You're Crossing the Red Mansions

The family-saving villa was finally completed in early November. Jia Zheng took several Qing guests to various places to look at it one by one, and guessing the wishes of the concubine Yuan, he asked Baoyu to write an inscription and leave a name.The rest of the purchases were also made in the same way. Jia Zheng planned to ask for an order before the year, and because the new year was approaching, the whole Rongfu became busier.Half a month before the twelfth lunar month, Jia Qiang bought twelve small opera actors from the south of the Yangtze River and returned to Beijing, and the rest of the little nuns and Taoist priests were also placed in place, and Miaoyu also specially invited them from Xuantou Panxiang Temple to live in them. In Changcui nunnery.Because she was originally a young lady, Mrs. Wang took extra care of her, and specially transported some high-quality rouge plums from the north to her.Although they didn't touch the ground, Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng were very happy all day long. Today they were discussing to move Aunt Xue from Lixiangyuan, and then let Jia Qiang live in with the little opera singer and teacher.Because Yuan Chun was a good show when he was at home, and sent a group of old people who knew this well in the past to live together in Lixiangyuan to take care of the twelve girls. Also in order.

Because Lixiangyuan was occupied, Mrs. Wang took the opportunity to have someone clean up an empty house in the northeast corner, and sent people to help Aunt Xue move.Xue Pan heard that the Pear Fragrance Court had a new purpose, and was about to take the opportunity to move out of the Rongguo Mansion. After all, the Xue family's house in the capital had been cleaned a long time ago, so it was useless to leave it empty.Helpless, Aunt Xue saw that Baochai and Baoyu were in love, so she was willing to give up all her previous efforts, not to mention that the new house was close to Jiamu's yard, so she sent Xue Pan out with a few words.Xue Pan got angry and wanted to live outside by herself. Aunt Xue cried and wiped her tears when she heard this. Baochai was also afraid that her brother would cause trouble outside, so she didn't feel restrained, so she persuaded her together.Xue Pan's heart was soft, and he couldn't bear to refute his mother and sister. Although he was depressed, he had no choice but to stay in the Rong Mansion without mentioning it.

Over there, when Mother Jia heard that Aunt Xue had moved, and that the new residence was closer to the main courtyard than Lixiangyuan, her heart suddenly became brighter.But Mrs. Wang also said several times, openly and secretly, that she took a large sum of money from Xue's family for the garden built by the empress, and that she was soft on others, so Mother Jia couldn't say anything more.Seeing that Jiamu was unhappy, Yuanyang thought it was because of Zijuan's going out to recuperate a while ago, so she tactfully persuaded: "The servants know that the old lady loves Miss Lin, so just see whoever is doing their best to point it out." Jiamu Sighing, shaking his head slightly.That day when Daiyu hurried back and forth Zijuan fell ill, Li Wan went to the doctor to see him in a panic, saying that although it was not a serious illness, he was terribly afraid of being overwhelmed, so he had to pack it up and send it out.Jiamu didn't have any doubts at first, but later it was Hupo who secretly heard the little girl talking about Zijuan's confusion when she was about to go out, calling her second master, and the hot girl named Qiaomei in Daiyu's room immediately stuffed her handkerchief He stopped his mouth in the past and ordered him to carry it out quickly, and rewarded the people present with two slings of money. Everyone knew that there must be something in it, but they didn't dare to inquire casually.Although Zijuan went out in a disgraceful way, Xueyan packed six or seven boxes and cages in the back, so she didn't feel wronged. Daiyu also gave Zijuan's family 50 taels of silver, showing that she was indifferent.

Amber knew that the matter was of great importance, so she didn't dare to hide it, so she found someone to betray her and told Mother Jia.The old lady was so angry that she wanted Zijuan to serve Daiyu well, and she had already hinted that she would not wrong her in the future.The girl who came out of her own hand had such a scandal, Jia Mu sent Zijuan and her family to Changping Zhuangzi in a rage, and because Zijuan was getting old, she ordered the person in charge of the Zhuangzi to do whatever she wanted. Just match him with a servant, and he is ordered never to enter the mansion to serve.The other governor's little girls also sent out in different ways, because this matter was secret, no one knew about it.Now that the mandarin ducks are talking about calling people in Daiyu's house, Jia Mu frowned, thinking of the big girls around her, mandarin ducks and amber are absolutely inseparable from her body, as for the emerald glass and others, looking at their usual His behavior was somewhat frivolous, even if he went to Daiyu's room, it was hard not to follow in the footsteps of Parrot.Forget it, after the empress's big event, it's time to change all the maids in the family, so let's talk about it at that time.

