The Rongjudai of the Red Chamber

The four big families are intertwined, one is damaged and the other is prosperous. In recent years, because of a noble concubine in the Jia family, they have been rampant and unscrupulous. The remaining royal family and historians.

The current head of the Wang family is Wang Xifeng's father and Mrs. Wang's brother. Li Meng's holy favor was transferred to the nine provinces inspectorate and appointed as a foreign post. Of course it is a fat job, and it is a position that many people want to curry favor with. The son of Wang's family married Wu Li, the daughter of the Marquis of Jinxiang, and his popularity was comparable to that of the Jia family. After all, the Wu family also had a noble concubine in the palace. family.

Historians are a little bit lower. It is nothing more than relying on Jia's family and Jia's mother, and just now has a place in the court. Back then, Xiangyun and Nan'an Concubine had a good relationship. Son-in-law, who would have thought that he would lose his son-in-law and even offend the concubine Nan'an, and gradually draw a clear line with the historians, let alone have no contact with each other. Such a downfall.

Although the Jia family is now in decline, the concubine Yuan in the palace is only reduced to a concubine Yuan, and there is still a glimmer of hope in everyone's hearts. Hou Jinxiang was originally loyal to the family of Prince Zhongshun, and his participation in the affairs of Prince Zhongyi was also indispensable. Concubine Wu of Zhongwu even lowered her concubine Yuan to be a concubine Yuan, and tried to win over concubine Yuan in every possible way, just to network the royal family and historians for use by the Zhongshun Palace.

Jia's mother had taken care of her for quite a while, and her health just got better. She walked out the door holding Yuanyang's hand, and looked at the deserted scenery outside the door, feeling even more desolate in her heart. Now that he has fallen to such a point, how can he not feel resentful in his heart?

Mrs. Xing meandered over with all the women and maidservants, looked at Jia Mu standing in the yard, she was slightly stunned, then stepped forward and said with a smile: "Why is the old lady up? It's windy here, let's go back to the house and rest."

Mother Jia glanced at Mrs. Xing, snorted coldly, straightened her messy white hair, and said, "How about the things you are asked to do now? Baoyu has heard the news, and the second wife may release it." After all, Wang Ziteng is now inspected by the Nine Provinces, and the second wife is also his sister, how can he not be released?"

Mrs. Xing groaned slightly, then looked carefully at Mother Jia, and said with a smile: "The daughter-in-law is looking around now, but she can't find any news about Baoyu, but the daughter-in-law also doesn't know about the second wife." Mrs. Xing He sneered secretly in his heart, even if he could save Mrs. Wang, why should he try so hard to get better? When Mrs. Wang comes out, wouldn't the second wife still be in power in this family?

Seeing Mrs. Xing's face, Jiamu snorted coldly, and said with a sneer, "Even if the second wife didn't come out, this family can't let you mess around again. Hand over all the cards and hand them over to me. But it is more than enough to control a Jia family."

Looking at Wang Shanbao's family behind Mrs. Xing with cold eyes, he said coldly: "Go and gather all the women and maids. From now on, I will talk to me about all the big and small things in this family. If there is even the slightest concealment, I will never let you go lightly, no matter what. , our Jia family's face is still important, as long as there is a glimmer of hope for the concubine Yuan in the palace, we must not give up."

The cold look in Wang Shanbao's family shuddered. Mrs. Xing was also a little afraid of Jiamu's expression. Although she was extremely unwilling, Jia Amnesty was only the adopted child of Jiamu, so naturally she couldn't say anything. He could only submissively order his mother-in-law to take the pair of cards, and reluctantly handed them to Jia Mu, and even secretly withheld a sum of money in her pocket.

Sitting in the main hall, Jia's mother looked at the women and men outside the door, and said: "Although the Jia family is not as good as before, everyone is still indispensable. I call you here today to tell you that the family members in this family are now The housekeeper is still me, and Second Mistress Lian, if anyone dares to disobey in the future, they will be severely punished."

