It is said that Mrs. Wang sent someone to call Baochai, and Baochai came over quickly to say hello.Mrs. Wang said: "Your third sister is going to get married now, so you have to enlighten her as sister-in-laws, which is also the love of your sisters."Besides, she is also a sensible child, and I think the two of you get along very well.It's just that I heard that Baoyu cried terribly when he heard his third sister go out, so you should persuade him.Now my body is suffering from ten diseases and nine pains, and your second sister-in-law is also good for three days and bad for two days.You should be more understanding, don't talk about everything, just swallow it, and don't want to offend others. In the future, all family affairs will be your burden.Baochai agreed.Mrs. Wang said again: "One more thing, your second sister-in-law brought the daughter-in-law of the Liu family yesterday, and said she was staying in your room."Baochai said, "Ping'er just brought it here today, saying it was the idea of ​​his wife and second grandma."Mrs. Wang said: "Yes, your second sister-in-law told me that it doesn't matter to me, so I can't refute her answer."Just one thing, I saw that the child's eyebrows and eyes were not very settled.At first I kicked out a few girls like foxes in Baoyu's room, and you knew it at that time, otherwise why would you have moved back home.With you now, it is naturally not as good as before.I tell you, just be careful.In your house, even the child Xiren can still make use of.Baochai agreed, said a few more words, and came over.When I went to Tanchun's side after dinner, I had some kind and consoling words, so I don't need to elaborate.

The next day, Tanchun was about to get up, and came to say goodbye to Baoyu again.Baoyu is naturally inseparable.Tanchun bowed his head and remained silent at the beginning of Baoyu's general words, but later turned sad and happy, as if he had the intention of awakening.So Tanchun bid farewell to everyone at ease, boarded the sedan chair, and drove away by boat. In the past, all the sisters lived in the Grand View Garden, but after the death of Concubine Jia, they did not repair it.When Baoyu got married, Lin Daiyu died, Shi Xiangyun went back, Baoqin lived at home, there were few people in the garden, and the weather was cold. Sisters Li Wan, Tanchun, Xichun and others all moved back to the old place.At the end of the day, we still meet to play together.Now that Tanchun is gone, Baoyu doesn't go out of the house after being ill, and there are no more happy people.So the garden is lonely, and only a few gardeners live there. On that day, Mrs. You came to see Tanchun up, and because he could save a car in the evening, he walked through the gate that opened to Ningfu in the garden the year before last. .I feel desolate everywhere, the terraces and pavilions are still there, and the area around the female wall is like a garden, and I feel lost in my heart.When I got home, I felt a little feverish. After struggling for a day or two, I fell down.Fever during the day is okay, but at night the body is abnormally hot, and he is delirium.Jia Zhen quickly asked the doctor to see her.It is said that it started from a cold, but now the menstrual entanglement has entered the Stomach Meridian of Foot Yangming, so the delirium is unclear, if you see it, you will be safe if you have a big filth.Youshi took two doses, and it didn't decrease a bit, and became even more frantic.

Jia Zhen was anxious, so she called Jia Rong to find out if there were good doctors outside, and then invited some to come and have a look.Jia Rong replied: "The former imperial physician is the most fashionable."I'm afraid my mother's illness is not cured by medicine.Jia Zhen said, "Nonsense!"Don't take medicine, should he go?Jia Rong said: "It's not that I'm dead."The reason is that the day before yesterday, my mother went home from Xifu, and came home in her garden clothes. When she got home, she had a fever, so don't bump into someone.There is a Mao Banxian outside, who is from the south, and he is very good at divination. Why don't you invite him to divination.If there is a letter, just follow him. If it doesn't work, call another good doctor.

