9. Self-enjoyment
I never thought that Xue Pan was so intimate, so he said that he would buy a good one and send it to Tanchun, Tanchun was quite embarrassed, "Brother Xue is kind, I didn't dare to quit originally, but I just said so, but I asked my brother for something." ”
"What's this, don't be angry with Huan'er," Xue Pan said with a smile, the "Huan'er" they said was Tanchun's younger brother of the same mother, Jia Huan, who was also born and raised by Aunt Zhao, Jia Zheng's third son, and also a concubine, and now a few years younger than Baoyu, it is the most naughty time, Xue Pan talked about Jia Huan like this, and couldn't help but ask: "Why didn't Huan'er come here today?" ”
Hearing this, Tanchun's goose egg had a slightly wry smile on his face, and then disappeared without a trace, "What is his identity, I'm afraid it's not good to come here, my wife doesn't want to see him, and I don't want to see him, so I do something useless every day." ”
Tanchun said that there was an unhappy temper, Xue Pan knew the reason, so he put it aside, at this time Li Kun came to see what the three of them were eating and drinking, and saw Xue Pan pour wine, so he smiled: "The eldest brother can drink by himself, but he is not allowed to drink with the third sister and the fourth sister." ”
"This is nature," Xue Pan said, "they drink tea, and I don't dare to take them to drink." ”
Xichun waited until Li Kun left, and quietly said to Xue Pan, "Big brother, what do you say this wine tastes like?" The sister-in-law and grandmothers were strict, saying that I was still young and couldn't drink alcohol. I don't know what wine tastes like, Li Taibai has a hundred poems about wine, presumably this wine is an excellent thing? ”
Xue Pan saw Xichun's expectant eyes, smiled slightly, he thought about it, "This wine, it seems to be a very strange thing, if my sister has read a book, she must know that this lotus flower can only be viewed from a distance, not blasphemous, and the same is true for wine, look at when others drink, it is really Qiong Jelly and Jade Dew, if you taste it yourself, it actually doesn't taste very good," Xue Pan raised his palm, put it to his mouth, and said mysteriously to Xichun, "You are not a big deal, sister remember my words, what you can't get is the best, My sister can't drink alcohol now, and she thinks that wine is a good thing, but in fact, she really drank it, and that's just it. ”
Xichun nodded as if he didn't understand, but Tanchun understood Xue Pan's words, and his eyes flashed with an inexplicable look, "No wonder Sister Lin said that Brother Xue is very philosophical, and I never thought that this daily speech also has the style of Lao Zhuang." ”
"Naturally," Xue Pan said with a smile, "the military family is too cruel, Confucianism wants to enter the WTO, Buddhism is avoiding dust, and Taoism is free and easy, which is very beautiful." ”
Tanchun is smart, and erudite, is the only one in the three springs who can compete with Bao Dai's two daughters to learn talents, naturally this reading talent is extremely high, and asked Xue Pan a few questions in a row, although Xue Pan does not understand very well, but perfunctory, but the words are said satisfactorily, this side of the conversation is lively, Xichun is a little impatient, he got out of the position and walked out of the cool platform, the two saw it and didn't care, she was originally a person from Dongfu, because there was no mother, Jia's mother felt sorry for this granddaughter, Therefore, he received Rongguofu to raise himself, and Xichun was in his own house, and there were a lot of grandmothers and maids, and he was afraid that he would lose it, so he didn't care.
Jia Mu and others saw that the play was lively, and they didn't pay attention to it for a while, Yingchun came over and called Tanchun to rest and change clothes together, Xue Pan was left alone at this table, and Xue Pan didn't want anyone to serve, but he poured himself and drank himself, and looked at the scenery under the cool stage, among the chrysanthemums, there was Tsing Yi Xiaodan singing tactfully, the sky was high and the clouds were light, the pavilions were beautiful, and there was wine and food, this day, it was really comfortable.
Xue Pan leaned lazily on the chair, enjoying himself, not wanting Daiyu to see it over there, he walked over again, and smiled at Xue Pan, "Brother Pan is happy?" ”
"Fun! There is joy, joy of the heart, and natural joy. Xue Pan stretched his waist and asked Daiyu to sit down, "What, does my sister want to fight with me?" ”
"I see that my brother seems to be unhappy all the time," Daiyu sat down, Zijuan came up to pour tea for Daiyu, Daiyu said no, "It's really a very happy person." ”
"In these daily days, there are not many worries, so naturally I have to be happy," Xue Pan said, "With such a good scenery, why is my sister unhappy?" ”
Daiyu shook her head, "This scene should only exist in the sky, and it should be heard a few times in the world." It's just that although Liang Yuan is good, it is not his hometown after all. ”
She spoke so quietly, Xue Pan knew her thoughts, and said with a smile, "My sister misses my aunt?" If you think about it, why don't you go back to Yangzhou? ”
Daiyu shook her head again, "Daddy's letter told me to live in peace, saying that I will definitely return to Beijing in the spring of next year, since he said so, how can I say anything about going back to Yangzhou, there are ancestors and uncles here to take care of, and it is the same as at home." If I say this, they will be sad. ”
"It's just a matter of thinking about it in my spare time," Daiyu frowned, "not enough to mention." ”
"I see that my sister is free," Xue Pan said with a smile, "I will come to Lixiangyuan in my spare time, accompany your sister Bao, or help Brother Pan and me look at the account book, no matter how bad it is, I will follow Mama Wang to learn boxing and kicking, and I don't need to say what kung fu to practice, it is best to strengthen my body." ”
When Daiyu heard this, she couldn't help frowning, "Brother Pan said that I was in space, so do you think about it?" ”
"Thinking too much and helpless to solve the problem, you say that I am happy in my life, but I don't know that if I am unhappy, I can't solve the daily things, it's better to be free," Xue Pan smiled, he winked at Daiyu, "Do you say I want to go to Xian'an Palace?" ”
"I still know a thing or two about my brother's temperament," Daiyu said, slowly shaking her head, "I don't want to go." ”
"My sister understands me," Xue Pan smiled, "It's just that this matter is irreparable, so why be sad?" It's better to live a happy life at home for a few days, so that you are willing to enter the palace, the so-called 'dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water'. ”
Daiyu pursed her lips and snickered, "And I was going to re-enter the palace, ask my sister about the selection of the waiter, kill two birds with one stone, and it is more convenient to inquire about everything in the palace." ”
When Daiyu heard this, she couldn't help but sneer, "I knew that Brother Pan would not be so afraid of things, since I had the intention of entering the palace to inquire about the news, naturally this study was not a difficult thing, but it made me worry in vain for so many days." ”
Daiyu left angrily, Xue Pan was a little confused, what about talking so well, why did he suddenly get angry again? Just now, he was playing the role of a confidant big brother and talking about the philosophy of life, why is this suddenly useless?
Daiyu sat back in her position angrily, Baoyu saw Daiyu's unhappy face, and hurriedly said, "Sister, what's wrong?" ”
