Chapter 15.27 Antecedents
After Doctor Zhang, who came to the Grand View Garden again, learned the whole story, he was also very angry in his heart. However, his cultivation is good, so that he will not worry about an inner house woman like Mrs. Wang. After this incident, Imperial Physician Zhang also knew Mrs. Wang's temper, so the prescription prescribed this time was much more refined than the previous one, or a lot of tossing.
In the recipe prescribed by Imperial Physician Zhang last time, it was ordinary white rice used to boil porridge, but this time, Imperial Physician Zhang actually asked for red rice, and it was the top rouge rice among red rice. The eggs that need to be used are obviously ordinary eggs or Yunying eggs, but Imperial Doctor Zhang has to ask for quail eggs, and he also asks for Yunying quail eggs, or Yunying pigeon eggs. So much so that Imperial Doctor Zhang wrote a lot.
In short, two words, toss.
On the contrary, Mrs. Wang, if she has obtained a treasure for this new prescription, is eager to confess to Imperial Doctor Zhang.
Even Jia Mu was relieved when she saw such a recipe.
At the same time, after Jia Baoyu was poured rice soup and thin porridge for two days, Jia Jiu also began to brush him with spiritual healing techniques once a day. After five days like this, Jia Baoyu really woke up, although she only called the old lady and fell asleep again, but it was undoubtedly great news for Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang, and even Lin Daiyu couldn't help but recite a sentence of Amitabha.
In front of Jia's mother, Shi Xiangyun has always been in front of the sisters, even Jia Jiu, when he was in front of Jia's mother, he was not as good as him. Now, coldly, Lin Daiyu is filial piety, and Jia's mother will take him with her. Even now, he also hugged Lin Daiyu, but let Shi Xiangyun retreat.
How did Shi Xiangyun not be in a hurry?
Shi Xiangyun is very clear. In the background of Jia's family, she is Jia's mother. If Jia's mother's attention was attracted by Lin Daiyu, then she would inevitably get less attention. This is very unfavorable for himself and Xue Baochai to compete for Jia Baoyu.
What's more, Lin Daiyu is a few months older than him, and she is also a strong candidate for Bao Er|Milk|Milk|.
Shi Xiangyun couldn't help but be anxious.
Shi Xiangyun and Xue Baochai have been fighting for several years, and they have already formed a tacit understanding, and when they saw Xue Baochai smiling and silent, he immediately said: "Sister Bao." What are you laughing at? ”
In the past year, Mrs. Jia Zhengwang's money has been paid by the Xue family. The silver money in this Grand View Garden is also from the Xue family, and even the things in the Grand View Garden are mostly managed by Xue Baochai. This kind of day when even Mrs. Wang had to bow her head to him made Xue Baochai no longer cautious in the past. When he opened his mouth, he said: "I laugh like a Buddha who is busier than people." and to transform sentient beings; and bless others with sickness. Tell him to be quick; and manage the marriage of his family, that it may be fulfilled. You say, are you busy? Is it funny? ”
When Jia Jiu heard this, he immediately turned his head and said, "Sister Bao's mouth, it's getting more and more powerful." Don't say that Sister Lin recites Buddha, I miss Buddha too. Look at this house, the old lady hasn't had a good rest for a few days for Baoyu? So is my aunt. It's only been a few days, and my hair is all white. If Baoyu doesn't see any better. I'm afraid that my aunt won't be able to support it, let alone the old lady. ”
Mother Jia had already hugged Lin Daiyu in her arms and said, "That's not the case." I have a lot of children and grandchildren at this age, but Baoyu is the most reassuring to me. He was born well, but he was born partially. If he has something to do, wouldn't it be digging out my heart?! ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help wiping his tears, and everyone hurriedly comforted him.
Only cherish the spring, and suddenly said: "Mortals talk and do things, and they always like to treat others with themselves." Sister Bao is the oldest again, isn't Sister Bao thinking about marriage herself? ”
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the room, and suddenly I didn't know who laughed first, and then, everyone laughed together, and even Jia's mother couldn't stop laughing.
"The mouth of the four girls is neither loved nor hated."
As soon as Jia Jiu spoke, Xue Baochai knew that he had said the wrong thing.
The Jia family is a family with no rules. It's a fact. Many times, Xue Baochai also looked down on the Jia family, because he felt that no matter how bad their Xue family was, they had more rules than the Jia family in some things.
