The return of Fengxi of the Red Chamber

The Ministry of Industry had a lot of people traveling this time, there were more than [-] miscellaneous people, and there were entourages and servants to follow, and they took three official ships.

Jia Lian was the most respected among them, but he did not take the car with the others, but traveled overland with a few entourages.He made an appointment with the people where to meet, and after sending the adults on board, he drove away, starry night, and went to Liuzhou to look for Mr. Liu.

This Mr. Liu was originally a good friend of Mr. Bai's in the past, and he is very proficient in the way of water conservancy and astronomy, but the current court does not pay attention to this way, so he can only live in the mountains and fields, which is considered depressed.

Jia Lian came here to invite him to come out of the mountain, so that he can give some help when surveying the topography.

In addition, there are seven or eight people on the list, all of whom are well-educated, but what they are proficient in does not match the imperial examination, so none of them have ever been an official.Three of them were helpful to Jia Lian in building the railway, while the rest were abducted by Jia Lian to go to sea for personal purposes.

Don't mention how he put all his energy into recruiting talents, but just talking about the capital city, it became more and more lively.

After Wang Xifeng announced that she was pregnant, on the one hand, Jia Shishi sympathized with her hard pregnancy, and on the other hand, Wang Xifeng had to take care of Brother Mao and Sister Qiao, and she was really too busy, so she handed over the housekeeping rights to Mrs. Xing Li Wan, Li Wan and Tanchun took care of them on their behalf.

This was a good thing, but Wang Xifeng has a really good temper these past few years, and Jia Lian is not at home all year round, so he can't stand those ghosts and monsters, so he took advantage of Wang Xifeng's pregnancy to stir up trouble.

This day was the first day of September, Baoyu, Tanchun and Jia Huan on the third day, got up early in the morning and went to Lixiangyuan to greet Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng seldom went out these years, only Aunt Zhao was by his side, under Jia Shi's tricks, who took care of him day and night.It's just that since Jia Zheng got hurt and lost his official position, his temper became more and more lonely, and he would punch Aunt Zhao from time to time.

Whenever Tanchun thinks of his biological parents, he can't help hiding under the quilt and crying.

But Baoyu and Jiahuan are not the same as Tanchun.Luckily, Baoyu had Jia Shishi's care, and when Yuanchun sent the gift from Geshan every five days, the maid sent by her mother-in-law to visit and teach, and she never changed her mind.Compared with the previous life, Jia Baoyu in this life is more sensible and mature. Although he also likes to joke and play with the beautiful maid girls, he has never said anything about "Lu Gui", and he can be regarded as hardworking when he is studying. .

But Jia Huan was different, Jia Shishi didn't think much of him, even though he was also raised in Rongqing Hall, he just took care of his food and drink, no one taught him the principles of life.Secondly, Jia Huan also attended lectures under Mr. Bai, but compared to Brother Mao, Lin Dong and others, he was barely a registered student, and Mr. Bai paid very little attention to him.

Thirdly, when it comes to servants, there is no one who does not worship the high and step down, especially the Jia family.Although Wang Xifeng punished her several times with cruel hands, but people's hearts are like this, and it cannot be reversed with a few words of training.Jia Huan had no grandmother or parents to back him up, and he had no capable brothers and sisters, and he was not close to Wang Xifeng and his wife. His own talent was only average, and he really couldn't be respected and feared by the servants.

Even though there is an older sister Tanchun, the relationship between Tanchun and Wang Xifeng is much worse than Yingchun and Xichun.She will only protect herself now, and she is powerless to support her brother, not to mention that Tanchun has always disliked Jia Huan.

All these, Jia Huan's life is not good.

He is not very old, so he can often go to Lixiangyuan to cry with Aunt Zhao while the servants are not paying attention.Aunt Zhao just hoped that her son would stand up, so she would not be nervous, she would come up with some ideas from time to time, or scold those servants who bullied him for Jia Huan, and the relationship between mother and son improved.

No, after the greeting, Baoyu and Tanchun left Lixiangyuan as quickly as possible under the pretext of having something to do.But Jia Huan procrastinated and refused to leave for a long time. Jia Zheng was impatient to see him, so he just waved his hand and asked Aunt Zhao to take him back to his room.

Aunt Zhao got the order, took her son's hand and went back to the house, ordered the maid to watch outside the door, and whispered to Jia Huan herself.

"You mean, there is Second Grandma Lian again? Second Grandpa Lian is not at home, and Second Grandma left the housework to Grandma and your sister?"

Jia Huan sat aside and nodded, and said a little angrily, "Third Sister is too much. I saw that Brother Bao had a dish of three fresh deer tendon at lunch yesterday, and I wanted to eat it too. But Third Sister insisted that no one make it for me." , I have to ask me to make up the money, but I can't afford the money, so I didn't eat the food."

Aunt Zhao was furious when she heard the words, and scolded: "What a third girl, this is just trying to pick up the old lady and the big room. How could she ever remember that she came out of my stomach, and she is the same mother as you?" I'm going to find someone to find her right now, I have to ask her why she is so disregarding the sister-brother friendship!"

Jia Huan sighed, held her hand and said: "Auntie is wasting all her efforts, this house is full of property from the big house, our second house has already been separated, don't make it difficult for my sister. I just hate that I don't have a capable father and brother Unlike Brother Maoer and Sister Qiao, who are already the head of the Shizi county at a young age, even the one in the stomach of the second sister-in-law is a hundred times stronger than her son."

