The Lady of the Big House in the Red House

thing.

"It's not difficult, just let everyone tell Zheng'er." Jia Mu took it for granted.

Xu Hui smiled slightly, and said: "The daughter-in-law has someone to clean the wing room first, and the old lady will send someone to pick them up."

There is no problem at all in receiving Shi Xiangyun, but as Xu Hui expected, Jia Zheng is now staring at Jia Baoyu's study all the time. How could he let his son relax for such a long time, so he found an excuse to reject Jia's mother. the meaning of.Perhaps it was the first time she was rejected by her second son. Mother Jia's expression was not good these days, and Shi Xiangyun yelled for Mother Jia to pick up Jia Baoyu from time to time, which annoyed her even more.

The theater troupe has already entered the mansion, and everything is ready for the banquet.Because several concubines went to Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing together and couldn't come back, only a few concubines came to the door this time.In addition to the usual good friends, the Xue family also came to the door this time at the invitation of Jia Mu.Jia Amnesty led Jia Lian to welcome the male guests, Xu Hui led Shen Shi to welcome the female relatives in the flower hall, and Jia Wan received the little girls who came to the banquet under the guidance of the two aunts.

The age difference between Jia Wan, Lin Daiyu, Jia Tanchun, Xue Baochai and the historians is not too big, so there is still a common topic to speak of.Especially when it came to acupuncture female red, several people even opened up the chatter box, exchanging with each other what kind of acupuncture techniques they have learned recently.Shi Xiangyun couldn't talk to Jia Wan and Lin Daiyu, so he took Jia Tanchun to sit aside and asked about Jia Baoyu's situation; Xue Baochai decided to join Jia Wan's topic circle after thinking for a while.

"I haven't seen my second sister for a while, but this stitch is better than before." Lin Daiyu looked at the newly embroidered golden silk sachet hanging on Jia Wan's body, "What kind of fragrance is in it, it smells so good."

"It is the plum blossom fragrance of Princess Shouyang from ancient books. My two aunts and I tried to make it. This incense was supposed to be burned in an incense burner, but I didn't like it, so I took a pill and put it in the In the sachet, it usually smells good." Jia Wan replied, "If my sister likes it, I'll send you some pills later."

"Did you know that the girl from the Lin family has one? We all need to be listeners." The eldest girl from the Shi family smiled first.

"Of course there are a few older sisters." Jia Wan smiled back.

But Xue Baochai said: "I never like to use any spices, so the second girl doesn't need to give them to me."

"My sister doesn't like to use incense, so why does she have a fragrance?" Miss Shi Er glanced at Xue Baochai and asked with her mouth pouted.

"It's just the smell of the pills I took." Xue Baochai smiled quietly and elegantly, "I have been in poor health since I was a child, and I always cough when I get sick. It is said that it is a heat poison brought out from the mother's womb. Later, there was a wandering monk. He gave me a golden lock and a prescription. The medicine was made from white peony flower, white lotus flower, white hibiscus flower, and white plum flower stamens, 12 taels each, and collected from the four solar terms of rain, white dew, frost and snow in the same year. 12 taels each of dew, cream, and snow, mixed with honey, sugar, etc. The pill itself has a fragrance, and after taking it for a long time, I have been infected with this cold fragrance."

"It sounds mysterious." Miss Shi Er muttered, then turned to Jia Wan and said, "I really like the fragrance on your body, so give me a copy of the ancient recipe later, and I'll try to make it myself when I go home."

Lin Daiyu raised her eyes and glanced at Xue Baochai, but she recalled that when she was sick, she also visited two wandering outsiders, and she didn't know if it was the same as the girl from Xue's family.Jia Wan also knew about it, but she didn't say it out loud, she just exchanged a glance with Lin Daiyu and said with a smile, "I'll definitely send it to you."

"Sisters, what are you talking about, talking so happily?" Shi Xiangyun came over after learning about Jia Baoyu's recent situation from Jia Tanchun, "Second Sister's sachet is really beautiful."

"No matter how good-looking it is, it can't compare to your craftsmanship." Jia Wan smiled lightly, "What did you ask the third sister to say?"

"It's just a question about Brother Ai's recent situation." Shi Xiangyun said carelessly, "Before the old lady wanted to take Brother Ai to live in the house, but the second master didn't allow it, and forced Brother Ai to study. What annoys him the most is This is it."

Jia Tanchun frowned slightly, with disapproval on his face.

Xue Baochai took a look at Shi Xiangyun, and said, "Isn't it a matter of course for men to study, and only in the future will they be able to pass the imperial examinations."

"Sister Xue just wants to make my brother better. How did you know that Brother Ai hates reading the most?" Shi Xiangyun took a sip of tea, "It's a pity that Brother Ai is outside, otherwise I can talk to him."

As soon as these words came out, Miss Shi and Miss Shi's faces were both ugly, and they hummed in unison.The old matriarch also wrote a letter saying that their mother treated Shi Xiangyun harshly. Look at her temperament, can she not be strictly controlled!

