The Honest Man of the Red Chamber

Seeing that Wang Guizhi was distracted, Jia Zhu didn't know what to think of. Seeing her mother's chin getting sharper these days, she felt a little sore, "Mom, you can tell your son anything you want!" He used to think that studying hard and getting a good name would make his mother happy, but now it seems that there is only one sentence to describe it.

——I hope that the child will be foolish and unruly, and come to Gongqing without any disasters or difficulties.

"I told you that you did a good job. I'm very happy." What can she say, she can't say that people treat me too well, I think something is wrong, Wang Guizhi looked at the clock, "Today's old lady I took my eldest wife out to meet friends, so you can call your sister and daughter-in-law over and have dinner in my room." For those unreasonable things, let's not think about them for the time being, and having fun with the children is the right thing to do.

"Okay." Jia Zhu nodded.

Wang Guizhi thought about the fresh mushrooms he had just brought, "You can pack them in such small baskets and leave them for the old lady, uncle and wife, and send some to the East Mansion. If there are any, I will give them to you." Send a basket to your uncle's house and your wife's family, just let them try something new."

"Okay, mother, there are quite a few of these things that can be picked in batches." Jia Zhu said, "Why don't we sell some." This thing must be fresh, and it should be able to sell for a price.It was rare in the mountains, and it is rare that it is so neat and beautiful, and it has not been stained with any soil.

"I don't know how much can be produced for the time being. Is it the same every time? I just use it to add to the gift." The product is still unstable and cannot be put into the market.

Jia Zhu thought it made sense, "What mother said is true."

"Come on, I'll let the kitchen do the cooking." For the convenience of privileged people, Wang Guizhi felt disgusted eating lard, and got the soybean oil and peanut oil squeezed by others, so he sent Caifeng to watch the cooking in the kitchen, Let’s start with a vegetable stewed mushroom, wash it and squeeze out the water, pour a little soybean oil on the hot pot, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, then stew the mushroom with a little salt, they are not allowed to add anything else.There are also a few other dishes she ordered, and no lard is allowed. Although the lard is delicious, it is a bit greasy after eating for a long time.

Jia Zhu wrote a famous post outside and sent the boys to deliver fresh mushrooms, but after thinking about it, Wang Guizhi felt that this was not a decent thing, so she took a small jar and filled it with pickled pepper chicken feet and peanuts that she made herself. The dumpling shop's business is really good, and she took care of the kitchen, otherwise she wouldn't have got so many chicken feet, and that's it, she had to put some peanuts, otherwise I'm afraid there won't be enough.

I gave some to outsiders, and I naturally have them on my table. Yuan Chun loves this flavor, but she is afraid of spicy food, so she rinsed it with tea and ate it, but there was still a hint of spicy taste, which only made her little mouth swollen.

Wang Guizhi looked at her and felt that all the unhappiness had disappeared, so she wiped the little girl's mouth with a handkerchief, "Little greedy cat, next time I will ask them to put less spicy peppers, just for you to eat, quickly put that away." .”

Jia Zhu and Li Wan each picked one up and tasted it, they were not very interested, only the taste was special, it was full of bones and only bits of meat, Li Wan liked the mushroom stewed with garlic, and thought it was extra sweet.

"I also sent a basket to your family. If the family likes it, I will send it later."

Wang Guizhi restrained Jia Zhu's daily reading time, and told the maids around him not to be mischievous. They often went out to run errands, and took care of the money directly with Li Wan.

Li Wan was very grateful. Her family was from a scholarly family. Although she had a dowry, she didn't have much money. If her mother hadn't sent money... Although she had Jia Zhu and her own monthly allowance, those were not enough. make.

After the first wife took care of some housework, her life became easier.

"Thank you for thinking about it." She looked at Jia Zhu tenderly, turned her head, and saw the wife joking with the eldest girl Yuan Chun, so she also joked, "What joke did the wife say, let us listen too."

Wang Guizhi was talking about what she knew about Emperor Kangxi, and she just wanted to remind the girl that the harem was not good for her.Since they wanted to hear it too, seeing that everyone had finished eating, they washed their hands and mouths, let them sit down, and just listened, then they started talking, "I don't know when it happened, I just said that the young emperor He ascended to the throne at the age of eight, and the previous emperor left behind four ministers who cared about his fate. One was a fool, and he fell to whichever side he saw was stronger. The ministers all obeyed, and there was another one who had been fighting with the man who held the military power for many years, and always wanted to fight in court. The son emperor was about to turn sixteen, and he was expected to be in charge. The empress dowager invited him to ask him, which minister would he marry? Daughter to be queen..."

