第百零九回　候芳魂五兒承錯愛　還孽債迎女返真元 Wu'er Receives Misplaced Love; Repaying Her Karmic Debt, Yingchun Returns to the Truth

，，，：“，，，。It is told that Baochai had Xiren find out what had happened. Fearing that Baoyu might grieve himself ill, she casually brought up Daiyu’s dying words to Xiren, saying, “While people live in this world, they have thoughts and feelings; but after death, each goes their own way—it is not as though a person remains after death just as they were in life.，。Though the living may cling to their foolish devotion, the dead know nothing of it.，，。Besides, since Miss Lin said she was departing for the immortal realm, she must regard mortals as foul, unworthy creatures; why would she still consent to linger among them?，。”，。It is only people’s own suspicions that draw evil spirits and uncanny influences to trouble them.” Though Baochai was speaking to Xiren, she had really meant Baoyu to hear.，“。Xiren understood her meaning and said, “There is no such thing.，，。”，：“。If Miss Lin’s spirit were still in the Garden, and considering how well we treated her, how is it that she has never once appeared in our dreams?” Hearing this from the outer room, Baoyu pondered carefully: “It really is strange.，，。I know that Cousin Lin is dead, and not a day passes when I do not think of her several times; yet why have I never dreamed of her?，，。She must have gone up to heaven, and, seeing that a common mortal like me cannot commune with divine beings, has not granted me even a single dream.，，，。If I sleep here in the outer room, perhaps when I return from the Garden she will recognize my sincere heart and consent to meet me in a dream.，。I must ask her where she has truly gone, so that I may make offerings to her often.，，。”，：“，。”，：“。But if she really despises this foul creature and will not grant me a single dream, then I shall think of her no more.” His mind made up, he said, “I shall sleep in the outer room tonight. None of you need trouble over me.” Baochai did not insist, but merely said, “Do not indulge in wild fancies.，。You saw yourself how anxious Mother became when you went into the Garden—she could hardly speak.，，。”：“，。If she learns that you still will not take care of yourself, and if the Old Lady should hear of it too, she will say again that we have been neglectful.” Baoyu said, “There is no use saying all that. I shall sit here awhile and then come in.，。”，：“，。”，。You are tired too; go to sleep first.” Knowing that he was sure to come in, Baochai pretended indifference and said, “I am going to sleep. Let Miss Xiren attend to you.” This suited Baoyu perfectly.，，。Once Baochai had gone to bed, he had Xiren and Sheyue lay out another set of bedding, repeatedly sending someone in to see whether Second Mistress was asleep.，。Baochai deliberately pretended to sleep, though she too passed a restless night.，：“，。When Baoyu believed that Baochai was asleep, he said to Xiren, “You may all go to bed. I am not grieving.，，。”，，，，，，。If you do not believe me, stay and attend me until I am asleep, then go inside; only take care not to wake me.” Xiren duly helped him settle down, set tea and water ready, secured the door, and went into the inner room to look after things for a while. They all lay down feigning sleep, prepared to come out again if Baoyu stirred.，，，，，。When Baoyu saw that Xiren and the others had gone inside, he sent the two old women keeping night watch outdoors, quietly sat up, murmured a few prayers, and then lay down, hoping to commune with the spirit.，，。At first he could not fall asleep, but later, after stilling his mind, he drifted off.，。Little did he know that he would sleep soundly all night, until daybreak.，，，：“‘，’。”，，：“，，。”，，，：“，。”：“。”，，。Baoyu awoke, rubbed his eyes, sat up, and reflected for a while. Finding that he had had no dream at all, he sighed and said, “Truly, ‘Long years have passed since life and death divided us; never once has her spirit entered my dreams.’” Baochai, however, had not slept all night. Hearing Baoyu recite those lines outside, she immediately replied, “You have spoken rashly again. If Cousin Lin were still here, she would be angry with you.” Baoyu felt embarrassed when he heard this. He could only rise and make conversation as he went into the inner room, saying, “I meant to come in, but before I knew it I nodded off.” Baochai said, “What does it matter to me whether you come in or not?” Xiren and the others had not really been asleep, and, seeing the two of them talking, hurriedly poured tea.，：“？Just then a young maid sent by the Old Lady arrived and asked, “Did Second Master Bao sleep peacefully last night?，。”：“，，。”。If he did, he and Second Mistress are to wash and dress early and come over.” Xiren said, “Go and tell the Old Lady that Baoyu slept very well last night and will come over shortly.” The young maid left.

