Enemies in the Red Chamber
Chapter 23
The next day, the old lady ordered Jia Lian to ask Wang Xifeng to write to Mrs. Wang, saying that in the future Jia Lian would still have to be promoted by Prince Teng.He also ordered Mrs. Wang to hand over the account books in her hand one by one, and the old lady began to distribute them to Wang Xifeng bit by bit.
After repeated thinking, the old lady decided that it was Wang Xifeng and Wang Xifeng who came to support Wang Xifeng and his wife.After all, Wang Xifeng was raised by the wife of the Wang family, and the second wife was separated by a floor.This Wang Ziteng is the most promising of the four families, so he should not be easily offended, if that is the case, it is better to do as he pleases for the time being.There is girl Yuan, who is of extraordinary background, in the palace, and Baoyu's future is not in a hurry.
The old lady is also a god, just thought that Yuanchun would be blessed, and within a few days of Jia Zheng's birthday, she received an imperial decree that Yuanchun was named a virtuous concubine, and the whole family celebrated.Except for Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng who were resentful because their good prospects were completely ruined, even Jia She and Mrs. Xing were beaming, thinking that having a noble concubine in the family would make them stand taller.
Daiyu and Brother Liu also came to celebrate Jia Zheng's birthday that day, and when they heard the news, they also came out to congratulate the old lady.Seeing that all the female family members were going to put on high-grade make-up and enter the palace to express their gratitude, Mother Yi hurriedly led Daiyu to bid farewell to the old lady.On the way, she also taught Daiyu to send a letter to Mrs. Yangzhou, and what gift to send tomorrow, her words reduced her disdain for the Rongguo Mansion and gave her more respect. A matter of face.
Daiyu lowered her head and listened, but she was disdainful in her heart. She is just a childless concubine, is it worth it?In the palace, a concubine without the support of her natal family is better off than an ordinary lady.Rongning and Ningfu are acting like this, the Xue family has already lost, and the Shi family has no real power, but the Wang family relies on a prince to support it, but the follow-up is weak, so the back-up, let alone providing support, is a virtue if it does not become a drag The imperial concubine is burning incense.
Thinking more deeply, if it wasn't for the collection of three thousand honors and favors, then I don't know what Jia Yuanchun traded for the seat of this virtuous concubine.But no matter what it is, Jia Yuanchun will not get well.If it is the former one, no matter how much love you have, you will have to bear more jealousy and resentment. Love is the most unreliable thing in the deep palace, unless she has the ability to be Daji or Zhao Feiyan, even if you have such means Just make sure no one is tearing down your desk outside.The latter is even more unreliable. It has always been that the emperor will get thousands of times the interest in exchange for anything from the emperor. The Rongning and Ningfu and even the four princes and eight princes are counted. What is worth a concubine? up.
Daiyu smiled, "I've written down what Mammy said, but it doesn't matter if the imperial concubine is not the imperial concubine, the left and right are still our grandfather's house, it's just the same as before."
Wang Momo heard the indifference in Daiyu's words, and hurriedly said: "Hey my girl, there is a concubine in the house over there, the girl and brother can no longer be the same as before. There are no outsiders here. Mammy said something intimate to the girl. With the imperial concubine here, the old ladies and wives and grandmas are the ones who can talk to the nobles. Our wife can’t talk to the nobles. No matter who can speak in front of the nobles Just a few good words from the girl, and the girl will have a bright future in the future. Is it reasonable for sister Yi to talk about it?"
Today, Daiyu and Brother Liu brought only two mothers, Mother Yi and Mother Wang, because they wanted to speak to the two little masters, so they drove the big girls into the back car, and the four of them sat in the big car.
Brother Liu is not convinced anymore, he is just a concubine.With a sideways glance, "What is the imperial concubine of the Jia family doing to our Lin family? My sister is my sister. Her future needs no one to support her. Don't say such things in the future!" That Zou Xu.
Daiyu was startled for a moment, then laughed, "brother"!
