Red House Spring Fiber

"What!" Mother Jia and the others were all shocked, but they didn't know how to tell the difference.

After half a day passed, the house was still silent.

Jia Zheng has always been straightforward, although he knew that this matter involved Yuan Chun's future honor, humiliation and comfort, but thinking of the eunuch's mischief, he couldn't hide his disgust in his heart, and stood aside with a livid face.After half a day, he finally choked out a sentence: "This is definitely not possible."

"Then what about the empress?" The other people didn't care, but Mrs. Wang couldn't bear it anymore, her eyes turned red immediately: "The empress is in the palace!"

It's just such a reason, otherwise how would the former eunuch Xia dare to open his mouth to Jia's family?Maybe it's because he is a powerful person beside Yuan Chun, and he is often sent to report to Jia's mansion, so he has already grasped the handle.What's more, the eunuch Qian now has face in front of the Holy Majesty, if he doesn't agree with him, and secretly uses some tricks later, I'm afraid that Yuanchun and Jia's mansion will not be a good one.But there are two sides to the story, even though the matter is so, but the first time the money eunuch dared to open his mouth for [-] to [-] silver, the desire will be hard to fill later, so is there anything good for Jia's mansion?

Therefore, even Jia's mother was uneasy, and she sighed after a while: "It's not for your mother, what is the whole family doing here? It's just that we don't know the situation in the palace, and your mother may not know that eunuch Qian is like this. Don't say it will happen." My son promises, what will happen to the eunuch Qian in the future. Even if I promise, if I accidentally break a taboo and cause wind and rain with my empress, what should I do?"

These words became more and more reasonable, not to mention that everyone nodded, even Mrs. Wang immediately swallowed, and stood there blankly with her face downcast, her heart was in such a mess that she couldn't speak.After a long time, Jia Lian, who was standing below, suddenly said: "The old lady is right, but now the situation is urgent, and it is difficult to talk to the empress for the time being. Why don't you go to the eunuch Xia for a few words. He often visits us on weekdays. Come home, there is always some kindness."

This is a way, Jia Zhen nodded repeatedly and said yes: "It's only suitable now. If the eunuch Xia really has some power, what about his [-] silver? Although these eunuchs love money, they can do something Things. If you can help the empress, you can give it to me."

Now Jia's mansion is relying on Yuanchun. Although this injection is quite a lot of money, it must be taken out.Therefore, a group of people had nothing to say, so Jia Lian hurriedly went to the eunuch Xia to post a post, and came back to tell Sister Feng that this was the case.

Sister Feng couldn't help sneering, and said: "One bet after another is all for the officials. Although it is for the empress, it is the wife's flesh and blood. How much glory can we get in the future? But this family, I'm afraid I won't be able to support my dignity any more!" Since there was a rift between Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng, she became more and more careful about some things.

"Again, your mother is in the palace, our family has a lot of leverage, so we don't care about these money. There are always back and forth." Jia Lian didn't realize it, and knocked on the table with a fan with a smile Case: "When the head grows up, and there are still good things for him."

Seeing that she was talking about her son, Sister Feng stopped talking and started talking about trivial matters in the house.Jia Lian responded with a few words casually, but didn't take it very seriously.Sister Feng was about to have a fit, but she only thought of Eunuch Qian, and felt discouraged: "Forget it, it's boring to talk about it now. We have to pass this test before we can talk about anything else."

As she said, Mother Jia and others were all concerned about this matter. The next day, before Jia Lian passed, Eunuch Xia came over first. : "Eunuch Qian is the one who knows the rules best. If you ask for anything in a hurry, you will be rewarded later, but he is not that kind of frivolous person. Otherwise, the empress would not say anything, and just follow his words."

With these words, Mother Jia waited for Fang to calm down three points, and hurriedly cashed in the gold, and sent it to the eunuch Qian's residence.

The eunuch Qian originally had the idea of ​​planting willows everywhere, in case he would do it himself later, and he would have someone to help him when he was in trouble, so he chose a few suitable concubines to be his support.The [-] taels of silver mentioned in front of his head was just a casual statement, but in fact he had made up his mind, as long as it was no less than five thousand taels, he would naturally do as much as he received.He never thought that Jia's mansion was so neat, but he was surprised, and thought: After all, it is the mansion of the Duke of the State, and it is not like ordinary people who look forward and backward.No wonder that virtuous concubine's words and deeds are different, she is slightly older than the saint, and her appearance is no more than second-class in the palace, but she can still win the concubine position, presumably because of her family's education.

With such considerations in mind, the eunuch Qian was more willing to help.Later, when he went to the palace, he did some things inside, so I won't mention it for the time being.Not to mention the other side, the eunuch Xia who was often sent by Yuan Chun's side became more respectful, and went to Jia's mansion, not looking for opportunities to blackmail like before.

Seeing this, the people of Jia's mansion felt more at ease immediately, and when they heard that Yuanchun's illness had been cured, they put aside their worries and went back to their families.However, at this time, the New Year's Eve is approaching, and when it is the most busy time, there can be peace and stability.But Baoyu and other juniors can relax a little bit.

