Evening Shaohua in the Red House

Woke up early the next morning, fortunately the weather was clear and clear. Li Wan and the others had just finished breakfast when they saw Yan Hui and Jiang Yingxue coming to bid farewell, saying: "The old lady in the house has already sent someone to remind me, I am thinking of Yingxue My health is almost better, so I should go back."

It turned out that the Seventh Prince was worried about his son, so he sent someone to pick up the Seventh Concubine and her son yesterday afternoon. Because Jiang Yingxue had been feeling a little upset for the past two days and hadn't fully recovered, Yan Hui stayed for an extra day.

Li Wan was quite reluctant, took Yan Hui's hand, and said: "I don't know when we will see you again after this farewell, sister, take care."

Although her status as a widow has saved her a lot of trouble, it has also brought a lot of inconvenience. If she is an ordinary person, she can usually post a post to invite Yan Hui to have a dinner at home, or visit her at home, but it is because of the festival Due to her status, she can't even socialize, let alone go out as a guest, so she can only be confined in the back house for many years, and finally has a good friend who can talk to her, but it is not easy to even meet her.

Yan Hui suddenly laughed when she heard the words, and looked around, and saw that the girls and servants were standing far away, so she pulled her skirt and whispered in her ear: "My sister forgot that you have a hot spring village in Xishan now, that's This is a good place to rest and recuperate, and it was bestowed by the concubine. I can't just live there once a year? My sister can find a reason to live there for a few days in the future. I hope your old lady will not refuse.

Coincidentally, our family also has a small village in Xishan. When I have free time, I will bring Yingxue to live there for a while, so we can get together again. "

Li Wan's eyes lit up when she heard this, why didn't she think of this!

The winter in the north is cold, and the hot spring village is suitable for Jia Mu to recuperate, and the scenery is also good. She will invite Jia Mu to come and live for a few days.She can also take this opportunity to take Daiyu Yingchun and the sisters out to relax and breathe.

Thinking of this, Li Wan's mood suddenly improved a lot. In the previous life, he was used to being free and easy, but in this world, he has been bound for many years in the back house and cannot be free. The house is facing the square sky all day long. It's been a long time. I will get sick from boredom.

On the other end, Jiang Yingxue was also saying goodbye to Daiyu and the others. She had been blaming herself for the betrayal of her maid these few days and almost caused the death of her son Tuhui. I was sleepy all day, and I was too lazy to go out. I stayed in the house for two days, and only recovered some energy today.

Daiyu looked carefully at Jiang Yingxue

Seeing that her complexion was much ruddy, and her eyes had returned to the previous look, she felt relieved, and said: "I will order the girl to find out those ancient books that my sister mentioned earlier, and I will send someone to send them to you when the time comes." Go to the house."

Jiang Yingxue was very happy when she heard the words, she took Daiyu's hand and said with a smile, "Thank you, sister, I will send it back when I finish copying it." After that, she smiled at the three of Tanchun and said, "Come to my house to play tomorrow when you are free. At that time, I posted a message to my younger sisters, let's enjoy wine and flowers together, and write poems by the stove, you must appreciate it."

The three Tanchun sisters agreed. According to the rules of the day, a girl who has not left the cabinet without an elder is not allowed to go out as a guest. However, there is no need for a gathering among close friends in the boudoir. All you need to do is to post an invitation.

The sisters seldom go out except for occasional visits to Wang's and Shi's houses. Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng never take them with them when they go to other houses for banquets. I am very happy to have such an opportunity to go out and meet friends.

Li Wan was talking to Yan Hui, and was very happy to hear the words, raised his head and smiled and said: "You younger sisters are shy and don't go out much on weekdays, so I have to trouble Yingxue to take care of you when the time comes."

These sisters in the family are all very good. Since she knows the fate of these sisters, she hopes to help them leave before the Jia family falls.

