By Jia Xiuzhen

King Xin didn't need to ask the members of Jia's family. Since the jade was so important and Baoyu never left his body, he had to go to Dali Temple to ask.It's just that he really seemed to be on a whim, and he didn't use his own bodyguards, he didn't even send a steward who was familiar with the affairs, he found someone somewhere, and gave him a badge of Lantai Temple, even if it was perfunctory.

Dali Temple saw a new face from Lantai Temple, and asked all kinds of questions, but he didn't find any trouble, and even asked about people committing private property.Pooh!This is the practice in the prison, that is, the grand master of the former court went in and out twice, and he didn't see anyone looking back to find what he was wearing that day. Who is so blind, come to check this? !Let him report to see who will pick him up!

Sure enough, the little official checked around and didn't know what to report, but he didn't make any noise after all, and just let the people in Dali Temple wait for a few days as a joke.

The waterway has not yet been opened, but Jia Zheng insists on going south, and no one can persuade him.Li Wan and Yingchun prepared some money, but Jia Zheng didn't accept a penny, so Li Wan had to exchange some odd banknotes, a total of only about 100 taels, and handed them over to Baochai, but it was money for renting a car.Jia Zheng also knew that several of them were penniless now, if they really didn't want this, they might have to beg all the way back home.Then with a long sigh, Baochai took it away.

As for Yingchun, Mrs. Jia Shexing and others are still in prison. This is a bottomless pit, how can he ask for the support of this niece?Naturally, I can't ask for it.Yingchun had no choice but to give up.

During the days when he was preparing to go south, Jia Huan went out almost every day. Jia Zheng was afraid that he would make bad friends and go astray, but Jia Huan sneered: "What is my identity and what important people can I make friends with? I’m just idlers with no ability, but fortunately, people don’t dislike my current appearance. It’s much more reliable than those who have always been glamorous.”

But Baoyu was talking about Baoyu. At that time, Baoyu was on good terms with the boys of Feng's family and Niu's family.Baoyu also kowtowed to the Beijing Palace once to thank him, and stayed by Jia Zheng's side on weekdays, serving his parents and not going out.

Seeing that Jia Huan still harbors old grievances, Jia Zheng may not be able to say a few words.Now he lives in Li Wan's house again, there are too many people and few houses, so it's no fun to reprimand and discipline him, so he went there, only thinking about returning to the south to teach him well.

Central Beijing is now staring at the battle in the north. Many soldiers and horses have been transferred from the Jingwei Battalion to the New Northern Army. Now the New Northern Army has fought the Tartars several times in the north, with many victories.Only those who care will find out that the New Northern Army will reach the hereditary territory of the Zhongshun Palace if it advances westward.The area under the Northern Army's jurisdiction under Prince Zhongshun's mansion has been repeatedly invaded by Tartars since late last autumn.It's just that people's hearts are treacherous, and how can they be treated with common sense.

Although the Jia family started with military exploits, it has nothing to do with today's wars with soldiers and horses, except for listening to important events, they seldom talk about them.

That day, Yinger and Baochai were talking in the room about returning to the south. Baochai took the list and calculated what was missing. In a word, 'whatever you want is nothing'!"

Baochai glared at her and said, "I'm talking nonsense again."

Yinger said again: "I know grandma doesn't pay much attention to these things. But there is one most important thing, but I have to think about it quickly. It is the Lengxiang Wan. I want to tell the second master, grandma Not allowed. Now there are only a few pills left, and it coincides with the change of seasons in winter and spring, and I am going south again, I am afraid that it will not be enough for this time!"

Baochai kept thinking and writing to herself, and replied, "What's the use of talking to him. It's complicated to mix the thing, and the medicine primer is gone early in the morning. Where can I go to find the monk again?" If you really got those flower fans, you can't make it up, so what's the point of doing it."

Ying'er said: "Then what should I do if Grandma falls ill again!"

Baochai scolded: "The more you talk nonsense, what is sickness! It's just a cough or two, and it doesn't hurt anything after all."

Ying'er curled her lips: "Cough twice?! It's okay for grandma to deceive Wen Xing with her words. I have followed grandma since I was a child. I think grandma has forgotten the pain that day after taking the medicine. One night I couldn't sleep all night, wheezing and coughing, my eyelids and cheeks were swollen! It's not a problem, I really don't know what is a problem!"

