Melting love and rhyme make up the red building

But she said that Aunt Xue was enjoying herself secretly, but suddenly she heard a faint cry from outside, so she raised her voice and asked outside: "Who is making noise outside?"

Tongxi, the girl who waited outside, hurriedly ordered the little girl to take a look. After a while, she came back and said that the uncle and grandma were angry, and the uncle slapped the grandmother in a hurry.Please ask your wife to go and have a look.

Aunt Xue scolded: "You two careless bastards, seeing your younger sister is about to get married, and the sister-in-law doesn't know how to help, but makes endless noises, what are you doing!" Leaving Tong Xi to go out.

He just came to the yard, and before she could stand still, a man pushed straight towards him.

But it turned out that Xia Jingui was so angry because Xue Pan went out to spend time and wine yesterday, got drunk and was carried back by the servant boy. This morning, seeing Xue Pan sober, he proposed I want to go back to my mother's house for a while, but Xue Pan reprimanded me for not thinking about it, saying that my sister is going to get married soon, and you, a sister-in-law, don't say helping your mother-in-law to take care of things, but you go to the house all day long. How decent is it to run away from your mother's family?No!

Xia Jingui also said that he had heard wrong, since the day he entered Xue's house, Xue Pan had never lost his temper with him, let alone scolded him!Why did you take the wrong medicine today?Dare to talk to my old lady like that?

After thinking about it again, could it be that what my mother-in-law said yesterday had an effect?He didn't show weakness and opened his mouth to scold: "I want to go back, old lady, what's the matter? You are only allowed to fool around outside all day long, but I don't even allow you to go back to your natal family. Since I married into your Xue family, my natal family accompanied me. How many things and silver, now that you have all the things in your hands, you will take out the money from the uncle?"

Xue Pan has a domineering nature and is not good at talking, let alone bickering with others, so he opened his mouth and cursed: "Little whore! Not only did the uncle take your dowry, but the whole of you was taken by the uncle!"

When Jingui heard that Xue Pan was fooling around, he knew it would be useless to say any more, so he stopped talking and turned around to pack his things and prepare to go out.

Xue Pan had been taken down by Jingui since the day he got married, and he didn't dare to yell at her, and he followed his daughter-in-law no matter what happened this year.Just because yesterday morning, Aunt Xue called him away and told Baochai that she was going to get married soon, and as an older brother, he should put on a good show and stop just messing around outside.

Xue Pan thought about how much his younger sister had put in for this family over the years, thanks to her always being happy to relieve boredom in front of his mother, and always gently persuading his reckless brother, and caring for him very much on weekdays. The benefits are not unknown to me.

Thinking about the day when my younger sister will be happy soon, the older brother should do something for her. Although I don't have much ability, I hope that I can marry my younger sister in a good manner, and my late father's heart will be at ease!

After listening to Aunt Xue's teachings during the day, Xue Pan wanted to stay at home and get some dowry for his younger sister, but he didn't want to have such drinking friends outside, and he couldn't help but go to the house again. Well, this morning when I woke up from the wine, I was so annoyed that Jingui, ignorant of current affairs, proposed to go back to her mother's house, so she got angry.

That Jingui only cared about getting things to go back to her mother's house, packed up the burden and called the girl to go out. When Xue Pan saw it, he was furious and snatched the burden and threw it on the ground. Jingui came up in a hurry and scratched him, but what It was Xue Pan's opponent. Unfortunately, Xue Pan hit Jingui's face with a wave of his hand, and half of his face turned purple.

Jingui has been held in the palm of his hand and cared for since he was a child. Where has he suffered such a loss, he stepped forward and grabbed it like crazy.Seeing that her face was injured, Xue Pan's heart softened immediately, so he stepped into the yard to hide, and Jingui also ran over.No, Aunt Xue was helping the girl to come over. Jingui was even more angry when she saw that her mother-in-law was a good son she had raised, so she ran towards Aunt Xue with all her strength.

