The Kangping Life of Mrs. Xing in Honglou

Walking through the bustling crowds and crossing the blue brick road, you will find Ningrong Street. There are only two families in this street, Shezao Ningguo Mansion and Shezao Rongguo Mansion, hence the name Ningrong Street.At this time, the majestic gate of Shezao Rongguo Mansion was closed, and only the small corner gate in the southeast was seen frequenting servants holding red things and happy faces. It can be seen that there was a happy event in the mansion. Will get married later.

A house in the southeast corner of the mansion is completely different from the festive atmosphere in the mansion. The hall is full of mess, and the male master Jia She can be heard angry and scolding in the distance. A middle-aged woman kneeling in the hall is none other than his stepwife Xing Madam, there are a group of outstanding concubines and maidservants standing around.

"Mrs. Xing, you stupid woman. As a mistress, you are useless. You even dare to dodge Lian'er's marriage. If you don't put your heart into it, what's the use of marrying you? You really come from a young family and have no knowledge." The middle-aged man hated He threw away the concubine Song's hand who wanted to comfort her in hatred, and said cruelly that he was extremely dissatisfied with this stepwife. He had been in the house for more than ten years and had not had a son and a half daughter. He also likes to be picky and sharp, behaves chaotically, and can't handle slaves, these are not important, but he still likes to be strong, and loves money like his life.

"My lord, who did you listen to say that Lian'er is the son of Xijue, and I have no children, so I have to rely on him in the future. Now his marriage is the most important thing, how can I ignore my own body, It’s just that I occasionally feel the cold, feel unwell, feel weak all over, and can’t do anything, please learn from me.” The middle-aged woman knelt in front of the man, sobbing and defending, if she added a hat of not treating her ex-wife and son-in-law well, she would be ashamed to see him. people.

"Master, calm down, it hurts your health. Although my wife is dissatisfied with the second master's marriage to the second wife's niece, she will not be lazy. After all, the second master's marriage is the top priority in the house, and the old lady likes Miss Wang very much." " Standing aside, the young and charming aunt Song relied on the fact that she gave birth to a concubine, and boldly persuaded her. The sarcasm and malice in her eyes revealed her real purpose. Unexpectedly, she is not happy, is it because she is worried that her daughter-in-law is from a high-ranking family, she will not be able to handle it, and she doesn't think about her virtue, if she can handle that, the maids in the room can put their noses in the face.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the man became even more angry and kicked the woman over. The woman's head just hit the sharp corner of the table, and the scarlet color was reflected on the pale face, revealing sadness.The pale face did not arouse the man's pity. Seeing the woman's embarrassment, the man's eyes were cold, and he said coldly: "Mr. Xing, since you are weak, you should stay in the courtyard and take care of yourself. The marriage of Lian'er I will tell my mother right now, and let her take care of it." After speaking, he shook his sleeves and left.

The woman didn't care about the injury on her head at all, she knelt on the ground and turned around, crying in the direction where the master left: "Master, I was really wronged."

Aunt Song, who had pleaded just now, walked softly in front of the woman, squatted down, pretended to wipe the blood on the woman, but actually pressed her forcefully towards the wound, seeing the woman throbbing in pain, she quickly withdrew her hand and said, "Ma'am, look The servant is clumsy, don't worry about it, if you ask the servant to tell you, why bother you? It's not that you don't know the master's temper, even if you are dissatisfied with the second mistress, you don't have to pretend to be sick and make the master angry. It’s really worth the candle.”

After finishing speaking, he said to the servants standing aside: "You blind people, why are you still standing? Didn't you see that the wife is still sitting on the ground? Hurry up and help the wife back to the room." While helping Mrs. Xing , seemingly caring, only Mrs. Xing's bruised handprint on the arm under her clothes shows her sincerity. The injured woman was seriously ill and lost blood, and her body was limp. She wanted to get rid of Mrs. Song, but she had no strength. With the help of the maidservant, she staggered back to the room. The concubine Song looked at the lady's back, raised the corners of her mouth triumphantly, and left with a handkerchief. She had to go back to get ready.

