Red Mansion Jia Lan: Do you want to run away tonight to visit your relatives? Chapter 221 The crimson beads return tears and the singing makes people laugh
Chapter 221 The crimson beads return tears and the singing makes people laugh
"Crimson...bead...?"
Lin Daiyu silently recited these two words that were very familiar to her. Suddenly, she felt a sense of nostalgia, and her eyes filled with tears before she knew it.
"Why are you crying?"
When Jia Lan saw it, he quickly called Xue Yan, took a clean handkerchief from her hand and handed it to Dai Yu. The latter took it and wiped away her tears. She shook her head in response to the concerned eyes of Jia Lan and the girls. "I don't know either, but when I heard the word Jiangzhu, I suddenly felt a sense of sadness and couldn't stop crying."
Seeing that the two were not quarreling, Xue Yan was slightly relieved and joked with a smile: "Girls are made of water. No matter what they hear or think about, they cry non-stop."
Jia Lan was also comforting him, but his heart trembled secretly, and all his spiritual senses were opened.
No exception, but...
In Lin Daiyu's subconscious, she still retains the instinct of Fairy Jiangzhu.
[Although looking at it now, this impact is almost negligible...]
Until today, Jia Lan has never noticed any traces related to Fairy Jiangzhu on Daiyu.
There doesn’t seem to be any intention of “returning tears”.
When he first traveled through time, Jia Lan mistakenly thought that Daiyu would be passionately devoted to Jia Baoyu, but this did not happen.
[It seems that only the word "Jiangzhu" can make her feel so sentimental.]
Jia Lan felt slightly relieved, but then his heart tightened again.
Ever since he knew that "immortals" existed in this world, he had become a little nervous.
In particular, the Ma Daopo incident and the mystery surrounding Qin Keqing gave rise to Jia Lan's idea of traveling for a long time to find out.
It's a pity that the progress is not very smooth.
In a year of being out, Jia Lan only encountered one incident related to mystery. The rest were mostly deceitful acts pretending to be mysterious powers.
Nothing unusual has been found in many places with the title of famous mountains and rivers.
Qingwen previously pointed out that Jia Lan was putting pressure on herself, which was actually correct.
Compared with the progress in cultivation before traveling, after one year of traveling, Jia Lan's cultivation is still at the entry stage of the Qi-Entraining Stage, and he has not even touched the threshold of the next small realm of the Qi-Entraining Stage.
Perhaps it was because the previous progress was so smooth that Jia Lan was a little blindly confident.
Unexpectedly, reality punched him immediately.
Therefore, after Lin Daiyu called out the word "Jiangzhu" on a whim, Jia Lan was a little worried.
There is always a feeling in my heart that this unclear relationship will bring uncontrollable risks.
Looking at Daiyu's pear blossoms with rain, Jia Lan said with some heartache: "I was rude and made Aunt Lin sad by giving a random name, so let's change it to another one..."
"No need!" Daiyu interrupted Jia Lan, "Just use this name, Jiangzhu Louzhu... Although I don't understand why, this name brings me an inexplicable touch, and I like it very much."
Jia Lan nodded suddenly: "Okay, since you like it, then use this name."
"Hmm..." Daiyu responded softly, lowering her head and remaining silent, as if she was still pondering the meaning of the word "Jiangzhu" to her.
Seeing Daiyu like this, Jia Lan felt a little guilty and wanted to say something to lighten the atmosphere. After thinking for a long time, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind and he chuckled to himself.
"What are you laughing at? You looked worried just now, and suddenly you laughed. It's really weird." Daiyu held a handkerchief in her hand and looked at Jia Lan in confusion.
"I suddenly remembered a piece of music."
"Ququ, you've actually neglected your job to this extent?" Daiyu's eyes were filled with surprise.
Jia Lan chuckled: "If you study hard all day long, you should always find some fun to spice things up."
"That's true..." Daiyu nodded in agreement, and asked faintly: "So, which opera troupe is our Jie Yuanlang obsessed with?"
"I didn't go to the theater?" Jia Lan looked surprised, "You know I've never really liked going to the theater."
A common problem among time travellers is that most of them are not interested in babbling operas.
Daiyu was even more surprised: "Then what song did you mention just now?"
"I sang randomly by myself... Well, I'll hum a few lines for you."
"Okay, okay!" Before Daiyu could say anything, the snow geese on the side had already applauded, and even called the purple cuckoo in.
Interesting things need to be shared by everyone, right?
Jialan opens his mouth to sing? That alone is strange enough.
Daiyu was also moved by the emotions of the two maids, and her eyes were fixed on Jia Lan, the curiosity in her eyes was self-evident.
In the silence in the room, Jia Lan stood up, picked up the ruler on the desk, and turned his back to Daiyu and the others.
"I laugh when I see you..."
As the first lyrics were sung softly, Jia Lan turned around and faced the three of them.
"Your graceful style is so wonderful
With you
Never worry~"
Lin Daiyu's eyes were round. In front of her, Jia Lan was holding a ruler to her mouth, singing, and drawing triangle symbols with her other hand as her body swayed.
"I laugh when I see you
Your conversation and behavior are really wonderful
With you
Never worry~"
After singing the song, Jia Lan also made a curtain call.
Daiyu woke up from the shock and burst into laughter.
Snow Goose and Zijuan were inspired by Daiyu, and they also started laughing.
The three of them laughed and couldn't help but bend down. Later, they couldn't laugh anymore, so they just hugged each other.
"As for..." Jia Lan looked at the three people, confused.
The three of them laughed even more happily after hearing this.
After a long time, Daiyu finally restrained her smile, with tears still in her eyes, and said angrily: "You call this Qu'er? There is no rhythm at all, it's almost village slang." p>
Xue Yan covered her mouth with her hands and said with a smile: "Girl, I think Lange's singing is better than the village slang after all."
Daiyu glanced sideways at the maid: "You should speak for him."
Zijuan also said: "Girl, I think it's better too. It sounds lively and catchy, and it's very interesting."
"You two are really out of tune!" Daiyu scolded with a smile, but there was a smile on her face.
"If your song is heard by senior officials, they will definitely scold you for breaking the rules. You must not do this outside."
Jia Lan responded, understanding that Dai Yu had good intentions.
Music is one of the six arts, and Confucians attach great importance to it. In the eyes of some defenders, Jialan's song is a deviant act.
"Shang Shu" says: Poems express aspirations, songs express eternal words, sounds depend on eternity, and rhythms are harmonious.
When something is cloaked in political ethics, all kinds of invisible constraints will come unexpectedly.
Even the people in the opera garden disdain the music that Jia Lan hums just now. In their eyes, this kind of music that does not follow the rhythm of the music is just village slang.
