Old things in the Red Chamber

Although Wei Ruolan's illness has improved, there is still a long way to go before the real recovery. The historians were very satisfied with this marriage, and they don't want to end it hastily at this time.But the princess mansion is also getting annoyed, now that the eldest son of the princess and consort, Wei Ruomei, has grown up, received a job, has a bright future, and has been close to his brother since he was a child, he doesn't want his brother to hold his nose and admit to this marriage The two talked for a long time, and in the end there were only two words "retirement".

The Shi family brothers had no choice but to withdraw from this marriage, so they had to go to Rongguo Mansion to let Jia Baoyu marry Shi Xiangyun. Shi Taijun agreed with both hands, Jia Zheng thought about it, and approved of this matter, but Mrs. Wang kept saying it. The palace empress.

The Shijia brothers were furious, "The girls in our family have suffered because of your lax management of the family, and the reputation of the slaves has been hurt. Now you have brought out your mother to suppress us."

Shi Ding was trembling with anger, and he clasped his fists with Shi Taijun, "Auntie, we don't beg your family anymore, and Auntie also don't send someone to pick up Xiangyun. Let's leave now."

The two brothers went out angrily, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng yelled behind them, if they let their brothers go out like this, the four big families are really at an end, if they go out in the future, they will be the three big families.

Jia Zheng was younger than Jia She, so he stopped the historian's second child first, and Jia She ran a few steps from behind and hugged the historian's third child.He was born in the army and has a strong body. The brothers of the Jia family here are weak chickens. One is a civil servant, and the other is an old dude who is greedy for wine and sex. When he struggled, both were overturned to the ground.The historian's regular attendants kept the two Marquis in the middle and walked away.

Jia Zheng turned his head back angrily, and pointed at Mrs. Wang, "Ignorant woman, you ruined our family's affairs."

Mrs. Wang was too frightened to move. After a while, a eunuch came to the palace, sent by the noble concubine. He came to have a sip of tea, and said something nice about Xue's cousin. Baoyu should marry like this. daughter-in-law.

Jia Zheng blushed angrily and had a thick neck.

Jia Amnesty was overturned just now, and only felt a severe pain in his waist. Now, whoops, he was helped to the next door to see that his waist was already swollen.

Jia Amnesty's people began to ask the doctor on their backs again, and the doctor saw it and said, "This is showing off."

Wang Xifeng urged Jia Lian to move back first, "You always have to serve the old man, don't you?"

When I told Shi Taijun, Shi Taijun thought that the elder son was an innocent disaster. He ran around for his nephew, but now he is shivering because of the third son of the Shi family.Nodded, "Take good care of your father, and tell me what is missing."

Ping'er packed the valuables, and took a few people to the East Courtyard first. Although Mrs. Xing was annoyed, she didn't dare to show it on her face. Watching Ping'er arrange for people to clean the house and arrange the things, here Jia Lian and his wife occupied a large yard, and there was no need for a family of three to squeeze into three houses.The eldest sister was very happy in her heart, and ran to Jia She to greet her obediently. Jia She thought, this disease is also good, at least her granddaughter is here.Coaxing the eldest sister, "When grandfather is well, I will take you to play with your little sister Xuan'er."

Shi Jia's brother acted quickly and went to the official department for some activities. Shi Ding found an outside job and took his wife Jiaxiao and niece Xiangyun to other places.

The purpose is to find a family in other places, the girl's youth can't afford to be wasted, and she will become an old girl before the people in Kyoto forget about her business.

In the past few days, Shi Taijun frequently posted posts inviting the female family members of Shihou's family to come to the mansion for a banquet. The Shi family pushed and pushed, but Xiangyun was severely watched by his uncle and aunt recently, and wanted to go out for a walk.Her aunt was angry, "Miss, don't you know the situation of Miss now? For you, your uncle will not be a general, but find a military officer and let him go. After a while, let's go. You find a good family, and if you want to go out once a few days, that's your own business. Now that you are on the cusp of the storm, can you live in peace for a while?"

