The return of Fengxi of the Red Chamber

Jia Amnesty was really angry. He had already heard the news that it was Lian's second grandma who started it.It's just that he is a father-in-law, so it's not easy for him to enter Wang Xifeng's yard, so he has to wait in Rongxi hall by himself.

It's a pity that from Jia Shishi to Jia Lian, the whole family, old and young, completely forgot him, and no one remembered to pass a letter to him.It was Jia She who sent his maid to run errands, only to find out that Wang Xifeng had given birth to a son, and Jia Shishi and others were looking after the child.

Jia She fell on his back in anger, and came out of Rongxi hall in a huff, ready to see his newborn grandson by himself.

Just as Jia Lian bumped into him head-on, he cried out bitterly in his heart, and stepped forward to pay respects: "I'm announcing the good news to the master. Brother Feng has just given birth to a son, who is very healthy and strong! You I have grandchildren!"

Jia Amnesty stretched out his leg and was about to kick him, but Jia Lian dodged it: "What is the master doing? Brother Feng and the child are both asleep. The old lady asked me to come and find you, and she said that I must hurry up and take away my brother. The name is finalized, it will be used in the three baptisms."

Jia Amnesty didn't kick anyone, and he listened to Jia Lian's words, that's all.

He turned his head and led Jia Lian to the study, took out a stack of papers, and spread a large sheet on the table, all of which were the names Jia Shen figured out.

Wang Xifeng's child, like Jia Rong and Jia Lan, should be of the cursive generation.

Because they didn't know men and women, when Jia She and Jia Lian were choosing names, they found a lot of boys and girls.Mao, Wei, Rui, Zhuo, Xuan, Fu, Ying, Rui, Zhi, Zhi, etc., almost all of them that have good meanings have been found out by the father and son after searching through ancient books, so it is extremely difficult to pick. , only everyone likes it.

The two argued for a long time, and finally decided on the word "Mao", which meant abundance and luxuriance, and also hoped that the Jia family would continue from generation to generation, and their descendants would prosper.

Now that the name has been decided, Jia Lian hurriedly went to Rongqing Hall and told Jia Shishi, Mrs. Xing and others.

Jia Shishi read it twice, put his hands together and said with a smile: "Brother Mao, it's a good intention, the name is well chosen. It just so happens that your wife has prepared the wedding gift and is about to deliver letters to each house. Since you are here today I went to Wang's house in person because I didn't work on business, because I wanted to value Feng girl, and I must invite Mrs. Wang's family to come for the three baptisms in three days."

Jia Lian agreed with a smile, and went to deliver the wedding presents with his servants. Except for Wang's family, he didn't even leave in the yamen of the Ministry of Industry, and he also sent things over, inviting them to come to the house to watch the ceremony on the third day of washing .

Now that Jia Lian is in the limelight in Beijing, his relatives and friends are willing to sell his face, and they all agree with a smile when they hear the words, and they only have to wait for three days to be lively and lively.

This side of the house was celebrating, and in the west wing of Rongqing Hall, Jia Yuanchun was holding a round go piece in his hand, listening to the laughter outside, he was in a daze.

It has been 20 days since Mrs. Wang was beaten and locked up. During these days, Jia Zheng never asked about their siblings.She shrank in the Lixiangyuan all day long, using the excuse of recovering from her injuries to stay out behind closed doors. She was so depressed that even Jia Yuanchun took Jia Baoyu to pay his respects, but couldn't enter his room.

After a few times, Jia Yuanchun didn't bother anymore, just kowtowed with Jia Baoyu at the gate of the courtyard every day, and then quietly went back to Rongqing Hall.

In all fairness, Jia Yuanchun's treatment is not bad, it is still the same as when he never entered the palace.Except that the foster mother was sent out of the mansion, and she would not be able to find a suitable one for a while, the rest of the benefits were equal to Sanchun's, or even slightly better.

After all, with Jia Shi's subsidy and Mrs. Wang's dowry money in hand, Jia Yuanchun's material life can be guaranteed.But mentally this is not the case anymore, there is only one servant girl who is familiar with Baoqin, and the rest are servants picked out from the mansion. In the past, Mrs. Wang's staff counted as one, and they were all handled by Jia Lian. sent it to Zhuangzi.

