The Lin family has a female named Qingyun [Red Mansion]

The small house of the Zhang family fell into a dead silence, but the rain was about to come.All the people in the house held their voices and held their breath, wishing to hide themselves, even if there was very little noise in the kitchen.

Since Zhang Ming said that he would formally promote Chunliu to be an aunt, Zhao Yunshuang became quiet, without saying a word, staring at Zhang Ming for a long time before returning to the courtyard alone.She neither tried her best to obstruct her as before, nor went back to her natal family to ask for help to suppress her with power.When Zhang Ming saw her pale face for a moment, he couldn't help regretting it, and wanted to catch up with her and take back what he said, but he didn't move.

Zhang Ming grew up in Jiangnan since he was a child. Whether it is his former wife, sister-in-law, relatives, cousins, maids and maidservants, they are all gentle Jiangnan daughters. Look cute.He didn't expect to meet a woman like Zhao Yunshuang, she looked arrogant and beautiful on the surface, full of poetry and books, but when she got along with her, she became suspicious, irritable, jealous, and had a strong desire to control, but at the beginning they still had Live in harmony and love.He respected Zhao Yunshuang as a wife, and was even willing to be the same for the rest of his life. Even if he had no children for many years, he planned to adopt one from his elder brother's house, but...

After all, he couldn't stand Zhao Yunshuang's increasingly violent temperament.

At this time, Zhao Yunshuang's face was as heavy as water, and she sat in the room blankly, thinking about something in a daze.Although Nianmei and the others were dowries, they did not dare to disturb her at this time, for fear of being angered.

The next day, Zhang Ming went out to work.

When she was about to get into the carriage, she thought of Zhao Yunshuang's usual temperament and tricks, and finally told the people in the house: "Look at grandma, come and find me immediately if you have anything to do."

The people in the house naturally knew what it meant, so they responded quickly.

At this time Zhao Yunshuang spoke up: "Nianmei, keep an eye on that lowly servant girl, I want to know her every move."

"Yes." Nianmei finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her talking, and said, "Grandma, I have been keeping an eye on it secretly, the third master did not send a letter to Jinling. The third master's words may have been said in a moment of annoyance, maybe It's Chunliu..."

"Okay!" Zhao Yunshuang was already unwilling to listen to anything.

Nianmei didn't dare to say any more.

A few days passed, and there was no movement at home. Zhang Ming saw that Zhao Yunshuang was always indifferent. Although it was strange, he might not have heaved a sigh of relief.If something happened to Chunliu, he really didn't know how to explain it to his mother, besides, he was 29 years old this year, but his knees were still desolate, if Zhao Yunshuang couldn't have a baby, even having a concubine would be enough to comfort him.

One day, Nianmei came to report: "Grandma is really good at predicting things. That Chunliu just went out and said she was going to buy needlework, but she went to a cloth shop. The owner of the cloth shop is from Jinling. Look at them." The tone of voice is recognizable."

"She wants to tell his wife the news." Zhao Yunshuang sneered, "Is everything ready?"

"Yes." Although Nianmei was a bit domineering, she was relying on her master's power, knowing what she was going to do, she would inevitably shiver.

"I will leave this matter to you. If it is done well, I will reward you heavily. If it is not done well, you will know my tricks." Zhao Yunshuang's tone was flat, but her eyes were extremely sharp and cold.

"Yes, grandma, don't worry, I will definitely take care of this matter!" Nianmei made a promise, and then told the outside world that she was going back to Zhao's house for business, and ordered someone to prepare a car and leave Zhang's house.

After a while, the carriage stopped at the entrance of a remote alley, and Nianmei got down from it and walked to one of the houses.After knocking on the door, a man opened the door, and treated Nianmei very respectfully and politely: "Ms. Nianmei is here, she has been kidnapped, don't worry, your eyes are blindfolded, you didn't see us."

"It doesn't matter if she sees you, she doesn't recognize you either." Nianmei glanced into the room, and faintly heard Chunliu's whimpering and struggling, because something was blocked in her mouth, she couldn't cry out.After all, Nianmei had never been through such a thing. She was afraid, so she didn't go in. She just passed the bottle in her hand to the other party and said, "Give her the medicine."

The man took the bottle, turned and entered the house.

In the open space of the house, Chunliu curled up there in embarrassment, her eyes were covered with cloth, the blue satin jacket was covered with dust, she was even shivering with fright.At this moment, Chunliu didn't think about Zhao Yunshuang, she just thought that someone with malicious intentions saw her and took her away with a sap.In the past in Jinling, people often heard that kidnappers were abhorrent, not only kidnapping children, but also abducting beautiful women. It is good to be sold as slaves in the end. I am afraid that they will be sold into those dirty places and tortured for the rest of their lives.

