[Red Mansions] The Great Sage gets married

Lin Ruhai was still working in the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, and Mrs. Fang went to Rongguo Mansion to pick up the girl, so Tian Yuanzhi had to receive Mrs. Feng.

Mrs. Feng is nearly sixty years old, her hair is almost completely white, and her clothes have a sour smell from being washed many times.

That day a fire broke out in the Gourd Temple, bringing disaster to her family and burning all the belongings.Later, although the whole family took refuge with her father, she lost her daughter and her husband disappeared from home. Her father, Feng Su, disliked her for spending the family.

Xiangling is Daiyu's guest. Although Lin's family is not as particular about food and clothing as Rongguo Mansion, the family of Taishi Mansion will not treat female guests lightly.So when she came out wearing a newly cut satin summer dress, she was stunned for a moment when she saw the ragged and bent mother.

Mrs. Feng's eyes were a little bit blind, she was sitting on a chair leaning on a bamboo stick, when she heard the footsteps, she turned her head to look, and could only see a blurred water-green figure.

"Yinglian..."

The voice was old and rough, but it made Xiangling's nose sore.She walked quickly to Madam Feng, stretched out her hand but dared not touch it.

Tian Yuanzhi didn't want to disturb their mother-daughter reunion, so he stood up, "Miss Ling, talk to your wife first, someone has already gone to pick up the eldest girl."

All the people in the flower hall left for a while, Xiang Ling touched Mrs. Feng's rough palm, and put her face in her palm to caress.

"Yinglian, my daughter!"

Madam Feng shed two lines of tears, touched the rouge mole between her eyebrows with her fingertips, and wept softly: "Today is just a dream, I really can't believe that mother and daughter will meet again..."

Xiangling was kidnapped when she was young, and followed the kidnapper from Gusu to Yangzhou, and was taken to the capital by Xue's family. The past has long been forgotten.But those hands caressing her face made her feel peaceful and warm.

"Be good, my mother is here..."

Xiangling really never imagined that there would be a day when she would return to her mother's arms, so she sobbed a few times and called out timidly, "Mother."

Madam Feng's face was full of tears, she touched the smooth and soft silk on her body, but suddenly stopped talking.

My daughter lives in this grand master's mansion, and is also a good friend of the grand master's daughter. If she recognizes herself as a poor woman, wouldn't she want to go back to Suzhou to live a hard life?When she reaches the age of marriage, will she just spend her whole life with traffickers and pawns, working hard every day?

She turned her head, hardened her heart, and said in a trembling voice: "I...I don't..."

"The girl is back!"

The servant girl's announcement interrupted Mrs. Feng's words. When she saw her daughter stand up, she followed suit and looked towards the door.

Her eyes were broken and she couldn't see clearly, so she could only smell a gust of fragrant wind. A slender woman walked up to her and gently took her hand.

"Madam, sit down quickly, Daiyu is a junior, it's my turn to greet Madam."

Daiyu.Mrs. Feng recited the name silently, knowing that she was Taishi Lin's daughter, she hurriedly said: "Young lady is a grass-roots person, so I shouldn't treat you like a young lady."

Daiyu was also slightly surprised to see that her clothes were shabby, and that although her temple hair was combed neatly, there was no decoration except the cloth scarf covering her head.

The women she sees every day, such as grandma and aunt, are all full of luxurious jewels, and the respectable women always have a few gold and silver hairpins.

It was the first time I saw someone as poor as Mrs. Feng.

The people sent reported that Xiangling's father was a prominent eunuch family in the Changmen area in the past, but he was indifferent by nature and had no intention of being an official, but he was considered a well-to-do family.Unexpectedly, it has fallen to this point in only eleven or twelve years.

Tian Yuanzhi ordered tea earlier, and Mrs. Fang ordered cakes to be delivered.Mrs. Feng used it a little bit, but Dai Xiangling alienated her a lot.

Xiangling's mood fluctuated violently, unable to notice this subtle change.Daiyu was young and inexperienced, so she only thought she was tired, so she hurriedly cleaned up the house and took care of her for a while to rest.

