Red Mansion(22)

Wang Xifeng also couldn't understand whether the Xue family gave the silver, or maybe it was given to his aunt to keep it.

Seeing that the scene was a little stiff, she smiled and took over: "Oh! Who can't push the silver out when they see it." Old lady, even if our family is not short of silver, is it possible that Aunt Lin is short of silver. Since my uncle is thinking of a way to honor you, you can enjoy your face next. If everyone doesn't want it, I'll have someone move out. As he spoke, he only shouted, "Ping'er, hurry up, call your second master, let's carry the silver back." It's not like sitting at home and making a windfall. ”

Everyone in the room laughed, and the atmosphere was relaxed.

Shi Shi pointed at Wang Xifeng and smiled: "It's really a broken family." Take it! Take it! Your cousin and cousin are here, you just need to take care of it. ”

That's what it means to put it into the public account.

Wang Xifeng's heart was relieved. The silver collected a year ago was almost consumed for the New Year. The Lin family's two thousand taels of silver should be able to support it for a while.

Next, everyone talked and laughed, Lin Yutong coped with everyone's questions, and observed Lin Daiyu with his spare eyes. Seeing her and Jia Baoyu together again, muttering head to head, her brows furrowed.

It seems that the power of the original is powerful. After talking so much about Jia Baoyu, I forgot about this meeting.

She was also a little discouraged. Who can bear whose life will not be successful.

Mrs. Wang would not agree with Bao Dai, so let's see the final result. I'm afraid that if you break your heart, maybe you can mature. Anyway, Lin Daiyu's body is now light and can't die. Let her go. I can't persuade him, but the harsh reality is the best teacher. She'll figure it out one day. As for her reputation, she doesn't care, she blindly wants to break free from the rules of the world. Then go for it. Anyway, my reputation is not good, and I don't care about being burdened by this cheap sister.

Why should you be a wicked person who is hated by others?

Lin Yuyang glanced at Lin Daiyu, her eyes narrowed, and she didn't make a sound. A room full of dependents, he did not speak, his eyes were lowered, and he rarely raised his eyes.

Dinner was plentiful. Lin Yutong didn't know what the Manchu and Han banquets looked like, but there were a total of 66 dishes today, and the top half of the Manchu and Han banquets were also topped.

This is not the highest specification of the Jia family.

Lin Yutong and Lin Yuyang have both suffered and don't care at all about the so-called greasy. It's just that Lin Daiyu's appetite has recently been raised by Lin Yutong. What she usually gives her is her usual taste, which is very light, even if it is meat, it is done as much as possible without meat taste. When she saw these things, she really couldn't eat them.

I took the tea soup and soaked the rice, ate two bites, and it was over.

Lin Yutong frowned again when he looked at it.

I didn't say anything about eating, I passed a meal, and it was not early.

"I just got off the boat today, and I didn't stop when I arrived. I will not keep you. Let's go back to the yard early and rest. Shi smiled and arranged.

Lin Yutong responded, and accompanied by Wang Xifeng, walked for a quarter of an hour before arriving at Jufang Courtyard.

The yard is smaller than expected, perhaps because each of the Lin family has its own yard, and the courtyard between the two entrances is cramped as soon as the girl and the woman are stuffed.

"This place is not as spacious as the Lin family, and I have wronged my sister. Wang Xifeng has seen Lin Daiyu's courtyard, and he knows that there is no way to compare with the Lin family here.

"Our family has a small population, and it is not as prosperous as the population of your house. It's already good here. Annoying sister-in-law bother. Lin Yutong smiled politely.

The two exchanged a few words of greeting, and then sent Wang Xifeng out.

There are two cross-courtyards on each side of the courtyard, and the sisters have one for each of them. Passing through the corridor in the middle of the courtyard is Lin Yuyang's courtyard. There is usually a door, and the maid in the inner courtyard is not allowed to go out of this door without permission.

On the other side of the door is Lin Yuyang's courtyard. When the outer courtyard is in use. Not only is there a living room, but there is also a place for hospitality and a study. Further on, there is another door. When I went out, there was a shot away, and it was the back wall, and there was a small door open on the wall, and there was an alley outside the door. The alley is a dead end, and not many people usually pass by. Out of the alley, it's the street. Turn another 100 meters, and it will be the bustling Ningrong Street.

It can be said that it is a quiet place in the middle of noisy, and it is extremely convenient.

Lin Yutong looked at the yard again, and saw that his younger brother was all right. Only then did I go to Lin Daiyu's yard.

"I'll ask the cook to bring you a bowl of vegetarian wontons in a moment. I didn't take a few bites of dinner. Lin Yutong asked with a smile.

"Suddenly a little unaccustomed. Lin Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled. I'm a little embarrassed.

Lin Yutong nodded. "After eating, I rested early, I was tired of the day. ”

"My sister also rested early. Lin Daiyu got up to send it.

Lin Yutong stopped, "You are weak, and it is still cold at night, don't go out." He also instructed Zhilan Fanghua, "Take care of your master, and report anything bad to you quickly." ”

The two solemnly agreed, and Lin Yutong returned to his yard.

"No one has lived in this courtyard before, it's called Jufangyuan. The Xue family lives in Lixiangyuan. The girl of the Shi family and the second master of the Jia family lived in the blue yarn cupboard of the old lady of the Shi family. Chun'er whispered.

This is where the search begins.

Lin Yutong nodded with satisfaction.

