Dream of the Red Chamber: Rong Dai

"What?" After hearing this, Jia's mother stared closely at the girl's face. She was covered in rags, but her face was clear and white, and she was a delicate girl.

Shui Rong saw the shocked faces of Madam Xing and Madam Wang, then smiled coldly, pointed to Madam Wang and said, "Do you recognize her?" Madam Wang pointed at her with trembling lips, and said in a voiceless voice: "Aren't you dead? ?"

At this time, the woman looked at Mrs. Wang with cold and resentful eyes, and said: "You think I should die, but I want to die. It will be better if I die." The roar made Mrs. Wang even more frightened.

The woman sitting on the ground is that Xiao Wu, now seeing everyone in Jia's residence, she can't help feeling more and more angry, she just scanned everyone with resentment with her eyes, and finally fixed on Daiyu, feeling soft Laying down softly, she wept, "Girl, please spare the slave for the sake of serving you."

Daiyu couldn't bear to see her like this, but she hardened her heart, took a breath, looked at Xiao Wu quietly, and said indifferently, "Although you have served me once, what you have done Don't you have the slightest remorse for what you did? It's not that I didn't give you a chance, it's that you didn't seize it yourself. "

With a soft sigh, a few tears fell down, and she offered incense to the ancestors of Jia's family. One is that it is Jia Min's natal family after all, and the other is that the deceased is the greatest. It is not worth offering a stick of incense to her. A complete severance of Jia's family can be regarded as breaking Jia's mother's mind.

When Jia's mother heard Daiyu's words, she felt trembling all over, but it turned out that they chose the place in the Jia family's ancestral hall to expose their descendants in front of the Jia family's ancestors. I only felt a chill, but Daiyu was so unfeeling.

Shui Rong held Daiyu's cold little hand, lowered his head and smiled, and felt relieved when he saw Daiyu's relieved face. He only looked at Jia's mother and said, "This king said that she is the flesh and blood of your Jia family. Old lady Jia is interested." know?"

Jia's mother felt that it was difficult to accept any unbearable facts in her heart at this time, and in front of the entire Jia family's ancestors, she felt cold sweat all over her body, and said: "I don't want to know, I don't want to know. This girl is nothing but She is a lowly woman, not a member of the Jia family that the lord said, I don't know her, our Jia family's government should stop talking nonsense."

"Presumptuous?" Shui Rong snorted coldly, clapped his palms on the nanmu table, stood up and coldly pointed at Xiao Wu who was lying on the ground, and said: "If you say what kind of identity she is, the eldest wife in your mansion knows best."

After hearing this, everyone turned their gazes to Mrs. Xing. They couldn't imagine that Mrs. Xing, who was usually cowardly and respected by Jia Amnesty, would know such a thing?

Mrs. Xing saw everyone's eyes turned to her, and she couldn't feel her heart trembling. In front of so many people, if there was the slightest mistake, wouldn't it mean that she would never be able to recover?

Mother Jia glanced at Mrs. Xing sharply, raised her finger to point at Mrs. Xing and said, "Say."

Mrs. Xing was secretly anxious. Seeing everyone looking at her with burning eyes, she felt even more astonished, so she knelt down and said, "Old lady, you have to investigate clearly. How can a daughter-in-law know about the Jia family's flesh and blood?"

Mother Jia's face was livid, but she couldn't find any bias from Mrs. Xing, so she was about to turn around and tell Shui Rong Daiyu sternly, but Shui Rong stopped her from speaking.

With a half-smile, he got up and paced, walked to Mrs. Xing's side, and said coldly: "Where is the boy who was born by the eldest wife 17 years ago?"

Mrs. Xing felt dizzy when she heard this, she turned to look up at Shui Rong, and said, "Where is that child, Lord Beijing?" A boy, a white and fat child, died not long after he was born, her child.

No, since Shui Rong is mentioned now, isn't that child dead?

"Yes, the child you gave birth to is not dead, and is still alive and well."

"where is he?"