Tong Xi, who was on the side, pulled Aunt Xue aside with quick eyes and quick hands. Jin Gui missed his head and fell straight forward a few steps and fell to the ground. Because of the excessive force, he scratched that half of his face immediately. Seeing Mrs. When she came out, Jingui's girl didn't dare to step forward to help her for a moment, and Jingui rolled over and sat on the ground, crying, cursing nonchalantly, making Aunt Xue tremble with anger, and pointed at her. But he couldn't speak, turned around and wanted to vent his anger on his son, but he didn't want Xue Pan to see his mother coming out, knowing that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were not good at each other, and this matter would never be resolved, so he took the opportunity and ran out.

Baochai in the backyard also got the letter early, because she knew that her persuasion in the past would not be effective, and she would be disturbed by her sister-in-law, so she said to Yinger, "Let them make trouble, and it will be all right in a while."

Ying'er said: "I heard people say that grandma wanted to go back to her mother's house, but the uncle refused to let me fight."

Baochai frowned and said, "Brother, it's true. What's the harm in letting her go? She's gone, and the courtyard is quieter."

Just as she was talking, Wen Xing ran in outside and said, "It's not good, girl, my wife was almost knocked down by the grandma, and she got sick again from anger."

Baochai stood up abruptly when she heard this, and said anxiously to Yinger, "Go, go and have a look."

When the master and servant came to Aunt Xue's room, they saw her mother lying on the bed, clutching her chest and rubbing her chest, while Tong Xi was busy taking a handkerchief to test Aunt Xue's tears.

Seeing Baochai coming in, Tong Xi hurriedly said, "Come and see, girl, my wife always complains that my chest hurts!"

Baochai came over and sat by the bed, and asked anxiously, "What does mother think? Why don't you invite a doctor to come and have a look?"

Aunt Xue shook her head and said: "It will be all right after a while. If you go to invite the doctor, you will alarm the people in the house. It is better to have one less thing than one more thing."

Baochai said: "Let's go and invite Dr. Cha from Heniantang in the west of the city to come over. I heard that his medical skills are also good."

Aunt Xue burst into tears and said: "Chai'er, my son! Mother is so distressed. I dare to know that you are gone, and I am left with these two enemies day and night. Maybe someday Chai'er will not see mother!"

Baochai took out a handkerchief and gave it to Aunt Xue to try gently, and persuaded softly: "When the daughter is married, the sister-in-law will not be angry because she sees the daughter every time, and she will not make things difficult for the mother. Besides, the daughter is married. , I can often come back to see my mother."

Baochai said to Tongxi again: "Go quickly and ask the kitchen to cook Bupleurum soothing liver soup for mother." Tongxi agreed and went.

Baochai comforted her mother for a while, and Aunt Xue finally recovered her breath.Just now he said he wanted to take a rest, but Zhou Rui's family, the accompanying room of Mrs. Jia's wife, came over and said that his wife invited him and wanted to discuss something important.

Baochai hurriedly responded with a smile, and smiled at Aunt Xue: "Mom is going to see Aunt! It just so happened that someone came to invite her."

Zhou Rui's family looked outside and then smiled to Aunt Xue and said, "Is it convenient for my wife now? Otherwise, the maidservant will go back to the wife later and then go there later."

Baochai smiled and said: "My sister-in-law was just about to go out to go back to her mother's house. She accidentally fell in the yard, but she scratched her skin a little. Because my sister-in-law was raised more delicately, I went to find the little girl. On the body, there is no mercy!"

Zhou Rui's family listened with a smile and said: "The servants are no big deal, it's just that the maids didn't clean the yard well, and the grandma was shocked, so let the servants tell the servants to beat those girls and kick them out, that's all. Why bother making such a fuss?"

