The Kangping Life of Mrs. Xing in Honglou

"Madam, Zizhu pays respects to Madam." In the middle of the afternoon, Zizhu came back from Rong Mansion, changed clothes and greeted Xing Yue.

Xing Yue opened her eyes and looked at Zizhu, Zizhu's eyes were swollen like walnuts, and her eyes were red, obviously she had cried a lot.

"What's the matter? My eyes are red from crying. If you are worried about that willow leaf, please send someone to ask a good doctor to take a good look at it." Xing Yue said with a frown.

"My servant thanked my wife for Liu Ye, but there is no need, Liu Ye has already gone." After speaking, she bowed her head and wept, feeling sad for her good sister.

"Tell me, what happened, why did it disappear?" Xing Yue straightened up and asked.

"Yesterday, Liu Ye made a mistake and was beaten [-] times. After returning home, she didn't ask a doctor to treat her. This morning, she is no longer able to do so. The maidservant rushed over to see her for the last time." Xing Yue knew that there was something wrong with the beating. Pay attention, maids who make mistakes usually won't kill them, otherwise Xing Yue wouldn't be able to ask someone to beat those maids who made mistakes twenty times today, and this willow leaf was beaten twenty times Not to invite a doctor, it can be seen that it is Mrs. Wang's intention, and it probably has something to do with this Zizhu.

"Why haven't I heard that you have such a little sister before?"

"The madam knows that the servant's family and hometown suffered a disaster, and the family was left with only the servant, begging everywhere with the refugees, and the slave was so fateful that he survived to the foot of the capital. In order to survive and not be hungry, he sold himself as a slave." , This Liu Ye met at Ren Yazi. Liu Ye saw that the servant girl was young and took good care of her, so the relationship was very good. Liu Ye was different from the servant girl. The servant girl was alone, so she signed a death contract. Liuye’s family is in the capital. At the foot was the eldest daughter of the family, but the family was too poor to get rid of the pot, so they sold the eldest daughter because the parents were very reluctant and did not want their daughter to be a slave for the rest of their lives, so they only signed a ten-year contract of living .

Later, Rongguo Mansion bought a girl, and Liu Ye and I were both kept, but by accident, I was picked by my wife to work as an errand in the big house, and Liu Ye was divided because I signed a contract of living. The big kitchen works as a maid, and since they are not working in the same place, the contacts gradually decrease. Only during the New Year's day, they can get together to meet each other and bring something to each other.

Later, the servant girl was promoted to a first-class girl, and she became more and more taboo. She never mentioned her in front of others, and rarely saw her queen. Liu Ye wholeheartedly looked forward to the reunion of the family, and she did things in an orderly manner. I have survived these years, but I don't want to see that the ten years are coming, but something went wrong. I don't know who got the news. I know that Liu Ye and the slaves are good, so I reported it. I have been making things difficult for the past two months. Yesterday The one actually found a wrong place and made a ruthless hand, and now he has gone. "Zi Zhu said while wiping away tears, she was the one who caused Liu Ye to suffer.

"How is the willow leaf now?" It couldn't be that a black-hearted roll was rolled up and thrown into the pile of dead people. This Mrs. Wang is vicious enough, but she just wanted to be nice, and she didn't act against the master. It will cost lives.

"Returning to my wife, Liu Ye's brother came to pick him up at noon today."

"Zizhu, since this willow leaf is kind to you, you can go and give it away tomorrow. This willow leaf is a good one. I didn't let my eyes be dazzled by wealth and honor. I still like it very much. It's a pity that I went there early. Take a few gold and silver nudes in the box, and bring them to her family when you go, so that her family can take care of the funeral, and then go get some gorgeous rulers, make a suit for her, and let her go decently, see If there is any difficulty in her family, please help her." Xing Yue sighed, and secretly scolded Mrs. Wang for losing her head and treating human life as worthless. It is against the law of the country to be able to kill easily.Now that they are afraid of the power of the Rongguo Mansion, this family may swallow their anger. When the wall falls and everyone pushes it back, it will be a crime.

