White Moonlight is Not Easy To Do - Chapter 279
Jia Yuanchun said: “It’s all easy to do. When my mother comes home, remember that she always comes out of the family. The second sister is young. I let her a little bit, just as I love her.”
Mrs. Wang didn’t understand and felt resentful, but because Jia Yuanchun’s identity was different now, she stopped arguing.
Jia Yuanchun asked again, “Has Baoyu studied hard?”
Madam Wang said, “Baoyu is still young, and with your elder brother’s precedent, how can I force him?”
Jia Yuanchun said: “Mother is confused! Men in the family, reading is the first priority. Big brother’s business may not be reading… Back then, hey… mother should never have competed with the old lady to release people into the big brother’s house. “
Madam Wang was stunned.
It turned out that in a two-bedroom mansion like Jia Mansion, Jia Zhu Yanran became the heir to the Rong Mansion, and she was a talented student who entered school at the age of fourteen, so the mother and grandmother of the inner house wanted to entangle him. Earlier, there were some beautiful maids in his house to serve. After Li Wan married into the mansion, they each chose a beautiful maid beside them and gave them to him.
Those watery maids are no less than Qingwen. He is actually worse than Baoyu when it comes to women. Baoyu is somewhat infatuated. Baoyu is only a physical matter, not to the point of indulgence.
But Jia Zhu is like a scholar who meets a fox demon and a ghost-he is a scholar, how can he resist the temptation when the string is loosened?
Jia Zhu’s body slowly weakened, and he caught a cold after playing too much in the study, and then a severe cold lingering on the bed. When lying on the hospital bed, there were still beautiful maids who were gentle, and Li Wan herself came out to compete for favor. Although the cold was cured, the foundation was weak.
After his 14-year-old boy passed the Xiucai exam, Jia Zheng had high expectations for him, but he failed the township exam twice in a row, and Jia Zheng pushed him even harder. Finding that he was addicted to women’s lust, he beat him like Jia Baoyu, and once again lost his vitality.
Then he was forced to study hard, and his empty body was boiled dry.
Jia Yuanchun was not young at that time, and she remembered all the beautiful maids in Jia Zhu’s house.
However, Mrs. Wang felt that it was the fault of the old lady. The maid she gave was much more dignified and gentle, and she was as knowledgeable as a person. It must be the fault of the foxes given by the old lady.
Jia Yuanchun said: “Mother don’t care about Baoyu, but don’t put anyone in his room, replace it with a servant.”
Madam Wang said in shock, “The little servant is clumsy, how can I do it?”
Jia Yuanchun said: “If this goes on like this, Baoyu will be destroyed. I heard that there are several maids in Baoyu’s house…now they are women.”
Mrs. Wang said: “It’s impossible. Although Baoyu has some problems, he is just a naive child.”
Jia Yuanchun said: “Mother go back to check, don’t I know the thoughts of those maids?”
Jia Yuanchun himself wanted to climb the dragon bed as a female shi who served the royal family. How could those maids not want to be a concubine?
…
When Mrs. Wang entered the palace, she was always in a state that did not meet her psychological expectations, so she was a little unhappy on the way home. She remembered a lot of troubles. First of all, Yingchun was elevated, and she almost couldn’t take the position of the wife of the Rong mansion. Although Yingchun did not re-emphasize Mrs. Xing, she did not lack basic etiquette, so she said that the gift she brought to Mrs. Xing when she returned home was different from hers.
Although Mrs. Xing was her nominal mother, Mrs. Wang never paid attention to Mrs. Xing, and such a thing made her unhappy.
I would also like to mention the matter of the Lin family. Originally, Lin Ruhai was about to die. Thinking of the property of the Lin family, Mrs. Wang’s heart wanted to burn with a flame.
When Jia Min got married back then, she was wearing red makeup, and those dowries made her jealous. In addition, the Lin family was born in the Liehou, but the direct line was not abundant, and it was passed down through several generations. Even if the family members are not prosperous, there is also the advantage of not being prosperous.
Mrs. Wang could also think with her toes that the Lin family’s wealth must not be a small amount. It’s a pity that Lin Ruhai didn’t die. Back then, Lin Daiyu was doted on by the old lady and wanted to harm her Baoyu. At this time, she gave it to Marquis Dingbei without saying hello.
It was originally a must-have property for her, but in the future, won’t it be cheaper to go to the Duke of Dingbei?