The man showed no mercy, his calloused hands pinched Chunliu's chin, opened her mouth, and poured down the bottle full of medicinal juice.Chunliu naturally didn't dare to drink it, but she couldn't resist at all, so she could only let the medicine juice go into her stomach, and she was choked until she coughed.While she was able to speak, Chunliu hurriedly begged for mercy: "Please let me go, I, I am broken and worthless. I am a girl from Mrs. Zhang's family. Our third master is rich, and the third master will redeem me ..."

The man sneered and covered his mouth again.

Chunliu was terrified, but it didn't take long before she felt severe pain in her lower abdomen, unable to cry out, and could only roll around on the floor.Nianmei glanced in from the window, and saw that Chunliu's face was covered with tears and sweat, and the cotton skirt under her body had been stained red with blood, and the pungent smell of blood was very uncomfortable.

"Yes!" Although Nianmei couldn't bear it, she felt relieved, who made this lowly servant girl dare to hook up with the third master.

The man went in again and took the cloth dumpling from Chunliu's mouth. Chunliu opened his mouth to shout, but he could only make a hoarse ahhh sound, and suddenly his heart went cold, and all thoughts were lost.Just now, she only felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, but she thought that the burning in her throat was an illusion. It turned out that...they even dumbed her down.

After all, Chunliu was a smart person, so she immediately guessed that something was wrong, and she became suspicious of Zhao Yunshuang.

The man said to Nianmei: "People are coming, girl, stay away."

Nianmei asked, "Is this the one I want?"

"Don't worry, girl, I've found out. This person calls him Old Third He, and he often has some handsome and delicate children around him. They say they are human teeth, but they are actually kidnappers. He likes to do business without capital. He Most of the beautiful girls in my hand have been sold to the Jiangnan area."

"That can be regarded as sending her back to her hometown." Nianmei glanced inward again, just in time to see Chunliu looking up, although she was blindfolded, Chunliu clearly recognized her from the voice.Nianmei panicked at first, then calmed down, and said in a cold voice: "What kind of noble person is our grandma, you can't compare with a single finger, and dare to rely on your wife to seduce the third master. Now you regret it It's too late!"

Chunliu burst into tears immediately, but in the ears of outsiders, there was only whimpering.

Chunliu is the son of Zhang's family. Her parents are old people in front of Zhang's mother. She is very respectable. She has served in front of Zhang's mother since she was a child. She also grew up eating and drinking. She is very loyal and grateful to Zhang's family. .She also looked at the young masters of the Zhang family since she was a child, and saw the respect and love of the third master for his wife. She was not envious, but dared not imagine.Now it was my wife who mentioned it, and she just came to Beijing, but she never expected this result.If she had known earlier, she would definitely have rejected his wife's proposal, but it was too late.

Nianmei personally watched Chunliu being bought by He Laosan for two taels of silver. When she left, her lower body was still bleeding, but she had poured a lot of red flowers, fearing that she would never be able to conceive again in this life.

He rewarded the man with silver and another ten taels, and ordered him to go back.

This man is from the Zhao family, he used to help Zhao Yunshuang with affairs, and wanted to ask Nianmei to be his wife, he was very diligent and loyal.Nianmei looked down on him, thinking he was old, vulgar, and had little money.She also thought that she was Zhao Yunshuang's confidant girl, and it would be more decent and beneficial to marry the housekeeper in the future.

Both Zhao Yunshuang and Nianmei thought that the matter was unknown, even if Zhang Ming had doubts, but Chunliu could not be found at that time, and there was no proof, so Zhao Yunshuang insisted that Chunliu went out and got lost and never came back. What can he do?If Chunliu's deed of selling herself hadn't been in the hands of Zhang's mother, she would have even wanted to dispose of Chunliu in front of all the servants, and make an example to others!

With a Chunliu, Zhao Yunshuang believed that the relationship between husband and wife had been irreparably cracked, so she was not afraid of doing things harshly. No matter how dissatisfied the Zhang family was, they did not dare to say that they wanted to divorce her.She was too weak before, but if she was tougher, how could the Zhang family's parents force her in?

Thinking about it, she sent Nianmei back to her natal family and asked her grandfather to write a letter to the Zhang family in Jinling.