As he spoke, he beckoned Sister Feng to come forward, looked at Sister Feng's somewhat thin face, and sighed softly: "My good boy, I have wronged you these days." His sharp eyes looked at Mrs. Jia Shejia, Lianxing, who was at the side.

Sister Feng smiled lightly, with a little desire for power in her eyes, and said: "The old lady loves her, and my granddaughter-in-law is living a very clean life these days. The eldest wife handles all the big and small things in the family, but it also gives the granddaughter-in-law a little rest. .”

Mother Jia patted Sister Feng's hand and said: "Forget it, you will have to worry about the big and small things in this family in the future. All these years, the old ancestors have seen everything decently, and they are not as good as some." The daughter-in-laws on the table are much better, after all, they are the daughters of our family, and those from small families are incomparable."

Mrs. Xing's face turned pale when she heard this, and Jia Amnesty also had a look of displeasure on her face, but she didn't dare to say anything. After all, she was the adoptive son of Jia's mother. If Jia's mother sued the Yamen, she would really be kicked out of Jia's house, and now she can only wait and see what happens, looking at the old man's aging appearance, if he can get the treasures and other things in her hands, he will get rid of her immediately to calm his heart hatred.

However, since the accident between Mrs. Wang and Baoyu, Jia Zheng has not spoken a word, and now the Qing people in the sect have disappeared without a trace, but they are fawning on the many people in the Ning Mansion, which makes Jia Zheng sigh a little. Reading poems and reading in the study outside, staying at Aunt Zhao's place at night, has gradually improved Aunt Zhao's status, and the maids in the mansion have gradually changed their direction, flattering Mrs. People are thrown aside.

Sister Feng nodded after hearing this, and gradually some spirits revived in her eyes, like a phoenix returning again. Li Wan stood behind Jiamu, seeing Sister Feng's expression full of fighting spirit, and sighed more and more deeply, that's all, now the mansion People even think that they and Jia Lan are nothing. Jia Lan is obviously the eldest grandson of the Jia family, but he has been ignored to such an extent. Now that he can take good care of Jia Lan, he will rely on Jia Lan for the rest of his life. Lan.

When Sister Feng returned to power, the first thing she did was beat her mother-in-law who bullied her forty times. The silver taels needed must pass through his own hands, which made Jia Lian even more resentful, but now Sister Feng is backed by Jia's mother, and even Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Xing don't say anything. It is also a lot of peace.

This kind of scene made Sister Feng feel a little proud, and a little excited to see the rich and powerful as her life, but deep in her heart, she sighed. Jia Mu ordered her to be in charge of the family, nothing more than watching the Wang family flourishing now, otherwise how could she recover herself? when?Well, if Jia Lian can be corrected now, even if something bad happens in the future, the husband and wife can stay together, but I don't think it's just Sister Feng's wishful thinking.

Taking over the accounts was even more frightening. Mrs. Xing took away more than half of the family property that was already almost exhausted. Now, although the various expenses of the mansion are less, they are even more stretched, showing signs of decay everywhere. .

Mother Jia looked at the ledger held by Sister Feng, and her face became even more angry. She threw her hands and dropped the teacup on the ground, but she was helpless. After all, Mrs. Xing moved the money without any evidence, even if He pointed out that Mrs. Xing might not admit it, but added another joke to the Jia family.

It took a while for Jia's mother to calm down the anger in her heart. After pondering for a long time, she looked at Sister Feng and said, "Forget it, let's put this matter down for now. I have my own ideas. I must not let the Jia's affairs leak in the slightest, otherwise it will be serious." There is no place for us to stand, this matter must be kept tight-lipped, and we are not allowed to reveal half a word, have you heard?"

