Evening Shaohua in the Red House

After hearing this, Li Wan felt a little more at ease in his heart, but this dream was too real, thinking of the scene in the dream just now, he was still a little uneasy.

Dan Ju saw that her forehead was covered with sweat, and her clothes were also soaked with sweat, so she hurriedly called for hot water, twisted the handkerchief to wipe her face, washed it again, and fetched clean clothes to change into.

Suyun went to pour a cup of hot tea again, and said: "As the saying goes, you think about it every day and dream at night. It must be that grandma misses you too much. Speaking of which, my brother left the door in February last year, so it's not unreasonable." It's been more than a year, no wonder grandma cares about it."

Li Wan lost his mind for a long time, and said in a daze, "I don't know how sooner or later Lan'er will arrive."

Dan Ju was taken aback when she heard this, and quickly laughed and said: "The letter was only sent at the beginning of last month, and it took only one month to fill it up. How can it be so fast?"

It turned out that in August the Lin family sent someone to present Mid-Autumn Festival gifts. Mother Jia thought that Jia Lan had gone to Jiangnan for more than a year, and next year's Lantern Festival would be the mother's visit, so she asked Jia Zheng to write a letter and bring back the gifts, telling Jia Lan to come back years ago.

Suyun laughed quickly when she heard the words: "The old lady and wife were still talking about it, the weather is cold and the river is frozen, it is inconvenient to sail, I am afraid that we will leave at the end of the month.

Don't worry, grandma, it's September now, and I think my brother will be back in a month or two. "

Li Wan drank half a cup of strong tea, calmed down a little, sighed and said: "You are right, I am confused."

In the original book, Jia Lan has been living in peace until Jia’s family ransacked the house. Thinking about it, there should be nothing wrong with it, but this child is not her own, but she brought it up with her own hands. It can be said that she is the closest person in this world. It is inevitable that concern will lead to chaos.

In the evening, when Li Wan went to pay his respects to Mrs. Wang, it happened that Sister Feng was also there, talking to Mrs. Wang. Seeing that she looked a bit sleepy, she asked, "Sister-in-law is not feeling well, why is her complexion a little bad?"

Mrs. Wang also looked over when she heard the words, and said: "But you are not feeling well? Why don't you call a doctor to take a look?"

Li Wan hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's just that I didn't pay attention when I took a nap today, I was a little cold, and I have a headache, I have already taken the pills."

After hearing this, Sister Feng said, "I still have better Western plasters for headaches. I'll send someone to deliver them to my sister-in-law in a while."

Mrs. Wang also instructed: "If it's cold today, add more clothes sooner or later. If you catch a cold, it's not a joke."

Li Wan agreed.

Mrs. Wang suddenly remembered something, and said to Sister Feng: "It's winter now, and everyone has to add some winter clothes, but I'll let you go down."

never? "

Sister Feng laughed and said, "Madam, don't worry, my ex-son has already sent someone to the sewing room to say that according to the usual quota, the work is not too much. I think I can get it at the beginning of next month."

Mrs. Wang nodded, and suddenly remembered Jia Lanlai, she couldn't help sighing, and said: "Speaking of which, Lan'er has been gone for almost two years, and I don't know what's going on now. It's October now, so it's logical It's almost time to move."

Li Wan couldn't help being touched again when he heard the words, he was stunned before replying: "According to the distance, I should be on the way now."

Thinking of her grandson whom she hadn't seen for almost two years, Mrs. Wang became joyful again, and said with a smile: "It's been almost two years in a blink of an eye, and I don't know how much taller I have grown now." After thinking about it, she hurriedly said to Sister Feng: "Lan'er also He's coming back soon, and his clothes should be ready."

Sister Feng hurriedly laughed and said: "I have already ordered to go down, and the materials are all ready, but Lan'er has grown a lot in stature after going there for two years, so I can't make up my mind about the needlework, and I am going to ask my sister-in-law what she means. Well, should I make a few body measurements first, or wait for Lan Er to come back and measure the size before doing it?"

