every spring [comprehensive]

Xue Pan said: "My sister specifically told me that even if Jia Zhen begged for a higher price, how could I sell it to him? Later, I was really annoyed by him, and I didn't want to offend him because of it. I asked someone to find a The deputy Zimu will be sent over, and Jia Zhen's old man will finish the calculation."

Xue Baochai said: "This money is indeed a good thing. If you spend a lot of money, you can buy everything, but there are many things that should not be bought with money. I don't agree with this official position. You can get as much as you have. Even if you spend money to buy a high-ranking official, if you can’t control it, there will always be disasters.”

Baochai looked at Xue Pan and said, "So brother, you should serve the court well in the future. Don't try to use our family's money to buy an official. Others know how capable you are, and the people above are watching. We can go as far as we can, anyway, Niang is very satisfied with the current sixth-rank mandate, and at worst, let her sit for the rest of her life."

Xue Pan said quite complacently: "The thirteenth master praised me for my hard work on the job the day before yesterday, and your brother, I still hope that this official will be promoted again." Also quite effective.People in the military camp who are good at martial arts are not his opponents. As the saying goes, there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts. Warriors have been straightforward since ancient times. If you beat me in a fight, I will obey you and obey your orders.So now Xue Pan has great prestige in their camp and is living like a fish in water, otherwise why would he not come back for the new year.

Because concubine Jia visits relatives on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Jia family is so busy day and night, and the year has never been a good one. Although everything else has been prepared, the craftsmen have to supervise and lead the craftsmen to tie the lanterns that will be used on the fifteenth day. , pyrotechnics.No one had a good night's sleep on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month.

In the early morning of the next day, from Jia Mu down, all the wives dressed up according to their grades.Mrs. Xue was also in the ranks, and this was the first time she got on her body after she was given this imperial order.

Everywhere in the garden, there are dragons dancing in the tents, colorful phoenixes flying in the curtains, gold and silver glowing, jewels competing for splendor, incense of lilies burning in a cauldron, stamens of Changchun in vases, and no one coughs quietly.Although they got up early in the morning to prepare, Concubine Jia's phoenix chariot did not leave the palace until Xu hour at night, and they had to drive back to the palace before Yin hour, and they met for less than three hours.

Mrs. Xue, Baochai, and Daiyu, because they are relatives and not members of their family, so they waited for Concubine Jia to go to Jia's mother's room to perform the family ceremony, and then went to see each other in person. The time was too tight and there were many procedures. It was only a few words between the concubine and Mrs. Xue's farewell to the cold and warm.

Afterwards, everyone went to the Xingxing Palace. Although it was night, the lights in the garden reflected each other, the music was loud, the cigarettes were lingering, the flowers were colorful, and there was an endless scene of peace, wealth and elegance.

Concubine Jia picked a few of her favorite places: Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Hengwu Courtyard, Yihong Courtyard, Daoxiang Village, etc., renamed them, and asked all the sisters, Baoyu, Li Wan, etc. to write poems and inscriptions.

Baochai had never had much poetic talent, so she copied the poems written by Baochai, an original talented woman in the Dream of the Red Chamber, and was still praised by Concubine Jia, saying that her and Daiyu's poems were better than those of Sanchun Baoyu and others.

After Concubine Jia saw Baochai's handwriting again, she left her sitting in one place and did not ask her to return to her original seat. Concubine Jia approved the best manuscripts submitted by everyone, and let Baochai use them. The rice paper was re-copied and sent out to be mounted or carved for plaques.

After finishing the poem, they held a banquet and watched several plays, and then gave rewards. Baochai and all the sisters got a new book, a precious inkstone, and two pairs of new-style gold and silver screws.The gifts that Wang Xifeng, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Jia received were naturally in line with their identities.Even the little opera performers and the kitchen maids have their own rewards.

Not long after, the eunuch came to report: the ugly hour has arrived, please drive back to Luan.Although Concubine Jia couldn't bear to say goodbye, but the royal rules couldn't be wrong in the slightest, she had to go back to the palace with tears in her eyes.Fortunately, the emperor granted a decree that for a concubine of her rank, her family members can visit the palace once a month, and finally there is no need to separate the two places, and there will be more days to meet in the future.

Everyone in Jia's mansion has been rushing around for more than half a year, and spent countless money to build this family-saving villa. After these few hours, it finally completed its mission.It is the Immortal Mansion of Yuhu in Jinmen, the home of the concubine of Guidianlan Palace.

After this major event, all the people in the Rongning Second Mansion were exhausted and exhausted because of their dedicated efforts in the past few days.It took another three or four days for all the things that should be displayed and used in the garden to be tidied up.Others, whether tired or exhausted, went to hide and rest, such as Baoyu and other wealthy and idle people, even every day, did not know where to go to play, and secretly ran to his maid Xiren's house.

