[Red Chamber] Jia Lian has an ancestor system

The matter of Caixia came to an end, and Jia Lian went to pay his respects to the old lady the next day, and talked about these things in general.

Jia's mother said: "Marriage is a major matter, and you have to find a reliable person. There is a way to live with more or less money. Drinking, gambling, and beating people must not be taken."

Jia Lian replied: "That's exactly the reason. I told the old lady about Sister Xiangyun last time, and I want to find someone to go to Weifu to talk about it when I have free time."

Jia Mu nodded and said, "Go ahead, Mrs. Wei is also a kind person, you might as well let her come and see you."

Jia Lian took the order, went out to find Feng Ziying, and asked Feng Ziying to talk about it.

Feng Ziying has always been a warm-hearted person, and her family is family friends with Jia's and Wei's, so she patted her chest without saying a word.

Because Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan are both descendants of aristocratic families and they are friends with each other, Feng Ziying went to Weifu and hit it off immediately.Mrs. Wei's family was also worrying about her son's reluctance to marry. Now that she had such guarantees, she was naturally elated and said that she would visit Jia's mansion in two days.

On the morning of April 24th, Baoqin came to Jia's mansion surrounded by maids and mothers.

The mother said: "Because the girl's brother is going away, a girl is uncomfortable staying at home, and it is not convenient to go to her uncle's house, so I want to send the old lady to live here for a few days."

Baoqin has always been liked by the old lady and others. Jia Mu put her arms around Baoqin and said, "I said you haven't come here for a long time. If your brother hadn't traveled far away, you wouldn't have come to see me, have you?"

Bao Qin coquettishly said: "The old lady misunderstood me. I don't want to come all the time, but I'm afraid of disturbing the old lady's peace."

Jiamu said with a smile: "Look, this mouth is so good at talking."

When Daiyu, Xiangyun, Tanchun and others heard that Baoqin was coming, they gathered together.The room was unusually lively.

While joking and talking, a woman came in and said, "Mrs. Wei is here to visit."

The girls were about to evade, but Mother Jia hurriedly said, "No need to evade, they are all from my own family."

As soon as Mrs. Wei entered the room, Daiyu, Baoqin, Xiangyun, Tanchun, Xichun, and Xiuyan were sitting in the hall, six girls who looked like flowers all stood up and saluted her. Mrs. Jia was dazzled.

I often heard that all the girls in Jia's family are as beautiful as flowers and jade, but I have been to the mansion twice, but I have never had a chance to see them.When I saw it today, it was really different.Mrs. Wei's family loves her with all her heart and eyes, and she can't get enough of anyone.

She bowed to Jia Mu and said, "I haven't visited the old lady for quite a while, so I have to come here today. I don't want to see so many peonies and peonies, it's hard to love."

Jia Mu knew it well, so she hurriedly introduced her.

When Daiyu was introduced, Mrs. Wei shouted in her heart, she really is a sick and weak beauty, and Xizi is sick!

She met Tanchun and Xichun many years ago, and saw that they have grown up a lot, and each has its own style.

When it comes to Xiuyan, Mrs. Wei also likes this girl with shining eyes very much, she seems to be a person with ideas.

Afterwards, Mother Jia took a fan and said to Xiangyun, "This is what my grandniece called Xiangyun, and she just returned to Beijing from Jinling."

Xiangyun saw Baoqin coming today, everyone was talking and laughing together, she was very excited as she likes to be lively, her face was festive at the moment, her eyes were crooked when she smiled, and she spoke very frankly, which made Mrs. Wei nod her head, secretly in her heart There is a sense of proportion.

When Jia's mother saw that Mrs. Wei's family liked it very much, she also had a bottom line.

Looking around, Mrs. Wei saw that the old lady had not been introduced yet, so she took the initiative to ask: "Which young lady is this? You look very happy."

Jia Mu laughed and said, "I almost forgot about her. She is Uncle Xue's daughter. Her name is Baoqin. She has already mentioned Mei Hanlin's family. That Xiuyan just now is betrothed to her brother."

Xing Xiuyan and Xue Baoqin were embarrassed by the words.

The wife of the Wei family said, "Mei Hanlin's family? I heard that they will be transferred back to Beijing."

Jia's mother said: "That's right. Because I have been working outside, I haven't gotten married. After returning to Beijing this year, I should get married."

Although Shi Xiangyun is a carefree girl, she is not without winks. The marriage she talked about last time is no longer possible. This time, seeing Mrs. Wei's family looked at her in the wrong way, I guess she came to meet her...

Sure enough, Mrs. Wei asked her some questions, such as have you read a book?Can you do needlework?Was it hard on the way back to Beijing?After chatting for a few words, Madam took one of her gold bracelets and gave it to her.

The rest of the girls also understood what this meant, and they all tacitly understood it.

Mrs. Wei's family didn't stay for a moment, and returned home soon.

When Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang saw this, they also knew that the marriage was settled, and they were just waiting for the day when they would formally come to propose marriage.

After lunch at the old lady's place, the girls went back to the garden together.

As soon as they entered the garden, the sisters began to fight and joke about Xiangyun.

But Xiangyun put away his usual laughter and became a little sad.

During the first blind date, she was ignorant and shy. After the marriage was settled, she even looked forward to the future.But after this incident, she realized that the world is impermanent, and she was a little worried. If it doesn't work this time, what should she do...

