Chapter 26 The Red Chamber (26)(1/2)
&1t;script>Red Building 26
Jia Mu walked in and saw it, and knew what was going on. She glanced at Wang and said, "What are you talking and shouting. Let people know, what good reputation can you have." She ordered Musk Moon who followed Yuanyang, "Should you go to dress your master, and these people stand here and scare him again."
Musk Moon lowered her head, responded, and hurried over. But she didn't dare to be as close as usual.
Jia Mu asked Mrs. Wang to go to the main hall together. She beat the girls and left Yuanyang and Zhou Rui's family.
When Wang heard that Jia Mu talked about Guan Baoyu's reputation, he immediately woke up. Whether it was studying for the imperial examination or finding a proper marriage, he was inseparable from a good reputation.
"Men's family is old, and someone must teach people. This is not a very special thing." Jia Mu enlightened Wang, "If you think so, you will be able to live a good life. Xiren is as beautiful as she is. Instead of driving her out, it's better to ask her to stay by Baoyu's side. Children's family are greedy for freshness, and after the freshness is over, they will let go. I used to think that Xiren was an honest person, but now I look at him, and it's not a bad thing. It's up to you to see how you use it. With such a person by Baoyu, if other girls are not loyal and want to make progress, I'm afraid Xiren will not be happy. She stares at her.
, isn't this better than asking people to stare at Baoyu all day long? It's better for you to take control of him, but he's getting divorced from you. You don't know the evil you gave birth to, and you're always impatient to control him. He's in charge of him, now he's seeing him, I'm like a mouse and a cat. Do you want to have a little bit of Baoyu to see you? I think it's good to call him Xiren. If Xiren is very good, he will naturally not like to pay attention to Xiren. But if you have to pay attention to others, can Xiren not be able to watch? In this way, his energy doesn't have to be in school, what else can he do? This kind of thing will happen sooner or later. It's worth it."
Wang usually looked down on Mother Jia's teaching her son, but what she said today was appropriate. Xiren looked pretty and didn't want to lose her. She had to take care of Baoyu. But if she was in charge of Baoyu, Baoyu would also get tired of her. No matter what she did, this girl would not be able to become a climate. For a girl like this, it would be not new in three or two months. The son's body was not very hindered. When she thought about it, she lowered her head and said, "It's still the old lady who thought about it carefully. I just followed the old lady's instructions."
Yuanyang felt so cold that he heard this. This aunt is not easy to be a concubine, and she is just a maid. She keeps these in her heart. In this life, she will never be a concubine even if she beats her to death.
After Baoyu was dressed, he took Xiren to the main hall. Xiren knelt down, and Baoyu lowered his head and called "Old Ancestor".
"Get up." Wang looked at Xiren and called her up. "In the past, you were a good person, so I asked you to take care of Baoyu. I don't want Meng Lang like you. What kind of thing is this blue sky and white sun? If it is spread, what good reputation will it be."
Xiren kowtowed again, not daring to say a word. Baoyu's head lowered even lower.
"Now that I have served my master, please serve me well. Just the same, Baoyu is young and cannot be indulged. If there is anything wrong with it, I will only ask you." After Wang finished speaking, he glanced at Baoyu and cursed: "I really didn't practice in my previous life, and I gave birth to such a sinful devil."
"Okay!" Jia Mu smiled, "Don't scare him anymore. From me, this monthly silver must be brought up, and everyone knows it. Just give it to me in private." As she said that, she glanced at Yuanyang, which means that Yuanyang remembered it.
"Where can I ask for an old lady? It's the same from me." Wang said quickly.
Jia Mu shook her head: "Don't fight for it. My little things will be Baoyu's in the future. Just give them in advance."
Wang's heart suddenly felt much more comfortable. Just the old lady's private room was enough for her son to live a comfortable life.
But the Zijuan ran back to Jufangyuan as if she was flying. Daiyu had just finished washing and leaned against the smoke cage to dry her head. Seeing Zijuan's appearance, she felt anxious and asked, "What happened to Baoyu."
Zijuan's face turned red and she opened her mouth, and she couldn't say anything.
Her appearance made Daiyu feel anxious. When she was anxious, tears were about to fall: "What's wrong with Baoyu?"