Jufang Yuan is Jufang Yuan, chrysanthemum is the flower of longevity, and what the Lin family lacks most is longevity. That's a good moral idea.

As for the Xue family's Lixiangyuan. She really didn't want to. The words described in the book are as follows: Rong Gong's quiet place in his twilight years is small and compact, with about ten houses.

Small and compact, and there are only more than ten houses, where is enough for their own home. The girl can't even stuff it.

Lin Yutong secretly thought that there was only one girl by Xue Baochai's side, whether it had something to do with not being able to live it. Otherwise, the Xue family would not be unable to afford a girl.

Besides, what Lin Yutong couldn't figure out was that since it was Rong Gong's twilight retreat, it was just a matter of taking it out for relatives to live in. How did it come to the time to repair the Grand View Garden, and gave the little drama to live in. Even in the end, it became the place where Second Sister You stopped!

This is really disdainful of descendants! The territory of the ancestors can also be so badly abused. If it is an ordinary family, such a place can only be reserved for the head of the family or the children to study.

Regardless of the number of meanings represented by Lixiangyuan in the original book. It is better to say that he is a place where Baoyu is in love, or to say that it alludes to the Liyuan Theater, which represents life as a play. Others say that pear blossoms are the same as 'separation', which is doomed to tragedy.

No matter what others say, it's not your own home!

However, Shi Xiangyun replaced Lin Daiyu and lived in the blue yarn cupboard, which still surprised Lin Yutong for a moment. This Shi clan is really ruining people!

said that Wang Xifeng returned to the house, and Ping'er greeted her, waited for her to take off her big sweater, and simply freshened up. That's when people set the meal, "Grandma, why don't you eat some first." ”

The daughters-in-law of the Jia family are very hard. They have to watch while they eat. At this time, there is time to eat.

Wang Xifeng sat down on the kang, "It's not that I'm tired to death." You haven't seen it, Duan is a powerful character. ”

"Depending on who she is, she can be stronger than grandma. Ping'er said with a smile.

"It's not a fool's errand! It's not a little bit better than me. As far as the temperament that can be freed up, I can't compare. Wang Xifeng sighed.

Ping'er smiled and changed the topic: "The two thousand taels of silver are on the public account." Just now I looked, and my wife sent Zhou Rui's family to the account room again, and it should be a piece of silver. ”

Wang Xifeng nodded: "I'm afraid it's prepared for someone from the palace." Counting the days, it is time to come and get the money. No matter what time there is no three or five hundred taels, they can't be sent away. After the Lantern Festival, I came once and gave two hundred taels, looking like I didn't like it very much. This time there are no five hundred taels, I'm afraid it's not easy to speak. ”

"What's not five hundred taels is not easy to speak. Jia Lian's voice came from outside the door, he lifted the curtain and walked in with a smile, "Depending on who he is, don't worry about it first." The eldest lord spoke again, saying that he had taken a fancy to a painting, and asked him to take eight hundred taels first. I'm going to have to hurry up and get some money. ”

Wang Xifeng put down his chopsticks and said angrily: "I just got two thousand taels in the account, my wife said that I would pay one thousand taels, and the eldest lord asked for eight hundred taels." Only two hundred taels were left in the account, and Ming'er was not enough for the old man's guests to drink for a meal. How can I live this day? ”

"Then you say, to whom this is not given. The eldest lord didn't think of this incident until he watched his wife's money. If you refuse today, it won't be a trivial matter. Jia Lian sat on the edge of the kang, "Ming'er doesn't care where he is, saving a handful of money is enough." Besides, the Lin family put the silver, and the Xue family is embarrassed to live in vain. I'm afraid that Ming'er will send silver over again. You're all over the place. ”

Wang Xifeng sighed, "That's it, let it go." ”

Jia Lian got up at this time, "I won't come back in the evening." The eldest brother sent Rong'er to invite him. said that he invited some eunuch in the palace to eat wine. I'm not going to go. ”

"Phew! What a eunuch. Wang Xifeng reprimanded, "I don't know where the powder-headed sister came from, fooling the ghost." ”

Jia Lian only walked out, "I don't have any silver on me, which fan-headed sister doesn't want silver upside down." Just blindly multi-hearted. ”

As he spoke, he threw the curtain and went out the door. Wang Xifeng, who was angry, smashed the dishes and mixed the bowls again.

Jia Lian turned his head and went to the account to pay 800 taels of silver, and gave Jia Yu 600 taels.

left two hundred taels on his body, and then took Wang'er out of the house and went to find Jia Zhen and Jia Rong's father and son.

Zhou Rui's family pointed out the silver to Mrs. Wang, "Madam, one thousand taels of silver." This Lin family is also generous. ”

Wang nodded, "Then the inner eunuch of Xia is only afraid that he will come for these two days, take five hundred taels outside, and put the rest away." Not for now. ”

Zhou Rui's family replied in a low voice and asked, "Mrs. Auntie sent someone to ask whether the silver given this time was put in the public account or collected by Mrs. ”

Wang's twisted Buddha beads paused, "Let's take it first." Sitting outside, you can't afford the expenses of a day. It's long gone. I'll keep it first. ”

The second grandmother asked, what do you say. Zhou Ruijia asked again.

"I said that the eldest girl wanted to do something in the palace, and I was in a hurry to use it, so I left first. Wang turned to the Buddhist scriptures again and twisted the Buddhist beads.

Zhou Rui's family responded, and then turned around to do something.