Wang's evil deeds were tightly covered, but a good noble lady, her daughter was sent into the Buddhist hall as soon as her daughter came out of the palace.Thinking of Yingchun's injury, the servants had all sorts of guesses. Although Jia Yuanchun hadn't heard it with her own ears, everyone's strange eyes pierced her heart like a needle. Make her sleepless.

The misery of the second room, compared with the elation of the big room, the situation of the two rooms seems to be reversed, and people have to sigh that time is also fate.

Jia Yuanchun was out of his mind for a long time, and when he heard the movement in the east wing, he asked Baoqin in a low voice: "Find someone to see if they are going to congratulate the second grandma over there, and then tell the second girl , that we go with them."

Baoqin glanced at her distressedly, and went to the east wing in person in response.

There are eight rooms in a row in the east wing, which is the residence of the Sanchun sisters.Each of them was divided into two rooms, and the remaining two rooms were reserved for the nuns. Because the room was spacious, it didn't seem crowded.

When Baoqin walked to the door, he saw Xi'er coming up with a smile on his face: "Sister Baoqin is here, please sit in the room quickly, our girl, the third girl, and the fourth girl are choosing for the second grandma and Mao. My brother's gift. The whole room is in a mess, and my eyes are dazzled. Sister Baoqin is knowledgeable, and she also helped us with my eyes."

They treat each other with courtesy, and they don't know how to show face when they hold the piano, so they went in with a smile: "It's not that we are blind, our girl has been picking for a long time, and I still haven't chosen well. I heard the voice from your side again, Worried that I was one step too late, I sent me over in a hurry, saying that everyone will go together when the time comes, and it will be lively and neat."

Xi'er also laughed, and personally helped Baoqin to close the curtain: "We should go together. I just went out to find the eldest girl. Just now, sister Amber from the old lady's side came and said it was the second grandma and Mao. My brothers are all asleep, let us girls not hurry over there, and let them have a good rest. Our girls seem to be in a hurry, but we are afraid of disturbing our brothers and grandma, so we open the warehouse to pick things. "

Holding the piano and listening to the strings, she knew the elegant meaning, and immediately answered the words: "People say that giving birth is tiring, and the second grandma must have suffered a lot, so why don't we wait until after the lunch break?"

Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun were indeed opening a warehouse to find things, and they all heard Baoqin's words at this moment.

Xichun is young, but it's just making up the numbers. It's Yingchun and Tanchun. Hearing this, he smiled and nodded: "It can be seen that Sister Baoqin is very stable, and she is very good after lunch break. Sister Feng must have been exhausted at that time. Now, the weather is warm again, and I can play with Mao Geer."

Baoqin stayed with her in the room for a while, and then made a few suggestions, then left with a smile.

And Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun finally picked out gifts for Wang Xifeng and Brother Mao.

The handkerchief for Wang Xifeng was made by the three of them.It is said to be a joint effort, but in fact it is just that after the embroiderer brought out several fabric patterns, Xichun was responsible for picking out one of them, Tanchun helped arrange the thread, and Yingchun embroidered it out.The embroidering work of this handkerchief can only be said to be average, but the intention is sufficient, Wang Xifeng didn't have any good things in his hand, and the things the three little girls brought out could catch her eyes, and that's all.

As for Mao Geer, it was the amulet worn by the three sisters since they were young, and they were worn from birth until they reached their full age.The small toys next to it, because the three sisters are all girls, if they are used by Brother Mao, they will look a little more elegant and weak, but this amulet is unisex.

Over there, Jia Yuanchun got the news, and picked out two things from his private treasury. The one for Wang Xifeng was a set of honors, which was originally rewarded by the empress when he was in the palace.Not to mention the workmanship, what is rare is the decency bestowed by the royal family, so it is not bad to give it as a gift.

Mao Geer's is a nine-link ring carved from suet white jade. The jade is shiny and translucent, and the tentacles are warm and cool. It is a rare and good thing.

This was also an object that Jia Yuanchun used when he was a child. At that time, when Jia Daishan was still alive and the Rongguo Mansion was in full swing, as the only girl among the grandchildren in the family, she was loved by thousands of people.Things that other families want to use as family heirlooms can only be used as casual objects in front of Jia Yuanchun.

