Evening Shaohua in the Red House

In other words, Jia Lian was ecstatic when he learned that Sister Feng was pregnant. He urged his horse back to Rongfu, entered the gate, dismounted in front of the hall, and came to his courtyard first.

Just after entering the courtyard gate, I saw the grandmother Sun Nai holding the eldest sister, under a half-flowered and half-fruited peach tree, watching the butterflies flying around with the little maid. The eldest sister saw Jia Lian. He called Daddy and stretched out his hand to hug him.

Jia Lian went up to pick up the eldest sister, touched her hot little hands, and saw that she was still wearing a silver-red gauze jacket, so she said to the nurse: "It's hot today, why are you still wearing these thick clothes for my sister? Careful." The heat is hot, go back and change it."

The nurse hurriedly agreed, Jia Lian teased the eldest sister and said a few words, then handed it back to the nurse and went to Sister Feng's room.

When the girls saw it, they congratulated Jia Lian and hurriedly opened the Xiang curtain.

Jia Lian walked into the room and quietly did not hear Sister Feng's voice, but Ping'er was dozing off on the bamboo bed outside, and asked, "Where is grandma?"

Ping'er woke up startled, and replied, "Grandma is sleeping inside."

Jia Lian asked again, "What did the doctor say?"

Ping'er said with a smile: "The doctor said that the fetal image is very good, and it is easy to take care of it on weekdays. Just pay more attention to food."

After hearing this, Jia Lian nodded and asked, "How is grandma's appetite today? How much did you eat?"

Ping'er said: "I still vomit sour, I only ate a few mouthfuls of japonica rice porridge."

Jia Lian frowned when he heard the words, walked into the bedroom, and saw a sky-blue gauze curtain on the bed, a white agate plate on the stool in front of the bed, containing a plate of bayberries the size of pigeon eggs, and two bright red pomegranate flowers on the side .

Walking to the front of the kang, hanging up the gauze curtain, seeing Sister Feng sleeping inward, Jia Lian bent down and rubbed her face lightly. Sister Feng woke up with a start, turned around and asked, "Didn't you go to Uncle Lin's house?" So, how soon will you be back?"

Jia Lian said, "I rushed back after hearing Zhao'er's message." As he spoke, he stroked Sister Feng's belly lightly, and said happily, "I have a son too!"

Sister Feng gave him a sideways glance and said, "You know it's a son, what if it's a daughter?"

Jia Lian smiled and said: "I know in my heart that he must be a fat boy, but it doesn't matter if he is a daughter. We are young anyway, and if we give birth to four or five children, we will always have a son."

Although Sister Feng knew that he was coaxing her with sweet words, she was also happy in her heart, and spat and said, "I'm not a sow, who gave birth to you like this!"

While talking, she sat up slowly, and Jia Lian quickly helped her to sit on the soft bed, stuffed a pillow behind her waist, and said loudly: "Grandma is up, don't you still have time?"

Come in and serve. "

When Ping'er heard this, he hurriedly brought the maids in to serve her.Feng'er was holding a small tea tray of multicolored foreign lacquer, holding a blue and white powder-based lotus seed tureen, filled with half a bowl of Longjing tea, standing by the side, while three or four little maids outside the rest were holding washbasins, towels, target mirrors, The sips and other things were all standing in front of Sister Feng and serving them.

At this time, because Sister Feng was sitting on the low couch, the maid holding the basin came to her knees and knelt down, holding the washbasin high;

Ping'er personally took off the bracelet with Sister Feng. He took a large handkerchief and covered the skirt of Sister Feng's front.

Feng'er hurriedly fetched the pomegranate flowers from the white agate plate, and Jia Lian took them, and inserted them on both sides of Sister Feng's temples with her own hands, and said, "Sister Lin asked someone to pack up some bird's nests and bring them here, and I asked someone to cook a bowl of porridge." Come."

Sister Feng was surprised when she heard this, "I just had lunch, what are you doing with this now?"

Jia Lian said with a smile: "I heard from Ping'er that you haven't eaten much today. You are twin now, but you can't be careless. This bird's nest is the most nourishing yin and Qi. For our son, you should take a bite or two." Pointing to the bayberry on the agate plate, he said: "It's enough to eat two of these things. If you eat too much, you will easily get phlegm and get angry. Now your grandma is not as good as usual. You should be more attentive to the people who serve you."

Hearing this, Ping'er hurriedly asked the little maid to remove the plate of red bayberries.

Seeing this, Sister Feng burst out laughing, and she was very pleased.

