Mother Jia of the Red Chamber is Unkind

The four muttered for half an hour, and everything was arranged.The day when Jiamu went to Fahua Temple was decided on the [-]th day of the first lunar month.

By the way, Lin Ruhai asked Mother Jia about the funeral in Ning Mansion, and asked the old lady how she planned to deal with it.

Jia Mu said: "Just like other families, go to the funeral when it's time to mourn, and show your face during the funeral."

Lin Ruhai nodded, and he planned to do the same.

Jia's mother thought that it was a trouble for Yuan Chun to make such a fuss in the palace, and Jia's mother had no or no control over how she died.I'm afraid that this guy's surname is Jia, and if he makes a big mistake, it will be bad for the tribe. "I still have to find a way to order her. I can't control how she competes for favor in the harem, but she must not be allowed to touch the affairs of the court."

If you touch it, it is very likely to be a major crime against the Jiu Clan.

Mentioning this virtuous concubine gave Lin Ruhai a headache.How nice it is to be a concubine in the palace in a peaceful manner, so many things have to happen.The woman in the harem is very pregnant. Even if she successfully gives birth to a prince in the future, what does it matter to her that there are so many adult princes blocking the way.

Lin Ruhai said that he also knew a few eunuchs in charge of the palace, and would help send a message to remind her.

Mother Jia also has arrangements, but there will be more opportunities for Lin Ruhai to help, so naturally she will not refuse.Jia's mother doesn't care about anything else, she only ensures one thing: Yuan Chun kills himself, that's fine!But if the whole family of Rong Mansion is involved in the death together, absolutely not!

"Originally, I didn't expect anything else from her. She can be a female official in peace and contentment. In the future, when the age is up, I just ask for a grace to release it. Now it's good. Seeing that there are three or two years left, she'll try her best." 'The concubine has been concubine, and she has a child. She didn't know how to restrain herself on the cusp of the storm, and made some gimmick to pray for the queen mother. Those old people, concubine Yi, concubine de, and concubine Rong didn't have the guts, but she dared!" Jia The mother curled her lips, looked at Lin Ruhai and cursed, "There are always things in this world that don't know how to live or die!"

"Calm down, the empress also wants to win for her family." Lin Ruhai comforted her.

Jia Mu smiled, and indeed agreed with Lin Ruhai's statement.Yuan Chun was really fighting for his family, but this "family" was in a narrow sense, referring only to the second room of the Rong Mansion.There are two purposes for her to pray for blessings this time.Firstly, she wanted to "stand out" herself, intending to please the Queen Mother; secondly, she wanted to trick Jia She and his wife to leave home, so that Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang could take advantage of it in Rongfu.

Jia's mother also guessed that Yuan Chun deliberately arranged the place of blessing to be Wutai Mountain, and the purpose was to eliminate the possibility of her old lady leaving.

How can Jiamu make Yuanchun fulfill her wish!

Yuan Chun never expected that Jia's mother would insist on going in her old age.

Mother Jia has been a human being for so long, and she cherishes this opportunity to be a human being very much, and she cherishes this old body the most.In the old days, when Mother Jia was raising Daiyu, she followed Daiyu to borrow light, and she tried a lot of ways to keep in good health.She had never thought about going to Mount Wutai after a long journey!But Yuanchun plotted against them, and Mother Jia would not allow her to do so.She had already made up her mind, as long as she agreed to this matter, she would spread the word around first, and then find an opportunity to let the Queen Mother hear about it.It is easy for the old lady to resonate with the old lady, and with the help of Jia Mu's good sister, the old concubine, the queen mother will definitely not bear her to leave home for Mount Wutai.In fact, even if the old concubine didn't say anything, Mother Jia believed that there would be other concubines who would say it.After all, Yuan Chun's power in the palace is too arrogant, and it will inevitably provoke people to find fault.Mother Jia revealed such a big flaw to outsiders, someone must be pinching her faults.

In this matter, Jia Mu was almost [-]% sure that she would not be able to reach Wutai Mountain, so she dared to be so "serious".

