Red Mansions: No Tears
Chapter 50 Doubt
? Lin Daiyu would say those words to Wang Xifeng, but she didn't really want to wake her up. She just felt that Jia's mother sent people to pick her up to the Rongguo mansion again and again, but the women never thought about it. After all, she is also a master, and every time she enters the gate of Lin's house, she puts on a face with her eyes above the top and benevolent, as if it is an honor for them to come and pick her up to Rongguo Duke's mansion, and she doesn't see the slightest bit. In the meaning of respect, do you really think of her as a poor relative of Daqiufeng?She was also really tired of having to deal with such things over and over again, she didn't expect that even Wang Xifeng would be sent out today, and thinking of her body that had just recovered from an illness, she simply came up with this method, to see if they could fight in the nest for a while , so as not to always focus on himself or the Lin family.
Lin Daiyu couldn't believe or agree with the reason that Mother Jia had passed on her 'missing her granddaughter' because she was not the original owner. Just from the perspective of an outsider, during the few months when she lived temporarily in the Rongguo mansion, she didn't feel Jia's mother's affection for her granddaughter at all, and...even if it doesn't mention that Jia's family always loves vanity , no profit and no early nature, not to mention whether Jia's mother has seen that her "granddaughter" has no intention of getting close to her at all, even the modern society in which she lived in her previous life is rarely so willing to be sincere. Relatives and friends who are considerate of others, how many elders only see that they can give them face, or look at promising juniors, unless there are really no other children to surround their knees, otherwise they will never give them a little more good looks. The juniors I look down on, as for those who are juniors, they are also willing to waste a little bit of my spare time to please them because they are greedy for the property they still hold in their hands and have other plans. It's not because of the entanglement of interests, it's not for an excuse to have a close relationship with each other, who has time to care about the messy things of those poor people around them? !
Lin Daiyu never believed that there is such a family relationship where blood is thicker than water, but rather believes that brothers should also settle accounts clearly. In this case, even brothers will have a day of fighting against each other, not to mention that the ancients still had married daughters and splashed water. Generally, if it is spilled, there is no reason to take it back. If a married daughter loses the support of her husband's family one day, her mother's family may not be willing to take in one or two. Of course, there are exceptions. It's a pity. Most of the time, money is easy to talk about, so if you miss something or not, it is definitely a cloud! !
After Lin Daiyu thought about it again and again, she tended to think that Jia Mu actually didn't believe in the Lin family...or she had no money in her hands. She guessed how much money the Lin family had in the past. I am afraid that Jia Min had treated Jia Min before his death. The mother revealed a little information, and the Lin family used to be the family of Liehou, so the grandmothers of the previous generations were naturally from the noble family, so can the dowry be reduced?There is also the dowry that Jia Min brought when she passed the door. Those things were all things that could be seen on the bright side. She didn't know how many things Jia Lian brought back from the Lin family back to Rongguo Duke's mansion, but it was obvious to Jia's mother. In other words, those things are far less than what she estimated, right?That's why Mother Jia has always been reluctant to give up her granddaughter, who seems to have no use value, but it is possible... that Jia Baoyu who often suffers from epilepsy is also one of the reasons why Mother Jia cannot give up on her?
Wang Xifeng was sitting on the carriage back home, her serious illness was getting worse and her worries made her look a little paler than when she came here, Ping'er saw her at the side, half distressed, half worried: "Grandma, I thought that what Ms. Lin said just now might be a bit offensive, but it is not unreasonable. Who doesn't know that the old lady has always been partial to the master. I handed it over to my wife, I was thinking... When you entered the door, your wife immediately handed over the housekeeping power generously, maybe it was because you wanted others to see the mistake, thinking that the right of the Rongguo mansion was still in the hands of the big housekeeper Here, after all, the second master is the son of the eldest master, you and the second master are naturally considered to be the elders, and it is a legitimate thing to be a housekeeper, but in reality?"
"Actually, the keys to all the treasuries of the Rongguo Mansion are still in the hands of my wife. I usually only do some trivial housework. It is said that I am the mistress in power, but when it comes to big things, I have to be old." Wife, wife makes up her mind, I can't do anything... Heh~ I didn't realize until today that I am really a fool." Wang Xifeng is not stupid at all, but she just trusts her own aunt too much, thinking that aunt is caring about them. For the sake of the daughter of the Wang family, after she married into the Rongguo mansion, she would hand over the power of the house to her without saying a word, and let her call the wind and rain in the Rongguo mansion, so majestic, but Now that someone punctured the window paper, she finally understood... She is just a more powerful housekeeper, how different is she from those housekeepers' wives?In the eyes of the servants in Rongguo's mansion, she is a picky, aggressive and jealous woman, while my aunt has a reputation of being kind and soft-hearted, but is that really the case?
"Sigh~ Grandma used to fill in a lot of her own dowry for the expenses of the mansion, but she didn't expect... Don't be sad, grandma, since we all know that our situation in the mansion is doomed, it's better to be like Lin The girl said, let go of what should be let go, on the other side of the big room... No matter how bad the old master is, at least the second master's ability can still support a bit of appearance. Although the master is an official, it's a pity that the fifth-rank officials in the entire capital are still Is it less? After all, don’t we all rely on the plaque on the gate of Rongguo Duke’s Mansion? Also, the old lady loves the second master Bao most in her heart. In the future, she will know everything in her hand Leaving it to the second master Bao, the public will be stretched, and the elders’ things can’t be obtained...Looking at it like that, maybe it’s true that grandma will plan for a lifetime, but in the end there will only be a result of getting nothing.” Ping’er It's rare to try to persuade Wang Xifeng. Although in her capacity, these words can be regarded as exceeding the norm, but why is her master always unable to understand certain people and certain things?