Zijuan shook her head: "Baoyu is pretty good, nothing happened."
"What are you doing without me? You can hide it today, or you can hide it tomorrow." Lin Daiyu's tears fell down, "But he could not fall his jade again."
Zijuan Yue was worthless, so she leaned over and said, "My good girl, stop crying. That's not the case. Baoyu and Xiren were embarrassed to be entangled together and do that shameful thing."
She said quickly and urgently, and after that, she wanted to get into the crack in the ground.
Daiyu was stunned at first, not understanding what she meant. After reacting for a long time, she realized it. She blushed and spat at Zijuan, "All dirty and smelly words are on her lips, don't worry about dirtying my ears. Who is you? It's worthwhile to run back like this."
As he said that, he turned his face and entered the inner room.
Zhilan and Fanghua looked at each other, and a trace of contempt flashed in their eyes. The two moved the cage to the inner room and placed it lightly beside Daiyu's head, fumbling her head. If the head doesn't dry, they will have a headache again.
After putting it in, the two of them retreated with a look.
Zijuan followed in and saw Daiyu lying in with her head scattered and lying inward. She didn't know what the girl was thinking for a moment.
"Miss, I was wrong." Zijuan whispered: "Baoyu is not a good person."
Daiyu didn't say anything, and after a long time, he said, "I just thought what my sister said was an exaggeration, but she was actually right. Baoyu came back in the future and you would block all the people in the past... they had changed."
Zijuan's voice was a little choked: "Girl!"
"We have to be the same as before." Daiyu told Zijuan, "He is not me, you embarrassed Xiren, and others said again. Why bother?"
"Yes!" Zijuan responded softly.
There is nothing to say about the servants of the Jia family. Before the lights were turned on, the erotic story of Bao Erye’s house had already spread to Ningrong Street.
Lin Yuyang looked very ugly when he came back, and even scared Lin Yutong, "What's wrong? But it happened to something unpleasant. It was the Zhang family who treated you badly. Or what bad things were said by their servants."
"Whose servants can be like the Jia family, and they don't have a mouth shut." Lin Yuyang's face turned red and he whispered: "I am not at home on weekdays, so my sister should be far away from that Jia Baoyu."
"When did you see I've been close to him?" Lin Yutong handed the hot soup into her younger brother's hand, and said, "I heard what I've heard. What I fear most in this world is a human mouth. This is really true."
"Sister knows it too." Lin Yuyang was very surprised. "It's better for me to listen to these things less."
Lin Yutong felt a little funny, but she still nodded seriously and agreed. "I'm not a big deal, I'm afraid... I can't figure it out." She pointed to the direction of Daiyu's yard.
"Oh!" Lin Yuyang sighed and said, "She is still young and doesn't know anything. Take a look."
As he said that, he took out a letter from his arms, which was written by the old lady of the Zhang family. "Mrs. Zhang means that my sister is in the inner house of the Jia family and rashly goes to the Zhang family to visit. It is probably because it attracts others' attention. Instead, it adds a lot of trouble. It is better to wait for my father to come to Beijing and then go there."
Lin Yutong took the letter in her hand and looked carefully, nodding, "This is the old lady who loves us." Lin Yutong put the letter paper, "I have no good needlework. From now on, I often make some food, and you will take it over. It's our wish."
Lin Yuyang nodded, "Listen to my sister."
After the two talked for a while, Lin Yutong beat her brother and went to bed quickly. She asked Chun'er to see if everything was fine.
After waiting for a reply, I went to bed with peace of mind.
Everyone pretended not to know about Jia Baoyu and Xiren. Anyway, Lin Yutong didn't see anything. Even Lin Daiyu always looked like she was smiling.
Lin Yutong looked more and more impressed at Lin Daiyu.
On that day, Lin Yutong was replying to Lin Ruhai, when Chun'er came in to report: "There is an old man from the village in the gatehouse who came to visit relatives. He said that the relative was the aunt of the Wang family, but he was from Zhou Rui family. Somehow, he touched our back door. The gatehouse had invited people in and settled there temporarily. This is probably the old relative of the Wang family. They dared not be careless and quickly reported in to see how to arrange it."
