Queen's Road in the Red House

After the meeting in Daiyu's room, Zhou Xuanwei came to look for mandarin ducks immediately.

It happened that there were only mandarin ducks in the room standing in front of Jia Min, chatting while sewing.Zhou Huangwei saw that there was no idler, so she told all about Daiyu's dispatch just now.

Jia Min felt relieved that the child had really grown up.

The eyes are full of smiles: "At first, I was still worried about her. As soon as I enter the palace in two months, I will see the two concubines sooner or later. What if I am reckless and suffer the punishment. Now that she thinks clearly about everything, I can rest assured gone."

Even the little maids in Daiyu's room were carefully selected by Jia Min, and they were all clean and reliable.But Jia Min felt gratified that Daiyu could have such thoughts.

--

Amber sat in the shadow of the porch, fanning her fan lightly.

Although the old lady originally valued mandarin ducks, she was different from them.But since the old lady woke up from an injury three months ago, she has almost only eyes for mandarin ducks.

She just sighed twice for herself, when she suddenly saw Ping'er coming from the door.

"Eh? You don't accompany your master to tidy up your belongings now, why are you here now? Second Grandma Lian is willing to let you out?" The maids in Rongguo Mansion are familiar with each other, and it is common for them to joke around.

Ping'er's eyebrows were a little worried: "The old lady didn't rest, did she? Our second grandma suddenly felt a little unwell, and I wanted to ask Ms. Zhou from Ms. Lin's room to take a look."

Amber subconsciously said: "Please consult the imperial physician if you feel uncomfortable..." Then she shut up again.

Tomorrow is the day of exchanging between the two. At this time, if Wang Xifeng really invites the imperial physician, he will naturally take medicine to recuperate from his illness. Then this matter will be uncertain and will be delayed.In the eyes of the elders and the eldest wives, it is natural to dislike the ill timing of this daughter-in-law.

Amber got up quickly: "Miss Zhou is talking with the old lady inside, I'll pass it on for you."

Jia Min pondered for a while after hearing Ping'er's words, and finally nodded: "Just tell Yu'er and go take a look."

Zhou Huangwei brought the anxious Ping'er back to Daiyu.

Mammy Ge immediately took out two plates of snacks from the house and put them in a food box: "Let's say that the maid on the girl's side has stewed a medicinal meal that clears heat and cools the fire. I heard that the second grandma said that she was on fire yesterday, so I invited the second grandma to eat it." Try it."

Zhou Huangwei looked at the two plain dim sum dishes from Rongguo Mansion, and nodded slightly with a corner of her mouth.

Ping'er is Wang Xifeng's confidant maid, and it is not uncommon for her to go to Rongqingtang three times a day for housework.But it's unusual for Zhou Huangwei to go to Sister Feng's son's room now.

There has to be an excuse.

Sister Feng's face was pale and she leaned on the soft cushion outside, but she seemed to be in good spirits, and even faintly looked forward to it.

After seeing Zhou Huangwei, she was only polite, and then quickly stretched out her wrist and said, "I felt sore in the morning, and I felt sick when I saw two plates of oily bacon on the dinner table. Just now, I suddenly felt dizzy and vomited once."

Zhou Xuanwei knew it well, Sister Feng felt that she was pregnant.

But in the book, Wang Xifeng seems to have only sister Qiao as a child.So Zhou Huangwei was not as optimistic as Wang Xifeng.

She was just about to take her pulse when she suddenly saw the curtain in the inner room shake slightly, revealing a pair of men's boots from the ground.Presumably Jia Lian was also at home, and the husband and wife watched the servants pack up the moving outfit together, but Sister Feng suddenly felt so unwell.

Although Jia Lian wanted to avoid an unmarried girl like Zhou Huangwei, Wang Xifeng might have the son he had been looking forward to for many years in his belly, so he couldn't help but leaned to the door and listened.

Zhou Xuanwei felt a little stressed, and put two fingers on Wang Xifeng's wrist.

With this match, she couldn't help but show her astonishment.

