Daiyu's life

Chapter 54

Daiyu sister and brother laughed very unkindly in the room for two or three days when they found out. Your wife, Mrs. Wang, provoked our siblings and beat your son, which is very fair.As for Jiamu's attitude, it doesn't matter at all. Daiyu sister and brother did not accompany Jiamu day and night, and Jiamu didn't really love Daiyu sister and brother. The reason why Daiyu sister and brother still respect Jiamu is because Jiamu is Jia Min. Mother, Jia's mother still takes care of Daiyu's siblings because they are Jia Min's direct children, and they also have a second-rank father.

After Haoxuan laughed, he said, "The second aunt is too free, so she has time to watch our house."

Daiyu secretly said cheerfully, "This matter is not over yet, let's wait and see." Haoxuan raised his eyebrows curiously, Haoyu surrounded Daiyu and asked what he was going to do, but Daiyu didn't know what to do. Said, in fact, what Daiyu has to do is very simple. In many families where brothers live together, the wives and grandmothers of the family will mostly buy here for a commission, and some simply replace the shop where they buy with their own dowry shop, even if it is not their own. For relatives of her natal family, Daiyu believes that Mrs. Wang is no exception here. She has already asked Su Yang to investigate. When they find out, they can go directly to Madam Xing. If you don't let Mrs. Wang take off a layer of skin, you'll be damned.

While Daiyu was gearing up and waiting to peel off the skin for Mrs. Wang, Baochai's family got some lake shrimps that were bigger than a palm, and they were all alive and kicking. Yuntong went to Lixiangyuan.Baoyu was still recuperating at Jiamu's. Because the lake shrimp was also a hair product, Jiamu didn't let Baoyu eat it, so Baoyu couldn't go with him.

Xichun looked at the lively shrimp and was very curious. After looking at it for a while, she just took ink and drew a picture of fresh shrimp. Baochai wrote a poem without thinking about it. Make the world your home.

If he gets the help of Jiaolong when he is young, he will overturn the river and the sea.

Daiyu looked at it and said with a smile, "I can't do it anymore, I can only be a little girl with Momo." Someone came into the room with snot and tears, and made everyone jump, but Xichun frowned and said, "What's wrong, it's not good to stay in the mansion, how did this end here?"

The girl cried, "Miss, go back and have a look. Today, the grandpa and grandma went out to offer incense together. The carriage overturned, and the grandpa and grandma were all broken. The imperial doctor said that she is dying."

The pen in Xichun's hand fell to the ground, Daiyu held Xichun and said, "Don't panic, I'll go with you to see what's wrong, don't panic."

Chen Siji was talking to Aunt Xue over there, and came over after hearing the movement, seeing that Daiyu and Xichun were getting dressed, Daiyu's pony carriage was always there, and now Chen Siji led the two of them on board I got out of the pony carriage and went straight to Ningguo Mansion. The entire Ningguo Mansion lived in the East Road Courtyard. When I walked to the Middle Road Courtyard, I could hear crying. When I got to the East Road Courtyard, there were already crying and noisy no.

Qin Keqing got up and came over, she lost a lot of weight, she seemed to be in good spirits, and she was quite calm at the moment, commanding the crowd, first sent the imperial doctor away, and then sent a letter to Jia Jing outside the city, not always The meeting son Jia Mu also brought Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang over, and Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng were talking to Jia Rong.

Mother Jia cried, "My son, what's the matter?"

Qin Keqing had someone help Jia's mother to sit down and said, "Two days ago, my mother had a crooked foot at home, and my father-in-law accidentally burned his hand. I was still sick. My mother said that things were not going well at home, and my father-in-law said the same thing. I just wanted to go to the temple to worship and get rid of bad luck, the two of them went out this morning, and it will be like this when I come back."

Jia's mother had stopped her tears now, she stared at Qin Keqing and asked, "Where are the people who followed?"

Qin Keqing said, "Except for the two who fell to their deaths, after the doctor saw the injuries, they were locked in the front yard and waited for the master to come back."

