57 Mrs. Xing also wants to fight for power today
After Baoyu scolded them for being stupid, he felt that it was outrageous to let the girls do nothing all day long. There were so many people with so much free time, so let's study!
So Baoyu not only became Daiyu's close friend, but besides attending the private school, he also worked part-time and led the girls to take turns reading.
It was only at Mrs. Wang's insistence that Baoyu felt so coy that she agreed to send Grandma Li to Zhuangzi. But everyone knew that this trip was called a pension, but was actually under house arrest. Whoever allowed her to steal the money would have been dispersed long ago.
Once it's in the hands of everyone, it's difficult to recover it. If there's no clear outcome to this matter, and others follow suit in the future, wouldn't it be a violation of the rules?
Now that the construction period of the Grand View Garden is tightening, Wang Xifeng, who is usually strict, does not want to make a big deal about the renovation. He only hopes that the yard will be completed quickly and there will not be so many troubles again.
What's more, if this matter really comes up, she, Sister Feng, will not be able to escape the involvement. After all, one of the reasons is that she took out the cash on the account and used it for profit, which resulted in the monthly payment not being issued on time.
It also indirectly led to Grandma Li's theft.
So the ladies collectively kept silent, for fear that the news would leak into the old lady's ears.
After this operation, only Xiren, who was making a big show of catching thieves in Jiangyunxuan, was harmed.
Originally, she had even made a plan on how to drive Qingwen out, but who knew that Yunzhu was awake and produced evidence that Nanny Li had broken into the house. The wet fingerprints on the candlestick were exactly the same as those of Nanny Li.
He actually asked her to steal the chicken and lose the rice instead.
They were from a wealthy family who did things very accurately and quickly. That night, Grandma Li ordered her to be gagged and sent out of Jia's house. When Xiren heard the news, he was so angry that he almost broke his silver teeth.
As for Hongyu and the others who had their money stolen, they also felt unhappy all day long. Grandma Li was old, and she was also a nanny and half-master, so a theft would not lead to severe torture.
of.
However, after repeated questioning, even the stupid thief himself did not remember how much he had stolen. He only knew that the sum of several purses was about one or twenty taels. Both Mrs. Wang and Xiren had no choice but to appease the girls who had lost the money.
.
But Yunzhu was among them, and she didn't lose a penny. But everyone lived in the same house, so what's the point of being alone? She had to calculate her monthly money in her mind, figure out the amount of three taels of silver, and get away with it.
After putting on a complete show, Yunzhu silently boiled a pot of hawthorn maltose water in the evening, and poured out a bowl for each person to lighten the fire.
I saw everyone just entering.
There was another sigh all around.
As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly. Unexpectedly, at such a popular stall, the old lady caught wind and fell ill.
A family of filial sons and grandsons in the Jia family rushed in and out of Jia's mother's courtyard. Jia Baoyu had always been the most favored by the old lady, but now he had a job of serving soups and medicines. Even when he was ill, the old lady kept lamenting how caring his grandson was.
Mrs. Xing felt very depressed after seeing it.
I wonder if you, a grandson, also have to compete with us as our daughters-in-law for performance?
When Mrs. Xing came in from the courtyard, what she saw was Jia Baoyu followed by Qingwen, and his jade-white face was stained with dust. She quickly collected her thoughts and stepped forward and asked: "What's going on?"
, The people below are so careless in doing things, why do they want you, Mr. Er, to go see the fire yourself?"
Jia Baoyu replied a few words nonchalantly, and then Mrs. Xing entered the room together.
I just asked Qingwen to file a complaint, saying that the Xiren brothers and sisters made false prices when purchasing items, enriched their own pockets, and made a lot of money. Now they are taking the wife's monthly money, and they are even more domineering, so much so that Jia Baoyu wants to
I have to fill the gap for the little girls who lost their money, but they can't get any money back.
He was feeling angry in his heart, and all he thought about was that Xiren was his pillow, and he was used to relying on him. Because of his trust, he specially handed over the financial power in Jiangyunxuan to her, bypassing Aunt Li.
.
But looking back now, I had asked the best person in the world from Chicheng to make a show. After thinking about it carefully, I felt a little disappointed. I didn't see the proud look on Mrs. Xing's face at all.
Mother Jia’s courtyard is filled with red and colorful crabapples from all four seasons, just because the old lady said they were light in color and heavy in body, and wanted to see the bright colors.
In addition, the girls also spend three or four hours a day in front of the old lady, either doing needlework, writing poems or painting, or playing and playing, in a variety of ways to make the old lady look at the fresh breath and feel in her heart.
Only when you are happy can you recover from your illness.
"Old lady, please take the medicine carefully. You know that good medicine is bitter. My grandson has also prepared golden candied dates. Come here." When Jia Baoyu entered the house, the maid handed her a handkerchief. She straightened her appearance before carrying the medicine to the old lady.
In front of the couch, he coaxed with a smile on his face.
These words were like coaxing a child. The old lady immediately smiled and forced herself to sit up. Everyone was busy again, handing out soft pillows and supporting arms.
Seeing the old lady who was covered in sweat, Daiyu very considerately stepped forward and helped her change into a forehead wiper with embroidery of Songs and Cranes and New Year's Eve inlaid with turquoise. When Yuanyang took the replaced forehead wiper away, the old lady gasped for a while.
Angrily, he slowly said:
"Among these grandchildren, these two Yu'er are the most painful!" After saying that, Baoyu fed the soup into his mouth.
As soon as she said these words and saw this situation, the smile on Mrs. Wang's face became more real. However, Mrs. Xing was a little impatient. She waved her veil in front of everyone and said: "Old lady
We are so blessed. In the future, when our niece Lin enters the house, she will be a couple of gods and immortals, which will make people’s eyes warm."
After hearing this, the old lady felt more and more that what she said was true to her heart.
I couldn't help but look for the voice and went over. I saw that it was Mrs.
I think this is very true.
This was very painful for Mrs. Wang. She glanced at the two people with blushing faces. The girl was joking about her aunt and tilted her head in the old lady's arms. However, the boy had a worthless look on his face and kept secretly.
Looking at it, I smiled so hard that I couldn’t even see my teeth.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, but it was Zhou Rui's family who helped me to keep from losing my composure in public.
But it was difficult for her to say anything in agreement. She opened her mouth and finally said a few words about caring about the old lady's health, and then she started laughing along with everyone else.
At night, Mrs. Wang sat in the main hall angrily.
Zhou Rui's family members observed the situation and replied in a deep voice: "The eldest lady knows that you allocate monthly money to Xiren from your own private treasury. It also happened that there was a thief in Jiangyunxuan yesterday, so she sent Zixiao
Send her a message, I'm afraid this matter has already spread out of the Jia family."
"Bitch!"
Not long after Yuanchun was granted the title of concubine, it was the time when Mrs. Wang was very proud of herself. As soon as her sister-in-law, who came from a well-off family, made a move for herself, she felt increasingly depressed.
Thinking of Lin Daiyu's tattered body again, my mind raced all the while, wishing I could get up and tear everything in front of me.
"She didn't even think about it. It's not good to publicize family scandals. If this matter is brought to the outside world, even if she can get a share of the rights, how long will it last?"
Zhou Rui's family listened with their heads lowered, knowing that this incident was all caused by the second master's lax control, and knew that the wife was angry even if she was angry, so they only said: "The old lady is already in her seventies, and there will be a small banquet in the near future.
My eightieth birthday is just around the corner, so my wife is not as good as..."
As he said that, he made a gesture of taking it down.
