."

Xichun nodded lightly, and You Shi saw that she agreed, so she wrote down the matter.At that time, Jia Rong sent another person to say: "Aunts, come here. My nephew is supposed to come to say hello, but he is not in good health recently, so as not to overwhelm the aunts with his illness, let's not come here, and go to see the aunts another day." Say hello face to face."

Tan Chunyin asked, "What's wrong with him? Did you hire a doctor?"

You Shi said: "Ask someone to take a look, and they say it's nothing serious, you just need to take some medicine indiscriminately."

Tanchun saw that she didn't want to mention it, so he didn't ask in detail, and talked to Third Sister You about the fashionable styles in Beijing. She talked about flowers and other things, and Yingchun talked about the weather and seasons with the second sister You. Mrs. You made up a sentence here, intervened there, responded to Youshi for a while, and instructed Yingchun for a while, and kept talking. While talking, Chun looked at You Shi, and saw that she had a sad face and showed a little tiredness, so she got up first to say goodbye, Yingchun and Xichun also got up, and You Shi said: "Fourth younger sister, please stay with me tonight. It's been a long time since our aunt and sister-in-law have seen each other, and your brother left some words for you."

Xichun stopped and said nothing, Tanchun and Yingchun both said: "The fourth younger sister, you stay here first, and then go back to the old lady's place in a few days."

Mrs. You wanted to stay here for a few days, but when she saw that Mrs. You was arranging people there, she had no time to pay attention to her, she was still standing and wanted to say something, but Third Sister You grabbed her sleeves, and Third Sister You pulled her old mother to bid farewell to her elder sister , The three of them drove away first.

Jia Amnesty is a bull-tempered man. Hearing that Xichun had returned to Ningfu, he had to go to Jia Mu to make a fuss, saying that he wanted to take Yingchun back to live. The daughter trembled with anger when she took the words back. While Tanchun was comforting Jia's mother, she remembered what Baochai had told her - that year when Jia Amnesty delivered the Spring Festival to Sun Shaozu, and when the fragrance disappeared and the jade died, everyone in the house sighed. Jia Amnesty lost his title, and Sun Shaozu was determined not to look down on Yingchun, but Baochai was terrified. Jia Amnesty was like before, and sent Yingchun without saying a word. Thinking that the only reliable sisters in the mansion were Tanchun, she waited for her. Before she returned to the mansion, she specially asked a few words. Since Tanchun had paid attention to it, when he heard that Jia Amnesty was going to take Yingchun back, he inevitably became suspicious. Afraid that Jiamu would agree, he hurriedly said: "We have always been sister-in-law Zhu. I brought it with me, and suddenly changed the place, afraid that my second sister would not be used to it. Besides, my uncle in the mansion was always busy with affairs, and he didn't have much time to come in. Brother Lian was a man, so it was not convenient. Sister Feng was always sick now. Only by performing filial piety in front of the old lady on behalf of the uncle, can the old lady be less hugged, if the second sister is picked up at once, the old lady will miss it."

Jia She suddenly heard what the niece said, squinted his eyes, and said abruptly: "Ms. Xing is not doing well recently, and no one is in charge of the family. I want to ask her to go back and take care of the family affairs."

This is so false that even Jia Mu frowned and said: "People in your room don't come in several times a year. I want to see you, but I can't see you, so I have to point to Ying'er and talk. Now even Ying'er You also want to pick it up, do you want to be separated from me at ease?"

Seeing that Mother Jia blamed Xiaoyi, Jia Amnesty made fun of it, and flung her sleeves away.

Mother Jia dismissed her, and Fang turned to look at Tanchun. Seeing Mother Jia's eyes, Tanchun rushed forward, took the beauty fist in Yuanyang's hand and beat her lightly for Mother Jia, saying, "Old lady, granddaughter has something to do." want to say."

Mother Jia paused, and Yuanyang sent the little girls out to kick shuttlecocks. She stood at the door, Tanchun thought about her words, and said slowly: "I shouldn't say this, but everyone is getting older every day. , Second Sister...It's time for Jiji too."

Mother Jia shook her hand and sent Tanchun off, saying, "I'm tired, go and have a rest by yourself first."

Tanchun got up slowly, lowered his hands and withdrew. When he reached the door, he quietly raised his eyes and saw Jia Mu sitting in a chair with her hands on her knees, her old face was covered with wrinkles. She is more than ten years older than a few months ago.

The big house was in decline and everyone was listless, but Mrs. Xing was not as low as Jia She and Jia Lian because she was able to take care of the house. While laying off redundant staff, she also sent out many of Sister Feng's confidantes while reducing expenses. He ordered the whole family, from aunts, concubines, concubines and sisters Ping'er, to sweeping women and fire girls, to be a number of clerks every day, and they were not allowed to wear their own clothes, shoes and socks. Expenditures from the mansion caused complaints from all over the place. Within a few months, there were more than ten or twenty people who went to Sister Feng's place to complain openly and secretly.

Sister Feng went against her previous temper, closed the door to ignore these complaints, and pretended to be resigned. Madam Xing became more proud when she saw her, and she asked someone to transfer people in Sister Feng's room to work, but Sister Feng didn't bother. Mrs. Xing became more and more instigating. Even Ping'er and Feng'er told her to drink around. Sister Feng just watched coldly, pretending to be a virtuous person. At this time, Fang slowly asked people to spread the word out. The prince Teng's family had an accident in Jia's house. Although he made a lot of efforts, he was a bit suspicious after all, so it was not good to get too close. After avoiding the limelight, the two masters reunited. Get moving yourself.

Mrs. Wang Ziteng came to the mansion several times. When she wanted to see Sister Feng, she said she was ill and she couldn't see her. When she asked Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wang hesitated to speak.She secretly paid attention and asked people to inquire at Jia's mansion. At that time, Jia's mansion was not repaired inside and outside, and people were in a state of panic. There were many escaped slaves, and the old rules were gradually loosened. Situation—Generally speaking, the rumors always became more and more bizarre, and they fell into her ears. Sister Feng's situation was already many times more miserable than the reality. Mrs. Wang Ziteng was furious when she heard it. After saying this in my ear, even Wang Ziteng was furious, and told his wife a few words. The next day, Wang Ziteng's wife brought twenty or thirty strong women to visit Jiamu.
