Baoyu Fights the Red Chamber

Thanks to everyone's misery, her third brother's family was the servant who was betrayed. The old lady was crying to death, but the man and mother-in-law forced her to excuse the second master Bao among the servants.

Her mother-in-law, Nanny Lai, was a solitary refugee taken by the Jia family before the war. Later, she won the favor of the old lady who was still the great-grandson's wife, and became a close maid. She is the first-class decent old woman in the house.Her father-in-law, Laizi, is also an orphan, and Nanny Lai only gave birth to Lai Da.

Lai Da is now the chief manager of the Rong Mansion, and his wife is the housekeeper in the old lady's yard. As soon as their children were born, the old lady gave Enyan a certificate of life.Therefore, don't look at the number of servants surnamed Lai in the Ningrong Second Mansion, and the only serious relatives of Lai are the in-laws.Now Lai Nanny's family doesn't care about it, only Lai Da's daughter-in-law suffers.

Lai everyone knows very well that her third brother is a mess, relying on the trust of the old lady of her brother-in-law's family, he walks around in the house.Before Baoyu brothers and sisters beat the offender ten boards, she felt that it was light, and said with a smile in front of the old lady: "Ten boards are too few, and they all eat and drink for free in the yard of the second master Lian without doing anything. Why don't you beat more boards?" , maybe you will know the severity."

Never thought that Second Master Bao would sell all these thorns, or sell them with the whole family!His hands and feet were so fast, he started his hands in the middle of the night, but he didn't even hear a cry.The next day, Second Master Bao said, "It's all sold to a black kiln." She "passed out" on the spot, and planned to use the fainting to go home and try to get the third brother's family back from Ren Yazi.Fortunately, with this thought, anyone who asked questions or pleaded for mercy was immediately arrested and sold by the whole family, regardless of the loyalty and service of several lifetimes.

Everyone Lai doesn't hate Second Master Bao, but only hates that Grandma Zhu can't control the little masters, and taking care of the girls is just a show on weekdays, but now she is the other way around and listens to her uncle and sister-in-law who are [-] or [-] years old.And don't say that the girls who don't go out of the door and don't go out of the door are the second master Bao. How can they know the importance at an age that they don't understand?I'm afraid I don't even know where the black kiln is!That black kiln never goes out, not to mention Lai's family, Ningrong Second House is also unable to recruit people from the black kiln.People in the world only know the name of "black kilns", and where are the black kilns in different places.

She thought it was impossible, and probably sold the coal mines. Shanxi coal mines collapsed from time to time, but when they collapsed, countless people died, and coolies were required all year round.But her husband's family didn't allow her to look for her. The mother-in-law said, "Let's assume that your brother's family died unexpectedly! Don't say that your third brother is a criminal slave, and he is not. It is only natural for the master's family to sell slaves. Our family went to the coal mine to fish for people, and we risked our lives to fight with the master's family. Is it right?"

She was not reconciled, but she really didn't dare to move. Now the family lives in a building and a living room, and uses gold slaves and silver maidservants, but she is still a slave at root.There is also his eldest son, Lai Shangrong, who reads and writes like a little son. Although his wife was a slave and could not take the imperial examination, he took the examination of the pen and post official. At the age of 20, he donated his future. It's an official.Officials now appoint officials in an eclectic manner, and their own children are planning to be selected and sent to prefectures and counties as officials.Bao Erye said "my senior brother is in the official department", and his family was detained to death. He didn't ask Bao Erye to use his strength, but he asked not to fight back.

In this way, when I came to Jia Mu, everyone's one is one, the other is two, and I dare not say too much.

Mother Jia was so shocked that she was powerless and ordered her to go down.She retreated to the door, and finally couldn't help but ran back and knelt down and begged: "I beg the old lady to be merciful! The third younger brother of the slave is an idiot and should have been punished. The only request of the slave is to expel all of the slave's natal family from the house, or send him to death!" Go to Jinling to guard the grave, at least let them have a good death..."

Mother Jia thought to herself that if you kick out your mother's family, it will be over?What about old relatives in Manfu?

She couldn't help sighing: "Which family doesn't have a bad relative? Your mother, brother, sister-in-law and nephew are all good, let me think about it."

The old lady only asked one of her confidantes, she was in such a bad mood, and she didn't have the energy to "think about it", so she simply called the mandarin ducks to ask questions.

