Jin Chu'er left quickly, leaving Tanchun alone in the house, stunned by the pen holder and the lake pen in front of him.

Tanchun knew that it was Mrs. Wang who was forcing him to make a choice.

Mrs. Wang asked him to choose between his mother-in-law and his biological mother, and between his father and his mother-in-law.

If it is in the original book, there is no need to hesitate to explore spring.

Tanchun knows very well that his biological mother is a concubine, and she is also a concubine from a girl. Even if Aunt Zhao is very methodical and envelops Jia Zheng, Aunt Zhao's identity is destined to limit his vision and communication to one acre and three points of land in Jia Zheng's backyard.

If his marriage is completely transferred to Aunt Zhao, with Aunt Zhao's vision and ability, it is good that he can finally marry a poor relative on the back street. It is more likely that Aunt Zhao will let the children of his mother's family enter the house and let Tanchun call his uncle and aunt.

Thinking about such days, Tanchun shuddered.

Even if he knew that he was just a maidservant and a daughter, Tanchun was unwilling to be in the company of those merchant pawns and domestic slaves. In Tanchun's eyes, these people are all slaves of the Jia family, and he is a girl of the Jia family, so he should not be on an equal footing with these people.

As for Jia Zheng, Tanchun knows very well how unreliable his father is, otherwise, the old lady would not be so sighing in the future.

The only hope is his mother-in-law.

Tanchun also knew that his mother-in-law had been rejected by the above. But Tanchun also knows that the world knows that his mother-in-law is carrying the black pot for his father. So, while people talk about their mother-in-law when they do. Many people shake their heads, but in fact, there are also many people who maintain considerable sympathy for their mothers-in-law.

The most representative figure in this is his cousin.

What's more, he also has a sister who is the imperial concubine.

If it's a grandmother from six years ago. Of course, there is no need to hesitate to visit spring, but now it is different.

My mother-in-law is now just a commoner, without a decree, and she still carries a stigma on her body, even if most of this stigma is because of her father. But it is also an indisputable fact that the mother-in-law is a commoner.

The identity of the mother-in-law is only slightly higher than her biological mother, not even higher.

Tanchun can see clearly. The world's evaluation of his father is really not high, seeing that his father has lived in the back for so long, and no one invited his father out to the banquet. The uncle's bad reputation over there was blown out. But his father's bad reputation is real. If his father makes a marriage for himself, others are afraid that they will shake their heads when they see their father, let alone anything else. There is only his mother-in-law, and people see him as a little windy. Although there is a mistake. But it is also a last resort, and maybe you will hear two sentences.

However, Tanchun knows very well in his heart that whether it is his father, his mother-in-law, or his biological mother, it is impossible for him to have a good future. In addition to relying on his elderly grandmother, he can only rely on the kindness of his cousin for his future.

The question is. Although his grandmother looked tough, she didn't know if she could survive until that time. And his cousin, is he willing to help?

"I'd rather be Sister Lin." Tanchun muttered.

Coincidentally, this was heard by the waiter who had just returned from the kitchen: "What did the girl say? Why would you rather be Miss Lin? ”

Tanchun didn't speak, pointed to the pastel pen holder and lake pen in front of him and said, "Put them away." ”

The waiter was stunned.

Not to mention, it's not very rare. However, this pastel pen holder is an ornament in Mrs. Wang's house, and the waiter certainly recognizes it.

The waiter is also a smart person, so after thinking about it for a while, he naturally understood.

He hurriedly found two boxes and put them away, and was about to put them in the cabinet, but heard Tanchun say, "That's it, that pastel pen holder is still on the table." The lake pen was also taken out to summon. ”

The waiter answered, and hurriedly took out these two things, and arranged them in turn, so that Tanchun was served with tea fruits.

Tanchun was preoccupied, just holding the tea bowl and being stunned, and after a while, he heard Tanchun say: "What's the news in the kitchen?" ”

The waiter replied, "What else can I do?" It's just that the second girl gave her own milk to the fourth girl. Cuimo didn't understand the rules, and quarreled with the mother-in-law below, but it was Qingwen from the second girl's house who came over to settle it. ”

Today's Cuimo is not the Cuimo in the Grand View Garden in the original book. Cuimo in the original book, after Xue Baochai came to Jia's house, followed Tanchun to live in the Baoxia behind Mrs. Wang's Rongxi Hall for a few years, and experienced a lot of things, so he moved into Daguan Garden, and naturally matured a lot.

The current Cuimo was moved directly from Jia's mother's yard to the back garden.

