Xian Sun of the Ning Mansion of the Red Chamber

Chapter 145

Daiyu came to Luoguxiang suddenly, without warning.

When Jia Ying returned home, Daiyu was pulling the primrose green velvet and whispering some boudoir talk, even Zijuan and Xueyan were sent outside.

"Where are you girls? When did you come here? Have you moved back?" Jia Ying glanced in the eyes, murmured, and asked Zijuan and the others knowingly.

"Back to the second master, our girl and elder sister Baochun Lvrong are in the back room. They have been here for a while, and the old lady sent someone to pick them up yesterday. The second master also mentioned this, only saying that our girl and the second master made an appointment. The one who has made an appointment, even though he lives in the West Mansion, is his natal family after all. When he comes back from there, the second master should at least send someone to take care of him, but there is no sign of him. How can we show any concern? The girl understands that the second master is busy with foreign affairs and doesn't care about these things, but we as maids still have to talk to the second master. Now it's not the same as in the past, and the girl is not alone in Beijing anymore, let the old lady just be her own grandson The daughter is taking care of her. Let's not mention what's going on in the Lin family, just say that the second master should also show a bit of demeanor. It doesn't make sense to just do as usual. What's the difference?"

Jia Ying didn't expect that she would be taught a lesson by a servant girl, but after listening to Zijuan's words, she didn't feel unhappy at all, on the contrary, she felt that it was very reasonable and felt ashamed.

Looking at Zijuan's eyes became more and more kind. The strange people said that Cao Gong is one of the best aesthetic masters in the world, and everything in the world must pay attention to the word "matching", ink bamboo and crimson grass, swaying alone in the wind.Xueyan, the personal servant girl brought from Yangzhou since she was a child, is no match for Zijuan, who is a monk.

"Second Master has written down what you said today. I know you are a good person. Sister Yu'er can have you by my side, but I am relieved. You have also seen that my yard is big and small, old and young. There are only a few of them, but I don't have so many maids, if there is anything I can't take care of from now on, I need you to pay more attention." Jia Ying looked at Zijuan and said softly.

"Second Lord, don't blame me for talking too much. I'm really interested in the girl." Seeing Jia Ying accepting advice with such an open mind, Zijuan also had a smile on her face. She was rewarded by the old lady to Daiyu. Naturally, they wanted to follow Daiyu, and it was a blessing for them to be maids to meet a good master.

"Which one is better?" Daiyu's voice sounded from the door of the back room.

Jia Ying searched for the sound, but saw that Daiyu came out first, followed by Baochun Lvrong, one on the left and one on the right.

He brought the spring green velvet from southern Xinjiang, so he naturally carried a bit of the heroic and free and easy style of a southern Xinjiang woman. Although he learned a lot of Beijing rules during his stay in Jia's mansion, since he moved back In Luoguxiang, the two girls returned to their previous natures.On weekdays, even Daiyu's sisters came, and they didn't see the two girls have more than half the consciousness of a maidservant, they just quarreled with everyone, following behind Daiyu in a well-behaved manner like today, This is the first time Jia Ying has seen it!
Especially the little girl Lurong, who can't be restrained by anyone except herself and Baochun, why is she so cute today?

"I don't know that you are still a greedy mouth. It's not enough to have Elder Sister Baochun Lvrong. You also need to attract Zijuan's attention. When did you become as temperamental as Lian's second brother?" Daiyu smiled and looked at Jia Ying. Said.

Zijuan's face turned red when she heard the words, she looked at Daiyu feigned anger and said: "The girl has wronged people for no reason. I just chatted with the second master. It's not like what you said."

Daiyu stepped forward and pulled Zijuan and said in a pretty voice: "I didn't mean you, what are you doing?"

Fu looked at Jia Ying who was at the side again and said: "The person I mentioned, it can be seen that his face has become thicker and thicker, and he doesn't feel like saying a few words to defend himself."

Jia Ying smiled awkwardly and said, "Sister Yu'er, please forgive me, and I will pay you for it."

"It's fine, why are you paying?" Daiyu said curiously, and couldn't help but look at the green velvet beside her.

But I heard Jia Ying say: "My sister went back home yesterday, I should have sent someone to pick her up, but I didn't pay attention to this matter, Zijuan was still fighting for you just now, scolding me."

"The original reason is this." Daiyu's expression suddenly changed, but there was still a hint of disappointment.

Jia Ying also noticed the change in Daiyu's complexion and the look she gave Lvrong. She thought it was about her and Lvrong's affairs, and Daiyu probably knew it all from Lvrong girl's mouth. Wisdom and mind are innate, and have nothing to do with age. Lvrong is a carefree girl on weekdays. When it comes to her mind, she can't compare to Daiyu. I'm afraid that if she hides it in her heart for a while, she will be fooled by Daiyu. clean.

