Red Mansion Jia Lan: Do you want to run away tonight to visit your relatives? Chapter 104: At the end of the banquet, I asked what my plans were. I wanted to travel to Jialan and go south.
Chapter 104: At the end of the banquet, I asked what my plans were. I wanted to travel to Jialan and go south.
Everyone happily ate crabs and drank wine. Jia Mu was old, and it was enough to have a taste of something new under the service of Sister Feng. Then she ate a few more bites of vegetables and drank a small glass of wine.
His face suddenly turned rosy, and he just looked at the young people in the room with a smile.
She doesn't care about anything else, she just likes the lively feeling of having children and grandchildren in the house.
When everyone had finished eating, Jia Mu said to Jia Lan, "What are Lan'er's plans now that she has won the lottery?"
Hearing this, everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks and looked at Jia Lan curiously, waiting for him to speak.
Jia Lan looked around at all the aunts, sat up straight and replied: "To be honest with our ancestors, Lan'er has actually thought about it. After the Luming Banquet, she will first go to meet her master and the teachers from the academy, and then she plans to go to the south.
Take a trip."
"Travel?" Li Wan was a little surprised. Originally, she was sure that Jia Lan would stay at home and prepare for the exam in March next year. Now that she heard that Jia Lan was actually planning to travel, she couldn't help but ask: "Lan'er? Are you planning to go out for travel next year?"
Aren’t you going to take the exam?”
Jia Lan's eyes widened: "Who said that?"
Daiyu said at the side: "It's less than four months before the March National Examination. If you go out to travel in such a short time, not to mention whether it's too late, aren't you afraid of not passing the National Exam?
Xie Yuanlang actually failed to make the list, and his face doesn’t look good.”
"My aunt's words make sense, but Yasheng once said, 'It is better to have no books than to believe in all the books.' Dong Qichang of the former Ming Dynasty also said, 'Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles.' I feel that I have read a lot of books in the past two years.
But the more you watch, the more complicated your thoughts become. In this case, it’s better to go out for a walk.”
After hearing this, Daiyu nodded thoughtfully: "You are trapped in a barrier of knowledge, so it is appropriate to go out for a walk."
"What kind of chaotic exam, what good test is there, it's really annoying to hear it..." Baoyu hated the imperial examination the most, and thought to himself.
"Love my brother!" Shi Xiangyun slapped Baoyu with his ears, almost arousing his rebellion. Fortunately, Baochai on the other end saw this and said in time: "Brother Bao is acting stupid again? Are you not afraid of Mr. Zheng?" Sure enough, the power of Jia Zheng, the Great Demon King, was astonishing. Baoyu was so frightened that he trembled and did not dare to say anything.
Shi Xiangyun burst out laughing and looked at Xue Baochai, who was smiling.
Jia Mu obviously did not pay attention to Baoyu. Her attention was all on Daiyu's words. She was obviously a little frightened and asked quickly: "What is the barrier to seeing? Is there any serious problem?"
Mrs. Wang, who was standing by, was stunned when she heard this. She is a person who understands Buddhism and knows how to see obstacles and so on.
Daiyu smiled slightly: "Ancestor, please rest assured, the so-called intellectual and visual barriers are not a big terror. I once heard my father say, 'The more you know, the more you don't know. After reading a lifetime, your intellectual and visual barriers will become more and more difficult.'
There is no reduction.' Later, my father realized that he had fallen into a confusion, and ordinary people often fall into confusion without realizing it. Lan'er is talented and intelligent, and now that he is aware of it, there is nothing wrong with him."
Sister Feng waved her palms and said, "When Miss Lin said this, I was reminded of a play, which tells the story of one of the Eight Immortals, Han Xiangzilan, who was sent to guard Han Yu. It seems to mention intellectual impairment."
"Sister Feng, you remember it very well, that's right." Daiyu smiled and nodded.
"Oh, ancestors, it seems that not only Brother Bao, but also Brother Lan is also a transparent person. Han Yu's name has even been heard by me, a housebound woman, and Brother Lang is even more powerful than him!" Jia Lan laughed loudly: "What Aunt Feng said is not accurate to what is said in the play."