This scene spread throughout the whole house in a short time, and everyone reacted differently. Jia Zheng, the second son of the main house owner, just frowned.The hostess of the main house, Mrs. Wang, was secretly proud that she was really an idiot. She took a sip from her teacup, covered the smile at the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, and immediately adjusted her facial expression, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and said to the mother-in-law beside her: "Sister-in-law is injured!" , How good is this, brother really, even if you are dissatisfied with sister-in-law, you can't do anything, this Lian'er's wedding is coming soon, seeing blood will add some bad luck, tell the people below, and don't talk nonsense."

Mrs. Shi has many eyes and ears, and the matter of the eldest son came to her ears in no time, she just nodded and said that she knew it, then turned her head away, pretended not to know, and waited for her eldest son to come to the door.

Mrs. Shi is very displeased with this inconspicuous eldest son. When he was born, he almost died. He was raised by his mother-in-law since he was a child, and he was not close to her. , but did not do a serious thing, and even lowered the title left by her ancestors by one level, which is no match for the youngest son she raised by her side since she was a child. Yu Yin rewarded a foreign worker from the Ministry of Industry.

There is also Mrs. Xing, who can't get on the stage the most, can't see the situation clearly, is bitter and mean, and hasn't stopped after entering the house. Lian'er's wedding is coming soon, and there is an incident at this juncture. What do the in-laws think of this, Jia The family is no better than in previous years, and the Wang family is on the rise. If the Wang family knows this, Jia's mother will stop thinking about it.

After a while, Jia Amnesty arrived, and after seeing the ceremony, Jia's mother said slowly: "Boss, why are you here at this time?"

"My son came here to report important matters. Lian'er's happy days are approaching. The Xing family came from a small family. He can't get on the stage and is not good enough to be a director. In addition, he has recently contracted a cold and is weak and hard to work. Lian'er's marriage will not be possible. Sloppy, the son begs the mother to take care of it, and the mother is troubled, so the son is not filial." Although Jia Amnesty did not like Madam Xing, he did not want the eldest son to lose face in front of the old lady, so he covered up a few things for her.

"Boss, since Mrs. Xing is seriously ill, let's take good care of her. Lian'er's marriage is a major event, and I'm getting old and lack of energy. The second wife has taken care of everything in the mansion these years. Lian'er's marriage I think I'll let the second wife take care of it." The old lady has been in charge of the house for many years, even if the eldest grandson of the house is married, it is not her turn to take care of it. would lose face.

"Just do as mother said, this time I will trouble the second sibling." Although Jia Amnesty was unwilling, he had no other choice at the moment and nodded in agreement.

With Jia Amnesty's consent, Mother Jia sent someone to invite Mrs. Wang to explain everything clearly and order her to organize the wedding.After more than ten years, Mother Jia understood the temperament of the second daughter-in-law very well. She looked like a bodhisattva on the surface, but she was the most treacherous inside, and she did a lot of shady things, so she said in a serious manner: "Second daughter-in-law, Lian'er's marriage is left to you, and Lian'er will be a noble in the future, this marriage is a top priority, you must not lose face and make people laugh." The old lady's light words made Madam Wang's heart hurt, Chengjue, although their family lives in the main house, the Rongguo Mansion is still the big house after all.

"Yes, old lady, a daughter-in-law should do her best, not to mention that it has to do with the dignity of the mansion, Lian's daughter-in-law is still my niece." Mrs. Wang suppressed her sadness and said with a smile, with a benevolent look on her face.

Mrs. Xing, who was seriously injured on her forehead, was sent back to her room. She just asked a doctor for a hasty diagnosis and treatment, and then she lay on the bed and hated secretly. He dared to be so rampant in front of her because he gave birth to a concubine, and he didn't even think about it. This concubine, Jia Cong, is only one year old now, so it's hard to say whether he can grow up.

Touch the injured forehead, it can't leave scars, the master values ​​beauty the most, and can't help laughing at himself, she doesn't believe it, the master has no opinion on the niece of the first wife marrying the second wife, it's just because of Mr. Wang's face, no It's all about refusing, and I found a reason to get angry, but she ran into the gun. Aunt Song, that bitch, thought that with the master's favor and a bastard, she would be lawless?

