[Red Mansions] Dependents

On the day of the death, Jingyu actually asked for leave to accompany Miaoyu to the grave. This is the ancestral grave of the Gao family, where the ancestors of the Gao family are buried. Yaxin only came here once, because she suffered a tragic death for the Gao family. She came here when the person was buried. For many years, she just hired a nearby farmer to watch over her, and sent someone to burn some paper money on the anniversary of her death. After all, Yaxin is a married daughter, and no one will gossip if she doesn't come.

This anniversary of death was no exception, Yaxin only sent Mother Xu and Yan'er beside her to worship, and happened to run into Jingyu and Miaoyu who came to worship for the first time.

"Miss, Uncle." Mother Xu and Yan'er shouted.

Miaoyu saw that it was Mother Xu and the others, and replied, "Why are you here?"

Mother Xu said: "Every year on the death day, the wife will let the old slave come to worship the old man and the others. Yesterday, the wife ordered that the young lady and uncle will come back today, and let the slaves wait here to guide the way to pick up the uncle."

"Oh, sorry to trouble Auntie again, Mammy lead the way, you just wait again, no need to follow." Miaoyu first said to Nanny Xu, and then turned her head to explain to the servant who followed.

Mother Xu listened, and led the way ahead, Jingyu helped Miaoyu follow carefully, Yan'er pulled out the weeds that just grew on the road.

Mother Xu said as she led the way, "Madam hired a family from a nearby village to help look after and take care of the cemetery. They would come to clean the cemetery every few days and pull out the weeds that had grown." Miaoyu heard After looking around, it was indeed quite clean, and I felt quite comforted in my heart, but at the same time felt a little guilty that my aunt had done so much for the family, but I had never done anything, and I really felt unfilial.

Suddenly Miaoyu saw a cemetery that looked like it had been destroyed, and asked, "Mother, what's going on?"

Jingyu was also curious when she saw it. Mammy Xu glanced at it and said, "This belongs to the young lady. Since the young lady and the wife met each other, the wife immediately sent someone to knock down the tombstone and tear down the tomb."

"Oh? What was buried there before?" Miaoyu asked suspiciously.

"The ones who suffered in those years were all clothes. At that time, my wife got the news that she was seriously ill. It had been more than half a year since she recovered. The local Yizhuang saw that the emperor, who is now the Supreme Emperor, issued an order to chase it down, but no one came to take it back. dead bodies, I thought there was no one in the Gao family, and I couldn’t find them after a hasty burial, so my wife ordered someone to set up a clothes tomb.” Xu Momo recalled, with sadness in her words, it is hard to know where the bones of her master and sister are now. I don't know, even if I know, now I can't tell who is who, I only know that the world is impermanent.

Miaoyu suddenly had mixed feelings in her heart, and she didn't know how to describe it. No wonder, no wonder no one knew that she was alive.The blood-red scene was still vivid in my mind, but now it has been covered by loess, and no one can recognize it.

"Miss, don't mourn in the past. My wife is right. People can't just live in the past. How can they live by guarding the grave. Now that the old man and the others see that the lady is married, the uncle will be happy if he has more care for the lady." Seeing that her words brought up Miaoyu's sadness, Mother Xu quickly comforted her.

Seeing Miaoyu's sad face, Jingyu also said: "Mammy said yes, Ran'er, let's pay homage to grandpa, father and mother first, and tell us that we are doing well, so that their spirits in heaven can feel at ease."

Miaoyu nodded slightly after hearing this, took a look at 'her own grave', and then continued to follow Madam Xu.

After the worship, Miaoyu had a dream that night. In the dream, there was a couple looking at her with a smile and waving goodbye to her. Even though they didn’t say anything, Miaoyu knew that they were her parents. As my aunt said, I and my mother really look alike, very much alike.It's just that my mother has more warmth than me, as if she can warm everyone around her, unlike me who is more indifferent, and is indifferent to people she doesn't know.Miaoyu remembered the "laugh" that Yaxin once said to herself.It turns out that laughter can really affect people. Seeing her mother smile like this, Miaoyu can feel warm and understand that they are really at ease and don't have to worry about herself anymore.

Waking up in the morning, Miaoyu raised her eyes and saw Jingyu lying on the pillow, with a smile on her lips, she said to herself, "Father, Ran'er is very happy now."

Jingyu opened his eyes and saw Miaoyu's sweet smile, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Miaoyu's smile widened, and she said, "It's nothing, I just think it's really good."

