The Lady of the Farm in the Red Mansion

Chapter 7 Dragon Boat Festival 2

"I think the old matriarch and girl Xing have a good relationship, why don't I recognize my goddaughter and support her myself!" Mrs. Wang said.

"Ma'am, this is unnecessary. Miss Xing is Da Furen's niece, and she can be regarded as the old matriarch's half granddaughter. Even if she doesn't recognize her as a daughter, the old matriarch will support her if she likes it!" Sister Feng said.

"I'm confused! If that's the case, I'll let you take care of Xing girl. Don't treat the old lady's new granddaughter badly."

"How dare my niece, since my wife has spoken, I will dare to let Sister Xing live in the garden. I will also give Sister Xing two taels of silver every month according to the rules of the girls!"

"That's great!" Madam Wang said.

"You two nephews and aunts are discussing in full swing here, but have you ever asked your wife if you agree!" Granny Shi said.

"There is no reason for me to disagree. Thanks to the love of the old lady, Mrs. Madam, she treats my girl as a granddaughter. I don't know where I got the blessing in my life!" Hu said hurriedly.

"In this case, Feng girl, you can clean up a place for them to live in temporarily!" Mrs. Shi said gentlemanly.

"The old lady is kind, it's okay for the girl to live in the garden, but my brother and sister-in-law are not from the garden, so it may be inconvenient to live in the garden!" Mrs. Xing has been silent since she visited the garden. When it came to her elder brother, she originally didn't want to take care of her brother-in-law's affairs. If it was just a matter of one sentence, the old lady could help them, without harming her own interests, and at the same time gain the gratitude of her brother-in-law's family. Why not do it!

"Did your brother win the prize too? Why didn't anyone tell me!" Mother Jia was surprised.

"It's inconvenient for a man from the non-clan to enter the backyard of the women's family, so he didn't come and rest in the inn for now!" Mrs. Xing was always submissive in front of Jiamu.

"The inn is not a place to live, and it's too expensive. Why don't you move to our West Courtyard for a temporary stay. It's a place where your father-in-law was happy to raise when he was alive. It's empty now!" Mother Jia kindly said.

"Thank you, old lady, for your kindness. It's just that my brother and sister-in-law intend to buy a house in the capital. If I can find a suitable house in the next few days, it will save me the trouble of moving." At this moment, everyone shut their mouths. She left her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law alone to talk.

"That's true, it's just that this is the most crowded place in the city, and it may not be easy to find a house!"

"There is a ready-made place, big and bright, and a good location!"

"where is it?"

"The abandoned house of Liuyuan Wailang's family on Xinglong Street!"

"That place is open and bright, but it has been abandoned for a long time, and I am afraid that it is inconvenient to live in!"

"That doesn't matter. They can live in after cleaning. The country people just need to have a place to live. They don't stick to those formal things. It's just that the house is dilapidated, but the owner doesn't want to sell it! These people even Promoted to a provincial officer, I'm afraid I still can't bear to part with the land in the capital!"

"What's so good about it? There are too many people and the air is not good. I really miss our Jinling historian's old house. Liu Yuanwailang, isn't he Erlang's colleague? Ask Erlang to say hello to him and say what I mean. At that time, if you give some more money, it will be settled, and the relatives will come all the way to make them have no place to stay." You Shi's old lady said that the matter was more than half settled, and Hu heard it Thank you so much.

This matter was only a matter of one sentence to Mrs. Shi, but she didn't take it very seriously. She looked up at the elm leaves covering the sky and said, "This Xiaocuitang is a good place to escape the summer, but it's just that the green eyes can't be seen. It's too cool to see a single flower! I think back when Grandma Liu came here, the garden was full of fragrance, and the flowers bloomed so lively!"

"The old lady likes these flowers when she is old. I think we dressed up Grandma Liu like an old goblin!" Thinking of the scene of Grandma Liu, everyone couldn't help laughing.

