On Baochai's birthday, the sisters were invited to have a lively time, eat and drink, and watch the play until the evening. Jia's mother originally planned to leave Daiyu to live at home, and didn't want Jia Min to send someone to pick her up early, but Jia's mother was not very happy and said: "It's late, so I will stay overnight, and I will send someone to pick it up early." ”

Daiyu sat next to Jia's mother and said with a smile: "Niang Yuan said that if it is late, she will stay at my grandmother's house for the night." But I made an appointment with my sister of the Mu family, and Ming'er was going to see her, so I could only live up to my grandmother's kindness. ”

Mother Jia stroked Daiyu's hair, "Is it the youngest daughter of Mu Shilang's family?" ”

"Well, Sister Mu has already decided on a family, and she is about to get married." Sister Mu mentioned by Daiyu, whose single name is Shan, is Mu Lin's youngest daughter, only two years older than Daiyu, and is a friend she made after returning to Beijing from Jiangnan.

Mu Lin and Lin Ruhai's friendship is extraordinary, and he is familiar with today's sage Xiao Jinhe before he ascended the throne. Over the years, Mu Lin An'an has been an official, and he has been promoted smoothly and steadily, and last year he achieved the position of a waiter in the Criminal Department. Seeing that the criminal department is old, the entire criminal department is basically up to him, and his promotion is just around the corner.

How could Xiao Jin let go of such a good marriage partner, and happily ordered Mu Lin's youngest daughter to be the fourth princess, and the wedding was scheduled for October this year.

Mu Shan was born in her father's office and never went to Duzhong, so she didn't have many playmates in her boudoir, but many cousins.

Mother Jia naturally knew who Mu Shan was, she smiled slightly, and instructed Daiyu: "Get along well with Miss Mu, be considerate of each other, and don't quarrel." ”

Daiyu nodded softly, "Well, I know what to say." ”

For a while, the car outside had been set, and Jia's mother asked someone to send Daiyu out. After Daiyu returned home, she first came to the main courtyard to see her mother, Jia Min smiled and beckoned, "Come and sit." When she saw her daughter Yurong smiling, she asked, "Did you have a good time today?" ”

"Hmm." Daiyu nodded.

Jia Min patted her. "Go and change your clothes, come over again, I made a good soup, you use a bowl and then go to sleep."

Daiyu responded, brought someone back to change clothes, and came here again. Jia Min always felt as if her daughter had something to say to her, so she waved away everyone and asked her, "What's the matter?" ”

Daiyu lowered her head slightly, and her voice was a little small: "Mother, I think the eldest cousin and the second cousin don't seem to be in harmony." "Today. Although Li Kun's words were said with a smile, everyone heard the thorns in them.

"Zhu's daughter-in-law and Lian's daughter-in-law?" Jia Min smiled understandingly, "The brothers born by a mother may turn their faces because of money and power, let alone concubines." Moreover, they are just cousins, and it happens that one of them is long, but they are in the second room. One is in the second, but he is the grandson of the long house. You sister-in-law Feng. is also a person who likes to take power, so showy, your sister-in-law is housekeeper at the same time as her, but she is lined up. Naturally, it will not be happy. ”

"Speaking of which, your grandmother did something wrong. She shouldn't have left your eldest uncle outside, but only took your second uncle with her. ”

Daiyu said: "I originally wanted to ask, obviously it is the lord of the eldest uncle." Why is the second uncle living with his grandmother? ”

Jia Min smiled, "This matter is a long story. Your uncle did it himself. Speaking seriously, it's no wonder that your grandmother doesn't look down on him. On the same day, Jia Daishan was angry with Jia Yu, although for the sake of the entire Jia family, the facts cannot be said, but it does not mean that Jia's mother does not blame her son. She would rather let people say that she is biased than live with Jia Yu.

"It's all from the older generation." Jia Min sighed, "Originally, your grandmother asked you to be the daughter-in-law of your second brother, but she can be regarded as a little forgiving for your eldest uncle." It's a pity that Brother Feng is not angry, and he went down the crooked road by himself, and your grandmother had to bring your eldest cousin-in-law out again. But your eldest cousin-in-law doesn't like to offend people the most, and the director of the family only follows the rules and refuses to miss a little. Your second cousin-in-law is very shrewd and powerful, so much so that your eldest cousin-in-law is empty. ”

"This person, she can not love power and don't care about things, but that's not the same as others squeezing her so hard that she can't take care of things."

