After Jia Lian left Beijing, Wang Xifeng ordered Ping'er to move into the main room and sleep with him every night.
However, even so, it is difficult to explain Jia Lian's worries about leaving home. Moreover, his body is getting heavier and he has to manage tedious household affairs at the same time. After being together for several times, it is inevitable that he will lose energy and become haggard day by day.
She looked like this, even her nephew and daughter-in-law, who often came to see her, often advised her to pay more attention to rest, but she just ignored it.
Only Jia Mu saw this and ordered her to resign as housekeeper.
Mrs. Wang had no choice but to restart Li Wan to take over as her housekeeper.
It's just that Li Wan has a kind-hearted nature, and there are many people in the Jia family who rely on the old and sell them, who cheat and cheat, and who look after others.
Seeing that Li Wan failed to take care of many things and had unclear rewards and punishments, she paid more and more attention to Li Wan, which led to delays in some matters and unclear arrangements. Mrs. Wang could only ask the housekeepers and wives to consult Wang Xifeng more.
Wang Xifeng was originally a person who was greedy for power and showed off. Seeing the situation at home, she even thought that everything would go wrong if the family left her, so she became more arrogant. Although she did not dare to take away Li Wan due to Jia Mu's order,
After all, as long as the people below came to ask her something, she would sit on the kang and explain everything clearly to them.
It wasn't until her belly swelled that she was tormented more and more, that she really abandoned the housework and hid at home to wait for the birth.
It was finally the beginning of July. Fortunately, the baby was born and the mother and daughter were safe. Everyone in the family breathed a sigh of relief for her.
Jia's mother even sent mandarin ducks to visit her every day, bringing ginseng, cinnamon, and various supplements. She was not afraid that she would not have them, but that she would not be able to eat them.
Only Wang Xifeng herself had vowed to give birth to a boy to avoid her worries, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a daughter, and she felt sad for a long time.
Unexpectedly, not long after the daughter's full-moon banquet, a letter from Jinling broke the tranquility of Jia's house again.
Xue Pan, the eldest son of Xue, was involved in a life-threatening lawsuit and wrote to Beijing for help!
When Wang Xifeng heard that something had happened at her aunt's house, she could not sit still, so she quickly came to see Mrs. Wang for discussion, asking what the reason was.
"I heard that they were competing for an actor, and they got into a fight when they disagreed. Maybe the attack was not serious, and they beat the other person to death.
Human life is at stake, Pan'er is such an unlucky bastard!"
Mrs. Wang sighed, scolded her nephew for not living up to expectations, and then handed the letter to Wang Xifeng to read.
Wang Xifeng said: "I heard from the master that Jia Yucun, the man who recognized our clan relatives, was newly appointed to the Yingtian Mansion. This case happened to be tried under his case. As long as we take care of it a little, we don't have to worry about not being able to solve this case."
Case closed!”
Mrs. Wang sighed: "That's all we have to do.
I have already written to your aunt and told her to take Pan'er and Baochai to live in the capital together.
It just so happened that she had said before that she might come to Beijing this year, and now that this happened, she would definitely agree.
Their house has been unoccupied for more than ten years. It must be troublesome to clean it up. Now your uncle is not at home, so I want to bring her to live with us... You can go back and check the old lady's voice for me and see her.
Does the old man agree..."
Wang Xifeng understood the truth as soon as she heard it and said with a smile: "The old lady likes liveliness the most, and my aunt and Baochai are both good-tempered people. I don't have to worry about the old lady not agreeing. I am worried that although our house has many houses, I am afraid that
There is no suitable place for my aunt and her family to live."
"You don't have to worry about this. There is a courtyard in the northeast corner of our house. It was originally built as a retreat for the late Duke's family when he was still alive. Although the place is not big, it is quiet and enough for them to live.
There is no need to worry about the master, just wait for the old lady to nod, and you can go and clean it up."
Wang Xifeng smiled and agreed, and after talking a few words with Mrs. Wang about the life lawsuit, she went to Jia Mu's room to look for a chance to talk.
Mother Jia is indeed a lively person. She also met Aunt Xue in her early years and had a good impression of her. As soon as she heard Wang Xifeng speak, she knew that her daughter-in-law was too embarrassed to speak, so she asked Wang Xifeng to play a supporting role.
He didn't care at all, he just smiled and said: "That's good. I heard that the son my concubine gave birth to was not good, but she gave birth to a daughter. She is an excellent daughter. Her writing and appearance are all excellent, but are you serious?"
