Xichun, the first daughter of the Red Chamber

When Jia Lian found out about this, the dust had settled. He wanted to scold Jia Rong, but he couldn't scold Jia Rong and Qin Keqing when he looked sick.

Jia Lian opened his mouth, and finally asked them if they would go to Xiangshan Temple to burn incense.

"Recently there have been a lot of good things at home. Your aunt said that it must be the blessing of the Bodhisattva. She has manifested her spirit and she is going to pay her respects. It just so happens that the weather is fine recently, and everyone is busy and tired during this time. It's time to go out to relax and relax."

Jia Rong said: "It's inconvenient for Keqing and I now, so there's no way to go."

Jia Lian nodded, "Then I'll go ask my fourth sister."

Jia Lian got up and walked out, walked a few steps and couldn't help but stop, "Rong'er, go forward...don't look back." Don't regret it either.

Jia Rong's eyes turned sore, "Yes, Rong'er knows."

Xichun was very happy to know that she was going to Shangxiang. She asked carefully who was going and when. When she heard that Jia Rong and his wife didn't go, Xichun's face didn't change much.

On this day, Xichun got up early in the morning and went to You Shi's yard. You Shi and You's Second Sister and You Third Sister were also ready, and the group went to Jia Jing's place before going out.

The steward had already set up the carriage, and Xichun found out that the steward was accompanied by an acquaintance, not someone else, but steward Yu.

Seeing them, Guanshi Yu also had a smile in his eyes, and saluted with a smile, Xichun also hurriedly shouted.

A group of people got into the carriage again and joined the Xing family. Finally, Wang Xifeng of the Xing family rode in a carriage, Youshi and his second sister You Sanjie rode in a carriage, Yingchun Xichun rode in a carriage, and Jia Lian Yu steward rode a horse with the carriage. .

Yingchun and Xichun secretly lifted the curtain of the car, pointing at the things outside and talking non-stop.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, they got out of the carriage again and walked up the mountain in a rented sedan chair, stopping only at the gate of the monastery.

The adults burned incense and worshiped Buddha, but Xichun and the others couldn't stay, they were released to play after a while, and Wang Xifengyou of the Xing family went to ask the eminent monk to release the lottery.

Third Sister You couldn't walk when she saw the Forest of Steles, and Second Sister You had to accompany her, but Xichun took Yingchun to see Hongfeng.

The most famous thing in Xiangshan Temple is this piece of red maple forest. Walking on the trail in the forest, you can see all kinds of red, splashing and splashing, bright and dazzling, as if the maple leaves have vitality.

Xichun couldn't help praising: "The ancients said that frost leaves are as red as flowers in February. Now it seems that it is true."

Yingchun also nodded, and picked up a lot of maple leaves from the ground for Siqi to put away, ready to take them back as bookmarks.

Seeing her, Xichun said, "Second sister is done, don't forget to give me a copy."

"No." Yingchun didn't even look at her, just squatted on the ground to check if there were any good maple leaves, "I want to make it myself."

Xichun went up to obsessively, "My good sister, you have to do it anyway, wouldn't it be convenient and easy to just do my share? It will save me from rushing to do it again, which is very troublesome."

"You think it's troublesome to do it, so I won't be troublesome if I do it?" Yingchun bit Xichun's forehead bitterly, but didn't say no to Xichun.

Xichun rubbed her forehead and laughed.

Making bookmarks with leaves was something she thought of and started doing by chance. She failed many times before she succeeded. Yingchun happened to see the bookmarks she made and fell in love with them. Xichun taught her how to make bookmarks. I find it troublesome and refuse to do it again, and every time I see Yingchun's newly made bookmarks, I will ask for it.

"I know that the second sister is the best!"

"Before when your elder sister Lin gave you a collection of poems, you wrote to say that she was the best, and when the third younger sister helped you become a female celebrity, you said that the third elder sister was the best. Why, now you say that I am the best?"

Xichun shook Yingchun's hand, "Am I that kind of person? In my heart, sisters are all the best, there is no one, two, or three."

Yingchun was angry and funny, "It's all sweet talk."

Xichun said sternly: "Why is this just a rhetoric? This is obviously my sister's sincerity! Alas! It's a pity that my sister's heart is for the bright moon, but the bright moon shines in the ditch."

At the end, Xichun started to pretend again, and covered half of her face with her sleeve.

Yingchun couldn't bear it anymore, she stretched out her hand to hit Xichun, but Xichun ran away with an exclamation, "Oh, second sister, I was wrong!"

Yingchun also ran after Xichun, "You know you're wrong and you still run? Stop!"

The two laughed and quarreled for a while before they stopped, Yingchun dragged Xichun to the wing room, Xichun was thirsty as soon as she sat down.

Yingchun took the tea from the table, "These are cold, and you won't feel sick after drinking them. The hot tea will be delivered in a while, bear with it!"

Xichun had no choice but to bear it, lying on the table and staring at Yingchun, muttering non-stop.

Yingchun looked at her, and the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, "Don't think I don't know you're talking bad about me, if you go on talking, I'll tell the mothers and sisters about your performance today."

Xichun sat up straight in an instant, "Where did I say anything bad about Second Sister? Second Sister is so good, I can't even praise her. I was just talking about why the tea hasn't come yet."

As soon as the words fell, Li Chun came in with tea.

Yingchun directly moved her cup of tea to Xichun, "Aren't you thirsty? I'll give you mine too."

