Enemies in the Red Chamber
Chapter 24
Let's say that Yuanchun won the concubine Xiande, Mrs. Wang's status will naturally rise, and the punishment is that no one will even mention it.Doubting Mrs. Wang is naturally doubting the upbringing of the virtuous concubine. Who would dare to say that the imperial concubine has an unvirtuous mother.Since no one even mentioned Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng naturally had to muddle along.
On this day, Mrs. Wang was just eating a bowl of boiled pears with rock sugar when she saw Aunt Xue coming over.
Mrs. Wang hurriedly got up to greet her, "You think I'm here, I was talking, and I haven't seen his aunt for a few days. Where's Bao girl, why didn't you come?"
"I really want to come. How many people are you welcoming and sending here? You don't have to make trouble for you. It's all right now. I have some free time. I'll come right away." Aunt Xue walked in with a smile and pulled the king away. Madam looked around with her hand, "Look, it's only been a few days, and I've lost a lot of weight. You can take good care of it, and don't dare to compare with when you were young. Girl Bao has been talking about coming to see you for a long time, but I haven't been feeling well for the past few days, so I'm resting at home, and when I come, let me bring you a well-being."
"Baby girl has always been a sweetheart."
At that moment, a girl came to serve tea and fruit, Mrs. Wang casually let them all go down, and only let a few personal servants go to the door to play, and the two of them sat and talked.
Aunt Xue approached and took Mrs. Wang's hand and secretly asked, "Did brother write again?"
Mrs. Wang's face darkened, "I just sent someone to come after the imperial decree came down, and brought some things over. Besides, let the empress take good care of the emperor, and ask the family members to be loyal to their duties and keep themselves safe, so as not to embarrass the empress." Speaking of Some choked up here, "If I can't hear it, this is beating me. You said, the empress is the flesh that fell from my body, I don't love her, I will deliberately rush to embarrass the empress What!"
Aunt Xue could only persuade, "You have always known your brother, and you are so serious in everything you do, it may not be intentional to say these things." After thinking about it, she said, "Even if it was intentional, it may not be someone's instigation. .”
Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue have always had the same standpoint, "Which one is instigating? Who else is there, isn't it our good sister-in-law?" She gritted her teeth again, "Maybe there is Feng girl's share! I thought they were all relatives, If you enter the door, you won’t say you’re helping me, and you won’t fight like black-eyed chickens like others, who would think you’d be worse than an outsider, at least you can’t look at me and get close to me and then secretly make trouble.”
Aunt Xue wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "Our sisters are also suffering. My mother passed away early, and my sister-in-law is like that. I know best. I think when I came to Beijing, I said on the surface that my brother was appointed as a foreigner." There is no one in my natal family, so I brought Pan'er and Baochai to live in this mansion. In fact, it's just that my sister-in-law didn't want me to drag my family to live there. Fortunately, there is you, so we don't let us orphans and widows live. Under the broken roof."
Mrs. Wang took Aunt Xue's hand, "What are you talking about? Don't worry, as long as I'm here, the three of you mothers won't even have a place to live. We are sisters who are close relatives, so don't we have to help each other?" Help each other live."
"That's exactly what you said." Aunt Xue took out a stack of bank notes and stuffed them into Mrs. Wang's hand.
Seeing Mrs. Wang's refusal, she hurriedly held down Mrs. Wang's hand, "I don't have much money, let me give it to your mother as a reward, it's my aunt's kindness."
Seeing that Mrs. Wang put it away, she said again: "Madam Feng is still young, she can only see what is in front of her eyes, and later she will know how to really treat her well."
Mrs. Wang sighed, "Just wait, I am an aunt and an aunt, no matter how she treats me, I can only hope for her well. Hey, I have pity on my girl Yuan, for the sake of this big family..."
Aunt Xue gave another burst of persuasion.After persuasion, the two of them talked trivial gossip together again.
Speaking of it, it can be considered that Wang Xifeng has good fortune, and he has done a few serious crimes.When something happened in Ning's mansion, there was turmoil in Rongguo's mansion. Even if Jia Zhen was shameless, she would not beg Wang Xifeng to take care of her daughter-in-law's funeral at that moment.At the time of the funeral, what Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng had done happened to be exposed. Although the old nun was still begging for money, Wang Xifeng never dared to commit crimes and intervene in the case of Li Yanei and Zhang Jinge.In this way, although the son of Shou Bing and Brother Zhang Jin have experienced some hardships, they finally became husband and wife, and the love between husband and wife became a good story for a while.After all, it was because of today that Wang Xifeng would not die in a ruined temple and be buried in a mass grave with a broken mat.
This time, Dafang had just fought a turnaround, but he was suppressed again and became silent again.Wang Xifeng and his wife really offended Mrs. Wang this time, catching up with Jia Yuanchun's Dongfeng, Wang Xifeng reluctantly handed back the real power that he had just obtained, and had to think about whether to bow to his aunt.Jia Lian had also been left out by Jia Zheng all the time, and sighed to Wang Xifeng, "When will we move to Rongxi Hall?" When I went out, I thought that this was the main conflict between my family and the second bedroom, so I suppressed the matter of bowing my head.
