Chapter Nine: Loving Power and Power, Yuan Chun, Fighting for Leisure, and Generally Speaking, Li Kun won the hearts of the people
But said that on this day, Jia Zhu got married, only to see Rongguo Mansion from the gate, the instrument door, the hall, the warm pavilion, the inner hall, the inner three doors, the inner instrument door and the inner hanging door, until the main hall, all the way to the main gate wide open, on both sides of the steps under the color of vermilion big high candles, lit two golden dragons. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Jia Zhu was dressed in a red robe, riding a tall horse and leading the sedan chair into the main gate of Rongguo Mansion. The people of Rongguo Mansion also got new clothes and dressed very neatly, and the idlers on both sides of the street smacked their tongues and praised: "Really magnificent." ”
Entered the main courtyard, kicked the sedan chair twice, and the bride helped the bride get off the sedan chair over the brazier. The two of them bowed to each other, Jia Mu sat in the main hall, and the two worshiped heaven and earth for a while. He also invited Jia Zheng and his wife to come to the church and bowed four times. All kinds of processes follow the old calendar of Jiafu, and there is no need to elaborate on them one by one.
The rules of Jiafu, when all the masters are older, they will put two people to wait before they marry. There are also two people in Jia Zhu's room, both of whom were rewarded by Mrs. Wang, one is called Liuyun, and the other is called Falling Rain.
When the bride entered the door, the two maids of Liuyun and Falling Rain came to visit them with the errand men in Jia Zhu's room, and they all called them grandmothers. Li Kun has always been gentle and submissive, and he also asked the people around him to meet them without mentioning it.
The next day, the bride came to serve tea, and Jia's mother ordered all the masters in the house to point to Li Kun one by one, and the housekeeper came to meet her.
Mother Jia looked at Li Kun once, and saw that her face was ruddy, her eyebrows and eyes were smiling, she had a multi-treasure tassel butterfly hairpin between her temples, and she also had rouge on her lips, which looked very youthful and beautiful. It was difficult to coincide with the impression of the silent and dead Li Gongju. Sighing secretly, Mother Jia smiled at Mrs. Wang and said, "This child looks demure and gentle, strange and honest, worthy of being a child of a scholar." You, as a mother-in-law, have to hurt her more, otherwise I won't follow it when I hear it. ”
Mrs. Wang responded with a smile, took Li Kunjing's tea, and ordered Hongmei to take the red seal, and said a few words of encouragement.
Mother Jia pointed at Yuan Chun again and smiled: "Your eldest sister, although she is one or two years younger than you, I saw that she was the most cautious and cheerful in her daily life, so I asked your eldest aunt to take her to take care of the house." Good boy, you are new to the house, and if there is anything bad to tell your wife, it is the same as what she said. ”
Li Su was busy with Yuan Chun and called him his sister. After meeting for a while, Jia's mother pointed out a seat for Li Kun, and Li Kun sat next to Yuan Chun.
Yuan Chun sat down and said with a smile: "Grandmother, this is joking about me, I just responded to a name, where can I be a housekeeper?" It's that the housekeepers don't laugh at me for being frivolous, and I'm going to blush myself. I'm just worried that with Baoyu first, and now with such a decent and thoughtful sister-in-law, my grandmother won't love me. He took Li Kun's hand and smiled and said: "I often hear people say that the rules of my sister-in-law's family are the strictest, although I have learned to read the account books for a few years, I have not done many things at a young age, good sister-in-law, you have to teach me." ”
Yuan Chun is not a person who does not understand the rules, and he also has scheming methods, otherwise he would not have climbed from a female official to a high position as one of the four concubines in his previous life. It's just that he is still young at this time, he has never been wronged since he was a child, and he has never been in the harem of cannibalism. When Jia Mu heard this, she seemed to complain that Mrs. Xing did not let go of power, and couldn't help but glance at Yuan Chun.
