Daiyu of the Red Chamber raised a cat

After listening to Zhou Hang's words, Daiyu said: "Now Li Chengyu is at large, needless to say, this list has not been obtained yet."

Zhou Hang frowned in distress: "The masked Taoist possesses some powerful sorcery. Li Chengyu is with him and hides. It's really hard to find. However, since he is determined to usurp the throne, there is always time to make a move." .Now that the imperial court is prepared, as long as he starts all the way, he will be able to catch them all in one go."

Daiyu nodded and put the matter aside.

The space is full of green grass all the year round, and the aura in the air penetrates into her body. Daiyu squinted her eyes and took a deep breath, feeling infinitely happy.She raised her eyes and looked into the distance. The tiger was sitting on the grass and wagging its tail leisurely, the mastiff was energetically chasing the sweaty BMW running with hooves, and the fish balls were floating in Lingquan Lake, squinting their eyes and taking a bath.

Daiyu's eyes finally fell on Yu Wan, and she frowned slightly troubled: "Brother Hang, look at Yu Wan, is it getting bigger and bigger? After a cat becomes an adult, it is said that it will not grow any longer, but I see Yu Wan Maru, why have you grown up a bit, it won’t be a problem, right?”

"What's the problem?!" Zhou Hang glanced into the Lingquan Lake, "Can the cats soaked in the Lingquan be the same as ordinary cats?"

Daiyu said, "That's true."

The two walked together to the small world of cultivation, shoulder to shoulder, Zhou Hang had a calm and serious expression on his face, but he couldn't help but think happily, smelling the elegant fragrance from Daiyu's hair. Huaxiang, holding and releasing, releasing and holding, so several times, finally unable to hold back the hand that secretly went to La Daiyu.

Daiyu withdrew her hand and was caught again, she didn't raise her head, and she didn't withdraw again.

Zhou Hang suppressed the little joy in his heart and didn't laugh out loud.At this moment, he hopes that this road will never come to an end, so that he can keep this better forever.Neither of them spoke, and a wonderful atmosphere filled their minds.Zhou Hang secretly glanced at Daiyu, her cheeks were slightly red, reflecting her porcelain-white skin, like a peach.

Just when Zhou Hang couldn't help being distracted, Daiyu suddenly asked, "I haven't seen my adoptive father for a while, what has he been up to lately?"

Mentioning this made Zhou Hang a little unhappy.He suggested to the emperor's father to send someone to go to the west to inspect firearms, but the emperor accepted it, but he firmly refused to allow him to go.Unexpectedly, after the emperor's uncle got the news, he excitedly took the initiative to invite Ying, and talked with the emperor's father in the secret room for a long time. He didn't know what he said, and finally he and Sang Sheng were allowed to lead an elite team of 30 people to pretend to be merchants. team to go.

Among the thirty people, five were secret guards sent by Li Zhao to protect Li Xu's safety; Doctors who rejuvenate with wonderful hands, painters with wonderful hands, fine weaving, fine embroidery...

Explaining the reason, Zhou Hang said: "In short, the people brought here are from all walks of life. Father is determined to steal all the skills of the West. Uncle Nine Emperors is busy preparing things for going out now. Do you have time to worry about other things?"

Daiyu gradually slowed down her pace and said with a smile, "It would be appropriate for foster father to go. Uncle Sang has business dealings with people from the West, wouldn't it be more convenient?"

Zhou Hang said sullenly: "It is more convenient."

Time passed like running water, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day when Li Xu and Sang Sheng set off—April [-]th.Because sending people to the west to steal teachers is not an open action of the court, so few people know about it, and they go very low-key.Li Zhao, Lin Ruhai, Li Yu, Zhou Hang, and Lin Daiyu were the only ones who saw him off. Daiyu was dressed as a boy, wearing a stone-blue robe and wearing a jade hairpin. She was more playful than her daughters in the past.

Li Xu can't help but be his only son Li Yu, but Daiyu.

Pulling Daiyu, he spoke earnestly, exhorting and exhorting, more concerned than the old father who watched his beloved daughter get married: "Good daughter, I'm leaving, you must be well. I know you are a good-natured person, If others bully you, you don’t know how to bully them back. Don’t do this in the future. If anyone dares to bully you, you will bully them even more. If it doesn’t work, you can find your brother. I’ve told him repeatedly that he will avenge you. I don't know how long it will take me to leave, maybe a year and a half, maybe three to five years, can you promise me one thing? Otherwise, even if I leave, I won't be relieved."

Daiyu was so moved when she saw how affectionate and righteous he was, she almost said with tears in her eyes, "What's the matter? Father-in-law, tell me, I will definitely promise you."

Li Xu: "You said this, don't go back on your word."

Daiyu: "I don't regret it."

Lin Ruhai stared at Li Xu holding his daughter's hand, his eyes were turbulent, but considering Li Xu's identity and his imminent journey, it would take him a few years to come back, so he restrained himself and did not lose his composure.

Zhou Hang couldn't help but rolled his eyes, feeling that Li Xu was too hypocritical.

There was no emotion in Li Yu's eyes, but he nervously shook his hands and let him go.Li Zhao was probably the calmest, he was really calm, so he just stood quietly and listened to what they had to say.

Li Xu: "Good girl, promise me, how about not getting married before I come back? The biggest wish in my life is to see my daughter Shili Hongzhuang get married with my own eyes."

Lin Ruhai couldn't hold back, and coughed dryly.Zhou Hang grabbed Daiyu's hand directly, looked at Li Xu, and said coldly, "Uncle Huang, it's time for you to go."

