There is a phoenix in the Red Chamber
Chapter 41
In the Xiping palace, the princess trembled with anger when she heard the servant's reply. The grandma brought a cup of tea, "Mother, don't be angry. If you want to come to Xue's house just because you care about it, you will be in chaos. It's also possible to be negligent for a while."
Although the grandma was persuading her, she was very happy in her heart.However, a descendant of an imperial merchant dares to come to her for power!That Mrs. Xue thought she was hiding it well, but with her careful thinking, who could she hide it from?
No matter how lowly Rui'er's status was, he was also the only heir of Dafang, not to mention that he was raised in his own house as soon as he was born, and his biological mother was smart, fearing that her own existence would delay her son's future, she committed suicide early on.
I have had nothing for so many years, the son and concubine have married countless times, and the house is full of women who only bloomed one flower and bore one fruit.Rui'er is the only hope for their husband and wife.It's just that the prince thinks that Rui'er's background is humble, and the princess prefers the second wife, so he has never invited the uncle to be his son.Although they are called by the princes and concubines in the mansion, the names are not right and the words are not right.
Although the two children of the second room were born on the same day, their bodies are the same as their own mothers who are full of 1 hearts and minds. They are very weak, and they don't look like longevity.
So it's been like this for so many years.
Who knew that the Hou family would die of an illness, and the concubine was partial to her second uncle, so before the end of a year, she tried to renew her second uncle. After thousands of choices, she chose the girl from the Xue family. Yes, it is easy to give birth.
The Xue family was also uplifting, and was happy to sit on the bed.This made the princess very happy, and she wished she could lift Mrs. Xue to the sky.
That Mrs. Xue looked dignified, stable, generous and decent, and she didn't show arrogance at all when being held up like this. She was still the same as before, virtuous and virtuous, and obeyed the times.
It's a pity that her careful thoughts can't be hidden from anyone in this big mansion.The princess is too lazy to argue with her, after all, the child in her stomach is the most important thing, and she has not taken action against the second uncle's heir.On the other hand, I don't think it's necessary. People who can't see past are very talented, so I don't need to do it myself.
No, wouldn't the people left behind by the Hou family make a move?
Moreover, one hit is sure to hit, and there will be no future troubles.
Whether it is the prince, the concubine, or the second master who is far away in the frontier, they know who did it, but they are wary and can only pretend that they don't know anything.
The Xue family's children were gone, and the princess immediately picked out a few daughters from good families and sent them to the second master.
The Xue family has become an abandoned son, but the Xue family did not keep their duties, and the whole city knew about the trouble.How stupid.
The concubine slammed the table, "Order it down, and say that the second grandma should rest in peace and rest, and don't disturb anyone who doesn't care."
Grandma replied gently, "Yes!"
When Aunt Xue came to visit Xue Baochai again, the concierge welcomed him in politely, invited him to a room, drank two cups of tea, and a nanny came out, saying that the imperial doctor said that the second grandmother wanted to rest, please My wife, please go back first.Wait until the second mistress is better, and then ask the wife in-law to talk.
Aunt Xue was invited out in such a daze.
Aunt Xue felt sad and didn't know who to tell.After much deliberation, I had no choice but to go to Jia's house to look for Wang Xifeng.
Wang Xifeng looked at the banknote in front of him, then at Aunt Xue who was looking sad, "What does Auntie mean?"
Aunt Xue said in the future, "I really don't know what I did wrong. A few days ago, the princess told me to go to Xie Bao girl often, but today I came to the door..." Aunt Xue said. She couldn't help wiping her tears, "Girl Feng, you have always been smart, you should think about it for Auntie, what went wrong."
Wang Xifeng sighed helplessly, "Auntie, it's you today, I just said that, if someone else, I wouldn't say anything again. Auntie, you..."
Wang Xifeng whispered a few words in Aunt Xue's ear, "A family like the Wang's Mansion pays attention to family and the prosperity of everything. These things are the most taboo. Auntie is also the same. How can you be so careless and spread the word!"
Aunt Xue's eyes widened, "I haven't revealed a single word. That's the palace, how dare I arrange it! And it's about Baochai, how could I do that!"
"Didn't it be leaked by my aunt? Who could it be? Even Baoyu's servants knew about it, and when Baoyu found out about it, Baoyu came to ask me, and I reprimanded the servants in my family. Gossip." Wang Xifeng made a troubled look.
Aunt Xue thought for a long time in a daze, and suddenly thought of someone coming, yes, no one would do this except her!Alright, sister, she is in trouble, instead of helping her out, she actually makes trouble!
Aunt Xue stood up abruptly, "Good boy, Auntie will remember you." Then she walked out.
Wang Xifeng pretended to chase after her, "Auntie, auntie!"
Aunt Xue has disappeared.
Wang Xifeng turned around triumphantly, put away the banknotes on the table, then called a little girl and asked her to go to the second wife's side to see if there was any news.
After a long while, the little girl came back, and said with joy, "Mrs. Xue went to my wife's place. For some reason, the two quarreled. Later, when the master went, Mrs. Xue and his wife quarreled even more. I got something, and there seemed to be applause. I also heard the master say that it must be returned, and then Aunt Xue left happily. The master became very angry, and then went to Aunt Zhao’s house. The second wife took a long time Let people enter the house. I heard that the second wife's room is full of broken porcelain."