After hearing what Zhou Rui's family said, Aunt Xue couldn't help but blush, but she saw Baochai smiling indifferently: "Yes! Sister Zhou is right, so I'm still persuading mother! Left and right are nothing but slaves. It's not just a word from my mother, why bother to get so angry with them!"

Zhou Rui's family heard that there was something wrong with Baochai's words inside and out, and his heart moved. He looked coldly at Baochai in front of him, as dignified and calm as usual, but he felt a trace of anger from Baochai's faint words. I know that this girl Bao is not easy to mess with, and now that she is the second grandma of Bao in Jia's mansion in the future, I don't want to underestimate her.Then he hurriedly laughed and interrupted: "Auntie, hurry up, my wife is waiting there!"

It's nothing new that Mrs. Wang asked Aunt Xue to go, but it was because of Daiyu's marriage.

In Mrs. Wang's room, Aunt Xue saw that her sister was frowning and worried, so she had to suppress her anger and slowed down her tone: "Why is brother-in-law so stubborn? Although Lin Yatou is his niece, but It’s not as good as your own daughter, isn’t it? What’s wrong with the prince of Xining County? Although he is older, he knows how to love people better than young people!”

Mrs. Wang said quietly: "Sister, do you know what the master told me yesterday?"

Aunt Xue said blankly: "Could something have changed?"

Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth and said, "Master wants to betroth that girl to Lord Beijing!"

"Ah!" Aunt Xue was taken aback. This King of Beijing is the head of the four county kings and the emperor's most trusted courtier.

Mrs. Wang said: "How can I think of a way to let the master get rid of this idea?"

Aunt Xue asked: "Why is the Beijing Palace also looking at this girl?"

Mrs. Wang said: "Have you forgotten that Concubine Bei Jing came to the mansion a few days ago and invited several girls to see her?"

Aunt Xue thought for a while and said, "I remember, but there was no news after that, and no one mentioned it again."

Mrs. Wang fiddled with the beads in her hand and said: "At that time, I thought that the concubine fell in love with the hairpin, and it made my heart hang for a long time, but the concubine has no more words since then, which is really disappointing." I do not understand."

Not to mention that the two sisters have guessed and guessed here, but they still can't figure out what kind of medicine is actually sold in the gourd of the Beijing Palace?

But it turns out that Prince Shui Rong of Beijing also heard about Jia's marriage proposal to Daiyu, and he couldn't help feeling suspicious: Didn't Miss Lin be engaged to Jia Baoyu?How else...

It was only past noon that day, after finishing the matter at hand, Shui Rong took Feixu and walked quickly to the concubine's room.

Arriving in front of the concubine's door, Shui Rong lifted the curtain and walked in without letting the maids report, but bumped into the concubine's maid, Xiangcao.

"Ouch! My lord?" Vanilla covered her forehead and called.

Shui Rong pulled back all his strength, supported Xiang Cao and said, "It's you? Why are you so flustered?"

Vanilla laughed and said, "The servant girl is going to find the prince!"

"Is Rong'er coming?" The voice of the concubine came from inside.

"Mother Concubine, Rong'er is here to greet you." Speaking of Shui Rong, he stepped over Vanilla and answered inside. Behind Vanilla and Feixu, they looked at each other and smiled, and followed hand in hand.

"Mother and concubine, I heard that it's about Duke Rong Jia's mansion," Shui Rongcai said impatiently as soon as he sat down.

Concubine Beijing also just heard that Concubine Side came to talk about this matter, and Concubine Side also laughed and said that she wanted to marry the girl from Jia's mansion to be Zhan'er's concubine, but the Prince of Xining took the lead. Said that among these suitors, only the king of Xining County was the most honorable, and whoever dared to compete with him gave up this idea.

