Chapter 9 The Ninth Chapter: The senior official of the Tibetan gold house is willing to be a concubine and sister Feng is a matchmaker

It is said that Baoyu came back from Aunt Xue and still came to Qiushuangzhai, and immediately forced Tanchun to talk to Mrs. Wang, while he waited bitterly in Qiushuangzhai.Unexpectedly, it was Tanchun's birthday today. When I came out of the garden, I first greeted Jia's mother, and then kowtowed to Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, so I had to deal with Aunt Zhao and listened to a few words that were neither salty nor dull. The nonsense made a lot of trouble, and he came back after a full meal, and Cui Mo then held a plate of birthday gifts. Baoyu had already been waiting under the eaves, and came up to him from a distance and asked, "How?" Tanchun couldn't help laughing and sighed: "You are also infatuated. It is an honor to be defeated by Xiaohong." Baoyu had no intention Joke, still have no mouth to press the result.Tanchun said: "I said it's useless to go. No, I'm back with a gray nose." Baoyu knew it was unsuccessful, sighed and bowed his head in silence.Tanchun couldn't bear to see it, and persuaded him: "You and I have a lot of heart in the mansion, and it's hard to do anything. According to me, it's better to find a brother and nephew who are good at activities and knowledgeable, and order them to help out. Maybe it's worth more." Reminding Baoyu with a word, he clapped his hands and said, "How come I forgot him. Except for this person, no one else has this ability." Then he bowed his hands to Tanchun and hurriedly resigned.

Looking at his back, Tanchun smiled and said, "My second brother, I'm not busy with other things anymore. I don't see him putting so much effort into serious business. I'm too busy to see the end for a girl." Thinking of this, he sighed again, feeling worried. He said, "Looking at it coldly, only the second brother is a good descendant of the two mansions, but he is not doing his job properly. In the future, who will he count on for his family's business?" So leaning on the railing, he became depressed. Suddenly I saw Xiangyun and Baoqin walking with a few little girls, carrying a kite, and said with a smile, "What are you staring at? It was the second elder brother who passed by just now? Why are you so flustered so early in the morning?" Tanchun didn't want to bring up the matter of Jia Huan, so he deliberately pretended to be watching the kite, and replied vaguely, "What business will he have? It's just those idle things." Then he asked, "Why are you so early?" Xiangyun said. : "It was Girl Qin who reminded me that today was the official day of the poetry club, and it was your birthday. Although it is inconvenient to handle the affairs of the second sister, it is better to start a club, where the sisters gather together, and the two sisters get together. Writing a few poems to pay tribute to the second sister can also relieve melancholy, which is better than being sad separately. How about it?"

Tanchun thought for a while and said, "Yes." Then he sent the little girl to invite Daiyu and Baochai to discuss, and then sighed, "Nowadays, there are fewer people in every commune. When will we get together again, and when we get together, will we get those people?" Xiangyun said, "It's fun to gather for a day, why bother to think about it." Baoqin just squatted on the ground with the little girl to insert the pole and install the thread. At that moment, Li Wan and Li Qi came first with a box of crisps. When they saw Li Qi, they all got up and said hello, and also asked about Li Wen's marriage.When Li Qi saw the kite, she wanted to fly it. Xiangyun said: "Don't worry, there is a light on the whistle, and it will look good when it is set up at night."

Then Xichun and Daiyu also arrived, both with congratulatory gifts. Xichun was a box of homemade jasmine heart incense, and Daiyu was a lake brush and a Duan inkstone. Bring back a tube of Nanhai tribute tea; the girl who sent to Yihong Courtyard said that Baoyu had gone out early in the morning and had not returned yet.Li Wan said: "Yesterday I vaguely heard that Brother Baoyu broke something. What's the reason? I didn't ask in detail because I had a lot of things." It's about smashing the tank.Everyone was taken aback and sighed: "Baoyu is too reckless, but in order to save people, things happen hastily, and it is a last resort." They also said, "I should go and see Sister Qiao, and I should also greet Miss Feng. ” Only Daiyu was shocked when she heard the news, and suddenly thought: Could it be because of me?At the moment, my heart was beating wildly, my mind was spinning, my face was red and white.

Everyone ignored it, and discussed the title of the poem again.Tanchun said: "Since this society was started by me, it is up to me to make a proposition. I think the source of all things cannot lack a word of water. Half of us here come here by wading, and we may have to cross the water again one day. Go. So this society is actually singing water. I also learned from the concubine Xiaoxiang's method last time, and wrote the water in the world. Whoever casts it will get it." Li Wan said: "This is not possible, it is a matter of casting lots , one time is a coincidence, and every time it is done in the same way, it will be inflexible, it is better to specify a few water topics, and whoever likes it can choose that one, so that there can be good poems."

Xiangyun and Baoqin also said it was wonderful.Xiangyun said first, "Let me say a few first, namely river, river, lake, and sea." Daiyu cheered up and said, "Then I will also say a few, that is, rain, dew, frost, and snow." Chundao: "There is enough rain and dew, and adding frost and snow, it feels far-fetched; the four waters of Zhenxia are also easy to interfere with each other. It's better to remove the river water and replace it with something more flexible." Xiuyan said: "Then It must be stream water. Streams, rivers, and the like are quite different from rivers, lakes, and seas."

Li Wan said: "Let's talk about a pool of water. Don't you hear that 'Peach Blossom Pond is a thousand feet deep, not as good as Wang Lun's love for me'? You can know that the last club chanted peach blossoms, and this club should sing about the pool water." Baoqin said : "Since you have a pool of water, I will add another waterfall. Although the predecessors have exhausted their writings of 'flying down three thousand feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way falls nine days', today I want to see if there are successors." Li Qi said : "Then I'll add another spring, 'Ask how clear the spring is, so that there is a source of living water'."

Saying that, Baochai also came, and after listening to everyone's discussion, he said, "springs and streams are a little bit offended, so it's better to keep only one." But they are connected, and they are not too delicate like streams." So they all wrote down one by one, but Baoyu still did not come. Everyone said: "Let's not wait for him, first assign the topic, and leave the one that no one chooses, so just give it to him. Who told him to be vacant." So Daiyu chose Lushui, Xiangyun chose Jiangshui, Tanchun is the sea, Baochai is the lake, Liwan is the pond water, Liqi is the rainwater, Xiuyan is the river water, Baoqin is the waterfall, and the remaining spring water is reserved for Baoyu.Xiangyun counted nine waters in total, so he smiled at Xichun and said, "It happens to be nine more, why don't you make up another one to make up ten." Ten is always eighty-nine, there are so many perfect things there. Besides, nine is already the supreme number. If it is not enough, ten must be regarded as beautiful, but it is too precise and forceful. According to me, these nine poems are just right. Don't have to do it again."