But he said that Xue Pan was forced to stay in the Rong Mansion, he had no interest in reading books, and other people took care of the business of the shop.Baoyu is an embroidered pillow, how can he be worthy of his own sister?And Xiangling used to do needlework with Aunt Xue during the day, and was bumped into by Jia Baoyu several times in two or three days, thinking about it made her very unhappy, thinking about moving out, and fearing that her mother would not allow her, she was so irritable Shi suddenly remembered that he hadn't visited Ningguo Mansion for a long time, so he took the servant to find Jia Zhen to have fun.

Woke up early this day, You Xiaoxiao had just had breakfast, and was discussing with Yindie to make two more new clothes for the maids of Zhaolan Courtyard, which was another respectability.Hearing that Uncle Xue was coming, she couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm busy with nothing, I'm afraid your uncle is too lazy to perfunctory." Jia Zhen has been indifferent to Xue Pan for a long time because of the matter of Qin Keqing's coffin. After leaving him, coupled with the complicated affairs at home, it was a long time since I saw him.Yindie also laughed and said: "At this moment, the uncle and the housekeeper are so busy that they can't even eat. The expenses of the whole year in the house, the filial piety of the Zhuangzi outside, and the annual gifts for sacrificial utensils are given to you. You don’t have to worry about any of the food and rice that those people in the clan prepare for the new year?” You Xiaoxiao nodded, in previous years, Jia Rong helped with the preparations, and now she went to the Imperial College to study, so it’s good to be able to come home after school on December 23.The master and the servant were talking, when a little girl outside came to report: "Grandma, Miss You Er is here." You Xiaoxiao heard this, and remembered the last time she asked for money, but she forgot about it when she was too busy, so she just took the opportunity I asked, so I ordered to come in quickly.After entering the door, seeing Second Sister You's red eyes from crying, she could only sigh and let her sit down. Yindie served tea, watched her take a few sips of hot water, and then slowly asked: "What's wrong?"

It turned out that Second Sister You secretly took the silver back since last time, and entrusted an old family member to finally find Zhang Hua who lived in the car shop outside. Encourage Wan to come to You Mansion early to ask for marriage.Zhang Hua promised well in person, and said that she would live up to it. The second sister thought she would be dependable for life, and since then she returned home looking forward day and night, thinking that Zhang Huan would come to marry her as soon as possible.Unexpectedly, after two months, there was no news at all.The second sister was anxious, and sent the old servant to look for it secretly several times. People in and out of the shop said they had never seen Zhang Hua.I saw a shopkeeper on the street, but said that the man bought the horse and left two months ago.Second Sister You knew that she had been deceived, so she spent every day at home eating and drinking without thinking about it, and shed tears on her face.Mrs. You said that Zhang Hua was a cunning thief, and after being kicked out, she knew that she couldn't come back.But Second Sister You insisted, so she followed her temperament and waited for a long time. Seeing that she didn't come for a long time, she knew that she didn't have enough money, so she sprayed the blood on her head at home.I went to find a matchmaker on the street corner, and said that I would marry my daughter.Although You Mansion is not a big family, Master You was still a bit respectable when he was there, at least he could get rid of the official media.Now Mrs. You only cares about money, and the matchmaker didn’t expect that she could do such a business by going from door to door, and I heard that as long as the dowry gift is rich, it doesn’t matter whether she is old, ugly or beautiful, she doesn’t care whether she enters the door as the main house or a small Concubine, she was so happy that she flattered Mrs. You to heaven.The beauty of the two girls from You's family is well-known in the whole street, not to mention how many people are jealous, if they open their mouths, they are afraid that suitors will rush to break the door, and this money will surely make a lot of money.

So the matchmaker opened her mouth cleverly and walked diligently. The posts she sent to You's house day by day were all worse than the same. There are people who ask for horoscopes to say to their sons, all these are unbearable.Mrs. You only cares about the amount of money paid by that family, and doesn't care about the rest.Second Sister You was anxious and frightened, crying and about to hang herself.Mrs. You saw that the second girl was weak, and she didn't take it seriously, so she scolded: "It's because you don't have the ability to marry a high-ranking mansion, and you won't accept my love even if you try your best! Now if someone wants to marry you, you can marry her." Let's go!" Second Sister You knew that it was her mother complaining that she didn't seduce Jia Zhen at Jia's house, and she was bored in the house every day when she got home.Then look at my younger sister, Third Sister You, who goes out to show off her family all day long, and from time to time can bring some money back home to live, but Mrs. You talks and laughs when she sees her, boasting about her ability every day, and doesn't mention marrying her. For the matter, I only said that I will find a son-in-law for my third sister in the future, and we will live together, and then I am afraid that it will be difficult to raise another mouth.Second Sister You was really forced to do nothing, so she ran to find Eldest Sister again.When Mrs. You heard that she was coming to Ningguo Mansion, she thought she had finally opened up, so she specially asked Third Sister to bring some fresh jewelry for her to change into. Get out of the car and watch her go.