话说宝钗叫袭人问出原故，恐宝玉悲伤成疾，便将黛玉临死的话与袭人假作闲谈，说是：“人生在世，有意有情，到了死后各自干各自的去了，并不是生前那样个人死后还是这样。活人虽有痴心，死的竟不知道。况且林姑娘既说仙去，他看凡人是个不堪的浊物，那里还肯混在世上。只是人自己疑心，所以招些邪魔外祟来缠扰了。”宝钗虽是与袭人说话，原说给宝玉听的。袭人会意，也说是“没有的事。若说林姑娘的魂灵儿还在园里，我们也算好的，怎么不曾梦见了一次。”宝玉在外闻听得，细细的想道：“果然也奇。我知道林妹妹死了，那一日不想几遍，怎么从没梦过。想是他到天上去了，瞧我这凡夫俗子不能交通神明，所以梦都没有一个儿。我就在外间睡著，或者我从园里回来，他知道我的实心，肯与我梦里一见。我必要问他实在那里去了，我也时常祭奠。若是果然不理我这浊物，竟无一梦，我便不想他了。”主意已定，便说：“我今夜就在外间睡了，你们也不用管我。”宝钗也不强他，只说：“你不要胡思乱想。你不瞧瞧，太太因你园里去了急得话都说不出来。若是知道还不保养身子，倘或老太太知道了，又说我们不用心。”宝玉道：“白这么说罢咧，我坐一会子就进来。你也乏了，先睡罢。”宝钗知他必进来的，假意说道：“我睡了，叫袭姑娘伺候你罢。”宝玉听了，正合机宜。候宝钗睡了，他便叫袭人麝月另铺设下一副被褥，常叫人进来瞧二奶奶睡著了没有。宝钗故意装睡，也是一夜不宁。那宝玉知是宝钗睡著，便与袭人道：“你们各自睡罢，我又不伤感。你若不信，你就伏侍我睡了再进去，只要不惊动我就是了。”袭人果然伏侍他睡下，便预备下了茶水，关好了门，进里间去照应一回，各自假寐，宝玉若有动静，再为出来。宝玉见袭人等进来，便将坐更的两个婆子支到外头，他轻轻的坐起来，暗暗的祝了几句，便睡下了，欲与神交。起初再睡不著，以后把心一静，便睡去了。岂知一夜安眠，直到天亮。宝玉醒来，拭眼坐起来想了一回，并无有梦，便叹口气道：“正是‘悠悠生死别经年，魂魄不曾来入梦’。”宝钗却一夜反没有睡著，听宝玉在外边念这两句，便接口道：“这句又说莽撞了，如若林妹妹在时，又该生气了。”宝玉听了，反不好意思，只得起来搭讪著往里间走来，说：“我原要进来的，不觉得一个盹儿就打著了。”宝钗道：“你进来不进来与我什么相干。”袭人等本没有睡，眼见他们两个说话，即忙倒上茶来。已见老太太那边打发小丫头来，问：“宝二爷昨睡得安顿么？若安顿时，早早的同二奶奶梳洗了就过去。”袭人便说：“你去回老太太，说宝玉昨夜很安顿，回来就过来。”小丫头去了。

，，，，。Baochai rose and dressed, then went first to pay her respects to Grandmother Jia, followed by Ying’er, Xiren, and the others.

Nothing was wrong.” Everyone was reassured, and they chatted for a while.：“。Presently a young maid came in and said, “Second Young Mistress is about to return home.，，。I heard that people from Young Master Sun’s household came to tell the Elder Mistress something. The Elder Mistress then sent word to Fourth Miss’s quarters that there was no need to keep her and that she should be allowed to go.，。”，，：“，，。Second Young Mistress is now weeping in the Elder Mistress’s rooms. She will probably come shortly to take leave of the Old Lady.” Hearing this, Grandmother Jia and the others felt deeply distressed. They all said, “Why should a person like Second Miss be fated to meet such a man, never to hold her head up all her life?！”，，，，，。What is to be done?” As they spoke, Yingchun entered, her face covered in tear stains. Since it was Baochai’s happy occasion, she could only hold back her tears as she took leave of everyone and prepared to return.，，：“。Grandmother Jia knew her suffering and could not very well force her to stay, so she merely said, “You had better go back, then.，，。But do not grieve. Once one has met a man like that, there is nothing to be done.。”：“，。In a few days I shall send someone to fetch you again.” Yingchun said, “The Old Lady has always loved me, but now even your love can no longer help me.。”，。I fear that, poor creature that I am, there will be no next time for me to return.” As she spoke, tears streamed down her face.：“？Everyone consoled her, saying, “Why should you be unable to come back?，，。”，，，：“，，，。”：“。”，。It is not as with your Third Sister, who is so far away that even seeing her is difficult.” At the thought of Tanchun, Grandmother Jia and the others all began to weep; but because it was Baochai’s birthday, they quickly turned sorrow into cheer and said, “Even that need not be difficult. Once the coastal regions are peaceful and her husband’s family is transferred to the capital, we shall see her again.” Everyone agreed, “That is exactly so.” Yingchun could only take her leave, suppressing her grief.，。Everyone escorted her out, then returned to Grandmother Jia’s rooms.，。From morning until evening, they made merry for another whole day.

，，“，，，。”，：“，，。Now, when Baoyu returned to his room that evening, he reflected that Daiyu had not entered his dream the night before. “Perhaps she has already become an immortal and is therefore unwilling to see a foul creature like me. Or perhaps I was simply too impatient; that too is possible.” He then formed a plan and said to Baochai, “Last night I happened to fall asleep in the outer room, and I seemed to sleep more peacefully there than inside. When I rose today, my mind also felt calmer.，。”，。I would like to sleep in the outer room for another two nights, but I fear you will try to stop me again.” Hearing this, Baochai understood perfectly well that the verses he had recited that morning concerned Daiyu.，，，，：“，，！She thought that his foolish nature could not be reasoned with, and it might be best to let him sleep there for two nights until he gave up hope of his own accord. Besides, he had slept quite peacefully the night before. So she said, “What a groundless worry! Go and sleep there if you wish—why should we stop you?，。”：“！”：“，，。”，。Only do not indulge in wild fancies and summon evil spirits and uncanny influences.” Baoyu laughed. “Who is imagining anything?” Xiren said, “If Second Master will take my advice, you had better sleep inside. If no one can attend you promptly outside, it would be bad if you caught a chill.” Before Baoyu could reply, Baochai gave Xiren a meaningful glance.，：“，，。”：“，。”，，。Xiren understood and said, “Very well, then; let someone stay with you, to pour tea or water during the night.” Baoyu laughed and said, “In that case, you come with me.” Xiren was quite disconcerted to hear this; her face instantly flushed crimson, and she said not a word.，：“，。Baochai had always known Xiren to be steady, so she said, “She is accustomed to attending me; let her remain with me.。Sheyue and Wu’er can look after you.，。”。Besides, she has followed me about through a busy day and is tired. She ought to be allowed to rest.” Baoyu could only smile and go outside.，，。Baochai then ordered Sheyue and Wu’er to lay out Baoyu’s bedding in the outer room as before, and warned them to sleep lightly and remain alert in case he wanted tea or water.

