Dream of the Red Mansion

But it is said that after Daiyu decided to kill herself, she gradually became exhausted, and she died in one day.In the past ten days, Jia's mother and others took turns to visit, and he sometimes said a few words, but these two days he did not speak much at all.Although my heart is dizzy at times, it is also clear at times.When Jia Mu saw that his illness did not seem to have arisen for no reason, she also interrogated Zijuan Xueyan twice, and they dared to tell.It was Zicuckoo who wanted to ask Shishu for news, but was afraid that the more trouble would become true, and Daiyu would die sooner, so when she saw Shishu, she never mentioned it.That snow goose was caused by his rumor, at this time he wished he could grow a hundred mouths and say "I didn't say it", so naturally he didn't dare to mention it.On this day when Daiyu died, Zijuan was hopeless, so she watched and cried for a while, because she came out and secretly said to Xueyan: "You go into the house and watch him well. I'll go back to the old lady, The wife and the second mistress are going, today's situation is very different from what it used to be." Xueyan agreed, and Zijuan went by himself.

Here Xueyan is accompanying Daiyu in the house. Seeing him drowsy, I have seen him like this at a child's house. I only understand that this is the scene of death. I feel pain and fear in my heart, and I can't wait for Zijuan to come back soon. good.Just when she was afraid, she only heard footsteps outside the window, Xueyan knew that it was Zijuan who came back, so she was relieved, and quickly stood up and opened the inner curtain to wait for him.I saw a person coming in at the sound of the curtain outside, but he was a servant.The waiter was sent by Tanchun to see Daiyu. Seeing Xueyan lifting the curtain there, he asked, "how is the girl?" Xueyan nodded and asked him to come in.The servant book followed in and saw that Zijuan was not in the room. He looked at Daiyu, who was only panting slightly, and was so surprised that he asked, "where is sister Zijuan?" Xueyan said, "tell me to go to the house." At this time, the snow geese only excused Daiyu's ignorance, and seeing that Zijuan was not in front of her, she quietly took the hand of the servant and asked, "What did you tell me the day before yesterday that Mr. Wang gave it here?" Is Master Bao the truth when he said we are kissing?" The servant said: "Why is it not true. "Snow Yan said." How sooner or later did you decide? "

The waiter said: "It's settled there. When I told you that day, I heard Xiaohong say it. Later I went to the second grandma, and the second grandma was talking to sister Heping, saying that it was all the diners. Use this to please the master, so that you can win him over in the future. Don't say that the old lady is not good, if the old lady is willing to say that the girl is good, the old lady can see who she is in her eyes! Besides, the old lady I already have someone in my heart, and it's in our garden. The eldest lady can figure it out. The old lady just had to ask because of the master's words. I also heard the second grandmother say that the old lady always told me about Baoyu. It's for someone who wants to kiss as a kiss, whoever decides to kiss, it's useless anyway." Xueyan also forgot when she heard this, because she said: "How do you say, you gave us this one away for nothing. Doomed!" The servant said: "Where does this start?" Xueyan said: "You don't know yet. It was me and Sister Zijuan who talked about it the day before yesterday, and this one heard it and made it to this point The field is gone." The servant said: "Say it quietly, and he heard it if you look carefully." Xueyan said: "I have lost my mind about personnel, look, it's only been a day or two." As he was talking , I saw Zicuckoo lifted the curtain and came in and said: "It's okay! What do you have to say, don't go out and say it here, but just say it here. It's over if you just force him to death." The servant said: "I don't believe there is such a miracle. "Zicuckoo said: "Good sister, I didn't say it, you should be annoyed again. What do you know! If you know it, you won't spread such tongues."