When Aunt Zhao heard what Jia Huan said, she also felt uncomfortable in her heart. She wiped her tears and said, "It's all because of your master's incompetence. He has tired your siblings. That old and immortal thing is still the Duke of the state if he is blind for nothing." The second master of the mansion is useless! My aunt is also useless, if you were born in the wife's stomach, you are now a son of a son, why would you suffer this for a dish?"

Having said this, Aunt Zhao's expression froze suddenly, and an idea came to her mind.

Now the first house and the second house of the Jia family have separated, but because Jia Shishi is still alive and Jia Zheng looks like this, they live in one place, and the property is not separated from the family.Jia Zhu is already dead, if he can figure out a way to put Jia Baoyu to death, then Jia Zheng will only have Jia Huan as his son, don't worry about the dead old woman in Rongqingtang not paying attention to Huan'er.

As soon as she thought about it, she did it, Aunt Zhao's expression was serious, she sent Jia Huan back in a few words, and quietly ordered her personal servant girl to find her old lady and come over when it was dark.

The mother and daughter chatted for a long time, and Aunt Zhao ruthlessly packed up two sets of expensive jewelry from her head, and gave them to Mrs. Zhao to pawn to raise money.

Mrs. Zhao raised 300 taels of silver after going through several hands, and took it to ask Ma Daopo to do it.

"I also ask Xiangu to help. Our family is very grateful. The 100 taels of silver is regarded as a deposit. After the matter is completed, there will be a big thank you!"

Ma Daopo flicked the box of silver out of the corner of her eye, and couldn't stop being happy, but she said: "It's just because I used to have some friendship with your daughter, and you came to beg me at such an old age, but I don't know what to do." I have to do it. It’s just that this matter is detrimental to morality after all, at least it takes 200 taels of silver, which is enough for my preparations, but your silver is not enough.”

Mrs. Zhao hates her for opening her mouth like a lion, but she can't think about it. She is old and mature enough, so she just pretends to be unreasonable: "Xiangu knows about our family. Where can I get 200 taels now? It's all sold out." I only got the jewelry from you guys. I know in my heart that what you said must be reasonable, so you prepare it first, and I will go home and collect money, and I will definitely send it to you the morning after tomorrow at the latest. "

Ma Daopo closed her eyes halfway and nodded in agreement.

On the evening of the second day, Mrs. Zhao really came with a bag of scattered money: "This is what my family borrowed and collected. General Xiangu will use it. After your business is completed, we will take all the money." Come out, let my daughter thank you then."

After getting the money, Ma Daopo said with a smile on her face: "What kind of friendship we have, you will never be disappointed. In three days, you come to my place, and I will give you something."

Mrs. Zhao went there with great gratitude, Ma Daopo got the money, she was so happy that she could see her teeth but not her eyes, and she was very happy for a while.The next day, she took 50 taels of silver, quietly went up the mountain to find her master, and returned with two paper figurines.

On the third day, when Mrs. Zhao came again, Ma Daopo took out two paper figurines and said, "On one of them, you write the person's birth date and stuff it under his bed and hide it. But Zhang kept it in your own hands, and also wrote his birth date and name on it. If you want to make him suffer, you can pierce the extraordinary meridians of the paper figurine, and the life and death acupoints everywhere, and keep him crying and screaming. Peace of mind for a moment."

Mrs. Zhao was overjoyed when she heard the words, and asked about the operation method in detail, and then went to the family with the paper.

Not to mention how Aunt Zhao played around, she finally stuffed the paper figurine under Jia Baoyu's bed, and stuck a few needles into the paper figurine because she had nothing to do to avoid people.Sometimes when she was in a good mood, she would pierce where she would not get in the way. If she was beaten by Jia Zheng, she would pierce where it would kill her.

After a day or two like this, Jia Baoyu already yelled that everyone in the house knew that his head ached, his feet ached, his whole body ached, and there was nothing good anywhere.

Jia Shishi called many imperial physicians to see him, but it was useless, and he couldn't even find a cause, let alone Jia Baoyu's cure.I went to pray in various temples and Taoist temples, and gave up a lot of money for sesame oil, but I never found the real Buddha.

As a last resort, Jia's family put up notices everywhere, only asking capable people with lofty ideals to help, so as to save Jia Baoyu's life.

Seeing the time passing day by day, Jia Baoyu almost couldn't eat any more food, crying and crying all day and night, and became emaciated. Jia Shishi and others wiped their tears, but there was nothing they could do.

Wang Xifeng was also frightened for a while, and she suddenly remembered that this happened once in her previous life.But at that moment, not only did Jia Baoyu suffer, but even she herself was not well. Her whole body ached as if she had been bewitched, and she felt that she was in danger.

Later, it was indeed proved that he was bewitched by evil spirits. Fortunately, a lame Taoist and a monk with a skinny head came to help, and they took Jia Baoyu's piece of jade and chanted a few times, which solved the crisis for the two of them.

But that monk's whereabouts are uncertain, and he has only heard about it in rumors. Where will he look for it now?

Wang Xifeng was worried, and Jia Shishi was even more anxious, so he had to ask the Lin family, Wang family, Xue family and Shenjun Wang's family for help.

It was also at this time that Wang Xifeng learned that many years ago, the girls from the Lin family and the Xue family had already received this monk's comment.
