[Red Mansion] The adopted son of the Lin family

However, in the past two days, Jia Min said that he was not well, so he avoided everyone's greetings, and only let the servants and maids in the mansion greet him outside the courtyard once a day.Nanny Lai went to see it twice in person, but she was persuaded by Lu Rou and Hong Xing to go back in a friendly voice, saying, "My wife is not feeling well right now. She will be tired when she sees Nanny. Anyway, Nanny feels sorry for our wife. He is a person with twin bodies, but you can talk to your wife again in a few days."

After hearing this, Nanny Lai didn't suspect anything else, she just thought that she came to Yangzhou all the way, and she was entrusted by Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang again, and she and her wife took it here just as they should rest for a day or two. Talk about the butler.Who would have thought that this lady is so weak, she has only been pregnant for more than three months, and she can't even leave the courtyard.The more I thought about it, the more bored I became, and I simply refused to send someone to pay my respects outside the courtyard.

After Hongxing found out, she snorted coldly and said, "It can be seen that this person's respect is more or less feigned! Even the serious housekeepers Zhang Nanny and Fang Nanny come to my wife every day to report, and she is like this!"

Lurou was also angry, but she acted prudently, so she had to think about what she said for a long time.Seeing what Hong Xing said, she persuaded: "Speak in a low voice, don't let your wife know, it will add more trouble to your heart. Besides, what's the value of having one more person or one less person to greet you, it's just everyone It's just my mind."

"My sister taught me a lesson, but I don't always make progress. I'm so tired that my sister is worried."

No matter what the situation in Jia Min's courtyard is, Mammy Lai is living very well during this period of time.

"Oh, it's old sister who is happy here." Wang Momo walked to the door of Lai Momo's house, and saw a clever little girl pulling up the curtain. After entering the room, she saw three little girls standing in the room, looking like They are all neat and orderly, and they can't help but smack their lips. "Speaking of which, I've been here for more than three years, and I can't compare to my old sister who only came here for a day or two."

Nanny Lai smiled when she heard the words, and ordered a little girl who was beating her legs to pour some tea, and then let Nanny Wang sit on the kang, saying that she should be happy and talk.

Wang Momo was wondering why Lai Momo came to her, when Lai Momo pursed her lips and smiled, and took out a stack of silver notes, a few gold hairpins and an emerald from an inconspicuous locked box at her hand. bracelet.He smiled and said: "Old sister, don't say that I don't remember you for all good things. Look, are these things useful or not?"

Wang Momo hurriedly took it over, seeing the gold hairpin, she didn't think so, it was just an old-fashioned flowery shape, but the emerald green jade bracelet was cool in her hand, and it was very important.He picked up the bracelet and held it up to the light. The head of the water was really pleasing.Wang Momo couldn't help but put away the bracelet, and saw a stack of banknotes on the table, just glanced at it, and immediately felt itchy.That's terrible, it's all a stack of 50 denominations of silver bills!

In other words, this mother Wang has been in the Lin family for more than three years, and she has never seen many good ones, so how can she be so shallow-sighted.However, you must know that since she came to Lin's residence, everything is very different from Jia's residence.When I was in Jia's house in the past, I just ran errands to spread the word that as long as I showed my face in front of the master, I could get a large reward.It can range from a few hundred dollars to a few silver barley seeds.But this Lin Mansion looks like a noble scholar's family, and the aunt's family is the most solid. I thought that doing things here would naturally get a lot of money, but who would have thought that it would not be the case.

Mother Wang came to the Lin Mansion, and she couldn't find anything wrong with the food and clothing. Although the food was not delicacies, it was exquisite and rich.But how can I say otherwise, this person has to think twice when he has one thing.Nanny Wang was used to rewarding people in Jia's mansion, so she was really uncomfortable here, and she couldn't say it directly.Everyone in the house looked at her as a nanny sent by the wife's natal family, and everyone respected her. She had a real face, but few people showed filial piety even though she was a purse.

Seeing so much money right now, it's like someone who hasn't eaten meat for many days, even his eyes are brightened when he sees meat.

Nanny Lai was a little amused by Nanny Wang's attitude, but how can I say it, after all, she was sent from one place, so she couldn't take it easy for such an unacceptable idea.Because he suppressed the disdain in his heart, he just smiled and said: "Old sister, this money is honored by someone, why don't you accept it quickly."

"It's rare that someone wants to honor me?" Mother Wang was surprised, but her hands were not slow, she took the thick stack of banknotes and put them into her bosom.

"On weekdays, you also wrote letters to me from trustees, complaining inside and outside that there is no one in the house who can understand clearly. I thought, after all, the wife is too strict in running the house, and the rules are different. One place, at least you can bear it anyway. But looking at it now, it’s your fault, old sister.” After speaking, he took a sip of hot tea, and then said: “Who do you think gave the 1000 taels of silver? Old lady? Second wife? Let me tell you, neither."

When Wang Momo heard it, she became even more surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Who sent it?"

"Isn't it the one who lives in the yard on the west side?" After speaking, Nanny Lai pursed her lips, with gloating gloating in her eyes. "I just said, which place doesn't have these secrets in the big family. Only this aunt's house doesn't have it? It's just that they hide it on weekdays, and the wife is lazy and careless, so it doesn't show up."

