Whose Evil in the Red Chamber

When Mrs. Xue woke up, she saw her young daughter Baochai sitting beside her bed, her eyes were red and her face was very pale.

"My son..." Mrs. Xue looked at her daughter who was only a little old in front of her, and couldn't help beating the bed and crying. Little Baochai also threw herself into her mother's arms. Both mother and daughter cried until their throats were a little hoarse. Under the persuasion of the maids, the tears were slowly stopped.

During the period when Mrs. Xue passed out, many relatives and old relatives have come to visit. Seeing that the men of the Xue family are gone, Mrs. Xue fell ill, and there is only a four-year-old immature daughter left. Sighing, when they heard that there was movement from Mrs. Xue, they all looked for her.

These people saw that the mother and daughter were crying and their eyes were red, and they all persuaded: "Xue Gong and the others are in the spirit of heaven, and they don't want to see your mother and daughter so sad. Now that things have come to an end, crying is useless. Let's think about how to deal with it." Xue Gong's funeral is the most important thing."

The person who spoke was the daughter-in-law of a side branch of Xue's family, who was a few years older than Mrs. Xue, and had a son and a daughter under her knees. Seeing such a tragedy happened to Mrs. Xue's family, she felt very uncomfortable.Thinking of the fact that Xue's father and son were killed by bandits, and even the corpses were chopped up to a bloody mess, although the government had already begun to hunt down these bandits, this group of people knew that they had caused a catastrophe, so they fled away long ago, leaving only a space for the government. For Zhaizi, it is even more difficult to catch the murderer and bring him to justice.This kind of situation can be regarded as a violent death among violent deaths, which is different from ordinary funerals, so I hurriedly made a point.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xue came back to her senses, stood up and held her hand: "Sister-in-law, you have to help me now."

Sister-in-law Xue refused, but finally agreed. After a lot of fuss, the Xue family finally started to take care of the funerals of Xue Mingyi and Xue Pan. He asked his son Xue Bian to bring a few Xue family brothers from the same clan to come over to help and entertain the guests who came to mourn; in addition, he also sent people to the temple outside Jinling City to ask the presiding master to choose a date and invite a group of monks Overwhelmed at home.

Fortunately, the Xue family had many great servants, and relatives also contributed their best to help, so there was no confusion. In the next few days, the Xue family's close friends and old friends also rushed to Jinling City from all over the place.

Lin Ruhai and his wife couldn't leave without permission because one was on official business, and the other was weak and suffering from the cold. They wanted to go to Jinling in person, but they couldn't. But Jia Yucun personally invited Ying, and was willing to take his wife and children to Jinling to express his grief.

Lin Ruhai was very pleased when he heard the words. Because Jingxuan pointed out Jia Yucun's misbehavior, Lin Ruhai had some suspicions about this very proud first staff member, so he alienated him. It's gone for a few minutes.

Jia Yucun rushed to Jinling with his wife and Lin Ruhai's funeral supplies. First, he rented a large shop to house the carriages and entourage. Then he brought all the supplies to Xue's house. Who knew that he had just arrived at the door of Xue's house. , I saw that Xue’s gate was pushing and shoving and swearing for some passers-by people, even the white lantern hanging at the gate fell off for some reason, and the common people nearby were also pointing there. There was a bit of whispering, and there was a lot of noise.

Jia Yucun hurriedly asked people to push through the crowd and came closer, only to realize that the two people who were making a fuss were Mrs. Xue and Jin Sanniang, and many people around them helped to dissuade them. Unable to listen to even a word of persuasion, Jia Yucun's footsteps paused, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, it is really a coincidence that he came today!

"This girl, I don't know who you are, but you came to Xue's house to make trouble! If you are idle, please leave, otherwise you will provoke the government, and the girl will end badly. If it is an old friend of Xue's family, then you should not be here. If Xue Gong sees him in the spirit of heaven, he will be troubled!" Jia Yucun pretended not to recognize Jin Sanniang, stood at the front of the crowd, and opened his mouth to Mrs. Xue's side. Sanniang scolded her a lot.