"Miss Lin," Xiangling blushed, "don't set up another room, please let my mother live with me."

She led her mother to her own yard, the little girl had boiled hot water, and Xiangling personally helped her take a bath, and changed into the new dress that the old lady gave her.

Madam Feng touched the fabric of her body in silence, Xiangling made the bed, and said softly: "Mother lies down and sleeps for a while, I... Yinglian will give mother a squeeze."

Mrs. Feng lowered her head and grinned wryly: "The old lady is already blind, girl...Your lady may not be the poor daughter of my family..."

Xiangling didn't expect her to say such a thing, she opened her mouth not knowing what to say, but felt a bitterness in her heart.

Daiyu was about to go back to her yard, passing by Xiangling Gate, when she saw her come out with her face covered, she hurriedly pulled her back.

"What's the matter?" Daiyu looked closely at her face, but she didn't look like she was crying with joy.

Xiangling choked and said, with doubts in her heart, "After so many years, I don't have a token with me, if..."

Daiyu was so happy for Xiangling, she really didn't expect such a thing to happen, "I have checked in many ways, there should be no mistakes."

She invited Xiangling to talk in the courtyard, and ordered Qingyuan and the two to fetch water for Xiangling to wash her face, and then went to change clothes by herself first.

Xueyan helped Daiyu undress and picked out two homely dresses for her.

Zijuan suddenly said: "Could it be that Mrs. Feng refused to recognize Xiangling on purpose?"

Daiyu was startled, Xueyan said: "How can there be people in the world who don't recognize their own flesh and blood?"

"Perhaps Madam is afraid that Xiangling will endure hardships with her." Sitting by the couch, Daiyu stared at the "Huaixuan Picture" hanging on the wall.

The Zhen family has been ruined, Master Zhen has gone somewhere, and Mrs. Feng is poor and old. When she goes, what should a young woman in Xiangling do?

Mrs. Feng's refusal to recognize Xiangling is just a kind mother's heart.

"We always wanted to help Xiangling go home, but we didn't think about what would happen when she went back."

Daiyu closed her eyes and thought about it, and went to find Mrs. Feng to talk to herself.

Mrs. Feng was weeping on the couch, when she heard that Miss Lin was coming, she hurriedly wiped her face with her hand, and was about to get up to greet her.

"Ma'am, sit down."

Daiyu sat down by the couch, although she knew she couldn't see, she still looked up and smiled.

"Does Madam have any relatives in Suzhou? I am also from Gusu. Since I came to Beijing, I haven't been back for many years."

Mrs. Feng said: "The old lady used to rely on her natal family to live, but now there is only one nephew in her family."

Daiyu nodded, fell silent for a moment, and told what happened to Xiangling over the years.

Mrs. Feng saw that her daughter was living in the Grand Master's Mansion, and she was wearing silk and satin. She only thought that she was adopted by a nobleman, but she never thought that there would be such a terrible past, so she almost fainted from crying.

The girl is noble, so Zijuan Xueyan helped Mrs. Feng soothe her back, and wiped her tears with a handkerchief. After finally persuading her, she continued to speak.

Daiyu said: "Madam, if she really feels that Xiangling is not Miss Zhen, I will arrange for someone to send Madam back to Gusu, and then continue to help Xiangling to investigate, so that her flesh and blood will always be reunited. But if Madam has any concerns, she dare not admit it. She really doesn't have to."

"Our family was originally from Gusu. If my wife and sister Xiangling go back, I can always ask the old to take care of me. If you want to stay in Beijing, you can even stay in our house for a long time."

Mrs. Feng was a little moved, but she still shook her head, "Miss Lin and her friendship will always give her a good future. At my age, I will only drag her down..."

Daiyu thought of her dead mother, and her eyes were slightly red.

"Yinglian is not afraid of being dragged down."