He thought that when she recovered from illness, he would let Aunt Song look good and slowly fall asleep. Unfortunately, this idea could not be realized. In the middle of the night, Mrs. Xing’s high fever persisted, and the servants did not do their best. He fell into a coma, so he hurriedly called a doctor, but after taking the medicine, there was no effect, and it was getting more serious. By the third day, he had already shown his appearance of death, so he hurriedly called the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

"Physician Wang, what happened to our wife?" Hong Ling asked anxiously, tugging on the sleeve of the imperial physician.

"Girl, this madam suffers from wind and cold, coupled with excessive blood loss, delayed diagnosis and treatment, she is already terminally ill, the old man is incompetent, so I have to leave." The imperial physician shook his head and said.

"Prince doctor, please show kindness and save our wife." Several servant girls knelt down and stopped the doctor from leaving.

The imperial physician thought that the Rongguo Mansion was preparing for a wedding. At this critical moment, if the wife of the eldest room passed away, and the Rongguo Mansion was angry, he, the imperial physician, would also be implicated. Looking at the maid who was kneeling on the ground, he ruthlessly Xinchang said: "Don't stop the old man, this lady really can't do anything for the old man, you'd better make a plan early." She took the medicine boy and was about to leave.

Being stopped by a housemaid who cried and knelt, after all, she was moved with compassion. If something important happened at this time, all the maids and women in this room would not be able to get along well, so they could only leave behind a prescription.

Xing Yue regained a sliver of consciousness, only heard the sound of crying and noise outside the sky, tried to open her eyes, but her eyelids were heavy, no matter how hard she struggled, it was futile, she simply gave up, she must have been sent to the hospital , Thinking of her as a senior stay-at-home woman and leftover woman, she is busy with work all day long, and finally she has some free time without working overtime. She rests at home and goes downstairs to buy some food. She is unlucky and falls down the stairs.

My head hurts, I must have fallen down the stairs and hit my head, but don't break my brain, I can still think of this now, it seems that this possibility is very low, it seems that my nerves are really big, and I am drowsy Yi climbed up again, really sleepy, so Xing Yue simply continued to sleep.

In her sleep, Xing Yue had a very real dream. This dream was very long, as if it had been more than ten years. She dreamed of Mrs. Xing in the Dream of the Red Chamber, as if she had read her whole life, watching her from the joy of marrying into the Jia family. , the expectations of her husband, the love of the newlyweds, the lust of her husband, the run-on by her aunt, the birth of a concubine and a concubine, the discussions behind the slaves, the sarcasm of the second wife, and the old lady's indifference made this outstanding woman become bitter and mean. , In this big house, no one can be relied on, only gold and silver are the future support.

Xing Yue is a house girl, and the house girl's biggest hobby is reading novels. Recently, Dream of the Red Chamber is very popular, so she naturally reads a lot. For Mrs. Xing, every article has a different description, either praise or derogation, poor It's a pity that he is a very complicated character, and even a poor person, who has never lived a comfortable life.

Because of the same surname, Xing Yue specifically checked Mrs. Xing's information on the Internet. This person is completely a tragic figure. He came from a small family, but married into a wealthy family. , and always want to be top-notch and gain power, but the result is not pleasing. It is annoying everywhere, making others uncomfortable, and making yourself uncomfortable. The typical harm to others is not beneficial to yourself. When Xing Yue saw these materials, he felt that Xing Yue The behavior of the lady is very ridiculous.

Mrs. Xing in the dream, everything she experienced made Xing Yue see the reason for her actions. It all came from her love for her husband, that drunkard Jia She, but she didn't get any response. The cynicism of the surrounding environment made her She became vitriolic and greedy for money.

Waking up again, the pain on his forehead was not so clear, Xing Yue closed his eyes, touched his head, and smiled lightly.What time is it now? Why is the hospital so quiet? I remember it was very noisy before. Could it be that it was night? Xing Yue opened her eyes, and she sighed in her heart when she saw the light gauze net. , turned her head and looked around, everything she saw next, the antique furniture, the rare decorations of modern equipment, made her think she was still in a dream, she closed her eyes, shook her head, and opened it again. The dream was really real, I pinched myself, I thought it was very funny, pinching myself in the dream still felt pain, pain, wait, what's going on, Xing Yue's eyes widened, and finally realized something was wrong.

She must be dreaming, she has to continue to sleep, and when she wakes up completely, she will return to the real world.
