[Red House + Space] Falling Spring

The Jia family started a new life in the newly rented house, and everyone is trying to adapt to the huge gap in life.Although I got 400 taels of silver from the Wang family and the Shi family, this money cannot be spent for a lifetime. The family must have a source of livelihood, so they can’t just sit and eat. Therefore, several adult men in the family took on the important task of supporting the family, and The female relatives picked up needles and threads, and returned with some work from the embroidery workshop.

Luochun's needlework is good, everyone in the house knows it, but like her good craftsmanship, what people in the house know is that she works very slowly, so the main task assigned by Jiamu to Luochun is to guide the people in the house with needlework .Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng, and Jia Lian went out a few times and came back with a dark face. Although they kept silent about what happened to them when they came back, Luo Chun could vaguely guess something.

Of these three, apart from Jia Lian, who knows a lot about the world because of housework, one is a dead house, basically a young wife at home drinking and watching theaters, or looking for someone to judge antiques; Unrestrained and unrestrained, he doesn't take mundane matters as important, and in his spare time, he just reads books and plays chess with the Qing guests.What's more, these two are not young, what kind of job can they find?Even if they want to bow down for five buckets of rice, they have to be asked for by their temperament!Furthermore, even though the Rongguo Mansion declined after Jia Daishan passed away, but relying on its capable in-laws and connections accumulated over the years, it is still number one in Beijing. Can it be adjusted?It would be even uglier if we ran into old family friends and old friends when we were walking outside, and there were some malicious sneers and sarcasms.Their self-esteem may not be able to accept it, and they don't know why they feel aggrieved.But fortunately, these people still know how to behave. Although they have dark faces, they didn't come back and get angry at the family because of the trouble outside.

If you keep your negative emotions in your heart and don’t vent them out, you will easily get sick. Jia Amnesty fell ill because of this. He asked a doctor to come and treat him.Luo Chun stood in front of Jia Amnesty's hospital bed, listening to him talking nonsense when he had a high fever, and kept saying that he was a sinner, that he lost the inheritance passed down by his ancestors and so on.Luo Chun took cotton and kept wiping Jia She's dry and flaky lips due to the high fever. Hearing his painful ravings and seeing Jia She's furrowed brows lying on the bed, Luo Chun felt inexplicable.

To be honest, Luochun's impression of Jia She's father is not very good, not only because he is greedy and lustful, and his behavior is not picky, but also because of his indifferent attitude towards his wife and children.In Luochun's heart, she always felt that Jia She didn't care about anything except himself.Even if it is filial piety to Jia Mu, in Jia Mu's words, it is just a superficial effort. If there is no "filial piety" there as a benchmark for measuring honors and officials, and Jia Amnesty himself has done wrong things, so that His title has been downgraded several levels in a row, otherwise, I don't know where he would put Jiamu.As for the four children, Jia Lian, Jia Cong, Yingchun, and Luochun, I don't see him caring about them at all, and never greeting him at all. Except for Jia Lian who met Jia She from time to time because of being the housekeeper. , the other children, if they hadn't taken the initiative to ask to see him, it would be normal for them not to see each other once in ten days and half a month.Of course, compared to Jia Lian, who basically gets scolded every time he sees Jia She, and even gets punished sometimes, maybe he envies Yingchun and the three of them more. =============================

But now seeing Jia She lying on the bed who fell into a coma due to fever, Luo Chun suddenly felt that he might not know his father very well.At least he still cares about the inheritance passed down from his ancestors, so the death of the title from him should be a great blow to him.If it wasn't for Jia She's falling ill this time and hearing his raving in his dream, Luo Chun would never have imagined that going to the noble had such a profound impact on Jia She, and he hadn't noticed it at all before...

