The Zhen Family Brothers in the Red Chamber

When Mrs. Li heard that Zhen Zhu had come, she was surprised for a while, and then felt that she was too unfamiliar with the elder son, so she turned her head and said, "Order someone to see if the young lady is awake. Cleaned up a lot.”

After she finished speaking, the servant girl who was waiting on the side responded and walked away. Mrs. Li turned her head to her nanny and said in surprise: "My son, although he crawled out of my stomach, has been raised by the old lady since he was a child." Under the knee, I am the most disturbed, why are you here today?"

Li's nanny smiled. She was wearing a dark jacket, with a silver hairpin on her hair, her eyebrows were slightly curved, and her features were round. When she smiled, there was always a dimple on her left cheek. Comes with a three-point favor.

"The young master was not in the mansion before, so naturally he had no contact with the wife, but filial piety is no match for the young master. Madam, have you forgotten that when you were in Jiangning, the young master came to your yard early one day? If you heard that you I haven't gotten up yet, and I'm still obediently sitting in the guest room without making any noise."

When she said this, Mrs. Li seemed to remember it, and nodded with a smile: "Very well, it's because I've been in such a hurry recently that I forgot."

So waiting for Zhen Zhu to enter the door, he saw that Li Shi was extremely enthusiastic. He was shocked, but he still greeted Li Shi with fists. Li didn't know how Zhen Zhu lived in Yongwang Mansion before, but At first, she was afraid of breaking a taboo, so she only found a few topics to talk about. Although she herself had studied, she was not good at it, and she couldn't talk about account management to men. A bright yellow Ru skirt entered the door.

"It's over, come and meet your big brother." Mrs. Li hastily called out, the young lady had two balls tied on her head, a velvet belt, and two small bell-shaped earrings on her ears. Accessories made of gold thread are also hung on the wrists around the neck.

The young lady was not shy of strangers, she just snuggled into her mother's arms along Li Shi's hand, and then said crisply: "This is the big brother that mother often talks about, right?"

"That's right, this is your real brother." Li patted the young lady's head with a gentle expression on his face, Zhen Zhu's index finger that was resting on her knee twitched, but the expression on her face remained unchanged.

The young lady tilted her head and acted coquettishly with Li Shi: "I usually play with my second and third brothers. I don't know this elder brother."

When Mrs. Li heard this, she immediately covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and smiled: "Oh, there are people my daughter doesn't know." When she smiled, the maids and nurses who were serving on the side all smiled in sympathy. When she got up, the corners of Zhen Zhu's mouth twitched and she lowered her head with a dazed expression, but when she waited to raise her head again, a smile appeared.

"It's all the elder brother's fault. He wasn't in the mansion before, and I'm waiting for the elder brother to buy something for the second sister in the future, which can be regarded as an apology." Zhen Zhu said while trying to untie her waistband.

"Okay, I don't need you, a little man, to pay for it. I'll go to my box and pick out two hairpins with fresher designs for the young lady. That's the way to go. Call big brother." Li squeezed The young lady's cheek, and then pushed the young lady's back.

The young lady turned her back to Li Shi, rolled her eyes at Zhen Zhu, then called "Big Brother", then turned around and acted like a baby to Li Shi.

Seeing that Mrs. Li was getting close to the young lady, Zhen Zhu felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but she couldn't tell exactly what it was like, she just felt that they were a family and she was an outsider, so she stood up, cupped her hands, and then said goodbye Well, what I was going to say before, I didn't say anything, waiting for him to step out of Li's courtyard, my face was a little confused.

He is unhappy, you can see it from his face, so as soon as he came out, Song Chaoyong kept silent after following him, Zhenzhu walked around the yard casually, Song Zhaoyong just followed behind, master and servant walked away Walking to the door, Song Zhaoyong took a look, then looked at his grandfather waving to him, he glanced at Song Guanshi and then looked back at Zhen Zhu, and waved to Song Guanshi.

Guanshi Song seemed to be in a hurry, so he stood anxiously by the arch and kept poking his head. Zhen Zhu took a look and said to Song Zhaoyong, "Go and see if there is something urgent."

Song Zhaoyong groaned, then looked at Zhen Zhu anxiously and said, "Then, young master, I'll leave for a while."