Poor boss, Jiamu tricked him into tears for nothing.

Thinking of his cheap eldest son, Jia's mother couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.Jia Amnesty is a little bit of a mess, but sometimes he really has a persistent dullness, which makes people feel warm.

As soon as the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was over, Mother Jia asked Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng to take Jia Lian, Baoyu and other gentlemen to Ningfu for the funeral.Send what should be sent, what should be said, and come back after expressing condolences.Don't help, don't say much, and there won't be any female relatives.

Jia Zhen waited for more than 20 days before seeing the people from Rong Mansion.He was so angry that when he saw someone, he rushed over angrily to comment.Jia Zheng took a step back tactfully, and let Jia Amnesty be at the forefront.

Jia Amnesty looked at the Bailings hanging everywhere in the main hall, and at the monks and priests who chanted scriptures, praised him, then turned to Jia Lian and sighed: "When your father is dead, you will be satisfied with this half-grand scene."

Just as Jia Zhen approached Jia Amnesty, she suddenly turned pale when she heard this.what does he mean?Sarcastic that his family's funeral is too big?Jia Zhen thought about it again, and suddenly felt happy.It's good to make it big, he just wants to make it big and stylish, and make the gang of grandsons in Rongfu mad!

A good family of relatives, you deserve it for it to be like this!

Jia Zhen didn't have the heart to think about whether it was up to standard or not. Qin Keqing's status was not comparable to Jia Amnesty's.

Jia Lian was clever, glanced at Jia Zhen, and quickly echoed his father's words: "This funeral is grand, father, I remember when I was young, you took me to pay condolences to the old county king, and it was not as good. It can be seen that Brother Zhen used his heart, no easy."

Jia Lian deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "not easy", which is full of irony.

Jia Zhen snorted complacently, and didn't pay attention to the meaning behind Jia Lian's words at all, thinking that Jia She and his son were jealous of his grand funeral, which is why they said sour words.

Jia Zhen's angry smile, he still has to settle the score!She didn't dare to question Jia Amnesty, so she asked Jia Lian with a bare face: "Do you still see me as the patriarch in your eyes? Let me ask you, am I the patriarch of our Jia family?"

Jia Lian hooked her lips and nodded, "It's you."

He said so, but his expression was disdainful, obviously he didn't want to recognize him.Jia Zhen clenched her fists in hatred, staring fixedly at Jia Lian's fair face, slapping the truth onto it.

Jia Lian glanced at Jia Amnesty, implying that it was time for him to say something.

Jia She coughed twice, which caught Jia Zhen's attention. Jia She pulled him and pretended to be intimate and caring and asked, "By the way, good nephew, King Beijing's birthday was celebrated on the sixth day of the lunar new year. Do you still remember?"

Jia Zhen's head buzzed for a moment, her eyes widened in surprise.

Jia Amnesty pushed his shoulder, held back a smile and continued to ask, "Ask you?"

Jia Zhen's mind went blank, allowing Jia She to shake him.After a while, his eyeballs moved and he came back to his senses.Jia Zhen's face was pale, her eyes were bulging, and the whites of her eyes gradually turned red.

Jia Lian raised his eyebrows, observing Jia Zhen's changes curiously, it became more and more interesting.This time Jia Zhen wanted to have an opinion, but he dared not.

Jia Amnesty didn't have the time to take his children to accompany Jia Zhen in a daze, so after saying goodbye, he went to the main hall to express his condolences, offered money, and then left.You Shi said that she was not sick, and Jia Zhen was like that, only the servants came to send Jia Amnesty and others in a hurry.

Laisheng sees off people and runs to Jia Zhen.When Jia Zhen saw it was him, she went up and kicked him twice.As a middle-aged man, his body was not that strong, and his whole body was ringing in this fall, and he couldn't bear the pain so much that he yelled a few times.The people who came and went to express their condolences were attracted, and they all gathered around to ask.Only then did Jia Zhen realize that the occasion was not right, and reprimanded Lai Sheng to get up quickly and let him go.

