Edge of the Red Chamber

Lin Hai was startled, came to his senses, quickly responded, and asked, "Did the old lady say what happened?" While talking, he hurriedly wiped away his tears, got up and straightened his clothes.

"I don't know." Lin Hai didn't mean to ask him, but when he went out, he waved his hand directly, signaling that the servant didn't need to follow, and he went out of the study by himself.

In the old lady's yard, there was still only a gatekeeper woman and Rosary Wooden Fish. Rosary served tea and pushed behind the old lady.

"The old lady came to me, what orders do you have?"

The old lady is holding a string of sandalwood beads, the size of a thumb, with the "Heart Sutra" engraved in her hand.Hearing this, the old lady paused for a moment when she was holding the bead string, then moved it again, and said: "It's nothing, I know the purpose of your daughter-in-law picking me up that day, and now I'm married, I'll see , My daughter-in-law is also a good child, and my daughter-in-law will take care of this house in the future, so you should feel relieved when your daughter-in-law is underground. I think, after a while, my daughter-in-law will smooth out the house, and I will go back. "

Lin Hai only acted as an old lady when she saw that there was a gap in her family's rush to marry Lin Jue within a hundred days for Jia Min. She was anxious and a little guilty, and said quickly: "Min'er, she..." He is also a talkative person on weekdays, But when he encountered such a thing, he was at a loss for words for a moment.

Seeing him like this, the old lady couldn't help laughing, waved her hands, and said, "In this regard, you are not as good as your wife. She can see what kind of person I am, but you can't see clearly." At this point, the smile gradually faded away, and after a while, Fang went on to say: "She is a transparent person, and also a kind person. According to my opinion, during the period when she was ill, she married for Yu'er. Maybe it’s a rush, that’s... There are people in the family who are hosting the Zhongfu, so why invite someone like me into the house. Do you know how she returned to me?"

After all, without waiting for Lin Hai to answer, she went on to say: "She said that when other people marry their daughters to her sons, they know what she is. How can she wrong Miss Xian? Moreover, she knows that her fate is not long. I can't tell the girl Xian to marry into the family, and she will be charged with the crime of overcoming her mother-in-law." The old lady sighed again, and the bead string in her hand turned faster and faster, "She knows the knot in my heart, and she just said this in front of me. How can I not do it? No, she won’t be able to get out of bed just after I moved in..." At this point, the old lady stopped suddenly and squeezed one of the beads fiercely.

Although the old lady didn't show it on her face, Lin Hai could still hear it from her words. The old lady still took Jia Min's death on herself, and couldn't help persuading: "Old lady, although your daughter-in-law is a good one After all, she was young and only entered the door, so the old lady had to remind her often. Just now, Lian'er...is the eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion. He came to see me and said that the old lady in Jingli wanted to take Dai'er away. Jingli."

The old lady understood as soon as she heard it, and moved the beads in her hand in an orderly manner, "A person like Min'er never thought that their old lady would look the same." After speaking, the old lady hesitated .

After a while, he said again: "Forget it, you go."

Knowing that the old lady agreed to stay, Lin Hai put his heart into his stomach.

How did Jia Min invite the old lady to his home that day, and how did Lin Hai not know?However, the old lady didn't know that Jia Min also said something that day: The old lady didn't have any descendants, and at such an old age, she might be gone that day, and she didn't even have anyone to give it to her.Our family is small, and we also lack an elder. The old lady has a strange temper and is not easy to get along with, but she is actually the most soft-hearted.Since she came to our house, she only treated her as the old lady, and how many children often went over to talk with her. Maybe her old man changed her temper, I don't know.

Lu Shi said that it was just a cover to watch Qingniao make almond tea, and the two walked around the tea room before going directly to the house.

Grandma Su came out to greet her, and said with a smile: "Grandma and the girl are not afraid of the heat. On a hot day, why don't you run by the stove? If you want to eat, you can order the blue bird to cook it. Otherwise, what do you want us slaves to do?" ?Grandma and the girl really have to learn."

"Sister Hongxiao and Sister Xiangluo are here, where are we allowed to get close? I didn't go in, I just took a look at it from a distance, and I didn't even know where it was and where it was hot?" Daiyu smiled. After refuting, he said to Lu Shi: "The sun will rise just now, let's go to the east room and have dinner at my side at noon."

Lu Shi smiled and said yes, the two entered the door hand in hand, and turned directly to the east room, the windows in the room were open, and there was some wind again today, just entering the room, I felt my whole body was cold.Guessing it wasn't the wind outside, Lu looked around and saw no ice basin, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "My sister's room is cool, so I don't even need to use the ice basin."

Daiyu then pointed to the big blue and white tripod-legged open fish tank and said, "Why is it useless? Where is it not?"

This kind of fish tank has only been around for eleven or twelve years. Speaking of it, it came out of the shop where Jia Min married as a dowry, but there was no such style of fish tank before.But seeing Daiyu put ice in it, Lu couldn't help laughing, got up and walked over, and saw another crystal glass jar inside, with a few plump peaches in it, couldn't help sighing: "What a coincidence." thinking." After that, he came back again, took Daiyu's hand and said, "Although it's hot now, don't be greedy for coolness. Let these peaches be put in the ice, just have a taste."

Daiyu then leaned on Lu's body, and said softly: "Good sister-in-law, you can also tell me, I will use one today, okay?"

Mrs. Lu shook her head and said, "No, you can just have a taste." After finishing speaking, he told the red silk that brought the tea, and said, "You girls can't be left alone in the future, just splash it with well water, that's all. How do you pour it into the ice?"

Grandma Su didn't know it at first, but when she saw Mrs. Lu mentioning it, she went over to look and saw a few peaches in the crystal jar inside the ice. She hurriedly asked the little maid who was pulling the curtain in front of the door, and said, "Where is this?" Who let it go?"

The little maid was evasive and didn't dare to say it, but Hongxiao saw it and said, "Mom don't need to ask her, it's definitely a fragrant orange. She was talking about the heat yesterday. It's not yet the Dragon Boat Festival, and there is no ice bowl in the kitchen. I got up this morning and said that I want to pick peaches, so it was because of the ice in this jar." After speaking, he asked Daiyu, "We don't know, how did the girl know?"

Only then did Mrs. Lu know that Su Momo and Hongxiao didn't even know about it, so she thought it was a discussion between Daiyu and Xiangcheng, and she couldn't be too strict, so she said angrily, "You are too naughty." Daiyu Just laugh and don't speak.

The little maid had already called Xiangcheng in, and when Lu Shi asked, Xiangcheng hurriedly said: "It is true that I released it secretly, the girl doesn't know."

Only then did Lu know that Daiyu had already guessed that the oranges were put there and teased the people in the room, and she loved and hated this sister-in-law, so she tapped her on the forehead, gritted her teeth and scolded: "Naughty. "