Nanny Yi glanced at Brother Liu and nodded secretly. The elder girl's intelligence is obvious to all, and everyone thought that although Brother Liu was also smart, he was not as good as the elder girl. Looking at it now, this one is probably even worse. , the pride of the son of the aristocratic family is revealed in his bones.After all, he was too young and didn't understand the value of imperial power, so he pointed out: "Brother, don't mention this again. The imperial concubine and empress are the imperial concubines, but they cannot be said to belong to the Jia family. If there is a marriage, what is it meant to be married?" The surname is good. No matter what brother and girl think or think, the Lin family and the Jia family are inseparable in the eyes of outsiders, and the old lady is still here."
He said again: "Furthermore, the girl's future must depend on the master and Brother Liu. In the future, Brother Liu will be able to live well. But you can't just rely on these. You can't ignore the reputation outside. No matter how good our girl is outsiders I don’t know. It’s useless after all. And it’s not enough. If you have a good sentence in front of the nobleman, if anyone dares to say something bad in the future, you have to think about it carefully. It’s okay, girl, you have to keep it in mind.”
Daiyu and Brother Liu have already listened, these two have no experience of such a thing, they used to be nobles, and they were always the only ones who fawned on them and asked for a few good words.One was thinking that even though he knew that this time was not as good as it was back then, and that he had become too big, he still had to study his every move in the future.One frowned angrily, Longyou Shoal was being teased by shrimps, unexpectedly Zou Xu had to look at the face of a concubine's natal family now, hmph, the power of the royal family is much greater than then.Wang Momo was quite frightened, this elder sister Yi didn't treat girls and brothers as children before, and what she taught was not out of line, why is she so bold now, if she said this, she might be suspected of instigating the relationship between the Lin family and Jia's mansion, Let the wife know...
However, Nanny Yi was recruited by the master Lin Hai to teach manners. She is different from Nanny, and Nanny Wang didn't dare to refute anything, so she changed the topic, "Nowadays some people are becoming more and more impolite. It looks good, how can you be so unruly, the girl is really right to stay away from her."
When they talk about these things in the inner house, they never avoid Brother Liu. On the one hand, Brother Liu is smart and won’t talk around because of his young age. On the other hand, they also want to learn more while living in the inner courtyard After the inner house, don't let a few little girls coax you in the future.
Daiyu recognized that it was Baochai, and asked, "Did you hear anything again?"
"When we used to live in Jia's house, we just vaguely heard a few words about scriptures, marriage, fate, and so on. Now the words are becoming more and more explicit. Today is a good day for Mr. Jia Er, don't say it Others, how many daughters-in-law and girls from the branch of the family came, those little girls didn't shy away from it at all, they talked endlessly after finding a stone, who didn't know that the second master Bao had a piece of precious jade, and the girl from the Xue family had a piece of jade? Jinsuo with a history, who can’t understand the meaning of the words. If no one is behind this, I don’t believe they dare to make a bad girl’s reputation.” Wang Momo curled her lips while talking, which shows that she is extremely disdain.
Daiyu sneered, "I really dare not talk about other people's girls, but it's really hard to say about theirs. I'm still a guest girl, and I always talk about attacking musk moon. Thinking of what Xiren said in secret, he couldn't help being angry, "I really think I am half the master!"
Brother Liu saw that Daiyu was angry, so he made up his mind to deal with Xiren and Sheyue well next time.
Nanny Yi comforted Daiyu, "What are the two girls worth? Although they are big girls given by the old lady next to Master Bao, it is not easy to teach them directly, but whoever let them in the inner courtyard can always find a reason to teach them. I I feel that this matter was not done by the girl from the Xue family, but rather by the second wife. Although the girl from the Xue family also has some scheming, she is not so unbearable after all, she is as impatient as if she can't get out of the house. Didn't the mansion over there just meet What's the matter, I heard that the second wife was taught a lesson by the old lady and the second master Jia, and the second grandma Lian stayed away from her again, so I think she was in a hurry to find a helper."
