The Lady of the Red Chamber
Chapter 38
Tanchun supported his head with one hand, and held a corner of the book with the other, and was lazily leaning on the pit table, flipping through the poetry collection in his hand.Unexpectedly, the waiter suddenly heard that Jin Chuan'er from his wife's room had come.
Tanchun naturally knew that Mrs. Wang wanted to ask her ancestor for a place in Yuxiu Academy, but at the same time she also clearly knew that Mrs. Wang had no good intentions.
Hearing that Jin Chuan'er was here at this time, he knew that calling her this time must have something to do with the quota.Calling in the servant book to wash his face and make up in a hurry, he followed Jin Chuan'er to the East Courtyard where Mrs. Wang lives now.
Jin Chuan'er knew that Mrs. Wang still paid more attention to Tanchun at present, and she also wanted to sell well in front of Tanchun so that she could get some convenience in the future, so she walked beside Tanchun and whispered, "Third Miss, the second wife's mood is not that important today." Good. Girl, you should be more careful when you turn around."
When Tanchun heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately said, "But this quota..."
Jin Chuan'er nodded, and pointed in the direction of Rongxi Hall: "The second girl wants to go over there."
Most of all, he knew that Mrs. Xing was going to fight Mrs. Wang to the death this time before she would give up, but after she really found out, Tanchun still felt a sense of desolation in her heart.
In the past, it was fine. The sisters all read and read together, and there was no distinction between them.But now the second and fourth sisters are all going to Yuxiu Academy, and they are instantly inferior to her.Tanchun has always been high-spirited, so how can he swallow this breath?
What's more, even Baoyu has to go to the Imperial College to study now.Not to mention Baochai, Daiyu and Xiangyun, leaving her alone at home is even more lonely and boring.
Jin Chuan'er looked at Tanchun's face and knew that she was not hesitant.Looking around, he said again: "But you don't have to worry, girl. The second wife has already planned to go to Uncle Xin's house, please ask uncle to come forward to share a place. At that time, the girl can still study with the second and fourth girls."
It can be said that Tanchun has experienced ups and downs.Now after hearing this, I know that this matter is likely to be stable, and the remaining [-]% variable depends on my performance later.Then he breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you sister for reminding me."
Jin Chuan'er smiled: "Miss San, you're being polite. This is what we servants are supposed to do. Why should we say thank you?"
When the two arrived at the east courtyard, Yu Chuan'er, who was guarding the door, saw Tan Chun, blessed her body and smiled, "The third girl is here."
As he spoke, he opened the curtain and waited for Tanchun to enter.
Mrs. Wang calmed down under the persuasion of Zhou Rui's family.Hearing Yu Chuan'er's voice at this moment, he opened his eyes to look at Tan Chun, and patted the empty seat beside him: "Come on, girl Tan, sit next to me."
Tanchun stepped forward, not daring to sit all the way up, his buttocks barely touching the edge of the pit, his back straightened, still confident and radiant, without any trace of distress from just now: "Ma'am."
Mrs. Wang looked at Tanchun carefully.With handsome eyes and brows, looking forward and looking forward, she has a good appearance that makes people forget the vulgarity. She nodded with satisfaction: "My son is getting more and more handsome. In my opinion, this girl from Manfu She doesn't look as good as the third girl of our family."
Zhou Rui's family stood aside and said with a smile: "That's not true. How about the wife's feng shui to support people?"
Tanchun smiled, and said without shame: "My wife is making fun of me again. In terms of tolerance, I can't compare to the big sister. If the big sister is Haoyue, then I am just an insignificant girl next to my sister. The firefly, how can it bear the words of the most outstanding girl in the mansion."
Mrs. Wang always loves others to praise Yuanchun the most.Tan Chun's words immediately coaxed her into ecstasy, pointed to Tan Chun's smile and said to Zhou Rui's family: "Look, I can't blame people for saying that Tan girl is very thoughtful. Everyone says that Feng girl is clever. In my opinion, our family The three girls are not inferior at all."
Zhou Rui's family followed up with a few words, nothing more than flattering Mrs. Wang for her kindness, which is why Tanchun can be raised so well.
After talking with Zhou Rui's family for a while, Mrs. Wang turned her head to look at Tanchun again, and said with a smile: "Today, I will go to the old lady to ask for a place in Yuxiu Academy for you. Unexpectedly, girl Feng would not help, but instead Let the eldest wife grab it for the second girl."
Tanchun's description remained unchanged, and he lowered his eyes and replied calmly: "My wife has taken so much trouble for me, there is nothing I am more grateful to my wife than this. In this way, I can only say that my daughter did not have this life, and I can't blame others."
Mrs. Wang was very satisfied with Tanchun's answer: she just likes Tanchun's knowledge of current affairs.Since he is a concubine, he should recognize his own fate.Those who are not in fate should not be delusional.To avoid any unnecessary thoughts, to compete with her Yuanchun Baoyu for the future.
But the scheming Mrs. Wang naturally wouldn't put these thoughts on her face, but picked up a letter from the table and said with a smile: "But you don't have to be too disappointed. Since the second girl and the fourth girl are all going, you can't go Doesn't it seem that I have no second wife. I have already told your uncle in the letter that I will give you a place in the palace. The niece of the second-rank official, I am not afraid that you will be looked down upon."
