Daiyu's life

Chapter 47

Mrs. Cai's old daughter is also two or three years older than Daiyu. Mrs. Cai really likes Daiyu. After two days, she posted a post for Daiyu. Cai Yahui held a small flower festival. During the banquet, Daiyu told Mother Jia, and after packing up, she took Wang Sifu over there.

Cai Yahui can't be considered a great beauty, she can't keep up with Sanchun. Miss Cai is wearing a water blue emerald smoked sweater, a pleated skirt scattered with water mist and green grass, wearing a light blue emerald water thin veil, and her shoulders are cut into waists. If the muscle is fat-condensed, the gas is like an orchid.With a slender waist and light steps, and a bright wrist in a light gauze, it gives people the feeling of a book beauty. A person like her should drink a cup of green tea and look at the poems and books with a trace of sadness in the misty rain. When people saw it, they felt good about her and couldn't help but get close to her.

Daiyu said, "Auntie is well." Mrs. Cai pulled Daiyu over with a smile, pointed to Miss Cai and said, "This is my youngest daughter. Her nickname is Yahui. You can call her sister Hui." Yahui said, "This is the elder sister of your two junior brothers, whose nickname is Daiyu."

Daiyu said, "Sister Yahui." Yahui said, "Sister Yu'er." Mrs. Cai laughed and said, "Good boy, go play in the back, don't live here anymore."

Yahui smiled and took Daiyu away, Yahui smiled and said to Daiyu, "The two younger brothers often advance you with your mother, and my mother often tells me that I have long wanted to see sister Yu'er. Keeping the filial piety, the two juniors have no choice but to stay out to study, but it is not easy to invite sister Yu'er over, this time it can be regarded as meeting."

Daiyu smiled and said, "They haven't mentioned Sister Yahui much."

Ya Hui laughed and said, "Ever since my father took in apprentices a few years ago, my mother has been strict with these matters. Most of my brothers and sisters have never seen me, but my nephews went to class with them. I I know more."

Daiyu laughed and said, "That kid Haoyu is naughty, he seems to have won a serial jade pendant from a brother in the house in a bet."

Yahui laughed and said, "That belongs to my fourth nephew, and they were more naughty when they were naughty. Those who win things are good, even those who bet on hands." Daiyu listened with a smile all the time, Yahui Seeing that Daiyu liked to listen, she talked about a lot of little things about Haoxuan Haoyu when he was in school.

Daiyu smiled and said helplessly, "Mr. An taught the two of them when we were at home. I saw that they were fine, so I thought they were obedient when they came to the house. Who knew they were so naughty. I didn’t say anything, if I didn’t meet my sister today, I wouldn’t know anything about it.”

Yahui said indifferently, "Their boys all look the same, and so do our little nephews. Sister Yu'er, don't talk about the two juniors when she goes back."

Daiyu smiled and said, "For Sister Yahui's sake, I will go around them, and when they make mistakes at home, I will catch them and punish them."

Yahui said, "Okay."

Daiyu was the first one to come, which is Madam Cai's idea, let Yahui get acquainted with Daiyu first, and after a while, all the girls from various families will come, so Yahui can help introduce her.

The second one to arrive was the daughter of Mr. Ke's family, one older than Yahui was a concubine's daughter, the other was only four or five years old and was a concubine's daughter, Yahui introduced, "This is Daiyu from Mrs. Lin's family. This is the young uncle of Mr. Ke's family, You An."

The three met each other, and after a while, girls from three or four families came. Everyone knew everyone here. Yahui only introduced Daiyu one by one. They chatted together.

Ke Youan, like Yahui, is an old woman. Mrs. Ke dotes on her more, and raised her to be a bit innocent. When no one was around, she sneaked over to Daiyu and said, "Sister Yuer, my mother is fine. If you If you are not happy staying at your grandparent’s house, come to my house. My mother likes girls. Sister Yu’er looks so good-looking. My mother likes you. A few days ago, my mother was still at home praising you. .”

Daiyu couldn't laugh or cry, Ke Youbo saw it and hurried over to get his sister away, looked at Daiyu apologetically and said, "I hope sister Yuer doesn't care, You'an is a little younger, and my mother hasn't had time to teach her how to behave."

