Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

Shi Xiangyun came with his two aunts, and was delayed on the way for a while.After paying respects to Concubine Nan'an and Princess Wang, I am going to go out for a walk.As soon as she walked out of the flower hall, she saw Miss Shi wiping her tears, walking sobbing all the way, and the maid beside her kept persuading her.

Unlike the girls in Jia's family who can only visit relatives, Shi Xiangyun's aunt will take her out to socialize from time to time.She and Miss Shi met at a birthday party. The two had similar circumstances at home.

Seeing Miss Shi like this, Shi Xiangyun quickly grabbed her and asked, "Sister Shi, what's wrong with you? What is so sad?"

"Miss Smith, you don't know, my girl has been bullied!" The maid next to her hurriedly defended her master's injustice, embellishing what happened just now, omitting of course Miss Shi's provocative and mean words, and finally said : "Relying on her own status as the township monarch, Miss Lin is arrogant, and she wants to force my girl to kneel down and salute her! She is also mean to my girl, saying that our Duke's Mansion wants to marry her brother, and her family will watch it." No way!"

"Don't talk about it, Shanhu," Miss Shi wiped her tears and said, "Who told her that she has the status of a country lord? The father and brother in the family are gaining power, and we poor people can't afford it!"

Wilder Berlin home!Shi Xiangyun is no stranger to this title.When she was in Jia's house, she had heard from attackers that the son of this family, Lin Ming'an, was originally Miss Lin Daiyu's adoptive brother. Because of the enmity between her biological mother and the deceased Mrs. Min, she had always held a grudge against the Jia family.It happened to him that he was lucky, passed the exam and was appreciated by the emperor, and his family became rich because of this.The old lady thought that after all he was related to Uncle Lin by blood, and for Miss Lin's sake, she took the initiative to resolve the knot and let everyone get closer.Unexpectedly, he didn't appreciate it at all, and even ran on the second master in front of the minister of the Ministry of Industry, which caused the second master to be reprimanded by his superiors.Even his mother-in-law, who came to deliver things to Miss Lin in a big way, refused to pay attention to the reward when the old lady summoned her!

Shi Xiangyun went to Rongguo Mansion all the year round, and was very close to his aunt and grandmother. He was very angry when he heard it, and he was very disgusted with Lin Ming'an's family.She didn't like Lin Daiyu either. She was so delicate all day long, and she shed tears at every turn, as if she had been wronged so much.The most hateful thing is her pretentiousness, which makes Brother Bao worry about her, and is so attentive to her!Hmph, I heard that her father donated his family property before his death. This clearly shows that he doesn't trust his great-aunt!Thanks to my aunt and grandmother for taking in his daughter!Her family's housekeeper is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he is always on guard against his aunt's house!

A few days ago, Shi Xiangyun heard from his mother that his uncle and aunt intended to marry Lin Ming'an's family, and wanted his cousins ​​to marry Lin Ming'an's younger sister, Lin Yi'an.It is said that the woman has the rank of a township monarch and is supported by the court.The family is thriving again, although they didn't have much foundation before, their father and brother have earned titles and good official positions through their abilities, especially Lin Ming'an, who is very good at making money, earning income from several kinds of livelihoods, and now the family is very rich.I heard that Lin Yi'an was very much loved by his father and brother at home. If his son could marry her, not to mention the extremely rich dowry, for her sake, the Lin family father and son would have to support and support their son.Besides, Lin Yi'an is also beautiful and capable. He is well-versed in literature and housekeeping, so he is really a good candidate for a daughter-in-law.

She had heard all these compliments, but it was only a matter of fact. When my aunt talked about the benefits of marrying Lin Yi'an, she said that although her family was just a new rich family, marrying her was much better than those pompous ladies.He also used himself as a comparison, saying that Xiangyun in our family is the daughter of the Hou family, but his parents are gone, which is not auspicious.The historians are not as prosperous as before, and the careers of the gentlemen are not going well, how can they take care of their nieces and sons-in-law, even their own sons-in-law!The income of the family is not as good as every year. When Xiangyun gets married, they can't add much dowry, so they can only give her the dowry left by the sister-in-law.There are quite a lot of noble girls like Xiangyun in the capital, except for a name, how can there be Yi'an benefits!

These words, my aunt said to her confidant nanny, who overheard her.Hearing the nanny's unjust words for her, Shi Xiangyun was full of resentment, but what could she do to her aunt?She still wants to live in the historian's house, so she just pretends not to know.However, she inexplicably developed an aversion to Lin Yi'an.

By the way, the uncle and aunt also mentioned Jia's sisters and themselves, hoping to make a match with Lin Ming'an.Of course, their main hope is Lin Yian.

Unexpectedly, the Lin family rejected them all without leaving any room.Shi Xiangyun originally wanted to be able to form a pair with Brother Bao, but she still felt that her dignity was bruised when she was rejected.Then Lin Mingan must think like his aunt, so he looks down on himself and the sisters of the Jia family?After the marriage proposal failed, my aunt complained all day long, saying that her cousin was disliked by others because of the family's downfall.

