The history of violent growth in the Spring of the Red Chamber

When it was time to light the lanterns, Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu finally hurried back from the family temple.Yingchun led a group of maids and women to stand in front of Jiamu's yard waiting for Jiamu and Mrs. Wang. As soon as Jiamu entered the yard, she saw the maids and women neatly lined up in two rows. The yard was also silent. Mother looked at it, felt a little comforted, but said in a deep voice

"Which black-hearted thing without conscience dares to hurt Baoyu."

Mrs. Wang couldn't bear it anymore, and asked in a repeated voice

"Which woman was injured, how could she collide? How is Baoyu now?"

Welcoming the spring is a blessing, and I replied

"It's my wet nurse, Nanny Li. After drinking, she was scolding in the yard. I taught her a few words, and she rushed out. Coincidentally, Baoyu had just woken up from her afternoon nap, so she bumped into Baoyu's wet nurse. Grandma Sun was also knocked over."

"This blind old woman is really hateful."

Mrs. Wang was really angry and hated. When she thought of Baoyu, she hurriedly said:

"Where's Baoyu? How's Baoyu?"

Yingchun said again

"Yingchun took the initiative to send Baoyu and Nanny Sun back to the courtyard, and had people take care of the courtyard, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Nanny Sun said that Baoyu was fine, but Yingchun invited the old lady, and the wife asked the doctor to come over and have a look. .”

Mrs. Wang nodded quickly

"Already invited."

In this way, the old lady, the lady asked questions, and Yingchun answered all the way. After a while, the old lady sat down in the house, and Mrs. Wang and Yingchun helped the old lady wash, change clothes, and sit down.

Yingchun knelt down straight in front of the old lady, and Siqi hurriedly knelt down too.

"This matter is due to my granddaughter's improper arrangement, please punish the old lady."

Jiamu and Mrs. Wang looked at each other, and finally Jiamu asked

"What does it matter to you?"

Yingchun knelt on the ground and replied:

"Yingchun's wet nurse bumped into Baoyu, of course it was Yingchun's fault."

Mrs. Wang didn't speak, but Jia Mu said

"Things are still in order. You don't have to blame yourself for welcoming the girl. When Mrs. Li said something aggressively, people in the yard were watching. Naturally, your wife and I won't feel wronged by you. Let's get up first!"

Jia Mu asked Yuanyang to help Yingchun up, and Yingchun stood up, while Siqi was still kneeling. Jia Mu looked at Siqi with no expression on her face, and just said

"You hoof, why did you fight with Mrs. Li? Could it be that you have accumulated grudges for a long time, and when my wife and I are gone, you also made trouble."

When Siqi returned to the old lady at close range for the first time, he was a little timid in his heart, but when he thought of Yingchun, he dared to answer

"The old lady clearly learned that Siqi is the girl's servant, and she will be the girl's servant for life and death. If there is any intention to make trouble, a thunderbolt will fall from the sky and kill me as soon as I go out."

Seeing Siqi's strong words, Jia's mother exchanged glances with Mrs. Wang.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Hearing Jiamu's voice, Siqi was not angry, so he boldly said:

"Our girl has been copying scriptures for Uncle Zhu these days. She usually writes them at night and sends them to the mounting place in the morning. After binding them into a book at noon, she sends them to Uncle Zhu. It's the same today, at noon. At that time, the scriptures were all framed into a book, and the girl sent me to Uncle Zhu’s room. Just as the servant girl was about to go out, she heard Mammy Li yelling and scolding in the yard. Nanny Li was bestowed by the elders, if there is any discomfort, it is natural that I have neglected it, and told the slaves not to cause trouble, it is important to send the scriptures to Master Zhu, the slaves took the girl's errand, and left the house with the scriptures , who would have thought that, when she saw the slaves, Nanny Li said that the girl didn't crawl out of her own belly, but the girl was raised by her. What old lady, lady, what's like "thunder strikes" of."

"Bastard!"

When Jia's mother heard this, she patted on the table suddenly. Now even Mrs. Wang couldn't sit still, and stood up quickly.

Siqi knew there was a door as soon as he heard it, and he said again

"Nurse Li also said that she even nursed Uncle Zhu."

"shut up!"

Mrs. Wang was furious, and Siqi was startled suddenly, so she shut up and stopped talking.

