An old lady's life

After writing the letter to Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, I wrote another letter to the big housekeeper, Lin Ye, telling him to take good care of the two masters, and to watch the masters, and never let them do anything that would be criticized by the world, otherwise Only the butler is asking.

Anyway, servants serve their masters, and if the master is unhappy and angers the servants, the servants can only accept it.

Jia Min put down the brush in her hand, looked at her mother, always felt that after her father passed away, her mother suddenly became stronger.But the strange thing is that she really likes to meet such a mother.

At the entrance of Rongxi Hall, the figure of Jia Hu and Jia Zhu came into view. Hong Ye thought about the time, and it took almost half an hour, and it seemed that there was progress.Looking carefully again, Jia Hu's body is fine, but his face is flushed. Of course, this is not a normal red, but the redness of blood congestion after exercise.

This kid Jia Zhu, his knees were covered with mud, he couldn't walk much after thinking about it, and he knelt on the ground as soon as his feet softened, but the little guy's eyes were shining, his hands were still waving, and his mouth kept yelling, so that he could Is a child full of energy.

When the two brothers approached, Jia Min couldn't help but feel distressed. The maid who was following behind had already spontaneously fetched hot water, "Mother, will this make Hu'er too hard? And Zhu'er Just like a little cat."

Hongye raised her eyebrows: "It's good to move around like this. Don't worry, I know in my heart that I won't exceed the load on Hu'er and Zhu'er's bodies. Hu'er is the eldest son and grandson of our family, and I should bear it in the future." I have a lot of responsibilities, and now I have to educate her well so that I can take on the family business in the future. Zhuer is still young, let him play, and she was detained by Wang at a young age, just like a little old man, what a wonderful child she looks now."

Jia Min couldn't figure it out, the children of a wealthy family were not carefully raised, but her mother was stimulated by the death of her father, so she actually tossed the children.

Seeing that Nanny Su and Nanny Li had cleaned up for Jia Hu and Jiazhu, Hongye waved, "Huer Zhuer, come here."

"Would you like Hu'er to write a letter to your father? Grandmother will send a letter to Jinling, and it happens to be delivered together." After the two brothers walked in front of her, Hongye pointed to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table.

Jia Hu's eyes lit up: "Can I write a letter to Daddy? Yes, I want to write." He has a lot of things he wants to tell Daddy. Now that his health has improved, he will study hard in the future and become Daddy's pride.

Hongye nodded, so she gave up the seat to Jia Hu and let him figure it out.

Seeing Jia Hu, Hongye remembered that she had two daughters-in-law, and she had to inform them. As for whether they wanted to write a letter, it was up to them, but it was fine when she notified her.

"Liuli, send two little maids to tell the eldest wife and the second wife if they want to write a letter to the eldest and the second wife. By the way, let the little girls pick up the letter and send it to Jinling. Let them know that lunch will be at Rongxi Hall Use them together."

Liu Lifu saluted, and then called two little girls to run away in the yard.

Jia Hu's hand strength was not strong, and the handwriting was crooked, and he didn't recognize all the words. He couldn't write the words he thought of, even scratching his ears and cheeks. Jia Min stretched his head to see, then took another piece of paper, and said : "Which word does Hu'er not know, Auntie wrote it for you, so you write it down."

Jia Hu looked up at Jia Min, grinned and said, "Thank you Fourth Aunt." Then the aunt and nephew worked together.

Jia Hu wrote about the things he experienced during this period, such as how long he can walk, and how many bowls of rice he can eat... From Jia Min's point of view, when he smiled knowingly, his heart was also sour. What these normal children go through is a great joy for my nephew.

Jia Zhu was not reconciled to being ignored, and tried to reach out and pat the table. Hongye raised her eyebrows and asked someone to pick him up and stand on the chair. She also spread a piece of paper and teased Jia Zhu, saying: "Zhuer, I want to give you Does Daddy write letters?"

Jia Zhu kept muttering, he didn't understand what the grandmother's words meant, he just stared at his brother, the black on the piece of paper seemed to be very funny.

When it was too late, Jia Zhu stretched out her small hand to touch the inkstone, then opened her whole palm, and slapped heavily on the white paper in front of her.

Nanny Li, who had just cleaned Jia Zhu, closed her eyes. Since the old lady said that they are not allowed to make decisions for the master, those who serve Jia Zhu have become sad when they are on errands, especially the children. She has old arms and legs, she can't run away from him, and the little master changes a lot of clothes in a day.

Jia Zhu seemed to find this fun, and even covered the entire paper with his palm prints.

Hongye said with great satisfaction: "Very well, Min'er wrote a line under Zhu'er's palm to let your second brother know his son's filial piety."

Jia Min's face is full of black lines, and her own mother is also, but it's just a nephew's Hulun graffiti, and it's a slap print, are you sure the second brother won't think too much?But in her mind, she also thought it was funny when the second brother opened the letter paper and looked blankly at the palm print, so she obediently wrote the terms in the lower left corner of the paper: Sincerely, my son Jia Zhu (written by Mei Min).

After Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang received the report from the little girl, the two went into their study rooms and quickly wrote a letter. Thinking that it was not too early, they followed the little girl to Rongxi Hall.

Hongye has already packed several letter papers here, and after taking the letter paper from the Zhang family and the Wang family, they stuffed them directly into the envelopes of Jia She and Jia Zheng. After the three envelopes were sealed, Liu Li took them out and handed them to Lai Jian. Ask him to send someone to Jinling immediately.

