Xiaoxiang Water Cloud in the Red Chamber

Knowing the news about Shui Qing, Daiyu was very happy, and finally she could do something for her father, even though the news might not be of much use, at least she did it with her heart, and after this matter, she would no longer need to log in to Jia's family The door is closed.After resting for a long time, I still went back to Huifang Garden, but I didn't see Baoyu. I heard that Baoyu didn't sleep at noon, and I felt sleepy and went to rest.Daiyu quietly moved over and asked, "What's the matter, but is there a problem?"

Ke Qing held up a branch of plain chrysanthemum, pretending to be admiring the flowers, and said, "Just now that Baoyu went to sleep in my house. I don't know who was so ignorant of the idea. He obviously prepared a house for him. Fortunately, he It's fine if he's a child, otherwise there might be some gossip. The strangest thing is that he actually called out my nickname in his dream just now. No one in the whole house has ever known my nickname, so why did he call it out. "

Daiyu let out a soft sigh and said: "It's hard to guarantee that he knows someone who understands you outside. He's so educated and ignorant of anyone. It's useless for you to be suspicious. Just be careful and keep away from him in the future. Maybe it's not sure." It’s unknown if he knows someone with the same name as you.”

Qin Keqing caressed the petals with her bare hands and said: "I hope so. Why can't he come over if he wakes up too? I really don't like him going to my room, but as a junior, I can't say that."

In addition, Bao Yugang and Baochai had a happy conversation, so he couldn't help walking a few more steps. He was originally delicate and expensive, and he seldom exercised, so he became tired and told the old lady to go to rest. A decent and considerate old lady took good care of her, and came to the room prepared for Baoyu. In the room hung a very conspicuous couplet: "An insight into the world is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings is the article." In a word, even though the room is exquisite and the layout is gorgeous, Baoyu will definitely not be here.The old mothers thought about it for a long time, but Baoyu didn't like it here. The only thing better than this is the room of the young lady. After thinking about it, it doesn't matter if Baoyu is a child. Besides, he is the heart of the old lady. It is estimated that he will be the main one, so he did not ask Youshi and Keqing for instructions, but led Baoyu directly to Keqing's bedroom.As soon as Baoyu entered the room, he was dazzled by the exquisiteness of the room, and smelled a thin sweet fragrance, and felt that his eyes were soft, and he laughed and praised: "This place is good."

The old mothers laughed and said: "Our young mistress probably lived in the house of a god. If the second master was not young, he would not have let the second master come. Speaking of which, the second master is about the same age as our young mistress' younger brother, maybe the other one is older. some."

Baoyu said, "Why didn't I see him? You bring him here and let me have a look."

Everyone laughed and said, "Take it there twenty or thirty miles away. I'll see you someday." They said they were waiting for Baoyu to lie down and retreated.Xiren, Meiren, Qingwen, and Sheyue were all accompanied in the room.

In a daze, Baoyu actually came to a blessed land of fairyland. Qi and spiritual energy are all lost, where can he realize it, Jing Huan can only lament his obstinacy, and also lament that everything has deviated from the track set by his previous life, and he really doesn't know how to settle these public cases.

In a dream, Baoyu and Jing Huan's sister, "Ke Qing" from the previous life, appreciates the wind and moon, and feels like a fairy and an illusion. The story of nicknames.

Seeing that Baoyu woke up with fright, the four maids hurried up to hug Baoyu to comfort her. After a long while, Baoyu came to her senses. She still didn't know where she was, and asked hurriedly, "Where is this?"

With tears in his anxious eyes, Xiren said: "Little ancestor, why are you in trouble? Isn't this in Dongfu? You are in Young Mistress Rong's house now. Don't scare me." The man took it and fed Baoyu a few mouthfuls with the spoon, and Baoyu finally came to his senses. He saw Xiren's delicate and gentle face in front of him, his bright black eyes filled with anxiety, and a strand of soft hair hanging down his cheek. , taking advantage of her fair and smooth skin, she held a spoon in her hand and put it into her mouth. That hand was also smooth, fair and soft, with a faint fragrance of a daughter. Suddenly, she remembered the scene in her dream and felt dry mouth. His tongue became dry, and it seemed that even the Anshen Tang could not relieve his dryness.

