You're Crossing the Red Mansions

You Xiaoxiao saw Xichun crying undisguisedly, and felt that the child was pitiful, so she hurried over and covered her in her arms and wept together. The sister-in-law and sister-in-law cried for a long time, and then gradually stopped.Xichun's eyes are swollen like a little Taoer, You Xiaoxiao wiped her tears while whispering: "My sister has been wronged for a few days, and I will ask my ancestors to pick you up when I see a suitable opportunity." Xichun heard After returning home, she showed an overjoyed expression, and then her expression became cold again: "I won't go back." You Xiaoxiao took her hand and sat down, and asked softly: "Did my sister blame us?" Xichun nodded, and hurriedly Shaking her head, You Xiaoxiao knew that she had been greatly wronged these years, and it was true that she couldn't turn around for a while. She didn't expect to be able to pick up Xichun and leave in one go. Caressing the little girl's head, she smiled and said, "Yes, this is the place where you grew up, and you should be nostalgic... Let Ruhua take care of this baggage, and pack the bank notes..." You Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered Thinking of something, he secretly scolded himself for being confused, and gave her a bank note for no reason, how could a little girl's family spend it, and then spread the word, and the people in the West Mansion knew about it, maybe there were some strange things behind her back.I fumbled in my pocket anxiously, luckily I had a few pieces of silver in it, I kept it for sending someone, now I hurriedly took it out and said to Xichun: "But I didn't think carefully, I'll bring you some ingots next time, It’s also good to spend.”

Xichun had lived for so many years, and it was the first time someone cared about her so affectionately, and children were easy to coax, seeing You Xiaoxiao treat her like this, her heart was premature, and she was too embarrassed to show her face to her sister-in-law.You Xiaoxiao turned around and touched the quilt again, to see if it was warm, and then to see if the soft red gauze on the window should be changed.Look again, the room is fairly clean after scrubbing around, but there are not a few conspicuous things.Obviously, I saw two azure Ru kiln vases at Tanchun just now, with wintersweet in them, and an authentic Mi Fu's work on the outside.Ordinarily, even if Xichun doesn't give some antiques here, there should be a few decent calligraphy and paintings. Sister Feng has done a little too much.You Xiaoxiao plans to go back to the house to discuss with the uncle, and send two good paintings next time.After thinking about it, he ordered a few more words, and since he didn't want to stay for a long time, he said he would come to see her some other day.

Before she could take a step, Xichun called her to stop: "Sister-in-law." After being busy for a long time, she finally heard Xichun call sister-in-law, and You Xiaoxiao felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart.So he hurriedly turned around and said with a smile, "Sister, what do you want to tell your brother?" Jia Zhen is Xichun's real brother, but the two of them have never met each other. Keep in touch with each other for a long time.Apart from looking at him from afar during the sacrificial ceremony, Xichun almost forgot what his elder brother looked like.After hearing You Xiaoxiao's words, she just remembered that she is a younger sister. Now that her sister-in-law has sent so many things, she should say hello to her brother because of emotion and reason, but that's not what she wanted to say.

"I heard some things in this mansion..." the little girl muttered, embarrassed to continue.The first thought in You Xiaoxiao's mind was the incident between Jia Zhen and Qin Keqing, and seeing Xichun's face flushed, she felt angry.I didn't expect that there were no rules in the West Mansion, even a little girl in a deep boudoir could listen to gossip, no wonder later the whole mansion spread random rumors, made Lin Daiyu such a sensitive temper, and managed the family so laxly, Sister Feng fell down. I'm ashamed to go to Dongfu to show off my might. "Sister, you are a daughter of a thousand gold, a person of gold and jade, and the people below gossiping, even if they hear it, they should pretend not to hear it. Besides, they are dark-hearted, and they don't work hard all day long. They don't say a word except to slander the master. Good words, just treat them as farts.” You Xiaoxiao was still a little puzzled after the lesson, and asked, “Where did you hear it from?” If the old woman beside Xichun dared to talk like that, even at the risk of offending Jia’s mother, she would have to be kicked out out.

It was the first time Xichun was taught harshly since she was a child, but she didn't feel disgusted in her heart. Although she was raised to be withdrawn, she was also very intelligent. All said and done.It turned out that she followed her sisters to go to the room to greet the old lady that day. While walking on the road, she met two old women who were talking about the affairs of the East Mansion, and they were talking about how the well-behaved Brother Qiang had moved out... The words below were unbearable , Xichun is hard to say anymore.After hearing this, You Xiaoxiao sighed deeply, it was another blind hole in Ningguo Mansion, how long would she have to mend it.It is said in the original book that Jia Qiang is the decent great-great-grandson of the Ningguo Mansion, so it must be the direct bloodline of the old ancestor Jia Yan. Because he is not the eldest son, he cannot inherit the title, and because his parents died when he was young, he was adopted and followed Jia. Jane lives.When he was seventeen or eighteen years old, he was handsome and handsome, and the villain under him specially spread some slanderous words. Jia Zhen also wanted to avoid suspicion, so she asked him to move out of the sub-fu.

Seeing the little girl's slightly anxious face, You Xiaoxiao realized just now: "Is this why you don't want to go back to your house?" Xichun nodded unconsciously.You Xiaoxiao couldn't help touching the little girl's face: "My good sister, it's all our fault. When your nephew and daughter-in-law were in charge of the house, they were so soft-tempered that even though the subordinates had no law, they dared to say anything nonsense, and they all passed on it." It came into your ears, damn it." After that, he explained to Xichun again, Brother Qiang is getting old, after all, he is not a member of our long house, after all, he can't support him for a lifetime, he has to go out and set up a family by himself, So your elder brother bought him a small courtyard at the back of the mansion, and gave him a silver bill to go out, but at least he is an ancestor, and he can't help him on weekdays.When the family is a bad water tank, the people below are lazy all day long, and if the master doesn't like it, they will spread rumors and make trouble everywhere, and go back to investigate carefully, and if the culprit is caught, they must be kicked out.

