The Rebirth of Daiyu in the Red Chamber

There is no sound in the reading hall, everyone is buried in the books, the tables and chairs for people to read are full of people, and the rest of the people have to stand or lean on the bookshelves.Most of these people wear robes or vests that scholars like; but there are also some people who wear bunts, who can read at first glance but are not from the imperial examination; It is not uncommon for many Manchu women to come to the reading library when they have time to show their faces. .

There are many books here that have never been seen on the market, and I don’t know where the owner found them, which attracts many book lovers to read.

As Lin Qiong once said, the arrival of a woman will not cause much reaction. Lin Daiyu just believed it, but she didn't stop at the door, and took Chen Shou and Chunjing to the third floor quickly.It is said that on the third floor there are western books bought by Lin Qiong, and she has always wanted to read them.

Compared with the first floor, there is no one on the third floor, and it is quiet, which is exactly what I wanted.Lin Daiyu felt relieved, and softly told Chunjing to bring Chen Shou not to speak loudly, but to find some books to read by herself.

What discouraged Lin Daiyu was that she couldn't understand all the Western books here, and the crooked characters couldn't make people understand what they were for!

Wouldn't Qiong'er find someone to add a comment?

Lin Daiyu stepped up as if giving up, walked to a seat by the window, lowered her head and was silently angry with her second brother, and decided to bully him to relieve her anger after returning home.

Today's weather is exceptionally good, the sunlight coming in from the open window just falls on Lin Daiyu's body, it is extremely warm and beautiful on this spring morning.Lin Daiyu's body was warm, and the little resentment in her heart quickly disappeared under the sun. She smelled the pleasant fragrance of ink, and she felt drowsy.

Chunjing and Chen Shou waited on the seats on the other side of the bookshelf. She knew that her girl didn't like being disturbed while reading, so she just waited in peace, not knowing that her girl was about to fall asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, a bookshelf at the back suddenly rustled, and then there was the sound of unhurried footsteps, walking slowly towards the south window.Lin Daiyu was in the sleepy stage, with her eyes half closed and her face facing the sun, as if she hadn't noticed it yet.

The sound of footsteps was steady and in line with the rules. After walking a dozen steps, there was a pause, and then it sounded again.

The sound that was getting closer finally made Lin Daiyu respond. She raised her half-drowned eyes and subconsciously glanced in the direction of the footsteps.

Yinzhen said, "Miss Lin."

Lin Daiyu paused for a moment, then remembered that the person in front of her was the fourth elder brother of the court, so she hurriedly saluted and greeted her.

Yinzhen put the book in his hand on a table casually: "Miss Lin, don't be polite." When he saw a girl sitting here just now, he wanted to leave, but when he saw it was Miss Lin, he came over up.The last time she praised her calligraphy, Yinzhen had to admit that he was a little proud, so he felt a little sympathy for Miss Lin, even though Miss Lin was only a little girl.

Lin Daiyu saw the heavenly book in his hand, and said in amazement: "Can fourth master understand it?" That one is too powerful.

Yinzhen rubbed his nose, really didn't want to admit it: "No, I can only understand a little bit." Most of them still don't understand.

"That's great too."

Yinzhen wondered, "Miss Lin, don't you understand?"

Lin Daiyu was very frank: "I don't understand at all."

Yinzhen looked at Lin Daiyu with some doubts, and said, "It was the younger brother who said that foreigners' learning has its merits. I think it makes sense, so I started to learn." The younger brother is quite proficient in foreigners. He also knows some foreign languages, saying that his sister taught him.

The junior brother is called Lin Qiong.

Lin Qiong couldn't have imagined that in ancient times when men and women could not get along with each other, his house sister, who stayed at home, would run into Fourth Master wherever he went. He just thought that his sister was knowledgeable and talented, so he conveniently pushed the fact that he knew foreign languages to her.

Lin Daiyu didn't know that she sold her brother: "It makes sense."

Lin Daiyu smiled a lot: "It seems that I have to study hard to understand these books."

Yinzhen nodded: "The books here are not only in one language, but also in English, French, and Latin. Except for some nihilistic gods, their research on Gewu is very reasonable, and even I have never read it. heard about it."

Lin Daiyu looked at him seriously.

Yinzhen continued: "Someone put forward a theory, he said that the place we step on is called the earth, and it is a sphere that revolves around the sun."