Xiren held up the spoon for a long time and saw that Baoyu didn't want to drink anymore, thinking that he didn't want to drink anymore, but when he looked up to ask, he saw Baoyu staring at him, with bright fire in his eyes. face.Seeing Xiren's face flushed like a peach blossom, Baoyu gradually spread to the ears and neck, and felt more and more charming. Her heart was beating like a drum, and her voice was a little unsteady: "It's a little hot to have so many people around me." , just leave Xiren to wait on it, you go out and play, I will ask you to call again. Tell them not to rush, I will pass in a while." Qingwen's charming Sheyue agreed and went out.

Xiren felt uneasy, got up and put the soup bowl on the table, turned around and went to the bedside to help Baoyu tidy his clothes, and asked with a smile, "What story did you dream about just now, so scared?"

Baoyu laughed and said, "I can't tell you, but it's a good story." He said it quietly and simply.Xiren was so ashamed that he covered his face and leaned over and smiled. He suddenly remembered Baoyu's expression just now, and suddenly understood something.Seeing Xiren's charming smile, Baoyu always liked Xiren's softness and beauty, but at this moment she became more and more confused, got up and hugged Xiren, whispered a few words in Xiren's ear, and then started to move.Xiren felt that Jia's mother had already given her to Baoyu, so it would not be too polite to do so. Besides, she had long fantasized about staying with Baoyu.The two of them tasted love for the first time, and they both felt sweet and excited in their hearts, but they forgot all the rules and etiquette.But they didn't know that there was a person outside the door who was watching with a sneer, eyes full of contempt, but this person was Qingwen!

That Qingwen is very smart, and she is caring. When she saw that Baoyu's expression was not right, she kept an eye on her and turned back. She secretly picked up the big red flowers and took a look, but she was seeing such a lively and fragrant scene. , Spit a few mouthfuls in my heart.That Xiren is also honest, to do such a dirty thing.Baoyu did the same. He actually put aside all the taboos of being noisy during the day and doing such things in the nephew's and daughter-in-law's house.She spat a few times and turned to leave, but there was a subtle sneer in the corner of her mouth, which was unpredictable.

Baoyu and Xiren had a sneak test, but they were delighted that no one came across them. Since then, Baoyu has treated Xiren more differently than anyone else, and Xiren has treated Baoyu more wholeheartedly.The two returned to Huifang Garden. Seeing that Baoyu was in high spirits, Jia's mother smiled and said, "You've had a good rest. It's been so long since you came. If you don't come again, I'll leave you at home." Baoyu smiled and fell into Jia's mother's arms. Said: "How could the old ancestor ignore me, without me, who will relieve the old ancestor."

Jia Mu smiled and stroked Baoyu and said, "When will you learn your sister Feng's words, it's amazing, what will happen to you when you become a broken man and settle down tomorrow?"

You Shi joked: "Don't worry about Brother Bao, the old ancestor. Brother Bao is out of filial piety. How can Feng girl be so poor-mouthed."

Sister Feng stared at her and said with a smile: "You're getting more and more face. I'm just trying to please my ancestors. It's much better than you staying at home every day. It's too late for my ancestors. Let's go home and ignore her." .”

You Shi laughed and said: "The old ancestor wants to show us some dignity today, and also shut up the mouth of the crazy girl, as if she is the only one in the world who is the most obedient and most filial."

Sister Feng helped Jia Mu with a smile and said, "Let's go home quickly, old ancestor, and ignore her. I have already prepared tender pheasants. If you don't go back, you will be old."

Jia's mother laughed and said, "Don't be discouraged, Brother Zhen and his daughter-in-law. I asked them to prepare dinner. Besides, there are still some things, so I won't eat here."

You Shi laughed and said: "Look at the old ancestor who loves people. There are a hundred Feng girls who are not as careful as the old ancestor. No matter what the old ancestor said, we still feel warm in our hearts."

Mother Jia smiled and was led out of the garden by Sister Feng, and got on her seat and went back to Rongfu.Let's say that Hongyan is over 20 years old, although she is not married, she has never seen anything in the palace, and she can detect the difference between Baoyu and Xiren's expressions when she glances at it, and you can see the wrinkles in their clothes even though they have been carefully adjusted Now, Baoyu's soft and rouge face has a bright brilliance, and that Xiren's eyebrows are full of spring, and the corners of his mouth are smiling, very proud, and his eyes are unconsciously revealing a charming color , then guessed about it, and sneered in his heart, this is the Zanying clan, the elder brother of Twelve Thirteen and a girl do such things in the niece and daughter-in-law's room, but it is unheard of, and I really have learned a lot today.In the future, we must keep that filthy man away from the girl, so as not to stink all over.

