Walking into the Red Mansion starts from the maid

People say that watching the snow in winter is an elegant thing, but if you want to see it, being buried under the quilt in the snow is the real enjoyment.

She covered her chin with the soft quilt, while the servants sweeping the snow were busy outside. The sound of regular waving brooms was the best hypnosis. At this moment, the whole person was like a big fish entering the sea and falling into the comfortable bottom.

With this kind of comfort, it was inevitable to worry about his own affairs, and he couldn't help but think in his heart that Hu Junrong had used the opportunity of promotion and salary increase to get rid of his slave status, and he had made a huge loss in this transaction.

Even if the national treasury is empty, are we still afraid of giving him an extra ten cents in salary?Although it was to avoid the calculations due to the change of court judge, but now that I have come back to my senses and thought about it carefully, I have to say that Lao Hu is really a gentleman who knows how to repay his kindness.

I have to think of something to repay him, and hug this thigh tightly.

It has been passed down in later generations that if a person wants to live a good life, he must have two good friends: doctors, lawyers, and policemen. It is not to take advantage, but to have a few words of advice from these people when arresting someone blind is enough.

At the moment, we still don’t know how Hu Junrong was brought aboard the pirate ship. The tiger and wolf medicines in each picture cannot be used at all. We must find an opportunity to remind him.

It has been snowing all night, and the stone branches in Yihongyuan Zhongshan are covered with snow. When the sun shines, it reflects bright light. If you wake up so early, why not go and have a good meal first.

With that said, he turned over and got up.

A bowl of shredded chicken soup was sitting on the water, holding it in front of her chest, exuding a warm aroma. Listening to the laughter of the maids who came to eat one after another, Yunzhu asked the maids across the table,

"It's Xiaohan tomorrow. It's rare that Baoyu doesn't go out to visit friends for several days in a row. What are you doing today? Are the girls still writing poems?" She was wearing a light green coat with a green jacket and a quilted jacket that the maids often wear. The long skirt of the same color looks like an onion. Among the magenta and goose yellow, it really stands out.

She Yue shook her head, saying she didn't know.

I don’t know, that means I won’t go out today.Sure enough, the news in Beijing was the most sensitive. Jia Baoyu was stripped of his status as a Jinshi by the emperor. Although he did not say it clearly, his former friends made more excuses when they reunited, and the frequency of contact was much lower.

Qixie said, "If you don't write poems, the old lady will be unhappy. Miss Shi will hold a banquet in the old lady's courtyard to make the old lady happy. I think she wants to invite the girls to join her."

"Ok."

Yunzhu asked no more questions.I just touched my round belly, thinking that I had eaten too much, and my whole body was naturally full of energy, but I was afraid that if I exercised too hard, I would not grow taller in adolescence... It came and went, and I took a hundred steps after a meal. Walking has become one of her few exercises.

When going to Jia Mu's courtyard, the girls and young men almost only bring one or two servants to serve them.

Yunzhu couldn't get through, so she took on errands such as delivering silk handkerchiefs back and forth. She walked around enthusiastically and did some exercises. The next moment she got a handful of almond candies, "Old lady, I don't like the crowds these days. You guys are doing well." Just go back."

Okay, it’s another half-day of free time.

A sequelae left over from the student days, when I was slacking off, I always had to have something to do in order to cope with unexpected inspections. No, when Xiaohong came, she saw Yunzhu crackling and dialing the abacus.

"One goes from nine to one, two goes to eight and goes to one, three goes to seven and goes to one..." She is paving the way for her future career. There is a lot of time in the Jia family to study, and there are three or five strengths that can be learned. If you are familiar with it, you will be considered a technical talent by the time you leave the government, and you will not have a problem making a living casually.

Just as she was fascinated by the tablet, someone tapped her on the shoulder.

"Ouch!" She was suddenly frightened, and saw the beads on the abacus jumping around, disrupting the formula in her mouth. When she saw it was Xiaohong, she said angrily, "Why didn't you say anything when you came? You look so good in what you wear, and you want to leave the house. ah?"

Xiaohong is wearing a white silk pleated long skirt and a pomegranate red jacket. She has a delicate emerald flower on her head, with fine gold tassels hanging from the flower's stamens, and her whole body is filled with joy.

"I said I'm here to give you candies, do you believe it?" Xiao Hong jokingly bumped into Yunzhu's arm and sat down beside her calmly, "My dad said that auspicious snow heralds a good harvest, and I happened to have a rumor about it. I’m telling you, but you can’t tell anyone else.”

Yunzhu put away her abacus, straightened up, and pretended to be listening.

"My father said that things can be good or bad, and you can't tell others more than a few words. Of course, I always remember to be careful in my words and deeds." Before he could finish his words, he blushed.

Looking at the spring-filled little face, Yunzhu shook his head and said, "Come on, let me guess, is something good coming soon?"

