[Red Chamber] Jia Huan's Army
Chapter 77
Just when the Jia family was worried and worried that the future was uncertain, Mo Lian's decree made them completely relieved.
"There is nothing greater than filial piety in the world. Today, I am serving the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager day and night. I can't fulfill my filial piety because I see that all the concubines in the harem have been in the palace for many years. Because I bowed and imprisoned him, causing him to lose the happiness of his family relationship, it is also a major event that hurts the peace of heaven. Therefore, under the orders of the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager, on the [-]th of every month, his family members in the pepper house are allowed to visit the palace. And all In addition to the kindness of entering the palace on the second or sixth occasion, for the noble relatives of Jiaofang, whoever has a home in Chongyu other courtyard may wish to invite Luan Yu from the inner court to enter his private residence, so as to make the mother and daughter feel comfortable, and to make a little love for the flesh and blood."
With this decree, all the veteran families are all rejoicing and grateful.Their first thought was not that they could take their daughter back to enjoy the family happiness, but that the Holy One did not mean to anger these old families, and the Supreme Emperor did not give up on them.Now that they have received such a signal, these old nobles are no longer restrained as they were some time ago. Instead, they began to build new gardens with great fanfare, and tried their best to make their daughter's relatives' homes luxurious and rich to show off their financial resources.For a time, there was a lot of construction work in various parts of Sijiu City, which can be called a spectacle.
Now, the father of Zhou Guiren in the east of the city has already started to build a family home, and Wu Guifei's father is looking for craftsmen to survey places outside the city, determined not to lose his daughter's title of noble concubine.Under this atmosphere, Jia's mansion was naturally busy.
"You are generous." Jia Huan sat down next to Mo Lian unhappily, and taunted, "I gave you such a big favor all at once." In fact, these are just excuses, and what upset Jia Huan the most was that he finally calmed down. It is estimated that the Jia Mansion will be on the move for a while.Moreover, Yuanchun Shengqin, whom he thought was because he no longer had one, turned out to be waiting for this meeting at all.
Of course, Mo Lian knew why Jia Huan was unhappy, so he patted Jia Huan on the shoulder reassuringly, and said, "Being a king deserves both kindness and power, especially because of the case of Prince Teng. , It’s a disaster for the country and the people. If you don’t want to see them, just stay with me for a few more days.”
Jia Huan frowned and muttered, "It's as if I'm making trouble for no reason."
Mo Lian looked at Jia Huan's frowning expression, shook his head and smiled, "I really haven't grown up yet. I've already agreed to be Concubine Xiande's soulmate, on the day your sister got married."
After Jia Huan heard this, he was angry at first, then looked at Mo Lian's expression, thought about it carefully, and asked, "Isn't that less than two months? How could there be time?"
Mo Lian nodded and said, "It's really too late."
Looking at Mo Lian's serious expression, Jia Huan blinked suspiciously, then smiled knowingly, and said, "You really are..."
Mo Lian looked at Jia Huan, and asked, "Are you satisfied now?"
Jia Huan nodded with satisfaction: "That's natural. Since it's colliding with our family's marriage, then I want to see how they can still be arrogant and show off."
"Still so childish." Mo Lian tapped Jia Huan with his hand, and then said, "The construction of the Provincial House alone is enough for them to have a headache for a long time. You can watch the show on the sidelines."
Indeed, when he learned of the time when his concubine Xiande went home to visit relatives, the whole Jia's mansion fell into a panic.
"If you want me to talk about such a thankless thing, why do you just take it?" Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lian with hatred, and said angrily.
"Isn't that what your good aunt did?" Jia Lian said, pacing irritably, "Before I thought it was a bit oily, how could I know that these days are just a reminder."
Wang Xifeng leaned on the couch, and said with a sneer: "I told you to stay away from my good aunt. It's not like you don't know the situation in the mansion, so why don't you need money? You can't make ends meet every day, and you've already started living on your laurels. I was the housekeeper that day. At that time, I wished to put my dowry upside down, so I looked better, but now it seems that I am too stupid. Seeing that the inner bag is about to come up, this kind of thing can be hidden as far as possible, and you still I foolishly moved up, I really don't know what to say about you?"
Jia Lian's relationship with Sister Feng has become closer these days, and she is not annoyed when she hears it. Instead, she leans forward with a smile, puts her arms around Sister Feng's slender waist, and asks, "My good grandma, what can you do?"
Wang Xifeng frowned and said with a smile, "Are you really begging me?"
Jia Lian smiled obsequiously, and said, "Isn't it true?"
"That's true," Wang Xifeng said with a smile, waving her fingers, "If you want me to tell you, you might as well go back to the old lady and say that the nobleman's visitation is naturally to do everything possible to make the nobleman happy, and we are also happy. It's just that Now that time is tight, it is not beautiful if there is a large-scale construction project that is not completed after the deadline. Why don't you spend some time in the mansion, or add some buildings that don't take so much time. If the drawings are exquisite and the workmanship is fine, it may not be another In this way, things will be done, the nobleman will be happy, and he will gain a good reputation for being thrifty and simple."
After speaking, Sister Feng paused, and then continued: "Besides, the cost is much less than building a new garden. Your oil and water problem has also been solved, hasn't it?"