Yuanyang is the son of a family, the mother is deaf and the father is clumsy, she guards the old house in Jinling, only she is decent in front of the old lady in the whole family, the brother and sister-in-law entered the old lady's yard with her blessing, the elder brother worked as a comprador for a fat job, and was not in the mansion when the incident happened The sister-in-law is the head of the laundry room, and she played cards with the laundry maid who did not work, and was beaten ten boards.

Yuanyang's sister-in-law lacked the courage of Lai's brother-in-law, and she didn't dare to scold her, so she was not betrayed by the whole family.In private, her sister-in-law complained to her sister-in-law. Yuanyang is so smart that she would not complain to the old lady for her sister-in-law who committed a crime.

The mandarin ducks are in charge of Jiamu's cage, and there is a lot of turmoil in the mansion. She guards the house and does not come out, but she can't "know nothing", so she said two things that had to be said: the silly elder sister broke things and was sent back by Xiangyun Do chores (the old lady is in the courtyard, she doesn't know how to set the board); when she enters the painting, she does something wrong (I don't know what it is), Xichun drives her back to Ningfu (Xichun greets Jia Mu in spring, and there are two big maids around her. , the old lady was tired and did not pay attention, she could not fail to see).

Mother Jia didn't take it to heart, how could the silly elder sister serve the girl?Xiangyun sent her back when she was fresh.She didn't like the painting before, because it belonged to Ningfu, and she pretended to be Xichun's big maid.It's just right to pick another one for Xichun, Xichun will follow Daiyu to learn the rules from the mother of the palace, Qiuwen is a little short, and must add a big girl who can support the situation.

Thinking of her granddaughter and granddaughter, Jia's mother is in a much better mood.Xichun's status is not low, her great-grandfather is the Duke of the State, her grandfather is the Earl, her father is a two-list Jinshi, and a first-rank general. Who can say that Xichun will not marry as well as Daiyu in the future?The Lin family was just a Marquis, the first Marquis and the last Marquis descended to the rank of Marquis, Lin Ruhai was only a third rank before he was posthumously conferred, not as good as Jia Jing.Then there is Yuan Chun, who lives in the concubine of the harem. When he was concubine, his father was a member of the fifth-rank industry department, and now he is a fifth-rank official without a real job. How can he compare with Xichun's father?

Jia's mother is convinced that the girls she has trained will be promising, and she is even more troubled by Baoyu's leak.Of course, her golden grandson was just confused when she was young, and it was Li Shi who was serious and damned!Don't blame Mrs. Wang for looking down on Mrs. Li. It took only ten days of hard work to manage the family with such a big loophole.Wang Shi is even more hateful, Li Shi is her eldest daughter-in-law, she should know best that Li Shi can't stand up to troubles and keep silent!Baoyu is her son, and a mother is not in a hurry when such a big incident happened, she pretends to be unconscious in front of the concubine's coffin every day!

There was no way out, she thought that she was the only one who was sick, and the leak was too big, even if Wang reported his illness and returned to the government, he might not be able to make up for it.

She couldn't help but miss her eldest grandson-in-law, sister-in-law Feng. If Feng was around, she wouldn't have to worry much.I hate that Lian Er is incompetent. From the first month to April, he still hasn't brought his daughter-in-law back to the house!Then I thought of Jin Sun Baoyu, although he made a big mistake, he was brave and tolerant. In the future, it would be nice if there was a meticulous wife by his side to give some advice. I hate the foolish woman Wang who insists on marrying Baoyu to a daughter of a scholarly family , one Lee is not enough?Could it be that she just wants a submissive daughter-in-law like Li's who can't manage the family?This kind of power greed, a 50-year-old person still can't give up the power of housekeeping, and he doesn't think about not having a daughter-in-law to help him, and he will die of exhaustion sooner or later!

After a sleepless night, Jiamu passed out in front of the coffin the next day.This time it's true, I can't help dozing off.After a good night's sleep, she continued to question Lin Zhixiao's family and other confidantes after returning home.

Two days later, the Empress Dowager made a decree not to allow Mrs. Jia to enter the palace again: it is unlucky for the eighth old woman to die in the palace, and all officials will criticize the royal family for being unkind.

Originally, the Ministry of Rites waited for Mother Jia to report her own illness, and all the old ladies in their sixties and seventies reported their illnesses except her. Mrs. Jia insisted on not reporting her illness, so she had to alert the Queen Mother.Otherwise, after the 21-day sacrifice, Mrs. Jia will follow the spirit to the imperial mausoleum in Xiaoci County. There are not so many imperial doctors on the way to serve the imperial orders.

