The Kangping Life of Mrs. Xing in Honglou

When the children woke up, it was already dinner time. Now that the weather was cold, Xing Yue didn't want to let the children go back and forth to the old lady's place, so he sent someone to tell the old lady that she would take the children again tomorrow morning. to say hello.

Xing Yue and Jia She took the four children to dinner. Xing Yue obviously felt the restraint of Lin Daiyu and Lin Xin, so he added more food to the bowls of the four children. When he turned his head and saw that Jia She had finished eating, he planned to put down his chopsticks Xing Yue hurriedly took a mouthful of food and put it into Jia Amnesty's bowl. Jia Amnesty put down the chopsticks for a while, and continued to eat while holding the chopsticks. Keeping the chopsticks in his hand, Xing Yue looked at him so stupidly, Pushing Jia Amnesty under the table with his hand, indicating that the children were not full yet, Jia Amnesty had no choice but to raise his chopsticks and continue eating.

The actions of Xing Yue and Jia She were seen by several children. Yingchun and Jia Cong lowered their heads and smiled secretly. Looking like a child, he cleared his throat and reminded his son and daughter not to be too arrogant. Xing Yue picked up the chopsticks again to pick up food for the children.

After dinner, Xing Yue took out the presents for the two of them. The brother and sister each had a suet jade safety buckle, a newly published book for Daiyu, and a good set of brushes, ink, paper and inkstone for Lin Xin. Only then did the servants take a few children back to the room to rest.

A few months ago, a piece of top-grade mutton fat jade was sent from the north, and the person in charge originally planned to carve it into an ornament and sell it in a shop, but was stopped by Xing Yue to make five pairs of jade pendants with different suitcases. For the rest, [-] safety buttons were made and given to the married children and grandchildren at home to wear.

In addition to those for Lin Xin and Lin Daiyu, ten have been sent out now, one for each of Yingchun, Tanchun, Jia Cong, Jia Huan, Jia Lan, Jia Gui, and the two children of Li Yunxiang's family, and one was also given to Jia Baoyu. One, but Jia Baoyu's special one was made by Xing Yue who found another piece of high-quality red agate.

In the evening, when Xing Yue and Jia She said this, Xing Yue brought Jia She a glass of water and said: "My lord, I don't think the new brother's rules are very familiar, why don't you find someone to teach them, the Lin family is just such a brother now. Son, in the future Daiyu will rely on this concubine brother to support her." Xing Yue would not tell Jia Amnesty that Jia Min was wrong, this child was obviously brought up by free-ranging.

Jia She has seen this kind of thing a lot. In noble families, the concubine's sons are basically raised by the aunt's mother.Unexpectedly, the same is true of his younger sister Jia Min. The Lin family does not have many heirs, so they attach great importance to their heirs, regardless of whether they are descendants or concubines, they are carefully raised.Lin Ruhai's branch has been passed down for five generations, and finally had two children. How can Lin Ruhai ignore this son? Jia She doesn't believe that Lin Ruhai doesn't know what his sister is doing.

"Brother Xin is the only son of my brother-in-law, Madam, please pay more attention. As for the rules, you send someone to teach them well. Let him and Cong Er learn from Mr. Mu first." Jia Shen recalled what happened on the boat. He was even more dissatisfied with his mother. He knew that his mother didn't want to see the concubine of the Lin family, but he didn't expect to be so vicious that he wanted to cut off his brother-in-law. He didn't even think about it. , the brother-in-law who holds an important position can let the Jia family go.

Because Mr. Mu was old, he did not go to Guangdong with Jia Lian's family to take office. After discussing with Jia Lian, Jia Amnesty invited Mr. Mu home to live in Lixiangyuan to be his wife for Brother Cong. At the same time, he also analyzed it for Jia She Take a look at the situation in Beijing, so that it can be sent to Jia Lian who is far away in Guangdong.

"Master, don't worry, I will arrange it. Master, I think the old lady doesn't like the new brother." Xing Yue still reminded Jia She that she already knew what happened on the boat. If the old lady is confused, It is impossible to guard against the new brother in the mansion. If something happens, even if Lin Ruhai does not act, the men in Jia's mansion will not even think about raising their heads outside. Why is there such a troublesome old lady at home?Xing Yue now thinks of the temple begging the Bodhisattva to let the old lady calm down.

