Drunken Red Mansion: Melting into Jade Madness

In Zhen's mansion, Zhen Baoyu couldn't concentrate as he walked back and forth, because today was the day when his father invited Bingren to Jia's mansion to be a matchmaker, and he was anxiously waiting for his father's news.

When she was young, Zhen Yingjia went home feeling frustrated.

Zhen Baoyu greeted him full of hope, "Father!"

Looking at his son who was full of expectations, Zhen Yingjia sighed, "The Iceman came back and said, the old lady of Jia's mansion said that there is no basis for promises, so you can't trust them."

"No promise?"

Zhen Yingjia nodded, "After all, it has been so many years. What I regret now is that Ruhai should have made a covenant at the beginning. It is better to say it in black and white..." Shaking his head and sighing, "It is true that there is no basis for what you say. .”

Thinking of missing out on Daiyu, Zhen Baoyu felt a little annoyed, "What should I do?"

"I see..." Looking at his son's disappointed expression, "Forget about it."

"No!" Zhen Baoyu exclaimed in shock, asking him to give up Daiyu, the girl who had been in his heart since he was a child, he finally felt a little bit reluctant and unwilling.Besides, since there was a video, the childhood sweetheart mentioned by his parents, he believed that it was Daiyu, it was Daiyu, "Even if there is no oral agreement, now that Yu'er has reached the age of Ji, and it is time to marry, there is no one who has settled down. Our family went to propose a marriage, so could it have humiliated his Jia family? Besides, taking ten thousand steps back, Yu'er can't be regarded as the daughter of his Jia family."

Knowing what was on her son's mind, Zhen Yingjia sighed again, "Son, I also think the same way as a father, but...just...the old lady in Jia's mansion said...she can't decide what is going on with Yu'er."

"That……"

"The Iceman came back with a message and said that the lady in the palace had heard that Yu'er's marriage was only for her to agree to, so... from the Jia family, who would dare to take over the marriage for Yu'er?"

Hearing this, Zhen Baoyu sat on the chair blankly, "Imperial decree in the palace?" Then, his eyes lit up, "I'll go and beg my sister, I beg my sister to promise Yu'er to me, isn't it the imperial decree?"

Zhen Yingjia nodded when she heard the words, "However, this matter needs to be postponed for a while. Your sister is happy now. If you go to ask her now, if she goes to ask the emperor, I'm afraid she will be spoiled." From the beginning, why don't you beg her after she gives birth."

"Well, good." Zhen Baoyu flashed a gleam of joy, "Yu'er, I have been admitted to the champion of martial arts, and you still have to congratulate me personally."

Besides, Daiyu has already thought about going back to Yangzhou, and is already making preparations. When she was busy preparing to arrange things, Xueyan said, "Miaoyu is here."

"Miaoyu?" Daiyu frowned, went out to greet Miaoyu, and welcomed Miaoyu in, "Miaogong seldom goes to other places for activities. Today, he came to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but he wanted to reveal the fairy secret?"

Miaoyu looked at Daiyu and laughed, "It's just playing chess."

Daiyu hastily ordered Zijuan to set up a chess game, and the two sat down. After a while, they had already played two games. Miaoyu sighed softly and made a move, "You want to go?"

Daiyu looked at Miaoyu in surprise, what did she mean by this, or was she an expert in the world with the ability to know the secrets of heaven?He remained calm and said, "Miao Gong's words are getting more and more profound."

"What you have received in this life is the cause of what you have done in the previous life. If you want to know the result in the next life, what you have done in this life." Miaoyu dropped her eyes again and raised her clear eyes, "Have you heard of it?"

Daiyu raised her eyebrows, "I've heard about one or two."

"I got a divination today..." Miaoyu looked at Daiyu's confused expression, "The divination image says that the red luan star moves!"

Slightly startled, "What do you mean?"

"The direction on the hexagram is exactly your restaurant. I thought, I'm afraid it's because your good deed is approaching, so I'm here to congratulate you."

Although Daiyu was shocked, she also pretended to be confused, "Uh... I don't understand."

"According to your Bingxue intelligence, is there anything you don't understand?" Miaoyu clapped her hands with a smile, and got up, "I'm here today, we are destined to meet again."

Looking at the back of Miaoyu going away, Daiyu curled her lips. What she has to do now is to say goodbye to the old lady. She stands up and takes a look around the room. This place where she has lived for more than a year will only be two days away. , she was about to leave, and she didn't know when she would come back, and she probably would never come back.

She is like a duckweed, she settles here, and in a few days, she will settle there, and after a few days, she does not know where?

"Qinghai Lake." Daiyu laughed, "Brother Shen, would you be surprised if I brought the six aunts and the rest of the Lin family to you?"