With this mentality, Xue Baochai always holds a high shelf in the Grand View Garden, posing as "you should listen to me". Several girls in Daguan Garden now know that their monthly money and allowances are provided by the Xue family, and the so-called short hands and soft mouths are soft, so in front of Xue Baochai, there is always a little less confidence.
This reality also made Xue Baochai's mentality change, making him more and more arrogant. Just like now, although the words were said tactfully, the point was very clear, Xue Baochai said this on purpose, saying that Lin Daiyu wanted to get married.
In this day and age, this is a very vicious statement. Because in this world, girls from good families are chaste and quiet, and those who want to marry and want men are not serious people. If you want to put it more viciously, only women in that kind of place think about men every day, because when men come, they have food.
This kind of words, no matter how familiar they are, are not something that can be exported.
Lin Daiyu has always been filial piety before, and she hardly goes out of the door of Xiangxue Villa, let alone takes a step out of the back garden. Whenever Jia Jiu mentions Lin Daiyu, it is mostly Sister Lin who wants to be filial and inconvenient to disturb. The sisters knew the elegance when they heard the strings, and they didn't go to Xiangxue Villa, so they were naturally not familiar with Lin Daiyu. Jia Jiu is strict, and Xue Baochai has never been to Xiangxue Villa, let alone met Lin Daiyu.
Xue Baochai's words are very rude to familiar people, not to mention Lin Daiyu, who has only met a few times?
Therefore, not only Jia Jiu was angry, but even Xichun was also angry. On the contrary, it was Xue Baochai, he thought that Jia Jiu had a good impression of himself, but he didn't expect Jia Jiu to refute his words at the first time, and he was stunned for a while.
It's Mrs. Wang, although she is secretly a little dirty with Xue Baochai, but on the surface, Xue Baochai is his niece and daughter. Xue Baochai was counted down like this, and he didn't have the face to say: "Speaking of which, Qian Yatou and Qing Yatou are not too young, and this election has been postponed for another year, and their age is actually exceeded." I don't know if the big brother has anything to say? ”
Jia Jiu looked at Jia Mu. Seeing that Jia's mother didn't speak, Fang Cai said, "Let my aunt worry." Who made this year a national funeral? Even if my father has this meaning, I will have to wait until next year. What's more. You have to marry your sister-in-law into the door first, so that you can handle the two of them. However, whether it is a Qian girl or a Qing girl, their marriage is easier than that of their brother. Listening to the meaning of his father's words, it seems that someone has already come over with the meaning, and my father is also very satisfied, so he is waiting for the day when it will come to fruition. ”
Ask again. Jia Jiu shook his head, indicating that Jia Yu did not tell him in detail.
Even Mother Jia hugged Lin Daiyu and said: "The second girl is one year younger than the Qian girl Qing girl, and it is a girl's family." It's only natural that the boss doesn't tell him. If you want me to say, Qian Yatou and Qing Yatou both have grades, and they have Huangzhuang Yulu, how bad can their marriage be? than them. I'm more worried about Lian'er. His marriage has been delayed for a long time, and he doesn't know what the boss is thinking about. ”
Jia Jiu hurriedly said: "Old lady, isn't this a national funeral?" Some things can only be pushed back. Besides, who made my sister-in-law a clan wife? This is not to be sloppy. ”
When Jia Mu heard this, she could only nod and said, "That's not it." ”
Mrs. Wang wanted to say something, but she saw Jia Baoyu on the bed. immediately attracted his attention, and even Mother Jia let go of Lin Daiyu.
Jia Jiu looked at Jia Mu. looked at Mrs. Wang again, nodded with Jia Qian and Jia Qing, pulled Lin Daiyu with one hand, and Xichun with the other, went out of the house, and sat on the couch under the hugging building outside the corridor.
Before he sat down, Chaguo hadn't come up yet, and suddenly heard Xichun say: "Listening to the second sister praising others for his valuable character, I really thought he was a good one." Who would have thought it would be such a thing. ”
Jia Jiu was stunned when he heard this, and said: "He was originally the daughter of a merchant family, how good can this upbringing be?" Wouldn't it be a loss of your identity to deal with him? ”
Xichun said: "The second sister still praises his valuable character? ”
"Ah, that." Jia Jiu understood what Xichun wanted to say, and hurriedly said: "At that time, Sister Bao probably made up her mind in her heart. The look of the ruined boat reminds me of the past. Back then, I also escaped with the idea of becoming a benevolent person if I didn't succeed. Although I was lucky enough to get my father off the charge and not be harmed by a few slaves, at that time, I still took a big risk. The thrill of it was not even matched when I was in the north. Even now, when I think about it, I often break out in a cold sweat. Sister Bao has thousands of things, but seeing what he did for the family and his mother and brother, it really made people pinch a cold sweat for him. Not everyone has the courage to do it against that person in Sister Bao's position. ”
The one in Jia Jiu's words naturally refers to Mrs. Wang.