Yingchun is already 12 years old this year, and it stands to reason that she can already see other people, but the sisters never go out to socialize, except for the Wang family and historians who are closer, there are not many Madam Gaoming who have seen them. The two families of Ning and Ning are connected with each other, so in the eyes of outsiders, they are naturally on the same line, and they don't know their sisters' character, so where would they come to see each other.

Now that I know Jiang Yingxue, I will naturally meet a lot of boudoir daughters and make some friends when I go to banquets and parties in the future. These are my contacts in the future, and the Yingchun sisters are all very outstanding characters. Those girls will change after they meet. , I will inevitably talk to my mother when I go back. If there is a son of the right age at home, he will naturally come to see him if he thinks it is appropriate.

Jiang Yingxue didn't know that Li Wan had turned all these thoughts away in that instant, and only responded with a smile: "Don't worry, Auntie, I will take good care of my younger sisters when the time comes."

Yan Hui was quick-witted, so she guessed a bit when she heard the words, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll be watching when the time comes, and I won't let your girls be bullied."

In the past few years, she has often corresponded with Li Wan, and occasionally heard her talking about some of the family members.

Sister, before coming to the Muni Court this time, I also told her the reason for bringing their sisters out, and I naturally understood Li Wan's intentions in my heart, and I couldn't help but sigh that Yingchun and the others met a good sister-in-law, even the sisters might not be happy for her. They are so worried.

While talking, a woman came back and said, "Grandma, the luggage and vehicles are all packed, and we can start our journey."

Yan Hui heard the words and agreed, "Understood, come here."

After talking to Li Wan for a few words, and asking Daiyu to come and play often, he boarded the car with Jiang Yingxue and returned home. Li Wan took Daiyu and others to the mountain gate to return.

Afterwards, everyone returned to the room and checked their luggage again. Li Wan's things had been packed last night, and there were six or seven boxes.

It was Danju and Suyun who pressed and pressed the things, tried their best to pack them as full as possible without leaving any gaps, and then compressed the thirteen boxes into six boxes.

Fortunately, the boxes and cages that the Seventh Princess sent yesterday were huge. Silk and satin and those leathers were packed into four big boxes. The red sandalwood and gold-painted stationery containing jewelry, ancient calligraphy and painting books, and small and precious antiques were all stuffed into what Li Wan brought. In the clothes box, the rest of the items were placed in the same box as the decorations, so that only six boxes were brought back. There were not too many things missing, but it seemed less on the surface, so it was not so noticeable.

Fortunately, they brought few people this time, only ten servant girls and ten maids in total. When the Seventh Princess delivered things yesterday, there were only Danju and Suyun in the room, and those wives and daughters-in-law were only in the room. Listening to the call from outside, at that time there were people from the palace clearing the way in front of them, they were too scared to look up, and they didn't know how much the specific reward would be.

And those girls happened to go out to admire the plum blossoms with the Yingchun sisters. When they came back, Danju and Suyun had almost packed up their things, leaving only some gauze silk and palace flowers for food, so they just I thought that the Seventh Princess only rewarded some common things such as silk decorations and hairpin jewelry, and didn't know anything else.

It's not that Li Wan is stingy, but that the seventh concubine's thank you gifts are too generous, plus those sent by Mrs. Zhou, there are hundreds of bolts of silk and satin alone, and the box of jewels is even more valuable. An authentic calligraphy and painting by a famous artist, it is really eye-catching to bring these things back. The maids and women in the Rongguo Mansion have always been jealous, and they may not know what will be passed on by then.

Li Wan had always been cautious, so naturally he acted as low-key as possible.

Not long after, Jia Lian and Zhou Rui's family brought people to pick them up. They had already packed up and packed their things and set off for home.

Men are not allowed to enter the Muni courtyard, so Jia

Lian just waited outside the mountain gate with people, while Zhou Rui's family watched people pack their luggage. Seeing that Li Wan had many more boxes, he couldn't help being a little puzzled, and said with a smile, "Grandma, why are there so many boxes here?"

