Mrs. Xing reversed the Dream of Red Mansions
Chapter 63
Xing Zhong was rebellious since he was a child, but he covered it up under his honesty and obedience, and no one found out. It was not until his marriage and scientific examinations that he had to wait for Xing Wei to come back, but no one in his family cared much about him, thinking that he was just deeply in love with his elder sister. Winning Kui can be regarded as an explanation to the family, and people gradually forget his disrespect.
With his temperament, he was aggrieved in the Hanlin Academy. He happened to have such an opportunity to escape, but he didn't take the opportunity to let him take a good breath.
But he only cared about himself and forgot that his family was worried about him.
Faced with his wife's questioning, Xing Zhong also panicked, "I'll be fine," he didn't believe it when he said it, and neither losing nor winning didn't mean there were no casualties. A little more mischievous and physically better, but after all, he has never been on the battlefield to kill people. Xing Zhong also regrets it now, but in the end it is a done deal and he can only accept his fate.
"If you die, I'll remarry immediately." Mrs. Chu also knew that it would be difficult to recover now, so she had to cast a curse on Xing Zhong to save his life. "Let your son take someone else's last name."
Xing Zhong's eyes turned red, "How dare you," even a man can't stand his wife changing hands, let alone they are still newly married.
"Why don't I dare? If you dare to abandon us and join the army, I dare to marry you after you die." Mrs. Chu was also spoiled since she was a child, and her eloquence is even better. Now Xing Zhong has no choice but to play tricks .
"Don't worry, I'll be your matchmaker when he dies," Xing Wei was entering the door, just when she heard the previous sentence, seeing that Xing Zhongqi's face was so red that he couldn't speak, it was a sigh of relief for herself.
"Sister, you come to help her too." Xing Zhong concealed Xing Wei and went to sign up. He did not dare to go to Rongguo Mansion because he was afraid that Xing Wei would scold him. But there is nowhere to post it.
"Don't call me sister," Xing Wei pushed him away, and pulled Chu Shi to reassure her: "Don't worry, I will definitely find you a man better than him, at least, I will never marry you when you are pregnant." It's time to leave you mother and son and go on a long journey."
"I," Xing Zhong turned pale, he was indeed offended, this time he not only offended his wife, but even his own sister.
He looked at Jia She who was circling outside, and hurried over to salute: "Brother-in-law, please persuade my sister," Jia She blew on his beard and stared at him, "I can't control you, just go and persuade you That nephew, at what age do you want to join the army?"
"Who? Jia Ying wants to be a soldier?" Xing Zhong was dumbfounded. No wonder his sister was so angry. It turned out that Jia Ying was here to add to the chaos. "See if I don't teach him a lesson."
Jia She nodded, "You should teach me a good lesson, so that I don't turn around and Jia Ying is sneaking away. I can't find anyone." , Knowing that Jia Ying listens to this little uncle the most, let him be a villain.
"Okay," Xing Zhong punched Jia She, and turned to look for Jia Ying, this brat, he has nothing to do to join in the fun, he didn't wipe himself off, and you're making trouble again.
Jia Ying also counted on his little uncle to intercede for him, but who knew that before he could open his ears, he would suffer, "Ah, ah, it hurts, you say something first, why are you pulling my ears?" It's not that much politeness and etiquette, but you can't just pull people's ears when you come up, Jia Ying jumped up aggrieved.
"It deserves it," Xing Zhong let go of Jia Ying's ears, regretted seeing the red and overcooked Xiami, and helped him blow and knead, and slapped him angrily, "Alas," Jia Ying was in pain just listening With a cry, he said: "I have been trained, why are you making trouble, what kind of army did you join at a young age."
The previous enthusiasm and evil boiling, under the warm offensive of the family, has now become dull and regretful, but this year the emperor is extra strict, once the name is registered, no one can regret it, otherwise the light one will be fined with money, and the heavy one will lose fame. His family is not short of money, but they can't afford the reputation of being greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Don't think that uncle went to be very beautiful, in fact, it is a battlefield, there are dead people everywhere, blood flows like rivers, and you can only escape with people desperately. You are young, you can't do anything when you go there, but you will cause trouble to death. You must not let it go." You 'mother cried to death." Xing Zhongyue said more and more regret, he left his wife and children to join the army, in case of never going back, how can it be reassuring.
"Sister, I..." He ran to apologize to Xing Wei, but when he saw Xing Wei's red eyes, he couldn't speak. It deserves it, after all, it broke the heart of a loved one.
"Forget it, forget it," cried and scolded and scolded, Xing Wei's saddest time has passed, she took her brother and sister Chu's hand to persuade Xing Zhong, "In the future, think twice before acting, you are also a man It's my father's, so I can't be so reckless anymore."
He also persuaded Mrs. Chu, "Since it has been settled, inquire carefully, but you have to bring something to salute," comforting her, "Don't worry, there are veterans who have gone to the battlefield in Rongguo Mansion, and I have already sent them here. You have to save his life too."
He also reprimanded Xing Zhong: "You also follow them to learn more boxing and kicking. Don't think that I don't know your three punches and two kicks. If you go to the battlefield, you will die." Although Xing Wei didn't know what happened at that time, but later I also heard that he was fighting fiercely with others in the academy.
This is sharpening the gun in front of the battle, not asking for good or bad, but just asking for life.
Xing Zhong laughed a few times happily, knowing that it was his eldest sister who hurt him and was reluctant to let him lose his life.
Xing Zhong went to the big camp for training, and Xing Wei was busy helping him prepare his luggage, saying that he asked Chu to prepare it, but it was just a distraction for her. How could she be too much trouble for a pregnant woman.
Cooked noodles, fried rice, dried beef, pills for disease prevention and life-saving, waterproof and breathable raccoon fur clothes, as long as she can think of it, she is prepared, and she finds veterans and asks carefully. There is nothing missing, so I let go of half of my heart.
Seeing Xing Zhong again at the time of parting, he was so dark and thin and dry, which made people feel distressed, but he was relieved in the end. Although the time was short, he had trained better than going directly to the battlefield.Saluted to the veteran, and handed him a booklet: "This is something I wrote for you. I have time to read it on the way. It may be useful." Arrows, fast food recipes, life-saving wild vegetables, survival in the wilderness, all kinds of mess, as long as it is something related to war that can be thought of, she wrote it all without thinking, and read it if you have nothing to do Let him know that his sister misses him, and it is best to save his life and come back to be scolded and seek training.
After seeing off Xing Zhong and Xing Wei, they also lost energy. It was like losing half of their soul every day. They couldn't sleep well. They went to see the imperial doctor, but there was nothing wrong with it. Jia She was so distressed that he decided to wait for Xing. Zhong came back, calculated the losses with him carefully, and then used Xing Wei's current situation to teach Jia Ying, "See, if your uncle goes to participate, your mother will lose half of her life. If you dare to go, think about you." 'What does your mother look like?' It's not scaremongering, Jia She has never seen Xing Wei in such a distraught state for so many years, to be honest, jealous stomach sour, but Xing Wei was losing his soul, he didn't care about her mean.
The children also knew that Xing Wei was unhappy, so they would tease her in front of her when they had time to cheer her up. When Xing Wei saw Daiyu, she suddenly remembered something, "Yu'er, Auntie, I'm not in a good mood recently. , can you help my aunt with housekeeping?"
"Auntie, that's not acceptable." Lin Daiyu waved her hands after hearing this. How old is she and the Rongguo Mansion is so big, how do you manage it?