Sister Feng nodded and said, "It's just that there is really no way to deal with the second wife's matter now." Jia Mu pondered for a long time, and said, "I have my own opinion on this matter. Take down the golden chime bell in my room and go The pawn shop pawned some money, at least it cleared up the eunuchs and maids in the palace, and could also inquire about some news about the concubines of Yuan, as long as the empress is well, we can be well too."

Sister Feng nodded and said, "I know this myself. Don't worry, old lady." Grandson, no matter what, let no one ruin it. No matter what the price is, Baoyu must be rescued. Seeing Jia's mother sinking into deep thought, Sister Feng felt a little more sad in her heart, and bowed out holding the account book .

Ping'er helped Sister Feng to walk slowly, and said softly: "Second Mistress, why do you carry on the heavy burden of the house again? It's hard for you to relax. You should take care of yourself."

Sister Feng smiled sadly and said, "Do you think I think so? If not, you know very well what kind of life we ​​live with the eldest lady. Qiaoer is my darling. I can't take Qiaoer away." The days to come will be delayed, not to mention, how could the old lady let the Wang family go, my housekeeper is just like in the past, becoming a puppet under the old lady's hands."

Ping'er also sighed when she heard this, she naturally understood Sister Feng's thoughts, she raised her eyes to look at the blue sky, held Sister Feng's hand and walked slowly into the house, the master and servant had different thoughts along the way. Different, but they are all helpless to this day.

After returning to the room, she saw Jia Lian sitting in the courtyard and playing with Qiu Tong. Sister Feng frowned secretly, feeling even more frustrated in her heart. It seemed that no matter what, Jia Lian's temper could not be changed.

Seeing Sister Feng and Heping'er come in, Qiu Tong hurriedly got up, bowed her hand to greet Sister Feng, but Jia Lian did not say anything, but the mocking look in her eyes made Sister Feng even more annoyed.

Sister Feng smiled faintly, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said, "Second Master was so excited that he brought the maid from the Grand Master's room into our courtyard." Jia Lian said, "That's Grandma's fault. The old man saw grandma working hard every day, but she neglected the service in the room, so he specially rewarded Qiutong to me, no, I brought Qiutong here to wait for the second grandma?"

When Sister Feng heard this, her face turned pale with shock, and her heart felt even more desolate. She originally thought that she would take over the power of housekeeper of Jia's house, be able to control Jia Lian, lead Jia Lian back to the right path, and care about her future life. developed to this point.

The strong loss and heartache in her heart, although no longer as strong as that day, still made Sister Feng's face turn pale.

Seeing Jia Lian's smug face, Sister Feng suppressed her sadness, and said with a faint smile: "In that case, let Qiu Tong serve the second master well. I have other things, so I can't watch you flirting. Easy." Turning around and supporting Ping'er's hand, she walked in, but there were unstoppable tears falling from the corners of her eyes, it seems that in the future, sister Qiao and her life can only be planned by herself, and Jia Lian is not in the slightest. He didn't take himself and sister Qiao'er seriously.

Seeing Sister Feng crying, Ping'er felt sentimental in her heart. Turning around to look at the proud Jia Lian and Qiu Tong who couldn't hide her smile, she felt even more sad for Sister Feng. How can I not make Sister Feng sad?

The weather is getting colder and the people's hearts are gradually cooling down. Although Sister Feng regained power, she hides her edge even more. I am satisfied, with Sister Feng in Jia's house, the Wang family can't break the relationship, and it must be able to pull the Jia family a little bit.

Inside Prince Zhongshun's mansion, Princess Zhongshun walked into Shui Jian's study, looked at Shui Jian standing by the window, and was also silent. Shui Jian heard footsteps behind him, turned around and said, "How?"

Princess Zhongshun said: "As the lord expected." Shui Jian nodded lightly, and said: "This Jia family's matter is an excellent drama, everyone is an excellent actor, no matter what, they want to cling to If the Wang family doesn't let go, why don't we bring them in together? After all, the power under the Jia family these years should not be underestimated, not to mention that the title and official position of the Ning Mansion have not been dismissed. Together with the wealth of the Wang family, our chances of winning Isn't it bigger?"