After hearing this, Jia Zhen immediately called for someone to come.Sitting in the study and drinking tea, he said: "The family called me, what's the matter?"Jia Rong said: "My mother is sick, please ask for a divination."Mao Banxian said: In that case, wash your hands with clean water and set up an incense table.Just let me take a lesson and watch it.For a while, the servants made arrangements.Then he took out the hexagram tube from his arms, walked up to the top, made a respectful bow, shook the hexagram tube in his hand, and said in his mouth: Fuyi Taiji Liangyi, sympathy with the body.Books come out and change endlessly, and sacred works are sincerely answered.Here is a trustworthy official named Jia, because of his mother's illness, I piously ask Fuxi, King Wen, Duke Zhou, and Confucius, the four great sages, to learn from you, and sincerity will lead to spirituality.Please first ask the three lines of inner image.As he said, he poured the money in the tube into the plate, and said that if there is a spirit, the first line is to pay.I picked it up and shook it again, poured it out, and said it was single.The third line is cross again.Picking up the money, he said yes: the inner line has been shown, and the outer line is asked to complete the three hexagrams.When it comes out, it is single, dismantled, single.The Mao Banxian took the hexagram tube and the copper coins, sat down and asked, "Please sit down, please sit down."Let me take a closer look.This hexagram is the hexagram of Weiji.Shiyao is the third line, Brother Wuhuo robs wealth, there must be bad luck.Now the respected driver asks the mother about the disease, using the gods is the first line, it is really the official ghost that the parents moved out of the line.There is another layer of official ghosts on the fifth line. I think Mrs. Lingtang's illness is not serious.It's okay, it's okay, now Zihai's water is resting, and Yinmu moves to light a fire.A descendant was moved out of Shiyao, which can overcome ghosts.What's more, the sun and the moon are born, and after two days, the Zishui official and ghost will be lost, and it will be fine in Xuri.However, if the parents change into ghosts on the line, I am afraid that your father will also be a little bit in the way.Even if the line of one's own life is too heavy than the robbery, it is not good when the water is prosperous and the soil is declining.After speaking, he sat with his beard pouted.

At first, Jia Rong heard him making troubles, and couldn't help laughing in her heart. He heard that the hexagrams he said made sense, and said that she was afraid that her father would be bad, so she said: "The hexagrams are very clever, but I don't know what is wrong with my mother?"Mao Banxian said, "According to this hexagram, Shiyao's noon fire transforms into water, which must be the condensation of cold fire."If you want to make a clear decision, you can't really understand it unless you use the big Liuren.Jia Rong said: "Are you all smart, sir?"Mao Banxian said: I know better.Jia Rong wanted to ask for advice and reported an hour.Mr. Mao then drew a plate and counted the arrangement of the gods and generals. It was Xushang Baihu. This class is called the Pokémon class.Generally, the white tiger is a fierce general, and if it is restrained by the prosperous weather, it cannot do harm.Now, riding on the God of Death, and imprisoned to death in due time, it is a hungry tiger, which must be hurting people.Just like the spirit of soul is frightened and dissipates, so it is called soul transformation.This lesson seems to say that the body is bereaved and ghosts are still in sorrow, many diseases and deaths, and lawsuits are worrying.It seems that the sun is setting and the tiger is coming, so it must be sick in the evening.Xiangnei said that anyone who occupies this lesson must be haunted by tigers in the old house, or there may be visible noises.Now the honor is occupied by an adult, and the tiger is worrying about men in yang and women in yin.This class is very dangerous.Jia Rong didn't finish listening, she turned pale with fright and said: "Sir, what you said is very true."But it doesn't quite match with that hexagram. Is there any hindrance?Mao Banxian said: Don't panic, wait for me to read it slowly.He lowered his head and muttered for a while, then said: Well, there is a savior!It is calculated that there is a noble god to rescue him, which is called the return of the soul.It's okay to be worried before being happy, as long as you are careful.

Jia Rong gave the hexagram gold, sent it out, and reported back to Jia Zhen, saying: "My mother got sick in the evening in the old house, because she hit some dead white tiger."Jia Zhen said: "You said that your mother came back from the garden the day before yesterday, but she didn't bump into it there."Do you still remember that your second aunt went to the garden and got sick when she came back?Although she didn't see anything, the girls and wives later said that it was a hairy thing on the mountain, with eyes as big as lanterns, and could talk, and drove her second grandmother back, scaring her into a sickness.Jia Rong said: "Why don't you remember!"I also heard Mingyan from Uncle Bao's house say that Qingwen has become the goddess of the hibiscus flowers in the garden. Miss Lin is dead, and there is music in the air, so she must be in charge of some flowers.Thinking that there are so many monsters in the garden, it's amazing!There are many people in the head, so it doesn't matter if you come and go frequently.Now when she is in the cold, mother walks around, but she doesn't know what kind of flower she has kicked, otherwise, she will bump into that one.That hexagram is still accurate.Jia Zhen said, "Is there any hindrance?"Jia Rong said: "According to him, it will be all right in Xuri."I only hope that it will be good two days earlier, or two days apart.Jia Zhen said: "What does this mean?"Jia Rong said: "If the gentleman is so accurate, I'm afraid the master will feel a little uncomfortable."

