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

Since Li Wan came to congratulate him, he naturally brought a lot of things with him.One of them was prepared by herself.

She called Yindie behind her to take the box over, pushed it in front of Mo Yun, raised her head slightly towards her, and said, "Sister, open it and have a look, do you like it?"

Mo Yun took the box, and it was not heavy to start with. When she opened it, she found a pair of moist and lively jade bracelets!The color is emerald green and rich, and the view is transparent. At first glance, the water head is excellent.Although people's love for jadeite is not as good as that of later generations, jadeite with such a good water head is a rare treasure.

Mo Yun closed the box and pushed Li Wan back, shook her head and said, "Sister-in-law, you're welcome, I can't take this thing."

Li Wan was surprised and quickly asked, "Your sister doesn't like it?"

Mo Yun said: "It's not that I don't like it, it's just that this thing is too expensive, and it's not easy for my sister-in-law to spend it."

Hearing this, Li Wan said "Hi" and smiled again: "My sister is thinking too much, how much did this thing cost? I also borrowed flowers to present Buddha, and someone brought it up for me. I think I came to see my sister, and there is nothing good around me, so I just brought it. If my sister likes it, just accept it."

Mo Yun rebuffed: "Since they were given to sister-in-law, sister-in-law should naturally keep them well. I don't lack these jewelry around me, so I can't let people's wishes go to waste, right?"

Only then did Li Wan put away the box, and said: "I'm thinking about it." He took the box and exchanged it with Yindie behind him, and then handed it to Mo Yun: "Does my sister like this?"

Mo Yun raised her eyes and glanced at Li Wan, seeing the smile on Li Wan's face became more sincere, so she raised her hand and reopened the box.

There are not many things in the box this time, just a few squares of handkerchiefs, and it seems that there is something embroidered on the handkerchiefs, but it is a little crooked, so that people can't see clearly.

Mo Yun tilted her head to look at Li Wan, and asked, "Sister-in-law, what is this gift?"

Li Wan smiled and said: "Because of the few books my sister gave me earlier, Lang Ge'er has improved a lot in her homework. I thought that Lang Ge'er would always talk to my sister when he improved My sister failed her hard work, so Lan Er wrote two pictures, and I embroidered them on the handkerchief. I don’t know if my sister likes it or not?"

Mo Yun closed the lid, took the box over, and said with a smile, "I really like this gift!"

Li Wan was also happy to see that Mo Yun liked her, but remembering the fluctuating hearts in the Rongguo Mansion, she restrained her smile a little and said, "It's just my sister, and I still haven't changed after seeing me now."

Mo Yun couldn't help being curious: "Sister-in-law, what's the matter? How long have I been away, and I have so many sighs?"

Li Wan smiled wryly and said: "I can only say this to my sister. If I say it to others, maybe they will point my nose and scold me. I didn't care about the house before, although I didn't As for worrying about eating and drinking, I never think of any good things. Sometimes Lang Geer wants to eat some snacks, but I have to spend money to get them, and I can't help but end up with a lot of complaints. Since I took care of the house, this People's hearts have also changed, not to mention that the food and drinks on weekdays are much better than before, but there are many more people who come to me with things to ask me to do things."

As he said that, Li Wan pointed to the box in Yindie's hand with a wry smile, and continued: "Do you think this thing is valuable? It's just one of the filial offerings. There are many more precious things than this, and it's not I know where these people come from! It’s not good if I don’t accept it, and it’s not good if I accept less. In the end, I can only accept it all. Not only those women who serve as servants, but also those who are masters They flatter me more than before. Do you see how many times Tanchun took the initiative to talk to me before? Recently, I run there every day. And my wife, seeing me now is much more pleasant, and often asks about Lan It's about my son." At the end, she sighed, and said, "It's just the master who underestimates and exalts the high.",

Mo Yun also knew that she was uncomfortable with the sudden change in her status. The big Jia family didn't even have anyone to talk to, so she could only go to her to complain.It's just that she doesn't agree with the matter of receiving gifts, but it's his own decision after all, and it's not good for her to intervene.What's more, even if she said it, whether Li Wan would listen was still another matter, but the gifts received before could not be returned.

Seeing that Li Wan seemed to be working really hard, she could only offer a few words of persuasion and a few more reminders before giving up.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room didn't seem to be very good, Mo Yun mentioned something else to ease it up, so he asked, "How is grandma recently?"

Li Wan's heart poured out a lot of bitterness. Hearing Mo Yun's question at this moment, he cheered up and said, "The old ancestor has been ill recently."

"Grandmother is sick? How did you get sick? But it's important? Have you taken any medicine?" Mo Yun couldn't help being surprised when she heard that Jia's mother was sick, and asked hastily.

