Xianglan sighed softly, she didn't have a very good impression of Lin Dongxiu, but since the two lived peacefully, she gradually felt that Lin Dongxiu's heart was not bad, and now Lin Dongxiu was going to marry Yongchang Hou and be Dege'er's mother-in-law, she was particularly worried and couldn't help but say a few more words. Lin Dongxiu's heart Xianglan shook her head, it is impossible for her and De Ge'er to be "mother and son filial piety", if you can treat it well, you can make people recite a Buddha.
Xianglan was worried in her heart, and suddenly heard Aunt Xia calling her name, so she went over, Aunt Xia beckoned Xianglan to sit beside her, took her hand, looked at it carefully for a while, and smiled at Fang Fei: "It's really a good look, it's rare to be knowledgeable." ”
Fang Fei smiled and said, "No, I heard that the maids and daughters-in-law of the Lin family also said that the aunt and grandmother in the uncle's room are a good character." ”
Aunt Xia asked Xianglan, "At what age did you enter the mansion?" He asked again: "Were you born by the Lin family or bought?" Where are the parents? How old are you this year? ”
Xianglan answered one by one. Aunt Xia heard that Xianglan was a slave born in the family, and heard that she had left the Lin family and re-entered, so she couldn't help but let out a long sigh and patted Xianglan's hand.
said that Lin Jinlou called Lin Dongxiu out, stood at the door, opened the curtain of the room, and pointed to De Ge'er, who was fiddling with the small wooden sword on the Luohan bed, and said: "This little guy is Lao Yuan's heart, why don't you go over and coax it?" If you treat him well, Lao Yuan will not be able to treat you badly. As he spoke, he took out a well-wishing Jin Huang from the purse around his waist, handed it to her, and said, "Give this to Brother De'er and hang it around his neck, the child has a long mouth, and Lao Yuan will know it as soon as he is ready." ”
Lin Dongxiu twisted the handkerchief a little reluctantly, remembering what Fang Cai Xianglan had just said to her, such as "forming a good relationship" and "willing to suffer", Fang Cai entered the house, sat next to De Ge'er, and talked to him in a long and short manner.
Lin Dongxiu played with Brother De for a while, then went back with Aunt Xia, the maids came in to clean up the cups and cups of tea sets, Brother De's illness had just just recovered, and Fang had been making trouble for a long time, and he was already tired at the moment, Xianglan ordered someone to bring a bowl of porridge, personally fed him, placed him on the bed in the blue yarn cupboard, and fed him a pill, and then fell asleep by the nurse.
Xianglan sat on the edge of the bed and stared at his little face for a long time, her heart was soft and astringent, she sometimes felt that the memories of her previous life had been blurred, those flowers were brocade, the fire was cooking oil, the brocade clothes and jade food, the style of writing and ink was elegant, all of them were an old dream that came and went without a trace, and today I saw Brother De again, and the situation of fighting with Jia Lian's hairpin flowers and grass and chanting poems in the past appeared in front of me again. Xianglan quietly reddened her eyes, and said to herself: "Sister, why did you die, you can't see each other again in this life." She looked up from the window and saw the green bamboo outside the window. In the past two or three years, she has tasted at least half of the world's flavors, self-pity, tenderness and sweetness, and discouragement, and then Lin Jinlou took her to the capital, she sat under the breeze one day, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, listened to the sounds of heaven in her ears, and her heart suddenly became clear.
In fact, God treats her well, after so many ups and downs, her life is indeed slowly getting better, originally she was just a lowly maid with a life like mustard, she couldn't even cry and laugh involuntarily, she was harshly bullied, her parents lived in poverty at home, and she even had to worry about needles and threads. Now that her family has left her nationality, bought a house and land, and her father has become a decent shopkeeper, the family can actually make slaves and maids. Thinking of this, the humiliation and grievances suffered by Su Rili have also been reduced by half, not to mention that now she is living a useful life in the Lin family, there are people to take care of her actions, sitting and sleeping, Lin Jinlou treats her a lot softer than before, she is still trembling in her heart, walking on thin ice, but she is still grateful, even if such a day is not what she wants.
The only thing she can do is to wait quietly, try to live, and make life better, she sometimes suffers from a little despair, but she still endures. She knew that Jiang Xiyun was the daughter-in-law of the Qin family, she was an extremely smart and clever girl, maybe in the future, Lin Jinlou married her, she caught her husband's heart, and she would be placed outside the mansion because she was afraid of herself?
Xianglan thought about it for a while, but Lin Jinlou walked in, stood behind Xianglan, also looked at Brother De, and frowned: "What's so good about this kid?" If you like it, let's have one ourselves. ”
Xianglan turned her back to him and ignored him, and tucked the small quilt on Dege'er's body. Lin Jinlou went to pull her arm and said, "Okay, look, let's go eat first, I'm starving." Pull Xianglan outside, the kang table has been set up on the big kang outside, and the dishes have been passed on, Lin Jinlou ordered Xianglan to sit next to him in the kang, the two cleaned their hands, Lin Jinlou ordered someone to bring a pot of wine, nodded the cup in front of him and said to Xianglan: "Don't you give it to the master?" ”
Xianglan picked up the pot and poured a cup for Lin Jinlou, and Lin Jinlou said, "You can have a cup with me." ”
"I'll replace wine with tea."
