[Red Chamber] Jia Lian has an ancestor system

Jia Lian sent Lin Hong out of the house, walked a few steps along the street, and found a quiet corner to talk.

Lin Hong praised unabashedly: "Although I thought our girl must be outstanding before, I don't want to see her today, but she is such a beautiful and beautiful woman, which is far beyond expectations."

Jia Lian laughed and said, "That's natural. Today I'm in a hurry, and everyone seems cautious, so you can't see anything. If it's normal—"

"You can't put it that way. The so-called poetic and literary spirit in your stomach, the girl is proficient in poetry and calligraphy, and her temperament is high, but you can tell it at a glance." Lin Hong was full of praise, and thanked, "I really want to thank you You have trained the girl to be as spotless as a lotus, when I saw her, I was so happy that I really didn't know what to say."

But Jia Lian said: "When my aunt was at home, she was a rich lady, and my uncle was a prostitute. The quality of the parents is already high-quality. It is reasonable for the daughter to have good character. We didn't deliberately cultivate it."

"That's right, Mrs. and Mrs. are just waiting for you..." Lin Hong said firmly, "Now that I have met the girl, I feel more confident and measured, so I will leave today."

Lin Hong beckoned not far away, and an attendant came over. Jia Lian watched them walk for a while before returning to the mansion.

In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Lin Daiyu was sitting at the front of the table holding the jasper finger and couldn't help but be dazzled.

Zijuan came over with tea and said, "Girl, this uncle is really a man of affection. From now on, the girl will have relatives in Beijing."

Lin Daiyu continued to stare at the names of her parents on the finger, and murmured: "When I was young, he worked with my father in the mansion. When my father passed away, he also contributed a lot. It can be seen that he is a capable person. However, since he has been in Beijing for two or three years, I still can't figure out why he came to the mansion at this time."

Zijuan helped to explain: "Perhaps he just came to Beijing, things are complicated, and he is not familiar with the place, so it's not easy to come to the mansion rashly. Fortunately, the second master Lian went to Gusu this time, so he heard Tell him that he is here, otherwise your uncles and nephews will not see you until when."

Lin Daiyu glanced at Zijuan, and said: "You kiss him three times more than I kiss him. You kiss each uncle. People who don't know think it's your uncle who came."

Zijuan grinned and said, "I'm happy for the girl."

"Don't just be happy, go find a box, and I'll put this jade finger away."

While tidying up, Xueyan came in from the outside and said: "I just went to the garden, and I heard they said that it is now an empty house in Teng Mansion, and said that the second master Bao moved out of the garden as soon as spring began."

Daiyu's heart was empty, although she had heard that Mrs. Wang intended to move Baoyu out of the garden, but she still felt a little flustered when she heard the truth.

Zijuan supported Daiyu and asked Xueyan: "Who are you listening to nonsense? Now that the Lantern Festival has just passed and the first month has not yet come out, why do you start to vacate the house and move? Don't avoid it."

Xueyan muttered: "I heard from Xiren's sister that my wife has already selected a house and is just waiting to move in on an auspicious day after the first lunar month."

But Daiyu calmed down, and said: "I think it's just a relocation of the yard, it's not considered a formal move, and there's nothing to avoid."

"Girl, don't be sad—" Zijuan comforted, "I said last year that the brothers and sisters in the garden are getting older, and they are going to let Second Master Bao move out, and it's just moving out. Second Master can come whenever he wants... ..."

Daiyu walked out of the door on her own, and murmured: "I am not sad. When I meet you, there will be a difference. When I get along with you, there will be a difference. It's just a matter of time."

Hearing these meaningful words, Zijuan couldn't help becoming more worried, and chased after her, only to find that Daiyu didn't even shed tears.

She said, "Girl, why don't I accompany you to the garden."

"What can I do if I go shopping again, I'm going to leave after all..."

Hearing this, Zijuan was really discouraged and insisted on walking around with Miss Lin, and finally arrived at Changcui Temple unknowingly.

Miaoyu was reading scriptures in the nunnery, when she heard that Daiyu was coming, she put down the scriptures and came out to welcome her: "I originally wanted to be quiet in the nunnery today, but I couldn't be quiet if I didn't want to. Finished downloading."

But found that Daiyu's face was a little lost, and asked coldly: "Why, is it possible that someone is angry with you again?"

Zijuan winked desperately at the side, Miaoyu saw this, and said: "In my opinion, all the troubles are added by yourself, and you can't blame others."

Daiyu didn't speak, nor did she feel embarrassed, she just asked: "Aren't you going to play chess?"

Zijuan said: "Girl, it's time for dinner again, how about—"

Miaoyu took over the words: "Why don't you just have a fast at my place, be more pure-hearted and ascetic, let's drink tea and play chess."

Daiyu: "Alright."

Zijuan felt that only Miaoyu could control the girl in this garden, so while they were drinking tea, she followed a maid named Hanmei in the nunnery to the back kitchen to prepare the girl's favorite vegetarian meal.

Miaoyu's vegetarian food has always been exquisite, and it's Chinese New Year, so it's richer than usual.