If Lin Ruhai dies, Lian’er brings back the property of the Lin family, and it will be easier for the mother to save her relatives.
Mrs. Wang couldn’t help disgusting Lin Ruhai and Lin Daiyu even more, and only hoped that they both passed away short-lived, in order to vent the hatred that Jia’s mother always favored her aunt Jia Min.
Although Mrs. Wang is confused in big things and shrewd in small things, she still knows the difference between Jia Baoyu and Dingbeihou in her heart. Lin Daiyu was a girl that Mrs. Wang did not like to be her daughter-in-law, but Mrs. Wang always thought that the other party wanted to marry her son.
When such a little girl didn’t seem to care about her son at all, and married a man whose fame and status were countless times higher than her son’s, Mrs. Wang’s heart was like an iron kettle that was constantly being heated, and was about to spray like a steam engine. come out.
Madam Wang went to see Mother Jia after returning to the mansion. Today, Madam Wang entered the palace to see the empress. Naturally, Mother Jia was concerned.
In fact, Mother Jia was extremely dissatisfied with Yingchun, her granddaughter. She married Baoyu without helping Baoyu at all, and went to enjoy herself. She even urged Jia Lian to attack the clan in Jinling.
Mother Jia also hoped that Yuanchun could suppress Yingchun’s arrogance. After Madam Wang was seated, she asked, “Have you seen the second girl? How did you say it?”
Jia Yuanchun didn’t dare to provoke Yingchun. If she was a modern person, she would definitely think about this assumption: If she and Yingchun fell into the same river at the same time, who would the emperor save first.
– The answer is to save Yingchun.
Not only did the emperor rescue Yingchun first, but the emperor, empress dowager, empress, concubines, princesses, and princes all rescued Yingchun first.
(Yingchun said: I can swim.)
However, Jia Yuanchun did not speak to Mrs. Wang for the sake of face and the taboo of trying to figure out what he liked. He only pretended to be generous and told her not to provoke her or count on her.
Mrs. Wang would not be reconciled at this time, and said: “Niangniang knows the overall situation best. Niangniang still thinks of sisterhood, and she doesn’t want the house to be embarrassed, and rumors of sisters breaking up spread. Therefore, Niangniang didn’t have the heart to say it. “
Mother Jia was silent for a while, and then said, “It was also because I was too obsessed with welcoming the spring when I was a child that I would be so ruthless and cold.”
Mrs. Wang said, “According to the wife’s opinion, if the mother does not show up, only the old lady can control the second girl.”
Jia Mu Liangliang looked at Madam Wang, and said, “My lady doesn’t show up, but wants me to show up in person? The second child, dare my wife worry about all these things?”
Mrs. Wang said, “Excuse the old lady, but it was also the daughter-in-law who wanted to be wrong, so she asked the eldest lady to come forward. She is always the mother of others.”
Mother Jia said: “If she can do something, she can let you go to the palace to tell the empress? Their sisters have all married into the royal family. Who can have such honor? You and Niangniang have a good relationship, but Niangniang can’t resolve it, who in this manor can reluctantly take care of the Princess Yu?”
Madam Wang was dissatisfied: “Second girl is always a junior…”
Mother Jia said: “That empress is still a junior. The servants in the palace also went to the servants of the palace to inquire about it. Prince Yu will leave everything to her. He is the prince and noble, and he is only close to her. Courage, if it wasn’t for the support of Prince Yu, how could she become like this?”
Madam Wang said in shock: “The old lady is saying that Yingchun doesn’t give her concubine ‘Hexi’ because of what Prince Yu meant?”
Mother Jia said, “Maybe, maybe not.”
“My daughter-in-law is stupid and doesn’t understand.”
Mother Jia is more discerning than Madam Wang: “If it is, then only the niece will persuade Yingchun. After Yingchun returns to her heart, she will pull the lord to the Rong Mansion, and let the lord also support the niece. If not, it is Yingchun’s own intention, the lord. It’s just the son-in-law of Rongfu, is it necessary to have more heart than Rongguo’s daughter? It’s Yingchun’s meaning, the prince knows that Yingchun has been wronged. A minute to welcome the spring?”
Mrs. Wang said, “Why do you want Niangniang to accommodate the second girl?”
It’s just that Mother Jia doesn’t like to be annoying anymore, but things are clear. When people get older, their hearts will always be biased, and they don’t have such ambitions. They only like to be lively and rich.
