The Jade of the Red Chamber

Weeping Willow gently delivered the ice-cold seasonal fruits, and stood aside quietly listening to the three girls talking. She liked this time the most, and there was always a feeling of moistening her heart.

Zhenyu picked up a piece of watermelon and handed it to Xiao Fuyu: "It's too cold, don't eat more." The little baby nodded obediently.

Daiyu only used a small bunch of purple grapes and put it down, Zhenyu nodded when she saw it, and said with a smile: "Our house is basically repaired, we just wait for a few days when it gets cooler and we will move back home! "

Both Daiyu and Fuyu said happily, "It's great that we can go back to our own home!"

Xiao Fuyu immediately put down the melon in her hand, shaking her brother's sleeve with her little claws, and said: "Then shall we go back now? When will Daddy come?"

"It's too hot to move now, Fuyu will wait a little longer, we'll go back home soon." Zhenyu gently squeezed her younger brother's little hand, and said with a smile: "Father won't come to Beijing for now, He is busy with affairs there, and he may be able to go to Beijing next spring to report on his work, and my father's letter will arrive in two days."

When Fuyu heard about it, she nodded obediently and went to eat melons.But Daiyu was a little worried, because she asked: "Brother, it's great that we can live at home, but I'm afraid that the old lady won't like it... Maybe she will compare things with Aunt Xue's home."

Zhenyu said: "What Dai'er said is that our family is different from the Xue family after all. My father is a second-rank official, and I also have fame. There is no reason to live in my grandfather's house. Doesn’t look good in front of your colleagues? Let’s talk slowly, and the old lady must always agree!” So ​​what if you don’t want to, why don’t you let people go back to your home? !

Daiyu was wiping little Fuyu's hands with a wet handkerchief when the servant girl Yiyun came in and said, "Girl, Manager Zhou's family is here."

What are you doing here now?Daiyu said, "Please hurry up."

Zhou Rui's family lifted the curtain lightly and entered, and immediately felt a burst of cool air to drive away the heat. I saw Lin Daiyu wearing a moon-white wide-sleeved silk dress, with a loose bun on her hair, talking to the two masters of the Lin family. .

Seeing her come in, Daiyu smiled and said, "Sister Zhou, sit down." "Yixue serves tea."

Zhou Rui's family also hurriedly asked with a smile, "Hello, Miss." On one side, the little girl sat on the bed and said with a smile, "My aunt asked me to send flowers and bring them to the girl."

When Zhenyu heard about it, she guessed it was the time when the Xue family sent the palace flowers, which is not surprising. Although many things have changed because of him as a visitor from another world, human nature cannot be changed. People from the Xue family and the Jia family It is also natural that the general context of doing things has not changed.

Zhen Yuyin asked: "How is my aunt?" Zhou Rui's family pushed back with a smile: "Okay, my aunt is very good."

Weeping Willow took it, and when I opened the box to see, it turned out to be two fake flowers made of palace-made yarn. Daiyu took a look at her hand and said, "Sister Zhou will thank Aunt Xue for me."

Weeping Willow fiddled with it a few times, and asked with a smile, "Is it for our girl alone, or for all the other girls?"

Zhou Rui's family said: "Everyone has it, these two belong to the girl."

By chance, let Changge hear it, Changge has always been snarky, because he said outside: "Others will pick the rest and give it to us."

Weeping Willow scolded with a smile: "Little Hoof, what are you talking about!"

Wei Wei from Zhou Rui's family was a little uncomfortable, seeing that the weeping willow had been taken away, she hurriedly got up and resigned.

Fang walked out of the courtyard, and the weeping willow behind him shouted: "Sister-in-law Zhou, wait!" He walked over quickly, stuffed a purse for Zhou Rui's family, and said with a smile: "Our girl gave it to Sister-in-law Zhou, and sister-in-law took it for some herbal tea." Fruit, it’s also good to go to get rid of the summer heat.”

Zhou Rui's family was overjoyed and hurriedly expressed their thanks.

Weeping Liu handed the box just now to Zhou Rui's family. Zhou Rui's family was suspicious: "This...?"

Weeping Willow smiled and said: "This is the hairpin that our girl gave to all the girls. I packed it out a long time ago. Today, I just followed my sister-in-law's way and sent it to all the girls. Good sister-in-law, please help me."

Zhou Rui's family smiled and said: "That's right, it's not worth the extra trip for you guys who are exposed to the sun, I just happened to take them there."

Weeping Willow stuffed another gilt ring, "I thank my sister-in-law for this." Zhou Rui's family thanked her repeatedly.

Opening the box again, there are a row of turquoise jade hairpins inside, very delicate, but each has its own pattern, Weeping Willow pointed and smiled: "Last time at the old lady's place, everyone praised the hairpins that our uncle gave to the girl. The sisters like it, and Teteyang ordered it newly. The vegetarian orchid is for the eldest grandma, the phoenix flower is for the second grandma Lian, the second girl likes water chestnut flowers, Miss Xue is a stunning peony, and the third girl loves roses the most "Fourth miss, dear lotus, these annoying sisters-in-law Zhou will take them over. There is also Miss Shi's begonia hairpin, our girl will keep it for her first, and give it to her when she comes."