Only Wang Xifeng couldn't leave her anywhere, and because of her strong personality, she didn't want anyone to say anything bad, so she struggled to hold on.

On this day, Baochai and Daiyu were in the old lady's room, and Sister Feng still came to serve Jia's mother for dinner. The old lady Jia said, "I know you are busy, and I know you are filial. You don't need to stay with me in the first lunar month." Make the rules."

Wang Xifeng smiled: "No matter how busy I am, I will not lose the rules when I am with the old lady." The voice of Lin Zhixiao's family found the room here, and asked Sister Feng to open the warehouse and collect the gold and silver utensils. He took the key for her and continued to chat and laugh with Jia Mu.

After a while, Sister Feng said to Baochai again: "My dear sister, I heard that you will check the pulse of others. When you are free, why don't you let me take a look?"

Daiyu said from the side: "Second sister-in-law is not feeling well, why don't you invite a doctor to take a look."

Wang Xifeng said: "Oh, I haven't reached that level yet. Besides, if I ask a doctor, I don't teach people how to say it. Some people will say: I'm tired and sick after being so busy! No wonder!"

Feng girl has a hot-tempered personality, she comes and goes all day long and doesn't like to stay anywhere, so Baochai didn't look at her carefully before. When she said this, Xue Baochai looked at her face carefully, and stretched out his hand to hold Wang Xifeng's. Wrist, put it in the hand to feel the pulse, and said: "You have such a strong personality, sooner or later you will suffer."

Wang Xifeng joked: "Why, our miraculous doctor lady, really show me what's wrong?"

Baochai let go of her hand and said, "Originally, I should have congratulated you, but now it seems that it is too early to congratulate you. You should take a good rest and recuperate, otherwise you will suffer in the future!"

At first, Wang Xifeng thought she was joking with her, but when she saw Baochai looking at her seriously, she couldn't help feeling nervous, "What's wrong, my good sister, tell me quickly."

Baochai said: "Your pulse has been on for more than two months, but it's because you've worked too hard and been extremely unstable during this period. Whether you can keep it depends on how you rest in the future. Moreover, you have had a miscarriage before. , if it is difficult to preserve this time, I am afraid that there will be no hope for the rest of my life."

Wang Xifeng was so shocked that she said "Huh?", she was delighted when she said it was the pulse of joy, and a smile appeared on her face.She married Jia Lian for five or six years and had only one daughter.But listening to what she said later, it got worse and worse, and I felt a little guilty.

Baochai said: "If you don't believe me, please invite a good doctor to come over and see what they say, but you must not work any longer. It is best to lie in bed for a month or two, and then get up and walk slowly. .”

Mother Jia heard that they were taking their pulse in the room, and came out to watch the excitement. She heard all this in her ears. Of course, she didn't think that Baochai, who had always been prudent, was joking. Out of the heart of a doctor, otherwise how could I say so much.

Jia's mother hurriedly said to Ping'er who was also stunned: "What are you still doing? Hurry up and invite an imperial doctor to come over and show your grandma! What do you say!"

Wang Xifeng is quick-witted and shrewd.She is the housekeeper that Jia's mother relies on very much, and she is also her granddaughter-in-law. Compared with carrying on the family line of Jia's family, the former will naturally take a backseat.

After hearing this, Wang Xifeng lost control of her mind after concubine Jia's concubine had been tense for many days, all the exhaustion surged up, and she even passed out.

This is enough for everyone to be in a hurry, and the maids and women in the room are rushing to help, Baochai shouted: "Get out of the way, don't get together, let her be airtight, only two people come to help her." She put her on the bed."

Lin Daiyu was so frightened that she hid in the room and cried when she heard about miscarriage. Seeing that Wang Xifeng had fainted, she hurriedly said, "Hurry up and help her into my room!"

In the old lady's inner courtyard, only Baoyu and Daiyu live with her, and they cannot be sent to the old lady and Baoyu's room, the only one left is Lin Daiyu's room.After finally putting the person down on the bed, the mandarin duck who helped Wang Xifeng exclaimed in surprise: "Oh no, the second grandma has become famous!"

Mother Jia was also stunned when she heard the words, and shed two lines of tears in a daze. If so, what Baochai said was true, and if it came true so soon, the child would be lost!Although Ping'er took the post to invite a doctor, it is not certain if and when he will be able to come in this lunar new year.

Xue Baochai waved the crowd away when he heard the words, and while feeling the pulse, he took out a set of silver needles from his bosom, in fact, from the space, and pierced several large points on Wang Xifeng's abdomen, and said to Daiyu, "Xiaoer, I Say you write, let them go down and cook a bowl of medicine quickly according to this recipe!"

