Jia Zhen, Uncle of the Red House

　　"You don't know, right? His family is powerful and powerful. Even if he hides his eyes and eyes and confesses to the young lady, he will have no worries for the rest of his life, and he will end up clean!"

　　"That's true. After all, our young lady is twenty-three, and she is already an old girl. How can you be selective? It would be great if she could marry her, I'm afraid they would still dislike our young lady!"

　　"I just said that the master is afraid that he wants to be worse. Letting the current prosperity of Ning Guofu not flatter, but to please the Rongguo mansion? If I were the master, I might as well send the young lady to be a concubine with Ningguo Gongye! I don't know. All of his concubines are stronger than the regular wives of ordinary big families! They will definitely not be slow to treat the young lady."

　　The two aunties drifted away.Baochai asked Ying'er, "Where did they talk about matchmaking?"

　　Ying'er said with a smile: "You must have asked the right person, and the servants heard Caiyun over there. These two maids are from the Jingzhao Mansion who have convicted Fu Shi's family. Fu Shi was originally a disciple of the second master here. There is a twenty-three-year-old girl named Fu Qiufang, who is also a beautiful girl. It is often heard that people have both talent and beauty. The girl also knows Bao Erye's temperament, and the soul also flew away. , Urgently ask them to come in and ask questions. Just ask them how the girls are doing. I heard that Fu Shizheng is asking someone to match up! It's a pity!"

　　Baochai smiled and said, "Who do you say is a pity?"

　　Ying'er replied: "Of course it's a pity for Miss Fu! Second Master Bao can only accompany you as sisters, how can you be a long-term husband and wife? Why don't you give it to our master!"

　　"Bah!" Baochai became more and more embarrassed, and said angrily: "Little hoof, who is your master? Say that again, be careful I will sell you!" Ying'er was suddenly shocked.

　　The two returned to Hengwu Garden, and Baochai couldn't calm down for some reason.

　　Sister Feng's jokes were still in his ears, and he remembered the scenes with his brother in front of him. From the first time we met, to the rockery cave that night, he was so confused that he got his hands on it, his lips and tongue were swollen all night, and he didn't know when his heart was stolen. .

　　It's just that he is too...

　　When I didn't marry her, I thought of myself as Bao'er. Once I married him, would it be really hot for three or five days, when the freshness was over, I would throw away my hands and look for a new one?

　　She was worried about gain and loss, sitting there in a daze.

　　A needle pierced the finger, and a bright red flower bloomed on the embroidery.She hurriedly put her fingers in her mouth.

　　Ying'er came over and hurriedly wrapped her up and smiled, "Girl, slaves have only heard of blood-piercing scriptures, but not blood-embroidered wedding dresses."

　　Baochai glared at her.Ying'er said again: "Miss, your slaves and servants also know what you are thinking, but you have to worry about gains and losses. In fact, it doesn't have to be like this, sir... What kind of person is Mr. Zhen, it's fine to say what the outside world says, don't we still know? He is affectionate and righteous, how can he be like Chen Shimei and Li Jia in the play? It can be seen that he is overthinking."

　　Baochai smiled and said, "What good did my brother give you? You only say good things about him all day long? Did you want to show it off when you saw Qianxue wearing a gold sweater too? If you have the face , you go to tie it too, who is stopping you?"

　　Ying'er blushed.

　　Baochai embroidered a delicate peony where the blood was dripping.Brother won't let me down!

　　"Miss Xue?" It seemed like someone was shouting in the yard.

　　Ying'er hurriedly let her in.

　　When he saw Baochai's hand embroidered with a red embroidered hijab, with mandarin ducks playing lotus patterns on it, red lotus and green leaves, and five-colored mandarin ducks, he praised: "It's really bright work. The servant heard that the old lady gave her wedding dress as a gift. I gave it to the girl, why is the girl still doing it herself?"

　　Baochai said with a smile: "Originally, the old lady gave it to me to marry the prince. Now I gave it to my brother, and it would be bad to wear that one. So I retired early in the morning, and I can do it myself!"

　　Xiren nodded, "Everyone in the garden says that the girl is lucky, isn't Mrs. Zhen the one who loves people and knows how to be cold and warm?"

　　Baochai smiled and said, "That's fine, you always have to think about it, right? Did the elder sister ask you to come?"

　　Xiren hurriedly opened a handkerchief in his hand, which contained four jade bracelets, "Our grandma specially asked the slaves to bring it here to congratulate the girl on her great joy. The grandma said that the sisters will live together in the future, and they will Don't look down on our sisters just because you are the family of the grandfather of the country."

　　Li Wan also saw that Baochai had been engaged with Uncle Zhen, so she was a little reserved, not as generous as before, so she selfishly speculated, thinking that she was because she was a concubine and not a proper wife, and she was arrogant and contemptuous. Come on, please, bring some stuff.Little did she know that Baochai didn't do this, she smiled and said, "Thank you for the stuff from my eldest sister-in-law!" He handed it to Ying'er and accepted it.

