Cold fragrance and warm jade [Red Mansion Chai Dai]

Long before studying with Mrs. Chen Xiaosheng, Tanchun had mentioned the idea of ​​a poetry club with Xiangyun, Daiyu and others.

Later, they lived in Xiqiong Hospital of Linfu. After discussing with Daiyu, Tanchun and Daiyu thought about letting Yingchun and Xichun learn to compose more poems. At any rate, when the poetry club started, everyone could play together.In this way, the Poetry Society was delayed for several months.

Now it happened to be autumn, and Tanchun invited his sisters to gather in the pavilion in Xiqiong courtyard.

In the autumn afternoon, there is a cool breeze in the pavilion.

Tanchun was waiting in the pavilion early.All the other girls she invited came, but Daiyu was not there.

Xiangyun stood by the pavilion, looked at the way we came, raised his hands and said with a smile: "What a sister Lin! When I told us earlier, she said she would come to the club with us, but now that the third sister invited us, we will She won't come! If she doesn't come again, let's break up and see what I will do to her! If she comes later, she will be punished first!"

Tanchun couldn't help feeling suspicious.After all, this is the Lin Mansion, if Daiyu doesn't come, she will start a society, and she probably feels a little uneasy in her heart.

But Baochai went to Xiangyun's side, stretched out his hand to pinch her cheek, and said with a smile, "You're the only one who talks a lot. Speaking of the former three girls and the frown girl, did the frown girl agree? There must be some delay." Well, she just won't be free for a while."

Xiangyun shouted: "Sister Bao! You are speaking for Sister Lin again!"

Although Yingchun and Xichun are also waiting, they are more casual than others, and now they have even picked up the chess pieces to play.As for Xiangling, she was also invited and came early, and she is still reading this collection of poems today.

After a while, Daiyu still did not come. Both Tanchun and Baochai said that they should wait a little longer. Xiangyun was a little bored for a while, so he simply moved to Xiangling's side, patted her on the shoulder and looked at her holding the bag in her hand. book.

"Sister Ling, you only read poetry anthology now, what's the use of it?"

Xiangling was taken aback by her, and looked up for a while before she seemed to recognize Xiangyun.

She put down the book, rubbed her eyes, and said with a smile: "So it's Miss Yun. I just thought that I have no other hobbies in my daily life. I just read these poems, and I seem to be able to understand something. It's very interesting. Now There is nothing else to do, why not read a few more poems."

Xiangyun muttered: "That's you. You only read poetry, but you don't read anything else?"

Xiangyun has always loved poetry, but after all, he likes to read and play more than Xiangling.

While Xiangyun was talking, Tanchun suddenly heard him laughing and said, "Isn't this Sister Lin coming? Girl Yun, why don't you take a look? Sister Lin is not the only one here!"

"What?" Xiangyun didn't think much about it at first, he only thought that the person Tanchun wanted to talk about was Zijuan, Xueyan and other girls who followed Daiyu.

Hearing the difference in other people's tone, and seeing that even Yingchun and Xichun got up and walked out of the pavilion, they hurriedly turned their heads.

It is true that Daiyu did not come here by herself, Baoyu and Baoqin followed.

Xiangyun was taken aback, and blurted out "I love brother".

Baoyu asked people to arrange the white crabapple flowers they had brought, and then he wanted to talk about family life with his sisters.Although they were just commonplace chatter, since everyone had parted with him for a long time, gossip had its own taste.

It is also rare for Baochai to pull Baoqin to ask about things in Rongfu, for fear that Baoqin will suffer in Rongfu.

Daiyu and Tanchun apologized: "It's a coincidence that I just came today, and Baoyu and sister Qin came. I wanted to bring them here, and I wouldn't waste the time, so I didn't order anyone to come and tell you One sound. Who would have thought that Chongyu and Baoyu would say something to each other again, and they stayed in the study for a while before they came out."

"Huh?" Hearing this, Xiangyun pulled Baoyu and asked with a smile, "Second brother, when did you get so close to Chongyu?"