Daiyu suppressed her laughter and came forward to say a few words. In fact, she saw that everyone had made plans for lifelong affairs one after another, but she was always like a duckweed chasing water, and she couldn't help but feel sad.

Seeing that Xiangyun also became gloomy, she felt even more sad.

Seeing that everyone's emotions were a little off, Tanchun quickly changed the subject and said, "Today I have had lunch for too long, and it's too late for a nap now, why don't we go to the Ou Champs to draw pictures together."

Everyone clapped their hands and applauded, Xiuyan also proposed to invite Miaoyu over, so that we can have more fun together.

A few tables were connected under the corridor, and Zhu Fang spread paper and brush freely, writing poems and drawing.

A few days ago, Lian's second brother asked Xichun to draw the hairpin, which has been haunting Xichun's heart.Taking advantage of Baoqin's presence, she asked Xiang Baoqin: "Sister Qin, they say that you are well-informed and have traveled all over the world. I have something that you recognize?"

Baoqin said: "You might as well talk and listen."

Xichun said, "It's better to draw and see than to listen to you."

After finishing speaking, she picked up the brush and drew the red beads on the hairpin, but she changed the double-strand hairpin into a grass stem, adorned with twelve red fruits.

"What kind of weed and wild fruit is this? Do you recognize it?" Xichun asked.

Baoqin stared at it for a long time, then shook her head and said, "I really haven't seen it before."

Everyone leaned forward curiously to have a look, and shouted away.

Xiangyun said: "This thing looks quite beautiful, but I don't know if I can eat it?"

Tanchun laughed at her: "Young girl Yun just remembers to eat, and now she even has to count on the wild fruits on the painting." After hearing this, everyone laughed together.

Daiyu was concentrating on writing a poem, and halfway through writing, she saw everyone discussing the object on the painting, so she leaned over and took a look, but she felt that this object seemed familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.

"Crimson Pearl Grass—" the three words came out of Daiyu's mouth.

The girls all said in unison: "Wow, is this crimson bead grass?"

Xiangyun said: "What a beautiful name."

Miaoyu also said: "It's really beautiful, and once you say it, it fits the appearance and temperament of this grass."

Baoqin asked: "Sister Lin, do you recognize this grass?"

Seeing everyone's expectant gazes, Daiyu hurriedly said: "I didn't know it was called crimson bead grass, but I felt as if I had seen it somewhere before, and the name was so familiar, I blurted it out."

Xiangyun said: "You must have read it in some idle book, but you don't remember it."

Daiyu didn't speak, but felt that this thing was too familiar. Just listening to the three words "Crimson Pearl Grass" seemed to draw out the memory of her previous life.

Xichun said, "Forget it, I'll call it Crimson Pearl Grass."

Xiuyan asked Xichun, "Where did you see this thing?"

Xichun played tricks and said: "I won't tell you."

At this time Ping'er happened to come over and told the girls not to play and get sunstroke.Hearing the name of "Crimson Pearl Grass", Ping'er was stunned for a moment, and said that Miss Lin really knows how to name it.

After returning to the house, Ping'er said to Jia Lian: "It's strange to say that the hairpin you asked the fourth girl to draw last time was painted as a grass by her to ask the girls. Guess what the girls named it? What?"

"what is it call?"

"The rest of the girls couldn't tell, only Miss Lin said 'Crimson Pearl Grass'."

Jia Lian was surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Did Miss Lin really say that?"

Seeing Jia Lian's expression was a bit strange, Ping'er said in a daze, "Yes, what's the matter?"

But Jia Lian said: "You know, the fairy girl in the dream told me its name in the same way. The red beads on it are the fruits of crimson bead grass, and the name of the hairpin is crimson bead hairpin."

Jia Lian was a little excited, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, that's right, no one is worthy of this hairpin except Sister Lin, and the name "Crimson Pearl Grass" seemed to have a soul once Sister Lin said it.

Ping'er was still puzzled: "Is there such a coincidence in the world? But I heard from them that Miss Lin just said it casually, she has never seen this kind of grass."

"No, it's not a coincidence. It can be seen that the Fairy entrusted me with a dream and asked me to make this hairpin and give it to Sister Lin."

Ping'er stopped what he was doing, and thought to himself: The second master has been having various dreams recently, the ancestor entrusted the dream, and the fairy aunt also entrusted the dream, it's so strange...

Jia Lian went to the city to find a jewelry shop with contacts, and asked him to make a pearl hairpin according to the pattern.

A familiar old craftsman looked at the pattern and said seriously: "It's not difficult to make this pearl hairpin, but if the beads on it are dyed red with ordinary beads, you can tell that it's cheap at a glance. It's better..."

Before he finished speaking, Jia Lian vetoed: "Of course you can't want that kind of cheap beads."

"If the old man wants to come to the second master, he can only see agate beads. Judging from the color, it is the closest to the southern red agate. If the second master approves, he will use the southern red agate beads to make it."

This is exactly what Jia Lian wanted, and he also explained that the gold thread must be shiny and not dull.

The old craftsman said: "Second Master, don't worry, I will definitely make one exactly like the one on the picture."

The author has something to say:

Daiyu: I call myself~~~~~
