The Hairpin of the Red Chamber

When Sister Feng set off, it really snowed.But it is not the kind of heavy snow that is sprinkled with salt in the north, but thin snow that melts into water when it hits the ground.

Sister Feng was wearing shackles, one foot was high and the other was low, and she followed the escort. Ping'er was standing at the intersection in a cotton dress.She took a ten-year-old girl with her, a strong woman in her forties, and Wang Wu with two male servants. There were five masters and servants. They hired two large carts, one for luggage and one for luggage There are people in the car, and there are five big mules that the family raises themselves. Wang Wu and the two male servants rode three, and they also led two, but there was also a warm sedan chair.

When Sister Feng saw the sedan chair, she knew that she had hired it for herself, and she only had eyes for the tolerance.The two tolerances had been instructed earlier, so they didn't rush Sister Feng hard when they left the city. When they saw that there were indeed people waiting here, and saw that the two mules were clearly prepared for themselves, they lost their eyes with laughter, but they still acted authentically. : "Send off quickly, and there must be no delay."

Ping'er winked at Wang Wu, Wang Wu came up to make amends, and came out with a few pieces of broken silver in his sleeve, and said something about walking together, the two of them collected the money, and Fang came over to remove the shackles on Sister Feng, Ping'er first helped her into the car and changed the old clothes, wrapped Sister Feng in a fox fur coat, and passed a stove in her arms. When she was about to send her to the sedan chair, Sister Feng said: " I don't like sitting in a sedan chair, it's wobbly and annoying, so I'll just ride with you."

Ping'er said: "This car is not as bumpy as our previous car, and the canopy is not warm. It is not as good as a sedan chair. Anyway, I have hired it. The girl should go there."

Sister Feng stared at her and said, "Could it be that you don't pay attention to me because you saw me being exiled? Don't you listen to what I say?"

Seeing her acting, Ping'er had no choice but to agree to it for the time being, and was ready to persuade her again, but Sister Feng didn't know which temper broke out, and forced Ping'er to send the bearer back, insisting that she sit with her--Sister Feng looked at how many people there were left yesterday. His voice was low, but today he was arrogant again, disgusted that the car was too crowded, so he forced the maid and the mother-in-law to sit outside the car and sit with the driver.

Ping'er had no choice but to tell Wang Wu to hire another car at the next post station, and sit in it by herself. She thought that it was inevitable that Sister Feng would suffer from depression, so she could only be more considerate and not add to her troubles, so Compared with before, she is more pleasing to the eye, and always puts Sister Feng first.After talking with Sister Feng for a while, seeing her feet leaning on the stool, she changed her shoes for Sister Feng, loosened her clothes, and asked her to sit against the wall of the car. When she took off her socks again, Sister Feng put her feet away. "I'll sleep for a while, but if you pinch my feet, I won't be able to sleep." Afraid of Ping'er's stubbornness, he hurriedly closed his eyes, fell back, and pretended to be asleep.

Ping'er said: "The girl wants to sleep. I'll put the bedding on the bed. Wouldn't it be good for the girl to lie down and sleep? Why do you have to look like this? If the car bumps in a while, don't knock your head."

Sister Feng closed her eyes and said, "Then make your bed quickly." Suddenly she remembered something, opened her eyes and smiled and said, "This car is so small, you have made your bed, where do you want to sit?"

Ping'er said, "I'll go outside and talk to them."

Sister Feng narrowed her eyes, raised her chin, and said, "You are not allowed to go out."

Ping'er blinked and said: "Then I'll sleep with the girl." When he said this, he clearly had a smile in his eyes, but his face was serious. Sister Feng was stunned for a long time without seeing her playful appearance, and then immediately returned She closed her eyes and said, "I'm really sleepy. If I want to sleep, don't think about it."

Ping'er laughed and said: "I also know that the girl is really sleepy and wants to sleep, so I didn't think much about it." Even so, her eyes were full of teasing, and Sister Feng spat at her in hatred, and said, "Go!"

Ping'er asked to stop outside, opened the door and went out, took things from the car behind, covered the whole car softly, sent Sister Feng to sleep, and lay on the side with her clothes.

When Sister Feng saw that many things were used at home, she couldn't help being sentimental. Seeing that Ping'er didn't change her clothes, she pulled her sleeves and said, "Why are you still wearing clothes? Isn't it hot?"