Zijuan praised her again and again, and said to Hanmei: "Our girl is actually very happy today. A distant uncle in Beijing just came to visit her."

Han Mei said, "No wonder Miss Lin looks sad. She thinks it's because of her uncle's departure. She misses her parents and relatives?"

"kind of."

"It's a coincidence that our girl also received a man who served the master a few days ago. It's hard for him to be so old. I heard that he has been looking for a girl. After meeting the second master Lian in Gusu, he found the girl... ..."

"Such an adventure..." Zijuan said, "Don't you think it's strange, the reason why Uncle Lin came here is also because of Second Master Lian..."

Zijuan thought to himself, how many good things has this Lian Erye done in a row!

It has been cloudy for a few days, and it is rare that there is some sunshine today. Daiyu and Miaoyu are enjoying tea in the warm sun in the courtyard.Daiyu asked: "The water used to make tea today has a faint scent of lotus, but is there dew on the lotus picked?"

Miaoyu nodded: "You're right this time, you collected them all when the mist rose in the early morning of June."

Zijuan and Hanmei came over with some snacks and fruits, and just as they were setting out a few exquisite dishes, they heard Tanchun's voice outside the nunnery.

"Can someone open the door for us?"

When I opened the door, it turned out that Tanchun and Xiuyan were standing outside the door.

Tanchun originally wanted to go to Xiaoxiang Hall to look for Daiyu, but found that she was not at home. He met Xiuyan on the way, so he came to Changcui Temple together, but saw Xiaoxiang concubine was also here.

Tanchun couldn't help saying: "I thought you went to the old lady's place."

The courtyard was warm, and a red plum blossom was just in bloom. Tanchun looked at Danzhu and said, "This red plum blooms really well, can you pick a branch for me?"

Miaoyu said: "No matter how good Chunmei is, it can't compare with Dongmei. You can fold it if you want."

Tanchun sat down and sighed: "Second elder sister left the cabinet, elder sister Bao moved away, and Miss Qin picked her up, but Xiangyun didn't come again, and the garden became more and more quiet. Now I heard that second elder brother will also move into the mansion soon. ... My heart is like a garden, empty."

Only then did Daiyu's mood improve, but she was a little saddened by Tanchun's words.Miaoyu glanced at Daiyu, and then she understood why she lost her soul, and said: "I said why you lost your soul, that's why. You're going to be separated, so why be sentimental."

"Having said that, of course we all understand the truth, but we still feel sorry for it." Tanchun said in a low voice.

Miaoyu said: "Since you understand this truth, why not relax your mind, and forget the joy of being together if you just indulge in it."

Tanchun drank a cup of tea and said, "I said you are a person who knows how to speak out some truths, so I came to you to solve my troubles. If we can all see it as you do, then there is nothing to worry about."

But Daiyu said: "Don't think that Miaoyu claims to be an outsider. In fact, only the Bodhisattva knows whether the threshold has been crossed or not."

After hearing this, Miaoyu's face didn't change color, she just said softly: "The Bodhisattva doesn't care whether I have crossed this threshold, but whether some people can cross it is a difficult problem. "

Daiyu and Miaoyu commented so sharply on each other, but they never turned their faces because of it, Tanchun thought it was a strange thing.

Daiyu listened, didn't say much, just picked up a cup of tea and sipped it.

Miaoyu continued: "Recently, I read this sentence, 'All conditioned dharmas are like dreams and bubbles, like dew and electricity, and should be viewed as such', but I have a new understanding."

Xiuyan asked, "How did you realize it?"

"It's not difficult to understand. We all understand that all the dharmas that arise from causes and conditions are like dreams and illusions, like bubbles like shadows, like dew like electricity, changing rapidly and impermanently. Therefore, we should look at the world with an ordinary mind. everything changes."

Daiyu, Tanchun and Xiuyan nodded and continued listening to Miaoyu.

"Now I think, even though the changes are impermanent, at least before the changes, we have truly experienced and comprehended these predestined dharmas. This is the most rare and should be seen."

Daiyu muttered and groped a few times, then kept nodding her head in agreement.

Tanchun said happily: "It's amazing, Miaoyu, your realm is really much higher than ours."

Miaoyu had a proud expression on her face, and continued: "The people and things in the garden have changed a lot recently, and I also realized it suddenly."

Daiyu looked at Miaoyu and thought to herself: Now Miaoyu has changed from being born to being in the world. For those who study Buddhism and Taoism, it is always easy to be out of the world but difficult to enter into the world. With this understanding, you can become a teacher.

Originally, her mood today turned from joy to sorrow, but now she was soothed a lot by Miaoyu's words, and her heart calmed down.

The four-person chess stopped playing, and they said something else. After fasting, before leaving, Daiyu and Tanchun went to fold plum blossoms.

Originally, Xiuyan didn't intend to fold it, but Miaoyu persuaded instead: "Since we're here together, let's fold a branch of spring and bring it back to make it more beautiful."

The three of them picked a plum each, and the maid took them home.
