Mother Jia of the Red Chamber is Unkind

Mrs. Wang blinked her eyelids, her heart beating fast.The worst idea in her heart appeared, she still couldn't believe it, seeing Jia's mother speechless.

"Crack!" Jia Mu cracked open a melon seed.

Mrs. Wang's heart was shocked, and she frowned slightly dissatisfied.Fortunately, she was mentally prepared in advance, and her emotional performance is fairly stable now; if it were the same as before, she would have to fight to the end.

Mrs. Wang calmed her emotions, and asked Jia's mother in a gentle and respectful tone as much as possible: "Mother, can my daughter-in-law ask why?"

"You are willing to let Baoyu marry a merchant's daughter at a lower price. I have no objection. Of course, the marriage can follow your wishes as parents. But that Xue Pan is a troublesome person who keeps causing trouble. Sooner or later, he will hinder the Rong family. Don't you Forget, he still has a life on his back! As an elder of Rongfu, I will never allow such a family to marry us." Jiamu said.

Mrs. Wang's eyes flickered, she looked at Jia Mu and said, "But—"

"Don't talk nonsense, if you want to refute me, bring real evidence." Jia Mu gave Mrs. Wang a blank look and snorted coldly.

Mrs. Wang immediately fell silent, looked at Jia Mu in fear, and lowered her head, not daring to speak again.Mother Jia asked her if she had anything to do, Mrs. Wang shook her head, and withdrew.

Wang Xifeng sent a little maid to guard Jiamu's door.As soon as the little maid saw Mrs. Wang coming out, she ran to inform Wang Xifeng.Wang Xifeng immediately put down the work in hand, and rushed to report to Jia Mu: about the attack, what Aunt Xue had rewarded, and Baoyu's performance today...

Early the next morning, Mrs. Wang came to Jia Mu's room early to wait for her to get up and change clothes.Seeing her fawning expression, Jia's mother knew that she had something on her mind, so she didn't need her to serve her, but let her speak directly.

Mrs. Wang's eyeballs moved, and she looked at Jia's mother with bright eyes: "Mother, if my daughter-in-law can guarantee that my nephew Xue will not commit crimes, will the marriage between the Jia and Xue families be possible?"

Jia's mother chuckled, knowing that Mrs. Wang wanted to go all the way to the dark.Mrs. Wang is really getting more and more good at killing.Forget it, she will suffer when Jia Zheng comes back.Mother Jia decided to let her patiently for two days, after that, the second room will be quite lively.

Mrs. Wang felt a little relieved when she saw Jiamu smile. She looked at Jiamu with an apologetic smile, and waited eagerly for news.

Mother Jia looked away at Mrs. Wang: "I promise you won't do anything wrong, how can you guarantee it?"

"This——my daughter-in-law didn't think about it for a while, but there will always be a way." Mrs. Wang vowed.

Mother Jia sneered: "Your nephew can't even control her own mother. What can you do? It's no use talking about it without practicing it. Let me see it."

Mrs. Wang was overjoyed, and ignored the contempt in Jiamu's tone, thinking that Jiamu had let go of this matter, and everything has a door!She happily promised Mother Jia again, turned around and walked away with joyful steps.

The next day, Aunt Xue received a message from Mrs. Wang from the Rong Mansion: "The old lady is about to agree to the marriage of the two families."

Agree soon?While Aunt Xue was happy, she accurately grasped these three words.After pondering for a long time, she guessed that there must be something else going on here, so she posted a post and visited Rongfu three days later.Aunt Xue discussed going with Baochai, but Baochai was reluctant.

Aunt Xue comforted: "It's settled without saying anything, we should always leave a way out for ourselves."

back road?Baochai was stunned. She looked at her mother, Aunt Xue's smiling eyes like crescent moons, and finally understood what she meant.In the evening, Baochai bid farewell to her mother and went back to her room. Suddenly, she became interested in doing needlework, and went to the kang in the inner room, only to see a red cloth pocket in another needlework basket, on which were embroidered a few competing flowers. There is another crabapple flower in the outline, which has not been embroidered yet.

"Whose property is this?" Baochai just asked, when she suddenly remembered that she invited Xiren to embroider a few days ago.She stretched out her hand to pick up the cloth pocket, remembering that Xiren had said that Baoyu would still wear it to this day.She smiled helplessly, picked up the needle and thread and began to embroider.

