[Red Mansion] Chronicles of a Girl in the Lin Family

Mo Yun gently raised her hand and touched Jia Min's stomach cautiously, a little pleased: "I want a younger sister!"

Jia Min was curious: "Yan'er doesn't like my younger brother?"

Mo Yun shook her head and said: "It's not that I don't like my younger brother, but I just think that if I have a younger sister, I can take her to play, tie her pigtails, and when she grows up, teach her piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting. When she grows up, I will prepare a dowry for her. Anyway, in this life, as an elder sister, I will definitely protect her. But if I am a younger brother, I can only wait for him to protect me."

Jia Min was relieved when he heard this, but it was a little funny: "I am still a child, why do you want to prepare a dowry for my younger sister?" But: "Why is it a younger sister? You should protect it well. Are you waiting for him to protect you?"

Mo Yun raised her head, and the beautiful Danfeng's eyes were full of seriousness: "My younger sister is a girl, and she is pampered at home. As an older sister, I am so many years older than her, so I must take good care of her. If it is a younger brother, it is a boy. I will still take good care of him when I was young, but a boy is different from a girl. He has his responsibilities and cannot hide behind his parents and me forever. He will slowly start to learn the principles of governing the country and keeping the family in order. Slowly become an upright man, so that he can protect his father and mother in the future."

After hearing this, Jia Min thought of her elder brother and second elder brother for some reason, and didn't know what to say for a while, before sighing: "...good boy."

Mo Yun didn't know what Jia Min thought of, but looked at Jia Min's face in a daze, thinking that pregnant women should not think too much, so she found an excuse to change the topic: "What kind of incense did Mom burn today? Why does it smell so good?" ? Give me some when you go back later."

Listening to the baby girl's question, Jia Min also let go of the things in her mind, put her arms around Mo Yun, pointed at Ru Qin who didn't know when she came in, and said: "You have to ask Ru Qin, I don't know where she came from. , I replaced the usual lily scent with a few oranges, which made me feel much refreshed."

After hearing this, Mo Yun turned to look at Ruqin: "I didn't expect Ruqin to have such an ingenious idea." Then she said coquettishly to Jia Min: "Later, mom will lend me back Ruqin, so I can teach you Teach Bihe and Qiushui this method. I don’t know why I smell the jasmine fragrance these days, but I always feel uncomfortable. Ruqin’s method is good. It doesn’t need to use those spices that smoke people, and it makes the room fragrant. Comfortable."

"Since it's what you want, naturally let her go back with you." Jia Min told Ruqin: "You don't have to wait in front of me today, just eat breakfast later and you will go back with the girl. If there is nothing in the afternoon Let’s count it as half a day off.”

Ruqin listened to Jia Min's order and happily agreed.After breakfast, he followed Mo Yun back to Xizhi residence.

When she returned to Xizhi Residence, Mo Yun changed her thick jacket and wore a sky blue white magnolia double-breasted gown with a bright yellow satin pleated skirt, her hair was also loose, and she only tied it loosely in a bun. Fixing it with a hosta, she sat on the imperial concubine's couch by the window.

Bihe Qiushui also knew that her girl had to find an excuse to come to Ruqin because she must have something to ask, so she affectionately pulled Ruqin to Mo Yun's side, one brought Zhang Xiaozi, the other brought some pastries and a pot of tea come over.

Qiu Shui first poured a cup of fragrant tea for Mo Yun, and then brought a cup to Ruqin, and said with a smile, "This is the fragrant tea that Miss Tete ordered to buy a few days ago. The tea used is good tea, and the water used is also That's the cleanest mountain spring water. Sister, try it quickly, does it taste good?"

Ruqin took a sip and said: "Young lady, this tea is elegant, but I, a layman, drink this tea and feel a little more romantic!"

Mo Yun also took a few sips from the cup, and said with a smile: "You are the most talkative, so you know how to flatter me, why did you look like a parrot when you saw Li Nanny just now, you can't talk Stop talking?"

When Bi He and Qiu Shui saw that the girl Ruqin and the two were talking about serious business, they didn't leave. They just sat aside, took out the needles and threads in the basket, and began to work carefully.

Ruqin also straightened her face, put the teacup in her hand back on the table, and said to Mo Yun, "Miss also knows, this Li Nanny was brought here by the wife's natal family when she saw that the wife was alive. This Li Nanny said De Hao is here to serve his wife, but after all, it was sent by her natal family, and she is a bit older, so it is not easy for her to control her too much. On weekdays, I eat and drink for offerings, and Rumo and I can do anything by ourselves. It doesn't bother her either. But I don't know that Mammy Li has become awe-inspiring. In the past few months, I have deducted the wages of many little maids, and they don't do their daily work, so they bring a few nuns who came with them Gambling money and eating wine. My wife scolded me twice, and each time I got better after scolding, and returned to the original state after a few days. After all, my wife has a big belly, so it’s not easy to bother me, so I just secretly asked us to pay the little girl’s money. Just go up and forget it, just wait for the delivery to be over and send these girls back. But because of this indulgence, troubles almost happened a few days ago, and the angry wife was uncomfortable for several days. "

Hearing that her mother was unwell, Mo Yun immediately sat up from the concubine's couch, anxious in her heart, and asked anxiously: "Mom is unwell, why didn't you tell me? Are you feeling better these days? Did you go to ask for help?" doctor?"