As long as it is so loose, other people can still do it. Baoyu has been in front of Jia Zheng for several months. Now that he is loose, he is like a bird out of a cage. He only wishes he could spread his wings and fly high. Walking around with my sisters became less and less, and I found new articles, so I needed to invite a poetry club.Seeing that he was very earnest, everyone agreed, saying that he would make plum blossom poems.Just as they were making a fuss, someone suddenly came over from Jia Mu's place, saying that it was someone from the historian family, and asked Shi Xiangyun to come over and talk.

"I got a letter a few days ago. My uncle and aunt said that I will be able to return to Beijing in a few days. I think it's here now." Xiangyun read the letter at Jiamu's place before his head, and he knew it immediately, and got up quickly After arranging her clothes, she turned her head and said, "I'll come back as soon as I go. You have to wait for me for this poem." Everyone agreed and watched her go. Daiyu then said, "I'm afraid there are some It’s a matter, otherwise, when I return to Beijing, it will take a few days to tidy up even the house, how can I call her over there.”

"I think it's because Mrs. Shi has something to say, that's why it happened just now." Tanchun didn't take it seriously, because she said with a smile: "there are old ladies here, sister Lin just think about writing poetry first. Otherwise, if you look back If you don’t do well, you will be punished.”

Everyone began to gossip again.

When Xiangyun came back for a while, they gathered for a poetry club, and everyone dispersed with a smile on their faces.

Only Xiangyun felt a little sad when she went back. Li Wan asked a few words, and she said, "I thought about staying for two more days, but I couldn't get it." Baoyu begs the old lady to come and stay for a few more days, that's all."

After Xiangyun heard this, Fang Zhanyan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is right, so that's the reason." After all, within three or five days, she really went back to the historian's house.After she left, Mrs. Shi went to Jiamu's place to say something heartfelt, not for anyone else, but for Xiangyun's affairs: "It was said that she would be released for a year or two, so let it go. I don't want to worry about it." My son was not sure, but the master told me that there will be some in three or five years. People like us naturally put loyalty first in everything. Only Xiang girl is a little embarrassed here. She had an appointment with Wei's family earlier, and she will treat her as soon as possible. Leaving the court, it is a little difficult to deal with the head portrait on the dowry being furniture."

"It doesn't matter. I'm going to make a dowry for Lin girl now, and it's easy to take care of Yun girl." Jia Musu likes Xiangyun's tenderness, so she is naturally willing to do it with her: "It's me who is a little bit considerate. prepare her dowry for her own things."

Mrs. Shi hurriedly smiled and said: "The old lady is considerate of us, and we dare not work too hard. Besides, her major affairs have already been settled, and I have slowly saved some things with her in the past. Later, some things that will take time With the help of the old lady, you will be safe." From this, it can be concluded that within two or three days, Mrs. Shi will send someone to send the dowry list, and there are a few things in it that need to be checked by Jia Mu. It is also explained one by one.

When Jia Mu saw the dowry list, she frowned slightly: the dowry is also a little thin.Lin Yatou is different from the other ones, so naturally I don't mention it, even Yingchun's place seems to be one or two points better than Xiangyun's here.Even though the family finances are a little bit more difficult now, the juniors must not become weaker when it comes to important matters.

If that's the case, it doesn't make sense for her to be a married woman and an old lord, to make irresponsible remarks to her nephew and daughter-in-law.What's more, Xiangyun's marriage is in every way, and there is nothing wrong with it.Besides, when it comes to the inappropriateness of the historian, Jia Mu pondered for a long time, but finally gave up, only preparing to add a little more for herself and Xiangyun later, which will always be equal to Yingchun.

But Mr. Xiangyun also heard five or six points about this kind of thing, and for a moment he made up his mind, and became more and more depressed, so he couldn't say anything.When she was able to go back, she put aside other things, first found needlework and satin, and started to work slowly by herself: nothing else, if these bedding and clothes were made slowly by herself, they would look a little nicer on the dowry some.

Therefore, even if Mother Jia asked her to stay there for a short time, Xiangyun was not like before. She stayed for more than ten days, but returned within three or two days.Daiyu saw it in her eyes, and said: "Everyone else is suffering from bitter summer, why is it bitter winter for you? This month has passed, and you are so much thinner than before, and even your clothes are an inch loose. But what's the matter, Even if we can't, we can always come up with an idea."

Xiangyun blushed and was speechless.

It's just that she and Daiyu gradually got better in the past two years, and she can say a few words about some things.Therefore, Daiyu asked a few more questions, but she finally said a few vague words.How clever Daiyu is, she can understand it as soon as she hears it, and she often talks in front of Jia Mu, and she knows Jia Mu's meaning, and now she heard that it was for this, so she hurriedly said: "Where is it worth your troubles?" Are you bothered? Don't worry, and there is an old lady. She mentioned to me long ago that she needs to add makeup to you. I just said that it is normal. Now, compared with the example of the second sister, I never thought of such a reason .”

"Is that so?" Xiangyun immediately felt relieved and asked again and again.

Daiyu naturally explained in detail, and then advised her to cherish herself.

Xiangyun went to the big event on his mind, so naturally there was nothing wrong with it, and