"Go." Zhen Zhu waved his hand, he and Song Chaoyong had a deep affection, the two were in the capital together, although later one was in the palace and the other was outside the palace, but Song Zhaoyong took care of Zhen Zhu's basic necessities of life, He watched Song Zhaoyong run to the door, and then watched Guanshi Song say this quickly, because he couldn't hear the sound, he could only watch Guanshi Song gesticulating while talking, Song Zhaoyong's face was embarrassed, and then frowned Frowning and refusing something, Guanshi Song seemed unable to convince Song Zhaoyong, so he sighed helplessly.

It was only then that Zhen Zhu realized that there seemed to be another side to the valet who she thought was rather dumbfounded.

He watched Song Zhaoyong push Guanshi Song away, and before turning around, he seemed to wipe his eyes with his arm, Zhen Zhu's eyelids twitched, there must be something wrong.

Song Zhaoyong was expecting Ai Ai to come to Zhen Zhu's side, he seemed to reject his grandfather quite simply, but he didn't intend to hide it from Zhen Zhu, so Zhen Zhu followed his mind and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Something happened at home. My mother seems to have seen something. Grandpa wants me to go home and ask." Steward Song was originally a loyal person. I'm afraid this time the matter will be a big deal, otherwise he wouldn't ask for it. When Zhen Zhu came here, Zhen Zhu thought that she was feeling uncomfortable for a while, so she might as well share her thoughts, so she asked Song Zhaoyong to explain exactly why.

The affairs of Song Zhaoyong's family are actually not troublesome at all. What I want to say is that Song Zhaoyong's mother has something to do. Manager Song actually has no prejudice against this second daughter-in-law, and he can't resist the self-doubt of these young and second families.

Since Song Zhaoyong came to serve Zhenzhu, the treatment of Song Guanshi's family has naturally improved a lot. As the saying goes, it is good to enjoy the shade under a big tree. Song Zhaoyong's family is the one with the most free time in Song Guanshi's family.

Afterwards, when the Zhen family moved from Jiangning to the capital, as long as they did not have children, they resigned. Nanny Song served the old lady, so there was no difference, but the second child's family was a little unhappy. It's okay to be with a master who may be disaster-stricken, but they can't tolerate their unwillingness. When they arrive in the capital, the money that was originally rich in Jiangning is completely worthless. Let alone buying a house, renting a yard is enough.

I have complained a lot about this, but if I complain about my son again, I’m still at Zhen’s house. Where can they go? That is, a few days ago, Guanshi Song’s second son suddenly came to Guanshi Song, saying that something happened, and asked him what’s wrong , He hesitated and couldn't explain clearly, so Guanshi Song talked to Nanny Song, and Nanny Song went back.

"My mother is unclear. Before that, my father had been working outside. My mother originally stayed at home to do some farm work with my aunt and the others. A few days ago, I met someone with a tooth. I heard that There are quite a lot of contacts in the capital, and my mother went to the east of the city a few times with her. I didn't want to tell the young master, but my grandfather was right, and what happened to my mother this time seems to have something to do with the young master. , so I asked the young master to meet my aunt and ask directly, so as not to make any mistakes along the way." Song Zhaoyong only felt that this time was too coincidental, and then he said to Zhen Zhu embarrassedly, " Wait for a while to see my mother, don't listen to what she says."

Song Zhaoyong had previously rejected Manager Song because he asked him to ask for leave to go back first. The reason why he refused was because he was afraid that he would be persuaded by his mother, after all, he was his biological mother.

If it is based on what Song Zhaoyong just said, the matter seems to have nothing to do with the Song family, but Zhen Zhu seemed to be very emotional when she saw Song Zhaoyong before, and it was obviously more than this. After thinking about it, Zhen Zhu frowned and didn't speak again , Anyway, I will know in a while, don't worry about it in a while.

Waiting for Zhen Zhu and Song Zhaoyong to drive to the small courtyard of the Song family, the door opened, and there was a howling like a slaughtered pig inside, the voice was sharp, it seemed to be a woman's voice, crying and begging there more than once, specifically what to say, Zhen Zhu didn't hear clearly either, because the local accent was too strong and she spoke too anxiously.

When Song Zhaoyong took Zhen Zhu halfway inside, he saw a disheveled village woman running out. First she ran around, and then she seemed to see Song Zhaoyong, so she ran towards Song Zhaoyong, shouting as she ran. He said Ayong's name: "Ayong, my son, come and save me, save me, their Song family is heartless, I'm only thinking about you two, they actually want to send me to see the official, ah Be brave, hurry up, save mother, save mother."
