Dream of the Red Mansion

The Liu family said with a smile: "My dear monkey, your aunt has gone to see Lao Ye, you have an extra uncle, don't be suspicious! Don't ask me to cover your head with a few hairs. Come down! You haven’t opened the door yet to let me in.” The boy didn’t open the door, and said with a smile: “My good aunt, once you go in, at least steal some apricots for me to eat. I’m always waiting here. If you forget When it's time, I won't open the door for you, old man, and I won't promise you, for those who buy wine and oil in the middle of the night in the future, and I won't promise you, so you can call me." Liu spat: "If you're in a daze, this year is no different than in previous years. Divide these things up. I gave it to all the grandmas. They didn’t look like they had scratched their faces. They passed under the tree, their eyes were like those of a pheasant, and they still touched their fruit! I walked under the plum tree yesterday, A bee passed by my face, and when I waved, your good aunt saw it. He couldn't see it from a distance, and he thought I was picking plums, so he yelled loudly and said yes again. Haven't made offerings to the Buddha yet', yes again. Old lady, the wife hasn't eaten since she's not at home. When she enters the top, the sisters-in-law will all have a share. I didn’t have a good word to say, and I robbed him. But your aunt and aunt are in charge of two or three relatives, why don’t you ask them for it, but ask me for it. This is it. The hamster mouse and the old raven went to borrow food——watch There are none, there are flying ones." The young man laughed and said, "Oh, no, let's talk about these gossips! I think you won't need me when you get old? It's just that my sister has a good place, and she will call for her in the future. There will be a lot of days, as long as we promise him more." After hearing this, Liu Shi said with a smile: "You little monkey spirit, and you are a trickster, what good thing does your sister have?" The little servant smiled. Said: "Don't lie to me, I already know it. Just because you have introverts, can't we do without introverts? Although I am here to listen, there are also two sisters who are decent. What happened to us? !"

Just as I was talking, I heard another old woman calling out from the door: "Little monkeys, send your Aunt Liu to go, or you will miss it if you don't come." Liu's family listened, regardless of talking to the servant, and hurriedly pushed He went in and said with a smile: "Don't be busy, I'm here." As he came to the kitchen - although there were a few companions, they didn't dare to be self-confident, just waiting for him to mediate the distribution - while asking everyone: "Five Where did you go, girl?" Everyone said, "I just went to the tea room to find their sisters." After hearing this, the Liu family put the Poria cocos cream away and distributed the dishes according to the head of the room.Suddenly, the little girl Lianhuaer in the Yingchun room came and said: "Sister Siqi said, I want a bowl of eggs, stewed and tender." The Liu family said: "It's so honorable. Somehow, this year the eggs are very short. I can't find one for ten bucks. Yesterday I sent porridge and rice to my relatives, four or five compradors went out, and finally got together two thousand. Where can I find it? You say give it to him, and eat it another day Forget it." Lianhua'er said: "I wanted tofu before, but you made some rotten ones and told him to tell me. Today I want eggs and they are gone. I don't believe there are no eggs for any good things. Don't ask me to dig it out." As he said, he walked over, lifted the vegetable box and saw that there were about a dozen eggs in it, and said, "Isn't this? You're so powerful! What you eat is the master's, Why do you feel distressed about our division? It’s not that you laid the eggs for fear that people will eat them.”

The Liu family hurriedly lost the work in hand, and came up and said: "You don't want to be an asshole! Your mother is the only one who lays eggs! All these are left for the toppings on the dishes. The girls don't want it, and they still refuse to make it. Well, I’m ready for an emergency. You eat, and if you want to get up, there is nothing good, even the eggs are gone. You are deep in the house, you stretch out your hands when you come to water, and you open your mouth when you come to eat. You only know that eggs are ordinary objects. How do you know how to buy and sell outside? Don’t talk about it, there will be a year when there are no grass roots. I advise them, fine rice and white rice, fat chicken and big duck every day, it’s just a little bit. If you are tired of eating, boil it Stories are coming up again. Eggs, tofu, what kind of gluten, fried radish in sauce, dare to change the taste, but I didn’t promise you, if you want the same one, there are ten or so. I don’t want to serve the top master , only your second-tier masters are prepared."

