Honglou Xing

Mrs. Wang's mind was buzzing, as if thousands of flies were flying in her mind.Mrs. Wang looked at Xing Shi who was saying goodbye to her in a daze, and saw the smile on her face that she had never had before, and she just looked at it numbly.Mrs. Wang blinked, completely unaware of what she was doing, she couldn't hear anything except the humming in her head.

In the end, I don't know what Xing said to her with a smile, but she left anyway.

Madam Wang breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Zhou Rui's family put on a bitter face, and muttered to Mrs. Wang worriedly.Mrs. Wang watched her red and brown lips move up and down, but still couldn't hear what she said.

Zhou Rui's family talked a lot, tried their best to speak, and saw that Mrs. Wang didn't respond at all, so they realized that something was wrong.She hurriedly stretched out her hand and shook it in front of Mrs. Wang's eyes. Seeing Mrs. Wang blinking, Zhou Rui's family hurriedly helped Mrs. Wang sit down and rest.

"Ma'am, are you all right?"

Mrs. Wang raised her empty eyes and stared at Zhou Rui's house.

"Mrs?"

Mrs. Wang shook her lips, and wanted to speak, but found that her whole body was exhausted, her eyes went dark, and she didn't know anything.

Zhou Rui's family yelled and moved Mrs. Wang to the bed together with the maids, asking the doctor for a pulse diagnosis.When Jia's mother heard that her second daughter-in-law had made a fool of herself, she hurried over. She wanted to explain herself, but she saw Mrs. Wang lying in bed.

Mother Jia couldn't help feeling guilty in her heart, she burst into tears, and pulled her second daughter-in-law to shed a few tears.

Mrs. Wang was slightly better after being given acupuncture by the doctor.She smiled at Jia's mother with difficulty, "My daughter-in-law is not filial and asked you to worry about me."

Mother Jia patted the back of Mrs. Wang's hand and said with tears: "I was negligent about this matter. After I discussed it with my eldest daughter-in-law, I went to rest because I was too upset, but I forgot about you. We have nothing to do with the housekeeper. It's all right not to fight, left and right is a thankless job. You are old, why bother to make her work alone. Let's take care of it, okay?"

Now that the matter has come to this point, it is useless for Mrs. Wang to talk more.She can't take her anger out on Jiamu, and lose her only security in Rongfu.

Mother Jia sighed, patted the back of her daughter-in-law's hand, and gave a few more instructions before leading them away.

On the way, Mother Jia thought of Baoyu's child, so she stopped by to see him.Now both the mother and son of the second room are sick, which really makes people anxious.

Jia Mu was afraid that she would spare Baoyu's rest, so she stepped lightly.The old lady who was guarding the gate hurried over to inform: "Coincidentally, the eldest lady just came to see Second Master Bao."

Mother Jia was shocked, but she didn't expect Mrs. Xing to come at this time.What is she doing this for?To visit Baoyu, or to embarrass Baoyu?Mother Jia was uncertain, so she held her breath and signaled to everyone in the courtyard to keep quiet.She asked Yuanyang to help her, and quietly went to the door, she wanted to see which song Xing was going to sing.If she really finds out some bad ways, don't blame her for turning her face on the spot.

Xing asked someone to move a stool in front of Baoyu's bed, and she sat down safely.

Baoyu woke up early and looked at Xing shyly, angry and afraid.

"I've wanted to talk to you for a long time. I just happen to be free today, so your mind should be clear." Xing said.

Baoyu half leaned on the big cushion at the head of the bed, lowered her head, as if she was in conflict with Xing's words.

"Your mother is ill." Xing said.

Baoyu raised his head in surprise when he heard the words, as if he had heard the news for the first time, he asked Mrs. Xing nervously: "How is Madam Xing? Have you asked for a doctor? How many days have you been sick? Really, why is such an important matter so important?" No one told me!"

"I guess the old ancestor was worried that you would know, worrying too much, making your illness worse, so they told people to hide it from you. I think differently from her old man, and you are not young. This is your mother's disease. Yes, you should know."

Baoyu looked at Xing Shi, and got up to see it.

"I'm not in a hurry, just listen to me." Xing said flatly, without any doubt.

Baoyu was so frightened that he shrank back into the bed, lowered his head, and returned to the previous state of fear.

"What is the cause of your illness this time? You know very well in your heart. I don't need to explain it clearly."