So when Grandma Liu came, she would invite her over to speak with her. The old people like the sight of wealth and honor. On weekdays, the Rong Mansion goes downhill, and there are no useful men in the mansion. Those who are in the real rising period are unwilling to get close to the Rong Mansion. Mother Jia couldn’t get up with those people either, and showing off their wealth to them would be slapped in the face. Therefore, Mother Jia showed off her wealth to Grandma Liu, a country woman, to meet a relatively common psychological need of human beings.
The head of the Rong Mansion is Mrs. Wang. How could a female family member of a real powerful family invite her, a fifth-rank official wife, to attend the meeting? The eldest wife came from a small family. Although she had a title of general, Jia She had no real power, and no one communicated with her.
The Rong Mansion’s method is to stay at home, and only communicate with relatives such as the Ning Mansion and the four major families, and never consider the marriage of the daughter in the mansion.
This mother Jia selfishly likes her daughters to be lively around her. Anyway, she is old, and she has not lived for a few years, so she always has to live her own life; and Mrs. Wang is her own daughter entering the palace, so she is not so kind and sincere It’s a step-by-step plan for Tanchun, just save money secretly. Mrs. Xing was too busy to take care of herself, and Yingchun was not raised by her side, and her background was even less capable of making arrangements for Yingchun.
Mother Jia said, “The niangniang is not pregnant yet, and Baoyu is still young. If the niangniang can rely on more than one person, she will be more honorable in the palace. You don’t even understand this?”
But Mrs. Wang thought in her heart that she also had her elder brother, Wang Ziteng.
Madam Wang said, “So, let’s forget it?”
Mother Jia took a deep breath and said, “I’m tired, you should step back.”
After Madam Wang left, Mother Jia was also embarrassed by the situation in the mansion. Jia She and Jia Zheng are not capable people. Baoyu is a fortunate person, but he is too young. If he wants to continue his wealth, he still has to wait for Baoyu to grow up or his mother to give birth to a little prince.
Yingchun, who could have been able to use it, has separated from Rongfu, but Lin Ruhai has already started his career. Lin Ruhai was appointed to an official position, and the honor was still there, no one dared to deceive him, and he had the support of his future son-in-law, but of course his honorary title and son-in-law were more than enough for himself, but not enough to support Rong Fu and his wife. Besides, the Marquis of Dingbei and the Rong Mansion were separated by another layer, so why would you be so embarrassed to support the empress? Now he and Daiyu are not yet married, and the Rong Mansion and Hou Mansion have not officially moved.
There is no money left in the Rong Mansion, but Mrs. Wang actually has a lot of things in her private treasury. Since Jia She’s original wife passed away, she has been home for nearly 20 years. At that time, Jia Daishan also passed away not long ago. Is there anything left?
Mrs. Wang managed the accounts and found that Mother Jia had also passed away from her mother-in-law, and the accounts were tricky, and she followed suit, even more greedy than Mother Jia. She has sold a lot of antique ornaments, calligraphy and painting classics in the public, and even the farm can be converted from public to private. Because the stalls in the mansion are also getting bigger and bigger, everyone is sucking blood in the public, but no man can transfuse blood. The public school is getting more and more empty, and she is still not satisfied, so she goes to give out the money and take some lawsuits.
Over the years, Yuanchun’s entrance into the palace has also spent some of the private houses she saved, but she still has a lot. Now, for Yuan Chun and her pride, and hoping that Yuan Chun will give birth to a little prince, she reluctantly took out a private house of 200,000 taels.
This also made many people sigh at her arrogance. Madam Wang was a little empty in her heart and her face was slightly red. She modestly said that it was the accumulation of thirty years of farms and shops in her dowry. Only Mother Jia smiled, tacitly knowing that, Mother Jia also took out 50,000 taels to support Baoyu for the empress.
Rong Fu Gongzhong took out all the 20,000 taels of silver, Ning Fu gave 100,000 taels, Wang’s family 50,000 taels, Xue’s family 100,000 taels, Lin’s family was scraped 30,000 taels, plus Madam Wang’s 200,000 taels, Mother Jia owns 50,000 taels, a total of 570,000 taels. You must know that a family in the countryside only spends 22 taels a year, and 570,000 taels is also a huge sum of money.
The land is ready-made, and a three-and-a-half-mile land can be drawn between the east and west houses to build a garden. But Jia She and Jia Zheng were too lazy to let Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, Jia Rong and others handle them, leaving many things to the housekeepers such as Lai Da and the others.