Lianhua blushed when she heard this, and shouted: "Who wants you to come every day? You talk about the two cars! I called you here, not for cheap but why. The former son Xiaoyan came and said. Sister Qingwen wants Eat Artemisiae', why are you so busy and still ask about fried chicken? Xiaoyan said. The meat is not good, so I asked you to fry gluten. It is better to use less oil.' You are too busy to talk. You feel dizzy' I rushed to wash my hands and fried it, and I hugged it like a dog. Today, I am used as a raft, saying that I will show it to everyone." Liu's family hurriedly said: "Amitabha! These people saw it with their own eyes. Don't say it once before. Since the establishment of the kitchen in the last year, every time in each room, no matter whether the girls or sisters want to add one or a half things, whoever takes the money first and buys another. Some don’t have a good reputation. The girl saves trouble in the kitchen and has a surplus, so it is disgusting to calculate the bill: Even the girl and her sisters have four or fifty people, and they only need two chickens, two ducks, ten catties of meat, and vegetables for a dime a day. Do the math, what is enough for you? You can’t even support two meals in this item, and you can still live in this point, that point, and you don’t eat what you bought, and buy other things. If this is the case, why not go back It’s like preparing the old lady’s meal in a big kitchen. I wrote all the vegetables and vegetables in the world on the water plate, and I ate them every day. It’s good to eat for a month. Even the former three girls and Bao The girl accidentally discussed that she wanted to eat fried wolfberry sprouts with oil and salt, and now she sent a sister to me with five hundred dollars. Go for a hundred dollars. I can still prepare for the thirty or twenty dollars.' Hurry me to send the money back. If you don’t accept it in the end, you will reward me with wine and food. Now the kitchen is inside, so I can’t keep the house. People who don’t want to ask for it, one salt and one sauce, it’s not bought by money. It’s not good if you don’t give it, and you don’t have to pay for it if you give it to you. You take this money and return all the things they have been asking for on weekdays Wo'er.' This is Mei Keng, the tomb of the younger sister Tartar. We only prayed for him in our hearts. No, Aunt Zhao was very angry when she heard it, and said that it was too cheap for me. She would send a little girl here in less than ten days It makes me laugh when I look for this and that. You have become an example, either this or that, and I have these compensations."

When it was in chaos, Siqi sent someone to urge Lianhuaer, saying, "He died here, why don't you go back?" Lianhuaer came back in a fit of anger, and added a message to Siqi.After hearing this, Siqi couldn't help feeling angry.At this moment, after serving the Spring Festival dinner, he brought the little girls and saw many people eating, and saw that he was coming in a bad way, so they all hurriedly got up and gave up their seats with a smile.Siqi ordered the little girls to do it, "All the vegetables in the boxes and cabinets can be harvested* and fed to the dogs* and everyone can't make money." thrown.While trying to persuade them, they begged Siqi, "Girl, don't misunderstand the child. Sister-in-law Liu has eight heads, and she dare not offend the girl. It is true that eggs are hard to buy. We also said that he doesn't know what to do. There is no need to change anything. He has already realized it, and quickly got into it. Girls don't believe it, look at the fire." Siqi was persuaded by everyone, and his anger gradually calmed down.

The little girls didn't have to finish throwing things, so they pulled away.Siqi kept talking and scolding, and after making a fuss, Fang was persuaded by everyone to leave.The Liu family had no choice but to throw away the bowl and gurgled for a while, and steamed a bowl of eggs to be delivered.All the chess games were thrown to the ground.The man didn't dare to say anything when he came back, for fear of causing trouble again.The Liu family sent his daughter to have some soup and half a bowl of porridge, and then told her about Fulingshuang.After Wu'er heard this, he decided to give some to Fangguan, so he wrapped another half in paper, and at dusk when there were few people, he came to find Fangguan hidden by flowers and willows.And I'm glad no one questioned me.Once I reached the gate of Yihong Courtyard, it was not easy to go in. I just stood in front of a cluster of roses and watched from afar.When there was a cup of tea, it happened that Xiaoyan came out and hurriedly stepped forward to stop.Xiaoyan didn't know which one it was, so she looked closely at the front and asked what she was doing.Wu'er laughed and said, "Call out Fangguan, and I'll talk to him." Xiaoyan laughed softly and said, "My sister is too impatient. Anyway, I'll come here after ten days. Just ask him for what to do. I just made him Go ahead, wait for him. Otherwise, if you have something to tell me, wait for me to tell him. I'm afraid you can't wait, I'm afraid the gate of the garden will be closed." Wu'er handed Fulingshuang to Xiaoyan , and said that this is Poria cocos cream, how to eat it, how to nourish it, "I got some for him, just pass it to him." After finishing speaking, he came back with his speech.

