Lin Jiajingyu's Counterattack in the Red Chamber

That afternoon, Lin Jingyu knew what Daiyu wanted to ask.

"Isn't grandma's birthday still two months away?"

"Brother, didn't you fall asleep?" Daiyu laughed, and put down the booklet in her hand, "There are still two months left, but I have to start preparing. A few years ago..." With both parents Sometimes, preparations are made half a year in advance.

Speaking of the latter, those words were blurred in his mouth.

When Daiyu mentioned it, Lin Jingyu also remembered the grand occasions in the early years.His mother, Jia Min, was originally a delicate person, but she blamed herself for not being able to have fun, so she became more attentive during his grandmother's birthday.What impressed him deeply was that every year on his grandmother's birthday, his mother would personally embroider some items and send them to the capital.Even when she was bedridden later, she would move two stitches on the embroidered surface embroidered by the embroiderer to express her heart.

His mother, a woman who is both gentle and elegant, noble and elegant, used her gentleness and patience to soothe his anxiety when he first arrived in another world, and he never hesitated to add all the beautiful words in the world to her.

"Then it is indeed time to prepare." Lin Jingyu took the booklet that Daiyu handed over to record the entry and exit of the warehouse, flipped it over and asked: "The list of parents over the years should still be there, and there are rules to follow. It’s time to add and subtract from the list.”

"Naturally, this year is different from previous years." Daiyu said in a low voice, without expressing the fact that her mother and father were not there.

Lin Jingyu comforted: "Daiyu, the most difficult days are over. Father, mother and the others just went to live in another far away place, like... um... that year My mother accompanied my father to go to Beijing to report at the end of the year, but this time they went longer than that year. I still remember that you cried several times when you were arguing to see your mother."

When Lin Jingyu brought up the past, Daiyu's sad emotions were immediately replaced by others, and she retorted angrily: "Is that my fault? Do you remember how you answered me when I asked why your mother disappeared? !"

Daiyu imitated Lin Jingyu's emphasis, and repeated what she remembered so far: "'Daiyu, do you know that we were actually given by the shopkeeper when my mother bought jewelry in Yunyi Pavilion, and now she thinks you are not easy to raise?" Decided not to want you, I was implicated by you.'”

Glancing at Lin Jingyu, Daiyu said: "Thanks to you, for many years, every time I went to Yunyi Pavilion to buy jewelry, I tried to ask the shopkeeper to give me a child to raise!"

With such an interruption, the sadness in the hearts of both of them has been relieved a lot.Lin Jingyu decided to use another way to explain the difference between the death of her parents and what will come sooner or later, "We always have to live our own lives. You see, it's like a mother marrying a father. Doesn't the mother also leave the grandmother? Many It is rare to see each other every year, but none of us can deny that she misses her grandmother. The parting between us and our parents is like the mother leaving her grandmother.”

The clever Daiyu immediately found out the loophole in Lin Jingyu's words: "My mother writes to my grandmother every year! And neither mother nor father has been in my dreams!"

Lin Jingyu got stuck, and seeing Daiyu's mistrustful eyes, she immediately found a way to remedy it: "You know, father and mother have been together for a lifetime, and when we were here, they were inseparable from Meng and Meng. Now Without our interruption, it will be even more gluey. In other words, they have no time!"

It was unbelievable to hear this statement at first. Her parents loved them so much, how could it be?But if you think about it carefully, it seems to be the same thing again!Daiyu thought for a while, and felt that this was still very possible, and decided to accept her brother's argument: "Brother, you always have so many fallacies."

This statement is the truth of whether you believe it or not, and we are all more willing to believe and accept that our relatives are living well in another world.Even if it is more difficult than their abandonment, I hope that their well-being will never change.

Lin Jingyu looked at Daiyu's sad and happy expression, and felt extremely comforted.She is still delicate and sensitive, but she never hurts the spring and autumn, or herself.

Taking a deep breath in her heart, Lin Jingyu talked about the serious business: "The main thing is that you have to prepare something to show your filial piety to your ancestors. Do you have any ideas now?"

Daiyu nodded, and said: "There is a general direction, but I'm not sure yet. I want to discuss with Sister Xichun and the others to see what they have prepared. Brother, last time Sister Tanchun said that our house has a unique style. Boating on the lake is a beautiful thing. Now that the weather is hot, playing by the lake is cool and pleasant, which is a good time.”

Lin Jingyu tapped on the table, his cousins ​​are serious relatives, so naturally there is no taboo in the filial age.Thinking of this, Lin Jingyu frowned and asked, "Is Miss Smith also in Rongguo Mansion?"

Daiyu immediately understood what Lin Jingyu meant, "If you invite Sister Xichun and the others to come over, it would be really bad if you don't invite Sister Xiangyun and Sister Bao."

Seeing Daiyu looking at her, Lin Jingyu didn't want to let her go to Rongguo Mansion.The weather has been hot recently, and the Jia family's study of ice is inferior to that of the Rongguo Mansion. Jia Baoyu has long been allowed not to go to the family study by his grandmother who loves his grandson.What's more, the second aunt and Lian's second sister-in-law have torn their faces, presumably Lian's second sister-in-law will go to invite the second aunt out of the mountain in person soon, Lian's second sister-in-law is so smart, it is estimated that Lian's second sister-in-law is not happy now.