Li Wan had already responded, and said with a smile: "When I offered incense that day, I ran into a pair of mother and son who had been rescued a few years ago. , by chance, I did a little favor for the crown prince, so the Seventh Princess also rewarded me with something."

Zhou Rui's family also remembered the pair of mother and son. After hearing this, they suddenly realized, and then heard that the Seventh Concubine also had a reward, and couldn't help being a little surprised. Those boxes were just some silk and satin decorations, so they didn't care.

When everyone returned to the mansion, they went to greet Jia Mu before they could wash up. Jia Mu was so happy that she hurriedly called out and took Daiyu to sit beside her. , If I knew it earlier, I wouldn’t let you go out, but you’ve been trapped on the mountain for a few days.”

Daiyu hurriedly laughed and said, "Grandmother don't have to worry, everything on the mountain is complete, and she hasn't suffered any grievances."

It happened that Mrs. Wang was also in the room of Jiamu, and asked about the situation in Muni's courtyard these days.

Everyone was busy talking, Mrs. Wang nodded after listening, and said: "It's good that nothing happened. The heavy snowstorm a few days ago, you were trapped on the mountain and couldn't come down. The old lady and I were worried, lest something happen."

Li Wan said with a smile: "Madam, don't worry, the Jiang family's third grandma and the seventh concubine were all on the mountain at that time, there were so many maids and guards, no one dared to make trouble."

Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang were very surprised when they heard the words, and hurriedly said, "The Seventh Princess is here too? What's going on here?"

Li Wan then explained the whole story of the matter, and briefly talked about the matter of saving Tu Hui, avoiding the most important and ignoring the less important, and finally mentioned the matter of Wenquan Zhuangzi, saying: "It was a matter of little effort, but the Seventh Princess was charitable and rewarded a lot. Things, I thought about it and couldn't make any more wishes, so I just said that the dowry money in these years has never been used, and I want to buy a small village with hot springs, one is to buy a family business for Lan'er, and the other is to be filial Old ladies and wives."

After hearing this, Jia Mu nodded and said, "You did a great job. The seventh concubine's gift of thanks is already very generous. We are not the kind of people with shallow eyesights. We can't be greedy and have the reputation of asking for rewards."

In the past two years, the seventh prince has become more and more valued by the sage, and he has become friends with several other princes. In the future, no matter who ascends the throne, he, the brother

It won't be too bad, and their family can't offend even if they can't get along well.

Moreover, Jia's mother is old and refined, and she has a very clear understanding of the world. After this incident, the two families are somewhat in love. If they encounter any difficulties in the future, the Seventh Princess will take care of them to some extent.

Mrs. Wang was a little displeased at first, thinking that such a great opportunity could happen to help Yuan Chun in the palace, Li Wan actually used it to buy a Zhuangzi, it was a waste, but then she thought that Yuan Chun is now in the Queen's Palace, although the seventh concubine is The royal daughter-in-law, but she is only a married woman, and she can't interfere with the affairs of the palace, so she didn't say anything.

Li Wan told about the Zhou family again, and Jia's mother was very happy. She nodded and said, "As the saying goes, there must be celebrations in a family of good deeds. This is also your fate."

Li Wan said with a smile: "Their family is sincere, and the leathers they sent are all top-quality, which is quite rare, and the princess also rewarded a lot of good satin. The old lady and the wife will see what they like later."

After that, he ordered people to carry the things.

Everyone's luggage had been sent back to their courtyards earlier, Danju hurriedly took a few women to bring a few boxes of clothing, leather and antique decorations for Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang to have a look at.

Seeing this, Jia's mother sighed: "We don't lack these things in our daily life. Your widow is unemployed, so you finally got something. Keep it for Lan'er, and what will you do for us?"

Mrs. Wang has a very rich body, so she didn't take these things to heart, and said: "What the old lady said is that you got this, you can keep it yourself."

Li Wan laughed and said, "Lan'er and I have kept a lot together. This is a little bit of filial piety on my part. The old lady and the lady can choose as many as they like, and it's considered my heart."

