The Red Chamber Collection

Daiyu finished her porridge and went to wash the dishes.She searched for a long time, floating dry ladles on the water tank.She picked it up curiously, looked at it, and wondered if it was made of wood.She dipped halfway into the water, and the old woman hurriedly took it over, "Miss, you can't do it. How can you let you do these rough jobs with your precious body, I will do it."

Daiyu was at a loss, "Look, I ate your food, but I didn't get anything for you. I just wanted to help you with some work. Now that I'm in such a field, it's so precious. These jobs are worthless. Nothing, I'm afraid there will be rougher jobs than this in the future."

The old lady listened and smiled inwardly.What's the point of washing the bowl.It seems that she is really the lady who came out of everyone, she has never done anything, and I feel sorry for her.I just thought, if her mother knew, she didn't know how to feel sorry for her.

"Miss, don't feel sorry for it. We country people don't have to show our hands. If the lady is really bored, you might as well tell me some interesting stories about your city people, and let my old lady learn a lot. "

Daiyu heard that she didn't know what to say, so she thought for a while, "By the way, mother-in-law, this is interesting. Let me tell you about the sisters composing poems together when we were in the Grand View Garden, okay?"

"Wetness? Then tell me, what kind of wet method is there in your place. I have also heard that there is such a festival, which is in the south. It takes several days to splash water on each other and laugh, regardless of gender. Splashing If you drink water, you must be happy and don't get angry!"

Daiyu smiled, it's really not right.In the old days, she would definitely make fun of her.But people don't know themselves, and they give food, but don't ask for money.There are such good people in the world.I thought again, is there really a Songkran Festival in the south?Isn't it uncomfortable to wear wet clothes?However, the sisters used to splash water when they were playing together.If this festival happens, it will be interesting!

"It's not wet clothes, it's poetry. It's what you want to write, with a pen." Lin Daiyu gestured.The old lady just understood.

"Miss, are you also literate? Are all your sisters literate? Can you compose poetry?"

"When I was young, my husband taught me a little bit, and I learned a little bit. The sisters have nothing to do, so they all learn a little bit!"

"Oh! It's your city after all. In our country, not to mention girls, even boys, and some of them can't read or write!" The old woman said, doubting in her heart, since her parents are gone, there are brothers and sisters, why only one people here? "One thing, I still don't understand. How did you come to our country with such a rich lady? Where are your sisters?"

When Daiyu asked, she looked sad and didn't speak for a long time.The old woman observed the changes on Daiyu's face, wondering what happened to her.After a while, Daiyu talked to the old woman slowly.After his death, he was rescued by Aunt Dong when the coffin was returned to the south for burial, and then he came here.Daiyu herself said it all from Aunt Dong.She didn't know what was going on, how she got here.When talking about it, she didn't talk about the relationship between herself and Baoyu, not only because she was embarrassed, but also because she was too self-respecting. She wanted to let others see the joke. How could a girl find her husband's family? !There is no reason in the world!

"Oh, there is such a thing." The old woman said in a low voice with her eyes wide open, as if she was afraid of being heard. "It's really no coincidence. I met your Aunt Dong. How could it be such a coincidence! The world is so big, she didn't go anywhere, but went to the place you were going to pass by. At that time, I happened to see your coffin. This is fate Ah, I have to believe it. The real thing is that you went to Lord Yama’s for a while, and then came back. Maybe there is no Mao of yours in Lord Yama’s place, which is why your Aunt Dong met you. Then you have relatives in the city family?"

"There is no family, only relatives."

"Which city are they from?"

"The capital!"

"At the feet of the Son of Heaven?"

"kindness!"

"Then what's your relative's last name?"

"Xin Jia, the Rongguo Mansion is my uncle's house!"

The old lady let out an oh, she had never heard of it.But living at the foot of the emperor, in her opinion, those are not simple people.

"It's not difficult. When my son comes back, let's discuss how to send you back. If the lady doesn't dislike our family, I will live here. Your body is so precious that we country girls can show their faces. "

Daiyu really didn't want to go back to Jia's house.But now that he is in such a field, where can he go?In Jia's mansion, after all, there are mothers, uncles, aunts and elder brothers to protect them.Originally I told Aunt Dong not to go, if not, where could I go? !

Seeing that Daiyu had no words, the old woman said, "Miss, don't worry. No matter what, I will let you go back to your uncle, or go to your relative's house and let him pick you up. Or send you directly. "

"That's not necessary. If you can go to the county, pass a message to the county master and ask him to go to Jia's mansion to inform him. My uncle or second brother will definitely send someone to pick me up. I'm afraid they won't believe me. How can a dead person Come back to life? I don’t believe it myself!” Daiyu was silent.

"Miss, this matter is not urgent, you can stay here with peace of mind. After my son comes back, I will make plans. Three cobblers are worth a Zhuge Liang. There will always be a way." The old lady was actually muttering in her heart.God, the county magistrate still has to be assigned by their family. What does her uncle do?

Daiyu nodded, "Grandma, I'm just here. I'm going to cause you trouble. If the real uncle or second brother comes, then I will thank Granny again."

"Miss, I don't want to thank you for anything. It's just that you are in our house, and I feel that you have been wronged too much, and I feel sorry for you." The old woman said it honestly.Such a precious lady, unexpectedly ended up in such a state.People's hearts are fleshy, if Daiyu is a countryman, she is used to hardship.Let her son borrow a car and take her back.It's just that such a young lady, who usually doesn't even see outsiders, how can she show her face?There is a loss, but what happened!