Zhao Ke was a lover of his granddaughter, and when he heard that Zhang Ming was having sex with the girl, and he wanted to openly accept her as a serious concubine, he was immediately annoyed.Immediately, he wrote a letter and ordered someone to send it to Jinling. The words in the letter were very rude, and he called Zhang Ming again, and severely reprimanded him, threatening his career in the letter.

Zhang Ming was very disgusted in his heart, and even the guilt towards Zhao Yunshuang disappeared, but facing the powerful Zhao family, he had to bow his head and promised to send Chunliu back to Jinling.

After leaving Zhao's house, Zhang Ming was exhausted, and he didn't want to go home to face Zhao Yunshuang.

Zhang Ming himself is a talented and ambitious person, and he was young when he was in the middle school. I don't know how many people praised him.Because of his marriage to the Zhao family, outsiders thought he obtained everything through the Zhao family. Scholars are inherently arrogant, and the Imperial Academy is a place of nobles. For Zhang Ming, the label "Zhao's son-in-law" is always mentioned, which makes his situation very bad.I worked hard in the Imperial Academy every day, and I just wanted to be quiet when I went home, but I was born and couldn't be quiet, so I was even more tired.

It was not the first time that he was called to Zhao's house as soon as he was on duty today.

After waving his hand to order the sedan chair to go back first, he walked into a tavern by himself and ordered wine.But before the wine was drunk, a child came and handed him a piece of paper, saying, "Someone asked me to give you this, saying that you would buy me candied haws after reading the letter."

This child is only five or six years old, and it is the time when he is greedy.

Zhang Ming just felt strange, took out a few copper coins and gave him, and opened the paper.When he saw the contents of the letter, he stood up and took the chair down without hesitation, and ran out of the tavern in a hurry, and the waiter caught up behind him: "Master, you haven't paid me yet."

Zhang Ming took out a piece of broken silver and stuffed it to the buddy, but he didn't care about the change, and rushed directly to Wucheng Bingma Division, saying that he had found the kidnapper.Because Zhang Ming is an official, and what he said is convincing, there are indeed a few reports that they have lost their children recently. The Wucheng Bingma Division sent people to follow Zhang Ming to a village outside the city, and they found a few big men with them. A group of children of different sizes and several pretty women acted suspiciously.

After a simple investigation, the words of He Laosan and the others were full of loopholes, and they were all taken back.However, Zhang Ming found Chunliu unconscious with a high fever on the firewood floor of the house. He hired a car from the village and town to take him back to the city, and found a medical clinic for diagnosis and treatment.

After looking at the description, the doctor took a pulse again, and the way he looked at Zhang Ming was not quite right.The doctor has been practicing medicine for many years, and has seen many strange things. He didn't say much, but sighed: "This girl has been fed a lot of red flowers. Although she will not be sterile, it will be extremely difficult to conceive in the future. If she becomes pregnant, it will be extremely difficult. It is easy to slip a tire, and one slip will do more harm to her body. According to my experience in practicing medicine for many years, if this girl is lucky enough to conceive in the future, she will only have one chance. Be careful about miscarriage, and be very cautious .”

Zhang Ming's heart sank, thinking of Zhao Yunshuang's temperament, he was not surprised, and asked again: "Why did she have a high fever and fell into a coma? Could there be something wrong?"

"The girl was injured. I mean her body was injured, and she lost a lot of blood. That's why she came like this. Fortunately, she came in time. If it's half an hour later, it may be difficult to save her." The doctor prescribed the medicine, He asked again.

Zhang Ming took the medicine according to the prescription, and was about to find a car to take Chunliu back, but hesitated again.Thinking of the power of the Zhao family, even if Chunliu went back, he might still be doomed in the end.In the end, Zhang Ming found an inn, asked for a small quiet courtyard, and asked the innkeeper to invite a woman to take care of Chunliu. After everything was settled, he left.

Back in the mansion, Zhang Ming just felt tired and went straight to the study.

In the backyard, Zhao Yunshuang learned that Zhang Ming was back, but she never waited for the other party to come to ask Chunliu's whereabouts, she couldn't help being very strange.He ordered Nianmei to inquire, but when he learned that Zhang Ming had already rested in the study, he felt even more strange.After tossing and turning all night, he woke up before dawn the next day and called Nianmei over.

"Go, ask me clearly, where the third master went, what he did, and who he had contact with yesterday. Be sure to ask me clearly!" Zhao Yunshuang felt that things were out of control, which made her very uneasy.

