Mrs. Xing of the Red Chamber

When Mei Hua came out with the two little girls, she saw two pale and tired women standing in the corner.

Walking in front of them, Mei Hua said, "You two should be Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Wang, right?"

Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "We are, I don't know who you are, Miss?"

"I am Mei Hua, the maid of honor next to the empress, the empress asked me to convey my verbal will to you, respecting the will of the empress:

The empress said that she already knew that you had come to the palace, and she understood that you had worked so hard all the way here, and that you hadn't seen Concubine Xiande for several years, so I must have missed you very much.

There is no need to go in to meet the Empress Empress, just go directly to Empress Xiande, so that Concubine Xiande won't be in a hurry. "

When Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang heard the queen's will, they didn't dare to say anything more.

I can only accept the order obediently, and thank the empress for her understanding, thank you for your concern.

After the two thanked the queen for the will, they bowed and waited until Meihua and the others entered the palace, then straightened up.Continue to follow the little eunuch and walk towards Jia Yuanchun's Fengzao Palace.

Along the way, Mrs. Jia Muwang did not dare to look up at other places, for fear that if she was not careful, she would offend some noble person in the palace, and the Jia family in this palace could not afford to offend.

The three walked through long, somewhat maze-like corridors and courtyards.After much difficulty, the little eunuch finally announced that the palace in front was Fengzao Palace.

How did Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang think that they would have to walk such a long way in the palace!Now I can't hold it anymore, but when I heard that it's finally coming, I finally feel better.

When he almost reached the gate of Fengzao's palace, Jia Yuanchun's close maid was already waiting there holding the piano!

Baoqin turned out to be a maid who came out of Jia's mansion, and she voluntarily followed Jia Yuanchun into the palace.

Since he has been following Jia Yuanchun since he was a child, he is now trusted by Jia Yuanchun, and Baoqin directly helped Jia Yuanchun deal with many things.

Thinking that today is the day when family members come to visit him in the palace, Jia Yuanchun let Baoqin stand guard outside the door early on. He hasn't seen anyone at home for several years, and Jia Yuanchun misses him very much.

The reason why Jia Yuanchun sent his personal maid out to wait, one is that he misses his family members, and the other is that he has not forgotten his roots, so as to express his importance to his mother and grandmother.

Even though he hadn't seen anyone in Jia's house for several years, Baoqin recognized Jiamu and Mrs. Wang at first sight.

While letting a little maid beside him go in to inform Jia Yuanchun that he had arrived, he hurriedly went up to him, and said with a smile:

"My servant is holding the qin, paying respects to the old ancestor and the second wife, you have finally arrived! The empress urged the servant to come out early this morning to see when you will arrive. I have been waiting impatiently!"

Mrs. Jia Muwang looked familiar, isn't this the girl holding the piano!Seeing someone I know, coming out to greet him in person, I feel very comforted in my heart.

Over the past few years, seeing that the relationship between Yuan Chun and himself and others is not unfamiliar, it is not in vain to support Yuan Chun over the years.

Mrs. Jia Muwang and others also ignored the exhaustion on her body, and said very happily:

"It's Baoqin. I haven't seen you for so many years. Fortunately, you are by my side to take care of me, otherwise my mother will suffer even more!"

How could Baoqin dare to say that he was wronged and worked hard, and said with a smile:

"These are what slaves should do, as long as the empress can live well, it doesn't matter if the slaves are a little bit tired!

Besides, following the empress, the slaves didn't suffer much.I've wronged the empress, the empress has had a hard time all these years! "

Mrs. Wang thought that Yuan Chun must have suffered and suffered a lot in the palace these years, but her ability was limited.

I can only do a little bit of money, and I can't help with anything else, but my heart is so distressed.

He hurriedly asked Baoqin: "Where is your mother now, how is your health recently, is there any problem?"

At this moment, Baoqin thought that the empress was still waiting to see Mrs. Jia Muwang and the others inside, so she didn't dare to waste time, so she hurriedly turned sideways and asked them to go inside.

As he walked, he said: "Your Majesty is in good health recently, there is nothing wrong with her. Your Majesty is waiting for you in the hall!

Old ancestor and second wife, let's go in quickly, or the empress will have to wait in a hurry. "

Mrs. Jia Muwang also wanted to see Jia Yuanchun soon, so she followed Baoqin and walked into the palace.

When he reached the gate of the hall, Jia Yuanchun was already waiting there. When he saw the gray-haired grandmother and his mother, he hurried forward and shouted:

"Grandfather, madam, you are here, you miss me to death. Seeing that you are late, I am worried that something happened.

