Daiyu of the Red Chamber raised a cat

Five days later, Daiyu and Zhou Hang appeared in a small village thirty miles away in the eastern suburbs.

"This is the house deed, this is the land deed." Daiyu handed the house deed and the land deed to Mrs. Sun, standing in front of the three small tile-roofed houses and said, "Although there are only three houses, they are enough for you two to live in. Although there is not much land, as long as you are willing to work, food and clothing will not be a problem. The people here are simple and honest, and I have checked all the neighbors. They are all warm-hearted and kind, and they will not embarrass you orphans and widows. You just stay here. Worry about the capital, all resolved."

Sun looked at the three tile-roofed houses and opened her eyes wide, as if she couldn't believe it.

"Benefactor, it's really... solved...? Will it not implicate the benefactor?" Sun bowed her waist and said with trembling lips.

Daiyu glanced at her, and secretly thought that this woman was honest and upright, and she was afraid that their affairs would hurt herself and Zhou Hang.It was not in vain that I saved her. Thinking, she smiled, "Since I dare to rescue her, I naturally have the ability to protect myself. Don't worry, we won't be implicated."

Hearing this, Mrs. Sun pulled Ling'er down to her knees, and thanked Daiyu and Zhou Hang for saving her life in tears, with a sincere and heartfelt attitude.Daiyu and Zhou Hang are going to leave, and Sun's life and death will stay for dinner before leaving.

The two of them did not stay, and before they left, Daiyu took out two ingots of ten taels of horseshoe silver and gave them to Sun, but Sun refused to accept them, and thanked them with a thousand gratitude, saying that they had received such a great favor from Daiyu and Zhou Hang, It's the blessing of ten lifetimes of cultivation, and I already feel panic in my heart.Now their mother and daughter have a place to settle down. As long as they are not lazy and follow the rules, they will always be able to live a life without shortage of food and clothing. They must not be too greedy, otherwise God will not be able to see it, and they will be punished by God.

Speaking of this, Daiyu could only give up, but she admired Sun's ambition in her heart.

The imperial court's large-scale hunt for rebels is still going on, but Li Chengyu and other core figures have no news, as if the world has evaporated.But another person was caught, that is, the Ma Ye who robbed Daiyu in Yangzhou City back then, and was imprisoned in the sky prison for strict interrogation by the hidden guards.

Zhou Hang also recovered from his injury and appeared in court, and everything seemed to be on the right track again.

The only difference is that today's court hall is no longer the court hall of years ago, and all the top and bottom are the emperor's cronies.The veterans left behind by the Supreme Emperor in the cabinet and the Six Departments were either dismissed from office and ransacked their homes when they were involved in Li Chengyu's treason case, or they returned home and were honored and raised.Lin Ruhai officially became the chief assistant of the cabinet, Xie Anxiong became the prime minister and also became a member of the cabinet, Li Yu was promoted to the secretary of the household department, and became the youngest and most promising six ministers since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Zhou Hang went to see the Supreme Emperor once.

At that time, the old sage was listening to a beautiful and enchanting pipa girl playing the pipa. Seeing that Zhou Hangli did not call out immediately, it made him kneel for a long time before he suddenly remembered, and said lightly: "His Royal Highness is coming down!" , excuse me."

Zhou Hang didn't get angry with him, and talked lightly after taking his seat.

Zhou Hang just came to take a look, and didn't expect the Supreme Emperor to give him any good looks.Speaking of which, this stems from a little expectation in his heart.He had a childhood, and his grandfather was a calligrapher, and he doted on him very much.When Fa Xiao was not in elementary school, he practiced fluent calligraphy under the guidance of his grandfather. Fa Xiao's daily life was to act like a baby in front of his grandpa, and his catchphrase was that grandpa was the best in the world.When he was ten years old, his family immigrated to Northern Europe. Zhou Hang never saw him again, but the word "grandpa" was always in his heart.

