The Unparalleled Warrior of the Dream of the Red Chamber

In the canal, three large ships with carved railings and painted buildings cut through the waves and moved forward rapidly.The boat in the middle was actually rowed by a boat lady wearing a moon white cotton shirt. From a distance, one could tell that it was the boat of a rich lady's wife.

In the cabin, a girl dressed in snow-green satin trimmed with a bucket of beads was leaning against the wooden window of the carved fence. She was holding a book in her hand, but she had no intention of reading it. She stared at the river in a daze through the chiffon screen. , Two lines of tears rolled down silently.

"Girl, don't be sad anymore. I think it's because the master misses the girl so much that he gets sick. This time, the girl will be cured once the father and daughter meet each other. If the girl is only sad, the master will feel relieved when he sees the girl." Now, I blame the slaves for not caring about small things, and adding worries to my heart, it's the girl's fault." A little maid with combed hair, double oval-shaped face and round eyes held a black fox cloak to cover the girl. On, said crisply.

"Xueyan, is dad really just suffering from a minor illness?" The girl turned around slowly, looked at the little girl with sad and weeping eyes, and asked in a low voice.

"When the master sees the girl, he will definitely get better. Girl, you have to take care of yourself. If the master sees the girl so thin, I don't know how to feel sorry for him. It's the girl's fault." Xueyan thought. Stagnant, hurriedly diverted the past with words.

"Girl, please take a look at the few side dishes that Er Ye Lian sent on board." A maid in a lavender dress with gentle eyebrows opened the thick cotton curtain and came in carrying an ebony food box inlaid with silver.She walked to the table and said in a low voice: "Girl, Zhao'er is still waiting for the girl's instructions outside." After speaking, she opened the food box and brought out a few snacks inside.

The girl looked down for a while, and said softly: "Go and tell Zhao'er, just say that I thank the second brother Lian for his kindness, and that everything on the boat is inconvenient, so you don't have to worry about me so much. Zijuan, the Pu'er that Baoyu gave last time Let Zhao'er take it back to Lian's second brother, and give him some money, it's so cold, it's hard for him to run around."

Zijuan agreed, found the things and took some money to pick up the curtain and went out. After Weiji, she heard Zhaoer kowtow outside and said, "Thank you, Miss Lin, for the reward. The servant will leave."

Xueyan stretched her head to look at the snacks on the table, nodded and said, "Unexpectedly, the second master Lian is still careful, these are all snacks and snacks from our south, and they smell good."

Daiyu didn't care about eating, so she said casually, "Eat it if you like it, I don't want to eat it right now."

Xueyan picked up what her parents Daiyu loved to eat, put them on a small white dish from Ding Kiln, and put them in front of Daiyu, begging softly: "My dear girl, you have the right to feel sorry for Xueyan, so why don't you take a bite? Mammy sees that the girl won't eat or drink, and wants to scold Xueyan." Daiyu looked at Xueyan helplessly, shook her head and said, "You, you are really spoiled by me!" Only a shepherd's purse roll less than an inch long was put into Daiyu's mouth, and she laughed when she watched Daiyu eat it.

"Xue Yan, you little hoof, why does it seem like a different person when you get on the boat, and you will entangle the girl. I have never seen you like this at home." Zi Juan came over with freshly brewed tea, and scolded with a smile road.

"Sister Zijuan doesn't know something. There are many people with girls in Beijing, and Xueyan is happy to dodge. Now that there are few people who come out and follow, Xueyan naturally has to do her best." Xueyan spoke plausibly, but let Zijuan Having nothing to say, she put the tea on the table, stretched out her fingers to lightly poke Xue Yan's fair forehead, and could only shake her head.

Daiyu didn't care about the laughter of Zijuan Xueyan, she just turned her head to look out of the window, and sighed softly, how slow it is, how long will it take to get home! Zijuan walked to Daiyu's side and said softly, "My good girl, you just have to be at ease. We are already traveling day and night, and there are three shifts of boatmen on each boat. We will arrive soon." "

Daiyu nodded and said nothing, her heart had already flown to her home in Yangzhou City.At this time, the wings are growing from the ribs, and Daiyu will feel that she is flying too slowly.

