Sister of the Treasure of the Red Chamber is quitting

After the guests were gone, Jia Mu was also tired, and the mandarin ducks and amber helped her into the inner room to rest one by one.Outside, Mrs. Wang ordered her servants to clean up the mess.There is no need to dismantle tables and the like, but the cups, dishes and spoons must be cleaned by many people.In the past two or three days, Jia's kitchen has poured in and out good ingredients like water, and the dishes are sent out after just one or two mouthfuls. .It's a pity how many people are there by the side of the dark ditch outside to guard against the scorching sun to grab these things and go home. For this reason, they have had several fights with those who come here on weekdays to dig out slops.

Everyone in Jia's family didn't care about life and death, Mrs. Shi's [-]th birthday had four or five days to go before it could be completed. The family was busy and couldn't keep up, and they didn't care about the outside world.The men of Jia's family don't work seriously in the imperial court, and the female family members rarely visit other circles as guests. But the palace still respects simplicity. For this reason, the new empress made repeated orders not to allow extravagance and waste in the harem, and specially opened the palace door to release unknown numbers The maid who passed Huaxin came out.Even today's concubine Yuanchun has lived in the deep palace for a long time and doesn't know what the situation is like at home. Jia's eight or nine days of congratulations are more conspicuous than the royal family, which naturally arouses dissatisfaction from the higher authorities.In addition, someone secretly reported to the public a poem "The Ci" written by the second son of the Rongfu privately, saying that it was full of anti-intentions, and there were many words of resentment and sarcasm.Today, it is reported that the Empress has ordered Jin Yiwei to investigate the case from the third-rank accomplice Shen Yu, only to hide it from the right lord.

Shen Yu didn't feel any surprise when he took over the job from Commander Ma. A few years ago, he knew that the four kings and eight lords in Beijing would have to take turns to be unlucky in the future, sooner or later.The Jia family is just a ruined family and the old department is still there, and they don't know how to cut off their tails to survive and protect themselves as soon as possible.However, what Commander Ma said in his account of the errand was very interesting: "You just go to investigate, and report everything in detail. There is only one, don't startle the snake. If it happens now, it won't happen in the future. With the Emperor, one day, these old people The nobles will still have a chance to recover from the ashes, and you will suffer from it if you beat the snake to death, and you have to figure it out yourself." Shen Yu took the order, and went back to find Liu Zian to discuss and arrange things, and thought about it for a while, Finally, he found an excuse to swim in the lake to enjoy the cool air, passed the message to Baochai, and counted the days, changed into casual clothes and came to pick him up.

You should know that there is a Taiye Pond built in the imperial garden of the imperial city in central Beijing. In order to keep the flowing water from rotting, it was necessary to dig a large lake outside the city called Ze Chi to supply the palace.As time went by, the former Jingzhao Yin had to take labor to repair it every year. He planted willows, phoenix trees, and hibiscus. With the intention of suppressing luck, this big lake was slowly turned into a place to cool off, which is similar to the effect of Xuanwu Lake in Jinling City.The Xue family accepted the post from Shen Yu, and it was dinner time, and the people at the table listened attentively.Baoqin stared at Baochai immediately "hee hee hee hee" and smiled so much that Baochai gritted her teeth and said that she would beat her. In the end, it was Mrs. Xue who had no choice but to break up the lawsuit with the two daughters, that's all.

On the second day, Mrs. Xue arranged for three servant girls, Yinger, Bailu, Bailing, and Madam Su to follow Baochai. an hour.At [-]:[-] p.m., I went out and got on the car to go to Zechi, and arrived at about [-]:[-] p.m.At this time, the sun was extremely strong, so Shen Yu ordered the driver outside to drive straight to a "Lion House" by the lake. There are excellent ice powder fruits here in summer and summer, and the old family in Beijing must go there every few days in summer. Try it at home, and there are many cooks in each family who bought it and imitated it. After all, it is not as good as the taste in this old shop.

A group of people arrived at the side door of the Lion Tower. As soon as the handlebars stopped, a young girl in a white shirt jumped out of the car door and quickly opened the silk umbrella she was holding; another girl in a light green shirt The girl's hands and feet were a little slower, and when she got down, she stood still and reached into the car to help a slim girl with a veiled hat out.Shen Yu handed over the horse to the assistant and drove over to lead the way, and at the end there was another maid supporting an old mother in the car.

