[Red Mansions] Why does Xiaoye want to whitewash

"Is my aunt seriously ill?"

"It's more serious than before," Mr. Lin said with a bitter face, "That's why the master asked me to come over and ask the old doctor to take a look."

Today when they went to see Peach Blossom, the old doctor also went. At this time, Jia Lian turned around and saw the old man getting off the carriage at the back, so he walked over to help the man and said as he walked: "Master, my aunt's condition is getting worse, I want to trouble you You go there..."

Seeing a doctor is a serious matter, so the old doctor nodded immediately after hearing this, and then asked Mrs. Lin: "Is Mrs. Lin serious? Do you want to hurry there now?"

Butler Lin quickly shook his head, gratefully said: "It's not too late, we can hurry tomorrow, but it will make you tired."

"Should be."

Now that the decision has been made, Jia Lian quickly asked the old doctor and Lin Ke to rest, and arranged a place for Housekeeper Lin and the others.Originally, it was a day of tossing around today, if you don't rest well, you will rush on your way tomorrow, and it will be bad if you run around and have problems.

When everything was arranged properly, Wang Xifeng moved her neck back and forth, and asked Jia Lian worriedly: "Do we need to go back and have a look?"

"I can't just leave my post without permission." Jia Lian frowned and looked at Wang Xifeng, "I can only make a trip for you."

Wang Xifeng nodded slowly, "It's hard work, this is my aunt. Besides, we are so close, it would be rude not to go. I will know how my aunt is doing after I go there with my own eyes. You can rest assured."

Speaking of this, they naturally couldn't sit still, and Wang Xifeng didn't know how long they would stay in Yangzhou this time, so the two of them didn't sleep at all, and started packing the things Wang Xifeng wanted to bring when they got up.

"Why don't you bring the eldest sister?" Jia Lian paused, suddenly thinking that with Lin Daiyu's temperament, how sad her aunt might be if something like this happened to her. "If the eldest sister is here, maybe I can comfort her, otherwise she will be too sad and fall ill again, and the Lin family will be even more hectic."

Apparently Wang Xifeng also thought of this point, although the eldest sister is not very old, but she is already very sensible, it is still possible to comfort and take care of Daiyu, so she hurriedly started to help the eldest sister clean up some things.

This day, the two of them struggled until very late to fall asleep, and when they were called up the next day, they were still a little out of spirits, but they had to hurry. Wang Xifeng could only cheer himself up, and after eating in a hurry, let the servants set him up got the carriage.

Steward Lin was very grateful when she learned that Wang Xifeng was going to Yangzhou. At this time, the Lin family was a little flustered. If she could sit in the township, everyone's minds would be more at ease.

Thinking of this, he deeply admired her, "This servant thanked you on behalf of the Lin family."

Wang Xifeng waved his hand to show that he didn't care, then got into the carriage and ordered to go to Yangzhou City immediately.

Jia Lian took sister Qiao by the hand and sent them away outside the yamen, feeling a little depressed all the time. If Jia Min still had to die early, Daiyu and his brother would be too pitiful.

When Wang Xifeng and the eldest sister went out, only Jia Lian and his daughter stayed behind at home. Qiao's sister was a little listless without her little friend, so Jia Lian thought of ways to make her happy. Children love to go out, so he would go out every day. Take her to the street for a stroll, she has a big heart, and within two days she started laughing and joking again.

Jia Lian couldn't help being a little envious of the children who always forget their troubles so easily, but he didn't show his expression on the surface, but he was always thinking about the situation in Yangzhou in his heart.

It was half a month after Wang Xifeng returned to Changzhi County. Jia Lian was having dinner with Sister Qiao at that time. When she heard that she was back, she didn't have time to eat, so she hurriedly brought Sister Qiao out to meet her.

Not to mention that Sister Qiao has not been away from her mother for such a long time, even Jia Lian has not been separated from Wang Xifeng for such a long time. The first time she saw someone, she looked up and down, and saw that her face was not very good, and she felt a little distressed. .

Sister Qiao's pace was a bit slower, and at this time, when she saw her mother, she wanted to rush over, but with her figure, Jia Lian was worried that Wang Xifeng would fall again, so she reached out and grabbed her in her arms, "Your mother is tired, Let's go back to eat first."

Sister Qiao still wanted to be hugged by her mother, but her father didn't allow it, so she could only take the next best thing and hold her sister's hand.

Back in the house, Jia Lian ordered people to prepare meals again. Wang Xifeng leaned on the couch tiredly and said, "Let's make it simple, my eldest sister and I are hungry."

"Okay." Jia Lian asked someone to go to the kitchen again, and then asked, "How is Auntie?"

Wang Xifeng sighed, and said in a somewhat depressed voice: "The old doctor told us in private that he can only do his best to treat it, but it's just a matter of time..."

After Jia Lian heard this, her heart sank slightly, "Is it so serious?"