Princess Zhongshun nodded, and said: "Nowadays, Concubine Wu Guifei and Concubine Yuan in the palace are even more likely to join forces. It will also be an excellent opportunity for our family. After all, they are in the palace. When necessary, we can also They can be used."

Shui Jian nodded, suddenly remembered something and asked: "How is Xianya doing now?" Princess Zhongshun's eyes looked sad, and she said with a smile: "Xianya is nothing more than that now, after all, she is the county monarch in the court, Princess Huacheng and Princess Huacheng. Young Master Dingyu doesn't dare to do anything."

Prince Zhongshun sneered and said: "Then Dingyu's temperament is cruel, and elegance may not be able to get any benefits, anyway, since she can't hurt her life, it can be regarded as a lesson for her. If we stay in power in the future, naturally we won't be able to wrong her .”

Princess Zhongshun nodded, and said coldly: "If it weren't for that Princess Beijing, why would Xianya have such a thing? The palace and Prince Beijing are heartbroken."

Shui Jian snorted coldly, and said: "How can this matter be so easy? Not to mention that Princess Bei Jing is pregnant now, and there must be many people around her to protect her. The power of that kid Shui Rong cannot be underestimated." Well, for all these years, he has made trouble for us both openly and secretly, which is enough to show that there is a dark force under him that we cannot touch. Do harm to him, don't push him into a hurry, let their brothers join forces, then we will lose more than we gain."

"Besides, Princess Beijing is just a weak woman. How can the affairs of the court be brought on her head? After all, the affairs of Xianya are her own fault, and she can't blame others." There was a sense of protection in the unconscious words , let Concubine Zhongshun secretly startled, and felt even more uncomfortable.

Shui Jian also seemed to feel that his words were a little too much, and immediately said: "These things are not the time yet, and if it is necessary, they will definitely not be relentless. Don't act rashly now, you go down first."

Princess Zhongshun agreed and backed out. The water soaked in her breath, she turned around and stood by the window, quietly looking at the green leaves outside the window. He couldn't help but smile, but immediately froze, he shook off the thoughts in his mind, turned around and took the books on the case, but couldn't read a single word.

Throwing away the books in his hands, he walked to the desk, raised his brush to draw, but accidentally drew a beautiful figure, hurriedly tore up the drawing paper on the desk, took a deep breath, and condensed his eyes, now is the critical time , don't get confused, if you win in the future, everything is not in your own hands, why think about a person who has nothing to do with you, get rid of annoying thoughts, try to calm down the stormy waves in your heart, and suppress what you shouldn't have thoughts.

Shui Rong leaned against the railing on the promenade, looking at the bright moonlight, sipping the tea in his hand, a cold smile flashed in his eyes, this Jia Mu is very concerned about her grandson, for her daughter-in-law She and her grandson are really unscrupulous, and she even helped Wang Xifeng to be the housekeeper and grandma again, which is also her ability. After all, Jia Amnesty does not dare to act now, and in the future, she will shake off the things about her back then, and her good days will come to an end up.

Thinking of the water seepage, the color of the watery eyes became deeper like the sea, bloodthirsty in the eyes like an eagle, he crushed the teacup in his hand, turning it into powder, if the water seepage had thoughts that he shouldn't have, he would definitely crush him to pieces Ten thousand paragraphs, ten thousand generations shall not be reborn!

He got up and walked back to the house, opened the bead curtain, looked at Daiyu on the ivory bed, his eyes softened, looked at Daiyu affectionately, took off his coat, kissed Daiyu's tender red lips, and said softly Lying on the bed, Daiyu turned over and snuggled into Shui Rong's arms, a sweet smile rippling on her lips, Shui Rong also smiled affectionately, and fell asleep together with Daiyu in her arms.
