The Red Mansions

Chapter 859 Li Wan: What Waner?It's really embarrassing

Song Guofu, the courtyard where Sister Feng lives

Just when Aunt Xue made up her mind about her daughter and Jia Heng's life, Sister Feng and Ping'er returned to the slightly gloomy and dark courtyard.

It was almost the hour of Hai, and the biting cold wind of the winter night was already a bit biting. Fortunately, the master and servants were all dressed thickly.

In the inner room, Ping'er lit the candlestick on the small table, and suddenly a cluster of red and orange candlelight dispelled the darkness, and a few servant girls went to fiddle with the fire, and put ice cream and agarwood in the smoked cage, As it was lit, a few green smoke curled up, and the aroma dissipated.

All of a sudden, from the warm and lively Ningguo Mansion's back hall to the desolate and desolate courtyard where she lived, Sister Feng's gorgeous face was obviously covered with a layer of loneliness. She took off the cloak on her body and came to the Sit down inside.

"Grandma." Looking at Sister Feng with a dazed face, Ping'er called in a low voice, and then ordered the maid to prepare hot water for Sister Feng to wash her feet and go to sleep.

Sister Feng came to the soft mattress of the bed and sat down, her eyes darkened, and she sighed softly.

At this time, the servant girl brought a steaming wooden basin, and Ping'er squatted down to help Sister Feng remove her shoes and socks. She raised her face, and the soft candlelight splashed on her mellow cheeks like water, as if washing away With a tired look on his face, he said softly, "Grandma, wash your feet first."

Sister Feng sighed suddenly and said, "Every day, when will you be the boss?"

Hearing this, Ping'er's busy hands froze and his heart skipped a beat, but he didn't dare to respond, he just put down the hot water and put a pair of tender feet into the wooden basin.

The warm water ran across the young woman's jade feet, and Sister Feng couldn't help shivering, snorted, blushed a little, and said, "Ping'er, let the garden be tidied up these few days, and send maids inside to wait. Let a group of girls stay in in a few days."

"Yes, grandma." Ping'er responded softly.

Sister Feng said: "Brother Heng went to the south of the Yangtze River and brought two girls from the Zhen family, and the other is his concubine, this Brother Heng"

Ping'er said: "Didn't the fourth girl of the Zhen family come back with the uncle under the entrustment of the old lady of the Zhen family?"

Sister Feng smiled and said: "You heard them say they are beautiful, if he wants to, who can put someone in his arms? Besides, how can there be a cat in this world that doesn't steal?"

The mandarin ducks of the old lady went south this time, and when she saw her this afternoon, she obviously felt that her facial features and figure had a charming charm of human affairs. Obviously, this time she went south by Brother Heng...

Not to mention, Brother Heng was messing around with Qingwen in the study that day, doing all those things.

The young woman suddenly remembered the scene that day, and felt her heart palpitate slightly. With a splash, the water in the basin suddenly sizzled.

Ping'er said, "Grandma, what are you thinking?"

Sister Feng smiled lightly, and said, "Well, it's okay, come on, just wipe it off, it's not dirty, and no man will bother you if you lie on the bed."

Ping'er blushed, and said, "Grandma really is."

It feels like grandma hasn't had sex for more than a year since Second Master Lian was exiled.

Sister Feng absently washed her feet and wiped them with a cloth towel. Undoubtedly feeling warm for a while, she looked at Ping'er, pursed her lips, hesitated, and said, "Ping'er, go get that thing over here. .”

Seeing surprise in his eyes, Ping'er tried to persuade him: "Grandma, this can't be done twice a day. After a long time, my body... how can I do it?"

Sister Feng held a handkerchief in her hand, twisted it lightly, and said softly, "Just this time, go get it."

Today, that person is becoming more and more imposing. He is probably reuniting with Keqing after a long absence. She is also...

Thinking like this, the handkerchief in his palm could not help but clenched a little bit, and this handkerchief was originally left by the boy.

The current Sister Feng is actually a bit like Jia Rui who has taken the treasure of Fengyue, unrestrained and addicted to it.

However, as the threshold increased, the buff brought by the handkerchief gradually lost its effect. In short, drug resistance developed.

Ping'er sighed and had no choice but to act according to his words.

It was midnight, the night was as cool as water, and the cold wind whizzed in the square courtyard, the entire courtyards and rooms of the Ningrong and Rongfu were quiet, only the sound of the watchman's clapper came from a distance. Come.

