Jia Qiang's Ordinary Life

-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------

Surprisingly, Lin Daiyu's spirits improved the next day, and she even washed up and went to meet the new couple. The old lady was so frightened that she thought Lin Daiyu was being haunted, and went to the imperial doctor in a panic , Taoists.

Lin Daiyu was very calm. After showing the ceremony to everyone in the Jia family, when others were relieved, Lin Daiyu cleaned up all the things in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and went to Changcui Nunnery to accompany Miaoyu.Although he hasn't lost his hair, he has already changed into black clothes and made an oath to the ancient Buddha.Zicuckoo also voluntarily followed and continued to serve.

Rao Jia Baoyu came here to explain repeatedly that he didn't know beforehand, and kept swearing and swearing, but Lin Daiyu didn't even see his face, but let Zijuan tell him that he had walked from death to life, and he had already passed away. It is a great enlightenment, the worldly fate is all illusory, now the injustice of the past life has been settled, the fate has been broken, and it cannot be forced.Jia Baoyu stayed at the gate of Changcui nunnery almost until the third watch in a daze, when the furious Mrs. Wang forcibly took him back to Yihong Courtyard and reprimanded him severely.

Mrs. Wang cursed Lin Daiyu fiercely behind her back, why didn't she die, and now she still has to hook Baoyu to make things difficult for herself.On the other hand, the old lady was really guilty of this granddaughter, and after maddening Mrs. Wang, she immediately issued an order, saying that Lin Daiyu would lead her to practice in the nunnery and pray for her relatives, and all the supplies would come from the old lady. Everyone in the Jia family is not allowed to embarrass the account, if anyone disturbs, it will be embarrassing for the old lady.

Jia Baoyu cried a lot, but in the end, he still failed to go against his mother's wishes and accepted Xue Baochai as his wife to spend his whole life with him. However, since Jia Baoyu had a knot in his heart, he no longer had the tenderness towards Xue Baochai. Thoughtful, although with his temperament, he can't speak ill of each other, but he still didn't save much face for her. Not long after they got married, he turned Xiren's face away and promoted him to be his aunt.

Mrs. Wang was so happy that there was an attacker who was devoted to her. In this way, Xue Baochai would not be able to hold Baoyu anymore. What she was afraid of was that her son married a wife and forgot his mother!As for Aunt Xue, what else can she say? Her daughter is already a member of the family. However, after all, the Xue family still has to rely on the Jia family for a lot of time. .In desperation, Aunt Xue had no choice but to comfort Baochai, and was ridiculed by her own daughter-in-law in turn, almost making her sick from anger.

Jia Qiang and his wife were just feeling sad for a while, and they had to live on as usual.After all, Lin Daiyu finally let go of that relationship that could almost be regarded as an evil relationship. Even though she became a monk, she still leads the cultivation practice after all, so she can still return to vulgarity in the future!Although Jia Qiang had no hope for this, it was better than death.Alive, there is always hope.

Xue Baochai's life was not easy when she got married. After she officially took over the housekeeper's affairs, she felt that it was not easy to do. Although she had also managed the house with Tanchun and Li Wan before, at that time, she was just an assistant Li Wan didn't say a word anyway, Tanchun was dedicated to offending people, and she was just being a good person on the sidelines, she didn't need to pay the money, she just needed to distribute it, but it was impossible for her to know the real family background of the Jia family very clearly of.

But now, she understood Wang Xifeng's situation back then.

There is no money in the public account at all, and it is only halfway through the year, and the rent paid last year and the income from the shop have almost been spent. Looking at the expenses, she almost wants to give up.Just for the old lady, it costs about ten taels a day just to eat and drink. The old lady always likes extravagance, such as spices in the house, charcoal in winter, ice in summer, and all kinds of fresh food. Fruits, plus the distribution of clothes for each season, and the monthly money of the maid, can be dragged to other places, but not to the old lady.When Wang Xifeng was in charge of the house, she had a good relationship with Yuanyang. If something went wrong, Yuanyang helped to make things right. However, the relationship between Yuanyang and Xue Baochai was normal. She and the old lady had always been of the same mind, and they liked Daiyu and Xiangyun more.