，，，，，，。But the more Baoyu tried to sleep, the more wakeful he became. Seeing the two girls making up their beds, he suddenly remembered the year when Xiren was away from home and Qingwen and Sheyue had attended him. That night Sheyue had gone out, and Qingwen, meaning to frighten her, had caught cold because she wore too little; in the end it was from that illness that she died.，。At this thought, his whole heart turned to Qingwen.，。Then he suddenly recalled Fengjie saying that Wu’er was the very image of Qingwen, and so transferred to Wu’er all the feelings with which he had been thinking of Qingwen.，，，。He pretended to be asleep and secretly watched Wu’er. The more he looked, the more she resembled Qingwen, and before he knew it his foolish obsession had returned.，，。He listened and heard no sound from the inner room, so he knew that those inside were asleep.，，。Seeing that Sheyue too had fallen asleep, he deliberately called her twice, but she did not answer.，：“？”：“。”，，，。Hearing Baoyu call someone, Wu’er asked, “What does Second Master want?” Baoyu said, “I want to rinse my mouth.” Seeing that Sheyue was asleep, Wu’er had no choice but to rise, trim the candlewick afresh, pour a cup of tea, and bring it over while holding the rinsing bowl in her other hand.，，。Because she had risen in haste, she wore only a peach-red satin jacket, and her hair was loosely gathered into a bun.，。When Baoyu looked at her, it was as though Qingwen had truly come back to life.“，”，，。He suddenly recalled Qingwen’s words, “Had I known I was to bear the empty name, I might as well have acted on it in earnest.” He stared at Wu’er in a daze and forgot even to take the tea.

，。Ever since Fangguan’s departure, Wu’er herself had lost all desire to enter the household.，。Later, when she heard that Fengjie wanted her to come in and attend Baoyu, her eagerness to do so was even greater than Baoyu’s longing for her arrival.，，，，，：，。But after she came, she found Baochai and Xiren dignified and composed, and sincerely revered and admired them. She also saw that Baoyu was wild and foolish, no longer possessing his former charm, and heard that Lady Wang had expelled the girls for joking and playing with him. She therefore put the matter out of her mind and no longer harbored the least romantic feeling.，。Unfortunately, that foolish young master mistook her for Qingwen tonight and began lavishing affection upon her.，，：“。”，，：“？”，：“，。”：“，？”。Wu’er’s cheeks had long since flushed crimson with embarrassment, but she dared not speak loudly. She could only say softly, “Second Master, rinse your mouth.” Baoyu smiled and took the tea, though he scarcely knew whether he had rinsed or not, then asked with a broad grin, “You and Sister Qingwen were very good friends, weren’t you?” Wu’er could make neither head nor tail of this and replied, “We were all sisters; there was nothing unfriendly between us.” Baoyu then whispered, “When Qingwen was gravely ill and I went to see her, did you not go too?” Wu’er smiled faintly and nodded.：“？”：“。”，。Baoyu said, “Did you hear what she said?” Wu’er shook her head. “No.” Baoyu had by now lost all sense of himself and seized Wu’er by the hand.，，：“，。”，：“，‘，。’？”，，：“，。”：“！Wu’er’s face reddened with alarm and her heart pounded wildly. She whispered, “If Second Master has something to say, just say it; do not pull and paw at me.” Only then did Baoyu release her hand and say, “She said to me, ‘Had I known I was to bear the empty name, I might as well have acted on it in earnest.’ How could you not have heard?” Wu’er took this plainly as an attempt to make advances to her. Not daring to protest outright, she said, “That was shameless of her. Are such words fit for girls like us to say?” Baoyu cried anxiously, “How can you be another such moralizing pedant!，，！”，：“，，，。I only told you because you look exactly like her; yet you use such words to insult her!” Wu’er could not tell what Baoyu meant, so she said, “It is late. Second Master should sleep; do not sit up any longer, or you may catch cold.？”：“。”，，，：“！”：“，。What did Mistress and Sister Xiren tell you just now?” Baoyu said, “I am not cold.” Then he suddenly remembered that Wu’er had come without her outer clothes and feared that she too might catch cold like Qingwen. He said, “Why did you come over without putting on your clothes?” Wu’er replied, “You called so urgently—how was I to find time to dress fully?，。”，，。Had I known we were going to talk this long, I would have put them on.” Hearing this, Baoyu hurriedly lifted the moon-white satin padded jacket covering him, handed it to Wu’er, and told her to drape it over herself.，：“，。Wu’er refused to take it, saying, “Keep yourself covered, Second Master. I am not cold.。”，，。If I am cold, I have clothes of my own.” So saying, she returned to her bedding and drew on a long jacket.，，：“？”：“，，。”，，：“？”：“，。She listened again and, hearing Sheyue sleeping soundly, slowly came back and said, “Was Second Master not going to rest and restore his spirits tonight?” Baoyu laughed. “To tell you the truth, I was not trying to restore my spirits at all; I meant to meet an immortal.” Wu’er grew even more suspicious and asked, “What immortal?” Baoyu replied, “If you wish to know, it is a long story.，。”：“，。”：“。Come sit beside me, and I shall tell you.” Wu’er blushed and laughed. “You are lying there—how am I to sit beside you?” Baoyu said, “What does that matter?，，，。One cold night years ago, your Sister Sheyue and Sister Qingwen were playing about. I feared Qingwen might freeze, so I even pulled her under my quilt and warmed her there.！What was wrong with that?。”，。Above all, people should not affect prudery and false propriety.” Every word sounded to Wu’er like an attempt at seduction.。Little did she know that the foolish young master was speaking with perfect sincerity.，，，，：“，。Wu’er could neither walk away, remain standing, nor sit down, and was at a complete loss. Smiling faintly, she said, “Stop talking nonsense. What would people think if they heard you?，，。No wonder people say you devote all your efforts to girls. You have Second Mistress and Sister Xiren right here, both like immortals, yet you insist on pestering other people.，，。”，，。If you say such things again tomorrow, I shall report you to Second Mistress, and then let us see how you can face anyone.” While she was speaking, there came a sudden thud outside, startling them both.。From the inner room came a cough from Baochai.，。Hearing it, Baoyu hastily pursed his lips to signal silence.。Wu’er hurriedly extinguished the lamp and quietly lay down.，，，。In fact, Baochai and Xiren had lost sleep the previous night and had been tired out by the day’s exertions, so they had fallen asleep without hearing any of the conversation.，，，。The noise in the courtyard now startled them awake, but when they listened, they heard no further sound.，：“，？”，，，。Lying in bed, Baoyu wondered, “Can Cousin Lin have come and deliberately frightened us because she heard me talking with Wu’er?” Tossing and turning amid wild fancies, he did not fall into a fitful sleep until after the fifth watch.

