Mrs. Xing reversed the Dream of Red Mansions

Jia She knew that when Jia Mei came, she was having a drink with a guest. Jia Lian's marriage was arranged at a time when his life was at a low point. His in-laws did not dislike him, and this caused his son's marriage. He was very happy. His people suddenly increased, but from his point of view, no one has such quasi-in-laws to make people feel comfortable.

"Come as soon as you come, just tell Madam." For this younger sister, Jia Amnesty didn't have a big cold, compared to when he found Jia You, his patience was almost worn out by Jia Mei.

At the beginning, Jia You provided her address and sent someone to look for her. The person who came back said that the second aunt's husband had died and she was a widow. She was living with her two children. not good.

Jia Amnesty was very anxious when he heard this, and asked why he didn't just bring the second aunt back.When they left, he had confessed that if the second aunt had a hard time, he could take her back directly.

But the man said: "The second aunt doesn't want to come back." Jia She knew in her heart that Jia Mei was not as good as Jia You, and she was afraid that the old lady's resentment would turn on him.

At first he felt a little guilty, and sent people to deliver things to Jia Mei frequently, so as to support her and prevent her in-laws from bullying her. They are not very welcome, although they are servants, they can't even drink their saliva when they go.The people Jia Amnesty sent were extremely loyal, he trusted them very much, and believed that they would not make up nonsense and drive a wedge between him and Jia Mei.

This is why Jia Mei does not intend to "reconcile" with him.Jia Amnesty also threw it away, the one who was sorry for her was the old lady and her father, it had nothing to do with him, it wasn't about sisterhood, why bother to stick to others.

But he didn't expect that when he let go here, Jia Mei turned around?Come back as soon as you come back, the Rongguo Mansion doesn't have a few bowls of rice for her mother.

When he heard that Wang Xifeng had also come, Jia She frowned. He knew the situation of the Wang family much better than Xing Wei. Bought it back.But because Wang Xifeng and Wang Ren found out that their father's death was related to Wang Ziteng and they were the victim's children, they were exempted from selling them.It's just that I don't know why I have to wait for this happy day before coming here, is it because I'm afraid of being kicked out by them?Also, she came by herself, where is Wang Ren?

Wang Xifeng was engaged to Jia Zhu a long time ago, regardless of her young age and the fact that she is also the victim, but only because she is Jia Zhu's future daughter-in-law. It is also limited to taking the initiative to defect, if this person does not come for the rest of his life, he will treat it as if there is no such person. As for Jia Zhu's marriage, is he afraid that he will not find a wife for his nephew?As for the members of the Wang family, he was somewhat intimidated.

"Bad luck," Jia She said knowing it, so he stopped asking.

After seeing off He Xi's guests, Xing Wei had the time to ask about Jia Mei and Wang Xifeng's situation. It happened that the servants had inquired clearly and what they returned was clear, so she could make a specific arrangement.

Jia Mei's eldest son is already 12 years old. I heard that he has passed the examination of scholar, and his studies are considered excellent.

Last year, I participated in the Enke University, and this year, there are more chances to take the exam than usual. This Jia Mei has some eyesight. Xing Wei knew that she would calculate and refuse to suffer. Now it seems that she is also very knowledgeable about current affairs. For the sake of his son, he had to bow his head and come to the gate of Rongguo Mansion.

I sent someone to visit her earlier, so naturally I would not empty-handed every time, Jia Mei kept the gift, but she didn't even give her a sip of water. She seemed stubborn, but she was also a person who didn't suffer.

No, for the sake of her son, she bowed her head and came by herself without being invited, Xing Wei thought, she came here on the day of Jia Lian's engagement, was she worried that Jia Amnesty and her would deny her and throw her out of the house? ah?Xing Wei had asked before, Jia Mei's mother and son came all the way to the capital, although they were poorly dressed, they didn't look dusty, so it wasn't the first day they came to Beijing.

When they sent someone to find Jia Mei, they had already found out about her situation and temper.Jia Mei has a certain "personality" that is shrewd, vicious, and full of revenge.

The dowry and girl arranged by Jia's mother were similar to those of Jia You, except that she left the capital much later than Jia You, so it can be arranged, at least, when she returned to her hometown with her husband, she had a sum of money in her hand.It's just that she was not lucky, and she didn't meet such a good man as Jia You's husband, and her mother-in-law was also very disappointed that she had a reputation as an empty-headed young lady of the Rongguo Mansion, but she couldn't bring any use to her son, and had to waste rice and food for nothing. A daughter of gold and jade.

