[Red Mansion] Different Daiyu

On the day Tai Concubine Yi left the palace, the weather was excellent.Concubine Yi stood under the high walls of the Forbidden City, looking up at the long-lost blue sky and white clouds. Concubine Yi shed tears of joy. She was only 14 years old and entered the palace with the hope of her family. Since then, except Following Kangxi's tour beyond the Great Wall, she never took a step outside the Forbidden City.Now, she finally came out.But my younger sister will never be able to leave Zijin City.Three years ago, Guo Guiren fell ill and passed away.

Brother Jiu rode a horse himself, and brought a carefully arranged soft sedan chair, waiting for Concubine Yi.Seeing Concubine Yi weeping at the city wall, Brother Jiu approached with a playful smile, "What's the matter, mother? You still can't bear it, then my son will send you back!"

Concubine Yi stretched out her hand and grabbed Brother Jiu's ear, "What nonsense, don't hurry up. I think Hong Kun Hong is right. Especially Hong Shi, I don't know if he is doing well now?" If Hong Kun belonged to Kangxi The treasure in the eyes, that Hong is the meat of Concubine Yi's flesh.She gave birth to two sons, the fifth and the ninth, and the two sons gave her birth to more than a dozen grandchildren, but only Hong from the Laojiu family looked the most like her, so she also liked Hong the most. yes.

"You only think about Hongshi, but don't you worry about your son and Hongkun? And Baozhen, Hongchang? Well, son, tell Hongkun and the others about this when you get back." Brother Jiu said with a smile.

"How dare you! I'll break your leg! How is Yu'er doing now? I heard from the queen that it's twins again this time? Oh, Yu'er's pregnancy is difficult, and she's getting older. You want everything! Pay attention. Besides, you are almost forty, and your son-in-law is five, isn't it not enough! You men are like this, you only care about your own pain, and don't think that Yu'er is thirty. I can't stand it. You." Dowager Yi muttered.

"Oh, my good mother. I found that the position of your son in your heart is getting lower and lower. I remember that when I was young, you heard that you loved me. Why has it changed now? Didn't you say that you have more children than you before? Is my grandson Fu’s? Why are you now persuading me not to have another child? I am your son, and people who don’t know think I’m your son-in-law!” Brother Jiu was very happy, even though he knew about Er Niang and Dai’er. The relationship is good, but at that time, one of them was in the palace and the other was outside the palace, and they didn't get along every day. Now they are in the same room every day, so it is inevitable to worry.

Concubine Yi doesn't know what her son is thinking. She is getting older, and she doesn't have the aggressive temperament she had when she was young. Besides, she will point to her son and daughter-in-law in the future, so how can she rely on her status to get along with her daughter-in-law .Besides, her daughter-in-law is very good, she has no personality, talent and appearance, and she can give birth. She alone gave herself five grandchildren and one granddaughter. Whose daughter-in-law can compare to this? !This alone is enough to make her look down on the concubines in the harem.

"You only know now. From now on, I will treat you as my uncle, uncle, take care of me."

"Emiang, what nonsense are you talking about. You have worked hard for your son all your life, and now is the time for your son to honor you. Hong Kunhong and Baozhen are waiting for you in the mansion. Dai'er prepared a yard early , the layout inside is all carefully arranged by Daier, I am sure you will like it." Brother Jiu said with a smile.

Brother Jiu personally supported the sedan chair and walked all the way to the mansion.Lin Daiyu has been pregnant for six months, and she is waiting at the door with her big belly. Hong Kunhong is standing next to Lin Daiyu, one on the left and one on the right, and Hong Chang is holding Baozhen and standing on the left side of Lin Daiyu.Seeing the sedan chair approaching from afar, Lin Daiyu hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up, light the firecrackers."

There was a large hang of firecrackers hanging in front of Prince Ke's mansion. Qin Jian lit the firecrackers with a fire starter. The firecrackers were crackling, and everyone covered their ears. Concubine Yi got off the sedan chair with the support of elder brother Jiu, and looked at the firecrackers in front of her. Concubine Yi was very moved by this lively scene.

Lin Daiyu supported her stomach, "Greetings to Er Niang, Er Niang, are you tired? Let me take you to the yard where you will live in the future. It is full of good things that the master gave you. Hongchang and Baozhen also I have made a lot of comments, see if you like it? If there is anything you don’t like, just tell me, and I will ask my master to change it for you immediately.”

Concubine Yi took Lin Daiyu's hand and said angrily: "Oh, you are so pregnant, what are you doing out there, how do you feel now? Are you still shy? How are you eating and how are you sleeping? Not naughty? What about Lao Jiu, did he make you angry? If so, just tell Er Niang, Er Niang will teach him a lesson for you."

Before Lin Daiyu said anything, Elder Brother Jiu smiled and joked: "Emiang, you have wronged your son-in-law. How obedient I am, how dare you offend her! She is like this in our house now!" Thumbs up.

Lin Daiyu asked curiously: "What uncle? Master, my mother, what are you talking about?"

Concubine Yi smiled, "He said I was biased, so I said that now I treat you like a daughter and her like a aunt!"

Both Lin Daiyu and Hongchang laughed. Really, a good son has become a son-in-law.

