Crimson Pearl Tears in a Dream of Red Mansions

"Yu'er, my Yu'er!" As soon as Daiyu entered the door, she saw Jia Mu coming out surrounded by the second wife of Xing Wang and all the maids and women. As soon as she saw Daiyu, she cried and called Daiyu. The name of Yu is full of tears. People who don't know it just think that Jia's mother is dead and her son and daughter are suffering from the heartache of a white-haired person sending a black-haired person!When Daiyu saw that her grandmother was in such a state when she saw her, she couldn't help frowning. When she was at home, she often heard Jia Min say that her grandmother was the most playful. Nine out of ten sentences were true. unbelievable.

Thinking of this, Daiyu didn't feel any closeness to Jiamu in her heart, she just gave a little salute to Jiamu and the second wife of King Xing, then sat on a chair beside her without saying a word.Seeing that her granddaughter was so unfamiliar with her actions, Jia's mother was suffocated, and she still forced a smile on her face: "Yu'er, since you have come to this mansion, you should not be a layman in everything, or if there is something missing, you can play with it." , even if you talk to your grandmother, just treat it as your own home." Daiyu just said: "Daiyu saves it."

At this time, Xueyan saw that her girl's voice was not the same as before, so she understood the reason, so she asked with a smile: "Old lady, my girl is tired from traveling and traveling, and she hasn't rested yet. I don't know where my girl lives, servant girl How about taking a load of luggage there and helping my girl to rest?" After hearing this, Jiamu remembered that the place where Daiyu was going to live had not yet been prepared, and as she was getting older, she couldn't remember many things well. The second wife is in charge of the house now, but she didn't think about reminding her. Thinking of this, she couldn't help glaring at Mrs. Wang, because she said, "move that precious jade out of the suite, and let Yu'er live in the green gauze cupboard." Yes."

Hearing this, Xueyan couldn't help sneering: "It turns out that this is the rule of the Rongguo Mansion. It's really an eye-opener! Foreign guests are coming, but the house has not been prepared yet, and a woman in the boudoir and a young master live in it." The room I passed by, if this gets out, the Rongguo Mansion will really have face!" Everyone felt ashamed when they heard Xueyan's direct words, and Mrs. Wang said angrily: "You are a little girl, the master speaks, And you have to interrupt!"

Xueyan heard this, and couldn't help sneering: "I'm the girl's girl, but I'm not your Jia's girl. If you want to scold me, it won't be your turn to be the master of Jia's family. Besides, even though I am Girl, you are from the Zhengbai Banner of the Han Army, I just don’t know what banner your Jia’s residence belongs to?” Jia’s mother couldn’t help being shocked when she heard Xueyan’s words, although she knew that the Lin family was from the Zhenghuang Banner of Manchuria, she didn’t expect that one of the people in the mansion The little girl is also a bannerman of the Han army.

"Snow geese, don't be rude." Daiyu stopped Xueyan suddenly, and then said to Jia Mu: "Since my grandmother never prepared a house for Daiyu to live in, then Daiyu will not disturb my grandmother. Fortunately, the Lin family is in Beijing." There is also a house, and it has been taken care of by family members these years, so it is cheaper to live there." After speaking, he took Xueyan Chunxian and Wang Momo to bid farewell to Mother Jia and others.

"What did Yu'er say? Why didn't grandma prepare a house for you to live in?" When Jia Mu heard that Daiyu was leaving, she hurriedly told Yuanyang, "Take Miss Lin to Jinxia Pavilion to rest!" Just kidding, If Daiyu left, wouldn't all my plans be in vain? "Old lady, the Jinxia Pavilion is..." Before Madam Wang could finish speaking, she was glared at by Mother Jia, then looked at the crowd, and said, "What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you follow my orders?" ?” The servant girls heard this, and hurriedly responded, “Yes.”

After Daiyu and the other four left, Mrs. Wang said to Jia Mu, "Old lady, what are you doing? The Jinxia Pavilion is only for distinguished guests!" Jia Mu glared at Mrs. Wang angrily, and said, " You foolish woman, what do you know? Yu'er's status is noble, and she is very distinguished from ordinary people. If you please her, Yuanchun will have a better life in the future, and the prosperity and wealth in this mansion will last forever. That day Aunt Taohong came, and you were there, and she Don’t you understand what’s inside and outside the words?” Then he said: “In the final analysis, it’s not because you treat Yu’er deliberately, otherwise how could you make it so hard to get down, and you have to let Yu’er go Live in Jinxia Pavilion?" When Jia Mu said this, she became angry. Jinxia Pavilion is the best house in Rongguo Mansion. Rest in Jinxia Pavilion.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang didn't dare to reply, but she was very angry in her heart.