Like Jia You, Jia Mei refuses to let go of her airs and learn from her mother-in-law and her husband. She also hides her private money from her in-laws. There is still a market, and it can be sold for a few taels of silver in a year, which is enough for her to eat and drink, so her mother-in-law endured and did not have a seizure.She was also lucky, and gave birth to a son to her husband in the second year, and her mother-in-law and husband treated her a lot better, but her mother-in-law was used to being shrewd, and her husband was also ruthless towards him. He's a rare person, and there are quite a few girls who fall back on him. This man is also not at a disadvantage.

How could Jia Mei let someone threaten her and her child's status? She didn't know how to do it. Her husband's health gradually deteriorated. After she gave birth to her second daughter, she left.

The mother-in-law kept scolding her for being a prodigal, saying that her daughter killed her father and completely drove her three mothers out of the house. At this time, Jia Mei took out the money she had saved from her private house and moved to the town to sell the house and land. A few of them were not short of food and clothing, and even sold servants to serve them, which completely angered her in-laws.

When her husband was ill, the family spent a lot of money on soup and medicine, and her mother-in-law also ran out of her stock, but Jia Mei refused to give it. It can be said that her husband died due to lack of medical care and medicine.

The in-law's family made a big fuss, occupied her house and land, and sold the servants they bought, and their mothers returned to poverty. If it weren't for the fact that she had raised two children for her grandchildren Actually, Jia Mei's mother-in-law didn't know if she would sell Jia Mei too.

Fortunately, Jia Mei's craftsmanship is still there, and she is willing to endure hardships for the sake of the children. After all, she gritted her teeth and rented a house in the town for her son to study, and she even got a degree in the exam.Of course, the fact that her son was able to study in the past few years was not unrelated to the fact that Jia She found her and gave her money. After all, her own earning was limited, and she still couldn't afford the pen, ink, paper and inkstone for her son's study and the New Year's filial piety to the teacher.Seeing that she was supported by someone, her in-laws' family did not dare to bully her casually, and even flattered her to some extent, which is why she left a gift.

Jia Mei also asked people from the Rongguo Mansion to help her ask for her house and land. Although Jia Mei's property was taken by her husband's family, she was also at fault. , and probably hated Jia Amnesty because of this.In short, Jia Mei is a vengeful person. She obviously has money on her body, and there is a lot of money, but she refuses to save her husband's life——Xing Wei even wonders whether her husband's death is related to her. Regardless of his life, he would rather raise his children and grow up by himself, how arrogant it must be.

Such a person, how could Xing Wei spend his heart and soul with her, it can only be arranged from a distance, and peace of mind is out of sight.

Jia Lian was engaged, and there were a lot of guests at home. Xing Wei was too lazy to "entertain" this shrewd young lady, so she ordered someone to arrange for her to live in Lixiangyuan. Arrange it far away so that it is convenient for them to go out without talking, and they will be clean.

For Jia Mei and Jia You, Xing Wei naturally has a different heart. If you respect me a foot, I will pay you back a foot. Jia You wants to please. Yes, Xing Wei would not take the initiative to talk to her, otherwise she would only get more and more excited, feeling that everyone in the world was sorry for her, who knows what she would do when she got angry.

As for Wang Xifeng, it was a bit difficult to arrange. She was engaged to Jia Zhu, but being unmarried, it was not easy to arrange for her to live with Jia Zhu.There are plenty of courtyards in the Rongguo Mansion, and one is specially given to her, and she is served by a girl and woman. Xing Wei is not happy in her heart.But it's impossible not to find a suitable place for her to live in. Anyway, she has the name of Jia Zhu's fiancée, so she can't be talked about for Wang Xifeng, and she will hurt the children in the future.

"Does the girls' school have a place to stay?" Xing Wei thought of Jia's Girls' School, which was the original residence of her and Jia She. Except for the girls going in and out during the day, there seemed to be a female teacher surnamed Ke who stayed there and arranged for Wang Xifeng. There, you can just read books, recognize characters, learn the rules, and see your character.

