Gourmet Red Chamber: A Chronicle of Baochai's Rebirth

Mrs. Wang turned around and ran back. Wang Xifeng lived in the row of side rooms behind Rongxi Hall, which was not even a yard.

She was used to being pampered, but she had never run so shamelessly before, running out of breath and running with hair in disarray, but she could only see a few empty rooms and not even a single person.

Somehow, she thought of the scene when Yu Xin opened his mouth and asked for the Rongxi Hall for Wang Xifeng.

Want Rongxi Hall?
dream!

She deserves it!

But the facts before her clearly told her that Wang Xifeng had moved away!
Where has she moved?

Mrs. Wang was a little confused, but more of a panic. Although she was not smart, she was instinctively afraid of such a change.

"Mrs!"

Mrs. Wang, who was stunned in place, suddenly turned around and saw the son she had longed for running towards her.

Mrs. Wang's tears that had dried up suddenly welled up again. She choked and called "my son", hugged Jia Baoyu into her arms, and cried bitterly.

During the days and nights when she was locked up in Guancui Nunnery, she was most concerned about Jia Baoyu.

Baoyu is still so young and has the most innocent and innocent mind. Without her care, he doesn't know how much he would have suffered!
If Wang Xifeng hates her, she will definitely be mean to him in terms of food and clothing!
The maids and ladies in his house, without her intimidation, would not have done their jobs seriously, and they would not have known how to bully him into being soft-faced and kind-hearted to fool him!
Has he eaten well, has he been naughty, has he studied hard, has he been scolded by his father, has he thought about himself...

Many days of worry turned into tears, pouring out from the corners of Mrs. Wang's eyes and flowing onto Jia Baoyu's new two-color gold and red silk coat with a hundred butterflies pierced with flowers.

Jia Baoyu also cried loudly, and the mother and son hugged each other and cried for a long time. Only then did Mrs. Wang come back to her senses and put her arms around Jia Baoyu's shoulders and looked him up and down carefully.

Seeing that he was not thin, and his face was rosy, he was pleased, but he did not feel relieved. He kept asking, "Have you been able to eat well during my absence? Have you been wronged in any way?"

Jia Baoyu shook his head hurriedly, "I can't bear any grievance at home, but my wife -"

As he spoke, he caught a glimpse of Mrs. Wang's white hair on her temples, and immediately started crying again, "My wife is suffering. I went to beg the old lady to let her out, but the old lady just refused, saying that she had made a mistake and she should recite the Buddha's name with devotion. !

If we want to recite the Buddha's name, we should recite the Buddha's name. Why do we have to recite the Buddha's name in the Cuicui Temple? We are not allowed to see my wife!

Sister Feng sent someone to tell me today, but I didn’t even know that my wife was back! "

When it comes to the people Mrs. Wang hates the most now, Jia Mu and Wang Xifeng are definitely at the top of the list. After hearing Jia Baoyu's words, she gritted her teeth with hatred, "You said it was Feng Yatou who told you. Feng Yatou asked you to come here to find me." ?”

Jia Mu, she has nothing to do with her at the moment, but Wang Xifeng, she has many ways to control her!

Jia Baoyu nodded, "I'm still curious. Sister Feng has already moved to Yihongyuan in Grand View Garden. What is your wife doing here?
Sister Feng only said, just ask me to come here to find my wife."

Wang Xifeng was sure that she would come here to settle the score with her!

The things in her house were indeed the hands and feet of that little prostitute!
Mrs. Wang was angry and cursed, "That little whore was raised by a prostitute! She deserves to live in Yihongyuan, which is the place I have long admired for my son! She deserves to live in it!"

Baoyu, let’s go find the old lady and get Yihongyuan back! "

As she spoke, she was about to grab Jia Baoyu's hand, but Jia Baoyu stepped back and looked at her in disbelief, "Madam, what did you scold Sister Feng just now?"

A little whore raised by a whore?
How could my wife use such vulgar words?Are you scolding your long-dead eldest sister-in-law and biological niece?
Mrs. Wang was stunned and hurriedly explained, "I was so angry just now and I didn't know what I said!
Baoyu, you don't know that your sister Feng took advantage of my absence to search everything in my house.

I don’t know where it went, they didn’t even leave me a teapot to drink water from! "

Mrs. Wang felt thirsty again as she spoke. She licked her dry lips unconsciously and swallowed hard.

Jia Baoyu said hurriedly, "Madam, you have misunderstood Sister Feng, I know this.

It was Lian's second brother who said that the government had a deficit of more than 200 million, and the old lady could only subsidize less than half of the money for her private house. He went to his father to find a solution.

The father said that since it was the mother who owed the debt, he should use the mother's things to pay for it.

All the things that Sister Yuchuan ordered personally were given away as pawns, but it was still not enough.

My father took some more from me and some of his own calligraphy and paintings, and that was just enough. Sister Feng never got her hands on it from beginning to end."