Zhou Rui's family was speechless, thinking that this Miss Lin is so generous and careful, but thinking that he usually underestimated her, the smile on his face couldn't help but become brighter: "Yes, I remember, Miss Lin I will take care of everything properly."

At that time, Sister Feng and Li Wan had been delivered.

Then I went to the little mansion behind Mrs. Wang's main room. Sanchun saw her turn back and asked, "What are you doing here again, old man? It's such a hot day, be careful about heatstroke."

Zhou Rui's family opened the flower box, explained the reason, and all three stood up to express their thanks. Xichun took the flower hairpin and looked at it carefully. , I like the lotus in front of the Buddha the most."

Tanchun laughed and said, "What's the matter today? Qi Qi sent these? But it's cheaper for us."...

Zhou Rui's family took the box to Pear Fragrance Garden. Mrs. Wang was gossiping with Aunt Xue today. She talked to Mrs. Wang back and forth to get such an errand. No matter how many rewards I get from Miss Bao, I can't help but step up a little bit and I don't think it's too hot.

After entering the house, Aunt Xue said: "Have they all been sent?" Zhou Rui's family apologized and said with a smile: "Sent, the two grandmas and all the girls said thank you, aunt! Coincidentally, Miss Lin has hairpins to send to you." Girl Bao, please entrust me to bring it."

Aunt Xue said, "Let me have a look."

Zhou Rui's family hurriedly handed over the box. Aunt Xue opened it and saw that it was a jade hairpin carved with peonies carved in turquoise. Are there any girls?"

"Every girl has them, but Miss Lin has already divided them up when she brought them. She said that the national beauty of this peony can match Miss Bao." Zhou Rui's family hit a nail with Changge, and now they have to make it clear.

Aunt Xue listened, but said nothing.

Baochai came over and took a look at the hairpin, still with a dignified smile on his face: "What a delicate jade hairpin, Sister Lin is so polite, but it's just two silk flowers, and she returned it to Lilai, and the calculation is too clear gone."

Zhou Rui's family saw that Xue Baochai turned Miss Lin's affection for the sisters into a gift with a touch of her lips, and gave her a well-calculated name. She felt a little strange, and saw her face like a gentle big sister. The younger sister who did the wrong thing had a tolerant and helpless expression, and couldn't help shivering, lowering her head and not daring to look into her eyes.

Mrs. Wang was very satisfied with Xue Baochai's words and deeds: "This Lin girl is the most petty, since she gave you this hairpin, you just take it, don't worry about other things." She said to Aunt Xue: "My favorite is Baochai The girl is generous and steady."

Aunt Xue said with a smile: "My sister doesn't know, Bao girl is weird, she never loves these flowers and fans."

Mrs. Wang praised: "This is how our daughter behaves. Why do you dress so expensively all day long!"

Zhou Rui's family saw that Mrs. Wang had nothing to say, and they were about to withdraw, but Mrs. Wang suddenly said, "Stop, I have something to ask you, what was Miss Lin doing when you went?"

Zhou Rui's family quickly replied with a smile: "I didn't do anything, I just chatted with the two masters of the Lin family."

Mrs. Wang heard about it, and said to Aunt Xue: "This girl Lin, who usually does not move the horizontal needle or twist the vertical needle, is delicate." Picking up the handkerchief and saving her forehead, she looked at the ice basin in the corner of the room and said suddenly. : "Such a hot day has never happened in a few years."

Aunt Xue smiled and said, "That's right, we originally had a lot of ice in our ice shop, but this day it's too hot and there are many people begging to buy it, so we sold a lot of it." Looking at Mrs. Wang's face, He said again: "I left some for home use. If my sister's place is not enough, I can give you some more."

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Where is it that I want it? It turns out that Baoyu was hurt this time and couldn't bear the heat. The mansion is the same as storing ice in previous years, but there are so many expenses."

Aunt Xue thought that Baoyu's beating had something to do with Xue Pan, so she was a little embarrassed, so she ordered someone to send a piece of ice from the ice mirror to the ice cellar in the inner courtyard.

Baochai's eyes moved slightly, and she looked at Zhou Rui's family with a smile and asked, "Sister Zhou came from Sister Lin, does my sister still have ice?"

Zhou Rui's family was a little uncomfortable, nana said: "I didn't look carefully, there are two basins of ice in a trance." Baochai smiled and said: "Then I feel relieved, Sister Lin is weak and afraid of heat, but now ice is getting harder and harder to buy. , I don’t want big brother Lin to have such good skills.”

Mrs. Wang's eyeballs moved slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.

Seeing that they had nothing to say, Zhou Rui's family hurriedly withdrew.

Mrs. Wang's side is full of calculations, and Shui Yang's side is full of depression. The protagonists on both sides are the Lin family.

Since that day when Zhenyu pushed the appointment and Shuiyang delivered the ice, Shuiyang has never seen him again.