Xing Wei is very concerned that the daughter of the Wang family in the original book is illiterate. Here, Wang Xifeng still hasn’t read any books. Wang Xifeng went to study and study the Fa. If she was still stubborn, she would have to reconsider Jia Zhu's marriage. Xing Wei didn't like Wang very much, and Wang Xifeng had a "crime record" in her heart. Wei was naturally on guard against her, so she would not allow Wang Xifeng's little bad behavior to bring Jia's family down.

"Yes, it happened that the room next to Teacher Ke was still vacant. It was originally reserved for Teacher Liu, but after she found her nephew, she moved in to live with him, so it became vacant." The Rongguo Mansion was funded by the Guofu and the Ningguo Mansion, and the Rongning and Ningfu Mansions sent people to take care of it, so they naturally knew everything about it.

"Then arrange it there," Xing Wei thought for a while, "give her a clever little maid, do you know how to arrange it?"

"know."

"Well, let's go." Teacher Ke only has two maids serving her. Wang Xifeng's first-year student, naturally, can't pass her. If it weren't for the fact that she was a relative, she wouldn't even have to be a maid for her, just because she came here to study. There is a rule that people are not allowed to take people with them, in order to train the students' independence and reduce their dependence.On the other hand, Jia's Girls' School accepts mostly the daughters of clan families. Some clan families are poor and cannot afford to support girls to serve the girls in the family. Doing so can also avoid some comparisons and embarrassment.

The reason for giving Wang Xifeng a maid is because she used to be a petite sister of Jin Zun Yugui, who can't do anything, so she should be matched with a maid, or someone to serve her, so as not to make her look ugly, saying that she is from the Rongguo Mansion. People are ungrateful and ungrateful, and they don't even want to save face; the other thing is to monitor, so that they don't know if Wang Xifeng does something bad.

Both Jia Mei and Wang Xifeng probably knew that they were not liked by others, but they did not take the initiative to seek friendship with Xing Wei, but Jia Mei asked her pair of children to kowtow to Xing Wei to recognize their relatives.

Xing Wei is also not confused, she has a prejudice against her mother, so she vents her anger on the children, not to mention giving a generous gift, and even carefully asked the children about their studies.The man Jia Mei married was surnamed Chen. The eldest son, Chen Ming, was 12 years old and already had a reputation as a scholar. His daughter, Chen Jin, was ten years old this year. She seemed to help her mother with housework a lot, and her hands were covered with calluses. coming.

Xing Wei asked about the children's reading situation, and Chen Ming expressed that he wanted to study and improve with Jia Lian and Jia Ying. This was probably his mother's order. He was a little embarrassed when he said it. Xing Wei frowned. Studying with Mrs. Zhang is not so much a famous teacher who produces a high-level apprentice, but an old man who is used to it. In his later years, he has a grandson by his side to relieve boredom.This Jia Ying was usually too noisy and didn't feel at ease studying, because he had his own words, the old man couldn't manage them, and he was quite critical. If Jia Lian hadn't been influenced by him to study, Jia Ying might have been packaged and sent back.When Chen Ming sent it over, he didn't know how he was studying, whether he could keep up with the progress, or whether it would affect Jia Lian.

The old man can teach Jia Ying, but he may not give Jia Mei face and let his son study.

"You go to the ethnology school first. Your second cousin is studying with his grandfather. This old man is getting old and his health is failing. I said earlier that when your second cousin is out this time, he will retire. "Xing Wei did not agree to him. Although Jia Lian said he was engaged, he was more happy for the Yu family. This year he is bound to end up in the exam. The old man said that Jia Lian has a reputation. Yes, the meaning is similar to what Xing Wei said. After Jia Lian passed the Juren examination, he was about to resign from teaching. He also greeted them and found a suitable teacher for Jia Ying as soon as possible.

The old man was used to talking around the bush, if Jia Lian hadn't come back and said, Xing Wei might not have understood what the old man meant.I am afraid that Jia Ying is not studying well, and I feel unhappy.

Chen Ming was stunned for a moment, but he didn't say anything else. He only heard from his mother that the second cousin's grandfather used to be the emperor's teacher. If he could worship under his name, it doesn't matter how many books he has read. Having a relationship will be of great benefit to the future.Since his aunt had said this, he didn't have much to say, so he said: "It's all up to my aunt's arrangement." He once thought about going to his uncle, Jia Amnesty. Usually, men are in charge of this matter, but uncle also I don't know if he was angry with his mother, excused something, and didn't see him, so he had no choice but to come to his aunt.