Li Wan thought for a while, and said: "Why don't you send the materials over, and when Lan'er comes back, we can do it ourselves. The maids in my room are good at sewing, and they are just a few clothes, shoes and socks, and some things to wear. It doesn’t take much effort to make things, and it’s cheaper that way.”

Sister Feng laughed and said, "That's fine. I'll ask someone to bring the ingredients later."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang said to Li Wan: "It so happens that I still have two bolts of silk and satin here. You can take them too."

After finishing speaking, he ordered Jin Chuan'er: "Bring the two bolts of satin from Qian'er's palace."

Jin Chuan'er went as promised, and after a while, he really took two horses of material.

I saw a satin gown made of sapphire blue with multicolored clouds and bat patterns. The satin is woven with sapphire blue. Twisted gold threads and multi-colored velvet are woven into multicolored wishful clouds and Ganoderma lucidum orchids. The weaving is exquisite and the design The color is gorgeous and elegant.

The other piece is made of sky-blue satin Guangxiu Suihan Sanyou fabric, about two feet long and three feet wide. It is embroidered with sky-blue satin. There are more than ten kinds of colored wool threads embroidered into plum, orchid and bamboo patterns, such as , brown, dark green, emerald blue, dark blue, lotus root and shrimp green, which are colorful and gorgeous.

Sister Feng twirled the fabric, and seeing the fineness and thickness of the two bolts of satin, she couldn't help admiring: "The material is delicate, and the weaver is also exquisite. I don't think it's inferior to the one from Jiangnan."

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "This was given by my mother a few days ago. It is said that it is from Yuehai.

There are only four new designs in total, one with maroon-colored round flowers and Ruyi patterns, and one with stone blue five-bat holding birthday tribute to the old lady. I have kept these two horses, and this time The son just made clothes for Lan'er. "

After finishing speaking, he pointed to two pieces of satin and said to Li Wan: "This sapphire blue is fine and fine, it is good for making jackets and robes. This sky blue one is thicker, it is most suitable for making gowns and waistcoats."

Hearing this, Li Wan hurriedly said, "I still have a lot of satin at my place, I'll leave this to Brother Bao."

Mrs. Wang shook her head and said, "Baoyu has enough clothes. This is for Lan'er. You can keep it for him."

Hearing this, Li Wan had no choice but to thank her, and ordered the girl to accept it.

Before they knew it was time to light the lamps, they all said something again and then dispersed.

At night, Li Wan tossed and turned in bed, couldn't help but think of the dream he had during the day, and couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

It was cold and the night was long, and the bangs of clappers outside were heard from a distance, and a gust of wind came up outside the window, making the bamboo branches rustle.

Danju in the inner room was already fast asleep, and Li Wan didn't feel sleepy at this time, so he got up and cut the wax flowers. Hearing that there was no sound in the yard, he simply put on his clothes and got up, walked out of the inner room alone, and pushed open the fan. Sitting on the small carved chair under the window.

Looking up at the dark night, a crescent moon is exposed on the branches of tung leaves, and the stars are counted, the courtyard is silent, and the cigarettes in the stove are not extinguished. Although this body is still in the courtyard, it is already a different state.

Just listening to the chirping of insects by the side of the building, I am full of worries and mixed feelings.

Facing the night sky alone, Li Wan recalled that year when he came to this world, Jia Lan was still a baby, several years passed, and now he suddenly felt like a dream.

She didn't believe in ghosts and gods before, but now that she has experienced time travel and came to the Red Mansion Book, she has to admit that there are indeed supernatural things in this world.

The scene seen in the dream today is still in front of my eyes, and the soul of Qin's dream reminds me, is there really something wrong with Jia Lan?

Li Wan was just thinking blankly, as if in a blurred dream, he didn't realize that the dew was heavy in the middle of the night, and his clothes were already wet by the cold dew.

Dan Ju woke up to take a urinate, but seeing that the bed in the Nuan Pavilion next door was empty, and Li Wan was nowhere to be seen, she was startled, and her drowsiness disappeared, and hurriedly pushed Su Yun outside to wake up.