Wang Xifeng was very happy to hear that.
Sure enough, when serving Mother Jia's meal at night, she learned that Mrs. Wang was unwell and could not come.
Mother Jia probably knew something, and she didn't say much. She just said to Baoyu, "You will greet me through the curtain later, for fear of getting sick. Your wife has always been strong, and she must be seriously ill, so she can't come." Yes. You say what I say, let her live well, and don't have to come to say hello during this time."
Jia Baoyu nodded, "Sister Yun, let's go together!"
Shi Xiangyun hummed.
When Jia Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun went, Mrs. Wang was lying on the bed, listening to Jia Baoyu's retelling of Jia's mother's words, Mrs. Wang was angry and hated. What she hated was Aunt Xue's loss of status and her nonsense, and it was Jia Zheng who was angry. How dare you do it!
She has grown so big, and she has never been slapped.Now that I am old and old, I was beaten!If this spreads out, what face will she have!Master Pian even forced her to collect all the money borrowed from Xue's family and return it back!
What to borrow?What was agreed at the beginning was a little love from the Xue family to the empress.Now I have the nerve to ask for it!It's really getting better and better!
But Aunt Xue's words also made Mrs. Wang terrified, "As the saying goes, barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes. I am already like this now, and I have nothing to be afraid of. But you are different. You are the mother of noble concubines. The headed wife of the Duke’s Mansion, you cherish your face. If you don’t pay back the money, I will immediately beat the gongs and drums and tell people all over the street that you are the second wife of the Jia family, the mother of the dignified concubine, and you will not pay back the money.”
Mrs. Wang wanted to threaten and lure her, but somehow Jia Zheng came and stood outside the door listening for a long time. At this moment, she kicked open the door and came in. She slapped Mrs. Wang directly, and sent Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue to the ground. They were all dumbfounded.Then he promised Aunt Xue that he would pay back the money.
Aunt Xue knew that since Jia Zheng had opened his mouth, Mrs. Wang would definitely return the money.So he walked away triumphantly.
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang were left behind.
Mrs. Wang didn't want to recall the rest. This was definitely the most humiliating part of her life.
Mrs. Wang closed the door because of shame, and Aunt Xue came to the door again seeing that there was no movement.After Jia Zheng heard about it, he ran to Mrs. Wang and yelled again, and said that if Mrs. Wang's words and deeds hurt the empress and the reputation of the mansion, he would divorce his wife!
Mrs. Wang was frightened and angry, and fell ill.
But even so, Jia Zheng was still relentless.
Mrs. Wang can't do anything, and she is also afraid that because she has caused trouble to the empress, it is purely a fluke that the empress can get through the incident last time.If it happens again, she dare not imagine.
Mrs. Wang came to Wang Xifeng and asked her how much money she could use in her father's office?
Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes, "Originally there was still 3 taels. The old lady spent 800 taels for her birthday. And the empress's Mid-Autumn Festival gift cost 5000 taels. Eunuch Zhou borrowed 800 taels, and eunuch Liang borrowed it." 500 taels..."
Mrs. Wang felt a pain in her head, "Just tell me, how much is left now?"
"There are still less than 8000 taels. Although there is still a sum of money coming into the account next year, there are still preparations for the New Year and the gift for the empress." Wang Xifeng said directly.
Mrs. Wang had a headache and said, "Why is this the situation?" Unless it was a last resort, she didn't want to use her own money, so she could only think of other ideas.
"Feng girl, at this point, I have no choice but to tell you the truth. When the garden was built, the Xue family gave a sum of money. It was agreed to be for the empress. But now, your aunt Xue turned her face and refused to recognize anyone. , and asked me to pay back the money. The money was spent in the garden, where did I get the money to pay her back. You know the money in the public house, and you can’t move it casually. I thought, do you have money in your hand, first Borrow it and return it to Xue's family. Your aunt Xue is also pitiful, Pan'er is not up to date, and Bao girl?"
Wang Xifeng sighed, "My wife didn't say it earlier. My brother wrote a letter last month, saying that the family is almost in trouble, and my parents can't even get the money to make clothes for my birthday. I just responded a little late, my father So I wrote a letter and scolded me. No, there is only 2 taels of cash in the account, and I took it all out and sent it to my brother. I dare not tell the second master, for fear that the second master will be angry. My wife must help I'm hiding it."
Wang Xifeng's words were half true and half false. A few years ago, Wang Ren wrote to ask her for money, but Wang Xifeng directly forwarded the letter to Wang Ziteng.I don't know how Wang Ziteng did it. After that, neither Wang Ren nor Wang Zisheng dared to write to her asking for money.
Mrs. Wang frowned, this is really something that elder brother and nephew can do, "You really don't have any money?"
"The silver is gone now. If my wife needs it urgently, I will take out the gold collar and pawn it for a few hundred taels of silver." Wang Xifeng said.Anyway, no matter what you say, I only have two words, no money.how can you