Chen Ming was detained by Jia Mei to study, and it was not because he didn't know the situation at home. If his uncle Jia She hadn't sent someone to find them, his mother Jia Mei and younger sister Chen Jin's needlework would not be able to support him in studying for a scholar. Not to mention Shu repairing pens, inks, papers and inkstones, their mother and daughter have to work day and night with only one year's food, drink and renting a house, and there is spare money for him to study.

His mother told him about his childhood. If it weren't for "grandmother" Shi, she wouldn't have been reduced to the little sister of the Duke's family who worked day and night to make ends meet. It doesn't seem appropriate on him, especially since my uncle has shown enough sincerity, it would be too much for his mother to do this again, but as a son, his mother did all this for him, so Chen Ming couldn't say anything, so he had to Study hard to repay your mother's kindness.

This time, the mother suppressed her temper and brought them to seek refuge with her uncle. She had already made a great determination, and she also told him that she must rely on the Rongguo Mansion.It turned out that they didn't know, and thought that the Rongguo Mansion was the same as usual, but it was an old noble, and sooner or later they would be used for surgery.

After entering the capital, there were rumors about Rongguo Mansion everywhere, and most of them talked about the prosperity and prosperity of Rongguo Mansion. Then my mother was moved and brought them here to seek refuge. My aunt didn't care about their life or death, and deliberately picked the day when my second cousin Jia Lian got engaged to come to the door.

Chen Ming knew that his mother was stingy, so he might have mistrusted his uncle and aunt. How could an aunt who treats her stepson selflessly have such a big prejudice against her? Their mother and son, just leave it behind.

Chen Ming knew it in his heart, but his mother had already told him to study with his second cousin's grandfather, but his first aunt had other arrangements, and he would inevitably be talked about by her again when he went back. Some came out.

Xing Wei naturally heard Chen Ming's reluctance in answering, but she pretended not to hear that the old man was willing to take Jia Ying, not only to save face, but also to see that he was Jia Lian's brother, otherwise, the old man's own grandson would still give it to him. When she went to the academy to study, she didn't even teach her herself. What face would she have to arrange for her nephew to trouble the old man to teach her? "Our ethnology is now being grasped by your Uncle Jing in Ningguo Mansion. In the past few years, there have been quite a few talents, and we have specially invited famous teachers to guide these talents. I hope they will go further. As far as I know, There are also a few candidates from our family studies, and the one with the best ranking is also No. 16, which is already very good." Examination for Juren is different from examination for Jinshi, as long as you are on the list, it is enough. For the scholars who passed the college entrance examination, depending on their personal wishes and family circumstances, Rongning and Ningfu will help them to go to the academy for further studies. If they really don't want to go or can't go, they also invited famous teachers to guide them, but it didn't delay their studies.Later, other scholars saw that their grades were similar to those of those who went to the academy, and they had less travel expenses, so they also worshiped under the teacher's name. Later, when there were more people, they set up a special class for scholars.

If Chen Ming goes, it happens to be in that class.

Xing Wei briefly introduced the situation of the scholar class to him, and Chen Ming also felt a little yearning for it. Compared with Mr. Zhang, he was actually willing to study in this class. Mr. Zhang was too famous, and he himself I don't have a specific estimate of my studies, I just guess based on a few words with Jia Lian and Jia Ying, and I know that there is a big gap between myself and them, and if there is a gap, I will feel inferior. I might as well follow the scholars in the ethnology. A big pot of rice, at least you can make a few more friends, which will be beneficial to the future.

When Chen Ming went back, he told Jia Mei that his eldest aunt had arranged for him to study in the Jia clan, and it was inevitable that he heard his mother, Jia Mei, talking about it a few times. But she also knew that it was far-fetched for Jia Lian's grandfather to guide her son to study. Said that Jia Ying also studied with Jia Lian, and didn't work very hard, so he felt that it was a waste of a teacher like Mr. Zhang. It would be better to let his son study with Mr. Zhang instead of Jia Ying.