Mother Jia didn't say anything else after a while, but took her son and daughter-in-law to see Jia Zhenyou's family. At this time, Daiyu had already led Xichun to the courtyard of Jia Rong and his wife in front of You's courtyard. Xichun cried and said, "Not long after I was born, we The wife passed away, and the master also went to the Taoist temple, so I let the old lady hug me. A few years ago, my brother didn't take care of me at all. That is, our master treated me well in the past two years, and my brother and sister-in-law loved me. Then one or two points, why are they going now, I feel so uncomfortable."

Daiyu could only hold Xichun in her arms and let her cry. That person doesn't like her father being kind and filial, brothers being harmonious, and sisters being united. The hope that Jane can turn over a new leaf.

Daiyu said, "Cry, it feels good to cry." Xichun cried and passed out, and the whole Ningguo Mansion was in chaos. Daiyu was worried about Xichun, and said hello to Qin Keqing, and asked someone to carry her back to the carriage The front yard of Rongguo Mansion.

Daiyu took Xichun to pat her buttocks and left. Ningguo Mansion was in chaos all night. Jia Jing received the news that he did not practice alchemy anymore, so he rushed back immediately. Qin Keqing cleaned up Jia Zhenyou's body in the backyard , didn't care about the affairs of the outer court at all, the nanny sent by the royal family followed Qin Keqing in an upright manner, and it was said to the outside world that Qin Jingye was worried about his daughter, so he hired the nanny to help her take care of her body.

Jia Jing didn't know the nasty things that happened in Ningguo Mansion in the past few months, but Jia Rong knew it. He didn't have the guts to resist Lao Tzu, so he could only wear the green hat as if he recognized it. Jia Rong looked at Qin Keqing with some fear and whispered "What's going on here?" he asked.

Qin Keqing licked her hair and said, "Grandpa and grandma overturned the car when they went out by themselves, don't you know all about it?"

I don't know if Jia Rong is afraid, or if she really has the love of husband and wife for Qin Keqing, she said in a low voice anxiously, "If you really did it, please tell me quickly, the master is investigating in the outer court. Is there any omission?" I can make up for one or two of the places."

Qin Keqing shook her head very calmly and said, "I really don't know." Jia Rong breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It's good that it has nothing to do with us. If you settle the matter in the backyard, you can just stay here and don't go out to know if you have nothing to do. what?"

Qin Keqing nodded, and Jia Rong left in a hurry. Qin Keqing looked at Jia Rong's back with such joy for a while, and full of sadness for a while, the nanny persuaded, "Grandma, let's take a break , now you are the only person in charge in this mansion, and you will still be busy tomorrow, this body is your own, take advantage of these three years to recuperate, and then give birth to a brother, so that you can teach me, what is this? It's all there."

Qin Keqing said, "I never thought that I would still have the life I have today."

The nanny wiped Qin Keqing's tears, and said, "I didn't expect this. Grandma's good days are yet to come. Grandma will be happy in every way in the future."

Qin Keqing felt a little relieved when she heard that, Jia Zhen went, Qin Keqing let go of the big stone in her heart, and fell asleep.

Jia Jing checked outside all night, only to be sure that Jia Zhenyou's family was really unlucky, the horse pulling the cart stepped on something and suddenly went berserk, the servants around him couldn't hold it back, dragged one to death, and fell to death with the other , one was seriously injured, and the rest were more or less slightly injured. Jia Zhen broke her neck directly, and there was no need to see a doctor at all. You Shi died only after she came back.

No matter how I checked, the result was the same. Jia Jing stopped checking the next morning and sent someone to report the funeral. The people who had good friends in Beijing got some information yesterday, but it was not accurate. The Ningguo Mansion has already reported the funeral. Every family also came to express their condolences.

The whole Ningguo Mansion got busy, and Qin Keqing specially invited Mrs. Xing to come over to help sit in town. Qin Keqing said, "I really can't help it. There are a lot of things at home. Most of the elders who come to express condolences are high-ranking wives. I am white." , I have to take care of the house and receive them at the same time, I'm really afraid of being neglected, so my wife will take care of me and help me take care of it for a few days."