Lin Daiyu and Nine Brothers supported Concubine Yi from left to right, while Hong Chang followed closely behind Lin Daiyu, watching Lin Daiyu's condition all the time.Baozhen, on the other hand, led the two younger brothers like a big sister, and followed behind everyone.

Arriving outside a courtyard, Brother Jiu said with a smile: "Er Niang, this is it, this is the largest courtyard in our mansion. The name hasn't been named yet, Er Niang give me a name!" The group walked away went in.There is an osmanthus tree in the middle of the yard, which can't be hugged by a person, and the shade is so great.A semicircular hanging chair hangs under the shade of a tree, with a plain flower cushion inside.

Baozhen said with a smile: "Mama, this one is very comfortable. If you are bored in the room first, sit on the hanging chair, swing around, and look at the flowers and grass. I like this too. Well, it’s a pity that there are none in the palace.”

Concubine Yi looked at the hanging chair in surprise, Brother Jiu hurriedly helped Concubine Yi to sit on it and tried it out. Concubine Yi sat on it and looked up, "Is this sturdy? I am a bit heavy now. "

Brother Jiu smiled, "Emiang, don't worry. I won't fall to you."

Lin Daiyu said with a smile: "Emiang, I let someone plant some flowers in the yard, and built a grape trellis over there. When the time comes, Emiang can take Hongkun Hongshi to pick grapes and eat them together. Are you here?" Look over there, I have someone set up a wisteria shelf for you. After the wisteria blooms, it will be beautiful. There is a wooden table and stools under it. You can sit and drink there on summer evenings. Tea."

Brother Jiu saw that Concubine Yi had a tendency to sit around in the past, and said with a smile: "Emiang, don't worry, go and have a look in the room, there is a big surprise inside."

So the group of people walked into the house again, and as soon as they entered the door, Concubine Yi found that the floor under her feet was different, "Is this a wooden board?" Brother Jiu lowered his head to help Concubine Yi take off the bottom of the flower plate and put on wool Huhu slippers, "You are right, this is a wooden floor. I have someone lay pipes underneath, just like the walls. In winter, the floors and walls are warm and won't let you freeze. Also This one is a sofa, something for foreigners, just sit and watch, it’s so soft.”

After Concubine Yi sat down, she was startled by the softness of the sofa. "Yo, this is really comfortable!"

"And this is the vanity mirror from the Western side, is it clear? There are also these, which belong to Westerners. This one is called perfume, and this one is lipstick. Do you like it or not?" Brother Jiu chattered talking.Concubine Yi looked at the layout of the room, the room was bright and spacious, full of sunlight, she was so happy that she smiled and burst into tears.

"Emiang, what's the matter? Is there something you are not satisfied with? If there is something you are not satisfied with, please tell us!" Lin Daiyu said anxiously.

Hong Kunhong surrounded Concubine Yi on one left and one on the right, "Mama, what's wrong with you? Mama don't cry."

"I'm not dissatisfied at all, I just think that after staying in the palace for most of my life, and now I can still live in such a nice house, Mama is happy, happy." Taifei Yi said with a smile, wiping her tears.

Brother Nine and Lin Daiyu also laughed, "Er Niang, let's have dinner together tonight, Baozhen will cook for you, you should appreciate me!"

Concubine Yi said in surprise: "Really? My Baozhen can cook now? Then Mama has to try it out."

Baozhen smiled shyly and said, "No way, I'm just kidding, I can't compare to what Er Niang did. Mama, just as long as you don't dislike it."

Concubine Yi smiled and hugged Baozhen in her arms, "My good granddaughter, it's too late for Mama to be happy, how could she despise you."

That night, Brother Jiu's family sat together, Concubine Yi sat at the head, and Hong Kunhong sat next to each other, chirping: "Mamo, this is delicious, try it." Mamo, would you like to try this piece of tofu?"

Lin Daiyu sat on the side with a smile, while Brother Jiu was taking care of her, and at the same time taking care of Hongshi who was sitting with her.Hongchang sat between Hongkun and Baozhen, taking care of the two young ones.

Concubine Yi was so happy surrounded by her two grandchildren, she even ate half a bowl more than usual for dinner, she just watched Nanny Lian behind her hurriedly stopped her, "Toffee Concubine, you can't eat anymore , Beware of stomach discomfort at night."

Nanny Lian was Tai Concubine Yi's nanny, she accompanied her into the palace since she was a child, she married a man in her early years, and when the man died of illness, she returned to serve by Tai Concubine Yi's side.I have the best relationship with Concubine Yi.

Lin Daiyu also persuaded: "Emiang, there will be a long time in the future. After the daughter-in-law gives birth to the child, she will cook for you. Don't worry."

Concubine Yi put down her chopsticks, "Okay, okay, I'll give Yu'er some face. You old man, but you always keep me in check. Well, I'm done eating, so you can go down and eat too."

Hong Chang smiled, "Even Nanny and Aunt Cui go, they are all ready. So that Mama won't worry."

Only then did Nanny Lian smile and Concubine Yi saw that Nanny Lian had left, picked up the chopsticks and stuffed the tofu into her mouth, then put down the chopsticks under the dissatisfied eyes of her children and grandchildren.
