[Red House + Space] Falling Spring

Waking up early in the morning, after changing clothes and washing, having breakfast in the room, pointing to the bundle of books on the desk and saying "go" to Pinxiu and Sazhi, I got up and wanted to go out.Pinxiu on the side couldn't help laughing, and said: "Miss, maybe you forgot that the teacher in the school resigned yesterday and went home, and the new teacher hasn't been invited yet, so the girl doesn't have to go to the school for the time being." .”

Luo Chun came to his senses, smiled and said: "That's right, I was still thinking about this when I woke up in the morning. Who would forget after thinking about it for so long. Looking up, I saw this thing on the desk in front of the window. Bao Shu, once he got used to it, he continued to say what he said in school."

Pinxiu smiled and said: "That's the girl who likes to study. Although the girl is the youngest among the girls, she is the most diligent. And even after school, besides the books in the school, she often goes to the master's study. Looking for books to read, so naturally I am always thinking about going to school. But girls, don't worry, wait for the new teacher to come over later, when there are girls going to school, these days, girls will be on vacation at school, let's have a good rest .”

Luo Chun smiled, but didn't speak.Walking to the desk and touching the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on it, she sighed imperceptibly, she would not have to go to school anymore, because the mansion would not invite a new wife for them.The gentleman who originally taught them in the mansion was a nanny who was invited by Jiamu to the palace to teach Yuanchun.Back then, in order for Yuanchun to have a good future in the palace, the mansion invited four nuns from the palace to teach Yuanchun.After Yuanchun entered the palace, these four nuns had no room to use, and people from other mansions came to invite them. After that, three of them left, and the remaining one didn't want to work hard, so he stayed in Jia's mansion , to enlighten the girls in the mansion and the girls in the side branches.In all honesty, this nanny's educational level is average, but what she is good at is not knowledge, so Yingchun and the others are not modest when they study. It is really like what Jiamu said, but for the sake of knowing a few words. It's not appropriate to open your eyes and be blind.

Mrs. Wang, who is in charge of the house, is from the Wang family. The girls in the Wang family are usually illiterate, so she doesn't care about the girls in the house being able to read and write. The nanny who taught Yingchun and the others was getting old and wanted to return home. After leaving the school with Jia's family and going home, she told Jia's mother that the purpose of letting the girls go to school was to learn a few words. , so as to be able to recognize the virtuous books that teach women's virtues such as "Four Books for Women", "Biography of Lie Nu", and "Collection of Xian Yuan", so as not to lose the duty of being a woman.Now all the girls are able to recite poems and compose correctly, which shows that they can read the characters almost, and their knowledge is enough, not to mention that the girls are growing up day by day, and they should be the most important for women's needlework, so there is no need to ask for a teacher anymore. If you are afraid that the girls will lose their master's guidance and lose control, you can ask Li Wan to help them restrain them.

Among the grandchildren, except for Baoyu, Jia's mother didn't care much about others, so she didn't comment on Mrs. Wang's words, only saying that she was very relieved as a daughter-in-law to handle affairs, and she could decide these trivial matters by herself.So this matter was decided by Mrs. Wang, and the girls could no longer learn.When Mrs. Wang said this in front of everyone yesterday, Pinxiu was sent by Luochun to Mrs. Xing's place, so she wasn't there, so she didn't know that the girls in the mansion had nothing to learn in the future.

There is no school to go to, and Luochun doesn't want to go to the house, so he writes a post in the room for a while, and then he stops after writing an inkstone full of ink.After washing her hands, she asked Saori to put away the written words. Luochun didn't want to touch the needle and thread. She looked around and saw that the girls and women were busy. Leaning on the couch, flipping through one another to pass the time.Looking at it, Luo Chun felt his eyes were astringent, his eyelids drooped, he yawned, threw away the book in his hand, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

"Girl, wake up, if you're sleepy, it's better to go to bed and sleep. The weather is hot and cold these days, you may get sick if you sleep like this." Pinxiu came up and gently pushed Luochun, and persuaded in a low voice.

"Hmm..." Luochun barely opened a pair of sleepy eyes, sat up under Pinxiu's service, and said: "I won't sleep anymore, I'll sleep too much. I'm sleepy at night, so I won't be able to sleep. Pour me a glass." Come tea."

Sazhi at the side hurriedly brought over a teacup, Luochun took a sip, handed it back to Sazhi, straightened up and stretched, the person regained consciousness, and said with a smile: "After lunch, help me prepare hot water. I want to wash my hair."

