Stealing Fragrance and Stealing Jade in the Red Chamber
Chapter 20 Parting Entrustment, Going South to Jinling
After Sanchun and Mother Jia had dinner, they went to her room with Sister-in-law Zhu.
"What's the matter, came to my room suddenly?" Li Wan was still a little curious, it was getting late, but Sanchun was going to her place.
"It's not Brother Lang, who said that everyone would have a lot of fun at night, and that our place is too small, so he told us to go to your place to make trouble." Yingchun held Li Wan's hand, looking so charming and lively.
"Look, it's good to have a good brother, and now he's more agile." Looking at Yingchun's childish appearance, Li Wan couldn't bear to tease him.
"Sister-in-law, you should answer quickly, or we will all come to trouble you." Tan Chun also held Li Wan's arm.
"Okay, okay, I'll greet you with good wine and food." Li Wan took Sanchun back to her residence.
Immediately ordered the servant girl to start setting the table and dishes. The kitchen heard that the three girls and Jia Lang were going to eat here, and brought a few more dishes over.
As soon as it was set up, I heard the voice of the servant girl saluting Jia Lang.
After Jia Lang came in, everyone took their seats after greeting each other.
"It's just me, the three younger sisters, sister-in-law Zhu, and second sister-in-law Lian will come in a quarter of an hour. Don't be nervous, it's not a big deal." Just as Jia Lang was talking, Yuliu and Sangzhu led the maids. The mother-in-law is all guarding outside the door.
"Now, I'm getting older, and the girls are getting older too. It's not good to run into the girl's boudoir anymore. It's not good for the girl's reputation. However, the weekly lectures will not stop, you three, I will find you when I come back Be lazy, but be careful.
At that time, if anyone regresses, there is no gift, and if there is fun in the future, I will not take you. Jia Lang immediately said to Sanchun pretending to be a strict teacher.
"Got it, got it." Sanchun was not afraid of Jia Lang, and immediately replied with a charming smile.
Seeing their appearance, Jia Lang shook his head helplessly.
"Thinking that I will be gone for half a year, there must be some people in this family who are going to be uneasy. Even An Sheng, you don't have any money in your hands, and you can't do anything if you want to.
Don't be hypocritical, take all of this money, this is the heart of being a brother and brother, don't let it down. "Jia Lang personally distributed the red envelopes respectively.
"Here, my sister-in-law can't ask for it. In the past few years, you can give it away vigorously. My sister-in-law has a monthly payment, and the old lady and the wife have never treated me badly." Li Wan quickly refused. It is not appropriate to accept this money. rule.
"They didn't treat you badly, but you have Lan'er, the monthly allowance is limited, even if you want to buy a few more books for Lan'er, you can't do it.
Family, what is your nature? I have only seen people asking for money, but I have never seen people who give money and don't want it.Sister-in-law just keep it, Lan'er will have a future in the future, and she will return even more. "
Jia Lang gave Li Wan the most, because she was a widow with a child, and Sang Zhu was on the side to help put the money in Li Wan's hands.
"Take it, the third master has already prepared it, and he is so impatient, he just waits to distribute all the money today." Yuliu also persuaded from the side, making everyone laugh.
"Hey, sister-in-law, I'm really ashamed." Li Wan felt a little embarrassed.
"Don't be ashamed of it. If you are ashamed of it, what should we do? We can't refuse it. That's not okay. If I don't have money, how can I invite you to come and have fun next time?" Tanchun was still the first to tease, which provoked everyone He laughed even more.
"Okay, I'll give it to you. If anyone loses, I can't lose yours." Jia Lang now also likes Tanchun's temperament, which was originally selfish and utilitarian, but now it has changed a lot.
Although Tanchun has some scheming, he is not the type to harm others.And she is like this, so that other sisters can learn three points, enter the world of mortals, and don't be a talent outside the day.
"You don't need to save this money for me. I'll be single, and I won't give it to anyone. You should keep this money carefully, and be careful when you use it.
The ancestors and wives don't know about this money, so don't mention it, I gave you this money for fun.I will give it in front of the second sister-in-law later, it is specially for you girls to reward the girls,
If you do well, you will be rewarded. If you do not do well, tell your second sister-in-law to buy you another one.Yuliu went to call them in. "
Yuliu called all six first-class maids in.
"Some of you are newcomers, and some of you are old people who have been there for several years. I, Mr. Jia, has a rule, and I don't know if you are clear about it." Jia Lang looked at the maids with a cold front.
"I know." The six first-class maidservants kept saluting postures, not daring to get up.
"That's good. It will take me half a year to come back from Jinling this time. If I hear something when I come back, I will sell you all to the Shanxi Coal Mine, and let you see how the people I served before are doing well.
I think you will spend the rest of your life digging coal, so you will be able to be honest. " Jia Lang threatened.
"We will take good care of the girl, and we dare not slack off in the slightest." The maids all knelt down neatly.
"If you do a good job, I will naturally reward you. I have already told you girls that each of you will get one tael of silver later, so that you will be happy and motivated to do things.
When I come back from Jinling, I will double the reward when I hear the girls praise you. " Jia Lang waved his hand, full of pride.
"Thank you, Third Master." The maids kowtowed in unison.
