[Red Mansion] Hairpins fly when they are

The family is only so big, no matter how old Mrs. Song doesn't like to go out, she still has two personal maids who are ear gods, so Mrs. Song still knows how the Xue family is doing here.

The reason why she didn't intervene was because she thought that her son was going back to the countryside, and she was considerate of his hard work in earning money, so she was not willing to spend recklessly on outsiders.

The situation is different now, and with Jia Yucun’s urging again, Mrs. Song is no longer petty, and turns her head to tell Yuhuan: “Go to the kitchen and tell Xue’s family to treat Xue’s family well. Just like us."

Yu Huan responded, turned around and left.

Fan Jiaoxing held the chopsticks in her hands, feeling ashamed and annoyed.

Although the master said this to the old lady, he actually said it to himself.She had no way to justify it, so she could only lower her head as much as possible.

Hearing the old lady order Yu Huan to go to the kitchen, she raised her head and said, "Mother is right. Since we are guests, we should treat them well and get along as relatives. We also have a new family."

His son has been an official for many years, and Mrs. Song naturally understands the benefits of forming good relationships.She nodded to Fan Jiaoxing, both pointing and knocking: "It's the best if you can think like this. I see Mrs. Xue only has two clothes when she comes and goes. I'll send a few horses of good material here later."

Fan Jiaoxing suppressed her blushing, and turned her head to tell Qiuyue: "Did you hear that? I am too busy to take care of them on weekdays. You should take care of them. If they are missing anything, don't report it to me. Just give it to them." gone."

Qiuyue lowered her head and answered "Yes".

……

When Baochai got up, she weaved a net for a while, and she didn't stop until Yinger came back with the food and called her to eat.

Walking to the table and looking, the dishes are unexpectedly rich: a bowl of peanut and red date porridge, a plate of steamed buns, a plate of sliced ​​salted duck eggs, a plate of steamed radish cake, a plate of stir-fried vegetarian melon and a Dish of pickles dripping with sesame oil.

"Huh?" Baochai felt very strange, the usual breakfast is only porridge and a white steamed bun, so is there any happy event today?

"Has mother used it? She also eats these?" Baochai asked hastily.

Yinger smiled all over her face: "I was shocked just now, Aunt Li told me quietly that the old lady told me what the masters of the family will eat in the future, girl, you, your wife and sister Xiangling will also eat like this. "

"What about you?" All three of them mentioned it, except Ying'er.

"I'm a girl, and I'm supposed to eat people's food." Ying'er was sincerely happy that her masters' treatment had improved from the bottom of her heart, with a bright smile on her face.

"There's so much, I can't finish it. Sit down, let's eat together."

Ying'er knew Baochai's appetite, and she feared that more than half of the table would be left in the end, so she didn't hold back, and brought her porridge, and sat down with Baochai to eat.

In the main room, Jia Yucun accompanied his mother and wife to have breakfast, he took out a few purses from his arms, and handed the biggest one to the old lady Song: "Mother, this is your pocket money for this month from your son's filial piety. "

Seeing that the purse was big and bulging, Mrs. Song quickly declined: "I have delicious food and drink at home, and I have someone to take care of it. Wherever you need money, you take it back and keep it for yourself."

Jia Yucun stuffed it into her hand, with a smile on his face, and his words were very sincere: "Mother, don't save money for me. I found something to do, and I don't lack this."

Mrs. Song remembered whose house her son said he was going to be an assistant to. Although she didn't know the identity of the other party, but those who could afford to hire an assistant must have a lot of money in their family.

Even the emperor knew that he would not send hungry soldiers, and if he wanted the horses to run fast, grass was a must.Her son is so outstanding, how can no one appreciate it?It is inevitable that the other party treats him favorably.

Only then did Mrs. Song take the purse, and said with a smile: "Then I'll keep it. If you're tight for a while, just come to me."

Jia Yucun knew his mother's temperament, and she had been poor for most of her life. Even if he became rich later, the old lady would not spend recklessly, and always wanted to save more for him.

He just smiled, and then handed a purse containing three taels of silver to Fan Jiaoxing: "In the past, my wife's monthly money was two taels. During this period of time, you have been wronged for crowding this small courtyard with me. From now on, it will be raised every month. How about three or two? This place is a bit small, you can’t even distinguish between the front and back yards, and the servants don’t look like they’re running around. I’ll go and inquire about it in a couple of days, and I’ll move if there’s a suitable one.”

The old lady Song nodded straightly: "If you have loose money, you can change it if you want. After all, when you have serious business, colleagues always come to live with each other, and it's not easy to invite people to visit here."

"That's exactly what I think." Jia Yucun said, "The houses where Xue's family lives are not as good as they are, and I don't look good when I say it. We always don't greet well. I think, every month Also give them some broken silver, not much, just enough to buy some small things."

Fan Jiaoxing was secretly happy that she had increased the moon silver, and when she heard this, she immediately felt a pain in her heart.However, her husband and mother-in-law were talking, so she couldn't interrupt at will, so she could only hold back.

Mrs. Song also felt sorry for the money, and then she thought about it, the four women had no relatives and no reason, since they lived in their own home, they could only ask themselves for what they lacked, why not give them some money and let them look at the money bag Buy it outside, maybe you can save a fortune.

Although Mrs. Song had figured it out, she was still worried that these people would become a long-term burden to her son, so she hurriedly asked, "How long will they be staying?"