Three days later, Mrs. Wang took Baoyu to meet Aunt Xue and Baochai.The two Wang sisters sat on the Arhat couch with wide smiles, and they sat on the left and right sides of the pineapple table with four corners and short legs.Baochai and Baoyu were led to the back room by the women, where they placed some fruit and snacks with them.

Baoyu looked at Baochai cautiously, and was silent for a while, so as not to make the atmosphere too embarrassing, she finally asked how Baochai's illness was, and if she recovered.Baochai smiled and nodded, saying hello.Baoyu agreed with a smile, but then had nothing to say, and the atmosphere was rather awkward.Baoyu simply picked up the teacup, put his lips against the edge of the cup, and slowly drank the water.

Baochai suddenly felt that he was cute and cute, so she chuckled.Baoyu stared at her blankly, puzzled.Baochai turned to look at Ying'er, her personal servant girl. Ying'er understood, and took out a plain blue satin cloth bag from her bosom.Baochai ordered him to hand it over to Baoyu.Baoyu opened it suspiciously, and saw a red cloth bag, his face blushed immediately, and he hurriedly wrapped the cloth bag.

Seeing that Baoyu had misunderstood Baochai, Baochai was a little annoyed.Could it be that he is such a frivolous person in his eyes?Moisture appeared in Baochai's eyes, and she lowered her head and covered her mouth with a veil.

Yinger quickly jumped out and explained to Baoyu that this was something Xiren made for him back then, and she asked Miss Bao to bring it over.

Baoyu knew that he had misunderstood, so he hurriedly apologized to Baochai.

Baochai gave her a reproachful look, she was a little bit charming, she wanted to come out, she turned her head and turned her body to pretend to ignore Baoyu.Baoyu panicked and made compensations one after another.Baochai was so kind, she smiled and told him to put away the attacker's things.

"She's all in her heart, so don't let her down."

Baoyu nodded, he still remembered the friendship between master and servant.

Baochai smiled as if understanding, "Don't worry, even if you master and servant cannot be reunited, I will take good care of her, and she will not suffer."

Baoyu nodded again, got up and thanked Baochai.Baochai laughed at him for being too polite, and Baoyu laughed too, showing half of his die teeth.Baochai's smile froze at the corner of her mouth for an instant, something seemed to be churning in her stomach, and she endured it again and again.Baoyu seemed to feel that something was wrong, and suddenly said goodbye to Baochai, saying that he was going to study.Baochai couldn't stop him, and watched him leave with a smile, her face immediately collapsed.

Outside, Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang were still chatting, discussing how to manage Xue Pan's affairs.

"In a few days, his uncle will come back from the northwest and ask him to be educated under his uncle's nose, so he will be able to control him naturally." Mrs. Wang promised.

Aunt Xue also knew that she had spoiled her son to the sky, and by the time she wanted him to change, it was too late. "He's just such a messy character, nine cows can't be pulled back. We women really can't control it, I think my brother-in-law has a way."

Mrs. Wang nodded, and took Aunt Xue's hand: "When he is in charge, he will be doing his job seriously, and Baoyu will get an official and a half-job in Beijing after the imperial examination. The two brothers will support each other. How nice."

Aunt Xue narrowed her eyes with a smile, she was very satisfied with what Mrs. Wang said.Mrs. Wang is also very happy that the sisters have reached a consensus.As long as Xue Pan changed his temperament in front of Jia Mu, she would have no reason to refute the marriage between Jia Xue and his family.

On the way back to the house, Aunt Xue said to Baochai in bewilderment: "It's also strange, today it suddenly involves your elder brother for some reason. I don't see your aunt caring so much about your elder brother in the past."

Baochai smiled, and perfunctorily said to her mother, "Perhaps people have cared about it for a long time, but you just didn't realize it."

Aunt Xue glanced at her daughter and shook her head disapprovingly.The smile on Baochai's face faded away, her eyes were empty, and she gradually lowered her head.

Aunt Xue put her hand on Baochai's and asked softly what was wrong with her precious daughter.

Baochai smiled wryly, but said nothing.

Aunt Xue understood what her daughter meant, and grabbed her hand and asked, "Why, I still can't bear it?"

Baochai shook her head, then said with a sensible smile to Aunt Xue: "Don't worry, mother, I will remember what you told me, and I will do it today. I think he should be grateful to me after today."

"That's good," Aunt Xue smiled and patted the back of Baochai's hand, advising her not to be impulsive, the future will be long, and we can talk about it in a few days.

