Walking into the Red Mansion starts from the maid

The prince of Beijing asked to marry a girl from the Xue family as his concubine, and his majesty agreed, and the royal decree personally granted him such dignity. It became the biggest news in the capital in March, ranging from princes and nobles to traffickers and pawns.

When the ministers and servants twisted their beards and smiled, feeling extremely proud of their success in this game with the emperor, the back palace was also envious.

Agricultural business.

In an era where classes were clearly defined, it was simply unbelievable that a daughter from a merchant family could become a princess.

When the Jia family received the news, everyone was dumbfounded and couldn't believe that they had heard it with their own ears.

Information that explodes like this usually spreads its own wings and can fly everywhere without anyone spreading it. In Yihongyuan, where there are so many people and so many eyes, it is even more difficult to stop it.

Baoyu, who was calling Qiu Wei for the second half of the year and the illness in front of her that made her eyes black and blue, looked up blankly after hearing this, "Which King of Beijing? Are you asking Sister Bao to be a concubine?"

Qi Lai hurriedly stepped forward to hand him the water, put away the books in front of him, and said comfortingly: "Of course, the one in the capital is Prince Jingbei of the Shui family. Besides him, is there anyone else who dares to call him by this name?"

As for wives and concubines, no one dares to talk nonsense.

Although if she is not a wife, she is naturally a concubine, but who dares to say that a royal concubine is a concubine?Can the eldest girl and Aunt Zhao be equated?

Baoyu's face gradually turned red. Regardless of how thin he was, he stood up and kept digging out something in the box behind the bed.

"Oh, ancestor, what are you looking for? Just tell us, what is this for?" She Yue paused while taking care of the sachet, then stepped forward to pick up the clothes thrown out by Baoyu, and hurriedly tried to persuade her, for fear that something would happen. trouble.

The maids also tried to stop and pull her, but they didn't dare to use any force. They stepped forward one by one and were thrown out again as if they were singing a big show.

Just as they were making a fuss, they heard Jia Baoyu pull out his knife, followed by a click, and the blade connected with the table, making a dull sound.

The airway in her mouth asked Mingyan to send the "corpse" of the purse that was opened in half to the Prince of Beijing. She said that she would cut off her robe and sever ties and never have any contact with her again. Then she wandered back and forth in the room like a headless fly, without any books. After reading it, I didn’t write any more words.

It would be wrong to use all the strength he had recovered from his injuries here or there, so he simply took a whip and started waving it in the yard.

"It can be seen that the body is getting better." Yunzhu was happy when he saw it. It spared Mrs. Wang from staring at Yihongyuan every day, and everyone was afraid that they would be laid off if they did something wrong.

but.

The most angry one among them is undoubtedly Mrs. Wang. She tried her best to help Baochai to be the second grandmother of the Jia family, and worked hard to clean up her life experience. Even the stain of Xue Pan has been wiped out. The Jia and Wang families are manipulating the change of name, and will soon follow Wang Ziteng to take office.

As for Baochai, although her biological father died young, she was good at everything with her appearance and skills. Her biological uncle was still the ruler of nine provinces, and he was the first to run for the reputation he had built during his time as an attendant...

What is this called nowadays?
If you fail to kill the chicken, you will lose the rice?Or make wedding clothes for others?

"It has just been quiet for two days, and finally the master has taken office. It's great now. Baoyu is studying, and we can't even breathe!" Xiaohong was playing hopscotch with a few maids in the backyard, and was asking everyone to catch him. With.

I don't know if it was a personal grudge or a public outrage, but everyone was so angry that they didn't say anything. They just dragged Xiao Hong to Zhou Rui's family and sued her.

Fortunately, Zhou Rui's family was smart and refused to be caught between the Lai and Lin families. They scolded Xiao Hong once and let her go.

"Autumn is coming at the end of the year. Since I said I wanted to participate, I can't go back empty-handed. My wife is doing this because she is eager to teach her son. Don't be angry. How does this new Hibiscus look?"

The main reason was that it was useless to be angry. They were trying to control everything and didn't even give her a chance to jump in. It seemed that because of the land enclosure, the Lai family hated the Lin family, even with their children.

His eyes fell on the pot of white hibiscus, but for some reason, Xiaohong blushed and said calmly: "It's very pretty. But then again, we won't send anything that doesn't look good to our Yihongyuan." "

"Yes, Mr. Yun specially told people that this year there was only one pot of crimson in the shed. He also said that such a beautiful color cannot be found anywhere else. I would like to ask Yihongyuan to give it to me first." Yun said. Zhu deliberately bit on the word "Xian reward", and the smile in Xiaohong's eyes became even more difficult to hide.

Xiaohong snorted and changed the subject: "I see your handwriting is better than last year. Can you write a couplet for me?"

"You better appreciate it. Baoyu even said that my words are like earthworms hanging themselves!" Yunzhu squinted her nostrils without commenting on Jia Baoyu's words, and asked Xiaohong excitedly: "Where to hang? I have to look through the book and pick one for you. All four corners of the connection are complete!”

