I am a man in a dream

Since Baoyu moved out of the garden, she has been studying every day under the supervision of Mrs. Wang. On this day, Baoyu remembered that her second sister was going home to visit her relatives soon, so she thought about making two boxes of rouge for her.I was working hard, but I don't know when Tanchun laughed from behind: "I just met Xiren and said that the second elder brother is studying hard, so I don't think he is using this skill." Baoyu laughed and said, "Second sister is going to When I came back, I thought that the rouge I gave her would be used up, so I picked peach blossoms and made it. Sister Qingwen taught me this." Said, his eyes darkened.Tanchun was also dejected when he heard this.

The two were talking, when the attacker came to report, Mingyan was waiting outside the second door for an answer.Baoyu went in a hurry. It turned out that Xue Pan was looking for him in a hurry.Seeing Baoyu from a distance, he shouted, "Brother Bao! Brother Bao!" Baoyu asked, "What's wrong with Brother Xue?" Ask: "Brother Wei? That Brother Wei? The Concubine Nan'an is here today, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get out." Xue Pan said, "It's Wei Ruolan, Brother Wei." Baoyu said in surprise, "What happened to Brother Wei's house?" "Xue Pan cried: "Brother Wei's family has an accident!" Baoyu was shocked: "Didn't you say that the class teacher will be triumphant?" Xue Pan frowned and said: "It's defeated! Even the king of Nan'an County was captured by the vassal king Let's go." Baoyu hurriedly asked, "What about Old Uncle Wei?" Xue Pan choked up and said, "Old Uncle Wei died in battle!" Hearing this, Baoyu burned all inside, and hurriedly followed Xue Pan to see Wei Ruolan.

In the Rong Mansion, Concubine Nan'an brought a lot of gifts to visit, and Mother Jia and others rushed to greet them with splendid clothes.The concubine exchanged a few pleasantries, and then wanted to see the third girl.Everyone didn't know what was going on, and they didn't dare to ask more questions, so they had to order Zhou Rui's family to call.

When Baoyu saw Wei Ruolan, he saw that his eyes were full of resentment, and he hacked at the bamboo to vent his anger.Baoyu, Xue Pan, and Wei Ruolan hugged each other and cried loudly. They sat around and choked silently.After a while, a friend came to report that the court wanted to negotiate a peace.Several people were shocked and even more angry.The friend said: "I heard that as long as you marry the sister of the king of Nan'an and get married, the king of Nan'an will be released." Baoyu asked: "The king of Nan'an only has one sister. How can the concubine of Nan'an let her marry so far away?" The man said: "I heard that Concubine Nan'an wants to recognize a righteous daughter." Baoyu felt bad when he heard this.

Tanchun got the letter and changed his clothes, arranged his hair in a bun, and brought some green phoenix hairpins to the ceremony. The concubine looked her up and down, was very satisfied, and hurriedly stood up to let her sit flat.Afterwards, he informed Tanchun of his intention to come, and Tanchun was turned upside down for a while, five thunders struck his head, and he stared straight at the ground, as if he lost his soul.Seeing this, the concubine also felt sad, and couldn't help but shed two tears.Mother Jia looked at Tanchun with tears in her eyes, not knowing what to say, Madam Wang also shed tears, only Madam Xing was indifferent, looking at Madam Wang seemed complacent.For a while the atmosphere was stiff and there was no sound.Mother Jia had no choice but to remind Tanchun: "Three girls, hurry up and kowtow to the concubine." What.It was only after the ceremony that I recalled it, and tears fell like rain in an instant.

In Lin's mansion, Daiyu is facing the post.Zijuan held the lamp, turned on the light, and said, "My uncle just went, and he didn't come back half a year ago, so he didn't come to check the second master's homework. The girl doesn't need to prepare this for him early." A few words." Zijuan said: "Since the girl moved back to the Lin Mansion, she has not cried a few times a day. Seeing that her health has improved, she has lost weight again. It only made Yechou's hair gray a few times. root."

After Baoyu separated from several people, he went to Lin's mansion to meet Daiyu. As soon as he entered the door, he saw her covering her face and crying, and asked quickly, "Why are you crying?" Daiyu saw him and ran out crying.Baoyu panicked, thinking of Princess Nan'an, he asked Zijuan, "Has anyone been here today?" Zijuan replied, "No!" Baoyu asked again, "But have you been out?" No!" Baoyu wondered, "Then why are you crying again?" Zijuan didn't know what to say.Baoyu had no choice but to grab the lantern in her hand and chase it out.After a while, the two met to see Tanchun. Because it was too late, Lin Hongming was afraid that something would be wrong, so he had to give up, and made an appointment to go to Qiushuangzhai to visit Tanchun tomorrow.When Baoyu left, Daiyu asked, "What happened to the third sister?" Lin Hongming lowered his head, not knowing what to say, and after a long meeting, he said, "The king of Nan'an was defeated in Yanzi, Xihai, and was defeated by him. The vassal king has gone captive. The court wants to negotiate a peace, as long as the Nanan County King’s sister is married, the Nan’an County King will be released. How could the Nan’an Princess be willing to send her daughter to that bitter cold place, so she recognized the third sister as a daughter-in-law The purpose is to be the princess of the vassal. It has been set on March [-]th to go on the road." Daiyu was very sad when she heard this: "The third sister has such a result." Zijuan said: "So the third girl I will only be at home for more than ten days." Lin Hongming sighed: "Yes!" Daiyu said: "The third day of the day after tomorrow is her birthday." Lin Hongming said: "It is useless to be so sad, we will visit tomorrow Third sister, give her a good birthday in the day after tomorrow. I guess this is also the last time to celebrate her birthday, the mountains are high and the roads are far away, I'm afraid we will never see each other again in this life."