As I was walking around Liaoxu, I suddenly saw Lin Zhixiao's family coming with some women. Wu'er couldn't hide, so he had to come up to say hello.Lin Zhixiao's family asked, "I heard that you were sick, why did you come here?" Wu'er laughed and said, "Because of the two hot days, my mother and I came in to relieve boredom. It's because my mother sent me to Yizhou. Send the guy to the Red Courtyard." Lin Zhixiao's family said: "This is a mistake. I just closed the door when I saw your mother come out. Since your mother asked you to go, why didn't he tell me that you were here and went out? Tell me to close the door, what is your idea? I know you are lying." After hearing this, Wu'er had nothing to answer, but said: "My mother taught me to take it out early in the morning. I forgot, and I didn't remember until then. I'm afraid my mother mistakenly thought that I went out first, so I didn't tell my aunt." Lin Zhixiao's family was blunt when he heard his words, and because Yu Chuan'er said that something was lost in the main room over there recently, the couple The girl is against Lai and has no master, so she becomes suspicious.Coincidentally, Xiaochan, Lianhua'er and several daughters-in-law came, and when they saw this, they said, "Grandma Lin is going to interrogate him. It's not like he's been running around here for the past two days. something."

Xiaochan said again: "That's right. Yesterday, sister Yuchuan said that the cabinet in the wife's side room was opened, and a lot of odds and ends were missing. Second Mistress Lian sent Miss Ping and sister Yuchuan to ask for some rose dew, but who knew that there was also a piece missing. Jar. If it’s not for looking for dew, I don’t know.” Lianhua’er laughed and said, “I didn’t hear that, but today I saw a dew bottle.” Lin Zhixiao’s family was left without a master because of these things, and Sister Feng every day The son made Ping'er urge him, and when he heard this, he hurriedly asked where he was.Lianhua'er said, "It's in their kitchen." Lin Zhixiao's family heard this, and hurriedly lit up the lanterns, and led everyone to look for them.Wu'er said in a hurry, "it was given to me by the Fang official in the house of the second master Bao." Lin Zhixiao's family said, "Whether you are an official or an official, if you have stolen evidence, I just reported it. Argue before your master." As he said, he entered the kitchen with Lian Hua'er and took out the dew bottle.Fearing that there might be something else stolen, I searched carefully again, and got another pack of Poria cocos cream, which I took together, and took Wu'er back and forth between Li Wan and Tanchun.

At that time, because Brother Lan was ill, Li Wan ignored his affairs and ordered to see Tanchun.Tanchun has returned home.When people go back in, the maids are all enjoying the coolness in the courtyard, and Tanchun takes a bath inside, and they can only go back in after waiting for the book.Half a day later, she came out and said, "Girl knows, I want you to find Ping'er and go back to the second grandma." Lin Zhixiao's family had to take it out.When I went to Sister Feng's side, I found Ping'er first, and Ping'er went in and went back to Sister Feng.Sister Feng had just rested, and when she heard about this, she ordered: "Slap his mother forty boards, drive him out, and never allow him to enter the second door. Give Wu'er a forty board, and immediately hand it over to Zhuangzi, or sell or match someone. After hearing this, Ping'er came out and gave orders to Lin Zhixiao's family.Wu'er cried and cried, knelt down to Ping'er, and told Fangguan about it.Ping'er said: "It's not difficult. I'll know the truth when I ask Fang Guan tomorrow. But Fulingshuang was sent the day before yesterday, and I didn't dare to be impressed until the old lady came back to see it. It shouldn't be stolen." . " Seeing the question, Wu'er hurriedly recounted a section from his uncle.After hearing this, Ping'er laughed and said, "So, you are an innocent person, and I took you to top the tank. At this time, grandma just took the medicine and rested, so it's inconvenient to ramble about such a trivial matter. Now let's He will be guarded by Shang Ye's people overnight, and I will make sense when I return to grandma tomorrow." Lin Zhixiao's family did not dare to disobey, so they had to take them out and hand them over to Shang Ye's daughters-in-law, and they went on their own.

Here, Wu'er was put under house arrest, not daring to take more than one step.And all the daughters-in-law also persuaded him that he shouldn't do such unreasonable things, and some complained that he couldn't sit up even more seriously, and brought a thief to show us. we are not.Then there were people who were at odds with Liu's family on weekdays. When they saw this, they took advantage of their wishes and came to ridicule him.The five sons were angry and wronged in their hearts, but they had nowhere to complain, and they were originally weak and sick. This night, they missed tea but had no tea, thought of water without water, and wanted to sleep without a quilt pillow. They whimpered and cried all night.