Although in front of Jia's mother, Jia Jiu sometimes uses her aunt, and sometimes she calls her second wife. But no matter how sweet his mouth is, when he mentions Mrs. Wang in private, there are only two words: that one.
Hearing Jia Jiu say this, the girls present all understood, and even the little girls in Jia Baoyu's house, who were waiting for the girls, nodded again and again.
It turned out that it was not that Miss Bao was really valuable, but that the second girl was injured and the rabbit died and the fox was sad.
"Where can he compare with the second sister!" Xichun snorted and said unconvinced, "What about 10 million taels of silver?" What's going on? ”
Jia Jiu thought for a while and said, "Yes." At that time, the fourth sister was mostly in Dongfu, and she was young, so she didn't know. It's a shame to say it. When my aunt entrusted my children to my father, he sighed more than once, saying that our family had made a fortune. Later, the eldest sister sealed the concubine's family to prepare for the provincial relatives, and the one went to the old lady every day to cry poor. I have also been to my house a few times, and when I saw something, I said that it would be great if it could be placed in the provincial villa. Every time Dao Door sent me a copy, he would also say a few words, saying that antiques are hard to find nowadays, and he would borrow a few things from me to put them on display. This is true for me, not to mention the old lady and my father. What is even more odious is that in just one month, the man went to the storehouse several times, and although he was stopped by the people in the storeroom, I heard that the old lady was faintly moved by him at that time. ”
"Is that true?"
Jia Jiu said: "What else is not true? At that time, it was only a long time since the eldest sister became a concubine! If you insist on not nodding, I am afraid that there will be no peace at home, but if you nod, it is a trivial matter for the family's treasury to be emptied by him, and I am afraid that even Sister Lin's things will be emptied by him. And you think it's going to go into the mouth of the guy and he'll spit it out for you? It's already good if you don't admit it and hit it upside down. ”
Xichun said: "I understand. The second sister took out so many stones in order to gag the mouth, is that so? deliberately handed it over to Sister Bao, just hoping to let Sister Bao grind, so that the second sister can live in peace and the family will be clean. Is that so? ”
Jia Jiu nodded and said, "That's right." As for why I gave money directly but to objects, I also considered it. For one, I don't have that much cash in my hands. Even though I had so much cash at the time, it would be a bit too conspicuous to move the silver directly. Second, it is obviously unrealistic to give a silver ticket or something. Not to mention this large sum of silver, which money bank's ticket number can be suppressed, let's just say that the silver ticket of 10 million taels of silver is just such a small and fluttering box. I'm afraid that if someone takes it, they will continue to ask me for money as if there is no such thing. Combining these two factors, I decided to give the stone. One is that the volume is large, and the other is that it needs to be carried, even if some people can't see it, but the capital is so big, there are always people with eyes. Even if he wants to, he can't deny it. As for the quantity, it is not only to make the heart move, but also to make the old lady speechless, but also to be able to charm Sister Bao's eyes and let him take the initiative to cooperate. Of course, there is also compensation for the Xue family, which must be included. Add a few strokes, and then make up a whole thing, isn't it a million stones? ”
Xichun was stunned for a moment and said, "Those stones already include compensation for the Xue family?" ”
Jia Jiu nodded and said, "Actually, if people outside can get in touch with the Daomen, they can also buy this imitation Taihu stone for three taels of silver and one stone." If the quantity is large, the price is still discounted. But those who have the ability and patience can sell it for ten taels of silver and one stone on ordinary days. If you have a good opportunity, it is not impossible to earn half of it and sell it for fifteen taels of silver. As far as I know, someone has done this. ”
Xichun then understood, and said: "It turns out that this million stones imitate Taihu Lake stones, if you meet someone who has the ability, and catch up with such a good time as the provincial relatives, you can at least earn 10 million taels of silver, and the stones in your own home are not counted." At that time, the money that sent him was there, and the money he had to go through the door, and he couldn't say that he had the money for his dowry, the expenses of the family, and even the more shops in the family. It's a pity. (To be continued......)