The concubine was also secretly surprised when she heard the words of the concubine side, and seeing that the concubine side belittled Daiyu so much, she felt very disapproving, so she said: "Miss Lin is the daughter of a family of the fourth generation, a decent family, The daughter of the ex-patron Yan Yushilin, who is quite proficient in poetry and prose, not to mention her natural appearance, how could she go with Zhan'er lightly? I saw my sister was free, so I went to invite a good doctor to show Yilan Look, I would like to give birth to a big fat grandson for my younger sister as soon as possible!" Then Yilan is the daughter-in-law of Shui Zhan, the niece of the side concubine.

The concubine side didn't know why the concubine turned the conversation to her during the conversation, and she also knew that this concubine's sister was the most straightforward, so she didn't take it to heart, she just smiled and said: "Sister is right, but we Sister gossip! My sister is going now. The older brother sent a message saying that there is a doctor in Baoding Mansion who has a good pulse! I want to invite my daughter-in-law to see it! It is agreed that my sister will go over to discuss it in two days What!" After saying that, he said goodbye to the concubine and left.

As soon as the concubine side went out, the concubine called Xiang Cao over and told her to see if the prince had come down. If she came here immediately, she said that she had something important to discuss with the prince, and she didn't want to be so quick Then came over.

Concubine Bei Jing smiled and said, "The news about Rong'er is also coming soon!"

Shui Rong asked anxiously: "Mother and Concubine, do you know that King Xining also went to propose marriage?"

Concubine Bei Jing nodded and said: "Mother and concubine already know, what are you afraid of? He is over forty years old, and he already has a concubine at home, but he is just taking a concubine. If he wants to come to Jia's mansion, he will not give Miss Lin to him as a concubine." room."

Shui Rong said: "But the boy heard that Jia's mansion didn't refuse, he just said to think about it, if you don't have the heart, how can you think about it?"

Concubine Bei Jing let out an 'oh', and asked again: "Are you serious?"

Shui Rong also sighed: "I don't believe what I say, even if she can't marry Jia Baoyu, she shouldn't be a concubine?"

Concubine Bei Jing comforted her and said: "Look at how anxious you are, hasn't Jia's mansion agreed yet? That means that the mansion is not very satisfied with this marriage, otherwise what we hear now is 'engagement'." ' instead of 'proposing marriage'?"

Seeing Shui Rong just lowered her head and muttered there, Concubine Bei Jing was both relieved and sighed: Finally, someone can make her son fall in love!Miss Kuanglin is outstanding again, if she can really marry in, she will feel at ease!

Concubine Bei Jing smiled at Shui Rong: "Don't worry, what should we do if we both discuss this matter?"

But it was said that the king of Xining County sent someone to propose a marriage, which was exactly what Jia Zheng expected.Why did Jia Zheng not know that the king of Xining County was more than twice as old as Daiyu, and he was not very willing to take his niece with him.

This day, some matchmakers were sent out again. Jia Zheng returned to the yard with a worried face, and went straight into Mrs. Wang's house.

Mrs. Wang is also distressed at this time, she is afraid that Jia Zheng will take Daiyu to the Beijing Palace, but fortunately no one has come to the Beijing Palace to propose a marriage, it is just the master's wishful thinking.A few days ago, I invited my younger sister to come over for a discussion, and my younger sister thought of an idea to find an opportunity to tell the master that I was very upset, and I don't know if the master would believe me after I told him?

Just as he was thinking about it, Jia Zheng came in with a sullen face. Mrs. Wang hurriedly stood up to pick it up, and Yu Chuaner, who was on the side, also hurriedly served tea, and went out to serve again.

Mrs. Wang carefully asked: "How many families have come to propose marriage? Are there any ones that catch the master's eyes?"

Jia Zheng shook his head and sighed, "They're just mediocre people!"

Mrs. Wang persuaded: "Master, I have been too careful. Who is the Prince of Beijing? You can see someone who has no foundation at all. Now that Miss Kuang's parents are both dead, she is helpless." ?”

When Jia Zheng heard Mrs. Wang's words, he immediately felt disgusted. Why did this woman have such a strong heart, and said: "Why is there no one to rely on? Isn't this mansion Yu'er's home? Although her parents are gone, she still has her grandmother and two uncles, so why can't she make decisions with her?"