For as long as he can remember, Yuan Chun has lived in Rongxi Hall. I also felt that Jia Lian was not angry, and the title would fall on the head of the second room sooner or later, and he actually put himself in the position of the eldest girl of Rongguo Mansion. Unexpectedly, on the eve of Jia Zhu's wedding, Jia's mother actually let the two rooms change their residences, and she felt that she was embarrassed, and she held back a resentment in her heart. Although Jia's mother is still in the two rooms and has not yet been separated, but now that the big house is in the main house, the big house is the person in charge of the Rongguo Mansion. I also listened to the upbringing grandmother vaguely mention the matter of raising the body, just because it was the big house that attacked the title, from the outside, it seemed that the concubine in Yingchun was even higher than his own identity! I was even more anxious and angry: the eldest girl of Rongguo Mansion and the eldest daughter of the Wupin Ministry of Industry are quite different in terms of identity, so when the draft is held, isn't anyone able to step on it?
At the same time, Jia's mother ordered Yuan Chun to help Mrs. Xing housekeeping, to say that Yuan Chun has learned the rules since he was a child, and he is respectful to Mrs. Xing on weekdays. It's just that Mrs. Wang often talks about her mother's Gaomen Mansion, Yuan Chun has always been proud of her grandfather's family after the prince of the county under the control of Du Taiwei, and there is an uncle who is the Jingying Festival, so she has a little bit of a look at Mrs. Xing's background in her heart. Now that Mrs. Xing took advantage of Mrs. Wang's birth of a son to take the power of the family, and because of the seniority, he pressed himself, where was Yuan Chun willing to be convinced?
Thinking about it like this, Yuan Chun looked at Mrs. Xing who was sitting on it, and felt uncomfortable, and said with a smile: "When the second brother of Lian marries, the eldest aunt will be able to relax after drinking the daughter-in-law's tea." ”
Although Jia Lian called Mrs. Xing's mother, but after all, she was not her own child, as soon as Yuan Chun's words came out, Mrs. Xing was stupid and a little unhappy, but it was not good to deal with the juniors. What's more, not having a child is already a piece of Mrs. Xing's heart disease, but now seeing that Mrs. Wang has added a white and chubby boy, and has drunk her daughter-in-law's tea, her envious eyes are about to drip blood, and there is still a bit of jealousy.
Mrs. Wang held the tea cup and said with a smile: "It turned out that I was not in good health, so I wanted to bring Baoyu, and because I had just moved and was messy, I couldn't share the worries of the old lady." Yuan Chun is still young in the end, and the burden of the house is on his sister-in-law, so he really can't help it. He turned his head to look at Li Kun again, and said with a smile: "Now that you are here, you will follow your aunt and help you." ”
Mrs. Xing had just tasted the sweetness of some housekeepers, but she was first squeezed by Yuan Chun as if she had unintentionally, and then saw that Mrs. Wang seemed to have the intention of separating power, and her face showed a little displeasure. Before I could tell the two sentences, I heard Jia's mother speak: "It's okay, let Zhu's daughter-in-law manage the family affairs with the eldest wife." Yuanchun will participate in the draft in three years, although our children are not as good as those raised by small families, but the royal rules are big, and it is still necessary to take women's virtue and women's merit as the key, and not because of the housekeeper to delay Yuanchun and Mama to learn the rules. ”
Jia Musi said that maybe Yuan Chun learned a little more rules, and he could know that he was afraid. If he can still ascend to a high position in this life, even if he can't help Jiafu, he won't be holding the family back. I remembered that Baoyu in the previous life was taught by Yuan Chun before he was three years old, and he was also Meng Kai by Yuan Chun. Although Yuan Chun has some knowledge, but after all, he is a deep girl, if he wants Baoyu to become a good man who stands up to the sky, he must not let him grow up in the hands of the women in the house. simply ordered Yuanchun to learn the rules, and didn't have to worry about other miscellaneous matters.