"Madam take care of her more." Jia Amnesty hadn't thought of the old lady's intention to get rid of her new brother.

"I think the old lady wants to tell Baoyu about Yu'er." Xing Yue turned around to make the bed, and said casually.

"How is this possible? My brother-in-law is a third-rank inspector of salt and censor. To put it bluntly, Baoyu is nothing but an ordinary commoner. How could my brother-in-law betroth his daughter to him? The old lady is confused, and she can't be confused about this. Let's let it go and talk about it, but don't say it outside, it will damage Yu'er's reputation." Jia She said very differently.

Although Jia She said that the old lady would not be so confused to such an extent, she felt sloppy in her heart, thinking of what the old lady did on the boat, getting rid of the concubine, then the Lin family would only have Yu'er as a girl, and the Lin family's Isn't the millionaire's wealth all Yu'er's dowry? If Daiyu and Baoyu's marriage is facilitated, won't all the Lin family's wealth go into Baoyu's pocket?The more Jia She thought about it, the more it seemed possible.

"Speaking of reputation, my lord, I have to say that Baoyu is eight years old now, and is still hanging out in the inner house, making rouge with the girl around her, eating the rouge from the girl's mouth all day long, not studying hard, and going to school for three days Those who play nets and dry fish for two days have not attended serious school for a few days. If it continues like this, in a few years, not to mention Yuer, even our family welcomes the spring. This reputation will not be that good, sir, I think You should think of a way, let the second brother's family take Baoyu back, and let the second brother discipline him well." Xing Yue took the opportunity to complain, she was also thinking about her daughter.

"Baoyu doesn't go to school. When did this happen? Didn't the old lady specially invite her master to teach Baoyu at home? I heard that Baoyu did a good job in school." Jia Amnesty was stunned.

"Where does the master know that Baoyu has a headache after reading the Four Books and Five Classics, and he is not feeling well today, tomorrow his head hurts, and his stomach hurts. Anyway, he hasn't studied well for a few days. The old lady is afraid that the second brother will know. It’s a good thing that brother Cong was not allowed to study with him at the beginning, if this is the case, wouldn’t it delay our brother Cong? If the master doesn’t believe it, go and see for yourself.” Xing Yue explained to Jia She.

"In this way, keep the children in your family away from Baoyu in the future." Jia Amnesty also murmured in his heart, planning to go and see tomorrow, if it was true as Xing Yue said, he would really have to find a way to get the second child to take Baoyu back to discipline him.

Jia Zheng didn't know at all that Baoyu's current state was very clear in Liu's heart, and he wouldn't ask Jia Zheng for it.After Jia Zheng was dismissed from office, he tried to do things around, imagining that he could be reactivated. Now two years have passed, and there is no movement in the court. Gradually, Jia Zheng stopped looking around and went home to concentrate on reading.Under Liu's good words and persuasion, he taught his younger son Jia Huan homework and chatted with Qing Ke every day, and his life was leisurely.

On the second day, Xing Yue took the brothers and sisters of the Lin family to meet relatives, went to the house of the second child, and the house of the eldest aunt.Jia Amnesty couldn't believe it, so he really went to see what Baoyu was doing on weekdays. Unexpectedly, he saw Baoyu eat the rouge from the maid's mouth, and went to Mr. Baoyu's place again, so he knew everything.

That's okay, he still plans to marry his daughter to a good family, if he ruins his daughter's reputation for such a bastard as Erfang, then it's not worth it.In two months, it will be Chinese New Year, and after the new year, Baoyu will be nine years old, no matter what, next year he has to move out, Jia She secretly decided in his heart.

Not to mention that the Jia mansion caused disturbances due to the arrival of the Lin brothers and sisters, even the entire capital city was in a state of tension. Why, because the prince colluded with the queen's natal family to rebel, not only the natal family was confiscated, but the queen was also implicated and abolished the posthumous position. The prince was also deposed and locked up.All of a sudden, the other princes who were likely to succeed to the throne started to move, attacking each other, and the capital was thrown into chaos. Many families were found guilty and their homes were ransacked.

