[Red Chamber] Come for a hexagram?

Jia Fu.

Mrs. Wang was sitting on a small step, and a pretty maid was behind her helping her to massage her cervical spine.Mrs. Wang squinted her eyes and was silent for a while, before she said calmly: "Young girl Feng, what do you say about Baoyu's appearance?"

Wang Xifeng sat below with a cup of tea in her hand, and smiled helplessly when she heard Mrs. Wang's words: "Auntie, relax, maybe it will be better in a few days?"

"Okay? How long has it been..." Mrs. Wang sighed, "Tell me, if someone goes to Yangzhou to pick up Daiyu, will Baoyu be okay?"

"This..." Wang Xifeng pondered for a while, and said, "Then Lin Tanhua probably doesn't want to let Xiaoer come again."

"Tell me, what's so good about a Lin Daiyu." At this point, Mrs. Wang had a look of resentment: "Can Baoyu never forget?"

"Speaking of Mao'er, what about Zijuan who often follows Mao'er?" Wang Xifeng asked, "Why don't you give that Zijuan to Baoyu? Persuade, maybe it can be better."

"Zicuckoo?" Mrs. Wang thought of the maid who often followed Lin Daiyu, because Lin Daiyu was forcibly taken away by the Lin family, and she was quick to do so, and even a lot of luggage that was not close to her body was not brought, but was discarded here.And the maid who was sent to serve by Jia Mu, and the contract of selling herself was not in Lin Daiyu's hands at all, was naturally not the one who would be taken away.So when Lin Daiyu left, she could only return to Jia Mu and continue to be a second-class maid.

Mrs. Wang moved her mind and wanted to push people to Baoyu, so Zijuan naturally had nothing to do with it.Although she can't be a big maid, a second-class maid who is valued is not bad compared to a big maid.Although Xiren is not easy to fool, Xiren at least behaved generously. As long as Zijuan goes to Baoyu's place, he should be careful and he won't suffer too much.

This was told by Wang Xifeng to Mrs. Wang, so those who went to Jia's mother to ask Zijuan to be sent to Jia Baoyu were naturally pushed to Wang Xifeng by Mrs. Wang.

This made Wang Xifeng a little helpless, asking Jia's mother for a maid for the uncle of the second room, what's the matter!As a mother, Mrs. Wang couldn't be ashamed of begging a maid for her son. Could it be that she, Wang Xifeng, would be so embarrassing?

But there was no other way, in the end Wang Xifeng still mentioned a little bit to the servant girl Yuanyang in a roundabout way, Yuanyang had a clear mind and immediately understood what Wang Xifeng meant.I also understand that it must be the person from the second room who pushed Wang Xifeng out.So she also made a favor and mentioned this matter to Jia Mu.

Recently, Jia's mother has also lost her mind because of Baoyu's disturbance. She sent several letters to the Lin family, but there was no news.Jia's mother could also guess in her heart that Lin Ruhai probably knew about Daiyu and Baoyu sleeping together.Before Jia Min left, Jia's mother once mentioned in the correspondence with her daughter that she intended to pull the strings for Daiyu and Baoyu, and the content of her daughter's reply letter also expressed this intention, but Lin Ruhai never nodded, and Daiyu was still very young at the time. , so it is not settled.Now that Jia Min has gone, what is wrong with her trying to match Daiyu and Baoyu?Otherwise, which family would marry a widow and eldest daughter?Although her methods are a bit inferior, is it not for Daiyu's good?

Now that Lin Ruhai doesn't give face, she is an old man in her decades, so Mrs. Yipin Gaoming can't be ashamed to ask for it?It's just that I don't want to worry about Baoyu.Although Wang Xifeng's idea can't solve the root cause, it can barely cure the symptoms.With the idea of ​​giving it a try, Mother Jia taught Zijuan herself, promised some benefits, and warned her what to say and what not to say, so she gave her to Baoyu.

It is also Zicuckoo who has the ability to coax people, but in a few days, Baoyu will be fine.Although he did not regain his former spirit, he was not so crazy.

This made Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang happy to appreciate a lot of good things from Zicuckoo.

Although she is only a second-class maid, Zijuan is even more popular than Xiren.

Baoyu's incident gradually passed, and the matter of Wang Ren's appointment as a fifth-rank member Wailang was naturally slowly brought up in Jia's mansion.

It wasn't Mrs. Wang and others from the second room who spoke up first, but Mrs. Xing, who was not very good in the big room, spoke first.It was probably because Jia Mu had been getting a lot of headaches from Jia Baoyu recently, and finally Jia Baoyu stopped, and Mrs. Xing wanted to say something good to make Jia Mu happy.

However, when Mother Jia heard that Wang Ren was promoted by the emperor, she was not as happy as Mrs. Xing imagined.

After all, no matter how good Wang Ren is, it is because the Wang family is not the Jia family. Compared with the decline here, Jane in the heart of the emperor over there, how much is there to be happy about?

"Brother Ren is indeed capable." Even so, they are in-laws after all, Mother Jia said with a smile on her face.

Wang Xifeng also nodded: "I didn't expect this either. My brother usually does things without being conspicuous. I didn't expect that he would go out with the emperor on a southern tour with his father, and he would be valued by the emperor all at once. Let me tell you, after years of hard work Reading, it’s better to show your face in front of the emperor one day, and get a lot.”

Mother Jia also nodded her head in agreement, and said, "In the future, let's move around more, especially Lian'er. Wang Renna is also his eldest brother-in-law, so it's always good to see him more."

Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "That's what I told him, but he always said he was busy."

