[Red Mansions] Everyone is a fan of Daiyu

But a few days after Daiyu came back, there was another happy event.During the period when Jia Amnesty was on duty in the palace, the Emperor liked him very much.The emperor also affirmed his ability, so he was promoted to an official position and became the secretary of the household department.Of course, in this matter, it must not be the simple reason why Jia She recruited the emperor to like him, it was due to Yuan Chun's contribution.

The whole family was overjoyed, and Daiyu was also very happy for her uncle.Mrs. Wang simply prepared a gift and asked Daiyu to take it to congratulate her.Daiyu was like Jia She's daughter, so naturally she didn't need to make such preparations to congratulate her, it was just to convey a message for Mrs. Wang.Jia Amnesty doesn't have a principal wife, who can Madam Wang congratulate?

Daiyu gave the things to Jia Amnesty and said, "Eldest Uncle, Second Aunt asked me to bring it to you."

Jia Amnesty accepted the gift and said with a smile, "She really has a heart." Then he pulled Daiyu over and said, "I haven't been home for a long time, and now I'm back, come to play chess with Uncle."

Daiyu sat down on the kang, and chatted with Jia Amnesty while playing chess.Jia Amnesty left her behind, playing chess is fake, chatting is real.He dropped a chess piece and said, "Yu'er, how is your concubine's family doing?"

"The concubine personally invited her over, what's wrong with that?" Daiyu replied, feeling a little flustered in her heart.She didn't know what was wrong, but when she mentioned something related to the Beijing Palace, she immediately thought of Shui Rong.

Jia Amnesty smiled, and seemed to say quite unintentionally: "After the new year, Yu'er is thirteen, and she can find someone else. If it is later, good people will be picked away."

Daiyu blushed, "Why does uncle worry about me? He doesn't seem like a high-ranking official."

Jia Amnesty sat up straight, "Then tell uncle, what does it look like to be a high official?"

Father's love has always been deep and unrevealed, and in such an era, not many men would spend a lot of thought on chores in the inner courtyard.Daiyu just compared Jia She's behavior based on this cognition, and after thinking about it, she felt that she really likes the uncle she is now, so she just said: "The uncle is like a high-ranking official, and he belongs to the Gu family. Good officer."

Jia Amnesty laughed out loud, really happy.

In the evening Jia Amnesty kept Daiyu for dinner again before sending her back home.Only after sending her back to Mrs. Wang did she come back.The family has received a lot of presents in the past few days, and I am quite proud of seeing them.It's just that he is such a big man who is already a little bit awesome, so it doesn't matter if he hasn't seen anything.

After sweeping his eyes, he landed on the small box Mrs. Wang asked Daiyu to bring.Still very curious about this thing.It's strange for a woman like Mrs. Wang to give him something.He picked up the box, turned it upside down, and speculated: "It can't be a bomb, right?" After that, he denied himself and shook his head, "Is it a sachet? Open it and have a look."

As soon as the box was opened... Jia She didn't know what to say, there was nothing inside, only a piece of folded paper.Bai was pleasantly surprised, he sighed and reached out to take out the paper, shaking it away.So, I saw what was written on the paper: "Hahaha, if you really believe that I will give you something, you are too naive. Nothing else, just about Daiyu's marriage, see you at the usual place tomorrow afternoon."

Jia Amnesty looked at it, pouted his mouth, "You started asking me out?" Why was he still a little excited?

The next day, I went to the East Courtyard as scheduled.Mrs. Wang told Jia Amnesty everything that happened when she entered the palace, and then speculated: "I think Daiyu fell in love with that prince, but it's just that she can't break through the psychological barriers of more than ten years of etiquette. Say yes directly."

"Prince Beijing likes Daiyu, and the concubine's love is also on the surface. Daiyu also likes the prince, and she won't suffer a small loss when she marries. Then this matter, just deal with it. First put The marriage is settled, and the mourning period will be over in two years, and the wedding will be done." Hearing Mrs. Wang's words, Jia Amnesty already agreed with it [-] times in his heart.He already had a good impression of Shui Rong, since the concubine, who is a mother-in-law, also likes Daiyu so much, why not seize this fate?

Mrs. Wang hesitated and remained silent.Jia Amnesty was puzzled, "Is there any obstacle?"

"You/mother... you/mother... bah... the obstacles on the old lady's side."

"The old lady made a statement?"

Mrs. Wang shook her head, "No, how dare I talk to her about this matter? What else can I intervene in at home? Looking for me, he didn't help me at all. I really don't know whether to go undercover for real, or to dump me for profit."

Speaking of this incident, Mrs. Wang was still very upset.

Jia She patted her on the shoulder and said comfortingly, "It's okay, I'll tell the old lady about it."

Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.But Jia She suddenly bared his teeth and said, "Just say you don't know how to wear it. It's not good to wear it. It must be Mrs. Wang. If you say you wear Mrs. Xing, I will take you to eat and drink spicy food. You are the boss of the family." , Daiyu is our child, neither father nor mother is missing."

Mrs. Wang had a black line on her forehead, she gritted her teeth sullenly and said, "If you talk nonsense again, be careful that I will blow your head off."

Jia She shrugged and shut up.

But before Jia Amnesty had time to tell Jia's mother about it, Grandma Liu, who had been at home last year, came back with a board.Daiyu, a group of sisters and Baoyu are all in Jiamu's room at this time.When Jia Mu heard about Grandma Liu, she only said that she was thinking of talking to an ancient old man, so she asked Grandma Liu to come and see her.So, everyone waited in the house.