To tell the truth, Jia Ying was still a little apprehensive for a while, not knowing what kind of attitude Daiyu had in her heart towards this matter, after all, sister Lin in Cao Gong's works often quarreled with Baoyu out of sadness.

Since the situation is unclear, we can only correct our attitude. The sky is big and the earth is big, and in his yard, sister Lin is the biggest one.

Men, you have to recognize your position in the family!

Seeing Jia Ying's serious face, Daiyu felt warm in her heart, looked at Jia Ying, and said softly, "I'm going to be cold somewhere, if I ask you to say that, it seems that I don't know what's wrong. Persuading students to express their ambitions, although I can't compare with that ancient virtuous woman, I also know how busy you are with foreign affairs and have high ambitions, but I have few people who can help you. I have experienced many dangers since I was a child, so I know that the outside world is more important than mine. Although I can't help you, I don't want to be your burden."

Jia Ying listened, smiled softly, and said gently: "My sister is wrong. To me, no matter what is going on outside, it is not as important as at home, and it is not as important as you. If a man abandons his family with his ambition, it will be a big deal. It's just excuses and irresponsibility. The sage has a saying: Only by cultivating one's body and keeping one's family in order can the world be pacified. If I can't even take care of my family well, how can I have the face to play up my ambition? I also know that your heart is towards me, but it's just wrong, Fortunately, Zicuckoo's words woke me up, and it's not too late to wake up now, so I should feel lucky."

For a moment, the two looked at each other, revealing their true feelings.

But Zicuckoo at the side laughed lightly and said: "It's just a marriage at the moment, and it's already like this. If it becomes a big gift in the future, won't it make us sour?"

The four girls all laughed when they heard the words, Daiyu's face turned red, and Jia Ying sighed inwardly for the intoxicating scenery.

But at this moment, Xi'er said outside the door: "Second Master, someone came from the West Mansion, saying that the old lady invited Miss Lin back."

"But what's the matter? Ask someone to come in." It's still early in the day, and it's not time for dinner, so why did you suddenly send someone to remind you?Jia Ying was curious and said.

But seeing Lin Zhixiao's family lift the curtain and come in, he first said hello to everyone, but then said: "Second master, it was the old lady who remembered that Miss Lin was not there while chatting with the girls, so she raised her mouth. Just say yes When the girl arrived at the second master's side, the old lady felt that she should not stay here for a long time, lest others gossip, so she asked me to pick her up."

When Jia Ying heard this, she curled her lips, but she didn't know what the old lady was thinking, why did she not trust him so much, could she still eat up Sister Lin?Even if he wanted to, he could only think about it, and he had to develop it.

With the old lady's words, Jia Ying didn't want to keep Daiyu any longer, so he could only order people to prepare a car and horses, and send Daiyu back to the West Mansion.

When I arrived at Rongqing Hall in Xifu, I found that Sister Feng and the others were all there. Jia Ying first greeted Jia's mother, and then greeted everyone again.

It's just that when it was Sister Feng's turn, she heard Sister Feng say in a strange voice: "Yo, it's our family's Master Qingtian who has returned, but I haven't seen you for a while, and I was thinking of looking for you yesterday. "

Jia Ying didn't know how he had offended Sister Feng, and the "two Ying brothers" had become "Master Qingtian", so he asked, "What does the second sister-in-law want me for?"

But I heard Sister Feng say: "Of course it's an errand sent by Master Qingtian. Why don't I ask you for a report?"

But I heard Jia Mu looking at Sister Feng from the side and asking: "There is someone else in Weidao who can assign you, tell me what's going on, and let you find him to report."

Sister Feng smiled slightly and said: "It's not a big deal, just a few days ago, there were a few unsightly servants who were lazy on duty, but Brother Ying saw them and reprimanded them, and then sent someone to me. to deal with."

Mother Jia understood it, and said, "That's okay, you have to let them know the rules!"

"Don't worry, old lady, don't worry about these trivial things outside, I've taken care of everything, now, it's up to Master Ying whether he's satisfied or not."

After hearing this, Jia Ying understood what Sister Feng was referring to, but she didn't want to upset the old lady, so she made another excuse, which he naturally wouldn't point out.

"Is Second Brother Lian at home?" Jia Ying asked Sister Feng.

When Sister Feng heard the words, she looked at Ping'er who was on the side, but she heard Ping'er reply: "When I came over, I happened to meet the second master returning home, so he should be here right now."

When Jia Ying heard the words, she wanted to turn around and look for Jia Lian. Seeing Jia Ying's serious face, Sister Feng thought that something happened again, so she asked, "But what happened again, I rarely see you go looking for him?"