Xiangling stood in front of the door, holding the doorframe firmly with one hand, "I was beaten and scolded by the kidnapper every day, and I couldn't get enough to eat. I only thought that one day I could go back to my home and be loved by my parents like others... If What's the fun in living alone in this world all the time?"

Mrs. Feng staggered to the door, holding her daughter and crying bitterly.

"My niece, my Yinglian! I am your mother, the mother who gave birth to you in October—"

As long as she lives, she must let her daughter enjoy the loving care of the family, so that she will not be taught to be alone and bullied by others.

"girl……"

Xueyan gently wiped Daiyu's tears, accompanied by a red eye, "Although the madam is gone, I hope the girl is happy."

Daiyu responded, lowered her head and wiped away her tears, said with a smile, "Madam and Sister Xiangling, stop crying. The reunion of mother and daughter today should be considered a great joy in life."

Mrs. Fang has prepared a banquet and came to report to the girl.Seeing that Daiyu seemed to have cried, she sighed again when she thought of Jia Min who died young.

When Lin Ruhai came back from the Yamen, Mrs. Feng led her daughter to thank him repeatedly.

Lin Ruhai didn't take credit for it, so she declined and asked about their future plans.

The Zhen family and the Lin family are neither close nor old, although Daiyu paid for them to stay here for a long time, it is not the kind of family that should be educated and educated.

Mrs. Feng said: "Grandmaster Lin helped the old woman's mother and daughter reunite. This kind of great kindness cannot be repaid without a knot. But the old woman's husband is not related to the grand master, so he dare not have the audacity to live in the house , and fearing that one day the old woman...leaves her daughter with no one to take care of her, she wants to rent a house in Beijing and settle down by the prestige of the Grand Master."

Their mother and daughter are one old and one young, and if they really return to Gusu, with Xiangling's beauty, who will occupy and bully them.

Knowing her concerns, Lin Ruhai asked Tian Yuanzhi to help buy a small courtyard near her home.

After hearing what her father had said, Daiyu told Mrs. Fang to send someone to clean up the arrangement, and she also sent an old man who was a janitor and a little girl who helped with rough work.

Xiang Ling didn't dare to accept her kindness, because she said: "Our mother and daughter don't have anything, and we are already terrified to receive this house as a gift from Mrs. Lin. How can we let others take care of us?"

It was still Mrs. Fang who said: "Miss Ling lives close to our mansion, but there are two places. What if something happens and there is no one to report it, how will Miss and Mrs. Feng take care of it?"

Mrs. Feng is already so old, if she suddenly had an emergency and delayed getting medical treatment, wouldn't she be gone?

Xiangling also thought of this, gritted her teeth and agreed.She owed too much to Miss Lin's father and daughter, so she could only look for opportunities to repay.

In order to be busy with Xiangling's relocation, Daiyu stayed at home for a few more days and sent Zijuan to report to her grandmother.

Once upon a time when Baochai lived in Jia's mansion, Jia's mother also saw Xiangling who followed her, but she only remembered that she was a little girl who loved to laugh.

Hearing that Zijuan said that she was a local eunuch, she sighed, and heard that Xiangling's mother and daughter were very embarrassed, so she ordered Yuanyang to open the box and take out 200 taels of silver.

"'It's not easy to live in the capital', they are orphans and widowed, take it to your body." Jia Mu sighed, and said: "The clothes made in the old year, there are several sets of clothes that have not been worn on the body, and they are also wrapped up. It’s cheap to give it to her, sell it or wear it.”

Sister Feng learned her lesson the first time she did evil, and she firmly believed in reincarnation.Now that she has both children and no shortage of money, she ordered Ping'er to send 100 taels of silver, which should be considered as a blessing for the three of them.

Ping'er packed the money with a bundle, and took 20 taels from his private house. He was going out with his arms in his arms, but was blocked by Jia Lian.

"Zicuckoo will leave in a while. If the money cannot be delivered, the second master will tell grandma by himself."

Jia Lian took out two banknotes from his sleeve and stuffed them into the bag, "She's talking to the second sister and the others in the garden, and she won't be able to leave for a while."

