The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 330 Mrs. Wang's Cares
Daiyu's house originally belonged to Rongqing Hall, so the news here was quickly spread to the main hall by the women.

So, the sisters took the lead, Mrs. Wang and the maidservants, and then supported Jia Mu to come.

As soon as they entered the door, all the maids were silent, while Jia Baoyu and Daiyu looked dazed with tears still on their faces.

A pear blossom with rain, eyes red, and a squirrel in his arms that didn't move.At first glance, it should be dead.

Jia's mother heard the rumor that "Second Master Bao was so angry that he even dropped the jade", so after taking a glance, she ignored everything and looked at Jia Baoyu's chest first.

Sure enough, there was only the collar, not the jade pendant.

Mother Jia ran over in shock, grabbed Jia Baoyu and asked, "Where's Yu?"

Between actions and words, the importance of that piece of jade is vividly expressed.

Zijuan hurried forward, picked her up, and presented the jade wrapped in silk handkerchief to Jia Mu.

Just now Jia Baoyu looked angry, she didn't dare to step forward to offend, so she could only keep it safe first.

Mother Jia inspected Baoyu first, and seeing that there was nothing serious, she breathed a sigh of relief, then raised her head and looked at the two sad grandsons and granddaughters.

He wanted to blame him, but he couldn't bear to see both of them so sad.

Thinking that they are always making trouble like this, and they can't appreciate the good intentions of her old ancestor at all, she can't help but also said sadly: "You two enemies, you really won't be able to make me feel at ease for a while.

When I go, I'm afraid it will suit your wishes. "

Mrs. Wang frowned as soon as she entered the door.

Especially when he saw that the precious jade worn on Jia Baoyu's chest was gone, his expression turned cold.

In front of Jia's mother, it's not easy to show much, but after Jia's mother hangs up Baoyu again, she grabs Jia Baoyu's arm and pulls him to her side, away from Daiyu.

Daiyu is so sensitive, although Mrs. Wang didn't say a word, and she didn't raise her eyebrows at her, but she was the first to notice Mrs. Wang's dissatisfaction with her.

I feel very sad.My aunt didn't ask indiscriminately, she just blamed herself...

Under the comfort of others, Jia Mu finally calmed down and questioned the whole story.

Several maidservants serving in Daiyu's room knelt down hurriedly, among them Zijuan didn't say much in order to make the big thing small, but said that it was a quarrel between two brothers and sisters, and Jia Baoyu accidentally threw Daiyu's squirrel to death. That's why.

Although Jia Baoyu knew that what Zicuckoo said was partial to Daiyu.

Now that he had calmed down, he also knew that he had offended Daiyu terribly today.Especially Anu, it seems that it was because of him that he fell to his death. For this account, I am afraid that sister Lin will be counted on him...

I felt ashamed, so I didn't argue.

Jia Mu then said, "What is my way of thinking? It turns out that it's just a trivial matter, and it's worth your fuss?"

Jia's mother wanted to play [-] big boards for each person first, but she glanced at Daiyu and saw that she was thin and tearing, and finally her heart softened.

Turning his head to Jia Baoyu, he said, "Baoyu, you are too. You and your sister are arguing, and there is no need to smash that lifeblood, which is your lifeblood!
If it is smashed, how can you tell us to live?
From now on, don't do this again. "

Jia's mother always treated Jia Baoyu like this, and her heart softened after she said a few words.Seeing Jia Baoyu bowed his head knowing his mistake, she lost all anger, and couldn't help but pull Jia Baoyu into her arms, fondling him to show her pampering.

In this way, other people who are frightened can feel a little relieved.

Mother Jia told Zijuan and others to take care of them and take care of them so that such a situation should not happen again, and then she got up and left.

Jia Baoyu still wanted to stay and say something, but unfortunately, Mrs. Wang forcibly pulled her away from here.

Most people who are ignorant of the conflicts between children don't take it too seriously.

Only Mrs. Wang has a heart.

Jia Baoyu is her only son, and the piece of jade on his body represents Jia Baoyu's life, death and wealth.

Is the top priority.

However, since Daiyu came, how many times has his precious son smashed the jade?
It can be seen from this that Daiyu is not only not a good match for her son, but also overcomes him.

If Baoyu were really allowed to marry her by the old lady's will, how many embarrassing things would happen in the future!
Thinking of this, she summoned her confidant, Zhou Rui's family, and ordered: "Go out later, ask some boys to go to the West Market to see if there are any stone mice sellers. Buy one back."

Zhou Rui's family understands that he will go out after taking orders.

Mrs. Wang kept her, first asked Jiamu about the situation there, and then Fang said: "What do you think about what happened just now?"

"It's just two children who are at odds. Since Miss Lin came here for the past two years, because the two children are close, it's not just once or twice, and it's nothing.