Unexpectedly, those people who were at odds with his mother and daughter wished to drive them out for a while, fearing that something would change the next day, everyone got up early in the morning, and quietly came to buy Zhuan Ping'er, giving some things while flattering him He does things briefly and decisively, and at the same time tells about his mother's many bad days.Ping'er responded one by one, and sent them away, but quietly came to visit the attacker, and asked him if it was true that Fang Guan had revealed it to him.Xiren then said, "Lu is for Fangguan, but I don't know who Fangguan transfers it to." So Xiren asked Fangguan again, and Fangguan listened and jumped to the sky. Busy, he should have sent him.Then Fangguan told Baoyu again, and Baoyu panicked, saying, "Although Lu has it, if he brings up Fu Lingshuang, he will confess it. If he hears that it was from his uncle's door, his uncle has it again." No, isn’t it because of someone’s good intentions that we framed him instead.” Because of his busy schedule, Heping’er discussed: “Although Lu’s matter is over, there is something wrong with this frost. Good sister, if you tell him that it was given to him by Fang Guan It's over." Ping'er laughed and said, "That's the case, but he already told people last night that his uncle gave it to him, so how can he say that you gave it to him? Besides, the dew that was thrown over there was also ownerless, and now there is evidence of it being stolen." Let it go in vain, who will you go to? Who will admit it? Everyone may not be convinced." Qingwen came up and smiled and said: "There is no one else for Lu on the wife's side. It is clear that Caiyun stole it and gave it to Brother Huan. You guys You can talk nonsense."

Ping'er laughed and said: "Who doesn't know the reason, but today Yu Chuan'er cried anxiously and asked him quietly, and he agreed, and Yu Chuan was fine, so everyone just didn't ask. Could it be that we are soliciting this matter with good intentions?" No way! I hate that Caiyun not only didn't answer, he even squeezed the jade bracelet, saying that he had stolen it. The two of them fired a cannon in the nest, and everyone who quarreled first knew how we pretended nothing happened. We had to investigate. We didn't know the thief He is a thief, and he has no evidence of stolen goods. What can I say about him?" Baoyu said, "Well, I should also respond to this matter, and say that I stole my wife's money quietly. Both things are true. It's over." Xiren said: "It's a sinister thing, the name of the security guard. It's just that the wife heard that you were childish and didn't know what to do." Ping'er laughed and said, "It's a trivial matter. Now I will follow Aunt Zhao It's easy to get stolen goods in the house, but I'm afraid I'll hurt a good man's dignity again. Don't worry about others, this one person will be angry again. I feel sorry for him, and he refuses to hurt the jade bottle for killing mice." Said Then, stretch out three fingers.When Xiren heard about it, he knew he was talking about Tanchun.Everyone hurriedly said: "But this is what we have responded to here."

Ping'er laughed again and said, "I have to call Caiyun and Yu Chuan'er, two karmic barriers, and ask them if they are sure. Otherwise, they will benefit. Not to mention this, it seems that I have no ability to ask. After coming out here to finish the work, they will steal more and more in the future, and don't care about it." Xiren and others laughed and said, "Exactly, I want you to make room." Ping'er then ordered someone to call the two of them, and said: "Don't panic, the thief is already there."

Yu Chuan'er first asked where the thief was, and Ping'er said: "Now in Second Grandma's room, you should ask him what you should do. I know in my heart that he didn't steal it, but I'm sorry that he is afraid to admit it. Here, Second Master Bao is not happy. He wants to replace it." He admits half of it. I'm going to say it later, but it's only suitable for Qin Yu. Second Master Bao agreed, and everyone is fine. Now I want to ask you two, or what? If everyone is careful to save face from now on, then I will ask Second Master Bao to agree. If not, I will return to Second Mistress, don’t be wronged A good man." Caiyun blushed when she heard this, and felt ashamed and disgusted for a moment, so she said, "Don't worry, sister, don't offend a good man, and don't hurt your face with innocent people. It was Aunt Zhao who stole things. Begged me again and again, I took some and it was true love with brother Huan. We even took some when my wife was at home, and it was common for each of us to give them away. I said that it would be fine after two days of yelling. Now that I have wronged a good man, my heart I couldn't bear it either. My sister actually took me back to grandma, and I agreed to everything." Hearing this, everyone was surprised that he was so daring.Baoyu hurriedly laughed and said, "Sister Caiyun is really a decent person. You don't need to answer now. I just said that I secretly stole you to fool you. Now that something happened, I should have admitted it. I just ask my sisters to save some trouble in the future. Everyone is fine." Caiyun said: "Why do you have to accept what I did? I should accept life and death."

