The Story of My Aunt in the Red Chamber

Chapter 7 Wang Zimeng Visits the Lin Mansion

Knowing that they were going to visit Lin's mansion, Xue Pan and Baochai were very excited. They had been fascinated by Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin for a long time, and they were even more curious about Sister Lin, who combined the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

So the two of them started to prepare early in the morning. Fortunately, Wang Zimeng was preparing the gifts for the visit, and the two of them only needed to settle themselves.Although you are observing filial piety, you have already passed the hot filial piety period, so there are not so many rules in dressing, and when you visit someone's house, you can't dress too plainly, which is taboo.

The prince was wearing a dark blue floral satin shirt with a stand-up collar, a gray blue floral horse skirt, and a velvet cloak with a dark blue peony pattern trimmed in water green was held in the hands of a maidservant.There was no time to sit in the hall for a cup of tea, so Xue Pan and Baochai came hand in hand.

Xue Pan is wearing a round-neck gown with blue patterned satin trim and pale pink flower pattern brocade, a satin belt with colorful pavilion figures and landscape patterns on a gold background, light blue trousers, a jade pendant with green tassels hanging around his waist, and red multicolored embroidery with black trim purse, and the maid behind her was holding a satin fur cloak with pea green pattern.

Xue Baochai is wearing a sea blue collar with a moon white base and a sapphire blue bamboo leaf printed satin placket, a white stand-up collar jacket, a moon white dark floral pleated skirt, and a light beige dark floral satin leopard-trimmed suede cloak. hands.

Wang Zimeng held the hands of a pair of sons and daughters and looked at them non-stop, saying that the golden boy and jade girl came down to earth.Laughing so much that Xue Pan felt uncomfortable and urged to leave.

The prince dimly looked at the big clock in the hall, and felt that the time was almost up, so he got up and walked out of the hall.Speaking of which, Wang Zimeng has been in the Red Mansion for about a year, but she has never learned to count the time by looking at the sun. Fortunately, this world already has a clock, which solved her predicament.

Putting on his cloak, Wang Zimeng took Baochai and got into the carriage, while Xue Pan rode aside, and the group headed towards Lin's mansion.

Passing by the gate of the Xunyan Yushi Yamen, I walked westward for a while, and there were three gates. After the carriage entered the gate, the sedan chair was changed, and when it landed in front of a hanging flower gate, a woman came up and opened the sedan chair curtain, and helped the prince to help them get off the sedan chair. , Wang Zimeng helped his mother-in-law's hand, and entered the vertical flower door. On both sides were Chaoshou verandahs, and in the middle was a hallway. There was a large marble screen with red sandalwood shelves.Turning around the screen, there are three small halls, and behind the halls is the main courtyard behind.There are five upper rooms on the front, all with carved beams and painted buildings. On both sides, there are corridors and rooms on the side of the mountain, with parrots, thrushes and other birds hanging in various colors.

At this time, Jia Min took Daiyu and waited in front of the door.Seeing Wang Zimeng coming, she went up to meet him, took Wang Zimeng's hand and said, "Sister Zimeng, you miss me to death." Before the words fell, tears fell down.

When Wang Zimeng was crying like this, he also thought of his parents in modern times, and he never saw him again. He shouted "Sister Min" in his mouth, and he had to cry with him once.

After a while, everyone calmed down, and Jia Min took Prince Meng into the room.Then Wang Zimeng asked Xue Pan and Baochai to come up to meet him. Jia Min took the two of them by the hand and said yes, and asked Daiyu to come over to meet Wang Zimeng.The prince vaguely saw that Lin Daiyu was indeed as written in the book, with two eyebrows that seemed to be frowning but not frowning, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be happy but not happy.He was even more joyful in his heart, and immediately wanted to return the bracelet in his hand to Daiyu.Daiyu couldn't push it for a while, so she could only look up at Jia Min, and when she saw Jia Min nodding, she took it away.

The two chatted lively and saw that the children were not interested in listening, so they sent Xue Pan to see Lin Ruhai, and asked Daiyu and Baochai to play in the yard, so they could talk to Wang Zimeng.

"Sister Zimeng, let's say goodbye that day, and I don't want to see such a scene when we see each other again."

"That's right, when I was in the boudoir that day, all I could think about was my children's thoughts. Today, you and my children will grow up."

"Yeah, your Pan'er and Baochai look good. My Daiyu is still young. I only pity my youngest son. He is only three years old. He just went away like this. He is going to break my heart." .” As he spoke, he began to cry.

Wang Zimeng burst into tears, patted Jia Min's hand and said, "My good sister, you are still young, and my uncle is here, so there will be opportunities in the future. It's not like me, I will never have the chance to see my master again."