Li Xu took a look at Zhou Hang, and said slightly sadly: "You boy, I haven't finished talking yet."

Regardless of the coldness of Sang Sheng's sharp eyes, Zhou Hang pushed Li Xu, pushed him into the carriage two or three times, and complained in his mouth: "It's still my uncle, every word in his mouth will destroy my marriage. If I don’t come back in three to five years once I go, can it be that I’m going to be in vain for three to five years?”

Li Xu: "Lin Ruhai hasn't said anything yet, why are you so anxious, you don't know how to be ashamed!"

While speaking, Zhou Hang put down the curtain of the car, and Li Xu's figure was hidden behind the curtain. Zhou Hang ordered the driver to drive the car.The carriage was galloping, Li Xu poked out half his head from the side window, and shouted: "Stop, stop!"

The carriage drove not far away, Li Xu poked his head and said, "I almost forgot one thing." Because he asked his personal butler to come forward, he gave some instructions in a low voice.The housekeeper then called several tunnels, took out two large boxes from the carriage loaded at the back, and said to Daiyu, "I've been away, and I haven't come back for a few years. I left something for you. When you get married dowry."

Since Li Xu left in such a cool and unrestrained manner, Daiyu returned home with two big boxes. When she opened them, she found that the boxes were full of exquisite jewels and jade articles, each of which was of great value. There are also several land deeds and house deeds, as well as the deeds of several shops.

Zhou Hang laughed and said, "Uncle Huang is really pretending to prepare a dowry for his daughter. I misunderstood him."

Daiyu: "..." Please don't say some things in front of her.

Out of anger, Daiyu didn't leave Zhou Hang to practice together, and immediately drove someone away.

On the second day, before Daiyu woke up, her nostrils were filled with the elegant and fresh scent of crabapple flowers.After sitting up and taking a look, there are indeed several vases in the room, with many crabapple flowers arranged in a well-arranged manner, which is really beautiful.Huier waited on Daiyu to comb her hair, and divided Daiyu's dark and smooth black hair into two strands, coiled them into butterfly shapes on the top, and naturally hung down on both sides.

Hui'er asked Daiyu what hairpin she used, and Daiyu picked out a pearl hairpin from the box and said, "That's it, simple and elegant."

Hui'er took the pearl hairpin, put it on Dai Yu's head carefully, looked at it in the mirror, and said with a smile: "It's too simple and elegant to only wear a pearl hairpin. The crabapple flowers in the yard are in full bloom today. The slaves have ordered the little maids to step on a lot of vases, the girl might as well pick a good hairpin to add a bit of fresh color."

Daiyu said: "I don't go out, what are you doing with such bright clothes?" So she didn't agree.

After breakfast, Daiyu caught a glimpse of a purse that was about to be completed in the sewing basket, and remembered that the Dragon Boat Festival was approaching, and it was time for her father and Zhou Hang to change their purses.She had already embroidered one a few days ago, and this is the second one, which is almost finished.Although Zhou Hang burned a purse embroidered by her last time, since he didn't mean it, he spared him this time.

Daiyu's embroidery became more and more perfect, and the hand-twisted needles and threads were flying on the purse at such a speed that at a glance, she couldn't see where the needles and threads fell, only the phantom shadow of her fingers flying.Even Huier, who is an excellent embroiderer, was dazzled and sighed: "Young lady's technique is really superb."

The purse was embroidered quickly, and Daiyu put it away, planning to give it to Zhou Hang the next time she saw him.

Crouching on the imperial concubine's couch, just about to take a rest, unexpectedly Zhou Hang sent Koizumi here, in addition to bringing a few exquisite snacks and snacks from the palace, he also brought a picture of Bianjing market well drawn by Zhang Zeduan, a famous calligrapher and painter in the Northern Song Dynasty.Zhang Zeduan worked in the Hanlin Academy of Painting and was good at depicting the customs of the city, especially at painting boats and carts, shops, bridges, streets, city walls, etc. His "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival" is the No.1 painting in the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is now stored in the royal treasury. Don't show it easily.

There are not many paintings left by Zhang Zeduan, but all of them are treasures, worth tens of thousands of gold.

As soon as Daiyu heard that it was Zhang Zeduan's painting, she immediately ordered Koizumi to present it, and put it on the desk. When she looked closely, the city walls, houses, streets, rivers, and passing merchants were vividly displayed on it. , wonderful.Immediately overjoyed, he rewarded Koizumi with a purse and two little golden lockets.

After Koizumi left, Daiyu felt as if she had acquired a treasure, her eyeballs were glued to the painting.

This painting depicts a bustling street in Bianjing in the Northern Song Dynasty.In the distance, a Persian caravan is slowly approaching in a carriage. The depiction is extremely detailed. The Persian's exotic appearance and tall nose can be clearly seen; further forward, there is a rouge shop, behind the rouge shop, in the courtyard There are rows of houses on the street, and a few trees are planted at the gate of each house. If you look carefully, there are bird nests on the trees. A hatched bird's egg, with a small bird's head sticking out, with a few soft hairs on the top.In the painting, a bird's nest that is no bigger than a fingernail can be portrayed so vividly, one can imagine the level of the artist.

Xueyan came in with a tea tray, put down the tea, and couldn't help talking about the look in Daiyu's eyes.

"Girl, what does this shop sell? Why are there so many customers in plain gowns?" Xueyan asked.

Daiyu squinted her eyes for a closer look, and said, "That's a shop selling brushes, ink, paper and inkstones, and next to it is an antique shop."

Xueyan let out an "oh", still frowning in doubt.