Mrs. Xing came in from the outside and asked with concern: "Luo'er, has your father's fever gone?" She interrupted Luochun's wild thoughts.Hearing this, Luochun hurriedly reached out to touch Jia She's forehead, then felt the temperature of his forehead with the back of his hand, and then said: "It's back, it's not so hot anymore." Mrs. Xing looked at Luochun's red eyes, feeling distressed He said: "I have been guarding for so long, and your eyes are blurred. You should go to sleep for a while. Your father has me here."

Luo Chun took out his pocket watch from his pocket to look at the time, shook his head and said: "Forget it, it's less than half an hour before the meal time, if you want to rest, I will go to rest after the meal Not too late." Mrs. Xing sat down beside Luochun, and sighed: "That's right, it's no different now than before. In the mansion, no matter what time you want to eat, the chef will prepare it for you. Now There are only two people in the kitchen, and the old lady has said that firewood, charcoal, etc. should be used sparingly, so I dare not keep turning off the fire.”

The day after Jia Amnesty fell ill, Jia's mother also fell ill.Hearing Mrs. Xing mention Jiamu, Luochun quickly asked: "How is the old lady's illness?" Mrs. Xing sighed and said: "It's nothing serious, your second sister and the others are watching. It's just that the old lady is sick Age, now is no better than when I was in the mansion, all kinds of nourishing herbs can be eaten as food, so the old lady suffered a lot after going through this disease."

In fact, not only Jia Mu, but also Jia Amnesty.Years of drinking and sex had hollowed out Jia She's body. When he was in the mansion, he relied on precious tonics to nourish Jia She, so that Jia She could continue to drink and have fun with his little wife at such an advanced age.Otherwise, even if he was a wimp, if Jia She hadn't been in poor health for a long time, he wouldn't have fallen ill so quickly.

Mrs. Xing sneered and said: "It is said that 'A friend in need is a friend'. This is not true. The old lady's disease has tried out this person. At the beginning, the old lady was so partial to the second wife and loved Feng girl, but Now that the old lady has fallen ill, who is she finally serving in front of her hospital bed? It is the second girl and the fourth girl. Hello second uncle and good second aunt are just calling and asking sooner or later. Among you granddaughters If you want to say that the old lady is biased, because Sanya was born in the second room, she also treats Sanya differently, but there is no sign of Sanya in front of her hospital bed. Feng girl, even if she plays tricks every day, she will be pulled down, the old lady It's a waste of love for them. But Baoyu has a heart, and knows to stand by the old lady, after all, the old lady's love for him has not been wasted."

Luochun smiled bitterly, and said: "Third sister and second sister-in-law may not want to stay in front of the old lady, but they are powerless. I heard from Ping'er that third sister was locked up in the house by second aunt to do needlework, so she couldn't leave easily. As for the second sister-in-law, the eldest sister is still young, and this is the age when she can't be separated from others. Now that there is no nanny and girl, I have to do it myself. Although there is Ping'er to help, there are so many things in the house. Ping'er also lacks the ability to separate himself. I heard that Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao on the second uncle's side are being teased around by the second aunt, and they hardly have time to spare."

"This time your second aunt can't care about her compassionate face, she has shown her true colors." Mrs. Xing sneered, and said: "You don't know yet, although the third girl was detained in the room doing needlework, but she What you are doing is not the work assigned by the old lady, but the work that your second aunt took over from the embroidery workshop. Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao also shared a lot of needlework besides the daily work. The second room is saving private money Well. Now, the life of Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao is not easy. Aunt Zhao has three girls and brother Huan, and there is still hope in the future, so it’s okay to be a little bit tired, and it’s over by gritting your teeth. But Aunt Zhou What a pity, when you were in the mansion, your second uncle might not have stepped into Aunt Zhou's room once a year. I didn't expect him to bring Aunt Zhou out, but now it seems that he took Zhou Auntie out. Auntie is now a worker. If I had known this, Auntie Zhou would not have to come out and stay in the house and wait for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to deal with it. Maybe it would be easier than it is now."