Baochai also said: "If you say that you write poems to make up for the number, it is not the original intention of poetry. If you force it, let alone one poem, how difficult is it to have ten poems? It is not beautiful if you just deliberately seek work. Don't you hear that the ninety-nine Chongyang, Kanglong has regrets? What's more, what Qin'er said just now: It is suspected that the Milky Way falls to the nine heavens. What we wrote today is water, and it is exactly nine poems, which coincides with the meaning in the poem. "Yu Gong "There is a saying: 'Nine rivers have a way'. It can be seen that nine is the extreme, why bother to add ten? Why don't you give the title of this spring water to Ouxie, Baoyu will come, and don't let him do it." Baoqin clapped his hands and said: " What my sister said is the best. Why don’t these nine poems be called ‘Nine Poems of the Milky Way’, don’t we all come from the sky?” Everyone who said it laughed and said: “This makes sense. , and elegant. After all, it is Mr. Hengwu."

While talking, Tanchun and Xichun had already transcribed the titles of the poems, and sure enough, they were all titled "Nine Poems of the Galaxy", and they were tied on the wall with butterfly needles.Everyone suffixed their names, and asked Tanchun to limit the rhyme. Tanchun said: "There is no need to limit the rhyme, but the form needs to be changed. It's better to fill in the lyrics. It's just that I've never been good at tuning. Just a small order is good. It's "Recalling How about "Jiangnan"?" Xiangyun said with a smile: "I have been talking about writing a poem for a long time, but when the title came out, it was "poetry". Xiaoling is the best, and it suits my liking." Tanchun said again: ""Recalling Jiangnan" breaks the title three One character, to explain what kind of water each person is singing about, and then to explain where they have seen this water. The middle couplet should be developed by itself. The last sentence should explain the identity of the poet. Let’s write it out in another day, not to explain which song is Who made it, maybe the second elder brother can guess it?" Everyone said: "This is novel and interesting, but it's too annoying." Then they thought about it.

Just at that time, silver-threaded birthday noodles were brought from the kitchen, so the sisters put aside the topic and ate noodles. Although the noodles were the same, the toppings and accompanying plates were colorful, and they were all served on porcelain plates inlaid with white lotus flowers and gold threads. There are twenty or thirty numbers of colorful and green, and a table is full, which is pretty good.Xiangyun first took a chopstick of Chinese toon sprouts mixed with sesame oil, which was fragrant and crisp, and cleared the mouth, and said with a smile, "This scrambled egg is good." Tanchun said: "It's not worth anything, you like it, tell it to the kitchen , just call it here." Then he ordered someone to go to the kitchen to spread the message. Baochai said again: "In the past, King Zhao of Qin set wine on the 3rd of the third month in the river bend. A man of gold came out from the east and held a sword with the heart of water and said: "Let the monarch rule the Xixia." The water temples, along the Han Dynasty, were all grand gatherings. Then on March 3, the scholars went out of the river and ponds to drink from the flowing cups of curved water. Although there are no golden men to hold the sword of the heart of water, how can there be no curved water? Cup?" Everyone said: "That's a good idea." Sure enough, when the wine came, Qi Jing Tanchun said, "It's the business of gentlemen and scholars to govern the country and the world. I was just born on the wrong day, Bao. My sister just made fun of these unofficial anecdotes, this glass of wine is actually not drinkable." Daiyu laughed and said, "It's just that you are living well today, and you will have to do something big in the future. Sister Bao said that there is no Shuixin sword at the banquet today. Don't you know that the king of Wu Helu once made generals to forge swords?" , Picking the essence of five mountains, combining the essence of five metals, but the gold and silver are not sold, and the iron juice is not available. The general said: "The former master Ouye Zeng said, if you can't make a sword, you must sacrifice a female body to the furnace god." His wife Mo Xie heard After that, he threw himself into the furnace, and the iron juice came out, turning into two swords, each engraved with characters, the male said "Gan Jiang", the female said "Mo Xie", and the rest of the steel that came out was also cast into three thousand sharp swords. It can be seen that there are swords , was originally the incarnation of a woman. Since you have the 'Nine Heads of the Galaxy' today, and you were born on March 3rd, you know that you are a sword god, so why do you need a golden man to present the Shuixin sword?" After hearing this, everyone cheered even more in unison.Li Wan said: "The two stories of Mr. Hengwu and Concubine Xiaoxiang are both well told, and it is more interesting to think about them together. Today, I will focus on these two allusions, and you must drink this glass of banana leaf wine." Can't help but say , Xiangyun and Baoqin pressed left and right, and Li Wan tried his best to fill Tanchun with a tall sunflower clock cast in silver for two minutes.They returned to their seats to eat noodles again. Although it was inconvenient to drink heavily, they gave way to each other once, and sent people to Yihong Courtyard several times to inquire