XXXIII. Helpless
Hearing that Shi Xiangyun had arrived, Baoyu clapped his hands and smiled, "I asked the old ancestor to invite Sister Yun to come over to play for a few days, and after a few days, I forgot about it, or did the old ancestor think about Yun Yatou and pick it up?" ”
Baochai said with a smile, "If it weren't for the ancestor, relying on your lost memory, I'm afraid that Yun Yatou wouldn't be able to come a few times a year." Baoyu nodded, "That's true." ”
Since Shi Xiangyun arrived, everyone got up and went to Jia's mother to greet her, Daiyu Baochai Baoyu went with her, Li Kun sent the girl over and said that she couldn't come if she had something to do over there, Yingchun got up and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law is putting on a shelf, I'll invite you personally." ”
Xichun doesn't like to be lively, and has already slipped out to play with Xiangling, Xue Pan also said that he and Aunt Xue to see how lunch was prepared, everyone scattered to do their own thing, and the room stayed Tanchun and her maid to serve the book, and the waiter saw that there was no one left and right, and whispered, "Auntie still came to make trouble, I saw it clearly in the back, but the uncle of the Xue family didn't know how to get my aunt to stop." ”
Tanchun is clever, how can he not see the scene of Shicai, his aunt has already made a big bargain, so he doesn't care about anything, if he is really offended, then he shouldn't stop like this, but if he is not offended, why make such a fuss? Thinking of this, Tanchun couldn't help but be a little disheartened, "Other people's aunts are all face-saving, but my aunt is causing trouble to me, originally I had no face in front of the old lady and wife, but I didn't expect that today this shame was thrown to my relatives' house!" Thinking of this, I couldn't help but cry and flow.
The waiter hurriedly persuaded, "The girl can't think like this, the girl is the girl, the aunt is the aunt, there is nothing she wants to do, she herself is disrespectful, and it can't even affect the girl, not to mention that the old lady and the lady don't value the girl?" Although I don't say much on the face, who doesn't know that the third girl is the most favored by the old lady and valued by the wife, the girl hurriedly collected her tears, this is in Lixiangyuan, if it is seen, it is not good. ”
Tanchun wiped away his tears, and the waiter said again, "Besides, Uncle Xue also knows the girl's thoughts, and he doesn't make any trouble, but he hurriedly asks someone to appease him, it can be seen that the uncle knows the girl, this thought, I'm afraid that no one can see it today, but he is supporting the girl, the big guy doesn't know, the wife and the old lady don't know, naturally no one will blame the girl." ”
Tanchun nodded, "That's what it means, I didn't expect Brother Xue to be so careful, I'm really grateful." ”
The two of them were talking, and Xiangling jumped in from outside, "Three girls," Xiangling smiled with a plate of oranges in her hand, "This is given to me by the uncle, and the girl also hurried to taste one." ”
Tanchun lowered his head and was still holding back his tears, and the waiter smiled and said: "Thank you Miss Xiangling, this cold winter day is almost the wax moon, and there are such tangerines there," the waiter looked at the orange, the color was golden, very fresh, and there were bursts of orange fragrance coming to the nose, it was definitely not the appearance of gold and jade, "Look at it, it's very fresh, it's really a rare thing!" ”
"Said it was shipped back from Guangzhou, and I don't know how they planted it, there are still oranges in November," Xiangling said with a smile, "It's not too sweet, it's a little sour, but I don't like sweet, sour is and my appetite, the uncle knows that I love to eat sour, so he gave me a basket, and I said that a person ate it there, and then took it out to the big guy to eat." ”
"From Guangzhou, it must be from the south," Tanchun said with a smile at this time, "The land of Nanyang, the weather is hot all year round, even if it is our cold winter wax moon, they are just a little cooler than in early autumn, although it is from Guangzhou, but maybe it is still the vassal country of Nanyang, after all, they have a lot of fruits there, Rao is wax moon, and it is also more produced, but it was expensive in the past, and it was not easy to transport, so we are rare in the capital." ”
Xiangling couldn't help but admire Tanchun's words very much, "The third girl is really knowledgeable, and she hasn't walked outside, how can she know so many things?" ”
"It's all from books," said Tanchun, "if you have time to come to me to read," she sighed, "if you can travel around like your uncle and see the scenery everywhere in the world, you won't read in vain after reading so many books." ”
The waiter smiled, "Is your uncle really nice to you?" The old year also said that he would help you find your former parents, but I don't know if I can find it. ”
Xiangling was still peeling oranges, and when she heard this, her hand suddenly stopped, and Tanchun was disgusted with the waiter, "It's so decent, what are you doing here?" She grabbed Xiangling, "You shouldn't talk about it, and I won't mention it next time." ”
"It's nothing, I really don't have an impression, I occasionally ask the uncle, it seems that he knows some of the names of my parents," Xiangling shook her head, "Not to mention that I don't know if they are no longer alive, and it's not very tight," Xiangling looked a little lacking, and said with a big grin, "It's good at home, the wife and the uncle are very good to me." ”
Xiangling said a few words and put down the plate of oranges, "I have this memory," Xiangling patted her head and complained to herself, "I also said that I would prepare something for the uncle, and the three girls sat down." ”
Xiangling walked away like a whirlwind again, Tanchun saw Xiangling so free and easy, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, thinking that this Xiangling was also an orphan girl in the Xue family, and had nothing to rely on, but everyone in the family here seemed to be her dependent, and she was in Rongguo Mansion, Ronghua and wealth, there were fathers and brothers, mothers, and sisters, but after thinking about it, looking back on herself, she didn't seem to have anyone to rely on, the wonder of life, the difference in fate, it can also be seen.
After thinking about it for a while, everyone came back, Daiyu and Baochai pulled Xiangyun's arm left and right, Baoyu smiled, "Yun girl is still reluctant to come, but fortunately, Sister Bao and Sister Lin pulled her here at once." ”
Xiangyun said with a smile, "I don't have as thick skin as you, the Xue family brother only came back, you are not prepared to catch the wind and wash the dust, but you are here to eat and drink, my generation of ice and jade people disdain to be with you." ”
Yingchun and Li Kun also arrived, and Li Kun couldn't help laughing when he heard Xiangyun's words, "Yun girl, Brother Pan used to have a very good saying, called: make a fortune with a muffled voice." Let's have such a lively fun today, why do we want to say these things, don't say it quickly. ”