Shi Xiangyun couldn't help crying too, "Auntie, I'm going to go around the garden of Rongguo Mansion. I'm out now, and I don't know if I can come back in this life. I want to say goodbye to my sisters. I go back today and tomorrow Definitely come back."

Shi Hou's wife was also sad. They had tortured the servants who followed Shi Xiangyun, and they knew that they were cousins ​​playing together, and nothing excessive happened. The servants in the family were speechless, thinking about Xiangyun's miserable life, Mrs. Shihou felt a little softer, "I raised you, and I did this for your own good. Don't worry, if it wasn't for a good family , we will not betroth you randomly. You can play if you want, you should also know how important fame is to girls, and you must respect yourself. Go, send someone to pick you up tonight, After two or three days, we will leave Kyoto."

Xiangyun thanked Mrs. Shi Hou with tears streaming down his face.

When Shi Taijun saw Xiangyun coming, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled her and asked her how she was doing at home these days. Shi Xiangyun said that she kept doing homework, from clothes and shoes to handkerchiefs and sweat towels. of.

This was heard by Jia Baoyu who was outside the door, lifted the curtain and came in, rolled into Shi Taijun's arms, coquettishly, "Old Ancestor, we won't let sister Xiangyun go back, stay at our house every day. "

Shi Taijun's heart moved, "Okay, okay, you go to the garden to play."

At this time, Xue Baochai and Jia Tanchun and Jia Xichun also followed, and together they took Xiangyun to the Grand View Garden.

Tanchun said, "We started a club a few days ago, and you just came, and our Begonia club has become more prosperous."

Xue Baochai also said, "It's just right, how about we start a club again while there are so many people today?"

Baoyu naturally agreed.

Shi Xiangyun was uneasy at first, but when he looked at the people in front of him, he suddenly became enlightened like the clouds and the moon. He thought that if he was divorced once, he would die or live, so I would not act like a child.He raised his hand boldly, "Poetry reciting needs to be paired with good wine, and we must have a good time before returning home."

"I'll tell you, it won't hurt to exercise your muscles and bones on weekdays. Look at you, you will be like this after being pushed by Shi Laosan." Jia Gu pressed Jia She's waist, and Jia She started Cry up.

"Are you my real brother? You should beat Shi Laosan for me. Let me tell you, if he doesn't know that I'm sick, he won't send someone to greet me."

"I don't even intend to talk to your relatives anymore, and I still want to greet you." Jia Gu took the plaster from Jia Lian's hand and stuck it on Jia Amnesty's waist. Follow Jia Laoer like a headless chicken."

Jia Amnesty frowned and asked, "What did Jia Cunzhou do?"

"What else can I do, why not invite Wang Ziteng to make peace, now even Wang Ziteng's face will be lost."

As soon as someone showed his head outside, Jia Lian turned around and went out, stopped at the door to report a few words and walked back quickly, "Father, uncle, just now the old lady sent the Lai family's wife to the Shi family to bring up Baoyu's marriage with the Shi family. "

Jia Gu also admired Shi Taijun's hard work.When Jia She heard this, he felt that his waist was hurting even more, and he said, "If this is the case, my crime will be for nothing."

"Regardless of success or failure, your crime is worthless. That's enough, I should go back. You can use this plaster, which is better than getting it from a doctor. This is a good medicine that has been tempered in the army."

"I see. If it's not enough, I'll send Lian'er to ask you for it. Lian'er, send your uncle off for me."

Jia Lian sent Jia Gu out of the house in a dizzy manner. After walking halfway, Jia Gu stopped suddenly, stretched out and grabbed Jia Lian's ear, and lifted it up. Jia Lian suddenly cried out in pain, "You know what this mess is about. How did you get up? Someone heard about the nasty affair between you and Jia Zhen and the sisters of the You family. Jue, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture beat the staff in court, and the emperor was sprayed with foam all over the face by the emperor." He glanced up and down at Jia Lian, "I heard that you made people scold your ancestors for eight generations in order to make your sisters happy. Is that right? Let me tell you, Jia Lian, if I hear you insulting your grandfather with those dubious people again, do you believe that I will chop you into pieces?"