Mrs. Xing wanted to agree immediately, but there was Jia Mu on top, Jia Zhen was the grandson of Jia Mu, and Jia's mother had been able to do it since the first day, but this time she was sitting with her eyes closed, not saying a word.

Qin Keqing went on to say, "I know there are many things here..." Before Qin Keqing finished speaking, someone reported that Jia Jing had come, and Jia Jing was also begging for this matter, and it was Mrs. Xing who came to sit in the town. Madam's meticulously groomed nails were directly broken in her hands.

Jia Jing said that it was impossible for Jia's mother to disagree, Madam Xing quickly agreed, and went to Ningguo Mansion every day to help entertain the wives of various families.

None of this had much to do with Daiyu and the others. The only thing Daiyu had to do was to prepare a normal condolence gift for Su Yang to send over.

Xichun's clothes are very clean, Jia Zhen is her elder brother, Jia Jing can't wear full filial piety when she is still in Xichun, but she still has to wear half filial piety, Daiyu brought a bowl of corn lily and red dates soup to Xichun's mouth, Advised: "Eat something, brother Zhen has gone, your master is sad enough, if you have a good or bad time, how do you let your master live."

Xichun wiped away her tears and said, "Sister, I'm fine, I just feel uncomfortable."

Daiyu put her arms around someone and said, "Silly girl, you still say you're fine when you feel uncomfortable."

Xichun cried for a long time and said, "Sister, I'll be fine if I cry for a while, you go and see brother Xuan, he's going to take a test in the hospital soon, and my sister doesn't have time to enlighten him."

Daiyu smiled and said, "Others don't know, don't you know? It's fine if the kid doesn't enlighten me, and there is still a need for me to enlighten him. There is still Madam Gu watching over the meals, it's okay."

Xichun lowered his head and wiped away his tears, and let Daiyu feed him half a bowl of porridge. Yingchun Tanchun Baochai Xiangyun came to see Xichun coming. It's a great irony that Tanchun is the only one who has both parents and has not gone through life and death.

This kind of thing is not easy to persuade, so everyone had to sit with Xichun for a while, and then dispersed. Baochai finally stuffed Daiyu with two small bottles of sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance, and said, "I know my sister doesn't lack this here." , It’s just that this thing is new and tastes better, my sister should try to persuade the fourth younger sister so that she doesn’t get too sad.”

Daiyu nodded in agreement.When she went back, Xichun had already fallen asleep, she cried for so long today, everyone came and spent a while, and she slept well, so Daiyu felt relieved and went to see Haoxuanhao Yu.

Although Haoxuan is about to take the exam, Haoxuan is not in a hurry, he just studies for half an hour more than before every day. In this age that pays attention to head-hanging beams, awls and buttocks, he is considered not doing business, and Daiyu is happy to see this Yes, the imperial examinations will still be available in the future. They are all growing up, and if they lack sleep, they will never make up for it.

Haoxuan Haoyu doesn't have much contact with these cousins, it would be a lie to say that they really have any feelings, but Xichun's situation reminded Daiyu and his brother of when Jia Min passed away, and they treated Xichun a little more care.

Haoyu asked, "How is the fourth sister?" Daiyu said, "I cried for a while, and I just fell asleep now."

Hao Xuan said, "It's good to be able to come out now, it's easy to sit down to the root of the disease if you hold it in your heart."

Daiyu nodded and said, "I never persuade her to stop crying, just watch her eat more, don't let her body get bad because of it."

The funeral of Jia Zhenyou's family was quite decent, with Jia Jing leading Jia Rong on the outside, and Mrs. Xing Qin Keqing on the inside, the Ningguo Mansion will only have a mistress like Qin Keqing for many years to come, and the servants will naturally fight for it. To flatter each other, except that Mrs. You made a fuss with the second sister You and the third sister, there is no omission. People who read it have nothing to say. I have to say that Qin Keqing is indeed a harmonious person. Waiting for Xichun to not be so sad Now, Qin Keqing sent someone to take Xichun to Ningguo Mansion, and she was either by her side or Mrs. Xing's side every day. Maybe she was busy with something, but Xichun's complexion improved by two points. At this time, I swallowed the many questions, and couldn't say anything.