Jia Wan quickly changed the subject, which prevented the girls from arguing on the spot.Xue Baochai's face was also not good-looking, and in the end, he still sat on the side sullenly, considering that this was not a place for him to lose his temper.Lin Daiyu glanced at her, and finally patted the back of her hand to express comfort.

Finally seeing her precious Baoyu, Jia Mu's face finally eased a little.After seeing off the guests who came to celebrate the birthday, Jia She and Jia Zheng gathered together in Rongqing Hall. This was also Mother Jia's request, and wanted to have a good talk with their two sons.Xu Hui looked at it coldly, and it was clear that Jia's mother wanted to stay with Jia Baoyu for a while longer, so she dragged their eldest room away.

While muttering "Baoyu lost weight after studying", while observing the appearance of her second son, seeing that he had no intention of asking Jia Baoyu to stay with her for a while, Mother Jia sighed softly, and was just about to speak, Seeing everyone Lai walk in in a hurry, panic and shame were on his face.

"What's wrong?" Mother Jia frowned and asked.

"Just now I took a few girls to dinner, and I saw the Xiren next to Master Bao looked uncomfortable and had chest tightness and nausea, watching..." Everyone Lai was a little embarrassed, after all, there were several young girls present.Shen quickly got up and took a few girls out first, before she continued, "It looks like she's pregnant."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned. Jia Baoyu was still confused and didn't know what was going on, but Jia Zheng was furious and got up and slapped Jia Baoyu so hard that he almost fell off the chair. , when he looked up, a slap print was already printed on his face.

Mother Jia didn't care to protect him first, so she quickly asked everyone Lai to bring Xiren up, and asked for a doctor.After the doctor's pulse diagnosis, Xiren was confirmed to be nearly two months pregnant.After asking someone to seal the doctor's generous money, Mother Jia looked coldly at Xi Ren who was kneeling on the ground, and said angrily: "I thought you were a prudent person, so I called you to Baoyu's side. I didn't expect you to not Knowing the shame, you actually did something to seduce the master!"

Xiren covered his blushing face from Jiamu's slap, and dared not speak.She has been having an affair with Jia Baoyu for almost two years, and she has kept it a secret. During this time, she herself felt that something was wrong with her body, but she dared not say anything. Unexpectedly, it was revealed on the old lady's birthday .She just wept softly and looked at Jia Baoyu out of the corner of her eyes, hoping that he would plead for mercy.

"Old lady..." Just as Jia Baoyu was about to speak out, he was frightened back by Jia Mu's sinister eyes, and he didn't dare to open his mouth again.

Xu Hui took a sip of tea, sat on the side without expressing any opinions, but saw Jia She stroking his beard, with a sarcastic smile on his lips, and said: "How old is Baoyu, and this girl has already acted to seduce the master?" Now she is pregnant with a child. If she gives birth to a son, will Baoyu still marry a wife? I don’t believe any girl is willing to have a concubine running around before she even enters her husband’s house.”

Mother Jia glanced at him, but did not reprimand him.Jia Amnesty's words are right, even if she puts a girl next to Baoyu, she will have to drink Bizi soup after serving her, and now that Xiren is pregnant, Mother Jia has to think of a way to keep Jia Baoyu's reputation from spreading. It makes people think that he is a womanizing dude.She took a deep breath, and said: "The attacker will be locked up in a village under my name first, and everything will be discussed after giving birth! Also, I think the musk moon next to Baoyu is very good, and I will be a good one for Baoyu." Let's go through the room. Zheng'er, Baoyu is your child after all, so you can be angry. It's okay, I'm tired, let's all go back!"

Such an incident happened on the day of her birthday, and it was already good for Jia Mu to pass out without being angry, and now she feels so angry that her liver hurts.Xu Hui followed Jia Amnesty back to Rongxi Hall; Jia Zheng gave Jia Baoyu another slap in the face before he was taken away.Jia Huan smiled coldly, thinking about how to tell his aunt about this wonderful scene tonight after returning home.

No.80 Bi Jia Wan Candidates for the Second Round

Xiren was forced to go to Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing by everyone Lai.That Zhuangzi was Jia Mu's dowry. Although Jia Mu divided her belongings into two and gave them to the two families, she still held the land deeds of the two Zhuangzi. She kept it for herself and planned to give it to Jia Baoyu in the future. .Xu Hui didn't care about these two Zhuangzi, and this time she didn't bother to deal with Xiren and Jia Baoyu's troubles. Jia Wan will enter the palace in March next year to participate in the primary election. Now she is busy letting the craftsmen in the jewelry workshop make jewelry , but also to go to the embroidery workshop to pull cloth to make new clothes for Jia Wan.

"Isn't there still a lot of fabric at home? Why does my mother have to go out and buy new fabrics for me to make clothes?" Jia Wan sat beside Xu Hui holding a handkerchief, watching her order a lot of water blue and light pink. Such fabrics, and then sent the people from the embroidery workshop out of the house after giving a deposit, and asked.

"The materials you have at home are all the best, and many of them are imported. But you think, the show girls participating this time must not
