Fun Kan Red Chamber 197: The son is in trouble, Jia Mu mocks his daughter-in-law, the grandson is incompetent, and the grandmother is helpless to take responsibility
Mandarin Duck cried and complained that Jia Yu "forced" her to be a concubine, and Jia Mu was so angry that she saw Lady Wang by her side, regardless of whether Three Seven Twenty-One was furious at her daughter-in-law.
Madame Wang had innocently suffered on her behalf, and no one dared to speak. The daughter Jia Tanchun had a heart, and after listening outside the window, she probably went to her grandmother to relieve her mother-in-law.
Jia Mu was given a step by TanChun, which eased her mood and gradually dissipated under Wang Xifeng's gag.
When this side was finished, the servant came in and reported that the "big lady" had come. Madame Wang took the initiative to go out to pick up Mrs. Xing, and the two had a little exchange, which was also deserved.
However, There was another point when Lady Wang came out, that is, Lady Xing completely flinched. You must face Jia Mu, and it is not easy to say whether there is a small calculation between concubines.
At that time, Mandarin Duck, Aunt Xue, Wang Xifeng, etc. all avoided it, and although Lady Xing was worried in her heart, she had to face it in the end.
(Forty-seventh time) When Jia Mu saw no one, Fang said, "I heard you say that the media is coming for your old master." You are also three from four virtues, but this virtuousness is also too much! Now that you are also full of grandchildren and sons, you are still afraid of him, and you can't persuade him to do both, and you are still making trouble with your old man's nature. Madame Xing blushed and replied, "I have advised her not to follow her several times." The old lady still doesn't know it, and I have no choice but to do it. Jia Mu said, "He forced you to kill people, and you killed them too?"
Jia Mu counted Down Lady Xing, which was not the same as scolding Lady Wang just now. Her words were more sarcastic, and she said two things about Madame Xing.
First, "the virtuousness is too much."
Jia Mu thought that Lady Xing was out of character. Although it is good for a woman to have three from four virtues, it is too unobtrusive and too cowardly to be advisable.
Notice that Jia Mu said "three from four virtues", which was the standard for women in that era. She did not deny that Lady Xing's "three from four virtues" was not good, and Lady Xing's mistake was in the word "too".
Jia Yu sent her to beg for Mandarin Duck this time, which was obviously impossible, and she actually complied, which can be imagined how stupid it was.
However, the reason why Jia Mu was not embarrassed for Lady Xing was that what she did was essentially correct, and it should not be stopped under the circumstances at that time.
Lady Xing gave Jia a concubine under the premise that Wang Xifeng did not give birth to Jia Yana's concubine. The mother-in-law personally demonstrated to her daughter-in-law the three from four virtues of a woman, and Jia Mu could not dispel Lady Xing's enthusiasm, nor could she give Wang Xifeng a negative hint.
Second, too obedient.
Lady Xing's "too much" three from four virtues is not good, and "too much from the husband" is even worse. Women have no principled position, and it is most inappropriate to deal with the world without self-respect.
Lady Xing, as the hostess of Jia's long house, must be responsible for the whole family, and if she obeys her husband in everything, it is bound to be a sign of failure.
Jia Yu and Lady Xing are not young, they have children and grandchildren, although they do not have grandchildren, they are also of advanced age. It is said that Lady Xing should let go of the happy knot, and not be afraid of her husband and cower like when she was young.
Lady Xing was too afraid of losing her immediate interests. She did not have children, and it was inevitable that she would be careful everywhere. She has her pain, and it is difficult to understand that Jia Mu is of noble birth.
Jia Mu knew exactly what her son Jia Was about. Although Lady Xing did not satisfy her, in the end she could not force it. Jia Mu was angry with him and mourned his misfortune. I also want to tell her the truth.
(Seventy-fourth time) Jia Mu said, "... Now you also think about it, your brother and daughter-in-law were honest, and how sick and painful they were, up and down that was not his worry? Although one of your daughters-in-law helps, she also throws down her broom every day. Everything I do, I have now reduced myself. The two of them had some places to go, there were Mandarin ducks, the child was still more careful, he was still thinking about my things, he should go, he was going to come, what to add, he just told them to add. Mandarin duck is not like this, his mother and son, inside and outside, big and small, there is not ignored a piece and a half, I am now worried about myself can not go? Or do you want something every day? ”
The reason why Jia Mu was extra patient with Lady Xing was that she had watched the nest of her eldest daughter-in-law all her life. There is no family to rely on the woman, although Jia Mu can not empathize, in the end she also understands what she is afraid of.
The old lady broke it and crushed it to explain to Lady Xing. It was unreasonable that she did not understand Jia Mu's difficulties.
Jia Mu explained why she didn't give mandarin ducks to Jia Shu as a concubine. First of all, Mrs. Wang is "honest", and her health is not good. It is also different from just now when she scolded Lady Wang and said that Lady Xing was not filial to "face feelings". It seems that Jia Mu is partial to recognizing Lady Wang and not recognizing Lady Xing. In fact, Jia Mu's words have their own deep meaning.
The two houses of rongguo mansion were divided, and the title was given to Jia Amnesty and the knighthood property was given to Jia Zheng. Jia Mu followed the second son, and the eldest son seemed to have a lot of peace of mind.
