The Warm Jade of the Red Chamber

The Zhuangzi sent by Daiyu was her dowry back then. It has nothing to do with the palace, and it is not eye-catching. It's strange, but Daiyu specially picked a nanny to accompany Li Lin and Xichun, and others would not say much because of the sake of Prince Chengke's residence.

Both Li Lin and Xichun felt a lot more relaxed. After all, in Jia's house, even if they avoided people and only nested in their own one-acre land, there was a lot of right and wrong.Now in Zhuangzi, although it is a strange place, the personnel affairs are very simple, there are not many servants, and there are mothers in charge of general affairs, and they also learn from them from time to time, so there is nothing to worry about for a while things happen.

On the day Li Lin left Beijing, Li Ran only saw her off halfway, and hurried to the Chanwei Building, saying that the Chanwei Building had invited an eminent monk from Mount Wutai to give a lecture, and he rushed to listen to the teachings.

The relationship between siblings is so cold, Li Lin finally gave up on Li Ran, this younger brother should not be a man of the world, if he can convert to Buddhism, he can have a good death.In fact, if you think about it carefully, if Li Ran is a strong, promising person who can stand up and establish a family, his situation will probably be several times worse than hers. down him.

It's not that Li Lin has never thought about negotiating terms with the Jia family. Her request is not high, and she doesn't want to return to the Li family. The Jia family has taken such a big advantage, and she should agree to this.

But after deep thought, there was still no action after all.

Because, although the Li family is not as good as the Jia family, they are not from a poor family. The only pair of children live in a small village. Anyone with a brain can guess that the Jia family cheated the Li family.Instead of keeping Li Lin to cause subsequent uncontrollable changes, Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang might rather kill all unstable factors in the cradle.

Anyway, Li Ran, the true heir of the Li family, was still alive and well, and even if the girl died, no one would say that the Jia family was greedy for their wealth.And Li Ran is the man who established the family at the head of the Li family and carried on the family line. To murder him is not as easy as killing Li Lin. Li Lin was raised in the deep boudoir of the Jia family. No need to talk to anyone.

Therefore, while Jia Mu and the others quietly murdered Li Lin in the inner house, they deliberately indulged Li Ran to run to the Chanwei Building every day, allowing him to become obsessed with Buddhism and Taoism without persuading him. Where did the money go?What's more, Jia Baoyu was going with Li Ran, Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang were not worried that Jia Baoyu would see through the world, he was so greedy for women's sex, how could he be willing to go home and quit sex?In this way, even if someone suspects that the Jia family deliberately led Li Ran to become a monk in the future, such doubts will not hold water.

It was precisely because of this that Li Lin didn't go directly to Jia's mother to negotiate terms, but seized the rare opportunity to ask Daiyu.

This request finally solved her predicament. Although Daiyu would not do her best to help her get the Li family property back, she could not force it. After all, Daiyu did not have the obligation to confront the Jia family for her. But anyway, she can live a good life to see how the Jia family maintains their wealth by sucking the blood of others, and see what kind of Jia Baoyu, who is believed by Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang to have great fortune in the future, can spell it out. Future!What good luck did Jia Yuanchun, who was born on the first day of the Lunar New Year, get in the end?However, they are still not vigilant, and they still think that Jia Baoyu is born extraordinary!

Sending off Li Lin and Xichun did not have much impact on Daiyu's life, after all, these two cousins ​​were not very familiar and close to her.

The weather was fine that day, with only a gentle breeze. Zhuang Lanhong has been there for three months. Although it is still soft, it is no longer so soft that people dare not even touch it. Zhuang Yu rarely rests at home, so he proposed The family went to the waterside pavilion to bask in the sun and enjoy the scenery.

In this situation, the twins must join in the fun. They are like two little king kong, guarding Zhuang Lanhong's small shaker from left to right.

Daiyu's chess, calligraphy and calligraphy are all good. At the moment, burning incense and playing the piano, not only the three brothers Zhuang Yu are listening to the music, but also the servants around are fascinated, but there is always someone who is destined to spoil the atmosphere.

"Ahhh..." Zhuang Lanhong was dissatisfied, why did everyone ignore her?

Zhuang Lanhong was lying in her exclusive cradle, surrounded by a cloth fence, so that she could see the sun but not be blown by the wind, listening to the music, the milk doll who didn't know how to appreciate it was very excited, He kicked his legs and yelled "ahhhhh".

The three Zhuang Yu brothers are more active than quiet. Although they think Daiyu plays the piano very well, they can't tell how good it is. Seeing Zhuang Lan now, "ahhhhhhhhh "Ah", he yelled, and immediately lost his attention, the three heads, one big, two small, all moved to the top of Zhuang Lanhong's cradle, blocking the narrow sky that belonged to the milk baby.

But Xiao Lanxuan was not annoyed, looked at the three heads, clapped her hands and kicked her legs and laughed, drooling from the smile.

Zhuang Yu had always looked like a foolish father in front of Xiao Lanhong. Seeing his daughter was young, he couldn't help but show his white teeth, and made a "la la la" grimace at her.

Seeing Zhuang Yu's childish appearance, the twins looked down on them very much, but they were not much better. The two argued, "Little niece, I am your Uncle Xi, and I am your Uncle Xi."

This nondescript title is probably only available in Prince Chengke's Mansion, because the twins refuse to discuss the order, so it is doomed that Xiaolan will not have "second uncle" and "third uncle".

Daiyu saw the attention of the three brothers being taken away by the youngest daughter at once, but she was not annoyed at all, her hands kept on working, but her tone became more and more cheerful, just like the sunshine jumping on the lake, bright and bright. warmth.