那五儿自从芳官去后，也无心进来了。后来听见凤姐叫他进来伏侍宝玉，竟比宝玉盼他进来的心还急。不想进来以后，见宝钗袭人一般尊贵稳重，看著心里实在敬慕，又见宝玉疯疯傻傻，不似先前风致，又听见王夫人为女孩子们和宝玉顽笑都撵了：所以把这件事搁在心上，倒无一毫的儿女私情了。怎奈这位呆爷今晚把他当作晴雯，只管爱惜起来。那五儿早已羞得两颊红潮，又不敢大声说话，只得轻轻的说道：“二爷漱口啊。”宝玉笑著接了茶在手中，也不知道漱了没有，便笑嘻嘻的问道：“你和晴雯姐姐好不是啊？”五儿听了摸不著头脑，便道：“都是姐妹，也没有什么不好的。”宝玉又悄悄的问道：“晴雯病重了我看他去，不是你也去了么？”五儿微微笑著点头儿。宝玉道：“你听见他说什么了没有？”五儿摇著头儿道：“没有。”宝玉已经忘神，便把五儿的手一拉。五儿急得红了脸，心里乱跳，便悄悄说道：“二爷有什么话只管说，别拉拉扯扯的。”宝玉才放了手，说道：“他和我说来著，‘早知担了个虚名，也就打正经主意了。’你怎么没听见么？”五儿听了这话明明是轻薄自己的意思，又不敢怎么样，便说道：“那是他自己没脸，这也是我们女孩儿家说得的吗。”宝玉著急道：“你怎么也是这么个道学先生！我看你长的和他一模一样，我才肯和你说这个话，你怎么倒拿这些话来糟踏他！”此时五儿心中也不知宝玉是怎么个意思，便说道：“夜深了，二爷也睡罢，别紧著坐著，看凉著。刚才奶奶和袭人姐姐怎么嘱咐了？”宝玉道：“我不凉。”说到这里，忽然想起五儿没穿著大衣服，就怕他也象晴雯著了凉，便说道：“你为什么不穿上衣服就过来！”五儿道：“爷叫的紧，那里有尽著穿衣裳的空儿。要知道说这半天话儿时，我也穿上了。”宝玉听了，连忙把自己盖的一件月白绫子绵袄儿揭起来递给五儿，叫他披上。五儿只不肯接，说：“二爷盖著罢，我不凉。我凉我有我的衣裳。”说著，回到自己铺边，拉了一件长袄披上。又听了听，麝月睡的正浓，才慢慢过来说：“二爷今晚不是要养神呢吗？”宝玉笑道：“实告诉你罢，什么是养神，我倒是要遇仙的意思。”五儿听了，越发动了疑心，便问道：“遇什么仙？”宝玉道：“你要知道，这话长著呢。你挨著我来坐下，我告诉你。”五儿红了脸笑道：“你在那里躺著，我怎么坐呢。”宝玉道：“这个何妨。那一年冷天，也是你麝月姐姐和你晴雯姐姐顽，我怕冻著他，还把他揽在被里渥著呢。这有什么的！大凡一个人总不要酸文假醋才好。”五儿听了，句句都是宝玉调戏之意。那知这位呆爷却是实心实意的话儿。五儿此时走开不好，站著不好，坐下不好，倒没了主意了，因微微的笑著道：“你别混说了，看人家听见这是什么意思。怨不得人家说你专在女孩儿身上用工夫，你自己放著二奶奶和袭人姐姐都是仙人儿似的，只爱和别人胡缠。明儿再说这些话，我回了二奶奶，看你什么脸见人。”正说著，只听外面咕咚一声，把两个人吓了一跳。里间宝钗咳嗽了一声。宝玉听见，连忙呶嘴儿。五儿也就忙忙的息了灯悄悄的躺下了。原来宝钗袭人因昨夜不曾睡，又兼日间劳乏了一天，所以睡去，都不曾听见他们说话。此时院中一响，早已惊醒，听了听，也无动静。宝玉此时躺在床上，心里疑惑：“莫非林妹妹来了，听见我和五儿说话故意吓我们的？”翻来覆去，胡思乱想，五更以后，才朦胧睡去。