Jingyu didn't know what happened, but she clearly felt Miaoyu's change, she was no longer polite, and she really felt like a married couple.

Since then, Jingyu and Miaoyu's husband and wife life has become more harmonious and beautiful. During the day, Miaoyu followed Mrs. Geng to read Buddhism and manage the housework. , but without losing the warmth.

"Ran'er, I have nothing to do with you after class tomorrow. Is there any place you want to go?" Jingyu and Miaoyu seldom have free time after their wedding. Now that they have free time, they want to take Miaoyu to relax relax.

Miaoyu is becoming more and more self-aware now, and the initial estrangement between her and Jingyu is gone, and she has become the closest and most talkative person. Miaoyu also began to show off her temper when Jingyu was not good. There is also a lot more fun between husband and wife.

"You decide, but you have to talk to your mother." Miaoyu laughed.

Jing Yu said: "Of course I can't forget this, but where are we going? I wanted to go out with Mo Yang and the others, but..." Before Jing Yu finished speaking, he saw a girl running in. This girl is Jingyu's younger sister. This girl came to find Miaoyu. She likes Miaoyu's sister-in-law very much. Miaoyu is also good to her, so they often get tired of being together when there is nothing to do.

"Brother, are you going to find Brother Mo Yang? Take me with you, Siyan hasn't seen Brother Mo Yang for a long time." Geng Siyan trotted forward and happily pulled Jingyu's sleeve to act like a spoiled child.

Jingyu pulled away the hand that was pulling his sleeve, and said: "Listen to what your brother said first, you originally wanted to go out with Mo Yang and the others, but your brother Mo Yang and brother Yixuan will be busy tomorrow, how could you Your brother is so idle." Jingyu has always known who his sister likes, but he doesn't know how Mo Yang feels, so delaying is not an option, Siyan is getting older, it's time to talk about marriage, and today is also Some people came to ask, it seems that if they have time, they still want to talk to Mo Yang about this matter, if they want to, they are happy to have an opinion, if not, Si Yan can't delay.

"Ah~" Siyan was disappointed, but quickly recovered: "Where are you and sister-in-law going to play, take me with you, I'm getting moldy in the house, I haven't gone out for a long time." Siyan is pitiful Xixi looked at Jingyu and said.

Jingyu said: "I plan to take your sister-in-law to play outside the city. The scenery in the eastern suburbs is good, and I heard that the chrysanthemums are blooming there recently, so I just take your sister-in-law to enjoy the chrysanthemums. But you can't go, we husband and wife What fun do you join in getting along with?"

"Brother~, you took someone else there, I promise not to disturb you, when you get there, you can watch it, I'll just play by myself, okay, brother." Siyan hurriedly came up and grabbed Jingyu's arm and acted like a baby , Miaoyu looked at it funny.

"No." Jingyu said firmly.

How could Siyan give up so easily? Seeing that my brother's side didn't work, I went to my sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, you can take me with you, Yan'er likes sister-in-law the most."

Seeing Siyan's appearance, Miaoyu couldn't refuse as cruelly as Jingyu, and said to Jingyu: "Why don't you let Yan'er go with you, so that the road will be more lively." Siyan's temperament followed Mrs. Geng's enthusiasm Very well, Miaoyu likes it very much, otherwise, with her quiet temperament, how could she say such words against her will.

"Okay. I know to find your sister-in-law, hum." Miaoyu said, Jingyu was naturally obedient, and gave Siyan a hard look. Siyan didn't pay attention to him, she hugged Miaoyu and said happily: "I knew my sister-in-law was the best, and she loved Yan'er more than brother stinky." Then she made a provocative face at Jingyu.

Seeing that the siblings are so naive, Miaoyu smiled helplessly, not because she was annoying, but because she really liked this way of getting along.

But it is a pity that this relaxation did not come to fruition. It was agreed the day before, and Siyan woke up early the next day to urge her brother and sister-in-law. I felt dizzy for a while, but fortunately Jingyu was supporting me.

"What's wrong?" Jingyu asked.

Miaoyu felt a little uncomfortable but didn't want to spoil the interest of the siblings, so she reluctantly said: "It's okay, it's okay, let's go."

"You said you were fine, but your complexion is not as good as you said, let's call a doctor to take a look first." Jingyu reprimanded her in concern, blaming her for being uncomfortable for not speaking out.