After a short break in the afternoon, Pinxiu and Shazhi washed Luochun's hair as attendants, and put no one on the porch, let Luochun lean on it halfway, spread out Luochun's black and beautiful long hair, and let her hang out to dry. on a few.Luochun was watching the girls bathing the parrot, Luo'er hurried over and said: "Girl, hurry up and see, Baoyu was beaten, the old lady is holding Bao Erye and crying."

"Second brother Bao was beaten for what? Was it the second uncle who did it? Was the beating severe?" Luo Chun asked incessantly, getting up and asking Pinxiu to help her comb her hair and change clothes quickly, she was going to the upper room take a look.Facing Luochun's question, Luo'er shook her head, unable to answer any of them.Saori was so angry that she gave her a blank look, and reproached her: "You said that you didn't even understand what happened after you passed on the message. Isn't that making people anxious!"

Pinxiu pulled up Luochun's hair nimbly, and said: "Miss, don't worry, don't worry, you'll be fine. No matter who did it, everyone in this house knows that the old lady loves Second Master Bao the most, so just rush Now, I don't dare to lay a heavy hand on Second Master Bao."

Luo Chun curled her lips and did not speak.She wasn't worried about Baoyu. If she hadn't heard that Jia's mother was holding Baoyu and crying, she might not have made this trip.As Pinxiu said, no one in the Mansion knows that Baoyu is the person on Jiamu's heart, and the reason why she visits is to show Jiamu.

Luochun rushed to Jia Mu's room, but before entering the room, Jia Mu's voice came from inside: "...My son, this black-hearted old thief, how could he deal with such a cruel hand? It was beaten by hand..." Luochun entered the room, and saw Jia Mu holding Baoyu in her arms, scolding Baoyu's master there.Luochun quietly looked at Baoyu from top to bottom, and saw nothing wrong with him, but seeing Jiamu's angry look and looking at Baoyu with distressed eyes, it should be true that Baoyu was beaten, but where did he get beaten? Woolen cloth?

At this time, Yuanyang came over with the ointment in his hand, ready to help Baoyu apply the medicine, but Jia Mu took the wound medicine.Pulling Baoyu's left hand, Jia's mother refused to use someone else's hand, and personally covered Baoyu's slightly red and swollen palm with a thick layer of wound medicine, and then wrapped it tightly with fine gauze. .Weeping while weeping, scolding his master loudly there, saying that he is cruel, ignorant, and ineffective in teaching... Then he somehow blamed Jia Zheng, saying that he, a father, insisted on forcing With Baoyu studying, I will not give up until I force my son to death...

Looking at Baoyu's hand that was completely grown up and wrapped like a rice dumpling, Luochun was speechless. If he didn't know, he thought he had suffered a lot of injuries. In fact, his palm was slightly red and swollen.Mother Jia became angry, and the consequences were serious. Soon, Jia Zheng and his wife, Yingchun, Tanchun and Xichun, Sister Feng and Li Wan all came to visit one after another.Jia's mother scolded Jia Zheng, repeated the statement "the son will kill the grandson", and said that Baoyu was not only injured this time, but more importantly, he was frightened, so he had to rest for a while. Therefore, I will not go to school for the time being.Jia Zheng, who was so blushed by Jia Mu's training, did not dare to say a word of rebuttal, but just nodded in agreement there, and resigned after Jia Mu's anger calmed down a little.Mrs. Wang said "my son", she couldn't help crying while holding Baoyu's tightly wrapped palm, and then kept telling the maids around Baoyu to be careful.When Sister Feng came over, she made a joke and coaxed Jia's mother to lose her temper, and then the matter was revealed.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Luochun felt that it was not easy for Baoyu to grow into this pure and good-looking appearance, and it was the result of burning high incense on Jia's ancestors.Otherwise, just like Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang's doting power, the training process of an ignorant, domineering, bullying dude, if you don't believe it, you can refer to Xue Pan's growth process.Moreover, in the environment of Jia's family, Baoyu didn't grow crooked, which is really unimaginable.

Luochun left Jia Mu's place and went to Mrs. Xing's again.Mrs. Xing had an argument with Jia She, and was pushed to the ground by Jia She. She knocked her head on the marbled leg. Her forehead was injured, and she couldn't go out to meet people until the wound healed, so she has been bored for a while. She didn't stay in the house, so even if she received the news that Baoyu was beaten, she didn't show up.When Luochun came over, Mrs. Xing was ordering the cook to make some snacks for Baoyu to express her greetings and concerns.Sitting with Mrs. Xing for a while, chatting for a while, having dinner at Mrs. Xing's place, Luochun went back.