Baoyu secretly looked up at Xing.

Xing didn't seem to notice Baoyu's small movements, and continued her conversation without focusing her eyes. "No matter what petty thoughts you have about other girls, it's useless to cry, make trouble, and hang yourself. If you count your food and clothing expenses in this family, which one can you give yourself? When everyone asks you to study, you get annoyed, and you lose your temper. But have you ever thought that your parents and elders have raised and cared for you so much, and given you so much, have you ever done something to feed them back? thing?"

Baoyu lowered his head even more after hearing Xing's words.

"Don't you think it's ridiculous for you to lie sickly in bed and get sick for some boring reason? Your mother is sick, and I haven't seen you in such a hurry. Our second master Bao, I really want to know what's going on in your belly. What are you pretending to be, sisters in your mouth are love, brothers and sisters are righteousness. And we, parents and elders who give you food and clothing, tell you to study, is it like poisoning you?"

Baoyu pursed her lips and began to shed tears.

"Don't make trouble, no matter how long you are sick, I will still send you back to the academy as soon as you recover. Now you have no ability to resist me, so you can only listen to our arrangements. I really hope that one day, Your wings are hardened, kick me high and high, and prove your ability to me. I'll wait!" Xing said provocatively.

Baoyu is a man, with a bit of blood in his bones.Hearing Xing's words, his self-esteem was aroused, and he looked at her unconvinced.

Mrs. Xing smiled: "Very good." Mrs. Xing got up, turned her head and told Xiren to help Baoyu to see Mrs. Wang.

Fearing the majesty of the Xing family, Xiren bowed his head and responded honestly.

Xing smiled at Xiren's change, but didn't bother to argue with a maid. "Let's go back and prepare luggage for your second master. If he's fine in two days, tell him to go back to the academy."

Xiren was slightly surprised, probably not expecting it to happen so quickly.Although she felt reluctant, she still had to follow the orders of the housekeeper's wife.

When Aunt Xue heard that Baoyu was leaving, she ran more diligently to her sister, Mrs. Wang's courtyard.After hearing Mrs. Wang's complaints, Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang tactfully mentioned Baoyu's marriage.

"I see that the child is gradually becoming more sensible, and it's time to settle down."

Mrs. Wang understands what she means, why do you know: "You know what I mean, we are sisters, if we don't kiss, who will we kiss? It's just that the old lady is not sure, and now there is another house in this house. Fight against me everywhere. Last time she made me lose face in front of the women in charge. Now I haven't recovered from it. I really don't have the mood to think about other things. Wait a little longer. When I feel better, I will definitely go and talk to you. said the old lady."

Seeing her push again, Aunt Xue felt a little unhappy; but since Xing Shi was ill, she was really in a bad mood, so she couldn't handle it right now.

On this day, Mrs. Xing was strolling in the courtyard with nothing to do, and Jia Huang's wife came to pay her respects and flattered her.

Xing smiled and asked Grandma Huang to sit with her. "I heard that your nephew is studying in school?"

Grandma Huang hurriedly laughed and said, "Thanks to the master and wife!"

"Recently, I heard that the atmosphere in this school is not right, but this?" Xing raised her eyebrows and asked.

Grandma Huang was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Oh, I really don't know about this. Why don't I go back and ask my wife about my dishonest nephew. If he dares to do anything to embarrass me, I will He must be skinned."

"That's not necessary." Mrs. Xing smiled lightly, then turned to look at Grandma Huang meaningfully and said, "However, it's a human being. Those who know the current affairs are outstanding. The family has a big family business, so there will be a lot of help in the future."

Grandma Huang understood what Xing meant, and she couldn't wait to flatter her: "I really wish I could dig me open, and show my sincere heart to my wife."

Xing smiled: "That's fine, bring your nephew to see me another day, so that I can see what he looks like."

Grandma Huang Quan regarded it as the favor of the Xing family, so she agreed happily.

In the evening, Jia Amnesty came back and said to Mrs. Xing, "Do you know what I heard outside today, that Xue Pan, he actually—"

"Duanxiu." Xing said lightly.She lowered her eyes, and threaded the brocade with the needle and thread in her hand.

Jia Amnesty looked at Xing Shi in surprise: "You knew that earlier?"

"Not at all." However, before going to Yangzhou, Aunt Xue always brought Baochai here, Xing was a little annoyed, so she checked and found out about Xue Pan by the way.

