[Red Mansions] Dependents

Lin Ruhai went to Ningguo Mansion to pick up people in person just after finishing the business. In fact, Lin Ruhai didn't need to come in person. After dinner, Yaxin would send Daiyu back, but the purpose of Lin Ruhai's trip was to treat Yaxin personally. Thank you for taking care of Daiyu, so you must come in person to show your sincerity.

When Jia Rong received Lin Ruhai, Lin Ruhai specifically stated that he wanted to meet Yaxin and thank him face to face.Jia Rong thought that it would be inconvenient for the female relatives to meet foreigners, but since we are relatives, there is no reason why we should not know each other, so we can meet each other.

"Why did my uncle come here in person?" Yaxin was still very curious when she saw Lin Ruhai. Although she was old, she was well-cultivated, and her mannerisms were like everyone's, but she could vaguely see some of his arrogance when he was young. Arrogant, Yaxin couldn't figure out why, why did Lin Ruhai marry Jia Min?

Lin Ruhai waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, I came here personally to thank you for taking care of Yu'er."

"Uncle's words are too polite, Yu'er is so clever, whoever sees her won't want to take her home and treat her well." Yaxin lowered her head slightly and said, women in this society can't directly look at men, bow their heads replied.

Lin Ruhai said: "Then I won't say anything more. You entrusted me with a favor, and I will definitely do my best. Let's say goodbye today and come to visit later."

"Then it's Uncle Lao, Yu'er will come here often in the future. Rong'er, see off the guests for me." Yaxin said.

Daiyu pulled Yaxin and said: "Sister-in-law, you should think about Yu'er more, and you should come to Lin's house to visit Yu'er when you are free." Daiyu said to Miaoyu and Xichun, and then followed Lin Ruhai.

"Sister-in-law, what do you ask Uncle Lin for?" Xichun asked Yaxin, and Miaoyu also looked at Yaxin curiously.

Ke Qing smiled and said, "Little aunt, this is not something you should ask."

"You and sister-in-law know what, but you want to hide it from Xichun and sister Ran'er?" Xichun became more and more strange.

Yaxin said mysteriously: "I beg your uncle to help me find a husband for your sister Ran'er."

Suddenly, Miaoyu's face turned red, and she said coquettishly, "Auntie." Then she made a gesture to cover Yaxin's mouth, not to let her speak.

"Okay, okay, just don't say anything, aunt." Yaxin held Miaoyu and said with a smile, her eyes were full of teasing.

Miaoyu was also embarrassed, said a few words, pulled Xichun and ran away.

When they went back to their rooms at night, Jia Rong pulled Ke Qing and said, "My servant said, have you ever cried when you came out of mother's house today?"

"No, it's the smoke." Ke Qing said.

Jia Rong was unhappy and said, "We are husband and wife. I wouldn't know if you lied or not? Huh? Did you get scolded by your mother?" Jia Rong thought of the most unlikely possibility. Yaxin has never said anything harsh, and nothing happened these days that could make Keqing cry.

"Don't blame mother, mother is just teaching me some things, you can't say that about mother, how could mother be so kind and reckless?" Ke Qing defended Ya Xin, staring at Jia Rong with an expression of disrespect for a filial son.

Jia Rong smiled and said: "No wonder Mother loves you more and more, I'm getting further and further behind, I'm nothing, you are in a hurry to cover."

Ke Qing replied naturally: "It's natural, you've been so busy recently that my mother told me that I haven't seen you for several days, and almost forgot what you look like." Ke Qing was exaggerating.

"As long as you're talking nonsense, and you didn't see your mother yesterday, you're making me look like an unfilial son." Jia Rong said ruthlessly, pulling Ke Qing into her arms with all her strength, and hugged her tightly.

"Loosen up, I'm going to be out of breath." Ke Qing patted Jia Rong's hand on her waist and said.

"Then tell me what mother taught you today?" Even though I said that, I couldn't bear it in my heart, and my hands loosened a lot unconsciously.

Ke Qing glanced at Jia Rong and said, "What are you, a man, curious about about women's affairs?"

Jia Rong developed a childish temper: "Don't talk about it."

"Why have you been more irritable than Wa Wa recently? Let Wa Wa see Daddy like this, maybe he still recognizes you?" Ke Qing stared at Jia Rong as if he was watching a joke.

"Oh? Since the lady said so, tonight it's up to me to see how my husband will make trouble with you, lady." Jia Rong smiled evilly, but her hands were restless.

