Queen's Road in the Red House
Chapter 20
Zhou Rui's family saw that Madam Wang was unhappy, and just wanted to try to persuade her, when suddenly a second-class maid came running outside, smiling all over her face: "Madam is very happy! The master said to ask the wife to go to the old lady immediately."
It was the matter of Jia Baoyu's promotion and companionship, and the imperial decree finally arrived in the Rongguo Mansion.
The Jia family rejoiced from top to bottom.
Mrs. Wang's depression was swept away, and she suddenly felt that the sky was blue and the water was green, and she immediately came to Jiamu's room.
Mrs. Jia Shexing and Jia Zheng have both arrived.
Mrs. Xing had already torn off her handkerchief for a while, and when she saw Mrs. Wang, she couldn't help but said, "The younger siblings are now the prince's biological mothers, and both sons and daughters are worthy of entering the palace. Coming late?"
Mrs. Wang was in a good mood at the moment, she ignored Mrs. Xing's harsh words, and flattered Jia's mother: "Baoyu has always been raised by the old lady, and now such a great future is also taught by the old lady."
The house was full of beautiful flowers and bustling.
However, the real master Jia Baoyu is not here now.
He really hates reading, just now when he heard the news, it was like a thunderbolt hit his head from a sunny day, and he was about to make a fuss on the spot.
Jia Min didn't bother to pay attention to him, and directly asked Sister Feng and Yuanyang to drag him out, explaining clearly that this is not a family lesson, so he can't fall in love with him!
Jia Zheng couldn't help but smile on his always serious face.
After Mrs. Wang sat down, she continued: "It's just a fly in the ointment. It's the fifth highness's accompanying reading, if it's the fourth highness's..."
Jia Min interrupted: "They are all descendants of dragons and phoenixes, so the courtiers are not allowed to talk too much! Besides, if it weren't for the Fifth Highness, there would be no such grace."
With the current status of the Jia family, Jia Baoyu, the second son of the second wife, was born as the unfavored fifth prince, and the other princes could not match him.
Mrs. Wang also understood in her heart, let alone studying in Wende Palace together, seeing all the princes, it is already a ladder to heaven.
For a moment, Hu Po said outside: "Aunt Xue and Miss Xue are here."
Jia Min's eyes were fixed.
In fact, Aunt Xue and her daughter have wanted to visit since Mother Jia was injured.It's just that Jia's mother kicked out her family, so she didn't come for the time being.
After this delay, I heard the news that Jia Mu was in a bad mood after being ill, and even lost the housekeeping rights of the two wives.
As Mrs. Wang's direct sister, Aunt Xue felt that it would be better not to come here to make troubles.So he excused himself to be ill, left Baochai to serve him, and hid in Lixiangyuan for a few days.
It was not until today when I heard the good news about Jia Baoyu that I came to the mansion to congratulate him.
Thinking that Jia Mu loved Baoyu so much, and there was such a happy event, no matter what anger she had, it should disappear.
Jia Min looked at the mother and daughter who walked in.
Aunt Xue looked about forty, fair and kind.Xue Baochai's face is like a silver basin, her eyes are like apricots, her lips are unpainted but red, and her eyebrows are unpainted but emerald.
Even though Jia Min has always been proud of her daughter's good birth, she has to admit that Xue Baochai is also a rare beauty.
Jia Min doesn't like their mother and daughter.
Xue's mother and daughter may not be the real villains, but they are real businessmen.
During the years when Mother Jia loved Daiyu, the mother and daughter of the Xue family were also very kind to Daiyu. mother.
However, after several years of getting along and being in love with each other, after Daiyu was abandoned by everyone, Xue's mother and daughter didn't care about it at all. They were only busy putting on the wedding dress for Baochai and marrying Baoyu.
The Xue family and the Lin family had nothing to do with each other. In Jia Min's view, if Aunt Xue had never recognized Daiyu as her daughter, she would have been unfamiliar with her.She would not be angry with the Xue family.
But Aunt Xue was so affectionate at that time, she only said that she would take Daiyu as her own daughter, and she would take care of her from then on, but in the end she was abandoned like a shoe.
It's really a family of merchants who value profit over parting. Love is nothing, and profit is the most important thing.
Jia Min couldn't bear this tone.
She also knew that after the Xue family lost hope of sending Baochai to the palace, they only looked at the position of Second Grandma Bao.Even though Jia Min is unwilling to let Daiyu marry into Jia's family now, she is not ready to fulfill Xue's intention.
Prepare to make their plan come to nothing.
Aunt Xue's mother and daughter naturally didn't know that the old lady above had changed the core, and they invited Ann to talk as usual, and they were very happy.
Mrs. Wang then said to Baochai: "You have been serving your mother these days when she is sick, and you are tired. She looks haggard. You are such a good and filial child."
Baochai was busy and modest.
Mrs. Wang took her hand: "I know you are the most prudent and sensible person, and now your brother Bao is going to enter the palace, and you have to tell him a few words, he can listen."
This is the advantage of deliberately talking about Baochai in front of Jiamu Jiazheng.
Sure enough, Jia Zheng listened, and looking at Baochai's dignified and gentle, thinking of Mrs. Wang's usual words, he was even more satisfied with this candidate for his future daughter-in-law.
Jia Min put down the gaiwan in his hand, and said calmly: "Baoyu will enter the palace in the future, and there are countless things, see you sister and brother later."