Jia Lian half-believingly said: "Others are easy to talk about. But didn't you say that the mansion is already beyond its means? Where did you get the money to build the garden?"
Hearing this, Wang Xifeng pointed at Jia Lian angrily with her onion-like finger, and said with a sneer, "So if you are like this, you should stay away from my good aunt as soon as possible."
"I'm just a fool. Didn't I just marry Zhuge, a girl like you? Good grandma, can you give me some pointers?" Jia Lian looked at Wang Xifeng's rosy face, even if she sneered, she was glamorous , how could she control her cynicism, she hugged the other party tightly shamelessly, and became more and more obsessed.
Wang Xifeng couldn't help it because of his disturbance, and said: "What are you doing? It's broad daylight, and it's becoming more and more unruly."
Jia Lian blinked suggestively, and said with a smile, "If it's at night, can I behave like this?"
Wang Xifeng pushed him, blushed for a while, and felt helpless: "Forget it, let's talk about serious business. This money will definitely not come out of the second room's small treasury. At that time, I'm afraid I will find someone to take advantage of. The mansion plus the Xue family. Just wait and see, I will find you when the time comes."
As he said that, Wang Xifeng turned cold and said, "Don't get involved in this matter in a daze. Once you borrow this money, you won't be able to pay it back."
Jia Lian smacked his lips in displeasure, and said, "My relatives are all like this, so it's not proper to do this."
Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lian's appearance, and spat angrily: "Otherwise, there can be a Baoning uncle's mansion? I can see through it. There are many unscrupulous things in this mansion. It's not like you and I haven't done it. But if everything is done absolutely, there will always be no good end.”
Here the young couple are talking privately, while there are also people who are worried.
"After these few days, our old sisters have the opportunity to sit down and have a good talk." Mrs. Wang held Aunt Xue's hand, her face full of sorrow, "Why did this happen so suddenly?"
When Aunt Xue heard this, her eyes were red and swollen from crying because of her natal family these days, and she was about to shed tears. Ask your sister for advice. Now the mansion has been confiscated, and the family members really have no place to go. I took them to our house. But you know, sister, our place is too small and it is very inconvenient. I don’t know how Can't you stay here for a while, sister?"
Aunt Xue is soft-hearted, but Mrs. Wang has a bad face after hearing this.Today, she wanted to borrow money from Aunt Xue to repair the provincial hospital, but before she could say anything, Aunt Xue preempted her, so it was hard for her to speak again.
"You also know that our mansion is preparing for the return of the mother to visit relatives. It's a chaotic scene. These female relatives are already frightened. It will be bad if they collide with us again."
Aunt Xue wiped her tears with a handkerchief, thought for a while, nodded and said: "Yes, I can only let them stay with me for a while longer. It would be great if I could find the house as soon as possible."
Mrs. Wang said: "I can ask Lian'er to help me inquire about this. Now he is doing an errand in the provincial hospital, so he happens to be in touch with these things."
"It couldn't be better." Aunt Xue said happily after hearing Mrs. Wang say so.
Seeing Aunt Xue's emotional number, Mrs. Wang secretly felt that this was a good opportunity to make her own request, so she sighed and said, "When it comes to my mother's family visit, I have to speak up boldly."
"If my sister has any difficulties, just let me know, as long as my sister can help, I will definitely help."
"You also know that our mansion has been in a bad situation for so many years, and we have been eating our laurels for the past few years. And this time, the provincial hospital needs to spend a lot of money, and it may not be able to turn around for a while. I don't know if you have any spare money, sister. , borrow it to turn around."
Aunt Xue looked at Mrs. Wang's appearance, she didn't know that she was asking herself to spend money to help their Jia family build another courtyard.It's just a sisterhood, so it's not easy to refuse.
"Sister, you also know that we are orphans and widowed mothers. In addition to the incident caused by Pan'er a few days ago, life is not easy. But since my sister mentioned it, I will lend all the 3000 taels that I can decide on hand to you. For the rest, I have to go back and ask Pan'er. After all, the turnover of business also needs money."
Mrs. Wang was upset when she saw that only 3000 taels had been borrowed.But it's not easy to show it, so I can only say with a stiff face: "I can understand. Please help me with this matter. After all, if we Baoyu have this blessing in the future, it will be a family that is more intimate. Jia's family Isn't the scenery pretty on everyone's face?"
Aunt Xue had known for a long time that Mrs. Wang had the idea of marrying her family, especially after Lin Daiyu moved out of Jia's house, this intention became more obvious.It's just that my girl knows that Bao girl has a big heart. If she is really allowed to look at it, she must not look down on Baoyu, especially with the current Baoningbo in comparison.It's just that a mother does nothing else, and always hopes that her daughter's life will go well. This Baoyu knows the bottom line, although she has not yet enlightened, but her nature is not bad, and her mother-in-law is her own aunt, life will never be so bad.
When Aunt Xue thought of this, she also paid attention to Mrs. Wang's words.Mrs. Wang saw Aunt Xue's complexion was a little loose, so she chatted about other topics in satisfaction.
"There is nothing greater than filial piety in the world. Today, I am serving the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager day and night. I can't fulfill my filial piety because I see that all the concubines in the harem have been in the palace for many years. Because I bowed and imprisoned him, causing him to lose the happiness of his family relationship, it is also a major event that hurts the peace of heaven.