whether Baoyu had returned. It turned out that Baoyu heard that Tanchun said that he should find a capable nephew for help, so he suddenly saved one person and hurried out of the garden.Do you know who he was thinking of?It turned out to be Jia Yun who sent Bai Haitang back that year.Immediately, he hurriedly ordered someone to find him, and before he could chat, he said, "Do you know Xiaohong, the girl who used to be in my room and then followed Sister Feng?" Jia Yun was surprised when she heard this, and said The private relationship was leaked, but Baoyu's expression didn't look like it. He hesitated and said vaguely: "I have some impressions. Uncle Bao just asks him what to do?" Drive him out of the mansion." Then he said again what he said about saving Qiaojie by smashing the vat, and said to Jia Yun, "I mean, you should find a convenient time to ask yourself, or discuss it with his old lady. , see if there is any way to help him, then I will apologize on my behalf. Otherwise, I will always feel sorry and flustered in my heart. " Only then did Jia Yun feel relieved and made up an idea earlier.It turned out that when he saw Hongyu, he secretly had an intention. Since Hongyu went to Sister Feng's place, he flattered Sister Feng again, and he had more opportunities to meet each other.Originally, he just wanted to wait for Hongyu to leave the house when he was old enough to go to the house to propose marriage. He was afraid that although Lin Zhixiao and his wife were slaves, they were more decent and powerful than him.Now that Hongyu was expelled, although he was surprised, he liked it, because he smiled and said: "Uncle Bao has an order, how dare my nephew refuse to obey. It must be done properly, and Uncle Bao should not worry about it. Maybe, In the end, Uncle Bao has to say something about this matter." Baoyu hurriedly asked: "What?" Jia Yun said with a smile: "Let's not talk about him, I haven't written a word yet, anyway, I will know in a day or two Yes. But what Uncle Bao told me to do last time, I haven’t been able to do it well so far, and it’s hard to see Uncle Bao.” Baoyu looked left and right, and deliberately found a reason to spend all the people in front of him. This side asked in a low voice, "Are you talking about Fang Guaner? How is he now?" Jia Yun sighed, "The nuns and monks in the two mansions are supervised. The one was Qin Laosi from the third room, he was stingy by nature, as long as he saw the money, he would not care about any kind of courtesy, and later, the old nun Jing Xu from Shuiyue Nunnery was also a dare to pull out a tooth in a tiger's mouth It is sold on the street, oiled on the awl—it’s treacherous and slippery, and the eyes are wide open, only seeing the money. I and they are usually in the same boat, if I ask him without authorization, he knows that I have leaked the truth, I’m afraid How many unbearable things have to be done when the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry. At that time, I have no right to govern him. Therefore, according to me, the higher-ups have to inquire about this matter in person, otherwise, even if it is exposed, it will not be worthwhile." Hearing what he said, Baoyu guessed that there was someone else behind Jia Qin. Besides, there were occasional rumors in recent days, and he guessed a little that it must be the men in Ningfu. Lian's second brother and Feng's sister know?" Jia Yun said: "He is in charge of monks and nuns, and he is an errand sent by Lian's second uncle and second grandmother. I will tell, but my aunt is not good-looking, but it seems that I am busy and jealous. , deliberately telling stories." Baoyu knew that he avoided suspicion, and thought that if he told the master and wife by himself, he would definitely ask these things, and where did you know that it would be wrong? It's not good if you get sick for a while.He was not good at dealing with these people and the world, but when the incident came, he had no idea, he just sighed: "Even Buddhism is like this, is there a clean place in this world?" Jia Yun also knew that he could do nothing, and offered advice: "As far as I'm concerned, Uncle Bao doesn't need to take care of their business. The pustules are covered in his robes - it won't take long to hide it anyway. When things come out, they will always be punished. If you are worried about Fang Guan, it's better to ask a personal servant to talk to him directly. In the nunnery, it is said that this Fangguan was originally his uncle's beloved, and told them that all food, clothing and utensils should be rationed from the abundance, and that they should not ask him to do too much work. They just borrowed their place to recuperate for a few days, and they will take it back anyway. It’s from the garden, that’s it.” After thinking about it, Baoyu had no choice but to come out of the garden in person and whisper something to Mingyan.That Mingyan was originally a troublesome person, so he took the package and said: "Don't worry, the second master, I will prepare some vegetarian Ge robes, take a car and take it directly to Shuiyue Nunnery, and name the second master to reward Fangguan. Ask the old bald man Jingxu to come out and answer. Seeing the situation, he must be convinced and dare not rub Miss Fangguan again." Baoyu said, "That's it." He gave Mingyan some money and told him to do it quickly. That Mingyan has a three-foot wave on the flat ground. Since Baoyu personally instructed him, he has money, and he has Manli in his hand, how can he act cheaply?Then he thought for a while, and looked in the backyard for hoeing