The Red Chamber Collection

Daiyu is in the capital, and people come to look for her every day, and the sun and the moon are very easy to pass.On this day, Daiyu suddenly thought of Cao Xueya.Then he said to Yanzi: "I'm going out to visit an old friend today, can you go?"

"You go, I've been feeling unwell for the past two days." Yanzi looked at Daiyu and said.

Yanzi called Xiaocui and repeatedly ordered Daiyu to be protected.Daiyu said: "How can there be so many bad people? It's not easy for me to bring more people when I go out now. Feng'er Xiaocui will follow me, that's enough!" Then she said to Xiaocui: "We just pretend to go out, it's more convenient!"

Daiyu and Xiaocui changed into coarse cloth clothes, Feng'er looked at Daiyu's mouth, Daiyu smiled and said: "How old are you? Of course you have to dress better! You don't need to change. Even if you want to change, there are no ready-made ones. Could it be possible to do so?" Do it?!"

Feng'er took Daiyu's hand and said with a smile: "Just listen to Miss!"

Yanzi was worried about Daiyu, so when they went out three times, he sent two plainclothes guards from the mansion to follow them around.Daiyu didn't feel it, but Xiaocui did, but she didn't point it out.

The hired carriages and horses soon arrived at Ximen Bridge, Daiyu got out of the carriage, entered Ximen Hutong, and went in carefully.Under the old locust tree, Daiyu stopped, looked at a courtyard, and followed Feng'er to knock on the door.

The door opened with a creak, only to see a woman with disheveled hair, about twenty, looks delicate, just coarse clothes, not dressed but refreshing.When she saw the three girls, she asked softly, "Who are you looking for?"

"Cao Xueya Mr. Cao can live here?" Feng'er asked.

"Oh, that's right!" The woman turned her head and shouted into the room: "Xueya, someone is looking for you!"

When Daiyu saw the woman calling her name directly, she knew it was her wife!Said: "So it's sister-in-law! Daiyu is polite!"

"Miss, are you..." The woman was about to ask, but Cao Xueya came out of the room, holding a book in his hand, and asked, "Who is it?"

Cao Xueya raised his head, saw Daiyu at first glance, he was surprised and happy, hurriedly walked a few steps, arched his hands and said: "Oh, I don't know if it's the young lady who came to the humble house, I'm sorry to welcome you, forgive me!"

"Come to visit rashly, sorry for disturbing you!" Daiyu bowed her body and said.

"Quick, please come inside!" Cao Xueya let Daiyu and his party enter inside, and then said to the woman, "Yin'er, pour tea!"

Yin'er promised to set up a stool and pour tea, Daiyu looked carefully, the furniture was old, and a pair of calligraphy and paintings in the middle hall attracted Daiyu.There are thin bamboos and orchids in the middle painting, and the fonts on both sides are novel. The left hand reads "Why is the room elegant?" and the right hand reads "Flower fragrance is not much". The inscription is Banqiao Zhengxie.

"My little girl has little talent and learning, dare to ask sir, what generation is this Zheng Xie?"

"In front of Miss, Mr. dare not be, Miss is too humble! It's no wonder Miss Zheng Xie doesn't know him. He's not an ancient, but an old friend of Xiaosheng. People from Xinghua, Jiangsu, speaking of ancestral home, are still in the same place as Miss, which is also Suzhou!" Cao Xueya laughed. on the road.

"Oh!" Daiyu thought about such a coincidence, and said again: "From the calligraphy and painting, it can be seen that this person has extraordinary knowledge!"

"Miss is really eye-catching! I think that when he sold paintings in the market, Xiaosheng caught this painting at a glance and bought this painting. He invited him to drink in the store, and we became friends after coming and going! Mr. Zheng is famous in poetry, calligraphy and painting. Achievement!"

"Look at his handwriting is so strange, but I've never seen such a body before!"

Hearing this, Cao Xueya hurriedly stood up, arched his hands with a smile and said, "Miss's sentences are broken, so I don't need to say more. Mr. is not only a strange word, but also a strange person, and he is the first of the 'Yangzhou' eight monsters!"

"The little girl is ignorant and ignorant!"

"I think it's because the young lady doesn't leave the door, and the second door doesn't open. How can I know the outside world?!" Cao Xueya was so excited that he chatted with Daiyu speculatively, so he said to Yin'er: "You go to the market and cut some meat, please stay. Let's eat!"

Daiyu hurriedly said: "Sir, you don't have to be polite, my little girl will go as soon as she sits!"

