Xiaoxiang Water Cloud in the Red Chamber

Shui Rong looked deeply at Daiyu, and sighed softly: "Dai'er has suffered."

An ordinary sentence brought back all Daiyu's sufferings in the past few months, her eyelashes fluttered, tears slipped down quietly, and she choked up, "Brother Rong, Daddy doesn't want me anymore." She is sensible and well-behaved, after all, she is only an eight-year-old child, and she has to obey her father's arrangement. Although she knows it is for her own good, she still complains a little.

Shui Rong's heart ached, and he suddenly remembered that she was so sad when Jia Min passed away. At that time, he swore in his heart not to let her cry again.He didn't care about anything else, he stretched out his arms to take Daiyu into his arms, patted her on the back lightly, but didn't persuade her anything.Because he knew that Daiyu didn't really blame Lin Ruhai, but that she felt a little unwilling and wronged to be away from her relatives and alone in a foreign land at a young age, so it's good to let it out.

After crying for a long time, Daiyu finally stopped her sobs. She felt that her heart became much brighter, and her depression of the past few days disappeared.It was only then that I remembered that Xueyan Chunxian was still in the room, it was embarrassing for me to cry and act like a baby!Thinking of this, he broke free from Shui Rong's embrace and looked around.

Shui Rong knew Daiyu's childlike nature, and she still had a good face. Seeing her red eyes, with crystal tears hanging on her face, she turned her head to the side and looked to the side, feeling both heartbroken and funny, and said softly: "You two girls, go out early. gone."

Daiyu's little face was as red as rouge, she pursed her mouth and said angrily, "Who asked you, brother stinky."

Shui Rong smiled and was not angry.Daiyu suddenly caught a glimpse of the water-melting front and saw that it was wet in a large area, and immediately knew that it was her masterpiece, she lowered her head with a coquettish cry, twisting the veil uncomfortably.

Shui Rong laughed and said, "What's so embarrassing, I wouldn't laugh at you even if the water flooded Jinshan. Dai'er, just be your true self in front of me." He lightly took care of Dai Yu messed up her hair, and sighed softly: "But I still hope you are happy, don't be sad anymore."

Daiyu lowered her head, moved in her heart, she was silent for a while before whispering softly: "I see."

Shui Rong said: "Yu'er finally came back, why don't you go to Beijing Palace with me to live for a few days, the concubine mother has been urging you several times since she knew you were here, and she only complained about my incompetence, and I haven't picked you up after so many days Go into the mansion."

Daiyu thought for a while before she said: "It's not good to go to your place just after I came out of that mansion. After all, I'm still in service now, so it's not good to keep running around. If it wasn't for my grandmother there, I wouldn't I went to Jia's mansion. Besides, it's a sensitive time now, if I go to your place more often, it will attract people's attention, and I'm afraid I'll cause you trouble."

Shui Rong smiled and said: "You are too caring. You are well aware of the friendship between my father and your father. There is no need for our two families to separate each other. Besides, my concubine mother and your mother are close friends in the boudoir. Now I know that you are here. Don't worry too much about forcing me to pick you up every day. As for causing trouble, the first thing is that the situation is not that bad. Second, don't underestimate it. With the strength of your father and our palace, if even you can't protect us, then don't eat at the court."

Daiyu knew that her father had entrusted the Beijing Palace to take care of her, so it was not against the etiquette to go by herself, but she really didn't want to cause trouble for Shui Rong in her heart.After pondering for a while, he said: "It's better to live some more days. These days, I want to copy a copy of the "Diamond Sutra" for my mother, and I will go after I finish copying, okay?"

Shui Rong is a little discouraged, her Dai'er is good in everything, but her thoughts are too delicate, so she has more worries.I wanted to say something more, but suddenly my thoughts flashed, now it is early autumn, and it will be Mid-Autumn Festival soon, why don't I come to pick her up again during Mid-Autumn Festival, so as to save her from being alone here.Besides, if the mountain doesn’t come, it’s me, and if I go, it’s fine if the mountain doesn’t come. Thinking of this, I don’t insist anymore, and said with a smile: “Then follow Dai’er. Dai’er must take good care of her body and don’t get tired. I will come and visit often your."

It was already evening when Shui Rong returned to the palace, and when he entered the back house, he saw Dowager Bei Jing, who was the only one seeing him, and asked, "Why didn't Yu'er come?"

Shui Rong smiled wryly and said: "She said that she would copy the "Diamond Sutra" for her mother, but I know she is afraid of causing trouble for me, and afraid that someone with a heart will use our relationship to threaten me."

Grand Concubine Bei Jing chuckled: "Rong'er sometimes suffers, but now I see it. Your little sister doesn't seem to trust your ability."