medicine, sweeping red, ink rain, picking clouds, citing springs, and accompanying cranes. Zhang Zhang said: "This is the time for us to work for the second master. Everyone must be like this, and you must not hide traitors." Those people are not willing to save trouble, and they agreed without saying a word, and they really set up a car, bought some oil, rice, incense candles, etc., and they will be like a naughty couple in the usual place. A young boy, mighty and powerful, he only said to give alms in the nunnery, and the mountain gate thundered. When Jingxu heard that the alms-giving was coming from the Rongfu, he was overjoyed to come out to greet him personally, saw several of them, but didn't recognize them.Ming Yan stepped on the shaft of the car, and said with a smirk: "Second Lord sent us to deliver sesame oil, why don't you kneel down to accept the reward, and just stare at your old and dim-witted eyes? Could it be that you can't recognize your uncle Ming? Or Seeing how handsome you are, Uncle Ming, do you want to recruit him as a son-in-law?" Jingxu knows Mingyan's name, because he often walks around in the mansion, the servants who have some dignity have already remembered it by heart, knowing that he is the first young servant who is proud to get close to Second Master Bao, so he hastily covered his face He laughed and said flatteringly: "It turned out to be Uncle Ming. The old nun's eyesight is clumsy, so I didn't recognize it for a while." He hurriedly asked the little nun to pour good fragrant tea.Mingyan then sat on the bench, and while watching the aunts collecting fragrant rice, she asked Jingxu: "Miss Fangguan in the second master's room was kidnapped by you in this nunnery? The second master really misses her." , I want us to come and see him, in a few days, the second master will come to pick him up in person." Some time ago when Baoyu came to see Fangguan, Jingxu had learned from his aunt, and hearing Mingyan's unfriendly tone, he hurriedly smiled and said: "This is very unfortunate, I didn't know that Master Ming came here, and sent Fangguan away yesterday. I have an errand to Tiekan Temple. I don’t know when Master Bao will come, so tell the old nun to make preparations.” Mingyan didn't even answer, kicked the stool flying, and then exploded: "No errand in the morning and no errand in the evening, but you, Mr. Ming, came here and said that you sent him on an errand. You don't have to lie to me, that official Fang said last time." We've seen it before, with a face like a rotten eggplant that you smashed. You sent him out in broad daylight. Aren't you afraid of frightening people? You must have hidden him. Look at the things we don't know about you! Your uncle Ming seven Small head, eight eyes, smooth ears, exquisite seven orifices, what do you not know? Since you say that Fang Guan is not here, let us search if you have the guts, but don't tell us to find it!" Immediately with a wave of his arms, all the young men followed suit They rushed forward, just looking for someone, kicking and smashing, throwing and throwing, the aunts stopped one, but couldn't stop the other, and they only called "Amitabha" and "sin, sin". For a while, Sweeping Red found some makeup, powder, wine, etc. in the room, and yelled for everyone to see. Seeing Mingyan, he was more reasonable, pointing and asking: "Well, you wine and meat nun, is this also for worshiping Buddha? Stuff? Is it because your Arhat is good at drinking, or because your Guanyin likes to dress up?" Then he smashed the wine jar to pieces, throwing all the cosmetics and flower crowns on the ground.Jingxu originally only thought that he was standing out for Fang Guan, but when he saw that his malpractice was found out, he knew that there was another agency. He only suspected that there was a secret order in the mansion to make Ming Yan act like this, so he didn't dare to say anything, but bowed his head and recited the Buddha's name. That's all. In addition, although Jia Yun and Jia Qin have no fault, just because they both work under the command of Sister Feng and Jia Lian, it is inevitable that the mountains are high and the water is low, and the chickens are fighting with the goose.Since Jia Qin took charge of Tiekan Temple, he brought money and food supplies to the mansion every month, which was worth a hundred taels. With the help of Shuiyue nunnery, he often forced those nuns and Taoist nuns to dress up to serve wine, and the income was tangled. The head of the house also paid filial piety to him. Every day, he either sat in a sedan chair or rode a donkey, ate Fengyue wine, spent money on cosmetics, and went in and out of the two houses, very ostentatiously.The children of the family often talk about wealth than expensive, and they often say that Jia Yun is not as good as him.Since Jia Yun knew all the details, it was inevitable that she felt dissatisfied. It was only because of Zhen and Lian's embarrassment that she didn't make such a bad breath until today.Immediately after inquiring about what Mingyan did in Shuiyue Nunnery, he thought he had a plan, went to the street to take a clean bath in the hall, changed into decent clothes, and bought a lot of seasonal fruits, bad fish and bacon , carrying it up to the door of Lin's house. Fang walked to Xie Street, and suddenly heard a burst of laughter that was very familiar. When he looked up, he saw a group of people coming from there, surrounded by Jia Qiang, all in fresh clothes and hats, drunk from eating.Seeing Jia Yun, she stopped with a smile and asked him, "Second, where are you going?" Jia Yun