In the next few days, Mrs. Wang went to Aunt Xue's side frequently, and she often brought Baoyu here, especially trying to make them stay alone.

Baoyu still had the same attitude as usual, being honest and well-behaved. Wherever Mrs. Wang arranged for him, he would stay there obediently.This happened many times, and Baochai lost her patience, and one day she lost her temper with Baoyu.Baoyu felt puzzled, but forbearance did not argue with Baochai.

Baochai was even more angry, "It's just a boring gourd that still makes a sound when you knock it once. How did you become a dead stone? I don't see your clever tricks in the past. What's wrong with you? How can I go to Wutai Mountain? Get to know me well."

Baoyu pursed her lips, intending to refute, but then remembered the training and teachings given to him by his master, Master Miku, Baoyu decided to continue to endure and not to provoke Baochai.He couldn't bear such petty things, and he didn't deserve to say that he came from Mount Wutai as a teacher.

Finally Baochai couldn't save face, so she turned around and left angrily.She deliberately walked a few steps quickly, and slowed down when she was out of the door, so that Baoyu could catch up easily, but she never wanted to wait outside for a stick of incense, and she still didn't have to wait for Baoyu to come.Baochai thought about Baoyu's patience with the angry Daiyu back then, compared with herself today, she was even more angry, and ran back to the room to cry secretly without looking back.

Baoyu sat obediently in the room until Mrs. Wang sent someone to tell him to go back, and then he left.As soon as he got into the car, he said to Mrs. Wang: "I won't come again in the future. Don't delay your studies."

Mrs. Wang stared at Baoyu in surprise, and said angrily: "You can't delay your studies, but your mother and aunt can be delayed?"

Baoyu looked up at Mrs. Wang, nodded silently, muttered a few Sanskrit words in her mouth, kept repeating, and ignored Mrs. Wang.Mrs. Wang looked at him as if she was looking at a talking log, angry and anxious.

At the same time, the Xue family broke out.

Baochai was weeping secretly in the room, and Xiangling accidentally saw her.Xiangling told Xue Pan who had just returned home.Xue Pan ran to comfort her, and when she learned of her sister's thoughts, she hurriedly asked Aunt Xue to explain the matter.

Aunt Xue is still optimistic about the family of Rongfu, besides, Mrs. Wang's meaning is rarely so clear now.Unexpectedly, Baochai refused, and she never wanted to see such a dull and stubborn Baoyu again.Aunt Xue cried and tried to persuade her, but she slipped her tongue and told Baochai that as long as his elder brother Xue Pan is under control, everything will be easy to talk about, and the days to come will be better.

Xue Pan quit when he heard this.Co-authored for a long time, mother and aunt figured out how to 'handle' themselves?Xue Pan doesn't like to be restrained the most, and he doesn't want to give up those alluring female flowers and plants outside.Being disciplined by Rongfu's uncle or something, let alone the truth, he was so uncomfortable just thinking about it that he was going to hang himself.

Xue Pan is playing tricks and rascals, and he can make a fuss in front of Aunt Xue.For a while he said he didn't want to, and for a while he felt worthless for his younger sister Baochai, and even spoke ill of Baoyu, who impressed him very much.No matter who it is, it is always the person who hinders him from having fun, and he will never recognize him!

Aunt Xue cried for a while because of the fussiness of the two children, and she was overwhelmed.Aunt Xue was moved, she didn't want her son and daughter to live unwillingly, after much consideration, she finally decided to give up the marriage between Baochai and Baoyu.

Both brothers and sisters breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other with a smile, and threw themselves at Aunt Xue's side to act like a spoiled child.

Aunt Xue hugged her son and daughter joyfully, she was very satisfied.

Not long after, Mrs. Wang gradually became aware of the estrangement and indifference of the Xue family. In addition, she found out that the relationship between Baoyu and Baochai had cooled down. No matter how stupid she was, she could figure out what was going on.The Xue family actually disliked her precious jade!Her Baoyu has both talent and beauty, which is not good!Even if the other party is her own sister, Mrs. Wang can't bear it, it's too infuriating.

Since then, there has been a gap between the Wang sisters, and they have become increasingly indifferent.

When it's cold, Mother Jia hides in the house and cats winter.

When she had nothing to do, Jia's mother suddenly remembered what happened to Mrs. Wang's mess, so she asked her to ask.