Jia Yuanchun rubbed the Nine Rings a few times, sighed secretly in his heart, picked a box to put it in and didn't think about it anymore.

The past is gone, she still has her younger brother and nephew to take care of, and her mother who is imprisoned in the Buddhist hall needs to be taken care of.Seeing that Jia Zheng was abolished, Jia Zhu left early. Only when he stood up by himself, Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan could be regarded as backers. They were the Wang family in the Buddhist hall. Everyone looked at it for their own sake. On the other hand, I won't be too harsh.

At this moment, a maid from outside came to report that Jia Baoyu had come.

Ever since Mrs. Wang was injured and entered the Buddhist hall, and Jia Zheng let go of her, Jia Yuanchun consciously took over the burden of raising Jia Baoyu as a sister on behalf of his mother.Originally, when Jia Baoyu was young, it was Jia Yuanchun who taught him more. They both lived in Rongqing Hall, and they could always see each other in daily life, which was more convenient than Mrs. Wang.

In addition, Jia Yuanchun had a lot of homework at that time, and only when he was with Jia Baoyu every day, he could relax a little, which was considered an adjustment.Therefore, when Baoyu was young, he followed Yuanchun mostly. Before he was three years old, he had already recognized hundreds of characters in his heart, and he was well-organized in speaking and doing things.

It's just that after Jia Yuanchun entered the palace, Jia Shishi and Mrs. Wang indulged blindly, and were surrounded by a bunch of maids and women, eating and playing all day long, these two years were wasted.

In the evidence that Jia Lian took out last time, Mrs. Wang also murdered Jia Min. Jia Shishi has always loved Jia Min, an old woman.Now, because of Mrs. Wang's jealousy from nowhere, she forcibly ruined her own daughter's body, causing her to be unable to conceive after ten years of marriage. broken.

Jia Min and Lin Ruhai have a good relationship. Even though Jia Min has been infertile for many years, Lin Ruhai insists on not taking concubines.It wasn't until Jia Min gave birth to Lin Daiyu with his life that the doctor asserted that she was in a bad health and would not be able to give birth in the future. Jia Min cried a few times, and then she personally chose a few concubines for Lin Ruhai to give birth to.

In such an era, no matter what their relationship is like between husband and wife, Jia Min can't and dare not let the Lin family die, taking concubines is the only way to go.It's a pity that these people also failed to conceive. Later, when Lin Daiyu was three years old, Jia Min gave birth to another son as if fighting for his life. Three to five months were spent in bed.

Thinking of his daughter's sufferings these years, Jia Shishi was filled with disgust and hatred towards Mrs. Wang, and his attitude towards Jia Yuanchun and Jia Baoyu was also somewhat inexplicable.It's just that she covered it up so well that even Jia Yuanchun didn't find out, let alone Jia Baoyu, who eats and sleeps. Now that Jia Yuanchun has taken over Jia Baoyu's affairs, Jia Shishi is secretly relieved.

Gossip aside, after seeing his younger brother, Jia Yuanchun took a pen and paper and began to teach every day.First, copy twenty big characters, write each one five times, and after a short rest, start reading.

In the 20 days since Jia Yuanchun came back, he has almost finished teaching the "Three Character Classic", which is more than what Jia Baoyu learned in the previous year.When the five pages of the book were finished and Jia Baoyu memorized it again, the class this morning was considered over.

The siblings rested for a while, and then they held hands and went to Jia Shi's room for dinner. The three sisters, Sanchun, had just finished class, and two groups of people arrived one after the other.

Jia Shishi was in a happy mood today, and specially ordered the big kitchen to provide extra meals for everyone.The food for the servants is all ready, and the master's is of course more abundant. All kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas are set on the table, and every dish is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Just after Wang Xifeng gave birth, Mrs. Wang was locked up again, so only Mrs. Xing and Li Wan served Jia Shishi for dinner.However, the maidservants and women are the most occupied in Rongqing Hall, and the two of them just follow along to pick up vegetables, and the others can't work for them.