So, even though he had never been plain, Shi Xiangyun secretly developed a strong dislike for the Lin family brothers and sisters deep in his heart.

At this moment, listening to Miss Shi's cry, she even aroused the resentment buried in her heart, and attacked Lin Yi together righteously: "It's really arrogant and arrogant, someone really deserves a good lesson!"

The two hit it off immediately, and cursed a few more words, before they could go to the garden, they saw the servant girl from Nan'an Palace come to invite them to listen to the opera, and they went back to the flower hall together.After a while, Jia Jia Sanchun and Xue Baochai also came in, and Shi Xiangyun hurried forward to greet them.

While talking and laughing, Shi Xiangyun couldn't help mentioning the dispute in the garden, contemptuously criticizing Yi'an in his words.Everyone didn't understand why she had such an attitude towards Yi'an, remembering that when they saw her just now, she seemed to be with Miss Shi, and they all felt a little inappropriate.

Xue Baochai shook her head and persuaded: "Sister Yun, you haven't seen the situation at that time, so you can't explain it in a word, and you can't slap it. Besides, this has nothing to do with you, let's sit down and listen to the show!"

Just as they were talking, Lin Daiyu and Yi'an came together, Jia Tanchun quickly invited Yi'an to sit down together, and also wanted to take the opportunity to have a chat with Yi'an, improve their relationship, and let her get closer to the Jia family.Yi'an saw that Mrs. Chen was sitting with other wives, and the young ladies gathered together in twos and threes. Tanchun took the initiative to invite her, and it was inconvenient to refuse.So, looking at Daiyu's face, she said "excuse me", and sat down graciously.

When Shi Xiangyun saw that Yijian was dressed up brightly and radiantly, but he was still wearing old clothes from last year, which were inferior in material and style, he felt a little disappointed in his heart.

Tanchun asked Yi'an what she does at home every day. Is it boring to have only one girl in the house? Why not come and find Sister Lin to play with us when you have nothing to do?

Yi'an smiled and said that she had to study with the foster mother every day, read and write in her spare time, take care of the family business with her mother, go for a walk, and decorate the room. One day passed.My brother often brings her all kinds of fun things and books for entertainment, and often goes to dinners with his mother, so he is not bored at all and has no time.

A speech that makes people think about it.Lin Daiyu sees that Yi'an has a family that loves her, and thinks of Lin Ming'an's entanglement with her parents. status, they can go in and out of society, and their sisters are only at home every day, at most they go to relatives' homes.I heard that there are many people who are matchmakers for the brothers and sisters of the Lin family. Yi'an is about the same age as himself, but he still doesn't know where his life will end up?More importantly, in such a comparison, she could clearly feel the decline of the Jia family, and she felt sad.

Shi Xiangyun, however, remembered that he was doing female red needlework all day long at the request of his aunt, and that the clothes, shoes and socks at home were made by the female family members themselves.Although my aunt and cousins ​​also did it together, but it is tiring and boring, how can I be as carefree as Yi An!

At the same time, a young girl, why does Yi'an have everything, riches and splendor, loved by her parents and brothers, and beautiful, so she can be so defiant?

Jealous in his heart, his face inevitably showed some color, and his tone was stinging.Yi'an naturally heard it, and was angry in her heart. She simply turned around and talked to Lin Daiyu and the others, ignoring her.

Shi Xiangyun was even more angry when he saw that Yi'an didn't take himself seriously, and that Tanchun and others were courteous to Yi'an, and sat aside with a stern face.After a while, he felt bored, so he simply invited someone to sit with Miss Shi, and the two of them whispered together.

Xue Baochai looked at Shi Xiangyun and sighed.That Miss Shi is a narrow-minded and dishonest person. The key point is that this person is not on the stage and has no strength. Why does Xiangyun get involved with her and offend Yi'an?How unwise!I hope she can stop being willful and reckless, neither Yi'an nor the Lin family are easy to mess with!They are not false to the Jia family and the Shi family, let alone the even more declining historians!

Can often worry about what will happen.

Once the play was over, everyone applauded and asked the maids around them to give rewards to the troupe.

Miss Shi suddenly took a closer look at Xiaodan on the stage, and with a thought, she smiled and said to Shi Xiangyun: "Yun'er, you see that Xiaodan looks familiar, who does she look like?" She held her forehead and thought carefully .

"I can tell, isn't that like Miss Lin?" Shi Xiangyun interjected.The voice was not low, and the girls who came to the banquet could hear it clearly.Everyone was stunned by these words, for a while, half of the flower hall was quiet.Everyone looked at Shi Xiangyun who was talking in surprise, then looked at Xiaodan, and finally turned their eyes to the table of Yi'an, Daiyu, and Jia's family.

Tanchun's eyes darkened, and he hated Shi Xiangyun for a moment.This offends Yi'an to death, but Shi Xiangyun is related to Jia's family, what should I do?

Yi'an's eyes turned cold, and he stood up in front of everyone's eyes, slowly straightened his dress, walked gracefully to Shi Xiangyun's table, and said loudly: "Miss Shi, I didn't understand just now. Please say it again , who does Xiao Dan look like?"