Madam Wang showed embarrassment and embarrassment, and said: "The daughter-in-law is lonely, and she is not as far-sighted as my mother. You are an old man who was wise and wise at the beginning, and the daughter of a merchant is so vulgar. How can you be worthy of our men in Rongfu! Mother, daughter-in-law I was wrong, and I will never have such a stupid idea in the future."

"Hehe," Jia Mu laughed twice, her voice was very shallow and thin, and she swept Mrs. Wang's ears lightly, making Mrs. Wang's heart shiver.Mrs. Wang tightened her neck, nodded, and put on an honest and filial look.

"I don't know what your sister was like back then. Thinking about her joining the Xue family for more than 20 years, you have never seen her. Businessmen have always valued money and have little affection. Your sister has been infected in Xue's house all year round. It is inevitable that she will be a bit of a philistine. You are a daughter-in-law of an official family. No matter how shrewd the son is, he can't beat her. If the mother is like this, how can the daughter need me to say more?"

Mrs. Wang bit her lip secretly, nodded and said to Jia Mu, "Yes!"

Mother Jia squinted her eyes and nodded, "Mmm", and then said to the daughter-in-laws in front of her, "The marriage between the Rong Mansion and Xue's family is over for now, and no one will mention it in the future. I'm from the second family. If you passed your chance, you should be convinced, right?"

Jia's mother's words implied that Mrs. Wang did not cherish the opportunity, and she messed up the matter herself.

Mrs. Wang closed her eyes and nodded, losing face again!Forget it, she just thought she was bitten by a dog, and she must never be so stupid in the future.

Aunt Xue was upset and regretful when she saw Mrs. Wang's terrific actions, and even completely cut off the communication between their two houses.The anger could not be dispelled, so the Xue family took all their anger on Xi Ren.

Xue Pan wondered, since the two families have nothing to do with each other, what's the use of keeping Xiren carefully?

Actually, Xue Pan had long coveted his attractive looks, but because he heard that he was someone close to Brother Bao, he kept holding back his saliva and dared not enjoy it.Seeing a chance this time, Xue Pan immediately ran to ask Aunt Xue for instructions.Aunt Xue was irritated and annoyed, she nodded her head in agreement.Turning around, Xue Pan took the attacker as his own.

Xiren is quite pretty and has a little understanding of style.Although she was very resistant to Xue Pan's actions, but Xue Pan was a veteran in the field of love, and her body reacted very strongly after several times of persuasion.As a result, she blushed while resisting, embarrassed and annoyed, she bit Xue Pan bitterly.

Xue Pan was having a good time, when Xiren suddenly frightened him, and his "good brother" withered instantly.Xue Pan was in a hurry, he didn't care about pity, so he slapped Xi Ren's pretty long face.The attacker frantically resisted, waving his arms and grabbing Xue Pan, Xue Pan forced him to hold him down, seeing the tears of the pretty woman under him, he suddenly became interested and wanted to force his way in.Xiren scratched Xue Pan's face with his hands, and three blood marks were drawn on Xue Pan's fair and fair face immediately.Xue Pan came to his senses, waved his arm again and slapped Xiren again, then went down to check his face in the mirror.Xiren took the opportunity to put on a skirt and cloak, and fled in a panic.Xue Pan found out and hurriedly led people to chase him.Xiren was finally forced to the stone well in the backyard of Xue's mansion, and wanted to jump into the well.Xue Pan was scared now, and hurriedly coaxed her, and made many promises to her.Xiren cried and shook his head, in disbelief.

Xue Pan hurriedly dismissed the crowd, waved his hands and said: "I know who you miss in your heart. I am not as good as him, but I promise that I will treat you better than he treats you. Think about it, who saved you when you were broke It's me! As long as you are willing to follow me in the future, I will tell my mother to mention you as my aunt, and let you eat and drink hot food every day. You are the only one in my yard who is the big one, and no one can bully you! Xiangling can't do it."

Xiren shivered slightly, and looked at Xue Pan hesitantly.Seeing that she was wavering, Xue Pan hurriedly added conditions and coaxed her a few more words.Xiren finally softened and sat by the well crying.Xue Pan hurriedly grabbed Xiren, scolded her for being an idiot, and asked someone to take her back.Xiren found out that Xue Pan was coaxing her just now, and was extremely desperate, struggling to jump into the well, how could Xue Pan back down.Between the two tugging, they took off Xi Ren's clothes...