Daiyu pursed her lips and nodded slightly.

Jia Min suddenly thought of something and was happy, "Now that I think about it, it is also beneficial for my son to marry the prince." Enter the door and be at home, and those concubines, if you like it, you can communicate more, if you are not happy, you will be far away, and you don't have to be like your eldest cousin and second cousin, you have to live together if you have a suspicion. If you look up and don't see what you look down, you don't know how to make a fuss in your heart. ”

At the mention of her marriage, Daiyu's face flushed, she got up and stomped her feet, and said, "Mother, how can you talk about this." Throwing down this sentence, he covered his little face, turned around and ran away, and Jia Min was very happy.

When Lin Ruhai came back, seeing that his wife was in a very good mood, he asked curiously: "Why are you so happy?" ”

Jia Min smiled: "It's just that I suddenly want Yu'er to marry the prince, it seems that there are many benefits." ”

Lin Ruhai has never been able to listen to the marriage of his obedient little daughter, so his face darkened immediately, "Hmph, the five princes are still far away, and they have to learn." "No, I must do my homework tomorrow for that kid to be too busy to harass my daughter. Even if the saint has a tacit understanding with him, he hasn't invented a decree yet, so what's the matter with him coming to my house every day!

In January, Mrs. Wang Ziteng celebrated her birthday, and specially sent four women to send a post to Jia Min.

"Our wife said that the birthday celebration was just a reason, and she just wanted to invite everyone to come and have fun. Our wife said that this time we invited a troupe from the south, and I think you must like to hear it. "Led by a woman in her thirties, with a round face, she looks very festive, and when she speaks, she is unhurried, and she sounds very comfortable.

Jia Min smiled: "It stands to reason that Mrs. Wang has a birthday, and I should go to congratulate you in person." It's just a coincidence that I received the will of the queen's mother, so that I will not be able to go to the palace to talk in the past few days. ”

"Accompany your wife on my behalf, and when I have a few days to spare, I will invite her to come over."

Jia Min didn't leave here, and when Jia Mu heard about it, she didn't bother to move. Mrs. Wang had the heart to go home, but it can be seen that Jia's mother didn't go back, so she didn't go either. Aunt Xue went with Sister Feng and the three sisters of the Jia family, Baochai and Baoyu, and they all went together, and it was lively for a whole day, and they returned in the evening.

Baoyu ate too much wine, laughed and played with Caixia, to the point that he annoyed one person, it was his brother Jia Huan. He pushed the oil lamp and burned his face. Mother Jia was distressed and asked the doctor for medicine. Because I remembered what Jia Min had said, she had a good scald cream there. Hurriedly sent someone to fetch it.

Jia Min ordered someone to bring it, and couldn't help but ask what it was for, and the mother-in-law learned it one by one. Baoyu was burned, and as an aunt, she definitely wanted to go and see it.

"Cherry, call someone to set up a car."

"Star fruit, go get some supplements."

"Apricot take the clothes from going out."

She tossed around here and went to Jiafu with her things.

As soon as he saw Baoyu, half of his face was wrapped, and Jia Min's first reaction was. Don't break the appearance of such a beautiful little face. He asked again: "How did you get this, so good that you burned your face?" Did you sleep with an oil lamp in your arms? ”

It's okay if Jia Min doesn't ask, this question reminded Jia's mother. Before, she was patronizing and angry, and when she heard Baoyu say that she was hot, she didn't ask in detail. At this time, Jia Min brought up the old matter again, and she was also suspicious, so she asked, "That's right." If your aunt doesn't say it, I forgot. How is it hot, make it clear to me, don't hide it. ”

Baoyu hurriedly said: "It's really hot on my own." ”

Jia Mu laughed angrily. "Could it be true that you told your aunt that you slept with an oil lamp in your arms?"

"I, I drank too much yesterday, and I didn't pay attention for a while. Raised his hand and touched it. Baoyu said.

Although Jia Min said that he looked down on Baoyu a little, he had to say that this child was still very kind. Jia Huan obviously deliberately wanted to burn his eyes. Not only did he not take advantage of the situation to sue, but he hid it for his younger brother, and this heart is also rare. When it came to Jia Huan, at a young age, he was so vicious, and he was a good second brother of hers, but he didn't care about teaching, he just stared at Baoyu.