But Wang Xifeng shook his head lightly, and said: "Since you said that the second master is not unreasonable, of course I have to go back and ask him what he thinks, and ask him if he knows... Sigh~."
"That's right, so that the second master doesn't know about grandma's difficulties. Seeing that grandma doesn't even care about housework, he might misunderstand whether grandma deliberately wants to hand over the Rongguo mansion to the old man and his wife." Ping'er thought for a while. After a while, he immediately nodded in agreement.
After a long journey, Wang Xifeng's master and servant have reached a consensus, but the male master does not object. In the future, Wang Xifeng will try her best to leave the power of managing the inner house. Although the taste of power is good, it is only for face after all. He didn't intend to continue to use his own money to fill that bottomless pit. After returning to Rongguo Duke's mansion, Wang Xifeng didn't even take the initiative to go to Jiamu's Court to report the result of going to Lin's house today. After Madam reported that she suddenly felt unwell, she still thought that this unwellness is indeed a very useful excuse, so why don't you just do it tomorrow!
Mother Jia heard that Wang Xifeng was out of the house early in the morning, so she guessed that she must be going to the Lin family to pick up Lin Daiyu, but she waited and waited, and there was still no one in the afternoon, so she couldn't help but sent her mother-in-law to ask. She had already returned to the mansion, and as soon as she came back, she went directly to her yard. She neither came to her to report the results nor Lin Daiyu came back with her, which made Jiamu very angry.
"Look at it! Look at it! Is this Brother Feng sick and confused or something? But it's fine if he can't do a little thing well, and he doesn't come to me to say a word. This is not taking my old lady seriously. ?" Mother Jia said angrily to the mandarin duck beside her.
"Don't be angry, old lady. Maybe Second Mistress Lian is really sick. Didn't you hear the old woman say that Ping'er went to his wife's place and told her that Second Mistress Lian suddenly felt unwell on the way back?" Yuanyang coaxed patiently.
"Amber, you go and see if our Second Mistress Lian is really sick, or because she is afraid that I will blame her, so she dare not come." Mother Jia ordered with disbelief.
"Hey!" A voice outside the door responded briskly to Jia Mu's words, and after a burst of crackling, it suddenly fell silent again.
Not long after, a maid opened the curtain and came in, and replied softly: "Old lady, I just went to see Lian's second grandma, and Lian's second grandma really fell ill again, and the stove that had been resting for two days was once again on fire. The porch was set up, and when I went, Sister Ping'er was still staring at the little girl looking at the medicine pot on the stove, I didn't dare to ask more questions, so I turned back and reported to the old lady."
"You didn't go in and ask Miss Lin whether she will come back or not?" Mother Jia frowned, and then said: "Forget it, if you don't come back, you won't come back, Yuanyang, go to the storeroom and get the things Lai Nanny came in a few days ago." Find that branch of ginseng and give it to Brother Feng, so that she can keep healthy, and the affairs of the house are handled by my wife and grandma Zhu, so she doesn't need to worry about it for the time being."
The meaning of what Jiamu said sounds like she is going to give Wang Xifeng a cold shoulder?She thought that Wang Xifeng had always been strong, otherwise she wouldn't have been unable to let go of the housekeeper's affairs when she was in Xiaoyue. How could she expect that after Wang Xifeng went to the Lin family, more than half of her original greed for power and power would be lost, really. Not to mention An Xin raised her body, even if she recovered later, she never took the initiative to ask when she could take back the housekeeping rights.
Wang Xifeng is no longer a fool, but the Rongguo Mansion's expenses are not the slightest bit less. Thanks to Jia Tanchun and Xue Baochai's method of exchanging things for money, they managed to survive for a few months, but those servants were not all hardworking. It was new for a while at the beginning, and then one by one, as in the past, gradually hid away, and the money for the Rongguo Duke's mansion quickly bottomed out again. Li Wan and Jia Tanchun are not very confident people in terms of money. , and Xue Baochai, who was the only one who could afford money to make up for it, was an outsider, so he had to ask Mrs. Wang for the matter of running out of money in the house.
Unfortunately, Mrs. Wang cheated her own niece into the house because she didn't want to use her own money to fill the hole. Now Li Wan and the three want her to take the money... Naturally, it is still impossible! !In the end, the matter could only be stabbed to Jia's mother.
Jia's mother never thought that there would be a day when such a large Rongguo Duke's mansion would not be able to pay. She looked at the account book presented by Jia Tanchun with a sullen face. I took out some things from here and asked people to exchange them for money. Let's get over the immediate predicament first, but what about the future?Even Jia Mu herself didn't have that answer. ?
Lin Daiyu couldn't believe or agree with the reason that Mother Jia had passed on her 'missing her granddaughter' because she was not the original owner. Just from the perspective of an outsider, during the few months when she lived temporarily in the Rongguo mansion, she didn't feel Jia's mother's affection for her granddaughter at all, and...even if it doesn't mention that Jia's family always loves vanity , no profit and no early nature, not to mention whether Jia's mother has seen that her "granddaughter" has no intention of getting close to her at all, even the modern society in which she lived in her previous life is rarely so willing to be sincere.