While talking, I saw Ping'er leading Grandma Liu in.When Grandma Liu saw Jia Mu, she hurried up to laugh with her, wished her a few blessings, and said, "Good morning, old birthday star." Jia Mu also bowed to say hello, and ordered Zhou Rui's family to bring a chair and sit down.

That board is still timid and doesn't know how to greet.Jia Mu said, "Old relative, how old are you this year?"

Grandma Liu hurriedly stood up and replied, "I'm 75 this year."

Jia's mother said to everyone: "I'm still so healthy at such an old age. I'm several years older than me. I don't know why I can't move at this age." Grandma Liu laughed and said: "We are born to suffer. , the old lady was born to enjoy the blessings. If we are like this, there will be no one to do those farm jobs."

Mother Jia said, "Are your eyes and teeth okay?" Grandma Liu said, "Everything is fine, it's just that the molar on the left side has moved this year."

Jia Mu said: "I'm old, useless, my eyes are blurred, my ears are deaf, and my memory is gone. I don't remember you old relatives. When relatives come, I'm afraid people will laugh at me. I don’t know, but I can chew and eat a few bites, take a nap, and laugh with these grandchildren when I’m bored.”

Grandma Liu said with a smile, "it's the old lady's blessing. We can't do it if we think about it." Mother Jia said, "what a blessing, it's just an old waste." Everyone laughed.

Such gossip continued until the evening, when Sister Feng asked someone to come over and invite Grandma Liu to dinner.Sister Feng knew that Mother Jia liked to talk to the old man, so she sent her over after dinner.Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun all dispersed, but Daiyu was forced to stay and talk together by Jiamu.

Because Baoyu Xiangyun lived with Jia's mother, he naturally stayed here.Baoyu is very happy in her heart, he is favored by Jiamu, and Mrs. Wang is not around, so she has no scruples and always likes to join Daiyu's side.

And this Grandma Liu is also very old, so she knows a lot of nonsense and myths.So, sitting in front of Jia Mu's couch, I thought about it for a while and said.Baoyu, Daiyu, and Xiangyun had never heard of it before, so they were stunned and engrossed.As we talked, we began to talk about some fairy tales. After talking about Liang Zhu, we also talked about stories about the Seven Fairies, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

There is something strange about this matter. Although the stories told by Grandma Liu are fairy tales, they are about love after all.Not only did Jia's mother not scold her for talking nonsense, she didn't stop her from talking, but she still listened with gusto.

At this moment, Zi Ping'er also saw that it was getting late, so he came to find Grandma Liu and arranged for her to rest.Unexpectedly, when I came here, I saw a group of people talking lively, so I had to stand silently and listen to it.Yuanyang smiled at her, and she smiled back.

After Grandma Liu finished telling a lot of stories, Mother Jia moved her chair when she got tired of one posture, then looked at Grandma Liu and said, "See if my grandson and granddaughter are comparable to the people in your stories? No?" Can you be called a man and a woman?" Jia Mu said, her eyes glanced at Baoyu and Daiyu.

Grandma Liu understood, smiled attentively and said: "They are much more beautiful than the people in my stories. I didn't come here. I met girls and men. I really don't know that there are such beautiful and beautiful people in this world. Second master Bao and Lin With a girl like this, how can I find a third one?"

Mother Jia smiled with satisfaction, and continued: "Why don't you just ask you to do this good deed and let you be the matchmaker, do you think it's okay?"

Grandma Liu was stunned in disbelief. It was too honorable to ask her to be a matchmaker.She looked at Baoyu, and then at Daiyu, "A matchmaker between Master Bao and Miss Lin? The old lady really gave me such a good job for nothing. Even without me, this job can be done safely."

"I said the same thing. I just thought that nights would be full of dreams. It would be better to make an appointment earlier, so that you don't need to bother too much in the future. It won't be too late to get married after Miss Lin passes the filial piety period."

When Grandma Liu saw what Jia Mu said, she said, "It seems that the old lady really likes you two, otherwise you can't be in such a hurry."

Mother Jia still had a gentle face, and said with a smile: "You don't know the benefits of my granddaughter. I'm afraid I will be snatched away by others. If someone else's life is good, it's fine. If it's not good, how can I not worry about it?" Why don't you make a decision earlier and stay by my side, no one can bully you."

"The old lady is right."

Mother Jia and Grandma Liu hit it off and chatted, but the others had already had their own thoughts and guesses.There was no shame on Daiyu's face, but her heart seemed to have fallen into a hole in the ice.She lowered her eyelids and moved her eyes lightly. What does her grandmother mean?No matter how sudden, she and Baoyu got together and said it out.

Baoyu was naturally full of astonishment and satisfaction, and suddenly rejoiced, saying: "Old ancestor, is it true?"

"When have I ever lied to you?" Mother Jia looked at Jia Baoyu dotingly.

"Grandmother..." Daiyu rubbed her sleeves, feeling uneasy in her heart, and it took her a long time to make a small sound.She made an agreement with Mrs. Wang that she would never put the sovereignty over her marriage in other people's hands.

The author has something to say: I received a call from my mother at noon the day before yesterday, and after returning home yesterday, my grandpa’s funeral is next, because you comforted me with the word "worrying mulberry", and I was very moved. .
