The Bandit Gentleman of the Red Chamber

Three points of the world are bright moonlit nights, and two points of rogues are Yangzhou. Yangzhou has been the most romantic and beautiful place in the world since ancient times.The style of Yangzhou is most in March when the spring is strong.

The carved beams and painted buildings, the row upon row of gardens, the fragrance of willows in March, the beautiful flowers, and the exquisite painting and flower boats passing by in the distance, it gave birth to a very uninhibited freehand brushwork.

How many poets and poets write poems in Linjiang, how many thin horses shed tears in the wind, and the sorrows of their children are endless.If you enjoy the spring scenery in March, you will also have the fireworks scene, and the beautiful wine girl, even if she has a passion and ambition, she will give birth to a sense that tourists are only suitable for the old people in the south of the Yangtze River.

The ancients said that fireworks will go down to Yangzhou in March, and I am not deceived by sincerity.

Seeing that Daiyu was about to reach the full moon, because Jia Zheng was carrying an official position, and Jia's mother disliked Mrs. Xing's pettiness, she decided to ask Mrs. Wang to go to congratulate her. It is cheap and comfortable.

Mrs. Wang has been at odds with Jia Min since she got married, so why would she want to eat her daughter's full moon wine?It's just that Jia Mu dared not disobey the order.

It was the first time for Jia Lian to travel far away, and he was going to Yangzhou, a city full of beauties since ancient times, so he happily agreed.The aunt and nephew went down by boat from the capital on February [-]th, and went to Yangzhou by themselves.

Since Jia Lian arrived in Yangzhou, his eyes have never stopped. In March of previous years, the capital was only green with willows, but Yangzhou was already full of flowers, and a hundred flowers competed for beauty. It looked extremely rich. Jia Lian only felt that his two eyeballs were not enough.

It's not that he hasn't seen the world, after all, it's the first time he's encountered the Southland, and it's also the first land of fireworks and moonlight since ancient times, so he can't help but be very happy, he just thinks that it's good to see Yangzhou anywhere.

Jia Lian was originally a man who couldn't walk when he saw a woman, and with a few older boys around him, he felt a little yearning for the famous Yangzhou skinny horse.I just wish I could get rid of my aunt and aunt's control immediately, and go find some of the most exquisite and graceful beauties.

On this day, because tomorrow will be the full moon of Daiyu, Jia Min is so busy that his feet will not touch the ground. Even Mrs. Wang has to help out because of the favor of her relatives. Lin Hai is even working in the yamen. I also sneaked out with a few servants.

----------Dividing line-----------

On this day, when spring was in full swing in March, the Lin Mansion opened its middle door, (scene) it was the full moon of Lin Manor's daughter and the eldest son's birthday.

The outer courtyard is full of male guests, Lin Haixiang invited Jiangnan governor Shi Yu Mude, whose name is Lianqing, to help entertain the guests, all the Jiangnan officials came here, it is full of nobles and purples, and the power of the Lin family can be seen .

During this period, Lin Chen stopped slightly when Chen Ziliang, the governor of the south of the Yangtze River, was there, and Lin Hai led him to meet his uncles and uncles from top to bottom.

Because the Lin family really enjoyed themselves in the Jiangnan officialdom, the so-called "family friends" inevitably became too many.Lin Chen only felt that his smiling face was sore and his waist hurt. Fortunately, everyone prepared gifts, and Shi Mude (the governor of Jiangnan) even gave him a brush wash with white suet and white jade carvings of osmanthus and osmanthus, which completely cured him. All the way to salute and act cute is bitter and tiring.

Just after seeing the male guest in front of him, Lin Chen was taken by Hong Fan (the big maid next to Jia Min) to the place where the female relatives were entertained.

Because the weather was clear today, all the female relatives were arranged in the garden of the Lin Mansion. Mrs. Shi's family (wife of the governor of the south of the Yangtze River) also helped to entertain the guests, and set up a small show in the waterside pavilion by the lake. Listening to music with flowers is the most pleasant thing.

Seeing Lin Chen coming, all the female relatives were overjoyed. At this time, the governor's wife had already left, and it was Mrs. Shi and Jia Min who sat at the head. Lin Chen went to greet Jia Min first.

Jia Min accepted it with a smile, and said: "Brother, come forward." Then she embraced Lin Chen and sat in the chair, stroking Lin Chen's head and smiling to the surroundings: "This is my son. "Lin Chen jumped off the chair smartly, and bowed his hands to the surroundings, causing a chuckle.

Mrs. Shi said: "What a well-groomed child, what is rare is that he is so smart and polite. He will definitely be a promising child in the future."

When Daiyu was born, there was no master in the Rongguo Mansion because of the distance, but now when the moon wine is full, Mrs. Wang came, because she is only a fifth-rank pleasant, even if she is the wife of the Rongguo Mansion, it is not easy to sit in the second-rank imperial order. The first one is sitting on the upper right.

