Cold fragrance and warm jade [Red Mansion Chai Dai]

"My younger sister has seen my jade one, and she should know that it has two sentences, 'Don't forget, immortal life and prosperity'? But Sister Qiaobao also wears a golden lock, which is engraved with 'Never leave, never leave, and stay forever forever. 'Bazi, doesn't it match the words on my jade?"

Daiyu sneered: "Why such a coincidence?"

"I heard from Ying'er that Sister Bao's two words were given by a monk with a scarlet head, and he also said that they must be carved on gold vessels. Sister Bao wears this golden lock every day, and I only found out yesterday."

Daiyu thought about it for a while, and her heart became more and more uncomfortable.

Just one gold and one jade, that's all.There are also matching words.

As for the scarlet monk?Daiyu felt even more strange.

At the beginning, she had heard Chongyu ask Jia Yucun if there were some masters in the world who could predict people's misfortunes and fortunes, and give countermeasures in advance.

At that time, Chongyu pestered Jia Yucun and told him a lot about his travels. Jia Yucun knew that Lin Ruhai didn't mind him sharing anecdotes with the two children, so he said that there was a scarlet monk trying to melt a little girl away. If he failed to become a monk, he left the prophecy and left, and finally the prophecy came true.

And Daiyu herself heard from her parents that the one who wanted to turn her into a monk was also a monk with a scarlet head.But nowadays, Baochai is also a monk with a scarlet head.

Daiyu just felt that there was something established above them.

Suddenly, she recalled the strange dream she had a few days ago.After waking up that day, and because Chongyu went home early, she quietly changed her medicine. She wanted to think about the dream carefully, but she forgot about it, and now she remembered it.

With this thought, she recognized the voice that woke her up from her dream!

Could it be Baoyu who called "Keqing save me" in her dream?

She was thinking wildly, but because Baoyu didn't hear her answer, she said again: "It's strange to say that the pill that Sister Bao took actually has a fragrance. When I got up early and took it, I could still smell it when I went. It's so cool, it's so cold again. Sweet, it smells much better than those incenses. If sister Bao didn't want to, I really want to try it."

Seeing that Baoyu still had aftertaste, Daiyu sneered more and more: "I know the medicine Sister Bao takes, it's called Lengxiang Wan, and it's very troublesome to prepare, but after her family got the prescription, it took a year or two So I gathered all the things and medicines together, made it into one ingredient, and now it's buried in the pear tree."

The more Daiyu thought about it, the more she felt that Baochai was born with hatred for her.

She lives in the Rongguo Mansion, and she has caused a lot of gossip from the girls and women, but Baochai is a guest like her, but everyone likes Baochai; the scorpion-headed monk is also like this, and only tells her that she wants her to become a monk. , or see relatives and friends with a different surname, and hear crying, how can this be done?If it is against Baochai, it is also a prescription for medicine and auspicious words!

Bao Yuqi asked, "How did my sister know?"

After hearing this, Daiyu felt a little relieved.Although everyone likes Baochai, Baoyu always prefers her.Baochai was ill a few days ago, and someone asked about taking the medicine, because the Lengxiang pill was too strange, so many people knew about it.Her Xueyan and Shuanglian often mixed with other girls and women, and they were very well informed. After hearing about it, they naturally came back to tell her.

It's just that she didn't bother to talk to Baoyu about these things, so she just said, "You care about me!"

Baoyu laughed and said, "I'm partial to you!"

Neither of them knew that Baochai just heard the conversation outside the door, so she left quietly.

It turned out that after Daiyu and Baoyu left Li Wan one after the other, the sisters laughed for a while, and then separated from Baoyu.Du Baochai was afraid that Baoyu and Daiyu would be unhappy because of his words of persuasion, so she also wanted to persuade them to fight for them, so as not to hurt their brother and sister.

Therefore, when she came over, she also secretly told the girl and mother-in-law not to make public, so that Bao Dai and her last conversation could be heard.Because she felt that the two had reconciled, she didn't want to disturb them anymore.

Seeing that she had arrived in Jiamu's courtyard, Baochai simply went to see Jiamu and talked and laughed with Jiamu.

I didn't sit for long, and it was time for lunch.While Jiamu left Baochai to eat with her, she ordered the girl to invite Daiyu and Baoyu.

Before Daiyu entered, she heard Jiamu's laughter coming from the room. When she came in, she saw Baochai sitting beside Jiamu.

She didn't show her expression, but she felt uncomfortable in her heart.

What she always annoyed Baochai the most was that no matter what she did, Baochai always looked dignified. The elder sister's love for the younger sister is helpless.

No matter what she does, Baochai will only act according to her original plan, with Jia Mu, Baoyu, and others... all the same.

Now seeing Baochai can also make Jia's mother happy, she feels resentful again, and only thinks about Baochai's family, but she doesn't know what plans they have.No matter how generous and decent Ren Baochai pretends to be in front of other people, I am afraid that he is also hiding evil intentions.For example, the overlord of the Xue family doesn't care if he kills someone?

Daiyu's suspicion of Baochai is actually related to Chongyu's repeated mention of Xue Pan's crimes in front of her.

Long before Xue's family came to Beijing, Daiyu's siblings had discussed that they would find a way to get the little girl bought by Xue Pan after Xue's family arrived.Xue's family lives in Lixiangyuan, so the opportunities are more.Chongyu also met Xue Pan, and asked Xue Pan's tone, but Xue Pan refused to say anything, and even said that he would rather kill Xiangling than give it to others. Chongyu saw that Xiangling was following Baochai now. Those around him didn't ask for it anymore, they just silently looked for opportunities to catch Xue Pan.