And Xueyan Chunxian was waiting for Daiyu to rest, so they went to do their own work.Not long after, Yuanyang led a group of maids to Jinxia Pavilion, and said to Xueyan Chunxian: "At this time, the old lady ordered me to send a maid to serve Miss Lin." The maid in purple clothes, with picturesque features, seemed honest and gentle, said: "This is the maid in front of the old lady, Brother Ying, who is specially ordered by the old lady to serve the girl personally."

Chunxian couldn't help being slightly annoyed after hearing this: "I don't know what the old lady means? But do you think we are not qualified to be the big maids in front of the girl?" Seeing that Chunxian was angry, Yuanyang quickly laughed and said: "No such thing. It's just that Lin The girl has just arrived here, so the old lady is worried that Miss Lin doesn't know the rules of the house and she's making a joke." Xue Yan couldn't help but sneer and said, "Sister Yuanyang said this, is it that we girls are not polite? It's okay, but there is also a saying that guests feel at home, the old lady also let our girl treat this place as her own home, and everything is up to her own wishes. Now she is sending a maid to tell the girl what to do in the house? If there are slaves If you dare to chew my girl's tongue, it's because your servants have no rules, but it's not because our girls are rude!"

Yuanyang didn't expect Xueyan Chunxian to look weak and slender, and she was a few years younger than herself, but she was so powerful.At this moment, Nanny Wang came out. Seeing this, she said, "What are Xueyan and Chunxian shouting about here? The girl just stopped, so don't disturb the girl!" After hearing what Nanny Wang said, Xueyan went He told Mother Wang everything in detail.Wang Momo said with a smile: "You two girls," she smiled and said to Yuanyang: "Miss Yuanyang, don't be angry, these two girls will be very careful when they encounter my girl, lest my girl I have been wronged!" After all, Wang Momo is from the older generation, she knows that Daiyu came to Rongfu for business, and she must not completely tear herself apart with Rongfu before the matter is over, so she listened to Xue Yanchun inside. Xian's yelling voice immediately came out to smooth things over, so as not to make matters worse.

Yuanyang heard Wang Momo's words, and the embarrassment in her heart disappeared immediately, and she hurriedly said with a smile: "What did mother say, Sister Xueyan and Sister Chunxian are also eager to protect the Lord, and Yuanyang knows it." She was a little embarrassed and said: "It's just about Brother Parrot..." The old lady confessed that Brother Parrot must serve Miss Lin personally. Although she didn't know the reason, she also knew that there must be some reason in it.

Wang Momo smiled and said: "Since it was given by the old lady, I thought it was a good one, so I made the decision to accept it for my girl. Please ask Miss Yuanyang to go back and thank the old lady for my girl!" Said: "Thank you so much, Mom, Yuanyang bid farewell."

After the mandarin ducks left, Mother Wang said to Parrot: "Miss Parrot, go and clean up yourself, and I will have a word with Chunxian Xueyan!" Let's go." After saying that, he took his own package and left.

Seeing Brother Ying leave, Xueyan complained to Wang Momo: "Mother, why did you let her stay? Isn't this planting a traitor next to the girl?" Wang Momo said: "You pretend I don't know the old lady The purpose of letting her come? It's just that you have to think about it, the girl has something to do when she comes to this mansion, and she can't tear herself apart with the mansion before she finishes. We were too aggressive when we came here. It is inevitable that the girl will be tied up in doing things in the future. The old lady sent the girl a maid for that purpose, but if we refuse, the old lady will inevitably feel unhappy and want to take advantage of the girl more and more. It is better to stay. It's good to take the opportunity to subdue her and let her be used by us!"

Chunxian listened, thought about it carefully, and felt that it was reasonable, and said: "Mom is right, we were reckless."

