Mrs. Wang was stunned. When she came to her senses, she felt that half her life's hopes and plans had suddenly disappeared. For a moment, her daughter's voice and smile before she entered the palace were in her mind. Her eyes suddenly opened and she fainted.
Jia Lian has been trapped in the family for such a long time. Even if he doesn't want to see anyone, he still has to go out and find a way to find out. This empress is the hope of the family. Jia Zheng is still in office, and Jia She doesn't even have anyone to discuss with.
, he could only let Jia Lian run away first. He and Jia Zhen were waiting at home.
You frowned and sat next to Wang Xifeng and asked: "Old lady, let's see what we say."
Wang Xifeng was in a trance. Sure enough, Lin Yutong's words were true. This didn't happen in a blink of an eye. She didn't have time to be sad now, she just thought about how to send the two children away first.
After hearing Youshi's question, he said, "Can such a big thing be kept hidden?"
Youshi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Wan. Li Wan frowned and said, "I'm afraid that the old lady has some bad intentions. What's wrong with that?"
Wang Xifeng shook her head, "No one can bear it."
Youshi wanted to speak, but when she saw Xiaohong coming in a hurry, she saluted and said, "Grandma, go and see my brother. He just keeps crying. What should I do?"
Wang Xifeng immediately stood up and said, "You guys can discuss it. The child cannot be separated from anyone else." After saying that, he turned around and left like the wind.
After walking out of the door, Wang Xifeng asked Xiaohong in a low voice, "Brother Gui, are you okay?"
"It's okay!" Xiao Hong said: "Now that it's like this, grandma should make the final arrangements."
"I know." Wang Xifeng responded. Nowadays, except for the commonly used jewelry and clothes, the house has been moved cleanly. The ornaments have also been replaced with real ones and fake ones brought in to show off.
On the other side, just as Wang Xifeng expected, how could such a big thing be hidden? After Jia Mu heard about it, she immediately covered her heart and fell down. Jia Baoyu just watched Jia Mu cry and screamed aside
Xue Baochai was extremely irritable. Something happened at home and a man couldn't find a way to go out to take care of things. Why cry? What's the use of crying.
There was no news about what happened in the palace, but Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang fell first. Everyone was confused and couldn't find anyone who could make up their mind, so they all came to invite Wang Xifeng.
Wang Xifeng said: "Something happened to the empress, and nothing can happen to the old lady again. I was wondering if I could try to celebrate."
Mrs. Xing said: "This also makes..."
"It's better to arrange the second sister's marriage and Baoyu's marriage at the same time. It's simpler, and now we don't have to worry about much." Wang Xifeng suggested.
After hearing this, Jia She agreed first. Now having a decent son-in-law is a guarantee.
When Wang Xifeng saw the answer, she was not polite. She picked things from the warehouse, whether they were silks, medicinal materials, spices, or furniture ornaments. Even if only bulky ones were left, as long as the materials were good, she would not mind it. She also started from the old age.
The wife has taken money from her treasury. Now she can move out as much as she can in the name of dowry. Even if it is all given to Yingchun, it will not be a loss. In the future, the commander will make his son-in-law, for the sake of the dowry, pull
Pull yourself out, this calculation is not in vain.
Yuanyang just watched and said nothing. She thought that Wang Xifeng was in a hurry to marry Yingchun because he wanted to find a capable family to seek shelter. A richer dowry would give him the dignity to ask for help in the future.
In fact, the whole family thinks so. It’s the Spring Festival, so it’s not uncommon for them to have such thoughts.
It wasn't until the first night of the wedding that Wang Xifeng told Yingchun, "...if the empress is gone, this family will also... Now I'll find a place for you to go and settle the matter. This will save you from having to deal with something unexpected in the future, and you won't be able to escape."
If it hadn't been for this, I'm afraid my family wouldn't be able to provide you with any money for your dowry. Just keep the money and take care of yourself." Then he said to Si Qi: "I only entrust your girl to you.
.No matter what happens in the future, if you protect her, you will be protected."
Siqi was rescued once by Ping'er, and there was no mercy. He swore a poisonous oath to guard the spring. Wang Xifeng then got up and left.
"I always feel that what Second Grandma said is ominous," Si Qi said after seeing Wang Xifeng off.
"No matter what the reason is, you have to leave sooner or later. As long as you can live a pure life, it's the same everywhere." Yingchun lowered her head and said.