hurriedly cupped her hands and said with a smile, "Because I want to accompany my mother to meet a guest tomorrow, I'm here to buy some fruit for preparation." Qiang smiled and said: "What a great deal. It's better to meet by chance than to invite you, why not come to my place and introduce you to some good friends." Jia Yun has already seen that the group of people behind Jia Qiang are young sons in gorgeous clothes and crowns, and knows that Jia Qiang is favored by Jia Zhen and has a good relationship with Jia Rong, which is far more decent and powerful than herself. There is no chance to climb, and now I am invited, why not follow.Immediately cupped his hands and said: "But it's disrespectful, so I'll bother you." So they walked together arm in arm, and meandered to a courtyard, but it was not a big house bought and gifted by Jia Zhen outside the mansion, but a very quiet and elegant courtyard in the deep street. It was small and deep, with several plants planted along the wall. There is a weeping willow, a bush of roses, and under the tree are carved wisteria lounge chairs, coffee tables, spit boxes and other things. There is still a pipa on the coffee table, which is very elegant and clean.Just as Jia Yun was suspicious, a very clever girl came up to her and said, "Young lady woke up this morning and vomited a few more mouthfuls of blood. I have invited the doctor to come and see her. She just took medicine and fell asleep. Gentlemen." Why don't you go sit somewhere else and come back later." Sure enough, Jia Qiang stood on her feet and said, "In that case, I'll come back later." Then she closed the door and came out, saying to the crowd, "Well, let's go to my room." Those people laughed and said, "" Walking around, my legs are weak, besides, I've been making trouble for half a day, so I should leave. It's just a big empty house over there, what's the fun? I wanted to come here to beg the lady of Lingguan to sing a song. Since the girl is not well, Why don't we get together some other day." Saying that, he coaxed them to disperse.Jia Yun also made an appointment to meet again, said goodbye and left.As he walked, he thought to himself: When the Grand View Garden dismissed the twelve little opera singers, I heard that most of them were assigned to serve in each house, but there were only three resigned houses: Xiaosheng Baoguan, Zhengdan Yuguan, and Xiaodanlingguan. and go.At that time, everyone laughed and said, "It's a coincidence that only 'Bao, Yu' and 'Miss Ling (Lin)' left." All of my problems are similar, so I can remember them clearly.It turns out that this old official was taken in by Jia Qiang here to hide in the golden house. I don't know if Jia Zhen and others know.Since he lives in another house, he is trying to deceive others; seeing that he calls friends and friends here, he doesn't seem to avoid people. I don't know what that means. Thinking all the way, he has come to Lin Zhixiao's gate.Lin Zhixiao didn't return to discuss matters in the mansion, only Hongyu and his mother were guarding the chicken foot lamp and wearing beads and flowers.Seeing Jia Yun coming, Hongyu guessed eighty-nine in her heart, and hurriedly avoided the house.Aunt Lin knew where they were, and she only thought that Jia Yun was looking for Lin Zhixiao to ask for a job, so she ordered the little girl to make jasmine tea, and said with a smile: "Brother Yun is working in front of the second grandma, who doesn't boast of his ability?" If you want to make a fortune in the near future, why come to us again.” Jia Yun said with a smile: “Auntie said that. I just learned to do some odd jobs in the mansion, and I will be able to make a fortune there. Go up to the top. Besides, I have always taken care of you two, so I should have come to the door to thank you." After praising Lin Zhixiao and his wife for being smart and capable, and also praising Hongyu for being both talented and smart, finally Fang slowly raised his intention to propose marriage Come, just say: "box dowry rings, gold-woven clothes, auntie just say, come here today, three teas and six rituals, don't dare to neglect, always make auntie satisfied." Aunt Lin was surprised when she heard this, but she was also happy.He begged Baoyu to intercede, knowing in his heart that it was probably unsuccessful. He also thought that although Jia Yun was poor, he was also a descendant of the Jia family, and he gained power in front of Sister Feng. Heart high and ambition big.Seeing his kind words and courteous manner, driving me to talk about one aunt after another, my heart softened.Although he didn't agree very much, he was also warm-hearted. He only said that he would wait for the head of the family to come back to discuss, and sent Jia Yun out with warm words.When Lin Zhixiao came back, Mrs. Lin baked pretzels and served them, and prepared four more dishes, such as bad anchovies, steamed eggplant with fried tofu, stir-fried cucumbers with bean paste and shrimp paste, cooked and peeled pork knuckles in braised sauce, and another big dish. A bowl of hot and oily bacon and bamboo shoot soup, poured another cup of official brewed sorghum wine for him to eat, and deliberately asked: "How does this dish taste today?" Lin Zhixiao said: "I was just about to ask you, Where did the bad shad come from? What is the price in the market now, and it is what we usually eat? Just be so extravagant." Aunt Lin laughed and said, "Who has the wrong money to buy him. Let me tell you, these fish are worth a penny. No flowers, but he swam ashore, jumped into the salt vat, and came to our house by