The story was thrilling and it sounded so interesting that even the woman who opened the curtain was so fascinated by it that she didn't even notice that Jia Zheng had come.

Jia Zheng didn't let anyone disturb him, and went into the east door by himself.

The madam was half sitting and half leaning on the back of the big red money python on the big kang facing the window, wearing a homely light as blue and broken white flower jacket, holding the azurite money python pillow in her hand, and she was telling stories in a smooth voice, which was very expensive. He looked like a madam, but seeing her serious appearance, he thought about how to make her hum under him.

Seeing his sons and daughters sitting aside, Jia Zheng didn't want to disturb him, so he sat on a chair facing west. Strange to say, his wife's appearance didn't change much, but she seemed to have lost weight since the last time she got sick. Did not raise it back.The original slightly square face was sharpened. She was delicate and fair-skinned. With just a slight frown, he felt that she seemed to be a completely different person.

Especially when it comes to the bed matter, not to mention that she felt that she had changed her gender, even Jia Zheng himself didn't quite understand why it happened like this.

That kitten-like coquettish humming is like scratching his heart, especially her eyes always seem to be on fire, burning brightly, like a flame hiding under an iceberg, and seems to be gushing out. He is looking forward to her. Thinking about what he would do, Jia Zheng became very excited.

"The temptation of power is more poisonous than arsenic. Then Oboi let the people around him brag, and he felt more and more talented and majestic. Since the emperor was young, why didn't he let him sit by himself..." Wang Guizhi fundamentally She didn't find Jia Zheng, she was afraid that what she said was not clear enough, so she put all her heart and soul into remembering and telling the story.

And the more Jia Zheng listened, the more he felt that this happened around the emperor a long time ago!How did Madam know this kind of deep palace secrets!

Thinking of this, he didn't let the girl who served the tea make a sound, and listened quietly, while comparing and confirming what he knew.

Although there are some places where the time and names of people are all wrong, but when things continue, what Madam said is like being there.If so, it's no wonder Madam always stood up to him in the past. The Wang family even knew the secrets of the royal family. It can be seen that the emperor's kindness is so close, and it is common sense to look down on others.

The prince Teng sent two people to strictly investigate his servants, did the emperor reveal something?Thinking about it again, when Madam came back from avoiding going out, she said that her accompanying room caused trouble, the excuse was to block Zhu'er's face, causing disturbances in both Rongning and Ningfu, no one did not know...

Well, for such a big person, it is impossible to change at will. It seems that there is really something big, but why doesn't Madam say anything to him?

Jia Zheng couldn't help looking at Wang Guizhi, seeing that she was wearing the pearl earrings he gave her, trembling and undulating slightly with her movements, mouth dry, and picked up the tea in hand.No matter how smart she is, she is still a woman after all, some small loves make her so left-handed.See if he doesn't clean up her at night, let her know what a husband is Tian Gang.

Sitting in the carriage, Jia Mu sighed softly.Looking at Mrs. Li who was covering her face with a handkerchief and crying, she still comforted, "You don't have to worry too much. Since there is no news, it's not the worst news."

Mrs. Li burst into tears, her father was arrested, and the family lost a lot of money without knowing what happened, and even where she was locked up. How can this not be worrying!She is afraid that everyone in the Li family, all, all...

Seeing the eldest daughter-in-law crying like this, Mother Jia couldn't feel better, but she did her best to lead her out to find out the news. The Jia family of the two prefectures.I don't even know that I committed a crime, even if it is my own daughter-in-law, I can't rush to give others a knife.

If you can get a little information from the princess of Nan'an County or the wife of the Duke of Zhiguo, and know what kind of wind is blowing above, you can also watch and plan.If it can be settled by paying money, she will definitely help, but if it is something else... Sigh...

"Old lady, old lady..." Mrs. Li panicked as if she had fallen into the abyss, so she had to hug Jia Mu, a piece of driftwood. Her mother's family lost power, but the old lady was still loving, so she still had a place.