Then, Jia Baoyu's Yihong Courtyard was the one that cost the most. Although a few of them were kicked out, they made up for it later on.

Needless to say, the second wife, the decent parents-in-law can't bear the charge of unfilial piety for this.Even though Jia She of the big house doesn't like the old lady, he is still Xijue's parent after all, and Mrs. Xing is always bitter and mean. If there is something missing, she will yell so that no one will have a good time.

Jia Lian and his wife are not easy to bully. Wang Xifeng has been a housekeeper for many years, and her power is still there.

The rest is the sisters in the Grand View Garden. Tanchun and Xichun didn't spend much money at first, five liang of silver a month, including the money for rouge and gouache. Small families can't compare.Li Wan is the elder sister-in-law, with Jia Lan, the eldest grandson of the Rongguo Mansion, and a chaste widow, no matter what, she cannot be wronged.

The only ones who are easy to bully are Aunt Zhao, mother and son, Aunt Zhou and the others, but even if you starve them to death, how much money can you save?

Just a month after taking over the butler, Baochai felt exhausted and had to reduce some kitchen items first, for example, turning some meat dishes into half meat and half vegetarian dishes, and then reducing one or two dishes slightly, and so on. , just don't hit the eye.After listening to Aunt Xue's idea, she said that Wang Xifeng used the money from the public account to lend usury outside in order to make money, so she also gritted her teeth and took out the money from her private house as a dowry, and started to lend money outside.Such a reluctant support, but not many people appreciate it.Mrs. Wang thinks this is the right thing to do. After all, Wang Xifeng made up most of her dowry back then!As for Jia Baoyu, apart from occasionally sharing the bed with Xue Baochai in a coping manner, he still hangs out with the maids in the garden for the rest of the time, especially Xiren who is gentle and considerate, always flattering, and often addicted to Xiren. people's room.

Although Xue Baochai was bitter, there was no other way, especially since her heart had been firmly attached to Jia Baoyu for a long time, she could only think of ways to attract Jia Baoyu's attention, and she hated Lin Daiyu secretly in her heart. After death, Jia Baoyu naturally has no hope, so he can live a good life with himself.

Just when Ning'er started to eat some rice cereal and fruit puree besides drinking milk, news came from the palace that Concubine Xiande was seriously ill.

Yuan Chunyuan's temperament is not very good, and he always wants to fight for favor, so that there will be another prince to come out and support him.So, after recuperating for less than two months, I felt that it was almost done, so I started to make contacts everywhere again, planning to be favored again.It's a pity that before the emperor's arrival, he fell ill again.This time, the condition can be said to be menacing, and the imperial doctors are also uncertain.

Fortunately, at this time, the emperor already felt that Yuan Chun had little room to use, so he didn't pay much attention to it.The imperial doctor just came and walked through the motions, took a pulse, opened it for a while, and he could not kill the person, but he couldn't cure the disease. He also came out with a prescription that seemed so mysterious. Yuanchun took it for half a month. As if soaked in bitter medicine, his condition did not improve at all, but became more haggard, almost dying.

The last days of Yuanchun have been spent in the inner hall of Fengzao Palace. After the imperial physician arrived, he refused to come. Except for Baoqin, the rest of the court ladies and eunuchs were all obedient, and Fengzao Palace had few daily duties. When she got down, she couldn't even compare to the nobles who had just entered the palace, Yuan Chun had nothing to do except threaten a few words, and when she got better and was favored again, she had nothing to do.Fengzao Palace seemed to be forgotten by everyone, and finally, Yuan Chun died silently on a cold night.And Baoqin also died. The official statement is that he was buried voluntarily, but no one knows the real situation, or dare not think about it.

Yuanchun's death, the emperor gave the Jia family a lot of face, and the funeral was held in the utmost mourning. It seemed that the emperor didn't know how much he liked the concubine Xiande, but it made all the concubines in the palace jealous for a while.This gave the Jia family an illusion. It seemed that the emperor still valued his family very much. Therefore, apart from regretting that his family's backer left just like this, each of them still did not find the slightest crisis, but became even more domineering.