Baochai stretched out her hand to rub her forehead, and sighed: "You are getting older, and your mouth is becoming more and more broken. I don't think you need to go south with me for a while, and you can just choose someone to marry here. I am also quiet. , you are also at ease."

Ying'er hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, my good grandma, it's okay if I don't talk about it!"

The master and the servant had just taken a break when they suddenly heard urgent conversations outside. Baochai asked Yinger to put away the list and came out of the house by herself. He is coming to himself with Li Wan to welcome the spring.Baochai looked at it carefully, then called out hesitantly, "Yun'er?"

The woman looked up to see Baochai coming, called out "Sister Bao!" and immediately burst into tears.

It wasn't Xiangyun who came, but who? !

Li Wan let all the people into his room, and poured tea for them all by himself, before talking about the matter.

It turned out that after Xiangyun married into the Wei family, because Wei Ruolan joined the army, the wife of the Wei family only said that her son was ambitious and ambitious, but in private she complained that Xiangyun could not keep her, and sent her son to wait for the sinister place to go.Just before the Jingwei Battalion transferred troops to the north, Wei Ruolan liked to ride and shoot since she was a child. Seeing the opportunity to fight in the battlefield, she would not miss it, so she joined the New Northern Army.After he left, Xiangyun's life at home became more and more difficult.

It just so happened that there were many gossips about Jia's mansion that year, and Xiangyun was involved in it. Mrs. Wei's family heard the news twice when they were out socializing, and felt ashamed and disliked Xiangyun even more.After Jia's mother left, Xiangyun wanted to go to worship in person, but he was not allowed.

After the incident of Jia Amnesty happened, even the historians were implicated, the Xue family cut off their incense, and the Wang family also lost power. Yun contacted her natal family.

Xiangyun was banned in the inner courtyard almost all the year round, and he didn't know what happened outside. He was shocked when he heard that Jia's mansion had been raided. Knowing whether to visit in person, and fearing that the people of Jia's mansion would suffer from hunger and cold inside, they took out their private property and asked people to prepare clothes and send them away.

Naturally, this matter cannot be concealed from Mrs. Wei's family. Mrs. Wei's family was very angry when she saw that Xiangyun was so ignorant and refused to change after repeated admonitions.So he grounded her in the house and didn't allow her to come out for half a step.She was not even allowed to pay homage to the shadow of the ancestors during the Chinese New Year.Xiangyun was concerned about all the people in Jia's mansion, so he asked Cuilu to send Yinzi to ask people to buy news. Knowing that Jia pardoned Jia Lian and was sentenced to death, Jia Zhengbaoyu and others were released, and wept for a long time with joy and sorrow.He also heard that Jia's family had to sell off even the servants in order to repay the debts, so they wanted Cuilu to take the money to redeem a few acquainted sisters.Another tael of silver was prepared, and I wanted someone to secretly send it to Baochai.

She has no cronies in the mansion, how many can she buy with money?He was also worried that she would get involved too much with the Jia family and harm his own family, so when he found out about the news, he went to the wife of the Wei family again.Just a few days later, the news of Wei Ruolan's death in battle came. The wife of the Wei family saw that her son was away fighting, but the wife here was anxious to make plans for others, and she recalled the rumors about Xiangyun and the second master of Jia's family. Come on, the more you think about it, the more you hate it, the more you think about it, the more angry you become.

Now seeing that his son is gone, he is filled with grief and anger, and hates Xiangyun even more.So they brought people to bring Xiangyun to the old lady of the Wei family, who bought the servants in the mansion several times to inquire about the news of Jia's mansion and wanted to help Jia's mansion. They also married Zi Xiangyun into the Wei family. The battalion, the entry into the New North Army, etc. were explained in detail one by one, and then the words passed on from the outside were said before, and Xiangyun must be given up.

The old lady of the Wei family refused at first, and only said that she divorced her grandson-in-law just after her grandson died, and it was not good to spread the word.Mrs. Wei's family said again that Xiangyun's relationship with Jia's mansion was very secret in the past, and now almost no one connected with Jia's mansion has got good results.The old lady of the Wei family was already dispensable to Xiangyun, and when she heard that the two historians had also been exiled, she became more and more disinterested, so she followed the wishes of the wife of the Wei family.

