Jia Zhen, Uncle of the Red House

　　When Baoyu heard this, he fell down and smiled and said, "Fortunately, fortunately! It really lives up to its reputation." He grabbed his hand and brought it in.

　　The area around the study room of Qilaozhai was converted into the ancestral hall of Rongguofu, so another warm pavilion was found in Yimen as a reading place for Baoyu.

　　The three have similar interests, so the conversation is very lively.Baoyu took out "The West Chamber" and read it together, and asked Qiguan for advice when he was puzzled.

　　Qi Guan smiled and said: "Why don't I sing a song, the son will understand it."

　　Baoyu couldn't help but hurriedly said: "The name of the son seems to be alienating, why don't you just call me Baoyu, that's what you mean by closeness!"

　　Qi Guan did not dress up or change his appearance, and sang Cui Yingying in men's clothes, but he was shy and graceful, as if he saw Daiyu's shadow, but suddenly disappeared, and flashed Baochai Xiangyun's face, but it was not at all.Staring blankly at Qi Guan who was dancing, he stroked his hands and praised: "Shy, Hua Jieyu, gentle and fragrant."

　　Qi Guan's performance in the dream of Caoqiao Store was difficult for one person, so he forced Baoyu to replace Zhang Sheng and Qin Zhong to replace Hongniang.

　　Baoyu's emotions were in harmony, and he became familiar with it just once.

　　The hands are attached to each other, the ears and temples are rubbed together, and the heart is thinking: spring is full of breasts, spring is full of eyebrows, cheap but human jade.Apricot face and peach cheeks, riding on the moonlight, Jiao Di Di Hu appears red and white.

　　Half-push, half-assured, but also in love, thinking: how rich and beautiful.Seeing each other at first sight teaches people to harm, but suddenly does not teach people to teach people to be strange, but only to see them and teach people to love them.Tonight, I will be meeting with Bisha Kitchen, when will I untie the Xiangluo belt again?

　　The lyrics and music are over, but the rest is over.

　　Baoyu exclaimed in amazement, "I only found out about the joy today!" He took out a jar of spring brew from the back of the bookshelf, Qin Zhong opened a book box of the Book of Filial Piety and took out two wine cups.

　　Baoyu poured wine with him, never squinting, "I have grown up and haven't seen a person like you since I grew up. It's true that God treats me well."

　　Na Qi Guan has long been immersed in the wind and moon field, such as the jeweler's soul color grantor, he has seen a lot.However, Baoyu's eyes are well-known, and he is by no means comparable to ordinary people, and he does not consider his origin to be lowly.They also let go of their hearts and narrate their feelings.In what I have experienced, I have roughly written off the wrong.Baoyu is still full of admiration.

　 When talking about what he saw in the mansion, Qi Guan asked, "I just happened to see a woman in your mansion, with a slender figure and a long face, wearing a silver-red jacket, a green satin vest, and a white velvet skirt. I don't know who it is?"

　　Baoyu thought it was an attack, and his heart ached.

　　Qin Zhong also guessed it, poured the wine and smiled: "Brother Jiang, how can you casually talk about the matter in Baoyu's house? I will punish myself with three cups!"

　　Qi Guan observed his words and expressions, knowing that he had something unspeakable to hide, and hurriedly got up to make amends.

　　After a while, Baoyu attended to relieve the hand, and Qi Guan followed.The two stood under the eaves of the corridor, and Qi Guan was not with him.Baoyu said with a smile, "You and I see each other like each other, so it doesn't have to be like this. It's just today's first meeting, so I don't have much to give." After thinking about it, he took out a fan from his sleeve, untied a jade fan, and handed it to Qi Guan, saying, "A tiny object. It's unbearable, I'll show friendship." Qi Guan took it and smiled: "If you don't have merit, why should you be honored? Well, I got a strange thing here. I got up early this morning and tied it up. It's still brand new, and I can talk about it Intimacy." After saying that, he lifted up his clothes, took off a red sweater towel that was tied with his small clothes, handed it to Baoyu, and said, "This sweater towel is a tribute from the Queen of Qianxiang, it is worn in summer, and the skin Fragrance, no sweat. Yesterday, King Beijing gave me, and I only put on my body today. If it is someone else, I will never give it to you. Second Master, please untie your own tie and tie it for me." Baoyu heard that, and was delighted. Unable to help, he hurriedly connected it, took off a sweat towel with loose flowers, and handed it to Qi Guan.

　　The two entered the pavilion together, but Qin Zhong was nowhere to be seen.

　　They talked about the eagerness, and when they were drunk, they all undressed.Unconsciously, the figure swayed, and the sweat towel was tied.

