[Red House] The Twins of Purple Pearls

Midsummer is gradually approaching, and the heat is scorching; Yangzhou City has not rained for a long time, and it is even more difficult to bear the scorching heat.

Jia Min took some Fuxiangluo from the storeroom and cut some summer clothes for Yanyu and Daiyu. Because Zhao Yue took sick leave, the sisters didn't go to Yunqi Pavilion anymore, they just stayed with their mother in the main courtyard.The trees in the main courtyard are dense and shady, and ice cubes are placed in the tank to enjoy the coolness, which makes it feel a little cooler.

Yan'er was already able to turn over, so Jia Min hugged him and put him on the Huanghuali Gaoweizi Luohan bed; Daiyu crawled around beside him to tease him, Yan'er's eyes followed her sister all the time, and then burst into tears.

"Yu'er, don't tease Yan'er." Jia Min was fiddling with a few pots of flowers on the desk, pruning them out and arranging them, when he heard Yan'er crying, he turned his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

It was rare for Yanyu to sit quietly beside Jia Min and watch her mother insert the bottle seriously, and when she looked back at her younger siblings, she also smiled and said, "Yu'er can't wait to watch Yan'er day and night."

Daiyu poked her younger brother's chubby face before she came over and asked Jia Min curiously, "Mother, my sister and I grew up like my younger brother when we were young?"

Thinking of the appearance of the two daughters when they were born, Jia Min couldn't help but smile: "You were very cute when you were babies."

Yanyu twirled a budding magnolia flower to the tip of her nose and sniffed it, then handed it to Daiyu.

"I will go to Liangguang Temple to offer incense tomorrow, and your sisters are also preparing." Jia Min cut off a peacock flower and put it in a vase, and said gently.

Yanyu and Daiyu were all cheered when they heard that they could go to incense with their mother, and Jia Min smiled lightly when she saw the joy of her daughters.

The next morning, Yanyu and Daiyu got up early, picked out thin Yuebai Luo skirts, the breeze blew away the heat, and Yubai and Yezi were holding a cool jade fan to enjoy the coolness.After eating only two pieces of mung bean glutinous rice cake and Qinglian candy, Yanyu and Daiyu went to the main room to wait for their mother to go out together.

Jia Min was wearing a dark moon-patterned green trousers, and Jiang Bi came out beside Jia Min. Seeing their sisters, she smiled and said, "Your sister, can you have breakfast? My wife asked the small kitchen to bring my sister's favorite golden soufflé and aromatherapy." drink."

Yanyu and Daiyu had breakfast with Jia Min again, Qian Yi's daughter-in-law came in to report that the carriage was ready, and Jia Min and his party went out.

Yanyu opened the gap in the embroidered curtain and looked out, the streets and alleys were deserted and desolate, and it was rare to see a servant girl who came out to run errands passing by.

"Mother, have thieves entered the city to make trouble recently?" Daiyu had heard that there would be thieves to make trouble in the Shangyuan Lantern, but seeing such a desolate scene again, she couldn't help being suspicious.

"The weather is bad lately." Jia Min sighed, shaking the acacia fan.

Listening to the sound of the rut turning slowly, the cicadas chirp endlessly, and even the breeze blows with the scorching summer air.

Yanyu leaned against the carriage in a dazed state, half asleep and half awake, perhaps because she got up too early in the morning; she didn't wake up until she arrived at Liangguang Temple, and Mammy Liu poured a cup of mint tea for Yanyu to drink. Yanyu felt a little refreshed.

Liangguang Temple is the first temple in Yangzhou City. It is magnificent and magnificent, with glazed tiles shining in the sun;Perhaps it was because Fairy Jing Huan once sent a Taoist priest and a monk with a scarlet head to play tricks, Yanyu had inexplicable resistance to the monk's way, so she pulled Daiyu calmly.

In front of the Buddha in the main hall, Jia Min knelt down on the futon and kowtowed reverently, and asked his two daughters to also kneel down to worship the Buddha.