Originally, he also thought that the old lady of the Xing family was impartial and selfless, but when it came to her son's future, she was also selfish.Jia Mei was unhappy, but she also knew that she couldn't change the fact that she was already short in three visits, and she was at the mercy of others.After listening to her son explaining the results of the Jia clan school, she was barely satisfied, but she was still worried, and told her son: "Go to the school tomorrow and inquire carefully. If you don't look like what your aunt said, you don't have to hide it when you come back." Me, when I go back, I will go to your uncle personally and let him make decisions for our mother and son." In the end, Jia Mei was still worried about Xing Wei, even though she hated Jia She, she had to ask for it. Da, I still know Jia She's temper, his face is cruel and his heart is soft, as long as she is willing to put down her body to ask, not to mention that this is also a matter for his nephew to study and improve, there should be no problem.

Jia Mei asked about her son's condition, and then turned to her daughter Chen Jin, "What did your eldest aunt tell you?"

Xing Wei arranged for Chen Ming, so naturally Chen Jin would not be left behind. Relatively speaking, she felt more distressed about this girl, a ten-year-old girl, she could tell from the calluses on her hand that this girl usually helped the family with things, so Chen Ming's body As a boy, his hands are white and clean, with few traces of labor. When Xing Wei saw Chen Jin's hands, he knew that Jia Mei was also patriarchal.

"My aunt has already arranged for me to go to the girls' school. I just need to go there at Tianchen time. She has already asked someone to say hello to the school." Chen Jin was happier than her elder brother Chen Ming. The opportunity to read and write, originally she learned a few words with her brother, but later her mother disliked her for delaying her brother's studies, so she didn't let her brother teach her. Knowing how to read a few words has become a dream in her heart. How can she not be happy if her dream comes true this time.

"Others, did you say that you will be equipped with a little girl, the nanny in charge, and there are arrangements for food and clothing." Jia Mei is most dissatisfied with these. She has already inquired about it. Jia Min returned to her mother's house last year. At that time, there were people who lived in the large courtyard of the inner courtyard. Although the Lin family had domestic servants to serve them, Xing Wei also arranged for a rough envoy and a maid. These were both aunts and grandmothers. She had two large courtyards and dozens of servants to order her; when Jia Mei came back, she had only a small Lixiangyuan, and there were not many servants to serve her.

"Auntie didn't say anything," Chen Jin was already very satisfied. Earlier at home, she and her mother did not do anything. From the time she knew how to do things, she learned to help her mother with housework. Later, when she was older, her mother was good at embroidery. Big things, get more wages, she can't be too busy, and she has taken care of the chores at home. After so many years of work, suddenly there are so many servants to take care of her, so she doesn't have to work. She is still not used to it, but , she will be able to read and write in the future, and there will be no extra time to work, so she is extremely satisfied in her heart.

Chen Jin has always listened to the words of her mother Jia Jiu when she urged her brother to study, "As long as you study hard, you will be able to stand out in the future and live a life of excellence. You don't have to do it." Mother Jia Mei also told her with practical actions Well, my elder brother Chen Ming can read and write, so he doesn't have to do housework, he can open his mouth and stretch out his clothes when he eats, and now she also needs to read and read, so naturally she doesn't have to do housework and be a master.

Jia Mei was dissatisfied but she didn't say much. She didn't know the temperament of this new old lady for the first time. Mouth is like a clam shell, she can say what she can say, but she doesn't say a word, she is so angry that she is sent away without a sip of water, but she is just a slave, seeing that she is down and out, she also follows him Showing off her strength, she is already a dead person when she is the eldest sister, so she has no temper. "Wang Xifeng, the fiancée of your eldest cousin Zhu, came with us yesterday. She is not very old. Maybe your eldest aunt will also arrange for her to go to a girls' school. Look around and see what she has that you don't have. , I’ll ask your eldest aunt to ask for it later.”

Wang Xifeng is just Jia Zhu's fiancée. The second room is attached to the first room, but there is nothing left. It can be said that she has nothing to do with the first room. If the Xing family treats her kindly, she will naturally be able to complain to Jia She. , Said that her Xing family was eccentric and treated her decent niece harshly, and saw that her Xing family would not lose face and identity by then.

"Alas," Chen Jin didn't know what her mother was thinking, but she just responded. After asking her mother if she had anything else to say, she happily went back to prepare things. She called the maid who served her and asked her to go to the school. She had to prepare something for studying, the maid told her: "If it is arranged by the wife, the girl doesn't need to prepare anything. I will go to school tomorrow, and I will have everything ready. I can just bring it back after school."