himself." Lin Zhixiao knew the reason, and said with a smile, "this fish knows how to be filial." Mrs. Lin said, "it's not No matter how filial someone is, you can guess right away, if you can guess who it is, I will obey you." Lin Zhixiao guessed wildly, but it was not true.Hong Yuniang explained the reason why Jia Yun came here today, and said politely: "Since my daughter has come out, I'm afraid it will be difficult to go back. Besides, our family doesn't expect him to live on a penny. What did he plan to become, for the sake of having a son, he had to be sent to the mansion, and he was cooped up in the Yihong courtyard for those years as a rough envoy, and he had hoped to be released in a few years in a calm manner, but who knows I actually followed the second mistress again, although it was a decent thing, but that day I was not worried, afraid, looking for spittle in the tiger's mouth-it was difficult to get some. The two of us serving in the house are enough, Is that money easy to earn? No need to put an only daughter in it. Besides, being kicked out now, what kind of reputation is it? If you just keep it at home and wait for the mansion to sell it for a match, you know what it is The end? Although Brother Yun is not an authentic direct descendant, he is also a master, and he is not one of those flamboyant children. She is also old-fashioned and winks, and recently she is very respectable in front of the second mistress, and she doesn't treat girls like maids, which shows that she married a couple with flat hair in the past, combed her hair three times, and dressed in two parts, only a little less than the grandma in the house He wears gold and silver, but his identity is the same. If you don't want him to suffer, you can pay more dowry, even if you spend some silver, it's okay to buy two little girls as compensation." Lin Zhixiao also said: "You're right. "He said again, "Since this is the case, Hongyu is the person second grandma has entrusted. If she wants to marry someone, she should tell her second grandma. Otherwise, she will be angry. Besides, she must be willing to let her go." Aunt Lin agreed.In the morning of the next day, I first told my daughter why Hongyu didn't want to, although she only said "it's up to the mother and father", but with her red cheeks and bowed head, she was clearly very willing.Lin Zhixiao's family saw it, and he knew it well, so he sighed secretly.And when I came into the mansion, I was busy with many trivial matters for a long time, until I found a free time after lunch and came to Sister Feng's courtyard. Sister Feng reported Caixia's death because Wang'er's family came to report Caixia's death, so she asked for money for burial.Sister Feng agreed, and sent Wang'er's family away.Yin sighed to Ping'er: "It's rare that I wanted to do a good thing, but I didn't do it. It can be seen that God does not allow me to accumulate good deeds." Ping'er wiped his tears and said, "Caixia has been in the mansion for several years, and I was a very good sister. I want to take half a day off with my grandma, so I can go and see her off in person." Sister Feng nodded and said, "Go ahead, I have nothing else to accumulate, so if you go and see him off, it will be considered that I have been there. Take care of me. I will apologize to him and say that I have harmed him." Ping'er persuaded: "What kind of words are you talking about? Grandma also means well, this is his life, but it has nothing to do with anyone else." Sister Feng said: "It's hard to say. It’s just that I have the intention to do another good thing, but I don’t know if it will be successful or not.” Ping'er hurriedly asked what was the matter, and Sister Feng said: "Xiao Hongbai has been with me for a while, and she is always careful to wait on her, but one of them was accidentally kicked out by his wife. I missed Qiaojie because of him, and I didn't have the intention to keep him. Now my sister It's not a big deal. I think this matter has nothing to do with him, so don't blame him for nothing. You can find a spare time for me to go and see him. If there is anything you can do to help, you can finish your worries for him; otherwise , just free her worth and money, let her go for nothing, and he will serve me in vain." Ping'er said happily: "As expected, it is the great kindness of grandma. People in the world often say how the immeasurable Buddhas in the West are so powerful. , the mana is boundless, but most of them worship Avalokitesvara, chanting "Great Mercy and Great Compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva", which shows that this "Great Mercy and Great Compassion" is more popular than "Supernatural Powers." After hearing this, Sister Feng laughed out of anger : "Your hoof is getting worse and worse, even I am joking." As Fang said, Lin Zhixiao's family had already come in, first greeted her, and then asked about Qiao's illness, then slowly replied: "Since Xiaohong went out before, our old couple almost turned gray I just hate him for not opening his eyes. Losing his job is a small matter, but losing grandma's face is a big matter. So I want to quickly find a marriage for him and get rid of it. If there is nothing left, I will stay in the room and slap my face. A matchmaker just happened to say that in the past The second master Yun whom grandma promoted didn't dislike him and was willing to marry him. It's just that Xiaohong has been with grandma all these years, and grandma loves him like her own child. We dare not make decisions about his life. So come and ask grandma to show you." When Sister Feng saw him