Over there, Zhuang Yu started to play tricks on his younger brother again, saying: "Uncle Xi, Uncle Hu, you look weird, you will be laughed at if you call me that! Why don't you do it like this, from today on, you guys will talk to each other every half a month. Measure your height once, whoever is a little taller will be the big uncle, and the short one will be the youngest uncle, how about it?"

Daiyu listened, her fingers trembled, and she broke a note. She looked at Zhuang Yu helplessly. This person's hobbies haven't changed much since he was a child. He bullied Lin Ji when he was young, and now he bullies his younger brother. Good looking daughter will not be bullied.

And the twins have been bullied by Zhuang Yu for so long, but when they encounter this kind of competition, they always fail to learn well. They didn't notice the narrowness in Zhuang Yu's eyes at all. They just looked at each other, and their fighting spirit was ignited. , both nodded, and said: "Okay, that's it! I will definitely be the uncle."

"I'm the uncle!"

"I'm the!"

"I'm the!"

The two young ones were blushing, and even wished to pull Xiao Lanhong up for notarization. Zhuang Yu quickly put on a serious look, and said, "Okay, okay, don't argue, it's better to just fight over and over again." Let’s measure it, the tall one should be the uncle, and the short one should not be foolish.”

"Measure as much as you can!" They all said in unison.

Daiyu couldn't play the piano anymore, and looked at her husband with embarrassment as he measured the height of the two younger uncles in a serious manner, and when they were not paying attention, he turned his head and made strange faces at Xiaolan, which made Xiaolan giggle .

The twins Zhuang Yan and Zhuang Yan actually look very similar, not only their looks, but also their height and weight are similar, but they will be a little bit surprised. The final result is that Zhuang Yan is taller than Zhuang Yan Half a fingernail is not a big advantage, but it is enough to make the little guy's tail go up to the sky.

After Zhuang Yan got the result, he rushed to Xiao Lanhong's cradle and said, "Little niece, I am your uncle. Remember, I am your uncle, not your little uncle."

Although Zhuang Xuan was disappointed, he didn't want to bet and admit defeat. He wouldn't be foolish, so he also climbed to the side of Xiao Lan's cradle and said, "Little niece, I'm your little uncle, but I'll only be your baby boy for half a month." Oh, little uncle, when I measure my height next time, I will definitely be taller than Yan'er, and I will be a big uncle by then."

Zhuang Yan said anxiously: "I won't be caught up by you!"

Daiyu couldn't help butting her forehead, Xiaolan can't even recognize anyone now, let alone how to distinguish the twin brothers who look so similar to each other.

The perseverance of the twins is astonishing. Their activity of competing for the title of uncle in height continued until they got married at the age of 16.Before that, the titles of "big uncle" and "little uncle" had been interchanged, and Xiao Lan was often confused, or they changed their titles, and she often called them wrong, and in a fit of anger, when the two When people appear at the same time, she calls them "uncle big and small" collectively, and calls them uncle when they appear alone.

Zhuang Yu was very proud of successfully teasing his younger brothers again. He grinned and was pinched by Daiyu's waist, but he didn't move his brows as if he didn't feel it. She caught Daiyu's small hand in her own big palm, and secretly scratched Daiyu's palm. Daiyu's face turned red when she scratched it. She didn't know whether it was from shame or annoyance.

A few people played in the waterside pavilion for an hour, and Xiao Lanhong was also a little sleepy. Zhuang Yu and Daiyu asked the nanny to hold her and went back to the house together, fed Xiao Lanhong, changed her diaper, and then let her go to sleep.

The twins excitedly ran to find Qiu Qingyu, ready to share their new game of "comparing height and size" with their mother and concubine.

Daiyu cast a sideways glance at Zhuang Yu, and said, "I'm telling you to be narrow-minded, the concubine mother will knock you again later!"

Zhuang Yu grinned: "That's only if they can see the concubine mother. It's hard for the father to take a rest today, and it's rare to be able to occupy the concubine mother for a whole day. These two little guys ran to pester the concubine mother without a wink. It would be strange to throw them out!" Come to think of it, the root of Zhuang Yu's liking to pick up his two younger brothers and throw them out is still with Zhuang Ye.

Daiyu blamed him again: "Since you know, why don't you stop them?"

Zhuang Yu curled his lips and said, "I'm not going to stop them. It's better for them to harass my father than to harass me? It's rare for me to take a bath too! Next, I'm going to be busy with the visit of the Qianxiang Kingdom mission. Father The king can hang on high, but I have to have no leisure for a month or two."

Daiyu blushed at first, but after hearing the second half of his words, she also softened her heart. Although she felt sorry for the two uncles, but... let them go!

Zhuang Yu pursed his lips and snickered behind Daiyu's back. What he said was totally untrue!

The main purpose of the mission from Qianxiang Kingdom was to pick up their crown daughter, Princess Yimeng, back to the country, and their prince Fu Sheng would also come with the mission this time.

Zhuang Ye was the one who defeated the Qianxiang Kingdom's navy, and it was indeed appropriate to give the Qianxiang Kingdom's embassy a blow, but it would be too overkill for a prince to preside over the reception of the embassy. Ye lowered his status, which seemed to show how much Dajing valued Qianxiangguo.

Therefore, sending Zhuang Yu out has the same effect.

But Zhuang Yu's appearance mainly serves as a deterrent. Specific matters are arranged by the Ministry of Etiquette, and there is no need for him to worry about them. bring back.