Li Wan forced a smile, and said: "The old ancestor is in good health, but he was irritated by the old man, so he has some heart palpitations. He has already invited the imperial doctor to take medicine."

Hearing that Mother Jia was still fine, Mo Yun was relieved a little, but she frowned slightly when she heard that Mother Jia was angry with Jia, and said, "That's all right, uncle, grandma, what are you doing? "

Recalling what happened that night, Li Wan sighed deeply again, and said a little tiredly: "I shouldn't have told others about this, but my sister is also considered my own family, so it's not a family scandal. I think so. My sister also heard about it before, and our family also had a split. It was not for anything else, but because of the official money owed by the old man. I don’t know where the old man got the news, so the trouble went to the old ancestor. It is said that the two brothers naturally have to separate the family, and the arrears are divided equally, which does not make the ancestors angry."

"Then what happened next?" Mo Yun really wanted to know the ending.

"How can there be any later? At most, the debt will be divided equally, but when the family is divided in the future, the elder will only get half of the family property." Thinking of the 40 debt that Lan Er will have on her head in the future, Li Wan is overwhelmed. She felt a headache, which was why she still accepted so much despite knowing that this gift could not be accepted.

Baoyu is favored by Jia Mu, so she will get a lot of things in the future. What does her Lan'er have?She can only rely on saving more things when she is able now.

Only then did Mo Yun understand why so many things happened to the well-behaved Jia family.

Li Wan told her about the Jia family's affairs, and then added a sentence: "I don't know if my sister's family owes any official money. If so, I should pay it back earlier. But what I can think of, Uncle Lin Naturally, I have already thought of it, but I am talking too much."

Mo Yun said: "Sister-in-law is concerned, how can you say that you are talking too much? Thank you sister-in-law for reminding me, I will talk to my father when he comes back later."

Seeing that Mo Yun received her kindness, Li Wan felt a lot more relieved, and seeing that it was getting late, he bid farewell to Mo Yun.

Mo Yun also wanted to ask her to have dinner before leaving, but she refused because she said she was busy with work. Seeing this, she didn't hold back much, and sent Li Wan out of the Hanging Flower Arch in person.

After a few more days, it finally came to the day of re-election.Mo Yun got some news from Li Wan before, but she wasn't flustered at this time, so she had to tidy herself up, and made a carriage to go to the palace.

In the past few days, she has sent a lot of letters to the few friends she knew before, but she found out that Ling Man is actually the Queen's niece.Although she was surprised, she still had the same attitude towards Ling Man as before, which also made other people get closer to her.

Naturally, she also learned the real purpose of this general election from Ling Man.Although I was relieved that I didn't have to enter the palace, I just thought that I might marry someone I don't know in the future, and I felt a little more uneasy.

Mo Yun chose a sky blue dress today, which added a bit of elegance and beauty to her.

This time it was no longer held in the Royal Garden during the primary election, but changed to the Queen's Kunning Palace.

It was still the same as last time, the empress sat in the main seat, and the imperial concubine took the second seat, but this time, even these beautiful girls got the seats.This time, the test is about the embroidered brocade of the beautiful women.

This brocade embroidery is not difficult to say, it's just a matter of embroidering a pattern in an hour.

However, there are many considerations.

If you want to embroider a pattern within an hour, hand work is naturally indispensable.But at the same time, it is also necessary to be able to quickly choose the pattern to be embroidered, the required colored thread, the size of the embroidery picture, and the carefulness of the show girls.This is not only a test for Xiu Nu's embroidery skills, but also a test of Xiu Nu's psychological quality.

Embroidery brocade was still a very embarrassing thing for Mo Yun, after all, her embroidery skills were not very good.Fortunately, Nanny Zhang specially forced her to learn embroidery for a long time because of her embroidery work, so it was much easier for her now.

Seeing that everyone else had already started for a while, she slowly settled down on the pattern, picked the thread again, and then started to do it.

She knew that she was not good at embroidering complicated things, so this time she only picked a few green bamboos and matched them with a clump of orchid grass.The composition is also clear, the color matching is simple, and the meaning is good.

Time always flies when you are immersed in the things in your hands.Mo Yun only felt that she had just dropped the last needle when the father-in-law above said it was time.

When the maid on one side put away the embroidery pattern, Mo Yun felt that her energy was much shorter.

The rest of the time will naturally be spent asking questions from above and answering from below.There are many other women who take the initiative to speak up, some answer well, and some answer poorly.At the same time, there are also many people like Mo Yun who just sit on the chair, when she is called to answer, she answers seriously, and when she is not called, she looks at others with a smile on her face.

It's just... I don't know if she is too sensitive,