Jia Zhenyou's family did not stop at Tiekan Temple, Jia Jing and Jia Rong directly took the spirit back to Jinling. The way Jia Zhenyou's death should not be entered into the ancestral grave, but Ningguo Mansion is the eldest son of the family , if only Jia Rong himself might not be able to control the scene, Jia Jing came back, not to mention, and added a thousand acres of sacrifice land to the clan in one go, and the Jia family members said nothing.

After sending away Jia Jing and Jia Rong, Qin Keqing started to do internal affairs, saying that it was to pray for Jia Zhenyou's family, and that some people would be released from the mansion. Jia Jing had already said that he would return to the Taoist temple after Jia Rong's order to seize the title. Even if Xichun returned to Ningguo Mansion, there would be no need for so many people in the whole mansion. Some cried and shouted not to go out, and some honestly packed up their things and left, but most of these people disappeared after they went out. Nobody cares.

After Jia Zhen died, Xichun also had to keep his filial piety. Qin Keqing cleaned up the housework and cleaned out the three courtyards behind You's Courtyard. The third room is Xichun's boudoir. The whole courtyard is much tidier than Qin Keqing and Jia Rong's two small courtyards. Before Jia Jing and Jia Rong came back, they came to take Xichun back to Ningguo Mansion.

Jia's mother said nothing about this, and Tanchun said, "The four younger sisters have gone back, and it is inevitable that I will feel deserted every day. Brother Rong's daughter-in-law might as well let the fourth younger sister live here."

Qin Keqing glanced at the furnishings in the room and said, "My father-in-law is the eldest son of the eldest son, and my aunt is an unmarried first-line sister. At least one year of filial piety is required. The old lady is getting old, so it is inevitable that it is not appropriate to keep filial piety here. "

Qin Keqing's charming symbol is always more attractive than Xichun's unopened Xichun. This time, Qin Keqing is dressed in white, which adds a bit of beauty.

Jia's mother didn't say anything from the beginning to the end, but when Xichun left, she took Xichun's hand and said, "Good boy, the old ancestor has always left the house for you, and you can come back whenever you want." Xichun's eyes were slightly red Yes.

Qin Keqing said to Daiyu, "If Aunt Lin doesn't feel shy, she will often come to sit with us. This aunt just went back there, and she is inevitably not used to it. Please ask Aunt Lin to help persuade her."

Daiyu nodded, watching Qin Keqing lead Xichun away, and the woman from the Ningguo Mansion loaded all Xichun's belongings into the carriage, and everyone knew that Xichun would not come back again.

Daiyu always felt that the atmosphere between Qin Keqing and Jia's mother was very strange, so she went to see Xichun with a few people the next day, and Daiyu knew that something must have happened between Ningguo Mansion and Rongguo Mansion, Qin Keqing arranged for Xichun Four big maids, four second-class maids, eight young maids, two tutors, and someone else to do the housekeeping and gardening in the yard. It can be said that Xichun's mother is still there and that's the only way.

Looking at everything in the Zanlan Courtyard, the atmosphere among the people was somewhat awkward, Xichun smiled and said, "I haven't packed the things I brought back yesterday, and there is always some chaos in the back. Brother Rong and his daughter-in-law are all in the front." OK, let's go."

Baoyu laughed and said, "Brother Rong's daughter-in-law is the most elegant. I want to take a good look at the yard of my fourth sister."

Arriving at the first entrance to the Zanlan Courtyard, Daiyu could only lament how this Jia Mu was, Qin Keqing. In Ningguo Mansion, there is only one girl who is an elder, and that's normal, but the place where guests play is full of huanghuali. Compared with Xichun's aggrieved room before, Daiyu is too embarrassed to say that Jia Mu didn't I'll ill Xichun.