Seeing Hongyan's strange expression, Chunxian hurriedly asked, "What are you thinking about, sister?"

Hongyan giggled, and said: "I'm thinking about the two clowns, I'll tell you when I'm free, hehe."

Daiyu and Xueyan were also surprised, so they also asked questions, Hongyan smiled and said: "It's nothing important at all, and I'm not interested in talking about girls."

Daiyu rolled her eyes, seeing Hongyan's expression of secretiveness, she knew that she was the oldest among her maidservants and the most appropriate, she must have felt that she shouldn't tell herself, so she shut up and didn't ask any more questions, and only kept the slightest hint. Curiosity remained in my heart.

After returning to Rongguo Mansion for dinner, Daiyu asked Xueyan to send a message to her brother to tell her brother about today's harvest, and told him that she wanted to go back tomorrow.With a promise, Xueyan flew out of Jia Mu's yard and went to the outer study while taking advantage of the night.Lin Yifei couldn't help being surprised when he saw her, "But what's the matter with my sister?"

Xueyan waved her hand and laughed: "Nothing, the girl got some news today, I don't know if it's useful, let the servants come and tell the young master." She told Yifei what she saw today.

Yifei's eyes brightened immediately, and he said with a smile, "This is good news. Although it's been three or four years, as long as we have this clue and our power, we won't have to worry about finding that Shui Qing. It used to be There is no trace at all, but now I finally have clues, my sister is really smart. By the way, since my sister said to go back, let's go back tomorrow."

Xue Yan wondered: "Why?"

Yifei sneered, his clear eyes were shining brightly, and said: "Now I really know what kind of virtue the Jia family is. Now the boys in the yard are talking about the young master of the Lin family wanting to embezzle the property of the eldest daughter of the Lin family. We didn't I'm here to put up with such remarks. I thought that Jia Lian was a good person even though she was lustful, but in the end she is also here to sow discord between my sister and me, telling me that my father is unfair and gave the family property to someone with a foreign surname , I saw him wrongly."

Xueyan looked cold, and said: "Mrs. Wang must have messed up again. Jia Lian is soft-tempered, so naturally he helped Mrs. Wang. The Xue family couldn't be left behind either. I talked to the girl about a big car at noon. Wanting the girl to stay in Jia's house with her family property, that face on the bright face is good for the girl, I really thought we didn't know what she was planning. After being ashamed of the girl, I went back and started from the young master again. , she really thinks our family is as shameless as theirs."

Lin Yifei didn't know about these things in the inner house, his face turned cold, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Why did Mrs. Wang and Xue Baochai go to chat with my sister so soon, hmph, I think they don't want to live anymore." He said from his sleeve He took out a paper bag and said: "Scatter these things in Xue Baochai and Mrs. Wang's room. Although we can't do anything to them now, we can't let them bully my sister for nothing. Then let my sister go back one day later." , watch a good show tomorrow."

Xueyan took over the doubts and said: "What is this, young master?"

Lin Yifei smiled wickedly: "Red bean powder."

Xueyan snorted and laughed, this young master also knows how to trick people.It turns out that Lin Yifei heard that during the few days he spent with Liu Wuxin, the demon fox with thousands of faces, he had learned some poisonous arts, which may have something to do with his monstrous personality. Therefore, he tinkered with many tricky and weird medicines.Lin Yifei was also a narrow-minded and playful person at heart, so he searched for some of everything, and this "red bean powder" was one of them.Its effect is to make people's body and face covered with small red bumps, which are unbearably itchy.If you show it to the doctor as food-induced wind (food allergy), you will definitely be prescribed a "symptomatic" medicine. For the medicine for treating wind syndrome, the pimple will last for a month, and it is only itchy at first, and then it will suppurate later, and even if it heals, it will leave a scar.But how can anyone let it take a long time to ask a doctor, so the person who takes this medicine will be unlucky for a month, although it will not disfigure it, it is wicked enough.Liu Wuxin gave this medicine an infuriating name "red bean powder", red bean lovesickness, but here it is used to describe the appearance of the pimple.

Xueyan hurriedly put away the medicine carefully, for fear of getting a little bit of it.Say goodbye to Lin Yifei and fly into the night.First came to Mrs. Wang's main room in the backyard, and saw that the lights in the room were dim. Obviously, Mrs. Wang had already fallen asleep. She quietly went to the roof, uncovered the tiles and saw through the starlight that there was only one candle left in the room. Mrs. Wang was sleeping on the roof. On the bed, thinking that she didn't like people in her room, and she didn't have a girl to accompany her in the room, Xue Yan smiled, which saved innocent people from being hurt.Open the medicine and sprinkle it in Mrs. Wang's room. After a while, the medicine will melt into the air without a trace.

