You're Crossing the Red Mansions

In the early autumn, Mrs. Wang was released from prison.Baoyu and Xiuyan were waiting outside the Prison Temple. Seeing Mrs. Wang stumbling out with a desolate face, they rushed to meet her.Mrs. Wang stared blankly at her son, without saying a word, Baoyu couldn't help crying, "Madam, I'm Baoyu..." After saying that, she burst into tears.Mrs. Wang was still in a daze, Xiuyan hurriedly said, "Second master, you can't stay here for long, we'll pick up your wife and go home." Xiuyan's girl Xiaozhuan was clever, and hurriedly helped Mrs. Wang into the carriage, put down the curtain, and Seeing Mrs. Wang stagnated for a long while, she took her son's hand and burst into tears.Xiuyan watched and saw that Baoyu was sad, so she wiped away her tears and said softly to persuade her.Because of the bumpy road, Mrs. Wang knew that there was something wrong, so she quickly pulled up the curtain and looked out the window. Seeing that it was not the way to Rongguo Mansion, she couldn't help asking, "Where is this going?" Baoyu bowed her head and said, "It's our house." Zhuangzi." Mrs. Wang was about to speak, when Xiuyan said again: "The wife's body was seized by the officials during the raid that day, and the master owed money from outsiders, so I had no choice but to take the house and shop to pay off the debt. Now there is only one farm left, the old master decided to divide the family, and the second master and I took over the old master to live together..." Mrs. Wang couldn't help but feel anxious when she heard this, thinking that she would pay all the money she had accumulated over the years. Dongliu, coupled with Jia Zheng's lack of understanding of affairs, could not help but vomit a mouthful of blood and passed out. Baoyu was anxious, Xiuyan glanced at it, and said, "Madam, this is rushing to the heart. It's better to spit it out than to hold it in your heart."

When they arrived at the farm, Sheyue and Wu'er came out early to pick up Mrs. Wang and got off the car. Xiuyan said, "Hurry up and cook some hot soup for your wife to bathe and change clothes." For the monthly rent in Erhutong, I moved to the farm with my daughter and son-in-law.Seeing her daughter coming in now, she hurriedly said: "Did you take it back?" Xiuyan nodded, sat down and said to her mother: "I see that my mother's stature is about the same as my wife's, so I asked Xiaozhuan to send two pieces of clothes to the west room. Xing Zhong's daughter-in-law knows that her daughter is the master of the house, and she doesn't even bother to save face with her in-laws, so she is dissatisfied: "Where do I have a few clothes? What should I wear if I give her?" Xiuyan put down the tea bowl and said "I'll make you new clothes, so she can wear your old clothes in the future." After hearing this, Xing Zhong's daughter-in-law went to the cabinet to find some faded gray jackets and brought them out. Nodding his head, Xiao Zhuan took it to She Yue.After a while, she heard shouts from outside, and Musk Moon knocked lightly on the door outside and said, "Second Grandma, Madam let you go." After hearing this, Xiu Yan got up suddenly, and said to her parents: "From now on, our family will let you go." Let's live together, just be more polite to each other." Xing Zhong and his wife nodded quickly in agreement.

