The Hairpin of the Red Chamber

After four o'clock, Sister Feng was still sitting neatly on the couch in the side room.Baochai sat beside her, while Daiyu sat on the east chair——Daiyu was already very sleepy, she was staring in a daze, her head occasionally turned her head down, and she regained consciousness in an instant, while Baochai accompanied her. Watching Sister Feng talking, she couldn't help but glance at Daiyu. Seeing that she was very sleepy, she gave Zicuckoo a wink. Daiyu was so sleepy, but immediately saw Baochai's look, and murmured, "I'm not going." sleep."

Opposite her, Zhang Jing also had his upper eyelids stuck to his lower eyelids. Hearing Daiyu's words, he immediately regained consciousness, opened his eyes and asked, "Brother Pan is back?"

Baochai shook his head, and Zhang Jing felt that his spirit was short again. He tried to open his eyes for a while, and gradually lowered his head again.

Baochai said: "You two go to bed first, Sister Feng and I are waiting here."

She just said something in vain, Zhang Jing immediately shook his head and said, "I'll wait for Brother Pan." Because the words were blatant, he hurriedly added: "He went to that unscrupulous place, I don't know how happy he is, I You have to wait here for him to come back, lest he and others come back to coax me after correcting his confession."

Baochai laughed and said, "If he wants to give a confession, he should be right outside. What's the difference? Otherwise, I'll watch for you. As soon as they come back, I'll send someone to call you. How about it?" Said to Zhang Jing, but she couldn't stop looking at Daiyu, Daiyu kept silent, just stood up with half-closed eyes, walked to this side in a daze, sat on the couch, and fell across Baochai arms.Baochai hurriedly hugged her and told her to lie on his lap. Fang smiled at Sister Feng and said, "Look at Sister Feng, she's over 30, but does she look like an adult at all? That's fine at home, but it's fine when you're outside. In this way, Sister Feng will make a joke."

Daiyu squinted her eyes and said, "Sister Feng is so familiar with us, but you're talking nonsense again." After being pinched by Baochai on the face, she turned her face inward and stretched out her hand to wrap a ring around Baochai's waist. , lying on her side and not moving, Baochai didn't know whether she was asleep or not, so she smiled apologetically at Sister Feng.

Instead, Sister Feng smiled and said to Zhang Jing: "If my sister doesn't mind, why don't you come to this couch too, it's spacious anyway."

Seeing that Sister Feng and Daiyu hadn't come out, Zhang Jing also got on the couch. Sister Feng asked her to lie down inside, and asked Xiaohong to take two thin quilts, which she covered for Zhang Jing, and Baochai covered for Daiyu. .

Baochai and Sister Feng were originally talking about each other, but when the old stories were finished, they talked about their experience and household affairs over the past ten years. When Zhang Jing and Daiyu came up, Baochai's voice died down. She was only thinking about Daiyu, tucking the quilt for her for a while, looking at her profile, and smiling silly at her again. When Sister Feng spoke, she only heard one sentence out of two or three, and Sister Feng consciously shut it down. Mouth, think about it for a while, ask Xiaohong to go to the door to have a look, think for a while, go to urge Xiaohong again, Baochai saw that she was restless, and said softly: "Sister Feng, why don't you just ask a man to go outside to inquire about the situation?" stop."

But Sister Feng shook her head again and said: "In case they haven't done anything yet, they will send people out this evening, and there will be traces." Because she ordered Xiaohong to come and change a pot of tea, she also asked to serve refreshments such as desserts and fruits again. Seeing that there was a plate of melon seeds in it, Chai reached out and grabbed a handful, slowly peeled one by one and put them on the plate.

Sister Feng knew that she was stripped by Daiyu, so she stripped it without saying a word.

When the two of them were about to finish peeling a plate of melon seeds, Fang heard some movement outside the door. After waiting for a while, he saw Xiaohong leading Ping'er in. Ping'er undressed with one hand and walked in gently. After taking her clothes and shaking them, she saw that a navy blue coat was covered with dust, and when she looked closely, she saw a tear at the heart. It was still the same as when she went out, and there was no blood on her body, so Fang felt relieved, and finally felt awakened, so she inevitably glanced at Daiyu again, but Daiyu had already been awakened by Baochai, and before she opened her eyes, she asked Ping'er first: "Did that happen too?"

Sister Feng was startled, not knowing what she was talking about, Ping'er nodded, and said happily: "It's done, thank you Miss Lin."

