Jia Lu through the Red Chamber

Jia Lu was a little speechless when she heard that, since Daiyu came here to take care of Brother Rui alone, her temperament has become much gentler, but people have forgotten that she is the No. 1 eloquent tongue in the Red Mansion. of.

Baoyu was in a hurry, and pulled Daiyu's sleeve, "My good sister, I don't know what kind of words you are talking about, what kind of gold and jade, and Xiren can't call you sister-in-law. If you are annoyed, call I'm fine with scolding me, but don't talk like that again!"

Xiren's complexion changed when he heard it, and instantly turned pale.

Daiyu glanced at her with a half-smile, and said, "Baoyu, what did you say again, and why have I ever been annoyed? Is it possible that in your heart, I am always a petty person?"

Baoyu shook her head hastily, "No, no, no! I, I..." Baoyu, who has always been eloquent, also stuttered now. At this time, his mind became more and more confused, and he said,

"I thought you were mad that you didn't get this."

As he spoke, he took out a string of red musk agate from his sleeve, which was still warm with the body temperature of Baoyu.

Daiyu glanced at it, and said, "I'm not so lucky to take this, you'd better put it away!" Then she turned around and was about to leave.

The more Baoyu listened, the more anxious he was, he held Daiyu's hand and said, "My dear sister, it's hard to tell what's on my mind. You'll find out later, I can swear, except for the old lady..."

"Brother Bao!" Jia Lu yelled loudly. Hearing that Baoyu was getting more and more confused, Jia Lu couldn't help it, and hurriedly stopped her.

Looking at Daiyu in a blink of an eye, she saw that her face was flushed, Jia Lu said again,

"Brother Bao, it's getting late, I'm going to greet the old lady soon, brother Bao should go back earlier to wash and change clothes!"

Xiren's ears were hot when he heard it, but he couldn't let Baoyu continue talking. He led Baoyu to go out, and persuaded

"Baoyu, Miss Si is right. It's not too early now. The old lady is still waiting. Let's go back and change our clothes to greet the old lady. It's serious. If you have something to say, it's not too late to say it later. Let's go." , let's go!"

He dragged Baoyu out of the door alive and dead, and Mother Li knew what was going on, and led everyone down.

"Sister Lin, what are you?" Jia Lu was a little hesitant. What Daiyu and Baoyu said just now was beyond the brother-sister friendship. When did the two of them secretly fall in love?

The blush on Daiyu's face gradually subsided, and she said, "What's wrong with me, I'm fine!"

"Then why did you mention that gold and jade, and also that attacker?"

"What's the matter? I just don't like Xiren's little thoughtfulness. Baoyu has grown legs and came to our place, so she came to our place to pull people. Only those who have the ability to control Baoyu are serious. !"

"Then what gold and jade?"

Daiyu gave her a sideways look, "It's a child's family, don't ask more about these things!"

Jia Lu said angrily, "You are only a few years older than me, how can you be an adult?" She said so, but her heart sank.

Daiyu's heart is more sensitive than Gan's, so she couldn't see her worry, and said, "You can rest assured, I know how to measure, I just want to bring up Brother Rui in a good life, and live up to the spirit of my parents That's it."

Jia Lu was still about to say something, when a little girl outside came to report, saying, "The old lady invited Miss Lin to come over!"

The two of them didn't care about what to say, they cleaned up and went to the old lady's yard.

As soon as she entered, she saw Jia's mother beaming with joy, holding Daiyu's hand and saying, "We, Yu'er, are blessed!"

Daiyu was confused when she heard this, "Old lady, where does this joy come from?"

"Yesterday, the empress in the palace sent out a gift for the Dragon Boat Festival, and today the emperor also sent a gift for the Dragon Boat Festival. He specifically named it for you, and said, "I have pity on your father, Duke Wen Su, who is devoted to the country, leaving only you and Rui." Brothers, two orphans and weak girls, you are pitiful, you have been ordered to give gifts on three festivals every year, which can be regarded as the court's concern for you. Come and see, do you like it?"

Opening the gift box, the things inside are not so rare, and their Jia family is used to seeing luxury things, but there are light yellow paper stickers on them, indicating that they are all imported things, which is rare. To say that the most valuable thing is a string of red musk agate, compared with the ones given to me as a concubine, it is bigger, rounder in shape, and more transparent in color. What is even rarer is a string of beads. All of them are the same size, which shows that they are much more valuable than the ones rewarded by the empress.

Grandmother Jia was happy, and everyone was also happy. Only Mrs. Wang's complexion was not very good, and she smiled a little forcedly. The day before, the empress had just delivered a gift, let alone the old lady and their elders. Yes, the next class is Baoyu and Baochai girl, which also implicitly expresses her meaning, and the next class is Daiyu and Jia Lu. Today the emperor sent a separate gift to Daiyu, This is really just looking at that short-lived Young Master Lin, and he is still slapping Yuan Chun in the face. If it is the former, it will be better. If it is the latter, thinking about Mrs. Wang's heart will be aroused.

Several people chatted and laughed for a while, Wang Xifeng came to say hello, and said that on the first day of the first day, he was going to Qingxu Guan to hold a funeral ceremony, and invited Baochai, Baoyu, Daiyu and Jia's sisters to watch a play. Baochai thought it was too hot. , said, "It's so hot, I won't go, I haven't seen any drama."

Jia Lu also refused to go, Ning Mansion had already called someone to tell them that their family was going to spend the Dragon Boat Festival together, so they would not go.

Wang Xifeng persuaded,

"It's not hot. It's cool in their place. There are buildings on both sides of them. We're going. I sent people there in the first few days and drove them out. No one else was allowed to come in. It's much quieter. As for the fourth sister, said Don't tell me you still have to go, the old man has been feeling cold for the past two days, and he has invited an imperial doctor to recuperate for a day or two. Our second master is busy and can't get away, and the master is not a common man, so he can't control these things, so I also got a man borrowed from your family to come, it may not be respecting Uncle or Brother Zhen, besides, we are praying from the first to the third day of junior high school, and the Dragon Boat Festival is the fifth day of the junior high school, so there is no delay."

Jia Lu listened and said, "Then I don't care, I just follow orders."

Wang Xifeng smiled and stopped talking.

Jia Mu listened well and said, "I'll go with you!"

Wang Xifeng listened and said, "That's good! It's the old lady who loves me."

Jia's mother said to Xue Baochai again, "You go too, even your mother. It's a hundred days, you can't just sleep."

Xue Baochai agreed.Mother Jia sent someone to ask Aunt Xue, and Aunt Xue agreed, and then asked Mrs. Wang, but Mrs. Wang couldn't go back, saying that she was in case the empress had something to say.

Jia's mother was so excited that someone asked the eldest wife, Mrs. Chen. Now that Cong'er has entered school, and Brother Rui has also gone out to study, she was too busy to stay alone, so she agreed.

Jia Mu sent someone to the garden again to ask if anyone would go. The people in the garden didn't want to go, and they were forced to go by their maids. Li Wan and others said they would go.

Later, the people who went to Ning Mansion talked back and forth, saying that Mr. Jing would not go, but Mr. Zhen would go, and Mrs. Jing gave orders, saying that it was up to the four girls to decide whether to go or not. Later, under the persuasion of Wang Xifeng and others , Jia Lu also agreed to go there together.