In another courtyard where Li Wan lived, looking at the sparse plum blossom branches swaying in the cold wind, a few lanterns came up the steps from the moon gate with clusters of hazy yellow lights, and came along the corridor. The lights under the eaves of the corridor reflect a beautiful woman with a slim figure and elegant makeup.

The beauty is wearing a white cloak with ivory-colored base and blue pattern trimmed with a white rail, a frost-colored cross-collar jacket inside, and a light blue pleated horse-face skirt.

Accompanied by the maids Suyun and Biyue, Li Wan stepped into the courtyard, stood under the veranda, stared at the west wing, and entered into it with a slight movement in his heart.

At this moment, Mrs. Cao had just made the bed, and was telling her two daughters, Li Wen and Li Qi, who were still holding books and watching by the lamplight, to stop reading and wash their feet to go to bed.

"Young girl, you are here." Hearing the sound of footsteps and calls from outside, Cao raised her eyes to look at Li Wan and said in surprise.

Li Wan entered the wing room, with a slight smile on her beautiful face, she asked, "Auntie, is it cold here, but is there something missing, is there anything missing?"

Cao's face was full of smiles, and said: "A lot of things, I put a few quilts earlier, and the coal stove was lit, so the room is quite warm."

This afternoon, Sister Feng had already arranged all the settlement matters assigned by Jia's mother. The Cao family, Li Wen, and Li Qi's mother and daughter were arranged in the courtyard where Li Wan lived.

Li Wan nodded, looked at his two cousins ​​who had put down the books, and said softly, "Wen'er, Qi'er, what are you two missing? Tell me what you are short of. You are only here as a It’s like your own home, so you don’t have to be restrained.”

Li Wen is the elder sister, older, quieter and more sensible, upon hearing this, she replied: "Thank you for your concern, elder sister, everything here is complete, there is nothing missing."

The two sisters came to Ningrong and Rongfu. It is not considered that Grandma Liu entered Rongguo Mansion for the first time. She felt strange when she saw everything. After all, she stayed in Ningguo Mansion for a long time when she was in Jinling.

Li Qi also stared at her cousin and said, "Sister."

Cao Shi looked at Li Wan and said, "Young girl, sit down and talk first."

Li Wan nodded, sat down, looked at his two quiet and beautiful cousins, thought for a while, and said: "Brother Bao usually does nothing, and the old lady loves him very much. That’s fine, try not to argue with him too much, if you’re really bored, just follow me to the East Mansion to have fun, there’s no hindrance to the East Mansion.”

After Baoyu molested Jin Chuan back then, causing Jin Chuan to throw himself into the well, plus other various things, in the eyes of women like Li Wan, they had a somewhat bad impression of Baoyu.

Li Wen and Li Qi nodded, and the two sisters looked at each other, but they clearly remembered the round-faced boy who looked at his sister obsessively.

Not any girl can bear that "burning like a thief" idiotic gaze.

Mrs. Cao smiled lightly, and said: "Before I came here, I heard that there is a man named Baoyu in the house, who is very favored by the old lady and the wife. I saw it just now. I heard that he is studying in the school?"

It means that since you are in the school, you shouldn't harass your daughter, right?
Li Wan said softly: "Recently, the Chinese New Year is approaching, and the school will also be on holiday. He usually has a weird temperament. In the past, he was often angry with Sister Lin."

Li Wan couldn't help being worried, because Baoyu's temperament was to like young girls, and if she frightened the two younger sisters, she would not be easy to deal with as a sister-in-law.

After all, her natal family is much closer than a younger brother-in-law, but the young woman Huaxin said in a vague way, so far.

Li Wan stared at Mrs. Cao, and said, "Auntie, there is nothing wrong with Dongfu. Normally, Wen'er and Qier can go to Dongfu from time to time, and there is no hindrance. By the way, why did Auntie come here with Brother Heng?" ?”

Mrs. Cao hurriedly laughed and said: "When I was in Jinling, I went to Ningguo Mansion to visit and met Mrs. You. Later, I often went to Ning Mansion as guests. Wen'er and Qi'er lived in Ningguo Mansion."

Li Wan nodded and said, "Brother Heng has nothing to say."

Cao said with a smile: "Brother Heng is really a young and handsome man of the Jia clan. He was awarded a first-class title because of his meritorious service at a young age. When he made great achievements in the southern province, Wen'er and Qi'er and I also met. passed."

Li Wan smiled and said, "I don't know how the battle was fought at that time?"

