Flowers in the mirror, moon in the water.

I don't know why, the first time I saw Daiyu, I thought of this adjective.

It's beautiful, yes, it's very good. When reading a book, I often think, who is the most beautiful in the book, Daiyu and Baochai? Undoubtedly, the author himself admits that Baochai is the peony among the flowers, the first of all beauties. But now that I saw Daiyu and Baochai coming in together, I didn't feel that she was half inferior to Baochai.

Baochai's beauty is in her appearance, and her beauty is in her charm.

I can't describe her appearance, if you look at her eyebrows and eyes carefully, it doesn't seem to be as perfect as Baochai, and her figure is too thin and slender, not as slender as Tanchun. But she stands there and makes you feel close in front of you, and far away in the sky. Obviously, the eyebrows and eyes are vivid, but if you close your eyes and let you say what you see, you can't describe what kind of eyes and what kind of look you have.

The description in the book, the person who wrote the book did not use any specific willow eyebrows and bright eyes to describe it, is it true that the writer also feels this way in his heart? The beauty of Daiyu lies in her ungraspable, ethereal and ethereal charm.

I suddenly remembered the song in the mournful dream of the Red Mansion, one is the Langyuan Immortal, the other is the beautiful jade and flawless, the other is the moon in the water, and the other is the flower in the mirror......

Although I gave Baoyu an idea to find a way to take her away. But Daiyu's illness cannot be cured in this era, just like me, it will be difficult to escape death after all...... Sleepless nights, difficult to heal. Is the fairy couple ...... after all? Just a beautiful imagination and wish?

My nose suddenly became a little sour, and I quickly blinked twice to put that sadness away.

Daiyu had noticed that I had been paying attention to her, and a pair of watery eyes looked at me, and those beautiful eyes seemed to be able to speak. I smiled, and for some reason I always felt that the skin on my face seemed a little tired, and the smile was not so cheerful.

"Miss Lin hasn't been here for a few days, how is she doing?"

She smiled slightly, her eyes were as black as paint, and there was a moving style that flowed smartly: "Thank you second sister-in-law for still thinking about me, I'm already fine." ”

Jia Mu said: "It's windy outside today, you guys have come all the way, pour hot tea to eat." Feng Lazi told me a new joke just now, come on, let's listen to it. ”

Tanchun came over and sat down: "What jokes does the second sister-in-law say, let's listen to it too." ”

I sat up straight and said, "It's a new joke, it's just a puzzle for the old lady to guess." ”

Daiyu also asked, "What kind of puzzle?" ”

I thought about it for a while and changed it: "The first floor is ten feet high, and one person stands on the upper floor and throws eggs down." It's strange that the egg has fallen ten feet upwards, but why hasn't it broken?"

These questions are very simple, but people can't change their thoughts for a while, so no one answers them at once. They pondered there, but Amber next to the mandarin duck smiled: "The second grandmother is competing with eggs today, and she smashed it with a hammer just now, and she will throw it from the upper floor now." This egg is really a disaster. ”

Tanchun asked strangely: "Take a hammer?"

Amber said quickly: "The topic that the second grandmother just came up with is different from this topic, it is to use a hammer to hammer an egg, and the hammer will not break." ”

"It's strange, the egg can be said to have been thrown into the water so it didn't break, take a hammer, unless the hammer misses, how can the egg not break?"

Amber laughed out loud, covered her mouth with one hand, and turned her head to look at the mandarin duck's expression before saying, "This is the second grandmother playing with us, this hammer hammer egg hammer will not break." Of course, the hammer won't break, but it's a pity that none of us in the room have made it around. ”

Tanchun and the three of them all laughed, although the three of them were dressed similarly, but this smile showed their personalities. Tanchun is hearty, Yingchun is subtle, and when he smiles, he purses the corners of his mouth, and his lips, which were originally quite small, appear thinner. I paid close attention to it, her front teeth were a little crumbling, and the lower row was not very neat, perhaps because of this, so when she smiled, she either covered her mouth or pursed her mouth. Baochai's smile is also very beautiful, but the best thing is Daiyu, she laughs like a flower that blooms slightly in the spring breeze, the beauty is not single, but layered, progressive, heavy and heavy, extremely rich.

"I know!" Daiyu suddenly clapped her hands: "Throw an egg down from a ten-zhang high building, and the egg will not break if it falls ten zhang." ”

Tanchun also understood, but Yingchun was still asking, "Why won't it break?"

