Love in the Red Chamber is full of Xiaoxiang

The jade rabbit rises in the east, the breeze is bright and the moon is bright.

Tubi Villa has already been cleaned up.All kinds of lamps and lanterns of horns, glass, gauze, or silk have been hung around.The two wives of King Xing supported Jia's mother, and Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng led the way.The crowd came to Tubi Mountain Villa in a mighty crowd.

Baochai, Li Wan and others have already been waiting here.

When Jiamu sat down, she saw a Kesi screen in the middle, so she said to the mandarin duck, "Let someone remove the screen. It's rare for a family to be reunited. Everyone sits around and has a lively meal. good."

Immediately, a mother-in-law removed the screen, and only two large round tables were set up on the spot.When Jia Mu saw that Sister Feng was not here, she hurriedly asked Mrs. Xing: "Why don't you let Feng girl come over? Although she is no longer on duty, she is still my grandson's wife." Immediately ordered Hu Po to invite her.

At the top table, Jiamu, Daiyu, Tanchun and Xichun.When Jia Mu didn't see Baoyu, she hurriedly asked, "Why hasn't Baoyu come?"

Baochai replied, "I'll come as soon as I say I'll change clothes. I think it will come soon."

Jia Mu said: "It's dark after all, let a little girl pick it up with a lantern. Or you can't see where you fell, and it's not good to touch anything."

Seeing that there were still many seats vacant, Jia Mu asked Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng to come and sit around.Jia Huan and Jia Lan also came together.Only Baoyu and Sister Feng are missing.

After waiting for half a day, Amber finally brought Sister Feng here.

When Jia's mother met, she said, "We know that in the past, Feng girl said she was filial to me, but it was all fake. Today, when your sister Lin came back, she also hid herself from seeing people."

Sister Feng has a hard time to say, since she returned to Mrs. Xing's side, her life has never been so comfortable.Daiyu had already got up, and Sister Feng stepped forward, took Daiyu's hand and said with a smile, "Sister Lin, don't blame me. I really didn't know that Sister Lin was back, but she was negligent. Seeing that I don't care about the family, people become confused. My sister finally made it difficult." I must stay for a few more days when I come back, the old lady misses you day and night."

Jia Mu took advantage of the situation and said, "Then I will punish you to be the host tomorrow, and invite you sister Lin and these sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law."

Sister Feng had no choice but to agree: "Since the old lady said this, there is no reason for me to refuse. Please, everyone. Not only sister Lin, but also sisters-in-law and two sister-in-laws. There are also old ladies and wives." .”

Jia Mu smiled and said, "Okay, go and sit with your mother-in-law."

Sister Feng went to the next table.If it was changed to before, it must be said with a sharp mouth, which made Jia Mu like it.It's just that she's not the grandma in charge today, so her life feels aggrieved.The father-in-law and mother-in-law are also very cautious here.Everyone just followed Jiamu's eyes and acted.

In the bitter anticipation of Jia Mu and others, Baoyu finally appeared.Daiyu raised her head slightly, and saw a young gentleman walking towards the dimly lit place, wearing an autumn-colored fox armpit brocade arrow sleeve, tied with five-color butterfly silk ribbons, and wearing a red gold crown on his head.His figure and appearance have not changed much, but his face seems to have lost some weight.

Baoyu also saw Sister Lin sitting next to Jia Mu early on. It had been a long time since she had seen her, and it seemed like a world away.I also saw her wearing a light pink dress, dressed like the person who was last month.It's hard to calm down in my heart.When you get to the front, greet Jia Mu first, and then greet Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng and others.

At the end, Fang greeted Daiyu, and Daiyu got up to answer.The two never even looked at each other.

Jia Mu said: "Okay, the people are finally complete."

Here comes the food and wine first.

Because Baoyu's parents are here, he dare not speak freely, and when Daiyu goes back to the house, the thoughts he has kept are rekindled, but now he can't say anything or do anything.But barely hold on.

Just heard Jia Zhengdao: "A few days ago, I heard people say that the Zhen family and his son in Jiangnan are going to Beijing, and Baoyu and Huan'er are not young anymore. And Lan'er, you should also prepare. This year is over, and next year will not matter. You have to enter the arena. Be more diligent.”

The three quickly agreed.

Jia She said with a smile: "It is not necessary for people like us to take the imperial examination route, but spend some money and submit a post to give an alternate vacancy."

Jia Zheng said sternly: "That's what I said. After all, my family is not as good as before. Now that I have been demoted, the brothers still need to work hard on their own. They have been rich for generations thanks to the shadow of their ancestors. Make something famous."

Baoyu has always hated this kind of thing in the officialdom the most. Hearing what his father said was harsh, but sitting there awkwardly was not right or left.

Jia's mother talked about the East Mansion again, and said, "I seem to have heard that Brother Zhen was sent to participate. What's the reason? Does it matter? Only his daughter-in-law will send a message for the festival. But I can't see it either."

Jia Amnesty said: "I don't know what it is about the Feng family's affairs. I don't know the details. Didn't they get suppressed later?"

Mother Jia didn't ask any more.I thought to myself that it was hard to reach the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is rare for a family to be complete, so it must be more lively.Here the banquet is gone, and fruit and cakes are served again.Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng sat with them for a while, talked for a while and then went back.