There have been years in the holy life, and several sons fell ill due to anger. In addition to the winter, the wind blew again. It has been a month since the court was up. Now the whole Kyoto is about to come. The Wang family's face was torn apart, and the Dongfu family kept their filial piety. They were not in Beijing, and the whole family was not implicated. They closed their doors and lived a good life.

The second prince and the fifth prince thought that the Holy Majesty would not last long, and the struggle between the two factions became more intense. The Holy Majesty was ill, and only Prince Rui waited on the bedside day and night, and fell into the eyes of the Holy Majesty.

The Holy Majesty finally survived, seeing the two sons who had caused chaos in the court, he was very displeased, so he cleaned up and cut off many members of the two parties, which made the two of them calm down.It also makes people understand the Holy Majesty's ability to control the entire court.Maybe this illness, the Holy Majesty figured it out, made a decree years ago, passed it on to Prince Rui, and officially enthroned in March next year.

This decree made all parties calm down, with the escort of the Holy Majesty, the other princes dared not speak out, and now the entire government affairs are handed over to Prince Rui.

Now that Prince Rui is in power, Jia She is very happy in his heart. Because of a charity given by Prince Rui, Jia Lian was put on duty in the Ministry of Rites. Afterwards, every year and festival, the Jia family carefully prepared a gift for Jia Lian to send, that is, when Jia Lian left Beijing, They haven't broken up either, after a few years, they can be regarded as having friendship with Prince Rui, Bachelor Yan, the Zhang family also secretly helped Prince Rui a lot in court since Prince Rui helped Jia Lian.

Jia She was very happy in his heart, and under Xing Yue's reminder, he didn't make any publicity, and only drank a few times for his own entertainment. At the end of the year, he visited Prince Rui's mansion, and many people gave congratulatory gifts. Jia She No one in their family is an official, so they didn't join in the fun. According to the etiquette of previous years, they gave them an extra [-]%.

The things for Prince Rui and Princess Rui are nothing special, and there are not many things. Most of the things are for children. There are currently three sons in Prince Rui's mansion. The eldest son was born prematurely. Xing Yue specially ordered people to collect a lot of things Nail them together and put them in the annual ceremony.

This year, due to the fact that the Zen seat was released, no one in Beijing was in the mood to celebrate the New Year. The Jia family was in it, and they didn't celebrate it. Their family had to guard their aunt who passed away.

Years ago, Xing Yue took her two children to a temple and asked them to kowtow to their mother and burn incense to pray for Lin Ruhai, which was considered filial piety.

During the family banquet, Baoyu sat at the table of the women's family members, and Jia Amnesty seized the opportunity and called him out.

Baoyu came outside and saw his father, trembling, like a frightened rabbit, not at all manly, and was teased by Jia She: "Baoyu, you are nine years old now, and you should be with your family. You can get close to your uncle, look, younger brothers are sitting outside, you are a boy, what's the point of sitting with a bunch of girls?"

Jia Zheng also realized that Baoyu was now nine years old. The old lady was worried and ordered Baoyu to be called in. We don't have much contact with each other, and we only meet each other when Baoyu pays his respects in a year.

Jia Amnesty saw that Jia Zheng seemed to have realized it, so he didn't say anything else. He just let people speak out in private, and talked about Jia Baoyu's actions with the old lady. , Men and women have different seats at seven years old, Baoyu is nine years old and still hangs out in the house, etc., all spread to Jia Zheng's ears.

There is no need for Jia Amnesty to offend his mother. When Jia Zheng greeted the old lady, he directly raised it and took Baoyu back. Although the old lady loved Baoyu, Baoyu lived with her all the year round and did not even kiss her father. She has lived to this age , There will always be a day to go, and I can't watch Baoyu forever, so I agreed to let Baoyu go back to live.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Mother Jia packed up Jia Baoyu's things and sent them back to the second room. Seeing Mrs. Shi and Baoyu crying like they would never see each other again, Xing Yue became annoyed.

The old lady was afraid that others would not be used to serving Baoyu, so she sent all the maids, women, and servants who served Baoyu to her. There were more than 40 people in total. .

However, the arrival of these people also gave Liu an excuse to apply eye drops in front of Jia Zheng.
