Cold fragrance and warm jade [Red Mansion Chai Dai]

Taking advantage of Baochai not having to go back to Xue's house tonight, Daiyu quietly went to Baochai's room at night.

Daiyu sat opposite Baochai, looking at Baochai without blinking.

"Sister Bao, I heard that Wei Ruolan and others have frequently invited Baoyu to banquets in the past two days!"

Her tone was pretending to be relaxed, and Baochai was very familiar with her now, so she could hear a bit of worry from her tone.

Baochai couldn't help stretching out her hands to pinch Daiyu's face, it was still cool to the touch, even though it was almost the Dragon Boat Festival and the weather was much better than before, Daiyu's body temperature was still a little cooler than other people, who had already changed into She wears light clothes, but she still has to wear thicker clothes.Especially at night after a sunny day, the coolness seemed to seep into Daiyu's body, forcing her to put on a cloak.

Even in the house, with the windows open for ventilation, she still has to wear a cloak.

Baochai deliberately closes the window for Daiyu, but Daiyu is greedy for the fresh air brought by the cool breeze. Baochai can't persuade Daiyu, so she has to get her dressed and warm water to warm her hands.Of course Daiyu dared not let Daiyu drink more tea, for fear that Daiyu would not be able to sleep again.

"What's wrong with you again?" Baochai's tone was tinged with tenderness, connivance, and worry that she hadn't noticed.

Daiyu said angrily, "When did I make a wrong decision?"

However, as soon as she met Baochai's eyes, Daiyu lowered her head first, wrapped her handkerchief around her slender hands, and happened to see a stalk of emerald bamboo embroidered on the handkerchief, protruding obliquely, could it be from Baochai's hand?This handkerchief was given to her by Baochai.

So Daiyu felt her face burning even more.

She didn't know whether she really had such weird thoughts about Baochai, or if she had read those crooked books from Chongyu, and the more she thought about it, the more she changed her temperament, and then she came up with strange thoughts.

But it is absolutely true that she wants to keep Baochai by her side.

It was also true that she would be upset when she heard that other bad men were after Baochai.

However, she dared not tell anyone about her thoughts about Baochai.

The style of Longyang among men is even passed on as a romantic and elegant thing, as long as it does not affect getting married and having children, then follow them.Some people even boast that they don't go to those romantic places, and they don't like women, but they don't know how many handsome servants they have kept at home.

Between women and women, it is really not tolerated by outsiders.

Even if they work together as a husband, they only comfort each other because they are not loved by their husbands, in the eyes of outsiders, there are many unreasonable things, not to mention that Daiyu only wants to be with Baochai for a long time, but does not want anything else.

Even if she can hide Baochai's affair very deeply, how can she keep Baochai by her side?

Daiyu has nothing to do, but she has many unwillingnesses.

Now with her head down, she felt that Baochai was still staring at her, only waiting for her reply, Daiyu bit her lip, leaving slight tooth marks on her pale pink lips, and said: "I just heard that Wei Ruolan Among the people invited, are there some sons who have invited a matchmaker to my sister's house before?"

Daiyu's voice became lower and lower, until it was like a whisper.

Because Baochai seldom mentioned her marriage in front of her sisters, even though she was close to Daiyu, she couldn't help but blush when she heard Daiyu mention it, even if she noticed that Daiyu was a little shyer than her, she only treated Daiyu Because of his young age.

Although Daiyu has been helping Guo Sixi and Yang Liutong to deal with various affairs when they got married, even when Baochai and Aunt Xue discussed how to prepare for Xue Pan's marriage, Daiyu also came to help, but preparing for other people's marriage and preparing for herself , the gap is huge.

It is not surprising that Daiyu is shy now.

Although Baochai often felt a little unusual intimacy with Daiyu, she never thought that her feelings for Daiyu might be different, so she didn't think otherwise.

Baoyu is the most intimate prince and grandson, except for one Wei Ruolan, who is really of a higher status and will inherit the Wei family, the others are more attached to Baoyu, serving Baoyu on a daily basis, to curry favor with this noble concubine and concubine younger brother.

Most of these people are idle young men with nothing to do on weekdays. Although they have a good relationship with Baoyu, except for their slightly better family background, other things are not much different from Xue Pan before.

Baochai had no feelings for these people. Even Aunt Xue felt that if she really let her daughter marry them, she would be afraid of trouble in the future, so even if a matchmaker came to the house, she would be dismissed by Aunt Xue early on. up.

Baochai only knew these things when she heard her mother sigh when she returned home.

Now I suddenly heard from Daiyu that Baochai was surprised after she was shy.

"Hey, where did you hear these things?"

Neither she nor Aunt Xue mentioned it. Where did Daiyu learn about it?

Daiyu stared blankly before thinking of this question.

Just when she was hesitating whether to tell Baochai the truth, Baochai suddenly said: "Chongyu told you? The son of the Wei family has a good relationship with Chongyu. It is not surprising to have heard about these things."

Now that Baochai has told the truth, Daiyu has no need to hide it anymore, she just nodded and said, "That's right. Sister Bao, I didn't have time to ask you before, what are your plans?"

Daiyu finally raised her eyes again and looked at Baochai.

Suddenly being looked at by her tear-filled eyes, even Baochai couldn't help being dazed.

After a long time, she shook her head and said: "What plans can I have? I just wait for my mother to make arrangements for me. Although I don't feel much about these people, but my mother really agreed with their parents about this marriage, so it's not their turn. I refused."

