310 Sick (4)
On the second day, the Lin family came to visit, came to visit the endless stream, Lin Jinlou ordered Xianglan to read the message sent to him, to the relatives and distance, priority and urgency divided into a few piles, some by him dictated, Xianglan wrote back to the past, some directly sent to the old lady, he still called the outside world, all of them did not see the guests, only only saw the chief historian and staff sent by the prince.
After sending off the guests, Xianglan handed the gift list sent by the prince to Lin Jinlou to see, Lin Jinlou took a cursory look, and said to Xianglan: "Give the gift list to the old lady and take a look, if there are things you like, go pick up a few, and let the wife pick up a few." With that, he closed his eyes. Xianglan knew that he had spent half a day of energy and was already tired, so she fed a few mouthfuls of water, put down the curtain, and sent Xue Ning to give a gift list. Not long after, Tao Hongxun, Lin Dongqi and his wife came to Changchun Hall to visit the patient, he saw that the courtyard was silent, and couldn't help but walk in softly and slowly, only to see two or three little girls outside the quilt drying, two maids outside the house doing needlework, seeing them come in, quickly put down their work, and went in to report.
When Tao Hongxun looked at it, he saw that the house was resplendent with gold, scorching articles, and there was a lush orchid, such as Han Orchid, Mo Lan, and Hui Orchid, which were lined with a few red plums inserted in the bottle, and the narcissus of the fragrant Turui was red and white, and it was also good-looking. Xin said: "My eldest brother has always been impatient to play with flowers and plants, and now these flowers and plants in the house, especially orchids, think that they are the concubines in his room, and they are called 'orchid monks' like it." Just thinking about it, I heard someone whispering through the screen window inside: "Second aunt, second aunt and grandmother, please come in quickly." "I saw a beautiful woman come out, dressed not like an ordinary maid. Tao Hongxun hurriedly lowered his head, didn't look at it, and entered the house with Lin Dongqi, and looked around, only to see that the woman was a tall man, with a goose egg face, wearing a brocade official green silk jacket, covered with a light red armor, a white silk skirt, a rich rhyme, looking forward to the brilliance, it was Xianglan. Lin Dongqi was very affectionate with her, held Xianglan's hand, and asked, "How is my brother?" ”
Xianglan said softly, "I just fell asleep." He led the two of them to the bed, lifted the curtain, and saw that Lin Jinlou was sleeping, the flesh on his cheeks was thin, his cheekbones were extremely high, and his face was pale. Lin Dongqi's eyes turned red, and he said to Xianglan: "Let him sleep quickly, we won't disturb." Xianglan led the two of them to the next room and served the tea herself, Tao Hongxun knew that her identity was different, so she hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "How can I bother you to pour the tea, I will pour it myself." ”
Xianglan said: "The second aunt just sits, but just pour a cup of tea." I felt that Tao Hongxun was really decent, so he didn't look around, and since he entered the house, he walked with his head down with a smile on his face, and his steps were very leisurely. went to see Lin Dongqi again, and knew that she gave birth to a son, and she just came out after confinement, her body was a lot rounder, but her complexion was excellent.
At that moment, Lin Dongxiu came again, Tao Hongxun sat down slightly, and went to the old lady, no problem. But said that Xianglan, Qi, and Xiu spoke together, and asked about Lin Jinlou's distress that night, Xianglan only said once that she had encountered the rebels, and omitted Zhao Yuechan's section, and their sisters touched their chests and sighed.
Lin Dongxiu said: "In the past two days, the capital has also been calmer, but there are still disrupted parties everywhere, and people are panicking. ”
Xianglan sighed: "Have the two aunts been to the second room?" The second master was also sick in bed, and he understood for a while, and he was confused for a while. The doctor said that only after surviving this winter can he see well. The second grandmother was also sick. The eldest aunt and grandmother came early this morning to wear linen and filial piety. Now that it is an eventful season, the old lady means to do the funeral quietly, and gave the eldest aunt and grandmother a hundred taels of silver, so that she can watch the operation and not publicize it. ”
Lin Dongxiu leaned over and asked Xianglan, "Tsk, why did you say Aunt Yin didn't have it?" Her body is stiff, and it is normal for her second brother to be sick in a weak year, but why is Tan also sick? Saying that the disease is still unwindy, and it is not allowed to go into the house to visit the sick, how can it be like seeing no one? ”
Xianglan understood in her heart, and said: "How do I know, we were in Zhuangzi a few days ago, and these days we have only served the uncle, and the things next to me can't reach my ears." ”
After saying it again, the two of them got up to go to the second room to take a look, Aunt Yin was gone, and she was going to burn incense, and she did her best, so she took her leave.
Lin Jinlou slept for about an hour, and when he woke up, he saw Xianglan sitting in the room, and he was a little happy in his heart. Xianglan coaxed a few words softly: "Is it okay to eat some?" This is still my own hands. ”
At this time, Ling Su said: "The fourth aunt is here." I saw Yuan Shaoren walk in and see each other with Xianglan, so he moved an embroidery pier and sat on the edge of the bed, touched Lin Jinlou's chest, and asked with a smile: "How are you doing today?" Better? ”
Lin Jinlou coughed twice and said: "What's so good, I saw that the sky was full of bitter taste, and when I saw the pills and the juice, I wanted to vomit, except for eating and sleeping, and the bones all over my body were about to rust." You still have to help me in the army camp, don't look back, there are no tigers in the mountains, the monkey is called the king, and they are all reversed by the camp. In the past two days, all the big and small things have been handed letters, and there are so many notes that they almost buried me. As he spoke, he saw a lot of letterheads piled up and down the bedside.
