Baochai, Tanchun, and Xiangyun were slowly walking out of the garden. Hearing Yuchuan 'er's words, they hurried to Lady Wang's place. At this moment, Lady Wang was leaning on the brick bed, leaning against the back of the stone green satin chair. Xiu Luan was massaging her legs at the side, and Li Wan was also standing on the ground, accompanying her in conversation.
When Xiang Yun saw Li Wan, she congratulated him,"Nephew Lan has liked to study since young. As expected, she is very popular. This is not in vain.”Li Wan said,"This child is too lucky. I told him to study more!"”Xiang Yun continued,"We just passed by the Fragrant Rice Village. I guessed that Eldest Sister-in-law was still living there, so I wanted to go in." Fortunately, Sister Bao told me that Eldest Sister-in-law had moved.”Li Wan brought up the matter of her son-in-law and comforted Xiang Yun.
"Which places have you visited?" asked Madam Wang. It was a cold day, and the plum blossoms hadn't bloomed yet, so what was there to shop for?”"I haven't been to the garden for a long time," said Xiang Yun."I didn't expect it to be so desolate. After all, it was better for someone to live in the house.”"That's still good," said Madam Wang."Who dared to go two years ago?" They said that Little Feng got sick because she saw a ghost there. Brother Zhen's daughter-in-law walked into the garden and saw something. She was also sick for many days. Eldest Master didn't believe it and went to see it himself. He also met a monster during the day! It was not easy to ask the old Taoist priest to clean the house, so it was quieter at this time.”
"These kinds of words are mostly made up by the servants and maids to scare people," Tanchun replied. They were so scared that no one dared to go, and they were punished. They stole, gambled, and lazed around. What couldn't they do? Don't listen to him. You'll be fine once you calm down.”"Third Younger Sister's words are very right." The last time Eldest Master went to the garden, the servants clearly saw a big golden pheasant and said it was a demon with red eyebrows and green eyes.
Grand Elder Wen believed it. In the end, it was them who said it themselves.”
Suddenly, Lady Wang remembered to ask about Baochai and said,""Tomorrow is the birthday of the Earl of Lin An Furen. We are the Xiao family and it is not convenient for us to go and pay our respects, so we should send a gift.”"I saw Ping 'er this morning," replied Baochai."He said that he had prepared it according to the rules of previous years." What do you think, Madam?”"Wu Xindeng's wife and Zheng Haoshi's wife have been there before," said Madam Wang."We can just bring two more people along."”
Xiufeng came in and replied,"Mistress, the food is ready."”Lady Wang said to Xiang Yun and the others,"You can eat here too."”When the maids heard this, they added spoons and chopsticks. Everyone went to the outer room together, Mrs. Wang let Xiangyun sit on the seat, Xiangyun refused. As usual, Lady Wang sat on the front seat, Xiangyun and Tanchun sat on the left and right respectively, while Li Wan and Baochai stood to take care of her. When Lady Wang had finished eating, she set up another spoon and chopsticks before eating. He picked two more dishes and sent them to Ping 'er. Everyone was still chatting with Madam Wang.
Tanchun was about to return to her room when she asked Xiangyun,"I don't think Sister Shi will be going back tonight, just stay at my place. Let's be more intimate." "We've already agreed," said Xiang Yun,"but we're still going to make trouble for Sister Bao!”Lady Wang then asked Caiyun to arrange the bed curtains for Miss Shi. "There's no need to mention it, Madam," said Baochai. Miss Xi has gone out. The bed curtains are ready-made at our place, but we have troubled Younger Sister Yun.”Madam Wang smiled." You're all grown up now. Your Sister Shi has also gone out. Why are you still mentioning her name?"”"I'm used to calling you that," said Baochai with a smile."I slipped out when I wasn't paying attention." Fortunately, it was at home. If it were anywhere else, he would be a joke!”
"I've been thinking about Xiren since you mentioned her," said Madam Wang. This girl had always been honest. He wondered how she would treat him after she married him. Send someone to take a look." "That's what I thought," said Baochai."I sent Beiming to take a look a while ago." The Jiang family lived in the outskirts of the city, more than ten miles away from the city. They also had some land and property, and they treated Xiren very well. Everyone calls him Grandma." "That's fine!" said Madam Wang. At least we didn't do anything wrong." "Do you know who that Jiang fellow is, Mistress?" Baochai asked with a smile. So it's Jiang Qiguan." "That Jiang Qiguan?" Madam Wang asked hurriedly. This name sounds familiar." "Isn't it just the opera singer from the Zhongshun Prince's mansion?" That year, Second Brother was beaten up by Old Master because of him.”"Isn't that so?" said Baochai. He knew that Xiren was your Second Brother's woman, so he gave him a lot of face. Xiren refused to say that she was a servant girl outside and even pretended to be the Fourth Young Miss of our residence! Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"I hate people like them the most," said Lady Wang."Baoyu is a good-for-nothing and wants to mess around with them. Then what kind of good people are there in the opera?" "Although Jiang Qiguan is an opera singer, he's quite famous in the city," said Xiangyun. I heard that on his 20th birthday, a tutor wrote a poem for him. Even my uncle knew him.”Tanchun said," It's always a small female lead. Xiren has always wanted to be strong. Now that she's paired with an actress, is he willing?"”"He cried a few times when he first went, but he recovered afterwards," said Baochai.”"As long as the husband and wife are harmonious, it doesn't matter whether they are actors or not!" If not for this kind of person, who would be willing to marry Xiren?”Xiang Yun said,"Xiren also served me. When I heard that Second Brother had left home, he cried a lot, afraid that he would take things too hard and commit suicide." I didn't expect him to..." Just as she said the word "him", she suddenly saw Ying 'er rush in. Her expression changed. When she saw Baochai, she hurriedly said,"Young Lady, quickly go and take a look. Sister Sheyue is in trouble!”
