Gourmet Red Chamber: A Chronicle of Baochai's Rebirth

Chapter 38 Defilement
The Xue family was laughing and laughing, but Jia's house was full of storms. The reason was very simple, Jia Baoyu was sick.

The doctor said that it was because of excessive worrying and wind evil entering the body, which caused the high fever to persist.

Jia's house moved up and down, and there was an endless stream of people who came to visit.

Mother Jia dismissed all orders, leaving only Wang Xifeng to speak, crying, "It's really an enemy. I have been raised by my side since I was a child. I don't dare to make mistakes, but I always suffer from three disasters and five diseases. Call me an old lady." How to live!"

Wang Xifeng repeatedly tried to persuade her, but Jia's mother scolded the waiter again, "The whole room is full of food and no work! Men don't know how to be careful when they go out, they just know how to bicker and fight, which will bring disaster to all good men!"

The attackers did not dare to argue, but knelt on the ground and wept.

Wang Xifeng looked at the slaves kneeling on the floor and felt that it was not the case, so she advised, "Old lady, this kid has a headache and a fever. It's normal, but it doesn't necessarily mean that the person he is serving is careless.

Brother Bao is sick now, so he must not be used to changing people suddenly, and they need to serve him, so he just needs to make up for his mistakes."

That's all for Jia's mother, and ask Xiren and others to go back and take care of them. If Jia Baoyu is not good, none of them can live like this.

When Jiamu got angry, Mrs. Wang just sat down with her eyelids drooping and twisted the beads. After Jiamu sent the attacker away, she got up and said, "Mother, I'm going to see Baoyu."

Jia Mu nodded hurriedly, "Go quickly, I don't need you to serve me here. It's only proper to take good care of Baoyu."

Mrs. Wang went to Jia Baoyu's room, but instead of going to see Jia Baoyu, she called the attacker to question him.

Xiren didn't dare to hide it, so he told what happened last night, crying and complaining about his grievances, "Ma'am, the first time we met, Miss Lin sent the servant away, and the servant really doesn't know what Miss Lin said to that idiot Second Master.

The wife also knows that the second master is the most sincere, how can he stand a few words from Miss Lin, and shout that he will die as soon as he goes out, but now he is even more ill, doesn't it make the wife anxious? "

Mrs. Wang didn't like Lin Daiyu in the first place, and she said bitterly after hearing this, "I knew there was a reason! Even I can't get Lin Daiyu's tongue-in-cheek, let alone Baoyu?"

After scolding for a while, she told the attacker to be careful, and went to see Jia Baoyu. Seeing that his fever had subsided, she was relieved and went to look for Jia's mother again.

Jia's mother was already amused by Wang Xifeng, and she was lying on the couch and asking the servant girl to beat her legs, while Wang Xifeng was sitting on the cot beside the couch, chatting and laughing with her.

After paying her respects, Mrs. Wang pretended not to care and said, "Baoyu's fever has subsided, and she just woke up to drink water, calling her sister Lin.

Feng girl, do you know that Tanchun and Xiangyun have all come to see Baoyu, why sister Lin hasn't come yet? "

She had just found out that Lin Daiyu had gone to Xue's house, but she said so on purpose, in order to make Jia's mother angry at Lin Daiyu for Jia Baoyu's illness.

Wang Xifeng was in charge of the family, and naturally knew that Lin Daiyu had left the house, but she just smiled and said, "She must be still studying, maybe she didn't even get the news.

It's not that my aunt doesn't know that among the girls in the family, sister Lin is the most serious, and she won't be able to delay for a while.

If our Second Master could have half of Sister Lin, I would have become a servant by now! "

Jia Mu laughed and scolded, "You are a hothead. If you praise your sister Lin, you will praise your sister Lin. Then you bring up what your father is doing. If you look carefully, he will know and beat you!"

How could Mrs. Wang tolerate Wang Xifeng and changed the subject after a few words of ridicule, and then said, "But it doesn't look like it. I heard from the girls that Baoyu came back from Lin Yatou last night and was talking about how Lin Yatou is now alone with Bao Yatou. I just ignored her and kept talking about her for half the night!"