　　"I heard that the girl Suyun, who was kicked out from the eldest sister-in-law's place, is back?" Ying'er asked.

　　Xiren smiled and said: "Isn't it? A few years ago, I was driven out due to the epidemic. I heard that I was also wandering outside for a few years, but there was no result. I begged the big grandma, and the big grandma has a good heart. After all, how many years did she follow her? I didn't make any mistakes, so I begged the old lady and took her in again. I just don't know what she did, but I learned the skills of my aunt, and it's only been changed in the past few days, it's a little better. "

　　Ying'er smiled and said, "Could it be that you really went to be a concubine with someone?"

　　Xiren blushed and laughed in a low voice: "Isn't that what you said? When she entered the door, the old lady specially let the old lady see it, but she was still a girl, so she was allowed to continue to follow the eldest grandma."

　　Baochai smiled and said, "Sister-in-law now has someone else in front of you, and you are also free. Why don't you please help me embroider a few stitches? My neck is sore after sitting down for a long time."

　　Xiren took the red hijab and said with a smile, "I'm afraid the embroidery is not good and it will be damaged, girl, you can't blame me!" Seeing that the work was really cute, he couldn't help but pick up the needle and thorn in her place.

　　Baochai took another bright red robe in his hand, took out five-color woven threads, and embroidered peony needle by needle.

　　Ying'er was playing a tie next to her, and she made a heart-warming plum pattern according to the bright red, and twisted it one by one.

　　She fought for a while, and said to Xiren, "You embroidered this horn, so I'll pick it up here, so we won't be delayed."

　　Xiren jokingly said, "What are you anxious about? Are you embroidering too?"

　　Ying'er was annoyed, "What do I want this girl to do?"

　　When Xiren saw that Baochai did not speak, he smiled and said, "Tomorrow, when your girls leave the cabinet, you must accompany you, do you also want to embroider?"

　　Ying'er smiled and said, "Why don't we let our girl talk to the eldest grandma and let you follow the girl instead of me, how about you?"

　　Xiren suddenly blushed with shame, and spat: "I don't have that blessing!" He couldn't help thinking of fate's trick in his heart. The original plan finally turned into water, and he didn't know where he would be in the future?Or after two years, the old lady will be kind enough to let her go out to match the boy. If she is lucky enough to meet an old sincerity, if she meets someone who is delicious and lazy, she will be immersed in the poor juice for the rest of her life.

　　How do you compare to her?It's just the girl over there, and she's the same as Concubine Zhao!Back then, the group of sisters who grew up with me, Yuanyang didn't talk about it in front of the old lady, Pinger, Jin Chuaner, etc., all had results, but I was the only one missing.If only it could be replaced.

　　The more he thought about it, the more shy he became unbearable.

　　Bah, I'm about to die, thinking about these shameless things, although I lost my body, but I was still full of passion and never sullied.How can you not match a good family?

　　Anyway, the wife.

　　She repeatedly persuaded herself that the wife of a poor family is better than a concubine of a rich family.

　　I'm just afraid that I've been used to being rich for half my life and can't stand being poor.

　　I'm afraid that there is no way to be a concubine, Baoyu?The past is unbearable!Second Master Lian?Eyes have never been on yourself!Ring brother?Rao is Caiyun so good to him, but it didn't work!

　　I burst into tears thinking about it.

　　Baochai had also heard about Xiren and Baoyu's affairs, and it was not easy to persuade her. She only made fun of the usual jokes.

　　Not to mention what happened to Jia Mansion, the emperor in the palace was sitting alone in the side hall of Daming Palace, and the imperial doctor had just changed his medicine.

　　"How is my illness?" the emperor asked.

　　The imperial physician was still mulling over the words, and the emperor coldly shouted: "What the hell, tell me quickly!"

　　The imperial doctor was frightened and said quickly: "The emperor's dragon body is generally safe. As long as you take good care of yourself, the concubine is almost fine, but the kidney water is not good. I hope your majesty will exercise more restraint, so as not to damage the heart..."

　　"Okay!" The emperor said coldly: "If you say half a word, you know the consequences."

　　The imperial physician hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

　　"Go away!" The emperor sent the imperial physician away and sighed deeply.

　　I live in the Ninth Five-Year Period. The so-called under the whole world is not the king's land, and the coast of leading the land is not the king's ministers. His actions can make people rich and noble, and he can destroy the nine clans in an instant. Everyone looks up to me, and everyone respects me.I should have no scruples and do whatever I want, but who can know my suffering?

　　Although the Emperor Taishang has been in power for a long time, when did his shadow leave?

　　He must have hated me deeply for what happened back then.

　　I originally thought that the Emperor Taishang was going to die soon, and that I could consume him.

　　If I walk in front of him...

　　Even if I can't open the coffin and slaughter the corpse, my achievements will definitely be in vain.

　　He has been cruel and gave up countless times. After all, the Supreme Emperor is famous.

