Jia Cong, the concubine who crossed the Red Chamber
Chapter 24 Pearl's Death
When Pearl was at a loss, she heard Musk Moon screaming, "What's wrong! Come on, come on!"
Pearl was taken aback, and hurriedly covered Musk Moon's mouth and kept silent, but it was too late.Everywhere in the garden, there were maids passing by, as well as women who were tending flowers and plants. When they heard Musk Moon screaming, they all gathered around, and at a glance, Pearl was covering Musk Moon's mouth.
Seeing people coming, Pearl knew that the matter was irreversible, so she let go of her hand quickly, and told what happened just now with a panicked look.Everyone also knew what happened back then, and some didn't.Those who knew heard Jia Li's name, bowed their heads and chanted to Buddha, and hurried away.Seeing this, those who didn't know asked for acquaintances one after another.
It's still possible for musk moon to succeed. He took Baoyu by himself, asked Pearl to take jadeite, and hurried to Jiamu's yard.For such a big event, there was already a commotion in the garden, and Mother Jia naturally knew about it.Therefore, as soon as Musk Moon and the others reached the gate of Jiamu's Courtyard, they saw Nanny Lai coming up to welcome them.
They hurriedly put Baoyu back into the room, gave him a pillow, and he fell asleep; helped him up, and he sat down; when tea was poured, he drank tea.Seeing him like this, everyone panicked for a while.Jia Mu shouted: "Musk Moon and Pearl! Tell me, what's going on!"
Musk Moon hurriedly knelt down and replied: "Going back to the old lady, it was very humid when I walked to the water. I persuaded the master to come back. The second master may be in a good mood and wants to go again. I am thinking of Sister Fei Cui and Sister Pearl was there, so she came back to get a thick dress for Second Master, who would have thought that Second Master looked like this when she returned, and Sister Fei Cui was also a little bit wrong, so she hurriedly sent Second Master back."
Jia Mu snorted coldly: "So you are not only innocent, but have merit?" Then she turned to Pearl and shouted, "What have you done, you little hoof?"
At this time, Zhenzhu was already frightened and confused, thinking that after this incident, no matter what happens to Baoyu, she will definitely not be able to fall well.To put it bluntly, I only hope that Mother Jia can save her own life, which is luck.
Unexpectedly, when Jiamu heard this, her complexion changed drastically, and she asked sharply, "What does that child look like? How old is it? What kind of clothes are you wearing?"
Pearl always felt something strange, so she observed it attentively, and quickly described it carefully.Mother Jia's eyes were on fire, and she rushed over with a "crack" step, squeezed Pearl's hand, and asked in a sharp voice: "Who have you told this about! Hurry up! Don't miss a single one!"
Pearl's hand was in pain from being grabbed, as if the old lady had spent the rest of her life here, and her eye circles were instantly red.Seeing this, Mother Jia raised her hand and slapped her!Shocked, everyone in the room quickly looked down at their toes, and they didn't dare to make a sound. The old lady has always had a benevolent image, and she hasn't had such an attack on a young maid in more than 20 years.
Pearl was also frightened, trembling and speechless.Seeing this, Musk Moon hurriedly knelt down and said, "Go back to the old lady. When I went back, only Pearl and Jade were there, and there was no one else around. Later, when Pearl saw me, she burst into tears and told me about it. Many women and servants in the past heard about it, so I quickly pulled her back."
Mother Jia's eyes were like a knife, she gritted her teeth, pointed at Pearl and said sharply, "Come here, drag this hoof out, drag it into the garden and beat it to death! Tell everyone in the garden to watch, who dares to do this again?" Biography, go with her as a companion!"
Busily, two women pulled Pearl out, Pearl cried out in fright, hugged the door frame and refused to let go, desperately begging for mercy: "Old lady, please forgive me, I don't dare anymore, Old lady, please spare me! Second Lord, Second Lord!" Save me! I don't dare anymore!"
Jia Mu shouted: "Don't shut up! Drag it out, don't dirty my land!" After hearing this, everyone knew that they had heard something shameful, their legs were trembling, and their hearts were trembling with fear.
Suddenly someone replied: "The imperial doctor is here." Jia Mu hurriedly said: "Come in quickly."
In the past, Baoyu had a headache from time to time, and he also invited imperial physicians. Looking at the faces of Jia Mu, Jia Zheng, and Mrs. Wang, the imperial physicians were also willing to flatter them.But now that the second wife of the Jia family has become like this, Jia Baoyu is only a sinner, and he even bothered the imperial physician for consultation.Although the imperial physician was not happy, he knew that Jia's mother was very powerful, so he reluctantly sent Wang imperial physician to come here.
Jia Mu sat beside Baoyu, and Wang Taiyi hurried up to ask Jia Mu for her.He took Baoyu's hand, checked his pulse, and said, "This is a great fright. The phlegm has fascinated my heart for a while, and I need to take care of it slowly. Find out what is the reason for the fright, and solve it. alright."
Mother Jia didn't know about her stepmother, she just thought she was beaten by a little ghost, she was anxious, and hurriedly said: "In that case, please sit outside and prescribe the medicine. If it doesn't work, be careful, I will ask someone to smash the lobby of the Tai Hospital." .”