Yuan Chun heard that Mother Jia was going to take care of her own housekeeping rights, so she had to get up and respond, and said with a reluctant smile: "I complained to Mama Cai before, saying that while learning the rules, I also have to follow my aunt to manage the house, so I have to pick up this and lose that." It's still the old lady who feels sorry for me, and in that case, I'm going to take the opportunity to hide from me. ”
Mrs. Wang smiled: "You girl, let your housekeeper look up to you, and dare to complain behind your back." If not, with your ability to think about it, you can manage so many people in our family? It's all the old ladies who spoil you like this, neither big nor small. He pointed to Li Kun and said to Mrs. Xing: "She is a bride, and her face is tender, and she must not look forward or backward when she acts, and her sister-in-law teaches her more, don't let her subordinates bully her." ”
Li Kun got up and just excused himself, and Mother Jia said: "You kid is too honest, saying that he is a housekeeper, but in fact, he just gives the work to the housekeepers and ladies in the house to do." The eldest lady and your mother-in-law are both good housekeepers, if you don't understand, just ask them. Turning his head to Mrs. Xing, he smiled and said, "Don't blame the eldest lady, I only know that I feel sorry for the second wife, and I don't let her suffer." Lian'er has always honored you, and if she asks for a daughter-in-law in the future, she will definitely be reluctant to let you work hard as a mother. ”
Mrs. Xing responded with a smile, and said that Yingchun had learned to say a lot recently, and when she heard Jia Lian's endorsement a while ago, she also learned a few words. Because of the smile: "Lian'er has recently found a new errand, and she didn't go back to her yard after school, so she ran to the Spring Festival house and said that she wanted to teach her sister to read and write." ”
Mother Jia thought that Yingchun and Jia Lian had never been close in the previous life, and in the end they were lonely even when they died, except for the personal maid, there was no one to make the decision for her, so she couldn't help but say: "It's good to be in harmony between brothers and sisters, just don't delay Lian'er's study." I see that you have been acting very well recently, and you are very dedicated to the newly selected nurse for the Spring Festival, and you have taught Lian'er well. The lord deserves your affection very much. ”
Mrs. Xing covered her mouth and said: "Look at what the old lady said, even if the old man does not admit his feelings, I should also take these two children well." It's still the old lady who has a long-term vision, so that the uncle of the Zhang family often talks to Lian'er. Even the grandfather in the family school said that Lian'er is much better at reading and writing than before, and she has grown a lot. ”
Mrs. Wang was sitting on the side and listening, and listened to Mrs. Xing praise: "Speaking of which, it is still not as good as Brother Zhu'er, I heard Lian'er say that Uncle Zhang praised the articles written by Brother Zhu a few times, saying that he has a top talent, and in the end, his uncle and younger siblings teach him well." Although Baoyu is small, she looks like a smart child, whose child only recognizes people after three months? Wait until Zhu's daughter-in-law gives birth to a boy, ouch, the blessings of the younger siblings in the future are only great! ”
This was very much in Jia's mother's heart, and even Mrs. Wang was very happy when she heard it, put aside her past prejudices, and said with a smile: "With the good words of my sister-in-law, I also hope that my daughter-in-law can give me a grandson as soon as possible." ”
Li Kun's face turned red with shame, and the mothers gossiped for a while, and then dispersed. Since then, Jiafu has been in power by Mrs. Xing and Li Kun, Li Kun is a humble person, and when he meets the meaning of Mrs. Xing, he will see what Mrs. Xing means, and then add one or two. Mrs. Xing saw that she could read and write, and she was also relaxed in disciplining her subordinates, and she liked that she did not take power, but handed over some of the things in her hands to Li Kun to deal with.
It wasn't until Li Kun sat in the fetus that the power of the second room was in the hands of Yuan Chun again. Although Yuan Chun's ability is above Li Kun, he is not gentler and more generous than Li Kun, and he can be sympathetic to his subordinates, and he has fallen into a lot of complaints. Fortunately, Yuan Chun was in charge of the family for less than a year, and he was summoned to the palace by a piece of imperial list, which is a later story.