"Last night, you told your grandfather that you wanted to see Brother De'er, and today your grandfather brought someone here, for this, don't you want to give a drink?"
"Oh." Xianglan had to pour herself a cup and salute Lin Jinlou.
Lin Jinlou said: "Do you like Brother Deer so much? Well? ”
Xianglan lowered her eyes and said, "I like all children, I also like Brother Yuan, uncle forgot?" ”
Lin Jinlou touched his chin and said, "No, you see that Brother De'er's eyes are different, as if he is your own son, what do you have to do with the Shen family?" ”
Xianglan's heart jumped, and she smiled and said, "What can I have to do with the Shen family, if you didn't mention it, I wouldn't have known that there was such a family." ”
Lin Jinlou put down his chopsticks, didn't speak, and looked at her with slanted eyes. Xianglan's palms were sweaty, she lowered her head and gave Lin Jinlou a chopsticks of tender bamboo shoots, and whispered: "This is tender, and the summer is defeated." Secretly glanced at Lin Jinlou, only to see him looking at himself, his eyes were bright and amazing.
Xianglan had no choice but to bury her head in eating, and overheard Lin Jinlou say: "What did you say about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the head is the Tao, this is all taught to you by your master Dingyi?" ”
"Hmm."
Lin Jinlou Fu picked up the chopsticks again, ate the tender bamboo shoots, and said, "Then your master is a very great person, you say that, guess what the four cousins are talking about outside?" Say you're showcasing your talents and being pretentious. ”
Xianglan was stunned, she saw that De Ge'er was heartfelt, and she just wanted to tell him everything she knew, and when she heard Lin Jinlou's words, she smiled and said, "Then even if I do it." ”
Lin Jinlou pinched her face and said, "Tsk, sometimes, I think you are a noodle person, you can make people knead round and flat; Sometimes, you're like a stinky rock, and you give people a toothache. He added another chopstick dish to Xianglan, and said: "In fact, what you said, those who understand it will naturally understand, and their hearts will be enlightened; For those who don't understand, if they talk about it for another day, they will also feel that it is a long speech, which is not good. It's the same as the 'realm' you said, if you don't have the realm, it's nonsense to say anything, even if you show him the "Orchid Pavilion Preface", he thinks it's a ghost drawing. ”
Xianglan looked at Lin Jinlou with a pair of bright eyes, she couldn't hold it back, and asked, "Then do you understand?" As soon as the words came out, he regretted it, and quickly lowered his head, pretending to pour wine for Lin Jinlou, wanting to get by.
Lin Jinlou glared and said, "Fart!" Can you still not understand? Seeing Xianglan looking at him suspiciously, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed, put down his chopsticks and said: "The old lady has been the country's priest wine, and the family is full of Confucianism. ”
Xianglan pursed her lips, and Lin Jinlou said, "You don't believe it, do you?" After a while, you will sit down, and the beauty of the painting will show you. After a pause, he said: "I heard the fourth sister say, today the Tan family spoke to you again and gave you no face, and the fourth cousin also secretly hurt you, next time you are so honest, who bullied you, you will return it directly, I remember that you have a very powerful mouth, and the angry master was like a knife at that time, so you will be dumb if you touch others?" Saying that, he added another chopstick dish to Xianglan, and said: "You have started reciting Buddhist scriptures again these days, piety is good, but don't make yourself look like an old lady who is about to die, why do you love to read that thing?" ”
Xianglan looked at Lin Jinlou, and said in her heart that you are greedy, angry, stupid, and suspicious, and you should read the Buddhist scriptures well, she didn't dare to say it clearly, so she said: "There is great wisdom in the Buddhist scriptures, and the uncle should also read them." ”
"How can you have the time to look at this."
Xianglan said: "There are endless troubles and undesirable sufferings in life, no one can escape from birth, old age, sickness and death, and the silver, power, status, and love that you want to hold on to, sometimes it is just an impermanent dream to think about." In your previous life, you were the master of fine clothes and jade food, and in the next life, you will be a slave and maid who is called around; Loving couples in the past life may also be strangers in this life. Sometimes I wonder how far away life and death are, but it's just between breaths. How far good and evil are, but only a thought. No matter how far back the past and the present are, it's just a joke. Sometimes those who struggle and can't let go, and who struggle for life and death, actually have only one thought, but it is indeed too difficult to let go of enlightenment. That's why we have to read the Buddhist scriptures and participate in the great wisdom in them, so that people's hearts will be pure, and no matter how unsatisfactory things in the world are, they can be calmly opposed. ”
Lin Jinlou looked at her, remembering that she talked eloquently in the afternoon, and unconsciously looked radiant, and her heart seemed to be full of soup women, warm and hot, and there was a very uncomfortable taste, indescribable.
At this time, at the beginning of the lanterns, Xianglan's face was shrouded in a soft candlelight, she didn't look at him, her eyes only looked at a calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall, her eyes were confused, as if she had really seen the ethereal past life. Lin Jinlou has never seen such a pandan Lin Jinlou, he has seen her stubborn, crying, silent, and smiling, but he has never seen her look sad and vicissitudes of speech, he has never seen her so vulnerable.
He wanted to reach out and take Xianglan in his arms and pat her on the back, but for some reason, he seemed to have a seed in his heart that was about to break through the ground, and he couldn't move.