Jia's mother, Feng Yi, aimed to rest at home, and after she had figured out how to make up for the omission, she called her stupid grandson-in-law Li to talk.

For stupid people, unless they are as stupid as the stupid big sister, generally stupid, Jia's mother will not treat them the most, and asks with a cold face: "Are all the servants really sold to a black brothel?"

Li Wan replied, "Yes. Second Uncle Lian left it to Second Uncle Bao's informant."

Mother Jia was stunned.It is said that Lai did not hunt for people, but went to find them himself, but there was no trace of them.She was still puzzled, how did Baoyu do it?It was the informant left behind by Lian Er, who didn't know the importance!

"Sell to black kilns" is something people talk about on weekdays, but it is actually breaking the law. Only officials can buy and sell people.

It's just that if you really have the ability to sell it to a black brothel, no one can find it, so you can't pursue it.However, the subordinates Baoyu sold had relatives and old friends, and they all knew that "Second Master Bao didn't have a body contract document in his hand, so he just sold people like this."Selling slaves without deed documents is called "smuggling people", a felony.If the owner who holds the contract pursues it, he will be punished by decapitation!Of course, it is impossible for my own family to pursue the matter, but the servants kept their mouths open and Baoyu's reputation was completely ruined when word spread.

Now there is no uproar, because no one believes that Baoyu really has the ability to sell people into black kilns.Because they couldn't find it in the dental shop, they thought that Baoyu just transferred people to other places and locked them up, so they didn't dare to make trouble, otherwise the mistresses would be annoyed, and they really sold it!

After a long time, Mother Jia asked again: "Where do those masked people from outside the mansion come from?"

Li Wan was embarrassed: "My grandson didn't ask Second Uncle Bao. This...you don't need to ask, right? It's just those few."

Mother Jia snorted, and she asked in vain: Everyone is wearing a mask for fear of being recognized, so who else could it be?It is nothing more than the servant of Xue Pan, the head of the Xue family who was supported by Lian Er, the servant of Jia Qiang who was helped by Jia Zhen to open the house, the servant of Jia Yun who became rich overnight because of marrying Xiaohong, and maybe the black-hearted antique dealer. , Zhou Rui's son-in-law Leng Zixing's servants... There are hundreds of strong men and rough women at any gathering, but the dignified Rong Mansion actually makes these foreign slaves make trouble.

Li Wan lowered his head and said in a mosquito voice: "Granddaughter-in-law, grandson-daughter-in-law... I have something to report."

"Say!" Mother Jia said angrily, "Speak louder! I'm blind and deaf, so I didn't know that you have such great ability. You brought a few girls and boys to poke a big hole in the sky. You have to see how big the hole is! "

Li Wan didn't plead guilty and didn't justify himself. He talked about the sachet case in a trembling voice, and Xichun was thrown into the painting.Don't look at her who doesn't talk much on weekdays, she has been tortured by Mrs. Wang for so many years, and she has a sister-in-law like Sister Feng, and she has already left her teacher for eye medicine.

In her narration, the thing is like this: there is no debris in the main hall of Xiaoguanzhuang, and the dust is swept once every morning. The silly elder sister ran in to play by chance, and picked up the Ten Brocade Spring Scent Sachet.It just so happened that it was exactly when Xichun was returning to the village after his inspection tour.So Xichun saw the pickled things, and Xiangyun also saw it.When Xichun saw the sachet, her expression changed drastically, she turned around and copied the lotus root to the Xiangxie, and dug out men's clothes and many gold and silver pouches from the painting cage.What a coincidence, You Shi happened to come over.The aunt and sister-in-law had a big quarrel, Youshi said that the things in the painting box were rewarded by Uncle Zhen to his elder brother, Xichun believed that her brother and sister-in-law were plotting against her, so she couldn't help but push him away...

I don't know if it's because Li Wan's level of eye drops is not good enough in front of Jia's mother. The old lady accurately judged that the insignificant painting was involved, and the Ning Mansion has nothing to do with the sachet case.

She put on her glasses and looked carefully at the sachet, and asked who were cleaning the main hall.

There are nearly three hundred servants in Xiaoguanzhuang and Hemerocallis Yard (each girl's small courtyard has about ten or 20 servants). Even though Li Wan is the mistress who disciplines the girls, she can't recognize them all. She just did her homework when cleaning the main hall. , Six women in their 40s and 20s who specialize in sweeping dust, eight daughter-in-laws in their [-]s who specialize in cleaning windows and doorposts, who's daughter-in-law, relatives of the mother's family, etc., are very clear.