Jia Ying stopped, thought for a while and said: "It's about the Xu family, Xu Fengnian has some friendship with me and Lian's second brother Su, and I'm going to talk to him about it."

"About the Xu family? But what happened? I remember that the second girl from the Xu family visited our house a few months ago. She is pretty and has a good temper." Sister Feng said after hearing the words.

"But that elder sister Xu's house you saw in the East Mansion?" Tanchun asked curiously.

"It's her family. His elder brother's case has come to fruition. Now we're waiting for news from the palace." Jia Ying nodded and said.

"I heard that people outside are talking about that Mr. Xu Ge colluded with the rebels, and that he wanted to ransack his home and kill him, but is it true?" Sister Feng asked again.

Jia Ying sneered and said: "People in the world are ignorant, how can they know the twists and turns. Xu Zhemu, as the second assistant of the court, is extremely valuable, so why bother to collude with a vassal king who is not a big man? Isn't he digging his own grave?"

"Why is that?" Tanchun asked out loud.

"The father is not strict, and the son is not filial. His son was so bold that he accepted bribes from Huguang officials behind his back. From that moment on, he was dragged into the water. It was impossible to think about it. Finally, he was sent by the king of Chu. Threatening, helping them to do things, now that the incident happened, it will implicate the family."

As Jia Ying spoke, she looked around the crowd for a week, and finally she listened to Sister Feng, and said: "The tall buildings are destroyed by ant nests, and the sage's words have four meanings: if you say prudence and independence, you will have a peaceful heart; if you say respect, you will live Strong, saying that seeking benevolence will make people happy, and saying that thinking about sincerity will make people admire." He also said, "Be careful in being afraid of small things." It's a pity that Xu Fengyan is a scholar, but he doesn't even understand this point. Relying on himself With the identity of the eldest son of the second assistant, he is good at maneuvering, taking bribes and collecting money, but he is too ambitious and incompetent to see the situation clearly, so it is not difficult to understand this ending."

"What will happen to the Xu family?"

Jia Ying shook her head and said, "It's impossible for Xu Fengyan to escape the crime. I'm afraid that the family will not be able to keep it."

"Is there no other way?" Tanchun asked again, and all the girls also looked over.

"Why do you care so much about her family? I remember you only met once." Jia Ying asked curiously.

But I heard Baochai say from the side: "Second Brother Ying doesn't know that we have many correspondences with that sister Xu on weekdays. We also admire her talent and learning."

"Furthermore, the same daughter's family has suffered such a catastrophe. It is inevitable that people will cry for sympathy and feel unbearable." Tan Chun also said.

"There are some things that cannot be done by manpower." Jia Ying shook his head and sighed softly, then he resigned from the crowd and went out to find Lian Er.

The reason why Jia Ying said so much in the hall just now was not because Jia Ying was idle and bored, but because he wanted everyone to take this as a warning.

The Xu family's family was destroyed by Xu Fengyan, but what about the Jia family?There is also that Xue Pan, and a group of in-laws and children who rely on Jia's family power.

Just came out of the crossing hall, and walked to the door of the hanging flower, but saw an old mother come in with the support of a daughter-in-law in her [-]s and [-]s. Seeing Jia Ying, the daughter-in-law stopped and said: Greetings from the Lord." But there was a faint resentment in her eyes.

Jia Ying was just an ordinary woman, and she didn't care too much about it, so she continued to walk outside.

"It turned out to be Erye Ying, but my old lady is blind and couldn't recognize it." The old mother also turned around when she heard the words, and asked Jia Ying, "Greetings to Erye!"

"You are?" Jia Ying asked suspiciously.

But I heard the woman on the side say: "Returning to the second master, this is my mother, and I rely on everyone."

Jia Ying was stunned, the original Dao was the number one nun in the red building, strangely, Dao dressed seven times more decently than others.

"You old Kang'an!"

Customs in Jia's Mansion: Family members who have served their parents in old age are more respectable than young masters.And now that he is in the mansion again, he can no longer put on the airs of an official, so when he sees Nanny Lai, Jia Ying also wants to say hello.

"I'm so worried about the second master, my wife's body is still strong. I didn't expect to meet the second master here today. It just so happens that the old woman should also pay the second master a crime." Lai Momo was about to bend over as she spoke. Bow down.

Jia Ying hastily gave him a hand, and Nahan asked, "It's all right, why don't you always pay me compensation?"

But I heard Nanny Lai say: "The unfilial man in my family, the old lady and the master of the house all trusted him and let him be in charge, but he didn't expect that the people below would cause such a big scandal, wouldn't he let the family down?" trust?"