Xiaohong was stunned for a moment when she saw this, and didn't say anything. She just made an awkward noise, turned sideways, and nodded inconspicuously.Her status was big or small, so of course there were many people who deliberately approached her to please her, but the only ones that caught their eye were herself and Zhui'er.

Xiangsheng Zhui'er was sent out together. As a result, many children had private conversations. Who else could they talk to if not her?
The trust in the inner house was hidden in the hearts of these Chicheng children. Yunzhu was satisfied and felt that this thigh was sincere.

"The other party... is... Mr. Yun?" Thinking of that handsome man with a long face, Yun Zhu's eyes smiled.

She has seen her a few times. Although Jia Yun has more flirtations, she does them just to make a living, which is more pleasing to the eyes than the young men in Jia's family who are all evil.

"What second master? There is a surname hanging under the west corridor. How many years has the old man been gone? There is no relationship between us. When someone calls me fifth sister-in-law, it is because of friendship. This young one can even coax and deceive. Come and get a job of growing flowers and grass, otherwise, in a short time, the family will be unable to open the pot!" Xiaohong had a sharp mouth, and it was obvious that she was not very satisfied with this prospective mother-in-law, and there was a lot of sarcasm in her words.

Yunzhu didn't make any move and just asked, "Why don't you take another look and find one that is perfect?"

Xiaohong blushed, glanced at no one outside the window, and whispered: "I know what you mean in my heart. Nothing in this world is perfect. I just say that Brother Yun speaks openly and treats me carefully and thoughtfully. I will naturally I also know that his mother..." When talking about Jia Yun, Xiaohong's face was full of joy and she couldn't hide it, but when talking about Jia Yun's mother, she wanted to spit out her words.

At that time, many people were blindly getting married, and it was extremely rare for a marriageable man and woman like Xiaohong to be in love with each other and be enlightened. Lin Zhixiao must have done a lot of mediating in this, and Yunzhu couldn't help but praise her.

"Of course, you have always had a good sense." What a widow. To put it bluntly, Jia Yun is already in her early twenties. With the level of medical care in ancient times, how long does the old lady have to live?
"Second Master Yun behaves like a capable gentleman in front of Baoyu. We have all seen it before. With such a spirit, he will prosper sooner or later. If you become the landowner's wife, don't forget to pull me! Yunzhu said half-jokingly and half-sincerely. In the impression, Jia Yun is one of the few characters who died well in the whole book.

With the financial resources of the Lin family, it will not be difficult for the Jia family to continue to be a small landowner with sufficient food and clothing after their demise.So she said in an insinuating way that when the time comes, everyone will live their own lives. If the old lady can live, she should be respectful and filial. If the old lady cannot live, others will just sigh that she is not lucky. When the golden phoenix flies into the house, she closes her eyes and cannot blame others.

Let Jia Yun handle the rest of the mess by herself.

Seeing that she was talking nonsense, Xiaohong also laughed and said, "Well, as the old saying goes, if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. That old lady is like a dragon in a tiger's den. I have to go and see her. Who told her to give birth to Brother Yun? Such a man."

Yunzhu was originally happy for Xiaohong, but she didn't want her words to change and turn around to the issue of the body contract.

"There's only one more thing." Xiao Hong said solemnly, "Second Mistress found out about this, so she let me go. I originally planned to wait for a few more years, and when my mother gets old, I can take over her errands." It's good to have a livelihood... It seems like it won't work now. If you let me go, I will have nothing to do with the house. I'm afraid it will be difficult to come in in the future, so I thought of coming to see you today."

Body to body bond... After hearing this, Yunzhu couldn't help but ask if he spent 500 taels.

"That's not true. The Second Grandma said that this was a great happy event, and she also rewarded me... no, she gave me a red seal of 100 taels of silver." Xiao Hong said simply, she was now the 'Second Grandma', Although Jia Yun is of a lower generation, she will be a serious lady when she goes out in the future.

If the word "reward" is used, it would be both humiliating oneself and insulting the second grandmother.

As for Yunzhu, she had never thought about it in detail before. Now that she was going through the process, she understood what everyone has their own destiny. Could it be that because she was an NPC in the Red Mansion, she had to add additional difficulty attributes? Can't?
When Xiaohong saw her with a sad face, she just thought that her money-obsessed nature was acting out again.

Then he took her hand and kept talking, "Why do you ask me this? You are born to serve Baoyu. Every month you bring money and rewards, and you have an income of three to five taels of silver. How many people are envious before it's too late. Wait for me I’ve taken over my father’s dim sum shop, and when the time comes, I’ll ask you to become a shareholder and give you bonus points!”

"Thank you first." Yunzhu replied feebly. Everyone said that Jia's Mansion was a happy nest, a place of gods, and Yihongyuan was a good place for others to get in.