What she practiced was serious facial and physical training, but it just doesn't look like it now.

"I……"

"??" Yunzhu tilted his head and looked at her.

"Don't worry, I'm just going to spend some time with Second Grandma. When Second Grandma doesn't need me anymore, I'll..." Xiaohong hesitated, thinking about how to explain that she would be leaving Yihongyuan in a few days. thing.

It turned out that this was the case. Yunzhu consoled him and said, "What are you talking about? It's about your future, so don't worry about it."

She had known for a long time that Xiaohong had been daunting Wang Xifeng intentionally or unintentionally since she contacted Jia Yun.Later, when Tanchun became the head of the family, she also showed great enthusiasm for helping. If she said that she was not working hard for the position of Mrs. Yun Er, Yunzhu would not believe it.

Now her chance has come, the time is ripe to break out of this vicious circle, Yunzhu sincerely sent a couplet promising a long journey ahead.

A small piece of gold-red paper with a dozen regular words can just fit inside the clothes box, as if it is a unique secret between two children.

Seeing her sincerity and appropriateness, Xiaohong felt very guilty.

"I'm sorry, I'm not sure, so I don't dare to tell you. I'm even more afraid of causing trouble and hurting you." She choked in a low voice, not daring to look at Yunzhu's sparkling eyes.

In the eyes of outsiders, there is nothing wrong with being a slave in the Rongguo Mansion. You have good food, adequate clothing, abundant seasonal rewards, and dignity when walking outside.

But some people know that this is not the case. One is Zhao Lu, who has seen a better world, and the other is Lin Hongyu, who can immediately run towards a better life.

Zhao Lu was now shackled to this little baby, unable to move and did not dare to move.However, Lin Hongyu already had her own skills and the confidence of her family. She only had to lift her skirt and rush to a new life.

How can this not make people envious?

The two of them got together, holding a gourd in each hand to add water to the myna who was taking a bath.Seeing Xiaohong's frustration, Yunzhu said hurriedly: "Don't say that, Second Grandma has always had a lot of sewing skills. Now that you are gone, your career will be prosperous! It's very enviable."

Xiao Hong smiled and said, "As long as we are rich and noble, we will never forget each other."

After all, it was Wang Xifeng's resolute and resolute temper that even though he wanted to let go now, the speed of doing things was still the same as usual. Early the next morning, Xiaohong packed up and left Yihongyuan.

Jia Baoyu was still immersed in the stimulation brought to him by the water solution, and Xiaohong was not usually the best in front of him. He only kowtowed and rewarded something, then waved her to go, very casually.

Seeing this, Qixie said that she would cook a cup of lotus seed soup for him, the kind that didn't bother her.Jia Baoyu couldn't care less about his discomfort for a moment. After reading for a while, he shouted to invite Sister Lin to go to the lake. In short, he would go to the lake after reading today, enjoy the lotuses after reading tomorrow, and climb up after reading the day after tomorrow. It was really a moment. I didn’t let this big garden sit idle.

But when it comes to reading, it’s sloppy.

Those collections of classics and history in the imperial examination were boring. They often turned a few pages before having tea and paying homage. They sat at the desk for a while, leaned on the couch for a while, and then read some leisurely books. Then it was time to relax with the sisters.

Usually he goes out with a slap on the butt without any regrets.

Without a playmate, Yunzhu had no choice but to follow and wait at the door of the study. Jia Baoyu jingled the bell and caused trouble in the study. Yunzhu quietly cleaned up and spent more time reading and writing. Lian Lin Everyone laughed at her, fearing that she could become the smallest 'abacus' if she could teach herself to enter the accounting room.

It was June in the blink of an eye, and Mrs. Hu happily entered the Xiaoxiang Hall again with the news, pulled Yunzhu and said: "Good girl, I passed the exam! I passed the exam!"

This news reached Daiyu's ears, and Daiyu smiled: "This is great!"

"You are so knowledgeable!" Jia Baoyu continued. Seeing Daiyu smile, he also laughed and whispered proudly in Daiyu's ear: "Now no one dares to say that Mrs. Hu is a village woman. As soon as she entered the hospital, she was six A noble official, Mrs. Hu will also be a real official wife from now on!"

In this way, it is justifiable for a female family member to stay in the inner house for a long time and specialize in the care of your daughter.

Although the time of joining has not yet been determined, Hu Junrong's name is on the red list of Taiyuan Hospital.

"There's green smoke, there's green smoke!" Hu Junrong burst into tears, covered his face and sobbed. He went to the sponsor's home to see the gift, and invited Dr. Wang to express his thanks.

When he got to the door of his house, he asked a few beggars to bow and scattered a handful of copper coins before going to Liu's house next door.

When he was about to knock on the door, he turned around and went to the street corner to buy a lot of peanut candies and pork head meat. Side dishes in his left hand and water in his right hand. When he saw Liu Ping, his first words were, "I passed the exam, I passed the exam!"