There are no stupid people in this room that Daiyu can think of, and most of them can think of some, but it is impossible to leave immediately when they come here, and they all sit down and have lunch before leaving. Daiyu and Xichun have a good relationship, so they stay .

Daiyu lay on Xichun's red sandalwood and lotus-pattern rocking bed, and said, "Don't think too much, it has nothing to do with you no matter where you are, there is really something wrong, your master is not a vegetarian."

Xichun felt a little panicked, lay down next to Daiyu, and said, "I don't know what happened to Brother Rong's daughter-in-law, but she found out our wife's dowry and put it in my room."

Daiyu casually pulled the drawer of the small cabinet on the bed and asked, "This room is all your wife's dowry."

Xichun looked at it and said, "Some are some, some are not. Brother Rong's daughter-in-law said that they are all made of the same wood and look comfortable. She opened a warehouse at home and specially made them for me."

Daiyu said, "What's wrong with them, the sky is falling and there is a tall man standing on top of it, Brother Rong's daughter-in-law will treat you well no matter what, since you're back here, you can live a good life, there are so few people, and there are no disputes at home." At least, just the two of you, as long as you don't go into trouble, you can live a smooth life no matter what."

Xichun said, "That's right. I'm a decent girl here, and no one dares to neglect me. Brother Rong's daughter-in-law even said that she would let me help her housekeeper after a few days."

Daiyu said, "You are keeping filial piety now, and there are few things to do. You can help Brother Rong's daughter-in-law if you can. She was still sick a while ago, so let her take advantage of these two good years to recuperate. If you make a mistake, it’s all about your own family affairs, it’s no big deal, once you get familiar with the family affairs, you’ll have to get started with the outside affairs, too.”

Xichun whispered, "Sister, don't worry, I will live a good life."

Daiyu smiled with some relief, Xichun is no different from her own sister, since she worshiped her master from Haoxuanhaoyu, Xichun spent longer with Daiyu than their brothers, seeing how Xichun can live her life Well, how could Daiyu be unhappy.

Xichun sighed and said, "It's not good at all when I go back to this mansion, I can't see my sister often."

Daiyu patted Xichun's head and whispered, "I can't live in that mansion forever, I have to move out. I can feel more at ease when you come back here."

Xichun said with bright eyes, "Sister, this is true."

Daiyu couldn't help showing a smile and said, "It should be almost there."

Xichun couldn't help saying, "Amitabha, this day is coming to an end."

Life in Ningguo Mansion is still pretty good. After Jia Jing and Jia Rong came back from Jinling, the decree of attacking the noble came. Jia Rong was demoted again and became a regular fifth-rank guerrilla general. The Ningguo Mansion was given to Jia Jing's lineage. The Rongning Second Mansion was built by imperial edict. After losing the title, it is reasonable to say that the royal family will take it back. You bought this house, it depends on your relationship with the royal family,

You have a bad relationship with the royal family and no one said anything about taking back the house, but with this decree, as long as the Ningguo Mansion does not have all the property confiscated or the descendants sell the house, the Ningguo Mansion will always belong to Jia. Respect to this branch, Qin Keqing is more obedient and aware of the imperial decree, and the Ningguo Mansion becomes the General's Mansion, and the contrast becomes more and more obvious.

The life in the general's mansion over there is simple, and the life of Xichun is also easy. Qin Keqing has been asked to invite two serious female gentlemen to come back to teach Xichun, not only the female gentlemen who learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also the kind of human beings. A gentleman who has to be taught the rules and etiquette, no one can say anything bad about Qin Keqing to Xichun.

It's just that Daiyu and Xichun don't see each other often, but their relationship hasn't changed. They always think about each other when they eat and drink. Haoyu is jealous and says, "My sister doesn't even love me anymore."

Daiyu pinched his little face and said with a smile, "Yesterday I was treated the same as Haoxuan, now I'm here to act like a spoiled elder sister again."

Haoyu pouted and said, "Whoever asks my brother to go out will not take me."

Daiyu said with a smile, "Your brother has been selected as a scholar and went out to meet those who are older than you. You don't like those people, so it's no fun to go with them, isn't it?"