Mrs. Cao said softly: "The situation in Jinling was very urgent at that time, the people in the city were panicked, and there was a scene of chaos. Brother Heng left Jinling City to fight, and the family was not less worried."

"I read in the mansion newspaper that...well, it's not easy." Li Wan said softly.

Ah, I almost slipped the tongue, what does she usually do when she reads the mansion newspaper?
No, she was also curious for a while, which is the same reason that Brother Heng borrowed the history books of the Kingdom from Lang Geer to study.

This thought was born in the young woman's heart, suppressing a trace of whimsy in the depths of her heart.

Cao's mind was also keen, and when she caught a strange look in Li Wan's expression, her eyes flickered, but she didn't look into it carefully.

Li Wen said softly: "Elder Sister, Brother Heng even visited Uncle at the residence several times."

Hearing this, Li Wan's heart moved slightly, and her elegant and graceful face froze for a moment, with doubts in her eyes.

What did Brother Heng go to see his father for?
Li Qi's pretty face like the petals of morning glory showed the color of memory, and said: "Brother Heng has been there several times."

Li Wan said in a low voice: "It may be relatives walking around, it's just a normal thing."

Mrs. Cao looked at Li Wan and said, "Girl Wan, your father sent you a letter."

With that said, he got up, took out a letter from the stack of books on the desk behind him, and handed it to Li Wan.

"Then I'll go back and have a look." Li Wanyu paused for a moment, took the letter, then left Cao's room, and went to open the letter.

Li Wan returned to the wing room, finished reading the letter, looked up at a bronze mirror on the dressing table, looked at the face in the mirror, and sighed faintly.

Li Shouzhong's letter was naturally to allow Li Wan to serve his in-laws in Rongguo Mansion with peace of mind and educate Jia Lan well, nothing else was said.

In fact, Li Wan didn't know what to expect, his life was like a pool of stagnant water, always hoping that a boulder would fall into it.

"Grandma, drink tea, it's time to rest." The servant girl Su Yun took a cup of tea, handed it over, and said softly.

Li Wan took the teacup and took a sip, his eyes slightly absent-minded.

The scenery of the Marquis, the appearance of everyone celebrating, seems to be lingering, lingering in my heart.

After washing his feet, Li Wan got on the bed and covered himself with a quilt. After thinking about it, he finally fell asleep instead of rewarding himself.

The night is flowing like water, the fog gradually thickens outside the window, and the cold air of winter fills the world.

As time passed, the beauty was confused and drowsy, and suddenly the scene in front of her eyes changed, the sky was gray and seemed to be a little cold.

From a bird's-eye view, it looks like a chessboard-like Han Shenjing. A drop of autumn rain the size of a soybean falls quickly, passing through the lingering clouds and mist, and falling on the bluestone road in front of the wicker alley on Ningrong Street.

At the end of a long, straight alley, there was the faint sound of a carriage rattling. Several children who were at the entrance of the alley clapped their hands and laughed. When they heard the movement of the carriage, they hurriedly dispersed and looked curiously at the carriage stopped in the alley.

"Grandma, Master Heng is here." The servant girl Suyun lifted the blue cotton curtain and said softly.

While speaking, a woman with bead hairpin jewelry on her head and elegant blue floral dress came down from the carriage. I can't see the facial features clearly.

As time passed, the young woman's maid knocked on the door knocker, and with a "squeak", the tightly closed door opened.

Not long after, a young man in a blue shirt and cloth shoes was standing tall, with a shy and respectful expression on his face.

"So it's Mrs. Zhu." The young man cupped his hands and said.

Then there was a conversation, between the light and shadow changes, the woman consciously followed the boy into the house, looked around, saw the couplet on it, some couldn't see it clearly, but Li Wan knew it clearly: "The sound of the wind The sound of the rain and the sound of reading, the sound is in the ears; family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, and everything is concerned."

"Brother Heng, you shouldn't have given Lan Geer so much sweet food, it's the sour food." Li Wan said softly.

The boy cupped his hands and said a word of apology, then turned around and took a book from the neatly placed desk.

Li Wan was about to reach out to pick up the book.

Suddenly at this moment, seeing the light and shadow change during the conversation, and I was suddenly pulled into the arms of the young man, I was slightly startled, and then a gentle and domineering breath hit my face.

"Brother Heng, what are you... what are you doing?" Li Wan suddenly felt that he could not move at all, as if a ghost was pressing the bed, which made Li Xin feel a wave of fear.

As Freud said, the dream itself is a true reflection of the subconscious, not an association formed by chance, but a repressed desire, which is satisfied in the dream.

