[Red Mansion] Third Sister You's New Life in the Red Mansion

Shi Xiangyun stood up vigilantly, leaned against the door and the window to listen, and then sat back beside Xiuying, and said in a low voice: "Speaking of it, we are all from outside, and we want to talk about private matters in these two houses. For secrets, one has to beware that walls have ears. The ancestors were not allowed to mention this matter—I heard that Father Jing was also a romantic and handsome person when he was young. The position can be compared. At that time, it was said that this respectful father had a great future! He was married to a lady from the Zhen Guogong family. He was said to be well-matched, and the beauty of a man and a woman were not exaggerated. They were very affectionate; but Woolen cloth,"

Shi Xiangyun carefully looked around again, and then said, "This old man Jing has been married to a young lady from the Zhenguo family for many years, and he doesn't even have a concubine. Even the dowry girl was sent away by Father Jing himself That wife only gave birth to one son, Uncle Zhen, and when he grew up, seeing that he was not capable of writing, the old lady over there became anxious, and immediately forced Jing Lao to marry a concubine and have a second life. How many times I broke up, I respected my father but I just didn't follow; later the old man became angry and sick, the wife over there had no choice but to think of a way to conceive this little one regardless of her age, she was sister Xichun, unfortunately when she was born, There was an avalanche of blood, and people just disappeared."

Shi Xiangyun sighed in a rare way, "Under the great grief of Father Jing, he actually entered the Buddhist sect just now, and he didn't even ask about worldly affairs. He didn't even look at these four girls, and only said that she was hard-fated and killed her." Mother; then there is Brother Rong's mother, who is also the daughter of the concubine of the waiting family; Uncle Zhen is not a loving person, he is full of concubines and girls, and he has caused a lot of romantic debts outside; When the wife over there had a difficult delivery, Brother Rong's mother was pregnant, but she still had to wait on her inside and outside; when the wife died in a difficult delivery, Father Jing was furious, not only the people in the delivery room, but even the daughter-in-law was punished to the family temple Kneeling for a few days and nights, the child fell out after coming out, and he died of an illness. Brother Rong was seven or eight years old at the time, how could he not remember? I am afraid that he also hated the fourth girl in his heart Woolen cloth!"

As she said that, she leaned into Chu Ying's ear again, "In that year, the old master of the Dongfu also went. This is good. Three masters died in one year. Which family has such a tragedy? Everyone said The fourth girl has a hard life, and everyone looks at her coldly! The old lady saw her pitiful, so she hugged her and raised her. She is here with her brothers and sisters, and they are all affectionate, so she will not go back there! Da Zhen After the sister-in-law got married, why didn't she come to pick her up? She doesn't want to go back, and no one else can do it!"

"So that's how it is!" Chu Ying suddenly realized, "There are not many people in the Dongfu, and it is true that I respect my father to take the first responsibility, but why is this brother-in-law only Brother Rong? He is full of concubines and maids, my eldest sister. It's soft again, why didn't Brother Rong have any more sons and daughters after that?"

"How do I know that?" Xiang Yun gave Chu Ying a twist, "Arguing with our girls, we shouldn't talk about this, and don't mention it in the future; when you go to the East Mansion, you will know how many embarrassing things there are. , I can’t even say it! Anyway, you will know it later, so I won’t mention it. Let’s go to bed. Sister Bao asked me to go to her place early tomorrow morning. I heard that her brother came back from Huqiu Merchant and brought many children. It’s something! She asked me to pick it first!” After saying that, she fell asleep triumphantly.

Early the next morning, while Xiuying was still asleep, Shi Xiangyun came back from Lixiangyuan with a bag full of various gadgets. What Xiuying didn't expect was that Baochai would give her an extra gift when she heard that there was a guest in her room. A gift was given, a set of twelve-color gold-plated flow-patterned bookmarks, which were extremely exquisite; Xiu Ying hadn't seen Sister Bao since she came here, and she didn't expect her to be so thoughtful.Shi Xiangyun lined up these gadgets one by one in front of her eyes again, and the two of them played all morning, and didn't even bother to eat breakfast; when it was almost time, they saw Bao and Dai coming, and Lin Daiyu laughed as soon as she entered the door , "I was wondering if you have something interesting to hide, sure enough! I don't even eat breakfast, so I want to see, what is so rare?"

Shi Xiangyun snorted, wrapped all the gadgets in front of him in his arms, wrinkled his little nose and looked at her, "What? Although Sister Bao gave me a bag, what I gave you is a whole box! What kind of You didn't, you came to tease me now, are you looking at my inability to be sexual? I'm going to tell Sister Bao, whatever you have, I want to have!"

Baoyu smiled and said, "Okay, okay, these are brought back from Gusu by Big Cousin Xue, after all, it is Sister Lin's hometown, so I brought some more for her to comfort her homesickness, What is there to argue about?"