，，，，，。As for Wu’er, after Baoyu had pestered her for half the night, and after hearing Baochai cough, she had a guilty conscience and was terrified that Baochai might have overheard. Turning the matter over and over in her mind, she remained sleepless all night.，，。When she rose early the next morning and saw Baoyu still sleeping heavily, she quietly tidied the room.，：“，？”，，。By then Sheyue was awake and said, “Why are you up so early? Surely you did not stay awake all night?” To Wu’er, these words made it sound as if Sheyue knew what had happened; she merely smiled awkwardly and made no reply.，，，：“？”，，，，，。Before long, Baochai and Xiren also rose. Opening the door and seeing Baoyu still asleep, they were puzzled: “How is it that he has slept so soundly out here for two nights?” When Baoyu awoke and found everyone already up, he hastily scrambled out of bed, rubbing his eyes. Thinking carefully, he realized that he had again failed to dream of Daiyu: surely the paths of immortals and mortals were divided.，，，。He slowly got out of bed, then remembered Wu’er’s remark the night before that Baochai and Xiren were both like heavenly immortals. It was true enough, he thought, and he stood staring blankly at Baochai.，，，，：“？”，，：“！”，，，。Seeing him in a daze, Baochai knew it concerned Daiyu, though she could not tell whether he had dreamed of her or not. But his staring made her self-conscious, and she said, “Did Second Master truly meet an immortal last night?” Hearing this, Baoyu assumed that Baochai had overheard the previous night’s conversation. He forced a smile and said, “Whatever do you mean?” At this, Wu’er felt guiltier still. Unable to say anything, she could only watch Baochai’s expression.：“？”，，。Baochai then smiled and asked Wu’er, “Did you hear Second Master talking to anyone in his sleep?” Hearing this, Baoyu could no longer sit still and slipped away on the pretense of doing something.，：“，。Wu’er’s face flushed crimson, and she could only answer evasively, “He did say a few things during the first half of the night, but I could not hear them clearly.‘’，‘’，，，，。”：“。Something about ‘bearing an empty name,’ and something about ‘not acting on it in earnest.’ I did not understand. I persuaded Second Master to sleep, and later I fell asleep too, so I do not know whether he said anything more.” Baochai lowered her head and thought, “Those words were plainly about Daiyu.，。But if we keep letting him sleep outside, I fear his thoughts may wander and summon some flower spirit or moon goddess.，，。”，，。Besides, the root of his old illness has always been his excessive feeling for girls. We must find some way to divert his affections; only then can trouble be avoided.” At this thought, she could not help flushing hotly, and went awkwardly into her room to wash and dress.

，，。That evening, Baoyu returned to his room and found that Baochai had only just come back after bidding good night to Grandmother Jia and Lady Wang.，。Remembering what had happened that morning, Baoyu could not help feeling ashamed and abashed.，，：“，，。”，：“？”，：“。”，。Seeing him so, Baochai understood that he felt awkward. She thought, “He is a man ruled by foolish passion; to cure this illness, I shall have to treat passion with passion.” After pondering awhile, she asked Baoyu, “You will be sleeping in the outer room again tonight, I suppose?” Feeling foolish, Baoyu replied, “The inner room and the outer room are all the same.” Baochai meant to say more, but instead felt embarrassed.：“，。Xiren said, “Oh, enough—what sense is there in this?！”，：“，，，，。”：“，？I do not believe he slept so soundly!” Hearing this, Wu’er hurriedly broke in: “There is nothing else wrong with Second Master sleeping outside, except that he likes to talk in his dreams. What he says makes no sense, yet one does not dare contradict him.” Xiren said, “Tonight I shall move my bedding beside his bed and see whether he talks in his sleep or not.。”，。You need only lay Second Master’s bedding in the inner room, and that will settle it.” Baochai heard this but said nothing.，，。Baoyu was too ashamed to object, much less argue stubbornly, so he submitted and had his bedding moved back into the inner room.，，，，，。First, Baoyu felt guilty and wished to comfort Baochai; second, Baochai feared that brooding might make Baoyu ill, and thought it better to humor him with kind words and looks, so that he might feel somewhat closer to her—her plan of substituting one flower for another.。That very evening, Xiren duly moved out.，，，，，。Thus, with Baoyu remorseful at heart and Baochai seeking to win his affection, for the first time since she had entered the household they were like fish finding water, entwined in tender love—the subtle essences of two and five, as the saying goes, joining and congealing into one.。But that belongs later in our story.

，。The next morning Baoyu and Baochai rose together; after washing and dressing, Baoyu first went over to Grandmother Jia's quarters.，，，，，，。Grandmother Jia, who doted on Baoyu and was also thinking how filial Baochai was, suddenly remembered something and told Yuanyang to open a chest and take out an ancient Han jade ring left by their ancestors; though it could not compare with Baoyu's own piece of jade, it was still a rarity to wear upon one's person.，：“，，，。Yuanyang found it and handed it to Grandmother Jia, saying, “I do not think I have ever seen this before, yet after all these years you remembered so clearly, saying it was kept in a certain casket in that particular chest; I followed your directions and found it at once.？”：“，，，。What made you think of taking it out, and what do you mean to do with it?” Grandmother Jia replied, “What would you know of it? My great-grandfather gave this jade to our old master, and because the old master was fond of me, just before I married he called me to him and placed it in my hands himself.：‘，，。’，，。He also said, ‘This jade was worn in Han times and is very precious; keep it, and it will be as though you were seeing me.’ I was still young then and thought little of it when I received it, so I tossed it into a chest.，，，，。After I came here, I saw that our family possessed so many things that this seemed nothing at all; I never wore it, and there it has lain for more than sixty years.，，，。”，：“，。”，。Today, seeing how filial Baoyu is, and remembering that he has lost a piece of jade, I thought I would take this out and give it to him, just as my ancestor once gave it to me.” Presently Baoyu came to pay his respects, and Grandmother Jia said delightedly, “Come here; I have something to show you.” Baoyu went to her bedside, and she handed him the Han jade.，，，，。Baoyu took it and examined it: it was about three inches across, shaped like a sweet melon, delicately fashioned and tinged with red.。Baoyu praised it again and again.：“？Grandmother Jia asked, “Do you like it?，。”，。My great-grandfather gave it to me, and now I shall pass it on to you.” Smiling, Baoyu made a respectful bow of thanks, then took it away to show his mother.：“，。Grandmother Jia said, “If your mother sees it, she will tell your father, and he will say again that I care more for my grandson than for my son.。”。Neither of them has ever seen it.” Baoyu went off laughing.，。Baochai and the others stayed to exchange a few more words, then took their leave as well.，，，。From then on, Grandmother Jia went two days without food or drink; her chest still felt oppressed and congested, and she suffered dizziness, blurred vision, and coughing.，，，。Lady Xing, Lady Wang, Xifeng, and the others came to pay their respects and, finding Grandmother Jia still in fairly good spirits, merely had word sent to Jia Zheng, who came at once to inquire after her.，。On leaving her room, Jia Zheng immediately sent for a physician to take her pulse.，，，，。Before long the physician arrived, examined her pulse, and said that, being advanced in years, she had suffered some indigestion and caught a slight chill; a little medicine to aid digestion and dispel the cold would soon put her right.，，，。He wrote a prescription, and Jia Zheng, seeing that it contained only ordinary medicines, ordered it to be decocted and administered.，，。Thereafter Jia Zheng came morning and evening to inquire after her, but for three days running she showed not the slightest improvement.：“，。Jia Zheng then ordered Jia Lian, “Find out who the good physicians are, and quickly bring one to treat the old lady.，，。”，：“，，。”：“，。The several physicians our family usually employs do not strike me as particularly good, which is why I am sending you.” Jia Lian thought for a moment and said, “I remember when Cousin Baoyu was ill that year, we brought in a man who did not practice medicine professionally, and he cured him; perhaps we should find him now.” Jia Zheng said, “Medicine is an exceedingly difficult art; physicians who are out of fashion sometimes possess real skill.。”，：“，。Send someone to find him, then.” Jia Lian hastened to comply, but returned saying, “Physician Liu recently left the city to teach and comes back only once every ten days or so.，，。”，。We cannot wait for him now, so I have invited another physician, who will soon be here.” Hearing this, Jia Zheng could only wait.。We shall say no more of this.