Mrs. Wang saw that the master became agitated again, so she had to say: "This concubine is just telling the truth, why should the master be angry, it is not the concubine's fault to make the master become impatient in this hot weather."

After saying that, Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Zheng hummed and didn't say anything more to blame, so she probed and said, "Have you ever heard about it, Master? It's about Princess Beijing?"

Jia Zheng couldn't help saying 'hmm' and asked, "What's the matter?"

Mrs. Wang looked around, pretending to be mysterious and said: "I heard that Princess Beijing died for no apparent reason."

After hearing this, Jia Zheng quickly stood up, glanced out of the window, and then turned around and scolded in a low voice: "What are you talking nonsense? Let people listen, not only you and me, but even the whole house will be implicated!"

Mrs. Wang also whispered: "It's not the concubine's nonsense, it's spread outside, hasn't the master heard about it?"

Jia Zheng said: "I never care about such gossip! Don't make unreasonable comments on things that have no shadow! The concubine in the Beijing Palace is a virtuous concubine and the prince is young and promising. How can they do such things? Why don't you shut up quickly !"

Jia Zheng reprimanded Mrs. Wang in this way, but the truth is that people's words are awesome!Even though Jia Zheng was full of unbelief in his heart, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart?I remembered that Princess Beijing did enter the palace and passed away within three years, and there was no man and half woman left behind. At that time, it was heard that Princess Wang died of an old illness.

But the concubine's natal family didn't care that much about the death of the concubine, and they didn't hear any accusations against the Beijing palace?Why are such words coming out now?How did Jia Zheng know that these words were Aunt Xue's idea to his sister, in order to make Jia Zheng doubtful and give up the idea of ​​marrying Daiyu into the Beijing Palace.

Aunt Xue asked Wan to exhort, these words can only be said to Jia Zheng alone, and no second person should know, because Jia Zheng has always been strict and will never spread it.But if it is known that these words were made up by her, it would be strange not to peel off a layer of her skin!

Mrs. Wang saw that although Jia Zheng scolded herself, she lowered her head and began to meditate. She knew that the method had worked, and she was secretly happy.

Then he hurriedly hit the rails while it was hot: "Master, think about it, the eldest girl has been weak since she was a child, if she is married into the Beijing Palace, and then suffers wronged, to be honest, I don't have to say anything here, but the old lady and you The master is the first to feel distressed, even the younger sister and brother-in-law in the underground have to blame the master!"

Mrs. Wang came over to refill Jia Zheng's tea in person, and then she said with joy: "It's the Xining Princess in the Xining Palace. I have talked to her before, and she is the most generous person. He never beat or scolded when he made a mistake, so he had no choice but to persuade him. If he was fined, he would just copy the scriptures. I heard that the queen mother in the palace knew about it, and said that the method was novel, and it didn't hurt others. I don’t know that Princess Xining is the most virtuous? If Miss Kuang passes away, even though she is a concubine, she doesn’t have the burden of a housekeeper, and she just happens to be raising her health, so why not do it?”

Hearing what Mrs. Wang said, Jia Zheng's nature was extremely pedantic, and he was afraid that he had made a wrong decision on his niece's marriage. I was sorry for the dead sister, and remembered that day when the matchmaker came and praised the king of Xining County like Hua'er It seems that in these years, my mansion has been in contact with Xining Wangfu, and the prince's behavior is still reasonable. Thinking of this, I hesitated again.

How did Jia Zheng know of Mrs. Wang's sinister intentions? In the early years, Daiyu's mother, Jia Min, was loved by everyone in the Jia family before she got married, and Mrs. Wang was even more jealous of this.

