The Red Mansion's Late Welcome Spring

'Boiling frogs in warm water' - Jia Yingchun thought that this was probably the method the emperor was currently using. He never uprooted all the disliked old families, but slowly grinded them one by one. Last time it was the Zhen family. , this time...it was replaced by the Wang family.

Not a few days after Xiao Yun sent the news of Jia Yingchun's safe delivery, Pan You'an and Si Qi came to Xiao's house in Haining with a lot of food, and the news that Wang Ziteng passed away on the way back to Beijing was also brought by them. of.

"Fortunately, I was able to make it in time for my grandma when she was about to go into confinement. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to make it. I kept urging my cousin all the way." Si Qi sat beside Jia Yingchun's bed with a happy face, and said with a smile.

Siqi's appearance is much plump compared to when Jia Yingchun just left Beijing, it can be seen that Pan You'an took good care of her, and Jia Yingchun and Xiuju beside her were also happy for her.

"What's the rush? It's serious to have a safe journey, but why don't you come back after the New Year, and why do you have to come at this time?" Jia Yingchun said helplessly.

"I can't help it! In fact, I should have left earlier. I planned to wait for Miss Lin, oh! Now I'm going to call Mistress Duan, and I'll come right after Mistress Duan's wedding. , There was something wrong with the goods in the shop again, my cousin couldn't leave for a while, and I was worried that I was alone, so it took more than a month to get on the road. The second grandma Lian also told me to bring a lot of things, she said, I am afraid that you will have a baby for the first time, there must be a lot of things that are not fully prepared, and you may not be able to buy suitable ones here, so our pace will naturally not be faster." Siqi still had a straightforward tone, how did he drag them here? The reason why I arrived in Haining in a while was explained again.

"Sister-in-law is also true. It's not far from Jinling and Hangzhou, but you can't buy it here. It's not the same if you let Mo Yun and the others get tired and go to those places to buy it. Why do you bother to bring it here?" Jia Yingchun said angrily and funny .

"I think so too, but Second Grandma Lian has her own heart, so how dare I refuse on behalf of Grandma? By the way! Grandma, does Grandma know that Second Grandma Lian's eldest uncle has passed away?" Si Qi suddenly changed his tone and asked in a low voice. .

"Really? When did it happen? I really don't know." Jia Yingchun was slightly taken aback. She knew that Wang Ziteng would not live long, but she was still quite surprised when she heard it.

"When we spent the night at an inn in Suzhou two days ago, my cousin heard about the news in the mansion newspaper from the officials there. That's why I knew about it. I thought grandma should have known about it a long time ago. Could it be that the news hasn't reached here yet? Come?" Siqi replied.

"Perhaps the second master knew about it, but he didn't come back yesterday, so no one mentioned it to me... the virtuous concubine in the palace..." Jia Yingchun remembered that there was news of Jia Yuanchun's pregnancy at that time, so she forgot All of a sudden, Jia Yuanchun was supposed to give birth a month earlier than her, but he didn't hear any news...

"Your Majesty still gave birth to a prince, but the man in Rongguo's mansion was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut, but I heard that the little prince's health is not as healthy as imagined, so the emperor seems unwilling to publicize it. Second wife He also complained in private for a long time, and according to the news that his cousin inquired, several imperial physicians asserted that whether the little prince can survive next year is a big problem." Siqi interjected to explain his confusion.

"Do you know what's going on? Could it be that someone wants to harm your mother?" Jia Yingchun frowned slightly and asked in puzzlement.

"I don't know about that, hey! Grandma, let's rest, don't disturb your confinement recuperation just because of me, if the second master wants to know, he will annoy me." Siqi heard the sound outside the door , suddenly realized that he and Jia Yingchun had been talking for a long time, so he quickly persuaded Jia Yingchun to rest.

With the help of two more chess players at home, the burden on Xiuju's shoulders will naturally be much lighter, and everyone can rest assured, otherwise Jia Yingchun and others will help her if she is a pregnant woman busy. Cold sweat, although Yuegui and Yuerong always persuade Xiuju to rest more, but Xiuju is not at ease. Tangerine understands thoroughly.

The day before the full moon, Uncle Lin Chuan also sent the name he had chosen for the eldest grandson of the second room. The family letter also faintly revealed to the two that the probability of Liu's baby being a boy is extremely high, so they don't have to worry too much, but Jia Yingchun But I feel that the ultrasound of Western medicine is always wrong, so we don't have to put too much faith in the results of this kind of guessing based on experience.

"From now on, our son will be called Brother Ran, or what nickname do you want to give him?" After reading the letter, Xiao Yun briefly told Jia Yingchun about the things in the letter, and then said.

"Brother Ran is enough. Look at him, he is healthy and healthy, so he doesn't need a nickname to cheer him up?" Jia Yingchun replied with satisfaction, holding her soft and fragrant son.

"That's right. Tomorrow I invited Du Qianshi and the others to come over for a full moon wine. By the way, it's counted as a spring wine, so the female family members of their family should also come. You let Pan You'an's family follow you, Mo Yun's family I told her not to come out, Mo Yun complained to me these two days, saying that his heart was in a state of ups and downs every day, but his wife couldn't persuade him, so he begged me to tell you." Xiao Yun nodded. After echoing a sentence, he continued.