Leaving aside the errands here, a pair of tricks must be transparent.This girl looked like she was from a wealthy family, she didn't need to order to enter the side door, she took the less crowded stairs at the back and led the guests directly to the private room on the third floor facing the lake.This room is very elegantly furnished, with orchid and grass stools, bonsai calligraphy and painting, and in the wide hall outside, there is a specially invited master playing the piano slowly and non-stop.Inside and outside the private room, there is a small green gauze cupboard specially set up for maids and mothers to sit and guard. It is just suitable for young men and women who are engaged to be married, or couples who bring their wives out to enjoy the scenery. .

Baochai walked into the room, and then Bailing put away the umbrella and helped the master remove the veil, and retreated into the green gauze cabinet with her arms in her arms.Madam Su brought the egret and stayed outside, and only Yinger followed in to serve.At first glance, the room is not very big, and four blue and white revolving vases one person tall are arranged in each corner, and the insides should be filled with ice, so compared with the scorching sun outside, it seems that the inside of the room is directly inside. Cool as autumn.The staff outside handed the water card to the egret in the green gauze cabinet, and then the egret sent it into the inner room, and returned the order when he came out.Now that Su Momo is getting older, she only confessed: "Don't be greedy for coolness." She followed Baochai to see.

Shen Yu was sitting opposite Baochai, across a table, looking down at what she would say so that no one would be misunderstood, and typed it out when her eyes suddenly turned red. The wooden plate pushed over: "Our girl has never used anything in the restaurant outside as a child, and I don't know what is there, so I should ask Master Shen to do it for me." A few wooden signs were placed on a side plate, and after going out to call the buddy and explaining to him, he turned back.Before he could sit down safely, there was a slight chill in the room. Shen Yu was afraid that Baochai would be cold and refused to say anything, so she reached out to the window and pushed open a thin slit with a brace to fix it, so that she could rest assured.

There was a gust of hot wind outside, and it came in through the cracks in the window. After a circle, it mixed with the original cool air in the room, and it was neither cold nor hot.You can also see the turquoise water of Zechi, which is just right for you to spend the summer and watch the scenery when you have nothing to do.There are two or three-story painted boats floating past on the lake, which can be called "the young man adjusts the ice water, and the beautiful woman snows the lotus roots". To have fun, I have to move aside and let me stay away from the window.

At this time, the waiters outside brought up the dishes, Bai Ling and Bai Lu went back and forth several times to arrange the dishes, Ying'er stood behind and served Baochai with the dishes.Shen Yu had a long entourage by his side, but in order not to offend others, he was sent to stay on the first floor early, so he had no choice but to roll up his sleeves to support him.This restaurant has a kind of ice powder fruit that is very popular among the ladies in Beijing, and all the regular customers will order it eight out of ten.Shen Yu picked up a plum green Ge Kiln shallow cup and opened the small cup on top and handed it to Baochai. Inside was a soft jelly like a clear crystal ball, and the jelly was still shallow from top to bottom. It was dyed with a layer of gradually deepening pink, and it seemed to be wrapped in a white plum that couldn't be opened, and the end was very delicate.

After Baochai looked at it, Shen Yu smiled and said to her, "They made this with Chengfen somehow, and they need to dip it with the sweet brine on the side." Yinger then took a small silver spoon from the side. , took a little bit of brine and poured it on, and the fragrance of the flowers was really strong, sweet and tight.Baochai didn't talk too much, just scratched a piece from the bottom with a spoon and tasted it, then nodded with a smile, "It seems that some brown sugar and mint have been added to it, and the taste is really good. I saw a similar one at Jinling's house last year." Ice powder fruit, go back and ask the chef to try it, whether it’s good or not, at least it’s not too far away.” Seeing that she didn’t hate it, Shen Yu reached out and lifted the lids on the other plates one by one, there were cold dishes and hot food and snacks , simple five or six, and did not make the table full, refreshing and refreshing, people will have an appetite when they see it.Madam Su, who was guarding in the green gauze cupboard outside, and Bailu and Bailing also brought up meals, in short, everything was arranged properly, so there was no need to ask people to spend any more time.