"It's already serious." Wang Xifeng couldn't let go of her brows, "Didn't the old doctor tell you that when we first arrived in Yangzhou? Her body was exhausted. If she can feel better and take care of herself, she might live longer But my aunt's temperament has already been settled, and Lin Ke is here with us again, so how can she not worry too much?"

Jia Lian was silent.

Wang Xifeng said again: "Uncle Lin originally wanted me to bring Daiyu and Lin Ke back, so as not to worry about what might happen, but the old imperial doctor said to let them take care of Auntie, and also..." Or if there is a Wan One, the meaning of being able to send the mother for the last time.

Why Jia Lian didn't understand this truth, it's just that they can't change this kind of thing. The old doctor has tried his best to treat him in Yangzhou, and all they can do is wait for news.

Yuanchun's marriage was held as scheduled, Jia Min was still conscious at this time, she naturally didn't want her illness to affect her niece's mood of getting married, so she stopped and did not pass the news of her illness back to Rongguo Mansion.

It was also because of the aunt's request in the letter that Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng didn't mention this matter when they gave Yuanchun a congratulatory gift, but tried to make their tone as cheerful as possible.

But even so, it was only a secret for a while. When Jia Min's condition worsened again, Lin Ruhai had to send a letter to Rongguo Mansion to tell the truth.

At the end of September, Jia Min's time in coma during the day has exceeded the waking time, and the time in coma is getting longer day by day. Even though Lin Ruhai didn't want to admit it, he still sent someone to invite his niece and daughter-in-law to help with the cooking. .

Jia Lian and his wife had known for a long time that if they went there again, they would have to prepare for Jia Min's funeral.So when Wang Xifeng went to Yangzhou, he also helped Jia Lian send a letter to the Shangguan, and asked for leave in advance so that he could make it in time just in case.

His superior and Lin Ruhai are colleagues, so he naturally knew about Mrs. Lin's illness, so he readily approved it.

As for Jia's mother who was far away in the capital, since she learned the news of her daughter's serious illness in the letter, she also fell ill and was groggy all day long.Until one day, I don't know if I felt something in my heart, but suddenly I felt a pain in my heart, and I passed out.

Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing were both waiting on the bedside. When they saw that the old lady was still awake and suddenly passed out, they immediately asked someone to call the imperial doctor nervously. No one noticed that the tears from the corners of Jiamu's eyes fell and disappeared into the temples. among...

On the eighth day of October, amidst Jia Lian's restlessness, the obituary deliverers of the Lin family rushed to Changzhi County.The moment he saw the person, Jia Lian compared his eyes, hurriedly arranged the affairs of the county government, abandoned the carriage and chose to ride a horse overnight, and finally arrived at Lin's house in the early morning.

Wang Xifeng had prepared his filial piety clothes when he was at home, so he put them on directly at this time, got out of the carriage, and immediately went to worship in front of the mourning hall.

After getting up, Jia Lian looked at Uncle Lin. His impression of him was still that of the handsome man he was when he saw him last year. When he never wanted to see him again, he was almost thinner and had white hair on his temples. He suddenly felt a little sad. : "Uncle, my condolences."

Lin Ruhai forced a wry smile, patted Jia Lian's shoulder with a dull expression, and confessed: "I'm really not in good spirits, and you and your wife have been troubled these days."

"This is what you should do. You should also take care of your health." Then Jia Lian advised him to take a rest.

Lin Ruhai nodded, he really couldn't hold on anymore, so he returned to the main house with a sad expression.He didn't close his eyes for many days, and fell asleep almost immediately the moment he lay down.

And Jia Lian was guarding the spirit in front of the mourning hall, in this situation, unconsciously, there was some sadness in his heart...

The next morning, Wang Xifeng packed herself up early and came to the mourning hall.Seeing her pale face at that time, Jia Lian felt distressed and said, "I've already come, why don't you take a good rest, don't burn your body."

Wang Xifeng shook her head, "You have also seen Uncle Lin's body, I have to make sure nothing happens, otherwise my aunt will not be able to walk safely."

It's true that there can be no mistakes in white affairs, so Jia Lian could only touch her face reassuringly, and said to her: "Eat more, or you won't be able to hold on."

"I can save it."

"How are Daiyu and Lin Ke?"

"The two of them are not in good health. If the old doctor hadn't been taking care of them these days, they would have fallen ill a long time ago."

However, Lin Ke's body has been well maintained this year, so she looks stronger than Lin Daiyu. Daiyu sheds tears every day, and she can't be happy no matter how much she persuades her...

It's just the pain of the death of a loved one, and no one can just pass it with a smile, and Wang Xifeng can only do her best to take care of her body.

He ordered someone to take Jia Lian to take a rest. Now is the busy time, and there will be more people coming to worship in a while, and they will never be idle for a moment.

But Jia Lian tidied up her appearance as quickly as possible, forced herself to eat something to fill her stomach, and hurriedly replaced Wang Xifeng, asking her to have breakfast before coming back.
