The Dream of the Red Chamber of Huanzhu is not a dream

Mother Jia was sleeping drowsily under the quilt. The quilt was warm, but the chill seemed to emanate from her bones and could not be dispelled.

"Mandarin duck...Mandarin duck..." Even if he shouted at the top of his voice, the voice was still not very loud.

Jia's mother's vitality is considered tenacious, all because she can't let go of Jia Baoyu and always wants to do her last bit of strength to arrange a safe future life for him.

Yuanyang took care of Jia Mu's afternoon nap, and then went out to wash the sheets. Jia Mu's self-control ability is extremely poor now, and the quilt sheets are often stained, but the Jia family can't afford too many servants now, and many things can only be done by themselves. She, a big servant girl, came to do it. I think she was raised as a vice lady in the past. Where did she do such rough work?It didn't take long for the hands to become rough.

There was another quarrel in the front yard, and Yuanyang looked up numbly, then ignored it.

In terms of kindness, she only owes Jia Mu, and she just wants to take good care of Jia Mu. When Jia Mu is gone, she will leave this place. The money she has saved over the years is enough for her to sell herself. And now the Jia family doesn't have that kind of power to hold her down.

Yuanyang hung up the washed sheets and returned to the house. Mother Jia had already fallen asleep again. Yuanyang tucked her in the quilt, completely unaware that she had woken up.

Mother Jia took Jia Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun back to Jinling. She thought that the emaciated camel was bigger than a horse, and that she had accumulated power for many years. She was not afraid that the Jia family in Jinling's hometown would make things difficult for them.

It's a pity that Jia's mother missed out on the change of people's minds. The Rongning and Ning families have not returned to Jinling for many years. They were still a little bit afraid, but now that the Jia family is clearly in decline, what are they afraid of?

Especially when Jia Mu was old and her health was extremely poor, she lived only because she was worried about Jia Baoyu and dragged her breath, which was somewhat intimidating, but it was not enough.

Jia Baoyu is also a loser, seeing people crying and shouting that life is hard, if Jia's mother wants to take back the property they depend on for survival, they will not be able to live, they will hang at the door of Jia's house, etc. If they hadn’t, they hurriedly took the money and sent them away, and said that the house and land at home were not bad, and there was no need to force people to death, which made Jiamu so angry that she couldn’t breathe. After that, she became more and more worried about this naive grandson.

If she had known that Jia's family would end up in the current land, she would not have cultivated Jia Baoyu's disposition to ignore everything, but now it is useless to regret it.

After Yingchun got married, Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Xing returned to Jinling with Jia Lian's concubine son. Now, the Jia family's house became more and more lively.

Jia Baoyu's property left by Jia's mother to Jia Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun had already been dispersed by Jia Baoyu. The sweetness of Baoyu's loose hands, if the property falls into Jia Amnesty's pocket, how can they coax it out?So they all helped Jia Baoyu openly and secretly, sold their favors by the way, and coaxed the gold and silver nudes in Jia Baoyu's hands.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Baoyu quarreled and quarreled in this way, and they couldn't live a peaceful life. Several times, Jia Mu was so angry that she was so angry that her health became worse and worse.

After Jia Zhen's family sent Xichun to marry and returned to Jinling, the two families who were once so close and wished they could wear a pair of trousers almost came to blows over the right to live in the ancestral house.

Jia Zhen is the patriarch, but Jia She is his elder, and Jia Mu is on top, so the two families are evenly matched.

It was at this time that Jia Baoyu disappeared, leaving behind a disillusioned letter and the two-month-old fetus in Shi Xiangyun's womb.

When Jia's mother heard the news, her self-supporting breath broke down, and she disappeared that night.

Shi Xiangyun was also hit hard, crying every day, coupled with the exhaustion of Jia's mother's funeral, the child could not be kept.

Jia Mu's funeral was mainly arranged by Li Wan and Jia Lan.When Li Wan arrived in Jinling, he got in touch with the Li family of his natal family. He did not interfere with Jia Baoyu and Jia She and others' affairs, and lived his own life behind closed doors. Jia Lan was sent to the Li family and followed the Li family. child reading book.

After Jia's mother's funeral, Jia Zhen and Jia She reached a settlement and separated the ancestral house. Shi Xiangyun, who was left behind by Jia Baoyu, and Li Wan, an orphan and widow, had no backing and were driven out. He lived in a small courtyard on the street, which was originally the residence of Jia's servants.

When Li Wan left Jia's house, he was picked up by the Li family. Li Wan was used to saving money, and he still had some money in his hands. If you have great prospects, your life will naturally get better.