Not long after, Feng'er really boiled a bowl of bird's nest porridge. Sister Feng was very happy, and her appetite didn't feel better. She ate half of the bowl.

Everyone couldn't help laughing, Ping'er smiled and said: "It's really news, our second master has also started to recite Buddha."

Jia Lian laughed and said, "What's the matter? As long as your grandma and children are safe and sound, don't talk about reciting Buddha's name, you can tell me to eat fast every day."

When Sister Feng heard this, her heart was sweet, and she said angrily, "Don't play tricks now, and talk about serious things. What is Uncle Lin asking you to go today?"

Jia Lian said, "Uncle Lin asked me to donate a job."

Sister Feng was overjoyed when she heard the words, and hurriedly said: "This is a good thing, it's just that it's appropriate to donate whatever is needed. Does Uncle Lin have any ideas?"

Jia Lian said: "Uncle Lin said that I still have some talent in accounting, and told me to go to the household department. Go up slowly."

Sister Feng nodded and said, "That's good, anyway, the master is here too.

The Ministry of Household Affairs can take care of it to some extent. "

Jia Lian patted her hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I used to be ignorant and didn't know how to make progress. Now for you and the child, I will stand up no matter what."

Sister Feng was very happy when she heard the words. After this incident, the relationship between the husband and wife is better than usual.

On the same day, Jia Lian went to look for Jia She, and told about donating an official. When Jia She heard that his son was willing to make progress, he liked it in his heart. Although he didn't care about things, after all, he was a serious successor of the Rongguo Mansion, and he still had some connections. , with the help of the Wang family, they spent a few hundred taels of silver and easily found a job in the household department, and they took up the post at a certain date.

After that, except for the days when Jia Lian was on duty, Jia Lian no longer went out to socialize. She stayed by Sister Feng's side almost every step of the way.

Zhanyan Duanyang is approaching, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Li Wan doesn't want to go out except in the morning and evening. He just reads at home. This day, he came back from Mrs. Wang's room and was sweating again, so he ordered people to fetch water to freshen up , changed into a lotus-colored gauze shirt, a white gauze skirt, and let her hair loose again. Her black hair was only tied with a jasper lotus hairpin.

Biyue made iced custard with milk again, and Li Wan ate a bowl, feeling better, and said to Suyun and the others with a smile: "It's much more refreshing now, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, you also Go eat some."

Su Yun smiled and went.

Just as he was speaking, he heard the girl say that Brother Lan was back. As soon as he finished speaking, Jia Lan lifted the curtain and came in, shouting: "It's terrible, it's so hot!"

Seeing that his forehead was covered with sweat, Li Wan asked someone to fetch water to wash him up. While wiping his sweat with a handkerchief, Li Wan scolded, "You should be more careful under the sun, what can you do if you get heatstroke?"

Jia Lan wiped off his sweat and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Mom, I'm strong, so it's okay."

Li Wan gave him a sideways look, and was worried after all, so he asked the woman in charge of the kitchen to boil fragrant fennel to drink.

At this time, the little girl had brought warm water, and everyone was serving Jia Lan to comb her hair and wash her face. Suyun Biyue came over to wipe Jia Lan's forehead and tie a crown, tied her hair in two buns, put on a hundred-year-old shirt, and took it off. Go to the soap boots and change into soft-soled silk shoes.

At this time, the fenugreek drink was ready, and Jia Lan drank it with a bitter face, sticking out her tongue and saying, "It's too bad." He hurriedly took a big mouthful of tea to rinse his mouth, and then asked if there was anything to eat.

Bi Yue pursed her lips and smiled, "I made ice bowls today, and there are still some under the kitchen, do you want to try it?"

Jia Lan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile, "I'm thinking of eating this, sister, hurry up and fill a bowl with me."

Biyue agrees

With a sound, Li Wan was about to pick it up, but Li Wan hurriedly stopped and said, "Lunch is about to start, what are you going to eat now?"

Jia Lan was so hot that she took Li Wan's hand and begged, "Good mother, just let me eat a little bit, never eat more, just taste it."

Li Wan was angry and funny, poked his forehead, and said angrily: "You usually eat a lot, but you still look like a gluttonous cat."

In the end he couldn't resist him, so he asked the little maid to bring up an ice bowl, which was filled in a sky-blue porcelain bowl, and the snow-white crisp cheese was sprinkled with candied cherries, the red and white contrasted, it was really beautiful.

Jia Lan suddenly felt his index finger twitch, and he ate half a bowl in a short while. Li Wan was afraid that he would hurt his stomach, so he refused to let him eat.

