Yurun Bingyan of the Red Chamber

Chapter 85

Shui Mohan used to like to argue with Shui Hanxing when he met Shui Hanxing, and this time was no exception, he looked at Shui Hanxing strangely and said, "Oh, Aunt Hanxing, I thought you would chase who Going to the border." Shui Hanxing blushed very rarely, rushed to Shui Mo and said, "Where does this princess go, it's none of your business?" The others couldn't help but laugh inwardly.At the beginning, many people thought that Princess Hanxing would be ruined for the rest of her life because of the emperor's finger marriage.Unexpectedly, after Jia's family was raided, he left his husband behind and pretended to live a lively life.It even attracted the admiration of many young talents.But Princess Hanxing didn't care about it, instead she went to fight with a lieutenant of the Eagle Army when she had nothing to do.For this reason, Shui Mohan concluded: "It's just a romantic legend that you love me and I don't love you, but I love him and he doesn't know about it." Just because of this, Shui Hanxing was often chased and beaten.Because of Shui Mohan's big mouth, people who are close to him know that Shui Hanxing has a crush on the lieutenant under Yan Wang's command, Hate Tian, ​​and another general under Yan Wang's command, Wei Ruolan, has a good relationship with Shui Hanxing, but hates Tian. His nerves are thick, and he looks completely ignorant.Watching this love triangle, Shui Mohan laughed until his stomach ached.

A group of people went back to the city talking and laughing, because Shui Hanxing promised Huangfu Bingyan to accompany Daiyu, he didn't even return to Xining Palace, and followed Daiyu directly to Yan Palace.As soon as he arrived at the gate of Yanwang Mansion, he saw that there were already people waiting there.When Mo Yu jumped off the carriage, he saw the person standing at the door frowning displeasedly, "What are you doing here?" The person who came was Jia Tanchun from the Jia family.In the past two years, because of Mo Yu and Huangfu Bingyan's deliberate isolation, Dai Yu has never seen anyone in Jia's family again, but ordered Mo Yu to send some silver taels every month as Jia's mother's daily necessities.As for the others, it really has nothing to do with them.The Lin family can be said to be as rich as a country, and Mo Yu naturally doesn't care about tens of taels of silver every month, but besides that, he refuses to provide any help to the Jia family.Mrs. Wang and others came to make trouble several times, but they couldn't see Daiyu, and Moyu was always not very polite to them, so after a few times, they stopped making so much trouble.

"Mo'er, what's the matter?" Daiyu opened the curtain and asked Moyu outside.

Mo Yu frowned, and was about to speak when Tan Chun rushed forward and said, "Sister Lin, please go and see the old lady, the old lady is about to die!"

Daiyu frowned slightly when she heard this, and helped Moyu's hand to get off the carriage.Only then did he see clearly the person in front of him and couldn't help asking: "Are you the third sister?" The woman in front of her was wearing a coarse cloth dress, her supposedly delicate face was full of exhaustion, her face was as yellow as dirt, but she could still see her original beauty.The age of sixteen or seventeen now looks ten years older at a glance.Daiyu was very puzzled, with the silver that she sent someone and the monthly subsidy that Moyu sent, plus the old lady's methods, how could the life process not be like this.

Tanchun looked at Daiyu's picturesque snow-skinned, beautiful and moving appearance, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.Tears fell silently, "Sister Lin, go and see the old lady, the old lady is about to die."

"Sister Lin, please go and see the old lady, the old lady is dying soon!"

Hearing this, Daiyu froze for a moment, looking at the haggard and embarrassed Tanchun in front of her, she couldn't react.She and Mother Jia haven't seen each other for two years.It doesn't matter if she is cruel or heartless.She always felt that they would not have much chance to meet again.Now that she suddenly heard the news that she was going to die, Daiyu didn't feel much sadness in her heart, but a little sad.Now she was more focused on Huangfu Bingyan who had just rushed to the battlefield.In Daiyu's eyes, Huangfu Bingyan is already the most important existence besides Moyu, at least tens of millions of times more important than all the Jia family combined.Now, thinking that the person who has been thinking about the Jia family all his life is about to die, Daiyu just sighs in her heart.

Moyu stood beside Daiyu to see that his sister was silent.On the contrary, Shui Mohan twitched the corners of his mouth, evoked a smile that was not a smile, and said, "The old lady of the Jia family is dying again? Mo Yu, the old lady has passed away more than five times in the past two years." Mo Yu answered Gentle and elegant, he said: "Six times." In the past two years, the Jia family tried their best to see Daiyu, but Yanwang Mansion was heavily guarded, and Huangfu Bingyan didn't want them to see him. I can't even touch the corner of my clothes.In the end, he had no choice but to find the Prince's Mansion of Anqin County. If Shui Mohan hadn't reminded him that time, Mo Yu might have taken Dai Yu to see Jia Mu.After that, it became more and more excessive several times, what was critically ill, dying, seriously ill.Every time Moyu passed by, Jia's mother would just tearfully pull him to tell about the Jia family's brilliant achievements, how they are now down, how unfilial the Jia family's descendants are, and she has no face to see the Jia family's ancestors.The most outstanding grandson of the Jia family was innocently sent to the frontier and so on.It made Mo Yu tireless, and finally decided not to go.Unexpectedly, Tanchun came directly to the Yanwang Mansion.