Just as I was talking, it was shouted that grandma was going to sit in the garden over there, and the girls couldn't hold back.Jia Zhen waited in to comfort her.I only heard Youshi talking nonsense: those who wear red come to call me, and those who wear green come and chase me away!These people underground are both scared and funny.Jia Zhen ordered someone to buy some paper money and send it to the garden for burning.Sure enough, he was sweating that night, so he became quieter.On the day of Xu, it gradually got better. Therefore, one person passed on ten, and ten people passed on to a hundred, and they all said that there were monsters in the Grand View Garden.Those who look at the garden don't prune flowers and trees, and irrigate fruits and vegetables.At first, they dared not walk at night, and the birds and beasts threatened them. Even in the daytime, they walked with their companions armed with weapons.After a while, it turned out that Jia Zhen fell ill.He didn't ask a doctor for treatment, at least he went to the garden to make a wish, and at worst he worshiped the stars.Jia Zhenfang was well, but Jia Rong and others fell ill one after another.This continued for several months, causing both governments to be afraid.Since then, there has been a lot of turmoil, and all the plants and trees are monsters.All the futures in the garden are full, and the monthly cases of each house are added again, which makes the Rongfu even more difficult.Those who watch the garden have no idea, they all want to leave here, and every time they make troubles, they make up flower demons and tree monsters, and they have to move out, and seal the gate of the garden, so that no one dares to enter the garden.As a result, Chonglou, Gaoge, Qiongguan and Yaotai are all inhabited by animals.

But it is said that Qingwen's cousin Wu Guizheng lives at the gate of the garden. Since Qingwen's death, his wife has heard that she has become the god of flowers, so she dare not go out every night.On this day, Wu Gui went shopping and came back late.The daughter-in-law had a cold and took the wrong medicine during the day. When Wu Gui arrived home at night, she died on the kang.Because the wife was not suitable, people outside said that the monster climbed over the wall and sucked the sperm to death.So the old lady was very anxious, and sent many other people to surround Baoyu's house and patrol and fight.These little girls also said that when some saw red faces and some saw very handsome women, they made a lot of noise.Baoyu was frightened every day.Fortunately, Baochai was in control, and when he heard the girls talking nonsense, he threatened to fight, so those rumors were a little better.Helplessly, the people in each room are suspicious and uneasy, and there are more people sitting on the table, so they have more food.

Only Jia Amnesty didn't believe it very much, and said: "Have a good garden, what kind of ghosts are there!"I picked a day with a clear wind and a warm sun, and brought several family members with me to the garden to watch the movement with equipment in hand.Everyone advised him not to follow.When I arrived in the garden, it was really dark.Jia Amnesty was still struggling to move forward, and the people who followed all turned their heads.There was a young family member inside who was already terrified. He only heard a whoosh, and when he turned around, he saw a colorful thing jumping over. .Jia Amnesty turned around to question, and the boy replied breathlessly: I saw a monster with a yellow face, red beard, green clothes and green clothes go to the cave in the mountain behind the woods.When Jia Amnesty heard this, he became a little timid and asked, "Have you all seen it?"A few people who pushed the boat along the water said: "Why didn't I see it, because the master is in the head, so I dare not be alarmed."The minions can hold on.It made Jia Amnesty so frightened that he didn't dare to leave again. He hurried back and told the boys: Don't mention it, just say that you have read it all and there is nothing.I really believe in my heart, I want to go to the real man's mansion to ask the judge to exorcise the evil spirits.Unexpectedly, those family members would make troubles even if they had nothing to do. Seeing that Jia Amnesty was afraid now, not only did they not hide it, but they added some persuasive words, which made everyone stick out their tongues.

Jia Amnesty had no choice but to invite Taoist priests to the garden to perform rituals to drive away evil spirits and demons.On an auspicious day, first set up a mandala on the main hall of the provincial relatives, and enshrine the holy images of the Sanqing, next to the twenty-eight nights and horses, Zhao, Wen, and Zhou generals, and the images of the thirty-six generals on the lower row.The whole hall is filled with incense, flowers, lamps and candles, and the bells, drums and ritual instruments are lined up on both sides, and the flags of the five directions are inserted.The Daoji Division appointed forty-nine deacons of the Taoists to clean the altar for a day.After the three judges offered incense and fetched water, they beat the Dharma drums. The mages all wore seven-star crowns, robes of nine palaces and eight trigrams, stepped on cloud shoes, and held tooth wats in their hands.After another day of reading the "Dong Yuan Jing", which eliminates disasters and exorcises evil spirits and receives blessings, it will be listed and called for generals.The great book Taiyi Hunyuan Shangqing Three Realms Lingbao Talisman recorded and performed to teach the master to write and order the gods in this realm to listen to and use at the altar.