Daiyu knew that Xue Pan was like this, so she doubted the character of Xue Pan's family, so no matter whether Baochai was sincere or not, she took it for granted.

She intends to change Baochai's appearance, so that she will be like a wife all day long, and she can't force Baochai to change her face.

This matter became more and more difficult, but Daiyu became more interested.

But she didn't realize that even though she was secretly annoyed with Baochai, she was actually more close to Baochai in her heart.

She wanted to get closer to Baochai, but she had a lot of worries. Instead, every time she got close to Baochai, she sometimes had some sarcasm.Fortunately, everyone knows that this is what she is used to, and there is no doubt that she only does this to Baochai.

No one knows what Daiyu thinks about such a little girl.

After eating at Jiamu's place, Jiamu wanted to rest, Baoyu was going to play, and Daiyu went back to her room to embroider her purse.

In a blink of an eye, the day after tomorrow is Baoyu's school day.

Daiyu has embroidered the purse, but it's too late to give it to Baoyu.

After she got up in the morning, she was adjusting her makeup in the mirror, when she suddenly saw Baoyu coming in a hurry to say goodbye to her.

Daiyu then took out her purse, threw it at Baoyu, and said with a smile, "Okay! I'm sure I'm going to go to the Toad Palace to win laurel. I can't send you off, so I'll give you this."

Baoyu picked it up in a hurry, and when he looked carefully, his face was full of strangeness.

Seeing that Daiyu's face was full of narrowness, Baoyu laughed and stomped her feet: "My dear sister, why do you do this!"

After chatting with Daiyu for a long time, Fang withdrew and went to school with Qin Zhong.

There was never much homework in Jia's family school, and most of the children in the school only studied for fun.During Baoyu's visit, he got to know more and more interesting people, and his family only thought that he was studying in school, which made him very comfortable to play outside.

Chongyu secretly took Baoyu's words and deeds into his eyes when he was studying at home, and he also told Daiyu when he returned home.

Hearing this, Daiyu only had brother and sister affection for Baoyu.Since he is his own elder brother, he is no longer sensible, but only knows how to act recklessly according to his nature, and that also has the affection of relatives.

Baoyu only cares about playing outside, but Daiyu is also a little happy.

Without Baoyu's constant annoyance, Daiyu has a lot more free time. When she goes to embroider Chongyu's purse, she can be more careful and conscientious. She can also ask Li Wan for some new embroidery methods and patterns.Therefore, the purse she embroidered for Chongyu is much more exquisite than the one she made for Baoyu.

It was such a happy day.

In a blink of an eye, it was almost the end of the year, and everyone in Jia's house was already busy with the New Year's affairs.

On this day, there was a letter from Lin Ruhai, which was sent to Jia's residence in a hurry, saying that he will spend the Chinese New Year in Beijing this year, and he is already on his way. After tidying up, it is rare to be able to go back to the old house this year, and I will take the two children home for the New Year. Now I have sent someone to send a letter, just to let the old lady be prepared.

When Jia's mother saw the letter, she was happy at first, but also a little sad. This year, Daiyu could not spend New Year's Eve with her.

She was more worried.Lin Ruhai didn't say very clearly in the letter, he only said that he would arrive in Kyoto before the year, but he didn't say why he was able to come to Beijing for the New Year.Lin Ruhai has never had the opportunity to return to Beijing since he took up a foreign post.And now they have to order people to tidy up Lin's mansion, which means they will live forever.

Daiyu knew the content of her father's letter, and she was also very puzzled.Chongyu had told her earlier that Yang Zongquan would escort her siblings back to Yangzhou after the beginning of spring, why is it that her father is going to Beijing now?

She didn't get the answer to all these doubts until Chongyu returned home.

Chongyu also only told Daiyu that some time ago, there were villains who wanted to assassinate Lin Ruhai.Fortunately, Yang Zongquan's two senior brothers were by Lin Ruhai's side, so Lin Ruhai was not injured, and Lin Ruhai had the opportunity to wipe out the gang of salt lords.

The news was sent back to the capital, and the emperor felt that since Lin Ruhai became the patrolling censor, he had encountered life and death crises many times, and even stayed in Yangzhou for his beloved wife, and now he almost died again, so he simply asked Lin Ruhai to nominate a new patrolling censor , and then transferred Lin Ruhai back to the capital.Considering that Lin Ruhai has worked hard outside for many years, this time, he specially let Lin Ruhai spend the new year well before taking Lin Ruhai's new job.

Lin Ruhai was already somewhat dissatisfied with Jia's family because of the many letters that Chongyu sent back to Yangzhou through the channels of the Lin family, so he never revealed any rumors in the letters.

The change of Lin Ruhai's official position was all agreed by Lin Ruhai and the emperor through private correspondence.Although there has been some movement in the official circles in Yangzhou, the most definite news has not been released for a while, and only a very small number of high-ranking officials in Beijing have seen something strange for the time being.No one in the Jia family's Rongning and Ningfu's real power now has no way of knowing and can only speculate secretly.

But seeing that Lin's family is getting more and more cheerful these days, Jia's family also gradually let go of their worries, and only waited for Lin Ruhai to arrive in the capital.