Shi Xiangyun sneered and said, "What am I fighting for? Anyway, you are helping her to speak, but you are also rushing here at this moment, and I am not allowed to say a word or two!"

Seeing the embarrassment of the situation, Xiu Ying stepped forward and asked with a smile, "Does sister Lin live in Yangzhou City? Coincidentally, my old uncle's family is also in Yangzhou City. I only visited last year; I don't blame sister Lin for missing her. Yangzhou is such a wonderful place with beautiful scenery, I went home and thought about it from time to time!"

Lin Daiyu was feeling uncomfortable, and she was grateful to see Xiuying smooth things over, so she hurried over to tell her about the many cultures and customs in Yangzhou City, anecdotes and anecdotes; Yun, "Why are you so angry? Bianbao's sister is usually close to me. You have some, but I don't have any. I didn't say anything!"

When Shi Xiangyun heard what he said, he simply swept these little gadgets into his pocket with a bang, "I'm angry, what can I be angry with? I was here with my third sister, not you guys. Did you come here and talk first? Why are you talking about me now?"

Xiuying had no choice but to reassure her, "Okay, I didn't say anything at first, Sister Lin was just joking with you! I just remembered a story last night, which is incompatible with today's situation, why don't I tell you listen?"

As soon as they heard that Xuying was going to tell a story, they immediately surrounded her and said, "Speak quickly! The story told by the third sister is the best, and most female storytellers can't compare to it! It's what you said last time." We haven't finished talking about that stone monkey, we want to hear that!"

So Xiuying started to talk, and just after saying a few words, Cuilu said at the door: "Miss You San, Grandma Zhen is looking for you! I heard that you and the girl didn't have breakfast, and the ancestor asked you two to come together. Go to her place for dinner, Grandma Zhen is also waiting there."

Shi Xiangyun yelled, "It's all for eating, don't worry about them, third sister, finish the story first, let's go there later."

So Ying stood up with a smile, "Forget it, let's go there first; needless to say, the old lady, after all, my eldest sister is so much older than us, and I usually respect her very much; since people come to look for it, let's It was in the past, so it's not good to make them wait for a long time." She also expressed her attitude, if other people were disrespectful to Youshi, she would be unhappy.

After all, she has an adult soul in her heart, so she speaks with a kind of calmness and determination. After hearing this, several people are silent in their hearts, as if they have accepted her likes and dislikes subconsciously, and they are all thinking about it in their hearts. Have some respect for Yushi.

Here, Youshi is serving Jia Mu for lunch. Because she has to take a nap, Jia Mu eats very lightly, but a bowl of millet porridge, a few side dishes, and the rest of the more delicate dishes are appreciated.Sitting on a small stool, You Shi was also given a small bowl of Bijaponica rice porridge and some dessert fruits, so he ate some by the way.Seeing that she had finished her meal, Jia's mother seemed to think of something, so she asked, "Did your two step-sisters ever betrothed to others?"

Mrs. You didn't understand why Jia's mother suddenly asked about this matter. After thinking about it, she said truthfully: "I heard that the second younger sister was promised by others since she was a child, but now that family has fallen, and the young master is not up to date, just listen to my mother's opinion." I'm going to procrastinate like this; when my second sister is older, I'll find another home; I've also persuaded my old lady to quit the engagement. At that time, I am afraid that people will sue the officials! Even if you want money, you can give me any amount, after all, the family is poor now, and it will not cost much if you think about it. The younger one has not been decided yet."

Jia's mother originally wanted to ask Xuanying, but when she heard the second sister's messy things, she felt a little dissatisfied, "Then it depends on your old lady's reputation; of course, as a parent, love It's natural for a woman to be eager, and it's not easy for others to comment on it; it's just that if you retire like this, you will inevitably be criticized by others, and you will have a bad reputation in the end; It’s a better excuse, but it’s only appropriate if the man’s family has nothing to say.”

You Shi hurriedly bowed his head in response, "What the old ancestor said is very true, and I usually persuade the old lady like this; but the old lady seems to be very disapproving, and I am not her biological child, so it is hard to say too much after all. What about the second sister? There is nothing to do, and I just obey my old lady blindly; it's because of my third sister, when my old lady sees her, she beats and scolds her, because she refuses to obey; but I don't know why, but I like me more These three younger sisters, I am not boasting, this kind of knowledge is courageous, even the girls in our mansion are not as good as them."