Today, Sanniang came here sincerely to act for Mrs. Xue and others to see, while talking with Mrs. Xue according to Jing Xuan's script, seeing that this matter was really made a big deal by her, and more and more people watched, three Mother was very proud of herself, so she heard Jia Yucun's words, she glanced out of the corner of her eye, Sanniang recognized who Jia Yucun was, and applauded in her heart, she had been acting for a long time, and was worried that there were not enough spectators, this Jia Yucun just popped up, and it was the important person that Jing Xuan had explained to him.

Thinking of this, Sanniang sank her mind, her handsome willow eyebrows stood upright, she widened her eyes and looked at Jia Yucun, and sneered: "Who are you? I'm here today to beg my sister To be fair, what do you know, you don’t think it’s annoying to come here, and Feng Da flashed his tongue!”

Mrs. Xue let out a "bah" and scolded: "Your sister? Your sister is a loser! A vixen! You have fascinated my Pan'er so much that he has lost his life. You have the face to come here, but you still keep saying that you want to put your vixen's spiritual seat in our Xue family!"

Jia Yucun then showed a look of sudden realization, and said to Sanniang: "It turns out that it is Miss Jin. I am in Jiayu Village. I would like to ask the girl to express my condolences for the matter of your sister. It's just that I have something to say to the girl here. Since the order My sister and Mr. Xue are already engaged, so it is even more important to avoid suspicion. It is not easy for a married woman to show her face, let alone an unmarried couple who hang out all day. How can you go with me if you don't go out to study female celebrities? How can you go out and make trouble in front of Xue's house if your sister acts like this?"

Jia Yucun's eloquence is very good. After a few words, the crowd who were not sure why they were present all showed disgusted expressions and looked at Jin Sanniang. Said something not very pleasant, and Liu Xianglian next to her was so angry that she wished to step forward and give those people a few slaps.

Mrs. Xue, like a drowning person finally catching a piece of driftwood, showed gratitude to Jia Yucun, and said tearfully: "Thank you, Mr. Jia, for your righteous words. Everything you say is reasonable. In any case, I, Xue Mrs. Wang will never agree to let that unruly woman enter my mourning hall!"

Sanniang's face became very livid, and she stared fiercely at Jia Yucun. Seeing people pointing and pointing, they all fell to Mrs. Xue's side. They all had blue veins, and managed to avoid tearing off the white cloth covering it.

At this time Liu Xianglian came to Sanniang's side and said in a low voice: "There are many people today, why don't we leave first, there is still a lot of time before the date of initiation, we can plan in the long run."

After Sanniang agreed helplessly, the group pushed through the crowd and left the gate of Xue's residence, while Jia Yucun and his entourage were surrounded by Xue's people and entered Xue's house. The crowd saw that there was no excitement to watch. , After a while, they all dispersed.

But these people could no longer imagine that in private, Sanniang didn't have the slightest resentment or sorrow on her face. She casually put the tablet she was holding on the table, and the white cloth on it fell off. There is no handwriting, as if it is empty.On the contrary, it was Liu Xianglian, who was still displeased with the gossip of those people just now, and wished she could vent her anger for Sanniang.

Sanniang looked at his appearance, and said with a burst of laughter, "Young Master, I said that this is called singing a full set of operas, lest smart people see the clues, it's fine for others to enter the play, why don't you, an insider Can’t jump out? Thanks to yourself, you always like to play roles, it’s really embarrassing!”

Liu Xianglian's complexion improved now, and she put the unhappiness behind her just now, and said with a cheerful smile: "It's me. But thinking of Jia Yucun's villainous face, I feel really unhappy. "

Sanniang sneered when she heard the words: "Let him be proud for now, but the eldest son said that there is another purpose for this move, which is to invite you into the urn. Whoever can jump in is unlucky. It seems that Jiayu Village is already the turtle in the eldest son's urn." Now, why are you still angry with him?"

Liu Xianglian thought about it for the same reason, so she forgot the last bit of unhappiness.

Don't mention that Sanniang is waiting to watch the good show, just say that Jia Yucun and others entered Xue's house, Jia Yucun and other outsiders naturally went to the front mourning hall to worship, and Jia Yucun's wife Jiao Xing went to the inner room with Mrs. Xue say.