In fact, Wang Xifeng's pulse is a pregnant slippery pulse.The slippery pulse can also appear on a strong and healthy man, but if it appears on a delicate woman like Wang Xifeng, it must be that the Ximai has not escaped.

Sister Feng looked at Zhou Xuanwei without blinking her eyes.

She smiled and said, "Congratulations to Second Mistress Lian."

Hearing the word congratulations, even someone as strong as Wang Xifeng couldn't help but get wet.

Zhou Huangwei hurriedly said: "Second Grandma's pulse is obviously a happy pulse. Although it is less than three months old, the fetus is stable and strong. It's just better to ask the imperial physician to take a look."

Wang Xifeng took her hand, thanked her a few times and said: "Please also ask Miss Zhou to keep it a secret for me, don't tell anyone except the old lady, so as not to cause trouble."

Zhou Huangwei nodded, and was released by Sister Feng after receiving a huge purse.

Jia Lian stayed inside for only a moment, but felt very uncomfortable.As soon as Zhou Huangwei left, she lifted the bamboo curtain hung by Xia Ri, walked out quickly, looked at Wang Xifeng and smiled.

The husband and wife did not speak, just smiled face to face for a moment.

It was Wang Xifeng who came to his senses first: "We have to keep this matter a secret. If my good aunt finds out, she will definitely say something about how difficult it is to move during pregnancy."

After finishing speaking, she couldn't help frowning: "It's a pity that this child didn't come at the right time. Once I become pregnant, I will definitely hand over part of the housekeeper's affairs, but Yuan Chun just came back..."

The child should have come earlier, let her make arrangements earlier.

Jia Lian couldn't help staring: "And you are such a mother, you actually despise your own children! You can't say that, what if you run away in a childish manner."

Wang Xifeng's eyes were even bigger than his staring: "What are you talking about, those who fall into my stomach are my children, and they must not leave!"

The couple stared at each other for a moment and then laughed at the same time.

--

After hearing Zhou Huangwei's news, Jia Min nodded and said, "Are you pregnant? It's a good thing."

Yuanyang and Wang Xifeng's brain circuits are seamlessly connected: "Then the second grandma can't be tired? There must be someone to take care of it."

Jia Min smiled: "Don't worry, there will always be a suitable candidate."

The next day, the two houses of Rongguo Mansion were exchanged, and there was a lot of confusion.

Xiao Luo used the excuse of walking the dog to go out eight times a day with the people in the old lady's room.Before dinner, Peony was so tired that she couldn't take a step, she lay down in front of Daiyu, biting a corner of her skirt and refused to let go.

That was a resolute refusal to go out with Xiao Luo again.

Mo Ran pushed Xiao Luo out: "Okay, don't really tire out Peony. It is a reward from the palace, and gold is precious."

Xiaoluo just sat on the porch and waited for someone, until she saw Zhuzhu walking out with a food box, she hurriedly got up to follow: "Sister Zhuzhu, where are you going?"

Through the window, Mo Ran was amazed: "Why is Xiaoluo so powerful?"

Peony lied on the ground weakly and gave two "woo woo" sounds.

From top to bottom in the old lady's house, she was very kind to everyone in Miss Lin's room, especially the maid she brought back from the Lin family, since she was not from her own house, she was naturally more polite.

Seeing that Xiao Luo was following her, her childish face was not gone, she was very cute, she smiled and said: "The old lady ordered me to deliver two dishes to Second Grandma, will you go with me to pay Second Grandma well?"

The two walked away while chatting.

When Xiaoluo comes back, she will tell everyone what she saw and heard today.

"At first, the second wife wanted to pack all the decorations of Rongxi Hall and prepare to take them away. She said she was used to it. The eldest wife insisted against it, so she stood at the door with the store list at home and stared at it. In the end, only the second wife The wife took away the things in her dowry, and the rest of the decorations were kept."

"I heard from the maids who came to the big kitchen in the front yard at noon to say that the elder master and the second master almost had a quarrel in the study. Didn't the second master buy some famous calligraphy and paintings to hang in the study? Now he will naturally take them away, sir. The master said that it was all bought with the money from the public, so he naturally wanted to keep it. Then the second master said, isn’t the big brother’s fan also all from the public? Could it be left to me. The old man said you were dreaming.”