Sister Feng raised her willow eyebrows, her thoughts were concealed, she just said to Baochai, Daiyu and Zhang Jing lightly: "The matter is done, and we have to go on the road tomorrow. You should go and settle it sooner."

Knowing that she was in a hurry to ask Ping'er, Baochai took Daiyu with one hand, let Zijuan support Zhang Jing, and the four of them went out hand in hand.Sister Feng sent Xiaohong out again, and when everyone had left, she closed the door. Seeing this posture, Ping'er knew something was wrong, so she took a step ahead and said with a smile, "Feng'er, I miss you so much." He hugged her, half-dragged and half-hugged her to the couch, and hurriedly used that verbal sword to come out, so as to fill up Sister Feng's mouth first, who would have thought that Sister Feng would strip her clothes all over again. , exposed her naked to the room, and saw that there was no new scar on her body, she was completely relieved, but her face sank, and she sternly said: "You just flirted with Daiyu, what did you say? The moon is gone, and the skin is itchy? There is still something to hide from me!"

Ping'er begged for forgiveness, "Because Baochai and the others have also done some business, I didn't hide it from you when I discussed some business matters with them."

When Sister Feng didn't believe it, she sneered and said, "I don't know anything about your business? The official business they do is reselling some raw silk and cloth, and Jia Lian takes care of it full-time. What has it to do with our family?" ?”

Ping'er laughed and said: "I think the cost of buying and selling goods in the south is too high, and the trees attract the wind, and we have been away from Beijing for a long time, so we don't know what the north likes. In the past two years, relying on the old relationship in the past, we can still sell them. In [-], the fashionable things changed again, and those old relationships were gradually lost, and it would be bad if the goods could not be sold, so it is better to collect them, and buy some land to make a family, which is also a century-old foundation."

Sister Feng sneered and said, "For people like us, what are you talking about with a century-old foundation? Do you really think of yourself as a man?"

Ping'er smiled, but said nothing.When Sister Feng was told by her, her suspicions disappeared, but she complained to Daiyu, saying: "Why don't you tell us to take risks? In fact, you are not called to be bait? You pretend to come back from outside and wait for him at home with me. Isn't it the same?"

Ping'er said: "Although I came back alone, there are so many people ambushing behind me. The house is so small, you can't hide a few people if you wait here. Besides, I wandered outside the city for so long to let people find out. , That’s the enemy’s darkness and our light, you are at home, but you don’t know when they will come to the door, but it’s the enemy’s light and our darkness, how can it be the same?”

Sister Feng couldn't argue with her, so she pinched her waist angrily and said, "You know how to help outsiders!" Just as Xiaohong fetched water, she Zhang Luo wiped Ping'er's body, and Ping'er was hungry. Fortunately, Sister Feng had asked the kitchen to prepare a bowl of hot noodles. After Ping'er had eaten, it was already slightly bright, so the two of them did not go back to the house, but lay down on the couch for a while, listening to Xue Pan's words. The officer came over and said that Xue Pan was going back to Fucheng at the time of Chen, and hastened to deal with the matter of Boluo County Magistrate, so as not to let others know and betray him in vain.

Ping'er was about to get up, and Sister Feng said, "Where is Chen Shi, what are you in a hurry for? If you lie down for a while, you won't be broken."

Ping'er said: "Let me see if the things at home are packed."

Sister Feng said: "Sooner or later, I asked them to pack it up. Now that the car is packed, you still need to take care of it?"

Ping'er said again: "Then I'll ask them to bring a basket of lychees for you to eat on the way."

Sister Feng pouted and said, "There are also lychees and dry food. You can just lie down in peace."

Not long after lying down, Ping'er closed his eyes and asked, "Did you take the box under the bed?"

Sister Feng said: "Bring it."

Ping'er asked a few words, Fang slowly said: "There is a sandalwood makeup box among the things I brought back yesterday, have you taken that too?"

Sister Feng stopped for a while, and then said: "Take it, you can sleep peacefully, and I will call you later."

Ping'er was also really sleepy, and when she heard Sister Feng calling her, she gradually fell into a deep sleep. When she woke up again, it was already high in the sun, and she was in a rumbling carriage. After getting ready to go on the road, he slept peacefully again and woke up at night, but this time he was not in the car, so he asked with a smile, "Where did you go?"

Sister Feng stared at her for a while, then Fang said: "You don't even know your own manor?"

Startled, Ping'er got up and saw the decorations everywhere, clearly still in Boluo. He turned his head and asked Sister Feng, "...Feng'er, what's going on?"