When Baochai saw that Shen Yu didn't have any servants to serve her, she also turned around and sent Ying'er to the Bisha cupboard next to her: "Go and use some ideas, the hotter the summer, the more you can't neglect food and drink, and I'll send you later, come back after eating. " Ying'er was blessed as she said, and then retreated, leaving only two people in the room.Baochai took some for herself, and when she was about seven or eight minutes full, she stopped chopsticks. After sitting quietly for a while, she drank slowly with her teacup in her hand, and then put down the teacup. No need?" Shen Yu coughed, and the back of her neck turned red: "My surname is Shen, and I have a single name named Yu, the second in the family. During the crown ceremony, my grandfather took the name Huaijin. The eldest girl doesn't care how she calls it, just don't call it. My lord, it's weird."

For some reason, Baochai also made this person's ears red, and after drinking some tea, he calmed down and said, "Shen...well, cough cough, what's the matter today?" Shen Yu heard her meaning as if she was fine. As if he wouldn't come to please his fiancée, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and his face was a little embarrassing.Looking up, she saw that the hairpin in her hair was in the middle of her hair, the hairpin she bought personally and was forwarded by Babatuo Xue Pan, and the uneasiness disappeared.He got up and touched the teapot, felt that the tea was a bit cold, so he hurriedly sent it out for a change, sat down again after a lot of tossing, and was still embarrassed to speak when he opened his mouth.

At this time, Baochai had already expected that this person had something to ask, and he seemed hesitant to speak. This matter was probably very difficult for him, so he said to Shen Yu in a slow voice: "But is there any difficulty? Let's start Let’s talk about it, maybe we can discuss it.” Shen Yu coughed and sighed again, and said in a low voice: “Today I just invited the girl out to play, there is only one embarrassment, it’s not appropriate not to say it, I said it And I’m afraid that the girl will be overwhelmed and think that I’m a ‘Zhong Wuyan if there’s something, and Xia Wushuang if nothing’, isn’t it quite unattractive? I can’t make up my mind for a while.” After speaking, he let out a long breath, and raised his eyes again After making up his mind, he continued: "The Xue family has a very close relationship with the Jia family's Ningrong Second Mansion. Now the superior has assigned me an errand to thoroughly investigate the matter of the Jia family's second house brother's inscription against the poem. Will it implicate the girl's family? Earlier I had I made a promise with the girl to keep Xue's family safe, so that now I know how far I have to investigate here. Otherwise, it will be difficult to fold it into the sleeve after I sell it."

Baochai really didn't know about it.In the previous life, how many poems did my uncle take Baoyu outside to chat with those Qingke gentlemen? How did my daughter's family who lived in the garden know? Never would I have imagined that the root cause of Rongfu's failure is here!It's just a crooked poem, and it's just a crooked poem, so people will check it out and get bigger and bigger. It's not that all the crimes and crimes are found out one by one, such as profiteering and exploitation, private cooperation with people's lives, and even the inner shackles. Even if it is done, it cannot be explained to the court officials.His hands trembled in shock, and the Geyao teacup he was holding fell to the ground and shattered.

Shen Yu's face turned pale when she saw her, thinking that maybe she didn't scare people.This kind of catastrophe of family extinction is not something that a girl who has not yet reached her age can bear, she regretted it again in her heart, hurriedly picked up a clean cup, poured hot tea into Baochai's hand, knelt down and looked up Looking at her, she said: "Don't be afraid, there won't be any chaos in the past few years. Even if there is chaos, I will definitely protect you. Today, I just want to remind you. Xue's family is Xue's family, and Jia's family is Jia's family. It has nothing to do with it." Right now." Baochai was in a trance at this moment, remembering that in the previous life when Jia's mansion ransacked the house, the whole family was locked in the house all day long in panic, and they didn't know when the thunder would strike from above. spirit.Seeing Shen Yu squatting in front of him, he was startled and then hid back, hitting the back of the chair with his back and making a loud noise.

Outside, Mother Su coughed and tapped on the shelf of the cabinet. Baochai hurriedly held back her tears and said, "It's nothing. I accidentally bumped my elbow on the table, and I'm so numb." Yinger listened. The girl said so, and hurriedly knocked on the door to come in, but Baochai squeezed her elbow twice before she raised her voice and called in. At this time, Shen Yu had already got up and took half a step back, feeling very uncomfortable.