But Shi Xiangyun's husband ran away, the child was gone, and the dowry brought by Jia Baoyu in the early years was scattered before Jia Baoyu. I really don't know how to live today.

But Jia Ai, the concubine son of Xiren, was not liked by Shi Xiangyun in the early years, and was driven to a remote small courtyard with Xiren Sheyue to live, but now they are driven out together, Shi Xiangyun doesn't want to see these people even more, and simply sends them away They drove them out together and left them to fend for themselves.

Xiren and Sheyue could only rent a house nearby, and supported Jia Ai by doing laundry and sewing for others. Shi Xiangyun drove them out, but they didn't return the contract of sale, so they didn't dare to go far.

Both Xiren and Sheyue were born as maidservants, and they didn't know the importance of reading. They only thought that Jia Baoyu was so good at reading and reading, and he couldn't support themselves. they.So they sent Jia Ai to learn crafts, but Jia Ai didn't know if he had been exposed to his father's style when he was a child, and Xiren and Musk Moon both loved him very much, and they didn't want him to suffer and suffer, and he didn't learn anything for long. He couldn't learn it, but just like his father, the boy couldn't walk when he saw a beautiful girl, and he was often scolded for "gouging out his eyeballs".

Back then, Jia Baoyu was the concubine of the duke's mansion, and some maids were willing to be looked at by him like that, but now Jia Ai is just a slut who has accomplished nothing, how can anyone think highly of him?When he was young, others could forgive him a little bit, but as he grew up day by day, he stared at people and refused to let him go, and he still said "sister and sister" unclearly, even if he had no frivolous heart and behavior, Not less beaten by others.

Although the shackles on women were gradually broken as Emperor Zhenhua was in power for a long time, Jia Ai's behavior can be regarded as the frivolous behavior of bad guys. A lecherous blank.

For the same behavior, the results of Jia Baoyu and Jia Ai's father and son are completely different, but the fact is that the two have different identities and backgrounds.

However, Jia Ai's skin is very good to follow Jia Baoyu. Later, he married the daughter of a butcher's family. He could hold his head up, and at any rate he had spent his life in peace.

As far as Jia She and Jia Zhen, who once occupied the Jia family's ancestral house, Jia Ai did not cause any serious troubles, although he had no future.

As for Jia She and Jia Zhen, they are used to running amok. With the decline of the power of the two families in Beijing, they stopped a lot, but when they returned to their own land, they began to shake their arms again. Those who were brought up by Jia She subconsciously felt that they were the emperor of the earth.

The result of not being able to understand the situation is to be domineering and cause trouble. In the end, he violated the law and was imprisoned. Even the Jia family's ancestral house was sold for compensation.

And Jia Huan, who ran away from home and disappeared, later sent back news that he was involved in smuggling by sea. That organization was later taken over by the imperial court, and Jia Huan was shot dead during the arrest.

When Tanchun got the news, he could only send someone to collect his body. He thought it was a descendant of Jia's family, and he should be sent to the ancestral grave. He had the coffin carried back to Jinling, because he knew his uncle's temperament. Anyway, he pooled hundreds of taels of silver for Jia She, and then Jia She and Jia Zhen let go of their mouths and allowed Jia Huan's bones to enter the ancestral grave.

These news made Xiren and Sheyue feel a little lucky, but after Jia Ai became married and gave birth to a child, they did not live the good life they expected, because the daughter-in-law did not treat them as serious mother-in-laws at all, but asked them to do a lot Not to mention musk moon, even Xiren is treated as a rough envoy.

But Jia Ai is cowardly and dare not say good things for them. In addition, in his growth experience, Xiren and Sheyue have always been doing work, serving him like a master, and it is no different now .

Xiren and Sheyue spent their hard lives, and Lin Lao felt very at a loss. They obviously wanted to be half masters in high spirits, but they were still servants serving others all their lives, even if they were older. There were no more slaves in the Qing Dynasty, and they were still unable to be their own masters, and they were trapped for a lifetime.

When Xiren and Sheyue were gray-haired and could no longer do any work, the daughter-in-law was finally willing to spend a lot of money to raise them in a dilapidated house.

On this day, it was rare for the two of them to bask in the sun leisurely in front of the door for a while, looking back on their ridiculous life, and wondering if one of them hadn't hanged on Jia Baoyu's crooked neck tree back then, would they be able to be like those pleases now? The status of a slave is like a person who works to support himself, living a frank and comfortable life.

But he said that Jia Baoyu left a letter regardless and left home, thinking he had seen through the world, and planned to find a temple to become a monk.