"That's really unbelievable." Lin Daiyu thought for a while and realized that it was really possible, so she smiled, "What else?"

Yinzhen said: "I have just started to learn, and I only know a little bit." Since he only knows a little bit of Western studies, he refuses to show off just by saying a word.

Lin Daiyu nodded, and joked with a smile: "It turns out that Fourth Master only has half a bottle of ink."

Yinzhen immediately retorted: "Fifty steps laugh at a hundred steps?"

"How can you say that?" Lin Daiyu wondered, "I don't understand this at all. Fourth Master thinks highly of me when he says fifty steps."

Yinzhen laughed, so Lin Daiyu once again saw the little canine teeth exposed by the fourth master's broken work.

Under Lin Daiyu's surprised gaze, Yinzhen slowly pursed his lips, slightly annoyed at his gaffe just now.

Yinzhen was so dizzy that he recognized foreign languages, he sat down at a seat not far from Lin Daiyu at random, closed his eyes slightly and rubbed his temples.Lin Daiyu sat upright with her eyes downcast, speechless for a moment.

But the two of them were so relatively silent, and there was no embarrassment at all, which seemed to be a matter of course.

Lin Daiyu waited for a while, and felt that it was neither too early nor too late, so she said: "I have something to do at home, please let me go."

Yinzhen smiled and said, "Miss Lin, walk slowly."

Lin Daiyu let out a breath, and walked lightly towards the stairs.

Coincidentally, Lin Daiyu had just called Chunjing and hadn't reached the stairs yet, following her footsteps, a person came down from the fourth floor, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the eighth elder brother.The fourth floor is a special private seat for dignitaries. Naturally, there is also a reserved seat for Lin Daiyu, but she has not been there yet.

Lin Daiyu was busy paying respects, and Yinhu smiled and said, "Miss Lin, what a coincidence." He greeted Lin Daiyu first, and then raised his voice slightly: "Fourth brother, I have to go."

Yinzhen responded, and after a while, he turned around the bookshelf with two books in his hand, and walked towards this side.

There was another burst of footsteps upstairs, and a group of people came down, and the one in the middle was Lord Kangxi.

I don't know if it's because she didn't read the almanac when she went out. Lin Daiyu met a nobleman again, so she had no choice but to greet her.

Kangxi laughed and said, "Daiyu from the Lin family, I didn't expect you to be such an unconventional person, you dare to come here to hang out." Although the reading hall blatantly welcomes women, if it is not a brave girl, I really dare not come here.

Lin Daiyu said: "I was just passing by, and I got a little curious, so I came up to have a look."

There was a girl slightly older than Lin Daiyu next to Kangxi, who snatched Kangxi's words: "Your name is Lin Daiyu? I've heard of you." She thought for a while, and added: "I'm Wen Ke."

When Kangxi came out in micro-service this time, besides the eighth princess, there were also a group of eighth princess's brothers, the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang, the fourth elder brother, the eighth elder brother, the ninth elder brother, the tenth elder brother, and the fourteenth elder brother.

Lin Daiyu heard that she knew it was the Eighth Princess Wen Ke, and greeted her again, saying: "My servant Lin Daiyu greets the Eighth Princess."

Wen Ke ran to Lin Daiyu, touched her hand, stroked her hair, and said excitedly: "You are so beautiful, I like you very much, I will come and play with you later, okay? Or you come to play with me? I It's very boring on weekdays, so the emperor finally agreed to take me out once." She said a lot like a machine gun.

Lin Daiyu had never seen such a candid girl before, and said with a smile: "The princess has said so much, but how can I ask my maidservant to respond?"

Kangxi said with a smile: "Since we hit it off, we can naturally see each other more." He stroked his beard and gave Yinzhen a meaningful look.

Yinxiang waved to Wen Ke and said, "Don't be frizzy, scaring other girls."

Wen Ke was not convinced: "Why am I so irritable, how could I scare her? Brother Thirteen is really bad."

Lin Daiyu knew that these people were of high status, so she didn't dare to say anything except for her questioning, she seemed very respectful and polite.Kangxi was about to leave the reading library, so he said: "Since Wen Ke is destined to be with the little girl of the Lin family, I will let you play with Miss Lin today, but don't forget to go back to the palace before you drop the spoon." Wen Ke agreed with a smile, and took Lin Daiyu Very intimate appearance.