Then he said in a low voice: "I'm not talking about you. Since you are the nanny next to the girl, why don't you know that there are so many people staring at this yard on weekdays, so you can't get in. You just need to make a convenience The door, isn't this money easy to grab?"

"Old sister said it so easily, how can I know my difficulties. Not to mention my wife staring at me, even those maids and women in the yard, are they all dead?" He sighed again, "Why don't I know those girls? My aunt's thoughts are just that we should think about our wife, how can we give that screwdriver a black-hearted advantage."

But Nanny Lai clapped her hands and smiled, and said: "You, I always say you are good on weekdays, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid." Seeing that there were only a few young girls in the room, she then He didn't take it too seriously, and just said to himself: "Depending on how those black-hearted people mess around, you only accept the benefits of their filial piety, and as for them wanting to let people in, you only pick and let them go. That's all for coming in. Don't say that they don't dare to use some tricks, even if they have the courage, are you dead? Could it be that everyone in this yard is dead? Caught One just returns to the wife's decision."

Seeing that Grandma Wang's eyes widened after hearing this, Nanny Lai couldn't help but smiled and said, "You are honest, you just complain every day that the reward is not enough for you to eat, drink and gamble. Don’t see it.” Pointing to the watery emerald green jadeite bracelet in Wang Momo’s hand, he laughed and said, “Do you think this bracelet was given to you for nothing? Tomorrow, I’m just looking for a name to pick a job.” The little girl just enters the courtyard to serve."

"Isn't this a bad thing?" Mother Wang was a little afraid because she had stayed in Lin's mansion for three years, and she was used to the way people in this mansion behaved differently from Jia's mansion.He just thought that if someone caught him in the wrong place, he would lose all the face he had earned over the past few decades.

Seeing her like this, Nanny Lai spat secretly in her heart: After all, she is a person who can't do big things, and just a little bit more things just gossip like this.Thinking again, this stack of banknotes and that jadeite bracelet, this Wang Momo's hands are fast.Yin said coldly: "Old sister, don't blame me for talking about you, but yourself. When you received those bank notes and bracelets, didn't you think about these later things? How about you, could it be that you just thought Isn’t there a free lunch in the world?”

Grandma Wang was ridiculed by Nanny Lai, her face blushed involuntarily, and she suddenly felt ashamed.She thought again, at least she has been in the Lin Manor for three years, how could she be so insignificant in front of Nanny Lai.Yin said with a shy smile: "Old sister, what are you talking about, at least let me think about it, how can I make it so that people don't see it."

"Hey, what's so difficult about it, you just listen to it." Nanny Lai said this in a low voice, and Nanny Wang was really interested, and she was about to do it in a hurry.Nanny Lai just smiled and said, "What's the rush? How old are you, do you have the patience to even have such an idea? Just wait until tomorrow." She pointed to a little girl in the room who was lighting a fumigation cage and said, "How about you Go get some wine, I want to have a meal with your mother Wang."

The girl went to get the wine by herself, and she stayed in the room until Nanny Lai and Nanny Wang were drunk and fell asleep, not to mention.On the contrary, the four little girls serving in Nanny Lai's room looked at each other with disgust.There is also a girl among them, no doubt the licorice who replied the other day.Because she looks neat, although she is young, she speaks sharply and works diligently. When she saw her, Nanny Lai liked her a little.Thinking again, this girl is only a few years old, so it's better to stay by her side to serve her.Then I went back to Jia Min, and only said that when I saw this girl, I thought of my children and grandchildren, so that most of the sadness of being away from home would be lost.As a matter of fact, I begged Jia Min to keep this girl by her side to serve her.

Unexpectedly, this girl was ordered secretly by Lin Ze long before Jia Min came to find her.She used to be the smartest one, but she used to think that she was a child of the family, and she kept the rules well.Seeing that Lin Ze could use her, he was naturally willing in every possible way.Hearing Zhang Nanny's training again, she was even more loyal and didn't mention it.

Seeing Nanny Lai and Nanny Wang this time, although I feel disgusted in my heart, they have been trained for a long time, and there are some ups and downs.Then he said to the other three serving girls: "I'd like to trouble the two of you to serve here, and it's important to let only one of you follow me back to Nanny Zhang."

Although the three maids were not as clever as Licorice, they were the most responsible. After hearing what Lai Momo and Wang Momo said, they were already in shock.Seeing that Licorice had some ideas, she refused to do so, so she just followed her.Then a little girl named Liu Ye went to Nanny Zhang to answer with Licorice, while the other two girls were still in the house.

To put it bluntly, Nanny Zhang was reconciling the account books with Nanny Fang, when a little girl outside reported that the licorice and willow leaves that served Nanny Lai in the girl's yard had come to say hello.It was strange in my heart that they were allowed to come in after waiting so long, and when they articulated everything Lai Momo and Wang Momo had said, the expressions on their faces became even more ugly.

Nanny Fang threw a teacup viciously, and said angrily, "These two old bastards are so courageous!"

Nanny Zhang was also very angry, but she thought about what Aunt Li said, and after thinking for a while, she clapped her hands and sneered, "It's a good plan, Sister Fang, what you said earlier is now But it has to be used."

Nanny Fang raised her eyebrows, thought about it, and then smiled, but the smile on her lips became colder and colder.