Daiyu shook her head indifferently and said, "You'an is such a great idea, I should be happy when I say it, if sister You'an doesn't like me, she can't invite me either."

The young uncle saw that Daiyu was really not angry, so he was relieved. Originally, You'an should not be allowed to go out with his sister as a guest at such a young age, but the relationship between the Ke family and the Cai family is relatively good, and You'an also likes to go out Mrs. Ke was reluctant to live in You'an, so she asked someone to bring her here. Before leaving the house, Mrs. Ke told Uncle to take good care of You'an. If Daiyu really felt that You'an's words were on purpose, If she got angry and went home to let Mrs. Ke know, she would not be able to speak clearly even if she had a mouth.

The Cai family came into contact with noble families, not to mention that the girls of each family are well-spoken, and they also have a few taels of ink in their stomachs. The narcissus coming out of the Cai family’s greenhouse is also very beautiful, so interesting, how many bigger ones? The girl said she was composing poems, and Daiyu naturally had no objection, and a few smaller ones made people burn incense and watch the time.

It's good that Daiyu came here without saying anything, and she wrote it in a short while, but one of the sentences laughed at Fu Weng for being too rouge, and mistakenly mistook Gaoya for Chanjuan.It made all the women praise her unceasingly, Cai Yahui was the leader, Daiyu came second, and Ke Youbo came second.

For today's flower viewing banquet, Yahui has spent a lot of time and effort. After lunch, there are games such as throwing pots and double roads. At night, all the girls return home after enjoying themselves. Said, "After a few days, the two orchids at home have bloomed. At that time, our sisters will get together in Haosheng."

Daiyu smiled and said, "Sister Yahui must not forget."

Cai Yahui responded with a smile, and said, "I must not dare to forget."

Wang Sifu looked at Daiyu's excited little red face and said with a smile, "Girl, did you have a good time today?"

Daiyu nodded with a smile and said, "I had so much fun. The last time I had such a good time was when I first met Sister Yan in Yangzhou." At that time, Daiyu didn't know about Jia Min's condition or the crisis of the Lin family She was just a little girl who wished she would never grow up under the pampering of her parents.

Moreover, Jia Baoyu always said that married girls are pearls, even Ke Youbo, a concubine who lives under the aunt's hand, is happy and sad, and lives contentedly, without the worries of future generations, all the girls are happy. With a pure and beautiful heart.

***

When the orchids of the Cai family were in bloom, Daiyu failed to see them, and left two relatives and friends. Then came the news that the Beiting was closed on February 24.

A large number of refugees are coming towards the capital, and the first refugees have already set up camp outside the city. Fortunately, the weather is much warmer now, and there is a fire at night. Or the elderly and children, most of the rich families in Beijing have provided rice noodles and other things to help the victims.

The Rongning Second Mansion is no exception. Qin Keqing came here with Youshi. The two mansions have discussed it so that we can act together. This is the first time Daiyu has seen Qin Keqing. She always missed it for various reasons before. Qin Keqing is worthy of being Mr. Cao. Daiyu didn't know what she would look like in the future as the number one beauty in the painting, but compared with the charming and graceful Qin Keqing, this lolita look could make people throw three mountains away.

Hearing that they were going to talk, Daiyu was about to leave after meeting Youshi Keqing, at this time Mrs. Wang asked with a smile, "The niece is also going to help the victims. If so, the porridge sheds of our two families will be separated." Soon, it will be easy to take care of it when the time comes.”

Daiyu smiled and said, "The porridge sheds should have been set up, most of them are near Master Cai's house." You don't set up porridge sheds casually, Daiyu's grandfather has a title, and the relationship between the Lin family and the nobles It's pretty close, but the problem is that Lin Ruhai came from the real imperial examinations, so why don't you squeeze into the ranks of nobles? Isn't this just waiting for someone to poke Lin Ruhai's backbone? Scholars' mouths are not so easy to mess with.

When Mrs. Wang heard that Daiyu refused, she didn't say anything more, and Daiyu came out with Sanchun Baochai.