且说次日宝玉宝钗同起，宝玉梳洗了先过贾母这边来。这里贾母因疼宝玉，又想宝钗孝顺，忽然想起一件东西，便叫鸳鸯开了箱子，取出祖上所遗一个汉玉玦，虽不及宝玉他那块玉石，挂在身上却也稀罕。鸳鸯找出来递与贾母，便说道：“这件东西我好象从没见的，老太太这些年还记得这样清楚，说是那一箱什么匣子里装著，我按著老太太的话一拿就拿出来了。老太太怎么想著拿出来做什么？”贾母道：“你那里知道，这块玉还是祖爷爷给我们老太爷，老太爷疼我，临出嫁的时候叫了我去亲手递给我的。还说：‘这玉是汉时所佩的东西，很贵重，你拿著就象见了我的一样。’我那时还小，拿了来也不当什么，便撩在箱子里。到了这里，我见咱们家的东西也多，这算得什么，从没带过，一撩便撩了六十多年。今儿见宝玉这样孝顺，他又丢了一块玉，故此想著拿出来给他，也象是祖上给我的意思。”一时宝玉请了安，贾母便喜欢道：“你过来，我给你一件东西瞧瞧。”宝玉走到床前，贾母便把那块汉玉递给宝玉。宝玉接来一瞧，那玉有三寸方圆，形似甜瓜，色有红晕，甚是精致。宝玉口口称赞。贾母道：“你爱么？这是我祖爷爷给我的，我传了你罢。”宝玉笑著请了个安谢了，又拿了要送给他母亲瞧。贾母道：“你太太瞧了告诉你老子，又说疼儿子不如疼孙子了。他们从没见过。”宝玉笑著去了。宝钗等又说了几句话，也辞了出来。自此贾母两日不进饮食，胸口仍是结闷，觉得头晕目眩，咳嗽。邢王二夫人凤姐等请安，见贾母精神尚好，不过叫人告诉贾政，立刻来请了安。贾政出来，即请大夫看脉。不多一时，大夫来诊了脉，说是有年纪的人停了些饮食，感冒些风寒，略消导发散些就好了。开了方子，贾政看了，知是寻常药品，命人煎好进服。以后贾政早晚进来请安，一连三日，不见稍减。贾政又命贾琏：“打听好大夫，快去请来瞧老太太的病。咱们家常请的几个大夫，我瞧著不怎么好，所以叫你去。”贾琏想了一想，说道：“记得那年宝兄弟病的时候，倒是请了一个不行医的来瞧好了的，如今不如找他。”贾政道：“医道却是极难的，愈是不兴时的大夫倒有本领。你就打发人去找来罢。”贾琏即忙答应去了，回来说道：“这刘大夫新近出城教书去了，过十来天进城一次。这时等不得，又请了一位，也就来了。”贾政听了，只得等著。不题。