It's the old lady who just sighed in Rongqing hall. "

Zhou Rui's family smiled back.His face seemed casual, but he actually carefully observed Mrs. Wang's complexion.

Mrs. Wang frowned slightly, and said noncommittally: "In your opinion, does the old lady really intend to betroth Lin girl to Baoyu in the future?"

"This……"

Zhou Rui's family hesitated for a moment, and replied: "I didn't see this, the old lady never said that.

But Ms. Lin is the granddaughter of the old lady. Apart from Second Master Bao, it is Ms. Lin who the old lady loves the most.

Besides, Second Master Bao and Miss Lin are about the same age, and their appearance is also a good match. If the old lady really has such thoughts, it is really normal. "

What Zhou Rui's family said was equivalent to admitting it, and she also felt that Mother Jia had this intention.

Mrs. Wang asked Zhou Rui's family to sit down, and after careful consideration, she said: "As far as my heart is concerned, since the old lady has this idea, I agree.

After all, Miss Lin was sick and weak, and she lost her mother at a young age, so it was pitiful.

Promise her to Baoyu, so we can always take care of her.

It's just that you have seen the situation just now. I'm afraid that she and Baoyu have really different temperaments.If they are forced to be together, I am afraid that the future of the two children will be ruined. "

Zhou Rui's family listened and nodded, she understood what Mrs. Wang meant.

If she were Mrs. Wang, she would not want her son to marry a sick woman.

Among other things, just like Daiyu, it is obvious that it will not be easy to have children in the future.

Putting this aside, Daiyu has a bad temper.

Talking is always merciless, with sharp teeth...

"Recently, I observed coldly, but I fell in love with a child, whom I thought was a perfect match for Baoyu.

It's just because I'm afraid of what the old lady thinks, so I haven't dared to say it..."

"Who is the lady in love with?"

"What do you think of Bao girl in my aunt's house?"

Zhou Rui's family immediately laughed after hearing this.

"My wife really has a good eye. Let's not talk about the relationship between Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Xue. If the two families get married, they will be relatives.

As far as Miss Bao's appearance and character are concerned, there is nothing to say.

Since the concubine's family came to Beijing, no one in the house has praised her. Miss Bao is generous and has a good personality. She is worthy of being a lady.

If the wife asks Miss Bao to be her daughter-in-law, she will be considered lucky. "

Compared with the scarlet belly when talking about Daiyu, when Zhou Rui's family mentioned Baochai, they were sincere and eloquent!

In fact, it's not her fault.

As a slave, while serving the master, he will naturally make judgments on the character of the master.

Since the Xue family came to Jia's mansion, they almost took care of some decent servants in Jia's mansion.

As the saying goes, cannibals have soft mouths and short hands to grab people. This alone is enough for them to speak well for the Xue family.

Besides, in terms of how they behave in the world, they really admire Baochai more.

In this regard, Daiyu gave them a far worse feeling.

Not to mention, Aunt Xue is also Mrs. Wang's biological sister.Obviously, what Mrs. Wang said before was just a scene, and Baochai was the only one she really liked.

Therefore, Zhou Rui's family didn't know what to say.

Hearing that Zhou Rui's family thought so too, Mrs. Wang finally showed a little smile.

"I will only tell you about this matter, so don't tell others.

Regarding Baoyu's marriage, in the end it still means to take care of the old lady.If the old man doesn't let go, I can't go against her old man's wishes.

Just because you are here, you might as well give me some advice. "

Zhou Rui's family had an insight into Mrs. Wang's meaning. As a confidant, she naturally knew how to think.

I thought that Mother Jia loved Jia Baoyu the most. No matter how much she loved her granddaughter, she couldn't compare to her own grandson.

Is there anyone who is not serious about Bao Erye's lifelong event?

Therefore, even if the old lady wanted to make Second Master Bao and Miss Lin kiss each other, she might not have no hesitation in her heart!
If not, why didn't the old lady explain this matter all the time, and make a decision on the marriage between Master Bao and Miss Lin earlier, so as not to make Mrs. Wang have other thoughts, right?
It can be seen that the old lady must also know that Miss Lin's personality is not very strong, and her health is not good...

Therefore, Zhou Rui's family explained these views to Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang agreed with her heart, and her heart became more determined.

"Madam, in fact, there is no need to worry about getting this done.

Maybe in a few years, this matter will naturally be simple. "

"Oh, what do you say?"

The face of Zhou Rui's family was wise, and they said almost ostentatiously: "Miss, think about it, Miss Lin is arrogant by nature, and her health is not good, why does the old lady still want to betroth her to Second Master Bao?
Could it be that her old man doesn't feel sorry for Second Master Bao, and doesn't think about the future and future of Second Master Bao?
For one thing, because she is a granddaughter, the old lady misses her daughter and loves her house, so she loves Miss Lin more.