However, I am thinking about quitting my nationality. If I say it, I will only be scolded by others for not knowing the blessings and living a life without knowing what is good or bad.Thinking about it this way, it's better not to reveal it yet, so as not to get into trouble.

The two talked for a long time, and when it got dark, Xiao Hong reluctantly left. After going out, she kowtowed to Jia Baoyu, and then met with the maids who used to discipline her. After saying goodbye one by one, Out of the gate of Yihongyuan.

Qixie knew that she had climbed onto Wang Xifeng's high branch, so she politely sent her off and said a few nice words. Then she turned around and caught Yunzhu and asked her what she was doing, but what was the matter?

The sky was gray, and snowflakes were floating in the air again. Yunzhu snuggled next to Qixie and said, "Sister, you are a rare good person in the world. You just need to spare me for now. She won't let me tell anyone. It’s hard for me to say, it’s not the masters’ business after all.”

Xindao Xiaohong is now a eldest girl in her [-]th and [-]th years. Now that she has got rid of her slave status, her marriage is just around the corner, and she doesn't know how many people's jaws will be shocked by then.

"You guys!" Qi Xie said angrily, not asking further questions. As long as it didn't hinder her errands, she didn't like to care about the private lives of the maids.

During this year's New Year's Day, everything in the house was peaceful and peaceful. The only gloom was that the old lady's body was not very strong. During the New Year's Day, the imperial doctor often came in and out, which made people worried.

But the riot in Jinling seemed not to have reached Jia's house at all.

Yunzhu was worried but happy at the same time, fearing that her masters would be surprised and make life difficult for them as servants.What's more, when it comes to important matters in the court, it doesn't matter whether people like the Jia family know about it or not. Anyway, the emperor has already sharpened his sword and is waiting for the east wind.

During dinner, a pot of mutton was served from the small kitchen. Yunzhu was instantly refreshed and felt that the cloying smell of lamb was giving her a headache.

He sat at the end of the table, surrounded by a plate of small shrimps and green vegetables in front of him, nibbling carefully on a sauced duck wing given by Mrs. Hu in his hand, taking a bite of rice from time to time, and enjoying it with the winter snow.

Now Jia Baoyu doesn't have to study hard, otherwise it would be inappropriate for the maids like them to gasp for breath in Yihong Courtyard.You want Yunzhu to say that An An can be a wealthy young man with peace of mind. Riding horses and riding around the streets to eat, drink and have fun is what he should do. Want to make progress?In the current situation of the Jia family, it would be self-defeating to seek improvement.

It's just that the people in the game don't know four or six.

Now that Yingchun's marriage has been finalized, Chen Yu and Jia Baoyu were in high school at the same time. When the old emperor was happy, he appointed him as an official. The official position was not big, but he was on the border of Yizhou and within the sphere of influence of Chen Yu. .

As a family member, we must go to Yizhou with the Chen family at the beginning of the new year. Now that three boxes and five cars are coming back, the excitement of Jia's house has increased by [-]%.The Chen family originally proposed that she spend the New Year in Jia's Mansion, but perhaps she didn't have many close friends. She paid homage to her elders during the Spring Festival, so she stayed in the house every day and didn't go out.

The servants were all human beings, and when they saw this, they took turns coming to the second girl to make fun of her. One of them wanted to reward her with money, and the other of them also performed for the ladies.

Mrs.Mrs. Wang even more so, after one reunion dinner, she never saw Yingchun again.

But Jia Baoyu heard this, which aroused a lot of sadness about separation. Even if he sent the message, it would be better to choose a day and invite his sisters and brothers to visit Qinfang Bridge tonight.

It feels like a farewell party.

This operation overwhelmed the servants like Yunzhu. After all the arrangements were made, although there was a small amount of sweat on her forehead, when the cold wind blew, she couldn't help but hugged her arms and muttered, "It's so late, Qinfang." Will the wind and snow on the pavilion get stronger? Will the girls be able to bear it?"

"It doesn't matter. There are five or six fire pots around it, and there are curtains to block the wind. As long as it doesn't exceed two hours, you won't be able to freeze." She Yue is confident and is obviously a master at planning events.

When the masters get together, even if they don't have to wait close to them, they can't go far away. Yunzhu feels that she is squeamish. It was such a windy and snowy winter when she first entered the house. At that time, she didn't feel as cold as she did now even if she was wearing a single coat.

She trembled and ran to the lee of the rockery, ready to go back to the yard to put on some clothes before coming out. Who knew that when she turned around, she caught another 'thief' stealing something.

There are thieves everywhere every day!
"Put the things down, or I'll call someone!" With the clanging sound, Yunzhu felt that he shouldn't go forward, but by some strange combination, he looked at the short stature of the little thief, so he relied on all his strength , went up recklessly.

"Master Huan San?"