In the past, Zhou Hang not only had no grandpa, but also no grandpa.

After this big event, for some reason, he wanted to see the Supreme Emperor, how he felt when he learned that his beloved grandson tried to put another grandson to death, and whether he felt a little guilty for the victimized grandson.

He was wrong, maybe countless of himself tied up to fill the earth, can't compare to the status of Li Chengyu in his heart.

The little hope in my heart was completely dissipated.

Just be a familiar stranger from now on, Zhou Hang thought.

Entering March, spring is full of flowers and flowers are in full bloom.After the death of his first wife, Wang Shuirong of Beijing married his successor concubine. I heard that this concubine's ancestors and father were both from Hanlin.The scholarly family cultivated her elegant taste of literati. When she was still in the boudoir, she liked to organize poetry clubs and flower fairs. She seemed to be the leader of the boudoir in Beijing and a recognized talented woman.No, as soon as she married into the Beijing Prince's Mansion, she started to hold a new round of flower viewing parties.

Daiyu also received an invitation from the Beijing Prince's Mansion. She didn't want to go at first, but the mother said that she was getting old and needed to participate in more social gatherings, learn how to behave in the world, and when she married into the royal family, she would have to meet wives Wait, you can't close the door and ignore everything.

Daiyu thought about it too, so she accepted the post.

When Princess Beijing heard that Daiyu was going, she was very flattered.The daughter of Lin Ge's hometown is weak and sick, and she stays behind closed doors all year round. She refuses all kinds of gatherings in Beijing, even the prince's mansion and princess mansion are no exception.This time I sent the post by myself, and I didn't intend to really invite this great god, but if I didn't send it, it would be considered neglectful, and I was afraid it would make him unhappy.Therefore, even though she knew that Daiyu would not go, she still sent the invitation with full courtesy.I thought it was just a formality, but I didn't expect people to reply that they would definitely arrive that day, isn't that surprising?

When Princess Beijing heard the reply from the woman who sent the post, she was afraid of getting it wrong, so she asked again: "Miss Lin really said she would come?"

The mother-in-law said: "My lady, I heard Miss Lin say with my own ears, 'Go back and tell your concubine, and tell her to remember that I will definitely go to the banquet on time.' Can there be a lie?"

Princess Beijing was overjoyed. Many concubines, princesses, and princesses in Beijing didn't have this face. I didn't expect the girl from the Lin family to give her so much face.

"Reward!" She waved her hand.

"Thank you, Concubine Wang, for the reward!" The mother-in-law followed the eldest girl of Princess Beijing to receive the reward with great gratitude.

The flower viewing event is scheduled for the sixth day of March.It was Ribei Jingwang Mansion, where there was a lot of traffic, a canopy carriage hadn't left yet, another one had come, and the line continued to the outside of the long street.Daiyu rode in a low-key emerald-covered Zhu Ying eight-treasure car, wearing a light-colored Hangzhou silk robe, with only a fresh pale pink peony flower on her hair, without any jewels, she looked fresh and elegant.

In front of the gate of the mansion, the carriage stopped slowly, and the servants handed over invitations, and came out of the mansion. Ten or twenty wives greeted Daiyu respectfully, and went all the way to the main room. The confidant's daughter-in-law waits outside the gate of the ceremony, and lets them into the main room to meet and serve tea.As for the other ladies, they naturally didn't have this treatment, and they all sat together in the flower hall.

After sitting for a while, Daiyu felt bored, what the concubine and concubine said were nothing more than high-sounding words, and the servants all complimented her.Daiyu then excused herself by saying that she felt a bit bored in the house and wanted to go for a walk in the garden, so she came out with a group of people.

She didn't take many people with her today, only one nanny, Hui'er, Xueyan, and two little maids.

Daiyu ordered the nanny and the two little maids to wait in the flower hall first, and then she went back with Huier and Xueyan after a while.Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps along a narrow path, they ran into trouble.