And this fear comes from another layer of subconscious ethical self-restraint.

It's like wetting the bed when I was a child. In the dream mirror, I looked for the toilet everywhere, but I found a place where there was no one and drenched happily. In the end... I peed on the kang.

At this moment, the young man's cold voice faintly sounded in his ears, saying with a little haste, "Wan'er, I want you."

Li Wanfang was startled, and hurriedly said: "Brother Heng, you... how could you call me by my boudoir name."

The young woman struggled violently, but couldn't break free no matter what.

"Good sister-in-law, just give it to me." The young man's deep and somewhat gentle voice sounded in his ears, which made Li Wan startled and panicked, but it seemed as if roots had taken root under his feet, and he couldn't escape no matter what.

In fact, Jia Heng would never say such greasy words, and everything in the dream is often the self-woven and imagination of the dream master.

Li Wan said anxiously: "Heng...Brother Heng, we can't do it."

However, the young man said all kinds of provocative words, and then there was a "crash", Li Wan felt pressed on the table, and his eyes gradually lost focus, focusing on the two couplets hanging on the wall.

There seems to be a strong wind outside the window, and the autumn rain is pattering, patting the pomegranate tree in the courtyard, and small pale yellow flowers fall to the ground, how many flowers fall in the dream.

I don't know how long it took, but Li Wan's whole body was limp, his heart was pounding, and the boy's words sounded in his ears, saying: "Come tomorrow, please give Wan'er a... order."

The voice behind was barely audible, but it made Li Wan's cheeks blush, his heart jumped into his throat, excitement and panic intertwined repeatedly in the dream.

The light and shadow are like fragments, changing repeatedly, misty and intertwined. For some reason, everything in front of me suddenly turned into a bridal chamber. I was wearing a fiery red wedding dress, feeling uneasy and fearful. At this moment, hurried footsteps came from the outside, and then, A young man with a blurry face, wearing a groom's official costume.

"Lady, it's time to rest." Knowing that Qing was her husband, Li Wan breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Husband, why are you drinking so much?"

It is said that today is the wedding day, and it is impossible for Li Wan, who is wearing a red hijab, to be so close to nature all of a sudden, but the dream is originally a splicing of various fragments of consciousness.

He only heard the voice say: "Liang Daolang of the Imperial College said, I have enough lessons, and I will be rewarded for my career this year."

"Okay, lady, it's getting late, let's rest."

Li Wan was thinking about her husband's words, and immediately, that turbulent feeling came over again, but through the candlelight, she saw a cold and serious face.

"Brother Heng, you... what?"

Then suddenly that face turned into Jia Zhu again, and then into Jia Heng again, the light and shadow flowed, and the dream scene changed rapidly

Li Wan woke up suddenly and said, "Ah..."

The beauty on the bed woke up suddenly, but she didn't realize it. At that time, it was already three quarters of the ugly hour, and the cold air invaded. I don't know when the fire had been extinguished, and the room was chilly, and the coolness in the quilt invaded from the skin.

However, Li Wan felt hot all over his body, and his delicate body was soft. He quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the temples and cheeks were also covered with beads of sweat. It's a nightmare."

It was just the scene in the dream just now, but it seemed to be surging in the lake of heart, especially the face that was difficult to distinguish at the end made the young woman both ashamed and throbbing.

The bright and charming cheeks of the young woman Huaxin were glowing like clouds, her heart was pounding in her chest, she was about to get up, when suddenly she felt wet and slippery under her body, she was slightly startled, then her cheeks turned redder, and she bent forward. Wan Xiu's brows were furrowed a little, a grunt sounded from her nostrils, and she bit her lower lip with her white teeth.

What dude?It's really embarrassing.

Brother Heng, he definitely can't...it's impossible to call her like this, what kind of messed up dream is she having?
And my husband, why can't she remember his face?
No, she actually thought of her husband earlier, it must be.

The young woman quickly chanted the Buddha's name in her heart, she said it repeatedly in her heart, and tidied up, but she couldn't fall asleep anyway, and her thoughts began to fly, thinking wildly.

The first-class Mrs. Hou should be a super product?Now Keqing is a first-class imperial order, how much does your salary seem to be?In the future, Keqing will have a child. If it is a boy, it will be the young master, right?
In short, all kinds of trivial thoughts were tossing and turning in her heart, until a few cock crows could be faintly heard in the distance, the young woman felt her eyelids heavy and fell into a deep sleep.