The two dared not say anything, and searched around, only to find Li Wan's figure under the outer window, and they breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them looked at each other, and they both thought of the dream that Li Wan had talked about during the day, and they understood a little bit.

Danju winked at Suyun and asked her to go back to the room, while she went back to the room and took a piece of azure sprinkler.

She walked to the window, helped Li Wan put it on, and said, "Grandma, go to bed quickly. It's late at night, just sit here. If you catch a cold, you will get sick."

Li Wan glanced at the western clock on the wall, it turned out that it was already three o'clock, and he was a little tired, so he had to get up and go to the room to rest, but he had something on his mind, and couldn't sleep well all night, until the cock crowed when he dimly closed his eyes.

In the days that followed, Li Wan was a little restless, but everything was very calm, and there was no news from Jiangnan, so he gradually relaxed.

Looking into October, the weather is getting colder, Mrs. Wang, Sister Feng and others are busy every day.

All the matters in the garden were ready. Jia Zheng checked it around, feeling relieved, and asked Jia's mother to go to the garden to think about it, decorate it properly, and there was no slight discrepancy before he dared to write the book.The original date was decreed that on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month next year, the day of Shangyuan, the noble concubine visits relatives. ①

In accordance with this decree, Jia's mansion never idles day and night.

On this day, Sister Feng brought a few boxes to Li Wan's courtyard, and just as she entered the threshold, she saw Li Wan wearing a homely bun, with only a red gold plum blossom hairpin inlaid with beads, a sapphire pendant around her ear, and wearing a White silk double-breasted jacket, blue satin embroidered magnolia ermine waistcoat, and a white Luo thread-trimmed skirt. Sitting in the warm pavilion, she was doing her needlework with her head bowed. She walked into the room with a smile and said, "What are you doing, sister-in-law? Here's something nice for you."

Hearing this, Li Wan raised his head and saw Sister Feng coming in. He couldn't help but smile all over his face, and said, "What kind of wind is blowing today? How come you, a busy person, are brought here."

Putting down her needlework and giving up her seat with a smile on her face, she ordered the girl to pour tea and put various delicate tea fruits on it.

Sitting down by the kang, Sister Feng pointed to the two red brocade boxes held by the girl and the two boxes on the ground and said with a smile: "This is the head of the mansion this winter, and a few sets of winter clothes. I have it today. I specifically asked to use more simple and elegant materials, you can see if it suits you."

Li Wan poured a cup of tea for her and said with a smile, "But I'm sorry to trouble you."

Dan Ju stepped forward to take the jewelry box, opened it and had a look with Li Wan.

What I saw was a butterfly hairpin inlaid with jewels in red gold, a hairpin inlaid with emerald green with silver dots inlaid with turquoise, a pair of bracelets in red gold inlaid with sapphires, two rings inlaid with white jade tourmalines, and a burning blue-headed flower with many treasures wrapped around beads.

In addition, there is a set of five-piece silver plum butterfly dot emerald head face, which is made of emerald emerald technique. Plum blossoms and butterflies are attached to the water chestnut flowers.

The stamens of plum blossoms are made of gold thread and rice beads, and the tentacles of butterflies are made of twisted gold thread.

complete set

The colors of the noodles are elegant yet gorgeous, and the materials used are simple yet exquisite, which is extremely chic.

Li Wan was a little puzzled and said, "Why are there more jewelry this year than in previous years?"

Sister Feng ate tea all the time, and when she heard the words, she put down the teacup and said with a smile: "This is what the old lady meant. She said that it would be too shabby and unattractive for the mother to visit her relatives after the next year. The girls added a few pieces of jewelry, and this year there are only a few more."

Li Wan was stunned, but he didn't think it was strange that the Jia's mansion had always been very ostentatious, and it was a grand family visit in Yuanchun, so it was naturally extravagant and extravagant.