The wedding of Yingchun and Baoyu was on the same day. I sent Yingchun out and took Xue Baochai from one courtyard to another.
These days, Jia Baoyu only stayed with Jia Mu. It was not until she was put into wedding clothes that she asked blankly: "Sister Lin's house is here."
Xiren's expression immediately changed, and he wanted to explain, but was afraid that he would cause trouble. He just said vaguely: "The bride will be here soon, Second Master, please don't delay."
Baoyu thought the bride was talking about Lin Daiyu, so he was overjoyed.
However, Xiren took advantage of the opportunity and went to find Yuanyang and told him what had just happened. "I'm afraid that the little ancestor will cause trouble when he comes to worship, but it's not a good idea."
Yuanyang stamped his feet and said, "Just go and I'll make arrangements."
Xiren was still convinced by Yuanyang. She said she could arrange it, so nothing big would happen. Yuanyang asked Chunxian to come over, and then took her to the courtyard where the Xue family lived.
"Miss Bao, please support me today." Yuanyang said with a smile.
Ying'er refused to accept it, why should she ask others to support her on her big day?
Xue Baochai understood immediately. Fortunately, she had always been restrained and responded with a calm expression on her face. Who didn't know that Chunxian had served Lin Daiyu in the first two years. It was just that he was not as considerate as Zijuan.
The reason for such an arrangement is self-evident. How can I not feel aggrieved? After all, I am only a human being, not a saint. This is a major event in a person's life, and the result is so disturbing.
Yuanyang doesn't care about everything anymore. As long as the marriage goes smoothly and the old lady gets better, nothing else matters.
Jia Baoyu couldn't help but smile when she saw that it was Chunxian who was supporting the bride. Looking at the figure, they didn't look much alike, but after all, she hadn't seen Sister Lin for a long time. The girl's parents had grown up, so she was a little different.
Yes. Don't be rash and make your sister unhappy.
It wasn't until he entered the bridal chamber and lifted his hijab that Jia Baoyu was stunned. Isn't this Sister Bao? Why didn't he see Sister Lin?
"Why is sister here?" Jia Baoyu asked blankly.
"If I'm not here, where can I go?" Xue Baochai's face turned red, looking a little shy.
Baoyu was stunned by this expression. He was still thinking of asking, but he couldn't see enough no matter how hard he looked.
Baoyu was no stranger to matters between men and women. Thinking of seeing Xue Baochai's wrist before, she regretted not being able to touch it. Now that she was in front of him, she couldn't bear it.
The two were very friendly all night, which made Xi and Sheyue who were guarding outside the door feel relieved, but also felt jealous.
Early the next morning, Baoyu was in a good mood and helped Xue Baochai draw her eyebrows. The two of them wanted to say hello to Jia Mu. As soon as they went out, they saw that the hibiscus that had withered in the yard had bloomed overnight.
.The end is strange.
Jia Baoyu said blankly: "Is this Qingwen and Bihen back?"
It was a meaningless sentence that made everyone feel uncomfortable.
Xiaohong followed Wang Xifeng's order and came to invite the new couple. She heard these words just after entering the yard. She thought to herself: Qingwen is living a good life now. What kind of tricks are you doing to scare people?
He walked over and said with a smile: "You can see that the grass and trees are alive. This is a congratulation to Mr. Bao and his wife. Another good news is that the old lady and the madam are both awake. I asked the doctor to take a look. It's okay for the time being."
In fact, the wife is fine, but the old lady's body is not as good as before.
Baoyu was indeed overjoyed. Xue Baochai also felt that he had a good omen as soon as he entered the house, and his life in this house would be easier in the future.
When the new daughter-in-law enters the house, she has to acknowledge her relatives and serve tea. For Xue Baochai, this is a formality. She basically grew up in Jia's family, and there is something she doesn't know and is not familiar with.
Mother Jia looked at the newlyweds, finally smiled, and asked someone to give them a meeting gift. Mrs. Wang was even more pleased. She gave birth to three children in her life, and the eldest son and daughter both passed away before her. Now she is left behind
Isn’t this one a treasure?
Just as they were about to make arrangements and set up the banquet, the whole family was bustling with excitement, and the sound of rushing footsteps came from outside.
It turns out that Jia Zheng committed a crime while in office and is now being locked up in Beijing.
