[Comprehensive Red House] Infinite Merit

It's already summer in Beijing, stepping on the pier in the capital, blowing the summer wind in the middle of Beijing, watching the bustle of people coming and going on the shore and the cries of hawkers, Madam Xue breathed a long sigh of relief, with some tears in the corners of her eyes. , sighed to Chen Shi beside him: "The last time I was here, when I got married, your uncle sent me off."

Just as he was talking, a servant from the palace came to greet him, so Mrs. Xue took Youyi, Mrs. Chen and Xue Xun to the palace to visit Mrs. Wang Ziteng.

——At this time, Wang Ziteng had already left Beijing, and he could only see Mrs. Wang Ziteng.

Mrs. Wang Ziteng can tell at a glance that she is a pampered lady. She has a good family background and a strong waist.Although the knees are empty, it is related to Wang Ziteng. For this, Wang Ziteng has treated her very favorably, and she is not worried about being sent back to her natal family on the condition of seven outs.

She lived a comfortable life, and at this time she was very happy to see her sister-in-law who had been away for many years, so she seriously dressed up and looked very serious.She was wearing a purple jacket, a gauze dress of the same color over her head, and a floor-length skirt underneath, which was embroidered with irises, looking elegant and beautiful.

Mrs. Wang Ziteng's hair bun is just the fashionable style in Beijing, and the hairpin she wears is a dot green phoenix hairpin inlaid with pearls, which is gorgeous in style and exquisite in craftsmanship.

Mrs. Xue greeted her with tears in her eyes. Mrs. Wang Ziteng shed two tears with her, and said to Youyi: "Is this Baochai? Come on, let my aunt have a look. Last time I saw you When you were full moon, your uncle and I went to Jinling to see you, and now you are a big girl."

Wang Ziteng's official title is the second-rank, and Mrs. Wang Ziteng is the second-rank imperial order, which is equal to Youyi's second-rank county master, so she can't accept Youyi's gift. Come up with the ceremony.

It is a box of Xingong flowers and a set of fashion jewelry.

Youyi thanked you with a smile, and Mrs. Chen came up to salute and meet you.Mrs. Wang Ziteng gave the gift as before: four pieces of fashionable satin and a pair of emerald jade earrings.

Seeing Xue Xun again, she liked it very much, and immediately held it in her arms and said something, and added an extra jade pendant to the original gift.

Then Mrs. Wang Ziteng talked with Mrs. Xue, asked about Xue Pan's condition, and comforted Mrs. Xue.

After lunch, Mrs. Wang Ziteng wanted to stay, Youyi said: "The house in Beijing has been tidied up, don't bother my aunt."

Mrs. Wang Ziteng nodded after hearing this, and then took Mrs. Xue's hand and said, "My good sister, since you have come to Beijing, you often come to visit me. Let's talk and have fun."

Mrs. Xue agreed with a smile, and the group stayed until evening.

When we got there: Jingde county lord's mansion, all the salutes have been arranged properly, Zhu Yan led people to arrange the up and down properly, and brought the whole family's servants to wait at the door.

Mrs. Xue was also very tired, and went straight to her yard to wash and rest, and Youyi asked extra: "How is Zhuangzi?"

Zhu Yan said with a smile: "This servant went over to see it in person, it's all done."

"That's the best." Youyi said: "Harvest as soon as possible, and I will write a booklet and send it right away."

Then he joked with Zhu Yan and said with a smile: "This time is enough to confer a title, and it is the credit of the grace to protect future generations."

Zhu Yan's eyes were full of excitement and fanaticism: "The crops that yield twenty stones per mu, if planted, are enough to feed the stomachs of the whole world. Isn't this a great achievement?"

"Yes." Youyi nodded and smiled.

The next day, go to Jia's mansion.

Mrs. Wang had been waiting at the second gate with Wang Xifeng early. Seeing Mrs. Xue being supported by Mrs. Chen, You Yi led Xue Xun off the sedan chair and came up to welcome her.Mrs. Wang took Mrs. Xue's hand, and the two looked at each other with teary eyes. One was called "sister" and the other was called "sister", and they hadn't seen each other for many years. .

Wang Xifeng was a very neat woman, her orange-red gown was embroidered with flowers attracting butterflies, she wore a jeweled bun, and she was gorgeously dressed.Seeing Youyi, she quickly stepped forward and took Youyi's hand: "I heard about my sister before, but now when I meet you, her character is really extraordinary."

Looking at Xue Xun again, he smiled and said, "Is this my little nephew?"

Youyi asked Xue Xun to meet Wang Xifeng and Mrs. Wang. They laughed and led the three of them inside to meet Jia's mother.

In Jiamu's main room, Mrs. Xing, Li Wan, Daiyu, Baoyu, and Sanchun were all there. Seeing Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng leading four people, old and young, in, they knew it was the Xue family.

The girls got up to greet Youyi and Mrs. Xue. Mrs. Xue took her daughter, daughter-in-law and grandson to meet Jiamu. I'm jealous."

Mrs. Xue said with a smile: "The old lady's girl must be well-raised, otherwise she wouldn't be so rich."

They were gossiping about homework, Youyi sat and met the others, Tanchun came up and pulled her to talk, Youyi agreed leisurely, and Daiyu on the other side gave Baoyu a look, seeing that everyone was surrounding Youyi, Baoyu I was also very interested, and I was very unhappy.