When she was in Jia's mother's yard, even if she wanted to please the cooks below, it was because the cooks in Jia's mother's yard were all old people who served Jia's mother, and they even had to pay tribute to Tanchun, not to mention Cuimo, a girl. In the original book, even Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng and his wife have to please the mandarin ducks, not to mention that Tanchun is a concubine, but those old people are Jia's mother who is used to eating their dishes and is very decent in the kitchen of the Jia family.

In Cui Mo's opinion, of course he should respect those people in Jia's mother's yard, but the cook lady in the small kitchen in the back garden is serving their girls, so of course he can reprimand them.

How did he find a loophole, and he was about to shake off his majesty, but he was slapped in the face.

Cuimo's heart is really not calm.

Tanchun said: "That's it." Now that we are living in the mansion of the great lord, we should be cautious in our words and deeds. Cuimo is also too unstable. ”

Coincidentally, Cui Mo happened to open the curtain and came in, and when she heard this, she immediately said, "The girl still said it." In the second girl's house, the Huansha Pavilion, and the Xiangxue Villa, there are examples of milk. The two girls in the Huansha Pavilion couldn't finish eating, so they simply used them to wash their faces and take a bath, even the girls below also used them to give favors. But we don't. Today, I saw that there was one in the kitchen, and I wanted to bring it to the girl, but I was stopped by those mothers-in-law, and those mothers-in-law didn't give it or say anything. And said a lot of inconsequential things......"

In this matter, the servant was also angry in his heart, so he didn't stop it until Cuimo said this: "What nonsense are you talking about!" The bowl of ice cream turned out to be saved by the second girl's mouth for the fourth girl. It's just that I'm afraid that the four girls will eat too much at once and spoil their stomachs, so they put more in the kitchen. Where there are so many things. ”

Cuimo replied, "Shouldn't I say it?" The fourth girl has it, I heard that Miss Xing also got it, and even Miss Yun has it, I'm afraid there is it. Just our girl, we didn't even see a shadow! I'm not a careful eye. Mind that little thing. I'm just angry that the second girl didn't take the girl in her eyes. ”

Tanchun listened, and a grievance also rose in his heart.

In this world, the most important thing is identity. And identity is such a thing, relying on the ability to reincarnate. No matter how many means there are the day after tomorrow, it is in vain if the ability to reincarnate is not good.

Just like their cousins. Both of them are concubines, and they are also quite scheming. They are also very good at planning for themselves and their families. Even both of them are very resourceful. From this point of view, Tanchun thinks that there is not much difference between himself and Jia Jiu, and it is not much worse.

What makes him inferior to his cousin is that his ability to reincarnate is not good enough.

Although his cousin is also a concubine, she is not as good as a concubine, but she will choose the reincarnated belly. Even if it's a concubine. But the other party's biological mother is a serious concubine who has gone through formal government documents. Even if it is an identity. I am not afraid of the government's scrutiny.

Although he is also a concubine, he is a maidservant daughter, and his father is not qualified to take a concubine at all, and even his mother-in-law does not nod, he is a maidservant daughter, maybe he can't even get on the family tree, let alone marry highly, so he can only be a concubine for others, or a dowry for the family.

Tanchun knew very well that if there was no miracle, his fate would be like this.

The maidservants of other families, if their father has a serious concubine, can also be hung under the name of a serious concubine, and can marry the second son of a Chinese family or a concubine of an official eunuch family as a wife. His father didn't even have the qualifications to have a concubine, and his mother-in-law was like that, except for being a concubine, he had no chance of marrying into a high family in his life.

Like Aunt Xue, marrying a merchant turned out to be his best choice.

Tanchun's heart was bitter.

He knew that people like the Jia family were the most taboo about changing relatives. Since the Xue family intends to marry Xue Baochai to Jia Baoyu, it is impossible for him to have the opportunity to marry either of the two brothers, Xue Pan and Xue Zhen.

Thinking that he couldn't even enter a family like the Xue family, how could the arrogant Tanchun accept it?

But Rao is like this, Tanchun can only ponder in his heart, can't declare it, and even whitewash the peace in front of the girls.

Tanchun hooked the corners of his mouth, made a look of indifference, and said, "You, what's there to fight about?" That milk is not easy to get, and there was a fight in the Baoyu House for that cup of steamed cheese in the old days. Why did you just move in now, and you also made trouble? It's not a shame. ”

"But ......"

