The Maid's Strategy in the Red Chamber

Grand View Garden

After hearing Xueyan's answer, Hu Po was stunned for a long time and didn't come to her senses. How many maids in Jia's mansion are not interested in Baoyu?Even Zijuan was all smiles when she saw Baoyu, eh, why didn't this Xueyan take him seriously at all?

Amber couldn't help asking, "Why?"

Xueyan thought for a while, so she didn't need to talk about her shocking thoughts.He only smiled lightly and said: "Second Master Bao is very good in your eyes. With the Second Wife and the Xue family alone, my master would not be willing to let the girl deal with such a complicated environment."

"Which big family is not complicated?" Amber muttered.

Xueyan smiled slightly: "But the second master's family has been separated. Now that the old lady is alive, the second room can still benefit from the first room, but what about the future?"

"In the future, won't there be a concubine?" Amber was puzzled.

Xueyan replied: "But can you help the second master get the title?" Jia Yuanchun should be around [-] this year, right?At such an old age, she is already a grandmother in ordinary people's homes. I am afraid that the chance of pregnancy is not high. Even if she can really give birth to a healthy prince, whether she can raise him safely is another matter...

So, unless they are the empress dowager, what use are the concubines in the palace to the natal family except for their titles?Of course, if you can live

A prince and princess can still get a little bit of light.

In short, in the end, Xueyan managed to get rid of Hubo's little reverie about Baoyu.

Seeing Hu Po's dazed back, Xue Yan propped her chin in thought: Everyone has their own ambitions, so I don't know if it's right for me to hit other people's confidence in wanting to be an aunt.

Not long after, Jia Yuanchun from the palace sent out a decree, saying that the Grand View Garden is quite beautiful, and it would be a pity if it was abandoned, so the sisters in the family were invited to live there, of course Jia Baoyu's share was indispensable.

When she was reading the original book, Xue Yan felt that Yuan Chun's decree was very surprising, men and women had different seats at seven years old.Even if Jia Baoyu is your own younger brother, he is already thirteen or fourteen years old now, and he has already met Keqing in his dreams and tried to attack people.It is really inappropriate to arrange him with a group of sisters.

But after all, this is the will of the empress, even Jia's mother can't object, of course she is actually happy to see it come true.Daiyu is thin-skinned and can't refuse, but Nanny Liu is not easy to get along with. She said directly to Jia Mu: "Your Majesty's kindness, it's not easy to refuse. It's just a saying that 'the girl is seven years old and not at the same table', my girl Unlike all the girls in the family, they are not direct sisters, if they live in the same garden, it will inevitably be indecent to spread the word, so forget it."

As soon as these words came out, Jia's mother was a little displeased, and Mrs. Xing smoothed things over and said: "In this case, let's forget it and let Yu'er live in the original courtyard. After all, she is still in charge of the Lin family's affairs in Beijing. If Living in the garden is somewhat inconvenient."

After hearing these words, and seeing Wang's secretly delighted appearance, Jia's mother sighed in her heart: Oh, this Wang is really short-sighted, a merchant

How could the daughter of the family be as noble as the daughter of a third-rank family member, not to mention that Yu'er is not only good-looking but also a good housekeeper, why... In the future, these two Yu'er may be in trouble!

On the contrary, Jia Baoyu came over after hearing the news and murmured: "Sister Lin looks like a fairy in the world, why is she so vulgar in her bones? Dealing with those gold and silver vulgar objects all day long, no one will make you vulgar, sister." gone."

Hearing this, Daiyu sneered: "I'm just an ordinary person, and I can't compare myself to the second master of Bao Bao. I only hope that the second master will still have the same mentality ten years later!"

Baoyu knew she had made a slip of the tongue, so she wanted to say a few soft words to make peace, but Daiyu had already gone back to her room. The maids and women in Zhuquan Courtyard were not vegetarians, and they never let Baoyu enter the courtyard by themselves.Baoyu could only watch helplessly as Daiyu's back got farther and farther away from her until she disappeared on the other side of the bamboo forest and could not be seen again.

The two broke up unhappy, which made Baoyu feel a little lost even if he moved to the Grand View Garden.However, Mrs. Xing didn't like the three words "Yihongyuan" in the original book very much. No matter how she heard it, she found it unpleasant, so she urged Jia Zheng to mention the three words "Qingxiyuan". The "Yihong Courtyard" that I think about is much better.

We always have to pick a date when we move. Jia She and the others negotiated and picked a date of February 22 for everyone to move in.I have to say that Jia Amnesty was very thoughtful, and built the entrance to the park in the Rongguo Mansion instead of Jia Zheng's home early in the morning.In this way, the whole garden is under his supervision, and those bastards in the second room of the province have done some unknown disasters to bring down the reputation of the big room.It's not easy for him to build roads and donate porridge carefully in the past few years. It's not easy for him to get a good reputation, and he must not be ruined by others.

In addition, moving is not something that can be done in one mouthful. It is not so easy to clean up and arrange decorations everywhere.

On this day, Wang Xifeng found Mrs. Xing's place because of something: "These sisters used to live together, and there are only a few maids and women around them. Now that they are moving to the garden, should we add some people?"

Mrs. Xing asked: "How many maidservants are there beside Yingmaid?"

Wang Xifeng hurriedly said: "Originally, there were no first-class maids around the girls. Back then, my wife was considerate of Ying'er and gave her two first-class maids and two second-class maids. Now she has two first-class maids and four second-class maids. Wait, there are four little maids, four wives. The third and fourth girls have only two second-class and four third-class, and four wives."

Mrs. Xing said: "It's not that there are too few people, just Ying'er, let's add two more little girls to the third and fourth girls. The Ying girls are about to grow up, and they won't be able to live in the garden for long, so there's no need to bother." It's too much. It's the right thing to pay attention to preparing her a reliable dowry with two families."

Hearing this, Wang Xifeng hurriedly laughed and said: "After all, it is my wife who has a kind heart and has a very long-term plan for my second sister."

"Her mother is gone. If I don't think for her, who will think for her? Besides, although we don't expect her to marry well, if she can marry a good family, it will be a help to you two in the future. Your father and I They are all people with their necks buried in the soil, so why don’t you brothers and sisters watch and help each other in the future?” Madam Xing took a sip of tea and suddenly asked, “By the way, why haven’t I seen Brother Lian these days?”

Wang Xifeng hurriedly said: "It's not the mother's order. The garden was not prepared for people to live in, and the beds inside have to be rearranged. The second master is busy with this matter."

Mrs. Xing sneered and said: "He really regards himself as an uncle of the country, and he makes a fool of himself when he says a word, so be careful

it is good. "

Hearing this, Wang Xifeng felt a "thump" in his heart: Why does this sound wrong?