Tanchun laughed and said, "I don't know how Sister Lin's porridge shed is built, but it is often done in the house. If there are not enough people, it would be good for the old lady to send two people to Sister Lin."

Daiyu raised her eyebrows and smiled, I don't know if Xichun was really awakened by Cichun, but the three Cimei girls put aside their sharpness a little bit, caring about their sisters and brothers by being filial to their grandmothers and aunts, and caring for Daiyu's living cousin She was no longer a jealous little girl, but Dai Yugao took a look at it, and Dai Yu said, "These things are often done at home in Yangzhou, and I watched it a few times with my mother, so it's not bad. "

Xichun asked, "Has the porridge shed at Sister Bao's house been set up?"

Baochai smiled gently and said, "It's all done. Even my family has just moved to Beijing this year, and the tenants collect money. There is not much food. I don't know how much I can buy at this time."

Daiyu said, "In a few days, all the food from the south will be delivered."

Baochai smiled and said, "That's good, and we can save more refugees then."

Baoyu said, "Those Tartars are really hateful, and what's even more hateful is that those country thieves and ghosts in the court know how to enjoy themselves all day long, but at this time they have no voice."

Daiyu looked at Baoyu as if she was looking at a fool. Such an ignorant person could say such a thing. Baochai looked at Daiyu with impatience that could hardly be concealed. Baochai's back teeth ached from biting her teeth, so she even pulled out a smile.

Chen Siji walked back with Daiyu while shaking his head and said, "If the old lady doesn't take Erye Bao's temper well, she won't let him become a weapon in the future. When the family is separated in the future, it will be a question of whether or not they can stand together. "

Daiyu shook her head and said, "Brother Touzhu left at such a young age, the old lady and the second wife were very sad, how could they persecute him when he came to the second cousin? Great fortune, the old lady and the second wife will only love her more."

Daiyu didn't want to talk about Jia Baoyu, and asked, "Mr. Wang, why haven't they come back? I always feel my heart beating."

Chen Siji looked at Shi Chen and said, "Hurry up, take so many people out, it will be fine no matter what."

Daiyu nodded. Daiyu, who was able to send food to the Lin family’s Zhuangzi this year, asked them to deliver food. The Lin family’s food storage is really not small, and the porridge shed in the family’s grain storage can cook porridge even if it is kept on fire every day. Two or three years, not to mention that the porridge shed at home can't be like this, and it can't be too much more than the official house.

Daiyu asked people to send a lot of food to Hongwen Temple. Hongwen Temple is quite reliable. When the victims first arrived, the temple bought a lot of food at their own expense and distributed it to the victims for free. Daiyu and Hongwen Temple The Great Monk also had contact with him before, and he was quite at ease with him. Su Yang went to set up a porridge shed for the Lin family, and Wang Sifu went to Hongwen Temple.

After waiting for a while, Zi Wang Sifu came back. When he came back, his face was fine, and he said, "Every family's porridge sheds have been set up, and some people have distributed some coarse clothes and other things, and there are people who distribute medicinal materials. Our family Some of the purchased medicinal materials were also distributed."

Wang Sifu took out a string of Buddhist beads from his bosom, handed them to Daiyu and said, "Master Kongwu gave these to Haoyu, and said that the master has carried them since he was a child."

Daiyu felt relieved, if there was a war ahead and a civil uprising in the rear, then it would be really lively. Now that the situation outside is fine, she took the Buddha beads over happily. It's really not a good wood, the most common peach wood, It's just that people hold it in their hands every day and it becomes extremely smooth, and the body has a luster of time, which makes people like it. Yu asked happily, "Master, did you say something else?"

Wang Sifu shook his head and said, "Where are they outsiders willing to say so clearly, just let Haoyu take it with them."

Daiyu put it away carefully, and said, "When Haoyu comes back at night, I will put it on for him."

Daiyu put the Buddha beads on Haoyu, and Haosheng told him, "Be careful, don't be mischievous with it, do you hear me?"

Haoyu obediently agreed, and Daiyu smiled happily.