Moreover, Han Yu suppressed Buddhism all his life. The background of the story of Han Xiangzi Lan Guandu Han Yu was precisely Han Yu's "Admonition to Welcome the Buddha's Bone Table", which angered Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty and was demoted to Chaozhou. Jia Lan did not believe that such a person would suddenly be converted.
.
If he was transformed by something, it was definitely not Han Xiangzi, but Chaozhou cuisine.
Horseshoe crabs, oysters, catfish, clams, octopus, Jiang Yaozhu, and snakes, dozens of unseen foods, and a unique way of eating made Han Yu "face red, ears red, and sweat frequently."
So it didn't take long for him to go to the table to admit his mistake to Emperor Xianzong of Tang Dynasty. This was the "Chaozhou Governor Xie Shangbiao" that was wildly ridiculed by Ouyang Xiu and others.
Han Yu only stayed in Chaozhou for eight months.
"Amitabha, that's good!" Jia Mu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Jia Lan's clear and translucent eyes were fixed on Daiyu, and his mouth curled up unconsciously. He was obviously happy that Daiyu understood him, and he was also happy for Daiyu's state of mind.
To be able to self-examine, only those who have experienced it and come out of it can understand it.
Everyone started chatting with each other about where Jialan had traveled. Jialan noticed that Daiyu's head was hanging down, her teeth were clenched, and there was something gloomy between her brows. She rolled her eyes and understood immediately, it must be...
The mention of Lin Ruhai just now aroused Daiyu's longing for her family.
After thinking about it in his mind, Jia Lan stood up and said: "Old ancestor, I plan to go to my hometown in Jinling to see the roots of our Jia family, and also go to the graves of my aunt and grandma in Gusu Lin to lay a pillar.
Reminiscent of the fragrance.
I keep going back and forth like this, and I will be able to return to Shenjing before the first month in less than two months."
After hearing what Jia Lan said, Daiyu's body trembled slightly, and she looked at him with indescribable surprise in her eyes, her face moved.
Mother Jia's face changed after hearing this. Speaking of Gusu, not only Daiyu's father was buried there, but also her favorite daughter Jia Min. She raised her sleeves to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes and looked at Jia Lan.
He kept nodding: "You are a filial person. It's okay to go to your hometown in Jinling. Anyway, there will be relatives taking care of you there, which makes you more reassured than going anywhere!"
After the second Duke of Ning Rong, the Jia clan had a total of twenty houses. Except for Ning and Rong, who sent eight houses in the capital, there were twelve houses in Jinling.
Everyone nodded after hearing this.
"I'm going too! I'm also going to offer incense to Uncle Lin!"
Suddenly Baoyu shouted, and everyone was startled by him.
Mrs. Wang had been so tiring all this way last week, so she quickly tried to persuade her. Even Jia's mother was reluctant to let Baoyu go, but Jia Baoyu just held her head and said she must go.
Sister Feng gave a sweet smile and persuaded: "Brother Bao, Brother Lan is just visiting Gusu on the way. He has been sleeping in the open air along the way. Can you bear this hard work? My wife has been away for a full year.
Come back!"
Jia Lan also laughed: "On this journey south, there are always people who are nowhere to be found. A few men lie down together for the night. Can Uncle Bao bear it?"
Baoyu was born with a strong love for cleanliness, so he hesitated when he heard this.
Sister Feng said again: "Brother Bao has a filial piety, why don't we each go to our own places? I'll ask my servants to prepare a speedboat and I'll go with Brother Bao and the young man on my own?"
After hearing this, Baoyu twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that he originally just wanted to say goodbye to Jia Lan. If they went their separate ways, why not stay in the house and play with other sisters? Sister Lin is not going anyway...
That's right! Sister Lin won't go! Baoyu's eyes lit up, so he waved his hands repeatedly: "In that case, I won't go!"
Everyone laughed again when they saw his appearance.
Amidst the laughter, Jia Lan and Dai Yu looked at each other and smiled.