Li Wan ate a small piece of watermelon, and Jia Lan only ate a small bunch of grapes, and peeled two lychees to eat. Li Wan said to Suyun, "The weather is hot now, and these things are not durable. You can take them." Go divide it."

Suyun thanked her, and Biyue ate some melons and lychees, and gave the rest to the girls and women. .

Not long after lunch was ready, a few women came in with food boxes, Suyun took it and put it on, a bowl of fermented duck, a bowl of steamed crucian carp, a plate of stewed pigeon eggs with ham, a plate of spiced eggplant, and a plate of spiced Winter vegetables mixed with dried shrimps, a bowl of sour bamboo shoots and chicken skin soup, a large bowl of Japonica rice, and a bowl of pearl rice porridge cooked with lily, lotus seeds, lentils, barley kernels, and Gorgon, as well as Poria cocos cake, hawthorn cake, pine nut cake and various There are five or six dishes of fine tea and food on a table.

Biyue set the bowls and chopsticks again, the mother and son sat down and ate casually for a while, the meal was finished in silence, the little maid rinsed her mouth and served some water.

Li Wan straightened his face, and said to Suyun Biyue: "There is a little girl serving here, you don't have to be busy, go down and eat."

Suyun agreed, and poured tea for the two of them, then watched the women take the leftovers, and told Wutong to wait for her call, and the two went to eat by themselves.

After taking a sip of tea, Li Wan suddenly remembered something, and said to Jia Lan: "Your second aunt's day is coming soon, Mr. Feng's family is definitely coming, so don't go out, at least help greet the guests." .”

Jia Lan nodded when she heard the words, and said with a smile: "Mom, when you talk about this second uncle, I have heard some news outside in the past two days." At a glance, Wutong understood, and hurriedly led the little maids down.

Seeing this, Li Wan couldn't help being a little curious, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, so weird."

At this time there was no one in the room, Jia Lanfang whispered

Said: "Mom, I know that something big happened on the Iron Net Mountain before. King Ningjun assassinated the Holy Majesty. Fortunately, Uncle Feng gave his life to save him, and the danger was saved."

Li Wan was taken aback when he heard the words, and said, "Where did you hear such secret news?"

Jia Lan smiled when she heard this, and said: "Although Mr. has never been an official, he has many contacts in the court. Whenever there is any movement in the court, Mr. will talk to me and teach me how to behave. Besides, this matter is also very important. It's not very secretive. All the great families in Beijing know about it, but there is no one in our family, so we are kept in the dark. Now that the king of Ningjun and others have been taken down, they will be punished soon. The Feng family Uncle has done a great job in rescuing him this time, so rewards are naturally indispensable, and the grade is also expected to be mentioned."

After hearing this, Li Wan suddenly thought of Princess Yongchang's peach blossom banquet last month, thought about the obscure description of Iron Net Mountain in the original book, and related to Emperor Qingde's trip to the West Mountain, he vaguely guessed some inside information, and was suddenly startled. Not daring to think about it any further, he forced himself to calm down and said solemnly: "This matter is related to the private affairs of the royal family, let's just know it, don't talk about it outside."

Jia Lan nodded and said, "Yes, I only told Mom, not even the master and wife."

The people in the capital kept secret about Emperor Qingde's assassination, and they didn't dare to discuss it at all. Today, Emperor Qingde holds the power of the government, which is not what it used to be.

The king of Ningjun seized the title and was imprisoned in the mansion, but Fuji's party members were quickly uprooted, beheaded and exiled.

Although the Taishanghuang felt sorry for his eldest grandson, treason was a capital crime. King Ningjun was able to save his life because Emperor Qingde was lenient, and the Taishanghuang couldn't say anything else.

What's more, the Supreme Emperor's health has been deteriorating in the past few years, and he no longer has much energy to intervene in the government affairs. Emperor Qingde is young and strong, and he is decisive in dealing with affairs. Put your beaks together, all praise the benevolence and righteousness of the sage.

The Jia family had no males in the court, and the female relatives were trapped in the back house. Li Wan only learned the truth from Jia Lan, and the others didn't even know it. Hearing the news, he felt lucky in his heart, fortunately Rong Mansion withdrew from the deposed prince's boat in time, otherwise he would not have escaped this time.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of welcoming the Spring Festival.

All the people in Jia's house were waiting in Jiamu's room early in the morning. It didn't take long for Jia Lian and Baoyu to avoid Mrs. Feng's arrival.

Jia's mother told Lin Zhixiao's family and Lai's family to say, "you two go out to pick them up." Lin Zhixiao's family agreed.