Although Luochun is the soul of an adult, his body is that of a child.Moreover, the weather was cloudy and cloudy these days, Luo Chun ran around with half-dry hair, not wanting his body to be unable to support himself, and when he returned to his room at night, he immediately felt his nose blocked and dizzy.Seeing this, Pinxiu hurriedly called her to lie down.Yuan only said that the wind blows by chance, it's okay, just drink a bowl of hot ginger soup.He ordered a bowl of hot ginger soup from the kitchen, and after Luo Chun drank it, he covered himself tightly with the quilt and lay down on the bed.In the middle of the night, Pinxiu found that Luochun's whole body was hot, his face was red and his lips were white, and his mind was in a state of laxity.She was so frightened that she hurriedly reported to Jia's mother, invited a doctor to see her overnight, and sent a letter to Mrs. Xing.When Mrs. Xing received the news, she couldn't care about anything at the moment, she rushed over in a hurry, and stood beside Luochun's bed, crying endlessly, refusing to leave no matter what.

With Luochun's illness, he had to lie in bed for three full days before he gradually recovered.It's just that although the fever subsided, the whole body was soft, as if his bones had been pulled out, and he had no strength, so he could only lie on the bed and rest.Just lying in bed all day, Luochun felt dizzy, so she asked Pinxiu to help her sit up.Just sitting up, Luochun felt dizzy, her body swayed back unconsciously, Pinxiu hurriedly took a soft pillow embroidered with red satin rich peonies and placed it behind her, letting her lean on it. Warm tea came over.

Luochun took the tea, took a sip, the curtain of the room was lifted from the outside, Mrs. Xing came into the room surrounded by girls and women, walked to her bed and sat down, reached out and touched Luochun's forehead , felt the temperature of his forehead with the back of his hand, and said with a sigh of relief: "Amitabha, the fever has subsided. You didn't scare me to death."

Luochun smiled weakly, and said weakly: "Mother is so tired that I worry about me, is it my fault..." Mrs. Xing interrupted her angrily, and said angrily: "It's this time, and you still say this Is it true that you came to insult me ​​sincerely?" Shaking his head helplessly at Luochun, he felt distressed and blamed himself, and said: "When the doctor came for diagnosis and treatment, he said that you were thinking too much and that you were exhausted physically and mentally. It's all about me It's not good to be a mother, I can't help you in the mansion, not to mention it, but also burden you, and I tell you all the troubles, I never think about you..." Thinking of myself always complaining to Luochun, Madam Xing Regret surged up in my heart, and I couldn't help crying. Parents have always shielded their children from wind and rain, but she and Luochun turned the other way.

"Mother, it's none of your business. It's really none of your business. I just got sick after washing my hair and running around before it's dry. It's not as serious as what the doctor said." Luo Chun naturally didn't like it. She is willing to let Mrs. Xing take care of everything on herself, not to mention that even if she thinks too much, it is not just for Mrs. Xing's affairs, so she hastened to distinguish.

"Okay, okay, I know your heart." Mrs. Xing wiped her tears with a handkerchief, pointed at the things in the hands of the girls and women behind her and said with a smile: "This is your father who told me that you were sick. Bring you something to make up your body, and your father asked me to tell you if there is anything you want to eat, if you don’t want to ask, just send someone to tell him.”

Seeing the smile on Mrs. Xing's face, Luo Chun was taken aback. Originally, Mrs. Xing had been disheartened towards Jia Amnesty, but looking at the current situation, it seemed that she had revived.But it's also understandable, Luochun's eyes fell on the things in the hands of those girls and women, and there was a wry smile on his face, not to mention Mrs. Xing, she was surprised by Jia She's words and deeds, so she was surprised At the same time, there is still a touch of emotion in my heart.

Jia She is very indifferent to the children under his knees, even Jia Lian doesn't pay much attention to him, so although Luochun tries hard to get closer to Jia She, deep down in his heart, he doesn't expect much from Jia She as a father. Because she has no feelings for Jia She, Luo Chun was at a loss and moved when faced with Jia She's tenderness, but she was more pleased because it proved that her usual efforts were not in vain .

But Mrs. Xing is different. Mrs. Xing is a typical feudal woman.For her, her husband and children are the whole of her life and the meaning of her life.When Mrs. Xing was disappointed in the relationship between Jia She and her husband and wife, she couldn't help but put all her focus on Luo Chun. When she saw Jia She treated Luo Chun like this, she naturally had expectations for Jia She again.Knowing Mrs. Xing's psychology, Luochun couldn't help sighing, suddenly felt that what happened to her was really wrong.