Jia Lian nodded frantically, "Uncle...how do you start with this? The Wei family retired...Uncle, you have to save me."

Jia Gu raised his ear, "Help you, do you know how much trouble you have caused? People say that it is better to demolish ten temples to make up for one marriage. You ruined the marriage of a girl from another family historian, and ruined your marriage. The grandmother's natal family was offended, the old woman is so old, and she even lost her natal family in her later years, so Princess Wei's mansion is eyeing the Rongguo mansion, you should calculate carefully, when this matter subsides, how many people will come to settle accounts with you brothers .Yes, the Gu family is our relatives. The uncle of the country suffered twenty court sticks for nothing, right? The title of King Xiangyang was lost for nothing? Isn’t the second child of the Wei family sick for nothing? The girl from the Shi family deserves to be divorced Yes or no?"

"Uncle, you must save me, my father is only my son..."

"If it wasn't for your father, I would take care of you. But I told you that I just take care of you this time. If you try to kill me again, I don't care. If you do it again and again, your wife will take advantage of it." Money is one, your matter this time is two, don't have three again."

"Mmm, my nephew understands."

As soon as Jia Gu let go, Jia Lian fell to the ground in an instant, and Jia Gu lifted his legs and left.Jia Lian's servants gathered around, "Second Master, how are you, Second Master? Master Jiahou is too bullying. You are a nephew anyway, so he can't beat and scold you like this."

Jia Lian slapped the servant, rubbed his ears, got up, stumbled towards the main courtyard, and arrived at Jia She's room, just about to throw him down on Jia She's bed and cry, but when he thought about it, if he disturbed him again Father, uncle is even more annoyed now.After such a pause, he stood timidly at the door.

Jia Amnesty glanced at him, "What's the matter? Your uncle said you."

"Uncle told me to take good care of you, don't run out these days."

"You are the horse without a bridle, so it's your uncle who should talk about you. Come on, don't stick here, go back to your yard, sir, I'll sleep for a while."

"Hey, my son has gone back." Jia Lian withdrew, thought about the matter, and took his servants to a secluded yard, and ordered someone to take down the servants who often followed him, " For the things that betrayed the master, they gave you a few silver coins, and they took the matter of the master as a joke, didn't they?"

A few people cried out for injustice together, Jia Lian watched their eyeballs rolling wildly, and felt a bit preoccupied in his heart, and snorted, "Don't worry, the Lord will not punish you." The punishment will not be light.

Sure enough, as Gu Yun said, his injury was a flesh injury.After five or six days of raising the scabs, she was able to get up and walk around for a while every day. In addition to the medicine applied, the decoction was also stopped, so Lin Daiyu really felt relieved.

"It scares the hell out of me."

Gu Yun smiled, "Let me tell you, all the board-players in the palace are skilled. They guess the emperor's mind and know the severity. I told you I'm fine, but you still didn't listen."

Their son next to him woke up at this time, Lin Daiyu reached into the swaddle and touched it, "It's time to change the diaper again."

Gu Yun looked at her and laughed, "When you first married me, you were full of immortality. Now... you are also full of fairy spirit, but I don't worry that you will become a fairy at any time."

Lin Daiyu rolled his eyes at him, and watched as the nanny carried the child to the next room, and sat beside Gu Yun, "I might be a real fairy in the sky, I'm doing you a favor."

"Yes, yes, it was my blessing in my previous life, and I only married you in this life."

Lin Daiyu covered half of her face in embarrassment, "It's not serious, let me tell you, just now my second sister-in-law sent someone to bring in something, and I said it's not a festival, what to send, the person who sent it also said If you don’t know, I’ll take the things first, and when you’re well, I’ll send someone to ask Lian’er’s sister-in-law.”

Gu Yun smiled, "Don't go, take it for you."

Lin Daiyu glanced at him, "But what happened to Brother Lian?"

