[Red Mansions] Dependents

A few days later, Yaxin took the two daughters-in-law and Xichun to Puji Temple outside the city. The children stayed at home and were looked after by the baby. The two children are accompanied by a nanny, so Yaxin is very relieved.

But Qing is not very relieved, the baby is very stubborn, afraid that she will forget to take care of her younger brother because she is playing with herself, and let those mothers think that the master is not at home so they will be negligent.

"Sister-in-law, what are you worried about? Although the doll is fun, you can still distinguish the seriousness of it. I am relieved to leave Leng'er in the care of the doll. What is there to worry about, sister-in-law?" Qingwan looked at Keqing's sad face I knew what she was thinking.

But Qing has one advantage but also a disadvantage, which makes people hate and hate her, that is, she is more considerate of others, although it makes people feel at ease, but at the same time makes people feel too careless.

Ke Qing also knew about this problem of hers, but seeing Qing Wan chuckled lightly, thinking about it, she was a doll with a sense of propriety in doing things, so she felt relieved: "I'm all thinking of you, you don't appreciate it, that's all. I don't bother with that anymore."

Seeing Keqing feeding the dog with good intentions, Qing Wan felt it was funny: "Wan'er is wrong, Wan'er shouldn't dislike sister-in-law's kindness, now go to the Buddha to repent, let the Buddha punish me to give birth to a daughter .” Qing Wan laughed as she said that.

Seeing Qing Wan's appearance, Ke Qing hugged her and said, "You think beautifully. Who doesn't know that you just hope to have a daughter. Is this considered a punishment?"

"Then how about I comfort my sister-in-law and beg for the Buddha's reward? Good sister-in-law, let's go quickly, mother can go far away." Qing Wan seemed to ask.

Ke Qing said, "I'll let you off this time."

After entering the Daxiong Palace, Keqing and Qingwan watched Yaxin kneel down to pray for blessings, so they didn't dare to play at this time, but Keqing and Qingwan also knelt quietly beside Yaxin.

Yaxin was originally a Buddhist, and after this soul transmigration, she believed in the theory of ghosts and gods even more. Since she came to the temple, she asked for a lottery to the abbot: "Master, please untangle this lottery for me."

"What do you want, madam?"

"Ask for a house."

"Amitabha, my wife has profound blessings that extend to her descendants. As long as no harm is done to the world, everyone around the lady will benefit. Even if there is a catastrophe, it will surely turn the danger into good fortune." The abbot does not look at some Taoism Signed, just looked at Yaxin and saw something.

Yaxin clasped her hands together and said, "Thank you so much, master." Keqing and Qingwan at the side also bowed.

The abbot walked away, but Qing and Qingwan realized that Xichun was not there, and asked, "Mother, where did little aunt go?"

"Just after entering the temple, I heard from the little monk that the bodhi tree in the back mountain had borne fruit. Xi'er said that she was going to pick some back and strung them up for the dolls to wear." Yaxin thought in her heart that in many stories, girls would When meeting outsiders at this time, either they are hooligans and are rescued by a hero, or they meet a young man and sparks are sparked. Yaxin still hopes that Xichun will meet the one specially arranged for her in Houshan today. human.

Yaxin got her wish. Xichun and Mrs. Geng's nephew Xiao Muren met. Unfortunately, it was not a pleasant meeting. When I saw a girl picking here, I immediately understood that this was my mother's usual trick, but this time the girl was a bit young, unlike the ones I had seen before who were all around my age, and this The woman is also bolder than the previous ones, and she waited here for her regardless of her reserve. It was really "very different" as her mother said. Xiao Muren sneered in his heart after watching it for a long time. This woman can really pretend, so let's stay and see when she will "discover" itself.

Xichun felt that the picking was almost done, so she said to her maid: "Chuqing, it's almost done, if you don't leave, my sister-in-law will be in a hurry, let's go back."

"Okay, girl, let the slaves come and get these." Chu Qing snatched the small cloth bag from Xichun's hand as she said that, and walked in the direction of the monastery, which happened to be opposite to Xiao Muren's direction. Xiao Muren thought it was over like this ?