　　The emperor sighed in his heart.

　　A majestic voice resounded in the Daming Palace: "The decree is that Jiubian selects elites to be transferred to the Beijing battalion for training. Afterwards, the appointment and removal of the commander of the Beijing battalion will require Jiubian to serve for two years before it can be heard."

Chapter [-] Two places to send women to the door

　　In the Meiquan Pavilion in Huifang Garden of Ningfu, two little girls who carried water sat there to rest and chat.

　　"Sister, didn't we drill a well in our garden, so the water can flow out of the pipe by itself? Why do we still have to fetch water? It's very tiring."

　　"You're too lazy to just carry a few buckets of water? I heard from Sister Jin Chuan'er that the master likes the spring water here to make tea."

　　"Oh, so it is. Sister, also, is there something in our house that can be shaken by hand and can light up?"

　　"Didn't you see Sister Zhu'er and the others playing? The candles and oil lamps in the room are still on, just like during the day. It's just a little bit laborious, and they can't lift their hands today."

　　"Then why do I think this thing is not as convenient as a candle?"

　　"Stupid, how expensive is the candle oil? We don't have any shortage of people, and they won't catch fire."

　　"Hee hee, speaking of which, every time our master is idle in the mansion, he will always come out with something new. My sister is serving the master in the west. When I got home, I told her that she had never seen many things. I She doesn't believe that even the windows here are made of clear glass!"

　　"How can they compare to us?"

　　Both girls laughed.Once upon a time, who in the West Mansion didn't have eyes higher than the top?Now that it has been adjusted, there is no need to say more.

　　Then, the more they talked, the lower their voices became.

　　"Sister, don't you think that our wife, grandmother, aunt, and sister Jin Chuan'er are always lazy these days? You can always see them, why don't you go out for a walk now?"

　　"Bah, what are you thinking about?"

　　"I didn't think of anything?"

　　"Don't you know that wives and aunties are in a hurry to conceive?"

　　"Pregnant? But what's the matter with the girls?"

　　"Bah, those with golden sweat scarves around their waists are all the maids of the master."

　　"What is a passer-by girl? There are so many!"

　　……

　　Not to mention that the mistresses in the Ning Mansion and the big girls around them were exhausted and devastated, and they were repeatedly nourished. It was really "the spring is fading, the mood is lazy, the loneliness is raining and the clouds are scattered." One by one had to "lazy to paint their eyebrows, put on makeup and wash up." Late."

　　The culprit, Jia Zhen, was in high spirits as the director of the study at this time.There was only Xiaohong, a girl waiting by her side.Seeing that she was dozing off in front of the desk, Jia Zhen smiled and said, "Last night I was busy all night and didn't sleep much. Go and rest in the back, I don't need anyone to wait on me."

　　Xiaohong covered her mouth, yawned and couldn't keep her eyes open, "The servants will go first. If you have something to do, just call the little girls outside!" Touching the wall panel of the stool, she fell asleep on the bed.

　　Jia Zhen sighed and stepped forward to take off her shoes and socks and put on a brocade mattress.

　　When he turned around, he saw Master Luo sitting on the chair with an expressionless face.

　　Jia Zhen put her hands behind her back, raised her air and asked solemnly, "Sir, did you come back from Zhe Liu in Baqiao?"

　　Just now Master Luo stood up and said, "According to Grandpa's will, General Li of Jingying was transferred to General Soldier of Xuanfu, and the students sent him off for you this morning." He opened the book and read: "This time I give Li a gift. The total amount of silver is [-] taels. Among them, [-] taels of silver bills were handed over on the spot, [-] taels were sent to Li Zongbing's home in Shenjing, and [-] taels of silver were allocated in advance to Xuanfu, which can be cashed with the tickets. The rank ranges from one hundred taels of silver to three thousand taels, a total of [-] taels. The total of the two items is [-] taels."

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "I originally thought that Mr. Li was upright and capable, so he would reject my good intentions, so he accepted it?"

　　Master Luo said with a smile: "Master, no one dares to refuse your kindness. Especially when you go to Jiubian and various provinces, Master Luo can knock him to the dust if he makes a mistake. How dare you? Besides, Master You are so generous, [-] taels of silver are piled up like a hill, and anyone will be tempted."

　　Jia Zhen said: "This time, the Beijing battalion transferred half of the general troops, and sent six of them away one after another. There are four undecided places left. Two or three hundred thousand taels of silver have been sprinkled, which is enough money. Do you think it's worth it, sir?"

　　Master Luo read his beard habitually, "If you say that the emperor did this to disperse and disrupt your power, but when you come and go, it spreads your power to the whole world, and there is nothing for you. Harm. Right now, it's just some extraneous things, but in the future, the whole world will be harvested."　

　　Jia Zhen said: "Fortunately, I have enough things outside my body. One more thing, whether you are doing it secretly, but don't make trouble all over the city, it's not good."

　　Master Luo smiled and said, "Master, don't worry, the students have always been leak-proof in their work."