Chen Jin was even more satisfied after hearing this. The aunt was really thoughtful, so she asked the maid about the situation of the students and teachers in the school, "The teachers were all found by Mrs. Fu from Ningguo Mansion at that time. It’s been several years, and I’ve heard a lot that our family wants to take care of them. They are all from the palace, and they teach very well. Those who study are all the girls and sisters of the clan. If they read well, they will be rewarded. It’s good to find an in-law’s family,” the little girl looked envious, “Nowadays, many people are staring at the students of our girls’ school, and they come to hire them every year.” There are many poor Jia family members, and many of them are not as good as Her family is rich, but her surname is Jia, so she can go to a girls' school if she is free, marry a good husband, and live a life of superiority.

"And this?" Chen Jin was very happy to hear that. She was only ten years old and already knew the importance of marriage for a girl. It can be seen that Jia Mei often talked to her about this in the past, so she hurriedly dragged the little girl to talk to Jia. Mei learns the tongue, Jia Mei listened with a face of thought, sent the little girl to find the meeting gift given by Xing Wei yesterday, and then sat down and told Chen Jin: "You should seize this opportunity, marry a good husband in the future, and become famous in the future. Help your brother, you are brother and sister, whoever has the ability will take care of each other in the future, you know it or not."

Naturally, Chen Jin kept nodding, so Jia Mei praised her, "Good boy, I'm not in vain for loving you." She hated that she was born at the wrong time, if her aunt Shi Shi had such a heart as Xing Shi, she would not have fallen to where she is today , at least like those daughters in the clan, they will get such learning opportunities. At any rate, I have the name of a concubine from the Rongguo Mansion, and the family I marry is definitely a hundred times stronger than them. Your dear official son and sister.

Jia Mei looked at her daughter's smiling face, and felt a little happy. No matter what happened to the Shi family, she would no longer be able to dominate the Rongguo Mansion. If she hadn't found out that the Shi family went to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha, she might not have brought her with her. A pair of sons and daughters come back to eat their aunt's scraps. She doesn't know who the aunt Shi is. The son has a talent for reading, let alone whether she can help her. It's no wonder that he will be arranged a place for him if he doesn't bring someone to lure her Studying and progressing.

The little girl brought some things, and Jia Mei picked out some for Chen Jin. Chen Jin hurriedly said, "Save it for my brother to study, I don't need this."

Jia Mei said casually: "Now you are going to go out to study, so naturally you have to dress appropriately. At least, you can't let people laugh at us for being poor and embarrass your uncle and aunt."

Chen Jin listened and said, "Yes." She held it in her hands with peace of mind. It can be said that this is the first jewelry she has ever owned since she grew up. All of them have enough of their expenses in the past year. Keep it well, don't lose it, so as not to feel bad.

Jia Mei pointed to the satin material again and said, "Take these back first, and I'll sew you a good suit overnight, and wear it to school tomorrow, so as not to embarrass your uncle and aunt, you have to remember, You are a serious cousin of the Rongguo Mansion, but you are an outsider who comes here casually."

Jia Mei's words about teaching her children soon spread to Xing Wei, "Is this what she told her?" Xing Wei snorted coldly after listening to the servant's report. Jia Mei seemed really stubborn and confused. She thought that this Rongguo Mansion was her own place, so she could do whatever she wanted.

"Don't pay attention to her, let's see what the two of them will do." Xing Wei was angry in her heart. It was hard for Wang and Jia's mother to develop, and another sister-in-law came to answer her, "What happened to Wang Xifeng?" Compared to this Sister-in-law, Xing Wei is more concerned about Wang Xifeng, after all, this was once "her" daughter-in-law, and in the original book of the Red Chamber, she is also a very lethal person.

"She is very well behaved," said Xi Cui, the current lady in charge. She came here specially to report this to Xing Wei, so naturally she still had something to ask: "Madam, how are their monthly schedules arranged?" This relative She can't be the master of everything, she has to obey the orders of the wife, and they know how to treat the guests with the instructions. The second aunt, Jia Mei, has only been here for two days, and judging from her performance, she is also unconscious. Of course, she must take care of it, and tell the people who work and serve below, so as not to cause any unpleasantness and make the wife upset.

"Follow the example of Han's family for the second aunt, and the young master and the cousin, including Wang Xifeng, will follow the example of the young masters and sisters of the second room." Because of the separation of the family, the second room Jia Zhu has always been treated differently from Jia Lian, Jia Ying, and Jia Ai. The Han family and their two children are the same as them. When the Wang family was in charge, they naturally mentioned their treatment. Of course, they were not part of the Han family's mother and child, but after Jia She and Xing Wei came back, they resumed their treatment. up.