Seeing that Xichun and the others were going far away, Xiao Muren stepped forward and said, "Miss is leaving just like that?"

Xichun turned her head in astonishment when she heard a thick male voice, and saw Xiao Muren looking at her with contempt. Is this a mockery? "Who is the son? Why did you call me?"

"Isn't Miss who I am the most clear? Otherwise, why would Miss wait for me here?" Xiao Muren looked at Xichun with contempt, and only found it funny when Xichun's rhetorical question.

Xichun looked at Xiao Muren like this, thinking, is this looking down on me?What's wrong with me?Xichun didn't understand, but felt that Xiao Muren was out of his mind, and cursed secretly, "Crazy." He whispered to Chu Qing, "Chu Qing, let's go, I'm afraid we'll meet a lunatic." Then he turned and left quickly.

Xiao Muren heard that Xichun said that he was a lunatic, and felt that this was Xichun's method. He wanted to catch him hard, and he was quite scheming. Looking at the direction where Xichun left, he said: "Interesting."

Seeing that Xichun came back with a displeased face, Yaxin asked, "What's the matter?"

Xichun replied indifferently: "It's nothing, I just met a lunatic." After hearing this, Yaxin thought, lunatic?This sister in-law must have been fooled by me, she introduced a lunatic, no, you have to ask carefully when you go back.

Yaxin comforted Xichun first and said: "It's okay, it's okay, let's go back to the mansion, it's been a while since I've been out, and my sister-in-law wants to see what good things you, Bodhisattva, can make."

Xichun also smiled, took out the bodhi seeds she had picked and talked to Yaxin, and the matter was over like that.

Back at Ningguo Mansion, before saying anything, the baby started to complain: "Grandma, mother, you don't know, there are bad guys here today."

"What bad guy?" The most curious thing was Qing Wan, who was called a bad guy by the baby, she must have done something unforgivable.

The baby replied quite naturally: "It's the oldest one in the mansion, she is so bad, she actually found someone to come over and take her younger brother away first, I am my sister, you told me to take good care of her when you went out, how could it be possible They succeeded, so I asked my grandma to give me that sister to help me teach them." What the baby said was an excitement, which caused her to say what she shouldn't have said.

"When did grandma give you a big sister?" Ke Qing asked, grabbing key words after listening.

Seeing Keqing's face turned serious, Wawa knew that something was wrong, and thought to himself: It's over, why did you say that you slipped your tongue, and quickly explained to Keqing: "No, grandma didn't give Baby anything, no sister, nothing. , None, mother, you heard it wrong, um, you must have heard it wrong."

"Don't dare to quibble, answer honestly." Keqing didn't want the queen mother to send someone to protect them, but she was afraid that the baby would do things regardless of whether she knew that someone was protecting her in secret, and would do it regardless of danger or danger. If Wei is not careful, he will hurt himself.

Seeing the baby looking at her for help, Qing Wan silently tugged on Ya Xin's clothes, but Ke Qing listened to Ya Xin the most, so she still wanted Ya Xin to act at this time: "Okay, don't be cruel to the child, Queen Mother A good intention, isn't it because you are afraid that you won't accept it, so you won't let the baby tell you? Don't be wronged, your mother is also worried that you will hurt yourself if you have someone to protect you. You should admit your mistake to your mother, and then Just explain it."

The baby obediently said to Keqing: "Mother, I'm sorry, the baby shouldn't hide it from you, but grandma said that she can't tell you, the baby is afraid that if you find out and refuse grandma, grandma will be sad, so the baby will keep it from you." ,sorry."

But after hearing this, Qing didn't blame the baby. The source of this was that if she really said something wrong, it was her own fault, so she told the baby a few words. As for the sister who protects the baby, since she has been here for so long, then continue. stay.

What Yaxin was worried about now was about Xichun, so she quickly asked Mrs. Geng to ask about the situation. After hearing this, Mrs. Geng assured her that her nephew was definitely a good one. Talk to Yaxin.

Yaxin knew that Madam Geng would not lie to her after listening to Madam Geng's assurance, it must be because of some misunderstanding, it is better to find out the situation.