When I came to Lixiangyuan, I saw that there was still light in Baochai's house. Xueyan came to the window and saw Baochai and Aunt Xue sitting on the bed talking through the glass window, and the maids were not there.I heard Aunt Xue say: "I didn't expect that Lin girl's step-brother was born like that. I think he looks like a capable person. From that tone, he also loves to study. He wants to take the imperial examination to become an official."

Baochai laughed and said: "What's the use of being capable? Now their family has also lost. It's very difficult for him to stand up in the capital as a white man with no background. Speaking of which, he was born just like Baoyu, but he just looked angry at the book business Quite like, with his temperament, it is difficult to survive in the capital even if the Toad Palace wins. It is a pity for his character."

Aunt Xue said with a smile: "That's not it. Speaking of which, his appearance and appearance are somewhat similar to Lin Ruhai's. Don't tell me he is not a recognized son at all, but an illegitimate child at all. Then Jia Min still thinks that Lin Hai likes her so much, no? Raised a small one outside."

Baochai sighed thoughtfully, then gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "We don't care about that, it's just that today we ran into a setback with Miss Lin, and Chai'er was very angry, a wild woman with no father or mother. That’s all for a child, she’s crazy beyond bounds, and I’ll have to get it back one day. The silver hairpin must be in my hands, so why would she be crazy if she doesn’t have the silver.”

Aunt Xue stroked Baochai's face as smooth as porcelain with a smile, and sighed for a long time: "When my son gets married to the Jia family and finds a way to hold her money in his hands, after all your aunt is stupid and can't even handle a girl. Er is capable. Well, then let your aunt send her an old man as a concubine casually, and you will vent your anger. Chai is so beautiful, Mom really doesn't want you to marry into the Jia family. If she was willing to say a word back then, Why didn't we climb up to Jia's house?"

Xue Baochai's complexion darkened when he thought of the past, and his watery apricot-like eyes shot out a look of deep hatred, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't my brother always like that girl, when the time comes, my daughter will do everything possible to get her to be my brother's pawn." Tongfang girl, at that time let us rub the balls and flatten them, and only then can I relieve the hatred in my heart!"

Xueyan was furious when she heard the truth, and immediately killed the two vicious villains. Seeing that there seemed to be someone in the room next to her, she hurriedly sneaked in, but it was Yinger and Xiangling who were preparing Baochai's bath water. Unexpectedly, the two girls put the medicine directly into Baochai's bath water, and said coldly in their hearts: "Who made you coincidental, today I have a young lady who makes a fragrant bathing soup for you, don't be too flattered."

I was about to pour out all the medicine, and suddenly remembered Baoyu, that Baoyu had ruined the girl's reputation every time, and it would be too unreasonable to spare him, thinking that the snow geese hurriedly stayed a little and came to Baoyu's room, Xiren slept with Baoyu In the house, Xueyan didn't like the two of them, so she was not afraid of hurting the attacker, so she blew the remaining medicine into Baoyu's room, and then went back satisfied.

After entering Daiyu's room, she found that Daiyu was still awake, and she felt a little guilty. She patronized and played, but forgot to reply to the girl. The young master was very happy, and said that with this clue, he would not have to worry about finding Shui Qing, and praised the girl very much."

Daiyu raised her face when she heard this, smiled in her eyes, and said cheerfully: "Finally, my work is not in vain. It's worth it if I have some leisure."

Xueyan pursed her lips and smiled lightly: "Girl, don't be angry, the harvest is much better than that idleness. It's not good for the young master to go back after explaining. Your uncle and uncle have not been here for two days, and they will return tomorrow. Wait until he pays his respects together. Please bear with me for another day."

Daiyu rested her chin on her hand, sighed and muttered: "Okay, brother smelly, you know I don't want to stay here for a moment, and you're still mad at me."

Chunxian laughed and said: "Girl, just lose your temper. I don't believe that you will be able to leave tomorrow. The old lady will still use various reasons to keep you. Then you won't give any face. ? What your grandmother is best at is talking about our wife, and thanks to her, she can say it."

Daiyu sighed sadly, mist formed in her bright eyes under the candlelight, Xueyan was startled, and hurriedly stopped talking.
