The Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 276 Daiyu is pregnant and the couple is happy
The days of Tanchun are full of flowers, with the "care" of the empress and the "favor" of the emperor, but in fact, only Tanchun can understand the unspeakable grievances behind his back.

If she hadn't had to, she wouldn't have made such a move.The palace is strict and private, if someone finds out that he resells things and leaves the palace, even if the emperor spares him, the concubines who have been eyeing him for a long time will not let go of such a good opportunity.

Doesn't this mean that knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, one prefers to go to the mountains?
Tanchun became more and more resentful that he was not the daughter of the Jia family's direct relatives. If he was like the concubine Yuan, why should he be troubled by a penny?
The servant tried his best to comfort him and said: "Mother, those little eunuchs don't have a gatekeeper. If we speak out, we will die. If it is really impossible, why not ask the fifth prince to help us transport some out. After all, it is the relatives of those years, Your Highness was hugged by you when he was a child, so there is always some old love in it. The servant thinks, no one dares to search out the prince of the palace, right? If the empress is really worried, she will ask the servant to take a few pieces to find out. Said it was the meaning of the empress, but only said that the servant girl wanted to exchange some money. The servant girl and Zhuan'er next to His Highness can still talk."

Tanchun's eyes lit up, and he pulled the waiter, "Are you really willing to do this for me?"

The servant said with a faint smile: "My lady, I will never regret following you. Don't worry, if someone catches you and asks you, the servant will only say that it is your favor and has nothing to do with others."

The servant book is a rare and loyal servant in Jia's family, and Tanchun secretly thought that he was right about his two maids.The waiter is brave and courageous, and his paintings are alert and meticulous. With the two of them by his side, it may not be impossible to walk a smooth road.

From his jewelry box, Tanchun found an unremarkable jadeite [-]-zi bracelet, a white jade inlaid with beads and a jade flat square.Carefully wrapped it in a handkerchief and handed it to the servant: "Use these two things to explore the way and see how Zhuan'er reacts."

Taking advantage of the twilight, the servants quietly went to the East Hall during dinner time in each hall.Be cautious along the way, met two groups of patrolling Ouchi guards, saw her alone as a little maid, and didn't ask much.

Zhuan'er was serving Zhengde's meal, when he saw the little eunuch outside quietly waving his hands at the door, Zhuan'er handed the spoon to the people around him, and left the inner hall by himself.

"Aunt Zhuan'er, Jia Chongyuan's servant girl, sister Shu, wants to see you."

Zhuan'er was taken aback: "Servant?" She didn't have much contact with the Jia family, even when she lived in Rongguo Mansion with the eldest girl, she just embroidered behind closed doors all day long, and she and the girls around the three girls did not have much contact with each other. No big deal.On the contrary, Meilian, sister Mio and Yuanyang have good personal relationships.

The little eunuch knows how to read facial expressions, seeing Zhuan'er's hesitation, he hurriedly smiled and said: "If my aunt is not free, I'll just go back to her."

Zhuan'er hurriedly called the little eunuch to stop: "Forget it, she wouldn't come to see me if it wasn't something important. You just let her sit in the side hall, and I will go over after serving His Highness after eating."

The little eunuch quickly agreed, and quickly ran out to return to his command.

Here, Zhengde finished his dinner and went to Yuntai to give a speech for the Supreme Emperor as usual.Over the past few days, the Taishanghuang's eyes have become worse and worse. Before the sun goes down, he can see things blurry.Zhengde took the initiative to ask Ying to read a short article after dinner every day.The Supreme Emperor was not used to it at first, but the articles read by Zhengde were not boring, they were carefully selected by Xiuyan, picking up those not famous but highly readable notes.Or food reviews, or travel experience, it didn't take long for the emperor to like it.

If one day Zhengde is not free to come, the old man will feel itchy and uncomfortable as if he has lice all over his body.

This kind of thing can't be hidden from others, the eldest prince and the third prince also wanted to have fun, but unfortunately the articles they chose couldn't be too fond of the emperor, and they even fell asleep the old man's chanting, and threw them all on the cloud platform face.

When Zhengde came back from Yuntai in the evening, Zhuan'er retreated from the crowd, and showed him the things sent by Shi Shu: "I see this thing is weird, it seems that I can't get it with the status of Shi Shu, so I kept it first."

Zhengde only put the bracelet of Shibazi in his palm and looked at it carefully. Under the light, the green color is very even.He smiled lightly and said: "It seems that what my sister said is right. Jia Chongyuan's place is already stretched and it's time to pawn things. The Jia family doesn't pay much attention to this concubine daughter!"

Zhengde thought for a while before ordering Zhuaner to put away his things: "Take 200 taels of silver and send it to Baoyue Hall tomorrow morning. Remember, all of them will be replaced with ten taels of small silver ingots. Do you know what to say when you see the servant?"

Zhuan'er smiled: "The maidservant only said to ask the empress to take the emergency first. If the price of the two things is too high, I will naturally make up the rest of the money. If it is not enough, it will be regarded as our Highness's filial piety to the empress." Zhengde listened Stop laughing and say nothing.

Early the next morning, the waiter handed over the money to Tanchun with a pale face: "Your Majesty, what does the Fifth Prince mean?"

Twelve taels of small silver ingots are not big, 200 taels is only enough to fill a small tray.Tanchun looked at the money in a daze, stretched out his hand to take it, but retracted it halfway.

"Take the money." Tanchun's eyes were icy cold, and amidst the secretary's screams, he cut off a gold hairpin that was not often worn with clippers.