Daiyu and the others may only know superficially what happened to Jia's house, but Brother Liu knows everything.Lin Butler thought that Liu Geer would be the eldest son and grandson of the head of the family in the future, so he not only did not hide the truth when doing things, but also explained it to Liu Geer.
Now when I heard Nanny Yi mention it, I couldn't help covering my mouth and snickering, "Even if Jia's family has a new mother this time, it will take a long time for our second aunt to turn around."
Wang Momo said again: "Even if the girl didn't make a move before, it won't be guaranteed in the future. Jia's family has become the natal family of the imperial concubine, which is different from before. In order to find someone for the uncle who beat someone to death The backer also has to catch up."
Wang Momo really guessed it right, there was a female family member ordered by the Jia family to enter the palace to thank her, and Aunt Xue and Baochai went back to Lixiangyuan without incident.Aunt Xue took Baochai and told her, "You didn't want to let you get closer to Baoyu before, but now you can see clearly? The younger brother of the imperial concubine, if it weren't for your aunt, where would we be able to take care of us!"
Baochai was a little ashamed and annoyed, "Mom, stop talking..." Biting her lip, she turned her back, and pressed her hands to her hot cheeks.
"Don't be upset, my son. Our mother and I are the only ones in this room. Your old man has a bad life, so he left us three early. Your mother is incompetent, and your brother has no plans in his mind. If you can The man who is the top man, our life is not as difficult as it is now. Do you think I just want the golden and precious girl from my belly to be a man of other people, let alone the son of the Duke's Mansion, the prince and prince, I feel bad too. But what can I do?" When Aunt Xue talked about her heartache, she kept crying.
Baochai's eyes were also red, and she supported Aunt Xue's back to comfort her, "Don't be sad, Mom, Baochai will listen to you from now on."
Aunt Xue swallowed her tears, took Baochai's hand and said, "Fortunately, Baoyu is also a good boy. Knowing the cold and the hot will hurt others. No matter how many women want to find such a person, they can't find one. With your aunt here, there is no one." Your mother-in-law will make things difficult for you. Now you have a noble concubine, not to mention your future. There is no dissatisfaction."
Baochai thought it was true, nodded, "It's all up to you." It's a deal.
Aunt Xue sighed, "I looked at the old lady at first to let the girl of the Lin family come in, but Lin girl is tricky and has a temper, and she doesn't get along with Baoyu. It turns out that the old lady has given up some thoughts. I'm afraid you'll think about it again when you go back to your mother to be a noble concubine. Your uncle Lin is an official of the Yanzheng Lord. I heard your father said that although the official is not a high-ranking official, he wants money and power. Back then If you are still young, you may not remember. We send gifts to Yangzhou every year during the festival. So you have to be more cautious, you know, a daughter-in-law who is in charge of the house has to be able to hold the scene. Your sister Feng still has no son , there are still serious illnesses and minor disasters, I think it will be hard to say in the future, if there is a day when Baoyu accepts the title, the clan wife will have to support the scene even more."
Seeing that Baochai was a little apprehensive, she said, "Your aunt told me about the bad things about Mrs. Lin's aunt before, and she also said that Miss Lin is weak and has no good fortune, so your aunt will never take a fancy to Miss Lin. From now on As long as you are filial to your aunt, with the character of our precious girl, I am not afraid that your aunt will not like you."
Baochai put her hands on her chest, felt the heavy golden locks through her clothes, and felt a slight movement in her heart.
After repeated thinking, the old lady decided that it was Wang Xifeng and Wang Xifeng who came to support Wang Xifeng and his wife.After all, Wang Xifeng was raised by the wife of the Wang family, and the second wife was separated by a floor.This Wang Ziteng is the most promising of the four families, so he should not be easily offended, if that is the case, it is better to do as he pleases for the time being.There is girl Yuan, who is of extraordinary background, in the palace, and Baoyu's future is not in a hurry.