Shui Rong paced slowly, looked at the pale faces of Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, and said with a faint smile: "I have been praised by your mansion for 17 years. No one knows about the psychic gem, what do you say?" who is he?"

When Jia Mu heard this, she gasped, looked at Mrs. Wang in disbelief, stepped forward and grabbed her by the collar, and shouted: "Please tell me clearly, what is going on with Baoyu? "

The Mrs. Wang was still sitting on the ground madly at this time, playing with the torn hair, looking at Jia Mu's face, she felt very frightened, so she knelt down and said: "Forgive me, old lady, forgive me, old lady!" , my daughter-in-law didn’t deliberately hide it from you, Zhu’er’s child has been ill for a long time, and there’s nothing my wife can do about it.”

Mrs. Xing could no longer control herself after hearing this, she stepped forward and surrounded Mrs. Wang with Jia Amnesty, and said sharply, "Tell me, what's going on? Whose child is Baoyu?" Staring at Mrs. Wang's trembling lips, Mrs. Xing felt trembling all over and couldn't restrain herself.

Seeing Mrs. Xing standing in front of her eyes, Mrs. Wang unconsciously raised the corners of her lips. She looked at Mrs. Xing disdainfully and said, "You will never compare me to me in your life. I have a noble concubine, I have a treasure like Zhuer, I am There is a child like Baoyu, all of them are top-notch, and they are all cherished by the old lady."

"Hehe, so what about the child you gave birth to, it ended up in my hands, haha."

With a "slap", Mrs. Xing slapped Mrs. Wang until her face was swollen, but no one stepped forward to dissuade her. She could only be shocked by what Mrs. Wang said. That Baoyu was not born by Mrs. Wang, but was Is Mrs. Xing born?

Shui Rong sneered coldly, and said: "That day you handed over the baby girl you gave birth to to the Zhou Rui's family who was next to you, but ordered someone to replace the dead baby with Jia Xing's family. You really thought you did it without anyone noticing it. ?”

"Daughter?" Mrs. Wang came to her senses when she heard the word "daughter", and hurried to the front, asking, "Where is my daughter? Where is my daughter?"

Shui Rong only glanced at Mrs. Wang, and didn't respond to her words, but everyone in the Jia family stared at Xiao Wu on the ground, stunned in disbelief.

Examining Xiao Wu's face carefully, he really resembled Mrs. Wang's personality, and he became more and more convinced. Jia Zheng lost all his strength in an instant, and could only sit on the chair. , staring at Mrs. Wang in disbelief.

Xiao Wu lying on the ground suddenly shook her head unconsciously, "No, I'm not, I'm not." Mrs. Wang ordered her to poison Daiyu to such a degree that she didn't want it, she would rather just be someone who charged Mrs. Wang. Qiancai's little maid also couldn't accept that she was harmed to such an extent by her own mother.

Mrs. Wang immediately fell to the ground when she heard these words. At this time, her mind gradually came to her senses, and she felt that it was becoming more and more unacceptable. At this moment, her head seemed to be unable to think about other things anymore, and all she could think about was that Xiao Wu was her. Her daughter, her daughter was harmed to such an extent.

"No." Suddenly stood up with disheveled hair, pointed at Xiao Wu on the ground and screamed sadly: "She is not my daughter, my daughter is a noble concubine with golden branches and jade leaves, what is she, how can she be worthy of being my daughter."

No, no, she was just a little maid she bought, what's more, when Daiyu fell ill, she sent someone to push her off the cliff, she was not her daughter.

Shui Rong saw the unbearable tears in Daiyu's eyes, and unconsciously clenched Daiyu's arm, Daiyu barely supported her figure, looked back and smiled at Shui Rong, leaning on Chunxian and watching quietly they.

At this moment, the crowd was in a mess, they all looked at the crazy Mrs. Wang and the maddened Mrs. Xing with unbelieving eyes.

Mrs. Xing saw Mrs. Wang like this, she couldn't help laughing, and said: "Retribution, it really is retribution. Back then you took my child away, made me so sad, and made me have no place in this family. This is retribution. retribution."