coming, she only thought he wanted to intercede for her daughter, so she refused to take the initiative to say that she would release Xiaohong to redeem her body. Seeing that Lin Zhixiao's family had no intention of complaining, she was still blindly flattering, but she was a little embarrassed, laughing. Said: "That kid Yun'er has eyesight, I don't know when he got this idea, I don't know at all." Lin Zhixiao's family hurriedly said: "Since he responds to grandma in his daily communication, he sees the girl once or twice. , Recently I heard that I went out of the mansion, so I have such thoughts. If you say that you have it in the past, you definitely can't, even if he has it, we will not allow our daughter to do such a shameless thing." Sister Feng still pondered to herself.Ping'er hastily repeated Sister Caifeng's words just now on purpose, and Mrs. Lin listened, and she had no words to thank. Unexpectedly, Jia Yun over there asked Baoyu to come again, and also said to propose marriage for Jia Yun. Sister Feng smiled and said, "It's rare that you are so nostalgic and willing to stand up for them. If I stop, I will beat the mandarin ducks with a stick. " Then he agreed, willing to be the guarantor, and ordered Baoyu to be the matchmaker.Aunt Lin felt that she had a good face, and she liked it very much. She went home and talked with Lin Zhixiao and Hongyu, and they were all very happy.The marriage between Jia Yun and Hongyu was settled in this way, and they just waited for a lucky marriage.Hongyu felt that she would be dependable throughout her life, and she was proud of turning a disaster into a happy event, so she didn't talk about going back to her home, she just stayed at home and waited to get married.do not mention. In addition, Baoyu made Jia Yun and Hongyu's marriage very happy and happy, because he smiled to Sister Feng: "Sister Feng can teach people after all. Xiaohong couldn't show her mountains and dews in my house all those years, so she went to her sister's house for a few days." My God, it's just like a beautiful woman who is out of the way, even someone as clever as Yun'er has been selected." Sister Feng laughed and said, "I heard from your brother that you used to recognize Yun'er as a godson, but do you have such a saying? Baoyu smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's all a job when I was young. Why mention him?" Sister Feng laughed and said, "Do you know that Xiaohong's mother is my goddaughter? You have made their marriage, and you have to be called from now on." I'm now an aunt." The waiters next to him laughed, and Baoyu was even more embarrassed. Sister Feng said again: "Speaking of this little red, there is a coincidence with your sister Lin." Baoyu hurriedly asked why it happened, and Sister Feng smiled and said that Xiaohong's original name was Lin Hongyu, just to emphasize the relationship between Baoyu and Daiyu. So I changed it to Hongyu, because I said: "This time I left the garden, and I was looking at getting married, so I naturally had to return to the original name. One is called Lin Daiyu and the other is called Lin Hongyu. Why isn't it a coincidence?" Baoyu said with a smile: "It's really a coincidence, but it sounds like the names of a pair of sisters. Dai is green, one is green and the other is red, and they match and correspond. There is no such thing as a coincidence. My place is called Yihong Courtyard, and it is also called Yihong Courtyard." It's called Jiang Yunxuan, and Jiang is also Hong, which overwhelms the names of Yun'er and Xiaohong. It can be seen that the fate is a coincidence, and it has been foreshadowed." As he spoke, another thought came to his mind, thinking that Jia Yun, like himself, was also ranked Second, now they are married to Xiaohong; since the second master of Langxia and Lin Hongyu finally got married, how do you know that it does not mean that the marriage between the second master of treasure and Lin Daiyu is imminent?So I shook my head and couldn't help but laugh.Seeing that he was so excited, Sister Feng guessed a little bit, because she said: "I don't think as much as you who read and write poems. A name also has these sayings. It's just a reminder to you, let's talk about it here, wait a minute." I saw you, Sister Lin, don't talk nonsense, he should be angry again when he hears you mentioning him and the girl's name together." Just as he was talking, Yuchuan came to invite him, saying that his wife was talking to the second grandmother.So Baoyu resigned, first went to the outer study to find Jia Yun, told the matter, and said with a smile: "Ms. Lin has already received the letter, and she went there with a thousand gratitude. Now that this matter is complete, what do you have to thank?" Me?" Jia Yun said with a smile: "Uncle Bao may not be interested in the moving of mountains of gold and silver. Instead, he will do a few things for Uncle Bao in a down-to-earth manner, show a little filial piety, and find rare flowers and plants to send a few pots, or treasures. Uncle looked happier." Suddenly Mingyan hurried over to tell him that he had just seen Jia Yucun's sedan chair entering the door, and he was afraid that he would ask to see the second master by name later.Baoyu frowned and said, "I hate these people the most in my life, but I see him everywhere I go. My son was celebrating his birthday at the Prince's Mansion in Beijing, and I saw him sitting with a group of officials there." Then he said to Mingyan, "If The master came to me and said that the Beijing Palace invited me to drink." Mingyan said with a bitter face: "Come