The Housekeeper's Daughter-in-law of the Red House

Chapter 140 Good things come in pairs

From that day on, Jia Baoyu lived a miserable life. If Jia Baoyu had to choose, he would rather be beaten up by Jia Zheng and be bedridden than be forced to read the Four Books and Five Classics every day.

However, this matter was not changed by his will.

Because this year is over, there will be a childbirth test after the beginning of spring, and Jia Zheng, at the instigation of Jia Zhu, decides to let Jia Baoyu go to the test, so this period is very close to Jia Baoyu.

The reason Shulan was able to know about this was naturally due to the treat a few days ago. Zhou Rui’s family told Shulan when they followed their master over for dinner. Oh my god, obviously they also know Jia Baoyu's virtues and don't think highly of him.

The matter of Jia Baoyu is a joy for Shulan now, I will be happy to hear you for a while, and I don't care if I have something to do.

Because Lin Shuyu's appointment came down a few days later. Although they returned without success this time, they still had to work hard if they had no credit. Either he was promoted to a foreign post or transferred to the sixth department, but Lin Shuyu was promoted by the emperor to a third-class bodyguard and remained in front of the imperial court.

Whether this is a good thing or not is anyone's guess, but it is a great joy to be promoted after all. The third-class guard is a fifth-rank guard, which is one level higher than Jia Zheng's fifth-rank member of the Ministry of Industry. .

As the saying goes, blessings never come in pairs, but misfortunes never come singly. Within two days, Shulan received good news that Xu Hao's daughter-in-law, Yun Shi, was pregnant. Hastily packed up the congratulatory gifts and led Mrs. Chen to Xu Hao's home.

After Xu Hao got married, he moved out of the Lin family to live by himself. It wasn't that Lin Zhixiao and Shulan didn't keep him, but because he had self-respect. After all, his surname was Xu or not. Sooner or later, there would be such a day. Live in the Lin family.But Xu Hao didn't move far away. After all, he is not as particular about the size of the house as the Lin family when he is a businessman. The house is not too big, but it is enough to live in him and Yun's, even if Yun's is pregnant in the future.

Xu Hao's family, Shulan, came here more than once. It used to be close, but now it feels a little far away.

Seeing Yun's maternal love radiating from her body, her spirit, and her complexion, Shulan breathed a sigh of relief, and in the name of elders, she gave Xu Hao and Yun's a few words, and temporarily sent Yuan Fu's family to Yun Come here.Shulan was also afraid that Yunshi would think too much, so she directly said that after Yunshi gave birth to the child, Yuan Fu's family would come back, and the reason why she sent people to Yunshi was because she was afraid that she would hurt the child due to her young age.

In fact, this kind of thing is either done by the mother-in-law or the mother, and it is not Shulan's turn at all, but who made Xu Hao's mother die, and the Yun family is the concubine daughter of the Yun family, and the wife of the Yun family dares to send it. Shi still dare not use it.

Seeing Yun's acceptance of Yuan Fu's family without any awkwardness, Shulan was in a good mood, and was in a good mood until she went to bed.Unlike Shulan's good mood, Shulan's serious daughter-in-law, Chen Shi, is a little delicate. Who made her give birth to a daughter for the first time? Chen's son felt a sense of crisis in his heart.

In fact, the Chen family has no need for a crisis at all, but now Shulan has no intention of urging her grandson, she is busy with Jin Wenxiang and Heping'er's marriage.

Jin Wenxiang was the comprador in Jia's mother's room, and Ping'er was the maidservant next to Zhu's grandma Wang Xifeng. No matter from which point of view, it was not an easy matter for the two of them to get married.

According to Jia's rules of marrying chickens and chickens, dogs and dogs, after Ping'er and Jin Wenxiang get married, she can no longer serve in the second room. The work here has to be rearranged, and this matter is really difficult to solve for a while.

It's been several months since I've been hired, and finally both parties have made arrangements, and Feng'er will take Ping'er's seat on the second room.Mother Jia has also arranged a new position for Ping'er. After she becomes Jin Wenxiang's family member, she will go to work in front of Mother Jia and take charge of spreading the news for the time being.

Don't underestimate this job, the housekeeper's daughter-in-law is different from the maid's, the housekeeper's wife can speak to the outside world.In ancient times, the matter of stewardship was never managed by the inner court or the outer court. It had to be handled by both the inner court and the outer court.

Shulan didn't feel much about Ping'er's new job. In her heart, the Jin family had to come out of Jia's mansion sooner or later. Jia's mother can't leave her for a moment, she already holds the key of Jia's private room, and Jia's mother will not let go for a while.

Because of Yuanyang's status beside Jia's mother, Jin Wenxiang's status in Jia's mansion is not low, but because of his young age and lack of qualifications, he is not yet a big housekeeper.But he was getting married, and he was married to Grandma Zhu's maid again, who in Jia's mansion wouldn't come to congratulate him?

The housekeepers in charge gave gifts to Jin Wenxiang, and the wives, grandmas, and maids in the inner courtyard gave gifts to Ping'er. Because the two married parties did not lose face in Jia's mansion, the gifts and marriage scene were very impressive. Of course, this is said in the capacity of a manager.