Mrs. Wang was really furious, and said to Xiuyan: "Which dirty woman wore these? Did you change them for me?" She Yue lowered her head and dared not speak, and Xiuyan walked over to take the old clothes I picked it up, folded it myself and put it in Mrs. Wang's hand, and said with a smile: "I told my wife on the way, our house is not the same as before, my wife's old clothes have been taken away by the officials, how can I make new ones now? From now on, we will naturally be more frugal in everything..." Mrs. Wang shouted: "These words have to be fooled by fools! Are you seeing my natal family defeated and treating me like this without money? Tell you, my aunt is still in the palace What!" Xiuyan smiled and said, "I don't understand what my wife said. What is harsh treatment? We can eat as much as we have bowls, and you won't be happy to change your clothes now. Let me tell you to my wife, there is only this Zhuangzi to make a fortune in front of me, and there is nothing like fat chickens and ducks. From now on, my wife will follow us to eat bran and swallow vegetables every day, but I want you to go to Shuntian Mansion to tell your daughter-in-law for disobedience?" Mrs. Wang was choked After a while, Xiuyan said again: "It's no wonder, my wife has been in prison for so long, and she probably doesn't know anything about the outside world. The daughter-in-law originally wanted to wait for her to change her clothes and eat something before talking about it in detail, but now It’s better not to say it.” Mrs. Wang was startled by what she said, her face turned pale, Xiuyan sneered and said: “A while ago, the queen mother passed away, and the empress has asked herself to go to Huangjue Temple to guard the spirit of the queen mother in the palace. I am grateful for my mother's sincerity, and I have been sealed as a master of Lingyin..." Mrs. Wang said anxiously: "Your mother is really confused!" Xiuyan raised her eyebrows and sneered: "Your mother is confused? Think about it yourself, the Zhen family committed crimes. For such a big case, you dare to take the box from their family. If it wasn’t for your empress who tried her best to protect you, I’m afraid your life will be dark..." Mrs. Wang was already stunned, and Xiuyan said again: "There is one more thing. My daughter-in-law dare not disobey what the master ordered, Xiaozhuan, go and get the divorce letter." Mrs. Wang heard the word divorce letter, panicked and frightened, and asked, "Divorce letter? What divorce letter?" Xiuyan also Without answering, he waited for Xiao Zhuan to hand over the divorce letter written by Jia Zheng to Madam Wang before he said: "The daughter-in-law followed the second master and persuaded the master, but the master only said that the wife is the root of the prodigal family, and that the Jia family does not tolerate such a daughter-in-law. , we have no choice. After the master wrote the letter of divorce, he went to Dongfu to register the genealogy. He also informed his uncle and wife. It's just that the uncle and wife have moved back to Jinling, and they refused to send someone to pick up his wife. I discussed with the second master, although the master does not recognize his wife, she is also the mother of the second master, so we still take care of her, but seeing the wife is so disgusted today, the daughter-in-law has nothing to say." After finishing speaking, Xiuyan went He took Xiaozhuantou and went out without looking back.

But Li Wan asked You Xiaoxiao for help, and found a house in Tiejiang'er Alley, which was very quiet and suitable for Jia Lan to study. On the day she moved from Daoxiang Village, Sister Feng naturally called her servants to help.You Xiaoxiao waited for the arrangement to be neat before bringing some things to look at. Li Wan received her for tea in the yard, and said with a smile, "I'm finally relieved after all these years." It didn't come easy, so he said: "It doesn't matter if you don't mention the past, now that Brother Lan is studying and progressing, wouldn't it be nice if you either talk to Feng girl every day, or come to our East Mansion for a stroll." Li Wan nodded He nodded and smiled again: "That day when I went to the mansion to check things, the elder asked me if I had seen Sangu's grandma. It seems to have disappeared out of thin air... Sigh, speaking of which, Grandma Sangu is only 17 years old this year, so she's still young." She sighed as she spoke.Back then when they were both in the Rongguo Mansion, although Tanchun was top-notch in his work, he never did anything serious. Later, when he was married into the Zhongshun Palace, he was ruined at such a young age, which is really pitiful.You Xiaoxiao hurriedly changed the subject and asked about Jia Cong and Li Wen. Li Wan smiled and said: "The eldest lady is very kind to Wen'er. I heard that this is a girl in my belly. I am equally happy, but the elder I want to record brother Cong under my wife's name, and I will have someone to support me when I divide the house." You Xiaoxiao nodded, and said a few gossips before leaving.

