The Rongjudai of the Red Chamber

Mrs. Wang thought to herself, and when she returned to her residence at night, she thought about it for a while, and she began to think about it. Although she was full of unwillingness, but in the end, as Jia Mu said, if she went to court three days later, what would Concubine Yuan's face be?How to get a foothold in the palace then?So he helped Jin Chuan's hand and went to the Hengwu courtyard. Seeing the bright lights in the Hengwu courtyard, he knew that Aunt Xue was still there, and he was secretly thankful, so he walked over!

The mother and daughter of the Xue family were talking, and when they heard the little girl say that Mrs. Wang had come, they got up hurriedly, restrained their expressions, and went to the door with Baochai, and said with a smile, "Why is sister here?"

Mrs. Wang said with a smile all over her face: "My sister hasn't gone back yet, just right, but now I have something to ask my sister!" Seeing Mrs. Wang's expression, Aunt Xue's heart skipped a beat. So many things happened today, Mrs. Wang It's hard to guess the intention!

Aunt Xue watched Mrs. Wang's expression carefully, looked at Mrs. Wang cautiously, and said with a smile: "Sister, if you have anything to do, just say it. If my sister can help, I will definitely help my sister!"

Mrs. Wang nodded in satisfaction, took the tea brought by Baochai, and said with a smile: "My sister is here today, and after hearing what Lin Daiyu said, she actually asked us to pay back her money. She is really a coquettish woman." Son, you are so disregarding your usual affection!"

After hearing Mrs. Wang's words, Aunt Xue was even more frightened. She was afraid that Mrs. Wang's intentions were not so simple, so she laughed and said, "That's right, that foxy Lin girl didn't even think about it. If it wasn't for the kindness of our mansion, Take her in the mansion, I'm afraid I don't know where the lonely ghost is now!"

Mrs. Wang nodded in satisfaction, looked at the slightly worried expressions of the mother and daughter of the Xue family, and then smiled and said: "I have something to ask my sister today, and my sister also knows that the benefits of the mansion are not as good as in previous years. Daily expenses are also required. This Linhu Meizi has 60 taels to open her mouth. Where can I find this money? Now I am thinking about borrowing 20 taels from my sister for the time being. I can pay back the rent in the future Sister's!"

Aunt Xue and Baochai were even more shocked when they heard this, and they tried their best to stabilize their minds, but their faces were still shocked, 20 taels, thanks to Mrs. Wang asking for it so much, now the Xue family's income is not getting better day by day, What's more, there is Xue Pan, a bastard who came to spoil the family wealth, and he would have lost his former glory, otherwise he would not have lived in Jia's mansion for many years, ignoring people's gossip, and still living here, nothing more than wanting to borrow Jia's mansion The name makes business easier, and now all the decent businesses add up to only a few 10 taels of silver, and Mrs. Wang's mouth is 20 taels, how can I get it together?

Seeing the astonishment on their faces, Mrs. Wang was a little displeased, but after all, she was still looking at Xue's mother and daughter with a smile on her face because she still wanted to borrow her money!

Aunt Xue was anxious, she didn't know how to deal with it, she couldn't help looking at Baochai, Baochai stabilized her mind a little, looked at Mrs Wang's slightly displeased expression, thought for a long time in her heart, and then stepped forward He smiled and said: "My aunt came to borrow it, so it is natural to give it, but the 20 taels of silver can't be moved out now, so my aunt will wait for a while, and after discussing it with my mother tomorrow, I will naturally give my aunt a satisfactory answer." of!"

After listening to Baochai's words, Mrs. Wang thought for a while, and what Baochai said was not unreasonable, so she smiled and said: "In this case, my sister and Baoyatou can have a discussion and give me an answer tomorrow. Turn around, I also thank my sister and Bao girl for their great kindness!"

Aunt Xue was helpless. Although she was a little angry in her heart, she still smiled and said: "Yes, my sister's affairs are naturally my affairs. If I can help my sister, it is naturally my duty!"

Mrs. Wang nodded in satisfaction, turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something, looked back and smiled: "Don't worry, sister, I will naturally take care of the matter of Bao girl and Baoyu in the future, the lady in the palace The imperial decree is coming soon, sister and girl Bao can rest assured!"