The second sentence is, "It's a pity that Sixth Girl is not here. I am an old man and I can't do anything even if I kowtow to her!"

It is said that the more you listen to the news, the better it becomes. Because Zhao Liu is on duty in the Duke's Mansion, Zhao San and his wife usually pay special attention to the affairs between these nobles. Now that they see Hu Junrong entering the Imperial Hospital, they feel that life is getting brighter. Zhao San, who was the strictest in Japan, also drank two glasses of water and wine for the first time.

Seeing the happy couple, Hu Junrong poured cold water on them, with a depressed look on his face, "Whether this luck is good or bad, you should be careful in Beijing."

"what happened?"

Hu Junrong shook his head first and threw a mouthful of peanuts into his mouth. "I am about to be sent to Jinling. There is a flood there and there are signs of a major epidemic."

Chewing the peanuts in his mouth gave rise to a bitter taste, and he didn't know whether it came from his heart or from the peanuts. Hu Junrong had been holding back his smile for a whole day, and finally collapsed. The man in his forties was so bitter that he had runny nose and tears. He seemed to be crying out all the anger in his chest.

"Have mercy on my son...my wife...I...hiccup!"

Zhao San also fell silent. Madam Hu had just returned to Rongguo Mansion today, and it would take three to five days to come out again. The servants in Jia Mansion were so unruly that they couldn't even send money to deliver the news.

It is still possible to use Xiao Liu'er's name outside, but in such a portal, if people's names are reported randomly, what will happen if it causes trouble for Xiao Liu'er?Zhao San's expression remained unchanged, but he felt as if he had gall in his heart, "Bullshit...when will Doctor Hu go to Jinling? Has a date been set?"

"It was originally scheduled to be on the tenth day of the lunar month. Looking at the scene in the Taiyuan Hospital, His Majesty probably hopes that the sooner the better. If an order is issued, there is no telling whether he will leave tomorrow."

The sooner the better indeed.

It wasn't dark yet, and Jia Baoyu was still playing by the lake. Unexpectedly, a servant in Qingpao entered Rongguo Mansion. After reporting all the way, he was standing in Jia She's yard and said loudly:
"Old lady, sir, the Jia family in Jinling sent someone to report that there is flooding over there!"

The ancestral home of the Jia family is in Jinling. Now floods are approaching in the surrounding counties and counties, and rogue bandits are rampant.The tribesmen came to report the time and emphasized that the heavy rain had not stopped for three days. If it rained like this again, it would only be a matter of time before it reached Jinling.

Jia She didn't care about things, so Jia's mother forced her to be transferred out despite Wang Xifeng's complaint of illness, saying that she wanted to arrange money and food for doctors, medicinal materials, etc.

The flood came unprepared, and there must be a shortage of everything in Jinling City. Taking action at this time would not only solve the urgent needs of the old house, but also maybe make a profit from it.

Wang Xifeng was busy calculating, but then she thought about it, how much money did she earn for the Jia family in the past?Nearly half of the dowry was spent, and she worked hard but didn't necessarily get much benefit, but now she has lost money.

To earn or not to earn?

Seeing Mrs. Wang's urging, Wang Xifeng sneered in her heart: Now you are in a good mood. It was not like this when you encouraged me to spend money and effort to make a fool of myself!
"Jinling is the root of our family. In terms of seniority, the uncles who stayed in Jinling are really from the same family. They are close to each other. They should be like-minded and help each other. It's just..."

As he spoke, he seemed to think of his child who died young. He immediately covered his face with a voice of sadness and choked with sobs: "The old lady trusts me, so she entrusts me with such a life-threatening matter. My granddaughter-in-law should never say no." Words come. But I have been behind closed doors for so long, and even the manpower and money are not available for a while, I am afraid that I will not be able to do well. "

Looking up, she saw anxious looks in everyone's eyes and heard complaints from the crowd. She forced a smile and said, "This is a major event that endangers our family. I am young and thin-faced. Now the old lady confesses that I don't dare to Don't shirk it, just ask my wife to help me with the eyes, and let's do this thing beautifully together."

In the blink of an eye, Wang Xifeng figured out that she had to make money but use less strength. If she hadn't taken care of the old lady and Sister Qiao, she would have given up her life long ago!
Before Jia Mu could say anything, Mrs. Wang looked at Sister Feng up and down several times and felt sour in her heart.

Then he thought of his shrunken daughter-in-law in the Grand View Garden, and hated Jia Zhu for leaving early.It was so easy to get two smart and capable daughters, but one of them went to the palace, and the other was separated by a layer of belly. Looking around in recent years, she didn't even have an arm.

You want to support your niece. This niece looks different every day. She longs for a pair of pants when they kiss each other. But sometimes she looks at her coldly and seems to have other plans. It makes people confused and naturally they don't believe it.

Thinking that she had just moved the cloth in the dowry to the warehouse of her house, and that it was the right time to spend money, Mrs. Wang tremblingly wanted to refuse.

But Jia Mu agreed, "Go ahead."
