The Opening of the Red Chamber

It will take time for uncle Jia Amnesty to turn himself into a strong attack on this question, but the most important thing right now is that the things that bother me alone are worse than sharing them and letting others worry with me is the theme of life.Lin Fan thought so in his heart.

After lunch, in the study, Jia She's hesitant footsteps grinding the floor began again.

"Come on, every time I see your niece's expression, I feel like I'm going to have a headache." Unable to sit down and talk, Jia She walked back and forth in the study, trying to suppress his heart by taking a walk in the study. uneasy.

Holding the scented tea in his hands, Lin Fan calmly said, "Uncle, please calm down and wait for me to brew some emotions."

"Tell me, you still have so many cutscenes?"

"No!" Lin Fan shook his head and said solemnly, "I have to think about what kind of tactful way I should tell you."

"The matter is difficult? Something to do with the above?"

"Uncle, when did I tell you something that had nothing to do with the above?"

Jia She stamped his feet, stared at Lin Fan, his breathing was rapid, his face was not looking good, and his brows began to wrinkle: "Every time you want to say that, I always feel that I am going to stab you for you." Make up for the leaks that come out."

"You don't need to make it up this time, I will."

Jia She stared at Lin Fan: "..."

Lin Fan took a sip of scented tea, and after sorting out the ins and outs of the matter in his mind, he said, "As for the grandmother, she was drugged to lose her mind, and she is fine for the time being." She was so startled that his eyes almost popped out, and Lin Fan had to say quickly, "Don't get excited, uncle, just listen to me. Calm down! This matter is very complicated!" Seeing Before seeing Jia Amnesty going crazy like a big cat with fur, Lin Fan quickly resumed the topic, "This matter was written by a person who I can't figure out whether it is an enemy or a friend and told me in a ball of paper. There is also the second thing, this person told me to sell all the grain stored in Zhuangzili under my name to a man named Wang Yue at [-]% of the market price. The third thing is that the Tomorrow Princess Mansion invited me over Get together."

After listening to it, Jia Amnesty's hair straightened up in an instant, and he stopped cooking.

After a while, he asked, "What about the ball of paper?"

"Burn it when you see it, so as not to keep the night long and dreamy." Lin Fan said softly, playing with a piece of jade pendant in his hand, and said doubtfully, "Uncle, the third thing is the invitation card from the princess mansion. The first two The thing, is on a ball of paper."

Jia Amnesty fell into deep thought, instead of walking up and down, he sat down in front of the desk and began to think.

Lin Fan calmly took down the Go game that had been put aside from the Duobao Pavilion, and then sat on the Arhat's couch by the chess board at the small square table, playing the game record by himself.She also needs to be quiet and think about who this mysterious letter writer is.What's more, today, by the way, I have to imagine what kind of things I will face when I arrive at the Princess Mansion tomorrow.As for the last thing, when will someone named Wang Yue appear in the Zhuangzi to contact her?

A pile of fanciful things, now I can't find a clue.Lin Fan felt that what happened in the past few days was really traumatic to the brain cells.It's no wonder that those ancient people who were smarter, able to make suggestions, and able to get on the stage, most of them had higher hairlines in front of their foreheads.In fact, I thought it wasn't like that at first, it's just that I thought about things too much, and I became bald.

Jia Amnesty pondered for a long time in the study without uttering a word, Lin Fan didn't urge him, and went back to Yaoquanxuan by himself first.

As soon as she returned to Yaoquanxuan, she saw Yunxia and Yunqian were tidying her wardrobe.

It was late April, which was a good time for early summer.

The hardships and worries of the outside world seem to be isolated from the courtyard of Yaoquanxuan.

The garden is full of green vines, green grass, diverse flowers and gorgeous colors.In such an environment, he did not feel the treacherous situation and changes in the world outside the hospital at all.Once standing in the yard, the boredom in my heart will dissipate a lot unconsciously. It's no wonder that the ancient noble ladies and ladies can stay out of the door without leaving the door. Enough economic strength has built a safe place for them. paradise.

But Lin Fan's current situation is heartbroken. Through the open window, he can clearly see Yunxia and Yunqian busy matching clothes in front of the closet and dressing table, discussing the jewelry and other items needed for going out tomorrow. She felt more and more uneasy about the thoughts in her head.I can't wait to have a bowl of requiem soup at this moment, and just drink it and sleep until tomorrow morning.

The little girl Qiaohe and Qiaolan who were guarding under the eaves of the porch outside the door saw her come back, they wanted to open their mouths to say hello, but were stopped by Lin Fan's index finger in front of their lips.After standing in the yard for a while, she walked up the steps.Qiaohe stepped forward to open the door curtain, and said in a low voice: "It just so happened that the girl came back. Sister Yunqian was still talking about what kind of hair bun she was going to give the girl to go out tomorrow. She also said that she was waiting for the girl to come back. Try it first." While speaking, Lin Fan waved his hand and entered the room.

After hearing the voice of the little girl Qiaohe, Yunxia and Yu Yunqian knew that Lin Fan was back.

The two maidservants came forward, leaning on Lin Fan's side, laughing and dragging her to the inner room, saying, "Girl, come and try on the newly made clothes to see if they fit. If not If it is appropriate or inappropriate, we will have time to change it.”