While everyone was laughing, the dishes were served one after another.Mrs. Shi took a strip of gray beans and dried them in Xiuyan's mother's bowl: "Come and taste the difference between the gray beans in our city and the ones in your country!"

At this moment, tremblingly, a girl in water-red clothes came tremblingly from the other side of the bridge. Her shoulders were slashed, her waist was like a water snake, and she was graceful and dexterous. People like it, Xiuyan couldn't help but stare dumbfounded, and Hu Shi was also shocked, pointing to the bright red color and saying: "Is the lovely person on the bridge also your girl?"

Mrs. Shi raised her eyes and looked over there, but she didn't recognize the person after looking for a long time, and turned to Sister Feng: "Who is the girl with the water snake waist?"

Sister Feng said with a smile: "The old ancestor is so noble that he forgets so much, he doesn't even recognize the people in his own room!"

"People in my house? Why don't I remember people with such a sign in my house!"

"The old ancestor really forgot, she is Qingwen!"

"Oh, it's that kid, I haven't seen him for a few years, but he's so elegant!"

"Why don't we say that our ancestors have good eyesight!"

It turned out that this Qingwen was originally a girl next to Mrs. Shi, but because Mrs. Shi saw that she looked very good, which was beyond the reach of other maids in the mansion, she intentionally put her next to Mr. Bao, and would do it for him in the future. Concubine, it's just that this matter has not been made clear, everyone knows it well, and Hua Xiren went with her, both of whom were trained by Mrs. Shi herself.

Just as she was talking, Qingwen stepped forward gracefully, and Mrs. Wang asked, "Why are you here? Where are you, Sister Hua?"

"Back to Madam, it was Sister Hua who asked me to report that the second master had suffered from heatstroke after returning from school, so he won't come to accompany the old lady for dinner today!"

"Central Office? Does it matter? Have you asked the doctor to look at it?" Mrs. Wang asked anxiously.

"Madam, please don't worry. I have asked the imperial physician Wang to look at it. He said that it is not serious. He has prescribed two medicines to reduce heat and he is almost healed after taking it. Now he is lying down! The imperial physician said that the second master's body is a little weak, and finally The most important thing is to stay in bed and rest more!"

"How could it be false? Didn't you give him ginseng, lurong and that diamond pill?" Mrs. Wang said.

"I used to take it in the morning and evening, but the pills nourished the body but not the heart, and the imperial doctor suggested that those things should be eaten less, so Sister Hua put them away, and only had one ginseng tea in the morning and evening, and occasionally drank it. Blood swallow porridge!"

"Why is that body still weak? How do you slaves serve you!" Mrs. Wang changed her face.

"Don't blame the girls, I think your current state is caused by your husband and wife. The child was weak when he was born, and you still fucked him to death. According to me, it doesn't matter whether the exam is passed or not. In our opinion Is the strength of the family still afraid that there will be no official position in the future, even if I don't become an official, my family property will not be able to support him after I die, now I am the master, Baoyu doesn't have to go to that damned school!" Jiamu said.

Mrs. Wang opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say a word, she just turned her head and said to Qingwen: "Since the old lady has spoken, you can go back and tell Baoyu that he doesn't have to go to school recently, and we can talk about it when he recovers! "

Mrs. Shi didn't care too much about Mrs. Wang, after all, Baoyu was not only her grandson but also Mrs. Wang's son, and things in the future should be taken one step at a time.

Hu said: "Since brother is ill, let's go see him!"

"The in-laws have good intentions, but sick people are most afraid of nagging. All of us went to see him in a mighty way. Although we have good intentions, we are afraid of doing bad things with good intentions. Let's just play with us! Although Feng girl's words are ruthless, But it's also reasonable, besides, Baoyu is a demon king in the world, it's fine if you don't see him, but it's not easy to live in trouble if you provoke him, wouldn't it be pleasant to live in this garden quietly." Jiamu said.

Seeing or not seeing doesn't matter to Xiuyan, it's just that her mother was the first to lose.
