[Red Mansion] Chronicles of a Girl in the Lin Family

Because Jia's mother was very angry at Mrs. Wang last night, when Mo Yun got up early today, the clothes of the servants in Jia's mansion were changed into simple and elegant colors, and the hairpins on their heads were removable. I picked it, and if I couldn't pick it, I replaced it with a silver one.Seeing this, Mo Yun guessed what Mother Jia must have done, so she just smiled and didn't say much.

In the morning, I greeted Jia's mother, and then went to Mrs. Wang with the Sanchun people.But as soon as he entered Mrs. Wang's door, he saw Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng discussing something. It sounded like Wang Ziteng sent a letter asking them to invite Xue's family to Beijing.The families of the daughters all knew that it was better not to take care of other people's affairs, so they only listened to a few words and saw that Mrs. Wang was free, invited Ann and came to Li Wan's courtyard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Li Wan making shoes and socks. The flowers looked like they were made for Jia Lan.Jia Lan was seriously reading in the study in the small courtyard.

Seeing that the sisters had come, Li Wan hurriedly put down his work and went up to him, took Mo Yun's hand and said with a smile: "Why are the sisters here at this time? You didn't greet me in advance, it's the wrong way I was unprepared."

Mo Yun smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, what should I prepare? It's not that I didn't see Brother Lan yesterday, but I forgot to ask my sister-in-law to bring back the things I prepared for him, so I came here today to give it away and see my sister-in-law too. "

Yingchun and Xichun were just laughing, but Tanchun said: "I'm afraid my sister-in-law has some good things that I didn't have time to clean up, and I'm afraid it will be missed by some of us! Sisters, why don't you hurry into the room and take a good look, Sister-in-law is such a good thing, even if you get a little bit, you will earn money!"

Li Wan looked at Tanchun pretending to be dissatisfied, and said, "I asked you to say everything, but you just said, what do I have here that you don't have? If you can tell, I will let you take it." !"

Xichun laughed and said, "We don't have Brother Lan! Could it be that sister-in-law is willing to take Lan Ge back to us?"

After hearing this, Li Wan said with a serious face: "It's okay to give it to you, but you have to be responsible for our Lan Ge'er's food and clothing expenses. If I go to see it again, our Lang Geer has lost a little weight. It's also unreliable!"

After all, Xichun was still young, and seeing Li Wan's serious face, she really thought she was going to let her take Jia Lan back, so she waved her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, don't laugh at me, I can't even take care of myself. Can you come and take care of Brother Lang? Let the sisters come!"

Seeing that Xichun was so frightened by Li Wan, everyone laughed, only Yingchun pursed her lips, although she laughed but did not laugh out loud.Tan Chun couldn't straighten up his waist while holding the hand of the book attendant, he laughed and said intermittently: "You little girl...why are you so easy to deceive? Brother Lan is the heart and soul of my sister-in-law, how could she Let you take it back? My sister-in-law is not at ease!"

Seeing everyone laughing, and hearing what Tanchun said, Xichun finally came to her senses, her face flushed red, she hid behind Ruhua, and said angrily to Li Wan, "Sister-in-law is making fun of me again! , I will ignore you!"

Li Wan hurriedly begged for mercy: "It's all my sister-in-law's fault. You shouldn't make fun of us Xichun. Will your sister-in-law serve you tea as an apology? Xichun shouldn't just ignore your sister-in-law."

Hearing what Li Wan said, Xichun was also a little embarrassed, and said: "I don't need my sister-in-law to apologize to me, just invite us to have two cups of tea."

Li Wan heard this, and greeted her hurriedly: "Since Xichun said so, let's go into the room quickly, and I'll find good tea to treat you!" Then he told Suyun to go get her quickly The treasured good tea was poured out, and Yindie was asked to go to the small kitchen to order two pastries, and at the same time, she dragged the sisters into the room and got on the kang.

Seeing that everyone entered the room, Mo Yun took a box from Qingrui behind her, handed it to Li Wan and said, "I should have asked my sister-in-law to bring the things yesterday, but I didn't see Brother Lan, so it was picked up by me." I forgot, and please ask my sister-in-law not to mind."

Li Wan took the box from Mo Yun, knowing that Mo Yun also remembered their mother and son in his heart, he was already very grateful, so why would he care about such small things?So he said repeatedly: "I don't mind, I don't mind, but my sister spent the money."

Mo Yun smiled, and was about to say something, when Suyun and Yindie came up with their things, so they stopped talking and started to drink tea with the sisters.

Seeing that the sisters had already drank tea, Li Wan said to the maids: "Go down too, find a place to rest, and leave our sisters here to talk. It's okay to have a cup of tea and warm up." , just ask us to come when we call you.”

The maids in the room glanced at their masters, seeing that none of the masters disagreed, so they happily saluted and went down.

Yingchun picked up the tea and took a sip, only to feel that the mouth was full of fragrance. Although the taste was bitter, it was sweet and had a long aftertaste. She couldn't help but looked at Li Wan in surprise and said, "Sister-in-law, where did you pick this tea? How much water did you use?" What kind of water is it? So I can tell my sister to find some too.”