Mother Jia pointed to her grandson, "You sit down on the side for me, don't speak, wait for me to ask others." ”

"You are his own mother, and I was burned in your house yesterday, what the hell is going on?" Jia Mu asked Mrs. Wang directly.

Mrs. Wang smiled: "It's true that he was naughty and accidentally made it." Jia Mu asked, what can she say, say that it was the concubine who got it? Hehe, I'm afraid that if I say it, it will make Jia Zheng suspect that he is deliberately framing his concubine.

Jia Min smiled slightly, "Okay, the second sister-in-law said so, what else are you going to pursue." ”

Jia Mu sighed heavily, "Forget it, I'm old, and I can't control you anymore, just let you make trouble." After saying that, he closed his eyes, leaned back, and said no more.

She said this sentence a little heavily, and Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, who were seated, stood up, but Jia Min didn't move, and stretched out her hand to push Jia Mu: "What's the matter, are you really angry?" has such a virtuous daughter-in-law as the second sister-in-law, you should be happy, you are angry with that family! ”

Mother Jia was so angry that she opened her eyes and slapped her, "I'm not angry with others, only you." ”

Jia Min turned around, "Since this is so attractive to your eyes, then I'll go." ”

"Dead girl, are you going to make me angry to death?"

Jia Min approached Jia's mother and stroked her chest, "You are my own mother, even if you surrender to me, I don't dare to be angry with you." ”

Mother Jia slowly eased her expression, looked at the two daughters-in-law again, and said lightly: "You all sit down." Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang dared to sit down.

At this time, Baoyu's named godmother Ma Daopo came to the house. After entering the house, he smiled and invited a circle of An, and when he saw Baoyu, he immediately took a big start, and asked in a fuss: "My brother, how did you get this?" ”

The treasure lord didn't like her, and only in front of the elders, he could only reply with a smile: "It was accidentally hot." ”

Nama Daopo nodded and sighed, and drew a few pictures with her fingers on Baoyu's face, muttering in her mouth, and reciting a curse again, saying: "It's taken care of, this is just a temporary disaster." ”

Jia Min looked at her chattering, frowned unconsciously, and asked, "What are you doing here?" Just draw your fingers, and the injury will be healed? Then what else do you need the doctor to do, and what kind of medicine do you need? ”

Jia's mother pulled her daughter, and she was the most superstitious as an elderly woman in the house. "You don't have to say a word."

Jia Min pursed his lips and didn't say anything more, Ma Daopo smiled: "It's not that I'm boasting, over the years, I have been devout to the Buddha, and I can be regarded as having some understanding." ”

Jia Min sneered: "You are not dressed as a Taoist aunt, why don't you worship the Sanqing Patriarch and go to believe in Buddhism?" Aren't you afraid that the Sanqing Patriarch will dispose of you, a traitor! ”

Ma Daopo was speechless immediately, she smiled, embarrassed to say, now the monk is a family, that is pure nonsense. Originally, when she saw Baoyu being burned, she wanted to talk more seriously, so as to coax Jia's mother to give some sesame oil money. She went to and from Jiafu to know Jia's mother's love for this second master. If it is for him to eliminate disasters and alleviate difficulties, he will be willing to pay any amount of money. I didn't want to, just started a sentence, and was stirred up by Jia Min. At this time, she didn't want to bring it up again, so she sat down for a while, and then came out under the pretext.

When Mother Jia saw Ma Daopo leaving, she blamed her daughter: "You are becoming more and more bold now, you dare to say anything, and you are not afraid that the Bodhisattva will hear the blame." ”

Jia Min pursed his lips. He said nonchalantly: "I worship the Tao, I believe in the Sanqing Patriarch, and the Bodhisattva can't control me." At this point, she couldn't help but persuade Jia's mother: "Like a nun like Ma Daopo just now, Daogu's, she goes in and out of various houses on weekdays, does all kinds of bad things, her mouth is still broken, and her hands are still black." The heart is still ruthless, and good people are afraid of bringing them tired. In the future, you'd better let them come to the door less. ”

"Don't take them as monks, the monks will spend money on oil lamps when they meet."

"Nonsense!" Jia Mu slapped her angrily and funny. "You're all people with grandchildren, and you're so open-mouthed."

