Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

Shi Xiangyun didn't expect that Yi'an would force him to come to the door. He was a little panicked and blushed.But under the watchful eyes of everyone, he was unwilling to lose face and give in. He muttered and was speechless for a while.

Yi'an smiled faintly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes at all.She looked directly at Shi Xiangyun, and asked again with an emphatic tone: "Miss Smith, please repeat what you just said, who does Xiao Dan look like?"

Seeing that Shi Xiangyun didn't dare to speak out, Yi'an sneered and said, "Why, you said it so bluntly just now, why don't you dare to speak now?"

Shi Xiangyun was provoked by this, and he felt ashamed and angry. He raised his head and said, "I told you that Xiaodan looks like Miss Lin. It's just telling the truth, but it's okay. You come to Xingshi to inquire about the crime, because you want to fight Do you bully others with your own identity?"

Yi'an was not angry when he heard this, but a smile appeared on his lips.As soon as Shi Xiangyun finished speaking, he heard an angry shout.

"Xiangyun, shut up!" Mrs. Shihou came late, and she was seated close to the girls. She looked around in confusion when she saw the commotion, but she saw that the place where the girls flocked was exactly where Shi Xiangyun was.Mrs. Shi was startled, and hurried over to check, just in time to hear her say this carelessly, she was so angry that she almost fainted, and hurriedly stopped.

Mrs. Shi stared at Shi Xiangyun resentfully, her eyes burning with anger.I never thought that this damn girl would be so bad-mouthed and say such things!Don't say that Yi'an is the imperial lord of the country, but an ordinary official lady, no, she is a commoner girl, saying these words is a great insult!What is an actor? It's a lowly status in the lower classes. It has the same status as a prostitute. Can it be compared with others?If it was her own daughter who was said that, it would be no wonder if she didn't beat that rotten tongue to pieces!

Mrs. Shi made up her mind that she would not allow Shi Xiangyun to come out after she went back, and would lock herself up at home to do needlework and recite the women's rules until she got married.But at this moment, she wanted to think of a way to smooth over this matter, and make a big deal into a small matter!

So, she smiled all over her face, and said to Yi'an: "Mr. Lin Xiangyun, Xiangyun is ignorant, and she made a slip of the tongue for a while. She has always been careless and careless in everything, and she is the same at home. She often talks nonsense. But it's not Deliberately slander Xiangjun! Lin Xiangjun, you are gentle and magnanimous, no one will praise you, please don't argue with her. I will ask her to make amends with you!"

Shi Xiangyun listened to his aunt's words, but felt even more annoyed, his face was hot, and he bit his lip and refused to apologize.

"Unreasonable?" Followed by the voice, Madam Gao paced over: "It is true that she is ignorant, not only does she not understand common sense, her heart is not right, and she also does not understand the superiority and inferiority!"

Then she raised her voice and said sharply: "Actor is a lowly family, the most inferior thing! My girl is the lady of the Earl's family, the emperor's imperial seal of the township, and the treasure book of the House of Internal Affairs! Smith, you Comparing my girl with an actor is not only an insult to my girl's reputation, but also disrespectful to the emperor!"

She turned to Mrs. Shi with a sneer and said, "It turns out that he is a historian with two lords. No wonder he has such power. Even the emperor doesn't care about it!"

Nanny Gao bowed down to Yi'an again to give her a blessing, and said in a sad tone, "Mr. Xiang, this old slave is guilty! The emperor and the prince trust this old slave, so they sent this old slave to take care of Mr. Xiang. Now Mr. Xiang is being humiliated like this. , It’s the old slave’s dereliction of duty! The old slave will go back and plead guilty to the emperor and the prince!”

Mrs. Shi recognized Nanny Gao and stayed on the spot in astonishment.She came a bit late, didn't see the previous scene, and didn't understand why Nanny Gao called Yi An "my girl", but she knew the weight and background of Nanny Gao, and immediately turned pale, and said in panic: "Mommy, you are serious. How dare the historians disrespect the emperor! It is really because we did not raise our children well and wronged the township lord!"