Jia Mu held on and ordered: "Go to the Lin family, go to the Lin family, and ask Uncle Lin."
Everyone couldn't help but cast their eyes on Wang Xifeng. She was the only one who could enter the Lin family now.
Wang Xifeng was thinking about how to take the child out. This time she did not hesitate and agreed immediately.
When Lin Yutong saw Wang Xifeng holding Qiaojie and holding Jia Gui, she knew that she was here to take care of an orphan. She sighed and said: "You can keep Xiaohong. Just don't worry about the child being here. My Lin family has only a few heirs, so I don't care if there are too many."
Raise two children.”
After all, Jia Min is Lin Ruhai's first wife. It would be too cold-blooded if she didn't express it at all. But she knew that the matter was difficult and she still left two children behind. That's another story.
Even if the emperor knew about it, he would only say that Lin Ruhai was in serious trouble. Besides, the two children, one a little girl and the other a baby, were childish and innocent.
If you stay, it won't hinder anything.
Wang Xifeng immediately knelt down, and Lin Yutong could not stop her.
Wang Xifeng said: "After seeing the outcome of the Zhen family, I feel unsure. If it were really me... I would ask my sister to watch these two children grow up."
Lin Yutong knew that when people face the fear of the unknown, they will always amplify this fear infinitely. It is inappropriate to say anything at this time. She only nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, as long as I am here, the two children will be safe.
"
Wang Xifeng hugged the two children. Sister Qiao was already sensible and had realized something. She just pulled Wang Xifeng's sleeve and said, "Mom, don't let me go."
No matter how strong a person is, she cannot bear this. Wang Xifeng only glanced at Xiaohong, who nodded and said she would take good care of her. Wang Xifeng did not dare to look back and walked out.
Lin Yutong reassured: "It's okay. I'm just staying with my cousin for a few days as a visiting relative. I'll pick you up when I'm done with my family affairs." After saying that, he took him to Lin Daiyu's yard in person. She was more caring about her children than herself.
patience.
When Lin Daiyu saw this, she still didn't understand something in her heart. "When I was a child, I took refuge in my maternal grandfather's family. Now, I can be considered as repaying this kindness."
Lin Yutong asked someone to clean up the yard again, and then said to Xiaohong: "As long as you live with peace of mind, the situation may not be too bad."
Xiaohong is very grateful. If the Lin family hadn't been willing to lend a hand, not to mention grandma and brothers and sisters, they are our own family. It would not be easy to escape easily. They would have to be separated from each other and sold to a shameful place.
go.
The house was in chaos, and no one else but Ping'er noticed Wang Xifeng's actions.
"Grandma, this is..." Ping'er was a little surprised.
"Don't say anything, it's just to be prepared. One disaster after another makes me feel uneasy." Wang Xifeng said perfunctorily.
"That's fine, my house is a mess, so I won't let anyone rush into it." Ping'er nodded understandingly.
The master and servant were talking here when they saw Zhou Rui's family hurried in, "My wife asked Mistress Lian to come over, and Ping'er will go too."
Wang Xifeng smiled self-deprecatingly, now Baoyu is married and has Second Grandma Bao. People have begun to call Xue Baochai Second Grandma, and she has become Second Grandma Lian. Regardless of the difference in one word, it can only show that in everyone's hearts
, who is the primary and who is secondary.
"I changed my clothes and went over. I was about to tell my wife about the master's matter," Wang Xifeng said.
"Okay, I heard about it, but now something happened, and my wife is very upset." Zhou Rui's family said: "The eldest son of the Xue family has been arrested by the Ministry of Punishment. For some reason, there is also trouble over at Tiexuan Temple.
Don't say any unpleasant things..."
Wang Xifeng paused and thought: Sure enough, the wall fell and everyone pushed it.
Wang Xifeng didn't care about the quarrel between Aunt Xue and Xia Jingui, and couldn't care about it. She just deserved it for the shameful things she did.
When he rushed to the old lady's yard, he saw Miaoyu visiting inside. Wang Xifeng was a little annoyed and whispered to Ping'er: "Send someone soon to send Miaoyu away. Sooner or later, if you stay in this messy home,
Disaster."
Ping'er nodded in agreement. Wang Xifeng whispered again, "Let's find a clean place." She just did one good deed for the day. Hope God has eyes to protect her child.
After that, Ping'er sent his mother-in-law to force Miaoyu to Huangjue Temple. Huangjue Temple was a place where the female relatives of wealthy families in the capital who had made mistakes practiced. It was the most strict and it was impossible for anything bad to happen. However,
At one point, as long as no one comes to pick him up, he has to stay inside. He is not free at all. Even his belongings have to be handed over to the temple for safekeeping. He must grow his own vegetables and cook his own food, and don't expect anyone to take care of him. Later, Lin Yutong heard about this
I still find it quite funny in my heart. I don’t know if working hard in it can wear away Miaoyu’s mortal heart. But no matter what, it’s probably better than her original ending.
The affairs of the Jia family are now directed at Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng and others. But even when disaster comes, they cannot stop it.
The night before, Wen Tianfang sent a message saying that he would be responsible for searching the house. He asked Lin Yutong if he had anything to explain.
Lin Yutong was grateful for his consideration. Seeing the concern on Lin Daiyu's face, he told the visitor: "Just do what you need to do. Just take care of the female family members. Don't let others rush into you."
Early the next morning, a group of people surrounded the Jia family's house. They gathered the masters together and the servants together.
The women were all in the old lady's house, and the men could only stay outside. They were all too frightened to stand.
When they saw Wen Tianfang coming in from outside, the whole family was slightly relieved. No matter what the crime was, at least it shouldn't be punished much.
Aunt Xue took Xue Baochai's hand and said, "Let's go home. Your brother is dead. What should I do if you go in again and leave me alone?"
Xue Baochai was also bitter. How could she not regret it now? If she could delay it for a few more months, it would still be too late.
"Mom, please go back. Ask the shopkeeper in the shop to ask for news about my brother. Now, there is nowhere I can go if I want." Xue Baochai pushed Aunt Xue, "Maybe I have to point at mom."
Aunt Xue glanced at Mrs. Wang, twitched the corners of her mouth but said nothing, and left. People outside asked for her identity and did not stop her.
Li Wan suddenly said: "Why don't you see Sister Qiao and Brother Gui?"
Everyone then couldn't help but turn their attention to Wang Xifeng, and sure enough they saw her sitting alone, unhurried. Apparently, she had sent the child away in advance.
Could it be that she knew the news in advance.
Mother Jia's face suddenly darkened and she asked, "Girl Feng! What's going on?"
"Who knows how many of this family will survive. My two children stayed with the Lin family just because Sister Lin liked it. They don't want to escape this disaster. The old lady shouldn't be happy. No matter what happens to our family in the future,
Finally, a root is left. Why are you so angry?" Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Mu and asked.
Jia Mu choked up and said, "If you had informed me earlier, it would have been easier for me to make arrangements."
"What arrangements should we make? The two children are not sensible, and people are childish and don't care about it. How can Baoyu, a grown man, not make arrangements for the old lady?" Wang Xifeng felt panicked and said bluntly.
This is also true. It is a huge favor for the Lin family to arrange for their two children in advance.
The quarrel inside could not be heard outside. Jia Lian felt relieved and looked at Wen Tianfang with gratitude in his eyes.
But Li Wan fell in love with Wang Xifeng, "Why is her aunt so cruel? I don't want to think about Lan'er..."
Wang Xifeng sneered and said: "I think your brain has been muddied by lard. You are a chaste woman, and Lan'er is young. You have never done anything that violates the king's law. What are you afraid of?"
As soon as these words were said, all the female relatives in the room breathed a sigh of relief. After hearing this, Mrs. Wang's face turned pale. No one else had ever done anything illegal, but she had done it.
Wen Tianfang locked up all the men, then stood outside and said to Jia Mu: "Old lady, don't panic, a rough lady from the Yamen will come in soon and take you to the east of the city."
Ping'er took a look through the crack in the window and said, "It's Jing Haibo, the eldest uncle of the Lin family. Asking the mother-in-law to come and get someone is a way of giving us dignity."
Wang Xifeng said: "Didn't you hear? They asked us to go to the cell in the east of the city. The commander of the east city is our second uncle. Don't worry, old lady, the Lin family's uncle is willing to take care of it. It's on the territory of the second uncle. At least we can't eat it.
Big loss."
What Wen Tianfang didn't say was that this arrangement was limited to female relatives. He was not so polite to the men of the Jia family. (. )