Ping'er didn't expect him to be able to give up the money, so he looked up and down in surprise, almost annoyed Jia Lian.She laughed and walked out of the yard quickly, and when she was far away, she lowered her head and uncovered the burden. When she saw that there were two 50 taels of silver bills, she silently recited "Amitabha".

The last time he was beaten up by King Zhongshun, it changed his character, as if the prodigal son turned back.

Jia Lian did not do good deeds.Seeing that Ping'er had gone far away, he secretly spat at the door of Sister Feng's room.

"Three mothers and children... Can you give birth alone without a master?"

The sisters in the garden heard what Zicuckoo said, and they each had something to give.

They buy some hair oil and rouge every two or two months, and reward the servants a few times, and very few can save it.The only thing that can be given to Xiangling is some clothes and jewelry, which can be counted as a gift.

Xiaohong also went to ask Wukong for instructions, and Wukong said, "Give her as many as there are in the room."

He never cared about the affairs in the yard, so he probably didn't even know how much money he had.Xiaohong shook her head, went to get the key and opened the box to count the money.

Zijuan felt a headache looking at those big bundles, but she was also happy for Xiangling, and was thinking about how to get the things back to the Lin residence, when she saw Xiaohong leading a cart boy over.

"Second Lord also has money for Miss Xiangling. I thought that sister Zijuan couldn't carry it, so I called the boy to push the cart."

Zijuan thanked Xiaohong and led the young man out of Rongguo Mansion.Because she serves the girl personally, she is not allowed to show her face outside, and there is a small sedan chair waiting for her at the door.

As soon as Xiren returned home from vacation, he saw Zijuan get on the sedan chair and leave from a distance, and his heart felt sore.

A decent girl like them is better than a young lady from a small family. She used to be so precious with Second Master Bao...

Since Mrs. Wang was locked in the Buddhist hall, the maids who served her were gradually forgotten by everyone, and the hottest days of attacking people have become a thing of the past.

Did Baoyu betray his heart too quickly, or Miss Lin seduced him, or...she really forgot her duty...

No one asked about Xiren's concerns, Zijuan returned to Lin's mansion with a big bag, but was greeted by a group of servants at the door, and someone pulled the servant of Jia's family to talk and eat wine.

When Zicuckoo came in, Xueyan saw the rough envoy woman coming in with several packages in her arms, and asked her why.

"The old lady rewarded Xiangling An's family with silver. Second Mistress Lian, the three girls, and Second Master Bao all had things. Sister Yuanyang and Ping'er also added some in private. After coming and going, that's all."

Xueyan opened her mouth and hurriedly counted the bags of silver, before she raised her head and said, "There are 870 three taels!"

Daiyu was writing, when she heard the words she smiled and said, "Then let's round it up and give 1000 taels to Xiangling."

Zicuckoo nodded in response, but felt strange in her heart.The old lady and the second grandmother didn't seem to give so much...

Seeing Yinzi, Xiangling looked at the bundle of clothes, knelt on the ground and kowtowed in the direction of Rongguo Mansion before accepting it.

The neighbors in the neighborhood often saw her mother and daughter interacting with the Taishi's house, and those troublesome people went outside the Taishi's mansion to inquire in private, and the servants only said that they were distant relatives of the master.

Master Lin is in the emperor's heart, so his relatives are not easy to offend.Therefore, when the neighbors come and go, Xiangling always feels that she is taken care of by others.

Now that they have rich family resources and the help of the Lin family, the mother and daughter spend their days behind closed doors, and they are unexpectedly free and happy.

Mrs. Feng was grateful for Lin Ruhai's father and daughter, and prayed for them with three sticks of heart incense every day, and often asked Xiangling to make some needlework for Miss Lin to send.

"There is no shortage of things in the Grand Master's Mansion, but it is also a little bit of our heart."

It was about to enter July, and Jinling Xuezheng finally finished evaluating the test papers and announced the results of the government test.

The servant of Jia's old house read the list, and immediately sent a letter to the Rongguo Mansion in the capital.
