The Fate of the Red Chamber

Chapter 56: Press Up

Soon, it was time to visit the Jiaofang.On this day, Mrs. Wang is the proudest, proudest and most glorious day. She is dressed in imperial costumes, full of jewels, and enters the palace beaming to greet Yuan Chun.

When she came back that day, she didn't have time to go back to her yard to change clothes, so Mrs. Wang rushed to Jiamu's yard in a hurry.

As soon as Jia Mu saw that Mrs. Wang came over without changing her clothes, she knew something was wrong. She thought it was Yuan Chun who had ordered something, so she waved away the servants who were serving her, and then said, "It's good for your mother to be in the palace. What can I say today?" Do not come back?"

"Old lady, my mother knew that our house was in danger, so she instructed us to borrow money from the Lin family." Mrs. Wang was very proud, she was really dozed off, and someone handed her a pillow. She was worried about this, but she didn't expect her to bring it up.

"Bah, you bastard, don't think that I don't know your dirty thoughts. My lady has lived in the deep palace for a long time, so how did she know about the outside affairs? It's not you who provoked her, don't even think about it. Don't even think about it. Sheng Chong, what good fruit do you have if you offend them at this time." Jia Mu was trembling with anger, not because she didn't want to get the Lin family's property, but now is not the time, and she was even more angry because she was not dead yet, and Wang's He wanted to cover the sky with one hand and pressure the empress to deal with him.

Mrs. Wang didn't want Jia's mother to be so angry. She panicked for a while, fell to the ground with a thump, and cried in her mouth: "Old lady, my daughter-in-law is wronged. How dare I bother my mother with this kind of thing, it is the mother's own words. Wife At that time, I also felt that it was inappropriate, and I was afraid that it would hurt the empress if it spread, but the empress said, this is what the empress dowager meant. The old lady has learned a lot."

Jia Mu was full of anger, but when she heard the word "Queen Dowager" suddenly, she forgot when she was angry, and stared at Wang in a daze, in disbelief.After a while, Fang lowered his voice and asked, "Tell me in detail, what's going on?"

"Old lady, my daughter-in-law went to pay her respects and said that she was going to build a prospering garden at home to receive her. The empress asked about the money, and the daughter-in-law didn't think it was necessary to hide it from the empress. To tell the truth. The empress mentioned the generations of the Lin family. , several generations of single pass, the family has a lot of property, and they are all relatives, so it’s okay to borrow one or two. The daughter-in-law is afraid that this matter will be spread out and hit our Duke’s face, and the empress will not look good, so she is a little hesitant. The empress said, The day before yesterday, when she went to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager deliberately mentioned the relationship between our family Jianyuanzi and the Lin family. It seemed that she asked our family to go to the Lin family to ask for a loan. How dare the empress dowager refute her intentions, so she told her daughter-in-law This matter, old lady, what my daughter-in-law said is true, and I will never lie to the old lady."

Mother Jia was astonished when she heard this. This was actually what the Queen Mother meant. Didn't the Queen Mother value the Lin family very much? She even gave such a precious gift to her son Daiyu on her birthday.what on earth is it?For such a big event, Mrs. Wang would not dare to lie, it must be true.

Could it be that the Empress Dowager had always had the Lin family's idea in mind, the raid on the Lin mansion that day was not a misunderstanding at all, but a plan that had been planned long ago, and she temporarily stopped thinking about it because of the late emperor's edict.In other words, the Queen Mother didn't really give power to the Lin family at all, but just to keep them in Beijing, and now she wants to use her own hands to seize the Lin family's property?If this is the case, in order to keep the Jia family, the only way to sacrifice the Lin family is to sacrifice Daiyu.

But Daiyu is her granddaughter after all, the daughter of her only daughter, how can she be worthy of her dead daughter by doing what she does, and how can she explain to her in the future.

Yu'er, don't blame the old lady for being cruel, there is nothing the old lady can do, the queen mother means that we can resist, if you want to blame, blame your Lin family for offending the queen mother that day.Although you are my granddaughter, you are no match for the descendants of the Jia family, let alone trouble the empress in the palace for you.

What's ridiculous is that Mother Jia pushed all this on the queen mother's head, never thinking that she thought so in her own heart.

Jia Mu leaned quietly on the sandalwood bench carved with colorful phoenix peonies, and gently stroked the Canaan incense wood inlaid golden blessing number beads on her wrist, without saying a word for a long time.Mrs. Wang was afraid that Mother Jia would turn her anger on her, so she knelt tremblingly, not daring to lift her head, so she ignored the sneer that flashed in Mother Jia's eyes.

"Get up, it's no fault of yours. After being tired for half a day, go back and have a rest." Although Jia Mu's tone was a bit sad and troubled, if you listen carefully, you can still find a trembling inside.

Mrs. Wang didn't want it to end so soon. It turned out that the old lady was only good-looking, but she was old and useless after all.After kneeling for a long time, it was unavoidable that she would shake a little when she got up. Mrs. Wang managed to stabilize her body, and she didn't dare to say more, so she resigned.Just as he was walking to the door, he suddenly heard the old lady behind him sigh a long way: "You send someone to Miss Feng's place, and just say to prepare some of Miss Lin's favorite food. Let's go and see Miss Lin tomorrow."

Wang turned around and listened carefully, her body shook suddenly, and she looked up at the old lady in disbelief. The old lady agreed, and she agreed.In the past, she loved Miss Lin so much and never forgot her, but she changed her sex so quickly. She is worthy of standing in this noble courtyard for decades without falling down.Wang shi suppressed the trembling in her heart, and obediently agreed, before retreating again.

As soon as Sister Feng heard Jin Chuan'er talking back and forth beside Mrs. Wang, she guessed what the old ladies and wives were thinking, and her teeth turned cold.It's true that she loves money, which is known to everyone, but the old lady is such a charitable person on weekdays, she loves Sister Lin so much inside and out, and she will even try to kiss her granddaughter for some money.

She is just flattering the old ladies to live and save a little more money, and she can't control this kind of thing.She and Sister Lin are on good terms, that's all, not to the point of betraying the old lady for her, after all, she depends on Jia's family for a living.Sister Lin, don't blame Sister Feng for being cruel.