The two hugged each other and cried for a while, Fang stopped sobbing, seeing each other's red eyes, both burst into tears and laughed.So people fetched water, tidied up, and then sat down again.

Wang Zimeng took Jia Min's hand and talked about the old things in the capital. As he talked, he talked about Baoyu, who was born with jade in Rongguo Mansion.

"Speaking of which, the origin of that precious jade is also a great fortune, it's a pity..."

"What's the matter, sister Zimeng? Last time the old lady wrote to say that Baoyu's homework is excellent." Jia Min asked curiously. In fact, the old lady also said in the letter last time that she wanted to ration Daiyu to Baoyu. Add a kiss.She was worried that Daiyu was still young, and that Baoyu's own mother, the second wife of the Rongguo Mansion, did not get along with her, so she pushed her away.But I still quite agree with it in my heart, after all, if you are married, you know the basics. With the protection of the old lady, the second wife would not dare to do anything.Why is there something wrong with sister Zimeng's tone at this time!

"Then I told you, don't be angry!" Wang Zimeng had to get vaccinated.

"Okay, don't be angry. I also want to thank sister Zimeng, maybe I was fooled by some people!"

"I heard from a servant who went to Beijing this year that Baoyu had a famous saying, 'Daughters are made of water, and men are made of mud. When I see a daughter, I feel refreshed, but when I see a man, I feel stinky. People'. Don’t you think it’s funny? I’m sure you’ll be a pervert in the future!” The prince said with a smile, thinking to himself, no wonder he was able to do such a thing with that attacker when he was ten years old.It's just that there is no sister Nabao to match him this time, and I don't know which family's daughter will be unlucky to marry him in the future.

"Sister Zimeng, it should be more than that, otherwise you wouldn't have told me today." Jia Min raised her eyebrows and smiled, thankful that she didn't agree with her mother's proposal.

"Well, those are just trivial matters. Baoyu once ridiculed those who are keen on fame and fame as people who swindle for fame, national thieves and ghosts, and ridiculed the so-called manly fame of "literary remonstrance, military death war" advocated by Taoism is nonsense. He even I think those Confucian writings like Zhu Neo-Confucianism are fabricated by the predecessors for no reason. As for stereotyped writing, it is the level of later generations who bait their names and earn money, and use their fame and fame for a living."

Wang Zimeng took Jia Min's hand and said worriedly, "Baoyu is still young, and others can say that he has a child's temper. What should he do when he grows up? What he said offended scholars all over the world, even his own Didn't the ancestors also scold him in!"

Jia Min was stunned for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, she couldn't help taking a breath. "Here, why doesn't mother talk about Baoyu, he is going to cut off Qingyun Road of Jia's family."

"Okay, sister Min, Baoyu is still young, the old lady just needs to take care of herself from now on. Come today, I have one more thing to ask of you."

"Then, after I discuss it with the master, I will write a letter to the old lady. Sister can say anything, between us, do you need to be polite!"

"It's like this. My son-in-law is now guided by my aunt, so I don't worry. It's just that Baochai is getting older. Do I want to ask her to be educated by two palaces? Although my status is a bit of a hindrance, if Pan'er She is promising, and has been educated by someone in the palace, so she will be able to raise her level a bit when proposing marriage in the future."

"Sister is really kind-hearted. Since that's the case, I'll invite two for my family's Daiyu. It's just that the old lady needs to come forward to find it in Beijing. There is nothing good in Yangzhou."

"That's exactly what I said. After all, Jingli is more well-informed. I don't want the kind of people who need to be used by the superiors, or retreated from important places. We can't grab them. In fact, we can stay in the palace until the age is released. Which came out is not human sperm!" Wang Zimeng was afraid that Jia Min would be embarrassed, so he set the conditions very low from the beginning.

Sure enough, when Wang Zimeng finished speaking, Jia Min responded directly.

The two were talking enthusiastically, and a little maid came in from below to ask for instructions that the lunch was ready and where it should be placed.

Jia Min asked someone to put them in the side hall, led the prince over, and asked the servant girl to bring Daiyu and Baochai, and then asked someone to bring the storyteller.At the same time, he did not forget to order someone to bring a table to the front, so that Lin Ruhai and Xue Pan could chat while eating.

Wang Zimeng and the others had a lively meal and chatted and laughed again. Seeing that the time was almost up, they took Baochai and Xue Pan to say goodbye.

When she left, Miss Daiyu was almost in tears, she was very reluctant to part with her sister Baochai whom she just met today.It was Wang Zimeng who promised to bring Baochai to play next time, or take Daiyu to play there, which made Daiyu laugh out of tears.

The author has something to say: Well, it's late today.There is no way, A Luo is not very good at detail description.Today, these are the information I have checked for a long time.Work hard in the future! ! !
