The Hairpin of the Red Chamber

Tanchun's face was pale and he was gasping for breath, he gasped for a long time before he shouted: "If that's the case, Auntie, don't talk about it anymore! Although Huan'er and I were born in Auntie's belly, we are both my wife's children. My wife disciplines me, and I only recognize my wife as a mother! Auntie came to me, and I respect you for my father's sake, not because I came out of your belly, does my aunt understand?"

Aunt Zhao saw that her words became more and more decisive, and she cried and quarreled. Although Tanchun said it harshly, she was her own mother after all, and it was not good to ask others to do it directly. Seeing her disrespect like this, she became more and more angry. I couldn't stop trembling, seeing that Tanchun didn't speak, the waiter went up to help Aunt Zhao up with a few girls, but Aunt Zhao was sitting on the ground, and she was not good at being a big girl to really do something to her aunt. Five people couldn't pull one person up, so Shi Shu just stomped his feet in a hurry and kept winking at Siqi.

Seeing the hustle and bustle here, Yingchun feared that she would be tired. If she wanted to leave directly, she seemed too sorry for Tanchun, because she only stood there, and Siqi was not allowed to help. Siqi saw his master like this, so he had no choice but to stand there , During the stalemate, I suddenly heard someone shouting from outside: "Why is it so unfortunate? The brother Huan outside fell, and the aunt here also fell. Could it be that mother and child are really connected?"

Aunt Zhao's crying stopped abruptly as if someone cut it off.She was still sitting on the ground, stretched her neck out and asked, "What's wrong with my Huan'er?"

But Daiyu and Baochai came in. Daiyu said, "I saw a man fall there just now. His face was covered with blood. He looks like Brother Huan."

Aunt Zhao hurriedly asked, "Where is it?"

Daiyu pointed at one place, and Aunt Zhao was about to get up, but she didn't get up for a while, Shishu quickly pulled her, Aunt Zhao stood up, walked out a few steps, then turned her head to stare at Shishu and the little girls, and walked quickly ran out.

Tanchun was still trembling with anger, but now he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Huan'er?"

Daiyu smiled and said, "Just now I saw a young servant fall and thought it was Brother Huan, but later I found out that it wasn't. It happened that she was making trouble with you, so I just said something casually."

Tan Chunfang sat down with a sullen face, his anger gradually dissipated, he felt depressed, tears came to his eyes, and immediately forced a smile: "I made you laugh."

Daiyu was just passing by, and she was just helping her out. Seeing her appearance, she didn't want to stay for long, so she left. When the meeting came out, she remembered Tanchun again in her heart, walked on the road, and turned around again and again, seeing her temper, Daiyu was really convinced, and called out: "Second sister."

Yingchun stopped in panic and asked, "What?"

Daiyu said: "If the second younger sister can't let the third younger sister go, you can go and talk to her."

Yingchun hurriedly said: "They all live in the same garden and see each other every day. How can there be any saying that you can't let go? Sister Lin is joking." She was afraid of Daiyu's further questioning, so she walked all the way without saying goodbye. Daiyu stood there looking at it for a while, and Baochai said, "What are you thinking about?"

Daiyu said angrily, "I think she has such a temper, no wonder she ended up like that."

Baochai sighed: "Do you think it will be all right if you marry Sun Shaozu? A strong person like Sister Feng, what will happen in the end? What about the third sister? In today's world, as long as you are a woman, you are born to be no match for a man." of."

Seeing her sudden mourning, Daiyu said displeasedly, "Sister Bao, why do you say that? According to what you say, the two of us don't need to do anything."

Baochai said, "That's not entirely true." Then he said, "Dai'er, I think Baoyu is somewhat conceivable. He should know about our affairs, and he knows almost as well..."

Daiyu asked alertly, "What are you going to do?"

Baochai smiled and said, "I don't want to do anything, don't worry about it."

Daiyu snorted, and took a few steps forward, Baochai followed slowly, and said carefully, "After all, we will get along with him in the future, why not... tell him our plan? When the time comes We have us in the inner house, and he has him outside to tell the master that it is better to use two sides to fight against each other than us to fight alone."

Daiyu said: "Okay, after all, you still don't believe me! You want to believe that idiot! What's so good about him? But after a while, you'll be like a treasure."

Baochai asked in surprise, "What did you say? How long has that thing grown?"