"Okay, why not?" Now that Xing Wei has made a decision, she can't tolerate fairies procrastinating. This is an excellent opportunity to be lazy and test people. Anyway, the rules of the Rongguo Mansion have always been established, so I'm not afraid that a child like her will mess up the rules. , but let her take care of it on the surface, and let her improve, and then told her daughter Jia Ai, "You also learn from your cousin and help your mother take care of the house."
Jia Ai was not that humble, she was told by Jia She to help her mother solve problems, she thought it was right to obey her mother's orders, so she patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry, mother, just leave it to us."
Daiyu tugged Jia Ai anxiously, this little girl doesn't know how deep she is, do you know what you promised?
Jia Ai didn't care about her, and she was proudly coming to show her merits to Jia Lian, "Second brother, I can help mother with things now."
"Okay, Ai'er is really sensible." After Jia Lian praised Jia Ai, he begged his cousin Daiyu, "Trouble my cousin for working hard, and take care of my mother for a few days." He also knew the kindness of his stepmother. It's too high-minded, out of touch with human fireworks, that's not okay.
Well, my cousins agreed, so Daiyu had no choice but to rush the ducks to the shelves and go to the housekeeper.
I went to ask for leave on purpose in school, and I helped my aunt with the housekeeping at home in the morning. After listening to the mother-in-law's reply, it was more interesting than what the masters in the school said. I lost a teacup for tea and rice. I don't know if it was lost or someone dropped it. I didn't pay the bill, and now I want to punish but I can't find anyone.I don't know who didn't keep an eye on the door in the kitchen. The kitten went in and ate the fish. Who should make up for the loss?There is also the laundry room. The concierge was confused yesterday. The guests did not ask clearly when they came to the door. The visitor left the gift and the person left. Whether the gift was accepted or kept and why, we had to find out.
Jia Ai's eyes sparkled when she heard this, "I'm going to catch a cat." Daiyu waved her hand, "It's just a lost cup, just take some money from me and make it up."
Chen Momo pressed the person who answered, she was specially sent by Xing Wei to help Daiyu and Jia Ai steer the helm, she only whispered in Daiyu's ear: "That set of teacups are made from the master's favorite tribute kiln. Porcelain lotus double fish play bead lotus flower cup, a set of 300 taels, there is no price in the market, if you lose one set, you will be charged, the girl better check it, maybe someone just saw it and liked it, and it’s easy to mullet Well, although our family won't hit someone with a board for a set of cups, we can't tolerate people who deliberately make trouble."
He also persuaded Jia Ai: "Young lady is now the housekeeper. What is it like to take someone to catch cats? Tell the third young master that he won't help the young lady catch more cats. Why bother to catch them yourself? I don't know if it's wrong or not. Long, will it bite people?"
Daiyu felt ashamed, she didn't have enough cups for a couple of months, she remembered what the masters taught in the school, she felt a little depressed, and asked, "What if I really can't find this teacup?"
"Then we can only find a replacement for the master that he likes." Nanny Chen replied.
Thinking back yesterday when my uncle came back and heard that she was going to help the housekeeper, he told her, "Daiyu puts more effort into letting your aunt have a good rest. Thank you, uncle." Daiyu's heart tightened, uncle and aunt She trusted her like this, but she wanted to get confused and hide it from others.
Asking about other things, most of them are trivial, after asking Nanny Chen for advice, Daiyu managed to deal with today's affairs, leaving behind the steward of the waiter and the kitchen staff, Daiyu concluded; " The kitchen door was left open, causing the cat to go in and eat the fish. This is due to the dereliction of duty of your kitchen staff. Since no one will admit it, then check how much you lost. Everyone will share it and let everyone learn a lesson. If you think you don’t do your own business, you don’t have to close the door.” The kitchen manager heard that he didn’t mean it unfairly, indeed, the people below are now arrogant, so it’s time to teach them a lesson.
Asking the waiter, "Who was the last person to see that cup yesterday?"
"It was Lian'er who went to collect the cups. She said that she handed it over to Xing'er, who was in charge of cleaning and storing," the waiter hurriedly replied. Ask the top to come down with an idea.
"What did Xing'er say?" Daiyu asked, tilting her head.
"She said she put the cup away after washing it, and there was no shortage at that time."
"Then who still has the key to the cabinet?"
"Except for Xing'er, I have one here, and there is another one at the general storehouse, so I don't use it easily."
"Myolie's keys are all here, but yours is gone."
"The servant's key hasn't left her body. She is not sure about Xing'er's key, because she did take it off in the shower yesterday."
"How many people can get access to that key?"
"It's just Tao'er from the same dormitory, and it's just Tao'er, another girl serving tea and water."
"Tao'er and Xing'er usually have a good relationship."
"Well, I heard that they had occasional quarrels."
"That's it, find an errand for Tao'er, dismiss her, and send someone else to search her things, don't let go of the hiding places she can touch, she may not put them in her own room. "
The teachers in these schools all have a little bit of tricks in the back house. When the teachers talked about it, they listened with great interest. They never thought that there were so many intrigues in the seemingly peaceful back house.
In the afternoon, when Daiyu and Jia Ai came back from school, they said they had found the teacup. Sure enough, Taoer was jealous of Xinger, stole Xinger's key, and hid a cup, waiting to see her bad luck. "Such a person can be punished freely and according to the rules, but it's not the girl's turn to worry about it," Nanny Chen couldn't help persuading Daiyu when she saw the melancholy on Daiyu's face. If she dared to reach out and do bad things, she should have thought of today's ending.
"No, I'm not thinking about this." Daiyu is not a savior, she has sympathy for everyone, and she has to take responsibility as soon as she does it, "I'll talk to my aunt for a while."
"Auntie," Daiyu greeted Xing Wei first, and Xing Wei smiled and waved her to come to her side: "I've heard it all, you've done a good job." Doing things well and rationally is a miracle on earth.
"I know it's my aunt who tested me, but she just gave me some trivial things," Daiyu Qingling is smart, why didn't she know that it was her aunt who specially tested her. At home, my grandmother often said that my eldest aunt was so good that she gave me a chance Learn more from her, and often say that I am too noble, and I am afraid that I will not be able to take on the role of housekeeper in the future.
Daiyu knew in her heart that she was sent to the Rongguo Mansion because her grandmother wanted to promote her studies. In fact, she knew that she just didn't want to provoke these sundries. But, without seeing her aunt's loving eyes, she unconsciously thought Go and reassure her.
"It's good that you know," holding Daiyu in her arms, being able to hug the fairy at close range is indeed a kind of blessing. Xing Wei feels at ease, and has less worry and miss for Xing Zhong. Indeed, who can rest assured Let the young children deal with these things. Daiyu knew very well that she couldn't handle the concierge's affairs, so she didn't open her mouth to come up with random ideas. She was a very measured person.
Daiyu also felt weird during the rubbing and rubbing. For some reason, she felt closer to her aunt than to her own mother, Jia Min. Obviously, her mother is a relative, and her aunt is only a relative. Relatives are still too strong to express their unclear feelings.
"I have a question to ask my aunt." Daiyu hesitated for a while. She didn't want to see her relatives make mistakes and be unlucky, so she held back a question and thought about it for a long time before she came to ask.
Xing Wei smiled and tapped Daiyu's little nose: "You want to ask about the set of teacups worth 300 taels?" Xing Wei was very happy that Daiyu would come to talk about this, and she was more worried than her own children Xin, Jia Lian, Jia Ying, and Jia Ai have used these valuables as a matter of course since they were young, and they never worry about whether there is a problem with their origin.
