When Jia's mother went to the room, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Li Wan, Yingchun and other sisters, as well as a few deacons and dignified daughter-in-laws outside, all made fun of her.Sitting on the low-legged couch with the openworked dragon screen, Jiamu looked at Yingchun and other sisters sitting in rows below, and said with a smile: "These sisters are all here today. Why can't Baoyu be seen? Where did Baoyu go?"

Mrs. Wang leaned slightly in her seat, and replied: "I was called away by the master." Seeing that Jia Mu frowned, she understood Jia Mu's worry, and hurriedly added: "I heard that it is a cleaner from the master's side." I found an ancient book, so I called Baoyu to let him read it and gain a lot of knowledge, so I think it's not a problem."

Jia Mu said: "That's what you said, but you don't know that your master doesn't look good every time he sees Baoyu. He beats or scolds Baoyu. Even if he doesn't pay attention to Baoyu's knowledge this time, as long as there are ancient books, It's all difficult things, Baoyu can see what it is at such a young age." Jia Mu was a little worried, and ordered: "No, Yuanyang, send someone to look ahead, and if the master is angry with Baoyu, tell me that my name is Baoyu. Woolen cloth."

Yuanyang agreed, and went out to give orders in person. When she lifted the curtain and went out, she bumped into the opposite of everyone who came in a hurry.Yuanyang stepped back, stood still, and asked curiously: "Ms. Lai is in such a hurry, but what happened?"

Everyone Lai shook the letter paper in his hand to Yuanyang, and said with a smile: "The aunt in Yangzhou has sent a letter." The old lady is still talking about my aunt, and now my aunt has written a letter, which is really sweet, so I won't delay Aunt Lai."

Lai everyone smiled at the mandarin ducks, lifted the curtain and entered the house.When Mother Jia heard that Jia Min in Yangzhou had received a letter, she asked everyone Lai to bring the letter quickly, and hurriedly asked Amber to bring her glasses case, put on her glasses, and opened Jia Min's letter carefully. looked up.After reading Jia Min's letter again and again, after a while, Mother Jia took off her glasses, wiped the moist corners of her eyes, and sighed: "Every time Min'er writes, she always says that she is fine. Since she got married, Except for the first two years because my uncle was working in the Imperial Academy in Beijing, our mother and I could still see each other. Since my uncle was sent to a foreign post, we have never seen each other again. She followed my uncle to various places. In order not to worry me, Every time I get a letter, I always report good news but not bad news, and I don't know how she is doing?" Is it good or bad?

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Don't worry, old lady. My aunt and old lady are mother and daughter, so there is nothing to say. Since my aunt didn't mention it in her letter, I think it's really good. Although Mrs. Lin is out of town She has a job, but the person is capable and the official is doing well. My aunt now has a son and a daughter, and both daughters. The old man and the old lady of the Lin family have passed away long ago, and the aunt is the master of the family. I think life will be smooth, and I say It is not allowed when Uncle Lin will be promoted to be an official in the middle of the capital, then the old lady and the aunt and mother and daughter will be able to reunite."

Tan Chun wrote on the side: "Although my granddaughter has never been to Yangzhou, the ancients said that 'fireworks go to Yangzhou in March'. It is said that the prosperity of Yangzhou does not let the capital, and my uncle is a salt teacher and holds an important position. I want to come to my aunt's letter." It is true."

"Although Yangzhou is prosperous, the customs and eating habits are quite different from those in Beijing and China. Min'er grew up in Beijing and China, so you can get used to it in no time. Besides, it's only been two years since your uncle took a job in Yangzhou. There are not no remote places. Your aunt has been running around with your uncle all the time. She is not very strong. Passed away, there is no one to help her share, and she is only tired, how can she be better? Otherwise, Min'er would not have given birth to Lin's family daughter until a few years ago, and I don't know how much I have suffered all these years Well, it’s just that I’m worried and won’t tell me.” Although Jia’s mother’s words appeared to be addressed to Tanchun, they were actually addressed to Mrs. Wang, and the words listed by Mrs. Wang were “ Benefits" were refuted one by one.