Huanyan helped her out, and asked in a low voice: "Still going to Zhenwu Temple?" Went to Wumiao Hutong.When they arrived at the innermost house, Huanyan knocked on the door lightly, and Caixia came out to greet her and said, "Grandma Zhen is here." You Xiaoxiao smiled, and entered the room together with Huanyan, Aunt Zhao was pulling A Taoist nun's hands were full of tears, and when they saw You Xiaoxiao coming in, they both stood up.You Xiaoxiao sighed: "Sangu's grandma has lost a lot." Aunt Zhao cried: "Although Brother Huan is promising, but when I think of Sangu's suffering like this, it will be very painful..." The Taoist girl dressed up It's Tanchun, since she left Zhongshun Prince's Mansion, she went to Shuixian nunnery to become a nun, waiting to see no one, because today is Aunt Zhao's birthday, so she came out to see her.You Xiaoxiao sat down, first took out a roll of silver and handed it to Aunt Zhao, saying: "This is the last season's profit in the silver building, Auntie will keep it." Tanchun nodded and said: "I can't help myself now, brother Huan is old. I'm still young, I beg sister-in-law Zhen to take care of her." You Xiaoxiao nodded silently, and hesitated for a long time before telling Tanchun about Mrs. Wang's release from prison.Tanchun sneered and said: "She is destined to commit such a capital crime. If the empress hadn't begged the queen in the palace, she should have been beheaded together." You Xiaoxiao knew that Tanchun hated Mrs. Wang deeply Well, Mrs. Wang's collection of Zhen's box is so obscure that everyone wonders how it was known by Shengjun. After listening to this, they will know that it may have nothing to do with Tanchun.You Xiaoxiao looked at her youthful but haggard face, and sighed deeply in her heart.That day Mrs. Fu came over secretly to talk, saying that King Zhongshun had been plotting rebellion for a long time, and had dug a secret hall under the Red Sandalwood Castle outside Beijing.Shengjun knew that he was up to no good, and kept waiting for the opportunity, thinking that if he couldn't win in one fell swoop, he wouldn't be able to scare the snake, so he indulged him very much all these years, but he didn't expect that it was Princess Zhongshun who could present the testimonial in the end!At that time, Shengjun really made up his mind to eradicate the alien party in one fell swoop, and played a good show with Lin Ruhai, which attracted the accomplices of King Zhongshun to jump up one by one, so that they could catch them all in one go.It's just that although Tanchun has made great achievements, she can't enter the world if she wants to save her life. She is also a smart person. She begged the holy king early to become a nun and abide by the rules all her life, so she escaped her life.It's just that when she thinks that she should have had a comfortable life like Yingchun, but was destroyed by Mrs. Wang and Yuanchun together, she must be extremely unwilling, so she sues again and completely destroys the second room. Just sacrifice your life to save your mother.In the end, she still thought of some benefits of Jia's mother, and saved the face of Rongguo Mansion, so the whole Jia's family did not suffer a complete defeat.You Xiaoxiao knew that it would not be easy for Tanchun to come out once, so she bid farewell and went back home, thinking of leaving more time for their mother and daughter to talk about themselves.

Just after entering the mansion, Hongzhi handed over a wedding invitation, You Xiaoxiao glanced at it, and couldn't help being surprised and said: "It's so fast?" It turned out that it was a post from the Wei family, saying that the eldest son of Wei had inherited the general In the mansion, there are banquets everywhere.Just as Jia Zhen came in, You Xiaoxiao sighed: "Young Master Wei's bones are not cold yet, this Eldest Young Master is too eager." After that, he thought of Xiang Yun again, frowned and said, "I don't know how Grandma Shi is crying." Jia Zhen Jane glanced at it and said: "The old general saw that the youngest son died, and there was only the eldest son by his side, and he had to think about how to rely on him in the future. The youngest son died in a confused way, and the old general didn't even bother to figure it out, so he just left it like this Let's live in chaos." You Xiaoxiao nodded silently, and Jia Zhen threw the post aside casually: "It's enough to send someone to send a big gift that day, and the Wei family should not get too close when doing things like this." Said Then he smiled and said: "Let me tell you a joke, the second master sent a long-term worker from Zhuangzi, saying that he wanted to teach in our academy..." You Xiaoxiao laughed: "The second master is full of eclectic words to teach No way!" Jia Zhen said: "That's exactly what I said. I refuted it at the time. I only said that the journey was far away, and I was more concerned about the second master's body. Now we have enough gentlemen in the academy, so I dare not bother. As a result, the long-term worker was dumbfounded. I didn’t leave for a long time, and I paid a few hundred dollars before sending it away, I’m really blind.” You Xiaoxiao said: “I’ve also heard that Second Grandma Bao is in charge of that room now, and the second master wants to follow It’s hard to live the same life in the past.” The couple sat down and chatted a few more gossips, only to hear the report from outside: “Grandpa and Grandma, Master Xiaorong sent someone from Baoding to deliver the Mid-Autumn Festival gift!” After hearing this, You Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, and went out with Jia Zhen.