Ying'er turned sideways to block Baochai, then opened her sleeves to look, and sure enough, her elbow was red, but fortunately it was not swollen, it was probably just a numbness.Seeing that there was nothing serious, Baochai asked her to sit down and eat some fruit. Thinking that the masters had something to say, Ying'er withdrew again.Only then did Baochai and Shen Yuqiang laugh and said, "I was taken aback just now, it was just a joke. But what if the Jia family is convicted?" Seeing her, Shen Yu regained his composure, and a flash of appreciation flashed in his eyes. He sat up straight and replied: "It's not that bad. If there are no other prohibited things, at most it's nothing more than seizing the title. The Jia family's current titles are third rank and first rank, and they are almost out of the mainstream. If you take it, you can't say it. better."

What he said was sincere, and Baochai also nodded: "It is inevitable to turn back and pull back when things happen in the future. Now that the court wants to do it, it must make sense." What she should do now is to protect Xue's family, and do it when Jia's family is in trouble in the future. If you have the ability to make a move, pull it back a little.The things of the previous life are the things of the previous life. She also had a fluke in her heart when she did the time-changing, and she was not innocent; Maliciousness, even myself can't pass this level.With these things that have been done before, there is no one to resent if you get stuck in the quagmire step by step and even die in a foreign country.For today, there is only self-examination, not forgetting the past, and the teacher of the future.For example, if two partners lose money in business, can you blame only one company for their poor methods?If I didn't have my own credulity, I wouldn't have reached this point.It's not that those who have been hurt will turn around and complain, it's just that, instead of blaming others, it's better to see what is wrong with yourself, so as not to let someone lead you into the pit next time.That is to say, it means that one learns one's wisdom.Furthermore, apart from Baoyu, there is no one who has wronged her, and there is nothing wrong with her. It is inevitable that they should stand upright, repay virtue with kindness, and repay grievances with straightness.

Thinking of this, Baochai's heart suddenly brightened, and she became alive like a divine enlightenment, just like the beauty in the ink painting in the distance who turned her back to everyone suddenly came to life, and the light ink color also became bright and beautiful. Go to people.Seeing that Baochai seemed to have changed in an instant, Shen Yu seemed to have finally let go of the burden she had to carry. Although she didn't know the reason, she was only happy for her.

Baochai put the teacup in his hand on the table, and Shen Yu hurriedly exchanged a new tea with her. After seeing that nothing was wrong, she relaxed and said with a smile, "I'll take you out to enjoy the cool air, and if you scare people, I'll just go back. I'm afraid that brother Xue will beat me." Miss Xue replied with a smile: "I'm afraid my elder brother's fists and feet are like a three-year-old child in the eyes of you experts. Ren Ren is just like beating his back and rubbing his shoulders. Turn back Then ask the chef to cook delicious food and send it to you as an apology."

Seeing her smile, Shen Yu knew that she was ready, and took a few steps back to sit on the stool and pushed some fresh fruits forward: "I saw that you didn't use them very much, and you didn't touch these snacks much. Don't you want to taste some more?" Baochai shook her head and said that it was useless, and seeing that Shen Yu didn't need it, she called Ying'er and Bailu to come in and share the untouched fruit.Shen Yu saw another boat passing by outside the window, so she pointed to a few dancers on the bow and mast and said: "This boat belongs to the official family, and there are official prostitutes on it. There are always many who want to seek shelter. Then they fell into the eyes of Jin Yiwei, so they would not be asked to do some dirty and tiring work, and after a few years, when they were old, they would cancel their accounts and then go to a distant place to live with a new identity, it would be better than really ruining people Get into the mud and die." Baochai hadn't heard of this. In the past, the women only said that those criminals whose wives and daughters had been bought or sold in the church would kill themselves early in order to be innocent. It turns out that there is still hope in this desperate situation Tell people to find a way out.As Shen Yu said, he changed his tone and said: "After entering the Jiaofang, there are not many people who can make it to this point. If they are not really wronged or stubborn, I am afraid that they will have sunk early. I hate men who do evil outside, and even bring their family down. The women and children endure hardships with him, and they don't live much better than others on weekdays, so they are scolded all the time." There are always endless stories to tell, and Baochai can't finish hearing them.