A tofu dish served in the big kitchen today is very well made. It is the famous Jiang Shilang tofu, which is delicious in color, fragrance and taste.In the past, Jia Shishi loved this dish very much. She had bad teeth, and the tofu dish was more restrained.

Seeing that it was on the table now, Mrs. Xing scooped up two spoons with a small spoon and put them in front of her to taste.

Jia Shishi took a sip, the taste was delicious and extremely smooth, it slid down the esophagus into the stomach, it had a wonderful taste.She was eating well, so she nodded involuntarily, and then signaled to the maids to give Jia Baoyu, Sichun and others a little bit to taste.

Several people feel good after eating it, which is more suitable for several people's tastes than the usual heavy oil and salt in the big kitchen of Jia's mansion.After a delicious meal, coupled with the good news of Wang Xifeng's birth, it was considered a peaceful meal.

When Jia Shishi put down the chopsticks, Jia Yuanchun and the others hurriedly put down the bowls and chopsticks, and went to the side to sit and drink tea and chat.

Jia Shishi took a sip of tea, and then said with a smile: "Master He Zhu's daughter-in-law, go, I have a few maids and Baoyu here to accompany me, so you don't need to wait here."

Mrs. Xing hurriedly got up and said a few gossips, then she and Li Wan withdrew and went to dinner without mentioning it.

Here, Jia Shishi saw four granddaughters with different styles, and despite the idea of ​​his resentment towards Mrs. Wang, he was still very satisfied.He also heard from Jia Yuanchun that Baoyu could recite most of the "Three Character Classics" now, and he was even more happy.

"It can be seen that Yuan girl has a way. No matter how many teachers teach her on weekdays, it doesn't work. I just live vaguely in the school." Jia Shishi looked at the Yuanchun sister and brother with a smile, and then smiled with interest, " Since Baoyu knows how to recite it, he will also recite it for us now, and if he recites it well, I will reward you here."

Jia Baoyu saw his sisters and sisters in the room all looking at him intently, and immediately became interested, and began to recite: "At the beginning of human beings, nature is kind and similar, □□..."

He recited it very fluently, he finished recite what he had learned in a short while, everyone in the room headed by Jia Shishi couldn't help complimenting him.For a moment, Jia Baoyu couldn't help puffing out his chest, looking like a little rooster, and the smile on his face was even brighter, sweeping away the sluggishness of the previous period.

Seeing this, Jia Yuanchun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and became more determined to teach Jia Baoyu how to read.

Since Yingchun was accidentally injured last time, Jia Baoyu has been a little sluggish for the past few days, Mrs. Wang and Jia Zheng had an accident again, and the people around him, except for the ones given by Jia Shishi, have all changed their lives. Once, there was not even a place to complain.

Moreover, the servants of the Jia family worshiped the high and stepped down the most. Seeing the complete decline of the second room, even Mrs. Wang used the excuse of worshiping the Buddha to stay behind closed doors. There was only a big girl who was about to get married. point.

Jia Baoyu really grew up holding it in the palm of his hand, a veritable phoenix egg, and has never been treated coldly. This period of time is really tormented.

Although Jia Yuanchun is the elder sister of his mother and compatriots, she has had a lot of bad things recently, and after all, she has been away from the mansion for many years, and she has no other useful people in her hands except holding the piano.Apart from staring at Jia Baoyu's reading, she couldn't imagine the attitude of the subordinates. After all, the second room is now separated, so naturally the status and treatment are not the same as before, and Jia Baoyu can only let Jia Baoyu adapt.

Now taking advantage of this opportunity, Jia Baoyu once again got Jia Shishi's favor, Jia Yuanchun would not be unhappy.

She is already twenty-one years old, and she got the order of the Queen Mother and Queen to go out of the palace to marry. Even if Jia Shishi said that she would keep her for a while, this time will not be too long, at the latest, she will marry at the end of the year out.If Jia Shishi really abandoned Jia Baoyu, in the future, he will be a child without the protection of his parents, how will he live in this deep house and compound?

Jia Shishi could guess half of Jia Yuanchun's thoughts, but she did not give up Yuanchun and Baoyu's thoughts.These two are both direct descendants of the Jia family, and they were both brought up by her alone. Not to mention Baoyu is still young, Yuan Chun is indeed very good.