Lin Zhixiao and Shulan presided over the entire wedding as in-laws. They started to be busy a few days ago, and after waiting to send the guests away, they breathed a sigh of relief. A major event was finally done.

"Biao Aunt has worked hard, let's have a cup of hot tea!" Yuanyang brought a cup of red dates and goji berry tea and put it by Shulan's hand.

Shulan took it and put it on the table, then pulled Yuanyang to sit down, "You have been busy all day, please sit down and rest for a while."

Yuanyang sat down as she said, she was really grateful to Shulan, don't think she didn't know anything, because she was valued by Jiamu, and her brother also became a comprador in Jiamu's yard.This is a fat job, her brother is getting old, and those maids in Jia's mansion who are not good-looking but motivated have no idea how many people are staring at her brother.

Before Heping'er got engaged, Yuanyang had heard no less than three rumors about her brother.Just like Shulan doesn't like the other maids in Jia's mansion and only likes Ping'er, Yuanyang doesn't look down on those people either, but she picks and chooses among the short ones very rationally, she is not as good as Shulan. The ability to go directly to the confidant next to the housekeeper's grandmother.

"Your brother is married now, and Ping'er is sensible and sensible. With her looking at your brother, my uncle and I are at ease. At last, we have lived up to your father's entrustment. Now that you brothers have already married and established businesses, our family can It's just about your marriage." Shulan said with a smile.

With her own family, and now that the eldest and second house of Jia's family has divided the family wealth, Shulan is sure that Jia She will not follow Yuanyang, but the lifelong event of Yuanyang is really a big problem.

Jia's mother couldn't do without Yuanyang, and Yuanyang was a servant, and Jia's mother paid little attention to her. Some books said that Yuanyang was Jia Baoyu's aunt left by Jia's mother.Shulan really wanted to spit at him for this, Yuanyang was six years older than Jia Baoyu, how could she become Jia Baoyu's aunt, or Jia Mu would not let Jia Baoyu suffer this crime.

After the death of Jia's mother or the defeat of Jia's family, we can talk about Yuanyang's marriage. At that time, Yuanyang will be in his 20s. There is no such thing as a wishful man.

"What did my cousin say?" Yuanyang blushed. She is now 15 years old and it is the time when a girl is pregnant. Seeing her brother getting married, she will inevitably think of herself occasionally. This is a very shy thing for ancient girls. Things, now that Shulan said that, Yuanyang's face immediately turned red, and she was so ashamed that she wanted to get up and leave immediately.

Shulan grabbed Yuanyang and smiled: "Why are you shy? This is a major event in life. Except for those short-lived and unlucky people who have twisted their hair, everyone has to get married. Everyone will have this once in their life. Don't be shy, me and You said it was serious."

Yuanyang blushed even more at Shulan's words, she had a sharp temper, and everyone in Jia's house had to give her three points for Jia's mother's face, so she was too ashamed at the moment , Immediately the energy went up, "Is this the serious thing that Aunt Biao said? I know this today."

Shulan was not angry at all, she knew Yuanyang's temperament for a long time, "Silly girl, I am thinking of you, you are still shy to talk about these things now, but when you are older, you will be very afraid."

"Could it be possible that Aunt Biao thinks that I'm the one who longs for/springs/hates/marries?" Yuanyang was about to cry angrily.

"Of course I don't think so. You are a good daughter. I know it. But silly girl, don't think about it. Now that the old lady trusts you so much, even if your brother is married, she will only let you go home today." , tomorrow morning you have to go back to Jia's mansion as an errand. You are still like this now, and after a few years you will become more calm, and the old lady will not be able to leave you for a moment? How could you tell the old lady about you at that time? Even if I risk my face and tell the old lady, the old lady may not agree, so what will you do then?" Shulan said carefully.

Naturally, Shulan's words were not flattering but well-founded. Yuanyang is a smart woman, and the joy on her face faded when she heard the words, leaving only a look of surprise.

As a slave, not everyone sees the long-term like Shulan, and there are very few slaves who count Jia Baoyu's aunt's position as early as Xiren, and the more calculating ones are the maids around Jia Baoyu seat.

Yuanyang naturally didn't think much about it before, if she would have thought about it, she wouldn't end up committing suicide in the original novel. As the most important maid beside Jiamu, Yuanyang knew more about Jia's mansion, especially Jiamu's affairs than many masters. Many, but if Yuanyang had a different heart, she would not be Yuanyang anymore.

"Now I'm only thinking about serving the old lady, and I haven't thought about it that much." Yuanyang said with her head down, her original unchanging heart was disturbed by Shulan, who would not want to pursue something better? .

Shulan said with a smile: "It's right to serve the master wholeheartedly. It's because I drank too many glasses of wine today and started talking nonsense."

"Madam is happy for my cousin." Chen came in from the outside with a smile and said, she just went to the Jin family's servants to clean the house and pack things.

"That's right, me! I'm just happy today, hehe~"
