Red Mansion Jia Enhou
Chapter 319 Poor Tanchun
Yuanchun looked at Jia Zheng angrily, and Jia Zheng subconsciously shrank his neck.
"Yuan Jie Er"
Jia Zheng felt a little scared when looking at Yuanchun.
"Dad, how could you do this?"
Yuanchun spoke with cold eyes.
"Baoyu is only three years old. If it weren't for your grandmother and uncle coming in time, would you have beaten Baoyu to death like you did to your elder brother?"
Yuanchun asked coldly.
Jia Zheng looked at Yuanchun, hesitating and acting a little timid.
"How could a father beat Baoyu to death?"
"I gave him a lesson as a father."
Yuanchun looked at Jia She, as if asking him whether what Jia Zheng said was true.
Of course not. Jia Baoyu was almost suffocated by his beating. How could it be true?
If he had not discovered it early this time, as expected, this little Jia Baoyu would have died long ago.
Yuanchun took a deep breath, stood up and looked at Jia Zheng.
The silence at this time suddenly became clear, and Yuanchun took Jia Baoyu away directly.
Grandmother Jia called out to Yuanchun, but Yuanchun refused to turn her head and just left with Jia Baoyu in her arms.
Later, Yuanchun called someone to pack up Jia Baoyu's things.
Jia Zheng wanted to stop it, but when he thought of Yuanchun's appearance in the morning, he didn't dare to offend her and could only sit there alone, looking a little tired.
After hearing the news, Aunt Zhao came over excitedly to comfort them.
Since she had a criminal record, Jia Zheng didn't buy it at all and simply had someone block her at the door.
"I'm here to see the master, why won't you let me in?"
Two servants, like door gods, blocked Jia Zheng's door tightly.
Aunt Zhao was extremely anxious.
A maid came out of Jia Zheng's room, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, she deliberately unbuttoned one of the buttons on her neck.
Half of the snow-white neck was revealed in front of Aunt Zhao.
Aunt Zhao instantly became jealous when she saw this.
"Shameless little bitch!"
Aunt Zhao tried to grab the maid, but the maid didn't even try to dodge and pushed Aunt Zhao in the face.
Aunt Zhao was unsteady and almost fell down.
Fortunately, the maid behind her supported her, and Aunt Zhao looked on in disbelief.
The maid stood with her hands on her hips, her face full of arrogance and disdain.
"This family is not run by your Aunt Zhao, and it is not up to you to decide who comes out of the master's room."
The maid buttoned her neck slowly and steadily, and the red that was inadvertently revealed told Aunt Zhao something.
Aunt Zhao's face was frighteningly dark.
"Hu Meizi!"
Aunt Zhao rushed over and slapped the maid in the face.
There was a flash of disbelief in the maid's eyes.
"I call you my aunt, but you really think you are a thing."
The maid, who had always been at odds with Aunt Zhao, started to curse at her.
Aunt Zhao is not a vegetarian either.
"The Maid with a Bad Mouth"
Aunt Zhao cursed and rushed towards the maid.
The two men fought each other, either pulling each other's hair or tearing each other's clothes.
The two servants at the door followed closely in to look for Jia Zheng; they could not stop him.
Jia Zheng hid in the house and didn't want to go out.
After a while, the maid was ridden on and beaten by Aunt Zhao because of her young age.
The maid was still not convinced by this.
The noise outside was getting louder and louder, and the two servants were becoming extremely anxious.
"Master, please go out and stop them. If you don't stop them, someone will die."
Jia Zheng remained silent.
Aunt Zhao's sharp voice came in.
"Bitch, where do you get the guts to mess with me?"
The maid glared at Aunt Zhao fiercely.
"Isn't this family run by my aunt? How dare she bully me like this?"
"If you really take charge, will we still be able to survive?"
"Bitch girl!"
Aunt Zhao's hand hit him again.
However, before Aunt Zhao's hand fell completely.
The maid sent by Lady Jia arrived. She glanced at the mess in front of the door and her eyes fell on the two people standing above and below.
A cold look flashed across the old woman's eyes.
"Auntie is really in a good mood, fighting in front of a man's door in broad daylight."
Aunt Zhao stood up from the maid with a gloomy face.
The maid who also got up began to cry in front of the old woman.
"Mammy, please make the decision for me!"
The crying maid knelt down, and the old woman glanced at her indifferently, with no emotion visible in her eyes.
"You are already a concubine, why are you crying to an old woman like me?"
The maid's crying became louder again.