Everyone saw Jia Zhen came up and left with a limp.Everyone laughed at him for being rude, and pitied the poor servant very much.

I really didn't expect that this Zhongding family would be so harsh on the servants, it can be seen that the masters are not good people!Associating with this kind of people, not only can't put gold on your face, it's almost like sticky shit.

Remember, don't come with Ning Mansion in the future!

Jia Zhen led Lai Sheng and Bao Er to the wing room.As soon as they entered the door, Jia Zhen turned around and kicked the two of them in their stomachs.Lai Sheng and Bao Er were so wronged that they clutched their stomachs and rolled on the ground screaming in pain.

"It hurts your mother!" Jia Zhen cursed and spat at the two of them.

Jia Rong came to check the situation, and was scolded by Jia Zhen as soon as she entered the door.

"You are also a good-for-nothing. You say you, two of your daughter-in-laws have died, and you are not successful at all. Even Jia Cong from Rongfu is better than you! You are a good-for-nothing!"

Jia Rong was puzzled, but he knew that his father was not easy to mess with at the moment, so he lowered his head obediently and remained silent.

With her hands behind her back, Jia Zhen hurriedly wandered back and forth in the Invincible Center.Tired from walking, he turned his head and glanced at the three of them, shouting: "You guys are talking, don't you usually talk a lot!"

The bodies of the three of them all trembled, and they didn't dare to say anything.

Jia Zhen was out of breath, and her eyes finally fell on the big blue and white porcelain vase on the four-legged stool.He picked it up with both hands and fell heavily to the ground.

The three of them all backed away a few steps in fright.

"A bunch of useless things!"

Jia Rong finally trembled and asked Jia Zhen what happened.

Jia Zhen got even angrier when she heard this, and yelled at them with her hands behind her back: "I ask you, how can you forget such an important event as King Beijing's birthday. Just forget one, how can you forget all of them!"

The three suddenly realized that you look at me and I look at you.

Jia Zhen kicked the broken porcelain on the ground, gritted her teeth and said, "What are you doing for raising you!"

"I-I really forgot, Lord, please forgive me! It's because we are busy with grandma's funeral these days, and there are too many chores, and the little ones are already confused, so, I have neglected it." Lai Sheng kowtowed and apologized. .

Bao Er followed and kowtowed.

Jia Rong said good things to the two of them, and she also helped herself in disguise: "Father, it really happened suddenly. At that time, everyone was busy with funerals. It's useless to regret now. We should think of a way to make up for it."

Jia Zhen snorted coldly: "It's easy for you to say, but what do you say?"

"This—" Jia Rong stammered.

Jia Zhen glared at him: "It's useless!"

Jia Rong pursed her lips, not daring to make mistakes on the surface, but she slandered Jia Zhen in her heart: Are you promising?Don't you always forget everything, you really have the face to criticize others!

Jia Rong thought about it for a while, and said to Jia Zhen: "That's not right, the King of Beijing is celebrating his birthday, someone at the Rong Mansion should remember that we didn't go, and they should be informed."

"I got it, I only got it today!" Jia Zhen suddenly came to her senses and said bitterly, "They clearly did it on purpose! If they had told me earlier, even if it was a gift at the night of the birthday, they would just use the funeral as an excuse , Prince Jing of Beijing is reasonable and will definitely understand us. But now it is good, after so many days, how can we say it, how can we say it!"

"It's all the Rongfu's fault! It's too heartless!" Jia Rong echoed.He didn't care who his father transferred his anger to, as long as it wasn't on him.

Jia Zhen was so angry that she clenched her fist and smashed the table: "Rongguo Mansion, I am at odds with you!"

The gift that Jia Zhen sent Lai Sheng, Jia Rong and others to give to King Beijing was twice as much as in previous years, which was quite generous.The next day, Jia Zhen came to the door to give gifts in person to apologize for the mistake.What he said was that he was afraid that the funeral would be unlucky and would hit the King of Beijing.

King Beijing Jing was meeting with guests, so he took the time to meet Xia Jia Zhen, smiled, and said gently that he didn't mind.He is a well-known good-tempered prince, so of course he would not lose his grace in person.

