The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 99 Daily life in Fuchu ([-])

Of course, Mother Jia didn't know what Jia Lian was thinking. If she knew that Jia Lian could control their "destiny", she might not dare to act as an ancestor in front of Jia Lian.

So she continued to laugh and said: "The second happy event, your wife's sister, the aunt's family has come to Beijing, and now lives in our house. You don't have to go to see the aunt."

In fact, Jia Lian had already seen the beautiful figures of Baochai and Aunt Xue, but he kept talking to Jia Mu and only greeted her with his eyes.

At this time, I received Jiamu's order, and immediately went forward and said deeply, "I greet my aunt and my sister Baochai."

Baochai didn't say anything while standing there, but Aunt Xue didn't take it too seriously. When Jia Lian was saluting, she quickly stood up and said with a smile, "There's no need to be so polite..."

As she said that, Aunt Xue looked Jia Lian up and down, and said, "When I saw you last time in Nanjing, I thought you were a good kid. I didn't expect to see you for more than a year. Look, you have become so mighty." An extraordinary general, well, really good..."

Aunt Xue praised Jia Lian without hesitation. When Jia Mu heard this, she also asked, "Oh, so my aunt has seen him, why didn't I know?"

Mrs. Wang next to her smiled and said: "When Lian'er went back to Yangzhou, I heard that he also went back to Nanjing on the way, and visited all the important friends and relatives of our family. Maybe it was that time."

Jia Mu nodded suddenly: "I remember."

So Mother Jia turned her head and went over, laughing with Aunt Xue, saying that she is old and has a bad memory, please don't be offended by Aunt Xue and so on.

Here Jia Lian had just found a gap, walked a little to the side, Jia Baoyu couldn't help touching him, wandering around him, reaching out his hand from time to time to touch the biting cold but dazzling armor.

Just as Jia Lian said something to Yingchun and the others, when he saw Jia Baoyu's appearance, he smiled at him and said, "Why, do you like it? Next time you go out with me to send troops, I'll make you look better than this one, how about it?" "

The others laughed when they heard this, but Jia Baoyu withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

He could still hear that Jia Lian was making fun of him. It's true that he doesn't like reading, but it doesn't mean he just likes to fight and kill!On the contrary, what he hates the most are vulgar warriors who fight and kill. In comparison, they are not as good as those who read books.

At least, those guys who study are mostly clean. Look at the dusty look of Lian's second brother, who still smells of sweat, which makes a good second brother Lian go away!

If you want him to do the same, he would rather die.

Others only thought Jia Lian was joking, but Mrs. Wang paid attention to it.

According to Jia Zheng, Jia Lian was promoted very much by his brother Wang Ziteng's side.Even if Jia Lian is like this, if Baoyu is his own nephew, he has no reason not to cultivate it.

If Baoyu were placed next to his own uncle and became a general, on the one hand, Jia Lian would not be taken advantage of, and on the other hand, he would not be able to make great achievements in the future and obtain the title himself.At that time, the imperial mandate of this mere fourth rank on his body will also have to be raised by one.

Before finishing thinking about these benefits, Mrs. Wang immediately threw this idea behind her.

Going to the battlefield is going to kill people, she has already lost a son, this one, no matter what, there must be no loss!
Compared with Baoyu's life, the great benefits are insignificant.

Mrs. Wang was thinking about these things, when Zhou Rui's housekeeper suddenly came to her side and whispered, "Ma'am, Grandfather Dairu has come in person and wants to ask for some ginseng to save his grandson."

Mrs. Wang immediately frowned when she heard the words, and couldn't help asking: "Didn't you let Feng girl give it to him yesterday?"

Zhou Rui's family didn't know what to say for a while.

Yesterday, Jia Dairu sent someone to ask for ginseng, and Mrs. Wang asked Wang Xifeng to send it in two or two. Ma'am is on a errand.

If he dared to tease her Grandma Feng, it would be fine if he didn't kill him, and he would give him ginseng, which was a good idea.

Seeing the state of Zhou Rui's family, Mrs. Wang knew that Wang Xifeng must have disobeyed her, and her complexion was a bit unsightly.

When Jia Mu saw it, she asked who was here, and when she knew it was Jia Dairu, she asked to come in.

Jia Dairu is one of the few surviving members of Jia's mother's generation, and he is the younger brother of Duke Xianrong.

Although he was a poor mess, because the Jia family ruled the family with filial piety, no one in the whole family dared to insult him.

After a while, Jia Dairu, who was also trembling with gray temples, came in with a cane, and greeted Jia Mu respectfully: "Greetings to the old sister-in-law..."

In fact, Jia's mother is nearly ten years older than Jia Dairu. Seeing that this former uncle aged faster than her, she couldn't help but feel a little sad, because she asked: "What's the matter with you? Send a boy to tell me. Why did you come here in person at your age?"