"He just sent me out," Baochai said in surprise."Where did this come from?" What kind of emergency is it?" Ying 'er said,"It's not an illness. It's just that I cried and passed away."”
"Go and take a look," said Lady Wang."Send someone to tell me what's going on.”"Let's go out and take a look," said Li Wan and Tanchun.”"I think it's liver syncope," Xiang Yun said."It'll be fine after a while." Madam, don't be anxious." With that, she went with Baochai.
When they arrived at the courtyard of the bridal chamber, they saw Sheyue lying on the small bamboo bed in the wing room. Her face was as pale as gold paper and she was silent. Qiu Wen, Bi Hen, and the maids were all looking at him from underground. Some called out to him, some pinched his philtrum. They were in a mess. Baochai and the others didn't feel anything when they entered.
Baochai couldn't say anything about them, so she turned to Ying 'er and said,""How did you cry so badly? This young girl didn't know how to say a single word.”Hearing Baochai's anger, Qiu Wen quickly straightened up and recounted the story in detail.
It turned out that when the mangy monk sent the jade over, She Yue added,"Luckily, I didn't smash it that year!" When Baoyu heard this, he immediately fainted. She Yue was regretful and afraid. She made up her mind. If Baoyu died, he would follow. Later, Baoyu returned and gradually recovered, so he interrupted the thought. When Baoyu was lost in the yard, Sheyue cried a few times and always hoped that Baoyu would come back. That day, a letter from Jia Zheng's family arrived, mentioning that he had met Baoyu and had become a monk. Baochai and Xiren cried their hearts out. She Yue only secretly shed tears, thinking that since ancient times, there had been people who had sacrificed themselves for their masters, but not monks. Just as he didn't know what to do, he heard the master's opinion that all the people in Baoyu's room had to be sent out. After thinking about it, he decided on another idea: If you allow me to stay here, I will do my best to serve Second Grandmother for the rest of my life and support my brother in the future. If he followed Old Master's opinion and wanted to send him out, then he had no choice but to risk his life. He had only talked to Qiu Wen behind his back.
When Xiren left, he thought to himself, Xiren is Baoyu's first person, and she's also half of the people who have passed the open road. If he wants to send her away, there's no need to mention us! However, everyone had their own ambitions. Although my status is not as good as Xiren's, when it comes to receiving favors, it's the same. He's usually picky and harms others for his own benefit. What don't I know? That year, she had lied to Baoyu and said that she wanted to go out, causing Baoyu to lose his soul. He took this opportunity to threaten Baoyu with many words, and Baoyu complied with them one by one, even breaking his hairpin and swearing an oath. Another time, he said,"If you die, I'll be a monk!" She looked at him as if he was Miss Lin. Even if Baoyu died and he couldn't follow, he should still guard it. Could it be that he had the heart to say a second sentence? Now that he was just a monk, he turned around and strolled forward! If Baoyu returned from asceticism, how could he face anyone? When Baoyu was at home, he always took the lead in everything, so I could only follow him. Now that he's gone and remarried, should I follow him? After thinking about it, it was not just a day.
On this day, after sending Baochai out, he returned to the house. There was no one else, so he had a detailed talk with Qiuwen. She told him and cried! He was afraid that outsiders would hear him, so he suppressed his voice and did not dare to speak loudly. Unexpectedly, he choked on his breath and fainted. Qiu Wen was shocked and in pain! He hurriedly called the servant girls in to help wake him up, but he did not wake up. Ying 'er fainted from fright and went to Baochai to deliver the letter.
At this time, Baochai heard Qiuwen say the details of the situation and knew that it was an urgent phlegm blockage. She quickly told the stewards outside to call Imperial Physician Wang. Xiangyun said that there was a doctor in the acupuncture department on the west side of Sipailou. People called him the King of Golden Needles. He was very effective in treating strange diseases. Xiangyun's uncle, Shi Ding, once fell unconscious from a horse. After being treated with acupuncture, he only applied three needles and was immediately saved. Hearing this, Baochai sent a horse to fetch him. It just so happened that Imperial Physician Wang was on night duty in the Imperial Academy of Medicine and couldn't come. The Needle King had already set out to search for her. When he arrived at the manor, Sheyue had already died and left with a smile on her face! There were still tears at the corners of her eyes.
Lady Wang had just sent Caiyun over to ask, and upon seeing the situation, she quickly went back to tell him. Li Wan and Tanchun also went up to explain in detail. When Lady Wang heard this, she ordered Baochai and Xiangyun to move to the three north rooms in the east courtyard of the upper room for temporary residence, leaving Qiuwen and Bihen to guard there.