The arrival of the refugees did not affect the level of singing and dancing in Beijing, but the men from rich families brought more guards when they went out, and the female relatives were having fun at home, and they seldom walked outside.The girls of Jia's family seldom walked around, and Daiyu and his brother had been observing filial piety for the past two years, so their lives are not much different from those in the past. ,

Baochai Tanchun's attitude towards Daiyu is much better now, Tanchun occasionally mentions a few words to welcome the spring, and there is a scene of sisters and sisters in harmony, and Baochai often comes to talk to Daiyu. When Chai came over, Daiyu was sewing with Xichun.

The embroiderers of the Lin family were all brought over from Yangzhou. Before Jia Min passed away, she didn’t care much about Daiyu’s upright embroidery. After she kept her filial piety, Daiyu only studied it seriously for two years. She couldn’t compare with the serious embroiderers. Not bad for a little thing.

Baochai took it in his hand and looked at it, and said happily, "It's such a bright job, I can't see that Sister Lin's hands are so skillful."

Xichun stuck out her tongue with her back turned to Daiyu, but Daiyu ignored her and said, "The pattern of the flower was drawn by the fourth sister, and the color was chosen by the husband, I just sewed a few stitches on it.

Baochai smiled slightly, and then sat down to talk to Daiyu Xichun about the homework, Baochai said, "There are so many refugees outside these days, Brother Lin, you should be careful when you go out."

Daiyu said, "They all have guards, and the security in the inner city is pretty good."

Baochai sighed, "I don't know when this day will be the first. I heard from my brother that there are more refugees outside the city."

Daiyu was more concerned than Baochai, and said, "Yes, usually two or three stones of grain per day is enough for the porridge shed, but now three and a half stones is enough."

Baochai paused for a moment and did not speak. The porridge shed of Xue's family only had a stone and a half of grain a day, and Aunt Xue still disliked a lot of it. With the rise in food prices during the war, and the fact that the servants were protecting their private pockets, Xue’s family could order 50 taels of silver a day. It’s better to arrive in a day and a half. Said to tear down Xue's porridge shed.

The battle ahead is still stalemate, the Tartars can't attack Lancheng, and Daqi's army can't drive the Tartars back to the Beiting Pass. The number of refugees is increasing day by day. It's good if Daiyu doesn't go out. Xuan Haoyu and others went for a walk outside the city. After Hao Xuan Haoyu came back, he not only sent more food to Hongwen Temple, but also asked Su Yang to buy a lot from Jiangnan and send them to Hongwen Temple.

Today, Haoxuan Haoyu went outside the city with Master Cai again, and he will be back soon.

Xichun looked at the time and knew that Haoxuan Haoyu was coming back, so she stood up and said, "Sister Bao, let's go back."

Baochai said, "I want to have a good meal at Sister Lin's place today. How about Fourth Sister staying?"

Xichun said, "Brother Xuan and Brother Yu have gone out for a day, and they will be back soon. My sister is worried all day. If we are not there, they can still come in and have a good talk with my sister. When we are over, the two of them It's almost time to do homework, how can my sister bother me, if my sister Bao eats, she will eat as much as she wants at noon tomorrow."

Baochai got up with a slightly red face and said, "I was just joking with the fourth younger sister. The fourth younger sister's small mouth is like a knife, and she really won't give in a word. Forget it, I won't make trouble with you, let's go back now."

Daiyu didn't stay in vain, but got up and sent Baochai Xichun back.

When Haoxuan Haoyu came back, his expression was not very good, and Daiyu asked, "What's the matter?"

Haoyu said in a muffled voice, "Sister, there are a lot more refugees, and more and more people are getting sick, and many of them have died."

Hao Xuan frowned and said, "Sister, the battle ahead seems to be getting worse, please tell Dad when you write to him."

Daiyu was worried and had no choice but to respond. Knowing that Lin Ruhai knew more about the situation in Beijing than Daiyu's siblings, she still told Lin Ruhai about the situation in Beijing when she wrote the letter.

Mother Jia raised Jia Baoyu like a girl, and never let Baoyu go out since the outbreak of the war. Baoyu is as long as she has older sisters, and her life is not boring. That day, for some reason, she thought of Shi Xiangyun. Mother Jia is going to take Shi Xiangyun over.

