Red Mansions: No Tears

Chapter 73 Three Trigrams

Mrs. Jiang stayed at the Lin family until noon before leaving. Naturally, she didn't have so much curiosity to wait for the news from Rongguo's mansion. It's still more important now that her marriage is more important. After it's done, many people from Jiang's family will come to the capital in two days, and they made a special trip to attend Jiang Ke's wedding banquet.

In fact, the wedding date of Jiang Ke and Lin Daiyu has long been optimistic about the auspicious date. Mrs. Jiang directly chose the only good day before the year without saying anything. Lin Yu also knows that the ages of Jiang Ke and Lin Daiyu are considered old in this era. Men and women, if there is not such a marriage contract, they will probably have to add another term called "leftover men and leftover women"... So there is no objection to this auspicious date.

This matter will not be mentioned for the time being, and the topic will come back to the present.

Luyi stayed at the Rongguo Mansion until very late before returning to Lin's house before the curfew. She reported to Zhao Hua and Lin Daiyu: "The old lady in-law is fine, and I asked my servant to come back and tell the eldest girl, so that she can feel at ease. Marriage, there is no need to go to visit, after two days, she will order the family to come over to help the county lord and the eldest girl prepare for the wedding."

"What else is their family going to do?! And who can come? Didn't Second Mistress Lian let people say that she had good news a few days ago, and she wanted to have a good baby this time, so she told you in advance that you were ready?" She will definitely not be able to help with the marriage, so is it possible that besides Lian's Second Grandma, there is another talented person in Rongguo's mansion?" Zhao Hua said with a look of surprise.

"I don't know about this servant girl, but I heard some rumors outside the door in the afternoon, as if the old lady asked the second uncle and wife to find out all the things that were stolen from the old master and return them to the eldest girl." Lu Yi thought. After a moment, he continued.

"Can she find it?" Zhao Hua was stunned for a moment. She knew that her husband was holding onto the property that the Jia family had coveted, and planned to take the opportunity to break up with their family. If the Jia family really returned the things Come back, can this reason still be used?

"Second aunt can't return it, not to mention she can't return it, even the things that the old lady took away are impossible to return one by one." Lin Daiyu didn't care much about this matter.

"How to say?" Zhao Hua was still a little confused at first, but soon figured it out, she suddenly nodded, and said: "Yes, I heard that there are many good decorations in that Grand View Garden, the second uncle and wife I'm sure she won't be able to give out that much for a while, even if she has it, she won't be willing to part with it, right? Guess most of those things belong to the Lin family?"

"Well! And I think there should be quite a few things that were sent to the palace by the second aunt." Lin Daiyu nodded in response.

"The concubines in the palace usually spend a lot of money to manage the servants, even the empress is not immune, let alone be more stingy than others... But maybe the Jia family will not need to spend this money soon .” Zhao Hua sighed in agreement.

"Huh!?" Lin Daiyu was stunned for a moment, then asked again: "But what happened to that eldest cousin in my palace?"

"Isn't that right? Didn't I go back to the palace the day before yesterday? It was rare that my concubine was free that day, so she chatted with me about family matters. When the concubine concubine went to pay her respects to the empress one day two or three months ago, she suddenly fainted in public. The empress ordered someone to take her back to her bedroom, and also called the imperial physician to go for a consultation, but she did not expect the imperial physician to report to the empress that The virtuous concubine must have been ill for a long time, and she had obviously taken medicine for a long time. After hearing the news, the empress was furious on the spot, and angrily summoned her to take the pulse of the concubines on weekdays. It took a long time to find out that Concubine Xiande actually knew something was wrong with her body as early as last year, but she deliberately concealed it. In a fit of anger, the Empress ordered Concubine Xiande to be confined in Fengzao Palace, and at the same time put this Tell the emperor, the emperor is very angry at the moment, although there is no explicit decree to convict, but he must be very dissatisfied in his heart, how to say, the emperor's dragon body is always the most important, the rules in the palace are the most common , The court ladies and eunuchs who never show up in front of the masters have to be sent out of the palace for treatment if they are sick, and they may not be able to return to the palace to serve as errands when they recover, let alone the empresses of the palace? They all serve the emperor's pillow. Health should not be neglected. The virtuous concubine knew that she was sick, but she never reported to the empress, nor did she ask the emperor to go to other empresses when the emperor went to her Fengzao Palace. Fortunately, the emperor seldom went to Fengzao in Japan. Palace, otherwise something serious is going to happen?" Zhao Hua told Lin Daiyu more carefully than what she told everyone in Jia's family.

The sick concubine in the harem is not only not treated properly, but also close to the emperor as usual, and may even have sex with the emperor. Lin Daiyu is convinced that this kind of practice is definitely the rhythm of seeking death. How dare Jia Yuanchun fool the emperor like this?Even if the emperor didn't directly punish her for the treasonous crime at that time, there would definitely be a lot of reconciliation after the autumn. It seems that Jia Yuanchun's illness should not be cured.

"The emperor shouldn't be angry with the Jia family, right? Apart from the title of eldest uncle, the Jia family doesn't seem to have anything that the emperor can punish." Lin Daiyu guessed.