Daiyu and the other sisters also laughed and said: "Sister-in-law also gave us some, it's her own wish, old ladies and wives can choose differently."

Jia Mu couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, and said, "Well, if that's the case, let me have a look."

Li Wan ordered the girl to take out the things. Jia Mu looked at them briefly, then picked out a wax oil frozen stone tripod, a jade carving ornament, two pieces of gold-woven satin and a wolf skin, and said with a smile: "There is this Just a few things, the leather is good, just for the girls to make me a mattress."

Then Mrs. Wang also chose a double-sided kang screen embroidered with Suzhou embroidery, two pieces of ermine, two bolts of elegant silk and a piece of gauze, and said with a smile, "That's enough, you can put away the rest."

Li Wan agreed and said with a smile: "Since the old lady and the lady helped me save things, I really put them away. It's not because I'm stingy."

Jia Mu said with a smile: "Don't worry, who said you are stingy tomorrow, I will let you go."

People spit on him. "

Everyone who said it laughed.

After another conversation, Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang saw that they were tired and knew that they had worked hard on the road, so they asked them to go back to their rooms to rest.

When Li Wan returned to the courtyard, he picked out two more bolts of satin and two squirrel skins, and ordered someone to send them to Mrs. Xing.

In addition, I ordered a big red doro, a red golden satin and a western bicycle boat to Baoyu's room, and two other silks, two lenos and two ermines to Fengjie's room. go.

Danju also gave Yuanyang, Ping'er and others the ruler head and palace flowers that had been cut earlier.

Li Wan rested for half a day, and went to visit Sister Feng who was sick after noon.

Sister Feng half leaned on the bed, wearing only a homely jacket on her body, with stone blue embroidered flowers around her head and mopping her forehead, ordered Ping'er to pour tea, and said with a smile: "It's hard for you to remember me when you go out, and then send someone to bring something."

Li Wan sighed, "I didn't expect you to fall ill after we've only been out for a few days."

Sister Feng said with a smile: "People eat whole grains, so there is no way to say about getting sick."

Li Wan glanced at her and saw that her complexion was sallow, her lips were white and bloodless, so she knew that she was seriously ill, and she couldn't help sighing: "According to me, you work too hard every day, how can you do this kind of thing?" After you have finished, you have just given birth to a child, and it is even more important to take care of it."

How can Sister Feng be willing to give up the power at hand, and she doesn't think so, but she also knows that she has good intentions, so she just agrees.

When Li Wan saw this, he knew that Sister Feng didn't listen. It's just that she is an outsider. It's just a few reminders. It's not easy to say, so he glanced around and said, "I haven't seen our eldest sister for a long time. What's the matter now?" Have you ever slept?"

Speaking of her daughter, Sister Feng, she also had a gentle face, and said with a smile: "I just carried her down to nurse. The eldest sister is changing every day now. She has gained weight and is becoming more and more intelligent. I will ask the nanny to carry her here for you to see."

After giving birth to a daughter, Sister Feng was a little disappointed, but after all, as a first-time mother, she also loved her eldest sister very much.

Ping'er smiled and went out to give orders, and after a while, the nanny came over with her eldest sister who was wrapped in a red brocade.

Li Wan took a closer look and found that she hadn't seen her for a long time. The facial features of the elder sister had opened up a lot, she looked like Sister Feng, but her eyebrows and eyes were more delicate, and said with a smile: "Our eldest sister was born well, and she must be a beauty when she grows up. Embryo."

After finishing speaking, he gave a set of small gold ornaments to the eldest sister, and said with a smile: "The elder sister was a hundred days ago, but I happened to be away. This was ordered to be beaten earlier. It is not a good thing. Don't be too rough. Give it to the eldest sister." General

Just wear it. "

Sister Feng saw that the gold ornaments were all made of red gold and silk, including longevity locks, anklets, bracelets, etc. The whole set was only two or two heavy. "With your good words, I will ask you, my aunt, to teach her to read more in the future."