Daiyu hastened to sharpen the ink and write the pen, and Baochai spoke out the prescription while piercing the acupoints, as if she had already prescribed it countless times, unlike other doctors who had to think about it and think about it, Daiyu also wrote like a fly.Now that the doctor has not been invited, we can only try Baochai's method first.Mrs. Jia ordered people to go down to decoct the medicine quickly.

At this time, even if the old lady is sad, she can't cry in front of the patient. Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Li Wan and others rushed over no matter what they were doing after receiving the news.Looking at Wang Xifeng's situation, I feel that it may not be very good.

Daiyu asked, "When will Second Sister-in-law wake up?"

Baochai said: "I didn't inject her to wake her up just now, but I tried to keep the baby. She has been overworked and ill during this time, and she managed to sleep soundly and peacefully. Let her sleep. Why wake her up. "

Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing came in not long ago and didn't know the specific situation. Seeing the solemn atmosphere, especially the old lady's complexion, they didn't dare to ask Baochai directly.Hearing Baochai's words, the old lady stood up again and asked: "Bao girl, you mean that Feng girl's child might be kept?" It is well-informed, but I haven't heard that the child can still be kept after bleeding.

The old lady is not only worried about this one child, she has also heard what Baochai said before, and what she said is actually true, so the old lady believes in her words. What the old lady is afraid of is that without this, Wang Xifeng Can no longer get pregnant.

Baochai said: "Nine times out of ten it will be fine this time, but if she doesn't pay attention in the future, it's hard to say."

When Mrs. Jia heard the words, she kept reciting Amitabha beside her.

Baochai thought to himself: I don't see him as a sincere believer on weekdays, and whenever he has something to do, he hugs Buddha's feet temporarily.

Baochai's prescription contains very common medicinal materials, but the dosage of the medicine is quite heavy, and there are stocks in Jia's mansion, so the medicine is ready soon.But Wang Xifeng's teeth were clenched tightly, and the maid couldn't feed the medicine in no matter what, instead she bleed all over her neck.The old lady Jia said angrily: "Useless things! What use are you for, you are always messing around at critical moments, so hurry up and dodge!"

Baochai took the medicine bowl, felt the temperature was moderate in the tentacles, supported Wang Xifeng slightly, pinched her chin lightly with one hand, poured half of the medicine bowl into her mouth at one time, and at the same time pressed down on her esophagus with the other hand Soon, the medicine juice was guided into the abdomen, and after doing this twice, a bowl of medicine was finished.

After Wang Xifeng drank the medicine, her expression seemed to be calmer, her brows were no longer furrowed, and she fell into a deep sleep. At this moment, everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.

Only then did Mrs. Jia's brows slightly relax, "Young girl Bao has a way. If you weren't here today, I wouldn't have a backbone."

When the doctor was invited over and saw the patient, he told Baochai that it was almost the same, but it was more serious. He said that he was not sure that he could keep the child, and what happened to grandma in the future would depend on her luck.

Mother Jia ordered someone to show him the prescription Wang Xifeng had taken before. This doctor is a well-known expert in gynecology in the capital. After carefully reading the prescription, he said at the beginning: "Nonsense! Who wrote this prescription?"

This made Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others startled. Baochai Daiyu and other girls all avoided going out after the doctor came.

After taking the product himself, the doctor examined Wang Xifeng's pulse carefully, and frowned at Baochai's prescription for a while, before saying, "That's the only way. This doctor is bold in using medicine, and it really has miraculous effects. Bowen and strong will are beyond the reach of this old man!"

He is self-confident that he is a master in the apricot forest, but now he is amazed at the other doctor's techniques and prescriptions, and said: "With her, why do you call the old man to come here! His techniques are very strange, and he dares to use drugs out of the box. Maybe it's Grandma's. This baby can be saved. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the next generation to have an heir. There is already such a genius doctor in the family, so I asked the old man to come and do nothing."

Mrs. Wang said: "Doctor, you don't know. The one who prescribed the medicine was not a doctor, but a girl from our family. So my niece and daughter-in-law, I have to ask you to take over the treatment."

The doctor was stunned and said: "Miss?" He originally thought that the person who knew so much about the properties of medicine was an old man who had practiced medicine for decades at least, and was much older than himself.So he was a little disbelieving in his heart, thinking that the wife in the mansion was just perfunctory him, and said: "Madam, can I see you?"

Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang looked at each other, and Mrs. Wang said, "Why don't I ask someone to invite Miss Bao out."

So Baochai came out to meet the doctor in person, and after some exchanges, the doctor believed that the prescription was from her.Conversations between professional people naturally listened to Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others who were in a fog.After a while, Baochai and the doctor reached a consensus on Wang Xifeng's disease, and convinced the doctor to be confident in treating the disease.

Baochai said: "Although I live here as a guest, it is convenient to diagnose her pulse nearby, but I still need an experienced doctor in charge, so please do your best."