Mother Jia also proposed to keep Mrs. Xue to live for a while, and said: "The garden in this mansion is well maintained, and now my grandsons and granddaughters are all living in it! Let the eldest girl stay, and the children live together. And live in peace and joy.”

Mrs. Xue was about to agree, but she listened to Youyi and said, "Mrs. Duolao is concerned, but Baochai is busy with affairs. If she stays in your mansion for a short time, she will be bothered. In fact, the mansion in Beijing has been completed, and my mother's contacts are very frequent. It is convenient, and the relationship between the two is closer.”

Mother Jia seemed to realize that the person in front of her was not only a junior, but also the head of the clan.

So Mother Jia smiled and took it over, stopped mentioning this, and pulled Xue Xun again: "How old are you this year? What do you do on weekdays?"

Xue Xun said obediently and cleverly: "It's almost two years old, and I usually study with my aunt."

"How old is this child, and he has started to study?" Mother Jia seemed taken aback, and said disapprovingly to Youyi: "Although the girl is strict, she still has to take care of the child's body. How old is he? It's greed When playing, wouldn't it be beautiful to keep him studying?"

Youyi smiled, not only has the respect of the younger generation, but also has the demeanor of the second-rank county lord and the head of the clan. Hope to entrust him, he will naturally study more and put in a lot of effort than others, so as to live up to his grandfather's spirit in heaven."

As she said that, Youyi lowered her eyes and smiled again, her expression softened: "However, the master of your mansion is a first-class general, and Sister Feng's husband is a future second-class general. If the title continues, there will be no worries for three or four generations. The old lady naturally doesn't have to worry about this."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Wang's complexion was not very good-looking, but Baoyu tilted her head and looked at Youyi in a daze. think.

After all, Mother Jia has experienced storms, and she waved her hands and smiled: "I am old, and I can't care about the affairs of the juniors. What happens to them in the future depends entirely on their fate."

Mrs. Xue gave Youyi a dark look, and she was a little discouraged when she saw her straight back and solemn face. When did this daughter hear her as a mother?

After soaking in Jia's mansion for a day, it was dark when I returned to the mansion.

Mrs. Chen gently told the housekeeper's daughter-in-law: "Let the kitchen serve out the lotus leaf porridge that was stewed in the morning, and then serve a portion of the side dishes we brought from Jinling, and send it to the county magistrate. The same porridge is served in Bei Give the pickles from the ground to the wife. Make some rice paste and send it to Xun'er with small snacks."

Youyi interjected and ordered: "I'll give you a bowl of porridge for your grandma too. You might as well not send it around, and use it in your mother's yard."

As she said that, she turned her head to look at Mrs. Chen again, and said, "Get up early and tell Qiongzhi to prepare yam cakes, stuffed with jujube paste and cut into shreds. Everyone has a bad appetite after running around for days. The one that appetizes and strengthens the spleen is for Xun'er." Two bucks."

Where is Chen's wrongdoing?So he agreed with a smile, and the group had a small meal in Mrs. Xue's yard. Xue Xun ate three or four cakes with a good appetite, and drank a bowl of rice paste.It made Mrs. Chen tease him again and again: "Look at this one who eats slowly and chews slowly, but the food is not small at all."

Mrs. Xue said: "Don't talk about him, how big is this bowl and this cake? You can't hold it if you eat it. Besides, it's a blessing to be able to eat. Our children, how good is it to eat? You just care about these nonsense I don't see you talking about trivial things, but you don't talk about big things."

——She was angry with Youyi in Rongfu, and she will release it at this time.

Mrs. Chen knew it in her heart, and she didn't tell her apart, she lowered her head and chewed the pastry carefully, without saying a word.

Youyi put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth slowly with a towel, and said, "Mother, if you are angry, you don't have to send it to your sister-in-law. Just think about it carefully. I said it in Jia's house today. Is there any one sentence that will not be repeated?" Logically."

Mrs. Xue was very angry when she heard this: she naturally knew that there was nothing wrong with Youyi's words, that's why she was even more angry!

Thinking about it, she saw Youyi got up and left again, and before she left, she even called Chen Shi: "Sister-in-law, come with me, I have something to tell you."

This became even more furious, and he slammed the chopsticks on the table fiercely, and said angrily: "It's all from one nostril! This is the wife married to Pan'er, or I bought you a 'female intellectual' return!"

As soon as these words came out, all the servants and servants in the room dared not say a word.

——Nvzhike is a common saying in the capital, talking about housemaids, of course they are not serious maids, but for weddings and funerals, please come to the door to support the scene.Because he is not a long-term servant and only serves for a short period of time, he naturally obeys his master's words and is not easy to offend.

Xue Xun's big round eyes rolled around, and he tugged on Mrs. Xue's sleeves, and said in a milky voice: "Grandmother! Don't be angry, Xun'er wants to eat shortbread!"

Mrs. Xue was being spoiled by her little grandson, so she calmed down a bit, touched Xue Xun's little head, and said, "Wait, grandma will do it for you."

The little Xue Xun was left behind to climb up on the chair again, and waved to the surrounding servants, signaling them to back down.Then Bai Nennen's little baby sat on the chair and let out a long sigh: Why didn't my aunt take me away too?

He touched his bulging belly again, and sighed: "I want you to suffer again, I have to let Aunt Jin brew some tea to drink when I go back."