Only then did Jia Zhen feel relieved, and said goodbye obediently.

As soon as the person left, King Beijing asked the housekeeper to open the box to check the gift.There is a small golden Buddha, and some vulgar objects of gold, silver and jewels.

King Beijing snorted and sent the butler, "Tomorrow, I will go to the Rong Mansion to express my condolences, so I will take these."

The butler was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that the prince wanted to return these things in the name of gift money.No, how could their Beijing Palace be so easy to fool.

Should!

☆, Section 777

The next day, Jia Zhen saw the housekeeper of the Beijing Prince's Mansion come to express condolences in person, so Bel had a face.With a proud face, he took the butler to introduce to everyone.The housekeeper of the palace was very impatient and not polite at all, and said goodbye to Jia Zhen directly.

Jia Zhen smiled and ordered Jia Rong to send him off, only because he was eager to go back to return to the king of Beijing.Looking back, when Jia Zhen saw anyone, she said that someone had come from the Beijing Prince's Mansion, and she also brought a box of heavy gifts to express her condolences.

Everyone complimented Jia Zhen because of this, although the Ning family's generation is not good, but they can still get along by relying on the popularity of their ancestors.Going to the funeral is lifeless, and there is nothing to play.Everyone was bored, so they all instigated Jia Zhen to open the box and have a look, and also told them to see the things in the palace.

Jia Zhen was happy, and waved her arms grandly, signaling to come and open the box.Laisheng happily agreed, and took a servant to open the box himself. When he saw the brocade box on top of the box, his heart skipped a beat.Laisheng stretched out his hand to open the box, but saw a familiar golden Buddha lying there upright.Laisheng's face turned pale.Jia Rong was close, and when she saw her, her complexion was not good-looking.

Everyone saw that the expressions of these two people were not right, and they all wanted to move forward to take a look.Laisheng hurriedly closed the box, and looked at Jia Zhen with embarrassing eyes.

Knowing that there was a problem, Jia Zhen played haha ​​and perfunctory everyone.

Everyone sighed in their hearts, knowing that there was something wrong with it, most of the things Beijing Jing Wang sent were not good things.

It seems that the relationship between Prince Jing and Ningguo Mansion is not so good!

Jia Rong took Lai Sheng and others to carry the things down.Jia Zhen pulled away to find the two and asked why.Jia Rong and Laisheng didn't say anything, just opened the box and showed him.When Jia Zhen saw the brocade box and the gold, silver and jewels in the box, she understood everything.

Lai Sheng had a bitter face, and said in mourning, "My lord, my lord has returned all the things we gave you."

"Oh my God!" Jia Zhen turned pale and took a few steps back, almost falling, but fortunately Jia Rong supported her from behind.Jia Zhen was so frightened that even her lips turned pale, her eyes were pale all the way to her neck.This time it's over!

Jia Rong helped Jia Zhen to sit down, and persuaded: "I think the prince is young and energetic, and he is just angry for a while. The ancestors of our two families were considered close friends back then, and the prince has always been kind to our house. After a while, wait His anger has subsided, let's go to the door again to apologize, so as to show loyalty."

"My lord has never been a stingy person, what's wrong this time." Jia Zhen frowned and complained, still refusing to admit that the main fault was his.

Lai Sheng rolled his eyes, and said falteringly: "I don't know if I should say something, but if I say it, I'm afraid you will be angry, master."

"What time is it, you're still moaning!" Jia Zhen yelled.

Lai Sheng shrank his neck, and said aggrievedly: "It's the Rong Mansion. I heard people say that when the Beijing King's birthday was presented, Master She gave a big gift. Tianshan Red Lotus, that's a good thing that's hard to come by. .”

Jia Zhen heard smoke from her orifices, slapped the table and scolded: "What did I say, why did the prince suddenly look down on us? It's because they gave this kind of thing. Why didn't the prince see that they gave such a good one, but this year he saw me and forgot It’s a gift, and I specially gave such a good thing. Isn’t this just slapping our Ning Mansion and embarrassing us. Who knows, when the word "Jia" is mentioned in the capital, the Rongning and Ning Mansions have always been tied up He said it. He gave such a good thing, but he didn't tell me. If the prince makes such a comparison, he will despise us!"