It's not that Xing Wei feels sorry for Yin Zi, it's just that she wants to give them a rule, let them know that the second room has long been separated from the first room, and it's just a guest, so that they can think less about it.Jia Zhu and Baoyu didn't dare to have any objections, and because Xing Wei had promised to marry the children long ago, and she still had half of the shares in the shop, Han would naturally not quarrel with her, so this is the rule.

"Understood, does Madam have any other orders?" Xi Cui calculated in her heart, the Han family's ten taels of silver per month, Jia Zhu and Han's daughters are both studying, and the monthly expenses plus pen and ink are also ten taels. Two, Baoyu and Han’s youngest son, Jia Lang, was still young and didn’t study, so he only got five taels of silver a month. The second aunt and Wang Xifeng, together with Wang Xifeng, cost his wife an extra 40 taels of silver a month, not counting food, drink and clothing. , Holiday rewards, all of these are counted, a person can't beat 300 taels a year, but I don't know if the money is spent, the wife will leave them alone, okay?

"There's nothing else, you go, don't forget to let people stare at them, don't cause us any trouble." Xing Wei didn't bother to argue with them, just arrange people to stare at them, and now Rongguo Mansion's servants are not afraid Buying, their usual reward and punishment system has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so they naturally know what to say and what not to say, and they also know to report what they see, so as to nip hidden dangers in the bud.

Jia Mei soon received a month's permit, although they had only been here for two or three days, and this month was about to end, she was the one who came to attach herself to it, and she didn't have to argue whether the Xing family would give the month's case or not. , but she still asked a question: "When the fourth aunt lived here last year, what example did you give the monthly money?"

Xi Cui personally went to deliver the monthly report to Jia Mei. She was afraid that the little girls would not be able to explain this kind of money-tainted matter, and would bring unnecessary trouble to the wife in turn. After hearing Jia Mei's words, she felt contemptuous, but she also answered Said: "Old Madam Lin insisted on making a monthly bill by herself, and gave another monthly payment to the girl who served them, saying that this is the way to benefit relatives." It is to deepen the relationship between relatives, but because of Jia Min's relationship, Mrs. Lin, Lin Ruhai and others were not happy living here last year. In addition, a salary was paid. When the Rongguo Mansion rewarded the servants as usual on New Year's Day, they also had a reward. Before leaving, they also gave a large gift as a return gift. In fact, everyone knows that this It includes expenses for several months.

Jia Mei was very bored, can she compare with Jia Min?That dowry alone is enough for her to eat for several lifetimes. "Forget it, you go back, remember to thank me for your wife."

Xi Cui saluted and turned to leave. If she really knew how to be grateful, she would not have thanked the wife in person. If she didn't know, she would have thought that the old lady of whose family she was was so honorable, and she wanted the wife to come to see her in person.At the beginning, Mrs. Lin went to visit her when she had nothing to do. She was an elder, and she didn't have such a big air.

Naturally, Xing Wei soon heard Jia Mei's performance again, and said to Xi Cui who was full of complaints: "Forget it, you tell the waiter not to neglect it." Just spend money to raise kittens and puppies Don't be angry with them if you have nothing to do. If you get angry, you are not worth it.

Xi Cui agreed, and said, "The invitation from the wife of the in-laws, when does the wife plan to go?" Xing Wei made an appointment with Mrs. Yu earlier to reopen the shop and let her buy shares. People pick their mouths.

"Tomorrow, you go and post a post for me first." Although they are already in-laws, the Yu family is a family of officials and officials, and their personal relationship has not yet reached the point where she and Jing's can pass by without raising their feet. This post is Indispensable.

Within a few days, Jia Mei got the news that Xing Wei was going to make a lot of money by cooperating with the Yu family's shop. She was dissatisfied that Xing Wei didn't ask her to buy a share, so she went to Jia She angrily, and Jia She dropped a teacup on her; "How much money did you pay for the stock?" She cried angrily and went all the way back to Lixiangyuan. If she had money, she would still rely on Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Amnesty complained to Xing Wei, "Why don't you worry about one or two of these?" The four sisters, the eldest sister is dead, and the younger sister is fine, Jia Min and Jia Mei are both annoying.