Yuan Shaoren said with a smile: "This can't be done, I will take care of the military affairs next to you, and your Lin family army will not listen to me." As he spoke, he picked up a letterhead and looked at it, pointed to the instructions next to him and smiled, "Look, what a beautiful hairpin, someone will take care of it for you, you * add fragrance, what else is uncomfortable?" Catch up with Ming'er, let Wen Rushi's henchmen and subordinates come diligently, and you will have everything after a few trips. ”
"I'm uncomfortable lying in bed like this, and you're still entertaining me, it's too unrighteous."
Yuan Shaoren snorted: "I'm not righteous yet? I'm out there to catch the party for a day, I'm so tired, and now I'm running to you here to look at you, and I still have this reputation? ”
Lin Jinlou sighed: "If we don't change, I want to catch the party." ”
Yuan Shaoren took a sip of tea, took out a piece of paper from his arms and said, "It's done, your injuries are not in vain." The Holy One wants to reward you, and perhaps you will become a governor. This is a letter that has just been handed out by the Cabinet. ”
Lin Jinlou browsed the piece of paper and said: "That title is also false, and it is not bad for dozens of taels of silver a year." ”
Yuan Shaoren put the paper back in his arms and said with a smile: "You have to upgrade the grade, if you want real power, you have to be graced after the prince succeeds to the throne, a general soldier can't run." ”
At that moment, Xianglan came in to add tea, and Lin Jinlou only stared at her. Yuan Shaoren looked at Xianglan, then at Lin Jinlou, and when Xianglan went out, he said: "Okay, don't look at it, everyone has gone out, haven't you seen enough of the sky guarding by your side?" Go back and stare at the hole again. ”
Lin Jinlou glanced at him and said, "I'm willing, can I manage it?" ”
Yuan Shaoren waved his hand and said: "Yes, yes, I don't care about telling the truth, this girl is really good, I have suffered a crime with you, and after such a experience, you have to be nice to others, especially the dog's temper that turns his face, you stare at me, this is the friendship between you and my brothers, I don't say this when I change people, how good the New Year's greetings are, why should I bother to talk about these shortcomings." ”
Lin Jinlou sighed, paused, and said, "She just didn't say anything, and I don't know what she was thinking." ”
Yuan Shaoren was stunned for a moment, staring at a pot of bluegrass on the table in front of the bed, and said for a long time: "She knows in her heart that she is a slave maid, even if she has a lot of kindness with your family, in the future, you will have to marry a girl who is in the right family to come in, brother, you touch your heart and think about it, she has such a good look, unless you marry a clay man to come in, who can tolerate it?" Is it just that you might marry a clay man? This big family, no one can be in charge inside, can stabilize the backyard? She's just too smart and too clear, even if she is confused, she won't live like this. ”
Lin Jinlou looked at Yuan Shaoren and said, "You understand it tightly. ”
Yuan Shaoren smiled bitterly and said: "What don't I understand, Lianniang at the beginning" He stopped talking here, patted Lin Jinlou on the shoulder and said: "You are a smart person, I don't say too much, I want to understand and figure out how to treat others." Originally, you were wishful thinking, but you let the Jiang family harm the girl, haven't you suffered enough? ”
Lin Jinlou didn't speak, just stared at the top tent on his head. The room was quiet for a while, Yuan Shaoren mentioned several important tasks in the army, Lin Jinlou casually agreed a few words, and when Yuan Shaoren got up to leave, Lin Jinlou said: "I heard that the second sister and the second sister-in-law are coming, you ask them to bring the second brother-in-law, I have something to tell him." ”
When Yuan Shaoren came out, Xianglan was doing needlework with the maids outside, and was busy getting up to send it, Yuan Shaoren walked to the door, and suddenly said to Xianglan: "I'm going to give it to the old lady, I just heard my mother-in-law say, everyone is here today, the old lady wants to keep the meal, let me go, you show me the way." ”
Xianglan is a smart person, knowing that Yuan Shaoren has something to say to her, so she nodded in response, took the cloak and followed out, and came to the courtyard, Yuan Shaoren asked, "What are your plans in the future?" ”
Xianglan glanced at Yuan Shaoren and said, "I don't have any plans." ”
Yuan Shaoren said: "People have no foresight must have near-term worries, you are a thoughtful person, I don't believe you have half a plan, the eagle will be raised in the future, what should you do, have you thought about it?" After a pause, he said, "I shouldn't have asked these words, but Yuan admires your character, so I care about a few words, you are very similar to an old man of mine, Yuan is afraid that you will be like her in the future."
Xianglan lowered her head, staring at the snow on the ground without speaking.
Yuan Shaoren sighed: "I have been friends with Ying Yang since childhood, although I am many years older than him, I am like a brother." He has never regarded women as nothing, and no matter what kind of immortals, he will not be tired of it for a long time. But this is very good for you, the last time you ran to Yangzhou, he used all the troops under his command to look for you in the south of the Yangtze River, the prefecture and the county have received the notice order to find you, and if you can't find someone, it's like going crazy, this happened to this thing, he was afraid that he couldn't do it, and he told me when he closed his eyes in the village, if there is a day, let me take care of you. ”
