[Red Mansion Quick Pass] Avenge you
Chapter 9 Rongguo Mansion in the Capital City
At such an age, and being scolded by Mother Jia in front of the maid, Mrs. Wang was bleeding with hatred in her heart, but she dared not show any dissatisfaction on her face: "My daughter-in-law didn't mean that, she just thought, Baoyu is still young." , the marriage is not in a hurry."
Mother Jia raised her drooping eyelids and glanced at Mrs. Wang, the cold light in her eyes made Mrs. Wang's heart skip a beat.But she heard Mother Jia say softly, "Huber, you go down first."
Amber agreed and bowed out of the room. Mother Jia looked at the respectful Mrs. Wang coldly, and couldn't bear her disgust for this foolish woman.She said lightly: "Don't think that I don't know what you are up to. That Xuejia Baochai runs into Baoyu's room every day, so shameless, do you think I don't know anything? Bah, I am old even though I am old. , but still not confused!"
Mother Jia's words were a bit serious, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "The daughter-in-law dare not hide anything from the old lady. Baochai and Baoyu are just sisters and brothers, and they have never done anything out of the ordinary."
"Siblings love each other deeply? Baoyu's older sister is now in the new palace, where is another so-called older sister?" Jiamu sneered, and then said: "My wife knows what you are thinking. No Is it just to let Bao girl marry in? Let me tell you, there is no way!"
Seeing that Jia's mother had spoken, Mrs. Wang no longer concealed it, and looked at the old lady and said earnestly: "Bao girl is really a good child, she is generous and dignified, and she knows how to persuade Baoyu to make progress. The daughter-in-law really can't think of it. There is a better candidate than Bao Yatou, I hope the old lady will help me." She then knelt down.The agarwood-colored sandalwood beads in his hand touched the ground, making a crisp sound.
Jia Mu took a sip of the pastel teacup placed on the huanghuali wooden kang table, and then said slowly: "For this reason, you have detained your sister and handed it to you to prepare for Bao girl to enter the palace." of silver?"
Unexpectedly, Mother Jia knew this. Mrs. Wang immediately shuddered, and explained: "This... daughter-in-law is also for the good of our family. With a character like Bao girl, letting her into the palace, wouldn't it give us Yuanchun again? Add an opponent? The old lady Mingjian."
Jia Mu didn't speak, but just stared at Mrs. Wang coldly, until she saw cold sweat on her back, and then said: "Forget it, I don't care about this matter with you. It's just that Baoyu's marriage must be done carefully." listen to me."
Hearing this, Mrs. Wang became anxious, and hurriedly said: "Old lady, although Yangzhou is far away, my daughter-in-law has also heard that the eldest daughter of the Lin family is weak and tends to be petty. She is really not a good candidate for a daughter-in-law!"
"What do you know, stupid woman!" The old lady stretched out her hand and slapped the Kang table hard, and the tea bowls and saucers on the table jumped, making a crackling sound. "What is Daiyu's identity? The eldest daughter of a second-rank official in the imperial court, how much help will she bring to Baoyu in the future, have you ever thought about it? What is the identity of your precious girl? It's just the daughter of the imperial merchant. Huangshang said It sounds good, but in fact it is just a businessman. Since her father passed away, the Xue family has been in decline. Don’t you know these things? Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants are at the bottom, between Bao girl and Dai girl. Two classes! The gap is so big, do you still need me to say it? Even if Dai girl has a bad temper, she just needs to support her after she gets married. You are a mother-in-law and she is a daughter-in-law, can she still climb on top of you ?"
Although what the old lady said was reasonable, Mrs. Wang was still not reconciled.The old lady has controlled Jia's mansion for decades, and when Lin Daiyu came in, wouldn't it make her control over Jia's mansion even deeper?When the time comes, how can I get involved?What's more, I never liked the delicate and weak Jia Min.Jia Min's daughter must have been printed in the same mold as her.When Jia Min's daughter entered the door, Hu Meizi pretended to be dangling in front of him every day, wouldn't he lose ten years of life? ...Thinking so in her heart, Mrs. Wang knew that this matter had to be settled from the long-term, and she couldn't bear to confront the old lady, so she respectfully said: "My daughter-in-law understands, the old lady is in charge."
Seeing that Mrs. Wang finally gave in, the old lady nodded in satisfaction: "It's good that you understand, why don't you hurry up and arrange to welcome the servants of the Lin family?"
"My daughter-in-law knows, so let's go."
On the other side, on the big boat of the Lin family.
Daiyu was wearing a lotus-blue cloak, which was fluttering and fluttering in the river wind, which was really pretty.On the far bank of the river, there are folk women washing clothes by the water, and the sound of wooden sticks beating the clothes keeps coming.Farther away, at the foot of the green hill, there are several houses with black tiles and white walls. There is smoke rising from the kitchen and disappearing faintly in the blue sky.
Jia Min came out of the cabin and saw Daiyu standing on the bow of the boat in the wind, just like a graceful new lotus, she walked over and said, "Why are you standing here to blow the wind? You have caught the cold carefully. It’s summer, but the boat is no worse than at home, the water vapor is very heavy, and it’s the easiest to catch cold.”