At this time, he smiled and said: "Brother Chen looks good, but I see that it is inevitable to be thinner. At this age, it is better to be plump. My family's Baoyu grows so big like I hurt my eyeballs. It's finally three points plump, and my sister has never raised a child, so you have to be more careful, the child is weak, that must not be ignored."

Lin Chen saw that Jia Min's face was a little restless, he rolled his eyes, turned around and walked up, a clever maid moved the red sandalwood stool, Lin Chen didn't sit on it, just climbed up on Jia Min's chair. stop.

For a moment, everyone couldn't help laughing, Jia Min hurriedly hugged him with a smile, nodded his nose and said with a smile: "This brother of mine is the most lovable one, it's just brought in the womb, often A minor illness, a few days ago was shocked by the wind, and she lost a lot of weight."

Mrs. Shi hurriedly said: "Children are the weakest, and it's time to be cautious. Even adults will lose their appetite and can't bear it if they are poured with bitter juice all day long, let alone them? I know two medicated diet experts If you are a capable mother-in-law, if you invite your siblings back, it is justified to take care of your elder brother." Jia Min agreed with a smile.

Lin Chen resolved Jia Min's embarrassment, and now she also finds it a bit pleasing to the eye, and seeing Mrs. Wang's boring look, she feels even more upset.

Said it was full moon wine, but after looking around, he still didn't see Sister Lin. Lin Chen said, "Mother, where is my sister? Sister Hongfen said that my sister is with my mother. Why didn't I see my sister?"

All the female relatives even laughed and said: "Brother is in a hurry, Mrs. Lin has not brought out your daughter, but also told us to open our eyes and look at this sister who was born in Hua Dynasty."

Jia Min even smiled like a flower, and said to Lin Chen: "Your sister is still young, it's not good to carry her out often, it's not good if you are startled by the wind." Then she called the girl over and explained.

It was so easy to see this Langyuan fairy flower with his own eyes, but Lin Chen couldn't get excited at all.The reason is simple, anyone see a lump?The eyes are small, the nose is small, the mouth is small, the pink meat bun wrapped in red brocade (...) is impossible to get excited...

I don't know how those wives could see the characteristics of "delicate and delicate", "good eyebrows and eyes", and "good-looking and well-groomed" in this group of little buns. Everyone who praises them has nose and eyes, I don't know I thought they were praising which family had already reached the young lady.

Lin Chen tried his best to move closer to Xiao Daiyu, hoping to see some places where they boasted so much.Mrs. Shi laughed and said: "Brother is in a hurry to see my sister. It can be seen that this blood nature is born with it. Otherwise, how could such closeness come from?"

Jia Min smiled and handed Lin Chen to the nurse standing beside her, and said with a smile, "Let me play with my sister. But be more careful and send more people to look after her." The nurse bowed and said, Pick up Lin Chen and the other nanny who is holding Daiyu and go to Zhengde Hall.

Jia Min laughed and said, "Now my brother has met and my sister is hugging, but you haven't even had a cup of wine. Let's get in early."

After a lively day, Lin Hai and Jia Min stood in front of the door to see off the guests. They finally saw off Governor Shi's family who were the last to leave, and they brought them back to the second door.

A table of steaming meals had already been set up outside the Zhengde Hall. The two of them had been busy all day, and when they were most hungry, Jia Min was about to enter the inner room to have a meal. , call Brother Shangchen, the whole family is lively and lively."

So under the whim or intentional arrangement of the cheap father, Lin Chen's children's shoes were lucky enough to eat the first "family reunion" dinner after rebirth...

Lin's family education is strict, and they pay attention to not eating or sleeping. Lin Chen felt that this rule gave him a toothache. The main reason was that the maid who served him didn't know what he liked. He ate the stewed sweet and rotten vegetable soup, but he couldn't even say a word of resistance, and it was extremely painful to eat. When Lin Hai put down his chopsticks, he hurriedly put it down.

In the evening, Jia Min took off the hairpin for her, and smiled at Lin Hai who was reading a book: "Brother Chen fell into Mrs. Shi's eyes today, and he couldn't stop boasting when he left. I just saw that watch There is a big piece of mutton fat white jade brand in the gift purse. I heard that the third lady of the Shi family is also at this age. Look, sir, this is what the Shi family means..."

Lin Hai put down the scroll in his hand, and said with a smile: "Today, Lianqing (Shi Mude's character) also gave Chen'er a suet white jade brush wash, so it can be seen that he likes him a little bit. It's just that Chen'er is still young. It doesn’t necessarily mean that.”

It was a pity for Jia Min, but thinking that Lin Chen was only four years old now, it was too early to talk about kissing, so she let it go.

Lin Hai suddenly remembered something again and said, "I was at the banquet today, but I didn't see Lian'er."

Jia Min said with a smile, "what's the matter? Maybe Lian'er doesn't like the noise at the banquet, so he went to be quiet. He's still young, so he can't bear to follow these rules."

Lin Hai frowned slightly, but seeing that Jia Min didn't care, he didn't say anything.