Mother Jia calculated Shi Xiangyun's filial piety, and nodded in agreement. Shi Xiangyun's aunt, Shi Taijun's nephew and daughter-in-law passed away a few years ago. After the filial piety period passed, Jia's mother didn't think of her for a while, but when Zi Baoyu mentioned it, Jia's mother also sent someone to bring Shi Xiangyun over.

Daiyu was practicing calligraphy with a small sandbag tied on her wrist, and she was writing that Xue Juan came in and said to Daiyu, "Girl, Sister Glass from the old lady's side came over and said that Miss Shi from Shijia is here, and the old lady asked the girl to go and meet her. "

Daiyu finished writing and asked, "But the old lady's natal family, the eldest girl of Shuanghou Shi's family." Xuejuan said, "Yes."

Xuejuan stepped forward and untied the sandbag from Daiyu's hand. Xuecui led someone in to help Daiyu freshen up. The small high bun, with the white jade Xiyan flower head chain, is not too overwhelming, but also quite eye-catching.

When they arrived at Jiamu's place, Shi Xiangyun and Baoyu were chatting and laughing around Jiamu. Jiamu was very happy to see Daiyu coming in, and greeted Daiyu, "Come here, good boy. I have seen you, sister Yun."

Shi Xiangyun's appearance is not very beautiful, but he has a hearty look on his body. He wears a red embroidered sunflower gold dress with a small phoenix on his head. feeling.

Daiyu said, "Sister Yun." Shi Xiangyun said, "Sister Lin." Shi Xiangyun tilted his head to look at Daiyu for a while, then pouted and said to Baoyu, "Okay, dear brother, why didn't you send you to pick me up?" , It turns out that you have a better new sister, so you must have forgotten about me long ago."

Daiyu felt that her knees hurt a little, which was the highest interpretation of being shot while lying down.

Xichun pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Second brother not only has a new sister, but also a new sister."

Shi Xiangyun said, "New sister, who is that?"

Tanchun smiled and said, "She is the daughter of our wife's natal sister. Sister Bao is the most kind person."

Just as Mrs. Wang came over with Baochai, Mrs. Wang smiled and said to Shi Xiangyun, "I haven't seen you in a few years. The big girl has grown up so much."

Shi Xiangyun snuggled up to the second wife with a smile and said, "I haven't seen my aunt for a long time, but I miss me to death."

Mrs. Wang hugged him in her arms and said, "This time the eldest girl can come out and walk around too. When the time comes, my aunt will send someone to pick you up."

Shi Xiangyun happily agreed, Shi Xiangyun crossed Mrs. Wang's shoulder, looked like Baochai behind Mrs. Wang and said, "This is Sister Bao."

Mrs. Wang said kindly, "Yes." Baochai stepped forward and the two greeted each other, and after a while they became familiar with each other, and everyone's sisters and sisters cried out how affectionate they were.

Shi Xiangyunguang looks like a very likable girl, cheerful and generous, laughing loudly, casual and free and easy, which can arouse people's happy emotions unconsciously. Of course, if she doesn't have a little bit of unknown hostility towards herself, Daiyu thinks that she I'd love this girl too.

When Shi Xiangyun first arrived, she and Baoyu Sanchun were acquainted since they were young, and Shi Xiangyun is also talkative and laughing, so after such a long separation, there must be something to talk about, even Yingchun and Shi Xiangyun can say a few more words.

Shi Xiangyun smiled and took out the small things he made at home and distributed them to everyone. Mother Jia wiped their foreheads, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang had a pair of shoes, and Daiyu and others were small things like purses. Taking a closer look, they are pretty good at their age. Daiyu has never seen Baochai's needlework. Shi Xiangyunxiu's handkerchief is no worse than her own and Sanchun's. Daiyu smiled and it seems that Shi Xiangyun is also It's not true that everything should be done to your heart's content, it's just right to be unhappy.

Mrs. Wang boasted Shi Xiangyun's needle and thread, and said to Jia Mu with a smile, "I haven't seen this big girl for two years. She really has grown up. She is really incomparable to her naughty appearance when she was a child."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "When the girl grows up, she looks different every day."