Soon, the queen and other concubines heard that Baoyue Palace couldn't get any rewards, so they cut the golden hairpin into sections in a whimsical way, which really embarrassed the royal family.When the emperor heard this, he was displeased, and after that day he never announced Jia Tanchun's bedtime.

It was half a month later when Xiuyan heard about this, she couldn't help but sigh with Daiyu who came to visit: "This kind of decisiveness is not something everyone has. The third girl in your family is a hero among women. It's a pity. Fate is waiting for you." She's being mean."

Daiyu sighed shortly: "Although doing this caused the concubines in the palace to divert their targets, the emperor has completely fallen out of favor. Thinking about the concubine Liu in the Qingqiu Pavilion, is it possible that the third sister will also end up with such a fate in the future? ?”

"Don't worry, the third girl is a smart person. She thinks clearly when to hide her clumsiness and when to stand out. The emperor's love for days may not be without a little truth. In addition, I feel guilty for using the third girl, as long as I make good use of it." , the day of her return to favor is definitely yet to come."

Daiyu smiled wryly: "The intrigue in the palace is indeed beyond the comprehension of an idiot like me."

Xiuyan immediately took Daiyu's hand and said with a smile: "You kind of idiot is suitable for your young master. I see that your face is full of red recently, maybe you are happy?"

Daiyu hesitated for a while, subconsciously covered her stomach with her hands.

Seeing that something was wrong, Xiuyan hurriedly stood up: "Could it be that you really hit the nail on the head?"

Daiyu suffered from weakness when she was in the womb, and when she grew up, her menses were not very accurate.As a wife for the first time, Daiyu was busy with the housekeeping, so she had long forgotten about this matter, and now she was stunned when asked by her elder sister.

Xiuyan couldn't laugh or cry, "Look at your stupidity, you don't care about this kind of thing."

She immediately invited the old nuns supported by the mansion to give her pulse, which was really good news.

"Grandma Lin has only been in the upper body for a month, and there are not enough days. It's normal to not notice it." The old mother smiled and said: "Take care of it, and keep Grandma Lin to give birth to a white and fat child."

This old nanny has also become a spirit, knowing who the girl of the Xing family cares about most.They were taken care of here, although they didn't have to worry about food and clothing, but they felt uneasy. Thinking about Lulu's skills, they asked Xing Jiagao to take a look at them.

Sure enough, Xiuyan told these people to go back with Daiyu at night: "Grandma Lin's daily diet will be entrusted to you from now on, and you will be careful about what you eat and drink. If the mother and child are safe, I will take care of you regardless of whether it is a man or a woman. Thank you aunts."

Daiyu wept with joy, Zijuan also cried, and the girl cried and persuaded: "This is a happy event, grandma should be happy. Who can be as lucky as grandma, who conceived a child as soon as she entered the house, this is all the master He and his wife are blessed by the spirit of heaven!"

When Zijuan talked about her parents, Daiyu cried even harder, but it was still Lu Shi who came to hear the news and persuaded her.

In the evening, Gan Mi came to pick up Daiyu, when he heard about this, he stood in a daze at the entrance of the flower hall.Lu Shi waved his hands in front of his eyes: "This is a fool!" Everyone in the room laughed.During the meal, Gan Mi peeled shrimps and picked vegetables for Daiyu, and Daiyu stared at Ganmi in shame in front of the room full of people.

Gan Mi didn't seem to notice it, he knew that Daiyu liked to eat boiled dried shredded silk, so he even got up, put the plate of dried shredded shredded rice in front of Daiyu cheekily, and kept persuading her to eat more.

This dried silk is a famous dish in Suzhou, and the cooks in the Xing family's house are very good at it.Cut the refined dried tofu into soft and white shreds, and cook it with more than ten kinds of fresh raw materials such as ham, buffalo beef, fresh pork, shiitake mushrooms, black fungus, fresh bamboo shoots, mustard slices, and carrot slices.Pre-boil the marinade and drizzle it on the dried shreds, which is full of color, fragrance and taste.

Xiao Xiluan loves this dish the most and often eats it at home, but it is not as good as her uncle's.So when the Zhang family lived in the Xing family, this dish must be on the table.

Xiao Xiluan watched her "dinner on the plate" being snatched away, she pursed her mouth, and pretended to cry, Daiyu hurriedly put the plate back to the distance, and kicked Ganmi hard under the table .

Gan Mi laughed awkwardly, but since then she has offended Xiao Xiluan.

This matter has almost become a funny joke, and Meilian and others kept talking about it when they were tidying up the bed at night.

But Xiuyan said: "You are only watching the jokes, but you can't understand the feelings of the two of them. Needless to say, Daiyu lost her parents since she was young. Although there is an old lady in Jia's house to take care of her, her aunt Wang is always in trouble. I know what it's like to live under someone's fence. As for Ganmi, is it more comfortable to live with my grandfather than with my parents? It's just a matter of people's winks. Both of them are looking forward to having their own home. Fortunately, the Bodhisattva blessed Daiyu's heart. Make it happen."

Meilian and the others were silent when they heard the words, and when they saw Ganmi again, they were more respectful and less joking.

The news of Daiyu's pregnancy was immediately sent to each family. Mother Jia brought her daughters-in-law to see her, and quietly gave Daiyu a century-old ginseng plant that Jia Min honored her back then.Both Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang have their own expressions, but the carelessness can be seen from the things.

On the contrary, Wang Xifeng, who was about to give birth, heard that she not only sent Ping'er to congratulate her, but also brought the doll clothes she sewed by herself.

You know, Wang Xifeng's steward is a good hand, but she is a layman on this knitting girl.