But the most important thing is another point..."

Mrs. Wang frowned, as if she had thought of something.

"The most important thing is that Mrs. Lin is the second rank of the dynasty, the palm print of the dignified Lantai Temple.

With this kind of background, if you marry Miss Lin, wouldn't it be of great benefit to have Mrs. Lin to support and take care of you when Second Master Bao enters the court as an official? "

Mrs. Wang's heart sank. In fact, she didn't know this.If it weren't for this, she would not have tolerated it that way before, watching Mother Jia helplessly and cultivating the relationship between a pair of young children.

"Even so, it is not necessary for Baoyu to take this light.

Baoyu's uncle is now under the control of nine provinces, and in terms of official rank, he is still higher than Lin Yatou and her father.

What's more, this time he returned from making meritorious service at the border, and he was extremely famous.

In the future, Baoyu will naturally have his uncle's support and care.

Besides, it is rumored that Lin Yatou's father is just like Lin Yatou, and she is also in poor health. I don't know how long she can last...

The Lin family is no better than our Jia family. The entire Lin family is supported by Miss Lin and her father alone.

If anything happens to him, the whole family will be ruined.

so……"

Therefore, in fact, it is not as safe as the Xue family.

At least the Xue family's business spread across the north and south, and the millions of family assets are real.

This is why she dared to make up her mind today.Because according to her estimate, Lin Ruhai might not last long!

Zhou Rui's family said with a smile: "Isn't it exactly what the wife said?

But no matter what, Master Lin is still a close minister of the emperor. As long as Master Lin is around, the old lady has a legitimate reason to promise Miss Lin to Second Master Bao.

In my opinion.

Anyway, Second Master Bao is still young, so it's better for his wife to wait and watch for a few years.

If after a few years, Mrs. Lin's health really fails, or he retires to his hometown, then the Lin family will be completely wiped out.

At that time, if there is no need for my wife to mention it, the old lady herself will seriously consider this marriage again. "

The meaning of Zhou Rui's family is very simple. Daiyu's personality and health are not good now. When Jia Baoyu's status is not worthy of her in the future, even if Jia's mother prefers her, she will make other plans for her grandson.

Mrs. Wang listened and nodded silently.

That's the truth.

Taking a ten thousand step back, if Lin Ruhai survived a few years later, he would even go one step further, such as entering the cabinet.

Well, for this sake, it's not impossible to agree to this marriage...

Sure enough, this matter should not be rushed.

Although Bao girl is good, but Xue's family is too down-to-earth, and she will not be able to help Baoyu in the court in the future.

If Baoyu does not succeed in the future, then their second wife will always be riding on the head of Jia Lian, and they will never turn over!
The strong pressure from Jia Lian forced Mrs. Wang to think more, not daring to waste a single chip...

……

Jia Lian didn't know anything about the Rongguo Mansion, he had been busy all morning in Bingma Division.

There are so many princes and nobles in the capital, but there are not many who have real power in the capital.

It is a typical situation where there are many monks and few meat.

Although the Bingma Division is not a decent job, it is an independent yamen in the capital.

Even Jia Lian didn't want to give up easily when he couldn't find a better place.

Therefore, as long as the emperor didn't give him a better place to go, he didn't want Bingmasi to escape his control.

He told his subordinates that he had taken over the position of the sending envoy, and moved out some backlogs that required him, the commander, to act on his behalf.

According to Jia Lian's estimate, if the Ministry of War still does not send someone to take over the job in the next month, it means that the emperor simply asked him to take a part-time job, and after he came back, let him do his old job.

Naturally, he couldn't let other people in the court catch his fault and take the opportunity to take his position.

It was not until noon that he returned to Ningrong Street.

Thinking of You's explanation this morning, Jia Lian stepped into the Ningguo Mansion, and under the guidance of the women, he found Mrs. You.

"For the filial piety cloth used for the poles in the previous month, I invited the pole man Tsing Yi to provide 1000 taels of silver.

Five hundred was paid in advance, and there are still 500 taels left. Two businessmen sent people to collect it this morning.

Sister-in-law You said that it just so happened that the Zhen family in Jiangnan sent someone to deliver 500 taels of sacrificial silver from Beijing, and handed it over to the old lady for the time being.

Sister-in-law You asked me to take it with me when I left today, that's why I came to bother the old lady. "

Mrs. You has been in Ningguo Mansion for a while, so of course she knows Jia Lian.

Knowing that Jia Lian is the most powerful man in the Jia family, even more powerful than the former uncle Jia Zhen, how dare he neglect him.

While smiling and agreeing to get the silver, he called out the daughters who were female celebrities inside, poured tea for Jia Lian, and then went to get the silver.