Seeing Miaoyu's pale face, Siyan worried and said: "Yes, sister-in-law, let's find a doctor to take a look at it first. It's not that I don't have time for this outing, so I can go next time."

"It's really all right, you've been bored for a long time, let's go quickly." Miaoyu said stubbornly.

Siyan was very stubborn: "No, I don't want to go, I won't go today, An'er, let someone find a doctor." Then she and Jingyu dragged Miaoyu back to the room and let her lie on the bed lie down.When Mrs. Geng heard that Miaoyu was not feeling well, she quickly put down her affairs and came to ask.

"How is it? Has the doctor read it?" Mrs. Geng asked the first sentence when she came in.

Siyan replied: "The doctor hasn't come yet, so I don't know what to do."

Seeing that Mrs. Geng was disturbed, Miaoyu got up on the bed and said, "Mother, my wife is fine. I was a little dizzy just now. Now I lie down for a while and it's much better. The doctor doesn't need to call."

"How can this work? A minor illness can lead to a serious illness if you don't look at it. Besides, everyone can feel at ease after seeing it, right? Just lie down obediently and wait for the doctor to come and say you're all right before you go to the ground." Mrs. Geng said.

The fact that she fell in love with Miaoyu that day was partly proposed by Geng Jingyu, and partly due to the Gao family's reasons. Otherwise, why would she choose to have something to do with someone like the Jia family.Miaoyu's father and Geng Jingyu's father are acquaintances. They actually met each other when they were young. At that time, Miaoyu was more lively and often played with Jingyu. At that time, Miaoyu's father once joked about the two children. After growing up, the two families became close friends of Qin and Jin, but after the Gao family had an accident, Geng's father and Mrs. Geng didn't mention it. After all, it was just a joke at that time.Later, when she heard that the Gao family's daughter was not dead, Mrs. Geng thought about it, and wondered if it was God's will, thinking that Jingyu had also reached the marriageable age, and she said that so many daughters refused, Could it be because of this that they came up with the idea of ​​proposing marriage, but even when they were proposed, they were still rejected, but the two still came together.At first, Madam Geng only felt pity for Miaoyu's daughter who had suffered like this. Miaoyu has been married for a few months, and she has seen every move in her eyes. So nervous about this daughter-in-law.It's just that these are all things that happened after Yaxin got married, so Yaxin didn't know there was such a story in it.

"Madam, the doctor has invited you, and you are waiting outside." An'er came in and came back.

Mrs. Geng and Siyan often hid behind the screen, Miaoyu's bed curtain was lowered, only one hand was left on the pulse table outside, and then the doctor was invited in, and the doctor took the pulse. Although Jingyu was worried, it was not easy to disturb, It wasn't until the doctor handed him over to congratulate Miaoyu that he was happy, did Jingyu let go of his worries, and was so excited that he wanted to go forward and hug Miaoyu.

"Doctor, my daughter-in-law is usually a vegetarian, but what should I pay attention to?" Madam Geng asked.

The doctor said: "Don't worry, ma'am, although the young lady is a little weak, it will not affect the fetus, but it still needs to be supplemented. It's better to have meat, chicken soup or something later."

"Thank you so much, doctor. An'er will take the doctor down and get a double consultation fee to the accountant." Mrs. Geng confessed.

"Thank you, madam." Then the doctor followed An'er to receive the reward.

Mrs. Geng and Siyan came out, the maid opened the curtain, Miaoyu smiled happily, and looked at Jingyu again, Siyan teased: "Mother, brother is stupid."

Mrs. Geng didn't answer, went to the bed and sat down, and said to Miaoyu: "Ran'er has remembered the doctor's words, and now she can't be a vegetarian every day for the sake of the child, mother asked the servants to make the meat food lighter , you want to eat some." Mrs. Geng pulled Miaoyu, and when she saw her happy smile, she immediately remembered how she looked when she first married into the Geng family, when she heard the doctor announce that she was pregnant. Happier than when I got the second grade imperial order.

Miaoyu still has no reason to agree at this time, she can do anything for the sake of the child, not to mention it's just sex: "Well, my wife knows."

Mrs. Geng said: "That's sensible, Yan'er, let's go first, otherwise your brother won't know how long he will be stupid." Before leaving, Mrs. Geng did not forget to tease the couple, and then she took Siyan and left She still has to inform the Geng family, and the Ningguo Mansion also needs to send news. I am afraid that Yaxin will come to visit tomorrow.