Xichun hurriedly moved it back, "Second sister is also thirsty."

Yingchun took the tea, and put the teapot in front of Xichun, "Don't worry, fourth sister, there is enough tea for today, fourth younger sister can drink as much as she wants, she will never be thirsty, Siqi is still burning a pot."

Xichun: "...Thank you, Second Sister."

Yingchun smiled softly, "It's what my sister should do, you're welcome."

Xichun: "..."

Xichun got lazy after drinking tea and lying on the table again, Yingchun glanced at her and said nothing.

In the past few years, Yingchun has been able to go out with Wang Xifeng sometimes, but Xichun has never been out of the house since returning from Lingnan. Today, when she suddenly went out, she felt a little carried away. Yingchun felt sorry for her being bored, and couldn't bear to talk about her .

"It's a pity that the third sister didn't come, otherwise today would be a really fun day." Xichun sighed.

Yingchun also sighed, "But she is tightly controlled now, it's hard to see us on weekdays, let alone come out to play?"

Then, Yingchun told the story of Baoyu being beaten a few days ago, and Xichun frowned after hearing it.

Yingchun also looked scared, "Fortunately, my father is not like the second master. I heard that the injuries on Xiren and the others are still not healed."

Xichun thought of something else, "I'm afraid that the second wife is angry, and she's going to attack the third sister and the others again."

Yingchun comforted Xichun, "Don't worry, the third sister also has a plan in her heart. She didn't fudge the money you sent before, but just took it. I secretly told her contacts and she can turn them around. Now she just looks Difficulties, big losses are unbearable.”

"But this is not the way." Xichun whispered: "And... the third sister is getting older..." What if Mrs. Wang makes a fuss about her marriage?That's a lifetime thing.

Yingchun also understood what Xichun meant, but she had no choice but to comfort Xichun, "Don't worry, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, and the third sister will have good luck."

Seeing that Xichun was still unhappy, Yingchun reached out and pinched her face, "I forgot to ask, you child, where did you hear these words?"

Xichun was caught in the face and couldn't escape, but she still had a smile on her face, "What's wrong with my words?"

Yingchun raised her eyebrows, and Xichun admitted her cowardice, "I only heard the women talking by accident." After finishing speaking, he added, "I won't talk nonsense."

In the past few years, Yingchun has become more and more like an elder sister. She is very fond of her two younger sisters, but she is also very strict with her. It is one thing for Xichun to dare to fight with Yingchun, but another to make Yingchun angry.

Yingchun knew that Xichun was smart, but she didn't expect Xichun to be so precocious. A girl who said these words on her lips would cause accidents if outsiders heard her.

Yingchun pinches Xichun's face and refuses to let go, only letting Xichun reassure her again and again.

After letting go, Xichun covered her face and rubbed it slowly. Seeing Yingchun, she was a little worried that she was going too hard, "Come here and let me have a look."

Xichun moved her hands away and brought her face closer, Yingchun knew that she had been cheated again when she saw that there was no red marks, and she was about to strike as soon as she raised her eyebrows.

Seeing that the situation is not good, Xichun throws herself into Yingchun's arms, calling her second sister to act like a spoiled child.

Yingchun had no choice but to pat her body a few times to relieve her anger.

Xichun lay in Yingchun's arms and refused to get up, "Second sister, I heard people say that second sister is getting older and is leaving home. They also said that many people came to marry second sister, matchmakers came every day, second sister , I don't want you to go."

Xichun really didn't expect that Yingchun would choose a husband and son-in-law now, but everyone else thought it was normal. Yingchun is now fourteen, engaged in marriage, and after completing three letters and six engagements, she will be fifteen or sixteen, which is just right.

Yingchun paused, and slowly stroked Yingchun's hair, "Girls are like this, your elder sister Lin will be like this, third younger sister will be like this, and you will too."

Xichun murmured: "I know, but I don't want to be separated from my sisters, otherwise, let's not leave home and let them come and live with us!"

Yingchun's sentimentality disappeared in an instant: "What nonsense are you talking about?! Get up!"

Xichun sat up, her mouth still curled up, "That's what it is, I heard from the women that there are girls who don't leave the house, and men come to the door."

Yingchun laughed, "Really? It seems that the women in your yard have to change."

Xichun shuddered and dared not say any more.

Yingchun straightened her clothes, "It's almost time, you should pack up too."

The two tidied themselves up and went to the forest of steles to look for the second sister You and the third sister. It was rare for Xichun to come out to play, so she felt that a moment could not be wasted, and walked ahead all the way, stepping on small stone bricks of different colors under her feet.

When Yingchun met, she began to talk about her again, telling her to walk well, Xichun lowered her head and said yes, but she didn't change.

As she was walking, Xichun saw a pair of boots blocking her way, Xichun subconsciously took a step aside, and the boots followed suit.

Xichun looked up and saw a handsome young man in black looking at her and smiling.

The boy looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, and a few steps behind him was a year-old man who was also dressed in black and looked at him with disgust.

Xichun subconsciously took a step back, and Yingchun stepped forward to stand in front of Xichun.

Seeing that the two sisters were wary of him, the boy didn't seem annoyed, he still looked at Xichun with a smile.

Yingchun frowned slightly and then loosened her brows, bowing to the other party, "My sister is young, she accidentally bumped into the young master, I hope the young master will not be offended."

The boy burst out laughing, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but sister Mei still recognizes me?"
