[Red Chamber] Daiyu Reborn

Chapter 146 Preparations, begging for cleverness, and a new plan Tao Xianglian tea is an old friend

They are obviously the father and daughter who can't be more close, but how come they lose their temper every day, and they are more stubborn than the other!

He Shi was about to ask Nongqin in detail, but heard a light cough, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Nongyue blinking and staring at her, showing a rare and pitiful look.

Looking at Daiyu again, she also stared at the little girl crying sobbingly on the ground, her clear eyes also contained helplessness, but she couldn't hide her deep sympathy.

"Hey..." Mrs. He shook his head, "There can be no mistakes in the Qixi Palace Banquet. The Eldest Princess and County Master Lin will step back first, and then come back to Ai's family when they have come up with a more complete idea."

"Thank you, Grandmother, my granddaughter will definitely live up to her promise!" Nong Yuezuitian said coquettishly, then pulled Daiyu and turned around and ran away.There are a lot of embarrassing things in the palace, but this is playing the piano. I guess the father and daughter are making a joke again, so she should avoid it!

Daiyu was led out by her all the way, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she entered Qinfangyuan, looked at Nongyue, and sighed: "It's still your thoughtfulness." Her first reaction was to hide, but she didn't expect how to hide farther away.

Nongyue lay down on the soft couch to hug the cat, turned around and still joked: "I'm so embarrassed, it doesn't matter what you said. You are a sister-in-law, and it's my duty to teach my sister-in-law."

Daiyu sat down on the soft couch, rubbed the soft cat, tilted her head and smiled: "What do you mean, I should also 'teach' you?"

"Hey, threesomes must have your teacher, you should be 'don't be ashamed to ask me' to me!" Nongyue shook her head very complacently, and raised her hand to call a maid, "order someone to find out what happened to the second princess Now, let the outside wait for the news all the time, and when the playing of the piano is over, the emperor's grandmother will have to call me!"

Daiyu asked her: "Just now, the queen mother asked us to go through the process first..." When I was summoned to go again, it couldn't be still a mess, right?

"Well, I have to figure it out. But palace banquets are all the same, just follow the rules."

"Then you still use such a big spider to scare people." Is this called compliance?

Nongyue stuck out her tongue: "I just don't want to see those people with 'ulterior motives'. You don't know that this palace banquet was instigated by those old women who were anxious to find a wife. They came in to eat and drink and comment on others Good quality, but the troubled Ben Gong is troubled, I really want to scare them!"

"A-again..." Daiyu was stunned, then felt a bit of a headache, and felt pain in her feet when she touched her legs.Last year's Peach Blossom Banquet and Yunhua Douli were all used to "match the daughter-in-law", but something happened; this time, the begging for cleverness was not sincere, and I don't know if I will offend the Weaver Girl in the sky again!

Thinking about it again, no wonder the Empress Dowager let herself touch the personalities of a few little county masters, so she knew that this was a meeting.

"Yeah, don't you think it's annoying enough?" Nongyue rubbed the cat depressedly, causing the pet to meow. The big tree attracts the wind, and those who fail will lose face, it is really difficult to advance and retreat... Those old women are not looking for a wife, and they will embarrass them to death before the daughter-in-law passes the door!"

"So that's what you're worried about." Daiyu sighed, with a worried look on her face, "Saiqiao is usually compared to needle-cut female celebrities. In the public, if it's a coincidence, it's good, if it's not a coincidence... "As Sister Shibao said in the past, it is a woman's duty to pinpoint female celebrities. If you don't do well, it is not a matter of shame. If the "notoriety" spreads, it may be difficult to get married in the future!

Not all ladies in the capital are good at female celebrities. There are two that Daiyu is very familiar with: Li Ying, the little county magistrate of Nan'an County Prince's Mansion, whose fingers are similar to the plush cat's claws in Nongyue's hands. The knots were like pimples, and both she and Mu Fangying were embarrassed to say "ugly", and just wanted to cover their eyes as if they didn't see it; there was even worse Lan Yiqian, the needle was delivered to her, It is estimated that it should be shot out as a hidden weapon!