Daiyu was a little embarrassed, lowered her head and said softly: "I heard from the master in the school that the salary of my father and uncle is only a few hundred taels of silver a year, not to mention other expenses, this tea set alone costs a lot. I can’t afford to buy a few sets, not to mention that there are hundreds of taels of treasure everywhere in our house, so I was worried, so I came here to ask.”
"You have a heart," Xing Wei hugged Daiyu and kissed her. It takes such a delicate heart to think of such a question: "Don't worry, not only your uncle and father, but all the officials and butchers I don’t rely on salaries to support my family. The school talks about it just to let you know the laws of our country.” At the beginning, in order to keep the girls of the clan from touching those things that violated laws and disciplines, they specially set up law enforcement officers. Naturally, to talk about these official positions, ranks, and salaries, others would just listen to it and let it go, but Daiyu remembered it in her heart.
Seeing that Daiyu's eyes were wide open and she was thirsty for knowledge, Xing Wei told her in detail; "It is said that an official should not compete with the people for profit, but look, the shops on the street are well-made, the one Without some background, ordinary people dare not get involved in big business at all, for fear of being bullied and seized." Then he nodded Daiyu's forehead, "Your grandmother, mother, and some dowry under the name of your aunt, accumulated by your ancestors through the generations Property, shop, Zhuangzi, these are the sources of support for our family of officials."
It is said in the original book that Daiyu used all the scraps and papers from the Rongguo Mansion. In fact, only those foolish people in the Rongguo Mansion are willing to spread the word. If this word is known to others, they must first ask, "Your Rongguo Mansion is married. Doesn’t the daughter give a dowry? Could it be that Jia Min’s ten-mile red makeup was a lie? Otherwise, not to mention the inheritance of the five generations of the Lin family and the success of the dowry of the mistresses of the past, Jia Min’s dowry alone is enough for Lin Daiyu’s life I can't eat enough."
However, these people don’t even know that they slapped themselves, and this Lin Daiyu has no one to guide her. Instead, she still hates these careers and economics. Isn’t it what adults expect to describe what a child looks like?She is bitter, mean and petty, so maybe her relatives forced her to do so.
"Not only these, in addition to the salary, there are Lumi, Chai Tan, etc. These are official salaries, and there is also filial piety in private. This is a rule, not a bribe or something illegal, and we don't want it," Xing Wei cracked her fingers and counted for her: "How many officials do you want to say have a clean sleeve? Let me tell you, no. If you can't bring a lot of food, rice, oil and salt to his family to support his family, who has nothing to do? You can buy land with money and become a rich man.”
"There are indeed those high-minded and self-proclaimed civil servants who refuse to take the routine filial piety, and the daughter-in-law at home also has less dowry to subsidize. It is very difficult to live. Such people dare not even buy slaves, because they are afraid that they will not be able to pay. Eat and drink, can't afford clothes, and in order to make some money to supplement the family, sell the unfinished lumi to the shops at a discount, earning the difference between the prices." Xing Wei smiled, "It's just that such people are really a minority, they are too noble If you don't fit in, you don't need to be humiliated by others, and sooner or later you won't be able to live on yourself."
Looking at Daiyu's disapproving gaze, Xing Wei counted for her: "People eat whole grains, there are people who don't get sick, how much money does a medicine cost, and his family doesn't even have any surplus food. If someone in the family gets sick, they will die." Not to mention himself and his daughter-in-law, as well as the elderly and children, who can guarantee that he will not get sick for the rest of his life, and if he is sick, should he wait to die?" Xing Wei nodded, "In fact, this kind of person is the most unacceptable. name, the whole family will suffer with him.”
"I'm not in favor of official corruption, it's just that a gentleman takes money and seeks it in a proper way. We don't steal, and we don't rob. The filial piety from the bottom is not forced, but the shops below and the local gentry. Live with peace of mind, the shop is going well, buy peace of mind, he buys his peace of mind, and your life goes smoothly, why not do it? As an official, you only need to make decisions for the people, even if you are in the same boat?"
"That's right, as long as an official is in charge of the people, don't you worry about colluding with others?" Xing Wei's voice fell, and Jia Amnesty came in loudly, followed by Jia Lian, Jia Ying and Lin Jun. I don't know these few After listening outside for a long time, just looking at their thoughtful faces, I must not only hear the last few sentences.
Xing Wei also didn't get up to greet Jia She, the couple had already passed the stage of being polite and alienated, she greeted Jia She with a smile: "I'm back," and nodded to the children, Jia She said "yes" With a promise, Daiyu raised her hand to salute Xing Wei, sat down, sat down and watched her two sons and cheap nephew salute Xing Wei, and said: "I look down on those so-called upright officials the most. You are so clean that you can't even support your family." still have the face to be called a man in vain; there are even more irritating ones, who only rely on women for support, and have three wives and four concubines to frighten others, and they are full of truth, saying that women are inferior to men." Jia She Speaking of this, I am also a little ashamed. Speaking of it, not only did he have the idea of embezzling his wife's natal family's "property" at the beginning, but also the later title. layer?
Jia Amnesty was upset about Xing Wei's downturn these days. It was rare to see her happy today, and he couldn't help but feel emotional. Thinking of Xing Zhong, thinking of himself being in danger, thinking of Jia who was determined to join the army Ying, he gave Jia Ying a hard look. "You have to remember that when people live in this world, they should take care of themselves and their families first, and then think about doing other things. If your life is gone, why talk about other things?"
Xing Wei taught Fairy a lesson today, she seemed to have listened to it, and was happy, showing off in front of her sons, and said with emotion, "People don't live for themselves, they have to adapt to this society, you are noble Yes, but you will be sad if you are out of the group, and you can't escape the worldly reputation, so why just indulge in the so-called books to find the place of the gods, because we are the children of mortals and cannot leave this dirty place."
"Finally feeling better today?" After the children had dispersed, Jia Amnesty went up to hug Xing Wei and teased her.
"Hmm", how can it not be exciting to be a teacher in front of the fairy, Xing Wei exclaimed happily: "Your niece is simply a child prodigy, but it is a pity that she is not a man, and there is one less miracle in this world. "
Regardless of whether it is in the original book or in this life, if Daiyu is a man who can enter the court and become an official, there will definitely be a different change. In the original book, she worries and tears for a few fallen flowers. Apart from lamenting her own life experience, isn't it a worry for the people?This kind of person can't see loneliness the most, and can't do false things. As long as she is given a platform, isn't she afraid that she will devote herself to the country and the people?
"Didn't you mean yourself?" Jia She chuckled a few times, "Don't say you regret having a woman. If you were a man, where would I find you? How could I give birth to Jia Ying?"
"Mouth full of nonsense." Xing Wei was so ashamed that she hit Jia She a few times, remembering the corrupt texts she read in her previous life, the two men overlapped and intertwined, shivering tremblingly: If I were a man, what could I do if I traveled to the Red Chamber? whats the matter?Help the king to run the country, serve the people, expand the territory, and leave a name for hundreds of generations?
Marry a loving wife, or a house full of concubines to enjoy time travel benefits?Even overthrow the government and become emperor?Or do you like a man and help him achieve his ambitions?Forget it, the back house is still clean!As the head wife of her Rongguo Mansion, she is at ease. In her past and present lives, she has no interest in ruling others. She just wants to have children and live a small life with a man who can accompany her all her life. She can feel at ease until she grows old.
Jia She laughed happily. His wife was unhappy, so he didn't dare to act presumptuously. Today was finally sunny and cloudy, and he could ask for his own welfare to have sex.
The next day Xing Wei took over the family affairs again, but she didn't let Daiyu and Jia Ai go to school. No matter how good the school is, there are practical lessons learned there, so she took the two of them with her and let them watch themselves. How to deal with it, although Daiyu and Jia Ai are younger, but with their aunt and mother by their side, these two children are listening to Xing Wei quietly, and they are very attentive.