When it came to her great-grandson, Jia's mother was interested, "Brother Xu'er is okay now?" Fat or not? Now you can turn over, right? ”

Mention of grandchildren. Jia Min was also happy, with a smile in his eyes: "It's not just that I can turn over, but now I can sit very firmly." ”

"Yo. It's only been five months, right? Mrs. Wang interjected.

"It's been almost six months." Jia Min smiled: "This kid is all good, but he is too naughty." As long as you don't fall asleep, you won't be able to stop breathing for a moment. ”

Mother Jia smiled when she heard this: "Boy, it's good to get some." He said regretfully: "It's a pity, it's still cold today." Otherwise, you can hug it and take a look. ”

Jia Min said: "What's so difficult about this, but at most another month, it will be hot, I'll bring him over and show you." ”

Jia Mu nodded, asked a lot of questions, and then changed the topic without getting enough.

While they were talking here, a little girl came in and said a few words in Amber's ear, and she hurriedly came over and smiled: "Old lady, Mrs. Gu's family came to pick up Mrs. Gu home, saying that it was someone from the palace, and Mrs. Gu entered the palace to see the queen." ”

Mother Jia hurriedly pushed her daughter, "I won't keep you anymore, go quickly." ”

Jia Min got up calmly and said with a smile: "Then I'll come back another day." With that, he said goodbye to Jia's mother and two sisters-in-law.

Mother Jia hated: "My little aunt, you hurry up, it's just grinding." ”

"Hey, hey, hey, I know." Jia Min answered a few times and walked out. She is not in a hurry, the queen is bored these days, so she wants to ask her to enter the palace to talk, and it is not important to be late for a while.

It is true that the queen asked Jia Min to enter the palace this time, but it was for the marriage of her son and Daiyu. "The fourth daughter-in-law has also decided, and the marriage will be completed at the end of the year, and it will be Yan'er's turn."

Jia Min nodded, "I'm still the same sentence, get a few less grandmothers who have more things to do." ”

"Okay, okay, Yu'er is the same as my own girl, I can still harm her." The queen glanced at Jia Min, "I called you here today, just to tell you, and I will ask the sage to make an order tomorrow." ”

"Hmm." Jia Min nodded. But there was a feeling of melancholy in my heart, my daughter, who had been pampered since childhood, was now betrothed.

Sure enough, within a few days, the sage issued an order to hire Lin Ruhai's eldest daughter Lin as the wife of the fifth prince. In order to make the wedding look good, he gave his son the title of king, which was for King Yan. Ever since the prince knew that Lin Rui's sister wanted to be his younger brother's daughter-in-law, he had been teaching his younger brother to love his wife and daughter-in-law, and he was less dazzled by those wild flowers.

"If you are unkind in the future, you don't need Uncle Lin to beat you, I will tie you up first, and then I will personally go to ask my uncle for guilt." Prince Xiao Chen had a cold face and glared at his younger brother.

Xiao Yan puffed out his cheeks angrily, "I will definitely do better than you!" ”

Xiao Chen squinted at him: "You ......"

"What's wrong with me, anyway, I won't be like you, looking for some ugly women." As he spoke, he stuck out his tongue at Xiao Chen, and then ran away, leaving Xiao Chen jumping angrily.

Daiyu's marriage has been decided, and she is married to the prince again, and Jia's mother is so happy that she came to congratulate her in person. It's just that in this happiness, there are inevitably two regrets.

Others are okay, but Baoyu's injuries have not healed and he is not allowed to go out. I heard that Daiyu was engaged, and I couldn't tell what the deep sadness in my heart was. He couldn't talk to anyone, so he could only lie on the bed sullenly.

Baochai has always been careful, and when he saw Baoyu depressed, he often came over to joke with him to relieve his boredom. Baoyu is a person who likes beautiful girls around him, and Baochai is a stunning posture, reading a lot, and having a wide range of knowledge, saying two sentences at will, but he doesn't know what to do, Baoyu has to sigh at Baochai's erudition.

Baochai smiled: "What am I?" It's just that I've read too many miscellaneous books, and there's nothing serious. ”

Baoyu said: "Where are the miscellaneous books, I see that there is a lot of knowledge in them." At one time, he asked Baochai what books he had read, and made a wish that he would also find it.