Ping'er Xiren hurriedly said: "That's not the case. Once you agreed, you would inevitably talk about Aunt Zhao. At that time, the third girl would be angry when she heard it. It's not as good as the second master Bao. Everyone is fine and Except for these few people, no one should know about it. How clean it is. But everyone must be careful in the future. Whatever you want to bring, at least until your wife comes home, even if the house is given to someone else, we have nothing to do with it. "Caiyun listened to Liangshuang and lowered his head to think for a while, Fang Yiyun.So everyone negotiated, Ping'er brought his two Fang officials to the front, called Wu'er in the night room, and quietly taught him that the Poria Frost was a gift from Fang Guan, and Wu'er thanked him Endless.Ping'er brought them to his side, and saw that Lin Zhixiao's family led several daughters-in-law, and escorted Liu's family to wait for a long time.Lin Zhixiao's family said to Ping'er again: "I took him here early this morning. I am afraid that there will be no one in the garden to serve the girls' meals. I will send Qin Xian's woman to serve for the time being. The girls will go back to Grandma Ming. Clean and prudent, let him serve you often in the future." Ping'er said, "Who is Qin Xian's woman? I don't know her very well."

Lin Zhixiao's family said: "He goes to night in the south corner of the garden. He has nothing to do during the day, so the girls don't know each other very well. He is tall and lonely, with big eyes and the cleanest." Yu Chuan'er said: " That's right. Sister, why did you forget? He is the aunt of Siqi with the second girl. Although Siqi's parents are from the old man's side, his uncle is from our side." Ping'er listened, Fang thought about it and said with a smile: "Oh, if you said it was him, I would have understood." Then he laughed and said: "It's too urgent. Now the matter has come to light. There is also a master. It was Baoyu who came over that day and wanted something from these two karmic barriers, but these two karmic barriers made him stubborn, saying that his wife would not dare to take it when his wife was not at home. Baoyu then went in by himself when he saw his two unguarded seasons. What did I bring out? The two karmic barriers didn’t know, so they panicked. Now that Baoyu heard that he was tired of others, Fang told me in detail. Let me take out the things and see that nothing is bad. That Fulingshuang is Baoyu’s Those who got it from outside have also rewarded many people, not only those in the garden, but even the mothers and children begged out to give to relatives to eat, and then gave it to others. Xiren also gave it to people like Fangguan. They have different personal relationships Interacting with each other is also a common thing. The two baskets from before are still placed in the meeting hall, intact, and they can be messed with. I will talk about it when I go back to grandma." After finishing speaking, he withdrew into the bedroom and put the According to the preface, I went back to Sister Feng again.

Sister Feng said: "Although you say that, Baoyu loves to solicit things regardless of indiscriminateness. If others beg him to go, he can't hold back a few good words. Give him a charcoal basket to wear, and he won't agree to anything. If we Believe it, in the future, if the big thing is the same, how to govern people. You need to pursue it carefully. According to my idea, bring all the maids from the wife's house, although it is inconvenient to torture them, just let them be covered with magnetic tiles Kneeling under the sun, don't give him tea or rice. If you don't say kneeling for a day, you will be made of iron, and you can do it for a day. It is also true. Flies don't hug seamless eggs. Although the Liu family didn't Stealing, after all, there are some shadows, people say him. Although there is no punishment for thieves, it is not necessary. The court family used to report mistakes, but it is not wronged him."

Ping'er said: "Why bother to worry about this! When you have to let go, you have to let go', what a big deal, I am so happy that I don't show kindness. According to me, even if you put a hundred percent of your heart in this room, we will be together in the end. I went to the house over there. I didn’t have any villainous hatred and resentment. Besides, I was in a lot of troubles. I finally got pregnant with a brother and lost it in six or seven months. I don’t know if it’s not a normal day I've worked too much, and I'm angry and hurt. Now I can see half of it in the early morning, and I don't see half of it." After talking, Sister Feng laughed and said, "Let's let it go with your little hoof. I'm refreshing. It’s too late, don’t be naughty.” Ping’er laughed and said, “This is not serious!” After speaking, he turned around and came out to hand out one by one.You need to know the end, and listen to the next chapter to break it down.