Lin Yutong slapped her forehead and forgot about it. This person must be Liu Laolao.
"You go in person and invite people in." Before Lin Yutong returned to the Lin family, she lived in the countryside with her brother. The families around her were the same as Liu Laolao.
As an elderly person who is still working for life, Lin Yutong has a respect in his heart. Thinking of the things described in the original work that made fun of Liu Laolao, he didn't feel anything when he read the book. But now he has become a naked, naked, and naked life, Lin Yutong feels a little uncomfortable. Such an old man has never experienced anything in his life and has never seen anything in his life. Don't you know that his own is just a funny person?
After thinking about this, I felt something was wrong. As soon as Liu Laolao entered the Jia Mansion, it must have been before the New Year. The book said that it was winter and could not afford to buy winter items, so she remembered the Jia family. But now it is after the New Year.
My wings shouldn't be swelling to Liu Laolao.
Before she could figure it out, Chun'er brought Liu Laolao in. Liu Laolao was dragging a six or seven-year-old child in her hand, and this should be the board.
"Please to the girl." Liu Laolao said, and was about to kneel down.
Lin Yutong quickly supported the person with quick eyes and hands, "Don't be too polite, old man, sit and talk." She helped Liu Laolao sit on the edge of the kang, and asked Chun'er to bring snacks for Ban'er to eat. Xia'er had already brought the hot tea.
"The old man is afraid he will be thirsty all the way. I will quench his thirst first." Lin Yutong signaled Chun'er to take care of Ban'er and talked to Liu Laolao.
"Girl." Liu Laolao was so reserved that she couldn't stand it. "The old woman brought her grandson to find relatives. She didn't know why she broke in. This..."
"I'm just sitting there," Lin Yutong smiled and said, "You've been looking for the right one. This is the Jia family, you can't make any mistakes."
Xia'er smiled and said, "This is our eldest girl. Our master is an official in Yangzhou. This is our wife's mother's home. The back door was our own. We will beat someone and send grandma over there in a while."
Only then did Liu Laolao feel relieved that she had found the temple gate and then she had a safe meal.
Chun'er asked the kitchen to prepare food again, so that the two grandparents and grandchildren could eat enough. They rushed to the road before dawn, but they were not tired, thirsty and hungry.
Lin Yutong deliberately asked Liu Laolao’s origin again, and then said suddenly, “It turns out it’s Liu Laolao.”
"Looking at grandma like this, I'm afraid life will be difficult. If there is a way, I won't be able to go there." Lin Yutong asked Chun'er to take fifty taels of silver, "Grandma took it and packed it up."
Liu Laolao quickly refused: "How can this be born?" Without getting married or not, she could not take other people's money so unknown.
Lin Yutong smiled and said, "Grandma, seeing that I am glamorous now, I have suffered difficulties. You small families have difficulties with small families. Don't you know that this wealthy family has hardships that wealthy families cannot tell. I am not afraid of grandma's jokes. My brother and I grew up outside. It didn't take long to come back. At the most difficult time, it was also a mountain and wilderness to find wild vegetables to fill our stomachs. I know grandma's difficulties."
"My good!" Liu Laolao opened her mouth, "I don't know that there is still this story." This wealthy family's big wife and little wife don't suffer with it. She sighed, "Now the girl is overwhelmed."
"Grandma also has a day when she has ended her hardships." Lin Yutong stuffed the silver to her and said, "This is nothing to me now. For you, it is life-saving money. After a while, I took my grandma to meet those grandma and wives, and I will definitely not be able to leave. With this silver, my grandma will manage the family affairs well, buy land, and make a small purchase. With the investment, I will also let my grandson study. This wealthy family is not so easy to get into."
"I'll write down the words of the girl." Liu Laolao chanted the Buddha's name in her heart, "It can be considered that she has met a living Bodhisattva again."
"You can always meet a living Bodhisattva. It can be seen that grandma is a blessed person. She can always meet a noble person." Xia'er joked.