Nongyue stretched out a finger to tease the cat, and the cat let its belly be teased, a cat's claw is just a cat's claw, how can there be slender fingers that are good at embroidery?Scratching and scratching, unable to scratch, she meowed anxiously, which amused Nongyue, twirled a piece of jerky and fed it, the cat turned over and put the snack in its mouth, bowed its head and ate it.There is no way, the owner is really noisy, and the pet has to learn to protect food.

While watching her tease the cat, Daiyu suggested: "Saiqiao can be played in a variety of ways. Apart from female celebrities, we might as well arrange something else. It is best to focus on differences, so that everyone can show their talents."

Nongyue rolled her eyes: "I also thought of it, in addition to women's reds, you can also add some spices, tea cooking, poetry fighting, riddle guessing, paper cutting... But there is no reason to add horseback riding and archery."

It turned out that Nongyue was just like her, worried about the worrying Lan girl.

"You said mixing incense, cooking tea..." Daiyu frowned, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked, "If I remember correctly, the lotus flowers in the imperial garden are blooming, and the lotus pods are also growing; Yes, there is a whole peach blossom grove next to the imperial garden, and it happens to be the time to harvest peaches."

"That's right, the peaches and lotus pods are ripe, want to eat? I'll send someone to pick some for you."

"Don't call it picking!" Daiyu hurriedly stopped her, and then said her thoughts with a smile, "Since we have decided to mix incense and make tea, as you said, it should be more novel and cute, so we might as well limit the questions."

"Limited questions?" Nong Yue was also aroused by her, she blinked, and then smiled nervously, "A talented woman is a talented woman, and she is very popular in poetry."

Daiyu didn't answer the teasing words, and continued: "For fragrance, you can use fruit aroma as the theme; for tea, lotus seeds are mainly used, and other flowers and trees are guests. It just so happens that there are fresh ones in the imperial garden, and you can put some on them at that time." The small table for group seats allows three or five people to sit around a table at random, and put needlework, paper-cutting, tea sets, incense plates, etc. on each table. , I don’t know how to hold a fragrant spoon, can’t I pick a peach or break a lotus pod?”

If it doesn't work, I will be responsible for stacking peaches on top of arhats. That's a job!

"Pfft, thank you for thinking it out!" Nongyue covered her stomach and rolled around on the couch twice, laughing uncontrollably, "It's a good idea, but please remember to remind Lan girl that picking peaches is the way to pick peaches, don't just pick them up." She's eaten, let alone jump up and run up the tree, or else I'll really let down the good intentions we both put into her!"

Daiyu pushed her: "Go and remind me."

"Why don't you go?" It's more convenient for you to live outside the palace.

"I'm afraid of being beaten."

"It's just that I don't give her peaches, so I won't beat you for such a small matter."

Daiyu put on a bitter face and sighed to herself: "According to what you said, those who have nothing to do to protect the media and criticize others are the most abominable people, but I want to be this villain. "

Nong Yue rolled her eyes and understood: "Emperor Tai|Grandmother wants to help Lan Yatou find someone else."

Daiyu nodded: "It also includes County Lords Mu and County Leader Li. The Empress Dowager ordered us to take advantage of the Qiqiao palace banquet to find out more about their preferences so that we can find a suitable one."

"It's still about me..." Nongyue twitched the corners of her mouth, really wondering if her complaint just now counted as a slap in the face, "No, it's not enough for us to sigh, we have to find ways to find out King Dongping, King Nan'an and the others; besides, Lan Yatou is a bit special."

"How special?"

"Duke Zhen wants to recruit his grandson-in-law and wants someone to marry him, so the family status cannot be too high, and it is difficult to find a son-in-law."

"It's actually like this..." Daiyu was worried. The people selected in Aunt Roulan's booklet were based on the standards of a county horse captain.

Nongyue comforted her, but she was also lazy: "Emperor Tai|Grandmother just wants us to find out the thoughts of a few girls, and it's still far away to pick a man!"

Just as Daiyu was about to say something, the little princess suddenly smiled narrowly: "However, if you want to 'take care' more, the Empress Dowager|Grandma will definitely be more than happy; and for you, this is a good opportunity to show you kindness , you can also complain."