　　Since then, the two have been in constant contact with each other, or gathered together with a few people outside the mansion, or enjoyed each other in front of the King of Beijing, which is different from others.

　　On this day, the peach blossoms in the garden were full of trees, a gust of breeze came slowly, and the mountains and valleys were colorful and fluttering all over the ground.

　　Daiyu was wearing a lilac orchid embroidered collar and a pink double-breasted jacket, a white cross-collar shirt inside, and a long dress with red plums embroidered on a white background. Holding a broom and walking under the tree, the petals fluttered and fell on her hair and body.

　　Then put down the flower hoe and flower bag, gently sweeping with the flower broom, gather the peach blossoms on the ground together, pick them up one by one, blow away the soil and weeds, and carefully put them into the flower bag.In her eyes, these petals, just like her own, left home and left the group, scattered in the world, not knowing where the fragrance and soul are, tears shed on Qingqiu.

　　After a while, she had filled the flower sac, both feeling sad and missing, and the tears were falling and dripping on the petals. "You are clean and self-cleaning, you have a handful of soil to cover your bones, even if the romance is gone, there is still a dark fragrance floating. Here, my heart is so sad, I dare not forget it for a moment."

　　She sighed for a long time before picking up the flower hoe, fearing that her footsteps would trample the petals on the ground, and carefully walked to the sunny spot on the hillside.She was panting slightly, with perspiration on her forehead. She raised her eyes and looked up. She circled the green embankment in front of her, brushed the willows, and passed through the flowers.The bridge is across and the water is clear, which is indeed a good place.

　　The flower hoe brings out the shallow pit, and the breeze brings affection.There are several peach blossoms in the pit.

　　Daiyu picked them up one by one and put them in the bag.Just as he was about to bury the flower bag, countless peach blossoms suddenly sprinkled from the top of his head, "Peach blossoms are ashamed and ruthless, grateful to the east wind. Blowing down the delicate red, flying into the idle window with chagrin. Whoever takes pity on Dongyang's thinness is also for the spring. Hibiscus, a quiet and cold place is strong."

　　Jia Zhen came out of the peach forest and praised: "Yu'er can be called a fairy of peach blossoms. As expected, the beauty of the country is beautiful, and the flowers are too embarrassing to bloom."

　　When Daiyu saw that it was Jia Zhen, she turned from worry to joy, and from joy to anger, and said angrily, "The first song of picking mulberries is very good, which is quite in line with what I mean. Just that sentence just now is a slick tongue, you save it for others. Listen! I don't want it!"

　　Jia Zhen stepped forward to wipe away her tears, "I haven't seen it these days, why are you crying again? Are you really planning to make the bamboos in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion cry like bamboos? It doesn't make you worry at all."

　　"Bah!" Daiyu opened his hand, saw that he was still holding her own old handkerchief, and her pretty face was flushed, so she snatched it over and said angrily, "A big man still uses mine, and I'm not ashamed! "

　　Jia Zhen said anxiously, "Hurry up and return it to me, or I won't be able to sleep."

　　Daiyu was both ashamed and happy, "I won't give it!" She looked at Jia Zhen with wide-eyed eyes.

　　Jia Zhen was going to hug her, but she dodged and said, "Let's talk well and let the sisters see."

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "I saw them playing chess when I came, and Xiangyun made fun of her. How did you get here?"

　　Daiyu just let him hold his hand, "Why are you free today? I thought it would take a while to see you!"

　　Jia Zhen pulled her hand to her chest, "It's probably nothing more than trivial matters, and I'm afraid it will stain Yu'er's ears."

　　Daiyu leaned against Jia Zhen's shoulder, and Jia Zhen held her in her arms.

　　Daiyu said faintly: "I know if you don't tell me, it's nothing more than stealing someone else's house. I don't know how much you took advantage of the opportunity to enrich your own pockets, anyway, I only heard that the lady and the girl you redeemed from the general's mansion do not know how to hide. How much! Humph! Shameless!"

　　She turned away, tears streaming down her face. "I'm worried about you here, but you're out in the wild. Why am I so miserable, spare your fate, the demon star..." When it comes to the sad part, the situation becomes more and more emotional, and the grief is overwhelmed.

　　Jia Zhen hurriedly explained: "Yu'er, you misunderstood! Although I have redeemed a lot of people, it's not what you think. No matter how jerk I am, I can't do it knowing that Yu'er is thinking about me. That kind of deed." He pulled Daiyu over, wiped her tears with his sleeve, and said affectionately, "Those people are all the family members of the prince's party, and they were convicted and confiscated from the Jiaofang Division for their family crimes. I feel sorry for them being implicated, thinking about it. They are also daughters in the boudoir. Once they fall into such a place, they will not bear it. They will be redeemed and their families will take them back in a few days. If it is really difficult, I will support them to tide over the difficulties. Yuer, I did this with good intentions, how could it be so absurd? You must believe me!"