In the afternoon, I sent the two children to school again. Since the two children had accumulated some questions in the morning, they inevitably asked the teacher to deepen their understanding. In this way, what they learned every day was explained, and what they saw became more and more profound, which is beyond the comparison of ordinary students. .
Jia Mei was angry when she heard that Xing Wei was biased. Her daughter and Daiyu were only young, so they learned how to be housekeepers. Chen Jin is already 11 years old, and she can marry her husband's family, but she still doesn't know how to manage the house. As a real aunt , I don't know how to take her with me.
Jia Mei had eaten Xing Wei's robbing, and she didn't dare to find Xing Wei to be unlucky, so she encouraged her daughter to go to Xing Wei, so she would not beat her niece out.
So the next day Xing Wei was waiting for her mother-in-law to come to Yingmao, when she saw Chen Jin waddling into the yard, she frowned, and after she finished saluting, she asked, "Why didn't you go to school today?"
"Mother said let me learn housekeeping from my aunt," Chen Jin replied happily, without seeing the dissatisfaction on Xing Wei's face at all.
"Well, sit down when you come." The servant next to him hurriedly found a chair and put it aside. Seeing her sitting outside Daiyu and Jia Ai, Chen Jin felt a little dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say it, he could only feel wronged sat on the side.It was the first time she heard Xing Wei's stewardship, and she was inevitably curious, but just after listening for a while, she saw her aunt drop a cup, which scared her so much that she shivered. Listen to my aunt's advice. "Why, seeing that I'm soft-hearted now, everyone wanted to come to see if the rules of the Rongguo Mansion were just a display. A few days ago, I heard that my cousin was acting as the council member for me, so I came out to steal teacups and asked someone to frame me. Now There is something wrong with this, but the skin is itchy, waiting to be punished?"
Chen Jin was terrified, but also excited that she would be able to show off her power like her aunt in the future, but unexpectedly, she heard her aunt pass the message that she was going to beat someone here in class, which made her turn pale with fright.Xing Wei glanced at Chen Jin, looked at Daiyu and Jia Ai, Jia Ai's eyes were shining, she seemed to want to hit someone herself, Daiyu couldn't bear it, but she also pretended to be calm.
This is the difference. Although they wanted to give Chen Ming a blow by punishing others, it was the first time they had seen such a scene. Daiyu and Jia Ai were still a few years younger, and their reactions were the attitude of the mistresses. For someone like Chen Jin, it would be embarrassing to lift him up by force.
"Forget it, my sister and my cousins are here, wait until the afternoon for the torture," Xing Wei waved to let people go down, Jia Ai was full of disappointment and pouted to express dissatisfaction; Daiyu looked relieved and grateful He glanced at Xing Wei; Chen Jin breathed a sigh of relief, but looked at the person dragged out with his neck hooked, with regret on his face.This is the same as her mother, who is afraid of trouble and fears that the world will not be chaotic.
The next day, Chen Jin came early, and without waiting for the servant to speak, she sat on the chair where Daiyu sat yesterday and waited for Xing Wei and the others to come over. They were all cousins, and how old was she? Sit down with her?It can be said that yesterday was first come, first served, so don't take advantage of it today.
Xing Wei led Daiyu and Jia Ai in, seeing this scene, she felt even more displeased, she didn't say anything, let Daiyu sit in Jia Ai's chair, and hugged Jia Ai in her arms, Chen Jin felt uncomfortable , I even forgot to salute Xing Wei.
The left hand is respected, Jia Ai is young, but she is the master and always sits on Xing Wei's left, so Daiyu is naturally on the right.Now Chen Jin occupies the seat on the right, and Daiyu is on the left, still nobler than her, but she doesn't have the guts to ask Daiyu to get up and give her a seat, even if the stool is empty, she doesn't dare to sit easily without her aunt speaking .
Chen Jinzheng was secretly depressed, and saw a bunch of little girls coming, a beautifully dressed woman came to her aunt, different from the people who used to hold her breath in front of her aunt, she smiled and saluted her aunt: " How is Mrs. Hou? I am very polite." It turned out to be someone from outside, but I don't know who it is?He is neither a guest nor a servant, but he can easily enter the inner courtyard, and come to see the mistress so casually?
Xing Wei nodded and said: "It's okay, Aunt Chen is also good." This Chen family is a matchmaker, and the servants bought outside the Rongguo Mansion are all from her. Unknown people sneaked in, just because of this, Xing Wei can still take care of her business.
"Okay, okay, thanks to you, I am living a good life now." The old servants of the Rongguo Mansion are not for life now, let alone generations of servants. As long as there is a chance, Xing Wei will let them go out and be independent Or recommend a more promising place. In this way, there must be fresh blood to supplement, and it is inevitable to take care of Mrs. Chen a few times. Mrs. Chen has made money, and those who come and go are also taken care of by the Rongguo Mansion. The business is more natural than before. It's much easier to do. Of course, I am grateful to Xing Wei, and I will not fool her more and more. This is a virtuous circle, but it also requires people to manage it carefully.
"What kind of people did you bring today, but I told you, girls who are seven or eight years old?" Xing Wei wanted to add a few people to Jia Ai's side, one is to play with them, and the other is to train the married couple early The nanny in charge, not to mention it's too early, as a mother, I'm afraid that if I don't arrange well, it will make my daughter suffer in the future, so I think about everything early.
Daiyu was just in time for the meeting, so it's not easy to leave her behind, the key is that Mrs. Lin is very interesting in her work, and she only gave them an old woman and a little girl who only combed her hair. There are many wives, but it is not easy to specially assign them to Daiyu for frequent use. She is not short of the money, so she might as well buy a few for Daiyu. In the future, Lin Fu and Daiyu will be separated.
Xing Wei glanced at Chen Jin, since she was here, she was not bad, and buying two more maids would save two lives.
She naturally knew that this Mrs. Chen was not only her own customer, but she also wanted to send the girl she couldn't buy to other places. In the end, she picked out the ones that no one wanted, and she wouldn't go back to their parents' house. A place where meat and vegetables are not taboo will make some money anyway. It’s not that Xing Wei has no love. The family has no shortage of money and should buy them all back to save a few lives. It’s just that kindness can’t be exhausted. If the world doesn’t change, people It is cheaper than livestock, and she can't buy it all, so she can't see it.
"Of course it is. I was also afraid of missing my wife's errand. I picked them for more than a month, taught them some rules, and got together a few more, so I dared to bring them over, so that the sisters could have a good time." room for choice."
"Well," the matchmaker who has a client will usually teach the little girls some things first, in order to sell them at a better price. Xing Wei doesn't care, as long as it is not the eyeliner arranged by others.She specially bought this seven or eight-year-old girl back for her daughter, in order to get along with her since she was a child, and have a deep relationship with her, and she will think about her daughter in the future. The second is that these girls are not qualitative, even if it is someone else's eyeliner, it is easy to break it. For her own use, of course she still values the former, and by the way, there is an extra life-saving one.
Except in troubled times and catastrophic years, the girls sold by their families are generally poor and cannot afford to support them, or there are partial parents who dislike their daughters. middle.
"There is no problem with the identity contract. I don't want people of unknown origin here?" Xing Wei confirmed again. Every time I come, this is a routine questioning. I am afraid that there will be disputes in the future. In pursuit of it, she also has some responsibilities.