Shui Rong looked at his mother rather gloatingly, and gritted his teeth: "One day she will know. Hmph, you only read jokes, and when she comes, don't count on her to be the tyrant."

Seeing his embarrassment, the concubine smiled and said, "I'm not just laughing at you, I just find it strange that when your charm is so low, you rush to care about Yu'er, but Yu'er doesn't want it. It's really strange. I'm worried about you, be careful that your little daughter-in-law despises you and ran away with others."

Shui Rong supported his forehead and moaned weakly: "My good mother, Yu'er is only eight years old, there is no love between a man and a woman in my heart, you are too early to worry about it. Besides, you are too underestimating me Yes, the person I like will naturally be held in my hands and put in my heart. I have cared about her more these years and stayed with her more, and as time goes by, she will naturally put me in her heart slowly. So don't worry that she will look down on me."

The concubine pursed her lips and said with a smile: "That's good, that's good. The heart is the most important thing in everything. Just get rid of it slowly. Anyway, if I lose my good daughter-in-law, I won't follow her."

Shui Rong smiled, she was very happy that the concubine mother liked Daiyu, but she didn't quite understand why she cared so much about Daiyu who had never met before, she actually decided it.

The concubine was silent for a while, and said seriously: "How is Yu'er living in Jia's house?"

Anger flashed in Shui Rong's eyes: "Of course she agreed. But what Chunxian said is not the case. That Jia Wang family only showed Dai'er's face, and spread a lot of rumors behind her sister Xue's family Woolen cloth."

Concubine Toffee wondered: "What's the matter with Xue's family?"

Shui Rong snorted coldly: "She is the younger sister of the Wang family, and she married the royal merchant Xue's family. This time, she came here to wait for the election. The family has long since fallen, but it's just that she lives in Jia's house for nothing. The girl who is waiting to be elected heard that It’s not bad, but she has a lot of scheming, every day to show off and make some small favors, and those unscrupulous villains who play tricks use her to slander Dai’er every day.”

The concubine said "Oh": "It's nothing. They are just people who climb the dragon and the phoenix. They can't make any big waves. But that Jia Wang has to be careful, he is not a vegetarian. Even the Jia Taijun Yu'er cares too much. After all, what she cares about most is the interests of the Jia family. I heard your father say that Jia Taijun wants to hire Yu'er to her precious grandson. Hey, I know that the Jia Wang family and Sister Min has a deep hatred, and she even wants to push Yu'er into the pit of fire."

Shui Rong was shocked, he clenched his hands unconsciously, and with a slap, a corner of the table was missing, he gritted his teeth and said: "There is such a thing, hmph, that dude is also worthy of Dai'er." After speaking, he was a little puzzled: " What is the difference between Jia's family and Uncle Lin's family, why do you always say beware of them?"

The concubine sighed faintly: "It's hard for me to say, you can ask your father. Yu'er still pays attention to her grandmother now, maybe she doesn't know the past, otherwise she might never come to their house again."

Shui Rong smiled lightly and said: "I don't think she knows the past, and Dai'er doesn't want to see them. Besides, with me watching, she won't be bullied."

Back in the front hall, Shui Rong couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart. After all, Shui Yue told Lin Ruhai's past, he couldn't help hating the Jia family. If it wasn't for them, how could Aunt Min have left so early, Dai Er How can you be born with congenital deficiencies?Then Jia Taijun can ignore his daughter for the sake of the Jia family, let alone his granddaughter.

The more Shui Rong thought about it, the angrier she became, thinking that Daiyu didn't know that her mother was murdered by Jia's family, and she felt uneasy because she was only concerned about the so-called blood relationship, for fear that Daiyu would be tied down because of being deceived by them.Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still anymore, he just felt that it was time for Daiyu to recognize the true face of Jia's family, so he went out of the palace, and went straight to Lin's mansion.

It's not very late yet, and Daiyu and others haven't rested yet.Chunxian was reading a book in the outer room, when she suddenly felt a slight wind coming from the roof, she hurriedly floated out of the room.As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Shui Rong falling in the yard in a moonlight, almost screamed, quickly covered his mouth, and said softly: "Why is the prince here?" It seems that my prince has no hobby of being a flower thief.

Shui Rong didn't care what Chunxian was thinking, she just asked, "Is Dai'er asleep?" Chunxian shook her head.Shui Rong said: "Go and tell her that I have something to do with her."

Chunxian rolled her eyes in her heart, isn't this embarrassing, it's so late, no matter how young a girl is, she's still a girl, why is the prince so clueless.After thinking about it, he went into the back room and said to Daiyu, "Miss, the King of Jingjing is here."

As expected, Daiyu frowned, and wondered: "Brother Rong, why are you here so late, just say I'm going to sleep, and come back tomorrow."

Chunxian said helplessly: "I just said that the girl is not asleep."