The two chatted for a while, and Sister Feng was busy with things, so she also found time to come here this time, and left in a hurry after having a cup of tea.

Danju and Xiuzhu brought the girls up to count the clothes in the box and register them in the book.

They are a moonlight satin embroidered magnolia flying butterfly pattern cloak, a royal blue curved water pattern woven gold satin cloak, and a lotus blue duo Lai double-breasted gown.

There are four other sets of jackets and skirts, which are a blue satin embroidered rich and noble three multi-pattern intertwined collar, and a white silk plain gold embroidered flower and butterfly pattern pleated skirt.

A white silk embroidered double-breasted jacket, a dark blue peony and dark eight immortals pattern woven gold satin silver mouse waistcoat, and a white silk silk embroidered butterfly pattern horse face skirt.

A moon-white bamboo-patterned gold satin double-breasted pleated skirt, and a scallion-yellow satin embroidered floral-patterned horse-face skirt.

The last set of dresses that I think is going to be worn on the day of visiting relatives is a lotus color satin embroidered peony cross-collar jacket. Lotus satin, embroidered with peonies.

It is matched with a pair of emerald blue tapestry silk with eight clusters of lantern scenes and fox fur double breasts, and the collar and cuffs are trimmed with azure blue gold satin.

There is also a moon-white swastika water-woven gold satin horse-face skirt, the lower part of the front is decorated with wishful cloud heads, the edge is lake-colored pomegranate ribbons, and the Yuan blue satin is embroidered with peony Tuan Shou.

The whole set of clothes has fine stitches, elegant patterns and colors, and is dignified and stable.

After Li Wan looked at it, he handed over the clothes to Xiu Zhu and put them away, saying: "When the time comes, you can wear this to visit your relatives. You have time to see if there is any suitable material, and make a set of shoes and socks to wear with it."

Xiuzhu agreed, took the clothes and looked at them carefully, and said with a smile: "I think I have put a lot of effort into the sewing room this time, and the clothes are much more delicate than usual."

Suyun and others laughed and said: "My mother's visit is a great event in our house. The old lady and the wife have repeatedly talked about everything that needs to be done carefully, so they naturally have to put their utmost thought into it."

Danju also took a closer look, and said: "I remember

There is also a pair of lotus-colored satin flat gold and silver embroidered peony shoes in the box in the room. Grandma used to think that they were a bit rich, so they have been pressed at the bottom of the box. looking around. "

Li Wan never worried much about these things, he nodded and said: "You can do as you see."

After packing up, it was already lunch time. Li Wan came to Mrs. Wang's room and saw Sister Feng, Baochai and Tanchun sisters all gossiping in Mrs. Wang's room.

Not long after, the kitchen brought food boxes over, and Li Wan ordered his mother-in-law to prepare meals.

Sister Feng was also watching the girl put the dishes and chopsticks, and suddenly saw Lin Zhixiao's family standing outside the door, seemingly holding a letter in his hand. Sister Feng winked.

Although Sister Feng was full of suspicions, she already guessed that it was not a good thing, so she made a shameful look and told her not to come in.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang saw the change in Sister Feng's face, she turned her eyes to the outside and shook her head to signal, she couldn't help frowning, and raised her voice to ask: "Who is in the yard? Why don't the sneaky ones come in?"

Lin Zhixiao's family agreed, hurriedly wiped his sweat and came in, glanced at Li Wan and Mrs. Wang, hesitantly presented the letter in his hand, and said: "Master Lin Gu's family is here, this is a letter sent , Said it was for Grandma."

Everyone was startled when they heard the words, they were very puzzled, logically the Lin family should submit letters to Jia Mu or Jia Zhengcai, why would they name Li Wan?

Seeing her hesitating, Li Wan's face was also a little ominous, his heart suddenly jumped, and he didn't care about other things, he snatched the envelope, quickly opened it, looked at ten lines, and suddenly his eyes went dark, his body staggered, and he fell to the ground.

Everyone jumped, and hurried forward to support her, "Sister-in-law!"

"Grandma!"