"If someone throws it, that person will take up the eggs. This person is standing upstairs, and when this egg falls, it is more than ten zhang high, so when it falls ten zhang, it has not hit the ground, so naturally it will not break," Daiyu's voice was light and happy, and explained to Yingchun, and asked me: "Second sister-in-law, is this so?"

I smiled and nodded: "Exactly, Miss Lin is smart, guessed." ”

I guessed if I had fallen into the water, or if someone was catching up or something, so I figured it out. The room was full of laughter, and Jia's mother was red and leaning on the cui, surrounded by everyone, and she was very happy to laugh.

Such a picture of public happiness is really happy to watch.

I didn't have much experience with people before, so I talked and laughed with people like this, so many people, everyone was together, and they were very happy.

It's good.

It's just a pity that this joyful scene will soon disappear. Concubine Jia will pass away, Jiafu will lose power, and these people will die and scatter......

"The second sister-in-law will think of these funny new joke puzzles, that is, the girl, her mind is smarter than ours, and she can guess it at a guess. ”

I also smiled, and Tanchun and Xichun over there asked people to take out the chessboard and chess box, playing chess and chatting.

Baoyu has looked at me several times at this time, he has something on his mind, and I have it too. But now that there are so many people, it's not the time to talk about things.

I stood up and said, "There are so many people here with the old lady, and I am not the only one who is missing, so I will take advantage of this time to go to work, and I will come back when the old lady is resting." ”

Jia Mu didn't leave me with someone, and said, "Okay, then you can go." Their sisters and Baoyu will accompany me. ”

I came out of Jia's mother's house, and Ping'er greeted me: "Grandma, are you going to the council room?"

I nodded, "Let's go." ”

"Grandma, let's get in the car. Ping'er walked forward with me in her arms: "What grandma and Baoyu said yesterday......"

I looked at her, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing...... Grandma's plans are for the long term and should be. It's just that I think grandma has changed her temper all of a sudden, which is a little strange. Besides, these things can't be done in a day or two, grandma can't be in a hurry, she is tired, and those who don't know these things may not guess. ”

"I care about them, you heard what I said yesterday, and those people calculate every day, and treat this as if it were a career for ten thousand years. In fact, it's only three years and two years, and ...... good days."

"Grandma. Ping'er nudged me.

We went out and the car stopped right in front of it. Someone came by next to me and put up a footstool, I stepped on the footstool and got into the car, beckoned and said, "Ping'er also come up." ”

She was stunned for a moment, but sat down with her.

"Did I ask Wang'er to find the total book on the Tianzhuangzi, have you sorted it out?"

"It's been sorted out. I chose it according to what my grandmother said, but it wasn't too close. ”

"It's okay if it's not close, it's not too close. I was a little sleepy, so I hid my mouth and yawned: "Ping'er, what do you think of what I said yesterday?"

She hung her head, and after a while said, "Grandma is naturally clear...... It's just that when I think about it at night, it's frightening and uncomfortable. How can such a situation be ......?"

"You are a person who understands, just think about it. It's not like some people, locked in this four-walled courtyard, they can only see a piece of sky the size of a palm, and they won't understand it if you tell them such words. I looked at her, "If there is anyone in this family who understands besides us, it is probably one." ”

"Who?" she asked.

"Old lady. ”

With a little memory of the past and the help of Ping'er, he sent away the daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law who were in charge. When I went to Jia's mother again after noon, Amber was withdrawing from the house, and when she saw me coming, she hurriedly shook her hand.

I whispered, "What's the matter?"

"No, it's Second Master Bao who is here, and he is talking to the old lady, and Sister Mandarin Duck is in front of him. ”

I nodded.

Baoyu really wanted to work hard.

The people inside probably heard it, and Jia Mu asked, "Who?"

Amber said, "Second Grandma Lian is here. ”

"Ah, come in. ”

When I entered, the mandarin duck was standing on one side, and Baoyu was sitting next to Jia's mother. When I went in, he stood up and said, "Sister Feng is here." ”

I nodded, a little unsure of what he said to Jia Mu, but Jia Mu's face was very calm, and the calm was very different from usual.

"Feng girl, sit down. ”

I sat down on the other round stool she had pointed to, not as close as Baoyu to her, but very close.

Jia Mu looked at me and suddenly sighed: "Su Ri, I love the two of you a lot, many people are red-eyed, some are jealous, and some are resentful." I really want to call them all here, listen to them, and see if I hurt you or not! What Baoyu just said, I thought it would take a few more years for him to understand...... I didn't think he would have a heart now. Jia Mu glanced at me: "Feng girl, you are here now, do you have something to say?"