Mother Jia smiled, "What do you mean? Why is Daiyu involved again?"

Mrs. Wang hurriedly pretended to be terrified, bowed her head and saluted, "The daughter-in-law doesn't know about it, and the maids just listened to Baoyu's nagging.

It was said that Baoyu went to wait for Miss Lin last night for a long time, but Miss Lin sent away the waiter, and she didn't know what to say, and when she came back, the idiot refused to sleep, and started to have a fever in the middle of the night.

I thought that a heart ailment would require a heart medicine doctor, so I had to ask Lin Yatou what she said, which touched that idiot's heart again! "

Mrs. Wang couldn't help shedding tears when she said this, "Zhu'er left cruelly, and all I have left is such a wicked person, I really dare not be careless!"

Jiamu shifted her gaze from staring at her, and said indifferently, "It's normal for a child to have a headache and brain fever, but you think so much. You'd be ashamed to mention Pearl. If you were willing to spend money on Pearl back then, you are now With half of Baoyu's thoughts, Zhu'er will not go there early."

Mrs. Wang was stunned, subconsciously raised her head to look at Jia Mu, and what she saw was Jia Mu's warning and slightly disgusted eyes.

She was warning her not to talk about Lin Daiyu indiscriminately!

An orphan girl who suppresses her mother, she just looks at her like a ball in her eyes, and she always wants to dump her to Baoyu!

She had only spoken a few words of the truth, and she was more and more blaming her for Pearl's death!
Wang Xifeng was still there, and with so many maids standing beside her, she didn't care about her dignity at all!

Mrs. Wang was so angry that she burst into tears, but she didn't dare to speak at all, she just covered her mouth and cried softly.

Wang Xifeng hurriedly smoothed things over, Jiamu snorted and said to Wang Xifeng, "You are a good person, Lian'er also knows how to love my sister.

Go back and have a good talk with Lian'er, in a family like ours, girls are more valuable than boys.

He cherishes his younger sisters now, and when the younger sisters leave the cabinet, he will miss his mother's family.

If you have too much money, take out some to have fun with your sisters. You don’t have to stare at them like a black-eyed chicken every day. If you eat or drink a little more, you don’t have the demeanor of a big man! "

Wang Xifeng didn't know that Jia's mother was using Jia Lian to mock Mrs. Wang's meanness to Lin Daiyu, but she was able to apologize with a smile, and repeatedly promised to search Lian Er's private house for money to buy flowers and clothes for her younger sisters.

Of course Mrs. Wang could hear it. She was so angry that she almost wanted to tear open Jia Mu's old face, but she didn't even dare to cry. She hung her head tightly, for fear that Jia Mu would see the resentment on her face. It's time for another meal.

Jia Mu was really too lazy to look at her like that, so she snorted again, "Okay, don't wait on me, it's serious to guard Baoyu."

Mrs. Wang had no choice but to resign in humiliation.

……

……

Wang Xifeng always did things quickly, so when she had some free time, she asked her son to go out and buy the latest flowers on the market.

After buying the flowers, she ordered someone to send some to the You family and the Qin family in Dongfu. After asking about Lin Daiyu's return, she went to deliver them to Lin Daiyu herself.

Wang Xifeng did not belong to Zhou Rui's family, and she was the first one to give it to Lin Daiyu after being told by Jia's mother. She even sent a box directly, and said to Lin Daiyu, "This is a palace-made flower made of yarn. It is worthless and rare. Xinqiao looks good, it is most suitable for a little girl of your age."

Lin Daiyu then asked, "Did you get it from Sister Bao?"

Wang Xifeng laughed, "I don't know why the two of you hit it off, no matter what, you should always think about her first!"

Lin Daiyu smiled, "She misses me all the time, so naturally I have to miss her all the time, otherwise who am I?"

Wang Xifeng joked a few more words, then said about Jia Baoyu's illness, and then asked tentatively, "Why did I hear in a daze that the girl in Brother Bao's room said it was my sister, and you are thinking that Baoyu is ill?"

Lin Daiyu was taken aback for a moment, then sneered, "But I also know, it's not some girl, it's just what the attacker said."