Tears were streaming down Tanchun's sallow and emaciated face, and he cried embarrassingly, shaking his head and said, "Sister Lin, I'll lie to you if I don't have one. I beg you to go and see the old lady!"

Daiyu sighed softly, turned her head to Moyu and said, "Let's go and have a look." Moyu looked at her sister speechlessly.Shui Mohan lamented: "Sister Lin, forget it, those people from Jia's family are very difficult." He has accompanied Mo Yu to go there several times, and his ears are numb after hearing those nagging words.When he visited Jia Mu for the last time more than two months ago, he felt that the old lady was living a strong life, and he didn't want to look like she was going to return home in the short term.

"Tanchun probably didn't lie this time." Daiyu looked at Tanchun and said softly.Although Daiyu didn't know Tanchun very well, she still had seven or eight points.Since childhood, she has low self-esteem and the status of a concubine, and at the same time, she has developed a proud disposition that is different from ordinary people.Just like now she would rather suffer hardships with Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang than go back to Jia Huan.In fact, she just needs to go back and admit her mistake to Jia Huan and Mrs. Wang, and say a few nice words.According to Aunt Zhao's temperament of being reluctant to bear children, she would immediately accept her again.She doesn't even need to say anything, she just needs to cry a few times in front of Aunt Zhao.But she refused.Such Tanchun would never have appeared in front of them in such embarrassment if it hadn't been a last resort.So Mo Yu no longer objected, and before the group had time to return home, they got into the carriage and went straight to the place where Jia Mu and others lived.

A small courtyard, an ordinary courtyard house, is where the Jia family lives now.Entering the yard, some small yards are full of clothes to dry.The carved and painted buildings, the exotic flowers and plants seem to be the clouds of the past, and the whole yard gives people a gray feeling.Shui Mohan and Shui Hanxing immediately frowned and hummed twice.Mo Yu glanced over indifferently, and Shui Mohan had no choice but to swallow back the ridicule he wanted to utter very aggrieved.But Tanchun obviously knew what they meant, and lowered his head in embarrassment.Xiangyun came out with a child in his arms.The once delicate and beautiful face also has a few vicissitudes, but it is obviously much better than Tanchun.A few steps away, Daiyu could still see clearly that the child's clothes were made of high-quality materials, and those who wanted to come to Jia's house now pinned all their hopes on this child.Xiangyun froze for a moment when he saw Daiyu approaching, and then shot a look of resentment in his eyes.Shui Hanxing stood beside Daiyu and looked at Xiangyun with a strange and cold smile.Xiangyun bit his lips in fear, turned around and went back to the house with the child in his arms.

Entering Jiamu's residence, there are many people crowded in the room.Mrs. Wang, Zijuan, Sister Feng, Sister Qiao, and Yuanyang, the former big girl beside Jiamu, and Qingwen next to Baoyu.Seeing Daiyu, everyone hurried forward to salute.Daiyu raised her hand to signal them to be excused.Looking at the bed inside, Mother Jia was lying on the bed, seemingly unaware of the arrival of Daiyu and others.Zijuan leaned over to Jiamu's ear and said, "Old lady, Miss Lin and Master Moyu are here." After a while, Jiamu moved, opened her eyes and stretched out her hand in Daiyu's direction, "Jade Son..." Daiyu stepped forward, took Jia Mu's hand and sat on the bedside.Jia Mu's hair has long been gray and sparse, her wrinkled face is sallow and lifeless, her eyes are also lacklustre, and she looks dying.Daiyu whispered: "Grandmother, what do you want to say to Yu'er?" Jia Mu panted, seemingly unable to speak for a moment, but tightly grasped Daiyu's hand, looking at her steadily .Daiyu's hand hurt a little from her grasp, and she couldn't help frowning.

But he didn't speak.A trace of displeasure flashed in Mo Yu's eyes, and he stepped forward to put his hands on the two of them, then gently but forcefully pulled away Jia Mu's hand, and asked gently: "Grandmother, my sister and I are here , do you have anything you want to tell us?" Mother Jia glanced at Moyu, seemingly startled, and then turned her gaze again.

Turn to Daiyu.Daiyu sighed softly in her heart, and said in a low voice: "What does grandma want to say to Yu'er?"

Jia's mother looked at Daiyu firmly, and said with some difficulty: "Yu'er...grandmother...grandmother knows I'm sorry for you. The Jia family and the Jia family have fallen to this point...you deserve it. But...cough, Baoyu he He is innocent. It has been two years... He is dead at the border. Grandmother... Grandmother is very worried. Grandmother begs you... This is the last thing my grandmother begs you for, please save him." Jia Mother struggled to get up while talking.Mo Yu's face was calm, she supported Jia Mu's shoulder with one hand, but secretly pressed down her hand to prevent her from sitting up, and said softly, "Grandmother, the prince violated the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime. Don't embarrass my sister." Jia Mu was anxious, and then She began to cough, "Mo'er... Mo'er, grandma never took care of you. But Baoyu is your cousin... are you really so cruel?" Moyu smiled softly, comforting Jiamu and said: "Grandmother What are you talking about. The emperor personally issued an order to offend, even if Mo Er had the courage to question it. Besides... Mo Er is powerless now, her sister is just a boudoir girl, and her brother-in-law is away to fight There is nothing we can do even if we want to, isn’t it? Doesn’t grandma make my sister feel sad when she says that?”
