The eldest son of the red mansion

Jia Mu had already received the report and sent Yuanyang to wait for them at the door.

When Yuanyang saw them coming, she quickly saluted Jia Ke and the others, and then said with a smile: "The old lady has been waiting inside for a long time, so I let the slaves come to welcome the masters."

So everyone entered Jia Mu's main room together.As soon as the crowd entered the main room, Mother Jia greeted her and saw Xiangyun, she went over immediately, took her hand and sat together on the soft couch in the middle, holding her in her arms and weeping non-stop.

When Shi Xiangyun saw the old lady, he also felt that his relatives were in her arms, crying out of breath.It was as if he wanted to cry out all the grievances he had suffered during this time.

But Jia Ke and Shi Nai stood there, feeling very embarrassed. After all, in this matter, the two of them seemed to be using this weak woman to buy and sell official positions.

Jia's mother and Shi Xiangyun cried for a while, and then put away their tears.

Shi Nai stepped forward and said, "Auntie, I'm leaving in a few days. Send Xiangyun to the house now, and in the future, Auntie will be in charge of Xiangyun's and eldest brother's affairs."

After hearing this, Mother Jia showed a smile in her eyes, but her face was still frosty, "Poor little girl of our family, you sent me here at a young age. I don't know how many sins I will have to suffer in the future. When Jia Mu said this, she began to cry again.

After listening to Jia Mu's words, Shi Xiangyun felt that the words touched his heart.I also feel that Mother Jia, who has been here, knows what I'm thinking, but she can't control her own marriage after all, so she can only let the random marriage below.

At this time, Jia Ke felt that he had already said a few words, "Don't worry, old lady, I will treat sister Xiangyun well when she comes to our house in the future. Besides, with the old lady watching, what can I do to her?" ?”

Then Mother Jia began to mourn again, and said to Jia Ke, "I'm watching you, you can remember this sentence, if you treat Xiangyun badly in the future, how will I deal with you?"

Shi Xiangyun sat on the side still with tears on his face, as if what they were talking about was not his own.She still hasn't accepted the fact that she wants to be a concubine.

Seeing Shi Xiangyun like this, Jia's mother knew that she couldn't accept it for a while, but after staying for a while, she would accept her fate if she thought about it.

"Who are the maids serving Xiangyun, let them come in and I will see them."

After a while, Cui Ling came in from the outside. She tremblingly came to Jia's mother and saluted her.

Jia Mu looked at Cui Ling and thought she looked pretty good, "Is this the only maid? Isn't she a little thin?"

Mrs. Zhang, who was standing next to her, had the chance to speak at this time, "Don't be surprised, old lady. The family has been experiencing some difficulties these years, so the maids of the masters have been reduced and reduced."

After Mrs. Zhang said this, thinking about the hard days she lived in the past, her eyes turned red.

Mother Jia nodded after hearing this, and didn't say anything, but turned to Yuanyang next to her and said, "Didn't we train a few little girls in the room? Which one do you think is better? Let's give it to Girl Yun."

Yuanyang stood there thinking for a while, and then returned to Jia Mu and said, "These maids, I think Qingwen is the most refreshing. If she is allowed to serve Miss Shi, I think it will be good."

After hearing this, Jia Mu nodded and said, "Qingwen, I think she is very good. She can't talk about needlework as well as her. She thought she could be used by Baoyu in the future. Now that Yun girl is here, let her serve Yun girl." Let's go." Then let Yuanyang go out and bring Qingwen in.

Chapter 474 Residence

After hearing Jia Mu's order, Yuanyang immediately left the room, and after a while, Yuanyang brought in a beautiful little girl.

It was the first time Jia Ke saw Qingwen, so she looked her up and down.I saw that although she was still young, her appearance was no worse than that of Lin Daiyu and others.

No wonder Shi Xiangyun compares Qingwen and Lin Daiyu in Dream of the Red Chamber.

Qingwen already felt that someone was staring at her, so she raised her head and met Jia Ke's eyes.If it was any other girl, she would have bowed her head in shame at this time, who would have thought that Qingwen not only did not bow her head when she saw Jia Ke, but gave him a hard look, and then turned her face away.

Jia Ke couldn't help laughing inwardly, admiring what a handsome hot girl she is.

Yuanyang and Qingwen came to Jia Mu and saluted Jia Mu together.

Jia's mother glanced at Qingwen, smiled and said to Shi Xiangyun next to her, "This girl is a good girl, and I will stay with you now. It can be regarded as a care for you."

After listening to Jia Mu's words, Shi Xiangyun looked Qingwen up and down, and saw that although she was handsome, there was a kind of arrogance in her eyebrows and eyes, which was different from that of the maids beside her.

Shi Xiangyun was a little worried, this girl was so arrogant, she might have big thoughts, who might be on her mind.But she couldn't refuse what Jia Mu gave her.

Shi Xiangyun stood up from his seat, wished Jia Mu a blessing, and said, "The old lady's vision is indeed good. I think this girl is also refreshing, and my temper is also right. From now on, just follow me."

When Jia's mother heard that Xiangyun praised her vision, she was very happy, and said to Qingwen who was kneeling on the ground: "You girl, you are the best among so many people. Now I let you serve the eldest girl." , you do your best, and I will give you a result when the time comes."