"We met, but things are settled, he is a thank you."

Lin Daiyu nodded, "I see." She didn't inquire about their outside affairs either.

When Shi Hou went out of Beijing, many people came to see him off, including Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng.Jia Zheng didn't dare to take Jia Baoyu with him, and Jia Amnesty helped Jia Lian. When they said goodbye, most of the generals said "safe journey", but Jia Zheng wanted to write a poem as farewell. Jumping and jumping, Jia Amnesty hurriedly stopped Jia Zheng to express his sorrow.It is mainly military generals and civil servants who are not all the way. If everyone can bear it in the past, but now that the two families are in disgrace, the Shi family brothers don’t have to bear it. Post station." Someone sent a box of jerky, a box of preserved fruit, and a box of candy, "Give it to the children on the way." Lord Shi Hou thanked him awkwardly.

Jia Lian quickly stabbed Jia She, and Jia She endured the pain in his back, pulled the two Shijia brothers and said, "Once the term of office is over, if you can use our brothers, our brothers will never say anything."

The third son of the historian blushed with shame, bowed to Jia She to make amends, and he also knew that he had lifted Jia She, which made the old dude shiver, and it was more serious.The two brothers knew who he was referring to by "our brothers", and they could only feel grateful. Jia She heaved a sigh of relief. At any rate, the relationship was preserved. Although they were not as close as before, they were close before meeting each other. The point of drawing a knife.

Shi Xiangyun sighed in the car and held his cousin in his arms, feeling really mixed feelings in his heart.

Mrs. Tong's life has been difficult these days, and she tosses and turns at night and cannot sleep.The reason was that Lin Daiyu had just given birth to a child who had a gas disease.

"I specially asked someone to ask. Mrs. Lin heard that he started coughing up blood in the last few months. This is also a shortness of breath. When Xiner's mother first came to our house, she also coughed badly when the seasons changed. You said Did this disease spread to Xin'er?"

Jia Gu frowned several times when he heard Mrs. Tong's words, but said nothing.

Mrs. Tong was so anxious that she couldn't fall asleep, "Do you think my uncle will annoy my niece because of this incident?"

Human nature is complicated, and Jia Gu knows it. When attacking a city, the strategists always have a thorough understanding of the character of the enemy's general. This is one of the factors that determine the victory thousands of miles away.Jia Gu couldn't fall asleep anymore, "Go to bed first, I'll talk to the gentlemen who live in the front yard."

"Go ahead. I'll go see my niece tomorrow. I don't know how she's crying."

As Mrs. Tong expected, Lin Daiyu cried all night.Gu Yun also didn't close his eyes all night, and both of them were very haggard when they got up in the morning.

After Mrs. Tong arrived, the two tidied up to welcome her out. Mrs. Tong looked at Lin Daiyu with eyes like rotten peaches.

"Hey, you kid, it's not a big deal. Gas illness is not a serious illness. When you first came to me, did you cough every day? Now look again, is it only during the few days when the season changes? Cough, as long as you take good care of it, it’s better than anything else. If you don’t have enough medicinal materials, you can tell me that my natal family sells medicinal materials and has everything you want.”

Gu Yun stood up first and thanked Mrs. Tong, and he felt better after Mrs. Tong said, "I also persuaded Madam that way. My brother and sister-in-law also came yesterday. My brother said that our family is all civil servants, as long as we strengthen our bodies every day." If you are healthy, you can still live for a long time, and you won't miss your future."

"What my brother-in-law said is very true."

The nanny brought the baby up, and Mrs. Tong took it. A few days ago, the nanny found that the baby was slightly panting, and because of this, she specially invited the imperial physician.

"I don't think it's serious, and he didn't cry every day because of this, you two can rest assured."

Things have come to this, can only double take care of the children.Mrs. Tong was afraid that the two of them would raise the child into a big girl, "When the child is able to run away, let Xun'er take him to practice martial arts, so as to strengthen his body, and if he moves more, he can eat more and grow stronger."