"Don't be afraid of Miss's jokes. Now that the family is in a poor state, it's really shabby and not respectable! Today I have a good chat with Miss, I really want to chat with Miss a few more times!"

"It came so abruptly, and cost my husband money, I feel ashamed, little girl!"

"Where do you start with the expense? Simple tea and light food, a pot of thin wine, if the lady doesn't dislike it, Xiaosheng is very lucky!"

"Then respect is better than obedience! I'm bothering you!" Daiyu was very willing to stay, and it was rare to chat so freely, it was really refreshing.Then he said to Yin'er: "As soon as I come, I will cause trouble to my sister-in-law!"

"Miss has been admired by Yin'er from her temperament to her style of conversation since she entered the door! It is our family's honor to know Miss during my school years!" Yin'er said while holding Daiyu's hand.

"Yin'er, you don't know who she is yet, you will be happier if I tell you. She is the owner of that parrot."

Yin'er was so startled that his mouth was wide open, and he quickly covered his mouth with his hands. After a long time, he regained his composure and said happily, "You are Miss Lin Daiyu?!"

"Sister-in-law is laughing!"

"Oh, I'm so lucky to see you today!" Yin'er supported Daiyu with both hands, and looked at her carefully from top to bottom: "Miss sit down, I'll come as soon as I go!" Put it on the stool, float over the threshold, and go away lightly!

"Mr. is really blessed to have such a virtuous sister-in-law!" Daiyu said to Cao Xueya, looking at Yin'er's graceful figure.

"Xiaosheng is lucky to be able to be with Xiannei since he was a child. He knows his temper and character, but he just follows me, a useless person, and suffers and suffers. I feel ashamed!"

"Even in a well-to-do family, I have never seen such a happy life. The husband has learned from others, and the husband sings and the wife follows. What can the husband ask for?!"

Cao Xueya got up and bowed again: "Bo Ya's throwing of the piano has made many sages and scholars sigh! It is enough to have a confidant in life! Now the lady speaks, every word is in line with my heart! How old is Xueyao, dare to recognize Miss as a sister, I don't know Miss how about?"

Daiyu's mind is quick, and when Cao Xueya mentioned Qin, she felt that this person was abrupt, and Qin was more affectionate!How can the piano be used as an analogy if it has nothing to do with men and women?Now that Cao Xueya wants to recognize her as his younger sister, he is relieved.The Tao is love, friendship, and family affection. Qin is more appropriate than family affection, which makes Daiyu feel close to her academic career.He said: "Little sister has little talent and learning, and I am so honored to be loved by my brother!"

Cao Xueya laughed out loud, and chatted with Daiyu non-stop, wishing that time would stop, not at noon, so that they could continue chatting.Unexpectedly, Yin'er has quick hands and feet, and with the help of Xiao Cuifeng'er, the food and wine glasses are on the table early, so he has to sit in.

Feng'er Xiaocui and Cao Xueya's family had dinner in another room, Yin'er Cao Xueya drank with Daiyu.Daiyu was so happy that she drank more than usual but didn't feel it.In the middle of the wine, the pot is full of light.

"Yin'er!" Cao Xueya shook the jug and said to Yin'er, "Get some wine!"

Daiyu wanted to stop her, but Yin'er floated out of the door early and disappeared in an instant.When the wine arrived, it was half a jug, Cao Xueya said, "Why is it half a jug?"

Yin'er winked at her husband, but was caught by Daiyu's eyes, who pretended not to know.

Cao Xueya said to Yin'er, "Why can't I have a drink with my sister today?! But it's on credit, and I can pay it back in the future!"

Yin'er heard this and said, "Then your brothers and sisters drink first, and I will come as soon as I go!"

Daiyu looked at Yin'er's back: "I don't know where my brother is now? Why is life so difficult?"

Seeing Daiyu ask directly, Cao Xueya thought that the younger sister spoke frankly and liked it, so he said, "I don't have a fixed job now, but I just sell paintings to earn a few meals."

"I think your ancestors were once prominent, why did you reach this point?"

"Because the ancestor committed the crime, the family was fired, and because of the weaving deficit, he still owes the court 1 taels of silver."

When Daiyu heard about it, she looked sad and lost interest in drinking.

"Sister, you don't need to filter it. How can you live your life smoothly? Now that I'm still young, I have the confidence to repay this money!"

When Daiyu heard this, she was afraid of disappointing her master, so she forced herself to say: "Brother, I respect you with this cup!"

After Daiyu drank the wine in her glass, she had already planned in her mind.

What is Daiyu going to do again?