I was also thinking about sending someone to the empress's place to see when you will come out! "

Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang saw a young woman wearing a fine dress and a golden hairpin on her head—followed by several palace maids and eunuchs, they rushed up to meet her in this direction.

At first, the mother of Jia couldn't recognize the person in front of her. After hearing the young woman's words, she dared to confirm that the person in front of her was her granddaughter/daughter.

Mother Jia rushed up to greet her, looked around Jia Yuanchun, and couldn't stop saying, "I've lost weight and become more beautiful and dignified. I almost couldn't recognize my ancestor!"

Mrs. Wang followed behind Jia's mother, looking at Jia Yuanchun with greedy eyes, feeling that she couldn't get enough of her, her poor daughter!

But it's been hard, I haven't been able to see each other for so many years, and now I finally have the opportunity to meet, and the empress is also a concubine, isn't it the end of all hardships.

Mrs. Wang looked at Yuan Chun who had changed, she didn't know what to say for a moment, she just echoed:

"Yeah, it looks like it's all grown up now, it's quite different from before."

Jia Yuanchun said with tears in his eyes:

"My ancestors and mother should stop praising me, I always feel that I am still the same as before!

I haven't seen you for so many years, but I'm thinking hard. I'm so happy that my ancestors and mother can come in to see me. After finishing speaking, Jia Yuanchun wiped away his tears.

After looking at Jiamu and the others carefully, he asked:

"I don't know about my father, Baoyu, uncle and wife, how are they doing? How are the sisters at home?"

Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang wiped away their tears, and said happily: "Everything is fine at home, but I miss you so much.

When Baoyu was young, she often asked, where did the eldest sister go?Why don't you come back? Don't you want Baoyu?

Still crying and wanting to find you, we can't stop it.

Your younger sisters usually just read books and embroider patterns, and they will always say how good your eldest sister is in knowledge, and even her embroidery skills are top-notch.

He also sighed and said: I haven't seen my eldest sister for several years, I don't know how my eldest sister is doing in the palace?

This time, we knew that we were going to the palace to see you, empress, but we were anxious to let us bring you gifts. "

Jia Yuanchun was very moved when he heard this, and said with a smile:

"Over the years, I have missed my family very much, and I always want to see my family again.

Baoyu is almost 11 years old now, so she must have grown up a lot, but she used to be a small ball. "

Baoqin next to him saw that Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang looked a little tired, so he hurriedly reminded Jia Yuanchun, saying:

"Your Majesty, it's better to let the ancestor and the second wife enter the house to rest for a while. They must be tired after walking such a long distance."

Only then did Jia Yuanchun notice the situation of Mrs. Jia Muwang and the others, and hurriedly said:

"It's my negligence, old ancestor, mother, let's go into the house and sit down quickly, don't get tired."

"Okay, let us also see how the mother's room is!" After Jiamu finished speaking, she entered the room with Mrs. Wang.

Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang were indeed exhausted at this time. As soon as they entered the room, they gave way and sat down on the pit.

Seeing how tired his grandmother and mother were, Jia Yuanchun blamed himself very much.Why didn't I notice it quickly, and dragged my grandmother, mother, and the others to stand at the door for so long!

In order to make up for his negligence, Jia Yuanchun hurriedly asked the maids to bring some more delicious palace snacks.Added two or three more braziers in the house, so that grandma and mother can rest better.

Mrs. Jia Muwang and the others leaned on the kang, and after lying down for a while, the two of them recovered.

Mother Jia sighed and said, "I'm really old, I just walked this far. The body is a bit too much, after all, it's no better than when I was young."

Jia Yuanchun asked some snacks to be put in front of Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang, and said in disbelief:

"Old ancestor, you are still healthy and healthy. Look at your spirit is very good. You can't obey your old age. You are our backbone."

Mrs. Wang also felt a little hungry at this time, so she picked up the snack in front of her and ate it, and said with a smile:

"This snack is quite delicious. My ancestors should also use some. After walking for such a long time, you must be hungry too!"

"Okay, then I'll try it too." At this time, Jia Mu also recovered, and ate some heartily.

After Jiamu and Mrs. Wang had almost rested, the few people began to talk about business.

If you don't speak quickly, you will have to leave the palace at a later time, so you can't come here for nothing.

Jia Yuanchun asked everyone else in the hall to go out, leaving only Baoqin to wait on him.
