Chapter Eighty-Nine: Collapse
The Queen Mother said to the queen: "I'll just say that 'a woman is virtuous' bullshit, you quickly let someone send a letter back, and your father is no longer allowed to detain the juniors below!" ”
The queen smiled and came down. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The Empress Dowager asked, "I heard that the prefect of Suzhou has been to your house?" ”
Lin Daiyu was shocked, thinking of the 50,000 taels of silver sent by the Suzhou prefect to his wife that day, Jia Zheng did not take a penny, and said that it was donated by the Suzhou prefect.
I thought that Jia Zheng should have written it on the fold, but I don't know who turned it out and participated in the front of the palace.
In a hurry, she replied: "The prefect's wife came to my house that day to talk, and when she parted, she plucked a hairpin from her head and gave it to me, and looked at it for a while. Who knew that my girl was clumsy, and at once she threw the hairpin to the ground, broke it in two, and fell out of it a small paper scroll as thin as a fire chisel. When I picked it up, it turned out to be a silver ticket. ”
Lin Daiyu was nervous, but her speed of speech tried to keep it steady: "I immediately locked the girl in the box, and when my uncle came back, I would let someone send her over." ”
Saying that, she said with some embarrassment: "Uncle got this, so he asked the girl to come back and tell me that this is the money that the Suzhou prefect wants to donate to the academy, and he doesn't want to make it known to everyone, so he asked his wife to send it to me quietly." ”
"I thought I had a bribe!" Lin Daiyu finally added embarrassedly.
The queen mother and the queen are all human spirits, what else do you not understand when you hear this? It is obvious that the prefect of Suzhou wanted to bribe Jia Zheng through Lin Daiyu, but Jia Zheng rebelled. Those officials in the court are accustomed to chasing after the wind and playing with right and wrong, and this time is no exception.
The Queen Mother and the Queen smiled at each other, and asked Lin Daiyu: "Jiangzhu has also passed the year of the golden hairpin, has anyone come to propose marriage?" When Lin Tanhua was alive, did you get engaged? ”
Lin Daiyu was really embarrassed at this time, her face was as red as a red apple, and she tried to reply calmly: "When my father was alive, he once wrote a letter to entrust me to my uncle and grandfather. It is said that the marriage is also arranged by the grandmother and uncle. ”
The queen played a round and said: "Queen Mother, Jiangzhu is still a little girl, if you have the heart to show her others, you should also discuss it with Concubine Xian and Mrs. Jia." ”
The Queen Mother laughed and said, "I forgot, these little girls have been disciplined since childhood, and they are not as ashamed as we are to go straight." ”
The queen laughed with the queen mother for a few words, and then said to Daiyu: "Wen Zhuang is also about to come back from school, the last time you entered the palace, Wen Zhuang always mentioned you, I guess she will be happy to know that you are coming." ”
Lin Daiyu was interested and left with the palace maid. She didn't hear what was said next, and she didn't speculate.
Wen Zhuang still has a gentle and brutal temperament. When I saw Daiyu, my eyes lit up, and I pulled her sleeve and chattered endlessly.
One moment asked her what was delicious and fun in Suzhou, and then talked about her troubles in the palace. Lin Daiyu talked to her about Suzhou's clay man, leather tiger, jujube mud hemp cake, and sock bottom crisp, and comforted her a few words.
Wen Zhuang was really envious.
At the end of the summoning time, Lin Daiyu still went back with Jia's mother. Wen Zhuang was reluctant, and agreed that next time Jia's mother entered the palace, she would still bring Lin Daiyu with her.
For several days in a row, Daiyu stayed in the house or copied books and practiced calligraphy, or tended to flowers and plants, and her life was extremely peaceful.
In the afternoon of this day, a little girl came to probe her brain, and Zijuan saw that it was Feng'er. Feng'er said timidly, "Our grandmother wants to come and see Miss Lin." ”
After Wang Xifeng lost power, the little girl in her room also unconsciously learned to bow her head.