"Fortunately, my mother has no plans to force me now, but I am getting old, and I can't stay by my mother's side forever and not get married. Even if I wait, it will just wait for a while. Maybe my brother and sister-in-law went to Guidi, and I will meet someone who is suitable for me there, and then I will send a letter to discuss with my mother, which is not certain, just like my brother met his sister-in-law when he went out of the house."

Baochai spoke plainly, but there was some sadness in her eyes.

Although she understands the established destiny of being a woman, she is not sincerely willing to accept it.

If what she said is true, I'm afraid that the person she will marry in the future will really be someone she doesn't know very well, and she may have to stay away from the familiar sisters from now on.

At that time, what if the brother and sister-in-law are nearby, and the mother may also be taken over?

But she was alone in another strange family.

No matter how close relatives are, they may not help themselves much.Once the daughter is married, how many people can live a relaxed life as if they are still at home?

But after hearing Baochai's words, Daiyu felt a little joy in her heart.

She changed her position and got closer to Baochai, and asked with a smile: "Sister Bao, then you don't like them?"

Baochai is about to pinch her mouth again.

"We can say whether we like it or not about our children's marriage!"

Although she was reprimanded by Baochai, Daiyu smiled even more like a flower.

She put her arms around Baochai and begged for mercy with a giggle: "Good sister! Hairy'er knew she was wrong, so she told you in private, and never said these things outside. What do you think, sister? You just talk to me Tell me, I'm only talking to you!"

When Baochai looked down and saw her smiling face, he knew that she didn't really admit her mistake.

I wanted to mention her a few more words, lest she really get into trouble in front of the most well-mannered wealthy wives in the future, and the words came to her mouth, but she couldn't say anything. I couldn't see such a delicate face of hers, so I only nodded at the looming dimples on her cheeks, and sighed: "You really remember to only talk to me. No, it's best not to tell me in front of me. As long as you are in your heart If you have thoughts, no matter how careful you are, there is no guarantee that you will not accidentally say something."

After finishing speaking, Baochai was shocked.

No matter how unintentional she was, when she really said it, she was still preaching to Daiyu.

But Daiyu laughed even more happily: "I know! As long as my sister is by my side and talks to me more, I will have some thoughts, and I have told my sister a long time ago. Even if I still think about it in my heart, I have said it." , isn't that hidden in your heart?"

Little did she know that Daiyu was now covering up her nervousness with a smile.

She is testing whether Baochai is willing to stay with her for a long time.Even if what she thinks about being around is somewhat different from what Baochai thinks about being around, but it would be good if Baochai is willing.

Baochai did not think in Daiyu's direction.

She only thought that Daiyu would talk to Xiangyun more often in her free time during this time, and mentioned some things that Xiangyun should pay attention to when she gets married and be the head of the family in the future. so requested.

Although she felt that Daiyu seemed to be jealous of Xiangyun, and this move was meaningless, Baochai still agreed and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I promise you."

Seeing that Baochai should be forthright, Daiyu felt pleasantly surprised, and realized that it was only Baochai's misunderstanding, so she agreed easily, and most of the surprise disappeared.

But no matter what the reason was, Baochai's answer filled Daiyu with joy.

She doesn't ask much, as long as Baochai has her in his heart, she is satisfied.

Knowing that the affection in her heart is difficult to be accepted by the world, and may not even be accepted by Baochai, how can Daiyu dare to express it openly?I just hope that during this period of time, I can be more with you.

Daiyu didn't know when Shang put Baochai's hand around her with a little more strength.

Because of her weak strength, even though she hugged Baochai even tighter, it did not make Baochai feel uncomfortable. It only made Baochai more sure that she was a little weird tonight.

As early as when Daiyu visited in the middle of the night, Baochai was a little worried. She was afraid that Daiyu had something important to do, so she would come here at night not long after they parted.

After all, the two of them have the opportunity to meet every day, even if there are other sisters around most of the time, they can easily find a chance to talk in private. If it wasn't for something really important, why would the weak Daiyu brave the night wind to come here?

However, Daiyu picked out some irrelevant things and said that Baochai couldn't figure it out.

Marriage is important in the eyes of others, but in Baochai's heart, it is not even as important as the usual chores in the family shop.

Besides, Daiyu never let her sisters ask her more about these things before, and would change the subject every time she heard them mentioning it, and Baochai didn't believe that Daiyu was really worried about this matter, and only thought that Daiyu was talking about it first before getting down to business. Say something else, so that you can find an opportunity to introduce the theme.

She noticed that Daiyu was exerting force in her hand, but she couldn't hear Daiyu talking to herself, so she couldn't help feeling a little flustered, and hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

Daiyu looked at her blankly: "Did something happen?"

She didn't understand where Baochai's nervousness came from.

Baochai looked at her for a long while, seeing that she did not seem to be lying, her worry gradually relaxed, but more doubts arose.

Baochai couldn't help asking again.

"Is it really all right?"

Daiyu shook her head.She vaguely understood that it was her abnormality tonight that attracted Baochai's attention.However, she really has nothing else to do, and it is impossible to deliberately deceive Baochai so that Baochai can be nervous and care about herself more.

But looking into Baochai's eyes, Daiyu also understood that even though Baochai believed what she said, she was still a little worried.

She bowed her head and pondered for a moment, then Fang said: "If it is true that there is something, there is indeed something."

"what?"

Daiyu sighed softly, "You said earlier that brother Xue and sister-in-law Xue might find a suitable husband-in-law for you in Guidi? Coincidentally, after a while, I might also go to their side."