　　Daiyu looked at Jia Zhen and smiled only while biting her handkerchief.He spat: "It's the same as the truth! How can you make me believe you?"

　　Jia Zhen grabbed Daiyu's hand, "Yu'er, if you have to doubt me, even if I have been wronged to death, I will not be able to reincarnate, and you will need to explain it before I can be reincarnated!"

　　Daiyu smiled with tears in her eyes, and said angrily, "I'm suspicious of you, you have to wait for me when you die, and let's reincarnate together."

　　Jia Zhen shook her head.

　　Daiyu said with anger and annoyance, "Why, don't you want to?" Tears were about to come out.

　　Jia Zhen hugged her head and kissed her tears, salty, "Silly girl, if we were reincarnated together, we wouldn't be twins, brothers and sisters? How can that be? Yu'er and I are going to be together forever. Together, never parted."

　　Only then did Daiyu chuckle, "Hmph, I'm so beautiful that I won't be with you! Old man!"

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "If I were an old man, you would be an old woman! From now on, I won't call you Yu'er, I will just call you old woman, old woman for life."

　　Daiyu's heart was sweet, and her face was on fire, "I'll be annoyed and ignore you again." She turned around and was about to leave.

　　Jia Zhen dragged her into her arms, "Yu'er, don't make trouble. We'll have to live forever."

　　Daiyu closed her eyes, tired of being in his arms.In this moment of tranquility, the two of them breathed together, heard their heartbeats, let their skirts fold into a heart shape, and the peach blossoms danced in the spring breeze, printing their shadows on the ground.

　　We have each other, I wish time would stop at this moment!

　　Daiyu had a lot of thoughts to tell Jia Zhen, but when she looked up, she saw Jia Zhen pick up a petal, sniff it at the tip of her nose, and put it in her mouth to chew.

　　Daiyu glared at him angrily and snatched half a petal from his hand, "How can you eat her? How pitiful is she?" Holding it in her palm, she said sadly, "The flower has been destroyed, the fragrance has passed away, what can I do?"

　　Jia Zhen was panicked by her, "Although the flowers are crippled, the spirit is complete, and the fragrance is gone, but the soul will always remain. If one day, we will all be weathered, and our souls will become butterflies.

　　"Humph! Nonsense! Turn yourself into a butterfly!" Daiyu angrily put the residual flower into the flower bag.

　　Jia Zhen picked up a petal from her head, and under Daiyu's attention, she gently put it into the bag. "Yu'er, why don't we put the petals in the water? Empress Li's words, the water will fall and the flowers will go away in the spring. It's heaven and earth. I like it the most."

　　Daiyu picked up a petal from Jia Zhen's beard, and suddenly naughty pulled off one of his beards and put it together with the petals. "Since you hurt them, you will naturally have to compensate."

　　She tied the flower bag and held it to her chest, "Li Houzhu is thinking of the motherland, and there is nothing you can do. What can you do? It's not a problem! It's not good to be left in the water. You can see that the water here is clean, only The first class went out, and some people's places were dirty and smelly, and the flowers were still collapsed. It is better to set up a flower mound here, and now it has been swept up, put in this silk bag, and buried with soil, it will not last long. It's not clean if it's turned into the soil."

　　Jia Zhen said happily, "Yu'er, you're right, we can't throw them into the stinky ditch." Then he took the flower hoe, dug a deep hole a few times, took the flower bag in Daiyu's hand and buried it .

　　The two picked up the soil and spread it one by one.

　　"Brother, if I died, would you bury me like this?" Daiyu looked at Jia Zhen blankly.

　　Jia Zhen piled the last handful of soil on the flower mound and patted it hard, "I won't bury you."

　　Daiyu's tears were about to fall again.

　　Jia Zhen had mud on her hands, and kissed her tears, "Silly girl, when you die, I will already be dead, how can I bury you? But you have to promise me that when you die, you must bury a piece with me. Son, or else..."

　　Daiyu frowned and said with a smile, "Otherwise what? We are all dead, where are you going to find me?"

　　Jia Zhen grabbed Daiyu's hand, and was deeply in love with her, her lips pressed together unknowingly.

　　Daiyu's eyes were blurred, she lowered her head, and said shyly, "Brother, if you're dead, you already know how to bully me! I'll tell my grandmother to go tomorrow."