Because she was very grateful for Jia Yucun's "speaking out of righteousness" just now, Mrs. Xue had a certain affection for Jiao Xing, and her words were quite close.This Jiao Xing was originally a servant girl, but who knew that Jia Yucun took him by her side because she gave birth to a son. After the death of Jia Yucun's original wife, she flew to the branch and became the main room. The servant girl, however, has the airs of a lady in the house, but she doesn't dare to take it too seriously when she is in front of Mrs. Xue, not to mention that she was ordered by Jia Yucun to show some words to lure Mrs. Xue into the bait, so her words are even more humble. Yes, Jiao Xing's demeanor naturally made Mrs. Xue very happy, and the two quickly became familiar with each other.

After the funeral on the auspicious day, the guests went home one after another. This Jiao Xing came to the house to say goodbye to Mrs. Xue, Mrs. Xue took her hand, very affectionate, really reluctant.

This Jiao Xing's eye circles were also red, and she held Mrs. Xue's hand, as if she had struggled a bit, and then said in a low voice: "It's so kind of you to treat me, I also have some things to tell you here, but these words may be Don't let me speak, if you listen to it, listen to it if it makes sense, and if you think I'm really rude, then drive me out."

Mrs. Xue was shocked, and asked again and again, Jiao Xing finally stabilized her mind, and told Mrs. Xue what Jia Yucun taught her.

"The first one is about the shrew. These days there are many busy guests in the mansion. If the woman comes to make trouble again, she will have no good fruit to eat, so she will be honest. But now only sister and Miss Bao are left in the mansion to keep their filial piety. Although there are many servants here, but that woman is fierce, there is no guarantee that she will stop making trouble, what will you do then?"

As soon as Jiao Xing opened her mouth, she spoke into Mrs. Xue's heart. Now she was holding Jiao Xing's hand and refused to let go. I feel sorry for me. Those people just came to the house to join in the fun, but they think they are my benefactors! How could they know that I am worried about this matter day and night! If she is a person who knows etiquette, justice and shame, that's all, so do it Don't do such a delicate thing; but she is a bastard, if she comes to kill her, what will we orphans and widows do?"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Xue remembered that Jia Yucun worked in front of Lin Ruhai, and the backer behind the shrew of the Jin family was Lin Ruhai's son Lin Jingxuan. Now Mrs. Xue regarded Jiao Xing as a life-saving medicine, and asked : "My good sister, give me an idea. After all, you and your wife are quite respectable in front of Mr. Lin, aren't you?"

Jiao Xing sighed in embarrassment and said: "I will never mention this to others, but since you asked, I will tell the truth. I heard my master mentioned it. A good man who understands etiquette, but this Mr. Lin is the complete opposite of Mr. Lin. He is stubborn and moody by nature, but he is very tyrannical.

My master works in front of Mrs. Lin, and is also Miss Lin's master. It stands to reason that Mr. Lin should always give my master some face. Who knows why this Mr. Lin doesn't know why, every time he sees my master, Those who raised their eyebrows horizontally and raised their eyes vertically were not in a good mood at all.

Not only that, but even in the face of Mr. Lin, if he said something presumptuous, Mr. Lin could not be called filial piety. He made Mr. Lin so angry that he had a headache several times, and Mrs. Lin covered her face with tears.However, he was protecting him from above, Master Lin wanted to discipline him, but he was helpless. This is why I mentioned that woman to you. With such a person behind her, I was really worried that the woman would not know what else she could do. ! "

Jiao Xing's words beat Mrs. Xue's chest and feet, spat and said: "There has never been such a truth in this world. This Lin boy is too domineering and rebellious. I think my master treated him well before he was alive. That surname What good did Jin's mother-in-law promise him, that he would let him repay his kindness so much that it would disturb me and Bao'er's whole family before he gave up?"

Jiao Xing paused, her eyes wandered for a while, she kept her mouth shut, Mrs. Xue was quick to talk, she didn't think about it, but seeing Jiao Xing's appearance at this time, Mrs. Xue was shocked, and hurriedly asked Said: "Could it be that there are other reasons for this?"

"This..." Jiao Xingyou hesitated, as if she had made up her mind, she lowered her voice and whispered in Mrs. Xue's ear, "I shouldn't have said this, but you are really kind to me. I really can't bear to see you being harmed by that villain who is so ambitious."