"So, you handed the curly sunflowers and taro cakes to Jia Wang's family by a charlatan?"

Mrs. Xing's smile hadn't subsided yet, her eyes widened in shock at Shui Rong's words, she turned her head and said, "How do you know?"

The crowd became more and more stupefied when they heard it, and they didn't want to believe what they heard. The mother of Jia was so angry that she almost fainted, and said: "Okay, okay, okay, you two are good."

Unexpectedly, these two vicious women have ruined the century-old reputation of the Jia family to such an extent, they stole the dragon and turned it into a phoenix, and exchanged that precious jade, but threw out their own little daughter.

Mrs. Xing looked at the shocked faces of the crowd, and suddenly smiled and said: "Yes, I gave those things to you back then, who would have thought that you would have been fooled."

Looking at Mrs. Wang with resentful eyes, she said: "You are the daughter-in-law of the second room, why should the power and housekeeping of the family fall into your hands? She Jia Min is just a fluffy girl, why do you all treat her like this?" ?”

"The Jia family is our master, and it should be my child. How could it be you? As long as any of you block my way, I will drive you all to death. So what if you are poisoned by Jerusalem artichoke? Now you are also going to harm Yun Princess Dai’s? We each have our own goals, what right do you have to accuse me and then talk about me?”

Looking at Jiamu's eyes became more and more resentful, and said: "I am the eldest daughter-in-law of this family, why do you support the daughter-in-law of the second room to be the wife of the housekeeper, and then let my daughter-in-law come to work with you? Serving you obediently, how come you Baoyu married a daughter-in-law and kicked my daughter-in-law back, and left a bad body that was disastrous to make a wedding dress with others?"

She was subdued and cowardly all her life, just to wait for the opportunity, but she knew that her only chance was to know that her child had no chance to grow up, so she hated it, so she tried to let Mrs. Wang do the thing that poisoned Jia Min, and when the time came If he is defeated, Mrs. Wang will be able to leave Jia's house.

But she made a wrong calculation. Although Mrs. Wang is not a smart person, she is not an idiot either. She never let anyone catch her when she poisoned Jia Min. She only said that Jia Min was weak.

"Second wife, you have flaunted your power for a lifetime, but you have only come to this point. Do you know that Xiao Wu was sent by me to come with the taro cake and the purple smoke of the Holy Day? It just so happens that you want to bribe her again, so then It just happened to fall into my trick, even if I fail, I will still be able to eradicate you."

"You colluded with the Zhen family in the south of the Yangtze River to poison the three-year-old Lin Qingyu of the Lin family, and Jia Min, who was already weak, died. This is great news for you, isn't it?"

"You?" Mrs. Wang pointed at Mrs. Xing in amazement, and Mrs. Xing laughed unknowingly: "Do you always feel that what you do is invisible? I don't know who doesn't understand your measurement? Don’t you really understand? Or do you understand that you dress foolishly, turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye, isn’t it all because of your noble concubine’s daughter?”

"I let someone take that assorted sachet, and made you rush to copy the Grand View Garden, and kicked out those romantic maids. It was you who discredited your own daughter, what else could others do?"

Seeing Mrs. Xing's insolent appearance, Jia's mother suddenly burst into anger, but she only slapped Mrs. Xing's face with all her anger, and angrily reprimanded: "You bitch, how dare you do such a thing?" What happened to you, how crazy are you for your little selfishness?"

Daiyu was in a daze, even though she knew the whole story earlier, she couldn't help the desolation in her heart now, but it turned out that her mother's mother's family actually harbored such a person, she couldn't help but shed tears.

The heart became more and more cold as ice, and the ugly behavior that the snow outside the window could not cover, polluted the white snow and the red plums like blood in vain.

Seeing Mrs. Xing's frenzied appearance, everyone couldn't help being stunned. It took a long time for Sister Feng to come back to her senses, but she felt chills all over her body. She looked up at the tablets of the ancestors of the Jia family and felt the white candle shaking. , Unknowingly, a creepy feeling rose up.