When Daiyu got up to rest, the sun was already in the west, so she asked Xueyan to fetch water to clean her face, but it was Parrot who answered and fetched water.When Daiyu saw Brother Ying, she asked, "Who are you? Why are you in my room?" Brother Ying laughed and said, "Your servant, Brother Ying, is the old lady who ordered your servant to serve the girl." Daiyu heard that, Then she understood the intention of Mother Jia's move, and knew that it must be Mother Wang who made the decision to keep her, because according to Xueyan's or Chunxian's temper, most likely they would refuse with cold words.Of course, she also understood Wang Momo's purpose for keeping Brother Parrot, and she deeply believed in it.

After cleaning her face, Daiyu said to Brother Ying: "My sister's name is not good. At first I thought it was my parrot on the corridor. Why don't I change my name for my sister?" Brother Ying said with a smile: "My name is often used by my sisters to make fun of it. If I get a name from a girl, I will definitely wish for it." Daiyu thought for a while, and smiled: "My eyes are full of youth, and the east wind is used to blowing red. After a few times of smoke, there are only flowers. Difficult to protect. Lovesickness in dreams, so King Sun Lu, spring has no owner! Where the cuckoo sings, tears are stained with rouge rain. My sister is dressed in purple, with picturesque eyebrows, just like a cuckoo in spring, if you don’t, just call it Zijuan.”

Brother Parrot heard this, read it twice, and said with a smile, "That's a good name. I'll be called Zijuan from now on." Then he asked, "Miss, do you want to go out for a walk?" Daiyu laughed and said: "You are really understanding, I just want to go to my grandmother's place." At this time, seeing Chunxian and Xueyan coming, he smiled and said: "Chunxian, Xueyan, I will go to my grandmother's place, you just let me go to my grandmother's place." Let me sweep the house." Xueyan asked, "Do you want Xueyan to go with the girl?" Daiyu said, "No need, Zijuan can accompany me. After all, only you know what I like."

Xueyan agreed, and said with a smile: "Yes, Xueyan promises that the girl will be very satisfied and live comfortably when she comes back." Daiyu listened, laughed, and went to Jiamu's house with Zijuan I went to the room to live.

When she arrived at Jiamu's place, Daiyu saw that besides the two aunts of King Xing whom she had seen when she first came, there were also two young beautiful women, several pretty girls, and a young man with a beautiful jade hanging on his chest. The son is in front of Jiamu.Seeing Zijuan come in with Daiyu, Jia Mu nodded and asked, "Yu'er, am I satisfied with letting this parrot serve you?" Yes, but Yu'er has already decided to change Yingge's name to Zicuckoo." Jia Mu smiled and said, "Since I gave you the man, I can do whatever you want, but you don't need to tell me."

Then he said to Daiyu, "You haven't seen your two sisters-in-law and all your sisters yet." Daiyu laughed and said, "Yu'er saw it earlier, but who is it?" Then he smiled and pointed to Daiyu one by one, saying, "This is sister-in-law Zhu. This is your second sister-in-law Lian. This is your second sister Yingchun. This is your third sister Tanchun. This is your fourth sister Xichun." Daiyu I have seen them one by one.

At this time, I saw the young boy coquettishly saying to Jiamu: "Old ancestor, why don't you introduce me to my sister?" "This is Baoyu, your second elder brother Baoyu. He is the demon king in the family." Daiyu saw that Baoyu was dressed in red, with peach blossom eyes, face like autumn moon, and color like spring flowers. Growing up in the boudoir, he was very displeased in his heart, but he didn't show it at all on his face, he just bowed to Jia Baoyu.

Na Baoyu saw that Daiyu was more outstanding than her sisters in the family, as if she had floated out of the world like a fairyland, and he liked girls even more, so he circled around Daiyu to ask questions.Baoyu asked, "Has my sister ever read?" Daiyu said, "I only read the Four Books." Baoyu asked Daiyu's name again, and Daiyu answered. Yuzhi said: "The mountain is as green as the Dai of Dai." Baoyu asked Daiyu again.Daiyu said: "Qingqing." Baoyu couldn't help but praise after hearing this: "My uncle is really good, and my sister's calligraphy is really different, which highlights my sister's charm."

After hearing this, Tanchun couldn't help laughing: "Second brother, what do you know?" Baoyu said: "It is recorded in "Tong Kao of Ancient and Modern Figures" that there is a stone named Dai in the West, which can replace ink for thrush. My sister's boudoir name Daiyu's brows are frowning, but it's the most beautiful word." After hearing this, Tanchun couldn't help laughing and said, "Why haven't I seen it before? It must be your invention, second brother." Baoyu said: " Since the Han and Tang Dynasties, there have been too many fabricated ones, but I don’t make up any more.”