"What the master said is very true, the Rongguo Mansion is too hateful!" Jia Rong quickly echoed.At this time, you have to follow Jia Zhen's anger, otherwise it would be bad for him to vent his anger on him.

Jia Zhen couldn't bear it anymore, and brought her son to the Rong Mansion to settle the score.

Jia Amnesty was not at court.Jia Zheng stayed at home leisurely and came to see Jia Zhen sleepily.Jia Zhen was upset when she saw that he looked like he had drunk too much last night.As soon as he came up, he got angry at Jia Zheng and blamed Rongfu for his faults.

"...How could you treat us like this, huh?"

Jia Zheng felt that the Rong family was at fault for the Beijing King's congratulations, "You and I are relatives, so we should remind each other. I didn't think of this. If I knew you didn't know it, I would have let others know." I'll meet you."

Jia Zhen saw that Jia Zheng had a good attitude, most of her anger subsided, and her tone softened, "Second Uncle Zheng, you think I'm right, don't you. It's really your Rongfu's fault for this matter."

"Hey, don't rely on me, this matter has nothing to do with me. Don't you know what I'm doing at home now? This matter is all your pardoning uncle and the old lady's idea. I can't help it!" Jia Zheng spread his hands, showing a helpless look, and his eyes shot out extremely sympathetic.

Uncle Zheng was right, he was indeed not involved in this matter.Jia Zhen shifted her anger to Jia Amnesty and the old lady, clamoring to see them for judgment.

Jia Zheng wanted Jia Zhen to make trouble, so he asked someone to lead him to find Jia Mu.Jia Zheng didn't dare to cause trouble, so he tactfully stayed away and watched the situation with a cold eye.If the snipe and the clam are not allowed to compete, the fisherman will benefit.

Jia's mother was eating melon seeds leisurely, and when she saw Jia Zhen and his son coming in, she let them sit down with a sound of oops.

Jia Rong immediately thanked Li and sat down.Jia Zhen twisted with Jia's mother, stood instead of sitting, and glared at Jia Rong.Jia Rong shrank her neck in fright, stood up too, and stood with Jia Zhen.

Mother Jia looked at them both strangely, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why, father and son are here to attack?"

"No, it's not." Jia Zhen subconsciously denied it, then reacted immediately, coughed twice and said, "To tell you the truth, this junior came to you for comment today."

"Interesting." Mother Jia blinked, motioning for Jia Zhen to continue.

"There is a funeral in the Ning Manor, and I have a request from you, so it's fine if you don't help. It's King Beijing's birthday, and when you go to pay your respects, the whole family doesn't even know it. Sending off, is it embarrassing to stay in vain? Old lady, you are already old, and you eat more salt than I eat rice, you shouldn’t care about us juniors.” Jia Zhen’s words were prepared all night, and she practiced repeatedly Read, it really sounds smooth today.Otherwise, with Jia's mother's posture, if Jia Zhen hadn't prepared ahead, she might really be speechless.

"The relationship between the two governments has weakened. You have to admit it. The reason for the discord between the two families is also because you were the first to criticize, so you have to admit it." Jia Mu glanced at Jia Zhen, saw that his face was not good, and slowed down. The tone of her voice changed, she didn't want this fellow to faint before finishing speaking.

No one listens to a poisonous tongue, it's so boring.

Jia Zhen's heartbeat quickened, and when Jia's mother paused, he calmed down a bit and continued to enter the state of preparation.

Jia Mu went on to say: "Whether to go to the palace to pay homage is your own business, and what kind of gift we give is our own business. This is the reason! You can talk about it, what reason can you 'comment'. You The dignified master of Ningguo Mansion is now running to me, complaining to my old lady about these things. Why, to prove that you are incompetent? Or do you want me to see more of your jokes?"

"..." Jia Zhen's lips trembled angrily, her teeth chattered up and down, "Old lady, you are too deceitful!"