The three people here were talking when Daiyu suddenly coughed again.Zijuan hurriedly ran to the edge of the Kang and stood there, and Xueyan, the attendant, was silent.Zijuan bent down and asked softly behind Daiyu: "Miss, please drink some water." Daiyu agreed slightly.Xueyan quickly poured the white water for half an hour, and Zijuan took it and supported it, and the servant book also came forward.Zicuckoo shook her head with him, but didn't ask him to talk, so the servant had to swallow.After standing for a while, Daiyu coughed again.Taking advantage of the situation, Zicuckoo asked, "Miss, do you drink water?" Daiyu responded slightly again, as if she wanted to lift her head, but she could lift it there.Zijuan climbed up the kang, climbed beside Daiyu, took the water to test the hot and cold, brought it to her lips, helped Daiyu's head, went to the bowl, and took a sip.When Zijuan was about to take it, Daiyu wanted to take another sip, so Zijuan held the bowl still.Daiyu took another sip, shook her head, stopped drinking, took a breath, and lay down still.Half a day later, Wei Wei opened his eyes and said, "Didn't you just talk to Shi Shu?" Zijuan agreed, "Yes." Shi Shu hadn't left yet, so he hurried over to greet him.Daiyu opened her eyes and looked at it, nodded her head, took a break again, and said, "Go back and ask your girl how she is."

When the waiter saw this scene, he thought Daiyu was annoying, so he had to leave quietly.It turns out that although Daiyu is seriously ill, she still understands it in her heart.At first, when Xueyan, the attendant of the book, was speaking, he also vaguely heard half of the sentence, but he just didn't know it, and because he really didn't have the energy to answer it.After listening to the words of Xueyan's servant book, I realized that the previous matter was discussed but not resolved, and the servant said that it was Sister Feng who said that the old lady's idea was to kiss her as a relative, and she lived in the garden. Who?So when I thought about it, the negative yang was born, and my mind suddenly felt much refreshed, so I only drank a couple of sips of water, and wanted to ask Shishu again.It happened that Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Li Wan and Sister Feng all rushed to see what Zicuckoo said.The suspicion in Daiyu's heart has been cleared, so naturally she doesn't seem to want to seek death before.Although physically weak and lacking in spirit, he reluctantly agreed to a sentence or two.Because Sister Feng called Zijuan, she asked, "That's not the case with girls. How can you say that you are bluffing people like this?" It’s a lot better, so it’s strange.” Jia Mu smiled and said, “Don’t blame him, what does he know. When he sees something wrong, he speaks. This is what he understands. For children, just don’t be lazy. " After saying this once, Mother Jia waited for nothing, so she went.exactly:

Heart disease must be treated with heart medicine, and the person who unties the bell is still the one who tied it.Not to mention that Daiyu's illness is gradually subsiding, but also that Xueyan and Zicuckoo are all chanting Buddha behind their backs.Xueyan said to Zijuan, "Thanks to him, he is cured. It's just that he's sick, and he's also strange when he's well." Yes. Things take a long time, and he said again. It’s a marriage that can’t be reversed. It seems that the two of them are actually a match. Besides, you think that year I said that Miss Lin was going back to the south. Baoyu didn't die in a hurry, causing the house to be turned into chaos. Now, with a single word, this one has been brought to life again. Don't you say that the Sansheng Stone was formed hundreds of years ago." As they spoke, the two quietly pursed their lips and smiled. back.Xueyan said again: "Fortunately, it's done. Let's not talk about it tomorrow. Even if Baoyu married another girl, I saw him get married there, and I will not say a word again." Zijuan laughed. "That's it." Not only Zijuan and Xueyan were particular about it in private, but everyone also knew that Daiyu's illness was strangely ill, and her recovery was also strangely good, chattering in twos and threes.Not long after, even Sister Feng knew about it, and Mrs. Xing Wang was also a little puzzled, but Jia Mu guessed a little bit.