Yanyu remembered that Fairy Chixia said that people in the world like to worship immortals; now she is even more curious, and she also learns Jia Min to kneel down properly.

"Sister Min." Hearing someone calling suddenly, Jia Min turned around and saw a radiant lady approaching gracefully. It was her cousin Shi Shi who married into the Zhuang family, so she greeted her with a smile, "Cousin."

Because Master Zhuang is about to be transferred back to Beijing, Zhuang Shishi came to Liangguang Temple to pray.

Jia Min already knew about Mr. Zhuang's transfer, so he took Zhuang Shi's hand and asked in a low voice, "Will Sister Mu come to Beijing with you?"

"Sister Mu is weak, and she can't stand the long-distance travel." Mentioning the young daughter, Zhuang Shishi sighed, "Besides, Miss Mu..." Zhuang Shishi seemed to want to say something, In the end, it just turned into a long sigh.

"Yangzhou's landscape is pleasant, so it's better for Miss Mu to stay here." Jia Min had no choice but to persuade her.

Zhuang Shishi brought Zhuang Mu to pray and offer incense, and now the nanny took Zhuang Mu for a walk in the apricot garden behind the temple, so Jia Min asked Yanyu and Daiyu to also go to the apricot garden to play with sister Mu.

Zhuang Mu looked unhappy, probably because the little girl was sensitive and thoughtful, and when she heard that the family returned to Beijing and left her alone in Yangzhou to accompany her grandmother who had lived in the old house for a long time, she thought that her parents didn't want her.

Seeing Yanyu and Daiyu coming over, Zhuang Mucai raised his head and softly called out, "Sister Yan, Sister Yu."

"Sister Mu." Daiyu sat on the stone bench next to Zhuang Mu, and Yanyu also sat next to her sister, "I heard that you have been ill recently."

"It's just uncomfortably hot." Zhuang Mu has always been honest and doesn't know how to lie.

Yanyu chatted with Zhuang Mu about interesting things, even Daiyu didn't know that her own sister was so eloquent, which made Zhuang Mu smile a little bit.

An apricot blossom fell in Zhuang Mu's hair, the little girl reached out to touch it, twirled the apricot blossom, held it in her palm and sniffed it gently.

"You will often play with us in the future, okay?" Daiyu also smiled, "We sisters are usually watched by the foster mother when we are at home."

"The mother-in-law in our family is also very strict, and my sisters dare not behave in front of her." Zhuang Mu also had the wrong feeling that Tianya was a fallen person.

It was rare for the Lin family sisters to see Zhuang Mu, and after a few more conversations, Mother Liu, who was beside Jia Min, came to look for the two girls, perhaps she had heard the scriptures and wanted to go back; Zhuang Mu followed them to the front hall.

There are still shadows in the apricot blossom forest, and Yanyu turned her head inadvertently and happened to see a familiar figure walking around the apse and walking into the apricot blossom forest in a hurry.

Isn't Mr. Zhao sick?Why did he also appear in Liangguang Temple?

Yanyu looked again, and saw a young man in a black cloak coming out of the apricot blossom forest.

Yanyu quickly turned around and ran away.

Jia Min came out of the Buddhist hall with Zhuang Shishi after paying homage to the Buddha, and originally wanted to invite Zhuang Shishi's mother and daughter to the mansion to have a talk, but because Master Zhuang called back soon, Zhuang Shishi politely refused.

"Sister Mu will often come to the house to play in the future." Jia Min caressed Zhuang Mu lovingly; the Zhuang family had five heirs, and Zhuang Mu had five older brothers and seven older sisters. The house is lonely, so it would be good for Zhuang Mu and Yanyu Daiyu to come and go frequently, "Sister Mu, I am also in pain."

"Ms. Mu is young and weak, which also makes me worry." Zhuang Shi said with a low eyebrow.

Daiyu and Zhuang Mu also didn't understand the subtext between the words of their mother and aunt. While the two little girls were whispering, Yanyu still looked thoughtful.