Mrs. Wang said very sadly, "No, I still remember that Yuan Chun asked me to eat dumplings when I was a child, and she would feed Baoyu dumplings in a blink of an eye, and now Baoyu is so big."

Jia's mother is also distressed. Mrs. Wang's three children grew up in front of Jia's mother. Jia's mother loves Baoyu the most, and her heart for Yuanchun and Jiazhu is not bad. Jiazhu left early, thinking of Yuanchun who entered the palace for the family Jia's mother was also feeling uncomfortable, waiting for Baoyu to lead the sisters out to play.

Jia's mother said, "Yuanchun is a lucky person. There will be great fortune in the future. She has suffered a lot in the palace in recent years. This year, the money given to Yuanchun will be increased by 5000 taels so that she can take good care of her body. "

Mrs. Wang wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "There are noble concubines and empresses in the palace to take care of them. The days of Yuanchun are good. The family is giving enough now. If it is not enough, I will have some private houses to fill in. It's just me as a mother." I always think more, when I look at the big girl, I think of Yuanchun, so..." Madam Wang said with a sigh.

No matter what Mrs. Wang is trying to subdue, at least these words are pleasing to the ears of Jia Mu. Jia Mu said, "Yuan girl only entered the palace for our family, and there is a subsidy from you as a mother. If our Rongguo Mansion can't even support a girl, just listen to me."

Mrs. Wang lowered her head and smiled, "It's all about the kindness of the old lady."

Mrs. Xing's eyes were about to burst into flames. This Yuanchun's silver was added as soon as she said it would be added. When she arrived at Jia Lian's place, she wanted to delay it again and again. This partiality was too much. Jia's mother seemed to feel Mrs. Xing's gaze, and suddenly Looking at Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Xing was startled, and she quickly lowered her head.

Mother Jia glared at Mrs. Xing, and let the two of them go, not telling them to set the rules.

Mrs. Wang glanced at Mrs. Xing very reservedly, and was so angry that Mrs. Xing was so angry that she wished to rush over to give Mrs. Wang two slaps, so she could only go back to Rongxi hall angrily, and complained to Jia She, "Master, this old lady is eccentric." It's too much, and it's not easy for Lian'er and his wife to be away. The supply money in this mansion is forced by the master. Besides, the old lady doesn't make up for it. It's good for the eldest girl. The old lady can't make up for it in private. Forget it, there is another 5000 taels of silver in this business, and the money in our family was blown by the strong wind."

Now Jia She does not sleep with Auntie during the day, he changed to playing with birds, teasing with the newly acquired little thrush, he was not angry after hearing Mrs. Xing's words, and said, "What can you complain about? Didn't the second child invite two more children?" Are you a clearer? Tomorrow, I’m going to buy some antiques. When the time comes, you can choose some jewelry. You can keep some and send some to Lian’s daughter-in-law. Lian’s daughter-in-law is back again. No one in this house cares. , that is the grandson in our house."

Mrs. Xing stopped complaining after hearing this, and said to Jia She with a smile, "Brother Mao is only a little old, so he is enlightened. The big characters are well-written. I heard from Lian's daughter-in-law that Mr. Enlightenment is still a Master Juren."

Jia Amnesty thought of Jia Mao with a smile on his face. When Jia Mao was two years old, Uncle Zhang sent a gentleman to Anhuai to teach Jia Mao. He made it clear that if Jia Lian and his wife dare to spoil their children, let him know and directly discount Jia Lian's legs. In this way, the child lived a life of holding a pen at the age of two.

Mrs. Wang also let out a sigh of relief when she returned to the East Courtyard. She really had no other choice, so she bowed her head to Mother Jia. The private house in her hand had shrunk by more than half after passing through the Zhang family, and Mrs. Xing had given the housekeeping power to Mrs. Xing. Go a little further, because Mrs. Xing cares about trivial matters, and Mrs. Xing can't help but always look at Mrs. Wang, making Mrs. Wang do too badly. Later, Mrs. Wang offended Jia's mother several times, not to mention Zhong Gongzhong To make money, I also subsidize some from time to time. In order to prevent Baoyu from marrying Daiyu, Mrs. Wang also recognized it, but this Yuanchun's expenses are getting bigger and bigger, and Mrs. Wang can't stand it anymore. She not only has Yuanchun but also Baoyu. , so I had to bow my head to Mother Jia, which was really like stabbing Mrs. Wang in the heart.

Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue cried, "This Yuanchun is only my daughter's failure. If I hadn't lowered my head today, the old lady in Yuanchun didn't know how long it would take. She sent Yuanchun in so cruelly. How much suffering."

Aunt Xue persuaded, "My sister also wants to be more open. When the eldest girl gains power and Baoyu has a bright future, who dares to underestimate my sister? This old lady is also a grandmother no matter what. No one can surpass my sister."

Mrs. Wang wiped away her tears and took Aunt Xue's hand and said with a smile, "I borrowed my sister's good words."

Aunt Xue said, "Baoyu is a man of good fortune, so how can he not be out of breath."

After Mrs. Wang left, Jia Mu smiled with satisfaction, and asked with a smile, "Yuanyang, go and see what Baoyu and the girl are doing, and send them the bean curd buns, so they don't make them mischievous."

Yuanyang smiled and went away, Yingchun Xichun Daiyu was playing around a white-haired puppy that Jia Rongxiao respected Xichun, not long after she opened her eyes, the puppy is too cute to be as big as a palm.

Yingchun saw Yuanyang coming in first, got up and said, "Why is Sister Yuanyang here, but the old lady has something to say."

Yuanyang smiled and said, "Let me deliver the bean curd buns I just got from the old lady to the girls."

Xichun said, "Thank you, Sister Yuanyang, come and sit with Sister Yuanyang for a while." Daiyu also nodded to express her gratitude to Yuanyang.

Yuanyang shook her head and said, "The old lady is still waiting for me, Miss Yun, Miss Bao and the others."

Yingchun said, "The peach blossoms next to the flower hall in the back are blooming, and they all passed by."

Yuanyang smiled and said, "Why didn't the second and fourth girls, Miss Lin, go over to have a look? The old lady Taohua agreed."

Yingchun said, "I was blown by the wind last night, so it's not easy to walk around. The two of them can't walk anymore looking at this little thing, and they will go to see peach blossoms there."

Yuanyang looked down, and Daiyu Xichun turned around the little milk dog again, Daiyu stopped Xichun from feeding the puppy with bean curd buns, but Xichun refused, the puppy smelled the scent and groaned and chirped In the past, the two laughed together again.

The mandarin duck shook and said, "I'll go back to the old lady first, the second girl will watch for a while, and send someone to invite the second master Bao and the others back after a while, the sun is so scorching at noon. "

Yingchun responded softly.

Daiyu patted Xichun's unyielding little hand and said, "If you are like this, I will take Mao Mao away, and you will get sick after a few days."

Xichun held the puppy and said, "What about Mao Mao Mao Mao? Since you came, I have fallen out of favor with my sister. Even if I fell out of favor, I would not be willing to send you away. What should I do?"

Yingchun shook her head helplessly and said, "It's becoming more and more like a starling. This little mouth can't stop talking, and it makes people headache. Brother Rong should get a starling, come over and let you talk to it." Xichun's rare blushing.

Daiyu heard that Yingchun, who was always honest, said such words, she just laughed and fell on Yingchun and said, "Amitabha, finally someone understands me."

The embarrassment on Xichun's face flashed away, and then she said straightforwardly, "I am already like this now, even if my sister worships many Buddhas, there are no more. If you have the strength to chant Buddha, why don't you stay and listen to me."

Yingchun Daiyu let Xichun make nothing to say, but Wang Sifu said, "I think the fourth girl is pretty good, she has good manners, and she will be less bullied if she speaks louder."

Yingchun's face was gloomy, Daiyu looked at it and said with a smile, "Sir, please don't praise her anymore, this little tail is all up now, if you praise her, this little tail won't fly away."

Daiyu said that the puppy in Xichun's hand actually wagged its tail, Yingchun's depression dissipated, and she couldn't be happier.

After listening to the mandarin duck's return, Mother Jia remained silent. Daiyu and Mother Jia lived far away. Must go, Baoyu also likes to chase after Daiyu, Baoyu is Jiamu's best friend, and she has some knots in her heart after seeing Jiamu like this every day.