On the second day, Lin Hongming, Daiyu, Baoyu, Baochai, Xichun and others came to Qiushuangzhai, but seeing Tanchun shedding tears on the book case, several people secretly wept when they saw this, but they did not dare to cause Tanchun's sad incident , I had to swallow tears and force myself to smile.Baoyu picked up the letter paper and looked at it carefully, saying: "What a beautiful small script, third sister, what are you writing this for?" Tanchun said: "Take it away! Take it out and have a look at it in your spare time. It can be regarded as meeting the people in this garden." Baoyu was sad when he heard this, and looked at the content of the letter paper. It turned out to be a masterpiece of the sisters in the poetry club in the past.A few people talked for a while and made an appointment to celebrate Tanchun's birthday together tomorrow, so that she could rest well and wait for tomorrow's birthday gift.On his birthday, Lin Hongming specially prepared a bracelet of five-color gemstones and presented it to Tanchun, implying that five blessings are coming.Daiyu prepared the four treasures of the excellent Huizhou study to send her off, hoping that she would have something to sustenance in other places.Baoyu knew that Tanchun liked small things, so he went to the street and asked craftsmen to make a small and exquisite figure out of porcelain, which looked very similar to Tanchun, and Tanchun held it in his hand, as if he really liked something.Baochai gave a good ink fox cloak, and Xichun gave Tanchun a painting, which showed the scene of everyone getting together on weekdays. After seeing it, Tanchun couldn't help but shed tears.Yingchun's Xin'er also came, hugged Tanchun and cried for a while, because Zhou's family was poor, he gave him a piece of clothing he had sewn.Everyone talked and laughed, cried and cried until late at night.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of marriage, and early in the morning, all the wives of the government ordered their wives to come to congratulate, and the busy Sister Feng never touched the ground.Tanchun was wearing a wedding attire, with a nine-luan phoenix hairpin on her head, looking like a concubine or fairy, unparalleled in beauty.Looking at Tanchun like this, Lin Hongming thought of how shrewd she was in the past, so the world was cold and life was impermanent.Tanchun went to the ancestral hall to worship his ancestors, cried for a long time, and was urged three or four times before going out. When he arrived at the tower of Juyongguan, Nan'an Princess, Jia Mu, Wang Furen and others were already waiting here. Nan'an Princess was wearing a yellow palace dress, With a smile all over her face, Mother Jia sat at the bottom, and Mrs. Wang and others stood on both sides, all with bitter brows, indescribably bitter.The dowry covered the entire city tower, and the two lines stretched for tens of miles, and the scene was even grand.With tears in his eyes, Tanchun knelt down, turned his head three times a step, got on the red sedan chair carried by eight people, walked a hundred meters, got off the sedan chair, and took a boat instead.Baoyu came in a hurry, holding Tanchun in his arms, his eyes met, and it was blood and tears.Baoyu walked step by step with Tanchun, boarded the boat, followed the flowing water and white clouds away from home step by step, bid farewell to parents, and cried for the rest of his life.

After Tanchun left, the garden was completely desolate, only Xichun was left to meditate and chant scriptures every day without asking about anything.Seeing this, Mrs. Wang moved Xichun out and sealed the garden.After Baoyu sent Tanchun to get married, Jia Zheng took her to take office. Seeing that the date of returning home was approaching, Mrs. Wang was very worried.Zhou Rui came to report this day, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked him to come in and ask, "Why didn't Baoyu come back?" The wind of the frontier fortress in the Tang Dynasty, the sound of the general’s grief at home. The master sent a post to the king of Beijing to help take care of it.” Mrs. Wang was furious when she heard this: “The master is really confused. If there is something wrong with Baoyu, let me live. I'm dead." Zhou Rui was so frightened that he was sweating all over and didn't dare to make a sound.

However, Xue Pan's wife, Xia Jingui, made a fuss every three or two days, but after Xiangling's death, she lived in peace for a few days.Baochai remembered that she had not seen Daiyu for many days, so she went to Lin's mansion to meet her.Seeing Zicuckoo, she asked, "What is your girl doing?" Zicuckoo looked embarrassed and hesitated.Baochai wondered, and asked, "But what's the matter?" Zijuan said, "You'll know when you go in." Puzzled, Baochai raised the curtain and came in, only to see Daiyu lying on the couch, pale and confused. , I am more haggard than before.Baochai hurriedly asked, "I haven't seen you for a few days. Why is Mao'er so sick?" Zijuan brought tea and said, "Since the third girl left, she hasn't cried a few times a day. For this matter, two The master was very anxious, and the first thing he did after finishing his official duties was to see the girl. The bird’s nest in ginseng soup did not improve, and the doctor invited a dozen of them, but nothing improved. Finally, the second master hired a good doctor from the south Come on, the diagnosis said that the girl is fine. She has taken good care of her body in the past few years, and she is about to recover, but because she cried so much, her heart was hurt, which caused the root cause of the disease. If you don't care about everything, you will get better." Baochai said Hearing this, he naturally knew it was not that simple, so he could only comfort him: "Why bother, I'm too weak to give birth to a baby, and think about what can't be done, it's hard to worry about Brother Lin, you have to relax."

Just as they were talking, Xue's family came to report in a hurry: "Girl, madam, please go back quickly." Baochai asked, "What happened at home?" , our uncle was taken by the governor’s yamen.” Baochai was startled, and hurriedly asked: “For what?” The mother-in-law turned pale with fright: “It is said that our uncle and the uncle of Wei Duwei’s family are fighting for an actor. "General﹍﹍" Baochai said anxiously: "What's wrong with general? Tell me quickly!" The woman said intermittently, "I beat him to death." Baochai's face turned pale, his eyes filled with tears, and he left in a hurry. go.