，。Now while Grandmother Jia was ill, not a day passed without all the women of the household coming to inquire after her.，，，：“，。”：“，，。”。One day, while everyone was gathered there, an old woman who guarded the side gate into the garden came in and reported, “Reverend Miaoyu of the Green Lattice Nunnery in the garden has heard that the old lady is ill and has come especially to pay her respects.” The others said, “She seldom comes over; since she has made a special visit today, invite her in at once.” Xifeng went to Grandmother Jia's bedside to announce her.，。Xiuyan, being an old acquaintance of Miaoyu's, went out first to meet her.，，，，，，，。Miaoyu came floating gracefully toward them, her hair dressed in the Miaochang style, wearing an unadorned moon-white silk jacket beneath a long patchwork blue-satin vest with bordered edges, a tawny-green silk cord at her waist, and below it a white damask skirt patterned like a pale ink painting; in her hand she carried a fly whisk and prayer beads, and a young attendant followed behind.，“，。Xiuyan greeted her and said, “Since you live in the garden, you might come and see me more often.，。Lately, because there are so few people in the garden, it is not easy for me to venture out alone.，。Besides, our side gate here is usually locked, so I have not been able to see you all these days.。”：“，，。How fortunate to meet you today.” Miaoyu replied, “In the past yours was a bustling, worldly household; though you lived in the outer garden, it was not convenient for me to visit you often or grow too familiar.，，，。Now I know that affairs here are not going very well, and I have heard that the old lady is ill; I was also thinking of you and wanted to see Miss Bao.，，。”：“。”，。Why should I care whether your gate is locked? If I wish to come, I come; if I do not, you could not make me come even if you wanted me to.” Xiuyan laughed and said, “You still have that same temperament.” As they spoke, they had already reached Grandmother Jia's room.。Everyone greeted her when they saw her.，。Miaoyu went to Grandmother Jia's bedside, asked after her health, and exchanged a few conventional courtesies.：“，？”：“，。Grandmother Jia said, “You are a living Guanyin; tell me, can my illness be cured or not?” Miaoyu replied, “A benevolent person like you still has many years of life allotted to her.，。This is only a passing chill; after a few doses of medicine, I expect you will recover.。”：“，。At your age, the main thing is to keep your mind at ease.” Grandmother Jia said, “These things do not trouble me; I am someone who dearly loves seeking pleasure.，，。The illness itself does not feel very serious, except that my chest and diaphragm feel oppressed and full; just now the physician said it was caused by anger and vexation.，，。You know as well as anyone—who would dare provoke me? Does that not show how mediocre his understanding of the pulse is?，，。”，，。I have told Lian that the first physician was right in calling it a chill with indigestion; we shall invite him again tomorrow.” Then she told Yuanyang to have the kitchen prepare a table of strictly vegetarian dishes and asked Miaoyu to stay for a simple meal.：“，。”：“，。”：“，。”，，：“？Miaoyu said, “I have already eaten my midday meal; I do not take food at this hour.” Lady Wang said, “Never mind if you do not eat; let us sit awhile longer and chat.” Miaoyu said, “I have not seen you for a long time, so I came to visit today.” After talking a while longer, she rose to leave; turning, she saw Xichun standing there and asked, “Fourth Miss, why have you grown so thin?。”：“。Do not exhaust your mind by painting all the time.” Xichun replied, “I have not painted for a long while.，。”：“？”：“。The rooms where I live now are not as bright as those in the garden, so I have no inclination to paint.” Miaoyu asked, “Which apartments are you living in now?” Xichun replied, “The rooms just east of the gate through which you entered.。”：“。”，，。It is very close if you wish to visit.” Miaoyu said, “I shall come and see you when the mood takes me.” Xichun and the others escorted her out, and on returning heard the maids report that a physician was with Grandmother Jia.。For the time being, everyone dispersed.

且说贾母病时，合宅女眷无日不来请安。一日，众人都在那里，只见看园内腰门的老婆子进来，回说：“园里的栊翠庵的妙师父知道老太太病了，特来请安。”众人道：“他不常过来，今儿特地来，你们快请进来。”凤姐走到床前回贾母。岫烟是妙玉的旧相识，先走出去接他。只见妙玉头带妙常髻，身上穿一件月白素绸袄儿，外罩一件水田青缎镶边长背心，拴著秋香色的丝绦，腰下系一条淡墨画的白绫裙，手执麈尾念珠，跟著一个侍儿，飘飘拽拽的走来。岫烟见了问好，说是“在园内住的日子，可以常常来瞧瞧你。近来因为园内人少，一个人轻易难出来。况且咱们这里的腰门常关著，所以这些日子不得见你。今儿幸会。”妙玉道：“头里你们是热闹场中，你们虽在外园里住，我也不便常来亲近。如今知道这里的事情也不大好，又听说是老太太病著，又掂记你，并要瞧瞧宝姑娘。我那管你们的关不关，我要来就来，我不来你们要我来也不能啊。”岫烟笑道：“你还是那种脾气。”一面说著，已到贾母房中。众人见了都问了好。妙玉走到贾母床前问候，说了几句套话。贾母便道：“你是个女菩萨，你瞧瞧我的病可好得了好不了？”妙玉道：“老太太这样慈善的人，寿数正有呢。一时感冒，吃几贴药想来也就好了。有年纪人只要宽心些。”贾母道：“我倒不为这些，我是极爱寻快乐的。如今这病也不觉怎样，只是胸隔闷饱，刚才大夫说是气恼所致。你是知道的，谁敢给我气受，这不是那大夫脉理平常么。我和琏儿说了，还是头一个大夫说感冒伤食的是，明儿仍请他来。”说著，叫鸳鸯吩咐厨房里办一桌净素菜来，请他在这里便饭。妙玉道：“我已吃过午饭了，我是不吃东西的。”王夫人道：“不吃也罢，咱们多坐一会说些闲话儿罢。”妙玉道：“我久已不见你们，今儿来瞧瞧。”又说了一回话便要走，回头见惜春站著，便问道：“四姑娘为什么这样瘦？不要只管爱画劳了心。”惜春道：“我久不画了。如今住的房屋不比园里的显亮，所以没兴画。”妙玉道：“你如今住在那一所了？”惜春道：“就是你才进来的那个门东边的屋子。你要来很近。”妙玉道：“我高兴的时候来瞧你。”惜春等说著送了出去，回身过来，听见丫头们回说大夫在贾母那边呢。众人暂且散去。

