A Dream of Red Mansions Unexpected Visitors

But he said that Xiren's mother was seriously ill, so Xiren went out to see a doctor.Qingwen kept watch at night, and she was naughty, she was sick when she played with Baoyu in the middle of the night. A few days ago the girls accidentally stole Ping'er's bracelet on the day when the girls were admiring the snow. It takes a long time for this disease to heal.

After Xiren came back and heard about this, although he said that Qingwen was too anxious to drive Zhui'er out, he was secretly happy that Qingwen had been caught.Baoyu seems to be friendly with the maids these days, but he doesn't have the tenderness and sweetness of the past, although Xiren is anxious.It's just that Baoyu treats everyone like this, but the panic at the beginning has turned into rejoicing.According to Baoyu's current temperament, except for herself, I am afraid that everyone else will be released in the future.

This time I heard what Qingwen did in a few days, thinking that without herself, Baoyu must have seen Qingwen's sincerity, and she was desperately trying to make up for Baoyu. Baoyu would definitely be moved.I also heard that Baoyu once said that the medicine prescribed by Imperial Physician Hu was too heavy, so he specially invited Imperial Physician Wang. Imperial Physician Hu only treated the little promises in the palace, while Imperial Physician Wang treated concubines above concubines. Imperial physicians are not of the same rank.As a result, her heart was already on fire, but fortunately, Qingwen's fiery temperament drove the pendant out. This kind of thing is not a big deal when the master spoils you, but it is a big taboo if the master doesn't like it.What's more, don't miss the old love at all, beat or scold the little girl, everyone is sad, if something happens in the future, who will sell you well.So I didn't say anything more to inform Mrs. Wang, I just kept everything in my heart and waited for the critical moment to come out.

But he said that it was the time of the new year, everyone was busy, and the poetry club was empty, and even Sister Feng had to cheer up and prepare for various matters.

This year's Lantern Festival has passed, but the imperial concubine can no longer come to visit her relatives. Because there is a dowager in the palace who is not well, all the concubines will reduce their meals and make-up for him.Therefore, there are no lantern riddles in Jia's mansion, only Daiyu sighed to Qingxuan: "In such a family-senting garden, the noble concubine only came back last year. The emperor is old. In what year is there no concubine who is sick and unwell? Sister Yuanchun I think it will be rare to come back in the future."

Seeing what happened to Daiyu now, Qingxuan was not afraid to tell Daiyu the truth, saying: "The purpose of asking each family to visit relatives today is to find out the family background of these nobles. Although they have no military power now, they can be contacted by the court They have relatives, and they are similar to Prince Yizhong in the past, and they have accumulated wealth accumulated for several lifetimes. If they want to rebel, they are also a big force. They simply used their family assets to build family-sacrificing villas, and went to wealth, but they lacked wings. Birds are just weak-hearted."

Daiyu was startled and said, "Does the emperor want to get rid of these families one by one?"

Qingxuan said: "That's not the case. There are no noble families in any dynasty or generation. You just need to know how to understand practical affairs. Now that you have become the emperor, you must be loyal to the emperor, and you can't have two heads. This is just the power of the name, the emperor. Don't pay attention to it yet."

Only then did Daiyu nod her head in reassurance, but Qingxuan didn't tell Daiyu that the Jia family was such a wall, and the emperor didn't like it even if he didn't get rid of it quickly. A large sum of money was withdrawn from the treasury and has not been returned.Such a family, even if it declines, it is natural, so why bother to restore it.My own persuasion to Sister Feng is just to stop her evil deeds, and it can also be regarded as doing good deeds and killing those who should be safe.

Maybe it was because Sister Feng stopped those evil things. After the Lantern Festival, Sister Feng was diagnosed as pregnant, and Jia Lian and Sister Feng were overjoyed.Unexpectedly, Sister Feng's endowment is insufficient in qi and blood, and she is young and does not know how to take care of herself. She has been fighting for strength and wits all her life, and her mental strength is even worse. This fetus is likely to be unstable.Even if Mrs. Wang still lets Sister Feng do the housekeeping, others will think that she has a vicious heart. She doesn't want Sister Feng to give birth to a son. Associate.

Sister Feng and Jia Lian discussed what to do, and Jia Lian said: "This housekeeper's matter, don't worry, now we have a way out, and you have this in your belly again. We don't plan for him and sister Qiao, but for whom." So the two discussed and asked Jia's mother for leave directly, and Jia's mother knew that Sister Feng really couldn't manage, so she agreed.

Needless to say how Sister Feng asked Mother Chen in Daiyu's room about maintenance and asked Chunyu to cook various medicinal meals to protect the fetus. Anyway, after many days of hard work, she gave birth to a son safely.Mrs. Wang wanted to do something secretly, but Sister Feng was already prepared, and there was a mother Chen who was proficient in women's private affairs.Speaking of it, Sister Feng is also Aunt Xue's niece, so I can't ask her for help in this matter, I can only think about it bitterly, I don't know the gender at birth, even if it is a boy, when Nanny Chen and Chun Yu are gone, a child wants to It is not easy to grow up peacefully.Even when he grows up, he may not be a dandy, just like his father, but his own treasure jade has long been a talent, not a threat, so he put his hand away and ignored it.