Tanchun raised his head in an instant, pretending to look at Mrs. Wang in disbelief, his excitement was beyond words, and immediately stood up and bowed to Mrs. Wang: "Madam has planned this for me so far, I really don't know how to thank Madam Wang .Only by working hard for my wife, can I thank my wife for nurturing me for so many years."
Mrs. Wang couldn't help laughing, she waved her hand, and signaled Tanchun to sit down: "You are my daughter, and you were raised by my side, how can I not bother to plan for you? There are many schools in Yuxiu Academy. It's a noble family, and the princesses of the princes are all going to study there. Your sister Bao has already served as the entrance attendant of Princess Rouping, and Miss Lin and Second Miss are getting closer to Princess Huining. Both Sisters, of course we played together, and there is no such thing as supporting or not supporting each other. If you stay there, follow them and get to know more people, which will be good for you and our house in the future."
Tanchun looked at Mrs. Wang with a grateful look on his face: "My wife said, I can't resist. Besides, the girls in our house are all stubborn together. I naturally followed Sister Bao and Sister Second, so I didn't fall behind." Simple reason."
Mrs. Wang liked Tanchun's obedience very much, and took her hand and said a few words, and let Tanchun go back first.
Zhou Rui's family waited until Tanchun had left before opening their mouth cautiously: "Madam, does Miss San understand what you mean?"
Mrs. Wang closed her eyes again, turned the newly found Buddhist beads from the warehouse, her face was expressionless.After a long time, she said calmly: "She understands naturally. If she doesn't understand, someone will help her understand."
After Tanchun returned to the room, the joy on his face faded, and he was no longer touched by the hospitality in front of Mrs. Wang.Instead, he picked up a blue-and-white glazed cup and squinted his eyes to look at it carefully, with an inexplicable expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
The waiter came in with a heavy sandalwood tray, walked up to Tanchun and put the tray down gently: "Girl, this is just sent by my wife. It is said to be some high-quality rose juice and ointment." There is also a powder made from purple jasmine flowers, which has the most light white and red fragrance. It was originally intended to be sent to my aunt, but I specially ordered someone to send a copy to the girl."
Tanchun put down the cup, picked up a small jar on the tray with his slender fingers, opened the lid and sniffed it lightly, and said with a smile: "The color is bright and solid, and it is fragrant, but it doesn't look frivolous at all. Mrs. I'm bothered."
The secretary smiled proudly and said: "That's not true. The wife has always valued the girl, and she wants to leave a copy of any good things for the girl. Even if it is Aunt Zhao's grandma, it is nothing more than that. The wife also said that there are too many people to kill." Cut some bright clothes for the girl, so that when she goes to the academy, she won't lose the dignity of the young lady of our Duke's Mansion."
After hearing this, Tanchun smiled and said nothing.Instead, he said to the servant: "You can put these away. The wife sent them, so don't let them be ruined by that ignorant little girl."
The waiter replied: "Girl, I know, don't worry."
After giving the order, Tanchun went into the inner room, saying that he was going to take a nap and not let anyone disturb him.But Tanchun was lying on the Babu bed, looking at the carved patterns above his head, but he couldn't close his eyes in peace.
Those high-quality makeup and bright clothes, no matter what kind of wife's grace, are clearly her Jia Tanchun's urging talisman.
The wife doesn't know at all... No, she may know, but she doesn't care.
She is a little concubine, how can Mrs. Wang see her future?What did she say about following Baochai and Yingchun? Why didn't she know the meaning of following?
It's not about being close to Princess Rouping and Princess Huining at all, but letting her find ways to get into the eyes of those emperors and nobles.
At any rate, she, Jia Tanchun, was also a majestic lady of the government, but she was dressed up and dressed up by Mrs. Wang, just to please the nobles.How is it different from the prostitutes in that building?
Tanchun thinks of Yingchun who is loved by Mrs. Xing now, and also thinks of Xichun who was born in the Eastern Mansion.The more she felt that the sky was unfair, she didn't dare to be heard by others, so she could only bite her lower lip tightly to prevent herself from making a sound.
But Tanchun wanted to be quiet, but some people refused to grant her wish.Just when she was upset, there was a burst of laughter from outside: "Oh, I heard that our girl is going to study in Yuxiu Academy soon. It's really the most honorable thing, and I came here specially to enjoy the joy. The third girl Where is it, why don't you come out to greet me? Are you going to fly to the branch and deny me this mother?"
The servant stood in front of the room in embarrassment and whispered, "Grandma Zhao, the third girl is taking a nap."
"Sleep in the afternoon—" Aunt Zhao raised her voice an octave directly: "I don't know what's going on here, do you? She never sleeps in the afternoon, why did I break the rules when I came here? Could it be that she wanted to avoid me? ?”
Distraught by the loud and sharp voice, Tanchun straightened up, rubbed his temples, and sighed annoyedly: "Servant, please come in."
Tanchun naturally knew that Mrs. Wang wanted to ask her ancestor for a place in Yuxiu Academy, but at the same time she also clearly knew that Mrs. Wang had no good intentions.
Hearing that Jin Chuan'er was here at this time, he knew that calling her this time must have something to do with the quota.Calling in the servant book to wash his face and make up in a hurry, he followed Jin Chuan'er to the East Courtyard where Mrs. Wang lives now.