Now Mrs. Wang was furious. Baoyu was born with a jade in her mouth. Naturally, she was extremely delicate. Then Nanny Li was one of the candidate wet nurses. When Baoyu was born, she hurriedly used money to earn a job as a wet nurse or the woman in the house. After all, it was from the brother's house.Because Nanny Li was focused on earning a job in Baoyu's house, Yingchun was just two years old at the time, and finally got seriously ill. For this reason, Jia Amnesty and Jia's mother were very unhappy. Mrs. Wang took Baoyu to her own room to raise her because she was too old to take care of her. Every time she thought of this, Mrs. Wang would still gnash her teeth, but today, Nanny Li actually preached everywhere, directly poking Mrs. Wang's heart. It made Mrs. Wang furious.

"What happened later?"

In the end, Jiamu was stable, so she let Siqi go on to answer.

"Later, Nanny Li's words became more and more unbearable, and our girl told her not to talk, but Li Nanny seemed to go crazy, and scuffled with me, and her words became more and more unbearable. In the end, the girl couldn't help it. So people tied up the old woman, but Nanny Li went crazy and ran out of the yard. Seeing that Nanny Li was running towards Baoyu's yard, the girl hurriedly asked someone to stop her, don't be surprised. Baoyu or Uncle Zhu. I walked slowly, and when I ran out, I saw Grandma Sun lying on the ground, Baoyu fell into Grandma Sun's arms, and Grandma Li seemed to be mad, not knowing what she was doing."

Jiamu and Mrs. Wang looked at each other, but they couldn't tell whether the words were true or not.However, seeing Siqi's disheveled and distressed appearance, I really believed it a little bit.

What Siqi said was half-truth and half-false, and the truth was mixed with lies. Even if it was an old lady, the situation was similar when asked by the wife. You have to peel off the skin too.

Siqi simply lay down on the ground, kowtowed respectfully, and said in a mournful voice

"Old lady, madam, this matter is all due to the fact that the servants couldn't bear to swallow their anger, so they had an argument with Li Mama, and it has nothing to do with our girl. In order to copy the scriptures for Master Zhu, our girl often sleeps at the third watch and wakes up at the fifth watch. The circles of my eyes are red, even so, I am afraid that my thoughts will be dishonest, and the Buddha will blame me. Old lady, if the lady wants to punish, it is fine to punish the slaves. The girl has been red-eyed these days, and she must not bear the punishment Yes."

Seeing Siqi laying on the ground, Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were in a state of embarrassment, but in the end they even wanted to intercede for Yingchun. She turned out to be a rare loyal servant. After all, he is the master who really protects himself. It can be seen that he is loyal in mind. It is a pity that he was ruined by a stupid man in the end, so he might not want to help the leader.

"You girl, answer well, what are you talking about in front of the old lady, the lady, don't hurry up and shut up."

Mother Jia waved her hand

"In the past, I underestimated this girl. I thought she was clumsy and clumsy, and she was at the end of being a second-class girl. It's hard for her to be so loyal to protect the lord. Welcome girl, your luck will be in the future."

Yingchun lowered her head and saw that although Siqi's voice was sad, there was no sorrow on his face.I thought, "This is a bold girl."

Mother Jia asked about Yingchun and Siqi, and then asked about the girls and women in Yingchun yard. Those girls, at noon, either wandered around, or ate wine and gambled money last night, and the rest of the yard was writing about burning fire. , but the old lady didn't dare to get really close to Nanny Li, the last Nanny Xia replied

"The slaves and servants didn't dare to listen when they heard Nanny Li talking, so they all hid elsewhere."

Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang were furious at each of these servants' replies, especially Baoyu's wet nurse, Grandma Sun, who came to reply.

"Nurse Li sprayed dung all over her mouth, and said to Brother Bao, those maids are all coquettish, who specialize in coquettish brother, old lady, madam, to put it bluntly, those girls are a little too fancy Forget it, we wives only know how to do things faithfully, so we don't know what "fox charm" is, I beg the old lady, the lady decides, otherwise, I really have no face to stay in Brother Bao's room."

Mrs. Wang slapped the coffee table suddenly, and the Buddhist beads in her hand hurt her hand so much that she didn't feel it.

In the end, those maids and women who were watching the excitement in the yard came in to reply, and what they said was similar to Siqi and Nanny Sun. Yingchun bowed her head beside her, guessing in her heart, this Nanny Li is probably dead too!

Mrs. Wang was so angry that her heart ached, but she had to say, thinking that Nanny Li was sent by the old lady.

"Old lady, should I also ask Nanny Li, maybe there is some misunderstanding?"

Mother Jia snorted coldly, she didn't want to ask more questions, but Nanny Li was sent by herself after all, if she didn't reply, it would be hard for her to step down, so she said coldly

"Bring the old woman in."