"Haha, now you are really retribution, revealing this matter, your daughter has been harmed to such a degree by you, but it is considered kind, and it is not a kind of kindness to let her know her clan name before she dies." kind?"

Shui Rong didn't want to hear any more, so he waved his hands and said: "Now that the two of them have committed such a heinous crime, you can just arrest them. If there are any intercessors, this king will not forgive them lightly. Take them away." Several officers and soldiers came in, After escorting Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing out, everyone in the room was even more silent at this moment, only the sound of breathing was heard in silence.

Seeing Daiyu's pale face, Shui Rong lowered his head and said, "Dai'er, since the matter has been clarified, you go back to rest on the phoenix chariot first, and I will come over later, and let Chunxian and the others accompany you." Wiping away the tears from the corners of Daiyu's eyes, Shui Rong felt a little distressed.

Daiyu reluctantly raised her eyes and smiled, looking at Shui Rong more and more distressed, gently holding her small white hand, smiled and gave Daiyu some encouragement: "Dai'er." The crowd who couldn't help but smiled lightly and said: "I'll wait for you outside." Shui Rong nodded, looked at the maids serving beside him, and said: "It's good to serve the princess."

After Daiyu walked out, Mother Jia seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and raised her eyes to look at Shui Rong, unable to express the meaning in her eyes, only knowing that now all the statements of the Jia family have been defeated, what's more, Even the descendants of Jia's family can do this.

"Why?" Jia Mu's face suddenly became very excited, she pointed at Shui Rong and said, "What good will this do for you?"

Shui Rong waved away Jia's mother's fingers, looked at her crying expression, and said with a cold smile: "There are many benefits, your Jia family owes so much to the Lin family, you should have paid it back long ago."

Unfolding the imperial decree that he had been holding in his hand, Shui Rong glanced coldly at everyone in Jia's mansion, and said: "Following the heavens, the emperor's edict said: Rongguo mansion was in vain as the former emperor's imperial mansion, and what he did made me very disappointed. Save Jia All officials and merchants were pardoned and suspended for investigation. Concubine Yuan, who was demoted to concubine, still did not know how to repent. Temporarily living in the Qingyou Palace and contemplating behind closed doors. This is bestowed upon me."

After hearing this imperial decree, all the mothers of Jia fell to the ground, sweating coldly on their foreheads, staring blankly at the imperial decree in Shui Rong's hand, unable to respond for a long time.

She was demoted to a nobleman, and the imperial concubine Yuan was demoted to a nobleman in the blink of an eye. How could this embarrass the Jia family?Jia Zhengjia pardoned hereditary post, this can be described as a series of disasters, I was shocked that I was still in front of the tablets of the ancestors of Jia's family, and I couldn't help but feel more and more dizzy, a mouthful of blood spewed out, and Jia's mother fainted immediately on the ground.

Shui Rong smiled coldly, and let everyone in the house be in a mess, feeling a little anxious about Daiyu, strode out of the ancestral hall.

"I beg the lord to be merciful, save my brother, my little girl is willing to be a slave, please be merciful to the lord." Unconsciously, Shui Rong was caught by Xue Baochai who had been waiting outside the door, and was furious in his heart, and kicked Xue Baochai away. Let her roll down the steps, watching the blood on her face trickle down the corner of her mouth, and said coldly: "What kind of thing are you, a slave and a handmaid, are you worthy?"

Shui Rong drew the sword from his waist, took the cloak from Xiao Luzi and put it on his body, and strode out of the gate of Ning Mansion.

That Baochai fell on the snow, the blood from the corner of his mouth kept flowing down the white snow, he clenched his fists unconsciously, and looked at the direction of Shui Rong's departure with vicious eyes.

Grand Concubine Bei Jing embraced the distraught Daiyu in her arms, glared at Shui Rong angrily and said, "I won't let you take Yu'er there, but you won't listen, but what's wrong with Yu'er now?"

Shui Rong glanced coldly at Concubine Bei Jing, took off her robe, threw it to Xiao Luzi, and said, "Go burn it, dirty." Xiao Luzi was in a cold sweat when he heard it, and hurriedly responded Go outside.