Rongguo Mansion is in chaos right now.

"Why don't I just send a post to Sister Yingchun, inviting her to visit the house with her sisters to discuss grandma's birthday?"

Lin Jingyu joked, "You are the only one who is clever."

Cousin Yingchun is usually a wooden person, if she is ordinary, she will naturally give such a post to Cousin Tanchun who has always had an idea. Now that the eldest and the second room have a rift, Yingchun wants to live under Lian's second sister-in-law, of course she can't now. Tanchun, who was raised with her second aunt, is too hot.But Xichun was too young, and the only people who could discuss it were Miss Xue and Miss Smith who were living here.Whether they come or not depends entirely on their willingness.

Daiyu smiled shyly, and added: "The Second Sister-in-law of Lian is currently presiding over the entire Rongguo Mansion, but she is a really busy person. If the Second Sister-in-law can come to our little daughter's family gathering, I must be very happy .”

Lin Jingyu expresses his opinion on Daiyu's idea with his unabashed approval.

Early the next morning, Daiyu sent flowers to Rongguo Mansion.That afternoon, Yingchun replied to the post, saying that the five sisters would be on time when the time came.

Although Daiyu was looking forward to the arrival of Xichun and the others, she was not too excited.After Lin Jingyu went to Beijing, she became good friends with the favorite daughter of the Xu family, and later, under Miss Xu's introduction, she got to know the top ladies in the capital, as well as the female relatives of her father's former friends.It was not when I arrived in the capital at the beginning of the year, except for a few cousins ​​of the Jia family, Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun who lived there, there was no one to talk to, and I was alone.

The date set by Daiyu was relatively near, so she prepared the things for entertaining them, and the date arrived.Lin Jingyu's original plan was to say a few words of welcome and fun to them and then go to Xu's mansion. This day happened to be Mr. Xu's holiday, and every time this day came, the husband would carefully check his studies.However, seeing Jia Baoyu following, Lin Jingyu immediately changed her mind.

"Yuxiao, you send someone to the stable to tell you that there is no need to prepare carriages and horses. In addition, you ask Lin Feng to go to Xu's mansion and ask him to help me to apologize to my husband. There are guests in the mansion today, so I can't come to ask for advice. "

Without waiting for Yu Xiao to agree, Jia Baoyu said: "Cousin, don't bother, my cousin and Sister Lin left the mansion, my ancestors and I were very worried, now seeing my cousin's face is radiant, I feel relieved. I haven't seen Sister Lin for a long time, and I miss her very much. Today, I must have a good talk with Sister Lin. If you don't have time, you can go on your own, and you don't need to greet us specially."

Tanchun is wearing a rose red skirt today, which highlights her temperament even more. I wonder if her mother-in-law, Aunt Zhao, has specially explained something, and she stood there and chimed in:

"Baoyu, if you were a daughter, cousin wouldn't have to be in such a difficult situation."

Jia Baoyu is used to being teased by several sisters at any time. If he meets an ordinary man who is teased like this, he will throw his sleeves away early, but Jia Baoyu can't wait for it to be like what Tanchun said, "This life can't be changed. If there is an afterlife, I will definitely marry him." It is to be a daughter's house like water."

Tanchun rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "If Lian's second sister-in-law is here, I'm afraid I have to add a sentence, 'This life is destined, if there is another life, I must be a man!'."

Lin Jingyu glanced at the few people present, Xue Baochai looked at Tanchun with a dignified smile and joked, Shi Xiangyun stood by and watched, Xichun was ignorant, Yingchun squirmed her lips a few times, but she didn't say anything.

It is a joke to compare a man to a woman. If a woman dreams of becoming a man, she will be said to be ambitious and restless.Xue Baochai is Mrs. Wang's niece. Tanchun is raised by Mrs. Wang's side. They are both from the second family and the same faction. How can Yingchun be their opponent?Even Yingchun couldn't resist Tanchun's random words.

Lin Jingyu smiled at Tanchun who was looking at him, pretending not to understand what she meant, and said to Jia Baoyu who was still persuading him with a smile: "According to the calculation, we haven't seen each other for several months, so I want to I want to talk to you. Besides, my ancestor’s birthday is approaching, and I don’t have a firm idea yet, so I want to ask you for an idea.”

Baoyu laughed and said: "Cousin, as the saying goes, people love people, and when people come, they are love. As long as you and sister Lin arrive that day, the ancestors will be very happy."

Tanchun interjected, "Cousin, don't trust him. His fallacies are all set in one set, and he accidentally slipped into them."

"Yuxiao, you go first, so that the master won't wait." Seeing Yuxiao going down, Lin Jingyu was about to speak, when she saw the little maid come in behind the curtain and say that the girl is here.

"Brother, I said that the sisters should have arrived long ago, why didn't they see anyone? So you detained them." Daiyu came in with her head down, and after joking, she asked with a smile, "Brother, are you going to have dinner at Mr. Xu's place?" ?”

The author has something to say: I suddenly feel that once I accept the setting of Jia Min and Lin Ruhai, it is quite touching!