"That's true! Last winter, we saw that it was winter. The family had nothing to prepare. The charcoal fire, the clothes for the winter, and the vegetables stored in the winter were not purchased. When the weather was cold, the family's investment was broken. I was thinking, but if I couldn't, I gave up my old face and came to the mansion to beg. The ladies and grandmas pity the elderly and the poor, and it's not known that we can save us. I didn't want to leave, and the village in Jingbo, Shanghai, asked someone to do work. Men do heavy work, women and children have some fine work, at least they have enough food and food. They survived the winter. They were a little rich. I didn't expect that my granddaughter Qing'er had a sick a few days ago, and the money was too tight. So I had to come with shame."
Lin Yutong sighed, but she felt a secret in her heart. Isn’t this Hai Jingbo the Wen Tianfang who went to Beijing together? Could this change be caused by him?
This is another person who has never appeared in the Red Chamber. Lin Yutong has a little more care. It can affect the plot and characters, this person should be more important than imagined.
Lin Yutong didn't even think deeply, so she quickly regained her mind. She talked about the second wife Wang and Wang Xifeng in detail. "Now the housekeeper is also the daughter of the Wang family, and she is the niece of the second wife who grandma mentioned. Just hold her."
Liu Laolao remembered it in her heart. As soon as the two of them were about to get up, they heard Chun'er report that it was Ping'er who came.
"This coincidence, this girl Ping is the second-largest butler." She explained in a low voice, then smiled and said, "If you come, please come in."
Ping'er came in with a smile. She knew the rules of the Lin family. She never dared to act rashly when she got here. She dared to stand up after giving her tribute. However, she still looked surprised at the old and young people in the room.
"What wind has blown you." Lin Yutong smiled and said, "If you don't come, I'm going to find your grandma."
"I dare not work for the big girl. If you have anything, I will ask me the same. It is annoying for our grandma to hit me. My elder sister ate the cream sent by the big girl, and it was very useful. I asked the kitchen to make them all, and they were all useless. My elder sister didn't like it. My elder sister would just hit me and ask the big girl to watch and give it some."
"This is you here, you want to have everything. If she comes, there will be nothing else." Lin Yutong smiled and said, "You are also stupid, so let her call you and do your best to do your business."
Ping'er knew that this girl often joked with her grandmother, but she didn't know that she was a grandmother, but I was a girl."
"You have to say this to Brother Lian." Lin Yutong smiled, "I'm afraid he's hoping that you two can change."
"My girl, just keep amusing me." Ping'er blushed and she quickly begs for mercy.
Lin Yutong asked Chun'er to take a can and said, "This thing is complicated when it is made. If the heat is not controlled properly, it will lose its flavor. If someone rinses it with warm water, it will be fine for my sister to eat it with thick ones."
Ping'er took the jar one by one, handed the jar to the little girl beside her and hugged it, but asked Lin Yutong, "The big girl said she wanted to go find our grandma. But there is something wrong."
Only then did Lin Yutong tell the matter.
"It turns out to be a relative at home." Ping'er smiled just right and said to Liu Laolao: "You are really good at aisles and suddenly broke into the God of Wealth's door."
Liu Laolao took out the silver ingot in her arms and said, "The God of Wealth is not so effective, right? Look, I'm really rich when I crashed in."
Ping'er glanced at her eyes and figured it out. This was a silver ingot worth fifty taels of silver.
Lin Yutong wanted to laugh in her heart. This Liu Laolao is an old man and has her own wisdom. At this time, she put the money out, and the meaning is very obvious. People who have no relationship with her have paid fifty taels for the sake of the Wang family. You, a serious relative, can't be lower than this.
"Since I'm here for a while, I'm going to meet the Lord." Ping'er smiled, "Then grandma, let's go with me."
Lin Yutong smiled and said, "Grandma, go with her. Her master is a neat person, so don't be afraid. My son follows you. If her master doesn't care about you, just come back with Chun'er." He said to Ping'er again, "Grandma is old and so young. Now Zichun'er is getting along with the child. Tell her to lead him. Can anyone avoid collision?"
Ping'er agreed with a smile.
Lin Yutong sent Liu Laolao to the gate of the yard, and Liu Laolao kowtowed. Lin Yutong felt helplessly, "When I leave for a while, I won't send my grandma. Grandma knew about my back door. When I enter the city in the future, I will come."
Grandma Liu agreed and said she had met a noble person again.
To be continued...