Seeing Shui Rong like this, Daiyu sighed softly: "Auntie doesn't need to be like this, you have to know sooner or later, it's better to know sooner, Daiyu doesn't want to be protected by Brother Rong, Yu'er also wants to know the whole story, sooner If you understand that you can let go earlier, it will be broken if you break it.”

Grand Concubine Bei Jing caressed her blue hair and nodded, said with a smile: "That's reasonable. In the future, when I come to this Beijing Palace, there will be many tedious and troublesome things. Don't you just keep hiding because you don't want to? It’s not a long-term solution.”

Daiyu's concerned eyes looked at Shui Rong, but her face turned red after all, she didn't know how to persuade Shui Rong, Princess Bei Jing saw it clearly, and said: "Forget it, you go and change your clothes first, like this, wait a while It’s cold, you deserve it, but the tired Yu’er is worried about looking at you, does it hurt?”

Shui Rong glanced at Concubine Beijing, looked at Daiyu and said, "Dai'er, are you really okay?" Daiyu shook her head, and said with a light smile, "It's okay." Shui Rong nodded, and said, "Concubine Mother Stay with Dai'er for a while, and my son will come whenever he goes."

Seeing Shui Rong walk out of the house, Concubine Bei Jing held Daiyu in her arms, smiled lightly and said, "You don't have to worry about it anymore, you just have to dress up and prepare to be a bride."

Daiyu's pretty face was blushing, and finally she sighed and murmured, "Since that's the case, why did you hand over the 60 taels of silver to me?"

"The century-old family, what else can't she see through? She stayed in the retreat, and there will be a retreat with you and her descendants in the future. I have to say that she is not a good grandmother, but she is a woman who can revitalize the family. The wise woman, there will still be time in the future, I am afraid she will not give up so easily."

Daiyu sighed softly, buried her head in the arms of Concubine Beijing, tears fell down quietly, but she completely cut off all pity.

The wind and snow are blowing in, and it's already the Spring Festival. The whole capital is filled with joy. The Jia mansion alone is bleak and desolate. In previous years, there were exchanges of courtesy, and there were contacts with those royal and waiting mansions, because this year Jia's mansion was full of disasters and disasters. Difficult, the concubine Yuan was demoted, only a few families gave gifts, and no one invited them to the mansion as guests.

The affairs of the Jia mansion were spread out, and for a while the entire capital was discussing the matter of the Jia mansion, all saying that it was the retribution of the Jia mansion, and even secretly sighed secretly, this is a common thing for everyone At this time, the people who originally wanted to propose marriage to the Jia family gradually lost their minds, so what if Miss Jia is rare?Having such a natal family, not only cannot help them, but may actually hinder their future.

Looking at Jia's mansion again, except for the couplets pasted on the door, the rest are all deserted.Just because the two wives of Xing Wang were imprisoned at home, that year became more and more dull. Jia She saw that Mrs. Xing was imprisoned, so he hurriedly wrote a letter of divorce, and had someone take him into the prison. Mrs. Xing pressed her fingerprints and went to the yamen to cancel the relationship between husband and wife.

That Xue Baochai was thinking of ways to save Xue Pan every day, but because of the reluctance of the Duke of Zhenguo, Xue Pan was sentenced to death and beheaded after autumn, just because Mrs. Wang was imprisoned, and their mother and daughter People are even less interested.

Sister Feng secretly let the mother-in-law run on them both overtly and secretly, keeping them away from Jia's mansion without saying anything, and the Xue family's mother and daughter just pretended not to know, and often slipped past.

Just because the two kings of Xing admitted that Jia Amnesty insisted on taking the precious jade back and bringing him to be educated, Jia Zheng was also disheartened and no longer cared about Jia Amnesty's methods, and only took the precious jade to him. Leave it to Jia Amnesty to take care of.

Jia Shen and Jia Zheng were dismissed from the official position, and all the source of the family was the rent from the village. Jia Shen's mind was naturally moved, and he unknowingly set his sights on the Sanchun sisters.