Jia Min hasn't returned to her mother's house for more than ten days. Now she will look at her sister-in-law and her second sister-in-law, and find that her spirit is much better than before, and her complexion has finally returned to the color that a pregnant woman should have. It seems that Hu'er's health has improved, and she feels relaxed as a mother. Now, there is no burden, the mood is good, and the body is also taken care of.

The second sister-in-law still has the same low-browed and pleasing expression as before, only occasionally discovering the various emotions in her eyes.She doesn't like the second sister-in-law, but it's just that the second sister-in-law is too pretending, pretending to be more virtuous and generous than anyone else, and more filial to the elders than anyone else, but what is done is always done, without sincerity, which makes people feel hypocritical.

At lunch, Jia Min once again saw that her natal family was different from the previous one. In the past, the whole table was full of plates, and a lot of food was wasted. Now, except for the sister-in-law and two children, there are separate meals on the table. The sister-in-laws all use the same ones, five dishes and two soups, no more, no less, just enough for the three of them to finish eating.

After lunch, Hongye sent her daughter-in-law and grandson back to the courtyard for a lunch break. She also ordered the kitchen to boil hot goat's milk and milk, planning to let Jia Min try it after her lunch break.

Hongye has the habit of taking a lunch break, and Jia Min never leaves her side. The mother and daughter lie on the bed together and talk.

"Mother, Ruhai asked me to tell you something." Thinking of the elder brother-in-law's question, Jia Min finally found a chance and said hastily.

Hongye caressed her head. In my memory, because Jia Min was born by Jia's mother when she was approaching forty, her body might not be as good as Jia's pardoning Jia Zheng, and she was a daughter, so her parents doted on her. Both Jia Daishan and Jia's mother loved Jia. Min, this girl was really meticulously raised.

Jia Min leaned in her mother's arms, looking very nostalgic, and continued: "Ruhai said that the eldest brother-in-law has behaved a little inappropriately recently. The eldest brother-in-law wanted to climb up to His Royal Highness, and made friends with the prince's natal family Cheng'anhoufu and The Li family of the prince’s uncle’s family and the concubine’s younger brother’s concubine celebrated their birthday, and the eldest brother-in-law even came to celebrate his birthday.”

Hongye raised her eyebrows, patted Jia Min's back, and said, "I know, don't worry, I'll take care of it." First ask the cheap daughter-in-law, the eldest son-in-law, it seems that she can't ask questions, Guan Tianguan She doesn't care about her son-in-law getting rich, but she manages the affairs in the Red Mansion in her mind, thinking that sooner or later something will happen to the prince, who is only a fifth-rank official, will she be involved in it?

Jia Min was about to fall asleep, and suddenly thought of a problem that had troubled her for a long time.She held Hongye's hand and couldn't help but tighten it tightly, "Mother." Her voice was full of doubts and shyness.

"Mom, I did something wrong."

Hongye raised her eyelids, "What's the matter? There was a conflict with your mother-in-law?" It shouldn't be, wormwood won't cause trouble for Jia Min, and if it's another house, wormwood won't cause trouble for his daughter-in-law.

Jia Min whispered about her life over the past year. She never told Jia Mu before. Jia Mu was busy taking care of the sick Jia Daishan. She didn't want to add trouble to her parents, so she never complained to Jia Mu.

"What mother-in-law said, why do women make things difficult for women? My mother-in-law plans to marry the two maids around her, and she also plans to marry outside to become a proper lady. She didn't get angry with me because of the lingo..."

Hongye listened and nodded: "Liuyin is just a little girl, so don't worry about her. Since your mother-in-law said that, it is your blessing. Of course, don't get carried away too much. Some mother-in-laws in this world are keen to find concubines for their sons. , some mothers-in-law won’t add concubines to their sons, but they can’t stop a man from liking three wives and four concubines. Whether you can live together with your son-in-law for the rest of your life depends on your own ability. Of course it’s up to you to grasp the son-in-law’s heart Ability and charm, but if your son-in-law is not well trained/taught, don't be disheartened, take care of your heart and live your life well."

Jia Min raised her head, with some doubts, "That mother used to be a housekeeper for eldest brother."

Hongye patted Jia Min's little head, "I can't explain the lawsuit with your eldest brother, but it's because of your grandmother. Your grandmother came from a scholarly family. She has always disliked me, a woman who came from an upstart, and despised me. I will not be able to teach your elder brother well, so I took your elder brother away. Of course, I am arrogant. Your elder brother has also been influenced by your grandmother. These years, mother and son have not been very close. Your elder brother is young and has nothing. You know, it's all my fault."

Hong Ye lowered her head and glanced at Jia Min, "Ms Zhang is beautiful and intelligent, she can win your elder brother's heart. Speaking of your second brother, I actually chose the wrong person. Mrs. Wang and your second brother did not have a common language, which allowed the maids in the house to take advantage of the loopholes. But if you want to become a concubine, you have to bear the consequences. Mrs. Wang's methods are a bit cruel, but she wants to protect the rights and interests of her children. I didn’t do anything wrong. Men can’t understand women’s difficulty, and they are both women, why should women make things difficult for women.”

Jia Min was a little dumbfounded, why didn't her mother blame the second sister-in-law?She remembered that before Jia Zhu was born, there were two concubines in the second elder brother's backyard. Aunt Zhou and Aunt Luo, both of whom became concubines after serving the second elder brother.

Hongye thought that it couldn't be done overnight, and sighed: "Think about it differently. If you were in Wang's situation, what should you do? Cry in bed by yourself, or choose to stain your hands with blood for the future of your child?"

Jia Min blinked, and Hongye patted her head: "Go to sleep, don't rush for a while. You think slowly."

It's just that Hongye really didn't know how to improve the relationship between Wang and Jia Zheng, and she didn't know if it would be effective.
