"It's not easy for me to ask her about this kind of thing." Ziwei whispered, "She is so thin-skinned, no matter what she thinks in her heart, she will definitely be angry on her face and say she doesn't want to."

"Then let her read Mr. Li's poems first to see if they have a spiritual resonance." Fanghua said excitedly.

"This..." Ziwei thought for a while, picked out two poems and copied a copy for herself, then put the others in a box and locked them, and handed the key to Fanghua.

After drying the ink, Ziwei put the rice paper aside, asked Fanghua to bring the chessboard, and called Xiuju to come in: "Go and see if Sister Lin has woken up from her afternoon nap, and if she wakes up, tell her I have nothing to do, so I will find her to play chess."

Xiuju agreed, and went out with a little girl.

"Do you know much about Mr. Li?" Ziwei asked.

"Well, not too much, I just know that his family has a good family style..." Fanghua thought of something, closed her mouth, and looked at Ziwei cautiously.

It's over, she has forgotten that Li Chongguang and Ying Yangzi are still relatives.

Ziwei guessed what she was worried about, and smiled: "It's been so long, I just pretend it never happened."

Fanghua smiled awkwardly, and said: "Since he plays close to my brother, his character should be okay, a little arrogant and naive. But he is better than Baoyu anyway, at least his room is much cleaner. "

Ziwei didn't know what came to her mind, she shook her head and said: "It's just a man's nature to be greedy for beauty. Since he has a high character, he must not be a man who loves others. The Li family has a big business and is full of nobles. It is really suitable for Sister Lin who is so delicate. , A girl with a delicate body?"

"How can someone be so perfect? ​​And now he is the one who wants to marry Miss Lin, which means that he really likes it. Is it better to have a blind marriage without those parents' order and matchmaker's words?"

"He wants to ask for marriage, but what about his family? He can't tell his family that he likes a girl who writes legendary stories."

Fanghua's eyes suddenly brightened: "Hey, I have an idea. Mr. Li has an older sister who is not yet married. It is said that she is also a well-known talented woman in the capital. We just need to find a way to get Miss Li and Miss Lin to know each other. Is there any reason to use the excuse of admiring Miss Lin's talent to convince his family?"

Ziwei thought for a while, then sighed: "You can see, our Jia family has been in contact with each other, are there any children from such a noble family? There is also a sister-in-law Zhu, who will stay behind closed doors when she gets married. Those of the Li family ..."

Hey, Li Wan and Li Chongguang are both from a scholarly family, and they both have the surname Li.

Fanghua also thought of this, and exchanged a look with Ziwei.

"However, the less people know about this, the better, and it's not convenient for us to go to her place to inquire about the news." Fanghua pouted, "Four kings and eight males, it's so honorable, but it also locked the relationship network. Outside People inside can't get in, and people inside can't get out."

"Forget it, let's see sister Lin's reaction first, and then we can make plans." Ziwei said softly.

Lin Daiyu came after a while, and Ziwei took her to sit down and play chess, and let her see the rice paper beside the chessboard.

"This poem..." Daiyu picked it up and read it again, then looked at Ziwei suspiciously, "Is this written by the second sister?"

Ziwei smiled without saying a word, and started the game with Heizi.

Daiyu put the rice paper aside and didn't ask any more questions.Fanghua couldn't help but said: "Miss Lin, how is this poem written?"

"Usually, pretentious, with a lot of rhetoric." Daiyu saw that it was not written by Ziwei, and said very bluntly.

Fanghua knows nothing about poetry, he can only see if it rhymes or not.She thought that since Li Chongguang is a scholarly child, he has studied books for many years, and his poems must be good, otherwise he would not have asked Jia Xuan to bring them in, so as to please the beauty.Who knew that Daiyu would make such an evaluation, could it be that Li Chongguang's writing was really bad?Or did Daiyu see that they deliberately made her pay attention to the intention of this poem, so she said something ironic?Daiyu is so smart that she opened the perspective of God?

Seeing Fanghua's incomprehensible look, Ziwei burst out laughing.

Fanghua didn't understand, but Ziwei did.

Li Chongguang is different from Ziwei and Daiyu. Li Chongguang is serious about taking the imperial examination, and he studies the four books, five classics and stereotyped articles.Composing poems and lyrics is the icing on the cake for these scholars, just like modern people learning the violin and practicing brush calligraphy. Maybe they can increase their college entrance examination points after learning it well, or increase their intimacy when they make friends.

Li Chongguang is obviously the kind of person who can read and take exams, but unfortunately, he lacks a lot of artistic conception in poetry.These few poems to flatter Daiyu were written hastily and pretended to be elegant, how could they catch Daiyu's eyes?