"I don't dare to vouch for this with the old lady. After all, I have only seen her when she was very young. But from what my aunt said, she is much better than me."
Jia Mu sneered and said, "Of all the women in this world, no matter where you come from, I'm afraid it's hard to find one who is as showy and unrestrained as you. Naturally, all of them are better than you."
After laughing once, the matter was settled.
Aside from others, when I heard that the Xue family’s uncle beat people to death for trivial matters, I subconsciously had a bad impression of the Xue family. Only Jia Baoyu, I only heard Jia Mu and others say that the Xue family’s daughter “looks good.”
, very proficient in writing and calligraphy." With these words, she clapped her hands happily and twisted Jia Mu, wishing that she would be picked up and shown to him tomorrow!
Less than two months passed in this way, and the Xue family arrived in Beijing as promised. They were welcomed by Hefu, which was naturally very lively.
Only Wang Xifeng was always happy and disappointed.
I was worried about Jia Lian, but also suffered from the long distance to the border and the inconvenience of writing letters. I couldn't understand Jia Lian's current situation, so I was inevitably worried every day.
As the saying goes, she thinks every day and dreams every night. For several nights, she dreamed of Jia Lian fighting the Tatar army. How could he be the opponent of those ferocious barbarians despite his delicate appearance? She was so frightened when she saw him bleeding on the battlefield soon.
She screamed in her dream, and if Ping'er hadn't called out to comfort her, she would have fallen ill.
Maybe she was afraid of something happening, but the news coming back from the border almost scared Wang Xifeng half to death.
Many Tatar tribes took advantage of the winter to cross the border to grab food, money, and women. They had many fierce battles with the soldiers stationed on the border. Each side had its own victory or defeat...
Wang Xifeng could not sit still. Regardless of the consolation from Mrs. Wang and others, she tried every means to find out about Jia Lian's situation.
It's just that she is a woman and does not have a noble status. What effective channels can she have to find out about the life and death of the little fifth-grade military attachés trapped in the border?
Only then did Wang Xifeng realize that she could only call the shots in the Jia family. Once she left this three-acre land, she would be no different from an ordinary woman.
Fortunately, she was sure that her uncle Wang Ziteng was fine, and if Jia Lian came to follow him, nothing big would happen.
She could only comfort herself in her heart.
Things outside were not cleared up, but something happened to Jia She again.
Previously, I just said that I was not feeling well, but no one paid much attention to it. After all, in the winter, there were more and more illnesses. Today, if I am not feeling well, I have a fever and a cough, so I just asked the doctor to take medicine.
Unexpectedly, Jia She was different. The illness was as severe as a mountain collapse, but within a few days it was as if he was about to die.
Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Mrs.
Jia's mother came over with a cane and took a look. She saw that Jia She's face was black, his lips were blue, and he was lying on the bed trembling all over. Even when he saw her coming, he couldn't say a complete sentence. He was shocked and hurriedly asked why.
Mrs.
It was said that the master was too weak and had taken too many mercury pills.
How could the master be so convinced that he beat the quack doctor out and invited the imperial doctor to come and see..."
Jia Mu asked, "Okay, why did the table knock?"
Mrs. Xing did not dare to answer, and Jia She's aunt, concubines, etc. standing in the room were even more trembling.
After seeing it, Jia's mother roughly understood. Although she was half sick in her heart, she saw that Jia She looked so pitiful, so she couldn't help scolding him and just asked: "What did the imperial doctor say?"
"The imperial doctor initially told me something similar to what the doctor said. Seeing that the master didn't listen, he prescribed some medicine and took a look...
Who would have thought that eating it wouldn’t make you feel better at all!
I just invited Dr. Wang to come to my house yesterday. Dr. Wang also looked solemn after seeing him. Today he came again and he said..."
"What did he say? Say it quickly!" Jia Mu banged her cane.
"The Imperial Physician Wang said that the master is mentally weak and physically weak, and his five internal organs have been damaged, combined with... kidney water depletion, energy failure, and a lot of congested substances in the blood, which have poisoned the body. The only way to nourish the spirit and concentrate is
Medicines, hereby use high-quality supplements to nourish the body, and there may be room for recovery. I just ask you not to take those pills that only promote the production of energy. It is said that those pills have side effects. With the body of the old man, no matter how hard it is,
I can’t stand it anymore.”
Mrs.