Daiyu thought for a while, Shui Rong must have something to do when she came so late, it would be bad if she was delayed.I am not a person who sticks to etiquette, and I am not afraid of being crooked when I am upright. This is in my own home, so there is no need to be so taboo.After thinking about it, he said: "Sister Xueyan, sister Chunxian, let's go to the living room." But he was not allowed to enter the bedroom.

Daiyu came out with Xueyan Chunxian, and saw Shui Rong standing in the courtyard in a daze.Daiyu said: "Brother Rong, what's the matter, let's talk in the living room."

Shui Rong smiled and said: "Just a few words, let's talk in the courtyard." The two sat on the stone bench under the plane tree in the courtyard.Snow geese make tea in the morning.

The night is clear and the moon is thick.A bright moon hangs slantingly, and its brilliance flows to the ground like mercury, the shadows of the trees sway unevenly, and the faint fragrance of jasmine flows in the air, making it quiet and peaceful.

Seeing Shui Rong's gloomy expression, Daiyu asked, "Brother Rong, what's the matter?"

Shui Rong pondered, thinking over and over in his heart, not knowing what to say.Lin Ruhai must have had his own reasons for not telling Daiyu about the past, so shouldn't he pierce the window paper.Only then did he feel that he was offended.

Daiyu saw that Shui Rong's expression was fluctuating, and his eyes were struggling, and it seemed difficult to make a decision, so she became more and more curious.

"Dai'er, will you go to Jia's mansion in the future?"

Daiyu was stunned, looked at Shui Rong with a puzzled face, and said after a long while: "It's my mother's natal home, and my grandmother is there, if my grandmother comes to pick me up. Maybe I have to visit it occasionally even if I don't like it, otherwise wouldn't it be I was called unfilial. Anyway, my grandmother still loves me a little bit. Is that what Brother Rong came to ask?"

Shui Rong sighed softly, as expected, Daiyu still had feelings for Jiamu.Think about it: "Yu'er, what do you think of your grandmother?"

Daiyu stared at the shadow of the mother-in-law tree on the ground, and sighed lightly: "I can see that my grandmother really loves me. When I was in the mansion, even her own granddaughter stayed behind. But, she, um, she also has her own. Helpless, after all, my surname is Lin."

Shui Rong saw that there was a touch of sentimentality in Daiyu's expression, Ruyu's face seemed to be shrouded in a faint mist, his heart suddenly relaxed, he really underestimated his Dai'er, with Dai'er's exquisite mind, why can't she see through.He smiled slightly: "I'm relieved. But Dai'er should try to go there as little as possible in the future. One day you will know how vulnerable your grandmother's so-called sincere love is. Dai'er, I I don't want you to be fettered by this fragile relationship."

Daiyu looked vague, and asked for a long time: "Brother Rong knows something, otherwise he wouldn't be in such a hurry to say these things."

Shui Rong shook his head in embarrassment and annoyance, and said with a smile, "It's nothing, it's just that I don't feel at ease after hearing about your experience in Jia's mansion during the day."

Daiyu laughed slowly: "Brother Rong thinks this makes sense?" She stared into Shui Rong's eyes and looked at Shui Rong a little nervously before asking, "Is it related to mother?"

Shui Rong's eyes jumped, his expression stunned: "Dai'er."

There was a gleam of understanding in Daiyu's eyes, her cold face was like a bright moonlight: "I guessed it, I was suspicious from my mother's last words, and today you came here to ask, how could I return it?" Can't guess."

Shui Rong sighed: "Daier's guess is right, but since Uncle Lin didn't tell you, it must be too late to tell you, and I can't go against Uncle Lin's wishes. You just need to be careful about that house."

Daiyu raised her head sullenly, looked at a silver hook in the sky far away, and complained slightly annoyed: "Even you know about my mother, but my daughter doesn't know anything about it."

Shui Rong smiled and said: "Okay, you are still young, Uncle Lin will tell you when you grow up."

Daiyu twitched her fingers and retorted in a low voice, "I've grown up already."

Shui Rong chuckled, only a child would say that.He stood up and said, "It's cold outside, and it's getting late, Dai'er, go to bed quickly. I'll go too."

Daiyu nodded, seeing Shui Rong standing motionless with questioning eyes.Shui Rong smiled and said, "I'll watch you go in before leaving."

Daiyu's heart skipped a beat, a little warmth rose, she smiled brightly at Shuirong, turned around and walked into the house holding Xueyan's hand.Shui Rong watched Daiyu's small figure disappear into the Xianglian, and then flew into the night.

Lying on the bed, Daiyu couldn't help sighing, full of thoughts.I thought I would suffer from insomnia, but I soon fell asleep, maybe because of Shui Rong's caring words and warm eyes.