Tanchun stopped Cuimo's next words and said, "You want to compare with Xiangxue Villa, why haven't you heard that Sister Lin came to this mansion with a family fortune of nine million taels of silver?" Don't talk about that little milk example, even if Sister Lin takes a bath in milk every day, no one can speak. People spend their own money, can it be the same? ”

When Cuimo heard this, he could only hang his head, and only said after a long time: "It's really the same life." ”

Tanchun also sighed in his heart.

The waiter was silent for a while, and said, "Where can the girl compare to Miss Lin?" Miss Lin is taken care of by the old lady, by the second girl, and by the master of this house, what are we? ”

But I heard someone outside say: "How did the old lady take care of Sister Lin?" ”

Tanchun hurriedly stood up, but saw Xichun coming in step by step under the escort of the girls and mothers-in-law. Because he was still young and so strong, he insisted on not being hugged all the way, so that his legs, which were not used to walking, became weak, and he staggered when he walked.

Tanchun hurriedly came out to greet him, and the two sisters saw each other, so they sat on the big kang near the window. Another little girl brought tea.

Tanchun said: "Why is the fourth sister here?" This road is not easy to walk, why didn't the fourth sister let Mama hold it? ”

Xi Chun flattened his mouth and said, "I don't want anyone to hug me." The second sister said that when she was a child, she walked and ran more, and her legs and feet would be better. I've been walking unsteadily because my grandmothers hold me too much. I think so. Moreover, my third sister and I live in this back garden, from the Lingering Garden to the third sister, it is a bluestone road, which is very smooth and easy to walk. I thought, it's okay today, and I'll take a look at the third sister by the way. ”

Tanchun was stunned.

The brocade building is in the southwest corner of the back garden, and the ten zhang soft red and the Wenying Pavilion are in other directions. Xichun said that it was a way, but how to go by the way?

Thinking about it like this, the hard-mouthed and soft-hearted Xichun is a little cute.

Thinking about this, the mood of spring exploration is much better.

He didn't say anything, he only gave tea to Xichun, and asked for snacks.

Xichun looked at Cui Mo, who was still indignant on his face, and the waiter who looked a little uncomfortable, turned his head to Tanchun and said, "Third sister, what is the trouble in your house?" Got involved with Sister Lin? ”

Tanchun pointed to the waiter and Cui Mo and said, "It's just these two girls, saying that Sister Lin called our family, and she is different from the sisters." Not only the old lady guarded it, but the second sister also protected it. ……”

Xichun put down the tea bowl in his hand with the appearance of a little adult, and said: "If you talk about the second sister, the second sister values and loves all the sisters very much. Sister Lin is entrusted by Lord Lin to the master of this mansion, and it is normal for the second sister to be careful. As for the old lady, I didn't see how much the old lady took care of Sister Lin. ”

Tanchun was taken aback: "Fourth sister, how can you say that about the old lady?" Sister Lin is the granddaughter of the old lady's in-laws, why doesn't the old lady take care of him? ”

Xichun said: "The Book of Rites, haven't the third sister read it?" It is clearly written above that the father is mourned, and the children are filial piety for three years. Sister Lin has no father, so she naturally has three years of filial piety, but how did the old lady arrange it? If it weren't for the second sister to stop her, I'm afraid that Sister Lin would be in the same room as Baoyu, where would she be able to keep filial piety? At that time, Sister Lin not only lost her reputation, but also had a reputation of unfilial piety. Is this also excellent for him? Let you eat and dress well, but don't treat you as a person, let you be on the cusp, be judged by others, and fall from head to toe, this is also a great treatment for you? I thought that the third sister was an understanding person, but it turned out that it was nothing more than that. ”

Xichun immediately jumped off the kang, and regardless of Tanchun's obstruction, he ran away.

Tanchun couldn't stop it, so he could only watch Xichun run away in a daze.

Tanchun couldn't have imagined that in Xichun's eyes, he looked at Jia's mother's attitude towards Lin Daiyu like this.

But Tanchun can't say that Xichun is wrong.

On the contrary, what Xichun said was indeed the truth.

Mother Jia is just good-looking to Lin Daiyu, but she doesn't even give face.

Even Tanchun himself can't say that Mother Jia is very good to Lin Daiyu. He could even see that if Lin Daiyu lived in Jia's mother's yard, then the girls below saw that Jia's mother didn't respect this granddaughter, and they didn't even let him keep filial piety, but they were afraid that the words of this arrangement would be indispensable from now on.

Even a girl like the attacker wants to keep filial piety to her deceased mother, and Jia's mother nodded her head. As a young lady, Lin Daiyu can't even keep filial piety for her father, but I'm afraid that in the eyes of those girls in the Jia family, Lin Daiyu can't even compare to a girl bought from outside.