Among the group of people who came out of Jia's mansion, Jia Cong's biological mother had passed away, and Jia Amnesty did not bring out even a single aunt.Jia Zheng's two aunts, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao, were brought out.Aunt Zhao came out, Madam Xing was not surprised, after all, Jia Zheng still dotes on Aunt Zhao, and Aunt Zhao gave birth to a pair of children, she was surprised that Jia Zheng actually put Aunt Zhou in the mansion almost He also brought out people who had been forgotten by him.

"This time your second aunt can't care about her compassionate face, she has shown her true colors." Mrs. Xing sneered, and said: "You don't know yet, although the third girl was detained in the room doing needlework, but she What you are doing is not the work assigned by the old lady, but the work that your second aunt took over from the embroidery workshop. Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao also shared a lot of needlework besides the daily work. The second room is saving private money Well. Now, the life of Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao is not easy. Aunt Zhao has three girls and brother Huan, and there is still hope in the future, so it’s okay to be a little bit tired, and it’s over by gritting your teeth. But Aunt Zhou What a pity, when you were in the mansion, your second uncle might not have stepped into Aunt Zhou's room once a year. I didn't expect him to bring Aunt Zhou out, but now it seems that he took Zhou Auntie out. Auntie is now a worker. If I had known this, Aunt Zhou might as well not come out and stay in the mansion, waiting for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to deal with it. Maybe it would be easier than it is now."

Among the group of people who came out of Jia's mansion, there were no real slave girls and women. There were two half-master and half-slave aunts, two of Jia Zheng's aunts—Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhou, and one Tong Fang Da girl - Ping'er.Jia Cong's biological mother has passed away, and Yingying Yanyan, who was in front of Jia She, got into a fight with Jia She when the situation in the mansion was not good, so Jia She didn't bring out even one aunt.As for Jia Zheng's two aunts, Mrs. Xing was not surprised that Aunt Zhao followed. After all, Jia Zheng still loved Aunt Zhao very much, and Aunt Zhao gave birth to a pair of children. It was quite unexpected to bring out Aunt Zhou, who was almost forgotten by him in the mansion.

In fact, Mrs. Xing and Luochun didn't know that the reason why Aunt Zhao was able to come out was not due to Jia Zheng's credit, but because Jia Lian's officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs made such a statement.When Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng and Jia Lian were negotiating with Prince Zhongshun, they were so frightened by Prince Zhongshun that they didn't know what to do. Basically, he was whatever they said, and they didn't care about the lives of their wives and children.He couldn't even take care of his wife and children, so Jia Zheng didn't care about Aunt Zhao, so he didn't mention Aunt Zhao from the beginning to the end.Jia Amnesty would not even pay attention to such things. It was Jia Lian who thought of Aunt Zhao when he was talking about Tanchun and Jia Huan with the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. She is a middle-aged woman who has already given birth to children, so even if she sells it, she can't sell it for a high price, not to mention, the other property in the mansion has been seized by Prince Zhongshun, so he can share a fortune with him and make a fortune , so he was in a happy mood, so he was happy to be a good person, raised his hand, and removed the two concubines of the second room, Heping'er, from the list, allowing them to leave with the Jia family.

Unlike Mrs. Xing and Luochun, before the mansion was besieged, they let out all the capable and capable people around them. When the other masters in the mansion reduced their manpower, they left behind them all who were caring.Thinking of Yuanyang, Jin Chuan, Xiren, Qingwen, Siqi and a series of people, Luochun couldn't help saying: "I don't know what is the situation of the people left in the mansion?" Maybe the Ministry of Internal Affairs will leave some people behind Use, but not all the people will be left behind, some of the slaves will definitely be sold, I don't know who is on the sales list, and where will they be sold?

Mrs. Xing said indifferently: "Who knows. It's good that we can take care of ourselves now, but you still have time to take care of others. We've settled down now. Let's go back to Xing's house sometime. I need to discuss it with your uncle, if there is someone in the mansion that you are thinking about, when you see your uncle, you can tell him and let him inquire about it for you."