There is no other way but to do so.

At night, Lin Daiyu was still lying on Gu Yun's body, "It's all my fault, as long as my body is better, he will not give birth prematurely, let alone suffer from this disease."

Gu Yun quickly persuaded him, and also said that the child's shortness of breath is not serious, just a little wheezing, and it will be good to raise the child stronger in the next few years.

Lin Daiyu didn't sleep the night before, and fell asleep after crying for a while this night. Gu Yun got up and went to the next door to check on the child. Seeing that the son was sleeping soundly, the waiter said that he had just had milk, so he felt relieved.Back in the bedroom, lying beside his wife, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Lin Daiyu vaguely felt that Gu Yun got up and came back to lie down again. After a while, when she heard the cry of the child, she immediately sat up and asked, "What's wrong, brother?"

There was no response in the empty house, she stood up anxiously, without thinking about putting on her clothes, and rushed out the door, and there was a sea of ​​clouds outside.

A few people stepped on the clouds in the distance and chased after her, one of them pulled her, "Sister, why did you abandon the waiter Shenying?"

Lin Daiyu pulled out her hand, thinking about her son, "Who are you waiting for?" Looking around, the sea of ​​clouds is churning here, and she can't find the way she came here.

"Sister, come with me." One of them pulled her, and several of them flew through the clouds, Lin Daiyu kept struggling, "I have to go back and take care of my son, who is the fairy, let me go."

One of them said, "My sister is so confused. We were Qing Jing's daughters, so why did my sister get married?"

Some people also said, "My sister has been in the world for less than [-] years, and she is destined to have no husband and no children. Today, my sister is here, so don't go back."

Others chirped and thought this method was good, but Lin Daiyu had a delicate heart, and immediately understood her situation, and struggled even harder.At this time, a group of people saw that they were going to pass an archway, but a man and a woman in front blocked their way.

This group of people quickly stopped to salute, and they called Guancho Haizhu. Lin Daiyu saw that it was her parents. She broke away from them and ran over, threw herself into her mother's arms, grabbed her clothes, and tears rolled down her face.

The woman asked, "Why are you here again, why don't you stay at home and take care of your husband and children?"

Lin Daiyu burst into tears when she heard it, "My daughter gave birth to a son a few months ago, but a few days ago, I found out that the child had a gas disease, and I felt uncomfortable. I stayed up all day and night, and fell asleep unconsciously. Check it out here."

The beautiful woman put her arms around Lin Daiyu and said distressedly, "My son's fate is really rough."

Guanchou Haizhu turned around and calculated with his fingers, "Your child is congenitally born before birth, and it is difficult to eradicate. You take this bottle back and feed him the sea water in it, so that he will suffer less."

Lin Daiyu wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "Thank you, Dad." Finally, she said shyly to her parents, "Fourth Master, he promised to adopt our second son to our parents as a grandson. Give him a brother."

Guanchou Haizhu stroked his beard, "Okay, okay, if you have a second son, it will be called Miao, three waters become Miao, how about it?"

"Listen to Daddy."

"Go back, it's too late, your husband should be in a hurry."

Lin Daiyu was pushed by her mother and woke up suddenly. There was indeed a baby crying in her ears. She turned over and just moved a little. Gu Yun had already woken up. "What's wrong? Is it dawn?"

Both of them heard the child's voice, Gu Yun sat up, "Don't move, I'll bring the little ancestor here."

Lin Daiyu nodded, and suddenly found that she was holding a jade bottle with the length of a thumb in her hand. The jade was shiny and smooth, and it looked like good jade.Her heart was beating wildly, Gu Yun had already returned with the baby in her arms.

"This kid wet his swaddle, and he fell asleep and started to yell." Putting the child in Lin Daiyu's arms, she looked at her holding a jade bottle with a cork on it, and asked her, "What is this?" What? Where did it come from?"

Lin Daiyu hugged her son tightly, and passed the bottle over, "Fourth Master, it's amazing, I dreamed about my parents just now."