"Don't make it so ostentatious, the queen mother is gone years ago, and the eldest princess will definitely not be in a good mood when she sees those famous people." Lin Fan emphasized, "I'm afraid I'm the only one who will go tomorrow. , No matter how beautiful it is, no one will look at it.”

When the two girls heard it, they realized something.Yun Wei replied: "Don't worry, girl, they are all very plain colors. They are neither eye-catching nor outstanding." While speaking, Yun Xia brought the dress, Lin Fan glanced at it, it was embroidered with jade fat white satin A shirt with peony flowers, a multi-pleated horse-face skirt in light beige, with scattered small flowers embroidered with royal blue silk thread on the corners of the skirt.Very timely, not eye-catching or fancy.

Lin Fan nodded, and said to Yun Qian: "When I just came back, I heard you two discussing how to give me a bun, so let's try it now." Good to take a nap.

This order fulfilled the wishes of the two girls. For a while, Lin Fan sat down in front of the vanity mirror and let them toss about.

However, the things in my mind couldn't be calmed down. I wondered if I should write to Lin Shisi this afternoon to make him take precautions. By the way, I would like to inform Xue's family that all business contacts recently should be restrained. better.While thinking about what to do in my heart, I was thinking about the steps to retreat to avoid the limelight, and time passed by.Looking at his dignified self in the mirror, Lin Fan nodded in satisfaction, and asked the two girls to change into their clothes. After seeing the effect, he felt relieved.

After that, go to take a nap to refresh your mind.

Before dinner in the evening, Jia She sent someone to pass the word, asking Lin Fan to go to the study to discuss matters.

This time, he returned to the yard after dark, and was so tired that he didn't want to say a word, so he fell into bed and went to sleep.Anyway, this matter is something that everyone worries about.Jia Amnesty thought about it for a noon, and finally came to a conclusion that he stood still.As for Lin Fan, his idea was even more surprising, saying that he was pretending not to hear.But Lin Fan didn't tell him another thing, there are uncertain factors around her father.In addition, Qin Keqing's matter is even more a fatal spot, which cannot be touched at all.As a result, the effect of trying to reduce my troubles was not there, but it increased a lot.

One night, Lin Fan didn't know how he fell asleep, and his dreams were all a mess of dreams.

Early the next morning, she was dug out of the bed by the maids, washed and changed, and after breakfast, she dressed up and went out.Since he was going to the princess mansion, he couldn't just take two maids and go out casually.So they called the four maids, Yunxia, ​​Yunwei, Jingyun, and Jingyuan, and brought along the two nurturing mothers from the palace, Hao Momo and Liu Momo, and called Xu Momo and Gao Momo. Nanny, these two old people who came out of the palace.He took two carriages, followed by the servants and maids, and went all the way to the Princess Mansion.

After not coming to the Princess Mansion for a long time, Lin Fan felt depressed when he stood at the gate of the mansion under the red walls and blue tiles again.

The maids and mothers beside the eldest princess had been waiting at the door for a long time. When they saw Lin Fan and his party coming, they greeted them with smiles.

On the way here, Lin Fan wondered from the bottom of his heart that this eldest princess didn't know what kind of brainwashing course he was going to give her this time, so he also made many guesses in his heart, and finally made himself more dull and irritable.

Maybe because they knew that Lin Fan had clashed with the pond in the princess mansion, this time the banquet venue was chosen to be in the flower hall.

Her Royal Highness the Princess had been waiting for a long time, and when she saw the person she had invited, she waved her hand and dismissed all idlers.

"It's been a long time since I saw Miss Lin, but she fell into the pool last time, are you still angry?" The amiable greeting from the eldest princess made Lin Fan's heart tense.Lin Fan, who is a rough guy at heart, is most afraid of this kind of gentle, trapping dialogue.Because of this kind of dialogue, you have to turn back and forth in your mind and think many times before you dare to answer.

"Your Highness, you are joking." Lin Fan politely stepped forward and saluted, and then continued, "My little girl has had seasonal cough since she was a child. The weather was very cold a few years ago, and she played in the snow with her sisters. Playing around, catching the cold, and then locked up to recuperate from illness. It was because of this that he didn't show up, which made His Highness worry."

While speaking, a servant girl brought the fragrant tea and quickly retreated.

The eldest princess looked at Lin Fan, and said with a half-smile, "Girl Lin has always been a smart person, and I like it very much." With these words, Lin Fan's scalp felt numb, and it seemed that the theme had come. "Should Miss Lin know about Grandma Xiaorong?"

Lin Fan didn't expect the eldest princess to be so direct, but he answered truthfully: "I know." Under such circumstances, it is better to answer honestly, and you can also see some clues from the eldest princess' eyes.

"That's good." Her Royal Highness nodded in satisfaction, "Miss Lin is a smart person. As an elder, I already knew about the care I took for her a few days ago. If you hadn't sent her over for her illness Things, of course, can’t get better.”

"Your Highness, Grandma Xiao Rong, she..." Lin Fan hesitated to speak, she really couldn't ask that question.

Her Royal Highness seemed to see Lin Fan's hesitation and embarrassment, but she asked instead: "If you have anything to ask, just ask directly. I will tell you what I know."

Lin Fan took a deep breath, suppressed the tension in his heart, and asked, "She will live a good life, right?"