Doctor Wang was disdainful in his heart. Mother Jia said this before, and she would be terrified.But today's Jia Mu is just an old man who has lost the emperor's grace, and she dares to say something that smashes the imperial physician.However, those who see a doctor in the palace are the best at putting on airs, so they are naturally panicked, and when they prescribe the medicine, the efficacy of the medicine has been reduced by one and a half minutes.
After Wang Taiyi left, Jia Mu said to Sheyue: "You did a good job today. You have seen what happened to Pearl. In the future, you will serve Baoyu with your heart. Your future will be your own. If there is a mistake, Pearl will be yours. example!"
Sheyue kowtowed to thank Baoyu, but she didn't mention Baoyu's service.
Besides, Jiamu, after Wang Taiyi left, he quickly sent someone to invite Baoyu's mother-in-law, Ma Daopo, to come and see her.
It turned out that not long after Jia Huan was born, Aunt Zhou of the second room also had a baby.Mrs. Wang intended to push her out to fight Aunt Zhao, but she took the opportunity to get pregnant.Naturally, he hated her very much, and Jia Zheng was relieved that he had had children one after another in recent years, so he couldn't help but pay more attention to Aunt Zhou.
Aunt Zhou also had a pregnancy before, but later she had a miscarriage for no apparent reason. This time she was very careful and did not let Mrs. Wang find a chance to do it.She was conceived in October and was a boy. He had been very intelligent since he was a child. Jia Zheng loved him very much.When the child is one year old and catches the week, he catches a piece of ink.Jia Zheng was very proud, and decided to put the son on the genealogy, named Jia Li, and hugged Mrs. Wang.
At this moment, Mrs. Wang couldn't bear it anymore!
My own Baoyu caught Rouge when he caught Zhou, and was reprimanded by the master since he was a child, but the child of a bitch can have such a good life!When you are only one year old, you have to go to the family tree, and you are not afraid of not being able to support yourself!Still wanting to ask myself to raise this bastard, who has taken up half of the birthright, so I can compete with Baoyu in the future?
Just after Jia Zheng revealed that he wanted to flatter Jia Li, Jia's mother was also very dissatisfied, thinking that Jia Zheng was too biased towards the concubine and unfair to Baoyu.Looking for a reason, he sold Aunt Zhou when Jia Zheng was not at home.He also thought that it was the second child's flesh and blood, so he decided to take the child to Mrs. Wang.
When Mrs. Wang saw Jia's mother's move, she felt even more irritated.Aunt Zhou was dismissed, and when the ancestral hall was opened during the New Year's Eve, Jia Li had no mother, wouldn't she want to record it under her own name and become a legitimate son!Will Baoyu still have a place in front of Jia Zheng in that day?
When Jia Zheng came back, he was naturally unhappy to see that Aunt Zhou was gone.It's just that people are sent by their mothers, so can they still be disobedient?But I still couldn't let it go, and asked someone to inquire again, but unexpectedly, Aunt Zhou died of illness as soon as she left.Jia Zheng was in great grief, and it was Jia's mother who made the decision again. She took in Aunt Zhou's own sister and gave it to Jia Zheng. This is Aunt Zhou now.
Mrs. Wang was furious when she saw Jiamu's going out, not caring about her face at all.
Jia Li's death, like the other bastards who died young in the Jia family's century-old history, was silent and no one traced it.At noon one day, when everyone was taking a nap, Mrs. Wang went to Jiamu's place.Jia Li and the nanny who was waiting on him disappeared at some point. When Jia Zheng called for someone at night, everyone realized that they were not there and hurriedly looked for them.The frozen bodies of the two were eventually found in a pond.
After all, he was a concubine, and his biological mother was gone. Jia Zheng grieved for a while, and the matter was settled.
Jia's mother had issued a sealing order, so no one knew about the newcomers in recent years, and the name of the concubine who hadn't had time to be recorded in the genealogy in the future.Only Mrs. Wang's eldest maid, Fei Cui, who is now by Baoyu's side, dreams back in the middle of the night, remembering the black eyes of the child before he died, and often having nightmares.
Mother Jia asked Pearl carefully, and the child Baoyu met looked similar to Jia Li back then.If Jia Li was alive, he would be five or six years old by now, and he was about the right age.Because he died young, he specially prepared bright red clothes for burial. Speaking of fancy styles, the children Baoyu met wore the same clothes as Jia Li's at the beginning!
Pearl, Sheyue and others were still young at the time, and their status was not high enough, so it was impossible for them to know about the past.Fei Cui was so frightened that she was full of nonsense and delirious again. Mother Jia only thought that the child must have come to kill her, so she quickly sent someone to ask Ma Daopo to exorcise the evil spirits.
Unexpectedly, it led the wolf into the house.
Pearl was taken aback, and hurriedly covered Musk Moon's mouth and kept silent, but it was too late.Everywhere in the garden, there were maids passing by, as well as women who were tending flowers and plants. When they heard Musk Moon screaming, they all gathered around, and at a glance, Pearl was covering Musk Moon's mouth.