I nodded: "Yes, I have been thinking about it for a few days, this matter has to be discussed with the old lady, the old lady, I will go to the old lady to ask for an idea." This should have been done sooner...... It's just that I'm proposing it, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. But I thought about it, and I really have to do it, I'm afraid it will be ...... if I delay it a little longer" I swallowed Chi Zesheng back and said, "I'm just afraid that there will be too many things and I will forget it." ”

"What's the matter, tell me. ”

"Back to the old lady's words, it is the matter of purchasing a sacrificial field and learning a field. ”

Jia Mu thought for a while, a little distracted, then nodded and said, "This is as it should be...... It should have been done earlier, and you thought about it very thoughtfully. Let's see which of the fields on the Zhuangzi is suitable, and let's settle down. Your wife's there, I'll come and talk to her. ”

"Yes. The mandarin duck handed me a cup of tea, and I took it and put it on the table next to me: "There is one more thing ......?"

"Say it. ”

"I thought that we would be filial in front of the old lady all day long, after all, it was limited. The ancestors' food, clothing, housing and transportation, everything is the mandarin duck dedicated service, so many years, it has really worked hard for her, even those of us who are grandsons and granddaughters-in-law are far inferior to her. I want to ask the ancestor for an idea, whether to cancel the mandarin duck's identity to her, and still keep her to serve in front of the old lady. I am in charge, and when I got married, my family also accompanied a small Zhuangzi, which has a few hectares of land. If the old lady nods, I will send the deed to the mandarin duck when she comes back, and if she marries in the future, this will be the dowry given to her in our house, and it can be regarded as a little heart for us as children and grandchildren to do our filial piety for us......"

The mandarin duck was already stunned, and her hand was still in the posture of handing me the tea just now, and Jia Mu was silent for a while, looking at me deeply: "Feng girl, you have really changed your temper in the past these days." ”

The mandarin duck hurriedly said: "Old lady, second grandmother, I don't ......"

"Well, you don't have to say it. Jia Mu raised her hand. At this time, she is not at all like the one she used to be, how to say it, she is always happy, lazily eating, drinking, talking and laughing, looking heartless and confused.

But Jia Mu's expression is calm and calm now, and her eyes are clear, how can she be a little confused?

I'm afraid she is one of the few people in Jiafu who understands, but what can she do if she understands? Jiafu is already declining, and she can see this situation clearly.

"What Feng Yatou said is that you have served me all these years, and you are better than your children and grandchildren, and I can't treat you badly. Originally, I was going to do this in another year or two, but since Feng Yatou has this intention, she has already mentioned it, and she will give you a divorce in public in a few days, and you will not be a slave in the future, and no one can treat you as a slave. ”

The mandarin duck pounced and knelt down: "Old lady, I just want to serve the old lady wholeheartedly, and I will never ......"

Jia Mu intercepted her words: "You don't need to say it, you have been cautious all these years, and you really didn't say anything about serving me." However, the field does not need to be taken out by Feng Yatou, and I allocated fifty acres of the field where I was married back then. In the future, you will also have a dependent, and if you marry, this will be your dowry, and no one will be able to take you away. Feng Yatou is not wrong in what she said, there are so many sons, grandchildren, daughters-in-law, but the closest person is her......" Mother Jia raised her eyes to look at me, and then looked at Baoyu: "There are also the two of you." Feng girl, you were too strong before, but now it seems that you are a reasonable person after all, and Baoyu also knows how to be motivated. It's good, it's good......"

She raised her hand: "You guys go out first, I know everything, but I have to think about it." Go, go. ”

Baoyu and I both stood up and withdrew. The mandarin duck was still kneeling in front of Mother Jia, and I walked to the door and looked back again, not knowing what their master and servant would say.

Mandarin ducks are very loyal, and Mother Jia also likes her very much. But Jia Mu in the book has never planned for the future of the mandarin duck, maybe it's too late, maybe it's ...... In short, the detailed reasons are unknown.

But I don't know how much this can help the mandarin ducks. I just like this guy and want to do a little bit.

The autumn afternoon sun is a little weak, and the people who bask are a little lazy. The vermilion lacquered pillars and painted beams look a little bright in the sun, but they look gloomy.

"Sister Feng. ”

I looked back at Baoyu and didn't say anything, just nodded.

"Go ahead, I've got to get busy. ”
