The Historian of the Red Chamber has a daughter

Xue Baochai was not at all surprised when she heard this, she had known Mrs. Wang's plan, so she was not hypocritical, and said: "Yes, I will listen to Madam."

Mrs. Wang nodded in satisfaction, and then talked about what happened in the morning, "You are too confused, what day is it today, how can you let a room full of elders wait for you? If it spreads, people will laugh at our family without a tutor!"

Xue Baochai blushed with embarrassment, and dared not say a word, but lowered her head with tears in her eyes.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Wang softened her heart a little, "I also know what kind of temperament Baoyu is, and you may not be able to persuade him. This time it's all right, don't do this again in the future. There is no need for people to laugh at our Wang family." daughter."

Xue Baochai blushed, and nodded with tears in her eyes, "What my wife taught me is that my daughter-in-law knows."

Only then did Mrs. Wang nodded in satisfaction, "Sit down! Talk to me for a while, by the way, you didn't eat breakfast, Jin Chuan'er, bring some snacks. You make a cushion first, and you'll need more later. Go to serve the old lady. According to the rules of our family, girls who have not left the cabinet are more honorable, and I also came here like this."

Xue Baochai stood up and said gratefully: "Thank you madam for pointing it out. It was also my blessing in my previous life to be able to cultivate such a considerate mother-in-law as madam. My wife has experienced more things than me. If there is anything I don't understand in the future, please let me know." My wife taught me too."

Mrs. Wang smiled with satisfaction, "Sit down quickly, I've been standing all morning, and I'm not too tired to panic." Then, as if thinking of something, she asked: "Caiyun, send someone to wait in the outer study, if Baoyu Come out, let him come to me immediately. Be careful, if the master gets angry, tell the old lady immediately."

Caiyun went in response.

Only then did Mrs. Wang look at Xue Baochai distressedly, "You don't know, what happened this morning, the master must be very angry! Maybe he will teach Baoyu a lesson again!"

Xue Baochai persuaded with a smile: "Madam, don't worry, the second master is the wife's child, and also the master's child. The master is angry because he has high hopes for the second master. There is no reason why the master does not love him. It's just that there is a good saying." Mother's love is like water, delicate and moist, father's love is like a mountain, heavy and speechless, the master loves the second master, but it's not easy to show it on the surface. Besides, the old lady is so happy today, and it's a good day. I won't beat the second master today. Don't worry, madam!"

After being told by Xue Baochai, Mrs. Wang felt much better. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked and laughed, and it was not until a quarter of an hour later that Jia Baoyu walked in dejectedly.As soon as he saw Mrs. Wang looking at him lovingly, he immediately felt aggrieved, called "Madam", then walked a few steps quickly, and threw his head into Mrs. Wang's arms.

Mrs. Wang didn't even look at Baochai when she saw him coming in. She was only thinking about herself, and she was even more happy. She put her arms around Baoyu's heart and kept screaming, "My son, what's the matter? Is it your master?" Said you again?"

Jia Baoyu nodded, "Madam, the master told me to take the initiative to tell the old lady that I want to move out of the garden and watch me study."

Mrs. Wang was stunned for a moment, then lovingly touched Jia Baoyu's face and asked, "My son, tell your wife the truth, are you willing to move out of the garden? If you are willing, you can talk to the old lady, if you are not , just say it straight.”

How could Jia Baoyu want to move out of the garden, he hurriedly shook his head.

Mrs. Wang saw it, and said with a smile: "If you really don't want to, then you can talk to the old lady. The old lady loves you and won't make things difficult for you."

Jia Baoyu was dubious, "Ma'am, if I say this, will the old lady be unhappy?"

Mrs. Wang smiled, "The old lady likes you so much, how can she be unhappy! You go!" Jia Baoyu jumped up happily after hearing this, opened the curtain and ran away.

Xue Baochai only felt that the taste was difficult to distinguish, "Madam, this?"

Mrs. Wang was in a good mood, so she didn't hesitate to speak, but carefully explained to Xue Baochai, "The Grand View Garden was originally built for the imperial concubine to visit relatives, and it was the intention of the imperial concubine, so you were allowed to live in it. The three girls and the four girls will always Those who want to leave the pavilion, such a big garden, if you don’t live here, it will be a pity to leave it empty.” After speaking, he gave Baochai a meaningful look.

Xue Baochai immediately understood what Mrs. Wang meant, so it was so.She just said, my aunt always thought that there were too many girls in the garden, and she didn't like Baoyu living in it, so why is she willing now.It turned out to be for this.When this garden was first built, the two prefectures put all their efforts into it. Not only did they occupy the garden of Ningguo Mansion, but also occupied a lot of the Grand Master's yard, which cost countless money.After the noble concubine passed away, the sisters lived together. As for the specific ownership of this garden, the mansion has never mentioned it.Seeing what my aunt meant, she wanted to live in this garden and become the second bedroom.

Xue Baochai felt a little embarrassed. It would be false to say that she has no interest in the Grand View Garden, but if Baoyu's future is delayed for the sake of a garden, then the loss outweighs the gain.But looking at Mrs. Wang like this, Xue Baochai understood that such words cannot be said today.That's all, I have no choice but to persuade Baoyu in the future.