The farce is finally over.

Aunt Xue ordered Xiren to be imprisoned, and asked Xue Pan what he meant.Xue Pan still refused to let him go, so Aunt Xue pointed at his nose and scolded him for shame. "She was all seen by the people in the house. Besides, she didn't come to your side clean. If she stays, the whole family's face will be completely humiliated by you!"

Only then did Xue Pan agree to let go, and went out to find two handsome poor children to divert his attention, and then he completely forgot about Xiren.Xiren was disposed of by Aunt Xue, but no one knows where he went and what happened.

……

In the cold winter of March [-]th, there was heavy snowfall.

Jia Zheng, the second master of the Rong Mansion, finally returned from the northwest.

It was very difficult to travel in winter. As soon as Jia Zheng came back, he hurriedly sent someone to send a message to Mrs. Wang's people to arrange Aunt Zhang's residence.

"Aunt Zhang?" Mrs. Wang sneered, "What is she? She should come to see me first when she comes back. I am the master, and she is the slave."

Jin Chuan continued to reply with an embarrassed face: "Master has already brought Aunt Zhang to see the old lady."

"What, you didn't say it earlier!" Mrs. Wang miscalculated, she thought that the master would come here to meet her first when he came back, and then the husband and wife would go to see Jia Mu together.Never thought that the master would take that aunt to meet the old lady!

Mrs. Wang rushed there in a hurry, met Jia Zheng, and also saw a woman sitting beside Jia Zheng.The appearance of sixteen seven is graceful and graceful, with a pure look on his face.Who is this man?Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Zheng suspiciously.

Jia Zheng recommended Aunt Zhang and Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang frowned, and looked at the 'Aunt Zhang' who was paying her respects. "Master, who is she? She is not Aunt Zhang at all."

Jia Zheng laughed and explained: "Her surname is Zhang, and she is my concubine in Northwest China. She is naturally Aunt Zhang."

Mrs. Wang was even more puzzled, the master's concubine in the northwest was clearly her maid Zhang Qiaoyan, she recognized her maid Zhang Qiaoyan, how could it be the woman in front of her!

Aunt Zhang bowed to Mrs. Wang again, and said politely: "As for the second wife, the maidservant's surname is indeed Zhang."

A wild girl who just entered the mansion, she can't make a mistake in her words, it's not easy!

Mrs. Wang became vigilant, and doubts abounded in her heart about the identity of Aunt Zhang.But at the moment in front of Jiamu, she is not excited, and she did report the existence of "Aunt Zhang" to Jiamu when she first came back.Mrs. Wang calmed down and talked about the maid Zhang Qiaoyan.

Mother Jia raised her eyebrows and stared at Jia Zheng: "What's going on?"

Jia Zheng was a little embarrassed, looked at Mrs. Wang complainingly, and explained to Jia Mu in detail: "Her name is Zhang Qiaofei, and she is Qiaoyan's younger sister. Two and a half months ago, Qiaoyan suddenly became seriously ill, and her only wish before she died was I just saw my sister. Coincidentally, Qiaoyan’s hometown is in the Northwest Tong village. I found her sister to bid farewell to Qiaoyan. Before Qiaoyan died, she entrusted her sister to me..."

Mrs. Wang stared wide-eyed in shock when she heard these increasingly miraculous twists and turns, and looked at Zhang Qiaofei, who had a face that could pinch water.No wonder she looked at this woman strangely as soon as she entered the door, it turned out that her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Qiaoyan.They are sisters!While thinking about it, Mrs. Wang found a ray of cold eyes, and when she was looking for it, all she saw was a flattering smile on Zhang Qiaofei's face.

Mother Jia pretended to be interested, and after listening to Jia Zheng tell the story of the Zhang sisters again, she finally said "It's not easy for you sisters" to perfunctory Jia Zheng.In fact, Jia's mother had already received a letter from Fei Ge, the eyeliner next to Jia Zheng, as early as two months ago.She is happy to see this little thing come to fruition, anyway, only Mrs. Wang is the one who suffers.It made her cry some time ago, but this time she got it.

Jia Zheng smiled and said to Jia Mu: "Mother, I have a happy news to tell you that Aunt Zhang is pregnant, and the doctor took the pulse and said it was a boy."

There is nothing more joyful than having a child again in middle age.Jia Zheng raised the corners of his mouth triumphantly, his mood couldn't have been better.