After hearing this, Xichun realized that she had wronged her elder brother, so she became more affectionate to You Xiaoxiao, and then took the initiative to bring up the words of going home: "Sister-in-law, don't go to the old lady to tell, just say pick me up when you come one day If you go shopping, the old lady will not stop you." This is a good idea, you don't have to come back after you go shopping.You Xiaoxiao felt more at ease when she saw that she had such a heart.But I don't know that Xichun is going to go back to investigate in advance. This brother and sister-in-law don't come to see her once in eight hundred lifetimes, but they are treated so kindly when they finally come. The situation, find out the bottom line, and then make plans.

Coming out of Xichun House, You Xiaoxiao felt sweaty all over, counting from the days since time travel, she was not as tired as this time.Next, I still have to go to Li Wan's place. Although Grandma Zhu is not favored and not in charge of the family, she still has a son, so she can be regarded as a little transparent.One must not be too snobbish, besides, Li Wan had no major faults, he was just a poor man.

Li Wan took the Duan inkstone and rice paper for Jia Lan, stared at his son writing big characters, saw You Xiaoxiao coming, and hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "Why is it so late, I'm anxious to wait." Jia Lan saw You Xiaoxiao, very anxious Call out politely, Aunt Zhen.You Xiaoxiao saw that he was young, but his attitude towards learning was serious and serious. On the one hand, she felt that the child was obedient and sensible, but on the other hand, she was afraid that Li Wan would push the child too hard, and would ruin her body.

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Zhen, let's go play in that room." Li Wan smiled and looked at his son with a gentle and loving expression.You Xiaoxiao praised Lan Geer for being sensible, and sat down with Li Wan. "You also know that there is nothing good here. The tea and noodles that were just delivered a few days ago are fresh. Let me give you a bowl." Then she ordered Su Yue to make desserts.You Xiaoxiao knew that she was a widow who was unemployed and had a difficult life, and she didn't want her to be too troublesome, but she was afraid that she would make the other party think too much, so she just sat down and chatted with her.

Li Wan's life in the West Mansion is by no means more comfortable than Xichun's. Her mother-in-law dislikes her, her mother-in-law ignores her, and everyone else ignores her. His son Jia Lan is obviously the eldest grandson of the second wife, but his usual treatment is not as good as Baoyu's toe.Sister Feng, the head of the family, has a mouth full of big sisters and sisters-in-law. She has never looked down on her in her heart, but the old lady can't look down on her. She thinks it's too disgraceful, so she is sent to take care of the girls on weekdays, but it's just a name. Forget it, she doesn't have the guts to meddle in other people's business, she can't hide from right and wrong.For this reason, she usually does not have any deep friendship with people in the West Mansion, and she can only speak a few words with Youshi to relax.You's one is a stepwife, and the other has no children. The life in Dongfu is also very difficult, and they cherish each other.

"The matter of Brother Rong's daughter-in-law has tortured you quite a while ago. It's time to take a good rest. We should take good care of ourselves at this age." Li Wan talked with him while drinking tea, and laughed again: "You took care of yourself." But it’s okay, I don’t know who to show it to after I take care of it.” As he spoke, he felt sad again.You Xiaoxiao said: "Why shouldn't you take care of it? When Lan'er is successful in the future, I have earned you a royal order to marry a daughter-in-law and come back. She came in to see her mother-in-law, but her face is wrinkled and pretty?" Li Wan chuckled: "Your mouth , why is it the same as Feng girl." You Xiaoxiao only smiled when she heard this, and ate her tea without saying a word.Li Wan smiled and remembered something again, and hurriedly lowered his voice: "Hey, let me tell you, there was a fight again a while ago." You Xiaoxiao just said: "Ah?" Hell, Second Uncle Lian accompanied Miss Lin back to Yangzhou. A letter came a while ago, saying that she was going to pick up my aunt at home, but Miss Feng was not happy, so she made a fuss with the old lady..." You Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "It's not that Aunt Lin Is the master seriously ill? Second Uncle Lian still has this leisure time - but the old lady is willing to say something to Feng girl." Li Wan smiled and said: "You guessed right, the old lady sent it herself The man wrote a letter to scold him, saying that he gave Ping'er the roommate, guarding a pair of beauties, and thinking about this and that every day, not like a big man. If she brought someone back, she would not recognize it. of."

You Xiaoxiao sighed: "He's wild, it's better to let him go." Listening to her words, Li Wan knew her situation in the mansion, and also sighed: "I only feel sorry for Ping'er, what a girl." , was tortured by the two of them." You Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "Everyone has their own fate, and you can't force it." The mood of each other was a little low, and they each sat for a while, chatting about some trivial matters, You Xiaoxiao saw that it was getting late , That is to say goodbye and go back to the house.

Yindie was waiting on the carriage and was about to fall asleep. When she saw her coming up, she said with a smile: "Good grandma, but listen to me? Grandma Zhu won't let go after seeing her for a while." You Xiaoxiao nodded her nose and said with a smile "What a bold hoof, dare to make fun of the master." The two sat down, and Yindie Fang said: "The hairpin was given to Ping'er and Xiren, and they all said thank you grandma for the reward. Because Zijuan followed Lin The girl has gone back to the south, and she will save her servant girl and give it to her when she comes back." You Xiaoxiao nodded after hearing this, and then took out two strings of coral bracelets: "I'm really tired today, and I didn't go to Pear Fragrance Garden either. Let's go, Miss Yun is not here with the old lady, so I will leave these two strings to you."