Everyone in the room couldn't help laughing.

Xiaoluo continued: "I heard from Sister Yuanyang that if it turned out, the two masters probably wouldn't have quarreled. But since the old lady took care of the house three months ago, she has given the two masters 200 taels of leeway for spending a month. Others They are not allowed to take public accounts, so the two masters naturally have to care about it now."

200 taels is nothing to them.

Not even a girl can buy a fan.

Xiaoluo continued: "There is still the house of the second master Bao, so naturally we have to move to the Dongkua courtyard. The second wife said that if she changed the place suddenly, she was afraid that there would be too few attackers left, so she would take Bihen again." Go back and serve Second Master Bao."

Daiyu was startled.

Nanny Ge also frowned: "What kind of rules are these! The girl in Master Bao's room is still young, so he goes out to study and distributes it to the girls. But now that he has served the girls, how can he go back to the men again? No I heard that the gentlemen want to keep the girls of their younger sisters around! Such a big mansion, can't you pick out good girls for the young masters?"

Daiyu couldn't help sighing: "Mommy, Bihen is the maid who was given to the third sister before."

Mother Ge understood: Mrs. Wang is using Tanchun to vent her anger.

Otherwise, there are a lot of maids in my house, just give Baoyu any one, and I have to take away a maid from Tanchun, saying that the old man's service is considerate, so that Tanchun knows how to be considerate of his brother, first transfer Bihen, and then give it to him. Fill.

But when it will be after that, it is impossible to say.

Now, the girls in the family are all two first-class maids, and Yuan Chun, like Daiyu, has four first-class maids.There is only Tanchun, going around, and there is still only one servant serving, which is inferior to the sisters.A strong person like Tanchun must be very sad to lose this face.

This is a little reward for Mrs. Wang's free hand to give Aunt Zhao something to do that day.

Mammy Ge didn't care, in her eyes, it was Erfang's own business.

Although Daiyu was a little worried about Tanchun, she also understood more clearly the current situation between the two houses. She must not go out, otherwise she would definitely be used, so she could only sigh inwardly.

Let's wait for a while and see if I can ask my grandmother to give Tanchun another maid.

At this time, no one took Bihen's return to Baoyu's side seriously.

Until four days later, Jia Baoyu returned from the palace again.

Before he could be happy to see Bihen, he was caught by Jia Zheng and forced to ask him about the good things he did in the homeschool by recruiting cats and dogs.

Jia Baoyu cried for his father and mother when he was whipped by the bamboo stick.

I am extremely wronged: It has been a year, and there is still a way to make up for this matter after the fact?

Now Jia Zheng doesn't use a stick for Jia Baoyu, but uses this kind of thin bamboo strips that hurt people but won't pull out any faults.

In case he can't go to the palace to study with him.

Dongkua courtyard is small and small, and things spread quickly.Mrs. Wang and Yuan Chun couldn't stand listening, so they naturally came in to protect her.

Jia Zheng still restrained himself in front of his daughter.

After all, Yuan Chun will get married soon, and according to Mrs. Wang's wishes, she must ask the Wang family to help find a good family for Yuan Chun. She must not be wronged.The implication is that even if it is to fill in a house, it must be the family of a prince and a wealthy family.

It's just that he couldn't get out of his breath, Jia Zheng was always depressed.

Seeing Baoyu's room suddenly changed from one to two pretty maids, he immediately said to Mrs. Wang: "Didn't the old lady say that? Baoyu can only leave one maid to serve! You must not spoil him anymore! These two maids , leave one, and release the other directly out of the mansion."

Jia Zheng didn't know these maids in Baoyu's room, but it didn't prevent him from knowing Baoyu's death spot, and he was going to send one out immediately.

Sure enough, Baoyu's eyes were filled with tears immediately.

However, in the eyes of Mrs. Wang and Yuan Chun, a girl is nothing, as long as the master doesn't hit Baoyu, she is better than anything else.Especially Yuan Chun, who loved Baoyu sincerely, and couldn't bear to move a finger.