"What the old lady said is true, but the daughter-in-law is not thinking carefully." Mrs. Wang said with a smile.Although nothing could be seen from her expression, Luo Chun noticed that Mrs. Wang's right hand was unconsciously caressing the Buddhist beads on her left wrist, and her mood was definitely not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

Thinking that it was because Jia Min allowed herself to be blamed for her innocence, Mrs. Wang couldn't help feeling a surge of resentment in her heart.Even if my sister-in-law is married, it doesn't make people worry, but Mrs. Wang doesn't see any resentment on her face.She pursed her lips and suggested: "Since the old lady misses my aunt, it is very convenient to go to the capital from Yangzhou now, why not send someone to visit my aunt."

Mother Jia said with a smile on her face: "If you really do things like this, that's good." Although Mother Jia was eager to do so, she still couldn't help saying, "It's just that the family affairs are complicated now, but there are still people who can go here to go here." A trip? Why don't you wait for the Lin family to send the festival gift and listen to the Lin family's report, or like Min'er, just use the post station to deliver the letter, why waste time and effort, it's too troublesome."

Mrs. Wang cursed in her heart, and said with a smile: "No trouble, it just so happens that the mansion is going to Jinling to buy some things for Lian'er's marriage. Ma'am, it's cheaper than two times. And my aunt and I happen to have something for my aunt, and it's my sister-in-law's kindness to take this ride and give it to my aunt."

Hearing what Mrs. Wang said, Luo Chun, who had been listening to Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang's mystery, rolled her eyes, and immediately gave Jinping a wink behind Mrs. Xing. Jinping reacted, reached out and gently poked Mrs. Xing , when Mrs. Xing looked sideways, she first pouted at Luochun, then subtly nodded at Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu with her chin, and then silently pointed at Mrs. Xing with her lips. It's been a long time, but in fact, it just happened in the blink of an eye, and no one noticed except the person involved.After Mrs. Xing understood it, she hesitated for a moment, and said, "I also have something for my aunt. Don't forget about the second wife, remember to send someone to pick it up."

His words attracted the attention of Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang, both of them were very surprised. In the past, Mrs. Xing was not incapable of spending money and things like this, but she always avoided it when she could. What's worse, I never took the initiative. It's raining red today, and it's uncharacteristically surprising.Mrs. Wang smiled, and said as if she understood: "Then I will send someone to pick up the things that Dafang gave to the aunt." She deliberately emphasized the word "Dafang" to imply that the people present Well, it's not that Mrs. Xing suddenly became generous, the big house actually paid the bill.

A group of people had fun in Jia Mu's main room for a while, and then they dispersed. After Mrs. Xing and Luo Chun resigned from Jia Mu's place, they came to Luo Chun's place together.After entering the room, before she was seated, Madam Xing couldn't wait to say: "I have already said what I said here, and I can't get anything out at that time, but it's a joke. Don't think that your aunt and your father are brothers and sisters, but he The relationship between the two is not very good. Whether your aunt is at home or married, she is always close to the second room. For no reason, your father may not be willing to pay the money. If you can't convince your father then, what do you do? This time It’s not that I, as a mother, don’t help you. Do you not know the relationship between me and your father? I'll send it to your aunt later, and your aunt doesn't like it, so I won't lose this person. So you have to think about it, how to tell your father, if it really doesn't work, look at Lian'er, let him He helped to think of a way. If it is really impossible in the end..." Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang thought the same thing, and thought that this thing came from the big house.

Mrs. Xing thought of the result of not being able to get the things out, she gritted her teeth, decided to take the matter over, and said ruthlessly: "That's okay, anyway, I said it anyway, if you can't get it out, you can't get it out, the worst is to be laughed at again Just once, anyway, I'm used to being laughed at, so it doesn't matter."

"Don't worry, things won't fall to that point, I won't make things difficult for mother." Luo Chun was moved by Mrs. Xing's attitude, hugged her arm, and snuggled into her arms.Although Mrs. Xing has many flaws that people criticize, but she has nothing to say to Luochun's heart, she is definitely a competent mother.Facing Mrs. Xing's sincerity, Luo Chun naturally responded with sincerity.