Qingwen looked at Jia Mu in surprise, she didn't understand what Jia Mu meant and what result she wanted for herself.Could it be that he wanted to be merciful and let him go out of the house.

But Mother Jia didn't continue to explain to her, but said to the mandarin duck next to her, "Qingwen and Xiangyun's girl just now will be counted according to the big girl's share from today onwards. And Xiangyun's monthly money will be calculated according to Daiyu's." Just give an example."

Yuanyang agreed beside her, and then returned to stand beside Jia Mu again.

Yuanyang stood for a while, and seeing that Jiamu had no other orders, she asked softly beside her: "Old lady, where is Miss Shi's residence arranged? Is it a villa in the yard, or is it arranged in our mansion?" A small courtyard."

Jia thought for a while, Xiangyun is still young, and it may take a few years before he can have a garden with Jia Ke. It is not good to keep them too close now, so it is better to put them in the Grand View Garden and let her and her sisters be together. Playing together can also crowd out the troubles in her heart.

"Xiangyun is still young, she just wants to play with the sisters in the garden, let her live in the Rose Garden." Jia Mu immediately arranged Shi Xiangyun's place to live.

When Shi Xiangyun heard that he was arranged in the Rose Garden, he also began to feel happy.She has lived in Rongguo Mansion a few times before, and each time she lived with others, and never had her own courtyard, so she now has her own nest.

Although the living place is considered spacious, it is always a little inconvenient. Now that Mother Jia has arranged a villa for herself, it can be regarded as a little settled in the future.

"Since Xiangyun lives in Qiangwei Courtyard, these two maids can't do it in such a big courtyard. After you're done, tell Sister Feng to match the little maid and the mother-in-law. Don't wrong us Xiangyun." Jia's mother now treats Shi Xiangyun like any other granddaughter. When Shi Xiangyun came, Jia's mother didn't care about her as much as she does now.

There are three reasons for this. One is that Shi Xiangyun is just the grandniece of Jia's mother, and she is one level inferior to other girls.

Jia’s mansion is a paradise for Xiangyun. There are so many young sisters who can play together, but they are not self-confident. Long, so Xiangyun was not given a separate place.

The second is that Xiangyun and Jia Baoyu often accompanied each other when they were young, and now they both live in the garden. If Shi Xiangyun was given a villa alone, they would communicate with each other in private. Lord Hou complained.It's better to let her get along with others, this way it's considered fair and aboveboard, and others won't be able to say anything weird.

The third is that Xiangyun has a bold personality, so he didn't worry about it, and never asked Jia Mu privately for it. Besides, Xiangyun likes to be lively, so he didn't set up a special place for her. Instead, he let her live with whoever she likes. In the past, when Jia's mother asked Sister Feng to set up another place for Xiangyun to live with her, Xiangyun insisted on refusing, and only wanted to live with Baochai.

Now Xiangyun's identity is different from before, no matter what, he can be regarded as a member of Jia's family.From Jia Ke's point of view, there is absolutely no reason for her to live with others.

That's why Mother Jia arranged a place for her to live in, and provided her with all the maids and wives, treating her equally with other girls.

Jia Ke heard that Mother Jia's arrangement was very thoughtful, so she stood up quickly, "Thank you for taking care of me, old lady, and I'm here to thank you on behalf of Xiangyun."

When Shi Xiangyun heard Jia Ke's words, he squinted at him, then immediately lowered his head, and she blushed again.Although Shi Xiangyun didn't want to be a concubine, there was nothing he could do about it. Jia Ke would be her closest relative in this life, and now hearing him protect her felt a little heartwarming.

"Okay, since the arrangement has been made, everyone can relax. Yuanyang, you should send someone to tell Feng girl now, and ask her to clean up the rose courtyard immediately, and see when people can live in it. During this period, let Xiang Yun stays in my inner room." Then Jia Mu arranged for Xiangyun to live temporarily.

Shi Xiangyun was not dissatisfied with this arrangement, she also lived in Jia Mu's room before.Now live again, do not feel any embarrassment.

Yuanyang listened to Jia Mu's order, agreed and went out.

Jia Zheng, Jia Ke and others saw that the work was over, so they invited Shi Nai to the front hall for a drink.Shi Nai readily accepted their invitation, so the three left and went to the front.

When the three of them came to the front, Jia Zheng immediately ordered a banquet to be arranged, and soon a banquet was set up in the side room of Rongxi Hall.

So the three of them sat down and started talking about everything while drinking.

Mainly, Shi Nai asked Jia Ke if he had any orders for going to Yangzhou this time.Because Shi Nai clearly knew where his status came from, now he asked clearly so that he could serve Jia Ke faithfully even if he went to Yangzhou in the future.

Jia Ke said with a smile: "Uncle this time going to Yangzhou, there is no need to have any other scruples. Those people in Yandao and Hedao Yamen don't have to have anything to do with them. These two places are messed up everywhere. I will rectify them sooner or later. Don't get involved, uncle."

Shi Nai also understood what Jia Ke meant. Now that these two places are probably the emperor or the overlord, how can Jia Ke rest assured?

"In that case, I will obey the order."