What's more, now that the big house and the second house are in such a mess, the only natal brother Yuanchun can rely on in the future is Baoyu, and Baoyu is also up to the task, and can enter the palace as a companion, so Yuanchun naturally has greater expectations of him.

Seeing that his father just wanted to send a maid, he naturally had no objection.

Baoyu has a lot of opinions, but he dare not say it.

Bihen's face was pale.

She was very happy when she knew that she could come back to serve Baoyu.

What is food and clothing in Baoyu House, and what is it like in Tanchun?What's more, there is a waiter on top of her, which makes her more and more invisible.

Besides, the maid who follows the girl will either marry with the girl, or she will be released to be a servant before the girl gets married.

Bihen knew in her heart that Tanchun was a concubine, and she couldn't marry a good family, so she didn't want to follow her.But if they are released, they can be paired with a servant at will, and the children will still be slaves at that time, and she is not willing.

Instead, he followed Jia Baoyu, and now she is the only one following Xiren, so naturally he can become an aunt in the future.

Unexpectedly, within a few days of her joy, Jia Zheng actually wanted to send one of them out of the house!

Leaving the house at this age, without the monthly money to subsidize the family, it is estimated that her parents will immediately marry her to anyone.

No, she cannot be thrown out.

Bihen's eyes stared straight at Xiren.

During these times when Xiren followed Baoyu alone, he had already laid a solid foundation and voted in front of Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang also liked her calm and persuasive temperament, and she looked at the beautiful Bihen, of course she didn't like it, so she didn't hesitate, and said casually: "Baoyu, don't make your father angry. You leave the attacker here to serve you." That's it, this servant girl, reward her with a few taels of silver and tell her to go out."

Although Baoyu was also reluctant to part with Bihen, he did not dare to disobey his father, and Xicai was his favorite girl, so he nodded listlessly.

Yuan Chun is here to help Mrs. Wang go out.

"Ma'am, this servant has something to say!"

Bihen's voice was firm and even tinged with sternness. Even Mrs. Wang was taken aback. She couldn't help but turned her head and frowned and said, "What are you doing like this? The master wants to send you, so go quickly."

Bihen kowtowed and said: "This matter is related to the second master Bao. Even if the servants go, they must explain it to the wife, otherwise they will be a fool if they die, and they will harm the second master."

After all, Yuanchun knew a lot in the palace, so he said softly: "Mother, it's okay to listen to her. Now that the house is in such a state of chaos, it's impossible to say that someone is watching Baoyu and trying to kill him. Isn't this girl staying with the third sister?" After a period of time, I don’t know what I found.”

She thought that Aunt Zhao might have a black heart to harm others.

Mrs. Wang and her daughter had a tacit understanding, and nodded: "In that case, come with me."

Only Xi Ren's face suddenly lost all color.

She couldn't help but say: "Bihen, you, you..."

The malice in Bihen's eyes made her feel chilly, she couldn't speak anymore, she just felt shivering.

After all, this is the front yard, Mrs. Wang and Yuan Chun took Bihen back, looking at the narrow and inconvenient Dongkua courtyard all the way, and thinking about the grandeur of Rongxi hall, they couldn't help but feel suffocated.

Bihen followed behind the two, his face extremely calm.

But Jin Chuan'er next to her felt chilly, and unconsciously moved away from her.

--

Jia Baoyu sobbed twice, feeling that the place on his body where the bamboo sticks were drawn was burning hot.

He lifted his sleeves and saw the two red marks on his arms, and felt more pain.

"Xiren, quickly take the medicine and rub it on me." He blew on his arm lightly, couldn't help raising his head and said, "Xiren."

Every time I was injured by the master, Xiren would come to give me medicine as soon as possible. What happened today?I can't even call myself.

He raised his head and saw Xiren's pale face, he couldn't help being startled.

Only then did Xiren come back to his senses, two lines of hot tears welled up in his eyes, he knelt down in front of Baoyu, grabbed his clothes and said, "Second Master, you must save me."

