A visit to Fangchun

The mother-in-law supported Jia Tanchun and walked slowly to Jiamu's main room.But Jia Tanchun walked slower and slower, and his face became paler as he walked.The mother-in-law felt a little flustered, and persuaded in a trembling voice: "Third Miss, this Miss Jin Chuan'er is the wife's maid, and the girl played with her from childhood to adulthood, but she is a servant after all, so there is no need for the girl to do this." .”

Tanchun shook his head and shouted in a low voice, "Don't speak!"

She is thinking about something.

It's just that the more I think about it, the more confused I become, the more I think about it, the more timid I become, and the more I think about it, the more sad I become.

When they arrived at the gate of Jiamu Courtyard, Tanchun let go of his mother-in-law, and asked her wearily: "Go. Just say what I say, go to Qiushuangzhai to find Zhao Mama, and get some reward money."

The mother-in-law went away happily.

Tanchun almost moved into Jiamu's room after taking one step at a time.

Someone inside had told Jia's mother a long time ago: "The third girl is here, but she asked a woman to help her here."

When Jia's mother was sinking, she hurriedly raised her head to look at Tanchun, but she saw that her face was full of confusion, her eyes were hopeless, and she couldn't help feeling sad, and stretched out her hand to her: "Three girls, the old ancestor is here, come quickly."

Tanchun staggered a few steps and threw himself into Jia Mu's arms, and suddenly burst into tears: "Old ancestor, why is this, why is this!"

Mother Jia waved everyone down, not even the mandarin ducks stayed in the room.

Hu Po was a little puzzled, so she pulled Yuan Duck and asked quietly: "What's the matter? When in this life have you seen the third girl cry so sadly?"

Yuanyang didn't quite understand either, so he bit his handkerchief and guessed: "Didn't the news just come that Jin Chuan'er, who had been with his wife for more than ten years, was kicked out the other day, and he just found out that he committed suicide by throwing himself into a well? Probably because This is sad."

Hu Po's eye circles were also red, she wiped it, choked up, sniffed, and said: "If you say that we grew up together as children, and we are all slaves, standing in a row to be taught, beaten, scolded, Picking and picking, growing up and serving the masters, back and forth, deep friendship, so sad. The third girl grew up with the old lady since she was a child, and she was not so close to the wife. Not to mention Jin Chuan'er. Now that she can't think about throwing herself into the well, the third girl should go to comfort the wife, why did she come to cry for the old lady?"

Yuanyang shook her head and sighed, "Don't think about it. Why do you know so much?"

A thought popped into her mind just now.

Jin Chuan'er, did she commit suicide because she knew too much? !

Mother Jia hugged Jia Tanchun, who was crying heartbrokenly, and she was also in tears. She patted her and murmured: "Grandmother is incompetent, grandma is incompetent..."

Jia Tanchun cried for the first time, raised his head, and looked at Jia Mu worriedly: "Old Ancestor, please don't be angry, don't think too much..."

Jia Mu's eyes sharpened, she disappeared again, and asked her kindly: "Have you not let go yet? Are you still investigating?"

Jia Tanchun sat up straight, lowered his head, and answered softly.

Jiamu raised her face, took her own handkerchief, wiped her tears carefully, and said with a smile, "I know, you are sad for your second brother. Last night, Yuanyang persuaded me, saying that I wanted to You think too much and others think too little, that's why you put your second brother at risk. But now it seems that our grandchildren think too little, too simple and too clean!"

Tanchun was taken aback, and held Jia Mu's hand: "You knew about it last night? Or, or is there something else?"

Mother Jia hesitated to speak, patted her hand, and sighed: "Forget it. The more I know, the more troubled I am. I will tell you when it is time to tell you." Pause, then gently Wrapping Tanchun's hands tightly, he asked, "How did that girl Jin Chuan'er die?"

Tanchun heard the inducing meaning in Jia Mu's words, and couldn't help but shed tears again, crying and said: "I don't know either. I think she disobeyed the wife, and the wife kicked her out to reflect. Who knew she If you are so angry, you will throw yourself into the well..." I couldn't say any more, covered my face with a veil, and burst into tears again.

Jia Mu hugged her in her arms, patted her, and said sadly: "Good boy, good boy, it's hard for you..."

Suddenly, Yuanyang knocked on the door and came in to persuade Jiamu and Tanchun, and said in harmony: "Maybe it was just an accident. I know she has a habit of going to the southeast corner to talk to Huashujing whenever she has something unhappy. Listen to the water. I must have woken up this morning and fell into it when the water on the well platform slipped. Although she usually has a bad temper, she is very good at comforting herself and has a very wide heart. Things like throwing wells, she Can't do it."

Mother Jia nodded again and again: "It must be so, it must be so. Tell your wife that since you have been with her for many years, you must be as good as half a daughter. If you want to reward more, reward more, don't I didn’t dare to follow the rules at home.”

Tanchun couldn't take it anymore, stood up and said goodbye and went back.

Seeing that Mother Jia was not happy, Yuanyang sat beside her and advised her in a low voice: "Even if there is something wrong at home, the old lady has to treat it as nothing. Besides, no one says something is wrong now! Otherwise, the whole family will look at your face and be uncertain." What nonsense are you talking about. You can relax and take care, Miss San, Second Master Bao, and Miss Lin, which of them can't expect you to make decisions for them?"

Mother Jia sighed, and reached out to her: "Help me to lie down, and beat my legs."

Yuanyang hurriedly said: "It's just right. Cui Mo who was next to the third girl taught me the other day, pinching the feet and beating the legs can also relieve depression. I will give the old lady a try."

When Jia Baoyu came back from seeing Jia Yucun and heard it, he felt that he was hurt within five years, and was scolded and taught by Mrs. Wang. Baochai could only go out when he came, and he was at a loss as to where he was going.

Such a bright and charming girl was kicked out by his wife just because she made fun of herself, and she threw herself into a well and died?

Why?It's true that life is hard, and it's true that things are impermanent. Because I was kicked out by my wife, my reputation was damaged, and it's also true that life will be difficult in the future.But with her ten years of experience with her wife, her knowledge and skills are all there, how can she live a bad life?

Why die?Why did she have to die?Why not just come and find a way for yourself?

Baoyu didn't know where he went or what he was thinking, so he walked along.But he met Jia Zheng again.

Jia Zheng was already angry because he was absent-minded when he saw Yucun just now, and now he was even more angry when he saw him coughing and sighing like this.Just as he was about to give Baoyu a good lesson, suddenly someone came back and forth: "Someone from Prince Zhongshun's residence is here to see the master."

Jia Zheng was puzzled: he never dealt with them, why did he send someone here today?Do you still know that I am in the government?Busy life: "Please!"

Jia Yucun hurried back to his residence on Xinglong Street, and when he entered the door, he ordered his servants: "Close the door! No one will come! Just say that I am out of town and not at home!"