"My servant thanked Mrs. Liu Ye for her kindness."

"Okay, go down and rest."

"Madam, I don't know if I should say something or not." Zi Zhu had already retreated to the door, and suddenly turned around and called Madam, hesitant to speak.

"If you have anything to say, just say it, don't hesitate."

"Madam, when this servant went to ask for leave today, she saw Cui Liu talking to a familiar girl, but when she saw the servant, the girl ran away in a hurry." Although Zizhu was also a person beside Xing Yue, Waiting for a girl, but not as good as Cui Liu who won Xing Yue's eyes. Now that Cui Liu is wrong, I feel a little uneasy, so I speak cautiously.

"Oh, where did that girl serve?" "Just looking familiar, I really can't remember." Zizhu shook her head, but couldn't remember where she met that girl.

"Okay, I understand, don't spread this matter to the outside world." Xing Yue ordered.

Xing Yue closed her eyes, and thought about what happened today. Hong Ling replied that the hole was obviously man-made, and that someone was spying there, but Cui Liu said no, and pointed at Zizhu. Madam's temper must have directly condemned Zizhu, who beat Zizhu well and sold it.Hearing what Zizhu said, it seemed that Cui Liu might also have a problem, this Cui Liu was cruel enough, he just wanted to put Zizhu to death, so that Zizhu could not tell the truth.

Xing Yue couldn't help laughing mockingly in her heart. It seems that Mrs. Xing's memory is not reliable. Mrs. Xing trusts Cui Liu so much and let her take care of the money because Cui Liu is the daughter of Mrs. Xing's accompanying room, Yang Lu's family. Now this Yang Lu He is still in charge of Xing Yue's dowry Zhuangzi.

After Xing Yue arrived, according to Mrs. Xing's memory, she still had good trust in Cui Liu. For the first month, she was asked to continue to take care of the money. After returning home, Xing Yue still asked Cui Liu to serve Yingchun. Now that Xing Yue has been here for more than two months, she has not seen the slightest flaw in Cui Liu.

Today, Xing Yue asked Hong Ling to take Yingchun back and let Cui Liu guard him, because he liked Cui Liu's calmness, but he didn't expect that Sleepy was handing over the pillow, and the news was delivered to the spy's eyes.

When Hongling came back from surveying, Xing Yue suspected that she had fallen in love with Cui Liu. She was not Mrs. Xing, she could look at some things rationally, besides, she had watched a lot of people in the Red Chamber, and she didn't trust the slaves around her very much from the bottom of her heart.I don't know who this Cui Liu belongs to, the old lady's or the second room, it seems that everyone around her has to check it out.

Xing Yue felt that the manpower on hand was untrustworthy, so she asked Jia She to help check the slaves around her at night. At this stage, Xing Yue still believed in Jia She, and could only trust Jia She, after all, Jia She must not I would like my wife to be surrounded by old ladies and spies from the second room.

Xing Yue sees that this woman is different from ordinary servants. To put it bluntly, the servants of Rongguo Mansion are all masters who follow the wind, bully the weak and fear the strong, steal and play tricks, and the servants of the big house are no exception. Hua Pozi is very conscientious, and Xing Yue has a good impression of her.

"Wang Baoshan's family, do you know that woman?" Xing Yue asked when Wang Baoshan's family replied.

"The madam is asking about the lady guarding the corner gate?" Wang Baoshan's family was very surprised, why did the madam ask about the widow today.

"Yes, I look at the situation differently from the gang of slaves in the attached middle school, but I am a neat person. How come I am still a gatekeeper now, tell me." Xing Yue asked.