Aunt Xue's face was so frightened that her face changed, and she hurriedly begged: "What is the reason, please tell me, sister!"

Jiao Xing then said: "The woman surnamed Jin can't do Mr. Lin any favors. This time, Mr. Lin is probably using the woman surnamed Jin. Don't forget, the Xue family's huge family business is now It's you and Bao girl who support it. It's hard to guarantee that someone will think about it when they see that the Xue family has no men to set up a house. If you have to confirm your marriage with the Jin family, then the Jin family is your in-laws. At that time, if the Jin family intervenes in the Xue family's shop, this..."

Jiao Xing didn't say any more, but Mrs. Xue was already very confidant of Jiao Xing's statement in her heart, and she made up countless vicious thoughts of Jing Xuan and the Jin family, which made Mrs. Xue's face turn blue and white , Fear and resentment at the same time, clutching his heart and being speechless.

Jiao Xing also kept silent, but was so worried that she supported Mrs. Xue's arm. After a long while, Mrs. Xue turned around, took Jiao Xing's hand, and sighed: "It's hard for you and me to share these psychological words. Now, they have torn their faces and turned black hearts, what can we do for orphans and widows!"

Mrs. Xue's suffering is clearest in her heart. The Xue family has no man who is the head of the family. Although there are many in-laws, and her natal Wang's family is right in front of her eyes, she does know that her brother Wang Ziteng has been in love with the Zhen family since a few years ago. After losing the emperor's heart, he has been trying to regain the emperor's heart. If he knew that Lin Jingxuan was coveting the Xue family's property, it would be impossible for her, an ambitious brother, to sell the two of them to Lin Jingxuan with both hands.

Jia's family is far away in the capital city, and the distant water does not satisfy the near thirst, after all it is difficult to relieve the siege. For a while, Mrs. Xue only felt that there was darkness in front of her eyes, and she could not see any light.

Jiao Xing's eyes flickered, and under Mrs. Xue's urgent gaze, she finally came close to Mrs. Xue's ear, and said in a very small voice: "You are a sensible person. Although Mr. Lin is dissatisfied with the eldest son, he wrote everything in one stroke. How can the father and son have an overnight feud without two words of Lin? Even though the Xue family is one of the four prominent families, but the dead are dead, how long can this relationship last? After all, it is the living who take advantage. According to me Look, it would be the best if you can find someone else who is not involved in these human relations."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xue felt as if she was enlightened, and there was light in her eyes. She was very grateful to Jiao Xing, and said with tears: "If the disaster can be resolved this time, I will never forget your kindness."

So far, Jia Yucun and his wife have successfully poured a large bucket of sewage on Jingxuan in front of Mrs. Xue. However, Mrs. Xue was prejudiced against the Jin family sisters, and then became angry with Lin Jingxuan who "lured" her son to know the Jin family sisters. Feeling dissatisfied, Jia Yucun was able to understand Mrs. Xue's thinking, and then he completely misled Mrs. Xue's thinking.

Lin Jingxuan is the chief culprit, Lin Ruhai is untrustworthy, and the family of four kings and eight princes does not have much love. If Prince Zhong'an's mansion stretches out his hand at this time, I am afraid that Mrs. Xue is not like a drowning person who can't hold on to driftwood at first sight. did you let go?

Jia Yucun satisfactorily completed the task assigned to him by Huan Yi. When he returned to Weiyang, Jia Yucun quietly passed a message to Huan Yi. Huan Yi had already prepared it, and once the arrangements were made, Huan Yi was very proud Touching the wrench in his hand, he said in his heart that this villain really uses it well, and he can get twice the result with half the effort, water soluble, water soluble, this time see how much broth you can get to drink, this Xue family, this son will accept it with a smile.

Left and right, Wuhegang has been obediently hidden after finishing this vote. Even if Shui Rong holds the account book and Zhao Biaotou, without Wuhegang, his so-called "evidence" is nothing more than It's just flimsy waste paper.If it wasn't for the fact that the mess of Weiyang's salt affairs would have to be pushed to the Zhongshun Palace by the two of them, the alliance with Shui Rong would be useless right now.