Baoyu looked at Daiyu shyly, but seeing Daiyu didn't seem to care, and seeing Xiangyun looking up at her, full of expectation, Baoyu didn't know what to say.

Are you close to Chongyu?Of course not.He has something to ask Chongyu, Fang is true.

Of the three notes written by Chongyu in his purse, he only read two of them in Jinling City.Still on the way back, because he was traveling with Yucun, it was very inconvenient. He had no time to read miscellaneous books, nor did he have the heart to read the Four Books, so he simply took out the third purse Daiyu gave him, and carefully looked at what Chongyu left in it. note.

The contents inside really startled Baoyu.

Chongyu seemed to have known that he was going outside, and he would definitely feel uncomfortable. Even if there were Chongyu's first two notes pointing him to what to pay attention to, Chongyu was still in the last note. Unable to adapt to the life outside, he only wanted to return to Rongguo Mansion. After the good news came from Yuanchun, he could ask Jia Zheng to allow him to go to the capital first in the name of congratulating Yuanchun.

Although Baoyu didn't follow Chongyu's note and acted according to the plan before he got the opportunity to return to Beijing, but Jia Zheng's actions were not much different from what the note said?It's just that there is another provincial court that Chongyu didn't mention, so Jia Zheng himself has to send Baoyu back to Beijing!

Because of this, Baoyu came to Lin's house today, although he was thinking of meeting the sisters earlier, but Chongyu invited him to talk in the study, so he went, and talked with Chongyu in the study for a long time.

At first, he only talked about what happened to Baoyu in Jinling, but later Baoyu couldn't help but want to mention Jiayu Village with Chongyu.

On the way back to Beijing, when Yucun and Baoyu get along, there is a lot of flattery in their words and deeds. Although they don't show it deliberately, but Baoyu's natural intelligence and criticism of Yucun early, maybe he didn't notice it?Baoyu knew that Yucun used to be the teacher of Chongyu and Daiyu in the past, but now that Yucun has such disgusting words and deeds, he is afraid that Chongyu and others will not know Yucun's true face and be deceived by him, so he wants to take the opportunity to remind him.

But Baoyu didn't know that, in fact, Jia Yucun's attitude towards the Lin family had changed as early as after Jia Yucun lost his position as inspector of salt in Lin Ruhai and returned to Beijing.

In particular, Jia Yucun solved Xue Pan's life lawsuit, took the opportunity to climb into the Wang family, and even got in touch with Wang Ziteng more. Although he knew that Daiyu was favored in the Rongguo Mansion, and vaguely heard that Lin Ruhai might be the emperor's other arrangements, Instead of really losing power, he wanted to cling to the Lin family again, but after the recovery, Jia Yucun, on the way to becoming an official, was no longer like Yucun in the past, but Ruhai had already known about it.

What's more, Chongyu has always been wary of Yucun, so how could he be really used by Yucun?But Baoyu can remind him of these things, which makes Chongyu look up to him a few times.It's just that Baoyu doesn't know about these things.

Now Xiangyun wants to ask Baoyu why he and Chongyu are so close and can talk for so long. Although Baoyu is in a hurry, he also thinks of an excellent reason.

Baoyu laughed and said, "Brother Chongyu and I haven't seen each other for a long time. Now I have something to say. What's so strange? Besides, I met brother Xue Biao a few days ago, and I knew he was busy these days, so I asked him if he was busy." What, now that I know what he did with Chongyu, I can't announce it to the outside world. Even if they and I are relatives, I can't say it without Chongyu's consent. I'm going to see Chongyu today. How can you not ask?"

Xiangyun lived in Lin's house these days, and because she is a female family member, it is inconvenient to have contact with the men in the front yard, so she has never seen Xue Biao very often, but she also heard about Xue Biao from Guo Sixi, who often came to Xiqiong Courtyard to play, and even Xue Biao Tiao also asks someone to bring something to Baochai from time to time, so he has no doubts about Baoyu's words, and just smiles: "Qin'er just came earlier, and I said that if you were here, you would definitely get along with her brother and sister. in this way!"

Everyone laughed for a while, and Du Baoqin was a little embarrassed.