Haoyu didn't answer, just looked at the parrot in the porch in a daze, his small face was full of worry, Haoyu was held in the palm of his family since he was born, Daiyu couldn't bear to see such a small appearance.

He pulled the man over and said, "Some game has been sent from Zhuangzi. Tomorrow, you and Lang Geer will go to Mr. An's house together, and send some of the venison, yellow mutton, robe meat, etc. to Mr. An's house." , Mr. An and Aunt An are all released, only Brother An is left alone in Beijing and I don’t know how to prepare for this year, you go to see if there is anything missing, come back and tell my sister, I will send someone to send it to Brother An. "

Only then did Hao Yu smile, and said happily, "Sister, what do you think is interesting in studying? Brother Lian."

Daiyu knew Haoyu's resentment, nodded his little head and said, "You're talking nonsense again, brother Lian, how much trouble did you take to get promoted, how much famine did uncle cause for some money, Whether Brother Lian can be promoted to the third rank in this life is difficult, if Mr. An has Brother Lian, he will definitely surpass Brother Lian within ten years."

Haoyu knew that what Daiyu said was the truth, so he could only whisper to himself, "Brother Lian and Sister Feng teamed up to cheat money in the mansion. Cousin Zhang even said that Brother Lian's position is very good. , Just wait for the new year to take office."

Daiyu smiled, and Jia Lian and his wife also thought about it. This time, the Zhang family worked for Jia Lian. There were two positions to choose from. From the fourth grade magistrate, the place is a bit out of the way, but it is close to Guangzhou, and cousin Zhang can take care of it. Jia Lian and his wife chose the magistrate without hesitation, and they never thought of going back to Beijing to take back the property belonging to the big house. In Rongguo Mansion, Jia She doesn't know if he really doesn't know about Jia Lian's connection with the Zhang family, or if he doesn't know, he doesn't care about anything, he just jumps up and down in the mansion to get money for Jia Lian and his wife. What's wrong is that it's too patriarchal. When Mao Ge'er was born, Jia She kept talking about it all the time. The eldest sister Jia She, who was born to Wang Xifeng, couldn't say a word for a year. Fortunately, Jia Lian and his wife didn't care about it.

Daiyu's sister and brother were talking about whether Jiamu could do what Jia Amnesty wished, and took out the silver to Jia Lian to get up and down, and Jiamu had already given the silver to Jia Amnesty.Mrs. Jia Zhengxing and Mrs. Wang were there when Jia's mother was with Yinzi. As soon as the 7 taels of banknotes were taken out, Mrs. Jia Shexing was very happy.

Jia's mother said, "Let Lian'er and Feng girl do business outside, and don't make those moths. Our family can still afford them."

As long as Jiamu brings out the silver, Jia Amnesty is so easy to talk, and Jiamu agrees to everything. Jiamu thinks about it and rewards Jia Lian and his wife with a few things. Jiamu talks for a while, and everyone disperses .

Mrs. Xing said to Jia She excitedly, "Master, why is this old lady so easy to talk this time, this plus the allowance for next year is 10 taels, the old lady is actually willing to take it out."

Jia She stroked his mustache and smiled, "You don't care what she is, it's good if the old lady can take out the money, and whoever cares about the others, have you packed up the things for Brother Mao? Send someone to deliver everything."

Mrs. Xing hurriedly said, "It's all packed, and I'm just waiting for the family's money. I'll have someone send it away in a while, so that the second child's family won't have any trouble."

Jia She said with a smile, "very"

Mrs. Wang didn't have time to do anything wrong. When she returned to the East Courtyard, Mrs. Wang couldn't control her livid face. She couldn't help complaining to Jia Zheng, "The old lady is too partial, Lian'er Feng girl has been away for many years, and every year she sends home any kind of earthenware, not a penny. In addition to the money sent to them by the family every year, the elder brother also subsidizes it in different ways. This time, the good old lady directly opened a private house As a subsidy, 7 taels of silver will be taken out like this."