"I'm going to tell you all about my life experience, will you believe me?"

"Since my father passed away, when I met you, you are my big brother. I am closer than my own big brother. Now, Yu'er has decided to join you."

In this way, she sent her family to Qinghai Lake without anyone noticing, so she will have no worries. Even if he is water-soluble and has a god-hunting camp, he doesn't know that Lin Daiyu is Lin Yu, so...he will never find out Go to Qinghai Lake.

Regardless of whether the Yizhi order can be obtained or not, the top priority is to go back to Yangzhou and arrange for the six aunts to talk about it.

Another pair of eyes that seemed to be worried but not worried echoed in her mind, recalling that for more than a year, Baoyu had cast her caring eyes from time to time, Baochai's obedience, the kindness of all the sisters to her, and Yingchun. ... Can't let go of Yingchun, and scenes appeared in front of her, "It doesn't matter, I have arranged my family, and I will come back, come back as Lin Yu, and continue to protect you, second sister."

He sighed again, lying on the bed, thinking about how to get back to his ancestors tomorrow, how to go to Yangzhou to visit his mother's grave.Can't fall asleep for a long time.Eyes opened suddenly, it seemed that she had to go back to Shitou Ji, she had something to explain, and she wanted to bring a treasure, after seeing that treasure, Mother Jia might softheartedly agree to her going back to Yangzhou to visit the grave.

Get up quickly, put on your clothes, go to Shitouji, look at Li Su and Mei Luo, "You two, send some people to the gate of Jia's mansion tomorrow, pretending to be someone from Lin's mansion in Yangzhou, and pick up one named Lin Daiyu Girl, after receiving it, send it to the ferry, change a group of people, and send it to Yangzhou. You don’t want to go, lest people know you and suspect that it is Shitouji.” Seeing the surprised expressions of the two, “Some Don't ask too many questions."

Early the next morning, Daiyu had already appeared in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, asking Zijuan and Xueyan to put on for her the green jade jewelry, bracelets, and hairpins that Jia Min left for her when she was young, and came to Jiamu's residence to say hello .

Mrs. Wang looked at Lin Daiyu who looked good, and nodded, "It's great that Sister Lin is well. The old lady is still worried. Now, seeing your expression, we can feel relieved."

"Thank you, aunt, for your concern. I can only blame Daiyu for not living up to expectations."

"My son." Mother Jia hugged Daiyu, "It's such a cold day, it's so early in the morning, what's the matter?"

"Come on, say hello to grandma."

Mother Jia groped Daiyu's pretty cheeks, "In such a cold day, I said earlier that my Yu'er doesn't need to say hello, but she still talks so much." After speaking, she squinted at the hairpin in Daiyu's hair, and then , took Daiyu's hand, "This is... this is..." There was mist in her eyes. If you remember correctly, this set of green jade jewelry should be when she spent her daughter Jia Min's birthday Gift.

"This is a gift from my mother to Yu'er when she was young before she passed away." Daiyu knew that Jia's mother had recognized her. "Because of this, Yu'er reminded of one thing. I hope my grandmother will be happy."

"what's up?"

Daiyu glanced at Jiamu, "In another month, it will be my mother's tenth anniversary. I want to go back to Yangzhou to visit my mother's tomb. I wonder if grandma will make it happen?"

When Jia's mother heard the words, she suddenly realized, thinking of her only daughter, she shed tears unknowingly, "Look at me, I forgot such a big thing, my mother did it..."

Seeing that Mother Jia was sad, Sister Feng hurried forward to smooth things over, "Don't be sad, old lady, I just blame you for being too busy these days. It's not that I deliberately forgot about Aunt Min. Since my sister said it today, she also mentioned it to us. Wake up, I will go."

Daiyu also stretched out her hand to test tears for Jiamu, "Grandmother, you are getting old, and Yu'er shouldn't bother you with this sad thing, but thinks about the long journey. I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up, so I brought it up here, if it makes my grandmother sad, it's all Yu'er's fault."

Hearing this, Mother Jia stopped her sadness, "It's just...the house is very busy now, I'm afraid your second brother Lian won't be able to spare the time and body to accompany you back to Yangzhou, what should we do."

Daiyu smiled, "Grandma, don't worry, Mama Wang has thought about this a long time ago, so she wrote to Lin Bo, the old housekeeper of the Lin Mansion in Yangzhou, a few years ago. Now that Lin Bo has arrived in Jinling, he will take care of her I'll go back and be responsible for the safety of everything on my way."

"Really?" Mother Jia looked at Daiyu suspiciously, "Why didn't I hear your mother Wang mention it earlier?"

"Oh, Ms. Wang said that the family is busy these days, so don't disturb everyone because of Yu'er's trivial matter, so..."