on, if the master finds out about this, he will be beaten to death. Besides, the second master is not in the mansion, how can I fall? Is Xian (salty) here to marinate dried meat? Are you talking about it?" Jia Yun said with a smile: "Monkey bastard is pretending not to wait now, how prestige was he in Shuiyue nunnery?" Ming Yan then laughed, and for a moment he was so proud that he patted his chest and said: "For the second master's business, the tea fireworks come in the fire, and the water goes in the water, and I was beaten to death by the master. I just said that I didn't see the second master." .” Baoyu smiled and said goodbye to Jia Yun and re-entered the garden.Afraid that the maid would come to look for her, she didn't go back to her room, so she just walked around the Huaxu area to enjoy the beautiful spring scenery, red apricots and willows.忽见柳遮杏闹处忽的飞起一人，倒唬了一跳，定睛再看，却又不见了，正诧异间，忽然又飞荡过来，又听到树后有女子语笑声，才知道是有人在打秋千，细听那声音，似探春又似湘云，及欲看那人，只见他大红裙子扬起在风中，直如飞仙一般，悠来荡去，却辨不清脸面。 因一路分花拂柳走近来，只见探春和待书在一旁拿着衣裳、环佩等物，翠缕正推送一人荡秋千，方知是湘云，笑道：“你们倒顽的高兴，怎不叫我来推？”又说，“云妹妹抓紧了，小心掉下来。” 一时湘云停了秋千下来，鸦鬓微斜，粉脸生津，拭着汗笑道：“昨儿我们那些人等着你开社，且是蕉下客的芳诞，到处找你不见，这会子又做什么来了？”宝玉道：“我教丫头送去的一字一画，三妹妹收到了么？”又问要不要打秋千，自己来送。探春便也脱了织锦夹纱花枝俏的通袖袍子，露出粉白对襟琵琶小袄，下边系着杏红百裥绣花缎的唐裙，又束一束腰带，便蹬在画板之上，两手握了彩绳，道：“行了。”宝玉便推送起来，起初不敢用力，只微微荡起，湘云笑道：“打秋千一定要到高处才有好风景，只管这样悠着，倒不如坐下来了。”宝玉这才微微用力，探春还叫再高些。 又打一会儿，探春已领悟得其中诀窍，也不必宝玉推送，只自己腰间暗暗用力，双腿绷的直直的微微一蹬一踏，画板已起在半天云里，杏红裙子舞的一面旗似，露出底下松花绿的绑腿膝裤，大红高帮满绣缎子鞋，直欲飞到九重霄去。宝玉见用不着自己，遂退在一旁观看，点头叹道：“金履飞登杨柳翠，湘裙漫卷杏花红。斯情斯景，便是曹衣、吴带，也不能形容的。” 翠缕伏侍着湘云穿上大衣裳，又将金麒麟、荷包等物一一系回。宝玉见了，忽想起一事来，向湘云道：“我从前送你的那只金麒麟哪里去了？”湘云脸上一红，反诘道：“沉甸甸的问他作甚？”宝玉道：“前几日冯紫英邀我去他家坐席，说是边境紧张，随时便要奉命开拔的，所以在家里设了靶场、跤场，每每招些子弟前来较艺，其实不过是找个由头时常聚聚。那日射圃，恰遇着威武将军的公子卫若兰，腰间也系着这么一只麒麟，光彩闪烁，很像我送你的那只，所以问起。”湘云低了头不答，翠缕却掩口而笑。 宝玉蓦然省起，喜道：“早听说妹妹有了人家，一直不曾问起是谁家有这样福份，原来竟是他！真真好个人物，不枉了妹妹平素为人。那卫若兰人物风流，武功了得，与妹妹恰可称作一对儿神仙眷侣。”知道史家拿自己送的金麒麟与卫家做文定，倒觉欢喜，笑眯眯瞅着湘云不住点头。湘云更加羞涩难当，恰见探春秋千慢下来，似欲停住，忙上前假装接应，就势避开。宝玉便也过去帮着搂住彩绳。探春下来说道：“刚才远远看见玉钏儿过来，东张西望的，不知找谁？” 说着，玉钏已到跟前，看到宝玉，猛的一拍手道：“叫我好找，原来却在这里。太太要见你呢。”宝玉一时不解，只当仍是为着贾雨村之故，笑道：“你说清楚些，是老爷找我还是太太找我。”玉钏儿嗔道：“老爷找你，却与我们什么相干？自然是太太要找你，才命我来传。袭人说你一早出去不见回来，茗烟又撒谎吊猴儿说没看见。我想着刚才明明见你在二奶奶屋里说话，怎会眨眼就飞了不成？所以进园子来，若不是看见三姑娘荡秋千，还找不到这里来。”探春笑道：“我只道自己在秋千上可以看的高远，原来他在地面上看我，却也看的真切。”众人都笑起来。 宝玉因随玉钏儿来至王夫人房中，见王夫人正坐着翻黄历本子，见他来了，且不理他，只望着凤姐说道：“几次说要让宝玉搬出来，总因这忙那忙，误到如今。难得这些日子天气晴朗，正好把这件事着紧办起来。所以我今天找你来，特地说给你知道，从明儿起宝玉就不住在园里了，一概用度开销当减则减，除了跟出来随身伏侍的这几个丫头外，怡红院只留两个守夜嬷嬷负责打扫，其余小丫头随你分给别的姐妹使吧。” 凤姐儿只得答应了，因怕还有别的吩咐，便不敢去。宝玉听了这话，却恰如兜头浇了一盆冷水也似，虽然早知道有今日，宁可捱一日是一日的，因此涎着脸求道：“太太何苦急在这几天？自从二姐姐死了，宝姐姐又迁出园子，如今那里好不冷清，我再要搬出来，越发没人了。好歹让我送了琴妹妹、云妹妹出嫁，再搬出来吧。” 王夫人冷着脸道：“正是为园中姊妹多半已经有了人家，你也眼瞅着要成家的人，若再像从前那般只管在园里住着，姐妹堆里厮混，一时有个不妨头，乱说话，传出些什么不好听的来，倒把大事耽误了。所以不如尽早搬出来，省的我日夜悬心。”宝玉听到“成家”一句，却打了一个突，因问：“谁要成家？同谁成家？”王夫人笑道：“你还做梦呢。早在二月里你大姐姐行前，就叫宫里太监传下话来，说宝姑娘德性温良，举止沉重，品貌学问都是第一等的，因此替你做主，连日子都定好了，只等回京就要替你们完婚。你们从小和睦，如今亲上做亲，你可喜欢？” 宝玉不惊反笑道：“太太哄我呢。便要赐婚，也该给我和林妹妹赐婚才是，怎么倒是宝姐姐？可是太太弄错了？或者大姐姐弄错了也未可知。等大姐姐回来，我必要在他面前分争明白的。”王夫人斥道：“真是糊涂话。婚姻大事，怎么会弄错？我亲耳听跟娘娘的抱琴说，那日娘娘省亲，叫你们姊妹每人做一首诗出来。你一个人独做四首，在那里为难。宝姑娘走来提醒了你一句什么'怡红快绿'，说是'娘娘不喜欢的你偏要写，不如改了'；那林姑娘却自恃聪明，替你做了一首'杏帘在望'教你打小抄儿，只当别人都是傻子。岂不知太监宫女站了一屋子，难道都是木偶摆设，聋子瞎子？他们在宫里，什么不知，什么不解，生平最会的就是察言观色，那容你们在娘娘眼皮子底下捣鬼？”宝玉辩道：“娘娘当时还夸了林妹妹做的好，说四首诗里以此为佳，怎么倒责怪起来？我不信。” 王夫人冷笑道：“娘娘当时并不知道你们的把戏，所以夸奖；及后来回宫听人说了，才知道竟被你们合谋蒙在鼓里，焉得不怒？说句重话，这便是欺君之罪。你还指望他顾惜你林妹妹不成？所以我说他轻狂，不知轻重，真要帮你，就该像宝姑娘那样，细心体上，揣摩着娘娘的心思眼色行事，这才是识大体、知轻重的千金闺秀，才是真心为你好。这样的贤德之妻，便打着灯笼，那里再找第二个去？所以你姐姐那时便取中了他。要不后来端午节赏赐众人，怎么独他的那份和你一样呢？” 宝玉听了这话，又似有理，不由的不信。却终难平服，知道与母亲强辩无益，只道：“我找老太太说去。”王夫人厉喝道：“打量老太太便会帮你，容你胡来么？别说娘娘已经给你赐婚宝姑娘，就是没有赐婚，林姑娘也已经是有人家了的，何容你再存什么别的想头？”宝玉听了，三魂轰去，七魄不全，大惊道：“林妹妹有了人家？这是那里的话？”王夫人冷笑道：“你还不信呢。就是今儿早上，北静王府里请了从前教过林姑娘的先生贾雨村问名说媒，不几日就要定茶换盅，下催妆冠帔花粉的。你不信，只管问老太太去。” 王熙凤听到“贾雨村”三字，便想到娘娘所赐“假画”，不由心中一动。不及深思，却见宝玉听了这话，脸也青了，眼也直了，一跳三丈高，顾不的礼数，大叫一声“我找老太太去”，转身便跑，不提防绊在门槛上，一跤跌倒，连头皮也擦破了。彩云、玉钏儿忙过来搀扶，连站在门外廊檐下侍候传唤的绣鸾、绣凤等也都唬了一跳，忙近前来，王夫人见宝玉额头上一缕血痕直流下来，几乎迷了眼睛，也惊慌起来，一迭声的叫人拿药水来搽。宝玉却一声不响，推开众人，牵起衣裳仍然只管向外跑。任由王夫人、凤姐在身后直着脖子叫唤，只不理会。 一径跑至贾母房中。贾母正坐在椅上，满面泪痕，看见宝玉头破血流的进来，一把搂进怀里，哭道：“你林妹妹要嫁人了，你知道么？”宝玉只觉凭空打了个焦雷，砸的天昏地暗，站立不稳，从怀里挣开问道：“怎么老祖宗也来哄我？”贾母道：“那里哄你？北静王爷已经再三再四致意，今天又请了那什么雨村过来，催着府里送庚贴儿过去，说是一两天内，就要抬聘礼来呢。”又回身叫人绞毛巾来给宝玉擦脸。鸳鸯早已拿了止血药水来，却交在琥珀手中。琥珀便上前替他搽着。 宝玉头昏目眩，如在梦中一般，药水搽在头上也不知疼，恍恍惚惚挡开琥珀手道：“从前老祖宗亲口说的'不是冤家不聚头'的话，难道竟白说了？我的心老太太横竖是知道的，可知从小到大，我心里眼里就只有林妹妹一个，老太太也说林妹妹好，怎么竟舍的把他送给别家？那是要了孙儿的命了。老祖宗疼我，再不肯这样对我的。” 贾母哭道：“我的儿，何尝是我想把你林妹妹配人？实是北静王府权高势贵，他们三番四次托人来问，咱们只装聋作哑不理会，实指望拖到你大姐姐回京，再想法子回应，这都为的是谁？偏是你这个惹祸的孽障，鬼使神差的，又拿铁架子把那只碧玉缸打碎，连鱼也死了，如今王爷已经知道，虽不肯问罪，焉知心里不存疑？我们再扣着你妹妹不肯允他婚事，眼见就要大祸临头了。那时不但你林妹妹保不住，只怕这个家也要散了。” 宝玉听了，心里约略有些明白过来，才知自己方是始作俑者，更加大哭起来，说：“缸是我砸的，有罪我去领，这便去王府里分说明白，凭杀凭剐，都随他们，有我活着一天，决不叫妹妹去。”又说，“若领不下，宁可与妹妹一同死了，想妹妹也是愿意的。” 说着，王夫人已经扶着丫环，同凤姐两个喘吁吁的过来，听了宝玉这话，怒道：“又胡说了，好好的寻死觅活，婚嫁是喜事，如何只说到忌讳上头？你妹妹去那府里，是做王妃，并非寻常妾侍，北静王爷爱才慕贤，你是知道的，如今他不肯托请寻常官媒，却巴巴儿地找了林姑娘的业师贾雨村来下帖，可见至诚；况且从前北静太妃也曾亲口对老太太许可的，说进门就要封诰，花钗九树，凤冠霞帔，所有礼遇用度，都与正妃一样。这是光耀门楣的大喜事，便是你林姑妈、姑夫在世，想必也是愿意的。你正该替你妹妹高兴才是，如何只说这些不吉利的话？叫你老子听见，皮不剥了你的。”宝玉不管不顾，大哭道：“太太不知道我们的事。岂知我们是不怕死的，就只怕活着不能在一处好好的活。二姐姐已经死了，云妹妹、琴妹妹也都有了人家，虽然三妹妹、四妹妹的事还没定，想来不久也都是要散的，留下宝玉一个孤魂野鬼儿，活着还有什么意思？宝玉这辈子并不求别的，只愿跟林妹妹一起，要活，一同长命百岁；要死，一同化烟化灰。如今你们又要送林妹妹走，还把宝玉留下来做甚？宝玉宁可这会儿跟妹妹一同死了，倒还干净些。凭他是王爷还是皇上，妹妹又何曾是攀龙附凤、贪慕权贵之人，都看作庸猪俗狗罢了。” 众人听他说的大胆，都忙上前劝慰，用话遮掩。宝玉那肯理会，只跪在贾母身前，插葱也似磕下头去，口口声声只叫“老祖宗救我”。贾母见他这样，越发哭的涕泪横流，拍胸叫道：“我那世里造下孽来，有了这两个玉儿，竟不是孙子孙女儿，竟是前世里冤家，可可的要我的命来了。” 凤姐见不是事，劝了贾母又拉宝玉，因道：“娘娘尚未回京，这件事或者还有回旋余地，咱们倒不必自乱阵脚。横竖日子还早，慢慢的想法儿，三个臭皮匠还抵出一个诸葛亮来呢，大家不用慌，事到临头，我自有主张。如今还有一句话说：这件事还得先瞒着林妹妹才是，不然，他那病身子只怕抵不住。不知老太太、太太以为如何？”王夫人怪道：“这是他的大喜事，听见了自然高兴，岂有不乐反病之理？” 凤姐见王夫人一味愚钝，只得忍气吞声，笑道：“太太说的自是大道理。只是林妹妹自小在府里长大，忽然说要出嫁，怎么不惊心伤感呢？他的心思又重，身子又单薄，况且我听说他这些日子本来不好，倒是迟些日子等他安健了，再慢慢儿的说给他不迟。”贾母道：“这说的是。且吩咐下去，不可泄露一个字。”王夫人见贾母这样，便不再说话了。 贾母又垂了一回泪，年老之人，禁不的伤感操劳，歪在榻上朦胧欲睡。鸳鸯忙上来侍候。王夫人遂与凤姐一起辞出，且命宝玉跟着，又说了些明儿如何搬迁，如何分配房间，如何安置丫头的闲话。那宝玉心如刀绞，六神无主，只恨不能速死，任由王夫人与凤姐议论，竟像与己无关一般，呆呆的毫无反应。王夫人见他这样，十分烦恼，欲说他几句，又怕教训重了怄出病来，只得忍气命人好好的送他回去，又叫收拾东西，预备明儿迁出。exactly:
