Just as he was talking, Gui Liu came.Daiyu asked her, "Where have you been messing around again?"

Guiliu was used to it long ago, so she didn't take it seriously, she smiled and said, "The fourth girl called me over just now. I just finished eating snacks, and I came back." Xiang Yun couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Daiyu asked, "Where are Yanyue and the others?"

Guiliu said: "They're all back, waiting for Yuelan outside, and they said they were going to come and kowtow to the girl before going home. I just said, why does the girl love these hypocrisy? Besides, there are so many people today. It's hot, if there is something smelling on you, swarms of swarms will come, and the girl will not be smoked? The place is narrow..." After saying that, she moved her nose and waved her hands, looking very disgusted.

Xiangyun laughed until he fell down: "Sister Lin, why didn't I know that you have so many live treasures here? It's so fun."

Daiyu sighed: "I knew that this girl was definitely in line with your temperament. She usually acts and talks like Baoyu without latitude and longitude. Now she has caught the eyes of the old lady. She often asks me to take her to talk with you from time to time. It can be seen that Ah, this person's preferences are really determined."

Xiangyun then pulled GUI Liu closer for a closer look, and saw that her complexion was also ordinary, with only a pair of eyes shining brightly like stars in the dark night.Then he teased her and said: "Little girl, I think you are very good, why don't you come with me? I also have a lot of delicious food there." I just heard that she went to Xichun's for snacks, and I thought she was a greedy little girl .

Guiliu blinked: "Miss, wife, and even the old ladies all have good eyesight. They all said I was good, and they always wanted me to go there. I have to serve our girl, so I don't have time. If you like Xiao Girl, that black pigeon is not bad, it's smart and well-born, the girl should watch and take it."

Xiangyun smiled softly, and Daiyu explained to her: "These two never get along. Whenever someone teases her and asks me to ask her to go, she recommends Mo Ge'er." Then she turned to Guiliu and said, " Mo Ge'er has so many things to do in a day, but you are a complete idler, so naturally I should give you to someone first."

Gui Liu grinned: "Miss is not willing to part with me, without me, she can't sleep well."

Xiangyun fell directly from the chair.Daiyu also shook her head and smiled wryly.

All the maids of the Lin family came in to bid farewell to Daiyu. Qing Xiao secretly took her arm and said, "Young lady, let's come home as soon as possible. It's narrow and humid here. How can there be comfort at home? We've made plans. It's summer, young lady The embroidered building is facing the big lake in front of it. When the water wind blows, let alone how clear it is. I still have a lot of things to eat and I haven’t brought them here. I’ll wait for the girl to go back.” Daiyu patted her hand and said, “I know, I know "Xin said, you think I don't want to go back, but this side refuses to let me go.

No matter how reluctantly she had to say goodbye, Mo Ge'er and Gui Liu came to see them out.Along the way, Mo Ge'er whispered a few words to Qing Xiao, Qing Xiao nodded again and again with joy on his face, but he didn't know what good things the two of them said again.

When Guiliu came back, Xiangyun was still looking for her to talk, but she suddenly remembered something and said: "Just now I heard that the master sent someone to tie up the second master Bao and go out. I haven't heard anything yet, could it be? Got someone to send a letter to the old lady?"

Both Daiyu and Xiangyun were startled, Xiangyun said even more urgently: "Ah, you girl, why did you say it so late! No, I have to find the old lady." After saying that, she walked out, Cuimo was in a hurry keep up.Daiyu was at a loss as to what to do, Gui Liu said coolly at the side: "If you should hit, you will hit it, if you shouldn't hit it, you will let it go, why is Miss Shi so anxious? I don't understand, I don't understand..." Looking at Daiyu with her chin resting, Daiyu let out a long sigh and reached out to caress her head.

Xiangyun arrived in Jiamu's courtyard, and sure enough, there was a crowd of crying. Baoyu was carried in prone on the spring stool. Seeing the blood on half of her body, she was so frightened that her face turned pale and her hands trembled. holding her.Jia's mother wept, and Mrs. Wang even cried for Jia Zhu.On the contrary, Li Wan was a little bit embarrassed, seeing her mother-in-law crying for her son's husband who died young, but now she was living a normal life and couldn't think of this person.

She didn't know the years in the Pearl Realm, and the days she spent outside were scattered among the thousands of years of lonely heart and understanding.Jialan Daiyulian to Suyun Biyue are common and new, but this Jiazhu has never been seen for thousands of years.Seeing Mrs. Wang crying at this time, she was stunned, and Yan Momo who came over hurriedly stabbed her with her arm.She thought for a while, then straightened her complexion and turned her face. At first glance, she looked lifeless, but it could also be interpreted as being extremely sad and speechless, and she was considered quick-witted.

When Jia Mu ordered Baoyu to be carried to Yihong Courtyard for resettlement, Li Wan and the others also dispersed.When they arrived in the yard, Madam Yan couldn't help but said: "What happened to grandma just now? Madam is crying like that, grandma just fell to the side in a daze."

Li Wan said with a helpless smile: "It's been so long since everyone has been gone, I really have no tears to shed, I can't cry for a while."

Yan Momo didn't know what to say, so she swallowed and said: "Grandma, this husband is the Lord, so I can't say that again just now! It's like how cold-hearted grandma is to others. Madame needs to know , it's even worse."

Li Wan thought about it and said: "If this is considered cold-hearted, then I really am cold-hearted. ? Coaxing a fool, not to mention that I don’t look like it.”

Yan Momo said: "Then what is propriety? A sage's way is to be virtuous, and he is to be polite, which is just a matter of education. Grandma has always acted according to the rules, why is she so careless today?"

Li Wan sighed and said: "We forcefully use etiquette to designate what people should mourn and how to show their sorrow, but they don't ask their hearts. In time, people only recognize the rituals and forget their hearts." And the leader of the chaos', sure enough!"

Yan Momo was almost speechless, Chang Momo smiled and said: "Grandma didn't know this today, did she? Why did she suddenly become more serious?"

Li Wan smiled: "It's really hard to say what you know and what you don't know. I've been talking about so many things for most of my life, and now I suddenly realize something. There are such things."

Nanny Chang nodded and said, "There is a difference between the so-called 'hearing' and 'understanding'. It's just that grandma forgot that there is another phrase 'harmony with the light'!"

Li Wan smiled, and said: "Sure enough, my mother is very knowledgeable, and since I have no tears, my face is numb and my eyes are dull. It seems like an explanation."

Mother Chang said: "It will be more appropriate if you can put incense in front of the uncle later."

In life, in order to have less troubles and conflicts and more peaceful life, how often do we have to give in to the wishes of others and do things that deceive others, deceive ourselves, others, our ears and eyes, and our eyes and ears to cover up our hearts?In this way, it is indeed a convenient method to use "rituals" to mix together, regardless of whether you are true or false.For example, for the matter at hand, if there is no tablet to enshrine, wouldn't there be more trouble and less shortcut?It can be seen that the bell is often the person who tied the bell.

Sure enough, Mrs. Wang knew that Li Wante came out of the garden again to offer incense in front of Jiazhu's spiritual seat, and she was very calm, but she turned around and said: "Baoyu will die if he is beaten like this. She only remembers self-sorrow, she is really petty. .”

When this word reached Li Wan's ears, she smiled and said to Yan Mama, "Mama Mama is relieved now? No matter what you do, you can't get it right. Mama Mama can also stop thinking about it in the future, isn't it?" Save a lot of effort?" Saying that, Madam Yan also smiled wryly, knowing that no matter how hard she worked on her own side, it would be difficult to untangle this deadlock, so she really didn't have much hope from now on, it's really peace of mind for everyone.

It is also said that Daiyu waited until Baoyu returned to Yihong Courtyard, and when she got the news, she took people over to have a look.Seeing him in such a state, his eyes turned red, and he complained: "It's so good, why did it become like this?" Baoyu was worried that Daiyu would suffer from heatstroke due to the residual heat along the way, and even "it doesn't hurt very much." , Shouting just to coax people" all these words came out.Daiyu felt sad for a while, but also felt powerless—since you are so considerate to me, you should know that taking care of yourself is the first priority; what's the use of being gentle and careless now!

Thinking about it this way, I couldn't even cry, I just felt a dry pain in my heart, angry and powerless.After talking in his mouth for a long time, he said: "In the future, you can change everything." Baoyu has always cited Daiyu as his confidant, and he will not hide it in front of her, so he said: "For these people, I will let you go." It's death, but it's willing." Daiyu burst into tears, but it wasn't because she was sad just now, but because she thought about what Guiliu said, and Baoyu's nature was indeed like this, and if she had her own heart, it would be doomed if she fell deeply in love.I really knew that I saw this dead situation clearly, my heart was empty and hopeless, and I couldn't stop crying.

Baoyu didn't care about the pain in her body, and wanted to get up to comfort her, but she didn't know that this period of thought would start to turn to other places from now on.

When Xiren saw Baoyu's appearance, he became more angry and helpless, and it was difficult to step forward to dissuade him.Xindao kept coming to visit one by one, saying that he was concerned, but in fact it made Baoyu worry, let alone rest.How about the body injury?It's just that Daiyu's identity is there, but there is no room for her to comment.It is also like frying the heart.

Hearing the voices of Baochai and Sister Feng for a moment, Daiyu was in a state of confusion and impatient with Sister Feng's jokes, so she withdrew and went back to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion around the back.

After this commotion, Mother Jia didn't even have much use for food at night, and she was in a mess.Yuanyang saw that Xiangyun was still talking to Baochai, so she lowered her head and asked Jia Mu, "Old lady, where can Miss Yun live this time?" "Squeeze with any sister. Now they all live in the garden, and the space is wider than before, and they can talk easily." Yuanyang got this and went to Sister Feng.

Sister Feng went to their sisters and just mentioned something. Baochai laughed and said, "My place is big, and I heard that you have been cleaned up early in the morning when you want to come. If you don't think it's lonely, you might as well live with me. "Xiangyun was not unhappy, and Yingchun and the others invited him to live with him, but in the end he went to Hengwuyuan.

After arriving at Hengwu Garden, everything was settled, and the two sat down to talk. Baochai said, "Just now, the old lady wants to keep you to live with me. I think, as long as the old lady doesn't keep you, you are probably willing to come. I'm here." Xiangyun then said: "That's needless to say? I just told Xiren that none of these many sisters is better than Sister Bao. If I don't kiss you, who else can I kiss? ?”

Baochai patted her with a smile: "It's still just childish talk."

Xiangyun thought of it and said: "Just now I saw that the old ancestor left a room next to it. The beds are complete, and it looks like there are people living in it every day. When I first saw it, I was taken aback. It was only prepared for me. But it's not like it."

Baochai smiled and said, "That's Sister Lin's room."

Xiangyun was puzzled: "Didn't she live in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, why is she still staying in the room?"

Baochai said: "Although the sisters have gone to live in the garden, they still eat with the old lady. The old lady is afraid that Sister Lin will be weak, so she can rest in the house after breakfast, so that she won't be sick. Hurriedly rushing to the garden is not conducive to maintenance. So I asked someone to rush out of the old lady's room to pack up a room. Ordinary sister Lin occasionally sits and sleeps there."

Xiangyun shook his head and sighed, "It's just one sister Lin."

Mrs. Wang didn't have two mouthfuls of food at night, so she went to the small Buddha hall to kneel and pay respects to the Buddha.Yu Chuan'er greeted Caixia Caiyun and hurried home.When I got home, I didn't care about others, only looking for her sister.Jin Chuan'er just came back from seeing Qingwen at Lai's house. When she saw her younger sister looking for her, she asked, "What's the matter? Could it be that my wife asked me to go back?"

Yu Chuan'er said angrily, "Are you still looking forward to it? If you know that you are looking forward to it, you can save yourself some trouble. Baoyu was beaten today, and he said inside that it was about you. Someone came inside and said that you went outside to talk to Sarah." Running around like a happy man, and arguing with others all day long, obviously full of resentment. I don’t know if my wife has heard, how are you?!”

Jin Chuan'er was at a loss: "What do you mean, I came here by myself, and I have never seen anyone else except Qingwen a few times! Do you think I'm very face-worthy? I have to go around everywhere?! Is this that bastard kid chewing my tongue black-heartedly again? She's the one who looks good when I find out!"

Yu Chuan'er thought for a while and said: "That's it! That's what the chef said. I think it's because you brought Qingwen to our house before, and made the whole family lose a lot of money. There is this. This is right. Today’s words, I heard from the boys, are like the eye drops that Third Master Huan gave in front of the master."

Jin Chuan'er snorted, "You should tell your wife this. The poisonous snakes and scorpions around you don't care about it, but they regard our two gossips as a big deal."

Although Yu Chuan'er also hated Baoyu for bringing her sister into trouble, and Mrs. Wang did not miss the old love, but she often blamed Jin Chuan'er for acting frivolously because of her better birth, which caused today's disaster.Seeing that she was still unrepentant, she cursed bitterly: "Is it possible that someone else stuffed your bad words into your mouth? Once you saw Baoyu, you didn't have a good job. He was still young in the past, and his wife didn't care about it. Now it's not a bump. Did you get on the point of the gun? My lord, did you make a fuss about it? Even if you are dead now, he just wants to have fun with his sisters and sisters in the garden? You are also an innocent daughter, so you are so cheap? !” Without looking at her, Gu Zi ran out.

There has always been Jin Chuan'er, but Yu Chuan'er can't be seen.Today, he was bewitched by his younger sister in such a way.When he came back to his senses, that person had disappeared.I had no choice but to curse bitterly: "Little hoof!" I washed myself and fell asleep.

This sleep is a little trance.In the dream, I only heard a muffled splash, and I don't know how long it had passed, and suddenly I heard someone exclaimed: "It's terrible, Miss Jin Chuan'er jumped into the well." After that, there were many scenes. On the sidelines weeping and cursing; Mrs. Wang also shed two tears and gave silver clothes; Baoyu went to the well of a aunt's nunnery to pay homage...

This matter of life and death is also like a stone falling into a well, but it is only a splash, and it is fleeting.Some people there have already started to go the way of the second grandmother to find Qiao Zong'er who has a tael of silver; after receiving Mrs. Wang's grace, Yu Chuan'er took her monthly money and felt that she was well-behaved, so she let go of her daughter Qu. death; Baoyu scalded his own hand but asked Yu Chuaner if it hurt, his tone and expression were the same as those in front of him back then...

When I wake up, the east is already white.It is especially hard to regain consciousness when lying on the bed—everything is as real as it is, and those characters' actions, speech and voice are all absolutely correct.But it is difficult to tell the truth from the fake for a while.Thinking back to the day when I first came home, I wanted to die several times.I shivered all over, and couldn't help feeling a chill down my back.

Waiting anxiously until dawn, without caring about other things, I washed up and went to find Qingwen.He didn't take two steps to go out, but saw Qingwen hurriedly coming directly opposite.When the two met, they both spoke first: "I tell you..."

After all, Lai's family has a lot of people, and now there is no one else in Jin Chuan'er's house except her, so the two cats entered Jin Chuan'er's bedroom and whispered.Only then did I know that Qingwen also had a strange dream last night.

She dreamed that after a few years, Mrs. Wang found a reason to kick her out.But when she was ill, Baoyu didn't dare to fight too much, so she was sent to the brother and sister-in-law.They swear at each other day by day, not to mention the lack of doctors and medicines, and it is difficult to even ask for saliva.In addition, I was proud and arrogant but suffered from such a calamity, and my heart was so depressed that I couldn't understand it, and gradually became terminally ill. I lay alone on the thin mat on the cold kang for a few days and then died.Baoyu came to visit once before he died.After hearing the news of his death, he shed a few tears and wrote a eulogy.Just a few words of suspicion, in exchange for her death and life, she immediately covered her mouth and begged for forgiveness, just saying "don't mention this again". --that is it.The two brothers and sister-in-law got the money she had saved in those years, so where did they get any sacrifices for the funeral?Hurry up and set it on fire.How much kindness is not reconciled, but a handful of flying ashes.

The two of them were talking about strange dreams, and they were crying, crying and crying, talking and talking, as if they had really died once.After waiting for half a day, they joined hands and expressed some enlightenment.Jin Chuan'er said: "But I figured it out. My own life is only important to me. The others are all fake. When I lose my temper for a while, which one can really miss which one for how long? It's really a death in vain."

Qingwen also said: "Desperately working hard, the tone of the fight, the love, are all false. It is only because I am stupid that I recognize the truth. To live in this world steadily, even if I eat a few more broad beans, that is still true." Okay!" Jin Chuan'er also laughed, and Qingwen said again: "I understand that even if there is a day in the future when I am asked to go in, I will not go. Usually, I just stay inside The deputy lady is honorable. Thinking about it now, she is just a bird raised in a golden cage. What can she do with food, drink and clothes? Life and death are just a matter of words. If you go to tie flowers, you will be served by someone who can embroider. My life is gone, what's the use of thinking that I don't deserve rice or food?!" After saying that, the two held hands and sighed again.

But it was a dream, and the past was abandoned.
