The Honest Man of the Red Chamber

Wang Guizhi woke up from a nap, quickly took out her brochure and opened it to read. If Jia Zheng is really appointed to Shanxi, then her work plan for this year will also be adjusted accordingly.

The first thing is to find a way to get Jia Mu and Jia Zheng to agree to let her go to Shanxi with the children.Yes, it is inconvenient to travel in this era, but because it is inconvenient, you have to overcome all difficulties to do it, especially like Yuan Chun and her, maybe just once!

Besides, what is the use of earning so much money and supporting so many servants!Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while.

Even if she wants to leave the capital in a big way, she will do it once.

After all, opportunities are once in a lifetime, the whole family will travel to Shanxi!

If you are afraid of making a fool of yourself, you can first let some people pass in the name of Bowei Building, the Shanxi branch of Zhenwei Pavilion... Alas, Caiyun is getting married, otherwise she will be able to use it smoothly, um, I just need to think about her side These older maids, if they have a marriage, they can't delay them, and if they don't want to go, they should ask.After all, once you take up the post, it doesn’t count the time to come and go. It will take three years to calculate a safe transition. If it is not warm, you may have to be re-elected. You have to be cautious about personnel deployment...

How can I persuade Mother Jia?As long as the old lady is willing, Jia Zheng has four or five chances of success...

Traveling outside, unlike modern times, you only need to bring your mobile phone and money, and you have to bring enough money, but if you bring too much money, what will you do if there are thieves and robbers? As in the acting, sitting in a sedan chair, is there any avoidance sign held up?It would be much safer if it were possible.Those who dare to commit such crimes must be desperate desperadoes, and the number and probability are very small.It seems that I still have to ask my sister-in-law to arrange a caravan for her to go on the road together, so that I can take care of her.

It seems to be quite cold in Shanxi, so we should prepare the children's winter clothes now...

It would be great if there was an automatic pen. Wang Guizhi was afraid that she would not think carefully about all the things at once. The brush is still troublesome for her. Small characters can easily become a mess. If you are in a hurry and write in a hurry, you will not be able to see anything when you look back...

She tried the black ink that was given to her thrush, but it was too soft.

"Ma'am, what are you doing with the eyebrow pencil? Do you want to draw your eyebrows?"

Wang Guizhi didn't ask anyone to come into the house to serve her, Sancai was busy with what she was doing at hand, Caixia just came back, she came in quietly, and saw her wife took the conch Dai from the makeup box, she didn't know what was going on .

"It's too soft to write."

Wang Guizhi murmured, Caixia laughed when she heard it, "Ma'am, do you want to use this kind of pen to write? I remember that the old lady kept a few of them wrapped in silver walls. It is this kind of thing. It seems to be from some country before. The king sent it to the emperor, saying it was something for painting, and the Duke of the country also received this reward." She thought for a while, if it wasn't for the fact that the wife was in charge of the warehouse to check the things before, and when she counted them, she held them up to the old lady and asked, saying Maybe she didn't know what it was either.

"Does Madam want it? How about I ask the old lady for one for you?" It's rare for the madam to ask for something, and Caixia knows about it, and besides, the old lady keeps it, and it's not worth money. No one else is using it, so I keep it for nothing, "I just don't know if it's been so long, can I still use it?"

It is made of graphite, it is said that it can be stored for thousands of years, her bones are turned into ashes, maybe they are still there, Wang Guizhi nodded, "Okay. Well, let the kitchen make a white sugar cake and custard buns first. , take some snacks to ask for."

Caixia smiled, "My wife is too careful." What is it worth, something the old lady can't even remember.But she was vigilant again, the wife is more generous than the old lady, but the rules can't be wrong at all.