Ping'er laughed and said: "What's the matter along the way, they will inevitably come to ask me, if you want to eat and use it, I'm afraid I will do it, take off your clothes, and put them on in a short time, come and go trouble."

Sister Feng gave up after listening.At first she said that sleeping was just an excuse, but now she was really sleepy, but she was finally able to be with Ping'er, and she was a little reluctant to sleep like this, so she grabbed Ping'er's hand and said, "How are you doing these days? Is that enough?"

Ping'er smiled, and said slowly: "That's it. The money is not too much, and it is enough for the girl. Girl, don't worry."

Sister Feng said: "You have enough money to spend, and the management is smooth. Why don't you come to see me sooner? You don't know how hard I am in prison."

Ping'er held her hand and said: "I didn't think carefully and wronged you, and I won't do it in the future."

Sister Feng suddenly turned sideways, looked at her and complained half-truthfully: "I haven't seen you all this time, and I thought you betrayed me and wanted to run away with your own money. At that time, I thought, if you really run away, I will definitely blame you for everything!"

Ping'er said: "Push it on my head, will you be fine? If so, why didn't you say it earlier?"

Sister Feng was startled, and immediately rolled her eyes, and said, "Do you think those people are fools? You are a slave born in the family, and you can do so many things? Besides, there are witnesses everywhere who give gifts and handle affairs, and there are many others that I will give away." Guan Ping, I'm going to put the whole thing on you, and I need people to believe me!" Then he said: "You don't have to be so busy proving your loyalty, I know your heart, you are willing to take care of me like this, it's already very good alright."

The latter sentence was spoken politely, Ping'er felt uncomfortable hearing it, so he stretched out his hand to pat her and said, "Go to sleep."

Sister Feng couldn't keep her eyes open, she was still thinking about other things, and asked: "You said my brother arranged for me to be exiled? Even if he has a little conscience, you will give him whatever he spent. I don't owe him anything."

Ping'er hummed, patted her hand and said, "I'll give it all to him."

Sister Feng said again: "Why is there no one else to see me off except you? Do my mother and others know that I am leaving today?"

Ping'er said: "They have just been released from the prison. There are many things at home, so they probably can't make it in time."

Sister Feng said angrily: "They have been out for several months, no matter how many things there are, it should be settled? Why don't you even have this little time?"

Seeing that she was upset, Ping'er quickly comforted her: "They knew that I was with you, so they all sent people to deliver things. I will keep them for you and show them to you when I get there."

Sister Feng opened her eyes again and said, "What did they give?"

Ping'er murmured: "Zuo are just some patented medicines, tonics, and food and clothing on the road. I told them that it's just to show my heart by giving them something."

Sister Feng just gave up after hearing this, and lay down in a daze for a while. Ping'er thought she was asleep and was about to get up and go out secretly, but she heard Sister Feng say again: "Ping'er, they all lied to me, you won't lie to me." ,right?"

Ping'er was startled, and after a while he said: "I always treat girls wholeheartedly."

Sister Feng said: "Don't call me a girl, I'm not a girl anymore, you call me Feng'er as before."

Ping'er was silent for a while, and Sister Feng said slightly annoyed again: "Why, you think I'm a sinner and you don't want to get close to me?"

Ping'er hurriedly said: "It's not... I, I just thought, if I call you that, I'm afraid that others will know about the two of us."

Sister Feng sneered and said: "It's just a title, what can it mean? Besides, my family already knows about the two of us, so there is nothing to hide."

Ping'er said awkwardly: "Not everyone knows, the uncle only found out later."

Sister Feng suddenly opened her eyes and said with a smile, "Oh, when did the uncle know about it?"

Ping'er turned away from looking at her, and said slowly: "Your uncle only found out not long after you were imprisoned, and entrusted me to take care of you."

Sister Feng said: "You made it up like that at first, but now the more you talk about it, the more it doesn't look like it. He's not in the same room with us. How did he know about us? With his temperament, it's fine if you ask for money. , still want me?"

Ping'er's heart skipped a beat, and he forced a smile and said, "After all, brothers and sisters are by nature, uncle is not as bad as you think."

Sister Feng snorted, "Ping'er, don't lie to me."

Ping'er smiled and said, "I didn't lie to you, the uncle really misses you."

Sister Feng turned over, lay half on Ping'er's body, stared at her and said, "Missing me, or my money?"

Ping'er couldn't help laughing.
