The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 10 Misunderstanding
Summon Yang An and ask him to send reliable personnel to investigate Ma Daopo's details.He also talked about the characteristics of a monk and a monk, and asked someone to keep an eye out near Jia's house, and report it as soon as he found it.Yang An didn't ask the reason, and went to arrange it properly.

Just as I was thinking about what else I missed, Mei Jian's voice came from outside the door,

"My son, the princess is back, I want you to go."

"understood."

Mu Xu came to his mother's courtyard and heard the voice of his mother talking to Hongxiu inside.He didn't need anyone to tell him. He opened the door curtain and entered the room.

Princess Changning was leaning on Concubine Xiang's couch, a little girl was fanning beside her, chatting with the red sleeve beside her.

Seeing Mu Xu, Princess Changning waved at him, signaling him to come forward.

Hongxiu put a Mazha in front of the couch, and when Mu Xu sat down, he served sliced ​​iced watermelon. After Mu Xu ate two pieces, he felt that it was sweet and refreshing, and it was the best way to quench his thirst.

He wanted to eat again, but Princess Changning slapped his hand away from the plate, motioning for Hongxiu to take it down,

"How old are you, why are you still greedy like a child, what should you do if you eat too much cold food and have a stomachache?"

"Didn't I have a few glasses of wine at noon, and I'm thirsty right now."

"When you're thirsty, drink a cup of hot tea, just to sweat and sober up."

Princess Changning was not used to her son, so Mu Xu had no choice but to take the wet towel handed over by Hongxiu and wipe his hands.

"Mom is going to the palace today, is there anything new?"

"What's new in the palace, but what do you think when you go to Jia's house today? I heard your grandmother say that the future generations of their two houses are very unworthy."

Mu Xu immediately gave an overview of what he saw and heard in Rongguo Mansion today, and then detailed about Daiyu's situation with Princess Changning.

Princess Changning frowned when she heard this,
"Listen to you, the rules in their mansion are so loose now."

"How can I let my servant arrange my own relatives like this?"

Mu Xu had read the original book, so of course he knew the reason, but he couldn't explain it clearly.It was just said that the servants of Jia's mansion stepped on the high and praised the low, or that he was in the Jia's mansion, and he overheard it by accident.

I can only pretend to think about it for a long time before saying,

"When I was leaving today, I deliberately said that my mother would bring the younger sister of the Lin family to our house. Seeing that Jia Zheng's wife, Wang Shi, seemed to be in trouble, perhaps the reason was her."

Princess Changning nodded, "You're right when you say that. I remember that your Aunt Jia complained about her second sister-in-law in front of me."

"It is said that her second sister-in-law has shallow eyelids, does not know a single big character, and only has yellow and white eyes in her eyes. She took advantage of the housekeeper to embezzle the company's financial assets."

"Because of this matter, she still filed a serious complaint in front of Mrs. Rong Guo."

Mu Xu took her mother's words, "I think so, it must be that Mrs. Wang was severely punished by Shi Taijun back then."

"One is a daughter and the other is a daughter-in-law. You don't need to think about which one you want, not to mention that Mrs. Wang did something wrong."

"It seems that this Wang family is really narrow-minded, and must have held grudges for so many years, so why don't you take the anger out on the younger sister of the Lin family?"

Princess Changning said disdainfully, "It should be what you said, this Wang family is really as shallow-sighted as your Aunt Jia said."

"Don't say that it's just an old grudge, but now that my sister-in-law is gone, I'm still embarrassing a little girl." Then he asked,

"Could it be that Mr. Shi, letting his subordinates arrange his own granddaughter is not successful, doesn't it mean that she loves this granddaughter very much?"

Mu Xu thought for a while, "No matter how much Shi Taijun loves her, he can still pass Jia Baoyu. That Jia Wang's is Jia Baoyu's mother."

"The Jia Baoyu you're talking about is the kid who was born with the title of jade that made a lot of noise back then." Princess Changning asked curiously.

"It's him." Mu Xu nodded for confirmation.

Princess Changning dismissed it and said, "He was born with jade in his mouth. Our apprentice family has never been so lucky from the great ancestor to today. He was born as a child but he can make such a noise."

"In my opinion, it's nothing more than a way for the ignorant woman in the back house to fight for favor. Otherwise, how could he survive to this day?"

Mu Xu asked curiously, "I thought that Jia Baoyu spent all day hanging around in the inner house, and the Jia family deliberately reared him so that the royal family can rest assured."

"Since the Jia family left on behalf of Mr. Shan, if there were still smart people, they wouldn't have made such a fuss." Princess Changning laughed.
"It is said that when Jia Baoyu was born, the servants of the Jia family would tell everyone they met, for fear that others would not know about it. Even I heard about it in Liaodong."

Mu Xu thought for a while, and guessed, "Could it be that the Jia Wang family spread the news, and the Jia family had no choice but to deliberately make a fuss about the matter to cover people's eyes and ears."

Princess Changning nodded approvingly, "It's reasonable for my son to think so, I thought so too at the beginning."

"Later, I didn't think so anymore. Let me ask you, who lives in the main hall of Jia's family now?"