Xing immediately thought of Jia Lian again, and said to Jia She with a smile, "But I haven't heard from Brother Lian for quite a while, so I don't know what to do."

"Hehehe..." Jia Shefeng sneered with awe-inspiring eyes, but he didn't really believe that Jia Lian's temper could be changed.

"Seeing that the time limit is approaching, you have to ask people to keep an eye on him these few days. I'm afraid that he will jump over the wall in a hurry and come up with some crooked ways to make money." Xing ordered.

Jia Amnesty nodded: "I already sent someone to watch him, don't worry, I guess he doesn't have the guts to hold him back. He always runs to the pier recently. I think he probably learned from you and left Yangzhou. What about jade?"

Xing smiled: "Then he can't afford to pay. I took advantage of you to transport the jade back without spending a penny. The people who started it all were my own family members who were easy to manage and obedient. If he hired a boat to hire Human luck, not to mention waste of money, I'm afraid people will still fool him."

"Tell him to break in by himself, but ended up being lazy and whoring women. Now that you've done a good job in the jade shop, he's imitating you. It can be seen that he has some skills! He can't learn anything, and he can't study well. He's really useless!" Jia Amnesty sighed worriedly.Bai Jian's son is indeed not cheap!

"That's all he has." Xing obviously expected that, and she was already ready to throw the five thousand silver in vain.Although it hurt a little when I gave it, if I didn't teach Jia Lian a lesson thoroughly and shut his mouth shut, how could he be willing to obey in the future.Then there is the issue of the inheritance of Dafang's family business. She has no way to hand over the family business to an incompetent younger generation to inherit it.All she wanted was for Jia Lian to have nothing to say.

Jia She drank the tea in boredom, and glanced at Xing Shi once in a while.

Xing looked up at him: "What do you mean?"

Jia She's thin lips curled up slightly, and he smiled faintly: "Daughter-in-law, I think we should work hard!"

"Oh," Xing picked up the needle and thread and continued to embroider.

Jia Amnesty felt that he was neglected, so he moved a stool and sat next to Xing Shi, resting his chin in one hand, admiring Xing Shi.

"What are you doing so close to me?" Xing raised her head, the tip of her nose was only three fingers away from Jia Amnesty, she hurriedly turned her head away, and staggered away.

"I've been ignored, get closer to you, so that you can see me when you look up." Jia Amnesty teased.

Xing was amused and put down the things in his hand.He took the soup from Xiaohong and handed it to Jia Amnesty to drink.

"what is this?"

Xing twitched her eyebrows, and said in a steady voice, "Strengthening Yang Soup."

Jia Amnesty: "..."

Jia She was silent for a while, then obediently took the drink, and drank it down.Until the time of rest at night, Jia She was depressed and did not speak.

Xing burrowed into bed to rest, and Jia Amnesty followed silently.Without saying a word, he reached out to take off Xing's clothes.

"What are you doing?"

"Daughter-in-law, you are doubting my ability. After careful consideration, I have decided that I must prove to you at least twice a night in the future. There is no upper limit." Jia She said seriously.

"Pfft," Xing patted Jia She's head with her hand, and said with a smile, "One sentence of aphrodisiac soup will tell you what you're thinking about. It's just for your body, so don't think too much about it."

Jia Amnesty said sincerely, "It is my responsibility and obligation to make my wife happy."

"I'm just worried about your health, and I'll scare people by making some tonic soup." Xing pushed away Jia She, who wanted to cheat on her, and said with a smile, "Don't you think you've been doing it a little bit lately? You It's not a 20-year-old young man, and his body still needs to be taken care of on weekdays."

Jia She nodded, "Listen to you, what you said is right." After finishing speaking, Jia She crawled into bed, and still dishonestly ripped off Xing's obscene clothes.

Xing Shi covered her chest, stared and said, "It won't work recently!"

"Why?" Jia She blinked, and there were two small flames burning in his eyes.

"No reason!" Xing gave him an annoyed look, then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

It was pitch black, after a moment of silence.Hearing Xing's cry "Ah", Jia She hugged her again...

The next day, Jia She got up wanting to be dissatisfied, his eyes swept over Xing's slender body like a resentful woman.

Xing grabbed Jia Amnesty and dressed him.

"The matter of Xue's family is about to start. Just wait for two days, and I will ask them to move out."