The rest of the people took a sip as well after listening to it, and kept the tea soup in their mouths for a good aftertaste before swallowing it. After drinking, they all looked at Li Wan with bright eyes.

Seeing that everyone likes it, Li Wan didn't hide his secrets, and said, "I don't know the name of this tea. It's just that my father brought it when I was last year. I heard that it was picked from Jiangnan. Give it to me. It’s only five or six taels, and there’s not much left now, and it’s all used to entertain everyone this time. The water used is ordinary, but it’s just ordinary mountain spring water.”

"It's actually like this..." Everyone couldn't hide their disappointment when they heard Li Wan say that the tea leaves were gone, and Yingchun sighed even more.

Tan Chun remembered something, looked at Mo Yun, and said, "This tea is from Jiangnan, and Sister Lin is from Huaiyang, so does Sister know what kind of tea it is?"

Hearing what Tanchun said, the eyes of all the sisters lit up, especially Yingchun, who looked at Mo Yun with burning eyes.

Mo Yun was taken aback by this look, but couldn't help but smiled bitterly: "If my sister was here, maybe I can say something. It's just that I'm just a peony chewer, and I can drink this It’s not easy to have good tea, but if I were to tell what kind of tea it is, it would be embarrassing for me.”

Hearing that Mo Yun didn't know, everyone was even more disappointed, but this matter cannot be forced after all, so they changed the subject and stopped talking.

Xichun just heard Mo Yun say that she has a younger sister, so she couldn't help asking: "What is Sister Lin's younger sister like?"

Seeing Xichun's question, Mo Yun became interested, and told everyone about Daiyu's happiness.

Speaking of Daiyu, Mo Yun has a lot to say: "My younger sister, whose nickname is Daiyu, is two years older than you and only a little younger than Yingchun. Although she is young, she is very beautiful. She is a rare intelligent woman in the world. She has been a beauty since she was a child, and now she has grown up and is even more beautiful. She is different from me since she was a child. I can only memorize things by rote, but she does. A good poem, full of aura, which even Mr. Li admired. Not only that, but she is also kind to people..." For the next half hour, everyone listened to Mo Yun using all kinds of beautiful words and phrases To describe Daiyu, their teeth are sore.

Tanchun couldn't help but said: "Sister Lin's younger sister is so beautiful? My sister described it as a fairy in the sky."

But Mo Yun said: "How do you know that my sister is not the reincarnation of a fairy in the sky? What I'm talking about now is far less than one ten-thousandth of her real life."

Xichun is still young, hearing Mo Yun praise Daiyu so much, thinking that Mo Yun is already a woman like no other, if this Daiyu is better, what kind of woman is she?She couldn't help yearning for Daiyu, so she said to Mo Yun: "Then why didn't Sister Lin come this time? If she came, wouldn't it be a pleasure to play with us?"

Mo Yun slandered: "There is Jia Baoyu in the Rongguo Mansion, I don't even want Daiyu to come even if it is a golden nest or a silver nest." He just said softly: "The younger sister and younger brother at home have been seriously ill because of their mother. Yangzhou is a long way from the capital, so I really don't feel at ease, so I just asked them to rest at home."

After hearing this, Xichun hurriedly said, "Then when will that sister Lin come?"

Mo Yun smiled and said: "Don't worry, you will see each other one day." It's just that it doesn't matter when this day will come.

After hearing this, the rest of the people stopped thinking about seeing Daiyu immediately. They only thought that they would see Daiyu one day, and just waited patiently. Unfortunately, Chun was still thinking about Daiyu in his heart. Mo Yun pestered Mo Yun every day to talk to her about Daiyu. Although Mo Yun felt a little bit sorry for Chun Ri's clinging to her every day, seeing that Xi Chun was young and proud of having a sister like Daiyu, he was willing to do more than her. Talk about Daiyu, and talk about Daiyu before you regret it.

Several people played in Li Wan's courtyard for a while, and when they saw that it was getting late, they took their leave and went back.

After everyone left, Jia Lan came back to have some snacks with Li Wan, and then went to the study for a while to read.

Taking advantage of Jia Lan's presence, Li Wan opened the box given by Mo Yun, and saw that the contents were the same as Jia Baoyu's, with several copybooks and a copy of the Four Treasures of the Study, and a few extra copies. The annotations of the Four Books and Five Classics are all available to Jia Lan at this time, and Mo Yun must have added some because they were delivered late.Seeing that these things were prepared according to Jia Lan's needs, Li Wan's affection for Mo Yun grew a little more, and he warned Jia Lan: "You must remember all the people who treat you well. If you have the ability in the future, you must repay, don't be those ungrateful villains!"

Although Jia Lan is young, she has already seen through the world in this huge Rongguo Mansion.So he only nodded his head when he heard Li Wan's words, and vowed in his heart that he would study hard to earn a life for Li Wan, and to repay those who were kind to him in the future.Afterwards, he worked harder and unintentionally beat Jia Baoyu several times.Of course, this is an afterthought, so I won’t say much here.
