[Red Mansion+Qing Chuan] The heroine comes from the last days

Mrs. Wang's face was a little ugly.

Jia Yuanchun asked the steward's daughters-in-law again, and learned that the mansion had been unable to make ends meet as early as a year and a half ago, and now it is spending money like running water, draining the not-so-well-off family property, and feeling more and more unhappy taste.But Mrs. Wang is her own mother, even if she has some complaints in her heart, it is not good to say it out loud, so as not to be laughed at by others.

After looking at the account books in the mansion, Jia Yuanchun called Xue Baochai and Wang Xifeng to him and asked some questions.

Now the man in charge of the mansion is Xue Baochai, so Wang Xifeng is naturally at a disadvantage.And because Wang Xifeng fell ill during confinement back then, and has not recovered until now, so she ignored things even more.Jia Yuanchun asked ten questions, eight of which were answered by Xue Baochai, Mrs. Wang interjected, and the last one was echoed by Wang Xifeng.Seeing this situation, Jia Yuanchun became even more unhappy.

The questioning ended hastily.

"Go out, I want to take a rest." Jia Yuanchun said wearily, "Let Baoqin serve beside me, and no one else needs to come in. Baochai is the young mistress in charge of the house, so let's go there with the wives in charge. Mother stay here, I have something to say to my mother."

Everyone responded sparsely, Xue Baochai took the steward's wives out together, Wang Xifeng also left, leaving Mrs. Wang alone.Baoqin served them tea, then stood quietly aside, serving their mother and daughter.

It was Mrs. Wang who spoke first: "Do you have any countermeasures?" referring to the predicament in the mansion.

Jia Yuanchun shook his head, his face became more and more ugly.

"My mother should know better than me about all the big and small things in the mansion." Jia Yuanchun said, "Everyone in the mansion is in danger now, even most of the original maids have dispersed. The masters didn't even know what was going on, and tried to tear up the mansion!...Mother, don't be angry, this matter is not aimed at you alone. "

Mrs. Wang's complexion changed, but she didn't attack.

Jia Yuanchun breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Maybe this time, I will stay in the mansion for a longer time. It happens that I can't live in the palace. I will ask Baochai to ask Baochai if I really want to share Home, how should we deal with the Grand View Garden. After cleaning up the garden, we should be able to clean up a lot of property, and it will last for a while."

Mrs. Wang suddenly interjected, "That garden is the family-visiting villa built for you back then."

The implication is that even if the family is to be separated, it should belong to Jia Yuanchun and stay in the second room.

Jia Yuanchun sighed and said, "Let's see. Let Baoyu come to me tomorrow, and I have something to ask him. Also, how many shops and farms in the mansion have been sold off? Leave a charter and let me have a look. It's getting late today, let Baochai and the others come over to reconcile the accounts tomorrow. I'm tired, so mother can go to rest." Then let Baoqin help him get up.

Mrs. Wang pressed Jia Yuanchun's hand, stared into her eyes and asked, "Tell mother honestly, what's going on in the palace? Why did you go back to the mansion after being so well-behaved?"

Jia Yuanchun's expression froze, and he said, "It's nothing."

Mrs. Wang obviously didn't believe her, she held her hand and said, "If you're really fine, why did you suddenly get seriously ill? When we went to see you in the palace last time, you were fine. Now it's been a month, no In two months, it became like this. You can coax anyone, but you can't coax your mother. Tell me, what's going on?"

Jia Yuanchun paused, and said after a long time, "I'm afraid this disease will never get better."

Mrs. Wang was startled, and slowly let go of her hand.

"I told my mother years ago that things in the palace are definitely not as simple as you think." Jia Yuanchun sighed, "Even if Concubine Hui has something in our hands, there are Concubine Yi, Concubine Rong and Concubine De , all of them are human spirits. At that time, Concubine Yun was pregnant with Liujia and couldn't spare her hands. Now that she has become an imperial concubine, she is another formidable opponent. Mother, don't worry about this matter. .” Saying this, he got up to leave.

Mrs. Wang pressed Jia Yuanchun down again: "At any rate, I am your mother."

Jia Yuanchun became a little angry: "But this matter is involved in the sky! Except for the young concubine, who has nothing to do with this matter, none of the concubines in the palace is clean. There were no two beautiful women in the palace back then. Girl, another noble concubine was sick, and people were already panicking. Concubine Rong bestowed the death of two maids to completely seal this matter. In Fengzao Palace, I did not pretend to be concubine Yi, and went all the way Concubine Yi was apprehensive when she was promoted to a noble concubine, and she learned from Concubine Rong what happened in the past, so she repeatedly cut my face in front of the Queen Mother. How to deal with this matter? Who can handle it? Ten years ago, concubines died one after another in the palace, who cares about this matter? Yes, Concubine Rong and I were both involved in the events of the past, Concubine Hui was stupid back then, so she escaped Jie. Anyone who dares to bring up the past now will have troubles!"

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she couldn't help shivering.

After a long time, Mrs. Wang asked: "This matter... has something to do with you?"

Jia Yuanchun sighed: "There is some relationship, but not much. Mother, don't ask, anyway, it happened ten years ago, and now everyone is dying, even if there is something, there is no way to mention it. You Let me rest for a while."

Mrs. Wang let go of her hand slowly, and after a long time, she said, "Okay."