Mrs. Geng went to her mother's house to find Xiao Muren to ask what was going on, but Xiao Muren said that Xichun was not good and he didn't want it.Mrs. Geng knew Xichun better than Xiao Muren, so she asked about the specific situation. Upon hearing this, Mrs. Geng really didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said to Xiao Muren: "Muren, aunt doesn't even know how to say that you are smart. I'm still stupid, you've also seen her girl at a young age, and she's Zishi's sister-in-law? There are many holy family members in the family. Which family in the capital doesn't want to marry her, and they are still greedy for a big guy like you? If it weren't for your aunt I really think she is good, thinking that you might like it, so I mentioned you to my sister-in-law. My sister is not satisfied with your age. She originally wanted to find a literati. If she didn't give me face, she would give it to you. This chance for a general? This time she also mentioned that she would go to the temple to offer incense, so you can see if you like it from a distance. If you don’t like it, then ask someone to find someone who is satisfied. Who would have thought that you would meet, girl Did you know that you said something about it out of nowhere, and now people think you are crazy." Mrs. Geng scolded while pulling Xiao Muren.

Xiao Muren asked: "What my aunt said is true." It turned out that she really didn't know, and suddenly remembered the scene when she saw Xichun that day. After the negative emotions in her heart were gone, Xiao Muren still felt that Xichun was lovely, even It is agile.

"Of course." Mrs. Geng cast a sideways glance at Xiao Muren, thinking: I knew this kid would be tempted, it's really good.

Mrs. Xiao also saw that Xiao Muren was tempted, otherwise he would not have asked more questions even if he knew that he had misunderstood. Thinking that the child's marriage was finally settled, she couldn't sit still: "Then there is still a chance? Can my sister help me?" Let's reconcile with Master Zi Shi."

"Siblings, don't worry, there is a chance, otherwise I wouldn't be sitting here now, but what do you mean, Mu Ren? If it's unintentional, aunt won't have to run back and forth so hard." Mrs. Geng asked.

Xiao Muren bowed to Mrs. Geng and said, "Please trouble Auntie."

"That's good, my aunt has been a matchmaker once in her life, so it doesn't matter if she bothers you or something, as long as you treat other girls well in the future, otherwise, let alone me, I won't forgive you. Mrs. Geng warned Xiao Muren, but Xiao Muren didn't feel any sense of crisis, but looked forward to it even more, but few people can be seen by his aunt, just like his mother, his aunt didn't like it very much, just because It is a family, and my mother has shallow eyelids, but she is very educated. As long as it is said by the elders, she will definitely obey, and has no personality. Xiao Muren thought: If this person is not my mother, I will not like it. .

Xiao Muren solemnly replied to Madam Geng: "It's only natural."

"That's good." Mrs. Geng went straight to Ningguo Mansion after leaving Xiao's house, and explained the situation to Yaxin. Yaxin was happy when she heard it. Is this a mistake?Yaxin said: "Three days later, I don't have to enter the palace that day, my sister can bring Mrs. Xiao and Young Master Xiao to visit."

When Mrs. Geng heard it, there was something going on.There is no reason to refuse, and he happily agreed, and said: "My sister will definitely not be disappointed when she sees our Mu Ren."

Three days are not long or short, and it will be here soon. Yaxin met Xiao's mother and son, and after talking to Mrs. Xiao, she basically understood that this is a person without temper. It's okay to be close to Miaoyu like that, but it won't happen that the mother-in-law bullies the daughter-in-law.And Xiao Muren, on the other hand, has a cold face, unlike Jingyu and Mo Yang who always smile when seeing her, but this is harmless, what Yaxin thinks in her heart is whether this is a cold-hearted black-bellied type, Yaxin herself is big* this kind of person type, so I have a good impression of Xiao Muren.

In the end, the two families reached an agreement and made a marriage contract first. Xichun is still young and will not get married until Jiji. Mrs. Xiao has been waiting aimlessly for many years. Today, she finally saw the shadow. After a moment of confusion, she readily agreed. up.