On the first boat, Jia Lian sat alone on the couch, with all kinds of wine and vegetables in front of him. Hearing Zhao'er come to report back, Jia Lian said with a smile: "Ms. Lin is careful after all. This Pu'er is the best for degreasing. Go and brew it." .”

Zhao'er hurriedly made tea and served it. Jia Lian took a sip and said with a smile, "It really is good tea."

At this time, there were no other waiters in the boat, only Zhao'er.Zhao'er stood on the ground and asked with a smile, "Second Lord is so kind to Miss Lin."

Jia Lian turned his face hard, and said in a low voice, "Slap your mouth! You can say such bastard words, it's even more unruly!"

Zhao'er didn't expect her flattery to be wrong, and the back shot landed on the horse's leg, so she knelt down and slapped herself a few times.Jia Lian heard the voice very crisply, and then said: "Forget it, get up. You kid will have a better memory in the future. How dare someone like Miss Lin be so profane!"

Zhao'er stood up and waited on Jia Lian to eat and drink.Jia Lian took a sip of tea before saying, "Before we left, your second grandma told me to let the second master take care of Miss Lin. Your second grandma said that Miss Lin looked cold, but her heart was hot. When we have any difficulties, Ms. Lin always helps us quietly and never makes it public. We have to take care of Ms. Lin's love. She also said that Ms. Lin is weak and suffers from three disasters and six diseases on weekdays, but now her uncle is sick again. , she must be sad in her heart. If my elder brother doesn't take good care of this person who is away from home, who else will he point at? Miss Lin has a jade-like character. Second Master, I seldom talk to Miss Lin. That's what Second Master thinks I'm ignorant, so I'm afraid I won't be rude, Miss Lin. Zhao'er, please remember, don't talk nonsense anymore, if you dare to talk nonsense, I will tear your mouth off."

Zhao'er nodded hurriedly and said: "What the Lord said is true, I will remember it, so I don't dare to talk nonsense." Since then, the care of Daiyu's boat has become more and more meticulous, and I dare not make any omissions.

The days passed in Daiyu's anticipation, and Daiyu was still looking at the window in the morning, and saw a city in the distance, she hurriedly asked: "Xueyan, look quickly, that is our Yangzhou city." ?”

Xueyan looked at it carefully, and exclaimed in surprise: "Girl, isn't it Yangzhou City, we are going home soon!"

Daiyu still couldn't believe it, and the tears rolled down again, and she shouted urgently: "Mommy, mommy..."

Wang Momo was sorting things in the inner cabin, when she heard Daiyu's urgent cry, she ran out quickly and said, "What's your order, Miss?"

Daiyu took Wang Momo's hand and said anxiously: "Look, Momo, is that Yangzhou City?"

Wang Momo squinted her eyes for a while, and said with certainty: "It's Yangzhou City, Amitabha Buddha, it's almost home." After hearing Wang Momo's words, Daiyu felt a big stone in her heart. She put her hands together and prayed silently. He said: "Daddy, Yu'er is back, you must get better."

Zijuan came in from the outside and said to Daiyu, "Girl, Second Master Cailian sent someone to say that we will arrive in Yangzhou City in half a day. I advise you not to worry."

The weather was bright and clear, and there was no wind in the canal. It was a rare good weather. Jia Lian stood at the bow of the boat and looked in the direction of Yangzhou. Come down, the bones are sore."

Zhao'er hurriedly laughed and said, "Master, you really worked hard."

The two masters and servants were talking, when they saw a fast boat sailing from the direction of Yangzhou. The speed of the fast boat was extremely fast, and it approached Jia Lian's boat in a short time.Jia Lian saw that the decoration of the boat was simple and elegant, exuding a sense of nobility.Then he smiled at Zhao'er and said, "Sure enough, there are many elegant scholars in Huaiyang. Look, just a fast boat has such a scene. The boats in our house are not bad, but they are always inferior to that boat. .”

Zhao'er hurriedly said: "I've never seen the second master boasting so much before, my slave's eyesight is clumsy, I can't see what's good about that boat, it looks dusty, but our boat looks bright."

Jia Lian knocked Zhao'er with a smile, and scolded: "You have some eyesight, but you can't see the good ones."