"Is that so..." Mother Jia pondered for a moment, "If so, Yu'er will leave early and return early."

"Old lady..." Mrs. Wang looked at Jia's mother hesitantly, "I'm afraid Xin'er will be here for a month or two?"

When Jia Mu heard the words, she didn't make a sound.

When Daiyu heard this, she understood. Mrs. Wang was reminding Mother Jia that she cannot be let go. She smiled, "There is one more thing I need to ask my grandmother to explain."

"Tell me, what, as long as my grandmother can do it, I should help you do it."

"Xueyan, this girl, grew up with me since she was a child. When I go back this time, I plan to promise her to the son of Lin Fulin, the steward of Lin Fu. I'm afraid that if I go back again, I will not bring Xueyan back. I'm afraid I'll stay in Yangzhou and help Yu'er take care of the old house in Yangzhou. I hope grandma will be happy." Seeing that Jia's mother was contemplating, she was probably considering the stakes of the matter, then smiled and continued: "In this case, grandma Sister Zijuan, I want to take her back for a while, she is used to taking care of me, so I will return her to my grandmother tomorrow when I return to Jinling."

Hearing this, Mother Jia laughed reassuringly, "My son, this is a good thing. I can't help it. Besides, Xueyan is originally a girl of your Lin family. Since you are in charge, you don't need to ask me. As for Zi Juan girl, she must take care of you all the way back and forth, with her, I feel more at ease."

"Look at what my sister said." Mrs. Wang felt relieved when she heard the words, knowing that Zijuan will eventually belong to the Jia family, and Daiyu must return it. If this is the case, "The old lady's is not my sister's. Pay attention to safety on the road, go early and return early."

"If that's the case, then I will bid farewell to my grandmother, aunt, brother, and sister-in-law." Daiyu swept the faces of Tanchun, Xichun and others in the room one by one, feeling a little bit reluctant.

Jiamu took Daiyu's hand, "Are you in such a hurry?"

"It's only a month away. I'm worried that the road will not go smoothly and the date will be delayed, so I want to start early."

After hearing this, Jia Mu had to give up, still worried, "My son, you are in good health. Be careful on the road."

"Grandmother, don't worry." Daiyu held Jiamu's hand considerately, "Mother Wang will go with me, and when I go back to my hometown in Yangzhou, I'm afraid the atmosphere at home will be beneficial to my body, and I'll have to recuperate for a while before I come back to worry about it." Grandfather's."

Mother Jia touched Daiyu's hand, loving her extremely, "My son, this is your home, don't worry about it, as long as you have me for a day, and I have a mouthful of food, you will have Yu'er."

"Grandmother!" Daiyu was moved when she heard the words. Over the past year, Mother Jia's heartfelt love was in her heart, but she was getting old and didn't know many things.

"Good boy, take Chunxian and Qiuwen with you. I have a companion on the road. Remember to write to me wherever you go." Mother Jia urged.

Daiyu nodded in agreement one by one.

Jia Mu also asked Sister Feng to go to the account room to withdraw 3000 taels of silver for Daiyu's travel on the road and to the tomb, but Daiyu refused to accept it. Mother, don't forget, she is also my only daughter." After finishing speaking, she shed tears again.

Seeing this, Daiyu had to accept it, and said goodbye to Tanchun, Xichun, Li Wan, Baoyu, Baochai and others, and then went out to Xiaoxiang Hall.

Although Baoyu was very reluctant to let go, but he was married, if not, he would definitely go with Daiyu, but now, he can only watch Daiyu leave in a daze, with a premonition in his heart, once Daiyu goes , I am afraid that I will never return again, thinking of this, my heart seems to be gouged out, and a mist can't help but appear in my eyes.

Seeing it in her eyes, Baochai could only sigh from the bottom of her heart, knowing that Baoyu wanted to give Daiyu to her now, but... Mrs. Wang would definitely not allow it, so she looked in the direction of Mrs. Wang, "Madam, I will have a date with Sister Luoer." , Now my sister is going south, I don’t know when we can meet again, I plan to clean up some things and give them to my sister, and ask Second Master for help.”

Mrs. Wang heard the words, thinking that Baochai was present, she closed her eyes and nodded.

Daiyu looked at the large and small packages in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. There were things to eat and use on the road, as well as calligraphy and paintings she liked to relieve fatigue on the road. I bought some food, drink, and play, and piled up a few boxes, large and small.

"It's really cumbersome!" Daiyu sighed softly, and silently ordered Mama Wang to clean up the things one by one, but she was alone holding the phoenix-tailed guqin, which was originally brought by Daiyu from Yangzhou. The favorite from here, now, she wants to take it back for her, because... this belongs to Lin Zhai in Yangzhou, belongs to Jia Min and Lin Ruhai...