Aunt Xue and Baochai had no choice but to nod reluctantly, Mrs. Wang nodded in satisfaction, turned around and took all the maids and women out!

Aunt Xue and Baochai glanced at each other, slumped on the chair, and said in a daze, "20 taels, where can I find it now?"

Aunt Xue thought about it for a long time, then looked at Baochai and sighed: "Now we have to borrow some money for your aunt, otherwise we will be insulted by others if we live here?"

After all, Baochai felt a little unwilling, and said bitterly: "If it weren't for that Hu Meizi, how could such a thing happen now? I don't know what they all think, but they actually fell in love with that Hu Meizi's enchanting charm! "

Aunt Xue sighed, looked at Baochai's resentful expression, and said, "Chai'er, we don't have the time to talk about anything now, so let's lend some to your aunt!"

Baochai nodded, still very unwilling in her heart, but now there is nothing she can do. After all, Daiyu is now the Princess of Beijing personally appointed by the Holy Majesty. If anything happens, she must be investigated to the end. Riri must find a chance to get rid of her, to avenge today's revenge!

Aunt Xue looked at Baochai's face full of unwillingness, so she sighed, took Baochai's hand and said, "Chai'er, let go of the unwillingness in my heart for now, my chai'er is beautiful, and there will be opportunities in the future. Let's wait a little bit, even if the imperial concubine Yuan's order comes down, it doesn't matter, after all, Jia's mansion can be regarded as the family of the royal family now, and my son's marriage can be regarded as full of Qingyun's ambitions in the usual days!"

Baochai nodded, even though she was extremely unwilling, she had to bow her head. After all, the status of an imperial merchant is not noble, and being able to marry Baoyu is already a great honor and dignity!

The hateful status of the imperial merchant, if there is a chance in the future, he must have a good life to settle today's account, the fingernails in the sleeves are secretly pinched, and the eyes are actually full of resentment!

Waking up in the early morning of the second day, Mother Jia got up and dressed up, ordered a congratulatory gift, and drove to Lin Ruhai's old mansion in the same carriage with Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing!

I feel a little uneasy, after all Daiyu's heart is cold now, she doesn't have the usual intimacy at all, and her heart is filled with remorse, if she had protected Daiyu well back then, she wouldn't have gotten into this situation now!

The carriage drove slowly, and after walking for about half an hour, we arrived at the old mansion of Lin's Mansion. Jia Mu sighed, helped Yuanyang's hand to get off the car, and looked at the plaque with the word "Lin Mansion" on it. Then he ordered the woman who accompanied him to come forward and pass the door sticker to the concierge!

The concierge saw that it was a post from Jia's mansion, and smiled coldly, how could his young lady suffer so much grievance in their Jia's mansion, how could she let it go?

Daiyu was playing chess with Lin Xin, when she heard Jiamu coming, she was slightly taken aback, and smiled lightly, but Lin Xin was furious in her heart, this Jia's mansion is too ignorant, Daiyu just left Jia's mansion yesterday, today It's here!

So she wanted to tell the housekeeper, "The Jia family members, why let them in? Just reject them!" Daiyu raised her hand to stop the housekeeper, thought for a moment, looked at Lin Xin with a smile, and said, "Brother , since they're here, let them come in, I'm naturally hesitant, and it's better to cut off their thoughts once, so as to save no one's life, and I'll keep talking!"

Seeing Daiyu's words, Lin Xin understood that Daiyu must be calculating, so she nodded and said, "Since my sister speaks like that, let's invite everyone from the Jia family to come in!" The steward nodded after listening, Take orders and go!

Daiyu felt a little sentimental in her heart. After all, she was her grandmother, who had lived in Jia's mansion for many years, so she also had some feelings in it. Seeing Lin Xin go out, she got up and went back to the inner room!

The housekeeper of Lin's house looked at the people of Jia's house who were like swallow wings standing outside the door, smiled coldly, and then said indifferently: "Although Lin's house is not a house of rich and powerful, it is also the old residence of the former inspector of salt, and also the residence of the Holy Majesty." The front door cannot be easily opened in a place of relatives, if everyone in Jia's mansion wants to enter the mansion, please come in through the corner gate!"