Afraid that his family would find him, he really ran to a rather large temple to become a monk in a rather far away place. In addition, he didn't inquire about the news of his family at all, so he didn't know the news of Jia Mu's death. Not to mention going home for a funeral.

Jia Baoyu is very eloquent, and he does have some insights. He became a monk very smoothly. With a bald head, he felt that he had said goodbye to his past self, and those messy things would not bother him anymore. Once it is on the head, it will be a new life in the future.

But he has never been a person who can do a good job on his own ability, especially when he first entered the temple, he started as a young monk, and he had to work, and he also had to do rough work.

Fetching water, sweeping the floor, growing vegetables, and doing laundry, you have to do everything by yourself, but there is no servant who prepares the food for you and serves it to eat, or prepares the clothes for you to wear.

Jia Baoyu couldn't bear it in a few days, especially when growing vegetables and pouring feces on them, which made him feel sick even after eating food.

Obviously, the monks and nuns in the temples he has seen all have young monks and nuns to take care of the daily life, so how come he has to do these disgusting things when it is his turn?

But he forgot to think about it. The monks and nuns he had contacted before were all abbots and presiding teachers, and he was just a newcomer who had just become a monk. How could he be treated like this?If you can eat and drink as soon as you become a monk, and there are people to take care of your daily life, wouldn't all the rogues on the street squeeze into the temple to become monks?

Another one, Jia Baoyu is used to fine living, food and clothing are all the best, but now wearing rough tea and light food and coarse cloth monk clothes, it is awkward to wake up and sleep.

In addition, sometimes they go out for alms, and some poor and middle-class people are not so particular, and because they are monks, sometimes a little girl or daughter-in-law will come to give them alms. I will commit a crime and say something that should not be spit out of the monk's mouth.

These little girls and daughters-in-law are not the maids of his family, and they are happy to hear him say frivolous words. His behavior is no different from frivolity, so they are often beaten out by the girls' families, and he is said to be a flower monk. , and even ruined the reputation of their temple.

After several visits, the monastery refused to keep Jia Baoyu. At best, they called him "the fate of the world is not over", but at worst, he was "unsatisfied with lust", and they wanted to hand him over to return to vulgarity.

Jia Baoyu really couldn't stay any longer, and felt that this life was simply unlucky, so the two parties broke up.

Jia Baoyu did not return to vulgarity, he just felt that this temple was not a place for him to rest, and he could not realize his ideal life at all, so he still wore the monk's robe and continued to look for a place that could accommodate his spiritual peace. .

However, when passing through a small county in Hunan, Jia Baoyu met an acquaintance, Fulun and his wife, who also came from the capital.

It turned out that Fulun was dispatched by Qianlong to become a county magistrate. After Emperor Zhenhua came to power, he didn't even have to be a county magistrate.

The Fu family relied on the concubine Ling to get up. They had no foundation, and the capital didn't dare to go back, so they had to go back to Fulun's hometown to live. The two of them lost their son and died in retirement. Fortunately, they still have some savings. In such a small place, it's not bad. live on.

It's just that Mrs. Furren felt that she was once a noble lady, and now she really has nothing to talk to with a group of mountain women in this remote village.

That's why when Jia Baoyu was begging for alms, he chatted a few words and found out that he was a monk with something to say. Jia Baoyu.

The Fu family and the Jia family had grudges because of Concubine Ling and Jia Yuanchun, but Jia Baoyu didn't understand this at all, and only thought that being able to meet acquaintances in this remote place could be called fate.

Mrs. Fulun saw that he was so deceitful, evil thoughts suddenly arose in her heart, she coaxed him to stay at home, and then sold Jia Baoyu to the owner of the black coal mine.

The begging monk came and disappeared, and the neighbors didn't think there was anything wrong, so Jia Baoyu fell into a situation that was beyond heaven.

Later, when the black coal mine was reported and the government sent troops to seize and rescue the imprisoned miners, Jia Baoyu was already in a broken body, and he reported the Fulun couple with his last breath, and the couple were sentenced to prison. How long does it take to die? After all, he is pampered and taken care of. With such a labor intensity, people who are several times stronger than him can't bear it, let alone him?

I just don’t know if he regretted it at the moment when he closed his eyes, maybe he shouldn’t run away from home, even if he is upset, he still has a home after all; maybe he should be a monk in that temple with peace of mind, maybe a few Ten years later, he can also become an old abbot with a little novice to take care of him; maybe he should go home when he is frustrated, and maybe he can hide in the arms of his grandmother who loves him the most...

There are too many possibilities in life, but unfortunately for Jia Baoyu, all these are meaningless.