Daiyu heard this, but didn't say a word, but Lin Ruhai didn't get her name, but Kangxi took it for her when she was one year old, but she's as smart as Daiyu, so she won't say this to provoke herself unnecessary trouble.

At this moment, Baoyu suddenly heard Baoyu ask Daiyu, "I wonder if my sister has jade?" Daiyu had heard from her mother that Baoyu was born with jade in her mouth, so she was named Baoyu. Said: "But I have a lot of jade, I don't know how many jade bracelets alone. I don't know why the second brother asked me this?" Baoyu was about to answer, but Jia Mu said: "Okay, it's time to pass on the meal. "

Baoyu stopped talking at this time, and suddenly pestered Jia Mu and asked, "Your sister lives with me in the green gauze closet?" Jia Mu was taken aback when she heard this, but said, "No, Your younger sister Lin lives in Jinxia Pavilion." Baoyu heard this, and couldn't help saying, "Why don't you live with me?" Jia Mu was about to comfort her, but she saw Daiyu's face suddenly turned cold, and her heart sank. Zhi Daiyu got angry, so she had to say: "You and your sister are both in their teens, how can you live together like children, wouldn't it make people laugh!"

Baoyu was about to make trouble again, but suddenly saw Daiyu's unhesitating face, and asked, "What's wrong with my sister?" Daiyu said coldly, "I don't know that Brother Bao is so absurd that he wants to have sex with me." A girl in a boudoir is sleeping in the same room, if word spreads, it will not have any effect on the second elder brother Bao, but I will be drowned in people's spittle without a place to bury me!" After speaking, he ignored Baoyu.

Seeing that Daiyu was angry, Baoyu couldn't help feeling embarrassed, so he went to have dinner with Jia's mother in a depressed mood, but he didn't dare to mention that he wanted to live in the same room with Daiyu, for fear of making Daiyu angry again, he ignored it from then on. him.

After dinner, Jia's mother was not happy when she saw that Baoyu was unhappy, and she knew it was because of Daiyu, but she refused to give up her face to talk about Daiyu for Baoyu, because she also heard Jia Lian say during the day that Daiyu's marriage was for Daiyu. Kangxi is in charge, nine out of ten is the future prince Fujin.Although Jia's mother felt it was a pity, she had no choice but to treat Daiyu well while Daiyu was in Jia's house, so that Daiyu could pull Jia's family back in the future.After thinking about it, Jia Mu gave Baoyu a maid, Ruizhu, who was beside her.

Although Ruizhu's beauty is far inferior to the beauty and softness of Jiangnan girls like Xueyan, and the nobleness and unrestrainedness of a Manchurian girl like Chunxian, they can only be regarded as upper-middle class in Jia's house, but what is rare is their personality. That's why Jiamu gave the pearl to Baoyu, because Jiamu expected Baoyu to like it very much.Sure enough, when Baoyu saw Ruizhu, he quickly forgot about Daiyu.

But Ruizhu has a dementia. When she was serving Jiamu, she had only one Jiamu in her heart. Now she was serving Baoyu, but she only had Baoyu in her heart.Seeing that Baoyu treats her very well, Ruizhu has an idea in her heart, so she comes to Jinxia Pavilion to meet Daiyu.

Daiyu had seen Ruizhu by Jia Mu's side during the day, so she asked Ruizhu why she came.Ruizhu laughed and said, "It's nothing serious, it's just for the matter before dinner. Master Bao has always been like this. I hope the girl won't take it to heart." He must have an affair with Baoyu. Seeing that Baoyu treats him like this, he came here to test himself.So he laughed and said, "What are you talking about? If brothers and sisters took it to heart because of this idea, then I would have died of anger. It's just that the second elder brother is such a big man, he can't act so absurdly again. But what am I It's a relative, so I can't say a lot about it."

After hearing Daiyu's words, Ruizhu didn't feel puzzled, could it be that Miss Lin has no intention of loving Second Master Bao?Thinking about it in my heart, I think it is impossible. In the past, every girl who met Bao Erye would have a good impression of him, even the old lady's grandniece, Miss Xiangyun, who is as bold as a man, likes Bao Erye.Ruizhu wanted to try Daiyu, but seeing that Daiyu looked tired, she didn't want to bother her any more, so she got up and said goodbye.