"This." In the past, Mrs. Chen would have answered swiftly, no problem, but today she hesitated, looked back at the little girl outside, came up and said softly to Xing Wei: "To tell you the truth, Mrs. Hou, today there is a little girl who gave the old man money. , asked the old man to bring her to Rongguo Mansion, saying that he wanted to see Mrs. Hou."
With his temperament, he was aggrieved in the Hanlin Academy. He happened to have such an opportunity to escape, but he didn't take the opportunity to let him take a good breath.
But he only cared about himself and forgot that his family was worried about him.
Faced with his wife's questioning, Xing Zhong also panicked, "I'll be fine," he didn't believe it when he said it, and neither losing nor winning didn't mean there were no casualties. A little more mischievous and physically better, but after all, he has never been on the battlefield to kill people. Xing Zhong also regrets it now, but in the end it is a done deal and he can only accept his fate.
"If you die, I'll remarry immediately." Mrs. Chu also knew that it would be difficult to recover now, so she had to cast a curse on Xing Zhong to save his life. "Let your son take someone else's last name."
Xing Zhong's eyes turned red, "How dare you," even a man can't stand his wife changing hands, let alone they are still newly married.
"Why don't I dare? If you dare to abandon us and join the army, I dare to marry you after you die." Mrs. Chu was also spoiled since she was a child, and her eloquence is even better. Now Xing Zhong has no choice but to play tricks .
"Don't worry, I'll be your matchmaker when he dies," Xing Wei was entering the door, just when she heard the previous sentence, seeing that Xing Zhongqi's face was so red that he couldn't speak, it was a sigh of relief for herself.
"Sister, you come to help her too." Xing Zhong concealed Xing Wei and went to sign up. He did not dare to go to Rongguo Mansion because he was afraid that Xing Wei would scold him. But there is nowhere to post it.
"Don't call me sister," Xing Wei pushed him away, and pulled Chu Shi to reassure her: "Don't worry, I will definitely find you a man better than him, at least, I will never marry you when you are pregnant." It's time to leave you mother and son and go on a long journey."
"I," Xing Zhong turned pale, he was indeed offended, this time he not only offended his wife, but even his own sister.
He looked at Jia She who was circling outside, and hurried over to salute: "Brother-in-law, please persuade my sister," Jia She blew on his beard and stared at him, "I can't control you, just go and persuade you That nephew, at what age do you want to join the army?"
"Who? Jia Ying wants to be a soldier?" Xing Zhong was dumbfounded. No wonder his sister was so angry. It turned out that Jia Ying was here to add to the chaos. "See if I don't teach him a lesson."
Jia She nodded, "You should teach me a good lesson, so that I don't turn around and Jia Ying is sneaking away. I can't find anyone." , Knowing that Jia Ying listens to this little uncle the most, let him be a villain.
"Okay," Xing Zhong punched Jia She, and turned to look for Jia Ying, this brat, he has nothing to do to join in the fun, he didn't wipe himself off, and you're making trouble again.
Jia Ying also counted on his little uncle to intercede for him, but who knew that before he could open his ears, he would suffer, "Ah, ah, it hurts, you say something first, why are you pulling my ears?" It's not that much politeness and etiquette, but you can't just pull people's ears when you come up, Jia Ying jumped up aggrieved.
"It deserves it," Xing Zhong let go of Jia Ying's ears, regretted seeing the red and overcooked Xiami, and helped him blow and knead, and slapped him angrily, "Alas," Jia Ying was in pain just listening With a cry, he said: "I have been trained, why are you making trouble, what kind of army did you join at a young age."
The previous enthusiasm and evil boiling, under the warm offensive of the family, has now become dull and regretful, but this year the emperor is extra strict, once the name is registered, no one can regret it, otherwise the light one will be fined with money, and the heavy one will lose fame. His family is not short of money, but they can't afford the reputation of being greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Don't think that uncle went to be very beautiful, in fact, it is a battlefield, there are dead people everywhere, blood flows like rivers, and you can only escape with people desperately. You are young, you can't do anything when you go there, but you will cause trouble to death. You must not let it go." You 'mother cried to death." Xing Zhongyue said more and more regret, he left his wife and children to join the army, in case of never going back, how can it be reassuring.
"Sister, I..." He ran to apologize to Xing Wei, but when he saw Xing Wei's red eyes, he couldn't speak. It deserves it, after all, it broke the heart of a loved one.
"Forget it, forget it," cried and scolded and scolded, Xing Wei's saddest time has passed, she took her brother and sister Chu's hand to persuade Xing Zhong, "In the future, think twice before acting, you are also a man It's my father's, so I can't be so reckless anymore."
He also persuaded Mrs. Chu, "Since it has been settled, inquire carefully, but you have to bring something to salute," comforting her, "Don't worry, there are veterans who have gone to the battlefield in Rongguo Mansion, and I have already sent them here. You have to save his life too."
He also reprimanded Xing Zhong: "You also follow them to learn more boxing and kicking. Don't think that I don't know your three punches and two kicks. If you go to the battlefield, you will die." Although Xing Wei didn't know what happened at that time, but later I also heard that he was fighting fiercely with others in the academy.
This is sharpening the gun in front of the battle, not asking for good or bad, but just asking for life.
Xing Zhong laughed a few times happily, knowing that it was his eldest sister who hurt him and was reluctant to let him lose his life.
Xing Zhong went to the big camp for training, and Xing Wei was busy helping him prepare his luggage, saying that he asked Chu to prepare it, but it was just a distraction for her. How could she be too much trouble for a pregnant woman.
Cooked noodles, fried rice, dried beef, pills for disease prevention and life-saving, waterproof and breathable raccoon fur clothes, as long as she can think of it, she is prepared, and she finds veterans and asks carefully. There is nothing missing, so I let go of half of my heart.
Seeing Xing Zhong again at the time of parting, he was so dark and thin and dry, which made people feel distressed, but he was relieved in the end. Although the time was short, he had trained better than going directly to the battlefield.Saluted to the veteran, and handed him a booklet: "This is something I wrote for you. I have time to read it on the way. It may be useful." Arrows, fast food recipes, life-saving wild vegetables, survival in the wilderness, all kinds of mess, as long as it is something related to war that can be thought of, she wrote it all without thinking, and read it if you have nothing to do Let him know that his sister misses him, and it is best to save his life and come back to be scolded and seek training.
After seeing off Xing Zhong and Xing Wei, they also lost energy. It was like losing half of their soul every day. They couldn't sleep well. They went to see the imperial doctor, but there was nothing wrong with it. Jia She was so distressed that he decided to wait for Xing. Zhong came back, calculated the losses with him carefully, and then used Xing Wei's current situation to teach Jia Ying, "See, if your uncle goes to participate, your mother will lose half of her life. If you dare to go, think about you." 'What does your mother look like?' It's not scaremongering, Jia She has never seen Xing Wei in such a distraught state for so many years, to be honest, jealous stomach sour, but Xing Wei was losing his soul, he didn't care about her mean.
The children also knew that Xing Wei was unhappy, so they would tease her in front of her when they had time to cheer her up. When Xing Wei saw Daiyu, she suddenly remembered something, "Yu'er, Auntie, I'm not in a good mood recently. , can you help my aunt with housekeeping?"
"Auntie, that's not acceptable." Lin Daiyu waved her hands after hearing this. How old is she and the Rongguo Mansion is so big, how do you manage it?
"Okay, why not?" Now that Xing Wei has made a decision, she can't tolerate fairies procrastinating. This is an excellent opportunity to be lazy and test people. Anyway, the rules of the Rongguo Mansion have always been established, so I'm not afraid that a child like her will mess up the rules. , but let her take care of it on the surface, and let her improve, and then told her daughter Jia Ai, "You also learn from your cousin and help your mother take care of the house."
