[Comprehensive] The power of wish

Chapter 5 Dream of the Red Chamber

What are you talking about? Some time ago, Ouyang Qingqing was thinking that she hadn't met the rest of Jia's family. No, she received an invitation post.

The wives and ladies of Rongguo Mansion are going to Foguang Temple, and they invite the old lady of Wu'anhou Mansion, Mrs. Wu'anhou and Miss Wu'anhou to go together.

Ouyang Qingqing was tired of staying in the Hou Mansion, so she accepted the appointment.

It's late autumn now, and I heard that the maple leaves in Foguang Temple are famous and beautiful, so Ouyang Qingqing naturally wanted to see them.

Yu Quan, Marquis of Wu'an, heard that his mother was going to Foguang Temple, thinking that they were all female relatives, and felt unsafe, so he wanted to go with her.When Rongguo Mansion heard that Lord Hou was going too, Mother Jia called Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng and told them to go too.

Although Yu Quan was a civil servant, he also came from a family of military commanders, so riding a horse was no problem.Ouyang Qingqing and Mrs. Yu had a carriage, Lin Daiyu and Yu Lan had a horse, and a few servants' carriages were arranged behind them.Yu Quan was riding a horse, and the guards were also riding horses. A group of people set off to Foguang Temple in a mighty way.

After leaving the city, it became quieter and quieter as we walked, almost only the sound of their carriages and horses could be heard clearly.Ouyang Qingqing opened the curtain of the carriage, looked around, and saw maple leaves all over the mountain, bright red, really beautiful.

When we arrived in front of Foguang Temple, the abbot had already been waiting. When he saw the female relatives coming down, he personally welcomed them in.

Because they planned to stay for a few days, they all went to the yard prepared for them to make some repairs first, and the people from Rongguo Mansion hadn't arrived yet.Ouyang Qingqing saw that the maids were tidying up their things and left the eldest lady to arrange matters, so she took Lin Daiyu and Lan'er for a stroll in the temple. Lan'er's younger brother was still young, so she didn't bring her with her this time.

The maple forest in the backyard is really beautiful.Seeing this scene, Yu Lan happily told Ouyang Qingqing that she learned a dance with Lin Daiyu and wanted to show Ouyang Qingqing.

A nine-year-old girl and a seven-year-old girl danced lightly. Because of their cute age, the dance was very lively.Ouyang Qingqing watched the two girls dance, and suddenly felt a sense of tranquility.

After the dance between the two, Daiyu was a little panting, but Lan'er was more energetic.Mrs. Yu also came over and said that it was the Jia family.

When the people on both sides got together, Ouyang Qingqing really admired Shi Taijun. The people around her were really good-looking.

People from the Jia family included Shi Taijun, Sanchun, Wang Shi, Xing Shi, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, Aunt Xue, Xue Baochai, Jia Baoyu, Jia Lian, Jia She, and Jia Zheng.

The two sides met each other and Yu Quan invited Jia Amnesty Jia Zheng and Jia Lian Jia Baoyu to go to the meditation room to listen to Buddhist teachings.Jia Baoyu looked very unwilling, but he didn't dare to refute his father, and looked at Shi Taijun for help.

Shi Taijun knew Yu Quan well, and he was a powerful Marquis. If Jia Baoyu fell into this man's eyes, it would be the best if he wanted to facilitate the marriage of the two Yu'er and promote Baoyu's future.So he asked Baoyu to study hard with Lord Yuhou, and let him follow.

The men left, and the ladies here began to worship Buddha.

Ouyang Qingqing discovered that Lin Daiyu had offered Buddhist scriptures in front of the Buddha, and Mrs. Yu looked at Daiyu with loving eyes, which seemed to be much softer at this time.After asking, I found out that these were Buddhist scriptures that Daiyu had copied for Jia Min in the past few years. When I came to this century-old temple this time, I naturally invited the eminent monks here to chant scriptures for Jia Min, wishing her peace in the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss.

Everyone praised Daiyu's filial piety, and Shi Taijun even cried, thinking of her daughter who died young, and looking at her young granddaughter, she couldn't help feeling sad.

Wang has always disliked Daiyu, and she disagreed with Jia's mother wanting Daiyu to match Baoyu.Seeing that Daiyu is not a long-lived person, and her body is weak, I am afraid that it will be difficult for her children in the future.So Wang brought Aunt Xue's family to Rongguo Mansion, and used Xue Baochai to set off Lin Daiyu, showing that Lin Daiyu had many shortcomings.

It is not true that the Wang family wants Jia Baoyu to marry Xue Baochai.Xue Baochai's status has always been low, maybe in the future the Rongguo Mansion will belong to her Baoyu, and Xue Baochai's status will not be enough.

Lin Daiyu now has a very powerful aunt, but it is not in Wang's consideration.

After worshiping the Buddha, the juniors clamored to go for a stroll. The adults saw that they were very relaxed, so they ordered the maids to take good care of the girls and let them go. Li Wan and Wang Xifeng also went to take care of them.

Ouyang Qingqing and Shi Taijun went to sit down in the pavilion together. After they sat down, they sipped the tea served by the little master.

"There is a tea garden in the back mountain of Foguang Temple. The abbot personally picks and roasts the tea leaves from the tea tree on the highest peak. It can only produce a few taels a year, but it is hard to find a lot of money. The old lady please." Ouyang Qingqing handed over the tea cup For Shi Taijun, she is considered the biggest elder here, and the etiquette she should have is still indispensable.