But Zhang Ming didn't pay attention to these things, and he didn't shy away from doing things. He got up early and went out earlier than before, and he often followed Li Si with his body.He led Li Si to the inn, so that he didn't have to go back in the future, but just took care of Chunliu here, and sent him back to Jinling when Chunliu was better.

Li Si was startled when he saw Chunliu, who was fine yesterday, but today looked pale and almost breathless.Seeing the third master acting like this again, thinking of the third grandma at home, I immediately understood.

But Zhao Yunshuang sent people to follow Zhang Ming, and found Chunliu easily, and it took two or three days to find out Zhang Ming's whereabouts on the day of the accident.Someone sent a letter to Zhang Ming!

Zhao Yunshuang didn't care about Chunliu anymore. After all, although Chunliu had regained a life, it was wasted, and she would not be an eyesore in front of her in the future, but the people behind the scenes made her jealous and hated.She had always believed that wild geese left traces, and she must find out the identity of the person behind the scenes. For this reason, she recruited a few people from her natal family and promised to lure them with a lot of money.

It is said that there is no wall that does not leak. Although Zhang Ming is an inconspicuous official in the capital, he is the grandson-in-law of Zuodu Censor. Many people in Beijing recognize him, including the deputy commander of the Wucheng Army and Horse Division that day.This person likes to drink in his spare time, and when he is drinking, he tells the story of Zhang Ming being a girl who went to Wucheng Bingmasi.

People don't talk about Zhao Yunshuang being jealous or vicious. After all, Zhao Yunshuang has been like this all these years, and her behavior and reputation before she got married are all there. Such behavior is not surprising at all.On the other hand, Zhang Ming, many people outside thought that he was afraid of his wife's natal family, or thought that he had true feelings for Zhao, and they were all surprised. They didn't expect him to dare to get a girl under Zhao's nose.

Lin Qingyun also heard about this, she just sighed, she didn't expect that the two have been married for so many years, and now they have come to this point.She put this matter aside in a flash, she and Daiyu have been busy with cherishing spring recently.

The Fan You mentioned by Baoyu last time had a really good family background. The Fan family was a big family in the previous dynasty, but after the war broke out, the family members dispersed, and the family gradually disappeared.Fan You has never been married for any other reason, but just like Tu Yan back then, he must get someone he likes, otherwise even a princess or a fairy would not want it.In this world, unmarried men and women cannot meet each other, and the ones who can meet are not girls from good families, and appearance is not the first choice, Fan You is a person who values ​​talent.Fan You dabbled a lot by himself. He drew a painting, and whenever someone proposed to him, he would send this painting to the girl and ask the other party to compose poems based on the painting, so as to find a matchmaker.

Daiyu's eyes lit up when she heard about this: "It's really an elegant way. Although he is good, the fourth sister is not bad. We are trying so hard to find a match for the fourth sister. Mr. Fan's move is just right. Let Baoyu fetch the painting and ask the fourth sister to compose poems."

Lin Qingjun also found Fan You's method interesting, but stopped her after listening to Daiyu's words, and asked, "Is he willing to marry the county magistrate?"

Daiyu smiled and said, "Sister, don't worry, I naturally asked about this. It turns out that the second elder brother dared to mention it to us because Mr. Fan said that as long as we agree with each other, it doesn't matter the girl's family background. The second elder brother asked tentatively. , What if it is the county owner? Then Mr. Fan asked back, 'But Ninghe county owner'?"

"Why?"

"When they met back then, the second elder brother revealed his identity, and said that he was sending the fourth younger sister to get married. At that time, the second elder brother didn't understand anything, but Mr. Fan didn't dislike or look down on him. Instead, he chatted with him, and gradually Introduced as confidantes. The two went to Beijing together, but later, when the grandmother fell ill, the second elder brother rushed back first, but Mr. Fan stopped and stopped all the way, and only arrived in Beijing in July and August this year. The second elder brother Said that he was very careful outside and didn't mention anything about the sisters, only one time he inadvertently left out a painting of the fourth sister, maybe Mr. Fan saw it."

"What did you draw?" Lin Qingyun became interested.

"Mt. Jiuhua Yunfeng. This is the Mount Jiuhua that my sister went south that year. The picture album brought back has a sketch of the scenery of Mount Jiuhua. The fourth sister loves it very much and often looks at it. Later, I drew Zhang Shanshui according to that picture. It was brilliant. I remember that the fourth sister was also very satisfied with that one, and somehow it got into the hands of the second brother."