Mrs. Wang almost fainted, so many good things were pawned, pawned!

There is also the dowry she brought from the Wang family!What qualifications does he have to take advantage of it!

Jia Baoyu unconsciously looked at Mrs. Wang as he spoke, with confusion, confusion, and faint fear in his eyes, "Madam, my father said that my wife misappropriated the palace's money to subsidize me and my eldest sister.

That's why our family incurred so many debts, and they also went out to loan usury money, causing our family to commit the serious crime of ransacking the house.

Madam, do my eldest sister and I need to spend that much money? "

Mrs. Wang felt stuffy in her heart when he asked her, and she could hardly breathe.

However, she would not blame Baoyu. Her son was innocent and innocent. He must have been bewitched by outsiders!
It must be that little prostitute Wang Xifeng!
At this time, Mrs. Wang had selectively ignored the words Jia Baoyu said, "Father said my wife is——", and she hated Wang Xifeng even more.

Sure enough, she couldn't do it if she wasn't here. That villain took advantage of her and looked at what she had done with her skills!

Mrs. Wang was so angry that she vomited out a mouthful of blood, gasped and cursed, "These are the words that the little prostitute said to you, right?
She just wants to instigate you and my mother and son to separate, so that she can get her wish and avenge me for ransacking her house!
You slutty little whore, she borrowed money herself, but it's all on me!

But it’s just because of the support of Yu Xin!I don’t know how I got it by selling meat and skins! "

Jia Baoyu was startled when he saw her suddenly vomiting blood, and shouted for the imperial doctor. He didn't want to hear her scolding her like this immediately, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Although he doesn't know the world, he is not stupid.

It was Jia Zheng who personally told him about Mrs. Wang's loan sharking. Between Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, he believed Jia Zheng's words more.

What's more, he believed that Mrs. Jia would not imprison Mrs. Wang in Caocui Nunnery for no reason.

He didn't know that Mrs. Wang said that Wang Xifeng had loaned loan sharks and ransacked her house, so he naturally understood after hearing this.

The next time I saw her looking ferocious and crazy, I felt even more frightened. I took a few steps back, turned around and ran away.

Mrs. Wang cursed, and then she realized that she had scared her son, and she hurriedly called Baoyu and chased him.

When Jia Baoyu saw her coming to chase him, he was even more frightened and felt the wind at his feet.

Mrs. Wang was tired, hungry and thirsty. There was no way she could outrun him. Seeing Jia Baoyu running very fast, she disappeared behind the flowers and trees after a while. She sat down on the ground slumped and cried loudly again...

……

...Early in the morning on the second day of the Lunar New Year, everyone in the Xue Mansion was well prepared and headed to the Prince's Mansion with New Year's greetings.

The last time Mrs. Xue saw Wang Ziteng was when Jia Yuanchun first entered the palace. Wang Ziteng went to Yangzhou on business and took a detour to Jinling.

It was at that time that Wang Ziteng saw that the little Xue Baobao was a little beauty embryo, and Yuxue was smart, so he and Mr. Xue made a decision that when Xue Baobao grew up, he would enter the palace to be selected, and he would watch and help Jia Yuanchun.

When the Xue family arrived at the palace, they happened to bump into Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu and others who came to pay New Year's greetings, so they went in together.

Mrs. Xue admired her brother very much, and she had not seen him for many years. When she saw him from a distance, her eyes turned red. She choked with sobs and quickened her pace. She asked the Xue Pan brothers and sisters to kowtow to Prince Teng.

Wang Ziteng was in his early fifties, with a square face and a tall build. He looked like a powerful military attache.

When Prince Teng saw Mrs.

After some pleasantries, Wang Ziteng asked Jia Baoyu, "Baoyu, why are your mother and your sister Feng not here?"

Wang Xifeng is pregnant, and the month is light, so she can't come over. This is a happy event, easy to talk about, but Mrs. Wang——

Jia Baoyu hurriedly stood up, saluted, and replied stammeringly, "Go back, uncle, madam, madam is sick, sick."

He was not lying. Yesterday, he was frightened by Mrs. Wang and ran all the way back to the Grand View Garden. He hid in his room and cried alone for a long time.

Qingwen, Sheyue and others finally coaxed him to stop crying, served him some snacks, and played dice with him.

Because everyone wanted to make him happy, they decided to let him win. Although Jia Baoyu didn't care about the few copper coins, he was very excited to play.

It was not until dinner time when Jia Mu sent someone to urge him to eat that he suddenly remembered that his mother had just vomited blood.

Moreover, at that time, Mrs. Wang was in the house where Wang Xifeng lived before. There was no maid or mother-in-law, and I don’t know if anyone discovered it——

Jia Baoyu panicked and didn't dare to go himself, so he asked Qingwen to take two little girls to see him.

By the time Qingwen and the two little maids arrived, Mrs. Wang had already passed out and lay on the cold bluestone floor for who knows how long.

