Chapter 16 Dormancy

On the small road leading to the Xiaoxiang Hall, two beautiful women in crane cloaks and hoods walked up. They followed the sound. They were Xichun, the fourth girl of the Jia family, and Miaoyu, a young nun.

Xichun, who was painting in the house, occasionally thought of the red plums in front of Miaoyu's nunnery. On a whim, she took her maid into the painting to look for plums in the snow. Just as she walked to the Fengyao Bridge, she happened to meet Miaoyu who came to find her to play chess.The two met, looked at each other and smiled, and were about to go back to the nunnery together when they suddenly heard the shocking sound of a piano from the Xiaoxiang Hall.

Xichun and Miaoyu coincidentally stood in the wind and snow, listening intently to the melodious and exciting piano sound of Xiaoxiang Pavilion, the more they listened, the more moved they became.

"Master Miao, listen, Sister Lin's piano sound is very different from before."

Miaoyu held her breath, listened carefully, and waved her hands to signal Xichun to keep quiet.

After listening to the song, Miao Yufang smiled and said, "Miss Lin will not be staying in your residence for too long."

Xichun doubtfully said: "Master's words are wrong! Sister Lin has no relatives in her hometown, and we are her only relatives. She doesn't live in our house. Where can she go? The old lady only has her as a direct granddaughter, and she is the only relative in her family. How can you be willing to let sister Lin leave here?"

Miaoyu smiled meaningfully: "If Miss Lin wants to leave, your residence cannot stay."

"How do you say that?" Seeing her profound words and mysterious expression, Xichun became more and more puzzled, and asked after Miaoyu.

Miaoyu sneered, stretched out a jade-white index finger, pointed to the sky, then pointed to the ground, then looked at Xichun with pity, remained silent, shook her head and left.

Xichun stared blankly at this mysterious and unpredictable Miaoyu who was drifting away, knowing that this talented and wonderful little nun knew a lot about mysteries.

The maid entered the painting and saw Xichun stared blankly for a long time, then asked softly: "Girl, shall we still go?"

"No, to the old lady's."

Xichun helped Ruhua to Jiamu's room, the room was very warm.

Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Sister Feng and Baochai, including Youshi Li Wan were all there. I don't know what happy things everyone said, but they laughed non-stop.Tanchun was there too, just sitting in silence with a melancholy smile on his face.

Sitting on the kang, leaning against the brocade quilt, and holding reading glasses, Jia's mother was flushed with a smile on her face.Seeing Xichun coming, she beckoned to her and said, "Fourth girl, come quickly, look at your two sisters-in-law and aunt, you are like a greedy cat, you can't stop talking about eating meat, even dreaming about eating meat. Those who don't know I thought our family was so poor that we couldn’t open the pot, and couldn’t even afford a piece of venison.”

Xichun went to Jiamu's side and sat down next to her.Mother Jia took Xichun's little hand and asked, "Where did you come from? Your little hand is cold."

The young Xichun said truthfully: "I originally wanted to play chess with Miaoyu. Later, when I heard Sister Lin's piano sound, I wanted to go to Xiaoxiang Pavilion to see Sister Lin together. I walked to the gate of Xiaoxiang Pavilion and listened to Sister Lin playing. The sound of the piano was very different from the past. Miaoyu listened for a while, but she didn’t want to go in to see Sister Lin. She also said that Sister Lin was about to leave our house, and the old lady couldn’t keep her. I couldn’t help asking Miaoyu why , She pointed at the sky, said nothing, turned her head and left."

There was no sound in the room, a complete silence.

Xichun was at a loss, thinking they didn't believe it, she shook Jia Mu's arm and said, "Really, if you don't believe it, you can ask Miaoyu. I don't understand how she can talk nonsense like this when she is a monk."