Jia Zhengsheng insisted, "That is the old lady's private room. The old lady can give it to whoever she wants. There is room for you to intervene. If you have this time, you might as well watch Baoyu read more. Haoxuan is so much younger than him." , now he is a scholar, and he hasn't read all the Four Books yet." After finishing speaking, he flicked his sleeves and went to the outer study without giving Mrs. Wang a chance to continue talking.

Mrs. Wang was so out of breath that she passed out. After Jin Chuan rubbed her life for a long time, Mrs. Wang finally recovered. Trouble with Mrs. Jia Shexing.

Mrs. Wang slowed down, and said to Jin Chuan, "Find out two bright-coloured Nanyang fabrics that I kept."

Jin Chuan found it in response, and Mrs. Wang went to Lixiangyuan with her things. Aunt Xue was reconciling the account book with Baochai at home. Aunt Xue was worried. It is getting bigger and bigger. If there is no support from the comprador in the palace, Aunt Xue would not know what to do. Baochai would not be able to discuss business with the shopkeeper in person. This can only live on a budget.

Seeing Mrs. Wang approaching, Aunt Xue's sorrow immediately disappeared, and she smiled happily, "Why is my sister here at this time?"

Mrs. Wang said, "There's nothing wrong at home, so I'll come and sit with my sister."

Aunt Xue took Mrs. Wang to the kang and sat down. Baochai brought tea for Mrs. Wang, and then she was about to leave, leaving room for Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue to talk. Mrs. Wang was more and more satisfied after seeing it.

Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "It's almost Chinese New Year. I saw this material when I was looking through things. I got it back then. The color is bright. Let's make two sets of clothes for Bao girl."

Aunt Xue shook her head and said, "If you have good things to keep for Baoyu, it's not like you don't know about Baoyatou's weird temperament, and you don't like these things the most. Last time I forced her to make two new clothes."

Mrs. Wang said, "Isn't it the same for Baoyu or Baochai? Bao girl is so sensible, and I can't bear the pain."

Aunt Xue smiled even more when she heard this, so she let the girl pick it up.

Even when Mrs. Wang recovered, her face was somewhat sickly. Aunt Xue looked at it carefully and said, "Sister, what's the matter, but I'm not feeling well."

Mrs. Wang's eyes were sore when she heard this, and she told Aunt Xue about Jia's mother opening a private house to send money to Jia Lian and his wife.

Mrs. Wang said, "I've never heard of such a thing in the capital. When I'm an official outside, I don't talk about sending money to my family, but my family also sends out a large amount of money every year. This time I'm going to be promoted. The family sent out that large sum of money, and so did Feng girl, every time she wrote a letter to report her safety, she started to cry poorly, and she even wrote to her brother, as if my aunt and aunt treated them harshly, heaven and earth Conscience, since they left Beijing, the family has never cut off their money even when the family was in trouble. Except for the old lady's, the rest of the family's things are picked up and sent to them. What do you want me to do."

Aunt Xue's heart twitched when she heard that, it was Jia Mu's private house, and to the extent that Jia Mu loved Baoyu, when Jia Mu went to her private house, most of her private houses belonged to Baoyu. How could the aunt not feel distressed, so she said, "This Feng girl is too much, how dare they talk to the family about this kind of thing, they are both mothers of a pair of children, and they are still supported by the family, it is really unbelievable Whatever you say is good, it's all because my sister-in-law spoiled me too much back then."

Wang Ziteng is an official outside, Aunt Xue gets along with Mrs. Wang every day, Baoyu will be her son-in-law in the future, Aunt Xue naturally turns to Mrs. Wang, and now even Mrs. Shi is complaining.Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang deserved to be sisters, they thought the same thing, one complained and the other helped to complain, after a while Mrs Wang's mood improved a lot.

Before leaving, Mrs. Wang said to Aunt Xue, "It will be our master's birthday in two days. Let Pan'er come over earlier and help Baoyu with him."

Aunt Xue couldn't close her mouth when she laughed, she quickly agreed, and Mrs. Wang went back.Mrs. Wang supported Xue Pan so much, of course Aunt Xue couldn't be stingy, and besides the birthday gift she should have, she gave Mrs. Wang a separate share in private.