It was not until the evening when the sisters were sitting on the kang reading a book after taking a bath that Daiyu asked Yanyu, "Sister, are you unhappy when you go to Liangguang Temple with your mother to pray for blessings? I see you are always looking sad."

Yanyu leaned against the table with her book in her arms, shook her head, pulled her sister mysteriously and said: "On New Year's Eve, I dreamed that a golden god descended from the sky, and I happened to see a person in Xingyuan, and that person The gods have the same face."

Daiyu was very surprised: "Is there really such a miraculous thing?"

Yanyu said vividly: "I see it for real." In fact, this is not the first time I have seen the person with the face of Tianxuan Xingjun, but it is not easy to tell my sister.

"Sister, if you see it again, remember to tell me; I also want to see what the god looks like." Daiyu pulled Yanyu's clothes and said expectantly.

"Definitely next time." Yanyu agreed wholeheartedly.

During Yan'er's full moon banquet, she saw that young man and Mr. Zhao being taken to the study by Qian Guanshi, and Yanyu thought that maybe they had something to do with each other.She has heard the conversation between Lin Ruhai and Jia Min, so she knows Mr. Zhao's background. Recently, her father and mother have been frowning because of the things in the capital; Yanyu can't feel at ease.

Under the dim light, Daiyu was seriously reading a book.One of the ancestors of the Lin family was an elegant and noble person who loved to study ancient books and classics. He collected many lost ancient books and scrolls, and now they are all arranged on the sandalwood bookshelf in the study; the "Que Zi" that Daiyu is reading now Even if it was taken from the study, it is said to be a lost book of the political strategist, and she also read it with great interest.Lin Ruhai also agreed with her daughter's extensive reading, saying that the girl was detained in the backyard, and she should also read more books to increase her knowledge; Daiyu has always been very intelligent, and if she can understand the true meaning, it is not impossible to become a generation of masters.

Fairy Jing Huan deceived sister Jiang Zhu into the world and became the daughter of the Lin family, and the fate arranged for her was also extremely bad.

His parents died, his family was separated, he lived under the fence, and died with tears.

Yanyu has never read Daiyu's fate book, but only learned about this situation from Fairy Zelan, so she came down with her sister.

Now everything has changed because of her arrival, and Fairy Jing Huan's poisonous plan has also come to nothing, she will definitely not let it go; it's just that the immortals in the Lihen sky cannot travel between the two worlds for a long time, unless Fairy Jing Huan is willing to give up her fairy body and live in the world for a lifetime Otherwise, she can only support people such as lame Taoist priests and scarlet monks as puppets to do things for her.

But where in the world did that Shenying waiter go?Yanyu secretly kept her eyes open, not to let her sister meet that person, and to teach the policeman Huanxiangu to succeed in her trick.

"Sister, why are you looking at me all the time?" Daiyu suddenly noticed that Yanyu seemed to be staring at her fascinated, and said jokingly, "Could it be that Yu'er's beautiful appearance made my sister look fascinated."

"Little girl!" Yanyu smiled and nodded her sister's nose, lovingly.

"I read "Que Zi" and found it very beneficial, do you want to read it?" Daiyu closed the book and handed it to Yanyu and asked, Yanyu rubbed her temples pretending to have a headache: "It is said that the theory of vertical and horizontal is the culmination of ancient and modern strategies Or, I have no wish to be a virtuous minister in the world, so I don’t read such a book with profound connotations.”

Daiyu caressed the ancient book, slightly curled her lips and announced her lofty ambitions: "If I was born as a man, I should aspire to serve the country and be a worthy and capable minister so as to rule the country and bring peace to the world." I believe that with the talent and wisdom of my own sister, I should be a capable minister in governing the world.Although she and Daiyu are twin sisters, their temperaments are not similar; besides, the younger sister is really a simple and well-behaved little girl, and Yanyu has a thousand-year memory of seeing the changes in the world, so she really doesn't want to be too obsessed with fascinating things. I just wish my sister a safe life.