Lin Daiyu said goodbye to everyone in Kangxi, and took Wen Ke back home.

Lin Daiyu didn't talk much at the beginning, but Wen Ke talked a lot. Don't be afraid of being left alone. When the carriage arrived at Lixiangyuan, the two called each other Guiming. Lin Daiyu also called herself "I" instead of "servant", and gradually talked more.

Wen Ke got off the carriage and was very surprised: "Yu'er, your yard is so small."

Lin Daiyu said helplessly: "My brothers and I are now borrowing at my grandmother's house. The Lixiangyuan is not small."

"Okay." Wen Ke looked at the scattered snow-white flowers of the pear trees planted all over the courtyard, and couldn't help but reach out to pick up a piece, "It's a bit small, but it's very delicate."

Lin Daiyu smiled and said: "When my father returns to Beijing, we will move back to our own home, and I invite you to come."

Wen Ke quickly tilted his head and emphasized: "You must remember!"

Lin Daiyu nodded heavily.

At noon, Lin Daiyu stayed with Wen Ke for dinner. Wen Ke was very interested in the Huaiyang cook of Lin's family. He ate a lot and said it was delicious.When she eats in the palace, a crowd of people watch her, and she corrects her manners from time to time, not to mention not eating too much, she is simply suffocated. Therefore, what makes Wen Ke happy is not the cooking skills of the Lin family, but the feeling.

It wasn't until it was getting late in the afternoon that Wen Ke reluctantly went back and made an appointment with Lin Daiyu to meet next time.

As soon as Wen Ke was sent away, the three brothers Lin Xiang also came back. As soon as the tree slave returned home, he threw himself into Lin Daiyu's arms and acted like a baby. Lin Daiyu was very funny and had to be coaxed.

After the tree slave finished complaining, he said: "Sister, sister, the tree slave is hungry and wants to eat candy."

Lin Daiyu said: "Don't be too busy, it's only two quarters before it's time for dinner, my sister found you a playmate today, let him play with you, okay?"

The tree slave pouted: "No, the tree slave wants a sister."

Zijuan led Chen Shou into the house, the tree slave saw the little guy who was about the same size as himself, his eyes lit up immediately, he moved down from Lin Daiyu's arms, ran to Chen Shou on short legs and said, "You are so short! What's that pout on your head? Why don't I have one?"

Chen Shoudai was in a daze, he was questioned by the white and fat doll in front of him, he didn't know what to do for a while, he let go of Zijuan's hand and knelt down, following what Zijuan taught: "Greetings to the third master!" .”

The tree slave frowned, and ran back to Lin Daiyu, whispering in a very small voice: "Sister, he looks a little stupid, I speak for him, but he doesn't answer."

Lin Daiyu poked the tree slave's bulging cheeks: "His name is Chen Shou, and he will be yours from now on. If he is stupid, you can teach him to be smart. If he is still stupid, then you, a stupid master, can't teach him. "

The tree slave seemed to understand and nodded, and then retorted: "The tree slave is not stupid."

"Then teach your people well."

Shu Nu didn't want to be called stupid by his sister, so he hurriedly said that he would teach Chen Shou well.Lin Daiyu said: "It's good to be determined, but you should wake him up."

Shu Nu nodded, imitating his elder brother, nodded slightly and said: "Chen Shou, get up." The small appearance was so proud and dignified, and the voice was so immature that Lin Daiyu couldn't help pinching his cheek.

The tree slave was annoyed: "Sister! Don't pinch it!"

Lin Daiyu grinned: "The little tree slave also knows how to save face."

The tree slave was ashamed, a little embarrassed that his elder sister had seen through Xingzang.He really felt just now that his sister pinched his face in front of his servant, which made him very undignified.

Lin Qiong sneered and said: "He knows how to save face. I ate a whole plate of dim sum from Master's house today. I didn't see him ashamed. You see, he is getting fatter and fatter, little fat tree slave."

The tree slave was furious: "Second brother! How could this be so? I agreed not to tell my sister!"

Lin Qiong rolled her eyes: "Did I agree?"

"You said my sister wouldn't expose the tree slave when she asked!"

Lin Qiong smiled: "That's right, did my sister ask?" He clearly confessed on his own initiative.

The tree slave curled his lips, resentful: "Second brother bullied me again..."

"Who made you stupid, stupid and fat."