Luochun had long thought about what to give to the Lin family.From Lin Hai to Jia Min, to Daiyu and her younger brother, the Lin family is not in good health. There are a lot of traditional Chinese medicines planted in Luochun's planting space. They are very old and precious. It is most suitable to send these things to the Lin family.

Luochun has no intention of being a savior. Currently, in this world, she doesn't care about anyone other than Mrs. Xing.Therefore, she does not have a strong desire to help the Lin family, nor does she think that she must change the fate of the Lin family, but within the scope of her ability, she does not mind helping the Lin family. If the fate of the Lin family changes, of course it is good, if No, it's okay.Right now, the most fundamental purpose of everything she does is for her and Mrs. Xing to live a better life. Taking this as a starting point, she does not hesitate to do something to see if it can change the development track of the story.

Mentioning Jia Min, Luochun's eyes flickered, and he asked: "Mother, I heard that the aunt and father who married Uncle Lin are from the same mother, and they were all descended from the old lady, but above her, there are three more... Concubine's aunt, I don't know what's going on with them?"

In the end, Jia's house ended up being ransacked. Although there were reasons for his own death, it was not unrelated to the death of Prince Teng, the pillar of the sky among the four major families.After careful calculation, the Jia family's powerful in-laws, apart from the Wang family, Shi family, and Xue family, which are listed as the four major families with the Jia family, are only the Lin family.As for the other families in the "Four Kings and Eight Dukes" who are also known as the Jia family, although they have a good relationship on weekdays, they are all icing on the cake. It is impossible to expect them to help when they are really down.

But among these in-laws, Lin Ruhai from the Lin family passed away early, leaving only an orphan girl living in Jia's family.The Xue family has even declined to the point of relying on the Jia family and the Wang family to survive. Once something happens to the Wang family and the Jia family, it does not need others to do anything, and it will also decline.In fact, the historian is the same as the Jia family, with only an empty title left, no real power, and the family finances have long been difficult, but they just barely put up a shelf. Sometimes, it is powerless to help.Therefore, the Jia family really has real power, and the only in-laws that can be counted on are the Lin family and the Wang family, but in the end, there is only one orphan girl left in the Lin family, so they can't be counted on, so they only rely on Wang Ziteng to support him there. The Hulasha Building collapsed.

The in-laws of the earlier generation may not be able to get in touch because they have a long relationship and have not moved for a long time, but the three concubine aunts of the Jia family are not far away, and based on the situation of the Jia family at that time, they should marry All of them are officials and eunuchs. If they move around, they can be a helping hand if they really need something in the future.With this in mind, Luochun asked the three concubine aunts in the mansion.

Although Mrs. Xing didn't know what Luochun was up to, but when she heard her mentioning this, she asked suspiciously: "Why are you mentioning them for no reason?" After thinking for a while, "They don't seem to be around anymore. It is said that my aunt passed away not long after she got married. I didn’t even have a child left. When the second aunt passed away, I hadn’t married in yet, and the year I gave birth to you, the third aunt passed away.”

Although she had already made some preparations in her heart, Luochun was still a little surprised by this result. She didn't expect them to die so early. "Then mother, do you know what kind of family they married? Are you still walking around in the mansion and the homes of the uncles?"

"What are you asking about this?" Mrs. Xing asked wonderingly.Shaking his head, "I'm not very clear about this, but I probably don't move around anymore. Although I don't care about the house, every year when the in-laws give boxing and annual gifts, every house has a share. I didn't see you among them Something from my uncle's house."

"Oh." Although it was the expected result, Luochun was still a little disappointed.Mrs. Xing glanced at Luochun, and asked inquiringly, "Why are you asking this? What's the matter?"

"It's okay, I'm just asking casually." Luo Chun replied perfunctorily.Seeing that her original plan was useless, she didn't intend to tell Mrs. Xing about her plan, so as not to cause complications, she turned the topic to the Xing family who had already left for Beijing.

Although Mrs. Xing's attention was diverted, she still kept Luochun's question in mind, and was going to go back to the old man in the mansion to find out the matter clearly before telling Luochun.

After talking about Xing's family affairs, Mrs. Xing drank another cup of tea at Luochun's place, sat for a while before leaving, Luochun sent Mrs. Xing away, and after returning to her room, she leaned against the bed, thinking about her thoughts quietly.