If he didn't see Shui Yang, he was willing at first. The more explicit dreams that appeared from time to time these days made him feel confused. He thought at least to avoid and think about it first, but after a day or two, Shui Yang was not only quiet. I didn't bother to organize my thoughts, but the more I organized, the more I wanted to see the boy, and the more I wanted to see him, the more I couldn't see him... The servants of Prince Jing's Mansion, headed by Qin Shulai, absolutely felt the pain and suffering, except for Chen, who was cheerful all day long. steward.

Qin Shulai's face was full of bullshit, and he roared in his heart, "Oh my god, Master Zhen, come here quickly!"

During dinner, Shui Yang stared at the two dishes on the table, his face was cloudy and uncertain. One of the dishes was a very common bitter gourd. Bitter gourd is common but has never been served in such a big "pot". This is just Daoqing How about the side dishes!A half-drawn tortoise shell and an unidentified strip could be faintly seen in another ink-colored flower soup pot, emitting a faint medicinal smell.

Manager Chen looked at the little master with a smile, thinking which one would the little master Xiaobao eat?He diligently filled a bowl of tonic soup, pushed the soup bowl and bitter gourd towards Shui Yang, and continued to stare with a smile on his face.

Shui Yang's face turned half black, where did this come from?Picking up the ivory chopsticks on the maid's tray, the maid hurriedly withdrew, the prince didn't like to be served by others.

Shui Yang paused, and stuffed a piece of bitter gourd into his mouth expressionlessly. From the corner of his eye, he looked at Uncle Chen as if I understood, and almost choked.

Manager Chen nodded, and walked away lightly, thinking as he walked, although he was at a loss in his life, he still knew about the man.Little Master Xiaobao has been extremely irritable these days, and yesterday he kicked out a court lady who trespassed and invited pets. Either she is dying or she has someone in her heart who wants to be dissatisfied. Judging by her appearance today, she is the second type!

Then he can rest assured, men, there will always be times like this.He doesn't care what kind of mistress, as long as Xiaobao marries someone he likes, the two of them will be happy together for a lifetime!Don't be like Dabao, marrying a lot of people, but none of them are really rare, Mr. Chen curled his lips.Dabao is the nickname he gave Shui Zhan. When it was desirable, Shui Zhan was too old to accept it, so he could only call it that in his heart.

Hmm, I seem to have forgotten to tell Xiaobao that the pot of wine was made with tiger penis?Mr. Chen paused his steps, shook his head and continued to walk forward, eating so many bitter gourds and drinking some tiger penis wine is nothing, it's to revitalize the blood.

In the living room, the watery jade cup is smacking its lips. The taste of this wine is a bit strange?The dishes on the table are neat and tidy, only a plate of bitter gourd moved a chopstick.

At night, Shui Yang dreamed again, different from before, this time there were more plots.

In the dream, Zhenyu held a woman's hand, smiled and said to him: "I'm getting married, this is my beloved..." Getting married... beloved... Shui Yang seems to be able to feel herself in the dream Despair, anger, sadness... Feelings, now that I think about it, I want to kill that woman immediately!

Shui Yang sat on the bed and rubbed his forehead, then?After that, Shui Yang in the dream exploded instantly when he heard this, and caught Zhenyu like this and that... Then he woke up, woke up...

Shui Yang looked at the obscene clothes he had set up, and the strong murderous aura of the woman who couldn't see the face clearly in his heart, and finally realized that he was attracted to Zhenyu, he fell in love with it or... Falling in love with the child you grew up with?Maybe, I fell in love with it a long time ago.

Thinking of Zhenyu's mind as slow as a tortoise and his habit of being more and more reckless towards him, he felt so helpless. There is a long way to go if he wants to make the boy fall in love with him.

Regardless of the lower body of his spirit, Shui Yang began to plan the journey of boiling the frog in warm water to trick the young Zhenyu into his hands.Give up or struggle?From the moment he understood what he wanted, he never hesitated. Shui Yang knew that he was selfish and stubborn, but he was just such a person.There are really not many things in this world that he cares about. It is so rare for him to be able to really like someone and this person is worthy of liking. Besides, he is also confident that he can protect the young man well no matter what. If he asks for the young man's life, he will naturally pay him back !

Seeing too much strife in the royal family, the mother and concubine died early because of this, and the so-called father and emperor failed to make them feel a little affection, and the two brothers Shui Zhan and Shui Yang developed from this are very indifferent, although it is rumored that King Jingze is cold-hearted The cold face is actually the smiling Shui Zhan, especially the smiling Shui Zhan. You can understand from his lukewarm attitude towards his concubines and his attitude of treating his son as if he doesn't care.It's ridiculous that there are countless high-ranking ladies who squeezed their heads into the palace, dreaming that they are different in the eyes of the emperor... (Cold uncle wow~)

Shui Yang naturally accepted that he had no heirs, otherwise, could he still adopt his brother's sons? Anyway, he has so many sons, Shui Yang thought very unkindly.

Lin Zhenyu from Jia's mansion and Shui Zhan from the palace sneezed at the same time and touched their necks. Who was talking about him?Xiao Fuyu in Lin Zhenyu's arms touched her brother worriedly, did she catch a cold?The palace servants standing by His Highness Zichen hurriedly lowered their heads when they heard this, and moved a little to the side.