Mother Jia's anger subsided a little, and she felt that although Li Shi was stupid, she was still caring.She thinks the thing is like this: the resentful servants of the Rong Mansion made a trick, let the silly elder sister pick up the sachet, and yelled it out in front of Xichun and Xiangyun.

Letting Xichun see the sachet is to let the girls of Ningfu recognize the "origin" of this pickled thing: no one in Rongfu sells goods in the market, but Ningfu uses the market to sell spring~ but there are many fancy products.As expected, Xichun was fooled, because Ruhua was a big girl given to her by the Ningfu, and she dug out the man's belongings from Ruhua's cage, so Xichun quarreled with Youshi as the slaves wished, and drove away Ruhua.Youshi's "coincidence" is too easy. Xing asked Youshi to help take care of the East Courtyard. Xichun will copy lotus root and Xiangxi Pavilion for a while. If you go to the East Courtyard to find Youshi, you don't need to talk about Xichun. I will come to Xiaoguanzhuang next door to visit my sister-in-law.Regardless of whether Xichun copied something from the painting cage or not, the aunt and sister-in-law would quarrel when they saw each other.

As for letting Xiangyun see the sachet, it must be to spread the matter. Everyone who yells at Xiangyun when he has something to do is well known, plus the silly eldest sister, the little masters of Rongfu will be splashed with sewage.

Although she believed that the Ning Mansion had nothing to do with this matter, she couldn't help angering Jia Zhen. If Jia Zhen hadn't been too lowly, the slaves would not have set up such a trap!Jin Er recalled an old event that he couldn't let go of: Jia Zhen married his son Jia Rong to the daughter of a prostitute.

Since You's family is the stepmother, she can only be called "Mrs. Patriarch", and Qin's family is the clan wife of the Jia family.What is the face of Lao Jia's family?The disobedient and unfilial sons and daughters humiliated the ancestors and shamed the descendants, and the ashes were picked up so that no one knew that the Qin family had died and dared to worship for 49 days!The concubine died, and it was only 21 days of worship.This is the benevolence of the royal family. If it is true today, Jia Zhen would have been beheaded for disrespect and chaos!

Diao slaves are even more hateful. The old lady thinks she treats her servants well, especially those who are born and bred and have served for several lifetimes. Most of them are richer than outside rich men.Even the most low-level rough laborers have new clothes for four seasons, good food, good food and a lot of monthly money.The usual slaves are lazy and greedy for some of the master's property. She should not know it. She just wants everyone to live a happy life with He Lele, but unexpectedly they let the slaves harm the master!The masters dealt with the slaves who were "disrespectful" during the funeral of the concubine. The slaves dared to hold a grudge and defiled the main hall of the concubine's concubine. They wanted to ruin the reputation of the girls in Rongfu, and the relatives and girls who lived there would not let them go. However, how vicious the intentions are!

Thinking of this, she stared at Li Wan: "Does Baoyu know about this?"

Li Wan looked embarrassed: "I don't know? How do you say this? It's just Miss Shi... Ashamed of herself, she always said that she visited Xiaoguanzhuang but didn't check the main hall. She always likes to talk about treasure hunting... er , the fourth girl is young, and she likes to ask Second Uncle Bao for advice when encountering problems, maybe..."

Jia's mother sneered and interrupted: "Do you think Baoyu is you? If Baoyu knows, the slave who cleans the main hall can still live? You have learned the virtues of obedience, obedience, three obedience and four virtues, and the respect has been transferred to the slave! I will entrust the girls to you to discipline , all of them have become idiots and wastes, and they can’t find the right owner for such obvious things, if they don’t bully you, who do you bully?”

Li Wan fell to his knees, covered his face and wept, and said, "My grandson is incompetent. My grandson also thinks it might be them, so she is even more afraid to tell Uncle Bao. His current battle is like a firecracker, and he doesn't pay much attention to dealing with slaves... "

Mother Jia sighed for a long time, punishing slaves must be tricky, but how can a young man bear it?She wondered that Baoyu had always been a good-natured man, but he was soft-spoken, and he only beat ten boards to criminal slaves who committed disrespect for drinking and having fun.Something terrible happened in Lian Er's yard, which aroused the blood of Baoyu's son.

The angry old lady found the scissors, smashed the sachet with her own hands two or three times, and told Li Wan, "Call Baoyu!"

The author has something to say: Fake stone: Good old ancestor, grandson got angry for a while, thanks to you old man to smooth it out...