"Ma'am, this woman is not ordinary, she is not a servant of the mansion, but a hired worker of the mansion. This woman's surname is Liu Qingyi, and she married a scholar named Hua, that's why she is called woman. The mother-in-law is also a family-born child. Her own great-grandfather was the steward of the Duke, her grandmother was the granddaughter of Zhou Li’s family, the companion of the old Fengjun, and the mother-in-law was the maid who served the master when he was a child. This beautiful woman is not a To put it simply, at the age of six, she entered the mansion as an errand, and served in the master's courtyard. Later, with her cleverness, she became the eldest daughter of Mrs. Zhang. A scholar with the surname Hua had two sons after marriage. It’s a pity that this scholar Hua failed to pass the scientific examination twice, but spent a lot of money. Mrs. Hua lived with her two sons. As an orphan and widow, it was inevitable that someone would bully her. Later, she begged the master to work in the mansion. Don't be bullied outside." Wang Baoshan's family said to Xing Yue.

"Why are orphans and widowed mothers bullied? Her natal family is still in charge of Zhuangzi in the mansion. Could it be that her natal family doesn't stand up for her?" Xing Yue asked, frowning.

"My wife doesn't know something. When Mrs. Zhang passed away, Second Master Lian was weak and fell ill every three days. To pray for Second Master Lian, the old lady decided to let a group of people out of the house. Grace, the whole family has been released from the mansion, and the whole family has returned to the south, and the distance is too far, so there is no way to take care of them." Wang Baoshan's family also sighed for this woman.

"Will you release a group of slaves individually, or with your entire family?" Xing Yue told her intuitively that this was very important.

"I have heard it mentioned that the slave is letting the whole family out."

What a coincidence, after Mrs. Zhang died, she released a large number of slaves. It seems that the people released here are probably those who worked for the Zhang family. After all these years, the people of the Zhang family are probably gone. No wonder these In [-], no one mentioned the Zhang family, and Jia Lian didn't know about his mother's family.

"Looking at the age of Mrs. Hua, the two sons must have married wives, why are they still working in the mansion?" Xing Yue asked.

"The two sons of this woman are very promising, and now they are junior officials of the seventh or eighth rank. A few years ago, her two sons also came to see the master, saying that they would take their mother back to enjoy the blessings, but the woman did not I agree, and I will continue to work in the mansion." Wang Baoshan's family couldn't understand the old woman, since her children and grandchildren are all promising, if she still wants to rely on the mansion, as long as she comes to the mansion to pay her respects, that's fine.

"Do you know why this beautiful woman doesn't want to go out of the mansion and go home to be an old lady?" Xing Yue didn't understand very much. You must know that being a woman in the mansion is not as comfortable as being an old lady at home.

"This slave is not clear."

"This woman is so special, why haven't I heard of it?"

"This old woman is a gatekeeper, and only because the master misses the old love, can she work in the mansion. She is also a widow. She is unlucky, so she didn't mention it in front of the wife. If her two sons hadn't come to the mansion a few years ago, I don't even know that there is such a person." This mansion was released from the mansion, and the family status was changed. Among the descendants, there are not only women who are officials, but some of the parents of the other party are also officials.

The eldest girl of Mrs. Zhang next to her must know a lot of the inside story of that year.Xing Yue took this beautiful woman to heart, and waited for the right time to test it out.Xing Yue also thought about whether the Fahua woman was lying. After thinking about it, it was unlikely. According to her family being released, she must be from the Zhang family.

She doesn't believe that the sisters-in-law Zhang and Wang can have a harmonious relationship. People around Zhang's family don't know what Wang looks like. Now that Jia Lian married the niece of Mrs. Wang's second wife, she is another ostentatious Yes, if you can't recognize the situation clearly, this woman may not have no ideas in her heart.Xing Yue vaguely felt that the reason for Jia Lian's reason for staying in the mansion was for Jia Lian, and it might not be because of this son that Jia Amnesty kept the woman in the mansion.

The people who went to Cangzhou came back, and Jia She came over in the evening and brought over Xing Yue's deserved things. With 2 taels of silver, a total of one hundred-pronged Zhuangzi was bought in Cangzhou, as well as two shops located in troubled areas, a restaurant, and a jewelry shop.Jia Amnesty was more generous than Xing Yue. He took a total of 10 taels of silver and bought three hundred-Qing Zhuangzi. Just know.