As for Baoyu, let alone the life experience of being born with jade, just the fact that his appearance is very similar to Jia Daishan is enough for Jia Shi to love his house and black.Moreover, Baoyu is really very intelligent, but he has always been playful. If someone can subdue his temperament, he will definitely be better than Jia Zhu who died early in the imperial examination. of.

Under such considerations, Jia Shishi naturally would not give up on the two siblings, but had to educate them carefully so that they could contribute to the prosperity of the Jia family in the future.

One more thing, Jia Zheng is her beloved youngest son after all, seeing him decadent now, Jia Shishi is in the mood of Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian, so naturally he can't do anything more.But Jia Baoyu and Jia Yuanchun are getting better, and Jia Zheng, as their own father, doesn't worry that they will be old and have nowhere to depend on in the future, living in poverty.

Let’s not mention these small thoughts for the time being, only say that after Jia Baoyu finished reciting the poem, Jia Shishi praised with a smile, gave Fang Shanghao an inkstone, and encouraged him to practice calligraphy well. stubble.

Jia Shishi looked at Sanchun and said: "You must have known about the happy event in our mansion today, and I also know that you are in a hurry to see Brother Mao, so I don't want to keep you here. Only one thing, Brother Mao My son is young now, and you are still young, and your sister Feng is also tired, so you are not allowed to mess around, can you hear me clearly?"

When Sanchun heard the words, they all stood up and responded respectfully, promising not to disturb Wang Xifeng and Brother Mao.

Jia Shishi turned to look at Jia Yuanchun again, and said: "Yuan girl, you are the eldest sister, but you need to pay extra attention to your three younger sisters and Baoyu, the monkey head. It's going to be a big day. , go back to sleep for a while, and then go to visit together, we will spend a lot of time together in the future, after seeing it, come back to my place for dinner."

Jia Yuanchun also responded with a smile: "Don't worry, old lady, the younger sisters are all sensible, even Baoyu is now an uncle, and will not mess around anymore. I took my younger brothers and sisters over and saw Brother Mao. He and Feng Geer will come back and won't disturb the rest of the two of them."

Only then did Jia Shishi feel relieved, and ordered everyone to go back to their houses to rest, and no matter what gifts they prepared, they would always have their own nanny and foster mother watching over them, and they were family members, so they would not go out. There is nothing wrong with it.

Jia Shishi is getting old, and he got up early this morning. After staying in Wang Xifeng's courtyard for half a day, he was already tired.After eating, the servant girls took a rest and fell asleep after a while.

Outside, Jia Yuanchun and the others left the main room. Although they went back to their houses, they didn't sleep.

Because Jia Yuanchun was older, he and Sanchun couldn't play together, so he went back to the room on his own, and took Jia Baoyu away by the way.And San Chunju acted like a baby to the foster mother, saying that they were not sleepy today, and gathered together to look forward to the newborn nephew.

This is not the first junior in Jia's family, but Jia Lan's background is embarrassing, and Jia Zhu fell into an "acute illness" when she was still in Li Wan's womb.Therefore, when Jia Lan was born, it was during Jia Zhu's filial piety. At that time, Jia Shishi and Mrs. Wang, together with Jia Lan's mother-in-law Li Wan, were sad and sad. Just come down.

Jia Lan's biological grandparents didn't care, and his mother, Li Wan, couldn't talk about it. Not to mention Sanchun and others, even the servants below didn't care about her.

Brother Mao is different now, not to mention that Wang Xifeng is better at dealing with things than Li Wan, but Jia Mao's status alone is the eldest son and grandson of the Rongguo Mansion, and his status can be regarded as the most honorable among the great-grandchildren .

Another one, Dafang's family has obviously been looking forward to it since Wang Xifeng was pregnant, and they have always been in a state of extreme concern.A child who is eagerly awaited is always more valued by everyone. Mao Geer carries the ardent blessings of Jia She and Jia Lian's two generations, and Sanchun and others naturally pay attention in every possible way.

Regardless of what the three little girls fantasized about, when Jia Yuanchun woke up from his afternoon nap and found out that Wang Xifeng was having lunch, he took the gifts he had prepared earlier and led a group of younger siblings to the to the East Courtyard.