At that time, Sister Feng, the second wife of King Xing, was gossiping in Jia's mother's room about Daiyu's illness.Jia Mu said: "I'm just going to tell you that Baoyu and Lin girl have been together since childhood. I just say children, what are you afraid of? From now on, I often hear that Lin girl suddenly gets sick and recovers suddenly. It's all because of something. I got it. So I think if they try to put them together, it will be inappropriate after all. What do you say?" Mrs. Wang was stunned when she heard this, and had to agree: "Miss Lin is a scheming girl. As for Baoyu , Dumbfounded and annoyed, there are some people who do not avoid suspicion. From the outside, they still have the image of a child. If that one is suddenly separated from the garden at this time, isn’t it revealing some traces. The ancient saying :. Men must marry, women must marry. The old lady thinks, it’s just a matter of rushing to get their affairs done.” Jia Mu frowned and said: “Although Lin’s eccentricity is also in his interest, I don't match Lin girl with him because of this idea. Besides, Lin girl is so weak, I'm afraid she won't have a long life. Only Bao girl is the best."

Mrs. Wang said: "Not only does the old lady think so, but we do too. But Miss Lin has to tell him about her family. Otherwise, when the girl's parents grow up, who has nothing to worry about? If you really have some selfish intentions with Baoyu, if you know Baoyu It's not going to be a big deal if you decide on Bao girl." Jia Mu said: "Of course I marry Baoyu first, and then tell Lin girl that she is someone else, and then I don't belong to an outsider first and then my own. Besides, Lin girl is two years younger than Baoyu. According to what you say, Baoyu is not allowed to let him know about his engagement." Sister Feng told all the girls: "You heard that Bao Erye's engagement is not allowed to make noise. If you talk too much, be on guard against him. skin." Jia Mu said to Sister Feng again: "Brother Feng, since you are not well now, you don't care much about the affairs of the garden. Let me tell you, you have to be careful. Not only this, but also like the year before last. It's not a problem for those people to drink and play for money. You should be more subtle, you must have more snacks, and you should be strict with them. Besides, I think they will only obey you." Sister Feng agreed.The girls said something again, and the parties parted ways.From then on, Sister Feng often went to the garden to take care of her.One day, as soon as I walked into the Grand View Garden and arrived at the bank of Zilingzhou, I only heard an old woman shouting there.When Sister Feng came to the front, the woman saw it. She had already stood with her hands down and greeted her.Sister Feng said, "What are you doing here?"

The mother-in-law said: "Grandma Meng sent me here to guard the flowers and fruits. I didn't make any mistakes. Unexpectedly, Miss Xing's girl said we were thieves." Sister Feng said, "Why?" Hei'er followed me here for a while, but he didn't know, so he went to Miss Xing to have a look, and I told him to go back. I got up early this morning and heard their girl say that they lost something. I asked him What, he asked me." Sister Feng said: "I don't need to be angry if I ask you." The mother-in-law said: "This garden belongs to grandma's house, not theirs. We are all grandma. How dare you recognize the thief's name." Sister Feng spat on her face, and said sharply, "Stop nagging me! You stay here to take care of me. If the girl loses something, you should ask me. How can you say such unreasonable things? Call Lao Lin and drive him out." The girls agreed.I saw Xing Xiuyan come out in a hurry, greeted Sister Feng with a smile and said, "It can't be done. It's nothing. It's over long ago." Sister Feng said, "Girl, that's not the case. It's too unreasonable to talk about things. Seeing the old lady kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, Xiuyan hurriedly asked Sister Feng to sit inside.Sister Feng said: "I know people like them. Except for me, he has no one else." Xiuyan begged for him repeatedly, only saying that her girl was not good.Sister Feng said, "For Miss Xing's sake, I'll forgive you this time." The old lady got up, kowtowed to Xiuyan, and then went out.

Here the two gave up their seats.Sister Feng asked with a smile, "What did you lose?" Xiuyan laughed and said, "It's nothing important. It's a little red jacket, which is old. I asked them to look for it, but if they can't find it, it's fine. The little girl is ignorant, so I asked the old woman, and the old woman naturally refused. This is because the little girl is ignorant and ignorant, and I scolded her a few times, it's over, so there's no need to mention it again." At a glance, although there are some leather clothes, they are already half-new and not old, so they may not be able to keep warm.His quilt is mostly thin.As for the things on the table in the room, they were brought by the old lady, but some of them didn't move, they were neatly tidied up.Sister Feng loved and respected him very much in her heart, and said, "It doesn't matter what a piece of clothing is. It's cold at this time, and it's close-fitting. Why don't you ask me. This wild slave is amazing!" Said it once, Sister Feng Come out, sit around for a while, and then go back.When he arrived at his room, he asked Ping'er to take a small red crepe jacket, a small leather jacket with pine and flower-colored silk and a bucket of pearls, a sapphire blue cotton skirt with brocade inlaid with flowers, and a Buddha green silver mouse jacket. Pack it up and ask someone to deliver it.