Seeing that she had made a slip of the tongue, Daiyu simply raised her head and said, "It's a man's thing. You are a married person, so don't tell me you don't know."

Baochai's face paled, her face was flushed, and she stepped forward to pat Daiyu and said, "My enemy! Don't say that we are still in other people's homes, we are in our own home. Is it easy to say that?"

Daiyu said: "It's a pity that you are still a person who has experienced it. You can't listen to such a sentence. How dare you talk to me about women and men!"

Baochai said: "It's not that I can't hear it, it's that you shouldn't say it--you can see these things for yourself, you know the inside story, just think about it once in your heart, why bother to say it again?"

Daiyu said: "I just want to say, will you listen? If you don't listen, I will leave."

Baochai was really afraid of her left-mindedness, so she stopped quickly and wanted to talk about Baoyu again. Daiyu said: "When he really passes the exam and becomes an official, he can make some suggestions. Let’s talk about it, even if the second uncle is like this now, when the old lady said something, didn’t he cover it up in a desperate way? Last time we made the words so clear and analyzed them so clearly, Baoyu revealed it to him again, you See what he can do! Zuo Buduo gets angry with his uncle a few times, and sits alone in the study for a few days. In the end, what should he do? What's the use of it!"

Baochai was silent, so she said no more.

Since Jia Lian was going to come back, Sister Feng wrote to Wang Ren again, asking him to dig up the old case, and she went to Jing Zhaoyin to bring up the old case again and sue him.

On that day, Jia Lian sent someone to report the letter, and he was happily accompanying Lin Hai into the city. Before he arrived at the Rong Mansion, a yamen servant came to tell him that he would be brought to the case.

Fortunately, Jia Lian was an official, and he was by Lin Hai's side, and after a few conversations, he sent Laixing to the hall to answer. He didn't know where he was going, so Jia Lian put out the second master's money and called the little girl: "Are you all dead? The master returned home and didn't know to inform your grandma? Ask her to come out to welcome her?"

The little girl timidly said: "Second Grandma went out when she got up in the morning, and she is still at the old lady's place. We are just janitors, so we dare not go in and call. I am afraid that the second master will go to the old lady's place to find a sister to pass on the information. That's good."

Just when Jia Lian was in a bad mood, he heard the words and said angrily: "It's unreasonable to ask me to be the husband's master to find her?! I won't go, you go to the old lady's yard to find someone to pass a word, saying that I I'm back, waiting for her here."

Seeing that he insisted on refusing, the little girl had no choice but to go.

It was meal time, and Jia Lian ordered a table of wine and food in the room, cleaning himself up, but the yard was quiet, and even Laixing and Wangertong were not there. He drank a few glasses of wine, felt bored, and fought again. Feeling drunk, he slowly went to Jiamu's place.

In his heart, he was counting on Mother Jia to love him, to give Sister Feng a good lesson, and to tell him to tidy up his husband, how to complain, how to cry, how to accept when he was good, and so on. He had already rehearsed it in his heart. When they got there, before they were notified, the maids said one after another: "Second Mistress is preventing her from going to Second Master, why did Second Master come by himself?" Pushing him and telling him to leave quickly.

Jia Lian didn't know why, so she just thought that Sister Feng was speaking ill of him in front of the old lady, and rushed straight in, scolding some unvirtuous words in her mouth. The servant girls said: "Don't stop him, tell him to come in!"

The maids on both sides stopped, and Jia Lian staggered in. When she entered, she saw Sister Feng throwing herself into Jia Mu's arms with disheveled hair. I'm going to find you! You're going to leave my house with a divorce letter, and we'll have nothing to do with each other from now on!"

Jia Lian was dumbfounded by her words and couldn't react in time. He was hit on the head and face several times. He was also a son and brother who was raised by thousands of people. After being pushed like this, he also lost his temper. When you come back, you will make a fuss about it—is it a divorce letter? I will write it, and you will not regret it!" Without asking why, I asked someone to bring a pen and paper, and the girl on the ground went to persuade Sister Feng. This time, he came to tease Jia Lian in a hurry again.

Sister Feng was crying there again, talking about her usual hard work and how dissolute Jia Lian was. Jia Lian became more and more annoyed when she saw that she had counted herself so badly. , Seven points of falsehood, now it has become five points of sincerity, five points of falsehood, relying on being the eldest grandson, he rolled to Jia Mu in general, and tearfully accused Sister Feng of her immorality.