　　Jia Zhen embraced her: "Good sister, spare me this, because I can't help it. If you want to bully you, don't tell anyone tomorrow, let me fall into the pool and teach a leprechaun to swallow it, You become a big forgetful eight, and when you become a first-class madam, I will go to your grave to carry the monument for you for a lifetime." Lin Daiyu sneered and nodded his forehead: " It's usually a joke, just talk nonsense. If you really become a bastard, teach me how to be a first-class lady? Wouldn't it be a bastard?" He couldn't help but fell into Jia Zhen's arms and laughed.

　　Jia Zhen kissed her again, "Brother is trying his best to make my Yu'er happy!"

　　Daiyu was flustered, and hurriedly stopped him and said, "My sister knows my brother's heart. As long as my brother has a younger sister in his heart, that's enough. If the relationship lasts for a long time, how can it be day and night? You can't teach you because of me. If there is damage, otherwise, I will feel distressed for the rest of my life."

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "If I don't marry you, I'll feel bad for the rest of my life."

　　Daiyu blushed, "Okay, life is still long, let's wash our hands first?"

　　So the two of them held hands, shoulder to shoulder, descended from the flower mound, and walked to the Qinfang Gate.

　　Jia Zhen bent down and took out the water from the gate, first let Daiyu wash her hands, and then rubbed it twice in the water.

　　Daiyu took out the handkerchief, put her feet up and wiped Jia Zhen's forehead: "There is still a little dirty here."

　　Jia Zhen lowered her head and grabbed Daiyu's hand, still snatching the handkerchief back and putting it in her arms, "Keep this for me. My brother can't leave it for a moment."

　　Daiyu blushed and spat: "Then use it carefully, if it breaks, I'll give you a new one."

　　Jia Zhen was about to kiss her again, but she pushed it away and stomped her feet: "This is not the room, the girls are coming and going, and if they see gossip, am I still alive?"

　　As he was talking, a man came out from the opposite slope, a long coat with peony embroidered on the red background, a long pink and purple skirt, and a golden unicorn on his chest, only to hear her shout: "Sister Lin. , come here quickly!"

　　She ran over with the corner of her skirt and sat on the pavilion, panting, "Brother Zhen, why are you here too? Just in time, let's play together!"

　　Jia Zhen came up and said with a smile, "You guys are just playing with phoenixes and phoenixes, and fighting grass and hairpins. How do you want me to play? It's almost as good as sticking an embroidery needle!"

　　Xiangyun laughed after hearing this, "Who told you to stab people? Let's play catch, hide and hide, I'm hiding here, so that they can't catch me!"

　　Before she finished speaking, Tan Chun quietly walked over and grabbed her sleeve, "Who said it couldn't be caught?"

　　Xiangyun was startled and wanted to stand up and run, but bumped into Jia Zhen's arms.

　　Jia Zhen hugged her, "Third sister, you scared Yun'er like this."

　　Xiangyun just smiled and twisted a few times in Jia Zhen's arms, "Third sister, please forgive me! Otherwise I'll catch you next time!"

　　Looking at her like this, Tan Chun laughed together with Dai Yu and scolded, "Yun'er, you are not ashamed!"

　　Only then did Xiangyun react, exclaimed, his face flushed, and he didn't dare to look at Jia Zhen again, he just turned around and played with Tanchun Daiyu, "You guys are still laughing? I didn't mean it!"

　　Three girls run around Jia Zhen.They were dripping with sweat, and Jia Zhen was delighted to see, "Don't run away, take a rest and see how tired you are."

　　Jia Zhen pulled them down one by one and fanned them with a fan, "You are so troublesome, how about I teach you a lively way to play?"

　　Xiangyun snatched Jia Zhen's fan, fanned it a few times himself, and then fanned Daiyu Tanchun a few times, "What's the lively way of playing?"

　　"It takes a lot of people!" Jia Zhen waited for them to rest for a while, then went to a small open space with them in the forest, and called Yingchun, Xichun, and Li Wan.

　　They all heard Jia Zhen say: "Now let's play a game of eagle catching chickens. The rules are very simple, it's like this... If you are caught, you have to learn an animal cry. I will be an eagle, and you are all chickens. , and choose an old hen to protect the chicks."

　　Daiyu and the others looked at each other and laughed: "The elder sister-in-law is the most suitable for the old hen!"

　　Although Li Wan was extremely willing in his heart, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold it back and his feelings would overflow beyond control, so he insisted on refusing.

　　Everyone also thought that because Li Wan lived as a widow, it was not suitable for him to take over with his uncle, so they elected Xiren to replace him.