Disgust flashed in the old woman's eyes, and she walked around the kneeling maid and entered Jia Zheng's room.
Jia Zheng was holding his head on the table at this moment.
The old woman frowned, bowed to Jia Zheng, spoke frankly, and gave Lady Jia's order.
"Second Master, the old lady asked you to pack up your things and move to the small brothel!"
The old woman looked at Jia Zheng silently.
Jia Zheng became unbelievable at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"I'm moving to a small brothel. How can that small brothel have enough space for me to live in?"
"This woman doesn't care, it's the old lady's order!"
The old woman said this and turned and left.
After a while, Grandmother Jia sent someone to help Jia Zheng move things.
Seeing this group of people, anger flashed in Jia Zheng's eyes, and he rushed straight to find Jia's mother.
Grandmother Jia refused to see him and asked the maid to pass on the message.
The old woman who came out saw the angry Jia Zheng, opened her dead eyes and spoke, conveying what Grandmother Jia said.
"If the Second Master is dissatisfied, he can move out!"
After delivering the message, the old woman turned and went into the yard.
Jia Zheng was left alone outside going crazy.
In the end, he had no choice but to move to a small box house.
When they arrived at the small brothel, the spaciousness that Jia Zheng had previously enjoyed in Jia Baoyu's room was gone.
There were four small rooms in the small brothel, one for Aunt Zhao and one for Aunt Zhou.
Tanchun had one room, and the remaining room was occupied by Jia Zheng's recently favored maid.
Looking at the closed room, Jia Zheng felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart.
Even when all his wives and concubines came over, Jia Zheng still did not look happy.
Aunt Zhao hugged Tanchun and comforted Jia Zheng.
Jia Zheng remained silent, and finally his eyes fell on little Tanchun.
Little Tanchun hid in Aunt Zhao's arms with some fear. Aunt Zhao, who was always patriarchal, felt instantly dissatisfied when she saw little Tanchun's appearance.
"Master, do you want to see Tanchun?"
Aunt Zhao ignored little Tanchun's fear and stuffed Tanchun into Jia Zheng's arms.
Tanchun burst into tears.
Jia Zheng's brows were tightly furrowed.
Aunt Zhao glared at Tanchun with a fierce look in her eyes.
Tanchun stopped crying instantly.
"Master, please don't be offended. This girl just likes to cry. It's not that she hates or is afraid of you!"
Tanchun began to tremble, and Jia Zheng looked up at Aunt Zhao.
There was embarrassment in Aunt Zhao's eyes, and she began to curse little Tanchun in her heart.
"Take it away!"
Aunt Zhao quickly took little Tanchun from Jia Zheng's arms.
"Zhao, you should live with Zhou from now on. As for Tanchun."
Jia Zheng looked at little Tanchun and took a deep breath.
"There are only four small rooms in this yard. From now on, Tanchun will be sent to Yuanchun's place so that they can keep each other company."
Jia Zheng wants to send Tanchun away.
Aunt Zhao looked at Jia Zheng in shock. She had a grudge with Yuanchun before, and now sending Tanchun to Yuanchun's yard was like sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth.
"Master, no!"
Aunt Zhao hugged Tanchun tighter.
Although she favors boys over girls, it doesn't mean she really doesn't care.
Now she only has one daughter, Tanchun. Even though she hates that she is not a boy, she doesn't want anything to happen to her.
What's more, she still needs her now, and she must not let anything happen to Tanchun.
But how could Jia Zheng care about what an aunt thought?
"Send her to Yuanchun's place. At least Tanchun will live comfortably."
"You want her to suffer in this small yard with you?"
Jia Zheng glanced at Aunt Zhao with a faint look. Aunt Zhao suddenly felt her heart tighten and she hugged Tanchun a little tighter.
"Send it quickly!"
Jia Zheng no longer gave Aunt Zhao a chance to speak.
At a command, the servants began to snatch the child from Aunt Zhao's arms.
Aunt Zhao began to cry and held Tanchun tightly.
Tanchun was also sobbing out of fear, but because of the look in Aunt Zhao's eyes, she didn't dare to make too much noise.
I could only sob quietly.
"Master, Tanchun really can't be sent to Yuanchun!"
Aunt Zhao knelt down in front of Jia Zheng.
Tanchun was also snatched away by the servants. Jia Zheng ignored Aunt Zhao, waved his hand and asked the servants to send Tanchun to Yuanchun, and ignored Aunt Zhao at all.
Aunt Zhao's heart-breaking crying made the little maid who had just followed Jia Zheng feel sad.
This second master treated Aunt Zhao, who had given birth to his child, like this.
The little girls couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Tanchun was also sent to Yuanchun. When Yuanchun saw Tanchun, a cold look flashed in her eyes.
The maid sent by Jia Zheng was speaking nice words on the side.
"Sister Yuan, please have pity on Miss Tan and let her stay!"
Tanchun was so frightened that her whole body was twitching.
Yuanchun frowned as she looked at Tanchun.
"Where do you think I am?"
"Whoever you want to send over, you can send over?"
After hearing Yuanchun's words, the precocious Tanchun knew that she was being treated like a ball.
Tanchun became more and more frightened.
"Sister Yuan, please be kind!"
"The master has moved to a small brothel now. You should know what a small brothel looks like."
"The master had no other options, so he sent Miss Tan here."
This is just disgusting, it's disgusting to the extreme.
Mrs. Zhao wished that the siblings would die, so now she sent her daughter here. Who was she trying to disgust?
"Take it away!"
Yuanchun showed no mercy.
"Yuan Jie Er"
"I'll let you take me away!"
Yuanchun shouted and closed her eyes.
She was not the kind of person who would repay evil with kindness, so she couldn't even think of raising the child of someone who wanted to kill her and her brother.
"Hold the qin and get rid of them!"
Yuanchun turned into a woman holding a zither, and pushed the old woman fiercely.
The old woman was almost knocked to the ground, and looked at Yuanchun in disbelief, who was always known for her kindness.
"The young lady asked you to leave, didn't you hear me?"
She held the zither in front of the old woman and blocked her eyes from Yuanchun. The old woman had no choice but to stand at Yuanchun's door and ask someone to find Jia Zheng to report the news.
Jia Zheng just made a scene and had Tanchun placed at Yuanchun's door.
He just didn't believe that Yuanchun could really just ignore Tanchun.
Yuanchun was so angry.
This move is really cruel, and it really shows that Tanchun is not taken seriously.
Little Tanchun was put down by the old woman.
The old woman who wanted to leave looked at Tanchun's frail appearance and felt a little reluctant.
This is really a sin. The adults on both sides are unwilling to keep such a young child. This is harming the child.
"What should I do, miss?"
"They've left Miss Tan at our doorstep, what should we do?"
When Yuanchun heard Baoqin's words, her eyes darkened.
This is forcing her.
"Is there anyone else outside?"
"The woman sent here couldn't bear it, so she stayed outside with him."
"Don't worry if you have someone with you!"
Yuanchun closed her eyes again. She was in so much pain that she couldn't relax at all.
Half an hour later, Yuanchun asked Baoqin again.
"Has everyone left?" Baoqin looked outside and shook her head.
"Not leaving!"
"The master has always been cruel, and he takes advantage of the girl's soft heart."
"He is just wasting time, waiting for the girl to soften her heart and take the third girl in."
"Shameless!"
Yuanchun squeezed out two words from between her teeth and cursed Jia Zheng.
Baoqin looked at Yuanchun anxiously and distressedly.
She definitely couldn't let Tanchun stay, as it would be unfair to Baoyu if she did.
more importantly.
Yuanchun thought of Aunt Zhao. If Tanchun stayed there, Aunt Zhao would definitely come to visit her from time to time.
She and Aunt Zhao might not have had any hatred or grudge in the past, but now they have a deep-rooted grudge.
Not to mention the fact that Baoyu pushed her into the water and lost the child.
But identities cannot really coexist peacefully.
But that Tanchun
Yuanchun fell into deep thought.
"Does Tanchun have a good relationship with Yingchun?"
Yuanchun asked Baoqin, and Baoqin nodded.
"Yes, Miss."
"Send someone to Yingchun. If Yingchun is willing to take her in, then let Yingchun stay."
"If Yingchun doesn't want to, I will do my best."
Baoqin nodded vigorously.
"I'll go now, miss!"
He held the qin and bowed to Yuanchun before leaving.
Jia Zheng was also concerned about Yuanchun's situation.
"How's it going, did the eldest girl accept it?"
The servant shook his head at Jia Zheng.
"without!"
"Master, you should take the second girl back. There is no way the eldest girl will keep the second girl."
Even the servants could see this clearly, so why couldn't Jia Zheng understand it?
It’s not that he doesn’t understand, he knows it, but he can only stuff it in there.
Otherwise, this small yard would not be able to accommodate so many people.
"You continue to send people to check it out!"
Jia Zheng continued to give orders, it was already dark.
Dark clouds covered the sky, and Tanchun was still standing at Yuanchun's door.
The old woman looked at Tanchun with pity and asked someone for a piece of clothing for little Tanchun to put on.
The people Yuanchun sent to look for Yingchun have arrived.
At this time, Yingchun had dinner and was preparing to go to bed.
"Yingjieer!"
Yuanchun's people came to knock on Yingchun's door, shouting as they knocked. Yingchun, who had just laid down, heard the sound and opened her eyes, and the person who was on guard opened the door.
When she recognized who the person was, the maid behind the yard, the impatience on her face disappeared.
"Miss Yuan, is there something wrong? Why are you visiting my young lady so late at night?"
Looking at Yuanchun's maid, the maid frowned and asked about the situation, thinking that Yuanchun was in trouble.
Yuanchun's maid nodded slightly.
"Can I meet Miss Ying?"
The maid closed the door and went to see Yingchun.
"What happened to Sister Yuan?"
Yingchun had already sat up from the bed and asked the maid obediently.
The maid shook her head at Yingchun.
"I don't know, would you like to meet her, Miss?"
Yingchun put on her shoes and nodded.
"Since you are sent by my elder sister, I will meet you."
"Yes!"
The maid brought Yuanchun's maid in.
The maid who came in knelt down towards Yuanchun.
"Please, Sister Ying, save my sister!"
Yingchun frowned and helped the man up.
"What happened to Sister Yuan? Why didn't you come to my wife but to me?"
"My master left Miss Tan at my sister's door. Sister Ying should know the relationship between my sister and Aunt Zhao."
"My sister definitely can't leave her behind, but she can't really ignore her either."
The maid stopped talking here.
Yingchun was confused and looked at her maid.
The maid briefly whispered something in Yingchun's ear, and she probably forced the appointment on Tanchun because she had nowhere else to go.
Yingchun, who is almost five years old, also understands the complexity of this family.
"Sister Yuan, can't you keep Tanchun here?"
Yingchun asked the maid innocently, and Yuanchun's maid showed a bitter smile.
How could she keep him like that? What if Aunt Zhao plotted against someone and turned the tables on her? How would her young lady bear it?
"Please be kind, Sister Ying, and let my girl stay here!"
Yingchun frowned tightly, she was considering whether Tanchun could take her in.
After all, the relationship between the first and second wives is not close.
She also worries about what Yuanchun worries about, but she is just worrying about different people.
"Go and have a look first!"
Yingchun gave instructions to the people, then put on her clothes and went to see.
When they arrived at Yuanchun's door, there stood Tanchun, looking pitiful, as if she had been abandoned there.
There was a maid standing next to Tanchun.
The old woman saw that Yingchun felt a little relieved and bowed to her.
Yingchun nodded to the old woman, and the old woman glanced at the little Tanchun.
"Miss Ying, I have children at home, so I'll leave first."
The old woman stayed because she was kind-hearted. Without waiting for Yingchun's consent, she ran away as if avoiding the plague god.
Tears were falling from Tanchun's eyes.
"Sister Ying!"
Yingchun's little hand touched Tanchun's head.
"Follow me in first, Tanchun!"
Little Tanchun followed Yingchun silently and entered Yuanchun's courtyard.
Looking at Tanchun's pitiful and helpless appearance, Yuanchun wiped away tears for some reason.
This is probably because of blood relationship. Even though Yuanchun hates Aunt Zhao very much, she still can't bear to be cruel to Tanchun, who is so young.
"What are you going to do, big sister?"
Yingchun and Tanchun looked up at Yuanchun.
Yuanchun didn't know how to answer. Tanchun definitely couldn't live with her.
"Sister Ying, can you take Tanchun in?"
Yingchun's eyes fell on Tanchun, who was a head shorter than her. Tanchun lowered her head and looked pitiful.
It is conceivable that if she did not take her in, Tanchun would just be treated like a ball.
but.
Yingchun was soft-hearted and couldn't say anything to refuse in front of Tanchun.
"Sister Yuan, could you please stay and visit me for a while?"
Yingchun looked at Yuanchun prayingly.
"I need my wife's consent to let her live with me. Without my wife's consent, it will be difficult."
Yuanchun's gaze fell on Tanchun behind her. Tears fell from Tanchun's eyes and she looked very pitiful.
Yuanchun pursed her lips tightly, not knowing how to respond.