"My daughter knows, I'll go back to the cabin soon." Daiyu took Jia Min's arm and asked coquettishly, "Mother, can we reach the capital today?"
"Exactly, it should not be dark when the ship arrives at the pier."
"I don't know, will someone come to welcome us from my grandmother's house?" Daiyu asked tentatively.
The smile on Jia Min's face faded, and he replied: "Whether we come or not, we should always go back to our own home first. It won't be too late to say hello to your grandmother and two uncles after the house is cleaned up." .”
"Does our family have a house in the capital?"
"Of course there are. It's just that no one has lived there for many years, and only a few old family members stayed in the mansion to guard them. They have to be tidied up before people can live in them." Jia Min laughed. "However, I have already sent a letter to the servants of the housekeeper. I think they have already cleaned up the place where we are going to live. After that, we will carefully clean up the other places. If there are any additions, deletions, or repairs, we will take care of them." Don’t rush, you have to take your time.”
Knowing from Jia Min that she will not go to Rongguo Mansion as soon as she arrives in the capital, Daiyu is relieved.My family went to live in Rongguo Mansion when they arrived in the capital.It turns out that the capital has its own mansion, which is really a good thing.Over the past few years, Jia Min's perception of her natal family has been declining, which is what Daiyu is happy to see happen.I'm afraid it will continue to drop in the future.
After brushing off the smoke and dust on the cloak, Daiyu returned to the cabin with Jia Min's hand, and began to teach Lin Yao to recognize the Three Character Classic.The original husband was too old to go to Beijing with them, so the task of educating the younger brother while on the boat fell to Daiyu.Fortunately, Lin Yao is talented and intelligent, so he can be regarded as a very easy task to teach him by analogy, and Daiyu is very happy.
Jia Min's prediction was right. At sunset, the Lin family's boat arrived at the capital pier.Jia Min looked at the pier, but he didn't see anyone from Jia's family. He was relieved but also a little disappointed.But soon, she cheered up, took Daiyu and Lin Yao off the boat, and came to the shore with Lin Ruhai.The servants of the Lin family who stayed in the capital had been waiting for several days, and when they saw the master and wife, they kowtowed to say hello.After Jia Min asked them to get up, she asked with a pleasant face, "Has the place where we're going to live tonight been cleared?"
The leading old servant replied: "Mrs., it has been cleaned up. Meals and hot soup have also been prepared, waiting to wash the dust for the old lady and the eldest girl."
Jia Min nodded in satisfaction, thinking that after she settles down, it's time to reward these servants.So, the Lin family rode horses and sedan chairs towards the Lin residence.Leaving the butler, the nanny in charge and others on the pier, watching the servants carry the Lin family's belongings.Seeing that the property and furniture were about to be moved, he saw the family servants of the Jia family coming to the pier in a leisurely manner.Knowing that the members of the Lin family had returned to their home, they were also happy to be at leisure, so they went back to report.
When she learned that the Lin family had returned to her home, Mother Jia's face was very ugly.She looked at Mrs. Wang and said, "How do you do things? How can you pick up people when you go so late?"
Mrs. Wang hung her head in silence, but she glanced at Wang Xifeng who was standing aside from the corner of her eyes.Wang Xifeng got the signal, so she had no choice but to go forward and said: "It's none of my wife's business. It turned out that I made the arrangements a bit late, so I ask the old lady to forgive me."
Wang Xifeng, who has a sharp personality and a sharp tongue, has always been loved by Jia's mother, so she doesn't say anything anymore.Just tell her to remember, don't neglect the Lin family like this in the future.Wang Xifeng agreed to retreat, but she heard Mrs. Wang raised her head and said: "It's the daughter-in-law and Feng girl's fault, but the Lin family is also real. It's not that I don't know where our home is, why don't you come here by yourself? The old lady is so tired that she worries about them."
After hearing this, Mother Jia felt dissatisfied with Jia Min and the others, and said, "If you raise a son to be a hundred years old, you will worry about 99 years. As a child, how do you know the painstaking efforts of your parents? Sigh..."
Feeling the old lady's dissatisfaction, Mrs. Wang lowered her eyes, and a barely noticeable smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Not to mention the people in the Rongguo Mansion, but when Daiyu returned to the Lin Mansion in the capital, she was very satisfied to see that the mansion was spacious and elegant.The garden here has some of the beauty of the south of the Yangtze River, which suits her eyes very well.It's just that it has been in disrepair for a long time, and some places show a dilapidated appearance.It will be fine if it is repaired in the future.
After a peaceful night's sleep, the next morning, Lin Ruhai went to the palace to report on his duties, while Jia Min was busy arranging household items and rectifying the servants.Daiyu took her younger brother with her, so that her mother would have no worries.In such a hurry, six or seven days passed in a blink of an eye.
Mother Jia raised her drooping eyelids and glanced at Mrs. Wang, the cold light in her eyes made Mrs. Wang's heart skip a beat.But she heard Mother Jia say softly, "Huber, you go down first."
Amber agreed and bowed out of the room.