The Wei family wants to stop Xiangyun and inform the historians. The two wives of the historians hate the Jia family now. I heard that Shi Xiangyun is still helping the Jia family.Since no one was in charge, the Wei family set up an incense case to sue their ancestors, wrote a letter of divorce, and asked people to throw all the things that Xiangyun brought as a dowry at the door, and let it go.

Xiangyun's master and servant, together with the dowry, returned to the historian's house, but the historian's door was closed.After staying outside the door for a long time, the married aunt of the Shi family opened the door, but she scolded Xiangyun for harming others, herself, and disturbing the family, and told her to get out, and don't come into this house again to harm others.

Cuilu still wanted to beg hard, but Xiangyun stopped her, and only asked Cuilu to return the body deeds of the dowry to the historian. Cuilu brought Cuilu with her, took some clothes and waited for them, and stayed in a nearby inn. down.Another person was found to find out where Jia's family is now, so they hired a car and came to the door.

Several people could not stop crying when they heard this, Baochai said to Xiangyun: "This is the case, there is nothing we can do. Now we are going to the south, if you want, you can go with us."

Xiangyun burst into tears when he heard the words, hugged Baochai and said, "Sister Bao, you still want me after all."

When Baochai heard the words, she was in a daze, seeing all the things about each other's youth in the Rong Mansion that day, and she couldn't help crying.

When Jia Zheng heard about Xiangyun, he was silent for a long time, and finally heaved a long sigh: "In the past, the old lady doted on this girl the most. Now that she has come here, let's stay together. I'm afraid life will be difficult in the future. , but she has to suffer."

Xiangyun heard this from Rui'er, and cried, "If you have relatives to stay with you, what's the harm in eating chaff and swallowing vegetables!"

Li Wan was surprised to see that besides clothes and jewelry, there were some medical books in the luggage that Xiangyun brought.Xiangyun saw it and said: "I'm there, I can't go out all year round, and I don't have much to talk to. I just read these books over and over again, and I still have some interest."

Li Wan patted her hand and said: "What people think and feel is their own state. Since you have made some progress in the medical field, it is also a good fate to help others and yourself in the future. The past is gone, and the coming Can be chased."

Xiangyun nodded upon hearing this.When the group went south, Li Wan remembered this and prepared a box of medicinal materials and some ancient medical books for Xiangyun.

In a blink of an eye, the day came, and Jia Zheng and others went south after offering sacrifices to their ancestors.I hired a few cars and only loaded some boxes and luggage, but Mrs. Wang's coffin will go back by water with Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian's after the autumn.Most of those cars were used as a dowry for sister Qiao, everyone in Jia's house now only changed clothes.

Before leaving, Meiren also came to see Sister Qiao and Ping'er, and she didn't know what Ping'er said to her, she came here with a box in her arms, but she carried it back afterwards.

Xiren Qiuwen and others waited to send Baoyu and his party to the south before returning to make arrangements.Xiren had her parents and brother in Chang'an city, so she sent a letter back, and her brother drove a car to pick her up.

The rest of them were all going to the village, so Li Wan asked someone to arrange a vehicle to take them there together.Unexpectedly, Nanny Xu came over first. After hearing this, she smiled and said, "I really expected it. It was they who urged me to come here, and asked me to talk to grandma. Now there is no one here who I know well." What's the fun of grandma watching alone. It's better to go up to Zhuangzi together. The few small courtyards built in the past are now reserved for grandma. Since the second girl lived in it, they are now cleaned up. The more beautiful it is, the grandma has put in so much effort, but it’s not a loss to stay there for a while? Besides, when my brother comes back, it’s time to go to the other end, so don’t delay anything!”

Li Wan felt reasonable after hearing this, not to mention that she really had nothing to do in the city now, so she followed Madam Xu's advice and sent a letter to Daiyu, and took everyone to the village together.When Daiyu got the news, she yearned for it, but it's a pity that now she can't wait to ask for approval from the Ministry of Rites, so how can she dare to think about it? !