On that day, the men from the two mansions relied on the magic master to catch the demon, and they all went to the garden to watch, and they all said: What a great decree!Calling God to send generals to make a fuss, no matter how many monsters there are, they will run away.Everyone crowded to the altar.I saw the little Taoist priests raised their flags and stood in five directions, waiting for the mage's orders.Three sorcerers, one holding a sword and magic water; one holding a seven-star soap flag; one holding a mahogany whip, stood in front of the altar.Just listen to the stop of the magic weapon, the token on the top three times, and the words in the mouth, and the five square flags will be scattered all over the place.The mage went down from the altar and asked his family to lead him to various pavilions, pavilions, corridors, houses, and cliffs and watersides. He sprinkled Dharma water and drew his sword finger once.Come back and hit the card order in a row, and raised the seven-star flag. All the Taoist priests gathered the flag and streamers together, and then hit the monster whip three times.Everyone in my family said that they had seized the monster and were scrambling to see it. When they got to the front, they didn't see anything.I saw the mage asked all the Taoists to take the bottles and jars, take the demons and seal them.The mage's vermilion pen calligraphy was banned, and people were taken back to live under the pagoda of the temple, while withdrawing the altar to thank the general. Jia Amnesty respectfully thanked the mage.Jia Rong and other little brothers couldn't help laughing behind their backs, and said: "Such a big show, I will show us the monsters. What are they? How do you know that they are collected in this way? Did the monsters take them?"When Jia Zhen heard it, she scolded: "Stupid thing!"Monsters used to form when they gather, and when they disperse, they form Qi. How many gods are here now, do they dare to show themselves?It's nothing more than taking this evil spirit away, so it won't cause trouble, it's mana.Everyone will believe and doubt, and wait until there is no sound.Those servants only knew that the monster had been captured and became suspicious, so they didn't make a fuss, and no one mentioned it later.When Jia Zhen and others recovered from their illnesses, they all knew the magic power of the mage.Only one kid said with a smile: I don't know about the noises in my head, but on the day I followed the old man into the garden, it was obviously a big pheasant flying past, Shuan'er was so scared that he looked away, it sounded like it.We all made a lie for him, and the old man became serious.Instead, I saw a very lively mandala.Although the people heard it, they were willing to believe it, but no one lived there. One day, Jia Amnesty had nothing to do, and was about to ask some servants of his family to move to the garden and guard the house, lest the adulterer be hidden at night.Fang wanted to spread the word, but saw Jia Lian come in, invited Ann, and said that today when he went to his uncle's house, he heard a rumor that the second uncle was joined by the Jiedu envoy in order to oversee his subordinates and requisition grain and rice. , Please decree dismissal.When Jia Amnesty heard this, he was surprised and said: I'm afraid it's just a rumor?The other day, your second uncle brought a book and said that Tanchun arrived at the office on a certain day. He chose an auspicious time and sent your sister to the coastal area.It is also said that Jiedu recognizes relatives, and congratulates people with banquets instead. Where are there people who become relatives and propose to participate?And don't need to speak, just go to the official department to find out, and come back to me. Jia Lian went out immediately, and when he came back within half a day, he said, "I just went to the Ministry of Officials to inquire, and it turned out that my second uncle was involved."The inscription went up, thanks to the emperor's grace, he did not hand over to the Ministry, so he issued a decree, saying: Neglecting subordinates, requisitioning grain and rice, and tyrannying the people, should have been dismissed. , Downgraded to three levels, Jia En still went up as a member of the Ministry of Industry, and was ordered to return to Beijing today.This letter is accurate.While the officials were talking, a Jiangxi county magistrate came, and he was very grateful to talk about our second uncle.But he is said to be a good boss, but he employs inappropriate people. Those family members are bluffing and deceiving and bullying subordinates, which has already ruined his good reputation.Lord Jiedu already knew it, and said that our second uncle is a good person.I don't know how, but this time I participated again.I think it's because the trouble is not good, and I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe in the future, so I borrowed an oversight to participate, but I don't know if it means avoiding the serious and taking the light.Before Jia Amnesty had finished hearing, he called Jia Lian: "Go and tell your aunt first, and you don't have to tell the old lady."Jia Lian went back to Mrs. Wang.I don't know what to say, I will break it down next time.