Turning around, he yelled at Shi Xiangyun: "Xiangyun, hurry up and apologize to the township lord!", his voice was stern, and his face was full of anger.

Shi Xiangyun also knew that something was wrong at this time, his mind went blank, and he said in a trembling voice: "I'm not talking about the Xiangjun, I dare not disrespect the emperor!"

"Then who are you talking about?" Mrs. Chen also arrived at this time. Hearing about Shi Xiangyun's behavior, she couldn't bear the indignation. She stepped forward and asked, "It's not Yi'an, which Miss Lin is that? Can you point it out to me?" !"

"Yes, yes" Shi Xiangyun couldn't tell Ai Ai, apart from Yi'an, who else had the surname Lin?She didn't know, even if she knew, she didn't dare to say it, who wouldn't be annoyed?

Oh, she had a flash of inspiration, isn't there another Miss Lin here?

If you tell her, Yi'an won't bite her, right?As long as she got away, she didn't have time to think about it, and immediately pointed to Lin Daiyu who came with the Jia sisters and Xue Baochai who wanted to persuade her: "I was joking with my sister Lin!"

Lin Daiyu never thought of coming to persuade her with good intentions, but she was blamed on herself.For a moment, as if struck by lightning, he was ashamed and angry, his face was completely pale, and he was trembling and speechless.Tanchun and Baochai supported her from left to right with sharp eyes and quick hands.

"You, you!" Lin Daiyu was about to speak angrily, but was interrupted by Wang Xifeng who was sitting with Mrs. Wang Ziteng and hurried over when she saw something was wrong.

"Yes, yes, Xiangjun and Nanny have misunderstood! They are sisters who are affectionate, and they often joke together when they are together. There is no malice, and no one will take it seriously! Isn't it right, sister Lin?" Wang Xifeng said , looking at Lin Daiyu with regret in his eyes.Seeing Lin Daiyu's expression of unbelievable grief and indignation, she was about to speak, she gritted her teeth, and gave Tanchun a wink: "It's so tiring to stand, take your sister Lin back and sit down!"

As he said, he stepped forward and half supported and half held Lin Daiyu to leave.Tanchun was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, and said softly: "Sister Lin, I have wronged you!" She felt very sorry, but seeing that the Lin family refused to let it go, the historian couldn't explain it.If the emperor blames it, he can't afford it!The four big families are united in the same spirit, one prospers and the other suffers, and the Jia family will suffer from it!

Wang Xifeng persuaded Lin Daiyu in a low voice: "My good sister, go back and my sister-in-law will make amends for you. No matter how you deal with this scene, the younger sister should only see it for the sake of the old lady. The Shi family is the old lady's natal family!"

Tears welled up in Lin Daiyu's eyes, her body was trembling, she bit her lips tightly and remained silent.The sisters of the Jia family couldn't bear it, but at this moment, no one could help her speak, so they had to turn their heads away.

"Is Mrs. Jia thinking that everyone's eyes are bad?" Mrs. Chen refused to let Lin Daiyu swallow this grievance and let Shi Xiangyun get away.She sneered and pointed to the stage: "Look at Xiaodan's appearance and makeup, how is it similar to my niece? Are you bullying a child who has no father and no mother, are you giving excuses to the noble daughter of the Hou family?"

Chen's words were sharp: "My Lin family is a late riser. It's not bad that I have no power or power in the capital. But my Lin family also has the pride of a scholar, so I won't let people bully my daughter for nothing. Today's matter, no matter what Ask for an explanation!"

Mrs. Shi and Wang Xifeng looked at each other and smiled wryly. They could only humbly apologize to Mrs. Chen and Yi'an, while turning their eyes to the people around for help, hoping that someone would come forward to make peace.

"What's the matter?" At this moment of panic, Princess Nan'an came slowly, surrounded by a group of maidservants, and said with a reserved smile: "The concubine sees the noise here, so let me ask, but I Nan'an Palace didn't entertain well, what went wrong?"

Immediately, someone beside her whispered what happened just now in her ear.

Princess Nan'an showed surprise, and couldn't help but glance at Shi Xiangyun and Yi'an.I said in my heart: This is really a mistake, it's a mistake!