Thinking back when Mrs. Wang came in as the new daughter-in-law, her appearance was not outstanding. I thought that I would bring a generous dowry to the door, which would definitely make Jia's family look at me with admiration. Rili put on the airs of a mother-in-law and put on an air of aloofness for herself to see.However, as soon as she saw her precious daughter, she smiled and pampered her blindly, which was really maddening to death!

It was so easy until my sister-in-law got married, I don’t want to think that after a while, this tricky girl came again, and she was angry with her beloved son all day long, but Baoyu was willing to listen to her, and she passed out a few days ago I came here with my head and begged him to marry this girl, 'Bah! 'Dream your mother's big head!

Mrs. Wang was originally a narrow-minded person, because she was jealous of Jia Min back then, she had evil thoughts in her heart, but now she is determined to make Daiyu her concubine, and she also expresses her anger in her heart!

Jia Zheng pondered for a while, raised his head, and said to Mrs. Wang, "Is Yu'er in good health now? The old lady is very tired from this illness. I heard that she will go to the old age with illness every day." Where does the wife serve and take medicine?"

Mrs. Wang hurriedly laughed and said: "In terms of filial piety, the two girls in the garden are not as good as the big girl!"

Jia Zheng said: "She is still weak. How can she bother so much? You should persuade her in normal times. If she gets tired again, what should I do?"

Mrs. Wang responded with a smile: "Master told me to remember it, but there are always bird's nests in Missy's place every day!"

Jia Zheng listened and nodded in praise, "Now that the old lady is sick, you should miss her more."

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Where is the concubine's body? It's actually a hairpin! The concubine's body has been working hard these days and has been sick for a few days. The master knows, but he forgot the bird's nest from the eldest girl. Originally, the old lady I ordered them to be sent every day, who would have thought of so many things, fortunately, Bao girl thought about it and asked someone to send a lot from her to the eldest girl, which saved my heart."

Jia Zheng felt at ease when he heard this, and thought that although Baochai didn't look very smart, he was kind-hearted. He also heard from Mrs. Wang that she would persuade Baoyu to study every time she saw Baoyu. People rest assured.

Then he nodded his head slightly and said, "It's really embarrassing for Bao girl!"

Mrs. Wang caught a glimpse of the inadvertent praise in Jia Zheng's eyes, and she was very happy, and said in her heart: "It's really a blessing from the Bodhisattva! Let the disciple be happy!"

Just outside the door, Yu Chuan'er came in and reported back: "Master, Ma'am, there is a message from the front. People from the Beijing Palace said that it was Princess Beijing who came to visit, and the sedan chair was almost at the gate of the residence."

Then Jia Zheng stood up with a 'huh' and said loudly, "Please hurry up!"

Jia Zheng knew that Shui Rong was a human being, and because of the Bei Mansion's patronage to Jia's mansion a few days ago, he was even more concerned about Shui Rong.Now hearing that Concubine Bei Jing passed the mansion in person, I was overjoyed, so I rushed to the front to greet her.

Mrs. Wang hurriedly called Jia Zheng and said, "Master, please think again! If the master hastily agreed to the Beijing Palace, then the Xining Palace is not easy to mess with! Don't forget, Master, the concubine Li in the palace is the cousin of Princess Xining." Woolen cloth!"

After hearing Mrs. Wang's words, Jia Zheng couldn't help but stop, and couldn't help feeling worried.Mrs. Wang came over and whispered a few words into Jia Zheng's ear, and then sighed: "The concubine's words are all for our family, why don't you slow down and think of a perfect plan. No one in the two houses should be offended. That’s right. Now that we don’t have a concubine as a backer in the palace, we have to think about everything before making a decision!”

Jia Zheng couldn't help slowing down his pace again, and waited for Madam Wang to come to the mansion together, but it happened that Princess Beijing's sedan chair just arrived, and he hurriedly greeted him and paid respects before taking him to the mansion.

That Concubine Beijing didn't meander when she spoke, after a few pleasantries, she bluntly told Jia Zheng that she wanted to marry Daiyu as Princess Beijing.