Li Wan smiled and agreed. Seeing that Sister Feng hadn't regained her spirits and hadn't sat down for a long time, she said a few words and went back.

The next day, the seventh concubine ordered someone to bring the house deed of Tangquan Zhuangzi. It turned out that after the seventh concubine returned to the mansion, she told the seventh prince the whole story and the reason for this incident, and also told Li Wan's request, and the seventh prince would not refuse. , Immediately ordered someone to transfer a hot spring village in Xishan to Li Wan's name, and only received a symbolic 1000 taels of silver.

This Zhuangzi is at the foot of Tiewang Mountain, with an area of ​​about 1000 acres. There are two hot springs, one large and one small, and a three-entry house. Let alone 1 taels, there is no place to buy it even [-] taels of silver. go.

Li Wan sighed inwardly, he was indeed a son of the royal family, and he had done extraordinary things. Knowing that the Seventh Prince wanted to repay his kindness with this, so as not to ask for a favor in the future, he did not pretentiously refuse, thanked the envoy for coming, and readily accepted it.

Everyone in Jia's mansion was quite envious, but afterward the Seventh Concubine didn't move, never summoned Li Wan, and saw Li Wan's indifferent, discussed in private for a while and then threw it away.

One day, Li Wan and Daiyu sisters were talking to Mrs. Wang in Mrs. Wang's room. Suddenly, a girl came and said: "Mrs. Xue's family has brought her brothers and sisters to Beijing. They have already arrived at the gate."

Mrs. Wang was overjoyed, she hurriedly asked people to open the side door to meet her, then she hurriedly tidied up and brought everyone to the second door to meet her.

Li Wan was also a little curious, tightened the cloak on his body, raised his eyes to look at the hanging flower door, and after a while, he saw a group of maids and women surrounded by a kind-looking middle-aged beautiful woman and a very The beautiful girl came in, knowing that this was Aunt Xue's mother and daughter.

Mrs. Wang hurried forward to take Aunt Xue and others in.Needless to say, the sisters have been separated for many years, and when they meet each other, they are full of sorrow and joy.

Baochai went up to meet Mrs. Wang, and also met with Li Wan and Daiyu sisters.

When Li Wan saw Baochai for the first time, he couldn't help scrutinizing him secretly. As expected, his muscles and bones were smooth and graceful, his manners were elegant, his lips were red without spots, his eyebrows were green without draw, his face was like a silver basin, his eyes were like apricots, and he wore goose yellow satin embroidered around him. She wears a peony slanted lapel skirt, a multicolored gold embroidered cotton skirt, and a red feather gauze cloak on the outside. A heart-stirring bun is tied on her head, and a green phoenix hairpin inlaid with red gold silk and emeralds is on her hairpin. Jasper Ginkgo Leaf Earrings

Reflecting each other, it is elegant yet delicate, just like a peony in bud.

Take a second look at Daiyu beside her. She has a light gold and peach red two-colored double-breasted lapel, a cinnabar-colored jacket with a slanted collar, a fox fur cloak with apricot red trim and pomegranate red flower pattern, the same color Guanyin pocket, and a peach red floral pattern. The pleated skirt is delicate and delicate, like a slim lotus in water.

Li Wan admired secretly in his heart, as expected of Sister Bao, who was as famous as Sister Lin, she was indeed beautiful.

In her previous life, she saw a lot of comments on the Internet. There were those who favored and deprecated hairpins, and those who liked hairpins and hated black hairpins. The dispute between hairpins and Daisies has never stopped, but Li Wan felt that the two were indistinguishable. One is the dignified and prudent high-ranking scholar in the mountains, and the two are good at winning games, and it is difficult to distinguish between them.

The author has something to say: the two updates are combined into one, the number of words is slightly less, and there will be more tomorrow.

I don’t know if it’s because I often stay up late during this time, and recently lost my hair like crazy, I feel like my head is going bald QAQ