Daiyu only came to Jiamu's place more often in the past two months when she was born as a filial piety. Daiyu's weight in Jiamu's heart is naturally not as high as that of Baoyu. In my mother's heart, she was very kind to Daiyu's sister and brother, and Daiyu avoided Baoyu like this at all because she didn't give her face. Not to mention that Mrs. Wang's reputation outside is even worse, and Mother Jia also forced Mrs. Wang to bow her head. Even the head jewelry Jia Mu gave Daiyu is enough. Daiyu is still like this. angry.

Jia's mother downplayed the idea of ​​Daiyu being Baoyu's daughter-in-law. Daiyu is good for a hundred, and she can't be good for Baoyu.

Jia Mu's tone of mentioning Daiyu's sister and brother was a little light, not as good as Shi Xiangyun. Jia Mu said, "After all, she must have grown up since she was a child. It has been a long time since this girl Yun came. She is still so close to Baoyu and the others." Thick." Yuanyang knew how Jiamu couldn't hear Jiamu's meaning, so she had two thoughts about Daiyu in her heart.

Even though Yuanyang had two thoughts in his heart, he still persuaded, "Miss Lin is accompanied by two adults, Chen Siji and Wang Sifu. It is inevitable that people who come out of the palace will pay more attention. Miss Lin can't help it."

Mother Jia sighed and said, "It's Min'er who left early, otherwise how could it be so. My uncle also got these two big Buddhas, let alone Yu'er, even I speak politely, I don't know what to do What people say is good."

Yuanyang bowed her head and said nothing.

Mrs. Wang, who was still complaining to Aunt Xue in the East Courtyard, didn't know that because of her bowing her head, she made Jia's mother spend all her time thinking about Daiyu, which made Jia's mother have a grudge against Daiyu. If Mrs. Wang knew, she would I can wake up with a smile in my dream.

Xiangyun held a peach blossom and asked with a smile, "Brother Ai, why is there a female official behind Sister Lin?"

Baoyu said depressedly, "When my aunt went, my uncle was worried about Sister Lin. I did not know where to get two female officials, and they followed Sister Lin day and night. It was really annoying."

Xiang Yun said, "Isn't there only one, maybe there is another one."

Baoyu said, "There's another one guarding the house in the front yard. Sister Yun, you don't know how hateful they are, and it doesn't matter if you want to say a word to Sister Lin."

Xiangyun laughed and said, "Brother Ai's tone, he must have suffered under the hands of the two adults, right?"

Tanchun Baochai just heard this sentence when he walked over with his hands together, Tanchun laughed and said, "If I could, my second elder brother would wish to drive Mr. Chen and Mr. Wang home."

Xiang Yun smiled and said, "When I go back later, I have to take a good look at Mr. Wang, there are not many people who can make my second brother feel embarrassed."

Baochai said, "Sister Lin's rules are stricter than ours, and Uncle Lin in the scholarly family has only one daughter, Sister Lin, and Aunt Lin is gone, so it's inevitable that she will take more care."

Tanchun smiled and said, "Sister Lin, this is all considered good. The two cousins ​​have rarely come to the inner courtyard since they turned seven years old. Please An is half an hour earlier than us. The last time we saw each other was when the Lin family got rid of their uniforms." Woolen cloth."

Xiang Yun wondered, "The rules of the Lin family are so strict."

Tanchun nodded and said, "It's just that the fourth sister and sister Lin are so good, and they rarely see the two cousins."

Xiang Yun was speechless and said, "This is too strict."

Tanchun smiled and said, "If you are not strict, the second elder brother can be so depressed."

Xiangyun looked at Baoyu next to him and giggled again, Baoyu said, "Well, sister Yun, fortunately, I still miss you so much, you will laugh at me when you come."

Shi Xiangyun smiled and said, "It's all my fault, so I won't laugh now."

Baoyu had no choice but to do anything to Xiangyun, so he could only laugh with her.

This year, Chunwei was postponed for a year due to the war in Beiting, and Mr. An and his wife still lived in the outer courtyard.