You Xiaoxiao was silent for a while after listening.Seeing this, Second Sister You hurriedly knelt down and said, "Elder Sister, I never have the same thoughts as my mother. This time I came to look for you, on the one hand, to tell about that silver, and on the other hand, I also begged Eldest Sister to accept me." Stay here..." After saying that, she began to cry.Yindie listened anxiously, lest You Xiaoxiao's heart would soften for a while and let Second Sister You stay, what if something happened to Grandma in the future, what would Grandma do?Seeing her bursting into tears like this, You Xiaoxiao actually felt a little pity for her in her heart.Called Yindie to help her up, and then asked gently: "You came in a hurry, can you eat?" Second Sister You shook her head lightly.You Xiaoxiao then sent someone to the kitchen to order a bowl of shredded pork noodles, and asked Huanyan to accompany her in the room to eat slowly.After finishing speaking, he took Yindie out.

Second Sister You didn't know what Big Sister meant, but she was always submissive and used to do what others told her to do, so she obediently waited in the room for noodles.After going out the door, Yindie was about to speak. Seeing her anxious, You Xiaoxiao smiled, then waved her hand and said, "You don't have to say, I have my own ideas." Although it is not shameful to commit to Jia Zhen in the end, both You Shi and You Lao Niang are suspected of contributing to the flames.Later, Second Sister You also knew that her identity was not right, that she was not a concubine or a concubine or was stealing, so after meeting Jia Lian, she had to change her mind and start a new life, and she wanted to be a virtuous person wholeheartedly. Under torture, he was forced to commit suicide by swallowing gold.Thinking about it carefully, poor people must have something to hate, and Second Sister You's reckless temperament is not shallow.However, no matter what, Second Sister You's ability to reject Jia Zhen after marrying Jia Lian is considered a bottom line in life, which is much better than Third Sister You's slut.Besides, now it seems that she is not a person who blindly pursues wealth and status, and she never disliked Zhang Hua's downfall, she only hated Zhang Hua for not living up to expectations.

You Xiaoxiao couldn't help sighing, although she really didn't want to see Mrs. You, etc., but after all, she was the wife married by her cheap father, and she was officially included in the family tree. Let her go on in such a disregard of face, it is also her mother's family shame.If Mrs. You were a few years younger, she would have been able to find someone to send her away, but now she is firmly occupying You's mansion, and using her two daughters as cash cows, and if it spreads, she will be implicated and make people laugh.Seeing You Xiaoxiao walking towards the flower hall, Yindie knew that she wanted to talk to Jia Zhen, so she quickly sent someone to let her know first.

At that time, Xue Pan didn't even wink at him. When he came, the room was full of people. Seeing him, Jia Zhen had no choice but to send everyone away.He sat for a long time, but still just dragged Jia Zhen to pour out the bitter water.He is Mrs. Wang's nephew and a child of the Xue family. Jia Zhen sees that it is not easy to evade for the face of relatives. Besides, he has played together before, so she occasionally chats with him while having tea.Xue Pan complained: "Brother Zhen, think about it, our Xue family is short of money or has no house, and my wife is going to drag us to live in your Jia family?" Jia Zhen knew that he was restrained and uncomfortable in that mansion, Quickly persuaded a few words.Xue Pan wanted to complain, but at this moment, he heard the servant report: "Grandma is here to find uncle." Jia Zhen quickly got up and said, "Brother, excuse me!" Before Xue Pan could react, she went out.

Seeing that Jia Zhen came out in a panic, You Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing and said, "Is Master Xue still in there?" He has a generous temper, but he is foolish enough to be loyal to his friends.In fact, Jia Zhen also knew that he was innocent and innocent, thinking that the matter of preparing the coffin for the old thousand-year-old was probably deceived by this fool, so it was difficult to mention it again. Today, I saw him speak his heart sincerely again, He also mentioned that his old mother gave Mrs. Wang a large sum of money for nothing, without even issuing an IOU. Thinking of Mrs. Wang's behavior in the West Mansion, she couldn't help but feel more sympathetic to him.So I just sat with him for half a day, You Xiaoxiao heard this, she didn't know Xue Pan was a person, she smiled slightly: "Uncle Xue came here just in time, I just want to be a matchmaker for him, so let's discuss it with him first. "