At that time Xiuyan was made a lot of noise by the old lady, even though Sister Feng came to suppress her, she still felt uneasy.Thinking of "Many sisters are here, and none of the servants dare to offend him. I am here alone. They talk a lot. Sister Feng came to meet me just now."I was swallowing my tears when I saw Feng'er from Sister Feng's side bringing clothes.Xiuyan saw it, but refused to accept it.Feng'er said: "Grandma told me that if the girl thinks it's an old dress, she will bring new ones in the future." Xiuyan thanked her with a smile, "Thanks to Grandma's kindness, but because I lost my clothes, he brought them. Don't dare to accept it. You take it back and thank your grandma, and I will take it for your grandma's kindness." Instead, she took a purse and gave it to Feng'er.That Feng'er had to take it.Not long after, Ping'er and Feng'er came over again. Xiuyan hurriedly greeted him and gave up his seat.Ping'er said with a smile: "Our grandma said that the girl is very heretic." Xiuyan said: "It's not a heretic, but I'm sorry." , just look down on our grandma. I just said, I want to take it back, but grandma doesn’t obey me." Xiuyan blushed and smiled and thanked: "I have said so, so I dare not refuse." Give another tea.

When Ping'er and Feng'er go back, they will go to Sister Feng's side. They meet an old woman sent by Xue's family, and then say hello.Ping'er then asked, "Where did you come from?" The mother-in-law said: "The ladies and girls over there asked me to come and greet all the ladies, grandma, and girls. I just asked about the girl in front of my grandma, saying that she came to the garden. But did you come from Miss Xing?" Ping'er said: "How do you know?" The mother-in-law said: "I heard it just now. Really, what the second grandma and the girls did is really impressive." Ping'er laughed He smiled and said, "Come back and sit down." The mother-in-law said, "I have something else to do, so come and see the girl some other day." She said and left.Ping'er came back and replied to Sister Feng.No problem.

Let's say that Aunt Xue's house was turned upside down by Jingui. When she saw the mother-in-law come back and tell about Xiuyan, Baochai's mother and daughter couldn't help but shed tears.Baochai said: "It's because my brother is not at home, so I asked Miss Xing to suffer for a few more days. It's not bad for Sister Feng now. We must also pay attention to the bottom, after all, it is our family." As he spoke, Xue Biao came in and said : "Brother, what kind of people have you met outside in the past few years, not even a serious one. When we get together, they are all gangsters. I don't think they are at ease there, but they will find out the news in the future. I have been out for the past two days. Later, I ordered the door not to allow such people to come in." Aunt Xue said: "Where are Jiang Yuhan and those people again?" Xue Biao said: "Jiang Yuhan didn't come, but someone else After hearing Xue Biao's words, Aunt Xue became sad again, and said, "Although I have a son, it seems that I don't have any now. Even if my boss approves, I'm still a useless person. Although you are my nephew, I see you You understand better than your brother. I will depend on you for the rest of my life. You must learn from now on. Besides, the daughter-in-law you hired is not as good as before. It is not easy for other girls to go out. I don't have any other thoughts, I just hope that my son-in-law is capable, and he will have a good time. Ruoxing girl is also like this." He pointed his hand inward and said: "I won't say anything. Xing girl is really a worthwhile person. Shameful and scheming, you can stay poor and endure the rich. It’s just that when our business is over and your serious business is over earlier, it’s also on my mind.” Xue Biao said: “Sister Qin hasn’t left the house yet. , this is something that bothers my wife. As for this, it’s nothing.” Everyone wentssip again.