，，。But Grandmother Jia's illness grew worse with each passing day; medical consultations and treatment proved fruitless, and later diarrhea set in as well.，，，。Jia Zheng grew anxious and, realizing how difficult the illness was to treat, sent someone to his office to request leave, while he and Lady Wang personally attended to her medicines day and night.，，。One day, seeing Grandmother Jia take a little food, he felt somewhat relieved.，，。Just then an old woman poked her head in through the doorway; Lady Wang told Caiyun to go and see who it was.，：“？”：“，，，。”：“？Caiyun saw that it was one of the servants who had accompanied Yingchun to the Sun household and asked, “What have you come for?” The woman replied, “I have been here half the day, but could not find a single one of you young ladies; I dared not barge in, yet I am frantic with worry.” Caiyun asked, “What are you so frantic about?？”：“。Can it be that the young master is abusing our young lady again?” The woman replied, “Our young lady is very ill.，，。The day before yesterday there was a terrible quarrel, and she cried all night; yesterday phlegm blocked her breathing.，。”：“，。”，，。They would not even call a physician, and today she is worse than ever.” Caiyun said, “The old lady is ill; do not make such a commotion over every little thing.” Lady Wang had already heard from within and, fearing that Grandmother Jia would be distressed if she heard, hurriedly told Caiyun to take the woman outside to speak.，，：“？”：“。But Grandmother Jia's mind was keen despite her illness, and she happened to overhear; she asked, “Is Yingchun dying?” Lady Wang replied, “No.，，，。”：“，。”，。These old women do not know how to speak with discretion; she has merely been ill these past two days, and since they fear she may not recover quickly, they have come here to ask about a physician.” Grandmother Jia said, “The physician treating me will do—send for him at once.” Lady Wang then told Caiyun to have the woman report to Lady Xing, and the woman left.，：“，，，，，。Grandmother Jia now grew sorrowful and said, “Of my three granddaughters, one enjoyed every blessing and then died; Tanchun has married far away, and I cannot see her; though Yingchun's life was bitter, I hoped she might somehow endure it, never imagining that she would die so young.！”。What use is there in keeping an old woman of my years alive?” Lady Wang, Yuanyang, and the others spent a long while consoling her.，，，，，，”，。”。At that time Baochai, Li Wan, and the others were not in the room, while Xifeng had recently been ill; afraid that Grandmother Jia's grief would worsen her condition, Lady Wang sent for them to keep her company, then returned to her own room, summoned Caiyun, and reproached the old woman for her lack of sense, saying, “Hereafter, when I am with the old lady, you need not come there to report anything.” The maids obeyed and said no more.，：“。”，。But no sooner had the old woman reached Lady Xing's quarters than someone from outside sent in word: “Second Young Mistress is dead.” Hearing this, Lady Xing too wept for a time.，。As Yingchun's father was away from home, they had no choice but to send Jia Lian quickly to see to matters.，。Knowing that Grandmother Jia was gravely ill, no one dared report the news to her.，，。Alas, this maiden lovely as flower and moon, married for little more than a year, had been tormented by the Sun family until she died.，，。And because Grandmother Jia was then critically ill and no one could conveniently leave her, they actually allowed the Sun family to conclude the funeral in a perfunctory fashion.

She says her husband has been stricken with a sudden illness; all the physicians have seen him and say they fear he cannot recover, though if it develops into consumption he may linger for another four or five years.。That is why Miss Shi is so worried.，，。She also knows that the old lady is ill, but cannot come to pay her respects; she especially told me not to mention this before the old lady.，。”，，，：“。”，，，，，，“”，。If the old lady asks, you must by all means find some way of giving her a different answer.” Hupo sighed but said nothing; after a long while she said, “You may go.” Hupo herself could not report it and planned to tell Yuanyang and have her invent a story, but when she reached Grandmother Jia's bedside, she saw that the old lady's expression had changed drastically; the room was full of people standing about, whispering, “It looks very bad,” and she dared say nothing.，。Meanwhile Jia Zheng quietly called Jia Lian to his side and whispered a few words in his ear.，：“，。Jia Lian softly acknowledged his instructions and went out; he assembled all the household servants then at home and said, “The old lady's end may come at any moment; quickly divide the duties and send people to make the arrangements.，。First of all, bring out the coffin boards and inspect them, so that the lining can be fitted.，，。Hurry to every household, take everyone's measurements, and write them all down clearly; then have the tailors make the mourning clothes.。Go and settle the arrangements for the awnings, bearers, and funeral equipment.。”：“，，。Several more hands should also be assigned to the kitchen.” Lai Da and the others replied, “Second Master, you need not trouble yourself over these matters; we made plans for them long ago.？”：“，。The only question is where the money for all this is to come from.” Jia Lian replied, “There is no need to raise this money; the old lady set it aside herself long ago.，。”，。Just now the master's instruction was only that everything should be done properly; for my part, I think it must also make a fine outward show.” Lai Da and the others assented and sent people off to handle the various tasks.

What it’s about

Liu Wuer finally enters Baoyu's service while he is trying to reach a different lost woman. Unable to dream of Daiyu, Baoyu sleeps in the outer room again in the hope that her spirit will visit him. The arrangement then reminds him of a night when Qingwen and Sheyue attended him, and he recalls Xifeng saying that Wuer resembles Qingwen. He transfers that memory onto Wuer, stares at her as if Qingwen had returned and mistakes his own sincere reminiscence for permission to speak and touch familiarly. Wuer hears flirtation rather than mourning, refuses his advances and warns that she will tell Baochai. His attention thus passes from the Daiyu he deliberately hopes to meet to the Qingwen he remembers and finally to a living woman who insists on her own meaning.

News arrives that Yingchun has died after continued abuse in Sun Shaozu's household. The Lady Dowager grieves another granddaughter but can no longer summon the power to rescue or even properly gather the dispersed family. Shi Xiangyun's husband is also gravely ill, extending uncertainty into another marriage once treated as a settled future. The chapter joins mistaken return to irreversible departure: Qingwen cannot come back through Wuer, and Yingchun's return to her “true origin” is the consoling metaphysical name given to a death produced by marital violence.

When it was written 背景

候芳魂 means waiting for a fragrant soul, while 錯愛 makes the error ethical: affection can harm when it values resemblance over identity. Wuer's earlier false accusation over rose essence already showed how others' narratives could overwrite her actions; here Baoyu's loving narrative risks doing the same. Yingchun's “karmic debt” recalls the registers in the Realm of Great Void, where the women's fates appeared predestined. Readers should hold that cosmology beside the novel's concrete account of causation. Sun's violence, Jia She's bargain and the family's failure to intervene remain responsible even if death is described as returning to an original essence. Learners can compare 候, waiting for return, with 還, returning a debt: both promise closure that the survivors do not actually possess.