Then Mrs. Wang left the house.Jia Yuanchun stayed in the room for a while, felt irritable, and fell asleep.

·

The next night, Jiang Ling saw Jia Lian in a dream.

Compared with before, Jia Lian was much more lethargic.

Jiang Ling continued to act as before, pretending to be a servant, serving tea in front of Jia Lian with a teapot.Jia Lian didn't kick the table this time, nor did he kick the stone lion any more. He sat listlessly on the stone bench, poured seven or eight pots of tea in one go, and then handed the cup to Jiang Ling, saying bitterly: "Mr. I have never seen such a horizontal attack like today."

Jiang Ling just wanted to ask him, but after thinking about it again, he stopped again.

Jia Lian said bitterly: "With the support of the noble concubine, the second room's body can be regarded as stiff. It happened that the family's family-saving villa in the past was built by the second master with the money from the father-in-law for the noble concubine and the empress. Now the girls are getting married. Those who got married, those who returned home, the garden was bleak and desolate, only a few maids were left, and they thought of selling the whole garden. Oh, but the Grand View Garden is right next to our house, who would dare to buy it? Who can afford that price?"

Jiang Ling was silent for a moment, and then said: "I can't afford this price, won't I be able to afford it after dismantling it?"

Jia Lian pointed to Jiang Ling and said, "You're right." Then he poured himself a pot of tea and said out of breath, "That's what Erfang came up with, to demolish the Grand View Garden and give them all the money The second room, but it can be brought back to life for a while. Although Baoyu is at home, his title can always bring in some money every year. Even the uncle Rong in the mansion next door knows this. He sends people over every day to ask questions. Following Baoyu's example, I stopped my errands. Hehe, it's a beautiful idea."

Jiang Ling listened silently for a while, and suddenly heard something wrong.

She thought for a while, then asked Jia Lian, "Didn't you say that the imperial concubine is already sick?"

"I'm sick." Jia Lian said, "but once the old lady left, there was no one in charge of our house, and the noble concubine happened to fill in the vacancy. Think about it, who in our house would dare to disobey that empress? It's not up to her temperament. Now there is a noble concubine in the second room, and the second grandma Bao who is more sensitive than anyone else, how can anyone else talk? Even my father and second uncle have to be there The eldest girl was trembling in front of her. Oh, and also, the second wife in the mansion just wrote a letter to her natal family yesterday, asking her to help her with ideas, scoff."

Later, Jia Lian was a little bit aggrieved: "According to the logic, Yeqianer just tossed Baoyu into the mansion, and they shouldn't be able to cause any trouble. If things really get worse, the Grand View Garden will be returned to the second room. The long room can't afford anything, so the master's stepmother and Sister Feng can all make trouble? Forget it, the master will let them make trouble. Anyway, I can't understand the affairs of the mansion anymore. Going outside and tossing and tossing is the right form."

Jiang Ling was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "It turns out that she is going back to sit in the Rongguo Mansion."

Jia Lian sneered, "Isn't that right. Rongguo's mansion caused panic because of the separation of the family earlier, but now that the eldest girl comes, well, stop arguing with everyone, and everyone has to call auntie! Even Tanchun like that Those who are usually sharp-tongued have to be obedient in front of Second Grandma Bao, so as not to be caught by the imperial concubine and scolded, but they can't eat and walk away. Well, if this is done, Then let them toss about how many deficits and holes have been made in the Grand View Garden. Although I don’t care about the account books, I still have an idea in my heart. I invited those accountants back. Make trouble, let them continue to make trouble.”

Jia Lian gritted his teeth and said the last three words "continue to make trouble".

Jiang Ling thought for a while, then asked again: "Is there no trouble in the East Mansion next door?"

Jia Lian sneered again and again, and said: "They want to make trouble. Who doesn't covet the things left by the old lady, but the question is, can they make trouble like our imperial concubine? Not to mention the East Mansion, even the next door The patriarch who just invited here has to behave in front of the noble concubine, call him aunt, and act according to the rules of the second room. If he comes out to make trouble now, let alone the Ningguo Mansion, it will be the Rongning Second Mansion Adding it all together, it is not worth a word from the imperial concubine."

When he mentioned the four characters of imperial concubine and empress, for some reason, his tone was a little sarcastic.

Jiang Ling pondered for a moment, then tentatively asked: "Then the Grand View Garden—"

"This morning, I started to dismantle it." Jia Lian said, "It is said that it is something in the garden, and the imperial concubine can move at least half of it. Besides, this time it is the imperial decree issued by the empress dowager to allow the imperial concubine to recuperate in the mansion. Who would dare?" Let’s talk about the half-sentence of the empress? Just the two female officials in front of the imperial concubine and the confidant maid holding the piano are enough for them to drink a pot. But it’s strange to say that those two female officials are actually Those who eat and live alone, even the imperial concubine is polite, and can't order them around. Strange things, strange things."

As he spoke, he shook his head again and again, as if he had encountered something incomprehensible.

Just as Jiang Ling was about to ask more questions, he heard Jia Lian say again: "Master just came back from Jinling, and encountered such a major event. It's God's eyes to not let them secretly give Rongguo Mansion to you." It's dismantled. That's fine, wait until they're done messing around, and then we'll see what the end result is. The Wang family, their Wang family, don't even think about meddling this time."