"I'm not sure about this, but I think the people in the Jia family are quite stupid, and they probably won't commit any major crimes, so there's no need to worry too much about them." Zhao Hua thought that the Jia family would only pretend to be powerful, bully others, and be a villain. They may have done a lot of small frauds, but if something big happens, I'm afraid they will slip away faster than anyone else, and such people naturally have no chance to make any big mistakes.

"I'm afraid my sister-in-law will underestimate them... Does my sister-in-law know that the Jia family and the Zhen family are old friends? Every time when the Zhen family has female relatives coming to Beijing, they will go to the Rongguo mansion to visit the old lady. A few days ago, it seemed that my brother said , the emperor has been dissatisfied with the Zhen family for a long time, and I am afraid that he is going to find their fault, tell me, will the Jia family be implicated by the Zhen family?" Lin Daiyu shook her head helplessly, she did not think that the Jia family could not make big mistakes, just Mrs. Wang's greed for money is enough to cause many disasters for the Jia family... But she never thought of taking care of the family's mess.

"Huh? The two of them still have this kind of relationship?! That's really hard to say." Zhao Hua muttered, thinking that the relationship between this family is really complicated... If it is really going to be implicated, then it must be No one can save it, right?But she's just an inner house girl, she can't understand this kind of thing.

"Since that's the case, let's not talk about it. My sister-in-law came to help me look at this purse. How do you think it's embroidered? My aunt was here just now. I didn't dare to take it out. I was afraid that if the embroidery was not good, I would ask my aunt to embroider it." Leave a bad impression." Lin Daiyu knew that the topic of Jia's family could no longer continue, she quickly motioned to Ziyun to bring the sewing basket, took out a half-finished product inside, and pretended to be guilty to ask Zhao Hua for advice from female celebrities.

The next day, after thinking about it for a while, Lin Daiyu ordered Mother Su and Ziyun to prepare a gift and send it to Rongguo Duke's Mansion. One was to greet Jia's mother's health, and the other was to inform Jia's family of the auspicious day when she left the pavilion. If she doesn't come, it has nothing to do with her. Anyway, she doesn't have to be like Zhao Hua, because she is married into the Lin family, and she has to pretend to visit relatives in the Rongguo mansion.

After Su Momo came back, she only said that Jia Mu's complexion was rosy, and she seemed to be fine, but she didn't say much else, but Ziyun said very angrily to Lin Daiyu and her good sisters: "The second uncle and wife look She knew that she definitely did not sincerely want to return the things to us. She heard that Madam Su and I had gone to the old lady’s house, and ran there in a hurry, and then said hypocritically in front of us, "My lady is in the palace." Now I don't know what kind of thing it is, and the daughter-in-law is still looking forward to finding some ways to find out the news', and what she said, 'Miss Su Zhilin is a kind-hearted girl, and she never wants to see her own cousin. Suffering in the palace'... Is this hoping that we will stand up for her? Or for her mother?!"

"Whatever she thinks? It's none of our business anyway, and did she say anything? Didn't she? You didn't see Madam Su's calm face, and you were the only one who took other people's words seriously like a fool. "Lin Daiyu rolled her eyes angrily and said.

"Of course I know that the girl will never care about their idea, but seeing her take it for granted, it's hard not to get angry!" Ziyun still said indignantly.

"Come on! Come on! I know you are loyal. I just heard that Madam Jiang was busy in the kitchen again early in the morning. I don't know what delicious dishes to cook for the girl. If you have nothing to do, you might as well go and have a look. ?" Xueyan suppressed a smile, coaxing Ziyun to the kitchen.

"Hey!? Really? What did my mother cook today? Girl, I'll go and see for you first, and if it's good, I'll bring it back!" Ziyun heard that there was something delicious, and immediately forgot about her anger, and even lost her manners. Without hesitation, he dropped a sentence and ran out in a hurry.

"How old is this Ziyun, why is she still so reckless? The girl should also arrest her, after all, she is the big servant girl by the girl's side." Yuma Yu couldn't help shaking her head and sighing when she saw this.

"Anyway, after going to Jiang's house in the future, I'm afraid we should marry someone in a few years, and it won't hurt us for a long time. Besides, Madam Yu always seems to be open-mouthed, but what should I say? How could she not understand what she shouldn't say? You have watched her grow up, don't you know what kind of temperament she is." Lin Daiyu smiled, the standards of the older generation and the young Generations are not quite the same, Mammy Yu probably thought that people like Xueyan and Ziyun would be kept as maids in charge, and those like Chunxiao Xialing, if they were brought up again in the future, they might become aunts The backup candidates for Tongfang and others, but she herself knew that no matter whether Jiang Ke needed to take a concubine in the future, that person would never be selected from among the maids around her.

After hearing these words, Aunt Yu did not refute, but subconsciously glanced sideways at Qiu Yu Dong Zhi, who was waiting in the room, and lowered her head thoughtfully in silence. It seemed that it was really what Lin Daiyu had guessed. In that way, Nanny Yu may be secretly thinking that it would be more appropriate to bring that maid up to Jiang Ke to be the housekeeper in the future. ?