Seeing that Mo Yun was so worried, Ruqin secretly blamed herself for telling the matter out, but after thinking about it, she felt that telling the girl about the matter might not be able to solve it. Mama sulked.

Seeing that Mo Yun was like this, Bi He Qiushui on the side hurriedly got up and walked to her side, comforting: "Don't worry, girl, just listen to sister Ruqin's speech. Since sister Ruqin can tell you now, the wife's body must be There's nothing wrong with it." At the same time, she turned to Ruqin and said, "Sister, why don't you hurry up and talk?"

Ruqin hurriedly said hello, and continued: "Girl, don't worry, it's my fault if you get too anxious. I invited a doctor to come two days ago, and they only said that it was due to depression in my heart, and I prescribed some medicine to soothe the nerves and relieve the pregnancy." The prescription, the wife has taken the medicine these days and is fine."

Hearing that her mother was fine, Mo Yun felt relieved.She didn't lie back on the imperial concubine couch, she just straightened her body, sat upright and asked: "What happened to make Madam so angry?"

Ruqin said: "Didn't you say that Nanny Li withheld the money from the little maids? This old godmother was a little bit cautious before, and only picked out those helpless people in the mansion. Those little maids only came to us crying, It's okay if we secretly make up, but we don't know how to raise her so much courage. There is a little maid named Wen Lan in the wife's yard. Although she is not a child of the family, she recognizes the housekeeper Lin's family as her foster mother Yes. It’s just that I usually keep a low profile, so few people know about it. It’s not easy for Wenlan. There is an older brother in the family who has been weak and sick since he was a child. In order to pay for his brother’s medicine, he disregarded his family’s obstruction and sold himself into the house. Her brother’s health No, the monthly drug fee is a big expense, and we rely on her monthly money to make ends meet. We know that it is difficult for her, and we usually try to help her. But we don’t want the old The godmother actually picked her fault and snatched her monthly money! Her elder brother relied on this monthly money to save his life, if it wasn't for the little maid who borrowed some money from her adoptive mother, he would have almost left." Qin probably got so angry that he didn't even call her a nanny, and just called that person an old godmother.

"And then? What happened to Wen Lan?" Bi He was more impatient than Mo Yun. Before Mo Yun could speak, she hurriedly asked.

Qiu Shui stepped forward, brought a cup of tea to Ruqin, and said, "My sister talked so much, let's moisten my mouth first." Then she turned to Bihe and said, "Anyway, sister Ruqin is here, you If there is anything to worry about, just listen to what my sister said."

Ruqin took the water to moisten her mouth, and then began to say: "Originally, this happened, and almost killed her. Wen Lan asked her adoptive mother to make the decision. It's fine if you return the money to others. The servant who came out of the Rongguo Mansion almost killed the servant girl of the Lin family. The older brother is not good to anyone. The old godmother thinks that the Lin family is the housekeeper of the wife. Prestige, he uttered wild words at the mouth of the housekeeper Lin. In a fit of anger, the housekeeper Lin sued his wife. The wife thought that the old woman was sent by her natal family and was not easy to do, so she just scolded her and felt sorry Wen Lan and Lin Butler's family are sick with anger."

"That's how it is." Mo Yun said thoughtfully, "It's no wonder that Nanny Li is much more stable these days."

Ruqin also said: "Isn't it much more stable? It's just that in the past few days, Nanny Li felt that she was rejected by her wife, and she also focused on our work. She stared at us in the room every day, waiting to find us. It’s better to complain to my wife about the mistake, if it’s not that my wife doesn’t believe her, Ruyun, Ruyin, and Ruyan and I don’t know what to do with each other.”

Mo Yun also knew that it was difficult for them, but she couldn't think of any solution for a while, so she could only say: "I know about this matter, I will find a way to solve it, sisters, bear with it for a few days, the boss doesn't believe it." She, just do her own thing well." Then she turned to Bihe and said, "Bring a few boxes of the rouge I got two days ago, and a few purses."

Bihe responded and hurriedly went to get it.

Mo Yun said to Ruqin: "My sister took these things back and divided them up. The sisters have suffered a lot these past few days, and it's also a little bit of my heart. I also brought another copy for that little maid, Wen Lan. After all, I, the Lin family, are sorry. People, this can be regarded as an apology. You can ask her again if she would like to come to my yard. It just so happened that the Lvmoo family redeemed her a few days ago. I still lack a little maid. If she is willing, I will and begged her mother to come.”

Ruqin couldn't help being overjoyed when she heard this, and said: "This is a good thing for the girl. As for coming to the girl's place, she is willing to come to the girl's yard, but I don't know how many lifetimes she will be blessed! Just talk to her!"

After finishing speaking, he took the things in Bihe's hand and left in a hurry.