Baoyu reached out to help her: "What's wrong with you? Has Bihen been kicked out to scare you? Don't worry, my wife likes you the most and will definitely keep you."

Xiren shook his head, tears falling down one after another.

"Second Master, the old lady gave me to you, and I will treat myself as yours. Even with a knife on my neck, I can't leave Second Master! So in the past, what Second Master said was what he said. But Now that Bihen is like this, he must be jealous that he was sent out, and I stayed with Second Master, so he is going to report to his wife! Second Master, Second Master, please help me."

Jia Baoyu also recovered.

His face also turned pale.

Although he usually likes to eat the rouge on girls' lips and flirts with the maids, in fact, among all the maids, the only one who has ever been married to him is Xiren!

What did they say then.

That's right, it is said that the old lady gave him the attack, that is, to be the housekeeper, so it's okay to implement it in advance.But in fact, the old lady's maid for Baoyu and Qingwen, it is not known who is in the young master's room.

But the only thing we know is that neither Mother Jia nor Mrs. Wang can bear the maidservant's initiative to seduce the young master.

Not to mention that Jia Baoyu was only 13 years old last year, even in a few years, Mrs. Wang would rush into her room and beat out all the maids she thought were flirtatious.

Although Jia Baoyu is sweet when coaxing people, he actually understands Madam Wang's taboos and bottom line in his heart.

Otherwise, after being caught flirting with Jin Chuan'er, she wouldn't turn around and run away, faster than a rabbit.It is precisely because he knows that he cannot afford the reaction his parents will have.

Just as Xiren was about to continue crying, he saw Jia Baoyu trembling, hugging his arms and crying

He said: "Just now the master beat me because of these things, if Bihen sues me again now, wouldn't the master want to beat me again, I'm afraid my wife won't protect me anymore."

The attacker was stunned.

What?At this time, Jia Baoyu didn't think about protecting her, but whether he would be beaten?

She was stunned, but Jia Baoyu was not.

He immediately ran to the door: "Mingyan, hurry up, tell them to get off the carriages and horses, and send me to the gate of the palace immediately. If the master asks, he will say that His Royal Highness Fifth ordered me to go back, or that the Beijing Palace asked me to go back." OK."

Although Jia Baoyu did not meet King Jing on the way to Qin Keqing's funeral because he entered the palace as a companion.But also because of the accompanying reading, I received a post from King Beijing Jing, and the two still hit it off.The Beijing Palace also became a place for Jia Baoyu to avoid being beaten.

Xiren's heart is simply chilled.

"Second Master... You, are you going to leave me behind?"

Jia Baoyu's tone was still so gentle, and his face was still so handsome.Even the eye circles were red, and she shed tears with real emotion: "Xi Ren."

A little hope was rekindled in Xiren's heart, he looked at Jia Baoyu, and waited for his words.

Jia Baoyu burst into tears: "Xi Ren, woo woo woo."

After crying three times, Jia Baoyu turned and ran away.

Sadness is sad, but you still have to run as soon as possible.

Xi Renmu just sat there blankly.She could actually hold Jia Baoyu, the two of them were obviously so close.But she knew it was useless.

It doesn't matter if you hold him back, he won't stand up in front of him, and he doesn't even dare to intercede for him.

Jia Baoyu felt extremely uncomfortable, wiped his face with his sleeve, and walked out in a muffled voice.

Ming Yan was taken aback: "Second Master, Master hit you again? Why don't you go and pay your respects to the old lady." Second Master can't call to Rongqing Hall!

Hearing the old lady, Jia Baoyu was stunned: "By the way, I will ask the old lady! No, the old lady will also be angry, and maybe she will drive the attacker away."

Jia Baoyu has an animal-like intuition, and always feels that the old lady has been very strict with him these past few months, just like another father.Wasn't the old lady responsible for dismissing his maid last time?

He paused and his eyes lit up: "Well, then I'll go and ask Sister Lin. The old lady loves Sister Lin the most, and Sister Lin will definitely listen to her plea! And Sister Lin knows my heart best, and she will definitely agree to me! "
