Sister Xue of the Red Chamber
Chapter 68
The stupid aunt just has a god to help the clever girl keep losing the opportunity
Let's talk about Jia Zheng.
Since moving to the new house, there has not been a moment of peace.
One is that this house is next to Xizhimen, although there are a few shops away from Xizhimen Street, it can't stop the hustle and bustle of people coming and going every day.
The second is for family affairs.
Sanjin's courtyard couldn't be opened at all, so Jia Zhengyuan wanted to let Baoyu and Jia Huan live in the same courtyard.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang said that it was just right for Baoyu to live in a yard alone, and it would be too crowded if Jiahuan was added.
Then, Mrs. Wang talked to Jia Zheng about the people who followed Baoyu.
Among the maids, the first-class ones are Xiren, Sheyue, Qiuwen, and the jade bracelet that was newly pulled from Mrs. Wang.The second class are Bihen, Qixia, Tanyun and Jiahui.The third class includes Si'er, Zhui'er, Liang'er, Zhuan'er, Xiaohong, Zixiao, Chunyan, and Fangguan.There are a few servant girls who are not of the same rank.
Among the servants, there are often Mingyan and baked tea.There are also hoeing medicine, sweeping red, ink rain, Yinquan, Taoyun, Banhe, Shuangrui, and Shuangshou, who serve in shifts.
Among the mother-in-law, there are four people with heads and faces, namely: Mother Li, Mother Zhao, Mother Zhang, and Mother Wang.
Such a count gave Jia Zheng a headache.He never thought that there are so many people around his son!Thinking about it again, I can't complain that adding another Jia Huan will not be able to live in it. Most of the people brought out from Rongfu follow Baoyu!
Jia Zheng frowned and said, "Baoyu is so young, how can I have so many maids around me? It's not a blessing! Cut off half of it later, and let it go out of the house with a reward. It can be regarded as accumulating some blessings for Baoyu. "
How could Mrs. Wang be willing!She was not willing to wrong her son, nor was she willing to give up the money, so she hurriedly said: "Baoyu is just at the age of studying. I am afraid that he is not enough manpower to serve the tea, pass the water, grind the ink, and spread the paper! Give him the jade bracelet. Besides, how can a son of a rich family not have a few maids to serve him? Four first-class, four second-class, and eight third-class. I am worried that if there are fewer people, I will throw it away Lose face!"
Jia Zheng has the best reputation, so he won't say more for a while.
At this time, Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhou came to ask, "Madam, has the yard been settled?"
Mrs. Wang has a small book in her heart.
The east and west side rooms are too close to the main room. If Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhou are called to live there, will the master go to the side rooms?
The back cover room is the best, and it is also some distance away from the main room, and it is blocked behind.Not to mention remote and desolate, it is also close to the courtyard wall.The most lively place outside, isn't it a "good place"!
As for Jia Huan, he used to live with his two aunts.Let's go to the back room and hide together!
Seeing that Jia Zheng didn't look like he was going to leave, Mrs. Wang didn't think much about it, and said directly, "You, Aunt Zhou and Huan'er can live together in the back room! There are seven rooms in the back room, which is enough. "
At this time, Jia Huan just followed Aunt Zhao to find her.Seeing that Mrs. Wang and Jia Zheng were there, they just said they came to pay their respects.
Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Huan'er, go and clean it up! There are seven rooms in the back room, and I will give you two rooms. You pick them out!"
Jia Zheng was lamenting Mrs. Wang's virtuousness, but he heard Jia Huan say: "Madam, why do I live in the back room? Now that I am old, although the house is not big now, and the second brother Bao also lives in the inner courtyard. But after that The shade room is the inner courtyard of the inner courtyard, and every day you come and go, you have to pass through the wife's courtyard, which may be inconvenient..."
When Jia Zheng heard this, he hurriedly said, "That's the reason! Huan'er is about to be fifteen or sixteen years old. It's really wrong to go around the main house every day."
Mrs. Wang had no choice but to ask Jia Huan with a straight face: "I arranged for you well, but I didn't expect you to say so many reasons. Then you can talk about it yourself!"
Jia Huan smiled at Jia Zheng: "The east is respected and the west is humble. Since the second brother Bao lives in the east wing, I will live in the west wing!"
Before Mrs. Wang could answer, Jia Zheng said, "That's fine. I wanted to let your brothers live in the same yard, and study together so as to encourage each other. There are so many people in Baoyu! Now he lives in the East Wing and you live in it." In the west chamber, it’s cheaper to go to and from the corridor.”
Jia Huan said again: "In Rongfu, Huan'er lived in a big courtyard with his two aunts. Now the house is small, so it's inevitable to be crowded. It's better to ask the two aunts to live together in the West Wing. There are three people on the left and right. The room is just enough to live in. The back room is reserved for the future, if there are any relatives from my wife's place, I will have a place to live in!"
Jia Zheng clapped his hands and laughed, "Good! Good! Good! My son is smart and filial! How thoughtful he is!"
Mrs. Wang went back to the room alone angrily.
Who would have thought that there would be maids going back and forth at night, and the master ordered dinner to be served in the west wing room today.He also told his wife not to wait, the master will be staying there tonight.
It was like this for several days.
Although it will be better in the future, I will only come to the main room on two or three days out of ten.Mrs. Wang could hardly see Jia Zheng's face!
After throwing down wave after wave of teacups, Mrs. Wang finally remembered and called Zhou Rui's family for questioning.
Zhou Rui's family thought about it for a while, and suddenly shouted: "It's amazing! You have such a scheming!"