At night, when Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng were together, the two murmured head to head, and said through gritted teeth: "I am a serious successor, and it is impossible for me to run around like a servant in the future. "The man muttered bitterly: "Fuck, let alone an empress, or an emperor, this title should be ours or ours, and no one can try to snatch food from me!"
After that, Wang Xifeng used [-] tricks to pester Jia Lianxie in the main room all day, regardless of other people's private accusations that she was jealous and disrespectful, and made up her mind to have a grandson to inherit the family business.
Because of Yuanchun's appointment as a concubine, Baoyu was also busy for a long time, so Qin Zhong was naturally left out in the cold.Seeing that Baoyu no longer just asked every now and then, the people below gradually developed a sense of negligence. They would exchange any good things for money and wine, and only used some medicine powder to fool them.
Qin Zhong has no good medicines and supplements to support him, and he has something on his mind, and he will really die soon.Before he died, he kept saying that he wanted to see Baoyu. The brothers who were guarding the hospital bed these days were bored because of the lack of income. After listening to his words, they said sarcastically: "Let's advise brothers to save money, he is serious. The prince and grandson of the classics, the relatives of the emperor, are welcome and sent to Zhengyi at this moment. You just follow him to study and get a little affection. It depends on how many times he came here when you were sick. Can you see people behind? Brother, you are about to die now, and people will not come, how can there be bad luck on the big day."
What Qin Zhong said made Qin Zhong lose his breath, his hands trembled, and he lost his breath as soon as he rolled his eyes.
The few people were startled when they saw this, they stretched out their hands and found themselves breathless.Someone stomped their feet and blamed the person who just spoke, "You said what are you fussing about with the dying person? Didn't you hear that the two of them have even done that? I heard that the one who is the most affectionate, maybe how many times?" Oh my God, the old man remembered him again, and our brothers can earn money just by staying there for a few days. Now it’s all right, what should we do?"
There is one who has a bit of conscience and can't stand it anymore, even though Qin Zhong always looks down on people from the top and talks about dirty things. After all, people die like lights out, and their bodies are still lying here, shouldn't so cool. "Don't talk about these useless things. After all, it's a brotherhood. It's better to think about how to deal with the funeral."
At the beginning, the person who ridiculed Qin Zhong was the most stingy person, taking advantage was not enough, so how could he raise money for Qin Zhong's funeral? He thought that Baoyu would not care about the money if he had money, maybe he could send some money Small fortune.He slapped his head as if he had suddenly realized, "Brother Qin Zhong is thinking of Second Master Bao, so hurry up and send a letter to Second Master Bao. Maybe he really cares about his affection and will come to see him. At least it will be the last time."
The rest of the people thought it was the same, and hurriedly sent people to Jia's mansion to spread the word.
As soon as Baoyu heard that Mingyan said that Qin Zhong was useless, he quickly changed his coat and came over.When Baoyu saw Qin Zhong's body, he couldn't help crying when he thought of the past, and called "Jing Qing" repeatedly.At this time, Qin Zhong was already dead, and even if Baoyu called Qin Zhong again, he would not be able to return to his soul.
Seeing this, Mingyan was afraid that something might happen, so she hurriedly dragged Baoyu into the courtyard, and Qin Zhong's brothers also came out to accompany her.Baoyu wiped away his tears, and took off a pouch from his body, "Here is 50 taels of silver, give Jingqing more money and tie some girls and boys down, Jingqing has always been most afraid of being alone, so boys and girls tie a few more." , Don’t forget the cornucopia of gold and silver trees. There’s also a piece of jade pendant, take it to Jing Qing’s funeral, he asked for it from me last time, but I didn’t bring it with me at that time, who would have thought…” As he spoke, he burst into tears.
When the greedy man heard that there were 50 taels and a jade pendant, he immediately became overjoyed and reached out to take it.The other one didn't look like much, so he kicked him lightly, bowed to Baoyu and said, "That's for sure, thank you Second Master Bao for still thinking about Brother Zhong."
Baoyu bowed three more times to the place where Qin Zhong's spirit had stopped, and then went out to ride away.
Several people relaxed when they saw Baoyu leave, and they all said, "You are worthy of being the second master of Bao. The price is 50 taels. Look at this jade pendant. No matter what, it is a few dozen taels."
Those who don't want to be greedy for the dead want to say to leave the jade pendant to Qin Zhong, but also think that it is worth a few dozen taels of silver, so they don't want to offend their relatives, so they don't say it. Giving him some gold and silver treasure tree boys and maids can be regarded as a little comfort.
There was a boy next to Baoyu who could see clearly and felt that Baoyu was cold-hearted and cowardly and incompetent.It just doesn't make sense to my parents, and I can't redeem myself, so I have to keep it in my heart, thinking that I should leave Jia's mansion as soon as I have a chance.
On this day, Mrs. Wang was just eating a bowl of boiled pears with rock sugar when she saw Aunt Xue coming over.
Mrs. Wang hurriedly got up to greet her, "You think I'm here, I was talking, and I haven't seen his aunt for a few days. Where's Bao girl, why didn't you come?"
"I really want to come. How many people are you welcoming and sending here? You don't have to make trouble for you. It's all right now. I have some free time. I'll come right away."