Jia She turned serious, looked at Xing with worry, and said, "The son of Xue's family is really a jerk, he will be a troublemaker if he lives in our house sooner or later. There are also children in our house, whoever has contact with him must be restrained. Nowadays, in the capital, when someone with the surname Jia is mentioned, they just laugh at it." Jia Amnesty meant that the children of the Jia family had a bad reputation in the capital.

"It's hard to manage. There are so many branches of the Jia family, and there are not a few children. They are all bastards, and none of them are promising. You are not the patriarch, and you didn't teach them excuses. What do you say?" Xing said.

"That's true. I have to discuss this matter with the nephew of the East Mansion. However, I heard that he is not very good. I'm afraid that when the time comes, there will be a nest of snakes and rats, and they won't listen to me." Jia She said with a sneer.

Xing looked into Jia She's eyes and suggested: "It's not easy, if you can't be soft, you have to be hard." Since the reason is not clear, she simply broke it.

Jia Amnesty gave his daughter-in-law a thumbs up in admiration, this method is good, straightforward.

Jia Amnesty looked at the clothes Xing wore for himself with satisfaction, the blue brocade silk shirt was just right close to the body, looking in the mirror, it was really chic and elegant.

Jia She touched his clothes curiously, and asked with a smile, "You really did this?"

"I still have this ability." Mrs. Xing seemed to be very satisfied with the upper body effect of this dress.

After the two of them had dinner, Jia Amnesty was going to the morning court, and bid farewell to Mrs. Xing reluctantly.

Xing looked at Jia She strangely: "What's wrong with you recently, you're so clingy?"

"Why don't you say that you ignore me?" Jia Amnesty sneered.

"Is there?"

Without further ado, Jia Amnesty took La Xing's family into his arms, regardless of how many maids were there.

Xing blushed.

Jia She's lips moved to Xing's ear, and he exhaled the news: "You always said lightly last night, which made me suspicious."

"What doubts?" Xing looked at Jia She with a guilty conscience.

Jia Amnesty raised the corners of his mouth proudly: "You didn't come on time for this moonflower water, please invite a doctor to come today."

Xing looked at Jia She cautiously: "What do you know?"

Jia She raised his eyebrows: "I know best when you come every month. You didn't come on time this month, and you were still absent-minded. In addition to your performance last night, did you react?" Jia She said, smiling happily Look at Xing's stomach.

Mrs. Xing thumped Jia She's chest: "Don't look at it, it may not be sure yet. I'm old, I may not be able to conceive, and I've been busy these two days, so I didn't ask the doctor to look at it. Maybe the sunflower water was delayed for a few days. Come in a few days."

Jia Amnesty glanced at Mrs. Xing, smiled, called Xiao Hong and said, "Go, ask a doctor, please do it now, hurry up!"

"My lord, hurry up and go to court." Mrs. Xing urged him.

Jia She was silent for a while, then turned to tell the bearer: "First carry the sedan chair to the street outside the palace gate, and wait for me there."

"Master, you can't go without a sedan chair." Xing said in surprise.

"Take a sedan chair and walk slowly. It's too late. The imperial court has rules, and the quality control what kind of sedan chair to make, so as not to damage the majesty of the imperial court. I'm not afraid. After the doctor gives you a pulse, I will ride a fast horse to that street. Then change the sedan chair to the gate of the palace, but no one finds anything." Jia She changed the passage.

Xing Shi smiled and didn't say much.

Not long after, the doctor was invited to diagnose Xing's pulse.

After a while, the doctor reported great joy to Jia She: "Master She is very happy, Madam is happy pulse."

Jia Amnesty was overjoyed, he sealed the golden melon seeds and gave them to the doctor as a reward, and then happily went to see Mrs. Xing.

Xing was pregnant for the first time, and she felt a little wonderful. Apart from being happy, she was also a little nervous and worried for no reason.Even at this moment, she didn't know what kind of emotions she should show.

Jia Amnesty excitedly embraced the panicked Xing family, and gave his daughter-in-law a big thankful kiss. "Thank you!"

Seeing Jia She's funny face, Xing laughed out loud and relaxed.

After Jia Amnesty went to court, Jia's mother got the letter and rushed over to visit Xing's family.

If Dafang can add a grandson, it will be great news for Jiamu.Mother Jia told Mrs. Xing what to pay attention to in daily food and clothing, and at the same time asked people to bring many precious supplements to nourish the body and protect the fetus.