It's just that she is pregnant in October, and there are no serious people in charge of the mansion. Li Wan is a widow, and she talks very little on weekdays, so she can't hold her servants.Mrs. Wang wanted to put Baochai in charge, and she also showed her attitude. She only said to Jiamu: "Old women are useless. They have time to eat wine and fight cards. They sleep during the day and fight cards at night. In the past, Feng girl I can still hold them down now. Now a big daughter-in-law is a log, and Tanchun is still young, so I thought that Bao girl is a decent person, and she also helps my sister with things on weekdays, so I invited her to come here and there. Be careful, take care of it, how does the old lady feel?"

Mother Jia said without losing her composure, "She is a girl from a relative's family. Now she is in charge of our family's affairs and has a bad reputation. But since she has been invited here, she can't let her go back without saying a word."

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she said that Jia Mu had agreed, and she was about to show joy on her face.

Unexpectedly, Mother Jia changed the subject and said: "The girls in our family are not too young in terms of age. Whoever welcomes the spring and explores the spring should be kissed in a few days. These girls don't even have the ability to manage the house at all." I know. Xichun is still young, so that’s all. I think it’s better to go to study together with Yingchun Tanchun and Xiangyun Daiyu, so that since all the girls from relatives’ families are here, I’m not afraid of being misunderstood. On the contrary, the girls in our family are all It is capable. You go to prepare and prepare, and then let the sisters take care of one place, you in charge of needlework, I in charge of the kitchen, she in charge of monthly routines, etc. If the distribution is like this, everyone knows what they should do, saving money Some people are ashamed and don't say a word, it's useless to assign them the housekeeping job, and they won't be in a hurry."

Mrs. Wang shattered her idea of ​​letting Baochai be the master when she saw Jia Mu's words. Originally, Li Wan didn't care about everything, and Tanchun wanted to please herself so that she couldn't offend Baochai. .Unexpectedly, the old lady's words were well-founded, and she couldn't refuse, so she could only agree.But after going back, he comforted Baochai and said: "My good boy, you are still a decent person. If those people are not good, just talk about it. If they don't listen, you go back and forth with me." Hers, tell Baochai not to care about the others.Fortunately, Baochai himself felt that Mrs. Wang's idea was inappropriate, and she was not angry at the many sisters sharing the matter.

On the second day, the girls discussed with each other after hearing what Jia Mu said. Li Wan knew that many of these girls were just checking for gaps, so he only said that he had an overview of the overall situation and did not take care of any specific things. We all know, not much theory.Although they had never done this before, but thinking that they would always go out, even though they were shy, they agreed.Mrs. Wang assigned Yingchun to be in charge of needlework, Tanchun to be in charge of the flowers and trees in the garden, Xiangyun to be in charge of the distribution of utensils, and only Baochai to be in charge of the monthly schedule, which was more important than other people's errands.

The girls agreed to go to the three small flower halls to the south of the garden gate to meet and do business together. After breakfast, they returned at noon.Every night when needlework is free, before going to bed, I sit in a sedan chair and lead the night people in the garden to inspect everywhere.In this way, it is managed well.

Because Yingchun is gentle by nature, she doesn't want to participate in the struggle for power between Jiamu and Mrs. Wang, and doesn't care about the triviality of her errands. She carefully inquires about the old rules and is very meticulous, but she gradually finds the rules and has her own understanding. .Xiangyun and Daiyu are different from other people. Daiyu has already been in charge of things, while Xiangyun follows her in everything, so both of them have ordered the people below. Individuals have their own responsibilities and manage layer by layer. Those below made mistakes, and those above were punished accordingly. At the end of the month, meritorious deeds were rewarded. At the beginning, everyone laughed at them as doing nothing. After a month, they saw that things were in order. Mistakes, the rest of the people took it.

And because Tanchun is a concubine, he has always wanted to prove that he is not inferior to the concubine. Although he is in charge of the affairs of flowers and trees, not only is the management very strict and no mistakes can be made, but he is also thinking hard to get rid of several disadvantages in the mansion. .

As for Baochai at the beginning, the people in charge knew that she was Mrs. Wang's favorite Second Mistress Bao, and they didn't dare to underestimate her. It was only after a period of time that people's hearts fluttered and they had some ideas.Even Mrs. Wang has to turn a blind eye to the greedy things of her subordinates. It is the most reasonable thing in the world that there will be no fish when the water is clear. You can't just keep everyone in good order just because Miss Bao is the second grandma Bao in the future. moment.Even Lian’s second grandma, Feng Spicy, was tested by everyone in the house, so Wu Xindeng and the butler discussed it for a while and prepared to test it out. Mrs. Xing’s companion, Wang Shanbao’s family, thought that the girl’s director was not thorough enough, I might have some benefits to reap, so I also came to mix things up, and the agitation of several people brought Baochai a lot of trouble. If I want to talk about the trouble, let's hear the next chapter.