"Okay, let's get up." After Jia Lang finished training, he also became cheerful.
As soon as he finished speaking, the maid outside shouted that Lian's second grandma was here.
"Hey, you're here early, just wait for me." Wang Xifeng said with a smile as he watched the crowd drinking tea.
Now the life is going more smoothly, and she is also more forgiving.
"The last one, why don't you hurry up and have a drink to make amends." Jia Lang smiled and toasted Wang Xifeng with a glass of wine.
"Okay, fine, fine, just one cup." Wang Xifeng happily took one sip.
After everyone sat down, Jia Lang went on to talk.
"The girls in front of you, I have already punished you a little bit, and you have to come up with your own methods in the future. If there is anything, I will support you.
I want to eat and drink, I am here, send someone to find me.I'm not here, so I'll send money here, my second sister-in-law, and I'll be able to arrange it for you. " Jia Lang said narrowly.
Wang Xifeng laughed loudly, raised her hand, and made a gesture to hit Jia Lang.
"I plan to come back after the list is released. It may take half a year. I will leave everything about the maidservant to you, my sister-in-law. What my sister looked like when she left, she must look like when she comes back." Jia Lang respected Wang Xifeng with a glass of wine.
"Okay, my sister-in-law promises you that I won't let my younger sisters suffer any grievances. If you tell them to lose a single hair, you'll beat me later." Wang Xifeng readily agreed.
A few maids and women, Wang Xifeng can't take care of them.What's more, the people serving the girl now have no foundation at all, so they can be dismissed at will.
"Then please leave it to my sister-in-law. Sangzhu, share what I have prepared with everyone.
Second sister-in-law, this one belongs to Huan'er, I won't be able to pass it after all, you can give it to Huan'er after I leave.
I only have a heart, and I don't ask for anything in return. Let Aunt Zhao buy some of the Four Treasures of the Study for Huan'er, or read more books, so that I can have a chance to succeed in the future.
Don't give him this precious jade, he will spend it on those girls. When you drink and have fun in the future, you can just pay him a share of the money.
Also, sister Xiangyun just left and didn't catch up, and she is expected to come again in a month or two. You also give this to her, and ask her not to tell Baoyu, so that Baoyu will not be annoyed when she hears that he hasn't.
Let's make some more clothes for sister Xiangyun. The last time I saw her clothes were a bit worn out. Both parents died. It's probably because the house is a bit neglected.
That's all I'm going to say, you guys get together for a while and talk, then let's break up, don't make trouble too late. " Jia Lang chattered all the words, and as soon as he cupped his hands, he was about to leave.
The girls were not willing to let him go, they said a few words of blessing before letting Jia Lang go.
Jia Lang got up early the next morning and left.
Because the letter was delivered first, when Jia Lang got off the boat, he saw people from the Lin family waiting by the roadside.
Lin's mansion is on the bank of this water. Jia Lang got off the boat and was embraced by his mother-in-law and young servants into the mansion.
Now the coffin has been suspended in the mansion for six days, and the mansion is covered with white banners.There was a strong sense of sadness in the mansion, and the servants were also crying, and the whole Lin mansion was in a mess.
Jia Lang first went to burn incense on Jia Min's spiritual tablet, and bowed down.
I went to see Lin Ruhai again, and saw that he was already sick in bed, and there was no one to take care of him at home.So he and Lin Ruhai brought up the matter of acting as an agent, but Lin Ruhai couldn't get up, so he asked Jia Lang if he could.Seeing Jia Lang's young age, he was a little worried.
But on the second day, Jia Lang took care of the whole house. Although the servants complained a lot, Lin Ruhai wanted to clap his hands and applaud them when he thought about their messes.
It wasn't until after two seven days that his family was left to observe their filial piety, that Jia Lang went to see Lin Ruhai again and told Jia Mu what he wanted.
"The old lady misses her aunt very much, and often talks about it. When she was in the cabinet, she loved her very much and did not leave others' hands in everything.
Now that I hear that my aunt has an only daughter, I feel pity even more, and want to see Sister Lin, after all, I have some support in my heart.
Moreover, the old ancestors are still energetic now, and the Rongguo Mansion is still quite prosperous, and it will be able to help Sister Lin a little when she gets married in the future. "
Lin Ruhai also has this idea, as the saying goes, if you don't marry the eldest daughter of a bereaved mother, you are afraid that your family will not be well educated.He has only one daughter now, who has been like a jewel since she was a child, and he does not want his daughter to get married in the future.
After all, this old lady is the wife of the Duke, and she also has a mandate, it is better to keep her by her side than by her own.
Looking at the young man standing tall and straight in front of him, Lin Ruhai had heard his wife say it before.
He also studied at Qinfeng Academy, and Master Chen also taught him.He benefited a lot from the teachings he received back then.
Hearing Jia Lang's words, he spoke well, neither arrogant nor humble, and he was also a young and talented man.Even if they are relatives, and they feel that the teacher is from the same school, they will inevitably get close to each other.
"What's the matter, came to my room suddenly?" Li Wan was still a little curious, it was getting late, but Sanchun was going to her place.
"It's not Brother Lang, who said that everyone would have a lot of fun at night, and that our place is too small, so he told us to go to your place to make trouble." Yingchun held Li Wan's hand, looking so charming and lively.