For a while, the sedan chair sent by Jiamu carried five people, Daiyu, Wangmama, Xueyan, Zijuan and Chunxian, out of Xiaoxiang Hall.

Through the sedan chair curtain, Daiyu once again looked back at the place where she has lived for more than a year. It seems that her eyes are foggy. Is it because this body can't bear to part with the place where she has lived for ten years, or has she felt a little bit about this place for a year? emotion?I can't tell the difference... Close your eyes and rest your mind.

"Xiao'er!" Baoyu's voice sounded outside the sedan chair. Daiyu was startled, and lifted the curtain to take a closer look. Sure enough, Baoyu and Baochai came together, and she hurriedly got off the sedan chair to greet her.

Baochai laughed and said, "Just now there were so many people that I couldn't talk. I'm leaving today. I don't know how long it will take to see each other. These things are all for you on the way, as long as they don't feel cumbersome." He piled some of the things she had prepared onto the carriage behind.

For a while, Baochai and Daiyu talked for a while, glanced at Baoyu, squeezed Daiyu's hand, "Look at me, there is one more thing I forgot, so I won't tell you more, you are on your own way Take care." After speaking, he left alone.

Daiyu couldn't help sighing inwardly, this Baochai was as open-minded as the book said, this was deliberately leaving time for her to bid farewell to Baoyu, just like when she was in the Mei Mansion, Baochai also stayed by Baoyu's side, but It's also to prevent her and Baoyu from falling into the truth.

Baoyu stared at Daiyu and asked with red eyes, "Xiaoer, will you never come back after you go?"

When Daiyu heard this, she was startled and calmed down, "What did Second Brother say?"

"Hair..." Baoyu hesitated, "Are you...blaming me?"

"Resentment?" Daiyu smiled and shook her head, "Second brother thinks too much. Since my sister came to Jia's mansion, the second brother kept some delicious food for my sister, and I also kept some delicious food for my sister. , the second elder brother who is fun is reserved for the younger sister, this kind of heart and affection is the warmth that the younger sister gets the most from the house, the younger sister can only be grateful, why talk about complaints."

When Baoyu heard this, she smiled miserably, "It's good that my sister knows that I have a heart and affection for you." But there are mixed feelings in my heart. Why is the pain of parting so strong?

Seeing this expression, for the sake of the person in front of him whose body reacts at the first sight, for the infatuated Mr. Yihong in front of him, for the person in front of him who cannot fight against the times and destiny, for the sake of being betrayed by others because she is his weakness. There are people who are pinched in the hands and cannot move freely. There are those who are pitiful, sympathetic, maybe, and others... Daiyu seems to feel a little sad, "Second brother, what else do you want to tell your sister?"

"Pay attention to your body on the road, don't get tired from driving day and night, don't blow the wind on the river, write to me everywhere you go, it's almost the vernal equinox, my sister will cough at the vernal equinox, be careful, and..." Baoyu For a while, there seemed to be many exhortations that could not be finished.

After listening to Baoyu's heartfelt advice, Daiyu's heart became sour again. It turned out that he remembered everything, and he remembered it so clearly, just like when he was in Meifu, he said that no matter what it was, he would remember it all in his mind. "Daiyu, your tears have to be worthwhile, this man, to you..." I forced myself to suppress my heartache, and waved my hand to stop Baoyu from continuing, "Second brother, I will remember what you said, don't worry, With Mama Wang and Zijuan, I will be fine."

Seeing that Baoyu still wanted to speak, Daiyu continued to laugh and said, "It's you, from now on, put your heart on the second sister-in-law. It's not easy for her." After speaking, she stopped talking to Baoyu and got on the sedan chair.

"Xiao'er!" Baoyu shouted reluctantly. Seeing that the sedan chair had already risen, she hurried up two steps, finally stopped, lowered her head, and said in a low voice, "Take care of yourself." She actually shed tears.

When Daiyu heard Baoyu's advice, she suppressed her sadness, sighed softly, put down the car curtain, and closed her eyes. It seemed that there were tears in her eyes, just like when she watched the Korean dance troupe perform the scene of Baoyu crying. She felt sad for no reason, she didn't want to, the scene of parting today was just like the scene of crying spirit that day, the emotion was even stronger, she almost couldn't hold it back.

After leaving the gate of the mansion, people from Mei Luo and Li Su sect were waiting outside. When they saw the greeters coming out, they rushed to greet them. After the etiquette, they were still sent to the ferry by Jia's sedan chair and carriage. The boat was waiting there, and Daiyu and the others loaded everything onto the boat, and the people from Jia's mansion waved away.