Xue Biao went back to his room, had dinner, and remembered that Xing Xiuyan lived in the garden of Jia's mansion, and finally lived under the fence of others.Kuang Jian came together all the way back then, so he knew his appearance and character.It can be seen that God's will is uneven: people like Xia Jingui teach him to be rich and pampered so aggressively, and people like Xing Xiuyan teach him to suffer like this.When Hades judges, he doesn't know how to judge.When I think of boredom, I also want to chant a poem and write it out to express the depression in my chest.I also had no time to spare, so I had to write in confusion:

The dragon loses water like a dry fish, and the feelings of the two places live alone.

I have suffered a lot in the mud, and I don't know when the day will be clear.After reading it, I wanted to stick it on the wall, but I was embarrassed.He murmured to himself: "Don't be seen as a joke." He read it again, and said, "Whatever he does, just stick it on the left and right and watch it to relieve boredom." Read it again, it's not good, so I put it in the book inside.I also think that I am not too young, and I have encountered such sudden disasters at home, I don't know when it will end, resulting in a weak boudoir, making it so desolate and lonely.While thinking there, Baochan opened the door and came in, holding a box and putting it on the table with a smile.Xue Biao stood up and offered to sit down.Baochan smiled and said to Xue Biao: "This is four dishes of fruit and a small pot of wine. Grandma ordered them to be sent to the second master."

Xue Biao laughed and said: "Grandma is bothering you. But it's over if you ask the little girls to deliver it. Why do you have to work on your sister?" Baochan said: "It's easy to say. My family, why should the second master say such clichés. Besides, our uncle This matter is really worrying the second master. Grandma has wanted to make something herself to thank the second master for a long time, and she is afraid that others will be overwhelmed. The second master knows that our family agrees and disagrees. It doesn't matter if you give something. It’s very particular about making people talk about it. So I got a little bit of fruit and a pot of wine today, and asked me to deliver them quietly in person.” Then, he smiled and glanced at Xue Biao, and said, “Morrow Er Ye don't say these things again, it's embarrassing to listen to. We are just people at the bottom, and it doesn't matter if we wait on the uncle and wait on the second master." After all, I am young, but I have never seen Jingui and Baochan treat each other like this. I thought that it was reasonable for Baochan to say that it was about Xue Pan, because he said: "Leave the fruit, this wine, sister just take it back. I have always The wine is really limited, if you are crowded, you can drink for a minute occasionally, and you can't drink it if you have nothing to do on weekdays. Don't you know that grandma and sister don't know." Baochan said: "I am the master of everything else, this is the only thing. I don't dare to answer. The second master knows about grandma's temper, so I take it back, not that the second master doesn't drink, but that I don't do my best." Xue Biao had no choice but to stay.Just as Baochan was about to leave, he went to the door to look out, turned his head and smiled at Xue Biao, pointed inside and said, "He's just afraid that he's going to come and tell you how tired he is." Xue Biao didn't know what he meant, but instead He got up awkwardly, because he said: "Sister, please thank grandma for me. It's cold, so it's cold. Besides, my uncle and sister-in-law don't need to pay these gifts." Baochan didn't answer, and left with a smile.

At first Xue Biao thought that Jingui was Xue Pan's business, or he was really dissatisfied, and it was too late to prepare this wine and fruit for himself.When I saw Baochan's furtive and unembarrassing scene, I also felt a little bit.But he thought to himself: "He is a sister-in-law after all, there are other things to pay attention to. Maybe Baochan is not old enough, what if he is embarrassed, but points to Jingui's name, I don't know. But after all, it’s not good to be in my brother’s room.” Suddenly he changed his mind: “That Jingui’s nature has no boudoir principles, and sometimes she’s happy, and she dresses up in a seductive way. What? Otherwise, there is something wrong with him and Sister Qin, so this poisonous method is set up to drag me into the muddy water and give me an unclear name, I don't know." Thinking of it Here, I simply became afraid.When he was having a hard time making up his mind, he suddenly heard a chuckle outside the window, which made Xue Biao jump.I don't know who it is, I will break it down next time.