Unexpectedly, on the day of Jia Zheng's birthday, the Jia family waited for great news. Yuan Chun was named a virtuous and noble person.

Before Jia Zheng went to the palace, Mother Jia and the others had been waiting anxiously. Daiyu and Baochai could only accompany her when she welcomed the spring. It's really a pain, I have to wait for such a long time with a hungry stomach after eating two bites of food.

The forehead of such a seasoned mother as Jia's mother was covered with layers of cold sweat. Wang Sifu vaguely told Daiyu that Jia Zhen's death was abnormal, and asked Daiyu to help hide Xichun. With Rongguo Mansion's attitude and Jia's mother's attitude that the sky is about to fall, Daiyu can only say that it's not good to do too many bad things.

After waiting for a long time, Dale came back and told that the eldest girl in the mansion had made great contributions to serving the emperor. The sage loved her very much, and she was named a virtuous and noble person. They were all very happy. They entered the palace with high-grade make-up to thank you. Even Daiyu chanted a Buddha when she heard the news. Whether Yuanchun was a concubine or a nobleman, it has nothing to do with the Lin family. What makes Daiyu happy is that Lin Ruhai is now The health is still good. The Zhen family's four and five households were fined one million taels of silver and dismissed from official positions, but their lives were kept. It can be regarded as Lin Ruhai's mercy. The Zhen family also said that this matter is over, as for how to retaliate in the future? It's a matter of the future, the most important thing is that Lin Ruhai will return to Beijing safely, and now Yangzhou is in the final stage.

The mother of Jia had already entered the palace, and Daiyu returned to the front yard. Chen Siji shook his head and said, "I have heard of the title of the eldest girl in this mansion for so many years in the palace. She is obviously just a small nobleman, but why is it so strange?" Using the word virtuous, it’s okay if there are fewer people in the saint’s harem now. When the four concubines are full in the future, what will happen to the second concubine Xiande? Concubine, how is the rank of this virtuous and noble person calculated? It is true that the mansion is so happy without knowing these things. I don’t know what to say.”

Wang Sifu stuffed Chen Siji with a bowl of japonica rice, and said, "Eat yours, isn't it enough after being hungry for so long, then the emperor is not in a hurry, we eunuchs are not even in a hurry."

Chen Siji had no faction in the palace for many years and was able to become a fourth-rank female official, and finally left the palace safely with all his wealth, so his curiosity was very small, but this virtuous and noble man was really strange, so he couldn't help but wonder. After saying a few words, after listening to Wang Sifu's words, he didn't ask any more questions. He knew that the seats at Jia's side had been withdrawn early, and Lin's side had already been prepared. It is delicious.

After everyone had left, Wang Sifu said to Daiyu, "Didn't the mansion in Beijing be renovated again a few days ago, what is the girl going to do with those things left at home?"

Daiyu said, "The hundred gardens have been built long ago. The house at home was overhauled two years ago, and this time it was repaired a little bit. It will not be repaired again in a short time. I want to wait for my father to come back. Let the little hot spring Zhuangzi go up and have a look, if it is good, repair the hot spring Zhuangzi, if the scenery is really bad, let Su Yang resell it."

Wang Sifu nodded and smiled, "It's better to wait for the master to come back."

Daiyu knew in her heart that it was Wang Sifu who came to remind her, and Daiyu was very grateful for this. Daiyu hadn't been in Beijing for nothing in the past two years, except for the Zhuangzi who usually delivered fruits and vegetables to the Lin family, Daiyu also According to the natural gardens in the south, a hundred gardens were built. There are few pavilions and pavilions, but mostly flowers and trees. Daiyu hired many veterans from the south to serve the flowers and trees. People who really love flowers cultivate them with all their heart. There are flowers in the garden all the year round.

In addition to the fact that the people of the Lin family can often go there to enjoy the scenery, the biggest use is to sell these flowers. A high-quality peony can be sold for at least 200 taels, but flowers and trees are not often bought by people.