Only the two wives of King Xing were still in front of Jia Mu. Sister Feng sat for a while and said that she was not well, so she also left.Seeing that Sister Feng had lost her intelligence and shrewdness, Mother Jia thought it must be because Mrs. Xing was often left-handed.Make a good man look bad.

When Jia Mu looked back, she saw that Baochai and Li Wan were there, but Daiyu left at some point.Jia Mu thought it must be because of Baoyu's relationship here, but she didn't want to go into it.

Jia Mu and Baoyu said: "Baoyu, don't worry about what your father said just now. Anyway, I will stand in your way for you. Let's see who dares to say anything."

Mrs. Wang said: "The old lady said this to protect Baoyu. It's just that he's grown up now, so he's not the same as when he was a child. Now the daughter-in-law has married again and has a house of her own. The daughter-in-law will always have to rely on him in the future. Where can I I can continue to dawdle in it."

Mother Jia frowned slightly after hearing this, and couldn't say much.

Baoyu only felt disheartened, and he was thinking of Daiyu again.He said that he drank some wine and his head was a little heavy, so he wanted to go back to rest.

Seeing him like this, Jia Mu had to let him go.

Daiyu stood outside the concave crystal pavilion, watching the rippling light waves.A jade plate in the sky and a full moon in the water are echoing each other. Thinking of the Mid-Autumn Festival night a few years ago, she and Xiangyun had a couplet with the moon again.Daiyu leaned on the railing with one hand, and counted slowly from this end until she reached No. 13.At this time, Daiyu heard a "sob" and she didn't know what it was. She was always timid, but she was shocked into a cold sweat.I want to go back.

After walking a few steps, Daiyu seemed to see someone standing there with a lantern in his hand, because the unknown voice just now made her a little scared, so she didn't dare to go forward to take a closer look, so she just asked, "Who is it?" ?”

"Sister Lin! It's me!"

Daiyufang recognized Baoyu's voice, and she didn't dare to go forward. She leaned against the railing and turned her head.Seeing the blue waves rippling in the water, it added a touch of coolness in the vast moonlight.Daiyufang felt a little cold, and turned to leave, but Baoyu called her: "Sister Lin, please wait a moment."

Daiyu stopped and said without turning her head: "There is nothing to say, it's getting late. I'm going back."

Baoyu seemed a little anxious, and shouted without hesitation: "Sister Lin, listen to me, it's not because I've betrayed my heart. There's really nothing I can do, so I'm forced to..."

Daiyu hurriedly turned her head and said coldly: "Brother Bao is so good, it doesn't make sense, and it's useless to talk about it."

Baoyu said: "I thought I would never see Sister Lin again, and I had to think about the old days many times every day. I never thought that my thoughts touched the heavens and made my wish come true. Sister Lin, you know what's on my mind."

Daiyu turned around and interrupted him hastily, shaking her head and said: "You needn't say it, now that you have Sister Bao, what are you talking about, and where will you put Sister Bao?"

Daiyu's words blocked Baoyu's mouth, and now his thoughts have been lost, and he will never find them again. He thought that one day he would meet and have a lot of things to say to her, but he didn't expect to see her again. , can't say anything.

Baoyu pointed to the glass hydrangea lamp in his hand and said to Daiyu: "This lamp is still the one you gave me back then, and I have been keeping it carefully."

Daiyu glanced at it, she seemed to have forgotten about it.Daiyu just felt sad when she saw her like this today, but when she came to her, she just felt uncomfortable in her heart and her eyes were astringent.But no tears came out.Daiyu looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and a cool breeze blew up, coughing twice.Qing knows that this place is not a place to stay, if someone sees it, they will think that they intend to have a private meeting here, so Bi Daiyu will withdraw and leave.

When Baoyu saw Daiyu leave, he didn't call her to stop again, so he had to go back angrily.

Xiren and Yinger were talking there, and finally saw him come back.But Xiren came and pulled Baoyu aside, and asked her carefully: "What's wrong with Second Grandma? She didn't say a word when she came back?"

Baoyu didn't take it seriously at first, but said, "Don't worry about her, it will be fine tomorrow."

The attacker was secretly worried.He also smelled alcohol on Baoyu, so he asked the little girl to make a bowl of hangover soup.Here Musk Moon came to ask how to sleep at night.

Baoyu said lazily: "How to sleep in the past, how to sleep tonight."

Musk Moon went to make the bed.

Xiren lifted the curtain and went to the back room, but saw Baochai sitting there in a daze.

Xiren smiled apologetically and said, "Second Mistress is tired too, it's time to rest."

Baochai recalled the two people she saw when she passed by the Aujing Pavilion just now, and felt a sudden loss in her heart.He thought to himself that he would never forget her after all, since he entered this door, how often had he been kind to himself.I always felt that my chest was uncomfortable, but now that the attacker came to ask, Baochai looked up and smiled slightly: "I'm fine. You go and serve him."

As he said that, he took off the hair accessories on his head, and looked at himself in the mirror in a daze.

Baochai lowered her head and saw the golden lock hanging around her neck. She didn't expect that a few words from the scarlet-headed monk would lock her up for the rest of her life.Baochai's face was indifferent, she accepted all this obediently, neither sad nor happy.

The same moonlit night made all three of them sleepless.One shed tears silently in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, the other sighed at the cold moon, and the other guarded the loneliness of youth alone with a brocade quilt.