Jia Ai was not that humble, she was told by Jia She to help her mother solve problems, she thought it was right to obey her mother's orders, so she patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry, mother, just leave it to us."
Daiyu tugged Jia Ai anxiously, this little girl doesn't know how deep she is, do you know what you promised?
Jia Ai didn't care about her, and she was proudly coming to show her merits to Jia Lian, "Second brother, I can help mother with things now."
"Okay, Ai'er is really sensible." After Jia Lian praised Jia Ai, he begged his cousin Daiyu, "Trouble my cousin for working hard, and take care of my mother for a few days." He also knew the kindness of his stepmother. It's too high-minded, out of touch with human fireworks, that's not okay.
Well, my cousins agreed, so Daiyu had no choice but to rush the ducks to the shelves and go to the housekeeper.
I went to ask for leave on purpose in school, and I helped my aunt with the housekeeping at home in the morning. After listening to the mother-in-law's reply, it was more interesting than what the masters in the school said. I lost a teacup for tea and rice. I don't know if it was lost or someone dropped it. I didn't pay the bill, and now I want to punish but I can't find anyone.I don't know who didn't keep an eye on the door in the kitchen. The kitten went in and ate the fish. Who should make up for the loss?There is also the laundry room. The concierge was confused yesterday. The guests did not ask clearly when they came to the door. The visitor left the gift and the person left. Whether the gift was accepted or kept and why, we had to find out.
Jia Ai's eyes sparkled when she heard this, "I'm going to catch a cat." Daiyu waved her hand, "It's just a lost cup, just take some money from me and make it up."
Chen Momo pressed the person who answered, she was specially sent by Xing Wei to help Daiyu and Jia Ai steer the helm, she only whispered in Daiyu's ear: "That set of teacups are made from the master's favorite tribute kiln. Porcelain lotus double fish play bead lotus flower cup, a set of 300 taels, there is no price in the market, if you lose one set, you will be charged, the girl better check it, maybe someone just saw it and liked it, and it’s easy to mullet Well, although our family won't hit someone with a board for a set of cups, we can't tolerate people who deliberately make trouble."
He also persuaded Jia Ai: "Young lady is now the housekeeper. What is it like to take someone to catch cats? Tell the third young master that he won't help the young lady catch more cats. Why bother to catch them yourself? I don't know if it's wrong or not. Long, will it bite people?"
Daiyu felt ashamed, she didn't have enough cups for a couple of months, she remembered what the masters taught in the school, she felt a little depressed, and asked, "What if I really can't find this teacup?"
"Then we can only find a replacement for the master that he likes." Nanny Chen replied.
Thinking back yesterday when my uncle came back and heard that she was going to help the housekeeper, he told her, "Daiyu puts more effort into letting your aunt have a good rest. Thank you, uncle." Daiyu's heart tightened, uncle and aunt She trusted her like this, but she wanted to get confused and hide it from others.
Asking about other things, most of them are trivial, after asking Nanny Chen for advice, Daiyu managed to deal with today's affairs, leaving behind the steward of the waiter and the kitchen staff, Daiyu concluded; " The kitchen door was left open, causing the cat to go in and eat the fish. This is due to the dereliction of duty of your kitchen staff. Since no one will admit it, then check how much you lost. Everyone will share it and let everyone learn a lesson. If you think you don’t do your own business, you don’t have to close the door.” The kitchen manager heard that he didn’t mean it unfairly, indeed, the people below are now arrogant, so it’s time to teach them a lesson.
Asking the waiter, "Who was the last person to see that cup yesterday?"
"It was Lian'er who went to collect the cups. She said that she handed it over to Xing'er, who was in charge of cleaning and storing," the waiter hurriedly replied. Ask the top to come down with an idea.
"What did Xing'er say?" Daiyu asked, tilting her head.
"She said she put the cup away after washing it, and there was no shortage at that time."
"Then who still has the key to the cabinet?"
"Except for Xing'er, I have one here, and there is another one at the general storehouse, so I don't use it easily."
"Myolie's keys are all here, but yours is gone."
"The servant's key hasn't left her body. She is not sure about Xing'er's key, because she did take it off in the shower yesterday."
"How many people can get access to that key?"
"It's just Tao'er from the same dormitory, and it's just Tao'er, another girl serving tea and water."
"Tao'er and Xing'er usually have a good relationship."
"Well, I heard that they had occasional quarrels."
"That's it, find an errand for Tao'er, dismiss her, and send someone else to search her things, don't let go of the hiding places she can touch, she may not put them in her own room. "
The teachers in these schools all have a little bit of tricks in the back house. When the teachers talked about it, they listened with great interest. They never thought that there were so many intrigues in the seemingly peaceful back house.
In the afternoon, when Daiyu and Jia Ai came back from school, they said they had found the teacup. Sure enough, Taoer was jealous of Xinger, stole Xinger's key, and hid a cup, waiting to see her bad luck. "Such a person can be punished freely and according to the rules, but it's not the girl's turn to worry about it," Nanny Chen couldn't help persuading Daiyu when she saw the melancholy on Daiyu's face. If she dared to reach out and do bad things, she should have thought of today's ending.
"No, I'm not thinking about this." Daiyu is not a savior, she has sympathy for everyone, and she has to take responsibility as soon as she does it, "I'll talk to my aunt for a while."
"Auntie," Daiyu greeted Xing Wei first, and Xing Wei smiled and waved her to come to her side: "I've heard it all, you've done a good job." Doing things well and rationally is a miracle on earth.
"I know it's my aunt who tested me, but she just gave me some trivial things," Daiyu Qingling is smart, why didn't she know that it was her aunt who specially tested her. At home, my grandmother often said that my eldest aunt was so good that she gave me a chance Learn more from her, and often say that I am too noble, and I am afraid that I will not be able to take on the role of housekeeper in the future.
Daiyu knew in her heart that she was sent to the Rongguo Mansion because her grandmother wanted to promote her studies. In fact, she knew that she just didn't want to provoke these sundries. But, without seeing her aunt's loving eyes, she unconsciously thought Go and reassure her.
"It's good that you know," holding Daiyu in her arms, being able to hug the fairy at close range is indeed a kind of blessing. Xing Wei feels at ease, and has less worry and miss for Xing Zhong. Indeed, who can rest assured Let the young children deal with these things. Daiyu knew very well that she couldn't handle the concierge's affairs, so she didn't open her mouth to come up with random ideas. She was a very measured person.
Daiyu also felt weird during the rubbing and rubbing. For some reason, she felt closer to her aunt than to her own mother, Jia Min. Obviously, her mother is a relative, and her aunt is only a relative. Relatives are still too strong to express their unclear feelings.
"I have a question to ask my aunt." Daiyu hesitated for a while. She didn't want to see her relatives make mistakes and be unlucky, so she held back a question and thought about it for a long time before she came to ask.
Xing Wei smiled and tapped Daiyu's little nose: "You want to ask about the set of teacups worth 300 taels?" Xing Wei was very happy that Daiyu would come to talk about this, and she was more worried than her own children Xin, Jia Lian, Jia Ying, and Jia Ai have used these valuables as a matter of course since they were young, and they never worry about whether there is a problem with their origin.
Daiyu was a little embarrassed, lowered her head and said softly: "I heard from the master in the school that the salary of my father and uncle is only a few hundred taels of silver a year, not to mention other expenses, this tea set alone costs a lot. I can’t afford to buy a few sets, not to mention that there are hundreds of taels of treasure everywhere in our house, so I was worried, so I came here to ask.”