, and hurried to pick it up.Seeing this, Mrs. Xing quickly laughed and said, "Why don't you ask the girls to go and greet them too?"

When Jia Mu heard the words, she nodded and said, "It is also possible."

Mrs. Wang then ordered Sister Li Wanfeng: "You guys go too, just bring your younger sisters to meet you at the second gate."

Sister Li Wanfeng agreed, and led Tanchun Xichun and a large group of women and daughters-in-law to wait at the second gate. After a while, they saw a group of colorful people coming in around a well-dressed and kind-looking lady.

Li Wan knew that this was Mrs. Feng, so he hurriedly went up to meet with Sister Feng and led them to Jia Mu's room.

When everyone met, the official matchmaker said some auspicious words according to the rules, so Jia Mu ordered Yingchun to come out, but she saw that Yingchun was wearing a begonia red woven gold shirt, and apricot yellow strands of gold thread gauze skirt, wearing A pair of red gold silk inlaid bead jewelry, a pair of pearl lantern pendants gently swinging around the ears, making her look more gentle and charming, more brilliant than spring flowers.

Madam Feng was very satisfied, and ordered someone to present the betrothal gift, which consisted of forty gold-painted scarlet boxes, filled with rulers of various colors, gold beads jewelry, silk and satin, etc., it was really dazzling.

Seeing that the Feng family attached great importance to Yingchun, Jia Mu and others felt more and more satisfied.

Mrs. Feng smiled and said: "According to today's appointment, our boy should come here in person, but before the emperor ordered an urgent errand, he is not in Beijing for a few days, so I can only wrong the girl."

The two families have communicated with each other before, and Jiamu and Mrs. Wang have already known the inside story, so they are busy talking without any hindrance.

The lady in charge of the Feng family who followed took another red sandalwood box and handed it to Madam Feng. Madam Feng then opened the box. Inside was a pair of crystal-clear jasper bracelets carved with lotus patterns on two pedicles wrapped in a small brocade bundle. Madam smiled and said: "This pair of bracelets was given by the old lady when I passed the door. I will give it to you today."

Saying so, he personally took off the emerald-encrusted gold bracelets on her wrists for Yingchun, and replaced them with her own pair, saying: "May you also be like our old lady."

Yingchun saluted with a blushing face, and Jia's mother also gave the several colors of needlework made by Yingchun and various gifts in return.

So far, the marriage between the two families has been finally settled. Mother Jia and Mrs. Feng have discussed it, and they will not be hired until the end of the year, and they will only get married in the spring of next year.

All the sisters surrounded Yingchun and went back to the room, expressing their congratulations one after another. While talking and laughing, they suddenly saw Siqi holding a brocade box and said to Yingchun with a smile: "This is just sent by my uncle, and it is said to be an apology for the girl." .”

Everyone laughed when they heard the words, and said: "Our uncle really cares about my sister, lest she will get angry, so I sent someone to give you a gift.

"

Xiangyun was curious, so he quickly pushed Yingchun, and said with a smile, "Open it quickly and let's see what kind of treasure it is."

Yingchun blushed and refused, Xiangyun wanted to tickle her, and Yingchun hid behind Daiyu.

Daiyu hurriedly stretched out her hand to block Xiangyun, and said with a smile: "Forget it, this is the treasure given by the second brother-in-law, and it is reasonable for the second sister not to be willing to show it to others."

Tanchun Baochai also persuaded with a smile, Xiangyun stopped his hand, and said with a smile: "Forget it, I'll be more interesting today, or I'm afraid I won't even be allowed to drink if I drive my sister out tomorrow."

Yingchun blushed even more when she heard the words. Baochai pursed her lips and smiled when she saw this, and said: "It's getting late, the second sister has been tired for half a day, and it's time to rest. Let's go back first." Wink.

Everyone understood and said goodbye one after another.

After the sisters left, Siqi and others also retreated with a smile. Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Yingchun regained his composure and opened the box with a blushing face.

After seeing the contents of the box, Yingchun was stunned. It turned out that it was not jewelry, but a pouch made of goose yellow soft satin, with jasmine flowers embroidered on the corner. Old, with some old blood stains on the bottom that couldn't be washed clean.

Yingchun recognized at a glance that it was the purse she lost when she was saving people in the peach blossom forest in Cuiwei Mountain Villa. She thought it had fallen on the mountain, but unexpectedly, it was picked up by someone.

At this moment, she has come to understand that her future husband is the boy from that day.

Yingchun recalled all kinds of things, and began to believe that fate dictated it, and the marriage was destined.