"Busy, what is he busy with?" Jia Mu snorted coldly: "In a few days, I want Lian'er to prepare some gifts and go to congratulate Brother Ren! Then you go with him and visit your brother too." , Is it more stable after becoming an official?"

Wang Xifeng's face brightened after hearing this, and said: "Isn't the old lady joking with us?"

"You're the one with the sharp tongue." The old lady laughed.

Then he said some more words, the old lady was a little tired, and let these people disperse.

When Wang Xifeng returned to her room, she happened to meet Jia Lian and said, "Why, why did you come back so early today?"

"Well, why, you don't welcome me back?" Jia Lian put the fan on the table, leaned back on the chair and said lazily, "I heard rumors about your brother again when I went out today."

"Again?" Wang Xifeng thought for a while and laughed, "It's all done overnight. It would be strange if there is not a few small talk in the market!"

"This time I heard that the eighth elder brother admires brother Ren very much and wants to meet." Jia Lian smiled and said, "Brother Ren is really capable."

"Eighth elder brother?" Wang Xifeng asked doubtfully, "Why did you get involved with an elder brother?"

"An elder brother?" Jia Lian laughed and said, "That's why you are ignorant. As far as I know, Brother Ren is not only admired by the eighth elder brother, but also very close to the fourth and thirteenth elder brothers."

"Where did you get all this information?" Wang Xifeng wondered, "Why don't I know anything about it?"

"Hmph~ I know quite a few people." Jia Lian said with a smile, "Of course I know through my own way."

"This..." Surprise appeared on Wang Xifeng's face, and he said in a low voice, "I don't know when he has such ability..."

"If you ask me to tell you what brother Ren is capable of, you haven't seen through yet." Jia Lian laughed.

"In that case, why haven't you come to the door to congratulate?" Wang Xifeng said angrily.

"You think I didn't go?" At this point, Jia Lian snorted coldly: "I have already been there when the jade lump was still making trouble, but...the threshold of your house is really high, and I have been stopped more than once. come out."

"Someone stop you?" Wang Xifeng was startled and angry: "Who dares to stop you?"

"It's not that I'm blocked at the door, but every time, I don't see anyone." Jia Lian said, "Every time I tell Brother Ren to go out and ask me to come back next time."

"Won't you hand over the greeting card first and make an appointment?"

"I handed it over, but the reply I got was that Brother Ren didn't have time recently." Jia Lian said with a wry smile and said, "I see, there are too many visits, so Brother Ren simply rejected them all." Bar."

There are many big families like Jia's family with status and reputation but no real power in the capital.Naturally, they wanted to hug their thighs quickly before Wang Ren had fully developed, fearing that there would be many people who would find it difficult to meet in the future.

"Others are others, you are you. If he stops others, will he also stop you? Tomorrow, I will go with you!" Wang Xifeng said bitterly: "I am the daughter of the Wang family, Wang Ren's younger sister. He is not seen by others, is it my sister?" He and his sister-in-law came to see him, but can he stay behind closed doors?"

Jia Lian laughed softly, got up and hugged Wang Xifeng into her arms and coaxed her: "Good man, you really are the best to me..."

"Hmph, did you know..."

On the second day, not long after Wang Ren just woke up, he heard the noise outside, and suddenly felt bad.Recently, Wang Ren had nothing to do, so Wang Ren only got up for half a day, and he didn't get up until three poles in the sun. The servants knew his daily routine these days, so even though it was almost noon, it was still quiet here.It's been a long time since this chaotic sound.

"What's going on?" He looked at Zhu Sha, the big maid beside him, the only honest maid who didn't have any extra thoughts and worked wholeheartedly.

"Master, it's Miss Feng who's back, and there's also Uncle Jia, Miss Feng's husband, and they're here to congratulate you."

Wang Ren: Is this to congratulate me or to trouble me?

"What's the matter with the yard being so messy?" Wang Ren asked, rubbing his brows.

"Because Uncle Jia was neglected when he came here before, so...Miss Feng is reprimanding those ignorant slaves." Zhu Sha said.

"Tsk... I really know how to find trouble." Wang Ren stood up, put on his clothes under the service of the maid, washed his face and tidied up, and went out.After leaving his small courtyard and coming to the main house, he saw a kneeling in the courtyard.

"What's the matter?" Wang Ren looked at Wang Xifeng on the stage dissatisfied: "Congratulate me, or demonstrate to me?"

Wang Xifeng was taken aback by Wang Ren's angry eyes, and then remembered that Wang Ren's current identity and status were not comparable to the dandy in the past who only knew about eating, drinking and having fun.He smiled and said: "Good brother, don't be angry with me, it's just that these servants are too lazy, I can't see it, so I'll teach you a lesson. Let's not talk about that. Brother, we brought you good things from Jia's mansion. My brother is too heretic, and he was appointed as a fifth-rank official by the Holy Master. Why did you never write to the Jia family for such a big event? Let us know so that we can have fun together. Instead, we hid at home and slept."

"It's just an idle job with no real power. What's there to be happy about?" Wang Ren said.

Disperse the group of kneeling servants and continue working.Wang Xifeng also vented her prestige here to calm her heart, and now that Wang Ren has come out, she will not make trouble anymore.Joyfully walking to the front room with Wang Ren, they happened to see Jia Lian who was drinking tea in the front room.

Jia Lian finally saw Wang Ren, immediately with joy on his face, he cupped his hands and went forward to congratulate him: "A few months ago, I met Brother Ren on the street. At that time, Brother Ren was still white. Now when we meet again, he is already a member of the fifth grade. Brother Ren is really amazing."