"Daughter-in-law, you are pregnant with a child at this age, it's better to worry less, what do you think about the housekeeper's business?" Mother Jia recalled her previous promise, so she could only express it tactfully.

"When I went to Yangzhou last time, the second girl took care of the family very neatly. Now it's okay to ask her to exercise. Besides, the daughter-in-law is pregnant. It's not impossible to do anything. It's convenient to order her one or two occasionally."

Jia's mother looked at Xing Shi, guessing that she would not let go of the housekeeper Quan to the second room, so she gave up.Mother Jia reluctantly nodded, held Mrs. Xing's hand and said, "Your housekeeper, you can give it to whoever you call the shots."

Since Yingchun was mentioned, Xing went on to say: "The second girl is about to reach the age of engagement, I'm thinking about finding some suitable children from aristocratic families for her, let's see each other first."

Mother Jia didn't care much about Yingchun's marriage. "You are her aunt, you can decide whatever you want."

Xing smiled and nodded.At this time, Grandma Huang brought her nephew Jin Rong to see Mrs. Xing. The two of them got the good news when they entered the mansion, and they quickly congratulated her.

Mother Jia was tired of coping, so she found an excuse and left first.

Since Grandma Huang came to the mansion, she couldn't break the etiquette. After inviting Mrs. An Xing, she went to Mrs. Wang's place to visit.Mrs. Wang was already overwhelmed by the embarrassing incident that day, and her heart became depressed.Today I saw Grandma Huang, and learned from her that Mrs. Xing was pregnant, and that Mother Jia was eager to visit.Mrs. Wang couldn't think about it, rolled her eyes, and passed out again.But Grandma Huang was frightened and called for someone.After working in Rongxi Hall for less than half an hour, it was only when they heard that Mrs. Wang had woken up that they sent someone to send Grandma Huang away.

Grandma Huang felt that she had chosen the wrong time to come to Rongfu today, so she hurried back in a hurry.He wanted to go to the Xing family to get Jin Rong back, so he took him away.Unexpectedly, just as Grandma Huang was introduced into the house by her maid, she saw her nephew Jin Rong tremblingly kneeling in the middle of the ground to apologize for her mistake.

"What's going on here?" Grandma Huang's premonition got worse.Just now, Mrs. Wang was sick on the bed, so it was not easy for her to take Jin Rong away.It just so happened that Mrs. Xing also intended to keep him here.Is it possible that Jin Rong caused trouble after such a kung fu?

There was nothing unusual about Xing's attitude, he drank tea with a smile on his face, and asked Grandma Huang to sit down.

Grandma Huang didn't dare, she hurriedly apologized to Mrs. Xing for her mistake, no matter what happened.

Xing said with a smile: "It's nothing serious, it's just that a while ago someone said that there was a 'lovely story' in the school, and it has something to do with the master in Lixiangyuan."

Grandma Huang has also seen the world, so how could she not understand the deep meaning in Xing's words.She immediately hated Jin Ronglai, and asked sharply if this matter had anything to do with him.

Jin Rong hurriedly disregarded the relationship: "It has nothing to do with me, it's not the two seductive Xiang Lianyuai in the school, who saw that Uncle Xue was rich, and hooked up with him. Not only the two of them, there are many others in the school. But Fan's appearance The delicate ones have almost all been inspected by Uncle Xue."

Xing looked at Jin Rong's appearance, pink face and red lips, also very delicate.Her eyes sank: "What about you?"

"I..." Jin Rong's eyeballs moved and he froze.

"I'll show you two ways, one, don't admit it, don't go to the school, and you and your aunt don't want to get involved in the Rong Mansion in the future. Two, stand up with that kind of sympathy and love, and testify against Uncle Xue. "Xing paused, and added, "As long as you are willing to know your mistakes, you can correct them. I ask the master to keep your skills."

Xue Pan was involved in a life lawsuit, so he should act in a low-key manner.Now he doesn't know how to repent and is still running rampant in the capital. This is not Jinling. Any bastard who dares to run rampant at the emperor's feet will eventually be able to escape death.Now the most popular crimes in the imperial court are to sit on consecutive charges, the Xing family will never tolerate such dangerous relatives as Xue Pan staying in the Rongfu.She would rather ignore those wives who stole and gambled behind her back, and get rid of this cancer from the Rong Mansion first.
