Jia Lu through the Red Chamber

Mo Ran concentrates on making women's reds. It's rare that the girl has a rest. The idle girl outside also holds an embroidery frame in her hand, and finds a quiet place to do needlework. Aren't they all making the girl's clothes? It's not their little girl's turn to do it.

They just picked up the pocket money to earn some rouge and gouache for themselves in their free time. Since the girl is planning to open a new embroidery shop, this is not uncommon in the mansion. You can see idle girls doing work everywhere, which is honored Due to the influence of the government, women who like to drink and gamble have also restrained a lot. After all, drinking and gambling is spent outside, where it is more comfortable to take money inside.

Zhang's and other family members were not very optimistic about Jia Lu's new shop. After all, people who live in the capital, the best places, who don't have some eyesight, it's not that they look down on the craftsmanship of their servants.

There are also embroiderers who are as skilled as Zhengjin's embroiderers, and the first and second-class maids around the master are not bad among female reds, but there are more people who have never received this kind of learning, and those who can keep their stitches neat are regarded as the best. Yes, there are many others that are worse than Jia Lu who is not good at female celebrities.

However, it is not bad to have such a good guiding effect on the atmosphere of the family. Even if you lose money, you will lose. In fact, the family atmosphere of the Ning Mansion has improved, but it is not obvious. After all, the Ning Mansion has always been Under Jia Jing's high-handed discipline, whoever dares to commit crimes is really thinking about how to die.

The most obvious change is in the Rongguo Mansion next door, because Jia Lu once said that even the work done by the maids in the Rong Mansion can be sent over for money.The building was about to collapse, some people were addicted to it, and some people felt an inexplicable sense of crisis, and the mood was lifted, otherwise Li Wan and Tanchun wouldn't have had the time to come to Ningfu to take care of the family.

Mo Ran listened to the rustling voices in the room, put down the curtains, tiptoed into the room, and lifted the curtain, so as not to be frightened.

Jia Lu was lying on her back with her eyes wide open looking up!

Mo Ran patted his chest, then said in fear,

"Miss, is it hard to rest?"

Jia Lu blinked her eyes twice, two lines of tears flowed down from dryness and pain, Mo Ran hurriedly said,

"What's the matter, girl? Even if there's something you don't like, just talk to the servants and maids, it's better than just thinking about it here by yourself?"

Jia Lu sat up on the bed, wiped off the moisture on her face, and said, "It's all right, what time is it?" After many days of hard work, the girl's voice, which was supposed to be clear and melodious, was a little hoarse.

Mo Ran brought a cup of warm tea, and while serving Jia Lu to drink it, he took out his pocket watch and said,

"It's 35:[-], I'm afraid it's time for evening meal, the girl didn't make good use of lunch, how about calling for dinner earlier?"

Jia Lu shook her head. She didn't feel how hungry, or she hadn't noticed it for a few days. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, she asked,

"Is the old man's medicine ready for the night?"

"It's all ready, girl, don't worry, Nanny Sun is guarding in the yard over there!"

"Have you ever told the old man to eat some dinner first after the old man wakes up, don't add medicinal food, if you can't smell the medicine, wait for a while before feeding the medicine, otherwise the medicine will be defeated first." I can't eat anything, and if I take the medicine too early, my stomach will feel nauseous, and it's not only useless to spit out the dinner I ate before, but it's also a waste of time."

Mo Ran hesitated and couldn't come back, how could she know if she had given orders for the old man's affairs.

Seeing this, Jia Lu lifted the quilt, got out of bed, and said, "Look, how can I feel relieved, change clothes, I'll go to the old man's side to have a look!"

Mo Ran couldn't help it, it was because she was guilty, and she couldn't persuade the girl, so she could only wait for her to change clothes, and then went to Jia Jing's yard.

Before approaching the yard, the strong smell of medicine came along with the wind. Jia Lu frowned. She wanted to gag after hearing too much, let alone her father who had been drinking, so she ordered,

"Now that the weather is warmer, the boiled medicine will not be easy to cool even if it is far away, so I moved the stove for decocting the medicine outside. If this thing smells too much, the medicine will not be able to drink."

Sister Qing agreed, she is an old man in Ningfu, and also in Rong'an Hall. She was left behind by Jia Lu's mother. She is cautious and gentle. Everyone in the house respects her very much. Let her be in charge of Rong'an Hall, but she has been cautious, and there will inevitably be some veneers. Even if it is spring, she is unwilling to move the medicine stove out, and must fill the yard with a strong smell of medicine.

Now there is only such a master who can call the shots in the house, and no one dares to neglect her words. After removing the medicine stove, she really feels much more comfortable.

Jia Lu went into the back room, and the room was relatively good. She often stayed in it, and often ordered someone to open the window. The smell was not particularly unpleasant. When she got to Jia Jing's bed, Jia Lu was silent for a long time.

At this time, it was the turn of Shenshi and Youshi, and it was spring just after the end of winter. Although it was not too late, the sky was gradually getting dark, and it was not time to light the lamps. The oil lamp hanging on the ceiling was still faintly lit outside the window, and it became more and more silent and strange under the swaying of the veil.

The old man was lying on the bed, his thin body couldn't support the heavy winter quilt, except for the rising and falling chest in the middle, it was impossible to tell that there was another person lying on the couch.

I don't know how long it took, maybe it was just a moment, maybe another hour, the old man on the bed suddenly woke up, and coughed heavily, breaking the silence of the room, as if he was about to cough up his lungs.

Jia Lu wiped her cheeks heavily with her sleeve, helped Jia Jing up, patted his chest lightly, and called for someone to come in.

Half a day later, Jia Jing finally stopped the loud coughing. It was obviously just the skin covering the skull. His face was red and purple. The bellows was pulling forcibly.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to pat him on the back, Jia Lu tilted her face to his back, rubbed her hard several times, coughed lightly, and took the white fungus and millet porridge from Mother Qing. The white fungus was soft and tender, and the millet was easy to eat For digestion, this is what Jia Jing should drink at this time.

Jia Jing coughed until there were stars in front of his eyes, his brain was muddled, his throat and chest were burning, his body was hot and weak, and he was completely at the mercy of others.

After drinking a bowl of hot porridge, her throat cleared up a lot, and her muddled mind finally cleared up a lot, her eyes were still a little blurry, but when she got closer, Jia Lu saw a lot more clearly and became more unfamiliar.

I don’t know if he was sick and fainted, or her sister Lu has grown up. In a trance, she is still a red-skinned monkey who couldn’t grow an arm. Brother Rong said she was happy, and Brother Qiang said she was ugly. I can't get married, and now I have two points of the grandma's elegance when she was young.

The hanging arm moved and patted the edge of the bed. Jia Lu knew what she meant, sat on the edge and asked,

"What is father's order?"
