Fate of the Red Chamber

Chapter 110 The Flowers and Moons Are Never Idle

Mrs. Wang was still a little puzzled when she learned that Lin Daiyu was waiting for her. Although this niece lived in the house temporarily, she was actually not very close to her.On the contrary, because of Baoyu, Mrs. Wang doesn't like her niece very much.In his opinion, although Lin Daiyu is the daughter of an official family, but both parents died, she may be suspected of restraining others.How can it compare with my own niece who is so reassuring and lovable!

Lin Daiyu walked into Mrs. Wang's room with a smile. Looking at this delicate daughter, Mrs. Wang couldn't help thinking that if the master didn't want her to go out to win the relationship, it would be good to stay as Baoyu's concubine.It's a pity that Daiyu's temperament is too stubborn, and Baoyu follows Daiyu. If there is any dispute between Daiyu and Baochai in the future, I'm afraid Baoyu will favor Daiyu, so Daiyu's temperament should be smoothed out.

Sitting with her hands drooping, Daiyu didn't know that Mrs. Wang planned to take her as Baoyu's concubine. She thought in her heart that she should have a good talk with Mrs. Wang. It is better for the people in the middle to have a good relationship with this aunt.

"Why does Daiyu have time to come and see my aunt today?" Mrs. Wang said with a smile.

Daiyu smiled, looked at Mrs. Wang and said, "Daiyu has been living in the mansion and bothering my aunt all the time. Is there anything wrong with coming to see my aunt today? Maybe my aunt doesn't want to see Yu'er!"

"What a clever mouth! It's obviously coming to me to beg for food, but it's my fault when it comes to her mouth!" Mrs. Wang teased.

Daiyu didn't say much, just looked at Mrs. Wang with a smile, and changed the subject, "Why haven't I seen Brother Bao in recent days!"

"He! I went to see the King of Beijing today! I don't know when I'll be back!" Mrs. Wang thought that Daiyu had come to look for Baoyu, so she felt a little unhappy, and secretly blamed Daiyu for being ignorant.

"Oh! That's such a pity! Originally, I was thinking of going to play with Sister Bao later! Who knew that Sister Bao would actually go out!" Daiyu laughed, with a regretful expression on her face.

Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth secretly. When she said it, she wanted to go to see Baoyu with Baochai. Who didn't know that Baoyu and Daiyu were getting closer.Speaking of which, Mrs. Wang was a little annoyed that her son had no eyes and would actually like Daiyu.What's wrong with Baochai is that she is well educated and reasonable, looks good, and more importantly, she is close to herself.Why!As a mother, she is not ignorant of her son's concerns, but as a parent, she is also thinking about her child!

"After Baoyu comes back, you can go find her again!" Mrs. Wang laughed.

"Auntie, I think Sister Bao and Second Brother have a good relationship! Last time I saw Sister Bao embroidering a bellyband for Second Brother!" The purpose of Daiyu's visit today is to make Mrs. Wang think that she has no other thoughts about Baoyu. Only in this way can Mrs. Wang help in this matter.

"Oh!" Mrs. Wang frowned, thinking about the meaning of Lin Daiyu's words.Looking at Lin Daiyu's face, there was nothing unusual, as if she was talking about family matters, but Mrs. Wang didn't think so.

"Looking at how good Sister Bao and Second Brother are on such a good relationship, I really hope that Sister Bao will become my sister-in-law!" This sentence has basically revealed Daiyu's attitude.

Hearing this sentence, Mrs. Wang felt happy for a moment.Mrs. Wang understood the meaning of Lin Daiyu's words. To a certain extent, Lin Daiyu's meaning represented the old lady's meaning.The old lady has always disapproved of letting Baochai marry in, and she has said a lot of sarcastic things both openly and secretly.Because of the word filial piety, Mrs. Wang can't express her meaning, but the struggle between Mrs. Wang and the old lady has never stopped for so many years.On the surface it is Baoyu's marriage, but in fact it is a battle of wits between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.Lin Daiyu is deeply aware of this point. Although the old lady said that she has been in the backyard all the time, it seems that she doesn't care about things, but even if she doesn't care about many things, as long as the old lady speaks, it basically counts. It's a nail in the coffin.