Daiyu glanced at her, and said bluntly: "Don't 'judging others by yourself'." Isn't it just for networking?Her Royal Highness, who is about to get married at the end of the year, has to hand over the palace power, but it is easier to reach out.

Nongyue was exposed by her, just about to jump up and scratch someone, when Daiyu said quietly: "But if Your Highness wants to 'take care' more, I too, couldn't be happier."

Nongyue narrowed her eyes, that is to say, she will help a little bit?

Glancing at each other, Qingmei and Qingmei, who have been sour with each other for many years, have a tacit understanding.

Continuing with the previous topic, Nongyue flirted again: "Hey, what I said about 'complaint' is true, such as that Mu Fangying, you really don't want to take the opportunity to play tricks?"

Daiyu was puzzled: "I have no enmity with her, so why play tricks on her? Last time I was in the posthouse, thanks to her helping me cover up."

Nongyue joked with a smile: "You are so generous, but Xiao has missed your fiancé."

Daiyu let out a "hum"—you thought everyone was like you, and you must be repaid with kindness. Repaying grievances with kindness is the measure of a lady, and a prime minister can hold a boat in his belly.

Since the future princess is so generous and intends to help her, Her Royal Highness might as well mention something: "I don't know what trouble playing the piano caused, but it is impossible for the imperial grandmother to prevent her from participating in the palace banquet." Last year I just missed the New Year's banquet, and this time I didn't show up. Others think that the second princess is really disgusted, "It's true that she provoked the father, and she can't escape the dozens or hundreds of "Female Virtue" .The Chinese Valentine's Day is coming, she must not be able to finish copying, you are a sister-in-law, you have to take pity on my sister-in-law."

Daiyu was stunned for a moment, did she ask her to copy the book for the second princess?

"Copy ten copies, and it's enough to be virtuous." With Nongqin's personality, he may not appreciate it, but it's just for others to see.

Daiyu deliberately asked back: "You don't copy?" Don't you want to act like a sister?

Nong Yue had already settled the matter: "You are the most kind, and you will definitely copy ten copies for me. Anyway, you helped me with my homework when I was young, and you can imitate my handwriting seven or eight points."

Sure enough, people are kind and bullied, this little princess is sure to eat her!

Nongyue saw that she was gnashing her teeth as if she was about to scratch her, so she quickly jumped off the soft couch: "It's been a while, should I ask? What's wrong with Nongqin girl..."

The palace man who inquired about the news waited outside for a long time, and finally waited for the princess to ask questions, and hurried in.

It turned out that the matter of Yun Luzhen a while ago caused the embarrassment between His Majesty the Emperor and the second princess, and it has not been relieved until now. Nongqin has the kind of personality that becomes more and more resilient when pressed. I wanted to "go back to my natal family" and wanted to go back to my biological mother, my aunt, and the two concubines Li Shu's natal family to live for a while, "so as not to stay in the palace every day and hinder my father's eyes."

Yun Shuo lost his temper again, and when he learned that Nongqin had been practicing needlework for Qiqiao, he got angry and ordered him to stop again.Nongqin was so wronged that he rushed to Empress He and cried loudly. Empress He personally told her son and granddaughter that she was still punished by copying books, but she could no longer be absent from the palace banquet.The emperor can punish his daughter, but he can't let others think that the daughter is easy to do.

Ordinary "going back to her mother's house" will not cause much trouble, the rules of women in this dynasty are not rigid, and there is Nongyue, who relies on herself to be "a family" all the time, running outside the palace all day is heartbreaking Princess.Therefore, the palace people deliberately inquired in detail, and only then did they understand that Concubine Li Shu's natal family had three nephews from the Li family, the oldest was 14 years old, and the youngest was nine years old-this is to learn how to play the moon and climb up the "baby relatives" Trick!

What angered His Majesty the most was that, knowing that it was a trick, the silly girl Nongqin actually drilled into it, just to get angry!

The author has something to say: Yun Shuo: Damn it, plotting against my daughter, you're going to die!

Meow: So don't do it anymore, be careful that your daughter will be killed by you...