Qingwen tried to probe Mrs. Wang's forehead, it was hot!

Qingwen suddenly panicked, and hurriedly sent the little girl to ask two rough women to carry Mrs. Wang back to the house, and then went to ask for the doctor.

The doctor came to see her and said that Mrs. Wang was so angry that she vomited blood. She also did not eat or drink for a long time and suffered from wind and cold, which caused a high fever and she needed to be taken care of.

When Jia's mother heard about it, she ordered the two rough men and women to take good care of her, and strictly ordered Jia Baoyu not to see Mrs. Wang again.

This New Year's disease is really bad luck, but don't pass it on to her golden grandson again!

Wang Ziteng thought that he had already learned from Mrs. Wang that Mrs. Wang was imprisoned by the Jia family for loan sharking, so he tried to test Jia Baoyu first.

At this time, seeing Jia Baoyu's words flashing, he frowned and said displeasedly, "Young Master, you stutter and have an ambiguous attitude. What does it look like? Is it possible that there is another hidden reason behind your mother's illness?"

Jia Baoyu was not good at lying, and now she was completely guilty. When Wang Ziteng exposed her, she became even more nervous and speechless.

Jia Lian didn't look like it, so he stood up and saluted and said, "Uncle, forgive me, the second wife is indeed ill. She has a severe wind and cold and can't get up. Otherwise, she would have come to pay uncle a New Year greeting."

Wang Ziteng looked at Jia Lian intently, "Severe wind and cold? Why is it so windy during the Chinese New Year?"

Jia Lian coughed unconsciously and said, "My nephew doesn't know anything about the second wife. My uncle should ask Baoyu."

Jia Baoyu blushed and stood aside, but had no intention of speaking at all.

Because of his inappropriate words, his mother became angry and vomited blood. Later, just for fun, he left his unconscious mother in the yard and ignored him in this winter.

How could he say such a thing?

Wang Ziteng was displeased and said, "What? It's just a matter of catching wind, is there any hidden secret? Neither of you are willing to tell?"
Okay, since you won't tell me, I'll go and see for myself. Is it possible that if a girl from my Wang family marries your Jia family, I'll have to let your Jia family toss her around? "

Wang Ziteng's words were serious. Jia Lian knelt down quickly. Seeing that Jia Baoyu was still motionless, he hurriedly pulled him.

Jia Baoyu hurriedly knelt down, and Jia Lian whispered, "Baoyu, only you know what happened yesterday. You'd better say it and don't make your uncle angry."

Jia Baoyu couldn't say anything, so Mrs. Xue hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Brother, don't worry, I will go to my sister's house to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow and see for myself. It's just a cold weather, nothing serious."

When Wang Ziteng saw the situation of Jia Lian and the two, he knew that Mrs. Wang was probably really ill and was related to Jia Baoyu.

Jia Baoyu knew that he couldn't do anything big, so it should be fine, so he was slightly relieved.

After hearing what Mrs. Xue said, she dropped the subject and called Wang Xiluan, "Take your sisters, sisters, and brother Huan to Nuange to sit down, listen to books, and eat snacks. Don't neglect it."

Naturally, it was impossible for Jia Zheng to come to Wang's house to pay New Year's greetings in person. Wang Xifeng was pregnant, so today it was Jia Lian who came with Jia Baoyu, Tanchun and Jia Huan.

Wang Xiluan was very obedient in front of Wang Ziteng. He bowed obediently and retreated with Xue Baobao and others.

When they arrived at Nuange, Wang Xiluan also acted very responsibly in front of the host, asking his daughter-in-law to come over to give lectures, and invited everyone to have snacks, so there was no need to be restrained.

Jia Huan rolled his eyes and said, "What's the point of listening to a book? Let's gamble for money?"

Wang Xiluan didn't even look down on Jia Baoyu. How could he look down on him as a concubine? He pretended not to hear and ate snacks with his head down.

Jia Huan said wildly, "I want to bet money, I want to bet money!

When I came to your house, you didn't offer to entertain me well, but simply told me to read some book, and I didn't want it! "

Tanchun quickly stopped, but Jia Huan didn't listen to her, he just kept cheating.

Wang Xiluan pointed at several maids impatiently and disdainfully, "Take him to gamble with you. If the bet is bigger, it won't be enough to get it from my cage.

I want to see how much money the men in Rongguo Mansion have. They come to our house to gamble! "

Jia Huan said shamelessly, "What? When I come to your house, you send a few slaves to gamble with me, and you still want to win my money?"

Wang Xiluan smiled sarcastically at Tanchun. Tanchun was so angry that his eyes were red, but Jia Huan didn't listen to her at all and just kept making noises.

Xue Baobao really couldn't stand it, so he waved to Jia Huan, "Brother Huan, come here. Please accompany us to listen to books, and I'll give you something good to play with."

Jia Huan suddenly became excited, "What good thing?"