Lin Daiyu walked out of the flower room and said, "Your grandmother wants to come over, you can do it at any time." Feng'er got the word and went back.
Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian were arranged to live in the most remote place in the mansion, next to the next room. According to Jia Zheng's meaning, he asked Jia Lian to take a leave of absence from Wang Xifeng, and then go out again to find something to do after his injury was healed.
Jia Lian first refused, and then somehow moved.
Soon, Wang Xifeng came over. Her complexion was not as good as before, and she no longer had the same hot appearance as before, she said to Daiyu: "I want to go back to my mother's house, go back to Wang's house to see." ”
She didn't say that Jia Lian knew what she did, and shouted that Jia Mansion was all killed by her Wang Xifeng at this time.
Jia Lian was so angry that he stretched out his hand on the couch and hit her a few times, and he wanted to go down to the house to kill people with the sword on the wall, and he was clamoring to use the seal to write a letter of resignation.
Wang Xifeng thought of this, pursed his lips, and his eyes showed a determined look.
can't live in Jia's house anymore, she can always go back to Wang's house. Even though her parents left early, she had to live in her uncle's house, but she might not be able to live.
Wang Xifeng thought of the seventy thousand taels of silver tickets hidden under the box. If you have silver by your side, even if you are alone, what are you afraid of?
Lin Daiyu didn't make a suggestion, things have developed to this point, and it is no longer what she remembers, nor is it the situation written in the book.
As long as Wang Xifeng doesn't make some life lawsuits, she has money and can indeed live in the Wang family.
Jia Lian is not a good match, and Lin Daiyu is not the kind of person who is "kind" to persuade people to endure humiliation.
She could only greet Wang Xifeng for tea, talk to her for a while, and then send her out.
Wang Xifeng has made up her mind, she tore up the letter of resignation written by Jia Lian, and every time Jia Lian writes a book, Wang Xifeng snatches it up and tears it up, forcing him to write and leave.
Although Jia Lian has a temper, he has no backbone, and the injury he was scolded by Jia Yucane has not yet healed. The two were in a stalemate for a while, but Jia Lian couldn't stand it first to write and leave the book. Wang Xifeng moved out of the house with his belongings on the same day, and the dowry was sealed and placed in the Wang family's pawnshop.
Jia Lian was also very resolute, as soon as Wang Xifeng left, he immediately struggled to get in front of Jia's mother, saying that he wanted to raise Ping'er as his wife.
Mother Jia did not agree, and Mrs. Wang disagreed. Jia Lian made trouble in front of Mrs. Xing Yu.
Mrs. Xing didn't dare to care. Jia's mother expressed her attitude first, even if Jia Lian was Jia Yu's only son, and they relied on them for the rest of their lives, Mrs. Xing did not dare to confront Jia's mother.
Not to mention, whether Jia Lian can be their old support is still two words. He did a lot of things, so bastard.
Jia Lian made a fuss and touched his nose. Wang Xifeng has also returned to Wang's house, and he has to continue to recuperate in peace.
Wupin Tongzhi's false position is gone, and the steward no longer needs him to interfere, since Jia Zheng saw Jia Yun's talent in handling chores in Suzhou, he handed over many things to him, even buying a house and moving.
Jia Lian remembered that Jia Yun had begged to come to him to find something to do, and at that time he never imagined that one day he would be replaced by Jia Yun as the steward of the outer courtyard.
Laiwang beside him also left, saying that the old lady was old and sick, and their family wanted to redeem themselves and go back to their hometown to support the old lady to the end.
Jia Lian couldn't help but scold: What kind of pension is sent to the end, it's not that he has made enough money, and seeing that the Jia family has lost power, he and Wang Xifeng have lost power, so they want to leave the Jia family to find another high branch, or go back to their hometown to live the life of a rich man?
