The Forest of Red Mansions

Although he was so angry that he gritted his teeth, Fourth Master never told Lin Jinyao of his speculation, but would often speak ill of Lao Ba in front of her intentionally or unintentionally. Deep, insidious, cunning, ambitious, calculating, good at disguising, and used to stabbing a knife in the back... a villain.

Lin Jinyao didn't care much about this, and never had any doubts. Her fourth master looked cold and heartless like a lump of ice, but in fact he was a chatterbox in private, and he would often pull her to complain about it at night. The brothers jumped up and down restlessly, yelling at the official's corpse as a vegetarian for having no talent or virtue.

Although Lin Jinyao is happy to listen to gossip, it is tiring to be forced to listen to his complaints when she is sleepy, but she can understand it. After all, some things are really difficult to say outside, or even Show it, who doesn't feel uncomfortable holding it in your heart day after day, and always needs a way to vent. Fourth Master can tell her so much because he trusts her.

Therefore, Lin Jinyao didn't feel surprised that the object of fourth master's complaints became the eighth child during this period of time. Although it was unprecedented for him to complain about him in a variety of ways for several days, Lin Jinyao just sighed. The fourth child and the eighth child are indeed natural enemies.

She didn't know the inside story at all, so facing Guo Luoluo's increasingly sinister and hateful eyes day after day, Lin Jinyao couldn't figure it out at all, and at the same time couldn't help cursing insanity secretly, and at the same time, her heart became more and more fearful Beware.

Today, I greeted the Queen Mother together, and the women in the room were chatting and laughing, and they inevitably talked about the child, only to hear Guo Luoluo suddenly interjected, "Speaking of which, the fourth sister-in-law and the fourth brother have been married for a while, I'm afraid Is the good news coming soon?"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help turning their eyes to Lin Jinyao, and the Empress Dowager and Imperial Concubine were even more expectant.

During the Chinese New Year, Lin Jinyao suddenly felt a little uncomfortable at the banquet. She thought it was good news, but after the imperial doctor looked at her, she only thought that she had a weak spleen and stomach. During that time, the palace had constant banquets every day, and she ate too much greasy food. , causing discomfort.

The Empress Dowager, the imperial concubine and others felt a little regretful and disappointed when they heard the news, but they didn't say anything more. Well, it's normal to not have one.

But now that Guo Luoluo's mention, it can't help but arouse the longing and anticipation of the queen mother and imperial concubine.

There are many children and grandchildren in the Aixinjueluo family, but no one will dislike them no matter how many they have, not to mention that the fourth master is not young but has no children under his knees, so it is not surprising that he is anxious.

After Guo Luoluo's words fell, Concubine De smiled lovingly again: "What the eighth family said is that the fourth and fourth couples have been married for a long time, so it stands to reason that there should be good news. The fourth family, you What's wrong with your body recently?"

Lin Jinyao's face froze slightly, subconsciously touched her belly, and shook her head.

Concubine De frowned, showing worry, "It shouldn't be..."

Guo Luoluo said: "It really shouldn't be, it's been half a year, and now the fourth brother is only the fourth sister-in-law, so I should have it anyway, could it be the fourth sister-in-law's body..."

Guo Luoluo covered his mouth with a handkerchief, hesitated to speak, his face showed worry, but there was unconcealable malice in his eyes.

Concubine De, who sang with her, acted like a loving mother-in-law who was worried about her daughter-in-law, and said with worry and pity: "The fourth family, go to Yonghe Palace with Er Niang later, Er Niang called the imperial doctor to come Let me show you, if there is something wrong, it is best to seek medical treatment as soon as possible, no matter what, it is not a good idea to avoid medical treatment."

This is said as if she really has something wrong with her, and it also implies that she deliberately conceals her own troubles!

Lin Jinyao's face turned dark.

The Queen Mother looked at her thin and slender body, and frowned slightly. Thinking that the Lin family seemed to have had a hard time with their offspring for generations, and it could almost be said that it was a single lineage, she couldn't help feeling a little more suspicious.

The imperial concubine looked at Concubine De with cold eyes, and said displeasedly: "What's the matter with being so nonsense? When the Eight Banners show girls entered the palace for draft, which one hadn't been carefully examined by the imperial physician? If there is something wrong with your body, you can't be the royal daughter-in-law. Since the four families can stay until the end, there is nothing wrong with it. Now that the good news has never come, it is just that the fate has not arrived, so what is wrong? The younger generation is young and ignorant and talks nonsense. As an elder, you don’t look forward to it. He’s a nice guy, but he’s making a fool of himself, what will people say if this word gets out? It’s ridiculous!”

After all, she is one of the four concubines, but now she is reprimanded in front of so many people, and Concubine De's face turns green immediately, and she feels ashamed and annoyed all over her face.

Guo Luoluo's complexion was also a little ugly, and the words of the imperial concubine also sarcastically ridiculed her.

"I'm also worried about the fourth family..." Concubine De forced a smile, showing her aggrieved face.

Concubine Yi, who had always been at odds with Concubine De, couldn't help but sneered, "Yeah, you can worry about it, if it's not good, you worry, if it's good, you'll have trouble sleeping and eating even more."

A slave is really a slave, even if he flies on a branch, he can't become a phoenix!I don't even look at how old I am, someone who should have grandchildren, and I feel aggrieved like a little daughter-in-law when someone says a few words and twists the veil.