She first asked the little girl to go to the kitchen to send a message to make snacks, and then she told her wife about sending the foreign silk, "I heard that the old lady said that she would teach the older girl to make needle money, and the older girl didn't like it at first, so the old lady said It is said that the eldest girl is the boss, and she has to set an example for the younger sisters, and other girls know it well, so it is hard for her not to learn. The eldest girl said that she only studies for half an hour a day." She was careful when she saw his wife was writing and listening. Add a sentence, "I also asked Mother Gu, why did you teach the elder girl to behave again, be careful that the wife will punish you if she finds out. But she said, even if the wife knows, she will agree, otherwise why would she be put in the elder girl's place?" As for her side, since she knows it's good for the eldest girl, if she doesn't talk about it or teach her, she will lose her duty as a servant."

Wang Guizhi put down his pen, put his hands behind his back and thought, if he only learns sewing for half an hour a day, it's not wrong. For girls these days, it's almost like men need to study.She raised her daughter in her previous life, and she didn't stop her from practicing the piano every day just because she likes to play!If you don't teach your children anything, you're doing them a disservice.

It's just that what Gu Momo said was beautiful, and what she did was right, but why did she feel that something was wrong?

Wang Guizhi thought about it again, but he didn't know what was wrong. He thought that Nanny Gu was a nanny who came out of the palace, that is to say, even the princess and others had to pay for needles.

"Caixia, I remember that there is a girl named Pearl in the old lady's room. She is very good at needlework, isn't she?"

Caixia nodded.

"Well, in this way, when you go to ask the old lady for something, just mention it to the lady, let the eldest girl learn needle money from Pearl. Just as the eldest girl said, for half an hour a day, just in front of the old lady Learning, when, it’s up to the girls to decide.” Let’s treat it as an extra-curricular study, one hour.

Caixia wrote it down, after a while the kitchen brought the snacks, and she led them to Rongqing Hall.

After a while Li Wan and Yuan Chun both came to accompany her for dinner, Wang Guizhi said to Li Wan, "How is Zhu Er? Although I want him to try to end, don't work too hard, or you'll be exhausted by the time." Health comes first.

Li Wan sat at the bottom, stood up after hearing this, and replied, "At present, the uncle is resting in the outer study. In addition to letting him go out for ten thousand steps every day, I also always ask the boys to let him go every hour. Ask the uncle to get up and walk around to refresh himself, and say that you are not allowed to stay up late with candles when it gets dark, but..."

"I'm just afraid that he won't listen."

Wang Guizhi thought that when Jia Zhu came back from Lin Ruhai, he devoted himself to taking the imperial examination, and he didn't know what Uncle Lin told him, which made his student's heart ache, almost like a college entrance examination.

At this time, it is not good to discourage the child's self-motivated learning, Wang Guizhi said, "Then you should pay more attention to his diet, you can study hard, and you are not allowed to read books while eating. You will eat with him in the future and watch him eat. Well, take a walk every day." Wanbu is very good, and I will continue to maintain it in the future. If you let him practice the Wu Qinxi of Doctor Zhang, you can practice it too. It is a good thing to exercise your muscles and bones more." Wang Guizhi smiled and said, "I can give birth to such a baby smoothly. A few good boys are due to frequent activities on weekdays, have you all written them down?"

Li Wan's eyes widened when he heard this, no wonder his wife walked around a lot.

"Yes!"

Yuan Chun covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled at Li Wan, knowing that her mother was speaking to her sister-in-law.

"Go, take this pigeon soup and go with him, as long as I have your eldest sister here." Wang Guizhi added another dish of stir-fried soybean sprouts.

Li Wan blushed and should have left.

Wang Guizhi glanced at the calm and respectful Nanny Gu, "I heard that Nanny Gu's needlework is very bright?"

"Don't dare, Master Meng can see it."

Gu Nai took a step forward and said.

"In this case, my eldest girl, I will borrow your nanny to come over for a while, and let her help me make two sets of clothes to wear when I am out of confinement, okay?" Wang Guizhi saw that she looked quite honest, so she was not sure. It's weird, so let's separate first.

