Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

"This is not luck, this is bad luck, right? If you are determined to do this and be a bad guest, I will go back."

Lin Daiyu thought to herself that what she hated most was the endless annoyance.

No matter what the reason is, people become monks just to seek peace and quiet. Oh my god, a group of people kept knocking on the door.

If it were me, I would hit you with a club as soon as you open the door.

Xue Baochai lowered her head and thought for a moment, "Sister Lin is right, we were indeed presumptuous."

"Sister Lin, do you have any ideas?"

Lin Daiyu was happy. What method is needed for this? I have to use my brain for everything. I am so tired.

"If we want to enjoy the plum blossoms, we can do so standing outside the door."

"If you want to visit a friend, let someone claim to be Miaoyu's friend and knock on the door."

"If you are nothing but think you are shameless enough to come and visit, then you should find someone shameless enough to knock on the door."

"If even the big face is not okay, then others should not try to be shameless."

Upon hearing this, Tanchun immediately nodded in agreement, "Sister Lin is right. Who has a big face?"

Everyone turned their eyes to Jia Baoyu at the same time.

Shi Xiangyun clapped her hands and congratulated him, "Yes, yes, yes, there is no one with a bigger face than Second Brother."

As she spoke, she pushed Baoyu, "You go ahead!

As he spoke, he gestured forward with his hand. Everyone stepped back two steps, and Jia Baoyu automatically stood in front of the door.

He turned his head and looked at everyone, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.

"What do you mean by that moment?"

Shi Xiangyun was happy, "You can say whatever you want."

Xue Baochai shook her head and said, "We can't just say whatever we want. Monks are compassionate and we have to ask for something."

"Just say that the old lady is ill, and because of the theft in the mansion, she wants to ask Miaoyu to help her with the writing of the planchette to find out where the stolen items are."

When she said this, Lin Daiyu and Sanchun were shocked.

Lin Daiyu felt that according to the book "Dream of Red Mansions", the theft was simply a fairy tale and an excuse. Using an excuse to ask someone to do spirit writing was just setting a trap for people to fall into, wasn't it?

Sanchun was still frightened by the incident and didn't want to talk about it again.

Shi Xiangyun thought it was feasible, which showed her compassion for the world.

Jia Baoyu's eyes darkened. It was because of the stolen items and the death of Qingwen that he should get to the bottom of it.

Let’s see where the culprit is.

Thinking of this, he made up his mind and knocked on the door of the nunnery "Dang! Dang! Dang".

After three knocks, a voice came from inside the door asking, "Who's knocking at the door?"

Jia Baoyu replied, "The Master of Yihong Courtyard"

The voice of the little nun inside directly rejected it.

"The abbot of the temple does not see guests!"

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he refused and looked back twice.

What should I do? Go back, or keep knocking on the door?

It would be rude to continue.

Xue Baochai walked forward and bowed towards the door, not caring whether others could see it or not.

"The old lady in the mansion is seriously ill. We have come here to ask the abbot for some advice."

"I hope the abbot will give me some advice!"

There was an immediate silence from inside. After waiting for a while, the door creaked open from the inside, and a little nun came out.

In one hand he held a small sandbox with a few chess pieces on it.

The little nun saluted with one hand.

"The abbot has ordered that the small Longcui Nunnery cannot accommodate so many donors."

"Here are a few chess pieces. You can grab them at will. If you can grab one with words on it, you will be the destined person for today."

"please!"

The girls looked at each other in surprise. It turned out that the threshold to enter the Longcui Temple was so high that even a big face would not work?

Shi Xiangyun never kept her mouth shut, so she asked the little nun, "How many of these do you have with words on them?"

The little nun smiled and shook her head.

Jia Baoyu looked at Shi Xiangyun and said, "I think it was set up by the nunnery abbot, and she may not know about it."

"Let's all grab it and give it a try!"

Shi Xiangyun reached out her hand and muttered, "Don't you have any at all?"

After saying that, she grabbed it first and chose the one closest to her.

She opened it and jumped for joy. It really was there.

"Is this it?"

She held the chess piece and showed it to the little nun, who nodded.

I saw a word engraved on the other side of the chess piece, "Cui".

When the others saw that Shi Xiangyun had taken the initiative, they rushed forward.

Finally, there were still two people with characters. One of them was Daiyu, who took the character "栊".

Xichun picked up the character "An".

All that is left is emptiness.

Others didn't care, but the convener Xue Baochai and the big-faced man Baoyu felt a little uncomfortable.

How could this be?

"Just three 'Longcui Temple' is too few, can we add a few more?"

The little nun shook her head.

"The three of you, please come in!" The little nun said as she made room for one person to pass through the door.

Interestingly, Lin Daiyu was the first to step in.

Xichun looked at everyone, pursed her lips, and went in.

Only Shi Xiangyun felt embarrassed, as if she had snatched the fate of Xue Baochai and Jia Baoyu.

She said hesitantly, "How about I give it to you?"

"But I only have one, who should I give it to?"

Xue Baochai held the handkerchief tightly in both hands. She comforted Shi Xiangyun, "Sister Yun, go ahead!"

"Don't forget, Fuqi! The old lady is worried."

"I believe you!"

As he said this, he patted Shi Xiangyun's hand.

Shi Xiangyun nodded heavily, "Don't worry, Sister Bao, wait for my good news."

After saying that, he strode in.

……

Longcui Nunnery is quiet and peaceful, with seven or eight little nuns sweeping the floor leisurely.

Some were arranging dead branches of flowers and trees, and some were holding scriptures, and I wonder if they were reciting scriptures.

Lin Daiyu looked around and thought this was indeed a good place for hermits.

Flowers and trees are luxuriant, fragrance wafts all year round, scriptures are lingering, and the sound of Sanskrit is faint.

Miaoyu Miaoyu, the jade among all wonders.

At the entrance of the nunnery, Miaoyu, with a Buddhist dustpan draped over her arm, bowed with one hand and said,

"Welcome all donors. This small temple is simple and I am sorry for the inconvenience."

Shi Xiangyun threw the chess piece in her hand upwards, then reached out to catch it.

"Master Miaoyu, what do you mean?"

Miaoyu looked at the chess piece in Shi Xiangyun's hand and nodded slightly.

"Donor, you are not a foolish person. Don't you know that the chess piece in your hand is destined to be with you?"

Shi Xiangyun blinked her eyes back and forth, and asked in confusion, "What is fate? Is it this word Cui?"

"My maid's name is Cuilu. Is this fate?"

Miaoyu did not answer, but stepped in.

"Please sit inside! I asked Xiao Ni to prepare some tea."

"We'll drink and talk."

In order to be mysterious, Shi Xiangyun walked in while pouting.

There are four futons next to the tea table inside.

As expected, only three people could be accommodated, so the tea table was set up on all four sides, and Miaoyu occupied the main seat.

You can use the remaining three sides as you like.

Since they were free to do so, the three of them sat down at the three locations in Longcui Temple without any prior arrangement.

Dong Daiyu occupies the character "栊".

Opposite Miaoyu, Shi Xiangyun is represented by the character “翠”.

Xi Xichun, occupies the character "An".

The three of them sat down one by one, reached out to take the teacup in front of them, and took a sip of tea.

Qi Qi asked,

"Master Miaoyu, it's time to clear up my confusion, right?"