Lin Qingyun remembered that painting, it was clearly just a few brushstrokes, but it rendered high mountains, steep peaks, surging dark clouds, broad vision, and agitated emotions.If there is a viewer, it must also be emotional: the husband of heaven and earth, the reverse journey of all things;But life is like a dream, how can you be happy?

Lin Qingyun sighed with a smile: "At that time, I said that she painted well, but she felt depressed when she said those words. At that time, she still planned to become a monk with Miaoyu. If Mr. Fan It is because Hua has a heart for the fourth sister, it can be seen that there is a big valley in the heart, if this happens, it will be a good couple."

Daiyu liked it at first, but then hesitated: "We talked well here, but the imperial court..."

"It doesn't matter, I'll beg for love with the empress. Besides, Mr. Fan's family background can also be obtained. As for how they will live as a couple in the future, that's their own business." Lin Qingyun is not unable to help , It's just related to other people's husband and wife matters, so it's natural for the husband and wife to discuss it. If they reach an agreement and ask for help, she will naturally be happy to help.Furthermore, she felt that Fan You was not incompetent, even if Xichun really wanted to get married, she would plan a lot of tricks to get out of Beijing.

The two discussed and inspected back and forth for more than half a month, and they were quite satisfied, so they took the time to formally mention it to Xichun.

At this time, Xichun had already returned to the palace, she was having a baby and couldn't go out and walk around, so she had to invite someone here again.Xichun is not ignorant of the things she and Daiyu have been busy with lately. Seeing her mentioning it to her face, she said earnestly after being shy: "I belong to Sister Xinqingyun and Sister Lin, since both of you have inquired about it. , Mr. Fan must be really kind. Between us sisters, I don’t lie to my sister. I always wanted to leave the capital to go outside. I don’t know how envious my sister went south. If I can get a good marriage in the future, how about husband and wife Isn't it the life of a god? I don't feel ashamed anymore, so I asked sister Qingyun to bring that painting by Mr. Fan. If you get it, I'm lucky; if you don't, it's my fate."

Seeing that she was so straightforward, Lin Qingyun gave her the painting.

Xichun used to be a painter, her eyes lit up when she saw a painting, she kept looking at it, but she didn't know where her mind wandered.That night, Xichun sent a poem, and Lin Qingyun ordered someone to send it to Jia Baoyu.

Jia Baoyu was keeping a filial piety and couldn't travel outside, so he invited Fan You to his home and handed over his poems.

Fan You is a head taller than Baoyu, and his appearance is not very clear, but his indifferent and elegant temperament is unforgettable.When Fan You received the poems, the first thing that catches his eye was the words, which is not very brilliant, but after reading the poems, he felt extremely happy in his heart, and laughed repeatedly: "It's her! It's her!"

Baoyu was used to his occasional madness, so he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again: "But the poems are good? My fourth sister is good at drawing, but not good at one poem."

Fan You said with a smile: "There is no perfect person in the world. Lingmei's poetry is indeed limited, but it's rare that this kind of ambition is exactly what I want." He restrained his smile, got up and bowed to Jia Baoyu "Baoyu, if this marriage is successful, it's all due to you, and I should thank you."

But Jia Baoyu laughed and said, "If I hadn't been guided by you back then, I wouldn't be who I am today, nor would I be married to you today."

Fan You also laughed when he heard this, and then frowned and said, "Although I am not bad at myself, I only raise people in the end. Lingmei is the head of Ninghe County. It is a meritorious service to be married to foreign feudal clans. I am afraid that the court will not want to marry easily."

"Just don't worry about this matter. The fourth younger sister has a close relationship with Princess Chunqin. The princess has already said that she will help. It is you who should prepare the dowry as soon as possible."

"Thank you!" Fan You thanked him again, and left in a hurry.

It happened that Xiangyun came to look for Baoyu, but when he heard that Baoyu was receiving guests, he turned to Tanchun.Tanchun is smarter than Xiangyun, and now that the house is small and there is no Mrs. Wang over it, it is very easy to know something.Because Xiangyun asked Baoyu what he was up to recently, he didn't spend much time with them.

Tanchun flicked the chess pieces, with an inexplicable expression: "Second brother has grown up and knows how to avoid taboos, so naturally he doesn't mix with the sisters. Now, he is busy with the important affairs of the fourth sister. The county magistrate bestowed by the court, how can he be needed?" Come worry, a wandering Juren..."

"What did the third sister say?" Because Tan Chunyue's voice became lower and lower, Xiang Yun couldn't hear the rest of the words clearly.

"It's nothing." Tanchun didn't say anything.