"Ma'am, you're welcome." Shi Taijun took the teacup, looked at the autumn scenery in the garden, and said with a smile, "I love these juniors the most. Winter is coming, and it's hard for them to go out. Before the weather is not the coldest , take them out to play and play."

"It's been the past few years for girls to be relaxed." Aunt Xue also sighed.

Mrs. Yu remained silent, she devoted herself to serving her mother-in-law, she really didn't like the rules of the Jia family, but she didn't want to argue with them too much.The first seat should be for Shi Taijun, but on Shi Taijun's right hand side, Wang, Aunt Xue, and Xing are in order.Alas, Mrs. Yu shook her head inwardly.

Speaking of the girls, since the last time Daiyu's maids were all ready, Tanchun has been a little uncomfortable.In Sanchunli, Yingchun was a concubine like her, but Jia Amnesty was the heir of the Rongguo Mansion, much higher than Jia Zheng's official position.Besides, Xichun, she is the legitimate daughter of the Ningguo Mansion, and now the sister of the head of the Jia family.Only she Tanchun, neither occupying the heirloom nor occupying a high position.Fortunately, in Rongguo Mansion, everyone is treated the same.

Sanchun couldn't accept the change of Lin Daiyu's current status at once. Yingchun Xichun was afraid that Daiyu would look down on them, and Tanchun was jealous. For a while, the three of them didn't talk to Lin Daiyu.

Only Xue Baochai seemed to be the same as before, sister Lin was long and sister Lin was short, chatting and laughing with Lin Daiyu.

When they went to one place, they saw a few foreign men, and the girls were all stunned.Ordinarily, the people in the temple would arrange guards, so why would there be a foreigner breaking in.Even the other party probably didn't expect to see so many girls at once, and both sides were stunned.

"I'm Wu Zijing, the second son of Wu Dashi's family. The little novice who led us has not come back yet. We walked here for a walk, and you are so rude." Among them, Wu Zijing bowed and apologized to the girls.

Lin Daiyu and his group hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it. Wang Xifeng, who was the housekeeper, had some vision. Seeing how extraordinary these people were, they hurried forward to salute.

"We are the family members of the Rongguo Mansion and the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion. Since we met by chance, you don't need to be too polite. The little lady will take her younger sister to the front garden." After Wang Xifeng finished speaking, she blessed herself, The few people behind her were also blessed and left.

Momo stood in front of the girls early, and after saluting, protected the girls and left.

"Zijing, I remember that your family is related to the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion. Why don't you greet your cousin from the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion?" After everyone had left, one of them joked.

"Your Majesty, be careful, I don't know the young lady of the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, and the relationship between our two families is a bit far away."

Several people were talking and slowly left.

The two houses planned to stay in Foguang Temple for five days, but on the third day, Marquis of Wu'an, Yu Quan, received an urgent letter.He unfolded it, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurried to the old lady's upper room.

Seeing Yu Quan coming, Ouyang Qingqing was very surprised. Seeing that his expression was not good, she asked, "Quan'er, why are you here at this time?"

"Mother, I just received a letter, which was sent by my uncle." Yu Quan calmed down, and he signaled his wife to prepare a life-saving pill before he dared to continue.

"Your uncle wrote to you? What did you say?" Ouyang Qingqing continued to ask.

"Mother, don't worry, something happened to Uncle." Yu Quan said with difficulty. The last time his mother was seriously ill, he was very scared.

Seeing that Yu Quan's expression was really wrong, Ouyang Qingqing said, "Show me the letter your uncle gave you."

Ouyang Qingqing opened it and looked at it, but couldn't believe it. Lin Ruhai was assassinated, fearing that there would be no cure, this was almost his last letter.In the letter, he gave Ouyang Qingqing all the assets of the Lin family for safekeeping, and wrote a special voucher to ask Ouyang Qingqing to raise Lin Daiyu.

These are not the main points, Ouyang Qingqing is completely dumbfounded.She remembered that the book said that Lin Ruhai died of illness, and she cured him of his illness, so how could he still be assassinated.

"Quan'er, did you receive any news later? Has your uncle been rescued?" Ouyang Qingqing felt that the old lady's emotions were still there, so she asked excitedly at this moment.

"Mother, when I received the letter, I sent someone to inquire about the news. The imperial court should have a report on this aspect, but I haven't read it for a few days, so I'll ask them to send it over immediately."

Yu Quan went out to wait for the news, leaving Madam Yu to accompany Ouyang Qingqing.

When Yu Quan came in again, Ouyang Qingqing immediately asked, "How is it?"

"Mother, uncle has gone." Yu Quan was very sad.

"Ah, mother!" Mrs. Yu saw the old lady fainted, and hurriedly supported her. Yu Quan also called the doctor in immediately, and he had already prepared that his mother would be too emotional.

When Ouyang Qingqing woke up and saw Daiyu crying beside the bed, she immediately felt that it was all her fault.If she wasn't arrogant enough to think that the task was easy, she wouldn't have failed to realize the fate of this thing.She thought that she could cure Lin Ruhai's illness, and she didn't think about the complicated court.

"Daiyu, my poor Daiyu." Ouyang Qingqing felt too much guilt towards Daiyu, how could Daiyu be happy after losing her parents like this?

It's because I think too much.