So, the doctor prescribed some medicine, and before he left, he said: "This disease is mostly caused by the patient's strong character, and he is not content with maintenance. In the future, he must not work too hard, otherwise he may not live long." Hearing the doctor's words, they all sighed in their hearts. Who would have thought that Wang Xifeng, who was always on the go, would fall ill like a mountain.

After Wang Xifeng woke up again, she had already returned to her bed at home. It was already noon on the second day, and she felt a little listless, but at the end of the day, she felt full of sleep.

Ping'er said: "Grandma is awake, but what's wrong? I'll send someone to invite Miss Bao."

Wang Xifeng waved her hand and said: "I'm fine, I just slept too much and I don't have much strength. Don't bother her. Although I suddenly didn't know anything yesterday, she must have been troubled by her personality."

Ping'er said: "That's right, Miss Bao is giving you needles and prescribing prescriptions and decocting medicine, and she followed the old lady's room to see that you are settled properly before leaving. Things about her own family will definitely come."

Ping'er helped her sit up, and said: "Miss Bao and the doctor invited at that time both said that you will not be able to go to the ground for a month, and you will be rested in bed. I just took a wet towel and wiped it for you." Hand and face, let's have breakfast, and you have to drink medicine after you eat." Wang Xifeng was really hungry, and she ate porridge with Ping'er's hand.While listening to Ping'er about what happened after she fainted.

Wang Xifeng asked: "But, I have filed for leave during this illness, and who should take care of the burden on me?"

Ping'er said: "The old lady has spoken, let the wife take care of it again, don't let you worry about anything, now the important thing is to raise the baby. But I think the wife is used to being pampered, such a trivial mess, we The grandma who has always been strong is like this, how can she control it, she doesn't know who it will fall on."

Wang Xifeng said: "No matter who it falls on, I have figured it out. Instead of fighting for power because of these trivial matters, if I really break myself, I will regret it and die. I have no place to cry. Fortunately, fortunately It's a step too early, and it's not really out of control. Otherwise, just watch, your good second master can still tolerate me! We, master and servant, will have to be driven home by him! "

Sure enough, after lunch time, Xue Baochai came to the mansion to visit Wang Xifeng.Wang Xifeng's spirit had already recovered a lot, and she was reclined on the bed. When she saw her coming, she got up to receive her again, and said, "Our miraculous doctor lady is here. Sure enough, my health belongs to you!"

Xue Baochai hurriedly took two steps forward and held her down, preventing her from getting up: "Why, I don't see you being so polite on weekdays, but now lying on the bed, you are more polite."

Wang Xifeng said: "That's different. You used to be my cousin, and I'm your older sister. You can't pick me out if you're so close to me."

Baochai smiled cooperatingly and said, "What's the difference now? You're not my sister anymore, and you're making yourself a fairy when you lie on the bed?" This look wanted to make her smile.

Wang Xifeng also showed a smile, and Danfeng looked at Baochai and said, "It's different now, you are the savior of our mother and son, so I will naturally treat you with courtesy."

Xue Baochai said: "Forget it, I don't like this here. Feng girl, you know how powerful you are this time, as long as you listen to me when you are a patient, I will take care of raising you white and fat, and mother and child are safe. If you don't listen to my arrangement, I will prepare more bitter medicine soup."

Wang Xifeng begged Rao: "My dear sister, of course what you say is what you say, but don't really boil too much bitter medicine soup for me, I am most afraid of this, sister Feng!"

Xue Baochai sat here for a while, then casually said: "Recently I heard something that you can't go anywhere in bed, so I'll tell you to relieve your boredom."

Wang Xifeng said: "That's a good thing, if Miss Bao wants to tell me a story, I will naturally listen to it."

Xue Baochai said: "This story is not fabricated by anyone. It is said that it happened a few days ago in Chang'an County, which is less than a hundred miles away from us. It is said that it was because the Jiedu Envoy of Chang'an County made a judgment on the case with a hammer. an accident."

Wang Xifeng's heart moved, she knew about this Chang'an Jiedu envoy, his name was Yun Guang, he had quite a connection with the Jia family, and he owed a lot to the Jia family. Moreover, some time ago, Wang Xifeng even asked Jia Lian to write a letter, asking Master Yun A case was broken, so 3000 taels of silver was spent.As soon as she heard that Baochai said such a coincidence, it was someone she knew, so she listened more carefully.

"In Chang'an Mansion, there is a pair of lovers who have been engaged since childhood. One is the daughter of the rich man's family, and the other is the guard son of Chang'an. Who knows that the brother-in-law of the master of the mansion will marry the daughter of the rich man's family. After the rich man weighs it, he goes to guard The family resigned, and the garrison refused to allow it, so this lawsuit came to the desk of Master Yun."

Xue Baochai paused for a moment, and Wang Xifeng asked anxiously, "What about after that?"