"Miss."
Baoqin looked at her anxiously.
I can’t keep it. What if it’s different?
Yuanchun is also aware of this, but this is essentially asking for help.
"Stay here first!"
Yuanchun agreed as if she was deflated.
Yingchun quickly bowed to Yuanchun.
"Thank you, big sister, for taking me in."
"Tanchun."
Yingchun poked Tanchun, and Tanchun also quickly bowed.
"Baoqin, clean up the west wing first and let Miss Tan stay there for a while!"
Tanchun could finally rest for a moment, and Yingchun felt relieved and accompanied Tanchun to the West Chamber mentioned by Yuanchun.
Arriving at the west wing, this is where Yuanchun usually studies.
Due to the design, there is a small couch inside for taking a nap, which Baoqin prepared personally.
Tanchun followed Yingchun and silently looked at the furnishings in the house. Although they were both daughters of Jia Zheng, Tanchun was treated far less than Yuanchun.
It was just the west wing of the small study, but it was actually bigger than the small cottage where she and Aunt Zhao lived.
After packing up and leaving, Yingchun's little hand touched Tanchun's head again.
"Sister, please stay here for one night. Sister Yuan also has her own frustrations."
"Don't blame her"
Tanchun nodded obediently.
"I know, Sister Ying"
Tanchun knew the relationship between her mother and Yuanchun in front of her. Aunt Zhao was in the room and she often scolded Yuanchun and Jia Baoyu in front of her.
Since there is a grudge, it is normal not to want to keep her.
Yingchun coaxed Tanchun to bed and was about to leave. Tanchun cried and grabbed Yingchun's sleeve.
"Sister Ying, I really have nowhere to go, can you please not leave?"
Tanchun, who was afraid that Yingchun would leave and not come back to pick her up, held Yingchun back.
Yingchun felt the small hand at the corner of her clothes, and an adult expression appeared on her little face.
"How can I sleep if I don't go back?"
"Sister, stay here with me!"
Tanchun sat up with the help of Yingchun, looking at the poor and weak Tanchun in front of her.
Yingchun really didn't know how to refuse, so she just slept with Tanchun.
Yuanchun asked Baoqin who had returned about the situation.
Baoqin reported.
"So, Yingchun is staying here?"
Baoqin nodded.
"Okay, let's all take a break!"
"Yes!"
After Baoqin left, Yuanchun began to toss and turn on her bed.
On one side, there is blood mingling with water, and on the other side, there is mortal enmity.
How to deal with this matter?
Early the next morning, Yingchun got up early, took Tanchun back to her own courtyard, and then took Tanchun to find Mrs. Xing.
Mrs. Xing had just gotten up at this time, and when she got up, she saw Yingchun with Tanchun.
"Mrs!"
Yingchun approached Mrs. Xing cautiously.
Mrs. Xing had already learned the situation from Yingchun, and her face looked very bad at this time.
Tanchun felt even more uncomfortable living under someone else's roof.
Mrs. Xing asked Yingchun to take the person back to her own courtyard first.
Yingchun knew that Mrs. Xing had something to say, so she took Tanchun away.
As soon as Tanchun left, Mrs. Xing's face became stern.
"Sister Ying, do you know the relationship between our first and second wives?"
Yingchun nodded more carefully.
"I know ma'am!"
"Do you know why we need to bring Tanchun back?"
Yingchun lowered her head and felt a little sorry for Mrs. Xing.
Mrs. Xing sighed.
"It's not that Madam, I don't want you to take Tanchun in. It's that Tanchun's situation is too special."
"Yingchun, you should know what kind of person your second uncle is."
Seeing Yingchun's soft and cute appearance, Mrs. Xing's voice softened.
"I know Tanchun is pitiful, but we can't hurt ourselves!"
Mrs. Xing pulled Yingchun aside to reason with her, and tears flowed from Yingchun's eyes.
This made Mrs. Xing even more unwilling to bear the consequences.
"Forget it, forget it. Everything will wait until the master comes back."
Mrs. Xing sighed deeply again.
Yingchun hugged Mrs. Xing's waist.
"I know my wife is the best and kindest!"
Mrs. Xing tapped Yingchun on the forehead.
"You know I have a kind heart, yet you still bring me all this trouble."
Yingchun's face was filled with apology.
"I know I was wrong, ma'am."
"But visit my sister"
Yingchun didn't know what to say, because she knew one thing: one should not cause trouble to others just because of kindness.
This time is an exception. (End of this chapter)