"You have a heart," Xing Wei hugged Daiyu and kissed her. It takes such a delicate heart to think of such a question: "Don't worry, not only your uncle and father, but all the officials and butchers I don’t rely on salaries to support my family. The school talks about it just to let you know the laws of our country.” At the beginning, in order to keep the girls of the clan from touching those things that violated laws and disciplines, they specially set up law enforcement officers. Naturally, to talk about these official positions, ranks, and salaries, others would just listen to it and let it go, but Daiyu remembered it in her heart.
Seeing that Daiyu's eyes were wide open and she was thirsty for knowledge, Xing Wei told her in detail; "It is said that an official should not compete with the people for profit, but look, the shops on the street are well-made, the one Without some background, ordinary people dare not get involved in big business at all, for fear of being bullied and seized." Then he nodded Daiyu's forehead, "Your grandmother, mother, and some dowry under the name of your aunt, accumulated by your ancestors through the generations Property, shop, Zhuangzi, these are the sources of support for our family of officials."
It is said in the original book that Daiyu used all the scraps and papers from the Rongguo Mansion. In fact, only those foolish people in the Rongguo Mansion are willing to spread the word. If this word is known to others, they must first ask, "Your Rongguo Mansion is married. Doesn’t the daughter give a dowry? Could it be that Jia Min’s ten-mile red makeup was a lie? Otherwise, not to mention the inheritance of the five generations of the Lin family and the success of the dowry of the mistresses of the past, Jia Min’s dowry alone is enough for Lin Daiyu’s life I can't eat enough."
However, these people don’t even know that they slapped themselves, and this Lin Daiyu has no one to guide her. Instead, she still hates these careers and economics. Isn’t it what adults expect to describe what a child looks like?She is bitter, mean and petty, so maybe her relatives forced her to do so.
"Not only these, in addition to the salary, there are Lumi, Chai Tan, etc. These are official salaries, and there is also filial piety in private. This is a rule, not a bribe or something illegal, and we don't want it," Xing Wei cracked her fingers and counted for her: "How many officials do you want to say have a clean sleeve? Let me tell you, no. If you can't bring a lot of food, rice, oil and salt to his family to support his family, who has nothing to do? You can buy land with money and become a rich man.”
"There are indeed those high-minded and self-proclaimed civil servants who refuse to take the routine filial piety, and the daughter-in-law at home also has less dowry to subsidize. It is very difficult to live. Such people dare not even buy slaves, because they are afraid that they will not be able to pay. Eat and drink, can't afford clothes, and in order to make some money to supplement the family, sell the unfinished lumi to the shops at a discount, earning the difference between the prices." Xing Wei smiled, "It's just that such people are really a minority, they are too noble If you don't fit in, you don't need to be humiliated by others, and sooner or later you won't be able to live on yourself."
Looking at Daiyu's disapproving gaze, Xing Wei counted for her: "People eat whole grains, there are people who don't get sick, how much money does a medicine cost, and his family doesn't even have any surplus food. If someone in the family gets sick, they will die." Not to mention himself and his daughter-in-law, as well as the elderly and children, who can guarantee that he will not get sick for the rest of his life, and if he is sick, should he wait to die?" Xing Wei nodded, "In fact, this kind of person is the most unacceptable. name, the whole family will suffer with him.”
"I'm not in favor of official corruption, it's just that a gentleman takes money and seeks it in a proper way. We don't steal, and we don't rob. The filial piety from the bottom is not forced, but the shops below and the local gentry. Live with peace of mind, the shop is going well, buy peace of mind, he buys his peace of mind, and your life goes smoothly, why not do it? As an official, you only need to make decisions for the people, even if you are in the same boat?"
"That's right, as long as an official is in charge of the people, don't you worry about colluding with others?" Xing Wei's voice fell, and Jia Amnesty came in loudly, followed by Jia Lian, Jia Ying and Lin Jun. I don't know these few After listening outside for a long time, just looking at their thoughtful faces, I must not only hear the last few sentences.
Xing Wei also didn't get up to greet Jia She, the couple had already passed the stage of being polite and alienated, she greeted Jia She with a smile: "I'm back," and nodded to the children, Jia She said "yes" With a promise, Daiyu raised her hand to salute Xing Wei, sat down, sat down and watched her two sons and cheap nephew salute Xing Wei, and said: "I look down on those so-called upright officials the most. You are so clean that you can't even support your family." still have the face to be called a man in vain; there are even more irritating ones, who only rely on women for support, and have three wives and four concubines to frighten others, and they are full of truth, saying that women are inferior to men." Jia She Speaking of this, I am also a little ashamed. Speaking of it, not only did he have the idea of embezzling his wife's natal family's "property" at the beginning, but also the later title. layer?
Jia Amnesty was upset about Xing Wei's downturn these days. It was rare to see her happy today, and he couldn't help but feel emotional. Thinking of Xing Zhong, thinking of himself being in danger, thinking of Jia who was determined to join the army Ying, he gave Jia Ying a hard look. "You have to remember that when people live in this world, they should take care of themselves and their families first, and then think about doing other things. If your life is gone, why talk about other things?"
Xing Wei taught Fairy a lesson today, she seemed to have listened to it, and was happy, showing off in front of her sons, and said with emotion, "People don't live for themselves, they have to adapt to this society, you are noble Yes, but you will be sad if you are out of the group, and you can't escape the worldly reputation, so why just indulge in the so-called books to find the place of the gods, because we are the children of mortals and cannot leave this dirty place."
"Finally feeling better today?" After the children had dispersed, Jia Amnesty went up to hug Xing Wei and teased her.
"Hmm", how can it not be exciting to be a teacher in front of the fairy, Xing Wei exclaimed happily: "Your niece is simply a child prodigy, but it is a pity that she is not a man, and there is one less miracle in this world. "
Regardless of whether it is in the original book or in this life, if Daiyu is a man who can enter the court and become an official, there will definitely be a different change. In the original book, she worries and tears for a few fallen flowers. Apart from lamenting her own life experience, isn't it a worry for the people?This kind of person can't see loneliness the most, and can't do false things. As long as she is given a platform, isn't she afraid that she will devote herself to the country and the people?
"Didn't you mean yourself?" Jia She chuckled a few times, "Don't say you regret having a woman. If you were a man, where would I find you? How could I give birth to Jia Ying?"
"Mouth full of nonsense." Xing Wei was so ashamed that she hit Jia She a few times, remembering the corrupt texts she read in her previous life, the two men overlapped and intertwined, shivering tremblingly: If I were a man, what could I do if I traveled to the Red Chamber? whats the matter?Help the king to run the country, serve the people, expand the territory, and leave a name for hundreds of generations?
Marry a loving wife, or a house full of concubines to enjoy time travel benefits?Even overthrow the government and become emperor?Or do you like a man and help him achieve his ambitions?Forget it, the back house is still clean!As the head wife of her Rongguo Mansion, she is at ease. In her past and present lives, she has no interest in ruling others. She just wants to have children and live a small life with a man who can accompany her all her life. She can feel at ease until she grows old.
Jia She laughed happily. His wife was unhappy, so he didn't dare to act presumptuously. Today was finally sunny and cloudy, and he could ask for his own welfare to have sex.
The next day Xing Wei took over the family affairs again, but she didn't let Daiyu and Jia Ai go to school. No matter how good the school is, there are practical lessons learned there, so she took the two of them with her and let them watch themselves. How to deal with it, although Daiyu and Jia Ai are younger, but with their aunt and mother by their side, these two children are listening to Xing Wei quietly, and they are very attentive.
