Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Seed
"Mr. Kim, take care of it." Fu Qiuning instructed, but heard Jin Ming smile and said: "Grandma rest assured, the slave will deliberately talk to Mr., in fact, my brother is so smart, at a young age, he already has a few volumes of poetry in his belly, how can such a student not be loved by Mr.?" As long as the husband loves him and treats him well, there is no need to worry. After speaking, he led the four children out of the courtyard gate.
"Grandma doesn't have to worry too much, the young master and the young lady are very sensible and good children, for those gentlemen, we just don't provoke them, where will they be angry?"
Fu Qiuning sighed and said: "You don't know, I naturally know that they won't take the initiative to cause trouble, but I'm afraid that someone will take the initiative to provoke them." Alas! Why don't you worry me. After speaking, he heard Yu Niang say: "Grandma said so, shouldn't the young master have just let Miss Young Master wear that golden jade to school, let those children see it, wouldn't they be blushing?" I don't know what is going to happen, isn't the last dragon and phoenix jade pendant an example? ”
Fu Qiuning shook his head and said, "That's not what I said, I also took this into consideration." It's just that I think that they are also the children of the little marquis, in order not to be publicized, I have already arranged the dress to be very simple, if I don't even wear this gold Yingluo, how can other children look at them? The children of those relatives didn't know about this inner house, not to mention that my intention was not publicized, and I thought that they were really not treated well by the little marquis, and then they joined forces to bully them...... Alas! ”
Yujie said indignantly: "Grandma said this, why is there no end to it, hateful, how can this high-rise mansion compound be so unpredictable?" How many times has Master Hou come to us? It's so unfair to let them be so jealous and make it difficult for us everywhere, and now even the two children are affected. ”
"Houmen is as deep as the sea. The undercurrent is turbulent! Fu Qiuning sighed: "Otherwise, why don't I go into the backyard?" That's it, no matter what, just look at the lives of the two children, I hope they can please the husband and be less bullied. ”
Fu Qiuning was worried here. Qingwan Pavilion, which is a few miles away, is full of people at this time, and it is very lively. Although Jin Fengju was not in the house, the three aunts and concubines all gathered here to talk.
"I really don't know what the master thinks, I heard that those two actually followed into the clan study. What does that mean? Is it true that you don't even care about your identity? If people say that this is the laundry maid and the grandfather's child, where will his face go? What to do with lost reputation? Xu sat on a chair on the ground, his voice high-pitched. Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with the enrollment of the two brothers and sisters.
"That's it. What's the use of saying all of that now? What's more, although those two children are the children of the laundry slave, they are really the flesh and blood of the master. It is said that Brother Feng and his sister are seven or eight points similar to his father, but they look like he was when he was a child. This is also a grievance that the master is reluctant to let them fend for themselves, and our lord is not as ruthless as people think. ”
Jiang Wanying said slowly, showing the demeanor of a grandmother at this time. Xu originally thought that she could hold grievances with herself. But I didn't expect to get these few words that were not salty or light, and turned my head and snorted: "The master is kind, and grandma is also virtuous and generous." Look at what you say, how worthy of your identity. ”
"And what do you want me to say?" Jiang Wanying sneered: "If you have some words, you have a good temper." It is impossible for you not to have trouble day and night. Let me tell you the truth, even those two white jade lions were given to the brother and sister, how many times did we children ask for them and didn't give them to them? What is there in your hearts that is not clear? Whether it's a coward or a deception, I don't dare to provoke those two ancestors. Whoever of you is not afraid of death will provoke you, and when the time comes, you will suffer, but don't blame me for not warning in advance. ”
Cui Shi worried: "What can I do about this? According to Ye Suri's meaning, our children are not as good as others. ”
Huo Shi sneered: "You can't say that, I don't believe it, what's the matter?" I kissed for six years and raised a child for six years, but I can't compare to those two cheap seeds? Grandma don't be presumptuous, but it's no wonder that Brother Xuan is still young and doesn't learn much, no wonder he usually doesn't pay attention to him. It's just that Brother Yi is different, he is the first son of the master, and he learns well on weekdays, especially in poetry, even the master has praised it himself. Can you compare to those two who don't see the sky? Alas! It's a pity that we embroider like a soft temperament, and we are a girl, otherwise I would have to fight with those two, and let them see, who does the master hurt in his heart? Don't think that if you give two white jade lions and dragon and phoenix jade pendants, you really think that you are the precious children of the master. ”
Xu slapped his hand and said: "What my sister said is very true, the last time Brother Xuan and we fluttered their wings and dropped those two cheap jade pendants, and then I didn't see what the master did to them, although he gave the white jade lion, but he thought that they rarely came to the backyard on weekdays, and they got little love, so they gave so much idea compensation, in addition, what else did they have?" Tell me that grandma doesn't have to worry, if the two dare to turn the sky, let them know that they know that they are powerful. ”
Jiang Wanying sneered and said, "I don't care what you say? If your brother Yi can really subdue that Feng brother, I will say a word to you, I am timid, Sister Huo also said just now, our family Brother Xuan is not as good as Brother Yi is able to chant poetry, especially the blue eyes of the master, if you say to help the battle, it is okay, but I don't dare to take this head to surrender that Feng brother. If your brother can succeed, whatever I have here, you can choose whichever you want. It's just that the ugly words are ahead, if Brother Yi suffers a loss in the future, I don't care, I have warned you.