It's pitiful for the little girl to behave like this, she... has a wrinkle on her face thanks to the fact that she can do it, it's really disgusting!

Thinking this way in her heart, Concubine Yi's face showed a bit of ridicule and disdain.

The women in the harem fight for men, for love, for status, and for sons... There are always countless fights, not to mention that each of them has a deep hatred, but they are also disgusting, especially now The fourth concubine, they have been fighting since they entered the palace when they were young, and it has only subsided a little now that they are getting older.

Although several people look at each other very unpleasantly, but to be honest, Concubine Hui, Concubine Rong, and Concubine Yi are the most hated objects in the hearts of the three, and that is Concubine De. Enmity and resentment, just because Concubine De was born as a palace maid is enough to make people feel disgusted.

The three of Hui Rongyi all came from famous families in the Qing Dynasty. In terms of background, no one is worse than the other, but Concubine De is just a slave in a coat. Why should they be called equal sisters?Nothing so irritating!What's more, this German concubine was born as a slave, but she flattered her master and did all kinds of dirty things, but in the end she still pretended to be dignified, virtuous, gentle and virtuous!

What is it called?If you become a bitch, you have to set up a torii!It's really disgusting!

Concubine Yi led the way, and Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong followed closely behind. With a gun and a stick hidden in the cotton, Concubine De taunted De Concubine from head to toe, only making De Concubine tremble with anger. But he is used to pretending, even to this point, he insists on gritting his teeth to maintain his "gentle and virtuous" mask, an appearance of "I am kind, I am magnanimous, and I don't care about you".

"Okay, okay, don't say a few words, it's a headache for the family." The queen mother rubbed her head and said helplessly.

She didn't want to help De Concubine out of the siege, in fact, she had never looked down on De Concubine at all, her old man was just too noisy.

Glancing at the group of gorgeous daughter-in-laws and grand-daughter-in-laws, the queen mother waved her hand wearily, telling everyone to retreat, leaving only the imperial concubine in front of her.

Lin Jinyao remained calm on the face, but her heart was a little heavy and depressed. She was almost sure that the queen mother left the imperial concubine alone at this time, and she and the fourth master might be the ones to talk about. It was even more likely that the queen mother wanted to be called the imperial concubine "Gift".

"Fourth sister-in-law." Guo Luoluo came over with a smile, "It seems that the fourth brother will have a newcomer soon, so I'm here to congratulate the fourth sister-in-law in advance."

Lin Jinyao gave her a cold look, then smiled lightly, "The fourth sister-in-law is also here to wish the eighth brother and eighth brother and sister a big fat boy as soon as possible." After saying that, she lifted her foot and left.

Behind him, Guo Luoluo's face darkened instantly.

why?Because of getting married these days, Lao Ba has never entered Guo Luoluo's room. He either rests in the study, or asks the two princesses given to him by Concubine Hui before getting married to take turns to serve him.

Because of this, the Guo Luoluo family has made a lot of troubles, but those two people were gifted by Concubine Hui, and now they live in the palace, staying under the eyes of the emperor, queen mother and Concubine Hui, no matter how much trouble she dares The trouble was too much, even if she wished to kill those two sluts, but now she could only think about it, and could only secretly bite a bite and watch the two sluts triumphantly.

This matter is not a secret in the palace, everyone knows what should be known, many people secretly laughed at Guo Luoluo, now that Lin Jinyao said this, it was just slapping her in the face naked.

Guo Luoluo is more than just angry, she is about to go crazy, but she can't do anything to Lin Jinyao, she can only grit her teeth with hatred, secretly thinking in a few days to see if you are still crazy!

……

"Being in front of the fourth child...it's really too empty." The queen mother said lightly: "I got married first, and I always have to take care of the face of Fujin. Now it's been half a year, and it's time to make careful arrangements. It's good to spread the branches and leaves as soon as possible, as the mother of the fourth child, you still need to work hard."

The imperial concubine smiled helplessly and said: "It's only been a while, and the young couple are still mellow, how can I rush to be that villain at this time? No, in the end, I didn't fall, but fell into a whole body Complaining. Besides, Fujin is still not happy now, but the eldest son of a concubine is born first...it is not beautiful after all, if there is another big-hearted one...the fourth family is still young, I am afraid they may not be able to handle it. "

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager also hesitated for a moment. After decades of working in the harem, she naturally knows the methods of those women best, but...

"It's been half a year, and there has been no movement from the fourth family. Ai's family seems to be a little thinner, I'm afraid it's..." It's not easy to give birth.

The imperial concubine pondered for a moment, then said: "It's better to wait a little longer, the fourth family seems to be a little thinner, but there is nothing wrong with their bodies, maybe it's because the fate has not come yet? Besides, after a while, I can't say no. Surely the fourth child will fade away by himself. This man, if he really wants to, he can't be stopped, so why should we elders rush to pour cold water on his enthusiasm?"

The queen mother sighed softly, "Forget it, just do as you said." After all, she is an old woman who never cares about things. If she is not worried about the issue of children, she would not bother to interfere in the affairs of the younger generation. Worried, why should she be a grandmother.

Seeing that the queen mother did not mention it anymore, the imperial concubine was also slightly relieved, but thinking of the restless concubine De, it seemed that this matter was not over yet.

The queen mother can stop her here, in case that concubine De directly speaks to the emperor...