Then he looked at Baochai again: "Bao girl is two years older than Baoyu, she is more stable than the three girls in our family."
Aunt Xue's mother and daughter were all shocked.
The old lady specifically pointed out Baochai's age, presumably because she was reluctant to make a marriage.Especially now that Baoyu is going to enter the palace again, if there is a great future and great fortune in the future, wouldn't it be that his family has no advantage.
Jia Min ignored them, this identity is very useful, anyway, she is detached regardless of her seniority and status, and she doesn't need to care about what others think.
She turned to Jia Zheng: "Baoyu was weak in the past, and I kept him by my side for these years. Now he has a future, and he can no longer live in the inner house. Let people listen, I'm afraid it will be bad for him.
When you go back, you can tidy up a good house for him from the front yard, and when he returns to the mansion in ten days, he will live in the front. "
Mrs. Wang was surprised, but Jia Zheng was overjoyed.
He only had Jia Baoyu as his legitimate son, how could he be allowed to hang out in the inner house every day, he had long wanted to discipline him strictly, but the old lady spoiled him.
Now that Jia's mother has let go, Jia Zheng has listed countless rules and regulations in his mind in an instant, and is ready to organize Jia Baoyu into a talent.
Although Mrs. Wang also knew that what Jia Mu said was reasonable, she was still worried: she still expected Jia Baoyu to act like a spoiled child in front of Jia Mu, and wanted her housekeeper back.
Now it seems that it is too late.
This couple has their own minds.
Mrs. Xing, on the other hand, couldn't grasp the important point as always, and said: "Old lady, Baoyu moved out, and Miss Lin has not come back yet. Isn't the old lady lonely in the room? Yingchun is older, with a gentle temper, and she can just accompany her. Let the old lady relieve her boredom."
This is to bring people from the big house into the Rongqing Hall to fight for face.
Jia Min just wanted to live with her daughter behind closed doors, she was not willing to take over anything else, she just waved her hand and said: "No need, it's fine for the three of them to follow Zhu'er's wife, moving away alone is not the way for sisters to get along. "
Mrs. Xing returned home in defeat again.
It was meaningless for everyone to sit any longer, and they all got up to say goodbye.
----
Jia Baoyu lay on the bed and wept loudly.
He hated studying and rules to death, but now he is going to study in the place with the most rules in the world!
Where is the palace?It is said that the princes would get up at Yinshi to study hard, cold and hot all the time, that is really a purgatory on earth.
Besides, he grew up holding pearls since he was a child. With Jia Mu protecting him, who in the family would dare to provoke him?The only Jia Zheng, as long as he hides quickly, he will not be able to catch him.
But now when he went to the palace, his eyes were full of princes and nobles.
Jia Baoyu knew very well in his heart that he suddenly became the bottom of the society: it is said that the prince made a mistake and was beaten by his companion.
Therefore, Jia's family rejoiced and rejoiced, but he cried bitterly with true feelings.
Xiren was very anxious, so he could only caress his back: "Second Master, don't cry soon. Both the master and wife like it that way, if you let the master know about you like this, he will be angry again."
Jia Baoyu's crying stopped.
Xiren continued to work hard: "Even girls like us know that this is the best thing. The second master studied with the princes, and he must be the best teacher. In the future, whether the second master takes the imperial examination or becomes an official, It’s all cheaper than ever.”
Her sentence contained Jia Baoyu's two most hated things: the imperial examination and becoming an official.
So the cry that had been softer just now suddenly became sad and heroic again.
Qingwen Sheyue and the others had already started to pack up his things for him. At this moment, Sheyue smiled and said, "My sister asked Erye to cry for a while, anyway, it's a good thing."
Everyone in the house felt honored that the second master was so promising.
Everyone was in a hurry, and after tidying up for a while, they suddenly saw Yuanyang coming in person.Xiren hurriedly went up to meet him: "Does the old lady have any orders? Why did you ask you to come here in person?"
Yuanyang sized Xiren up.
After traveling through the past ten years, she is very familiar with the maids in Rongguo Mansion.
Xiren, as long as there is no interest entanglement, is actually easy to get along with, because Xiren has always been known for his kindness and gentleness in front of outsiders.
When reading a book, Yuanyang may feel that she is hypocritical, but if it really falls on her, everyone will like Xiren who speaks kindly to herself, not Qingwen whose eyes are above her head.
So all these years, even though Yuanyang was on guard against her, he didn't hate her.
It's a pity that after today...
Yuanyang coughed, and said solemnly: "Second Master Bao, the old lady has something to say."
Seeing her seriousness, Baoyu sat up with tears all over her face, and the maids in the room even listened with their hands down.
"The old lady ordered that the second master will only return to the mansion ten days later, and he will live in the front yard, so he will add four servants."
Xiren's heart sank suddenly, and he had an ominous premonition.
Sure enough, Yuanyang continued: "As for the maids in the house, I only ask the second master to keep one who is the most lovable to serve, and the rest will be scattered."
The room was dead silent.
Jia Baoyu felt as if struck by lightning, until the mandarin duck was gone, then an unprecedented cry broke out.
It was the matter of Jia Baoyu's promotion and companionship, and the imperial decree finally arrived in the Rongguo Mansion.
The Jia family rejoiced from top to bottom.
Mrs. Wang's depression was swept away, and she suddenly felt that the sky was blue and the water was green, and she immediately came to Jiamu's room.