Jia Yucun lowered his head and thought for a while before answering: "Mrs. Xue has a son named Xue Pan who is in prison, and the lawsuit he has incurred is not a small one. If there is an amnesty..."

In his opinion, as long as Miracle Doctor Xu treats and treats the fourth prince with all his heart, maybe the change of throne will be brought forward.

"In case of an amnesty, you can redeem them if you pay a ransom. Xiangling is his concubine, and she seems to have identified the Xue family. Before Master Xue comes out, I will raise them for the time being, and I have the right to repay them back then." The kindness, it should not have been a few years."

It is not easy to say that it is easy to meet Amnesty, and it is not difficult to say that it is difficult.

Under normal circumstances, when the new emperor ascends the throne, he will definitely pardon the world.In addition, there may be amnesty for the establishment of a prince, important sacrifices, victory in battles, or major natural phenomena.

Mrs. Song knew that the current Majesty was old, and the crown prince might be established within a year or two. As long as her son was not allowed to take care of the Xue family for the rest of his life, she immediately let go of the worries in her heart and explained cheerfully: "It's not a concubine anymore. I heard from Mrs. Xue that she has already decided to raise Xiangling as the second wife. It's just that her son hasn't come out yet, so it's not convenient to serve wine right now."

"Oh?" Jia Yucun didn't know this, and was also happy for Xiangling, "It's even better this way."

Fan Jiaoxing listened absent-mindedly, thinking to herself, the master has always been the master of this family, although he has no worries about food and drink, but he can't touch other money except the moon silver, even if the master doesn't spend money on Xue's family, the money is also worth it. Why can't she think about it if it can't reach her own hands?

Think about it, after a while, after changing the big yard, she will be able to resume the communication between the wives of the official family as usual, go out as a guest or hold a banquet at home, just thinking about it makes people very happy.

So, she was not angry anymore, and even answered a sentence generously: "The old lady is still well-informed, and I don't know. I will send a hairpin to congratulate Xiangling later, which is also my heart."

"If you send a hairpin, then I will give you a bracelet and two more red ones." Mrs. Song was very excited, and said to Jia Yucun in detail, "You don't know, this concubine most desires The most important thing is to wear bright red. Xiangling will be happy if I send this material over!"

Jia Yucun was not very interested in such a topic, so he agreed casually, and then handed three small purses to the old lady: "Mother, I don't have time to see them, you can find Mrs. Xue later, and take these purses Give it to them, just say it's my heart, let them live well, treat it as their own home."

"I understand, don't worry." Mrs. Song accepted it.

"The mother rests first, I will go to the study to sit and sit, and I have to go out in the afternoon."

"You go, remember to take your servant with you when you go out, try to drink as little as possible, and come back earlier." Mrs. Song never asked her son where he was going or what he was doing.

Her son is doing big things outside, even if he explained it to her, she might not be able to understand him.Under such influence, Fan Jiaoxing did not dare to question Jia Yucun's whereabouts casually.

After Jia Yucun went out, Fan Jiaoxing also wanted to say goodbye, saying that she was going to serve the master's tea. Mrs. Song nodded repeatedly, and specially instructed: "He didn't move his chopsticks a few times at the dinner table, and he will definitely be hungry soon." , you prepare two more plates of snacks, such a tall and big body can't be hungry."

Fan Jiaoxing agreed, and then withdrew.

Mrs. Song sent a maid to invite Mrs. Xue and Xiangling to talk. She congratulated Xiangling first, then waved to the maid. Yuhuan came forward with a few pieces of stuff in her hand.

There was also a small brocade box on top of the material, and Mrs. Song took it over and opened it, and took out a thin gold bracelet from it, and she couldn't help but put it on Xiangling's wrist.

Although the bracelet was thin, it was solid gold, Xiangling didn't dare to accept it, she declined several times but was blocked by Mrs. Song, so she had no choice but to look at Mrs. Xue.

Mrs. Xue said with a smile, "Ms. Song is kind, so just keep it."

Xiangling just accepted it, and thanked Fushen.

Mrs. Song took out the three purses that Jia Yucun had just given and handed them to Yuxi, who put the purses on the coffee table in front of Xue.

Mrs. Xue didn't understand what it meant, so she asked Mrs. Song: "Old lady, this..."

"Speaking carefully, our two families are also related. Although we are far away, we live together now, so our relationship with other people is naturally different. I am old, and I don't care much about housekeeping. I have wronged you, please don't go there. Take it to heart. Keep these purses, the master said, this amount will be the same every month from now on..."

Mrs. Song hadn't finished her sentence yet, but Mrs. Xue stood up in a panic, with embarrassment on her face, she declined politely: "What's wrong with this, you kindly took us in, this is already a great kindness, how can you take it again?" What about silver?"

"It's too alien for you to say that about a relative." Mrs. Song said, "Relatives are supposed to help each other, but it's just a few small money. There are too few of them."

"No, that's not what I meant..."

"If you don't mean that, then accept it quickly. Do you have to let me, an old lady, come and talk to you?"

In a few words, Xue was invincible and unable to hold back, so she had to smile awkwardly, accept it, and thanked the old lady sincerely, and praised Jia Yucun.

After talking with her for a while, seeing that Mrs. Song was tired, Mrs. Xue led Xiangling to leave the main room.