"If this counts as bullying, come and bully me if you have the guts, you have no complaints!" Jia's mother glared at Jia Zhen and provoked her, but Jia Zhen was scared away.Jia Zhen stumbled back a few steps, and with Jia Rong's support and drag, the father and son staggered and escaped from Jia's mother's flower hall.

Mother Jia slapped the table regretfully, she just threw a small landmine, why did the other party leave.How embarrassing are these rocket launchers and diving bombs?

Yuanyang prepared her luggage and came to report to Jia Mu one by one, and asked Jia Mu if there was anything else she wanted to bring.

Mother Jia thought about it carefully, and told Yuanyang seriously: "Guazi."

Yuanyang smiled: "It's already ready, the original flavor, the salty flavor, the spiced flavor, and the pepper and salt flavor. The cook was afraid that you would get tired of these flavors, so he specially made green tea flavor and plum flavor for you. of."

Jia Mu was overjoyed, her brows and eyes narrowed into a line with a smile: "It sounds delicious."

Jia's mother handed over a letter and the key to the warehouse to the maid Zhenzhu who was guarding the house. "Although it's unlikely, we still have to make preparations. Once I can't come back, gather the whole family and hand over the letter and the key to the boss in public."

Pearl nodded, and she felt inexplicably sad when she heard Jia Mu's words, and cried.

"Silly girl, I will definitely come back." Mother Jia smiled, and pinched her cheek lightly, coaxing Pearl to smile.

The next day, under the watchful eyes of all the children of Rongfu, Jiamu drove to Fahua Temple.Among the accompanying boys, there are a few freshmen with excellent skills.

Fahua Temple and Jiamu are also very close.At the beginning, the elder and second wife of the Rong Mansion had come here to "respect the Buddha", and Mother Jia often asked people to offer incense money.Although Master Abbot didn't know Jia Mu's real face, he had already heard her name like thunder.The abbot regarded Jiamu as a guest of honor, and personally led all the monks to stand at the door to welcome Jiamu.

The abbot specially arranged for Jia Mu to live in the plum blossom courtyard with the most beautiful scenery in Fahua Temple.Now is the season of plum blossoms blooming, and the garden is full of plum fragrance, refreshing and refreshing.

After settling down, Jiamu visited Fahua Temple under the leadership of the abbot.There are several Buddhist halls, and Jia Mu never forgets to worship wherever she goes.The abbot couldn't help nodding, he must have appreciated Jiamu's dedication to Buddha.

After a group of people arrived at the back mountain and passed several gazebos, there was a small stream separating the two sides of the bamboo forest.Jia Mu stood by the stream, and she could see that there were several scratches on the bamboo on the other side of the message.The bamboo forest is so dense that you can't see the depth.

Jia Mu didn't stay long, didn't ask any more questions, and pretended to be tired, going back to rest.

The abbot twirled his long white beard, and said slowly: "There really isn't much to appreciate in this back mountain. It's better for the old lady to go back to rest earlier."

Jia Mu smiled and nodded, and said gently: "In the past, when I worshiped Buddha, I just walked around the front hall. Today, I asked the abbot to lead the way, and finally I can see the whole picture of Fahua Temple. The place of Buddhism is really clear and distant, extraordinary. Now just So far, I don't know how many worldly distractions have become less in my heart."

"Amitabha." The abbot put his palms together and read aloud, smiled slightly, and ordered the little monk to send Jiamu back.The abbot stood on the spot, watching their backs disappear with a smile, so Fang suppressed his smile, turned around and crossed the stream, and walked straight to the depths of the bamboo forest.

……

On February [-]th, Ningguo Mansion held a funeral.

The three county kings heard the wind and learned that King Beijing would not hold a road sacrifice, so they followed suit and did not hold one.All the families took the four county kings as a lesson, and they didn't set up road sacrifices either.Only a few families such as Wang and Xue who had good relations with Ningguo Mansion offered sacrifices.

The funeral in Ningguo Mansion was very grand, but the "scenery" on the road was less.

,