If Li Chongguang showed Daiyu the article that he was praised by his private school teacher, he might get a few words of praise from Daiyu.

It's really self-defeating.

Full of doubts, Fanghua wrote back to Jia Xuan. Jia Xuan told Li Chongguang of Daiyu's comments intact. Li Chongguang was shocked and left in a daze.

Jia Xuan closed the door, lying on the table and laughing.

No matter what age, there are people who write love poems to chase girls.The quality of these love poems also varies. Jia Xuan saw many love poems that made people laugh and cry in modern times. She never expected to see classical Chinese versions in ancient times.

Half a month after Princess Ningxiang got married, someone came to invite Ziwei and Daiyu to visit her.

Ziwei took Fanghua with her, Daiyu didn't take anyone with her, and Mother Jia accompanied three or four wives to follow her out.Zijuan is still there, but Xueyan feels aggrieved: "Why don't our girls let maidservants serve on them?"

The princess's mansion is not big, and Ziwei knocked on it coldly, but it was not as exquisite as the Grand View Garden, and my heart felt a little chilly.She didn't think much of it when she was in the eldest princess's mansion, because the eldest princess loved luxury and was favored by the emperor, the mansion was extremely gorgeous.But when the princess mansion was being built, it was just in time for the war. The emperor set an example and had to be frugal, and the eldest princess didn't dare to be so high-profile, so she just let people do it according to the specifications.

Now it seems that there is no possibility of avoiding the disaster of the Jia family.It's just the residence of a concubine Gui Ning, but it's so magnificently built, it's too eye-catching, it's too troublesome.

Princess Ningxiang has already dressed up as a woman, and she doesn't look as innocent and cheerful as before she was married, but has a sad expression on her face.

After the salute, Ziwei and Daiyu accompanied her to play in the garden, Princess Ningxiang waved the waiters away, then held Ziwei's hand and complained: "It's really annoying to be married."

"Why, did the son-in-law treat you well?" Ziwei whispered.

"He doesn't dare yet, it's just that these nuns control too much." Princess Ningxiang's tone was a little cold, which made Ziwei feel a little scared.

This time, Ziwei and Daiyu didn't understand, but Fanghua did.

The princess and the son-in-law had to have the consent of the mothers.This is very similar to the system of the Qing Dynasty. After some princesses and princesses got married, they could not see their son-in-law several times a year.Some of them are weak-tempered, so they have to turn to curry favor with the nanny.These nuns, one by one, take care of more than their own mothers.

"When the servant girl first came in, she saw a green-jacketed mother-in-law, who seemed quite friendly." Fanghua said boldly.

Ziwei frowned and glanced at her, but said nothing.Fanghua seemed to be timid, and never dared to talk too much in front of other masters. Now that she speaks, she may have some ideas.

"It doesn't matter what those nuns do, as long as the son-in-law treats you well." Daiyu persuaded, "Everything else is empty."

Princess Ningxiang reached out to pinch the flower buds. She saw Chen Shang twice in half a month. Chen Shang also met a cat like a mouse every time, afraid that she would be too scared.

"That's not necessarily the case, girl, you don't know, these older women are dirty in their minds. The son-in-law is so handsome, it's hard to guarantee that they won't covet the beauty of the son-in-law and eat the tofu of the son-in-law." Fanghua said.

"The more you talk, the more unruly you are, slap your mouth!" Ziwei scolded.

Fanghua knelt down, and Princess Ningxiang also said: "Even if they are willing, Chen Shang is not willing, and he is not stupid. Those nuns are so old that they are wrinkled all over."

Ziwei and Daiyu blushed when they heard that, the princess is married, but they are not yet, so I dare not listen to this.

"That's not necessarily the case, there is always someone who is not so old." Fanghua was not convinced, and whispered.

Oh, she's already reminded me of this, the Princess should understand.

Sure enough, Princess Ningxiang's eyes lit up, and she swept Fanghua's head with a handkerchief: "This girl, it's still the same, what can I say, it seems that you girls are too good-natured, and spoiled you."

Now that she has an idea, Princess Ningxiang is in a much better mood, looking at Daiyu with a smile: "It's been a few months since I saw her, and she looks more outstanding, if you can be my sister-in-law, it will be great, see you every day With such a beauty, I can eat a few more bowls of rice."

Daiyu was stunned, and shyly said: "The princess has praised it so much, if the princess likes it, it's good to call the women over every day when I eat."

Princess Ningxiang glanced at Ziwei with a smile: "I have always been at ease about your business, but you, sister Lin, took advantage of it. The third young master of the Li family who is not very good at thinking, do you know?"