After a few days, there was good news from the palace that Empress Wei Lan was pregnant. Huangfu Hanyang and Wei Lan had been married for so many years, and there were only a few more concubines in the harem, but for some unknown reason, they had never had any children. , finally the queen is pregnant, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are at ease. It is a big event that the emperor has nothing to do, and the court will be turbulent and unstable.And the single royal family itself is also a great joy, the emperor and the queen mother don't talk about it, but they are also anxious, some old people don't want to hug their grandchildren.And of course the most reassuring one is Wei Lan. She knows that she and Huangfu Hanyang have never had children, and Huangfu Hanyang promised herself that she would not let other concubines become pregnant until she gave birth to a son-in-law, so it was delayed There is no emperor's heir, and she also knows that the officials of the Manchu Dynasty are talking nonsense in private, and she also told Huangfu Hanyang, but Huangfu Hanyang insisted, so she was helpless. Fortunately, she is pregnant now.

"That's great, Lan'er, we finally have a baby." Huangfu Hanyang said to Wei Lan a little excitedly.Wei Lan has had a bad appetite for the past few days, Huangfu Hanyang was still worried that she was ill, but he didn't expect the imperial doctor to find out that he was happy. He hadn't had a child for many years, so how could he not be in a hurry, but he didn't want to make Wei Lan sad.

Wei Lan was also excited: "Yes. Lan'er will protect our child." Wei Lan put her hands on her abdomen, and couldn't wait to feel the existence of the child.

"Don't worry, I've sent some people to guard you in secret, those women won't have a chance to attack you." Huangfu Hanyang looked at Wei Lan seriously, and said solemnly.

"That's right, the harem is a place of right and wrong, you really need to be more careful, Han'er has arranged it well." The queen mother came in from the outside and said.

"Mother's Queen." Seeing the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager, Huangfu Hanyang and Wei Lan hurriedly stood up and saluted.

The Queen Mother stepped forward to hold Wei Lan and said, "You are pregnant now, don't make such a big move, be careful of the child."

"That's right. Before the child was born, I exempted you from the gift." The Supreme Emperor was happy, but he had been in a depressed state during this time. The so-called misfortune came from his mouth, and he was talking about himself. Now his wife treats him indifferently, I don't give myself a good face. Although my daughter has entered the palace once, she avoids me. It is difficult to see her. My son doesn't know how to help me. He looks like he is watching a good show. better off.

"Lan'er thanked father and mother." Wei Lan was about to salute when she was supported again.

The Empress Dowager pulled Wei Lan and ignored the Supreme Emperor and Huangfu Hanyang, and explained some things that pregnant women should pay attention to: "For pregnant women, the most important thing is to pay attention to the first three months. The fetus is not stable in the first three months. Don't do strenuous exercise. Also, you have to be careful about what you eat, and you should never touch it... It is said that Keqing was raised very well at that time. Tomorrow Xuan Yaxin will come in, and she But if you know a lot, let her teach you better." This first child should be valued.

The next day, the queen mother announced that Yaxin, Keqing, Wawa and others had all entered the palace.

"Why are you in such a hurry for Xuan Yaxin to come in?" Yaxin looked at the queen mother with a smile and said.

The queen mother said bluntly: "Good girl, I got the news that the queen is pregnant. The Ai family saw that you raised Rong'er, Xi'er, and the baby so well, and saw that you took good care of Keqing when she was pregnant. I specially invite you to teach the Pope. The queen is like the first child. She has no experience and will always be at a loss. Although the Ai family is also a person who has given birth, but at that time it was taken care of by the mother, so I don’t know much about it. These, the Ai family will rest assured of you, so I will trouble my sister."

"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? It's my honor that you regard me as a sister and value me. Yaxin, Empress Empress, is going over now, and must teach Empress Empress some experience." She smiled mysteriously, and then said: "It's inconvenient for Qing and the baby to come with me, so Madam Lao will take care of her."

There was a vague look of gratitude in the Queen Mother's eyes, and she said, "Don't worry, you can go."

After Yaxin left, the queen mother looked at Keqing, embarrassed again, but fortunately the baby was here: "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law."

"Does the baby miss her mother-in-law?" The queen mother asked, taking the baby with her hand, but Ke Qing stood by and accompanied her silently.

"Think~" The baby's childish voice is soft and soft, and it makes people feel all troubles away.

The queen mother gently rubbed the doll's head and said softly: "The doll is so good, the cakes from my mother-in-law are delicious, let's see if you like it?" She twisted one and put it in the doll's mouth.

Ke Qing silently hesitated whether to speak or not, then remembered Ya Xin's words, took a deep breath, and said softly: "The baby's stomach is not very good these days, the doctor told me not to eat too much sweets, she is also a glutton , don’t let her eat too much.”

When the Queen Mother heard Ke Qing's voice, she looked at her in surprise, unable to react, she answered after a while: "Oh." words.

Ke Qing looked more and more guilty, thinking that since she had already taken the first step, why not say more: "Don't look at the doll who is obedient now, but she was so skinny yesterday, cut off my half-embroidered purse, and still I almost hurt myself, but I was fined, and I just settled down today."

"Children are always like this. They don't know what is good and what is bad. Just talk to her. Why punish her?" If you do this again, the knife is very dangerous."

Wa Wa nodded half-understood, but Ke Qing felt quite satisfied watching their grandparents get along with each other.