Mu Xu suddenly realized, "What mother said is that if Shi Taijun really has that kind of vision, he will not favor the youngest son. Even if Jia Amnesty is unscrupulous, he can't blindly favor the youngest son. After all, it is the beginning of chaos in a family without distinction between elder and younger."

Seeing how clever her son was, Princess Changning couldn't help showing a gratified smile.

Seeing that his mother was in a good mood, Mu Xu hurriedly said that he wanted to ask the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat Lin Daiyu.

Unexpectedly, Princess Changning looked at him with a half-smile, and Mu Xu didn't know what her mother was thinking.Quickly explain,
"Hey, mother, where do you think you are? I just feel sorry for the sister of the Lin family, so I felt pity for a while."

It's okay if he didn't explain, but this explanation seemed even more guilty. Princess Changning showed an expression that I was someone who came here, and sighed,
"My son was so big in a blink of an eye." After saying that, he patted his head and continued,
"Tomorrow, I'll send someone to take my post and invite Dr. Wu, the director of the Imperial Hospital, to give him a diagnosis and treatment for that Miss Lin. Don't worry, my son."

Why don't I worry, Mu Xu knows that this kind of thing can't be explained clearly, so let him tell his old mother that he doesn't like a little girl.But don't forget that this is ancient times, women can marry when they are fifteen years old, and there are many people in the countryside who get married when they are twelve or thirteen.

Seeing that he couldn't explain it clearly, Mu Xu couldn't say, it was because he saw the Red Mansion in his previous life and felt pity for what happened to Sister Lin.He simply didn't explain anymore, fearing that his mother would say something to make fun of him again, so he got up and left immediately.

Unexpectedly, his actions, in the eyes of Princess Changning, seemed to have been persecuted, and she was ashamed and ran away.

Thanks to the fact that his hearing is far superior to that of ordinary people, walking in the courtyard, he heard his mother say to Hongxiu,
"This kid is finally enlightened. In the past, I said that when other masters were his age, there were people in the room. I thought he was late."

"No, I have to meet the girl from the Lin family in person. If I have time, please come to our house some other day. I have to check for him..."

Mu Xu didn't bother to listen anymore, and left quickly.

In the next few days, Mu Xu visited several old friends.For those who didn't need to come to the door in person, they also sent servants to give gifts one by one.

After finishing the entertainment, I received guests from various families who returned gifts at home.

In a blink of an eye, it was late autumn, and the weather was getting cooler.

Mu Xu also doesn't like to go out, and stays at home all day, except to accompany her grandmother and mother.For the rest of the time, he has been practicing hard and exercising. This feeling that his body is gradually getting stronger makes him intoxicated.

In my spare time, I kept trying to restore the orb, but unfortunately there was no progress, and it was frustrating.Sometimes it even moved, the idea of ​​snatching Jia Baoyu's psychic jade.

Just think about that monk together, and the fairy girl Jinghuan in the original text.When it is not possible to finally determine whether there are immortal spells in this world, after all, he dare not act rashly.

Yang An also stared at Ma Daopo for a while.It was found that Ma Daopo did often go to the back houses of some dignitaries and dignitaries, and had contacts with many women in the back houses.

However, I didn't find anything beyond common sense. It was just some things about begging for children for others, or praying for some children.

Just like Jia Baoyu's recognition of Ma Daopo as a godmother, it is nothing more than enshrining the child's birth date in front of the god statue, adding sesame oil every day, and giving away some incense money during the festivals, in order to get the blessing of the gods. .

Mu Xu came from a later life, so naturally he didn't believe this. You must know that when he was young, Concubine Zhang wanted to protect her grandson from growing up safely.Almost all the famous Taoist Buddhist temples, large and small, in the city of Shenjing, lit their ever-burning lanterns for him.

This time when he returned to Beijing, Concubine Zhang took him to Chongning Temple outside the city to fulfill his vows a few days ago, and he added a whole thousand taels just for the sesame oil money, which made the monks very happy.

A few days ago, the Ma Daopo fought for the favor of a concubine in the family of a minister of punishment, and then gave the concubine a package of medicine.

Yang An asked someone to change the package of medicine, and asked someone to check it, and found that it turned out to be an aphrodisiac with fragrance added, which made him very disappointed.He could only tell Yang An to continue to keep an eye on Ma Daopo.

This morning, Mu Xu had just finished practicing the physical exercise, and after washing up, he just chatted with a few little girls when he had nothing to do.While talking and joking, someone came to report that Prince Zhongjing had sent someone to send a post asking him to go to Chunxiang Tower for a banquet at noon.

Thinking about it, there is nothing to do in the mansion, so it's good to go out to relax.So I told my grandmother and mother and promised them to eat less alcohol.Seeing that the time was almost up, he took two long followers and rode to Chunxiang Building.

　To be honest, I have arranged for gods and ghosts to appear in the first world before I have decided.Speaking of the four great classics, except for "Journey to the West", the other three have gods and strangers appearing in the scene, but they are all the most side-to-side descriptions, and there are no gods fighting skills.