"Where have I never persuaded her? She just can't take it easy, and I can't help it, but I have Yuerong and a little head guarding her. Anyway, there are... There are people around me, and I will survive for another two months." Well, just wait until the baby is born." Jia Yingchun sighed helplessly.

Xiao Yun nodded, he knew that his wife would not let his caring servant girl have something to do under her nose, besides, they were servants who were lucky to meet a good master, otherwise, how could there be a time to rest?

On the day of the full moon, it was the first time that Xiao Yun and his family were so lively since they came to Haining. Cai Yun, the commander of the guard station, and Gao Yong, the commander of the guard, also sent their family members to give gifts. They are not as good as them, but Xiao Yun's background is tougher than theirs, and he is not sure where he will return to Beijing to be promoted, so he never dared to interfere with Xiao Yun's actions in the guard, and even faintly flattered him. mean.

And Xiao Yun usually doesn't take their actions to heart, and has never done anything beyond the rules. After coming here for nearly a year, he has always done what he should do, except occasionally meeting the other three. When he was maliciously exploiting soldiers, he would inadvertently persuade him a few words, but he would not intentionally use his power to overwhelm others.

However, many guards have officers oppressing soldiers. Xiao Yun himself understands that he can't interfere with too many things. The only thing he can do is to secretly help a few families whose conditions are relatively poor, so that they can have enough food and clothing. He is not a philanthropist, nor is he a rich man, so there is no need to slap a swollen face to pretend to be fat.

"Madam's child is so cute, I'm so envious." A somewhat familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded in Jia Yingchun's ear.

Jia Yingchun looked around warily, and it turned out that it was the girl Xu who came to the house every three days to recommend herself as an aunt a few months ago.

"If Ms. Xu is envious, she might as well get married to Governor Tong earlier. If things go well, she will have a fat baby in her arms next year." Jia Yingchun smiled disapprovingly.

"Hmph!" Miss Xu sneered, but she didn't dare to do anything to Jia Yingchun.

Speaking of which, it was Miss Xu's good luck. At that time, Xiao Yun heard that Xu Qian's wife brought a young girl in and out of his house from time to time, so he immediately dragged out a group of unmarried boys in the guard, and then "very kindly" On behalf of Tong En, who has just been promoted to governor, he is the matchmaker, and promises Miss Xu to Tong En.

Does this kind of thing sound like a good idea?However, as we all know, Tong Zhi is already in his early thirties this year. He married a woman who passed away in childbirth five years ago, leaving behind a daughter who will be five years old this year. Miss Xu used to be a cheap mother. But Xu Qianshi and his cousin didn't dare to say a word. At the beginning, they all thought that Xiao Yun was able to become an official in this place because of his ancestral shadow, and his behavior was equivalent to taking the brothers' promotion. lack, so some look down on him.

What I didn't expect was that in less than half a year, Xiao Yun had already cleaned up the entire guard. Now, no one dares to say that Xiao Yun is incompetent, and he should try to please him, for fear that he will be unhappy alone. , Turn around and complain to your superiors, telling them to be unlucky.

"Miss Xu, what's the matter? If your throat is uncomfortable, there is just hot tea over there to warm your throat. If you are not feeling well, I advise you to go home early and rest. Our grandma has to raise a child, and her bones can't bear it." Illness at 01:30." Siqi standing next to Jia Yingchun had heard about the great deeds of Miss Xu from Xiuju, and now seeing that she had no respect for Jia Yingchun, he immediately became angry Yes, said sarcastically.

"You! It's just a servant girl who serves people. What are you so proud of?! Do you think I'm rare? Just leave. If my aunt didn't ask me, I wouldn't want to come to the door." Miss Xu became a little angry from embarrassment. retorted.

"Oh~~Xiaoqiu, don't rush to send this girl out, I will remember that if there is a party or something in the future, I will definitely not cause trouble for the girl." Siqi pretended to be dazed, smiling happily Said.

No matter how thick-skinned Miss Xu was, she couldn't stop Si Qi's repeated sarcasm, her complexion immediately changed inexplicably, and she followed the little girl out of the door in an extremely ugly manner.

Most of the women who were still at the banquet had heard about the previous events. On the one hand, they envied Jia Yingchun's good luck to be able to marry such a dedicated and loving man like Xiao Yun, on the other hand, they also felt that Jia Yingchun was quite daring. To be blunt, I'm ashamed to see other people's little girl.

But from the beginning to the end, no one was willing to stand up and speak for that Miss Xu. Even Chen, who brought Miss Xu to the banquet today, had made her husband scold him several times for that matter before, so he didn't want to speak up now. He dared to stand up for Miss Xu again, and even regretted in his heart that he shouldn't have brought Miss Xu here to the banquet in a moment of tenderness. In case the host got annoyed with her, it would be difficult to explain when he went back.

Chen's heart was in the air, until the banquet was over, she didn't see Jia Yingchun showing any respect to her, so she let go of her mind a little bit, and apologized to Jia Yingchun nervously before leaving, but Jia Yingchun only With a smile, someone sent Mrs. Chen out without saying a word about Ms. Xu.