In the afternoon, I sent the two children to school again. Since the two children had accumulated some questions in the morning, they inevitably asked the teacher to deepen their understanding. In this way, what they learned every day was explained, and what they saw became more and more profound, which is beyond the comparison of ordinary students. .
Jia Mei was angry when she heard that Xing Wei was biased. Her daughter and Daiyu were only young, so they learned how to be housekeepers. Chen Jin is already 11 years old, and she can marry her husband's family, but she still doesn't know how to manage the house. As a real aunt , I don't know how to take her with me.
Jia Mei had eaten Xing Wei's robbing, and she didn't dare to find Xing Wei to be unlucky, so she encouraged her daughter to go to Xing Wei, so she would not beat her niece out.
So the next day Xing Wei was waiting for her mother-in-law to come to Yingmao, when she saw Chen Jin waddling into the yard, she frowned, and after she finished saluting, she asked, "Why didn't you go to school today?"
"Mother said let me learn housekeeping from my aunt," Chen Jin replied happily, without seeing the dissatisfaction on Xing Wei's face at all.
"Well, sit down when you come." The servant next to him hurriedly found a chair and put it aside. Seeing her sitting outside Daiyu and Jia Ai, Chen Jin felt a little dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say it, he could only feel wronged sat on the side.It was the first time she heard Xing Wei's stewardship, and she was inevitably curious, but just after listening for a while, she saw her aunt drop a cup, which scared her so much that she shivered. Listen to my aunt's advice. "Why, seeing that I'm soft-hearted now, everyone wanted to come to see if the rules of the Rongguo Mansion were just a display. A few days ago, I heard that my cousin was acting as the council member for me, so I came out to steal teacups and asked someone to frame me. Now There is something wrong with this, but the skin is itchy, waiting to be punished?"
Chen Jin was terrified, but also excited that she would be able to show off her power like her aunt in the future, but unexpectedly, she heard her aunt pass the message that she was going to beat someone here in class, which made her turn pale with fright.Xing Wei glanced at Chen Jin, looked at Daiyu and Jia Ai, Jia Ai's eyes were shining, she seemed to want to hit someone herself, Daiyu couldn't bear it, but she also pretended to be calm.
This is the difference. Although they wanted to give Chen Ming a blow by punishing others, it was the first time they had seen such a scene. Daiyu and Jia Ai were still a few years younger, and their reactions were the attitude of the mistresses. For someone like Chen Jin, it would be embarrassing to lift him up by force.
"Forget it, my sister and my cousins are here, wait until the afternoon for the torture," Xing Wei waved to let people go down, Jia Ai was full of disappointment and pouted to express dissatisfaction; Daiyu looked relieved and grateful He glanced at Xing Wei; Chen Jin breathed a sigh of relief, but looked at the person dragged out with his neck hooked, with regret on his face.This is the same as her mother, who is afraid of trouble and fears that the world will not be chaotic.
The next day, Chen Jin came early, and without waiting for the servant to speak, she sat on the chair where Daiyu sat yesterday and waited for Xing Wei and the others to come over. They were all cousins, and how old was she? Sit down with her?It can be said that yesterday was first come, first served, so don't take advantage of it today.
Xing Wei led Daiyu and Jia Ai in, seeing this scene, she felt even more displeased, she didn't say anything, let Daiyu sit in Jia Ai's chair, and hugged Jia Ai in her arms, Chen Jin felt uncomfortable , I even forgot to salute Xing Wei.
The left hand is respected, Jia Ai is young, but she is the master and always sits on Xing Wei's left, so Daiyu is naturally on the right.Now Chen Jin occupies the seat on the right, and Daiyu is on the left, still nobler than her, but she doesn't have the guts to ask Daiyu to get up and give her a seat, even if the stool is empty, she doesn't dare to sit easily without her aunt speaking .
Chen Jinzheng was secretly depressed, and saw a bunch of little girls coming, a beautifully dressed woman came to her aunt, different from the people who used to hold her breath in front of her aunt, she smiled and saluted her aunt: " How is Mrs. Hou? I am very polite." It turned out to be someone from outside, but I don't know who it is?He is neither a guest nor a servant, but he can easily enter the inner courtyard, and come to see the mistress so casually?
Xing Wei nodded and said: "It's okay, Aunt Chen is also good." This Chen family is a matchmaker, and the servants bought outside the Rongguo Mansion are all from her. Unknown people sneaked in, just because of this, Xing Wei can still take care of her business.
"Okay, okay, thanks to you, I am living a good life now." The old servants of the Rongguo Mansion are not for life now, let alone generations of servants. As long as there is a chance, Xing Wei will let them go out and be independent Or recommend a more promising place. In this way, there must be fresh blood to supplement, and it is inevitable to take care of Mrs. Chen a few times. Mrs. Chen has made money, and those who come and go are also taken care of by the Rongguo Mansion. The business is more natural than before. It's much easier to do. Of course, I am grateful to Xing Wei, and I will not fool her more and more. This is a virtuous circle, but it also requires people to manage it carefully.
"What kind of people did you bring today, but I told you, girls who are seven or eight years old?" Xing Wei wanted to add a few people to Jia Ai's side, one is to play with them, and the other is to train the married couple early The nanny in charge, not to mention it's too early, as a mother, I'm afraid that if I don't arrange well, it will make my daughter suffer in the future, so I think about everything early.
Daiyu was just in time for the meeting, so it's not easy to leave her behind, the key is that Mrs. Lin is very interesting in her work, and she only gave them an old woman and a little girl who only combed her hair. There are many wives, but it is not easy to specially assign them to Daiyu for frequent use. She is not short of the money, so she might as well buy a few for Daiyu. In the future, Lin Fu and Daiyu will be separated.
Xing Wei glanced at Chen Jin, since she was here, she was not bad, and buying two more maids would save two lives.
She naturally knew that this Mrs. Chen was not only her own customer, but she also wanted to send the girl she couldn't buy to other places. In the end, she picked out the ones that no one wanted, and she wouldn't go back to their parents' house. A place where meat and vegetables are not taboo will make some money anyway. It’s not that Xing Wei has no love. The family has no shortage of money and should buy them all back to save a few lives. It’s just that kindness can’t be exhausted. If the world doesn’t change, people It is cheaper than livestock, and she can't buy it all, so she can't see it.
"Of course it is. I was also afraid of missing my wife's errand. I picked them for more than a month, taught them some rules, and got together a few more, so I dared to bring them over, so that the sisters could have a good time." room for choice."
"Well," the matchmaker who has a client will usually teach the little girls some things first, in order to sell them at a better price. Xing Wei doesn't care, as long as it is not the eyeliner arranged by others.She specially bought this seven or eight-year-old girl back for her daughter, in order to get along with her since she was a child, and have a deep relationship with her, and she will think about her daughter in the future. The second is that these girls are not qualitative, even if it is someone else's eyeliner, it is easy to break it. For her own use, of course she still values the former, and by the way, there is an extra life-saving one.
Except in troubled times and catastrophic years, the girls sold by their families are generally poor and cannot afford to support them, or there are partial parents who dislike their daughters. middle.
"There is no problem with the identity contract. I don't want people of unknown origin here?" Xing Wei confirmed again. Every time I come, this is a routine questioning. I am afraid that there will be disputes in the future. In pursuit of it, she also has some responsibilities.
"This." In the past, Mrs. Chen would have answered swiftly, no problem, but today she hesitated, looked back at the little girl outside, came up and said softly to Xing Wei: "To tell you the truth, Mrs. Hou, today there is a little girl who gave the old man money. , asked the old man to bring her to Rongguo Mansion, saying that he wanted to see Mrs. Hou."