Aunt Xu's eyes lit up, she wasn't for Jiang Wanying's things, she just felt that if she could suppress this grandmother, who else in the house would see that she dared to be disrespectful and chew her tongue behind her back and say that she was not good? Maybe the master will be happy, and let her take care of the family's affairs, at that time, she has real power in her hands, maybe she can fight with Jiang Wanying, because the more she thinks about it, the more beautiful she becomes, and a happy smile blooms on her face. Jiang Wanying looked at her, and secretly scolded the fool in her heart, this time you are going to hit the muzzle of the gun. While drinking tea slowly, a slight smile bloomed on the corner of his lips.
A few women then gossiped for a while, and Qiu Xia came in and said to Jiang Wanying: "Grandma, the daughters-in-law in charge are waiting for a reply, and Fangrong in the wife's house also came, saying that after the grandmother's business is done, she will go to the wife's room, as if she is asking the two people in the evening breeze Xuan about going to the clan school."
Jiang Wanying stood up and said with a smile: "Really, what is there to ask about this?" I have already made up my mind, and I just mentioned it by pushing the boat. After speaking, he said to several aunts: "Okay, I also have to deal with some affairs, and you all go back separately." Today, the ancestors fasted and chanted the Buddha, and there was no need to ask for peace, I thought I could have a day of leisure, but who knew that I still couldn't get it, alas! My toiling life. ”
Cui Shi hurriedly said with a smile: "Look at what grandma said, as the saying goes, those who are capable work harder, all because grandma is capable, and my wife has pushed everything on you." Over the years, you have managed the big and small things in the family, and there is not even a single mistake, who doesn't say a word? Ye also often tells me that the most cherished is you, not only is your childhood sweetheart, but also you have to take care of the housework after you get married, it is rare that you are thin, and you take care of it thoroughly......"
Although Cui's temperament is soft, he is very good at talking, and Jiang Wanying, who is a sycophant, is extremely comfortable. Xu and Huo snorted coldly on the side, looking extremely disdainful. It was easy to wait for Cui Shi to finish speaking, and Huo Shi smiled and said: "Sister Cui can speak, but the concubine can't." If my sister is tired, the concubine is willing to share her worries and relieve her sister's labor, but I am afraid that my sister will not will. ”
Jiang Wanying sneered, raised her chin and looked at Huo Shi with burning eyes, and said leisurely: "What's the matter?" Do you want to take care of my housekeeper? I don't disagree, you go and ask the master, ask the wife, ask the ancestors, if they agree, I naturally have no opinion. ”
Huo Shi wanted to say something, but he didn't open his mouth after all, snorted coldly, and turned around and walked out of the room angrily.
Not to mention that Fu Qiuning and Jiang Wanying, as well as Aunt Xu, Aunt Huo and others have their own thoughts, just say that in the school, today is the first day of class for Confucianism, and all the young children in the clan who were able to enter the clan school were all packed up and entered the school, until this time, Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao found that there were so many children in the original clan, not only those half-brothers and sisters who had no affection.
"Brother watch out, I'm going to the Girls Academy." Jin Zangjiao took her brother's little hand, and tears almost flowed out. From the day of birth, she and her brother depended on each other, they suffered together, and raised together under Fu Qiuning's knees, and finally got rid of the past suffering, these five years, the brother and sister get along day and night, although they have slept in separate beds since the age of six, but every day when they wake up, as long as they run out of the house, they can see each other's figures, they can shout "brother", throw themselves into his arms, and then play and laugh together, read and learn to play the piano and paint together. Now that they are suddenly separated, how can they not make the little girl sad and cry.
Jin Zangfeng comfortingly took his sister's hand and said in a deep voice: "You should also pay attention, don't reply after two cold words, you can endure it for a while, my mother is right, she is willing to sneer or scold, just bear with it, anyway, it won't drop a piece of meat." ”
Jin Zangjiao nodded, and had the heart to say a few more words to her brother, but when she saw that the eyes of the other children were focused on her brother and sister, and she was afraid that her husband would come early, she didn't like her brother after seeing this scene, so she had to say goodbye with tears and go with Luhua.
Because of his young age, Jin Zangfeng's Jin Seal can be allowed to accompany Jin Zangfeng to read, which is a special favor in the family study of the Jin Marquis, otherwise other families will not have this rule. However, there are very few companions in the school, and most of them are accompanied by seventeen or eighteen-year-old children, and at this time they can only rest in the gatehouse outside the school.