While talking, the fast boat was getting closer and closer to Jia Lian's boat. A man in a gray-blue robe stood on the bow of the boat, and he shouted loudly, "Excuse me, are you the Second Master Lian of Rongguo Duke's Mansion?"

Jia Lian signaled Zhao'er to respond, and Zhao'er raised his voice and shouted that we belong to Duke Rong's mansion, I don't know who is the honorable one? " When the other party heard that it was from the Rongguo Mansion, he hurriedly said loudly: "This is Lin Cheng, the deacon outside the Lin Mansion, who came to welcome the Second Master Lian and our lady by the order of the master. "

Lin Cheng's voice was so loud that it spread far and wide into Daiyu's cabin, Xueyan immediately became excited, she pulled Daiyu and cheered: "It's brother Lin Cheng, girl, we're here, we're going home Already!"

Daiyu's eyes became hot, she grabbed Wang Momo's hand and said, "Mommy, Brother Lin Cheng is here to pick us up."

Wang Momo was already in tears, Lin Cheng was her eldest son, she had not seen Lin Cheng since accompanying Daiyu to Beijing, now the reunion of mother and son was just around the corner, how could she not be excited.Nanny Wang's lips trembled, she was so excited that she couldn't speak.Xueyan had rushed out, waved vigorously towards Lin Cheng's fast boat and said, "Brother Lin Cheng, Miss is here!" Seeing Xueyan, Lin Cheng smiled and waved, and a servant rushed from behind Lin Cheng Coming out, he waved his hands to Xueyan and shouted loudly: "Sister Xueyan..." Within a few replies, the clipper boat had already landed on Jia's boat, a gangplank was set up between the two boats, and Lin Cheng quickly stepped onto it. Jia Lian's boat knelt down in front of Qian'er and said, "Lin Cheng greets Second Master Lian. Second Master Lian has worked hard all the way!"

Before Lin Cheng finished his salute, Jia Lian pulled him up and smiled, "Steward Lin, please get up quickly. Is Uncle Lin still in good health?"

Lin Cheng frowned slightly, and said softly: "Master's body is not in good shape."

Although Lin Cheng's words were within Jia Lian's expectation, Jia Lian's heart still skipped a beat. He hurriedly said, "Miss Lin is on the boat behind, butler Lin speaks slowly, don't let Miss Lin worry about it."

Lin Cheng lowered his hands and said, "Yes, Lin Cheng is sensible."

Jia Lian accompanied Lin Cheng to Daiyu's boat. Through the thick curtain, Lin Cheng knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Cheng to greet the young lady. Daiyu hurriedly said, "Mommy, go and invite Lian's second brother and Lin Cheng in." "Nurse Wang nodded gratefully, stepped out and pulled Lin Cheng up, and called softly: "Cheng'er! " Then he couldn't make a sound.

Lin Cheng whispered: "Mother, the baby is fine, don't be sad."

Mother Wang wiped away her tears and said to Jia Lian, "Second Master made a joke. Cheng'er is the son of a servant, and we haven't seen each other for many years." Jia Lian nodded with a smile.

Daiyu was sitting in the inner cabin, and there was a bead curtain hanging on the door of the moon cave hanging flowers in front of her. Seeing Jia Lian and Lin Cheng coming in, Daiyu got up and bowed her body, saying, "Second brother Lian is polite."

Jia Lian said in a low voice, "They are all close relatives of the whole family. Sister Lin doesn't need to be polite." Seeing that he had settled down in the guest seat in the outer cabin, Daiyu sat down.Lin Chengfu came forward to pay respects again, Daiyu asked eagerly, "Lin Cheng, how is Daddy's condition?"

Lin Cheng had already figured out how to reply on the road, he put his hands down and bowed his head and said: "Miss Hui, the master caught wind and cold in autumn, and coughed all the time after winter. , please come back for a reunion with the lady. The master is in a good mood when he sees the lady, and the illness will naturally heal."

After listening to Lin Cheng's words, Daiyu felt a little relieved, and asked carefully about the situation at home. After an hour passed, Daiyu felt that the speed of the boat slowed down. : "Go back to Second Master, Miss Lin, Yangzhou is here."