Mother Jia hummed, and said quite agreeingly, "This is not an exaggeration; I have lived to such an old age, and I have met many smart girls, but it is this insight into the world, which is human, and the youth is calm. It is really rare to have kindness in alienation, and hardness in gentleness; as for Bao girl, everyone said that she is reasonable and considerate, but from my cold eyes, she is not as good as her sexuality. She can do things, Maybe Bao girl can do it. The reason I asked this is to bring her into the mansion, no matter which one is direct or collateral, but she is eager to learn and progress, and her character and appearance are passable. You look at it, your sisters also have a companion."

When Mrs. You heard this, she couldn't help being overjoyed. The second sister and Mrs. You had been in the mansion for so long, and the old ancestor didn't even ask her a question; when the third sister came, the old lady immediately looked at her differently. Isn't this also her dignity?But she was a little hesitant, because she couldn't figure out what the old lady was thinking.It's no doubt that the old lady appreciates Third Sister, but it's not necessarily true that she values ​​her, otherwise she will find out for herself.Thinking of this, Youshi tentatively asked: "If Yiyi is my sister, then the ones from this younger generation are not suitable; it's just that the few ones I see are suitable, but they are all from this younger generation. For example, Qiang'er in our house, Yun'er who lives in the porch over there, and Jun'er in the old garden are all of the same age and decent appearance; What about it!"

When Jia's mother heard this, she also thought about it, and then she heard someone laughing at the door, "Hey, what are you looking for from a generation of jade? Could it be that my sister-in-law is here to propose a marriage for Brother Baoyu?" Seeing the curtain outside the door, Wang Xifeng walked forward with a smile Come in, I don’t know how long I’ve been listening outside.

Youshi was surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly stood up.She thought about it a lot, and didn't dare to think about her ancestor's precious lump, not to mention that everyone in the house knew that this precious jade was paired with Daiyu, and both were Jia Mu's darlings, which was almost guaranteed; Even the concubine and Bao girl live in the mansion, even Mrs. Wang is interested, and the old lady never wants to let go.

Thinking of this, You Shi immediately smiled and said to Wang Xifeng, "I don't have to be obedient, just listen to half of it; just now the ancestor mentioned my third sister and said that he wanted to talk to her about a marriage in the mansion. Brother Baoyu involved? Even if you want to make a joke, please choose someone to talk about, so as not to burden me and make it difficult to behave in front of the ancestors!"

Sister Feng was not angry when she touched a soft nail, but said to Youshi with a smile: "Sister-in-law, if you want to talk about the younger generation, I have a ready-made person in my heart. You are rich and serious, and you are from our generation, so I think it is a perfect match for your third sister!"

Youshi wondered, and couldn't help saying: "Which one did you mention, why can't I think of it again?"

Sister Feng smiled again, her red phoenix eyes glistened, and her red lips parted slightly, "Sister-in-law, did you forget? That's your nephew from Ningfu, that is the only grandson of Uncle Sanfang, Jia Rui! He His parents left early, and only his grandfather was in charge. Xiang Rili is extremely strict in his studies; in terms of talent, he is no worse than his uncles and nephews. If your third younger sister marries, there will be no mother-in-law The rule is, even if there are grandparents around, it's too late for the old man to love her! This is sister-in-law's younger sister, if it's someone else, I won't have to worry about it!"

Only then did You Shi recall, "Oh, you're talking about him! This kid is pretty good in appearance, but he seems to be much older than the third younger sister? Uncle and grandpa have always been very strict, even our meeting Fang In the garden, people rarely come here, so why do you recognize him?"

Sister Feng sneered in her heart, but she only said casually on her face: "Where, it was just to celebrate Dad's birthday last year. Didn't we go to your garden? Take the initiative to say hello to me; it is from a lifetime, I don’t think he is so polite, I remember him; of course, I just said this, it’s just a white idea; it’s not that I’m ready , sister-in-law just go and inquire about it."

After hearing this, You Shi was a little puzzled, "I've heard of this brother; it's just that he hasn't been in good health for the past six months, and he has been sick every now and then. He is young, but his health is not very good. ?”

Sister Feng laughed and said: "It's not that you don't know, the third uncle held him tight, and he was spoiled since he was a child, and sometimes he pretended to have a headache; even Qiang'er Rong'er and the others in your house also have this kind of behavior." Those who refuse to go to the supervisor every now and then, are the same."

Only then did Youshi let out a sigh, "Since you have said so, it's no big deal; I'll discuss it with my old lady after I go back, and if she agrees, I'll come back to my old lady again."

In the same generation, Jia's mother knew Jia Dairu, knowing that he had only such a single grandson left, and she didn't know if she was too spoiled, so she said to You, "That's what I said, but don't be too hasty. Your old lady agrees. Now, I have to ask your third sister what she means first. I see that she has her own ideas, so don’t get married and become resentful instead. Don’t talk about this matter, since your third sister is still young anyway. If Narui is really promising in his studies and can get a reputation, wouldn't it be better to talk about it when the time comes?"