Jia Mu is reminding Lady Xing that you are no longer filial piety, so don't go too far.
However, the original titles of the second son were all given to the eldest son, but they were divided among the younger brothers. Jia Mu also sympathized with the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the eldest son and his wife.
It is not easy for her to talk about Madame Wang is to ease the relationship between concubines and concubines. If she says that Madame Wang is good or bad, it is easy to ossify and destroy the relationship between the two rooms. Jia Mu's good intentions need to be measured.
At the same time, Jia Mu's words are also saying that it is not easy for herself. Due to the division of the two houses, the extended family is bound to be divided. Wang Xifeng came to help Lady Wang, which is the key to the bridge between the two rooms, and can also allow Lady Xing's son and daughter-in-law to get some benefits. When Jia Mu mentioned this matter, it was undoubtedly her ingenious arrangement.
But at the same time, because of the ability of Wang Xifeng and Lady Wang, the quality of Jia Mu's life has greatly declined. The grade of her grand and glorious lady of the Imperial Household is far from what she now enjoys.
Rong Guofu was declining day by day, and Jia Mu had already reduced everything that could be reduced. She talked about her actual situation, which in turn implied that her son was impatient, let the old woman suffer, and blocked Lady Xing's mouth and emotions.
Finally, there's the importance of the Mandarin Duck. Jia Mu lacks anything short, mandarin duck can think. Jia Mu was at ease and did not have to do it herself. Children and grandchildren are also at ease.
Jia Mu was asking Lady Xing, is it difficult to change the Mandarin Duck, will you personally come to serve me?
(Forty-seventh time) Jammu said, "... There are no one in my room, he is left, he is older, and he still knows a little about my ordinary temperament. Second, he also surrendered to the fate of the masters, and did not mean that I and this wife wanted clothes, and I asked the grandmother for silver. So in the past few years, when things have happened, what he said, from your aunt and your daughter-in-law, to the size of the family, there is no disbelief. So not only do I have to rely on it, but even your little aunt and daughter-in-law are also at ease. I have such a person, that is, my daughter-in-law and grandchildren and daughters-in-law have something that I can't think of, and I can't be absent, and I don't have anger to be angry. This time he will go, what kind of person do you want to make me? You will get him to be such a pearl-pearl person, who will not speak and is useless. ”
Jia Mu's words seem to be "using" the Mandarin Duck, but it is also the old master's maintenance of the pet girl.
At that time, mandarin ducks were just pets. Jia Mu is not unable to give, she can take the initiative to give, but Jia Yu can not take the initiative to ask. The most important thing is that Jia Yu is old, has reached the time when he should not want it, and he is still greedy enough to make Jia Mu angry.
Jia Mu is also really inseparable from the Mandarin Duck, she feels that she does not have a few years to live, there are Mandarin Ducks in their old age can be more comfortable, the old man's selfishness is inevitable.
In addition, Jia Mu, such as Raider, Qingwen, Cui Wei, and Purple Crane, all arranged a home, whether it was good or not to see their personal lives.
Jia Mu kept the Mandarin Duck, and it was impossible not to give her a home. According to the meaning of Jia Mu's words, she is most likely to give Mandarin ducks to Jia Lian as concubines when the time is ripe. As a result, the son did not give success, but Lao Tzu was in a hurry.
Jia Mu's plan was unsuccessful, or Lao Tzu robbed her son, how not to be angry.
(Forty-seventh time) Jammu said, "... I was about to send someone to tell your grandfather who he wanted, I have money here, tell him to just take care of eighteen thousand to buy, just this guy can't. Leaving him to serve me for a few years is like he did his filial piety day and night. You came by chance, you go and say, it is more appropriate. ”
In fact, the most important thing about Jia Mu is this passage, she has been calm and reasoning with Lady Xing, and it is also this sentence that is really useful.
She said that what kind of person Jia Yu wanted, she paid even eighteen thousand to buy it. Except for Mandarin ducks.
Jia Mu this is a bowl of water flat, but also gave the eldest son face. Prove that she is not really "eccentric". The palms of her two sons' hands are all flesh, which one can she not hurt?
In addition, Jia Mu asked Jia Yu to buy people to support him to take concubines, and it was Lady Chengquan Xing who did not let her be embarrassed.
Lady Xing pardoned Zhang Luona's concubine on behalf of Jia, so that the Jia family could have many children and many blessings. Jia Mu hopes that the more children and grandchildren, the better. The situation of Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, she really paid attention to it earlier. Now supporting Jia Amnesty to buy concubines is also to understand Jia's intention to forgive Mandarin Duck. Hint that she will take care of Jia Lian's affairs.
In the future, when Jia Lian secretly married Second Sister You, jia's mother first accepted Second Sister You, and then Jia Pardon was then given to Jia Lian Qiutong. The tacit cooperation between mother and son made Wang Xifeng completely miscalculate and passive, which directly affected her final outcome.
In short, Jia Mu spoke, clapped the Mandarin Duck, and unveiled this chapter. Originally, there was nothing about Aunt Xue here, but Cao Xueqin's pen turned sharply and wrote out Aunt Xue's embarrassment, what is going on? To find out what happens next, look at the next breakdown!