When Jia Dairu heard this, he couldn't hold back some old tears and choked up, "Because my nephew and grandson are seriously ill, and the doctor said to eat 'Du Shen Tang', so I want to ask my sister-in-law to show mercy and save my nephew and grandson." Fate..."

As Jia Dairu said, he actually wanted to kneel down for Jia Mu with his crutches.

Jia's mother was startled, so she hurriedly asked her left and right to help her.

Jia's mother only vaguely heard that Jia Dairu's grandson was ill, but she didn't expect it to be so serious that Jia Dairu came to seek counseling in person regardless of face.

Although ginseng is precious, which family like them doesn't stock up before winter?

Therefore, he said: "So it's for this, and it's worth it for you. You just ask the kid to fetch it."

Hearing what Jia Mu said, Jia Dairu couldn't help but glanced at Mrs. Wang next to her, and sighed slightly.

Their family has all been cultivated with the bundles enshrined by the students in their family school, and they are usually well-off, but it is obviously impossible to eat the good ginseng that costs dozens or hundreds of taels.

Therefore, he could only come to Rongguo Mansion.

Who knew that Mrs. Wang promised well, but she only sent a package of unusable things in return, which was clearly humiliating him on purpose.

After all, he is the son of a generation of Rong Guogong, and he also wants face. If it's something else, it's fine, but for the sake of his grandson's life, he can only be cheeky and come to Jia Mu in person.I just hope that Jia Mu can help him for the sake of his uncle and sister-in-law.

Seeing Jia Dairu's face, Jia's mother probably guessed something, so her face was not very happy.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang had no choice but to stand up, and said: "Old lady, yesterday my daughter-in-law asked Feng girl to pack two taels of ginseng and send it to the grandfather. Maybe it's not enough? I'll go to the library to see it myself. If there is, I will weigh some more for my grandfather..."

Jia Dairu sighed and said: "It's not enough, my wife sent someone to send it, but it's just some root hair powder, it's not usable at all."

As soon as this remark came out, not to mention Jia Mu, even the others were shocked.

Jia Dairu is an elder after all, although ginseng is expensive, if you don't want to give it, just say you don't have it, it's a bit outrageous to give a pack of unusable root hair powder.

Mrs. Wang's complexion turned ugly for a moment. Could it be that Feng girl blamed herself for not helping her convey the message last time, so she deliberately wanted to ruin her reputation?
At this moment, Wang Xifeng had already come out from the back door.

She heard someone report that Jia Dairu had come, so she came over with a guilty conscience.

Seeing this scene, I immediately felt bad.But she still stepped forward cleverly, pretending to be nonchalant, and said to the dark-faced Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang: "My grandfather is to blame for this matter. Originally, I got my wife's order, and I will do it. It's just a gift from Zhuangzi this year." There were not many ginseng that came, so I picked out all the ginseng and prepared the medicine for the old lady, and prepared the rest for my uncle and wife and the admiral's wife. I couldn't find any good ones, so I sent them to I went to look in the old warehouse to see if there were any more. If there were not many, I was going to go to the East Mansion to ask Grandma Zhen for some and put them all together to send to my grandfather.

But I was busy, so I forgot about it later. I thought they were lazy and afraid of trouble, so I randomly found a few times to fool them.

It's time for these girls and women to teach them a lesson, even dare to perfunctory about the grandfather's affairs..."

Although Wang Xifeng's words were subtle and reasonable, they couldn't fool Jiamu and Mrs. Wang.

Especially Jia's mother, she was really angry, knowing that Wang Xifeng saw Jia Dairu's family was down and out, so she didn't take it seriously, and deliberately condoned and humiliated her, so much so that Jia Dairu came to beg her in person when she was old.

This time, she lost her face.

Originally, the brother's poor life was the fault of the eldest brother and sister-in-law who inherited the family business. If this incident gets out today, the good reputation she has accumulated for most of her life will be damaged!
Fortunately, Jia Dairu only asked for spiritual ginseng to save his life, and did not intend to completely offend Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, so he did not refute Wang Xifeng's words.It's just inferior, it's clearly a dry bag of powder, the kind that even dogs won't eat!

Otherwise, Mother Jia would not be able to step down.

Even so, Mother Jia kept a gloomy face and kept silent, letting Mrs. Wang know her emotions.

Mrs. Wang is fine, and someone is taking the blame. Wang Xifeng is on pins and needles. If Mother Jia doesn't let her go, she may not be able to pass this test today.

To humiliate the elders is still two generations older, but it has a good reputation!

I was anxious and didn't dare to show it on my face, and I didn't dare to distinguish any more. My eyes rolled rapidly, looking for a solution.

Suddenly seeing Jia Lian sitting in the corner with all his leisure, he immediately became angry.

Stinky man, won't you come out and help me out at this time?
　It's really strange to write about daily life, why is it almost [-] words without writing a few words?
　　I didn't say anything, stay up late at night and add more updates, everyone, don't stay up late with me, wake up tomorrow morning and watch it again.