"Daiyu! Now, you have reached Jiji's age. Auntie was negligent! Some time ago, the master talked about your marriage. You have been growing up in our house. Now that you are so old, it is time to find It’s your in-law’s. Say it, you don’t have to be ashamed. Originally, I thought that the old lady would definitely make the decision, but now that you are old, old lady, you must have forgotten this matter, so my aunt wants to find you a good family. It's good that Mrs. Wang didn't mention this matter, but Lin Daiyu became a little sad and angry when she mentioned this matter.

If there is no old lady in this mansion, Lin Daiyu can't imagine what kind of end she will be in. "Auntie, so far! I have heard a rumor! It is said that my uncle is going to sacrifice me!" Mrs. Wang's face changed, and only a few people knew about it.How did Daiyu know, and what does it mean!The old lady has already told Daiyu about this family matter.

"Where did you hear this gossip? You take it seriously!" Mrs. Wang hurriedly tried to smooth things over. Although they had such thoughts, they were somewhat embarrassed to be known by Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu didn't ask any further questions, but said, "I said yes! How could uncle do such an immoral thing. Uncle is a high-ranking member of the court and has more knowledge than me. I came here from afar, and my parents I died early, if my uncle and aunt hadn't taken care of me, I don't know what would have happened now! I don't know who is so heartless, and arranged for my uncle like this, isn't this trapping my uncle in injustice?" Daiyu said You are complaining about Jia Zheng, but you are actually reminding Mrs. Wang that as long as you are not afraid of being drowned by saliva, you may as well sacrifice yourself.

Mrs. Wang's complexion changed several times, how could Mrs. Wang not understand the meaning of Daiyu's words, but at this time Mrs. Wang could only pretend to be deaf and dumb, as if this matter was really a rumor.

"That's right! Thanks to your deep understanding of righteousness and reason! Otherwise, your uncle and I would really be ashamed!" Mrs. Wang forced a smile.

Lin Daiyu just smiled, but she was feeling sad in her heart, don't you do too many shameless things?Seeing that the time had come, Daiyu began to talk about the real purpose of coming today.

"Auntie, when my father was away, I entrusted the family property to my uncle. Now that I am this old, I can also entrust the things to me." Lin Daiyu said with a smile.

Mrs. Wang's heart skipped a beat, she knew that Lin Daiyu's recent visit was for this matter, and the previous ones were just foreshadowing.This Duke's mansion looks magnificent, but who knows that it is already stretched. The dowry silver left by Mr. Lin for his daughter was invested in the construction of the Grand View Garden after entering Jia's mansion.At that time, the old lady withdrew this sum of money in advance for the purpose of welcoming Daiyu into the mansion. Now that Daiyu wants this sum of money, how can there be any more?

Daiyu has lived and boarded in the mansion all these years, so she could have said some harsh words to scare this niece who has never seen the world.But they all want face, although others don't know it.But there is no impenetrable wall in the world, if this matter is publicized.The Duke's Mansion embezzled the niece's family property, and I'm afraid they will drown them if they really spit at the stars, not to mention that the master is still an official in the court.

Thinking carefully about what Daiyu said in her heart, it is possible that Daiyu still wants to marry Baoyu.Mrs. Wang guessed in her heart that if this was the case, she had to calm down the matter first.As for the rest of the matter, Daiyu has already entered the door, isn't the rest solved?It's just that Baochai has been wronged.Several thoughts went around in Mrs. Wang's mind, and she finally decided to sacrifice Baochai for the time being. After all, Daiyu was still in her own hands, and there was nothing wrong with it.

"Daiyu! Uncle Lin said that this is your wedding money, and I will give it to you when you leave the court. You are not in a hurry now! You have always been on good terms with Baoyu, and you will be closer to Baoyu in the future!" These few words It can be regarded as acquiescing to Daiyu's future status.

Daiyu frowned, guessing in her heart that Mrs. Wang would be wrong, she still smiled and said, "Auntie, if you say something presumptuous, Sister Bao is compatible with Brother Bao!"