Mrs. Wang said anxiously: "What's going on!"
Zhou Rui's family said: "Madam, do the math, isn't the day when the master lives in the west wing room just the day when the master goes out? The master entered the inner courtyard and walked along the corridor. When he saw a fork in the road, he wanted to go to the east wing room to see Baoyu's house." Come out of the East Wing and go straight, why don't you just stop by and see Brother Huan? Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhou are both there!"
Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth in hatred, "Well, well, the two of them have such a scheming plan. I'm blind. I didn't see it in the past!"
Zhou Rui's family asked suspiciously: "No, ma'am. If the two of them had such abilities, how could they be in this situation?"
Baoyu's house is not peaceful either.
After Baoyu was beaten that year, Sheyue often hid in her room and didn't like to see people.
Although Xiren said that he wanted to lure Baoyu to eat the "good food" cooked by Yuchuan himself, except when eating, he often ignored Baoyu and scratched Baoyu's heart and lungs anxiously.
Qiuwen knows how to observe words and looks best. Seeing Xiren and Sheyue alienate Baoyu, although she doesn't know why, she knows what is good or bad, and gradually stops rushing ahead.
The newly transferred jade bracelet was devoted to running the small kitchen, and even seldom dangled in front of Baoyu.
In this way, Bihen, Qixia, Tanyun, and Jiahui, who were originally second-class, are like first-class maids, taking care of Baoyu-related matters everywhere.And the third-class maidservants also became more active, and rushed to Baoyu in a hurry, eagerly hoping that Baoyu would take a fancy to which one would soar to the sky.
Especially the fourth and fifth children.When Qingwen just left, the two of them began to make do with Baoyu, hoping to win Baoyu's favor.
Even if she can't take over Qingwen's errand, someone must take over what Qingwen was in charge of!The theory should be promoted from the second class.No matter which one of Bihen, Qixia, Tan Yun, and Jiahui is a first-class student, wouldn't there be a vacancy for a second-class student?
But I don't want to, Mrs. Wang said lightly, and then came a jade bracelet that Baoyu liked more than herself, and took the lead in covering Qingwen's deficiency, but made herself lag behind!
The fourth and fifth sons were not happy.
What will that jade bracelet do?It's just being a cook in a small kitchen all day long!It seems that the Jia family can't afford to hire a cook!Otherwise, I want to steal Liu's sister-in-law's job!
Qingwen can also sew and mend clothes and hats for Baoyu Guanguan!That Yu Chuan'er actually threw all the work on the attacker's head, thinking it was all right!
Don't you just know how to cook a few dishes!
Si'er and Wu'er figured, if Yu Chuan can cook, so can the two of them!Besides, if you please sister-in-law Liu and ask sister-in-law Liu to give you a little trick, you still worry about not being able to cook good dishes?
So on this day, the two of them brought a snack box to Baoyu's room each.
It happened that Xiren and Yuchuan were coaxing Baoyu to eat vegetables together.
Jia Zheng's house moved out of Rongguo Mansion, so he had to spend his own money for everything.Not to mention the fresh goods borrowed from Jiamu's kitchen, it is the money spent on the account of the big kitchen at home on weekdays, which makes Mrs. Wang's heart ache.
Fortunately, he came out of Jia's mansion, without such a spirited ancestor as Jia's mother, and Mrs. Wang herself has little knowledge, so Yu Chuan's "medicinal diet" can be made with confidence and boldness.
There is only one thing, Baoyu used to eat delicacies from mountains and seas in the past, and he never tires of fine and delicate dishes, but suddenly changed to home-cooked dishes, even if Yu Chuan changed them carefully, it was still hard for him to swallow.
When Sier and Wuer saw each other, they thought it was their chance.Hastily holding up the food box, she said with a charming smile, "Second Master Bao, we also made some side dishes, try to see if it suits your taste."
Baoyu laughed and said, "Put it out and have a look. I haven't had any appetite these days!"
Yuchuan and Xiren looked at each other, and said: "Let me see. Don't have any contradictory things mixed in. You might get sick from eating." Then, he opened the food box.
Si'er and Wu'er looked at Yu Chuan nervously, afraid that she might say something bad.
Yu Chuan took a cursory look at it, and found that it was just a matter of time.It looks like sister-in-law Liu taught it.That's right, where do these two little girls have the spare money to buy delicacies!Then he laughed and said, "It looks good, Xiren, you have a taste."
Baoyu took a piece of purple and tasted it first, and praised: "It's really ingenious!"
Pretending to be jealous, Xiren put down his chopsticks and said, "Everyone with ingenuity is as beautiful as a flower. People like me are not beautiful and have clumsy hands and feet, so they don't need to eat!"
Baoyu, who was stunned for a while, sent over to persuade the attackers.
Yuchuan smiled and watched Baoyu screaming to feed the cats with the food from Si'er and Wu'er, and asked Yuchuan to take them away regardless of how they were about to cry.
Before leaving, Yuchuan said to Baoyu with a smile, "Xiren is not happy to eat, so you should try to coax her. She was worried about you a few years ago, and she suffered a serious illness. Can you not eat! If she doesn't eat, you can show her, you will eat her every bite, and there will always be time to finish!"
After finishing speaking, she dragged Si'er and Wu'er, who were crying pear blossoms and rain, and went out of the room together.
When I came to the yard, I ran into Qiuwen, smiled and threw the two of them to her, "Teach these two little girls well. They are so good, how can you send food to Baoyu's room casually! If they are spoiled, ten We are not enough to pay!"