The Nan'an Palace was annoyed that the Lin family didn't know how to flatter them. This banquet was originally prepared to embarrass Chen and Yi'an in public and humiliate them in order to gain prestige.Xiao Dan, who sings in an opera, specially chose someone whose appearance is [-]% similar to Yi'an, and after dressing up, she will be [-]% or [-]% like Yi An.At that time, if the concubine or the concubine said this, would the mother and daughter of the Lin family dare to argue with them?Of course, there are other ways to play tricks on them.However, after they met, they understood the emperor's intention to protect the Lin family, and the Nan'an Palace tactfully stopped.Unexpectedly, Lin Yian would not be spared in the end?Oh, what a providence!

Thinking of this, Princess Nan'an glanced at Shi Xiangyun with satisfaction, sighed, and said kindly: "Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Shi, in my opinion, it's just that the little girl is ignorant and outspoken, not malicious As the saying goes, it is better to settle enemies than to end them. Why don't you let Mrs. Smith pay Lin Xiangjun a gift, apologize, and make up! You are all guests of Nan'an Palace, are you willing to give the Palace this face? "

"Of course that's good!" Mrs. Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't wait to say: "Xiangyun should of course apologize to Mr. Lin Xiang!"

"My lord, forgive me for not agreeing!" Chen retorted dissatisfied.She was full of indignation. Wouldn't it be unfair to Yi An to make such a big incident into a small one?Where is Shi Xiangyun's slip of the tongue for a while, it's a vicious heart!

She didn't want to, but she was also worried that Princess Nan'an had said so, and she categorically refused to give others the impression that the Lin family and Yi'an were arrogant and unforgiving.But then she had a sudden change of heart, she would rather be like this than let others insult Yi'an, and she could get away easily.

"Princess Wangfei, everyone has seen what happened just now, and they know the truth! My Lin family never deceives others, but I will never allow others to deceive me!" Chen said firmly.

The atmosphere froze for a while, and Princess Nan'an's face sank, she turned her head and asked Yi'an with a pleasant face: "Mr. Lin, what do you mean? I heard that Miss Smith is related to Mr. Xiang's elder sister, so it is also related to Mr. Xiang. If there is fate, why not turn hostility into friendship and make friends?"

She skipped Nanny Gao and asked Yi An directly, just thinking that Yi An was young and tender, so she must be easy to fool.Just say a few more words later, just coax her to say a word of understanding.After all, Yi'an is Nanny Gao's master in name, and she agreed, and Nanny Gao couldn't say anything more, otherwise, she would be overstepping her master.

Sure enough, Lin Yi'an was inexperienced, and she couldn't lose face. She hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Ms. Smith said that, could it be that she believes in Buddhism?" She sighed, "I heard that Buddhism pays attention to all living beings." Equality, in the eyes of Buddhists, there is no distinction between high and low."

Mrs. Shi's eyes lit up, and she said again and again: "That's right, Xiangyun made a slip of the tongue just because she believed in Buddhism. Mr. Lin Xiang has a lot of adults. From this level, don't blame him!"

"Yi'an!" Shouted Chen in astonishment, she didn't understand why her daughter was like this.Yi'an gestured with her eyes to comfort her mother, and Chen slowly calmed down. She chose to believe in Yi'an, her daughter, who was smart and scheming, not a weak and kind person.

"Miss Smith, is that so?" Yi'an asked Shi Xiangyun again with a calm tone.

"Yes, yes, I believe what is said in the "Diamond Sutra": the world is equal and there is no superiority or inferiority!" Shi Xiangyun has read the book, his mind turned very quickly, and immediately thought of the words in the Buddhist scriptures, which sounded quite reasonable .In this way, it would be fine if the Lin family pursued him closely, but it would appear that his realm was a bit low.

The noble ladies present all wondered, why did Lin Yi'an suddenly become confused, and would be trapped in a cocoon?But just now, isn't she quite sharp-tongued?Her brother is so capable, why is she so easy to fool, it really is not a real brother and sister, that's why they are so far apart?Alas, luck is good!

"Oh, that's how it is!" After listening, Yi'an smiled brightly, "Then I can rest assured!"