Yuan Chun naturally agreed, "Okay, Grandma Gu is especially good at embroidering lace. She knows more than a dozen styles. What kind of clothes does mother want to make?"

"Then let Nanny Gu do the same for us, okay? It just so happens that Grain Grain Festival will be here soon, and the old lady always likes to be lively, so there will definitely be a flower party."

"Okay, mother, don't choose materials like scarlet and peach red. There are already two of them. Let's try using colors like sapphire blue and bright orange this time."

"Okay, the fabric your aunt sent looks like a golden and bright yellow..." The most noble color in this dynasty is purple, and as long as it is on the five-clawed golden dragon or five-clawed golden phoenix, there is no need to shy away from it.

When we returned to Rongqingtang, Jia's mother pulled her up and said, "My son, your mother said that you want to learn some needlework? It is serious. I have asked them to get some materials and put them in the west room of the flower hall to pack them up. There are The glass mirror is bright and bright. There are also flowers and trees, you can stitch a few needles and watch the flowers feed the birds without hurting your eyes."

What foreign paintbrush do you want?It's not because she is thinking about her children, but because she is too old to pay attention, Yuanchun is already eleven, so she should learn some needle money seriously, just studying, playing the piano and drawing pictures is not enough.

Yuan Chun hurriedly responded, "The old lady really loves me!"

Mother Jia hugged her and stroked her. This was the girl she had seen growing up since she was a child. "If I don't love you, who will I love?" Calling Pearl to kowtow to Yuan Chun, "This is the pearl in my house. Her mother knows how to do needlework from the very beginning, so I will give her to you." She pointed to Pearl and said, "If you follow the girl, call it Yinxiu, and teach the girl well in the future, understand?"

Yinxiu hurriedly said, "Yes."

Because Jia Zhu was going to take the exam to study, the teachers in Jia's house took care of her, and Mrs. Li asked Jia Lian to watch, so the time to leave school was later than Yuanchun.

At this time, I came to say hello to Mother Jia. Seeing that the eldest sister was making out with the old lady, she squatted down and bowed indiscriminately, then leaned into Mother Jia's arms, "The old lady loves me too!"

Jia Mu laughed, "You monkey, where did you come from? Have you eaten yet?"

Jia Lian and Yuan Chun are both used to each other, "I just came from the study outside and haven't eaten yet. My husband just left time and went back. Brother Zhu has his sister-in-law to accompany me to eat, so I came over. The old lady will reward me quickly." eat."

"We've already eaten, Yiren, bring him some dim sum." Jia's mother stroked Brother Lian's face, "Your mother must be waiting for you to eat."

Although Yuanchun was going to accompany the second daughter-in-law for dinner, Mother Jia still had a sister-in-law here, Brother Rong, and she still ate regularly so as not to hurt her spleen and stomach.

But the cook over there sometimes does not cook as well as here!

Jia Lian saw the custard buns brought up in a blink of an eye, and was immediately happy. After the girl cleaned his hands, he took one and ate it. It was soft and sweet, "Give me the rest."

"Give it to you."

Children and grandchildren begging for things like this, which old man would not be happy to give it.

Yuan Chun went back to the room, Baoqin hurriedly came up to undress her, seeing that her expression was wrong, "What's the matter, big girl?"

"……nothing."

I'm just a little confused, why did my mother transfer Gu Momo away?If Mammy Gu was wrong in persuading her to do needlework, then the old lady sent her a girl who learned needlework.Since it is true, why...

Baoqin thought that the eldest girl was tired. After all, she got up in the morning to walk and practice calligraphy, and she also had to read books like the young men. She added another needle and thread, and said, "The hot water in the bathroom has been prepared, and the eldest girl can take a shower." sleep early."

"Ah."

If you don't understand, you can ask your mother tomorrow. Yuan Chun then thought, Lian's birthday is coming soon, and she made dolls for Baoyu and Meiyu, so it's not good to miss him, so I just let Zhen—— Yinxiu took her to do that first.