Here, Mrs. Wang, the second grandmother, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law reached a consensus. After Jia Tanchun was worried for a few days, he found that there was no movement on Mrs. Wang's side. He was relieved, thinking that there was no danger for the time being.Who knows, suddenly one day, in front of Jia Mu and Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang suddenly said: "The housekeeper of the third girl has a few days. Although my daughter's family should learn something about being a housekeeper, after all, the time in the boudoir is precious. I should be the most carefree, but because there was no one there for a while, Sanya was busy these days. I feel very distressed. Besides, Sanya is getting older day by day, so I should say kiss At this point, if there is news about her housekeeper, there is no need for people to talk about it, thinking that there is no one in our house, and let a quiet daughter's house be tired! Now that Baoyu is married, it is better to let Baoyu's daughter-in-law be the housekeeper! What did the old lady say?"

Jia Tanchun's heart rose to his throat, and he also looked nervously at Jia's mother.

Mother Jia pondered for a moment, looked at Tanchun with a tense face, and then at Xue Baochai with a calm face, and there was a difference between the two, and then she nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. If that's the case, Let Baoyu's daughter-in-law be the housekeeper from tomorrow! It's good for Sanya to rest for a few days. However, since you mentioned Sanya's marriage today, I will leave this matter to you! Originally, I planned to let Feng girl find Touched, but something happened to Lian'er, Feng girl is not at home, so I can only continue to trouble you."

Mrs. Wang smiled with incomparable kindness, "I was originally Sanyatou's aunt, which is as it should be."

The matter was settled just like that, and Jia Tanchun, who was full of ambition, was immediately deprived of the housekeeping right, which made all her previous efforts in vain.But there was nothing she could do about it.Mrs. Wang's words were not only reasonable, but she also used her marriage inside and outside the words to manipulate her. Jia Tanchun could only swallow her anger and let it go.

After coming out of Jiamu's place, Jia Zheng wanted to go back to his study, but was stopped by Mrs. Wang, "Master, since we have already talked about it today, why not take this opportunity to sit down and discuss the matter of the third girl!"

Jia Zheng thought about it, then nodded and left.

At that moment Mrs. Wang and Jia Zheng sat down respectively, and Xue Baochai stood beside Mrs. Wang serving tea and water. Mrs. Wang saw Xue Baochai standing while Jia Tanchun was sitting there, so she let Xue Baochai sit down beside Baoyu. "Since we're talking about the marriage of the third girl, why don't you ask my aunt to come too! After all, she's my aunt's daughter, so let's listen to my aunt's wishes."

Jia Tanchun's eyes lit up, and if Auntie was here, she would feel a little relieved.

But Jia Zheng frowned and said, "You are the mother-in-law, you are in charge of her marriage, what should she do! What can she know?"

A smile flashed across Mrs. Wang's face. She knew Jia Zheng's character and said this on purpose to save Aunt Zhao from making trouble in the future. "Since that's the case, let's discuss it! I don't know if the master has any requirements for this? I can also inquire about candidates according to the master's wishes."

But Jia Zheng said: "The first level of character is limited, even if the family is poor, it can't be helped. The most important thing is that people should make progress. Don't be like this little beast who is ignorant and incompetent."

Mrs. Wang frowned, "If the master said that, I would know it well. It's just ordinary noble children, there are also those who are sensible and courteous, but most of them are descendants. I'm afraid that people like that may not be able to look up to them."

When she said the word concubine, Mrs. Wang glanced at Jia Tanchun, saw her face turned pale, and sneered.

Jia Zheng also knew this fact, and sighed: "Since that's the case, let's choose one of those poor students who is motivated and polite! In the future, he will have a better future if he comes from the imperial examination. Temporary coldness is nothing, just plan for the future." "The last two sentences were obviously addressed to Jia Tanchun.

Jia Tanchun's face was slightly pale, and his heart was complicated. A student from a poor family, who was born in the imperial examination?It was easier said than done, with so many students, how many of them survived in the end?She was actually unwilling, but it was the master who said this, so she couldn't refute it, otherwise she would be at a loss!For the current plan, the only way is to fight for the dowry.If he is like the second sister, he can live a good life with the dowry in the future!

Mrs. Wang didn't know what Jia Tanchun was thinking, so she just smiled, and soon, you will know that some things are not what you think.Take your time and wait!

"Since the master said so, I will send someone to pay attention. I will definitely choose a good one for the third girl."

"Well, after you've made your selection, tell me the candidate, and I'll make a decision after I've seen it." After all, Jia Zheng paid more attention to the daughter born to his concubine, and took a light look at Tanchun, and Mrs. Wang Said.

Mrs. Wang nodded, "Understood, master." So what if you have seen it, the twists and turns in it, how can you, an old man, know it.Even if I have done something, you may not be able to see it.

The author has something to say: After coming out of Mrs. Wang, Jia Tanchun went straight back to the garden.That night, a figure went to Aunt Zhao's place in the dark, and stayed at Aunt Zhao's place for a long time before leaving.

"How? What does Auntie say?" Tanchun asked eagerly.

"The aunt said, she knows, since the master has spoken, there is no possibility of changing this matter! She will let the uncle pay attention to the scholars who have failed, and find someone with a clean fortune and a promising future. The aunt said, let the girl do these things There are too many days when the old lady flatters her, and if the old lady says one word, the second lady will say ten words." Cui Mo said courteously.

Jia Tanchun sighed, she knew it would be like this, but she just thought that it would be great if the aunt could persuade the master to change his mind.Presumably, my aunt knew the master well, otherwise she wouldn't have said these words.In fact, that's fine too, if you really marry into that high-ranking family, the only ones who match your status are bastards, or concubines.I have had enough of the crying of concubines, but I don't want my children to be like me.