Wang Xifeng somehow got involved with Xiren again, and when she asked again, Lin Daiyu refused to speak, and said with red eyes, "Sister Feng, I know you love me so that you can let me breathe, but you even spent a lot of money to send me a box of flowers." , I depend on others, and others can say whatever they want, and Sister Feng doesn't have to complain about me."

Hearing this, Wang Xifeng didn't seem like much, and hurriedly comforted her, "My sister is an outlier when she says this. Since the old lady picked up her sister, the old lady and I have stopped talking about it in our house. From Second Master Lian to Baoyu, Who doesn’t treat his sister as his biological sister?”

Lin Daiyu is getting more and more angry. It doesn't matter if the old lady treats her well. Now in this house, even a maid can arrange and discredit herself!
This is what she heard, what she didn't hear behind it?

They don't know how to spoil her yet!
Wang Xifeng was afraid that she would hurt herself from crying, and she would get sick later, which would be even more troublesome, so she sighed, "Sister, don't cry, I'm stupid, I don't know how to persuade people, so I have to invite your sister Bao."

Lin Daiyu stopped crying when she heard this, and said with a sob, "What are you doing bothering her again this late at night? I just stop crying."

Wang Xifeng laughed out loud, "You look like Niu Niu, no matter how hard you cry, when you mention Sister Bao, you will be fine immediately."

Lin Daiyu was embarrassed by her smile and pushed her to leave quickly, "It's getting late. Niuniu will cry again if she can't find you. I'm already fine. You can go back quickly."

Wang Xifeng stood up and warned, "Then don't cry anymore, it will hurt your body. If you ask me, you should learn more from your sister Bao. When something happens, hit her back when you need to, and scold her when you need to. If you scold me back, then let's deal with it as you should. If you keep it in your heart every day, what good will it do besides hurting yourself and worrying the people who love you?"

Lin Daiyu saw that what she said was straightforward, but it turned out to be a wise and famous saying, and she was taught awe-inspiringly. After Wang Xifeng left, she thought about what she said in her heart countless times, and did not fall asleep until dawn.

Besides, after Wang Xifeng came out from Lin Daiyu's place, she went to send flowers to Sanchun, then returned home, and waited for a long time before she met the drunk Jia Lian.

Wang Xifeng looked angry and couldn't help scolding.

Jia Lian blushed and shouted with staring eyes, "Men, you're just drinking a few glasses of wine outside, and you're just chattering, don't you understand the rules!"

Wang Xifeng got even angrier, and cursed, "You hang out in Dongfu every day, or you go to those dirty places with your cronies, and you blame me for being long-winded!"

Jia Lian said triumphantly, "My lord is going out to socialize in a serious way today, what an indecent place, he is drunk!"

Zui Ba Xian is the largest and most luxurious restaurant in the capital. A meal of food and drinks costs hundreds of taels of silver. Most of the people who go there are dignitaries, but it is not a sleazy place.

Wang Xifeng was suspicious, "Where did you invite someone to drink?"

It seems that Lian Er still has some private money hidden that she doesn't know about!
Although Jia Lian was drunk, he still had some rationality, and hurriedly denied, "How can I afford to go to such a place! It was Xue Da fool who was drinking there, just happened to meet me passing downstairs, and called me to go up together."

Wang Xifeng was even more suspicious, "Brother Pan? Didn't you say last time that Brother Pan is very cautious, and he is also tight when it comes to money, why would you go to such a place?"

Jia Lian was even more proud, "Speaking out will scare you to death! It turned out that Yu Xin, the guard in Jinyi, and Mr. He Langzhong from the household department made an appointment to go there for a drink, and accidentally bumped into Xue Dafool.

Xue Dafool ​​actually met Yu Qianshi and He Langzhong when he was in Jiangnan, so he made an appointment to go together!
Did you hear that?It's Yu Xin, Yu Qian's business! "

Although Wang Xifeng was in her boudoir, she had already heard about the name of Miss Yu Xin and Yu Mei, so she hurriedly asked, "Is that Yu Qian really as beautiful as the rumors say?"