Bluffing Baochai hurriedly stopped him, and said: "I am a boudoir daughter, I have read these books a little, not to mention that you are a gentleman, you should read more four books and five classics." ”

The most annoying thing in Baoyu's life is listening to these words. Hearing this, he stood up, looked at Baochai, and turned around to walk out.

Baochai's face was flushed, only to hear Baoyu shout: "Oh! What a headache! She looked up and saw that Baoyu was jumping, three or four feet above the ground, and her mouth was full of nonsense.

Baochai and the girls in Baoyu's room were frightened, and they hurriedly reported to Mrs. Wang and Mother Jia. The two hurriedly came over to take a look. Na Baoyu took a knife and a cane, looking for death and life, and the world was turned upside down.

Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were so frightened that they couldn't do it. The child cried loudly. So they alarmed the people, and they came together. When Baoyu was making trouble here, Sister Feng also made a fuss.

Baoyu and Sister Feng fell ill together. Rongguo's mansion was in chaos, asking for medicine and asking God to worship Buddha. The list goes on and on, but it's not always good. In the end, Jia Zheng was discouraged and discouraged Jia Yu: "The number of children always has a destiny, and it is not human power that can be strengthened." The two of them were not cured in any way, and they thought that it was the will of heaven that they had to let him go. ”

Jia Yu was a little more fatherly than Jia Zheng, and he didn't bother to pay attention to his younger brother, but he was still busy in every way.

Jia Min was busy with Daiyu's affairs, so he had the time to come and take a look.

Baoyu was burned before, and the two of them fell ill for no reason, which touched her long-sealed memory. Before going out, he called the people in the house, "Go and find out where the Ma Daopo lived, and then tell the lord to take the people and send them to the Shuntian Mansion." ”

When she arrived at Jia's house, Sister Feng Baoyu was lying on the bed, even her breath was faint, many people said that there was no hope, and Jia's mother and the others cried darkly. Jia Min was afraid that crying would hurt Mother Jia, so she came over and persuaded: "Don't cry, now that Brother Bao and Feng Yatou are sick, you should take care of your body and preside over the overall situation." You just cried, if you cry badly, your brother and sister-in-law will still be busy with you, and the good doctor will also do your best, what will Brother Bao and Feng Yatou do when the time comes? After saying this, Jia Mu immediately stopped crying, and said, "Min'er is here, take a look at Baoyu, my poor grandson." ”

Jia Min only arrived at Baoyu's bed at this time, and saw that his face was as white as paper, his lips were also skinned, and his breath was faint, and he was indeed terminally ill. "What's going on, so good, why are you so sick? Don't be harmed, right? ”

When she said this, others didn't think anything, Aunt Zhao was indeed like five thunders, and her heart trembled. Originally, I wanted to go forward and persuade Jia's mother to show herself, but I hated to shrink myself into the crack of the wall, so that people couldn't see her.

Jia Mu's ears immediately stood up, and she grabbed Jia Min's hand tightly and said, "You mean ......?"

Before Jia Min could speak, Jia Zheng shook his head: "Zi is silent, strange and confused, sister, don't talk nonsense." ”

Jia Min said unhappily: "I'm talking nonsense, the second brother said, how can you be so sick when you are so good?" She turned to stare at Jia Zheng and sneered: "You are still a father, and you don't have the slightest fatherly heart." The children are sick like this, the eldest brother, who is still an uncle, is still anxious, who are you worthy of? ”

"I know that you have always been tired of Baoyu, isn't it just because he caught Zhou Shi and grabbed rouge gouache to play? My good second brother, if you don't believe in Buddhism or Taoism, how can you believe in the saying that a child will be determined for life? ”

Jia Zheng was reprimanded by his sister with a big red face, and wanted to refute it, but he didn't know where to start, so he only choked with blue lips.

Jia's mother was also angry that her second son was too cold to her grandson at this time, knowing that her daughter said that her second brother was inappropriate, so she didn't know her anger. Du Jia pardon, for so many years, for the first time, my sister said that he was better than the second brother, and my heart was very appropriate. Hurriedly said: "Sister, I heard that the Huang Hospital of Tai Hospital has extremely high medical skills, maybe please come?" ”

Jia Min nodded and said, "Before I came, I had already sent someone to invite me." (To be continued......)
